The whole place was quiet, no one spoke, everyone was staring at the flying sword, Xu You hesitated and quietly disappeared into the shadows.
Gu Chen recognized the sword as the Lingxiao Sword.
The name of the sword may not be important, but what is important is that the sword is the master's sword. Seeing this sword is like seeing the master. In the duel between him and Li Yuanmu, Master Yun Gui intervened.
Li Yuanmu repeatedly mobilized the energy in his body, but he couldn't mobilize it. Knowing that the battle with Gu Chen would be impossible, he felt unwilling to do so, but quickly calmed down and saluted respectfully towards the Lingxiao Sword. Said: "Meet the leader."
"Meet the leader!"
The other Kunlun disciples reacted and saluted one after another. Gu Chen hesitated for a moment and also asked his disciples to bow to him. At this time, two sword energy came out from the Lingxiao sword. One passed by Gu Chen, and the other shot straight into the center of the valley. It was also this sword. Flying direction.
Everyone understood, and many people showed expressions that it was true, and they saw Gu Chen walking towards the center of the valley.
"Senior brother."
Gu Chen stopped and heard Li Yuanmu's voice behind him, saying: "I'm waiting for you."
Gu Chen didn't respond and continued to walk over.
Li Yuanmu took a deep breath and felt that the pressure of the Lingxiao Sword was dissipated and that Yuanli could be activated again. He sat on the spot, closed his eyes and meditated. As his mood calmed down, the ripples on the Shuiling Sword gradually disappeared, and the sword's body became more powerful. To smooth.
Everyone else is waiting here, no one leaves, waiting for that moment to come.
Cai Xing looked at Wu Tiao beside him and asked, "Who do you think will win?"
Wu Tiao thought about it seriously and found that this question was quite difficult to answer. One was a former Taoist disciple and the other was the current Taoist disciple. Although Gu Chen was rated as the most outstanding Daoist disciple, after the incident ten years ago, , now although his meridians have been reshaped and he can return to the path of cultivating immortality, Li Yuanmu is at a higher level than Gu Chen at this time.
Cai Xing chuckled and said, "Senior Brother Li will definitely win."
Wu Tiao glanced at Cai Xing and saw that Cai Xing was staring at him provocatively. He wanted to look away, but he felt a little lost for some reason. He controlled his mind according to Cheng Chen's instructions and activated his skills. Only then did he feel calm again. Feeling much calmer, he simply sat down on the spot like Li Yuanmu and began to practice. Seeing this, Cai Xing just sneered.
…
…
The valley was quiet and quiet. As Gu Chen walked, it became quieter and quieter. Soon there was no one around. He could only see a lake not far ahead. It was a small lake. Although the lake was not big, it was full of fairyland.
This is obviously just an ordinary lake, but because there is a person standing in the center of the lake, it gives Gu Chen a feeling full of fairyland. It is the person in the center of the lake who has reached the state of cultivation, and unknowingly affects the world around him. Gu Chen has also seen such a state from two people. One is his master Dongyang Master, and the other is his adoptive father Qingyangzi.
"Meet the leader." Gu Chen held the disciple's ceremony and paid homage respectfully. Although he only saw his back, the man in the center of the lake was indeed the master of Kunlun, Yun Gui Zhenren.
"After ten years of separation, things have changed and people have changed. When I asked Dongyang to send you down the mountain, no one thought that you would have the chance to go back to this road again."
"Disciple had some adventures." Gu Chen had a lot to say, including the Chunjun sword spirit that appeared in his body, and the reshaped meridians that turned out to be the appearance of the Chunjun sword. These were still unsatisfactory to him. There are many mysteries hidden there, and more importantly, where did the Chunjun Fairy Sword disappear and go? Ten years ago, no one knew. Ten years later, will the truth be revealed? "Pure Jun Immortal Sword ten years ago..."
"The sword of Shui Ling was made by me, and it means the best is like water." Master Yun Gui interrupted Gu Chen's words, "Water is good and benefits all things without fighting. It is what everyone hates, so it is close to the Tao."
When Gu Chen reached his lips, he silently took back his words and stood there listening quietly.
"Water is the best and softest. Its nature is continuous and dense. It is silent when it is small and turbulent when it is huge. It has no dispute with others and can accommodate all things. This is the mind that a leader of a sect should have. The body of the sword is like water and like a mirror, which can reflect the state of mind. A disturbed mind will cause waves, but a calm mind will be as smooth as a mirror. If Yuan Mu grows up enough to match that sword, he can become the head of Kunlun. Although he is still young, it can be said that he is inexperienced, but a new generation replaces an old one. , Kunlun cannot always follow the will of the older generation, and besides, the older generation also has its own path to follow."
