Qin Wanwan was thrown into a whirlpool by Jian Xingzhi, and then she felt a strong wind sweeping her into a corridor. Someone raised a hand to hold her shoulders and said worriedly: "Fellow Daoist Qin, are you okay?"
"A hundred years of worry?"
Qin Wanwan glanced at Bai Suiyou, and immediately remembered something. She quickly got up and rushed over: "Long Aotian, you bastard..."
Bai Suiyou hurried to pull her and was about to dissuade her when he saw Qin Wanwan was stunned.
Only at this moment did Qin Wanwan see clearly that the vortex was actually a light gate from the front. She could clearly see the scene in the secret realm through the light gate.
At this moment, the sky of the secret realm was already full of cracks, and only Xie Gutang's light column was supporting the sky, but the light column looked as thin as a cicada's wing, and it was obvious that it was about to collapse. The monks rushed out of the light gate, and only Jian Xing flew against the flow of people on his sword and rushed to Xie Gutang's side.
"It's already very dangerous down there," Bai Suiyou stood behind Qin Wanwan and advised her, "Fellow Daoist Qin, let's go into the sword tomb. This is just a passage opened up by Daojun Xie alone. Once the secret realm below collapses, this place will also collapse."
"Just leave now," Qin Wanwan gritted her teeth, "Just wait for them in the hall. They are all here to save people. We can't just leave them alone and run away."
Bai Suiyou was stunned for a moment, as if he was a little surprised at Qin Wanwan's choice. Then he saw Qin Wanwan take a few steps forward, put her hand on the edge of the vortex, and looked down. Bai Suiyou hesitated for a moment, walked behind Qin Wanwan, and said, "Let's wait with Fellow Daoist Qin."
When everyone squeezed out of the secret realm, Jian Xingzhi landed beside Xie Gutang. Xie Gutang looked over at Jian Xingzhi and frowned, "Why are you..."
"Some people say that the strong will protect the weak," Jian Xingzhi raised his hand and made a seal, "She has done her best, she can't fall behind."
"you… "
Xie Gutang didn't understand, and before he could finish his words, he saw a bright light shining from Jian Xingzhi's hand.
"Ask the Nine Supremes, and the sword follows your will."
Jian Xingzhi raised his hand and pressed the seal on the ground. 666 took a breath of cold air: "Master is not good!"
Jian Xingzhi ignored 666's dissuasion and transformed his consciousness into spiritual power and injected it into the magic circle. At that moment, electric current instantly struck his whole body, and a huge sword suddenly lit up in the light column that was originally as fragile as a cicada's wing. The huge sword soared into the sky, resisting the sky that was about to fall down.
An unprecedented top-level sword intent rushed towards him. Xie Gutang raised his head suddenly and looked at Jian Xingzhi in shock. Jian Xingzhi gritted his teeth, enduring the electric current spreading throughout his body, and said hoarsely: "Let them leave quickly, and you leave too."
"Boss..."
Electricity rushed through Jian Xingzhi's body. 666 raised his little hands to cover his eyes, unable to bear to watch any longer.
Qin Wanwan looked from high above and saw him kneeling on one knee, his blue clothes fluttering, his whole body trembling as if he was enduring something, but he still stayed where he was and did it. She was a little dazed for a moment.
She thought he was a bully, but suddenly she found out that this man did not talk about morality, but practiced morality.
In her eyes, Jian Xingzhi at that moment was so handsome that he was out of place in his usual jokes. Her heart beat violently in her chest and she could hear it clearly.
She was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized that she needed to do something.
"38, if I install your system and violate the character settings, what will be the consequences?"
"Haven't you experienced this?" 38's tone was filled with pain. "Electric shock!"
From the first appearance, the scenes where Long Aotian used abilities beyond Jian Zhiyan's were flashed through Qin Wanwan's mind one by one. She immediately understood the limitations of Jian Xingzhi's system.
"If I want to help another person with the system, is there any way to avoid the electric shock?"
"Yes, yes," 38 hesitated, "pay 500 yuan once and you won't be fined..."
"I want a waiver of the ticket."
Qin Wanwan spoke immediately, 38 somewhat reluctantly: "Master..."
"quick!"
Qin Wanwan urged him, and 38 sighed: "There were originally 1035 accumulated funds, and they were reduced to before liberation overnight!"
As she spoke, Qin Wanwan felt a piece of talisman paper in her sleeve. Qin Wanwan took the talisman paper, raised her hand and flew towards Jian Xingzhi, shouting, "Long Aotian!"
