Traveling through the heavens starts from practicing swords in the palace

136. Chapter 135. Competition
More than a dozen masked men stood there dumbfounded.

They had just seen the martial arts of the Six Immortals of Peach Valley, and they were really afraid.Seeing Lin Pingzhi's agility, he felt that this young man was also difficult to deal with.

What's more, Yue Buqun and his wife of the Huashan School are not ordinary.

After weighing it in their hearts, they all felt that if the Six Immortals of Peach Valley and Lin Pingzhi wanted to intervene, they would never be able to take advantage of it.

They didn't know what to do for a while, they could only look at the two Songshan faction to see what they meant.

The expression on Lu Bai's face was uncertain.When he was down the mountain, he had seen Lin Pingzhi's attack, and he knew that this young man's martial arts were extremely high.

If only these dozen or so masked men acted, the possibility of being wiped out by the group was extremely high.

But if they are Songshan, Taishan, Hengshan masters and Jianzong Feng Buping and Cong Buqi joined the battle, one is not strong enough to crush, even if they win, they will suffer heavy casualties; the other is like Lin Ping said. He said, they said just now that the Wuyue Sword Sect is united, so how can they unite with the masked men to attack the Huashan Sect?
Although there is "Peach Blossom Tribulation" Xing Tianyi next to him, but this senior just promised them to find Yue Buqun for a sword competition, and it is absolutely impossible for him to help in the gang fight.

Lu Bai and Ding Mian hesitated for a long time, but they didn't think of how to deal with it.

Lin Pingzhi said at this time: "Since the masked gentlemen have no intention of doing anything, let's talk about the Huashan School again."

"Although I am an outsider, I have some opinions. I have two suggestions on this matter. I wonder if you want to hear them?"

After some tossing, Lin Pingzhi has turned the situation on the field.The two Songshan faction had no good idea at this time, they could only take one step at a time, and asked tentatively, "Your Excellency, what suggestion do you have?"

Lin Pingzhi said: "I see that you and the Huashan faction agreed on the ownership of the head, and each of you insisted on your own opinion. The two of you held the banner of the May Order of the left leader to ask the Huashan faction to obey, and the head of the Huashan faction, Yue and his wife, said this again. It's their own family affairs that the leader of the Left Alliance can't handle. From the perspective of an outsider, I think each has its own reasons..."

If Lin Pingzhi said that at the beginning, then the Huashan faction might blame him for not knowing right from wrong, and the Songshan faction would also say that he was talking nonsense.

But he showed his skills just now and made it clear that he has the strength to influence the situation by uniting with the Six Immortals of Peach Valley. Many people on both sides nodded slightly, thinking that although this statement is not entirely true, it is still objective.

Lin Pingzhi said: "We martial arts people naturally talk about the truth, but since each has its own reasons and cannot convince each other, we still have to use martial arts to discuss the truth."

"Since it is the Wuyue Sword Sect, the head of the sect must naturally be a person with superb swordsmanship. I suggest that the head of Yue and Mr. Feng Feng, the sword sect of the Huashan School, compete in a round. Whoever has the best swordsmanship will win Just be the head of the Huashan faction!"

As soon as he said this, the disciples of Huashan School all echoed in unison.It was probably because they knew that their master's swordsmanship was superb, and they would never lose to Huashan's abandoned disciple Feng Buping.

Hearing what Lin Pingzhi said, Feng Buping's heart burst into flames: he was invited by Zuo Lengchan to go out to seize the head of the Huashan School this time, of course he was not unprepared, in fact he had practiced swordsmanship for many years , especially kept a set of Kuangfeng swordsmanship secretly, which was specially prepared for dealing with Yue Buqun.

Lin Pingzhi's sentence "Whoever has the best swordsmanship will be the head of the Huashan School" literally touched Feng Buping's heart.For him, it would be the greatest honor in his life if he could defeat Yue Buqun in public and sit on the throne of the head of the Huashan School openly.

