Chapter 16 Destroying mountains and dividing seas, inheritance of Jinshan
The power of Wu Jie's demon-slaying sword was really incredible. When the sword fell, it was like cutting a fruit, cutting the huge fairy mountain in two.
But even so, the power of this sword has not been exhausted.
Fairy Mountain is not just the part above the water. In fact, most of the entire ruins are located underwater, and the most important treasures are hidden deep. Even if the mountains above the water collapse and break due to natural disasters, it will not
It will cause a devastating blow to the entire ruins.
However, Wu Jie's sword was more deadly than any natural disaster, because it was aimed at the entire fairy mountain ruins. The demon-killing sword was swung out, and under the breath induction, no matter how big the enemy was, it was useless, because in
When the flame is burning, its breath has been completely locked. When all the flames condense into a blade and cut down again, it will be a sure kill!
So when the giant red flame blade slowly slashed down and plunged into the sea water, it had no intention of collapsing or extinguishing. Instead, the light became more intense and dazzling.
The bright red light refracted in the sea water, spreading layer by layer, spreading to a radius of dozens of miles, turning the entire sea surface within sight into a bright red, as if--under the vast sea water, there was something
The fire is burning brightly.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Wu Jie's sword has not yet exhausted its power, and is still slashing along the part of the fairy mountain hidden in the sea water with endless flames.
This fairy mountain has an extraordinary origin. The restrictions in it are not just one layer, but are layered on top of each other, which is simply countless. However, the power of the entire fairy mountain has been transformed into lethality with the sword of killing demons. No matter how powerful those restrictions are, they are meaningless.
It can only slightly slow down the speed of the giant flame blade's slashing, but it cannot stop it from slashing down at all, nor can it change the outcome of its own destruction.
Rays of golden light emerged in the sea water, and layers of golden lotuses bloomed under the giant blade, and then were cut off layer by layer by the red giant blade. The layers broke and collapsed, turning into countless golden lights, floating and rippling in the sea water.
.
These golden lights rise from the sea water from time to time, turning into dense golden mist, rising along the fairy mountain that has been cut in half, wrapping everyone in it. At first, the monks were very careful to use magic to block the golden mist.
Outside the body, just a moment later, a monk with a low level of cultivation who could not block the mist shouted in surprise: "This mist can nourish the soul! My soul has become stronger!"
After hearing the words, everyone hurriedly removed the obstruction and allowed the golden mist to flow into their bodies. Sure enough, as those people said, this golden mist was not only harmless, but was filled with a refreshing fragrance that made people feel calm. If it was there or not, it would be like a clear spring flowing through the heart.
, and as moist as the rain and mist in early spring.
Under the nourishment of the mist, everyone felt that their souls were gradually solidifying. Some people who had just stepped into the realm of Tongyou used the help of the mist to condense their souls into shape, and crossed the "knowing the secluded" and "seeing the secluded" in one step.
"These two links have reached the level of "entering the secluded world", eliminating the need for months to more than ten years of hard work.
The monks got such a benefit, and looked at Wu Jie a little more friendly. They were sure that if Wu Jie hadn't cut off the fairy mountain with his great magical power, everyone would never have gotten this opportunity... Maybe, if it hadn't been for him
, you may only see the top layer of ruins in the end, and there is no way to discover the layers hidden below.
Wu Jie naturally smelled the fragrance and felt the miraculous effect of the golden mist on nourishing the soul. He couldn't help but admire slightly in his heart, full of admiration for the senior masters who originally arranged the fairy mountain.
But before he could express his feelings, Jasmine spoke first.
"Hey, this is a good idea!"
Wu Jie curled his lips and ignored her.
"Since you find that you can't stop the enemy, then change your thinking, turn the thunder into rain and dew, and show kindness to the opponent. If the person coming is a member of the evil sect, then this moistening rain and mist is also a powerful means of fending off the enemy; and if
He is a man of the right path, and since he has benefited from him, he cannot finish the matter later, he must leave a glimmer of it - and then his goal will be achieved."
"Ah? So complicated?!" Du Ruo's eyes widened in surprise, "Although I don't quite understand it, it seems to be very powerful!"
"Of course, surviving in defeat leaves the last glimmer of hope for the inheritance of the sect. This method is really good! The person who originally arranged this fairy mountain can be regarded as a wise man even in our era.
"Yes." Jasmine nodded her head in approval, "What a pity! No matter how high his intelligence is, it is only in vain. If he can cultivate into the Immortal Yang God and pass on the sect by himself, why bother with such small tricks!"
"That's right!"
"So, for us cultivators, our own cultivation is the foundation. Everything else, whether it is intelligence, courage, treasures, or popularity, everything is empty."
These words made sense. Not only did Du Ruo nod his head thoughtfully, but even Wu Jie couldn't help but nod in his heart.
Jasmine is worthy of being an immortal demon god. Although she seems very unreliable at ordinary times, she has already reached a high place on the road of spiritual practice that Wu Jie must look up to. When she seriously gives guidance on spiritual practice, she really has a commanding position, which makes her
People’s eyes light up!
