The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

The Han Chinese man in the Tibetan robe clenched his fists and snorted coldly, "Dare to ruin my plans, huh!"

He had just witnessed Pang Shiwu and his men slaughtering Tibetan soldiers through the gap in the curtain. "That black-clad youth is quite powerful, far surpassing the Ninth Realm, but he's not a threat! However... his Blood Rain Fragrance Sword is a problem... it can suppress my combat power! But... so what if it's a realm higher? I'll still crush him! As for that white-clad monk... he seems to be from the Great Bright Temple. Since the old hag has turned against me, I'll eliminate him too! As for that young swordsman who uses the Huashan Sword Technique, he's nothing but a Ninth Realm ant. Let him be buried with him!"

He peeked through the crack in the door into the distance. "That alluring little girl holding the Seven Deadly Demonic Zither is probably Xiong Qiangu's granddaughter! Xiong Qiangu would never give the Seven Deadly Demonic Zither to an outsider! The boy next to her holding the Great Compassionate Bow must be Duanmu Yan, the adopted son of the Bright Venerable. He's grown so tall in ten years! But his skills are only so-so, just at the ninth realm. And that guy flying on a sword is most likely from the Shu Mountain Sect! How did they all end up together?"

He glanced at it a few more times and noticed something amiss. "Well, these two lads have their eyes on the Xiong family girl!" He narrowed his eyes. "Who is that young man in white? He must have just used the Shrinking Earth to an Inch technique! That's a closely guarded secret of Longhu Mountain! What's his relationship with that Taoist priest surnamed Zhang?"

If Feng Jiuxiao were wearing a Taoist robe, he would assume that Feng Jiuxiao was Hong Jitong, a disciple of Longhu Mountain! But Feng Jiuxiao wasn't wearing a Taoist robe, which meant he wasn't a Taoist, which puzzled the Han man in the Tibetan robe! How could he not be surprised that an outsider was proficient in martial arts that only Taoists of Longhu Mountain, or even only a few masters of Longhu Mountain, could access?
Venerable White Lotus said, "Young Master, this time the six great families have been completely eradicated!"

Feng Jiuxiao shook his head, "No, there's still one fish that slipped through the net!"

Venerable White Lotus was immediately taken aback, then suddenly realized: "Wei Jinhui?"

"Not bad!"

Wei Jinbeak is the only patriarch among the six great families to escape, and also the only one to slip through the net among all the noble members of the six great families!
"Don't worry, young master, he can't escape. Although our Great Bright Temple doesn't have much of a foundation in the Central Plains, it still has a lot of power in Tibet!" Disciples of the Great Bright Temple are everywhere in Qing Tang City! His kill order has been issued, so all the checkpoints and routes in and out of Qing Tang City are under the surveillance of the Great Bright Temple!
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Fine! I believe you! I want to see you alive or dead!" This head of the Wei family must die! If he makes a comeback, it means that the serfs who were just rescued will once again be reduced to beasts of burden, and the nightmare will begin again!
"So... what's our next step...?"

"Let's eat first. The fish is all grilled, it would be a waste not to eat it. After we finish eating, let's go to the island!"

Venerable White Lotus looked troubled: "Young master, although the lake is frozen, the ice is too thin. While it may not be difficult for you, I'm afraid this humble monk will not be able to pass through!"

The ice is too thin to withstand being trampled on!

Even if he used the Dragonfly Skimming Water technique, his true energy couldn't last more than a thousand feet! And the closest point of Haixin Mountain to the shore was two thousand feet away. The number of people in the entire world who could use their true energy to "cross the water and fly to Haixin Mountain" was extremely small!
Almost everyone believed that, apart from Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain, there was no other person in the world who could fly across Haixin Mountain in one breath!

If the Demon Lord doesn't die, then there will be "only two"!
As for the newly rising Feng Jiuxiao, although his combat power is amazing and his lightness skill is unparalleled, almost no one believes that he can fly more than two thousand feet on the water in one breath!
It is said that Yan Honghu, who was once the best young martial artist in the world, crossed the Yangtze River twice in one breath. On his third flight, he became unsteady on his feet and had to land on a fishing boat in the river!

For hundreds of years, no one has been able to surpass the record set by Yan Honghu!

The goal of a master of light-body skills is to jump higher, leap farther, run faster, and land more lightly!
In actual combat, agile and quick movement is a life-saving talisman! Not only can it help you dodge the opponent's fast and powerful attacks through quick movement, but it can also increase the probability of hitting the target with a single blow by relying on agile footwork. You can attack or defend, and superb lightness skills are the foundation of your invincibility!

Many scholars believe that martial artists rely on talent to learn lightness skills, making it extremely easy to learn. In fact, the opposite is true. Learning lightness skills is just like learning external martial arts; there are no shortcuts!
To break through, you must be able to endure boredom, loneliness, and hardship!
It's time-consuming, laborious, and mentally taxing!

