Chapter 34: A Clever Chess Player

"Wait"

When Wang Lu tried to activate the Spirit Sword Heavenly Rune and immediately returned to the mountain gate, the Sword Demon finally couldn't maintain a calm posture and said in a cold voice: "Wait"

Wang Lu sighed in his heart: You finally can't hold it anymore?

"What advice do you have, Lord Sword Demon?"

Sword Demon Twilight glanced at the mustard seed bag in Wang Lu's hand: "The spirit rune in your bag should be an emergency spirit talisman given by the sect to teleport back to the mountain at a critical moment?" If you rashly use it here, you are not afraid of causing space shocks and being torn into powder? “

Wang Lu said: "Since it is a thing given by the sect to the disciple to save his life, there is naturally a way to save his life, theoretically, no matter what kind of danger he is in, even the abyss of the Demon Realm, or the Xiyi Continent cannot block the transmission effect of the spirit rune."

"Oh? How miraculous is it? The Sword Demon was amazed.

Wang Lu explained: "After the end of the Dharma era, although the strength of the monks was not as good as before, many techniques were much better than those 10,000 years ago. ”

"This is an eye-opener, can you take a look at it from the old man?"

Wang Lu just smiled at this, since Yuntai Mountain was designed by the elders of the Imperial Beast Sect, no matter how stupid Wang Lu was, he should remember that there are some things that can't be shown to people casually.

"Well, since you're on your guard, forget it. You are so confident in your own spirit rune, then just try, but I also remind you, don't underestimate the power of the sword shrine, if it is so easy to get out of trouble, why do you think I want to stay until now? ”

Wang Lu was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "If the spirit rune is available, I will remember to bring you next time." ”

Then, Wang Lu really activated his mana and lit up the Spirit Sword Heavenly Talisman in the mustard seed bag.

The current situation is completely out of control, and every conversation with the Sword Demon makes him feel like he is on the edge of an abyss, and behind the seemingly bland dialogue is actually a dark current. Rescuing the senior sister is important, but it's not worth putting yourself on the hook, coming to this point is already considered benevolent and righteous, it's time to get out of the way and leave.

The only question is, can you make it yourself?

At the moment when the Spirit Sword Heavenly Rune was lit, the vast sea of bitterness set off a monstrous wave, and the black fog tide rolled hideously, being repeatedly torn by the invisible force, and the Do'er Boat in the black tide was full of cracks in an instant, and the collapse was imminent. The little bit of light where the sword demon was located was also greatly squeezed and drastically reduced.

At the same time, Wang Lu's heart sank, and he knew that things were going to be bad.

The Spirit Sword Heavenly Rune is indeed infinitely wonderful, but its energy is limited after all. The cost of breaking the spatial barrier and building a teleportation channel is not trivial, so the Tianfu is made with great care, so as to use every part of the force in practice. When it actually takes effect, the user will simply disappear in silence and will never have any unnecessary changes. If the energy is expended on causing the waves of the Bitter Sea, it means that the teleportation has failed.

Sure enough, a moment later, the huge waves in the sea of bitterness gradually subsided, and Wang Lu held a few remnants of the Heavenly Rune in his hand, and he was still in front of the Sword Demon, and did not appear on the Spirit Sword Mountain.

Wang Lu silently closed his eyes and sighed.

At this time, it's useless to say anything, complaining that the master is not powerful? Regret that you shouldn't have rushed to the depths? Speculate on the principle of the failure of the Celestial Rune? What's the use? All changes should be taken into account when making decisions......

So now, it's time to start the plan.

The failure of the Celestial Rune, although shocking, is not particularly unexpected, and the worst expectation is even worse than that, and the next ...... It's not that I don't have to play.

And just when Wang Lu was about to regroup, the Sword Demon finally spoke.

"You underestimate this ancient sword mound, your spirit sword talisman does have its own uniqueness, it can actually cause the sea of bitterness to boil, in my time, the most brilliant talisman master could not draw such a spirit talisman, but no matter how clever it is, it is also a means of the mortal world, and it will not take effect in the tomb of the true immortal."

Speaking of this, the Sword Demon paused for a moment and said, "If you want to escape from the prohibition of this place, unless you have the means of a true immortal, you can only obtain the approval of your master." ”

"Master?"

Hearing this, Wang Lu finally realized a problem.

The ancient sword mound, as the name suggests, is a tomb of swords, but it is not difficult to find that what is buried in it does not seem to be as simple as a sword......

"The owner of this place is named Zhong Shengming."

Hearing this, Wang Lu's heart was shocked: Zhong Shengming? The Baili Sword God specially recorded in the familiar name "The Legend of Baili Flying Ascension" is not a true immortal, the one who is better than a true immortal?

It is rumored that Zhong Shengming, the Baili Sword God, was a powerful sword cultivator who crisscrossed Kyushu 16,000 years ago, and the Chaos Breaking Heaven Divine Sword he cultivated was invincible all over the world, and he was a famous figure in that era when there were many strong men. Wang Lu clearly remembered that it was recorded in the biography of Bai Li Feisheng: Zhong Shengming had never tasted defeat in his life, but he had never fought against some of the most prestigious and powerful monks in the world, and what really made him famous was the catastrophe that broke the sky.

