Qu Zhengfeng still remembers that shortly after returning from Xihai, he heard that Kunwu, a high-ranking Hengxu real person, ordered a search of Xihai, saying that "there are demons and evil generals in the world."

But later, there was no trace of this demon.

So this matter was put on hold. Later, he betrayed Yashan and came to the sea of stars tomorrow, and he never heard about it again.

But I never expected it......

Today, the night ship with an obscure background has seen this person again, this big demon!

"Ahem......"

The blood and qi all over his body were chaotic, Qu Zhengfeng couldn't help coughing, and his steps were a little staggering, and he helped the door frame next to him before he walked up.

Red Butterfly hesitated, but didn't reach out to help him.

The existence of such a qu Zhengfeng, given time, is certain to be comparable to the silent Venerable Master in the past, and even if it is still excessive, it is not known. Where does he need help?

Merely......

"You just said, big demon?"

At the beginning, Hengxu Zhenren had already made a conclusion, saying that this evil demon was originally a mayfly, and it was created by heaven and earth, so it turned into a demon, and had the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.

There is nothing wrong with saying that it is a "big demon".

Regarding the confusion of the red butterfly, Qu Zhengfeng suddenly felt inexplicable: "It is indeed a big demon." ”

“……”

Red Butterfly was silent for a moment, her eyes swept over Qu Zhengfeng, and she saw him sitting cross-legged at the table with pain, but the two swiping moth eyebrows slowly wrinkled.

"But I, whether it was yesterday or today, didn't feel half of the demonic power. ”

When a pill was swallowed, the power of the medicine suddenly melted like a clear spring.

The injuries in Qu Zhengfeng's body are rapidly dissolving at a rate of ice melting and snow melting. But Red Butterfly's sudden words made him pause suddenly.

"No demonic power?"

"You know, I'm an old monster of the ancients......"

The length of Red Butterfly's cultivation time far exceeds that of most of the old monsters and great powers in the Nineteen Continents now, but it is only limited by the demon body first, and then limited by the hidden realm of Qingfeng An, so its strength is comparable to that of a monk who has returned to the void period.

But Rao is like this, such strength is one of the few in the entire sea of stars.

Not to mention, as a demon cultivator, she has a unique advantage when feeling her kind.

"When I reach my realm, whenever there are demon cultivators around, I can detect it. Unless they have cultivated to the realm of transformation and turned away from the demonic energy, they are only one step away from being able to ascend to the immortal. ”

Red Butterfly glanced at the piece of wood carved on the window lattice that had been broken by herself, and her voice was a little solemn.

"But I saw the scene from afar yesterday. At that time, I just thought that the old devil of the southeast wilderness was coming and fought here......"

The mainstream of the Nineteen Continents today is entirely monks.

Whether it is the Left Three Thousand in the Central Regions, or the Southwest Family, whether it is the Tomorrow Star Sea, or the Southeast Barbarium, or whether it is the Northern Regions Buddhism, or the Yin and Yang Two Sects......

All of them are monks.

As for demon cultivators?

As early as the rise of the power of the ancient monks, they disappeared in one war after another and encirclement and suppression.

Therefore, in today's Nineteen Continents, decent demon cultivators are very rare, and they often hide in barren mountains and mountains, or live in the vast West Sea, and rarely come out to walk.

If you want to say that there is still a "heavenly demon" hidden here, and the "heavenly demon" that is about to soar to the realm of cultivation, Red Butterfly doesn't believe it at all.

Qu Zhengfeng is also clear about these situations. It's just that he never thought that Red Butterfly didn't feel the slightest bit of demonic power!

But that young man is clearly ......

The sound is loud, and the elephant is invisible.

Compared to the fierce and terrifying shape of the "centipede" in the main hall, he looks like he will give people a very comfortable feeling, and even every attack when he shoots has a sense of returning to the basics, which is natural!

It was as if he was nature, the universe.

The patterns that crawled all over his miserable green robe certainly revealed a sense of dilapidation and obsolescence, but at that moment, those eyes had a new vitality.

Whether it's old or young, it's not clear at all.

Contradictory, but also natural.

Qu Zhengfeng has never seen such a strong enemy since he has cultivated, and he even has a strange premonition in the dark - even the Hengxu Zhenren, who is known as the first person in the left three thousand in the Central Domain, is only slightly inferior when he comes to this person.

Whoever saw it thought he was a demon, but Red Butterfly said no.

No?

So what kind of existence should it be?

The shadow of the hideous eyeless centipede in the main hall swept past Qu Zhengfeng's heart, leaving a few faint traces. But when I had to think about it carefully, I felt that there was no trace.

He slowly closed his eyes and said, "No matter who he is, but knowing and worrying is always true." ”

"Acquaintance?"

