"You mean, the Shenquan Sword...is the ancestral sword of Ganquan Peak, and wants to harm you?" Song Qingqing looked at Lu Qi with wide eyes and asked in disbelief.
Lu Qi's face was still a little pale. He sat under the stone pavilion, spraying the medicinal porridge that Xue Sanniang had cooked for him with his hands. After taking a sip, his face improved slightly, and then he spoke with lingering fear.
"I'm not sure, but that sword is weird."
"Senior Brother Xiang was imprisoned in Siguo Cliff by his master because of certain things."
"That day happened to be Senior Brother Xiang's birthday. Ling'er wanted to give Senior Brother Xiang some food, so he asked me to find a way to open the sword barrier in front of Siguo Cliff."
"Although this is very troublesome, I have done it for her several times before. Logically speaking, it can be sustained."
"Sword Intent Boundary?" Zuo Zhuanxin's face changed obviously when he heard this, and he asked with a slightly surprised expression: "Senior Brother Lu, you mean that you relied on your own body to resist Si Guoya's Sword Intent Boundary." boundary?"
"The sword intent there is unparalleled, and you only have the fifth level of cultivation. If you do this, you will probably damage your foundation!"
"It's...it's okay." Lu Qi looked a little embarrassed when he heard this.
"Junior sister Zhou is too willful!" But Zuo Chuanxin is a disciple of Ganquan Peak after all. After hearing what Lu Qi said, he probably guessed the whole story. He said with a slight dissatisfaction: "He and Xiang An We are deeply affectionate, but we can’t make fun of Brother Lu’s future and life just for the sake of meeting each other, right?”
Lu Qi waved his hands and said: "It's not what you think. Ling'er knows very little about cultivation, and I rarely mentioned the risks to her, so she didn't understand the trouble involved. , I also blame myself for overestimating my own cultivation..."
Hearing this, Zuo Chuanxin's resentment eased slightly. After all, it was Zhou Ling'er's help that enabled him to lead Lu Qi to escape. Zhou Ling'er was indeed not too bad-hearted, but just too willful.
But Zuo Chuanxin quickly said: "Junior sister Zhou doesn't understand the risks involved, doesn't Xiang An know?"
"Didn't he think about Senior Brother Lu's situation when he and Junior Sister Zhou were spending time together?"
Having said this, Zuo Chuanxin looked at Lu Qi and continued: "Brother Lu, you are the same."
"Since you like Junior Sister Zhou, you should explain everything to her..."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Qi's expression changed and he quickly said: "I...I didn't..."
"I have nothing more than a brother-sister relationship with Ling'er, and I have never had any inappropriate thoughts about my gratitude to Master."
As soon as these words came out, before Zuo Chuanxin could respond, Song Qingqing on the side rolled his eyes first: "You are really licking and timid..."
"You deserve Zhou Ling'er to be deceived by Xiang An!"
These words were somewhat harsh, and Lu Qi's body was extremely weak at the moment. Chu Qingxiao couldn't help but worry. He looked at Song Qingqing, wanting to stop him from continuing to mock Lu Qi.
But who would have thought that as soon as he said these words, Zuo Chuanxin on the side nodded in agreement: "Senior Brother Lu, Miss Song's words are not rough or unreasonable."
"It's human nature for a man to love a woman, so what's not to say?"
"What's more, that Xiang An is really not a good person. The more you care about Junior Sister Zhou, the more you should let her see Xiang An's true face. Otherwise, how can Junior Sister Zhou be happy if she is entrusted to someone like Xiang An?"
Several of Zuo Chuanxin's senior brothers were loved by Xiang An, and they already wanted to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin. Naturally, they no longer had any good impressions of him.
Lu Qishang didn't know what happened after he was unconscious. Hearing this, the expression on his face was a little tangled.
Chu Qingxiao also knew that with a personality like Lu Qi's, it was difficult to make quick choices in emotional matters.
His body had not yet recovered, and Chu Qingxiao did not want to make him too worried, so he quickly changed the subject: "So, Brother Lu, the reason why your condition worsened is because after you returned that day, you were pulled by Miss Zhou to open the Sword Intention Knot. Realm? Using the power of the red ghost in the body?"
When Chu Qingxiao asked this question, he frowned slightly.
He clearly remembered that when he parted with Lu Qi that day, he had given countless instructions to tell Lu Qi that the condition in his body was dangerous. Although he helped him dispel some of the red ghost's power, it was far from being completely cured and would not be cured until it was a last resort. , you must never use the power of red ghost again.
But Lu Qi couldn't stand Zhou Ling'er's pleading and put his own safety at risk. It was too stupid to act like this.
When Lu Qi heard this, he shook his head: "When I returned to the mountain gate that day, I did meet Ling'er, and Ling'er took her to Siguo Cliff to open the barrier for her."
"But I remember Brother Chu's explanation, so I made an agreement with Ling'er from the beginning. I will try to open the barrier, but if I can't do it without using the power of the red ghost, I can only give up temporarily today. "
"Although Ling'er is a little unhappy, I am determined and she can only agree."
"But what I didn't expect was..."
"In the past, I had to spend a lot of effort to open the sword barrier. That day, I just activated the spiritual power in my body a little, and the sword spirit lingering at the door of Siguo Cliff automatically dispersed, opening a hole."
