Chapter 1381 The Death of the Sword Ape
“There is no other way, don’t take any chances.”
The Eight-Armed Sword Ape shook his head and said with a serious face: “I don’t know you Why can I control multiple flying swords? But as long as you reach the sword mind state, you can only have a flying sword, otherwise your sword mind will be confused and you will eventually become possessed. This is an eternal iron law!"
Looking at the serious look of the demon ape, Liang Yan's thoughts suddenly became confused.
Having practiced Taoism for more than two hundred years, he almost always makes a prompt decision when encountering anything, but today is different.
Because the natal flying sword involves the foundation of one's own path!
I went through thorns and thorns all the way, groping my way, but halfway, someone suddenly jumped out and said to you, the path you took before was wrong, and you have to destroy it and start over. How can you accept this?
The most important thing is that this choice cannot be escaped!
To give up, or not to give up?
As long as you want to take a further step in the path of swordsmanship, sooner or later this question will be placed in front of you!
"Hey, I know it's not easy for you to practice so many flying swords. Now it's really cruel for you to destroy these flying swords with your own hands. But you have to know that if you continue to break them, you will suffer chaos! Even if your flying swords No matter how many, it is impossible to beat the master of Sword Heart. As long as you achieve Sword Heart, even one flying sword will be better than all your flying swords." The Eight-Armed Sword Monkey said earnestly.
"Thank you, senior, for your advice."
Liang Yan's eyes flickered a few times, and he bowed his hand to the monster ape, but said nothing more.
The Eight-Armed Sword Ape looked at him and knew that although he did not refute, he still couldn't let go of his own flying sword in his heart. He couldn't help but sighed and said: "That's all, old ape, I've said it all. Here, perhaps you will be able to understand it when you touch the threshold of Jianxin Realm."
After saying that, he raised his hand and waved, and the Jianxin World suddenly disappeared.
Liang Yan slowly opened his eyes and found that his spiritual mind had returned to his body. He was still surrounded by high walls and there was a pond in front of him. The two of them were sitting cross-legged near the pond.
The eight-armed sword ape also opened its eyes.
It looked at Liang Yan, seeming a little regretful, but this trace of regret was fleeting, and the next moment it smiled again.
"I have taught everything that needs to be taught. My path to swordsmanship was obtained from the human race back then, and now it is still with the human race. Sure enough, the way of heaven is cyclical, and it has its own destiny!"
" The senior is extremely talented and unparalleled. If he were not trapped in the Thousand Magic Tower, his future achievements would be limitless!" Liang Yan said sincerely.
"Haha, maybe."
The Eight-Armed Sword Ape smiled, and then seemed to remember something, and slowly said: "Tianji Pavilion is a Confucian sect, and has studied the art of Qi Sect deeply. It is basically impossible for an outsider like you to figure out the exit of the maze if you have not learned the magical powers of Tianji Pavilion."
Liang Yan nodded and said. His words expressed agreement: "Senior is right. This maze is changing all the time. With my crude calculation skills, it is indeed difficult to find the exit."
"In fact, besides finding the exit, there is another way. You can go to the fifth floor."
"Oh? Is there any other way?" Liang Yan became interested and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
The Eight-Armed Sword Ape didn't give in, and then said: "Actually, it's very simple. As long as you find the gatekeeper on this level, you can ask him to send you to the fifth floor. Originally, the gatekeeper was at the exit of the maze. , but since the changes on the fourth floor, he seems to have left his position, so what you have to do The thing is to find him in the maze, defeat him, and then ask him to help you activate space teleportation."
"The gatekeeper."
Liang Yan pondered for a moment, and based on the previous layers. With his experience, he knew that there would be gatekeepers on each floor, usually puppets left behind by Tianji Pavilion.
"But the maze on the fourth floor is so big, it's not easy for me to find the gatekeeper." Liang Yan shook his head, obviously feeling that this method was not very helpful to him.
"Actually, it's not difficult to find that guy. You just need to search in the direction of the water." The Eight-Armed Sword Ape said with a slight smile.
"In the direction of water?"
"Yes! The gatekeeper of this level is actually not a puppet, but a weapon spirit! It is the weapon spirit of the water magic weapon. Every time you encounter a fork in the road, Just go in the direction where the water spiritual power is rich, and you will definitely find it in the end!" the Eight-Armed Sword Ape said with great certainty.
Liang Yan was overjoyed after hearing this and hurriedly thanked him:
"Thank you, senior, for your guidance!"
He was sincerely grateful to the Eight-Armed Sword Ape, because the other party not only gave his guidance His sword cultivation method also showed him a clear way to pass the level.
