Chapter 52: Broken Sword
Chapter 52: Broken Sword
If Han Zhang is real, then this world is real.
Qi Lang disappeared in place, and the stone gate was opened again.
Xu Suining walked into another closed stone room again.
It seems that what happened just now may have to happen again.
However, when the next disciple came in and saw the person in the stone room, he crushed the teleportation talisman without saying a word.
Xu Suining raised his eyebrows, but he didn't need to trouble him to do it himself.
In this way, Xu Suining walked down one stone room after another very smoothly.
When he reached the eighth stone room, he became a little impatient. When the practitioner who came in was about to crush the teleportation talisman, he took the lead to interrupt his movement with a stone.
The immortal cultivator was slightly taken aback, then saluted him respectfully, and asked, "Does Xuan He have something to ask me?"
"Which stone room is this for you?"
"The third room."
Xu Suining saw that there were several small wounds on his body that were not obvious. It seemed that it was not easy to come to the first few stone chambers.
"Give up so easily when you meet me?"
The immortal cultivator smiled and said: "It's chance to recognize the master of the artifact. Even if I really go to the end, if I don't get the approval of the artifact, this trip is still in vain. Or if you are seriously injured, wouldn't it be even more disadvantageous?"
Xu Suining glanced at the magic robe he was wearing. He should be a disciple of the Zixiao Sword Sect, and he taught him quite well.
He waved his hand casually, "Go."
"Thank you Xianzun."
This time, after the immortal cultivator disappeared, no new stone gate was opened, and the trial of this level should have ended.
Xu Suining sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and meditated.
Suddenly, something seemed to flash in front of his eyes, he opened his eyes, but there was no difference except for the solid wall.
He continued to close his eyes, and the thing that had just flashed by appeared again.
He stared at the wall thoughtfully, then crushed the Lighting Talisman without hesitation.
On the stone wall, a mural gradually became clear.
Xu Suining stood up and walked slowly towards the stone wall. On the mural, in a cave with boiling magma, a woman was suspended on the stone platform. The Sanshenghua he was looking for.
Then looking down, above the woman, a sword gradually took shape, and as the divine sword was tempered, the woman turned into a pile of bones, and Sanshenghua quietly bloomed in the bones.
Seeing this scene, Xu Suining frowned. If the murals were real, then the Sun Moon Valley used women as sacrifices for refining the artifact.
It's no wonder that from the past to now, almost no one who got the divine weapon had a good end. Everyone thought that this person's life was too shallow to bear the opportunity of the divine weapon. Now it seems that the process of refining this divine weapon is so cruel. If you hold a sword It's ridiculous that a person can still break through life and death, and reach the sky.
The murals in front of him gradually disappeared, and after about a cup of tea, Xu Suining had arrived at the foot of Chiyang Mountain.
And here with him, apart from Han Zhang, there is also a young man with an unattractive appearance and a thin body.
The young man stared at the two of them vigilantly with a pair of dark eyes, a deep sword wound on his chest was still bleeding, and his lips became pale due to excessive blood loss.
Xu Suining guessed the young man's identity, deliberately teased him, walked to Han Zhang, and said deliberately: "If you know the way, quickly crush the teleportation talisman. If we, the master and the apprentice, want to kill you, it will be a piece of cake."
From the moment Han Zhang saw Xu Suining, his eyes never left him.
Seeing that he was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief and stood silently behind him.
The young man took out a short knife from his back, and that knife was exactly the same as the one on Qi Lang's body.
"What? You also want to kill us based on your current situation?" The young man shook his head, held it in his hands, and handed it to Xu Suining. He said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Surrender the knife and surrender, and the artifact recognizes the master. The word fate, please let me in."
A flash of appreciation flashed in Xu Suining's eyes, "Although the artifact may not recognize me as the master, if I can't get something, others can't get it. I might as well kill you directly, and it will be over once and for all."
"You won't." The boy's voice was firm.
Xu Suining felt that he was boring, so it must be that kid Qi Lang who had expected him to meet him.
He shook his sleeve robe and said calmly, "Go in."
The temperature inside Chiyang Mountain is hotter than outside. In order to express his sincerity, the young man took out the water crystal jade that only belonged to the Tianlong royal family. The effect of this water crystal jade will never dissipate.
Xu Suining gave him a meaningful look. Everyone thought that Prince Rui Qi Lang was supporting the crown prince, but in fact, he was really optimistic about the young man in front of him.
The more they walked in, the more they could feel the fluctuation of spiritual power.
