Chapter 224: Ruined Temple, Cleared the Way, and Left
But in the bright and clear sky, more than 20 corpses in Yanjia Village were killed by a sword, and died cleanly. The tribe that once established an immortal dynasty on the land of Lingtianzhou completely disappeared in the long river of history.
Of course, strictly speaking, it is not dissipated. After all, the mortals in Yanjia Village can also be regarded as descendants of the Great Yan Dynasty. It’s just that with the death of those cultivators, the glory of their immortal cultivation era was completely buried by these mountains.
The seven people met in this way, which was a fate. Naturally, they went together for the rest of the journey.
Li Changxiao looked at Yan Shiliu teasingly and asked him jokingly, how was his show? Yan Shiliu recalled the previous chat and suddenly didn’t know what to think.
The mountains here are stacked, and it is really difficult to walk. Several people are very curious about Li Changxiao, but they dare not ask. However, after walking for a few days, everyone saw that the swordsman was the same as before, without any change, and gradually became warm.
The swordsman was a little jealous, but he dared not say anything. He could see that if everyone was trapped here, the two women would always choose the white-clothed swordsman.
One night.
Beside the campfire, the Gu girl looked at Li Changxiao with a smile, and asked him half-jokingly and half-tentatively whether he could not get out of this ghost place.
Li Changxiao nodded, and told them without hesitation that this mountain terrain was a trap.
When the spiritual energy was not exhausted, there was another better name: the ten-sky and ten-earth terrain, also called "square heaven and earth and round".
In this terrain, the sky is square and the earth is round, like a huge cage, trapping everything here.
This terrain is extremely special, which can be seen from the fact that the spiritual energy has been exhausted for four hundred years, but it can still trap monks.
Even if you fly, you can't fly out.
But this kind of terrain has something more special.
It is said that if someone can break through this terrain, they can get some great benefits.
When practicing, monks pay attention to breaking through many barriers and going against the will of heaven. Many monks like to regard some dangerous places and desperate places as one of their own barriers. If they can cross or conquer them, they will be unstoppable and their spirits will soar to the sky, which will help them break through.
This is why many monks always go to dangerous places or travel to find opportunities for breakthroughs when they are about to break through.
The more difficult the barrier is, the more benefits you will get, which may be: blessings, luck, momentum, reputation... and so on. Don't underestimate these gains. They seem to be very empty and not as real as spirit stones and magic. In fact, the benefits of these things can be shown at all times, just like the appearance of the secular world. Superior appearance will not directly bring you wealth, but it is easier to gain favor than ordinary people... and so on. There are many benefits, and there will be many more conveniences invisibly.
Blessing, luck, momentum, reputation, etc., also have similar effects. Although cultivators also look at appearance, they look more at "atmosphere", and appearance is also considered as part of "atmosphere". If a person has great luck and fame, the atmosphere he presents will also be colorful, and he can get a lot of convenience when walking in the cultivation world.
There is a dangerous place in Lingtianzhou, which Li Changxiao has been to before, called "Hengduanyuan", where he obtained the Hundred Ghost Techniques and subdued the ghost servant Yu Luosha.
Hengduanyuan was once regarded as a pass by many physical cultivators and was very popular with physical cultivators. The same is true.
According to legend, if someone breaks through this "square heaven and earth circle", he can get a blessing, which will accompany him throughout his life. It is extremely mysterious and can increase his lifespan and luck, and can also directly increase his strength.
Of course, Li Changxiao did not tell a few people about these things about cultivation. They would not understand even if he told them. He just told them that it would be difficult to get out of this world by walking alone.
After hearing this, the faces of several people all darkened. The thin old Taoist priest asked Li Changxiao if there was any way to get out. He called Li Changxiao "senior". In fact, with his age, there was no problem in calling Li Changxiao "senior", but Li Changxiao didn't like this title, so he asked several people to call him by his name.
Li Changxiao told the old Taoist priest that he had no way at the moment and was still thinking about it, otherwise he would have left long ago.
That night, everyone had a simple meal and set out on the journey at noon the next day. When they walked to a flat grassland, Cai Wei came to him to ask for swordsmanship with a shy look on her face. Li Changxiao refused. He really had nothing to teach the other party about worldly martial arts.
As for the matter of cultivation, it was even more impossible to teach her. Cai Wei, who was rejected, blushed and ran several miles away. On the way, she was seen by the magic master, who teased her a few times and her face suddenly became redder.
The few people were not stupid. They knew that the swordsman in white was not an ordinary person. It was totally inappropriate to ask him for swordsmanship.
How could Cai Wei not know? She just admired him and found an excuse to get close to him. The magic master found that since Li Changxiao returned to deal with him, the only two women had become more reserved.
Although he often teased, he also understood that it was human nature. It was just that he was sometimes absent-minded. People from the outside world would never think that the famous sword fairy who was the best among all the male swordsmen in the world would be like this here.
After walking for a few more days.
The exit was hard to find, and the thin old Taoist gave up completely.
Li Changxiao sighed.
It was not a solution to keep wasting time like this. If he really couldn't find the exit, he could only use a stupid method.
That night.
The group of seven people stayed in a dilapidated temple. The dilapidated temple was located between two mountains. It was dark and damp. The mountains and trees on both sides filtered out the moonlight layer by layer, and only a few pitiful rays fell into the temple.
The gray walls were covered with moss. It was impossible to tell how many years it had been there. The statues in the temple collapsed, and there were weeds everywhere. There was also a nest of foxes in the corner.
Everyone entered the temple, pulled out the weeds, and cleared a piece of open space. This would be the place to rest tonight.
Li Changxiao asked the thin old Taoist priest to tell him which direction would be more auspicious.
The thin old Taoist priest told him that it was most auspicious to go northwest.
Hearing this, Li Changxiao took a nap and fell into a deep sleep.
The eyelids of several people were also heavy. They were very tired after a whole day's journey. They chatted for a while and gradually fell asleep.
They slept very deeply.
To be honest, since the white-clothed swordsman rejoined the team, the spirits of several people have obviously improved a lot, and their eyebrows have gradually relaxed.
In fact, several people just tacitly understood that they were ready to be a "savage" in this deep mountain forest.
It seems so.
The reputation and past achievements of the outside world seemed to have turned into floating clouds.
Yan Shiliu had a dream in his sleep.
In the dream, it seemed that someone told him to show him one last trick.
…
He didn't know how long he had slept.
A ray of sunlight shone into the ruined temple.
Yan Shiliu stretched lazily.
His brows were slightly wrinkled.
He felt that the sunlight was dazzling, so he put his hands against his eyes and squinted slightly.
"The weather is really good today."
He murmured subconsciously, and his mood became cheerful.
This deep mountain forest has tall trees, and it is usually difficult to see the sun.
And this ruined temple is located between two mountains.
It is cold and damp.
It can be seen how precious this ray of sunlight is to be able to shine into this place.
After he got up, he brushed off the dust on his body. At the same time, several other people began to wake up one after another.
"I haven't seen such a big sun for a long time." The magic refiner was surprised.
The thin old Taoist nodded, and suddenly, as if he had noticed something, he took out the compass from the bag behind him.
His face suddenly lit up, and then he thought that he was presbyopic, so he rubbed his eyes up and down, and then looked at it again.
Unbelievable.
At this time.
Cai Wei looked at the place where Li Changxiao fell asleep.
It was empty.
There was a row of footprints on the ground, leading to the outside of the temple.
She followed the footprints and walked out of the ruined temple.
Suddenly, a dazzling sunlight made her unable to open her eyes.
When she saw the scene in front of her clearly.
She couldn't close her mouth for a while.
