Chapter 208 The eighth time to worship the mountain and seize the sword
Xiyue City!
Three days passed in a flash, and although the fighting between the five major families had long since subsided, Xiyue City was still desolate and silent.
Xiyue City is still under complete lockdown. While internal information is being prevented from spreading, members of the Gongsun family are also leaving in batches one after another.
Early morning!
It's still dark!
"Miss, it's time to set off..." At the gate of Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, the last team of the Gongsun family was preparing to leave.
Before this, the Gongsun family had quietly evacuated in this way.
Gongsun Qing is in charge of the last team.
"Have everything been arranged in the city?" Gongsunqing asked a middle-aged steward. ??
The other party replied, "We have left enough food for the people in the city, which can last for at least a month."
The five major families were fighting. Some people went out of the city to avoid trouble, while others hid in the city.
In order to have enough time to retreat, Xiyue City will be sealed from the outside after the last team of the Gongsun family leaves.
In this way, people outside and people inside still cannot contact each other.
By the time people on both sides realized something was wrong, the Gongsun family had long since disappeared.
Gongsunqing stood under the main building of Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, and she looked to the top.
In fact, she really wanted to say goodbye to Xiao Nuo.
But these days, the other party has been practicing.
Gongsun Qing wanted to wake him up several times, but gave up because she knew Xiao Nuo was a very "busy" person.
He is not busy practicing practice all the time.
"Wanjin Chamber of Commerce...Xiyue City..." Gongsun Qing murmured.
The ancestors of the Gongsun family have worked hard all their lives, and finally they have to stay here.
Gongsun Qing's heart was full of melancholy, and when it came time to really leave, she was filled with reluctance.
"Miss, it's almost dawn!"
The steward urged.
Gongsun Qing took a deep breath and immediately got into a carriage.
…
The eastern sky gradually sheds brilliant streaks of
color.
Xiao Nuo sat on the high platform on the top floor of Wanjin Chamber of Commerce for three days.
From the outside, Xiao Nuo seemed to be simply meditating.
But from Xiao Nuo's perspective, he was in an endless abyss at the moment.
In front of Xiao Nuo, the Guardian Eye was suspended. After three days of absorption and refining, this Guardian Eye became only the size of a bean...
A steady stream of red spiritual energy penetrated into Xiao Nuo's eyebrows, and then spread into branch-like lines.
"Crack!"
When the last trace of power remaining in the eyes of the guardian was absorbed by Xiao Nuo, he suddenly opened his eyes...
"Buzz!"
A powerful and mysterious aura surged out.
The branch-like red lines all gathered towards the center of Xiao Nuo's eyebrows.
The illusion that enveloped Xiao Nuo began to be torn apart, the endless darkness receded like a tide, and the surrounding environment quickly returned to normal...
"Whoosh!"
A white light flashed, Xiao Nuo lifted the illusion, and what came into view was Xiyue City in the early morning.
And between Xiao Nuo's eyebrows, a red mark appeared.
This mark is twisted, like two shallow water ripples.
It is exactly the refined state of the "Guardian's Eye".
With a thought in Xiao Nuo's mind, the red mark quickly disappeared, as if it had never appeared before.
"call!"
Xiao Nuo took a deep breath.
"I didn't expect that the spiritual energy contained in the 'Eye of the Guardian' is so powerful, and that it can also allow me to break through to the second level of the feudal realm..."
Follow Xiao Nuo to activate the spiritual power in his body.
"Buzz!" The air flow shook, and two powerful golden spirit wheels suddenly appeared outside Xiao Nuo's body.
The two spiritual wheels are intertwined with each other, rotating up and down, like a holy ring of body protection.
Although he only broke through the first level, Xiao Nuo was still surprised.
After all, the main power of the Guardian Eye is to "see through illusions" and "create illusions".
Immediately, the two golden spiritual wheels converged toward the center, and soon gathered inside Xiao Nuo's body.
