Chapter 769: Zhenguan Tomb, Sword Saint Death
The old man didn't care about Zhang Yang's reaction, and continued: "Come with me, there are some things that should be known to you. ”
Zhang Yang was overjoyed when he heard this, the old man was finally willing to tell himself those doubts, he had waited for a long time for this day.
The old man's expression was a little depressed, without the slightest excitement, and he didn't say much about the surprise of Zhang Yang, and walked towards the depths of the compound by himself.
The two of the Dark Kings didn't follow, this is a family matter of the Zhenguan clan, they don't need to get involved, and besides, they are already very happy to get Zhang Yang's promise this time, so it's better not to make extraneous branches.
Zhang Yang followed the old man all the way forward, and the excitement just now slowly dissipated, and he also noticed the change in the old man's expression. Seeing that the old man who was as strong as he could not control his emotions, Zhang Yang was a little clear, it seemed that the secret of the Zhenguan clan was not a good thing.
Follow the old man until he walked to the end of a courtyard, and the two stopped, the old man's eyes were a little confused, and he sighed lightly for a long time, as if he remembered something unbearable from the past.
However, many years have passed, and the old man is not as sad as he was at the beginning, only to see a few handprints in his hands, and a dark passage suddenly appeared on the courtyard wall that had just been roadless.
"Come in with me, remember these mudras, and I'll give them to you later."
Zhang Yang touched his head and said with some curiosity: "Where is this going?" Could this be the entrance to the Heavenly Pass? ”
The old man sneered and said disdainfully: "Nonsense, if the entrance to Tongtian Pass is so simple, then it will take fifty years to open it?" ”
After speaking, he didn't give Zhang Yang an explanation, and continued to walk towards the endless deep passage.
Along the way, Zhang Yang became more curious in his heart, originally he thought that the old man's small world was too small, but now he has walked with the old man for more than ten minutes and has not reached the end of the small world. I don't know how many secrets there are in this small world of the old man.
And this small world doesn't seem to be as simple as an ordinary small world, this is obviously a realm within a realm, and the compound outside is not in a small world at all.
Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the old man's background is too deep, and it may be more difficult to open another world in a small world than to build a new small world with a strong mind. And I don't know how many realms the old man has built in the small world, and this strength is enough for him to look up to.
I was speechless all the way, and I didn't know how long I had walked, until I saw a light coming from the end of the passage, and I didn't know that I was finally going to enter another small world.
The old man, who had been silent in front of the passage, suddenly stopped, his face was complicated, and he sighed lightly for a long time: "Go in." You're the only descendant of my Zhenguan clan, and there's something I should let you know. ”
Zhang Yang wondered in his heart, the old man's mood is very wrong today, is there something amazing in it?
However, all these doubts were about to appear in front of him, and Zhang Yang didn't want to speculate. Stepping forward and stepping out of the portal of the passage.
……
Zhang Yang's mind was blank, and he was stunned from the moment he stepped into this realm.
The endless void seems to be filled with endless sorrow. That unyielding fighting spirit. That trace of unwillingness and regret made Zhang Yang's heart panic.
Zhang Yang suddenly had an urge to cry, this urge was once when he was in Longshan, but that time was definitely not as strong as it is now.
Looking at the dozens of jade coffins floating in the void, even if Zhang Yang didn't know anything before, he could guess something, and the resonance in the depths of the blood made him clearly realize where he had come.
This is the burial ground of the strong people of the Zhenguan clan!
The momentum that came out of that mouthful of jade coffins was a little dazed, how could this be. A person can still maintain such a momentum after death, and he has seen it once in the ruins over the years.
It was a top powerhouse who broke through the void in half a step, but the weakest momentum coming from the dozens of jade coffins in this void was not much different from that of a puppet venerable.
Zhang Yang felt that he was a little out of breath, and gasped violently a few times before he suddenly looked back at the envoy who came from the air. His throat seemed to be blocked, and he said in a low voice after a while: "This is?" ”
Zhang Ruoxu's expression was a little dazed, and he looked at this jade coffin blankly, and he didn't come back to his senses until Zhang Yang asked him.
