Volume 2 Ancient Sword Chapter 19 Ghost Shadow
Leaving the flesh-and-blood mound and the icy stream of blood, everyone's heart is heavy.
As the saying goes: "Man is born to die!" In this prosperous era of cultivation, there are countless cultivators like those who cross the river. No one would have predicted that perhaps in one of these experiences, they would become a corpse and say goodbye to the world forever.
Death is a serious matter, but sometimes it comes too easily and too casually. Even, sometimes it is too unreasonable. For all sentient beings, the reincarnation of the human world is nothing more than "birth, old age, sickness, death, and suffering", so even if it is the most powerful monk in the world, who can escape this reincarnation?
For Yue Chen and the others, on the long road of cultivation, they just stood at the starting point. Now, they are constantly hurrying, and there is indeed a little bit of a microcosm. Yes, every monk is a constant rusher.
It wasn't until three days later that the roar of a fight came from a mountain in front of them that stopped the group's footsteps. Looking at the past, I saw that when the spirit weapons collided, the sparks splashed everywhere, and there were four sword rays advancing and retreating from each other, shuttling over the mountains. But because the trees in the mountains are extremely lush, it is impossible to tell which sect belongs to the Three Fox Sect.
Xiao Yao motioned for everyone not to walk forward, but he squatted down and dug up a handful of soil, sniffed it, slammed it a few times with his fingers, and got up and said: "This should be the Blood Mangling in the Red Forest Region! From now on, everyone should be 120,000 careful!"
Ju Yong continued: "Xuemangling is one of the most explored areas in the Red Forest Region that has given birth to the most spiritual materials of heaven and earth, and its name is no less prosperous than that of the Flint Valley. But whoever knows about this place, if it is a helpless outer disciple, will be intercepted and killed halfway like us. If there are outer disciples or inner disciples who have strong backers, they will rush directly to such treasure places to find extremely high-grade heaven and earth treasures. Many of the spiritual materials found in these places were treasures that even the red-robed elders would covet. ”
Shen Shao followed up and said: "Blood Mango, Blood Mango Vine, and Blood Mango Silk are the three uniques of Blood Mangling, and they are also the red order tasks of the sect. Blood Mango, also known as the Extreme Fire Earth Immortal Fruit, has its roots on the ground and the fruit is underground; Blood Mango Vine, also known as Aya Luo Neon, is the most difficult to collect because only a small section of it is a precious material, and the rest is highly poisonous, so it is the most difficult to collect; Blood Mango Silk, also known as the Sky Striped Dragon Tendon ,...!"
"It's the hardest one to find?" Dongmen Yu said first, "So, the nine of you, have you ever seen these three things?"
Ban snorted and said, "If we had seen these three rare things, would we have survived until now?"
"That's a fart!" Dongmen Yu looked at the nine people with great disgust, and then said to Yue Chen: "Big brother, these people are unreliable. In my opinion, it's easier to grab!"
"Hey, don't say it, this really makes sense!" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Since someone came first, it means that they know these three things, and perhaps, they have already found them." ”
"It seems that there is really no choice!" Yue Chen said lightly, "The winner is the king, and the loser is the king!" I have to try our luck!" With that, he took out the Seven Evil Swords from the Ruyi bag and walked forward slowly. The people who followed behind were surprisingly calm, breathing evenly and walking in a coordinated manner. They are not like monks who are about to participate in the struggle for life and death, but more like regular guests to the feast.
Yue Chen first targeted the attack on the four people who were fighting in the air. Judging from the sword mang, Yue Chen couldn't tell that they were disciples of a certain sect at all. Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard Xiao Yao say: "Looking at the spiritual weapons used by these four people, it looks like the disciples of the Holy Fox Sect are fighting in the house. ”
"Old horseman, don't fart!" Du Tian suddenly scolded, "This is the inner disciples of the Divine Fox Sect and the Immortal Fox Sect fighting!"
"Huh!" Xiao Yao was a little embarrassed and muttered, "You mean, these are the Yellow Fox disciples of the two factions? If that's the case, it seems right!"
Compared with the outer disciples, the inner disciples are high-ranking figures, unattainable existences, and the outer disciples only have the fate of being enslaved like ants. However, for Yue Chen, apart from the fact that they were new opponents, there would not be any psychological barriers to the gap between the identities of inner and outer disciples. At this time, Yue Chen instead wanted to verify that an inner disciple like Chengming Sect himself was equal in strength to the inner disciple of the Three Fox Sect. Therefore, during the march, Yue Chen quietly made a gesture, and the sword volleyed away.
Qingqiuzhou, Honglin region, Xuemangling.
When a purple sword ray appeared in the Blood Mangling Ridge, the four people who were fighting fiercely in the air suddenly stopped and surrounded this purple sword ray together. After a slight pause, the purple sword light dodged back a few feet and slowly landed. The four of them still surrounded Yue Chen tightly and surrounded Yue Chen in the middle.
