Chapter 40

Thundered......

The thunder twists and turns, winding and falling, and is splitting on a towering ancient tree. After the thunder, a light suddenly lit up, and then dimmed for a moment, hidden in the rain curtain.

Li Zhan's soul actually traveled through the space and suddenly appeared in front of Niu Tianya, the purple light of the long sword in his hand shattered, and the shadow of the ten thousand sword returned to one, and the long sword in his hand stabbed towards Niu Tianya.

Niu Tianya didn't expect that his body could also fold the space and pass through, so he hurriedly raised the Tianheng Knife to meet it.

Li Zhan Soul stabbed out with a sword, the space was distorted, and Niu Tianya's war knife actually slipped from the side, brushed shoulders with the long sword, and slashed towards the void.

"Niu Tianya. Below, Qianqian, who was fighting in front of him, exclaimed, like a red cloud rising into the sky, and the long sword shone brightly, wanting to stop Li Zhan's soul. However, the distance was too far, so he could only watch the purple long sword shoot towards Niu Tianya's chest.

"Bastard, die. "In the sky, suddenly a voice came, vast and misty, vast and vast in all directions.

Li Zhan was slightly stunned, as if he had been shocked, the long sword in his hand had pierced the placket of Niu Tianya's clothes, and the tip of the sword was on his clothes, but it was frozen there, and he could no longer advance for half a minute, raising his head and looking up at the sky.

The sky was still gray, the wind was howling and roaring, and the north wind was raining and wetting the whole world.

Li Zhan Soul frowned slightly, condensed his gaze slightly, and vaguely saw a black dot flying down for nine days, smashing straight towards him.

"Don't you want to run?" Niu Tianya was also stunned on the spot, Li Zhan's soul sword blade was cold, it had already touched his chest, and Sen Ran's murderous aura cut through his skin like a sharp blade, but he couldn't advance half a point. In the midst of the shock, an old voice sounded in his ears, and even some schadenfreude.

"Let's go. Niu Tianya shouted, stepped on the heavenly monument and rose with his strength, and his body was like lightning shooting into the distance. A red cloud floated behind him, just in time to catch his falling figure, like a streamer disappearing into the sky.

Behind Niu Tianya, a huge strange gourd came from the sky and hit Li Zhan's soul directly.

Rumble......

With a loud bang, the rain curtain splashed, and the master who was as strong as the Mahayana period also flew out upside down, and the purple light on his body was dispersed again, revealing his body. This time, everyone clearly saw that a trace of blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth.

"Who are you, come out and fight? Being blasted away by the gourd, Li Zhan finally regained his ability to act, and the purple light once again enveloped his whole body, his eyes were fixed on the strange gourd, and his body swelled with high battle intent.

Above the gourd, he felt a vast and vast power, that kind of power, from the fairy world!

......

The gourd didn't reply, it still floated in the air, spinning slowly, and the light around it was dim, as if it could be extinguished at any moment.

"Hide your head and shrink your tail!" Li Zhan snorted coldly, the purple long sword was raised high, and his body moved and shot through the space towards the gourd again.

Qiang ......

In the crisp sound of the sword, the long sword swept by, and the light around the gourd was instantly extinguished and dissipated into the air.

Reiki Condensation?

Li Zhan's soul gaze condensed and swept downward. Being able to condense a magic weapon with a powerful aura to attack is a means that only the fairy world has.

Eyes swept over, and the people below were dazed, looking at the sky, obviously not knowing why the strange gourd smashed Li Zhan's soul with great momentum, but disappeared inexplicably.

"Fourth Uncle, those two people ran away, let's chase them immediately. Mo Xiangtian also finished breathing, felt much better, and flew up into the air with the light, bowing slightly to Li Zhan's soul.

"Go back. Li Zhan's soul returned to coldness, and his voice fell with purple light and disappeared in place.

