Chapter 335 The Betrayer from Seven Thousand Years Ago

August 25th.

Song Lin gradually adapted to life in the mountains.

Relatively speaking, the current Jianya Xuanfeng is much colder than it was back then. The brothers and sisters hardly come to each other, just like in the ordinary academy, without a master-disciple relationship, they are not that close.

What was even more strange was that, in the past ten days, apart from Tao Sanxiao, no one from the top management of Jianya Xuanfeng had taken the initiative to look for him. This attitude was really a bit strange.

"At least I recast the Gengjin Sword Monument!"

While Song Lin was wondering, Shui Qianrou came to him again.

"Junior brother, the great elder of the Sword Transmission Pavilion has worked hard to be humble and finally exchanged a disciple with golden spiritual roots from Douzhan Xuanfeng. Today he is going to pass on the Ten Absolute Golden Light Daluo Sword Canon. Do you want to go and take a look?"

"Go, of course!"

Song Lin couldn't wait to fly away and rushed to the Sword-Asking Cliff.

Shui Qianrou quickly followed and asked, "How's your recent progress in cultivation? Have you mastered the new Ten Absolute Golden Lights?"

"It will probably take another half a year for the 'spiritual light' of the Divine Palace to reach the 'Five Mountains' like a series of terraces. As for the Ten Absolute Golden Lights, I don't know where they came from."

Song Lin looked bewildered.

He said one month as 'half a year'. As for that ray of Ten Absolute Golden Light, he would not reveal his trump card.

"Oh, half a year has passed quickly! It took me ten years to practice in the three realms of the Divine Mansion." Shui Qianrou immediately comforted.

"Senior Sister..." Song Lin couldn't help feeling guilty.

This silly senior sister's personality is somewhat similar to Iris's, but she lacks some of the experience in the world and is not as smart as her.

After a while.

The Sword-Asking Cliff is just around the corner.

The two men lowered their swords and landed to the side. Dozens of people around them immediately looked at Song Lin and greeted him proactively.

Song Lin also responded politely.

He glanced at Hou Yuanxi and Xie Muxue and saw the same thing.

The two girls nodded in response, which was considered a greeting.

Since that day, the relationship between the two parties has come to an end.

at this time.

A very tall boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old was sitting cross-legged in front of the Gengjin Sword Monument, meditating.

Strands of golden sword light fell, but they had not yet merged into his body to cleanse his meridians and marrow.

A long time passed.

The Gengjin Sword Monument suddenly shook, pushing the young man dozens of meters away.

"Failed."

Everyone sighed and left.

The young man stood up and walked to an old man with a look of disappointment on his face.

"That's not necessary. If it doesn't work this time, just try again next time." The Grand Elder of the Sword Pavilion patted his shoulder and comforted him.

"Great Elder, I want to go back to Douzhan Xuanfeng."

The young man said so.

"you……"

The elder who was in charge of passing on the skills paused, and immediately pointed at his head, angrily saying: "How can you accomplish anything if you are so impatient! Get out! If you want to go back, get out right now!"

"Yes."

The boy lowered his head and trotted away quickly.

When passing by Song Lin, he seemed to look at him deeply with a strange look.

"You'd better forget about the matter of Jianya Xuanfeng completely. Otherwise... no one in the world can endure the pain of having thousands of swords piercing your heart." The great elder suddenly said meaningfully.

"Yes."

The young man shuddered all over and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look again.

Song Lin looked at his back silently, with a thoughtful look on his face.

It seems that there is something hidden in the deal between Jianya Xuanfeng and Douzhan Xuanfeng. But can this young man really keep a secret? Although the fact that he recast the Gengjin Sword Monument was not a big secret.

Song Lin didn't know.

Just as the tall young man walked to the gate of Jianya Xuanfeng Mountain, an old man reeking of alcohol suddenly appeared.

"Little guy, drink this bowl of wine before you leave."

"Drunken Immortal! I...I don't want to drink...No!"

"Hey, this is not up to you!"

Tao San smiled strangely, grabbed the boy by the throat, and poured a bowl of water into his mouth.

