Lin Sumo smiled: "Lin heard that from the northeast of Yan State, you can go to the sea and go all the way east. It takes about more than a month to reach an overseas land. The area is several times larger than Tianlu Jiuzhou. If Brother Song If you are interested, with the strength of the Song clan, you should be able to find it in a few years!"
Comparing the time progress of the two worlds, the time node of Tianlu is probably during the Song and Yuan Dynasties of that world. The Mayan civilization in Central America is also in the "postclassic period" of its history. During this time period, the Mayan civilization flourished and declined. , it was only two to three hundred years before its demise.
With the power of the Song clan, if they intend to expand overseas continents, it will not be difficult to occupy a place in the Central American continent where there are many city-states.
However, Song Yingxiong showed little interest in this and said with a hint of ridicule: "How can a barren land overseas compare to the prosperity of Kyushu?"
Lin Sumo felt that what Song Yingxiong said was absolutely correct and he was unable to refute it. But Lin Sumo couldn't figure it out. With the current power of the Song Dynasty, if he wanted to win the artifact, he would never seek cooperation with the 'Hanshan Military Palace'. Lin Sumo still knew this, and with the 'Hanshan Military Palace' His strength is not the strongest even in Bianhuangji. The Song clan has many options to choose from.
"Song is interested in Commander Lin!"
Without letting Lin Sumo struggle for too long, Song Yingxiong gave the answer directly, saying: "Army Master Lin has aspired to become a Grandmaster at the age of more than 20 years old, and his future is limitless!"
"I'm not……"
Under Song Yingxiong's strange gaze, Lin Sumo retorted feebly.
Having the combat power of a grandmaster is not equivalent to being a grandmaster. Lin Sumo understands this very clearly.
"Whether it is yes or no, we will know in the first battle!" Song Yingxiong said calmly and casually, his expression calm.
Lin Sumo was about to refuse, or simply admit defeat, but he heard Song Yingxiong shout solemnly: "Brother Lin, don't think about holding back or pretending to be invincible. When Song takes action, he must not leave any behind. If Brother Lin can't If you try your best, you might as well commit suicide!”
Lin Sumo knew that when he reached the level of a master, every move contained huge power, and he could only control it with all his strength. When masters competed with each other, the victory or defeat could only be determined in an instant, and there was no mercy. Moreover, Lin Sumo weighed it carefully. Between his own cultivation and Song Yingxiong's, whether it was from cultivation to experience, he didn't seem to have an advantage.
After finishing speaking, Song Yingxiong gently touched the scabbard with his right hand, and heard a clang sound. The long sword came out in response, turning into a ray of snow and slashing towards Lin Sumo. The speed was extremely fast, as if he was on his own. After unsheathing the sword, the sword struck in front of Lin Sumo.
Lin Sumo tapped his toes, and his body floated back several feet silently like flying catkins. However, the sword light followed him like a shadow. Lin Sumo turned around to avoid it. At the same time, he waved his backhand and saw the long sword hanging in the tent. With a sword chant, the sword jumped out of the scabbard, and then seemed to be pulled by an invisible long rope, turning into a silver light and falling into Lin Sumo's hand.
"Well, the ancient swordsman is no different!" Song Yingxiong praised, but without stopping at all, the long sword turned again, bringing up a blade of light and sweeping towards Lin Sumo.
The sword is as heavy as a mountain, as fast as lightning, and as swift as a tiger. It is worthy of the name "Tiger Lord".
The long sword in Lin Sumo's hand shook, causing a buzzing sword sound. At the same time, the long sword flicked, and the yin and yang sword intent poured out continuously.
Song Yingxiong felt as if the long knife in his hand was sinking into a quagmire, and at the same time there was an invisible force competing with him for the control of the long knife, and at the same time he was guiding the knife to slash sideways.
"good!"
Song Yingxiong drew his sword and retreated, and then took a few steps forward. A powerful momentum surged out from his whole body, raging wildly. With Song Yingxiong's steady steps, the bone-chilling sword light from the sky swept toward Lin Sumo.
"As expected, he is indeed the 'Tiger Lord'. The youngest grandmaster in the world today, he just managed to escape from the Yin Yang Sword Intention in such an understatement. If he didn't work hard today, I'm afraid he would have fallen here!"
Lin Sumo couldn't help but sigh secretly, the long sword in his hand stabbed out diagonally, seemingly casually, but it penetrated through the gap between the sword lights. At the same time, the Yin and Yang Sword Intent exploded again, and Tai Chi produced Liang Yi. It was Tao Sheng Yi. , one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three transforms all things.
In an instant, one transformed into ten thousand, and ten thousand swords came out.
"Qiang!"
The swords met and the two of them took five steps backward at the same time.
"It was Lin who lost!"
Lin Sumo looked at the bow-shaped sword in his hand, shook his head and sighed.
"No, it was Song who lost!"
Following Song Yingxiong's words, the long knife in his hand was broken into several pieces and scattered in all directions.
The swords of the two were ordinary weapons and could not withstand the collision of their strength. Lin Sumo's long sword deformed but was not broken, but the long sword in Song Yingxiong's hand was broken into several pieces. At least on the surface, Song Yingxiong seemed to be slightly injured. It was a bit inferior, but Lin Sumo knew very well that if it weren't for his Yin Yang Sword Intention, the long sword in his hand would definitely be broken more completely than Song Yingxiong's long sword.
"If Brother Lin changes his mind and invites the Song clan from Liangdu to be his guest, Song will definitely welcome him!" Song Yingxiong casually threw the handle of the knife into the grass, turned around and drifted away.
I'm afraid this idea will never change, probably never in this life. Lin Sumo looked at Song Yingxiong's retreating back and could only say sorry.
