The seven people did not speak quietly, and stood there waiting anxiously. An hour passed, and Dumb remained as it was without any movement, and the atmosphere in the grotto became extremely heavy. Everyone's patience is fading little by little. Finally, just when Xi Wen was about to be unable to bear it anymore, Ah-Dai let out a long breath, and the faint light emanating from his body suddenly subsided, and he slowly opened his eyes.
It seemed as if two cold stars suddenly appeared in the grotto, and the piercing gaze made the seven of Xi Wen shiver at the same time.
Ah-Dai finally woke up. The Tiangang Sword Master's last efforts were not in vain. He successfully compressed and condensed 100% of his body's power into Ah-Dai's body. The milky white, crystal-like three-inch golden body floated on Ah-Dai's chest. Apart from this extra golden body, Ah-Dai didn't feel any other changes in himself. The inch-high silver golden body of Dantian still kept its original appearance, but it seemed to be more radiant. At the end of the exercise, he suddenly felt that his brain became clearer. It seemed that there were short clips flashing one after another, which were full of blood and killing. He tried hard to recall them, but he couldn't. Grasping the exact content of that segment, he had to give up after several failed efforts. Opening his eyes, he was surprised to find that the seven uncles were all standing in the grotto, staring at him. He hurriedly stood up and fell to the ground, "Uncle, why are you here?" When he landed on the ground, Ah-Dai realized that his original commoner clothes were covered with dried blood, which was hard and sticky, and it was very uncomfortable to stick to the skin.
Xi Wen ignored the changes in Dumb's body, and hurriedly asked: "Dai, where is your ancestor? Where did he go?"
Duan also realized this problem at the same time, looked around, but there was no sign of the Sword Master of Tiangang, and said sadly: "The old master said that he is going to another world, which seems to be the world where the gods are. His old man Have you already left?" Thinking that he would never see the Sword Master of Tiangang again in a short time, he couldn't help feeling sad in his heart.
"God Realm? The master said he was going to the God Realm. Ah-Dai, what did the Master tell you?" Xi Wen, who had always been prudent, grabbed Ah-Dai's shoulder and asked urgently, regardless of his appearance.
"Master, don't worry. The old master said that he is too old to survive in this world. He must go to another world to make new breakthroughs...." Dumb, the sword master of Tiangang I probably repeated what I said before.
Xi Wen and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. They were not only surprised that the Sword Master of Tiangang passed all his skills to Duan, but also surprised by the words left by the Sword Master of Tiangang. Ascension to the God Realm, if that is the case, the master is not dead!
Lu Wen pondered and said: "Brother, since the master said that he can ascend to the God Realm, I think it is very possible. With the master's cultivation base, there is almost no opponent on the mainland. Even the gods are not much better than the old man, the master. Right. It seems that we should be happy for Master!"
Xi Wen nodded slightly. After all, the body of the Sword Master of Tiangang was not found, and the white light that flashed outside the grotto before seemed to be a sign of ascension, which gave everyone hope. He sighed, and said: "Whether Master passed away or ascended to the God Realm, it is impossible for us to see him again. Brothers, let us send him away respectfully." After speaking, he knelt down first, He knocked his head with a bang. The others, including Ah-Dai, also knelt down without hesitation. After a while, eight shallow pits appeared on the ground.
After a long time, Xiwen straightened his upper body, clasped his red-eyed hands in front of his chest, "Master, you old man can go at ease. Don't worry, as long as our senior brothers are here, the Tiangang Sword Sect will definitely develop according to your wishes. May your old soul rest in peace. If you really end up in another world, we will always bless you."
Dumb said strangely: "Uncle Master, the old master has indeed gone to another world. You, why do you..." Hearing Xi Wen's words, he felt something wrong in his heart.
