Since the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion changed hands, Tianming succeeded as the suzerain of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, which made countless sects in Zhongzhou stunned. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info After receiving the invitation from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, he came back to his senses, and it turned out that all of this was true! In countless speculations and doubts, the sects that received the invitation all brought their congratulatory gifts and went to Yidu. Even many small sects and factions that have not received the invitation from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion are still working hard, scavenging all kinds of rare treasures, hoping to be able to perform well when the new sect master succeeds to the throne.
The Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion changed hands, and the new lord succeeded to the throne for three days. All the major sects on the continent sent people to congratulate, and countless sects gathered in the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion. When the banquet ends, it is also destined that Tianming's name will resound throughout Zhongzhou and spread all over the world.
Thousands of miles away from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, the Cangming Sect, its sect leader Ao Cangtian, although he only has the strength of a five-star sword venerable, but because he has a close relationship with an elder of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, he was lucky enough to get an invitation. is nervously preparing everything, wanting to stand out among many sects and be recognized by Tianming.
Under the careful preparation of Ao Cangtian, coupled with a large number of gifts, after getting the elder surnamed Li patting his chest and packing the ticket, there was absolutely no problem, Ao Cangtian took the long-prepared gift and set foot on Wanjian Mountain.
Under the deliberate mention of the elder surnamed Li, Tianming also paid attention to the so-called sect master of the Cangming Sect. To be honest, if Elder Li didn't say it, Tianming wouldn't have known that there was such a sect among the affiliated sects of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion.
After successfully meeting Tianming, Ao Cangtian chose to surrender to Tianming without hesitation, and presented the gift he had carefully prepared with both hands.
To Ao Cangtian's disappointment, the other party just glanced at the gift he had carefully prepared, and then waved his hand and asked the disciples on the side to put it away, and they didn't seem to have much interest. This made the heart of the proud sky suddenly sink. However, what happened next made Ao Cangtian feel like he had gone from hell to heaven in an instant.
For such a small sect as the Cangming Sect, Tianming really couldn't arouse any interest in his heart, so after letting the disciples on the side accept the other party's gifts, he was ready to entertain the envoys of other sects. Tianming, who had just taken two steps, seemed to have thought of something, turned to look at Ao Cangtian and asked, "By the way, what's your name?"
"Contemptible and arrogant. Ao Cangtian, who was originally very disappointed, didn't expect that things seemed to have a turn for the better, and hurriedly responded.
"That Cangming Sect of yours was built on Canglang Mountain, right?" Tianming's eyes flashed with a strange look, and he looked at Ao Cangtian and asked.
"Yes, yes. ”
"Not bad, not bad. Hearing this, the smile on Tianming's face gradually became richer, and he gently patted Ao Cangtian's shoulder, laughed and left. Only the arrogant sky with a blank face remained, and many people from other sects who showed envy.
After returning from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, Ao Cangtian still couldn't understand why Tianming had changed his attitude towards himself after hearing that his sect was established in Canglang Mountain. However, these doubts disappeared in an instant after Elder Li sent hundreds of bottles of the best Yunling Pill with Tianming's order.
In the past few days, the smile on Ao Cangtian's face has never broken. After getting Tianming's approval, not only did the status of the Cangming Sect rise instantly, but the large and small sects in the vicinity came to visit one after another, which was something that Ao Cangtian had never thought of.
With the strength of the proud sky, after establishing the Cangming Sect, he has been concentrating on development, wanting to develop the Cangming Sect into a large sect, but his talent is limited after all, and he lacks the necessary elixir for cultivation, so his cultivation is very slow.
But now it is completely different, even the few door masters who were cruel to themselves at the beginning also visited in person, which made Ao Cangtian's originally somewhat decadent heart throb again. Watching the sect prosper day by day, Ao Cangtian is also ambitious.
The craze of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion changing hands gradually dissipated, and Canglang Mountain also returned to its former calm again. In the Gulang Hall, Ao Cangtian's face was gloomy, and his brows were furrowed, as if something had happened. And the few people sitting above the arrogant sky, the elders of the Cangming Sect, also had gloomy faces.
"How many?" Ao Cangtian glanced up at Zhao Mu beside him, and his deep voice was mixed with a hint of hoarseness.
"The ninth..."Meeting the gaze of the arrogant sky, Zhao Mu glutinously pouted and said slowly.
"The ninth, the ninth!" muttered twice, Ao Cangtian's face was full of anger, and he slapped the sandalwood table on the left hard. The hard sandalwood table, under the palm of the proud sky, suddenly shattered. Countless sawdust flew everywhere, and several elders shook their heads helplessly when they saw this.
The Cangming Sect is not a big sect in the first place, and the disciples in the sect are full, and the number is less than a thousand. And in just one month, the disciples in the sect have disappeared nine people one after another, and these nine people were not killed because they went down the mountain to practice, but in the sect, quietly, there was no one!
It's no wonder that Ao Cangtian is so angry, for a small sect like Cangming Sect, every disciple is precious, and no one can guarantee that among these disciples, there will be people with outstanding talents. Therefore, for He Ao Cangtian, these people are the hope of the future of the Cangming Sect, but now, one by one, the disciples have disappeared one after another, and he and the others have never been found for a reason.
Although Ao Cangtian tried his best to block the news, it eventually spread. As soon as the news spread, the disciples in the door were immediately panicked. I'm afraid that the next one will be myself, and many people have already thought of leaving.
And Ao Cangtian also vigorously urged the disciples and elders in the sect, wanting to find out the reason for the disappearance of the disciple as soon as possible. These days, Ao Cangtian has thought about all the possibilities, but he has never had any clue.
