Chapter 68: The Ancient Star Bridge
Periphery of Cangjie Mountain, Golden Horn Peak.
This Golden Horn Peak is located in the place of 20 miles north of Cangjie Mountain, looking at it from a distance, it looks like a rhinoceros horn, standing tall and steep, rising from the ground.
Because this place is extremely steep, and it is a place where the surrounding Yin Spirit Qi gathers, the fog is filled all day, and the air is damp, ordinary Ancient Sword Sect disciples will avoid it from afar, and they will not easily step into this peak.
However, it was such a place, which was now occupied by five monks dressed in strange robes. Four of them were dressed in rough linen coats with a black bag wrapped around their waists, and they did not know what to do. The other is an old woman with a snake cane, with a face full of furrows, and has experienced the vicissitudes of time.
If Lin Xuanqing was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that this group of people was an overseas evil cultivator from the Demon Sea.
The old woman looked at the direction of Cangjie Mountain from afar, saw that the black gas was filled with black gas above, and the fire reflected in the sky, and stretched out her dry right hand to pinch her fingers to deduce something, and after a while, she made an unusually low and hoarse voice in her mouth: "It's almost time." The altar will be opened immediately, and you will wait for the old body to protect the Dharma!"
The four giants in short coats suddenly agreed, strode towards the edge of the Golden Horn Peak, and each stood in one direction, with a serious expression, like a statue of King Kong with angry eyes.
The old woman saw the four of them standing still, showing a look of satisfaction, and then raised her hand to "snap" the Tianling Gai, and suddenly a ball of blood light erupted, drowning her whole body. And immediately after, a bronze small tripod exuding the vicissitudes of life slowly emerged from the bloody light and circulated endlessly in the air.
This tripod is engraved with various mystical runes, flashing with streamers, and three different hideous grimaces are engraved on three sides, and the bloody aura fills the surroundings, giving people a gloomy feeling.
When the blood light converged, the old woman's figure flickered, and appeared ten zhang away from Ding, and the snake-shaped crutch in her hand pointed at Xiao Ding. In an instant, treasure talismans emerged, and obscure inscriptions were intertwined, and they bombarded into Xiaoding. Each inscription hit the small ding, and the small ding suddenly lit up with a bloody light, skyrocketing by one point. When the hundreds of inscriptions poured in, the bronze ancient tripod was already huge, the shadow covered the entire mountain, and a monstrous bloody aura spread.
"Wow!"
Suddenly, there was a terrible ghost roar from a distance, and then a black shadow seemed to be attracted by the bronze ancient ding, galloping from Cangjie Mountain at an astonishing speed, followed by the second and third ...... In the end, those shadows converged into a terrifying cloud, and they were thrown into the bronze ancient ding like moths to a fire.
Each shadow is the soul of a monk who died tragically in Cangjie Mountain.
These souls were originally immortal cultivators before they died, and even if they died, their souls would not collapse in an instant like mortals, but could last for a while.
And it is precisely in this way, attracted by the blood of this bronze ancient ding, countless souls have surged in. For a while, the bloody aura covered the starry sky above the Golden Horn Peak, cutting this place into an independent Yin Soul World, and countless ghost crying howls rang out from all directions, making people's scalps tingle.
......
Since the opening of the Ancient Sword Gate Protector Array, for three consecutive days and three nights, there is no sun in a radius of 100 miles, and there is only a vast starry sky as far as the sky can be seen.
Carrying a green short sword, Bai Ling walked cautiously through a narrow foothill, followed by seven or eight monks and men in blue shirts.
Although these men and women in blue shirts were all higher in cultivation than her, they were all seriously injured. She was the only one who was desperately protected by several of her classmates in front of her, and she was still intact.
"Senior brothers, senior sisters, we have escaped more than sixty miles from Cangjie Mountain now, and we think we should be almost safe. You hold on a little longer, and when we find a place to stay, we can rest again. After days of killing, Bai Ling's eyes were full of exhaustion, but he still beat his spirit and encouraged everyone.
"Senior Sister Bailing, if you hadn't accidentally discovered a secret passage this time to help us leave Cangjie Mountain, I'm afraid none of us would have survived. If there is any more danger, you should escape alone, and don't be implicated by us again. A ninth-layer male cultivator of the Cloud Qi Jue smiled bitterly.
"yes. Senior Brother Ma is right, we are all seriously injured, and even if we escape, it is still unknown whether we will be able to recover. I really shouldn't bother you anymore. ”
"That's right, it's a waste person if it's cured. ”
"What's more, there are enemies everywhere now, where is there a place for us to stay. ”
......
Everyone agreed, their eyes full of despair.
