Chapter Forty-Eight: Ten Thousand Swords and Divine Power The Great War Begins
In Heyang City, hundreds of people packed up their salutes and slowly moved to the north under the organization of Qingyun's disciples.
A child crying because he was separated from his friends, and an old man who looked at his homeland and wept silently...... Looking at this heavy scene, Lin Jingyu's heart was heavy, as if he had blocked something.
"Big brother, this is for you." Just as Lin Jingyu was pondering, a child in shabby clothes pulled the corner of his clothes and handed him a note.
"A fire in the backyard?" Lin Jingyu opened the note and read out the words on it with some confusion.
……
On the night of the second day, the army of beasts and demons gathered at the foot of Qingyun Mountain, preparing to attack.
At five o'clock in the morning of the third day, at the three-way intersection of the mountain trail behind Tongtian Peak, Zhang Xiaofan stood quietly in this faint mist.
Ten years ago, he had been here too.
Suddenly, he stopped.
"You're here too?" Zhang Xiaofan didn't look back, and said lightly.
In the mist, a dark shadow slowly appeared, "Naturally. ”
Zhang Xiaofan stared at this ghost gentleman and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing?" ”
"Naturally, I'm here to help you."
"What are you talking about?" Zhang Xiaofan sneered.
"You don't have to be suspicious." Mr. Ghost shook his head: "I have no intention of being your enemy, let alone that you just saved me once." ”
"How are you going to help me?" Zhang Xiaofan is still on guard in secret...... He didn't believe that Mr. Ghost would really help him selflessly.
"Just tell you some secrets." Mr. Ghost said lightly: "There is no mechanism outside the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion, but there is a magic circle in it, which is used to guard the sword spirit of the ancient sword and the immortal, if someone enters rashly, it is equivalent to being in the sword array of the immortal, if you think you can resist the peerless magic array, then I have nothing to say to you." ”
Zhang Xiaofan's figure froze suddenly.
"You don't have to be disappointed." Mr. Ghost glanced at him and continued, "Originally, no one in my Demon Sect could enter the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion, but now there was an accident. ”
Mr. Ghost looked directly at him: "This magic array uses the Taiji Xuanqing Dao Shangqing Realm as the key, looking at the world, in addition to the Qingyun Sect and the various elders, only you can enter...... As for the illusions in the cave and the demons in your heart, you can only look at your own creation. ”
Zhang Xiaofan was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Why are you telling me this?" ”
Mr. Ghost gently pulled his hood, and a pale smile curled into the corner of his mouth, "You don't have to think about it, that's all, believe it or not." ”
……
Before dawn, on Tongtian Peak, Lin Jingyu opened Mo Wen's door, but found that it was empty.
"Don't ask if he's not there." Lin Jingyu muttered to himself, "Where will he go?" Forget it, let's ask Senior Brother Xiao first. ”
……
Zhang Xiaofan looked directly at Mr. Ghost, and Mr. Ghost looked at him without fear, and after a while, Zhang Xiaofan turned around without saying a word and walked towards the fork in the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion.
And at this moment, an old voice came out from the mist of the fork in the ancestral hall: "Where are the two of you going early in the morning?" ”
The two of them were shocked, Zhang Xiaofan looked back, and a rickety figure slowly emerged from the path of the ancestral hall, covered with faces full of deep ravines, shabby wooden brooms, and slightly bent waist poles...... If you ignore his bright and terrifying gaze.
It was such an old man, who slowly walked in front of the two important figures of the Ghost King Sect, with a lazy tone: "It's cold in the morning, the tired birds haven't gotten up, do you intend to drink a bowl of hot tea with the old man?" ”
……
"Are you looking for Mo to ask?" Xiao Yicai looked at this fellow disciple who had been nesting in the ancestral hall of Houshan for ten years, "He said that the war was about to start, and he was so excited that he went for a walk in the back mountain." ”
"Went for a walk?" Lin Jingyu felt that the uneasy feeling in his heart was getting heavier and heavier: "Thank you, Senior Brother Xiao, I'll go to the ancestral hall first." ”
[Is there anyone there?] Xiao Yicai was slightly puzzled in his heart, and then smiled: "Go, maybe you can still meet Senior Brother Mo." ”
"Well, Senior Brother Xie has said auspiciously."
……
In the mist, Mr. Zhang Xiaofan, Mr. Wan Jian, and the three of them held each other against each other.
