Among the Thirteen Barriers in the northwest, the sky was full of brilliant clouds, and countless flying swords flashed through the sky. en8.
Looking up through the green branches and leaves, the glow in the sky is slightly distorted in the eyes, as if there is something isolating the outside world from the Thirteen Barriers. The lights of flying swords in the sky intersect from time to time. Although they are huge in number, they still appear orderly. They are scattered quietly and orderly in every place in the sky. Under their overlooking, there is no secret in the entire Thirteen Barriers.
These sword-flying people, regardless of gender, old or young, all have white hair, and their expressions are cold and solemn, without a trace of humanity.
Every time the sword light flashed across the sky, Yu Yue's hand holding the sword tightened.
Yun Qing was sitting under the tree, looking a little weak. She wrapped herself tightly in a black robe, and the red lotus on the corner of the robe was lifelike. She looked at the girl serving beside her and said, "Don't be nervous, they won't come down."
"...Yes." Yu Yue's hand holding the sword still didn't relax at all.
Yun Qing shook her head. Yuyue looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. She had just entered Taoism. This was her first time out of the sect when she was sent to Nanfeng Continent.
"Are you afraid?" Yun Qing saw that she couldn't relax, so he kept talking to her.
Yu Yue's eyes narrowed and she said resolutely: "Report to the Demon Lord, Yu Yue is not afraid."
Yun Qing then asked: "Aren't you afraid even if you are ambushed by the Shenyin Sect at this time?"
Yu Yue raised her head and glanced at the Shenyin Sect monks in the sky, without any hesitation: "I'm not afraid."
Yun Qing laughed, this is what the Shattering Demon Sect looks like, fearless and unscrupulous. The current situation is not optimistic. They were tricked by Xiandao before, but now they have almost unreservedly exposed the entire forward force to Xiandao's eyes. But now, both Yu Yue and the other disciples of the Demon Sect of Destruction feel almost arrogantly that there is nothing to be afraid of.
This feels good too.
"Demon Lord Huangquan has contacted others."
Clear male voices came from all directions, the air not far from Yun Qing was distorted, and a young man wearing light armor walked out of the void. His smile was bright, and the black armor reflected dazzling light.
Yun Qing nodded towards him and smiled softly: "Thank you for your hard work, Sheng Jin. How is the situation over there?"
Sheng Jin stood beside her holding the heavy sword: "Other disciples of our sect have successfully arrived at the Great Movement Formation in Jingdu, and are now rushing to Ci'an City. I would also like to thank Demon Lord Huangquan for his help. If the Demon Lord hadn't reacted quickly, Iām afraid we are all in danger now.ā
Yun Qing shook his head: "No need to thank you. It was my mistake to be attacked this time in Wuhuangmo territory. Fortunately, the large army is not damaged now, otherwise I would really have no choice but to raise my head to attack the Saint and you." The sect master apologizes."
Yu Yue said quickly: "Even the leader of the Supreme Hell Sin Demon Sect himself didn't realize that there was a direct descendant of Shenyin ambushing the Great Movement Formation. You can't be blamed for this. If you hadn't figured it out at the last moment, That person fought back, and we must have been more than scattered now..."
Yun Qing rubbed his eyebrows, still looking a little worried.
Sheng Jin also advised: "It is our incompetence that we failed to protect you. Demon Lord Huangquan, please don't blame yourself."
"I'm not seriously injured." Yun Qing signaled that they didn't need to say any more, "Let's not mention these things for now. We have to think about how to get out of the Thirteen Obstacles now. "Ya*wen*yan*ę *first* hair ""
Yun Qing pointed to the sky: "The person sitting here is Shenyinmen Jiang Kuangzi. I was injured when I crossed the Gangfeng. I don't have a high chance of winning against him directly."
Yu Yue counted on her fingers for a while and asked: "This is Jiang Kuangzi, and the southwest sea is Dong Xuanzi... Who is the one who sneaked into the Wuwu Demon Realm?"
The heavenly book in Yun Qing's soul slowly circulated: "Being able to sneak into the Wuwu Demon Realm alone, and also hiding it from the leader of the Hell Sin Demon Sect who is preparing for the Great Movement Formation, the opponent must be either Shen Xiaozi or Qing Xuzi."
"It should be Qing Xuzi. Although no one has seen Shen Xiaozi, everyone agrees that Shen Xiaozi should have been involved in the Jiu Ming Rebellion, but we have not been able to find out his true identity." Sheng Jin guessed.
"Okay, no matter who he is, we have to meet up with the rest of the people immediately. If we stay here for a moment longer, it will be more dangerous." Yun Qing stood up, and the hem of the originally folded black robe was soaked with blood, "Besides, since the Qing Dynasty Kyoshi can touch our Great Movement Formation, so the forward troops must be almost exposed. If I can't meet them in time, I'm afraid the Shenyin Sect will still have a chance to attack."
