Xun Huaiying and 3rd Generation First Disciple Qingchen Zi is ordinary, once had gone to Sword Battle Daoist Assembly, is known as the prestige in in sect, sees him to speak, Chen Yuanning and other people do not dare, since, is a ritual, the retreat calls Miao Kun et al . 荀怀英与三代大弟子清辰子一般,曾去过斗剑法会,在门中又素有威望,见他发话,陈原宁等三人不敢不从,俱是一礼,退去招呼苗坤等人。 The Zhang Yan vision throws, does to size up slightly, more than hundred years do not see, the opposite party cultivation advancement is also quite quick, Summit Astral Cloud has become three, but has not had Huo Xuan that and other sticking together to refine about the shape, bows a ritual with a smile, said: „Left from Sword Battle other day in a hurry, does not think that is the past hundred years, can Fellow Daoist Xun always be good?” 张衍目光投去,稍作打量,百多年不见,对方功行进境也是颇快,顶上罡云已成三朵,只是尚未有霍轩那等抱团炼合之象,笑着稽首一礼,道:“自上回斗剑匆匆一别,不想已是过去百余载,荀道友一向可好？” Xun Huaiying is allowing to return salute, said: „Other day hoodwinked Fellow Daoist to lend a hand to assist, can the escape distress, after that then rubs the sword technique in in sect painstakingly, only Feng Haiyang is Fellow Daoist puts to death pitifully, otherwise decides must ask for advice again.” 荀怀英正容还礼,道:“上回蒙道友出手相助,得以脱难,自那之后,便在门中苦磨剑技,只可惜风海洋已为道友诛杀,不然定还要再去领教一回。” During speaking of behind, he said a word, quite had the meaning of regret. 说到后面,他言语之中,颇有遗憾之意。 Zhang Yan smiles, said: „Before Feng Haiyang by my to behead, once the language, can Fellow Daoist Xun want to know?” 张衍笑了笑,道:“风海洋被我斩杀之前,曾有一语,荀道友可想知道？” Method of Xun Huaiying to the Feng Haiyang, has asked for advice, when can want to see Zhang Yan in the star endolithic with it spars, is soul-stirring, hearing that person to spit the word at the point of death, reveals the color of attention unconsciously, said: „What did this person say?” 荀怀英对风海洋之手段,也是亲身领教过,可以想见张衍在星石内独自一人与其斗法时,是何等惊心动魄,听得其人临死吐言,不觉露出注意之色,道:“此人说了什么？” Zhang Yan said: „He said within the millenniums, there is Three Great Extreme Tribulations, asked that I can evade otherwise.” 张衍道:“他言千年之内,有三大重劫,问我能避否。” The Xun Huaiying vision concentrates, asks: „How unknown did Fellow Daoist answer?” 荀怀英目光一凝,问道:“未知道友如何作答？” Zhang Yan breaks into a hearty laugh, said: „I said other Great Tribulation, actually for our Destiny.” 张衍朗声一笑,道:“我言彼之大劫,却为吾辈之机缘。” Xun Huaiying changes countenance unconsciously, drinks a color, said: „Fellow Daoist good breadth of spirit!” 荀怀英不觉动容,喝一声彩,道:“道友好气魄！” Zhang Yan said generously: „World has Extreme Tribulations to lower, Nine Continents has the hero to well up numerously, is it possible that Fellow Daoist what Chouxun does not get the opponent!” ” 张衍慨然道:“天地既有重劫降下,九洲自有英杰纷涌,莫非道友何愁寻不得对手！”” The Xun Huaiying earnest nod, said: „Fellow Daoist said is extremely.” Afterward his eye of note Zhang Yan, sighed: „Pitifully under Fellow Daoist not my Lacking Purity Sect, I and you can only the reasoning, unable to discuss the sword, honest is the regrettable matter.” 荀怀英认真点头,道:“道友所言极是。”随后他目注张衍,叹道:“可惜道友非我少清门下,我与你只能论法,未能论剑,诚为憾事。” Zhang Yan shows a faint smile, said: „Actually not necessarily has nothing the opportunity.” 