The road to Jianghu started from the martial arts hall

Chapter 325: Emperor Sword Rubbing
In an instant, Fang Xun decisively let go and flew back, his dream was overturned and golden light burst out, like a blooming golden lotus that blocked out all forces that were not beneficial to itself.

Holy Lotus Transforms the Universe——

boom--

The golden lotus barrier collided with the terrifying power released by the Human Emperor Sword. Fang Xun took the opportunity to fly backwards and quickly distanced himself from the two.

Another gust of air swept over, and Fang Xun retreated a hundred feet before he stood still again, looking calmly at the two people opposite him.

After a great battle, the battlefield has turned into a white land.

The earth has been turned into glass crystals by the high temperature, and the sunlight shining on it is colorful and beautiful.

Three figures stood on the colorful ground, facing each other, without saying a word.

However, the Holy Mother of White Lotus still stood where she was facing the erupting Human Emperor Sword. Pure and holy lotus flowers flowed towards the sword, as if she was contending with the power within the Human Emperor Sword.

Fang Xun frowned when he saw this and had some guesses in his mind.

"The Master is alive, and I'm afraid Cang Yun is also alive."

The Human Emperor Sword is a divine weapon. The divine sword has a spirit, so of course not everyone can hold it, not to mention that he and the White Lotus Mother had just killed Wan Ziqi.

Although Wan Ziqi is not the master of the Human Emperor Sword, he can at least use it normally. Fang Xun and the White Lotus Mother have been identified as enemies by this sword.

And the most important point is that the real owner of the Human Emperor Sword, Cang Yun, the fifth generation Human Emperor who sealed the earth veins and caused the spiritual power of heaven and earth to degenerate, may still be alive like the Master!

However, the moment Fang Xun grasped the hilt of the sword, his goal had been achieved.

In the martial arts hall, one can see magical weapons displayed on the weapon racks around.

And now, there is an ancient bronze sword at the very end.

Fang Xun didn't have much in mind for this sword. After all, he couldn't use it, but he was still somewhat interested in the inheritance of the Human Emperor contained within it.

After touching the Human Emperor Sword, the sword had been copied by the Martial Arts Hall and could be studied slowly in the future.

The purpose of Holy Mother White Lotus in killing Wan Ziqi was also to inherit the legacy of the Human Emperor. She held the trembling sword motionlessly, and beads of sweat gradually seeped out of her smooth forehead.

Xing Shanlie on the side also stepped back a little and just waited quietly.

About ten breaths later, the White Lotus Mother's eyes lit up.

"Found it. The inheritance of the Human Emperor is indeed of great benefit to me!"

As if she got what she wanted, she suddenly let go.

hum-

The Human Emperor Sword suddenly emitted a golden light and made a buzzing sound, and it seemed that it was about to break through the air on its own.

At this moment, Xing Shanlie, who had been watching, suddenly took action.

With a swish, a pitch-black chain with dense inscriptions on the surface was swung out and tightly wrapped around the Human Emperor Sword.

The blood-colored inscription glowed brightly, as if it had come alive. Runes squirmed and spread to the sword body, spreading at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It seemed like some kind of seal. After the blade of the Human Emperor Sword was covered with runes, the light dimmed and the runes disappeared. The appearance became ordinary and no longer attracted attention.

At this time Fang Xun spoke calmly: "Congratulations to you for getting what you wished for. What you want should be the method for the Human Emperor Sword to summon the power of all people, right?"

After seeing the power of the Human Emperor Sword, this is easy to guess.

It is also a path to gather people. The White Lotus Mother also needs to inject her own thoughts into the hearts of every believer.

Wan Ziqi can summon warriors within a hundred miles to contribute their strength by simply waving the Human Emperor Sword.

A quick comparison will reveal the difference between the two.

If the White Lotus Mother could also do what the Human Emperor Sword did, being able to transmit power remotely just by having faith in herself, that would truly be against the will of heaven.

