Chapter 294 Should I owe it first?
The night is dark, and the forest in the darkness seems to be roaring silently in the silence in the distance.
The night in the death swamp seems to be shrouded in black clouds, perhaps because of the fog rising from this huge swamp every night.
Under the gray sky, not to mention the moon, not even half a star can be seen.
Beside a bush, a burning bonfire swayed. Looking vaguely in the darkness, it seemed that a young man with an epee was sitting by the bonfire, looking vigilantly at the darkness engulfed by the fog in the distance.
Not far away, a group of young people curled up in their clothes and bedding, covering their whole bodies tightly, to resist the night chill in the dead marsh and the strange poisonous insects that would come out of nowhere.
The insect repellent herbs crackled in the flames, emitting wisps of white smoke, while a group of strange poisonous insects with blood-spotted blood wings approached the camp under the mist of insect repellent, unaware of the smoke.
The poisonous insect fluttered its wings and made a soft buzzing sound. At first glance, it seemed that some humans and animals were harmless, but Lin Jingyu didn't dare to neglect in the slightest. After all, since they came to the Death Swamp, they have been in various places these days. The worms suffered a lot.
People tend to have a kind of hidden arrogance. Before they have seen something in person, they will always be suspicious of other people's words.
Carefully operating mana, Lin Jingyu wanted to drive him away with the imperial technique, but suddenly saw a cloud of black clouds floating over the water plants in the distance.
The miasma is continuous and will not separate and float towards them on purpose. If it wasn't for the miasma, what would that black cloud be?
Lin Jingyu's face changed slightly, he concentrated and calmed down, and listened carefully.
In the swamp, except for the still whining wind, it seemed to be still, and there was no movement.
But after a while, there was a slight and dense "rustling" sound from the direction of the black cloud. Although it was hard to see through the darkness, the sound seemed very far away, but such a thin sound, It sounds kind of creepy!
"The poisonous insects are coming!"
Lin Jingyu shouted anxiously, waking up the people who were sleeping in their clothes. There was a sudden commotion, Xiao Yicai, Qi Hao, Zeng Shushu, Lu Xueqi Wenmin and others quickly reacted, together with Faxiang Faming and other Tianyin Temple disciples, they gathered together, full of With a wary face, he looked at the huge monster surging towards him like a huge wave and a high wall in the distance.
"What monster?" Zeng Shushu opened his eyes wide and looked around. The campsites of the two factions were surrounded by poisonous insects overwhelming the sky. When he looked around, he could see densely packed poisonous insects. The continuous thunderous scene made one's heart tremble with fear and his scalp tingle.
"This is an insect. Although its body surface is non-toxic, its blood is highly poisonous. Once it dies, the venom will explode and splatter. It is recorded in ancient books that they do not live in groups, but they do not know why they appear in groups?" Fa Xiang raised his palm. A ball of golden light covered a scorpion, frowning slightly, carefully driving it away.
Xiao Yicai said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about it, this place is too dangerous. It looks like they are coming straight towards us. Everyone, be careful."
Streams of different streams of light lit up from the darkness, Dragon Slaying Sword and Tianya Sword were unstoppable in their sharpness, and the venom of the torn anatomy splattered everywhere, but they couldn't stop the sea of insects that filled the sky like a mountain torrent and huge waves.
Countless insect corpses piled up around the crowd, the streamer of the magic weapon and the roar of the magic spell shook for tens of miles, and seemed to have alarmed some sleeping monsters.
As more and more insect corpses piled up, Lu Xueqi's face became paler, and the Tianya sword she held tightly trembled slightly. Lin Jingyu and others also consumed a lot of mana. Breaking through, although Xiao Yicai and Qi Hao reacted in time to protect the two of them behind them, they were unable to separate themselves in the end. In an instant, countless monsters swarmed into the crowd and dispersed them.
Xiao Yicai's heart tightened, and he looked around through the dense swarm of insects. Because of their commotion, it seemed that something hidden in the depths of the swamp had been disturbed. If they disperse and evacuate, they may encounter other dangers, but if they don't leave, all of them will be consumed to death in this sea of insects.
Just when he was in a dilemma, a gust of wind blew from behind, dispelling the thick and unpleasant poisonous blood of the scorpion, and his breath was suddenly lightened, followed by the most instinctive sense of danger originating from the depths of his soul. From the bottom of my heart, it was obvious that the energy mechanism was not locked, but it seemed that life and death were involuntary, and it was all in the other's mind.
