Chapter 171: Obsessed with the future, Gao Changsheng’s Dharma image?
The vast Kunlun Mountains stretch out in a long and winding manner, and you can't see the end of them at a glance.
There are countless secrets hidden in the endless mountains.
Everyone knows the mystery of Kunlun, but few dare to enter it at will.
Not to mention those hermits and dangerous places that are unknown to the world.
Just the East and the West, the Ming Cult and the Demon Palace, are enough to scare anyone away.
You must know that these two forces, known as the Demon Cult, were the ones that opposed the righteous path at their peak.
What's more, there are other forces in the Kunlun area, including the Kunlun Sect.
Although from a geographical point of view, Kunlun is located in the Western Regions and is not considered the center of the Ming Dynasty martial arts world.
But in terms of strength, this place is no weaker than any area in the Ming Dynasty.
But perhaps it is because everyone knows how dangerous this place is.
Over the years, this area has seemed extremely peaceful.
The Kunlun Demon Palace has been dormant, and apart from occasional disputes with the Rakshasa Sect in the Western Regions, it has not caused any noise.
As a result of its decline, the Ming Cult did not make any large-scale moves, and except for a few neighboring sects such as Kunlun and Emei, it did not come into conflict with any other forces.
But now, Kunlun, which has been peaceful for a long time, has fallen into unprecedented turmoil.
In the West Kunlun Demon Palace, a conflict broke out between two terrifying and powerful men.
However, the Demon Palace is too far away after all, hidden deep in the Kunlun Mountains.
Not many people know what's going on there.
But the situation in East Kunlun is different.
Although the Mingjiao's Guangmingding is located in Kunlun, it is actually located on the outskirts of East Kunlun.
Moreover, the siege of Guangmingding by various major sects had already caused a huge uproar.
I don’t know how many people have set their sights on this area.
And now, within an area of dozens of miles.
How could the continuous sounds of grandmasters fighting not attract attention?
You have to know that in the martial arts world, the land immortals above the grand masters are in a legendary realm.
Even if people of that level take action, ordinary people will not be able to see it.
For ordinary warriors, the Grand Master is the pinnacle they can see.
In fact, it has been many years since a grandmaster-level battle has occurred in the Ming Dynasty.
After all, not every fight between martial artists will be announced so formally.
Just like before in Yanjing City, Jiumozhi and the mysterious man who used the Vajra Indestructible Art, although they fought, they did not show their movements in public. Most people in the capital did not even know that a grandmaster-level battle had taken place under their noses.
And now, two grandmaster battlefields have appeared successively near Guangmingding.
That means that at least four grand masters appeared in this area.
This can definitely be described as a martial arts event. How could it not be exciting?
For a moment, countless people were rushing madly towards the center of the battle.
All the fears about the battle between good and evil were thrown behind their minds.
And at this time.
It is dozens of miles west of Guangmingding.
Gao Changsheng was being attacked by three grand masters at the same time.
Three terrifying energy forces surrounded Gao Changsheng in the center.
Especially the broken sword in front, the fierce murderous aura even caused the surrounding space to crack into pieces.
Compared to Qi Lianhua's first two strikes, the third strike was indeed not that impressive.
If ordinary people saw this, they would probably feel that it was an anticlimactic performance.
But in fact it is not the case.
Qi Lianhua's first two strikes were one in the past and one now.
And this final third knife is naturally the future.
But everyone knows one thing: the past and present are constant, while the future is unpredictable.
Everyone’s future, or the future in everyone’s eyes, is different.
And now this broken sword represents the future that Qi Lianhua sees.
At first glance, this is absolutely incomprehensible.
In this world, everyone has expectations for the future.
Even if Qi Lianhua came with the intention of dying, after the two slashes, there was no hope of survival.
But after all, there are people he cares about, so how could he possibly see such an unreasonable future scenario?
However, Gao Changsheng did not show any unusual expression.
The eyes that looked at the knife light were filled with a hint of appreciation.
As for the attacks from the left and right sides, he didn't even glance at them from beginning to end, as if he didn't notice them at all.
