Inside the Sword Cave, Lin Xian finished reading the jade slip in the book and sighed: "Lost at the wrist, what a pity, what a pity."
Wei Sheng raised his head and took a glance, but didn't say anything. These days in the Sword Cave couldn't be considered good times. It wasn't that staying in the Sword Cave was boring every day; he had been tempering his sword through all sorts of hardships, so this current state wasn't anything out of the ordinary.
What made him feel unwelcome was the incompatibility with this group of people. In fact, Lin Qian attached great importance to him and spoke very politely, without losing courtesy. The repairers under Lin Qian also didn't bother him much. But that kind of distance and estrangement from the bone marrow always flowed out unintentionally.
Wei Sheng is not stupid, how can he not feel it? He doesn't find it strange either, as a former sword slave, what kind of worldly coldness and warmth hasn't he seen? It's just that he doesn't like it in his heart, what makes him dislike even more is Lin Qian's spearhead, which always intentionally or unintentionally targets Zuo Mo Shidi.
He was never a talkative person in Japan, and after arriving at Jian Dong, he became even more silent.
Lin Qian handed the jade tablet to Wei Sheng.
Wei Sheng was somewhat perplexed and took the jade tablet, looking at it. After reading the jade tablet, Wei Sheng's face remained calm, but his heart was stirred up with shock and astonishment.
Assuming the alias of Jin Wucheng Master, he successively killed several Golden Elixirs and upon a loud cry at the top of a high place, tens of thousands of cultivators gathered...
Is this Shidi? Wei Sheng still couldn't believe it. In the jade token, Shidi's appearance had changed greatly, but the expression and demeanor that showed through, Wei Sheng recognized at a glance. Gong Sun Chi and Chun Yu Cheng, he also knew them. After Shidi was transferred to Huang Mu Jiao, Wei Sheng even specifically checked on the fellow disciples who followed Shidi together, having some impression of these two people.
Younger brother is indeed younger brother!
Wei Sheng's heart was filled with unspeakable joy, knowing that his younger brother not only survived but was also doing well. He was overjoyed. With a hint of excitement in his tiger-like eyes, he couldn't help but reveal a few hints of determination and competitiveness - his younger brother was now so formidable, how could he, as the older brother, fall behind!
Lin Qian stared at Wei Sheng and suddenly spoke up: "I don't know what secret technique this pair of golden wings behind Zuo Mo's back is, but did it come from your esteemed school?"
Wei Sheng suddenly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Left Martial Brother Fu Yuan has always had a deep affinity, what kind of strange encounter is not surprising."
Lin Qianlan looked at Wei Sheng with a hint of sympathy and said calmly, "Is that so? I've studied the classics thoroughly, and I think the golden wings on Zuo Mo's back are quite consistent with the legendary demonic transformation."
Wei Sheng was unmoved: "Oh, is that so? But as far as I know, Zen meditation also has similar abilities. Master Xin once taught his disciple the 'Diamond Sutra', and with his exceptional talent, he was only one step away from achieving supernatural powers."
Lin Qian withdrew his gaze and calmly said, "Brother Wei, why must you compete with me? I have already arranged for someone to guard the Fragrance Flower Realm. The law is fair and just, and it's also possible to investigate this matter further below. When the time comes, the truth will naturally be revealed."
Wei Shuang's fists clenched suddenly, his eyes filled with anger, and the cultivators around Lin Qian made a sudden noise, each one staring at Wei Shuang with a fierce and solemn killing intent.
"Wei brother, don't be nervous. If Zuo Mo succeeds in cultivating the divine ability, I'll be overjoyed. Even if Zuo Mo is possessed by a demon, I will still protect his life." Lin Xian raised his head, his eyes deep and mysterious: "The war between us cultivators and demons has reached an irreversible point, like water and fire. Wei brother, your talent surpasses others, you must hold on to yourself, don't disappoint the expectations of your sect leader."
