Chapter 327 This is not something you should know

As the practitioners from the Supreme Taoist Sect and the Sword Sect left, only the practitioners from the Jishi Valley Sect and Meng Xuan were left in the square. The originally crowded square suddenly seemed a little deserted.

Meng Xuan looked up at Dan Zu in the sky, but Dan Zu just shook his head at her.

Afterwards, Meng Xuan's expression became serious, as if she had heard something unbelievable.

Danzu threw down a token, turned around and disappeared, and Mengxuan caught the token and left the square worriedly.

This action was not concealed at all and naturally fell into the eyes of many Jishigu disciples present. They couldn't help but wonder who this Nascent Soul stage practitioner who was personally bestowed with the token by the ancestor was.

Without paying attention to other people's gazes, Meng Xuan walked out of the square.

The horizons become wider.

There were many islands, large and small, floating in the sky, with special spiritual medicines growing on them. All of them were covered by formations, which adjusted the environment on the islands to be most suitable for the growth of spiritual medicines.

And between those islands, one could see the Danxia gas rising, which turned out to be some alchemists who were refining the pure and spiritual energy from the void.

Below the island, there are towering mountains. The tall and majestic sacred mountains are hidden in the misty clouds, with swift waterfalls and colorful auspicious lights.

The rich spiritual energy gathered into mist, and at the foot of the mountain were neatly arranged spiritual fields that stretched to no end.

Automated magical instruments kept moving back and forth, spraying spiritual mist on the spiritual fields. There were also some disciples from Jishigu recording the growth trends of the spiritual medicines next to the spiritual fields.

Some people also wore special soul-saving robes that covered their entire bodies, and walked among the spiritual fields, occasionally bending down to observe the leaves, fruits, branches and roots of the spiritual medicines.

This is the "experimental field" area of ​​Jishigu, which is usually used to cultivate some elixirs with wide applications and mild medicinal properties.

We will also try to improve some poisonous weeds that are difficult to use as medicine.

Just like the Shenji Refining Treasure Pavilion launches some refining materials with superior performance in all aspects every year, selling improved spiritual medicine seeds to various forces in the Central Continent is also one of the largest sources of income for Jishigu.

After generations of improvement, many spiritual herbs that had no medicinal value in ancient times have now become the main materials needed for refining some new types of elixirs.

If it were an ordinary time, Meng Xuan would definitely stop and take a good look at the scene of this new era.

But today I really don’t have that intention.

After walking quickly forward for a while, she finally arrived near a teleportation array. After showing the token given by Danzu to the disciple guarding the teleportation array, she was allowed to pass.

As the teleportation array lit up, Meng Xuan arrived in front of a very majestic mountain.

Along the mountain, many classical and elegant courtyards are arranged in an orderly manner, and spiritual lights can be seen from time to time.

This is the "sanatorium" of Jishigok.

Many people who come to Jishigu for medical treatment will be placed here during the treatment process.

According to Danzu, Gu Mo had previously arranged for two juniors to come over to treat the injuries he sustained after failing to advance to Hedao.

She is Gu Mo's sister-in-law, so when Dan Zu was explaining what had happened recently, he also mentioned this matter to her.

The spiritual energy in the void flows slowly, extremely gently, as if emitting a faint medicinal fragrance that is refreshing to the heart.

After leaving the area where the teleportation array was located, a few steps forward led to an area similar to a park, where a small path paved with polished spirit stones meandered around - this was part of the array used to regulate spiritual energy.

Not only that, there are some special shrubs and tall healing trees growing on both sides of the trail, and there are benches every few meters for people to rest.

"Brother Buyu, open your mouth, ah~"

Meng Xuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a pretty and smart girl sitting on a bench not far away, holding a bowl of porridge and looking at the man beside her with a look of resistance on his face.

"Junior sister, I'll do it myself."

The girl is at the initial stage of foundation building, and her foundation is natural.

As for the man with a face full of resistance, she couldn't see through him.

It’s more than just the transformation into a spirit, at least it’s the return to emptiness.

She took out the gray jade talisman, and the sword intent sealed in it seemed to be touched...

