The Sword Named No Way Out - Chapter 55

“What, even I can’t enter?” The limp Liu Xuzhi was supported by the disciples of the Medical Sect, standing at the door of Ying Kai’s bedroom, holding the “Secret History of the Leader of the League” in his sleeve, and said disappointedly: “I haven’t seen Brother Ying yet. The heroic appearance of the feather fan and scarf has been around for a long time, and I yearn for it, but I can’t even think about it—really even I can’t see it?”

The gatekeeper disciple thought that if the leader wakes up later and sees you enjoying watching how he and Cangyang Mountain Master Xu Qingqing, I and I will hold each other for three years, I am afraid that he will vomit blood on the spot and then pass out alive: ” Lord Lesheng, Sect Master Xu left a message when he left just now, no one is allowed to enter until the leader wakes up, even Master Yizong was stopped outside…”

Liu Xuzhi sighed in disappointment, and was unwilling to give it another try, when suddenly his name rang in his ears: “Liu Xuzhi—”

Le Sheng who was named: “?”

Immediately afterwards, an irresistible force lifted him up, passed through several long corridors like clouds and fog, and flew out of the gate of the side hall in the air. Xu Shuangce was standing beside the huge Blood River Cart, holding a The familiar five-string guqin is Fuxiqin.

“I said Brother Xu, you…”

Liu Xuzhi didn’t even have time to ask, he was “sent” into the giant car with a flick of his sleeves, and then Xu Shuangce pulled Gong Wei into the car door, and the four divine birds uttered a loud cry at the same time.

The venerable masters of the famous families in the side hall came one after another, and said in surprise: “Why did Sect Master Xu leave by himself?!” “Didn’t he tell me to stay behind and not be allowed to leave Mount Dai?” “Could it be that Ying Chenyuan woke up?! “…

Yu Chirui chased him out of the hall, and looked at Gong Wei in the car with a blank face, and Gong Wei also looked at him with a blank face through the window, both of them had a big ignorant word written in their eyes. At this time, Xu Shuangce’s voice full of spiritual power spread in all directions centered on the blood river cart, breaking everyone’s discussion:

“The leader is still seriously injured, but there are clues to the chaos in Dingxianling. I will go to Tianmenguan to find out the truth. Anyone who leaves Daishan half a step without authorization will be treated as a suspect!”

The aftershocks of the last word continued, and the four divine birds soared into the sky, bringing the gorgeous giant car high into the sky.

Poor Liu Xuzhi was pushed back by the momentum, and his whole body fell on the coffee table. Before he could get up, the front of the car turned north, which caught him off guard and rolled under the coffee table. He didn’t get up for a long time.

And Gong Wei is already very experienced, holding the edge of the table tightly with both hands, and shaking his upper body: “Master just said that there is a clue to the chaos in Xianling? What clue?”

Xu Shuangce sat upright and motionless like a mountain, stretched out his hand and pressed the back of Gong Wei’s hand, and said, “The chaos in Dingxianling was caused by the ghost cultivators in Linjiangdu, and the purpose was to find the soldiers who destroyed the world in the illusion.”

With his other slender five fingers, he pressed the Fuxiqin on the table. This piano was “borrowed” from Meng Yunfei before getting into the car – the owner did not express any objection, probably because he is still unconscious.

“The ghost cultivator obviously knows the exact location where the Exterminating Soldiers are buried, but it still takes a lot of trouble to control the bones of Fahua Immortal Venerable to escape from the Dingxian Mausoleum, and then let the bones travel thousands of miles to pick up the mechanism giant for him-this should be His own abilities are greatly limited, or it may be because those who send troops need to meet certain conditions.”

Gong Wei asked doubtfully, “What conditions?”

Xu Shuang remained silent for a moment before saying, “Perhaps only those who have had contact with it can wake it up again.”

This is ridiculous, there is no one who can be connected with that terrifying giant than the person who created it, the person who destroyed it, and at most the person who fought it. Gong Wei is sure that he has never even seen that thing, why does Xu Shuangce think that his bones can lift giants out of the center of the earth?

“Ghost Xiu was chasing you everywhere in Linjiang, so when he appeared at the Yanchun Terrace, I thought his target was still only you, but in fact I was wrong.” Xu Shuangce’s eyes were not far away, his limbs were swollen and weak One of the flattened Liu Xu cast a glance: “The sound waves of the Fuxiqin can detect the invisible obstacles in the ground, so the ghost cultivator ordered Liu Xu to be imprisoned in the mirror technique, and then rushed to slaughter Meng Yunfei without stopping. In this way, the only two in the world who can play the Fuxiqin can be eliminated. Naturally, it will cut off our way to find the World Extinguishing Soldier.”