Having said that, he turned around and ordered: "Everyone get ready, we're heading back tomorrow."
Wei Sheng was shocked by the words, and his mind flashed back to the fragmented conversations he had overheard from that group of cultivators. The surrounding cultivators cast him a cold glance before dispersing on their own.
In the depths of Jian Dong, Wei Sheng walked alone with a desolate expression. His eyes scanned the surroundings, filled with nostalgia. He knew that Lin Qian and the others were going to thoroughly abandon Tian Yue Realm. When those cultivators chatted idly, he vaguely heard that they planned to completely seal off the boundary river of Ming Tao in Tian Yue Realm. It was said that almost all the Golden Dan masters of Ming Tao had been mobilized to set up an array.
They did not intend to retake Tianyue Realm.
The gloomy and eerie Sword Caverns now seemed to have become lovely, thinking that he would never be able to return to the Tianyue Realm again, Wei Sheng's heart felt a pang of melancholy. He silently walked towards the depths of the Sword Caverns, the eighteen layers of Sword Caverns, where he had killed his way down layer by layer in the past, the dangers of which now seemed like they were just yesterday. The several fellow disciples from Wu Kong Mountain still lingered before his eyes.
Thinking of the complex and chaotic situation within the sect, he couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration. In this past year, he hadn't made any progress, and he knew why. He had made up his mind that after returning this time, once the matter with Left Guardian was settled, he would leave to travel the world. All he wanted to do was focus on cultivating his sword skills, and not get entangled in the sect's affairs, which were beyond his control anyway.
For some reason, he was not too worried about his junior brother's affairs. Thinking of Zuo Mo, he couldn't help but smile, his junior brother's cunning could only be truly understood by those who had suffered before. Those who had tried to take advantage of his junior brother in the past had not gained anything from him.
Lin Qian's background was extraordinary, and the energy in his hands was superb. Wei Sheng was very clear about this, but if Lin Qian thought that he could easily defeat his junior brother with just this, then he was too naive. Thinking of this, a few hints of a smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of Wei Sheng's mouth.
As for Lin Qian's demonization, Wei Sheng was somewhat disdainful. Demons and cultivators are sworn enemies, he knew that much. He didn't have a good impression of demons, nor did he have too much ill will towards them. The conflict between demons and cultivators, in the end, was a struggle for resources. A cultivator's cultivation required large amounts of crystal stones and various magical artifacts - where did these things come from?
The production of various materials by the cultivators has formed a complete system, but this is far from meeting the needs of those large sects. The pioneering road of the new border has never stopped. Every discovery of the new border is accompanied by enough bloodshed.
The war of the demon cultivators has nothing to do with him.
Those big sects are nothing good. He misses the former Wu Kong Jian Men.
As he walked and walked, he unknowingly reached the lowest level. The dark and gloomy atmosphere along the way had not yet recovered its vitality, knowing Wei Sheng's ferocity, they did not dare to get close by a single inch.
The bottom was empty, and in those years, there was a very powerful evil spirit here. He fought to the point of severe injury before killing it off. His gaze fell on the ground, his feet were covered with a thick layer of bronze bricks, and against the stone wall, there was a bronze long table, on which a jade box was placed. Wei Sheng's complete version of "Wu Kong Sword Manual" was obtained from this jade box.
Everything in front of him was no different from when he left.
After tomorrow, everything here will be sealed forever.
Wei Sheng felt an indescribable sense of emotion, his hand touching the bronze long case, and a chill ran through it. He suddenly let out a soft hum, and in this chill, there was actually another faint breath! This breath was extremely weak, if he wasn't much stronger than when he was in the Sword Cave last time, he wouldn't have noticed this breath.
Something is wrong!
He suddenly felt a slight tremble in his spirit, closed his eyes and calmed his mind, and this extremely weak breath gradually became clear.
