Chapter 276 Taiyang 824th Year
Boom!
The purple lightning sword flew across the sky, thunder roared, and with the fall of the Divine Thunder Controlling True Art, the huge humanoid black shadow that looked like a ghost shattered and disintegrated into nothingness.
Zhou Heng waved his sword finger, and the purple lightning sword was retracted from the air. Looking at the place where the black shadow was broken, his brows were furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "The strength of this thing is not weak. It has surpassed the best among the top seven-grade warriors, and its strength is close to the real secret six-grade."
"That's right." Cheng Jiangjian nodded lightly, and at the same time put away a magic weapon that was flying around her. "If we didn't have treasure weapons and magic weapons, this battle would not end so quickly."
For any warrior at the top of the seventh grade, the difference between the secret six-grade is extremely great, even for Zhou Heng and Cheng Jiangjian.
Although the humanoid black shadow just now did not really reach the level of the secret six-grade, its strength is also extremely powerful, and the two of them have just come to this world and have not yet been integrated with the laws of heaven and earth. They can't even do the internal and external manifestations, and their strength is greatly reduced.
Thanks to the precious purple lightning flying sword and the secret sixth-grade magic weapon in Cheng Jiangjian's hand, the humanoid black shadow was defeated so quickly.
Otherwise, it would definitely be a hard battle.
"Little Master, Sister Cheng, I, I don't seem to be of any use..." Zhu Zhenzhen was a little depressed.
Just now, she found that she could only watch Zhou Heng and Cheng Jiangjian fight the humanoid black shadow, and she couldn't help at all. This feeling made her feel very uncomfortable.
"What is the little genius who is already a seventh-grade at the age of fourteen talking about?" Cheng Jiangjian smiled and touched Zhu Zhenzhen's little head, comforting her: "When my little master and I were your age, we were not as powerful as you."
"But this time I seem to be very useless." Zhu Zhenzhen shook her head.
"It's not a bad thing to face your own weakness." Zhou Heng did not comfort Zhu Zhenzhen, but said in a deep voice: "As long as you practice hard after this time and become stronger as soon as possible, you can change this helpless state."
"..." Zhu Zhenzhen was silent for a while after hearing this, and then nodded heavily, saying: "I will, I will do my best this time and will not hold you back!"
She grew up in Taihua Mountain since she was a child. Although she has excellent qualifications and character, she has never encountered any hardships. This experience can be regarded as a refinement of her mind.
It is good for future practice.
Cheng Jiangjian saw that Zhou Heng's words made Zhu Zhenzhen get out of depression, and she couldn't help but marvel at it.
She couldn't help but admire Zhou Heng's ability to judge Zhu Zhenzhen's psychological state so quickly and give appropriate comfort.
It's really amazing.
"Next, we have to leave this grassland as soon as possible to see if we can find a gathering place for living creatures or other people who have been taken in here." Cheng Jiangjian calmed down a little, looked around, and said, "But which direction should we go now?"
This grassland is endless, and there is no ups and downs in all directions. It is just like the end of the world is grassland, without even a little mountain or terrain fluctuation.
Zhou Heng looked at the sun in the sky, thought for a while, and said, "Let's go east first."
If you can't judge by the environment, you can only try your luck and start looking from the east where the sun rises.
"Okay."
Cheng Jiangjian nodded slightly when she heard it, and then patted the jade gourd on her waist. Immediately, a cloud of light flew out of it and floated in the air. She smiled and said, "This is a secret treasure of the sixth grade. It has no special effects, but it can carry people and fly at a fast speed."
"This... Can your internal energy support it?"
Zhou Heng looked at the cloud of light in astonishment, and then looked at the jade gourd hanging on Cheng Jiangjian's slender waist.
Sometimes he really wanted to ask, how many secret treasures are in this girl's gourd?
How come it seems to be all-encompassing, as if there is everything, never running out, and no duplicates.
Then, the three of them rode on this cloud of light and flew to the east.
When leaving, Zhou Heng took out a paper man that had been "soaked" in the power of the cave for a long time, and threw it casually to make the paper man turn into his own appearance.
This paper man was contaminated with the power of the cave, and it could last longer, and it could be remotely sensed and controlled through the connection of the cave. He had obtained the Tianren Cave for several months, and only "soaked" out such a paper man.
Very cherished.
While the paper man turned into a human form, Zhou Heng used another secret treasure.
The Seven Arrows Book with a Nailed Head!
