Lying between Liangyi Pond and Tiangang Pond is a barrier like a black curtain.
This barrier does not prevent other sword cultivators from entering, and there is no impact on traveling back and forth.
Rather than saying that this barrier is blocking the entry of sword cultivators, it is better to say that it is blocking the spread of demonic energy in Liangyi Pond.
Yes.
Even other monks who cannot enter the Sword Washing Pond know that there is a lot of demonic energy permeating the Liangyi Pond.
Unless you are a person with a strong enough will here, you will easily be affected by the inner demons and eventually become crazy - this is already the luckiest end for those who lack strength or willpower, and even more so in these two situations.
He went crazy in Yichi, and eventually lost all his cultivation, turning into white bones lying in the Liangyi Pond.
Many people believe that the reason why the barrier between Liangyi Pond and Tiangang Pond is an ominous black color is because it is the result of continuous erosion by endless demonic energy.
And what is the truth?
No one knows.
But now!
The black barrier that straddles the two regions is constantly fading.
At a speed visible to the naked eye!
Zhu Yuan and Nai Yue were hovering in mid-air on flying swords.
Their faces were full of shock and horror.
"This...this is..."
"What happened?"
The two of them subconsciously exclaimed due to the trembling in their hearts.
At this time, the changes in the barrier have become so obvious that not only Zhu Yuan and Nai Yue can see it, but all the sword cultivators who are still staying in Tiangang Pond and Liangyi Pond can clearly see the rich and intense color on this barrier.
The undissolved black demonic energy has completely disappeared.
"Click——"
"Kaka——"
There was a crisp cracking sound.
Cracks invisible to the naked eye are densely covered in the barrier, and are spreading at an alarming rate.
"Boom——"
The sound of bursting like a bubble resounded in the hearts of all the sword cultivators - not only the sword cultivators staying in the Liangyi Pond and Tiangang Pond areas, but also almost all the sword cultivators still in the secret area of the Xijian Pond.
This slight sound was heard at this moment.
Everyone felt a creepy feeling at this moment.
An inexplicable sense of fear arose in everyone's hearts.
"Someone released the things that were banned in Liangyi Pond..." Zhu Yuan murmured softly, "Let's go!"
"But..." There was still hesitation on Nai Yue's face.
"That's not something we can deal with!" Zhu Yuan shouted, "Let's go!"
…
"Walk!"
The middle-aged man wearing the attire of Ziyun Jiange Sect roared: "Quickly leave!"
"Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
Su Anran's lips opened and closed, but the sound that came out was not Su Anran's.
Instead, it was a deep and hoarse voice with a unique magnetic charm.
It's a bit like what later generations would call a cigarette and alcoholic voice, and it's also a bit like a hoarse voice caused by injuries to the vocal cords, but very subtly, there is a certain sultry charm in the voice.
The expressions of the man in dark green shirt and Lin Jinna have completely changed.
He became even more frightened than when he saw Su Anran falling into a demon state.
The color on his face completely disappeared almost in an instant.
"Seize... seize the body..."
"Heh." Su Anran smiled.
Su Anran's appearance is of a relatively delicate type. Although he feels quite sunny, it is really difficult to apply words such as "handsome" and "mighty" to him. Certain requirements are more difficult.
For women who strictly control their appearance, Su Anran can only be considered in the category of "not ugly". But perhaps because of his cultivation, he has a very unique temperament, which makes him more delicate.
His appearance has also become somewhat extraordinary.
But overall, his facial features are still relatively strong, and he has a very typical male face.
But at this moment, when the corners of his mouth were raised slightly, and his face and eyes were full of gentle smiles, several people present still felt a very unique charm.
It is a kind of soft beauty that is difficult to describe.
"The sky is clear and the earth is turbid! The four seasons are as ordered!" The young man in a dark green gown suddenly shouted loudly, "Banned!"
Between heaven and earth, a unique breath suddenly came.
The breath makes people feel relaxed and there is a warm feeling in the body.
