"The so-called sword list... is this thing."
The palace maid walked to the green jade screen with a smile, put her hand on it, and continued: "There is a prehistoric sword array hidden in this screen."
"Ancient Sword Formation." Gu Qingshan repeated, his expression unchanged.
The palace maid continued: "What puzzles the Immortal Lord is that although this sword formation was conquered by her, the real sword spirit has never been found."
"Your mission is to enter the sword formation and find the sword spirit."
Gu Qingshan looked at the green jade screen.
-The whole screen is a sham.
Xuanyuan Tianzun relied on this item to exchange for a lot of fine Baihua Jade Brewing from Baihua Fairy.
After being discovered, he quickly apologized and promised some really good things to appease Xie Daoling's anger.
——These are all innocuous little things.
It's business to quickly expose the scam in the screen, and then go to the front line with Xie Daoling to rescue Gongsun Zhi and Ning Yuechan.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingshan cupped his fists and said, "Please let me have a try."
"good."
The palace maid nodded slightly, made a spell on her hand, and pointed at the green jade screen.
The green jade screen suddenly shook.
Visions appeared one after another, exuding an ancient and vicissitudes of atmosphere.
The palace maid moved her hand again, and a colorful spiritual light suddenly appeared on the screen, covering Gu Qingshan.
A majestic voice sounded.
"Junior, you can only enter after burning incense."
Gu Qingshan lit the incense, bowed, and stepped into the screen.
As soon as he disappeared, the palace maid immediately changed her previous relaxed and carefree attitude and stared at the green jade screen with a solemn expression.
"It's been ten years and I still can't figure out the trick. I hope this young man can give me some inspiration." The palace maid murmured softly.
But Gu Qingshan's eyes flashed, and he found himself rolling down from mid-air into a hall.
He stood up and looked around.
That's right.
It’s still the ancient building in my memory.
On both sides of the main hall, there are two rows of figure sculptures, which are ancient monks with different expressions and postures.
The ten ancient monks are all different. The only thing they have in common is that they all have a long sword.
"Ancient sword cultivator." Gu Qingshan murmured.
- These are a bunch of liars.
He looked forward and saw a god enshrined directly in front of the hall.
This is a god in golden armor, holding a mountain peak in his left hand and a strange long sword in his right hand, with a solemn expression.
Behind the man of God is a wall five people high, with murals carved with thick ink and heavy colors, all showing scenes of ancient monks fighting monsters.
Gu Qingshan watched all this with a dazed expression.
like……
Something doesn't match what I remember...
Where exactly?
He had a bad feeling in his heart and walked to the first statue.
Gu Qingshan bowed and asked respectfully: "May I ask how your senior sacrificed his life?"
The statue turned slightly and looked towards him.
This is a middle-aged monk with a Chinese character face, wearing a white frost-colored robe, and the long sword in his hand is also very cold.
He looked at Gu Qingshan and said calmly: "Back then...after that...something suddenly changed."
After saying that, he returned to his original posture and stopped moving at all.
Gu Qingshan cupped his hands again and said: "What has changed back then?"
The statue turned slightly again and looked towards him.
I saw the middle-aged man say: "Back then...after that...some things suddenly changed."
After speaking, he looked deeply at Gu Qingshan and returned to his original posture.
Gu Qingshan was stunned.
"Senior - can you elaborate?" he asked.
The statue comes to life again.
The statue stared at Gu Qingshan and said urgently: "Back then! Back then!... After that... some things suddenly changed!!!"
After the words fell, the statue returned to its original posture again.
Gu Qingshan fell into silence.
This statue is exactly the same as the one on the other side of the closed time loop.
The statue should be fine.
So what changed?
Own.
On the main timeline, what really changes is yourself.
Could it be...
These statues of sword cultivators were deliberately pretending to be a group of liars, but they were actually covering up something.
And this time when they saw themselves, they gave up this cover-up?
——What do they want to say?
Gu Qingshan walked forward a short distance and stopped in front of the second statue.
This statue depicts a handsome young man. When Gu Qingshan walked in front of him, he had already come to life and said impatiently:
"After the Buzhou Mountain was broken, the main world began to face a huge catastrophe."
After saying that, he fell into silence again.
"Dare to ask my friend, what kind of catastrophe is it?" Gu Qingshan asked quickly.
The handsome young man came to life again and said to him: "After the Buzhou Mountain was broken, the main world began to face a huge catastrophe."