On this vast grassland, the paper man raised his hand and a camp immediately appeared. There was a high platform in the center of the camp, and a straw man was tied on the high platform, with a lamp on his head and a lamp under his feet.
The paper man entered the camp and stepped onto the stage, stepped on the stage, wrote talismans and made seals, and bowed to the straw man.
The straw man had a name written on it.
Zhao Zhen!
…
Compared with Zhou Heng and others who were teleported to the deserted grassland, Zhou Yin and Zhou Danqing were much luckier. The place where they appeared was a town.
But they were also unfortunate.
There were no living people in this town. It was full of zombies with bodies like fine steel, infinite strength, and wind-like movements. The worst ones had the strength equivalent to the ninth level of martial arts, and most of them were at the eighth level.
There were at least thousands of them!
Fortunately, there was Zhou Danqing, a sixth-level master. Otherwise, if Zhou Yin was alone, facing so many powerful zombies alone, he would either die or be injured.
—— At the level of the third level, no matter how strong I am, I may be killed by the low-level warriors with numbers.
However, the greatest advantage of the Secret Sixth Grade is actually the intersection of the inner scene and the outer world to control the power of nature. But now that the world has changed, Zhou Danqing is unable to mobilize the vitality of the world at will in a short period of time, and his strength is greatly reduced.
Fortunately, through constant fighting, he accelerated the speed of the inner world to adapt to the legal rules of the new world. After a difficult battle in the early stage, he was able to kill zombies faster in the later stage.
Even so, after the battle, he still had lingering fears.
"Sir, why did we come to this place? What does that Prince Da Qi want to do?" Zhou Danqing's face turned pale and he was very angry, "You are so audacious."
"Zhao Zhen and Zhao Qin have very big plans." Zhou Yin said with a gloomy face: "They must have reached some kind of cooperation with Taixu Guan or the Tang family, and we are being treated as pawns."
"How brave!" Zhou Danqing was so angry that his beard was trembling, and said: "Sir, do you have any special back-up plan to get out of here? As long as we get out, we will go home to find the master and ask for justice from the Tang family."
"Special back-up man?" Zhou Yin glanced at Zhou Danqing lightly and chuckled: "Why, you, the protector, are now relying on me? It's a pity that I'm not awake enough to touch the back-up man."
But I'm thinking in my heart, if I had such a powerful backhand as Zhou Heng in my previous life, I would have used it a long time ago. How could I still stay here and worry in vain? !
However, after all, he was a divine reincarnation who deceived the entire Southern Jin Dynasty. Naturally, he was an unusual person, and he was thinking about a way out.
"It's my fault." Zhou Danqing apologized respectfully to Zhou Yin, then looked at the ruined town, and sighed: "I thought I could get some news here, but I didn't expect it to be everywhere. monster."
"People have become monsters, but the buildings and things are still there. We may not be able to get useful information." Zhou Yin turned his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Danqing, go and look for it to see if there is anything left that records text or information. ”
Although this town is dilapidated and most of the houses have collapsed into ruins, there are still some places that are barely intact, and there may be some useful things stored in them.
"Good idea, Master." Zhou Danqing nodded repeatedly, then turned and walked towards the ruins, while spreading his consciousness to look for things that might record information.
After a while, I really gained something.
Zhou Danqing came over with three pieces of jade and four copper pieces, but his expression was very solemn. He carefully spread these things on a stone platform next to him and said: "Sir, I'm afraid something is not right. Look. Read the text above."
"Made in the 823rd year of Taiyang..." Zhou Yin looked stunned when he saw the words on one of the jade stones. He then looked at the other two jade pendants and four copper pieces, and couldn't help but murmured,
"...Taiyang 823 years, these copper plates... Taiyang 824 years... Taiyang 824 years... What is written on these copper plates is from the Middle Ages to the Battle of Tianyang The Jin Zhang Calendar, which was popular before the end, stopped in the 824th year of Taiyang..."
In the Middle Ages, hundreds of schools of thought formulated a unified calendar. In order to facilitate preservation, copper sheets were used as "golden seals" and the calendars were engraved on them and passed down to thousands of families.
Therefore, this calendar is also called the "Golden Zhang Calendar".
However, in the Middle Ages, there were eight hundred kingdoms, and there was no emperor's reign in the Jinzhang Calendar. It was not until the end of the Middle Ages and the establishment of the Central Dynasty that the emperor's reign was added to the Jinzhang Calendar.