00:02:13:06:03
Lin Sumo glanced at the numbers on his left arm. Two days, thirteen hours and six minutes. There was not much time left in this world. It was time to go down the mountain.
Coming out of the canyon, Lin Sumo walked straight up to Taiyi Mountain.
On the top of Taiyi Mountain, a group of peaks stand side by side, where the ruins of the 'Tai Xuan Dan Sect' are located. Halfway up the mountain, a pile of white rocks lay scattered in the grass, with insects, gnats, birds and beasts roaming among them. This was where the gate of the 'Tai Xuan Dan Sect' used to be. Now it has become a pile of ruins, silently showing the past. of brilliance.
Behind the pile of rocks, there is a row of moss-covered and dilapidated stone steps that wind up and disappear into a chaotic dense forest.
As far as the eye can see, the top of the mountain is covered by floating clouds, and above the floating clouds, there is a 100-foot peak. This is the real Taiyi Peak.
At the end of the mountain road is an abyss, as if cut out by a sharp sword. The abyss is about a hundred feet deep and more than thirty meters wide. The rock wall is so steep that it is difficult for birds to stand. An iron cable as thick as an arm is connected to the other side. At the other end of the shore is Taiyi Peak.
Lin Sumo leaned down and flicked the long rope with his fingers. The long rope vibrated and jingled in the air. Lin Sumo flew up and stepped on the iron rope. After a few ups and downs, he landed on the rocks on the opposite side.
At the foot is a platform with a radius of three feet. The entire platform is in a regular circle and is paved with bluestone slabs. However, it has long been covered by vines and has lost its original appearance.
There should be eight stone pillars about one meter in diameter surrounding the round platform, but only a few stumps are left at this moment.
Standing here, you can imagine what it was like eight hundred years ago when the 'Tai Xuan Dan Sect' was at its peak. Time is indeed the enemy of everything in the world, even the supreme being who lives in the temple, or the supreme being who is far away from the rivers and lakes. Grandmasters will eventually decay.
It is precisely because of this that a small pill has stirred up chaos in temples and rivers and lakes. A storm has arisen. How many people can escape unscathed?
Lin Sumo walked up the broken stone steps, and at the end was a main hall. The roof of the main hall had collapsed, leaving only four ruined walls, still telling of the glory of the past. In the haystack under the stone steps, there was a piece of rotten wood. On the plaque, the words 'Baicao Hall' are vaguely visible.
In the past, this place was where guests were received, and it was also the first portal of the 'Tai Xuan Dan Sect'. Behind the 'Baicao Hall' were two towering cliffs. On the cliff between the cliffs, there was a three-foot-wide stone The winding path leads to the top of Taiyi Peak.
"Taiyi Peak is not a visitor from Lin!"
On the stone path, Lin Sumo found several clear footprints. The footprints were fresh. Not only that, there were traces of fighting on the cliff, and there was also a faint smell of blood in the air.
The stone path winds and twists, and the further you go, the more traces there are. Even before reaching the exit, there are more than ten corpses lying on both sides of the mountain path.
Judging from the costumes of these deceased people, they were all men and women from the world of martial arts. They should have been dead for no more than a day.
Lin Sumo checked the wounds. The fatal parts were all sword wounds, and they all died in one place. It seemed that they died from the same person's sword.
"Master, when did another sword master appear in the world?"
Lin Sumo mused, among the ten great masters, the 'Tiger Lord' whom he had just seen used a sword, the only one who used a sword. It is said that only the great master of the Wu Kingdom, Huan Daoxu, was known as the 'Benevolent Sword Saint'. However, the Sword Saint Huan Daoxu has never walked around the world since he sealed his sword and retired to the Changle Academy ten years ago. As Huan Daoxu, he did not bother to use his sword against these ordinary people in the world.
Among the world's best swordsmen, nine out of ten are from the Changle Academy, and of course Lin Sumo is one of those ten. The murderer's swordsmanship was ruthless and he would not leave anyone alive. Such sword intent was contrary to the "Benevolence" and "Forgiveness" tenets of the 'Changle Academy', and he obviously did not come from the 'Changle Academy'.
After walking through the last stone steps, the front suddenly opened up, and the scenery in front of us also changed suddenly, as if we were in another world.
"Tai Xuanzi really knows how to choose a place. If he didn't want to leave this world, he would occupy this place. It would be a good idea to establish a sect!"
Lin Sumo said with a smile, but it was just a talk. The 'Tai Xuan Dan Sect' has been in decline for seven hundred years, which shows that the feng shui here is not good.
Behind Taiyi Peak, there are still five peaks hidden, which are closely connected with Taiyi Peak. The peaks are not far from each other. They were the inner gate of Taixuan Dan Sect in the past. Among the six peaks, Taiyi Peak is the tallest. The other five peaks stand behind Taiyi Peak, forming a protective posture. The peaks are connected by plank roads.
These five peaks are Taixuan, Taichu, Taishi, Taisu and Taiyuan. In the past, the twelve disciples of Taixuanzi inherited Taixuanzi's mantle of alchemy, martial arts, martial arts, military art, and machine arts. This is also the origin of Taixuan's five meridians.
Each of the five meridians has its own peak. However, Taixuanzi entered the Tao through elixirs. Therefore, the "Taixuan Dan Sect" has adopted the "Alchemy Tao" as its orthodox starting from Taixuanzi. However, this also led to the dispute among the five meridians hundreds of years later. The four branches of martial arts, martial arts, military skills, and machine skills left one after another, which also laid the foundation for the decline and even destruction of the 'Tai Xuan Dan Sect'.
After being inaccessible for hundreds of years, the main halls on the other four peaks have long since collapsed and collapsed. The plank roads have been cut off and the mountain roads are difficult to navigate. From a distance, only a few traces of ruins and broken walls remain among the dense forests and grass.
