break the way [comprehension]

Du Ziteng was unaware of Xiao Chen's anomaly. He was only concerned about the cultivation of the disciples of the Hengxiao Sword Sect, but when he held the "Zhu Yuan" that Xiao Chen stuffed, he seemed to have an inexplicable sense of intimacy Spreading throughout the body, this kindness... is like the feeling when holding a small wooden stick.

This is not to say that they feel the same to Du Ziteng, but that the way Du Ziteng feels them is exactly the same.Du Ziteng finally understood why he felt weird, the little wooden stick was his natal magic weapon, and it was only natural for him to feel the liking of the little wooden stick, but the Chasing Yuan in his hand was Xiao Chen's natal magic weapon, why could he do the same? Perceive it clearly?

When holding the small wooden stick, Du Ziteng could clearly know the guy's peeing nature: gluttonous, lazy, rascal...

As for the sword in his hand, the moment he held it, Du Ziteng knew it clearly: pride.

This flying sword only looks golden and soft, graceful and elegant, but inside it is bright and majestic and unyielding. Du Ziteng can almost see at a glance what a proud flying sword he is holding. He couldn't help but look up With a glance at Xiao Chen, the more clearly he perceives this flying sword, the more clearly he understands what kind of master it has.

Thinking about his gaffe just now, Du Ziteng rarely felt a little ashamed. Although he was a disciple of the Hengxiao Sword Sect and even broke through two rounds of immortality, he still knew too little about the pride of sword cultivators.

It is also the pride of a sword cultivator to focus on cultivating the sword and not relying on external objects.

He really didn't want to understand just now, and then Du Ziteng understood again, even though the sword cultivators all had the feeling that "external things are in vain", but the conditions that can be created must be created, what he said just now came from the bottom of his heart, Even if they don't have Gengjin Qi, can other things help them break through the bottleneck better?

Du Ziteng held his hand to chase the abyss, but secretly made up his mind that it was one thing for Xiao Chen and other sword cultivators not to care about the help of foreign objects, but it was another matter whether he, Du Ziteng, could provide them.

"Zhu Yuan" in his palm seemed to feel his sudden enlightenment, and there was a burst of joy, which made Du Ziteng couldn't help but smile.

Immediately, he became suspicious again. If he felt that Zhuyuan was only one-way, which was different from the natal magic weapon, but the emotion that Zhuyuan fed back just now was exactly the same as when the little wooden stick fed back emotions. Such a two-way emotion Communication is clearly the communication between the master and the natal artifact, yes, it is communication.It is a communication between people who come and go, and communicate with each other on an equal footing.

Du Ziteng only lowered his head and looked at Zhu Yuan carefully, it was still the shape he had carefully traced with pen and ink, it hadn't changed at all, it was as familiar as before, and now it added that kind of intimacy.For some reason, he suddenly remembered that when they were hunted down by blood slaves that day, when Xiao Chen moved his sword, he felt severe pain in his dantian, and it turned out that in that small village, they lived in the Zhang family, and he didn't know Xiao Chen's identity, All kinds of strange things happened when Xiao Chen visited his dantian. Not long ago, under the Yunheng Peak, Xiao Chen's whole body was icy cold. When he touched it, he felt extremely cold, even the small wooden stick froze...

Everyone told him that the natal magic weapon and its master depended on each other to share weal and woe, so these strange things... Now, holding Xiao Chen's fairy sword, he can even feel the illusion of being connected by heart and blood. Why?

Du Ziteng couldn't help but look at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen understood all the knowledge in the cultivation world far better than him. Du Ziteng had hoped that Xiao Chen could take the initiative to solve the confusion, but he saw Xiao Chen's eyes wandering all over the ground, and he didn't notice himself at all. confused.

Du Ziteng rolled his eyes. He knows the contents of his storage bag better than anyone else. Although he is determined to provide help from outsiders, there are still many mysteries in the "Dawn" secret realm. How to use all of them to do it, It will take time for Du Ziteng to understand, does Xiao Chen really expect him to use these messy things in the storage bag to solve it?

