Chapter 211: Alone and Private
"Fortune Zhoutian, turn the stars, the breeze enters the leyline, help me travel thousands of miles!"
Zhao Xiao pointed at the trick, the earth shrinking rune did not fly by itself, and a little towards the ground, a circle of turning qi appeared on the originally flat and solid ground, like a quagmire.
"Sure enough!" Zhao Xiao was secretly happy, then picked up a bunch of utensils used to arrange the altar ceremony, turned his head and said to Jiang Ru: "Let's go first, you can take people to the bottom of Yunyan Peak." ”
After saying this, Zhao Xiao and Lu Wangji stepped into the circle of shrinking the earth together, their figures disappeared out of thin air in a flash, and the ground returned to normal.
After a period of shaking and crowding, Zhao Xiao and the two of them followed the earth's veins, directly to Yunyan Peak, raised their eyes to see a towering giant peak, towering from the ground, the naked eye can see that the clouds are guided by the upright momentum of the peaks, rising upward, and condensing and falling in the distance, and are pulled by the veins of Yunyan Peak, and then turn around and converge again.
In this way, the sea of clouds is churning endlessly, and the high heavenly clear qi is gradually condensed invisibly, and it is contained into a blessed land and an enchantment of nature.
"It deserves to be a blessed land of immortals!" Even the well-informed Zhao Xiao couldn't help but be amazed when he came to Yunyan Peak.
Lu Wangji asked, "Such a blessed land, there is no immortal cultivator to occupy it?" ”
"In the past, there were, the sect and the mountain have the same name, and they are both called Yunyan Peak." Zhao Xiao looked around and found that he was standing on a platform, and the formation was paved with jade dust mica under his feet, which was specially used to connect and shrink the ground.
"Looking at this withered scene, I think that the inheritance of Yunyan Peak has long been severed." Lu Wangji said: "Even if the cultivation of the successors is shallow later, they should not give up such a blessed land. ”
"Yunyan Peak was involved in the war at the end of Tianxia, and the disciples of the sect were completely damaged." Zhao Xiao's tone paused after he said this, if the Yunyan Peak vein was really broken, how did the teacher and Yang Liujun find this place to forge the divine sword?
Liang Tao swept through Huaxu's domestic immortal cultivation sect decades ago and occupied all the blessed lands, why did he leave out this Yunyan Peak? If you talk about the meteorological pattern, this Yunyan Peak is not far behind the Lung Mountain.
The only possible explanation is that before the Divine Sword was cast, Yunyan Peak was shrouded and hidden by the formation enchantment, and even Liang Tao didn't notice it.
And being able to know where Yunyan Peak is located and enter and exit the formation enchantment freely can only be a disciple of Yunyan Peak.
Zhao Xiao pondered for a while, Yang Liujun's cultivation mana was very different from other Chiyun Du cultivators, I don't know if he was still a prince and noble, so he cultivated the magic of Yunyan Peak.
However, Zhao Xiao looked around and found that Yunyan Peak was empty, and Liang Tao didn't even arrange for the Chongxuan Pavilion disciples to stay behind. It is said that in the end, Liang Tao eliminated the remnants of Chiyundu at the foot of the mountain, he should know very well that this place is unusual, how could he be negligent?
As soon as his mind moved, Zhao Xiao used the Yingxuan Zhaojing technique, and then silently recited the "Nine Heavens Purple Wendan Chapter", and the true qi seal hovered above.
After a while, there seemed to be a trace of resonance in the high places of the peaks, which was the Cave Sky Cloud Seal cast by Liang Tao, faintly connected with the enchantment outside the mountain.
Seeing this, Zhao Xiao secretly said: "Cast the Dongtian Cloud Seal and set up a forbidden surveillance, if someone comes to Yunyan Peak, it will immediately arouse Liang Tao's vigilance." I didn't send anyone to garrison it, just to see if anyone would turn back to this place, so that we could determine the person who forged the divine sword. ”
Yang Liujun is dead, Liang Tao's intention for this move is obviously expected to be someone else who forges the Divine Sword, maybe he has already suspected Zhang Duanjing, but he can't be sure. And looking at the current situation, Zhang Duanjing never set foot in Yunyan Peak again.
