The great dream of the heavens begins with Lin Pingzhi!

Chapter 22: Songshan Sect surrenders, and the Golden Bell Cover is complete!
During the time when Chu Feng was concentrating on practicing martial arts, turmoil suddenly arose in the martial arts world.

The masters of the Demon Sect gathered together, and a large number of people gathered. They were originally preparing to attack the Five Mountains Sword Sect, but suddenly changed their target and began to hunt down Xiang Wentian, the right-hand man of the Sun and Moon Sect, throughout the martial arts world!
However, Xiang Wentian was very powerful and escaped danger many times.

The leader of Huashan Sect, Gentleman Sword Yue Buqun, felt that the Demon Sect was gaining strength, so he began to promote the merger of the Five Mountains Sword Sects.

The head of the Taishan sect, Tianmen Taoist, and the head of the Hengshan sect, Master Dingxian, both strongly opposed it.

But not long after, Tianmen Taoist was deposed from his position as the head of the sect by his uncle Yu Jizi and imprisoned.

Meanwhile, Master Dingxian was assassinated by the demon cult and died. Master Dingjing took over as the head of the sect!
At the same time, in the main hall of Songshan Sect.

The only seven remaining Taibao, including Tang Ying'e, Le Hou, Fei Bin, Gao Kexin, and Sha Tianjiang, gathered together to discuss the matter of merging the Five Mountains.

Deputy Sect Leader Tang Ying'e said solemnly, "A message has been sent by a Huashan Sect spy. Six months ago, Yue Buqun discovered stone carvings of martial arts left behind by the Demon Cult at the Cliff of Regret. These carvings contain not only many of the Five Mountains Sword Sect's lost secrets, but also methods to break them. Yue Buqun, Ning Zhongze, Linghu Chong, Yue Lingshan, and the others diligently practiced swordsmanship at the Cliff of Regret, and their martial arts have all improved significantly! Even Linghu Chong's martial arts have surpassed Tian Boguang's, the lone traveler in a thousand miles, and he's already a top-tier expert. As for Yue Buqun and his wife, they've become even more unfathomable!"

Everyone's expressions changed drastically upon hearing this. They hadn't expected the Huashan Sect to quietly increase its strength and even harbor ambitions to annex their Songshan Sect!

At this time, Tang Ying'e continued, "Not only that, not long ago, three top-notch masters, Feng Buping, Cong Buqi, and Cheng Buyu, descendants of the Sword Sect, jointly challenged Yue Buqun, but were also defeated. They even used the sword techniques carved in the stone of Siguo Cliff to win him over! Now that the two sects of Huashan Sect, Sword and Qi, have been reunited, their strength has greatly increased!"

Everyone's faces changed drastically upon hearing this. Among the seven of them, the most skilled martial artists were Fei Bin, Tang Ying'e, and Le Hou, but there was no way they could possibly rival three top-tier masters, let alone two!
If the Five Mountains sects continue to advance, the Songshan sect may really be swallowed up by the Huashan sect!

At this time, Fei Bin suddenly said, "There is another piece of news. Lin Pingzhi once told me that there is a senior from the Sword Sect living in seclusion in the back mountain of Huashan Sect, Feng Qingyang! I think you should all know Feng Qingyang's name! In the past, due to the split between the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect, Feng Qingyang would never have helped Yue Buqun, but now it is different! If Feng Qingyang takes action, I am afraid that in the entire martial arts world, only Dongfang Bubai and Lin Pingzhi can match him!"

Everyone fell silent after hearing this!
Because it is a fact that decades ago, Feng Qingyang's swordsmanship was already the best in the martial arts world!

If it were thirty years ago, Feng Qingyang, the sword master, might still have the weakness of insufficient internal strength, but after thirty years of hard training, his internal strength must have been extremely strong, and his martial arts skills are now almost invincible!
Then, Le Hou suddenly said, "Fourth Senior Brother, do you really want to join Lin Pingzhi when you say this?"

Fei Bin said calmly, "Now that our headmaster is away, the Songshan Sect is in a dire situation. If we don't have a backer, we'll inevitably be swallowed up by the Huashan Sect!"

Everyone present heard this and thought it made sense.

At this time, Tang Ying'e said, "Brother Fei, I know that Lin Pingzhi released you with the intention of promoting you to become the head of the Songshan Sect and to serve him! But how can you guarantee that Lin Pingzhi's Hunyuan Sect will not swallow up our Songshan Sect?"