So after listening to Lin Pingzhi's words, he clenched the hilt of his sword, took a step forward, and wanted to accept the proposal.

Yue Buqun also said at this time: "Brother Feng, the head of the Huashan School has always been chosen by the previous head. Martial arts are important, but character is also indispensable. There is absolutely no reason why martial arts should belong. I won't compete with you, I think you will not be convinced in your heart, and you will say that our Qizong is afraid of your Jianzong."

"Right now, let me learn the sword skills of your sword sect, Senior Brother Xia Feng."

As soon as he said this, most of the bystanders thought: "Yue Buqun so readily agreed to compete with Feng Buping, it is natural that he thinks that Feng Buping will be defeated. Speaking of which, Yue Buqun's swordsmanship is the same as that of the Wuyue Sword School. He is a leader, Zixia's internal strength has reached the peak, except for Zuo Lengchan, the other masters and even the masters of the Five Sacred Sword Sect dare not say that they will defeat him."

Feng Buping naturally observed the eyes of other people, knowing that they were not optimistic about him.He is also a strong person, so he wants to prove himself even more by defeating Yue Buqun.

He took another step forward, waiting to respond to Yue Buqun's invitation to fight.

But at this moment, Songshan Sect Lu Bai raised his hand to stop him and said: "Senior Brother Yue, as you said, being the leader does not require martial arts. It is the best in the sect. It also needs to comprehensively weigh the character and own quality. Although Mr. Feng I have a great chance of winning a sword duel with you, but what is the persuasiveness of that? Our leader of the Left Alliance also said before he came that this time he came with his command flag to ask Senior Brother Yue to give up his position. It was to see whether Senior Brother Yue would obey us or not. The orders of the leader of the Five Sacred Sword Sect should not be in direct conflict with you, lest we hurt the peace of our Five Sacred Sword Sect families."

As soon as he said this long sentence, the disciples of Huashan School gave a long gasp, expressing their sarcasm.

Even the masters of Hengshan and Songshan sects who were traveling with him showed disapproving expressions, obviously not approving his statement.

People in the Jianghu are no more than pedantic scholars. Everything has to be discussed with a pen.It is normal for each to hold his own opinion and discuss Tao with martial arts.Lu Bai did not dare to respond directly to Yue Buqun's invitation to the martial arts competition, he really lost his reputation.

Everyone was thinking in general, since Lu Bai said so, he naturally believed that Feng Buping's sword skills were not as good as Yue Buqun's, so he could only evade his words.

Of course Feng Buping also knew what Lu Bai meant by saying this, and couldn't help blushing.

But this time he wanted to regain the position of head of the Huashan faction, it all depended on the face of the Songshan faction, so even though he was despised, he could only grit his teeth and endure it, not daring to openly oppose Lu Bai's statement.

Ding Mian also said: "Senior brother Lu is right. A sword has no eyes. No matter who is injured, it is not good. Mr. Yue must obey the order of our left leader and take the initiative to let go of the head of the Huashan faction. Don't use the knife. Move the sword, there is hurt and kindness."

He ignored everyone's contemptuous eyes, and said to Lin Pingzhi: "Mr. Lin said just now that he has two proposals. What is the second proposal?"

After hearing Lin Pingzhi's first suggestion, everyone felt that it was quite reliable. Although it is simple and crude to judge the master of Huashan sect by the level of swordsmanship, it is still a good idea.He was also curious about what the second suggestion Lin Pingzhi had in mind would be.

Lin Pingzhi said: "Although my second proposal is also related to the Huashan faction, it does not determine the ownership of the head of the Huashan faction. It just has something to do with our confrontation here today."

Ding Mian said, "Mr. Lin, please tell me."

Lin Pingzhi said: "As I said just now, it's not good for us outsiders to meddle in the internal affairs of your Wuyue Sword Sect. It's not good for me to meddle, nor is this senior Xing. And these masked gentlemen want to seek revenge. I will not stand still with the six heroes of the Taogu Six Immortals."

