Chapter 489 The Second Sword Contest: A clash between veterans and newcomers! Another year. May 8th. Qishi Peak of Cangshan Mountain, at the foot of the mountain in the north. As the specific venue for the "Cangshan Sword Contest", "Qishi Peak" has long been famous throughout the fifteen states with the participation of the "Xiantian Master" Yan Chuang, the "Sword Master" Chen Ze, the "Overlord" Wang Zhengyi and other genius masters who participated in the first Cangshan Sword Contest. Countless geniuses are fascinated by it. until today. Finally at the foot of the mountain. The four sides of Qishifeng are different—— It is steep in the north, thick in the south, deep in the east, and beautiful in the west. Among them, the north side is famous for its "strange cliff", with a cliff thousands of feet high, crowned with clouds above, and connected to the ground below, like a knife cutting and sawing, it is steep and overhanging, which is daunting. Last year, the first Cangshan Sword Contest was held. The twelve arenas were set up on the Fairy Chess Stone on the top of the mountain, but the opening contest was held on the cliff to the north of the Chess Stone Peak. This was also the place where Yan Chuang, Wang Zhengyi and others first came to prominence.
"Look over there, that place has been hit. It was left when the 'Overlord' threw a huge rock to clear the way. I was there at the time. The ground collapsed and I almost thought that the Chess Stone Peak was going to collapse. It was like the end of the world." "'Overlord' Wang Zhengyi, he was famous for his unparalleled strength during the sword fight at Cangshan Mountain. Even His Majesty praised him as 'a truly unrivaled warrior.'" "'Xiantian Master' Yan Chuang likes to teach others. He is here, on that stone, explaining the Qinggong skills of the geniuses of the past." "Master Yan has set a bad example! There are too many people pointing and talking non-stop on the Shengzhou competition stage this time. Do you really think that all of them are Master Yan? Their nonsense is really laughable." "'Sword Lord' Chen Ze is the source of all evil! He has proved his truth in Cangshan Mountain, and his two-handed sword is famous all over the world. Countless people have tried to learn from him, but most of them failed and only a few have mastered it. But there is one in Aizhou, who uses the two-handed sword very smoothly. You can't beat him, really you can't beat him!" …… The geniuses gathered at the foot of Qishi Peak. Some of them had participated in the previous session, and they were all moved by the scene. Some are new members of this session, and they are all looking forward to it. They were 'down the mountain'. Talking about Yan Chuang, Wang Zhengyi, Chen Ze and others who have already "gone up the mountain" and are "on the mountain", one day and one place, it is inevitable to sigh. The second Cangshan Sword Contest also attracted more than a thousand geniuses, but the quality was much higher than the first session, but most of those who ranked at the bottom were self-aware - "It's too far to realize the innate truth." "This sword fight is not in vain, if I can become as famous as them in the fifteen states." Who are they? Look at the front row - 'Iron Judge' Peng Fanian! 'Half man, half ghost' class immortal Buddha! 'Kill and bury' Jing Bao! 'One Punch, Seven Injuries' Wang Ge! 'The Fastest Sword' Fu Yunzhan! The above are all the leading figures in the first sword contest, all of them are outstanding, and their real strength has made it to the list -
Acupuncture by Peng Fanian. Ban Xianfo's swordsmanship. Jing Bao's crescent shovel. Wang Ge’s fist. Fu Yunzhan's swordsmanship. Each of them has a story and a reputation. During this year, their performances in sword fighting spread throughout the fifteen states, and everyone talked about it with relish and was familiar with it. Each of them is a legendary figure, only known by storytellers. But at this moment, it is right in front of me. It's not just them. In the front row, there is—— Liu Xin (God-Chasing Sword), Ma Hongniang (White Bone Banner), Guo Xi (Golden Stick), Zhuge Zhen (Centipede Bee Bag), Cai Ru'an (Five-Colored Stone), Chi Gao (Water and Fire Blade). Each of these people holds a treasure and they once shined and became the center of attention in the first Cangshan Sword Contest. But this year—— "Without being allowed to use rare weapons and treasures, can these people still perform well in this session?" "They are coming here to bring shame upon themselves!" Many people are wondering, Liu Xin and others were able to shine in the first session only because of rare treasures, but the rules of the second session have changed, and the version has been changed. Can these people still stand out again? I'm afraid it's difficult. Look at the other people in this second session, there are those on the Hidden Dragon List - Feng Nandi, the 'Seven Star Champion' of Lei Ze Academy. Gao Changyi, the 'gun of death' of Tianpeng Academy. 'The master who is often defeated' Chai Hongshun. 'Opening up the mountains on the spot' Shi Qingke. Liu Zongwu, the 'Nine-Manifested Divine Sword' of the Yenching Academy. Yu Tai, the 'Exquisite Hands' of Xianyuan Academy. Dai Xiangfeng of 'Xiaowutong' in Bizhou. …… There is a "Young Phoenix List" - Black Hawk Sect, Jiyin Academy, 'Lang Fanyun' Shi Mingzhu.
