Chapter 428: East Shenzhou Shangqing Dao Palace, meeting old friends
Qingyun Realm, East Shenzhou.
Now, fifteen years have passed since the Nine Realms invaded the Qingyun Realm.
Fifteen years is just a blink of an eye for a monk.
But for mortals, it is enough for a baby to grow into a teenager.
A lot of things also happened in East Shenzhou during these fifteen years.
The most shocking thing was the destruction of Donghai Gate.
Although Donghaimen looked down on the wild land of East Shenzhou.
But a state can still produce a lot of resources.
Therefore, Donghaimen regards Dongshenzhou as its own back garden.
But because Donghaimen was destroyed, Dongshenzhou fell into complete chaos.
One reason is that without the suppression of the Donghai Sect, many sects in Dongshenzhou have different ideas.
For example, unify Eastern Shenzhou, establish a huge sect, and finally settle in Zhongzhou.
The second reason is that in the Shita Cave, which replaced the Donghai Gate, the custom of refining people into corpses is prevalent within the sect.
As a result, there was widespread resentment in East Shenzhou.
However, there is a huge gap between East Shenzhou and the East China Sea in the east of Zhongzhou.
As a result, it is not easy for the monks of Shiqie Cave to enter East Shenzhou.
Especially before the destruction of Donghai Gate, they had already destroyed the "Reverse Current Bridge" that could have directly crossed the Tianyuan and entered Dongshenzhou.
As a result, the control of Shiqie Cave over East Shenzhou can only rely on the teleportation arrays established by other small sects around the East China Sea.
However, launching a teleportation array not only consumes a lot of resources, but the two major sects in Zhongzhou, Bailian Sect and Canghuo Valley, also continuously attack the Shiqi Cave during this process.
Although Shidadong is quite strong, they are playing away.
So in these years, we have mainly focused on defense.
Want to gain a firm foothold in the East China Sea.
As a result, the disciples of Shiqie Cave also wanted to make a big fuss in East Shenzhou.
But I have the will but not the strength.
Even to appease the monks in Eastern Shenzhou.
Although Shiqie Cave secretly supported many sects in East Shenzhou.
But on the surface, it was said that the sects within East Shenzhou should make the decision themselves.
This made the situation in East Shenzhou even more complicated.
Every year, some sects are destroyed, and every year, new ones emerge, and this cycle repeats itself.
During these fifteen years, a sect called Shangqing Taoist Palace suddenly appeared.
The origin of this sect is very special.
At first, there were only two people in this sect.
A swordsman with a broken arm and a baby.
Although there are only two of them, the strength of the broken-arm sword cultivator from the Shangqing Taoist Palace is extremely terrifying.
Although he is only at the Jindan level, he has mastered many sword domains that even Yuanying sword cultivators have not mastered.
This enabled him to defeat many Nascent Soul Stage masters across levels.
Such strength can be considered good in Zhongzhou.
Not to mention East Shenzhou, which is known as the desert for spiritual practice.
With such a powerful leader, Shangqing Taoist Palace naturally attracted a lot of people.
In addition, the Shangqing Taoist Palace accidentally occupied the territory of a Yuanying sect in Eastern Shenzhou.
This resulted in an endless stream of monks joining in.
Although most of these monks are independent cultivators.
But there are also some people with outstanding talents.
Shangqing Taoist Palace, the main peak of Yiqu.
"Uncle Yi, Uncle Yi, look quickly, look quickly!"
"This is the Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivator I captured when I went down the mountain!"
On the main peak, a young girl excitedly carried a demon cultivator whose limbs had been cut off, and ran excitedly to a thatched cottage in the bamboo forest on the main peak.
Just as the girl was about to rush into the hut, an invisible sword intent was released from the house.
The sword intent was so powerful that it blew the girl away like a strong wind and she fell heavily to the ground.
The demon cultivator in her hand also fell heavily to the ground, letting out a scream.
The girl was obviously not prepared for this move and lay on the ground with a confused look on her face.
He seemed to have no idea why he was suddenly attacked by Uncle Yi's sword intent.
Could it be that she had done something wrong again? Before the girl could think about it, footsteps were heard in front of her.
Soon, a pair of Taoist shoes came into the girl's sight.
"No regrets. I have said it many times. Sword holders should be careful of spiritual light and take it righteously."
"Look at yourself now, do you still have that little bit of inspiration I mentioned?"
"At this moment, you are just like the butcher at the entrance of the village, killing enemies just for the sake of killing them. You are rampant and reckless. Stand up."
Hearing Uncle Yi's words, the girl stood up immediately.
The girl is wearing a green bamboo dress, her eyes are like autumn water, her facial features are delicate, and her slender eyebrows are like the misty water town, which makes people feel good.
