break the way [comprehension]

At the moment when Du Ziteng retreated the enemy with a few words and jokes, although the disciples of the Hengxiao Sword Sect were hesitant, no matter how he did it, it would make Biyue City and Daxue Palace clearly harbor malicious intentions. The sect retreated, and all the disciples breathed a sigh of relief.

Du Ziteng was triumphant, his arrogance with his hips akimbo made all the sword cultivators speechless and funny, but Xiao Chen, who was about to fight with others before, changed his complexion, his figure flickered, and he almost fell down due to unsteady steps on the ground.

Du Ziteng next to Xiao Chen was the closest, so he was the first to react, and hurriedly supported him, but with this support, Du Ziteng's complexion suddenly changed drastically.

He only felt that where Xiao Chen's body touched, it was as if he was directly touching something strangely cold through his clothes. Follow the fingertips along the meridians and go straight to the dantian, making his whole body as cold and numb as if immersed in a nine-cold ice spring.

Shen Ren was naturally taken aback when he saw this, and quickly supported Xiao Chen from the other side, but secretly wondered in his heart, although the eldest brother's body was a little colder, it wouldn't make Du Ziteng freeze like this with just one touch, right?

After Shen Ren stabilized himself, Du Ziteng hurriedly let go. At this moment, his face was livid and shivering from the cold, and he was desperately running his spiritual power on the spot, jumping and jumping, trying to warm himself up, while Xiao Chen's complexion was After contacting Du Ziteng, he obviously improved a little, but the disciples of the Hengxiao Sword Sect around him were confused and confused.

Shen Ren tried to infuse spiritual power into Xiao Chen's body to help him, but found in vain that his spiritual power was different from Xiao Chen's because of the difference between the golden core and the foundation building, or because the elder brother had inherited the divine pagoda. He was out of place, and his contact with Xiao Chen didn't make Xiao Chen better at all, only Shen Ren looked at Du Ziteng very strangely.

But Du Ziteng was not exaggerating at all. It took him a long time to recover gradually, but he felt that the dantian was still bitingly cold. He took out the small wooden stick and saw that there was a thick layer of knots on the poor little thing. Frost, even the newly grown baby leaf was frozen in thick ice crystals, it looked crystal clear and cute, but as the master who was connected by blood, Du Ziteng couldn't help but feel a little heartache.

Du Ziteng repeatedly used his spiritual power to warm up the little wooden stick, but he didn't know what kind of cold he had contracted when he touched Xiao Chen just now. His spiritual power sank into the small wooden stick, and he felt endless condensation. The melting speed is really limited.

His torment fell into the eyes of everyone, so he couldn't help being secretly surprised, obviously Du Ziteng didn't deliberately exaggerate it, but it was true that he was frozen into this appearance just now when he touched Xiao Chen.

Moreover, judging from Du Ziteng's contact with Xiao Chen just now, one got better and the other was frozen... It was as if Du Ziteng shared some of the freezing power for Xiao Chen.

Du Ziteng was caught off guard just now, if he hadn't reacted in time, it would not be impossible for his whole body to be frozen into a popsicle. Didn't you see that the magic weapon he summoned from his dantian was all frozen into a popsicle?

But Shen Ren who was beside Du Ziteng was still supporting Xiao Chen but was safe and sound, which made people puzzled. Du Ziteng frowned and said, "Could it be that the infection is only transmitted to the first person in contact?"

It's really strange, this bit of confusion was quickly forgotten, Xiao Chen, who was suspected to have shared some of the freezing damage from Du Ziteng, quickly cheered up, and only tried his best to use his spiritual power and said succinctly: "This place is not suitable for staying for a long time."

All the sword cultivators were silent, even for Du Ziteng, who was as nervous as Du Ziteng, the smug expression on his face faded away invisible.

Intellectually, everyone knows that this place is infested with demonic energy, and it is no longer suitable for cultivation. If they got their ideas, it was hard to guarantee that there would be no further incidents. The longer they stayed here, the more thoroughly their whereabouts would be exposed, which would be even more detrimental to them.

However, when everyone looked around, it was empty and fragmented. The plants, trees, pavilions and pavilions they were familiar with had already disappeared in the terrifying space vortex above their heads, but this place... was, after all, where each of them once proudly belonged. The greatest shelter, the place that leaves the deepest imprint on them.

The vortex above the head is still exhaling demonic energy non-stop, staining the former holy land of comprehension into such a mess that it is almost hard to recognize, is it necessary to leave like this?

Du Ziteng was the first to get up suddenly and took a step forward: "One day, we will definitely come back!"

After saying this sentence, many sword cultivators were stunned, and then as if they had been injected with a lot of energy by this short sentence, many disciples got up silently and followed behind Du Ziteng.

Yes, one day, they will definitely come back.

At this time, Xiao Chen, who had no sense of presence, was dumbfounded behind them: By the way... do these guys know where they are going?Did you just leave like that?