张衍微微一笑,道:“却未必无有机会。” The Xun Huaiying language has not actually thought much, he also knows Zhang Yan to excel at flying sword, but has not resulted in the main story after all, only discussed by Sword Dao, or was less than in sect low generation of disciple. 荀怀英却对此语未曾多想,他也知张衍擅长飞剑,但毕竟未得正传,只以剑道而论,或还不及门中低辈弟子。 The meaning of these not disparaging, he has nothing the famous teacher to direct to Zhang Yan, can actually arrive these step also admires today extremely. 这其中并无贬低之意,他对张衍无有名师指点,却能走到今天这一步也极为佩服的。 However Lacking Purity ten thousand years sword biography, soaked does not know that many senior Heart Blood, the worthy people of former times wisdom, this grade of inheritance, did not depend on the natural talent to be able easily to level only. 然而少清万载剑传,其中浸透了不知多少前辈心血,先贤智慧,这等传承,不是单靠天资就能轻易抹平的。 He leans over one step, said: „This desire asked Fellow Daoist to sit to my immortal cave, but Fellow Daoist this time was Azure Ocean Main Envoy, actually must stop over toward the stage meter hall toward east, I first assigned/life the person to report Uncle Master Ying one, if did not have the accident/surprise, clear(ly) said that worked as obviously.” 他侧过一步,道:“本欲请道友到我洞府一坐,不过道友此番为溟沧正使,却需往东朝台仪馆落脚,我先命人禀告婴师伯一声,若无意外,明曰当可见得。” The Lacking Purity Sect Sect Master Yue ordinarily not director, the First Disciple Ying Chunqiu of trade under by its takes the inside and outside, if by the latter in the in sect position, is roughly similar to Daoist Meng. 少清门岳掌门平曰并不理事,通产由其座下大弟子婴春秋总揽内外,若论后者在门中的地位,大致与孟真人相仿。 Zhang Yan to this situation is also very clear, thus nodded, said submissively: „That had work Fellow Daoist.” 张衍对这情形也是十分清楚,因而点点头,拱手道:“那就有劳道友了。” Xun Huaiying leads the way before, leading one line of hall pavilion place lines to go. 荀怀英在前引路,领着一行人馆阁所在行去。 Zhang Yan is to show the salute, getting down carriage escaped to be spatial and good, but this above, is sees 45 to hang above stage to have sword light unexpectedly to leap to plunder to put together the sound of striking, has to shout out indistinctly the howling sound, some people are locating Sword Battle at that obviously, but side Xun Huaiying was actually a comfortab appearance, pondered to say secretly: „Once heard that in Lacking Purity Sect said the battle, it seems like fruit non- empty language.” 张衍为示敬礼,下了车驾遁空而行,而这一路之上,竟是见得四五处悬台之上有剑光腾掠拼击之音,隐约还有呼喝啸响,显是有人正于那处斗剑,而身旁荀怀英却是一副早已习以为常的模样,不禁暗忖道:“曾闻少清门中曰曰争斗,看来果非虚语。” Xun Huaiying sees him to pay attention to float the islet everywhere, is pointing at the say/way: „This named sword stage, my in sect has accumulated of disciple in Sword Pill to have the sword knowledge every time, can have one in this, ten thousand years gets down, its number has more than 3000.” 荀怀英见他留神四处浮屿,便指着道:“此名为剑台,我门中每有一名弟子于剑丸中蕴出剑识,便可在此起得一座,万载下来,其数已有三千余。” Lacking Purity Sect in sect, high and low thousand count disciple, however can be called truly is the person of sword cultivator, actually only then more than 200, but takes a broad view at the world, no one dares to belittle, but this hanging sword stage, is the testimony of its ten thousand years inheritance. 