"Now of course we have seen through his tricks, so Master, you must not fall into his trap again. If you eat the bait, just throw the hook out."
Wu Jie smiled slightly: "Since I have benefited from him, I should accept some favors from him."
"That's not okay! He didn't give this benefit voluntarily, but he was forced to hand it over because you had no way out. This is equivalent to taking it with your own strength. What kind of favor can you accept?
?”
"If it insists on not giving it, can I get this benefit?"
"Then it's over!"
"But it can indeed be broken up in two. Would you rather destroy yourself than give up the benefits?"
Jasmine immediately shook her head: "Master, you don't want to think like this! Those who pursue the road must put themselves first. It is natural to receive benefits. There is no need to express gratitude, let alone accept any favors.
!”
"This is your idea, not mine."
"This is your original teaching!"
"The Supreme God took the wrong path back then. Haven't we already determined this a long time ago?"
Jasmine was stunned for a moment and sighed deeply.
It can be seen that she does not agree with Wu Jie's statement. But compared to the noisy past, this is already a big improvement.
The meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step. Wu Jie believes that as her cultivation continues to deepen, and as Jasmine's horizons continue to broaden, this world that is completely different from the era of the Supreme God King will definitely make her change
Inherent ideas, correct those wrong concepts!
Perhaps by that time, Jasmine will be able to step out of the shadow of the Supreme God King, and even reach a height that is no less than that of the Supreme God King in the past...
As he spoke, the giant red flame blade had already cut through the last layer of the fairy mountain ruins. As the obstacle in front of the blade completely disappeared, the intent of the blade that had been condensed lost its target and finally collapsed.
This knife is so huge that if it completely disintegrates, it will probably completely boil the sea water in the nearby area. Wu Jie and others are on it, and they will inevitably be washed by the boiling water vapor, just like the steamed buns in the steamer. He
Of course, he didn't want to enjoy the treatment of Baozi, so with a thought, he not only did not put away his sword intention, but doubled his strength to spread the sword as far as possible.
In an instant, the crimson light quickly extended across the seafloor. It was unknown how far it extended until it reached a place where even Wu Jie's eyesight could no longer see. It could no longer be maintained and collapsed into countless fragments.
The next moment, the seawater vaporized by the scorching heat suddenly spurted out, and the endless white steam formed a line along the direction of the red sword light. At the position of this line, the seawater was pushed away by the steam. From a distance, it looked like
It was like the vast sea was cut in half by the red light of this sword!
Everyone was dazzled and speechless for a moment.
The power of this sword has reached such an extent!
After a while, the heat of the red sword light was exhausted, the white steam stopped rising, and the sea surface closed again, returning to its previous appearance. A sea breeze blew by, and the steam dissipated, as if nothing happened.
But the spectacular scene of cutting off the fairy mountain and splitting the sea with a sword just now has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of every monk who saw this scene!
Because they were frightened by the power of Wu Jie's sword, in the subsequent "dividing the spoils" session, the casual cultivators behaved very politely and honestly. They followed Wu Jie's lead completely and agreed to whatever he said without any questioning or objection.
This fairy mountain is extremely huge, and there are many things stored in the ruins on the upper and lower floors. Normally, it would have been a bloody storm, and I don't know how many people would have died. But this time it went very smoothly, without causing any trouble. With Wu
Compared with the shocking sword that can be solved, any magical weapon or elixir pales in comparison and makes people uninterested.
So things progressed very smoothly - the masters of steelmaking went deep into the fairy mountain along the crack opened by Wu Jie, and brought the treasures up in a steady stream, and then Wu Jie separated a large part of them first
——This is for other sects. Their disciples were attacked here for no reason, and even lost their lives. Of course, the murderers cannot escape, but it is unjustifiable if they are not left with a share when the immortal mountain divides the treasure.
.
After dividing this "pension", Wu Jie inspected the jade slips that recorded the exercises, put away two of them, and allowed the rest to be freely copied and copied by the casual cultivators.
These two jade slips record not martial arts, but many ancient events. Many of them involve the three sects of Qingyang, Baidi, and Chixia, and some can be regarded as sect secrets, which are naturally not enough for outsiders to understand.
.
As for the elixirs and magic weapons in the Immortal Mountain, Wu Jie only gave a small portion to the casual cultivators.
This is not because he is stingy, but because the benefits that the casual cultivators have received are enough, and it can even be said that they have been given too much! If more benefits are given to them, it will easily breed their greedy mentality and provoke them.
Necessary trouble.
Seeing countless treasures being collected by Wu Jie and Tao Tu, it was naturally impossible for the casual cultivators not to be jealous or jealous. However, after thinking about it, they could only sigh with bitterness on their faces.
If the disciples of each sect had been willing to discuss it carefully when they came over, these elixirs and magic weapons would have been theirs, and maybe even half of them were theirs - in the past, most of the disciples of the major sects would hunt for treasures with casual cultivators.
Distribute according to this ratio.
