It means Jiuxiaoxu long sword

Chapter 13 The Way to Heaven, Asking the Heart, Killing the Way of the Sword and Killing All Evils
The wind was biting, and the sky was full of frost and snow.

Perhaps at first Chu Lishang would shudder because of the bone-piercing chill, but after a long time, he would become numb.The curly eyelashes are covered with frost, and the long black hair is also covered with ice and snow.Chu Li just stood firmly in the wind and snow, holding the sword in his right hand, without moving.

Not far away, Gu Chenyuan dispersed the wind and snow above his head, looked at the little figure standing in the frost and snow with interest, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Very stubborn..."

Looking at the sky that was gradually brightening, Gu Chenyuan raised his hand slightly, drew a few sword symbols in the air, and then pointed a little, those sword symbols turned into domineering sword energy and came out towards Chu Li .

The long period of silence except for the wind and snow made Chu Li's five senses very sensitive. Almost as soon as the sword qi struck, Chu Li's sword was lifted up, her toes were lightly tapped to borrow strength, and her body was spinning and dancing. Shaking off the frost and snow, he fought with the sword energy.

Standing for a long time made Chu Li's limbs a little stiff, and he didn't notice for a while that his forearm was cut open by the howling sword energy.Fortunately, the student uniform has a certain protective function, otherwise the forearm may not be protected.Chu Li knew very well who the sword energy was coming from, so she was not afraid in her heart.Moreover, the Fuling Sword's power doubles after it recognizes its owner. Even though Chu Li cannot display the full strength of this sword, he can still fight against the sword energy released by Gu Chenyuan casually.

After all, Gu Chenyuan would not kill himself, at most he would suffer some grinding.

The east is enlightened, and the sword breaks through the early sun.

Gu Chenyuan waved his hand to dissipate the sword energy, and walked in front of Chu Li: "It's not cold anymore?"

Chu Li opened her lips that were bloodless from the cold, and replied, "It's not cold."

"Heh." Gu Chenyuan didn't expose her, but took her into the sky and headed towards the mountain gate, "It stands to reason that new disciples have to walk the journey to heaven and open the door of questioning one's heart once when they start. It has been delayed for a long time, and now it is time to go for a walk."

Tongtian road test qualifications, ask the heart and mind.

Tian Zezong always recruits disciples between the ages of five and 15, because most of the children at this age are unsettled, even if they have some evil thoughts in their hearts, they can get back.As for cultivation, there are no specific requirements.

Some disciples come from small families that are attached to the sect, so most of them have opened pulses before coming to the sect to apprentice, and even have stepped into Qi refining; and more are sent by the sect to recruit disciples from the human world. They may have heard of the existence of immortal cultivators in this world, but due to the limited geographical location, they have almost never practiced cultivation, let alone possessed cultivation.

Therefore, Tongtiantu never chooses new disciples based on their cultivation base, but considers a person's luck, spiritual root and many other aspects.It's just that when it comes to luck, it's elusive, and it's rare for Yuanying Zhenjun to find out.Therefore, spiritual roots have become the most direct means to identify disciples.However, this action does not mean that monks with five spiritual roots will not be able to enter. What saves them is the luck discovered by Tongtiantu.

As for asking the heart door, it is even simpler.

Ask your heart, ask your heart, and those with evil thoughts will never pass this pass.

For these two checkpoints, Chu Li is fearless.

Standing at the starting point of Tongtian Road, there are endless long steps that reach far into the sky, and Chu Li is just barely standing on the first step.

The wind and snow all over her body dissipated, and the whole road seemed to appear between heaven and earth out of thin air. Chu Li guessed that this should be some kind of space formation, but she couldn't understand the knowledge in this area for the time being.

The first stage, the second stage...

Until the 100th step, Chu Li didn't feel any special at all.

It was as if she was the only one left in this vast world, and the endless long steps under her feet.A monk practiced with the word "self", and this lonely environment undoubtedly implied this point.

A monk may have many relatives and friends in his life, but he is born in the world, and he is a guest on a long journey. Even if he is accompanied by friends for a while, he can only go on this road by himself in the end.Life is lonely.

Maybe it was only at the end of the practice that I found out that my former friends had long since died, or they had gone the same way and disappeared from each other.Even if his cultivation is as high as the sky, he can only watch the clouds in the sky and the clouds in the sky, and the flowers in the world bloom and fall, all alone, standing alone in this vast world.

"So, the meaning of practice is loneliness."

There was some confusion in Chu Li's eyes, but even so, she resolutely walked to the next step.

As Chu Li moved forward, the dark stone door above his head opened a little.

In the next step, the cold stone steps suddenly became slippery, and warm blood flowed down the long steps to Chu Li's feet, soaking the soles of her shoes.

The sky dimmed, and there seemed to be an evil ghost roaring beside him, but Chu Li turned a deaf ear to it, and walked up the steps stepping on the blood on the ground.

How about blood all over the floor?Even if there are thorns and thorns ahead, she will overcome the thorns and ride the wind.

Just like there are thousands of monks in this world, which one of the high-ranking monks has not climbed step by step on the bones of others, and whose hands have never been stained with blood?Regardless of immortals and demons, only the heart.

Chu Li didn't know how long she had been walking, but even so, she never took a step back.

"Chu Li, you are not afraid of the loneliness on the road of cultivation, and you are not afraid that the road ahead is covered with blood, but can you let go of the obsession in your heart?"

"Obstinence?" Chu Li's blank eyes instantly became clear, "What is obsession? They planted karma in my path, and I naturally have to finish it myself."

"Really?" The voice was vast, as if it came from the sky.

Chu Li looked at the sky, but couldn't see anything except the endless floating clouds.

"Yes. Demons and evil spirits deserve to die, not to mention they hurt my closest relatives. Therefore, in this life, I must slay demons, eliminate demons, and defend the way."

"Hehe... I hope you can still be firm in this way in the future." The voice chuckled a few times, and disappeared completely in Chu Li's consciousness after leaving these words.

The black stone door above his head was completely opened, and an evil cultivator covered in black air appeared in front of Chu Li.

"Yo, little baby, we meet again." Chuli recognized the black dharma sword floating on Xiexiu's chest. It was the one stopped by his grandfather on the spirit boat that day, so the identity of this person was about to be revealed. .

"I let you go before, but I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."

Chu Li held the Fuling Sword in his hand expressionlessly: "A mere heart demon, I can drive you away the first time, and I can kill you the second time."

"is it?"

With Xie Xiu's soft drink, the dharma sword stabbed towards Chu Li quickly, just like it was on the spirit boat that day.It's a pity that this evil cultivator is just a phantom demon, and Chu Li is not Tianming.

What she wants to do is not to block, but to kill.

The sword energy swept through the sky, shaking the surrounding fields.Before the black dharma sword could resist it, it turned into black smoke and disappeared, and even the wild evil cultivator disappeared without a trace.

"Hahaha...we will meet again..."

"Goodbye, I can also cut it with one sword." Chu Li retracted the long sword, and in front of him was a magnanimous road to the sky.

This time, Chu Li's side was free from all kinds of demons and evils that hindered her progress, and what greeted her was a glimmer of enlightenment and a golden glow.

Outside the space, a wave finally appeared on Gu Chenyuan's calm face.

"Luck...and, killing swordsmanship."