"But I have another proposal, which is to bet on me and the six great heroes of the Six Immortals of Peach Valley. If we lose the bet, then we will leave the mountain immediately and ignore the affairs on the Taiyi Immortal Mountain. How do you want to deal with Huashan Mountain? Pai, we'll never do it again."

Lin Pingzhi's offer is not without generous conditions.Lu Bai and Ding Mian were moved after hearing this, and asked, "How do you want to bet, my lord?"

The Six Immortals of Peach Valley like to gamble the most, and they also said in unison: "How do you want to gamble?"

Lin Pingzhi looked at "Peach Blossom Tribulation" Xing Tianyi, and said: "I want to compete with Senior Xing. This match does not determine the ownership of the head of the Huashan School, but whether I and the Six Immortals of Peach Valley will go down immediately. "

Xing Tianyi didn't expect that Lin Pingzhi would suddenly challenge him, so he squinted at Lin Ping and said, "You don't know the heights of the sky and the earth, you want to compete with me?"

Lu Bai and Ding Mian were surprised when they heard Lin Pingzhi's proposal, but they were extremely happy.

They were choked by Lin Pingzhi's words and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Unexpectedly, the young man proposed to compete with the old senior Xing himself, and he used the immediate descending of the mountain as a bargaining chip.

If Lin Pingzhi and the Six Immortals of Peach Valley descended from the mountain, then the Huashan School would be at the mercy of others.

The two were afraid that Xing Tian would look down on this young man because of his arrogance and arrogance, so they hurriedly said: "You are really arrogant, although you are very good in movement, you have seriously injured Cong Buqi, a master of the Huashan School of Sword Sect. Mr. Cong. But how can you be the opponent of Senior Xing? If Mr. Xing does not teach you a lesson, I think you always think that he is a paper tiger, and you think you can really hold a candle to him."

Although they were praising Xing Tianyi in their words, they meant to encourage Xing Tianyi to take over the competition, otherwise Lin Pingzhi really thought he was better than this old man.

Xing Tianyi lived to be almost a hundred years old, so he naturally knew that these two were trying to provoke him.Of course, he didn't care about such false fame, and he didn't care whether Lin Pingzhi thought he was stronger than the old man in his heart.

But there was still a strange light in his eyes.

Because when Lin Pingzhi said that he wanted to compete with him, he drew out his portable sword, moved his body, and lightly drew a sword light in the air.

With fiery eyes, Xing Tian said, "Evil warding off swordsmanship? What's your relationship with Lin Yuantu?"

Lin Pingzhi said: "Lin Yuantu is my great-grandfather. Seniors can see my family's swordsmanship just with my sword. He really deserves to be a master of swordsmanship."

Xing Tianyi nodded, and said: "Well, I also thought that you are just a young and ignorant prodigal who learns a little bit of swordsmanship and is defiant... So you are the heir of the evil swordsmanship. After I have mastered the swordsmanship, I have no chance to learn Lin Yuantu's evildoers As for the swordsmanship, I went to find his heir later, but found that his swordsmanship was mediocre. I thought the Lin family's evil swordsmanship was just a vain name, and I felt that I was not interested in it. Just now, looking at your sword moves, there is indeed something weird. "

Lin Pingzhi said: "Has the senior agreed to compete with me?"

Xing Tian nodded, and said calmly: "I will compete with you. After the competition, I have seen the Lin family's evil swordsmanship. No matter whether I win or lose, I will truly retreat to this mountain from now on, and I will never get involved in Jianghu affairs."

Lu Bai and Ding Mian were very sorry when they heard the words, they had finally hired this hermit expert, and naturally they didn't want him to retire after just a match.

But as long as this senior punished Lin Pingzhi, then Lin Pingzhi would not regret it no matter what he faced so many people.As long as he and the Six Immortals of Peach Valley go down the mountain, the man in black can attack the Huashan faction immediately.When the time comes to capture Yue Buqun and his wife, the head of the sect will naturally be given to Feng Buping, and the purpose of the Songshan group's trip will be achieved.

