Shi Potian travels through Linghu Chong

Chapter 87 Chong'er Never Lies
Yu Jizi had thought that he would lose to Shi Potian, but he never thought that he would lose so quickly. He could not accept it for a moment, and regardless of the fact that he had already lost, he suddenly changed his sword moves and slashed towards Shi Potian diagonally.

After Shi Potian slapped Yu Jizi with a palm, he had already stepped back and was about to stop. Seeing Yu Jizi rushing forward again, he thought that the opponent wanted to continue the sparring, so he leaped backwards following the strong wind of the long sword, almost dodging it by sticking to the long sword.

The ordinary disciples from the four surrounding sects all exclaimed in surprise, feeling it was extremely dangerous.

However, masters like Yue Buqun, Master Dingxian, Mr. Mo Da, and Taoist Tianmen saw that Shi Potian's leap was just right, neither too much nor too little, and was exactly at the limit of Yu Jizi's sword, which was within reach.

At this moment, Shi Potian took a step forward and slapped Yu Jizi again.

Yu Jizi was well prepared this time and reacted almost instantly. He dodged backwards while swinging his sword towards Shi Potian's arm.

Snapped!
But next second.

Shi Potian patted him on the chest again, even the position was exactly the same as before.

Yu Jizi's face suddenly changed and he stood there, recalling what had just happened in his mind. He had clearly calculated the opponent's position, attack speed and even the length of his arm, so why did he still get hit by him?
Shi Potian had been instructing his fellow disciples on martial arts during this period, and he could tell what Yu Jizi was thinking at a glance, and subconsciously said, "The way of swordsmanship requires you to move freely like flowing clouds and water, and do whatever you want. You have calculated too much, and this has constrained yourself, making all your actions traceable, and you have fallen behind."

Shi Potian was sincerely teaching Yu Jizi the sword technique, but to Yu Jizi, he sounded like a veiled criticism of his conduct in society, using his sword technique to criticize his behavior. His old face immediately turned red, and he shouted, "Shut up!" He bent his body and thrust his sword towards Shi Potian.

All that could be heard was the humming sound of the sword, and the long sword in Yu Jizi's hand actually bent and swayed like a soft sword, causing a surge of sword light, layer upon layer, shining like a silver ribbon.

Yue Buqun and the others were seeing this kind of move for the first time and were all surprised.

Taoist Tianmen's eyes widened instantly and he cried out, "This, this is the 'Yellow River Golden Belt'?!"

Yu Yinzi said proudly: "Junior Brother Tianmen, you have quite a good eye! That's right, Senior Brother used the Yellow River Golden Belt that has been lost for decades in our Taishan Sect!"

Most of the Taishan sword techniques were evolved by the Taishan predecessors from the scenery of Taishan, such as "Eighteen Bends of Taishan", "Laihe Qingquan", "Shiguan Huima", "Happy Three" and so on.

The "Golden Belt of the Yellow River" is one of the four great wonders of Mount Tai. It is also one of the very few secret caves in the Siguo Cliff that have its moves engraved on them. However, except for the masters of the Taishan School, no one can use this killer move.

Because when this sword move is used, the Taishan School's unique internal force needs to be infused into the long sword, assisted by a special technique to vibrate the sword body, so that the long sword can be transformed from hard to soft, thus achieving the effect of alternating hardness and softness, and parallel yin and yang, making it impossible to defend against.

Yu Jizi was able to restore this move only after he obtained the lost sword technique of Taishan School in the secret cave of Siguo Cliff.

He had originally planned to use it as a trump card to fight for the position of leader of the Five Mountains, but at this point he was already furious and humiliated, so he didn't care about so much anymore. He just wanted to get his place back and let Shi Potian know how powerful he was.

Shi Potian saw this kind of move for the first time and couldn't help but let out a light exclamation. He found it very strange and stretched out his hand to slap Yu Jizi's sword.

Seeing that Shi Potian was so arrogant, Yu Jizi's eyes flashed with sternness and he increased the strength in his hands.

They had already set the rules before, that they would only compete in moves and not in internal strength.

If Shi Potian abides by the agreement, his mortal body will not be able to take the sword head-on. He can take the opportunity to accidentally injure someone and eliminate Shi Potian, the great enemy.

If Shi Potian breaks his promise and uses his internal force to take the attack, then he will have a perfect excuse for his defeat, and he can also use it to accuse Shi Potian of having the intention to harm his fellow Taoists.

Nun Dingxian, Mr. Mo Da and the others were all shocked. Even Yue Buqun, who had the most confidence in Shi Potian, changed his expression and hurriedly reminded him loudly: "Chong'er, don't be so arrogant!"

But it was too late.

Yu Jizi's body was as fast as lightning. He pounced forward and swung his sword. A cold light flashed by, like a silk thread across the sky.

Then, Shi Potian leaped back, distanced himself from Yu Jizi, and turned back to explain, "Master, I am not arrogant."