In an instant, Xiao Yicai turned his eyes to look in the middle of the crowd. All the monks present also reacted like him. A faint red light was faintly visible in the sea of insects. Lu Xueqi saw this light red gleam , with a sudden jump in my heart,
Rou Yi, who was holding Tianya, clenched tighter and tighter, but seeing the sword shadow appearing in the red light, a trace of disappointment finally flashed in his cold eyes.
not him.
After the loss, Lu Xueqi and all Qingyun disciples present looked at the person with complicated expressions. An invisible air wave accompanied the innate spiritual treasure, and the coercion of the prehistoric number one killing formation was combined with a simple and simple handle with a faint red light. The long sword spread out in all directions.
In an instant, there seemed to be a vacuum in the sea of insects. Zhou Ji was holding a celestial being, and his clothes were long-sleeved and windless.
Peaceful and gentle eyes swept around, as if not seeing the hostile and disgusted eyes of everyone, the long sword in his hand turned downwards and slowly plunged into the ground.
Boom~
In an instant, there was a loud roar.
Thousands of years of cultivation drove the Absolute Immortal Sword Intent, and the swarm of insects that had squeezed out of the empty area seemed to feel something extremely terrifying. They followed the most instinctive reaction of creatures and fled crazily outwards. Under the spread of the Innate Sword Intent, The poisonous insects in the innermost layer were crushed into dust like gravel, and the stench of poisonous blood that shrouded the jungle also dissipated.
In the depths of the darkness, in the misty water, there were several loud splashes, accompanied by the humming that got farther and farther away, and the fleeing poisonous insects were also several miles away, regathering into clouds, and bypassing the jungle Disappeared in the night.
After the night, the dawn comes.
The first ray of light in the morning spilled down through the thick clouds in the sky and the mist floating in the Dead Marsh.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that they had stood firm all night under the impact of the sea of insects. The sea of insects receded, and the calm did not last long. Slowly, with the ray of light, everything around them began to become noisy again. .
Ten years ago, the Ghost King Sect and Wandu Sect's Longevity Hall broke into the Qingyun Sect. Zhou Ji severely injured Daoxuan Master, and took the opportunity to **** the treasure of the Qingyun Town School, the Zhuxian Sword.
Now, Master Daoxuan has regained his strength, Wan Jianyi, who died in feigned death a hundred years ago, has returned to the stage, and Taoist Cangsong, who rebelled against his sect, has returned to Qingyun. The loss is only some ordinary disciples and Zhang Xiaofan from Dazhu Peak, but it is because of the change of owner of the Zhuxian Sword that completely knocked Qingyunmen's supreme position in the practice world down from the altar.
Without the halo of Zhuxian Sword, Qingyunmen will lose the capital of "invincibility". They are in urgent need of a substitute, so they will send the most elite disciples under the sect without hesitation after learning that the golden light of Southwest Mizusawa came to the world, hoping to come here to find Rare treasures, looking for opportunities.
Seeing that the opportunity has not been found yet, instead, they met the common enemy of all the disciples of Qingyun Sect. How should Xiao Yicai, Qi Hao and the others deal with this?
Thanks to Zhou Ji for helping them drive away the poisonous insects? But Zhu Xianjian was still on the other side's back. The ancient and clumsy stone sword was glaring even though it had no reflection in the morning sun.
Join forces to 'beg' Zhu Xian from Zhou Ji? Not to mention that the other party rescued them just now, Xiao Yicai didn't feel the slightest chance of winning just because of the simple and fierce sword that held Zhu Xian hard and frightened away the poisonous insects.
Not far away, Faxiang Faming and the others did not have such embarrassment. After all, Zhou Ji lived in Tianyin Temple for several years, and when he helped Zhang Xiaofan open the Tianshu Jade Bi, he did not stop the disciples of Tianyin Temple from practicing.
The stone wall of Tianshu is still at the bottom of the cliff behind Tianyin Temple, but without the opening of Zhou Ji, it has become a place for them to sit in meditation and cultivate their mind again, and this period of opportunity has also made the relationship between Tianyin Temple and Zhou Ji possible. Good fate.
"Amitabha, the little monk Faxiang has met Senior Zhou Ji."
Faming and several other Tianyin Temple disciples beside him, together with Faxiang, bowed to Zhou Ji for eleven obeisances. Zhou Ji nodded slightly, and turned to look at the Qingyun people with complicated expressions beside him. The Immortal Execution Sword must be withdrawn. His relationship with Qingyunmen There was no room for change. Although Zhou Ji felt a little regretful about the attitude of Lu Xueqi and the others, there was nothing he could do about it. After all, there was only the Jade Immortal Sword here, and it was impossible for him to return the Jade Immortal Sword to them in order to make friends with Qingyun.
