Chapter 629 Deterrence
A dark palace.
In the surrounding towering dense forests, ghost screams could be heard from time to time. Against the backdrop of the surrounding environment, it looked particularly eerie and strange, and it could be said that strangers should not enter.
The doors and windows of the palace in front of me are wide open, and a red blanket leads directly to the main hall, but the color of this blanket looks very abrupt, as bright red as the color of blood.
On the two rows of the red carpet stood many copper candlesticks of different shapes. The candlesticks were lit with dark green lights, illuminating the surroundings in a gloomy and gloomy atmosphere, as if entering a ghost land.
In front of the palace, a marble-paved stone staircase descends straight down.
There are thousands of stone steps, and each stone step is three feet wide and longer than ten feet. The huge stone steps spread down to the side of the dense forest.
And on the thousands of feet of stone steps that spread down, a woman in a white dress walked among them, staring solemnly at the opened main entrance of the dark palace in front of her.
I don't know how many years this palace has existed, and the main entrance is already a little dilapidated, but the vermilion lacquer that has not yet peeled off and the gilt roof that has peeled off also testify to the previous glory of this place.
The once magnificent palace is now dilapidated and reduced to the point where it is occupied by ghosts.
"Why!"
Thinking of this, the woman in white couldn't help sighing inwardly, and looked at the door with a complicated expression.
Just at this moment, a ray of black light suddenly flew from the sky, directly towards the woman in white. When the white-clothed woman had no time to react, she immediately saw an object floating in front of her body, a turtle-like thing, which looked a little ferocious, with a mouthful of fangs exposed, and on the back of the thing, there was a turtle shell. There is also a break.
The face of the woman in white became very complicated. This object is exactly the appearance of the legendary beast Baxia, and the cut on its back is actually the inscription on its back.
"It's Lin Ling..."
The woman in white came back from her trance, and immediately pinched the magic formula with both hands, and saw a streak of spiritual energy penetrate into the object under the divine beast.
Immediately, the broken inscription, carved with black as ink as the overlord of the beast, suddenly burst into space fluctuations, and then a touch of divine consciousness rushed into the forehead of the woman in white.
In the consciousness of the woman in white, a picture suddenly emerged.
The woman in white first saw the face of the refined man who looked at death like home, and behind the refined man, a blood-colored saber light came in an instant, emitting a sharp light and a bloody aura. This was just a remnant left by the refined man. , still makes the woman in white feel strongly.
The bloody sword light fell, and the elegant man's face lost its former expression.
At this moment, a mask like dead tree bark appeared behind the elegant man with dull eyes. It was only then that the woman in white noticed that the word 'twenty' was impressively engraved on the corner of the dead bark mask.
No. 10 is completely unaware of all this.
If he had known that the mask of No. 20 had been hated by others, he would not have rashly left Ye Tian with the dead bark mask of No. 20.
This is tantamount to leaving Ye Tian with an unknown enemy.
Far away in Donghe County, Ye Tian didn't know what happened to No. 20's dead bark mask. At this moment, because of this battle, his body's spiritual power was consumed enormously. If it wasn't for his understanding of Sword Pill, Through it, he can already control one or two, otherwise, I am afraid that he would not be so indifferent now.
Ye Tian took out two high-grade spirit stones and held them in his hands to recover his spirit power, still thinking in his heart.
But this time, the loss at the outer gate of the Heavenly Sword Gate was really not small.
Seeing Ye Tian take out two top-grade spirit stones to restore his spirit power, Zhu Qian just pouted slightly, thinking that this move was really extravagant.
After paddling back, the Concentration Pill refined by Ye Tian is very popular in Tianjianmen, and the exchange for spirit stones is naturally very large, which can support such a luxury.
Just during the time he entered the Heavenly Sword Sect, he has made a lot of spirit stones, and even Zhu Qian, who resells these Concentration Pills, has made a lot of money.
Except for all of these, you will not hear about other things among the disciples of the outer sect, because the daily priority of the disciples of the outer sect, besides cultivation, is to make some groceries that the disciples of the inner sect do not do. The internal struggles perform their own duties, and there is very little spare time to participate in the affairs of the inner sect, so even if Ye Tian hangs around with many outer sect disciples all day, few people know about his insider affairs.
