In the big swamp.
Jiang Ye left the main peak of Wushan Mountain, riding the sword wind, quickly crossing the green mountains and rivers that came along the way, heading towards the periphery.
Among the many ancient peaks rising from the great swamp, the aura of sword intent that can be felt has become less and less.
Those fellow apprentices should have left Daze and returned to Nanyi City.
Jiang Ye followed the nearest sword spirit aura and found three Sword Master disciples in a valley.
Unlike Jiang Ye who was clean and tidy, these three people all had some wounds on their bodies.
When Jiang Ye appeared at the mouth of the valley riding the sword wind, three swords fell in front of Jiang Ye in an instant.
Fortunately, they saw the person coming in time and the swords did not fall.
The three of them were sitting scattered on the rocks in the valley, surrounded by swords, and they were probably healing their wounds. Seeing Jiang Ye's arrival, he was quite surprised.
"Why are you here, senior brother? Have you found another location?"
The junior brother who was on the nearest rock raised his hand and retracted his sword, hovering around him, looking at Jiang Ye and asking.
"No." Jiang Ye said slowly, looking at the messy auras of several junior brothers, guessing that he must have met a certain Southern Chu spirit wizard, but he didn't know if it was the same person he met before.
The juniors looked at Jiang Ye with some confusion, wondering what he meant by coming all the way on the sword wind with such great fanfare.
Jiang Ye thought for a while and said: "Something is coming out of Daze. The junior brothers temporarily put aside the search for the location and rushed back to Nanyi City. If you meet other junior brothers on the way, take them with you. go back."
The junior brother who spoke first hesitated a little, looked at Jiang Ye and said, "What did senior brother see?"
Jiang Ye was silent for a while and said: "I don't know how the thousands of souls who come by boat from the depths of Daze belong to the Wuguishen Cult, so I'll call them the Ghost Tribe."
The junior brothers in the valley were startled, riding the sword wind and falling in front of Jiang Ye. They looked at Jiang Ye with their swords in their arms and said, "Ghost tribe? Are you heading towards Nanyi City?"
Jiang Ye shook his head and said: "I don't know either, but it is very likely that he is heading towards Nanyi City. Junior brothers go back as soon as possible. It should be extremely difficult for Zhang Xiaoyu and the Lingnan Sword Cultivators to deal with those shamans and ghosts and the army. , if those people from Styx are really heading towards Nanyi City..."
Jiang Ye didn't finish speaking, but the three junior brothers understood what he meant, put their swords behind their backs, nodded, and said, "Okay."
"It's just that if we leave Daze and no one can control the whereabouts of the witch marks in Daze, and let all the yellow beam troops come over, I'm afraid Nanyi City will be even more uncomfortable."
Jiang Ye said softly: "Senior brother Huaimin and I will come up with a solution."
The junior brothers nodded and headed out of the valley riding the sword wind.
Then it turned into sword light and disappeared into the silent green mountain night.
Perhaps no one knows the extremely complicated emotions in Jiang Ye's heart when he said that sentence "Senior Brother Huaimin and I came to find a solution."
Under the main peak of Wushan Mountain, Jiang Ye stood in the wind for a long time.
Then he chose Huai Min, who believed that his body was taken over by Young Master Wu Bei.
Maybe it's because he seems really sincere.
Jiang Ye stood in the valley for a long time with his sword on his back.
Senior brothers like them, who are already over thirty, naturally shouldn't do such juvenile things.
But the story that was about to happen in this vast area forced him to give it a try.
He didn't know what Young Master Wubei was going to do.
But he was willing to take a gamble.
After waiting in the valley for a long time, until he vaguely saw some more sword lights heading north in the night, Jiang Ye walked out of the valley stepping on the fallen leaves.
The green mountains of Daze were silent at night, and the skylight shone in the distance. It also flowed along the long river for a while, but when it arrived here, it had disappeared.
Just looking up at the green mountains, looking down at the long river, rushing in all directions in the long lonely night.
Jiang Ye walked along the river outside the valley for a while, then suddenly raised his head and turned into sword light, heading towards the sky.
...
The top of the cloudy cliff.
The night is clear and the stars are like water.
Countless fallen leaves are falling one after another.
It's a maple leaf.
This is already a very high place in the world.
Huai Min carried his sword on his back and walked on the maple leaf path, passing through the large flaming red maple forests and heading forward.
