The sky is like a dry river bottom, dotted with cracks and gray spots.
In the vast and primitive world, a strange and terrifying goose feather wind rages all year round.
When this kind of strong wind rages, it tears the void into countless tiny cracks, like flying goose feathers, hence the name.
If a strong person under the Tao Ancestor encounters this wind, it will be like being in a purgatory of being cut to pieces with thousands of cuts. Their body and soul will be tortured like Lingchi all the time, which is extremely unbearable.
If you can't bear it, your body and mind will perish.
Even if you can bear it, your vitality will be severely damaged.
And the goose feather wind is just one of the dangers of looking back on the sky!
"Hold on, this storm will pass soon."
In a goose-feather wind that raged across the world, a group of sword cultivators gathered together and trudged hard.
The leader was none other than Zhuo Yu from the Ten Thousand Demons Sword Court.
He held the Dao sword in his hand, and with a roar of cultivation, he held up a sword curtain, blocking the front like a shield, leading his fellow disciples forward.
The biting wind was like a sharp knife, tearing the void into countless pieces and hitting the sword curtain in front of Zhuo Yu, making a dense collision sound like a drum beat.
The sword curtain was in violent turmoil.
Zhuo Yu's face was pale and he was the most shocked.
Because he had to hold up the sword curtain to resist the goose-feather wind, he was like fighting against the heaven and earth, suffering impacts all the time, so much so that he was already injured.
Behind him, a group of fellow disciples also held up the sword curtain, and together with Zhuo Yu resisted this terrible wind disaster.
This situation has lasted for a full hour.
And this strong wind seemed to never stop, making all the swordsmen miserable.
Many people's physical strength is on the verge of exhaustion and they can no longer hold on.
But no one complained.
No one sighed.
They all pursed their lips, said nothing, and braved the strong wind to move forward with difficulty.
The path is chosen by oneself.
Even if you die, you have to go to the end.
"Senior brother, let me do it instead."
Behind Zhuo Yu, a woman looked worried.
She was closest to Zhuo Yu and could clearly see the cracks and fine scars appearing on Zhuo Yu's skin, and the blood seeping out, soaking through his clothes.
In this operation, Zhuo Yu, as the leader, undoubtedly suffered the biggest and most severe impact.
The female swordsman had been paying attention to Zhuo Yu along the way, and it was clear that Zhuo Yu's situation at this moment was far more serious than it appeared.
This made the female swordsman very worried and wanted to share some of the burden for Zhuo Yu.
"No need."
Zhuo Yu didn't even turn his head, and his voice was dry but firm, "If something happens to me, it won't be too late for you to lead the team."
The female sword cultivator was panicked, "Senior brother, are we... really being targeted?"
Originally, there should be a Taoist ancestor in this backward world as a guide to guide them to the origin of the Minghe River.
But the Taoist ancestor changed his mind and didn't come because he had something to do.
It seems that there is a good reason.
But before leaving the Sea of Destiny, Zhuo Yu said something -
"If we go together with the people from Taifu Temple and Blood River Palace, they will definitely be implicated by us."
At that time, they, the sword cultivators of the Ten Thousand Demon Sword Court, had doubts and suspected that something was wrong.
But Zhuo Yu didn't explain anything.
But now, the female swordsman made it clear and wanted to get an answer from Zhuo Yu.
Zhuo Yu remained silent.
Seeing this, another fellow student couldn't help but said, "Senior brother, none of us are afraid of death, and we have never thought about whether we can reach the origin of the Life River alive. We... just want a clear answer!"
"In this way, even if it means death, it will be a clear death!"
Others also spoke out one after another.
This gale was so terrifying that even if they were not afraid of death, they couldn't help but feel desperate and unsure whether they could survive to the end.
Zhuo Yu was silent for a long time, and then said: "The Taoist ancestor who was supposed to lead us this time is from the Shangqing lineage of Sanqing Temple, and his Taoist name is 'Songque'."
"You also know that Sanqing Temple and Sword Emperor City are sworn enemies, especially the Shangqing lineage. After the destruction of Sword Emperor City, they proposed to arrest and imprison all sword cultivators in the world who are related to Sword Emperor City."
"Later, although this proposal was not fulfilled, the depth of Sanqingguan's hostility towards Sword Emperor City can be seen from this."
Zhuo Yu said, taking a deep breath, "And the founder of our sect once practiced in Sword Emperor City, and has a close relationship with Sword Emperor City. This is something that everyone in the Xuan Dao Ruins knows."
"Why has our Ten Thousand Demons Sword Court fallen to this level today? It's all related to this reason."
There was a trace of hatred between Zhuo Yu's brows, "And just as you speculated, this time Operation Tinder... we were indeed targeted!"
For a moment, everyone felt depressed and looked ugly.
"How come the ancestral force of Sanqing Guantangtang, the leader of the Taoist lineage, is able to do things so well?"
Some people are angry.
Zhuo Yu said calmly, "They just want the world to know that everyone and everything related to Sword Emperor City will be suppressed."
"Under such circumstances, anyone with a bit of discernment will naturally regard the Sword Emperor City as a man-made disaster and avoid it as far as possible."
"As a result, Sword Emperor City will be completely isolated, and the situation will only become more and more unbearable."
"In the final analysis, they are here to deal with Sword Emperor City, and we are just the chickens killed to scare the monkeys."