少清派门中,上下有千数弟子,然而真正称得上为剑修之人,却只有两百余,但放眼天下,也无一人敢有小觑,而这悬空剑台,便是其万载传承之见证。 Zhang Yan looks into the distance to look, actually sees on many sword stages Sword Pill to be all placed on the stage the highest place, the like a pearl meteor, glows the flowing light extraordinary splendor, somewhat is actually astonished, then asked: „Doesn't Fellow Daoist Xun, why know this for?” 张衍放目览去,却见许多剑台上皆有一枚剑丸摆在台上最高处,宛如明珠飞星,焕发流光异彩,却是有些讶异,便问:“荀道友,不知此为何故？” The Xun Huaiying silent moment, said: „These Sword Pill all are the past said that passed away same sect to lose, is placed here, to await calmly his lord.” 荀怀英默然片刻,才道:“这些剑丸俱是昔曰亡故同门所遗,摆在此处,是为静待其主。” Sword Pill is to loyal to only the thing, each disciple results in the sword, if Nurturing has True Intelligence True Spirit, next life entering the Dao, Sword Pill, if with his god heart about the agreement, will still pursue to recognize the lord. 剑丸为至贞至净之物,每一名弟子得剑,若是孕养出真识真灵,来世入道,剑丸若是与其神心合契,仍会追去认主。 However can become sword cultivator, in ten thousand does not have one, after Reincarnation, even if can entering the Dao, not necessarily have this natural talent again, by these Sword Pill above 90% was still the without owner. 不过能成剑修者,万中无一,转生之后,纵然能再入道,却未必有这份天资了,是以这些剑丸90%之上仍是无主。 At this time Xun Huaiying referred to a being empty sword stage, said: „In the past Senior Brother Ban in this cultivate the dao, after he is missing, Sword Pill does not know the trace.” 这时荀怀英又指一处空无一物的剑台,道:“当年班师兄就是在此修道,然而自他下落不明后,连带剑丸也是不知所踪了。” Under the Zhang Yan heart moves slightly, asks: „Fellow Daoist Xun said that was that once Mingchuan four directions Ban Shaoming Daoist Priest Ban?” 张衍心下微微一动,问道:“荀道友所言,可是那位曾名传四方的班少明班道长么？” Xun Huaiying sighed: „precisely, Senior Brother Ban natural talent talent, all above me, if not had/left the accident/surprise, should be he has gone Sword Battle.” 荀怀英叹道:“正是,班师兄天资禀赋,皆在我之上,若非出了意外,本该是他前去斗剑的。” Zhang Yan listened to this language, is actually looking thoughtful. 张衍听了此语,却是若有所思。 Xun Huaiying another finger/refers of distant place, the sound enhanced several points, said: „Fellow Daoist please look at that place, that is dark green must, Zi Chen, Qing Lai three, lose for my Lacking Purity Sect three Ascend Daoist Master.” 荀怀英又一指远处,声音提高了几分,道:“道友请看那处,那是苍须,紫辰,青莱三台,为我少清派三位飞升真人所遗。” Zhang Yan refers to along him, the view goes with rapt attention, sees that place to set up three such as mountain Datai, hangs Vault of Heaven, majestic palatial, stands arrogantly void, and three soar to the heavens the clouds glow, Ye Ye proclaimed and made clear, imitated, if bright moon in spatial, its next several thousands floated the stage to compare with it, seemed the tile earth dust gravel. 张衍顺他所指,凝神观去,见那处立有三座如山大台,高悬天穹,雄壮巍峨,傲立虚空,且还有三道冲天霄芒,烨烨宣明,仿若皓月在空,其下数千浮台与之一比,好似成了瓦土尘砾。 East toward the stage is the Lacking Purity meter hall, in Sun Penetrating Great Peak Pillar due east position, however Profound Sect causes, can to here, only had Azure Ocean and Jade Firmament two schools. 