The information brought by Zhang Hu said two things: First, after all the more than forty islands in the East China Sea were combined into the Luochen Continent, it finally attracted the attention of some forces in southern Xinjiang, especially the increasing presence of Luochen Pharmaceutical in various fairy cities. Finished products are exported, and the market share captured has skyrocketed.
As a result, the interests of other forces in southern Xinjiang were greatly affected. In order to prevent the situation from getting worse, those forces used a trick and sent some monks to buy the finished products from Luochen Pharmaceutical's shop. However, after that, they accused Luochen Pharmaceutical of poor quality of the goods sold and demanded that the fairy crystals be returned. What's more, they A certain amount of compensation was also proposed.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that such a method is deliberately seeking trouble. The products sold by Luochen Pharmaceutical have always been of high quality and low price for decades, so how could defective products suddenly appear?
However, those forces had planned this for a long time and invited the immortal masters from the four alliances of the Alchemy and Talisman Array to come forward and list the inferiority of various finished products. They finally left a sentence: It is just a small business, how can it compete with the four alliances of the Alchemy and Talisman Array? Compared to the Grandmaster, he simply overestimates his abilities!
After this suppression, in the past month, Luochen Pharmaceutical's shops in various fairy cities have been experiencing constant problems. Not only has the number of monks coming to buy significantly decreased, but even the city lord's palace has come forward to persuade them to leave. I mean, your Luochen Pharmaceutical's shops, this place The city is not welcoming, so leave as soon as possible!
The lack of resource circulation channels felt like a chokehold for the newly established Luochen Sword Sect. Zhang Chu was anxious for a while, and after many unsuccessful negotiations, he sent the news back to the sect.
If the first thing didn't completely shake the foundation of Luochen Sword Sect, then the second thing was even more fatal.
The content of the intelligence was concise and concise, with only four words: The Sea Tribe is invading!
The Sea Tribe is a special ethnic group. They are active in the waters of Zhongyuan Continent.
The Zhongyuan Continent is vast, but 70% of its area is covered by the ocean. In the mouth of the immortal monks, it is collectively called the Blue Sea.
The number of sea tribes living in the blue sea is very, very large, and they are known as the first race in Zhongyuan Continent. Because the area of the blue sea is wider than the land, the number of sea tribes living in the blue sea is also very large, even greater than that of the mainland. Beyond the human race.
Moreover, the Sea Clan is different from the Human Clan. The Human Clan looks similar, but the Sea Clan is just a general term, which is divided into many categories.
For example, there are shark clan, whale clan, snake clan, etc., and the shark clan is divided into tiger shark clan, sword shark clan, etc., whale clan also has white whale clan, giant whale clan, etc., and snake clan has sea snake clan, Dragon Snake Clan......
The Sea Clan, like the Human Clan, can also practice, and there are many strong people. After they reach a certain level, they can transform and walk upright like humans, but their ears and eyes are very different, and some are even covered with scales.
In addition to being different in appearance from the human race, the sea people all exude strong water vapor fluctuations and water power fluctuations. Such water power fluctuations are somewhat different from the water power fluctuations mastered by the human race. The water power fluctuations mastered by the human race cultivators The power fluctuations are like water, which is relatively peaceful. The water power fluctuations in the Hai clan have a kind of vastness and depth, like the ocean.
The artistic conception of water is called the artistic conception of the sea in the mouth of the Hai clan, and the techniques they master are also called sea techniques.
Strictly speaking, the island group is located on the blue sea and is considered the territory of the Sea Clan. Although most of the islands are dominated by the Human Race, the Sea Clan always feels like a landlord. They are domineering on various islands and cannot be easily provoked.
There have been various examples in the past. Some people, relying on their own strength or background, had conflicts with the Sea Clan and killed some Sea Clan. In the end, the Sea Clan army appeared, surrounded the island, and forcibly forced other people on the island to fight. The man handed over the murderer and was brutally executed by the sea tribe, and eventually became food for sea beasts.
But now, right under their noses, a continent was created on the blue sea, and a sect was established on this continent. This was a naked slap in the face to the nearby sea tribe.
The senior officials of the Hai Clan are furious and have often sent personnel into the Luochen Continent recently to carry out harassment. They were rampaging and unscrupulous. The human race succumbed to the power of the Hai Clan and deliberately avoided them. They were unwilling and did not dare to come into contact with them. However, if this continued, it would have a huge impact on the prestige of the Luochen Sword Sect.
The two pieces of information put the newly founded Luochen Sword Sect into a passive situation.
Cheng Ling was silent for a while and said: "Zhang Hu, spread the news. One month later, the Luochen Sword Sect will challenge the four alliances of the Alchemy Talisman Array. Regardless of alchemy, talisman making, weapon refining, and array formation, they will compete one by one. However, if the Luochen Sword Sect loses, Luochen Pharmaceutical will no longer sell these resources from now on, and if the people of the Four Alliances lose, let them shut their mouths!"
Zhang Hu's heart trembled. To be honest, when he first heard the news, he was also very angry. Damn it, even though the Four Alliances of the Alchemy and Talisman Array are famous, they are capable of using real guns and swords! What's the point of using conspiracy to throw dirty water?
But according to Cheng Ling's opinion, it would be tantamount to starting a war with the four alliances of the Alchemy and Talisman Array. Wouldn't it involve too many forces?
