C195

When he heard the tune, he suddenly felt as if his inner breathing had been thrown out of control. He thought it was played by Gao Jianli, so he couldn't help but shout out, "Brother Gao, what kind of tune are you talking about? It makes people panic."

However, when he turned his head to look, he saw that Gao Jianli was already sweating profusely, as if he himself had been attacked by the tune. It was only now that he realized that the tune was not from Gao Jianli, but the strange tune that had been playing at the top of Oak Sun City that day. "Aiyo! This wailing is so loud that it sounds like a song that's about to end. Everyone quickly seal off your acupoints, don't listen to this wacky tune!"

When everyone heard this shout, they all clicked on their own hearing points. Instantly, they could no longer hear the sounds coming from the outside and only felt a slight vibration in their chest. Then, they all sat down to meditate, meditating and adjusting their Qi.

Gao Jianli knew that he had to play "High Mountain Flowing Water" in eight different tones, so he used his right hand's fingers to play, pick, tick, pick, hit, pick, lift, support. This was his right hand's eight techniques, so he instantly released the prelude to a song of "High Mountain Flowing Water". Hearing the rhythm outlined by the finger technique, Shi Liang was overjoyed. This was because the melody and the technique that he had played was a rhythm that he had never heard of before. He had spent a lot of time and effort waiting for this person's melody.

Even though he had heard the prelude, he was far from satisfied. He was anxious to know what the next beat would be, so he began to play the Twelve Laws of the Clear Horn again and again, faster and faster than he had ever played in Oak City that day. Shi Wuyuan was a court musician of Wei Kingdom, he had already mastered the five notes and twelve rhymes. When he heard Gao Jianli's right hand play, he was greatly amazed, so he answered with the rhythms composed by the Yellow Bell, Taichi, Pharaoh, Rumbine, Abandonment, and Six Suns without Shooting.

He felt that his rhythm was being suppressed by his opponent, and beads of sweat began to roll down his forehead one after another. Thus, he resorted to the eight techniques of his left hand, which were the Up, Down, Recover, Recall, Recall, Roar, Clench, and Kneel.

The more he listened to Gao Jianli's music, the more excited he became, and the more excited he became. He could no longer be bothered with any taboos, all he did was to unveil the Six Yin Rules of Da Lu, Ya Zhong, Zhong Lu, Lin Zhong, Nan Lu and Ying Zhong, and mix them with the Six Yang Rules.

Even though Gao Jianli had previously thought that Gao Jianshui was an extremely elegant tune that could suppress the hostility in his opponent's melody, Shi Kuang's control over "Clear Horn" had, after all, reached the point of becoming a fiendish demon. Therefore, the powerful internal energy contained in the melody was something Gao Jianli couldn't match. The powerful inner breath of < Clear Horn > continued to corrode Gao Jianli's body, causing him to exude a green Qi. His fingers, which were constantly strumming the zither, also began to tremble, but the tune had not ended, so he could only resist the incessant surging of his vital energy and blood as he continued to play.

Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Violent winds raged. Dark clouds covered the sky, and sand and rocks flew everywhere. Many of the soldiers could no longer resist the corrosive effect that these two powerful sound waves had on the minds of people. Some of them had their hands wrapped around their heads, while their heads seemed to be about to split open. Unable to bear it any longer, they directly smashed into the rocks or trees beside them, so that they could no longer feel any Qi in the world.

Suddenly, the melodious sound of a flute came from all directions, and like a clear spring, it flowed into these two twisting streams. In an instant, a white light shot up into the sky, and in the midst of the white light appeared two towering mountains. The two mountains remained unmoving, and were completely silent, while the stream of black Qi that Shi Chang had created was like a black dragon that was baring its fangs as it charged towards the mountain. The black dragon was made up of numerous evil auras, and after it collided with the mountain, wails and moans were continuously emitted. The black dragon also gradually turned into groups of evil auras that scattered in all directions, and were actually all blocked by the mountain and dissipated in the white light.