Gong Wei was surprised: “So the soldiers are really buried in Tianmen Pass?”

Xu Shuangce said: “It seems that it should be.”

Gong Wei suddenly realized something that sent chills down his spine, and forced a smile: “But Master, even if we find the soldier, we will not be able to get it out from the depths of the earth. We… have no one with him. That World Extinguishing Soldier…has there been any connection.”

The carriage shook slightly, and the halo of the night pearl was hazy. Xu Shuangce’s profile didn’t move, and it took him a while to lower his eyes and say two words lightly:

“not necessarily.”

Gong Wei felt a chill go straight to his throat, for a split second he thought Xu Shuangce’s next sentence would be: Your bones can raise soldiers, but you yourself are even more capable?

But to his surprise, Xu Shuangce didn’t say a word.

He just stared at his hand resting on the strings quietly, Gong Wei looked at him full of doubts, and suddenly absurdly had a sense of understanding – the person Xu Shuangce wanted to talk about was himself.

He actually felt that there was some kind of connection between himself and the World Extinguishing Soldier?

This is even more unbelievable. Xu Shuangce thinks he is one of the three types of people who created it, destroyed it, or fought against it?

Gong Wei was both surprised and confused, but saw Xu Shuangce took a breath, and abruptly changed the subject: “Ying Kai has been plotted against at this time and his life and death are still uncertain. According to the law of the Immortal League, all the lords of famous families must immediately go to Mount Dai to punish Shu. Palace, and I am no exception. And the body of Fahua Immortal Venerable escaped at this time, so he must take this opportunity to go to Tianmenguan to look for the soldier who destroyed the world.”

“Regardless of what methods he used to recruit Ying Kai, the opponent’s series of arrangements for diverting the tiger away from the mountain are very tight. The purpose is to find the soldiers before us. If we are still staying in Daishan at this moment, it will be a waste of time. , hit the opponent’s arms.”

Gong Wei nodded thoughtfully, and saw Liu Xuzhi supporting the floor weakly not far away, and was moved: “I have never heard Brother Xu say so many words at once, but now he is expressing his thoughts directly, I think it is because he is in a cheerful mood.” Congratulations for being talkative! Praise and admiration! Then according to Brother Xu, what does the mastermind behind the scenes want to get the World Exterminating Soldiers?”

“…”

“Cheerful and talkative” Xu Shuangce sat down with her eyes down, her face was handsome and indifferent, her thin lips were tightly closed.

There was silence in the car.

“Ahem!” Gong Wei cleared his throat in embarrassment, pretending to be innocent and said, “I heard from the master that the World Exterminating Soldier has been completely destroyed, so now the ghost cultivator wants to dig it out of the heart of the earth to do it.” what?”

Xu Shuangce shook his head and said, “I don’t know.”

Liu Xuzhi opened his mouth: “…”

“But don’t worry.” Xu Shuangce opened the jade curtain on the car window and said softly, “After we finish that thing for him, the truth will naturally come to light.”

When the Blood River car was empty, the time elapsed inside and outside the car was different. They had already left the hinterland of the Central Plains and arrived near the border. I saw that the sun had passed the middle of the sky outside the window, but there was no light in the dark, and the mountains, rivers and hills on the distant ground seemed to be covered by a layer of white mist. On the farther horizon, a cold wave that stretches for thousands of miles is faintly surging like life.

“Ah,” Liu Xuzhi forgot the doubts that were ignored just now, he leaned forward and frowned and said, “No, the climate at Tianmen Pass is abnormal all year round, I’m afraid it may catch up with the abnormal phenomenon again.”

Only Le Sheng, who has lived near Tianmen Pass for a long time, has a better understanding of the local celestial phenomena. Gong Wei asked, “Is the earth shaking?”

“The dark cold wave is coming from the sky, it’s not an earthquake.” Liu Xuzhi narrowed his eyes to observe the sun for a moment, and said: “According to this season, it may be a black rainbow penetrating the sun.”

Heihong Guanri’s sky is ominous, but Tianmenguan is close to the extremely northern glacier, so it is not surprising that there is anything, it can only be said that luck is not so good.