So they all said: "This invitation to Senior Xing to come out is an unkind invitation. Naturally, I will not dare to disturb your old man's cultivation in the future."

Xing Tianyi ignored them and just looked at Lin Pingzhi. The dead branch in his hand was like a sharp sword under the infusion of internal energy.

Lin Pingzhi smiled and said: "Senior, don't rush to start, I have not finished the bet that I just said."

With a cold snort, Xing Tian stopped his movements for the time being.

Lu Bai shouted: "Boy, senior Xing agreed to compete with a junior like you, that's already a great respect for you. But you still have so many things to say-don't you don't know what's good or bad."

Lin Pingzhi said: "Mr. Lu, what you said is right. I am a young boy, and I am not a swordsmanship master like Master Yue who can be ranked among the top in the world. Why should I compare swords with Senior Xing on an equal footing?" I just said a bet, which means I bet that I can make [-] strokes under the hands of the senior. If the senior can beat me within [-] strokes, then I will naturally bring these six heroes down the mountain, and I will not care about the Huashan faction any more .”

Lin Pingzhi has never had the burden of being a martial arts hero. The way of thinking of a young man who was a questioner in his previous life made him strive to do everything in the most efficient way with the highest success rate, so this meeting proposed such a competition that is beneficial to him. Way.

Lu Bai and Ding Mian hurriedly said: "This is impossible, the contest will naturally be won, so there is no such thing as a bet that you will not lose after [-] strokes..."

Lin Pingzhi looked at them, and said with a smile: "You mean, I, a brat, am also worthy of discussing victory and defeat with Senior Xing?"

Ding Mian said: "Of course not. Senior Xing's swordsmanship is superb. You don't need to compare to know that you must be defeated. It's just...just..."

He said two buts, which naturally meant that Senior Xing might not be able to defeat you within thirty moves.But if he said this, it would inevitably mean to despise Xing Tianyi, so how could he say everything?
Xing Tian laughed at himself at this time: "you are right, young man. Anyway, you are many generations behind me. If a young man like you and I have a fair confrontation with swords, then swords in this life are considered as equals." I went to Liangou——if I can't beat you within thirty moves, I'll be considered a loser."

When he said this, Lu Bai and Ding Mian naturally didn't dare to say anything.

Fortunately, they had great confidence in this old man, but in fact, they had 1 doubts in their hearts that Lin Pingzhi could really perform thirty moves in his hands.

A bet that seems to have no direct relationship with the Huashan faction but is actually related to the life and death of the Huashan faction was settled like this.

During the period, the Six Immortals of Peach Valley liked to watch people bet. Although the bet brought all six of them, they were still happy to watch the excitement and did not stop Lin Pingzhi.

Of course, these six people must make some high-level comments. For example, the six people discussed in a serious manner why Lin Pingzhi proposed a 29-stroke bet, not 31 and a half strokes, nor [-] strokes; for example, Xing Tian thought why? For example, if you want to say that you have practiced swords for decades, you have practiced dogs, not pigs or mules and donkeys; for example...

If these six people's redundant words are unfolded one by one, the judge may be bored, so I will not list them in detail.

At this time, Lin Pingzhi pointed his shadow-bearing sword at Xing Tianyi, and said, "Old Xing, please."

Xing Tian drew a gossip-like pattern with a dead branch, making the spiritual platform of the seer feel empty for no reason.

The dead branch was facing down again, hiding his vigor, and signaled Lin Pingzhi to make the first move.

Lin Pingzhi said that the old man was being polite, and his left wrist shook lightly. The first move did not use the weird and evil swordsmanship to ward off evil, but lightly raised his left hand without the sword, making a palm gesture.

This palm is a palm technique in the Prajna palm method, which calls for the five aggregates to be empty, and the main point of the palm gesture is an empty word, but it is a false move, which is quite in line with the compassionate meaning of Buddhism.