Because Yuan Chen has already reached the early stage of Yuan Ying, he also has a few inner disciples in Tianjianmen as friends, and occasionally knows Ye Tian's details from them.
The others watched Ye Tian use top-grade spirit stones to recover his spiritual power, such a profligate act, but they couldn't help feeling a little jealous!
But everyone also knew that Ye Tian was the only one who really killed Xu Hu.
They dare not covet Deacon Ye's spirit stone.
Previously, dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators died among the inner disciples of Tianjianmen, and they urgently needed to be replenished by the outer disciples, but now, several people from the outer sect died tragically in this mission. It can be said that many people in the outer sect who might not have been eligible to be selected as inner sect disciples now have the opportunity.
And this opportunity is in Ye Tian's hands.
Because of the cultivation of Sword Heart and Sword Pill, the cultivation base of the entire Tianjian Sect is generally weaker than other sects, so these useful disciples are extremely precious, even these outer disciples whose future is not very bright.
For the future of Tianjianmen, it is obviously not enough to rely entirely on the core disciples and inner disciples. Although the outer disciples are generally not very talented, the disciples of Tianjianmen will only be worse, but compared with ordinary people, these outer disciples are not lacking. People with potential.
There are even a lot of people who have accumulated a lot of knowledge, or have strange bones, and are late bloomers. It is also occasionally the case that outer disciples surpass inner disciples.
This is why Tianjianmen holds the promotion competition for outer disciples every year. Through the competition and competition between outer disciples and inner disciples, a group of people are finally selected to be promoted to inner disciples, and the sect increases its investment in them.
This time, only five people were promoted.
Originally, these people had hopes of being promoted as inner disciples, but now, they all fell silent. To kill Xu Hu, a group of people rushed over confidently, but six people died in less than two hours.
The others are dead!
After all, the disciples of the outer sect are not valued by the Tianjian sect. In addition to the experience, casualties are inevitable. Although it is a pity, it is still acceptable in the sect.
However, Yang Wenyan is dead!
The Yang family in Xilei Mountain is an existence that Tianjianmen dare not provoke. You know, at the beginning, because Zhu Qian was selling Ningshen Pill to Yang Wenyan, the transaction of a few spirit stones finally developed to the point where Elder Zhu personally pleaded with Xilei Mountain. What does that mean?
It shows that Yang Wenyan's status in the Yang family is not low, and this person must take revenge!
After Zhu Qian was happy, he began to worry!
Yang Wenyan's death, to say the least, was due to his own arbitrariness. He boasted that he had the Thunderbolt spell refined by the ancestors of the Yang family. No one in the transformation stage would be his opponent, let alone those in the middle stage of alchemy. Xu Hu.
The results of it!
Not only did Yang Wenyan fail to see Xu Hu, but he was also killed by his own stupidity. The key point is that when he died, no one was by his side. Therefore, from Ye Tian, the deacon of the outer sect, to Zhu Qian, the grandson of the elder, to all the surviving outer sect disciples, no one can prove that Yang Wenyan How did he die.
In this way, this matter has become a big trouble.
If the Yang family in Xilei Mountain didn't know about Yang Wenyan's death, and went back to explain, and the sect sent someone to inform Yang Wenyan of his death, even if the Yang family in Xilei Mountain would be angry at that time, they would not directly blame the Heavenly Sword Sect, or even kill them directly.
If...if the Yang family in Xilei Mountain knew about Yang Wenyan's death.
I am afraid that when we return to the sect now, Yang Wenyan's father, the head of the Yang family, Yang Yunhe, is already waiting for everyone to go back at Tianjianmen, and they are all pressing for questions.
Zhu Qian had experienced it before, and had contact with people from the Yang family, so he naturally knew something about the Yang family. Regarding Yang Yunhe, Zhu Qian had never really met him. However, judging from his behavior before, the other party could vent his anger on his son Yang Wenyan for a few spirit stones, which is enough to show that this person is an extremely protective person.
How terrible would it be for such a calf protector to get revenge after knowing that his son had died?
