In fact, it's not just a fight, even Zheng Xie himself is a little at a loss.
"Eh? This is..." At this time, the light shield made of light cocoon fragments, after blocking the breath of Jue Yi, directly turned into an ordinary miniature necklace decoration, hanging on Zheng Xie's above the neck.
But this looked like an ordinary decoration, but Zheng Xie knew very well in his heart that this thing could block the attack of Zhentianjing's breath.
After this scene ended, Zheng Xie came back to his senses, and smiled again: "Hehe...Senior, I am serious, I think senior is also a smart person, and he should understand what I mean, after all, there are some things that I can't help! "
Hearing Zheng Xie's words, Jue was taken aback for a moment, and after a while, he continued to reply: "I also know what you think, but I promised you, I will naturally tell you the way to leave... It's just that you If you want to play tricks, you will know the consequences..."
"Oh! What the senior said is true! As long as the senior can take me out, I will naturally hand in the Emperor Sword." Zheng Xie said flatly, ignoring Jue Yi's strength.
"Okay, come with me!" Jue said expressionlessly, it seemed that the meaning of Zheng Xie's words also made this strong man of Zhentianjing feel a little embarrassed!
From time to time, he turned around without hesitation and walked quickly towards the exit of the secret room.
But at the moment Zheng Xie was about to follow, his expression changed slightly, as if he had noticed something, his gaze suddenly turned to a stone wall behind him.
"Huh?" Zheng Xie was skeptical, but he didn't think too much about it, and after he calmed down, he ignored it.
So soon, the secret room completely calmed down.
……
Emperor Sword Town.
In fact, this small town has not always existed, but was established by Emperor Sword Village a year ago in order to accommodate the guests attending the wedding ceremony. Although this small town has everything that the outside world should have, the system still exists. It's not very mature, so there are very few places to play, and there is only one restaurant that is still lively.
This restaurant is called Emperor Sword Tower, and it is called the No. [-] restaurant of the Emperor Sword Clan by the Emperor Sword Clan. So this is naturally the number one restaurant.
On this day, four people came to this restaurant.
Two men and two women.
An old man in a black robe, and a young man in a red robe.
A woman in a long skirt who is about 27 or [-] years old, and a girl in white clothes who is only [-] years old.
Not long after, the young man in red and the woman in long skirt entered a room alone, leaving the old man in black and the young girl in white outside. It seemed that the two of them must have some secret matters to discuss.
inside the room.
The man in the red robe was sitting on a wooden bed, keeping his eyes on the woman in the long skirt, while the woman in the long skirt was standing by the window, her beautiful eyes were always on the street below.
"Among the four clans, only the Emperor Sword Clan has the Tree of Time. They have guarded the Tree of Time for countless years. Even in the great war that year, they would have risked the entire clan being wiped out, so they frantically took away the Tree of Time..."
"So it is impossible for him not to know that the rest of our three races have been peeping at the tree of time, and in this case, he still summoned our three races and the real sky mirror powerhouses on the mainland. From this point of view, there must be something wrong with him Telling secrets..." the red-robed man said softly, his tone full of certainty.
"Having said that, we don't know what he wants to do! So we can only wait." The woman in the long skirt replied.
"It doesn't matter if you wait, but I don't want to be stabbed in the back, so I think we can form an alliance temporarily, how about it?" the red-robed man suggested.
"Oh? Xia Tian...you actually want to form an alliance with me?" The woman in the long skirt seemed a little unbelievable after listening to him.
"Why not? I'm not stupid. There are so many unknown changes now, and the practitioners of Zhentianjing are coming here one after another, so I naturally have to protect myself as much as possible! Otherwise, if something really happens What happened, wouldn't it be bad for me?" The red-robed man said with a look of reason.
But what he said made the woman in the long skirt think for a while, and then she moved her beautiful eyes and murmured: "I see, this is why you came to me, right?"
"That's right! The Bamboo Heaven Clan and the Emperor Sword Clan are very close, and I know those unknown true sky mirrors, so no matter what, your Dao Spirit Clan is the best alliance partner..." The red-robed man did not deny, He replied directly: "Of course, the most important thing is... what do you think?"
