Chapter 4: The Mysterious Sword
In a moment of dizziness, Gao Yun's consciousness gradually blurred.
Vaguely I saw a tiny point of light faintly appearing in the darkness in front of me.
The point of light expanded rapidly, illuminating his entire body white, and Gao Yun couldn't help but close his eyes......
His feet suddenly sank, as if he had stepped on something.
Gao Yun opened his eyes.
In front of him was a dark passage about two meters high and one meter wide, dark and unclear.
On both sides of the passage, two rows of everlasting lamps lit with rosin are neatly arranged.
The lights swayed gently in the wind emitted a terrifying blue glow.
"What was that glowing thing just now?" Gao Yun looked at Liu Yue with an inquiring gaze.
"It's a teleportation circle that can teleport the person who activates it to a pre-set location. ”
Teleportation Circle?
Gao Yun, who had no learning foundation, nodded as if he didn't understand.
"What is this place?"
Liu Yue shook his head: "I don't know, but I sensed that there was a very powerful aura lurking inside." Follow behind me and don't get too far away. ”
After giving Gao Yun's instructions, she raised her feet and walked forward.
Gao Yun and Liu Yue looked left and right, cautiously and slowly moving forward.
In addition to the sound of the two of them breathing, the only sound in the passage was the sound of water droplets falling to the ground.
A shadow suddenly appeared in front of Gao Yun's eyes, and a translucent gray ghost floated out of the darkness.
Gao Yun was dumbfounded and hurriedly took a step back.
As soon as he took a step back, Liu Yue had already emitted a white light, and the ghost was destroyed in an instant.
Gao Yun was stunned, and his voice still had a slight trill: "What was that just now?"
Liu Yue explained: "In this kind of dark and damp place, there will be some low-level creatures of the soul clan, just little ghosts, although they look terrifying, they have no destructive power, so there is no need to be afraid." ”
Looking at Liu Yue's calm appearance, Gao Yun blushed and lowered his head, secretly scolding himself for being too useless, and couldn't help but silently admonish himself in his heart to muster up courage.
The two continued to walk along the passage.
Along the way, he encountered a lot of low-level ghosts and ghosts, all of which were easily solved by Liu Yue. Looking at Liu Yue's neat skills and agile posture, Gao Yun was secretly envious.
The passage was winding and twisting, and the two of them didn't know how long they had walked.
Finally, they came to an empty stone room.
The reason why it is said to be empty is because there is almost nothing in this stone chamber.
Only on the four walls of the stone chamber are obscure and strange graffiti, which seem to be some kind of writing. Gao Yun had never seen this kind of strange writing, and he turned to Liu Yue with doubts, only to see Liu Yue's eyes staring at the center of the stone room.
In the center of the stone chamber, the only thing here that can be called a single thing is a sword half-suspended in the air!
On the cold and shiny sword body, there was a wisp of flowing water that swirled endlessly, and the light continued to rotate and change shape on the broad sword body, and the color emitted also flickered and changed with the change of shape.
Gao Yun looked at this sword with a surprised face, and there was a warm current in his heart, as if there was a very familiar aura!
The length of the sword is about four feet, which is slightly longer than a normal sword. The straight and slender sword has a narrow and thin line from the tip to the hilt, and there is still a trace of blood left in the grooves of the line, and the blood color is dark red and dull, obviously a long time has passed.
In stark contrast to the vicissitudes of the sword, the blades on both sides were still extremely sharp, shining with a dazzling cold light under the illumination of the wall lamp.
The hilt of the sword is carved with delicate patterns, which seem to be stacked one after another with a certain meaning.
Gao Yun's eyes stared at the fine lines on the sword body and the strange symbols on the hilt, and his breathing became increasingly rapid.
A flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, conveying some important information, but when he tried to capture the memory with his heart, it was like a net for water, and he couldn't think of anything.
Somehow, although he couldn't believe it, there was a voice echoing in his heart, no matter how he deliberately suppressed it, he couldn't completely kill it.
This sword belongs to me!
Past, present, and future, it's mine!
"Gao Yun, what's wrong with you?" Liu Yue took out a silk scarf and handed it to Gao Yun, "His eyes looked a little dull, and his forehead was full of sweat. ”
Gao Yun suddenly woke up from his conjecture just now.
