Wan Li Zheng told the story in a leisurely manner, and the audience was silent for a long time.
The truth of the whole matter is so bizarre that it is completely different from all the speculations of the past five hundred years, and even completely contradictory.
The people of Kunlun felt an indescribable sense of absurdity.
Over the years, they have searched all over the secret realms for the whereabouts of the Kunshan Sword. After waiting for a long time for the Kunshan Jade to appear, they tried their best to get it back to Kunlun, and Wen Chuxue lost his composure for a while.
Until the start of the competition, they still wished that Kunshan Pianyu would be moved by Gupeng's sword intent and recognize Wanli Zheng as his master.
All this is done because Kunshan Sword is the legacy of a real person.
Just because of this sword, a little child was once carried to a place where he could seek truth from his conscience.
But he never imagined that this piece of jade was the culprit that led to Gu Peng's death.
What was even more unexpected was that hundreds of years had passed, but Kunshan Pianyu's hatred for Gu Peng had not diminished at all. The moment his will was awakened by the powerful sword intent, he killed him without hesitation, and almost caused a new bloody incident.
Thinking of this, everyone's expressions became more complicated, and Wen Chuxue's eyes were even more grim.
The person involved, on the other hand, remained calm and looked at the energy ring calmly, saying, "It seems that you will not let this go unless we have a resolution."
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light appeared on the energy ring, and a strong spiritual power burst out, carrying murderous intent and moving towards Wanli Zheng.
Wen Chuxue had been on guard secretly. Seeing this, he used a magic technique to shake the spiritual power back.
The energy-gathering ring trembled, making a "sizzling" sound of electricity, as if it was jumping in anger.
The developer glared and bared his teeth: "Meow meow meow!"
He looked like he was standing up for someone else.
Energy Ring: "Zi—"
"Ouch!" The developer was furious and opened his mouth as if to swallow the energy ring.
Zhu Changyang quickly stopped him: "Be careful or it will electrocute you."
Everyone watched the cat and the jade stone swearing at each other, and some people tried to stop the fight, and their foreheads twitched slightly.
I have to say that the relationship between species within the Industrial Clan is really complicated!
"Ridiculous." Wen Chuxue narrowed her eyes slightly, condensed her energy on her fingertips, and said with a little more coldness, "Uncle Master, why don't you let me solve this matter for you."
Wan Lizheng raised his hand to stop him: "This is my fate, it has nothing to do with others."
Moreover, the Kunshan piece of jade is not an ordinary magic weapon. It is extremely difficult to destroy it. On the contrary, it may cause violent energy to spread and leave endless troubles.
Wen Chuxue couldn't agree: "But..."
"Don't worry, Master." Zhu Changyang consoled him, "Let me give it a try."
As he spoke, he took out a few pieces of insect armor and some other materials from his pocket, ignited spiritual fire in his palm, and quickly refined a small box, locked the energy ring inside, clapped his hands and said, "Let's do this for now."
Wen Chuxue looked confused: "What is this?"
"Oh, an insulation box." Zhu Changyang gave a brief introduction.
This box is a combination of martial arts defense and physical insulation. With the special cultivation material of the Shapo insect armor, it can not only isolate the electric current, but also block the impact of spiritual power to a certain extent. At the end, it warned the box, "Be honest."
The energy ring was obviously not convinced and shook inside the box. However, without the hilt that could enhance the energy release, its power was weakened a lot and it ultimately failed to break out.
Zhu Changyang stuffed the box into the developer's mouth and said, "Here, I can let you take care of it now."
The developer was ecstatic and swallowed it in one gulp: "Meow!"
Everyone: “…”
The Industrial Sect's methods are always so simple and effective.
Wen Chuxue was still worried and wanted to say something else, but at this moment the spiritual energy around him suddenly shook, making a long "hum" sound.
Everyone was shocked, "What's going on?"
Some perceptive monks looked up subconsciously and were immediately shocked.
"Look at the sky, there are thunderclouds—"
"Is someone swearing again?!"
"No, it's Zi Lei. Someone is about to pass the tribulation!"
"Fuck, who is going through the tribulation at this time?"
In an instant, a thick layer of leaden clouds gathered on the top of the West Peak, and purple lightning could be vaguely seen between the clouds.
The entire venue went dark, with strong winds blowing and sand and rocks flying everywhere.