Hearing that the woman in the long skirt here frowned involuntarily.
……
Beyond the ice cave, beside the invisible barrier.
After the green-robed woman entered the ice field, at noon that day, a girl in black with ponytails also came here.
There is no suspense, she is the black-clothed girl who met Zheng Xie, and is also the current Venerable Heiyou of the Emperor Demon Realm.
"Tsk tsk tsk! The Emperor Sword Clan is worthy of being the Emperor Sword Clan. Even if it's me, it will take a while to break such an awesome barrier, right?"
"But it doesn't matter anymore, I'm not here to fight anyway." The girl in black said indifferently, and walked into the ice field Tongtian holding a bronze token.
"The only thing I don't know... Will there be any troubles who will take the initiative to provoke you? Hehe..."
These were the last words spoken by the girl in black, but it was a pity that they disappeared in the wind and frost of the ice field in the blink of an eye.
……
Deep in the cemetery of the Emperor Sword Clan.
In a passage, three figures are slowly walking forward.
"Is this passage really an exit?" One of the figures looked at the dark and quiet place, and asked the person walking in the front lightly.
"My father has no need to lie to you. Of course, if you don't believe me, you don't have to go with us." A delicate voice replied angrily, full of dissatisfaction.
"I didn't say I don't believe it...it's just that it's been so long..."
"Okay, Ye'er, Brother Zheng didn't mean that...you think so?" At this moment, the last old voice sounded, he interrupted the person, and after a reprimand , and then turned his attention to that person.
"Hmm..." He sighed helplessly, then stopped talking and continued to walk forward.
The three people here are naturally Zheng Xie and the father and daughter of the Zhang family.
After some preparations, they are now walking in the direction of the exit guided by Jue Yi, but it didn't take long before they came to this dark passage, and they seemed to be in trouble.
They have been walking for about two days, but it is still pitch black here, and there is no way to exit at all. This makes Zheng Xie a little puzzled, but when he saw Jue Yi, he was not in a hurry, as if he had After knowing such an expression, he didn't have complete doubts, but directly raised his vigilance and walked forward with half-belief.
After all, he doesn't know the way here, so now he can only follow the strong man in front of him.
But he has already decided in his heart that whenever there is a situation, he will use the method he thinks of to deal with it. Even if the result is not good, he will not let the other party take advantage of it. The worst case is that he will die with the Emperor Sword.
Of course, this is a bad strategy, and he will never use it unless it is absolutely necessary.
Squeak! !
A strange voice sounded, Zheng Xie suddenly stopped in his tracks, staring closely at the front, then he slowly lowered his head, as if he had some thoughts in his mind.
"What are you thinking?" At this moment, Jue Yi's voice once again reached Zheng Xie who was meditating, but this time his voice was very clear and easy, giving people a particularly comfortable feeling, but this voice also disrupted Zheng Xie's thoughts at this time.
"Oh? No?" Zheng Xie came back to his senses and said in a low voice.
"Hehe! I know what you're thinking? It's been so long, and I haven't reached the exit yet. Anyone would be suspicious."
Zheng Xie was not at all surprised that Jue Yi had broken his mind a bit, but if Jue Yi hadn't found out, he felt that Jue Yi's name as a strong man would not be worthy of the name.
"Yes, I am suspicious, but I am only half suspicious."
Hearing Zheng Xie's answer, Jue was taken aback, then smiled and said: "Hehe... I'm so suspicious, so I don't know what your other half is?"
"I don't think you will just keep procrastinating like this. I have a feeling that you are also in a hurry, but there seems to be something hindering you. Although it is dark here, if there is a passage, there must be an exit..."
"It's just that I didn't find it, or you didn't let me find it. If this is the case, then I can only choose to be dubious."
"You really don't believe my father..." Zhang Ye frowned, showing his dissatisfaction with Zheng Xie again along the way.
