After June, it’s winter again.
Zhongzhou, Linbei City.
The flying snow in the sky covered a magnificent city in front, and only the tall city wall could be vaguely seen. At the arched city gate, only some ragged pedestrians could occasionally be seen entering and exiting.
A month ago, the Yulin Guards appeared here and surrounded the Tantai family who had lived in the west of the city for generations. However, because the Tantai family was protected by formations, it has not yet been breached.
People in Linbei City are all talking about why the Yulin Guards of the imperial capital suddenly besieged the Tantai family. You must know that the Tantai family is an extremely powerful family among the five surnames of the Tang Dynasty, not to mention the extremely talented prince. Seven or eight of the elders who still exist today have entered the upper three realms. There is even an ancestor who has lived for almost two hundred years. It is said that he stepped into the fairyland with half a foot and almost became a mortal. The old fairy in.
When Shen Yu arrived in the west of the city, a group of Yulin Guards soldiers wearing black fish scale armor stopped him. After casually throwing the sign of Xunyao Division over, the pair changed their expressions and dumped him at the command post.
"Master Shen, why are you here?" A burly-looking military man handed the Xunyao Division waistband back to Shen Yu and asked.
Shen Yu said casually: "It's a small thing, it has nothing to do with what you want to do."
The commander didn't say much, waved his hand and let Shen Yu go in on his own.
Nowadays, countless practitioners in the Yulin Guard army are besieging this place with magic weapons that they are sizing up. The Tantai family is actually calm and turns a blind eye to this.
After Shen Yu arrived at the antique manor, an old servant came with him.
"But Mr. Daozong Shen Yuchen?"
Shen Yu frowned, nodded and said, "How do you know my identity?"
The old servant smiled and said respectfully: "The young lady has returned home now and asked me to invite Mr. Shen here."
It turned out to be the woman who had fought with Shang Yingluo. That day in Xuanyu City, Shang Yingluo got the Jingqing Sword, and the two spiritual weapons were combined into one. They fought with Tantai Yuhuan for a long time, and the two of them couldn't decide the outcome.
In the end, after Fang Guogong and Xiao Chengyan fell into the rift in time and space at the same time, she pulled away.
Thinking of the woman's identity, Shen Yu felt a little disgusted, but she still didn't show anything on her face and nodded casually.
Passing through several exquisite painted circles along the way, Shen Yu arrived at the sword tomb of the Tantai family.
It was a rolling hill without any flowers, grass or trees. Countless rusty swords were stuck upside down on the ground, forming a dense forest of swords.
This is the Tantai Sword Tomb in Central Continent, second only to the Sword Immortal City. It is said that there are millions of immortal swords in it that were produced by countless practitioners in the world.
Every sword cultivator hopes to come here to receive the inheritance of an immortal sword.
At the highest point of the sword tomb, a beautiful woman in red stood there quietly, her sleeves fluttering, like a born fairy.
Shen Yu glanced casually and asked calmly: "I'll get the sword."
As soon as he stepped into the sword tomb, a familiar sword intention poured into Shen Yu's heart. The long-lost feeling made the power of cause and effect in him loosen.
Qingxuan Sword.
Right here.
The woman turned her head and looked at Shen Yu quietly with her blue eyes. After a long time, she asked, "Do you know that sword?"
Shen Yu nodded and said, "That was my old sword."
Tantai Yuhuan's face showed an expression of disbelief, and she said in surprise: "This is a sword from three thousand years ago. Are you..."
Shen Yu said calmly: "The sword of my previous life was lost for three thousand years. I have been looking for it, but I didn't expect it to stay here."
Tantai Yuhuan's eyes widened and she asked curiously: "What is it called?"
"Qingxuan." Shen Yu said.
After saying that, Shen Yu looked at the broken sword deep in the sword tomb that was suppressed by countless immortal swords.
"Here comes the sword!"
The broken sword suddenly released thousands of rays of light, and the countless fairy swords that were originally entangled around it were annihilated by the sword light at this moment and turned into ashes.
Then the broken sword soared into the sky and rushed towards Shen Yu
Come flying.
"Long time no see." Shen Yu murmured as he reached out to hold the sword hilt.
After waking up, the sword he had been looking for all these years was finally found, which also meant that many of the doubts in his heart would be revealed. For the first time, there was a hint of excitement on the man's face.
Only he knew in his heart that Qingxuan Sword had experienced the divine thunder that came to the world three thousand years ago, as well as the three immortal weapons that crossed the boundary between heaven and earth.
Holding the broken sword upside down, Shen Yu turned around and walked away indifferently.
Countless powerful auras rose into the sky, but they were all stopped by Tantai Yuhuan. She said seriously: "There is no need to stop him. This person has a special status. In the spiritual wasteland, perhaps no one can be his enemy with one sword."
Then, the woman quietly looked at the retreating figure, and her ancestor's words echoed in her heart.
"I am immortal in this life, but there is still one person in this world that I am afraid of."
"Over there is Master Qingxuan Sword, Master Taixuan."
...
...
Shen Yu was sitting on the wall, the sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun stretched his back, and the broken long sword was quietly stuck on the ground.
The broken sword had long since lost its spirituality, leaving only a trace of vague aura.
Shen Yu finally understood his origin at this moment.
