Chapter 70: Xingyue Lake
During the long flight, except for Long Sanguan on the Fu Zhou, the rest of the monks such as Ye Shengqing, Xiyue and Zhufeng had already started to practice on their own.
They either breathe and breathe, warm up the sword element, or close their eyes to meditate and stabilize their state of mind.
Now that they have chosen to come to the Nether Realm and expand the original five-year period to twenty-five years, these outer monks will never waste any opportunity to practice.
In the outer gate competition after the fifth era of the Sword Sect, these monks who have only been in the Sword Sect for ten years can defeat those predecessors and get a good ranking, and the opportunity to do so all depends on the cultivation here.
Placing the [Ben Thunder Sword] horizontally on his knees, between Ye Shengqing's five fingers, there was a golden electric light flashing and jumping, outlining a slightly rough rune rudiment.
"The first rune prohibition is about to be successfully dismantled. ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Ye Shengqing's mouth, and he was quite satisfied with the progress now.
Dissipating the golden lightning at his fingertips, Ye Shengqing took out the swordsmanship "Eye" from his arms again, and did not slack off in his cultivation.
......
In the Sword Sect's martial arts arena, as Lu Li's unpretentious sword fell, Ace, as his opponent, flew out upside down again, rolling on the ground for three or four laps before stopping his body.
Ace staggered to his feet, threw away the rune sword that was disintegrating inch by inch in his hand, shook his head at Lu Li and said, "Don't fight." ”
"Don't, now among the outer monks, you are the only one who is willing to learn from me. ”
Lu Li put the rune giant sword in his hand on the ground and persuaded: "In addition to epiphany, asking each other about the sword is the best way for my generation of martial artists to cultivate, seeing that the outer gate is approaching, why don't you want to fight with me?"
Ace glanced at the stone sword [Zhenyu] that was thrown aside by Lu Li and did not use it, and said angrily: "I only won one of the ten battles, but you didn't even use the [Zhenyu], and if I continue to fight, I am afraid that the sword heart will be damaged." ”
Lu Li sneered: "How can it be so serious...... In this way, take a rest first, and then I will pass on the first sword move of the "Twelve Swords of Heavenly Demons" to you, and after you comprehend it, we will sharpen each other. ”
Ace hurriedly shook his head and said, "Farewell, the Sword Sect has a rule that the secret books of the exercises obtained from the Tongtian Sword Pagoda are not allowed to be taught privately, and I don't dare to risk being expelled from the Sword Sect to learn your sword moves." ”
Lu Li sighed, thinking in his heart who else could accompany him to learn swordsmanship.
......
On the Tongtian Square, Zao Wou-Ki's figure walked out of the crack at the bottom of the sword tower, and he was holding a secret book in his hand, with a purple cover.
Several monks who knew him well had already gathered around.
Zhao Wuji raised the purple cheats in his hand and said with a light smile: "Five hundred and one layers." ”
His voice was not loud, but it was just enough for the surrounding monks to hear, and when he saw the expressions of shock or envy on their faces, the smile on Zao Wou-Ki's face became a little stronger.
......
"Senior Brother Yun, please advise. ”
Shangguan Tingxue stretched out his finger against his eyebrows, and with the standard etiquette of the Sword Sect, he saluted a white-robed monk not far in front of him.
The white-robed monk standing opposite Shangguan Tingxue had a sword hanging from his waist, a short, thick beard on his lips and chin, he was also a disciple of the Frost Condensing Sword Saint, an inner sect monk.
After receiving the summons from Shizun Flying Sword, the white-robed monk rushed from elsewhere to the levitating island, in order to accompany the beautiful little junior sister in front of him to practice swords and learn.
Senior Brother Yun didn't smile, this point was deep in the true inheritance of the Frost Sword Saint, I saw him stretch out his finger against his eyebrows, and after bowing back meticulously, he said, "Little junior sister, take out the sword." ”
Without further ado, Shangguan Tingxue held the frost-white [Cold Blood Sword] in her hand, and when the sword yuan in her body was running, dozens of snow-white sword qi that was as cold as snow and shaped like wind condensed and formed around her.
