Melee swords are basically substitutes created by casual cultivators who cannot use flying swords. There are many fights between casual cultivators, and there are many people who cannot afford flying swords and various magical weapons.
During the fight, the spells consume too much spiritual energy. For casual cultivators who live at the bottom of the world of immortality, they cannot sustain the consumption for several times, not to mention that casual cultivators generally cannot master any powerful spells.
This melee sword is a sharp weapon for casual cultivators, but for Li Dongxiu, the leader of the Li clan, it is a rag. The reason why it has this sword is that it was gained by killing casual cultivators.
Although Li Qiao is recognized as a family monk, in Li Dongxiu's eyes, he basically puts in as much as he puts into it, so an ordinary storage bag is only a temporary loan. Maybe he feels a little sorry, so he gave it to him. Give him the sword.
However, in the world of cultivating immortals, in addition to strength, you also need luck. There are countless monks who have made rapid progress and were killed by high-level monks. There are also low-level monks who are worthless and have been living well. If they are lucky, they can get some small opportunities. of.
So he was not optimistic about Li Qiao, but he didn't really care about him at all. Li Qiao wanted to improve his status within the clan unless he could prove his worth.
If they are normal family monks, most of them will be very disgusted when they see this kind of close-quarter sword, and they would not bother to remove the layer of material on the surface of the close-quarter sword.
But for Li Qiao, it was a treasure.
What would he do if his family knew about him? It's just the Qingfeng Jue and the Giant Strength Technique. One blows the wind and the other is stronger. Other than that, there are basically no effective attack methods against other monks.
The weight of this close-quarter sword in his hand and the coldness on the edge of the sword reminded Li Qiao that this was a sharp weapon that could be used to kill people. Although he has never killed anyone in his entire life, he knows that if he wants to survive in the world of immortality, he must have some means of attack.
…
June 21, 2826 in the Purple Solar Calendar, in front of the mountain gate of Lingye Sect.
On a flat ground, one hundred and eighty-two monks from thirteen nearby cultivating families stood. The monks from these families gathered together in groups of their own families, with a high platform as the center and a certain distance apart from each other.
Looking towards Lingye Sect from here, one can only see some mist-like scenes of clouds and mountains, which is destined to make some family monks who want to see the sight of Lingye Sect ultimately return disappointed.
Twenty-three monks were kneeling on the high platform. Judging from their tattered clothes, most of them should be casual cultivators.
At this moment, Li Qiao was standing among the monks of the Li family under the high platform. There were more than two hundred monks in the entire scene, but they were completely silent. Li Qiao doubted that if his back was turned here, he would not be able to detect them just by sound. There are so many monks here.
Although he was thinking randomly in his mind, Li Qiao did not dare to move and kept looking at the high platform. The group of family monks who came to watch the ancient ceremony had been in this state for an hour.
I heard from the patriarch that before observing the ancient ceremony, one must do three things: not moving, not speaking, and not using spiritual consciousness. If this is not possible, there will be one more monk kneeling on the high platform.
This is not a viewing ceremony, it is clearly here to suffer!
This was probably the sentiment of many family monks who were watching the ceremony for the first time. However, they had all been told sternly before and saw the head of their family standing equally obediently, so no monks dared to challenge.
"There is a sequence of enlightenment. The younger generation of monks disrespect the elders and teach them with ancient rituals so that those who watch the rituals will follow suit! Lan Wenxiao of Lingye Sect!"
A young monk wearing the uniform of a Lingye Sect monk appeared on the high platform. With a flash of inspiration in his hand, he took out a black ritual stick with densely carved scales from his storage bag. This ritual stick should be more... It is called a ritual cone, one foot long, thick as a child's arm, and has one end in the shape of a cone.
Then he lifted the head of a kneeling monk, making his face tilt upward and his upper body straight. The kneeling monk realized what was about to happen, and made slight movements under the intense emotion, as if he wanted to resist, but was restrained. He, this kind of reaction can only prove that he is a living creature.
Pinch the mouth and tongue, insert the ritual stick diagonally downward, and penetrate the ground directly into the mouth.
Then the Lingye Sect monk named Lan Wenxiao drifted away.
"There is a sequence of enlightenment. The younger generation of monks do not respect the elders, so they teach them with ancient rituals so that those who watch the rituals will follow suit! Lingye Zongxiang Shangshang!"
After that, the same words kept appearing. The only change was that the Lingye Sect monks who appeared were different, but the actions they performed were the same, they all used ritual sticks to penetrate people.
One, two, three... It wasn't until all the kneeling monks on the high platform were arranged that the Lingye Sect monks disappeared.
You must know that the vitality of monks is very tenacious. The monks who are treated with ancient rituals on the high platform will not die immediately.
On the high platform, the posture is frozen and liquid is falling.
Under the high platform, it was heavy and oppressive, and some family monks felt a little breathless.
It can be said that this moment is the real process of observing the ceremony, a process of witnessing death.
"These cultivating families are weak, so why not just destroy them? Why do they need to do some ancient rituals?"
Under the cover of the Lingye Sect's mountain gate formation, a young man raised a question to the older monk next to him while watching the ancient ceremony.
"The world of cultivating immortals is very big. If these cultivating families are destroyed, new ones will appear. There will be an endless supply of them, and they will be destroyed endlessly!"
"If you kill too many, you won't dare to come!" The young man didn't take it seriously.
"Keep killing, and the sect's monks won't have to practice anymore." The older monk smiled first, and then said: "The Immortal Cultivating Family occupies it, and other Immortal Cultivating Families cannot. And the sect wants to absolutely control this place. In a large area, the current number of monks in the sect must be doubled several times. This will only reduce the cultivation resources of the monks in the sect, and it will also increase the number of fights within the sect. It is far worse than letting the existing cultivators It’s important for families to be obedient.”
In fact, in addition to this, the older monk did not say anything else. Lingye Sect is prestigious in front of more than a dozen immortal cultivating families, but it is nothing in the entire world of cultivating immortals. The larger the territory, the greater the danger. too much.
For example, if a nearby cultivating family offended someone that even his Lingye Sect could not afford to offend, they deserved to be exterminated directly. What does it have to do with his Lingye Sect? Lingye Sect can only be regarded as a small sect, and even those large sects do not dare to occupy too much space, but have indirect control like this.
This is true for sects towards immortal cultivating families, and it is also true for big sects towards small sects.
In the great world of cultivating immortals, only great monks who have transcended the tribulation period can run rampant. The so-called sect that can be destroyed is a sect that can be destroyed by a great monk who has transcended tribulations. Such sects are as numerous as stars in the great world of cultivating immortals, and countless of them have been destroyed. .
It was not until dark, when the figures on the high platform seemed to have turned into sculptures, that a voice came from the direction of Lingye Sect: "The ceremony is over!" The entire ancient ceremony process was considered over, and all the monks from the immortal cultivating families began to leave.
