Chang Dizhihua

Chang Di Luo

The woman revealed her identity with a single word, which caused exclamations from all around.Hatred, fear, hatred, all kinds of emotions, like invisible but qualitative sharp knives, all gathered towards her.But Taiqing had a calm expression, and saluted from a distance:

"It turns out that the master of the demon world came in person, sorry."

Chanyou smiled and nodded, and calmly responded: "The master is very polite."

"Your Excellency used a trick to lure the enemy that day, and easily invaded our Qionghua faction. It really is a good strategy."

"It's a failure, it's nothing to worry about. On the contrary, the head of the sect has worked so hard for many years to forge such a pair of divine swords, which is really admirable."

"Don't dare. But I don't know something, so I want to ask for advice."

"Why be polite? Excuse me."

Taiqing fixedly looked at her, with a hint of sarcasm gradually appearing in his expression: "Is it because the demon lord's visit this time is because you have no one available in the Illusory World?"

Hearing this, Chanyou's eyes flashed and disappeared, and then she turned her bright eyes on the Juanyun platform, and lightly parted her lips: "Everyone, each other. Now this Qionghua faction is nothing more than the end of its strength." .”

"Even if my party fights to the last person, I will swear to destroy your devil's lair!"

"The master's words are straightforward, so good, there is no need to gossip, let's make a move!"

Although the two of them were tit for tat at first, after all they still answered each other politely, but in the end, they were exhausted.When Chanyou uttered the word "make a move", Taiqing had already pulled out the long sword at his waist, exerted force with his feet, swept the sky, and went straight to the cliff of Xuefeng where she was standing.

The Qionghua disciples around him didn't have time to stop them, only to hear the master say a word from mid-air: "Keep Juanyuntai and the double swords!"

Chan You stepped up gracefully, and said mockingly: "Apart from the two swords, what do you have left? If you go against the sky, you will surely die yourself in the future!"

Taiqing shouted: "Evil people dare to mention destiny! Don't talk nonsense!" The sword in his hand was like a shooting star, coming straight towards her.

Chanyou raised her arms, and her clothes fluttered in the air, a pair of bright steel thorns suddenly rolled up from her arms, holding the sword firmly.But hearing the continuous sound of gold and iron in the air, all the disciples hurriedly raised their heads, but they could only see a purple shadow fighting with a white shirt, they couldn't even distinguish the sword moves, those with weaker skills could only watch for a moment, He became slightly dizzy.

Just as he was in a daze, he heard someone yelling not far away: "The monster is coming again! Everyone, be careful—" Just halfway through the yelling, it turned into a terrified scream.The sound was still unfinished, and under the beast head at the entrance of the Illusory Darkness Realm, a large number of monsters had already pressed in. Although the number was far less than before, it was still very impressive.

All the disciples temporarily put aside the fierce fight between the master and the master of the demon world, and drew their swords to meet the enemy.During the several battles in the past few days, the two sides have already forged a deep blood feud that cannot be dismantled. Once they fought, it was a hand-to-hand combat.

Yun Tianqing handed out a move, seeing that the bright sword tip was about to pierce the monster's throat, for some reason, his heart felt cold, and he quickly turned the sword around, brushing past it from the side, and that The monster saw the gap, opened its mouth, and bit his arm hard.The sharp fangs went deep into the muscle, and he didn't feel any pain, but he heard the sound of piercing through the air, and a sword quickly pierced down, instantly nailing the monster to the ground.

Looking up, facing Shang Suyao's beautiful but cold eyes, he smiled shyly: "Thank you, Senior Sister, for your help..."

Suyao didn't care, and hurriedly said: "Junior Brother Yun, be careful!" Then she drew her sword and turned around, rushing into the killing formation.

Looking at her back, Yun Tianqing felt at a loss in his heart.The sound of killing and cutting was loud, and countless figures were running around, looking up, the battle between my benefactor and the master of the demon world was in full swing, and it was unknown when the scuffle would end.This time the fight is stopped, do you want to continue the fight next time?When the dust settles, how many people will die, how many monsters, and how many familiar faces will return to the ashes, never to be seen again?

He was standing here in a daze, but in the night on the other side, flames and frost were already spewing out and cracking the sky. A pair of figures jumped down from the lotus platform and stood in front of everyone. Had to step back into the darkness.

