Kungang is the ancestor of dragon veins in the world, the source of great rivers, and the top of thousands of mountains.
Tang Zhao had heard the name of Kunggang Snow Mountain for a long time, and only thought it was a vast white snow mountain. Only then did he realize that only the towering golden top is covered with snow all year round. Below the snow line, there are deep dense forests, green and yellow meadows and various colorful Mountain rocks.
Kungang below the snow line is actually colorful. Although there are no colorful flowers, the rocks on the surface are colorful, including red, purple, cyan, and even green that is more fresh than the meadow, and blue that is clearer than the sky. Pure white than ice and snow, the sky and earth form a magnificent and magnificent scene.
"That mountain is a bit like Jiugao Mountain." Standing on a mountain peak, Jiang Shenyi pointed to a straight snow-capped mountain in the distance.
"Yes, it is higher than Jiugao Mountain."
"That mountain is like our 108-spring spring mountain."
"That one is like Tianmu Mountain in my hometown, but it's higher than Tianmu Mountain."
Tang Zhao said: "The dragon veins of the world come out of Kungang. Maybe all mountains can find similar mountains here." He just found a mountain similar to Heyang Peak.
But we cannot say that the mountains here are like the mountains outside. It should be said that the mountains outside are like the mountains here.
After all, no one can say that I am like a son.
Entered Kunggang and then to Jianzhou.
Jianzhou is not a state, but a sword.
The sword of the swordsman.
When a swordsman has reached the realm of sword immortality, his sword must have reached the realm of "power", which means it can affect the surrounding environment. The sword fairy released his sword power and was able to form his own territory. At this time, the sword and the swordsman have reached the point where the human sword has become one. If the sword immortal dies, the sword will also dim itself, but it will still release the power of the sword, subtly affecting the surrounding environment, creating an unusual area. This kind of place is called "Xuanhuangdi".
In fact, if you think about it, it is similar to the Demon Cave, except that there is no demon.
There are not many Xuanhuang Lands in the world, because the sword of the Sword Immortal can also choose the next swordsman. Once selected, the sword will leave, and the Xuanhuang Land will become a rootless tree, gradually withering and disappearing.
Anyone who can discover a new piece of Xuanhuang Land will be considered rich. Not to mention the treasures inside, if he can find a sword that belonged to the swordsman of that time, he will become rich overnight.
Jianzhou is just a piece of black and yellow land, but this land is very special. Not only has it existed for many years, but it also moves frequently, but it does not extend beyond Kunggang. Moreover, I only saw Jianzhou, but not its sword. Many people are looking for the Sword Immortal's legacy sword in Jianzhou, hoping to take it away and completely master Jianzhou, but to no avail. Instead, they have harvested a lot of the legacy left by the Sword Immortal back then.
To this day, Jianzhou is still free.
The Sword Immortal of Jianzhou back then was an extremely skilled swordsmith. His legacy was less about kendo and more about swordmaking, especially the secret book information he collected, which can be called a treasure trove of swordsmiths. Over time, this mysterious land became a holy place for swordsmiths and talisman sword masters.
It is said that Jianzhou moves extremely fast, and sometimes it can change several times a day. Only in mid-spring every four years, Jianzhou will stay in a certain place for a month, and the environment of that place will undergo earth-shaking changes, and even Build a city on the same spot. At that time, the senior swordsmiths who had been waiting for the opportunity would come to the door. On the one hand, they would collect the legacy of the Sword Immortal, and on the other hand, they would use the treasure land to carefully arrange it and start the four-year-old Mid-Spring Talisman Fair.
It is said that after the annual talisman meeting ends and Jianzhou is moved, although the local environment will no longer be mysterious as before, it will change to some extent. The city built before will not collapse, but will be preserved permanently. Most of the cities in this vast mountain were built like this.
Over the years, Kungang has gained many cities. However, Kungang has a sparse population and a harsh environment, so it does not need so many cities. Most of the city was abandoned. After being eroded by wind and frost, it even became the legendary devil city. Only part of it remained, and some people moved into it and it became a real city.
The Tianchi Baicheng they went to this time was such a city.
Yes, the meeting place on their invitation was not the real Jianzhou, but a meeting place. These young talisman sword masters don’t know where Jianzhou is this year.
"It's possible that Jianzhou is deep in Kungang and is inaccessible, so it's inconvenient to go there separately. So I ask everyone to go to Baicheng on the outskirts of Kungang first, and then the large forces can unify the process."
Tang Zhao pondered: "It may also be a screening test. Some clues will be given when they arrive in Baicheng to see if the Fu Sword Master can arrive in Jianzhou within the specified time. If he cannot arrive, he may miss the quadrennial conference. "
It is said that this is the case for the graduation examination of the training camp of the District Procuratorate. Students are not taken directly to the examination room. They are only given some clues to comprehensively test the students' intelligence collection and analysis abilities. Anyone who cannot even find the examination room will be directly ineligible to take the exam.
Chesha and Wusuntong suddenly became nervous. They didn't think they were good at intelligence analysis. Even the smarter Che Sha was like this, making her uneasy.
Jiang Shenyi shook his head and said: "Don't listen to junior brother's assertion. There has never been such a thing before. Although there is some competition in the Mid-Spring Festival, it is mainly a gathering of the younger generation, focusing on exchanges and discussions. Why is it so tense? There is no such thing as screening. It should be targeted at us, it should be targeted at those warriors."
