() Since the White Sword Patriarch passed down the practice of cultivating immortals, countless immortal cultivators have worked hard to practice in order to fight for their lives against the heavens. Day after day, year after year, hoping to seek a breakthrough in the limited years, but the success of the people is really a minority. If you want to succeed in cultivating immortals, you must have good roots, high understanding, and strong perseverance, even if you have both, it depends on whether you have luck to survive the final catastrophe.

There has always been no shortage of amazing and brilliant people in the immortal cultivation world of the Qinglong Continent, but how many people have successfully cultivated into sword immortals? Some people may think: "Exhausting one's life for the sake of immortality, in exchange for it is still an uncertain suspense, if it succeeds, it is worth it, if it fails, it is better to have ordinary pleasure and be at ease." ”

Each person has his own aspirations. The same is true for immortal cultivators. Some people have established sects and carried forward their own cultivation methods, some have carefully taught their disciples and maintained a lineage, and some people have cultivated in seclusion alone and pursued self-attainment. In the long course of history, how many sects and lineages have been born and annihilated, looking at the current pattern of the immortal cultivation realm in the Qinglong Continent, in addition to the seven major sects of the eternal evergreen, among the sects ranked second to fifth in the strength of each county, the longest sect has not been established for more than two hundred years. The Golden Immortal Sect in Xianglong County is a newly emerging sect. Although there are not many people, no one dares to mess with them.

This time, someone was so bold that he not only killed the disciples of the Golden Immortal Sect and their double cultivators, but also took away the good immortal sword and set fire to the main hall. When several of Wu Suying's junior sisters rushed back to the sect one after another, they gritted their teeth with anger when they saw the devastated sect.

"Senior sister, no matter who the murderer is, he will definitely be broken into thousands of pieces! With the identities of several of us, what is the difficulty?" a woman in green waved her fist.

"That's right! You dare to provoke our Golden Immortal Sect, and you don't even ask us where we come from!" said another woman in blue.

"Let's rush back in a moment, mobilize all forces, dig three feet into the ground and find out the murderer!" said another woman in red.

Her words were immediately echoed. Among this group of beautiful women sitting on the ground, only the sect leader Wu Suying kept his head down and remained silent. Seeing that the senior sister didn't speak, the rest of the people gradually quieted down. The woman in green asked, "Senior sister, you have given an order! Taiqing Sect went to investigate the heavy sword master of Sanxiu, what should we do?"

Wu Suying raised her head: "Senior sisters, don't be impatient. In the past few days, I have already thought about that, first, we will mobilize all forces to carefully investigate the heavy sword masters in the large and small sects, and see if there are any suspicious characters who have recently left the sect; second, that 'He Tianxiao' is indeed a concern, at least one thing can be determined, the murderer knows him, and perhaps he is the key to solving this case." ”

The woman in red stood up "Teng": "Senior sister is the same as I thought, no matter what, I must find out He Tianxiao himself first." So what are we waiting for?"

Wu Suying glanced at her and said angrily: "Xin Ying, sit down! Why have you been so unbreathable? After all, He Tianxiao was once a disciple of the Taiqing Sect, and the grandson of the sect leader Li Yuanxiao, you are so fanfare, you are not afraid of annoying the Taiqing Sect? Where do you let Hairuo's face go?"

The woman in red sat down angrily and looked at a woman in purple beside her. This woman in purple is the "Hairuo" that Wu Suying just mentioned. She said: "Senior sister, what do you mean, we are secretly looking for? I have also heard of that 'He Tianxiao', I heard that he and his fellow brother He Tianyao were both great first-class root bone disciples in the Taiqing Sect back then, after he suddenly gave up cultivating immortals and left the sect, Sect Master Li and his master Elder Yu were furious, and sent people to look around but never found it, and the elders of the Taiqing Sect have always felt deeply sorry for this. Senior sister, the Taiqing Sect's Hunting Hall is famous all over the world, and if it's still the case with open investigations, what's the use of our secret investigations?"

Wu Suying pondered for a moment and said, "Hairuo, after a few of them have checked the heavy sword masters of various sects, I will go to the Taiqing Sect with you." Senior sisters, you should go back and investigate thoroughly now, and you must report back to me within three months. ”

Several women responded in unison, and then scattered and left the Golden Immortal Sect.

The purple-clothed woman asked, "Senior sister, have we been waiting here?" The Taiqing Sect and other sects in Kanglong County also have heavy sword masters, don't you need me to investigate?"