Xu Shuangce finally moved his hand away from the Fuxiqin, and said calmly, “Brother Liu, please.”

Liu Xuzhi’s incident can be regarded as **** bad luck. He has been stagnant in the combined void stage for many years after he broke through the golden core, knowing that he may not be able to break through the Mahayana in this life, and he is not interested in ascension. He just wants to stay in Yanchun Terrace to enjoy the moon, play the piano, bury flowers in tears, and be a romantic. Elegant people, by the way, listen to the not-so-elegant little stories of fellow immortals. However, after meeting Xu Shuangce this time, he first suffered from the mirror technique, then he injured his disciple, owed Mu Duozhu 20,000 taels of gold, and was finally forced to come to this extremely cold place thousands of miles away to play the piano and perform art. , It’s really more than a miserable word.

However, Sect Master Xu is here, no matter how reluctant he is, it’s useless, so he can only take the piano with a long sigh, and flick his fingers—Dang!

There was a sudden sound of spiritual power, and Gong Wei was suddenly pulled into a familiar embrace, and his ears were covered with hands from behind, and there was no sound from the outside world.

He turned his head and looked back, just in time to meet Xu Shuangce with drooping eyelashes, and their gazes collided lightly.

A series of long and short notes centered on the Blood River Che, spread from high altitude to all directions, forming invisible waves sinking into the earth. Liu Xuzhi closed his eyes and tilted his ears as if he was listening to something. After a quarter of an hour, his ten fingers suddenly stopped like a storm, and he opened his eyes and said, “Yes! Continue to the north for four hundred miles, and there is a ground crack at the end of the glacier!”

The damage left by the mirror technique was enormous, and now his spiritual power was even more depleted, panting while wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, exhausted and relieved: “Liu is lucky to fulfill his mission, Brother Xu, can you let me go…Brother Xu? “

Xu Shuangce withdrew his hand under Liu Xuzhi’s shocked gaze, and let go of Gong Wei’s ear.

Gong Wei hurriedly got up from his arms and climbed onto the cushion on the other side, with a calm expression and hot ears.

“…”

After a moment of silence, Liu Xuzhi suddenly realized, clapped his palms and praised endlessly: “Brother Xu is dedicated to his disciples and meticulous, he is really a role model for my generation! Thinking back to how negligent I was as a teacher before, I am ashamed!”

Xu Shuangce turned a deaf ear and looked directly past him: “Surrender.”

Following his landing, the four divine birds screamed at the same time, and swooped down suddenly.

Before Liu Xuzhi could sit still, he fell to the ground with a bang, and at the same time Xu Shuangce firmly held down Gong Wei’s hand. The giant car split through the turbulent cold fog on both sides like a sharp arrow, and it landed on the ground with a bang after about half a cup of tea.

Immediately, the car door opened, and the wind and snow rushed in screaming.

At this time, it has reached the Tianmen Pass, the sky and the earth are extremely cold and the spiritual energy is thin, and it is absolutely impossible to control the sword anymore. Gong Wei stepped out of the car door with her raised temple hair. The spiritual power caused by the serious injury was too empty to protect her body. She immediately shivered and was wrapped in a warm outer robe.

I saw Xu Shuangce spread out his robe and hugged him tightly by his side, the wind and snow couldn’t invade at all, and the breath of white sandalwood rushed towards his face. Then he held down the trembling Liu Xuzhi with the other hand, stood in the snow and raised his foot—

The icy and snowy land with exposed black rocks all backed away, and when their footsteps fell, they had already reached the lee of the hillside.

Gong Wei looked up from the gap in his outer robe, and they were only more than ten zhang away from the hillside where they just started. It seems that this place is indeed barren of aura, and even the force of the number one man in the world has been suppressed to the limit, and it is estimated that there is less than 10% of the remaining 10% by others.

Xu Shuangce asked gently: “Can you still support it?”

Liu Xuzhi hurriedly complained: “Brother Xu, do you know that I have lived in Yanchun Terrace for decades, where it is warm and spring-like all the year round, I can’t get used to it at all…Brother Xu?”

Liu Xuzhi was stunned to see that Xu Shuangce was lowering his head, with a calm and gentle expression, looking at the little beloved disciple shrunk in the robe of Cangyang Sect Master.

Gong Wei’s cheeks were slightly hot: “Thank you, Master, for protecting you.”