Xi Wen shook his head slightly, and said: "Dai, don't say any more, let's get out of here first." He stood up, pulled up Dui, and Dui looked at the sad expressions of several seniors in a daze, and pointed at the Tiangang sword on weekdays. The big rock where the saint practiced murmured: "Master, you go to the God Realm first, and when Duan has enough skill, he will definitely go to you." After finishing speaking, he flew to the rock where he was sitting, Put away the light armor, the giant spirit snake's eyes and snake tendons, and the Pluto sword. Then he floated in front of the sleeping Shengxie, took out the blood of the dragon from his collar, and said: "Use the blood of the dragon as a guide, open the gate of time and space." Ah-Dai not only has his true qi thicker, but since the practice of life-changing is mainly the practice of mental power in order to better control the fighting qi, therefore, Ah-Dai's mental power has also improved a lot, and now he can control the blood of the dragon, It's more handy. A blue halo floated from the blood of Shenlong, covering Shengxie's body, the light flashed, Shengxie disappeared, and Ah-Dai felt that the blood of Shenlong had life energy again.
With a heavy heart, the seven Xiwen returned to the Tiangang Sword Sect with Ah-Dai. Ah-Dai washed off the blood stains on his body first, and put on the Giant Spirit Snake Armor left to him by the Sword Master of Tiangang. A set of full-body armor covers all parts except the head, hands, and feet. After wearing it, it seems that there is an extra layer of skin. It is not only extremely flexible, but also has very good air permeability, just like the one that grows on the body. No matter how much the body moves, it will not have the slightest effect. Tie the leather pouch of Pluto's sword outside the light armor, and then put on his own ordinary clothes.
There is no need to carry the Tiangang sword on his back anymore, Duan's current attire is no different from that of an ordinary civilian, but his temperament is completely different. Compared with ordinary people, he has a strange look on him.
In the lobby of the Sword Sect, Xi Wen sat in the chief position, and the other six second-generation disciples sat scattered at the bottom, their expressions were very dignified. The biggest reason why the Tiangang Sword Sect has achieved today's achievements on the mainland is because there is a super master in the Sword Sect—the Tiangang Sword Master. will lose his protection.
Duan stood beside Lu Wen, and the heavy atmosphere in the lobby made him feel out of breath. After a long while, Xiwen said: "Junior Brothers, since Master and his old man have gone, we have to take care of everything about the Sword Sect. This matter must be kept secret. Seventh Brother, especially you, you are impulsive and easy You must pay attention to it from now on. Don’t notify the second brother for the time being. He is not too young, and I’m afraid he won’t be able to bear it if he finds out about the master’s situation. "
Zhou Wen nodded solemnly and said, "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely pay attention."
Xi Wen sighed, and said, "Dumb, since the master has imparted all his skills to you, a heavy burden has been placed on your shoulders, do you understand?"
Dumb lowered his head, and said: "Uncle, don't worry, no matter what time, as long as the sword sect is in trouble, I will definitely come back as quickly as possible."
Xi Wen said: "I know you still have a lot of things to do, including avenging your master Owen. We won't keep you any longer. But, you have to remember that no matter where you go, you have to be a disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect. Myself, if you do something evil, we will not let you go." Speaking of the last sentence, Xi Wen's tone became severe.
Dumb didn't answer, but just nodded silently.
Lu Wen said: "Eldest brother, then I will take Dumb to find Brother Rock now, and let them go down the mountain as soon as possible."
Xi Wen said: "Okay, then I will trouble you, fourth brother. Starting tomorrow, the seven of us and the three generations of disciples who have reached the sixth level of Shengshengjue will practice together the Shengshengchang technique left by the master in order to improve the sword sect faster. strength. At the same time, the juniors should also urge their own disciples to practice diligently."
"Yes, senior brother."
Lu Wen took Duan out of the lobby, and while walking, he warned: "Dai, be careful on the road, and come back if there is anything you can't handle. This will always be your home."
Dumb's eyes turned red, thinking of what the Sword Master of Tiangang had done for him, his heart felt sad, "Fourth Master, after I avenge Uncle Owen, I will definitely come back to see you."