Gulp~Gulp~~
A few moments.

The tall boy fell to the ground, his eyes clear yet hazy.

"I... who am I... yes, I am Lin Jiuqu from Douzhan Xuanfeng... what did I come here for today? Strange... I can't remember clearly..."

He wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth and walked slowly towards the foot of the mountain.

As for the people I met and the things I saw today, I have completely forgotten them.

The strongest liquor in the world is called Love Potion.

It can make people forget their sorrows, forget life and death, and almost everything except emotions.

On the sword cliff.

The great elder who was in charge of passing on the skills waved towards Song Lin.

"Zhou Yuan, come here."

"Great Elder."

Song Lin walked slowly forward and stood in front of the old man with white hair and beard.

at this time.

The people around had already dispersed, even Shui Qianrou left tactfully.

The core of Jianya Xuanfeng will never be them, the true disciples, but the eight major sword pavilions that have been passed down from generation to generation, as well as Zuixianju, an independent sword pavilion.

Now it seems that Song Lin is also qualified to enter the core of Jianya.

The Great Elder looked Song Lin up and down for a long while, and suddenly asked: "Let me ask you, have you ever blamed Jian Ya for not paying enough attention to you?"

"Master, this trip has its own profound meaning, and I dare not make any rash comments."

Song Lin was calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Master."

The elder suddenly laughed and asked, "Now do you know why that kid couldn't get the sword monument's approval and inherit the Gengjin sword body?"

"It should be... not enough qualifications?"

Song Lin looked a little confused.

The Great Elder couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

"You, you have extraordinary talent but you don't know it. The sword of the fifth generation can only be practiced by those who are gifted. Over the years, some people have been obsessed with this path, while others have been very open-minded."

"Look, even if this Gengjin Sword Monument has been recast, what does it matter? Among the many disciples of Jianya Xuanfeng, has anyone learned it?"

"..."

Song Lin was speechless.

It turns out that the qualifications of ordinary people are so much inferior to theirs?

Those who could enter the Donglin Immortal Cliff to practice cultivation were already top-notch in the world. However, the requirements of the Fifth Generation Sword for spiritual roots and talents were still too high.

It is much more extreme than the ordinary first-grade golden body.

It is understandable that ordinary people cannot achieve this goal.

half an hour.

Song Lin sighed, bowed and said, "I know what the Great Elder meant. I will study hard and practice diligently in the future, and will not be complacent or arrogant because of this."

he thinks.

The Grand Elder of the Sword Pavilion did not come to see him until today because he was waiting for this incident to remind him.

"Hey, you're wrong."

The Great Elder waved his hands repeatedly and said, "In fact, I have said so much because I want to tell you that the situation of Jianya today is different from that of the past."

"then?"

Song Lin couldn't help but be stunned.

"You can activate the Gengjin Sword Spirit and complete the Gengjin Sword Monument, so you must be the reincarnation of a mortal immortal. Could it be that you have forgotten what happened in the past?" The great elder smiled slightly.

Without waiting for Song Lin to answer, he continued: "I won't ask about your past life. This is a secret in everyone's heart and a taboo in the cultivation world."

"But since you are a former mortal immortal of Jianya, you can naturally skip the assessment stage and get in touch with the real Jianya Xuanfeng. You know, the current Jianya is divided into three levels: contemporary disciples, previous generation true disciples, and Jian Pavilion elders."

"The current generation of disciples and true disciples are still in the assessment stage. Most of them have no master and are not qualified to accept disciples. Instead, after receiving the skills, they practice alone for several years or even decades."

"And most of the previous generation's true disciples have been truly recognized and accepted into the Sword Pavilion, with true teachers and disciples..."

Listen to the great elder's story.

Song Lin felt as if he had finally touched the core of Jianya Xuanfeng.

Compared to that year.

Today, Jian Ya seems to be very cautious. It is not enough to go through the Mirror of Integrity on the Road of Integrity, and he actually has to spend decades or even hundreds of years to test his descendants.

I really don’t know what they have been through in the past.

