Chapter 121 Tiangang Sword Formation, Remains
The entire battlefield spans nearly 100,000 miles, shrouded in a thick layer of haze.
Even though it was midday and the scorching sun was high, the earth was still dark, not even a single bit of sunlight could penetrate, and an uncomfortable chill filled the air.
The ground beneath my feet was dark brown, like traces left after blood had settled.
The Immortal Way and the Martial Way compete, and there are countless battlefields, large and small, all over the Cangyun Realm, and this place is just one of them.
Many nameless corpses can often be seen on the ground, half buried in the ground.
There were human beings among them, as well as the corpses of unknown monsters. The fragments of the chariot were everywhere, and the broken banners and banners were hung on the broken blades and broken halberds, swaying in the wind.
Chu Zheng walked slowly across the battlefield, with grass growing under his feet. Looking at the dilapidated scene around him, he couldn't help but sigh.
There have been more than one continuous wars here, and countless heroes and heroes have been buried here.
Long years have passed, and these creatures have not even left their names. There are only traces everywhere, telling the tragedy of that year.
[The battle flag of the Yulin Sect (Level 3/Incomplete): The treasure of the Yulin Sect's formation. It gathers the magic power of forty-nine monks into one person. The concentrated soul can kill the divine infant. If the spiritual energy is lost, it can be repaired (0/50) 】
......
[Sun Mirror (Level 5/Incomplete): A superior divine weapon with internal space that can store the essence of the sun and condense the true flames of the sun. The enemy was shattered by one blow, the space was shattered, and the aura was lost. It can be repaired (0/500)]
...
A series of reminders appeared in Chu Zheng’s mind. All the reminders were put away by him one by one.
Soon he was thousands of miles deep into the battlefield, not gaining much along the way.
There is no trace of things like stored magic weapon fragments, and even broken magic weapon fragments are rare.
This battlefield has existed for too long. These battlefields left over from ancient times have been cleaned countless times in major holy places.
Everything that is still usable has basically been taken away.
In addition, this place is a land of extraordinary spiritual energy, the spiritual energy dissipates very quickly, and the fairy gold will turn into mortal iron.
After the Holy Land was cleaned, those slightly more powerful sects also came here to clean up the area.
After that, it will be the small sects, and finally it will be the turn of those casual cultivators with low cultivation levels.
These casual cultivators will basically be taken away as long as they can use anything. Only some things that are really useless will be left behind.
Such as fragments and wreckage of ancient chariots, as well as badly broken magic weapons.
Such as the fragments of Lingbao, most of them are mixed with a variety of fairy gold and divine materials, which cannot be purified and decomposed by the strength of ordinary monks.
For those large sects, it is far more convenient and trouble-free to spend a huge price to repair a broken weapon, or to recycle and temper the materials, than to directly refine a new spiritual treasure.
Throughout the journey, what puzzled Chu Zheng the most was that although there were many sixth-level corpses among the corpses everywhere, he had never seen any remains of living beings above the seventh-level.
A semi-immortal from the Heavenly Tribulation Realm once fell here. This news has been recorded in many places, and there were more than one person. It shouldn't be like this.
The only explanation is that the bones have been taken away.
If it was just for proper burial, there would be no reason to leave so many fifth- and sixth-level bones.
Chu Zheng's heart suddenly moved, and he remembered the ancient battlefield he had discovered at the Phantom Sect's mine before, and turned his hand to take out the half of the metacarpal bone.
[Incomplete Immortal Bones (Seventh Level): The remains of a true immortal were once obtained by an immortal monk and forcibly integrated into the body. With your current ability, it cannot be repaired. 】
This incomplete piece of immortal bone is the only thing in Chu Zheng's body that has entered the seventh level besides his martial arts.
When he got this broken bone, he noticed something abnormal about it.
After so long, this bone still has a source of energy brewing in it.
There is still life in this bone, like a dormant seed that can continue to grow after being integrated into the body.
There is no trace of this powerful vitality in the sixth-level creatures.
The seventh level is undoubtedly a threshold. After passing this threshold, even Chu Zheng’s current repair panel is helpless.
The immortal monk forcibly integrated this piece of immortal bone into his body. Apparently, he did so for some reason.
Rubbing the remaining bone in his palm, Chu Zheng wanted to try to blend it into his palm to explore its mystery, but after weighing it for a moment, he gave up the idea for the time being.
It always feels a bit ominous to have a dead person's bone integrated into the body.
The seventh level is still very far away for him now. After all, the road needs to be walked step by step, so there is no need to be too impatient.
Following the induction of Tianzhu, Chu Zheng moved forward and stopped in a mountain col. After carefully sensing for a moment, he reached out and grabbed the mountain wall on the side.