At this moment, Lin Jinna, the Confucian disciple in the dark green gown, and the middle-aged man from Ziyun Jiange all felt a surge of pride in their hearts. For a moment, they no longer felt cold hands and feet, and the evil aura emanating from Su Anran was also suppressed.
A lot of them were dispersed.
They even smelled the fragrance of ink.
Brilliant golden rays of light burst out from the ground one after another.
There are eight channels in total.
Four of them shot out from Su Anran's front, back, left, and right, representing the four directions.
The other four burst out from four oblique positions, but the distance is slightly wider, forming a distinction between inside and outside - the inner circle is four golden light pillars representing the square, and the outer circle is
Represents four oblique golden light pillars.
The further up the golden light beam goes, the darker the color becomes.
When it reaches the top, it almost appears black.
The eight golden lights resonate with each other.
Completely seal the surrounding space to form an extremely stable special space.
This should be the so-called backup plan of the young man in dark green shirt.
The magic circle he set up here was obviously not just the one used to trap Su Anran and make him become a demon by guiding the demonic energy. He also fully considered that after Su Anran became a demon and lost his mind, he used Confucianism to
Haoran Zhengqi came to seal Su Anran's second level magic circle.
"Haoran is righteous?" Su Anran, who seemed to have been deprived of his body in the eyes of several people, was frowning slightly at this time, "Although only sword cultivators can enter the Sword Washing Pond, there is no point in entering if you are not a sword cultivator...
It seems that you have been lying in wait here for a long time."
Seeing that "Su Anran" didn't do anything special, the young man in a dark green shirt stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
But he still didn't dare to relax at all.
He has a very clear understanding of his own strength, so he doesn't think he can trap the female devil who took Su Anran's body here for long.
At this time, all he needs is just an opportunity to "communicate".
"Your Majesty, I have something to tell you."
"Huo An, are you crazy!?" The middle-aged man in Ziyun Jiange shouted with a look of horror, "While your magic circle is trapping him now, we should leave here immediately! When she gets out of trouble, we will all
Damn it!"
"Shut up!" Lin Jinna turned her head and glared at the middle-aged man.
She already understood the intention of the young man in dark green shirt.
"Your Majesty, we don't have any ill intentions..." Lin Jinna said, but she seemed to feel that it was unconvincing to trap this female devil with such a powerful and righteous magic circle, so she changed her words and said: "We
It's not against you... We just have some personal grudge against the body you took away from us."
"Oh?" Su Anran raised an eyebrow, "Private grudge?"
"Your Majesty, you don't know something." Lin Jinna said, "This Su Anran has done many evil things. All the secret realms he has entered will eventually be destroyed by him. He has made gods and ghosts hate him in the Xuan Realm, so the Xuan Realm monks say
It's a 'natural disaster'. And this time he entered the secret realm of the Sword Washing Pond with the intention of destroying the secret realm of the Sword Washing Pond. I and the others couldn't stand it, so they set up an ambush for him."
"Then what does this have to do with inducing him to become possessed?"
"We... are not in a position to take action directly." The Confucian disciple named Huo An looked a little ugly, "The master of this beast is the head of the five emperors of the Xuan Realm. This is why Su Anran dares to run rampant in the world.
.So if we lead him into a demon and make him commit murder, all the sword cultivators in this secret territory will be witnesses. When the time comes, they will attack him in groups and kill him, then it will have nothing to do with us."
"Ha." Su Anran glanced at Huo An, and then smiled again, "As expected of a disciple of Jixia Academy. Using the Xuanjie as a chessboard and all the cultivators as pawns, this method of killing with a borrowed sword is still as skillful as ever."
Huo An's smile was a little forced and embarrassing: "It is a last resort to make His Holiness laugh."
"Your Majesty," Lin Jinna said with deep affection, "Su Anran's master is unscrupulous, and all his senior sisters are also unreasonable lunatics. If you take him away now, you are tantamount to turning against Taiyi."
Gu, they will definitely not let you go. If you fall into the hands of Taiyi Gu, I'm afraid..."
