175, Old Man (1)
Lin Xueqing recovered, and the three of them stood in front of the door, and the mildew in the tower had almost dissipated. Although it still smells strong, at least it is harmless to humans.
It's just that the three of them stood in front of the door in unison, but they didn't rush in, but looked into the dark tower, not knowing what they were waiting for or what they were thinking.
"Let's go in, since this sword tower is the place of our Shu Mountain, there shouldn't be any problems!" Lin Xueqing opened her mouth to break the silence.
After all, Su Yang and Chu Yan were still very wary of the Sword Tower, which was naturally slightly uncomfortable in Lin Xueqing's heart. After all, Shushan is her sect, even if Shushan is more like a laughing stock in the cultivation world now, but in Lin Xueqing's eyes, she is a disciple of the Shushan faction, a proud Shushan disciple.
After finishing speaking, Lin Xueqing withdrew the long sword in his hand and stepped into the sword tower first. Dressed in white, the snow is better than the cold.
Seeing this, Su Yang and Chu Yan glanced at each other, smiled bitterly at each other, and could only follow Lin Xueqing in. The two of them didn't actually mean to target Lin Xueqing, but after all, it seemed that this place had been abandoned for so long, and it was not a bad thing to be careful.
Just like this Forest of Fear, after being abandoned for hundreds of years, isn't the periphery of the forest that once served the disciples of Shushan Mountain to experience also a step-by-step crisis?
Of course, these Su Yang naturally wouldn't explain, and neither would Chu Yan. In their opinion, Lin Xueqing will always understand, and there is no need to explain at all. There are too many explanations, but it is not good.
Entering the tower, there was a "boom" sound from behind, and the faint light from the forest had disappeared, and the tower door was tightly closed.
Airplanes!
Su Yang's face changed, and before they could speak, there was a sudden buzzing sound around them. This humming sound lasted for a long time, and as the humming sound continued to sound, whether it was Su Yang or Lin Xueqing, they always felt that the sword qi in their bodies had suddenly received an invisible traction, which made them almost unable to suppress it.
At the same time, the surroundings slowly lit up, and the light of various colors shone together, and then the shocking scene in the sword tower was revealed.
This is the first and largest level of the Sword Tower, and the whole floor is extremely empty, except for the staircase in the distance.
And those rays of light came from the walls around them. On the walls were square amber, and in each amber was a long sword sealed. And these lights, as well as the traction power of the sword qi in Su Yang and Lin Xueqing's bodies, came from the long swords in these ambers.
There are nine rows of amber sword boxes on each wall from top to bottom, and each row of nine long swords makes one wall full of eighty-one. And this tower is hexagonal, and the number of swords on the six walls is the same.
Seeing this scene, Su Yang and the others were all shocked, this is only the first layer of the sword tower, there are hundreds of long swords, and through the amber sword box, the quality of these long swords is not bad.
"It's really worthy of the Sword Tower, there is such a big deal on the first layer alone, the Shushan Sect is really a generation of Sword Sect!" Chu Yan was shocked when she saw such a scene, no less shocked than Su Yang and Lin Xueqing, and she opened her mouth to praise from the bottom of her heart.
Hearing this, Lin Xueqing also nodded, her eyes faintly flashed eagerly, this kind of emotion had never appeared on Lin Xueqing's face. I only heard Lin Xueqing say: "Is this the real strength of Shushan back then, as far as I know, there were more than 10,000 disciples in the heyday of Shushan, and there were hundreds of core disciples in the first generation." If everyone could wear such a long sword, coupled with the fierce sword aura of Shu Mountain, what kind of scene would this be?"
As soon as Lin Xueqing's words fell, Su Yang and Chu Yan's faces changed, and they already had a picture in their minds. Above the blue sky and blue sky, thousands of rays of light crossed the sky like ribbons, and they were all swords.
And above the sword, there is a disciple wearing a Shushan Taoist uniform, looking forward to Shenfei and walking with the sword. This kind of scene can not be described as spectacular, it cannot be described as grandiose.
"This is the forbidden land of Shushan, and those who trespass will die!"
Who knew that at this moment, a sound of thick vicissitudes suddenly sounded, as if it was shouting and cheering for this voice, and the swords on the surrounding walls also made a humming dragon roar, and the momentum was grand.
Hearing this, Su Yang's faces changed. Lin Xueqing, on the other hand, took a step forward and saluted in the direction where the voice came from: "Lin Xueqing, a disciple in Xia Shu Mountain, got lost here because he came to the Fear Forest to experience because he was ordered by his master. When I saw the Sword Tower of this gate, I wanted to come in and worship, and by the way, I looked for the road to Shushan. If there is any offense, I hope the seniors will forgive me!"
"What?"
Suddenly, the sword light around him shot out, and at the same time condensed at the staircase not far away, and in an instant, he saw a figure slowly condense and appear in front of everyone.
This is an old man, although he looks like he is about to die, but the aura emanating from his body is really not much worse than that of the real person of the Heavenly Destiny. Especially the edge on his body, it makes people feel that there is not a person in front of him at all, but a divine weapon!
The old man's eyes stared at Lin Xueqing tightly: "You said you are a disciple of Shu Mountain?"
"Yes, the junior is a disciple of Shushan. Lin Xueqing said neither humbly nor arrogantly, although she felt that the old man seemed to be deliberately releasing sword qi towards her, but Lin Xueqing just carried it.
"Then do you know who the old man is?" the old man asked lightly.
Lin Xueqing looked at the old man, shook his head and said: "The juniors don't know, it's really not a secret, even if it is this sword tower, it is the juniors who saw the prohibition of Shushan above the tower gate before, and only then did they know that Shushan belongs." And before this, the younger generation had never even heard of it here. ”
"Hmph!" the old man said angrily, "You are lying, you are definitely not a disciple of Shushan, how can a disciple of Shushan not know the Sword Tower? Could it be that Guchen taught you like this?"
Hearing the old man mention the word "lonely dust", Lin Xueqing's face suddenly became strange, and she looked at the old man with some incredulity in her eyes.
The old man naturally noticed Lin Xueqing's expression, and asked, "Why are you looking at the old man like this, is it because the old man exposed your lies?"
Lin Xueqing shook her head and said, "That's not the case, the younger generation is indeed from Shushanmen." The reason why the younger generations were surprised was because the Guchen Master Ancestor in the mouth of the seniors was the head of the sect eight hundred years ago, and he had already soared. ”
"How so?"
When the old man heard the news of the ascension of the lonely dust, he suddenly became excited, his eyes flashed with an incomprehensible brilliance, and asked, "How did the lonely dust soar, doesn't he know that the head of the Shu Mountain Sect, all the heads of the Nine Tribulations Ascension Period must be in the door for three thousand years to be a Supreme Elder before they can ascend?"
Listening to Guchen's words, Lin Xueqing also sighed slightly, and said: "What was the situation back then, the younger generation didn't know, but I think it should be related to the tide of ascension." ”