In the boy's usually calm eyes, he couldn't help but give birth to a glimmer of expectation.
As long as he can get the Extinguishing Sword, he can change his future!
On the other side, Xu Suining told Han Zhang the contents of the murals he had just seen in the stone chamber through his spiritual sense, but Han Zhang had never seen the murals at all.
The method of hiding the murals is not very clever, as long as you are a little careful, you can find it, let alone Han Zhang.
Now it seems that the murals may only be found in the stone room where he was.
A stone gate appeared in front of them, and then Xiao Shicheng suddenly appeared in front of them.
People over the age of 150 are not allowed to enter the Chiyang Mountain Great Formation, except for Artifact Refiners. Xiao Shicheng has the aura of divine weapons, and the Great Formation will not stop him, but similarly, Artifact Refiners will also lose their qualifications to inherit divine weapons.
Xiao Shicheng smiled at them, as if he was just a kind elder, but Xu Suining saw a trace of resentment in his cloudy eyes.
"Three friends, the artifact is about to complete its final step, so please follow me."
Before Xu Suining could speak, the young man stepped forward and stood in front of him, staring at Xiao Shicheng with a pair of black eyes and sharp eyes: "Why do you want to go in? According to the usual practice in previous years, those who pass the trial only need to wait here, waiting for the artifact Acknowledge the Lord."
A trace of impatience flashed across Xiao Shicheng's eyes, and then he explained: "This little friend knows a lot, but the situation is different every time the artifact comes into the world, if you are willing to give up this opportunity, you can Do not come in."
The boy turned his head and said softly to Xu Suining: "Don't trust him, there must be fraud."
Xu Suining naturally knew that Xiao Shicheng definitely had bad intentions, but Sanshenghua was inside, even if Xiao Shicheng didn't let him in, he would go in.
Xu Suining gently brushed the boy's hand away, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I have a reason to go in."
After finishing speaking, together with Han Zhang, Xiao Shicheng entered the stone gate.
Seeing them disappear, the boy saw a flash of anxiety in his usually calm eyes. He stomped his feet and followed after all.
Xiao Shicheng walked in the front, a trace of madness flashed in his eyes.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xu Suining saw exactly the same scene as in the mural, except that there was no woman under the artifact.
Xiao Shicheng stopped in his tracks, and in the next moment, countless sharp blades appeared in the rock wall, so densely packed that there was nowhere to hide.
Han Zhang guarded Xu Suining behind him, sacrificed the Mie Shen Sword, and cut off those sharp blades at the waist without any effort.
Xiao Shicheng narrowed his eyes, and said with a sneer: "You killed my son, today, none of you will get out of here alive!"
"It's strange, your son, didn't you kill it yourself? What does it have to do with us?"
These words really hurt Xiao Shicheng, and even made him roar madly.
Yes, he personally killed Xiao Ren.
He must not let Lian Zimo know the secret of Xiao Ren, otherwise, he would not be able to explain to him.
But all of this must be their fault!
"If it wasn't for you secretly moving your hands and feet, how could my son go crazy for no reason?"
"Then why did you kill Yin Feng?" Xu Suining's eyes were cold. In this absurd thing, the most innocent person was Yin Feng who had been drained of his spiritual power. He didn't even do anything.
"It's his own bad luck. He broke in suddenly. If his spiritual power is high enough, he can escape naturally. It's a pity that he is a waste. What's the use of such a waste in the world? It's better to be sucked by my son." Spiritual power." Xiao Shicheng's smile gradually went wild, he touched a bump on the wall with his hand, and pressed it down.
Immediately, a barrier appeared around them, and hot magma poured into the barrier continuously.
Xiao Shicheng stood in the distance, enjoying the scene in front of him happily, and soon, he could hear the screams coming from inside!It must be even more tragic than when Yin Feng died.
However, when the hot magma had completely covered the barrier, there was not a single sound from inside.
Just when he was wondering, a crack suddenly appeared in the enchantment, and before he could react, the enchantment suddenly exploded, and the magma inside seemed to have life, and rushed straight towards him.
With a scream, the living person standing there turned into a mass of pitch black in an instant, completely inhuman, and his two exposed eyeballs trembled in horror, "The son of the devil? Hahaha, It turned out to be the son of the Demon King! The person whom the lord has been looking for for so long, is actually hiding in Qingyang Sect?"
Xiao Shicheng tremblingly took out the sound transmission talisman.
"Not good!" Xu Suining frowned, and was about to fly over to stop him.