Yue Chen had seen the disciples of the Three Fox Sect, and judging from their clothes, these four people were all disciples of the Immortal Fox Sect. According to Xiao Yao, the disciples of the Immortal Fox Sect majored in the magic of Fu Seal, and they did not attach much importance to the Dao magic power of the other two sects. He said: "Right now, these four people must be non-mainstream inner disciples of the Immortal Fox Sect. There's no need to beware of the strange runes. ”
At the same time, Yue Chen also deeply admired these people. Go all out when you fight inward, and work together when you are outside. This situation, if it weren't for the long-term inheritance of the sect, I am afraid that I would not be able to comprehend it for a while.
"There are so many dead people in the Divine Fox Sect!"
"Hehe, on this Blood Mangling, the disciples of the Divine Fox Sect have died several times before and after, and now there are still people who dare to come, I really feel sorry!"
"It's just that there is a little bit of a beautiful woman, but it's a pity that the 'Spring Festival Qianjinsan' I prepared is completely useless!"
"Flower butterfly, don't forget, there is a knife on the tip of the word 'color'!"
After the four of them took turns to joke again, they suddenly fell silent again. Yue Chen felt that these four people didn't take themselves seriously at all, and it seemed that the four of them couldn't reach an agreement on how to die, which caused this peaceful situation to appear.
Suddenly, a purple sword shot up into the sky, and the sword turned into a resting cloud, scattering in all directions. The other four sword rays followed, holding the four elephant positions and attacking the purple sword rays together. Just as the two sides were about to make contact, the flowing clouds formed by the purple sword rays instantly condensed, transforming into a circular skyline, meeting the four powerful sword rays that attacked.
"Zheng, Zheng, Zheng, Zheng" The sound of the four spiritual weapons breaking sounded, followed by four sounds of blood spurting. A trembling voice said, "You are not an outer disciple of the Divine Fox Sect!"
Yue Chen's sword fell to the ground, nodded, and said, "Good eyesight! It's just, it's a pity that it's ......!" Before he finished speaking, four thunderous fireballs attacked him, Yue Chen was taken aback, and exclaimed: "Fu Seal Technique!"
Seeing that he couldn't dodge, the sword momentum was blocked, and his mind was driven quickly, and the light of the upside-down Big Dipper appeared on his chest and back, faintly like a pair of sleeping dragons on his body.
"Boom!" The four powerful fireballs struck Yue Chen's body and sword solidly, and they were immediately knocked away a few feet away, and slammed into a thousand-year-old tree. Yue Chen subconsciously reached into the Ruyi bag, poured out a four-grade spirit pill, and swallowed it along with the blood gushing out of his throat.
Yue Chen took the Ice Heart Xuandan, which he had never been willing to use. The Dan prescription of this elixir only exists in the Yuqing vein of the sect, which shows its preciousness. When Yue Chen came back from that mysterious region, there were exactly three fourth-grade Ice Heart Xuandans in the only high-grade Ruyi bag that Chu Yun lent to him. Today, at this moment of life and death, Yue Chen still resolutely accepted the next one.
As soon as the Ice Heart Xuandan entered the body, it turned into countless dotted crystals, swimming in Yue Chen's eight veins and five internal organs, nourishing the Jade Mansion. The fire that had risen in the body before was gradually suppressed and extinguished. As soon as he had a chance to breathe, Yue Chen immediately volleyed his sword in the air to prevent another round of joint attacks from his opponent. At the moment when the sword was just right, the four giant trees were in the same mountain and pressed towards Yue Chen.
Yue Chen's divine heart was unified, driven by the spiritual power of the Jade Mansion, the seven evil swords in his hand once again appeared bright light, and an even more powerful sword momentum was used with all his might, slashing towards the center of the four giant trees.
In an instant, four earth-shattering roars spread throughout the surrounding Baizhang area, and the four giant trees were smashed to pieces. A purple sword light did not pause, and turned into a wisp of light smoke, passing through the swirling giant wood chips, the sword was full again, and the sword momentum was like light and lightning, and it slashed at the four people with the power of thunderbolt.
When a sword falls, everything is silent! This is where the true realm of the Flowing Clouds and One Sword lies! However, Yue Chen has not yet cultivated to such a realm, and there is still a sound of rustling around him. That was because Yue Chen's sword momentum could not completely suppress the aura of heaven and earth wherever the sword momentum went.
Yue Chen quietly watched the four corpses fall to the ground with a "plop", and said in his heart: "The next moment, it's time to search for the Ruyi bag on their bodies!" While thinking, a figure popped out from the woods next to him, and someone hurriedly shouted: "Big brother, it's me! Don't mess around!" As he spoke, the figure quickly flashed to the side of the four corpses and quickly searched.
"Good guys, why do these four bastards have so many wishful bags?"
Ximen Xue also rushed over, counted them carefully, and finally said, "Wow! There are twenty-four Ruyi bags in total! Moreover, there are four embroidered with red foxes!"
Dongmen Yuyi picked up four special Ruyi bags and said angrily: "Xiaoxue, don't talk nonsense!
