Zhu Yu. 『Elegant*Wen*Words*Emotion*First*Posted』

Only the Immortals and Demons will be called Venerable after entering the Tao, and the Tao name is Wuxia. Yun Qing can only think of Zhu Yu, the Demon Sect of Destruction. When she met Zhu Wuxia at the beginning of the year, Yun Qing had not yet practiced Taoism and did not understand the division of realms very well. But judging from the conversation between the two people now, Zhu Yu was considered to be at the top of the Tao realm.

Yun Qing was afraid that Amang would make a fuss, so he put him into a square cup, then carefully restrained his breath and listened.

"Why did she come to Nanfeng this time?" Bi Fang seemed to have some doubts. After all, the devil's path was too far away from here.

Han Sheng shook his head and said, "I don't know. She suddenly broke into my city lord's mansion a few days ago and said that she wanted to pick a date to fight. I don't know what she thought."

Bi Fang sneered: "Oh, you even broke into the city lord's mansion by her."

"Master Wuxia's cultivation is unfathomable. You will know it when you see him tomorrow." Han Sheng didn't seem to care about any offense and always seemed casual and friendly.

Bi Fang fluttered his wings and flew up: "I have heard that she is a lunatic who practices the path of destruction and is the number one rookie in the magic path today. I don't mean to underestimate her. I just think your temper has calmed down a lot."

"After thousands of years, people will always change." Han Sheng said, the vicissitudes of life in his tone blended with the desolation of this ancient battlefield.

"Hahaha, yes, the man who used to kill the immortals with a sword is no longer there. Now there is only one coward who betrayed the sect and surrendered to Shenyin." Bifang's laughter was as sharp and harsh as its chirping.

"You came to me just to talk about these things?" Han Sheng's expression was still calm.

"Who said I came to find you?" Bifang retorted, "I came to find something."

"Oh, I've heard a little bit about this." Although Han Sheng has lived in a remote and desolate place for a long time, he is still very well-informed. "Isn't this war also to find that thing?"

"I don't know what the saints are thinking." Bi Fang wandered around in a circle boredly, then swooped down towards Han Sheng.

The scorching wind and the blazing fire couldn't get close to Han Sheng, and he was protected by invisible sword energy: "I heard that you lost your things yourself, and now you rely on the saint who just woke up to clean up the mess for you. .”

Bi Fang saw that he was really bored and stopped making trouble: "What do you mean we lost it ourselves? That thing was obviously lost under the nose of the saint, but now it is blamed on us."

"..." Han Sheng was silent for a while, then frowned and said, "You are still as outspoken as before. en8."

Bi Fang didn't care at all when he said bad things about his saint: "If you see someone suspicious, remember to help me catch her first. I think she ran this way."

Han Sheng still frowned: "I have vowed not to get involved in disputes between holy lands."

"Will you accept the private work from the head office?" Bi Fang didn't take it at all, "That's it, we'll meet again if we have the chance."

Han Sheng hesitated to speak, but finally watched it fly towards the south. Bi Fang was as brainless as ever. It didn't explain what the person who stole the thing looked like, and it didn't explain how to contact it if it caught the person. This left Han Sheng with nowhere to start.

After a long time, he sighed and turned around to leave the ancient battlefield. Yun Qing looked at his upright back and felt that this man really had a lot of stories. If anyone could really live to become a history book, he must be this kind of person. It's a pity that he and Han Linlin don't seem to have a close relationship, otherwise she could get more information from Han Linlin.

Yun Qing took Amang out of the square inch cup and took him deep into the ancient battlefield.

The scenery here is strange and strange, with no one around, the stars in the distant sky are bright, and the vast wilderness is full of life. Being in such an open and unreal environment makes people suddenly aware of their own insignificance and the vastness of the world.

The ground was uneven, with inexplicable deep marks, and the surrounding hostility and sword intent made it difficult for the two of them to walk.

Yun Qing was affected by the hostility and sword energy left here. He had to work hard to stabilize his state of mind, and the movement of his true energy was quite stagnant. But Amang was less affected by these things. He just couldn't walk on this broken road, and he stumbled along the way. Therefore, Yun Qing must not only stick to his heart and circulate his Qi as peacefully as possible, but also pay attention to Amang. If he accidentally fell into a pit, Yun Qing would have to work harder.

"Dong dong... dong dong..."

An extremely small voice came into Yun Qing's ears. At first she thought it was because the surroundings were too quiet and the heartbeat was amplified, but when she listened carefully she found that the heartbeat-like sound was far away.

Yun Qing stopped and grabbed Amang: "Shh."

Aman stood there and didn't dare to make a sound. Yun Qing listened carefully, and there was indeed a strange sound that came to her ears very clearly.

The surrounding wind was roaring, and the sound of howling ghosts and wolves was heard when passing through the strangely shaped rocks, but this small sound similar to the heartbeat was not covered by these at all, and spread very subtly in the wind. Yun Qing had an indescribable feeling, as if he was inside the body of a huge creature and could hear the sound of blood bursting out of its heart from a distance.

Could it be that there are still living things in this ancient battlefield

As soon as this idea came up, Yun Qing couldn't stop thinking about it.

