As Reflection Peak was very close to the Kun housing area, the siblings passed through layers of houses and soon arrived at the edge of the Kun housing area, the bottom of the Eight Trigrams City.
Han Ye looked at the bright stars above his head and the misty night clouds below his feet, but he did not know where the Hall of Clear Justice was. He asked his sister beside him,""Where is the Qing Law Hall? Younger sister."
Han Yu did not answer immediately. Instead, she pointed her green sleeve forward and said,"Brother, look."
Han Ye looked in the direction his sister was pointing at, and only then did he realize that there was actually a mountain hanging in the distance under the moonlight. It turned out that Han Ye had not been able to see it clearly because of the hazy night sky and the lingering clouds. Now that the stars were shining and the clouds had dispersed, Han Ye was able to see the back mountain 100 feet away.
The Peak of Reflection at the back of the mountain was different from the other hanging peaks. Apart from the Hall of Clear Justice and a bell tower that was thirty feet tall, there were no other buildings. There were more elegant grasses and ancient trees. In addition, this peak was considered the peak with the densest clouds among the peaks of Mount Shu, which added a sense of mystery. Although Reflection Peak was not as exquisite as the first peak, it was rich in spiritual energy. Although it was not as vast as the main peak, it contained all things. It was indeed a good place for people to reflect on their mistakes and cultivate.
Han Ye looked at the blurred Peak of Reflection under the night sky and couldn't help but feel happy. He had long wanted to take a closer look, but his sister, who was beside him, saw through his brother's thoughts. She urged the Blue Cloud Sword at her waist and held it horizontally in the air. She jumped onto the sword first, then her fair little hand held her brother's hand and said,"Big brother, Xiao Yu will bring you there.”
It was rare for Han Ye to be so relieved. He nodded gently at his sister, and the siblings went to the Qing Law Hall at the back of the mountain.
The exterior of the Hall of Clear Justice was not as magnificent as other halls. Instead, it was very simple. The steps had not been cleaned for many years and were covered with moss. The outer wall had not been cleaned for many years and was covered with vines. If it weren't for the tall eaves of this ancient building, one would have thought that it had become one with nature.
After entering the outer wall, the Hall of Clear Law was in front of him. There were also some houses around, and some of them were faintly lit up. Han Yu told Han Ye that those houses were specially for people who stayed in the back mountain for a long time.
Then, the siblings entered the Hall of Clear Law. Facing the door were the spiritual altars of the deceased sect leaders and elders of Mount Shu. In front of the altars was a bronze tripod used to burn incense. Below the altars were rows of praying mats for those who were meditating.
The flames on the candlesticks on both sides flickered. In the entire Qing Law Hall, there was only a white-robed old man kneeling in front of the memorial tablet. He held three incense sticks and bowed forward."Ancestral spirits of Mount Shu, I, the unworthy disciple, am here to pay my respects.”
Han Yu saw that Martial Uncle Shou Zheng was still in the hall and was extremely happy. He was about to go forward to greet her, but he was stopped by Han Ye. Han Ye shook his head at his sister with a cold expression, and his sister obediently retreated. The two continued to guard the main hall, but Shou Zheng stood up and inserted the incense into the cauldron. He looked at a memorial tablet on the left and said respectfully and seriously,"Senior Brother Changkong, although I have never met you, I have long heard of your heroic name in the martial world. Now that I have the honor of being your disciple, I can only look at your divine tablet and sigh.”
Shou Zheng sighed. After reminiscing for a while, he turned his head slightly and said indifferently,"Young Hero Han, why did you bring your sister here?”
Han Ye only expected the guard to be so focused on bowing, but he did not know that he was the leader of the martial arts world. How could he not know that there were two more people in the room? Therefore, Han Ye was slightly surprised, but he smiled calmly and said,""Senior is indeed powerful. I've only entered for a moment, but you already understood without turning your head.”
