Xiang Bei was the first to react, drawing his sword and slashing angrily in the direction of the strange wind. With a bang, the dead branches and leaves fluttering in the air were cut in half by a sword qi, but the power of the sword qi was limited, and it was only a few steps away.

Tang Qian's sleeve arrows were fired in unison, and the specially made bone-piercing nails turned into countless meteors that shone with golden light, shooting towards the black shadow in the air. It's just that the weight of this bone nail is insufficient, and it is engulfed by the violent evil wind, and it withers one after another.

"Senior brothers, dodge!" Senior Brother Li Chongguang, who had always been calm and serious, did not make up his mind until this time, letting everyone flash to both sides, the Liuyun Treasure Blade was finally unsheathed, and a sword flower was pulled out lightly by the wrist, but it led out the aura of the body, turning into a green light on the blade of the sword,

"Broken!"

The Sword Saint shouted angrily, and all the green mangs instantly refined a sword qi that was visible to the naked eye. The sword qi burned a dazzling white light on the tip of the sword of Liuyun, condensing the domineering spirit of opening the world, disdainful of those flying stones and dead branches that stayed in the air, deftly avoiding all the filthy things, and chasing after the back that had faded away, overlapping with the black shadow in an instant.

Xiang Bei admired in his heart, it turned out that this was the real strength of the senior brother, "Open the sky with a painting!"

Obviously, the black shadow flying in the air had to turn around, and a fall almost fell into the air, but then stabilized its body and completely disappeared into the mist in the distance.

Everyone pursued all the way, but only saw a broken arm of a badger and a leather wing as dry as a dead leaf where the black shadow disappeared.

......

In the Tianque Temple, looking at the depressed look on the faces of the young disciples who had returned from the monthly examination, the elders didn't know what to say, just waiting for Tiansong and Tianen to speak.

Grace examined the severed arm and looked at the leather wing. whispered in Tiansong's ear, "The broken arm is a badger's, but this green wing looks like a snow owl." However, according to the severance of the arm, the badger is several times longer than the ones we have seen before. And the size of the snow owl is even more puzzling that it can easily rob such a large badger. ”

Before Tiansong could speak, he coughed violently.

Xiang Bei couldn't help but feel guilty in his heart, originally thinking that he would be able to capture the spirit badger this time and restore some vitality to Tiansong, but he didn't expect to have twists and turns, and only brought back the severed arm of a spirit badger.

Probably because he was tormented by injuries and illness, Tiansong's tone was much gentler than usual,

"The disciples were able to hunt for the Jade Bead Spirit Badger in the first battle, which can be regarded as quite a gain. This thing is rare to come into existence, and it is natural for it to be targeted by snowy owls. ”

"Chongguang, you stay, other disciples, go down and repair first. I have important matters to discuss with your uncles. ”

Although everyone had a lot of doubts in their hearts, no one dared to disobey the words of the first elder, so they went back to repair according to Tiansong's arrangement.

Xiang Bei returned to his room and changed the white wolf with new medicine. Unexpectedly, this guy probably really preyed on a lot of Heavenly Seal Spirit Creatures, his physique was exceptionally strong, those terrible wounds healed very quickly, and the new flesh buds had covered the white bones on his forehead, but when he changed the dressing, he grinned at this guy's painful teeth. Fortunately, Xiang Bei's hand was gentle, and he counted a few words by the way, "You guy, you are too self-conscious, in the future, against the enemy, remember to find out the details of the other party first." ”

The white wolf seemed to understand the human language, stared at Xiang Bei's mouth shape, and nodded seriously.

Waiting for the little white wolf to sleep, there was a sound outside the door, it was Yuelai who came to visit with Shikong.

"Senior brother, this time thanks to you. Yuelai remembered the experience on the Jade Bead Peak, and had already told Shikong what had happened along the way, and Shikong couldn't help but admire, "I said a long time ago, Senior Brother Xiangbei will definitely be different." ”

Xiang Bei's old face flushed, "It's better for you to call me by name, when it comes to cultivation, I don't dare to be your senior brother, when I took out that sword, the snow owl hadn't flown far away, if I could have the skill of senior brother, I would have a chance to cut it down." ”

"Hmph, that nerd. When Yuelai mentioned Li Chongguang, she was inexplicably a little angry.

