Especially after hearing Su Chen's evaluation, everyone felt even more jealous and dissatisfied.
Yan Fei is incredibly lucky.
The Immortal Sword Sect, a thousand years ago, had two treasured artifacts that had been passed down through the martial arts world for eight hundred years without anyone inheriting them, but he ended up getting them both.
This luck is simply incredible.
Lang Fanyun comprehended the way of heaven and earth, and Dugu Qiubai used battle to sustain his own battles; both of them forged their own paths in the sword and created their own sword techniques.
So what? Yan Fei's top-tier skill, obtained through luck, completely outshone them all.
Even Li Changsheng, who created his own cultivation method, was only at the same level as Yan Fei in terms of cultivation.
Yan Fei proved with facts how important powerful secret techniques are, and that luck is also a part of strength.
In the first private room on the east side of the fifteenth floor.
A glint flashed in Fusu's eyes as he whispered, "Huang Jian Yanfei, a cultivator from the Jianghu of the Great Sui Dynasty. Could it really be as the Celestial Immortal said, that there are cultivators and immortals in the Jianghu of every dynasty?"
There are still many secrets in this world that are not known to others.
"I wonder if our Great Qin has any such cultivation sects and traditions?"
Zhang Han echoed this sentiment.
If he was previously skeptical about the existence of so many cultivators, he has now begun to believe.
Zhao Gao, standing to the side, had a deep look in his eyes and was equally interested in this.
Cultivating immortality is the path to eternal life; who wouldn't want it?
In the first private room on the fourteenth floor, on the north side,
"I never imagined that there was a cultivation sect in the martial arts world of my Great Sui Dynasty a thousand years ago."
A middle-aged man sat in the main seat and spoke with a serious expression.
He was tall and imposing, with a long sword hanging at his waist, as if to remind others that he possessed unparalleled swordsmanship.
This person was none other than Song Que, the Heavenly Blade, who had traveled a long way from the Jianghu of the Great Sui Dynasty.
He originally came for the Nine Provinces Sword Immortal Ranking, but unexpectedly learned that there was an immortal cultivator in the martial arts world of the Great Sui Dynasty.
"Father, have you heard of this Desolate Sword Swallow Flying?"
Sitting on the left, Song Shidao asked curiously.
Song Que nodded slightly: "I have a vague impression of this name. He performed exceptionally well in the border war two hundred years ago and even killed the number one villain in the martial arts world at that time—the living Maitreya Zhu Faqing of the Maitreya Sect."
Upon hearing this, both Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi, who was opposite him, showed expressions of surprise.
The Great Living Maitreya Zhu Faqing of the Maitreya Sect!
This name is famous throughout the martial arts world of the Sui Dynasty, and he is known as the most terrifying evil Buddha three hundred years ago.
Born into a Buddhist family, he created the unparalleled "Ten Abodes Mahayana Practice" and should have become a great Buddha. However, due to his cruelty and greed, he attempted to dominate the world, which aroused countless resentments.
But all that is known in the martial arts world is that Zhu Faqing was killed by a mysterious master, and no one knows who it was.
"Legend has it that Zhu Faqing's Buddhist skills have reached the level of a terrestrial immortal."
"Yan Fei was actually able to defeat him, that's really impressive."
Song Yuzhi said in surprise.
Song Que nodded, gripping the long sword at his waist with one hand, his eyes serious.
He originally thought that the strongest person in the Sui Dynasty was Ning Daoqi, the number one Taoist, and that he could become the number one martial artist in the Sui Dynasty by surpassing Ning Daoqi.
But now it seems he was clearly too naive.
Ning Daoqi is only the most prominent figure in the public eye. In the unknown world of martial arts, there are countless other top masters hidden among them.
Su Chen waited for a while, and seeing that no one asked any questions, he was somewhat disappointed, so he had no choice but to continue:
"Next, let's comment on the next sword immortal on the list."
"Ranked twelfth on the Nine Provinces Sword Immortal Ranking, Dugu Jian."
"Many people in the martial arts world must have heard of this swordsman."
Almost every swordsman in the Han Dynasty's martial arts world knows his name.
After all, he was only the second person in the past two hundred years of the martial arts world of the Han Dynasty to be called the "Sword Saint".
Dugu Jian was born in Wushuang City, just like Xie Xiaofeng was born in Shenjian Villa. He was destined to be extraordinary from birth.
Moreover, like Xie Xiaofeng, his swordsmanship talent was revealed early on, shocking the entire martial arts world.
He began learning swordsmanship at the age of five, and by the age of seven, he could break through Vajra with a single sword strike. This startled the Peerless Sword, which had been sealed away in Peerless City for a hundred years. The sword rang out and automatically recognized its master.
At the age of thirteen, he had already reached the Great Freedom Realm. In pursuit of the ultimate swordsmanship, he traveled the world with his sword. In Japan, he met his lifelong love, Miyamoto Yukino, and together they created the peerless sword technique, "Holy Spirit Sword Technique".
