The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Chapter 348 Qin Dynasty Overture
During the second campaign of Qin's conquest of Han, a strange phenomenon of "two saints in the same sky" appeared above the city of Xianyang.

The common people were ignorant and thought it was a manifestation of gods, but those who were in the know knew that it was a scene of a battle between two great masters of the time, Donghuang Taiyi, the leader of the Yin-Yang School, and Yan Lu, the leader of the Demon Sect.

After this battle, Han Fei was declared to have "died suddenly" in Xianyang. King Ying Zheng of Qin slowed down his attack on Han and instead attacked Zhao, Wei, Yan and other countries.

After ten years, King Ying Zheng of Qin finally conquered the six kingdoms, unified the world, and established the first unified feudal dynasty in history - the Qin Dynasty.

After the establishment of the Qin Empire, Ying Zheng felt that his achievements surpassed those of the Three Sovereigns and his virtues surpassed those of the Five Emperors, so he called himself "Emperor".

Under the suppression of the Qin cavalry, the world seemed to be at peace, but under the calm situation, the various schools of thought united by the Nongjia, Mohist, and Xiang clan and the remnants of the six kingdoms were secretly plotting an anti-Qin cause.

……

Shimen Gorge, Cangyue Valley

A major event recently occurred in the thriving Qin Empire: The First Emperor's personal guard, the Sword Saint Gai Nie defected.

It is said that he has a big secret that can subvert the entire Qin Dynasty. Therefore, after he defected, the First Emperor sent people to search for him.

This time, the three hundred Qin cavalry finally blocked Gai Nie in Shimen Gorge.

Cangyue Valley is a dangerous place in the canyon, with high mountains on both sides and a deep gorge below.

There is only a narrow ancient road between the two high mountains. The terrain is steep and it can be said that one man can block the passage of ten thousand men.

If Gai Nie wants to escape from the search and pursuit of the Qin cavalry, he must defeat the three hundred cavalrymen who are blocking the way.

"Uncle, are they all here to catch us?" asked a little boy who followed Gai Nie.

"Tianming, are you afraid?" Gai Nie lowered his head and looked at Tianming.

"I'm not afraid as long as I'm here!" Tianming said.

"Tianming is a brave boy. Let the uncle handle the rest with his sword."

After Gai Nie finished speaking, he snapped his fingers and the sword in his hand, Yuanhong, sprang out three inches long. Astonishing sword energy radiated in all directions.

One should be loyal to the person who trusts him. Since he had promised his friend to take good care of the child, he would do whatever it takes to bring Tianming away safely.

On a cliff not far from Cangyue Valley, Yan Dan, a contemporary leader of the Mohist school, wearing a bamboo hat and a cloak, said to a short old man with a pale face and white hair beside him, "Master Ban, what do you think?"

"Gai Nie is an expert swordsman. A mere 300 cavalrymen cannot stop him. But he also has to protect the child next to him, so it's hard to say." Master Ban said.

"I'm also very curious, who is this child that Gai Nie is willing to defect to protect?" Yan Dan said.

"Master, why don't we take action?" Master Ban said.

"No, even if they have to distract themselves to protect the child, these people can't kill Gai Nie."

Yan Dan said: "The title of Sword Saint is not given for nothing."

Sure enough, in the Cangyue Valley, a Qin army archer shot an arrow because he was too nervous.

The battle between one and three hundred officially began. Gai Nie, armed with a sword, shuttled among the three hundred cavalrymen as if he was in an empty space.

"Master, why should we pay attention to Gai Nie?" Master Ban asked.

"To establish an anti-Qin alliance, we need to unite the forces of various schools of thought. After all, Gai Nie is the successor of Guigu Zongheng's school."

Yan Dan looked at Tianming who was protected by Gai Nie and said, "And that child is very special."

While the two were talking, the situation on the field changed again. Several Qin soldiers thrust their spears forward and attacked Tianming from behind Gai Nie.

"Be careful!" Seeing this, Gai Nie immediately pulled Tianming away, but because of this, his middle door was wide open and he was about to be stabbed by the enemy. "Buzz!"

At this moment, accompanied by a clear sound, two black lights broke through the air, pierced through the armor of seven or eight Qin soldiers, and nailed them to the ground.

Only then did everyone see clearly that the weapon that pierced through seven or eight Qin soldiers in one breath was actually a pair of daggers with long and narrow blades.

"What is that?" Master Ban couldn't help but ask.

"Use people to control qi, and use qi to control soldiers!" Yan Dan's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said, "So it turns out that the people from the Demon Sect have arrived."

When it comes to the Demonic Sect, even Yan Dan, a great figure in the Mohist School, has to take it seriously.

Although this new sect has only been around for a little over ten years, under the guidance of the "Heavenly Demon" Yan Lu, every successor to the sect is a rare master in the world.

They seemed to have no stance when they entered or left the world. They killed officials from the Qin State and various philosophers. They did whatever they wanted and acted recklessly. This was how various factions viewed these crazy people from the "Demon Sect".

"We only saw the sword, but not the person. It should be the unique technique of controlling soldiers and qi of the Demon Sect. It seems that the person who came should be the successor of the Demon Sect's way of destruction." Master Ban said.

Yan Dan remained noncommittal. One must know that among the six paths of the Demon Sect, the one who is good at "controlling the energy of soldiers" is not only the path of destruction, but also the path of true teaching of the Demon Sect who is said to be proficient in all arts of the demons.

There are six paths of the devil, but only one true teaching.

If the one who really preached the gospel came, he would have to re-evaluate the importance of Gai Nie and the child behind him.

"bass!"

Gai Nie swung out several sword strikes, and the sword energy flew across the sky, sweeping more than a dozen Qin cavalrymen who were charging on horseback, along with their horses, down to the Cangyue Valley.

"Shh!"

At this moment, the pair of long and narrow swords nailed to the ground, as if summoned by some unknown force, suddenly shot back and landed in a sword box with an extremely exquisite mechanism.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

The spring bounced and the two swords returned to their positions. Yan Dan, who was standing on the cliff, saw at a glance that there were obviously several more swords in the sword box.

The sword shone brightly, obviously not an ordinary item.

The owner of this sword box is a woman with a very beautiful face and a slim figure.

Seeing this, the Qin soldiers responsible for attacking Gai Nie split a team and surrounded the girl.

The girl tapped the sword case lightly, and another huge sword that looked extremely broad and sharp flew out.

The sword, controlled by the girl, spun and flew, and killed more than ten cavalrymen off their horses.

The girl gently swung the sword and it flew back, killing so many people in one breath, but the girl remained calm.

"Unparalleled Sword Box? Could that be true?" Master Ban said thoughtfully.

"Master Ban, you seem to know the origin of this woman." Yan Dan asked.

"It is said that three years ago, a young woman, accompanied by a blindfolded strong man, broke into the Gongshu family and forced the head of the Gongshu family, Gongshu Chou, to use his domineering mechanical skills to create this unparalleled sword box."

Master Ban said, "It was later confirmed that the two people who caused trouble at Gongshu's house. The blindfolded strong man was a disciple of the former Wei general, and now the leader of the Devil Sect's Destruction Sect, Dian Qing. As for the woman, she was the only successor of the Devil Sect's true teaching, Yan Yan!"

As if to confirm Master Ban’s statement, the next moment, a burly man as strong as a mountain came running towards him with big strides.

He raised his shoulder and extended his elbow, and with a fierce strike, he actually knocked away the remaining Qin soldiers who were charging with guns in hand!
