soon.
A figure in black flashed towards him, "Pretend to be a ghost, huh!"
The long sword swept out instantly, and a fire-attributed aura almost covered most of the night sky, slashing towards the black-clothed figure in an instant.
The man in black dodged the attack.
Just the pair's sidestep made Shangguan Yi fall into solemnity.
He is not a fool, and those who can dodge his attack are probably at least at the third level of Foundation Establishment.
This is already very remarkable. Although he did not try his best, the opponent still seemed to be able to do it with ease. Even if it was not in the false elixir stage, it should be almost the same.
"Who are you? Which sect are you here from?" Shangguan Yi asked.
The black man didn't say anything and just bullied him.
Shangguan Yi quickly retreated, his instinct telling him not to let the man in black get close.
But it was too late, a ray of light shone from the man in black.
Rushing towards him quickly.
The speed is so fast that it seems to be able to blast the air.
Shangguan Yi was naturally not a weakling, so he formed a small sword array directly in front of him to block him.
However, the man in black actually carried his sword forcefully and was extremely close to him almost in an instant.
Shangguan Yi's heart was shocked. Just when he was about to use a more powerful move, the man in black retreated directly. Shangguan Yi was puzzled by this operation, but he already had some vague guesses. .
The black man's figure disappeared directly into the darkness, but he could feel that the sword just hit the man in black for real.
Maybe he was injured.
He checked what he had on him and it seemed like nothing was missing.
And there seemed to be no restrictions, so I felt relieved.
He could roughly feel the strength of the man in black just now.
It should only be around the third or fourth level of the foundation building stage. After taking a blow from his sword, you may not die but will be seriously injured.
"Who is this person? Why is he attacking me at this time? I can't understand the number of his skills. He has been using only metallic spiritual techniques." The more Shangguan Yi thought about it, the more he felt that there seemed to be something in it. Things he didn't know.
This person seems to be deliberately hiding his identity. The metallic spirit secret is the Flowing Gold Secret.
This is the most basic technique.
As for other things, since the time of the fight was too short, it was difficult for him to make adequate judgments.
"A disciple in the Foundation Establishment Stage, is he from the Jinding Sect? If he is really from them, would my whereabouts have been exposed long ago? How do they know that I am going to the Wuji Immortal Sect? Could it be that the sect Is there any inner ghost inside?" Shangguan Yi pondered in his heart, but felt more and more solemn.
The things in this are almost impossible to withstand scrutiny, but there is no clue.
He thought for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason.
Fortunately, the person just now was injured by him, and probably no one will come to attack him for a long time.
However, he still planned to change his route to the realm of Wuji Immortal Sect.
This road is the most popular, but from now on, it seems to be unsafe.
In this case, there is no need to continue on this path.
Yun Shu fled far away and just took off his cloak.
He glanced at the place where he had just been hit by the long sword. Very good, a white mark was left there.
It can almost break the skin.
At this moment, he somewhat understood why the leader didn't pass the position of leader to Shangguan Yi. This person's level didn't seem to be very good, but it might have been a hasty fight just now, and it only lasted a moment.
After he struck the talisman on Shangguan Yi's body, he left without any desire to fight, and it was very unnecessary.
Now is not the time to fight.
Wait until he comes back.
However, this talisman only lasts for a month. If he comes back after more than a month, the money will be wasted.
Just let it happen, and all the flowers will be in vain.
Anyway, there will be plenty of opportunities to cause trouble for him in the future.
And after this experience, he will be wary. No matter how suspicious he is, he will definitely not think of it coming to his head.
As for the others, it might just be the Jinding Sect. What would anyone else want from his old life?
The goal can be considered to be achieved.
"Going back." Yun Shu called it a day. As for Shangguan Yi, he didn't pay much attention to it.
If this person doesn't have a longer memory, then maybe someone from the real Jinding Sect will come next time.
Who knows.
Yun Shu walked back from outside, and he didn't ride any horses along the way. With his current strength, even if he was in the air, he couldn't consume much spiritual energy.
Moreover, he walks much faster than the average demon horse, which seems even more unnecessary.
It's a waste of money, isn't it? Good steel must be used on the blade.
After returning to the sect, Yanagawa walked in from the outside and was quite surprised. "Junior brother is back after just one day?"
"Otherwise, if you can't even deal with him, how can you support such a large sect?" Yun Shu smiled and then poured him a glass of water.