"Amitabha."
Just when the two attacks were about to fall on Gao Changsheng.
A loud Buddhist chant suddenly rang out.
"Three against one, this is not what a hero does. Why don't I let this humble monk learn from you two's skills?"
Falling with the sound.
A huge flaming bridge appeared out of nowhere, stretching from east to west, directly across the sky.
Both ends of the bridge exploded simultaneously, scorching flames flashed out, instantly burning the sky red.
The vast and peaceful Buddhist name.
A vision of fire spanning heaven and earth.
In addition, he attacked the two men directly with the courage to fight one against two.
Although he has not appeared in person, his demeanor as a master has been fully displayed.
But if, at this time, someone could enter the void.
You can see a monk with a bun on his head, sweating profusely as he stimulates the internal Qi.
His hands kept waving forward like phantoms.
A series of majestic flames rolled out, it was Jiumozhi's signature flaming sword.
Although the voice seemed to ignore the enemy.
But they were two real grand masters after all.
If it's one-on-one, Jiumozhi might not have any problem.
But fighting one against two, he certainly felt extremely exhausted.
This is also the reason why Jiumozhi did not show up directly. After all, face is extremely important to Jiumozhi.
Fortunately, the person who attacked secretly did not show up either, which allowed Jiumozhi to grit his teeth and hold on.
Gao Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Of course he recognized Jiumozhi.
However, it must be said that although Jiumozhi could not take his eyes off the secret book, he still had some shortcomings.
But once something happens, the other party is really serious.
He smiled lightly and ignored the three people who were secretly competing with each other.
With Jiumozhi's ability, it is certainly impossible to defeat the two of them, but if he grits his teeth and holds on for a while, it will definitely not be a problem.
It was at this moment that the broken knife that was flying through the air seemed to have sensed the changes in its surroundings.
All the power concentrated in the blade exploded completely.
"boom."
The broken sword completely shattered.
An extremely rich aura instantly enveloped the entire venue.
"Good knife."
Several loud shouts were heard in the air at the same time.
One of them came from Jiumozhi, who was sweating profusely.
The other two came from the void in the distance.
However, it seemed that because of the sudden outburst of Duan Dao, or perhaps because of the appearance of Jiumozhi, the other two knew that they could no longer launch a surprise attack. The three people who were originally wrestling in the air withdrew their true energy almost at the same time.
Several eyes looked up into the sky at the same time.
The broken sword that was flying across the sky has completely disappeared.
Everyone knew that this meant that the sword and armor that had dominated the martial arts world for decades had completely disappeared at this moment.
However, although the knife disappeared, the aura that filled the world did not dissipate, but instead became even stronger.
"The man is gone, the sword is broken, but this extreme emotion still remains in the world. Is this the sword's obsession?"
Jiumozhi stepped out slowly and spoke softly.
He had arrived very early, so he naturally saw Qi Lianhua's first two slashes with his own eyes.
"So this third sword is the sword of obsession?"
"This is just a remaining obsession. The third sword is the sword of life that burns everything." A sonorous and powerful voice came from the sky.
The person who acted secretly couldn't help but speak.
"Amitabha, after abandoning everything and burning everything, right, when you leave, you can't avoid having some concerns?" Jiumozhi clasped his hands together and sighed silently.
They can all feel the synchronization, the extreme emotion that permeates the surroundings.
Just when a few people spoke.
The emotions in the air instantly burned.
Then a murderous aura suddenly emerged.
Even several great masters such as Jiumozhi couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.
That aura was really too sharp.
Such a sudden outburst caused even these mentally strong grandmasters to lose consciousness for a moment.
"boom."
As the aura dissipated, a blade flashing with murderous intent rose again. There was no mixed aura on the blade, only extreme sharpness, extreme murderous intent, and extreme determination.
As soon as the knife light appeared, there was no pause.
He slashed directly at Gao Changsheng.
Everything in front of the blade was instantly cut in half.
The moment the knife light appeared, Jiumozhi involuntarily retreated dozens of meters.