The other two brothers didn't know what the girl was thinking, and they didn't know how to persuade her. At this time, this senior brother was still in the main hall, humbly standing behind Tiansong, listening to his arrangement.

Under all kinds of visions, the action of the Heavenly Seal Peak Boundary Guard is imminent. The news came from the Great Xia side, and there was already a legion of demonic beasts in the world, and they began to attack the human city on a large scale.

Li Chongguang, who had always been calm, couldn't help but interject and ask when he heard this, "Master, aren't our Heavenly Seal Realm Guards still guarding the Boundary Tree? Where did this demon army come from?"

Li Chongguang's questions were normal, and Tian Song asked him to come to listen to the elders' plans, hoping that these young realm guards would be ready for their next move.

It is true that the White-Shou Boundary Tree guards the Realm Pass, but what is blocked by this Realm Pass is the powerful demons whose demon spirits have surpassed the spiritual cultivation realm of this realm. Those demon armies mixed in this realm were originally compressed by the world to a place beyond the Northern Wilderness, but now that they have made a comeback, they should have also sensed the instability of this realm and were ready to break through the order of this human realm.

The realm guard is not only to guard the realm, but also to defend the power of cross-border cultivation in this world. The Demon Army is one of them. Now that the demon army has attacked the border city of Great Xia, judging from the route they marched, Xiqiang, Beiliang, and Nanjun are afraid that they have all fallen, and even the Buzhou Tianzhu and Kunlun Lingyu, who are guarding the western border pass, may have fallen into the hands of the demons.

Li Chongguang was even more puzzled, why the world knew very little about the demon army, and even didn't know about their existence.

Tian'en shook his head, "That's naturally because of our existence, but this time the demon beasts formed an army, obviously someone is behind the scenes, otherwise, most of these demon beasts act according to their natural beastly nature, and they will not merge into a bloodthirsty torrent." ”

"Then the mastermind behind this scene is the reincarnation of the Heavenly Demon?"

Tian En shook his head again, "The Heavenly Demon is the only great demon who has been reborn in the human world for many lifetimes, and he is born with Luo Dan, and he disdains to be in the company of these ordinary demon beasts. ”

Tian Song interrupted the conversation between the two and explained to Li Chongguang, "You have the highest cultivation among the disciples of this generation, and this time, your Heavenly Grace Uncle will take you together to assist Great Xia in resisting the demon army, and by the way, you can also inquire about the whereabouts of the Hongmeng Immortal." I hope you can set an example for you and help Uncle Tian's help. ”

It turns out that this monthly test for hunting spirit badgers is to let everyone accumulate experience in fighting spirit beasts before going down the mountain to exercise the responsibility of guarding the realm. As for the demon armies that will be faced, they should be like this badger, with both the cunning of humans and the ferocity of beasts.

When everyone dispersed, the sword saint Li Chongguang stayed alone.

Tiansong looked at his expression and knew that he had something in his heart, after all, Li Chongguang had always been meticulous and spoke very measuredly.

"Chongguang, do you have anything else?"

The eldest apprentice struggled for a while, lowered his head and whispered, "Master, I think it's better to let the second junior brother lead the junior disciples." ”

Tian Song didn't seem surprised, but replied calmly, "I know all about your hunting for badgers. ”

Chongguang's face turned red, "Master Mingjian, if it weren't for Senior Brother Xiang Bei, I'm afraid that this time we would return in vain." ”

Tiansong didn't care about Chongguang's opinion, "You children are all ill-fated people, Xiang Bei's child has been walking in the rivers and lakes for many years before, and his natural experience is even better. However, one cannot shirk one's responsibilities ......"

When the words stopped, the heavenly song was no longer spoken.

Li Chongguang saw that the master had no intention of continuing to talk about this issue, so he had to go home in a huff.