Lu Wensai gave Ah-Dai a wooden pipe, and said: "When necessary, you only need to pull out the wooden plug on the pipe, and then pour the vital energy into it, and then you can send a signal to summon your fellow disciples. Within a hundred miles around My classmates will definitely rush to help you."
Duan took over the wooden tube and put it into the blood of the dragon. The function of this wooden tube seems to be similar to the scroll Xuan Ye gave him.
At this time, they had arrived at the room where Rock and Rock Force lived. Lu Wen knocked on the door a few times, and Rock's deep voice came from the room, "Who is it!"
Dumb hurriedly said: "Brother Rock, it's me. Dumb."
The door opened, Yan Yan and Yan Li came out, and when they saw Lu Wen, they hurriedly saluted. Lu Wen smiled and said: "Okay, you brothers don't need to be too polite, just clean up, and go down the mountain with Dumb." Hearing Lu Wen's words, Brother Rock was overjoyed. There is Xi Wen to teach martial arts, but they have always been used to freedom, and they have long been impatient. Traveling to the mainland is what they yearn for.
"Dumb, will the Juggernaut let you go?" Yan Li asked.
Dumb glanced at Lu Wen, nodded and said, "Yes! It's been more than half a year, and it's time for us to help the elves find their people. Otherwise, it's not good to delay things."
Lu Wen said: "Okay, I'll go back first. You don't have to say goodbye to us when you leave. Be careful on the way, and don't be impulsive when you encounter problems." After speaking, he patted Ah-Dai on the shoulder, turned and left.
After watching Lu Wen's back disappear, Yan Yan laughed and said, "Dumb, you can finally go, it's really boring here! Come on, go into the house and wait for us to clean up."
The room where the rock brothers live is very simple, with only two beds, a table and some necessities for life. While arranging his clothes, Rock said: "Dumb, you have changed a lot in the past six months! Yesterday you cut snake skin really well. If you use it to attack the enemy, it will definitely be more powerful."
Dumb scratched his head, and said, "Brother, you are too much for the prize. You are also very good!"
Yanli had already packed his things, and said with a smile: "Okay, you don't have to be polite. I wanted to compete with you, but I still don't want to try after seeing your energy transformation skills yesterday, otherwise , a snap of your yellow scissors, and it's all over."
Duan was not as excited as Brother Rock. After they cleaned up, the three of them quietly left the Sword Sect and went down the mountain along the right path in front of the mountain under Rock's leadership.
"Brother Rock, how is the nephew whose leg was broken by me a few days ago? Is he feeling better?" Duan is still brooding about the broken leg that day.
Rock said: "It's not so easy. After a hundred days of injury, the girl has to rest for three months to recover. One by one is a mischievous ghost. She broke her leg this time, just to let her restrain herself, so as not to waste time. There is a lot of restlessness in the old sword sect."
Dumb murmured: "It would be great if Yueyue was here, with her recovery magic, maybe Yiyi's leg injury would heal faster." Holding the elf bracelet Xuanyue left him, Dumb felt Strong thoughts of Xuan Yue surged up. Although he understood that it was almost impossible for him and Xuan Yue to be together, he still couldn't let himself forget what happened when he was with Xuan Yue.
Looking at Dumb's appearance, Rock sighed slightly, and said, "I miss Yueyue. We miss her very much too. I really didn't expect that she is the daughter of the Holy See priest in red. Or, let's go to the Holy See to find her? "
Dumb's heart was moved by Rock's proposal, but he quickly rejected the idea, "No, I can't go to her. She and I are people from two worlds. It's better not to meet each other. Otherwise, we will definitely Bring her even more trouble. Maybe she has forgotten me now." Thinking that Xuan Yue might have forgotten herself, Ah-Dai's heart suddenly ached, as if a big stone was pressed against his chest, making him unable to breathe . Although he has been avoiding his feelings for Xuan Yue, his heart will not deceive him.