With a hint of sadness on his face, he said lightly: "Didn't you already guess it?" ”
Although Zhang Yang had already guessed some, he was really sure when he heard the old man's answer. Zhang Yang restrained his emotions for a while, and the sadness on his face dissipated, although the people here may be his ancestors, but after all, it has been so long, he has never seen these people, and he is not so sad.
Most of the gaffes just now were also because of the blood induction between the strong, especially the sadness that filled the void, which affected him.
Although these top powerhouses have been dead for a long time, their will is still handed down, and even a concentrating peak powerhouse like Zhang Yang has been unknowingly affected.
Zhang Yang gasped in his heart, fortunately, these people are their own ancestors who have no ill will towards them, otherwise even if they die, they may be able to destroy themselves with that immortal will.
He was still a little puzzled in his heart, what did the old man bring him to this cemetery for, and why didn't his father be buried?
As if he had guessed Zhang Yang's thoughts, a trace of sadness appeared on Zhang Ruoxu's face, and he said sadly: "My Zhenguan clan has been inherited from the ancestor generation to me for 8,000 years, after fifteen generations, the clan has more than 3,000 people, and the people buried here are all strong people who break the void. ”
Although Zhang Yang had already guessed some of the momentum coming from their jade coffins, when the old man said that these people were all powerhouses, Zhang Yang was still shocked.
Broken void!
I'm afraid there are no less than fifty jade coffins here, which means that among the three thousand people of the Zhenguan clan, there are fifty powerhouses who break the void! Plus those contemplation casts, at least more than three hundred people, what kind of concept is this!
The rumbling in Zhang Yang's head is incredible, the probability of one in ten can cast the incorruptible body of Vajra, doesn't that mean that almost everyone can achieve the transformation of strength.
Without waiting for Zhang Yang to think about it, the old man continued to sigh: "It's a pity that now there are only two people in the Zhenguan family, you and me, and the Zhenguan family is no longer as powerful as it used to be." ”
"Do you know how they died?"
The old man forcibly suppressed the loneliness in his heart, and a trace of hideousness flashed on his face when he asked.
Zhang Yang's heart was shocked, didn't these people die of running out of longevity?
Add to that the endless pathos of this void. Zhang Yang shuddered suddenly, nearly fifty powerhouses, could it be that all of them have run out of longevity?
Even those old ghosts behind the Martial Arts Society and Guoan can live for thousands of years, and with such a strong strength of the Zhenguan clan, can no one delay their longevity?
Zhang Yang felt that the old man in front of him was uncovering a huge net for himself, and he faintly felt in his heart that this was a secret related to the whole world, and he was unveiling his veil layer by layer.
"How did you die?"
Zhang Yang's voice was a little hoarse when he asked, with a slight tremor, the truth is in front of him, is he finally going to come into contact with this biggest secret.
The old man doesn't seem to be ready to hide it, and now Zhang Yang is qualified to know these secrets. What's more, the Zhenguan clan is now such a lone seedling. If you don't tell him that you will die one day, won't you end the inheritance of the Zhenguan clan.
"Killed! Every thousand years is a reincarnation, thousands of years ago my great-grandfather, grandfather. All my uncles died in battle! My father, your grandfather, was also seriously wounded, and he did not survive to be 800 years old. ”
The old man's eyes were blood-red. Whispered hiss. His face was full of hideousness.
Without waiting for Zhang Yang to ask, the old man suddenly shouted: "You have to remember this blood feud!" Eight or nine out of ten of my 3,000 people have died at their hands, and this revenge will not be avenged! ”
Zhang Yang's expression froze, and his face said coldly: "Who is it?" How did my father die? ”
Although he has not received any favors from the Zhenguan clan, he has the blood of the Zhenguan clan flowing in his bones, and even if the Zhenguan envoy does not say it, he will not fail to repay it.
He is not a magnanimous person. Treat your enemies with blood!
The other party killed thousands of other people, and it was impossible for him not to take revenge for such a big revenge, but Zhang Yang was more concerned about the death of the Sword Saint. Although he hadn't seen that man with his own eyes, he could never forget that strong love for calves.