Yue Chen shook his head and ordered: "Xiaoyu, don't be careful! Quickly concentrate the spiritual materials of the Ruyi bag, and you and Senior Brother Xiao will distribute the spiritual materials to the senior brothers!" and said to Nangong Lang: "Xiaolang, can you find other situations around here? I remember that when I first heard the shouting of killing, the sound should not have been made by four people. Why is this time surprisingly quiet!"
Shen Shao said: "I think they must have been frightened away by Senior Brother Yue's sword momentum! That group of people will definitely hide, and in this way, the threat to us will be even greater!
A few people who were picking up spiritual materials on the side were surprised again and again, and Xiao Yao said: "This time, it can be regarded as a windfall. Not to mention that there are a hundred cloud crystal grade spirit stones, and there are more than a dozen second-order spirit weapons that are worthy of their hands. There are also quite a few third-order spiritual materials. The old man roughly calculated, and each person could get a lot of Divine Fox souls. ”
Dongmen Yu doesn't care so much, pick the best spiritual materials and spirit stones, and put them into four special Ruyi bags. Everything related to the sigil, packed together. said casually: "The rest, the nine of you will divide it!" walked to Yue Chen's side with a smile, and said in a deep voice: "This is your share!" and gave Ximen Xue and Nangong Lang one each.
Xiao Yao and the others didn't say anything, and it seemed that there was nothing to say, maybe when Dongmen Yu left all the spiritual weapons to them, he firmly blocked the mouths of the nine people. All of them shared the spiritual materials on the ground with joyful faces. But the disgust for Dongmen Rain seems to be slowly brewing.
Nangong Lang, who had not spoken for a long time, slowly put away the Ruyi bag and said softly: "Strange! I obviously noticed that someone was coming just now, why did I suddenly disappear again." ”
Yue Chen smiled slightly, patted Nangong Lang's shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Senior Brother Xiao, what should we do next?"
Xu Peng waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet, but he pinched his fingers there and calculated, which provoked Dongmen Yu and others to laugh out loud. After a while, Xu Peng came over and said: "Jingyun: 'A line for the yin base, a fan for the yang base'." Now, we are on the line of yin potential, and we are all masculine, so it is most advantageous to go in the direction of the yang trend. If Senior Brother Yue doesn't mind, how about I lead the way?"
"Very good!" Yue Chen said with a smile, "I didn't expect Senior Brother Xu to be so proficient in the science of feng shui physiognomy, admire, admire!"
"Senior Brother Yue, do you also know this kind of out-of-the-way thing?"
"I don't understand! It's just that I did see what Senior Brother Xu said just now in the classics!"
"What kind of classics, did the senior brother carry them with him?"
"Ahh
After Xu Peng took the bamboo slip, after flipping through a few pieces, he looked surprised and a little puzzled, and muttered: "How is this possible?" Suddenly, he closed the bamboo slip again, and began to close his eyes and think. After a long time, he said, "Senior Brother Yue, how about leaving this bamboo slip here for the time being?"
"Yes, but remember to pay me back!"
Everyone looked at Xu Peng, who was acting strangely, but his performance was also a serious state that no one had ever seen. I saw that he had collected the bamboo slips as if he had obtained a treasure, and then walked towards the southeast. Walked all the way, calculated all the way, and brought everyone into an extremely hidden dense forest.
Xu Peng said: "It's still very early before the end of the hunt of the Three Fox Sect. This is a place that I have specially chosen for us to rest. In my opinion, let's rest for three days first, and wait and see if there will be any unlucky ghosts who will take the initiative to send it to the door. ”
Xiao Yao said: "I think it is feasible! Everyone has been on the road for such a long time, and they almost rely on weeds to satisfy their hunger." If you don't recuperate, the next test of life and death will not be easy. ”
The rest of the people also had no opinion and began to rest. Xiao Yao and the others still took out the loot just now very carefully, and looked at it carefully a few times before they felt satisfied. But when the hearts of the people are satisfied, the nine people looked at Dongmen Yu while putting away their respective wishful bags.
Nothing happened for a while, and time passed. In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the hour, and it was about to enter the night intercourse. There was a "buosh" wind roar around the woods, and a powerful eerie aura gradually swept in.
In a trance, a gust of wind blew, Ximen Xue screamed, Nangong Lang's eyes released a strange light, Dongmen Yu got up to protect Ximen Xue, and the other nine people gathered behind Nangong Lang. At the same time, a purple sword light as fast as a meteor stabbed towards the black shadow that the yin wind blew.
When the sword arrived, the black shadow passed. It's as if it didn't happen.
Yue Chen was stunned for a moment, obviously being hit by his own sword qi, how could the black shadow disappear without a trace. Xin said: "If there are disciples of the Three Fox Sect who practice such Taoism and cultivation to come, then wouldn't we have to wait for death?"
Suddenly, Nangong Lang's body was like a wolf, and he pounced on the other side of the woods with a broken sword in his hand, and the sword momentum from the Emperor Scar Sword struck the same black shadow. However, the result was no different from Yue Chen's.
The ethereal black shadow silently appeared in front of the two of them not far away.
Suddenly, the black shadow let out a sigh of "um", and disappeared silently in front of everyone's eyes.
"Ghosts?"
