Since coming to Jingguo, Zhao Wuya can really be said to have refreshed Lu Chuan's impression of him time and time again.

It’s okay to build a sect and call it Qingyun Sect. I brought two little wives with me, one named Baguio and the other named Lu Xueqi...

How dare he? Isn't he the only person in the world who has watched "Zhu Xian" and is not afraid of death?

Even Lu Chuan felt sad for him, but Zhao Wuya himself didn't seem to feel embarrassed at all. As the owner of this place,

Zhao Wuya really showed all his sincerity in entertaining.

The exquisite delicacies are made by the chefs of the Jingguo Palace, and most of the ingredients used are specially supplied by the palace. The Jingguo Imperial Banquet is directly brought to your home.

The wine to drink is called Qian Jin Zui. It is a masterpiece from Zui Xian Lou, the world's number one brewing sect. The value of each bottle is comparable to the elixir of the earth. If you drink it happily, it will be as good as Lu Chuan pouring it on your forehead.

Photographing Yuanshi is even more luxurious.

There were even "Baguio" and "Lu Xueqi", Zhao Wuya summoned a dozen female disciples of "Xiao Zhufeng" to perform sword dance to add to the fun.

It seems to be a very reasonable thing.

However, Zhao Wuya and his Qingyun Sect are obviously very wealthy, but they prepare standard body-protecting robes for female disciples in such a stingy way and save fabrics. It is really puzzling.

In the end, Lu Chuan did not watch the dance. Jiao Beichuan righteously rejected the show prepared by Zhao Wuya. Zhao Manyu also put away the halberd she slapped on the table and looked at Zhao Wuya with extremely dissatisfied eyes.

"Lao Jiao, you must have other things to do with so many people here this time. I understand the rules and won't ask too many questions. However, I, Lao Zhao, have a certain status in Jingguo now. As long as you don't poke too much trouble,

I can cover all the baskets.

No matter what needs you have here, whether you need people, money, or identity,

Need to clear the relationship,

Just look for me.

Lao Yu, why are you looking at me?

Although our paths are different,

I do like to enjoy myself a bit, but after all, we have struggled together for so many years. No matter what you think of me, I definitely recognize you brothers in my heart."

After Zhao Wuya finished speaking, he raised the mysterious jade bottle in his hand and drank all the gold in the cup.

Of course he has the position to say this. He was there when Utopia was being built, and he was there when he fought against Wu State to defend Utopia. Leaving Utopia and joining Jing State was the choice of Zhao Wuya and Jing Congyun's two-way effort.

Although everyone was unhappy when Zhao Wuya left Utopia, even then, Yu Huan just beat him up and then let Zhao Wuya go to Jingguo to live the life he wanted.

After leaving Utopia for many years, although the dreams and vows he had made have faded in Zhao Wuya's heart, he would often think back to the days when he struggled together in Utopia, and the group of people who struggled together.

Of course, as long as his reason returns to his brain and he sees himself drunk in the lap of a beautiful woman,

Isn't it impossible to forget those days when Xing was in charge of the sect's happy life?

Zhao Wuya stopped talking about this,

The brothers present did not stop him from getting off the stage. Yu Huan and others also raised their bottles of wine and drank from afar with him.

They can still drink like they did back then, but the friendship here is no longer what it used to be. They all know Zhao Wuya's little thoughts. Even if he generously shows that he can protect him, they can't guard side by side like they did back then.

Utopia depends on life and death.

Those who are of the same mind will cherish each other, and those who are of different minds but not of the same mind will not seek each other, that's all.

...

Lu Chuan was very low-key at the dinner table in the evening. After dinner, he declined the ladies' service that Zhao Wuya enthusiastically arranged and stayed in the guest room in the courtyard. Zhao Wuya's garden was very large and there were arrangements for each guest.

Separate guest room.

After the meal, Jiao Beichuan left. He was an envoy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. When Zhao Wuya took him away for dinner, it was Old Zhao who forced him to brush his face. Of course, after the meal, Jiao Beichuan had to return to the Ministry of Rites.

Yu Huan followed Lu Chuan to his yard. In fact, he had not been away from Utopia for a long time, but it happened that Lu Chuan realized the way of the sword during this period of time.

"Old Zhao has paid his dues today. Qianjinzui is such an expensive wine. It is expensive for a reason. Move your body to release the power of the medicine." After Yu Huan walked into the yard, he checked everywhere and made sure it was safe.

He took out his training sword.

"I went to the Military Department to spar with them before I came here. I'm embarrassing you." Lu Chuan hadn't sparred with Yu Huan for a while, and he was actually a little itchy. The only swordsmanship opponents he could find in Utopia were Huo Changge and Old Huo.

If he cheats, he won't be able to play. If he doesn't cheat, he can fight with one hand, so there's no point in practicing.

"You are too preoccupied. You should focus on the sword, not winning or losing."

Yu Huan had already heard about the results of Lu Chuan's discussion at the Military Department from Jin Nanzhou, and Yu Huan didn't pay attention to the results at all.

Du Lang and others who are fighting Lu Chuan this time are all elites of the Military Department. They often spar with Yu Huan. They are also geniuses who have realized the Tao. Lu Chuan's sword skills are very similar to Yu Huan's, so they naturally

It's very familiar.

On the contrary, it was Lu Chuan who fought back and forth with these people for the first time. In fact, the shock to the Military Department was even greater than the last time when he had three wins and one loss.

But Yu Huan didn't say much. He just mentioned that he should focus on the way of swordsmanship. It was a good thing that Lu Chuan had a strong desire to win. It would be difficult for a monk without a desire to win or lose to go very far on the road of practice.

