Chapter 365: Sword of the Past, Sword of the Future!
Chinese Pavilion.

Wuming was feeling uneasy.

A few days ago, Wuming first sensed a powerful sword intent. This sword intent dominated the heaven and earth, and even Wuming's Heavenly Sword realm was shaken. The direction from which the sword intent came was Wushuang City.

Wuming knew that it must be the legendary love of the Martial Saint Guan Yu that had come to life, and he instantly became worried about his beloved disciple Jian Chen.

Wuming couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He should have gone there in person.

What if something happens to Jian Chen and he is hit by Qingcheng Zhilian? What should we do then?
Wuming had high hopes for Jianchen. He was the one who gave him the name Jianchen. He hoped that his disciple's sword skills would be like the morning light, bright but not fierce, gentle but not weak.

The "Chen" in Jianchen's name was also named by Wuming to commemorate his beloved senior brother Chenfeng.

Chen Feng is an upright person with a chivalrous heart and a kind heart, and Wuming regards him as a role model.

However, because Chen Feng had repeatedly obstructed Po Jun from doing evil, Po Jun took advantage of the opportunity of a martial arts competition to brutally kill him.

Killing a fellow sect member should be punishable by death, but Pojun's father Jianhui is the leader of the Sword Sect and he protects Pojun.

The decisive battle between Wuming and Pojun back then was more about revenge for his senior brother Chenfeng than fighting for the return of Wanjian.

Wuming has reached the Heavenly Sword realm in these years, but he has become less and less interested in moving around in the martial arts world.

He didn't know why, but once his cultivation reached the peak, he liked to play the erhu quietly at home and didn't want to go out at all.

Jian Chen is his disciple whom he has high hopes for. Now that even Qingcheng Zhilian has reappeared in the arena, Wuming almost impulsively goes to Wushuang City to find out what is going on.

But he still held back.

For some reason, he just didn't want to go out.

Afterwards, the knife intent disappeared, and a strong sword intent rose into the sky, illuminating the sky and the earth.

As a master of the Heavenly Sword realm, Wuming was the most powerful person in the way of the sword. He instantly recognized that it was a move that was the ultimate sublime form of the Holy Spirit Sword Technique - Sword Twenty-Three!

"I didn't expect that Dugu Jian would actually create Sword Twenty-Three, five years earlier than my best guess."

"Wushuang City, something big must have happened!"

Wuming thought of the many entanglements between himself and Dugu Jian and couldn't help but sigh.

The idea of ​​going to Wushuang City to find out what was going on came to his mind, but in the end he looked at the erhu on the table and started playing it involuntarily.

Several days passed and there was still no news from Jian Chen. Wuming was very upset.

If the mind is not calm, the sound of the piano will be chaotic.

Wuming sighed, and he finally decided to step out of the house and go to Wushuang City to take a look.

But just as he took a step out, there was a noise of noise and destruction coming from Zhonghua Pavilion, and an old friend exclaimed:
"The evil spirit?! You are Po Jun!"

Wuming was shocked and hurried to Zhonghua Pavilion, only to see that it had been smashed and looted.

A red-haired man with a vicious face and an arrogant and domineering look, carrying two swords full of murderous intent, was showing off his power, beating up the guys at Zhonghua Pavilion, and shouting loudly:
"I know Wuming is hiding here, tell him to get out!"

As he said this, the man slapped another waiter with his palm.

Wuming recognized at a glance that this person was Pojun.

After so many years, Pojun's temper hasn't changed at all.

He is so unreasonable and domineering, he is just a beast!

He is known as the influential Sun Xiaoguo.

At that moment, Wuming flashed and blocked Pojun.

boom!
Wuming did not move, and Pojun retreated three steps.

With full health and in the Heavenly Sword state, Wuming is certainly not strong enough to defeat Emperor Shitian, but he can definitely suppress the likes of Pojun and Jue Wushen.

In fact, neither Jue Wushen nor Pojun, although they spoke arrogantly, had the confidence to deal with Wuming with full blood.

They were planning to incorporate conspiracies and tricks into their martial arts so that they would have the confidence to deal with Wuming.

"Wuming, you finally showed up, great!" Pojun looked at Wuming, shocked by his high skill, but showed no fear on his face, "Wuming, I have practiced hard for many years, and now I have already defeated you, continue to fight with me! In the battle with Jianzong back then, you were stopped by my father, but now there is no one to stop us!"