Xu Shuangce nodded slightly: “Tell me when you can’t hold on.”

“…”

Liu Xuzhi opened his mouth in astonishment for a while, and suddenly realized again.

“It’s no wonder Brother Xu is so cheerful and talkative just now, it must be because now that he has accepted young disciples, he has wiped out all the clumps in his chest.” Liu Xuzhi was relieved, and praised with palms: “It seems that the saying that teaching helps each other is true. Brother Xu has benefited a lot!”

Once again, Brother Xu ignored him, and the energy of magic that shrunk to an inch rose from the surroundings.

Walking from here to the Rift Valley mentioned by Liu Xuzhi, there is a distance of more than 400 miles, and it has almost entered the range of the extreme north.

Since ancient times, the extreme north has been the point of no return for exiled criminals. Changsun Chengfeng said, “Even great masters like you and me may not be able to escape unscathed.” Bei is afraid that it is worse than worse, if it encounters such an ominous celestial phenomenon like the cold rainbow penetrating the sun again, it will be so bad that it is unimaginable.

Gong Wei was hugged by Xu Shuangce in his robe, her cheek was pressed against his firm shoulder, the desperation and confusion that had been deliberately ignored surged into her heart again.

The extreme north is desolate and barren, and there is no spiritual energy in the world. No matter whether you are the master of Cangyang or the Mahayana master, you may not be able to exert one percent of your spiritual power. It is no different from climbing a mountain with ten thousand shackles on your back.

——And seventeen years ago, Xu Shuang rushed thousands of miles, guarding the top of the glacier that Du Kaixun must pass through in exile, killed him with a sword, and walked away without telling anyone for many years.

What was he thinking at that time?

At this moment, everyone stopped, and Xu Shuang said, “Here we are.”

Only then did Gong Wei poke his head out of the warm arms curiously, and saw not far ahead, a huge rift valley appeared on the glacier that stretched without end. Under the huge cut mouth.

The billowing coldness, almost condensed into a black substance, is rising from the abyss and going straight to the sky.

Almost at the same time, a sense of absurdity and clarity flashed through the depths of Gong Wei’s primordial spirit—there seemed to be something really under the abyss.

How could he have such a feeling?

Gong Wei didn’t have time to think, only heard Xu Shuangce say softly: “There is something under the abyss.”

“Brother Xu, Brother Xu, you see we’ve come here, why don’t I stay up there and wait for you…Brother Xu!”

Poor Liu Xuzhi’s throat was blocked by the silencing technique before he finished speaking, and he was staggered and pulled to the edge of the cliff by an invisible force, and then his feet were empty: “Ah—”

Liu Xuzhi tried his best to spread his sleeves in the air, trying his best to adopt a graceful and elegant posture like a flying fairy, and whizzed down to the bottomless center of the earth.

Immediately afterwards, Gong Wei’s body jumped up, and Xu Shuangce beat him up and copied him: “Hold tight.”

Gong Wei subconsciously hugged Xu Shuangce’s slender neck with both hands, and the two jumped into the icy abyss together!

The sound of the wind whizzed upwards, like a sharp knife scraping his ears. The falling process lasted for a full quarter of an hour, and then rapidly slowed down until it came to a steady stop.

Xu Shuangce’s feet were still half a foot off the ground, his robe sleeves and temple hair were brushed off, and then came from the side: Bang!

Gong Wei looked at the reputation, and saw Liu Xuzhi hit the ground like a cannon, and he smashed a deep hole in an instant at a height of 10,000 feet.

Gong Wei: “…”

It took a long while to see Lord Lesheng crawling out of the pit with a disheveled face, clutching his back and gritted his teeth, sighing: “Brother Xu, if you insist on letting me dance, I will dance. Can you let me know next time…Xu Brother? What are you?!”

I saw dim light at the bottom of the abyss, but there was no sound of wind, and strange heat was faintly coming from the rocks under my feet. Xu Shuangce’s feet finally landed firmly on the ground, and he also put down Gong Wei who was in his arms, and ordered in a low voice: “This place is strange, follow carefully as a teacher, don’t run around.”

Then he bent down slightly and tightened Gong Wei’s messy hair rope, and straightened his clothes before getting up and walking forward.

Liu Xuzhi watched all this with wide eyes, suddenly took a deep breath of enlightenment, and bowed his hands to Gong Wei sincerely: “The master-student love is so touching! From now on, I will learn to treat Yunfei like this!”

