Chapter 165: Xu Changqing and Tang Zixuan
Li Qinglian walked into the illusion passage, and first appeared in a war illusion where two armies faced each other, this illusion seemed to be just an ordinary army battle, with a total of no less than 100,000 people on both sides of the war.
And the place where Li Qinglian appeared was exactly the center of the confrontation between the two armies, and in an instant, Li Qinglian felt countless arrows and flying stones roaring towards her, and there were dense ironclad cavalry rushing towards her in all directions.
Although it was only an illusion generated by the illusion, Li Qinglian could clearly feel the aura of extreme danger, and he had no doubt that as long as he was hit by these illusions, he would also suffer a catastrophe.
In the face of these unavoidable attacks, Li Qinglian pulled out the iron sword at his waist without thinking about it, and then he simply waved the iron sword several times, and then the incomparably real illusion disappeared.
Li Qinglian directly put the iron sword across her head for the first time, and those dense arrows like raindrops fell on the iron sword, making a rapid sound, but with a clanging sound, the arrows and flying stones that rained all over the sky dissipated without a trace.
Then Li Qinglian dropped the iron sword in front of him, and when the tip of the sword fell to the ground, a huge crack appeared in front of Li Qinglian, and the crack continued to expand, as if the earth in the illusion was torn apart, and the cavalry in front of him was directly swept into the crack.
Then Li Qinglian made the last action with the iron sword, this action he held the iron sword in his hand, his body squatted slightly and slashed obliquely behind him, and then shot out an invisible sword qi from the iron sword, the sword qi was like a breeze, but it was to slash the tens of thousands of army illusions behind Li Qinglian.
One move, one fall, one slash.
Li Qinglian just made three simple movements, and the whole illusion suddenly disappeared.
When he looked at the scene in front of him again, he only saw a glorious passage, and a picture of two armies fighting each other on the wall of light around him was fixed on the passage.
Holding the iron sword in his hand tightly, Li Qinglian looked down at the inconspicuous iron sword, with a sword in his hand, even this dangerous illusion made him feel less terrible.
Continue to move forward The space changes, and a new illusion appears, this time Li Qinglian found herself in a city, at this moment the city was in a panic, the sky was densely packed with demon beasts rampage, these demon beasts can collapse the house with one claw, and the wings can destroy the city wall. But fortunately, there are also some cultivators in the city, and all kinds of supernatural treasures are also flying in the sky, fighting with these demon beasts.
Li Qinglian stood in the open space in the city, looking up at the sky, and suddenly a shadow shrouded his head, the shadow covered the sky and the sun, as if a darkness had descended, and then in Li Qinglian's field of vision, a huge demon beast claw fell from the sky.
The claws were shining with a metallic luster, and one claw seemed to be able to grasp the mountain, but seeing that this terrifying monster giant claw was about to fall, Li Qinglian not only did not panic but showed a trace of joy in his eyes, just when the giant claw was about to fall on top of his head, he held the iron sword and instantly rose into the sky, and he was able to avoid the attack of the giant claw.
Next, Li Qinglian used the sword technique, interspersed in the sky, dodged the attacks of demon beasts again and again, and gradually he himself cooperated with the iron sword more tacitly, and finally he was only able to walk in the tide of demon beasts with just a flying sword.
"Boom....." Suddenly there was a muffled sound in Li Qinglian's mud pill palace, and then an exercise automatically appeared in his mind.
Li Qinglian could clearly feel that this sword immortal introductory method called "Refining the Sword into a Pill" was passed from the iron sword, and it seemed that there was a follow-up cultivation method in the iron sword.
"The Taoist gave me a sword, and there is a hidden method of cultivation in it, with this method, I can enter the Tao even if I don't go to the Middle Earth Cloud Terrace, although the illusion in the cliff of sacrifice today is dangerous and abnormal, but it is also an excellent place to cultivate, if you can use the illusion here to improve the actual combat cultivation, it is better than countless experiences in the outside world. Li Qinglian's heart instantly surged through thousands of thoughts, and in his opinion, this dangerous and abnormal illusion had become a rare treasure in the world.
With the intention of cultivating in the illusion realm, Li Qinglian made the flying sword rush towards those demon beasts, and at first he could only attack those demon beasts clumsily, and the damage caused to the demon beasts was extremely limited. But slowly, his attacks became more and more tricky, and only a white light was seen in the sky constantly flickering and jumping, and every time the white light jumped again, a nearby demon beast would be killed.
In the end, the demon beasts in the sky kept falling, and I don't know how long it took, there was no more moving demon beasts in the entire illusion, and only Li Qinglian's long-sleeved fluttering figure was left in the sky.
The ruined city, the shattered corpses of demon beasts, and a Tsing Yi Sword Immortal in fluttering clothes in the sky, but unfortunately all this is just an illusion, but even if it is an illusion, the battle just now also made Li Qinglian's heart surge.
In the past, he was just a literati, although he also had the pride of fighting the sword world in his heart, and he also wrote heroic verses such as 'killing one person in ten steps, leaving no line for a thousand miles', but these are too far away from him after all.