But unlike the girl's gentle appearance, there is an indescribable sharpness and hostility hidden deep in her pupils.
But this sharpness is hidden in the deepest part of the girl's eyes, and it is difficult for ordinary people to detect.
Looking at the girl in front of him who was bowing her head to admit her mistake, Yi Hanqing understood that she was only bowing her head temporarily.
If she had listened to what I said, she wouldn't have been so ruthless when she drew her sword.
Thinking of this, Yi Hanqing couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
Although he has been using his sword power to suppress the violence in the girl's heart for many years.
But that hostility has not disappeared with the passage of time.
On the contrary, under the tempering of his sword intent, he became stronger and tougher.
Thinking of the girl's mother's gentle personality, and looking at the girl's face that is 80% similar to her mother's.
Yi Hanqing knew that he should take this opportunity to teach the girl who "tortured the enemy" a lesson.
But due to some special circumstances, coupled with guilt towards her mother.
As a result, Yi Hanqing finally gave up on this decision.
"Forget it, forget it. Some things are indeed too profound for you now."
"Just remember, it's not wrong to fight against demons and defend the way, and it's also not wrong to fight the enemy with all your strength."
"Your mistake is that you have already defeated the opponent, but you still swing the sword in a playful manner."
"In this state, what you are swinging is not a sword, but only the evil thoughts in your heart."
As he spoke, Yi Hanqing lowered his head to look at the demon cultivator brought by the girl.
The devil cultivator, although famous in Zhongzhou, is rarely seen.
After all, because of the Qingyun Sect, even the hundreds of sects in Zhongzhou have some evil intentions.
However, due to the strength of Qingyun Sect, he would try to restrain himself as much as possible.
This makes it very difficult for demon cultivators to survive in Zhongzhou.
Only some powerful demon cultivators with complicated backgrounds can gain a foothold in Zhongzhou by chance.
But the prerequisite is that the other party cannot make a big fuss.
Because once they make too much noise.
There is no need for the Qingyun Sect to take action. Many people among the hundreds of sects in Zhongzhou will take the initiative to grind these guys to ashes.
But in the current East Shenzhou, demonic cultivation is not only very popular.
And because of the disappearance of Donghaimen, Shidadong acquiesced.
This makes the number of demonic cultivators seem to be surpassing that of the righteous sects in Eastern Shenzhou.
This is definitely not good news.
What the girl in front of him brought was a demon cultivator who appeared in the territory near Shangqing Taoist Palace.
The opponent's strength is actually not weak, he is a cultivator at the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
In addition, the so-called demon cultivators are a group of people who take unconventional approaches and have cruel minds.
As a result, they often have very strong combat power among cultivators of the same level.
But he is such a powerful demon cultivator.
However, he was easily captured by the girl in front of him who was only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Looking at the wounds on his body, many of them are neither vital nor serious.
It was obviously the result of the girl playing a prank on the other person.
However, the girl's cultivation level was only at the foundation-building stage.
A sword cultivator at the first level of the Foundation Establishment Stage easily captured a demon cultivator at the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Not only that, this demon cultivator also had obvious sword injuries on his body.
A fifteen-year-old sword cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he has also comprehended the existence of sword intent.
The girl's talent is evident from this.
Even in Zhongzhou where many geniuses gather.
The girl's talent is also top-notch.
The girl was none other than the baby that Yi Hanqing brought back from Zhongzhou that year.
The daughter of childhood sweetheart Qu Linghong, Qu Buhui.
During these fifteen years, Yi Hanqing first taught Qu Buhui the way of swordsmanship and the methods of cultivation in a relationship that was half relative and half master.
However, he had already automatically withdrawn from the Qingyun Sect.
Yi Hanqing did not teach Qu Buhui the Qingyun Sect's skills.
Instead, he chose some other techniques.
Even so, Qu Buhui, who had a natural spiritual root and outstanding qualifications, still showed a strong talent for cultivation.
But this talent is not entirely a good thing for Qu Buhui.
Because her mother was used as a 'heart refining furnace' by the people of Tianxin Villa.
Qu Buhui's own true spirit was also affected.
There is an innate evil spirit that merges with his three souls and seven spirits, making them almost indistinguishable from each other.
Yi Hanqing thought of many ways to eliminate this hostility.
But they all ended in failure.
In the end, he could only choose to use his own sword power to help him suppress his hostility, which was only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.
If the girl's aptitude is average, Yi Hanqing can rely on his own cultivation.
It is entirely possible to make the rate at which the hostility in the girl's heart grow slower than the rate at which Yi Hanqing's cultivation level improves.
This helped the girl suppress her anger.
But the bad thing is that the girl is too talented.