After pondering for a while, he carefully expressed his concerns.
Cheng Ling nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes, as a sect leader, you do have to have your own ideas. Your concerns are good, but this is not the time to compromise with them. The four alliances of the Alchemy Weapon Formation are different from other forces. They are more Value achievements in various fields, and as long as you are impressed by them in this aspect, the rest will be easy.”
"Another point is the threat from the Sea Clan! As far as I know, this clan is very powerful, even more powerful than the four major sects. Faced with such a powerful force, we have no energy to argue with the Four Alliances."
"Therefore, we must act quickly. After eliminating the hidden dangers of the four alliances, we can concentrate all our efforts to deal with the threat of the Sea Clan."
Zhang Hu said: "Then what should we do with these sea tribes on the mainland now?"
"Act according to the sect's system. If they abide by their duties, ignore them. Once they disrupt order, we will show no mercy!"
"Yes, I understand!"
Cheng Ling continued: "One month is neither long nor short. During this period, you should let the four halls of the Alchemy and Talisman Array quickly improve. Then you can take them with you to gain some knowledge."
Zhang Hu agreed and left to explain.
Cheng Ling sighed secretly. Originally, he wanted to wait for the sect to stabilize a little before heading north to look for the Piaomiao Snow Sect, but this would cause another delay.
The news spread through Zhang Chu's intelligence network. When the four monks heard it, they almost didn't believe their ears.
This Luochen Sword Sect is so crazy! If we say that the four alliances may be a little lacking in combat, but the Alchemy and Talisman Formation is almost their bread and butter. The people of the Luochen Sword Sect still choose to compete with these items. Is their sect leader an idiot?
But no matter what they thought, the Luochen Sword Sect finally made a bold statement, and the time was set to be one month later, in Southern Xinjiang City!
Zhang Chu has the deepest foundation in Southern Xinjiang City. Since he has to face the four alliances of the Alchemy and Talisman Array, he naturally chooses to stay in the territory he is familiar with.
And this month, Cheng Ling has not been idle.
While instructing the swordsmanship of the twelve disciples who had won the competition, he suddenly had an idea: Perhaps, he should create a few swordsmanships belonging to the Luochen Sword Sect...
Although he has a lot of inheritance, these inheritances are all pieced together with no continuity, and the artistic conception of swordsmanship is also very different, which is not conducive to the long-term development of the sect. Only by creating a series of swordsmanship inheritances based on their own characteristics can they be coherent.
Of course, with Cheng Ling's current swordsmanship attainments and realm, it would not be difficult to create one or even several swordsmanship, but the swordsmanship he created was not the perfect swordsmanship in his mind.
He needs more insights, needs to see more swordsmanship, and acquire more knowledge before he can create the perfect swordsmanship in his mind.
To achieve that step, it would take a lot of time and energy, but Cheng Ling was willing to pay for it because he felt that if he could succeed, it would not only benefit the sect, but also reflect on and sort out his own swordsmanship.
Once this idea appears, it can no longer be restrained. Although perfection cannot be achieved, you can practice your skills first to prepare for creating more perfect swordsmanship in the future.
Immediately, Cheng Ling consciously created based on the various sword techniques he had practiced and seen, under the control of the sword intention, and with the support of the fourth level of swordsmanship.
Take the essence and eliminate the dross, coordinate and integrate it, try it yourself, and gradually improve it.
It took a total of more than twenty days to create the four sword techniques and perfect them to the maximum that he could achieve so far.
There are four sword techniques. The first one is called Wind and Thunder Sword. It carries the power of wind and thunder. It is fast, ferocious and violent. It is the top sword technique of the Yellow Level. Its power reaches its peak among the Yellow Level. Even after mastering the essence, it will not be inferior to Xuan-level low-level swordsmanship.
The second sword technique is called Changhe Sword Technique. The attack is like the water of a long river, continuous and inexhaustible. It is a powerful sword technique that reaches the peak of Xuan level. After being practiced, it can compete with the low-level sword techniques of Earth level. Comparable to, even better than one or two.
The third sword technique is called the Golden Edge Sword Technique. It is extremely sharp, indestructible and indestructible. It is extremely sharp and terrifyingly powerful. It is a sword technique that has reached the pinnacle of the earth level. In a sense, its power is not inferior to Ordinary low-level swordsmanship at heaven level.
Strictly speaking, these three sword techniques were not difficult to create for Cheng Ling. It only took five or six days to create them. The remaining time, in addition to perfecting them, was mainly used on the fourth technique. On the creation and perfection of swordsmanship.
The fourth swordsmanship, named Xuanzhen Swordsmanship by Cheng Ling, is a swordsmanship that really took Cheng Ling's thought. This swordsmanship is different from the other three swordsmanship in that it is not limited to what kind of power of heaven and earth it incorporates. In short, anyone can practice this sword technique, and it can incorporate different powers of heaven and earth, so that the sword technique can be displayed in different ways.
Calculating the time, there were only ten days left before the Dan Fu Weapon Formation Competition. He came out of seclusion, called Song Yingjie over, and said: "Yingjie, put these four sword techniques into the library and let the disciples practice. I will go to Nanjiang City with Zhang Hu and the four disciples in a few days, and you will take care of the sect."