"…Only the Red Dust Immortals are different. Tongming Sword Heart, Tianshang Sword Bone, Gengjin Sword Body, etc., are all practitioners of the Five Generations Sword. Each of them has at least achieved the Dharmakāya, and is a Sword Immortal."

"Every sword immortal of Jianya Xuanfeng is trustworthy."

The Great Elder continued speaking.

Hearing this, Song Lin said, "Great Elder, everyone's personality changes after reincarnation. How can you be sure that I am still myself?"

"How can I be sure that I will not bring disaster to Jianya in this life?"

"Hahaha~~"

The Great Elder burst into laughter: "Reincarnation can make people forget everything and wash away the karma of their past lives, but there is only one thing that will never be completely forgotten."

"What is it?"

Song Lin asked curiously.

"emotion."

The Great Elder said meaningfully: "Only emotions can make people remember them for three lifetimes. Family love, friendship, and love are all emotions, and the love between a master and a disciple is also an emotion."

"The Red Dust Immortal of Jianya possesses the innate spiritual root of the Five-Life Sword. He has practiced for at least three lifetimes. He lived and died for Jianya. I don't believe that such a person can harm his fellow disciples!"

"But your situation is a little special. We really don't understand why you can recast the Gengjin Sword Monument without a Gengjin Sword Body. I think you may have gone through more than three lives in the past few years before you found the immortal path again."

"In the past ten days, the elders of the eight sword pavilions have discussed and unanimously determined that you are qualified to pass the assessment and become a true disciple. Moreover..."

What's more, the Lord of Liuxian Peak is the guarantor.

Even if they do not believe in themselves, they must believe in the ancestor of revival.

"I see."

Song Lin gradually understood.

A vague idea came into his mind.

Seven thousand years ago, some heart-wrenching events must have happened at Jianya Xuanfeng, so the people of Jianya would learn from the lesson and arrange such a strict screening process.

A true disciple is not a true disciple. Only after passing the assessment of the top leaders of Jianya and being unanimously recognized can he become a true "true disciple".

"This is the True Disciple Order, you must keep it well."

The great elder who was in charge of passing on the skills took out a sword order and handed it to Song Lin.

The words "Zhou Yuan" were engraved on it, as well as the time and identity of Song Lin's ascent to the mountain. It looked no different from the previous True Sword Order.

The Great Elder said: "This order can be integrated with the mind and spirit. After refining, there will be mutual induction. In addition to my Jianya Xuanfeng, all the peaks in the east have it."

"When you meet a true fellow disciple in the future, you will be able to identify them."

He explained: "Don't blame us. In recent years, Donglin Xianya has been developing and growing, and the people are mixed. If we don't restrict it, I'm afraid the Taoism will disappear long ago."

The way of inheritance of Donglin Xianya has never been those peerless skills, but the immortal philosophy that lasts for a long time.

"Alas~~ Even so, the 'immortal chivalry' spirit that I cultivated with great difficulty has long since dissipated in the various worldly desires."

"Over the years, my Jianya Xuanfeng is a little better. The top leaders of the other four Xuanfengs have long been infiltrated by various parties. However, their core inheritance has always been passed down from master to disciple. The children of the aristocratic families and clans in Cangzhou are still outside the real core."

"Child, from now on, the inheritance of the Ten Absolute Golden Lights will be on you! Your existence will be a major trump card for Jianya Xuanfeng in the future..."

The great elder talked on and on.

But at this moment, Song Lin's thoughts had already drifted away.

Drifted to seven thousand years ago.

Who betrayed them back then?

This has led to the current situation.

He even had a feeling that seven thousand years later, there was still an invisible hand stirring up the situation in the land of Donglin. Donglin Xianya had also been fighting against the enemies hiding in the dark over the years.

It looks like a magnificent scene of flowers in full bloom, but in fact it is like oil boiling over a raging fire.

"I thought everything was clear, but now it's covered with a layer of fog. It turns out that practicing on this mountain is not safe anymore... It seems that we should go back seven thousand years as soon as possible to see what happened at that time."

Think of this.

Song Lin's originally calm heart couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Or in other words - a sense of crisis.