Three thousand years ago, when Taixuan Zhenren died, someone used great magic power to forcibly leave behind a soul that merged into the Qingxuan sword spirit, and was then driven into the Nine Netherworld.
Three thousand years later, the Qingxuan sword spirit carrying the remnant soul of Master Taixuan was reincarnated in the Shen family of Nanhe City, named Shen Yu.
It turns out that Shen Yu is not only the real person Taixuan, but also the sword spirit of Qingxuan.
When those three immortal weapons flew in at the same time, Qingxuan Sword originally planned to perish together with them, but was stopped by someone from outside the world. It only saw that person's appearance at the last moment.
A God who has existed forever.
Even Qingxuan Sword couldn't recognize the origin of that god. Taoist ancestors, Buddhas, Confucian sages, and Qingxuan flashed countless figures at that moment, but none of them overlapped with that god.
The god was too late to stop the three immortal weapons, so he could only rescue a trace of the remnant soul of Master Taixuan, and then put him into the Qingxuan Sword, and then into Jiuyou.
Shen Yu frowned.
gods.
There are countless practitioners in the spiritual wasteland, but there has never been a so-called god, and there is no such vast and majestic god of heaven and earth.
What makes people wonder is why Taixuan Zhenren actually provoked such a god to take action, and there was also a god who used this to reincarnate him.
Is this a more ancient secret?
If there is a place related to God, it is the temple that suddenly appeared on the top of the Cangqiong Mountain.
Shen Yu looked at the distant sky indifferently, as if he could see through the Cang Qiong Mountain thousands of miles away at a glance.
If it weren't for the power of cause and effect in his body, Shen Yu would have wanted to step onto the top of the mountain in the next moment to meet the master of the most mysterious temple in the world.
There is a connection between the temple and the gods.
But before that, he still needs to meet Dao Yan. Before his appointment with Song Nu, there are still many secret things to ask him.
Of course, there is also the dean of the academy, who is also the person Shen Yu most expects to see.
...
...
Three months later, Daozong.
Shen Yu once again stepped into the Feilai Peak that was filled with the fragrance of spiritual flowers and herbs.
Su Mo looked at him with a smile and said calmly: "Junior brother, you have lost your cultivation again. This time, my father can't cure you."
Previously, Shen Yu suffered a backlash from Heaven. It was with the help of the Heavenly Book in the academy that he was able to practice again after giving up his cultivation.
But now, even the academy is powerless with the power of cause and effect.
Yang Liu on the other side was full of worry and hesitated to speak.
Shen Yu smiled and comforted: "It doesn't matter, there will always be a way to solve it."
Su Mo glanced at the gentle Yangliu and said, "Don't worry, your senior brother Shen Yu has had countless adventures. Although you are surrounded by the power of cause and effect,
Maybe it's another opportunity. "
Seeing that the two of them looked calm, Yang Liu felt a little relieved. He made tea for them and then turned to say goodbye and leave.
When the woman's figure walked away, Su Mo put away his smile and said solemnly: "How much longer?"
Shen Yu said calmly: "Three years."
Su Mo's eyes dimmed and he murmured, "Is it only three years?"
Shen Yu said: "It's already pretty good to be able to save one's life in the hands of Heaven."
Su Mo sighed and said, "Junior brother always does some worrying things. Even if the master saw the people in Fuyao Mountain, he didn't take action."
Master Dao Yan traveled thousands of miles and had long known about the sword god on Fuyao Mountain. However, he had always been dedicated to seeking the truth and did not care about the mysterious old man.
Shen Yu didn't want to continue talking about this topic and asked, "Where is your father now?"
Su Mo thought for a while and said seriously: "In the academy."
Shen Yu asked: "He is also waiting for the battle between Zhenren and Song Nu."
Su Mo nodded and said, "Yes, the entire spiritual wasteland is waiting for that peak battle. Both Master and Song Nu hope to take that step and find a way forward for all practitioners in the world."
Shen Yu looked at the sky. Three thousand years ago, he had reached that realm, but the road ahead was unclear. He, Sword God, Luo Hou, and Zhu Jiuyin all tried to break that barrier.
But in the end, Zhu Jiuyin disappeared, Luo Hou was suppressed, the sword god assimilated with heaven and earth, and he was reincarnated after death.
Now three thousand years have passed, and two more peak cultivators want to touch that barrier.
"Zhenren, are you out of seclusion?" Shen Yu asked.
Su Mo shook his head and said, "I haven't left the quarantine yet. Thirty-three days ago, Master Daoxuan went in a few days ago."
Daoxuan Zhenren?
Shen Yu looked at Su Mo from now on, a little confused.
Master Daoxuan is the senior brother of Master Daoyan, and he is also the master of Yanfa Hall. He is the highest-ranking person in Daozong nowadays.
When Shen Yu first entered the Dao Sect, he was also very popular with this person, and even wanted to accept him as his disciple.
Su Mo sighed: "After all, we have been brothers for hundreds of years. There are some things that need to be settled."
Shen Yu looked towards the sky, seeming to see through the scene of those thirty-three days at a glance. He did not expect that the person Dao Yan had been waiting for so long was actually him.
The person who has been hiding in Daozong for nearly a hundred years is actually the most senior person in Daozong today.
But why would Master Daoxuan do this?
...