"Okay, it's really not necessary." Yanagawa nodded.
As for his wild words, they were automatically ignored.
"Your master asked you to come over and said that there are some spiritual objects that he wants to give to you." Yanagawa took the water poured by Yun Shu and then spoke.
"Okay, I'll go over right away." Yun Shu said.
The master has a destiny, so he naturally doesn't want to delay for a moment, but he turned around and asked, "But, how did senior brother respond when I went out just now?"
"Respond truthfully. As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked if you went to kill Shangguan Yi. I said no." Yanagawa answered truthfully.
Yun Shu's eyes narrowed slightly, and even his steps paused slightly. It seemed that the master knew a lot of things.
And he has come to his senses now, some spiritual creature?
If it were really just some spiritual beings, would the old man still need to come in person?
Even if the master had to guess, he could guess that with his personality, he might not be able to tolerate these people.
After hesitating for a moment, he walked towards the back mountain.
On the way, he tried the golden seal in his hand. It did contain majestic power and was closely related to the entire sect.
That was enough, and he put the gold seal away.
He didn't have much interaction with his master.
In his eyes, the master has always been an extremely kind old man.
However, it is necessary to be on guard. Perhaps only when his strength exceeds that of everyone in the sect can he completely let down his guard.
It seems that all his trump cards have been stripped away, but it seems appropriate to be able to leave some means behind.
He should go to Baibaozhai more often to buy some life-saving means.
Although it is very expensive, when facing an extremely powerful person, only with the capital to save your life can you have the hope of making a comeback.
And he lacks almost nothing now, only a little lack of means.
Arriving at the back mountain, he bowed slightly to the thatched cottage and said, "Master, Yun Shu wants to see you."
"You're here." The door opened slowly, and the old man's voice came from inside. "come in."
Yun Shu walked in from outside.
For him, he had been here once before and it was no stranger to him.
The old man at the top was still sickly, and the tear-like wounds on his body were still stubbornly growing on his body, and there was a rotten corpse aura in his blood.
Yun Shu just looked at it and then withdrew his gaze.
He couldn't bear to see the skinny old man, as if he was dying, and he had suffered such heavy injuries.
"I called you here this time to remind you that the sword pavilion is about to open, so you should be more prepared." The gray-robed old man stopped practicing and then said.
"Okay." Yun Shu nodded. "Disciple must be well prepared."
"In the next period of time, you should focus on Sword Intent. The higher the level of Sword Intent, the more good things you will get in the Sword Pavilion." The old man said.
"The sword pavilion is the last hope in the sect, and it is also the only thing that the super sects cannot take away. It contains the blood sacrifice curse of the three great ancestors of our sect. Those who are not my disciples of Wanjian Pavilion will not be able to practice the techniques in the sword pavilion." Died suddenly." The old man in gray robe said lightly.
But I can also feel the old man's helplessness from it, "The last time the sword pavilion was opened was thirty years ago. Shangguan Yi, I, and the leader each got a skill in it, and what I got was a sword manual."
"But I can't pass it on to you." The old man said with regret, "Because this technique can only be practiced by myself, and there is a curse on it."
"Perhaps only immortals can resolve the curse of a strong man who stands at the pinnacle of heaven and earth." The old man said. "Although the sword pavilion has always been there and still standing, no one has been able to reach the second floor for thousands of years."
"The second level represents the level of sword intent that has entered the hall." The old man said, "There may be some assessments in it, and it may even be about understanding the sword intent. This requires you to continue to improve, and then you can be more advanced. of calmness.”
"Yes." Yun Shu responded.
"With your understanding, it shouldn't be difficult." The old man in gray robe sighed, "The ancestors expected that Wanjiange Pavilion would decline, but maybe they were far from expecting that Wanjiange Pavilion would decline to this extent after a thousand years. It’s almost completely hidden between heaven and earth.”
This is a difficult problem to solve. Even if a legacy is left behind, it is still somewhat useless. It is far from the glory of the past.
"Many super sects also wanted to destroy the sword pavilion. Facts have proved that they succeeded. The sword pavilion was indeed destroyed."
"However, every thirty years, a new sword pavilion will appear again." The old man recalled, "Later, few people in the sect were able to go in and obtain powerful skills, and people from other immortal sects could not enter either. , over time, those super sects themselves also iterated and changed, gave up continuing to destroy, and forgot about this matter."