That’s right, these are Gu Mo’s two juniors—Mo Buyu and Liu Yingying.

The two of them behaved in a somewhat intimate manner, and their relationship was obviously not ordinary.

Building a foundation and returning to the void...

The age gap is quite big.

But since we are all practitioners, we don’t take these things seriously.

…………

Jian Zong.

Needless to say, the speed of Dongzhen Sword Cultivator was so fast that many Sword Cult practitioners only felt a darkness before their eyes when they were swept by the sword light.

It seemed like only a moment had passed, yet it also seemed like a long time had passed.

The concept of time seems to have become blurred.

A ray of sword light appeared from the darkness and landed at the foot of the mountain where the Sword Ancestor Hall was located, which was the square where he left.

The figures of many Sword Sect practitioners appeared, with a look of confusion in their eyes that had never disappeared.

For them, this experience ended too suddenly, without any warning.

What on earth happened?
Li Ke's figure landed in front, and after glancing at everyone, he said, "There was an accident during this training, so it ends here, and you can go back."

"..."

Zhou Kongming was at the highest level, so he was the first to react. He took a step forward and asked respectfully:
"May I ask, Uncle Master, what is this accident..."

Li Ke's expression was calm, and his voice was even, "This is not something you should know, just go back."

The place was even quieter, and everyone felt a little uneasy.
But since Li Ke had said so, they didn't dare to ask any more questions. They all bowed and turned away.

Soon, the group of practitioners in the square left, leaving only Chi Jiuyu and Zhang Yunlu.

As for Chi Jiuyu, he was naturally very curious.

Zhang Yunlu saw that her senior sister had not left yet, so she didn't leave either.

"Let's all go back." Li Ke walked to the stone steps that stretched straight up to the Sword Ancestor Hall and sat down, sighing, "This matter is indeed not something you can know."

Chi Jiuyu looked at Li Ke in front of him who seemed a little tired, and suddenly felt a little uneasy, and tightened his grip around the Qilin egg.

Even when she was seriously injured in the starry sky before, senior sister didn’t show this kind of expression. Could something really have happened?

No, no, there are also Master and Uncle, they are both so powerful...

She wanted to ask, but didn't know where to start.

Suddenly, Li Ke looked up at Zhang Yunlu, who was also a little uneasy: "By the way, little Yunlu, if you have time, go see Uncle Ji."

Look at Uncle Ji?
Zhang Yunlu was stunned, but finally nodded obediently.

Uncle Ji was very good to her, and she had originally planned to visit him after this training.

"By the way, senior sister, do you know when my master will come out of seclusion? This is the gift I brought for her." Chi Jiuyu, who had been holding it in for a long time, finally said, and raised the Qilin egg in his hand.

"You keep it for yourself." Li Ke shook his head slightly. "Master and uncle-in-law are out. I'm afraid they won't be back for a long time."

what?
Master and uncle-master are out?

Chi Jiuyu scratched his head and wanted to ask more questions, but was interrupted by Li Ke: "You must be tired after training for so long, go back and rest."

After saying this, he waved his hand casually, and Chi Jiuyu only felt a darkness in front of his eyes.

"Think more about the matter of transformation into a god when you have time."

One last voice came to my ears, and when the light came back in front of my eyes, I found that I had arrived outside the inner gate cave.

Was he really sent back?

Chi Jiuyu felt more and more uneasy, but he also knew that asking his senior sister again would probably yield no results.

Walk forward and input a trace of magic power to open the door of the cave.

He put the Qilin egg in his hand aside, kicked off his shoes, took out his mobile phone, logged into the spiritual network and walked inside.

Since she couldn’t get the answer from her senior sister, she looked it up on her own!
I just can't believe that I can't find any clues at all!

……

……

On the other side, Zhang Yunlu felt the same as Chi Jiuyu.

My eyes went dark and then bright again.

However, she did not appear in the courtyard outside her own gate, but appeared in the depths of a quiet bamboo forest.

It was somewhat similar to the bamboo forest that her master had taken her to when she became his apprentice, but the light was much brighter.

A bluestone road winds its way through, through which a corner of the building can be vaguely seen.