At this moment, an indifferent voice came from the sky.
"All casual cultivators will leave through the north and south gates. Those who do not want to leave can stay on their own. Within three days, we will move thirteen obstacles. Please consider carefully whether you want to leave or stay."
If my guess is correct, this person is Kuangzi Jiang. The Shenyin Sect wants to level the thirteen barriers. Firstly, it is to completely eradicate scattered forces in this area and reduce wartime variables. Secondly, Yun Qing feels that it is also related to the war between Mienfenglang and Guiling Temple. . If the natural chasm that separates the north and the south disappears, then the dispute between the human way and the demon way in the south, and the dispute between the immortal way and the Buddhist way in the north will appear on the same plane, and the two will be completely connected, and the entire Jiu Ming Rebellion will be upgraded to the South Wind Rebellion. chaos.
While sealing off the demon front in the southwest sea, setting up an ambush inside the Wuwu Demon Realm, and sparing no effort to stir up the mess in the Nanfeng Continent, the Shenyin Sect can be said to have multiple parallel and well-organized lines in the Jiu Ming Rebellion. So far, Immortal Dao has been behind the scenes for countless times, but it has never seen any losses. It must be excusable that Moling Jiange was defeated at the hands of Shenyin Sect thousands of years ago.
Nowadays, the Shenyin Sect is more prosperous than it was a thousand years ago. The ten sons of Shenyin can all take charge of their own affairs. Their cultivation is unfathomable and their intelligence is not inferior to others. It is difficult for the devil to face such an opponent.
Yun Qing tore off the hem of the blood-stained black robe and burned it clean with black flames. Now her entire robe was black, and even the red lotus could not be seen.
"The opportunity has come. Remove all the demonic symbols on your clothes and put away your weapons. Let's go find someone and go out through the southern pass."
Yun Qing spread the fluctuations of the Book of Heaven and covered the three of them, carefully covering the cause and effect. Yuyue and Shengjin protected Yun Qing in the middle, and the three of them blended in with the other casual cultivators with calm expressions, and did not look out of place.
The casual cultivating sects on the Thirteen Barriers have already been cleaned up once by the Temple of Heaven, and the remaining ones either have some background or are not worth worrying about. Among them, the Earth Fire Sect belongs to the former. Qingchen is the sect leader of Dihuo Sect, and is now the real person of Dihuo.
He was a child picked up from the mountains by the previous generation Master Dihuo. He had no father or mother. Master Dihuo raised him with one hand, and then he passed away two years ago. Qingchen felt very sad, but he quickly cheered up, took over the position of his master, and gradually managed the Dihuo Sect, which had not received many new disciples, into a sect like a monk's sect.
Although there are still two or three big cats and kittens inside the door, Qingchen, who has devoted his whole life to it, still refuses to give it up. He survived by relying on the Earth Fire Sect, and now that he died for it, he had paid off some of his karma.
Qingchen walked out of the mountain gate and looked at the immortals of Shenyinmen walking in the sky with swords. He felt that his eyes were blurry, with various lights flashing alternately, it was like a dream.
He must have had such a dream when he was young, flying in the clouds and mists, slaying demons with a sword. But later he gradually understood that the teacher he met was not a good teacher, the entrustment he entrusted was unorthodox, and no matter how good his qualifications were, they could only be delayed in this remote mountain gate. When he grew up, he never had such a dream again. He had to start shouldering the burden of the inheritance. Even if it was a heretic like the Earth Fire Sect, he was willing to sacrifice everything for it.
The world is vast, but he has lost his original passion and ambition. He just wants to guard this unknown sect until he grows old and passes away.
But now, even this smallest hope has been burned out by the war that spreads wantonly.
How can Heaven see the tiny persistence among all living beings
Qingchen couldn't help but feel a trace of self-mockery in his eyes.
"Master, Master, I..." The young disciple hesitated to say what he wanted to say behind him.
Qingchen put his hands behind his back and laughed loudly: "Run for your life quickly!"
The young disciple had already packed his luggage. As soon as he heard Qingchen's words, he immediately picked up his bag and ran down the mountain towards the pass.
Qingchen looked at his back, feeling an indescribable sadness in his heart. He suddenly remembered Qingyuan who secretly escaped from the Earth Fire Sect many years ago. At that time, he was still chasing Qingyuan, trying to persuade him to stay.
Now he knows that people who really want to leave can't stay, no matter what, because their hearts are not here. Those who really want to stay can't be driven away no matter how hard they try. Even if the place they are in will turn into a hell on earth at the next moment, they will not move even an inch. Qingchen felt that that kind of person must have roots in his heart that have penetrated into this land and cannot walk. If he really moves his position, he is afraid that his death will not be far away.
He touched his heart, and there must be a lush and prosperous plant growing there, rooted in the barren land of Dihuomen, unwilling to leave even after death.
