Two, three, four, the sword picks the heroes(1/2)
Since Taizu, Shaolin has been suppressed by the imperial court many times, and the temple has been half-closed since then. Especially after Emperor Taizu rectified the martial arts world, Shaolin Temple rarely walked in the world to avoid suspicion.
But regardless of its foundation or inheritance, Shaolin is well-deserved as the number one sect in the world. Even Wudang, which was highly praised by Taizu and Chengzu, was slightly behind him.
On this day, the Wuyue Sword Sect in the Jianghu, together with Wudang and other famous sects, as well as all the big and small forces in the Jianghu, gathered on Shaoshi Mountain.
The Righteous Alliance broke through Heimuya and captured Wo Xing, the director of the Demon Sect alive. This was an unprecedented victory. Shaolin acted as a host and invited heroes from all over the world to participate in the Demon Trial Conference. They wanted to review the crimes of the Sun and Moon Sect and declare the end of the world.
Entering a new era.
Naturally, this Demon Trial Conference is also for the underworld evil spirits. The deployment of the Sun Moon God Sect is spread all over the country, and Ren Woxing is the spiritual leader of the evil heretics. By judging one Ren Woxing, he can completely suppress the underworld tree for hundreds of years.
of arrogance.
Shaolin set up a battle array in front of the Main Hall. In addition to the righteous sects, there were also some people in black robes sitting on one side, who were members of the Sun Moon God Sect.
Among them were Xiang Wentian, Lan Fenghuang, and Ren Yingying. They had already arrived here, but they didn't look like they were captured.
"Dear benefactors, today our temple is holding a demon trial meeting to discuss the dispute between black and white over the past century." Master Fang Zheng still habitually started with "Amitabha", and then he looked compassionate.
After hearing this, some people in the world yelled below: "The Sun Moon God Sect has committed serious crimes. Let me kill people like this. What else do we need to discuss? Just cut them into pieces by a thousand swords. It's not an exaggeration!"
"Yes, yes!"
These small forces were the most oppressed by the Sun Moon God Sect, so the crowd was very excited at this time. Fortunately, Ren Woxing was imprisoned in the dungeon of the Shaolin Temple, otherwise these people would probably go up and tear him apart.
Fang Zheng said "Amitabha", but he used the Buddhist lion's roar. The grand Buddha's name resounded in people's hearts, making everyone stop.
"Dear donors, please be quiet for a moment. You all have deep grudges against this leader. But there is only one leader Ren. Our temple has been chanting sutras all night these days, hoping to wash away the sins of leader Ren. But he is really
You are too stubborn, and I, the Buddha, will not save people who are not destined to be here. But if you want to find a leader, you have to decide in a certain way."
Fang Zheng's words are very clear. In fact, seeking revenge from Ren Woxing is secondary. After all, he is just one person, not the entire Sun and Moon Sect. But being able to step on Ren Woxing and rise to power is of great political significance.
Dongfang Bubai's death, Ren Woxing was captured alive, and the collapse of the Sun Moon God Sect meant that a new world order would be determined. Under such a big reshuffle, this Demon Trial Conference has extraordinary significance.
.
The new Five Mountains Sword Sect, or the old Shaolin and Wudang, are all involved in this competition, and everyone wants to take advantage of the future situation.
The affairs of Jianghu people, Jianghu theory.
There is no doubt that everyone plans to use a martial arts competition to decide who can finally take away Ren Woxing. Of course, this also includes the friends of the Sun and Moon God Sect.
Xiang Wentian, Ren Yingying, Lan Fenghuang, etc. knew that this was a trap, and Zhengdao sent them here just to let others step on them and rise to the top. But they could not just watch and let me be slaughtered.
Just at the beginning of the military competition, someone in the audience suddenly shouted to have a look first and let me do it. A group of people around him also followed suit.
The crowd was excited, and Fang Zheng discussed it with Chongxu and the heads of the Five Mountains. Seeing that most people agreed, he asked the disciples in the temple to invite Ren Woxing over.
At this time, Ren Woxing was still wearing the same clothes as before, but he looked very embarrassed. His hair was disheveled and gray, and his hands were still wearing shackles, just like a prisoner.
Ren Yingying and others looked excited for a while, but were unable to step forward to save him.
