In the early morning of the next day, the mountains and rivers were beautiful, and a ray of dawn lit up in the distant mountains, making Penglai Island look like a dream.
There are flowing clouds and mist in the mountains in the early morning, the flowers are shadowed by the morning light, and the birds are chirping.
There are many spiritual beasts in the Penglai Mountains, but the spiritual beasts that can be encountered in the wilderness are all domesticated by the immortals in the mountains.
If it does not actively provoke hunting, it is not aggressive in any way.
The spirit beasts that can be seen are always docile, and most of them are used as spirit pets.
Any beast that becomes a spirit after being transformed into a weapon, in order to pursue strong power, will choose some ferocious, powerful and unruly monsters.
Fengzhi Island in Penglai Mountain is home to a group of powerful monsters extradited from the Golden Sea.
Yun Rong's mission when he came to Penglai this time was to find a monster as powerful as his own sword on Fengzhi Island, defeat it and completely surrender it, and refine it into the first sword of Xue Xue Sword. spirit.
After waking up from a dream one night, Yun Rong went to Fengzhi Island early after having breakfast with Bai Lian and did not return until the evening.
Penglai has always been on good terms with the three sects. Since Penglai accepted the gift from the sword master, he was particularly concerned about Yun Rongming's refining of the sword spirit.
Seeing Yun Rong return, the Penglai Deacon Elder Hongjiang Immortal in the mountain asked with concern: "How is it? Is there any of my Penglai spirit beasts that Miss Yun can like?"
She asked tactfully, saying she was asking if she had a favorite spirit beast, but actually she still wanted to ask her if she had successfully refined the sword spirit.
But what was disappointing was that Yun Rong shook his head and said: "Yun Rong is stupid and cannot refine the sound of the sword."
After hearing this, the Red Ginger Immortal was inevitably disappointed.
Fengzhi Island is never easily opened to the outside world. The spiritual power in the island comes from the Golden Sea. Every time it is opened, it will inevitably cause a great loss of spiritual power in the island.
If she had found the sword spirit one day later, Penglai would have suffered one more day of loss.
However, inscribing and refining the sword spirit is a big deal, and it is not something that can be accomplished in a day.
Often the truly powerful monsters are hidden in invisible places on the fairy island. On the first day when you enter the island, you may only see some peripheral third-rate monsters.
The Red Ginger Immortal didn’t expect her to succeed in just one day, and said with a smile: “It doesn’t matter, Miss Yun is new to Fengzhi Island, and it’s normal for her to be unfamiliar with many situations on the island. The fairy has already prepared meals, and Miss Yun has spent the night cultivating herself. , it won’t be too late to enter the island tomorrow.”
The meals in Penglai are mainly based on spiritual fruits, and meat is rarely seen. After Yun Rong returned to the dormitory after dinner, he saw Bai Lian reading at night under the window.
"Senior sister is back?" Bailian put down the scroll in his hand and asked, "How was Fengzhi Island doing today?"
Yun Rong took off the snow-washing sword on his back and hung it on the sword stand on the wall. He said, "Fengzhi Island is indeed well-deserved. Among the types of monsters, He Mojian is the most powerful one."
Bai Lian knew that Yun Rong's temperament would never say complimentary words easily.
The seemingly casual compliment was enough to show that she had experienced a real fierce battle on Fengzhi Island.
Clearly, she was extremely satisfied with her opponent.
Bai Lian thought for a moment and said, "Senior sister, has she entered the depths of the main island?"
There are very few monsters deep in the main island of Fengzhi Island, and there are four demon immortals sealed there, all of whom have the cultivation level to overcome the tribulation realm.
In another hundred years, I am afraid that the demonic bones can be completely washed away and he can be ranked as a Taoist immortal. It will be very difficult to conquer.
Since Fengzhi Island was opened to the outside world, only He Lian, the leader of Taixuan Sect, had successfully subdued one of the demon immortals, turned it into a weapon spirit, and brought it out of the island.
Sword Master Yu is so aloof and arrogant. Since he can prepare a generous gift for him, his target is naturally one of these four demons.
Yun Rong smiled and said: "The main island has its own world."
Balian was startled, then stood up quickly, took the Xue Xue Sword from the sword stand, and drew the sword out of his body.
I saw that the blade of the sword was clear and shining, and the sound of the sword was clear and clear. It was hidden in the scabbard but not in the edge. The fine frost patterns on the edge of the sword were like woven cocoons. The sword patterns did not fade for a long time. It was obviously the aftermath of a fierce battle. Not retreated.
It was rare for the Xue Xue Sword to be so sharp and powerful, and it was obviously a victory in battle.
Yun Rong pushed the scabbard lightly on the other end, and slid the sword edge into the scabbard inch by inch. He chuckled and said, "I'm lucky today. I met a demon fairy. He's really quite capable.
But junior brother, do you know? The demon fairy that frightened all the demons is actually a little ferret. Although I have a hard time feeling sympathy for small animals, I have to admit that if that little ferret fairy goes to the human world, it will definitely be It will be loved by many ladies from aristocratic families. "
Bailian put the Snow-Cleaning Sword back in place, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I'm afraid I'm going to have to eat a lot in the past few days to fill my stomach."