There is murderous intention in the place of birth, and there is business in killing. This is a saying often said in the monastic community, and is generally used to warn those who are new to the path. The meaning of this sentence is "When you are prosperous, then you have to be careful about the murderous intentions lurking in the dark. Don't be discouraged when you are surrounded by dangers from all sides. At this time, there is often a glimmer of hope."

It is recorded in the "Huangdi Yinfu Jing" that "the living is the root of death, and the dead are the root of life." Life and death are in a constant cycle of balance. There is no place where there is no life after death, and there is no place where there is no death. Therefore, real "desperate situations" and "death places" often do not exist. This may be the case in the ancient battlefield.

Yun Qing felt that perhaps after a long period of time, the law of heaven finally gradually balanced the death in this part of the area, and then... living creatures were born from the dead. It’s really hard to imagine what kind of existence would be born from such a place.

Yun Qing pushed Amang and motioned him to move forward. Since he couldn't imagine it, he should witness it with his own eyes. Maybe he could also gain some insight into the truth of life and death.

She did not hesitate to move forward despite the violent anger and raging sword energy, listening carefully to the sound and walking towards the north. Unknowingly, she had walked through most of the ancient battlefield, but she still didn't see anything except the violent energy and sword energy, and the strange-shaped stones.

"There are not even five-color stones." Yun Qing sighed, feeling helpless.

The five-color stone was her original purpose. It was originally thought that this was the place where the war was most intense. If the Great Movement Formation was destroyed in the Battle of Heaven, the five-color stones would probably be lost here, but now it seems that there are still many uncertain factors affecting it.

First of all, the wind direction is complicated when approaching the Gangfeng belt. Who knows where the wind blew during the war? It would be fine if it went south, but if it went north, wouldn't all the debris from the Great Movement Formation fall into the sea? Secondly, even if it really blows south, it will fall into the ancient battlefield, but it will take thousands of years for the wind to blow, and the five-color stones have long been buried deep underground under the dust cover of thousands of years.

Yun Qing has a headache. The five-color stone is the key to repairing the entire teleportation array. She can completely master the construction method of the Great Teleportation Array with the help of the Heavenly Book, but without the materials, it is just empty talk.

The problem has arisen, and finding a solution is the key, so Yun Qing did not stop and continued walking towards the depths of the ancient battlefield. If the damage to the Great Teleportation Formation was not severe, she should still have hope of filling it with inferior materials.

But it didn't take long for Yun Qing's hypothesis to be dismissed.

From a distance, the ruins of the Great Movement Formation look like a stone forest, with more than thirty stone pillars as big as mountains standing on the coast. Many of these five-color stone pillars are tilted, scarred, and their color has long faded. This stone is somewhat shark-grey, and its brilliance is restrained under the starry sky. The formation patterns on it are still as delicate as ever, and have not been damaged by wind and waves for thousands of years. This shows how precious its material is. Most of the base, which was made entirely of five-color stones, was sunk into the ground, and the extent of the damage could not be seen at all.

Yun Qing observed it carefully for a while and found that the entire Great Movement Array had changed from lying flat to standing upright, and more than half of it was still sunk into the ground. It looked completely beyond repair by humans. There should have been forty-seven stone pillars, but now there are more than a dozen missing, and I don’t know where they are. The stone pillars are also made of special materials, and it is impossible to make so many in one go.

Thousands of years ago, what kind of powerful force overturned such a huge and solid Great Teleportation Formation in one breath.

When we reached this boundary, we could hear the sound of waves crashing against the cliffs very clearly. But Yun Qing can't go forward for the time being, because the coast where the Great Movement Array is located is already on the edge of the Gangfeng Belt. Thousands of years ago, because of the protection of the Great Movement Array, the danger of Gangfeng was still small, but now the Great Movement Array is Now that it's like that, Yun Qing can't expect anything from it.

The strange heartbeat sounded vaguely nearby, but it sounded as if it was already very close.

"You stay here."

Yun Qing warned Aman, and he stood obediently, watching Yun Qing step by step towards the ruins of the Great Movement Array.

The further he walked towards the place where the Great Movement Formation was, the more depressed he felt. Yun Qing was recovering from his injuries. He had been exposed to the strong hostility and sword energy all night, and his body could not bear it. But she still chose to move forward step by step, wanting to see the thing that was born from death.

She is somewhat obsessed with it.

If it is said that one is born from the extreme of death, then why is she not the same? The bones of all the monsters were buried in the Yaoque Tower, and there was no living thing. But she walked out of the endless road of bones, and walked out of the legendary place of eternal exile.

Yun Qing has no concept of "past" in her mind since she became conscious, and her memory is completely empty. She has always relied on impersonal heavenly books to obtain all knowledge related to the world, and gradually uses these pure knowledge without emotion. Fill the heart.

In a way, she is becoming another living book rather than a real flesh-and-blood person.

But now, even though she knew there was danger, she still wanted to see the thing with a fate similar to her own.

She gritted her teeth and moved forward. The strong wind cut the exposed skin, and her body gradually began to be covered with scars. There was a strange thirst in her heart that broke away from the control of the Book of Heaven.

Finally, Yun Qing stepped onto the towering Great Movement Array. She was at the end of the vast continent, at the forefront of the endless waves, and at the bottom of thousands of stars, standing small but firmly.

But the place where the heartbeat sounded was empty.
