The long-lasting Four Red Sun Formation began to slowly dissipate, and the vibrant spring breath of Qingyang Dao also filtered in, purifying the blood and scorch in the formation.
Everything is finally over.
"Finally..."
Xu Yue raised his head and looked at the sky that was exposed a little bit. He felt that the sunlight was a bit dazzling, and an indescribable feeling of fatigue surged into his body and mind like a tide.
But he didn't rest. He forced his will and turned to look at Lu Jiuzhou.
At this time, the eyes of the sword immortal in white were still staring at the place where the black dragon sword collapsed.
For a swordsman like him, the sword is not only a weapon, but also a trustworthy partner and friend. The death of every sword represents the departure of a good friend.
"Lao Lu, Duan Mutian..." Xu Yue thought about it and asked hesitantly.
"Well, he was the one who buried the "forbidden" power across the forbidden area in the black dragon sword early, and set up a restriction to severely injure Zuo Qingxuan at the critical moment. "Lu Jiuzhou lowered his head slightly and began to tell everything he knew.
During the civil strife in Tianqing Sea a hundred years ago, in the rebel camp against Xu Yue, Duan Mutian and Zuo Qingxuan actually had no affiliation, and there was more cooperation between them.
The main reason for this is that Zuo Qingxuan has never been willing to come to the stage openly and oppose Xu Yue like Duan Mutian, Zong Qing and others. Instead, he has been hiding behind the scenes and doing things that outsiders don't know.
For example, taking away Gu Xingzhou and Mo Dao, deceiving Yu Qilin Yu Heng, persuading Three Thousand Sword Sects, etc...
He seems to have been unwilling to expose his position in the eyes of the world or Xu Yue.
This approach not only made Duan Mutian look down upon, but also made him wary.
Zuo Qingxuan, why are you so cautious?
Does he have any secrets that must never be discovered?
This kind of doubt reached its peak until the Battle of Emperor Mountain five years ago.
At that time, Mo Chen and others from Tianmo Ridge had become demons. All the sects put aside their past grudges and joined forces to surround and kill the disciples of Tianmo Ridge.
In a battle, in order to prove that he was no worse than Xu Yue, Duan Mutian actually used the black dragon sword to actively contact the evil spirit of the demon. His whole body then became extremely violent. If he took one step further, he would be close to becoming a demon.
At this time, Zuo Qingxuan's approach was quite intriguing.
He seemed to be extremely interested in the demon's evil spirit. After actively helping Duan Mutian detoxify, he kept looking at the black dragon sword that could "lock" the evil spirit, and he was still testing Duan Mutian.
This is not the reaction that the usually calm and secretive scholar in Tsing Yi should have!
Therefore, at that time, Duan Mutian followed the trend and while praising the purification technique of Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom, he handed the Black Dragon Sword to Zuo Qingxuan by request and asked him to help purify the sword body.
It was also at this time that he made a conscious effort to engrave the sealing technique into the sword for emergencies.
In the following five years, Zuo Qingxuan continued to study and use the Black Dragon Sword, which unknowingly infected him with the sword energy of the Black Dragon Sword, and also sowed the seeds of the ban in his body, and Duan Mutian never Even if there was an opportunity to mention the urge to return the sword, the other party would shirk it by saying that the purification had not yet been completed.
This made Duan Mutian even more suspicious that something was wrong with Zuo Qingxuan!
What really convinced him of this was the crystals scattered around the fake past monuments in the underground square of Beihai Culvert!
When Duan Mutian first saw the crystal, he felt it was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
It was not until later, during the battle with Xu Yue, that he suddenly remembered that this crystal was the "Contact Crystal" used by Zuo Qingxuan in the Sea of Clear Sky a hundred years ago!
On the eve of the incident, Duan Mutian went to Zuo Qingxuan's residence to discuss some specific details, but unexpectedly saw him using this crystal to activate some kind of power. After asking casually, Zuo Qingxuan replied that this crystal was used to strengthen his body. Regarding the connection with the clone, Duan Mutian nodded, without thinking too much, and continued to talk about other things, and this thing was gradually buried deep in his memory.
But who would have thought that when we meet again, it is already the time of life and death!
After discovering this shocking secret, the murder in the Immortal Domain was equated with the conspiracy of the Qingyuan Immortal Kingdom. Duan Mutian also thought about stopping the fighting immediately and informing Xu Yue, but he keenly felt that there In the culvert full of crystals, every move I make is completely monitored. It seems that there are countless pairs of eyes and countless perceptions, looking at me through those crystals. Only I can speak or transmit sounds. The person behind the crystal will definitely be able to Be aware of it the first time!
That's why he said those two unclear words at the last moment of his death, which also made Xu Yue extremely confused.
"Xu Yue, although I have regrets about today's battle, I am still willing to do so... Moreover, it is too early to judge success or failure... Maybe I, Duan Mutian, won this round?"
"Hehe... one day, you will be grateful to me..."
All the fog has been lifted.
