I asked you to play a dungeon, why don't you just raise the BOSS here?

Chapter 269 The sword energy of more than twenty meters, reserved at Lanruo Temple (two-in-one)

In Lanruo Temple, two long swords collided together, and sword energy overflowed.

With a muffled groan, the two figures quickly retreated and faced each other from a distance.

"Xiahou, you lost again."

A big man with a bold look and a beard put his sword back into its sheath and laughed.

"Hmph! If you lose, just lose."

A middle-aged man wearing armor and holding a sharp sword frowned and said: "Yan Chixia, there is a stupid boy in the woods outside. He is clumsy."

His surname is Xia Minghou, which together looks like a quite ancient compound surname.

Xiahou's swordsmanship is very good, and he has always planned to defeat Yan Chixia and become "the best swordsman in the world".

It's just that Yan Chixia's Taoist skills are extraordinary, and her sword skills for slashing people are also extremely exquisite.

Xiahou has been tortured for seven years, defeated and defeated again and again...

After losing this time, Xia Hou actually didn't feel bad at all.

I’m used to losing anyway.

"Well, if you still have a cup of tea, it's time for that person to come in."

"It's probably a passerby who was chased by wolves outside and ran here in a daze."

Yan Chixia yawned: "Take him out by the way when you go out later, so that he won't lose his life in vain."

"baffling!"

Xia Hou's face darkened: "When did I say I was going out?"

"With all your efforts, staying here will lead to a dead end."

Yan Chixia waved her hand: "Listen to my brother's advice, the demon will not compete with you honestly."

"Hmph! Yan Chixia, after you have learned a few Taoist techniques, you no longer look down on the way of swordsmanship?"

Xia Hou sneered and said: "If we, the swordsmen, can practice our swordsmanship to the point of transcendence and sainthood, why should we be afraid of monsters and monsters?"

"What you said makes some sense, but it has nothing to do with you."

Yan Chixia wasn't angry either: "If he were an extraordinary swordsman who regarded fame and wealth as shit, he would definitely not come to trouble Yan just for the mere name of 'The Best Sword in the World'."

"Nonsense!"

Xiahou immediately broke through his defense, and with a flick of his sword, he was ready to strike again.

"The outcome has been decided. To continue the fight would be a rogue act."

Yan Chixia said disdainfully: "You have a bit of a reputation, so you won't be entangled in it, right?"

"Hmph! Huh?"

Xia Hou glanced at the temple door subconsciously.

Not knowing what he saw, Xia Hou suddenly froze, and there was a hint of horror in his eyes.

"Hahaha! You were at a loss for words after what Yan said, so you planned to use the trick of 'there is someone behind your back' to get back the situation."

Yan Chixia laughed loudly: "Do you really think Yan is a three-year-old child?"

"no……"

Xia Hou swallowed with some difficulty: "Look back..."

"No!"

"Yan Chixia, are you sick?"

Xia Hou was so angry that his chest tightened: "Sooner or later, you will die because of your mouth."

"Are you so serious? Okay, Yan will look back."

Yan Chixia was stunned for a moment, turned around lazily, and looked back.

Standing at the gate of Lanruo Temple was an elegant and elegant young man.

The man was wearing a scholar's robe, smiling playfully, looking at him with interest.

Next to the scholar stood a woman wearing a bamboo hat.

The woman is dressed in white like snow, which makes her figure even more exquisite.

Three thousand green hairs as black as ink flowed down like a waterfall, faintly revealing a bit of nobility that was difficult to conceal.

"..."

Yan Chixia rubbed her eyes subconsciously and fell silent.

With his cultivation, even if monsters and monsters appear, he can predict them in advance.

But now that he clearly saw these two people, he still couldn't sense each other's aura.

After Yan Chixia became successful in cultivation, she had never encountered such an outrageous thing.

"You...are you two humans or ghosts?"

Seeing Yan Chixia's dull look, Xiahou clenched his sword and shouted sharply.

His reaction was quite quick.

The moment he saw these two people, Xia Hou completely spread his energy and turned it into a dense network of air in the void.