“…”

Under his admiring gaze, Gong Wei hesitated several times before saying politely: “It’s best to ask Mr. Meng what he thinks first.”

·

The glacial rift valley is as deep as ten thousand feet. When you look up, you can see the rugged and overlapping ice walls on both sides. The ice layer is refracted thousands of times by the sky, reflecting a large area of ​​dark blue, faint blue, and light blue interlaced fluorescence, which is very magnificent and strange.

The bare black rocks under the feet, the original landforms are intricate, like countless blood vessels in the body of a giant monster, winding to the unknown darkness ahead.

Liu Xuzhi played the Fuxiqin several times, but the aura of this dangerous place, which is rare in the world, is almost gone. Even the current music sage can’t play the sound waves that condense the spiritual energy, and can’t detect the hundreds of miles in front of him. underground space. Xu Shuangce asked him to put away the Fuxiqin. After concentrating for a moment, he seemed to sense something, and took Gong Wei’s hand and walked towards an inconspicuous stone path.

Liu Xuzhi was very surprised, and followed closely behind: “Brother Xu, how does he know how to go this way? Does the Mahayana Grandmaster have a unique way to perceive and distinguish the position from this darkness?”

Xu Shuangce didn’t answer, turned his feet and said, “Over there.”

It was indeed the direction he said, and even Gong Wei’s feeling became more and more obvious. There seemed to be some invisible force in front of him pulling his soul, attracting him to walk step by step in the predetermined direction.

But he doesn’t understand why.

In his limited memory, he has nothing to do with the legendary World Exterminating Soldier, and only saw him once in the illusion. Xu Shuangce naturally did the same.

Does this count as having a connection with it?

Liu Xuzhi managed to ignite a lighting talisman with the little spiritual power left, and tried to pick up a flat place to maintain a scribe’s demeanor, and couldn’t help asking: “Brother Xu, when the lord sent a message to me before, he said that the world-destroying soldier The place that was destroyed was a plain with mountains and city walls, why are we now under this glacier?”

Xu Shuangce said indifferently: “The sea has changed, that’s how it is.”

Liu Xuzhi couldn’t help being stunned: “How long will it take to turn the plains and hills into extremely cold glaciers? Could it be that the battle of annihilation you saw happened thousands of years ago?”

Xu Shuangce stopped suddenly.

With the light of the illuminating talisman, one can vaguely see that the road ahead suddenly breaks, and in the darkness, the height of the break is probably several feet. Xu Shuangce let go of Gong Wei’s hand, and the robe jumped to the ground lightly, then turned around to signal Gong Wei to also jump down, and firmly caught him with both hands.

Liu Xuzhi also jumped down, and then he heard Xu Shuangce succinctly say in the dark:

“Yes.”

Liu Xuzhi shook his head in surprise and sighed, but the road below the break was darker and more rugged than before, even he didn’t have the mood to speak, so he could only walk forward with his head bowed. Gong Wei was led by Xu Shuangce with one hand, and walked through a corridor that was only wide enough for one person to walk sideways without seeing his fingers. After walking in the dark for two quarters of an hour, a slight light finally lit up in front of him.

At this time, his primordial spirit suddenly and clearly sensed something, as if the three souls and seven souls were lifted up by someone.

just in front.

Gong Wei didn’t dare to show the slightest strangeness, only quickened his pace a little. However, there was really not even half an inch of flat ground here, so he stumbled on a rock unexpectedly, and before he had time to stand firm, he felt Xu Shuangce striding forward without stopping.

Gong Wei’s wrist was still being pulled by him, so he couldn’t help but staggered two steps before following him. He suddenly felt something while walking, and his heart sank slightly.

He said: “Master?”

Xu Shuangce hummed without looking back.

Gong Wei said cautiously: “Master, I sprained my ankle.”

Xu Shuangce’s pace slowed down a little, but he still didn’t look back: “It’s almost there.”

“…”

Gong Wei looked at his back, his pupils dilated slightly.

At this moment, the intricate trail at the bottom of the glacier finally came to an end, Xu Shuangce suddenly turned his footsteps, and his eyes suddenly opened up.

The dark wind whizzed towards the face, and a huge hollow dome appeared inside the mountain!

At the same moment, tens of feet away.

Liu Xuzhi lost his voice and said: “There is such a scene underground!”