This is the courtyard where Uncle Ji lives.

Zhang Yunlu understood in her heart, Senior Sister Li actually sent her here directly?

Without further hesitation, she walked across the bluestone paved road and came to the end of the road - a somewhat old courtyard.

There are auspicious cloud patterns carved on the door, but they have faded a little, and the mottled marks tell of the passage of time.

Although it is not the appropriate season, there is a wintersweet growing and in full bloom.

"come in."

The sound coming from the courtyard was extremely crisp and clear, reminiscent of the clanging sound of a sword being drawn from its sheath.

Zhang Yunlu paused, reached out and pushed the door open, a faint scent of sandalwood wafted into her nose.

I saw a landscape painting hanging on the wall, smudged with ink.

There is an exquisite incense burner in the corner. The smoke rises slowly, blending with the sandalwood in the air, making people feel peaceful.
The light in the room was soft, with a few simple cushions placed in the middle. A heroic woman with sharp eyes and eyebrows was sitting on the cushions.

On his knees was a snow-white long sword with a wintersweet tied to the sword head.

The mottled light and shadows that filtered through the paper window fell on her, making her creamy skin seem somewhat transparent.

She had an extremely beautiful face, but when her bright eyes looked at her, they gave people a feeling of great pressure.

"..." Zhang Yunlu felt her breathing become heavy. After a long while, she hesitated and asked, "...Uncle Ji?"

"It's me." Ji Yue smiled gently, and the heavy pressure dissipated.

"Sit down, kid."

It turned out to be Uncle Ji!
Zhang Yunlu was a little dazed.

She really couldn't associate the breathtakingly beautiful and heroic woman in front of her with the old, hunchbacked woman.

Seeing Zhang Yunlu sitting down in a daze, Ji Yue sighed inwardly.

Originally, after a few years, the backlash from failing to knock on the immortal gate would be completely eliminated, but this time, the forced attack made all the previous training go to waste...

I don’t know how long it will take to fully recover.

But this is not the most serious thing.

"Did your experience outside the realm go smoothly this time?" Ji Yue asked in a gentle voice.

The tone was still the same as before, but perhaps because of the change in appearance, Zhang Yunlu felt a little nervous.

"Everything went well, and...something was achieved."

"That's good."

With Ji Yue's vision, it was impossible not to see that Zhang Yunlu was now only one step away from completing the foundation building process.

The principle of danger...

It is indeed a great help in the foundation-building stage, but it will not be so obvious in the golden elixir stage.

"Don't rush into forming the elixir. Go to the Dharma Transmission Building more often to read the experiences of the predecessors. If you have any questions, ask me immediately."

"Ah."

"Remember to tell your senior sister these words as well."

With Sword Master away, Sword Ancestor's several disciples were busy dealing with the impact of this incident, so she naturally had to take over the responsibility of teaching the two of them.

Although Jiuyu is a little naughty, she is not a bad person at heart. Moreover, now is a critical period. If she makes a wrong step, she will be very sorry to Jian Zun.

"Okay, I will pass these words to my senior sister."

Speaking of which, Senior Sister...seems a little scared of Master Ji. Will she come to see Master Ji?

The sound of their conversation continued to echo in the old courtyard. Most of the time, Ji Yue was giving instructions and Zhang Yunlu was listening.

Somewhat inconsistent with her neat temperament, Ji Yue talked a lot.

It was not until the sun set in the west and the sunset glowed on the bamboo forest, shining through the paper window and dyeing the house bright, that Zhang Yunlu came out of the house.

Looking up, the sunset dyed the sky extremely brilliantly, and the mountains in the distance were coated with a layer of golden light.

After a long time, she looked away.

Call ~
With a long sigh, Zhang Yunlu walked away along the winding bluestone path through the bamboo forest.

inside the house.

Ji Yue was still sitting upright on the cushion, and the snow-white sword on her knees was now covered with a layer of sunset color.

Half of the body was illuminated by the light, while the other half was hidden in darkness.

"Ah~"

With a sigh, Ji Yue looked out the window, with a trace of sadness in her eyes.