Fei Bin smiled calmly and said, "Songshan is not the only place with our Songshan Sect. We also have the Shaolin Temple, the martial arts leader! Do you think Shaolin Temple would be willing for the Hunyuan Sect to establish itself in Songshan?"

How can you allow others to snore on the side of the bed?
There is no way that Shaolin Temple would allow a peerless expert like Lin Pingzhi, who is almost the best in the righteous path, to stay by its side!

Everyone understood this and felt much more at ease.

Then, Deputy Sect Leader Tang Ying'e stood up, clasped his fists towards Fei Bin and said, "Greetings, Sect Leader, Senior Brother!"

Le Hou, Gao Kexin and others also saluted with their fists.

Fei Bin smiled and said, "No need to be so polite, fellow apprentices!"

Then, after a brief discussion, the group decided to send some masters from the Songshan Sect to Fuzhou to serve under Lin Pingzhi, with Le Hou leading the team.

His mission is to sign a covenant of mutual assistance with Hunyuan Sect!

In this way, if the Huashan Sect wants to forcibly annex the Songshan Sect, the Hunyuan Sect will be able to help!
A few days later, Fuzhou City.

Chu Feng met Le Hou and the other Songshan Sect members and, knowing their purpose, agreed to sign an alliance with them. Of course, there were many details that needed to be changed.

After signing the alliance, the Songshan Sect almost became a vassal sect of the Hunyuan Sect!

Of course, Chu Feng actually didn’t have time to go to Songshan and interfere in the affairs of the Songshan School!

But with this name, it will be easier to do things in the future!

……

Time flies, half a year has passed in the blink of an eye!
At this time, in Fuzhou City, in the backyard of the Lin Mansion.

Two figures, one in white and one in purple, crossed each other at a high speed, like ghostly phantoms, and the sound of swords clashing could be heard from time to time.

After dozens of moves, the two figures suddenly separated. They were Chu Feng and Ren Yingying!
Ren Yingying looked at Chu Feng with admiration and said, "Mr. Lin, you've only been learning the Fleeting Light and Shadow technique for half a year, and you've already surpassed me. You're truly a natural talent!"

Chu Feng shook his head. He knew that his talent was not that strong. It was just because he had the foundation of the perfect-level Dragon-Wandering Body Skill, so when he learned the similar light skill of Fleeting Light and Shadow, his progress would naturally be much faster!

Then he added, "However, you have helped me a lot in the past six months, so let's set out tomorrow morning to rescue your father!"

Upon hearing this, Ren Yingying said with surprise, "Thank you, Master Lin!"

Immediately, Madam Wang came over with some fruits and said, "Miss Yingying, come and have some fruits!"

Ren Yingying heard this and said with a smile: "Auntie, then I won't be polite!"

Then, Chu Feng and Ren Yingying came to the pavilion to rest and eat some fruits.

Chu Feng quietly checked the attribute panel.

[Host]: Lin Pingzhi (Chu Feng)
[Realm]: Fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm

[Martial Arts]: White Ape Body Tempering Fist (perfect), Golden Bell Cover (perfect), Iron Shirt (perfect), Exorcism Sword Technique (perfect), Golden Knife Sword Technique (perfect), Wandering Dragon Body Technique (perfect), Fleeting Light and Shadow (great success 56%), Fresh Breeze Step (great success 46%), Songyang Jue (first level 20%), Songshan Sword Technique (minor success 13%), Great Songyang Divine Palm (minor success 8%).

After six months of hard training, Chu Feng finally opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and his Golden Bell Cover reached the ninth level, greatly increasing his internal strength!

However, because the Golden Bell Cover only has nine levels, there is no more room for improvement at this level, and it is already a perfect level!
Even so, the defense of the Nine-Layer Golden Bell Cover is almost invincible. Apart from Dongfang Bubai and Feng Qingyang, no one in the martial arts world can threaten him, not even break through his defense!

The internal force of the Golden Bell Cover also led to a breakthrough in the White Ape Body Tempering Fist, allowing his body tempering skills to break through to the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm, and his regular arm strength reached one thousand pounds!

Not only that, his advanced light skill of glimpsing light has also been perfected, and the increase in his body speed is far superior to that of the dragon-swimming skill.

With this advanced light skill, Chu Feng no longer has to worry about being kite-followed by Dongfang Bubai!
At this moment, he really had the possibility of becoming the best in the world!
In addition, the Exorcism Sword Technique also broke through to perfection, which was an unexpected surprise.

Unfortunately, this peerless sword technique lacks the unique internal skills and mental method to match it, so the sword-drawing speed is average, only 30% faster than the perfect-level golden sword technique.