Since Xiao Chen can't count on solving the confusion...Du Ziteng called out the little wooden stick without hesitation, and at this moment, the little wooden stick buzzed and vibrated at the same time as Zhu Yuan, as if resonating, and as if greeting, a wave of A slight warm current seemed to flow through Du Ziteng as a bridge between the small wooden stick and Zhuyuan. At this moment, Du Ziteng seemed to have seen a scene that made him feel dazed and familiar:

It’s just that at the end of the vast and boundless continent, one is black and silent, and the other is full of vitality. Two rivers cross and surge. On the big tree, there is only one leaf, and at some point above the head, there is an additional round of scorching sun, so blazing and dazzling, but if you pay attention carefully, you can see the endless lines that change for no reason.

After a long time, all of this disappeared, and Du Ziteng stayed where he was, holding Zhuyuan in his left hand and a small wooden stick in his right. He looked at a loss, completely unaware of what all that meant just now.

When everything happened just now, Xiao Chen stood there as if he had sensed something, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses at the same time as Du Ziteng.

Seeing Xiao Chen's state, Du Ziteng can finally be sure that all of this must have something to do with him!

Du Ziteng couldn't bear it anymore, he jumped in front of Xiao Chen and hurriedly asked: "What the hell was that just now? Why do I keep seeing it? Or... what did you do? Why can I still perceive it? Your flying sword? What do you mean?"

Seeing that Du Ziteng would continue to ask so many troublesome questions, Xiao Chen was straightforward: "At the Blood Slaughter Gate, your natal magic weapon swallowed my sword spirit."

Du Ziteng: (⊙o⊙)?

Undoubtedly, Du Xiaoye's first reaction was to be confused.

After the blankness in his mind passed, Du Ziteng's second reaction was that Xiao Chen told a cold joke.

No matter how ignorant Xiaobai is, he has heard of sword spirits before, and sword spirits are extremely powerful in the state of swordsmanship. If you need to deliberately drive it, it will understand what you mean. This even means that you are no longer alone in this long sword journey, but have a companion who fights side by side and goes forward together. It is the way it grows, and its significance is so great!

Du Ziteng squeezed the foodie stick tightly in his hand, and told himself desperately that he was a bit greedy with this broken stick, but how could he be able to eat such a crazy-sounding sword spirit!

However, Xiao Chen's expression was as calm as ever, and he didn't smile like Du Ziteng thought and said "I'm just joking, how could it be possible" or something like that.Based on Du Ziteng's usual understanding of Xiao Chen, speaking with this attitude...it is almost certain that he will never lie...Moreover, after the bloody murder of the door, the little wooden stick was silent for quite a while...Afterwards, he directly entered the stage , it seems to have a little more spirituality...

Thinking of this, Du Ziteng... Du Ziteng collapsed.

He raised his right hand, looked at the small wooden stick emitting a faint purple light, and then looked at his left hand. For some reason, he didn't feel it before, but now he felt a little bleak and pitiful. Du Ziteng gritted his teeth and said viciously to the little wooden stick: "Give, me, spit, come out, come on!"

The little wooden stick stood upright, without any reaction at all, no matter how Du Ziteng drove it, he would pretend to be dead if he said it, and would never twist it.

In desperation, Xiaoye Du only had one question in his mind: how much spirit stone is a sword spirit worth?

At this moment, he once again had the urge to slam his right hand into the ground, and the pestle was broken, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

How do you pay for this?How to pay?How to pay? !

That is the natal sword spirit of a sword cultivator!

Du Ziteng felt very tired.

This feeling is like the irreversible life-long damage caused to other people's children by the fight outside of one's own bear children, and as a parent, I only learned the truth after a long time, and I don't know how to deal with it at all. Do you want to beat your own bear child into the same injury?

No matter how much you hate iron but not steel...you can't do it OTZ

Looking at Xiao Chen again, Du Ziteng felt a little guilty, thinking of Xiao Chen's torture in disguise in the Blood Slaughter Sect... If it weren't for this piece of firewood, Xiao Chen would probably have killed the Quartet with his usual heroic posture Falling from the sky, this is in line with the glorious image of the true chief of the Hengxiao Sword Sect... After that, he was embarrassed countless times, and he even secretly complained that Xiao Chen is an embroidered pillow, which is not very useful... For a long time... this oolong All made by myself...