Seeing that her brother had spoken, Han Yu also raised her eyebrows and said,"Martial Uncle Shouzheng, Xiao Yu has also come to see you.”
Shou Zheng turned around and looked at the siblings in front of him with an extraordinary aura. His eyes faintly revealed some love as he said,"What's there to see about a person in his twilight years?”
Han Ye didn't beat around the bush. Instead, he knelt on the ground and bowed to Shou Zhengcheng."Junior is deeply grateful for Senior Shouzheng's help and has specially come to thank him!”
Han Ye's sudden reaction surprised everyone. Even his sister Han Yu widened her eyes in shock and said,""Brother, you…"
Shou Zheng thought for a while before saying righteously,"Stand up. I just helped you chase away some scum of the martial world. Why do you have to kneel and thank me?”
"Senior, you should thank me for drawing your sword to help.”"But this isn't the only thing I'm talking about." Han Ye lowered his head slightly.”
When Shou Zheng heard this, he knew what he meant. He couldn't help but think,"Good boy, I want to hear how you saw through it.”So he pretended to be puzzled." Since I'm not helping you out of your predicament, then what is it that's worth you giving me such a big bow?"”
" If it wasn't for the fact that we siblings had to reunite," Han Ye said unhurriedly," Senior, why would you have to suffer the pain of being punished for half a year?" Just this alone is enough to make me shed tears of gratitude.”
Shou Zheng wanted to deny it, but he said," I'm just cultivating in seclusion in the Hall of Clear Law. How can I be punished?"”
Han Ye saw that Shou Zheng still wanted to hide it at this point, so he could only get straight to the point."Because you are the black-clothed man. As an elder, you caused such a big trouble in front of the mountain gate, so you must be blamed. That's why Taoist Master Changfeng and the others sent you here. They said that you were recuperating, but in fact, you were reflecting on your mistakes. Senior."
After Han Ye finished speaking, he carefully observed Shou Zheng's facial expression, while his sister Han Yu looked at Shou Zheng with a nervous expression. In fact, she had roughly guessed that Shou Zheng was the black-robed man who had caused a ruckus at the mountain gate, but she did not dare to ask directly. Now that her brother had mentioned it, she paid attention to it again.
Shou Zheng was silent for a moment before he suddenly laughed out loud. His laughter was very bright and clear. He went forward to help Han Ye up and said to him with satisfaction,"Since ancient times, heroes come from the young. But I really want to know, when did you decide that I was the man in black?”
Han Ye smiled calmly." I met you at the foot of the mountain, so I remembered your voice, figure, and sword. Later, I saw the man in black and saw him secretly hiding a familiar sword in his arms. I suspected it was you at that time, but I was not sure. I thought that even the man in black had the intention to help us reunite, so how could I reject this affection? I might as well let him hurt me. When he injected my zhenqi, I was sure that the person was you. Because I had experienced profound zhenqi twice today, but the feeling was exactly the same.”
"Not bad." Shou Zheng placed his hands behind his back and praised sincerely,"Han Ye, to be honest, I admire you very much. You have both kindness and wisdom.”
Han Yu was naturally overjoyed when she heard Shou Zheng praise her brother. She looked at her martial uncle respectfully, but she heard Shou Zheng say to Han Yu in a 30% friendly and 70% serious tone,"Little Martial Nephew, you still need to devote yourself to cultivation in the future. You can't ask Brother Ling to block for you every time you encounter danger, right?”
"Yes!" Han Yu nodded in agreement and said,"Master and disciple are right!" Xiaoyu will definitely work harder in the future!”
Han Yu always appeared very obedient and gentle in front of her family and friends, but when she really carried things, she was unexpectedly strong. She was like a piece of jade, seemingly soft but actually hard.
Han Ye and Shou Zheng smiled warmly."Alright, you're tired today. Brother Ling and I still have something to talk about, so go back to your room and rest.”
