In the dark void, countless stars, large and small, float quietly, emitting bright or dim light, distant and long-lasting, as if they have never changed.
But Wu Jie knows that for immortals with great powers, stars actually have a lifespan. And many small worlds that look like stars may not be as old as those powerful ones.
For example, the clouds shrouded in misty green light in the distance are a world that has just appeared.
"The Green Scythe Secret Realm..." Wu Jie looked at the cloud of gas from a distance and couldn't help but sigh.
A powerful immortal king, what is left in the end is this cloud. Even from the outside, it doesn't seem that big.
"Well, that's the Green Sickle Secret Realm. Even though it looks inconspicuous from the outside, it's actually very vast inside. Even if Yang Shen Zhenxian flew for ten or eight years, he might not be able to fly from one side to the other." Han, who had been there before.
De said, "But it is also full of dangers. If you are not careful, you can get injured or even die. I stayed there for more than a month, and I vomited blood seven or eight times. I looked for a place to recuperate for 12 days, a total of three times."
The thin line between life and death..."
He shook his head and sighed: "This Green Scythe Secret Realm is indeed a good place for training, but it is also too dangerous. Even if we, the sword cultivators, want to find a chance between life and death, we can use this to sharpen ourselves and keep improving bravely.
Going to this place to hone your skills is really a bit much.”
"You know, I was only there for a month and witnessed the death of two Yang God True Immortals. The Green Scythe Secret Realm is so huge, the area I can see is simply not worth mentioning... Since its appearance, the former
There are probably more than 200 true immortals who have died inside."
Wu Jie's hair went down when he heard it - two hundred Yang Shen true immortals just fell into the Green Scythe Secret Realm without even causing a big movement.
Even with all the wealth of the Yujing sect, they can't gather so many Yangshen true immortals.
"Then, what if True Lord Dongxu goes in?" He calmed down and asked.
Hande replied: "So far, I haven't heard that True Lord Dongxu died inside - or maybe someone has died inside, but his relatives, friends and sect have hidden the news. After all, True Lord Dongxu is a
The loss of every pillar of a sect is a big deal, and for some small sects, it is as serious as the sky falling. So they will try their best to hide the news as long as they can."
Wu Jie nodded in understanding and was about to ask something more when King Cang Lei's voice suddenly sounded: "No need to ask, six True Lords of Dongxu and 395 Yangshen died in this Green Sickle Secret Realm.
True Immortal... Oh, it's three hundred and ninety-six now. Another one died when I just spoke. As for those under the Yangshen, I am too lazy to break down and count them. In total, there are always eight thousand.
Bar."
Wu Jie and Hande immediately stared at each other with their eyes wide open. No matter how much they imagined, they never expected that there would be so many monks who died in the Green Sickle Secret Realm.
"How come... there are so many?"
"What's so strange about this?" King Cang Lei said nonchalantly, "The legacy left by an immortal heavenly king after his death is certainly worthy of those juniors risking their lives for. You know, even though so many people have died, they still have the opportunity.
There are not a few. For example...oh, you can't see it. There is a True Lord Dongxu who has had the opportunity to attack the immortal realm."
Wu Jie and Hande immediately turned their heads in the direction of the Green Sickle Secret Realm, trying to see something. However, what they saw was only a misty green cloud, and nothing else could be seen.
"Haha, this kid is very lucky. The most difficult level has been passed, and the rest is just hard work. It will probably take a hundred thousand years to stabilize the state. He actually succeeded in passing the level so easily. He is really lucky.
Powerful... I would like to get closer to him in the future, and I might as well get some luck."
Wu Jie was silent for a while and sighed: "With such an opportunity right in front of us, it's no wonder so many fellow Taoists risk their lives to fight for it."
"Hey, if you die, what's the use of chance?" Han De sneered, "Anyway, I won't come here again before I become the True Monarch of Dongxu. I will at least wait until I have some confidence before I can try my luck again.
."
