Chapter Forty-Three: A Scene Once Upon a Time
There are ruins and broken walls on the earth, indicating that there were traces of human habitation here. Gu Xuan walked cautiously, looking at all this in shock, he couldn't calm down in his heart.
Is this the battlefield of ancient times? What kind of catastrophe would it be to cut off mountains, rivers of blood, and destroy countless human homes? What about the people among them? Are there any survivors?
Gurgle.
Gu Xuan didn't know what he tripped over, and after stabilizing his figure, he looked down, and suddenly his eyes shrank, there was a dry bone of an arm on the ground, because of the erosion of time, it had decayed, half buried in the ground, and his palm was propped up on the ground, as if he wanted to stand up with all his might.
Unfortunately, in the end, he was not able to stand up and fell here forever.
That arm bone was extraordinary, and though it was decayed, it was still very strong. Gu Xuan thought about it, the owner of this arm, when he was alive, should be very powerful. However, even such characters died here, and how tragic it should have been in the first battle of that year.
When Gu Xuan's arm bones were distracted, a faint light floated out, looming. The dark gray light invisibly enveloped Gu Xuan. The next moment, he saw a majestic figure, standing between heaven and earth, looking into the distance. In the distant sky, there were bursts of thrilling power spreading.
A snow-bright light reflected half of the sky, it was a divine sword that covered the sky and the sun, the sword body was red, dripping naked blood, the divine sword came from nowhere, and it was cut down with a sword.
The sword qi is vertical and horizontal, unmatched, filling this piece of heaven and earth, everywhere it passes, but whenever it encounters it, it is broken inch by inch. Some of the great powers that stood up to fight were swept by the sword rays, and they exploded directly and died, and several peaks comparable to the sky collapsed with a bang, from the ground to the sky, marking a deep sword mark.
On the ground, many people were crying, roaring, and shouting. More powerless, unwilling to despair, they want to resist, but they are powerless, they can only watch their relatives and clansmen fall one by one, blood flowing into the sword marks, converging into a river.
The majestic voice roared to the sky, and he rose from the ground to meet the reckless sword god, and he could not look at it directly.
As soon as the picture turned, Gu Xuan saw Wei An's figure half-kneeling on the ground, his body was covered with dense sword marks, and there were sharp white mangs in the sword marks, and blood was left outward through small openings.
This person's body was obviously extremely strong, and the wounds left by those sword marks were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. But the sword aura left behind in the sword marks was amazingly domineering, and after healing, the wound was torn open again, falling into an endless cycle, and soon, his body was dyed red.
This scene was shocking, I don't know what kind of pain the person was suffering, he didn't care, he wanted to get up and fight again.
Suddenly, a golden light flew across the sky from the tearing sky, leaving a golden trail as it crossed the sky. It was a golden halberd, and with an unparalleled blow that pierced the man's body and pinned him to the ground. He roared unwillingly, grabbed the golden halberd with both hands, and pulled it out of his body, the golden halberd trembled, exuding divine power, suppressing him.
"My people!
The wind rose, his black hair danced wildly, with a thick resentment and despair, he held the ground with one hand and wanted to get up, the sword light flashed, and the arm supporting the ground was cut off by the fierce sword qi.
Then, the golden halberd spewed endless flames, drowning him. After a while, the golden halberd flew away, leaving only a patch of ash on the ground. When the wind rises, go away with the wind.
Only the severed arm remained, clutching the ground and never falling.
"Xuanzi, Xuanzi, wake up. ”
Gu Xuan's body trembled, and he was awakened by Gu Chi, but the shock in his heart still hadn't calmed down. He looked at the dry bones in his hands, and his heart was mixed, what kind of unwillingness and despair it was, watching his people being destroyed, watching everything being trampled on!
Although he died, his hatred was not extinguished.
That strong resentment affected Gu Xuan, allowing him to look back at the past and feel the sadness of all this.
The cruel memory made him unable to calm down for a long time. Is this the immortal cultivation realm that mortals yearn for?
Gu Chi squatted down, shook his hand in front of him, and asked worriedly: "Xuanzi, what's wrong with you? Are you enchanted? What are you doing holding a bone?"
Gu Xuan took a deep breath and shook his head. Without saying a word, he dug the grave with his bare hands, buried the dry bones, and bowed a few times. This is a strong man in the world, who still does his best in the face of strong enemies, although he is defeated and killed, but he also deserves respect.
"I don't dare to determine what happened at the beginning, but everything has a cause. Gu Xuan muttered, feeling sorry for these dead people, and at the same time knowing that things were not so simple.
Gu Chi saw that he was chattering, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he reached out and touched his forehead. Gu Xuan frowned and said, "What are you doing?"
Gu Chi sighed when he heard the words and said: "You scared me to death, you thought you were giving a ghost a body, it's very evil here, be careful." ”
He looked into the distance again and said, "The real person in charge of the family said that there is a fate here, but in my opinion, this seems to be a murderous place. How could our upright Shocking Sect secretly hide such a place?"
