There are bandits in Zhongshan

There have been several heavy snowfalls at the foot of Yunfu Mountain, the rivers are frozen, and every house is closed, and the bare branches in front of the houses vividly outline the bleakness of the midwinter.

The mountain path has long been buried under the thick snow, but after passing through the perennial fog on the mountainside, you can see large areas of green rushing into your eyes.

Although the highest points of several mountain peaks are covered with ice and snow that does not melt all the year round, but where the ice and snow are not enough, the spring is warm and flowers are blooming, as if the spring breeze has never left.

Under the protection of the Great Array of Protecting Mountains, the seven peaks of Tianyi Sect do not have to worry about severe heat and cold, just like the fairyland in human legends.

On the mountain behind the main peak, Yun Yi stood in front of a quaint attic, bathed in the warm sunshine, but his expression was not half happy, but his brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes were filled with unresolved melancholy.

He stared intently at the seal on the top of the pavilion, and suddenly let out a sigh.

This attic is called Ziji Pavilion, and many treasures of the Tianyi Sect are stored in it, and the top floor is where the Cangwu Sword is located.Back then, Qianmianyan came to the Ziji Pavilion to snatch the Cangwu Sword when he entered the sky alone.

After Master Shui Jing attained enlightenment and ascended, he left behind a wooden sword. Although the sword is made of wood, it is extremely sharp. Those with insufficient cultivation will be injured by its sharpness just by approaching it.

After the suzerain at that time got the Cangwu Sword, although he declared it to be the treasure of the Zongmen, it has been shelved until now, not to mention outsiders, even most of the disciples of the sect had no chance to see it.

Therefore, at that time there were rumors that the Daocangwu sword was just a lie of Tian Yizong, because the real person Shui Jing had a chance from heaven, and left extremely suddenly, so Tian Yizong lost his cultivation without preparation. As the most profound elder, he had to fabricate this name to deter outsiders.

There were also people who tried to force their way through the mountain gate, but they were all blocked by the mountain protection array, and they failed to force Tian Yizong to the point where they had to use the Cangwu Sword.

It wasn't until more than 1000 years ago, when a golden-armored monster made waves, that the Cangwu Sword appeared in front of the world for the first time.

That monster is already at the final stage of cultivating the gods. It is said that the demon cultivator with profound Taoism was only one step away from breaking through to the realm of the cave, but it was a pity that he lost his mind and became a monster. Far surpassed most monks at that time.And because the whole body is covered with golden armor, it is indestructible, and many magic tools can't damage it, so everyone was helpless for a while.

In the end, Tian Yizong sacrificed the Cangwu Sword. Wu Hui, who had just reached the state of becoming a god, held the Cangwu Sword and killed the monsters under the sword.

After that battle, no one dared to underestimate Tian Yizong. Although Cangwu Sword has been locked on the top floor of Ziji Pavilion since then, its reputation has never wavered.

No matter how powerful a spirit sword a craftsman forges, no one dares to compare it with the Cangwu Sword.

At that time Yun Yi hadn't started yet, he had only heard about the thrilling past from the disciples of the previous generation, he had never seen the ability of the golden armored monster to destroy the world, and he had never seen the extremely sharp sword with his own eyes.

But as suzerain, he still knows more than others.

For example, although the Cangwu Sword is extremely sharp, it still has weaknesses.

It is made of wood, which is afraid of fire and is far more fragile than iron. If it is not used properly, it is likely to shatter the blade.That's why Tian Yizong put it on the shelf for such a long time.And because of its sharpness, only a strong swordsman can control it, and others will be hurt by it instead.

Therefore, there is a secret order in the door, not to use the Cangwu sword lightly until the critical moment.

After being taught a lesson by Qianmianyan who took advantage of the situation a hundred years ago, the entire Tianyi School stepped up precautions to ensure that they would not repeat the same mistakes. Yun Yi originally thought that even if the Cangwu sword could not be released, it would be enough to protect him for hundreds of years. It is safe and sound, who knows that the world is unpredictable.After Hexu Mountain rejected Fairy Yuyuan, Tianyi School became the target of public criticism. Although Mo Chenxiang's help made the sneak attack planned by Du Xuanze and others fall short, but if there is one thing like this, there must be another.