After doing this, Xiao Nuo stood up and stretched his muscles.
The Wanjin Chamber of Commerce is unusually quiet today.
Xiao Nuo turned around and looked at the open-air terrace behind him. He immediately saw a letter pressed on the table.
Xiao Nuo stepped forward and opened the letter.
It is what Gongsun Qing left behind.
"I'm leaving. I'm a busy person who only cares about cultivation. I'm not a person who likes to leave without saying goodbye. This letter is my farewell to you. Thank you for saving the Gongsun family, and thank you for saving me. The flowers will bloom again.
, people have a day to meet again! This farewell is to prepare for the next reunion. Don’t forget your promise and come to the Snow Kingdom to find me when you have the opportunity..."
Looking at the content above, Xiao Nuo smiled slightly.
He looked in the direction outside the city.
At this time, Gongsun Qing had already left Xiyue City.
"Goodbye, Gongsun Qing!"
…
The next day!
Xiao Nuo returned to Piaomiao Sect!
Xiao Nuo, who had just returned, heard the sect discussing something.
This matter is related to the Nirvana Palace.
“Next month will be the time for the eighth ‘worship the mountain and seize the sword’ in Nirvana Hall!”
"Yes! Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, it's already the ninth year. The defeat of Ying Wuya, the master of the Nirvana Palace, directly ruined the glory of the entire Nirvana Palace. The 'Sky Burial Sword' has not been
Not back yet!”
"It is said that the seven geniuses in the Nirvana Palace have not yet been buried."
"Yes, not only those seven geniuses, but also Ying Wuya's bones are still in the Forbidden Sword Valley and have not been buried either!"
"I wonder who the Nirvana Palace will send to the Tiangang Sword Sect this year to worship the mountain and seize the sword?"
"
You don’t need to think about it to know that it must be the new true disciple, Xiao Nuo!”
"Having said that, I still want to say that no matter who the Nirvana Palace sends, there will only be the eighth coffin waiting for you!"
"..."
The things that the people of the sect are talking about are the things that the Nirvana Palace is least willing to mention.
At the same time, it is also the thing that you least want to face.
Nine years ago…
Ying Wuya, the number one swordsman of the Piaomiao Sect, and Feng Jinxiu, the strongest swordsman of the Tiangang Sword Sect, had a sword duel. That duel originally attracted the attention of the entire Donghuang.
The Tiangang Sword Sect uses ten rare mineral veins as bargaining chips, while the Piao Miao Sect uses the Sky Burial Sword as a bet.
It was in that battle that Ying Wuya lost completely.
It was that battle that left the Sky Burial Sword in the Tiangang Sword Sect.
It was also after that battle that the Tiangang Sword Sect brought seven years of trampling and humiliation to the Nirvana Palace.
The Jianzong allowed the Piaomiao Sect to send a disciple to "beg for swords" every other year, but every year they failed.
Seven years in a row…
The seven most talented disciples of the Nirvana Hall were all cut off by Feng Hanyu, the young master of the Sword Sect. Their veins were severed, their Dantian was shattered, and their spines were severed. Their dignity was trampled to pieces, and they died in despair while bleeding.
.
Next month, it will be the eighth time to worship the mountain and seize the sword!
It is also the ninth year since Ying Wuya was defeated!
Whenever this happens, it will attract the attention of the entire sect.
The accumulation of failures, the accumulation of shame, and the trampling of dignity caused the people in the other four halls of the sect to have no hope at all in the Nirvana Hall.
Even "worshiping the mountain to seize the sword" has already become a joke in the eyes of others.
…
The Three Piaomiao Palaces!
The third elder stood at the door of the hall, looking at the dark sky, thoughtfully.
"The eighth time to worship the mountain and seize the sword in Nirvana Hall, there is not much time left..." The third elder clenched the scepter in his hand, then turned around and looked into the main hall, "I should also make... the final decision.