"Could it be that the teacher is the disciple of Yunyan Peak?" Zhao Xiao couldn't conclude for a while that Zhang Duanjing was similar to him, erudite and talented, and proficient in various techniques, and he couldn't see the foundation of the teacher.
However, since he already knew that his teacher Zhang Duanjing was involved in the forging of the Divine Sword, whether he was from Yunyan Peak or not was not important to Zhao Xiao.
When Zhao Huang carried a large number of cloth altar utensils into the belly of the peak, he saw the wide and vast inner wall of the cave, covered with mottled sword marks, as if a fierce battle had taken place here.
Lu Wangji pressed the strings with his hand, plucked a few times, and the sound of the piano echoed in the belly of the mountain, and only after a moment did he say: "It seems that someone is spreading qi on the wall and setting up a sword qi array." However, the formation has been broken, and the sword qi has also dissipated. ”
Zhao Xiao didn't have to think about it, he could conclude that the person who broke the formation was Liang Tao.
"Zhang Duanjing should have expected Yang Liujun's defeat, so he set up a formation here to test Liang Tao's cultivation for mana." Lingxiao said suddenly.
Zhao Xiao looked at a Kunlun jade pedestal, but unfortunately it was already full of cracks, and there were traces of burning fire, which made the pure qi contained in Kunlun jade dissipate.
"It's like a teacher's practice, and that's what he taught me." Zhao Xiao said secretly: "In the face of a strong enemy, instead of fighting head-on, it is better to set up many traps to consume its strength and test its flaws." ”
Ling Xiao said coldly: "But with Liang Tao's cultivation, it is ridiculous to want to kill him with an ordinary formation." ”
Zhao Xiao suddenly remembered something: "Even a living immortal like Liang Tao is so difficult to deal with, how did you get to the point where you are now after being defeated by the True Form Law Body?" ”
"They are also immortals, so they naturally have a way to punish immortals." Ling Xiao did not elaborate: "It's Zhang Duanjing, who has not become an immortal after all, he is just a mortal, and he actually plans to forge a divine sword and kill an immortal, which is not arrogant." ”
"The teacher just wants to kill Liang Tao." Zhao Xiao said.
"Really? I don't think so. Ling Xiao suddenly laughed: "If you just want to deal with Liang Tao, when you tell Liang Tao about the consequences that he will face when he ascends to the altar, he can completely stop." I'm afraid that what he has a big plan is far more than just killing a Liang Tao. ”
Zhao Xiao was secretly shocked when he heard this: "It's impossible for the teacher to deal with the Heavenly Immortal Family, right?" ”
"The sword is in the mortal dust, so naturally it can't hurt the Heavenly Immortals." Ling Xiao said: "But what if the immortal family goes down to the world? ”
Zhao Xiao smiled bitterly: "Now that this dusty world is in chaos, why do you want to go down to earth?" Isn't it self-inflicted? ”
"Don't forget, Liang Tao's intention to create a kingdom of Taoism on earth is also asking for trouble." Ling Xiao said: "Mr. Jingming in Chiyundu, his words are also to the point of the immortal family's mysteries. The higher the attainment of the immortals, the easier it is to think that what they have cultivated and realized is directly directed to the Great Dao, and to feel that only they can lead sentient beings and transform the mundane. ”
Zhao Xiao was puzzled: "Isn't this the view of the portal?" Can't we dissolve other views and learn from each other's strengths? ”
Lingxiao explained: "Mortals who are paranoid and selfish for the sake of the portal, or who defend, or attack and slander, are blind and short-sighted. The immortal family is very different, because of this way to achieve immortality and long-term vision, is a verifiable and feasible fruit, so the immortal family is moved to enlighten sentient beings, to attract the mundane, this kind of gateway view, is it comparable to ordinary people? ”
Zhao Xiao nodded silently, the view of the mortal portal is to safeguard interests and embezzle and occupy, while the immortal family is to open the portal and attract sentient beings, this really can't be equaled.
