High Priest Wu Shu looked at Xu Yuan, paused, and said, "Let me tell you a story!"
Xu Yuan listened quietly.
High Priest Wu Shu came to the railing on the bow deck and found a comfortable position to sit down.
"A long time ago, in a fishing village at the entrance to the sea, there lived a little boy. His parents were all buried in the sea. He was alone and helpless, and he grew up eating the food of the village!"
"At that time, other people in the village were not wealthy, because the embankments at the entrance to the sea often burst. Once the wind and waves surged and the seawater poured in, the entire small fishing village would become a flood!"
"But even under such circumstances, the adults in the village still tightened their belts, saved the little food and distributed it to the children. The little boy was never left behind!"
"In this way, the little boy slowly grew up. Once again, the sea water poured in, and the small fishing village was submerged again. Many villagers were swept away by the sea water because they had no time to escape!"
"Among them, there was an old grandfather who was very kind to the little boy... The little boy knelt on the beach and cried. He wanted the sea to return his grandfather back. Unfortunately, the response to him was still the ruthless roar of the waves of the sea!"
"After the little boy went back, he found the village chief. He asked the village chief's grandfather, our small fishing village is here and the sea often floods everything. Why don't we move away..."
Xu Yuan listened quietly. Suddenly, he felt that his iron sword seemed to calm down as High Priest Wu Shu spoke slowly.
Surprisingly, those originally cold murderous auras naturally disappeared!
This is something Xu Yuan has never encountered before.
From the first time he saw this iron sword, the opponent had always looked murderous and ferocious, like a hedgehog, almost as if the murderous intent would strike anyone who dared to touch it easily!
But now, those murderous intentions have disappeared.
It disappears voluntarily.
When Xu Yuan got this iron sword, it was because of the help of the old clan leader of the Seascale Sky Demon that he suppressed his murderous intent.
One is man-made, but the one in front of you is autonomous!
It's like, the iron sword that used to be a hedgehog has now turned into a kitten with soft fur!
Xu Yuan was a little surprised.
He glanced at the iron sword, and then continued to listen to the words of High Priest Wu Shu.
"The old village chief did not answer the little boy's words, but took his hand, and the two of them walked to the cliff of the back mountain. From here, you can see the whole sea area. The old village chief asked, 'Child, you see
What does the sea in front of you look like?'"
"The little boy looked at it and saw that their position was quite high at the moment. In addition, it was the entrance to the sea. There was a lot of sea sand around it, forming a huge bay. Looking from a high position, it looked very similar.
Only eyes!"
"The bay formed by the dark blue sea water is the eyeball, and the sea sand accumulated around it is the white of the eye, and the black cliff here in the small village is like the eyelashes on the eye..."
"The little boy didn't understand what the old village chief meant, but he still said, 'eyes'!"
"The old village chief nodded, 'Yes, actually, it is our destiny to protect our village here. We cannot move away. We are the remnants of a tribe. Originally, our tribe was very prosperous. Warriors
countless……"
"But one day, they went to sea to conquer evil and never came back. And we, the remnants, have to wait here for their return. Our ancestors taught us that if we move away, those warriors who went to sea to conquer evil will never come back again.
Can’t come back!”
"Why?" The little boy raised his head and asked with some confusion!
The old village chief took a puff of dry tobacco and pondered for a long time before saying, "Because this place is our totem place. The totem our ancestors believe in is the eyes. This is the totem place chosen by our ancestors. We are the only ones here. Our ancestors
Only the fire of the totem will be immortal, and those warriors who go to sea, no matter how far away, will one day follow the light of the totem fire and return home!"
Having said this, High Priest Wu Shu continued, "The old village chief's words may have been a little difficult for the little boy to understand at that time, but the little boy remembered the eyes formed by the sea and understood the words on his shoulders.
A responsibility, stick to it!”
"Buzz!"
The iron sword in Xu Yuan's hand suddenly trembled for some reason, as if in response or as if it was whining.
High Priest Wu Shu took a look and continued, "Later, the little boy gradually grew up, and he took over the position of the old village chief and became the new village chief. But on this day, Dahai became angry more and more often.
Every time, within a few days, the village would be flooded..."
"The little boy was alone, sitting on the cliff in a daze. That night, he thought of what the old village chief had said to him before. That night, he also thought of the man who took care of his life after his parents left, and would rather go hungry.
Even though he is hungry, he still wants to leave the last bowl of fish soup to his grandfather..."