Even if a cockroach crawled across the hall, it couldn't be hidden from him.

But these layers of aura nets were unable to lock the position of the man and woman in front of him at all.

It was as if the man and woman in front of him did not exist in this world at all.

Xia Hou had some doubts. This was the legendary state of martial arts where "the whole body has no leakage and forms a world of its own".

But now martial arts has long declined.

Xia Hou really didn't want to accept that there were still people in this world who could practice martial arts to this level.

It’s better to be more comfortable mentally after seeing a ghost.

"Brother Yan just used the action of rubbing his eyes to secretly use Taoism's spiritual power to understand our identities."

Lin Xuan smiled faintly: "If Xiahou Swordsman has any doubts, he should ask Brother Yan."

Speaking of which, the magical sword contained in the sword box behind Yan Chixia is called "Xuanyuan Divine Sword", and it is extremely powerful against demons.

Probably due to this influence, the male protagonist of "Xuanyuan Sword One" released a few years later was named Yan Chixia (the second generation changed her name to He Ran), and he was also the first Xuanyuan Sword user to appear.

The overall strength is not bad. Although it is not as good as non-human beings such as Yuwen Tuo and Seth, it is much stronger than Murong Shi and his like.

Among all the Xuanyuan Swordsmen of the past, it can be considered to be an above-average level.

Lin Xuan didn't know whether the space would sew this setting, but it wasn't too overwhelming.

"Huh? Your Excellency also knows us two?"

Xiahou's expression softened slightly and he looked at Yan Chixia: "Yan Chixia, do you have a question?"

"Yan really can't see the evil spirit..."

Yan Chixia took a deep breath, cupped her fists and said, "My lord, Yan Chixia, may I ask who you two are?"

He seems careless, but in fact he is very thoughtful.

When I was rubbing my eyes just now, I secretly used my clairvoyance to get a glimpse of reality.

As a result, when he used his magical power, the man opposite him cooperated very cooperatively to stimulate his energy and blood.

Yan Chixia felt a wave of blood rushing towards her face, and the surroundings were filled with flaming blood.

The entire ancient temple hall seemed to be on fire.

That woman was also extremely outrageous.

Yan Chixia glanced at it and saw only an extremely rich golden light, which almost blinded him.

Yan Chixia was so frightened that she quickly stopped casting the spell.

This is a bit outrageous!

To say that it is a monster, there is indeed no trace of evil spirit.

But if a master of martial arts has boiling blood and can deeply concentrate his energy and move in and out of sight...

It's theoretically possible.

But Yan Chixia has never seen such a person.

"give it to you……"

Ao Xue felt a little uncomfortable being stared at.

She thought about it and felt that it was obviously not a monster, so it would be a bit bad to kill it directly.

In desperation, she had no choice but to tug on Lin Xuan's sleeves and quietly hide behind the doorpost.

"I'm Lin Xuan, a scholar who is proficient in boxing and kicking. I just used some light-weight skills."

Lin Xuan smiled, cupped his hands and said, "Miss Bai is my companion. She has always been timid and shy, so don't blame me."

"It turns out that it's Mr. Lin and Miss Bai who are proficient in fists and feet and timid..."

Yan Chixia was speechless for a while, rolled her eyes, and asked again: "Okay, you two are mysterious and unpredictable, and you are indeed a master."

Although he didn't know whether Ao Xue was a human or not.

But he also understood that this girl's cultivation level was not lower than his.

This person can be timid and fearful, but he is also quite capable...

Yan Chixia felt that she couldn't do it.

"Master Yan is a master of swordsmanship, and Swordsman Xiahou is also very good at swordsmanship. I admire you."

Lin Xuan smiled and boasted to each other.

"Huh? Mr. Lin, are you also proficient in swordsmanship?"

Xia Hou's face suddenly darkened and he was a little unhappy.

Yan Chixia is a master of both swordsmanship and swordsmanship, but when it comes to me, she is "good at practicing swordsmanship"?
This level gap is a bit too big, right?

Well, my swordsmanship is indeed not as good as Yan Chixia's, and I don't know magic either...

But as a swordsman, I just have to be humble.