At the same time, Dan Wen shouted loudly: "Xuan Xiao, Su Yu, don't move rashly!" The voice was old and anxious, and it was clearly Elder Zong Lian.

Su Yu stood still, but Xuan Xiao turned his head sideways in response, and glanced at the crowd behind him indifferently with a pair of eyes dyed red by Xi and Yang Yan.At that moment, although the distance was only a few feet away, Yun Tianqing felt that the distance between him and them seemed to be separated by the ends of the earth.

Before he had time to think about it, there was already a clear whistle in his ears.Xi He came out, Wang Shu appeared, the monster at the front couldn't hide, and was burnt into a wisp of purple smoke without even spilling much blood.In the past few days, a pair of divine swords has gathered the power of countless amethyst stones, and their spiritual power has increased greatly. In addition, Xuan Xiao and Su Yu have practiced swordsmanship together for several years, and they cooperate like clouds and flowing water. The move fell through.

The situation of the battle was reversed in an instant, the blue light and the red light swayed and danced, and the two hosts seemed to be in a no-man's land. After a while, they led all Qionghua's disciples and killed them until they reached the Hongqiao where the human and monster worlds were connected.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Zong Lian stopped drinking again and again: "Xuanxiao Suyu, hurry back to the lotus platform!" Then he turned to the elders and said anxiously: "Everyone, quickly line up and restrain the aura of the double swords!"

Chong Guang scolded: "Zong Lian, at this moment, the demon world is retreating, and the demon master is at a loss. Such a great opportunity, but you say you want to withdraw, what is your intention!"

Zong Lian was so anxious that he didn't care to choose his tone: "Brother Chongguang, the spiritual power of the two swords was overflowing that day, and it was extremely dangerous. Could it be that you want to repeat the same mistakes!"

Chong Guang raised his eyebrows together: "That day was just an accidental change. If you are so worried, when will you choose this devil's lair! What will be the consequences? In the future——"

Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a loud noise in the air, and Qingyang shouted beside him: "Senior Brother Taiqing!" His voice was panicked and he lost his composure.

Chong Guang and Zong Lianji looked up into the air, they were also shocked, they saw Tai Qing and Chan You Chu standing in the void, their weapons were touching each other, they did not give in, they were actually fighting for spiritual power!

You must know that such a head-to-head contest depends entirely on one's own skills and cultivation, which is different from fighting with tricks, and there is no room for half-hearted tricks and mistakes. The surface looks peaceful, but the inner turmoil is the most dangerous.And the masters whose skills are between equals often have to fight until the moment when the fuel is exhausted before they can tell the difference. Even if they win in the end, it will be a tragic victory with a huge price.

As the brilliance of the intertwined weapons on both sides gradually rises, the wide sleeves of Taiqing's robes are full of true energy, and the hunting is agitated, and the snow-white beard and hair are fluttering. A beautiful face is very strange.The two of them were in a desperate posture, presumably at the beginning of the battle, they had already made up their minds, and they would not give up unless they fought to the death.

The three elders jumped up, their swords flew to Taiqing's side in an instant, and they were about to help him, but they immediately felt the strong wind pressing against them, and it was difficult to move forward even half a step. Total ashes.But everyone in the audience heard the elders shouting, knowing that the battle between the two is at a critical juncture, and they no longer care about rushing into the demon world, staring intently at the mid-air, with cold sweat oozing from the hands holding the sword Come.

At that time, the wind was fierce, and the clouds formed and disappeared on the cirrus platform, and the billowing dark clouds covered the moonlight, making the light on the two's weapons shine like stars.After a while, only heard Taiqing sternly shouted, the two of them separated abruptly, retreated about Zhang Xu, waited until they fell back to the ground, and then stabilized their bodies.

Under the extinguished purple light, I saw Chanyou bending over to caress her chest, panting uncontrollably, and Taiqing over there was standing straight, but her face was ashen, and a line of blood dripped slowly along the corner of her lips.

It is clear who wins and who loses.

Everyone in Qionghua was shocked, their faces were pitiful, and they couldn't help shouting: "Master!" "Brother Taiqing, are you in serious trouble?" At the same time, she turned her head and stared angrily at Chan You, her canthus tearing apart—if her gaze could also be transformed into form, she would have been burned to ashes by now.