Many sword cultivators don't know, but Du Ziteng knows the destination very well. He is talking to Xiao Chen plausibly at this moment: "Of course we are going to meet the mayor and the others."

Xiao Chen was having doubts in his mind: "The ancient city of Suiyi?"

This ancient city of Suiyi can be said to be the first cultivation city in the cultivation world. According to rumors, it was originally just a mortal city, but because it is not far from several major cultivation holy places, this mortal city has gradually produced many Cultivators, naturally there are monks who barter here, and so on, after it becomes more and more prosperous, it becomes a comprehension city.

The name "Suiyi" is also named after Suiyi because of the convenience of trading here.

It can be said that before Du Ziteng stepped in and the standardized business district of Xianyuan Town took shape, Suiyi City was the most lively trading center spontaneously formed in the cultivation world. Traffic, but now, Feng Shui has taken turns, and Suiyi naturally returned to the throne of the number one transaction volume.

Xiao Chen's question is obviously not only about the ancient city of Suiyi, anyone with common sense in the cultivation world is very familiar with this city, his question is: Du Ziteng arranged for the mayor and the others to go to Suiyi early in the morning?Looking at Du Ziteng's method of scaring away Daxue Palace and Biyue City just now, this easy trip, did Du Ziteng have arrangements early on, and left behind?

For Xiao Chen's sharp eyes, few people in the entire cultivation world can believe it, but Du Ziteng is not a mortal, he just smiled: "You beg me~ I will tell you if I beg you."

Shen Ren and many other sword cultivators on the side looked sideways, but Xiao Chen was not angry at all, instead he smiled lightly: "Are you sending a message to the mayor, and publishing the image of the guarding formation to the entire ancient city of Suiyi? Or, in fact, it’s not a guard formation at all, but a talisman like water mirror technique that you only used after the appearance of Yu Shen from Jade Moon City?”

Du Ziteng turned his head and looked Xiao Chen up and down: "Not bad, you are almost half as smart as my master!"

Xiao Chen just laughed and said nothing, if Du Ziteng had the foresight to think of the disappearance of the Yunheng Summit and the looting of Biyue City when he arranged for the mayor and the others to evacuate, Xiao Chen would never believe it, because at that time, even if it was him I never thought that things would take such a sudden turn for the worse.

That's why he speculated that Du Ziteng's talisman transmission image was activated only after he saw Yu Shen from the Jade Moon City, and maybe it wasn't a large guard formation that was left here in advance.

Du Ziteng's explanation is somewhere between the two: "The town guard has a large array on me, and it does have the function of monitoring. In order to contact the mayor, he also has other talismans that can be seen on the array. The situation, half and half of the two."

Shen Ren suddenly realized: "So, you still used the formation and talismans to make so many monks in the ancient city of Suiyi witness every move of Biyue City and Daxue Palace? And in words, Shen He Shan Yu Ling and the two hinted that the mayor in the ancient city of Suiyi could "monitor everything here". Everyone in the cultivation world knows their shameless behavior? The other party summoned you for a little verification, and you will know that what you said is true. Emphasizing that they must have Gengjin Qi, they actually couldn't do it, but they never dared to tell such a big lie in front of the entire cultivation world, so they were shocked away?"

Then Du Ziteng nodded, and then he emphasized to Shen Ren seriously: "This is called 'live broadcast', and it is the first step in the 'public opinion war'."

At this time, Du Ziteng's expression had an indescribable solemnity: "The Heavenly Demon invaded, and our Hengxiao Sword Sect clearly tried our best to resist it, but in the end it ended like this. Haven't you ever thought about the reason?"

Xiao Chen was silent.

He thought about it, of course he thought about it, among them, there are too many mistakes, Hua Yi's missteps, his intentional indulging in evil, the timing of the invasion of extraterrestrial demons... and even the last days of Daxue Palace and Biyue City. The ulterior motives of making a move at a critical moment, in these various links, as long as there is a loop that can stop it, the Hengxiao Sword Sect will never reach such a situation.

But Du Ziteng's answer was in a completely different direction: "Because you are only focusing on your work and have not done a good job in public opinion work."

Du Ziteng seemed to be talking to himself: "Obviously it's a matter of the entire cultivation world, why is it that only our Hengxiao Sword Sect blindly pays in the end? When the sacrifice is not proportional to the reward, things will naturally go wrong. The invasion of the demon, if everyone We all know that if we fight together with all the strength of the cultivation world, will we be the only ones fighting alone, and there will be such a situation where we cannot stand alone?"

Xiao Chen was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "It's not as simple as you think." He looked at Du Ziteng meaningfully: "In the beginning, only monks who transformed themselves into gods could fight against demons on the island of heaven and man, and you I've also heard that although the cultivators of Transforming God are rare, there are other sects... In the final analysis, it is still that the way is different and the ancestors of my Hengxiao Sword Sect have the heart of the world and are willing to give up the way for the common people, but There are people who would rather sacrifice the world for their own future, such conflicts cannot be controlled by anyone else in the entire cultivation world."

