That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 746 Penglai Island and Jinao Island

Chen Gongyu didn't answer directly, and Xu Beiyou didn't continue to ask. The two seemed to just tell a joke and smiled at each other.

Xu Beiyou's smile was heavy, and he couldn't hide his worry.

Chen Gongyu's smile is very chic, and he is full of celebrities.

At the same time, the jade pendant around his waist flashed another green light, like a closed and opened blue eye.

This jade pendant made Xu Beiyou feel very uncomfortable, even a little uneasy.

The two were silent for a long time, just walking slowly along the Baiyu Square, the breeze swept the smell of sea water, it was not fresh, but it could make people feel refreshed.

Xu Beiyou suddenly said: "Of the twelve swords of Jianzong, I already have nine swords, and the remaining three swords are left outside, namely Qingshuang, Tianwen and Shugui. Among them, Qingshuang is in Xiao Shen's hands. , Xiao Shen’s whereabouts are unknown, let’s not talk about him for the time being, according to what the late emperor said, Tianwen and Shugui Erjian should be in Wei State. After thinking about it, I think Biyou Island is the most likely place, I don’t know Does Mr. Yu Yu have any advice?"

Chen Gongyu shook his head and said: "I can't talk about advice, but I have an idea. The Taoist sect has occupied Biyou Island for many years. For the rumored treasure of Jianzong, it is almost three feet deep. If the two swords are really on Biyou Island , I am afraid that before Nangui you come to find the sword, it will already be in the pocket of the Taoist sect, so I think you might as well go to a few other islands to see, maybe there will be unexpected gains."

Xu Beiyou pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay."

The two chatted for a while, then set off to leave Biyou Island, volleying in the air to control the void, flying across the sea, shining like a fairy.

It didn't take long for the two of them to come to Penglai Island, which is the closest to Biyou Island. This is where Lord Daoist Shangqing ascended. There are not many buildings. It is the end of spring and early summer, and the vegetation on the island Lush and lush, it is not broken and depressed like Biyou Island.

This is the first time for Xu Beiyou to set foot here. After Daoist Lord Shangqing left the Taoist sect, he came here to set up the Dharma Dojo and founded the Jianzong. Later, the Jianzong continued to grow and the number of disciples increased, so the sect was transferred to Biyou The island makes this place a place for the ancestors of the Kaipai to practice. The so-called "Shenzhou Tianchao" refers to Biyou Island, and Shenzhou refers to Penglai Island. The ancestral court of Dao Daojun's Dharma line is too presumptuous, so this place can preserve most of its original appearance and avoid the bad luck of Biyou Island.

Xu Beiyou and Chen Gongyu didn't dare to fly in the air here, and lowered their bodies to stand on the edge of the island. Chen Gongyu pointed to a sudden mountain peak in the center of the island, and said: "That is the famous Zizhi Cliff. It is rumored that Lord Daoist of Shangqing was there in the past. Here Ling Xu proves the truth."

Xu Beiyou had seen this name more than once in the clan classics, but it was the first time he had seen the real face with his own eyes.

The two of them walked slowly towards Zizhi Cliff along a small path paved with gravel. After climbing Zizhi Cliff, Xu Beiyou was a little disappointed. Seeing the legacy of the predecessors, after losing its owner, it seems to be just a stone.

Standing on Zizhi Cliff, Xu Beiyou looked up, and a ridiculous idea suddenly appeared in his mind.

The patriarch of Kaipai ascended from this place, so would the sky above his head be more fragile?If sword 24 is used here, will it be easier to break the boundary between heaven and man?

Xu Beiyou shook his head, dispelled those unrealistic thoughts, and turned his eyes back to the Zizhi Cliff at his feet. This slightly purple cliff occupies a huge area, but it is more barren. According to the records of the sect, when this There is also a Taoist palace built on the cliff, which is known as the real realm of the fairyland. The Xuandu Zifu of the Daoist Lord, and the Yujing Jinque of the Yuqing Daojun are called the three supreme fairy palaces of the Daomen, and the reason why the Taoist capital Tianfeng is called the Yujing Xuandu is the extension of the latter two. come.

