When the lingering sound of the bell of Fenghai County's Sword-holding Palace echoed for a long time, in the middle of the sky in Liyou City, Taichu City, Yinghuang Province, Zhang Siyun's face was gloomy, and there was an indescribable emotional fire burning in his heart.
.
As the recognized leader of the young generation in Yinghuangzhou, he has long been accustomed to being the center of attention. Today, for one of the few times in his life, he has become a green leaf to set off others and watch others shine brightly.
This made him feel mixed emotions, especially when he thought that his mother and master were still waiting for his good news in Fenghai County, he hated Xu Qing even more for ruining his good deeds, and he hated Xu Qing to the core.
After all, if Xu Qingyin hadn't tricked him, he was sure to achieve what he wanted this time. His goal was not the life lamp of the wooden house, but another item in the wooden house.
But now, everything has come to nothing. I don’t know how many years it will take until I hold the sword and lift the Taichu Liyou Pillar again.
"I'm going to disappoint my mother."
Zhang Siyun murmured in his heart that he didn't care about his master, he only cared about his mother's feelings.
Because his father died young and his mother was strict with him, he has been in awe of her since he was a child.
He had been practicing very hard. He did not dare to disappoint the other party. In his heart, he longed for his mother to be proud of him. This thought turned into a raging fire in his heart at this moment, burning his internal organs, causing him to raise his head and die.
Staring at Xu Qing hard.
Xu Qing didn't pay attention to Zhang Siyun's gaze. At this moment, he raised his head and looked at the statue of the Great Emperor. After a long time, he bowed deeply to the statue of the Great Emperor.
All the sword holders in the sky are staring at it, and all the monks on the earth are paying attention.
In addition to being shocked, everyone was also filled with strong curiosity. They wanted to know what the emperor asked and what Xu Qing answered.
Especially the captain felt like there were countless cats scratching in his heart. On the one hand, he felt aggrieved, and on the other hand, he was trying to figure out how to extract Fang Qing's words so that he could know the answer.
Amid this complex emotional upheaval, the selection of the sword bearer has come to an end.
As the statue of the Great Emperor dissipated, as the colorful stairs became blurred, and as the glow of the sky faded, everything returned to normal.
Xu Qing and others were also told that they would rush to the Sword Holding Palace in Fenghai County within one year.
There, they will receive the inheritance of sword holders and the assignment of positions, and will have endless opportunities.
This is extremely important to every new sword holder. The former can increase their combat power a lot, and the latter represents the orthodoxy of the human race.
In addition, the capital of Fenghai County, as the core of the county, gathers the outstanding talents from various states in Fenghai County.
There are many people from all ethnic groups among them, and the geniuses of each ethnic group are usually there to influence the situation.
It is to become famous and reach the top of a county.
This is also the idea of many talented people. If they want to fight for a future and become the ruler of the ancient emperor, they will naturally want to conquer all directions when they are young.
In this way, you can get more opportunities and good luck, so that you can be far ahead all the way, and finally completely suppress an era.
This is what any ancient emperor has done. Compared with the county capital, Yinghuangzhou can only be regarded as a remote area.
This place is too far away from the county capital, separated by several states. Although there are large-scale teleports, the sword-wielding court will not use them for newly promoted sword-wielders...
No matter what their status is, as long as they are no bigger than the Sword Holding Court, then the new sword holders must go on their own.
Because the Sword-holding Palace is not a place to grow flowers, the journey is also a kind of hardship.
"So we need to reserve time in advance. According to your calculations, senior brother and I, we can use some public teleportation arrays in other states on the way. In this case, we should be able to barely reach it in about eight months." "The specific journey and plan are unknown.
We need to worry about it. The Eight Sects Alliance has produced some swordsmen over the years, so the alliance has also set up branch sects in Fenghai County, which can be regarded as a place to station in the county." "After we return to the alliance, there will naturally be people to help us arrange it.
, after all, our identities are different now."
After the sword bearer selection was completed, Xue Lianzi held a celebration banquet for Xu Qing and the captain at the headquarters of the Eight Sects Alliance. At this moment, when the banquet was in full swing, the captain dragged Xu Qing outside.
He coughed and spoke in a low voice. "Look, little Aqing, this road to heaven started with your senior brother and me leading you on it. Do you want to express your gratitude to me? Brother, don't talk about spiritual stones before."
It hurts my feelings, Bing Zhi, just tell me your answer."
Xu Qing drank some wine at the banquet and looked up at the night sky.
As the wind and snow blew and fell on him, he felt very comfortable, so he turned to look at the captain. "Elder brother, your eyes and ears have grown." The captain looked proud.
"Of course, I can grow this thing as long as I want. It's amazing. By the way, little A-Qing, you..."
Xu Qing took out an apple and handed it to the captain, "Captain, congratulations on becoming a sword bearer."
The captain instinctively took a bite and was about to continue questioning. Xu Qing simply lay down on the snowdrift, looking at the stars and the remnant face of the god looming in the silent silence. He took out a bottle of wine and drank it.
A big mouthful.
"Elder brother, what exactly are gods?"
