Sword knocks the door of heaven

Chapter 498 Ugly eating pictures

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

In the desert outside Hongli City, it was still the place where Li Yunsheng played chess with the city lord of the night city, and the sound of bursts of sword energy tearing the air sounded in the desert.

This sound continued for three days and three nights.

After the city lord of One Night City left, Li Yunsheng just swung his sword for three days and three nights without sleep.

In the desert four to five miles around him, "sword scars" can be seen everywhere like scars, and the dense sword energy fills the entire area.

Some flying birds that accidentally flew into this area were directly frightened by this sword intent, unable to flap their wings, and fell straight down.

Until the early morning of the fourth day, with a slightly desolate "sword cry" resounding through the desert, Li Yunsheng woke up from the almost mad state this time.

Almost at the same time, the long sword in his hand broke into pieces with a "ding".

"Looks like I really need a good sword."

Li Yunsheng looked at the broken sword in his hand and frowned.

He still can't fully comprehend the "great way to simplicity" that City Lord Yiye said at this moment. All he did in the past three days and three nights was to imitate his sword-stretching movements non-stop.

Although he still couldn't use the back-to-nature sword like the City Lord of One Night City, the three days and three nights of practicing sword like madness made him discover something that he had ignored before.

That is, as a sword cultivator, no matter how advanced your realm is, no matter how strong your true energy is, if you want to fully exert your strength as a sword cultivator, you must have a sword that matches it.

Before that, what Li Yunsheng valued was the sword energy, sword power and sword intent.

It is undeniable that a breakthrough in any of the three is extremely difficult for a swordsman.

But Li Yunsheng's problem is that his rapid improvement in these three things made him ignore the existence of the sword, and even in many cases, he no longer practiced with the sword, but replaced the saber with sword energy and sword intent.

Practicing with the sword like a madman for the past three days made him realize again that whether it is sword energy, sword momentum or sword intent, it should serve the sword in his hand.

"Combining the complicated and profound sword intent and sword power into one sword, is it possible that this is what the Lord of the One Night City said about simplicity?"

Li Yunsheng said thoughtfully.

Although he has some clues, he knows that there is still a long way to go to reach the point where the Lord of the One Night City said that the road is simple.

In fact, what he didn't know was that the problem he was perplexed at the moment was also perplexed by every practitioner before entering the holy realm.

But those people are different from Li Yunsheng in that as long as they break through to the holy realm, all confusions will be solved, because this is the so-called gift of heaven.

But Li Yunsheng is doomed not to get these benefits by breaking through the realm, he can only realize it through continuous practice, if he can't comprehend, he can only stop here, this is the disadvantage of completely cutting off the cause and effect between him and the way of heaven.

"Let's go back to Hongli City first. We've been delayed for three days. I'm afraid Qingluo and the others will be worried."

Li Yunsheng glanced in the direction of Hongli City, and when he thought of disappearing for three days without a sound, he suddenly felt a little uneasy:
"It's only been three days. There shouldn't be any trouble."

……

Hongli City, Ouye's old house.

It took Li Yunsheng less than a stick of incense to rush back from the desert outside the city.

However, the scene in front of him at this time made Li Yunsheng's mood, which was not very high, sink to the bottom.

The inexplicable uneasiness in his heart finally came true at this moment.

——The grand old house of Ouye's family has been burnt beyond recognition. Some flames that have not been extinguished are still crackling, and the air is filled with a pungent burnt smell.

After a brief absence, the scene in front of him finally made Li Yunsheng tremble with anger.

Although he still doesn't know what happened in the past few days when he left, the person who dared to burn Ouye's old house in Hongli City, or the force that wanted to burn Ouye's old house, could only be the city lord of Xianmeng government people.

Li Yunsheng had noticed that the people from the City Lord's Mansion were monitoring Ou Ye's family very early on, but he didn't expect the other party to do it so quickly, and of course he didn't expect that he would stay outside the city for so long.

"Old, master, master... little, miss, miss..."

Just when Li Yunsheng was full of anger and annoyance, a weak and hoarse voice came from the ruins of the old house.

If it wasn't for his far better hearing than ordinary people, this faint shout would be hard to detect.

Following the direction of the voice, Li Yunsheng walked into the ruins of the old house.

The fire should have been set off last night. When Li Yunsheng walked among the ruins, he could still feel the scorching temperature of the ground on the soles of his feet.

Finally, in a corner of the ruins, he discovered the source of the weak cry.

I saw a figure that was so burnt that I couldn't see its face, and was crushed by a charred beam and a pile of rubble.

"Mother-in-law?"

Although the face was not clear, Li Yunsheng's spirit still found out the identity of the other party. She was the old servant of Ou Ye's family who was not very agile.

Like Qingluo and the others, Li Yunsheng always called her mother-in-law.