Therefore, Han Yu left first, leaving only the two men in the Qing Law Hall.
"Senior, what do you want to say to me in private?" Han Ye asked.”
Shou Zheng wasn't in a hurry to say it. Instead, he placed his hands behind his back and slowly walked out of the hall. He looked ahead and said to Han Ye,"Follow me."
Han Ye had a vague idea of what this senior wanted to do, so he followed him out of the Hall of Clear Justice until they reached an empty pile of stone prescriptions. That night, the bright moon was high in the sky, and the stars were shining. A silver light sprinkled on the rocks and plants, and there was only the sound of cicadas in the surroundings. The night wind blew slowly, bringing with it a little coldness. The guard sat on a rock and looked at the dimly lit Eight Trigrams City, which was gradually becoming quiet. His white Taoist robe fluttered like a cloud, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, as if he had something on his mind.
Han Ye stood in front of Shou Zheng and looked at the dying man under the starry sky. He felt an inexplicable sense of respect and said calmly,""Senior, can you tell me now?”
Shou Zheng nodded." There are countless memorial tablets of the Shu Mountain seniors in the Hall of Clear Law. It's not a good place to teach."”"Did you bring the wine?" he asked bluntly.”
Han Ye was slightly startled, but he smiled calmly. He took out the wine bag from his waist and handed it to Shou Zheng."Senior, take it."
Shou Zheng took the Torch Dragon wine bag and drank it without any scruples. Perhaps he did not expect the Drunken Immortal Wine that Han Ye brought to be so delicious. His deep eyes could not help but glow. He drank until he was refreshed and as light as a fairy before he praised loudly,"Good wine!" Shou Zheng became even happier. He looked at Han Ye, who was quietly watching him drink, and handed the wine bag back to him. He said sternly,"Young man, do you want to learn sword techniques?"
Of course, Han Ye wanted to, but he said hesitantly,""I am the disciple of the King of Hell, not your disciple. Is this okay?”
"Hahahaha!" Chief Shou raised his head and laughed loudly under the moon. He said with an imposing manner,"Han Ye, although I don't like the King of Hell, I like his disciple. In his disciple, I can vaguely see my past self and the martial arts world that is full of hope!”
As he spoke, Shou Zheng's deep eyes reflected his passion and pride from back then. He said,"I'm already old. The martial arts world is declining day by day, and villains are in power. I need people like you who are persistent, loyal, and kind-hearted to change the situation! In terms of seniority, Zhang Kuo is considered my martial nephew, and you are also considered half a disciple of Mount Shu. In addition, Lin Yin is also an old friend of mine. He asked me to teach you a profound sword technique so that you can uphold justice and benefit the people!”"What?" Shouzheng asked again. Don't you want to learn some skills to avenge your parents? Or do you not want to become a swordsman who has the ability to protect others?”
Shou Zheng's words made Han Ye's blood boil, but he still frowned and said,""This one has received senior's help many times, and I will feel bad if I receive any more favors.”
"Don't stick to the secular world." Shou Zheng said seriously," I came here to be a Taoist priest because I couldn't stand too much hypocrisy. You clearly want to learn swordsmanship. Why don't you let go?" If you feel bad about drinking the wine you gave me earlier, just treat it as me giving you this sword technique as a gift, okay?”
One was the leader of the martial arts world, and the other was a murderous demon. The two opposing people emitted the same heroic aura.
Suddenly, the man remembered his master's unsettled grudge in the martial arts world, his irreconcilable enemies, Yun Meng, Xue Yan, and his sister. His body trembled slightly. He finally clenched his fists and knelt in front of Shou Zheng. He closed his eyes and bent down. His eyebrows rose, and his heart was agitated. He said in a trembling voice,""Please…please teach me sword techniques, Senior!”
