The ground rumbled and collapsed, revealing an underground cave.
Zhang Xiaozu's subtle state of mind immediately explored the depths of the underground cave, and unexpectedly found a cave deep in the cave. In the cave, a withered skeleton sat cross-legged, and a sword was placed in front of the withered bones.
The scabbard was as red as fire, which made Zhang Xiaopou immediately think of the Lihuo Sword, which is twinned with the Nishui Sword.
"Isn't this senior Cang Yazi, the ancestor of the Spirit Sword Sect?"
Led by Zhang Xiaozu, several people walked into the cave hidden deep in the underground cave and came to the withered bones. After observing curiously, they began to guess the identity of the withered bones.
Dry Bones only had a half-rotten green robe on his body, and no items that could identify his identity. The entire cave was also empty, and it seemed that only the sword in front of him could indicate his identity.
Zhang Xiaozu used his strength to brush off the dust on the scabbard, and then picked up the sword.
The hilt of the sword is inlaid with a fiery red, crystal clear gem.
The gems are filled with brilliant light, like clusters of beating flames. When your eyes fall on the gems, you can't help but sink in deeply. But you will immediately tremble with fear and look away, because there seems to be an endless sea of fire inside the gems.
It gives people a sense of fear of falling into a sea of fire.
There is also a gem inlaid on the hilt of the Backwater Sword, but it is blue, and there seems to be a blue sea inside.
Zheng!
Zhang Xiaozu held the hilt of the sword with his right hand and slowly drew the sword.
The sword body is red all over, and the sharp blade is illuminated by a red cold light. Near the handle of the sword, there are two flaming words engraved on it: Lihuo.
"It really is the Li Fire Sword!"
Qi Yoyo saw the two words on the sword and shouted in a low voice in surprise.
But when the sword was drawn halfway, the sound of the sword suddenly stopped, and it turned out to be a broken sword.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, feeling sad and sorry for it.
"The number one divine sword in the Nine Continents, the Nishui Sword and the Lihuo Sword, were all broken. If the people of the Lingjian Sect learned about this, they would be extremely sad." Qi Yoyo sighed.
"I wonder whose hand these two swords were broken in? This person's cultivation level must be extremely terrifying." Jin Zhihui said.
Everyone nodded when they heard this, and couldn't help but imagine the horror of the man with the broken sword.
"Strange..." Niu Dawa suddenly stared at the withered bones and frowned, with a look of confusion on his face.
"What's wrong?" Jin Zhihui asked.
"The Sword Against the Water and the Sword of the Li Fire are a pair, and they should be inseparable. Why did he leave the Sword against the Water in the thatched hut?" Niu Dawa asked in confusion.
Zhang Xiaozu heard this and replied: "He left the Nishui Sword in the thatched hut for the purpose of guarding the door."
"Gatekeeper?"
"Yes, guard." Zhang Xiaozu nodded affirmatively and said: "The Sword Against the Water and the Sword Formation echo each other. The Sword Formation can draw the Sword Against the Water out of its sheath and attack intruders. On the day we broke in, the Sword Against the Water didn't exist.
It was unsheathed because the sword array lacked the power to move and could not draw the reverse water sword out of its sheath."
He has thoroughly understood the entire sword formation, so he knows very well how to operate the sword formation.
"Fortunately, I lacked strength, otherwise that sword attack would have killed me on the spot." Niu Dawa said with lingering fear.
When he broke into the sword formation that day, just one sword energy damaged his soul. If the sword energy were replaced by the extremely sharp Nishui Sword, he felt that he would most likely be pierced through the head by the sword.
"Hey, it's a pity. I don't know where the two broken swords are. If they can be found, maybe they can find a swordsmith to replace them. It's a pity that such two good and famous swords are ruined like this." Zhang Xiaozu looked at his hands.
The half-cut sword said with great regret.
"Keep it for now, we may have a chance to meet you in the future," Niu Dawa said.
