Chapter 574: The Myth of the Battle Court, Dealing with Fate
In the early morning, the sun shone through the dilapidated imperial city filled with scorched smoke. Corpses could be seen everywhere, and the broken walls were stained with blood.
The gray-faced Bai Sheng stood on the ruins, looking at the tragic scenes in all directions. His pupils were trembling, and he did not dare to accept what he saw.
The city that seemed to him the most prosperous turned into ruins overnight. He saw that only half of the mask of the sword-dancing Taoist from before was left, which touched him even more.
"How could this happen..."
Bai Sheng talked to himself, his voice trembling.
He felt like he was in a nightmare, a nightmare from which he couldn't wake up.
He looked up into the distance and immediately rushed down. He began to look for Gu An everywhere. When he encountered corpses along the way, he would hold back his fear and nausea and turn over them.
The sun kept rising, and until noon, he still couldn't find Gu An, and his hands were already covered in blood.
Exhausted, he fell to his knees on the street. He didn't even have the strength to raise his head.
After searching all morning, there was no fear in his heart, only numbness.
A figure appeared in front of him. He saw the other person's shoes, but he couldn't speak.
Su Jin looked down at Bai Sheng and sighed: "Didn't you say that instead of living an ordinary life, you would like to die in the mouths of monsters and monsters? Last night you saw big monsters that most mortals will never see in their lives. , shouldn’t you be happy?”
Bai Sheng lowered his head and asked feebly: "Are you also such a monster..."
"I am not so bloodthirsty, but I have also killed people and monsters." Su Jin replied, which made Bai Sheng fall into silence.
Su Jin continued: "Now that you have seen extraordinary power, follow me to cultivate immortality in the future."
"Help me...find...Brother Gu..."
Bai Sheng said with difficulty. After saying these five words, he completely lost his strength and fainted directly. His body fell forward. Fortunately, Su Jin hugged him in time.
Su Jin hugged Bai Sheng with a smile on her face. She had fantasized about doing this for thousands of years and finally did it.
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect you in this life, just like you fought to the death to protect me thousands of years ago."
Su Jin whispered to herself, she picked up Bai Sheng and flew away.
Her consciousness enveloped the entire city and continued to spread outward.
"Strange, where did he go? Was he eaten clean by monsters?"
Su Jin muttered to herself in confusion, and she didn't think much about it. Anyway, she had already helped Bai Sheng look for it, and if he couldn't find it, then she wasn't to blame.
She hugged Bai Sheng and flew into the distance, disappearing from the horizon in the blink of an eye.
The dark clouds in the sky have dispersed, and the sun is shining on this dilapidated imperial city. There is a faint trace of turbidity dissipating.
……
Inside Wu Shi Dojo.
In the courtyard, Gu An was lying on a rocking chair reading a book, and from time to time he gave instructions to Shen Zhen on how to control the Taiqing True Fire under the refining cauldron.
Ten years have passed since I separated from Bai Sheng.
Shen Zhen turned to look at Gu An and asked: "Gu An, where is the origin of Taoting? There is a widespread rumor in the Qiankun Sect that Taoting will become a sect that will dominate the world."
Gu An replied casually: "The Taoist Court, like the Holy Court, was once the overlord of a large world. After the world was reshaped, they developed rapidly. Of course, they were able to do this because there was a profound Taoist behind them. ”
"How strong is he? How is he compared to you?" Shen Zhen asked with raised eyebrows.
Gu An smiled and said: "I haven't fought before, so it's hard to say."
"Well, listening to what you said, that person is definitely not your opponent."
Shen Zhen rolled her eyes at Gu An. Gu An could hear her thoughts. The girl admired him extremely in her heart and marveled at his power, but her tone was something else.
Gu An said while turning the pages of the book: "However, it is too early for Tao Ting to unify the world of Tianling."
"How far into the future can you see?" Shen Zhen asked curiously.
In fact, she was extremely curious about Gu An's cultivation, but she just kept it to herself and was too embarrassed to ask. If she could find an opportunity to test it, she would naturally not let it go.
"Don't ask, the secret must not be revealed."
Gu An said perfunctorily, and after that, he turned over and turned his back to Shen Zhen.
Shen Zhen snorted, and then concentrated on studying the Taoist treasures in the weapon refining cauldron.
The courtyard fell into silence, with the occasional sound of wind passing through.
The Three Purities True Fire under the refining tripod kept swaying, as if it would never go out. As it swayed, time passed quickly.
