There were also many forks in the door. Gu Pinglin walked in front without saying a word, without any scruples or triggering any mechanisms, and he walked unimpeded. The voices behind him gradually faded away, and only the flickering firelight could be heard in the dark passage. However, Gu Pinglin knew that the person was right behind him, walking leisurely.
It was just a coincidence that he opened this door.
Here, ordinary people are extremely cautious and will not act rashly, firstly out of respect for the ancestors, and secondly out of fear of triggering other traps. Only he came here out of interest, not caring much about inheritance, and confident that he can avoid any trap.
He had to speculate and think hard before he got the answer, and his behavior was purely natural, which was in line with the original intention of "not being bound by constraints" in this level.
Even though he is not good at swordsmanship, he can still gain the approval of the ancestor.
So, is there another explanation for the previous sword barrier? "The sea embraces all rivers" is good, but not retreating even a step in the face of different ways is "persistence" in one's own swordsmanship. Does the successor that the ancestor is waiting for also include this kind of people
What's important is that the person who opened this door in the previous life...
Gu Pinglin unconsciously clenched his hands in his sleeves.
impossible.
He was so arrogant in his previous life that he would never give in at the Sword Intent Gate. At that time, the Sword Intent Gate was intact, so he should not have come in. It couldn't have been him.
What's more,
Even if he opened the door first, what would it matter? That didn't mean anything. As long as there was enough time, I would also find a way to open this door.
"You keep saying you want to gamble, but now you've lost and you're giving me a hard time." A sigh came from beside me.
"Lose?" Gu Pinglin stopped suddenly. "I lost, and you didn't win either."
Duan Qingming said, "Oh!" "Not convinced? Come again."
Gu Pinglin did not respond and turned into a nearby passage. After walking a few steps, several thin threads shining with silver light suddenly spurted out from the stone walls on both sides. The thin threads hit the hard stone walls, making a "ding ding" sound, and countless pinhole-like holes appeared on the stone walls.
The people behind him exclaimed, "This is a cruel revenge."
With his cultivation suppressed, it would be impossible to avoid such a close attack without extremely fast reactions. Gu Pinglin knew that he had dodged it, but he was not surprised. He continued to move forward calmly, regardless of the sound of death behind him: "Just to tell you, talking too much can also be fatal."
There is more than one group of filaments, they are thrown out and then retracted, each time in a different position, forming a magic circle. The amazing thing is that every time they hit the stone wall, they will give rise to several sword energies, which bounce off the stone wall repeatedly. In a short while, the entire passage is filled with sword energy, separating the two people.
Duan Qingming stopped and asked: "You're leaving like this?"
This person was an unexpected event. Gu Pinglin was a little nervous when traveling with him. After two unexpected breakthroughs, he was more determined to get rid of him. Hearing this, he showed no shame and said without looking back: "Sorry, I'll go first."
"Why?" Duan Qingming asked from behind.
Gu Pinglin looked ahead, walked forward steadily, and said casually: "You said it yourself. Next, of course I have to get the inheritance first."
After a brief silence, a chuckle came from behind.
"are you sure?"
The sound suddenly stopped, no more filaments shot out from the stone wall, and the passage became quiet.
"Huh?" Gu Pinglin had a bad feeling in his heart and turned around to look.
The firelight illuminated the white robe, dragging a long shadow behind him. Duan Qingming stood there leisurely, his fingertips hooked on a thin thread: "A mere bone-wrapping silk formation can't help you, nor can it stop me."
Gu Pinglin guessed his intention and said, "Stop!"
The silver thread broke with a "ding" sound.
The fire in the passage suddenly went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness.
Gu Pinglin knew something was wrong, so he lifted his cloak and rushed forward at the fastest speed. However, he was hit by a sword energy, which forced him to retreat two feet. Then, a thin wind sounded behind his ears. Gu Pinglin hurriedly listened to the sound and identified the location, avoiding a group of silver attacks: "Duan Qingming, what are you doing!"
"Of course we will come again," Duan Qingming's voice came from beside him, "The Bone Wire Formation has many changes. If one strand is broken, the formation will change. Now neither you nor I can leave. It is still unknown who will get the inheritance first."
The Bone Wire Array is one of the most difficult arrays in the cultivation world. It is not the most powerful, but the trouble is that it changes without a fixed pattern, which is very annoying. Even if you are lucky enough to get out of the array, you will be worn out half your life. In his previous life, Gu Pinglin used two people in the same industry to test the array, figured out the pattern, and eliminated the two people. As for Duan Qingming, Gu Pinglin did not expect to trap him with this array, but only wanted to stop him for a moment, but he did not expect him to do this.
Since the formation has changed, all experience from the previous life is invalid.
This person is stirring up trouble when there is nothing to do. It is really wrong to provoke him. Gu Pinglin knew that he was affected by his emotions and regretted it secretly. While shuttling through the gaps in the sword energy, he calmed down and said, "Well, let's see how we do it."
"Are you faster than me?"
That’s right, Duan Qingming is knowledgeable and has a wide memory. He can remember hundreds of variations of Gu Ying’s sword techniques. It doesn’t take him too much time to break this formation.
