refining sword

Chapter 49
When the morning sun rose the next day, Tie Jian's body was almost completely frozen, and even his consciousness was a little blurry.

But when the first ray of sunlight from the east fell on him, a warm current immediately rose from his dantian and began to slowly flow through his body, removing all the coldness from his body.

Tie Jian quickly put away the robe he was wearing, moved his hands and feet, and found that the pain in the joints had completely disappeared, and even the physical strength that was consumed yesterday was completely recovered.

He was overjoyed and immediately continued to climb towards the top of the mountain.

After the hard climbing that day, there was no sharp mountain wind at night, but a thunderstorm in the sky instead.

The sound of thunder resounded through the heavens and the earth, as if a god was beating a drum above the clouds. Every blow would shatter the sea of ​​​​clouds, and pour down heavy rain, which was also mixed with countless tiny thunder and lightning like golden snakes.

As you go up, the mountain peaks shrink, the corresponding stone steps narrow, and there are no rock crevices on both sides.

Tie Jian had nowhere to hide, so he could only hold onto the stone steps with both hands, face down, and lie down on the stone steps.

When the thunderstorm fell on his body, Tie Jian felt as if his body was pierced by dense steel nails, and the sharp pain was accompanied by the numbness of the electric current, which was extremely unbearable.

This numb and painful feeling made his whole body weak, and he could barely hold the stone steps with both hands.

Compared with the two, the taste of the cold wind last night was simply too much.

At this time, Tie Jian can only try his best to endure, not to let himself lose his mind in this extreme pain, otherwise he will fall from the top of this thousand-foot-high mountain, even if he is lucky enough to survive, I am afraid that the root of the cultivation way will be damaged. .

For the next half-a-day, every day and night, extreme weather such as blizzard, stone rain, and thunderstorms would come in turn, and each time Tie Jian suffered more intense pain than the previous one.

If it weren't for every day, when the sun shines on his body, his injuries will be fully recovered. With his iron and mental strength, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it long ago.

After more than ten days of torment, he finally entered the sea of ​​clouds and came to the top of the mountain.

Above the peak is a flat white stone cliff, and the mist is steaming above it, making it unreal.

Tie Jian looked at it carefully, only to realize that a crooked peach tree was planted on the edge of the stone cliff. There were no green leaves on the tree, but only dense pink peach blossoms.

Under the peach trees, there is a half-mu-sized pond. The mist inside is rolling and rising, and it seems to be a hot spring.

Seeing this, Tie Jian felt a little puzzled, and while waving his hand to disperse the fog around him, he turned around on the stone cliff.

He was quickly surprised to find that there was nothing on the cliff except the hot springs and peach trees, and there was no shadow of the Heavenly God Monument at all.

Isn't this the Mysterious Yin Secret Realm?

But thinking about it again, it was the stone rune who brought him into this place, so there shouldn't be anything wrong.

"Could it be that the stone tablet is under that hot spring?" Tie Jian secretly asked.

As soon as he thought of this, he walked to the tree in three steps and two steps, leaned over and looked into the pond, but when he saw the mist inside, he couldn't see anything at all.

Tie Jian put his palm into the water and stirred it a few times, only to feel that the water temperature was just right.

After a little hesitation, he took off his shirt and slipped into the water from the edge of the pond.

After entering the water, Tie Jian realized that the water in the hot spring was not deep, only up to his waist.

He leaned down and touched the bottom of the pond with his hands from left to right, right to left, along the edge of the pond, but found nothing.

Obviously, the entrance to the Heavenly God Monument is not here.

Although Tie Jian had expected it in his heart, he still sighed helplessly, sinking his body into the water, leaning his back against the edge of the pond, and simply soaked in the hot spring.

Over the past few days, he has been climbing mountains and sweating in the daytime, and has been subjected to wind, rain, and thunderstorms at night. Although the morning sun helped him heal his wounds, the feeling of exhaustion that had accumulated for a long time could not be eliminated.

Since there is this hot spring in front of you, it is the most useful thing to use to wash away the dust and relieve stress.

Inside the hot spring, there was a dense mist, and after a while Tie Jian felt his eyes and eyelids were heavy and drooped, and soon he leaned his head back and fell into a drowsy sleep.

I don't know how long it took, and suddenly there were bursts of women laughing around the pond.

Tie Jian's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes.

His eyelids had just opened, and there was a "pop" beside him, and a large splash of water fell on his face.

At the same time, a soft and delicate white palm also climbed up on his chest, drawing a circle lightly on his heart.

Tie Jian was startled, he suddenly woke up, his body jumped up, and the slender woman who was in his arms was startled, and Hua Rong screamed in shock.

"Brother Tie, what are you doing?" A slightly complaining coquettish voice sounded.

Tie Jian looked around, and saw Yan Zi in a pink gauze skirt sitting in the hot spring water, looking at him with resentment on his face.

"Why did you come in too?" Tie Jian was stunned and cried out in surprise.

After saying a word, he suddenly felt a little cold on his body, and when he looked down, he realized that he was naked and naked, and he hurriedly screamed and sat back in the water again.