Those who follow Fairy Yu have their own thoughts, how could they let this opportunity go?

Master Guhong didn't know when he would be able to leave the pass, before that, if he wanted to protect himself, he might have to sacrifice the Cangwu Sword—Yun Yi let out a sigh.

At this time, suddenly a gust of wind blew past him, and suddenly there was a figure beside him, with black robe and white beard, it was Mu Danxin.

Yun Yi hurriedly saluted and said, "Disciple has seen Master."

Mu Danxin waved his hand to signal that he doesn't need to be too polite, raised his eyes to the top of Ziji Pavilion, then glanced at Yun Yi, and asked, "Yi'er, do you want to take out the Cangwu Sword?"

"Teacher has this idea." Yun Yi didn't deny it, "But we still need to discuss with several elders before making a decision."

"Cangwu Sword..." A trance appeared in Mu Dan's heart, as if he remembered the past, "If Senior Brother Wu holds this sword, maybe he can not be afraid of Fairy Yuyuan."

"It's so powerful?" Yun Yi was a little surprised. He only knew that if he held this sword, Wu Hui would be invincible among monks of the same realm, but he didn't expect that it would be able to match the monk Dongxu.

"I'm also guessing." Mu Dan thought to himself, "Back then, even Master Guhong couldn't destroy the outer armor of the golden-armored monster, he could only use magic to trap it, but after Senior Brother Wu got the Cangwu Sword, he only used One sword, and it will be cut under the sword."

"If this is the case, I can rest assured." Yun Yi's expression softened a little, but soon became heavy again, "However, only Master Wu and Junior Sister in the door can use the Cangwu Sword. Don't make any mistakes outside."

There was no news from Changli for a long time, and Wu Hui sent a letter back not long ago, saying that he was investigating the matter related to Fairy Yuyuan, and the return date was uncertain.Of the only two sword cultivators in the Tianyi Sect, one is missing and the other is indeterminate. Just thinking about Yun Yi can't stop worrying.

At this time, he heard Mu Dan say in his heart: "Speaking of this, Junior Sister has just sent a letter back, and I just asked you to talk about this matter."

As soon as he heard it, he asked anxiously: "Have they found little junior sister?"

"Not yet, but some other clues have been found."

Longtian Li found a remnant of the monks fighting, and found several waves of people who were also searching for Changli nearby, so they guessed that Changli should be safe now, but they are hiding, and they have fewer people. If there is a conflict with other waves of people, I am afraid that I will lose the wind, so I sent a letter back to ask for support.

"Junior Sister also said that there are traces of magic circles left on the outer wall of the nearby mortal town, and they can't see the doorway. It is not suitable for you to leave Yunfu Mountain at present, so I can only go there by myself."

"So that's how it is." Yun Yi sighed in disappointment, then forced a smile, "Then I will thank Master."

At this moment, he suddenly felt the aura on the top of the mountain sway, and the next moment, the bitter cold wind howled, mixed with some ice crystals and hit his face.

"This?" He touched his face in doubt, then looked around, it was still sunny, and there were no traces of frost, "What happened just now—"

Before he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of the shock and fear on Mu Dan's heart, and he reacted immediately, his whole body was icy cold, as if he had been immersed in ice water, and every corner from head to toe felt chilly.

Just at that moment, the spiritual array on Tianyi Peak failed.

——Maybe not only this mountain, but the entire Yunfu Mountain lost the protection of the mountain protection array for a short time.

This is something that has never happened before. Although the barrier has been restored to its original state at this time, without even leaving a trace, as if it was just a hallucination, but Yun Yi's back is covered with cold sweat.

I only hope that it was just an accident, if not——

He didn't dare to think about it anymore.

