"call--"

Taking a deep breath, since there is no way out, we can only find a way to force through.

"All right!"

So I nodded subconsciously, and then said to everyone with a solemn face: "Be careful, I will go up and communicate with the old man again! If you don't want to do it, let's try not to do it with him!"

As I said that, I walked straight towards the stone staircase where the old Taoist was, but I didn't notice at all that everyone was staring at the old Taoist opposite with stern eyes at this time, not taking my words to heart at all.

.

I never noticed that almost at the same time I turned around, Xia Wuren's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning... Something seemed wrong?

I had just taken two steps when a substantial murderous intent locked onto me in an instant, and then I heard the old Taoist suddenly say: "Who are you? Why did you trespass into my forbidden area of ​​Longhu Mountain?"

"Um?"

I frowned slightly, I was a little confused by this veteran, I thought to myself, right? Is your memory already so bad? Didn’t you already ask this question just now?

You can't forget everything so quickly, right?

With this thought in my mind, I cupped my hands towards the old Taoist again and said with a sincere face: "Senior! We really have no ill intentions towards your sect, we just want to use the way out from here! You have also seen that our retreat has been

It’s broken, please make it easier!”

Regardless of whether he is pretending to be stupid or because he has a bad memory, in short, I have implemented all aspects of etiquette. If he really refuses to be accommodating, then I have no choice but to fight with him and find a way.

Bring everyone and force your way through here!

The old Taoist still didn't even look at me, but simply said: "Those who trespass will die!"

"Huh! That's offending!"

Since the other party really refused to be accommodating, I really had no other choice. I stamped my feet and the "Yin and Yang Qi" in my body instantly flowed away. I held the "Hold the Mountain Seal" in my hand and rushed straight towards the old Taoist.

"Huh?"

I don't know whether it was because of my "daring behavior" or because he also noticed the flow of "yin and yang energy", but only then did the old Taoist couldn't help but have a flash of surprise in his eyes.

But he still had no intention of letting us pass. He just waved his hand, and the evil-killing male and female swords suspended in the air not far away fell into his hands one after the other!

He held one in each hand, and with a "shoo" sound, he slashed towards me.

The opponent's strength is truly astonishing, almost comparable to the physical incarnation of the "King of Five Senses". Once the two sides fight, I immediately feel the pressure!

Because my "Mountain Holding Seal" actually only lasted less than two moves in the light of his sword, it was directly cut in half by the Evil-Destroying Male and Female Sword in his hand! If I hadn't used it again in time, "

"Fearless Lion Seal", I might really be hurt by his sword light!

The opponent's swordsmanship may seem ordinary, but in fact it is magical. Several major killing moves in the "Xiaoyan Sword Art" are integrated into these simple slashing movements, which makes people avoid it at all.

There is no way to avoid it, we can only fight it!

It's hard to imagine how terrifying the other party's attainments in "Xiaoyan Sword Art" have reached? Even though I also learned "Xiaoyan Sword Art", I have never exerted such power. This is simply not an order of magnitude.

.

Thinking of this, I suddenly became unwilling to admit defeat. I couldn't help but activate the Thunder Sword in my hand again, and also started to use the "Xiaoyan Sword Technique".

"Huh?"

Glancing at me in surprise, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to realize that I had indeed not lied just now, and indeed had a deep connection with Longhu Mountain. Otherwise, how could I have also learned the "Xiaoyan Sword Technique"?

But he had no intention of being merciful at all. Instead, he used the power of "Xiao Yan Sword Art" to its extreme. For a moment, the sky was almost filled with sword shadows!

Even though the sword technique I use is almost exactly the same as his, and it is also the "Xiao Yan Sword Technique", but in terms of power, it is still far behind, only one-tenth of the power he exerts. If I hadn't mastered it,

The "two qi of yin and yang" have a slight advantage in strength, and I would probably have been defeated.

However, in the process of fighting with the opponent, I suddenly had a new understanding of "Xiaoyan Sword Technique", as if he suddenly opened another door! For the first time, I learned about "Xiaoyan Sword Technique"

So it can still be used like this?

"Good opportunity!"

Thinking of this, my eyes suddenly lit up. Even though I was far inferior to the opponent in swordsmanship and was suddenly at an absolute disadvantage. But I still did not use any other means, but continued to attack him with "Xiaoyan Sword Technique"!

The other party probably also understood what I meant, but he didn't stop me. Instead, he seemed to be constantly giving me moves, which made my understanding of "Xiao Yan Sword Technique" deeper and deeper.

Gradually, I could barely keep up with his rhythm, and I became more and more comfortable with the "Xiao Yan Sword Technique". Finally, with the help of the mystery of "Yin and Yang Qi", I gradually became a draw with the opponent.

!

The old Taoist on the opposite side, after feeding me all the sword moves in the "Xiao Yan Sword Technique", suddenly took two steps back and suddenly stopped attacking.

