The sky had just darkened when Xu Canghai, the Danqing Swordsman of the Confucian Garden, came to visit. As soon as they entered the cave, the Danqing Swordsman Xu Canghai laughed loudly and said,""Brother Zi Yang, this time, I've specially come to congratulate you. This time, Lu Yun and Ling Chen had defeated their opponents and obtained victory, especially when Lu Yun had defeated Leng Jiahao from the Heavenly Health Garden, which was beyond everyone's expectations. He had finally suppressed the prestige of the Heavenly Sword Institute.”
Perfected Zi Yang happily went up to him and said with a smile,""You flatter me. Please sit down. Why are you so free now that you want to come and see us? This time, you should know better than us about the situation of the other courtyards. Tell us quickly.”
Danqing Swordsman Xu Canghai glanced at everyone. Seeing that Xuan Yu was not around, he did not mind and said with a smile,"This time, I came mainly to congratulate Lu Yun and Ling Chen on their great victory. At the same time, I brought my disciples Li Ming and Gao Feng to greet you. As for the situation of the Sixth Hospital this time, your Yi Garden is the most awe-inspiring. This time, only four of you have entered the top 12. Only one person from Phoenix Academy and Dao Garden has entered, so you are temporarily lagging behind. The other three courtyards would have two people each, maintaining a balance.”
"Martial Uncle Xu, may I know who the other four courtyards are?" Lu Yun asked from the side. Can you tell us so that we can be mentally prepared?”
Danqing Swordsman Xu Canghai pondered for a moment and said,""Our Confucian Garden is Bi Tian and Du Li, the Dao Garden is Wuwang, and the Bodhi Academy is Benyi and Jiechan. As for the Heavenly Sword Academy, it was Jian Wuchen and Zhan Yu. Tomorrow, the final battle would be the most crucial. Whoever could win that battle would enter the top six. Therefore, tomorrow's battle would be the most dangerous. In order to compete for the top six, every disciple would do their best. No one would have it easy.”
Lu Yun, Zhang Aoxue, Li Hongfei, and Ling Chen looked at each other, but none of them said anything, and their hearts felt heavy. Perfected Zi Yang looked at them and said softly,""In this competition, no matter what, we have already tried our best. As long as he had a clear conscience and was worthy of heaven and earth, it would be fine. As for the final result, he would leave it to fate.”After a while, the Danqing Swordsman Xu Canghai dragged Zi Yang out.
Under the moonlight, a slender figure extended into the cave from the entrance. That slightly thin figure stood quietly at the entrance. The moonlight tonight is very beautiful, just like last night. Cangyue, are you still the same as you were in the past? Why have you come to the Heavenly Sword Academy, but I haven't seen you yet? Tomorrow is the battle for the top six.”
At this moment, Lu Yun and Ao Xue were walking side by side. In the night breeze, the alluring fragrance deeply attracted Lu Yun's attention, causing him to focus all his attention on that alluring body. Abruptly, Ao Xue turned around and looked at him, saying coldly,""In tomorrow's match, do you think any of us will be able to enter the top six?”
Lu Yun looked at her misty eyes and said softly,""Who knows what will happen tomorrow? However, I believe that among the four of us, Ling Chen will definitely be able to enter the top 6.”
When Zhang Aoxue heard this, she was a little surprised. She looked at the bright moon in the sky and said softly,"Why are you so sure?"
"Ling Chen is very mysterious," Lu Yun said softly."He has been very mysterious since the first time I met him. The moon is as clear as water tonight. Let's talk about something else, okay?”When Zhang Aoxue heard this, his expression was calm. He looked at the moon in the sky and said softly,"The days of cultivation are very quiet. What is there to say? Perhaps, while gaining strength and longevity, cultivators also lost the happiness that ordinary people should have.”
"If that's the case, then what's the reason for longevity?" Lu Yun asked softly. Did people live for survival or for happiness? In fact, as long as he was happy, why should he care too much about longevity? Cultivators were also humans. Humans had emotions and desires, and that was inevitable. Once a person had no emotions and desires, would they still be considered human? Perhaps to put it nicely, it was an immortal. If it did not sound good, what should it be called? We are still young and are in the stage of making a choice. Once we make the wrong choice, we will never be able to turn back in this life, right?”