"Good! Hahahaha!" Shou Zheng laughed heartily. Facing the mountain breeze, he helped Han Ye up and said,"Young man, I'm not your master, and you don't need to kneel. As long as you can use what I teach you to change the martial arts world and benefit the people, that will be the greatest respect you can show me.”After helping Han Ye up, Shou Zheng sat back on the rock and said,""Most of your master's martial arts originated from Mount Shu, but many of them were learned in a disorderly manner. I have already discovered this when I fought with you. With your current skills, you are more than enough to deal with ordinary experts, but when you encounter an opponent who is on par with you, you are full of loopholes.”
Han Ye was stunned for a moment before he cupped his fists and said,""Senior, please enlighten me."
" In my opinion," Shou Zheng said solemnly," many of the sword techniques you've used are incomplete. However, most of them originated from a set of sword techniques. If you learn this set of sword techniques, it won't be difficult for you to become unrivaled in the martial arts world.”
Han Ye was quite interested in Shou Zheng's words and quickly asked,""What sword technique?"
Shouzheng said calmly,"True. Martial. Seven. Sword. Formula." Seeing that Han Ye was at a loss, he continued,""Many years ago, the leaders of the martial arts world passed down a set of martial arts known as the 'Seven Sword Qi Sects'. At that time, the son-in-law of a leader of the martial arts world became the leader of Mount Shu and passed down this martial arts to Mount Shu. After the elders of Mount Shu combined their sword arts and immortal techniques to improve it, it finally became the' True Martial Seven Sword Arts 'that shocked the world today. Since I was the leader of the martial arts world, I have long learned the Seven Secret Sword Qi as my foundation. Therefore, it is easy for me to cultivate the True Martial Seven Sword Technique on the mountain. Your master learned the incomplete sword technique from Senior Brother Changkong and passed it on to you. I believe that it is not too difficult for you to cultivate this sword technique.”
"True Martial Seven Sword Technique?" Han Ye stood on the empty rocky ground and looked at his blurry figure under the moonlight."Back then, Master didn't know its true name. He only told me to practice it well. He said that the sword techniques he taught me would one day become one. Perhaps he also vaguely understood some of the mysteries of this sword technique.”
Of course, Shou Zheng did not know what Han Ye was thinking. He only asked him,""Young man, do you want to learn this sword technique?”
Han Ye came back to his senses from his deep thoughts. He frowned and nodded solemnly at Shou Zheng.
"Yes." Shou Zheng began to concentrate on teaching the sword. He said,"Listen well, this True Martial Seven Sword Technique is divided into seven techniques, namely 'Fighting,''Ox',' Female,'' Empty','Perily',' Room 'and' Wall'. The Fighting Technique is the Ashen Pine Sword Technique, the Ox Technique is the Thunderbolt Sword Technique, the Female Technique is the Yue Maiden Sword Technique, the Empty-Secret is the Yin-Yang Sword Technique, the Perily-Secret is the Lonestar Sword Technique, the Room Technique is the Gentle Wind Sword Technique, and the Wall Technique is the Eight Desolates Sword Technique. Among them, the key to the Pinewood Sword Art was to defend with stillness, the key to the Thunderbolt Sword Art was to fight against slowness with speed, the key to the Sword Art of the Yue Maiden was to make up for the clumsy with skill, the key to the Yin-Yang Sword Art was to fight against emptiness with strength, the key to the Lonestar Sword Art was to break through danger with danger, the key to the Gentle Wind Sword Art was to subdue hardness with softness, and the key to the Eight Desolates Sword Art was to control chaos with stability. This set of sword techniques starts with the real sword. If you have a sword, use the sword. If you don't have a sword, use Qi. Every time you are familiar with one of the sword techniques, you will combine it with your Xuan Yuan Genuine Qi and form a Qi sword that corresponds to the sword technique. I'm sure you've seen its appearance.”
Han Ye recalled the scene when the men in black fought with the others and asked,""Senior, is the move you used to attack Elder Yuan Yun also part of this sword technique?”