At the foot of Jiuyi Mountain, Lu Linli stood on the wall of the nearest city, watching the people coming and going below, as if he was thinking about something. Suddenly, he noticed a hint of apricot approaching from a distance, and said coldly: "Why are you here again? ?”

This time Jiang Zhao didn't deliberately hide her figure, she appeared in front of Lu Lin in a hurry with a pale complexion, and said, "Li Langxuan was captured by Fairy Yuyuan."

"What?" Lu Lin's face darkened, and Jiang Zhao immediately felt a little more oppressive around her, but she didn't care to dodge, so she bit the bullet and explained everything she saw.

It turned out that after she handed the things to Li Langxuan, she found out that the other party left Yanlu City not long after, and took away a large number of strange magic weapons that she had never seen before from the Zhenbao Pavilion. , she was a little curious, and wanted to watch the excitement, and because she had nothing to do, she followed Li Langxuan secretly.

Speaking of this, she noticed Lu Lin's cold eyes, and she felt a little guilty in her voice, but she didn't dare to argue, knowing that Lu Lin would not give her any good looks if she just said nonsense at this time.

She followed Li Langxuan to Xiaojing Lake, and saw that he had set up a manor out of thin air on an island in the middle of the lake, and released colorful birds with invitation letters. But before the guests came, she found that Ye Lianxi led a large number of Experts came over, although Li Langxuan had many magic weapons, he was not good at fighting after all, so he was quickly defeated and was taken away by Ye Lianxi.

Ye Lianxi also brought two masters of transforming spirits to help out. Jiang Zhao had seen those two people on the Hexu Mountain before, so she guessed that they were related to Fairy Yuyuan. Lu Lin wanted to send the letter to Li Langxuan by himself, and if he found out that something happened to Li Langxuan, he couldn't let it go.

The other party had three masters of transforming spirits, and she had no other helpers, even if she tried her best, she would die in vain, so she had to rush back to Jiuyi Mountain to look for Lu Lin.She didn't dare to say, in fact, she hoped that Lu Lin had already left Jiuyi Mountain, so that she would be benevolent, even if the other party wanted to pursue her, they would not be able to catch her. Unexpectedly, it has been a few months, and Lu Lin is still there.

She had just finished speaking when she saw a shadow in front of her, and Lu Lin had disappeared.

The sound of water roared into the ears, like bells and drums, and water splashed on the face from time to time, chilling to the bone.

Chang Li opened her eyes, her eyelashes were covered with water mist, and when she opened her eyes, she felt surrounded by water, and after a long time, the dark sky was reflected in her eyes.Next to it is a waterfall, the top of which is followed by night, and it looks like it has fallen from the sky.

This is where?

Her mind was a little confused, she stood up, and the Langgan sword immediately dragged on the ground with a crisp sound. It turned out that when she lost consciousness, she was still holding the sword tightly, in the posture of defending against the enemy.

She remembered rushing into the water to—

"Azhu... Ah Zhu!" Realizing that Zhong Mingzhu was not by her side, she immediately searched around anxiously, and soon, she saw a white dress not far away.

Zhong Mingzhu hadn't woken up yet, she leaned closer to the waterfall, her hair was soaked, and a few strands of hair stuck tightly to her cheeks, making her complexion paler.

"A Zhu!" Changli rushed over quickly, the ground was slippery, she didn't even bother to cast spells to stabilize her figure, she grabbed Zhong Mingzhu's wrist before she could stand still, and realized that the other party was fine, her heart was beating wildly. recover.

Zhong Mingzhu just lost consciousness, probably because of too much energy consumption, some cold air intruded in his veins, other than that, there were no other problems.

Changli carried her away from the waterfall, cast spells to remove the water stains on the two of them, and applied medicine to her neck wound, then took out a blanket from the storage ring and placed it under her body, and launched the cold-dispelling magic circle , and then began to carefully look around.

After rushing into the lake, she immediately grabbed Zhong Mingzhu, and the two of them were pushed to the bottom of the lake by the aftermath of the talisman. Immediately afterwards, she felt Ji Qiancheng's sword.