As soon as Jian Xingzhi looked up, he saw a talisman flying towards him from a high altitude. He raised one hand and the talisman was attached to his palm. In an instant, the pain caused by the electric current disappeared. 666 exclaimed in surprise: "Huh? No ticket? It's actually 500 points!"
Hearing this, Jian Xingzhi looked up at the vortex in the sky, and a smile appeared on his lips: "It's not in vain that I care about her."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Gutang finally couldn't control the blood surging in his chest, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. The light column shattered instantly, and more than half of the sky collapsed immediately, leaving only Jian Xingzhi's lightsaber still supporting the sky and the earth.
"Senior..."
Xie Gutang raised his hand to calm the blood in his chest. He was about to say something, but Jian Xingzhi glanced at him calmly: "If it's useless, leave quickly and help protect Qin Wanwan."
Qin Wanwan registered for the Tianjian Sect as 'Qin Wanwan', using a pseudonym that Xie Gutang knew. Xie Gutang knew that he was just a burden at the moment, so he simply raised his hand and saluted: "Yes, senior."
As he spoke, Xie Gutang flew up on his sword and soared into the sky.
Jian Xingzhi used his spiritual consciousness to condense the sword, which was extremely harmful to the spiritual consciousness of a strong man like him. Even without the electric current, he began to feel some pain in his sea of consciousness. Seeing the monks leaving one by one, the sky collapsed bit by bit, and the corridor where Qin Wanwan was also began to shatter.
Bai Suiyou observed the surroundings and said anxiously: "Fellow Daoist Qin, let's leave now. Once this passage is broken, we will never be able to reach the sword tomb again."
"You go ahead," Qin Wanwan stared at Jian Xingzhi below, gritted her teeth, and said without turning her head, "You stay here."
She said that a truly strong person protects the weak, and there was no reason for her to let Jian Xingzhi do it and escape herself.
Qin Wanwan was trembling as she spoke, and her hands trembled as she held the door frame. Bai Suiyou stared at her eyes that were obviously afraid but did not hesitate at all, and sensed that she was calm and determined, which was completely different from usual. There was a different depth in his eyes, and he smiled softly: "Friend Qin and Friend Long are really close friends."
"It's not a deep friendship," Qin Wanwan gritted her teeth, "You wouldn't run away even if you were asked to save a bunch of us down there."
Bai Suiyou was stunned for a moment, and then Xie Gutang stumbled into the light gate on his sword. Qin Wanwan supported him and said, "Thank you, Daojun."
"Let's go," Xie Gutang just calmed down and pulled Qin Wanwan out, "Senior asked me to look after you."
"You can't leave. The light gate can close at any time. You have to wait for him to come!" After saying that, Qin Wanwan turned to look at Bai Suiyou, "Take Xie Daojun with you and leave."
"Yes..."
Just as Xie Gutang was about to speak, Qin Wanwan recited a spell with her hands. Xie Gutang was injured, but Qin Wanwan used a heavenly spell to escape instantly. Xie Gutang looked up at Qin Wanwan in surprise. Qin Wanwan stood beside the light gate with a firm look on her face: "Xie Daojun, I have a way to protect myself. You guys go ahead, there's no hindrance."
There were fewer and fewer monks, and the tunnel was shaking more and more violently. Large pieces of debris were falling off from above, and the sound of fighting came from the sword tomb behind the tunnel. Xie Gutang looked at the sword tomb, thinking about the task given by his master for entering the secret realm this time, and was unable to make a decision for a while.
Finally, a monk rushed into the whirlpool. Ji Youyou, who was sitting on the roof, glanced at Jian Xingzhi and urged him, "Young man, let's go."
Hearing this, Jian Xingzhi smiled at him and said, "Give me a kick and I'll find you another day."
After saying this, he pulled his hand away from the formation, the lightsaber disappeared instantly, and Tian Fei fell quickly.
The entire corridor and the sky began to shake, and the vortex began to close. Qin Wanwan turned around without hesitation, grabbed the entrance of the vortex, and shouted to Bai Suiyou and Xie Gutang behind her: "Let's go!"
As she said this, she drew out her sword and placed it across the vortex, using her spiritual consciousness to transform it into spiritual power to prevent the vortex from closing.
Bai Suiyou felt that the situation was not good, gritted his teeth, grabbed Xie Gutang and said, "Let's go!"