Zhang Aoxue didn't say anything and just looked at the moon quietly. Zhang Aoxue watched quietly for a while before slowly walking toward the Yellow River. In the air, her faint voice was left,""In that case, why did you cultivate?”
Lu Yun looked at her back. Under the moonlight, a silver light shone on her moving figure, like a fairy from the moon palace descending to the mortal world. Thinking of her words, Lu Yun gently followed her and said,"I came here to fulfill a wish. To me, cultivation is just a way to fulfill my wishes. Since I'm still alive, I won't yield to anyone. If he wanted to be happy, he had to walk the path of cultivation. Everyone had a purpose for cultivating spells. It was just a matter of their own goals. As for me, I just want to be happy for the rest of my life and do whatever I want.”
There was no sound, no answer. Everything just disappeared into the night sky.
Suddenly, Zhang Aoxue's expression changed. The purple shadow of the divine sword that he carried with him suddenly flew out automatically. The tip of the sword pointed to the west. It was the Yellow River. Ao Xue looked at Lu Yun and said softly,""Something must have happened at the Yellow River. Otherwise, my divine sword wouldn't have flown out by itself. Let's go and take a look."
Lu Yun looked to the west and said in a deep voice," I remember that in the Ghost Forest, this divine sword had extremely strong destructive power against foreign objects like ghosts and monsters. Now that it's suddenly unsheathed, is it reminding us that there are demons and ghosts there too? Recently, demons and ghosts had appeared all over the world. Could it be that there were even demons and ghosts on Taixuan Mountain? We'd better go take a look and understand. Let's go." With that said, the Wishful Sword flashed with red light and disappeared with Lu Yun.
The two of them rose to a height of 200 feet above the ground and quickly shot toward the Yellow River. From afar, he could see a five-colored light flowing by the Yellow River. An extremely powerful aura instantly spread out in all directions. At the same time, another silver-yellow light reflected the moonlight, shining with a beautiful and dazzling light. It also emitted a powerful aura.
Zhang Aoxue's expression changed slightly. The purple shadow of the divine sword seemed to have been infected, and a purple light shot into the sky. The divine sword's purple shadow suddenly erupted with a dazzling purple light that instantly spread out in all directions. The world was filled with purple light. Lu Yun was shocked when she saw this. Suddenly, a clear picture appeared in her mind. Lu Yun looked at Ao Xue and said,""That's the light of the Howling Moon Divine Sword and the Heavenly Spirit Divine Sword. I didn't expect the three legendary divine swords to gather at Taixuan Mountain. Let's go quickly. There are demons there. Let's go and take a look.”After saying that, the two of them immediately increased their strength. Their bodies were like meteors as they instantly disappeared from where they were and appeared beside the Yellow River.
Lu Yun and Zhang Aoxue landed on the cliff beside the Yellow River in a flash of light. Looking carefully, he realized that there were already two people here. One was Jian Wuchen from the Heavenly Sword Academy, and the other was Cang Yue from the Phoenix Academy. A five-colored divine sword was spinning above Jian Wuchen's head. He was staring at the surface of the Yellow River. On the other side, a silver-yellow sword was spinning above Cang Yue's head. It emitted a moonlight-like glow that enveloped her in midair. That mysterious and beautiful figure was like a fairy in the night sky. She seemed to be elegant and otherworldly, without a trace of mortal thoughts.
Tenacious Snow looked at Cang Yue with a strange glint in her eyes. A purple light flashed from the divine sword above his head. Aoxue rose into the air and stood in a triangular formation with Cangyue and Jian Wuchen, quietly watching the surface of the Yellow River. On the side, Lu Yun looked at the three people in the air, and a strange smile flashed in his eyes. He moved his body slightly to the edge of the cliff and carefully observed the water surface.
Under the moonlight, three different lights stood quietly by the Yellow River. A man and two women quietly watched the movements of the Yellow River. Lu Yun had already made a rough guess. He saw a faint black demonic qi pervading the Yellow River. It was very difficult to detect. The raging waves in the east kept roaring. Countless splashes formed beautiful waves on the surface of the water. However, everything that was originally normal seemed a little different at this moment. The waves kept increasing, slowly forming nine extremely large waves on the surface of the river. They were like nine vortexes, very beautiful but full of strangeness.