"You two must be from my youth." Wan Jianyi's hands holding the broom trembled lightly unconsciously: "What are you going to do when you invade my Qingyun Land?" ”
Mr. Ghost looked at the old man carefully, and suddenly smiled: "You are just an old man watching the mourning hall, why bother so much?" As for the purpose of our visit...... This companion of mine has heard of the Phantom Moon Cave for a long time, and wants to see it, how about it, let him go in? ”
Zhang Xiaofan looked solemn and retorted: "Before going up the mountain, you and I had already agreed: I would break into the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion to attract the attention of the people in Qingyun, and then you sneaked into the ancestral hall of the ancestor and destroyed the tablet of the ancestors of Qingyun...... Now that your goal is in front of you, why are you holding back? ”
Mr. Ghost was speechless, he didn't expect Zhang Xiaofan to use such a low-end trick, but now this simple framing is unexpectedly useful, and in the face of Wan Jianyi's sharp gaze, he had to lift his hole cards.
"Is your left hand okay?" Mr. Ghost whispered.
"Huh?" Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately reacted: These two people are old acquaintances!
Wan Jianyi was also stunned, he unconsciously clenched his broom, and looked at the familiar and unfamiliar black shadow, "Yes...... You? ”
"Well, it's me." Mr. Ghost's words were full of sighs: "I was sure that you wouldn't die so easily, but it seems that I guessed correctly...... I haven't seen you all these years, why are you so old? Looking at your current appearance, who still knows you, Wan Jianyi, who was famous all over the world back then? ”
"Wan Jianyi? Hehe......" The old man laughed self-deprecatingly, his face wrinkled and trembled, and countless fine lines slowly cracked on the wooden broom in his hand.
Syllable! The broom in Wan Jianyi's hand finally couldn't withstand the strength of this peerless person's emotional agitation, and with a sad scream, it turned into crumbs and disappeared with the mountain wind.
"If it wasn't for your help, I would have been disabled." Wan Jianyi stood up straight, "I have always kept this kindness in my heart. ”
"It's just a trifle." Mr. Ghost waved his hand lightly, "Back then, you and I hit it off at first sight, and we were in the northwest wilderness, by the way, there is also the monk Puzhina......"
Hearing this name, Zhang Xiaofan unconsciously clenched his fists.
"Although you and I have different sects, we also have a good relationship." Mr. Ghost sighed: "Now that Puzhi guy has been dead for many years, and you have not heard from him, and now I can see you again on this Qingyun Mountain, my trip is worth it." ”
"Hey......" Wan Jianyi was also embarrassed: "I didn't expect to see you again...... Hold it! ”
Zhang Xiaofan didn't want to listen to the two of them talk about the old days, so he turned around and left, but was stopped by Wan Jian with a wave of his hand.
Looking at the cyan light curtain that suddenly appeared in front of him, Zhang Xiaofan didn't care, and directly hit it.
Circles of ripples appeared in the pale blue light curtain, and Zhang Xiaofan easily passed through.
"Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao?" Wan Jianyi frowned: "You are the Zhang Xiaofan who betrayed Qingyun back then?" ”
"Get out of the way!" Facing the old man standing in front of him, Zhang Xiaofan, who was in an extremely bad mood because he heard the word 'Puzhi' again, coldly spit out these two words.
Wan Jian was unmoved, but looked Zhang Xiaofan up and down, and said, "Senior Brother Tian can actually teach a disciple like you, it's really amazing." ”
"Humph!" Seeing that Wan Jianyi didn't give way, Zhang Xiaofan walked straight towards him, as if he didn't exist.
Wan Jian didn't retreat, and the two got closer and closer......
Seeing that the two were about to collide, Wan Jianyi snorted lightly and jumped up, and then, the Soul Devourer broke through the ground and hit Wan Jianyi in mid-air.
"Drink!" In the face of the fierce magic weapon that shot in, Wan Jian did not dodge it, he shouted, his right hand was full of blue light, and he grabbed the soul devouring that was attacking him. And the Blood Devouring Bead at the top of the Soul Devourer also shone with dark red blood, and it met it fiercely.
Ziz ...... The blue light and blood continued to melt, but Zhang Xiaofan's complexion changed.
The dark blood inspired by the Blood Devouring Bead couldn't stop Wan Jianyi's ferocious grasp, and he was constantly forced back by the blue light, just like the Blood Devouring Bead's blood-sucking ability was ineffective against him.
[What a high cultivation! It was the first time that Zhang Xiaofan had seen someone fight against the blood-devouring bead's ability without relying on his magic weapon with his bare hands, and seeing that his magic weapon was about to be captured by the enemy, Zhang Xiaofan changed his gesture, and a golden swastika slowly emerged from the top of the blood-devouring bead, shaking Wan Jianyi's hand slightly.
Soul Eater also took advantage of this gap and flew back into Zhang Xiaofan's hands.