What happened that day happened very suddenly, and she actually didn't know what happened exactly.

It was not until Zhang Yunlu was brought here by Li Ke that she learned what Tian Xuan had done when he suddenly appeared.

four...

Sword Ancestor, Sword Master, Yuan Lord, Hong Master.

Four of the human race's true immortals were plotted against and fell out of the realm, with no idea when they would be able to return.

"I hope you guys will come back soon..."

Now she can do nothing but guard the Sword Sect and wait for the Four Immortals to return.

Thinking in her mind, she closed her eyes and took long and slow breaths.

The sunset glow in the sky gradually disappeared, and the sun finally sank.

When the silver moon rose and the stars dotted the night sky, a ray of colorful sword light emerged from the darkness and landed in the Sword Sect.

Lin Ji, the master of the Seven Emotions Sword, has also returned.

…………

For the next few days, everything went on as usual.

When Xuan arrived at the Central Continent that day, the momentum of his fight with the immortals was so overwhelming that every living being witnessed it with their own eyes.

It took the joint efforts of all the immortals to erase what happened that day from the hearts of every living being in the Central Continent.

Understanding the concept of 'Cang' is too dangerous for practitioners below the level of He Dao.

But the entire Sword Sect...or the entire Central Continent is still shrouded in a depressing atmosphere.

Only time can heal the confusion after a disaster.

Chi Jiuyu's investigation was fruitless, and there was no wrong information on the spiritual network.

I even found that my master and uncle, who had always been online before, were now offline, and I finally realized that something was wrong.

For this reason, she asked many people who might know the truth.

But there is only one answer -

'This is not for you to know.'

Almost everyone told her not to worry about it and just focus on her practice.

But the more this happened, the more uneasy she felt.

After tossing and turning for several days and nights, she finally sneaked out one night and prepared to sneak into the Sword Master's Hall to take a look.

However, how could she, who had only achieved the perfect Nascent Soul stage, possibly do this in the Sword Sect?

The moon hangs high in the sky and the night wind is cold.

Even the breath you exhale can be seen very intuitively.

Chi Jiuyu held his breath and concentrated, trying his best to hide his breath, climbing up the steep cliff bit by bit.

There was a small yellow duck pendant hanging around her neck. It was a gift from Bie Xue Ning when she won first place in the Immortal Sect Competition.

The Sword Master Hall and the Sword Ancestor Hall were under martial law. She didn't dare to take the main path because she knew she would never be able to get in that way.

Maybe we can't achieve it this way, but the possibility is greater after all.

I don’t know how long I climbed like this, but the fog around me gradually became thicker.

He didn't dare use his supernatural powers or open his spiritual thoughts, so he couldn't see clearly his surroundings, the key points, and even what was under his feet.

Gradually, she began to feel a little cold, but she was clearly already a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.

The pace of climbing up began to slow down, and just as she felt her limbs becoming a little stiff.

"Dead fish, can't you just listen for once?"

The thick fog dissipated and Chi Jiuyu only felt a flash before his eyes.

She found that the steep stone wall had disappeared and she was standing on the straight stone steps, while Li Ke was sitting on the higher steps, looking at her quietly.

She was no longer wearing the silver armor, but a black dress, which made her figure look a little thin.

"Go back quickly and practice in peace."

"I want to go up!" Chi Jiuyu clenched his fists, his eyes reddened, "What happened to Master?"

She was picked up by her master.

"..." Li Ke was silent for a while, "Master is fine, he just can't come back for a while."

"Where did she go?!"

“…This is not something you should know.”

That’s it again!
"Why?!"

Li Ke still didn't answer, but just said: "Go back."

After saying that, he prepared to send him away.

Suddenly, a calm voice came from the side: "Let her go and have a look."

A tall and straight middle-aged man with strong features walked out of the void. It was Jing Hai.

Chi Jiuyu was startled: "Senior Brother..."

Jing Hai glanced at her calmly: "To prevent her from having wild thoughts all day long."

"..." Li Ke sighed and stood up, "Okay."

"Thank you, senior brother..."