"What's the matter, Senior Brother?" Yun Feng was a little confused, why did the Fourth Senior Uncle, who was still determined to win just now, suddenly give up, that Niu Tianya is carrying the Supreme Treasure Xuantianjian.

Mo Xiangtian didn't answer, his gaze fell to the direction where Li Zhan's soul disappeared, and inexplicable emotions flashed in his eyes.

"Go back, two senior brothers. Ling'er didn't know why, but he didn't dare to ask, and said to Mo Xiangtian and Li Zhan.

"Yes. Mo Xiangtian nodded, and three rays of light shot into the distance. A vigorous battle for the treasure has also come to an end, and tomorrow, the rivers and lakes will be stormy again.

"What, Tian'er, do you say it again?" In the main hall of the Ancient Sword Academy, a man who was about fifty years old with slightly gray temples looked slightly excited, looking at Mo Xiangtiandao.

Mo Xiangtian glanced at Yun Feng and Ling'er before bowing down and said: "Senior Brother Yun and Senior Sister Gu were also present at the time, and they all saw it with their own eyes, that Liu Renjie was not inferior in his mouth, and he was rude to Senior Sister Gu, the disciple was angry, and he started to do it, that Liu Renjie was invincible, he shook his hand and shot a hidden weapon, the disciple blocked with a sword, but accidentally stabbed into Niu Tianya's shoulder, Niu Tianya was furious, and Liu Renjie besieged the disciple, the disciple and the junior brother and sister fought hard to kill Liu Renjie, and that Niu Tianya also fled. ”

"Why don't you come back and report? That Niu Tianya slaughtered the master, and he has a Xuantianjian, and he is the public enemy of the world. The middle-aged man said with a slight anger.

Mo Xiangtian glanced at Ling'er, his eyes flashed with a hint of worry, and then he said: " The disciple asked Senior Sister Gu to go back to the door and tell the teachers that he and Senior Brother Yun continued to track, but Senior Sister Gu met the Fourth Senior Uncle halfway, and the Fourth Senior Uncle heard about this and came to the scene in person, and the disciple and Senior Brother Yun had also stopped Niu Tianya and was fighting with him, but he didn't want Niu Tianya to have Xuantianjian, although his skills were not high, but it was strange and abnormal, the disciple and Senior Brother Yun couldn't fight hard, and the Fourth Uncle personally took action, but a strange gourd flew out of the sky, injuring the Fourth Uncle, Niu Tianya and the woman in red also took the opportunity to escape, and the disciple wanted to chase, but was stopped by the Fourth Uncle, so he came back to report to the master。 ”

It turned out that the man in his fifties was Mo Jiannan, the head of the Ancient Sword Academy and Mo Xiangtian's father. It's just that the rules of the Ancient Sword Academy are very strict, and even Mo Xiangtian is no exception, except in private, he always calls himself a disciple.

"Ling'er, go and call the war spirit. Mo Jiannan was slightly displeased and said to Gu Ling'er.

"Master, if there is nothing wrong, the disciple will retire. Mo Xiangtian was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Mo Jiannan to attach so much importance to it, he just wanted to participate in the arrogant and stinky fart who usually refused to point out his Li Zhan Soul, and immediately said when he heard the words.

"You all stay, Ling'er, and you come back too. Mo Jiannan glanced at Mo Xiangtian and said.

"Yes, Uncle Chief. Gu Linger was innocent and innocent, didn't think much about it, and was about to turn around when she heard a voice from outside the hall, "No need, I'm here myself." ”

Mo Xiangtian's face changed slightly, he didn't expect Li Zhan Soul to come so quickly, and glanced at Yun Feng and his gaze fell on Gu Ling'er. There was a faint concern.

"Senior Brother Li, come in. Mo Jiannan's voice fell, and a purple figure flashed, and Li Zhan's soul was still purple, standing in the center of the hall, cold and arrogant.

