Hua Qiangu came out of the Immortal Pavilion, still in the mist. It was unbelievable that she actually relied on a few radishes to ask the famous Master of the Immortal Pavilion about how to break through the Shushan barrier.
"Stop thinking about it. Instead of thinking about these things, it's better to think about going up the mountain to become a disciple."
It has to be said that the child of destiny has a lot of luck. In addition, he is the last god in this world. The soul in the parasitic white hair has been well rested. At least, the collapsed soul has been temporarily stabilized. .
On the second day, Hua Qiangu finally arrived at Shushan.
The journey up the mountain was very smooth, so smooth that Hua Qiangu was a little scared. Because she had never climbed such a dead mountain before. Not only was there no sound at all, but even the air was filled with a sense of depression that was so low that it made people breathless.
In such an environment, let alone people, not even a bird can be seen.
"White-haired brother, I don't know why, but I always have a vague premonition!"
As if sensing some bad aura, Hua Qiangu's face turned pale.
The soul residing in the white hair immediately dispersed its consciousness and telepathy. Sure enough, as expected, at this moment, the entire Shu Mountain had become a dead mountain, without any breath of life at all.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The soul manifested and landed in front of Hua Qiangu: "Let's go." As he spoke, he was about to move forward, but then he seemed to think of something. He turned around and said to Hua Qiangu: "By the way, I have a name. My name is Jiang Chen, not Baifa."
"oh."
Hua Qiangu responded and quickly followed Jiang Chen, one person and one soul, heading towards the mountain. Soon, they came to the legendary Shushan Sword Sect. However, what was waiting for them was not the fairy family that people longed for. The holy realm is the most terrifying Shura killing field.
Hua Qiangu's face suddenly turned pale. She had seen many bloody and terrifying scenes, but none of them was like this hell on earth!
Countless corpses lay scattered on the ground, all dressed in Taoist uniforms, old and young, at least hundreds of people. There were stumps and broken arms everywhere, stained with blood, and it was extremely tragic.
Jiang Chen glanced over and immediately discovered that there were basically no signs of fighting around him. Most of these people were killed with one move and were slaughtered one after another.
Hua Qiangu was so frightened that she fell to the ground. While vomiting, she tried to crawl further with her limbs, but she heard something vaguely. Although it was faint, it was clear.
She forced herself to turn her head, and saw an old man with white hair and beard on top of a pile of corpses. One of his hands was torn off, and there was a big hole in the center of his chest, which was completely penetrated. His heart and lungs were taken out, and there was still something left. There is still a faint breath.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen quickly condensed a stream of creation energy and crossed over to intercept the old man's vitality. He then formed a seal with his hands and slowly moved the old man into the air, finally landing in front of him.
"Grandpa... you... how are you?" Hua Qiangu had never seen such a human tragedy, and her nose was so sore that she almost shed tears.
The old man closed his eyes tightly, with two bloody tears on his face. Hearing Hua Qiangu's voice, the old man slowly opened his eyes and said, "You are..."
Hua Qiangu was trembling so much: "I...I am Hua Qiangu...according to the teachings of Taoist Master Qingxu, I came here to become a disciple and seek enlightenment. What on earth happened here...?"
"I am Qingxu, but it is a pity that due to my incompetence, all the people in Shushan were destroyed... Now I am afraid that I will not be able to take in the little benefactor..."
"Taoist Master Qingxu, don't say that. Why is this place like this? Is it a sect dispute? Or is it a monster? How could you be so cruel and kill so many people! I... Can I do something? How are your injuries? manage?"
Hua Qiangu's face was full of sorrow, and he suddenly looked at Jiang Chen and said, "Brother Jiang, please help to save Taoist Master Qingxu!"
"Don't bother... this fellow Taoist!"
Qingxu struggled, shook his hand, and said with a bitter smile: "Pindao's inner elixir has been completely destroyed and his vitality has been lost. Without the support of his fellow Taoists, I am afraid that Pindao will not be able to last much longer. It's just that Pindao has no eyesight and did not see. Yunyi, the first disciple, has already entered the devil's path! In order to seize the ancient artifact, he tied the heavenly chain and cooperated with the monsters in the devil world, causing the thousand-year-old foundation of Shushan to be almost destroyed."
After a pause, he looked at Jiang Chen and said, "How did fellow Taoist... come up to the mountain? The evil barrier cast a spell around it, which ordinary magicians can't undo at all. The poor Taoist has concentrated his energy for a day and a night , the message can never be sent outside."
"It's all thanks to Xiao Gu."
Jiang Chen smiled bitterly and said, "You should be able to tell that my current state is not much better than yours. It was Xiaogu who found Lord Yiwu and he gave Xiaogu a drop of heavenly water so that we could go up the mountain smoothly."
