After confirming that there were no living things around, Li Mingyue closed her eyes directly and tried to sense the surrounding situation, but she still felt nothing.
After a long time, Li Mingyue opened her eyes, filled with doubts. She looked up and continued climbing.
It was still the same as before. After climbing up a certain distance, another figure came towards him. Li Mingyue still used his body skills to avoid it as before. However, with his previous experience, Li Mingyue kept an extra precaution.
Directly summon a small pocket sword, lock the opponent's breath, and launch an attack.
"Ding!"
With a crisp sound, the small pocket sword was bounced directly and was completely nailed into the stone wall.
This time, Li Mingyue was sure that there was indeed something on the cliff. As for whether it was a human or a ghost, it was not clear yet. As for how the other party was hiding, Li Mingyue could not figure out either, but Li Mingyue was a Guiyuan realm monk after all.
I have traveled tens of thousands of miles and seen all kinds of strange things, especially with a little ghost beside me. That little ghost can go up to the sky and into the earth and hide in the earth, so what I have encountered now
, should be some kind of existence that can hide in the stone wall.
Li Mingyue knew that the opponent would not show up if he was alert, so he continued to climb up, but did not forget to sense the movement around him. Sure enough, Li Mingyue soon caught some strange movements, which were not far from him.
The stone wall there seemed to be moving.
Without any hesitation, Li Mingyue summoned three more flying swords to attack the stone wall. The thing seemed to feel the crisis, and its speed suddenly increased. It soon appeared in the sky above Li Mingyue, then left the stone wall and pounced on Li Mingyue head-on.
Li Mingyue placed his palm on the stone wall, and his whole body rolled sideways against the stone wall. At the same time, a long sword appeared under his feet, supporting his body from falling downwards.
This time, Li Mingyue saw clearly the appearance of this thing. It looked like a person, but it was not. To be precise, it looked like a monkey.
After this guy's sneak attack still failed to succeed, his body flipped in the air and stuck tightly to the stone wall, and then climbed up quickly. His speed was as fast as a sword.
Li Mingyue found it interesting and said with a smile: "Where to run."
After saying that his feet were a little bit lower, his whole body suddenly lifted upwards. After the strength disappeared, he slapped his palm on the stone wall and continued upwards with the help of strength. He repeated this over and over again, chasing the guy desperately.
Just like this, one after another, they soon reached the top of the cliff. The guy's body suddenly jumped into the sky, and then he fell leisurely into the dense forest, completely disappearing.
Li Mingyue stood on the cliff, feeling the changes around her, but felt nothing, and couldn't help but frown.
After sensing this for a while and confirming that there was indeed no trace of this thing, Li Mingyue had no choice but to give up and stand on the cliff, looking at the bright moon above the sea of clouds and the whistling mountain peaks, then closed her eyes and felt the world
of magic.
"Zhizhizhi."
After an unknown amount of time, Li Mingyue heard a voice.
Li Mingyue opened her eyes, followed the sound, and saw the thing from before retracting its head behind a big tree.
Li Mingyue smiled slightly, ignored him, turned around and continued to close her eyes, pretending not to notice it.
Not long after, the thing made another sound. This time, Li Mingyue did not look back, but she could clearly feel the thing coming out from behind the giant tree and cautiously approaching her.
Li Mingyue felt that this thing would definitely launch a sneak attack on him again, so she took the opportunity to catch it when the time came. But what Li Mingyue didn't expect was that this thing didn't launch a sneak attack. After walking about a foot behind Li Mingyue, it stopped.
Li Mingyue ignored it and wanted to see what this guy wanted to do.
Seeing that Li Mingyue didn't move, this guy continued to approach Li Mingyue, but he seemed to be very afraid of Li Mingyue, so he seemed particularly cautious.
It stopped again and kept barking at Li Mingyue, as if it wanted to talk to Li Mingyue.
Li Mingyue opened her eyes and looked back.
This time, the guy didn't dodge, but just jumped back with his whole body, keeping a distance of almost three feet from Li Mingyue.
Li Mingyue asked curiously: "What do you want to say to me?"
Although this thing couldn't speak human words, it seemed to be able to understand Li Mingyue's words. It kept gesticulating with its hands and making squeaking sounds.
Li Mingyue watched it sometimes gesticulating and barking. She seemed anxious and full of doubts. She asked tentatively: "Is this your territory?"
This thing actually nodded, then waved its arms quickly, and kept squeaking. This time, Li Mingyue understood that it meant to let him leave quickly.
Li Mingyue then said: "I will leave after a while. I will not hurt you, nor will I take your territory."
The thing squeaked twice and kept gesturing at the same time. This time, Li Mingyue didn't understand, so she ignored him, turned her head, and continued to close her eyes.
This thing probably knew that it couldn't drive Li Mingyue away, so it moved to the cliff not far from Li Mingyue, sat down, and looked at Li Mingyue secretly.
Li Mingyue originally wanted to have a deep understanding, but now that there was such an additional thing, it was really difficult to focus on anything else, so she simply opened her eyes, tried to talk to the other person, and asked: "Are you a monkey?"