Taiyang is the reign name of the last emperor of the Central Dynasty, "Emperor Taiyang".
And Taiyang 824, twenty-four years have passed since the Taiyang 800 when the Tianyang War broke out.
"Where did this town come from so many antiquities?" Zhou Danqing asked doubtfully.
"No, I don't think this is an ancient relic." Zhou Yin shook his head gently, touched the jade and copper pieces with his hands, and said in a deep voice: "Perhaps, the people here were born in the 824th year of Taiyang. They turned into a group of walking zombies, maybe this is related to the Battle of Tianyang..."
Having said this, he suddenly turned his head, looked at Zhou Danqing, and said in a deep voice: "Danqing, how much do you know about the Battle of Tianyang?"
"I...I know very little." Zhou Danqing shook his head and said: "Sir, do you suspect that the strange situation here is related to the Tianyang War? But judging from my inner scene perception, this place should already be on the other side. The world is right.”
"Even if you enter another world, it may not have anything to do with the Tianyang War." Zhou Yin looked at the ruins again and said, "Danqing, let's look for it again."
…
Fang Wen held his sword and walked alone in a mountain forest.
This swordsman, who was as handsome as a woman, walked lightly and could hardly hear the sound as he walked. This was done deliberately to avoid disturbing the monsters wandering around the mountains and forests.
At this time, his snowy white clothes were stained with blood stains of different colors, including red, green, purple and black, mixed together.
When Fang Wen was teleported to this square cave world, he appeared directly in a group of strange monsters. At that time, those monsters were fighting for the body of a monster.
Fang Wen's sudden appearance made these monsters go crazy. They gave up fighting for the monster's body and rushed towards him.
In the end, they were all killed by Fang Wen with one sword strike.
Different from the ordinary seventh-level peak or even the secret sixth-level, his power comes from his own sword energy and sword soul, and he has not yet found a way for the sword soul to intersect with the outer world. Therefore, even if the world has changed, his strength is still the same. Almost unaffected.
Still strong.
However, the monsters in this mountain forest are not weak, there are many of them equivalent to the seventh grade, and most of them have extremely strong mental pollution, and some can also display all kinds of weird abilities, making them difficult to guard against.
Therefore, Fang Wen still tried his best to avoid fighting with these monsters, lest he failed to solve them with one sword and caused a big stir and attracted more monsters.
That would be troublesome.
In his opinion, for the present plan, it is better to get out of this mountain forest as soon as possible.
As he walked, Fang Wen suddenly discovered that the road in front of him seemed to have traces of manual axe-cutting. Although many places had been covered by weeds and vines, some of them could still be seen.
"Has anyone come in front?" This made his eyes light up. There were traces of someone, and he thought it was possible to get information and know where this place was.
So Fang Wen continued to follow the traces carefully. After walking through layers of roads that looked like stairs, he saw a dilapidated mountain gate archway.
This archway was carved out of stone. It has now collapsed and is covered with moss and vines. Only a bit of its original shape can be seen. Even the core text on the plaque is covered with moss and cannot be seen clearly.
Fang Wen let go of his sword sense, and after confirming that there were no monsters around him, he activated the sword energy in his body and blew it forward gently. Immediately, the invisible sword energy blew away the vines and moss, completely revealing the broken mountain gate archway. out.
Although the words on the plaque have become very blurry due to the passage of time, you can almost clearly see what words are written on it.
Jiange.
Fang Wen was stunned immediately, with a look of astonishment on his handsome face, and murmured: "Jiange?! Is this the mountain gate of Jiange? How is it possible..."
Sword Pavilion is the top sect established by the "Sword Master", one of the Nine Saints in the Middle Ages. It was the ancestral court of swordsmanship in the world before the Tianyang War.
Entering the Sword Pavilion was once the ultimate goal of countless swordsmen practitioners. However, for such an extremely powerful sect, in the middle of the Tianyang War, around the 820th year of Taiyang, the entire mountain sect was destroyed overnight. , disappeared into thin air.
No one knows where Jiange went.
The founder of the Tao of Immortality actually accidentally obtained some of the inheritance left by Jiange and opened up the current Tao of Immortality.
The Patriarch of the Tao of Immortality has been searching for the whereabouts of Jiange all his life, but he did not find any valuable clues until he passed away.
Fang Wen did not expect that he would find Jiange under such circumstances.
What I didn’t even expect was——
The ancestral court of swordsmanship was only left in ruins.
If I said it broke out over the weekend, would you believe it?
