Chapter 951 A Strong Enemy Arrives

For hundreds of years, Shaolin and Wudang, as the leaders of the martial arts world, have been duty-bound to fight against the demon sect, but the final result is that both sides suffer losses.

Shaolin and Wudang both feel that it is too dangerous to fight against the Sun and Moon Sect in this way, and there is a risk of extermination and severance of inheritance.

So they thought of a tactic that Zheng Zhijia in later generations has tried and failed - proxy war.

In later international relations, if two major powers are evenly matched and hostile to each other, they do not have the courage to perish together, but want to vent their hostility to each other.

At this time, at least one of them will choose to support a third party to fight against his enemy.

This third party does not have to be too powerful, and even weapons, military, economy and other aspects need foreign aid support, but it can stir up the existing pattern and cause great trouble or harm to the enemy.

So Shaolin and Wudang began to avoid direct conflict with the Sun and Moon Sect, and set their sights on the Five Mountains Sword Sect, which was only a second-rate sect at that time.

The Five Mountains Sword Sects have been established for hundreds of years, but why did they suddenly rise sixty or seventy years ago and surpass the traditional major sects such as Emei, Kunlun, and Kongtong?

This is because before that, Shaolin and Wudang had been curbing and suppressing the growth and development of these five sects.

As righteous sects, there must be a boss and a second among the same industry, and this is true in all walks of life in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad.

But compared with the life-and-death struggle between good and evil, the competition between Shaolin, Wudang and the Five Mountains Sword Sects is relatively benign, at least on the surface.

The contradiction between good and evil is the main contradiction, and the contradiction between the righteous sects can only be regarded as a secondary contradiction.

Therefore, Shaolin and Wudang chose the lesser of two evils and began to focus on the big and let go of the small, encouraging and promoting the alliance and rise of the Five Mountains Sword Sects, and successfully diverted the contradiction between them and the Sun Moon Sect with a book "Sunflower Manual" and a tool man Lin Yuantu.

The Five Mountains Sword Sect rose up and became the third largest righteous force after Shaolin and Wudang.

However, there is no free lunch in the world. To be an agent, you must be prepared for death and destruction of territory.

The conflict between the Five Mountains Sword Sect and the Sun Moon Sect was very fierce. Since the Huashan Sect was robbed of the "Sunflower Manual", the war has entered a white-hot stage since the beginning.

Yue Su, Cai Zifeng and other big figures of the Five Mountains Sword Sect died in the first conflict. In the second conflict, the sword moves of the Five Mountains Sword Sect were all broken, and the ten elders of the Sun Moon Sect were trapped in the cave.

Both sides were seriously injured by this conflict, but the war did not end because of this. In the following decades, the main force against the Sun Moon Sect has always been the Five Mountains Sword Sect, and the two sides have been fighting.

For example, Tianmen Taoist's master died at the hands of a female elder of the Demon Sect.

For another example, after an elder of the Sun Moon Sect was expelled from the sect, he was besieged and killed by masters of the Songshan Sect, Taishan Sect, and Hengshan Sect.

For example, a junior brother of Songshan Sect Zuo Lengchan named Sun was captured by the Sun Moon Sect and had his hands and feet cut off and his eyes gouged out.

For decades, the blood feud between the Five Mountains Sword Sect and the Sun Moon Sect has been unable to be resolved, while Wudang and Shaolin have been recuperating for decades, staying behind the scenes and no longer fighting.

Who has benefited from this situation? Who has suffered a loss?

For the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Shaolin and Wudang, everyone gets what they need and it is a win-win situation.

Shaolin and Wudang still hold the reins of the martial arts world and have had decades of peace.

Although the Five Mountains Sword Sect suffered heavy losses, it also established its image and status in the righteous path through the confrontation with the Sun Moon Sect and cultivated a group of talents with outstanding abilities and martial arts.

If the situation can continue like this, Shaolin and Wudang will laugh in their dreams.

It's a pity that because of the appearance of two people, the good calculations that Shaolin and Wudang had made for decades began to change, and it was a change that Shaolin and Wudang did not want to see.

One of these two people is Dongfang Bubai.

Since Dongfang Bubai overthrew the ambitious Ren Woxing, the Sun Moon Sect began to grow on its own, and Dongfang Bubai lived in seclusion on the Black Wood Cliff for more than ten years.

Later, because of Yang Lianting, the Sun Moon Sect began to decline.

The other person is Zuo Lengchan!

Because of the decline of the Sun Moon Sect, the Five Mountains Sword Sect entered a rare period of peaceful development.

Zuo Lengchan, the leader of the Five Mountains, was ambitious and decided to unite all forces to completely destroy the Sun Moon Sect and command the world.