"Why not give it a try?" Gu Pinglin's eyes suddenly turned cold and he took decisive action.
The Qi of Creation condensed in the palm of his hand, forming a small Tai Chi diagram. Several sword Qis were absorbed and ejected, counterattacking the rest of the sword Qis. The sword Qis collided with each other, changing their original directions and hitting the stone wall one after another. A very subtle "hissing" sound came from the wall, and countless fine threads shot out, more densely than before.
"Damn it!" The space was getting smaller and smaller, but Gu Pinglin had no intention of stopping. His attacks became more frequent, but his attacks became more powerful. He constantly absorbed sword energy, rebounded it, and triggered more attacks. To outsiders, he just looked like he was acting recklessly out of rage.
On the contrary, there was no big movement on Duan Qingming's side. Occasionally, a white shadow was seen swaying, like a white snake wandering in the darkness, and it made joking remarks from time to time.
"Hey, you're using such a drastic measure. Do you know you're going to lose and are you in a hurry?"
"Where's your caution?"
"Taking the initiative is indeed a good idea, but if you continue like this, your situation will only get worse. How long can you hold on?"
…
Fighting the strong with the strong and looking for flaws, this was the tactic Gu Pinglin often used in his previous life. Now that he had been discovered by him, Gu Pinglin was not affected at all and paid full attention to the changes in the formation.
found it.
Gu Pinglin rushed to the center of the formation.
In the darkness, the sound of clothes rubbing against each other was heard. In an instant, the passage fell silent again, and the fire on the wall rekindled.
The two hands retracted from the same stone at the top of the passage at the same time, and then, the purple and white figures rushed towards the open stone door in front of them like arrows.
In mid-air, the two men exchanged a few quick moves.
Feeling suppressed, Gu Pinglin was slightly surprised. Duan Qingming had gone against his usual behavior this time and openly used his realm advantage. The Bu Tian Jue was so overbearing, and with the gap of several small realms, Gu Pinglin's forward momentum was suddenly blocked and he was pushed back.
"Sorry, I have to leave first." A light laugh.
"Want to leave?" Gu Pinglin snorted and clapped his hands.
The fire suddenly went out, and a familiar "ding ding" sound was heard in the passage, and the bone-wrapping silk formation was activated again.
"What a trouble." Duan Qingming was trapped again.
"Come again," Gu Pinglin walked past him calmly, "You are so shameless as to suppress me in this realm, Duan Qingming?"
"I solved it the manly way," Duan Qingming said with a smile, "It was obviously you who took advantage of me first."
Gu Pinglin didn't argue with him and waved his hand: "Forget it, let's break the formation first."
It didn't take long before the bone-binding silk formation was completely broken and the passage was restored to light. The two walked side by side to the stone gate. Gu Pinglin frowned slightly and stopped.
"What's wrong?" Duan Qingming asked from the side.
“This door seems different.”
"Is it because of the broken formation?"
Gu Pinglin was also worried about this. In his previous life, he successfully passed the Sword Intent Level and the Bone Entanglement Array, but he did not break the array. Now that the two levels were broken in succession, he didn't know what variables would be triggered. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Duan Qingming again.
"I understand," Duan Qingming said, "It's all my fault."
Gu Pinglin withdrew his gaze and continued to examine the stone gate.
Duan Qingming sighed, "But you don't have to be so snobbish. Are you going to abandon me for such a small matter?"
Gu Pinglin said bluntly: "You are a variable."
"Are you afraid?"
"Don't provoke me. I don't like changes. If there is a next time, I will also find an opportunity to act alone."
"I promise not to do anything again." Duan Qingming looked at the dark passage inside the door, and then looked at the fork in the road next to it. "It turns out that all the roads here will eventually lead to the place of inheritance."
"That's right," Gu Pinglin stretched out his hand and gently knocked on the stone door. He suddenly summoned the Gu Ying Sword and sent a sword flower into the door. "It's rare that you can see it so early."
The sword flower entered the door two feet, as if it encountered a storm, it shook violently in the air and exploded in the blink of an eye.
Duan Qingming smiled slightly: "How about going in?"
"The formation hasn't changed. Maybe I remembered it wrongly." Gu Pinglin put away the Gu Ying Sword and stepped into the door while speaking.
"Huh?" Duan Qingming was surprised, "You... be careful!"
Before he finished speaking, Gu Pinglin had already sensed something was wrong. His mind raced and he subconsciously turned his body to avoid the wind blade. Immediately afterwards, the next wind blade came behind him.
"Xiao Jiu, this is the Sword Moving Yaotai Formation." Duan Qingming's voice came from the darkness.
Jian Luoyaotai formation!
Gu Pinglin knew something was wrong as soon as the formation was running. His body froze for a moment and he was almost hit by the wind blade.
The Wind Rising over the Long River, the Sword Moving over the Yaotai, the two formations are extremely similar, but their powers are vastly different. Many people confuse the two. Just now, I made a misjudgment and triggered the Sword Moving over the Yaotai formation.