The night breeze is quite cool.
So Huai Min took off the robe of a disciple of the Sword Sect—people who use swords often don't wear particularly loose clothes, except for people like Zhang Xiaoyu who like to be cool.
It was quite satisfying to ride the wind away.
After leaving the maple forest, there is a large cliff. Various exotic flowers are in bloom on the cliff, swaying slowly in the night.
Beside a rock surrounded by those strange flowers, sat a scholar with his head tilted in thought.
Huai Min walked toward the scholar with his sword on his back and his clothes open. He bowed rather strangely and said softly: "Long time no see, Master Ziyuan."
The scholar turned his head and glanced at Huai Min, and said softly: "We haven't seen each other for a month, how can we say we haven't seen each other for a long time?"
Huaimin chuckled softly, crossed Ziyuan, walked to the edge of the cliff, sat down on the edge of the cliff, and looked down at the world below.
Those skylights poured into the clouds and mist, causing the clouds and mist between the cliffs to surge like a strong wind in the world.
But the world is really windy.
Huai Min thought so.
The scholar Ziyuan behind him put away the scroll and also walked to the edge of the cliff. He looked at the world and said slowly: "You don't seem very happy."
Huaimin chuckled softly and said, "It's really unexpected for me to hear the word happiness from Master Ziyuan."
"How come you can't think of it?"
Huai Min looked at the human world and said slowly: "In the human world, after the age of twenty-five, few people will say such things as "Are you happy today?" What they usually say is "Is today easy?" So Master Ziyuan suddenly said like this Speaking of which, I don’t know how to answer.”
"Are you over twenty-five?" Zi Yuan asked, looking at Huai Min.
Huai Min sighed softly and said: "It's passed. Both this body and myself have passed the age of twenty-five. Although Huang Liang is not like Huaian who will disappear after twenty-five, Not to deceive the tradition of young people, but after all, he is considered to be a big man. If he is a man from an ordinary family, he is probably worried about being unmarried at this time, instead of sitting leisurely on the cliff like this, talking about happiness with adults It’s a question of whether or not.”
Zi Yuan smiled softly and said, "So are you married?"
Huai Min was silent for a while and said, "Never."
Ziyuan turned to look at the world and said, "Then I probably know why you are unhappy."
Huai Min didn't refute, he just looked at Zi Yuan and asked, "Then is Mr. Zi Yuan married?"
Zi Yuan looked back at Huai Min, looked at the world indifferently, and said, "No."
"It seems that Master Ziyuan is not happy either."
"Yes."
The two of them looked at the clear night sky on the edge of the cliff and felt emotional for a while.
"But my unhappiness probably has nothing to do with whether I get married or not." Huai Min said softly.
"What's that for?"
Huai Min thought for a while and said: "Because I have gained a lot of power that I shouldn't have, but I have also been pushed by some general trends in the river to walk many paths that I don't want to take."
Zi Yuan clasped his hands behind his back, held the scroll and was silent for a long time before he said, "That's true. It's always cold at high places, and there's no freedom in high places unless you are the tallest in the world."
Huai Min looked at Donghai and said softly: "Since there was a Qingyi in Mojian Cliff a thousand years ago, there has been no such title as the highest in the world. So in the whole world, who can be free?"
Ziyuan did not speak, nor looked at the East China Sea, nor at the sky. He just stood quietly on the edge of the cliff, holding the scroll.
It was like I had never heard the word Qingyi before.
Huai Min turned his head and glanced at him, feeling a little strange, but said nothing and looked down at the human world under the sky.
The skylight fell from another higher cliff.
There is an old tree there, and maybe a goddess.
Huaimin didn't know whether Yao Ji was still on the ancient tree on the high platform.
So he just looked towards the world.
There was a flash of sword light in the world.
Huai Min was silent for a while, raised his hand to press the sword in his hand, looked up at Zi Yuan who was standing aside, and asked softly: "I would like to ask your Excellency a few questions."
Ziyuan still didn't speak.
Huai Min then asked himself, "Ms. Goddess, are you interested in the human world intentionally or unintentionally?"
Ziyuan turned to look at the lonely peak where the skylight was shining, and said calmly: "That is the goddess's business, I don't know."
Huai Min was silent for a while and said, "Whoever hears such an answer will feel uneasy."
Ziyuan tilted his head and looked at Huaimin, as if he didn't understand.