The whole process takes only a moment.

Not to mention the ordinary disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, even Yue Buqun and others, due to the angle, only saw the two people meet and then separate, without being able to see clearly what exactly happened.

The only thing that could be confirmed was that there was no blood on the ground, Shi Potian was not injured, and there was no internal force collision between the two sides.

Shi Potian must have withdrawn his hand and stepped back at the last moment, avoiding Yu Jizi's sword.

Yu Jizi also thought so, and said coldly: "Boy, don't you want to snatch the sword with your bare hands? Why are you afraid when the time comes?"

Shi Potian shook his head and said, "I didn't intend to snatch the sword with my bare hands."

Yu Jizi sneered, "If you don't want to take the sword with your bare hands, then what did you want to do when you stretched out your hand just now?"

Shi Potian said: "I think your swordsmanship is very interesting, and I want to see how you use it." He drew the long sword from his waist and gently twisted it with his right hand. There was a slight humming sound, and the sword swayed gently like the wave.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Silence fell.

Even those who had just learned swordsmanship could see that the sword technique used by Stone Breaking Angel was the same one that Yu Ji Zi had just used!
Yu Jizi's eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost, and he cried out, "How did you do that?!"

Shi Potian didn't understand why Yu Jizi asked him this question now since it was Yu Jizi who used it first, but he still explained: "To turn hardness into softness, there are two key points. The first is internal force, which is to let the yin and yang internal forces collide and stir on the sword. The second is the sword itself. The swords you use are different from the swords we use in Huashan Sect. They should be special..."

"Chong'er, shut up!"

Yue Buqun interrupted Shi Potian hastily, turned to look at Tianmen Taoist, and said apologetically: "Chong'er has forgotten what happened in the past and said something rude, please don't be offended, Senior Brother."

Shi Potian felt a little aggrieved, but seeing that his master kept winking at him, he just kept quiet.

Yue Buqun apologized to Tianmen Taoist, but in his heart he was thinking: "No wonder I always felt uncomfortable when practicing Taishan swordsmanship before. It turns out that it is not only due to internal strength, but also the weapon. Taishan Sect has hidden it very well."

Taoist Tianmen finally came to his senses, but he was still completely confused and had no idea what to do.

The fact that weapons are made of special materials and using special methods is one of the biggest secrets of the Taishan Sect.

Not to mention outsiders, even most of Taishan disciples themselves don't know. They only think that the combination of hardness and softness of Taishan swordsmanship is the result of Taishan School's unique internal strength and swordsmanship moves, and they don't know the important role that weapons play in it.

As a result, today, Shi Potian saw through everything after just a few moves with Yu Jizi, and was even able to imitate it directly.

Yue Buqun felt extremely complicated when he saw Tianmen Taoist's helpless look. He was happy that his competitor for the position of leader of the Five Mountains was such a loser, but he was also worried and helpless about having such a useless teammate in the future.

Taoist Tianmen did not rush to take over the conversation and deny what Shi Potian had just said.

Once the news that "Taishan Sect needs special weapons to exert its full strength" spreads, the Demon Cult will definitely find a way to attack your weapons, and Taishan Sect's strength will definitely be affected, or even greatly reduced. Mr. Mo Da realized the seriousness of the matter and forced himself to interrupt, "Nephew Linghu, Taoist Yuji is asking how you know all this? How did you learn it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Compared to complicated things like the collision and agitation of the yin and yang internal forces, they are more curious about this.

Yue Buqun breathed a sigh of relief, and seeing Shi Potian looking at him, he nodded slightly, indicating that Shi Potian could answer.

Nowadays, their Huashan Sect no longer needs to keep a low profile, but must show its strength and increase its reputation in the martial arts world as much as possible. First, they want to seize the position of the leader of the Five Mountains, and then destroy the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, and step by step become a martial arts holy place on par with Shaolin and Wudang!

Shi Potian said: "I just reached out to touch Senior Yu Jizi's sword just now, just to figure out the fluctuations of the true qi on the sword, and then do the same."

There was dead silence.

Shi Potian's words were concise and clear, and everyone could understand them, but...

What kind of explanation is this!

Can you figure out the changes in the opponent's true energy by touching his weapon?
Can it be imitated instantly?
Mr. Mo Da looked at Shi Potian's sincere and serious expression, which did not seem fake, but his reason kept telling him that this was simply impossible. He turned to look at Yue Buqun.

Everyone's eyes followed him and looked at Yue Buqun.

Yue Buqun was extremely proud in his heart, but he said calmly: "Chong'er never lies."

Just six words were like a spark thrown into a pile of explosives. There was an instant uproar inside and outside the Zhengqi Hall, and the sound of noisy discussions rose to the sky.

Belief and disbelief are equally divided.

The disciples of Huashan and Hengshan chose to believe without hesitation.