Jian Wuchen glanced at Cang Yue and Zhang Aoxue, his eyes filled with amazement. Looking back at the Yellow River, Jian Wuchen said,""Be careful, this monster is about to appear. Since it dared to appear under our three divine swords, it obviously has extraordinary cultivation. Otherwise, it wouldn't dare to appear so easily. Everyone, pay close attention and be careful of what tricks this monster has. We must kill it tonight. To defend the dignity of our righteous cultivation world.”Cang Yue and Ao Xue didn't speak. They just looked at the water quietly, which made Jian Wuchen feel a little awkward.
Suddenly, the surface of the water changed. Black smoke suddenly rose from the center of the nine huge waves and instantly transformed into nine black lotus flowers. They circled on the water surface and emitted a bewitching light. Soon, the nine lotus flowers released nine black demonic auras. In the center of the nine lotus flowers, a black lotus throne was slowly rotating. As time passed, the lotus platform spun faster and faster, gradually turning into a black pillar of light that shot into the sky. Just as the pillar of light shot into the sky, a powerful demonic aura, like a roaring wave, instantly spread throughout Taixuan Mountain.
At this moment, Jian Wuchen roared loudly. The divine sword's crown spirit was covered in five-colored light, forming a huge sword pillar that was hundreds of feet long in the air. It instantly slashed at the black light pillar. On the side, the Cang Yue Divine Sword was in his hand, slashing at the nine lotus flowers. A dazzling silver-yellow light struck the nine lotus flowers in an instant. Seeing this, Ao Xue did not want to fall behind. The Purple Shadow Divine Sword shone brightly and turned into a purple dragon. It circled in the air and firmly locked down the demonic aura.
Light flashed and a loud bang shook the sky. Under the night sky, all kinds of colorful lights flew in all directions in the explosion, forming a very strange scene. Jian Wuchen's sudden attack collided with the black pillar of light, resulting in a violent explosion. The entire Yellow River was swept up into the air. However, what was shocking was that Jian Wuchen's powerful sword attack did not break the black light pillar. Instead, it was knocked back several meters and suffered a slight loss. And Cang Yue's sword actually had the same result. This shocked the four people present.
The black pillar of light shook slightly after being hit by the fierce attack, but it quickly regained its stability. On the surface of the water, the nine lotus flowers were like nine stone pillars. They stood there unbreakable, mysterious and evil. At this moment, two black dragons suddenly appeared from the black demonic qi around the pillar of light. They circled around the pillar of light continuously. All of this was mysterious and unfathomable.
Jian Wuchen steadied himself and looked at the black pillar of light with a hint of confusion. Glancing at Cang Yue and Ao Xue, Jian Wuchen asked,""Junior Martial Sisters, have you seen this mysterious pillar of light before? Do you know its origin? This thing is so strange. It's not even afraid of the divine weapons in our hands. What could it be? Strange?”
Cang Yue glanced at Lu Yun, who was standing by the cliff, then turned back to look at the pillar of light and said indifferently,""This is also the first time I've encountered such a demon. I didn't expect it to be so powerful. "Now, I believe that the sect masters already know about what happened here. They should be able to rush over immediately. We should wait for a while. We'll make a decision after they arrive.”
Zhang Aoxue looked at Lu Yun and said softly,""Lu Yun, you'd better step back a little. Be careful of danger. We still can't tell what this demon is. We have to be careful.”
The moment Jian Wuchen made his move, Lu Yun had already carefully investigated the origin of the black pillar of light. He had once sent out seven Divine Waves of Will in a row. Unfortunately, this black pillar of light had the power to corrode all Yin souls and devoured all seven of his Divine Waves of Will. This made Lu Yun not dare to use his Mind Wave easily. He could only use other methods to analyze the nature and origin of this black pillar of light.
At this moment, hearing Ao Xue's words, Lu Yun's heart was filled with joy and he retreated 30 feet. Looking at Ao Xue, Lu Yun smiled and said,""If Yun Feng was here, he might have a way to find out who this demon is. It was a pity that he was not here now. Otherwise, she could ask him. However, it did not matter. The experts from the Sixth Hospital had already arrived.”As soon as he finished speaking, Ao Xue and the other two did not notice it, but a few figures had already flashed across the sky. In an instant, nine figures appeared in front of the four of them.