It was so good that Yi Hanqing gradually felt that he could no longer suppress the girl's strength and was unable to do anything.
However, Yi Hanqing did not say these things.
Just try to bring the girl back on the right track as much as possible.
Although this method also cannot cure the root cause.
But at least Qu Buhui is generally normal now.
He was not affected by the resentment in his heart.
It's just that sometimes in battle, I can't control my inner bloodthirsty desire.
Seeing that he had already been reprimanded, Qu Buhui now looked like he was admitting his mistake.
Yi Hanqing finally let the other party go.
"Okay, come with me, and tell me what happened down the mountain during this period of time."
Hearing this, Qu Buhui immediately stood up with a smile.
It was obvious that Yi Hanqing's words went in one ear and out the other.
The demon cultivator at her feet had his heart meridians shattered by Yi Hanqing's sword intent just now, and was dead beyond death.
As soon as he entered the hut, Qu Buhui walked to a rattan chair in the yard with ease and prepared to sit down.
But before she could sit down, another gust of sword-like wind blew and pushed her aside.
Then, under her resentful gaze, Yi Hanqing lay down on the rattan chair calmly, looking very comfortable.
"Uncle Yi, why can't you have another rattan chair in your yard? You always make me sit on this stone chair, which is very tiring."
Hearing this, Yi Hanqing, who was lying on a rattan chair, said slowly: "If your heart is not calm, you will feel uncomfortable no matter where you sit."
"You are restless, but I can't let you ruin my precious things."
Hearing this, Qu Buhui curled his lips in dissatisfaction.
What do you mean by peace of mind? I see you just like to watch me suffer and enjoy it.
Although he thought so in his heart, Qu Buhui still sat obediently on the stone chair next to Yi Hanqing and told Yi Hanqing every detail of his experience down the mountain.
During this process, Yi Hanqing was like an old father who did not interrupt and always listened patiently.
Finally, Yi Hanqing also understood the current situation at the foot of the mountain.
Although East Shenzhou is in chaos today, it can still be generally divided into two paths: good and evil.
Although the righteous ones are powerful, they are unable to unite because of their ulterior motives.
Although the Demonic Path is a new force, it has the secret support of the Shiqie Cave.
So there is a hidden momentum of growth.
Shangqing Taoist Palace is located deep in East Shenzhou, which is considered the place farthest away from disputes.
However, sporadic demons still began to appear nearby.
This is enough to show how powerful the demonic forces in East Shenzhou are now.
Just when Yi Hanqing wanted to say something, he suddenly felt a powerful sword intent coming at him.
In an instant, Yi Hanqing suddenly raised his only arm and swung a bamboo sword through the air.
The sudden flash of sword light, like lightning, slashed directly at the cold light that fell from the sky.
Bang! It was just this simple exchange.
The aftermath of this swept through Yi Hanqing's courtyard like a strong wind.
Qu Buhui, who was sitting next to Yi Hanqing, had no time to react at this time. He was blown to the side again and fell into the flower field in the yard.
Wait until she raised her head and looked up into the air.
An unfamiliar swordsman stood with his sword, looking at Xia Feng with a smile on his face.
Looking at this strange swordsman, Qu Buhui's face immediately showed a ferocious look and his eyes were sharp.
But it's different from her look as if she was facing a great enemy.
Yi Hanqing, who was standing aside, was briefly stunned, but then he felt long-lost joy.
"Brother Yi, I haven't seen you for many years. I think your sword skills have returned to their original simplicity."
"It seems that your sword has not been covered in dust during these years in East Shenzhou. Instead, it has become more refined."
Hearing these words, Yi Hanqing below smiled and raised the bamboo sword in his hand.
"Coming from Junior Brother Lu's mouth, I really don't know whether he is praising me or insulting me."
"In terms of the improvement of swordsmanship, who in the entire Qingyun Sect can compare with you?"
"Not to mention the Qingyun Sect, even if all the geniuses in the five states were added together, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to match your swordsmanship alone."
"If I'm not mistaken, the sword you used just now didn't have any sword intent at all, right?"
"I am only close to returning to the original state, but you, Junior Brother Lu...are truly returning to the original state."
After saying that, Yi Hanqing casually threw away the bamboo sword in his hand.
At the same time, Lu Chen also fell from the air.
Regardless of whether Yi Hanqing was willing or not, he just lay down on the rattan chair where he had just been lying.
"Brother Yi, this chair is nice. How about giving it to me?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Hanqing said helplessly: "It's just an ordinary thing, what do you want to do with it?"
Lu Chen looked at Qu Buhui who was not hiding his hostility towards him and said meaningfully, "What you consider to be ordinary things may not be ordinary things in the eyes of some people."