Thinking that such a gifted demon ape would die trapped in such a place, Liang Yan couldn't bear it. He thought for a while and said: "Senior demon ape, why don't you come with me? I have two helpers. Then we will How about I help you get the Soul Card back and let's all leave this place together?"
After listening to Liang Yan's suggestion, the Eight-Armed Sword Monkey grinned and suddenly laughed.
A sense of desolation appeared in his eyes.
“Actually, I was already dead from the moment I drank the ‘Moon-painted Water’. The reason why I drag a skin until now is probably to wait for you.”
Speaking of this, the Eight-Armed Sword Ape slowly stood up from the ground.
"Although I am a demon clan, I am also a sword cultivator. The way a sword cultivator would die is definitely not to linger like this and finally become a walking corpse!"
"I understand."
Liang Yan nodded and slowly stood up from the ground.
His face was solemn.
Although they had known each other for less than an hour, he felt that he could fully understand the Eight-Armed Sword Ape.
Sometimes a true heart-to-heart relationship may not take long, just a word or a look is enough.
"As the senior wishes, the junior will do his best, without reservation, and use the strongest killing move to send the senior on his way!"
"Haha."
The eight-armed sword ape smiled heartily and was very pleased.
The next moment, the aura on his body suddenly changed.
Although there is no strong power, there is a momentum, a momentum of "I will move forward with one sword despite the mountains of swords and seas of fire"!
It seems that at this moment, he is no longer the rotten old ape who struggled with the "Huiyue Shui" and whose edges were worn away by the long river of time, but a peerless demon ape who has restored his heyday, a scornful one. Swordsman!
"Liang Yan, be careful!"
The eight-armed sword ape grasped the eight "iron knots" in his hands, as if he was holding the flying sword, and he moved forward indomitably. Like a shooting star, it rushed towards Liang Yan.
There was no hesitation or hesitation in its steps, and its eyes were full of determination.
If there is anything besides determination, it is nostalgia and hatred.
Missing the past self
Hating the current self.
At this moment, Liang Yan looked at the charging monster ape, with a complicated look on his face expression.
He knew that in fact, the Eight-Armed Sword Ape's body was already at the end of its strength, and the attack of "Moon Painting Water" just now left his life hanging by a thread.
If the Eight-Armed Sword Ape chooses to seal itself and uses its last bit of power to suppress the evil things in its body, it might be able to sit here for years or even decades.
But it did not choose to do so.
The eight-armed sword ape met Liang Yan, who was also a sword cultivator, and chose to burn his last bit of strength, blooming like fireworks with the final splendor, and then complete its end.
Liang Yan is not qualified to comment on its choice.
All he can do is respect.
"Liang Yan, the human sword cultivator, would like to send my senior on his way!"
Facing the eight-armed sword ape that was already a candle in the wind, Liang Yan did not hold back at all. The power of the sword baby and the nine-turn gold in his body The elixir was activated at the same time, and the spiritual power of the four great traditions circulated crazily like boiling water.
The four sword pills on the head: Zi Lei, Mayfly, Dingguang, and Black Lotus, trembled almost at the same time, and the clanging sword sounds were endless, as if they were making a final sword salute to the opponent.
The next moment, four sword lights of purple, green, silver, and black burst out at the same time, like four gorgeous hazes piercing the sky!
In the gorgeous brilliance, the Eight-Armed Sword Ape seemed to see his own reflection.
That was my young self, leaving my hometown, wandering alone, studying under teachers, studying hard, exploring all the way on the road of kendo, struggling all the way, but unfortunately the road has no limit, and it has not reached the end after all.
Brush!
The next moment, four sword lights pierced the chest of the Eight-Armed Sword Ape at the same time, and the running footsteps also stopped at this moment.
"Senior."
Liang Yan had a look of regret in his eyes.
"Haha, there's no need to feel sorry for me." At this time, the Eight-Armed Sword Ape knelt on the ground, using only one arm to barely support his huge body. Although his face was pale and sweat was pouring from his forehead, he still managed to endure it. Painful, grinning.
However, this smile is a little distorted.
“To die in an upright manner by my opponent’s sword is the best ending for me. I got this skill from the human race back then, and now I can still get it from the human race. I’m so lucky! I’m so lucky.”
The Eight-Armed Sword Ape's voice is getting weaker and weaker, and the breath in his body is disappearing rapidly. His eyelids are drooping, like a candle in the wind, about to be blown out.
However, the next moment, the eyelids that were about to close suddenly opened again, and his face became extremely serious.
"Be careful! It. It. It's right behind my head, ah!"
With a scream, the Eight-Armed Sword Ape's eyes widened and its head fell to the side. He moved aside, and finally there was no breath anymore.
A great demon with extraordinary talent who had entered the realm of swordsmanship completely fell.
However, Liang Yan did not have time to remember him.