There was a hesitant look on her face, as if she had something to say but didn't dare to say it clearly. After a slight pause, she showed a brave and righteous expression and said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid that you will be crushed by Taiyigu by then.
Hui, if this happens, the soul that you managed to escape from will be completely...dissipated. The Valley Master of Taiyi Valley, the master of Su Anran, is after all the strongest person in the world."
Having said this, the middle-aged man from Ziyun Jiange finally came to his senses no matter how bad his mind was.
It's no problem to seduce Su Anran.
It would be no problem for Su Anran to become a demon.
In other words, in these two situations, letting Su Anran become a demon is the best result.
Because if you become a demon, you can still be rescued, but once you become a demon, you will never be able to be rescued again - there are still some hidden dangers if Su Anran is killed by the Hidden Sword Pavilion when he is possessed.
Yes, after all, Taiyi Gu really doesn’t care.
If Su Anran goes crazy, the human race will definitely not be able to bear it; but if Su Anran degenerates into a demon, then it is justifiable for the Hidden Sword Pavilion to kill him. Even though Wanjian Tower, Wandao Palace and Taiyi Valley are relatively close, in this case
It is impossible to support Taiyi Gu.
It can be said that if Taiyi Valley really wants to cause trouble with the Hidden Sword Pavilion by then, it will be completely alone and will be attacked by the entire Xuanjie.
But if Su Anran was taken away...
Then they lured Su Anran into Liangyi Pond, causing Su Anran to be taken away from the three families, and the consequences would be very serious.
Not saying what will happen next, but one thing they can predict is that if Hidden Sword Pavilion does not want to be included in the ranks of evil heretics, then Hidden Sword Pavilion will definitely be the first to turn its back and remove itself from this matter.
If the three people don't want to become victims in such an unexplained way, then they naturally have common interests.
Let alone Lin Jinna, what she did must be the origin of the evil thoughts sword energy.
But Huo An and the middle-aged man from Ziyun Jiange are both bound by family members, especially Huo An, who is a Confucian disciple, and should not appear here at this time, so they naturally have to find a way.
Escape from the current desperate situation.
Su Anran raised her eyebrows: "Oh? What's your advice?"
"I don't take advice seriously." Lin Jinna said, "I just have a way, maybe you can try it."
"Talk about it."
Lin Jinna looked at Huo An, who immediately understood what she meant, and immediately said: "I... know a senior from the Hidden Sword Pavilion... This Hidden Sword Pavilion is the sect responsible for the secret realm of the Sword Washing Pond..."
The second half of the sentence is Huo An explaining the status of the Hidden Sword Pavilion to Su Anran.
Lin Jinna did not speak.
She is from the Zuodao Sect, and she came this time because of the invitation from the Peeping Immortal Alliance.
But she knew that Huo An and the middle-aged man from Ziyun Sword Pavilion were both members of the Peeping Immortal Alliance, and they represented the Peeping Immortal Alliance. And this time, the Peeping Immortal Alliance not only convinced them of the Fengjian Sect, but also the Peeping Immortal Alliance.
Hidden Sword Pavilion - If Hidden Sword Pavilion had not done some tricks, neither Fengjian Sect nor Huo An would have been able to enter the secret realm of Sword Washing Pond - so Lin Jinna believed that Huo An must have a way to contact Hidden Sword Pavilion.
But what Lin Jinna didn't expect was that Huo An's words actually revealed that the owner of the village, one of the fifteen immortals of the Peeping Immortal Alliance, was a big shot in the Hidden Sword Pavilion!
After a while, Huo An finished talking about his plan.
Of course, Lin Jinna also added some from the side.
Su Anran nodded clearly: "So according to what you want, if I want to really escape, I have to cooperate with you in a play, so that Su Anran's appearance of being a demon is completely exposed in front of everyone, and then you can
Inform the elder of the Hidden Sword Pavilion that he is pretending to take action, and then I will escape and leave, letting Su Anran die at the hands of the other party, and you will find a new body for me?"