This was a big surprise to Red Butterfly, and she was surprised.

But Qu Zhengfeng didn't say anything more.

His face was full of heaviness and coldness, he only sat cross-legged, put his hands lightly on his knees, and then suddenly pinched the trick!

At this moment, there was an external fierce force that burst out from the ancestral aperture of his eyebrows. I saw a dark blue ripple start above his head and press towards his arms.

"Poof!"

When the dark blue ripples were pressed, a sticky black gas as thick as thick ink came out from the fingertips he was pinching!

Red Butterfly gasped.

This black qi forced out by Qu Zhengfeng, unusually demonic aura, actually seemed to be alive, constantly squirming, wanting to drill back into his body!

Seeing this, Qu Zhengfeng's eyes were already cold.

When he raised his hand, he held this black gas in his palm and shook it hard!

At this moment, Red Butterfly clearly saw that at the bottom of his eyes that were as cold as a cold pool, a mysterious and complex golden seal flashed.

So I only heard a "poof" sound, and the mass of sacks, like a punctured bag, immediately stopped, shrank sharply, and then dissipated into a puff of green smoke.

"This power ......"

Red Butterfly was a little frightened, and only felt a little cold on her body.

Qu Zhengfeng knew that this power was just the tip of the iceberg he encountered yesterday. Nineteen continents are vast, who knows, how many unknown powerhouses are still hidden?

"If I break through to the void, I may barely have the strength to fight. ”

Back to the ......

When Red Butterfly heard this, she looked at him with a little more complicated eyes, and only said: "Yuanying is a huge watershed, and if you advance out of your body, you must face the 'Conscience Dao Tribulation'." You've been trapped in your 'heart' for nearly 400 years. After crossing this hurdle, cultivation is a thousand miles in a day, and in just 60 years, it is already the peak of 'joining the WTO', and it is only half a step away from being able to complete the promotion and 'return to emptiness'. ”

Half a step.

Half a step back to nothing.

In the entire Tomorrow Star Sea, some people may have guessed that his realm has reached the end of the world.

But no one should be able to perceive that he is already at the peak of his entry into the WTO, and he is only one step away from entering the next realm and entering the ranks of the real "power" of the Nineteen Continents!

It's a pity......

Qu Zhengfeng lowered his eyes and looked at his pale palm after forcing back the black qi: "It's a pity, sometimes, half a step is the moat." ”

The so-called "accession to the WTO" means that what you enter is the "earthly world", the "worldly world", and the "human world".

The key point of this realm is actually very much like the "red dust tribulation" often said in Buddhism, it is necessary for the monk to truly understand all kinds of earthly experiences, and have his own unique enlightenment, in order to cultivate to perfection.

Red Butterfly herself is walking the demon path, and her practice is different from that of a monk, and her own spirituality is sufficient, so she has not encountered any obstacles at the so-called "WTO accession" threshold.

can be replaced with a positive wind......

He used to be the elder brother of Yashan, and he also reached the top of the one-person platform in his early years, and his cultivation talent was peerless, but a "conscience" trapped him for four hundred years, and now it is a mental obstacle of "entering the WTO".

"'Conscience' Dao Tribulation, you have been wandering and suffering for 400 years, and it is still forgivable for a reason. But now that you have entered the WTO, you are still hesitant......"

In order to keep silent about the Venerable's great hatred, Red Butterfly came to Qu Zhengfeng's side.

She didn't want him to stop there.

"Seven emotions and six desires do not have to be extinguished, but they must be thorough. Joy, anger and sorrow, love and hate, you have understood most of it. It's just that last little bit left. ”

Where the last little bottleneck is, Qu Zhengfeng himself knows. Just listening to Red Butterfly's words, he suddenly didn't want to deal with it.

"I have my own plans for my practice. ”

"But Your Majesty the Sword Emperor, this matter is not up to you—"

Red Butterfly directly interrupted his words, and at this moment, his gaze suddenly took on an unprecedented sharpness, as if he had seen through Qu Zhengfeng, and there was an unspeakable sigh hidden.

"You know, you can't help yourself. ”

“……”

The five fingers that are spread out are slowly retracted and clenched together.

On Qu Zhengfeng's face, the expression at this time was unpredictable to the extreme, as if there were thousands of emotions passing by, but with that seemingly inadvertent drooping eyes, they were all hidden in the deep shadow under the eyes.

At this time, Red Butterfly can only see his still, still silhouette, like a majestic mountain, with a deep sense of power.

Somehow, I didn't want to look at it anymore.

She turned around and pushed the door open, and finally walked straight out.

In the hall, only Qu Zhengfeng was left, with his back to the door, sitting cross-legged, still motionless.

*

"See you, Senior Sister!"