Pojun looked at Wuming with excitement and passion in his eyes.

The relationship between Pojun and Wuming is probably like that between the Joker and Batman in Gotham City.

Wuming is Batman, and Pojun is the Joker.

On the surface, the Joker is against Batman in everything, but in fact, he is Batman's number one fan. He is obsessed with Batman to the point of being a brainless fan. He doesn't even care about Superman and Wonder Woman, and only has eyes for Batman.

The same goes for Pojun. He never really cared about Juewushen or the later Emperor Shitian. The only person in heaven and on earth that he cared about was Wuming.

He is essentially an anonymous fanatic, and all his crazy behaviors are just chasing after stars.

If Pojun were a woman, she would have found a way to marry Wuming long ago. Unfortunately, he is a man, so he can only chase stars like this.

"Pojun, I have retired from the world and don't want to fight with you. Just go away!" Wuming stood with his hands behind his back and said lightly.

Po Jun chuckled and said, "I knew you would say that. Don't you want to take a peek at our Sword Sect's supreme secret book, Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect? The ownership of Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect has not yet been determined!"

The Sword Sect is an unknown sect in today's martial arts world, but in fact, the origins of the Sword Sect are quite extraordinary.

The Sword Sect, as its name suggests, is the origin of all sword techniques in the world. It was founded by the great swordsman of the past. All sword techniques in the world come from the Sword Sect.

Only after three lifetimes of Sword Saint was able to develop a sword path that was different from that of Sword Sect.

The Sword Sect’s “Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect” is the Sword Sect’s highest scripture and the highest realm of the sword.

When Wuming and Pojun fought, the stakes were all about the return of all swords.

Upon hearing that all the swords had returned to their origin, Wuming, who was at the Heavenly Sword realm, was slightly moved.

But he changed his mind and thought, he defeated the Sword Master and slaughtered the martial arts world, but in the end his wife died tragically and he was destined to be a lonely star. What was the point of pursuing these things?

Be Buddhist, give up, and lie down!
So Wuming said: "Ten thousand swords return to the sect, let it continue to stay in the Sword Sect!"

"Life is so boring, Wuming. You have no fighting spirit at all! That's just how you are. I saw you were amazing when I was a child, but you have no fighting spirit at all. You are really wasting your talent and talent!" Pojun snorted coldly, "But I already have a way to rekindle your fighting spirit. Do you know how your wife Jieyu died? That's right, I poisoned her to death!"

"What? Really?!" Wuming looked at Pojun, shocked and angry when he thought of his wife's death.

Wuming's wife Jieyu is also related to Pojun.

Back then, it was Pojun who pursued Jieyu first, but Jieyu didn't like Pojun. Since Pojun couldn't get her, he decided to force her.

Then, Wuming stopped Pojun in time and saved Jieyu. Jieyu was moved by Wuming's heroic rescue and married him.

Unexpectedly, Pojun refused to give in and poisoned Jieyu to death.

"Very good, I sensed your fighting spirit!" Po Jun said, "I have done many bad things, but there is one good thing, that is, I did it, that is, I did it. If it wasn't me, I would not admit it! Back then, I fought with you, although it seemed to be a draw, in fact, I was defeated miserably. I was so angry that I poisoned that bitch Jie Yu to death!"

"Po Jun!" Wuming said, "I will do as you wish! I will avenge Xiaoyu and Senior Brother Chenfeng!"

"Your fighting spirit is getting stronger and stronger. This is you! Let's go to the Sword Sect. There is an old guy waiting for us there!" Po Jun said, "The unfinished battle of that year can now be continued!"

The former site of the Sword Sect.

The Sword Sect, which was once packed with people, is now a desolate place. An old man hiding in it suddenly laughed out loud:

"Wuming, Pojun, you are finally here!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, come and duel. Whoever wins, I will give him the secret book of Wanjian Guizong!"

This person is the only remaining senior master in the Sword Sect, the Sword Emperor.

The Sword Emperor was originally a member of the royal family. He became a disciple of the Sword Sect to learn martial arts, but was imprisoned because he secretly read the secret manual of Wanjian Guizong.