"It's so..."
Xu Yue whispered, recalling Duan Mutian's natural temperament, confidence and perseverance in his mind, and slowly clenched his fists,
The Taoist disciple of Mutian Shenzong is indeed extremely powerful. Whether as a former brother or later an enemy, he is an admirable and feared existence. It can be said that he is Xu Yue's most powerful comrade in his life. Super rival!
That's right, even Zuo Qingxuan's pressure on Xu Yue is far less powerful than Duan Mutian's. The former is more like an assassin in a dark corner, making you hard to guard against, while the latter is on the frontal battlefield, setting up a formation and defeating you openly. !
"What about you? How do you know this?" After a moment, Xu Yue recovered his thoughts and asked Lu Jiuzhou.
"The sword told me."
Lu Jiuzhou chuckled and said: "I followed Zuo Qingxuan into a mysterious cave. During the battle with him, I accidentally came into contact with the Black Dragon Sword. I heard the sound of the sword and read the will of Mu Tian remaining in it. That’s why I decided to deliberately defeat and die, hide in the sword, and complete this plan with him.”
After Lu Jiuzhou finished speaking, there was no sound in the scene, and the air became silent for a few breaths.
"Can't... I just die?!" Until Xu Yue's sad voice sounded again.
That's right.
Just as Xu Yue sensed before, the Lu Jiuzhou in front of him is nothing more than a rootless remnant soul. The real old Lu is still dead. He died a few months ago. No one knows An inexplicable place.
Listening to Xu Yue's question, Lu Jiuzhou smiled indifferently and said slowly: "Of course I can't. Although I still had some strength that day, you have also seen today that Zuo Qingxuan is in this state, and you can still fight in a group attack. It was so difficult, and I was alone, how could I win? Thinking back to a long time ago, someone warned me about the horror of Yuanshen's art, so in that battle that day, I expected that no matter whether I ran or fought, I would probably die in the end... ...Instead of doing this, it is better to save the last bit of strength and use it at the critical moment, just like today, to help you escape from the enlightenment of the past monument and wield this last sword."
As the Four Red Sun Formation slowly peeled off, more and more sunlight shone on his warm face, making his soul become weaker and weaker. Looking from a distance, there was a sense of peerless poignancy. .
"Besides... we monks should strive for self-improvement. Our mountains and rivers are in danger, and our homeland is in trouble. How can we strive for righteousness without sacrificing our lives? Duan Mutian is like this, Meng Jin is like this, Shen Shuzi is like this, Xiao Hu is like this, and I, Lu Jiuzhou, should be like this."
"what about me!!"
The Four Red Sun Formation completely dissipated, and a crying voice suddenly appeared at the entrance of the formation.
Her long blue hair was flying in the mountain wind, and her long blue dress was like a dream. Lan Qing came, dragging her weak and injured body, and climbed the holy mountain at some point. At this time, her face was full of tears. Looking at the sword soul that is extremely familiar and missed.
"You sacrifice your life and death for justice, but have you ever thought about what I will do on my own from now on!"
Hearing the collapsed cry, Lu Jiuzhou was startled. Then he neither felt sad nor cried. Instead, he flashed in front of Lan Qing and showed an extremely gentle smile.
"Qing'er...it's so nice to see you at this last moment."
Hearing that loving voice, all the blame and resentment in Lan Qing's heart disappeared. She cried and moved forward, wanting to hug the other person tightly, but she couldn't get it through her soul.
"You disappeared suddenly, without any news... I have been looking for you for a long time, and now I finally found you... I didn't expect... we would be separated again... ugh..."
Lan Qing's pear blossoms were wet with rain, and she was crying and complaining. At this moment, she was exactly the same as the little girl who loved to cry, which was pitiful.
"Qing'er..."
Lu Jiuzhou's body was getting weaker and weaker at this time, almost transparent. Finally, with an apologetic expression, he came to the sobbing Lan Qing, and concentrated all the remaining strength in his body into his hands, He gently touched Lan Qing's cheek.
This time, the illusory palm finally took on some form, wiping away the blue crystal tears. The cold touch of the remnant soul will remain in Lan Qing's heart forever.
"You and I know each other and fall in love because we share the same goals and ideals. The private relationship between children is indeed intoxicating, but it is related to the rise and fall of the fairyland. Qing'er, as a guardian clan, you should be more aware than me. That's right...and I also believe that if one day you face such a choice, you will be even better than me."
Lu Jiuzhou's gentle and handsome face showed a carefree look. Finally, he lovingly rubbed Lan Qing, who was crying, and then turned his head to look at the silent Xu Yue and the tearful Xia Jingxian.
"Xu Yue, Jingxian, and them...the future is left to everyone."
The words are scattered in the wind, and the white clothes are floating like immortals.
With his fierce sword intent, the casual cultivator who rose up in the battle of Qifeng, Lu Lang, who ranks second on the Immortal Ranking, will become a star from now on, forever guarding the land of the Immortal Realm.