You don't even have a sword on your back, yet you come here chattering?
"I can't say I'm proficient, I just know a little bit."

Lin Xuan glanced at Xia Hou and said calmly.

This Xiahou swordsman is addicted to martial arts and is very utilitarian, and he cares about fame.

He is also ruthless in killing, but he never kills innocent people indiscriminately, and he is also quite friendly to ordinary people.

Lin Xuan remembered that in the movie, he was robbed of money by bandits, killed them all along the way, and even gave a steamed bun to Ning Caichen who was passing by to fill his stomach.

Overall, he can be considered a somewhat chivalrous swordsman.

Otherwise, Yan Chixia wouldn't have fought him again and again, but never killed him.

Unfortunately, pure swordsmanship is not suitable for this world view.

Lin Xuan remembered that this guy's end was not very good either.

It seems that in Lanruo Temple, when I was having fun with Nie Xiaoqian, I was sucked into a human by the tree demon grandma using a tree vine...

The strange thing is that after this guy became a mummy, he still wanted to compete with Yan Chixia.

That time Yan Chixia was not polite, and a fire talisman killed him cleanly.

It can be seen that Taoist magical powers have a crushing advantage over ordinary martial arts masters.

On the contrary, a new Taoist priest like Zhi Qiu Yiye is half-baked in Taoism and his martial arts skills are not very good.

On the contrary, you can fight the big monster freely.

It can be seen that choice is greater than effort...

"Mr. Lin, I know you have some magical powers, but if you don't know the way of the sword, you still... huh?"

Xia Hou's face changed slightly: "You said you also know swordsmanship?"

Although he was a little unhappy, his reason told him not to be reckless!

If you can reason, don't do anything.

After all, a man and a woman alone would dare to come here.

It must be able to cast spells.

I definitely can’t bear it myself!

"I just understand a little bit."

"Okay, let's not talk about swordsmanship for now."

Yan Chixia frowned slightly: "Mr. Lin, I wonder why you two came here in the middle of the night?"

"I can't talk to you about it."

Lin Xuan said calmly: "I heard that there are demons and ghosts here. We see injustice on the road, so we came here to slay the demons."

Everyone is not a fool, there is no need to hide this kind of thing.

"Destroying demons? I also heard in the county that ghosts are rampant here, so I came here specifically to see it."

Xia Hou sneered: "But there are only a few of us here, and not even a ghost appears."

"Xiahou, this place seems peaceful, but there is indeed an evil spirit lingering around, and the ghosts are hard to disperse."

"I've seen it before with my clairvoyance, but unfortunately I couldn't find the hiding place of the monster."

Yan Chixia muttered: "Young master Lin is an expert in this world. I would rather believe that he has something than that that he doesn't have."

"Since you said so, I want to see it."

Xia Hou felt slightly guilty and closed his mouth.

His swordsmanship is excellent, but when it comes to subduing demons and slaying demons, his expertise is indeed inappropriate.

If you insist on speaking harshly, it will be a bit of a slap in the face if a vixen or something comes out later...

"It's a good thing to destroy demons."

Yan Chixia smiled and said: "Since Yan has bumped into me, I am willing to help you two."

"Brother Yan, do you really think so?"

"This is natural."

"Well, I do have a merciless request. I want Brother Yan to help."

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "There is Mr. Ning behind us, who is coming with us."

"Well, Yan heard what he was saying."

Yan Chixia asked doubtfully: "Is Mr. Ning also a peerless master?"

"That's not true. As far as I know, he doesn't understand martial arts."

"...You two want to slay demons, but you also bring an ordinary person here. Is there something wrong?"

"There is indeed something wrong. Please take him out when you two leave, so that he will not lose his life in vain."

Lin Xuan said with a smile: "You two have helped us so much, we can just focus on making sure that the monster never comes back."

Tasks related to Nie Xiaoqian are a bit troublesome to complete, and you need to communicate with Nie Xiaoqian.

Lin Xuan didn't know how to explain his motives to Yan Chixia, a bearded man.

Since Yan Chixia's fighting power is not needed, it is better to send him away earlier.