"But in the end, both the old village chief and the grandfather were mercilessly swallowed by the sea. For the first time, the little boy's heart began to waver in his persistence!"
"It wasn't until three days later that the seawater poured in again, submerging everything again, and also swept the little boy's beloved girl into the sea. He tried desperately to save people, but unfortunately, how could his strength be with him?
Compared to the sea?”
"The little boy could only watch the beloved girl being swallowed by the sea water...Only on the beach at the seaside, there was still a wooden bracelet carved from wood. It was a token of love given by the little boy to the girl, with the words "
One eye, as beautiful as a girl’s eyes!”
High Priest Wu Shu said, "That night, the little boy was lying on the beach and had a dream!"
"He dreamed that his parents came back from the sea to see him. Behind them, they were followed by the grandfather, the old village chief, and his childhood playmate... and the beloved he had been dreaming about day and night.
The girl, wearing a pure white dress, with bare feet, stepping on the pure white beach, with a beautiful garland on her head, was smiling at him and said she wanted to be his bride..."
"The little boy woke up suddenly, but in front of him, it was still pitch black, like a sea where a giant beast opened its mouth and roared, and all those familiar figures were swallowed up inside!"
"The little boy stood up and pointed at the sea and swore that you have swallowed up my relatives. One day, I will rely on my own hands to let you return them all!"
"After the boy went back, he made an extremely crude iron sword with his own hands. He started practicing sword practice every day. He knew that only if he was strong enough could he possibly bring back those relatives who were swallowed by the sea.
!”
"Because there is always a legend circulating among their tribe that the totem god of their tribe is the eye, and this eye belongs to the Poseidon in the sea. Therefore, the little boy believed that the Poseidon captured him.
Relatives!"
"The little boy was very talented in spiritual practice. Soon, he became invincible in the small fishing village. Even the people near the small fishing village could not beat him. Until one day, an old man passing by told the little boy that overseas
There is a fairy mountain, and there are immortals on the mountain who can become immortals. Only by learning the skills of the immortals can it be possible to save your loved ones from the hands of the sea god!"
"The little boy bid farewell to the villagers and embarked on his journey alone, carrying an iron sword and only a small raft..."
At some point, Lan Haitang came over with tears in his eyes and asked, "High Priest, did the last little boy save his family from the hands of the Poseidon?"
This was the first time Xu Yuan saw Lan Haitang looking so girly.
But, think about it.
Lan Haitang has been dependent on his brother since he was a child. His only relative was also killed by the Kuangsha Gang.
She had also experienced the pain of losing a loved one, so she could understand the little boy better.
High Priest Wu Shu said, "I don't know... I only know that when the little boy returned to the small fishing village again, a full hundred years had passed since he left!"
"But at that time, the sea changed, and the small fishing village no longer existed... That little boy sat on the original site of the small fishing village for three years, motionless!"
"When he stood up again, the sea, as if the heaven and earth had overturned, turned into a swamp again, and the totem of the eyes also disappeared!"
Xu Yuan asked, "High Priest, is this little boy Yang Zhenzong of the Zhenwu Divine Sect? And the small fishing village in the Totem Eye was later submerged by the sea, is it that unknown sea area?"
Lan Haitang was also shocked and looked at the high priest.
High Priest Wu Shu nodded.
"Yes, the Zhenwu Shen Sect's weapon is this iron sword!"
"I learned all this from my father. He was once refined into Immortal Servant No. 3. He lived in that sea area for a long time and accidentally came into contact with a lot of information...
…”
Xu Yuan was also shocked!
"But there is a situation that he can't figure out. This iron sword was taken from the old patriarch of the Sea-scale Sky Demon, and the old patriarch of the Sea-scale Sky Demon was killed a thousand years ago. Could it be said that the Zhenwu Divine Sect
Did it appear thousands of years ago?"
"Bah!"
Just then.
The rusty iron sword that was originally lying in front of Xu Yuan suddenly rose into the sky.
The sword body, which was almost broken, suddenly burst out with an incomparably bright light, without knowing where the energy came from, like a small sun, hanging in the sky.
The terrifying momentum and pressure came overwhelmingly.
Moreover, the sword was still trembling, as if something was calling.
But the sword body is trying hard to resist, as if it doesn't want to give in to the call!
"Boom!"
Almost at the same time,
In the west of this sea area, there was an earth-shaking vibration.
Xu Yuan suddenly stood up. He activated his divine eyes and looked far into the distance.
But the weird thing is.