"I still have important things to rush back to the Poison Refining Sect, and the rebuilding of the sect will be handled by you. As for the heavy sword master of Kanglong County, I believe that Taiqing Sect will also check it himself, so we don't have to bother. If the murderer can't be found, I will go with you to Taiqing Sect to see Sect Master Li three months later and find out his style. Senior sister, I'm tired. After Wu Suying finished explaining, she hurriedly flew away.

Looking at Wu Suying's distant back, the woman in purple whispered puzzledly: "Senior sister, what can be more important than the major affairs of the sect?"

......

On the small island of the Starwind Sea, the man in black who was meditating suddenly moved in his heart and remembered something. "I was negligent at that time, that old man was in the early stage of the cave void, with He Tianxiao's realm when he left the sect, how could he kill him! The handwriting I left behind, although it imitated the handwriting of his younger brother He Tianyao, but the handwriting of the two brothers will not be exactly the same after all, from this point of view, those immortal cultivators may not necessarily believe that he did it......"

Just as he was thinking, Tianxiao came out of the cave, and while moving his muscles and bones, he said to the man in black, "Hey, you should teach me knife techniques!"

There was a hint of anger in the black-clothed man's hoarse voice: "Is this the tone in which you are talking to the elders?"

Tianxiao was stunned, he has always called the man in black like this, and he has never seen the man in black angry, why is it different today?"You didn't tell me what your name was, how do I know what to call it?"

"Hmph, listen to me, my surname is Xiao, and you have to respectfully call me 'Senior Xiao' in the future!"

Hearing the surname "Xiao", Tianxiao couldn't help but think of it in his heart

The gentle shadow: "I haven't seen her for a long time, and I don't know how she is doing, does she think of me?" or ...... No, no, Liying is not that kind of person, unless I die...... Oh, in a situation like I am now, I can't see my relatives and friends at will, and how much difference is there between being dead and ......" He laughed self-deprecatingly at the thought of this.

Suddenly there was a flower in front of him, and the man in black had flashed in front of him, and a burst of chestnuts knocked on his head: "Did you hear what I said?"

Tianxiao retracted his thoughts and replied: "I heard it, Senior Xiao, okay?" Then, he muttered in a low voice: "Really, the same surname, but the temper is so much worse......"

Of course, this muttering did not escape the sensitive ears of the man in black, he instantly figured it out, haha, and said, "Stinky boy, do you miss a woman?"

Tianxiao said angrily: "No!"

"Don't hide it from me, as soon as I saw your obsessive look just now, I guessed a ** point. Boy, I warn you, don't sink too deep. That girl is good, but you won't end well with her. In the end, either you hurt her, or she hurt you. "Humanity in black.

"How do you know she's good?" Tian Xiao was puzzled, "Have you seen Liying?"

"Oh, so her name is Xiao Liying...... "The man in black said, "I haven't seen her in person, but I've seen her handwriting." As the saying goes, 'words are like their people', looking at her neat words and neat dot paintings, she must be a person with bright eyes and bright teeth, fairy and jade appearance. Am I right?"

Tianxiao was even more puzzled: "Where did you see her writing?"

"Cloudset Villa. ”

Tianxiao was taken aback: "What are you doing in Yundu Villa?"

The man in black gave him another burst: "Don't ask so much! Hurry up and cultivate! I say the mantra, you record it!"

Tianxiao wondered in his heart, the man in black is really strange today, he usually cultivates by him, and Tianxiao remembers it in his heart. There is no paper and no pen on this isolated island, how to record it?" "Senior Xiao, you give me paper and pen!"

"What do you want paper and pen for, take a knife and carve it into a stone!" commanded the man in black.

Tianxiao was helpless, pulled out the magic knife, and the tip of the knife was against a boulder at the entrance of the cave, waiting for the man in black to speak.

"Heaven is endless,

There is an end to the earth.

Hurry is in a hurry,

Slow is slow.

The sun does not move,

Time is like a long stream.

In an instant,

Three autumns in one day.

Conquer the world,

Everything goes on and on.

Blew

Overnight.

Realize this body,

Unsurpassed.

Just like the phoenix dance,

It's like a dragon swimming. ”

After finishing the opening of the body, the man in black paused and asked Tianxiao, who was busy carving: "Boy, do you understand what I mean by these words?"