Huai Min chuckled softly and said, "Do you know why we people are called Northern Wizards?"
Ziyuan shook his head.
Huai Min said softly: "Because we yearn for the great road more."
Ziyuan sighed, remembered some scenes he had seen before, and said slowly: "That's it."
Huai Min said nothing more, and seemed to be hesitating. His open skirt kept fluttering in the night wind on the high cliff.
Zi Yuan looked at Huai Min and said slowly: "Do you still have questions?"
Huai Min was silent for a while and said, "Are those people from the Styx who left by boat related to Lord Ziyuan?"
When Zi Yuan heard this, he finally understood why the man who was the first to blow the wind of Da Ze walked up the green mountain again and sat in front of him. Looking at the young man in front of him who seemed to have been misunderstood by many people, Zi Yuan He smiled and opened the book in his hand again. Some of the ink inside was not dry yet.
Ziyuan flipped through the book, stopped at a certain page, read it quietly for a long time, and then said: "Many years ago, the Wuguishen Sect was composed of three parts. The Wugui people on the ancient Chu land represented With the word "witch", the human ghosts who should have returned to the River Styx but stayed in the world represent the word "ghost", and the many ghosts and gods in the human world of Qingshan represent the word "god".
Huai Min looked at Zi Yuan quietly, and the scholar said softly: "Master Ling Jun."
Ziyuan did not say whether those people were related to him.
I just told Huai Min one thing.
He studied under Lingjun.
Then naturally he would not be the driver of the people who were called ghost tribesmen by Jiang Ye.
Huai Min smiled softly, looked at the world, and said, "Of course this is the best."
Zi Yuan seemed to be a little unhappy because of the unreasonable speculation, so he left the cliff with the scroll in hand, returned to the rock edge, and sat down surrounded by those strange wild flowers.
Huai Min finished asking the questions, but did not leave.
He just held the Sleepless Sword across his knees, like a real swordsman, sitting on the edge of the cliff, looking at the world.
It seems to be waiting for some story to happen.
...
The ginger leaves turned into sword light and flew straight into the sky.
Such a swaggering sword light can be seen by many people in the world.
But Jiang Ye didn't care, he just crossed the cloudy cliff and landed in the clear sky of those stars.
Stepping on the wind out of thin air, the long sword around him circled with the sword's intention, heading towards a place above the sky where the power of the Styx surged.
That's naturally where a witch mark falls.
The witch marks scattered all over the sky are naturally difficult to detect in those large swamps, but if you walk through the sky, you can clearly detect the rather conspicuous surging points of the power of the Styx.
The disciples of Sword Sect naturally know this.
It's just that there are many unknown people of the shaman and ghost way in the green mountains of Daze, so they have to land on the earth at certain vertical positions that are extremely close to the landing point in order to feel the operation of the power of the Styx. Location.
This was exactly their original plan.
But when Jiang Ye saw the people riding boats in the river, he realized that he couldn't continue dragging them like this.
Turning into sword light and shooting straight into the sky, although one's position will soon be revealed, it is also the simplest and fastest way.
The sword light that the junior brothers left just now should have attracted the attention of the spirit wizard, so Jiang Ye should still have some time.
The sword light suddenly fell in front of the spot where the witch marks fell. Because the previous spot had not been repaired, there was no large-scale activation here. It just stood in the sky and night, turning slowly, like Space-time gears are general.
Huang Liang's people used hundreds of such 'gears' to transport those armies over in an instant.
Jiang Ye raised his hand to hold the sword at his side, and walked forward on the wind. The sword intention surged on the sword body. Under the urging of the vitality in the divine sea, he stabbed the formation where the witch marks were crossing. .
The power of the Styx above the formation is running on its own, as if it wants to prevent the sword from falling, but it is a thing that has no owner after all, not to mention that the art of traveling is a ghost art with no lethality, so those The bloody formation filled with the power of the Styx was pierced by a sword in an instant.
Jiang Ye's figure broke through the formation and left, the sword energy around him stirred, crushing the fragments of the formation that carried a lot of power from the Styx, and then turned into sword light without looking back, heading towards the next place in his perception. Click to rush.
If you look up from the green mountains in the world, you will see something like a meteor streaking across the sky. The meteor passes through the sky, and from time to time it collides with something staying on the sky, and then explodes into an extremely bright light. The light then passed through those lights and continued to shuttle through the night.
