Chapter 2 The Seven Elders of Xuanzhu
In the wilderness, on the heavy mountains, the moon hangs in the sky, the stars are dense, and it is very bright.
Suddenly, a meteor crossed the air, and it was blood-red all over, with a light tail across the sky, scarlet and piercing the eyes, like a huge blood mark, shocking. Immediately afterwards, the Celestial Pivot Star in the Big Dipper suddenly became dim, but the evil thing was that there was not a single cloud in the sky, as if it had suddenly been taken away by an invisible hand. In the blink of an eye, the Sky Xuan Star also disappeared. After a while, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Shaoguang also disappeared one after another.
In the blink of an eye, dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky, like lead, covering the stars and the moon, enveloping this piece of heaven and earth, like an inverted huge iron basin, surrounding the mountains impermeable.
"Bang ......"
A thunderbolt lit up, illuminating the entire sky, and several dark shadows appeared in mid-air, looking like several figures. The thunder flashed away, and it slashed directly at the highest peak in the mountains with the mighty heavenly might. For a time, the earth shook the mountains, the trees fell and the rocks flew, the roar shook the sky, and there were tragic birds and beasts roaring, just like the end of the world.
Then, another thunderbolt, the same as before, struck at the same position on the mountain, and suddenly flames erupted. Before a wave subsided, a third thunderclap arose. One after another, like a crossbow, a dozen were split in the blink of an eye.
The sky was brightened, just like day, and several black shadows in the air were clearly visible, seven figures, only to see them standing in the sky out of thin air, holding the seal in their hands, pointing at the dark clouds and mountain peaks from time to time, and their every move was full of subtlety, as if the thunder was caused by them.
"Bang ......"
Another thunderstorm struck, and it was impossible to count the first ones, and the high mountain in the center completely became a "bald man", all the plants and trees were turned into ashes, and the mountain had faded to say that there were three or four feet of "skin".
"It's almost there, and the entrance is here!" A slightly tired voice came from mid-air, "With more force, I broke this barrier in one go!" ”
After a while, another bright light appeared in the dark clouds, thick and dazzling, several times stronger than before.
"Boom ......"
The thunder slashed down in anger like a huge sword, and it was about to split the mountain in half. On closer inspection, there was a lonely green in the place where the thunder fell—probably the only life left on this bald mountain—a tortuous green vine, the thickness of a thumb, three feet long, crumbling on a dangling rock, crumbling.
It's a pity that this last chance of life will be cut off under this thunderstorm.
"Bang ......"
The thunder slashed on the green vines, the light was dazzling, and it was impossible to look at it directly, and the momentum was terrifying, but it was extinguished in the blink of an eye, and it did not cause any substantial damage to the mountain, it seemed that it was only a big light.
"Huh?" An exclamation was heard in midair.
"What's going on?" An old male voice asked.
No one answered, and a ball of fire drifted down from a few people and landed on the spot where the lightning struck.
The green vine is still there!
The clinging rocks have disappeared without a trace, but it is still delicate and seems to be more alive than before.
"Could it be that this is the entrance ...... the Immortal Rune Sect?"
Before the words were finished, the green vine swayed with the wind, stood upright, the vine head became delicate, slowly spewing out a little green light, the size of a date, green and flawless, it looked vibrant, but somehow, it made people feel cold from the bottom of their hearts.
"Let's go!" I don't know who exclaimed, and the seven figures immediately turned into seven streamers of light and scattered away, disappearing in an instant. At the same time, the green light that was still slow at that moment turned into countless runes, disappearing out of thin air, the heavens and the earth were dead silent, and there was not a single song of insects and birds.
However, it only lasted for two or three moments.
"When ......"
A loud and deafening noise came from all directions at the same time, converging in one place, stirring up monstrous winds, blowing clouds and fog, pulling trees and destroying stones, and several slightly thin peaks had collapsed for the most part, and were swept up by hurricanes, falling trees and flying rocks flew all over the sky, enveloping this piece of heaven and earth.
After about a stick of incense, it stopped a little bit. A bright green light first came out of the center of the storm, followed by several blinding rays of light, blue or yellow or red or silver, which collided with the green light, wave after wave.
