Zhu Tian: Becoming a Sword Master from Martial Arts

Chapter 133 Ying Huanhuan's Invitation to Fight

In the end, Ling Qingzhu did not sit in the top seat. One reason was that Ling Qingzhu herself did not agree, and the other was that Yan did not speak either.

You know, among those present, besides Ling Qingzhu, there is also Bing Zhu. He is currently the strongest person in Tianxuan Continent and the person who, as Fu Zu said in person, has the greatest hope of breaking through the ancestral realm.

Even in Yan's eyes, the Ice Lord is definitely a hope. Another hope is the Sword Saint. As for Lin Dong, he is a backup option. No, if there is another Ling Qingzhu, he should be a backup option. He can only be the fourth option.

In Yan Xin's ranking, the Sword Saint is undoubtedly number one. With unparalleled talent, as long as he can truly break through to the Samsara Realm before the war, he will have hope of breaking through to the Ancestral Realm before the Ice Lord. Even if he cannot, with the Sword Saint's combat power that can be called a demon among demons, plus his life that is tougher than that of the demons, his strength is definitely above that of the Ice Lord.

The second is the Ice Lord. There is no need to say much about the Ice Lord’s talent. Before the Sword Saint, he was the champion who held the title of the number one genius in the Tianxuan Continent for more than ten thousand years. He himself is the only powerful person in the Divine Palace Realm today.

The third is Ling Qingzhu. It’s not about her strength, but her talent for the Supreme Power and the possibility of her being recognized by the Fetus of the Plane should be second only to that of the Sword Saint.

Lin Dong Chunchun is just a backup that Yan himself intends to train. There is nothing else to do but to use enough divine objects to build up. In addition, Lin Dong himself has enough talent, strong resilience, and enough perseverance, second only to the Sword Master. He can withstand it. As long as he can reach the peak of the Reincarnation Realm, with the help of many divine objects, his combat power can reach the level of the Ice Lord.

On the whole, even if someone has to sit in the top position, it should be the Sword Saint. After all, at the moment, the Sword Saint is still the number one person in fighting against demons, and Yan is still counting on the Sword Saint to be the main force.

We can't expect the Ice Lord who hasn't awakened yet to do anything, right? Or, throw in Lin Dong, the spare tire who hasn't grown up yet? Don't be ridiculous, even the alien demon king under the Great Desolate Monument can only be with a life as strong as that of a sword saint.

However, if it asked Lin Xuan to sit in the seat that represented its old master, Yan would find it difficult to say so, because that would mean that the era belonging to its old master would be completely over. It would just be like a lonely spirit's last bit of selfishness towards its old master.

That’s too far…

Seeing that Ying Huanhuan and Ling Qingzhu did not continue to compete, Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and quickly spoke.

"Actually, it was me who asked Sect Master Ying Xuanzi to find you this time, so that we can join forces to fight against those damned traitors of Yuan Sect!"

"traitor?"

Seeing the somewhat angry look on Yan's face, the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace frowned slightly. She had felt that something was wrong with Yuan Sect before, but when it came to the mention of traitor, she didn't quite understand.

After all, many things from ancient times have not been passed down, and only the names of a few powerful people such as Fu Zu have been passed down. As for what exactly happened in ancient times, most people don’t know. Even the Jiutian Taiqing Palace does not know the true origin of the Tai Shang Ganying Jue.

In fact, this can be considered a protective measure. Sometimes it will be safer, especially for the Tai Shang Sensing Art, which was something that even Fu Zu himself and Bing Zhu had not successfully cultivated in ancient times. The demons would pay so much attention to something that cannot be cultivated and is useless.

As for the true effect of the Supreme Induction Art, including the spirit of the ancestral stone, only three people know it, and what is passed on to others is just a magical method of cultivation.

"Yes, the Yuan Clan is a group of damned traitors. They have secretly joined the alien demons!"

Ying Xuanzi said in a cold voice, with a chilling murderous intent in his tone. Ying Xuanzi was extremely hostile to Yuanmen. If Yuanmen had not helped the alien demon, his disciple would not have experienced such a tragedy that year.

"The alien demons are the great enemy of our world. In ancient times, it was the alien demons that invaded and caused the death of countless strong men in our Tianxuan Continent. If it weren't for Master Fu Zu who burned the reincarnation to seal the alien demon emperor, the ancient war would not have ended yet."

Seeing that the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace had no idea about the strange demon, Yan added something, and his expression involuntarily became serious as he spoke.

"And the powerful demons who survived that year are now hiding in the dark and plotting to stir up another catastrophe. The Devil Prison is their code name. The man from the Seventh Palace is one of the top warriors in the Devil Prison, but he is definitely not the strongest!"