After saying that, he pulled Xie Gutang and rushed out.
Qin Wanwan clung to the vortex. The force with which the vortex was closing was extremely great. Qin Wanwan activated her golden elixir and began to use Jishan's method of absorbing spiritual power to frantically absorb the surrounding spiritual energy. While absorbing, she couldn't help but curse Jian Xingzhi.
"Even if Long Aotian dies in the street today and becomes a ghost, I will not let you go!"
"Run away! You're crazy. It's a fool to follow you!!"
Seeing that there was only a spot of light left in the vortex, Qin Wanwan stuck one hand in the spot of light and pressed the other hand on the wall next to her, shouting: "Long Aotian!!"
Jian Xingzhi flew up into the sky on his sword, watching the vortex grow and shrink. When it was about to reach the zenith, there was only a dot of light left in the vortex, and it seemed that it would close at any time. He was startled and sped up. Just before the vortex closed, he saw a slender hand pry open the dot of light and stretch it out, accompanied by Qin Wanwan's scream as if he was dead: "Long Aotian!"
Jian Xingzhi grabbed that hand. The moment Qin Wanwan felt someone holding her hand, she desperately pulled Jian Xingzhi towards her. In an instant, the sky and the earth merged, and the tunnel collapsed completely. Jian Xingzhi hugged her, protected her head, turned over and rolled out of the tunnel. At the moment the tunnel was completely closed, he fell heavily to the ground with Qin Wanwan in his arms.
The moment they hit the ground, Qin Wanwan felt a flash of knife coming from the side. She hugged Jian Xingzhi and rolled on the ground. After barely dodging the attack, she felt the attacker being kicked away. Nanfeng hurried over to help Qin Wanwan and Jian Xingzhi: "Master, Daojun, are you still okay?"
Jian Xingzhi was silent, with cold sweat on his forehead. Excessive consumption of spiritual consciousness made it difficult for him to recover. Qin Wanwan was still shaking. She used reason to control herself and took out the pill from her pocket tremblingly. She shook several times, but the pill could not be shaken out. Jian Xingzhi took the medicine bottle, poured a handful into his hand, raised his hand and slapped it into her mouth. He threw a few more into her mouth and joked weakly: "You are timid, but you are very capable. Qin Wan, you are an ox." Jian Xingzhi gave a thumbs up and praised, "You are really awesome."
"Fellow Daoist Qin, Fellow Daoist Long!" Jian Xingzhi had just finished speaking when he saw Bai Suiyou running up to the two of them with a blood-stained mourning stick, breathing heavily and expressing relief, "It's great that you're all okay."
"What's the matter?"
Qin Wanwan looked up at Bai Suiyou and glanced around at the same time.
It seemed that a very fierce fight had taken place in the surroundings, with corpses everywhere, but the fight seemed to have come to an end. People around were running forward. Directly in front of them were two towering mountains, which were full of broken swords, forming a canyon in the middle with no end in sight. The canyon was shrouded in black fog, and one could vaguely feel that a powerful spiritual energy was surrounding the canyon, but it was unknown where exactly it was.
"A spiritual treasure has appeared," Bai Suiyou wiped the blood off his face, "Now all the cultivators are rushing in to grab it. They are not even in the foundation-building stage, and each one is stronger than the other."
As soon as the voice fell, Qin Wanwan heard a ding in her mind, and a progress bar appeared on the panel:
Mission 2: Find the sword in the sword tomb, show your talent for the first time, 90% completed, core mission tips: Get the natal sword, Yuan Ning
When Qin Wanwan got the task, Jian Xingzhi also got the task at the same time.
Mission 5: Assist the master to obtain the natal sword, points +1000
Love side quest: Assist any male with a face value of 90+ to save the hero, points +50
The two looked at each other. Jian Xingzhi saw fatigue in Qin Wanwan's eyes, while Qin Wanwan saw frustration in Jian Xingzhi's eyes.
"Do you want to take the sword?" Jian Xingzhi felt that he had regained his strength. "I'll help you!"
Qin Wanwan looked at him enviously: "Young man, aren't you tired? Doesn't your head hurt?"
"Let's set off, you carry me on your back," Jian Xingzhi said without any burden, "We can rest on the way! I'm experienced in handling such situations, don't worry."
Having said that, Jian Xingzhi pressed Qin Wanwan's shoulder, used the force to stand up, turned around and looked at Bai Suiyou: "Where is Xie Gutang?"
