Chapter 660: The inhumane Shushan
"What the Evil Sword Immortal left behind was only a transformed body. I'm afraid that after knowing the Three Emperors' artifacts, the real body has already escaped."
"Besides, we are not from Shushan. 'Raising aliens and endangering the world', this is your evaluation of us, isn't it?"
The weight of Jingtian's words, to Chang Hao, far exceeds what he has to bear now.
"It's all my fault, everything is my fault!"
Chang Hao held his head high, unwilling to lower it even if his veins were bulging, and now he collided heavily with the green jade steps.
The green color was stained with red.
Jingtian had removed the pressure on Chang Hao, and he didn't stand up.
It seemed that he was going to kneel until the end of the world.
Until the light.
Liquid golden light gushed out from the cracks of the cracked jade bricks, and the star maps that were once corroded by blood and rust now flowed into scriptures all over the sky.
The ground veins trembled like a Buddhist chant, and the seventy-two peaks lit up with seal characters at the same time.
The broken gold swam into the gap between the bricks, and the black fog on the black iron pillar screamed and curled up.
The mountain protection formation fell from the clouds, no longer fine gold patterns, but scales condensed from thousands of hectares of waves.
The source of the blood color that filled the sky with purple fire was a clear air emerging from the place where the Demon Locking Tower collapsed before.
The figure of an old man in green clothes appeared from it.
"The [Demon Suppression Sword] really disappeared."
This person was Qingwei. After confirming that what the Evil Sword Immortal said was correct, he flew in front of Chang Hao.
Perhaps it was because the Evil Sword Immortal used Qingwei's face before, Chang Hao subconsciously raised his arm, turned back, and had to get up.
"Changqing is still alive, and the evil spirit deliberately spared his life."
Zixuan 'happened' to wake up at this time, "Is what the Taoist said true?"
"That's great!" Chang Hao cried with joy.
"Of course it's true." Jingtian said, "The Evil Sword Immortal didn't kill him just to waste our energy and make us unable to find the Three Emperors' Artifacts."
"What happened to Changqing?" Zixuan didn't dare to look directly into Jingtian's eyes. She really didn't love Xu Changqing anymore, but she also hoped that Xu Changqing was safe and sound.
"The soul and body are separated," Qingwei's face sank, "Changqing's body was suppressed by the evil sword, and only a trace of life remained. Changqing's soul lost the traction of the flesh and fell into the ghost world."
"My friend, can you give a detailed introduction to the Three Emperors' Artifacts?"
"The aura engraved on the back of Changqing's hand is indeed not from the human world."
"Oh, it seems that he has passed some of the tests in the Xuanguang Illusion. No wonder the Evil Sword Immortal is so anxious to kill him." Jingtian suddenly realized.
Whether it is the TV line or the game line, the Evil Sword Immortal, who has the memories of the Five Elders of Shushan and is equivalent to their evil incarnation, also has the same love for Xu Changqing.
In the game line, the Evil Sword Immortal intends to kill the Five Elders directly and replace them.
As a result, he only killed Qingwei, and accidentally found Xuejian as a reward. After killing him, he stole Xuejian's still alive body and wanted to merge with her.
He didn't do anything to Xu Changqing at all.
The TV line even taught him the truth of life with Xu Changqing. In the end, he seemed to swallow Xu Changqing, but he just used his body as a prison to put Xu Changqing in solitary confinement.
"Xuanguang, yes, Uncle Changqing stayed in Xuanguang Hall yesterday." Mingqing reacted.
"Xuanguang Hall? Let me go to break the formation!" Chang Hao said.
Shushan disciples are not unfamiliar with formations.
The protective barrier covering the Shushan where they live is a large formation.
The Thirty-Six Heavenly Sword Formation, a strange formation that can only be unfolded by multiple people flying swords, is also the daily homework of Shushan disciples.