"Master Ren went crazy when he was performing his exercises before. Now he is delirious and almost crazy. In order to prevent him from hurting others, we put these shackles on him. No wonder." Fang Zheng explained, pointing to the heavy wooden shackles.
road.
When Ren Woxing heard the sound, he raised his head and showed a silly smile. No one knew whether he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, but that was not important.
At the beginning of the competition, the eminent monks from the Shaolin Temple will stand up. This is also to prevent some idle forces from wasting time, so in order to participate in the final competition, you must first pass the entry level of Shaolin.
This eminent monk of the Shaolin Temple is also a first-class master and is proficient in the Vajra Palm of Shaolin.
The heads of the Five Mountains Sword Sect or the masters of the same generation came on stage respectively and went through the formalities. After this first round, only Wudang, Shaolin and the Seven Five Mountains Sect were shortlisted.
The rest of the forces were just here to go through the motions and watch the fun. When the seven families competed, the Hengshan Party was the first to face the Hengshan Party. Since the death of the Hengshan Party’s second-in-command Liu Zhengfeng, Mr. Mo Da has also been missing.
Mr. Mo Da’s junior brother Lu Lianrong will be in charge.
Lu Lianrong was nicknamed the "Golden Eyed Eagle", but his Hengshan swordsmanship was much worse than that of his two senior brothers.
Master Dingyi of the Hengshan School defeated him easily.
So among the Five Sacred Sword Sects, the Hengshan Sect is now the weakest. Everyone is thinking that the influence of the Hengshan Sect will decline a lot from now on.
At this moment, the Sun Moon Sect stood up. Lan Fenghuang invited Ying to come on stage to deal with Master Dingyi of the Hengshan Sect.
As the leader of the Five Poison Sect, she is not weak in martial arts. It just so happens that the Hengshan Sect is also a female, so this move is reasonable.
Shaolin promised them that they can challenge the masters of the right path at any time. As long as they can defeat the seven sects, they can take me away as they please.
The people of the Sun and Moon God Sect faced off against the Hengshan Sect of the Five Mountains Sword Sect. All the righteous people in the audience were shouting and cheering for the Hengshan Sect. With their halo momentum, the Sun and Moon God Sect had already lost everything.
But Lan Fenghuang was not disturbed at all. She swung out her long whip and fought with Master Dingyi's Ten Thousand Flowers Sword Technique.
Her whip was like a snake, while Dingyi's sword was focused on defense. After fighting for dozens of rounds, Lan Phoenix's internal strength was much inferior, and he couldn't use poisonous snakes, so his strength was not as good as Master Dingyi's.
The whip was cut by the sword and he was defeated.
Master Dingyi was also a kind-hearted person. He didn't make things difficult for her, but just pointed it out as soon as possible.
The first battle of the Sun Moon God Sect ended in failure.
Immediately afterwards, there was an internal fight in the Five Mountains. Master Dingxian of the Hengshan sect faced off against the female knight Ning Zhongze of the Huashan sect. Ning Zhongze was known as unparalleled, and Ning's sword had its own uniqueness.
Although Master Dingxian's Ten Thousand Flowers Sword Technique also made it airtight, Ning Nuxia, the master's sword, was so exquisite that it caught him by surprise, caught him unprepared, and narrowly defeated him with half a move.
Among the five mountains, there are only three left. Huashan, Songshan and Taishan. Look at these three. No one has the intention to continue to take action.
Yue Buqun, Zuo Lengchan, and Tianmen Taoist all had evil intentions and were unwilling to take the first step and expose their base.
The three families were all very humble, and at this time the Wudang Clan couldn't stand it anymore.
Taoist Master Chongxu smiled and said: "Since you are all so humble, let the old Taoist teach you the clever tricks of Taoist Brother Tianmen!"
There is still a connection between Wudang and Taishan.
The ancestral heritage of the Taishan Sect also comes from the Longmen Sect, a branch of the Quanzhen Sect, and Wudang also considers itself to be the Quanzhen Taoist lineage. Therefore, the Taoist traditions of the two sects come from the same lineage.
Taoist Tianmen had no choice but to give in, so he could only go up to the stage to compete with Chongxu. But he also knew that he was definitely no match for Chongxu.