Apart from the six sect masters, there was also Ling Chen from the Dao Garden's Undesirable Bodhi Academy's Ben Yi Garden. Looking at the black pillar of light, the six sect masters 'expressions changed slightly and they looked at each other. "I didn't expect the Hundred Beasts Demon Region's black lotus throne to appear in the human world again after so many years." It seemed that the world was really going to be in chaos this time.”
Bodhi Academy's Master of Cultivation and Fruit said,""Legend has it that this black lotus throne has not appeared in the human world for more than a thousand years. I didn't expect that Taixuan Mountain would suddenly appear during the Martial Arts Symposium of the Six Academies. It's really unusual. Seeing that all the demons and ghosts in the world were ready to move, the world would be in chaos.”
" It's said that when the black lotus platform appeared, it was only a flash in the pan," Qixuan Zhenren of the Dao Garden said." After that, the world began to fall into chaos. Would this time be the same as the last time? This thing was very difficult to deal with and could not be easily destroyed. The black lotus was known as one of the three great treasures of the Hundred Beasts Demon Region. It was said that it had never been destroyed by the people of the cultivation world. It was said that the Black Lotus Body was indestructible for ten thousand years. There was nothing in the world that could destroy it.”
The police looked at everyone and said in a deep voice,"Our Heavenly Sword Academy has records of this legend. According to the ancient records, there seems to be something in the world that can destroy this black lotus, but no one knows what it is. "What we need to do now is to watch the movements of this black lotus. As long as it doesn't change, we won't fight it for the time being.”
On this side, Perfected Xuan Yu called Aoxue and Lu Yun to his side and asked about this matter in a low voice. After listening to their conversation, Perfected Xuan Yu sighed and said,""I didn't expect that the legendary three divine swords would finally gather at Taixuan Mountain. However, if even the divine sword is unable to restrain this black pillar of light, then even if the six of us attack, it won't be of much use.”
When Lu Yun heard this, he looked at the black pillar of light and could not help but recall that when he first came here, Sage Zi Yang had once said that there was a very powerful and magical sword matrix on Taixuan Mountain. Why was there no movement at all now? Could something have happened somewhere? Lu Yun looked at Perfected Xuan Yu and asked softly,""Uncle Master, when we went up the mountain, Master said that there was a mysterious Xuantian Sword Formation on Taixuan Mountain. Why is there no movement now? And why was there no trace of the legendary divine bird, the Great Roc?”
Perfected Xuan Yu glanced at the others and said softly,""The Xuantian Sword Array does exist. However, the Heavenly Sword Institute is afraid of accidentally injuring the disciples of the other five colleges during the Martial Arts Symposium, so they temporarily shut down the sword array. As for the legendary divine bird, it was usually very difficult to show itself. Unless the Heavenly Sword Academy was in great danger and it was a matter of life and death, the divine bird might only appear.”
Lu Yun looked at the black pillar of light. The original black lotus had been surrounded and could not be seen at all. Looking at the pillar of light, Lu Yun suddenly said,""Is this powerful demonic qi hinting at something? Or is it showing off to our cultivation world?”
Lu Yun's voice was not loud, but when the others heard it, their expressions changed slightly. Lu Yun's words made sense. Black Lotus had always appeared, but Pianpian had appeared at this time. No one would believe that she didn't have the intention of looking down on the cultivation world. However, even if it had the intention of looking down on the Sixth Campus, there was nothing it could do now. Wasn't this a shameful thing?
The Supreme Headmaster of the Heavenly Sword Institute glanced at the crowd and said with a dark expression,"Since this matter has appeared in Taixuan Mountain, it means that we are looking down on the Six Academies. Now that all six of us are gathered here, and all the masters from each of us are here, if we still can't take care of it, how can we have a foothold in the cultivation world? Now, the legendary three great divine swords are gathered here. I think that as long as the three divine swords combine into one, they will naturally be able to suppress this black lotus. Now, we'll let the three of them try. The three swords merging into one will multiply their power. That's a glimmer of hope. Dustless, you first discuss with the two junior sisters at the side. "If you want to combine the three swords, you must work together. Only then will there be hope. You guys communicate first. After an incense stick of time, prepare to give it a try.”Then, he gave Jian Wuchen a look.
Hearing this, Jian Wuchen's eyes flashed with joy and he nodded. Looking at the two beautiful women, Jian Wuchen said,""Junior martial sisters, let's go to the side and discuss. Later, we can join forces and try to destroy this demon.”After saying that, he looked at Cang Yue and Ao Xue with a face full of vigor.