"Senior brother's injuries are fine. Mo Jiannan looked at Li Zhan with a friendly smile on his face and said.

"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine. Li Zhan's soul didn't move, and he didn't even glance at Mo Jiannan.

Mo Jiannan's face remained unchanged, and he still smiled kindly: "It's okay, junior brother, just now I heard Ling'er and the three of you say that you personally stopped Niu Tianya, but you were injured by a strange gourd, I don't know what magic weapon can hurt you." ”

Mo Jiannan's words were very skillful, but he changed Mo Xiangtian's dictation to Ling'er, and those who didn't pay attention couldn't hear the small changes at all, but it was a different situation in Li Zhan's ears. The things that his apprentice said, even if they are different from the facts, are also things within the branches, and cleverly avoid conflicts between the branches.

Hearing this, Li Zhan turned around and faced Mo Xiangtian and the others: "You go out." ”

Mo Xiangtian's face changed slightly, although he didn't want to meet Li Zhansoul, he couldn't get used to Li Zhansoul's actions. Although he called Mo Jiannan his master, he was Mo Jiannan's son after all, and he was the first disciple of the second generation of the Ancient Sword Academy.

Seeing this, Yun Feng bowed slightly: "Yes, the head of the master, the fourth uncle, the disciple has retired." After that, he turned his head and glanced at Mo Xiangtian and walked out of the hall.

"The head of the master, the master, the disciple retires. Gu Linger also gave up.

Seeing this, Mo Xiangtian bowed his head and said, "Master, Fourth Uncle, the disciple retires." "Say goodbye and go out.

It wasn't until Mo Xiangtian's figure disappeared outside the main hall that the ablation on Mo Jiannan's face was completely restricted, and he turned around to the chair, his eyes condensed and looked directly at Li Zhan's soul: "Say it." ”

Li Zhan Soul didn't make any moves, still standing in the center of the main hall, and finally spit out two words in his cold mouth: "Immortal Realm." ”

"What?" Mo Jiannan was startled, his expression that had just calmed down immediately fluctuated, and he stood up from his chair and walked towards Li Zhan Soul.

Outside the main hall, Gu Linger and Yun Feng saw Mo Xiangtian come out to greet him, Yun Feng was just about to speak, but was swept away by Mo Xiangtian's eyes, and immediately understood, turned to Gu Linger and said: "Senior Sister Gu, you are also tired today, it is better to go back to rest early, Senior Brother and I will also go back to meditate and breathe, and we will take you down the mountain to play tomorrow." ”

Hearing this, Gu Linger looked up at the sky, at this moment the wind and rain stopped, revealing a dark blue sky, the sunset had already sunk, and only the sunset released the last splendor of the sky.

"Well, the two senior brothers also practiced earlier. Gurlinger nodded, and turned to walk towards her cabin.

Smiling and watching Gu Ling'er walk away, Yun Feng put away his smile and turned his head to look at Mo Xiangtian: "Senior brother, you ......"

Seeing Gu Ling'er walking away, Yun Feng turned to look at Mo Xiangtian: "Senior brother, what happened to you just now?"

"Hmph. Mo Xiangtian snorted coldly and glanced at the main hall, "Li Zhan Soul is also too arrogant, he actually scolded us to our face, as a disciple of the Ancient Sword Academy, he even asked us to discuss and participate in anything with my father, but he was so arrogant, did he think that the Ancient Sword Academy belonged to his family?"

"Shhhh Yun Feng was shocked, and hurriedly looked left and right to hold Mo Xiangtian.

"What are you afraid of? don't think that his cultivation is great, this ancient sword academy is still from the Mo family. "Mo Xiangtian grew up in a superior environment since he was a child and was pampered. Especially when he was crowned at the age of eighteen, almost all the division commanders gave valuable gifts, even the Cloud Sword Sect specially sent people to send generous gifts, but Li Zhan Soul was so indifferent as if he didn't know, he didn't take any action, and he didn't even attend the banquet set by Mo Jiannan himself, Mo Xiangtian didn't say it, but silently remembered it in his heart.