"Wind and Snow Divine Sword!"
Shangguan heard Xue Jiao's shout, and the wind and snow sword qi that surrounded her immediately shot out, killing that Senior Brother Yun from different directions and angles.
At the same time, Shangguan Tingxue pointed the [Cold Blood Sword] in his hand towards the sky, and in an instant, the temperature within a radius of several miles plummeted, and pieces of illusory snowflakes fell from the sky.
Senior Brother Yun didn't draw his sword, and just relied on the protective sword qi that surrounded his body, he was able to resist dozens of wind and snow sword qi by himself.
Shangguan listened to the snow pointing at the [Cold Blood Sword] in the sky, and suddenly turned around, bringing the anime sky to fly snow to form a whirlwind of ice and snow.
"Ice storms. ”
As Shangguan Tingxue pointed his long sword at Senior Brother Yun, the ice and snow whirlwind seemed to be commanded and roared towards the other party, and in the process, the previous dozens of wind and snow sword qi that had passed by without merit also entered the ice and snow whirlwind, further increasing its power.
Senior Brother Yun was still standing in place, a pair of sharp eyes staring straight at Shangguan Tingxue, whether it was sword qi or wind and snow, he didn't pay any attention to it.
In the roar of the ice and snow whirlwind, Senior Brother Yun's figure was completely engulfed.
Shangguan listened to Xue's expression calmly, neither ashamed of Senior Brother Yun's contempt, nor happy that [Ice Storm] hit the other party.
She just continued to urge the sword element, making the wind faster and the snow stronger, so that the wind and snow sword qi continued to merge into the ice and snow whirlwind.
Shangguan Tingxue's body was frantically consuming the sword element, and the [Ice Storm] gradually turned into a sword qi storm, the speed of the storm became faster and faster, and the scope of the storm became larger and larger, Shangguan Tingxue was no longer able to control this [Ice Storm] at this time, but she still did not stop the injection of sword qi.
During the frenzied rampant [Ice Storm], wisps of uncontrolled sword qi even left bloody marks on Shangguan Tingxue's face and hands.
But she didn't stop.
At this moment, Senior Brother Yun, who was trapped in the middle of the [Ice Storm] and couldn't move, suddenly flashed a trace of regret in his heart, regretting his contempt and carelessness at the beginning.
In the mid-air not far away, the Frost Condensation Sword Saint standing in the air had white hair fluttering wildly, his robe fluttering, and after feeling the power of the [Ice Storm], the Frost Condensing Sword Saint nodded slightly, quite satisfied.
Standing beside the Frost Sword Saint in the Sky was the Lightning Sword Saint, the dark-skinned and wrinkled Sword Saint who spoke, "Why is it still the Wind and Snow Divine Sword?
The Frost Condensing Sword Saint stared at the increasingly violent [Ice Storm] not far away, and did not look back when he heard this, and said, "There are also ways to take advantage of the exercises that are not profound. ”
The Qingdian Sword Saint shook his head and said, "Although this is the case, but the Inner Gate Dabi is imminent, do you expect this female doll to rely on the Wind and Snow Divine Sword and rely on a technique that is less than two hundred layers to compete with Zhao Wouji and these kids?"
The Frost Sword Saint asked rhetorically, "No?"
"Hey, your apprentice is naturally up to you, and it has nothing to do with me if you don't participate in the outer door competition. The Qingdian Sword Saint shrugged his shoulders, and continued after a moment of conversation: "But the new apprentice I have hired must be the first in the outer gate competition. ”
The Frost Condensing Sword Saint said indifferently: "Listening to the snow will get the first place." ”
Qingdian Sword Saint said: "Unless you pass on her advanced skills now, otherwise rely on this "Wind and Snow Divine Sword", even with the help of the [Cold Blood Sword] you gave, that female doll will not be able to enter the top ten." ”
There was no argument, the Frost Sword Master just looked in the direction of [Ice Storm] and said "look".
I saw that in the increasingly violent [Ice Storm], a brilliant sword light suddenly bloomed in a groundbreaking manner, and the wind, the angry snow, the sword qi, everything that dared to intercept in front of this sword light was cut in two.
