In front of the gate of Wusheng Pavilion headquarters in Luoyang City, Zhu Biao met Lu Bu, who was in charge of the specific affairs here.
"Master!"
The first time he saw Zhu Biao, Lu Bu bowed directly to him and performed a standard military salute.
Lu Bu is now a second-grade general in the Ming Dynasty, and he was named a champion candidate for his performance in the zombie world.
It can be said that Lu Bu has now become a rising star in the Ming Dynasty's military.
It is precisely because of this that Lu Bu's loyalty to the Ming Empire is unquestionable.
Only in the Ming Dynasty can all his talents and martial arts be fully unleashed, and he doesn't have to worry about the danger of his achievements overpowering his master.
Because no matter how strong he is, there is still a Crown Prince above him.
When he fought Zhu Biao for the first time, Zhu Biao still needed the cooperation of some extraordinary people to defeat him, but now Zhu Biao can easily suppress him without even using all his strength.
"Feng Xian, get up quickly!"
Zhu Biao helped Lu Bu up, and at the same time glanced at the people following Lu Bu and asked, "These are all strangers. Please introduce them to me quickly."
"Sir, these friends are all members of the royal family. Because they have no qualifications for cultivating immortals, they all joined my Wusheng Pavilion to practice martial arts. They are considered the first generation of disciples in my Wusheng Pavilion, and they are the best among them."
While Lu Bu was introducing Zhu Biao, he also gave Zhu Biao a look that could only be understood but not explained.
Zhu Biao instantly understood that this was the price paid by the Song Dynasty royal family for allowing Wusheng Pavilion to establish its power in Luoyang, the sacred capital, recruit disciples, and even give it political endorsement.
In the Wusheng Pavilion in Luoyang City, there must be members of the Song Dynasty royal family as senior officials, and the Song Dynasty royal family must guarantee part of the control over Wusheng Pavilion.
Lu Bu had already submitted a memorial to this, so Zhu Biao was not surprised. He greeted these people with a smile.
"I heard that the young master's martial arts cultivation is even better than the teacher's. I wonder if we can see it?" When Zhu Biao followed Lu Bu into the Wusheng Pavilion and sat down, Zhao Yuan, who had the highest cultivation level among them, suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, Lu Bu couldn't help but frown slightly. Zhao Yuan's actions at this moment were not discussed with him in advance!
He was about to speak, but Zhu Biao waved his hand first and said: "Of course, I know why you did this. This trial of Shushan Sword Tomb gave me two places in Wusheng Pavilion, and one of them is naturally Fengxian.
, the other one was originally supposed to be given to you, but I suddenly appeared and took your place, are you not convinced?"
Zhao Yuan fell silent immediately after hearing this.
Although anyone can go to the Shushan Sword Tomb trial, if you are invited to go, you can skip the previous tests and enter the Sword Tomb directly.
And as long as you can enter the sword tomb, it means that you can definitely get a sword spirit to recognize you as its master.
Although Zhao Yuan does not expect to be able to obtain an immortal sword and recognize his master, and become a disciple of Shushan in one step, there are not only immortal swords in the Shushan Sword Tomb, but there are also a large number of magic weapon-level spiritual swords during the period. As long as he can get a magic weapon-level spiritual sword.
Accepting it will greatly increase his strength, and he can even compete for his father's position with this.
He had planned well, but Zhu Biao's sudden appearance took away the spot that should have belonged to him, completely disrupting all his plans.
This made Zhao Yuan feel extremely aggrieved.
Nowadays, the Wusheng Pavilion is highly regarded by the royal family of the Song Dynasty and even by Buddhist and Taoist sects. No one will "do justice" for him for this mere matter of a trial quota in the Shushan Sword Tomb.
But as the first talented martial artist under Lu Bu to advance to the third level, he was still extremely proud in his heart.
Since he couldn't overwhelm others with force, he would just show his true strength and have a fair fight with this young master who appeared from nowhere.
Presumably, if he was defeated miserably at his own hands, he would not be ashamed to snatch the trial quota that was originally his.
Zhu Biao naturally did not know the extremely rich psychological activities of the Song Dynasty prince at this moment. He stood up directly, stretched his hands and feet and looked at Zhao Yuandao: "Since you want to see what I am capable of, take action!"
"Just in time to let me see where your true limit of strength is!"
Hearing the tone of Zhu Biao's words at this moment, Zhao Yuan's blood pressure instantly rose. Good guy, this so-called young master is even crazier than his teacher's tone.