Later, the leader of the Sword Sect at that time lamented that no one in the Sword Sect had the comprehension to learn Wanjian Guizong, so he gave the secret book of Wanjian Guizong to the Sword Emperor, saying that as long as there was someone who was qualified to learn Wanjian Guizong, the Sword Emperor would give the secret book to that person, and the person would be able to see the light of day again and gain his freedom.

It's just a promise.

The Sword Emperor could just look through the secret book of Wanjian Guizong, or leave on his own.

However, the Sword Emperor kept his promise and did not peek at the secret book. He was really waiting for the younger generation of the Sword Sect to obtain the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect.

That year, Wuming won with one move, and the Sword Emperor thought that his mission was accomplished and wanted to hand over Wanjian Guizong to Wuming.

However, the head of the sect Jian Hui threw the jade ring that Wuming carried with him when he was born. This was Wuming's gift to become a disciple, representing the master-disciple relationship between Wuming and Jian Hui.

If Wuming breaks the jade ring and insists on killing Pojun, that would destroy the relationship between master and disciple.

Wuming was caught in a dilemma and was slow to draw his sword, while Jianhui did not want the news of his son's failure in Pojun to leak out, so he used the Huitian Bing Jue to freeze himself and all the masters present, such as Dugu Yifang.

This duel had to end.

The Sword Emperor blamed Wuming for not taking the victory that was within his grasp, but he could do nothing but continue to wait in the Sword Sect.

Over the years, Wuming has been living in seclusion after his wife's death.

After Pojun poisoned Wuming's wife, he abducted Nie Renwang's wife Yan Ying and turned Nie Renwang into the Green King.

He arrived in Japan, and in order to have a chance to defeat Wuming, he exchanged Yan Ying with Jue Wushen for Sha Po Lang's martial arts.

He cheats on others, but he is also strict with himself. He can only be described as a genius.

Now, Wushen Juegong has invaded the Central Plains on a large scale, and Pojun has cooperated with Wushen Juegong to deal with Wuming together.

During these years, the Sword Emperor also met a girl who was very intelligent and kind, so the Sword Emperor accepted her as his disciple.

The girl's name was Di'er Meng, and her father was once a famous swordsman, the Second Sword King.

At this moment, the three of them gathered at the ruins of the Sword Sect.

The Sword Emperor was very happy to see Wuming and Pojun, and said, "I have known for a long time that there will be a battle between you two in your destiny. Let's start quickly. I have been like a gravekeeper in the Sword Sect for these years, and I am tired of it. The world is so big, I want to see it." "Shut up, old man. I will let you hand over the secret book of Wanjian Guizong to me in person later!" Pojun said, and took the lead to come to the hall where the competition took place that year.

This hall has now turned into an ice cellar.

In the hall, there was a jade ring frozen in ice, and there were Jian Hui, Dugu Yifang and others.

Po Jun looked at Jian Hui in the ice and said, "You have always hoped that I would be stronger than Wu Ming, but I have never been able to do so. But today, I will defeat Wu Ming in front of you and satisfy you!"

Then, Pojun turned around and shouted, "Wuming, start!"

With this shout, the two of them instantly returned to their previous positions, and the frozen jade ring was also unfrozen.

Yuhuan continued to fly towards Wuming, exactly the same as it did that year.

But this time, Wuming broke the long sword in his hand, and the sword shattered into tiny silver needles. The silver needles passed through the jade ring, forming sword energy, and went straight towards Pojun.

This was exactly what Wuming had thought of after much thought, a method that would not break the jade ring but would defeat Pojun. If Wuming had had that trick back then, he would have won.

Wuming took the jade ring. Yuhuan was safe and sound, but his mind was filled with thoughts.

He was still struggling over whether to kill Pojun or not.

Jian Hui's face was lifelike, and it was difficult for him to give up this master-disciple friendship.

Jianhui is protective and selfish, but he really admires Wuming. He teaches Wuming martial arts and does his best to help him.

At that time, Jianhui also knew that what she did out of love for her son was not right, so she froze herself and committed suicide to atone for her sin.

With Wuming's current level of Heavenly Sword, if he opens fire at full power, Pojun will be killed by Wuming within thirty moves.

However, Wuming did not use his full strength due to various awkward psychological reasons.

"Well done!" Pojun drew out his Tanlang Sword and Tianren Knife and easily defeated Wuming's move.