As for Xia Hou, he is much weaker than Yan Chixia.

If you really encounter a monster, 80% of it will be a burden.

If you don't care, you might be eaten by monsters to restore your health...

It would be best for everyone if he left as soon as possible. "Huh? You mean to let us go?"

Yan Chixia was startled, looking a little confused.

Ever since he learned supernatural powers, he has definitely become one of the top figures in the world.

In normal times, if someone offered him a thousand taels of gold to help him, he might not even pay attention.

But now he plans to eliminate demons on his own initiative...

As a result, the other party actually thought that he was holding him back, and found himself a bodyguard job.

In Yan Chixia's ranger career, she has never encountered anything like this.

"Hahaha, Lao Yan, we have been underestimated!"

Xia Hou's eyes flashed fiercely and he sneered.

"Master Lin has a good cultivation level, so he must not bother to join forces with others."

Yan Chixia said coldly: "In that case, it doesn't matter if Yan leaves for a few days."

"Thank you, Master Yan, for your help."

"Mr. Lin, you look down on swordsmanship just because you know some magic?"

Xia Hou sneered: "I'll stay here and won't go anywhere! Don't worry, I have a sword in my hand, and ghosts and gods can't invade. I don't need your help."

"If you practice swordsmanship to the point of transcendence and sainthood, you can indeed slay demons."

Lin Xuan said calmly: "But Brother Xia's swordsmanship is still a little behind, so I think it's better to leave."

"You said I'm not good at swordsmanship?"

"If you want to slay demons, it's a little short of the mark."

"Okay! You just said that you also know some swordsmanship. Can you kill demons?"

"It should be possible."

Lin Xuan's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly.

Judging from the performance of Zuo Qianhu in the second part...

Demons and monsters of this level must not be physically immune.

Since Zuo Qianhu can kill demons, his sword energy should also be able to break through defenses.

If that doesn't work, you can still let Ao Xue amplify the mighty Tianlong...

"It's just right. I would like to learn some sword skills with you."

"If I'm defeated, I won't be able to stay. I'll just follow the master's orders."

Xiahou said coldly: "If the young master is not good at swordsmanship, can you bow to my sword?"

"Of course this is possible, but my swordsmanship is a bit overbearing and may hurt the sword in Brother Xia's hand."

"The sword has no eyes. If it hurts, it hurts."

Xia Hou sneered: "Master Lin, do you have a sword? Do you want Master Yan to lend you one?"

"If you really know how to sword..."

Yan Chixia laughed and said, "It's okay to lend you the long sword in Yan's hand."

"I still brought it."

Lin Xuan reached out and took out the golden sword from the storage space.

With a flick of the finger, the sword makes a dragon roar!

Seeing that it was getting late, it was better to hurry up and send these two tough men away.

What if a group of female ghosts come to be the audience later...

That scene was still a bit embarrassing.

"Where did this sword come from..., eh? What a great sword!"

Xia Hou was stunned for a moment, with a hint of envy in his eyes.

When a swordsman sees a famous sword, it's like a groupie sees a star, or an otaku sees the wife of a two-thorned ape...

I can't hold it at all.

"Brother Xia please."

"it is good!"

Xia Hou's long sword was unsheathed, and the light of the sword was like lightning, piercing Lin Xuan's throat.

The Tai Chi sword seal appeared, and the golden sword light streaked through the void.

Lin Xuan stabbed out with his sword, and the golden sword collided with Xia Hou's long sword impartially.

Under the collision of energies, the sound of Qingyue's shattering continued to sound.

The whole long sword in Xiahou's hand exploded and fell to the ground with a clanking sound.

"How can it be!"

Xiahou was shocked, jumped up quickly with a backflip, and fell backwards.

The golden light flashed again.

Lin Xuan did not move, but the tip of the golden sword erupted with a sword light several feet long, and it directly pressed against Xiahou's throat.

"This……"

He felt the sword intent against his throat, sharp enough to cut through gold and jade.

Xia Hou's face turned pale, and he stood on the ground obediently, not daring to move at all.

"My grass!"

Yan Chixia took a deep breath, her head filled with questions.

