Chapter 42: The Red Robe
He remembered that the mountain was called Ascension Peak, and it was an uninhabited mountain that had been decaying for many years.
From the moment he first entered the Xuanjian Sect, Su Moyu had a strong interest in this Ascension Peak.
It's a pity that I haven't had a chance to see what happened.
So when he saw this mountain again on such a night, the curiosity in his heart was ignited at once.
"You must go and see it, or maybe you can get the lost inheritance if you're lucky!" Su Moyu said to himself, even though he didn't really believe that he would be lucky enough to that extent.
The mountain road at night is not easy to walk, so even if Su Moyu's footsteps are not slow at this time, he still climbed this extremely deserted mountain peak until dawn the next day.
Unlike the vast number of ruins and ruins in the Valley of the Spirits, there were no buildings left on Ascension Peak except for a thatched stone house.
Su Moyu stood outside the stone house, feeling a little disappointed.
It's also the most mysterious school among the seven streams of Xuanjian, how can it be so shabby?
He put his hand on the half-hidden stone door and gently pushed it in, but it didn't push.
Su Moyu was stunned for a moment, and no matter how hard he tried, he still didn't move.
He was a little secretly frightened at this moment, squatted down and tied up his horse, and pushed it in desperately with all his strength, and this time he finally pushed the stone door half a foot inward.
At the same time, the sound of the stone gate rubbing against the ground sounded on the empty summit of Ascension Peak.
The sound came from afar, and it was still so harsh in mid-air.
At this moment, a red shadow was floating above Ascension Peak.
Looking down from her vantage point, the entire Heavenly Sword Mountain was shrouded in a cloud of blue light, with only a gap revealing where the Ascension Peak was revealed.
She really wanted to enter the Heavenly Sword Mountain, but because of these blue light obstacles, she could only stay at the Ascension Peak.
Her brow furrowed tightly until she heard the grinding sound unfurl slightly, and then landed outside the Ascension Peak Stone House at an unimaginable speed.
Su Moyu walked around the stone house for a long time, but didn't find anything valuable, the stone house was dusty everywhere, and the corners were covered with cobwebs, obviously no one had been here for a long, long time.
He sighed, mocked his wishful thinking, and planned to get out of the stone house.
But when he came to the door of the stone house again, he saw a woman in a barefoot and red robe standing outside the stone house.
This woman has a delicate face and looks young, but there are unimaginable vicissitudes in her eyes.
Su Moyu knew that in the Xuanjian Sect, age could not be judged simply by appearance, so when his eyes met with her, he knew for the first time that this woman was not simple.
"Late ...... Junior...... Su Moyu, I don't know that this is the residence of my predecessors, so I am disturbed, and I hope that my predecessors will forgive me. Su Moyu bowed to the end.
At first, this woman looked indifferent, but when Su Moyu bowed down, she saw the sword behind Su Moyu's back at a glance, and blurted out: "Ghost Sword Styx?"
Su Moyu was stunned, pressed the sword behind his back with his hand, raised his head and said, "Seniors know this sword?"
A trance flashed in the woman's eyes, and then she came back to her senses and said with a wry smile: "How can you not know." ”
As she spoke, she gently walked to Su Moyu's side and stretched out her hand to Su Moyu.
Su Moyu hesitated, but still plucked the River Styx and handed it to the woman.
The woman gently rubbed the sword body with her hand, the look in her eyes looked very complicated, and finally with a long sigh, she handed the sword back to Su Moyu and said, "You are a disciple of the Ghost Sword Stream?"
Su Moyu stretched out his hand to take the sword, and said in his mouth: "Yes." ”
The woman nodded lightly and said, "Then who is your master?"
Su Moyu responded: "Cheng Jian Choice." ”
The woman's eyes flashed, and Su Moyu on the opposite side suddenly felt a chill down her spine.
After a long time, the brilliance in the woman's eyes turned dull again, and she sighed: "Yes, it should be him." ”
She turned around, her face facing in the direction of the Ghost Valley, and Yu Yu asked, "Styx is the number one sword of the Ghost Sword Stream, why would it appear on a disciple like you with a mediocre cultivation?"
Su Moyu was a little embarrassed, touched the back of his head and said, "Because Master said that he would no longer hold a sword in this life, and I will participate in the Great Martial Arts Test soon, he handed over this sword to me." ”
A trace of doubt flashed in the woman's eyes, and she suddenly reached out a hand and grabbed Su Moyu's throat.
Su Moyu was startled, and the ghost king moved under his feet, and he disappeared in place and appeared a few feet away.
It's just that the woman's weird palm was not confused by this teleportation action at all, and Su Moyu only felt that as soon as there was a flower in front of him, he was choked by the other party.
A coldness appeared in the woman's eyes, and she slowly withdrew her palm and said, "How could Cheng Jianxuan hand over the Styx to you, is there no one in the Ghost Sword Flow anymore?"
Su Moyu was still scared at this time, and when she heard the woman ask, she suddenly felt a little strange, and said in a low voice: "Ghost Sword Flow...... Indeed, I am the only disciple. ”
The woman was stunned, suddenly turned around and laughed loudly, and after laughing, it turned into crying, and then laughed again, and Su Moyu who was watching next to her didn't know what to do.
"I don't know what kind of first-class senior you are?" Su Moyu waited beside her to stabilize her mood a little, and then asked.
The woman sneered and said, "Which first-class?"
As she spoke, she reached out and snatched the Styx from behind Su Moyu, and with a mistake under her feet, hundreds of afterimages suddenly flashed in the open space outside the stone house, and it was actually a ghost king.
The woman regained her momentum, threw the Styx back to Su Moyu and said, "Which class do you say I am?"
Su Moyu's eyes widened, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, it turned out that the other party turned out to be the predecessor of the Ghost Sword Stream. It's just that the master obviously told himself that there are only two masters and apprentices left in the Ghost Sword Stream, so who is she? Could it be that she is an old monster who is a generation higher than Cheng Jianxue, thinking of this, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Meet the seniors!"
The woman sneered, "You want to take the Great Martial Arts Test?"
Su Moyu nodded.
The woman looked at him coldly for a long time, and said, "With your ability, you will only be beaten if you go." ”
Su Moyu bit his lip and said a little stubbornly: "But I still have to go, I want to give Master and Ghost Sword Flow a breath of air." ”
The woman was suddenly stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "I don't think that after many years, there are still ghost sword stream disciples who can say this." Well, if I am also a senior of yours, I will help you and let you fight for the ghost sword flow in the great martial arts test!"
Su Moyu didn't know who the other party was, but he knew that the woman's cultivation was absolutely high, and when he heard that she was willing to help him, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Thank you senior!"
The woman waved her hand and said, "But as I said earlier, you are not allowed to tell anyone about what you have seen about me, including your master." As soon as I know that you speak of me to outsiders, I will kill you with a sword. ”
There was a chill in her tone, letting Su Moyu know that her threat was by no means a joke.
"Yes, I swear not to tell outsiders......" Su Moyu nodded again and again.
