In the past, in the secular world of Daliang, the incident where thirteen cultivators from other Western Heavens joined forces to massacre the country had long become a common scar in the hearts of all the cultivators in True Martial Heaven.
In the first few years.
Because the strength of the cultivation world in True Martial Heaven, whether in the upper echelons or the lower levels, has a huge gap compared with the cultivation worlds of the other several celestial realms.
Therefore, even if the cultivators in True Martial Heaven knew about this matter, they dared not speak out even though they were angry.
Even when the Nine Mansions were demanding the murderers from the immortal mansions of the other celestial realms, they were also extremely cautious and tried their best not to offend the forces within each celestial realm except for the thirteen arsonists.
It was not until recent years that opportunities frequently emerged in the immortal mansions everywhere in True Martial Heaven, and the cultivation bases of the major sects, aristocratic families, and even some freelance cultivators successively broke through.
In the cultivation world of True Martial Heaven, the voices advocating severe punishment for the thirteen arsonists and the sect forces behind them have become more and more.
After that, the thirteen arsonists were successively brought to justice.
Even the sect forces behind them were more or less punished.
However, because conclusive evidence of his arson could never be found for this Lu Xibai, even though cultivators in True Martial Heaven had long since calculated with divination techniques that he was the last arsonist, they still could not bring him to justice.
Precisely because of this, after hearing the name Lu Xibai, whether it was the freelance cultivators in True Martial Heaven or the disciples of the sects and aristocratic families, they extremely rarely stood on the same front.
For a time, the voices of abuse and scolding on the stands in the Western Zhou were incessant.
But that Lu Xibai completely ignored these one after another of abuse.
I saw him carrying a long sword in his hand, with a smile on his face, walking step by step towards the center of the sword flat.
That appearance didn’t seem like being accused, but rather like being praised.
Seeing this, the crowd’s curses became more and more, and louder and louder.
And that Lu Xibai, in the midst of these curses, walked to the center of the sword flat and stood still in place with a calm face.
Subsequently, I saw him smiling and clasping his fists at the mountain-guard elder, Elder Yu, and said:
Lu Xibai from Wangyou Valley greets Elder Yu.
Elder Yu nodded with a cold face and said:
If you are ready, you can choose your opponent for the sword challenge.
Elder Yu immediately added another sentence and said:
Of course, you can also give up the qualification for this sword challenge.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xibai grinned, a hint of fierce look flashed in his eyes, and then turned his head to sweep a glance at the more than twenty cultivators in the west of the sword flat.
Finally, his gaze fell on a cultivator from Huangfeng Valley in Zhenwu Heaven, and then he pointed at that little cultivator and said to Elder Yu behind him without looking back:
Lu Xibai from Wangyou Valley has the audacity to challenge Lu You from Huangfeng Valley!
After this sword challenge sound rang out, the hubbub on the west stand of Yunlou suddenly stopped.
Pairs of eyes all fell on that Lu You from Huangfeng Valley.
This Lu You looks like a teenager, and he doesn’t seem to be very old.
After realizing that he was being watched by thousands of pairs of eyes from Western Zhou, he scratched his head shyly, looking a bit reserved.
Zhao Linglong seems to know this Lu You. After hearing that the person Lu Xibai challenged was him, she immediately showed a worried look and said:
This Lu You’s spiritual bone rank is the golden spiritual bone. Judging from the speed of his cultivation, he is indeed a rare genius disciple in Huangfeng Valley in recent years.
But like the newly rising young generation of cultivators in recent years, the speed of their cultivation progress is really too fast, and their realm is far less stable than ours at that time, let alone their combat power.
What Zhao Linglong said now is actually the reason why the cultivators from Zhenwu Tian were defeated by the cultivators from the other several heavens in the later several yesterday.
Fairy Lingyue nodded at this time and said:
You cultivators from Zhenwu Tian have been suppressed by the Zhenwu Barrier for tens of thousands of years. Now that the barrier is suddenly lifted, the suppressed divine souls and physiques rebound instantly, resulting in the illusion of a sudden increase in cultivation.
