Chapter 288: Stone Bridge
Because before entering the Sword Saint Ruins, Yehong and Murong Jingxue had not done a detailed understanding of the Sword Saint Ruins, and after coming in, their eyes were completely black and they didn't know where to go, so they just relied on their own understanding to move towards the place where the sword intent was strong.
Now with Ouyang Yang, as the young owner of the Sword Casting Villa, the people of the Sword Casting Villa don't know how many times they have come in, and it is impossible not to know the situation in the Sword Saint Ruins, so under Ye Hong's vague suggestion, Murong Jingxue inquired with Ouyang Yang to find out what the situation is in the Sword Saint Ruins, whether there is a map, and where is the Sword Intent Grass.
Ouyang Yang also knew everything, and for what Murong Jingxue wanted to know, there was no hidden information and everything. In this way, Murong Jingxue and Ye Hong finally had a direction to find the Sword Intent Grass and knew where to go.
After listening to Ouyang Yang's story, Ye Hong also had a general understanding of the situation in the Sword Saint Ruins, which were not very large, and were mainly divided into two areas, bounded by a deep ditch, one was the desert he had walked through, and the other was the hilly land opposite the deep ditch, where the real Sword Saint Ruins were located.
The desert has no resources other than sword blades and desolation, and no one has explored how big this desert is. According to Ouyang Yang, because there are no heavenly and earthly treasure cultivation resources in the desert, and the sword blades are flying wildly, not many people are willing to explore, even if they come back from exploration, there is no gain, some of them die in the desert, and even more have not had time to go out, and there are not a few who have become sword slaves, so they know very little about the situation in the desert.
On the other side, where the real Sword Saint ruins are, according to Ouyang Yang, there is a sword mound and a palace. There are more than a thousand swords in the sword mound, the quality varies from the yellow level to the heaven level, and there are even peerless divine weapons among them, but those swords are all obtained by those who are destined, and if you want to get the sword, you still need to pass the test to be recognized.
There are many natural treasures and opportunities left in the palace, such as the inheritance of the Sword Saint, but I heard Ouyang Yang say that the inheritance of the Sword Saint is still there and has not been obtained by anyone, which is why several major sects have sealed the relics of the Sword Saint and only opened it once every few years. The major sects all want to get the inheritance of the Sword Saint, and most of the places to enter the Sword Saint Ruins are in their own hands, and only a small number of places to enter the Sword Saint Ruins are released.
"And what's in this ravine, do you know?"
Ouyang Yangyang glanced at the deep ditch next to him with jealousy, and said, "I don't know what is in this deep ditch, but according to those who have entered the Sword Saint Ruins before, this deep ditch is a place of great evil, the most dangerous place in the entire Sword Saint Ruins, and none of the people who have entered it can come out alive." ”
"Even if you are an emperor-level person, you won't survive if you go in?" Murong Jingxue'e frowned and stared at the deep ditch.
Ouyang Yang nodded and said, "According to the records in the villa, there was once an emperor-level ninth-order emperor who entered the deep ditch in order to seek an opportunity to break through, but he didn't come out after that, and died in it. ”
Murong Jingxue's brows furrowed even deeper, and she said to herself, "Emperor-level ninth-order people can die here, what is hidden here?" It's getting more and more curious. ”
Murong Jingxue had such thoughts, and Ye Hong was not it, she was full of curiosity about this deep ditch, and she really wanted to go down to find out, but when she heard Ouyang Yang's description, the danger was so high that even the emperor-level ninth-order ones were not spared, and if she went down to this realm, would she die.
Ouyang Yang saw Murong Jingxue staring at the deep ditch, as if he was thinking about going in to explore, Ouyang Yang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly dissuaded:
"Your Highness the Holy Maiden can't go into this deep ditch! It's too dangerous! If something happens to you, we won't be able to explain to the Emperor of Light! ”
After thinking about it for a while, Ye Hong also stepped forward and persuaded him: "Your Highness the Holy Maiden, why don't you go to the Sword Intent Grass first!" It's not too late to explore this deep ditch after getting the Sword Intent Grass. ”
"This brother is right, Your Highness the Holy Maiden, let's go to the Sword Saint Ruins Palace on the opposite side first!" Ouyang Yang hurriedly agreed, both public and private, he really didn't want Murong Jingxue to risk going into the deep ditch.
