Chapter 63: There is a play in all directions, and the curtain begins to unfold.
The ancient sword gate has a tower, which is divided into seven layers, and each layer hides a variety of flying swords with varying numbers. Anyone who is recognized as an inner disciple has a chance to enter the tower to find a sword.
Unlike other sects, most of the disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect chose to serve only one sword for the rest of their lives. Even if the level of the flying sword could not keep up with the improvement of cultivation, they would use the original sword body as a blank and add rare materials to refine it again. For them, the flying sword is like their siblings, who can help them grow, and they must not be easily abandoned.
Whenever a monk dies and can't resist the call of heaven and is about to die, no matter where they are, they will try their best to return to the mountain gate and leave their flying sword in the sword tower. Then they will enter the forbidden place of the ancient sword, be accompanied by countless ancestors, and die alone or peacefully, leaving only the flying sword to whimper, waiting for the next master.
During this period, although some disciples died outside and the flying swords were lost, some sect masters often practiced them, and some disciples gave up the opportunity to enter the tower to choose swords because they were unwilling to give up the original flying swords.
The higher the tower gets, the fewer swords there are, and it is said that by the time you reach the fifth floor, the number of flying swords is less than ten. As for the top of the sword tower, which is known as the seventh floor, there have always been only two flying swords enshrined here, and they have remained unchanged for ten thousand years.
Since the end of the New Era War 10,000 years ago, the Seven-Story Building has never been opened, and those two flying swords have never appeared. However, everyone knows a sentence that represents the majesty of the Ancient Sword Gate, or the protection.
"The seven-story building is open, the ancient sword gate is prosperous! the double sword is peerless, and the ancient sword gate is dead!"
The meaning of this sentence is simple, if a disciple can get the recognition of the double sword, the ancient sword gate will usher in a prosperous period, and if the double sword is taken away or destroyed, it means that the ancient sword gate has disappeared and completely become history.
In other words, if a foreign enemy can't destroy or take away the twin swords, the ancient sword gate will last forever.

...
At this time, on the fifth floor of the Sword Tower, an old man in black with a disheveled head, a filthy and blurred face, and a little crazy was immersed in grief.
"Dead, still dead!"
The old man was holding a wooden sign with a clear crack on it, which seemed to symbolize something. He clung to the worn and damaged wooden plaque, as if grasping something dear to him, and was reluctant to throw it away.
"Grandpa told you back then, don't get involved with Shanjun's subordinates, but you didn't listen. ”
The old man was babbling something to the wooden sign, and outsiders could only be confused when they heard it, not knowing who he was referring to.
"The mountain monarch is neither a human nor a demon, nor a demon, and should not exist in the world. If he forcibly rebels against the sky, he will eventually be cursed by the heavens and die, and he will never die a good death, and no one including his disciples will be able to escape. ”
Looking at the wooden sign, the old man's eyes were cloudy and sad, and his voice was bitter.
"This world is all about killing, do you think it's fun?"
"If you don't listen to me, you'll have to do it yourself. Kendo is persistent, grandpa has no way to force it, so he can only find a Tianxin toad and hand it to you; ”
"Grandpa didn't worry about your temperament, and he couldn't let you leave her in the sect, so he found an excuse to drive you to the ghost place of Luoling. I thought that with the power of the two of you, you would not encounter mortal danger in that kind of border place. ”
"Results ......"
The palm of his hand rubbed against the wooden card, and tears slid down the old man's eyes, dripping on the wooden card and seeping into the crack.
"Three years ago, you sent a message that you would not die in a catastrophe and were rescued by a boy who was only eleven or twelve years old. Grandpa thought that such a miracle could happen to you, symbolizing that the catastrophe had been eliminated and there was nothing to worry about from now on. I am thinking of finding a suitable time to get you back from the War Alliance to continue your cultivation, inherit my Gu lineage, and inherit my mantle. ”...,
"Now, there is no ......"
"Grandpa has prepared a lot of good medicines, which are enough for you to reach the knot in a short time; Now, it's useless......"
"In order to avoid the enemy of the bloodline, grandpa pretended to be crazy and stupid all day long, and he didn't even dare to tell you about your background. Do you know who you are now?"
The sadness in his heart reached the extreme, the old man closed his eyes, and said to himself in a trembling voice: "The Gu clan has destroyed itself, and the Heavenly Absolute Blood Sect has no more transmission, and the Heavenly Evil Twin Swords...... No one will be able to use ...... anymore."
The corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a miserable smile, and then lowered his head.
"After my grandfather dies, my ancestors will not be able to forgive me, and my ancestors will not be able to forgive me. Even if they forgive me, I can't forgive me......"
After being silent for a long time, the old man slowly raised his head and stared at the wooden sign, his eyes gradually becoming cold.
"If you die, grandpa has no thoughts, so don't live. ”
"I've had enough of these days, I've endured enough, and I can't endure it anymore. ”
The old man slowly stood up from the ground, his eyes seemed to be burning, and a terrifying aura emanated, as if it could condense the air.
"Let me take a look at how you died, who killed you! And what kind of person is that young man entrusted to the old man!"
With a snap, the wooden sign was crumpled into pieces by the old man. Later, the figure of the old man flew out of the sword tower, turned into a streamer, and disappeared into the sky of the ancient sword gate.
...
...
Somewhere unknowable, in a great hall.
