Chapter 6 The Past of Tianjizi
At that moment, Qu Wuming and Han Tian both felt a trace of something strange in the sea of knowledge, as if there was something more in the depths of their souls, but it was only a moment before it returned to normal, and it was no longer noticeable.
Qu Wuming smiled, patted Han Tian on the shoulder and said, "Good brother, in the future, your business will be my business, and your friends will be my friends!" β
As he spoke, Qu Wuming's gaze swept across the compound, releasing the huge spiritual pressure in the middle stage of his transformation, and suddenly set off a gust of wind in this spacious third-level courtyard!
The huge spiritual pressure produced a strong sense of oppression, which made many of the guests present have a fear from the depths of their souls - and Qu Wuming's spiritual pressure also contained a strong evil aura, which was unique to countless killings, and it made everyone feel as if they had fallen into the purgatory of the sea of blood in an instant!
Qu Wuming's voice echoed in the courtyard like a bell, and clearly fell into everyone's ears: "You will all help the Dianyun family more in the future, otherwise, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite!" β
"Yes!"
"Definitely, definitely!"
"Senior Qu, please rest assured!"
There was a cacophony of answers from among the guests.
"Hehe, Brother Han Tian, I will be your eldest brother in the future, I will naturally inquire about your affairs slowly in the future, and I will not be a confused big brother who doesn't know anything." Qu Wuming grinned, "I just saw that your speed when you fought was good, and it just so happened that the eldest brother also liked this, so let's give this exercise to you to play, it should be regarded as a meeting gift!" β
As he spoke, Qu Wuming threw a jade slip to Han Tian.
Han Tian hurriedly took the jade slip and pasted it on his forehead.
"Body Law Decision...... "A Thousand Shadows Streamer"?"
"Well, it may be a little different from your body method, but the speed may not be bad, when this thousand shadow streamer is practiced to the fullest, the body method is like a real illusion, which is elusive, especially at night, at most, it can conjure up hundreds of phantoms, the real body is hidden in it, whether it is killing the enemy or escaping, it is infinitely useful." Qu Wuming said, "It's just that it's not easy to cultivate this method, let's learn to play." β
"Thank you for the song...... Thank you, big brother! Han Tian hurriedly said with his hand, then took out a narrow stone box from the storage ring, held it with both hands, and respectfully handed it to Qu Wuming, "Big brother, although this sword is a broken sword, it is extremely sharp, and it should be regarded as a unique thing in the Eastern Continent, please laugh at it!" β
"Huh? Why is this stone box a little familiar......" Qu Wuming felt familiar at first sight, took the stone box curiously, and after opening it gently, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Yuansha Sword!" β
"Big brother knows about this sword?" Han Tian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. Since this sword was auctioned off, it had never been taken out to show people, and Qu Wuming actually called out its name at a glance.
"So you took the shot that day!" Qu Wuming smiled, picked up the sword and looked at it carefully, remembering an auction he had participated in before, and couldn't help but feel a little speechless.
"Big brother was there at the time?" Han Tian asked.
"What's more?! I took a fancy to this sword at a glance, and I said that I must clap it in my hand! Qu Wuming's fingers gently stroked the spine of the sword, feeling the chill coming from the sword body, "But at that time, as soon as I bid, one person will add one hundred spirit stones, and as soon as I bid, that person will add one hundred and zero stones...... The point is, he seems to be very rich, and he doesn't add more every time, only a hundred! Finally, when he snatched the sword out of my hand, I hated it so much that I hated it, haha......"
Han Tian: "......"
"Hehe, I didn't expect that the person who took the picture of him actually became my brother, and this sword finally came to my hand...... This is called fate, wonderful! Qu Wuming put the Yuansha Sword into the storage ring, suddenly put away his joking face, and said solemnly to Han Tian and Yun Feng, "Although I don't know what the play played by Tianjizi means today, but listening to the words of the eldest brother, whenever you encounter Tianjizi in the future, you must be more careful!" β
Han Tian, Yun Feng and the others were stunned when they heard this, and asked with some puzzlement, "How do you say this, big brother?" β
"I have sworn to you as a brother with the demon in my heart, so naturally I will not deceive you!" The past gradually surfaced in Qu Wuming's mind, "I've actually been thinking about what kind of person Tianjizi is......"
"Tianjizi, in the rumors of the cultivation world, is nothing more than saying that he is a 'master outside the world', 'the dragon sees the head but does not see the tail', 'mysterious and eccentric', 'does what he wants', and 'can peep into the heavens'...... No one seemed to know who his name was, no one knew his true cultivation, no one knew how long he lived, no one knew what he wanted to do...... But my gut tells me that he can't be trusted. As you know, the first time I met him, it was more than a thousand years ago, when I only had the cultivation of the Yuan Infant Stage, and he was already the cultivation of the Transformation Stageβit seems exactly the same as today's cultivation......"