"This is a good idea. On the road to the great road, the most important thing is to be able to go step by step. It is not worth taking the risk of falling for the sake of speed." King Cang Lei said approvingly, "If we encounter a bottleneck that cannot be broken through,
, it is reasonable to have a fight out of desperation. But both of you are from the Five Great Divine Pills. At least before you become a true king and open up the world, there shouldn't be too big a bottleneck. Why take unnecessary risks?
Wu Jie and Han De looked at each other, stood up at the same time, saluted in the air, and thanked each other.
"Hey, I just said this, you don't need to take it too seriously." King Cang Lei smiled, his huge wings shimmering with lightning fluttered, and flew across the void. After a while, the secret realm of Green Scythe came into view.
It has shrunk into a dim green star, no different from those small stars in the void.
After flying for a few more days, King Cang Lei estimated that he was not far from the Zidian World. He suddenly remembered something and said to Wu Jie: "Little Taoist, I heard Han De say that you went to the Zidian World to find a wife.
of?"
"That's true. I wonder if seniors have any advice?"
"I don't have any advice...but I know some things, so I might as well tell you." King Cang Lei smiled, and suddenly used the method of teleportation with his spiritual thoughts, and used a ray of spiritual thoughts to inform Wu Jie of many news.
Wu Jie only took a moment to read the news, but his face couldn't help but darken.
It turns out that about thirty years ago, the founder of the Purple Lightning Sword Sect, the Purple Lightning Sword Master, failed to attack the immortal realm. Although he is not dead now, his vitality has been extinguished, and he is just relying on his profound cultivation to survive. There are three Dongxu Zhen under his sect.
Jun
, and a junior brother who is in the True Lord realm. It is said that with this formation, it is barely enough to maintain the sect - anyway, the Zidian world is transformed based on the natural small world, and the death of the Zidian Sword Master will not affect
The survival of the entire world...
However, things are not that simple
The oldest person in the Zidian Sword Sect is Qingshuang Sword Lord, the junior disciple of Zidian Sword Master. However, Qingshuang Sword Lord suffered a great blow in the past and became discouraged and became a monk. Now his name is Wushuang.
Ignore worldly affairs. Unless the Zidian Sword Sect is invaded by foreign enemies and reaches a critical moment of life and death, don't expect this old bald man to come out of his little Buddhist hall.
Zidian Sword Master has taken in more than 80 true disciples. Unfortunately, his method of training disciples was too cruel. Each of these disciples was "sharpened" to death. In the end, only three were left, namely Donghua and Tianhua.
and Taihua, the three great true kings.
Among the three true masters, Donghua Sword Master has the highest cultivation level, but in fact his ability to deal with people is not very good. Tianhua Sword Master is a martial arts idiot, and he almost never thinks about anything except pursuing a stronger swordsmanship realm.
Taihua Jianjun relatively has some political talents. For a long time, he has been in charge of various chores of the sect.
According to Wu Jie's idea, in this case, if the Zidian Sword Lord wants to pass on the throne, it should naturally be passed to Taihua Sword Lord, so as to maintain the stability and prosperity of the sect. But the Zidian Sword Lord doesn't think so, he directly takes over as the leader
The position was passed to Donghua Sword Lord, who has the highest level of cultivation.
Among the Purple Lightning Sword Sect, in addition to the three true kings, there are nearly thirty true immortals of Yangshen. These people are divided into two factions. One faction is the registered disciple of the Purple Lightning Sword Master or the Donghua Sword Master.
Most of the disciples tend to support Donghua Sword Lord's succession; the other faction is the disciples of the other tributaries, as well as the elders and guests who have joined the sect one after another. These people either have a better relationship with Taihua Sword Lord, or they are not
He doesn't like Donghua Sword Lord and opposes his succession.
Because of this, a civil war broke out between the leader faction and the Presbyterian faction.
Originally, if the Purple Lightning Sword Lord succeeded in breaking through, with his Immortal Lord's cultivation, he could easily suppress both sides. Whoever he said would inherit can inherit. The elders dared to question his decision? He waved
You can kill them all with just a wave of your hand.