And Chanyou only regarded the people below the stage as dead objects, and slowly stood up straight, as if nothing had happened, and returned to the previous high-spirited and glamorous posture.She tilted her head lightly, squinting at the undulating Cangshan and sea of ​​clouds under her feet, her mood was very leisurely, but there seemed to be deep weariness in her eyes.

Taiqing leaned on his sword and stared at her, opened his mouth, and a pool of blood spewed out angrily, which caused another exclamation from around him, but he didn't care, he just said grimly: "What are you doing around me! This demon's power is greatly depleted , hurry up and take this opportunity to take her down!"

All the disciples just woke up like a dream, gritted their teeth with hatred, drew their swords and rushed forward, but saw Chanyou's posture, after a few ups and downs, she had already boarded the Zihong Bridge, and her clear laughter echoed in the night sky: "Old man, If you want to kill me, you can cultivate for another 500 years!" Turning around lightly, she wanted to go back, but just as soon as she took a step, two sword lights, one green and one red, suddenly crossed her face, blocking her way.

When she saw this pair of spirit swords, Chanyou's face changed slightly, she gritted her teeth and said, "Xi He, Wang Shu, it's very good!" Just a few words, full of resentment that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.Thinking about the battle of the Illusory Qionghua, it started with the two swords flying up, and then bound the demon world with a net, and confronted twice. Under these two swords, I don't know how much demon blood they drank. It is absolutely impossible to hate this sword.

But Xuan Xiao Suyu faced such sharp resentment, but he didn't hear it, and he swung his sword without saying a word.Lie Yang and Ice came at the same time, Chan You did not dare to fight recklessly, when she dodged to dodge, her beautiful eyes swept across the faces of the two of them, her expression was filled with surprise and pity, she shook her head in a low voice Said: "Ordinary people, how can you control the divine weapon? It's nothing more than a demon—"

She changed her mood several times, but no one knew about it, before she could finish her sigh, she was drowned in the chaotic footsteps of the disciples behind her and the clear cry of the long sword.Under attack from both front and back, she remained calm and composed, moving her body like lightning, not confronting anyone head-on, dozens of swords were handed over, but it was difficult to touch even a piece of her clothes.

The Qionghua people looked at it in amazement, but they heard her chanting: "Dream, shadow, mist and flowers are all empty, the heart is moving, and all things have life!"

When the last word was read, the figure was like a shadow in a dream, a flower in the mist, and disappeared without a trace in an instant, leaving only a wisp of purple mist around it, and it disappeared after a while.

The master of the demon world suddenly came and left, even the head of the dignified faction was no match for him, he almost regarded the Qionghua faction as his own backyard.For a moment, no one dared to speak or move a step. The huge mountain was as silent as a tomb.A gust of bitter mountain wind blew past, and everyone felt the coolness behind their backs, and their bodies were covered in cold sweat.

After a while, everyone in Qionghua took extremely sour steps and withdrew from Hongqiao one after another.

However, there was a wave of Fang Ping, and another wave was born. Fang Yi stepped on the solid ground, but unexpectedly, there was a tremor under his feet, and the sound of thunder was faintly mixed in the air.When I looked back, I saw that in the chaotic clouds in the half-day, the spiritual energy surged chaotically, the huge purple animal head twisted for a while, and even the lotus platform suspended in the air shook violently.

Everyone suspected that the demon had gone and returned, but at this moment, how could they have the strength to resist?They couldn't help but all changed their colors miserably, and murmured: "It's the sky that wants to kill me Qionghua..."

In a moment of panic, one person rushed out first, and shouted: "Don't panic! This is the backlash of the spiritual power of the double swords, not the return of the demon world!" With a dignified look and beard and hair, it was Elder Zonglian.

But as soon as these words came out, all the disciples thought of the nightmarish meteor shower at the beginning of their ascension, and their hearts became more panicked. They looked up and saw the lights and shadows at the end of the Hongqiao, and they really walked slowly. The figure is divided into two spiritual swords, Zhixi and Wangshu, with bright flames flying into the air, barefoot, and fluttering clothes. The appearance is like a god and demon coming to the world. It is not Xuanxiao and Suyu, but who is it?