Based on his knowledge, he can still tell that this is not a magic technique, but a real sword energy...

However, this sword energy is really too much.

Yan Chixia felt that she had performed well if she swung a two-meter-long sword light.

But the sword energy in front of me is five or six feet long...

Ten times longer than myself!

It's much thicker than me!

It's as luxurious as if you can't use up all your internal energy!
With such swordsmanship, why not learn Mao’s spells!
Oh, he claims to know a little bit about swordsmanship...

What the hell is the concept of mastering swordsmanship? Can a sword separate mountains and seas?

"Brother Xia accepted."

Seeing the bleak look on Xia Hou's face, Lin Xuan withdrew his sword light and said with a smile: "Brother Xia, please act according to the agreement."

"This is natural!"

"To be honest, ever since the whereabouts of Mr. Golden Snake Master was unknown and the head of Huashan Mountain, the 'Sword Immortal Ape' sealed his sword, I thought that only Yan Chixia in the world could fight with me."

"Even if Wudang is an enigmatic and mysterious Taoist, I have never taken him seriously."

Xia Hou's eyes were full of excitement, and he sighed: "But I didn't expect that Mr. Lin's sword was so exquisite, and I am not alone!"

Lin Xuan's sword opened the door to a new world for him.

Xia Hou discovered for the first time that swordsmanship was so promising!
Others are only in their twenties and can swing a twenty-meter sword.

In theory, you can do it yourself!

It seems that in the past, it was just a lack of vision that limited the pattern!

Now the new goal has been set!
The more Xia Hou thought about it, the happier he became, as if he saw himself swinging a forty-meter sword.

"Huh? Wait a minute."

Lin Xuan's thoughts moved slightly: "What is the name of the Wudang Traveling Master that Brother Xia just mentioned?"

After hearing about Golden Snake Langjun and Divine Sword Immortal Ape, Lin Xuan was basically sure that it also involved the world view of the Blue Blood Sword.

Well, Yuan Chengzhi, the protagonist of Blue Blood Sword, is the son of Yuan Chonghuan. He is indeed from this era, which is understandable.

But Wudang is not mentioned at all in Jade Blood Sword...

Now, Xia Hou mentioned another "traveling Taoist", which made Lin Xuan somewhat confused about the situation.

What kind of messy stuff is sewn here?

"I don't know what to call the old Taoist. I just heard that the old Taoist appeared on Wudang Mountain overnight. His martial arts skills are extremely strong and his actions are even more unpredictable."

"But everyone in Wudang is very taboo about its origins, as if there is some big secret..., huh?"

Xia Hou was stunned and added: "I feel ashamed to say that I have never heard of Mr. Lin's name before."

"I was concentrating on practicing martial arts before, so it's normal that I wasn't famous."

Lin Xuan suppressed the doubts in his heart and smiled: "I wonder if Brother Yan is going to compete with the last one?"

"No comparison! Even if Yan uses his Taoist skills to fight Mr. Lin, he will lose more than he wins."

Yan Chixia quickly shook her head: "Young master Lin's sword skills are powerful enough to subjugate demons and monsters. Yan is beyond his reach and is willing to admit defeat."

Everyone competes with each other under similar circumstances.

Fighting against Lin Xuan, Yan Chixia had no hope of winning.

Even if the opponent's swordsmanship is mediocre...

As long as such a long sword light is condensed, even if you swing it a few times, you will be chopped up and down!

It makes sense that every inch is longer and every inch is stronger.

"Whoop whoosh! We finally got around..., huh?"

At this moment, footsteps sounded, and Ning Caichen staggered into the hall.

Looking at Lin Xuan and the other two, Ning Caichen's face was full of confusion: "Master Lin, Hero Bai, aren't you behind me?"

"We just took a shortcut and came in first."

Lin Xuan smiled: "I thought about it on the way. Brother Ning doesn't have any magical powers, so it's easy for ghosts to take advantage of him. It's better to leave with Brother Yan and Brother Xia first, and don't delay going to Beijing to take the exam."

Although he dragged Ning Caichen into Lanruo Temple.

But he saved him once and helped him get money.

