Chapter 175: Basilica Cistern (I)

"The supreme sword technique is naturally to cooperate with the supreme artifact, and everything that the old decay has taught you naturally can't make do. And the demon lord of the world is gradually growing, a thousand miles a day, and soon he will be able to reach the realm of the heavenly demons, if you want to kill the heavenly demons, if it is not for this divine weapon, how can you get your wish?! ”

The virtual old man glared at me with hatred, and I was so frightened that I didn't dare to speak, and I didn't seem to have the slightest room to refute the harsh requirements of the virtual elder. However, what the virtual elder said is completely reasonable, but his requirements are all extremely difficult to reach the pinnacle in the world, whether it is exercises, swordsmanship or even magic weapons, they must be of the highest quality, in fact, these things, just take it out, can glorify the Daomen, and subdue the demons in the world, but the harshness of the virtual elder, I naturally acquiesce, cultivators, when cultivating the multiplication method, this is what every cultivator dreams of, maybe my current situation is also what countless people are pursuing. After a pause, Elder Xu's tone eased slightly: "Now you only have one chance left, that is, to take one step to the Demon Lord of the World, find the Four Heavenly Demon Envoys, and destroy their souls, so that the Demon Lord of the World cannot gather the Seven Demon Yuan Spirits, but to do all this, you can't reach it without the Ziyang Sword......

"Elder Xu, I, I understand!"

I slowly lowered my head and replied with a very firm attitude.

Elder Xu glanced at me deeply, nodded slightly, and said earnestly: "Although it is very difficult to achieve that step, and the burden is too heavy for you, but since you have the destiny of heaven, as a disciple of the Dao Sect, you have to grit your teeth to hold on, you know?" ”

"Yes!"

I nodded his head and agreed.

Setting off again, I seemed to have a lot less to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and more to think about how to find the Ziyang Sword, I glanced at Hu Chong coldly, but seeing that Hu Chong's legs were drifting, and his face was not very good-looking, I couldn't help asking: "Hu Chong, what's wrong with you?" Are you feeling unwell? If we are tired, we can take a break and then go, after all, when we get to Tianchi, we still need your help! ”

"I ...... What if I can't help you? ”

Hu Chong seems to have something on his mind, not a physical problem.

I was stunned, and then I thought of the conversation I had with the virtual old man just now, and he listened to it in his ears, and immediately asked with a smile: "Did the virtual old man's words just now scare you?" ”

"What's it that scares me? This, this is clearly ...... I now know why you agreed to let me follow you to cultivate, and I also understand what you have been doing along the way, it turns out that you are going to fight with the demon lord of the world...... I, I just want to break my head and can't think of you will be this purpose, I knew it was like this, I didn't dare to come to kill me, it's really terrible, fighting with the demon lord of the world, if you are not careful, then the little life may be ......"

In the end, Hu Chong made a look of wiping his neck.

"Don't you think it's worth it to be able to see how to fight with the Demon Lord of the world?"

I immediately smiled and said: "And evil does not prevail over good, it has been like this since ancient times, so you have to have confidence in us, and the fighting method is my business, just let you find the sword, once the sword is found, your task will be completed, whether to go or stay, it is up to you to decide." If you want to do something big in your life, now is the right time, and of course, if you want to continue to be a mediocre ghost hunter, you can choose. ”

After speaking, I looked at Hu Chong quietly, waiting for his reply.

Hu Chong was silent for a moment, and then suddenly grinned: "I'm not a fool, following you masters, even if it's worth going up the knife mountain and going down to the oil pot, I don't want to continue to be a ghost hunter, and I can't leave anything in the short past of my life." If I follow you, I believe I can become a ...... like no other in the world."

"What?"

I asked curiously.

"Master Ghost Hunter!"

Hu Chong said with a look of longing and pride.

"Poof!"

I was almost choked by Hu Chong's words, and immediately said with a wry smile: "That's not a ghost hunter?" In fact, your life could have been rewritten, so why do you have to die in the business of a ghost hunter? If you can take refuge in the Daomen, subdue demons and subdue demons, help the world and save people, live happily, and be at ease, wouldn't it be better than the ghost hunter's business? Young man, you are in charge of your life, you have to think about it! After speaking, I jokingly patted Hu Chong's shoulder, hoping that he could weigh which is more important, whether to be a mediocre ghost hunter for life, or to be a Taoist or even a real person who subdues demons and protects the Tao, as Hu Chong said, he is not a fool, presumably when he decided to follow our cultivation, he has already made a choice in his heart to decide his life!

After some twists and turns, we finally came to the place where the Tianchi stone gate said by Huba, it turned out that the Tianchi stone gate refers to a stone gorge, the stone wall is majestic, the sky is ingenious, like the opening of the two door panels, the stone color is ochre, like the iron casting, the river in the stone gate flows, the water swirls around, the river is turbulent, the waves splash, the cliff is deep in the valley, and the sonic boom is in the valley! Passed through the stone gate of Tianchi, the nearest is the West Small Tianchi, this Tianchi is divided into many places of large and small Tianchi, in addition to the East Xiaotianchi, and there are their own beautiful waterfalls.