Actually, in the other several heavens, breaking through the Huajing realm, or at least breaking through the Wangtian realm, is not a difficult thing for cultivators with normal spiritual bones.
The reason why there are no Huajing realm cultivators in Zhenwu Tian is just because they are suppressed by the barrier of the Great Emperor Zhenwu.
Therefore, after the Barrier was lifted, the second extreme situation soon emerged – the cultivation speed was briefly improved.
And just as Zhao Linglong and Fairy Lingyue were discussing, on the stands of the Western Zhou Cloud Tower, voices of urging rang out one after another –
“Lu You, what are you still hesitating about? Promise him!”
“Yes, promise him!”
“This guy has a sworn hatred with our True Martial Heaven cultivators. Kill him and avenge the millions of dead common people in Daliang!”
Seeing the increasing number of urging voices, Elder Yu of Qilin Peak also spoke up to remind that Lu You at this time:
“Lu You, whether to take the sword or not depends entirely on you. Don’t pay attention to other people’s words.”
Upon hearing this, Lu You blushed and cupped his hands to Elder Yu and said gratefully:
“What Elder Yu said is right.”
Then, in the midst of the successive urging voices, the seemingly shy Lu You suddenly took a deep breath and then resolutely took a step forward and said:
“Lu You, take the sword!”
Seeing this, Fairy Lingyue nodded:
“This Lu You from Huangfeng Valley looks shy and weak, but unexpectedly he still took the sword.”
In yesterday’s competition, there were quite a few True Martial Heaven cultivators who, because they were afraid of the cultivators from the other few worlds, finally didn’t dare to take the sword.
After hearing that Lu You agreed to take the sword, the True Martial Heaven cultivators on the stands of the Western Zhou suddenly burst into cheers.
In the midst of this cheering, Lu You’s figure flickered, using the wind control technique to slowly walk to the center of the sword flat. Then, at a position ten zhang away from Lu Xibai, he stood still.
Seeing this, Elder Yu of Qilin Peak immediately confirmed to the two of them and said:
“If both of you are ready, this sword questioning can begin.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xibai placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, smiled and nodded at Lu You and said:
“Fellow Daoist Lu, are you ready?”
Lu You reached out and held the hilt of the long sword on his back, and then nodded and said:
“Please enlighten me!”
Seeing that both of them were already ready, Elder Yu immediately announced in a loud voice: “The first match today, Lu Xibai of Wangyou Valley questions Lu You!”
“Zheng!”
Almost at the moment when Elder Yu’s voice fell, two sword chirping sounds rang out loudly over the sword flat at the same time.
“Boom!”
But what everyone didn’t expect was that just as the sword chirping sound, a sword light lit up in front of Lu You and a blood mist exploded on his back With .
By the time the audience on the Western Zhou stand reacted, Lu You had already bang and fallen backwards onto the sword flat with his head up.
“Alas!”
“Lost again!”
For a while, the Zhenwu Tian cultivators on the Western Zhou stand let out a chorus of lamentation.
And that Lu Xibai, with a provocative look on his face, cupped his hands towards the Western Zhou grandstand and said, “Sorry for the laughter, everyone.”
This blatant provocation immediately elicited angry roars from the True Martial Heaven cultivators on the Western Zhou grandstand.
After seeing this scene, Elder Yu at the back could only helplessly stand up and then loudly announced, “In this round of the Sword Questioning, the winner is Lu Xibai!”
As soon as the words fell, there was another sigh on the Western Zhou grandstand, and many True Martial Heaven cultivators had already stood up, ready to leave the grandstand.
However, Elder Yu couldn’t care much anymore and immediately loudly announced again, “Invite the True Martial Ranking to select the next Sword Questioning cultivator!”
So in the commotion of the True Martial Heaven cultivators leaving, the shadow of the True Martial Ranking once again appeared above the Sword Terrace.
Soon, several golden characters appeared on the Sword Champion Ranking — “The Sword Questioner is Lu Xibai from Forgotten Sorrow Valley.”
After seeing these words, Zhao Linglong stood up with a “whoosh” and then said in great surprise, “Why is it him again?”