Shen Xia, the 'Fire Fairy' of Xianyuan Academy. 'Red Shirt and Golden Sword' Sun Guifen. 'I'd rather die than suffer loss' Zhang Qin. Yenching Academy, 'Ten Thousand Miles of Clouds Chasing' Hong Ran. Licheng Academy, the 'omnipresent' Xiao Zhi. Chuqiu Academy, 'Lucky Star' Du Ying. …… Etc., etc. Too much too much. "Hidden Dragon" and "Young Phoenix" are full of masters. Even though Chen Ze, Yan Chuang, Situ Fei, Ding Xiang, Wang Zhengyi, and Ying Jifeng successively attained enlightenment. Even though Luo Qi, Tan Du, Wei Lingshan and Lu Yuru were absent from the second session. Even without these top figures on the double lists, there are still many talented people, and geniuses gathered - There are old brands that had an impressive performance in the first session and made a comeback a year later to go one step further. There are new talents who have gained fame in the past year and are coming on strong, for example, the 'two-pole boxing champions' among the 'Four Talents of Yan' under Yan Chuang - 'Tai Chi' Yu Jinpeng and 'Baji' Jin Yutang. Too much too much. There are countless. At this time, more than a thousand geniuses gathered at the northern foot of Qishi Peak. With the experience of the first session, everyone knew that the first stage of the "Cangshan Sword Contest" was about "cliff climbing", "lightness skills" and "body skills". For this reason, countless people have diligently practiced qinggong and cliff climbing skills in the past year. This year's sword competition will start with the appetizer of cliff climbing, which is bound to be more exciting. …… While everyone is discussing. Outside Qishifeng. Rumble! A 'Longluan' parted the clouds and mist, spanning the sky. The dragon carriage was ready, and the feathered guards were in line. There were hundreds of feathered guards on both sides of the huge dragon throne, but they were not ordinary people. Each of them had three heads and six arms, which was shocking. But after a closer look, I found that they were not human bodies, but armor. The armor was not made of gold or stone, but seemed to be made of wood. It was more than two meters high and could walk in the air. The three heads looked in all directions, and the six arms each held a weapon. This was not armor at all, but clearly an ancient version, a martial arts version, a mythological version - "Mecha!" The 'three-headed and six-armed mecha' is already shocking when you pick it out alone. At this time, hundreds of horses were displayed in the sky, arranged in an array, guarding Long Luan. It was even more shocking and beyond words.
At least. Down the mountain. The group of geniuses looked up in complete silence. …… The power of the gods in the sky. The heroes at the foot of the mountain were shocked. Rumble! After pushing away the clouds and mist, a divine guard strode forward, with six arms spread out in front of his body and two hands spreading out the royal list. His voice was like thunder, resounding in all directions—— "All the heroes will follow the order and set off to climb the cliff later. The one who climbs first will be the champion of the twelve arenas." “When climbing, everyone shows off their abilities.” “When climbing, you can’t help but use force.” "It is strictly forbidden to use any rare weapons or treasures in this sword fight. Each of you can take one weapon before departure." Shenwu preaches. Just like the previous session, the first person to reach the top will become the champion, and no special weapons or treasures are allowed. However, this time, not only are they not allowed to be used when climbing the cliff, but they are also not allowed to use them afterwards in the arena. This is a complete competition of real physical strength. The command comes from heaven. The heroes are moving at the foot of the mountain. The second Cangshan Sword Contest officially kicked off. cloud. "See Your Majesty!" On top of the dragon lantern, there was a man with a long beard and yellow robe, with a handsome appearance. He walked out and came through the air. He was the number one in the "Weapons Manual·Tianbang"—— 'Yanhuang' Yingtianxing! Most of the warriors on the mountain top were middle-aged and old men, about twenty of them, bowing to the "Emperor Yan", some with respectful expressions, some with casual demeanor. At the second Cangshan Sword Contest, there were even slightly more grandmasters watching than the first. However, the three people who were present at the first contest, Jiang Bianliu, Huang Wuniang, and Tan Yunqing, all followed Yan Chuang and were in Tan Valley, so they did not participate. There are many familiar faces—— For example, Linghu Gan, the thirteenth Minister of Revenue in the "Heavenly List", is the person who gave Yan Chuang the "treasure bowl". For example, He Hao, the eighteenth director of the Mountain and Sea Division on the "Heavenly List", once led Yan Chuang to the Mountain and Sea Realm to take over the Tan Gu Royal City, and also led Yan Chuang and others into the Tianti City. Another example is Tian Jing, who is ranked 34th on the Heavenly Ranking, "Know-it-all". He has a deeper connection with Yan Chuang, but they have been drifting apart recently. However, after practicing the "Tiyunzong" and "Yitian Tulonggong" given by Yan Chuang, his strength has greatly improved, and his ranking has also improved greatly. These people are all people Yan Chuang has dealt with before. In addition, there are those who I have never dealt with, such as Yang Wang, one of the four Dharma Kings of the Black Hawk Sect, 'White-browed Eagle King', Qian Lingyi, one of the four elders of the Dian Cang Sect, 'Sword Shadow', Hui Zhenzi, one of the three saints of the Wuji Palace, 'Flying in the Sky', Xin Zhuang, one of the eight Vajras of the Baxiang Mountain, 'Stele Smasher', Mingchan, one of the three great monks of the Manichaeism Temple, 'Holy Hand Tathagata', and Mr. Zhong, one of the five friends of the Iron Cloth Sect, 'Hidden Sword Immortal'.
