The world of spiritual practice is no better than dynasties in the human world. A hundred years is just a blink of an eye. However, changing dynasties is inevitable. It is just a longer span of time.
There are gradually fewer and fewer people from the older generation.
Wu Yuncang and Susana Tathagata both took over the responsibilities of the previous generation very early and are a little older.
In comparison.
For example, Yin Chengxia and Li Kaishan are very junior figures in the circle, and they have not succeeded to the throne for a long time. This has a lot to do with fate.
after all.
A suitable disciple is not that easy to find.
The old master of the Qingtianwu Mansion and the old Tathagata of the Rebirth Temple were both lucky enough to find a suitable successor early and then pass on their mantles.
The Goshen Temple has the best luck, even reaching the third generation.
on the contrary.
Some big names are not very lucky and cannot find a suitable successor throughout their entire lives. This is the case for example, the Sword Master Songqing of Broken Dragon Sword Cliff, who only recently accepted a disciple.
The Medicine Sage of Yaowang Island in the Northern Qi Dynasty did not accept any successors.
"When it comes to disciples, I'm afraid no one can compare with Senior Ling Xiao. Everyone can see Ling Xiao's demeanor in the past few days. He is indeed a talented person, quite impressive."
The old man in robes with white hair and a long silver beard spoke slowly. He was also very old, but his eyes were still bright.
This man is none other than the master of the Qiankun Martial Palace, Zuo Renqing. He is a figure from the previous era, and is naturally the highest-ranking figure among the five major martial arts houses in the Qin Dynasty. In terms of strength, he is even higher than the master of the Qingtian Martial Palace, Wu Yuncang. .
"Master Zuo is making fun of me. Who would want to do this if he wasn't old?"
Palace Master Lingxiao laughed at himself: "Speaking of which, Palace Master Zuo should look for a good successor. You and I are both figures of the previous generation, so it's time to give up this stage."
"That's right, but I can't find a suitable successor."
Zuo Renqing sighed and looked helpless. Why didn't he want to find a suitable disciple?
Unfortunately, the world is so big, but there are not so many geniuses.
Sword Master Haoran also arrived and smiled loudly: "I'm very good at looking after Gu Yuebai. In recent years, if I want to say which person's name appears the most in the five major martial arts houses of Great Qin, I'm afraid it's him."
When Zuo Renqing heard this name, his old face froze slightly, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
To know.
Gu Yuebai's reputation over the years has been very loud, but it is definitely not a good reputation. One day he is teaching young monks to eat meat at the Temple of Purity, and the next day he is secretly learning sword skills at Haoran Sword Sect. He is an existence full of misdeeds and is despised by everyone. Very dishonest.
He was even called the Bai Lao Mo by some juniors, and their expressions changed upon hearing this.
If it weren't for the fact that he was backed by the five major martial arts houses of the Qin Dynasty and his actions were trivial and did not touch the bottom line of those forces, Gu Yuebai would have been killed by the major forces long ago.
"My poor discipline has made everyone laugh."
Zuo Renqing shook his head and sighed, but did not directly answer the words of Sword Master Haoran. He admitted that Gu Yuebai's talent was very good and he was qualified to climb the peak of the magic circle, but his temper was too difficult to control.
The others burst into laughter, not really laughing, but to liven up the atmosphere.
"Um?"
Suddenly, someone saw a stream of light coming from a distance.
A familiar figure caught everyone's attention. It was Songqing Sword Master, one of the three great sword masters of Broken Dragon Sword Cliff. He was accompanied by a junior with a stern face and a long sword on his back.
Everyone couldn't help but be a little surprised when they saw this scene.
Yin Chengxia raised her hands towards Sword Master Songqing and said, "Senior Sword Master Songqing is here, but we are waiting for you from afar."
"The Sword Master is here."
Sword Master Haoran was slightly surprised. He stepped forward and held his hands in his hands, showing respect: "I have never seen Broken Dragon Sword Cliff coming in the past years. Today, Sword Master Songqing is actually here. It's really exciting."
"How dare you call me a swordsman when there are two of you here? This old man is just a withered skeleton. You two are really ruining this old man."
Sword Master Songqing shook his head, his voice filled with helplessness.
Sword Master Yin Chengxia and Haoran didn't think so. Although they both had their own power and became strong men, their status was far inferior to that of Yan Songqing.
That was when they embarked on the path of cultivation, and they were already respected as sword masters by people.
It can be said.
It is hard for many sword cultivators in Da Qin and even Kyushu not to have heard of Yan Songqing's name when they entered the practice. Yan Songqing's sword manual has helped countless sword cultivators develop their swords.
The same is true for Yin Chengxia and Sword Master Haoran. They respect the old sword master from the bottom of their hearts.
They turned back to look at the young man carrying the sword next to Songqing Sword Master, their eyes flashed, and Yin Chengxia asked tentatively: "It is rumored that Songqing Sword Master has accepted a disciple, but this little friend?"
"Exactly, my disciple's name is Li Jianqi, and he is a candidate in one of the five major martial arts houses in the Qin Dynasty."
"I came here today to apologize for this matter."
Sword Master Songqing made an introduction and raised his hand: "Jian Qi was supposed to be a disciple of the five great martial arts houses of Great Qin. However, I felt itchy in my heart, so I accepted him into the sect. I hope you will forgive me."
Yin Chengxia and other masters of the five major martial arts houses in Great Qin were startled, and looked at Li Jianqi with a strange look in their eyes.
To know.
Songqing Sword Master has not had a successor for so many years, purely because of Songqing Sword Master's high requirements.
Even if there are many famous swordsmen in later generations who once worshiped Sword Master Songqing but were rejected, all this shows how high the requirements of Sword Master Songqing are.
It is impossible for ordinary people to enter the eyes of Sword Master Songqing.
Not only could this person be favored by Sword Master Songqing, but he even wanted to be accepted into his sect without any hesitation.
It is enough to show how extraordinary this person's swordsmanship is.
"Senior, what are you talking about? The students of the five major martial arts houses of Great Qin are practitioners of Great Qin, and the disciples of Duanlong Jianya are also practitioners of Great Qin. There is not much difference."
"What's more, senior has not found a disciple for many years, and today he finally saw one?"
Wu Yunchang spoke with respect in his voice: "If we intervene, it will make people laugh. To say that we are apologizing would be to look down on the five major martial arts houses of Great Qin."
"It seems that the old man is worrying too much."
Sword Master Songqing smiled, patted Li Jianqi on the shoulder, and then looked at everyone.
"Jian Qi, these people are your seniors in the world of cultivation. They are the masters of the five major martial arts houses in the Qin Dynasty. This one is the sword master of the Haoran Sword Sect. You must learn from them."
"Yes, I have met all seniors."
Li Jianqi nodded and handed over to many important figures.
The eyes of Yin Chengxia and others flashed, and they saw that Li Jianqi was not very afraid of them, and they were a little frightened. It seemed that this son was favored by the Songqing Sword Master, and it was not without reason.
Just with this character, I don’t know how many people have surpassed me.
After Li Jianqi finished speaking, his eyes suddenly fell on Wu Yuncang.