"I thought it was weird at the time, but how could Ling'er know this? When she saw the barrier opened, she rushed in happily. I couldn't stop her, so I could only let her enter..."
"The Sword Intention Barrier in Ganquan Peak Si Guo Ya is very special. Once someone enters without relying on the Peak Master's token, the Sword Intent Barrier will continue to counterattack. Someone needs to fight against the Sword Intent at the barrier to stabilize the Sword Intent Barrier. , otherwise the sword will attack those who enter the sword enchantment."
"Ling'er walked into the Sword Intention Barrier, and I could only stand in place to support the barrier to prevent the Sword Intent in the Sword Intention Barrier from counterattacking and hurting her."
"I've done this kind of thing many times before, so I'm pretty familiar with it."
"Generally speaking, it is much more difficult to open the Sword Intention Barrier. At this time in the past, I had to use the power of the red ghost to do it, but maintaining the balance of the Sword Intent Barrier does not need to be like this. It will just continue to consume the spiritual power and sword intent in the body."
"But the situation that day was a bit weird. I only used my spiritual power slightly to open the sword enchantment, but I could maintain the balance of the sword enchantment, but something went wrong."
"In the beginning everything was the same as before."
"It's just that before I went, I suffered some injuries and had a fight with Desolation. My body is much weaker than usual. It's a little difficult to maintain the balance of the sword intention barrier, but I can still hold on."
"But after about a quarter of an hour..."
Speaking of this, Lu Qi paused, and there were waves of fear in his eyes at that time: "The sword intention that should have been lingering around me suddenly stopped surging in disorder. They seemed to have their own." General consciousness suddenly enveloped me and locked my body."
"I realized something was wrong and wanted to use the power in my body to escape."
"But just holding on for that quarter of an hour consumed very little of the strength in my body, and I couldn't move for a while."
"Then, I felt that the power in my body began to be extracted by a force. No matter how hard I struggled, it had no effect..."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions became a little strange.
Zuo Chuanxin was the first to ask: "You mean, the Shenquan Sword is controlling those sword intentions to imprison you and at the same time extract the power from your body?"
When asked this question, Zuo Chuanxin's face was obviously full of confusion.
As a disciple of Ganquan Peak, the ancestral sword Shenquan Sword naturally has a very important weight in his heart.
He probably didn't want to believe that the ancestral sword of Ganquan Peak would do something detrimental to the disciples of Ganquan Peak.
"Yes." Lu Qi nodded, with a serious expression on his face. He obviously understood how much impact this matter would have on Ganquan Peak if word spread -
Ganquan Peak, one of the majestic Tianxuan Seven Peaks, and the ancestral sword regarded as a sacred object by disciples of all generations, turned out to be a monster that can steal human flesh and blood.
This is enough to destroy the century-old reputation of Ganquan Peak.
Therefore, one needs to be cautious when making such inferences.
But Lu Qi's answer was extremely positive.
"I can feel that the sword intention comes from the Shenquan Sword. After all, before that, I had fought with this sword intention many times in order to help Ling'er."
"Of course...it's also possible that the Shenquan Sword is controlled by some people with evil intentions..."
Lu Qi still left some room for himself, but the Shenquan Sword had been without an owner for many years. The successive Ganquan Peak lords of Tianxuan Mountain had tried to pull out this sword, including some amazing geniuses, but they still could not master it. Sword, who has the ability to control the Shenquan Sword silently?
After receiving such an answer, Zuo Chuanxin suddenly fell silent, but he still didn't want to believe it. After pondering, he asked again: "Senior Brother Lu, if things are really what you said, whether it is the Shenquan Sword, control the Shenquan Sword. No matter how evil you are, he wants to absorb your power."
"Since you no longer had the ability to resist at that time, how did you survive in the end?"
Once the Shenquan Sword gives birth to an evil spirit, usually the evil spirit will act according to its own instinct, just like a hungry ferocious beast that will eat its prey until there are no bones left. An evil spirit hungry for power will naturally eat it. The opponent's power was completely devoured until his heart dried up and he died.
It is indeed incredible that Lu Qi could survive.
And faced with the doubtful looks cast by everyone at this moment.
The expression on Lu Qi's face also became a little strange.
He reached out and touched his chest, the light in his eyes dim.
He had been in a coma for a long time, and his head was still a little dizzy. His memories of that day, especially those before he fell into coma, were not very clear. At this moment, facing everyone's questioning, he tried hard to recall everything that happened that day.
He vaguely remembered that before he was wrapped in the sword's will, the power in his body was constantly being devoured, until it was almost exhausted.
His black prison suddenly began to tremble.
For the first time, it came out of its sheath without Lu Qi's urging, and came to Lu Qi's body. A stream of blood-red power overflowed from the Black Prison's sword body, trying to wrap Lu Qi up and fight against that The sword intent lingering around Lu Qi.
It's just that the sword intent inspired by the Shenquan Sword is so powerful that Black Hell Tower seems to be unable to compete. The broad sword body is like a small boat in the sea, swaying and teetering in front of the vast sword intent.
Finally, at a certain moment, it seemed that Black Prison could no longer withstand the constant impact of the sword, and cracks appeared on the sword body.
With a soft "bang" sound, the Black Prison suddenly shattered.
And before Lu Qi fainted and died, the last scene he saw was a red figure appearing among the broken fragments of the giant sword, wrapping Lu Qi tightly with his rotten and ugly body. …