Naturally, I also stopped, and quickly bowed respectfully to the old Taoist, and said with gratitude on my face: "Thank you, senior, for your help!"

The old Taoist still looked indifferent and just asked: "Which generation disciple of Longhu Mountain are you?"

"ah?"

As soon as this statement came out, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded on the spot. I felt bad that this old Taoist had mistaken me for a disciple of Longhu Mountain, so I started to love talents and kept giving me tricks.

If he knew that I was not actually a disciple of Longhu Mountain, wouldn't he be furious?

But I can't lie to him, right? So I replied with some trepidation: "Actually... this junior is not a disciple of Longhu Mountain, but a casual cultivator!"

"Um?"

As expected, as soon as I finished speaking, the old Taoist's face changed slightly and he looked at me in surprise, but he didn't get angry back.

After being silent for a long time, he suddenly asked: "As a casual cultivator, would you like to join our Longhu Mountain Taoist Court?"

"this……"

As soon as I heard this, I immediately hesitated. The current Zhang Tianshi had actually asked this question a long time ago, and I had already refused at that time. As for now, it is even more impossible for me to join Longhu Mountain.

The reason why I hesitated is actually because I was thinking about how I should politely reject Lao Dao without making him furious.

I just thought about it, but never thought of a suitable excuse, so I just ignored Xia Wuren's wink, and with a sudden change of heart, I said truthfully: "This is terrible! If senior regrets it, I can punish him

God swears, I will never use any moves related to Xiaoyan Sword Technique from now on!"

"Oh……"

As soon as I finished speaking, the old man couldn't help but laugh suddenly, but the smile was rather bitter, and then he murmured to himself: "The so-called geniuses are indeed madmen, and even the tone of speaking is exactly the same as that person back then.

…”

"Hmm? That person back then?"

As soon as these words came out, I couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, thinking that the person he mentioned back then could be my grandfather, right?

It's not that it's impossible, but it's very possible. After all, the runes at the entrance were all arranged by my grandfather back then! In this case, he must have been here, and naturally he has encountered this person before him.

Seasoned.

"well--"

I was thinking in my heart, but the old Taoist couldn't help sighing, and said with some ridicule: "It's my fault for taking it for granted. With such cultivation and talent, it is even better than that person back then, so I am not willing to join in halfway.

I’m in Longhu Mountain!”

"What a pity..."

"Time has not waited for me. After waiting for thousands of years, there is no one in Longhu Mountain who can inherit my mantle..."

"What!"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be shocked on the spot. I thought, no, this old man in front of me has actually been here for thousands of years?

This...how is this possible?

Could it be that he is not a "person" at all, but just a remnant soul?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but take a closer look at the old man in front of me. Then my face changed slightly, and I suddenly discovered that he was just a remnant soul!

"hiss--"

I gasped subconsciously, and my pupils almost instantly widened. It was just a remnant soul, but it was so powerful? Then how terrifying was his cultivation in its heyday?

Logically speaking, with my current level of cultivation, even if I pay a little attention, I should have discovered this already!

In fact, just now, I did have such doubts. But the strength displayed by the other party was really terrifying, so I subconsciously rejected the idea, and even did not dare to pursue it at all.

think.

But I didn't expect that the old Taoist in front of me was really just a remnant soul!

I'll be a good boy...

After swallowing hard, I couldn't help but quickly bowed respectfully to the old Taoist, and ventured to ask: "May I ask your senior's surname?"

When I asked this question, I actually had some kind of guess in my mind, but I wasn't sure yet, so I took the liberty of asking.

"The poor Taoist 'Three-day Master Zhengyi Zhenren' is right!"

"Boom"!

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden thunder in my mind, because I guessed it right, he was the founder of Longhu Mountain - Zhang Daoling!

"Three-day Dharma Master Zhengyi Zhenren" is his Taoist name. It sounds a bit hard to pronounce, but in fact it has a great origin! Because it is said that when he founded the Zhengyi Alliance's majestic way, Taishang Laojun once "granted him the Three-Day Dharma"

, destined to be a heavenly master", so he always called himself "the master of the three days and the real person"!

This is a truly fairy-like figure!

How could I have imagined that such a legendary figure was standing "alive" in front of me at this moment, and had personally taught me the "Xiaoyan Sword Technique" just now.

While I was shocked, I couldn't help but suddenly realize that it was no wonder that his strength was so unpredictable, and his understanding of "Xiao Yan Sword Technique" had reached a superb level.

It turns out he is Zhang Daoling!

In this way, there is no need to look for any other reasons. Just the three words "Zhang Daoling" are enough to explain many of these almost impossible things!

Because he is Zhang Daoling, even if a remnant soul bursts out with such terrifying power, it seems to be natural and not something difficult to accept.
Chapter completed!