Not only did he want to merge the Five Mountains Sword Sect into one, he also wanted to suppress Shaolin and Wudang and make the Five Mountains Sword Sect the largest sect in the world.

The appearance of Dongfang Bubai and Zuo Lengchan broke the balance created by Shaolin and Wudang for decades.

Due to the decline and retreat of the Sun Moon Sect, the main contradiction in the world is no longer the struggle between good and evil, but has become the contradiction between Shaolin, Wudang and the Five Mountains Sword Sect headed by Zuo Lengchan.

To some extent, Zuo Lengchan is more difficult to deal with than the Sun Moon Sect.

Because to deal with the Sun Moon Sect, they only need to shout the slogan "Down with the Demon Sect" and then order the heroes to "come on".

But there is no excuse to deal with Zuo Lengchan.

In terms of status, Zuo Lengchan is already on par with them; in terms of martial arts, Zuo Lengchan is not inferior to them.

In terms of power, in addition to integrating the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Zuo Lengchan also secretly attracted many left-handed masters.

There is only one thing that Zuo Lengchan cannot compare with them. Zuo Lengchan is lonely. No one supports him for what he wants to do. If he wants to accomplish something, the whole world is his enemy.

But once Zuo Lengchan achieves his goal, his next target will definitely be the two great mountains of Shaolin and Wudang.

Therefore, Shaolin and Wudang will definitely not sit idly by and watch this happen.

How to contain Zuo Lengchan?

Master Fangzheng and Taoist Chongxu set their sights on Ren Woxing, who was imprisoned in Plum Manor, West Lake.

The best way to deal with a person is to create an enemy for him.

Dongfang Bubai is not good enough, so let's change someone!

The former little Ren did a good job, he has ambition, strength and skills, he is the one!

Dongfang Bubai has always claimed that Ren Woxing died of illness due to practicing martial arts, and this statement made everyone believe it, including Xiang Wentian and Ren Yingying.

But why did Xiang Wentian know that Ren Woxing was imprisoned in Plum Manor, West Lake?

This is the masterpiece of Shaolin and Wudang.

Think about the original plot. Linghu Chong met Xiang Wentian as soon as he left Shaolin Temple. It was such a coincidence that Linghu Chong happened to be the main force to rescue Ren Woxing. There was a reason behind this.

But now, because of the appearance of Su Yi, the plan of Shaolin and Wudang has changed again.

Dongfang Bubai, who has not set foot in the martial arts world for twelve years, came down the mountain.

As soon as he came down the mountain, he went straight to Meizhuang, West Lake!

Master Fangzheng was not worried that Dongfang Bubai would learn "Xingxing Dafa". Shaolin and Wudang have never been afraid of this flawed martial arts.

He was worried that Dongfang Bubai would destroy his chess pieces. He was worried that this unexpected change would make the situation develop in a more uncontrollable direction.

He never wanted Ren Woxing to get into trouble.

But if Ren Woxing really got into trouble——

Dongfang Bubai must not die.

Otherwise, who would stop Zuo Lengchan if Dongfang Bubai died?

It was with such complex considerations and thoughts that Master Fangzheng and the masters of the righteous way rushed to Qiantang West Lake overnight.

At the same time, Chongxu also set out from Shaoshi Mountain and headed for Plum Manor in West Lake. He and Fang Zheng would coordinate with each other, one in the open and one in the dark, to control the situation and guide the development of the situation.

Plum Manor in West Lake.

Su Yi was practicing spear under a tree.

White Ape Magic Spear!

He practiced the moves and routines of this spear technique in a rigid manner, from beginning to end, repeatedly and rigidly, without any changes.

Dongfang Bubai sat in a pavilion not far away, playing the piano while paying attention to Su Yi in the field, with a pair of beautiful eyes full of tenderness and love.

It has been more than a month since Ren Woxing died.

In Dongfang Bubai's eyes, in the past month, his brother Lian has gone from a handsome scholar who was powerless to a top master.

This is a world-shaking change. From ancient times to the present, I am afraid that there has never been such a fast training speed in the martial arts world.

In one month, from a novice to a top master!

It is said that seventy years ago, Lin Yuantu used only three months to go from the bottom to the top with his "Evil-Defeating Sword Technique", which was unprecedented.

But now, Brother Lian has shortened this record to one month!

Since Su Yi started practicing martial arts, he has always practiced alone and has never fought against anyone.

He has always practiced the spearmanship routine in a rigid manner. Perhaps in the eyes of masters like Huang Zhonggong and Dan Qingsheng, Su Yi's practice is very rigid. If only the moves are considered, he is still far from becoming a third-rate master.

