Wudang Mountain deserves to be the ancestral land of Taoism in this world. Every step brings breathtaking scenery. As you climb to the top of the main peak, the surroundings are even more enchanting, with deep clouds and mist, and dangerous peaks and strange rocks.
Looking back, the real dragon observation, lady slope, yellow monkey ridge and thunder god gully, all come into sight. And those eighty-one peaks in four directions are like the petals of a lotus flower, showing a bowing and worshiping posture together.
They walked and stopped as they went, Wu Xian, as if on a country outing, sauntered leisurely with Jun and arrived at the gate of the Wudang martial arts school.
Looking up, you can see the four characters "Xuanwu Dangxing" on the top.
Wu Xian squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the four big characters.
The iron hook and silver slash, the brush strokes resembling dragons and snakes. At a glance, they seem merely beautiful characters, but for those who have made notable achievements in the way of the sword, there is an implicit swordsmanship in these four characters, filled with an exquisite mystery that cannot be expressed in words.
There is no doubt that these four characters were left by the Wudang ancestor Lu Dongyuan. Over seven hundred years later, the swordsmanship has never faded away. This shows the profound level of his swordsmanship.
No wonder when people talk about Li Chungang, the sword god, they always add a sentence that his swordsmanship can be compared with that of Lü Zǔ, because seven hundred years ago, Lü Zǔ was undeniably the number one figure in swordsmanship in the world.
Wu Xian became more and more interested as he looked, even beginning to compare this swordsmanship with his own, and with Li Chunyang's "Sword Opening the Celestial Gate," in an attempt to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and to innovate.
Buzzing——————————————————
Suddenly, a resounding sword whistle echoed in his ears. Wu Xian blinked slightly in surprise, then turned to look. He saw Jun Feixian also staring at that plaque. The expression on his face was slightly bewildered, but a swordsmanship similar to the four characters "Xuanwu Dangxing" began to rise around him.
"This talent... is it not enough to say that she is the mother of the world's famous swords? Or is Jiang Nili's swordsmanship talent originally inherited from her?"
Wu Xian thought about it in his heart, and he felt it was possible.
After all, though Jiang Nili is in the disguise of the reincarnation of the Emperor's beloved concubine, her swordsmanship talent doesn't just appear out of thin air.
Chu Huang Jiang Ren is unlikely, if he really had that talent, he should have been discovered by the officials long ago. Why would he be as weak as this now?
Instead, Jun Feixian, during the past few days when Wu Xian checked her bones for detection, accidentally found that her talent in martial arts is extremely good. Some basic knowledge, are one study and master quickly.
The only regret is that her physique has already solidified, and she started practicing martial arts at the age of nineteen, which is a bit late.
And if one wants to achieve something, they must put in more hard work and time, and also cooperate with similar methods such as the Yi Jing Spine Training Chapter or the Yi Jin Jing to improve the physique, so that they can potentially step into the first-class realm.
Of course, if one wants to be lazy, save time and water the extra effort, there is a more convenient method, that is to directly use the "qi machine" to inject into the top.
For example, the protagonist Xu Fengning from the original work received the Dahuangting cultivation from the Wudang sect master Wang Chonglou on this Wudang Mountain. After that, he went from nothing to something, obtaining a solid foundation surpassing that of many first-class martial artists.
For Jun Feixian, Wu Xian originally had similar plans. Seeing her possess such extraordinary swordsmanship talent, his thoughts became more agile, thinking that perhaps he can really cultivate an outstanding female sword master.
He was thinking about this when his gaze caught something on the other side.
It turned out that a Taoist had appeared on the mountain path, at an unknown time. He was dressed in traditional robes, with clouded sandals and white socks, his hair adorned with a purple sandalwood hairpin carved with a Taiji pattern at the end.
Although the wide-sleeved robe on his body was slightly old, it was still elegant, with two long sword-shaped belts sewn into the button area of the robe, named "lotus wisdom sword".
This is a unique decoration of Wudang, seven hundred years ago Lu Dongyuan rode a crane to Wudang Mountain, with swordsmanship along the Dao created two sets of robe sleeves for Wudang's Daoist practitioners, symbolizing to cut off troubles and root out worldliness.
But the facts prove that it's all bull.