Bai Suiyou pointed to the canyon and said, "Xie Daojun has also gone in."
"south wind."
Jian Xingzhi waved to Nanfeng beside him, and Nanfeng immediately turned into a big ant. Jian Xingzhi raised his head and looked at Qin Wanwan who had just stood up beside him: "Help her up."
Qin Wanwan glanced at the huge Nanfeng in front of her and suddenly laughed: "Hey."
After saying that, she grabbed Jian Xingzhi's hand and threw it. Jian Xingzhi was caught off guard and was thrown directly onto the ant. He rolled over and climbed up. Qin Wanwan turned over and rode on Nanfeng, holding her hands on Nanfeng's bladeless tentacles and turned her head to look at him: "Does it feel good to be thrown?"
Jian Xingzhi realized in an instant that she was taking revenge on him. He gritted his teeth and laughed, "Great."
"Oh," Qin Wanwan nodded, "Then I'll dump you a few more times in the future."
After saying that, Qin Wanwan pulled his arm around her waist and said, "Hold me."
Jian Xingzhi was stunned. He didn't know whether his sea of consciousness was in chaos or his brain was in chaos. He hugged Qin Wanwan stiffly and watched Qin Wanwan greet Bai Suiyou: "Friend Bai, let's go."
Bai Suiyou nodded when he heard this, and Qin Wanwan shouted, "Charge!"
Nanfeng began to rush towards the canyon. Bai Suiyou stood on the mourning stick and rushed into the canyon with Qin Wanwan.
Nanfeng ran very fast, and its body was smooth. Jian Xingzhi had no other points of force except Qin Wanwan, so he could only hug Qin Wanwan's waist tightly and lean on her back to sort out his sea of consciousness.
He felt that the touch of his hands was very strange, and there was something indescribable... strange.
He controlled his thoughts and breathing, leaned against Qin Wanwan and opened his eyes in the strong wind. He saw Qin Wanwan's clear and determined eyes from the side, and thought of the hand that broke through the sky and reached out. His thoughts were complicated, and for a moment, he was indescribably moved.
"I didn't expect you would wait."
Jian Xingzhi was a man who spoke whatever he thought. Qin Wanwan felt a little unhappy for a moment after hearing what he said.
She had never thought that one day she would experience a life-and-death struggle, but when she thought of Jian Xingzhi carrying the electric shock gun to save Xie Gutang, she felt that what she did was nothing.
Just as she was about to speak humbly, she heard Jian Xingzhi call her—
"My dear," he said with a voice full of emotion, "I have loved you for a long time."
Qin Wanwan's hands trembled, and she gritted her teeth in anger: "Long Aotian, if there is any problem, you should repeat what I said as your father."
"Yes," Jian Xingzhi agreed, "When I regain my status, I will go find your father and become his sworn brother."
"Don't ask me to wait." Qin Wanwan laughed angrily, "Don't ask me to wait."
As her father, should we become sworn brothers
See if he doesn't tear that kid apart.
As they were talking, the three of them and their pet rushed into the canyon. From a distance, they saw a glowing sword mountain on the top of a mountain. There were people fighting all around. Xie Gutang was in the crowd, inseparable from a young man in white. Qin Wanwan and Jian Xingzhi saw them from a distance, and Jian Xingzhi gasped, "That rabbit!"
Qin Wanwan looked carefully and found that the person entangled with Xie Gutang was Jun Shu!
In addition to Jun Shu, Song Xinian was also there. People from many sects, both known and unknown, gathered together. The scene was in chaos and no one knew what was going on.
"Jun Shu, the gate to immortality is only a legend. Did you ask your father about this before you broke into the sword tomb?"
Xie Gutang's sword fell like rain, chasing Jun Shu. Jun Shu sneered: "Whether I ask or not, what does it have to do with you?"
As he spoke, Song Xinian jumped onto Jianshan Mountain and began to patrol, looking for something.
Qin Wanwan and the others stopped far away. Qin Wanwan looked around and asked in confusion: "What are they doing?"
"Yeah," Jian Xingzhi frowned, "They're already starting to talk about it when they don't even know where the spiritual treasure is?"
Hearing this, Jun Shu, who was standing next to him, trembled. Jian Xingzhi shouted to Xie Gutang, "Xie Daojun, why don't you wait for the Lingbao to come out before you come?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sound wave from Jun Shu collided violently with Xie Gutang's sword. Xie Gutang had just consumed too much energy in the secret realm. Although Jun Shu was one realm lower than him, he was still on par with him, and both of them were knocked away.