"What's wrong with you? Why is it so weird?" Yan Zi said, and leaned towards him again with a smile.

Tie Jian's face was flushed, and he quickly ducked to the side.

However, as soon as he dodged, his elbow hit a soft spot again, and when he turned his head to look, he saw Ning Xiaoxiao wearing a purple tulle robe, lying on the edge of the pool, the perfect lines of her body were revealed.

She turned her head and smiled sweetly at Tie Jian. The two pear eddies embedded in her face were suffocating in the smoke.

When Tie Jian saw this, his body froze, and he couldn't help shouting, "Xiao Xiao, what are you doing?"

When he called out, the smile on Ning Xiaoxiao's face became even more intoxicating. He pushed the edge of the pond, walked backwards to Tie Jian's side, raised his hand and pulled it up to his arm.

On the other side, Yan Zi also moved over and leaned on his other shoulder.

Although Tie Jian couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, his tense nerves gradually relaxed.

He couldn't help raising his arm, using his fingertips to pick up a strand of Ning Xiaoxiao's blue silk, and looked at it carefully.

At this moment, Tie Jian suddenly caught a glimpse of the corner of his eyes, the empty space above his chest, and one thing was missing.

With a move in his heart, he turned to Ning Xiaoxiao and asked, "Where's the sachet you gave me?"

"Isn't it here?" The latter heard the words, touched it from behind with a smile, took out a round sachet that is common in the market, and handed it over.

Tie Jian glanced at him, didn't reach out to take the sachet, instead he pulled his arm out of Ning Xiaoxiao's hand, and after a distance from the two women, his expression suddenly turned cold, and he shouted sharply, "What kind of monsters are you? What? How dare you bewitch me like this?"

"what are you talking about?"

Yan Zi and Ning Xiaoxiao looked at each other with a puzzled look on their faces, and said angrily.

Tie Jian was suddenly furious, jumped onto the shore, quickly draped his clothes over his body, took out a high-grade magic sword from the storage bracelet, and stabbed Ning Xiaoxiao and Yan Zi.

However, when he did not use the sword, the surrounding world was no different. After the sword was stabbed, the surrounding smoke immediately rolled around and surrounded him.

The long sword in his hand was also swept in by the fog, and it was tightly bound in the air, unable to stab forward or withdraw it backwards.

Tie Jian was shocked, but he still used his full power to use his mana, but he was still unable to move the long sword.

In the pond, Yan Zi and Ning Xiaoxiao were dependent on each other, and they both smiled sarcastically at him.

Tie Jian felt bad in his heart, he snorted coldly, abandoned the sword, flipped his hand again, took out a high-grade magic sword, and slashed towards the void in front of him.

But the sword edge just landed on the halfway, and he couldn't cut it anymore, and he was also imprisoned.

After several times, the several magic swords carried by Tie Jian were all wrapped up in the void, unable to move.

His eyes flickered slightly, his fingers were pinched together, and a small moving talisman on his fingertips flashed light, wrapping his whole being and disappearing in a flash.

"Oh!"

After a short while, a muffled sound came.

Tie Jian's figure almost appeared on the spot, and the whole person slammed into an invisible barrier and fell back.

When the two girls in the pond saw this, the smiles on their faces became even stronger.

Seeing this, Tie Jian's heart sank, and his hands suddenly clenched a magic formula. The golden flame in his dantian suddenly rose up, and there were strands of golden flame threads, which were connected to the seven magic swords. above.

"buzzing"

The seven-handed magic swords shone brightly, and all of them began to tremble violently.

Seeing this, Tie Jian flashed a trace of regret in his eyes, and shouted:
"Break it for me!"

In the next instant, the seven-handled magic sword was surrounded by a bright circle of spiritual patterns, as if seven groups of red scorching suns were lit up, and then it exploded.

An incomparably majestic aura, wrapped in layers of golden flames, swept away in all directions.

The mist and mist that condensed around the surroundings were swept away like ice melting and snow melting.

The two women in the pond still had smiles on their faces, but their figures melted away when the air wave swept over them.

The pink peach tree by the pond also trembled violently, and pieces of pink petals fell down like a rain of flowers.

When these petals landed, there was a layer of light ripples on the ground of the stone cliff, rippling in all directions.

The surrounding scenery suddenly changed and took on a new look.

On the stone cliff, the peach tree and the pond are still there, but on the other side of the cliff, a black stone tablet with a width of about ten feet and a height of about three feet appeared out of thin air.

Below the stele, there is a white withered bones, some of which are already decayed and incomplete, and some can still see the blue silk on their heads, which makes people shudder.

"It's all hallucinations?" Tie Jian was slightly different.

He raised his hand and touched his chest, and found that the sword-shaped sachet had been re-hung on his neck at some point.

Then, he probed the storage bracelet again, and all the seven magic swords in it had disappeared, and there was also one less small shift talisman. It seems that everything is not illusory?

For a while, Tie Jian couldn't figure it out either, so he stepped forward and looked at the stone tablet carefully.
