The sky is bright and the air is clear, and the land is vast and bright.
On the land, mountain peaks stand tall, rivers meander, rare elixirs can be found everywhere, and the trees are lush and green, filling the whole world with vitality.
Mu Qing did not expect to see such a scenery of mountains and rivers in the deepest part of the Sword Tomb, and was stunned for a moment.
Lu Tai swept forward, stepped into the mountains and rivers, and said: "When the Wuji Sword Sect was founded, only two peaks were developed, one was Wuji Peak where the sect's main hall was located, and the other was Jinglan Peak.".z.
Mu Qing put away the shock in his heart and followed Lu Tai, walking side by side and said: "The laws and rhythms of heaven and earth flow naturally in this place. It seems that they are not acquired."
Lu Tai looked sideways, "I heard from Su Si that you are good at space magic. I was a little skeptical. I underestimated you."
"The reason why the ancestors of the Wuji Sword Sect chose to establish the sect here was because they discovered this naturally existing space inside Jinglan Peak. This space was also named after this ancestor - Jingming Realm."
The Pure Bright Realm is extremely wide. Mu Qing followed Lu Tai all the way forward, passing no less than twenty peaks on the way. He saw more scenes, and new doubts arose in his heart.
He could see some buildings, but most of them were covered by trees. He could only see the outline of some eaves and corners, and there was no trace of human atmosphere inside them.
"Why is there no one on the mountain?"
"During the early years of the sect's separation, the disciples had to seek refuge in the Jingming Realm from time to time. Later, the Wuji Sword Sect established a firm foothold and even truly received the inheritance of the Sword Master, and this became the Sword Tomb."
Mu Qing grasped the key, "The Jingming Realm became the Sword Tomb. Did it happen after Senior Baishou brought back the Weapon-Zhanbing Sword?"
Lu Tai turned to look at him and said, "Yes. However, there are no disciples practicing in Jingming Realm. It is just because Jianzong has completely established its foothold and it is safer outside."
Lu Tai's last sentence contained a warning. Mu Qing smiled and looked at the mountain peaks with different scenery, his eyes slightly bright, "Jianzhong Jianzhong, is there a sword in every mountain peak?"
"more than."
Lu Tai smiled and said, "If you choose to give up now, I can take you to try your luck and see if there is a sword willing to recognize you as its master."
Mu Qing remembered what Lu Tai said at the beginning - the swords in the Sword Sect are all swords that have lost their masters or themselves.
He shook his head, "These swords shouldn't recognize anyone else as their master, right?"
Lu Tai nodded: "For a sword cultivator, the sword is a companion who shares weal and woe. When a sword cultivator dies, the more intelligent the sword is, the less willing it is to recognize other people as its master. For this type of sword, the green hills of the sword tomb are That’s where they belong.”
"But there are some swords that are exceptions. Their intelligence is equally sound, their personalities are even more independent, and they have begun their own practice. This type of sword will choose a new master after the death of the previous master, and the two will achieve mutual success."
Mu Qing suddenly realized: "Is that why the sword-washing pool exists?"
"Yes." Lu Tai stopped in front of a mountain peak and fell to the ground. "The sword washing pool will wash away the causal entanglement between the sword and the previous owner, and repair the sword body, which will be of great benefit to both the sword and the new owner. It’s good, but there are very few people who can get a sword from the sword washing pool.”
Mu Qing stood next to Lu Tai and looked at the mountain peak in front of him.
Lu Tai said: "Zhuxian Peak, the sword that kills soldiers is on top."
Mu Qing felt it silently for a moment, looking at the Zhuxian Peak, which was not much different from other mountains, and wondered: "I don't feel any ominous energy?"
Lu Tai said with a rather profound look: "The Jingming Realm is the real sword tomb, but standing here in the secret passage of rocks outside, we have passed a total of ninety-seven seals."
Mu Qing frowned and added: "Elder Hidden Sword also set up numerous formations outside the entrance."
Lu Tai nodded, "But even so, you may still feel the raging evil energy while standing on the mountainside of Jinglan Peak."
Mu Qing understood what Lu Tai meant, "The evil spirit cannot be sealed? Then why did I..."
Lu Tai explained: "Whether you can feel the fierceness is actually a criterion. This proves that the sword does not exclude you from entering its sphere of influence."
Mu Qing's heart moved, and Lu Tai pointed out the possible reason: "This should be related to your visit to Shengyuan Mountain. This is something I did not expect before."
Mu Qing nodded slightly, looked up at Zhuxian Peak in front of him, and said, "Can we climb the mountain now?"
"As long as you are ready, you can do it at any time." Lu Tai looked at Mu Qing, "It's just that you are climbing the mountain on your own. In addition, I need you to promise that if anything happens to you, it will be your own choice. "
Mu Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, Sect Leader Lu, I left a jade slip for them. If something happens to me, they will know the reason and will never blame Sword Sect."
Lu Tai nodded with a calm expression: "Then let's climb the mountain."
As Mu Qing walked towards the foot of Zhuxian Peak, he suddenly remembered the bond mentioned by Lu Tai. If this trip went well, he would take the initiative to withdraw from the next ten people to study the Sword Sutra.
There were thick green trees on Zhuxian Peak, and when Mu Qing walked on the mountain road, everything was silent, and he could only hear the breathing between his mouth and nose.
Najie felt hot again, and Mu Qing resisted the urge to look back at Lu Tai, and cautiously asked via voicemail: "What happened to you before?"
Fang Jun said: "Jian Wenxuan used the sword array to cover her aura. It was only when I activated the sword jade that I sensed her presence."