"Those people said that this sword pavilion is a building made of spiritual power. As long as the many thoughts in Wanjian Pavilion are immortal, it will continue forever." The old man in gray robe smiled, "You should know this, A little deeper than I know.”
"Because you have practiced the God Refining Technique yourself, and you will know what it is like to practice to the highest level."
Yun Shu opened his mouth, he was completely stunned by what the old man described.
God refining technique?
As long as a thought is immortal, the venue constructed by spiritual power will always go on over and over again?
And it was the idea of everyone in Wanjiang Pavilion who used it.
Doesn't it mean that as long as there is one person in Wanjiange, as long as the name of Wanjiange still exists in the mind, Jiange will be there?
This is such a powerful method that only immortals can do this, right?
Is it really possible to achieve this after cultivating the God Refining Art to the highest level?
Yun Shu asked himself that it should be impossible. In fact, in the plot he understood, it seemed that ordinary immortals couldn't do it.
At this time, he remembered it.
The three first ancestors of Wanjiange all got great opportunities from the ancient mines.
In this way, it seems much more reasonable.
I really don’t know how charming the three first ancestors are.
Maybe only people a thousand years ago have seen it.
The power of three people can build Wanjiang Pavilion from obscurity to the pinnacle of heaven and earth. It is truly magnificent!
But this put more pressure on Yun Shu.
It seems that even those super immortal sects are still staring at Wanjiange?
No, their eyes are no longer limited here. Wanjiange has been getting worse and worse within a thousand years, and is almost gone.
In the plot, the family can even be wiped out by a few golden elixir stages.
This doesn't seem worthy of any action from Super Immortal Sect.
But if you grow up again, that's a different matter. Yun Shu thought, maybe even after you have accumulated enough strength, you still have to keep a low profile.
The old man gave him a heads up.
Before you have enough strength, you don't seem to need to show off. Even if you have some strength, you can't fully show it, otherwise you will be at the mercy of others.
This is the principle of prevention.
"The sword pavilion will be opened in more than a month. During this time, you have to prepare well." The gray-robed old man said solemnly, "When the inner sect competition is over, the sect will be reopened. When the sword pavilion is opened, it will be up to you whether you can make a difference and lead the sect to glory again."
"I know, I will prepare well." Yun Shu said directly.
For him, preparing these things is also extremely beneficial to him, and the old man gave him a reminder, and he was able to think about the problem more clearly.
The only thing that needs to be improved now is the sword intent. As for other things, you can put them aside.
This is equivalent to a surprise assessment. It also requires you to have enough strength. You still have one month to prepare, which seems to be enough.
Another thing that needs to be prepared is a large amount of spiritual stones. If the understanding is really tested, then it is impossible to say that he will need to consume a lot of spiritual stones to replenish it. As for understanding or not, it is not that important anymore.
All he needs to do here is burn money.
"This is a spiritual object that I have accumulated over the years. It is just a gift for you to take charge of the sect. Other old men can't give it to you. As for the skills and the like, you may not look down on me. Something." The old man in gray robe said with a smile. "I won't leave it to you."
"This..." Yun Shu frowned slightly, but did not pick it up, "Master is still injured, and he must need a lot of spiritual stones to recuperate. If these things are given to me, the improvement will be extremely limited. How can Master do it?" If you heal your injuries, you will naturally become the mainstay of the sect."
"It's not important anymore, just take it." The old man in gray robe looked at him with gratified eyes, and then stuffed the thing into his hand, "My injury can't be healed by these things, I can only rely on it." By myself."
"These spiritual objects are of great benefit to your physical cultivation. I also know that you spent a lot of time doing tasks before. At that time, my teacher did not expect that you could grow so fast, so I just gave you some spiritual stones. , but those spiritual stones may not be enough for you, which is my negligence." The old man in gray robe said.
No matter what, his tone was extremely gratifying.
He originally thought that Yun Shu's cultivation speed might not be that fast, but now that he thought about it, it had already reached such a terrifying level in less than half a year.
It's really sad.
"This..." Yun Shu looked at the storage bag in his hand. It was as heavy as his heart.
Master has given him everything he can give him.
"The disciple is incompetent and can only watch the master suffer." Yun Shu then said slightly frustrated.