Looking at the sad look of Ah-Dai, Yan Yan couldn't help thinking of his wife who died tragically, and said sadly: "You are better than me. At least you know where your beloved is. But for me, Yun'er died, and she also took my heart."
Yanli looked at the two people in pain, frowned and said: "Okay, don't think about it anymore, if you think about it, you will go crazy. Let's hurry up and see who can run faster." After finishing speaking, he took the lead , and galloped down the mountain quickly. Duan and Rock looked at each other, and the two showed comforting gazes at the same time, let out a long roar, and chased after Yan Li.
In the spring of 1995 in the sacred calendar, Dui, who had received all the skills of the Sword Master of Tiangang, left Tiangang Mountain with Brother Rock, and embarked on a journey to save the catastrophe.
All three of them have made great progress in their skills. After a day of rushing, they finally came out of the Tiangang Mountains. Looking back at the rolling mountains, the three of them felt as if they had passed away.
Rock said: "It's getting dark, let's rest for a while, and tomorrow morning, we will go west from here, and it is estimated that we will be able to pass through the Guangming Province of the Huasheng Empire and reach the territory of the Sunset Empire in three or four days. Let's search each city one by one, and we will definitely find the whereabouts of the elves."
Duan's face suddenly changed, as if he had noticed something. He found that there seemed to be some faint energy around the three of them. Standing up cautiously, Ah-Dai exuded a faint white light all over his body, searching for everything around him. The sounds of insects and birds were heard, but nothing special was found.
"Dumb, what's wrong with you?" Rock asked.
Duan sat down awkwardly, frowned and said, "I seemed to feel that there were people around me just now, but when I listened carefully, there was no movement."
Yanli laughed and said, "There are very few people around the Tiangang Mountains. Why are you so nervous? Even if there are people, it doesn't matter to us."
Yan Li was wrong, the people in the dark were following them from the foot of Tiangang Mountain, and the four figures were hiding a hundred meters away from them. At the same time, they were amazed by Ah-Dai's spiritual perception, and they hid their aura more carefully. They are the four holy judges sent by the Holy See to secretly protect Dumb.
Two days later, the three of them passed through Tiangang Province and entered the territory of Guangming Province.
"Wow, what a tall city wall!" Yan Li exclaimed. In front of them is a huge city, the city wall is more than 30 meters high, and it is completely repaired from huge stones. In front of the city, there is a moat about 20 meters wide. The suspension bridge is lowered to connect the two banks. Passing through the suspension bridge, it is very lively. Rock and Yanli grew up with the Puyan tribe since they were young, and this was the first time they saw a city, so they were naturally very surprised.
Above the wide city gate in the middle of the city wall, there is a stone plaque hanging high, with three big characters written in the holy script of the Holy See—Guangming City.
Yan Yan unfolded the map, took a closer look, and said, "This should be Guangming City, the capital of Guangming Province. In the Huasheng Empire, this is one of the few big cities. It is really magnificent! I heard that a few years ago, the Huasheng Empire Just based on this place, we fought several small-scale battles with the Sunset Empire, and both sides were injured, and no one could do anything about it."
Dumb agrees with Yan Yan's words very much. From the outside, this Guangming City is much larger than those small cities of the Red Hurricanes, and the wide city walls can't be seen at a glance. "Brother Rock, let's go in and find a place to rest. We will continue our journey tomorrow, and since this city is so big, there must be nobles in it, maybe we can find traces of the elves."