Du Ziteng calmed down, and carefully chewed the meaning of Xiao Chen's words. The words had already secretly pointed out the cultivators who were like Daxue Palace and Biyue City. Their ideas were completely different from Hengxiao Sword Sect. Obviously, Hengxiao Sword Sect did not It's not that they haven't been invited, but because Xiao Chen didn't appreciate the benefits mentioned, the other party didn't accept the invitation.

But even so, Du Ziteng also firmly believes that public opinion has its own power: "Even if, as you said, the great energy of the monk who transforms the gods will never be influenced by the public opinion in the cultivation world, but one thing, if more people know about it, it would have There will be huge power, such as this time when Biyue City and Daxue Palace tried to lead our Sword Sect disciples into their respective sects, if they were not afraid of the people in the world, they could use all means to tie us up Let’s go, but they didn’t do it, and the automatic retreat already shows that they are afraid of public opinion enough!”

However, Xiao Chen shook his head and laughed: "You," he thought that Du Ziteng really understood everything and set up this situation, but it turned out that he was also suspected of hitting by mistake. Seeing Du Ziteng's suspicious eyes, Xiao Chen said indifferently: "Now I With the Hengxiao Sword Sect's appearance like this, it is obvious that they have no energy left to govern the entire Righteous Path, and the vacant position of leader of the Righteous Path... Biyue City and Daxue Palace will have a winner, and under such circumstances, your The so-called "public opinion" will be taken seriously by them. After all, the leader of the righteous way still has to obey. Otherwise, do you think that such a sect...even if the world knows that they rob and rob? Who will stand up and uphold justice?"

...It turned out that only when the second faction wanted to win the top spot and needed support did they value public opinion so much...

But Du Ziteng's expression suddenly became resolute: "If a sect's despicable deeds are made public, even if they won't come out to uphold justice for a while, if there is more help than others, there will be retribution one day! We Since the Hengxiao Sword Sect has done such a great job of protecting the common people, why not let everyone in the cultivation world know and feel grateful?! Why do you protect the common people without asking for anything in return? Bah, we are a sect, not a charity! If not For the sake of profit, nothing will last long!"

However, Xiao Chen said: "I don't think that sects should silently serve the people of the world without seeking anything in return. It's just that before the power to truly give up the power of the people's lives, this so-called gratitude is too meager, nothing can be decided, and nothing can be affected. Left and right, but in vain, even if my Hengxiao Sword Sect has the gratitude of all the monks in the world? In the war on the island of heaven and man, it is impossible for them to participate, and there is no benefit in vain gratitude."

However, Du Ziteng thought clearly: "Even if this kind of superficial gratitude can't affect anything for a while, so what? At least, this kind of dominant public opinion will firmly establish right and wrong in the minds of all monks. Otherwise, after a long time, if the entire cultivation world thinks that robbing and plundering is justified, and that it is a foolish thing to set up a life for the common people, and if things go on like this... Is such a cultivation world worthy of my ancestors of the Hengxiao Sword Sect sacrificing themselves to protect it? "

Du Ziteng's words resonated heavily in Xiao Chen's heart. For a long time, there has been an increasingly bad tendency in the cultivation world: emphasizing strength over right and wrong, or only discussing the level of cultivation, regardless of whether black or white is right or wrong.If things go on like this... what an ugly appearance the entire cultivation world will turn into!

Like Daxue Palace, Biyue City, etc., how can it be taken for granted in a cultivation world where everyone can clearly distinguish between good and evil?

Even Xiao Chen, who firmly believes that strength and interests determine everything, has to admit at this moment that in the dark, it turns out that everything can be attributed to the power of enlightenment and the power of people's hearts.

Xiao Chen looked at Du Ziteng with complicated eyes. He didn't expect that the gully pattern in Du Ziteng's chest actually focused on the merits of enlightenment for all ages, not just sticking to the development of one school and one school. It can be seen from his lofty mind.

But Du Ziteng didn't finish his words: "What's more, I always believe that the human heart has its own power. Even if your cultivation base is earth-shattering, in front of this kind of power, it is nothing more than a leaf in the vast sky. The power of belonging has not seen any results in a day or two, but I believe that the power of a drop of water will eventually turn into a stormy wave and overturn everything!"

As if in response to Du Ziteng's loud words, the sound of flying swords piercing the sky was heard again from a distance.

As for the fellow disciples who were nervous again, Xiao Chen already knew who the other party was, and he even vaguely guessed the purpose of the other party's visit, so he murmured at this moment: "I'm afraid this is the power of the human heart you mentioned... How can I help you?"

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen's long-lost and tense heart really relaxed for a moment. It turns out that there are people in the cultivation world that he devotes all his efforts to protect and protect, and there are people who are sincerely grateful and willing to reciprocate of.