Lin Pingzhi started with this move because he saw that Xing Tian was being polite, so he responded with a false move.

Xing Tian, ​​with his knowledge, naturally understood this move, his eyes showed surprise, as if he was wondering why Lin Pingzhi knew Shaolin palm technique.

Lin Pingzhi slashed towards Xing Tian's left waist with this false palm move, and he had to wait for his reaction before making a move according to the situation.

But Xing Tianyi saw through this move, he did not dodge or dodge, and let Lin Pingzhi attack.

Lin Pingzhi saw that the opponent didn't evade, and he didn't use his palm technique as usual, so he just smiled and said: "The old man is so calm." He changed the direction of his palm and slashed hard at the opponent's front door.

This move is a more powerful one in the Prajna palm technique, and it is called "Flip Hands to Subdue Demons".After the previous false move to lure the opponent to dodge, the sudden use of this fierce palm move can often achieve immediate success.

But Xing Tianyi was motionless just now, so now he can deal with this move calmly.His body was still motionless, only the dead branch in his hand was turned from bottom to top, and he held it lightly in front of him.

Lin Pingzhi thought about it for a moment: "My palm is striking at your face. How can you block it with this rotten wood? You blocked my palm, and I palmed the wind." No matter how powerful you are, you may not be able to withstand the internal force on your face. Hey, since you are so arrogant, I will not be polite."

Thinking this way in his heart, Lin Pingzhi will never show mercy in his hands, even if he has [-]% Arhat Kung Fu, he will use this palm without hesitation.

But before his palm touched the dead branch in the opponent's hand, he suddenly felt a chill spread to his hand.

Lin Pingzhi realized in a flash: "This is due to the sharpness of the dead branches. If I force myself to attack with the palm of my hand, I may suffer a lot of trauma."

Thinking of this, Lin Pingzhi withdrew his palm, stopped his moves and retreated.

Everyone on the field saw him attacking twice with no success, but Xing Tian only gently turned the dead branch around and pronounced the sentence.

Everyone in the Huashan faction showed worried expressions, among them Yue Lingshan was most concerned.

The Songshan faction all showed smiles, thinking: "You don't know good and bad, you just want to find such a sword god to compete with, isn't it just asking for trouble? Senior Xing only raised his hand lightly. Then scare you away, if he hits with all his strength, how can you survive?"

As if he heard everyone's voices, Xing Tian took advantage of his power and refused to spare others. Seeing Lin Pingzhi's makeshift palm, the dead branch pointed forward and pierced Lin Pingzhi's eyebrows like a sharp blade.

At this moment Lin Pingzhi already knew that his sword state was very good, indeed he had reached the point where every blade of grass and every tree could be used as a sword, if he was stabbed between the eyebrows, his life would be in danger.

So he used the Sunflower Treasure Dharma to dodge the thorn.

However, Xing Tian used this stab to be incomparably exquisite, and implied the back move, so he predicted the direction where Lin Pingzhi would avoid, the second attack came first, and the sword move change was already waiting.

Of the enemies that Lin Pingzhi has encountered since his time travelling, Mrs. Baihua has the highest martial arts skills, but Mrs. Baihua uses silver needles to plot against them, so it is not considered a direct confrontation with the enemy.

To tell the truth about the confrontation, this expert who uses dead branches as swords is much stronger than the people Lin Pingzhi faced before.

In the past, when Lin Pingzhi fought against the enemy, he only needed to rely on the ghostly body skills of the Sunflower Book to avoid the opponent's moves, and he would be safe and sound.

For example, when Xing Tian made a stab like this, he had already planned the direction to avoid, Lin Pingzhi had never thought of it before.

It can be said that the faster Lin Pingzhi hides, the faster he dies.

Seeing that the dead branch was again thrown towards his chest, Lin Pingzhi stimulated his body's potential at this critical moment, and when his strength was exhausted, he dodged to the side for the second time, avoiding this inevitable move.

