Chapter 110: The Martial Saint

  In the land of Baiyue, those who can enjoy such glory are few and far between.

  Naturally, this made the 120 martial arts students who had passed the selection feel extremely excited. Early in the morning, after receiving the notification, all the martial arts students gathered at the designated location, waiting to depart.

  One hundred and twenty martial arts children finished counting, under the leadership of the great Zun, set off towards Wu Sheng Mountain. The martial arts children brought a pilgrim-like mentality along the way, finally arriving at the foot of Wu Sheng Mountain. Wu Sheng Mountain, majestic and magnificent, as if it has been standing here since ancient times.

  "Remember this, here is Wu Sheng Mountain, it's different from any place in the secular world. Those arrogant airs you young masters have in your daily lives must all be put away here."

  "Especially remember, when I don't let you move freely, you absolutely cannot wander around randomly. Otherwise, if something happens, the True Martial Sacred Land will not take responsibility for it at all. Did you hear clearly?"

  "Listen carefully, no need to explain, these Wu Tong are too clear, what does Wusheng Mountain mean?"

  "Alright, let's go!"

  The Grand Master rode a horse under him, taking this group of martial arts children to walk on the mountain road.

  The mountain path is steep and rugged. If it weren't for these martial arts practitioners having undergone rigorous training, they probably wouldn't have been able to climb the nearly vertical mountain path close to the ground.

  On both sides of the mountain path were steep cliffs. The depths of the cliffs were shrouded in mist, and it was impossible to see the bottom. All that could be heard was the howling of the mountain wind, which made these young martial artists extremely cautious, not daring to be distracted, let alone wander around randomly.

  It's not easy to finish these mountain roads, and the road conditions are just a little better.

  In the middle of a mountain, a deep canyon is sandwiched between two peaks, winding its way through. Arriving at a dense forest.

  "Everyone, raise your heads and look up at the great one pointing upwards, 'Do you see that tall palace in front of us?'"

  "By passing through this forest, you will reach the entrance of the Wu Sheng Temple," said the venerable one patiently. "However, this forest is not an ordinary one. It contains array formations. Don't worry, the large array formation has not been activated, only some basic small array formations have been started. As long as you are willing to use your brains and have sufficient spiritual energy, you can basically pass through. If you cannot pass through or fail to do so within the specified time, then you will lose the qualification to be received by Wu Sheng." Did you hear that?

  "I heard it!" The eyes of the Wu Tong were full of eager and impatient meaning.

  The great one nodded: "Good, let's go!"

  A group of martial arts practitioners rushed in, but Qin Wusong was not in a hurry. Based on his visual estimation, this place is at least dozens of miles away from the Martial Sacred Hall. This forest must be extremely vast, and there's no need to rush for the time being.

  He wanted to observe from the periphery first.

  The great master saw all the martial arts children enter, but Qin Wushuang alone remained outside.

  "Why don't you go in?"

  "The superior one asks first, as it is said that sharpening the knife does not mistake the chopping of firewood. The junior observes first, and with a sharp knife, the work is halved."

  The great one was stunned again, and a look of appreciation flowed from his eyes. The champion is indeed the champion, and it's not just an empty reputation. This child has such meticulous thoughts at such a young age, with a master-like demeanor. Winning the trial championship wasn't just luck.

  "Not disturbing you now either, nodded: "Good, then I won't disturb you."

  After finishing speaking, he laughed and suddenly jumped into the nearby forest.

  Qin Wushuang would not be bored enough to follow the Great Zun, he also knew that the current strength of the Great Zun was still one step ahead of him. Moreover, this is his territory, and it's too easy to get rid of his tailing. And following the Great Zun also means disrespect to his seniors, Qin Wushuang has always been respectful to those who are morally and talented in their martial arts practice.

  This great person is highly respected and has also greatly supported him, Qin Wushuang is naturally grateful and will not offend the great person.

  Climbed to the tall trees on both sides, looked into the distance. But saw a dense and lush expanse, a vast sea of forest, couldn't see where this forest stretched to at all.

  And these trees are extremely tall and large, with arms around them that cannot be wrapped around.

  "It seems that from the outside, nothing extraordinary can be seen." Qin Wushuang thought, and also followed into the forest.

  As they walked into the forest, after a while, Qin Wusuo discovered the wonder of this forest. It seemed that no matter how you walked, the scenes you saw were almost the same. The sense of confusion was very strong, and it seemed that no matter how you walked, you were just pacing in place.

  Fortunately, Qin Wusong's powers of observation were extremely keen, and every time he arrived at a new location, he could still see that these large trees were only similar in appearance, but not the same scene repeating itself, rather they were intentionally arranged to resemble the same place, in order to confuse people who entered this forest.

  Qin Wushuang made several marks along the way, so as not to walk on repeated roads.

  "No, how did I end up back at the landmark again? Qin Wushuang walked in a circle and surprisingly found himself back where he started."

  "It seems that the formation in this forest is indeed very confusing. It can actually make people turn around in circles. Qin Wushuang was on high alert."

  This time, he was even more careful and didn't take a step without paying attention to every blade of grass and tree around him, not letting go of even a single footprint.

  But

  What he didn't expect was that he was so careful, yet once again returned to that familiar place.

  Qin Wushuang was slightly surprised. In his previous life, he had also seen some ancient formations, but most of them were just living formations, using people to form military formations.