If you want to calculate the loss, there are many direct cultivation base losses, indirect economic losses, indirect spiritual losses, indirect reputation losses... I guess I can't pay for everything in my storage bag all over the floor...

What?You said to pay for this piece of broken firewood, this kind of insane foodie, if you pay for it to others, they will be willing to accept it...

Du Ziteng had no choice but to ask with a guilty conscience: "Well, can you cultivate a sword spirit again?" He carefully looked at Xiao Chen's face and said: "If possible, what other spiritual objects do you need? I will definitely find it for you Come……"

In this case... I can only try my best to treat other people's children, and let them recover as much as possible (┳_┳)... I just don't know if it is possible to recover, and whether others will accept it...

For some reason, seeing Du Ziteng who was so limp as if he had made a big mistake, Xiao Chen had a strange expression on his face, but there was a hidden smile in his eyes: "I don't know either."

Du Ziteng was completely paralyzed. Xiao Chen had broken the golden core once before, and now his injuries have not fully recovered. If he wants to regenerate a sword spirit... I'm afraid it really depends on whether the gods reward him or not.

Things have developed to such an extent that Du Ziteng has completely ignored the meaning of those series of weird things. Young Master Du never liked to owe anyone in his life... In the end, he owed Xiao Chen several lives and he still hasn't figured it out. , owed another sword spirit...

In the end, Du Ziteng could only say in frustration: "Okay... If you need anything else to practice, just tell me..."

Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows suspiciously: "Really?"

Du Ziteng raised his head and raised his chest and said, "Of course! Although it was not my intention...but it is a fact that my natal magic weapon ate the sword spirit. If I can make up for it, I will naturally do my best to make up for it!"

Xiao Chen lowered his head, stared at those sincere and open bright eyes, but there was a smile on his lips: "It's a deal."

While Du Ziteng nodded, for some reason, with his keen spiritual sense, he always felt as if he had jumped into some kind of big pit unknowingly... Damn, a gentleman can't follow a word. Trying his best to make up for it, Du Ziteng tried his best to persuade himself to suppress the little anxiety in his heart.

And the happy smile on Xiao Chen's lips never faded, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

The illusion that the two of them saw before seemed to be short but actually long. During this conversation, apart from those who were still advanced and seriously injured, there were actually people who came out of the first short retreat one after another.

Seeing this, Du Ziteng naturally wanted to go forward and ask a question or two.

In this secret realm, there are not many large unexplored lands with stable space. After all, the cultivation world has been mining fine crystal dust and light mines in this dawn secret realm for thousands of years. It's a rare place to open.

Therefore, I am afraid that for a long period of time, before they have the strength to thoroughly explore the entire secret realm, they must stay here. The large formation they are using now is very important. How does it feel to practice internally, and is there any room for improvement.

After asking around, it’s okay. It’s just monks, especially those casual cultivators. The exercises and formulas are hard-won. After all, the requirements for secrecy are still relatively high. I’m afraid I’m still not used to being in front of such a large group of people. Practice, this is also the reason why so many people came out of the retreat this time, there is always a faint sense of uneasiness at work.

Du Ziteng understood it, he saw a peak not far away, after a little thought, he suggested to Xiao Chen that it is better to open the mountain as a cave, and embedding the formation in the cave may be more useful than on flat ground.

All casual cultivators couldn't agree more with this move. For these cultivators, there is no shortage of spiritual energy in the secret realm, and the matter of opening a mountain is just a matter of lifting a finger, so Xiao Chen naturally agrees.

These casual cultivators were extremely eager for this, and Du Ziteng naturally did not delay. After quickly delineating the basic area according to the formation, it seemed that He Shiming, Zhang Laosi and others were actively helping to arrange the adjustment, and even the planning of these caves. It was done in an orderly manner, seeing how active they were, Du Ziteng simply let them do the work, and he was happy to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

When he stepped back to check the formation, he ran into Tie Wanli who had just left the customs.