A look of horror appeared on his face.
In terms of real strength, Jiumozhi was already a grandmaster long ago. Moreover, he was born with a martial arts fanatic and outstanding comprehension. He had a special understanding of various martial arts, so he was definitely not weak among the grandmasters.
But Jiumozhi has a shortcoming, which is that he is too greedy.
In Buddhist terms, it is the gathering of the three poisons.
Especially when encountering secret manuals of magical skills, Jiumozhi is like a monkey picking corn in a cornfield. He will learn whatever he encounters.
This also made what he learned quite complicated and not pure enough.
Of course, in the path of martial arts, breadth and precision are actually two different paths. There is no difference between high and low. In the end, they can both lead to the same destination.
But it is obvious that Jiumozhi has not reached that point yet.
Besides, he traveled far and wide, cheated and deceived people, and the only secret books he got were those that were worth showing off, while the rest were mostly ordinary stuff that were sold on the street.
Therefore, when facing an ordinary grandmaster in battle, Jiumozhi would not be at a disadvantage.
But once he encounters that kind of ultimate, pure warrior, he will naturally be restrained.
It's not some magical martial arts skill, but the suppression of intention and force.
In this regard, Jiumozhi is relatively weak.
After all, the foundation of the Grand Master is the Dharma-Appearance, and the Dharma-Appearance is the embodiment of the artistic conception.
As for the sword and the knife, they are the two arts in the martial arts world where the ultimate warriors are most likely to emerge.
In other words, Jiumozhi doesn't like to encounter swordsmen and swordsmen. In fact, most warriors in the martial arts world don't like to fight with such people.
Of course, there are not many people in the martial arts world who can make Jiumozhi feel fearful.
After all, not everyone who practices sword or knife can be called pure.
And Qi Lianhua in front of him is of course one of them.
Especially the opponent's last blow that burned everything could only be described as horrific and terrifying.
Even in Jiumozhi's perception, this sword had undergone some changes, even faintly exceeding the limits of a grandmaster.
He had a feeling that if he were to face this knife.
No matter how he resisted, even if he used all his strength to sacrifice his Dharma image, he would probably be cut into two pieces.
Thinking of this, Jiumozhi instantly looked at Gao Changsheng, with worry in his eyes.
As for feelings, he and Gao Changsheng had only known each other for a few days, so of course it hadn't reached that level.
But in his eyes, Gao Changsheng was never just a human being. Those were books of secrets that made people drool. How could he not be worried?
Just when Jiumozhi was worried about Gao Changsheng's safety.
Standing under the blade, facing the sword light that even the grand masters feared, Gao Changsheng raised his head and smiled.
"Good knife."
Gao Changsheng did not take action immediately, but instead opened his mouth to praise.
"The sword of the future, this is the future of swordsmen, yes."
The future is uncertain. Some people pray to God, while others just go with the flow.
But there are also people who only believe in themselves.
This is generally the case for pure warriors, they only believe in the knife, sword, or fist in their hands.
And Qi Lianhua's final blow is exactly the future he sees.
It’s not about imagination, it’s not about expectation, it’s about using the knife in your hand to carve out a future.
Of course, this future is not for myself.
It is just as Jiumozhi said, it is for his own obsession.
Qi Lianhua's obsession, without a doubt, is Beiliang and Xu Fengnian.
In other words, Qi Lianhua's life-burning sword was actually intended to carve out a future for Xu Fengnian.
Of course, when they say it is the future, in their eyes it is actually a threat.
In the eyes of everyone in Beiliang, especially Xu Xiao, Gao Changsheng's existence has become a serious threat to their safety.
The one who is most threatened is undoubtedly the future Xu Fengnian.
After all, Xu Xiao is old and doesn't have much time left.
And with Xu Xiao's ability and prestige, at least if it were him, he wouldn't be so afraid.
What they were worried about was the safety of the next generation of Beiliang Lord after Xu Xiao.
This is also the purpose of Qi Lianhua's visit this time.
Having said so much, Qi Lianhua's final blow was simply to kill Gao Changsheng and ensure safety for his grandson.