Yan Yan shook his head and said, "Probably not. The Huasheng Empire has always regarded itself as bright, and its behavior is very upright in all aspects. It is the only country among the three empires except the Suoyu Federation that does not have brothels and casinos. If it is not for their handling of affairs Lei Luo will not get the support of the Tiangang Sword Sect, and no nobles will pay a high price to buy the elves to work hard. The reason why the Moonshen Brothers said that the nobles of the Sunset Empire are the most suspected of arresting the elves is very reasonable The Sunset Empire and the Huasheng Empire are just the opposite. They are the darkest countries on the mainland. Not only are brothels and casinos rampant there, but most of the base camps of many dark forces are located there. Including your enemy killer union. "
Dumb's expression changed, and he said, "Assassin's Guild? Brother, do you know where their headquarters is?" Dumb's confidence increased as his skills increased greatly, and he really wanted to avenge Owen as soon as possible.
Rock smiled wryly: "The headquarters of the Assassin's Guild is very secret, don't say I don't know, even the people in the Assassin's Guild, only the top management know the location of their headquarters."
Dumb said with a little disappointment: "It seems that we can only search slowly. Brother Rock, what kind of places are the brothels and casinos you mentioned just now? Why haven't I heard of them?"
Hearing Duan's question, Rock was suddenly at a loss for words. Yan Li laughed, and said, "You will know when you arrive at the Sunset Empire. They are all gold-selling caves!"
Rock glared at Yan Li and said, "Brother, that's not a good place, you'd better not touch it."
Duan nodded in confusion, and said, "Then let's go into the city."
Yanli seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and yelled loudly, Yanli and Dumb couldn't help but cast their gazes on him. Rock asked: "You were pulled by your tail, what's your name?"
Yan Li said with a bitter face: "Brother, we seem to have forgotten a very important thing."
Rock was taken aback, and said, "What's the matter?"
Yanli said: "We don't have any money! Without money, it's hard to move an inch on the mainland."
Yan Li's words immediately stunned Duan and Yan Yan. What Yan Li said was right, they had no money on them, all the money on Ah-Dai was given to Xuan Yue at the beginning, and it was almost spent all the way. When leaving Tiangang Mountain, Xuanyue was very confused. She only remembered to leave the bracelet to Dumb, but forgot about the money. Before leaving Tiangang Mountain, Xi Wen and others were immersed in the grief of the disappearance of Tiangang Sword Master, and no one cared about these details.
Rock smiled wryly: "Yeah, why did we forget about this, I'm afraid we can't even afford food if we don't have money, do we brothers have to find a place to work?"
Duan's expression suddenly changed, recalling what Owen said to him back then, and whispered: "Brothers, I have a way to get money."
Yan Li was overjoyed and said: "What method, tell me quickly."
Duan covered himself with the tall body of the rock, summoned his red magic card from the blood of the dragon, and said: "Have you forgotten? I am an intermediate magician! You can receive the moon tribute with this card, I It’s been more than half a year since I haven’t received it, and that money should be enough for us for a while.”
Yan Li laughed loudly and said: "Brother, you can do it, how can we forget this. However, you magician is really different! The kind of magician with superb martial arts skills and bad magic. Haha!"
Hearing Yanli say that his magic is terrible, Duan couldn't help but think of Corris. In his heart, Corris is a great magician. He secretly said in his heart: Teacher Corlis, after I finish dealing with the elves, I will definitely visit you as soon as possible. Then, you have to teach me more magic! Dumb must learn from you seriously. How he wishes to return to the Phantom Forest as soon as possible! But the matter of the elves made him unable to separate himself.
Rock smiled and said, "Stop making fun of Dumb. Now that we have the money, let's go to the city."
Guangming City is worthy of being one of the most prosperous cities in the Huasheng Empire. Once you enter the city, you will be greeted by a wide street lined with shops, shouting one after another, and pedestrians coming and going. There are some noble carriages moving slowly under the driver, a scene of prosperity and prosperity. When he came here, Dumb felt very comfortable as if he had come home. The pedestrians around him were all yellow-skinned with black hair and black eyes like him, and no one would cast a curious look at him.
Rock and Yanli are exactly the opposite of Dumb. They are tall, with shaved heads and weapons on their bodies. They immediately became the focus of pedestrians' attention, making them very uncomfortable. Yanli almost became angry a few times, but accidentally found that there were some beautiful girls among the people who looked at him, and the anger in his heart suddenly subsided, and he put on a look of holding his head high.