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard where the left stream was recuperating from his injuries, a cry of surprise sounded directly and reached the ears of sorrow. She turned her head and saw Xiao Jin, sitting under the eaves, holding a large watermelon in his arms.

Although there are nails in the past, Xiaojin doesn't look much taller.

Even this appearance, this nondescript looking dress, and the little braid on the back of the head, have not changed much.

As soon as he saw the sorrow, he almost threw away the watermelon in his arms, and rushed to her like a monkey in three or two steps, his two big eyes shining.

"Senior sister, you're finally here. Senior Brother Bai Yin went out early in the morning to inquire about the news, and Zuoliu was healing in it, I really didn't have half of the people who spoke to relieve my boredom, but I was suffocated!"

“……”

Seeing the corners of her mouth, she couldn't help twitching, and the situation of Xiao Jin's mother-in-law who kept talking about herself yesterday suddenly came to mind.

It's not his fault that he said that he got lost, and he blamed the terrain of Tomorrow's Star Sea for being too complicated and the streets too prosperous......

God knows that a personable person like Bai Yin is so angry that he rolls his eyes!

It's just that in the matter of getting lost, Xiao Jin is too good to say, Bai Yin is overwhelmed, and in the end he can only succumb to the obscenity of his verbal attack, and reluctantly admit that Xiao Jin's loss has nothing to do with Xiao Jin himself.

At that time, I was on the side and witnessed the whole process.

It's ......

Amazing.

Now that she heard Xiao Jin mention something to "talk to relieve boredom", she only felt that her head was faintly bigger, and suddenly gave birth to a kind of thought, "Anyway, Zuoliu is recuperating from his injuries now, but he doesn't need to go to see it, just leave......

Cough.

This is certainly not true.

Seeing that he coughed, he put back all the thoughts that were flying around his head, and only walked inside, and said with a smile: "I have something to do, I went to find the Red Butterfly Fairy, and I will come back at this time." It's you, I just know that you are actually the little young master of the Jin family in the southwest. Now that the matter of the Silver Building is over, you still don't want to go back?"

"I finally came out for a trip, so I won't go back!"

With a "click", Xiao Jin took a bite of the watermelon while holding it, and the juice splashed on the animal skin short coat on his body.

"Seeing that it will be another three thousand meetings in a few days, I still want to go and see the excitement. ”

Left 3,000 small meeting ......

I was stunned for a moment, and then I remembered in a trance: Yes, sixty years have passed. The small club is held every 30 years, and this year, isn't it just right?

If I'm not mistaken, this year, I'm still in Kunwu.

I don't know what Jiazi looks like, what does Kunwu look like now, and what does Yashan look like?

Seeing the sorrowful thoughts, he suddenly flew away for a while.

It wasn't until there was a soft "squeak" sound in front of her that she came back to her senses, it was Xiao Jin who directly helped her push open the door in front of her, and shouted out of sight: "Left stream, left stream, see that Senior Sister Sorrow is here!"

There were tables, chairs, and beds in the room, but Zuoliu was sitting cross-legged on a futon in front of the desk.

A Gathering Spirit Clearing Heart Formation was placed around him, gathering the aura around him, and for a while he saw the phantom shadows of one red lotus after another, entwined with karmic fire, rising from under him, and soon disappearing again, and so on.

Originally, he was very dedicated. But when cultivating this kind of thing, the most taboo thing is to be disturbed by outsiders.

Almost as soon as he heard Xiao Jin's shout, Zuo Liu directly stopped his cultivation and let out a painful wail: "What a sin!"

You don't have to think about it to know that this "sin" is definitely not your own.

Trapped in the Polar Region for a long time, she hadn't seen these old acquaintances for a long time, maybe she hadn't seen them go back and forth like this for a long time.

When I saw it suddenly, it was still a little kind in the end.

I didn't see Xiao Jin next to him deliberately roll out the white eyes of the left side, and when he saw that he was worried, he walked up and asked with a smile: "How are you recovering from your injury?"

"No, it's not a big deal. ”

In the face of sorrow, Zuoliu somehow became a little restrained.

Now that he has been cleaned of his dirt and changed into a clean robe, yesterday's embarrassment has disappeared, but now he looks very energetic.

"After taking the pill given by Senior Brother Bai and meditating for one night, most of them have recovered. ”

Yashan has a deep heritage, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is truly wealthy.

Seeing sorrow had already asked in private yesterday, Bai Yin really brought a million spirit stones, but he didn't plan to give it at all. Carry, just in case.

The elixirs of Yashan have always been refined by Dantang, and they are almost exclusively used by disciples in the sect, so their reputation is not obvious.

But if it really talks about the utility, it is not much better than the White Moon Valley.

Seeing that he heard Zuoliu say this, and then looked at the operation of the aura around him, he knew that the problem was indeed not big, and his heart was much more relaxed.