Thinking of the Long Huajing Zhang Yang left by that man before he died, he felt a pain in his heart. He didn't forget, and he didn't dare to forget!
As a strong person in the Dao, even if he is seriously injured, he may not have a chance to recover, but he still gave up the last chance to save his life. Zhang Yang couldn't guess the specific reason, but he guessed that there was a chance that someone was chasing him at that time, and the Sword Saint gave up his life, perhaps in order to disperse his life breath and make the enemy lose the clue to track.
Why did he do this, Zhang Yang could guess that no matter how stupid he was, it should be to save his life.
Thinking of this, a trace of sadness flashed on Zhang Yang's face, but his eyes were fiercely looking at the Zhenguan envoy, he wanted to know why the Zhenguan envoy, who was a powerhouse who broke the void, didn't save his father in the first place.
He couldn't guess how strong the Zhenguan envoy was, but he knew that his strength was definitely stronger than that of ordinary powerhouses, and such a strong man couldn't even protect his son?
Zhang Yang's question seemed to poke at the bottom of Zhang Ruoxu's heart, and at that moment, this world-famous powerhouse seemed to have lost the spirit of his whole body, and the whole person seemed to be dozens of years old in a moment.
His ruddy face turned much paler, and that was his son, his only son!
If he can save it, how can he not save it, even if he dies himself, he doesn't want the white-haired person to send the black-haired person, but he can't!
Although he has broken the shackles of fate and is omnipotent, the world is fair, and people will always lose something when they get something.
And what he lost was his only son, the only heir of the Zhenguan clan for sixteen generations, and who knows the pain.
Even when he saw the old man's sadness, he didn't take his eyes away, his eyes still looked at the envoy of Zhenguan fiercely, and said word by word: "Grandpa, tell me!" ”
This was the first time he had called the Zhenguan envoy his grandfather, because that person was his father!
He won't let his blood go in vain, and he owes himself to get it back for him! No matter who it is, he must avenge this revenge!
The revenge of the Zhenguan clan is not as good as the father's hatred, Zhang Yang can not care about killing these enemies who break the void and the strong, but he will not let go of the enemies of the Sword Saint!
The old man's expression was both relieved and dissatisfied, and he smiled bitterly for a while: "You bastard, do you think that grandpa will deliberately not save your father?" ”
Seeing that the old man looked a little depressed, Zhang Yang also knew that he had misunderstood, and said with a dry smile: "Grandson didn't mean that, but you have to tell me how my father died, right?" ”
"Alas! It's all fate! ”
Even if he has reached the realm of the old man, the world-strong man who has broken the shackles of fate can't help sighing at this moment, and the "life" in his mouth is so helpless.
"Your father was born at the most difficult time for my Zhenguan clan. Your great-grandfather had passed away at that time. I was the only one in charge of the situation, and I had to retreat at that time, and I didn't have time to take care of your father. ”
The old man seemed to be immersed in the memories of the past, and his face showed a trace of embarrassment, at this moment he looked like a real old man.
"Your father's martial arts talent is not good, and he was born in the Zhenguan family, so he has been under tremendous pressure since he was a child. At that time, I was in retreat, and your grandmother died of her injuries when she gave birth to your father, and the pressure on his heart was too great. ”
Zhang Yang didn't interrupt the old man's words, and lowered his head and listened carefully.
Although he could not empathize with the pressure his father was under. But you can guess it. From the tone of the old man, you can guess that the situation of the Zhenguan clan at that time was not good, how could my father, who was the only descendant of the sixteenth generation of the Zhenguan clan at that time, not feel the huge pressure.
As the old man said slowly, Zhang Yang seemed to see a sword saint who had been carrying a heavy burden since his childhood.
Maybe he was unwilling, maybe he wanted to share the pressure of the Zhenguan clan for the old man, and the sword saint had been practicing martial arts since he was a child. But his talent may be good in the outside world. But for the Zhenguan clan that has produced dozens of powerhouses, it is not worth mentioning.
After practicing martial arts for decades, the Sword Saint could not step into the realm of detachment, and it was not until fifty years ago that the Sword Saint decided to break through the Heavenly Pass alone when the Tongtian Pass was opened.