That area seemed to be covered with a barrier, making Xu Yuan unable to see clearly.
The only thing that could be clearly seen was that deep in the sea, there was something like a small sun, emitting an extremely bright and dazzling light.
But Xu Yuan couldn't see clearly what it was.
What is certain is that that thing... appears in the depths of that unknown sea!
"There is something strange happening in that unknown sea area!" Xu Yuan said.
High Priest Wu Shu also said, "Some time ago, there was news that something would happen in that sea area, and now it has finally come true!"
"I'm afraid that this iron sword has such a reaction because of the things in that unknown sea... The thing that can make this iron sword have such a reaction is probably an extremely precious thing for the Zhenwu Shen Sect.
of!"
Xu Yuan doesn't have any greedy thoughts.
I am extremely lucky to get this iron sword.
However, what is more worrying is, what is the situation of the Five Elements slaves in that sea area?
If I had just seen that thing emitting a dazzling light with my spiritual eyes, it was really an existence comparable to an iron sword left by the Zhenwu Shen Sect.
Will the servant of the Five Elements let him go easily?
The ultimate goal of the various forces outside that gathered on Longya Island is the unknown sea area. When such news comes, they will definitely not be able to sit still and go to explore.
Could this be a trick of the Five Elements slave?
After all, their original intention of refining many immortal servants was to find a way to wear away the seal left by the Zhenwu Shen Sect so that they could get out of trouble.
The sea area usually has a bad reputation, and there are few people there, so it can avoid some situations.
But if more people go this time, will it help the Five Elements slaves to a certain extent and speed up their escape?
Xu Yuan's concerns are not unreasonable.
But High Priest Wu Shu seemed to understand Xu Yuan's thoughts. She walked over and patted Xu Yuan on the shoulder.
"Don't think so much, just take it one step at a time. Don't forget, that unknown sea area was once the hometown of the Zhenwu Shen Sect... The Zhenwu Shen Sect has always been a person who values emotions. He will not really indulge his slaves.
Turning the old site of his hometown into the hell of Shura!" High Priest Wu Shu said.
Lan Haitang was still worried and asked, "But, High Priest, the Zhenwu Shen Sect has gone to the outer starry sky and disappeared for so long. Can he really predict the actions of the Five Elements slaves?"
Xu Yuan said, "Don't worry, with Zhenwu Shen Sect's methods, if he couldn't even predict this situation, then he wouldn't have achieved such a prestigious reputation!"
"Okay, the sea area is about to be in chaos. I will take the people of the Qinglang tribe to evacuate first. Xu Yuan, be careful along the way!" High Priest Wu Shu said.
Xu Yuan solemnly clasped his fists and said, "High Priest, you have a safe journey!"
After bidding farewell to the high priest and everyone in the Green Wolf tribe.
Xu Yuan began to control the big ship and headed towards the unknown sea.
After being here for so long, this is also Xu Yuan's first time to go to that unknown sea.
He looked at the iron sword in his hand.
Ever since it suddenly burst into the sky and burst into violent light, it calmed down and was no different from real scrap metal.
But Xu Yuan, who knew its identity, couldn't help but sigh.
This is actually the weapon of the Zhenwu Shen Sect!
Moreover, High Priest Wu Shu said that the Zhenwu Shen Sect never gave up on this iron sword from the time it left the small mountain village until it returned a hundred years later.
It's not that he hasn't obtained and seen more and better treasures, but he is not tempted and keeps using his iron sword...
But if this is the case, why did this iron sword appear on the body of the old patriarch of the Seascale Sky Demon? Is it possible that the Zhenwu Divine Sect is really dead?
Xu Yuan doesn't know the answer.
Soon, they arrived at the edge of the unknown sea.
At this moment, a lot of people have gathered here.
Xu Yuan and the others had too many enemies, so they disguised themselves so they didn't have to worry about being recognized.
Perhaps everyone was wary, and no one dared to be the first to really rush into the unknown sea. They all stood not far away and watched.
Here, you can more clearly feel the terrifying aura fluctuations coming from the depths of the unknown sea.
If this thing is really a treasure comparable to an iron sword, once it is released, it will definitely trigger countless people to fight for it...
Just when Xu Yuan and the others were thinking this way.
Behind his boat, a larger boat suddenly came. On the bow deck stood a tall man with a beard.
He carried an ax on his shoulder and shouted aggressively at Xu Yuan and the others, "Hey, your little broken boat is in our way, get out of here, this position belongs to us!"