At that moment, all the disciples were in danger, and they knew that they had to avoid it as soon as possible. However, under the shroud of the pure and holy power that could destroy the world, they seemed to be taken away from their souls, even moving a finger No, in a confused heart, the same thought involuntarily came up: What is the difference between such a terrifying power and when the demon army is overwhelming?

As Xuan Xiao and Su Yu gradually approached, the spiritual currents in the surrounding area became more frenzied, and the strong wind blew past, like a knife cutting.Zong Lian sighed: "If righteousness can't be used by others, why is it called righteousness? If evil doesn't hurt people, what kind of evil is it!" After finishing speaking, he advanced instead of retreating, and strode forward to meet the two of them.

Qingyang stopped behind him in shock: "Senior Brother Zonglian! Absolutely not!"

Zong Lian suddenly turned his head: "What are you waiting for? Could it be that you want to see Pai Huairen die!"

A loud shout, like thunder in the clear sky, rolled across the hearts of Qingyang and Chongguang. The two looked at each other, their minds made up, and flew behind Zonglian, lined up one word at a time, taking advantage of the spiritual power of Xihe and Wangshu to fight back At the beginning, when the situation was not yet in place, the three elders gathered their palms together and slapped Xuan Xiao heavily on the chest!

With the extremely tyrannical force pouring into the body, Xuan Xiao only felt that the aura in the veins was completely reversed for a moment, and it seemed that even the spiritual consciousness was also scattered, and he didn't know where he was. His body swayed a few times, and he withdrew his sword I fell to the ground.

A catastrophe finally disappears before it arises.

Zong Lian was the first to bear the brunt of the pain, taking off seven or eight points of Xi He's strength. At this time, he was already sweating and sluggish. Seeing Xuan Xiao finally fell to the ground, and the restless Xi He Yang Yan calmed down again, he breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to his side. The two said: "It's done..."

Chong Guang and Qing Yang looked ashamed, they helped Zong Lian up, but they were speechless.

On the other side, Wang Shujian, who had lost Xi and his spiritual power, also gradually calmed down.In Suyu's heart, the mind that was firmly controlled by Wangshu's breath was ethereal for a moment.She staggered, then took a step back, looked up, and saw several mountain peaks, all of which were dark red in color, spreading the surrounding void, full of purple mist and blood smoke that was too thick to dissolve.

During this period of time, she and Xuan Xiao... what have they done!How much blood did the sword in his hand drink, and how many creatures were turned into dead souls under the sword?

Did people use the sword now, or did the sword control people?

The clearness in my mind disappeared in a flash, and the next moment, the cold air of Wangshu flooded in overwhelmingly.

Yun Tianqing stood in a corner of the crowd, and saw Suyu standing a few meters away from him, her eyes dyed jade-colored by the cold, for a moment, regained the warmth of the past, then she closed her eyes, looked back It fell down suddenly, and the bright starlight was extinguished in a blink of an eye.

***

In the middle of the night, the sky above the Taiyi Palace was surrounded by gloomy clouds and mist.

Yun Tianqing came from outside the door, and all he saw along the way was rubble, dead grass and dead trees, and the pool water that used to be clear to the bottom was also glowing with a dull red light under the night. How much blood.

Back then, on the first day of entry, the golden sky, the green trees and flowers, seemed to be still in front of my eyes, but it was far away like a phantom void.

In the room, the head of Taiqing was lying on his back on the couch, his complexion was sallow, his eyes were half closed, his cheeks were deeply sunken, and he could hardly hear the sound of breathing.If the head of the sect who has been in charge of Qionghua for many years is normal, he would sit cross-legged upright even when sitting and resting, how could he appear so weak and bedridden?

For many years, Yun Tianqing had been accustomed to seeing his master Zhuo Li's sea of ​​clouds and immortal demeanor, and for a moment, he felt that the person in front of him suddenly became strange.

It was only today that he vaguely understood that his mentor, like so many old people in the world, no matter how skilled and how deep his cultivation was, he would still be unable to escape sickness and troubles, desires and attachments.

Yun Tianqing was like a clay sculpture, hidden in the dark night outside, staring at the dim candle flame that was still extinguished indoors from afar.And the three elders and two deacons in the hall sat quietly in front of Taiqing's couch, also not saying a word.

After an unknown amount of time, Taiqing suddenly opened his eyes slowly, and said hoarsely, "Zong Lian..."