Along the way, Zheng Xie has been doubting this, doubting that, making her who treats Jue Yi like a mountain, she is already very displeased with Zheng Xie like this.
"Ye'er! It's okay... what he said is not wrong!" But for Zheng Xie who questioned him, he still chose to suppress Zhang Ye.Because, he knew in his heart that Zheng Xie's doubts were correct.
"What? Father... Alas!" Hearing Jue Yi's words, Zhang Ye couldn't say anything now. He turned his head and fell silent.
And for this eldest lady who can already control a branch of the family, if she really loses her temper, she can only smile wryly.
Closer to home, what Zheng Xie said was actually not wrong. Although it was pitch black here, for the three of them, even Zhang Ye, who had the lowest cultivation base, was very visible, so they could naturally see it. Something, and they feel something too.
On this journey, Zheng Xie actually used some things to mark the journey very carefully out of doubt.
That's fragments!Very small, fragments of the sword.
Squeak!Squeak!
It turned out that there was a sword fragment under Zheng Xie's feet, making a soft creaking sound in this quiet place.It turned out that they had been going around in circles all along, and Jue Yi hadn't walked towards the exit at all.
But what is his purpose?
This is one of the questions Zheng Xie is thinking about now.
Facing Zheng Xie's questioning eyes, Jue Yi didn't answer immediately, but asked a few extremely strange questions.
"Do you know the name of this cemetery?"
"I don't know." Zheng Xie shook his head.
"Hehe, this place is called the Land of the End, then do you know...why is it called the Land of the End?"
"Huh?" Zheng Xie groaned softly, obviously, he didn't know what the strong man in front of him was going to do?But this made him alert all of a sudden.
Ignoring Zheng Xie's change, Jue Yi also looked around here with his eyes, revealing a sigh: "For the people of the Emperor Sword Clan, the Land of End is a kind of glory. All the people of the Emperor Sword Clan, They will all obtain this supreme glory in order to enter the final land after death, and they will spend their entire lives during their lifetime..."
"So among the Emperor Sword Clan, the place of finality represents the glory of the dead..." Speaking of this, in Jue Yi's tone, there is also a kind of embarrassment towards those ancient strongmen of the Emperor Sword Clan. admiration.
"But for so many years, only the most powerful people in the history of the Emperor Sword Clan can enter here after death, and when the second generation patriarch of the Emperor Sword Clan built this place, he also built an extraordinary road..."
"On that road, no matter how high or low the level is, as long as that person can find his own way on that road, then he can go through this road and go to any road he wants to go, and what we are walking now This road is the... path to the end."
"Wait..." Hearing this, Zheng Xie seemed to understand something, and couldn't help being taken aback. He quickly asked, "Do you mean that there is actually no way out here?"
"Hehe! Can you say this or not?" Jue Yi smiled, neither negating nor admitting it.
"How to say?"
"The phoenix can still be reborn from the ashes! Besides, it's just a road. On this road, we all have our own path, whether it is light or darkness, it depends on the heart..."
At this moment, Jue Yi paused again, and took a deep look at Zheng Xie before continuing: "Anyway, I have already brought you this way out, but whether you can go out or not depends on the individual... "
"Of course, if you don't find your own way until your power is exhausted, then you will have to assimilate with this darkness..."
These last words must be said one by one. Although what he said was very plain, it gave Zheng Xie an unprecedented sense of crisis!
"The road to the end?" Zheng Xie murmured!And his line of sight looked directly into the depths of this dark road.
But everything in front of him, apart from the darkness, is still darkness, like a giant beast with its bloody mouth wide open, waiting for its prey, falling into the endless darkness.
"There should be some way? Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to be so calm and composed!" Zheng Xie thought for a moment, and when he saw Jue Yi's stress-free expression, he felt suspicious.
"Hehe! You think too highly of me." Jue Yi smiled and shook his head.
"Why then?"
"You have to know that many things are useful without being anxious?" He said, his eyes fixed on Zhang Ye, and there was a little bit of concern in his eyes.
"On my path, there are too many things. Although these things sometimes overwhelm me, they inadvertently give me...a feeling that ordinary people can't feel."