After Tian Xiao carved the last word, he read it carefully, and said with a smile: "Does it mean that a person who has learned this body method can travel thousands of miles away in an instant? This is too exaggerated." ”

"'The sun does not move, but the hour is like a long stream. It means that to others, it is just a moment of 'the sun does not move', but for you, time flows like a surging river. Although it is exaggerated, it illustrates the characteristics of this method: when 'a moment' becomes 'a long time', and 'one day' becomes 'three autumns', your speed will naturally be much faster than others. To be able to 'achieve it overnight' and 'pour thousands of miles' can 'dominate the world' and 'never stop everything'. My body method is called "Dragon Tour". The Man in Black explained.

"Sounds amazing...... Senior Xiao, you go on. ”

"Listen well......" The man in black continued to teach the Tianxiao Body Method formula.

Tianxiao silently recited in his heart, and at the same time, he shook his wrist, and the magic knife blade left rows and rows of neat handwriting on the surface of the boulder. Engraved and engraved, Tianxiao looked back helplessly and said, "Senior Xiao, I can't write it." ”

The man in black walked to the boulder with his hands in his hands, looked at Tianxiao's handwriting, and said, "Today is the first time, you can remember the rest." He continued to finish the rest of his mind, and Tianxiao memorized it word for word.

After the teachings were completed, the man in black ordered: "From tomorrow onwards, you will have to engrave the mantra on this boulder every day, remember, it must be complete." ”

"Isn't it all engraved? Tomorrow ......" Tianxiao's voice did not fall, only to see the man in black pull out the magic knife, and slash at the boulder diagonally, "Bang", the handwriting on the surface of the boulder was scraped off by the blade, leaving only a little powder on the ground, not half of the gravel, how accurate this is!

"Carving it every day helps you practice control a lot. I'm going to forge a knife, don't bother me if it's okay. The man in black took his hand and left, his steps were very strange, it seemed that a simple step was a few feet, but he stepped several feet away, as if he was walking leisurely, but the speed was amazing. Tianxiao's eyes lit up, this is exactly the dragon swimming method, it is really wonderful!

The man in black went around to the back of the hill, where there was also a cave, but it was not a natural formation, but he had dug it with his own hands for the purpose of forging knives. The five good-quality immortal swords that were snatched back from the Golden Immortal Sect were stored in the cave.

"I just looked at the kid's handwriting, and it was so different from his brother's handwriting...... Perhaps, after the magic knife is cast, then go and kill those guys, as long as He Tianxiao can't go back. The man in black thought.

"Although it is a return material, it can be used after treatment. He muttered to himself.

After a few days, the five good fairy swords were smelted after removing some impurities

Two superb magic knives.

Looking at the magic knife in his hands that did not shine, the man in black was very satisfied: "Although it is not as good as the mountain pulling magic knife, it is already a rare superlative." I didn't expect that after so much time, my casting knife level is still the same as it was back then, haha!" He raised the magic knife in his right hand and pressed a little force on the cave wall, and with a "poof" sound, a crack appeared on the wall, just hiding another superb magic knife in it. "Wait for that kid to cultivate to the level of refining the void and then give it to him. He thought to himself. As for the high-grade magic knife he used before, he had already destroyed it when he forged it.

Out of the cave, it was dusk outside. The man in black pinched his fingers and counted that the casting knife had been used for five days. He shook the entrance of the cave with one palm, looked up at the moon and stars in the sky, and whispered: "Tonight, someone is going to die in Huangquan!"

......

In just one month, several tragedies occurred in the immortal cultivation realm of the Qinglong Continent one after another: first, the Silver Frost Sect of Xianglong County was tragically destroyed; five days later, the Jiuxiao Sect that moved from Feilong County to Xianglong County was also slaughtered; after half a month, the Mountain Sect of Kanglong County also suffered this catastrophe; and after five days, the Chongxin Sect of Qianlong County also suffered this catastrophe. Four sects were wiped out in a row, shocking the entire immortal cultivation world.

The four sects are located in different places, and there is no contact between them, the only thing that is the same is that these four sects are all small sects, and there are no more than 100 people in the sect, and the sect masters are all in the realm of cave void. For a while, the disciples of the various immortal cultivation sects were always worried and panicked.

All the dead of the four sects died in a terrible state, either missing arms and legs, or being cut in two. The most surprising thing is that at the scene of every tragedy, there is the handwriting left by the murderer: "Murderer, He Tianxiao." The name "He Tianxiao" is well known in the world of cultivating immortals, and the tragedy that occurred in the Golden Immortal Sect has also spread widely with the clouds, "He Tianxiao was a disciple of the Taiqing Sect" The news has spread far and wide, for this reason, many sect masters and elders of small and medium-sized sects have continuously visited the Taiqing Sect, and even the ethereal sect master Zuo Aolian and the Leng Yue sect leader Yan Sushuang have also heard the news, Li Yuanxiao can be regarded as having exhausted his tongue, promising that he will definitely find the real culprit.

