The will of the upper echelons?

When the Sword Demon said this word, Wang Lu fell silent. ,!

What an unexpected explanation.

Of course, the words of the Sword Demon could not be fully believed, but the matter had come to this point, and there was no better choice than to listen carefully, so Wang Lu gradually extinguished his fighting spirit and quietly accepted the revival of the world realm.

The clouds in front of him broke through the sky, a piece of light, the traces left by the sword demon before had all disappeared, as for whether it was temporarily dormant or permanent, it was unknown for the time being, and in a mountain col, the sword spirit Liang Qiu was lying quietly on a clear lake, it seemed that he was only overconsumed, and he was not too seriously injured.

Wang Lu sighed in his heart, the feeling of escaping death was not as good as he imagined, and the ups and downs were not all pleasure, although the Jedi counterattack this time brought back a city, but compared to the Jedi counterattack, he still liked to crush.

Letting go of the little turmoil in his heart, Wang Lu decided to listen to the sword demon first.

"Where do you start?" After pondering for a moment, the Sword Demon shook his head self-deprecatingly, "Because I really didn't expect you to pass the level, I didn't even prepare a commentary, so let's just think of where to go." ”

As he spoke, the Sword Demon retracted his expression and said in a deep voice, "Actually, you asked an excellent question before, but unfortunately I was interrupted by the Sword God before I could go deeper, and you asked me what was the purpose of going to great lengths to seek a resurrection from the dead. In fact, when I used the Baili Leyline to fight the Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulations, I already had the will to die, and at that time, I spent a full twenty years of preparation, and I had already prepared everything before and after me, and I even felt that if I didn't die in that battle, I was sorry for the hard work of these twenty years. Resurrection from the dead is an extraneous matter. ”

Wang Lu said: "Didn't you say that it was because you were defiled by the world's will before you died, so that you could not die blindly? ”

The Sword Demon said: "Yes, I was completely unexpectedly contaminated by the world's will power before I died, but because of my unexpectedness, I had made all kinds of preparations in the previous twenty years, but I had never made arrangements for this, and at that time, I was helpless at all. ”

"In fact, this truth is not difficult to see, in this sword mound, there is a sword divided into yin and yang, and it is also life and creation, where can a dying person arrange it?"

Hearing this, Wang Lu finally understood: "So you asked for help from others?" It's rare, with your temperament, you are single-handedly in the war and the catastrophe, and you are willing to bow to others when you die? ”

The Sword Demon said coldly: "Joke, how can I, Zhong Shengming, bow my head to others in my life?" They approached me and offered me a deal. ”

"Oh? Qualified to make deals with you on terms, not ordinary people, right? ”

"Hmph, if a group of incompetent people come to take advantage of the fire, even if I am seriously injured and dying, I can make their souls scatter. In fact, it was a group of earth immortals who proposed a deal to me. ”

"Earth Immortals? What is that? ”

The Sword Demon sneered and said, "It's just a group of foolish people who don't know how to lift, you will know the specific situation in the future, I'll continue to talk about it first." They approached me and promised to help me with the erosion of willpower, and in return, I would do them a favor. ”

"Guarding the grave?"

"It's pretty much the same, they want me to pick a successor for them."

"Heir? What to inherit? What conditions need to be met? ”

The sword demon said: "I can't remember the specific conditions for a long time, in fact, they didn't say so much, after all, as a gatekeeper, I have to go through a transformation of life and death, and the primordial spirit will gather and disperse once, and there will inevitably be a lack of memory, so only one basic condition was established at that time, and if it is met, it can be used as a successor." And as long as I can elect this person, I will be completely free. ”

Speaking of this, the Sword Demon further explained: "In order to prevent me from keeping my promise, this sword mound was built with restrictions, and until a suitable successor is found, this layer is absolutely closed, and you can only enter and not exit. ”

Wang Lu nodded: "And then?" ”

"And then?" The Sword Demon sneered, "Then everything will be messed up, according to their plan, I should wake up in decades, at most hundreds of years, and there are enough materials left in the sword mound for me to destroy the Sword God, and the Yuan God will be unified again, and then as long as I try my best to find a successor for them who meets the conditions, everyone will be happy." But in fact, I woke up tens of thousands of years later, and the materials for my use have also disappeared, if it weren't for your uninvited guests, hehe......"

Wang Lu asked: "Since the value of our existence is so high, what can we say about the matter of giving up?" ”

The Sword Demon said, "Isn't that a matter of course? When you wake up and find that everything you planned is a mess, can you expect it to work as usual in the next step? I'll find a successor for him, what if the sword mound still won't let him go? Therefore, instead of pinning my hopes on the incompetent arrangement of a group of incompetent earth immortals, it is better for me to go out in person, but with the state of the primordial gods, it is not easy to break through the prohibition of the earth immortal level......"