After hearing this, Qingxu pondered for a moment, and finally made up his mind, saying: "Well, now I have no choice. This fellow Taoist, on the 13th of next month, I also ask you to attend the group meeting at Kunlun Yaochi on my behalf." Immortal Banquet, please help me inform all the immortal families about the slaughter of Shushan and the seizure of the Heavenly Chain. Now the six realms are in chaos, many enchantment passages in the human world have been opened, and demons and monsters have appeared. I hope other immortal families can guard the other few. It is an ancient artifact, otherwise once the demon god is born, the whole world will be in ruins, and there will be no way to suppress it."
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Now that his soul has been stabilized, the next step is to plan to reshape his body. Maybe he can succeed before the banquet of the immortals in Yaochi. By then, he wants to go to the banquet and get a glimpse of the reality of the cultivation world.
"I'll leave everything to the tour guide."
Taoist Master Qingxu glanced at Jiang Chen for the last time, then looked at Hua Qiangu, and said: "Although the disciples in the sect suffered heavy casualties, Shushan has not been destroyed. Xiaogu, I will temporarily pass you on as the head of Shushan. When the time comes, you will At the banquet of the Immortals, I issued an order from Shu Mountain to gather all the disciples from Shu Mountain outside to return to the mountain, reorganize the sect, and regain the Heavenly Chain."
"Me? I..." Hua Qiangu was shocked and faltered.
"It's okay, I'm just taking over for the time being. If you don't want to, you can pass the position of leader to other disciples in my sect. My second disciple Yunyin is a worthy candidate."
Hua Qiangu nodded: "I will tell him to retrieve the sky chain and clean up the door."
Old Taoist Qingxu nodded happily, and then placed a hand seal between Hua Qiangu's eyebrows, and the leader's mark flashed away. Hua Qiangu only felt the surging vitality and inner strength pouring into his body from the center of his eyebrows.
"Taoist Priest Qingxu..."
"Pindao teaches you the remaining Taoism, which can be regarded as a small thank you."
"Teacher, master..."
Hua Qiangu knelt down and was about to kowtow. Did he mean that he was willing to accept him as his disciple
"Almsgiver, please get up quickly. I am already a dying man. I can't teach you anything anymore. You might as well join another Master and find a place to go. The world is so big, and in the immortal world, there is nothing that can last forever. If you can get a son to marry, Granted, it is a great blessing to be born. It is not in vain that you and I share our fate at this time and place."
"Are you looking for another master?" Hua Qiangu asked in surprise.
"Yes, Changliu Shangxian, Bing Lian Hengshuang Bai Zihua, is now the person with the highest Taoism in the immortal world. I will entrust you to him, but I don't know if he is very strict and never accepts disciples. Will he sell himself into poverty this time? Tao has such a face. In addition, I will also inform him of other important matters and ask him to help Pindao sort out the mess."
As he spoke, Hua Qiangu saw that Qingxu was mumbling words, and one character after another came out of his mouth and floated into the sound-transmitting snail. He didn't know what he said.
Finally, the tail end of the sound transmission spiral was slightly red.
"Donor, maybe you can see Gong Yu on my waist now?"
Only then did Hua Qiangu see the pure white feather without any trace of blood, but it was clearly not there just now. Could it be that he also had a little bit of magic power
"I saw it." Hua Qiangu said honestly.
"Take it off and keep it for safekeeping. This is the master's token. In addition, under the incense burner shrine in the main hall, there are two secret books. One is the key and essence of my Shushan Taoism. I leave it to you to keep, as you wish. Pass it on to the next head, a book called The Complete Book of Six Realms written by Pindao, and give it to fellow Taoist friends!"
While speaking, Qingxu turned to look at Jiang Chen.
"this... ... .."
The script is wrong. Wouldn't it be appropriate to give both copies to Hua Qiangu? Why did you get a share of the pie? Could it be said that this is the advantage of hanging out with the heroine? Jiang Chen was thinking in his heart, but he responded solemnly on his face: "Fellow Taoist, please rest assured, I will definitely help you do what you asked me to do!"
"You go! Kunlun Mountain, the banquet of immortals, find Bai Zihua!"
Taoist Master Qingxu shouted, as if to impress the two of them, but this loud shout also exhausted the remaining resentment he had, and he died on the spot.
Hua Qiangu bowed twice, and suddenly it started to rain, washing away the blood all over her body.
The master did not worship him, nor was he a disciple of Shushan, but he became the leader of Shushan inexplicably. This experience was so bizarre that it made people feel a little frightened.
According to Qingxu's will, she took the two secret books, held one for herself, and handed the other to Jiang Chen, saying, "Brother Jiang, let's go!"
"Let's go."
Jiang Chen did not pick up the Complete Book of Six Realms, but turned into a wisp of smoke and attached to the long hair in front of Hua Qiangu's forehead. In an instant, the long hair turned from dark to white.