"Did I say I wanted to go in? You two are not thinking too much! Murong Jingxue rolled her eyes and said.
Ouyang Yang immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Murong Jingxue say this, as long as Murong Jingxue didn't plan to go into the deep ditch. But Murong Jingxue's words after that made Ouyang Yang lift his heart again.
"Just according to what Sayoko said, go find the sword intent grass first, and then enter the deep ditch to explore."
As soon as he said go, he came to a stone bridge under the guidance of Ouyang Yang. Listening to Ouyang Yang's introduction, this stone bridge is the only way to cross a deep ditch and reach the Sword Saint Palace from the desert.
Near, as Ouyang Yang said, this stone bridge spans the entire deep ditch, connecting the two places, and the stone bridge is very strong, it has not been sucked into the deep ditch, I don't know what material the stone bridge is made of, as if it grows on both banks.
At this time, you can see that there are three or five people on the stone bridge who are moving forward or cultivating cross-legged, and those people are all the people from the Sword Forging Villa who they saw at the entrance before, and they are some of the people who were selected to enter the Sword Saint Ruins.
Seeing those people moving slowly and with difficulty at the bridge, Yehong and Murong Jingxue both frowned thoughtfully.
"There's a problem with this stone bridge?"
Ouyang Yang explained: "Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden guessed correctly, there is sword intent coercion on this stone bridge, if you want to cross the bridge, you must be able to resist the powerful sword intent coercion, but this is not a difficult thing for Her Royal Highness who has the imperial realm, it's just ...... Your retinue may not be able to get by, so you have to stay here. ”
"You go and try!"
Yehong was also eager to try, hearing that Murong Jingxue let him try on the bridge first, and then set off to step on the stone bridge, as soon as his front foot fell, Yehong felt the pressure, but it was not very strong, and he was completely able to deal with it easily.
Feeling that there was not much pressure, Ye Hong immediately quickened his pace, and immediately caught up with the Sword Casting Villa disciple at the end of the stone bridge. Seeing that Yehong was able to catch up with the people of Sword Casting Villa so quickly, Ouyang Yang of the bridgehead seemed to have no pressure when running on the stone bridge, and suddenly his eyes widened and he felt unbelievable.
He knew very well that there were several people in the Sword Casting Villa on the stone bridge who were in the realm of cultivation, and which one was not higher than Yehong, but he had never seen Yehong so easy.
"It doesn't seem to be difficult, little sheep, let's go too!"
Murong Jingxue saw that Yehong was able to deal with it, and had already walked half of the stone bridge, and then stepped on the stone bridge, and instantly felt the power of the sword intent on the stone bridge, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, and she snorted disdainfully, and her speed suddenly accelerated.
Seeing this, Ouyang Yang hurriedly followed closely, and Ouyang Yang, who was in the early stage of the law phase, was also walking on the stone bridge as if he were on the ground, and he was very little affected by the coercion of the sword intent.
At this time, Yehong had already surpassed the two people in the Sword Casting Villa on the stone bridge, and reached the middle and rear break of the stone bridge, and his speed slowed down a lot, because Yehong felt a huge pressure, making it difficult for him to move an inch.
The sword intent pressure on the stone bridge is gradually strengthened, the closer to the opposite bank, the stronger the sword intent pressure on the stone bridge, Ye Hong has already noticed it in the road ahead, but he didn't expect it to become so strong.
The coercion of sword intent is not only aimed at the physical body, but also on the divine soul, Yehong feels that his physical body can still withstand the pressure of sword intent, but the divine soul can't bear it, if he advances further, his soul will definitely be crushed.
"It's too big now, what should I do next?" Yehong gritted his teeth and persisted.
