Yu Hongchen

Xiang Wanning shouted: "Master, I won't leave!"

Accompanied by the sound of cracking all over the sky, only the stern voice of the head of Qingyang came: "You don't even listen to what you say as a teacher?"

Regardless of the obstruction of the demonic energy under her feet, Xiang Wanning rushed to the center of the magic cocoon with all her heart. She summoned the greatest strength in her life, moved step by step, and slowly surpassed Shang Lixing and approached the center of the magic cocoon.

The head of Qingyang entangled Mozun tightly, and sternly said: "Li Xing, take her away!" After he yelled this sentence, he yelled again, and brought forth a majestic sword intent, trapping Mozun's body. god.

His voice gradually slowed down, as if he couldn't speak anymore.

Shang Lixing also knew that the situation was urgent at the moment, Qu Bai was slightly injured, and the extent of the injury was unknown, the aptitude of the disciples outside was mediocre, and none of them had the ability to subdue the Mozun Yuanshen, if the Mozun really escaped, wouldn't he teach Master Qingyang 300 Years of painstaking efforts in vain?

Thinking of this, he pulled Xiang Wanning back a few steps, and shouted: "Master, we are waiting for you outside!"

I don't want Xiang Wanning to shake his hand away, saying: "Senior brother Shang, you go out first!"

Shang Lixing didn't know whether to scold her or laugh at her, he said in a deep voice, "Junior Sister Xiang, don't delay, don't be willful!"

Xiang Wanning didn't turn his head and said: "Brother Shang, when we came in, you looked forward and backward to protect me. How could Xiang Wanning not know? What you need to do now is to set up the formation as quickly as possible. One more me is just a burden. "

She spoke very quickly, but her voice was unambiguous: "I have my own ideas, and it is the responsibility of the Yunshan Sword Sect to slay demons and demons. As the chief disciple of the Yunshan Sword Sect, I must advance and retreat with the master! "

Facing Shang Lixing's deep frown, she smiled and said, "Xiang Wanning never does anything that I regret."

Shang Lixing looked at her with a complicated expression, then nodded and said: "Okay, I will be back soon, you must persevere!"

He knew in his heart that if he continued to delay, he would sacrifice two lives in vain. With a thought, the sword flew up and returned to the outer edge of the sea in the blink of an eye.

The disciples of Tianyi Pavilion are on standby here, and many disciples of Qiushuimen Loose Cultivator and Yunshan Sword Sect are also gathered here.

Everyone looked very nervous, seeing Shang Lixing coming out, they shouted in unison: "Sect master!" "Senior brother Shang!"

Facing the bitter wind, Shang Lixing shouted: "All disciples listen to my orders and set up the killing magic circle!"

Everyone echoed in unison: "Yes!"

Mozun's primordial spirit has escaped a lot, and only the most important life soul is still locked in the cocoon, confronting the head of Qingyang.The most urgent task is to set up a magic circle to kill all his souls before they escape.

Shang Lixing reached into his bosom, and sacrificed the yellow, white, and black talisman papers in his hands one by one. With the help of the sea breeze, he beat the talisman papers to various directions. The disciples of each group listened to his orders and cooperated seamlessly. Arrange flags in Liuhe directions, waiting for one side to guard.

When the positions of all parties were settled, there was a long clanging sound, and a burst of light swept across the sky, so dazzling that it was hard to look directly at it.

On the side of the Nine Heavens, the gods and ghosts have changed, and the Nine Heavens Demon Killing Formation has been formed.

The wisps of the Demon Lord's primordial spirit hidden in the demonic energy had no time to escape, and when they touched the array of light, they were smashed into a piece of powder, dissipating invisible like phantom bubbles.

As the demonic energy was wiped out by the magic circle, the violent wind on the sea stopped suddenly, the clouds disappeared and the rain disappeared, and the sky and the earth returned to light, leaving only a huge cocoon exuding heavy demonic energy in the center of the sea area of ​​Dongdao.

Shang Lixing and the head of Qingyang cooperated internally and externally, trapped and killed Mozun's soul and body, and the arrogance of the human monks rose sharply, while the opposite was Mozun who was gradually driven to the end of his life.

Knowing that the Mozun would definitely fight trapped beasts at the moment of dying, Shang Lixing moved his body with his thoughts, and after the formation was formed, he immediately rushed towards the direction of the magic cocoon that trapped the head of Qingyang and the Mozun, and he had just rushed halfway At that time, I heard a stern scolding sound from afar in the magic cocoon: "Nonsense, didn't I tell you to go?"