"This was cultivated more than a thousand years ago?!" Han Tian and the others were stunned when they heard this.
Yun Hua, the ancestor of the Yun family on the side, also spoke at this time: "I saw Tianjizi once hundreds of years ago, and his cultivation and aura seemed to be exactly the same as today. β
"This is a bit unreasonable...... Han Tian frowned slightly, looked at everyone and said, "During the god transformation period, at most once every three hundred years old, a small heavenly tribulation, after that, it will naturally improve a layer of cultivation, and if it doesn't pass, it will disappear, and a body of cultivation will return to heaven and earth." If I remember correctly, the earliest legend about the predecessors of Tianjizi is probably ......"
Qu Wuming nodded, took over the conversation and said, "It's been more than 10,000 years!" β
Sikong Ying'er hesitated a little and said, "Could it be that he is practicing some special exercises?" β
"No matter how special the exercises are, they can't escape the constraints of the Heavenly Dao. The little heavenly tribulation that is at most once in the three hundred years of the transformation period has never heard of an exception, and the small heavenly tribulation is only advanced, not postponed, unless it is the method of stopping life with blood coagulation. Han Tian said, "But even if it is the method of blood coagulation and stopping longevity, it is just a temporary seal of longevity growth, once the seal is lifted, the small heavenly tribulation once in three hundred years will still come as scheduled." Big brother, will Tianjizi regularly clot blood and stop life and disappear for a period of time? β
"He? Hehe...... I have quietly done some investigations, and it seems that over the past 10,000 years, many major events have had his shadow behind them. Qu Wuming snorted coldly and said, "He has definitely not used the method of blood coagulation to stop life." β
"Whether it is a special practice or some other method, Tianjizi's cultivation remains unchanged but he can live forever, and the secret of this is afraid that we can't easily break it. Big brother, since you said that you should be more wary of Tianjizi, apart from intuition, what other information can you share with us? β
"That's nature!" Qu Wuming lifted the wine jug and poured himself a glass, the memories came to his heart, and his eyes gradually became deeper, "The first time I saw him, it was on the edge of the Hanhai Desert, where there was a small town ......"
β¦β¦
There is a huge desert on the west coast of the Eastern Continent, called the Hanhai Desert, which connects the Yunzhi Plateau in the east and the vast sea in the west.
Despite its name, the landscape is actually quite complex. On the side connecting the Yunzhi Plateau, there is a mountain range dominated by rugged rocky mountains, like a barrier, forcibly cutting off the Yunzhi Plateau. On the western side of the mountain range, the terrain gradually decreases, gradually becoming mainly hilly, and finally a vast desert leads to the sea.
In the midst of the hills and deserts, there are a few oases scattered among them.
Despite the vast desert, there is a rainy season of nearly a month every year, and every July or so, dark clouds roll in from the sea to the west, bringing nearly a month of abundant rain to the desert. Whenever the rain passes, the Hanhai Desert will turn into a world of lakes, large and small lakes are like mirrors, dotted in the sea of sand, reflecting the blue sky, beautiful.
However, the beauty doesn't last long. Just a few days after the end of the rainy season, the lakes disappear again, after all, heat and drought are the real masters.
But this rainy season of just one month will still leave a lot of things in the Hanhai Desert, such as the emerald oases dotted in the desert, as if inlaid on the golden background board, such as the abundant underground water source for the residents of those small towns on the edge of the desert to survive.
Although natural resources are relatively scarce, there are still more than ten small towns scattered in the vast edge of the Hanhai Desert. These towns are all on the road connecting the kingdoms of Johan and Isa, and many caravans that travel between the two countries throughout the year will choose to settle in these towns to replenish their supplies.
There is also a very special feature of the Hanhai Desert.
This is a rare place in the Eastern Regions Continent where the spiritual energy is thin, there are no spiritual veins underground, and there is no spiritual spring on the ground. As a result, the cultivators have no interest in this place, and almost never set foot here unless they have to. The people living in these small towns would not normally encounter a single cultivator passing by for decades.
However, there is a small town that still stubbornly chooses a name close to the cultivators - Juxian Town.
In Juxian Town, there is an inn called Juxian Inn.
The appearance of the Juxian Inn looks a little dilapidated, even the courtyard wall built of bluestone has been somewhat damaged, a high pole stands quietly in the middle of the courtyard, and a large flag with a broken edge is hung high, with two big characters embroidered on it: Juxian.
Behind the high pole is a small three-storey building.
The three-storey building is the tail of the scorpion in the entire Juxian Town-the only one. However, what is not commensurate with the scale of this small building is that the exterior wall of the building is already very mottled, and the roof of the building is already broken and blue, which is somewhat dilapidated.
However, the beam and column frame of this small building is built by more than 100 years of fine nanmu, although it has gone through many years, although it seems to have been through vicissitudes, but the building itself is still very strong, it seems that it can stand in this Juxian Town until the sky is old.