In the next second, a flying knife pierced through the air, cutting off Xiao Shicheng's hand like cutting mud, and Xu Suining dealt a fatal blow.
A generation of craftsman celestial masters fell away.
Han Zhang kicked the corpse off the cliff, and the hot magma swallowed it in an instant.
However, none of them saw a faint light emerge from his body and disappeared into the rock wall.
Xu Suining was quite surprised by the boy's sudden attack just now, and asked curiously, "Do you have a grudge against him?"
The young man shook his head, then nodded, and pointed behind him, "He wanted to kill me just now, so he has a grudge against me."
Xu Suining smiled and said nothing.
This young man's temperament is quite to his liking.
Suddenly, the magma in the ground rushed towards one place, as if nothing had been sucked in.
"The artifact will be completed."
But Xu Suining's eyebrows still haven't stretched, he hasn't seen Sanshenghua, and the sacrificial woman on the mural.
The magma stopped surging, and a stone platform slowly rose from the center of the magma.
A dazzling white light flashed, and a snow-white sword was suspended in the air.
After the light dissipated, Xu Suining finally saw the woman in the mural.
She lay quietly on the stone platform, a thread of blood connected to the divine sword from her chest.
At this scene, even Han Zhang couldn't help frowning, "The sword is absorbing her vitality, and she is dying."
The moment the divine sword was refined was when she turned into bones.
"Bai Ling! Wake up, Bai Ling!"
Beside the stone platform, a phantom slowly emerged, and Xu Suining immediately recognized that it was the old man beside Xiao Ren!
Since the day Xiao Ren died, there has been no trace of him in Sun Moon Valley, never expected that he would appear here.
The boy's doubts came from behind, "How did he get in?"
"This is not his real body. If my guess is correct, he should have attached a ray of consciousness to Xiao Shicheng's body and came in with him." Xu Suining explained, but his eyes were fixed on the stone platform Beside the woman, a small white flower stood there alone, the flower bone was only half in bloom, he knew that only when the woman completely dissipated, the Sanshenghua could fully mature and bloom.
The old man in gray wanted to touch the woman on the stone platform, but he could only pass through her body again and again in despair.
The mahayana practitioner, who has always been arrogant, knelt down in front of the three juniors, "Please, save her, she shouldn't be a victim."
Xu Suining shouldn't hesitate, he has to take the Sanshenghua back to Feng Molin, he doesn't know the woman in front of him, the gray-clothed old man once conspired with Xiao Ren to harm him, this place...is just a world in a book, but... …
He looked at Han Zhang beside him, now, can he still separate the reality from the virtual?
Han Zhang thought that Xu Suining was asking him what he thought, so he unhesitatingly sacrificed his sword and said firmly, "I will do what Master says."
Xu Suining smiled suddenly, his eyes were firm, and he had already made a choice.
Since Han Zhang is real, the world he lives in should also be real.
After exchanging glances with Han Zhang, he called out Jingchen, and slashed forward with a sword, splitting a gap in the heat wave from the cliff to the stone platform.
A bright red light followed closely behind, and the sword energy of Mie Shen Jian slashed towards the red line. However, the red line was not harmed at all, and it continued to absorb Bai Ling's vitality.
Hong Gan said anxiously: "It's useless, unless the artifact is destroyed, this red thread can't be cut by anyone!"
Xu Suining looked up at the Excalibur wrapped in light.
"Bang!" Jingchen directly faced the incomplete artifact, but apart from shaking it a little, it was like the continuous red line without leaving a trace.
"boom!"
Another blow, the Mie Shen Sword landed heavily on the place where Jingchen hit just now.
This time, a crack finally appeared on the Excalibur, and the red line connecting the two also dimmed.
"It works, but it's too slow."
"What does Master want to do?"
Xu Suining glanced at the magma flowing underground, "Use the power of heaven and earth."
The ground fire here is endless, and it is also the place where the divine sword was bred. It is definitely possible to use its power to destroy the divine sword.
However, if the ground fire is to be aroused, the stone platform will be destroyed, and Bai Ling can only be preserved as much as possible.
Xu Suining took Jingchen back, turned to Han Zhang and said, "The earth fire will melt the spiritual weapon, and only the divine weapon can resist it."
Han Zhang nodded, "Master, don't worry."
Xu Suining pursed his lips, "Be careful."
After finishing speaking, Han Zhang hovered in mid-air, placed the Mie Shen Sword in front of him, read out the formula, and the seal attached to the Nascent Soul was released.
