The wind was so strong that not a single pedestrian appeared on the street. The air current galloping through the streets and alleys does whatever it wants, roaring, roaring, ferociously lifting up everything that can be destroyed wherever it goes, and slapping the door of every house with great power. In addition to the howling of the wind, there were creaking and clanging sounds everywhere, as if doors and windows were about to be torn down.
At this time of the year, let alone beggars, there was not even a wild cat to be seen. For some reason, there were two people standing in the wind. They were all dressed in such pitch-black clothes that they stood motionless like weights in the strong afternoon wind. The hems of the clothes were dancing wildly, and the wind was trying to tear them apart. A small leaf scraped across the face of the man in front, and a red crack immediately appeared. But before the blood stains were wiped away by the wind, a thin layer of white frost overflowed from the wound.
Kanna-kun behind him raised his sword and pointed it at Wei Donglin's back.
"Do you know your guilt?"
Even amid such a noisy wind, these words were clearly conveyed to her ears.
"What's the crime?"
"All the masters of Jianghu sects have lost their lives because of you. If under such circumstances, you can still say such irrelevant things, I really don't know whether to call you shameless or arrogant."
Wei Donglin turned around slowly, leaving her back to the wind as she was facing the wind. His long, thick gray hair swayed wildly, as if in response to Kanna-kun's questioning. But the only half of her face showed no expression. She only said coldly:
"I just want to compete with the masters, and I will accept anyone who comes to ask for advice. There are probably many people who come here for the Demon Sealing Blade, and I don't care. Whether they end up dead or alive, the same It has nothing to do with me. It’s just that they were seriously injured. I never really wanted their lives. Could it be that just because I am too lazy to draw up those life and death situations, you, the Six Paths of Impermanence, want to punish me? "
"They all died due to specific techniques. The most low-key one was not fatally injured, but the coroner was unable to detect the final cause of his death. The most high-profile one was covered in ice pimples and fell apart with just a slight push. , shattered into pieces. The former was actually caused by you punching through many critical points on your body. Because the ice needles used were extremely thin, there would be no evidence after melting. The latter was injured by your cold energy, and since then The bone marrow spreads from the inside out and the whole body freezes."
"Ah, it's like this." Wei Donglin said lightly, "Even I don't know what's going on. How did you notice it?"
"The Zuojinmen are all people who are proficient in assassination. Although they lack the ability like you, it is not impossible to find out these things. The degree of decay of the skin and flesh where the ice needle penetrated varies. And the bones that have been eroded from the inside , there is also a time lag in the spread. In addition, there are a lot of strange methods to make challengers die. Everyone says that you are a female devil who kills without blinking an eye."
"Whether you believe it or not, I have no intention of killing them. There are many survivors, right? I never kill them. Those who died tragically had malicious intentions, or they were still playing tricks after the competition, or under the pretense of sparring. There are many reasons why they are plotting evil against the Demon-Sealing Blade. They have no shortage of excuses. After all, rather than putting them to death, I look forward to someone who has the ability to put me in a narrow escape situation." After saying that, Wei Donglin raised the With the remaining eyes, "Maybe it's you?"
"I believe it. What you said has fulfilled my speculation." Kanna-kun said calmly, "You keep looking for martial arts masters to compete with you, not for money or reputation, let alone their lives. You have to put yourself in danger. Any method of suicide is not safe enough and cannot control your life just right. Only the battle with others can be controlled by you. If you want to pull out the Demon-Sealing Blade, you need to Your spirit and body are misplaced and deviated, as if you are half-dead but not really half-dead. Only when a part of you is separated from the human world and you can still rely on instinct or will to drive your body can you have the conditions to draw out the Demon-Sealing Blade - or so you think. As for the people you killed, you yourself don’t know why you used such techniques. Because these moves do not belong to the memory of you now... Those are your previous life, the profession of the former Shigetsuki-kun."
"...An assassin who became famous all over the world for his assassinations."
"He and I are old acquaintances, a long, long time ago. He said it himself, he seemed to be a man who went his own way, but in fact the assassinations during his lifetime
All actions strictly follow the employer's requirements. Some people die so hard that no flaws can be found, and it becomes an unsolved case that cannot be solved; or some people blatantly tell the world to act as a demonstration. Your behavior is completely consistent with His code. Ever since you came into contact with the demon-conquering pestle he used, your soul has been gradually assimilated. "
"Oh," she said only, "I don't care."
"Because you, like him, only care about ultimate martial arts and divine weapons that match that martial arts. You should know that if you successfully draw the Demon-Sealing Blade, you will serve that Lord and automatically take over the responsibility of the Six Paths of Impermanence. Then It was a shackles that he never dreamed of getting rid of. Even so, will you never look back?"
"I told you, I don't care."
"That's really ironic."
"Perhaps you can put me in just the right amount of distress?"