Jingtian shook his head, "You can't. According to the rules of your founder Taiqing, if you are not the right person, you need to pass the test of the Seven Stars Demon Subduing Formation to obtain the Three Emperors' Artifacts."
"This is the intention of the Evil Sword Immortal. If you want to obtain the Three Emperors' Artifacts, you must rescue Xu Changqing. But if you want to rescue Xu Changqing, you need to go back to Fengdu and enter the ghost world, but that will involve our energy and give him more time."
"Seven Stars Demon Subduing Formation, me?" Chang Hao lost confidence in an instant.
The seven stars are the Big Dipper, namely Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang.
Xuanguang Hall was formerly known as Tianxuan Hall.
The Seven Stars Demon Subduing Formation uses seven halls including Xuanguang Hall to draw the power of the Big Dipper. Even the head of the sect cannot deploy it alone, and the permission of the star god is required.
"But the Evil Sword Immortal miscalculated." Jingtian said, "Now there are four people on Shushan who are the right people."
"Four? From what you mean, it means you four?" Another old man appeared.
He is Cang Gu, the most knowledgeable of the five elders of Shushan, proficient in all immortal arts, and has eliminated his own desire for power through the [Purity Method]. His strength is second only to Qingwei's elders.
In the original world line, after Qingwei died, he became the head of the sect.
And when he was on the verge of death, he abolished the sect rule that lay disciples could not serve as the head of the sect, and let Xu Changqing, who he thought could revive Shushan, take over.
If Xu Changqing had not been unable to accept the stone tablet in the ground veins for a while, and directly passed the head of the sect to Chang Hao, an unreliable guy, and ascended, maybe Shushan could really revive.
Cang Gu now has three remaining elders who have recovered. Because they no longer need to support the Demon Locking Tower, they can also hear the movements of the outside world, and they can no longer sense or even spread throughout the [Wuji Pavilion] as before.
"I suggest you change your tone." Jingtian said.
"A Miao girl, a monster, and a fairy beast, can one of them come out?" Cang Gu shook his head. He thought Jingtian, Longkui, and Xuejian were qualified, but he still had doubts about the identity of the remaining one.
After Jingtian and the other three spirits merged into one body, the spiritual power that mutually restrained each other was expanding and leaking all the time, and their natural spiritual bones could not be concealed at all.
After getting the [Earth Spirit Pearl], Xuejian has gradually excavated the essence of the [Sacred Tree].
The re-transformed Longkui gradually revealed the holy appearance hidden by her ghostly aura.
In fact, Zixuan has also regained the spiritual power of the Mother Earth.
It was just because of personal prejudice that Canggu subconsciously ignored it.
"Junior brother, take the six to Xuanguang Hall." Qingwei said, he did not have such prejudice.
Although the successive heads of the sect could communicate with the first-generation heads who had become immortals in the Three Emperors Hall when they succeeded, and understand the secret of the [Heaven Hearing and Earth Seeing] method that only the previous heads of the sect could understand, he could not even meet the minimum conditions.
But just now, he saw the inscription left by the Taoist Taiqing.
[Shushan is hollow like a gourd, the Demon Locking Tower is like the handle of the gourd, and the inner Shushan is the belly of the gourd, connected from top to bottom and integrated]
[The five spiritual veins are like the skin of a gourd, isolating the human and demon worlds, so that humans and demons cannot offend each other. The Shushan School is like the pivot of the gourd, balancing yin and yang, reconciling humans and demons, and communicating with all things, so that the human world can be settled]
[If the demons in the inner Shushan grow, the demons will escape outside or disturb the human world. Shushan will hold the sword to defend the way, subdue the demons into the Demon Locking Tower, eliminate the inferior and retain the superior, and return to the inner Shushan, and the cycle will continue endlessly]
[If Shushan is weak and cannot defeat the demons, there are still the two realms of gods and immortals for help. If the demon world is weak and cannot defeat Shushan, then the yin and yang will be unbalanced, the world will be destroyed, and Shushan will collapse, which is out of control. Although humans have always been weak and demons have been strong since the beginning of the world, one should always worry about the world, be prepared for danger in times of peace, and achieve the unity of man and nature]
Now he doesn't even discriminate against demons, let alone Zixuan, an alien race, and Huaying, a fairy beast.