Zong Lian hurriedly took a step forward, Fang bent down, and heard him say again:

"In my life...although I am not as successful as previous generations of sect masters, I still act openly and aboveboard, follow the teachings of my ancestors in everything, and feel that I have a clear conscience... forging the double swords, all for me to send me to fly into the immortal world, attacking the demon world, I want to Eliminating harm for the world, what is wrong with it, to... end up in such a field!"

His voice was weak at the beginning, and at the end, his voice became louder and trembling slightly, as if his heart couldn't be calmed down.

Zong Lian sighed deeply: "No matter what, after all, there are countless casualties, causing disaster."

Taiqing's complexion was dark, and then he snorted coldly: "It's all because of the brutality and tyranny of the Yaozu that... that caused my Qionghua faction to be seriously injured!"

Zong Lian looked at his good friend for many years, and shook his head: "Right and wrong, good and evil, good and evil, how can you judge by your own thoughts? Everything in the world follows the way of heaven, and each has its own destiny. It's useless for you and me After many years of cultivating Taoism, it is difficult to see one or two of them."

After the words were spoken too clearly, his face changed several times. When Zong Lian mentioned the word "Heavenly Way", he couldn't help vomiting blood in his mouth, bloodlines dripped from his eyes, and smiled miserably: "Hey, What are you talking about! Could it be that you think that Qionghua's ascension to immortality is against the way of heaven!"

This remark seems to be asking others, but also seems to be self-deprecating, after Zong Lian listened, he just lowered his eyes and was speechless.

Taiqing let out a long sigh, waved his hands, barely half-shouldered, and his voice became solemn: "You guys listen carefully. I sent Feisheng great cause, condensed the hard work of several generations, and now it is expected to be successful. Don't be hindered by this mere danger. Then I started to think about quitting, and I gave up halfway. I died--"

Speaking of this, Zhongguang couldn't help but interrupt him hastily: "Master, you fought with the demon master, but you suffered a little setback, why did you make such an ominous statement?"

Seeing that the other four people were also about to speak, Taiqing raised his hand and stopped them together: "Okay, you don't have to comfort me... After my death, the elder Zonglian with the sword will lead the No. 20 Fifth Generation Head of the Qionghua Sect job."

Zong Lian was heartbroken when he heard it, but he could only bear the pain and bowed his head: "I dare not accept the position of head of the sect!"

Taiqing only thought that he deserved it, and smiled slightly: "You don't have to shirk, you are the most suitable candidate for this whole group."

Zong Lian sighed: "It's not intentional to shirk, it's just because my skills are exhausted now, and I'm like a useless person, so it's really hard for me to take on this heavy responsibility."

All the people were shocked when they heard this statement.Taiqing tried his best to focus on his face, and watched his face carefully. After a long time, Fang said in a shy voice, "So that's the case. In order to block the power of Xihe, you actually..." At this point, he shook his head and turned into a sigh.

Qingyang's expression was gloomy, and he murmured: "...if righteousness cannot be used by others, how can it be called righteousness? How can it be called righteousness..." What Zong Lian said in his mouth was no different from what Zong Lian said on Juanyuntai.

Chong Guang frowned and asked, "Junior Brother Zong Lian, the aura of these two swords is so violent, will there be chaos in the future?"

Zong Lian thought for a moment, and Fang replied seriously: "In my opinion, with the protection of the amethyst now, as long as the two swords are not urged to kill the enemy, there will be no more chaos. It's just... such a magical weapon, it is difficult for ordinary people to control it. It's really hard to know what will happen!" At the end, when he remembered that the sword was forged by himself, his voice was very painful.

As soon as he said this, the room fell into a dead silence again.

Taiqing had said a lot earlier, it was a lot of trouble, Xuanji saw that he was depressed, and wanted to take out the purple green jade paste and offer it, but Taiqing just shook his head slightly at him, indicating that there is no need to waste this life-sustaining elixir , rested for a moment, and spoke solemnly again:

"Forget it. That being the case, the position of head will be granted to my second-generation disciple Xuan Xiao after I, Qionghua, succeed in my career. Now you all need to work together to exterminate the demons and help the two swords to ascend, so as to fulfill my sect's long-cherished wish for many years .Do you remember?"