"Ordinary people... can't feel it?" Hearing Jue Yi's last words, Zheng Xie thought for a while, but his whole body directly entered a state of emptiness.
To be honest, in fact, Zheng Xie also has a feeling that ordinary people can't feel, that is his soul.
It's just that his specialness doesn't seem to be the feeling that Jue Yi said, so the reason Jue Yi's words lead him to Kong Ming is also the reason why he is looking for the answer to this question.
So, what exactly is that?
Seeing Zheng Xie's contemplation, Jue Yi didn't bother him, just as he thought now, if Zheng Xie couldn't get out on this road to the end, it would definitely affect his acquisition of the Emperor Sword. It was not what he wanted to see, so if he could help now, he would try to help Zheng Xie as much as possible. After all, for him, helping Zheng Xie was equivalent to helping himself.
And Jue Yi's heart is relatively clear, even if the second-generation patriarch personally built this road to the end, he can't leave his descendants a way out.
Because it is impossible for the patriarchs of all generations to pass here and reach the end of the land.
Among them, there must be something else strange.
It's a pity that this question may only be obtained when the patriarchs of the Emperor Sword Clan in the past dynasties alternate positions!
"Let's go!" Jue Yi looked at Zheng Xie again, and said slowly.
"Don't wait for him?" Hearing Jue Yi's words, Zhang Ye was suspicious.
"It's not that we can't wait, there's no need to wait, he will meet us in the future, but not now..." After the flowers fell, Jue Yi had already started to move forward.
"What about the Emperor Sword?" At this moment, Zhang Ye looked at the back of Jue Yi walking forward, and frowned, not knowing what was going on in his heart, but suddenly asked.
But this question made Jue Yi's footsteps pause slightly, but it only paused for a moment, and a voice came over, listening to his tone as if he didn't care about the ownership of the Emperor Sword.
"Store him first!"
"Huh? Oh! Got it." Although Zhang Ye still didn't understand Jue Yi's thoughts, as Jue Yi's daughter, he also felt that Jue Yi must have his reasons for doing so out of a kind of understanding.
So she didn't ask any more, but directly followed Jue Yi's footsteps, and walked slowly towards the darkest place together, ignoring Zheng Xie who was still in a daze.
That's right, there is a reason for Jue Yi to do so.
He understands that on the road to the end, if he, the true sky mirror, knows more about scheming than Zheng Xie, but even so, Zheng Xie's scheming is the same whether it is dealing with things or considering details. They are all quite measured, which can be known from the fact that the Emperor Sword is still in his hands.
Originally, he planned to directly intimidate or lure him, but in the end he found that these were of no advantage to the young man in front of him. Instead, he might anger him and die with the Emperor Sword. Of course, he didn't want to see this.
It's just that after getting along with each other these days, he also understands what kind of character Zheng Xie is, so he has decided to give Zheng Xie advice and let Zheng Xie's cultivation go further. Zheng Xie's character of repaying kindness will definitely find him in the end and hand over the Emperor Sword to him.
As for whether Zheng Xie has the ability to comprehend, that is not what he cares about.
But in fact, he was taking a gamble. If Zheng Xie succeeds, then everyone will be happy, but if Zheng Xie fails... then it will prove that he really has no fate with Emperor Jian.
Slowly, the father and daughter walked further and further away, and finally disappeared into the darkness.
But not long after they left Zheng Xie, Jue Yi stopped slowly in an extremely dark place, his eyes looked ahead, sometimes clear, sometimes cloudy.
But after changing for a while, his eyes finally stopped on clarity, and then he stepped forward slowly without any hesitation!
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred, and a white halo suddenly appeared under his feet, and the moment this halo appeared, it directly enveloped Jue Yi and Zhang Ye who didn't know the situation!
At this moment, Jue Yi's expression was quite calm, as if he knew it long ago, and they finally disappeared in this dark place.
In the end, the dark place returned to calm again, and that white circle of light seemed to have never appeared before, and it seemed a little strange.