东朝台为少清仪馆,在贯阳大岳墩正东位上,然而玄门来使,能被请至此处的,也就唯有溟沧、玉霄二派了。 When Zhang Yan one group of come here, after settling, Xun Huaiying said: „Fellow Daoist comes skillfully, these said that quarries a mountain to accept the disciple on my in sect, at present weather still early, not, if Xun brings Fellow Daoist to go a view.” 待张衍一行人到得此处,安顿下来后,荀怀英言道:“道友来得巧,这几曰恰逢我门中开山收徒,眼下天色尚早,不若荀某带道友前去一观。” „?” “哦？” Zhang Yan came several points of interest immediately, Profound Sect Ten Schools, beyond except Azure Ocean, Returning Truth/really, Lacking Purity, Mount Li and other factions, many are the Aristocratic Family large clan dominates, chooses the disciple custom is actually mostly the same except for minor differences. 张衍顿时来了几分兴致,玄门十派,除却溟沧、还真、少清、骊山等派之外,多为世家大族所把持,挑选弟子的规矩实则是大同小异。 But Lacking Purity because of lifting to send the sword cultivator gentleman, therefore, regards as important the natural talent talent especially, is not all able to base for a long time by any clan gate, it selects the disciple way is also different from various sect, now comes this, might as well has a liking for looked, then said joyfully: „That then disturbed.” 而少清因举派剑修士之故,尤其看重天资禀赋,是以任何族门皆无法立足长久,其择选弟子的方式也与诸派不同,如今既是来此,不妨看上一看,便欣然道:“那便搅扰了。” With Miao Kun and the others the sentence of looking, he then with Xun Huaiying together, vertical spreads to fly, the line has the moment, then along with it lowers before a Daoist temple. 与苗坤等人关照之句,他便与荀怀英一道,纵驰飞去,行有一刻,便随其在一处宫观前降下。 Xun Huaiying said: „Selecting disciple is under the matter of mountain, must toward Highest Heaven, I and others not need to rush about back and forth, here has a Profound Principles/Xuanji spring, can observe Mountain Sect / Gate all things.” 荀怀英道:“挑拣弟子乃下岳之事,需往极天之下,我等不必来回奔波,此处有一口玄机泉,能观山门诸事。” At this time Deacon Daoist ran from the palace in a hurry, bowed a ritual, said: „How does Daoist Master come here?” 这时一名执事道人自殿中匆匆跑了出来,躬身一礼,道:“真人怎来此处？” Xun Huaiying said: „I bring Azure Ocean Envoy to come this to look at the Mountain Sect / Gate scenery, and you opened restrictive seal, accommodates me and other view.” 荀怀英道:“我带溟沧使者来此观览山门景物,你且开了禁制,容我等一观。” daoist should be hastily, whisks a swayed the hand , the palace gate opens wide, later bows with hands clasped, said: „Daoist Master does as you please.” 道人连忙应是,把手中拂尘一摆,殿门洞开,随后一揖,道:“真人请便。” Two people arrive in the palace, Zhang Yan looks up, seeing the hundred zhang (333 m) distant place is one full is the mountain wall of moss, has clear spring together, gurgling flows from, forms a brook, but strange is, after water current to , forms dozens vortex, in each vortex, all appears a scenery, several just now pass through it institute. 两人到得殿内,张衍抬头看去,见百丈远处是一座满是青苔的山壁,有一道清泉,自上淙淙流淌下来,形成一条溪流,只是奇异的是,水流冲至下方之后,形成数十漩涡,每一个漩中,皆是显现出一处景物,有几个似是方才途经之所。 Xun Huaiying draws out the sleeve to wield, scatters the vortex draining away number, then departs together shining sword light from Astral Cloud, falls toward the water, instantly blooming light, mixes Hexi unexpectedly, is gives birth to a turbulence again. 