Chapter 16: Exorcism
On the summit of Mount Song, on the Pilgrimage Platform, Zuo Lengchan and Yue Buqun were fighting for the position of the sect leader of the Five Mountains Sect. Zuo Lengchan made the first move. His left hand moved outwards and the sword in his right hand swept to the right. He was using the sword style of Mount Song Sect to get straight to the point.
Yue Buqun took a deep breath, his long sword went straight into the palace, the tip of the sword trembled non-stop. Halfway through the sword, it suddenly turned upwards. It was a move of the Huashan Sword Art,'Green Mountain Faint', which was faintly discernible and unpredictable.
The two of them fought, each using their own sect's sword techniques. The Mount Song Sword's atmosphere was solemn, as if thousands of troops were galloping over, with spears and halberds covering thousands of miles of yellow sand. The Huashan Sword is light and agile, just like a pair of swallows flying among the willows in spring, high and low, left and right, as you wish.
Although Yue Buqun did not show any signs of defeat, the sword qi on the worship platform was rampant, and the Mount Song Sword Technique occupied 80% of the offense. Yue Buqun tried his best not to clash with his opponent's sword, but only dodged and fought. Although his sword technique was exquisite, he was not a match for the Song Mountain Sword Technique's formation and the teacher of righteousness.
Sure enough, the two of them fought for thirty-five moves. Zuo Lengchan suddenly raised the sword in his right hand and struck out with his left palm. This palm covered the thirty-six acupoints on the upper plate of his opponent. If Yue Buqun dodged, he would be injured by the sword immediately.
However, Yue Buqun wasn't easy to deal with either. His face was filled with purple qi. He also extended his left palm and met Zuo Lengchan's palm. With a bang, the two palms collided. The force was like a wave, and there was a chill that froze the palm inch by inch. The retreating figure cried out,"Is this also the martial arts of your Mount Song Sect?”
"That's right. It's my own creation, the Ice True Qi!”
Zuo Lengchan stood proudly and replied,""How is it? If Junior Brother Yue has any martial arts that no one knows about, you can also use them!”When he spoke, he saw that Yue Buqun was not strange and knew that his Purple Cloud Divine Art was profound. He immediately brandished his long sword and stabbed towards Yue Buqun.
Yue Buqun blocked the attack with his sword, but Zuo Lengchan's skill was profound and his sword technique was also high. After more than ten moves, he was struggling left and right, as if he could not resist. However, at this moment, his eyes were filled with a fierce light. With a flip of his hand, his sword technique changed. The sword blade suddenly stretched and retracted. The move was strange and peerless, showing signs of turning the tables.
The crowd below the stage was surprised and asked in a low voice,"What sword technique is this?" The person who asked could ask, but the person who answered could only shake his head.
Only Lin Pingzhi laughed coldly.
"Evil Repelling Sword Art!"
As a fellow practitioner of the Evil-warding Sword Art, Lin Pingzhi naturally recognized it at a glance. Yue Buqun was using the Evil-warding Sword Art. Although Yue Buqun did not have a miraculous encounter like himself, he cultivated the Purple Glow Divine Art and had a deep internal strength. After he switched to the Evil-warding Sword Art, his progress speed was far beyond that of ordinary cultivators.
On the stage, Yue Buqun's figure was like a ghost. His sword technique was extremely fast and strange. Zuo Lengchan was restrained for a moment and could only increase the speed of his sword in an attempt to catch up with Yue Buqun. Both of them moved their swords like lightning. Light and shadow intertwined, making it difficult for people to see clearly.
Sudden!
Zuo Lengchan was shocked to hear a scream as he retreated. Everyone looked towards the source of the sound and saw that his pupils had been injured by some sharp weapon. Two streams of red blood flowed out.
Yue Buqun stepped forward and came in front of Zuo Lengchan, saying: "Brother Zuo, your eyes are injured and you're already disabled. What right do you have to compete with me for the position of sect master?”
"You…"
Countless thoughts came to Zuo Lengchan's mind. He thought about how he had spent so much effort to plan the merger of the five sects, but he never thought that his plan would end up in vain. He failed on the verge of success and fell into a trap instead. His blood surged and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yue Buqun turned his body slightly and had already dodged to the side, his face couldn't help but reveal a smile.
Zuo Lengchan shook his right hand and broke his sword. He threw the broken sword aside and laughed loudly. His laughter echoed far and wide, echoing in the valley. As he laughed, he turned around and strode off the arena.
Seeing this, several disciples of Mount Song Sect hurriedly rushed over to support him and said in unison,"Master, the Huashan Sect has attacked us from the shadows. We might as well destroy them in one fell swoop.”