The intensity and pressure given by Yu Huan were so strong that Lu Chuan quickly recalled his experience with Dao that night. The real version of Yu Huan was even better than his phantom in the sword.

However, Lu Chuan has not been idle during this period. The last time he achieved enlightenment, his cultivation level also exceeded the realm. The improvement in realm brings all aspects, including stronger physical fitness, faster energy circulation speed, and stronger spiritual roots.

...

"Have you improved the Feng Ying Step?" The two of them exchanged more than a hundred moves, and Yu Huan discovered a surprise. Not only the Feng Ying Step, but also the "Shocking Dragon" that Yu Huan casually taught Lu Chuan to show off was also modified by Lu Chuan.

A simplified version.

"After I realized the Tao last time, I corrected the things that I felt were a little awkward while practicing. By the way, Uncle Yu, what are those phantoms on the kendo? Is the phantom I encountered at that time really you?"

"I can't tell you exactly what it is. If I have to say it, it should be the past me. I call it the kendo trial. It should be that the kendo I walked through was recognized and formed this trial.

If a new person steps into the path of swordsmanship and touches my trial, I will be able to sense it. I am very familiar with your swordsmanship, so I will recognize it immediately."

"Ah? Then I fought with several phantoms before, don't they all know about me?"

"Do you think the people who can take photos in the kendo are just cabbage? Most of the people you meet are figures in the history of this world. Their bodies and souls have long been destroyed, leaving only shadows on the kendo."

Yu Huan was not angry. He had been traveling in the kendo all year round and had seen many amazing and talented people. Those legends known as sword immortals, sword demons and sword sages had left traces of their existence on the kendo, allowing future generations to travel through time and experience

dance together in resonance.

If he hadn't seen these existences, how could he only be known as the best swordsman in the world? He had already claimed to be the strongest swordsman in Qing history.

"Uncle Yu, it turns out that your attainments in swordsmanship have already made you a historical figure."

"Be humble, the path of swordsmanship is long, and you must guard against arrogance and impetuosity in practice. With your talent, it is only a matter of time before you leave a mark on the path of swordsmanship."

Lu Chuan's words scratched Yu Huan's itch. Yu Huan was a little embarrassed to be praised by his apprentice, so he praised him in return.

"Uncle Yu, can one person practice multiple paths at the same time?" Lu Chuan remembered the many paths he saw the last time he used the combination of body and path. Yu Huan was his leader in practice, so it would definitely be wrong to ask him for advice.

wrong.

"It is possible to practice multiple paths, but it is more difficult. Enlightenment requires talent and sufficient understanding. There are not many people in our Utopia who can walk multiple paths. Most of them find the talisman that Wen Jin got to understand the path after they have a feeling.

but.

It’s not clear whether it would be better to understand multiple paths. From the perspective of Wen Jin and others who are trying it, the improvement of strength may not be better than focusing on one path.”

Lu Chuan nodded. Even the first batch of chosen people who have traveled through time have only been practicing for more than thirty years. Everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones and exploring a more suitable path of cultivation in practice.

The two chatted for a few words and then drew their swords to fight again. For the two of them, this was a very natural thing. They practiced swordsmanship in Beining City, and they practiced swordsmanship in Utopia. Now in Jingguo, they have also just changed.

A place to practice swordsmanship.

With good talent, sufficient resources, and enough diligence, the most ideal way to practice is this.

...

Lu Chuan's plan to come to Jingguo this time did not include entering the palace to meet Jing Congyun. Although he had the reputation of being an employee of the Science Department and the person in charge of the S-level mission in Utopia, he was clearly

He is only a relatively transparent figure within the mission and externally.

Of course, this was what Lu Chuan thought. Cheng Guanxue had warned Lu Chuan before he arrived that Jing Congyun might have noticed him a long time ago and he needed to make plans in advance.

However, Jing Congyun was very interested in Lu Chuan, especially after he guessed that Lu Chuan might have played an important role in the Tianxuan incident, his interest in Lu Chuan became even stronger.

The golden fingers of the chosen people in Utopia are a secret, but it is not a strict secret. A newcomer like Lu Chuan, who has come to this world and has been in the public eye for several months, still keeps his golden fingers extremely secret. Obviously, it is

problematic.

Jing Congyun specifically inquired about the information about Lu Chuan's golden finger, and got two answers. One was that it could travel through time and retrace scenes, and the other was that the speed of cultivation was astonishingly fast.

But neither answer can logically explain why Lu Chuan's status in Utopia has improved so quickly, nor can they explain why such a golden finger needs to be kept secret.

So he sent an invitation to the Utopia mission the day after it arrived in Qingjuan, inviting everyone in the mission to come to the palace for a formal meeting and negotiation.

The location of the Jingguo Imperial Palace is said to be exactly at the center of a circle surrounded by twelve Tongtian Pillars outside Qingjuan City. When Lu Chuan received the notice from Jiao Beichuan to go to the palace, he happened to be chatting with Lu Mo, Cheng Guanxue and others about Tongtian.

Things about the Pillar and the Temple of God.

According to the historical records of Jingguo known to Lu Mo, the twelve Tongtian Pillars have existed here since history. As for why there are Tongtian Pillars, there is basically no historical data that can explain it clearly. Basically, it is a simple saying of God.

Gift.

Rumor has it that as long as mortals can climb up the Tongtian Pillar, they can see the Kingdom of God and see the gods.

Of course, Lu Chuan and others criticized this kind of nonsense that deceived the ignorant people. They would not believe it at all, and it would certainly not be recorded in the history books. Countless people have died from falling from this pillar in history.

But of course there is no answer found in history books as to whether the Tongtian Pillar was established by gods.