After finding out that the Magician's Union was not far from here in the east of the city, the three quickly quickened their pace and headed straight for the Magician's Union.
Like the small town of the Red Hurricanes, the Magician Union in Bright City still lives next to the Mercenary Union, but the Magician Union here is not so depressed. Although the number of people entering and leaving is far less than that of the mercenary union, there are also many magicians coming and going. Moreover, in terms of architecture, the magician union here is much larger than the mercenary union, and the hexagonal tall building completely compares with the mercenary union. Dumb didn't know that this was the general meeting of the Magician's Guild on the entire continent.
"It's here, let's go in." The three walked towards the gate of the Magician's Union. As soon as he walked to the door, a wooden staff suddenly stretched out from the gate, and an old voice said: "You have gone wrong, the mercenary union is next door, and this is the magician's union." Duan looked intently, only to see the magician There was a man inside the union gate. This man had white beard and hair, and looked at least seventy or eighty years old. He was wearing ordinary civilian clothes, with bags under his eyes, and he didn't even look at the three dumb people.
Duan also encountered the same situation, and hurriedly said politely: "Grandpa, I am a magician, and I am here to receive the monthly gift. These two are my friends. Let us go in." The old man slowly raised his head, Looking at the three of them, his eyes were dirty and yellow, and he looked dull, looking at the three of them up and down. Dumb was afraid that the old man would not believe it, so he hurriedly handed over his magic card. The old man didn't answer, just glanced at it, and said, "Since you are a magician, you can go in. The two of them are not, so you can't go in."
Yan Li was angry, and said: "You old man, why are you so dull, we just went in to have a look, and we are not making trouble. When my brother finishes collecting the money, we will leave immediately."
The old man snorted, without looking at Yanli, and still said the same sentence, "It's not a magician who can't enter."
As soon as Yan Li was about to explode, Duan hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Both brothers, since this old man won't let you in, it's fine. It's not easy for him to guard the gate here at such an age! Let's not embarrass him. He's gone. You wait here for me, I'll be out soon."
Yanyan pulled Yanli's skirt, Yanli snorted, and said in a low voice: "Brother Dumb, then you can come out quickly. Didn't you see that there are many restaurants lined up on both sides of the street? My brother, I have long been exhausted. We're going to have a good meal in a while, since I went to Tiangang Mountain, I haven't had a good meal, and the birds are almost fading out of my mouth."
Duan nodded, turned around and entered the Magician's Guild, Yan Yan pulled Yan Li to a side corner and sat down, waiting for Dumb.
When Ah-Dai passed through the gate, he said to the old man, "I'm really sorry, my elder brother is actually very kind, but his temper is a bit grumpy, don't worry about it."
The old man glanced at Dumb with his cloudy eyes, and said lightly: "The world is getting worse! There are not many young people like you, so go in."
Duan smiled slightly, saluted the old man and walked into the magicians union. The light in the trade union is not very strong, there is a huge hexagram pattern on the ground, and there are several unmarked counters on the inside. In the middle of the hall, there were already more than a dozen magicians chatting together, and they seemed to be sharing some magic experiences. One of the magicians saw Ah-Dai coming in, and greeted him with a smile: "This little brother is very unfamiliar! You are new here." This man was wearing a red magic robe, and he looked over thirty. The sign on the magic robe shows that this person is a senior magician.
Seeing people taking the initiative to say hello, Dui hurriedly said: "Hello, I'm new here, and I'm here to collect the monthly payment. Excuse me, who do I want to collect it from?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "So the little brother came from afar! I don't know what level of magician you are, why don't you wear a magic robe?" He is proud of the magic robe he issued.
Dumb said with some embarrassment: "My magic robe is broken, and I just came here to get a set by the way. I have passed the certification of an intermediate magician."