After hearing this, the captain looked up at the sky, thought for a while, and sat on the snow next to Xu Qing, eating an apple, and spoke slowly.
"God, hehe."
"Is it delicious?" the captain asked proudly.
Xu Qing smiled. He knew that this was definitely not what the captain said in front of the statue of the Great Emperor. Otherwise, it would not be only one foot.
The wind and snow became heavier and heavier, Xu Qing stopped talking, he lay there and let the snowflakes fall on his face
I remembered what I said in front of the statue of the Great Emperor.
Then he laughed, sat up and spat a few feet away, and it fell on the snow in the distance.
The captain was stunned and spat out. Seeing that Xu Qing didn't say anything, he knew that he couldn't rush the matter, so he suppressed his inner curiosity. After eating the apple, he took out Taichu City's unique frozen pears and ate them.
It was very quiet outside, and there was a rare sense of peace in the night sky amid the falling snowflakes.
Only the sound of the burning campfire not far away and the laughter coming from the tent floated away leisurely.
I don't know when Yanyan ran over secretly. Seeing Xu Qing and the captain in the snow, she quickly sat down next to Xu Qing, curled up and lay down, satisfied.
In the sky, Master Xue Lianzi and Master Dongyou are standing over you, looking down at the three people on the snow.
"It's better to be young." Xue Lianzi sighed...
"Also, what did you say this boy answered? The adults in the sword-holding court today all hinted that I should ask." Xue Lianzi looked curious.
Master Dongyou glanced at him coldly.
Xue Lianzi blinked, coughed, and changed his title. "What did you say your grandson-in-law answered?"
The wrinkles on Master Dongyou's face were also filled with smiles, and he nodded slightly.
"After returning to the alliance, you can ask your son-in-law to ask his disciple."
"It's still early. The adults in the Sword-holding Court asked us to stay a few more days. On the one hand, Xu Qing and Chen Erniu want to understand the human royal level skills. In addition, it seems that there is something going on in the Sword-holding Court and they need their help.
.”
Time passes.
Most of the monks from various sects who gathered in Taichu Liyou City from all directions left.
The originally bustling city has become much empty, with only the casual cultivators still here, continuing to comprehend the spiritual seal of war from the Taichu Liyou Pillar.
The people from the Eight Sects Alliance did not leave, nor did Li Tujiao, nor did the Taisi Xianmen.
Because the reward for being first in Taichu Li Youzhu’s ranking was previously distributed.
It is extremely rare to gain insights into the human royal level skills.
The place of enlightenment is also arranged at the top of Taichu Liyou Pillar, in the Sword-holding Court in the sky.
This is also the first time Xu Qing has set foot here. Here, Xu Qing also saw Qingqiu.
It's just that the other party didn't realize it with them, but sat silently in front of a hall, as if waiting for something.
She saw Xu Qing and the captain, turned her head and snorted.
Xu Qing's face was expressionless, and the captain also snorted. The two of them soon left the place, and were eventually taken to an open area by the sword holder.
The red liquid flows on the ground here, outlines a huge magic circle, emits red light and also reflects the place in the blood light.
In the middle of the front stands a large black stone with gray iron chains tied to it.
Through the gap in the iron chain, you can see a sword carved on the big stone.
A very ordinary, very ordinary sword.
But the moment they looked at it, both Xu Qing and the captain were shocked.
They felt an earth-shattering momentum spreading from the carved sword.
The two looked at each other and saw the shock and desire in each other's eyes.
They know that this is the place where the human race's imperial skills are learned.
Even the Golden Crow behind Xu Qing was trembling at this moment. After meeting other emperors for the first time, they did not reveal themselves and seemed to be in awe.
At the same time here, Xu Qing also saw Zhang Siyun.
The other party arrived earlier than them. At this moment, he was sitting next to the big stone, closing his eyes and comprehending.
"Go over there. Each of you will have three hours to comprehend. After three hours, you will be moved out of here by the formation."
The person who brought them here was the middle-aged sword holder who presided over the ceremony.
He glanced at Xu Qing several times along the way, and after finishing speaking, he reminded him a few more words.
"Take advantage of this opportunity, because according to the sword wielder's process, it takes great military merit to realize the number of times this sword is used."
"Because the name of the emperor-level technique in front of you is..."
"Emperor Sword!"
"The Imperial Sword, also known as the Sword Bearer's Sword, was created by the Great Emperor. It is an extremely rare imperial-level skill that can be understood by many people. It is exclusive to our human race and even more exclusive to the sword holder."
"It can be said that the reason why the sword holder was able to suppress all races in the past era and still has the afterglow even today is closely related to this."
"You will understand why this is the case later." After saying that, the middle-aged sword holder turned and left.
Xu Qing and the captain quickly stepped forward without any hesitation, each chose a place to sit down cross-legged, and began to comprehend.
But compared to Xu Qing, the captain was very close. Xu Qing was frightened when he saw it, and sent a message to remind him.
"Elder brother, if you take a bite here, I guess... I will have to go to Fenghai County by myself."
The captain turned around and gave Xu Qing a resentful look.