"Thank you, Daojun."
Qin Wanwan turned over, rushed to Xie Gutang, and helped Xie Gutang up from the ground.
Song Xinian landed behind Jun Shu and helped Jun Shu up. Jian Xingzhi walked to the middle and raised his hand: "Everyone, listen to me."
Everyone looked at each other after hearing this. Jun Shu stared at Jian Xingzhi and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't tell where he had seen him before. He saluted cautiously and said, "May I ask who this fellow Taoist is?"
"Oh, this is Long Aotian," Jian Xingyi pointed at Qin Wanwan, Bai Suiyou and others behind him, "These are all my friends."
Jun Shu was silent. He was trying to guess the origin of Jian Xingzhi's cultivation. He looked like a Jindan, but he was full of aura and people dared not underestimate him. Xie Gutang was already troublesome enough. If Long Aotian came to help Xie Gutang, it would be a difficult problem.
Before confirming the friend or foe, Jun Shu did not dare to say too much. Jian Xingzhi looked around and suggested to everyone: "Everyone, now the treasure has not appeared, it seems not worthwhile. Why don't you all stay away and go find the treasure. When the treasure comes out, everyone can set a fair competition standard. Is that right?"
"No!" Xie Gutang coughed up blood lightly, "The Linglong Jade must not fall into their hands. We can't give them the opportunity to search for treasure."
"Then why don't they kill you to find the treasure?" Jian Xingzhi turned to look at Xie Gutang, "If you don't listen to me, I won't help you. Do you think you can win now?"
Xie Gutang's face froze. Jian Xingzhi turned to look at Jun Shu: "What do you think? If you don't agree, then I will help Xie Gutang."
Jun Shu's face turned very ugly when he heard this. He thought the man in front of him was very confident and was afraid that he was a master. After holding it in for a long time, he finally bowed: "Junior has no intention."
Jian Xingzhi nodded and called Qin Wanwan: "Qin, come here."
Qin Wanwan walked to Jian Xingzhi nervously. At that moment, she felt like the net of a ping-pong table, which could be attacked from both sides at any time. The C position put a lot of pressure on her. She stood in front of Jian Xingzhi and couldn't help shivering.
Jian Xingzhi raised his hand and placed it on her shoulder, then stood behind her: "Come, feel it, where is your natal sword?"
Qin Wanwan looked up blankly, looking at the sword mountain in front of her. She only felt something calling faintly in her chest, but she could not find who it was.
Jian Xingzhi saw that she didn't respond for a long time, then he raised his hand and pointed at the calm man on the mountain: "Hey, come here."
After saying that, the sword quickly flew down the mountain and stopped in front of Qin Wanwan.
Everyone was stunned. In the past, when other people went to the sword tomb to choose swords, those sword spirits were the souls of famous people after their death. They all had terrible tempers. To choose a sword, they had to fight a life-and-death battle with those sword spirits. But how could they have seen such a docile appearance of the sword spirits
Jian Xingzhi completely ignored the surprise of others and turned to introduce Qin Wanwan seriously: "This sword is good. It has served more than a dozen masters. It kills evil and is not crazy yet. It is a very mature sword. What do you think of it?"
Qin Wanwan didn't say anything, but stared at the sword with a frown. Jun Shu and the others looked at Jian Xingzhi with doubts, and their hands holding the jade flute began to sweat.
Xie Gutang looked at the summoned flying sword and murmured in shock: "Senior Wen... Senior Wen Yu..."
The sword spirit was recognized and lowered his head in shame, not daring to look at Xie Gutang.
Seeing Qin Wanwan's expression, Jian Xingzhi asked Wen Yu to go ahead. He raised his hand and summoned another sword in front of Qin Wanwan: "What about that one? This one is a sword spirit with a bad temper, but the sword is very good. Do you like it?"
"Senior Fengluan..."
Xie Gutang felt that the world was a little magical.
One is fine, but how could there be another one that is so obedient
Jun Shu and others subconsciously took a step back.
Jian Xingzhi found that Qin Wanwan still didn't like it, so he got a few more. After Qin Wanwan rejected them one by one, Jian Xingzhi thought for a while and said, "Don't you have any feelings about these swords?"
"I feel..." Qin Wanwan frowned, "It feels like someone is calling me."
Everyone looked over together and saw Qin Wanwan walking forward: "But it's in the mountains."
