Chapter 125: Giving the Sword
Chapter 126
Because of the opening of the Guardian Sword Gang, a passage was released, so that the sword mountains on both sides of the passage were almost bulldozed, and they were already destroyed.
And the Sword Roaring Palace, which was far away from the passage, could not escape the fate of collapse because the Centipede Demon Emperor broke the seal and rushed out from the bottom of the mountain.
In other words, almost half of the mountains of Shenjian Mountain were destroyed.
These losses are still secondary, and the most distressing thing is the casualties.
The demon sect's army of murderers and demonic beasts was almost wiped out, and only the elephant king and the snake king were rescued by the void.
And the price is that the swordsmen of the Divine Sword Palace lost more than half of them in the fight with the murderers of the Demon Sect. Coupled with the number of people who lost one-third of the entire palace by participating in the demon hunting conference at the beginning, the power of the Divine Sword Palace was less than one-third of what it was in its heyday.
Moreover, almost all of the people who survived were injured, and the broken hands and feet were considered minor injuries, and there were even many people whose Yuan Palace collapsed.
This is not only this, but the disciples of the Immortal Sect who rarely come to the rescue have also suffered a lot of casualties among their own scattered cultivators and bounty hunters.
But no matter what, in this battle, the Divine Sword Palace won. Those who survive should enjoy the fruits of victory.
began to clean the battlefield, and the corpses of the human immortal cultivators were all carefully sealed and transported back to the Divine Sword Palace for a thick burial in the future. And the corpses of the monsters are all dismembered, and all that can be recovered are recovered.
After all, the body of a high-level demonic beast is full of treasures and contains great power. Not only can you refine elixir, but you can also craft weapons and magic weapons.
In front of the ruins of Sword Screaming Mountain, Ah Sheng stood quietly, looking at Xiao Gongzun who was standing in the depths of the Sword Shrine. And Qingyu stood beside him, quietly not speaking.
"Ah Sheng, are you and Qingyu really the only ones who participated in the Demon Hunting Conference come back?" Xiao Gongzun asked in a low voice.
"Except for me and Senior Sister Qingyu, I don't see anyone else. Ah Sheng replied softly.
Hearing Ah Sheng's answer, Xiao Gongzun's shoulders sank, and the breath on his body instantly sank.
"Butβ" Ah Sheng stopped talking.
"But what?"
Ah Sheng thought for a while, the expression on his face condensed slightly, and said, "If you don't see it, it doesn't mean that no one has escaped." Perhaps, there are also people who have escaped, but they have not returned to the palace yet. β
The breath that Xiao Gongzun had just lifted instantly sank again.
Ah Sheng wanted to say that among the scenes he saw, the scene of the deputy palace master and several other palace lords being hung up for public display did not come true. Perhaps, those are not real at all.
But Ah Sheng didn't say it, he didn't want to give Xiao Gongzun hope and let him down.
Among the three palace venerables who entered the Magic Valley, one of them was Xiao Gongzun's best friend, the kind that could be exchanged for his life.
"Ah Sheng, you come down. Xiao Gongzun suddenly shouted.
Ah Sheng glanced at Qingyu beside him, who nodded to him and said, "Go, I'll wait for you here." β
Ah Sheng jumped down, in the depths of the ground, where the Supreme Demon Emperor was sealed, in a huge stone that split in half, you could see obscure and mysterious spell lines, but they had broken and looked very bleak.
Xiao Gongzun called Ah Sheng down, but he didn't speak for a long time. Ah Sheng waited for a while, and then asked, "Lord Gongzun, that big centipede, was it deliberately let go by the Palace Master?"
"Oh?" Xiao Gongzun snorted lightly, turned around and asked, "Why do you think so?"
Ah Sheng frowned and said, "I just think that the big centipede has been sealed for eight hundred years, and it has just come out, and its body has been cut into two pieces by the Demon Slaying Sword. But the palace master's sword technique is all over the sky, how could he let it run away? There is no other explanation except that it was done on purpose. β
Xiao Gongzun's face showed a look of approval, he nodded, and said, "You are right, if the palace master wants to keep that centipede demon emperor, it is not a difficult matter. However, he must take into account the overall situation and use more power to bless the Guardian Sword Gang, which is the foundation of guarding the Divine Sword Palace. As for the Centipede Demon Emperor, it was seriously injured and couldn't recover for a while. Even if it escaped into the human world, at his level, he would not bother to harm ordinary people. β
Ah Sheng suddenly realized, but he didn't know what was going on, and he always had a feeling of uneasiness, but he couldn't say it.
"Ah Sheng, is the sword I gave you before still there?" Xiao Gongzun asked.
"No, it's goneβ" Ah Sheng said with an embarrassed look on his face, "Before participating in the Demon Hunting Conference, when I was cultivating in the Sword Forest, I ran into the Sword Forest and fell. I wanted to pick it up, but it was confiscated by the forest guards. β
"It was confiscated by the forest guards? why?" said Xiao Gongzun in surprise.
"I don't know. Ah Sheng shook his head.
Xiao Gongzun was very puzzled, but he didn't say anything, but took another flying sword out and handed it to Ah Sheng.
"Ah Sheng, what I gave you before was just the sword of the first Gongzun, and this one is his real sword-Rainbow Sword. Xiao Gongzun said.
Ah Sheng looked at the flying sword in Xiao Gongzun's hand, it was a black saber with a black body, and the sword body was not long, only two-thirds the length of an ordinary flying sword.
Ah Sheng took the flying sword, and Xiao Gongzun continued: "When the first palace emperor sealed the Supreme Demon Emperor, he used this sword to pierce the body of the Supreme Demon Emperor. Unexpectedly, after so many years, the magic power of the Supreme Demon Emperor actually soaked the sword body in black. β
Ah Sheng looked at the Rainbow Sword, and in the pitch-black sword body, there was indeed a faint fluctuation of magical power.
In other words, this sword of the first palace lord turned into a magic sword.
"It's no wonder that Lord Gongzun has been searching under the sword mound for so long before, and it turns out that he is looking for this sword. Ah Sheng thought to himself.
"Ah Sheng, keep this sword. Xiao Gongzun said lightly.
"Huh?" Ah Sheng was startled, his hands trembled, and he hurriedly said: "Lord Gongzun, this sword, only you can match it, I can't, I can't." β
Saying that, Ah Sheng was going to return the Rainbow Sword to Xiao Gongzun.
But Xiao Gongzun didn't take it, he said: "There is nothing unworthy, you are the most suitable person." This sword can only resist the Supreme Demon Emperor in your hands. I have a hunch that the Supreme Demon Emperor will not give up on this. It has been sealed by the Divine Sword Palace for eight hundred years, and it will definitely come to ask for this revenge. β
Ah Sheng's expression was solemn, what a heavy burden this was. I'm just a descendant of the palace realm, where can I afford it.
"You don't have to hesitate!" Xiao Gongzun looked at Ah Sheng and said in a condensed voice: "What you did, the abbot of Haiya has already told the palace master everything. It is not my idea to give you the Rainbow Sword, but the will of the palace master. β
Ah Sheng was shocked, this turned out to be the will of the palace master, and his hand unconsciously grasped the hilt of the Rainbow Sword.