And now she has also obtained this inheritance from the Human Emperor Sword.

She seemed to be in a good mood as she had gotten what she wanted, and a faint smile appeared on the face of the White Lotus Mother.

"I would also like to thank you for your help, but it's a pity that you won't give me a chance to digest this inheritance immediately."

As they spoke, their eyes collided in the air, and the atmosphere became oppressive again.

Xing Shanlie, who was standing by, easily sensed the tension between the two, and he suddenly spoke.

"You are not the Ghost Face Man. When the Ghost Face Man killed the Seven Killers, he was at most at the Tongmai Realm. He could not have been at the Zhenwu Realm."

Fang Xun said calmly: "No, I was the one who killed your Seven Killers, and I am indeed the Ghost-Faced Man, but I am not the Ghost-Faced Man, because I am not a human being!"

When he said the last few words, Fang Xun's voice changed, as if the voices of thousands of men, women, young and old overlapped together, echoing in the void.

The White Lotus Mother seemed to have finally seen through Fang Xun's background and explained to Xing Shanlie in a calm tone.

"His path is similar to mine. The ghost-faced man you know should have merged his consciousness with his, or theirs."

Xing Shanlie's pupils shrank suddenly when he heard that. He then looked at Fang Xun carefully and indeed saw some clues.

"Such a complex Buddhist aura. The consciousness of more than a hundred people merged into one body. The desire to use one's own heart to represent the will of heaven. There are actually masters like you who have never come to the world in Buddhism. We have never heard of such a thing before."

After saying that, he also glanced at the White Lotus Mother strangely. No wonder there seemed to be tension between the two of them.

Judging from the foundation of the two, they both followed the path of replacing the will of Heaven with their own hearts, constantly integrating the consciousness of all spirits in heaven and earth, and finally achieving the Way of Heaven.

But there can only be one Heavenly Way, and neither of them will give in. This is a fight to the death!
Shaking his head, Xing Shanlie said calmly: "The grudge between you two has nothing to do with me. The purpose of this trip has been achieved, so I won't stay any longer."

After saying that, he turned around and was about to fly into the air. Fang Xun suddenly asked, "May I ask King Miao, this time when the Tianli Sect started the uprising, King Yue was killed by you, Heishuiyuan, but why did the Miao army withdraw from Hongfengkou?" More than two months ago, after the death of King Yue, Hongfengkou was in chaos.

However, the actions of the Miao army were extremely strange. If the 800,000-strong army took advantage of this great opportunity to break through the pass, they could easily march straight into and capture the entire Linzhou.

However, they did not take advantage of the heavy casualties suffered by the border masters to attack, but instead retreated to the deep mountains of the royal court.

Before, everyone else's attention was attracted by the Tianli Sect, and for a moment they ignored the movements of the Miao army on the border.

Fang Xun was not interested in thinking about these things, but now it is different.

After Wan Ziqi died, he would become the husband of the King of Yue. The next step would be to quietly farm and develop his career, but he had to consider the movements of the Miao region in the south.

Now that Xing Shanlie, the Miao King, was in front of him, he simply asked his doubts directly.

Xing Shanlie said lightly.

"The Shiwan Mountains are vast and rich in resources, which is enough for us to survive.

We are not the barbarians living in the bitter cold of the Northern Plains. We do not need to covet the fertile land of the Central Plains. It is easy to seize Linzhou when the opportunity arises, but it will inevitably lead to a shocking war with Daxuan in Linzhou afterwards.

There is a very good saying in your Central Plains: War is a matter of great importance to a state, a matter of life and death, a road to survival or destruction, and it must be carefully considered.

For a country, war is always the last resort. This meaningless war will only cause countless people under my rule to die meaninglessly. I will not do it!"

Fang Xun immediately looked sideways, this Miao King was so murderous and violent when he was fighting.

I really can't tell that he has his own strategies and vision, and is not short-sighted.