But because of greed, they wanted to take all the treasures for themselves, and finally ended up like this.
The elixirs and magic weapons that Wu Jie handed over were not transferred randomly, but were for those who had relatives and friends who died while exploring the ruins. In other words, this was also a pension.
If it weren't for my own greed, at least the amount of this pension should be much larger!
"Senior Brother, is it really okay to do this?" As he was putting away countless treasures like water, Tao Tuo asked with no confidence, "The look in their eyes makes them look as if they are extremely hungry...
"
"No problem." Wu Jie smiled and said politely, "Many of the techniques in this Immortal Mountain can be loaded into the second level of Tibetan Buddhism. It is already a great benefit for them to be able to obtain these. Besides,
If they are not satisfied, I don’t mind using a knife to help them wake up.”
"But... we took too much, right?"
"Not much. It's a courtesy. Do you think if they had won just now, they would have given us the treasure?"
"Probably not."
"That's right." Wu Jie nodded and continued to collect countless treasures. He thought for a while and then said: "Don't look at them like this. In fact, I bet you that many people are stealing in secret.
Added to the results of previous explorations, probably one-fifth of the entire Fairy Mountain ruins fell into their hands."
"But that's not much..."
"It's not much compared to this fairy mountain, but compared to ordinary expeditions, it's already a huge gain." Wu Jie snorted coldly, "If you don't believe me, you can take a closer look. I bet many of them will.
Deliberately avoiding your eyes."
Tao Tu followed what he said and looked at the casual cultivators carefully. As expected, many people turned their heads and did not dare to look at him.
"Eh?! Senior brother, how did you know this would happen?"
"This is normal. People who steal things are always afraid of being caught on the spot." Wu Jie couldn't help laughing, "Junior brother, don't think of these old Jianghu as kind people. If they hadn't already gotten enough,
The benefits, do you think they would really give up so honestly?" Tao Tu
Suddenly realized. "However, people's hearts are always dissatisfied. If it weren't for my force to suppress them, they would only be greedy and loot all the treasures away. They might even fight for the treasures - it is very likely that Bai Shi here
Of those who come, less than half will leave alive in the end."
"ah?!"
"So you think about it, this time they got some treasures and good skills, and they didn't have to fight to the death to fight for it... At least for most monks, this result is far better than if we didn't show up and just let it go...
It would be better for them to come up with the result themselves."
At this point, Wu Jie changed the topic and said: "Junior brother, do you know why this matter ended like this?"
"Because, Senior Brother, you are very capable!"
"So, what if you had the ability like me back then?"
"How is that possible..."
"Junior brother! The word 'impossible' is just for mortals to talk about. We are monks who violate the principles of the cycle of heaven and earth and pursue immortality. The word 'impossible' is not in our dictionary.
It exists!”
"But……"
"Don't say 'but', after that battle, Junior Brother Yi and Junior Brother Yan both practiced in seclusion, and even Junior Brother Le did the same, right?"
"yes."
"And you?"
Tao Tu thought for a while and finally understood what Wu Jie meant.
"I understand! After returning to the mountain, I will practice hard in seclusion!"
Wu Jie patted his shoulder and smiled.
"Your skills naturally outlast us, which is a good thing. But while you live a long life, you can't slack off because of it! It should be noted that most monks in this world do not die of longevity, but die of fighting!"
After awakening this junior brother who was the laziest among the twenty-seventh generation of disciples, Wu Jie's goals for this trip were all accomplished.
At dawn the next day, they returned to Qingyang Mountain with countless treasures.
After the treasures were sent to the treasure house, Wu Jie brought the two jade slips that recorded many secrets to meet the master.
"The things recorded on these two jade slips are very special." The master took the jade slips, glanced at them, his brows twitched, showing a little surprise, "There are also special cipher words in them, which is really unexpected.
!”
"Secret text?" Wu Jie was stunned and asked curiously, "What needs to be recorded in cipher text?"
"It's about the origin of the ruins... This ruins is actually left by the Jinshan lineage that was originally known as Qingyang, Baidi, Chixia, and Black Earth." The headmaster's words were shocking, but he didn't make much of it.
Wu Jie was surprised.
The person who knows so many secrets must be a figure within the Taoist sect in ancient times. After much deliberation, in short, it is nothing more than the descendant of the Five Sons of Shenshan.
"Then why did the Jinshan lineage leave this relic?"
"Actually, it's not surprising - the battle between good and evil was at its peak at that time, and sects were often wiped out entirely. So both the righteous and the demonic sects were trying to leave something that could help pass on. In this way, even if the sect is now
It has been destroyed for the time being, but there may be a day when it can be restored again in the future.”
Wu Jie nodded: "I remember that the Supreme Patriarch said that our Qingyang Temple also had its clan temporarily wiped out."
"Yes... the sect may be temporarily extinct, but as long as the inheritance is still there, as long as the skills have not been lost, sooner or later there will be a day when it will be revived again." The eyes of the real leader are a bit distant, as if they have passed through endless years.
, looking at each other from a distance with the ancestors of the ancient times...