Nearly half an hour, the sand and gravel flying wood finally settled, and the scene in the center was completely revealed. The green light curtain of more than three people formed a seven-zhang circle, full of runes - like swimming fish, constantly swimming, reflecting each other, very mysterious. In the middle are seven figures, and judging by their postures, they are actually the seven people who fled before. I saw that these seven people were all men, four old men and three middle-aged people, dressed similarly, all dressed in dark robes and wearing bamboo leaf crowns.
These seven people are the "Xuanzhu Seven Elders" who dominated the immortal world more than 20 years ago, the eldest Changyun Zhenren, the second Changteng Zhenren, the third Changzhi Zhenren, the fourth Changyu Zhenren, the fifth Changlu Zhenren, the sixth Changjie Zhenren, and the seventh Changjie Zhenren. It is the first seven characters of the thousand-character text "clouds cause rain, and dew becomes frost".
According to legend, these seven people had a vicious battle with the Demon Sect "Tongxian Society" more than 20 years ago, and finally lost their lives to the enemy, and they have disappeared for more than 20 years, but they did not expect to appear here today.
At this time, seven people were in a circle with their backs to back, all of them in ragged clothes, with blood stains on the corners of their mouths and bodies, and they were very embarrassed.
"What kind of ghost rune array is this, why is the coercion so powerful, and so weird, it's not much better than the powerhouse at the peak of Yuanying, right?" A middle-aged man with a long beard and a black face ran Xuangong resistance, both annoyed and helpless, this person was the old seventh elder and a real person.
The eldest Changyun Zhenren stood in the center, holding a pair of blue and red swords, and said bitterly: "We're just afraid that we have all entered the small world of that vine now?" ”
"What? A rattan has a small world? Everyone was shocked.
This kind of thing is not something that everyone can have, generally only those who have cultivated to the heavens and the earth will build their own small world of Taoism, and in it, they will have their own Taoist supernatural blessings, like a tiger with wings.
Changyun Zhenren sighed: "That rattan bath thunder is immortal, and it contains magical powers, I'm afraid it is the legendary emperor house vine!" ”
Everyone looked at each other, all in horror. However, after waiting for a while, there was no movement, and Chang Wei Zhenren spoke: "Senior brother, is this small world just trapping us in it?" ”
The voice did not fall.
"Ding."
With a crisp sound, a green streamer suddenly shot out from the light curtain, hitting Changyun's heart. Changyun pursed his dry lips and raised the red sword to fight a little. The tip of the sword happened to ignite the streamer, and the sword body "boomed", raising a flame more than three feet high.
Under the light of the fire, the streamer showed its original shape, which was a spot of light the size of a cup, with a flowing line in the middle, which was chaotic at a rough look, but it was strange and abnormal when you looked closely, and it was actually a mysterious rune.
"Ling Xuan Fu?" Changyun's brows furrowed, he shook his wrist, and a fiery snake burst out of the sword, and he wrapped the Lingxu talisman tightly.
The other six all turned their heads, seven with fourteen eyes, staring at the flames.
"Boom ......"
The fire suddenly exploded, and Ling Xufu turned sharply, shaking Changyun's left arm numb, and he was about to get rid of his restraints. Changyun secretly gritted his teeth and snorted softly, "Ice and Fire Purgatory!" ”
The cyan sword was immediately covered with a layer of ice, like scales, flipped his right wrist, the green sword was obliquely attached to the red sword, his arms were folded, and the blue and red swords were like scissors hinged the Ling Xuan Fu. The blue and red rays of light immediately poured out, kneading together, as if they were substances, wrapped in Lingxu Talismans and swirling. The shape of the Ling Xuan Fu was distorted, swaying from side to side constantly, as if it was alive, but it couldn't get out of control no matter what.
Changyun was not easy, and after only a few breaths of stalemate, he was tired and sweaty, and his arms were numb.
"Senior brother, I'll help you!" A middle-aged man with a long beard—the sixth old man is a real person—and with two fingers up, he wants to recite a mantra.