The old man didn't stop it. After coming out of the Tongtian Pass, the Sword Saint broke through the transformation energy. And stepping into Huajin did not satisfy him. This time, the Sword Saint decided to go out to practice, and this decision may be the beginning of his step into the road of death.
Needless to say, maybe the luck of the Sword Saint is not bad, maybe his previous efforts were not in vain, and the Sword Saint has broken through the realm of Qi acceptance in just a few years.
Among them, he got acquainted with the martial saint who was known as the first person in martial arts at that time, and the two became close friends. Later, they founded the martial arts society together.
At that time, the Sword Saint was very ambitious, and even in his thoughts, the old man's mentality of closing off the country was the real reason for the continuous weakening of the strength of the Zhenguan clan. He wants to create a new world, and he wants to create a sect that is not weaker than the Zhenguan clan.
He felt that only by continuously absorbing foreign talents could he revive the glory of the Zhenguan clan, and he was like-minded with the martial saints who also wanted to revive the Guansheng clan. The two of them slaughtered in all directions in the martial arts to strengthen the power of the sect.
But all these hopes were dashed in the face of the Dark King, and he and the Martial Saint united dozens of Transforming Martial Artists were all defeated by the Dark King.
Maybe he didn't know the true identity of the Dark King, or maybe even if he did, he would prove to outsiders that all those who stood in his way to revive the Zhenguan clan would be swept away.
It's a pity that in the end, it was the Zhenguan envoy who made a move to let them escape by luck, which made the Sword Saint how could he be willing.
He knew that all these factors were due to his lack of strength, and he studied hard while constantly challenging the masters of the Quartet. He let the Martial Saint sit in charge of the Martial Arts Society and continue to strengthen the strength of the Martial Arts Society, but he himself embarked on the road of improving his martial arts.
But all of this was shattered when he got the news of the Martial Saint's death, his best friends, his hope for revival, all of which were dashed with the death of the Martial Saint!
This made the Sword Saint how to be willing, and the death of the Martial Saint made him completely realize that no matter how powerful it was, it would not work, and the only useful thing was invincible strength.
This time he was completely insane, at that time he had stepped into the realm of initiation for several years, but he did not see the slightest hope of casting. Having seen his father's invincible strength since he was a child, how could he be willing to stay in the realm of initiation, he wanted to cast his body, to concentrate, to break the void, he could not and was unwilling to be blocked in the realm of initiation.
This idea of improving his strength at all costs is the lifeline that will bring the Sword Saint to the end, and he continues to challenge the top masters of the various major sect families in order to cast his body. In the first few years, his strength did improve, but he couldn't cast his body.
The Sword Saint couldn't wait, he chose the most dangerous path, and the fastest one, he was going to the Forbidden Land to find the Vajra Bead!
It was a point of no return, compared to Tongtian Pass, that was the real Jedi, and it was that choice that completely buried the life of the Sword Saint.
Speaking of this, the old man was already in tears, his heart was extremely painful, and he blamed himself: "I blame me for everything, I gave him too much pressure!" He's too strong, but I don't realize it. I've always treated him like a child, and I thought he created the martial arts academy just for fun, but who knows......"
Zhang Yang didn't expect his father to be so strong, maybe it was because the pain that had been suppressed since he was a child exploded, or maybe it was because the old man put too much pressure on him that made him rebellious.
I don't understand the Sword Saint's later choice of Zhang Yang, maybe it was because of his obsession that he couldn't break through the casting body for a long time, otherwise he could have succeeded in casting with the background of the Zhenguan clan.
From the thick sadness in the old man's tone, it can be felt that the old man has arranged everything for the Sword Saint, but in the end, he still can't save the Sword Saint's life.
In the eyes of the old man, the sword saint will always be that thin child, the sword saint is the descendant of him after he broke the void, the old man was already hundreds of years old at that time, how could he not hurt this son.
It's a pity that all this Sword Saint can't understand, maybe he felt regret at the moment of his death, and only then did he understand that there is no father in the world who doesn't love his children.
Unfortunately, it was too late, and in the end he chose to die, perhaps because he felt his father's love that he passed on this love to his son. (To be continued......)