"What about her? Did she notice you?"
"...I don't know."
Mu Qing frowned and muttered: "Lu Tai is using this arrangement to test Elder Zangjian's attitude. According to him, Jian Wenxuan's actions mean that Elder Zangjian is warning him. But why do I feel that Jian Wenxuan has My own opinion."
Fang Jun said: "Hiding the sword requires the overall stability of the Jianzong, so even if he wants to warn Lu Tai, it will not be in this way of letting the risk amplify. It is more like Jian Wenxuan is testing himself."
Mu Qingqi said: "Lu Tai is testing the attitude of Elder Zangjian, so what is Jian Wenxuan trying to test? Her last words may have been said to Lu Tai on purpose, making Lu Tai think that this was Elder Zangjian's. manner."
Fang Jun reminded: "Don't try to understand other people's thoughts, think about what you are doing now."
Mu Qing was stunned: "Jian Wenxuan guessed that I was going to touch the sword, so she deliberately let me go? And because she guessed Lu Tai's temptation, she deliberately stepped in?"
Fang Jun: "This possibility is not small. If you don't see Lu Tai, you think it is the attitude of the elder Zangjian."
Mu Qing recalled the brief moment of contact with Jian Wenxuan. He always felt that although all the details had been presented before his eyes, the innermost motivation was missing.
"What is she trying to find out?"
Mu Qing couldn't figure it out and could only put aside this suspicion for the time being.
This road was walking under the shade of trees, and the air was quite cool. Mu Qing unknowingly speeded up his pace. At a certain moment, Fang Jun suddenly reminded: "Stop!"
Mu Qing's figure suddenly paused, his extended right foot was retracted honestly, and he stared forward.
The trees in front were still dense and everything seemed to be normal. Mu Qing looked towards the ground and noticed something strange.
There seemed to be an invisible dividing line in front of him, and the rich shade of trees stopped there. The light and shadow were bright and dark, and the separation was extremely clear. However, with the leafy branches above and the broken sky, it was impossible to cause this situation.
Mu Qing also wanted to ask Fang Jun what was going on in front of him, but Fang Jun had stopped all movement again, leaving only Na Jie who continued to heat up, as if as a warning.
Mu Qing was silent for a moment, summoned a clone, retreated ten feet away, and then controlled the clone to extend a finger forward.
The boundary between light and shadow fell on this finger very clearly, and there was nothing strange about the clone.
Mu Qing was puzzled. He kneaded the secret with both hands, and a purple-gold vortex mark appeared between his eyebrows. After setting up layers of secret technique restrictions, he let the clone in front of him step forward.
Soon, the clone completely stepped into the bright sky. Before Mu Qing could fully feel the difference, there was a sharp pain between his eyebrows.
The layers of restrictions he had set up in advance were broken almost at the same time, and a scarlet sword shadow appeared in the sea of consciousness, rushing towards the soul in the depths.
All this happened extremely quickly. Even though Mu Qing had been prepared for it, the severe pain occupied his mind for a moment, and it was at this moment that the scarlet red
The shadow of the sword had already broken through to the deepest part of the sea of consciousness, and was striking towards Mu Qing's soul who was sitting cross-legged.
"Pfft——"
A cyan barrier rose out of thin air and surrounded Mu Qing Yuanshen. After the scarlet sword shadow pierced the barrier, red light surged from the sword and scattered into three scarlet streams of light as it continued to move forward.
Mu Qing felt the monstrous aura without any cover in the streamer, and his consciousness suddenly came to his senses, and he realized that this was the aura he was looking for.
He shouted softly, suppressing the fear caused by the fierceness, closing his eyes and falling to the ground.
The Yuanshen entrenched in the depths of the sea of consciousness took the initiative to open his eyes, his whole body shimmering with purple-gold luster, and slapped forward with a palm.
Waves of Hongmeng Purple Qi shot out from the palm, colliding with three fierce Qi, and finally stopped this fatal attack.
The ferocious energy was far more powerful than imagined, and they even knew how to cooperate and cover each other. A stream of ferocious energy even passed through the cage made of purple energy and continued to shoot towards the soul.
"Buzz."
The sword shadow on Yuanshen's back trembled with excitement. The originally golden sword shadow turned into a small white jade sword. He took the initiative to meet it, passed by with a sword, and strangled the fierce energy, and then joined in and occupied it, destroying it again. A fierce aura.
Mu Qing was sitting on the Sea of Observation, his soul forming a seal with his hands on his chest, and a whirlpool of gray mist appeared between his eyebrows.
The Hongmeng purple energy and the small white jade sword forced the last sword energy to get closer to the whirlpool.
"Bang bang bang."
The closer Liuguang got to the whirlpool, the crazier he struggled.
At a certain moment, chains of green light appeared in the center of the vortex, heading straight towards the evil energy.
"boom--"
Feeling the breath on the chain, the fierce energy stagnated for a moment, and then exploded on its own initiative, leaving nothing behind.
The depths of the sea of consciousness quickly returned to their original state, and Mu Qing Yuanshen took back the white jade sword in confusion.
This was the peak sword energy that Ye Qingyu specially branded for him. It helped a lot this time, but it gained nothing.
The gray vortex did not disappear immediately, and Meng Zhang's voice came out: "The situation is not right. The fierce energy should not react like this. The fierce energy just now was obviously controlled by someone."
Mu Qing frowned, "This fierceness has nothing to do with the supervisor?"
"It's the fierceness coming from the guards." Meng Zhang said solemnly: "But because of this, it is even less likely to be controlled by others."
"Leave here first." Meng Zhang urged.