"Brother Tianmen, these Eighteen Pans of Taishan are indeed very stable." Chongxu commented while swimming with his sword.
His Tai Chi sword technique operates freely and can turn speed into slowness. Taoist Taimen's Taishan sword technique also follows the path of clumsy over skill. Compared with swords, these two are extremely slow. It seems that
It's like two old men doing Tai Chi, which is very unappreciative.
But people with advanced martial arts skills can see the martial arts principles and kendo rules hidden in the slow manner of these two people.
When it comes to swordsmanship, Taoist Tianmen is still a long way behind Taoist Chongxu. Among those who use swords in the world, Chongxu should be ranked among the top three.
"Taoist brother Chongxu has reached the state of Tai Chi sword. I admire you." Taoist Tianmen put away his iron sword and cupped his hands.
Chongxu also chuckled, "Brother Tianmen's swordsmanship is also extremely exquisite!"
Just when the two were complimenting each other and being very happy, a discordant voice came out.
"Old people's gestures also deserve such praise."
Everyone looked towards the voice and saw a lazy young man sitting on a stone lion not far away. I wonder if they were too serious about watching the competition just now, but no one noticed when this man came.
But several people on the scene who knew him were shocked, wondering how could he come?
"Who are you, your Excellency? Why are you uttering such arrogant words? Do you dare to come up and make gestures?" With Tianmen Taoist's violent temper, he couldn't bear the point from a young boy like this.
"Hurrah!"
Gu Changfeng stood up and a Yan Xing Gong came onto the field, holding a long sword and said, "Can you use the Taishan Sect's Five Great Swords?"
Taoist Tianmen snorted: "Nature will do it."
"Okay, let's ask for advice."
After Gu Changfeng finished speaking, he sent his long sword forward, aiming straight at the opponent.
Tianmen Taoist didn't expect his sword to be so fast, so he hurriedly parried, using Taishan's eighteen-pan posture, and resisted eighteen swords from the opponent one after another, but was actually beaten back eighteen steps.
On the other hand, the other party looked calm, as if he had not tried his best. Tianmen Taoist panicked, wondering where this strange boy came from, whether he was an enemy or a friend.
"If you don't use your Five Great Swords, you won't have a chance." Gu Changfeng said with a smile. He deflected the sword and deliberately created a flaw so that the Tianmen Taoist could counterattack.
Taoist Tianmen didn't think too much. He stabbed out with his long sword, five sword strikes in a row. The sword moves of each sword had an ancient meaning. The sword techniques were simple, but also contained strange changes.
When Gu Changfeng was defending, he was also silently observing the opponent's moves. After a moment, he understood the secret, shook his head and said: "Your five master swords are not as good as the original Taishan swordsmanship."
Tianmen Taoist was already in a hurry, but when he heard what he said, he became even more furious: "You boy, how dare you speak such arrogant words. These Five Great Swords were created by my master, how can you stop talking nonsense..."
..."
Before he finished speaking, the opponent suddenly thrust his sword towards his chest, the sword light flashed and the sword made a buzzing sound.
Tianmen Taoist retreated hastily. Fortunately, although he was fat, he relied on his strong lightness skills and immediately jumped over ten feet away to avoid this move.
He was in a cold sweat at this time, because he recognized this move as soon as he raised his hand. It was the unique skill of the Taishan Sect - Seven Stars Falling into the Sky.
He had seen his master use it back then, but it was a pity that no one in his generation could learn it.
"You, how could you..." Taoist Tianmen lost his voice, his fingers pointing at Gu Changfeng were trembling slightly, but thinking of this occasion, he did not dare to say anything.
He glanced at Gu Changfeng angrily and saw a harmless smile on his face, wondering if he still had something to do with his Taishan sect? But he could only wait until he could ask more about it.
"Your Excellency's swordsmanship is superb, and I, Taoist Tianmen, are willing to be defeated." Taoist Tianmen is good at this, and he can afford to lose.
Everyone on the sidelines of the battle was also talking a lot at this time, wondering what happened to the young man who suddenly came and actually defeated the long-famous leader of the Taishan Sect, Tianmen Taoist. You must know that Tianmen Taoist is a real swordsman.