Having said that, she squatted down and placed her hands at the foot of the mountain in front of her.
The moment my hands were placed on the mountain, the sense of calling became even stronger.
Xie Gutang became nervous: "The Sword Mountain is so huge, can Fellow Daoist Qin sense any more obvious places?"
Jian Xingzhi nodded: "I understand."
Everyone was confused, not quite understanding what Jian Xingzhi understood, and then they heard Jian Xingzhi say casually: "Then flatten the mountain, and see if you are inside."
As soon as these words came out, Xie Gutang's face changed drastically: "Senior, you are not good!"
Jian Xingzhi nodded: "Why not?"
"This is Sword Mountain, where all the sword spirits return. If we flatten the mountain, the sword spirits will probably not allow it."
After Xie Gutang's tactful reminder, Jian Xingzhi nodded: "You have a point."
Xie Gutang breathed a sigh of relief, and then he heard Jian Xingzhi speak immediately: "Let them move."
"With so many seniors here," Xie Gutang was surprised, "it's not easy to talk..."
"The two hills next to us, make way for some land," Jian Xingzhi said without waiting for Xie Gutang's reaction. He looked back at the sword spirits on the two hills next to him and commanded them, "Hurry."
The sword intent that defeated several sword masters was instantly sensed by the sword spirits. The sword spirits were more sensitive than ordinary people and realized that the newcomers were powerful and at the top of sword intent, so it was easy for them to be defeated.
In an instant, the two mountain sword spirits squeezed to the side, leaving a space.
Jian Xingzhi looked at the sword spirit on the mountain in front of him and warned: "I will give you a quarter of an hour to move quickly, otherwise I will demolish the mountain."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the swords flew out of the mountain and were neatly inserted into the next mountain.
Everyone stared at what was happening. Jian Xingzhi clapped his hands and looked at Nanfeng: "Nanfeng, get bigger and dig up this mountain."
"Yes." Nanfeng jumped down from Qin Wanwan's shoulder and immediately turned into an ant as tall as a mountain and began to dig the mountain.
Xie Gutang saw the dirt flying all over the mountain. After realizing what was happening, he knelt on the ground with a plop. He seemed to be completely unable to accept the scene in front of him. He murmured, "Jianshan... the foundation of our ancestors..."
Qin Wanwan saw Xie Gutang was completely stunned, and hurried to pull him up, trying to comfort him: "Xie Daojun, please get up, we will pile up the mountain for you in a while, and let the sword spirits return to their places... Oh, and there are also spiritual treasures, we will help you find them, we will compensate you, we will compensate..."
"Right, right, right." Bai Suiyou also hurried to comfort Xie Gutang, "Fellow Daoist Xie, the mountain is a dead thing. You all in the Tianjian Sect have agreed. You don't need to blame yourself so much."
Jun Shu and his companions watched in horror as Jian Xingzhi led Nanfeng to dig the mountain. Song Xinian swallowed his saliva and spoke haltingly, "Young Master Jun, you... you have dug up the sword tomb of the Heavenly Sword Sect... Are you afraid that you will... even... even... steal the Linglong Jade?"
Jun Shu took a deep breath and said, "Rob."
He gritted his teeth and said: "We have to wait for the opportunity to ascend to the Immortal Gate. We are many in number, don't be afraid!"
When Jian Xingzhi was directing Nanfeng to dig the mountain like a foreman, Qin Wanwan helped Xie Gutang to the side and comforted him together with Bai Suiyou. Xie Gutang took a break and accepted the fact that the sword tomb had been dug. He drank a sip of water tiredly and then looked at Qin Wanwan: "Fellow Daoist Qin, I have a question. I wonder why Fellow Daoist Qin and Senior Long came to Tianjian Sect?"
"Just to find my natal sword," Qin Wanwan said, a little unhappily, "I'm sorry to cause you trouble."
"The Sword Tomb of the Tianjian Sect is where all the swords return to. Our ancestor has ordered us to do our best to help all the sword practitioners in the world find their own way. It is a blessing for the Tianjian Sect that Fellow Daoist Qin came to the Tianjian Sect to look for the sword."
"Don't worry," Qin Wanwan understood what Xie Gutang meant, "I know you are worried. Don't worry, we are not here to cause trouble."
Xie Gutang nodded. Qin Wanwan hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, "Fellow Daoist Xie, what are you guys robbing today?"
"If I'm not mistaken," Bai Suiyou looked at Xie Gutang, "could it be the legendary Linglong Jade?"