Wang Lu was silent for a while: "And Senior Sister and I happened to provide you with an opportunity. ”

"Yes, although the cultivation realm is still shallow, but an ethereal spirit root and a sword spirit root are the top qualifications, even though this realm is isolated from the Great Dao, but my Yuan Shen has already carried its own Dao, once it is fused with your physical body, it will be able to break through the difficulties in less than three years. Although the Earth Immortal Realm is clever, I don't care about it. ”

Wang Lu asked, "What about now?" ”

"Now?" The Sword Demon smiled, "Isn't it obvious that the situation is good, you are lucky enough to meet the conditions to become an inheritor, and according to the prohibition here, I can't make a move against a qualified inheritor...... So count yourself in luck. ”

Wang Lu asked, "What are the criteria for the eligibility of the heir?" ”

"It's very simple, I just look good to the eye." The Sword Demon said indifferently.

"......" Wang Lu was silent for a long time, and he couldn't find a slot—because there were too many slots

First of all, just look pleasing to the eye? What is this standard? The group of earth immortals who made a contract with him at the beginning had their brains in water?

Secondly, looking pleasing to the eye is qualified, that is to say, for a long time before, you were in a state of looking at me unpleasantly, right? That's really a shame that you can put on a posture of a valley hero to teach me a meritorious service—of course, it seems that it is really uneasy and kind to teach the Heaven Breaking Divine Sword now.

And most importantly, now that I'm suddenly qualified, does it mean that you suddenly look at me pleasing to the eye? And to say that it is nothing more than that you were forced into a desperate road by me, tsk, can the test of life and death shake a person's aesthetics so easily? This is too greedy for life and afraid of death, right?

Then, I am qualified now, which means that you are pleasing to my eyes now, but you are sneering and shaking your head for a while, it looks like you are not sharing the sky with me, how can it be half pleasing to the eye?

Or is the essence of Baili Sword Demon tsundere?

And seeing Wang Lu's silence, the Sword Demon also guessed what he was thinking.

"To me, your ethereal roots, your incomprehensible skills, your crooked ideas, are interesting, but they are only interesting. I have practiced for thousands of years, and I have seen so many things. ”

Speaking of this, the Sword Demon paused: "However, there are only a handful of people who can drive me to a dead end for thousands of years. I, Zhong Shengming, have been uninhibited all my life, but I have my respect for the strong. If you can do this, you can barely get into my eyes...... Whether I want it or not, rules are rules, not rules set for me by others, but rules that I have adhered to for thousands of years of sword cultivation. ”

"As for fear of death?" The Sword Demon smiled, and there was no more excuse.

"Let's get back to the point, now that you have become the inheritor, you have the right to know the truth about this sword shrine, that is, what you will inherit."

Wang Lu nodded, looking forward to it.

According to what the sword demon said, before he died, he came to the door with a group of earth immortals, although he had never heard of the word earth immortals, but Wang Wen Shengyi, can bring the word immortal, it is not a weak miscellaneous fish, about below the true immortal, above the mortal world? What's more, the Sword Demon also admitted that it was a group of strong people who made him take it seriously, and he could set up powerful formations and prohibitions such as sword division yin and yang, and his strength was undoubted.

And how precious will the things left by such a group of people be? After all, even Zhong Shengming is just the gatekeeper of the inheritance

"I haven't seen the specific content of the heritage either, but look at this and you'll understand everything...... But before I do that, I have to confirm it with you. ”

The sword demon's expression was extremely serious, and that serene gaze even made Wang Lu suspect that he might turn his face and deny people at any time, and kill the killer.

Of course, the Sword Demon didn't do that, but asked a simple question: "Are you sure you want to know all this?" Now you still have a chance to give up - I won't let that make you look bad all of a sudden. ”

Wang Lu groaned, and the Sword Demon said again: "With your ability, you shouldn't fail to see the question here: What is the Earth Immortal?" They have the power to make me agree, why do you never know that they exist? And they left a rich legacy, is it really just a kind cultivation of future generations? ”

After speaking, the Sword Demon pondered for a while, and added: "There are some things I can't say directly, but I want you to think about it seriously, such as such a question: Back then, the demon head of Baili Prefecture was raging and stealing the sky, so it was suppressed by the Nine Heavens Firmament, and the path of the monk's ascension was almost cut off. ”

"...... do you mean?"

Wang Lu was shocked in his heart, but before he could ask the question, the Sword Demon had already bypassed the topic

"So, are you sure you want to know all this?"

Wang Lu did not hesitate at all: "Of course"

"Okay." The Sword Demon smiled again, and in his smile he couldn't tell whether it was relief or sarcasm, he waved his hand, and summoned a piece of brilliance projected in Wang Lu's worldly realm.

It was a map, and it was a very well-made three-dimensional map, which looked like a multi-story underground building...... Not surprisingly, it should be this ancient sword mound.

"This is the sword shrine we are in." The Sword Demon confirmed Wang Lu's guess, and then waved his hand again.

The next moment, a hundredfold light bloomed, and a net appeared in front of Wang Lu's eyes.

A large and spectacular net that almost covers the horizon. And the three-dimensional map of the sword mound that I saw just now happened to step on a point on the network.

And the nodes similar to the sword mound are as many as stars, and there are countless of them.

"These are your inheritances." The Sword Demon said lightly, while watching Wang Lu's reaction with interest, "Of course, the premise is that you can find the key to open the door. ”