For a moment, the entire place was completely silent, only the sound of the flowing water and the slight rustling of the wind lingered in everyone's ears. The people who were originally disturbed by the zither music only felt a refreshing and mellow breath enter their ears and circulate through their meridians, causing their bodies to become tranquil. Even Jing Ke and Wu Wang, who were originally competing with their inner strength on the side, were actually able to gradually slow down and return to their bodies along with the rhythm of the flowing water. Until the last four palms of the two clashed, there was no longer any inner energy left in their palms.

"Mountain and water?" Shi Liang stopped moving his fingers. His face showed shock, but it was mostly joy. He could not help but mutter to himself.

Yes, this is indeed the" High Mountain and River "created by Boya and his son. The people in the Sword Arts Alliance have all seen the strange scene when this melody was played in the Heaven Origin Holy Pool, so they weren't surprised by its mysteriousness. They were only surprised by the people who came to help. Although Gao Jianli had always played this tune with the zither music, only the zither music lingered in the air, not fully demonstrating the hidden might of this song. At this moment, someone else was helping from the side. With the flute's clear alcohol and the elegant music from the zither, the mysterious power contained within this unparalleled divine song was activated.

This person had a delicate and pretty appearance. He was surrounded by several women in white dresses at any time. He was the person who fought against Gao Jianli in the Heavenly Sacred Pond, the Music Sect's Sect Leader, Le Shadow.

"Brother Le Shadow!" When Gao Jianli stopped the zither string in his hand and saw the shadow of the jade flute slowly putting it down from his mouth, he could not help but shout out in surprise. According to the customs of the martial arts world, he had originally wanted to be the Sect Master, but the two of them had long ago become close friends, so now, Gao Jianli could not help but call him brother.

Le Ying nodded at him to show his respect before bowing towards the nearby Shi Wu. He called out very humbly, "Grand Preceptor's uncle, this junior dared to disturb your zither music. I apologize to you."

Not far away, when Shi Liang heard Le Shadow's words, he could not help but be startled. He did not know why someone suddenly gave him this title. He then asked in surprise, "Who are you?"

Although the two of them were together for several meters, their voice transmission did not diminish in the slightest. Everyone could hear them clearly and couldn't help but admire the two of them for their deep inner breathing.

"This junior is Le Ying, the unfilial descendant of the Le Clan. He's the third generation successor of Grand Preceptor Lu. Today, we'll meet the Grand Preceptor's uncle and pay our respects to him." Le Ying did not dare to be rude. Every time he answered Shi Kuang's question, he would always half-bend over, clasping a jade flute in both hands and humbly clasping his fists.

When the crowd saw Le Ying act so respectfully towards the old man and call him "Grand Preceptor's uncle", they couldn't help but be astonished. They didn't expect that Le Shadow would appear at this moment, neither did they expect that < High Mountains and Running Water > would appear at this moment, nor did they expect that this withered and blind old man was also an elder of the Le Clan. Even Le Shadow, the successor of the Soul Suppressing Nine Song, would be so respectful to him.

"So he is senior apprentice-brother's successor. Hehe, no wonder he has such accomplishments." Senior Brother, you have the ability to comprehend the profound meaning of the high mountain and flowing water. You have wasted your entire life, yet you are still inferior to him. " At this point, Shi Kuang's tone was actually a little desolate and filled with vicissitudes of life.

Le Ying shook his head slightly. "Grand Preceptor's uncle, you misunderstood. This song was not comprehended by Grand Preceptor, but was obtained by chance when disciple's Nine Soul-Suppressing Melody and this Big Brother Gao Jianli's Ethereal Eight Melodies melody intersected."

"Oh? I said it was no wonder, that I, Shi Kuang, had spent my entire life to comprehend this song, even if I had to blind myself, I would not hesitate to do so. What ability does he have to be able to understand this Divine Comedy before me? So it turns out that Zhong Zizheng and Yu Boya had long hid the profound meaning of this song in Qin Xiao, waiting for future generations to discover it. Hahaha, this is heaven's will, heaven's will! " Upon learning that < < High Mountains and Running Water > > was inspired by two of his descendants who had the ability of the Ethereal Eight Melodies and the Soul Suppressing Nine Melodies, Shi Liang could not help but bitterly smile towards the sky as he thought about how he had spent all his life asking for this song, but in the end, he could not even compare to these two juniors.