Chen Gongyu came to Xu Beiyou's side, shook his head and said, "Thinking about the people of the Sword Sect back then, they didn't dare to do more tricks on the saint's ruins."

Xu Beiyou nodded, and the two left Penglai Island and went to the next place, Jinao Island.

Jinao Island is different from Penglai Island and Biyou Island. There are neither lush vegetation nor fragmented buildings here. There are only countless turbulent sword energy and heroic sword intent in the barrenness. Here is more like In a battlefield, most of the ten sword formations that once connected the sky and the earth have been destroyed, but they are still standing at this moment, just like a swordsman who died in battle with his sword, he breathed a sigh of relief when he was dying, and the sword energy Still rushing for nine days.

Numerous escaping sword qi enveloped the entire Jin'ao Island, no matter whether it was a Taoist disciple or a sword sect disciple, as long as they set foot on this island, they would not be able to escape being completely torn apart by the swarming sword qi.

These sword qi don't distinguish between enemy and friend, let alone the battle of swordsmanship.

Xu Beiyou and Chen Gongyu didn't go deep into the island. Xu Beiyou just sat quietly on the edge of the island for an hour, closing his eyes and watching the sword.

Others may have doubts about the reason for closing their eyes to watch the sword, but Xu Beiyou, who has mastered the essence of Jianzong, is well versed in the reason.

In fact, not only closing eyes, but also deafness, deaf taste, dry heart, short-term severance of other number senses, leaving only one sense, not being fascinated by external objects, and focusing on feeling the true meaning inside.

When Xu Beiyou opened his eyes, he only saw Chen Gongyu standing beside him protecting the Dharma.

Chen Gongyu, with the green jade pendant hanging around his waist, looked at the sword aura and the gullies plowed by the sword aura, and said calmly: "Back when the Daomen attacked Jin'ao Island, many people really died. At that time, Xiao Shen rebelled Zong, the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall was overturned, Shangguan Xianchen died, and Gongsun Zhongmou fled. Many "Sword Sect Remnants" in the Taoist gate gathered here. People fight to the death, all die in battle, and no one survives."

Xu Beiyou said softly: "Nine deaths and no regrets, this is the way of swordsmanship displayed in front of my eyes by the ten sword formations here. Even if you know it's death, you still have to move forward with one sword. There is no possibility of kneeling down and begging for mercy. This kind of principle, It’s boring to say, and it sounds boring, but these ancestors of the Sword Sect actually practiced it to let the world know some truths, not just talking about it.”

Chen Gongyu said: "These people deserve the word 'heroic' and should not die in such a lonely place without a name. If one day, you can regain the 36 islands in Nangui, you might as well do it for these people on Jin'ao Island." For the swordsmen who died in Jianzong, light a lamp, build a tomb, and erect a monument."

Xu Beiyou nodded lightly and said, "It should be so."

Then Xu Beiyou solemnly said: "The ancestors of the Jianzong go up, and the ancestors of the Jianzong go up again. Today, Xu Beiyou, a disciple of the Jianzong, swears here that one day he will bring the Jianzong back to the 36th Island and build a building for the heroes of the Jianzong here." A hero's tomb is erected, everyone dies to be famous, everyone deserves to die, and everyone dies without regret."

As Xu Beiyou's words fell, a vision suddenly appeared in the sky above Jin'ao Island.

The sky was dim and the ground was dark, surrounded by clouds and fog, but the ten sword formations and thousands of sword qi could not be seen.

In the next moment, countless sword sounds were heard, like a mountain roaring and a tsunami, and a ray of sword energy shot straight into the sky, tearing apart the sky and the earth, and thunder and lightning behind the clouds could be seen.