Neither did Lu Dongyuan accomplish the two things of "cutting off troubles" and "cultivating wisdom". Instead, he became infatuated with them, just like the celestial emperor in the sky. He treats reincarnation and rebirth as a trivial matter, constantly doing sit-ups between life and death, reincarnating to occupy good fortune in the world.
The reason he said he was practicing the righteous path for the heaven and earth, but in the end, all his efforts turned out to be just for that one red robe.
To put it simply, it's very romantic in the female-oriented genre, but in the male-oriented genre, it's just plain insincere.
He admitted that everything was for the woman he liked, but instead he used grandiose words as a disguise. It's unclear what kind of Tao he achieved after seven hundred years of reincarnation.
On the other side, Wang Chonglou had no idea that Wu Xian was gossiping about their Wudang sect's founder in his mind. He just saw this man who was considered the best in the world, standing there, shaking his head and sighing occasionally, and his heart suddenly became nervous. He feared that if the man were upset, he would unleash a rampage on Wudang Mountain.
So after hesitating for a long time, Wang Chonglou couldn't bear the pressure in his heart any longer and opened his mouth to bow and greet Wu Xian:
"Greetings, Your Eminence. I am Wang Chonglou, the Taoist monk of Wudang. The entire Wudang Sect is honored by your presence. However, I do not know what your noble task is, and if there is any need, please let me know. I will prepare accordingly."
Nowadays, the consolidation of Zhongyuan's ruling status has become a foregone conclusion. At most within half a year, Chu country will become the self-proclaimed master of the world. Naturally, Wudang Mountain will also fall under its jurisdiction.
And Wu Xian, as the officially recognized national advisor of Chu, holds a position of great reverence. In theory, he can manage affairs of the three teachings. In other words, he is the future superior of Wudang Mountain. So addressing him in this way now is quite fitting.
"Master Wang, you don't need to worry. Wu Xian's purpose for coming to Wudang Mountain is very simple."
Taking his eyes off "Xuanwu Dangxing", Wu Xian turned to look at the old Taoist in front of him for a while before smiling and saying, "Meeting one person, asking one question. Once these are completed, Wu will immediately leave Wudang Mountain and also send a big gift to Wudang Mountain."
"Hmm, may I ask who is it that the National Advisor wishes to meet?"
There was a vague feeling of unease in his heart, but Wang Chonglou couldn't help but ask.
Wu Xian smiled faintly: "This is a no-brainer. Of course, it's the person who can make Xuanwu Dangxing last for five hundred years."
Upon hearing this, Wang Chonglou's hand trembled slightly under his sleeve, but he maintained a calm smile and said, "National Advisor, you jest. The person who can ensure the prosperity of Xuanwu for five hundred years isn't right before us already?"
"Oh! What does that mean?"
Wu Xian raised an eyebrow and feigned curiosity.
"Haha! I've heard about the events at Longhu Mountain recently, all thanks to the National Advisor's intervention. Now, out of the four great masters of Longhu Mountain, there is only one left, and two celestial elders have one dead and one missing."
"Additionally, with the collapse of the Liyang Kingdom and its connection to the fortune of Longhu Mountain, it is bound to suffer a blow. This is an opportunity for Wudang to rise strongly, isn't it? That's right, Xuanwu Dangxing!"
Wang Chonglou chatted away, praising Wu Xian's ass cheeks again, saying that without him, Wudang might not have emerged for years, and the entire Wudang Mountain would remember his kindness and all.
Upon hearing these words, Wu Xian merely smiled and remained silent, observing Wang Chonglou's performance quietly until the other could no longer hold his dignity. Then he casually said, "Master Wang is correct. I indeed owe Wudang a mountain of favors, and if I so wished, I could indeed bring prosperity to Wudang Mountain for five hundred years."
"But today, I'm not seeing myself, but the person who set this prophecy in motion, that is to say, the founder of Wudang - Lu Zu, Lu Dongyuan."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Chonglou's face suddenly changed dramatically, and he felt the surroundings twisting and shaking as if the void was shifting. He had instantly moved from the entrance of Wudang Mountain to the Xiaohua Lianjiao Peak.
In front of the three of them, there was a little Taoist boy riding a blue cow backward, holding a book and reading it with great interest.
Wu Xian smiled softly, then raised his right index finger and lightly aimed it forward, turning it into a sharp sword energy that pierced the little Taoist boy's eyebrow.