Many years have passed, and Pojun's skills are no longer what they used to be. The moves that could defeat Pojun back then are now ineffective against him.

The two men fought each other repeatedly.

Wuming was concerned about the relationship between him and Jianhui as master and disciple, so he still showed mercy. However, for some reason, Pojun always saw through his inexplicable swordsmanship.

For a while, the two were in a stalemate.

“Wuming, even though I knew your swordsmanship in advance, I still couldn’t beat you. You are indeed amazing and worthy of being my opponent!” Pojun roared, “But I have studied Sha Po Lang painstakingly over the years. Now, I will let you see the true power of Sha Po Lang!”

After saying that, Po Jun changed his tactics and used the Sha Po Lang technique he learned from Jue Wushen.

But Jue Wushen himself is no match for Wuming, so how could the Sha Po Lang skill taught by Jue Wushen possibly deal with Wuming?

With just three moves and two styles, Wuming turned the situation around and gained the upper hand.

Pojun felt that he could still fight Wuming without Sha Po Lang, but as soon as he used Sha Po Lang, he would lose.

It seems that in a head-on confrontation, I am far from being Wuming's opponent.

Just when the Sword Emperor was about to give the secret book of Wanjian Guizong to Wuming, Pojun suddenly sneered, and the sword energy enveloped Wuming. Wuming defended one by one, but found that they were all false moves. Pojun's real target was the jade ring in Wuming's hand.

Ding!
The jade ring was broken.

Wuming was startled and suddenly felt weak all over.

Unexpectedly, a strange fragrance emanated from the jade ring, and when Wuming smelled this fragrance, his power suddenly began to decline.

"Did you poison it?" Wuming asked.

"That's right! Hua Yuman beside you betrayed you. He was the one who revealed your moves to me. I didn't expect that even after knowing your moves, I still couldn't beat you!" Po Jun said, "You were poisoned by him, of course!"

"Impossible!" Wuming said.

"Of course I know that if I ask Hua Yunan to poison you directly, it won't work. The only person who can do it is your beloved disciple Jian Chen. Unfortunately, I don't know where Jian Chen went, and I couldn't find him." Po Jun said, "So, of course your food is non-toxic, it's just some ordinary seasonings to make you eat more delicious. But I tampered with this jade ring. The smell of the medicinal powder inside is the medicine. Once you smell it, it will work together with the medicine in your body. This is the strange poison Xue Jue that is effective even for peerless masters!"

"You are mean!"

"It's not that I'm mean, it's that you're soft-hearted and gave me a chance!"

Seeing Wuming's power was greatly damaged, Pojun was overjoyed, and the power of Sha Po Lang was truly revealed.

Sha Po Lang can only deliver a critical hit when hitting a target with low health.

After a few moves, the Xue Jue attack became more severe, Wuming turned pale, and was captured by Po Jun.

If Pojun really hated Wuming, he would have the opportunity to kill Wuming at this time, but he was just a fan of Wuming after all, and only felt great joy at defeating Wuming.

"Who won?" Po Jun asked Jian Huang.

Po Jun's method was certainly dishonorable, but the Sword Emperor didn't bother to care and said, "You win, I'm free! Free!"

After saying that, the Sword Emperor handed the secret book of Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Origin to Po Jun and left.

"A bird in a cage flies high, freedom is precious!" The voice of the Sword Emperor came from afar, "The world is so big, I want to spread my wings and fly!"

After escaping from the predicament with one move, the Sword Emperor also became unrestrained.

Po Jun was about to open the Wan Jian Gui Zong when a voice suddenly said, "Po Jun, have you forgotten the agreement with our Wu Shen Jue Palace?"

Pojun did not dare to look at Wanjian Guizong.

At this moment, a man dressed as a Japanese, accompanied by several ghost warriors, appeared in front of Pojun.

It was Juexin, the eldest son of Jue Wushen.

Juexin, the famous immortal cockroach in Fengyun, was a man who was not killed even after consuming twenty-three attacks of the Heaven-Destroying and Earth-Destroying Swords.

"Hand over Wanjian Guizong, and Wuming must also be handed over to our Wushen Jue Palace. This is the agreement!" Juexin was very tough.