I saw the light of the sky reflected from the thousand-ren ice wall above their heads, and the bottomless stratum cliff was under their feet. The billowing wind whizzed up from the cliff, like the cries of ghosts from **** that have not stopped for thousands of years, gathering into a mighty black dragon rushing up to the sky along the ice wall.

Anyone else would have been terrified, even a great master like Liu Xuzhi couldn’t help being terrified: “If I were a mortal who has never practiced Taoism, I’m afraid I would think that this is what the folks call the underworld…”

Xu Shuangce stood still, his eyes reflected the bottomless abyss under his feet: “It’s here.”

His straight tone made Liu Xuzhi even more horrified: “Then the World Exterminating Soldiers will sink below?”

“Yes.”

“Then… what is Brother Xu going to do now?”

Liu Xuzhi was full of doubts, but Xu Shuangce turned his head and glanced at him, then turned his gaze to Gong Wei who was holding his hand, and smiled slightly, with clear killing intent:

“My dear disciple, my teacher told you not to run around.”

Liu Xuzhi was so shocked that he couldn’t stop him, but Xu Shuang’s hand was like lightning, piercing Gong Wei’s chest with his palm in the blood splattering everywhere!

Gong Wei’s chest rose and fell, and he struggled to squeeze out two words: “…Master?”

He wanted to break free from the grip of the man in front of him, but it was too late.

I saw the vortex of spiritual power rising from the ground at the feet of “Xu Shuangce”, covering the whole body like black smoke, and dissipating in an uproar after a few breaths; It became a tall figure in a gray robe and hood!

“Ah,” its light and deep voice came from under the hood: “Have you been found?”

thump! With a loud bang, “Gong Wei” fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, and transformed into a prototype in the black smoke – a black and sinister little stone man.

Liu Xuzhi’s eyes widened in disbelief, but he saw Xu Shuangce suddenly turn around and flick his sleeves, and with one hand he shot out a sword-like energy, the aura cut through the black air billowing above the abyss in one fell swoop, and his surroundings were instantly cleared!

Tens of feet away, the abyss cracked on the other side.

A ghostly figure in a gray robe was also standing on the edge of the cliff, with the hood hanging down, the face could not be seen clearly, and the smoky fingers tightly pinched the young man’s hand—that was the real Gong Wei!

Liu Xuzhi’s expression changed drastically: “This, this is the ghost cultivator in Linjiangdu? When did it sneak in?!”

Xu Shuangce’s eyes flickered, but he didn’t answer.

But then the scenes just now flashed in Liu Xuzhi’s mind, and he realized: “Ah, that was when you jumped down first and then turned around to catch your disciple—”

At the breaking point of the sudden fall, Xu Shuangce briefly let go of his beloved apprentice’s hand, then turned around and firmly caught Gong Wei who jumped down. At that dark moment when they passed by, Gong Wei had been transferred without a sound, and they were leading such a little stone man all the way!

It is impossible to hide from the eyes of the grand master with ordinary blindfolding or substitute techniques, and it is even more impossible to have the scene of blood spurting just now when the person died. Liu Xuzhi looked at the cold-faced stone man on the ground, and then he really felt the chills: “Where did this evil spell come from?”

Xu Shuangce looked at the gray-robed ghost holding Gong Wei on the other side, and coldly uttered two words: “Ghost, Yuan.”

On the other side of the cliff more than ten feet away, the ghost finally made a voice from under the hood: “Xu Shuangce.”

Its voice is very soft, but every word seems to be directly heard in the minds of other people, and the sound quality is extremely weird, as if it came from a very far away place, with a rustling echo, and it is completely indistinguishable from men, women and children.

Liu Xuzhi’s ears, which had been exposed to the rhythm all the year round, moved instinctively, feeling an indescribable familiarity.

I saw the ghost holding Gong Wei’s hand, his strength was cold and fierce, but his tone seemed very gentle: “Bring me that thing from the bottom of the abyss, or your direct disciple will die here today.”

“…”

Waves of intense discomfort surged into Gong Wei’s heart, but it didn’t come from the ghost beside him, but from under his feet—

There seemed to be a huge object lurking in the abyss, vicious, resentful, and full of evil thoughts, and it was slowly waking up with their arrival, and it was more clearly affecting his primordial spirit.

Don’t come over, Gong Wei thought as he looked at Xu Shuangce who was on the edge of the cliff in the distance.