"Six——" Cang Gu panted. He wanted to say that there was a monster among the six, but under Qingwei's gaze, he had to lead the way, "Come on."
The stone path to Xuanguang Palace winds eastward from the remains of the Demon-Suppressing Tower.
"It's so beautiful." Xuejian couldn't help but sigh.
After walking to the second half of Xuanguang Palace, the green jade bricks turned into ordinary bluestone bricks.
But the cracks in the blue bricks were embedded with stardust, and every step spread out a faint blue ripple.
The closer to the top of the mountain, the heavier the spiritual mist.
After a long time, the star map carved into the rock wall exudes silver light, as if it is going to entangle the clothes of passers-by.
Compared with it, Penglai is like a country town compared to a royal courtyard.
She finally understood what Jingtian said by chance before, that it is not without benefits for Shushan to be a dog for the God Realm.
When walking past the meteorite boundary monument engraved with the words [Tianxuan], several people suddenly felt a weight around them.
"The veins here coincide with the trajectory of the Tianxuan star," Canggu said. "If the Beidou Demon Subduing Formation is activated, you need to use the flickering of the second star of the Beidou as a guide to get out. I suggest you wait a little longer."
"Why wait until night? We won't fail. A Tian is right." Xue Jian stepped forward confidently in the starlight.
Huaying made a face at Canggu and squeaked twice.
"King Jingjing, I also believe in the boss." The little monkey followed.
"You——" Canggu waved his sleeves and left.
The few people who turned their backs to him disappeared in the silver starlight.
No mistakes in one song, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!
After passing through the starlight, a luxurious palace standing on the sea of clouds finally appeared.
The seven-edged black crystal palace base pierced the sea of clouds, and each edge precisely corresponded to the trend of the tail of the Beidou Tianxuan star.
The body of the hall is made of meteorite iron mixed with Kunlun cold jade, and the blue-gray surface is floating with vortexes formed by star sand.
The dome of the main hall is in the shape of an inverted bucket, and 36,000 pieces of ice glazed tiles are inlaid into the Hun Tian star map, except for the Tianxuan position, which is expected to be filled with the actual starlight of Tianxuan Star.
A two-meter-high [Xuan Guang] plaque hangs on the main gate, emitting circles of green light.
The eaves are not ordinary copper bells that are blown by the wind, and the star fragments fall.
"This is too beautiful." Xuejian has forgotten how many times she has said it is too beautiful.
"The materials of this hall are more precious than the flying swords of most disciples," Jingtian said speechlessly, "Have they never thought of dismantling and reinstalling it?"
Even from the perspective of Fei Peng, the first god general, he couldn't help but sigh that Shushan is simply inhumane.
It seems that Taiqing's practice of the Nine-Turn Golden Pill to become an immortal and being taken in by the Emperor of Heaven is of extraordinary value.
He suspected that the material of the Seven-Star Panlong Pillar came from this after the Five Spirits Formation of the Locking Demon Tower was broken again.
After entering the hall, he confirmed this idea.
Twelve Panlong Pillars with natural patterns like the Milky Way vortex supported the entire Xuanguang Hall.
This made Zixuan's sacrifice even more funny.
Other people's floor tiles are all immortal materials, why do you, a love-brained descendant of Nuwa, need to sacrifice yourself.
"Maybe it can't be demolished?" Zixuan said, "Taiqing, who holds the [Demon-Suppressing Sword] and spent seventy-seventy-four days to form the Nine-Turn Golden Pill to become an immortal body, is the head of the Xianjian Sect. Although the Shushan Xianjian Sect mainly inherited the Taoist tradition of the Xianjian Sect, now it can't even find an orthodox disciple who practices Qi and forms a pill."