Xiang Wanning's crying voice then rang out: "Master, Wan Ning is the chief disciple, and he is qualified to accompany Master to exorcise demons!"

Qing Yang's voice became more and more dignified: "You are not qualified, get out!"

Shang Lixing was flustered for a while and accelerated his pace.After those two cursing, the interior of the cocoon suddenly became quiet, only a few imperceptible murmurs of cursing were heard, and the content of the words could not be heard at all.When Shangli was about to fly to the outer edge of the magic cocoon, there was another loud laugh.It seems very happy, but also seems very relieved.Shang Lixing laughed strangely when he heard the laughter, he stopped, and then ran even faster!

That was the laughter of Sect Leader Qing Yang!

His eyebrows trembled, and when he rushed to the periphery of the cocoon, he just saw a figure of a female cultivator being thrown out, and immediately flew up, flew over, and caught Xiang Wanning firmly.

Xiang Wanning's tears fell like broken threads with the wind, and she leaned into his arms and shouted excitedly: "Master!"

After listening to Master Qingyang laughing, he drank in a deep voice, a loud thunderous noise suddenly erupted in the center of the magic cocoon, and then a ray of rainbow light was projected from the inside of the magic cocoon, penetrating the endless magic energy, it was like a burst of light The more dazzling golden light shrouded the magic cocoon instead.

At the same time, there was a shrill howl from inside the magic cocoon.

Shang Lixing suddenly had an ominous premonition, he put down Xiang Wanning and went straight to the inside of the cocoon.Unexpectedly, after the golden light trapped the magic cocoon, it would actually burn against the wind, clusters of red flames rose high, and its color was as bright as flowing gold and refined stones. When he approached, the flames shot up into the sky, burning his black robe Burn to ashes!

He was so anxious that he quickly slapped the fireworks off his body, and shouted outside one after another: "Master! The Demon Killing Formation has been set up, come out quickly!"

Xiang Wanning also shouted from the side: "Master! Master!"

In the midst of the raging fire, the majestic voice of the head of Qingyang came out: "Where is Xiang Wanning?"

Xiang Wanning's eyes were red, and she shouted, "Master, what are you doing?"

Then the head of Qingyang shouted sharply: "Where is Xiang Wanning?"

Xiang Wanning wiped away the tears on his face and said loudly, "The disciple is here!"

Sect Leader Qing Yang said: "From today onwards, you will be the No. 30 head of the Yunshan Sword Sect, leading the 520 four disciples of the Yunshan Sword Sect to carry forward the might of the Yunshan Sword!"

Xiang Wanning was still worried and shouted: "Master, come out quickly! I don't want to be the head of the sect, I just want you to come out safely!"

Mozun's miserable scream sounded again, and the head of Qingyang let out a muffled voice, and shouted in a rough voice: "...Are you going to piss your master off to death?"

Xiang Wanning looked at Shang Lixing who was trying to rush into the sea of ​​flames, read the meaning of encouragement from his firm eyes, gritted his teeth, nodded and said: "Yes, disciple obeys, disciple will definitely carry forward the Yunshan Sword Sect and live up to the master Zun Entuo, don't fall into the prestige of Yunshan Mountain!"

Her tears fell again, crying so hard that she couldn't speak because of her sobs.

Shang Lixing slapped Hong Huo hard on his face, and said in a trembling voice: "...Sect Leader, why is that?"

The voice of the head of Qingyang suddenly fell silent: "Hurry up!"

The sea of ​​flames grew against the wind, and the momentum became fiercer. Shang Lixing and Xiang Wanning hovered outside the magic cocoon. Half of their clothes and hair were burnt.

The head of Qingyang refused to listen to the painstaking advice of the two of them, and was determined to die with Mozun Mingtian together!

"Come on!"

How could Shang Lixing see Daoist Qingyang doing such a thing, he tried his best to put out the fire, but he was still unable to get in, and all the cultivation methods he was familiar with in his daily life were useless at this time.When he broke out in a cold sweat, there was an earth-shattering bombing sound in the sea of ​​flames, and the magic cocoon burst apart like countless fragments, and the disciples around the besieged sea area exclaimed together.The two were caught off guard, and were shocked by the air wave that exploded the cocoon for more than ten feet.

At the moment before Qi Qi fell into the sea, a teardrop of extreme sadness slipped down the cheeks of the two of them.

After a shocking explosion, the sky broke through the clouds, the sea waves stopped suddenly, and the strong wind hummed over the sea area.A piece of robe fragments fell on the sea surface, and after several ups and downs, it gradually sank to the bottom.