He said with some regret, "Actually, Grand Master has been regretting that he had a grudge with you over the name of the number one musician of the Acropolis Kingdom. He has always told his junior that his talent was originally inferior to yours, and that the name of Acropolis Nation's number one musician should belong to Grand Master yourself."

"Is he that kind?" Then why didn't he come to see me and personally say those words to me? " Hearing Le Shadow's words, Shi Liang asked coldly. It was obvious that he was still resentful about the events that had transpired that year.

"Grand Master, he ?" When Le Ying said this, he paused for a moment. It was clear that he was somewhat sad. In the end, he still said it out loud, "He had already started his immortal excursions many years ago."

"What?!" Senior Brother is dead?! " Upon hearing Le Ying's answer, Shi Liang's originally withered face suddenly tensed up, showing some shock and suspicion. However, from Le Ying's sincere words, he could tell that this disciple was not lying to him. He only felt that the resentment towards Shi Xun instantly vanished with the news of his death.

At this moment, his lips moved slightly. Although he was blind, he could still see the scene of when he was with Shi Xu at the court of Wei Kingdom, working as a musician and studying art together. At that time, the Acropolis Kingdom's court musicians had a few hundred disciples under Gao Yang's tutelage. Among the disciples, the ones they favored the most were Shi Chang and Shi Xu, who at first respected each other and sparred with their zither skills. The two of them had an extremely high aptitude for music. Gao Yang originally wanted to pass on his most prized skill to one of them, but it was difficult to decide who to pass it on to.

On the 50th birthday of the Acropolis King, with the celebration of a hundred officials and the flattery of a group of imperial concubines, the court musicians were even playing the zither and displaying their unique skills to cheer the Acropolis King. Gao Yang wanted to probe the two brothers, so he recommended each of them to the Acropolis King. The Acropolis King, on the occasion of the birthday celebration, allowed them to play a song to boost everyone's interest. How could they have known that the two of them were playing Gao Yang's triumphant song, "Clear Horn"? Originally, according to their understanding of the music, Shi Liang was superior to Shi Xueman, but in order to obtain their master's unique skill, they had actually cheated him on his zither, using one of the strings of the zither. He used his sharp blade to scratch the string of the zither, because he knew that one part of the song, Clear Horn, had a very high pitch. Under the speed of playing, the damaged string would definitely not be able to withstand such a high frequency.

Sure enough, in the Great Hall of the Acropolis King, Shi Kuang wanted to show off his superior zither skills, so he deliberately played a tune that was similar to his own. But he suddenly didn't know that his Senior Brother had secretly tampered with his seven-string zither, causing it to break at the most crucial moment, and the tune immediately became disorderly and ear-piercing, causing a commotion among the people in the Great Hall. The Acropolis King became even angrier. Originally, he wanted to severely punish Shi Kuang, but luckily Gao Yang had to plead for Shi Kuang in order to save him from punishment. However, the price was that Shi Kuang was expelled from the ranks of the court musicians. As for Shi Xueman, because of her exquisite zither skills, she was recognized as the successor of the court's great musicians, and after receiving Gao Yang's true teachings, she was called the number one musician by the people of Wei Kingdom.

At first, Shi Kuang thought that he had failed miserably due to his lack of skill, so he destroyed his own eyes and vowed to practice the unique technique of the drum organ to wash away his shame and create his own musical score, "Yang Chunxue". However, it was only when they heard that the music disciples were whispering to each other that they started saying that Shi Lu felt guilty about it and accidentally revealed the whole story of the competition in front of the Palace in the middle of the night. Shi Dang spat out blood after he heard it, and felt bitter and resentful, as if he had become a completely different person.

Dozens of years passed by in a flash. Due to his blindness, Shi Liang's zither skills had become even more exquisite. He had almost reached the state of a demonic god and was thus revered as a demon of pleasure by the world. He was obsessed with music. One day, he would find a master to compete with his zither skills, shake his position as the head of the clan, and take down the title of number one musician in the Acropolis Empire. He would be able to clear away the injustice he had suffered that day.

However, after so many years of painstaking work and planning, all of his previous shame was gone. It was as if all the resentment in his heart had been completely wiped out at once because of Shi Xueman's death. At this moment, any feelings he had were already meaningless. All that was left was a pained sigh and a bitter smile.