There is also the owner of Qinghu Manor, Wu Yu, who is known as the "Ghost and God Shocker", and the second lord of Wushan City, Gongsun Diying, one of the "Wushan Twins" and the "Cloud Hand". Each of them is an old acquaintance from the first class. In addition, there is a congenital boss from the imperial court—— Six! Six divisions! Forbidden army! The Fifth Army Commander's Mansion! The bigwigs from various departments of the Great Yan court gathered together, which is a rare event that happens once a year. Emperor Yan arrives. Everyone salutes. Ying Tianxing smiled and said, "None of the young people are here." indeed. The last year and the newcomers in the past year—— Chen Ze, Yan Chuang, Situ Fei, Wang Zhengyi, Ding Xiang, Ying Jifeng. None of them came. "It's a new and exciting time for young people to be promoted to the innate level. I can understand that they are traveling around the world." Ying Tianxing was happy for the emergence of many innate people and geniuses who had achieved enlightenment in Dayan, but at the same time, his majesty was inevitably disappointed that no genius who had achieved enlightenment came to this sword contest. Like an elderly widow who longs for his children to return, but never gets them. "Everyone is busy." "Be busy!" Emperor Yan could not hide his disappointment. aside. He Haolang, the Chief of the Department of Mountains and Seas, said: "Yesterday, Luo Qi observed the tides and played the flute, and attained enlightenment. He became the seventh genius to attain enlightenment in the first sword contest. He is the fiftieth Grandmaster of Dayan. I congratulate your majesty and Dayan!" He Hao is in charge of the Shanhai Division and knows the most about the situation in the Shanhai Realm, especially his own people. Roach preached yesterday. He Hao received the news that day. "Roche?" "Roche also attained enlightenment?" "It's actually him!" "It's him! He failed to achieve enlightenment before, but his foundation is there. I have long predicted that the next person in the Eight Cities who will achieve enlightenment will be Luo Qi!"
"Is it that 'Big Foot' Luo Qi? I remember that he used the 'Ancient Heritage Harp' in the last session and played the music very well. I didn't expect that he would use the flute to prove his truth in the end." "Luo Qi! It's him! That's right! I heard that he almost achieved enlightenment in the Mountain and Sea Realm, but was interrupted by the Beast King. If Chen Ze and Yan Chuang hadn't rescued him, he would have died suddenly. He missed the opportunity at that time, and finally got it back after more than half a year!" "Tide!" "Hong Hai!" "Song of the Rising Tide of the Blue Sea!" "He also achieved enlightenment by practicing the unique skills that Yan Chuang had tailored for him in Honghai. Not long ago, the Third Prince—" …… A group of innate people were shocked. In the Shanhai Realm, Xiantian was not rare. A first-level god general was no better than a dog, and only a sixth-level god general could shake. But it was different in Dayan. Not counting the deceased Shen Gongtu, Dayan only had forty-nine Xiantians, and Luo Qi happened to be the fiftieth. Fifty innate! Very important! The birth of every innate master is enough to spark a topic. The first one was Chen Ze. After that, Yan Chuang and Situ Fei both testified. After that, Wang Zhengyi attained enlightenment. After that, Ding Xiang and Ying Jifeng both attained enlightenment. Every time it caused a sensation in the fifteen states of Dayan and attracted countless heated discussions. This time it was Roach. The people who preach are different, but they all involve one thing in common— "Yan Chuang!" …… (End of this chapter)