Yun Feng's eyes flashed with an imperceptible gleam, and he smiled: "I just heard that the fourth senior uncle's cultivation is profound, and he is close to the head of the ......" "Fart." Mo Xiangtian was furious, and took a deep look at the direction of the main hall, "No matter how powerful he is, he has never thought about his father, his father has ...... in his hand" Speaking of this, he suddenly realized something, stopped his mouth, looked at Yun Feng coldly, and faintly revealed a murderous aura, "Don't mention him in front of me in the future, otherwise ......" After that, he turned around and walked away.

"Yes, yes, I don't dare in the future, senior brother is good. Yun Feng was sincerely frightened, but he bowed down to see Mo Xiangtian away, but an imperceptible smile flashed on his low face.

The sky gradually darkened, and a red light flashed, piercing the sky and shooting into the distance, it was Niu Tianya and Qianqian who fled for their lives.

"Niu Tianya, are you okay. In the light, Qianqian looked at Niu Tianya, a little worried, but there was a little more indescribable.

"It's fine. Niu Tianya replied lightly and looked into the distance.

Today's battle touched him too much, especially when facing Li Zhan's soul, although Niu Tianya was ready to die, but when that moment really came, when he saw his battle knife deflected, and Li Zhan's long sword pierced his clothes and approached his heart, the fear of death still spread to his whole body in an instant. At that moment, he thought of his parents who were far away in the world, remembered the ten years he had traveled through, and more importantly, he remembered the heart and moon that accompanied him all the way through ups and downs.

At that moment, he felt a sense of powerlessness for the first time, and remembered many unfinished things: he hadn't found Xinyue yet, he hadn't found the origin of the Heavenly Monument and the war knife, he hadn't completed the entrustment of the Guwu Mark, he hadn't saved enough money to go to the Qinglou to pick up girls, he hadn't left a seed in this world, and he hadn't ...... yet.

Strength, power! Niu Tianya shouted in his heart, but he was extremely calm on the surface.

He cultivates ancient martial arts skills, starting from the broken pill, every step forward not only requires long-term penance, but also the sublimation of the soul, the 'enlightenment' of the way, the understanding of the heavens, and his eternal life has no possibility of reaching the realm of great success. This also means that every time he takes a step forward, he has to pay a lot more than others, and at the same time, he also gains more strength!

Everything must be found from the root, and the Heavenly Firmament is the foundation of cultivation.

Niu Tianya stood above the light, his body was straight, his hands were open, as if embracing heaven and earth, he raised his head and closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The cold air after the autumn rain shook his spirits, and his mind was much clearer, and he felt the night breeze blowing in his ears before he slowly opened his eyes.

On the horizon, the last touch of sunset has receded, the original blue sky is getting deeper and deeper, and after the autumn rain, it is even more lofty and vast. Twinkling stars dot the sky, like white children on a wide chessboard, connected from afar.

At the foot, the ten thousand high mountains are only vaguely outlined under the outline of the night, and the winding river is still rolling, galloping day and night, like a war horse galloping, thousands of armies fighting, low and long.

"That Mo Xiangtian's skill is profound, I can't imagine that I have become a master of the Ancient Sword Academy and return to the sect, if it weren't for you stepping on the Strange Heavenly Monument, I'm afraid I would be in trouble today. Qianqian sighed slightly and said.

"Mo Xiangtian's cultivation is indeed high, but it is a little vain, and the Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Sect seems to be magnificent, but it is strong on the outside and dry in the middle, and it has nothing to show for it. Niu Tianya said and remembered the scene of the day.

Playing against Mo Xiangtian during the day, he felt the vanity of his opponent. Although the sword is extremely strong, it lacks stamina every time it comes into contact, and it is not even as good as the woman in purple. Although the woman in purple looks harmless to humans and animals, her foundation is extremely solid, and although her moves are not gorgeous, she has a long stamina for each attack.