There is a statue in the hall, the python body is a scorpion tail, and there are eight arms and two heads, one is the face of a beautiful woman, just like the head of a snake spitting letters, it looks particularly gloomy. Behind the statue, there is a phantom shadow in the haze, which is also a double-headed snake body, but it only has six arms, and all of them appear thin, as if transparent.
Under the statue, kneeling were several people in different clothes, several beasts of different shapes, and even two equally vague figures, like ghosts.
The hall was silent for a long time, and suddenly the head of the statue opened its eyes and made a lazy sound.
"After the death of the thirty-seventh son, the wheel of resentment turned, symbolizing that another round of heavenly curses was about to unfold, are you ready?"
When many figures heard this, their hearts were shocked, and they couldn't answer.
The head of the snake also opened its eyes at this time, and actually said in a hoarse and cold voice: "A bunch of waste!"
The crowd below crouched on the ground, afraid to respond.
"Don't say that, sister. ”
The face of the beautiful woman sighed and said, "These children have not experienced it, and some panic is inevitable. ”
The head of the snake snorted coldly, closed his eyes and said no more. The woman's voice said, "Go, do as you please." ”
Without waiting for them to agree, the woman said: "The Taoist courtyard is about to open the mountain gate, you choose one or two suitable people to participate in the courtyard examination, if you can enter the inner courtyard, this seat should be reused." ”
In addition, although the thirty-seventh son died, it is also necessary to find out what happened. If something humiliating happens, you know what to do!"
Several people below said in unison: "Under the Mountain Monarch Gate, you can kill but not be humiliated! If there is any insult to the Mountain Gate, you should destroy his clan." ”
"Well, go ahead. ”
The woman nodded in satisfaction, and Zuihou commanded: "Since the wheel of resentment has begun to turn, this seat should be quietly asleep, and within two hundred years, if nothing big happens, it is not allowed to disturb again." ”
Several people agreed again, bowed earnestly to the statue and left, and the hall gradually fell silent. After a long time, I suddenly heard the woman speak: "What do you think?"
"How else can you look at it, the Heavenly Curse has occurred in advance, and there must be alien interference. ”
The serpent's cold voice sounded and said, "The source of the matter must be in the falling spirit, why don't you let them find out by the way." ”...,
The woman smiled bitterly and said, "Demon Princess, you haven't suffered enough, and you still want to do that kind of interference?"
The head of the snake was silent, and only after a long time did he say: "Even if you don't interfere, you should always find out the truth and be prepared." ”
"It's not that I don't want to, it's just the truth? Who can really find out! With that broken view interference, even if I want to, I am powerless. ”
The woman seemed to remember something unforgettable, and said quietly: "I have been trapped here for many years, and now I have finally found a trace, and I can't make any more extraneous branches. Let's just wait and hope, this time, he won't let me down again. ”
At the mention of the third person, the head of the snake fell completely silent. In the silent hall, there was not a single sound.
...
...
Yinyang Gorge connects the two domains of the demon spirit, and the corresponding place of the demon domain and the falling spirit is called Wuli City.
The clouds are away from the mountains, the water is away from the swamps, the wind is away from the canyons, the fire is away from the mountains, and there is a place where dreams are separated, which is the origin of the name Wuli. Among them, Fengli Canyon refers to the Yin Yang Gorge, and Huoli Mountain is also known as Huoyun Mountain, the difference is that the two domains of spirit and demon have different names for them.
There are five Lili in the name of the city, and the meaning of the word "Li" is not lacking; on the contrary, Lili means abundance, unimaginable abundance.
For example, the Yin Yang Canyon, the people in the Demon Domain call it the Wind Canyon, but the world knows the characteristics of this canyon, and the most important thing is the wind. Whether it's a wind, a whirlwind, a hurricane, a wind, almost everything.
Similarly, the Yunli Mountains are not cloudless, but are covered with clouds and mist all year round, and when the clouds are thick, they can be seen to the point where they are not visible, which is a strange sight.
The place where there are many clouds must be sinister, the clouds are away from the mountains and the mountains of the two realms, the fluidity of the air is poor, and the humidity is stuffy, and there are many miasma poisonous insects, and the environment can be described as harsh. It's not easy to survive here, but it's not intimidating. Within a radius of nearly 1,000 miles, there are more than 100 cottages, large and small, which have become relatively concentrated settlements.
Generally speaking, the population of the Yunli Mountains is quite large, but because it is often affected by spiritual energy storms, the quality of the demonic energy here is very poor, and it is difficult to give birth to monks. Every time a demonic cultivator is generated, it will become the pillar of each cottage, and together with those who are unable to cultivate and specialize in refining the body, they will become the main force to protect the cottage from the attack of demonic beasts.
This situation is similar to that of the spiritual realm, where the life of the mountain people is simple and hard, and for them, the monks tend to become protectors and enjoy the reverence of the people. However, for those demon cultivators, if they didn't want to die in the mountains, they had to travel hundreds of miles away to Wuli City in order to find an opportunity for further cultivation.
Mujiazhai is located in the Yunli Mountains. At this time, on the mountain road more than ten miles away from the village, a dilapidated carriage was slowly moving, and the driver was a weak young man, who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, but in those bright eyes, there was a faint sense of vicissitudes, which seemed quite unusual.
It was nearly noon, and the thick fog finally thinned out, and the vision was clear. The carriage turned around a mountain hollow, and the figure of the cottage could be seen in the distance. The boy raised his head and looked at the shadowy cottage with a smile on his face.
"Tinker Bell, Mujiazhai has arrived!"