Pure fighting mania, pure madness. When she said this, there was a trace of sad vitality in her cold eyes. Her hand even moved to the Demon-Sealing Blade, anticipating Kanna-kun's next move. But after hearing this, Kanna-kun put the knife back and said in a rather disappointing tone:
"It won't be me. It's a pity that you are becoming more and more like him. If you continue these senseless killings, there is no turning back for you. If you insist on pulling it out, I don't have no suggestions for you. ——If this prevents you from causing more trouble."
Although the answer he received was rejection, Wei Donglin was still surprised by his words. She felt that Kanna-kun was not lying, which was completely different from the previous guys who had ulterior motives. She looked at him with rare interest, waiting for his statement.
"I almost got Shigetsuki-kun's seat... a long, long time ago."
Under the deep sea of the Nine Heavens Kingdom, above the secrets of the Crystal Palace, Kanna-kun, who is not yet Kanna-kun, slowly sinks with such a weapon. Also sinking with it was an orb common to the Sharman and Dragon tribes. It was indestructible, but was broken into thousands of pieces by the sharp blade of the Demon Sealing Blade. At that moment, the weapon was indeed activated for a moment.
Then it closed and he couldn't pull it out anymore.
"After that, I didn't plan to touch it again. I had a vague hunch at that time, thinking that I might have such qualifications. But I still have unfinished things, things that must be done, and I can't open it. This is my simplest thought. Today, I have seen, known, and thought about more and more things, and gradually I began to understand that maybe that moment of opportunity was not due to me."
"...Perhaps you were already on the verge of death at that time."
"I'm sure I'm alive and well."
Wei Donglin vaguely knew the answer.
The node of spiritual veins.
It was just the right time. It required the right time, right place, and the right people. Everything was indispensable. Gu Jia Qianlong went crazy while practicing extreme martial arts, mistakenly entered the Shura Way and obtained this weapon; Lu Yinxuejian took the Resurrection Pill and was fatally wounded, and relied on her deep-seated will to draw the sword out of its sheath. . The conditions of the two are indeed similar, and logically speaking, they seem to be correct solutions. But if what Kanna-kun said is true, that means that this is not the only solution.
To meet the conditions for leaving the human world, it would be difficult to manipulate flesh and blood to draw the sword. But if the spiritual flow is disordered and the spiritual field is complex, the spiritual vein nodes may confuse right and wrong. Wei Donglin thought to himself, is this really possible? Even if she walked into the six spiritual veins, she could not successfully open the Demon-Sealing Blade. How could she be so capable with just one node? But at that moment Kanna-kun was talking about, there was even the power of dragons, which was something beyond what mortals could understand. What's more, in the world under the deep sea, there must be more unknown spiritual current structures.
Finding such a place is no easy task. Then I thought about it, wouldn't it be easy to find a warrior who could defeat me? Now there is one more choice and one more way to go. But Wei Donglin is not stupid. She knows that Shen Wujun must have ulterior motives for revealing such information. So, she asked bluntly.
"You are a smart man." Kanna-kun replied, "I will tell you next how to artificially interfere with the spiritual veins. During my lifetime, my father and Fu Songfengdai, who forged the Six Paths Divine Weapon, were close friends. Then At that time, he had become the Six Paths Impermanence, running around the world. After I became Kanna-kun, I learned the secret of the Six Paths Divine Weapon from him. Although all this
It was not his original intention, but after he understood the principles of the Six Paths and forged the six weapons, he knew that they had the power to tear apart the six barriers. "
"You're thinking……"
"I want you to cause some trouble for Kuchugetsu-kun." Kanna-kun said so calmly, "Although the blood-cutting and throat-sealing has faded and lost its effectiveness, he is still regrouping the Six Paths Divine Weapons. I guess he still has Means. Now, he has collected all the weapons, but none of us know his real plan. I can only tell you that if you get them, you will have the opportunity to get the power to change the six spiritual veins. In this way, you will succeed The possibility of drawing the Demon-Sealing Blade will increase by one point. I won't say anything to death because all of this is just inference. If there is a flaw in any link in the process, the result will be in vain or even cause more serious consequences."
"Although I look down on those weapons made by humans, I am very interested in the effectiveness you mentioned. But when the time comes, if I really come into contact with him, you are not afraid that I will collude with him or take it for myself. Will I cause you some trouble later?"
"If this is the case, you can implement your other idea. Then I will not be the only one who draws a sword against you."
"Very good. It is indeed a cooperation with no harm at all. You convinced me. But if someone seeking revenge comes to me during this period, I will not guarantee the consequences."
"Even the six realms of impermanence cannot save everyone."
Recalling Shen Wujun's words, Wei Donglin didn't notice that he had left here at all, but she didn't care - she had gotten the information she wanted. Rather, it was an unexpected surprise. The strong wind was still unruly and noisy, but she stood alone in the middle of the street, her heart as silent as a snowfield.