The thing under the abyss is extremely dangerous, don’t come here, don’t wake it up—

“Death for the soul body,” Xu Shuangce said, staring at the ghost suddenly.

Liu Xuzhi: “What?”

The ghost image seemed to freeze for a moment.

“Huangquan Ghost Cultivator’s secret method of substitute, when forced to be trapped in a certain place, the soul and soul can be torn apart, and the three souls of heaven, earth, and human are attached to the puppet, so that the puppet can completely become the deity , not even the heartbeat of flesh and blood; the other seven souls can escape at any time.”

Xu Shuangce narrowed his eyes: “But there is a price to pay for doing this, that is, after losing the three souls, the bodies attached to the other seven souls cannot maintain a stable form, and most of the time they can only turn into phantoms like ghosts. Only as a puppet stand-in When the transformed deity is killed, the three souls of the heaven, earth and people can return from thousands of miles away, and restore the phantom to the deity.”

“‘Death for the soul body’ has never appeared in any fairy family classics, and even in the Twelve Mansions of Guiyuan, it has been lost for a hundred years. I don’t want to be able to see it today.”

Xu Shuangce raised one foot to hang above the abyss, and held a thousand-mile sound transmission talisman with a flash of spiritual light between his lips with his two fingers. He stared at the ghost with sharp eyes, and his voice was soft and ruthless:

“He can’t run away, Ying Kai.”

At the same time, the closed door of Daishan Xianmeng, thousands of miles away, was suddenly opened with a clang.

“Alliance, leader?” “Leader!”

All the disciples lost their voices, but they saw Ying Kai’s face sinking like water, striding like a shooting star, his robe flying across the long corridor, blasting open the gate of the side hall with a palm, and drawing his sword in under the shocked eyes of twenty or so family lords, fixed The power of the Mountain and Sea Excalibur is coming—

The ghost shadow seemed to have sensed it for a moment, and flew back with a shrill roar, and five fingertips pierced the side of Gong Wei’s neck at the same time.

But at this time, Xu Shuangce was already like a sharp arrow in the sky, using his body to replace the magic spell, and an arc of blood flew out of his neck and sprinkled into the abyss.

In Xunshu Palace, the Dingshanhai sword appeared like a rainbow, and the sword pierced Juzong’s eyebrows in full view!

The **** sword tip pierced through the back of his head, Ju Zong didn’t even have time to resist, his body shook twice before falling to the ground with a bang.

Immediately after the incredible screams around, the “corpse” was quickly shrouded in black smoke, and after a few breaths the smoke cleared, revealing the real body with a golden armor body and a bronze face.

Someone lost his voice: “Soldier, soldier?!”

The puppet is dead, and the three souls have returned. In the deepest part of the Qianren Glacier, the ghost image was pierced by an invisible divine sword, the entire head snapped back as if broken, and the bones of the whole body erupted with terrifying sharp noises!

Xu Shuangce flew to the ground, grabbed Gong Wei back and pressed her into his arms, blood rolled down from his throat and soaked the skirt of his clothes.

Liu Xuzhi also rushed to the sky in a hurry, only to see that the ghost finally recovered from the severe pain of the sharp blade piercing his brain, his face was pale and sweaty, he was indeed the great sect of the world!

“…” Liu Xuzhi opened his mouth, and squeezed out two words like a dream: “Chengfeng?”

Changsun Chengfeng has always had that kind of very gentle and handsome face, but at this moment because the three souls were severely injured by Ding Shanhai, he has completely lost that kind of leisurely and easy demeanor, and he looks a little embarrassed.

But even so, he still had a smile on his face, just a little embarrassed: “Brother Ying has woken up a long time ago. The reason you two sang this double reed is to catch me out.”

As he spoke, he couldn’t help coughing up blood, turned to Gong Wei and asked, “—how did you find out that I was wrong, because you almost fell just now, but didn’t ‘Master’ stop immediately to check?”

Gong Wei only felt that Xu Shuangce’s hands were pressing him in his arms so hard that his shoulder blades hurt a little. After a while, Sect Master Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed a little, allowing Gong Wei to turn his head and reveal one eye, looking up and down at Changsun Chengfeng.

“I’m sorry, but after the death of the soul body, using the transformation technique consumes too much spiritual power. It’s the limit to last for two moments at most. I really don’t have time to play the role of a good teacher like Brother Xu who loves his disciples like his life.” Eldest grandson Chengfeng shook his head in mockery or sigh, then turned to Xu Shuangce: “What about you, brother Xu? Since when did you start to doubt me?”

