Jining sat down carefully. The old man in front of him looked like an ordinary person, but Jining knew that the old man was anything but ordinary. The old man glanced at Jining, then looked up into the distance, his eyes filled with endless vicissitudes of life.
"My little friend, do you know why I'm looking for you?" The old man looked back at Jining and said.
Then there was a broken blade in the old man's hand. He took out a white handkerchief and wiped it gently. His eyes when looking at the broken blade were so pious and full of sadness!
"That happened a very long time ago. If it weren't for the aura of the Hidden Cloud Sword on your body, I would have forgotten everything!" The old man sighed.
"Not long after I formed the Nascent Soul, as the senior brother of the Tianhe Sword Sect, I was young and frivolous. Although I was not one of the five saints of Kunyun, I never took the five saints in my eyes!" The old man slowly said said.
"Perhaps I was too confident, and in the end I made the Tianhe Sword Sect pay the price for me. At that time, someone discovered the entrance to a secret realm in Tanggu Mountain in Kunyun Continent. I was very satisfied and led a few junior brothers to rush there... "The old man said with guilt.
I learned from the old man that at that time he thought he was powerful and wanted to lead the Tianhe Sword Sect to rise again, but in the end it was because of him that the Tianhe Sword Sect became even weaker.
The secret realm is an ancient battlefield. Different from other secret realms, there was an earth-shattering battle with powerful spells. That battle turned the secret realm into a desolate place.
However, countless powerful men died tragically in that battle. Among these monks were human monks and foreign monks. Although they died, their powerful weapons were still there. Although most of them had been destroyed, some were still intact.
It's just that those powerful monks who died turned into countless evil ghosts, and the monks under the Nascent Soul were unable to resist this powerful evil spirit. So he entered the secret realm alone.
Not long after he entered the secret realm, he almost died in a dangerous place. Fortunately, a monk came to rescue him. This monk is Dongzhou monk Qu Tao, the master of Yunyin Spirit Sword.
Since there are dangers everywhere in the secret realm, the two went on a treasure hunt together, but one thing changed their fate. And this old man from the Tianhe Sword Sect has a special ability. He is innately able to sense the breath of powerful spiritual treasures.
So they later discovered a hidden place while exploring the secret realm. They found two extremely powerful spiritual treasures in this hidden place, and they felt that these two spiritual treasures were beyond ordinary spiritual treasures.
One of the spiritual treasures was even more powerful. The old man later found out that this spiritual treasure was the "Spiritual Plate to Control the Sky", which contained the souls of six ninth-level true dragons.
However, luck and misfortune depended on each other. After the two discussed it, the Heavenly Spirit Plate was given to Qu Tao, who had a higher level of cultivation, and he took another spiritual treasure, the Yuanci Light Sword. However, their acquisition of spiritual treasures was still discovered by others in the secret realm, and even more so, they were coveted by the monks of Xuantianmen, the most powerful sect in Kunyun Continent.
After that, they were chased by monks from various sects in the secret realm, and he accidentally inhaled countless evil spirits and lost consciousness. In the end, he was rescued by the elders of the Tianhe Sword Sect who came in later. In the end, he was imprisoned in this tomb land, and it took hundreds of years for him to slowly regain his sanity.
After Jining heard this, he had some understanding of what happened next. Although monk Qu Tao escaped from the secret realm, he was eventually destroyed by the powerful monks of Xuantianmen.
The old man looked at the void in front of him and sighed: "I didn't know what happened to Daoist Qu Daoyou until hundreds of years later, and the Tianhe Sword Sect also lost several elders in that catastrophe, leaving the Tianhe Sword Sect in a state of collapse!"
"I actually have nothing else to do. I just sensed the aura of the Hidden Cloud Spirit Sword, which reminded me of my old self, so I asked my friend to come here to listen to this gossip!" The old man continued.
Then he moved his hand and a spiritual weapon appeared and said: "Fellow Daoist Qu's last death was due to old age, and I can be regarded as the inheritor of Daoist Qu. We meet each other by fate, and this spiritual weapon is Give it to my little friend!"
Then the spiritual weapon in his hand slowly flew towards Jining, and Jining quickly caught it. Only then did I take a closer look at the spiritual weapon and found that it was shaped like a simple lamp.
"This green lampstand is given to me as a gift. It is not used as a tool for fighting. It is a tool to remove distracting thoughts during meditation. When I was old and lost my mind, my master spent all his energy refining this spiritual tool to get rid of my inner demons. . Now that I no longer need it, I will give it to my little friend!" The old man looked lovingly at the green lantern weapon in his hand.
Then he waved his hand for Jining to leave.
After Jining bowed to the old man and thanked him, he left the tomb of the Tianhe Sword Sect. Looking at the old man's lonely expression, I knew in my heart that he was repenting for the past, and that he was imprisoning himself in the tomb to atone for what happened back then.
Not long after returning to the residence, the sky was already glowing with a faint red light. Jining felt that the Tianhe Sword Sect had returned to its past tranquility. It seemed that the sudden change in the Sword Pool was over. So at sunrise, Jining packed up his things and said goodbye to Luo Fangchen, and asked him to say goodbye to the head of the Tianhe Sword Sect on his behalf.
After leaving Tianhe Sword Sect, Jining headed towards Fanyang City. During this trip, I received a lot of goods from the Tianhe Sword Sect. Not only did I get the Starfall Fluorite and the Ultimate Sword Intent, I also received the Qingdengtai spiritual weapon given to me by the senior master.
Jining knew that this thing was extraordinary, and it could help monks get rid of distracting thoughts while practicing. Therefore, when high-level monks break through bottlenecks, they can also prevent the invasion of inner demons, because he also learned from classics in the past that some high-level monks failed when they broke through bottlenecks and were invaded by inner demons, and some even failed due to the invasion of inner demons. The demon invaded and he lost his mind and became a demon who only knows how to kill.
A few months later, Jining returned to the cave he rented, but when he entered the valley, he felt something strange, which made him wary. He searched the valley carefully with his spiritual consciousness and found traces in several places in the valley. In the end, Jining found a few strange balls in several places where there were traces.
Seeing these balls, Jining's expression changed. He knew this strange ball magic weapon. This thing was a surveillance weapon. It could transmit the situation in the valley using the ball magic weapon.
It is somewhat similar to the original prohibition in the cave, but Jining knows that this thing is by no means original. It was installed by someone after he left recently.
After thinking of this, Jining's face changed slightly, and he no longer stayed in the cave and headed into the distance. Because of what happened last time, he knew that the cave he rented was not safe.
…
When Jining left, in an inn in Fanyang City, a middle-aged Nascent Soul monk had a gloomy face. If any monks from Kunyun Continent’s sect see him, they will definitely know him. He is Su Yi, an elder of Xuantian Sect and the father of Su Huan.
He has found out the cause of his son Su Huan's death in Kunwu's secret realm, and the monk named Jining is the culprit. Therefore, after he heard that this person appeared in Fanyang City, he sneaked over from Xuantian Sect.
He must kill this son during this trip, otherwise it will be difficult to satisfy the hatred in his heart. However, he waited for a while at Jining's temporary residence and still did not see the boy appear. He guessed that the boy would be going out for a while, so he placed several surveillance orbs around his residence.
What made him depressed was that he returned to a certain valley within a few days of setting up the magic weapon. Because the time was too short, the traces of the magical artifact had not been completely eliminated, so it was discovered by this person. He knew that if a few more days passed, the traces he left would disappear without a trace.