"Yes." " That's the vigorous Sword Qi that can only be unleashed after all seven techniques of Sword Qi have been practiced to the point of being formed," Shou Zheng said solemnly." It's called the Dragon Slaying Technique."”
Han Ye memorized every word Shou Zheng said. He frowned and said,""This True Martial Seven Sword Technique is so profound?”
"Not surprising." Shou Zheng explained," Every sword technique in this set of sword techniques comes from famous masters. The Green Pine Sword Technique was comprehended by the Daoist Master Yun Yangzi, the Thunderous Sword Technique was modified from the unique skill of the famous ancient sect, the Five Thunder Gang, the Yue Lady Sword Technique was created by the Shepherd Girl of the ancient Yue State, the Yin-Yang Sword Technique was modified from the unique skill of the Eight Trigrams School, the Yin-Yang Double Absolute Sword Technique, the Lonely Star Sword Technique was taken from the ancient strange picture on the Dunhuang painting wall, the Gentle Wind Sword Technique was transformed from the Blue Water Palace's Green Wave and Clear Wind Palm, and the Eight Desolates Sword Technique was the Green Dragon Breaking Moon Bladesmanship of the evil sect, the Green Dragon Society. These sword techniques had been refined by many martial arts seniors to turn evil into good. Finally, they were known as the Seven Secrets Sword Qi that shook the martial world. Then, they were passed on to Mount Shu, where sword techniques and immortal techniques were added. Only then did they have the exquisiteness they had today.”
Han Ye listened to Shou Zheng talk about the origin of this sword art and couldn't help but admire this senior even more. He said,""Senior has vast knowledge and is unprecedented.”
Shou Zheng smiled." You flatter me. I do know a little, but a large part of it was from Master's scriptures. In terms of knowledge, I'm far from Master."”As he spoke, Shou Zheng pressed his right hand on the rock and jumped. His white robe flipped and he landed three meters behind Han Ye."Let's not waste time on small talk. Next, I'll show you my sword technique so that you can see its profoundness.”
Han Ye nodded solemnly and looked at Shou Zheng seriously. It seemed that he also wanted to learn this sword technique. Shou Zheng immediately took a stance and drew the White Dragon Sword from his back with his right hand. Under the moonlight, the White Dragon Sword was like cold autumn water. The sword body swayed with silver light, causing all the evil spirits in the surroundings to be terrified! Shouzheng held the sword in his right hand and swung the sleeve of his left hand horizontally. His white robe danced with the fiery red true energy emitted from his body, and the appearance of seven qi swords gradually appeared around his body. On them were printed the seven shining words "Dou","Niu","Female","Xu","Danger","Room", and "Wall". The seven qi swords floated up and down around their master, and it was a scene of divine power and help!
Shou Zheng placed the one-handed White Dragon Sword horizontally in front of him, closed his eyes, and said calmly,"Fighters use silence to defend their movements. When the enemy is close, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we defend. We have both attack and defense, and we wait for fatigue at ease. When you encounter an enemy who is on par with you, you can use this sword technique to force the enemy to reveal a flaw and counterattack.”Han Ye listened to Shouzheng's lecture on the sword, but he saw Shouzheng close his eyes and focus. He seemed to be ignoring what was in front of him, but in fact, he had strengthened the perception of his ears and true qi. His white robe fluttered in the mountain wind, making people feel that he was invincible.
After a while, Shou Zheng withdrew his sword momentum and suddenly opened his eyes. He held the White Dragon Sword with both hands and swung it forward while circulating his rapid movement technique."The Bull fights the slow with speed. Quickly crush their ambition, fiercely cut off their hearts, invincible, timid people will be defeated! When you meet an opponent whose movement technique or strength is inferior to yours, you can use this sword technique to win.”Han Ye saw Shou Zheng's swift and fierce attacks and remembered the analysis Lin Yin had given him when he taught him swordsmanship. He couldn't help but nod.