But he failed to break through. Although he could still survive for a while, and he could even live for another thousand years, his life was already gone. Now if he uses the immortal strength of half a step beyond the peak of Dongxu, the path of life and death will disappear immediately.
, no luck at all.
Under this situation, Zidian Sword Master could not suppress the elders, and although Donghua Sword Master was very capable, he had no talent that could convince others. Seeing this situation, Zidian Sword Master had no choice but to give in - he
Gather the true immortals of the two factions and let them decide who is suitable to succeed the leader based on their "ability to teach disciples."
If a sect wants to continue its inheritance and flourish, the most important thing is to teach disciples. If you can teach powerful disciples, even if the disciples are stronger than you, the sect will naturally be able to continue to develop. The reason why the Zidian Sword Sect is in such a predicament is because
It's because Zidian Sword Master is not good at teaching his disciples.
So he decided to record the disciples of both sides for a period of one hundred years. After a hundred years, let these disciples compete. Whoever's disciple can laugh at the end will mean who has the ability to teach disciples and is more suitable to be the leader.
In other words, Zidian Sword Master has expanded the scope of qualifications for head candidates to include all Yang Shen True Immortals in the entire Zidian Sword Sect. Any Yang Shen True Immortal can sign up to participate.
Of course, "disciples" only include those who have not yet achieved immortality, and those who have achieved immortality are not included in this list.
This is roughly what happened. The reason why Wu Jie frowned was because he knew very well that in this case, it was absolutely impossible for the Zidian Sword Sect to allow him to take Yin Shuang away.
With Yin Shuang's strength, even if she couldn't achieve immortality within a hundred years, those guys who could achieve immortality within a hundred years at most would definitely not be her opponent.
In other words, Zidian Sword Lord's decision makes Yin Shuang's master Zihua Fairy the most powerful candidate for the headmaster. Even if Zihua Fairy has no intention of becoming the headmaster, Yin Shuang can still succeed in the great battle a hundred years later.
In the competition, he defeated all the favorites of the Presbyterian faction and recommended the disciples of Donghua Sword Lord to win the championship.
This means that the inheritance of the entire Zidian Sword Sect has been decided by Yin Shuang. In this case, the Presbyterian sect may want Yin Shuang to get out, but neither Zihua Fairy nor Donghua Sword Lord will agree.
"What's going on? That Zidian Sword Master actually didn't understand the details of his sect and just gave random orders. His leader is simply incompetent to the extreme." Wu Jie was depressed for a while, and couldn't help but cursed angrily,
“He deserves to fail”
"Among our Divine Sect, there are many leaders who don't care about their own sect." Although Han De didn't know why he suddenly felt so emotional, he persuaded with a smile, "Don't talk about the Purple Lightning Sword Sect, even our Wanbian Sect
, I can’t see my sect master all year round - the last time I achieved immortality and paid homage to him, he didn’t even know what happened..."
"This is too irresponsible"
"That's how Shenmen is. He only cares about himself all day long." Hande shook his head and explained, "After we have been together for a long time, you will get used to it."
Wu Jie sighed, and suddenly his heart moved, and asked: "Senior Cang Lei King, does the Purple Lightning Sword Sect have any rules or taboos? If I go there, how should I get along with them?"
King Cang Lei replied: "I haven't paid attention to the rules and taboos, but I can tell you a principle for getting along with people in Shenmen - if they are polite, you should be polite too; if they are not polite, you should not be polite either; they are fierce
, you are more ruthless than them; if they play tricks, then you just turn against them and use the knife..."
"In a word," Han De said, "I am willing to reason with you, but it does not mean that you have the ability to be unreasonable with me - you should grasp this sentence well. Basically, among our divine sects, this sentence is used.
As a guideline for action, this sentence can never be wrong."
"I'm willing to reason with you, but that doesn't mean you have the ability to be unreasonable with me..." Wu Jie frowned, carefully thought about this sentence several times, and couldn't help but sigh, "In short, you have to do a good job at all times.
Get ready for a fight, right?"
"Yes, if you don't have enough strength, you are not qualified to be reasonable; but as long as you have enough strength, you don't need to be reasonable." Han De said with a smile, "This is the principle of our Shenmen."