Because in his sight, behind the Eight-Armed Sword Ape's head and at the neck, a blood bag the size of a fist was rapidly swelling.
In just one thousandth of a breath, it had already swelled to the size of a human head. Then the blood bag burst open, and a huge black long worm sprang out from the demon ape's neck!
This long black worm is almost exactly the same as the one previously found in the body of the "Drilling Rat", but it is more than five times larger in size and is as thick as a water tank. The mouth of the worm in front is open, revealing a The rows of pointed teeth are densely packed, with as many as a thousand!
It was extremely fast. As soon as it appeared, it flew straight towards Liang Yan's Tianling Gai.
At a distance of about a hundred feet, it took only one-tenth of a breath in front of this black long insect, and the next moment it rushed in front of Liang Yan.
At such a fast speed, I am afraid that no one among the ten geniuses can react.
However, Liang Yan was reminded by the Eight-Armed Sword Ape and was already prepared.
The moment he saw the blood bag bulging, he immediately mobilized the spiritual power in his body, circulated the "Empty Phase of All Dharmas", and surrounded himself with a thick layer of Buddhist golden light.
Bang!
As soon as the golden light took shape, the long black insect crashed into it.
The Buddhist spiritual power suddenly burst out and imprinted on the body of the strange insect, making a "sizzling!" sound, making its body twist and turn, and wisps of green smoke came out.
However, this black strange insect didn't seem to know the pain at all. It was still lying on the golden light, trying desperately to get in even though the smoke was rising all over its body.
To be precise, he wanted to get into Liang Yan's body.
“It’s you.”
Liang Yan’s pupils shrank slightly and he pinched the sword in his hand urgently.
Four sword pills flew at the same time, and the sword energy came out vigorously, just like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, and the black long insect was involved in the sword energy storm.
"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"
As a series of strange screams sounded, the long black insect was cut into hundreds of pieces by the sword light.
But Liang Yan is still worried about this.
The tragic situation of the Eight-Armed Sword Ape is still vivid in my mind. Even though the long black insect has no power outside, once it gets into one's body, there is really no way to save it.
Thinking of this, Liang Yan did not immediately dissipate his magical power.
He enveloped his whole body with the Buddhist golden light of "The Empty Phase of All Dharmas", and then continued to activate the sword technique. The sword light of the four sword pills suddenly surged, cutting the black man who had been chopped into hundreds of pieces. The strange insect killed him countless times.
Liang Yan only breathed a sigh of relief after the strange insect was chopped into ashes.
The strange insect disappeared, and a strange black liquid flowed out of the eight-armed sword ape's body.
Liang Yan did not approach, but stood far away and bowed to the body of the Eight-Armed Sword Ape.
"Thank you for your advice, senior. Even though he is a demon clan, he is also someone I, Liang Yan, admire."
After saluting, Liang Yan slowly turned around, retreated to the door of the room, and opened the door again.
Boom!
With a dull sound, the stone door opened, revealing the beautiful face outside.
As soon as Liang Yan came out, Wu Xin's face immediately burst into a smile. As for the trace of worry in her eyes, she hid it well.
"Brother Stinky, you're just a dying demon ape, why did it take you so long!"
"It"
Liang Yan paused for a moment, then sighed and said: "It It’s not a dying demon ape, but a swordsman who is ready to die.”
Wuxin was slightly startled after hearing this.
She is a smart person. Although she doesn't understand what happened inside, looking at Liang Yan's solemn look, she knew that the other party must have left a deep impression on him.
"The demon ape is"
"dead now."
"What about you? Are you not injured?" Wu Xin looked at Liang Yan carefully.
"No."
Liang Yan shook his head, his eyes suddenly looked into Wu Xin's eyes, and he held her catkin in his hands, and said softly: "It's not easy for the two of us to meet again, we must Get out of here alive”
Feeling the warmth in his hands and Liang Yan's fiery eyes, Wu Xin felt a little sweet in his heart.
"Why do you say this suddenly?"
Wuxin lowered his head, his cheeks slightly flushed.
"It's nothing. It's just that the road ahead is uncertain, strange and unpredictable. I don't want to be separated from you." Liang Yan's voice came slowly.
Actually, the reason why he said this was because the information he received from the Eight-Armed Sword Ape gave him a new understanding of this Thousand Machine Demonic Tower.
This place is far more dangerous than previously imagined.
Painting moon water, eternal life, container. And the mysterious fifth layer.
These unknown things are far beyond the capabilities of the top ten geniuses, and once they enter the fourth level, there is no way back.
What awaits them, is it chance or death?
Liang Yan was not sure at all.
Just when he was in a state of mind, Wu Xin squeezed his hand.
A boneless coldness came from the palm of my hand.
“No matter what lies ahead, I will not be separated from you this time.”