But in the eyes of Dongfang Bubai, his brother Lian is simply a martial arts genius!

He can see what ordinary people can't see, that is, Su Yi's "stability" and "accuracy".

The moves and routines of Su Yi's spearmanship, the angle, strength and amplitude of each movement, every time they are performed, are exactly the same, as if they were completely copied and pasted!

Su Yi is like a precise machine. Every move he uses is a "standard part" he has made, absolutely accurate, without any flaws.

Such "rigidity" and "no change" are impossible for anyone in the martial arts world!

Dongfang Bubai can't do it either!

He saw Su Yi practicing martial arts like this and tried to learn it, but he found helplessly that every time he performed the same move, there would always be some subtle changes, and it was impossible to be completely consistent.

Why is this so?

He also "asked questions" from Su Yi.

Su Yi's answer to him was: "Swing the gun a thousand times a day, be serious every time, and you will naturally do it."

Dongfang Bubai knew that Su Yi was not perfunctory, because Su Yi had been practicing this set of gun skills in addition to practicing Qinggong these days. He practiced this set of gun skills over and over again, tirelessly and tirelessly. Dongfang Bubai had never seen anyone as diligent as Su Yi.

The most terrifying thing is that Su Yi practiced every move carefully, which is the most valuable.

You must know that if any boring and meaningless actions are repeated for a long time, people will feel numb, and finally become instinctive mechanical reactions.

In this way, repeated practice without thinking and without effort is just for proficiency, which is not very meaningful.

But Su Yi really practiced every time very seriously, not just mechanically and numbly, and not just to complete the task.

This alone made Dongfang Bubai amazed at Su Yi's perseverance and resilience.

Not to mention that Dongfang Bubai also saw the "agility" of Su Yi's every move from Su Yi's dull practice.

This is the "connotation" that only absolute masters can see. Su Yi's moves seem dull and simple, but this is only the surface. Any external stimulation can change this extreme simplicity and dullness immediately.

Su Yi's moves are like a dozing tiger.

When Dongfang Bubai noticed this, he was so shocked that he could not say anything more.

Because this characteristic of being immovable like a mountain and difficult to know like the shadow is clearly a very high level of martial arts!

As a beginner, how could his brother Lian have such a high level?

He could only attribute this to his natural talent!

Although Dongfang Bubai was the best in the world, even he could not figure out the purpose of Su Yi's hard work in practicing the White Ape Spear.

As a master of national martial arts, Su Yi had long reached the state where no flies or insects could land on him, and no feathers could touch him. After experiencing so many life-and-death battles and gathering the strengths of hundreds of schools, his martial arts were no longer limited to moves.

The reason why Su Yi practiced the White Ape Spear over and over again was not because of how exquisite the spear technique was, but to familiarize himself with the use of internal force.

The same moves, with or without the blessing of internal force, can be said to be a world of difference.

Even if there are no moves, just a simple palm-to-palm or weapon-to-weapon collision, the one with internal force can knock the opponent away with a palm, and can knock the opponent's weapon away with a knife.

Although Su Yi is a master, he is an absolute novice in the use of internal force.

He practiced the White Ape Spear over and over again, just to make his internal force more flexible and controllable.

This is a long-term process of practice makes perfect, and there is no room for tricks.

In order to master the use of internal force, Su Yi even sacrificed the time to practice Qinggong.

He suppressed his romantic dream of flying over eaves and walls, and waved the spear boringly again and again.

Because he knew very well that laying a good foundation is the foundation of everything.

Only when he is more proficient in the operation and use of internal force, he will be more effective in practicing other martial arts.

Su Yi waved the spear meticulously, while Dongfang Bubai played the piano leisurely.

The music comes from the heart, and he played a very cheerful song, which shows that he is in a very happy mood.

At a certain moment, Dongfang Bubai suddenly raised his eyebrows, pressed the strings with both hands, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly.

Su Yi stopped practicing spear training almost at the same time as Dongfang Bubai, and looked around vigilantly.

The cicadas around him suddenly stopped chirping.

Cicadas will not stop chirping for no reason, especially the cicadas around them, it is impossible for them to stop chirping at the same time.

This means that someone is approaching the courtyard.

And there are people on all sides!

Huang Zhonggong and others have received Su Yi's instructions. Except for delivering food, they will not approach this courtyard to disturb him and Dongfang Bubai.

Even if they come, they must go through the main gate, and will not lurk in all directions.

So, they must be enemies.

Dongfang Bubai's eyes were slightly cold, and he suddenly jumped up, flew out of the pavilion like a gliding bird, and landed beside Su Yi.

After protecting Su Yi, he looked around and said slowly: "The visitor is a guest, everyone, since you are here, why don't you show up?"