"I don't like this theory at all." Wu Jie sighed.
"Whether you like it or not, that's how Shenmen is." Han De said nonchalantly, "This is our way of life, this is our habit of dealing with others. I know you like everyone to sit down and talk, and you like to talk to each other."
Resolve things calmly
Determination, but that is the path you chose, not the path chosen by us in the Shenmen. Especially the Purple Lightning Sword Sect is dominated by sword cultivators, and the characters of the sword cultivators are even more decisive and fiery. If you don't draw the sword all the way,
Mentally prepare yourself for a three-step, one-fight, five-step, one-kill battle. You will suffer a loss when the time comes.
Wu Jie was silent for a long time and sighed: "Okay, I'll prepare well and brew up some murderous intent...
"A little is not enough" King Cang Lei laughed, "Even if it is not very murderous, it must be at least seven or eight points."
"To put it bluntly, you want me to knock down all the people who have objections and then take my wife away, right?
"You finally understand." Han De smiled and took out the wine bottle and handed it to him, "The Purple Lightning World is not far ahead. Have a few drinks to build up your courage, and then fight all the way there."
"There's no need to drink. I never need to drink to strengthen my courage when fighting." Wu Jie smiled, stood up, and stared at a star in the distance that was slowly growing in size.
The star is a planet floating in the sea of stars, surrounded by endless purple lightning. You can tell without looking that that is the destination of his trip, the world of purple lightning.
Cang Lei King did not land in the Zidian World - this Zidian World was not even as big as his wings, and he could not land even if he tried to land - he just used his magical power to send Wu Jie and Hande into the Zidian World.
.
"Little Taoist priest, do you need me to support you?" he asked with a smile.
"If the junior cannot bear it, he must ask for help from the senior." Wu Jie did not show any pretense and answered with a smile, "But the junior still wants to solve the problem with his own ability as much as possible."
"Rely on yourself as much as possible. This is the right way to do things. Then I will sleep outside this purple electric world. When you encounter big trouble, just call my name and I will rush to you immediately.
Come."
"Thank you, senior"
King Cang Lei laughed a few times and then disappeared. Wu Jie and Han De looked at each other and flew into the air. After looking around, they found several monks who had not even achieved immortality. One of them moved to them.
in front of
"We are going to the Zidian Sword Sect, do you know how to get there?" Wu Jie tried his best to look as cold as possible and said gloomily.
Among those monks, the one with the highest level of cultivation was only at the realm of Cai Tianren, and the lowest was only at the realm of Yin Shen. When he felt the unfathomable auras on the two of them, he was so frightened that he even broke out in cold sweat.
The leader hurriedly took out two jade slips, carved two maps with magic power, handed them over respectfully, and said cautiously: "Here is a copy of the map, please accept it, seniors."
Wu Jie nodded slightly and took a map. He remembered the contents of the map in his mind with a sweep of his mind. Then his figure flashed and disappeared without a trace. Han De followed closely behind and took a look at the map.
, and then disappeared, leaving only this group of monks who looked at each other, each and every one of them was terrified.
"Fortunately, the two seniors are easy to talk to..." the leader sighed, "If they had asked us to lead the way, this long-prepared hunt would have been ruined."
The person next to me responded: "Yes, we have spent so much money. If we fail, we will be miserable."
While they were talking, there was a flash of light in the sky, and a steaming red dagger appeared in front of them. This sword contained brilliance and murderous intent. Although it was not a psychic, it exuded an extraordinary aura, which further proved that
It is a sword embryo made of the highest quality materials, and can be easily cultivated into a magical flying sword.
Accompanying the appearance of this sword were Wu Jie's words: "The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, so this sword can be regarded as a reward."
Then Hande's voice came: "You are too kind. I think it is only right to beat them up first and then ask questions."
"I can't afford to waste that time." Wu Jie's voice gradually disappeared, "For me, time is the most important thing."
The monks looked at me and I looked at you. After being stunned for a while, they cheered in unison.