In other words, it is not that the other party does not want to march into the Central Plains, but
"Waiting for the seal of the capital to be broken and the Central Plains to change!"

Fang Xun was thinking about something in his heart, but he praised: "The Miao King is wise, otherwise, countless tragedies would have happened if the war had started."

"Ghost Face Man, maybe we will have a chance to cooperate in the future."

After Xing Shanlie looked at him deeply, he said no more, turned around and flew away.

Fang Xun looked at him quietly, turning into a black dot and disappearing into the horizon, with something in mind.

"It is said that I, the ghost-faced man, killed Jiang Xing, the Seven Killers, and almost delayed the important event of Black Water Abyss, but King Miao's attitude towards me is a bit strange. Now it seems that the Black Water Abyss may not be a united front."

But this is easy to understand. The Black Water Abyss was only founded by a group of strong people who wanted to break through the realm in order to revive their spiritual inspiration.

They can all agree on the common goal of destroying the earth vein seal, but other things are not certain.

Except for the Sword God Shangguan Wudi who is always alone, almost every strong man is a giant in his own right, has his own power, and also has his own interests.

The same is true for the Nine Mountains of Black Water Abyss. It is impossible for them to advance and retreat together in everything.

Fang Xun even had some malicious speculation that perhaps after the two sealing nodes were destroyed, disagreements had begun to arise within the Black Water Abyss.

Because the current environment is already capable of breaking through the Zhenwu Realm, continuing to destroy the sealed nodes is only to look forward to the God and Demon Realm.

But not everyone has the confidence to become a god or demon. The bottleneck of the Zhenwu Realm is already a natural chasm, and it will be even more difficult to break through the limit of gods and demons.

Therefore, there are people who are satisfied with the current environment and are unwilling to work hard for nothing.

In an instant, Fang Xun thought a lot, and finally took a deep breath, suppressed these thoughts in his heart, looked at the White Lotus Mother and sighed.

"Fellow Daoist, seeing you reminds me of those two old friends. If possible, I don't want to fight with you."

The two of them stared at each other from a distance, their expressions were calm. In an instant, their eyes met in the air hundreds of thousands of times.

Fang Xun did not say anything like "stop", "give up", or "turn back".

For a strong person who has reached the level of the White Lotus Holy Mother, once he has made up his mind about something, it is not something that can be easily changed by the words of others, let alone his own path.

But the White Lotus Mother smiled, making all the flowers pale in comparison.

"If you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening. If I die, I hope you will continue to walk along this path. If you can succeed, just let me know at my grave."

She also saw her own path in Fang Xun.

Fang Xun remained silent. It was obvious that the other party had misunderstood him, just like Xing Shanlie. What they saw in him was not his own way, but great wisdom.

The paths of Great Wisdom and the White Lotus Mother are very similar, yet they cannot be integrated.

Because no matter what, there can only be one heavenly way between heaven and earth!
Seeing Fang Xun remained silent, the White Lotus Mother said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, although I know your background, I still want to know the ending of your monster story."

At this moment, there was a loud explosion in the sky, like thunder.

Accompanied by a loud roar, four figures appeared in their sight.

"Thief, witch, both of you, die!"

With a whistling sound, four figures broke through the air and entered the scene one after another, and Wu Haoran was the first to bear the brunt. The Tianxin ruler in his hand was wrapped in a masculine and upright aura and blasted towards Fang Xun.

The remaining three, Zhen Yangzi, Xiao Qirong and Tan Chongtian, also had anger in their eyes and attacked the White Lotus Mother.

In just a blink of an eye, Wu Haoran rushed to within thirty feet of Fang Xun, which was already a face-to-face distance for a Zhenwu realm expert!

He looked at Wu Haoran who was attacking him angrily, his face turned cold and his mood instantly turned bad.

Facing this terrifying attack, Fang Xun stood still as a mountain, his palm pressing on the sword of Inverted Dreams.

In an instant, a golden lotus blossomed, and its petals fluttered, forming a barrier to protect the body.