The former was smug and proud, with a smile on his face almost reaching his ears, but he was still trying hard to imitate Yue Buqun and pretend to be calm and composed.

The latter didn't have so many thoughts. They first exclaimed in surprise, and then praised Shi Potian in unison.

The Hengshan disciples and the Taishan disciples did not believe it at all and thought that Yue Buqun and Shi Potian were just bragging.

The Taishan disciples, in particular, thought back to when Yu Jizi and the other two had asked Yue Buqun for the Taishan swordsmanship, and concluded that Shi Potian had secretly learned the Taishan swordsmanship in advance.

Several Taishan disciples immediately jumped out and questioned, "What a joke! How is it possible that someone in this world can know how others circulate their Qi just by touching it with their hands, and can imitate it immediately?"

"If that's the case, wouldn't he be able to learn all the martial arts just by walking around? He clearly stole the martial arts from our Taishan Sect!"

When the disciples of Huashan and Hengshan sects heard someone say this about Shi Potian, they immediately began to refute: "Senior Brother Linghu is not that kind of person!"

"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't do it! I see you're all quite old now. When you were my senior brother's age, how much strength could you have?"

The disciples of the four sects immediately started quarreling, turning Zhengqi Hall into a vegetable market.

Yue Buqun, Mr. Mo Da, Master Ding Xian and the others did not speak up to stop them. With their quarrel, attention was distracted and not many people cared about what Shi Potian had said about the Taishan Sect's weapons.

Shi Potian saw everyone quarreling over his own affairs, so he quickly circulated his Qi and shouted, "Stop quarreling!"

He didn't know how to use sonic energy, but he had strong internal strength. With a shout, he instantly suppressed everyone else's voice.

Shi Potian said: "Uncle Mo, I really did not lie. If you don't believe me, you can try it." He turned the sword over, held it in both hands, and handed it to Mr. Mo.

Mr. Mo Da waved his hand and said, "If I didn't trust Sect Leader Yue, how could I support him to become the new leader of the Five Mountains?"

He was actually half-believing and half-doubting. While his reason told him that this was impossible, it also told him that there was no need for Yue Buqun to lie about such a thing.

Shi Potian had previously defeated Lu Bai and his two companions in Hengshan City alone, and also broke through an ambush of gangsters in Wan'an Mountain, capturing alive 17 Songshan disciples of the same generation as Zuo Lengchan, including Zhong Zhen.

Just the above incident has made Shi Potian famous and he is regarded as the best master of the younger generation in the world.

The latter two things have not spread yet. Once they spread, Shi Potian will definitely be regarded as one of the top masters in the martial arts world today, and his reputation will probably catch up with Feng Qingyang back then.

There was no need for Yue Buqun to use such means to build momentum for Shi Potian.

Master Dingxian nodded and said, "Mr. Mo Da is right. I also believe what Mr. Yue and Nephew Linghu said."

Shi Potian had no choice but to look at Taoist Tianmen and called out, "Uncle Tianmen."

Taoist Tianmen hesitated for a moment, and was about to take the long sword when Yu Jizi suddenly said, "What's the point of trying this? I know exactly what the Yellow River Golden Belt is! Nephew Linghu has such talent and ability, it's really God's blessing on the righteousness of the martial arts world! Congratulations, Master Yue!"

Taoist Tianmen was stunned.

Yuqingzi and Yuyinzi reacted very quickly. They immediately stepped forward to apologize to Yue Buqun and Shi Potian, saying that all the previous incidents were misunderstandings. They then grabbed Shi Potian and praised him profusely.

Yue Buqun kept saying that it was okay, and told Yu Jizi and the other two that if they had any doubts in the future, they could just tell him in person. In his heart, he also looked up to Yu Jizi and the other two.

Compared to Tianmen Taoist, the character of Yu Jizi and the other two may be a little worse and more selfish, but they are flexible and know how to adapt, and are indeed more suitable to be the leader of a sect than Tianmen Taoist.

Taoist Tianmen came back to his senses, but didn't know what to say. He could only nod in agreement with Yu Jizi and the other two.

Following the successive statements made by the leaders of the three sects, the disciples of the Taishan and Hengshan sects outside did not dare to question anything even though they were still having doubts in their hearts.

After the commotion caused by Yu Jizi and the other two, the fact that Yue Buqun had discovered the lost sword techniques of the Five Mountains sects in the secret cave on the Huashan Sect's Siguo Cliff became known to everyone in the four sects.

Mr. Mo Da, Master Ding Xian, and Taoist Priest Tianmen no longer hid their knowledge and immediately passed on their newly acquired sword skills to their respective disciples, urging them to learn them as quickly as possible and improve their strength.

For a moment, the whole Huashan was bustling with activity, and disciples from various sects were practicing swordsmanship intensively.

It was in this atmosphere that the fifteenth day of the ninth month came.

　I will update it tomorrow... I am begging for a monthly ticket...
