In Luoshu Tower, the conversation between Li He and the old man continued.
"What is fire?" Li He asked.
The old man shook his head and said: "I have no way to explain it. It's just a symbol on the stone slab. I once showed it to Qiu Zi. He had the same opinion as me. The meaning of the symbol is unknown, but it symbolizes new life and hope, so we will Its translation is fire.”
Li He said: "Then how are you sure it is related to the seventh god of Taichu?"
The old man said: "Traces. There are unique traces on its inner wall. The unique atmosphere of that trace coincides with what I have discovered in the past thousand years."
Li He pondered for a moment and asked: "In other words, fire is something similar to an embryo? Can the Seventh God be reborn with the help of fire?"
The old man shook his head and said: "I don't know, but I understand one thing. If the embryo of the Seventh God is still alive in the world, then the Six Gods will never let it go. They can even kill the real Seventh God. How is that possible? Spare its embryo.”
Li He nodded, feeling that it made sense.
Ning thought for a long time and asked another question: "What about the moon and the sun? If all the main stars related to us have left their shadows here, then the moon and sun that are closest to us and are still intact, they What does it mean?"
When Ning Jiujiu asked this question, he felt a little nervous for no reason.
He didn't know much about the moon, but he knew clearly that there was indeed an ancient kingdom of the sun in ancient times, that ancient kingdom called the Ten Eyes Kingdom. The current ruins of that kingdom were hidden in his own Golden Crow.
The old man sighed: "You have so many problems."
Li He smiled and said: "Now that Qiu Ziguan is gone, looking at the whole world, is there anyone who understands the stars better than you, old gentleman?"
The old man opened his only remaining eye and looked through the mountain patio into the dark night.
"The god of the moon... I'm not sure if it exists. Maybe it was killed before the seventh god." The old man said his guess: "As for the sun... the sun did not give birth to its own god."
Ning Jiujiu was shocked: "How is it possible?"
Ning Jiujiu knew that he had lost his composure. He pursed his lips and said nothing, looking at the old man's wrinkled smile, feeling slightly nervous.
The old man looked at him and laughed: "My feeling is indeed correct. I can indeed smell a trace of the sun in you."
"Junior got an opportunity by chance..." Ning Jiujiu wanted to explain.
The old man looked away, interrupted his words, and said: "The sun has no gods of its own... because no god can survive in the sun. If you don't believe what I say, you can wait until the night passes, and I will give you my I will lend you the mirror so that you can look closer at the sun. That is a truly desperate scene... Hey, I hope it won't be cloudy tomorrow."
Ning Changjiu was not very interested in observing the sun up close. He captured another detail from the old man's words, and he also asked his doubts: "You mean, those gods are actually the stars of their stars?" Conceived, rather than the creatures on this star gaining authority?”
"Both are possible, but I prefer the theory of alien gods." The old man smiled and said: "If you have the chance, I hope you can see Tianzang and Zhulong. They are huge, powerful and All the other creatures on this planet are completely different, and any rare ancient dragon should have descendants to reproduce, but the Six Gods cannot reproduce. Their flesh, scales, and sharp teeth may be transformed into new lives, but they cannot Really reproduce..."
Li He was also stunned.
The Six Gods of Taichu have no similar kind! They are gods, and since their birth they have followed a completely different path from the rest of life.
And these gods come from the stars outside!
"Are they the star masters of other stars?" Li He understood immediately.
The old man nodded: "According to my guess, it is like this. Our main star, metal, wood, water, fire, earth and Pluto, is the largest star in this star field besides the sun, and the other six stars have given birth to their own divine masters. , for unknown reasons, they came hundreds of millions of miles away to live on this star. And the source of their power is their own, the reflection of an entire star."
As the old man spoke slowly, a dark star map opened in front of him. On the bright star map, with the sun as the center, seven stars rotated around it.
"Is this the origin of the Six Gods of Taichu?" Li He looked at the star map and spoke slowly.
In the past, even if Qiu Ziguan always showed off his knowledge, he was not interested in it. At this moment, he finally discovered that besides the sword in his arms, there was such a huge secret hidden in the vast and distant starry sky.
The unknown is fear and passion.
No wonder Qiu Ziguan wants to ascend regardless of everything...
"What about the sun?" Ning Jiujiu returned to the original question: "The sun has no gods, so why are there records like the Golden Crow?"
The old man said: "First of all, you must understand that the Golden Crow is not the only one. The three-legged Golden Crow is a rare and powerful divine bird in the prehistoric period, but even in the myths that have been passed down to this day, there are at least nine of them. And the Golden Crow... In my opinion Come on, it is not the god of the Sun Kingdom, but a creature that has stolen the power of the sun."
"Is the Golden Crow the thief of the sun's power?" Li He wondered: "The sun has no gods, so why does it have power?"