The heavy sword of the Ancient Sword Academy is not rebuilt, and if you think about it, Mo Xiangtian also took too many elixirs to forcibly improve his skills, but as everyone knows, this is tantamount to self-destruction of his future and a waste of his high talent.

However, the return of ten thousand swords is indeed a peerless swordsmanship, relying on its own spiritual power to attract the long sword, conjuring up eight lightsabers, and actually relying on the power of the eight lightsabers to detain the aura of heaven and earth and condense into a Taiji diagram, attracting more powerful aura, such a peerless swordsmanship, the founder must be the real amazing talent, the eight lightsabers are divided into eight directions, representing all things in the world, and the eight-colored light is secretly combined with the five elements, which is really a miracle.

Eight-colored light, the number of the five elements? Niu Tianya's mind flashed, and the second sentence of Tiancangjue automatically emerged: Therefore, there are five thieves in the sky, and those who see them are prosperous.

There are five thieves in the sky, what are the five thieves?

Niu Tianya clung to the fleeting clear aura and pondered.

The number of the five thieves is secretly combined with the five elements, if it is the five elements, what is stolen by gold, wood, water, fire and earth?

Niu Tianya closed his eyes and carefully recalled every detail of the Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Sect. The ancient sword is eight points, but the eight rays of light are combined with the number of the five elements, the five elements are bound by the aura and the Tai Chi is born, and the Tai Chi absorbs the aura and makes up for the five elements, so that the sucking and the counter-supplement, the eight light swords are connected into one, gathering energy to return to the ancient sword, and moving a powerful offensive.

The night wind was blowing, the clothes were flying, Niu Tianya was independent in the wind, and suddenly laughed, and shouted in his mouth: "I understand, I understand, I finally understand the meaning of the second sentence." ”

Behind, Qianqian also saw a broken temple and said, "There is a broken temple, let's go down." With that, the light pressed down and fell into front of the temple.

Niu Tianya muttered to himself, like crazy: "I finally understand, it turns out that this is the case, the predecessors of the Ancient Sword Academy are really amazing, the ancient masters, the ancient masters!"

"What a masterpiece of the ancients, what crazy are you. Seeing that Niu Tianya ignored him, Qianqian said angrily.

"Therefore, there are five thieves in the sky, and those who see them are prosperous. It turned out to be talking about the five elements, the five elements and the five thieves, so appropriate, worthy of the first law of the ages. Niu Tianya ignored Qianqian at all, and walked into the broken temple like sleepwalking.

"What the hell are you talking about. Qianqian's curiosity was aroused, and on the flying sword, he saw Niu Tianya's brows frowning, thinking something, but he didn't expect him to suddenly say so many inexplicable words, and followed up and asked.

The ruined temple is not big, there is only one main hall, but it has long been abandoned, in disrepair, one corner of the eaves has collapsed, revealing the starry sky, the other side is also crumbling, a big red pillar stands tenaciously upright, supporting the entire roof.

In the middle of the broken temple, there is a big Buddha. The big Buddha feet are naked, bend and stretch at will, sit on the futon, the Buddha's body is about two feet, smiling, holding a pu fan in his right hand, his left hand is horizontal in front of his chest, his palm is inward, his four fingers are slightly bent, there is a distance between his thumb and his fingers, it seems that he was originally holding something, but now it is empty.

The table of the Eight Immortals enshrined in front of the Buddha has long since decayed, broken into pieces of wood and scattered to the ground, only a bronze candlestick is intact and fell to the side.

The ruined temple seems to have been visited by no one for a long time, the ground is covered with a thick layer of dust, and the mouth is covered with a thick layer of hay, and it is obvious that passers-by have stayed here.

