When Jian arrived at Zuowang Peak, he saw a man sitting on the boulder on the peak from a distance, facing the rising sun in the east, breathing in the sun's fire. With a breath, his figure became blurred, and with a breath, his figure became clear again.
Senior Kunlun was indeed extraordinary, he could absorb the sun's fire with his body, and Wei Shiqi admired him endlessly. He watched for a moment, and suddenly he felt the Zangxue Sword shake and be pulled down by an invisible force. Knowing something was wrong, he pressed the sword light and landed on Zuowang Peak, waiting for his senior's instructions.
After the time of drinking tea, the man stopped his exercises, his face was as red as fire, but he could not conceal his dejection. He turned back to look at Wei Shiqi and asked in a dry voice: "Whose disciple are you? How did you get in?"
Wei Shiqi bowed and saluted, reported the origins of his mastership, and said that he was practicing in the Field of Illusion under the order of his master. He felt that he had no progress, so he flew to the Demon Suppression Tower with his sword on a whim, and ended up here for some unknown reason.
"Are you Yue Shuo's disciple?" The man was thoughtful, paused, and asked, "Yue Shuo has been here for many years and has never left. Why did you become his disciple?"
"To be honest, senior, it is indeed Senior Sister Ruan who accepted the apprentice on behalf of my father. The boy and the master have never met."
The man nodded and said, "It turns out that little girl Ruan Jing was the one who caused the trouble..."
Listening to his tone, Wei Shiqi seemed to be quite familiar with Ruan Jing, so he said cautiously: "May I ask the senior's name, how do you call him?"
"My surname is Li, and I, Ziyang, Xing Yue and Yue Shuo, are all my nephews."
"Disciple pays homage to my uncle!" Wei Shiqi saluted again and saw his elders.
The surname Li was rare, and he felt as if he had heard it somewhere. He thought about it for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. He suddenly remembered that he was trapped in the mountainside of Chixia Valley. After practicing, he chatted with Yu Yao and said, When talking about Gui Men Yuan, Yu Yao occasionally mentioned that there was a senior Li Hui of the Kunlun Sect who was about to expire and had no hope of extending his life, so he threw himself into Gui Men Yuan to gain a chance of life. As a result, he not only returned safely, but also regained his youth and became a child again. He practiced "Sword Transformation". With the magical power of "Wei Si", he guarded Kunlun with one person and one sword for thirty years, and then he broke through the world and ascended to the sky without being traced.
Wei Shiqi asked tentatively: "Uncle Master, is that Senior Li who practiced 'turning swords into silk' under the Ghost Gate Abyss?"
"Have you heard of me?"
Wei Shiqi said: "I heard some rumors by chance, saying that my great-uncle found an opportunity in the Ghost Gate Abyss, rejuvenated his youth, and greatly increased his cultivation level. Later, he broke through the world and ascended to the throne, achieving greatness."
"Breaking the world and ascending is easier said than done. Hey, if you really break the world and ascend, how can you stay here?" Li Hui didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he changed the subject, "Li Han and Ande Yin kept chasing after them. How did you offend them?"
Wei Shiqi said a few words about his grudge against Li Han. He was just hurting his son. However, he was angry and wanted to capture him to vent his hatred. Li Hui didn't take it to heart after hearing this and asked casually: "Where is your guide?" ?Why did I leave you alone and wander around?"
"Guide?" Wei Shiqi guessed that the "guide" in Li Hui's mouth was the Qingming who led him into the Wilderness of Illusion. He shook his head and said, "He has something important to do and will leave for a while, leaving me to stay in the Wilderness of Illusion - —Dare I ask my uncle, where is this place?"
Li Hui said: "This is the Demon Suppression Tower that connects fiction and reality. You are in the Demon Suppression Tower. You shouldn't rush in rashly. It's easy to get in, but it's extremely difficult to get out."
Wei Shiqi's heart trembled, and he bent down and broke a grass stem. Unlike the Wilderness of Illusion, the grass stem did not recover, but it was also different from the real world. After a moment, the grass stem melted into the void and gradually turned into a blur of emptiness. The shadow disappeared, but the real touch remained between the fingers.
"Is there no other way?"
Li Hui shook his head and said: "You can't do it. Even if you are an old man, you can only be trapped in the Demon Suppression Tower. There are only three people in the world who can travel back and forth to the Wilderness of Illusion at will. I have Ziyang, Qingming, and Ruan Qing. I will get one of them." Only by carrying you can you return to the wilderness of illusion."
Wei Shiqi pointed to the top of his head and asked: "The Demon Suppression Tower connects illusion and reality. Can't we return directly to the real world from here?"
A smile appeared on Li Hui's face, and he praised: "You think very quickly - yes, there are two ways to leave the Demon Suppression Tower, break the void from the Field of Illusion, or simply go up and break into the Demon Refining Tower. Pond, take your body by force, but your body is not in the Demon Refining Pond, and you don’t have a body to store your soul. If the water in the Demon Refining Pond washes away your soul, it will be a dead end."
Wei Shiqi recalled that when he looked at the Demon Suppression Tower from a distance in the Wilderness of Illusion, it was like a giant pillar holding up the sky. Only the base of the tower was visible, but not the spire. The base of the Demon Suppression Tower was rooted in the Wilderness of Illusion, and its spire poked out of the Sun Viewing Cliff. In the meantime, there is a demon refining pool to isolate him. In the demon refining pool, the body of the demon clan is submerged. Under the demon refining pool is the "Kunlun Mountain" that he is in, which is both real and illusory.
"Why did my uncle stay in the Demon Suppressing Tower?"
Li Hui smiled bitterly and said: "My body is broken and my soul has nothing to rely on. If I don't enter the Demon Suppression Tower, I will end up in ashes. Trying to find the lesser of two evils is a last resort."
Wei Shiqi's heart skipped a beat. Li Hui had not denied that he had found a great opportunity under the abyss of ghosts, "returning to youth and greatly increasing his cultivation." In this way, he failed to ascend, which led to "physical collapse." Bad, the soul has no attachment." It turned out that "breaking the world and ascending" was not a nonsense rumor - thinking of this, his heart became hot.
However, Wei Shiqi did not rush to inquire about the details of the world-breaking ascension. Although Li Hui was his master's uncle, after all, the ascension failed. Yin and Yang are separated, and it is taboo to communicate with each other. He thought for a while and changed the topic to an irrelevant topic. , asked: "Uncle Master, is Master Yue in this Demon Suppression Tower?"
Li Hui hesitated for a moment and said: "I met him several times many years ago, but there was no news after that. He lives in seclusion at Liushi Peak. If you want to see him, just go to Liushi Peak... Ruan Qing is also there, Be smart, and maybe for your master's sake, she will take you back to the Wilderness of Illusion."
Wei Shiqi thanked his uncle for his advice and said goodbye, intending to go to Liushi Peak to meet his mentor.
Li Hui waved his hand and sighed in a low voice: "Go, if you have a chance to go out, don't come back again..."