So he sat down and talked with Xiao Jin Zuoliu for a while.

I haven't seen each other for a long time, they have their own experiences, the left-rate ones sound more miserable, and the Xiaojin ones are ...... To some extent, it can be regarded as "miserable".

After all, for a teenager who desires to have his own, the family's set is too restrictive.

As for seeing oneself, there is nothing to talk about.

What she has experienced, with Zuoliu and Xiaojin, is not on the same line at all. She had no intention of showing off, let alone complaining, so she only casually rebuked a few words, which caused the other two bosses to be dissatisfied.

It can be seen that she doesn't care so much, and seeing that it was getting late, she took the initiative to end the topic and say goodbye to the two.

Bai Yin has been gone for almost half a day, and he hasn't come back yet, so he must have found some substantive news, and he couldn't get out of it for a while.

Seeing that he was worried, he walked outside, and at the same time pinched a wind letter out, waiting to ask about the progress.

It's just that she walked out not far away, and the mirror-like Pinghu Lake in front of her suddenly entered her field of vision.

Awakening Villa was built on a hill on a tributary of the Lan River, and the appearance of this piece of Pinghu was really a bit unexpected to her.

I remember yesterday, I didn't even notice that there was this lake.

Maybe it was too late in the day when she came yesterday, and she was so preoccupied that she didn't notice it, right?

At this time, the sun has set in the west, and the afterimage is like a silky silk, spreading out on the surface of the lake.

The surface of the lake that is dozens of zhang wide is not very large, and there are weeping poplars around the shore on all sides, and there are several lake stones scattered on the shore. The water of the lake is very clear, and you can see it at a glance, but it is not very deep.

Merely......

Even if he was far away, he found that there seemed to be a lot of things in this lake.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone down from the surface of the lake, but there was some faint light at the bottom of the lake, which reflected up, passed through the lake, and fell into her eyes.

Seeing that he was a little curious, he turned around and walked towards this piece of Pinghu.

When she stood on the shore, she was surprised to find—

This turned out to be a piece of "Sword Lake"!

Under the surface of the lake dozens of zhang wide, those faintly glowing things are neither gems nor pearls, but long swords that are as bright as autumn water!

They look identical, and there is no difference to be found.

Every sword is inserted at the bottom of the lake, and the flowing water erodes its edge, and the dust buries its cold light!

As far as the eye can see, under this small "Sword Lake", there are thousands of long swords!

Seeing the sorrowful heart, I couldn't help but tremble for a moment.

Somehow, she suddenly remembered the Yashan Arsenal she had been to in the past, those divine weapons and blades buried in the ice and snow for thousands of years......

"When ......"

Suddenly, there was a soft sound from under his feet.

Seeing that I realized that I had unconsciously stood on the shore of the lake, and when I was moving forward, I didn't pay attention to my feet, and it seemed that I had touched something.

So he looked down.

It turned out to be a small, dark black sword sharpening platform, and an ordinary iron sword resting on it.

It was this sword that she had just touched under her feet.

But this is not even a real sword, at most it is a "sword embryo", the blades on both sides are only half sharpened, and the other half is rough and blunt.

It's unremarkable, something that can be found in any blacksmith shop.

How could such a sword appear in the Awakening Villa?

Seeing that he looked at it for a long time, he thought for a while, but he couldn't understand it after all, so he moved and bent over, and reached out to pick up this sword and see what was going on.

But I didn't expect that-

She stretched out her hand, and just as her fingertips touched the sword body, a dark blue sword light burst out from the sword body!

Seeing that he didn't have time to react, he felt that his fingertips were cold, and then he felt a pain.

"Tick-tock. ”

Blood suddenly fell from her slightly bent ring finger and dotted on the dark sword sharpening platform below!

Her body, but after being tempered by multiple layers of "Human Weapon" refining body, she was injured by an inconspicuous sword from an iron sword?

The two distant mountain-like eyebrows tightened at once.

Seeing that he was worried and looked at the unfinished sword on the sharpening platform, he fell into a daze for a while.

When Qu Zhengfeng came, he happened to see this scene.

This female cultivator, who was a little at a loss when she was brought to Yashan by her master in the past, now has the talent and strength to take charge of herself.

If you think about it, it's only been 60 years.

At this moment, the eyes she looked at this mortal sword suddenly reminded him of the look in her eyes when she looked at the other sword when she was selecting magic weapons in the Yashan Arsenal that day.

That mouthful, the three-foot Qingfeng sealed in the glacier, a first-line immortal machine-

The first sword of Yashan, a line of sky.

Qu Zhengfeng walked over slowly: "I thought that after having the ghost axe, you wouldn't look at the sword anymore." ”