Qi Yoyo frowned slightly and said: "The Lihuo Sword and Nishui Sword are the Zongzong Divine Swords of the Lingjian Sect. If they learn that these two swords reappear in the world, they will definitely come to ask for them. If we don't give them to them, I'm afraid
To make a grudge."
"Haha, the second Qin family?" Niu Dawa sneered, "We picked this up in the wild. We didn't steal it, cheat it, or rob it. If they are unreasonable and robbed us, then we are not easy to bully.
of."
Zhang Xiaozu also nodded and said: "If you have a grudge, just grudge. There is nothing to be afraid of."
Niu Yao frowned and said: "It is better to make a good relationship than to have a grudge. Why don't we send these two broken swords and the remains of this senior to them, and build a good relationship with a little effort? Why not?"
As soon as these words came out, Niu Dawa and Zhang Xiaozhu frowned at the same time.
In the past, they might have had such thoughts, but after experiencing many things, they rarely had such thoughts of helping others.
When the two of them saw Niu Yao's questioning look, they couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
"Actually, I don't have bad intentions, I just think it's not cost-effective to have a grudge against a large sect over two broken swords." Niu Yao explained.
"Uncle Niu is thinking about it." Zhang Xiaozu nodded.
"Hmph!" Niu Dawa snorted and muttered: "These days, good intentions may not always be rewarded."
Niu Yao sighed, not that Niu Dawa's heart had become cold and hardened, but that the world was indeed as Niu Dawa said.
Zhang Xiaozu put away the Li Fire Sword and said, "Let's play with it for a while, and then give it to them after we've had enough fun. It's just two broken swords, so there's nothing to be reluctant to part with."
He wanted to take it back to Zhou Jianlai to play with, but if Zhou Jianlai couldn't put it down, he could only discuss it further.
"senior…"
Zhang Xiaozu walked up to the withered bones, bowed respectfully to them, and said: "I'm sorry for the offense and disturbing your remains, but I don't have any ill intentions. I just want to take you out of the underworld and send you home. I'm sorry."
"
After saying that, he reached out and swept away, preparing to send the entire remains into the void space.
The strong wind swept over the clothes with rotting bones and blew their sleeves to pieces.
"He's holding something in his hand."
Zhang Xiaozu suddenly stopped and his eyes fell on the hands with bones exposed from the rotten sleeves.
"It's a jade slip!"
Niu Dawa exclaimed in surprise, and couldn't help but speculate excitedly: "His life-long secrets will not be recorded in the jade slips, right? That would make him rich!"
When he said this, Zhang Xiaopeng and others all became excited.
"Forgive me, forgive me."
Zhang Xiaozu apologized and carefully took out the two jade slips from the hand that was tightly clenched with withered bones.
The jade slips are all light yellow and warm to the touch.
Zhang Xiaozu held a jade slip in one hand and poured his thoughts into the jade slip with great anticipation.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Two sword energy flew out from the two jade slips and followed Zhang Xiaopou's thoughts and penetrated into the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows.
Zhang Xiaozu was so shocked that he wanted to resist, but it was too late.
The two sword energies were so terrifying that he didn't even dare to use his soul to resist them.
"Senior, help!"
He yelled urgently, asking for help from the soul of the ancient corpse attached to his soul, but received no response.
In the midst of flint and lightning, Zhang Xiaopou's soul hid in the war gate.
Whoosh!
The sword energy seemed to have locked onto his soul, and would not stop until it was destroyed. It pursued him closely, broke into his battle gate, and chased him to the sea of stars.
Zhang Xiaozu's soul possessed the golden withered body, he stared at the two sword qi that were chasing after him and cursed angrily, then he grabbed out his hands fiercely, like catching a blue dragon, and grabbed the two sword qi directly in his hand.
Buzz!
The sword energy trembled continuously in the golden bone hand, trying to break free.
The red runes on the golden bones lit up and turned into chains, tightly binding the two sword energies in their hands.