Gu Chen's heart moved slightly, the way of the older generation...
"I refined the sword Shui Ling a long time ago and have been waiting for it. In fact, originally, I wanted to hand it into your hands." Master Yun Gui slowly turned around and faced Gu Chen, For the past ten years, he had always shown his back to others, and it was not until he met Gu Chen that he turned around.
Gu Chen was shocked. That face was still the familiar face in his memory, majestic and elegant, but it looked much older. The white hair on the temples was particularly obvious, which Gu Chen couldn't believe.
Master Yun Gui didn't care, and looked at Gu Chen carefully. This young man had grown up a lot. He seemed to be less naive and impulsive than he was ten years ago, and more calm and calculating.
He thought this was good because the Gu Chen from ten years ago was so clean.
"You've grown up." Master Yun Gui smiled and nodded.
Gu Chen said with shock: "Master, you..."
"I'm old, aren't I?" Master Yun Gui smiled softly, looking a little kind at this moment, "It's been ten years, time has changed, you are no longer the same Gu Chen, I am also old, you are familiar with Kunlun is no longer what it was before, everything has passed, Shui Ling has been handed over to Yuan Mu, and he has succeeded you as the new generation of Daozi. Everything is different from ten years ago."
Gu Chen's expression changed slightly and he stopped talking.
"Kunlun is no longer what it used to be. The Qingyang Sect is planning to move to Yuzhou this time, with the intention of seizing the title of the No. 1 Immortal Sect. However, Yuzhou is rich in resources and is a piece of fat. Other sects will not sit back and watch. If they cannot stop it, they will Everyone wants to get a share of the pie, and the general trend is that the current Kunlun Mountains cannot stop the surging rivers and seas." Master Yun Gui looked at Gu Chen with deep meaning, "I know that you have a good relationship with Qingyang Sect."
Gu Chen's heart was slightly shaken.
"Kunlun will not be involved in this matter, nor will he stop it. Kunlun has been aloof from the world for too long, and originally knew very little about worldly affairs. However, Xiangsang appeared and the Ghost Sect went south, disrupting the world. Now Kunlun can be said to be on par with other sects. If you cross the river by feeling the stones at the same starting point, your feet will get wet and you won’t know who will slip down. It’s hard to tell which one is better and which one is worse. However, in these troubled times, if everyone focuses on the resources for spiritual practice, they must distinguish If you have some strength to occupy and seize, you still have to defend it. If you are unable to face the catastrophe, what is the use of occupying more resources? Things change every day. The real big opportunity is not in those cultivation resources, but in this day and this day. It’s better to take a longer view.”
Master Yun Gui suddenly smiled, shook his head and said: "It's useless for me to tell you this. You can't influence the decision of Qingyang Sect. Besides, everyone has their own opinions. This is just my personal opinion. Maybe I am It’s not known what’s wrong, it’s just that everyone in the world is suspicious of Kunlun, and since you were born here after all, you should know Kunlun’s attitude.”
Gu Chen nodded and said nothing.
Master Yun Gui stared at him for a long time before saying, "Is there anything else you want to say?"
Gu Chen shook his head with some difficulty and said, "No more."
Master Yun Gui nodded and said: "Yuan Mu is still waiting for you outside. Although he is the current Taoist disciple, you don't have to hold back. He has experienced few setbacks and his state of mind is too low. Even if your current level of cultivation is lower than him, You can also easily find his flaws, so your chances of winning are still very high."
"yes."
Master Yun Gui waved his hand and said, "Then go ahead."
"Disciple..." Gu Chen bit his lip, lowered his head, and after a moment of silence said, "Junior, please leave."
Gu Chen turned around and left, and a faint sigh from Master Yun Gui seemed to come from behind him.
His mind was in turmoil.
Master Yun Gui's cultivation is unfathomable. He is one of the few people in the world who stands at the pinnacle, in the realm of immortality. It is incredible that he has aged so much in just ten years.
But thinking of the profound meaning behind Yun Gui's words, Gu Chen smiled bitterly and tried to put all these worries and the mystery of the lost Chunjun sword behind his mind. He stopped thinking about it, but his thoughts were still coming, and he just murmured with sadness. He muttered: "None of this has anything to do with me anymore."