Cang Yue acted as if she hadn't heard anything and only looked in Perfected Being Xuan Yu's direction. Ling Chen also looked at Cang Yue. The exchange of glances between the two surprised the onlookers. " Cang Yue," Yu Wushuang reminded when she saw Cang Yue's strange expression. Cang Yue looked away from Ling Chen and did not say anything as she slowly walked towards Jian Wuchen. Perfected Xuan Yu looked at Ling Chen and nodded in agreement. Seeing this, Zhang Aoxue looked at Lu Yun and then at Ling Chen before walking towards Jian Wuchen. Soon, the three of them walked several feet away and began to discuss in low voices. Lu Yun looked at Ling Chen, who was still staring at Cang Yue, and said softly,""What's wrong, Ling Chen?" Ling Chen shook his head and looked at the Headmaster.
The police looked at the sect masters and smiled."I didn't expect that the three divine swords would finally meet this time. Perhaps this is also the will of heaven. Perhaps Heaven wanted to borrow the hands of the three of them to stop this calamity. Look at the three of them. Don't you think they're very compatible? The divine sword was bestowed by the heavens, and marriage was formed by itself, wasn't it? What do you think, Brother Xuan Yu and Sect Master Yu?"
These words made the faces of Perfected Xuan Yu and Yu Wushuang change slightly. They didn't expect him to suddenly mention this matter. Looking at the three people not far away, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They were really a perfect match that was hard to find in the world. It was just that this matter was probably not easy to answer. If he did not do it well, he might offend the Heavenly Sword Institute. However, Yi Garden and Phoenix Academy were unwilling to agree to this. After all, Cang Yue and Ao Xue were both outstanding disciples of the two academies. Once they agreed to this matter, they would become members of the Heavenly Sword Academy in the future. Even the two divine swords would belong to the Heavenly Sword Academy. At that time, the other five academies would never be able to shake the Heavenly Sword Academy's position as number one. Hearing this, Ling Chen's eyes flashed with a cold light.
Yu Wushuang smiled indifferently and said in a soft voice,""These things are no longer up to us elders to decide. Although these disciples won't object to our words, it's hard to guarantee that they won't hate us in the future. "Therefore, the best way to do this is to let them make their own choices. We just have to pay attention to them from the side and prevent them from blaming us in the future. What does Sect Master Xuan Yu think?" After saying that, he glanced at Perfected Xuan Yu.
"What I'm thinking is exactly the same as what Sect Master Yu said," Immortal Xuan Yu said indifferently. Cultivators shouldn't talk about feelings, but no matter what, cultivators were still humans. There were always emotions and desires that needed to be overcome step by step. To them, it was also a kind of worldly tribulation that was beneficial to their cultivation. However, I, Yi Yuan, value the cultivation of the heart the most, so I'll let her choose her own feelings for her. For cultivators, the most difficult hurdle was love, so they had to be extremely cautious. As elders, we can give suggestions, but we shouldn't force them. What do you think, Brother Changchun?" After saying that, he looked at her.
The police's eyes turned cold, but they quickly regained their calmness. He smiled and said,"Brother Xuan Yu is right. I'm really too worried. Forget it, let's leave everything to fate. Since they have the divine sword, perhaps some things are already destined. Why should we worry about them? "Now, we should think about whether there's a better way to deal with this black lotus.”
Everyone fell into deep thought when they heard this. Lu Yun looked at Ao Xue who was not far away and felt a little uneasy. Perhaps it was because of Aoxue's words that made him feel uneasy. He was really afraid that if Aoxue were to end up with Jian Wuchen in the future, he would never have a chance.
Time passed as they pondered. Soon, Jian Wuchen, Zhang Aoxue, and Cang Yue returned. Looking at the black pillar of light and sensing the powerful demonic qi, the three of them looked at each other and prepared with all their might. The three divine swords gave off different lights and circled above their heads, slowly emitting three powerful auras. As time passed, the three powerful auras gradually gathered above the three of them, forming a powerful and peerless aura that instantly filled the entire Taixuan Mountain.
Under the moonlight, on Taixuan Mountain, on the banks of the Yellow River, a battle between good and evil was about to take place. What would the final result be? What did the appearance of the black lotus imply? Would Ling Chen be able to walk together with Cang Yue?