Chi Jiuyu didn't expect that in the end it was this senior brother with a very old-fashioned personality who would speak up for him.

"Remember to go to the Silutang to receive your punishment."

After leaving this sentence, Jing Hai turned and left.

Chi Jiuyu said nothing and looked up at Li Ke in front of him.

"Come with me."

The scene before his eyes blurred again, and Chi Jiuyu found himself in the Sword Master's Hall, the place where Bie Xue Ning usually meditated.

There was nothing in the dojo, no difference from usual.

The wall that was broken that day has long been repaired.

Chi Jiuyu opened his Taixu Powang Golden Eye and observed for a long time without giving up, but still did not find anything unusual.

"Where's the Master?!"

"I said that Uncle Master is not in the Sword Sect, and she and Master won't be able to come back for a while."

"...I really can't understand why this is happening?!"

"No." Li Ke paused, and finally explained, "Your realm is too low, this is not something you should understand."

The realm is too low...

This was the first time Chi Jiuyu knew the reason during this period.

"Do you want to... unite with the Tao?"

The sect leader wants to achieve harmony with the Dao, and then enter the Temple of All Saints to achieve harmony with the Dao. So, does it also require knowing the truth of this matter...

Li Ke didn't answer, just looked at her.

"I see."

She understood in her heart, and without saying anything more, she turned and walked out of the hall.

"Be careful." Li Ke reminded.

Chi Jiuyu paused, without looking back: "I know."

The figure quickly disappeared into the hall.

Li Ke couldn't help but smile bitterly.

She didn't know whether this was good or bad for her junior sister, but she still hoped that she could calm down.

……

……

After coming out of the Sword Master Hall that night, Chi Jiuyu returned to the cave.

But the next day, she acted as if nothing had happened and invited Zhang Yunlu to go to the Silutang to receive the punishment.

Due to her status, ordinary disciples or deacons of Silutang did not dare to take action, and finally asked a deputy hall master to do it personally.

The punishment for violating martial law was severe. After three lashes of whip, Chi Jiuyu was beaten half to death and couldn't even move.

It was Zhang Yunlu who went with her who carried her back to the cave.

After hearing about this, Lin Ji sent her some spiritual objects for healing. With Zhang Yunlu's careful care, her injuries recovered in no time.

As soon as his injuries healed, Chi Jiuyu ran directly to the Dharma Teaching Building to read various experiences of becoming a spirit.

He would go to Ji Yue from time to time to ask for advice on various matters concerning the transformation into a god, and he no longer acted strangely.

Everyone in the Sword Sect who saw Junior Uncle-Master suddenly becoming so serious felt a little weird.

Is this still my junior uncle?

Under normal circumstances, Du Ruoheng would be very pleased to see this scene, but now he has no such mood.

In the Sword Sect today, apart from a few Sword Masters in the Cave True Realm, he is the busiest person.

Since the day when the Sword Sect encountered the incident, he has never stopped what he is doing.

The first to bear the brunt was the 'Sword Sect Battle Network'. Now that it had lost the support of the Ancestral Sword, it could only rely on a few sword masters and their swords.

But the effect is far worse than before, so many functions that consume a lot of power, such as the 'Xuxian Realm', need to be turned off.

In fact, not only the Sword Sect, but also the spiritual network of the Supreme Taoist Sect was affected.

Of course, the spiritual network has developed to this day, and in addition to the part about the starry sky, it no longer relies solely on the 'ancestral mirror'.

The psychic base stations established in various places can fully meet the basic needs of the Central Continent.

But the starry sky part...

Just like the Sword Sect, it requires the support of each Cave Realm and their magical weapons.

Secondly, there are matters concerning the Ascendants, the deployment of defenses on the frontline battlefield in the starry sky, calming the emotions of the disciples in the sect, and welcoming a True Immortal Senior from the starry sky...

The Sword Sect is so huge that things broke out all at once. Even though Du Ruoheng, as a great master of the Hedao Sect, had sent many sword spirit bodies to various places to deal with the problems, he still felt exhausted and out of breath.

Sometimes he even thought, why not let Junior Master become the Sect Leader! (End of this chapter)