In any case, this amount of cause and effect should be enough to clear both sides.

Well, the female ghost behind is too deep for most people to control...

It is better to take the imperial examination with peace of mind and strive for good results.

Historically, the Ming Dynasty seriously held its last imperial examination one year before its fall.

Lin Xuan estimated that it was probably this time...

"Hey! What's going on?"

Ning Caichen was startled and said in surprise.

"It's getting late. Please leave quickly. Please explain to Mr. Ning on the way."

Lin Xuan handed over to Yan Chixia and said: "We will meet in the future, so I will be my host and treat you all to a few drinks."

"Easy to say, easy to say, it should be..."

"You two, please be careful. I'm waiting for good news."

"Then I won't bother you."

Yan Chixia and Xia Hou looked at each other, one to the left and the other to the right, then picked up the confused Ning Caichen and walked out quickly.

"Master Lin is still so unpredictable when it comes to things..."

Hearing the footsteps going away, Ao Xue breathed a sigh of relief and happily took off her bamboo hat, revealing her stunning appearance.

"It's finally quiet, let's get down to business..."

Lin Xuan thought for a moment: "If you restrain your breath, the ghosts shouldn't be able to detect you, right?"

"The Ghost King and Ghost Immortal should still be able to detect it."

"It shouldn't be that strong..."

Lin Xuan hesitated for a moment: "Let's get ready. You shouldn't be afraid of meeting a female ghost, right?"

"The female ghost should be fine..."

Ao Xue hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "If I'm really scared, can I beat her to death?"

"...Then you'd better avoid it first."

"Well, great!"

***
In an underground palace behind Lanruo Temple
The tree demon grandma, who looks indistinguishable from yin and yang, is lying on a magnificent chair, listening to the report of the situation by her bird demons.

"That bearded Yan Chixia is here again, and she's bringing a swordsman who doesn't know magic with her."

"Another scholar came behind us. For some reason, Yan Chixia and the others were driven away by the scholar."

The bird demon chirped: "Yan Chixia's cultivation is profound, and we don't dare to get too close to Lanruo Temple. We can only listen to the noise from a distance."

"Driven away?"

The tree demon grandma was startled: "Forget it if Yan Chixia ran away, then the swordsman also ran away?"

"Not only that, when Yan Chixia and the others ran away, they also took away another lost scholar."

"You bunch of losers!"

Grandma Dryad was furious and opened her eyes: "If someone wants to run away, won't you stop me?"

Yan Chixia is indeed very powerful.

But the remaining swordsman and scholar are obviously two pieces of fat.

He ran away like that, and the tree demon grandma felt a little distressed.

"Yan Chixia is taking them away together, we can't stop them."

When the bird demon saw the unkind look on the face of the tree demon's grandmother, he quickly said: "There is a scholar in the temple now. Oh, by the way, the scholar also brought a female companion."

"The scholar who drove away Yan Chixia?"

"Yes."

"You actually brought a female companion when you ran to Lanruo Temple. Are you so good at playing?"

Grandma Dryad rolled her eyelids: "What do those two people look like?"

"The scholar is very young and good-looking. He seems to be quite good at martial arts."

The bird demon thought for a while: "That woman is wearing a bamboo hat, so she can't see her face clearly, but her figure is very graceful and graceful. She is one of the best among grandma."

"The scholar just went to the temple wing to make a bed. He shouldn't be leaving at night."

Another Harpy Hui report: "They asked for two rooms and slept in separate rooms."

"Students like to be prude, and they will definitely sneak into other people's beds at night."

Grandma Dryad thought for a while and sneered: "Never mind that, this is a good thing delivered to your door. There is an old saying: 'If you don't take what God wants, you will suffer the consequences.'"

"Congratulations to grandma!"

A female ghost laughed.

"If you don't eat it, it means nothing."

"My martial arts skills are good, and to bring someone to a ghost place like this... It's probably a young man from a famous family who has some skills."

Grandma Dryad thought for a while: "Tell Xiaoqian to let her go there and make sure to take down the scholar. I will make my own arrangements for the rest."

"Yes, grandma!"