Xie Gutang looked unhappy and nodded.
Qin Wanwan was curious: "Is Linglong Jade a pet?"
"The exquisite jade is the object that opens the door to immortality." Xie Gutang said solemnly, "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Qin has ever heard of the carp leaping over the dragon gate?"
"I've heard that this Dragon Gate is actually the legendary Gate to Immortality."
"Yes," Xie Gutang nodded, "The Immortal Gate is real. It was once a gift from the Heaven to the Dragon Clan. Only the Dragon Clan can cross the Immortal Gate and ascend to heaven. Thousands of years ago, a cultivator suddenly created a secret method that can transform a human cultivator into a dragon by swallowing dragon pills alive, hiding the truth from the world and ascending to the Immortal Gate as a human. This secret method requires a dragon to be kept in a small cage, bound with secret techniques, and taken pills for nearly a hundred years. After that, the dragon pill is taken to complete it."
“Compared to their own cultivation, Dengxianmen was undoubtedly a shortcut to ascending to heaven, and cultivators flocked to this method. As a result, the dragon race was slaughtered and almost extinct. Finally, the Dragon King reached an agreement with several major sects to destroy the exquisite jade that opened the Dengxianmeng, cutting off the road to immortality, and finally ending the catastrophe of the dragon race.”
"The Dengxian Gate was not completely destroyed?"
Qin Wanwan immediately realized the problem. Was the slaughter of the dragon clan related to those cultivators? To be able to help the Dragon King destroy the Ascension Gate, the dragon clan must have given them some benefits. Now that the Ascension Gate has reappeared, it must be that the destruction of the Ascension Gate that year was inconsistent with the legend.
"Linglong Jade is the most precious treasure in the fairy world after all. At that time, there were not many resources in the major sects, so Linglong Jade was divided into five and given to the major sects. Wherever Linglong Jade is, spiritual energy gathers, which nourishes the sect's spiritual veins and secret realm. It is a treasure. For example," Xie Gutang looked up and saw the half-dug sword mountain. He clenched his fists, controlled his heartache, and pretended to be calm. "The sword tomb of the Tianjian Sect began with Linglong Jade."
"Then," Qin Wanwan didn't understand, "Why did Linglongyu suddenly appear again?"
"Because," Bai Suiyou laughed, "someone has recaptured the Azure Dragon and rebuilt the Dengxian Gate."
"These people," Xie Gutang said with disdain, "are either those who seek shortcuts, or..." Xie Gutang's voice sank, "There are people who are not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao and cannot ascend to heaven at all. If they ascend to heaven through the Dengxian Gate, the Heavenly Dao will be angry, and I'm afraid that the whole small world will be implicated, and the road to immortality will be cut off."
"So, you want to snatch the Linglong Jade because you are afraid that someone else will obtain the Linglong Jade and ascend to heaven, thus blocking the path to immortality in your world?"
Qin Wanwan understood, and Xie Gutang nodded.
At that moment, Nanfeng made a "grunt" sound, and the blade pierced into a hard object. Nanfeng paused, and Qin Wanwan felt her heartbeat "thump", as if it was about to stop.
Jian Xingzhi noticed something unusual and with a quick sweep of his spiritual sense, he saw clearly what Nanfeng had dug out.
Jun Shu, Xie Gutang and others rushed forward at the same time. Jian Xingzhi moved even faster. He raised his hand and drew his sword, slashing forward to create a path.
"Wait a minute!" Jian Xingzhi stopped everyone.
Jun Shu restrained his emotions and looked at Jian Xingzhi coldly: "Dao Jun, you said you want to compete fairly."
"It's fair," Jian Xingzhi turned to look at Jun Shu, "You send one person, and we send one person to the side, and we just stand in the line. When the time comes, let Nanfeng dig. When the spiritual treasure comes out, we rush together, and whoever grabs it gets it."
Jun Shu heard this, glanced at Song Xinian beside him, and smiled: "Well, listen to the senior."
"Thank you Gutang," Jian Xingzhi turned to look at him, "I'll grab the Linglong Jade for you, and you help me protect Qin."
Upon hearing this, Xie Gutang hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you, senior!"
Having said that, Jian Xingzhi thrust his sword into the sword mountain beside him, turned around and stood in front of the finish line. Jun Shu and Song Xinian discussed and decided to stand at the same starting line as Jian Xingzhi.