In addition, there is also the heavenly realm floating in the air, the Dinghai God Needle, the so-called Dinghai God Needle, in fact, refers to an ancient elm tree, lush, lush branches and leaves, according to legend, the golden hairpin of the Queen Mother was inserted here when subduing the evil dragon, it is rumored that no matter how the water level of the Tianchi rises, it cannot drown the roots of this tree, which is extremely strange.

There are also beautiful women on the east coast, crocodiles on the west coast, the so-called crocodiles, also refer to the long ridge mountain, which is rumored to be transformed by a crocodile, so it is called crocodile mountain, the crocodile head faces south and the body faces north, the crocodile's back is arc-shaped and the peak is raised, and the crocodile's feet are inserted in the lake, lifelike. There is a yellow dragon in the south lake, and there is a reflection in the big bay, which can be called a fairyland on earth, a must in the beautiful scenery. After traveling for a long time, Elder Xu couldn't help but ask Hu Chong, "Have you found anything?" ”

But seeing that Hu Chong didn't respond, but continued to walk forward, I and the old man looked at each other, but we didn't know what to do, so we had to follow Hu Chong and continue to walk forward.

However, not far away, Hu Chong stayed in a place where the reflection of snow peaks and clouds and mountains were embraced, in front of him was the water surface of Tianchi several miles away, and behind him, there was a dense mountain forest and white snow. Here, Hu Cheng said in a deep voice: "For some reason, this water surface seems to be able to isolate my perception ability, just entering the distance beyond the surface of the water, my perception ability fails, this is so strange, I have never encountered this situation before!" ”

I and the virtual old man glanced at each other, and then, the virtual old man bent over and reached out and slowly stuck to the water, and then, the virtual old nodded slightly and said, "Well, I see!" ”

"What's going on?"

I asked in astonishment, and then I also stretched out my hand, and tossed the surface of the water, instantly, I only felt that this water, there was a pure and thick aura, the spirit in the water, it was amazing, then, I looked up at the sky, and then looked around, and immediately said: "Void old, it must be the special location of the heavenly pool here, and the exclusive heavenly essence and earth, accumulated over time, after thousands of years, there is this pool of spiritual water!" ”

"Yes, the spirit of the water has isolated Hu Chong's perception ability, so it will be difficult to do it now, and it is really not easy to find the heavenly and earthly treasures at the bottom of the pool."

The old man stroked his white beard, and then said: "I think it must take some effort to come, if it is so easy to get, how many masters have come here throughout the ages, I am afraid that they have been found a long time ago." It seems that there is only one way to find the following treasures...... The water temperature is okay, ordinary people can withstand it, but the depth of the water is unfathomable, it is estimated that there should be more than dozens of zhang, which is very people can achieve, there are heavy treasures in ancient times, are hidden in dangerous places, so many treasures, most of them are exchanged for life! ”

Although the Void Elder didn't say it explicitly, I already understood the meaning of the Void Elder and immediately nodded and said: "Void Old, I'm willing to give it a try, now that I am at the peak of the fifth layer of the Mixed Yuan Exercises, it must not be a big problem to dive into the water dozens of zhang deep." ”

"You can do it, but Hu Chong is afraid that it is a little difficult, he can dive to a depth of ten zhang, but I am afraid that it will take a lot of effort!"

The Void Elder shook his head and sighed lightly.

"Huh? What do you mean...... I, I'm going down too? ”

Hu Chong was suddenly blindfolded, and immediately said in a trembling voice: "Brother Li Dao went down to hunt for treasures, and I can't help if I go down, not to mention that this spirit in the water has isolated my perception ability, and I can't detect anything!" ”

"I can't feel anything now, but if I go to a place where there is no water, I can feel it."

The old man said with a smile: "In the early years, I heard that there was an underground water palace hidden at the bottom of this heavenly pool, and in the water palace, it was like a cave heaven blessed land, which was a place for ancient immortals to retreat and cultivate, but today's cultivation is not as good as before, and it is difficult for anyone to dive down again." Hu Chong, if you can really find the location of the underground water cistern, not only can you help Xianchu find the Ziyang Sword, maybe you can also get a creation, hehe! But how to choose, it is up to you, whether you fight or retreat, will also determine your future life, whether it is a big rise or a big fall! ”

"Elder Xu, I, can I really find a creation in the Basilica Cistern?"

Hu Chong was shocked and a little curious and asked the old man anxiously.

"The heavenly machine cannot be leaked, there is only so much that the old man can say, and then it is to leak the heavenly machine, you decide for yourself, get the result as soon as possible, once it is late at night, I am afraid that the temperature in this water will drop suddenly, and at that time, I am afraid that if you don't suffocate to death, you may also be frozen to death."

Xu Lao turned around and found a clean place to lean on the stone, took out the wine gourd and poured two sips, and looked at us with a leisurely expression.