Juexin doesn't like Pojun. If Pojun hadn't sent Yan Ying to Jue Wushen, he wouldn't have a younger brother who constantly competes with him for resources, and he wouldn't lose the favor of his father Jue Wushen.

Damn Po Jun, he loved being cuckolded so much that he took Yan Ying to sell her in a brothel, but it caused him to lose his father's love.

"Here you go!" Pojun was afraid of Jue Wushen after all, so he could only hand over the secret book of Wanjian Guizong.

Juexin was overjoyed and reached out to take the secret book.

Juexin had long harbored the intention of rebelling against his rebellious father Jue Wushen, and had even secretly defected to the old Emperor of Japan. However, he wanted to master the power of playing chess and become a chess player rather than a pawn of Jue Wushen or the old Emperor.

However, suddenly a repulsive force pushed Juexin away.

But then the secret book flew out of the ice cellar as if it had wings.

Then, a voice said, "Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Origin is the divine skill of our Chinese people. You little bastards from Japan, do you also want to take a peek?"

Wuming, Pojun and Juexin were all shocked.

Then, they saw a handsome man in a black robe, walking towards them with the gait of a tiger and a dragon, holding the secret book of Wanjian Guizong in his hand.

Obviously, this person has absorbed the Ten Thousand Swords Return to their Origin. Even Pojun was unable to react to his mid-air capture, which shows how extraordinary he is.

Everyone stared and looked closely, and this man was so heroic and handsome, he was truly a man of heaven and earth, with the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix.

The aura of this man is so strong that he seems like the overlord of the martial arts world. Compared with him, Wuming seems lonely.

But they do not have as much kingly bearing as him, as if they were above all things and detached.

"You look extraordinary, I wonder who you are?" Juexin felt that the person was no ordinary person and asked cautiously.

"Murong Fu!" The person who came was Murong Fu.

As Murong Fu introduced himself, Nie Feng and others also arrived one after another.

"Master, are you okay?" Jian Chen looked at the injured Wuming and hurried forward to show concern for his master.

Even after becoming the male god of the ruined temple and abandoning himself, Jian Chen still felt guilty when facing Wuming. What's more, Jian Chen hasn't become the male god of the ruined temple yet.

"Murong Fu, the overlord of the Central Plains martial arts world who replaced Xiongba and defeated Dugu Yifang and Sword Saint? Aren't you in Wushuang City? You..." Juexin was very afraid.

Pojun also looked at Murong Fu, and felt the pressure from Murong Fu's casual look, which made his whole body tremble.

"Dad is really here!"

"father!"

At this moment, Dugu Ming and Dugu Meng also spotted the old popsicle Dugu Yifang in the ice cellar at a glance.

Looking at the frozen Dugu Yifang, both of them felt sad and felt sorry for their father.

I really didn't deserve to offend anyone. I came to the Sword Sect to watch the competition and was kind enough to help support the pillar, but ended up being turned into a popsicle.

Taking a closer look, Dugu Yifang's eyes were wide open, and it was obvious that he died with his eyes open.

After all, being beaten to death by Xiongba is also the way for a great hero to die.

But dying in the Sword Sect for such a nonsensical reason is really shameful.

When he thought about how the fake Dugu Yifang used his appearance to please him, slept with his wife, spent his money, and beat his children, Dugu Yifang became even more resentful.

It's right to die with your eyes open.

"Wuming, I have already comprehended the highest realm of the Holy Spirit Sword Technique. Sword Twenty-Three, I came here this time to fight you! I didn't expect that you were poisoned!" The Sword Saint looked at Wuming and said regretfully, "What a pity!"

"Nothing to regret!" Murong Fu said with a smile, "The Wanjian Guizong in my hand can help Wuming! Sword Twenty-Three is the sword of the future, and Wanjian Guizong is the sword of the past! Sword Twenty-Three is to bet hope on the future, and power comes from the future! Wanjian Guizong is the sword that will bring all the swordsmanship in the world back to the great swordsman, and return to the essence of swordsmanship! The competition between these two swordsmanship will definitely be very interesting!"

After that, Murong Fu looked at Juexin and said, "Juexin, you are the son of Jue Wushen. Your father has always been eyeing our Shenzhou land, and now he can no longer bear it. Unfortunately, your father miscalculated. Shenzhou without Xiongba will be his nightmare! The countdown to the destruction of your Dongying has also begun!"