Chen Nu just stood on the top of the green mountain and watched.
The previous changes in the sword light of those Jian Sect disciples forced Chen Nu to focus on them.
However, those sword lights were just heading outside Daze, just to return to Nanyi City.
But when Chennu's eyes fell to the sky, the sword light that finally lit up had already passed through the starry sky like a broken bamboo.
There was a lot of anger in Chen Nu's expression, and the anger after being deceived was the hottest.
So he took a step forward, witch marks flashed under his body, and his whole body disappeared on the green mountain.
The practice of ghost magic is naturally the first method of walking in the human world.
Even with many restrictions.
But Dao Feng and Jian Guang also have it.
The restrictions of the three are actually similar.
They all come from the limitations of the vitality in the body or the power of witches and ghosts.
The cost of traveling over time is superimposed.
The sword light is just like Chen He's favorite Tianyan machine, relying on burning the energy of the divine sea to obtain explosive speed.
In Jiang Ye's divine sea at this time, the Dao Sea was constantly vaporizing, turning into extremely majestic vitality, supporting Jiang Ye's rapid speed.
In the blink of an eye, he had broken through three more witch mark formations.
Then on the sky, a witch mark flickered in front of him, and Chennu in witch robes appeared in the sky.
Jiang Ye raised his head and glanced, without stopping, the Dao Fruit in the Divine Sea shook down and turned into a larger amount of vitality. In an instant, the whole person accelerated again.
At this moment, even Chen Nu was in a daze.
The power of witches and ghosts surging mightily in the sky instantly lost its target.
When senior senior brother was fighting Young Master Wubei, he once used a move to turn his body into a sword.
Thus, he crossed the Wu River and landed at the location of the camellia.
It's just that the sword he transformed into at that time was Yun Poyue.
It has greater lethality and is more suitable for breaking the Wu River blockade.
At this moment, Jiang Ye also transformed his body into a sword.
It's just that the sword he transformed into is the most basic sword in Mojianya.
The fastest sword in the world.
Known as a fast character.
This resulted in Chennu, the Southern Chu spirit wizard, losing Jiang Ye's target in an instant.
In an instant, Jiang Ye once again traveled an extremely long distance.
Once again, a crossing formation was broken.
Then I had to stop.
Just as Qiu Xi'er said, the sword of sword cultivation will burn and refine itself during tens of millions of rapid sword strikes.
Therefore, the Human Quick Sword is the most basic sword in Mojian Cliff.
Turn your body into a fast sword.
Naturally, at such a rapid speed, the whole person will be on fire.
Jiang Ye only lasted a moment and then stopped the sword.
Everything on his body, whether it was his robe or the blade of his sword, was burning with cyan flames.
Countless cracks appeared all over the person's body.
Fortunately, the vitality in the divine sea instantly surged throughout his body, suppressing those flames, and preventing him from becoming the first swordsman in the world to burn himself to death because of drawing a sword.
Jiang Ye looked inside the Divine Sea for a moment. It was almost dry, and obviously it was no longer enough to support him using the body-turning sword again.
Fortunately, the moment just now stunned Chen Nu, but it also bought Jiang Ye some time.
It turned into sword light again and fell towards the next formation of witch marks in the perception.
It's a pity that I am not a Taoist.
Jiang Ye thought with some regret.
Sword cultivation strengthens the sword, not the body.
If we talk about the art of strengthening the body, we have to let those Taoist cultivators who are usually adept at doing it.
A formation of witch marks appeared in front of him again. Jiang Ye gathered his thoughts and stabbed forward with a sword.
However, this sword did not fall on the formation.
Instead, he was held by an old hand filled with the power of witches and ghosts.
The witch marks slowly drifted away under Chennu's feet, and he grabbed the sword. However, even though he had the power of witches and ghosts to protect him, under such close contact, the black energy was broken by the sword's intention, and a lot of blood flowed along the Slowly dripping down from the palm of your hand.
Chennu didn't pay attention, and looked at the sword-holding disciple of the Sword Sect in front of him. The power of the shaman and ghost surged around him, and then he used force in his hands.
But he directly broke Jiang Ye's green cabbage sword there like breaking off the tip of a green cabbage.
Jiang Ye didn't look at Chennu, but looked at the world.
Don't know what you are looking for.