Nanfeng started digging the mountain again. Jun Shu glanced at Jian Xingzhi and said, "Senior, have you been there before?"
"In a dream?" Jian Xingzhi moved his hands and feet and began to do left and right lunges to stretch his ligaments.
Jun Shu held the white jade flute in his hand and stood beside him elegantly: "Although this is the first time I meet you, senior, I always feel like I have seen you before."
"Don't even think about getting close to me."
Jun Shu: “…”
As he spoke, Nan Feng threw away the last bit of dirt, and a silver sword stuck in the dirt appeared.
The moment the sword was completely exposed, dozens of rays of light burst out from the ground and condensed above the sword. At that same moment, without any preparation, Jian Xingzhi and Jun Shu rushed towards the shining place at the same time.
Jun Shu was a little slower than Jian Xingzhi, but Song Xinian next to him was well prepared and pounced towards Jian Xingzhi!
Qin Wanwan didn't have time to react, she saw Xie Gutang move faster, hugging Song Xinian, and both of them fell to the ground.
But in an instant, the two sides were entangled again. Jian Xingzhi and Jun Shu rushed to the crystal stone at the same time and attacked together. The two blocked each other. Jian Xingzhi held Jun Shu's head and Jun Shu held Jian Xingzhi's waist. Jian Xingzhi shouted: "Let go of me, you stinky rabbit!"
Hearing the shout, the shadow of the firecracker exploding in the toilet came to him. Jun Shu held his breath. Jian Xing kicked him away, grabbed the jade piece in the light and rushed out, shouting: "Qin, put your consciousness into the sword, kill directly!"
As he spoke, he led everyone to run wildly towards the Sword Mountain not far away. Like a nimble monkey, he grabbed the broken jade in one hand and hung the other on the hilt of the sword, leaping on the Sword Mountain with his face.
The monks went all over the mountain to capture him, but Jian Xingzhi was like a fish in water on the Sword Mountain. The sword spirits of the entire Sword Mountain protected him without leaving any trace.
Qin Wanwan took advantage of Jian Xingzhi's disruption and rushed into the mountain. She raised her hand to grasp the rusty sword. Just as she grasped the sword, she heard an ancient and deep voice coming from afar.
"I am Yuan Ning, and you are a stranger?"
As soon as the voice came out, Qin Wanwan felt something surge into her heart, colliding with the call she received after entering the sword tomb. She grasped the long sword, opened her spiritual consciousness, and poured it into the sword body. She then used her spiritual consciousness to report the name of the sword spirit in the sword body: "Jishan Jun—"
Having said that, she began to pull the sword out with trembling hands. She clearly felt a domineering force coming from the sword, fighting against her for life and death.
The sword body vibrated, and the surrounding ground shook as well. Everyone looked at Qin Wanwan, and then they realized that this time the spiritual treasure included not only the Linglong Jade, but also such a sword.
However, Jian Xingzhi had already led everyone to rush up the Sword Mountain. No one thought much and jumped up and down following Jian Xingzhi. Jian Xingzhi saw Qin Wanwan holding the sword tightly in the light, and the sword refused to go down. Qin Wanwan pulled it out, and because she pulled too hard, the flesh on the palm of her hand was torn, and blood poured down from the hilt and slowly fell all over the sword.
Wherever the blood passed, the rust on the sword disappeared, revealing a smooth and sharp surface. Qin Wanwan closed her eyes, thinking of nothing else, and only focused on fighting against the sword, feeling the sword go up inch by inch. Until the last moment, she pulled with all her strength and told Yuan Ning her name: "Qin Wanwan!"
The moment the sound fell, a magic seal flew into the sword spirit's forehead. Qin Wanwan stumbled backwards and was about to fall. A hand gently rested on her waist to steady her.
Qin Wanwan was breathing heavily and was about to say thank you when she felt the blade against her neck.
Qin Wanwan stood there in a daze.
"Fellow Daoist Long." Bai Suiyou's voice sounded.
Jian Xingzhi stood on the top of Jian Mountain and looked up. He saw that the mourning stick in Bai Suiyou's hand had turned into a dagger and was pressed against Qin Wanwan's neck.
He was still the same as usual, with clear and clean eyes, gentle temperament, and even the action of kidnapping people was done gently and gracefully, making it difficult for people to have any ill intentions.
"Bai Suiyou?" Jian Xingzhi frowned. Bai Suiyou tilted his head and said with a smile: "Linglongyu, hand it over."