The thing squeaked twice, seemingly dissatisfied with the name Li Mingyue.
Li Mingyue looked at it, and there was no doubt that it was a monkey. However, Li Mingyue had never seen such a monkey before. She probably felt that there was no point in staying. Instead of guarding this thing against thieves, it was better to go back and have a good sleep.
It just so happens that we have to go to Sword Tomb tomorrow.
Li Mingyue couldn't help but wonder about Jianghu. She didn't know if that guy had gained anything in the Sword Tomb. Can he encounter him after entering the Sword Tomb? And what kind of existence is this so-called Sword Tomb? Why can it be so powerful?
In it, people find a solution to the powerlessness of the Guiyuan Realm.
After making up her mind, Li Mingyue stood up from the ground. This move frightened the monkey so much that it jumped back a long way.
Li Mingyue smiled slightly, and then fell forward, his whole body trying to stop falling along the cliff.
The monkey exclaimed and quickly followed the stone wall down.
When he was about to fall to the ground, Li Mingyue flipped his body in the air, and after taking off the force of his fall, he landed firmly on the ground.
The monkey also appeared under the cliff at this time, and chirped twice, seeming to be quite honest.
Li Mingyue smiled slightly, waved to this guy, and then returned along the way he came. He thought this guy was quite interesting, and he actually worried about whether he would fall to death.
After returning to the other courtyard, Li Mingyue went directly to the room to sleep. At dawn the next day, the old man who was responsible for receiving Li Mingyue the day before came to the other courtyard. As previously agreed, he took Li Mingyue to the Jianzhong and
Tell me some information about Jianzhong.
Because she didn’t know how long it would take to go to the Sword Tomb this time, Li Mingyue explained some things to Wang Su, asking Wang Su to lead Murong Qiqi to practice first, according to the martial arts method, and then asked Li Mingyue to wash the food box he brought back last night
Return it to the old man in Jiange.
Although Wang Su didn't understand, he still agreed, and in the end he couldn't help but remind Li Mingyue to be careful.
After leaving the other courtyard, Li Mingyu thought of the monkey last night and asked: "There is a monkey in the back mountain, do you know?"
The old man was stunned, looked at Li Mingyue and asked: "Uncle Junior went to the back mountain?"
Li Mingyue nodded and said: "I came back a little late last night, so I went to the back mountain."
The old man nodded and said with a smile: "It seems that that thing is also destined to the little uncle. The little thing was brought up the mountain by Master Chen. According to the ancestors, it is a spiritual stone monkey that needs to be born from the spiritual stone.
Among them, it takes five hundred years to gain wisdom, five hundred years to practice, and five hundred years to achieve enlightenment."
Having said this, he paused and continued: "It has been more than a thousand years ago. It is estimated that it will take about another hundred years of practice before I can speak human words."
Li Mingyue was a little stunned. Firstly, he didn't expect this thing to be related to Chen Daoling. Secondly, he didn't expect this thing to have such an origin.
Li Mingyue said with a smile: "No wonder I can hide in the stone cliff and can't even feel a breath."
The old man smiled and said: "The Lingming Stone Monkey is one of the four great spiritual monkeys. It is bred between heaven and earth. It is a relatively rare species. It is rumored that once they achieve enlightenment, their strength is comparable to that of immortals, or even stronger. It is said that for a long time,
There used to be an intelligent stone monkey that caused trouble in the Heavenly Palace. If the immortal world had not suppressed it through deception in the end, it would have been impossible to subdue it."
Li Mingyue said in astonishment: "So powerful."
The old man smiled and said: "It's just a rumor. I don't know whether it's true or not, but it's enough to show that this thing is extraordinary."
Li Mingyue nodded, and after being silent for a while, asked: "What exactly is going on at the Sword Tomb?"
The old man explained: "Sword Tomb, as the name suggests, is the burial place of swords. The swords of the strong men of Tianjian Mountain throughout the ages are buried there. After all, not everyone's swords can be hung on the Tianmen, and those who cannot be hung on the Tianmen
Above it, and without the master's sword, it was naturally placed in the sword tomb, and it has been like this for tens of thousands of years."
Just at this time, the two of them had reached a high platform in the sky. The old man pointed to a mountain peak in the clouds and mist in front of him and said, "That's Sword Tomb Mountain, where the sword is buried."
Li Mingyue nodded and asked doubtfully: "Then what's the matter with being able to resolve the period of weakness in sword cultivation at the Sword Tomb?"
The old man smiled and said: "Although these swords have lost their director, they have inherited the will of their predecessors. If you can gain insights from these wills, you can naturally solve your own problems. In short, you can borrow the experience of your predecessors.
But everything needs to be consistent, and this kind of thing is no exception, so there is a term for the length of time. Some people can understand it in two or three days, and some people can understand it in ten, eight, or even a hundred years."
With that said, the two of them headed towards Jianzhong Mountain with their swords.