"In this way, it's not a bad thing for the Immortal Family to get involved in mortal dust?" Zhao Xiao said: "If there is an immortal family, maybe there will not be so much chaos." ”
"Stupid." Ling Xiao directly refuted and said, "Haven't you thought that all the chaos in Kunlun Continent now is caused by the interference of various immortal families in the world? They don't even have to take the initiative to take action, just click on the disciples of the mortal world to fan the chaos.
You may have been too close to Liang Tao, and you didn't think that just by staying in the world, he had a strong appeal to the disciples of the Chongxuan Pavilion and other people who were attached to him? And how strong will there be a deterrent to those who are fighting against them? ”
Zhao Xiao pursed his lips and pondered, and when he saw him like this, he didn't bother much, and sat on the ground and stroked the piano.
"You always said that you were burdened, but you didn't understand that not only Liang Tao himself bears a heavy burden, but others also have to face the consequences of what he did." Ling Xiao said: "The higher the power, the more famous the reputation, the more widely implicated every move, and the heavier the luck will be. One Liang Tao is still like this, if a few more immortals interfere in the world, what do you think will happen in this world? ”
Zhao Xiao's heart was cold, and Ling Xiao said: "Some things are difficult to measure by right and wrong, the immortal family intends to open the door and attract the mundane, you can't say that they are wrong, but the entanglement of mundane interests often makes the Dharma propagation heart a cause of disaster." And the immortal family's Taoist heart is extraordinary, and people can change it, and persuasion cannot be persuaded. ”
"So the teacher wants to forge the divine sword to prevent the immortal family from interfering in the earthly world?" Zhao Xiao asked.
"That's pretty much it." Lingxiao said.
Zhao Xiao felt that he couldn't comprehend it thoroughly for a while, and asked again: "Then don't you object?" ”
"If you don't keep quiet, you will go down to the world, bear the burden of collusion, and be deeply involved in murder and robbery...... This is often inseparable. Ling Xiao said coldly: "Since you know the root of the curse, don't interfere with mortal dust from the beginning." Even though Zhang Duanjing's wisdom is outstanding, his long sword is empty, and he can't hurt the heavenly immortals. ”
"Maybe that's what the teacher is after." Zhao Xiao sighed: "The immortal family is high on the top of the clouds, quietly watching the changes of the red dust, so that the immortals are safe and do not hurt each other." ”
"But before that, there must be an immortal family who is ambushed by the sword to prove the benefits of the sword." Ling Xiao said: "Otherwise, you will not be able to deter the heavenly immortals. ”
"So the teacher has to attack Liang Tao no matter what." Zhao Xiao's heart was extremely entangled.
Things have reached this point, it has nothing to do with personal grudges, Liang Tao wants to create a human Taoist country, and pass through the two ways of immortals and gods, and take charge of Weifu alone, Zhang Duanjing wants to prevent the immortal family from being involved in the world, and clearly define the difference between immortals and mortals. The two are incompatible, and they are destined to have only one war.
But Zhao Xiao really didn't want to see this situation, first, he didn't want the teacher to be in danger, and secondly, Liang Tao's life and death, it was better to leave it to heaven and earth to create and all living beings to decide, if Liang Tao could cross this hurdle, it would be a different way.
"Luo Xixian said that you are a soft bone, but he is really right." Ling Xiao said: "Until now, you still pin your hopes on Liang Tao. Without Liang Tao, you hope that other immortal families can resolve the chaos in the world. If you are always like this, you will not be able to establish the spiritual Dao heart, and it will be difficult for you to become an immortal in the future. ”
"Fetal fairy? It's still far away. Zhao Huang said: "Although Xuanzhu enters the Mud Pill Palace, it still needs to be nourished and strengthened, and then converge with the divine energy, feed back the hundreds of veins of the body, moisten the five internal organs, and gradually refine the shape and change the quality, so that the inside and outside are thorough, and there is a chance to conceive an immortal." ”
"What you are talking about is the work of life, not the way of exhaustion." Lingxiao said: "If the spirit is not kept, the Tao is not clear." If you encounter the thoughts of gain and loss, the feelings of betrayal, and the situation of adversity, can you keep a little wisdom and not be transferred or seized? ”
Zhao Xiao didn't answer, and Ling Xiao said: "You also know that cultivating immortals is a selfish achievement, but you don't know where this selfishness comes from. The so-called selfishness is a little bit of wisdom hanging in the void, not relying on it, not stagnation and not drowning, so that it can be said that my life is up to me, and there is no hindrance.