荀怀英起袖一挥,将漩流尽数打散,而后自罡云之中飞出一道灿灿剑光,往水中一落,霎时绽放光明,竟是搅动河溪,再是生出一个涡漩来。 Crosses several breath, that fluctuates a scene. 过得几个呼吸,那其中就变幻出一幕景象来。 The Zhang Yan walks two steps to the mountain stream by, looks to look, the one who sees in this presents is an arched cliff great valley, side suffers a steep mountain ridge, north south, shape such as frontline, but at this moment over a thousand over ten thousand people climb up there slowly, is careful looks, unexpectedly many are the 15-16 years old youngster, even talent 7 or 8-year-old young child. 张衍两步走至溪水旁,望下看去,见此中呈现的乃是一处穹崖巨谷,旁挨一处陡峭山脊,南北走向,形如一线,而此刻正有上千上万人在那里缓慢攀爬,再仔细一看,竟然多是十五六岁的少年,甚至还有才七八岁的小童。 Xun Huaiying said: „In October of every year, in sect opens the door start/open Guan, every intends into my Lacking Purity cultivator, only need climb over this dragon Qibei alone, all may under the sect person for me.” 荀怀英道:“每年十月,门中开门启观,凡有意入我少清修道者,只需独自爬过这处龙鳍背,皆可为我下宗门人。” Zhang Yan knows Lacking Purity to elect the disciple so is not simple, this considers the first pass/test, but by the young body, can cross here alone, 张衍知晓少清选徒不会如此简单,这当是第一关,不过以稚龄之身,能独自过得此处, The Xun Huaiying sleeve wields, in the water the scene changes, actually before a cliff valley, the surroundings fog group wells up, just like floats the fine jade thin silk, above the vegetation all covered cold frost, was the appearance of the mountain was obviously higher. 荀怀英袖一挥,水中景象一变,却是到了一个断崖山壑之前,周围云雾团涌,犹如浮琼冰纨,草木之上皆是罩了一层寒霜,显是山势高了许多。 But compares it just now, before this moment cliff, few dozens people. 而比之方才,此刻崖前不过寥寥数十人。 Xun Huaiying said: „If passed just now that pass/test, can learn one set to breathe the technique of Breathing, if cultivation has, the second year may come in this Yue spot, has tried that Refining Heart Rope.” 荀怀英道:“若是过了方才那关,可以习得一套呼吸吐纳之术,若是修行有成,第二年就可来得这中岳处,试过那炼心索。” Zhang Yan asked: „What ‚Refining Heart Rope’?” 张衍问道:“何谓‘炼心索’？” Xun Huaiying put out a hand to select the cliff front, said: „Fellow Daoist invited the view.” 荀怀英伸手点了点断崖前方,道:“道友请观。” Zhang Yan concentrates the eye to look, sees that place indistinct cloud cluster, in addition, no other otherness, at this time actually youngster cautiously before that cliff the hanging place trod one step, figure, unexpectedly halted, then proceeded to step one step, shook in a flash, still came to a stop, but at this moment his did not have the thing support, looked that was Ling void/false stands unexpectedly. 张衍凝目看去,见那处只有飘渺云团,除此之外,别无他物,这时却有一名少年小心翼翼往那崖前悬空之处踏了一步,身形一顿,居然站住了,而后又往前跨了一步,晃了一晃,仍是站稳了,而此刻他脚下却无物支撑,看去竟是凌虚而立。 Xun Huaiying said lightly: „Ancestral Master once in this magic power, only had the firm resolve to endure the gentleman of surname, above the congealing solid under foot air/Qi rope, will walk, the will has to destabilize slightly, this rope way will then diverge, crashes into the abyss.” 荀怀英淡淡道:“祖师曾在此施了法力,唯有坚心忍姓之士,才会凝实脚下气索,行走其上者,心志稍有动摇,此索道便会散去,坠入深渊之中。” Zhang Yan looks, such as must arrive at the opposite cliff, almost must step onto ten thousand steps, but one step treads spatially, so long as in other words , has the least bit to suspect confusedly to oneself, will then be immediately beyond redemption. 