The developer's fur stood on end, and with a "wow" he dived into Zhu Changyang's pocket, leaving only his cat head outside to continue observing.
Zhu Changyang was startled, but his hand was immediately held by the person next to him.
Jun Shu said: "I'm not afraid."
Zhu Changyang felt relieved: "This is..."
"The cause has been proven, and the consequence will come." Wanli Zheng looked up at the sky, feeling the surging spiritual energy constantly flowing into his sea of consciousness, "I am going to advance."
The so-called seeking of the Tao means constantly breaking through confusion and seeking one's true nature.
As the reason why he had failed to transcend the tribulation that year was confirmed and the mystery was revealed, his realm began to recover at an accelerated pace.
However, when one absorbs spiritual energy too quickly or even continuously advances beyond the realm of consciousness, it is likely to alarm the heavens and bring about a small thunder disaster.
This means that Wanli Zheng has advanced at least two levels, and after entering the Spirit Severing Stage, even a small-scale period of thunder tribulation should not be underestimated.
Everyone in Kunlun's face changed.
Several deacons and elders quickly ran down the stage and directed their disciples to evacuate the crowd: "Master is about to pass the tribulation, everyone leave quickly."
"Stay away from West Peak, don't let the lightning strike you!"
In fact, there was no need to urge them, as the audience had already crushed the teleportation talismans and left the venue. Everyone knew the horror of the thunder tribulation, and even the most prudent people did not dare to delay for a moment.
Li Ying quickly grabbed Jie Li and Xuan Yang and said, "Brothers, let's go!"
He could resist at his level, but his brother was extremely fragile. If he got hurt, it would be hard to explain to the principal!
Jun Shu summoned the Pi Shui Sword, looked at Zhu Changyang, and asked, "Gone?"
One has to get through the heavenly thunder tribulation by oneself, and others are not allowed to interfere.
"Okay." Zhu Changyang was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and exclaimed, "Brother Wanli, don't you have a sword?"
Wanli Zheng does not have his own sword yet. The iron sword he used temporarily before was shattered by Kunshan Pianyu. Now that the thunder tribulation has come, he has no sword to use.
Wen Chuxue turned around and saw:
Zhu Changyang took out a large pile of scrap copper and iron from his pocket and piled it all over the floor. He greeted him warmly, "Brother Wanli, these are what you left behind. Take a look and see which one you like. Feel free to take any."
After a pause, he added, "It's not enough, I still have more."
This is all the legacy left by Brother Gu Peng. Fortunately, Sister Yan gave us a lot of supplies later, which should be enough for a while!
Wen Chuxue: “…”
Wan Lizheng was silent for a moment, then calmly declined: "Thank you, but I should have a sword."
As soon as the words fell, everyone suddenly sensed a powerful sword intent.
Jun suddenly seemed to realize something and turned his head to look in the direction of the main peak of Wenxin. He saw a dark stream of light flying out from the top of the snow and heading straight towards the West Peak.
Others soon saw the strange light as well.
An elder exclaimed in surprise: "Master Yue's sword!"
The strange black light came from Kunlun's mountain treasure, the Yueshi Sword.
The Sword of Master Yue was used by the founder of Kunlun Sect, the Sword Master Yue Girl. It was forged from a special type of obsidian and weighed over a thousand pounds. After the Yue Girl ascended to heaven, she left the Sword of Master Yue in the mortal world. It has been standing on the top of the Heart-Reading Peak ever since, and no one has been able to pull it out for thousands of years.
Seeing Master Yue's sword suddenly fly out by itself, everyone was surprised, but they quickly understood what was going on and all looked at Wanli Zheng.
Wen Chuxue's spirits lifted, and a look of joy appeared in his eyes: "Master Yuejian wants to recognize Uncle Master as his master!"
The Sword of Master Yue is a magic weapon for ascension. It contains the legacy of the Yue girl and is more powerful than the Kunshan Sword. With this sword in hand, surviving the thunder tribulation of the distraction period will certainly not be a problem.
Master Yue's sword was extremely fast and reached the sky above West Peak in the blink of an eye.
Wanli Zheng jumped up and grasped the hilt of Master Yue's sword. Just as the first small thunder fell, he swung the sword horizontally.
The sword light was everywhere, and the remaining power of thunder spread in all directions.