Today, Li Qinglian really walked into the world that once only existed in his dreams for the first time.
The illusion was shattered again, and Li Qinglian appeared in the glorious passage again, but this time he found that there were dozens of corpses around him, and there were no obvious injuries on these corpses, and if you looked closely, some of them turned out to be the cultivators of the Shu Mountain Realm who had just entered the illusion passage with him.
"The way of cultivation is to face difficulties, although the front is very dangerous, but it can also save me countless time, my cultivation is too late, if I don't cherish such an opportunity, this life can only be muddy. Li Qinglian's gaze moved away from the corpse on the ground, firmly looking at the ever-changing illusion in front of her, and finally took a firm step towards the front.
Similar or opposite scenes also happened in other parts of the illusion, most of them were afraid of the danger ahead, and these people wanted to return the same way but could not find the entrance to the passage, as for the few who chose to move on, they encountered stronger and stronger illusions, some people died in the illusions, only a very few people were able to continue to go towards the depths of the illusion, so the closer they got to the core of the illusion, the fewer people survived.
Li Qinglian kept walking to the depths, and every time he walked a distance, he would experience a completely different illusion, and gradually the illusion he experienced had reached the Yuan Shen Realm and even appeared in a battle at the Taiyi Xuan Immortal level.
Of course, his gains were also huge, whether it was his combat skills and awareness, or his understanding of the Sword Immortals, they had undergone earth-shaking changes, and Li Qinglian could even feel that as long as he continued to walk, he would soon be able to refine the iron sword in his hand into a sword pill, and his own Dao Realm was getting closer and closer to the Yuan Shen Realm.
Along the way, Li Qinglian also found some clues, such as the illusion in this passage will form a picture scroll after she is shattered, but when she leaves, if someone comes in from behind, the picture will be activated to transform into an illusion.
However, there is an exception, and that is that if the person who comes before is in an illusion, then the person who comes later will be in the same illusion as the former.
At this moment, Li Qinglian found that when he stepped into a new illusion again, he happened to see two cultivators from the Shu Mountain Realm joining forces to resist all kinds of illusions in the illusion.
Li Qinglian looked at the two people in front of her, and these two people also subconsciously looked at Li Qinglian, and they were a little surprised when they saw that Li Qinglian was not even in the Yuan God Realm.
In the illusion, there are two people, a man and a woman, and each of them has a three-color canopy on top of their heads, which means that the three flowers on the top of the two have gathered, and only the three-color fusion is needed to complete the last step of Taiyi Xuanxian.
Although Li Qinglian didn't know the two characters in front of her who were only one step away from becoming Taiyi Xuanxian, the clothes on these two people clearly explained their identities.
The man was dressed in the blue and white robes of the Shushan Sword Sect, while the woman was dressed in light green clothes, which was the unique costume of the Zhushan Sect.
Countless golden lights crisscrossed the illusion, if it weren't for the two disciples of the Shushan Sword Sect and the Zhushan Sect who had the canopy condensed by the three flowers on the top to resist, I am afraid that they would have died in this illusion, but even so, every time the golden light shone, the three-color canopy above the two of them dimmed a little.
"Be careful, the illusion here should be the golden light array in the Ten Peerless Formations of the Ancient Strange Array, in addition to breaking this array with force, the only way to cut off the high pole hanging the twenty-one treasure mirrors at the same time. As soon as Li Qinglian appeared, the man from the Shushan Sword Sect reminded him loudly.
Hearing this, Li Qinglian nodded towards the Shushan disciple, and the next moment a golden light had already shot towards Li Qinglian, facing this golden light that was enough to cut down the powerhouse of the Yuan Shen Realm, Li Qinglian took off the iron sword in his hand, and turned into a white light and crashed towards the golden light.
Immediately after that, a burst of white light lit up everywhere in the array, and almost at the same time, all the twenty-one treasure mirrors in the illusion were broken, and the next moment the illusion dissipated, and Li Qinglian, the disciples of the Shushan Sword Sect, and the woman of the Zhushan Sect appeared in the passage again.
This sudden change made the disciples of the Shushan Sword Sect and the disciples of the Zhushan Sect look at Li Qinglian in disbelief, and then look at the several lifeless corpses in the passage, and the two of them subconsciously looked at the iron sword in Li Qinglian's hand.
The illusion of this place is already very close to the core of the illusion, and many of the corpses in the passage at this moment are the best in the Yuan Shen Realm, and they are also famous in the Shu Mountain Realm, but such a dangerous illusion was instantly shattered in the hands of a person who is not even in the Yuan Shen Realm, and these two people are also unique visions, and they naturally discovered the extraordinary blade in Li Qinglian's hand.
"Xu Changqing of the Sword Sect in Xia Shu Mountain, thank you for saving your life. The man of the Shushan Sword Sect looked away from the iron sword in Li Qinglian's hand, bowed to Li Qinglian, and reported his name and origin.
"The little woman Zhushan taught Tang Zixuan, thank you for saving your life. The woman from the Zhushan Sect also followed, and also bowed to Li Qinglian.