The afterglow hit the surface of the sea, and the waves beat out white foam, sending away a day full of scars, and also sending away a powerful person in the world.

Daoist Qingyang unleashed hundreds of years of cultivation and sword intent, burned his body in flames, and died together with the Demon Lord Mingtian, both body and spirit were destroyed.

And the primordial spirit of the demon king Mingtian also disappeared with the fire, and there is no possibility of resurrection.

Seven days later, above the Yunshan Mountain, there was the mournful sound of cranes, the long cry of green deer, and the white curtain spread all the way to the main hall of the main peak.The Yunshan disciples who came and went on the road looked sad, and all of them bowed their heads and were speechless.

Today is the seventh day of Qingyang's head, and at the same time, it is also a big day for Xiang Wanning to take over as head.

It was Xiang Wanning's idea to hold the head funeral together with the succession ceremony.In order to commemorate this respected and beloved teacher, she sent the teacher away at the same time as taking over the ceremony, which showed her determination to inherit the will of the former head.

Shang Lixing wore a solemn and simple black robe, and accompanied her around.

Yunshan, which was besieged for half a month, was not as peaceful as it seemed from the outside world.When Daoist Qingyang and Mozun were in a stalemate in the main hall, the mountain protection array was opened, and the three great vitality clashed, which affected the seven main peaks and the back mountain, causing countless palaces and houses on each peak to collapse.The flowers and trees on the mountain were eroded by the demon energy, and almost none of them survived.The back mountain is also covered with dusty crane carcasses and deer bones.

Yunshan was severely injured, nearly half of the elders in the sect were killed or injured, only Wuming Peak, Panlong Peak and other peak masters were safe and sound.

After witnessing Master Qingyang igniting himself that day, several elder peak masters felt sad for a while, and they all asked to resign from their secular duties and practice in seclusion.This kind of action is undoubtedly worse for Xiang Wanning who has just taken over as the head.After several painstaking efforts to persuade them to leave the business, they reluctantly agreed to stay in Yunshan temporarily, and leave when Xiang Wanning can independently take up the role of Yunshan Sword Sect.It's just that although people are here, their hearts have drifted away.Seeing that they couldn't preside over major events, Shang Lixing took the initiative to take all the duties on himself, and did everything from the funeral to the succession ceremony, no matter how small or small, he personally did.

Ever since Fang Jinglin came back from the East Island that day, he has been devastated and restless. Even He Qi, who always loves to make fun of him, has rarely curbed his frivolous behavior, kneeling in the group of disciples and weeping sadly.

In the main hall, representatives of many other sects came to express their condolences.Qu Baiwei was supported by Qu Kongqing and Cheng Xinran, and sat on a guest seat beside him.After he was hit by the demonic energy that day, he was unconscious for half a day before he recovered his true energy. After he learned of the heroic sacrifice of the head of Qingyang, half of his hair turned gray overnight.

Ji Qing followed behind Shang Lixing dumbly, kept his head down and said nothing, seeing Qu Kongqing winking at him, he kept avoiding him.

After the funeral was over, Shang Lixing presided over the succession ceremony in person, replacing the deceased Master Qingyang, and entrusting the Yunshan Sword Sect to Xiang Wanning.

Xiang Wanning calmly accepted the letter from the head of the sect, and restrained all emotions and emotions on the five-foot-high platform.

Seeing her standing on the high platform and raising the long sword, her eyebrows and eyes were stern, and she had the demeanor of a master, Shang Lixing thought happily: "Master, you did not choose the wrong heir..."

The Sri Lankan has passed away, but fortunately, everything will gradually get better.

After the succession ceremony, he stood in front of the railing on the second floor, looked at the dilapidated mountain scenery in front of him, sighed deeply, and asked the new head next to him: "You have been looking at me in the hall just now, do you have something to say to me?" I said?"

Xiang Wanning changed out of the complicated robe she wore when she took over as head, and put on a plain onyx linen suit.She looked at the white deer humming in the forest, and said quietly: "Wan Ning really has something in his mind that he can't understand, and he wants to discuss it with Senior Brother Shang."

"what's up?"

Xiang Wanning withdrew his gaze from looking at the mountains and forests, with a gloomy expression, and said, "Senior Brother Shang, have you ever thought about why the head of the sect still chose to die with Ming Tian when he could get away that day?"

"Do you know the reason?" Shang Lixing was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Tell me quickly."

Xiang Wanning breathed a sigh of relief, and narrated everything that happened in Yunshan in the past half month.