Wan Jian Yi: The legend of the Seven Stars High Section, in the early years and now Qingyun is the master of the Dao Xuan Zhenren and called the two geniuses of Qingyun, with a free and easy temperament, extremely high cultivation, and swordsmanship. (Now that he's bare-handed, you might be able to beat him, but it's definitely a pyrrhic victory...... Heroes are down, but they are still heroes. )
[Finally saw this guy shoot head-on.] Mo Wen secretly aside, [I'm stronger than Xiao Fan, according to that, if there is no sneak attack by Mr. Ghost, wouldn't Xiao Fan definitely lose? 】
[Hmm...... Let's wait a little longer, Zhang Xiaofan is the protagonist, maybe he will be violent. 】
"Great Brahma!" Wan Jian, who landed again, turned a little pale and said word by word.
Zhang Xiaofan's face remained unchanged, and he repeated: "Get out of the way!" ”
Looking at the cold eyes and indifferent expression of the young man in front of him, Wan Jianyi was suddenly touched: many years ago, he was so invincible and so proud of the world.
"Good...... Good! Wan Jian's face suddenly turned red, and he laughed loudly: "Young people should be like this!" But if you want to go over, then show your skills! ”
After saying that, Wan Jian retreated violently, and casually uprooted an old pine tree that was hundreds of years old, "You have a blood devouring bead, and look at how my Qingyun giant tree is!" ”
Looking at the old man in front of him holding a big tree with one hand, Zhang Xiaofan's eyes froze, grabbed the soul devouring and rushed towards the old man who was like a god of war.
"Come on!" Wan Jian shouted, and the giant tree danced and smashed head-on towards Zhang Xiaofan who rushed up!
Zhang Xiaofan's figure blurred violently, turning into more than a dozen black shadows and attacking Wan Jianyi.
"Carving insect skills!" Wan Jian laughed, and the giant tree spun in his hand as if it had no weight, turning into thousands of green shadows, shattering the dozen or so black shadows.
But he still didn't stop, but danced the giant tree in his hand more intensely.
In the gale, Zhang Xiaofan's figure slowly appeared, and a trace of flush flashed on his cold face...... Soul Eater flew out of his hand and nailed it to the trunk of the giant tree that Wan Jianyi was using as a weapon.
The verdant pine needles instantly turned yellow, and the originally vibrant canopy was shrouded in the smell of decay, and spread towards Wanjianyi.
Click! Wan Jian waved his sword in one hand, and the fierce wind easily cut the giant tree into two pieces, and then he jumped up laughing, holding the remaining trunk with both hands, using this ordinary pine tree as a weapon, and cast Qingyun's supreme true method: slaying ghosts and gods!
The blue light was dazzling, the wind was raging, and in the face of Wan Jianyi's unbearable blow, Zhang Xiaofan did not dodge or dodge, his hands were raised flat to devour the soul, and the cyan Taiji diagram and the golden swastika suddenly merged into one on the soul devouring body, and then a huge blue and gold Taiji diagram shot out from the soul devouring soul and rushed towards the giant tree that was blasted down.
The whole world seemed to stand still, and the huge air flow spread out in a circle, and Mo Wen, who was secretly lurking on the side, even had to grab the trees in front of him to resist the violent air current.
The huge and incomparable force knocked out the Taiji diagram that Zhang Xiaofan had transformed out of a deep depression, Zhang Xiaofan's face was extremely pale, and his ankles had already sunk into the soil; The giant tree in Wan Jian's hand was also shattered inch by inch, but he didn't care, and laughed wildly and pressed the remaining trunk down; Mr. Ghost watched this high-level fight intently, and a strange light flashed in his eyes...... None of the three of them paid attention to Mo Wen, who was no longer able to hide his traces and appeared on the scene.
The blue-gold Taiji diagram rotated more and more slowly, and finally shattered into light chips, and when he saw that Zhang Xiaofan was about to die, dark red blood light suddenly burst out from his body, and with the help of this sudden ferocious force, Zhang Xiaofan straightened his body again, and slowly pushed back Wan Jianyi's attack.
The trunk of the tree in Wan Jian's hand was nearly three meters long.
After Mr. Ghost on the side saw Zhang Xiaofan covered in blood, his body shook unconsciously, and then clenched his fists, as if he had made up his mind, turned into a black shadow, and silently approached Zhang Xiaofan and Wan Jianyi in the confrontation.
Seeing all of this in his eyes, Mo Wen began to act: the colorful lightsaber ghostly stabbed Mr. Ghost in the back of his unsuspecting heart.
hissed, the cloth shattered, Mr. Ghost's thin clothes turned into crumbs, but Mo Wen, who had succeeded in the blow, sighed.
[The old rivers and lakes are the old rivers and lakes...... Sneak attacks are really not useful. 】
Wan Jianyi, who was confronting Zhang Xiaofan, was taken aback, and as soon as he lost his mind, he was caught a flaw by Zhang Xiaofan, who was in a state of devouring blood, and broke his true method of killing ghosts and gods with one blow, and injured him.