"Yes." Huo An nodded, "This is the only way. Otherwise, if the owner of Taiyi Valley comes, the Venerable may not be able to escape... Of course, we are not talking about the Venerable.
My strength is not good, but... you have just taken possession of the body, so I am afraid it will be difficult for you to fully display your strength."
"Indeed." Su Anran nodded, "I can only use about half of my strength... However, since you know that I am the one who seizes the body, you should know that if I leave my body again in a short period of time,
It’s very likely that I’ll be driven out of my mind.”
At this point, Su Anran's face turned cold, and the aura on his body suddenly exploded. Huo An blocked Su Anran's eight golden light beams and exploded immediately: "You dare to play tricks on me!"
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
The three of them were filled with grief and begged for mercy one after another.
The moment Su Anran's aura burst out, completely destroying the eight golden beams of light, Lin Jinna and Huo An realized that the Su Anran in front of them had already reached a cultivation level that was close to the Taoist realm. And this was actually just the opponent.
It is only half as strong as it was in its heyday. So if the other party is in its heyday, what would its strength be like? In the sea of suffering? Or has it... reached the other side?
But what frightened them even more was why such a powerful person was sealed in the two ritual pools?
"Your Majesty, we mean to let Su Anran die in the hands of the Hidden Sword Pavilion elder, but we have not said when. We can completely use the secret method of Chen Cang to let you enter the Hidden Sword Pavilion to cultivate for a period of time, and wait until you
When your soul is completely recovered and able to leave the body again, we will kill Su Anran... After all, it will take some time for us to find a suitable body for you."
This time it was Lin Jinna who spoke.
As the Fengjian Sect, which is now known as the Evil Fate Sword Sect by the outside world, finding a suitable body is naturally not a problem.
"I see." Su Anran raised her eyebrows, her anger dissipated, and she looked obviously moved.
This facial expression made Lin Jinna feel reassured.
She has been certain that the compatibility between Su Anran's body and the unknown soul inside is definitely not high. Of course, even if the compatibility is not bad, the gender issue is still quite obvious, so if there is a choice
, the other party will definitely choose a female body instead of the male Su Anran.
"I wonder what you call your venerable master? And why he was banned here?"
"Me?" Su Anran glanced at Lin Jinna, the corner of her mouth raised slightly, "I cut off half of my soul to temper my natal flying sword. As a result, I became obsessed with the evil spirit. I became jealous and ended up killing the senior brother of my lineage.
, and even killed senior sister.”
Lin Jinna and the three of them had cold hands and feet.
This is also a ruthless person.
"Ahem..." In the end, Huo An coughed lightly, breaking the atmosphere of silence and death, "Cultivation is difficult and dangerous, and it is never voluntary to become possessed. The Venerable is not to blame for this. Fortunately, the Venerable separated half of his soul.
Hidden here, you have today's recovery. This is a chance for a new life given to you by the heaven."
"As expected of a student from Jixia Palace, he is extremely proficient in both his verbal skills and the method of killing with a borrowed knife."
Huo An looked embarrassed.
Lin Jinna hurriedly opened her mouth to smooth things over: "Now we can be considered as people in the same boat, and I hope the venerable one will reveal his name."
"Me?" Su Anran looked at the three of them with a look that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
This expression made the three of them feel a little uneasy, and they had no idea what the other person was thinking.
After all, from what the other party just said about the reason for being banned here, they knew that even if the ruthless person in front of them was not a demon, he was definitely not far away from it. But after thinking about it, they and the other party had reached a preliminary consensus.
At least until they find each other a new body, the two parties won't fall out, so they feel reassured.
"You can call me..." Su Anran smiled, "Shi Lezhi."
After a slight pause, Shi Lezhi showed a more charming smile: "But I prefer another title."
"What's the name?"
The sense of crisis in her heart became stronger, but Lin Jinna still had the courage to ask.
"Mrs. Su."
"Mrs. Su? What Mrs. Su?" The middle-aged man in Ziyun Jiange has not yet reacted.
But Lin Jinna and Huo An had already screamed, turned around and ran away without hesitation.