"Small, miss, save, save, save miss..."

After discovering Li Yunsheng, the old servant suddenly became agitated, and she struggled to get up.

"Don't move, I'll rescue you first."

Seeing that the rubble was torn apart by her struggle and was about to collapse again, Li Yunsheng quickly stretched out his hand to hold her down.

"Don't, don't, I, save, save, little..."

Just as Li Yunsheng carefully covered the old woman's body with sword energy and dragged her out of the hot rubble bit by bit, the old woman screamed like she was about to cry, but she couldn't speak clearly. How can not say clearly.

"I know, I know what you want to say, don't worry, Qingluo and the others will be fine, mother-in-law, don't worry."

While comforting her, Li Yunsheng secretly sealed the meridians of her whole body with zhenqi in order to alleviate the pain caused by the burns all over her body.

It wasn't until the old woman whose meridians were sealed slowly fell asleep that Li Yunsheng carried her to a cleaner place and put her down.

Then I saw him put a finger on the old woman's forehead.

Based on what he knew about the old lady, it was basically impossible for her to tell clearly what happened last night, let alone the fact that she was seriously injured at this time.

So early in the morning, he planned to probe the old woman's memory with the power of his soul, a method he had learned from the memory of hell ghosts.

This old woman basically has no cultivation base, and Li Yunsheng entered her soul in the state of Sanji, with almost no barriers.

However, within a few breaths, he had detected the old man's memories of the past few days.

The first thing that entered Li Yunsheng's consciousness was a scene from two days ago.

In the picture, under the scorching sun, on the towering iron castle of Hongli City, a row of hanging heads are blowing in the wind.

And not far away directly opposite the iron castle, a thin and small boy knelt on the ground motionless.

Even if he didn't see the figure's face, Li Yunsheng could still recognize that this boy was Tang Beidou.

"Grandma, let's go."

Just when Li Yunsheng was wondering why Beidou would kneel here, Qing Luo's figure appeared in his sight.

It may be because the old lady was traumatized, her memory is very fragmented, after Qing Luo's figure appeared, the scene immediately shifted to Ou Ye's old house.

"What to do, what to do, the big stone has not returned, and grandpa is gone, what to do..."

In the old house, Qingluo rubbed her fingers anxiously and paced back and forth in the yard.

"This Big Dipper, if he doesn't come back, he will be sunburned to death. Where are the people from Xianmeng watching? I can't go there."

Her face was very ugly.

But when we got here, the picture was cut off again, and Li Yunsheng had to continue to search for the picture of last night in the old woman's spirit.

"found it."

Finally, Li Yunsheng discovered another scene about these three days from the old woman's intermittent memory.

To be precise, the time when this scene appeared was last night.

"That idiot of Beidou deliberately tricked me back, saying that his father was not among those people, but in the end his father was killed, and I couldn't help him. Now he knelt there motionless for three days, I don't know why Do, I want to pull him back, but I'm afraid that people from Xianmeng will suspect me, what should I do about Grandpa?"

In the picture, Qingluo finally waited until Ouyetan came out of the sword furnace.

Weeping with joy, Qing Luo told Ou Yetan all about what happened in the past three days.

It was also until this time that Li Yunsheng finally understood why Beidou would kneel in front of the square in Iron Castle.

But before Ou Yetan in the picture could comfort Qingluo, a group of people rushed into the old house.

Judging by the attire of these people, they are the city guards of Hongli City, and the leaders of this group of city guards are an old man and a middle-aged man.

The old man looked at Grandpa Qingluo arrogantly and said:
"Ou Ye's family colluded with Qiushui's rebellious party and took this grandson away. This house was set on fire."

The following scene was a mess, the old woman was afraid to stay in the house and refused to come out, Li Yunsheng could only hear the sound of fighting outside the house and sporadic conversations.

"Qingluo, go away!"

"Qingluo, calm down, don't use that thing! Don't use it!"

"Haha, the treasure of Ouye's family is indeed in this girl's body!"

Immediately after "嗡", a bell rang and exploded, directly deafening the old woman's ears, which were not very good in the first place.

That's the end of the picture.

Li Yunsheng, who withdrew his consciousness, showed no expression on his face. Without saying a word, he took out a spirit stone from his cuff, and then activated his true essence with the dragon painting formula, directly refining the spirit stone into a drop of spiritual liquid in his palm, Drop into the mouth of the old woman.

After doing all this, he slowly stood up, with an extremely cold and gloomy expression on his face, and said:

"Your eating looks are too ugly, right?"

Although there are only a few scenes, Li Yunsheng has almost sorted out what happened in the past three days.

He suddenly discovered that, just as the city lord of One Night City said, when dealing with people like Xianmeng Hell Prison, you may really not be able to solve any problems if you just tolerate and dodge them.
