Yuan Zhongyi hesitated and asked: "The real person is a swordsman. Dare I ask...but he is from the Baiyang sect?"
"no."
"Is that from Jiulong Palace?"
"No, I... have no sect and am self-taught."
Yuan Zhongyi took a deep breath and said excitedly: "I have been practicing swordsmanship since I was a child, and I have gained a little reputation in the world, and I am called a swordsman. But I only practice the swordsmanship of ordinary martial artists, and I can only practice in ordinary circles. We can eradicate evil in the middle, but we cannot slay demons and subjugate demons. Nowadays, there are droughts in the north and floods in the south, famines are everywhere, and demons are reborn. I want to use my sword to sweep away the evil and restore the world to a peaceful world, but it is a pity that I am powerless! I have been to Baiyang Mountain to become a disciple. , they thought I was too old and refused to take me in. Later I went to Jiulong Mountain and searched for half a year in the vast mountains but could not find Jiulong Palace. I was almost eaten alive by a strange beast that swallowed clouds and mist. .”
He knelt down with a "pop" sound and said with great sincerity: "Please accept me as a disciple and teach me swordsmanship. If I can fulfill my wish of flying to the sky with a sword, I am willing to pay any price! I beg the immortal for mercy!" After that! , he put one hand on the ground, bent down, and kowtowed hard with "bang bang bang".
Facing Yuan Zhongyi's sincere plea, Liang Xingyang raised his hand up, and a strong invisible force forced him to stand up.
"Based on your behavior, it's not impossible to teach you swordsmanship. It's just that my Taoism is authentic Xuanmen. There is a threshold at the beginning of practice. It is difficult to say it is difficult or easy to say it. It is not easy for others to cross it. "
When Yuan Zhongyi heard that there was a way, he quickly said: "If you have any requests, just ask me! No matter how difficult or dangerous it is, even if it means going up a mountain of swords or a frying pan, I will definitely get it done!"
"It's not that exaggerated, it's not that exaggerated. It's not that I want to test you, it's your own obstacle." Liang Xingyang did not continue, but turned to the little lambs, "These lambs were kidnapped from various states and counties by the demons of the Golden Lantern Sect. For the children who come, let’s rehabilitate them first and find a way to send them back to their respective homes.”
He picked up the cinnabar bag on the ground, dusted the red cinnabar powder with his fingers, and flicked it onto the lambs one by one.
The wool was stained with cinnabar, sizzling, smoking, and burning. When the flames burned out, the lambs turned into seven or eight-year-old children.
A total of seventeen boys and eighteen girls were all so frightened that they could no longer even cry. Their heads and faces were covered with black ash. They squatted or stood stupidly, asking questions without knowing the answer.
Yuan Zhongyi asked Liu Yongnuo to go down the mountain and ride a fast horse back to call for people, and hired twenty carriages to transport the children back to Quyang City first.
He asked Liang Xingyang: "Does the Taoist priest ride a horse or a car?"
"You don't need to worry about me. I will go to Quyang City to find you in three days. Then we will see if you can enter the dangerous path of my Xuanmen!"
After Liang Xingyang finished speaking, he made a seal with his hands and spurted out a breath of true energy. The white sword light that had been hidden in his body reappeared, surged up and engulfed his whole body. With a "whoosh", it rose up from the ground and penetrated into the night sky, disappearing in an instant. .
Yuan Zhongyi looked envious and excited at the same time. He clenched his left fist tightly and secretly swore: In three days, he must pass the trial, worship the immortal master, and learn the ability to fly with a sword!
Liang Xingyang flew away from Longyan Mountain with his sword, flew more than three hundred miles southwest, and came to a more remote barren mountain. There was an abandoned mountain temple on the mountain ridge. He came to Quzhou that day and settled here.
The temple was dark. Liang Xingyang took out the eight-treasure lotus lantern and lit it with a flick of his fingers.
This lamp can respond to your heart. If you want it to be brighter, it will burn violently and shine brightly. If you want it to be dim, the flame will immediately weaken when you think about it.
Liang Xingyang brushed off the dust on the altar table, sat cross-legged on it, and looked at the golden lamp intently.
The eight-jeweled lotus lantern is made of gold, eight inches and eight minutes high, and is inlaid with rubies, obsidian, emeralds, white diamonds, topaz, sunstones, moonstones, and a magic eye stone.
Liang Xingyang has seen the previous seven types on other lamps, but this is the first time he has seen this magic eye stone. When he was at home in Liangzhou, he once read in a book that it is said that there are three eyes in the sky, and there is a vertical eye in the middle of the forehead. The god lived a thousand years. After his death, this eye fell to the human world and became a god's eye stone. It was used by shamans to make magic. It can observe time and space. Flying flowers and fallen leaves within a radius of thousands of miles are like observing patterns on the palm of your hand. All major and minor events can be observed within a hundred years. Know everything.
There is also a magic eye stone, which comes from a three-eyed monster snake hidden deep underground, named Xuanqiu. After death, the body rots, and only the eye is left in the soil and turns into a gem. It also has effects similar to the magic eye stone, and There is another kind of demagoguery.
The book says that the Magic Eye Stone is very similar to the God's Eye Stone. When viewed through light, the pupil in the middle of the God's Eye Stone is vertical, with a faint golden glow emanating from the outside. The pupil inside the Magic Eye Stone is horizontally long. The outside is wrapped in a faint red light.
He carefully observed the gem on the lamp. There was a circle of red light outside the pupils, and it was restrained and not divergent. It was indeed the magic eye stone. After looking at it for a long time, it actually made him feel in a trance, as if he was about to fall into something. Go into a fantasy world.
He placed the lamp in front of him, crossed his legs and performed kung fu, closed his eyes and performed martial arts, condensing his soul, using his mind externally, keeping one mind inside and one mind wandering outside, injecting the true essence into the lamp to explore its mysteries.
Time passed slowly, and the barren mountains and ridges were completely silent, except for the flames on the golden lamps burning quietly.
Suddenly, the mountain god statue sitting against the wall suddenly moved. The wooden and clay statue opened its eyes silently, staring at the boy on the table with two strange eyes with peeling paint, and then looked at it again. The golden lantern slowly raised its stiff arms and quietly stretched out from Liang Xingyang's head. His ten fingers quickly stretched out, and sharp ghost claws sprouted from the fingertips. His neck also continued to grow in silence, stretching to one meter. How long, the head quickly became bigger than a wheel like an inflated balloon, and the mouth opened, revealing a mouth full of sharp fangs...
Liang Xingyang has stayed in this mountain temple before, and no supernatural events happened. This time, because of the golden lamp, the mountain god who had been sleeping for a long time was awakened!
There are two original eight-treasure lotus lanterns in the Golden Lantern Sect. This is the third newly cast one. Before the Divine Lantern Festival, masters from various places around Liangzhou transferred all the wishes of believers they collected to this lantern. There are already nearly a million in them.
The power of wish is something that all ghosts and gods regard as vital to their lives. Generally speaking, ghosts and gods need incense. The incense is only superficial and carries the power of wish.
Human beings rely on the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit in their bodies to cultivate immortality, while Yin spirits rely on the will power of all living beings to cultivate immortality. The more power they have, the stronger they will become.
A golden lamp carrying a large amount of wish power was placed on the altar, and next to it was a boy with a pure yang celestial body. The two came together to form an offering to the mountain god. The mountain god, who had been sleeping for many years, was awakened by the "delicious food" and opened his mouth. As soon as I saw it, I subconsciously wanted to drool. Regardless of the reason, I just wanted to "enjoy" it with all my teeth!