Seeing this, Hua Qiangu had no choice but to put both books in her arms, leave Shushan, and embark on the road to Kunlun Mountain.
Shushan is far away from Kunlun, and the journey is long and boring. Jiang Chen taught Hua Qiangu a set of basic Qi refining techniques to allow her to refine the magic power taught to her by Qingxu and consolidate her foundation.
After traveling for several days, Hua Qiangu met a person on this day, a scholar named "Dongfang Yuqing".
This Dongfang Yuqing is not very outstanding in appearance, but his temperament is extraordinary. He has a pair of phoenix eyes and a smiling face. He is quiet, elegant, and spotless. He seems to have a special charm that easily makes people dependent.
Hua Qiangu, a little girl, couldn't resist. Without much effort, she made friends with Dongfang Yuqing and even told her that she was going to Kunlun Mountain.
"What are you doing in Kunlun Mountain?"
Dongfang Yuqing said in surprise: "It's very dangerous there!"
Living among the white hair, Jiang Chen couldn't help but shake his head. We, the host girl, still need more experience. With such an innocent temper, I'm afraid we will be deceived and sold, and we have to help others pay.
"I was entrusted by Taoist Priest Qingxu, the leader of Shushan Mountain, to attend the banquet of immortals."
Hua Qiangu responded subconsciously. She didn't react until the words came out of her mouth. Although she didn't regret it, she was a little strange. Why did she say this to a young scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam
"Feast of Immortals?"
Dongfang Yuqing asked with curiosity on his face: "You said you were entrusted by the head of Shushan, why didn't he go by himself? Could it be that something happened on Shushan?"
"Shu Mountain was destroyed. Before his death, Taoist Master Qingxu asked me to bring a message to the Immortals' Banquet."
"Shu Mountain was destroyed? Has it already started?" Dongfang Yuqing murmured to himself, frowning for a long time, and then asked again: "What happened next? The magic weapon guarded by Shu Mountain should be a heavenly chain, have you saved it? "
"Hey, this kid knows a lot."
Seeing that Hua Qiangu's boss was about to be tricked out, Jiang Chen quickly sent a message to Hua Qiangu with some ill intentions: "It's really unbelievable that a mere scholar knows so many things about the immortal world. It’s so simple!”
Hearing Jiang Chen's voice, Hua Qiangu couldn't help but be stunned. Then, she stared at Dongfang Yuqing in front of her with a face full of surprise: "How do you know how to tie the sky chain?"
A flash of surprise quietly flashed in Dongfang Yuqing's eyes, but the expression on his face did not change at all. He smiled and said: "Of course I know, because I have read poetry and books since I was a child, and I know the history of the Six Realms well. Is it possible that you Do you think I’m one of those bookworms who only know the Four Books and Five Classics?”
"interesting."
Jiang Chen immediately encouraged Hua Qiangu and said, "Ask him if he knows about Changliu Shangxian Baizi's paintings?"
Hearing this, Hua Qiangu's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "Little scholar, since you are so powerful, do you know this person named Changliu Shangxian Baizi Hua?"
"Who are you talking about?"
Dongfang Yuqing couldn't help but narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Obviously, he was not in a calm mood when he heard the name of his father-killing enemy.
Hua Qiangu didn't pay that much attention. She just pretended that he didn't hear clearly and said immediately: "I'm talking about Changliu Shangxian Baizi Hua. Before his death, Taoist Master Qingxu asked me to worship him as my teacher."
"is that so?"
Dongfang Yuqing smiled and said: "When it comes to other people, maybe I really don't know, but when it comes to Changliu Shangxian Baizi's paintings, I know it very well. As a practitioner, from the first time I know it to the time I listen to it, I know it very well. Then you can break your hopes, know the subtleties, examine your heart, ascend to the hall, give up and return to heaven, and then you can ascend to become an immortal. Immortals are also divided into three, six or nine levels. The ordinary flying immortals and spiritual immortals are not real immortals. Only Xuanhua Feitian can be regarded as a true immortal, but he is only a second-class immortal. Only by cultivating the ninth level of heaven can he ascend to the sky and become a superior immortal."
"Wow!"
Hua Qiangu said in surprise: "Doesn't that mean that this Changliu Shangxian Baizi Hua is very powerful?" But then, she couldn't help but said with a bit of uneasiness: "But, he has become an immortal, and he still cares about it?" In this secular world, will you still accept disciples?"
Dongfang Yuqing smiled faintly, and his words seemed to be filled with disdain for immortals, and said: "In today's world, demons are rampant. There is almost no big boundary between those who have become immortals and cultivators. To put it bluntly, immortals are not like ordinary people at all. As described, it is high and cannot be blasphemed. It's just that it has more magic power and less desire than ordinary people. A biased approach will make it easier for people to fall into the devil's path!"