Jun Shu flicked his finger and dispersed the lightning, while holding Zhu Changyang tightly, "Let's go."
Zhu Changyang nodded, and jumped onto the long sword with him. Before they flew away from the West Peak, he saw Wen Chuxue holding up the sword and standing in front of Wanli Zheng, saying sternly, "Uncle Master, I will protect you."
Wen Chuxue cannot block the thunder tribulation for Wanli Zheng. This "guardian" is obviously preventing certain things from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.
Zhu Changyang smiled and reached out to touch the cat's head: "Shangzi, keep an eye on that battery."
Developer: “Meow meow meow!”
.
Everything that happened on Wenxin Peak quickly dominated the hot list of the Nine Realms group chat, from the competition between Zhu Changyang and Wanli Zheng to Gu Peng's identity, from the grudges five hundred years ago to Master Yue's sword recognizing its master, every incident touched everyone's nerves.
Shen Zha was yelling in the group, frantically calling for Zhu Changyang to come out to discuss the details, but unfortunately Zhu Changyang was thinking about the problem of the Kunshan jade piece and had no time to pay attention to him.
"Isn't this piece of jade too acrimonious?" Zhu Changyang complained, "It's been five hundred years, and you still can't let it go!"
A gentleman's revenge would only take ten years.
Jun Shu did not find it strange and said, "The feelings of things are harder to obtain than those of people, so we tend to be more persistent about them. This is the way of the Tao."
Zhu Changyang was confused by what he heard, so he asked, "Please elaborate."
Jun Shu explained that all human beings have seven emotions and are always trapped by them, so the way to seek the Tao is to abandon emotions and desires, like a journey of thousands of miles.
Objects are just the opposite of humans. They are born heartless and without emotions. Their way is to gain emotions first. This means that once they gain emotions, they will definitely be more persistent than mortals.
Zhu Changyang: I understand. You are so stubborn.
Jun Shu said, "The 'love' of this jade comes from Su Ti, and it is the only love, so time will not make it forget, but will only make it more stubborn."
Humans have seven emotions. If you lose one, you can still have other emotions.
However, things are different. It is difficult for them to have a single emotion, and often they only have this one emotion. This is also the reason why it is more difficult for things to cultivate than humans.
Zhu Changyang pondered for a moment and laughed: "This path of cultivation is quite contradictory. Those who have feelings have to forget about them, while those who have no feelings have to fall in love. Anyway, neither can live in peace, right?"
"No." Jun Shu said indifferently, "Being obsessed with forgetting love is just another kind of delusion."
It was rare to hear him say such profound words, Zhu Changyang's heart could not help but move, and he asked curiously: "What about you?"
Jun Shu: “What?”
Zhu Changyang: "Do you have something you are obsessed with?"
Jun was stunned for a moment, and nodded after a while: "Of course."
The devil enters the Tao through desire, not to mention that he was born in a place full of demons, and his nature is murderous and bloodthirsty. Endless desire is his nature.
But he didn't know when it started, but he suddenly wanted to be a good person.
Even if you’re not, pretend.
However, he looked at Zhu Changyang and said casually, "I want to practice dual cultivation with you now."
Zhu Changyang: “…”
To be honest, Brother Ci is indeed persistent on this point.
But the relationship between the two of them is already so close, and the atmosphere has been set to this point, so it doesn't feel like a bad idea.
Zhu Changyang coughed lightly, held Jun Shu's hand, and was about to speak when the developer suddenly ran in with a cry and jumped into Zhu Changyang's arms.
The charming atmosphere was broken, and Jun Shu's face darkened: "What are you doing here?"
The developer noticed that the old man was in a bad mood, and opened his mouth wide, and spit out the insulating box containing the energy ring with an innocent look: "Meow meow meow."
The insulation box vibrated wildly on the table.
Zhu Changyang was puzzled: "What happened to it?"
Jun Shu said, "It should be that he sensed that Wanli Zheng was going through a tribulation, and wanted to cause trouble again."
He held the box between his fingers and said, "It seems like I can't keep it."
"Calm down." Zhu Changyang quickly stopped him, "You also said that spirits are stubborn."
Jun Shu sneered, "It doesn't matter if you are stubborn, but you can't ruin my good deeds!"
Zhu Changyang: “…”
So this is what he was angry about!
"Forget it." Zhu Changyang rubbed his back while thinking, "Let me think of a solution."