  It is rare to see such an array laid out with trees.

  But it's not that I don't understand at all. Qin Wushuang remembered that when encountering such a technique, the best way to break through was to observe the opponent's movements carefully.

  But in the dense forest, how can we determine the direction?

  There is a way to determine direction based on sunlight.

  Qin Wusuo gazed at the sunlight that pierced through the dense thicket of trees, lost in thought.

  His gaze suddenly stopped at the northwest position. After a moment, he thought to himself: "This formation is not everywhere with formation eyes. This place has been making me lose my way constantly, it should be one of the formation eyes in the formation. To get out of this formation, I must deduce from the direction."

  Qin Wushuang stepped in the northwest direction, this time he didn't even bother to pay attention to anything. He just followed the path ahead, and didn't need to worry about getting lost.

  "Sure enough, walking from the northwest direction for so long and still not returning to the original place. It seems that I have walked in the right direction." Qin Wushuang pondered, this formation seemed to be secretly compatible with the eight gates of Qimen Dunjia from his previous life.

  Eight Trigrams Gate, including Resting Gate, Life Gate, Injury Gate, Blocking Gate, View Gate, Death Gate, Shock Gate, Opening Gate.

  Among them, Kai Men, Shou Men and Sheng Men are the three auspicious doors.

  If you master the Qimen Dunjia technique, then to get out of this forest, as long as you walk in the right direction of the three major auspicious gates, it should be no problem to get out of the forest.

  After all, the great master said that this formation has not been fully activated. Only some small formations are working. Qin Wushuang pondered the meaning of these words, which must be that those dead ends were definitely not open. But if they went wrong, they would definitely not be able to get out, but there would be no danger to their lives.

  But if you walk out of the birth gate, it will be easy to walk out of the dense forest.

  With this in mind, Qin Wushuang marched even more firmly towards the northwest corner.

  According to the records of Bagua Tungchia, the opening is located in the northwest Qian Palace and belongs to the metal element. In the direction of northwest, it must be the side of the opening.

  Qian Gua is the first of the eight trigrams. In ancient times, people named the door corresponding to Qian Palace as the opening door, metaphorically meaning the beginning of all things, and it was a auspicious and beneficial door for husbands.

  Therefore many monarchs in ancient times liked to establish their capitals in northwest Chang'an, starting from the northwest to create undertakings, which coincides with this principle.

  That Wu Sheng Temple, as the temple of Wu Sheng, if it also implies this point, then it is also a mysterious and inevitable fate, regardless of past or present lives, the principle is always the same.

  At this point, Qin Wushuang suddenly had a movement in his heart and suddenly remembered the "Dao" mentioned by the Great Zun. The Dao is inexplicable, it seems very difficult to explain what it specifically refers to.

  But in subtle ways, it seems that "Tao" is everywhere.

  For example, this dense forest also implies a certain inexplicable "way".

  As expected, Qin Wushuang's judgment soon took effect. Heading northwest, they indeed traveled smoothly without any obstructions, and before long, they arrived at the edge of the forest.

  Just as he was about to leave, Qin Wushuang suddenly stopped in his tracks. For a moment, he felt an extremely strange sensation. This feeling was as if the entire person had been extracted from the original world and suddenly thrown into another small world.

  Qin Wushuang's body was surrounded by trees and green grass, which seemed to have been suddenly imbued with life, thriving and flourishing, giving people a sense of infinite vitality.

  This subtle feeling only lasted for a moment. Suddenly, Qin Wushuang's mind "buzzed" with a warning from the depths of his heart, pulling him back to reality.

  Looking around again, I found myself back in the original world. And where I was, it was just on the edge of the forest.

  "What's going on?" Qin Wushuang was quite perplexed. He could confirm that the scene just now was not an illusion, nor a dream, but a subtle feeling of being there in person. However, how did everything seem to disappear like a mirage in the blink of an eye?

  Just as he was hesitating, he found that at some point a green figure had appeared under a tree not far in front of him.

  That person was tall and slender, with only a back view, his skeleton was clear and gave people a sense of isolation and superiority. What's more wonderful is that when he stood under the tree, it almost made people feel no discord or abruptness, as if he should have been standing there all along, as if he himself was a part of the scenery.

  And where he stood was like a carefree and natural landscape painting, harmonious and natural.

  Martial Saint?

  Qin Wushuang's mind suddenly flashed with this idea, and her eyes gazed into the distance in a daze.

  The man in the green robe slowly turned around, gazing at Qin Wushuang, and suddenly smiled: "You are the first martial child to come to this place. Tell me, what's your name?" Qin Wushuang didn't dare to be slow: "Junior Qin Wushuang, greetings to the Martial Saint!"

  That man in green robe twirled his mustache and smiled: "Qin Wushuang, indeed Qin Wushuang. Unparalleled in the country, not bad not bad, follow me!"

  After finishing speaking, he walked out of the forest with big strides.

  Qin Wushuang didn't hesitate at all and followed him up.

  Hehe, just made a mistake earlier. That chapter was originally scheduled to be updated at the point, but due to operational error, it was updated ahead of time. So the update behind the chapter said that it would be updated in an hour, which is actually a mistake. Originally, it was supposed to say "update the third chapter at 9 o'clock and update the fourth chapter at 10 o'clock". Hmm, this is my fault, so please despise me. Hehe, let's take a small pleasure, today Xinghe also has its first alliance leader appear.