Spring passes and autumn comes.
Five hundred years have passed. Five hundred years later, Gu An was still lying on this chair, and Shen Zhen was still sitting in front of the weapon refining cauldron.
Gu An stood up and put the Qing Xia Travel Notes in his arms. He picked up the Qing Hong Sword and pulled it out of its scabbard.
The sound of the sword being unsheathed alarmed Shen Zhen. She turned to look at Gu An, watching him fiddle with the sword in his hand, and was about to ask. Suddenly, her expression changed and she looked up suddenly.
Not just her, everyone in the dojo was alarmed and looked up.
I saw black spots appearing one after another in the blue sky. These black spots expanded rapidly, like black holes, making the sky look riddled with holes.
"What is that?" Shen Zhen asked with a frown.
Gu An did not look up. He gently waved the Qinghong Sword and replied: "The transcendent force from outside the world is called Zhan Ting."
"War Court?"
Shen Zhen had never heard of this name. She asked in surprise: "Why do these powerful sects like to use the name of court, Holy Court, Dao Court, War Court? Doesn't the heaven in your book really exist?" < br>
At first, she doubted that The Romance of the Gods and Journey to the West were real. Now that she thought about it, it was really possible. After all, Gu An's moral deeds were beyond her imagination.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
"Don't say it, don't say it." Gu An said with a meaningful smile.
He was thinking about how to use his sword to sweep the battlefield.
At this time, he suddenly felt something, turned his head and looked into the distance, a strange color flashed in his eyes.
The direction he was looking at was the direction of Taixuanmen.
At the same time, on the distant Taicang Continent.
Zhuxing and Ye Cang appeared under Long Qing's attic, and the soul of Patriarch Qingtian flew out of Ye Cang's body. He looked up at the sky and frowned.
"The battle court is so terrifying..." Ancestor Qingtian said to himself.
Candle Star also looked at the sky with a look of disbelief on his face.
Ancestor Qingtian turned to look at him and asked: "Aren't you also from Zhanting? I heard that you want Taixuan Sect to replace Zhanting?"
Ye Cang also looked at Zhuxing, and he heard the sarcasm of Patriarch Qingtian.
Zhuxing took a deep breath and said: "I didn't expect Zhan Ting to have such a foundation. It seems that the existence has come out of seclusion, and he has summoned all the powerful people who have left for a long time."
"It's strange. He clearly disdains the Long clan. The only ones targeting the Long clan are the Gods of War..."
Ancestor Qingtian guessed: "After all, even the Heavenly Spirit God has fallen, and Zhanting still dares to come, he must have some confidence."
Candlestar couldn't answer, he was so distraught.
The pressure coming from the battle court made him tremble with fear. He could not imagine the scene of facing those gods of war, especially facing that existence.
That existence is the myth and legend of Zhanting. Even if he reaches Xuanyuan Zizai Fairyland, he has never seen that existence.
Kuang——
The door to the attic opened, and Long Qing walked out of the house. He walked down the stairs, his steps neither fast nor slow, and his face was calm.
A figure appeared under the stairs out of thin air. It was Long Qing's son, Long Teng.
"Father, where did the vision in the sky come from? Why do I feel my blood surge uncontrollably? I even..." Long Teng asked with a frown.
Long Qing walked to the corner of the stairs, looked down at him, and said, "You even have hostility and murderous intent in your heart?"
Long Teng's eyes widened and he asked: "Father, do you also feel this way?"
Long Qing continued to walk down, he turned to look at the sky, and said: "There are some things that are too late to tell you, and you don't need to know, so just keep an eye on them."
"Are you optimistic? Father, what are you going to do?" Long Teng's brows furrowed again, and he felt intense uneasiness in his heart.
Long Qing came to him, but he felt that Long Qing might disappear at any time, which made him subconsciously raise his hand to grab the hem of Long Qing's clothes.
Zhuxing, Ye Cang, and Qingtian Ancestor, who knew the fate of the Long clan, all remained silent and stared at Long Qing.
Ye Cang clenched his fists tightly, feeling very unwilling.
He didn't expect the battle court to come so quickly.
Five hundred years is a long time for a mortal, but for him, his cultivation level is too late to break through, and it is far from enough to help his master.
Just by feeling the vast pressure that enveloped the world, Ye Cang knew that he could not interfere with this fate.
Just...
How should the master respond?
Ye Cang felt that his master's cultivation level was not much higher than his, but his master's calmness made him look forward to it.