At that time, there was a force in the martial arts world called the Tianchi Organization, which had a total of 108 experts, all of whom had reached the fourth level of the Innate Realm or above.
This organization is ambitious and wants to dominate the martial arts world. Any sect that does not obey them will be assassinated by them, resulting in heavy casualties and angering everyone in the martial arts world.
At the age of thirty, Dugu Jian, upholding a sense of justice, challenged the 108 members of the Tianchi Organization with only his sword.
That battle was earth-shattering. Dugu Jian entered the Earth Immortal realm with a single sword strike, reducing the 108 people to only 12.
He became famous throughout the martial arts world because of this battle, and became the second generation of Great Han Sword Saint after the first generation Sword Saint Huangfu Jian.
From then on, Dugu Jian was known as the "Sword Saint" and enjoyed a glorious career in the martial arts world for twenty years, his fame spreading far and wide.
Even Bei Li's Peerless City has dropped the word "Peerless" because the real Peerless City is the Great Han Peerless City, which is guarded by Dugu Jian.
Until the nameless appeared.
That year, Wuming was nineteen years old.
That year, Dugu Jian was fifty years old and had already reached the realm of a terrestrial immortal.
However, the result of their fight was that Wuming had a slight advantage, and Dugu Jian therefore sheathed his sword and never showed his face again.
During this period, Dugu Jian continuously tried to make the twenty-two forms of the "Holy Spirit Sword Technique" even more powerful.
But the Holy Spirit Sword Technique is already a top-tier sword technique, so how easy is it to take it a step further?
He pursued it desperately but could never get it, and gradually went crazy. One night, he dreamed that he stepped into a mysterious Nine Void Secret Realm and obtained an amazing divine sword technique called "Sword Twenty-Three".
This sword technique, though only three moves long, transcends the realm of martial arts and enters the realm of immortality.
The first move alone, "Earth Destroying Sword Twenty-Three," is already far more powerful than the strongest move in the "Holy Spirit Sword Technique."
If one can master the third move, even a terrestrial celestial being can be easily killed. Its power is comparable to a full-force attack from a celestial being at the Great Longevity Realm.
After obtaining this sword technique, Dugu Jian treasured it greatly and devoted himself to studying it for decades.
But this sword technique is far too profound.
Even a genius like him has not yet fully grasped the first move.
When he truly understands this move, that will be the time for him to return to the martial arts world.
As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, the hall erupted in chaos.
The Great Han Dynasty's Sword Saint, Dugu!
That's a very important person.
The title "Sword Saint" is different from "Sword Immortal".
For nearly a hundred years, any swordsman who has reached the realm of carefree immortality can be called a "sword immortal".
But the title of "Sword Saint" is not easily obtained.
There can be many sword immortals in the martial arts world, but there can only be one sword saint!
Only the most outstanding swordsmen recognized by the entire martial arts world are qualified to receive this title.
The fact that only two Sword Saints have emerged in the two hundred years of the Han Dynasty's martial arts world shows how difficult it is to obtain this title.
This is why every sword saint is a renowned figure, revered by swordsmen of all dynasties.
In particular, the heroes of the Han Dynasty regarded Dugu Sword Saint as the pinnacle of swordsmanship.
But more than forty years ago, Dugu Jian suddenly disappeared from the martial arts world, and no one knows why.
Now the truth has finally come out.
The reason why Dugu Jian sealed his sword was because he was defeated by Wuming, who was only nineteen years old.
This secret shocked everyone present.
At that time, Dugu Jian was already fifty years old. Not only had he mastered the Holy Spirit Sword Technique, but he had also reached the realm of a terrestrial immortal.
The incredibly powerful Dugu Jian was defeated by Wuming, who was not even twenty years old.
The nameless legend of the martial arts world!
This is undoubtedly a renowned master.
But no one expected him to be so powerful.
The thought that Wuming was so talented yet died in his forties due to a qi deviation filled everyone with deep regret, lamenting the injustice of fate that buried such a genius.
What was even more shocking was Su Chen's next statement.
Dugu Jian dreamt of entering the Nine Heavens and obtained a celestial sword technique called "Sword Twenty-Three"!
The power of this sword technique far exceeds everyone's imagination.
The first move surpassed the strongest sword strike that Dugu Jian had mastered in his entire life.
The third move can instantly kill a terrestrial celestial being, with power comparable to a full-force attack from a celestial being at the Great Longevity Realm.
That's the ultimate longevity of heaven and man!
Even Li Chungang, the sword god of the Liyang Jianghu, could not reach this level.
This sword technique was something Dugu Jian obtained in a dream.
Even the plot in the novel is only mediocre.
But these words came from the mouth of the Celestial Immortal, so who would dare not believe them?
Immediately, a buzz of discussion arose in the hall:
