In ancient times, the continents were not divided and were called "primitive".
The primitive continent was so vast that neither its beginning nor its end was known. There were countless creatures on it, which could be divided into three categories: scales, animals, and birds.
Those with scales are headed by dragons, those with beasts are headed by qilin, and those with flying birds are headed by phoenix. The three are favored by heaven and earth, are born with spirits, swallow the essence of the sun and moon to replenish themselves, and eat all things in the world to fill their stomachs. They are thousands of feet long, can go up to heaven and enter the earth, and are omnipotent. Therefore, all beasts are subdued.
Over time, some beasts secretly learned the method of vomiting and breathing, and then opened their spirits, and gradually developed the ability to break mountains and crack earth, and they were called "demon". The method of vomiting and inhalation spread more and more widely, and eventually groups of demons appeared everywhere. Every time the moon was full, thousands of demons worshiped the moon.
There is a clan among them, named "people". Human beings are divided into four bodies. They are no more than ten feet tall. Their muscles and bones are weak. They gather together in groups, live in caves and eat carrion, lingering in the world.
However, people who are born psychic, see all the demons breathing in and out, and get used to it, and gradually feel the spirit of heaven and earth, draw the vitality of heaven and earth into the body, cut the marrow of the Yi Jing, and eat the Qi to make a living, they are Qi practitioners.
Those who practice Qi can understand Yin and Yang, understand things, create words and rituals, gather people to teach and transform, and then build a country and stabilize it. At this time, the human race was first established, hunting small monsters and beasts, expanding its territory, and multiplying.
Sometimes there is a big demon who traps people for food, so all Qi practitioners should be like them. There are smart people who hold the essence in their divine form and form a golden elixir, realize the way of heaven and break the elixir to transform into a baby, fly to the sky and escape to the earth, have immeasurable magical power, kill monsters in the palm of their hand, choose a beautiful place with mountains and rivers to establish a clan, and call themselves " "Immortal" is based on Taoism.
In the following thousand years, the human race flourished, and Taoist sects were established in great numbers, gradually becoming a fire-starting prairie fire. Among them, Xuanyuan, Shangqing, and Taiyuan sects were the most respected. For a time, talents emerged in large numbers, and the trend of human-monsters was reversed.
The three tribes of Dragon, Phoenix and Qilin were furious and led thousands of demons southward, destroying cities and countries along the way, leaving ruins everywhere they passed. The three factions gathered the power of cultivators to fight against the demon clan in Tianzhu Mountain.
In this battle, all the elites of the human and demon clans came out, and the fight was so violent that the earth was shattered, corpses were everywhere, Tianzhu Peak was razed to the ground, all living things in the surrounding area were extinct, and no grass could grow, making it a desperate place in the world.
After this battle, the vitality of both tribes was severely damaged, the three demon elites were completely lost, and there was no trace of human Taoism. Therefore, Tianzhu Mountain was used as the boundary to divide and rule them, and recuperate.
For more than 10,000 years since then, although the two tribes had conflicts from time to time, they never started fighting again. There are even legends about a great demon who understood the method of transformation and entered the human city, became literate, learned etiquette, and even married a wife and had children.
Because the killings were too heavy, or the ascetics had too much energy in their bodies, demons and ghosts gradually appeared in the human race, and ghosts happened all over the place. There were also demons from outside the territory who came looking for energy, invisible and insubstantial, and invaded the human body. It uses the seven emotions as nourishment and the six desires as food, polluting its spiritual platform and confusing its consciousness until the spirit disappears. It can be divided into thousands of bodies. Only a little magic light can make a comeback. It is really unpredictable.
There is a Taoist who understands the method of subduing demons, seizes the turbid air of heaven and earth and uses it as a cage, enslaves it, controls it and refines it. After refining the demon, you can get a little essence, and taking it can strengthen the soul. Over time, the soul becomes stronger and the body becomes weaker. The magical power is cunning and cunning, the closeness is turbid and the distance is light. He takes the abyss of Jedi as the gate of the mountain and calls himself "spirit".
However, this method will undoubtedly draw chestnuts from the fire, and sometimes people who are eager for success will be attacked by the devil, and their minds will be confused, which will cause disaster for them. The people in the Immortal Sect want to cut off its roots, and the war between the Immortals and Spirits has begun. The disputes continue to this day without any results.
More than a thousand years ago, there was a monk named Lu Mingyou who had reached the Nascent Soul Realm. He was obsessed with the mountains and rivers and did not want to make progress. He determined to travel around the Yuanshi Continent. He spent more than a hundred years traveling to the southernmost point and saw a large body of water and vast water. It is boundless and is called "the sea".
After going out to sea for more than ten days, I saw an overseas continent. It was covered with clouds and fog, and there was no way to enter it. I could vaguely see the fairy in feathers walking through the clouds, but I couldn't catch up. I later called it "Penglai" in my travel notes.
After several dozen days of walking again, we saw another continent, but we still couldn't get in. A high platform with shining light could be seen in the clouds and smoke, which was called "Lingtai".
Turning to the east and traveling for more than a hundred days, I saw a large continent again, with purple bamboos standing on it and Sanskrit sounds bursting out. After hearing it, I meditated and calmed my heart, and my soul was relaxed. However, it suddenly disappeared. After waiting for more than ten days, I could not see you again. I looked up to the sky and sighed helplessly. I recorded it as "Pure residence".
His whereabouts were unknown in the end, and only "Road Travel Notes" have been handed down to the world.
When Yuan Qing went to school when he was young, he heard many stories about monsters eating people and gods exterminating monsters. Later, when he went to the mountains to join the sect, the only beasts he saw were captive spiritual pets. He never imagined that there would be such grudges between humans and monsters, and he couldn't help but I have a sincere admiration for the ancient sages.
Immediately I thought of the differences between immortals, spirits, demons and demons, especially the two kinds of spirits and demons. It is true as Tian Yi said, "On the outside, there are tribulations of swords and weapons that destroy the legal body, and inside, there are the fires of inner demons that confuse the mind. Every step is dangerous and dangerous." If you are not careful, your body and soul will disappear, and you will not even be able to enter reincarnation."
However, when I suddenly thought about it, I thought about the vastness of the mainland and the illusion of the overseas fairy continent, and the heroic idea of traveling with a sword suddenly came into my heart. When I thought about it carefully, I felt that I should imitate the ancient sages, slay demons and eliminate demons, protect the rise and fall of human races, and protect the continuation of Taoism. For a moment, his mind was in confusion, and the silver light on his body flickered on and off.
"Cheng~" The sword shadow of Yuan Qing's Consciousness Sea shined brightly, and the chaotic thoughts in his mind instantly disappeared under the sound of the sword. The Qi Mansion sword embryo turned sharply, and the heaven and earth energy gathered in the secret room all entered the body, and threw himself into the furnace. , the fire of the five internal organs flourished, gathering together to produce a little silver flame, which wrapped around the sword embryo like a slender snake.
It was as if a layer of shell had been peeled off, and the surface of the sword embryo cracked and fell off. A small silver sword gradually revealed its shape. The whole body was shaken. The remaining shell and the small snake were annihilated and turned into dots of starlight. Then a dragon-like sword energy carried starlight around the sky, and the starlight sword energy merged into the bones of the meridians, and finally dissipated.
Yuan Qing's chaotic thoughts suddenly became clear. Immediately, the spiritual platform shone with light, and silver light entered his body. He raised his sword and went straight into the sky. He chanted softly: "The clear mind cuts off the worldly world, gather fire to sharpen the edge of the sword, and cut away the binding of the body." Lock it and go straight to Qingmingtian!"
After calming down, Yuan Qing returned to Qingyuan Residence, walked to the entrance of the secret room, looked at the dark big hole and thought: "It seems that I need to learn how to make the secret room. This big hole is too conspicuous without any obstruction." Then he did not enter the secret room, went to the outer quiet room, sat down, took out the "Taibai Sword Sutra" and immersed himself in it.
Three months later, in Miaomiao Lake, a snow-white flying sword was moving in mid-air, extremely agile.
Yuan Qing stood on a half-bridge made of bamboo, twirling his fingers to make secrets. Suddenly, the magic formula in his hand changed. The flying sword stopped, the tip of the sword pointed downward, and it turned slowly. The sword energy rolled down like a waterfall; the magic formula came again. Change, the sword energy suddenly stopped, the flying sword rose up to the size of three feet in the wind, with silver light shining on it, and it slashed down with thunderous force. Before the giant sword arrived, the lake water had already separated to both sides, forming a lake about ten feet deep. The gully; the magic formula changed again, the giant sword shrunk rapidly and returned to a three-foot long sword. He reached out and made a move, and the long sword returned to Yuan Qing's hand like a swallow returning to its nest. Then he waved flatly, and the long sword seemed to have lost its shape. It turned into a piece of psychedelic mist and sprayed out, covering the area about ten feet ahead. The silver light was shining and really beautiful. It suddenly turned into a sword shape and was put into the storage bag with a flip of the palm.
In March, Yuan Qing was obsessed with the "Swordsmanship Chapter of Taibai Sword Classic", and finally practiced most of the foundation-building swordsmanship recorded in it, and used it freely. Except for the "body and sword integration" technique that had not yet been fully developed, there was only one skill called "Swordsmanship". I have never understood the peerless swordsmanship of "Sword Qi and Thunder Sound".
According to the Sword Scripture, this technique of sword energy and thunder can only be practiced when one has reached the late stage of foundation building, and it requires a peerless genius to understand it. Once mastered, the sword light is as fast as thunder and has unparalleled power.
"Now that there are only two points of merit left, and some achievements in swordsmanship, it's time to leave for the merit hall to see if there are any suitable tasks." Yuan Qing looked at the distant mountains with his hands behind his back and murmured to himself, "But there is still one more thing before we go there. thing……"
After speaking, he summoned the Water-Breaking Sword and rose from the ground. He returned after a cup of tea and walked to the entrance of the secret room. He waved his sleeves and saw a three-foot-square bluestone slab tightly covering the entrance of the cave, and then covering it with green bamboo. It strives to be the same as other indoor stores, but looking left and right again and again, there is a sense of deception.
Yuan Qing smiled bitterly and shook his head, becoming more determined to learn the secret chamber casting method. Then he walked out of the house and headed straight to the Hall of Merit with his sword.
In an unknown valley within Xuanyuanmen, a small waterfall pours down into the clear pool below, with three or two fish swimming in it.
There is an octagonal flying pavilion built a hundred steps away from the pond. There is a four-cornered stone table in the pavilion. Four people are sitting in front of the table, drinking genuine tea and chatting: The person in the east is wearing a white robe with embroidered gold, star eyebrows and sword eyes, it is Su Apocalypse; the person in the north has a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is wearing a yellow robe. He is Wang Hao; the person in the south is wearing a long green skirt, wearing a sapphire hairpin, and an arrogance that cannot be hidden on his face. He is actually Zhao Feiyan ; The man to the west looks to be in his thirties, with short hair and beard, a righteous look on his face, wearing a blue embroidered brocade, his brows are furrowed and he is worried.
"Brother Han, the matter of spiritual veins has been put on the merit list, why are you still frowning?" Su Tianqi took a sip of his tea cup and said.
"Junior brother, I don't know. It's been more than ten days since my younger sister went to investigate. No news has been sent back. Her life and death are not yet known. Moreover, this mission has been released for three days, and no one has taken it. If it weren't for Elder Zhao's request, I would really leave. If you don't open it, you would have gone back to your clan by now." The man surnamed Han said with a long sigh.
Before Su Tianqi could answer, Zhao Feiyan took the lead and grabbed it: "Hmph, Han Dongxing, these materials are used by our ancestors to refine the demon-slaying treasure. If you don't do your best and miss the date, can you afford it? "
Han Dongxing snorted coldly and said, "There is no need for Miss Zhao to remind me. Han will hand in the materials on time."
At this time, Wang Hao laughed and said: "Junior sister Zhao, there is no need to worry, Brother Han is also anxious for a while, but I have thought of a perfect candidate for Brother Han."
"Oh, why does Junior Brother value him so much?" Han Dongxing asked with a raised eyebrow.
Wang Haozhi smiled and sipped tea, and Su Tianqi on the side said: "Yuan Qing."
"Yuan Qing? Where have you heard of it?" Zhao Feiyan frowned slightly and muttered to herself. Han Dongxing looked at Su Tianqi with doubtful eyes.
Su Tianqi took a sip of tea and said slowly: "This person is not a disciple of the aristocratic family. He has only just established the foundation. It is normal that Brother Han has never heard of him."
Han Dongxing sighed again and said: "My little sister has advanced to the middle stage of foundation building a few days ago. Not only does she have a top-grade magic weapon, but she also has several low-grade and high-grade talismans. What can such a kid who has just established foundation do? use."
Wang Hao said at this time: "Brother Han, you don't know. This person is a sword cultivator. I changed my hand to a top-quality sword that seems to have spirituality. Su Yaze didn't even take a single turn under this person's sword." If he hadn't survived, if he hadn't held back at the time, it would have been possible to kill him on the spot."
Zhao Feiyan asked with surprise: "Are you serious at this time?"
"Old man Li saw it with his own eyes. It is said that Su Yaze provoked first, and Yuan Qing was forced to fight back." Wang Hao replied.
Han Dongxing raised his eyebrows slightly at this time: "Su Yaze has Xiao Feilai Peak next to him, and his cultivation is in the middle stage of foundation construction. He is actually not his enemy. It seems that this son is not to be underestimated. But how can he get it? Task?"
Su Tianqi gently shook the folding fan and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this? If I remember correctly, the deacon releasing the list is from the Zhao family. As long as Junior Sister Zhao sends a transmission note, won't this matter be solved?"
Zhao Feiyan looked thoughtful after hearing this. When Han Dongxing saw this, he immediately stood up and said respectfully: "Please also ask Junior Sister Zhao to help me. Junior Sister's kindness will be greatly rewarded by the Han family in the future!"
Zhao Feiyan chuckled and said, "Okay, if Senior Brother Han is willing to take the oath of inner demons, I will send a message to Zhao Heng."
Han Dongxing immediately made the oath as promised. Zhao Feiyan was very satisfied when she saw this. She took out a tawny talisman with a smile, put it to her mouth and whispered a few words. Then she made a seal and the talisman turned into a streak of fire and flew away.
Han Dongxing looked relieved, sat down and toasted the three of them with tea instead of wine. Putting down the tea cup, Wang Hao asked: "Brother Su, how much do you know about this beast tide?"
Su Tianqi's expression deepened and he whispered: "This beast tide is coming fiercely. It is said..."
Let's say that Yuan Qing rode his sword all the way to the Hall of Merit, put away his flying sword, straightened his clothes in front of the hall, and then walked in with his head held high.