"Although we are enemies, the three swords you have used today are indeed worthy of the name of sword armor. I will send you off."
Gao Changsheng smiled softly.
The relationship between him and Beiliang is more of an enemy than a friend.
Now, since Xu Xiao has chosen to take action.
Then in Gao Changsheng's eyes, the fate of Beiliang is already determined.
However, he did not show any angry expression, nor did he say any bad words.
Swearing or making harsh remarks whenever something happens will only damage your own status.
Gao Changsheng would never do such useless things.
Everything will come to an end naturally when his troops reach Beiliang and set foot on Qingliang Mountain. No matter how much you say now, it will be of no help.
In addition, although Qi Lianhua came because of Xu Xiao, he was more frank than the other party.
From the beginning to the end, we have never taken the initiative to join forces with others and have always adhered to fair combat.
Putting aside other things, Qi Lianhua is indeed a pure swordsman from his own perspective.
Moreover, at this time, everything about Qi Lianhua had already been integrated into this last knife.
In other words, the man Daojia, as everyone was talking about, was actually already dead, and no one could hear anything you said at this moment.
"Om."
As the words fell, Qi Lianhua's last knife in the air had already reached Gao Changsheng's head.
The terrifying aura had already split everything around it apart.
It seemed that there was only this one blade of light left between heaven and earth, embodying the life of the grandmaster.
At this time, the warriors who were attracted by the noise in the distance had not arrived yet.
There were only three grandmasters from both sides watching the battle.
Although they were all warriors of the same level, both Jiumozhi and those who did not show up in secret fell into silence.
No one made the slightest move.
It seemed that they were also shocked by Dao Jia's ultimate blow.
Or maybe, they didn't want to intervene rashly and wanted to see whether Gao Changsheng could withstand Qi Lianhua's fatal blow and whether he could escape unscathed or die on the spot.
Three figures, three gazes, the eyes of both enemies and friends fell on Gao Changsheng.
"Om."
Just at this moment, a vast sound suddenly exploded.
It sounds like the sound of a sword, yet it is completely different from the sound of a sword.
The three people in the distance were shocked at the same time.
The sound that suddenly appeared was like the original sound between heaven and earth, ancient and mysterious. It felt as if it came from the sky and from the avenue.
As the sound comes out.
The sky behind Gao Changsheng suddenly exploded, and a huge, blurry image slowly rose.
"Dharma."
Three voices, filled with surprise and surprise, were heard at the same time.
At this point in the battle, Qi Lianhua had even lost his life.
However, Gao Changsheng didn't even use the fundamental Dharma form of a grand master.
This is certainly surprising.
You have to know that in a battle of the same level, unless the difference in strength is really huge, few people would be so arrogant.
And when one reaches the Grand Master realm, how many of them are truly weak?
What's more, Gao Changsheng was facing Qi Lianhua, a powerful man who was almost at the pinnacle of the grandmaster realm.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they probably wouldn't have believed it.
There is actually someone who can force Qi Lianhua to this point without even moving his Dharma image.
Fortunately, at this time Gao Changsheng finally used his Dharma image.
Otherwise, the three people in the distance might have problems with their Taoism.
Besides being shocked, they were more curious.
It has long been no secret that Gao Changsheng is a grandmaster.
The enemy's breakthrough on the city wall of Nanjing alarmed many people.
But until now, no one knows what Gao Changsheng's Dharma image is.
Even the countless people around Nanjing City at that time only caught a glimpse and did not see the specific situation.
Now Gao Changsheng has finally used his Dharmakā for the first time ever, and everyone is naturally curious, especially the two grandmasters who are in hostile positions.
The mist rose, and an image that was too huge to describe slowly emerged.
The three grand masters all widened their eyes at the same time, wanting to see the specific situation clearly at the first possible moment.
An ancient, vast, and heart-pounding aura emanated from the air.
The next second, there was a shock in the sky, and an arm like a pillar of heaven suddenly stretched out.
"This, this is..." An exclamation was heard in the field instantly.