"That's all, I really can't bear to see the myriad avenues in this world..."
Qingchen looked back at Dihuomen. He was clearly less than thirty years old, but his eyes were full of sorrow and sorrow.
After looking at it like this for a long, long time, he looked back with unfulfilled interest. He lifted up his Taoist robe, sat down on the steps in front of the door, and looked at the sky thousands of miles away with a smile. No one knew what he saw.
"Long years no see..."
A dark figure covered his clear sky. Qingyuan took a closer look and saw in front of him a girl about thirteen or fourteen years old. She was wearing a black robe. The robe only reached her knees and the hem seemed to be somewhat damaged.
There is a softness and calmness in this man's eyebrows and eyes. He can't be said to be very good-looking, but it can make people feel good about him involuntarily.
The girl smiled and said hello to him, but Qingchen couldn't remember where he had seen her. In fact, this is not Qingchen's problem. Although the monk's memory is much better than that of ordinary people, Yun Qing was trying to escape from Lu Tiantan at that time. She had used the heavenly book to cover her fate tightly. Qingchen saw it but did not stay. The impression is also normal.
"Are you...?" Qingchen quickly stood up from the ground. He glanced at the corner of his dirty robe and couldn't help but pat the dust in embarrassment. At this time, a man and a woman walked up the steps. Both of them had fierce auras and advanced cultivation. Qingchen could tell at a glance that both of them were Taoists. They followed the girl, their eyes alert, looking like they were ready to take action at any time.
Yun Qing also smiled very quietly. She said to Qingchen: "We had a chance meeting twelve years ago."
Qingchen is still a little confused.
Yun Qing raised her hand, gently lifted his forehead, and then placed her cold fingertips on his forehead, where a dark flame mark slowly appeared.
"Do you remember?"
Qingchen felt as if a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind, and he vaguely caught a vague impression.
- "If I gain enlightenment in the future, I believe this mark will be beneficial to my growth."
"Is it you!?" Qingchen said loudly, his eyes were extremely surprised, "Why haven't you changed at all in more than ten years?"
Yun Qing smiled: "It's good to remember. I have to thank the Taoist Priest for his help."
Qingchen was already in his twenties at this time. As soon as Yun Qing called him "little Taoist priest", it immediately brought back memories of his childhood. At that time, he and his fellow apprentices would laugh, play, meditate and practice together. He had never considered ten What will everyone look like in a few years
Twelve years later, he was already weather-beaten and alone, but the girl in front of him had not changed at all.
"It's been more than ten years, and you still remember what it does..." Qingchen said a little depressed.
Yun Qing calmly glanced at the cultivators of Shenyin Sect walking through the sky, and winked at Yu Yue and Sheng Jin. The two slowly disappeared, leaving only Yun Qing and Qing Chen. .
"I have always remembered my kindness ten years ago, and naturally I want to repay it today." Only then did Yun Qing explain to Qingchen sincerely.
Qingchen was startled at first by the sudden disappearance of the two people behind her, then after listening to Yun Qing's words, she quickly said: "No, no, no, my fire gate is almost gone, what else do you want to retaliate for..."
Yun Qing interrupted: "Oh, the little Taoist priest wants to preserve the Earth Fire inheritance?"
Qingchen was stunned. This girl was extremely weird both in her origins and her words. From what she meant, could she be protecting the Earth Fire Gate for him
"I can take the little Taoist priest out of here." Yun Qing said.
Qingchen forced a smile: "What are you doing if you leave... Anyway, the Earth Fire Sect will be gone in my generation."
Yun Qing shook his head: "If the little Taoist priest insists on staying here and dying, then the Earth Fire Sect will really be gone."
"So what if the Thirteen Obstacles are exceeded? Today the Shenyin Sect will come to catch up, and tomorrow there will be other holy places to catch up, and they will all start fighting. Where are there no flames of war outside? Who is there from my small sect? Do you care?"
Yun Qing sighed: "The collapse of the Holy Land is the general trend, and the rise of heroes is also the general trend. Little Taoist Priest, since it is your own sect, why do you care about others? Just practice hard and break free from this great change. Just carve out a quiet place for your own inheritance.ā
Qingchen was stunned: "Break free... and create a quiet place..."
This was something he had never thought about, and the girl said it so lightly.
"Tell me, little Taoist priest, I will do my best to repay you for what you ask for." Yun Qing never opened his eyes, but Qingchen felt a heavy and depressing momentum forcing him.
"I... want to leave here and revitalize the Earth Fire Sect!" His lips trembled, and he could hardly believe that he had said these words to a girl of unknown origin.
Yun Qing raised his head and put his fingertips on his forehead again. The black flame mark became deeper and deeper.
"Understood."
Qingchen looked at the girl in disbelief: "What are you going to do?"
Yun Qing looked relaxed: "Take you out of here."