The arrangement of Taiqing's head is indeed very thoughtful and well-intentioned.Among the several elders, Zong Lian first set up the Lingshi Formation, and later rescued the entire sect from the fire and water. His prestige is beyond the reach of others. If even he cannot take over as the head of the sect, the others will certainly not be able to convince the crowd.It would be safer to entrust a second-generation disciple who was handed down by him, and be assisted by all the elders.

Everyone knew the deep meaning of the head, and there was no objection at the moment, and they kowtowed and praised: "I will definitely live up to the expectations of the head!"

Only Suyao, although she bowed deeply to the ground, did not say a word.She knew that her qualifications were mediocre, no matter how early she started and no matter how senior she was, she would never be able to take on the important task of being the head of the sect. She thought that she had been by Master's side for many years and had never been taken seriously, so her expression darkened slightly and her heart was hard to calm down.

Seeing that all important matters were entrusted to him, Taiqing felt relieved, and lay back down, his complexion became more and more gray, but he let out a long sigh of relief, and asked: "Where are all the disciples under my seat? Ask them to come to see me .”

Su Yao respectfully replied: "Master, Junior Brother Yun has been waiting outside the hall for a long time."

Taiqing was slightly taken aback: "He's the only one?"

"Junior Brother Xuanxiao and Junior Sister Suyu are stationed at Juanyun Terrace, so they are not allowed to come."

"There are a total of 28 disciples passed on by the master. Why, can it be that there are only four of you left?"

Su Yao silently lowered her head and pressed her lips tightly.

Taiqing stared at the flickering candle in front of him, felt that the long night was so cold and lonely for the first time, stayed for a while, then nodded, and called: "Tianqing come in."

Yun Tianqing could hear clearly outside the door, and stepped into the room as he said.When the door was pushed open, there was a gust of night wind, and the faded moon-white curtains were rolled up, and even the lotus lantern on the copper frame swayed, reflecting ghostly shadows on the bluestone ground.

In the past, when all the disciples were gathered together, this hall still felt a bit crowded, but now there are many fewer people, it seems so empty and terrifying.

Seeing Yun Tianqing kneeling beside him, a smile finally appeared on Taiqing's pale and old face, and he slowly reached out his hand, just like he did many, many years ago, and touched the top of his head.

After five years, that fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boy with a heartless smile has long since disappeared in the depths of time.But for Taiqing, even for any elder, the little apprentice he watched grow up, in fact, has not changed from the beginning to the end, always, always the original child who knows nothing about the world.

After a pause, he closed his eyes and said, "Okay, I'm tired, take a rest, you don't need to stay here anymore."

Several people saluted in turn, and silently exited the room.

That night, all the disciples were waiting on the steps under the porch in front of the door, they could only hear the people in the room sighing, tossing and turning, only two words were read.

The way of heaven, Shengxian.

When the sky turned slightly blue, there was finally no sound in the room.Some young disciples couldn't bear it anymore, they covered their mouths and sobbed softly.Elder Zong Lian brushed away the crowd, walked to the door, hesitated for a long time, then stepped into the room, paused for a moment, then came out, with a miserable expression, and said in a hoarse voice:

"The head of Taiqing... has died."

***

The wooden door was pushed open with a bang, and a Qionghua disciple rushed in like a whirlwind, shouting all the way: "It's not good, it's not good!"

Chong Guang, who was sitting in the backlight of the hall, let out a low voice: "There is a lot of noise in the hall, what a shame! What happened?"

The disciple didn't expect that the most stern Elder Zhengfa was also present, and immediately fell silent like cicadas, fell to his knees, murmured for a long while, and said, "Report to Elder, the Suwu Department and our Prestige Department have quarreled again, and they even moved hands." ..."

In a word, Zhijiang Chongguang secretly gritted his teeth when he heard it, slapped the table with a cold face, and said to Qingyang beside him: "Xin and Junior Brother have passed away, and there is no elder in the Suwu Department, but it is understandable, but the disciples of the Prestige Department are all you Personally, how could such an incident happen!"

Qingyang was also in a state of desperation, and asked repeatedly: "Xu Ru, how could there be another dispute?"

The disciple named Xuru wanted to open his mouth, but Qingyang hurriedly raised his hand to stop: "Is it because of who is guarding Juanyuntai, or is there someone who wants to go down the mountain?"