Gu Xuan said softly: "Murder is chance, this was once a battlefield, countless powers withered, they must have weapons or exercises left here." ”
When Gu Chi heard this, he immediately showed eagerness: "Then what are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and find it, those are ancient weapons and exercises, just find one or two, you can make us stronger." ”
Gu Xuan smiled: "Have you forgotten that your master once said that no matter what you see, you can't be greedy, these ancient things, even they don't dare to touch them, how can we get our hands on them?"
Gu Chi scratched his head, feeling that it made sense, he said with a bitter face: "Then what should we do, there are things that can't be taken yet, and in the face of this ghost place, can flowers still grow?"
"Just because you can't be greedy doesn't mean you can't learn. Gu Xuan said something inexplicable, raised his feet and left, leaving Gu Chi with a confused expression, and after a while, he hurriedly caught up.
Walking all the way, the bones were fragmented, and the yin wind roared. This sound was like the desperate cry of those people at the beginning, which made Gu Xuan's heart feel uncomfortable for a while, and they found some real powerful weapons, but they were all beaten and broken. Due to Qianhuai's reminder before, none of them moved for these things.
"It's really cruel, even the baby was spared, did those people have any humanity back then!" Gu Chi was indignant, and the bones he saw on the road made him who had always been bold shocked, how many killings had been made, and there were less than half a foot of dry bones of the baby.
Gu Xuan also felt that it was indeed too amazing, and the disaster of exterminating the clan made people sigh.
"Look, what are they doing?" Suddenly, Gu Chi found that there was an acquaintance in front of him, it was a disciple of the Shocking Flood Sect who had come down with them. At a glance, Gu Xuan saw a fairy-like figure who was incompatible with this place, Sikong Shi.
Gu Chi gritted his teeth and said, "There is also Fang Xiuyang's bastard, Lao Tzu has to find a chance to clean him up." ”
Gu Xuan said lightly: "No need, I have already helped you out of your anger." ”
The two walked over, and saw a group of five people surrounding a piece of corpse, among the bones, there was a palm-sized purple gold gourd, which did not seem to be damaged, and several disciples nearby were about to move, staring at the purple gold gourd with blazing eyes.
Luo Yi swept over and nodded slightly to Gu Xuan. Sikong poetry, as always, does not eat the fireworks of the world, and has never expressed his position. Fang Xiuyang glanced at them with a calm face, and without saying a word, he reached out and grabbed towards the purple gold gourd.
"Wait!" it was Luo Yi who spoke.
Fang Xiuyang raised his head and said, "What, you want to fight with me?"
Luo Yi looked indifferent and said, "I'm not interested." Just look at the same peak, I want to remind you not to forget, don't be greedy. ”
Fang Xiuyang snorted, licked the tip of his tongue, and slowly withdrew his palm, looking like he wanted to take it but didn't dare to take it.
"Cowardice, don't you dare to take the baby here, you don't want me!" Gu Chi deliberately provoked him on the side, in exchange for Fang Xiuyang's hateful gaze.
Gu Xuan looked at Luo Yi and said softly, "Brother Luo, have you ever found any chance?"
Luo Yi frowned, and said in a slightly condensed voice: "This place is extremely dangerous, even if there is an opportunity, I am afraid that it will be a situation of nine deaths and one life." ”
Gu Xuan nodded in agreement, moved his gaze to the purple gold, and said: "This purple gold gourd looks extraordinary, and it may also be an opportunity for us to wait, if we fight for nine deaths, we may be able to succeed." ”
He turned his gaze to Fang Xiuyang, and saw that he had a struggling look on his face, obviously it was difficult to choose in his heart, whether to make a move or not to make a move. This is the same as Gu Xuan thought, although Fang Xiuyang has talent, but he is from a wealthy family, he can't stand the test and tempering, especially after he was defeated by Gu Xuan, he has become a kind of demon, and he has an extreme thirst for strength.
After a moment, he gritted his teeth, reached out and went straight to the purple gold gourd, held it in his hand under the gaze of everyone, and picked it up.
When he raised the purple gourd, everyone retreated one after another, so as not to suddenly affect them due to a sudden disaster. Who knows, Fang Xiuyang was vigilant for a long time, and he didn't see any change in the purple gold gourd. He was instantly overjoyed, stroking the purple gold gourd back and forth, he couldn't put it down, and then touched the top cover of the gourd, and naturally pulled it open.
"No!" Almost at the same time, Gu Xuan and Luo Yi's voices sounded, but it was too late, Gu Xuan pulled Gu Chi and turned his head and ran, and then looked at Luo Yi the same.
Gu Chi, who was being pulled, didn't know why, so he looked around and said strangely: "Xuanzi, what are you running? ”
Gu Xuan ignored him, the reason why he ran was because he sensed that something was wrong. This purple gold gourd was placed there openly, how could no one have found it in the thousands of years since the Shocking Flood Sect did? It means that there must be something strange in it. Since Fang Xiuyang didn't have an accident just now, the accident must have been in the gourd.