Yun Rong was stunned by the sudden change of topic. She laughed and said, "Junior brother, what do you mean by this?"
Bailian said: "Father originally thought that Senior Sister, you had a clear sword mind and didn't know how to inscribe the sword spirit. Little did you know, Senior Sister didn't want to have a sword spirit at all.
Senior Sister defeated the Demon Immortal, but she did not come back with the sword spirit of the Snow-Cleaning Sword. This meant that Fengzhi Island might have been open to Senior Sister in vain these past few days. "
As he said that, he raised his eyebrows, looked at Yun Rong with a half-smile, and said: "Father is an impatient person. I guess in three days, he will probably kiss Penglai. By then, my senior sister and I will I’m afraid I will be imprisoned by my father and starve.”
Yun Rong didn't expect that he could guess her thoughts so thoroughly. Whether she acted in daily life or went down the mountain to support the road and slay monsters, everything was based on her heart and not on the clan's orders.
Sword Master Yu also knew what kind of temperament she had and didn't bother to argue too much with her.
It's just that the sword spirit is related to the inheritance of the sword soul of the Thirteen Swords of Tianxi. Without the sword of the sword spirit, it is not a perfect sword spirit.
With this order, Sword Master Yu must not be able to tolerate even a grain of sand in his eyes.
If she didn't find her own sword spirit within the stipulated time, her confinement would probably be lenient.
Yun Rong's eyes deepened, and she looked at Bailian and said softly: "Junior brother, don't you blame me for causing trouble to you?"
Balian shook his head and said only four words: "There is nothing wrong with not giving or taking."
Yun Rong's heart moved. Looking at the young man under the candlelight, he was inexplicably moved.
She smiled, fluffed her sleeves and sat down, saying: "The sun rises and the moon stays forever, the vast sky is vast, the sea embraces all rivers, tolerance is great, these are the praises of mortals for the grand scene of the world. I am not a kind-hearted person, but I am only interested in swords." The way of the spirit, everyone in the world says, is the compassion of those who practice Taoism, giving demons a chance of redemption to change their ways, transforming themselves into spirits, abandoning darkness and turning to the bright and eternal path of immortality."
"But I think this is an arrogant statement. The demon itself has no fault, but the five-inch human heart is like an abyss. There are evil demons in the world, and killing them is to eliminate the evil spirits.
But since the evil demon made a mistake by killing his own life, there is no way to talk about redemption, protect it and transform it into a spiritual weapon. If there is a chance, it can even achieve enlightenment together with the owner of the weapon and become a spiritual weapon. What a merit and demerit."
"If they are not evil monsters, I have seen many little monsters in the forest. They have never done a single evil thing in their lives. Just because they are monsters, they have to do it under the guise of redemption for the sake of the rules and order they do. , killing his life, sacrificing his body, seizing his soul, using force to make him surrender, and refining him into a weapon spirit. Is the logic of this unfair to demons?"
As the master of the Tianxi Sword, she was complaining about the demon at the moment. If the sword master were present at this moment, she would probably be thinking of killing her with one palm.
Balian didn't feel much shock after hearing this. He just nodded and said, "Sister, you just need to do what you think is right."
Yun Rong said: "Everything in the world, how can it be right or wrong? I am not a saint who can judge the world, and I have no intention or ability to change the prejudices and order of this world. It's just that the heart of the sword is clear and I can see clearly the good and bad of demons at a glance.
The evil demon is useless to me, and becoming a sword spirit will not change the original intention of evil, so it is better to get rid of it with one sword. There is nothing wrong with good demons, and there is nothing wrong with wanting to live. If I kill them by force, it will go against my true intention. Since my heart is free, why bother asking for a cage? "
"The longevity of a sword has never been determined by whether I have the sword spirit. The sword in my hand means it will last forever. If I have the opportunity to achieve the sword spirit, I will be happy. If there is no chance, why would I force myself to endure hardships."
There are many immortals in the world who are called Xiaoyao Zhi, who claim to be indifferent to fame and wealth, and are often accompanied by green mountains.
But there are still a few people in the world who can truly be free and happy.
When it comes to the free and unrestrained mind, only Yun Rong lives up to it.
In this phase, there is no hatred or love, no choice, no thought of profit, success or failure, etc., peaceful and quiet, empty and indifferent, with nowhere to come and nowhere to go.
Possessing a sword heart may be more precious and important than refining a sword spirit.
My father... did it many times.
Three days later, Yun Rong really failed to find a matching sword spirit on Fengzhi Island.
Red Ginger Immortal was not that worried at first, but in these three days, she watched the Sijian girl from Tianxi come and go without a trace of spiritual energy consumption on her body. Every time she came back, she was still full of energy. Stained with the extremely refreshing scent of spiritual fruit wine.
Brewing spiritual fruit wine is a special skill of the three demon fairies deep in the main island. Even if she, as the deacon of Penglai, entered it, she would not be able to get one or two cups.