Yuelai and Shikong had been waiting in the courtyard for a while, and when they saw Li Chongguang coming back, Yuelai wanted to step forward and grab a few more words, but seeing that the senior brother's face was wrong, the mockery he was ready for turned into a sentence of concern,

"What's wrong? ”

Yuelai's tone was full of thoughtfulness, which made Li Chongguang's heart warm. But he didn't say anything, but looked at the juniors and disciples in the courtyard, and finally stopped at Xiang Bei.

"We are about to follow Uncle Tianen out on a field mission, Senior Brother Xiang Bei, although your sword qi is a small success, but if you want to fight the enemy, you still need to practice more. The enemy we face this time is far from your previous opponent. ”

Xiang Bei nodded yes, Yuelai thought that Li Chongguang was deliberately using the identity of the senior brother to put on a fight, and wanted to collide, but the little monk on the side interjected excitedly,

"Senior brother, can we all go, what kind of opponent are we going to face?"

"I don't know the specific situation, you still have to ask Uncle Tian'en, he will lead us to the Great Xia Border City to investigate the situation over there. ”

Xiang Bei suddenly remembered the earth-shattering battle with the sandworms in Shule City. The appearance of the captain of Tangshan and the sisters and brothers of the Zhao family appeared in front of his eyes again, as well as those warriors of the Great Xia Border Army who swore to follow the captain of Tangshan to the death and did not even leave their names.

At that time, Xiang Bei was still tortured by the Gu poison on his body, if it weren't for the desperate battle between the Tangshan captain and the sandworm, if it wasn't for the sacrifice of his life in the Susu granary, Shule would be his own burial place.

Now, Xiang Bei, who has just entered the path of spiritual cultivation, understands that by using spiritual cultivation to dispatch the spirit of heaven and earth, his Mingyang is no longer just a weapon to take people's heads, as long as the sword qi is strong enough, it is bound to be like a sword saint who opens the sky, enough to cut off the evil spirit body of a spirit beast like a spirit badger.

"Senior brother, when are we leaving?Tonight, I would like to ask you to help me guide me through the cultivation method of Lingyuan's manipulation of sword qi. ”

Li Chongguang didn't know Xiang Bei's experience in Shule, but he was also relieved to see him working so hard, "Two junior brothers, you should also go back as soon as possible to make some preparations, and in the near future, we will go out with Uncle Tianen." Senior Brother Xiang Bei, then you can follow me to the bamboo forest behind the courtyard to study the Peerless Sword Qi. ”

Yuelai and Shikong retired without mentioning it, and Li Chongguang continued to help Xiang Bei to comprehend the method of spiritual cultivation in the bamboo forest where he practiced.

"Master taught you a lot of cultivation methods, and the previous martial arts realm has helped you a lot. But if you want to improve your spiritual cultivation, you need more meditation and enlightenment. ”

Martial arts pursue strength and speed, relying on cultivating a pair of skins, but human muscles and bones are only mundane things after all, if you want to have the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, you must use this physical body to manipulate the power of those spiritual elements that run freely between heaven and earth. Li Chongguang recalled that the most difficult and crucial step back then was to completely empty himself and go too empty.

On the bank of Jiuqu River, Li Chongguang enlightened the Tao for ten years, and broke through the realm and slashed out the unparalleled sword qi. Now with the dial of Tiansong, the realm is advancing by leaps and bounds. He carefully passed on his years of cultivation to his junior brother Xiang Bei, hoping to help this eager junior disciple enter the Xuanjing realm of the primary level of spiritual consciousness as soon as possible.

Maybe if Xiang Bei's weak and somewhat ridiculous sword qi can increase its power a little more, it will be able to have the strength to fight with the cultivators of the first level of Xuanjing. If you encounter most of the spirit beasts hidden in the world, even if you are not defeated, you can still protect yourself.

But Xiang Bei felt that it was far from enough, he wanted to be able to break through the middle realm of the first level of spiritual consciousness before he set off. In that way, there will be a chance to fight with the sandworm, "Brother Tangshan, I hope you will not disperse in the spirit of the sky, and watch me avenge you and Sister Zhao Mei'er." ”