"You ...... How can you say that?" said Bai Ling, with tears in his eyes, "no matter what danger we are in, we must be strong to live! ”
"To be alive is to have hope?"
Everyone looked at Bai Ling in amazement, and couldn't believe that she could say such a thing at such a young age.
"In short, I won't give up!"
Bai Ling thought of the words that Lin Xuanqing had left for himself before leaving, and suddenly his spirit perked up again, and he expressed his determination loudly.
Everyone looked at each other, perhaps inspired by Bailing, and finally supported each other again and struggled forward.
They were greeted by an endless black curtain, or a bright rebirth......
In a swamp on the west side of Cangjie Mountain, the stench of rotting corpses wafted into the air, making people can't help but feel sick when they smell it. This swamp is very vast, stretching for thousands of miles, and it is the largest swamp in the entire Great Chu Country - Yunmengze. On a dead tree deep in the swamp, a blue-robed monk sat cross-legged, with long hair and a shawl, starlight spreading all over his body, and stains of blood faintly visible.
This is Lin Xuanqing, who escaped from under the sword of Na Chu Nantian and ascended to heaven. In fact, the moment the giant sword approached his body, he hid deep underground, but he was still inevitably affected by the sword qi and was seriously injured. Then, with the help of the raised loess, he used the low-level magic technique of thunder cracking space to forcibly break a path of more than 100 zhang from the ground, and then escaped.
He had been sitting on this dead tree for two days and two nights, repairing his injuries little by little with the power of the vast stars that had fallen in the firmament, and after devouring two or three Breitling grasses in a row, he finally healed the injuries. Moreover, at this moment, the power of the stars in his body was as vast as a river, and he had already rushed directly towards the twelfth layer of the Cloud Qi Jue.
It had been a short time since he had broken through the eleventh layer of the Cloud Qi Jue last time, and he didn't expect to break through again in such a short period of time. However, this coincidence, after the rotation of the power of the Big Dipper, it is like a fish drilling into the ocean, and the growth speed is amazing, which cannot be inferred by common sense.
"Maybe Chu Nantian is right, no matter how high the talent is, if he doesn't go through all kinds of tempering, he is still just a silver-like pewter spear head, and it is difficult to escape the doom of premature death! From today onwards, I will open up my own path of Heavenly Dao!"
Lin Xuanqing recalled all the things that had appeared in the past few days, and he felt that his strength was weak, and he felt a sense of powerlessness.
If he was strong enough, he wouldn't watch Senior Sister Bailing die;
If he was strong enough, he would not be forced back by Chu Nantian's sword, panicking like a lost dog;
If he is strong enough, he should be able to stop dozens of sects from besieging Cangjie Mountain and continue the inheritance of the ancient sword sect......
"The vast sea of stars, add my body, build the ancient road, open up the ancient and modern...... Desolate Ancient Star Bridge, Qi!" As Lin Xuanqing's low and sonorous voice sounded, a colorful star belt suddenly formed above his head, mighty and mighty, directly hitting the unusually bright Big Dipper star.
Thundered......
A loud sound that seemed to connect to the Ancient Desolation sounded in the depths of the endless firmament, and it was like a powerful and incomparable ancient beast roaring, shaking the Eight Desolations and Liuhe.
An unprecedented Desolate Ancient Star Bridge emerged, connecting Lin Xuanqing with the boundless starry sky, and the power of the rolling stars blasted into his dantian along the Desolate Ancient Star Bridge.
In just an instant, the barrier of the twelfth layer of the Cloud Qi Jue was crushed.
At the same time, in Nadan Lake, the endless spiritual power was completely covered by the power of this huge star, and then with a "boom", it burned and was evaporated in the blink of an eye.
A large number of earthy yellow stars seize Danhu Lake, and there is a tendency of "doves occupy magpies' nests". And the momentum around him was still skyrocketing, rushing to the peak of the twelfth layer of the Cloud Qi Jue in one go. Then after a slight pause, it suddenly boiled again, and walked towards the thirteenth layer of the Cloud Qi Technique.
The Ancient Star Bridge is the dividing line between geniuses and peerless geniuses by ancient monks.
Only when the Ancient Star Bridge emerges can the stars be truly communicated, and even during the day, you can feel the endless starry sky overhead, thus increasing the cultivation speed to a terrifying level.
It is said that even those peerless geniuses who want to comprehend the Desolate Ancient Star Bridge need to wait until after the Cloud Sea Realm, but Lin Xuanqing forcibly constructed it under strong pressure when he broke through the twelfth layer of the Cloud Qi Technique. His body, after absorbing the power of a large number of stars, has been strengthened like never before, and his gestures are full of explosive power.