After slashing for a while, Shou Zheng suddenly held the sword in his right hand and made a gesture with his left hand. His movements were light as he performed a nimble and gentle sword technique and said,"Women use skill to make up for clumsiness. The seven swords were connected. This sword technique seemed ordinary, but it was connected to the heart meridians of the other six techniques. When the enemy was too close to him, this sword technique would be able to easily repel the enemy and turn the danger into safety.”
Then, Shou Zheng placed his left hand behind his back and pointed his right sword at the ground. He drew a Tai Chi pattern in the air and said,"The 'void' is to use the real to attack the void. It is also true and false. It is difficult to distinguish between darkness and light. It is to avoid the real and attack the weak to defeat the enemy. When encountering multiple enemies, he could use this sword technique flexibly, sometimes in the light and sometimes in the dark, to circle around several people with ease.”
Following that, Shouzheng clenched his left hand into a fist and held his sword in his right hand. He moved forward like a gust of wind. His figure was like a ghost, and his movements were like that of a god. As he moved forward, he swung his sword, making it unpredictable. "Danger," he said,"is to overcome danger with danger. The soldiers took a risk and broke into the enemy's formation. They were caught off guard! When facing an enemy with strong offense and defense, this sword technique can be used in conjunction with the Shu Mountain Swift Shadow Steps. The more dangerous the move, the more victory it can be exchanged for!”
Then, Shou Zheng relaxed his left hand and held the sword in his right hand. He performed a gentle sword technique and said,"The 'room' is used to overcome hardness with softness. The enemy is strong and we are weak. We can't fight him with force. We can trap him with our soft swords and wait for the opportunity to turn around. When you encounter an opponent stronger than you, or when your opponent's martial arts restrain you, you can use this sword technique to stall your opponent in exchange for time to prepare a countermeasure.”
Not long after, Shou Zheng's left palm pressed against the sword's spine and his right hand gripped the hilt of the sword. He blocked horizontally in front of his body, and the fiery-red true qi in his body suddenly bloomed. He said,"The 'wall' is used to control chaos with stability. If the attack was strong, it should be blocked with a sword. It would be as stable as Mount Tai and the enemy would be in chaos. When the opponent's attack was swift and fierce, he could use this sword technique to mobilize all the true qi in his body to block the enemy's attack. If the attack could not be broken for a long time, the opponent would panic and he would have a good opportunity.”
In the end, Shou Zheng's right hand was still holding the White Dragon Sword, while his left hand suddenly formed a blade. The qi swords around his body spun rapidly, and he shouted,"Seven Revolving Sword Qi Dragon Slaying Art!" Then, he waved his left hand, and wherever the hand blade passed, a powerful sword qi swept across. The sword qi suddenly cut a deep crack in the ground!
Shou Zheng turned around and sheathed his White Dragon Sword. The residual wind and dust caused by the Dragon Slaying Art were still flying behind him. He placed his hands behind his back and said to Han Ye in an imposing manner,""Han Ye, how is this sword technique?"
Han Ye was really a little stunned and didn't know how to answer. He could only stare blankly at Shou Zheng and the sword scar behind him. He opened his eyes and said,""Good…good swordsmanship!"
Shou Zheng seemed to see through Han Ye's thoughts and smiled with a dignified and slightly amiable tone.""After looking at it for so long, your hands must be itching, right? Why don't you spar with me?"
Han Ye was stunned, then his clear eyes calmed down and he smiled.""Humph, I have the same intention."
"Then there's no need to be polite. Come on.”After Shou Zheng finished speaking, the words on the seven qi swords around him flashed even brighter.
Thus, the old and the young began to discuss swordsmanship under the bright moonlight on Mount Shu's Reflection Peak. The night was hazy and the stars were shining, but the faint sound of swords could be heard. The young learned swordsmanship from the old, and the old taught the young. It was very enjoyable!