After Yu Ruijiang returned to the sect, Lu Hailong had already ordered him to go down the mountain with Hua Qianxue and Tianyao and the others to rendezvous, and Miao Haoshang and Jiang Huangu had already left the Taiqing Sect and looked for a secluded place to cultivate. There are only two people left in the sect who know Tianxiao's secret, Lu Hailong and Li Yuanxiao. Li Yuanxiao still had to stay in the sect to deal with the people of other sects who came to visit from all sides, and Lu Hailong had to personally go to the scene of several massacres to investigate the situation.

After leaving the Silver Frost Sect, Lu Hailong flew to the Nine Heavens Sect with his sword, thinking in his heart. The condition of the deceased was no different from that of the Golden Immortal Sect, and the only thing that caught his attention was that the handwriting left by the murderer had obviously changed in style. Why is this? Lu Hailong was puzzled. At first, he guessed that someone deliberately impersonated it for some purpose after learning about the tragedy of Jin Xianzong, but after thinking about it, the murder method was clearly the same, and even the details of the deceased's injuries were almost the same, and there was no doubt that the same murderer had done it. So why did he inexplicably change his handwriting?

The same is true of the situation in the Nine Heavens Sect. Mountain Sect, Chongxin Sect, the murderer concocted the same method in the four sects, killed people, and left words. The handwriting of these four times is the same, and the style of writing is much stronger than that of the Golden Immortal Sect. Lu Hailong has carefully examined the deceased in every place, which is consistent with his previous speculation, and the murderer should have used a weapon with a blade and a blunt face.

Since he was sure that the same person had done it, he would not have changed his handwriting for no reason...... Could it be that he is imitating Tianxiao's style of words?" Lu Hailong's heart suddenly shook, he had already thought of a most likely inference that could explain everything.

So, he hurriedly rushed back to Taiqing Sect, found Li Yuanxiao, and said with a solemn expression: "These incidents should not be Tianxiao's doing. ”

Li Yuanxiao, who has been anxious, was overjoyed when he heard this, since he heard Lu Hailong's speculation last time, he has always been a little depressed, although Tianxiao is not his own grandson, but his love for Tianxiao is no less than that of Tianyao, thinking about the well-behaved and filial piety of the two brothers on weekdays, and thinking that he may have to execute him personally after finding Tianxiao, Li Yuanxiao hopes that Yu Ruijiang and they can't find Tianxiao. But the recent series of four tragedies made him more and more uneasy in his heart, if the entire immortal cultivation world began to look for Tianxiao, then he would be found sooner or later. As soon as he heard Lu Hailong say that Tianxiao was not a murderer, he immediately asked happily, "Master, have you found any new clues?"

"It's not so much a discovery, it's more like the murderer left a new clue...... "Lu Hailong roughly described the situation in the four small sects to Li Yuanxiao.

Li Yuanxiao's brows tightened after hearing this, and he couldn't understand why the murderer changed his style.

Lu Hailong explained: "Aside from the Jin Xian Sect, the handwriting of the murderers in the next four times is exactly the same, and the font is strong and powerful, I guess that this is his deliberate imitation of Tianxiao's handwriting. ”

Li Yuanxiao nodded and said, "That's right, Tianxiao's writing is indeed strong and upright." ”

"Five times it was the same method of killing, proving that the murderer was the same person. Since he deliberately imitated Tianxiao's handwriting, it also proves that the murderer is not Tianxiao himself. Lu Hailong analyzed, "From this, it can also be inferred that during the period between the tragedy of the Golden Immortal Sect and the tragedy of the Silver Frost Sect, the murderer had seen Tianxiao's handwriting. ”

Li Yuanxiao's eyes lit up: "Master, do you mean that the murderer is very likely to be with Tianxiao?"

Lu Hailong nodded firmly: "Yes." I suspect that the murderer is most likely another master of Tianxiao, the master who taught him another skill!"

Li Yuanxiao was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Then what is his purpose in marrying Tianxiao?"

Lu Hailong thought for a moment and said solemnly: "There is only one possibility, he wants to make Tianxiao completely break with the Immortal Cultivation Realm. ”