Niu Tianya has lived in the mountains for six years, he has already tasted the bitterness, and he doesn't care, he went to the corner to sweep away the dust and took out the hay to pave it, Qianqian also picked up the candlestick, and now there is solidified grease in it, he was overjoyed, and he popped up a little spark and lit it and sat next to Niu Tianya.

"Niu Tianya, what did you say just now?" Qianqian glanced at Niu Tianya and couldn't help but speak.

Niu Tianya's mood had already calmed down a lot, he stood up and ran over to pick up the fragments of the wooden table, and picked up a bunch of dead branches to light them to resist the cold of the night before saying: "It's a mantra of exercises, I don't understand, I suddenly figured it out, and I was a little out of shape." ”

It is rare for Niu Tianya to be serious, but Qianqian was a little uncomfortable, and looked at him strangely and said, "What mantra is so difficult? ”

"Therefore, there are five thieves in the sky, and those who see them are prosperous. Niu Tianya didn't hide it, he was already arrogant, and he didn't have the deep view of the sky, so he said it without hesitation, looking at Qianqian with a smile.

"Therefore, there are five thieves in the sky, and those who see them are prosperous? What kind of mantra is this? It seems to have nothing to do with the exercises. Qianqian frowned and thought for a long time, but she couldn't even figure out what the five thieves were, thinking that Niu Tianya was talking nonsense again, and said a little angrily.

"Five thieves, gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Heaven with the five elements of yin and yang to give birth to all things, qi to form, and people are subject to this qi to live and grow, but from the anode to produce yin, congenital into the day after tomorrow, the five elements can not be combined, self-thief, each has its own nature, wood to gold for the thief, gold for the fire for the thief, fire for the water for the thief, water for the earth, soil for the thief, the earth for the thief, is the five thieves of the sky. However, these five thieves, the people do not know about their daily use, and they follow their qi, and they are born and die, and they are born and lived, and they are born and die. If there is a person who sees it, he reverses the creation, reverses the five elements, the gold is wood, and the wood is turned into a vessel; the wood is the earth, and the earth is born and prosperous because of it; the earth is the water, and the water is not pan because of it; the water is the fire, and the fire is not dry because of it; the fire is the gold, and the gold is born because of it; the five thieves are born in the gram, and the five thieves turn into the five treasures, and they are confused, and they return to the original, isn't it prosperous!" Niu Tianya smiled slightly, the sky is broad and profound, if the rivers are not wasted, the eternal flow will be long, and the nature of thousands of people is not bad, and it is not inappropriate to share with it, and he said his understanding in one breath.

"Gold and wood, wood is made of it; wood is born of soil, and soil is born of glory because of it; soil is born of water, and water is not pan because of it; water is fire, and fire is not dry because of it; fire is gold, and gold is born because of it; there is life in the gram, and the five thieves turn into five treasures, and they are confused, and they return to their roots?" The small nose wrinkled, and after a while, he said, "This is the mantra you practiced to break the exercises?

Niu Tianya sighed slightly, thinking that she was fighting against Mo Xiangtian and the three of them in the air today, although she didn't make a move, she was always ready to help below, and she also had to pay attention to the movements of the people around her, the psychological pressure was even greater, and she felt guilty in her heart, and said again: "The meaning of this passage is that the five elements are born to restrain each other, but no matter how Shengke, as long as it is used properly, it can wield great power, and those who live together promote each other, and those who restrain each other are refined into steel, and the key depends on how to use it." ”

"What kind of mantra is this, I haven't said a word about how to practice moves for a long time. Qianqian also understood, but there was a trace of disappointment. Niu Tianya's skill is obviously only in the fusion period, but he can fight against the master of the Yuan Infant Stage, with such strength, she thought that she must have cultivated some peerless divine skill, but she didn't expect it to be like this.

"Who says a mantra must say a move?" A voice came, and outside the hall, a bit of dazzling light suddenly converged, slowly amplified, and condensed into a human form......