Legend has it that decades ago, Hong Jitong, the top Khitan master of lightness skills, mastered a lightness skill that dominated Liaodong by using a "simple method"!
He became an apprentice at the age of five. On the first day, his master made him run while holding a sika deer calf and cross various obstacles, such as barricades, deep pits, and steep slopes!
Spring turned to autumn, the fawn grew bigger and heavier, while Hong Gil-dong's running and jumping speed and strength also increased! The training became increasingly difficult!
The height of the barricades kept increasing, the length of the water pit kept growing, and even the deep pit specifically designed for jumping training kept sinking, from half a foot at age five, to one foot at age six, two feet at age seven, five feet at age eight, and eight feet at age twelve! Every day, he would jump out of the pit hundreds of times while holding the fawn, until he could no longer jump!
Day after day, year after year, Hong Jitong gradually grew into a young man! Finally, one day, his master told him that he could put down the "little deer"! The little deer was now a hundred pounds heavy! After unloading this hundred pounds of "excess fat," he suddenly felt as light as a swallow!

At this moment, he ran wildly along the route he had been running for more than ten years, feeling lighter than ever before! He could now easily leap over the treetops of ancient trees that were ten feet high!

Such unparalleled lightness skill is the result of countless days and nights of hard training, countless drops of sweat, and astonishing perseverance, all of which combined to finally achieve mastery!

The most direct manifestation of this kind of lightness skill is the perfect display of "power" and "speed"! Faster, higher, farther! This is the method commonly practiced by orthodox martial arts sects! However, another type of lightness skill in the martial arts world emphasizes "lightness"! Landing silently, leaving no trace in the snow! This type of lightness skill is more suitable for those who like to engage in shady activities! Such as theft, assassination, or even prostitution! This type of lightness skill usually requires "gathering qi" to achieve "lightness of body," and has certain strict requirements for internal strength! The advantage of this kind of lightness skill is that the landing is gentle, and one can easily do something without disturbing others, but the disadvantage is that it "lacks sustained power," it is all about "one breath," and cannot be sustained! For example, one can perform a dragonfly skimming the water's surface, and how long one can "skim" the water depends on how long the person performing the lightness skill can hold their "breath"!
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Aren't there boats over there? Why don't we just row over?"

That boat can carry about ten people.

Bai Lian asked, "Young Master, who should get on the boat first?" There are seventeen of us who came together, so we should be ordered to arrive first, right?
Feng Jiuxiao said, "You, me, Fifteen, and Brother Wolf, the four of us can go. Brother Zeng can stay here and keep watch."

His original intention was to let Zeng Yong rest more on the shore. If something happened on the island and his wounds were to be torn open again, it would be a loss!

Bai Lian reminded him, "But... Zeng Yong has been waiting for quite a while now. He's gone through so much hardship to finally reach the foot of Mount Ling. It seems a bit... inappropriate, doesn't it?"

Feng Jiuxiao was taken aback. “What you said makes sense. But if he goes, Erni will also have to go. If Erni goes, Changjie will definitely have to get on the ship. If Changjie gets on the ship, how can we not let Zishan get on the ship? If Zishan gets on the ship, Chili will have to follow.”

Venerable White Lotus laughed and said, "Then let them all come up. There are nine people in total, which is just enough for everyone."

Feng Jiuxiao asked, "Will Helian Rongguang and the others be in danger if they stay behind?" He was worried that those martial arts figures might harm Helian Rongguang!

“They have no grudges against the heroes of the Central Plains martial arts world, so what danger could they pose? Besides, they don’t care about the Heavenly Roc Egg anyway, so it’s right for them to stay.”

Feng Jiuxiao thought for a moment, "If we use that boat, what will happen to Daoist Yichen and the others? What will they think of me?"

Venerable White Lotus was taken aback, thinking to himself: I am a member of the evil sect, you are a member of the righteous path. You have psychological burdens, but I don't!
But he wouldn't say that. He could only pretend to be deep in thought, pondering this thorny problem!

Pang Shiwu said, "Yes! Daoist Yichen hasn't broken his promise. It's definitely right for us to abandon them." He glanced around, "Just one fishing boat, isn't that a bit odd?"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "Yes, it's definitely not normal for such a large lake like Qinghai Lake to only have one boat!"

Pang Shiwu said, "If it were colder and the ice were thicker, we wouldn't have to worry about this problem!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Feng Jiuxiao laughed and said, "Fifteen, you're really something, your mouth has been blessed! If it snows tonight, the ice on the lake will definitely be thicker tomorrow!"

Pang Shiwu was overjoyed. "Wow, it really is snowing!"

Snowflakes are falling, which means the temperature is about to drop again! (End of Chapter)