He seemed to want to tell some amazing secrets, but he couldn't say one more word anyway.
A look of pain flashed across his face, and then his whole body fell into silence again.
Gu Qingshan stood blankly and counted his breaths.
The main world... began to face... catastrophe.
——Main world.
Who would use such a title?
Gu Qingshan suddenly looked back and saw two rows of sculptures on both sides of the hall, including ancient monks with different expressions and postures.
The ten ancient monks are all different. The only thing they have in common is that they all have a long sword.
Sword repair.
Sword cultivators.
They originally turned into heroic spirits and guarded the main world——
The prehistoric era!
But in one fell swoop, he shattered into pieces behind the Buzhou Mountain, and turned into countless world fragments scattered in the void.
Where are the sword spirits?
What are they doing?
Gu Qingshan walked to the third statue.
The statue suddenly came alive——
This is a white-haired old man, holding a sword in one hand and shouting like a madman: "Just like planting crops!"
Gu Qingshan cupped his hands at him and walked to the next statue of a sword cultivator.
The sword cultivator suddenly came to life and said quickly: "They have learned that person's method!"
Gu Qingshan clasped his fists again and walked towards the next statue.
He walked past every statue and finally listened to what the sword cultivators wanted to say.
"Replacing... can even be said to be changing..."
"They usurped the power of Chaos, and at some point cut into—"
"The laws are hostile to them, but not to chaos,"
"The Advent...sequence...has arrived."
“Everything became two lines.”
"They want to use that person's method to deal with that person!"
Gu Qingshan stood again in the center of the hall.
The statues of the sword cultivators fell into complete silence, but Gu Qingshan could feel that they were looking at him.
"Everyone, I roughly understand." Gu Qingshan said.
There was silence.
——Crash!
The ten sword cultivator statues suddenly shattered on the ground.
The illusory lights and shadows condensed into human shapes, nodding to him one after another, then disappeared into the void and quickly disappeared.
Suddenly, a female voice sounded:
"What's going on?"
A figure fell gently.
But it was the palace maid.
Thanks Daoling.
"Why did you come in too?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Every time I ask them, they say the same thing, but they never break up - but just now I noticed that their spirits have returned to the phase world. Why is this?" the palace maid stared at him closely.
Gu Qingshan said: "Because they felt that I had understood what they meant and there was no need to stay here anymore, so they left."
"Do you understand?" the palace maid asked doubtfully.
"——They felt that I understood, so they left with peace of mind, so I must have understood." Gu Qingshan said.
"What do these sword cultivators want to say?" the palace maid asked.
"Something is changing history - starting from the moment the mountains were broken, but this change is absolutely not allowed, so they borrowed the power called 'Chaos', evaded all punishment, and then planted crops like Just like that, the seeds were planted in history." Gu Qingshan said.
The palace maid thought for a while and then asked: "Everything has become two lines - what does this mean?"
Gu Qingshan fell into silence.
After a while, he said: "I don't quite understand. After all, I have only lived for more than ten years, and now I have barely reached the sixth or seventh level of Qi refining. In the world of cultivation, I have never heard of many things, nor have I seen them. I have, so I don’t dare to talk nonsense.”
"But it doesn't matter." The palace maid said.
"Then let me tell you my guess."
"Say it."
"I simply can't understand that someone can actually change the past. Wouldn't this cause chaos in the world?" Gu Qingshan spread his hands and said.
The palace maid nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"Then, what if we don't touch the original history, but put a parallel line at a certain moment to cover it?" Gu Qingshan asked.
The palace maid was stunned.
Gu Qingshan shook his head and said: "I am young and have little knowledge. If I think about this kind of thing too much, my head will explode, so I can only think of so much."
"...This secret...is really too big, but we still can't know its full story." The palace maid murmured softly.
Gu Qingshan thought of something and suddenly looked forward.
A god is enshrined in the front of the hall.
This is a god in golden armor, holding a mountain peak in his left hand and a strange long sword in his right hand, with a solemn expression.
Behind the man of God is a wall five people high, with murals carved with thick ink and heavy colors, all showing scenes of ancient monks fighting monsters.
Gu Qingshan looked at the mountain peak in the hands of the god.
"Ill-thought..."
He thought to himself.
The palace maid noticed the strange look on his face and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Gu Qingshan came back to his senses and replied: "I was thinking - in this ancient sword formation, what is really important is the enshrined god."
"It should tell us something."
The palace maid followed his gaze and looked at the enshrined god.