"The elder guessed it right. When changing shifts this evening, the brothers of the Suwu Department spread rumors again, saying, 'Even if you don't get killed by monsters today, you will be cut off tomorrow if you lose control of the two swords. What's the use of guarding? 'We couldn't get used to it, so we argued with them, but we didn't expect Senior Brother Xu Ji to make a move first. Seeing that it was getting dark, they became more and more troublesome..."

Xu Ruyu babbled on and on, over there Qingyang had already been quarreling and had a headache, he stood up with his hands on his forehead: "Okay, I'll go and have a look."

Seeing the figures of the two hurried out of the door, Zong Lian sighed heavily, shook his head and said: "The external troubles have not been eliminated, and the internal troubles have arisen again. How to deal with them, we need to come up with a decision as soon as possible."

Chong Guang snorted coldly: "A group of cowardly and fearful people will make trouble for no reason. Is it really necessary to follow their wishes, remove the double swords, and give up the ascension!"

"But the demon world has been unable to attack for a long time, and the battle situation is stalemate. The two hosts of the two swords are suffering from fire and freezing day and night. They are in great pain. I don't know how long they can last. It is not an option to waste time without embarrassment, alas!"

"Zong Lian! The head of the sect said that day, 'We need to work together to exterminate the demons and assist the twin swords to ascend, and fulfill my long-cherished wish for many years.' Did you forget everything!"

"How dare I forget, it's just—"

Chongguang was upset, and before he could finish speaking, he had already walked away.Only Zonglian was left alone, staring in a daze at the dark hall under the setting sun.

In just a few days, the entire Qionghua faction's mind has changed, and it has deteriorated to an unprecedented level.

After the head of Taiqing passed away, Chan You, the lord of the demon world, never appeared again. However, his whereabouts were so secretive, which made people suspicious. Everyone waited in fear for a few days.In addition, since the beginning of the ascension, the spiritual power of the two swords has returned twice, which is extremely dangerous, and it makes people wonder whether this method of ascension is feasible?

Gradually, more and more people in the faction held different opinions.One faction advocates continuing the fight, while the other advocates letting the demon world go.The two factions have been constantly arguing all day long, both internal and external troubles have attacked, and the elders and deacons who are in charge have been confused, and they don't know what to do.

Zong Lian was sighing alone, when he suddenly heard footsteps, a person pushed the door and entered, when he looked intently, the person had a graceful figure, surrounded by the aura of Wangshu, and instantly illuminated half of the hall, it turned out to be Suyu.Seeing her, Zong Lian was not surprised, but sighed again, with deep tiredness in his voice:

"Suyu, why are you here again..."

Hearing these words, Suyu's figure swayed slightly, her face turned pale, and was reflected by Wang Shu's cold light, it was even more transparent, but there was an unusual cold determination in her expression.She prostrated herself on the ground and said loudly word by word:

"Suyu, the second generation disciple of Qionghua Sect, implore all the elders to make a decision, remove the restraint of the double swords, and let the demon world go!"

In the past few days, the elders have heard the same words no less than ten times.

Since the aura of the two swords went out of control again that day, Xuan Xiao and Su Yu were heavily guarded by the disciples, and they stayed on the lotus platform and could no longer use their skills to fight the demon world.The two of them were unconscious most of the time, but even in their dreams they couldn't be at ease, the sun was burning, the ice was gnawing at their bodies, and all kinds of pain were beyond human understanding.However, as long as Suyu wakes up for a moment, he will disregard everyone's dissuasion and go to see a few or three elders, requesting to take back the power of the two swords and let the demon world go.

However, it is difficult to seize this once-in-19-year opportunity, but it is even more difficult to let go.

The amethyst stones are accumulating more and more, and the sword pillar is getting higher and higher, but the sky is still so high, and the wish of ascension is still so far away, it seems that there will never be a day when it will end.

Should we give up, or should we persevere?

Giving up is a matter of reluctance, but persistence is almost at the limit.

Zhang Xu away, Suyu's figure crouching at the end of the hall looks so thin, she has lost a lot of weight in just a few days.Ke Zonglian is not like this?Qionghua faction is still alive, who is not like this?You can't advance, but you can't retreat, as if you only need to take a step back, years of persistence and hard work will collapse into powder, and the whole person will also be reduced to ashes.

