Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Chapter 44: The decline of heaven and earth, Linghu Chong descends the mountain
A few days later, Xu Qing stood on the edge of a cliff with his eyes closed, as if he was resting, but in fact he was still practicing.

He was appreciating nature, and the more he practiced martial arts, the more he had a different feeling about the world and nature.

Moreover, I increasingly feel the power of nature and how insignificant human power is.

But this state is difficult to maintain for a long time.

"The spiritual energy between heaven and earth seems to be decreasing..."

Xu Qing slowly opened his eyes, his brows slightly furrowed. With his spiritual power, he could sense the spiritual energy floating in the air between heaven and earth.

Compared to when he first came to this world, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth has changed.

This change was very subtle. After all, he had only been in this world for half a year, but he could still perceive it.

Inspiration is indeed decreasing.

"The world will also age..."

Xu Qing sighed lightly. The world, like humans, seemed to be entering old age and gradually declining.

The lifespan of heaven and earth is long, but it has its limits and will not last forever.

As human beings, our lifespan is even shorter. Compared with the heaven and earth, our lifespan is totally insignificant.

Immortality!

This is also the thought that all people in the world have, to live forever in the world, to have a long life, and to be immortal.

But this kind of thing is completely impossible in the world of martial arts.

No matter how high one's martial arts skills are, one will eventually enter a period of decline and eventually die.

Xu Qing roughly estimated that his lifespan would increase after the hidden injuries in his body were completely eradicated.

Afterwards, they can live to about 150 years old.

For ordinary people, one hundred and fifty years old is definitely considered a long life.

But in terms of the universe and all things in nature, one hundred and fifty years is extremely short.

Xu Qing sighed softly. The path to immortality is like going against the will of heaven. It requires taking away the fortune of heaven and earth, and is extremely difficult.

This is definitely not something he can do at the moment.

After calming down his thoughts a little, Xu Qing turned around and looked at Linghu Chong and other true disciples who were approaching.

"Master (father)."

All the disciples and Yue Lingshan greeted him.

Xu Qing nodded slightly and spoke slowly, "I, the master, accepted Lin Pingzhi, the son of Lin Zhennan of the Lin Mansion's Fuwei Escort Agency, as my disciple in Fuzhou City. I'm sure you've heard about this."

"Master, your disciples knew about this even before you returned to the mountains."

Linghu Chong took a step forward and answered.

Naturally, this group of disciples had discussed the matter of their master accepting another true disciple.

Now I am wondering why the master did not bring that junior brother back with him when he returned to the mountain this time.

Yue Lingshan directly asked everyone's question, "Dad, why didn't you bring my junior brother back?

I was thinking of showing my junior brother around our Huashan Sect."

She was actually quite happy that she had a junior fellow apprentice. This way, she was no longer the youngest among all the true disciples.

"He stayed in Fuzhou City and established the Huashan Outer Sect for my Huashan Sect."

Xu Qing explained with a smile.

"Huashan Outer Sect?!"

"Master, what is that?"

Lu Dayou, Liang Fa and others were all puzzled by this.

Xu Qing then told everyone about this model, which was also the reason why they came.

The establishment of Huashan Outer Sect also requires the power of Huashan Sect.

After many days of training, his disciples should also take on some tasks.

The disciples seemed to understand but not quite. Although they were curious about this new model, since their master had made the decision, they naturally had no objection.

"Next, regarding the affairs of Huashan's outer sect, you will also need to cooperate with your junior brother to establish them."

Xu Qing said lightly.

"Yes, Master, I will fully cooperate."

Linghu Chong and others obeyed their master's orders.

This matter concerns the prosperity of the sect, so they should fully assist and cooperate with Lin Pingzhi.

"Chong'er, stay here. The rest of you can go and get busy." Xu Qing waved his hand, leaving Linghu Chong alone.

Linghu Chong stood still, with all kinds of speculations in his mind as to why Xu Qing left him alone.

"Your martial arts have improved a lot. It seems that during the time I was away from the mountain, you didn't secretly drink and have fun like before, neglecting your martial arts."

Xu Qing stared at Linghu Chong with deep eyes and spoke slowly.

In the past, Linghu Chong often drank strong liquor secretly and then played around in the mountains and fields. He was very carefree and did not pay much attention to the practice of martial arts.

Now, after being ignored by Xu Qing for a period of time, Linghu Chong has changed.

Even when Xu Qing was not in the mountains, he did not indulge in pleasure, but continued to practice martial arts diligently, which made Xu Qing very satisfied.

"Disciple dare not neglect martial arts!" Linghu Chong said.

He was really afraid that if he did the same thing as before, he would completely lose his master's respect.

Now the master has accepted another true disciple and entrusted him with an important task. If he does not practice hard and change himself, I am afraid that he will completely disappoint the master.

Therefore, Linghu Chong was extremely diligent during this period, which led to a great increase in his strength.

Especially his swordsmanship, he is almost at the point of mastering the Huashan swordsmanship.

Linghu Chong has good aptitude for martial arts, but his strongest talent is swordsmanship!

Feng Qingyang could completely memorize and comprehend the peerless sword techniques like "Nine Swords of Dugu" after practicing them once.

Now he practices martial arts diligently, and with his own talent, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is about to master the Huashan sword technique to perfection.

"Now that you have made some progress in martial arts, it's time for you to go down the mountain and gain some experience."

Xu Qing nodded slightly. With Linghu Chong's current martial arts level and the power of his swordsmanship, he has nothing to fear except the top masters in the martial arts world.

This level is enough to go down the mountain for training.

When practicing martial arts, cultivation is important, but experience is also important.

Only actual combat can sharpen one's abilities and enable one to grow faster.

"Master!?" Linghu Chong was surprised. He had never expected that he would be recognized by his master and be able to go down the mountain to gain experience?!
"Your talent is the best among all my disciples, but you lack a mature and stable heart.

I hope that after this trip down the mountain, you will be able to grow more and become more mature and stable."

Xu Qing spoke up, hoping that Linghu Chong could grow and change more.

"Yes, I will never let Master down!"

Linghu Chong bowed deeply and spoke firmly.

"After you come down the mountain, your master has something for you to accomplish. This will be a test for your training."

Xu Qing suddenly remembered something and continued.

"Master, please tell me. I will do my best to complete it!" Linghu Chong replied immediately.

“Forty years ago, our Huashan Sect almost fell apart due to a dispute over sword energy.

Many disciples of the Sword Sect are still wandering outside, but they are still disciples of the Huashan Sect. After you find the people from the Sword Sect, let them return to Huashan.

If they are unwilling, you can use the sword in your hand to persuade them. Do you understand what I mean?"

Xu Qing reminded Linghu Chong that he remembered that the Sword Sect still had many disciples and their strength was decent.

If we can bring Huashan Sect under its control, it will be a considerable force.

Moreover, he also wanted to completely resolve the problems left over from the sword energy dispute.

The sect must not be allowed to split.

The Sword Sect and the Qi Sect will inevitably achieve unification.

None of them can be missing.

Linghu Chong was slightly stunned. Looking at Xu Qing's expression, he nodded blankly and said:
"Yes, disciple understands."

After Xu Qing finished his instructions, he turned around, facing Linghu Chong with his back, waved his hand, and said:

"Go."

"Yes, disciple bids farewell to Master!"

Linghu Chong bowed deeply and then walked down the mountain with firm steps.

He wants to complete the test given to him by his master, and then return to Huashan in a stronger and more mature attitude.