He was willing to help his master buy healing medicine, but he knew that for a strong man in the Nascent Soul stage, this kind of injury could only be treated with time. As for using some magical medicine, the effect may be minimal. .
"As long as your strength can be improved, it will be the greatest comfort to the old man. You don't have to be depressed and blame yourself. I just asked for it. If I didn't enter the ancient mine and listened to Kong Li, I wouldn't have to That's it." The gray-robed old man smiled.
Yun Shu had always had a vague feeling about his master, but now, he felt that his master was also a person of flesh and blood.
He will also be born, old, sick and die, and he will be as kind to him as the elders in the mortal world.
"Disciple must work hard to improve his strength and not let Master run around anymore." Yun Shu said.
His spiritual stones cannot be used for such trivial matters. If his strength can be improved, then he will get more spiritual stones and can better honor his master.
"After the sect competition, it is time for the sword pavilion to open, and then there is the competition between the four sects. After you win the championship with your strength, you will be able to completely establish your prestige within the sect, and you don't have to worry about any other problems. ." said the gray-robed old man.
"It will be of great benefit to you in controlling the sect in the future."
"Disciple understands." Yun Shu's voice paused slightly.
The old man in gray robe seemed to notice his hesitation, but he smiled and said, "What? Does even a small competition reveal a lot about you?"
"Of course not." Yun Shu responded with a smile.
"That's good." The old man in gray robe said, "You can do some things with confidence and boldness. No matter what happens, Master will take care of you."
"Previously, you and the leader were facing each other with swords, and I could see some of your concerns, but next time, I hope you won't have any worries."
"Okay." Yun Shu nodded, and he could also hear what the old man meant.
The old man wanted him to improve his strength as soon as possible. Only by improving his strength could he be able to do things without any worries.
"Shangguanyi, did you kill him?" the gray-robed old man then asked.
"No, you can't kill him. He is a veteran of the sect and has made great contributions to the sect. How can he kill the veteran of the previous dynasty as soon as he takes office?" Yun Shu shook his head gently.
"Well, what you did is right." The old man asked with great interest, "But I would like to hear your opinion on him. I heard Yanagawa say before that you were going to scare him. What's going on? ?”
"That's a long story." Yun Shu sighed softly.
"These old men are all elders of the sect. Even if they abdicate, naturally they cannot kill them all. I can take action against the people of Jinding Sect and Qin Lingyu because they want to harm me. Now Shangguan Yishi and I I almost have no grudges or grudges."
"I just wanted to get some power from him, so I sent him out to see if there was really any change in the Wuji Immortal Sect. This is also something that has a great impact on the sect, and we have to investigate."
"After sending him out, we can hand over some of the sect's rights to senior brother Yanagawa. After all, he is my senior brother from Lingjian Peak and a trustworthy person. I only need to be responsible for improving my strength."
"When Uncle Shangguan goes out, he can ask for some rights, but at the same time it will make him feel that after the sect made such a decision, it has almost given up on him. It can be felt that he still cares about the position of head. If you are obsessed, in order to prevent his thoughts from going too far, I can only pretend to be someone from the Jinding Sect and go to scare him."
The old man in gray robe, "..."
Why do you feel that after listening to it, what seems to be a very simple truth has been made so complicated by him?
But that's right.
If you want to get something done without killing people, you may have some clever tricks.
"Actually, the leader and I are both conservatives, and we once thought about enduring it a little longer." After hearing this, the old man in gray robe sighed softly.
"It's just that later we discovered that the more you tolerate and give in, the more proud others will be to step on you."
"But many things are not that simple. If something is really done, the conflict will definitely escalate, because if a disciple dies today, for the sake of hatred, a stronger disciple will die tomorrow, and a stronger disciple will die in the sect. It caused an uproar within."
"Once these disciples become angry, then the sect war may be coming. It doesn't matter if a handful of our old bones die. Tens of thousands of disciples from Wanjiang Pavilion are still there. These disciples could have a long future. The sword pavilion opens , it’s not necessarily that these people can’t get any inheritance, they are the cornerstone of the sect.”
"So when we can't bear it, we must fight to the end. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Disciple understands." Yun Shu was silent for a moment.
He naturally understood that these people also had their own difficulties, because although they held the decision-making power, the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people under their command were in their hands.
They couldn't help but hesitate.
They were not bloodless, but they were suppressed.