The Palace Master of Taiqing Palace's expression gradually grew solemn as he heard this. As Lin Dong said, this was no longer a feud between them and the Yuan Clan, but rather a matter of justice between heaven and earth. Immediately, the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace responded without any hesitation.

"Since our Taiqing Palace is the Taoist sect passed down by Master Fu Zu, it is our duty to exorcise demons. However, if we want to deal with the Yuan Sect with the help of the demons, I am afraid that it will be beyond the ability of Dao Sect and our Taiqing Palace alone, right?"

If it was just the Yuan Sect, it would be fine. Although the three great masters of the Yuan Sect are quite powerful and there are many strong people in the sect, the Dao Sect and the Taiqing Palace are not pushovers either. They can naturally deal with it by joining forces. However, the Demon Prison behind the Yuan Sect is not something that the Dao Sect and the Taiqing Palace can handle.

"Don't worry about that. I have already discussed it with the Dark Palace Master Bo Xuan. They will send strong men to help us. At the same time, we are also secretly looking for other allies."

Ying Xuanzi nodded and said that the matter of joining forces with the other five super sects did not mean that Ying Xuanzi intentionally concealed the rules of Taiqing Palace. After all, this matter has not really started yet. Moreover, the demons are omnipresent, so many things still need to be hidden first.

Moreover, from the look in the eyes of the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace, one could tell that he already had some guesses in his mind, so he did not mention the secret alliance with other Wheel-Turning Realm powerhouses in the Dongxuan Region.

"Moreover, the top warriors of the Demon Prison have not yet fully awakened. The Seven Kings Palace is probably still recovering from their injuries. Although we also lost a lot of warriors in the ancient battle, the group of alien demons are still having a hard time."

Having said that, Yan's gaze couldn't help but look at Lin Xuan. This was the best time for them to take the opportunity to eliminate those suppressed demons, and Lin Xuan was undoubtedly the biggest force and the sharpest blade.

Lin Xuan, who was being stared at by Yan, looked at Ying Huanhuan beside him strangely. He always felt that the other party's emotions seemed to be a little wrong. Moreover, the aura belonging to the Ice Lord would suddenly become active from time to time, as if it had been stimulated by something and wanted to wake up from the reincarnation early.

"There is no need to worry about the Demon Prison for now. Besides, the three people from the Yuan Sect are now recovering from their injuries and dare not make any unusual moves in the short term. Now we should form an offensive and defensive alliance, and then we can deal with the Yuan Sect together!"

Ying Xuanzi said in a deep voice that according to Yan, their goal was to hold down the Yuanmen chess piece and prevent it from secretly rescuing those powerful demons.

The rest, to be honest, is not important. The Yuan Sect is just a vanguard after all. It is only at this stage when the top masters have not recovered that the Yuan Sect can still take advantage. As long as they catch the Yuan Sect and let the Sword Saint secretly clean up a group of difficult guys, their advantage will be much greater. "Since the spirit of the ancestral stone and Master Ying have both made plans, then I don't have to worry!"

The Palace Master of Taiqing Palace responded softly, then looked at Ying Huanhuan who was sitting where Lin Xuan was sitting, and then looked at Ying Xiaoxiao twice, and said with a smile.

"I haven't seen you for a few months. You have made rapid progress. I think you will be able to break through to the Shengxuan realm soon, right?"

"Palace Master, you are overpraising me. Xiaoxiao just had a chance some time ago and barely advanced to the Ninth Element Nirvana Realm. She is still far behind Senior Sister Ling!"

Ying Xiaoxiao was calm. After losing to Ling Qingzhu last time, she was convinced of Ling Qingzhu's strength and talent. She was indeed completely defeated in that match.

So after returning to the sect, Ying Xiaoxiao practiced very hard, and then with great momentum, she broke through directly to the Ninth Yuan Nirvana Realm. However, compared with Ling Qingzhu, who was at the peak of the Nirvana Realm, she was still far behind.

"Last time we fought, Senior Sister's swordsmanship was superb and Junior Sister was convinced. This time..."

But just when Ying Xiaoxiao was about to challenge Ling Qingzhu again, Ying Huanhuan, who was sitting next to her, stood up on her own initiative, put a polite smile on her face, and spoke to Ling Qingzhu with a smile as beautiful as a flower.

"So, this time, it's my turn to ask Senior Sister Ling for advice. Senior Sister Ling shouldn't look down on me because of my meager strength, right?"

For some reason, Lin Dong felt cold sweat coming out of his back. He felt that the hall had become inexplicably cold. What made Lin Dong even more frightened was the reaction of Yan next to him.