张衍看去,如要到得对面断崖,差不多要走上万步,其中但有一步踏空,换言之只要对自身有半点怀疑迷茫,立刻便会万劫不复。 Must know these people vertical practices the technique of Breathing, may control is also the body of mortal, in the mountain the cold qi strong gale all can have the influence on it, can this pass/test, when must be rare endures the fearless gentleman. 需知这些人纵是练有吐纳之术,可左右也不过是凡人之躯,山中寒气烈风皆能对其造成影响,能过此关者,那当必是举世罕见的坚忍无畏之士。 When is looking, the youngster suddenly full head sweat that just now that strides, standing is motionless in that place, subsequently the figure sways fiercely. 正看时,方才那跨步出去的少年忽然满头大汗,站在那处一动不动,继而身形剧烈摇晃起来。 Xun Huaiying said indifferently: „He defeated.” 荀怀英漠然道:“他败了。” The sound of talking falls, youngster, is opening mouth greatly, the hands and feet swings randomly flings randomly, as if must grab anything, in the facial expression brings confusedly panic-stricken, the figure crashes, suddenly, submerged in the endless fog. 语声才落,少年脚下一空,大张着嘴,手脚乱摇乱甩,仿佛要抓着什么,神情之中带着迷茫惊恐,身形坠落下去,眨眼间,就没入了无尽云雾之中。 Zhang Yan asked: „Can under some people rescue?” 张衍问道:“下方可有人施救？” Xun Huaiying shakes the head saying: „The person of depreciation, if were rescued, tries our luck inevitably, that supposed this Refining Heart Rope to be immediately useless.” 荀怀英摇头道:“跌落之人若是被救,必然心存侥幸,那设此炼心索便就无用了。” Zhang Yan sighed one, the mortal sought is not easy, Lacking Purity was great Profound Sect great sect, specialized in Sword Dao, was especially harsh to the heart surname request, if his predecessor did not go to Azure Ocean, but came toward Lacking Purity, feared must fold here. 张衍微叹一声,凡人求道不易,少清乃是一等一玄门大派,又专修剑道,对心姓要求尤为苛刻,若是他前身不是去溟沧,而是往少清来,恐也是要折在此处。 Xun Huaiying lightly said: „If passes this pass/test, can go to opposite cliff to seek for Destiny, our generation buries ten Sword Pill in the mountain, so long as can look in 30 days, can enter the mountain, enters my sect.” 荀怀英淡声道:“若是过得此关,便可去对面崖中找寻机缘,我辈在山中埋有十枚剑丸,只要能在30天内找了出来,便可入得上岳,入我宗门。” „30 days?” “三十天？” Zhang Yan selects the eyebrow, this mountain what kind of vast and great, can the be continuous ten thousand li (0.5 km), by the body of mortal, the next two legs, 30 days go out solitarily far? To discover ten Sword Pill therein, that not less than looks for a needle in a haystack. 张衍一挑眉,这山岳何等广大,绵延万里,以凡人之躯,只身下两条腿,三十天又能走出多远？要想在其内找出十枚剑丸,那不啻大海捞针。 Xun Huaiying said: „At most 30 days, the opposite cliff does not have the food without the clothes, every other one month, will certainly have a cold wave, if also one of them, then must die without doubt, if at the appointed time has not sought Sword Pill, to preserve, then only has a law.” 荀怀英道:“至多三十天,对面崖无衣无食,每隔一月,必将起得一次寒潮,若是还在其内,则必死无疑,到时如还未寻得剑丸,若想保全,则唯有一法。” His paused, said solemnly: „On the old route from Refining Heart Rope returns, when cold wind in the past, seeks for Destiny toward the opposite again.” 他顿了顿,沉声道:“自炼心索上原路退回,待寒风过去后,再往对面找寻机缘。” ...... …… ......( To be continued.) ……(未完待续。)