Everyone was silent and had mixed emotions.
"Senior brother, to be honest, since the unreasonable disaster we suffered is related to Sword Emperor City, have you ever hated Sword Emperor City in your heart?"
Someone asked in a deep voice.
Zhuo Yu's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, "That's ridiculous! It's obviously not Sword Emperor City that is targeting us, so why are we complaining about Sword Emperor City?"
Everyone's expressions changed slightly, and they were as silent as a cicada, seeing that Zhuo Yu was really angry.
"When practicing swordsmanship, we have clear grievances and the Three Pure Views are oppressing us. Should we blame others for being involved?"
Zhuo Yu's tone was cold, "This is not how you should be doing things for others, and you must not do this!"
No one dared to speak falsely anymore.
"Let's go."
Zhuo Yu didn't want to talk about anything anymore and moved on.
Others followed.
Like a group of people marching against the wind to die, they may not see hope, but they will go to the end!
Under the sky far away from this goose-feather wind.
There are two figures standing out of thin air.
One wears a lotus crown on his head, a green Taoist robe, and a willow beard.
He is a Taoist ancestor of the Shangqing lineage of Sanqing Temple, whose Taoist name is Songque.
One is a short old man wearing gray clothes and white hair.
On the old man's forehead, between his eyebrows, there is a mysterious mark that looks like the word "mountain".
This is the unique totem mark of the "Mountain God Clan" in the origin of Minghe.
Every descendant of the Mountain God Clan is born with it.
The Mountain God Clan is one of the most supreme "Five Heavenly Punishment God Clan" in the Taoist Ruins of Creation.
His ancestor was a damned one!
"These sword cultivators from the Ten Thousand Demons Sword Court can be said to have strong character and strong bones."
Daozu Songque made a casual comment.
In his perception, he could already see the scenes of Zhuo Yu and others struggling to move forward in the strong wind.
"Fellow Taoist is the guide this time. Seeing them in trouble, why don't you help them?"
The short old man in gray clothes and white hair spoke.
His name is "Shan Qingxu", a deacon of the Mountain God Clan, and he has only cultivated in the true realm.
But facing Songque, the Taoist ancestor from Sanqing Temple, Shan Qingxu was not at all restrained and casually called him "fellow Taoist".
Songque said calmly: "I didn't add insult to injury, so they all have to be grateful. For now, just let them fend for themselves."
Shan Qingxu said in surprise: "Do these sword cultivators have enmity with fellow Taoists?"
Songque couldn't help but smile and shake his head: "It's hard to say that these sword cultivators are not qualified to enter my Dharma eyes. In the final analysis, they are dragged down by their sect's ancestors."
Shan Qingxu no longer asks any more questions.
They are just some unpopular sword cultivators, so there is no need to waste your time paying attention to them.
"Fellow Taoist, is this news reliable?"
The mountains are green and empty, and the tunnels suddenly appear.
Songque nodded: "In order to avoid attracting other people's attention, I will only contact one fellow Taoist this time, and no one else will know."
There was an uncontrollable expectation deep in Shan Qingxu's eyes, "If this matter can succeed, I will agree to the conditions of fellow Taoist as agreed before!"
Songque smiled and said: "Okay!"
Immediately, he raised his eyes and looked around, with a playful curve on his lips, "Nie Zhan, why don't you show up yet?"
Songque stepped on it.
boom!
Tens of thousands of miles away, the sky was shaking.
The void suddenly collapsed and collapsed, and destructive power raged.
The collapse was like a footprint, but as big as a ravine, making the world tremble in all directions.
Songque frowned slightly, "Is it a cover-up?"
Before the voice fell, a ray of golden light suddenly swept out near the void ravine that was broken into footprints, and shot towards the far distance.
That ray of golden light was extremely fast, as if it was traveling through time and space. It flickered and disappeared into the vast world.
"The aura has been locked by me. This time, you are doomed!"
Songque sneered.
The next moment, he and Shan Qingxu disappeared out of thin air.
As the first pass to the origin of the Ming River, Huihuitian has an extremely vast territory.
Although the movement caused here is huge, in the entire retrospect sky, it disappears in the vast sea like a wave, and most people cannot notice it at all.
However, Su Yi noticed it.
"Um?"
He quietly stamped his feet and looked into the distance.
"Did Fellow Daoist Su notice something?"
Dong Qingzhi, Yun Zhu and others who were following behind Su Yi all felt shuddered and quietly stopped and became alert.
An hour ago, they were led by Su Yi into the retrospecting sky.
Almost as soon as they arrived, they truly felt the horror of the "Looking Back Sky".
There are various disasters and murderous intentions lurking everywhere along the way, such as strong winds, hail, frost and snow, mud flows and whirlpools, etc.
Every kind of disaster carries weird and strange destructive power, all of which seriously threaten their lives.
It is no exaggeration to say that without Su Yi leading the way, they would have suffered countless disasters.
"It's indeed a bit of an unusual situation."
Su Yi was holding a wine pot in one hand, with a casual demeanor, and said thoughtfully, "It seems that some Taoist ancestors took action before, causing quite a stir."
Daozu!?
Dong Qingzhi, Yun Zhu and others looked at each other and took a breath.
Could it be said that there are Tao ancestor-level figures fighting in this retrospective sky?