Looking at the lively girl with a sweet smile, Yan's body trembled slightly, and he felt his mouth start to quiver. When he was hesitating about how to stop the fight, he heard Ling Qingzhu's response.

"Junior Sister Huanhuan, you are too polite. Last time, Qingzhu had already seen Junior Sister Xiaoxiao's high skills. I have heard that Senior Sister Huanhuan is an excellent zither player and is also proficient in a special martial art of the Dao Sect, the Formless Bodhi Sound. Today is a good opportunity to learn from her."

Facing Ying Huanhuan's challenge, although Ling Qingzhu felt a little puzzled, it was in line with her idea. Even if Ying Huanhuan did not challenge her, Ling Qingzhu would find a way to fight with Ying Huanhuan.

Only through a real fight can one better understand the other party and be more likely to gain insight into the secrets of Ying Huanhuan. Ling Qingzhu has a hunch that the girl in front of her must be hiding a huge secret, and it may even be related to her.

This feeling is not only the intuition of a woman, but also a special premonition brought to Ling Qingzhu by the Supreme Power.

"Okay, that's perfect. I've heard from my senior brother that Senior Sister Ling's swordsmanship is extraordinary, the only one he has ever seen. I've always wanted to ask my senior brother to teach me swordsmanship, but I don't know how to get started. Wait, Senior Sister Ling, please teach me!"

Ying Huanhuan had a well-behaved and sweet smile on her face, as if everything she said was true. If Yan hadn't seen the surprise and doubt on the Sword Saint's face, and hadn't sensed that Ying Huanhuan was transmitting a message to the Sword Saint, he would have almost believed it.

Looking at Ying Huanhuan and Ling Qingzhu who were confronting each other, Yan's face turned pale in an instant. He could already sense that he didn't have much time left. In this competition, no matter who won or lost, he would either be "liquidated" by the Ice Lord or "interrogated" by the grown-up Ling Qingzhu.

"Humph! I will teach you the piano skills, and in return, you must teach me swordsmanship!"

Hearing what Ying Huanhuan said, Lin Xuan subconsciously turned his head to look at the girl. He didn't remember that he had promised to teach her swordsmanship.

However, in the face of what Ying Huanhuan said, he had no intention of refutation. The other party taught him the art of playing the zither, and it was not a problem for him to teach him some basic swordsmanship. However, Ying Huanhuan's voice transmission made Lin Xuan a little puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Ling Qingzhu on the opposite side also shifted her gaze to Lin Xuan. When she saw that the other party was a little surprised but did not refute, she was also shocked.

Ling Qingzhu asked herself if she had some understanding of Lin Xuan's temper. This guy had a cold personality, but was also easy to talk to, provided that he didn't care about the matter.

The sword is definitely what Lin Xuan cares about most. Ling Qingzhu doesn't believe that Lin Xuan would be the kind of person who has the leisure to teach others swordsmanship. Normally, he can say to anyone he meets that their talent is far better than mine. But if he were to teach others swordsmanship, they would all be foolish and stupid, sinners who would tarnish the sanctity of the sword, and would be killed with just one sword.

The fact that a man who is so devout in kendo could indulge her like this shows that the secret of Ying Huanhuan is definitely very unusual.

"Really? Then let Qingzhu learn how amazing the talent that Master Lin Xuan has chosen is."

A smile instantly appeared on Ling Qingzhu's face, just like a snow lotus blooming on a thousand miles of snowfield, pure and cool, independent from the world.

Ying Xiaoxiao looked at Ying Huanhuan who was very hostile to Ling Qingzhu, and couldn't help but reveal a bit of worry in her eyes. In terms of strength, Ying Huanhuan was not as good as Ling Qingzhu at the moment. With Ying Huanhuan's stubborn personality, he would never be willing to lose to Ling Qingzhu in front of Lin Xuan. In the end, I'm afraid...

Thinking of this, Ying Xiaoxiao couldn't help but glance at Lin Xuan, whose expression remained unchanged and even showed a hint of interest. Her brows sank slightly, and she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Lin Xuan was quite curious. Whether it was Ling Qingzhu's use of the Supreme Power or Ying Huanhuan's piano skills, they were all worthy of his careful observation. Maybe he could gain some insights from them. Moreover, in Lin Xuan's view, this kind of competition was nothing more than a stop at the right time. If you lost, you lost. There was nothing to worry about.

Lin Xuan had no idea what Ying Huanhuan and Ling Qingzhu were thinking. One was bent on suppressing her competitor, while the other was bent on getting into her opponent's mind in order to see something from it.

Feeling the gradually burning fighting spirit in the hall, Yan couldn't help but shrink his neck and dived directly into Lin Dong's body.