"Deacon Ye, the loss of many fellow disciples this time is all due to my ineffective command. If I could transmit the sound transmission to all the juniors to leave in time, maybe the villain Xu Hu would not be allowed to succeed, and the juniors would not die." After a long silence, Yuan Chen stood up and said for self-reflection.
"Life is a matter of life and death. Casualties are unavoidable during the experience. Since they died under Xu Hu's hands, it is because their cultivation is not good enough. Naturally, I can't blame you." Ye Tian said indifferently.
Now everyone is reflecting on what happened just now. It can be said that it is the awakening of the first time to kill the enemy, and it can also be regarded as embarking on the road of cultivating immortals. , the truth of fighting with life.
Ye Tian didn't want to preach, besides, who would listen to the truth in books and words, this kind of truth can only be comprehended by himself.
Only by truly seeing that cultivating immortals is not easy, that the journey of cultivating immortals is unpredictable, and that life and death are unpredictable, can these people's fighting spirit be stimulated, and can they have the opportunity to go further in the future, and even surpass themselves, and restore the great reputation of Tianjianmen thousands of years ago.
"That's what I said, but after all, I'm from the same sect, and I'm already dead, after all..." Someone choked up.
"When I joined Tianjianmen, I knew that there would be such a day when everyone would die. What's the use of being sad? Instead of thinking about their death, you might as well think about how you can survive." After waking up, Chen Xuhui was obviously determined. Many, never mentioning about Chen Xuguang's death.
When everyone saw Chen Xuhui speaking, they all fell silent. Since they knew what Chen Xuhui meant, they stopped talking.
Compared with the others who survived, Chen Xuhui should be the saddest one. His brother died and his arm was broken. Even if the broken arm can be recovered through Tiancaidibao, but brother is dead, can you not be sad?
There was another silence, and the sky had already become slightly brighter.
The quiet city of Donghe County, facing the surface of the Donghe River passing to the east, the sky is red with the morning glow, it is really beautiful.
"It's a pity that the hundreds of thousands of people in Donghe County will never see such a beautiful morning glow again." Zhu Qian sighed quietly.
Ye Tian glanced at Zhu Qian with a strange look, but he didn't expect that Zhu Qian also had a time of worry.
"Yeah, hundreds of thousands of people, if you say no, they will be gone." Yuan Chen sighed.
"By the way, who of you has seen that enchantress? After she killed Yang Wenyan, why did she suddenly disappear out of thin air?" Zhu Qian suddenly thought of that enchanting woman. At the beginning, No. 10 concluded that she killed Yang Wenyan.
witch!
Yes, where did that witch go?
When the others heard the word demon girl, they released all their spiritual consciousness immediately. It's just that the huge Donghe County City has long been empty of people. As for whether there are other living people, everyone agrees that it is impossible.
Before Ye Tian killed Xu Hu, he didn't feel that there were others in the county.
Presumably he escaped!
"If I observe carefully in the air, maybe when the witch escapes, I can still find his trace." Everyone felt a little uncomfortable when they thought of the witch who killed Yang Junyi escaping, and Yuan Chen said introspection with regret.
"Senior Brother Yuan, it's not your fault."
"We also made mistakes. Brother Yuan also estimated our safety, so he kept everyone at a certain distance. In comparison, that demon girl also took advantage of the loophole, and she escaped in the end."
"Senior Brother Yuan, don't blame yourself. Now we all remember this person, and we will find out when we go back to the sect and find someone."
"It doesn't matter who she is, we will definitely arrest her and apologize with death."
The outer sect disciples were not very popular in Tianjianmen, so naturally they have always been in the same breath. Now they escaped because of Ziji who killed Yang Wenyan. purpose.
Hearing everyone's words, Zhu Qian couldn't believe it, and looked at these outer disciples with astonishment.
"Clean up, everyone, we're going back." Ye Tian has already recovered more than half of his spiritual power, watching the half-rising sun, he is very clear in his heart, what should come will come after all, what should be faced is impossible dodge.
After some mutual comfort, the outer disciples who were still somewhat decadent had recovered a little bit. Everyone used a few small magic spells to sweep away their previous state of indifference and appearance, and they all raised their spirits and soared into the sky.
Now is the time to go back and return to life.
These days, when the Jianmen disciples returned, they already had some evil spirits on their bodies.