He took the silk towel a little blankly and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, barely squeezed out a smile, and said, "No, it's okay, I was still thinking about the ghosts I met on the road just now, so I lost my mind a little." ”
Liu Yue sighed softly, turned around and looked at the sword hanging in the air.
"This sword is very weird, you stand back first. ”
Liu Yue gently shook his slender hand and motioned for Gao Yun to step back, walked cautiously to the sword, and looked at it carefully.
The sword body regularly emitted a faint soft reddish light, and as the red light flickered, Liu Yue felt that bursts of slightly hot sword qi were emanating from the sword body.
"Judging from the heavy aura exuded from this sword, it seems to be accompanied by a flame attribute. Liu Yue groaned.
Gao Yun's pupils standing behind Liu Yue quickly contracted, staring at the sword that was shining with a charming light all around him.
As the distance got closer, Gao Yun's feeling became even stronger.
There was a very familiar aura from the sword, as if he had used it before.
Although the sword was only standing there quietly, Gao Yun sensed the killing aura that was constantly escaping from the sword's body, and at the same time, Gao Yun felt as if he had been inspired in his body, and his blood gradually boiled.
Gao Yun took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the inexplicable restlessness in his body.
However, the mysteries in his mind still hit him from time to time, disturbing him.
He has lived in a firewood house since he was a child, and when he occasionally goes out, he only goes to the fang market to buy ingredients, and he has no chance to touch any weapons at all, how can he have such a feeling for a sword?
Gao Yun wanted to tell Liu Yue about this feeling, but he shook his head slightly.
After all, this matter is so absurd that no one will believe it even if it can't be said, so it's better to keep your mouth shut.
Suddenly, he felt the air around him seem to vibrate, and the ground trembled slightly.
The scene in front of him suddenly became blurry, and there seemed to be multiple overlapping shadows.
In his moments of surprise, he only heard a dull sound of "rubbing" on the ground, and the ground trembled slightly.
Gao Yun fixed his eyes and saw that the sword that was originally hanging in the air actually fell, and the tip of the sword plunged straight into the ground.
Liu Yue and Gao Yun looked at each other in a daze.
Liu Yue originally wanted to reach out for the sword, but he didn't expect the sword to suddenly fall.
Liu Yue was suspicious.
Could it be that the sword had a spirit and knew that I was going to get it, so it fell to the ground on its own?
Liu Yue was overjoyed, stepped forward, and grabbed the black hilt carved with ancient patterns.
"Huh?"
Her hand lifted upwards with force, but she couldn't pull out the sword.
The two couldn't help but be amazed.
You must know that Liu Yue's aura level has reached the eighth level, and he can lift nearly 10,000 catties of things with one hand at will.
This sword looks like a few dozen catties at most, and the part inserted into the ground is less than a foot, how can it not be picked up?
Liu Yue closed her eyes, calmed down, grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands, and adjusted it to an optimal position to hold the sword.
Open your eyes...... Breathe deeply...... Hard......
Due to the excessive force, Liu Yue's hands suddenly detached from the hilt of the sword, and the whole person retreated two steps back to stabilize his body.
And the sword inserted into the ground still did not move.
"Let me try. ”
Just when Liu Yue had nothing to do, Gao Yun, who was standing beside her, said softly.
Liu Yue looked at Gao Yun and raised her eyebrows, trying to hold her breath and not let herself laugh.
Although she didn't think that Gao Yun, who had not even cultivated the foundation of immortal arts, would have anything to do with this sword that she couldn't even move by herself.
But she has a gentle temperament and won't hit him directly, so let him give it a try.
"Okay, but don't force it. ”
Liu Yue took a step back and smiled and gave way to Gao Yun.
Gao Yun tentatively stretched out his hand and gently placed it on the hilt of his sword.
As soon as he made contact, Gao Yun felt a tingling sensation of slight numbness coming from his palm.
The fierce sword aura exuded from the sword body pierced Gao Yun's skin like a spike, and it suddenly turned red. A little bit of sharp sword qi rushed straight up along Gao Yun's arm like a small blade, rubbing his entire arm to feel a little numb.
However, at this time, Gao Yun could no longer feel these pains on his body.
The moment he grasped the hilt of his sword lightly with both hands, a strange scene suddenly appeared in his mind.
