Time flies, spring passes and autumn comes again.
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed since Liang Yan and others entered Longyuan Cave Mansion.
In the past three years, many major events have occurred in the capital of Yue State. The change of power between the DPRK and China has brought about bloody storms. Fortunately, after everything passed, everything calmed down and the capital returned to its former order.
Three years may be a long time in the world, but in this ancient tomb, it seems to be just the blink of an eye.
In this quiet and dark tomb, nothing seems to have changed.
Although it was already early spring, there was still a slight chill in the air. In the imperial mausoleum in the capital, a rickety old man over sixty years old was walking among the tombstones.
This is the burial place of successive emperors of the Yue Kingdom and the final destination of future emperors.
And this old man is also a descendant of the Liu family, who is responsible for cleaning the imperial tomb.
He didn't clean carefully, he just swept away some dirt at random, and then moved to the next tomb area.
There, he saw a huge pothole, and his thoughts suddenly returned to three years ago. That day he came to the imperial mausoleum to clean as usual, but unexpectedly discovered the pothole.
"What a sin!" The old man shook his head and said, "Three years ago, my family, the Liu family, was in a state of turmoil. Even my own royal mausoleum was dug into. I was simply deceived."
Naturally, the old man would not know that in fact, this so-called robbery hole was just a road he forcibly carved out after he regained his freedom.
The old man sighed, but then there was a smile on his face, and he said to himself: "Fortunately, the new emperor has ascended the throne, stabilized the imperial power, and pacified the world. It can be said that he did not embarrass our Liu family."
Thinking of this, he became excited for a moment, reached out and untied the wine gourd from his waist, and took a small sip in the cold spring breeze.
"Ah, good wine!" The old man smiled slightly, his two small eyes narrowed into a thin line.
But the next moment, his eyes suddenly opened again, as if he saw something unbelievable.
"What's going on?" The old man rubbed his eyes, then stared straight ahead.
I saw a few cracks suddenly opened on a piece of mountain ground in front of me, and in the cracks, there was a faint golden light!
"Could it be that the ancestor showed up?"
Thinking of this, the old man suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Although he thought he was very courageous, he was still in a cemetery after all, and he couldn't help but be afraid of such a strange thing happening.
However, before he could figure it out, the cracks on the ground became bigger and bigger, and the golden light coming from them became stronger and stronger.
Boom!
With a muffled sound coming from deep underground, the mountain suddenly collapsed, and then a golden beam of light broke out of the ground and shot straight up into the sky!
"What!"
The rickety old man was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground and wanted to run away, but he couldn't even move his legs.
Because he actually heard a dragon's roar from the golden light pillar, and this roar directly resounded in his heart, making him feel the desire to surrender.
At this time, a figure was heard shouting loudly in the golden light:
"The green chi is dancing on the green chi lantern, and the mysteries are involved in the mysterious cave. I have to endure the hardships of being born in the mortal world for a hundred years, and once I ride on a dragon, I can conquer the nine heavens!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light in the sky gradually dissipated, revealing a figure in mid-air.
This man was wearing a red official robe, tall and thin, with a pale face. He had a strange beast with a dragon head and a fish body under his feet. He was shaking his head and tail in mid-air, and seemed to be swimming quite happily.
"Immortals are immortals!" The old man looked at the figure in mid-air in astonishment, trembling even as he spoke.
The man in the air looked down at him, smiled slightly, and raised his hand to flick his sleeves.
A sharp spring breeze blew in his face, and the old man felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and finally he dozed off on the spot.
Just as he fell asleep, the surface of the imperial mausoleum shook again, and then a black figure broke out of the ground, touched lightly in mid-air, and stopped on a big tree.
This person's appearance has no momentum at all, but there is an aura that is as immovable as a mountain, which is hidden and invisible on his body.
"Hahaha!" The man who came out first laughed loudly, hugged his fists at the man on the tree and said, "Fellow Daoist Duan is really talented. I didn't expect that when we meet again in three years, you will already be a monk in the Juyuan Realm.
Got it!"
Duan raised his head and looked at the man in the air, with a trace of surprise in his eyes. After a while, he said: "It is said that the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each with different characteristics. Among them, the eighth-ranked Chiki has a dragon head and a fish body, which can swallow mountains and rivers. It has wonderful functions.
Wu Fang. It seems that your Excellency has not only restored your cultivation this time, but has also gone a step further and given birth to a dragon child!"
"Haha, fellow Daoist Dumb is indeed well-informed. The little beast under He's step is indeed Chiki." He Yunling said with a slight smile.
While the two were talking, suddenly there was another muffled sound coming from the ground, causing them to turn their heads and look at the same time.
On a piece of land with a radius of ten feet, many spider web-like cracks suddenly appeared, and then a black sword energy broke through the ground, cutting all the surrounding vegetation and rocks into powder!
"What a strong sword energy!"
He Yunling touched his chin, with a look of surprise on his face.
Even though he has now recovered his cultivation level in the early stage of Jin Dan, this black sword energy really surprised him.
"Congratulations, I didn't expect to see you again in three years. Fellow Daoist Liang has already crossed that threshold and become a veritable Juyuan Realm monk!" He Yunling looked at the last figure coming out of the tomb with a smile on his face.
said.
Liang Yan raised his head and glanced at him, smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Liang's little moral skills are really nothing compared to his predecessors!"
"Why do you have to be so humble, Fellow Daoist Liang? Although you are only at the early stage of the Juyuan Realm, your real strength is probably comparable to that of a monk in the 'Fake Pill Realm'. Ordinary Juyuan Realm monks may not be able to stop you.
A light blow!" He Yunling praised sincerely.
Liang Yan smiled noncommittally. In fact, he had broken through the threshold of the Juyuan Realm two years ago. Not only did his spiritual power become more pure, but he also accidentally made the three spiritual powers in the body more harmonious and mutually beneficial.
There is actually a very tacit sense of balance between them.
Some of the problems that had troubled him before were solved, and his strength improved by leaps and bounds.
The most important thing is that in the remaining two years, he used the remaining dragon essence in the cave and the "Red Dust Creation Array" he had arranged in advance, using the entire capital as a melting pot, and finally opened up the "Tao Sword Sutra"
The second meridian: Beiming Immortal Vein.
The training of this meridian can greatly shorten the time for him to cultivate the sword embryo, which means that the day when his Mayfly Sword will be unsheathed is not far away.