The demon fairy is extremely resistant to human beings, and she even despises humans who are weaker than herself. How could she have acquired the fragrance of wine without her own free will.
Smelling the aroma of wine on this girl, the Red Ginger Immortal was shocked and appalled. After four days, this soft-looking sword cultivator girl was actually as friendly as the three demon immortals on the same island.
On the last day, the Red Ginger Immortal watched Yun Rong slowly and lightly come out of Fengzhi Island, her whole body covered with the floating sea mist of fairy spirit, her jade posture was made of nature, like a beauty who entered the immortal path by the river.
The beauty was holding two pots of fruit spirit wine newly brewed by the demon fairy, and she was so shocked that her eyes almost fell out of her sockets.
When did these fairies become so kind-hearted? They actually allowed her to finish drinking the spiritual wine inside and even took her to pack them away.
She has been raising these ancestors for so many years, but she has never been treated like this.
It was exactly what Bai Lian said that within three days, it turned out that the Eastern Golden Dragon Sword Qi came from all over the world, and the sword master Yu came to Penglai.
When he came this time, he didn't even lower his sword, directly breaking Penglai's biggest rule since ancient times. He went up the mountain with his sword, which shows how angry the master of Tianxi Sword is.
Balian, who sensed the majestic and powerful sword energy, left the Qingshan Villa and hurriedly greeted him with a salute.
Before he could say the word father, a strong wind blew across his face, and Balian received a hard slap on the cheek. It was crisp and powerful. In front of many mountain immortals, he showed no mercy, and half of his cheek quickly swelled up to five points. Tao fingerprint.
This group of immortals were shocked to see this strict method of raising children.
Balian's head was tilted to one side by the slap, as if he didn't notice the strange looking eyes around him, as if he was accustomed to his father's attitude. His expression remained the same, and he still finished the salute seriously.
"I have met my father." Neither humble nor arrogant, his impeccable calm attitude seemed to be that he was not facing his father, but a stern senior who should be respected and respected.
Sword Master Yu's dark and cold eyes were stern, and the dark night unicorn sword robe on his body was indescribably domineering and noble. He rolled up his sleeves and said in a cold voice: "It seems that you have really forgotten all about the instructions you gave me to my father! Rong'er is That kind of casual character is nothing more than that. As the young master of Tianxi, you should be her husband and be strict and not follow her temper. This slap will make you reflect on yourself!"
Yun Rong's eyes were fixedly looking at half of his junior brother's swollen cheeks, and his usually casual expression rarely became calm.
The Tianxi Sword Master's thunderous wrath has always been terrifying. Balian has grown up following his lessons since he was a child. The awe engraved in his bones is deeper than that of ordinary people. His face is pale, but his eyes are particularly stubborn: "Son, I don't know If there is anything I need to reflect on, please ask my father for advice.”
Sword Master Yu's expression instantly turned cold, but more of his thoughts were still on Yun Rongming's sword spirit refining.
He looked at Bai Lian coldly and stopped talking to him. He just said: "Rong'er, come in with me. I have something to talk to you alone."
Just as Yun Rong was about to nod in agreement, Bailian straightened his body in an instant, took her arm and protected her behind him, looking at Sword Master Yu deeply and steadily: "Father!"
"If you say one more word, you'll get out of the Sin Sword Pond and receive fifty lashes!" Sword Master Yu glared at each other, his eyebrows tightened, and his sharp and majestic gaze emitted a heart-stopping tension.
"My father wants to be punished, but my son dare not shirk it. He will receive a hundred lashes when he goes back. But I also ask my father to tell me if I have something to do in person, and don't put pressure on my senior sister behind my back."
Seeing the anger boiling in Sword Master Yu's eyes, Yun Rong hurriedly broke away from Bai Lian's hand, walked out, lowered his head and said: "Sect Master, please move."
After saying that, he turned back and whispered to Bailian: "Junior brother, this is Penglai, don't have any dispute with the sect leader."
Balian frowned tightly, seeing her troubled expression, he couldn't say anything more after all.
The moment they entered the other courtyard, Sword Master Yu waved his sleeves to apply a soundproof barrier, and spoke with a cold face: "The reason why I want to talk to you alone is because I care about your face. That little bastard doesn't You know what is good or bad, could it be that I wanted to expose my Tianxi’s family affairs to those outsiders?!”
Yun Rong lowered his head and said nothing.
Sword Master Yu glanced coldly at the Xixue Sword behind her, and hummed: "Rong'er, you have extraordinary talents, and you are born with a clear sword heart. It is very different from my acquired cultivation. I thought you could be a master of swordsmanship." Chen, when I was taught the sword, if you had the chance to awaken the sword spirit, the spot for the first sword in Tianxi would be yours."
Yun Rong said: "The sect master is very complimentary, and the senior brother is also very good."
The sword master laughed angrily: "You thought I was praising you! If I had known you were so stubborn, I shouldn't have chosen you to marry Zangjian in the first place. Although Yue's appearance is not as outstanding as yours, she is better. Being sensible and obedient, I think you are more suitable to be the future sword master’s wife of Tianxi than you.”