Xu Shuangce said briefly: “On the golden boat.”

Changsun Chengfeng was quite surprised: “It’s so early? Then why didn’t you…”

“At that time, we couldn’t be sure until everyone was recalled to Daishan Punishment Palace. In order to invite the master behind the scenes to enter the urn, we had to cooperate with Ying Kai to come up with this trick.” Xu Shuangce paused, and said, “Do you have anything else to say?”

Changsun Chengfeng finally caught his breath, got up from the ground, and sat up straight.

“It’s my fault, Brother Xu.” He said sincerely, “After Du Kaixun was exiled, I finally had the opportunity to see many manuscripts left by him. Most of the studies and records on ghost cultivation and evil methods are appalling. I don’t know where I learned it from. I especially noticed that there is a page that mentions that under the cracks in the extremely northern glaciers, there is a machine soldier that is powerful enough to destroy the world. want to keep it for myself.”

As he said that, he laughed at himself: “As a Juzong, my fanatical pursuit of peerless soldiers is no less than that of Du Kaixun who tried to steal the right eye of Fahua Immortal Venerable. I am really ashamed of my despicable methods.”

This speech was very sincere, but Xu Shuangce remained indifferent: “Since I saw the manuscript seventeen years ago, why did I come here to find the soldiers?”

“Actually, I worked so hard to find it once back then, not long before the Ascension to Xiantai—calculating the time, Du Kaixun should have been killed by you.” Changsun Chengfeng shook his head: “But I’m not hiding it. , and returned without success.”

Liu Xuzhi finally recovered from the shock, and couldn’t help asking: “Why did you return without success?”

“Not everyone is qualified to wake up ancient soldiers from the abyss, Brother Liu.” The elder Sun Chengfeng glanced at Xu Shuangce: “If you don’t believe me, ask the Sect Master Xu next to you, is that the case?”

Liu Xuzhi followed his line of sight in a daze, but saw Xu Shuangce’s face was ice-cold, noncommittal.

“It wasn’t until seventeen years later that I finally found the opportunity to take advantage of my Juzong status to bring soldiers into the Dingxian Mausoleum and control the remains of Fahua Immortal Venerable. I wanted to ask Fahua Immortal Venerable to dig out this abyss for me Brother Xu, you personally came to Mount Dai, and not only chopped up all the corpses, but also found the soldiers inside the corpse of the Immortal Venerable.”

“When I was publicly interrogated by all the immortal friends on the golden boat, I was actually very panicked.” Changsun Chengfeng sighed, and said: “Fortunately, there is another evil brother who can carry the tank for me, which can be regarded as the last of his efforts. little value.”

Liu Xuzhi finally connected the whole matter together, and suddenly a burst of anger rushed into his heart: “You were the one who gave me the mirror technique in Penglai Palace?”

The eldest grandson Chengfeng said: “I’m sorry, brother Liu.”

“You were the one who slaughtered several of my disciples and almost killed Yunfei?!”

“…”

Changsun Chengfeng paused, then bowed his head and said, “I’m really sorry, Brother Liu. Actually, I didn’t want to do that either.”

Liu Xuzhi was furious, and with a clang, the green gooseberry came out of its sheath, but before he could step forward, he was suddenly blocked by a strong force in midair: “—Sect Master Xu?”

Xu Shuangce raised his left hand slightly, did not look at Liu Xuzhi who was surprised and angry, but only stared at Juzong on the ground:

“After Du Kaixun was exiled seventeen years ago, did you hide from everyone and come here alone?”

Obviously it was what he himself said just now, but Changsun Chengfeng’s eyes flickered slightly, and after a while, he uttered a word: “Yes.”

Xu Shuangce said, “I see.”

—So what?

Liu Xuzhi’s head was full of confusion, but Xu Shuangce’s thin lips curled up slightly, showing a sneer:

“Seventeen years ago, the eldest grandson Chengfeng who came alone to look for soldiers, was killed here and replaced by you, Du Kaixun?”

The author has something to say:

I’m so sorry! I edited it at home this weekend, and finally moved the plot of Xu Zongzhu’s shocking crush on Fahua Immortal Venerable (bushi) to Chapter 57! It can only be blamed that the world view and timeline in the text are too word-intensive to explain clearly, and the fifty-sixth chapter is a full 10,000 words!