This is the first time he has encountered Tie Wanli at such a close distance after Yun Hengfeng's change. There are several sword cultivators who have just left the customs around him. It is probably because he has already noticed that the spiritual energy is different and his practice is not going well. There were many more sword repairmen in Guan than Du Ziteng imagined, they were not very interested, and the conversation was carried on in a low voice, but Tie Wanli did not say a word from the beginning to the end, just stood quietly in the corner.

Thinking of the bold and forthright man on Yunheng Peak that day, Tie Wanli in front of him was too silent, as if he had just come out of retreat because of a bottleneck that he couldn't break through. Tired, for a moment, even Du Ziteng didn't know how to greet him.

Tie Wanli was startled when he saw Du Ziteng, and finally nodded lightly, as a greeting to his old friend, then turned around and returned to the formation, obviously intending to retreat again.

Behind him, Du Ziteng finally said firmly: "Senior Brother Tie, even if there is no Gengjin Qi in the secret realm, I will definitely find a way for everyone to break through the bottleneck!"

These words attracted a lot of attention from the surrounding sword cultivators.

Tie Wanli paused, but turned around and smiled wryly: "Thank you, Junior Brother Du, for your kindness, but," there was an indescribable determination in his expression: "Even if we don't have the Qi of Gengjin, we are still Yun Hengfeng's sword cultivator , if you are trapped by foreign objects, you are not qualified to practice swords. I appreciate your kindness. Now that I have just arrived in the secret realm, Junior Brother Du must have complicated affairs, so there is no need to be distracted by such insignificant things..."

Du Ziteng frowned and was about to refute that this was not an "insignificant matter", but a top priority.

But Tie Wanli showed a smile, warming people's hearts like the first snowfall: "Junior Brother Du, you have to believe that this kind of bottleneck will not be able to trap the sword cultivators of my Hengxiao Sword Sect!"

Du Ziteng was startled, but he heard Xiao Chen's voice beside him saying: "That's right!"

Seeing Xiao Chen, many sword cultivators including Tie Wanli stood up solemnly and saluted: "I have met the master!"

Du Ziteng has seen this kind of respect many times, but he still feels a little uncomfortable. It seems that he is not used to the fact that the person around him has already started to take charge of the sect. He suddenly noticed the change in the attitude of the crowd. : Because from the beginning to the end, no matter whether he is in charge of the sect or not, Xiao Chen treats him the same, and he also treats Xiao Chen the same, without much respect, but the way other people get along with Xiao Chen has completely changed. But Xiao Chen never said anything.

When Du Ziteng was distracted, Xiao Chen had already said half of what he said: "...it is only a matter of time before we can develop the mind to not be trapped by external objects..."

After Xiao Chen had finished speaking, Kong Yun and the Jindan Sword Cultivator shared some of their own experiences in retreat, and this accidental meeting turned into a meeting of sword Cultivators discussing Dao. Sword practice is completely different from talisman. If sword practice is more focused, then talisman cultivation is probably more focused on enlightenment. It is obviously completely different from his own way, but Du Ziteng listened quietly, but he felt an indescribable peace in his heart. Hengfeng and many fellow sects were gone, but the remaining fellow sects became closer and united because of this.

If it were in the past, it would be hard to imagine that everyone would sit and discuss Taoism in one place, regardless of the golden elixir, foundation building, and qi refining.

The opening of the mountain over there is progressing rapidly. Before the end of this long discussion, thousands of caves have been dug. It is human nature, and Du Ziteng agreed. Taking advantage of the fact that there are not many people in retreat, Du Ziteng also moved the main formation of the big formation to the past, and only set up some separate formations for those who are retreating.

When Du Ziteng came back, the discussion had just ended, and many of his fellow sword cultivators had gained a lot, some sat there frowning and pondering hard, some hurriedly got up and went to the big formation to practice in retreat, and some chased after him. Brother continued to ask...

Du Ziteng hurriedly chased after the one who was about to go back to the big formation, Yang Sheng explained clearly the location of the new formation, and seeing them all, he didn't know if they understood. Anyway, Du Ziteng stepped on the flying sword and disappeared quickly, Du Ziteng: ...