"On July [-]th, when Master woke up early in the morning, he felt a little weird. He not only lost his temper because of trivial matters, but also summoned ten thousand disciples for no reason, and even killed an elder on the stage. I followed For many years, he has never seen such a terrifying side of him."

Seeing Shang Lixing frowned and said nothing, she said again: "That night, the master summoned me into the main hall again. There was a magic circle in the center of the main hall. The master has calmed down a lot. The magic circle, tell me that there is the Demon Lord of the Demon Race, who has been trapped on Yunshan Mountain for 300 years, and he is about to be resurrected! It was the first time in my life that I knew that there was such a terrifying enemy on Yunshan Mountain. Later, Mozun suddenly woke up, grabbed me, and the sect leader rescued me first, and ordered me to rush out of the main hall and activate the mountain protection circle..."

Shang Lihang guessed that this should be the case, he waved his hand to show that he knew.

"Junior Brother He Qi has told me everything in more than half a month. In fact, I knew that the devil who attacked Nanling back then was trapped on Yunshan Mountain. It's just," thinking that Master Qingyang might be eroded by the devil's energy in his sea of ​​consciousness, so that he acted weirdly Impermanence, he said with some annoyance, "I just didn't expect it to come...so fast..."

Xiang Wanning stared blankly at the sky in front of him, and murmured: "Things are far from that simple. At that time, the leader told me that he had checked the sea of ​​consciousness of the Demon Lord Ming Tian, ​​and found that it was blank."

Shang Lixing's expression froze: "What?" His heart shuddered inexplicably, and he suddenly remembered that he and Bai Xuan used the soul search method together, and after searching the demon spies, they found that their sea of ​​consciousness was also blank.

What exactly does this mean?

Xiang Wanning went on to say: "Later, in the battle on East Island, the headmaster also said something strange to the demon's body before he knocked me out of the cocoon. "

Shang Lixing's eyelids twitched heavily, and said: "...What does the headmaster mean by saying this? Could it be—"

He looked at Xiang Wanning in disbelief.

Xiang Wanning closed her eyes, and said sadly: "Senior Brother Shang...do you know, in fact, there is a possibility that that Demon Lord is a fake at all!"

"He has never been resurrected! The so-called Demon Lord is just a puppet! The headmaster must have discovered something, knowing that the ordinary killing magic array can't kill him, so he decided to ignite his sword intent and die with him, cutting off the root of the disaster!"

"This——" Shang Lixing was shocked, and for a while, thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, he quickly calmed down, and asked in a deep voice: "Junior sister Xiang, don't worry, this matter, you are not worried Have you informed others?"

Xiang Wanning smiled wryly and shook his head: "No, to this day, people in Yunshan are scattered, and I can't trust anyone anymore."

Shang Lixing sighed deeply, pondered for a moment, and said sternly: "Okay, I will send someone to check it out, leave it to me, and you don't care about anything, just bring Yunshan up properly."

Xiang Wanning forced a smile: "Yes, Senior Brother Shang, the only person Wan Ning trusts most now is you..."

Shang Lixing took a deep look at her: "Junior Sister Xiang, take care."

Xiang Wanning also said: "Brother, take care of yourself too."

After Shang Lixing said a few words to her, he returned to the inner hall alone, leaving her alone space.

Most of the sect representatives who came to express their condolences had already left, and the inner hall was empty, only a few disciples and handymen were busy dismantling the hall.

He was thinking about Xiang Wanning's words just now, he hesitated in the inner hall, and remembered that those Mozu spies were captured at the foot of Yunshan, so he made up his mind.

He summoned Ji Qing and told him to stay in Yunshan for a few days to assist the new head in dealing with affairs, and then he went down to Yunshan alone to see if he could find any clues.

When you walk to the foot of the mountain and look up, everything you see is a vast expanse of whiteness, and you can't see the end of the mountain, let alone its true face in the clouds.

Yunshan once again returned to its ethereal and ethereal appearance.

Most likely because they still couldn't get the response from the gods, and their spirits were waning, most of the mortals who bowed here before were reduced by half, and only a few stubborn ones remained, still bowing their heads and kneeling.

Shang Lixing was both funny and compassionate, and reluctantly walked on the road.

Walk out more than 30 steps, bypassing a low grass.Suddenly, the sun flickered, and a black shadow flashed in front of my eyes, and disappeared into the grass beside me like a shooting star.

That figure crossed the boundary wall of thousands of shadows with him, and stayed with him day and night.For him, it is all too familiar.

Shang Lixing couldn't contain his excitement, and blurted out, "Junior Brother Xie, is that you?"