Since he established the Cangming Sect, he has been walking on thin ice and acting carefully, and has never provoked other sects. And a month ago, he was lucky to be favored by Tianming, many sects have been known, and they have sent people to visit, although a month has passed, but they want to do it to themselves, and they will definitely not choose this time.
"Who could it be?" Ao Cangtian rubbed his swollen head and sighed in his heart.
After a moment of silence, a trace of determination flashed in Ao Cangtian's eyes, no matter what, this culprit must be found!
"Zhao Mu!" Ao Cangtian looked at Zhao Mu with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice: "Tonight, you lead fifty disciples to be responsible for the tranquility of the front mountain. ”
"Yes!" Looking at Ao Cangtian with a solemn face, several elders suddenly felt a pang in their hearts, understood Ao Cangtian's thoughts, and suddenly shook their spirits. Zhao Mu nodded solemnly and said, "As long as he dares to appear, I will definitely capture him!"
"Guo Tian, Fang Ling, the two of you are responsible for the sleeping place of the disciples in the door, remember, once you find any movement, you must detonate the signal flare as soon as possible, and we will support you as soon as possible!"
"Yes!"
"As for Zhang Chuang, you will stay with me in the Gulang Hall. Ao Cangtian's gaze skimmed over the last elder, and he said in a deep voice, "I want to see who is playing ghost in my Cangming Sect!"
The sky gradually darkened, and many disciples of the Cangming Sect also returned to their rooms. In the past month, there have been rumors of ghosts and monsters in the Cangming Sect. For these cultivators, they naturally don't believe in the so-called ghosts, but the brothers of the same sect who have disappeared one after another have sounded the alarm for many people.
Since there are no ghosts, then the strength of the other party is absolutely unfathomable, otherwise, with the strength of the sect master and the help of the four elders, why didn't they catch the other party?
Li Ming looked at the pitch-black jungle with a wary face, and in the silent jungle, the sound of insects from time to time made Li Ming's nervous mood a little relieved.
Stretched out his hand and touched Wang Jie beside him, and Wang Jie suddenly turned around and looked at Li Ming with a frightened face, and after a while, the fear gradually disappeared.
"People are scary, scared to death, don't you know!" Wang Jie breathed a sigh of relief and waited for Li Ming with an angry face.
"Hehe..." Li Ming laughed awkwardly, his eyes skimmed around, and he said in a low voice: "You say, is that guy back?"
"How do I know?!" Wang Jie rolled his eyes angrily, and said with some fear: "I wish he hadn't appeared..."
"What are you afraid of? With the Sect Master and a few elders here, how much more waves can he make?" Li Ming said as if he was comforting himself.
"Oh?" Hearing this, a trace of disdain flashed on Wang Jie's face, and he looked around, seeing that there was no abnormal movement, it seemed that the other disciples were also lurking and did not dare to move, and said in a low voice: "Do you think the other party's strength will be weaker than the sect master?"
"This, this, for sure..."Li Ming hesitated for a long time, and then he said with a weak heart.
"The other party was able to quietly take away the nine junior disciples, which shows that the strength of the other party is definitely not low, otherwise, those junior disciples would not have not made a sound at all, and the sect master has been secretly investigating for a month, but still has not found any trace of the other party, but the disciples in the sect are gradually decreasing. Wang Jie guessed softly, "I estimate that the other party's strength is at least a Sword Sect-level master, and it may even be a Sword Venerable-level powerhouse, otherwise, there won't be a trace left!"
"Well, what you said is not impossible. Li Ming nodded approvingly, and muttered to himself: "If that's the case, once we find him, I think we should quickly inform Elder Zhao that they are, with our strength, in the eyes of the other party, it is not even a dish." ”
While the two were talking, the fear in their hearts was gradually forgotten, but they guessed each other's strength with relish. However, they didn't pay attention, and while they were talking softly, a wisp of black qi slowly approached the two of them!
"Wang Jie, why did you say that guy killed those juniors? If you talk about hatred, you can't talk about it at all, but the other party seems to be eyeing our Cangming Sect. Li Ming looked at Wang Jie with some confusion and asked.
"Who knows?" Wang Jie said helplessly, "With our strength, we won't be put in the eyes of that guy at all, but he just wants to make a move on us, can he have an enmity with our Cangming Sect? Even if there is an enmity, he shouldn't seek revenge from us, hum, I think it is very likely that the other party's strength is not the opponent of the sect master at all, that's why it's like this, what do you say?"
Wang Jie, who had just finished some calculations, looked up at Li Ming, but saw the other party's frightened look on his face, and pointed behind him with his right hand.
"What are you doing? you want to scare me again?" Seeing this, Wang Jie's face suddenly showed a trace of anger, and he raised his hand and waved it twice in front of Li Ming's eyes. But he saw that the frightened look on the other party's face not only did not decrease, but became more and more terrifying. A hint of foreboding suddenly rose in his heart, and he swallowed his saliva with a stiff face, and slowly turned his head away.
However, what made Wang Jie angry was that there was nothing behind him except for the darkness!
"Li Ming!" Li Jie roared angrily, and before he could turn around, he heard Li Ming's hehehe's laughter.
The moment he turned around, Li Ming's voice suddenly stopped, like a male duck whose throat had been suddenly choked.
A terrifying evil face, a bloody mouth, was clasped on Li Ming's head, and the black mist on the evil face was constantly surging into Li Ming's body. Wang Jie's pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked at the strange face in front of him with a shocked face, which was devouring Li Ming little by little, and couldn't help but cry out, and the silent jungle exploded in an instant.
"Ahh