But in the previous life, there was only the real Wind Rising Long River Formation here.
He used the Bone-Wrapping Silk Formation to eliminate his two companions and rushed to the door, where an old demon cultivator happened to be dead inside. Based on his death, he confirmed the judgment of "The Wind Rises in the Long River" and passed this level smoothly.
If it's a misjudgment...
No, there are many variables here. Now that the Sword Intent Gate and the Bone Silk Array have been broken, it is not surprising that the array will change.
Under normal circumstances, Gu Pinglin would not be afraid of the sword-moving Yaotai Formation. But at this moment, his mind was in a state of confusion, and he looked a little embarrassed when he was dodging. Suddenly, a wind blade cut through his cloak on his shoulder. Gu Pinglin was startled, suppressed his thoughts, concentrated on observing for a moment, and flew straight to the center of the formation.
It was a stone sword. Gu Pinglin reached out to hold the hilt, but found that another hand had already stopped there.
All attacks cease.
In the darkness, hands folded.
"How are you?" The man's voice was right beside my ear.
Gu Pinglin withdrew his hand and did not answer.
The sword moves on the jade platform, and the wind blows up the long river. I don’t want to think about it, but I can’t help thinking about it.
Is it true that the formation has changed
"Of course not." Someone answered.
Gu Pinglin was slightly startled and looked behind him warily: "Who!"
no respond.
Gradually, the passage in front of me became brighter. In the light of the fire outside the stone gate, two figures were vaguely standing there, one of whom was particularly familiar.
The Gu Ying sword flashed with purple light and floated in the air pointing at the old man's throat.
"Why is this happening, Master Duan?" the old man said in a trembling voice. "Your change of the formation is exactly what I want. I am not the kind of person who would meddle in other people's business..."
"Now that I've seen it, how can I leave?" He took two steps casually, then stood still, gracefully speaking in a voice as gentle as the spring breeze, saying coldly, "If he needs you, then die."
Amid the screams, the old man flew in.
Gu Pinglin subconsciously took a step back.
In a blink of an eye, all movement disappeared and the passage returned to darkness again.
"This is the truth." The previous voice sounded again, "Someone was afraid that you would make a mistake, so he came to break the formation himself and replaced the Sword Moving on the Jade Terrace with Wind Rising in the Long River to make it easier for you."
"The Creation Art is just given to you by him."
…
Ridiculous! Even if he had misjudged the formation, there were still ways to break it. He didn't need to give in at all!
"But it is a fact that he arrived before you. If he wants, you will definitely not be the one who gets the Creation Art."
Yes, in my previous life, I was in a hurry to find the inheritance and didn’t think about it carefully. If the old demon cultivator had accidentally entered this formation, how could he not fight desperately before dying, and how could he not leave any traces
With his fingers gripping the stone wall, Gu Pinglin stood quietly in the darkness, his face as gloomy as water.
"You will always be the loser, Gu Pinglin."
fail.
My cultivation was abolished, my master's sect was in decline, and I was hunted by the righteous. I had nothing left. Since he had won, why did he help me get the "Creation Art"? Do you want to enjoy the desperate expression of your opponent who was completely defeated? Or... Using the Seven Realms Coffin to preserve his body, what on earth was he thinking
Hateful and hateful.
This monster is ruthless and heartless, but he is so blessed by heaven. I have always been diligent and have my heart set on the Great Dao. Why should I be trapped by this obsession? If I can't get what I want this time, if my cultivation remains stagnant, if...
What if this obsession disappeared
Gu Pinglin suddenly shuddered.
No, he is no longer that Duan Qingming, but a fellow disciple and a friend, who even saved his life.
"Really? Although he is in the Lingxin Sect, he has no loyalty to the sect. If it weren't for his scheme, how could you have fallen into the sea bone pit and survived a near-death experience? He rescued you only because he couldn't bear to part with you, his plaything."
"This person is used to pretending and takes pleasure in playing with people's hearts. It's ridiculous that you have lived a new life and are even worse than your previous life. You still believe his acting?"
…
The gentle voice rings in my ears and also in my heart.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and Gu Pinglin couldn't help but turn his face slightly.
The man was still standing beside him, motionless, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"From beginning to end, he was just teasing you and humiliating you."
"What fellow disciples, what friends? If you don't let go of your obsession, you will be trapped on the path forever. Are you really willing to accept this? The Qi-transforming pill can't solve the problem. Only by making it disappear can you be truly free."
"Quick, while he's off guard."
…
The true energy of creation circulated in his body, and Gu Pinglin slowly raised his hand.
"Huh?" The people around him seemed to notice something.
Gu Ying and Ming Feng came out together, chasing from the left and right directions, as if they had a tacit understanding. Their sword energy was overwhelming, carrying a strong murderous intent, sweeping the entire passage.
With a muffled groan, a huge skull appeared and ran away with a scarlet tongue!
The sleeves of their clothes made a sound when they were blown by the wind. The two men chased to the outside of the stone gate and stopped at the same time.
"Master Lu, the tongue-teller." Duan Qingming said.
"There's another one." Gu Pinglin turned around and looked in another direction.