"The Mid-Spring Talisman Festival is a grand event for our Talisman Sword Masters themselves. However, many warriors sneaked in and came to find the Talisman Sword Master Miao Zi to build relationships and make friends. Some of these people are powerful and have extraordinary status. The host is not It’s easy to refuse, and some simply sneak in through unknown means, and even commit theft and abduction, causing a mess. There really should be a threshold to screen them.”
Tang Zhao still insisted: "This kind of thing didn't happen in previous years, but this year we have changed the host and the sacrificial wine, maybe there will be a difference? Although there was no threshold for participating in the banquet in previous years, there were a lot of messy things at the banquet, maybe the new host To rectify the atmosphere and set the threshold outside the banquet, the formal banquet will be pure."
The so-called host is the swordsmith force that spent money and effort to arrange the Sword State. This force has to bear all the expenses and souvenirs for the young disciples, but accordingly, it can enter Jianzhou as soon as possible to find the legacy of the Sword Immortal that appeared with Xuanhuang Land, and other forces are not allowed to compete for it for a period of time. The host roads are usually big forces that are famous and have history, and those like Zhuoyu Villa are definitely not up to par.
Jijiu was a powerful swordsmith hired from outside the host country. Not to mention his strength, at least he had the ability to establish theories and talismans. He has the highest status in the Fu Association and is respected by everyone, but he has an important responsibility, which is to pass on part of his unique knowledge and experience to young people and serve as a teacher for everyone.
The host of the previous three times was Mo Ganfeng, one of the seven major sword-making forces in the world. Moganfeng has a long history of sword-making and has produced many famous swords, so the host has sufficient background. However, Mo Ganfeng's style is to make swords with only the highest quality and not to care about anything else. The banquet was of high standard and the souvenirs were very valuable. But for those intrigues and cliques at the banquet, we cannot say that it is encouragement, it can only be said to be indulgence. Therefore, the undercurrent is getting stronger and stronger every time. It is said that everyone almost fell out at the end of the last session and it was very unpleasant. In addition to some transcendental struggles, the big forces and the small transparent ones who were not qualified to fight made everyone feel unhappy, so they jointly ousted Mo Ganfeng from the position of host and replaced him with a new host.
Starting from this session, the host of Fu Hui will be replaced by Long Yuan. Long Yuan is also one of the seven swordsmith forces. Its history is not as long as Moganfeng, but it is more complicated. It is said that it was the official sword-making institution of the former Wei Dynasty. Although the previous dynasty was the era of Lingguan, there was only one official sword-making furnace, named Qixing Longyuan, and its power was not small. Just before the change of dynasty, the entire force suddenly left the court and retreated from the world, able to escape the turmoil.
After the establishment of the new dynasty, Long Yuan kept a very low profile. Although he retained the name of the seven major forces, he rarely showed his prominence. He almost did not participate in all major events in the government and the public, even among swordsmiths. His influence declined year by year, and he was almost ignored by others. Forget. In the past few years, it seems that the Jin Dynasty has almost lost its momentum, and gradually it has begun to stand out again and wants to make a comeback.
Since Long Yuan intends to revive, he must go down with the momentum of thunder and do something big. Hosting a talisman meeting is a signal. It is conceivable that they are determined to innovate and turn around the atmosphere of Fuhui to show their own majesty. All the forces also want to see, after so many years, is Long Yuan more elegant than before, or is a skinny camel bigger than a horse, or has his reputation become empty? If everything goes badly, it would be better for Mo Ganfeng and Long Yuan not to come back to the world and just stay where they can to cool off.
"I just don't know who the sacrificial wine is?"
Compared to a big force like Dong Dao, there are too many candidates for offering wine. It's hard for anyone to guess. They all know that Long Yuan will definitely hire a top master this time. They also hope that the study of wine sacrifices happens to be in the same direction as his own study, so that he can learn more.
Tang Zhao had a good impression of Long Yuan because he had seen Long Yuan's talisman textbook at Xue Xianyun's place.
Fu Shi is different from martial arts. It is a "liberal" subject. It not only has secret books but also teaching materials. When Xue Yeyu met Tang Zhao for the first time, he gave him the book "Fu Shi Enlightenment", which is now a common enlightenment textbook for sword and talisman masters in the Jin Dynasty.
The current enlightenment textbooks are jointly compiled by the four imperial sword-making eunuchs, and they are fairly easy to use. But after Tang Zhao saw the previous version, he realized that the current version basically follows the framework of the previous dynasty, but only updated some knowledge. The previous edition was indeed the first edition of a general textbook. It was compiled from scratch and compiled by many experts. The chief author was Long Yuan.
In other words, Long Yuan has contributed to today's Fu Sword Master world. Just because of the change of dynasties, this credit has been lost.
Moreover, Tang Zhao also discovered that Long Yuan had the awareness to do exercises. Starting from the elementary chapter, each chapter is followed by exercises, but there are not as many types of questions as in the later exercise sets.
Hundreds of years ago, Long Yuan would have exercises, but what about now? Will Fu have a "written test" this time? In the first level, there will be a hundred questions or something.
It's best not to.
Tang Zhao can write questions for others, but he doesn't like to do other people's questions. Yes, it's such a double standard.
Just as he was thinking about it, Baicheng appeared on the horizon.
Several teenagers raised their heads together and looked towards the sky.
"That's... cloud... dragon?!"