That sword is so powerful, it contains undeniable power, enough to clear all obstacles, the moment the sword is used, the ending seems to be doomed.

She didn't have time to escape, and she didn't even have room to think. When she was surrounded by sword energy, she ignored any strategies to deal with the enemy. It was probably because of her years of sword practice that she subconsciously swung the sword.

In the next moment, there seemed to be a huge crack between the heaven and the earth, the noise disappeared, the turbulent water flow, the oscillating spiritual energy, everything disappeared, and the boundless darkness engulfed everything.

Before her consciousness drifted away, her last move was to clenched Zhong Mingzhu's hand more and more tightly.

Maybe that's why they end up in the same place?

She separated her spiritual sense and found out that the sky above her head was not the sky. Her first reaction was that she had fallen into a cave, but there was no rocky roof, more like nothingness.

The spiritual power disappeared after breaking into it. There was no obstacle, and there was no end to it. The same was true for the water in the waterfall. She followed the water upstream and could only perceive the endless falling water, but could not find the upstream river or lake.

There is a pool under the waterfall, and the water in the pool is crystal clear without any impurities.The water trickled down from the waterfall, and then flowed out on the other side of the pool, converging in a low place to form a meandering river, flowing into the darkness with no end in sight.

Compared with Xiaojing Lake, the aura here is extraordinarily abundant, enough to rival the hilltops of Yunfu Mountain where there are spirit gathering arrays. Changli felt that the spiritual energy consumed before was quickly recovered without deliberately practicing kung fu.And the spiritual power seems to be flowing in one direction, just like the water flow, it also falls from the top and then flows in a certain direction.

Apart from her and Zhong Mingzhu, there was no sign of any living beings nearby, not even a single weed could be seen.

She couldn't tell what this place was, it was different from any place she'd been to, only that it was strange everywhere.

She didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing, but after repeated searches and couldn't find any useful clues, she sighed softly.

The man in black and Ji Qiancheng didn't follow, so she could breathe a sigh of relief, but who knew if there was something more terrifying hidden here.She thought of the demon cave in Heishui Ridge, her eyes turned around, and finally fell on the pool under the waterfall. She felt a little more vigilant, and after a little thought, she moved to the distance with Zhong Mingzhu, Pulling away the distance from the pool, he formed a barrier in front of him again.

After opening the barrier, she found something glowing around her, and when she took a closer look, it was a wooden box.

The wooden box was lying behind a stone, and the light on it was very weak, so she didn't notice it until she changed its position.She picked up the wooden box and wanted to see if there were any clues on it, but found it was locked. After checking it, she found that she couldn't find a way to open it, so she put the wooden box into the storage ring, intending to When Zhong Mingzhu wakes up, let her see if there is any way.

Time passed little by little, and Zhong Mingzhu showed no signs of waking up.Changli was a little worried, so he checked her again, only to find that the coldness in her body had disappeared, her breath had gradually become steady and long, and the scar on her neck had disappeared, much faster than expected, and she thought she should It was the body recovering on its own and consuming excess energy, so I was lethargic all the time, so I felt relieved.

She was really too tired, she looked at Zhong Mingzhu's sleeping face, unconsciously stretched out her hand, and gently stroked the other's face.

This situation is somewhat familiar.

A few months ago, in the town next to the Liuhe Pagoda, she also looked at the other person's face quietly like this.

At that time, she didn't understand anything, but she felt that Zhong Mingzhu was very quiet after falling asleep. While wondering about the hot emotions in her heart, she couldn't move her eyes. She just stared at it for a long time, until she fell into a deep sleep. .

It turned out that it had already started at that time—her fingertips paused, and distress and guilt flashed in her eyes.

A long time ago, Zhong Mingzhu had been by her side, would smile at her, tease her, and always share with her anything interesting.

"Azhu..."

And in those 100 years, she didn't even call Zhong Mingzhu's name, and she didn't even think about it.

"Azhu, I'm sorry..."