Zuo Lengchan said loudly," A real man is a man of his word. Since it's a sword competition, we'll fight for the victory with our own martial arts. Mr. Yue's martial arts are far better than mine. We should naturally worship him as the sect master!”
Among the Five Mountains Sword Sect and the crowd who came to Mount Song to watch the show, there were many people who fawned over the powerful. When they heard Zuo Lengchan's words, they immediately cheered loudly,""We are all willing to accept Mr. Yue as the sect master of the Five Mountains Sect!”
Among them, the disciples of the Huashan Sect shouted the loudest. However, Yue Buqun's victory was beyond everyone's expectations. Therefore, the disciples of the Huashan Sect could not believe that what they saw was the truth.
"Thank you for your kindness. Although I'm not talented, I can't refuse.”
Yue Buqun cupped his hands and said,"The Five Mountains Faction is newly created today, and there are many things waiting to be done. I can only lead them." The affairs of Mount Heng would still be managed by Mr. Mo, the affairs of Mount Heng would still be managed by Linghu Chong, and the affairs of Mount Tai would be jointly managed by Taoist Priest Yu Jizi and Taoist Brother Tianmen. As for Mount Song…Zuo Shixiong's eyes were not good, so he could only ask Tang Ying 'e, Lu Bai, and Zuo Shixiong to take care of the daily affairs.”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned. They didn't expect that after Yue Buqun ascended to the position of sect leader, he didn't wantonly gather forces, but instead returned all the power to the sect leaders. This action caused many people to secretly admire him.
"Humph!"
Only Lin Pingzhi let out a cold snort. Compared to most people here, he, who knew the plot, naturally knew that Old Yue's move was just to buy people's hearts.
The merging of the five mountains seemed to be going smoothly, but in fact, the newly formed Five Mountains Sect was actually a plate of loose sand. Mount Hua, Mount Song, Mount Tai, Mount Heng, and Mount Heng had each been passed down for many years. How could they be easily merged into one? Although they were now called the Five Mountains Sect, they were still independent.
If the Huashan Sect was strong enough, like the Mount Song Sect, not only was it powerful, but it also had spies planted in various sects to rope in reinforcements. Old Yue's position as the Five Mountains Sect Master could still be effective.
Unfortunately, the Huashan Sect had been weak for many years. Even though Old Yue had defeated Zuo Lengchan with the Evil Repelling Swordsmanship, he did not have the manpower to command the five sects. He had no choice but to take a step back and return the power of the sects in exchange for his reputation.
This was the typical method of a hypocritical politician!
Regarding Yue Buqun's actions, Lin Pingzhi actually still had some appreciation. However, appreciation was appreciation, but in the end, it was difficult to hide his dislike for the current Yue Buqun. Because, Yue Buqun, who was seriously affected by the Evil Repelling Sword Art, was a freak, a freak that was evolving towards Dongfang Bubai!
In fact, other than him, Ling Huchong and Ren Yingying, who was hiding among the female disciples of Mount Heng, must have noticed Old Yue's strange behavior.
Although Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying had never seen the Evil-warding Swordsmanship, they had seen Dongfang Bubai and his Sunflower Manual.
The Evil Repelling Sword Art and the Sunflower Manual both originated from the same source and had many similarities. Therefore, they could see that the kung fu Yue Buqun used to deal with Zuo Lengchan was very similar to Dongfang Bubai's.
When he thought of the time at the Black Wood Cliff, he, Ren Woxing, and Xiang Wentian had joined forces, but they had been beaten to the point where they had no strength to fight back. Ling Huchong couldn't help but feel a little fearful of Yue Buqun. For this reason, even when Yue Buqun invited him to return to Mount Hua to recuperate, he had politely declined after some hesitation.
Seeing that Ling Huchong had rejected his invitation, Yue Buqun's eyes flashed with a cold light, but his face was still smiling. He borrowed the mountain gate of Mount Song Sect and invited the group of heroes present to the gathering.
Just as the group of heroes started to move, Lin Pingzhi quietly came to the front of the Qingcheng Monastery. He didn't waste any time and said to Yu Canghai directly,"Monastery Head Yu, didn't you want my Lin family's Evil Repelling Sword Art? Tonight, at midnight, we will meet on the Pilgrimage Platform to settle our feud. If you can defeat me, I will give you the Evil-Warding Sword Manual.”Without waiting for Yu Canghai's reply, he turned around and left. He believed that Yu Canghai would definitely come to meet him for the sake of the Evil Repelling Swordsmanship…