Boom!
The magic power swept across and condensed into a giant palm dozens of feet tall, instantly erasing half of the mountain wall.
A strong wind swept past, blowing away the swirling dust and smoke. The giant palm made of condensed mana reached out again and grabbed the half-broken sword from among the scattered rubble.
[Tiangang Sword (Level 6/Incomplete): Derived from a set of Tiangang Sword Formation, one of the 360 auxiliary swords, made of phoenix blood wood. With your current ability, you can only complete the preliminary Repair, preliminary repair (0/10)]
After glancing at the prompts on the panel, Chu Zheng took the broken sword in front of him and observed it carefully.
Compared with the one taken from Bai Nian, this broken sword appeared more complete. The tip of the sword was still there, but the hilt was missing.
For the flying sword in this kind of sword formation, it actually doesn't matter whether it has a hilt or not.
After gaining something, Chu Zheng couldn't help but feel a little happy on his face.
Under the induction of Tianzhu Shu, the number of Tiangang Swords on this battlefield is at least over a hundred.
It can be seen from this that the original Tiangang Sword Formation was broken by people here, and most of the Tiangang Swords were scattered without a trace.
Putting away the broken sword, Chu Zheng continued to move forward. In this battlefield, in addition to the broken sword of Tiangang, there was also a fragment of the Xuantian Martial Wall.
Judging from the scale of this battlefield, Chu Zheng even had reason to suspect that the Xuantian Wall was broken here, and it was just by chance that it was scattered to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
…………
…………
A few days later, Chu Zheng came to a low-lying basin.
This depression alone spans nearly a thousand miles, twists and turns, and sinks thousands of feet deep. When viewed from a high altitude, it looks like a palm print.
Chu Zheng searched for a long time, and finally found a black wall not far from a mound in the center of the depression, after digging three feet deep.
[Xuantian Martial Wall (Level 6/Incomplete): A lifelong insight left by a Martial God, broken into six pieces in total, you have obtained four of them, which can be repaired (0/1000)]
Same as before , on this ruined wall, two martial arts magical powers are recorded, the fifth form of Xuantian Seal, and the seventh form of Xuantian Seal.
The fifth form of Xuantian Seal is an offensive magical power. It takes the path of overpowering people with force. It condenses the power of the whole body and converges it into one point, thereby exerting a shocking power.
As for the seventh form of Xuantian Seal, it is a method that can consume the body's potential in a short period of time, thereby greatly improving one's own recovery power.
In an evenly matched fight, this magical power can undoubtedly achieve extremely eye-catching effects.
These two magical powers have extremely high requirements on energy and blood. You need to at least enter the realm of martial arts to hold pills before you can start practicing.
For Chu Zheng at this stage, these two magical powers are not as useful as the previous third form of Xuantian Seal and the evil blood dragon subduing technique.
His current Qi and blood strength is still far from enough. Putting away the Xuantian Martial Wall, Chu Zheng continued to search around, trying to find some clues.
Soon, he discovered something. Not far from the mound, he dug out a leg bone. After wiping off the dust on it, the surface of the bone was bright. Gold and jade, with faint bloodshot lines flashing.
[Unnamed Corpse (Level 6): A martial arts monk who reached the pinnacle of spiritual cultivation during his lifetime. He received two palms from a true immortal. His vitality was cut off and he died. His true spirit was destroyed and cannot be repaired. 】
The remains of a warrior god.
Chu Zheng thought, perhaps this person was the former owner of the Xuantian Martial Wall.
As he had speculated before, the fragments of the Great Zhou were also scattered after this battle.
With a sixth-level cultivation level, being able to survive with a single palm from a true immortal is nothing short of a miracle, no matter what method is used.
Chu Zheng searched carefully around the mound for several days, and finally pieced together a skeleton from a pile of dust.
Chu Zheng built a tomb next to the mound, buried the bones, and then took a piece of bluestone to erect a monument.
Standing in front of the empty monument for a moment, Chu Zheng raised his hand and carved the word 'Xuan Tian', then turned and left.
The Xuantian Wubi is most likely the property of this person. Collecting his body and burying his bones can be regarded as settling a cause and effect.
With him around, it would only be a matter of time before the Xuantian Martial Wall was completely restored. To a certain extent, he helped this person continue his inheritance.
…………
…………
When Chu Zheng was looking for the sword in the battlefield, the outside world had already exploded.
The news that Chu Zheng had mastered the secret method inherited from Taixu Holy Land and Tianque Holy Land spread like wildfire through Nie Yuan’s mouth.
For a time, the whole world was shocked.