If there is such a realm, it is natural that he will not pin the opportunity to succeed to others, even if it is a master of the immortal family, the gods and the earth, he will not be in sight. Only in this way can we talk about valuing oneself and valuing oneself, instead of doing evil and good for the sake of one's desires.
After you left Dongshengdu, you may be majestic in the eyes of others, but you are used by Liang Tao and the lord of the country. In fact, it's okay to just use it, but you shouldn't think of yourself as a hawk and a dog and rely on others for success or failure. ”
"I'm not deprecating myself." Zhao Xiao said.
"Don't be in a hurry to answer me, there are some things that you may not be able to understand for a while." Lingxiao's words made Zhao Xiao fall silent.
……
Xin Taicheng looked at the north from afar, and the number of heaven and earth qi was unpredictable, but in his eyes, it was mysterious.
After calculating for a moment, Xin Taicheng nodded slightly, turned around and walked down the high platform, and saw that Mrs. Zhu Zi had been waiting for a long time, and asked, "How is it?" What extent did Zhao Xiao arrange the mandala? ”
Xin Taicheng gave a slight salute and replied: "Just now, the clouds in the north sky are angry and angry, it should be that the North Pole of the altar has been laid. In this way, most of the mandala has been arranged, and Zhao Xiao will turn southbound later. ”
"Where is the North Pole?" Mrs. Zhu Zi asked.
"Yunyan Peak." Xin Taicheng added: "It happens to be the same place as when the Chiyun Chaos Party forged the Divine Sword. ”
Mrs. Zhu Zi frowned and said, "How can it be that kind of place?" Are you wrong? ”
"There should be no deviation, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to the field to investigate." Xin Taicheng was not annoyed by the questioning: "Some things did the lower officials only understand later, if the chaotic party wants to forge that kind of divine sword, it can't be carried out in the ordinary realm, and it must choose the place where heaven and earth qi meet. It's just that...... Yunyan Peak has been hidden for a long time, and now the qi is rushing straight to Xiao Han, which makes the lower officials find a trace of abnormality. ”
"What kind of abnormality?"
"It is rumored that the Yunyan Peak Gate has long been destroyed, and the inheritance has been severed." Xin Taicheng said: "But when I went down to the official, I saw that there was still a trace of qi that was still counting, indicating that there were still disciples of Yunyan Peak in this world. ”
"It's not surprising." Mrs. Zhu Zi said casually.
"Xia Guan is slightly puzzled." Xin Taicheng continued: "It is said that Yunyan Peak disappeared, but it reappeared when the chaotic party rebelled, could it be that his disciples colluded with the chaotic party? Moreover, Xia Guan found that the qi of this Yunyan Peak Sect was quite strong, and from the astrological signs, there were faint traces of violation. ”
"Oh? Who is this Yunyan Peak Sect going to violate? Mrs. Zhu Zi asked curiously.
Xin Taicheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This ...... It's really embarrassing. The aura spread in all directions, as if to obscure the starlight. Correspondingly, it can't be to infringe on the Heavenly Immortals, right? ”
When Mrs. Zhu Zi heard this, her face turned slightly cold. Xin Taicheng was afraid of saying the wrong thing, so he bowed and said: "Those are all the presumptuous words of the lower officials, and please don't take Mrs. Zhu Zi seriously." ”
Mrs. Zhu Zi returned to a dignified smile: "I don't take it seriously, please don't spread this matter to Xin Taicheng." ”