Immediately, the devilish energy overflowed, the youth in black fluttered his robes, his eyes were filled with crimson, the magma under his feet stopped churning in an instant, and wisps of red energy flew out from the magma, surrounding the Extinguishing Sword.
That is ground fire.
Seeing that Han Zhang had successfully induced the ground fire, Xu Suining immediately recited the formula, and countless vines burst out of the ground.
On the stone platform, the last trace of Bai Ling's vitality came out from the red thread, slowly pouring towards the Excalibur, the end connected to her body became transparent, and she, starting from the fingertips, gradually turned into white bones.
"Time is running out!"
Han Zhang grasped the Mie Shenjian surrounded by earth fire, his hand turned into charred immediately, but he still didn't let go, and hit the imminently formed Excalibur with all his strength.
At that moment, everything around seemed to be still.
The red thread was almost transparent, but in the next moment, the remaining vitality returned to its original owner's body with all its strength!
Excalibur lost its support and gradually became dim.
At the same time, the stone platform began to crack.
The vines were blocked by the magma splashed around the stone platform, unable to approach Bai Ling.
Seeing that everything was about to fall, Xu Suining gritted his teeth and flew onto the stone platform. The magma splashed immediately burned his robe and directly scalded his arm.
At the last moment when the stone platform collapsed, Xu Suining caught Bai Ling, and the white flower that had not yet bloomed instantly withered and fell along with the gravel.
"Master!" Han Zhang's eager cry came from his ear.
Xu Suining summoned Jingchen again, tapped his toes, and used them as pedals to fly towards the edge of the cliff.
The distance was too far, but fortunately, a few vines flew over through the heat wave and caught the two of them.
Xu Suining recalled at the last moment of Jingchen's fall.
All of this was finally safe and sound.
Seeing that Bai Ling was still alive, Hong Gan burst into tears, and then disappeared into the cave.
"This old thing, he ran away after being rescued!"
Han Zhang walked over with heavy steps, as if injured.
Xu Suining cast a questioning look, Han Zhang just smiled and said, "Master, I'm fine, let's go out quickly."
"Well, let's go out and talk."
The two walked to the entrance of the cave, only to find that there was still a child standing there.
"Why are you still here?" Xu Suining asked.
"Wait for you." The boy replied calmly.
Xu Suining was silent for a while, then raised his legs and continued to walk forward.
After leaving Chiyang Mountain, Xu Suining put Bai Ling down, turned around and grabbed Han Zhang's hand to check the situation. No, to be more precise, it couldn't be seen that it was a hand at all.
When he was eroded by the devil's energy, he could still see the human form. Even Xu Suining couldn't help but tremble slightly at the tragic appearance.
"Master, I'm really fine, it doesn't hurt too much, but the injury on your body should be dealt with as soon as possible."
Xu Suining was silent and did not speak.
Suddenly, Hong Gan's consciousness reappeared.
"Today's kindness will be repaid in the future!"
"We don't have to," Xu Suining brought the boy who had been silent all this time to him. "It's his chance that was destroyed. If you want to repay him in the future, you can find him."
Hong Gan vaguely knew something and nodded.
The boy finally couldn't help but asked, "Why are you so sure that the artifact is my chance?"
"I figured it out."
The young man knew that some cultivators have the ability to predict the future. When I saw it for the first time today, apart from being a little surprised, I was more excited. "Immortal Venerable, can I also have such an ability?"
Seeing the freshness that a boy of this age should have on his face, Xu Suining couldn't help but smile when he remembered the tenacity and calmness of a boy along the way, "Of course...no, this ability is only available to me. .”
The young man didn't feel disappointed, but looked at Xu Suining even more frantically, "My name is Qi Yue, and I will definitely go to Qingyangzong to visit the immortal in person in the future!"
Xu Suining was startled, as if he didn't expect the young man to have such an attitude, but he was relieved at once, how could the young emperor who will dominate one side in the future be like ordinary people.
"In that case, the deity will wait for you at Xuanyang Peak."
Qi Yue nodded, then crushed the teleportation talisman without hesitation, and disappeared in place, simply and neatly, without any muddling.
"Han Zhang, let's go out too, your injury needs to be healed as soon as possible."
"Yes, Master."
This time, facing Master's admirers, he behaved extremely calmly.
It's just that Xu Suining was worried about his injury and didn't notice it.
The author says:
Hong Gan: "If you want to save people, you must destroy the artifact."
Xu Suining: "Okay, ruin."
Han Zhang: "Okay, listen to Master."
Qi Yue: You don't even ask me if you ask me.