The old man said: "Authority is not linked to gods. Even if it is the Six Gods of Taichu, authority is not necessarily something they are born with. It is more likely to be given by the stars. Otherwise, the saint would not have said the words 'entrust the law to the gods' , not to assign laws to gods."
Ning Jiujiu asked: "So, there were nine golden crows that stole the power of the sun?"
The old man said: "That may be the case, but don't look down on the thief... The power of the sun is by no means weaker than that of the other six gods, just like the moon. Although it is not as big as the other stars, it is closest to us. If the moon has it My own god, the power it can show on our planet may be more powerful than the six gods of Taichu."
Ning Jiujiu fell into deep thought.
The theory stated by this old man almost overturned his past knowledge.
The Six Gods of Taichu are the main gods conceived by six stars. There may be a seventh god on this star. The seventh god may have died and left fire. The god of the moon may also have died. The sun has no god of its own. The Golden Crow and the Ten-Eyed Kingdom The Lord may be a thief of authority.
But what do these represent
The secrets of the world are like layers of boxes. You stand in the center and unlock one. What you get is not answers, but new doubts.
Ning Jiujiu's mind immediately rolled up with other questions: Who killed the six gods in the beginning, who destroyed the stars, what is the purpose of fire, and where is the power of the sun scattered... Also, these are related to the unseemly. What connection
Ning Jiujiu's thoughts fell into doubts, and the old man suddenly smiled and said something that had no beginning or end: "Actually, I don't like the current moon very much."
"Why?" Li He and Ning Changjiu asked in unison.
The old man said: "Because the moon is different from what I first saw... Thousands of years ago it was very beautiful, like a snow-white, flawless mirror, but now it is getting uglier and uglier."
Getting uglier
How could the moon become ugly
Ning Changjiu was about to ask, but suddenly, light fell from the center of the mountain.
The lunar and star eclipses ended together.
…
…
On a red mountain peak, Siming withdrew her sword energy that was richer than the night.
The starlight fell on her eyebrows, which were like sculptures carved by gods, lighting up her clear ice eyes.
She used the black sword to cut open the chest of the giant beast, and the sword tip pierced the demonic core like a string of candied haws.
She handed the demon pill to Lu Marian and said, "Eat."
Lu Marry wanted to take the sword hilt she handed over, but Si Ming gently withdrew his hand.
"Huh?" Lu Marian was slightly confused.
The corners of Siming's lips raised, and the moonlight in her icy eyes turned into a smile. She said softly, "Come, sister, feed you."
Lu Marry frowned slightly, bit her lip and said, "What kind of words are you talking about? Do you think I'm a little girl?"
Siming smiled and said, "Compared to me, aren't you just a little girl?"
Lu Marian didn't know how to refute, so she quoted a fallacy that Ning Jiujiu said that she had scorned: "Young appearance means you will always be young. We are not much different."
Siming smiled, handed the sword to Lu Marian, and said: "Okay, eat more, and reach the peak of Ziting in the shortest time, otherwise you will have no chance of living."
Lu Marian hummed, she bit the demon pill, put it in her mouth, melted the rich spiritual power in it, chewed it up and swallowed it.
Such treasures of heaven and earth will be priceless and unmarketable in five hundred years.
This sister is really nice...
It's a pity that after Luo Shu was released, she would never be able to see her again.
"It would be nice to see you again in the future." Lu Marian said sincerely.
Lu Marian hopes that she can have a good ending in this period of history. In this way, she may be the ancestor of a certain sect today. It may not be a problem to live to the present at the peak of the Five Paths. After she gets out, she There is still a chance to meet her.
Although she definitely doesn't know herself in reality.
Lu Marry sighed quietly.
Siming walked up to her and said, "You are still young and highly talented. As long as you live, you will always meet again in life."
Although Si Ming said this, she knew in her heart that they were not from the same world at all. Her kindness to her was firstly a repayment for her life-saving grace, and secondly, she really wanted to accept a disciple, so she looked at her like Treat her like your own sister.
She also knew that these were just her own wishful thinking. The lifelike person in front of her might no longer exist. What her softness poured into her was just an illusory and beautiful shadow.
Lu Marion hummed and walked gently beside her.
This strange phenomenon in the world has passed. She went to many places and searched all over Chiyun Mountain, but still could not find any trace of Ning Jiujiu.
Siming put the black sword behind him.
She said: "Let's go to Xuanwu Lake to rest for a while. I'll teach you the last move of the sword technique by the way."
"Okay." Lu Marian nodded lightly.
Along the way, Siming taught her many swordsmanship techniques, almost all of them.
They came to Xuanwu Lake together.