He took a deep breath, and an invisible cold air suddenly burst out around him, and even formed a storm of ice crystals visible to the naked eye around him.
"Is it the true essence of ice?" Zhu Biao narrowed his eyes slightly.
When the martial arts reaches the third level, the true energy can evolve again and become true essence.
After Zhen Yuan has practiced special martial arts techniques, he can use methods similar to those of immortal cultivators. For example, Lu Bu is currently practicing the Blood Rage Art.
This is a set of skills he created based on his own characteristics. The real energy he exerts can affect the enemy's will to fight. Some weak-willed ones will even be frightened and collapse at the first sight of Lu Bu, and completely lose the fight.
desire.
The Zhao Yuan in front of him practiced the Ice Technique, one of the high-level techniques that was researched by the Ming Dynasty and has been promoted to a certain extent.
The characteristic of this set of exercises is the Ice True Essence, which is considered to be among the top three high-level martial arts exercises developed by the Ming Dynasty.
Of course that's all.
The reason why this Ice Technique can be used as one of the popular techniques is because of its universality, which means that this set of techniques is suitable for the practice of most martial arts extraordinary people.
In fact, geniuses such as Zhu Biao and Lu Bu, who are extraordinary martial arts masters, have not practiced such universal skills.
The reason is naturally that such a technique cannot fully bring out its own martial arts talent, and the upper limit is too low.
For example, Lu Bu created his own Blood Rage Technique, while Zhu Biao also created a set of high-level martial arts techniques that suit him while practicing the Zixia Magic Technique.
He called this set of exercises True Phoenix Strength.
This is a special set of fire attribute skills.
The real fire it condenses as an attack can burn everything on the enemy, including the body and soul.
At the same time, the true phoenix's true essence also has the characteristic of immortality. As long as the true essence is not exhausted, even if he is seriously injured, he can recover in a very short time.
This is actually one of the characteristics of Zixia's magical power, but Zhu Biao used the True Phoenix Power to carry it forward.
At this moment, seeing Zhao Yuan being enveloped in an extreme cold storm and rushing toward him, Zhu Biao couldn't help but shake his head.
In his eyes, Zhao Yuan was full of flaws.
He raised his palm slightly and punched out.
His fist seemed to be very slow, but Zhao Yuan felt that he had nowhere to hide, and was directly hit in the chest by this punch.
"Boom!" The cold air on Zhao Yuan's body was directly blasted away. His whole face turned red from suppressing it, and it seemed as if a flame suddenly ignited in his body, which could burn him to ashes at any time.
"Yes, you are considered powerful among the third-grade ones!"
Zhu Biao nodded and continued: "However, I have advanced to the second level now, so it is normal that you can't beat me. Just continue to practice harder in the future!"
"Thank you for not killing me, sir!"
"I was reckless before!" Zhao Yuan felt that as Zhu Biao's words fell, the flame that seemed to be ignited in his body was finally extinguished. He couldn't help but lower his head and expressed his respect to Zhu Biao.
This world is originally a world of the weak and the strong.
The weak have no right to speak in front of the strong.
In this battle, he was the first to provoke him. If Zhu Biao killed him directly, no one would say anything, not even his father, the Holy Emperor of the Song Dynasty, would say a word for him.
After all, my father had many sons, including myself.
He would not turn against the Wusheng Pavilion, which was now at its peak, for the sake of a dead son.
"Your Highness, why don't you teach him a lesson?" Lu Bu couldn't help but ask after Zhao Yuan and others left.
If his temper were to be followed, anyone like Zhao Yuan who dared to cross him and directly challenge Zhu Biao would be killed with one slap.
"Forget it, we will still have to make a living in Luoyang from now on, and it won't be good if we get into trouble with the Song Dynasty royal family!" Zhu Biao shook his head.
"Besides, you and I are going to Shushan soon. At that time, the Wusheng Pavilion will need the royal family of the Song Dynasty to take care of you. If you kill someone's son at this time, isn't it clear that you want to break up?"
"Fengxian, please remember that if you want to run Wusheng Pavilion well, some relationships must be handled well. When acting in Luoyang City, some forces cannot act according to their temper for the time being."
Xiaoqing, who was watching the whole process from the side, couldn't help but curled his lips when he heard this.
She finally saw that Zhu Biao was full of twists and turns.
She can't be compared to her.
However, she has no interest in these things. For her, this trip to Shushan is more exciting.