He opened his eyes, his right hand clenched into a fist, and with a burst of sword intent, he lightly drew several strokes on the bronze long case. The surface of the long case flashed with light, revealing a jade box.
Wei Sheng's face was filled with surprise, and he hastily opened the jade box. Inside, he saw a broken jade pendant and a jade slip. Wei Sheng carefully picked up the jade slip and began to read it. The more he read, the more shocked he became.
Inside the jade pendant was a strand of spiritual thought left by the sect's ancestor before his death, explaining the origin of this jade pendant. This jade pendant was an unintentionally obtained treasure by the ancestor when he was young, with a unique aura remaining on it. The sect's "Empty Void Sword Manual" was actually created by the ancestor from this aura, and upon seeing this, Wei Sheng's heart was racing wildly.
A single breath of air was enough to inspire his ancestor to create the Six Swords Manual, and the power of this breath was beyond his imagination.
The ancestors and masters were all contemplating this jade pendant, and before their death, they finally gained some insight. Unfortunately, they had no strength to personally uncover the mystery. So they carved what they had gained on the bronze bricks below, but thinking of the aura on the jade pendant, although weak, was vast and pure, and deep and immeasurable. Afraid of causing trouble, the ancestors still decided to hide it, if the disciples of this sect have fate, they will naturally get it, this is fate.
He put down the jade tablet, and Wei Sheng's eyes fell on the broken jade pendant, his heart racing. The aura that could make the ancestors contemplate for a lifetime was absolutely extraordinary.
He carefully picked up the jade pendant, which was unassuming and had a broken corner, with an ancient and simple design. Holding it in his hand, he felt that mysterious aura even more deeply. Suppressing the strong curiosity in his heart, he didn't dare to easily use his spiritual sense to touch this weak aura. The aura that even their ancestors needed to contemplate for a lifetime was absolutely not something he could touch with his current cultivation.
He carefully hung the jade pendant around his neck, and his gaze immediately fell on the bronze bricks. He secretly operated the "Wu Kong Sword Intent" mind method, and pressed a hand on one of the bronze bricks. This bronze brick instantly became light as nothing, and was easily lifted up.
Something!
The ground revealed a strange pattern, and Wei Sheng's spirit was shaken again. He lifted up the bronze bricks one by one.
In an instant, the bronze bricks on the ground were swept away, revealing the ground below. The ground was smooth as a mirror, and a huge symbol array appeared under Wei Sheng's feet.
This is...
Wei Sheng's eyes sparkled as he carefully examined the array of symbols at his feet. However, the complex patterns made him dizzy and he thought to himself that if Left Shidi were here, with his attainments in symbol arrays, he would definitely be able to figure out what this array was used for.
He didn't notice that the jade pendant around his neck was emitting a faint, almost imperceptible glow.
When the light enveloped the entire jade pendant, Wei Sheng suddenly realized that the array of symbols under his feet suddenly lit up with a piercing bloody glow, which made it impossible for him to open his eyes.
Dazzling blood-colored light, forming a beam of light, shooting straight up.
The rock wall on top directly turned into flying ash in front of the light column.
At the top of Jian Dong, Lin Qian's face suddenly changed greatly, his body shape rushed outwards, a dazzling blood-colored light column shot straight up from the ground, narrowly and perilously brushing against his body. Several cultivators who were unable to react in time let out no more than a miserable cry before directly turning into flying ash.
The remaining light column, like withering and breaking through the sword hole's ban, broke through the thick rock layer, and inserted directly into the clouds.
Lin Qian looked extremely ugly at this moment, and he couldn't care about anything else. He shouted loudly: "Leave! Leave immediately!"
A blood-colored pillar of light burst forth, like a giant blood-colored sword, piercing the sky!
The demon army stationed on Wukong Mountain looked at this incredibly thick beam of light in horror.
Mu Xi reacted the fastest, and after a moment of shock, his expression turned serious: "Go and investigate quickly, what's going on!"
The bottom of the sword cave is empty and desolate.