The eclipse of stars and moon has ended, the stars in the sky are clear, and the gentle waves are like undulating silk, gently undulating in the sea outside the continuous barren mountains.
The starlight ripples in the sea water, the fluorescence is dim, the gentle waves sometimes push onto the beach, and the sea hits your face, writing the rare silence in the chaotic era.
This is the big lake behind Chiyun Mountain, as vast as the sea.
This mountain peak was originally the territory of the dragon bearer. After the dragon bearer died, the place truly fell into desolation.
Siming walked to the lakeside, and her jade feet gently slipped out of her embroidered shoes. Her delicate, white and jade-like feet fell on the moist and soft beach. The clear lake water surged up and covered the instep of her feet. The toes that are as smooth as jade are like pearls soaked in the lake water.
Her silver hair was scattered, her black robe was blowing in the wind, and she walked slowly towards the lake.
The lake water gradually covered her ankles. She turned around and looked at Lu Married. She smiled softly and said, "Come here and I'll teach you the final sword technique."
Lu Marry also walked over.
She stepped onto the soft and slightly tidal beach, leaned down, and gently took off her embroidered shoes. Her right arm was slightly bent, holding the embroidered shoes, while her left hand gently lifted up her snow-white skirt. Her long hair fell from her left shoulder. Drooping, softly draped on the chest, the beautiful blue hair reflects the moonlight.
She twisted her waist and threw her shoes away from the lake. Then she held some skirts in her hands, her bare feet flowing through the lake, and walked slowly to Siming's side.
Siming looked at her appearance and sighed softly again: "You shouldn't have been born in this era."
Lu Marian said: "Senior, too."
Siming smiled and said nothing.
Lu Marian looked at her silver hair, which was almost the same color as the moonlight, and asked, "Is Senior really a human?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Siming's words were cold.
Lu Marry explained: "I'm just curious, Senior Xue Ci looks more like the legendary elves."
Siming was silent for a while and said: "I am not an elf, I am a god."
Lu Yueyou was slightly startled, but she soon realized that among the five peaks, which one does not claim to be a god? This senior's realm is very close to the peak of the Five Paths.
"Well, Xue Ci is a fairy sister." Lu Jiaoyue smiled softly.
Siming said: "Then you are the fairy sister."
Lu Marion shook her head gently, "I am far inferior to you now."
Siming nodded and said: "It's really incomparable. A little fairy like you lost her virginity at such a young age. I'm different from you. I've still had the red pill for thousands of years, but I'm much more reserved than you."
Although they were both women, Lu Marian still felt a little awkward when talking about this. She raised her head and did not want to defend Ning Jiujiu. She asked curiously: "Senior, with such a beautiful country and fragrant beauty, your master … You didn’t even take your red pill?”
Siming thought for a moment and said, "I find this strange too."
Lu Marry thought for a moment and came to a conclusion, "Either there is something wrong with your master, or he is really... worse than a beast."
Siming's smile became even brighter and he said, "Yes, he is just inferior to a beast."
Lu Marry couldn't help but ask again: "Then how does he treat you on weekdays?"
Siming said: "How else can we treat him? How would a man who is worse than a beast treat his slave?"
Lu Marry thought for a moment about the things she had heard, and immediately gritted her teeth, thinking that if that person died, she would not be able to pursue him, but if that person lived to her own time, she would definitely avenge Sister Xue Ci!
"Is there really no solution to this slave pattern?" Lu Jiayou asked reluctantly.
Siming sighed: "Only he can figure it out."
Lu Marian said immediately: "Then you must not be deceived by his talk about solving the slave pattern! You finally escaped, and you must not meet him again in the future!"
"Well, I know." Siming said this, but she was thinking about this incident. She went to Nanzhou to see him again, to see his beloved wife, and to let him know about the backyard. The taste of fire.
Siming stepped on the soft sand and gently washed away the water with his toes.
"Okay, don't waste time. You are looking for your husband, and I am going to a distant place. Take your time, and I will give you the final swordsmanship." Siming said.
Lu Marian has been a teacher at Tianku Peak for a long time, and her understanding of respecting teachers is very positive. Now this senior Xue Ci is really her mentor, so whenever she teaches her skills, her attitude is very correct, like a rigorous and studious disciple. This attitude is completely different from when Ning Jiujiu taught her skills. .
Outside Chiyun Mountain, in Xuanwu Lake, it was as if the lake god suddenly awakened and rolled up thousands of waves of snow.
The sword energy that filled the sky covered the bright starry sky, and the lake was like frost and snow, a vast expanse of white.
Lu Jiayou's sword spirit is in perfect harmony, and his absorption of sword moves is also natural.
Even Siming was a little amazed at Lu Yuejian's talent.
The last person she saw with such a talented and intelligent person was Ning Changchun.