The leakage of the immortality method is definitely an intolerable and serious trouble for any holy land.
Not only is it related to one's own practice, but more importantly, if the practice falls into the hands of other holy places, its flaws and weaknesses will be completely exposed.
This means that when fighting against fellow monks from other Holy Lands in the future, they will already be at a disadvantage even before the war begins.
The secret scriptures of the Zhensects in the holy places of all places retain all their own true traditions, and at most they only give half of the immortal scriptures. This shows the importance of the method of becoming an immortal.
For the sake of their own sect inheritance, the Holy Masters of the two Holy Lands went to see Ji Yuyan together, hoping to ask the Immortal Alliance to raise their noble hands so that they could dispatch the Divine Infant monks under their sects to recover the merits of their Holy Lands. Law.
Their request was simple: to erase Chu Zheng's memories of the method of becoming an immortal, and let the rest be forgotten.
The result was naturally that they returned without success. Ji Yuyan never met the two holy masters at all, but only handed over a decree with only four big characters.
[Those who exceed the rules will die]
Obviously, the attitude of the Immortal Alliance has not changed at all. If the monks above the Divine Infant move even slightly, they will definitely face the thunderous wrath from the Immortal Alliance.
No Holy Land dares to take this risk. As long as Ji Yuyan is around, this deterrent will always exist.
As a last resort, the major holy places could only send more people to search for Chu Zheng's whereabouts.
Then the reward for Chu Zheng was further increased, hoping to get some information about Chu Zheng.
As long as their exact location is known, the Holy Lands can lay out a dragnet to surround and kill them.
…………
…………
In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.
During this period of time, Chu Zheng has been wandering around the Xianwu battlefield, searching for the Tiangang Sword Formation.
With Tianzhu, he was extremely efficient. He could find two or three in a day. In more than a month, he had visited the entire Xianwu battlefield.
His footprints are all over the entire battlefield. His movements of digging mountains and digging holes at every turn naturally attracted the attention of others.
As time went by, the rumor that a big monk came to the battlefield also spread among the circles of minor monks.
It has been a long time since a strong person with this level of cultivation appeared here, which naturally caused quite a shock.
Chu Zheng didn't care about this. After making sure that there were no omissions, he immediately began to count his gains.
On this entire ancient battlefield, Chu Zheng obtained a total of one hundred and twenty-seven Tiangang Swords, occupying one-third of the entire Tiangang Sword Formation.
Most of them are already out of shape and broken into several pieces, not a few.
Either only a tip of the sword is left, or only half of the hilt is left, or even only a finger-long piece of wood remains.
After reluctantly selecting for a long time, Chu Zheng picked out thirty-six broken swords. After preliminary repairs, he began to refine them one by one.
The Tiangang Sword is of such a high grade that the power of the Tiangang Sword Formation is naturally astonishing.
Chu Zheng does not have the specific Tiangang Sword Formation diagram, but there is a similar sword formation diagram in the general outline of the Great Zhou Tianqi Movement.
Supplemented by the magical power of controlling objects, it is enough for Chu Zheng.
…………
.........
After refining the thirty-six remaining Tiangang swords, the news from the outside world had also reached Chu Zheng’s ears.
In this regard, he felt only indescribable excitement.
When people in the world mention the word "Chu Zheng", few people know it. Most of the monks are busy because of the word "Chu Zheng".
Now, he wants to test the power of the sword formation.
Chu Zheng immediately left the seclusion and found a group of young monks who were exploring the battlefield.
There are three people in this group, the one with the highest cultivation level is only in the early stage of Lingquan, and the age difference is huge.
The eldest one is nearly sixty years old, and the younger one is only more than ten years old and has just started to gain strength. He looks like three generations of grandparents.
Seeing the sudden appearance of Chu Zheng, they were all shocked when they noticed the fluctuation in his cultivation. Thinking of the rumors on the battlefield in recent days, they did not dare to neglect, and they all saluted:
"See you Over the seniors.”
"We are destined to meet each other, and I will give you a fortune today."
Chu Zheng glanced at a few people and grinned:
"I am Chu Zheng, you The three of them can go to any sect to redeem the reward for the information about my presence here."
When he heard the word Chu Zheng, the expression of the oldest monk changed drastically and his face turned pale.
The youngest boy rolled his eyes and said bluntly:
"How much spiritual stone is the senior's news worth?"
Chu Zheng's eyes flickered and he smiled faintly: "It's enough to last you a lifetime."
Now that the sword array is in hand, he intends to attract the crowd Dragons come here, hunt in the wilderness, and sharpen their edges with blood.
As for the reward, there is no need to waste it.