"Oh, yes, this way of cultivation is an unorthodox way, it's too easy to become an immortal!"
There was a little resentment in her words.
In the past, she believed in the direct inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven and the gold content of Taiqing, so she sent Xu Changqing, who was still an infant, to Shushan.
When I met the five elders of Shushan later, I was too autistic to see their depth.
As a result, I saw today that with this level, they can only be considered half-immortal.
This is after practicing the forbidden technique [Purity Method].
"The Shushan Immortal Sword Sect has inherited so many immortal skills and treasures, and it is unique to be able to get to this level of immortal materials and artifacts." Jingtian sighed, "I'm afraid it can be compared with Qionghua."
Qionghua is also a direct descendant of the God Realm, and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman is their ancestor.
The practice method is also enough to become an immortal.
Even in Xuanxiao's generation, he gathered three disciples with the potential to become immortals, Xuanxiao, Yuntianqing, and Suyu, and two magic swords that could be used for them to cultivate and become immortals - [Wangshu] and [Xihe].
But he had to take the crooked path of cultivation, wanting to ascend with his sect and take all the benefits in the world.
Jiutian Xuannu is only one of the three great Xuannu in the God Realm, not Fuxi.
She was able to leave roots for Qionghua within her authority, and had the patience to explain it many times, which was already a kindness of her as the ancestor.
"How do we enter the illusion?" Xuejian tried to get back to the point.
"It's very simple." Jingtian flashed and appeared in the missing part of the dome star map - the location of Tianxuan Star, "Close your eyes and concentrate, visualize the star map above your head, and let [starlight] enter your body."
This starlight is not real starlight, but the entrance to the illusion.
"Ah, so many stars -" Xuejian looked up and was about to say it was too difficult, but her eyes were distracted, and she obviously entered the illusion.
This startled the little monkey and Huaying who also looked up and knew they were not qualified.
But they found that they did not enter the illusion.
"Sure enough, this illusion is not so much for the disciples of Shushan as it is for the gods." Jingtian was not surprised.
Among the four qualified people, only Xuejian is a complete god, but extremely weak.
The descendants of Nuwa inherited the [demon] body after Nuwa was removed from the divine register and combined with the turbid air of the earth.
Jingtian is now just a powerful immortal.
Longkui only has the divinity that comes from Kuiyu.
Now, Zixuan followed closely and fell into the illusion.
"It's my turn." Jingtian was a little serious and calmed down.
A [starlight] fell from the dome.
"Is this the illusion?"
Jingtian did not sink into the illusion.
He could clearly see the contents of Xuejian and Zixuan's illusion.
In the illusion that Xuejian was in, her grandfather died, and no Jingtian appeared. She was going to be married to Luo Rulie. She escaped from Tangjiabao and was chased all the way.
Zixuan was surrounded and killed by Shushan because of Xu Changqing. The skylight of the God Realm was opened, and Taiqing and even Fuxi were vaguely seen.
"It's outrageous. If Fuxi really appeared, he would destroy Shushan."
Fuxi and Nuwa are husband and wife after all. Although Nuwa's descendants are miserable, they all enter the fairyland in the Holy Spirit Pearl after death. It's like the father-in-law who looks down on his son-in-law uses means to separate his daughter and son-in-law, and can also let his daughter be tempered and see through love and the ugly nature of human beings.
Jingtian shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
He looked at the illusion he was in, or more precisely, the real appearance in the illusion.
This is another Xuanguang Palace.
[Fuxi Sword] spewed out sword energy as bright as stars on the dome, reenacting a real starry sky.
[Nuwa Blood Jade] sinks in the southeast Lihuo position, inlaid on the crystal wall, reflecting the ancient sky-repairing scene under the shining of stars.
[Shennong Ding] takes root at the bottom of the Kanshui level, with beast shadows appearing on the body of the Ding, full of murderous intent, and exotic flowers and plants in the Ding compete for beauty, showing vitality.