More than 20,000 years ago, there was a demon in Baili Prefecture who tried to steal the heavenly machine, causing the wrath of the heavenly earthquake, the heavenly catastrophe continued, the lives of Baili were devastated, the earth's veins withered, and the vitality could not be recovered for more than a thousand years. Later, the heavenly tribulation dissipated, but the nine-day sky is still particularly gloomy in Baili Prefecture, and the monk's cultivation path here is far more bumpy than elsewhere, each level has heaven and earth to be difficult with it, and after going through the difficult cultivation to the Mahayana period, the catastrophe of ascension faced is far stronger than elsewhere, the normal monk is one nineteen heavenly tribulation, two nine heavenly tribulations, but here is the beginning of the thirty-nine heavenly tribulation, the monk can hardly fly, so that Baili Prefecture has almost become a forbidden place for cultivating immortals. When Zhong Shengming turned the Baili leyline for his own use, he used the Divine Sword to trigger the Four Nine Heavenly Tribulations, and the sword qi broke through the night, shaking away the haze of ten thousand years in one fell swoop, opening up the light for future generations of monks. After nearly 10,000 years of depression, Baili Prefecture soon radiated extraordinary vitality, and then for thousands of years, three true monarchs flew here one after another, second only to Zhongzhou in Kyushu.

However, after the catastrophe, Zhong Shengming himself was fatally injured and soon disappeared. Later generations commented on this person, all of them deeply regretted, with the strength he showed when he broke the heavens, he was not a true immortal, but better than a true immortal, if he could successfully survive the tribulation, I am afraid that he would also be a famous one in the immortal world

In the cross of Baili Feisheng, Zhong Shengming fell silently, he was lonely all his life, vigorous when he was born, and it was normal to be silent when he died, but he didn't expect him to build such a tomb before he died

"This tomb was built before the final battle, and it was supposed to be used by him to bury his mantle and find his successor. But after the catastrophe of breaking the sky, Zhong Shengming was severely injured by the Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, the Jade Mansion collapsed, and the Yuan Shen collapsed. He sealed himself in the deepest part of the tomb, connected to the deep leylines, and then the primordial gods dispersed into tens of thousands of remnant souls to drive away the heavenly calamity. Every remnant soul is connected to the earth's leylines, absorbing the creation of heaven and earth, and if it is favored by the heavens, it may be expected to be able to restore its cohesion as before. The work of this life and creation, maybe it can be done, maybe it can't, even if it can be done, I don't know how long later, Zhong Shengming was just doing the last fight in his life, but maybe it was really his life that he shouldn't die, or maybe he was blessed with the immeasurable merit of opening up the road to immortal ascension for the thousands of monks in Baili Prefecture, in short, after more than 10,000 years, the tens of millions of remnant souls were finally provoked to come to life, began to devour each other and condensed, and gradually recovered to their original state. ”

Speaking of this, the Sword Demon paused for a moment, looked at Wang Lu with interest, and said with a smile: "However, even Zhong Shengming himself didn't expect that in this process, a group of uninvited guests were ushered in, leading things out of control. ”

Seeing Wang Lu frowning when he heard this, the sword demon smiled even more: "This life and creation, the method of resurrection from the dead, has a very fatal flaw, tens of millions of remnant souls absorb external forces to condense into one, during which there will inevitably be impurities involved, this impurity is also related to Zhong Shengming's cultivation of the exercises, he has cultivated swords all his life and moved forward bravely, any evil demon has been suppressed or killed inside and outside, and he is not allowed to approach, but after he dies, all kinds of demons will find him." In order to avoid becoming an evil demon when he was resurrected, Zhong Shengming made arrangements before his death, he buried the sword division of yin and yang array in this tomb, dividing tens of thousands of remnant souls into good and evil factions, and then created a guardian to suppress the evil demons. When the Immortal Creation reaches its ultimate level, it is convenient to drive the Guardian to refine the demons, take their soul essence into one, and resurrect from the dead. Although the arrangement during the period is not perfect, after the passage of ten thousand years, the organs are more rigid and rotten, but they are still in play for the most part. It's a pity, it's a pity, just as it was about to be completed, outsiders came to this tomb, rashly smashed the guardian who suppressed the demons, and released a certain demon who was bound to die

Hearing this, Wang Lu suddenly remembered something.

Previously, during the Eight Trials Trial, Wang Lu was suspicious because of the strange cold voice, and guessed that there was a mastermind behind the sword mound, but after thinking about it carefully, that voice first appeared in the second level, the Attacking Guardian, that is......

It is self-inflicted, and you cannot live

After taking a deep breath, Wang Lu laughed self-deprecatingly, this trip to the Taigu Sword Shrine is really stupid, from the very beginning, the four factions of people were played with by others on the applause This sword demon only used one sentence, and let everyone go all the way in the wrong direction, let you be the true legend of Shengjing Xianmen, the chief of Kunlun Immortal Mountain, or the super professional adventurer, all of them were kept in the dark, like marionettes being wantonly driven

However, instead of being shocked by the truth, it is more important to think about such a question: What is the purpose of this sword demon to undisguise the truth this time?

"I want you to do me a favor, and at the same time do yourself a favor. As I said just now, where you and I are located, it is the deepest area of the sword mound, and it is completely blocked, and if you want to get out of the predicament, you can only get the permission of the original owner. And although I am incarnated by Zhong Shengming's remnant soul, my state is not complete at this time, and I can't be regarded as myself, so I don't have the permission to open the seal, and if I want to get the permission, there is only one way. ”

As he spoke, the Sword Demon waved his hand, and a crystal mirror appeared in front of him.

In the mirror, the figure of an old man with the same beard and white hair was reflected, his appearance and clothes were no different from those of the sword demon, only the words on the back of the robe changed from a demon to a god.

Obviously, this is Zhong Shengming's other remnant soul, Zhong Shengming, the sword god who symbolizes the square.

And beside the Sword God, Wang Lu saw a long-lost figure.

Senior sister, Zhu Shiyao