Lin Pingzhi and Xing Tianyi exclaimed at the same time as both stabbed and avoided.

Xing Tian marveled at Lin Ping's superb body skills, and he was as fast as lightning, faster than dead branches.

Lin Pingzhi lamented that this man's swordsmanship has indeed reached the level of supernatural powers, which he still finds unbelievable based on his current understanding of martial arts.

Except for the disciples of the Huashan School, the onlookers were all first-class martial arts masters, and they were already dumbfounded when they saw this round of confrontation between the two of them.

Xing Tian's swordsmanship to predict the enemy's machine at will certainly made them feel amazing.

And Lin Pingzhi's ghostly movement made them feel even more terrifying.

At the moment, these people forgot to even applaud, and just watched the battle intently.

Xing Tian had practiced swordsmanship in the mountains for many years, and when he encountered Lin Pingzhi's body style, he was naturally delighted to see Liexin, and said: "I still have a set of swordsmanship, it depends on whether you can avoid it."

Lin Pingzhi smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that as long as he couldn't avoid it, he might be disemboweled by the other party's dead branches.

But the arrow is on the string and has to be fired, and there is no possibility of regretting to stop fighting after the matter is over.

He took a deep breath and said, "Let me learn from seniors' brilliant tricks."

Xing Tian shook the dead branches like a sword humming.

His men jumped up into the air, almost ten feet into the air.

Lin Pingzhi knew that the opponent's move must have the power of thunder, so he didn't dare to underestimate it, and focused his attention on the sky.

After Xing Tianyi ascended to the highest point, with the force of the descent, the dead branches pulled out several "sword flowers" in the air, and finally attacked Lin Pingzhi.

Lin Pingzhi snorted coldly, but this time he didn't avoid it. After Chengyingjian flicked a few times, he used an evil sword technique to counterattack Xing Tianyi.

In terms of the complexity and change of swordsmanship, perhaps Xing Tian's nearly one hundred years of swordplay is better than Xing Tian.

But if the speed of the moves is unimaginable, what martial arts in the world can compare with the evil swordsmanship?

Everyone present saw Lin Pingzhi move, and then he used the sword in his hand to use a strange sword technique and stabbed Xing Tianyi back.

Yue Buqun looked at this sword technique, his eyes glowed with blazing light: "Is this the Lin family's evil sword technique? It turned out to be so wonderful. No wonder the Qingcheng faction risked being despised by their peers, and wanted to Leading his disciples to Fuzhou in a big way to snatch the sword manual of the Lin family. This young man can display his swordsmanship to such an extent at this age, if this swordsmanship is lucky enough to fall into my hands..."

Of course he didn't know at the moment that he needed to come from the palace to practice the evil-disciplining swordsmanship—of course he knew that he must still have the same idea, and he was only thinking about how to find a way to obtain the evil-disciplining swordsmanship.

Linghu Chong is also a person with a very high level of comprehension. At this moment, his junior brother didn't want him to miss the exciting competition, so he carried him on a stretcher to the side where he could see the sword competition, so he also took Lin Pingzhi and Xing Tianyi into account.

Linghu Chong couldn't help thinking: "Master said when he passed on Zixia's magical skills to me a few days ago, the world's martial arts are based on qi, based on internal strength, and they pay attention to accumulation and accumulation. If you pursue quick success, it is an act of obsession."

"But I think if the swordsmanship can be as weird as what Mr. Lin uses, it doesn't matter whether he has internal strength or not."

He didn't know that although the Sunflower Book doesn't emphasize internal strength, it needs to take dry medicine from the palace to learn mental skills to improve agility, otherwise it will be useless to have moves.

Everyone on the field was watching Lin Pingzhi and Xing Tian compete to prove their understanding of swordsmanship.

At this moment, the confrontation between Xing Tianyi and Lin Pingzhi's move was over.