"When will we set off for Shushan?" she couldn't help but ask.
Zhu Biao and Lu Bu looked at each other, and finally Zhu Biao said: "Originally there are still a few years, but we can go early. I have already contacted Qin Yong. He will greet us in Shushan and take us first.
I visited Shushan.”
"Qin Yong?" A trace of doubt flashed across Xiaoqing's face.
"That's the peak foundation-building sword cultivator who had a rough fight with the old monster from Black Mountain!"
Zhu Biao said with a smile: "We have never stopped communicating over the years. This time, Qin Yong has agreed to introduce me to Shushan and officially become a registered disciple of Shushan."
"It's him...!" A hint of understanding appeared on Xiaoqing's face.
She was not surprised at all that the guy was deceived by Zhu Biao and almost fell in love with Zhu Biao. Now he wanted to introduce Zhu Biao to Shushan.
In her opinion, although the sword cultivators in Shushan are extremely strong, their minds are really a bit stupid.
In the end, Zhu Biao took one of the invitation letters from Shushan Sword Sect to Wusheng Pavilion and went to Shushan in advance. As for Lu Bu, he had to wait a few more years to go there with the large army in Luoyang City.
To be honest, Zhu Biao was also extremely surprised that Shushan Sword Sect actually gave two invitation letters to Wusheng Pavilion.
After all, in previous years, invitations like this that could directly enter the Sword Tomb were usually only given to those big sects.
Although Wusheng Pavilion has developed well in recent years, it is only good. Compared with behemoths like Buddhism and Taoism, it is still small and pitiful.
Originally, he had been prepared to go through the entire Sword Tomb trial with the mass trialists.
It seems that it is no longer necessary now.
But Zhu Biao is still not sure whether it is a good thing or a bad thing that the Shushan Sword Sect looks at Wusheng Pavilion in a different light.
He still needs to go to Shushan and do some more research before making a conclusion.
Ten days passed quietly.
Zhu Biao finally took Xiaoqing to the southwest border of the Song Dynasty, hidden in a small city deep in the mountains.
This small town is called Cangcheng, and it is the only entrance to the Shushan realm.
After Zhu Biao arrived here, he activated the sword talisman that Qin Yong had given him, and then began to wait quietly.
Soon, in less than a quarter of an hour, Qin Yong ran over in a hurry.
Although Zhu Biao often spoke to Qin Yong in the past few decades, this was the first time the two met.
It was only then that Zhu Biao discovered that Qin Yong had reached the peak of the Divine Realm. He was only one step away from becoming an immortal.
Although it is difficult to survive the catastrophe of becoming an immortal.
But to be honest, even Zhu Biao was a little shocked by this speed of cultivation.
You must know that when Zhu Biao met him, both of them were at the peak of foundation building. But now in just a few decades, I didn't expect that Qin Yong had become a major cultivator of transformation.
This speed of cultivation is terrifying.
A person like Zhu Biao, who has no shortage of resources, has only raised his martial arts level to the second level.
Like Niwan Palace, Qihai still maintains the strength of the third grade.
"Sure enough, Shushan's inheritance is really good!" Zhu Biao couldn't help but sigh.
"I didn't expect that Brother Zhu, you are actually related to Wusheng Pavilion, and you are actually one of their leaders. I saw it wrong before!" Qin Yong gave Zhu Biao a big hug the moment he saw him,
He said with emotion at the same time.
"I had no intention of hiding this from you, Brother Qin."
"But the elders in my family told me not to expose my identity and strength prematurely, so I can only walk around the world as a doctor."
"I hope Brother Qin can forgive me."
"What did you say!"
The expression on Qin Yong's face became serious and he said: "Do we still need to apologize for our relationship?"
"Let's go, come with me to visit the inside of the sect first. After the visit, I will intercede with the elder Chuan Gong to see if I can introduce you to Shushan first and become a registered disciple."
"Brother Zhu, let me tell you a secret. In the Sword Tomb Trial a few years later, if you are not a disciple of Shushan, you will never be able to get the immortal sword and recognize it as its master. But if you become a registered disciple of Shushan, then it is possible.
Although this may still be very low, at least there is a glimmer of hope."
Hearing the secret from Qin Yong's mouth, Zhu Biao couldn't help but nodded.
He had previously wondered why Shushan was so generous, even allowing other forces to take the Immortal Sword, but now it seems that they are obviously not fools, and they have already taken precautions.