Senior Brother Yun held the sword in one hand and walked out of the [Ice Storm] that was gradually disintegrating and disintegrating, and the bright sword light pointed at him was uncertain, smashing the aftermath of the [Ice Storm] after disintegrating one by one, and there was no way to look at it.
Shangguan heard Xue's sudden movement, and at this time he took out his sword, only to see her turn into a shadow and rush over, and the frost-white long sword in her hand was handed straight to Senior Brother Yun.
According to common sense, if you want to attack suddenly, it is easier to attack from the side or from the rear than to shoot a sword from the front, but Shangguan Tingxue came from the front.
I saw that her face was expressionless, and the [Cold Blood Sword] in her hand suddenly stabbed out, completely ignoring the brilliant sword light from Senior Brother Yun, and stabbed the [Cold Blood Sword] into Senior Brother Yun's chest with a "snort".
The tip of the [Cold Blood Sword] sword only entered Senior Brother Yun's chest for an inch, and it was difficult to advance even a bit, but the long sword in Senior Brother Yun's hand was already on Shangguan Tingxue's white neck, and it only took a little force to cut off Shangguan Tingxue's head.
Shangguan Tingxue withdrew the [Cold Blood Sword], but there was no blood flowing out of Senior Brother Yun's chest, only to see him let out a long breath, and his collapsed chest returned to its original position.
It turned out that at the moment when this Senior Brother Yun was hit by the sword, he used the method of breathing to slam his chest a few inches away, and relied on this momentary delay to intercept the [Cold Blood Sword] with his own sword qi.
"I lost. Shangguan Tingxue lowered the tip of his sword, and his expression was slightly gloomy.
Senior Brother Yun removed the long sword, shook his head and said, "You only need to have fifty percent of my cultivation for this sword, and I can't resist it, and in terms of swordsmanship alone, you win." ”
Shangguan Tingxue pursed her lips lightly, obviously not agreeing with this statement, for her, victory is victory, defeat is defeat, there is no so many reasons.
In the mid-air not far away, the Celestial Sword Saint smiled and said, "This female doll is good, she can actually see that only by striking a sword from the front can she have a chance, and she must be among the top ten with this eyesight." ”
The Frost Sword Saint didn't say anything, he stepped out, and his figure instantly appeared next to Shangguan Tingxue, and his tone was indifferent but very serious to Shangguan Tingxue to analyze the gains and losses of the battle just now.
......
"Xingyue Lake has arrived. ”
I don't know how long it took to fly, the speed of the Fu Zhou suddenly slowed down, and the voice of Long Sanguan sounded in the ears of every outer monk, clear but not too loud, and it would not wake up the few monks who were meditating, which could be said to be quite caring.
Ye Shengqing retracted his mind when he heard this, and cast his gaze downward.
Xingyue Lake is a large lake, and from a high place, bright or bright stars are scattered among it.
In the center of the lake is a dark red crescent, which is blurred, breaking and reorganizing with the ripples of the water, like a virtual shadow reflected in the sky, which is very unreal.
Ye Shengqing looked up, only to see that the sky was still dark red, how could there be stars and red moons?
"It's beautiful. Shigetsu Chasing the Wind looked at the lake below and praised loudly.
The elven girl immediately looked at Ye Shengqing and said to him, "Could the stars, sun, and moon that disappeared from the Nether realm be in this star-moon lake?"
Ye Shengqing shook his head and said honestly: "Well, I don't know. ”
Xiyue Chasing the Wind pursed her lips, and her body suddenly moved and jumped off the rune boat, flying towards the lake containing the stars and red moon.
Long Sanguan didn't stop it, he drove the Fu Boat to gradually fall, and said to the monks behind him: "You can also go to the lake and take a turn, as long as you don't sink too deep into the water, there will be no danger." ”
Hearing this, several monks followed the wind, wanting to see the magical and beautiful lake up close.
Ye Shengqing didn't get up, he saw scattered and scattered figures around the lakeshore, so he asked, "Who are those people?"