Of course, although they are both geniuses, their personalities are completely opposite. Although the young man Ning Jiujiu is okay and doesn't use Nu Wen to do too many things, he always makes people feel hateful. This sister named Lu is gentle and sweet, and even though I have always been cold-minded, I like her very much.
"I have lived for a thousand years, and your talent is so high that even I find it rare." After Si Ming finished teaching the swordsmanship, he couldn't help but praise softly.
Lu Marry waded through the cold lake with her and walked towards the beach. She also smiled and said, "I can't compare to Senior Xue Ci in everything."
Siming looked at her soft cheeks and smiled: "Don't let your hateful husband do bad things with such a sweet mouth."
Lu Marian groped her lips subconsciously. She didn't know what she thought of. Her cheeks turned red and she whispered, "How could that be?"
"Do you understand?" Siming was confused.
"I don't understand." Lu Marry immediately blinked innocently.
Siming smiled.
She walked to the shore, hesitated for a moment, and then gently put on her shoes, covering her jade-like feet.
Lu Marianjian also put on her shoes. She straightened her clothes and dried the wet areas with sword fire.
Siming's eyes wandered for a while at the bulging front of her clothes, his ice eyes were faint, and he hesitated to speak.
Lu Marry raised her head and said, "Senior, what's wrong?"
"It's okay." Siming said, "The seven techniques and three sword techniques I taught you earlier are real divine techniques. You must not teach them to anyone, not even your husband."
Lu Marian nodded and said, "Just listen to the seniors."
Siming stood there and looked at her with a smile for a while. Suddenly, she took off the demon fox mask from her waist, handed the mask to her, and said: "You are so beautiful, but your realm is not high enough. It's very difficult to be alone outside." It's dangerous. Use this mask to cover your face, you can save a lot of trouble, and your... well, it's best to hide it a little bit, it's not good if it's too conspicuous. "
Lu Marry touched the mask lightly with her fingertips, her eyes flashed. This time she was not embarrassed by Siming's slightly teasing words, but asked: "Senior, are you leaving?"
Siming nodded: "It's almost time, I still have important things to do."
Lu Marian asked: "Where are you going?"
Siming pointed to the sky and said: "My Tao realm has been restored, and I am going to ascend and leave."
"Ascension?" Lu Marian's face changed drastically, and she blurted out: "Don't ascend!"
"What?" Siming was confused.
Lu Marian grabbed her hand that was trying to carve the sky monument and said seriously: "Don't ascend! You will die!"
Siming said: "What do you know about your level?"
Lu Marry said quickly: "This is what the saint said! It's the saint they call him, and... And after I got here, I witnessed the death of an ascendant who was at the peak of the Five Paths, and my husband and I were separated because of this."
She spoke very quickly and briefly told the story of the dragon bearer.
Siming's expression was slightly solemn. After hearing this, she was silent for a while and said, "Maybe his sky monument is wrong."
Lu Marian said: "But does the senior one have to be right?"
Siming nodded proudly.
She was once a priest of the Kingdom of God, and she was extremely confident in her own heavenly monument.
Lu Married said worriedly: "The dragon bearer also felt that he was right and could never make a mistake, but he died in the end... He died together with his heavenly monument. I feel that there is no way to fly out of this world. Its answer is not ascension.”
Siming frowned slightly and asked: "Answer? What answer? Isn't the only answer that heaven and earth can give to a cultivator is to ascend?"
Lu Marry shook her head vigorously: "No, the ascended ones may all be dead, and..."
She hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to say: "And this world, it is not the real world!"
Siming's expression was shocked. She stared at Lu Jianwen with burning eyes and said, "What did you say?"
Lu Marian looked into her eyes, and it was understandable that she was shocked. She said seriously: "Senior, although this may subvert your knowledge, I still decided to tell you... In fact, the world we live in now is not a real world. In this world, we are in a book, and that book is Luoshu, which records thousands of years of history. Everything we see happened five hundred years ago. The outside world is not an immortal palace at all. , but the world five hundred years later, but the people here are all fake, created by Luo Shu... Senior, the same is true for you. How can fake people ascend?"
Siming looked at her with an expression of disbelief on his beautiful face.
"You..." Siming hesitated to speak.
Lu Marian stared into her eyes and promised seriously: "Senior Xue Ci, you may think I am crazy, but I can guarantee with my life that this is true. I can't watch you die..."
Siming looked into her eyes.
Watched quietly for a long time.
"Senior... still don't believe me?" Lu Jiayou pursed her lips and looked nervous.
But what surprised her was that Xue Ci's focus was not on the false world.
She looked at herself and said in a cold voice: "You said your surname was Lu earlier, so... what is your full name?"
Lu Marion didn't know why she asked this, so she replied seriously: "Junior Lu Marry, Marry Marry."
