"Well, Master Uncle said that he is the best friend with Master Lu Ri. The last time I saw you, I didn't prepare a gift. Now that I'm gone, I will give you this snow lotus leaf as a meeting gift." Qianqiu Sect Master continued, listening at a good time. My heart felt hot.
"Alas~" Liangchen let out a long sigh after hearing the sound, and then rubbed the snow lotus leaf, and a refreshing coolness came from his fingers.
After the two of them pondered for a moment, the Qianqiu Sect Master opened his mouth to break the slightly heavy atmosphere on the field.
"Junior brother, have you ever heard of this place?"
“I learned a thing or two from the mouth of Ancestor Wuya.
It is rumored that there is a heavenly eye in the ice domain called Bingxin Road, which is a shortcut to the sky. It's just that the opening time is extremely demanding, and it's located within the Ice Palace's sphere of influence. "Liangchen replied.
"Yes, this ice palace is in the extreme south. You have to cross the Southern Wasteland and cross the vast South China Sea to reach it." Qianqiu Sect Leader said and took out a map. The map was very simple, with only a few continents. mark, and there is a palace pattern at the southernmost end.
"Nine-hearted Snow Lotus, Ice Palace in the Ice Realm..." Liangchen muttered, suddenly thinking that when he returned from Wujiang, he had seen two monks, one red and one black, fighting in the snowy mountains. At that time, the man in red robe was holding ice. The sword, presumably, is from the Ice Realm, and the other one should be Uncle Hidden Dragon.
I once asked the leader what the man in red robe picked up in the end, and the man speculated that it was most likely a snow lotus with seven cores and eight cores. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a nine-heart snow lotus!
"It turns out that that day was the battle between the visitors from the Ice Palace and Master Hidden Dragon!" He muttered with a look of astonishment on his face. Seeing the questioning look on Qianqiu Sect Master's face, he repeated the scene that day, which made him marvel.
"Bing Xin Dao is the most secure passage in the known Heaven's Eye. It is also said to be magical because it is as famous as the Flying Immortal Platform in the temple. Although the master got this great opportunity, it was a pity that he was tied down by worldly affairs and never came back. There is no chance to set foot on Bing Xin Dao!" Qianqiu Sect Leader sighed, as if he understood why many monks preferred to live alone rather than establish a sect.
"Yes!" Liangchen also sighed when he heard this.
Achieving great things may allow you to control a lot of resources, but it also comes with a lot of constraints.
If you want to gain the power of many people, you need to sacrifice yourself. If you want to be free, you must bear the wind and snow alone.
Since ancient times, you can't have your cake and eat it too, and the same goes for the path of cultivation. Although the Zongmen family is a help on the road to cultivation, sometimes it is also a hindrance.
The four sword masters were powerful in Zhongzhou back then, and the sword sect dominated half of the world. However, there was a rift between them because of their different ideas. They struggled for hundreds of years and did not embark on the road to ascension until they fell.
Maybe it's because the sect can't live without a few people, maybe it's because he's afraid of the dangers of the road to the Sky Eye... But after all, he didn't take that step.
"With this object, Junior Brother can ascend to the Immortal Realm from Bingxin Dao. After all, this place is very famous, and it must be much safer than other Heavenly Eyes." Qianqiu Sect Leader said.
"This thing is the relic of my uncle, so it is kept in the sect for the use of those who need it." Liangchen heard this and waved his hands to refuse, but was blocked by Qianqiu sect leader.
"Junior brother! Master Liu Tian's vision, and my uncle Liu Bing's heart, both hope that you can take the road to ascension, and don't be tied down by the sect's affairs for too long, until you finally lose the confidence to break the sky.
After all, ascending to the Immortal Realm is the way to go. Otherwise, even if you unify the Nine Provinces, what's the point of burying the bones in the sword tomb in the end! ? "
Qianqiu Sect Leader seemed to have figured out a lot in an instant. He sighed and continued,
"Although the Sword Sect makes me the master, I respect you in my heart. Not to mention outsiders, even within this sect, there are many people who disobey me.
But I asked you to inherit the position of sect leader many times, but you flatly refused.
Many people think that I am greedy for the position of the sect leader and do not want to give up to others. As everyone knows, I also feel unfair. After all, the Sword Sect's affairs are complicated and take up almost half of the training time.
But when I see you fighting in all directions, refining swords day and night, defeating powerful enemies for the Sword Sect, and stabilizing the formation for the mountain gate, spending more energy than me, I realize that you have sacrificed more and it is harder than me! "
"Senior brother, you think too much!" Liangchen heard these heartfelt words and immediately spoke to comfort him.
However, when I think about my senior brother being the leader of the Sword Sect in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, even though he has put all his efforts into it, in this world of cultivation where strength is the most important thing, there are naturally bound to be some rumors.
"Jian Zong seems to be impregnable now, but in fact it all depends on your strength!
Yu Private, I hope you can ascend to the immortal world as soon as possible, and Yu Gong, I hope you can ascend later, after all, Jian Zong still cannot do without you. "Qianqiu Sect Leader muttered as if he wanted to shake out all the words he had been holding in his heart for a long time.
"Stop talking, senior brother! I'll accept this snow lotus leaf!" Seeing that he couldn't stop again, Liangchen immediately felt a little dizzy, and there were three disciples beside him.
"It's too early to consider the matter of ascension now. We should consider everything in the long term. Let's have some tea!"
"Fill the bowl for Master."
Next to her, Han Meier was stunned when she heard what Qianqiu Sect Master said. She didn't know whether to stay or not. When she heard the master's words, she immediately filled the tea bowl and handed it to Qianqiu Sect Master.
"Master's hard work is seen by all the disciples in the sect. The Sword Sect cannot do without the Master, just like the Sword Formation cannot do without the Master." Han Mei'er said with a sincere face.
Hearing these words, Qianqiu Sect Master's expression moved slightly, he took the tea and drank it in one gulp.
"No more, no more." He muttered, like an uncle next door who just wanted to complain after being wronged.
"By the way, I just listened to my senior brother praising you. Now that I have been gone for seven years, let me see if you are lazy!" Liangchen put away the snow lotus leaves and turned to look at the three of them...
.
Almost at the same time, on an unknown island in the West Sea.
In a secret palace on the island, there were two groups of people standing at the moment. One group was headed by an old man with a purple crown and gold robes, and behind him were several monks wearing floor-length red robes.
Opposite them were dozens of purple-robed monks who were facing a formidable enemy.
"Who are you? How did you find this place?" The leader, a scarred purple-robed monk, asked with a stern face.
"There is nothing in Zhongzhou that Gujin Pavilion doesn't know about." The old man in purple crown and gold robe spoke slowly.
"Who is Your Excellency?" The scar-faced and purple-robed monk was startled when he heard the sound, and then asked again.
"Master of the Ancient and Modern Pavilion." The old man in gold robe said calmly.
"Ah!" Upon hearing this, the purple-shirted crowd suddenly burst into commotion. After all, the Ancient and Modern Pavilion is extremely mysterious. It is simply unbelievable that we can see the master of the pavilion with our own eyes today.
"I wonder why the Pavilion Master came here and broke into my Sword Sect's secret palace?" the scar-faced monk asked again.
"Ye Yuan, are you here?" The Gujin Pavilion Master said a name softly.