Zong Lian slowly closed his eyes, turned his back, and said calmly: "Suyu, you go back first."

But Suyu, who always obeyed his master's order, gritted his teeth at this moment, and knelt on the ground motionless, as if he wanted to force the elders to make a painful decision.

After a while, there was another rush of footsteps, and a white figure swept into the hall, and knelt down side by side with Suyu, and the clear voice spread throughout the hall:

"Qinghua faction disciple Yun Tianqing, I implore all the elders to order to remove the twin swords and let the demon world go!"

But seeing Chong Guang walking out from the back of the palace, he shouted angrily: "Lawless, what nonsense!"

After finishing the sentence, another voice came: "I implore all the elders to order to remove the restraint of the double swords!"

This time, the voice came from outside the hall.Taking advantage of the blood-colored sunset that was about to set, Chongguang and Zonglian could clearly see that there were more than twenty disciples kneeling together in front of the palace gate, most of them were from the Shenxing Department, even Xuanji and Suxin were there. in.

Chong Guang and Zong Lian looked at each other, feeling extremely troubled and confused for a moment.

During the stalemate, suddenly heard from the direction of Juanyuntai, someone shouted from a distance: "No, the monsters are attacking again!" Immediately afterwards, there was a roar of monster beasts, mixed with the sound of countless gold and iron clashing , Shouting and cursing.

Chong Guang's face changed color, but for some reason, he relaxed a little in his heart, and hurriedly said: "The demon army is attacking, why are you kneeling here and not moving? Hurry up and rescue!"

Only then did the crowd disperse one after another, Su Yu also stood up with a dismal expression, without saying a word, she took Wang Shu Jian and ran out.As soon as she left the hall, she heard Yun Tianqing calling her from behind: "Suyu!"

She turned around and stared blankly at his face, feeling heartbroken for a moment, two lines of tears rolled down, at this time the sun had completely set behind the mountain, the tears were hidden in the twilight, and then I can't see clearly either.In the howling wind, he could only hear her ask very softly: "This time, how many people will die again?"

He took a step forward and grabbed her wrist, as if he was holding it with all his strength, the pain made her eyes go black, but she was fully awake again.His voice came from his ears, calm and firm: "Follow me."

"Where to go?"

"Lianhuatai, find Xuanxiao, let's go down the mountain together! The Qionghua faction has lost its two swords and can no longer bind the demon world with nets. All these disputes will naturally end!"

She looked at him in disbelief, but her heart that had been in despair for a long time came alive just because of this short sentence, and then she nodded vigorously and said, "Okay!"

Pushing away the thick darkness and the blood in his eyes, he pulled her, with the Shadow Bearing Sword under his feet, whistling like a shooting star.

In a trance, she seemed to feel that she had returned to a long time ago, and the three of them galloped above the clear sky with their swords together.

At that time, the young man was full of anger and no worries.With a sword and a jug of wine, I traveled all over the mountains, rivers and lakes.

So beautiful, so real, so close that you can reach out, it is very yearning.Anything about ascension or immortality is just a dream, all hell!It's better to go back, it's better to go back, laugh with me and go back to the world of mortals, flying flowers with full sleeves!

The lotus platform gradually appeared in front of my eyes, and under the rising moonlight, I could already see Xuan Xiao standing on the jade platform in a white dress with wide sleeves and black hair flying in the air.So, this long, nightmare-like years should be over.

Suddenly, amidst the chaotic sounds of fighting, a thin whine clearly entered the ears of the two of them.

Thoughts flashed like lightning, when he went up the mountain in the past, the figure of the little snow wolf who lost his parents flashed into Yun Tianqing's mind instantly.He still hadn't made a decision in his heart, his body was already in a state of shock, he pulled Suyu down and said, "Go and see!"

As soon as the two of them set foot on the ground, they saw five or six nephews from Yuanzi generation surrounding a young monster, and the sharp long sword in their hands had been stabbed out.The poor little monster is at most the size of a rabbit, and it looks like a fluffy snowball. It doesn't know that it will be decapitated in the next moment. It only blinks a pair of big black eyes and stares curiously at the few people in front of it. .

Yun Tianqing was furious, and shouted: "Stop!"

The few people were startled, turned around and saw that they were the second-generation disciples of our sect, so they didn't care, and said with a smile: "Master Tianqing