Because of her, Zhong Mingzhu was involved in these things and suffered unnecessary injuries. Otherwise, in her capacity, there was no need to risk her life to plot against an opponent whose cultivation level was much higher than hers.It's the same this time, if it wasn't for her, how could Zhong Mingzhu use the blood curse to scare Ye Lianxi away, how could he be threatened by the man in black, and end up living in this weird place.

The more she thought about it, the more sad she felt, but she was also faintly happy.

At least they are still together.

"A Zhu, I will protect you well in the future, and will not let you get hurt because of me again."

She held Zhong Mingzhu's hand, and made a promise like an oath, and then felt the strength of the hand gripping back and forth, and unconsciously raised the corners of her lips, revealing a shallow smile.

For a time, the bright moon was bright, and everything was gloomy.

On the edge of Goddess Peak, wandering monks from the five lakes are meditating and adjusting their breath. Ever since they knew they needed the bones of a real dragon, most of the monks have left the Hexu Mountain, and he has no family and no disciples to send, so he thought: Even if he tried his best, he might not be able to find the bone of a real dragon, but his cultivation was real.

So he simply settled here, taking advantage of Jianying's convenience to continue practicing.

Having said that, he still felt a little regretful about the lack of opportunities to make meritorious deeds.

On this day, he suddenly saw someone heading straight for Goddess Peak like a shooting star, but he was a person who had no allies. He was worried that he would not have the chance to make a name in front of Fairy Yu Yuan, so he was overjoyed when he saw someone coming to his door, so he immediately stopped that person from going , but before he even had time to say anything, he felt a thunderbolt from the top of his head, and his hard-earned cultivation was immediately wasted.

Lu Lin didn't even look at him, there was an enchantment on Shennv Peak, but with a flash of the saber in his hand, the enchantment was cut through instantly.

Fairy Yuyuan stood on the edge of the cliff with her back to him. She had already sensed that there was an unexpected visitor, but she didn't even move a step. After Lu Lin stood still behind her, she slowly said: "You came in a hurry, it's a change. Got an idea?"

"Where is Li Langxuan?" Lu Lin ignored him, but asked Li Langxuan's whereabouts directly.

Fairy Yu Yuan turned around and looked at one place with a cold expression, "He was still here not long ago, but he is no longer here."

Lu Lin followed her gaze, and anger surged in his light gray eyes.

It was an open space with nothing on it, only a little spiritual power that hadn't fully dissipated.

"You killed him?" Lu Lin's voice was tense, and he was trying his best to restrain the turbulent emotions in it.

"He begged me to kill him." Yu Yuan seemed to be talking about something unimportant, "After all, not everyone can bear Legilimency."

She looked at Lu Lin's suddenly constricted pupils, and sighed regretfully, then threw a furnace on the ground, which was scrapped with a crack in it.

"I don't know if you are worried about Li Langxuan or others. As for Qian Mianyan, he has already left." Then she continued, "I don't understand, since you and I have the same goal, why can't we cooperate."

Lu Lin sneered: "I will not be controlled by others."

"And now?"

"No matter when." After Lu Lin finished speaking, he walked out, and within a few steps, he heard Yu Yuan's voice:

"I can sell you a favor, Qian Mianyan went to Yunfu Mountain."

He stopped walking, his gray eyes returned to indifference, and his tone returned to his usual mocking tone: "It's still the same sentence, if you need red gold, just ask, it's just—" He glanced back at Yu Yuan, his eyes Suddenly, a dark color flashed across, "Don't touch my people."

Looking at those light-colored eyes, Fairy Yuyuan suddenly felt a chill run up her spine.

That is fear, from the depths of the soul.

"Who are you?" She couldn't help asking.

But Lu Lin had disappeared.

She clenched her hands tightly, and her expressionless face suddenly twisted.

"No matter who you are, no matter who you are, you will not be my hindrance, I will definitely cultivate the Dao!"

A sound almost insane echoed over Shennv Peak, and suddenly the wind blew up, and the whole mountain was pulled into the haze.