"Stop!" The triangular-eyed old man on the left side of Changyun - the third elder is a real person - shouted and scolded, "Don't make trouble! ”
The long knot was stunned and obediently withdrew his hand.
"Yikes!" Changyun let out a low snort, his arms suddenly exerted force, and with the sound of "dang", Ling Xu's talisman was cut to pieces, and he secretly breathed a long sigh of relief, and said: "The talisman array of the Immortal Rune Sect really lives up to its reputation!" The tone was very solemn, mixed with a bit of excitement that could not be concealed.
Changjie peeked at the people around him, hesitated slightly, and said weakly: "Senior brother, this place is too dangerous, why don't we withdraw?" ”
"Shut up!" Changzhi scolded sharply, "How many twists and turns did it take us to find the mountain gate of this Immortal Rune Sect, and how many days did we wait until this day when the Seven Yin Gathering, and we were about to find the treasure house of the Immortal Rune Sect, you actually had to run away with your tail between your legs, and you were cowardly!" The fuck shouldn't have brought you! The more he talked, the more excited he became, and the spitting stars flew sideways, spraying a long knot on his face.
"You ......" Chang Knot's lips trembled with anger, "I'm afraid that you won't die!" ”
"Look for death!" Changzhi stepped the ground with his right foot, and he was about to start.
"Stop!" Changyun glared at the two of them angrily, "When is it, and there is still a mind to speak!" Dick, take it out! ”
"Senior brother......" An old man with long eyebrows, the second elder Changteng Zhenren, hesitated, "The Ling Void Talisman has been broken by you, isn't it a little early to take it out now?" ”
Changyun frowned, and said worriedly: "It's not early!" ”
Before the words fell, a buzzing sound sounded around him, as if dozens of bee colonies were gathered at the same time, making people's scalps tingle.
"Quick!" Changyun's eyes were almost straight. Following his gaze, he saw more than a dozen Ling Xuan Talismans slashing at the same time from all directions.
Chang Teng secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, not daring to have the slightest slack, his right palm slapped on the storage bag on his waist, and a seven-layer budding lotus pagoda appeared in mid-air, the whole body was dark, and each petal was engraved with a skull - the eye hole was shining with stars and blood - very bewitching. The lotus flower on the top of the tower is carved, in which a wisp of blue flame is burned, and the cold air is pressing.
"Do it!" Changyun shouted.
Seven people pinched the trick at the same time, and stood in the seven directions of the Beidou. Changyun was the leader, and he was landing on the Tianshu position, and his sword pointed at the lotus tower, "Hurry!" ”
An invisible evil aura descended from the sky and fell on the lotus tower, and the flames on the top floor of the lotus tower came out through the tower, swept into the sky, and turned into hundreds of hideous blue skeletons in mid-air, heading straight for Ling Xufu.
In the blink of an eye, the blue and green rays of light were entangled together, splashing with fire, cutting stones and bones, and the danger was abnormal. The seven people didn't dare to be contaminated with half a point, one hand pinched the trick to urge the lotus pagoda, and the other side controlled all kinds of magic weapons to resist. There was a "crackling" sound in all directions, as if a scoop of cold water suddenly entered the boiling oil pot, and it was lively and tight.
After about half of the incense burning, most of the skeletons were already in tatters, and although the Ling Xuan Fu was also much darker, most of their bodies were still very intact, and it seemed that it would not take long to win them all.
A gray-haired middle-aged man—the fifth elder Changlu Zhenren—licked his dry upper lip, withdrew his gaze from mid-air, focused on Changyun's body, and called softly, "Senior brother." ”
Changyun looked at the lotus tower, only to see its vultures spinning in the air, quietly, obviously there was no sound at all, but he always felt that it was whispering, as if it was saying something very tempting, which made people reluctant to take their eyes away.
"Let's open the second realm." Changyun withdrew his gaze.
The faces of the group were solemn, and the eyes of the people looking at the lotus pagoda were a little afraid. Changyun gave an order, and all of them quickly formed the law seal, and a wave was as fast as a wave. As their movements got faster and faster, the lotus pagoda spun faster and "buzzed", and the surrounding night seemed to suddenly become a little thicker.