Zhang Xiaofan, who had the opportunity to win, did not pursue, but glared at Mr. Ghost, who did not know when he reappeared on the battlefield; Mo Wen didn't continue to move, but held Wan Jianyi, who was holding his chest and coughing up blood, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Wan, you are too careless." ”
"Ahem...... I'm still old. With the help of Mo Wen, Wan Jianyi encouraged and suppressed the blood-devouring demonic power that had invaded his body, and looked at his old friend with a disappointed expression.
"Don't ask, are you going to stop me?" The red light in Zhang Xiaofan's eyes gradually receded, and he said quietly: "No matter what, I must go in and have a look." ”
"Did you misunderstand something?" Mo Wen replied while instilling pure spiritual power into Wan Jianyi's body: "You two, Uncle Wan is injured, I can't stop you." ”
"......" Zhang Xiaofan saw that Mo Wen was really not ready to stop him, and he didn't say much, turned around and disappeared into the depths of the trail.
"Old friend, after so many years, you are still like this, you always believe in your friends so much, and you don't mention it at all." Mr. Ghost's figure gradually blurred, "If it weren't for your junior, you would have died at my hands...... Take care, and then goodbye! ”
Silence returned to the clearing.
After a while, Wan Jian smiled and said, "Little slippery, you deliberately let that little guy in." ”
"Where?" Mo Wen denied it: "I didn't expect that ghostly guy to be able to dodge my sneak attack...... Besides, Uncle Wan, the blood-devouring demon power in your body is not something to deal with, and Master Puzhi is driven crazy by this thing. ”
"Hey......" Seeing Mo ask Gu left and right about him, Wan Jianyi sighed: "Do you know what's in there?" ”
"Qingyun Forbidden Land, Phantom Moon Cave Mansion." Mo Wen shook his head and shook his head: "Since the Phantom Moon is already famous, there should be a Phantom Array in the Cave, Xiao Fan is not only concerned a lot but also has the Blood Devouring Bead on his body, he will be trapped by the Phantom Realm." ”
"Now that you understand...... Never mind. Wan Jian sighed, looking at Mo Wen's eyes with two more points of disappointment, "Send me back to the ancestral hall, I'm a little tired." ”
"Master!"
Just when Mo Wen helped Wan Jianyi turn around, Lin Jingyu finally arrived: Lin Jingyu, who saw Wan Jianyi's injury, immediately turned red in his eyes, and he rushed over, "Master!" Who hurt you! ”
"Ahem, didn't you say don't call me Master?" Wan Jian's face turned pale: "I'm fine, I'll go back first." ”
After that, he didn't look at Lin Jingyu, and quickly disappeared into the mist.
"Don't ask! You know that! Lin Jingyu grabbed Mo who was about to leave secretly and asked, "Who hurt him!" ”
"That person is in the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion." Mo Wen broke away, "If you dare to go, go ahead, the beast demon is about to attack the mountain, and I am going to fight." ”
“…… Don't ask, I misread you! Lin Jingyu looked at Mo Wen who was leaving quickly with cold eyes, and then gritted his teeth and ran towards the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion.
……
On the Tongtian Peak Square, countless beasts and demons tirelessly attacked the defense line formed by the righteous path monks, and the thick bloody aura permeated the entire square, and the white marble was already covered with corpse blood. There were already a thin mist of blood in several fierce battlefields.
And Mo Wen fought in the thickest blood mist.
"Sure enough, Musou mowing is the coolest!" Mo Wen paused, and the huge rock sword rose into the sky, dividing the dozen beast demons in front of him into two sections.
"Let's all die!" Mo Wen laughed, and the rock sword turned into thousands of fragments, shooting towards the beast tide with the momentum of ten thousand swords.
"Seven stars, broken!" Xiao Yicai suddenly came to Mo Wen's side and gasped: "Mo Wen, have you seen Lin Jingyu?" ”
"Him?" casually froze a beast demon who came to attack him without knowing whether he was alive or dead into ice, Mo Wen turned his head: "I saw him in the back mountain in the morning, and now I should kill the beast demon in the square." ”
"Nope." Xiao Yicai said while facing the enemy: "I haven't seen him yet, Qi Hao of Longshou Peak still cares about me." ”
"Then I don't know." Mo Wen opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Now he still has the kung fu to take care of these?" ”
"yes!" Xiao Yicai had a rare bloodthirsty smile on his face, and rushed towards the guy in front of him who was obviously bigger than an ordinary demon beast.
"Suffer death!"
……
At the entrance of the Phantom Moon Cave, Zhang Xiaofan constantly experienced painful memories, those who gave him warmth, those who brought him pain...... With familiar and unfamiliar faces, warm or cold influences, Zhang Xiaofan unconsciously immersed himself in the long river of memories and couldn't extricate himself.
Outside the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion, Lin Jingyu made up his mind and pressed his hand on the jade Tai Chi pattern at the entrance of the cave.