Under this relationship, saying one more word is tantamount to provocation.
Pull the Juexian from the ground and put it back into the formation. Without the dimension reduction blow of the Juexian Sword at this moment, Si Teng might be scared to jump by the bugs again.
Thinking of this, a smile flashed in Zhou Ji's eyes. To be honest, it was quite touching to see her expression of being frightened by insects and breaking her defense occasionally.
Well, it stimulates the desire to protect.
Zhou Ji frowned slightly, turned around and was about to leave, when he suddenly noticed Lu Xueqi's hesitant expression, paused, turned and looked at her, "Do you want to ask Xiaofan about it?"
When this name was mentioned, everyone in the Qingyun Sect looked more complicated. The aftermath of the chaos ten years ago has calmed down, but few people mentioned the simple boy holding the blood-thirsty bead soul-stirring stick.
"Junior Brother Zhang, he..." Lu Xueqi's eyes trembled, she was not as cold as before, recalling the figure who rescued her in the endless darkness of Necromancer Abyss in her mind, she opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.
"Xiaofan, is he doing well now?" Holding the Dragon Slaying Sword, Lin Jingyu took a step forward, pursed his lips, and said in a low voice, "This time, the vision of golden light in the southwestern water lake has attracted two forces, righteous and evil. Are you coming too?"
Now Zhang Xiaofan is already the fifth protector of the Ghost King Sect, he often wanders in the practice world, but he has been deliberately avoiding Qingyun disciples, so that he has never seen his former fellow sect again these years.
"That's right, he's here too." Zhou Ji glanced at Lu Xueqi, who had a gleam of light in his eyes, and nodded, "It was he who begged me to come and save you last night."
"Then why didn't he come to see us in person? Where is he now?" Hearing that Zhang Xiaofan also came to the Death Swamp, Lin Jingyu was excited, but also somewhat puzzled. Zhou Ji talked about this, but he and Zhang Xiaofan grew up in the same village, and they are the only surviving orphans in the entire Caomiao Village, apart from each other, they have no relatives.
When he was young, he still couldn't understand this kind of sadness and loneliness, and he bullied Zhang Xiaofan everywhere, now as he grows older, he cherishes this childhood playmate with the same background as himself more and more, seeing Lin Jingyu's excited appearance, Zhou Ji sighed softly, faintly He said, "If you find the Heavenly Emperor's treasure house, you can meet him."
Treasure of the Emperor of Heaven
Everyone froze in place immediately, the golden vision of the swamp of death was very powerful, the righteous and the devil and many casual cultivators rushed here to find the opportunity, but they didn't even know what the opportunity was. Now they heard Zhou Ji After saying the words 'Treasure of the Emperor of Heaven', Fa Peng and others were about to ask what happened, but found that the figure in front of him had already turned into a stream of light and disappeared without a trace.
Tens of miles away, in front of a vast and flat muddy land, there are several towering trees growing here, which is a rare stable and dry land in the swamp. Zhang Xiaofan overlooked the direction of the loud noise last night, following the rising sun , the light of Tianya Sword, Zhanlong Sword and Liuhe Mirror has long since faded away.
A ray of light fell under the tree, Zhang Xiaofan quickly walked towards Zhou Ji, hesitantly said, "Senior, are they all right?"
Zhou Ji handed the Absolute Immortal Sword into Si Teng's hands, the innate evil energy dissipated, the insects around gradually faded away, turned around to look at Zhang Xiaofan, and said, "Don't worry, they are fine, but someone wants to ask me to ask you why If you don't see him, where are you now?"
Not far away, Baguio, who was still washing and grooming, immediately stopped and pricked up her ears to eavesdrop. How could her little movement be hidden from Zhou Ji, and she glanced at Baguio's direction with a half-smile , Baguio realized that her small movements were exposed, her pretty face blushed, but she also stood up and walked forward generously, holding Zhang Xiaofan's arm and said softly, "Which brother or sister of Xiaofan asked?"
Senior Sister's accent above was tinged with jealousy, Zhou Ji couldn't help laughing and said, "It's Lin Jing Yu Lin Shaoxia."
"Jing Yu." Hearing Lin Jingyu's name, Zhang Xiaofan was in a daze for a moment, and smiled wryly, "Is he alright?"
"How do I know this?"
Zhou Ji waved his hand and yawned, "But he also asked me similar questions. If you meet again in the Heavenly Emperor's Treasure House, you can ask him yourself."