Well, anyway, even if you go to the wrong place, if you look back and see that there is no big formation over there, and the two places are not far apart, you should be able to touch it by yourself.Du Ziteng sighed, and still sent a message to He Shiming, asking him to arrange a few disciples to stay at the old site, and let him know if he saw one or two Jianxiu who went back in a daze.

After doing all this, Du Ziteng raised his legs and prepared to continue to stare at the operation of the formation. Judging by the appearance, there might be a few of the same sect who need spiritual energy to break through. This opportunity, which came so hard, must not fall into his hands .

Xiao Chen came over and handed him back his storage bag, Du Ziteng took it, but heard Xiao Chen say: "I took one of the things..."

Du Ziteng suddenly raised his head: "I'm sorry! You are not! I just promised you to provide you with training things, and you can't wait to withhold them!" Then, Du Xiaoye looked sad: "You are now my Hengxiao Sword Sect! It’s the master, be reserved! Be reserved!!!”

Xiao Chen: ...

Du Ziteng muttered for a long time before he remembered and asked, "By the way, what did you detain?"

While thinking about it just now, Young Master Du wittily checked the storage bag carefully!Are all the valuable things that the old man cares about are still there!Otherwise, Xiao Chen could still stand here intact?

However, Xiao Chen walked towards the new location of the formation: "You will know later."

Du Ziteng was a little curious, could there be something in his own storage bag that Xiao Chen could appreciate but he didn't know?

When he got to the place next to the array, Xiao Chen asked: "Can you control all the auras in the sword cultivator's residence?"

Du Ziteng nodded: "Of course, these caves are allocated according to people, and they are basically divided into pieces. The residences of sword cultivators are basically on the uppermost side of this mountain. There is absolutely no problem in manipulating spiritual energy."

"Your array is located in the innermost cave, and the aura seems to be isolated from other caves?"

Du Ziteng nodded. That's natural. As the leader of the formation, he also needs to cultivate, so he also needs to protect his own safety. Of course, the cave where the formation is located is relatively isolated, and it should even be said that it is the place with the highest level of security.

Xiao Chen stopped talking, but took out a storage bag, this bag... Du Ziteng looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw it, or used it.

Then Xiao Chen poured the bag with the mouth down, countless fine debris poured out.

Du Ziteng suddenly realized: "Isn't this the day I was under Yunheng Peak..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Chen actually pulled out the flying sword. Under the circulation of spiritual energy, the mighty sword energy of birth and death enveloped the entire space, and the debris made a clear rustling sound. In Du Ziteng's stunned expression, it was It gradually condensed into a blurred face that could not be identified, but was clearly a sword cultivator.

Xiao Chen asked in a deep voice: "I am Xiao Chen, the new head of the Hengxiao Sword Sect, Your Excellency...?"

The voice that seemed to be rubbing against fine gravel replied in a deep and forceful voice: "Tomb Keeper."

When he really heard the answer he expected, Xiao Chen felt very complicated. That day, Master Bixiao protected Yun Hengfeng at the final moment, and finally made the elder holding the sword save them...

And the tomb guard in front of him... Xiao Chen's heart turned a thousand times, and after a long while, he whispered: "...Hua Yi?"

Du Ziteng on one side was so shocked that he didn't know what to say. The scene in front of him was clearly the appearance of the guard who carried countless flying sword fragments of heroic souls in the Sword Tomb...

After Xiao Chen asked the question for a long time, the blurred face was silent all the time, and finally said: "There are only the tomb guards here."

These seven characters are obviously brief, but they are sonorous and resolute. For a moment, countless sword intents are flying in this small space, which cannot be compared with the sword questioning of the Hengxiao Sword Sect. There is also the unyielding righteousness, the gentle compassion and the murderous intent...

But it just so happens that there will never be the passionate and icy ice-fire sword intent that day.

Only by abandoning one's own way can one carry the sword soul of Hengxiao.

The desolation in it made Du Ziteng's eyes sour, and he touched the remaining heroic souls and sword energy in the sword mound in his blurred vision. It turned out that Yun Hengfeng had never left them.