Looking at the disciples of the Sword Casting Villa on the bridge, those who could no longer advance would sit down and practice cross-legged, and after a while, they could take a step or two forward, and Yehong immediately followed suit.
When Ye Hong gritted his teeth and sat down cross-legged, as soon as he started his mental method cultivation, he remembered a serious matter, he couldn't cultivate now, and it would speed up the lithification of his body.
Ye Hong had no choice, so he could only quickly think about how to deal with it in his mind, "This pressure is not like ordinary realm coercion, otherwise I would not have been able to come here, surpassing the disciples of Sword Casting Mountain Villa whose realm is so much higher than mine." What is the purpose of a bridge here? It can't be to prevent people from passing, and there must be ulterior motives. ”
Ye Hong's heart quickly reviewed everything about the Sword Saint Ruins, 'Sword Saint Ruins, Sword Intent, Sword Saint, Inheritance, Chance...... I seem to get it! ’
"This stone bridge is a trial! There is sword intent in the coercion, which is a test of the comprehension of sword intent. ”
Ye Hong glanced at the disciples of the Sword Casting Villa, and found that his body was surrounded by sword intent, and the sword intent was cultivated, and he was beginning to show his edge, but his degree was different, and he was immediately more sure of his speculation.
"Feel the sword intent to counteract the coercion, and sure enough!"
Knowing what the problem was, Yehong immediately began to sit cross-legged and comprehend the sword intent on the stone bridge. Here, Murong Jingxue went all the way without the slightest pressure, and after a while, she walked to the middle of the stone bridge.
And here, you can have a more complete view of the deep ditch, the curious Murong Jingxue looked at the deep ditch again from the stone bridge, and faintly saw a faint red light in the deepest part of the bottom of the deep ditch. Staring at that red light, Murong Jingxue's eyes changed, as if her soul had been taken away and froze in place.
Ouyang Yang, who found that Murong Jingxue was abnormal, was very puzzled, and when he saw Murong Jingxue stunned and didn't leave, he immediately shouted from the side:
"Your Highness? Your Highness! Are you okay? ”
Murong Jingxue was awakened by Ouyang Yang's shout, shook her head violently, her pupils shrank, and she didn't dare to stare into the depths of the deep ditch anymore.
"It's okay, let's keep walking!"
Ouyang Yang didn't think so, just thought it was Murong Jingxue who was distracted just now, and continued to walk towards the other side. Murong Jingxue frowned, looked back, quickly glanced at the deep ditch, retracted her gaze and continued to move forward.
Murong Jingxue recalled the feeling of palpitations just now, and suddenly felt uncomfortable, so she asked Ouyang Yang next to her, "Little sheep, do you have detailed information in your villa to record this Sword Saint Ruins?" ”
"There must be information, if His Highness the Holy Maiden needs it, I will ask my father to find it for you, he knows more about the Sword Saint Ruins than me."
"Okay, I want all the information about the appearance of the Juggernaut Ruins so far, and get them to me as soon as possible after I go out of the Juggernaut Ruins." Murong Jingxue said solemnly.
As the distance on the stone bridge became farther and farther, and the distance from the other side became closer and closer, Murong Jingxue also discovered the problem of the stone bridge, and the sword intent coercion strengthened himself must also pay attention to it.
Ouyang Yang's situation was much worse than Murong Jingxue's, and his pace slowed down.
"Every step of the sword intent will strengthen one point, this is both a test and an opportunity, Your Highness the Holy Maiden, I may not be able to keep up with your speed, you go first! We will meet on the other side of the bridge, I need to deepen my understanding of the sword intent on the bridge, if Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden is interested, you can also stop and comprehend the sword intent, on this stone bridge is of great help to the sword intent. ”
Murong Jingxue had no interest in the comprehension of the sword intent, so she immediately stopped caring about Ouyang Yang and continued to walk towards the opposite bank, catching up with Ye Hong in three or two steps and arriving at Ye Hong's location.
