Chapter 194: The Chosen One
At midnight, stars shone over the vast desert, and the cavalry and patrols from afar were endless. Dongfang Wan was meticulous and had already laid a lot of restrictions in the Wushan area, which could be easily blocked even if the exile land attacked.
On an ancient stone peak, there was a square table. Wu Sheng Yue Tian boiled tea with Taoist fire. Li Qingyin and Lin Muzhao and I sat quietly against each other, waiting to taste the martial arts skills. Soon after, the tea fragrance was everywhere. After taking a sip, I felt even more amazing. Wu Sheng’s tea had a unique charm and a strong tea flavor. After entering the mouth, I felt like I was running like fire, but it was not as spicy as it was. The mouth was just right. After entering the throat, it was like feeling a life of iron horses and gold swords, and the killing of soldiers on the battlefield.
"The tea from Wusheng Pavilion is well-deserved."
Li Qingyin's beautiful eyes were faint and she smiled and said, "Compared with other teas, it is full of the charm of military power."
"Life is just a mess."
Lin Muzhao held the teacup, his beautiful eyes shining brightly, and said with a smile: "The tea from Wusheng Pavilion better interprets this chaos."
"You are right."
Wu Sheng Yue Tian narrowed his eyes and tasted a sip of tea himself, closed his eyes and enjoyed the taste. After a while, his eyes shone brightly and said, "This kind of tea in me is originally a kind of bitter tea, but after my refinement, it can be called a medicinal tea, which has the effect of cutting off meridians and washing marrow and healing old wounds. Just as Fairy Mu Zhao said, life is just a desolation of soldiers and horses. Everyone can't escape the cage of fate. Everyone has their own calamity. The taste of life is all in it. Even if you have completed transcendence, who can say that you can really be transcendent above all things and really pursue the free state of ancient immortals?"
I took a deep breath: "Senior, what is the realm of the ancient immortal?"
"No desire or demand."
"If a person is really free from desires and no desires, what else is there?" As I spoke, I glanced at Li Qingyin, and her pretty face turned red. She gave me a warning and a coquettish look, as if she was warning me not to be too arrogant, after all, there are elders here.
Yue Tian was a wise man and smiled slightly: "Xiao Xuan, the way of mortals is also a kind of way of heaven. No desires and no desires is a kind of way, and seven emotions and six desires are also a kind of way. Even if you cannot break free from all kinds of worlds in your life, that doesn't matter. You can also achieve enlightenment. I have heard that in ancient times, a sage and a Taoist partner both saw through thousands of Taoist Dharmas, ascended together, stepped into the fairy world, and became a good story for a while."
Li Qingyin couldn't help but open her beautiful eyes: "Really?"
"Junior Sister Qingyin is moved..." Lin Muzhao chuckled.
Li Qingyin suddenly flew on her cheeks: "Senior sister, don't make fun of me..."
I felt that I benefited a lot and said, "If I can really achieve enlightenment in this way, it may be a direction. Thank you for your advice."
Yue Tian looked at me deeply and said, "But Xiaoxuan, you are different."
"Why?" I was surprised.
“It’s very simple.”
Yue Tian drank another cup of tea, sighed, and said, "You are the one chosen by fate."
This time, Li Qingyin and Lin Muzhao were both shocked: "Why do you say that, senior?"
"Fire of the World."
Yue Tian looked at the starry sky with deep eyes and said, "I have studied countless classics in my life, but no one has ever understood the fire of the world in my memory. This is not an ordinary fire. Even the fire of order and the fire of chaos cannot be compared with the fire of the world. The fate of those who understand the fire of the world has long been determined."
"What do you say?" I asked.
"Xiaoxuan, do you know why there is a place of exile, and why the fairy world completely sinks from the vast world of the three thousand worlds and disappears? At the moment when the fairy age disappeared, the fairy world disappeared in the true sense."
"Why?"
"Because the world order is broken." Yue Tianyi's eyes were filled with wisdom and said, "The war in the three thousand worlds has been going on for years and wars are endless. People pursue the way of heaven no longer to seek true great fortune, but to pursue powerful forces to fight each other in order to seek the power they have found. From then on, the weak will be prey on the weak and there will be no order."
"What does this have to do with me?"
Yue Tian sighed lightly: "The fire of the world can suppress all the rules between heaven and earth, reshape the order between heaven and earth, and even reverse the heaven and earth. Only those who possess the fire of the world are qualified to be the Creator."
"Creator?"
I was even more shocked: "Senior, are you saying... I have something to do with the Creator?"
"Well, even if you can't eventually become a sacred existence like the Creator, the difference will not be too far. If you can understand the fire of the world, it only means that the Heavenly Dao has chosen you, not others. Work hard to practice and keep the Taoist heart, and your thoughts may be able to reverse the coming of the future, and perhaps you can save the three thousand worlds that have been destroyed."
I frowned: "This joke is a big deal..."
Yue Tian also smiled: "Drinking tea and tea, you should treat my husband's words as a joke. After all...even if you understand the fire of the world, it is still too far from the Creator's step, and there are too many shackles that you need to break through. Besides... those taboos hidden in the dark may not tolerate you to continue to grow."
Li Qingyin frowned slightly: "Senior, senior sister and I...what should we do to help him?"
"No need to do anything, let it go."
Yue Tiandao: "You two are saints of Zhenguo Academy. Since your birth, you have already given their own missions. It's just that they are different from Bu Yixuan's mission. You also have your own way to go, and you don't have to give up your practice for him."
"I understand."
“By the way.”
Yue Tian nodded and said, "You three are already one of the youngest sword saints in the upper world, and they are not over one hundred years old, so... you will all be the best people in the upper world who will compete for the future of the grand ceremony, especially Xiaoxuan. I have insight into your holy ruins and sword heart. If nothing unexpected happens, you are now the strongest lower sword saint in the upper world, and you can even be invincible among the middle sword saints. The grand ceremony of the upper world must have a place for you."
Li Qingyin opened her red lips lightly: "The ceremony is not far away."
"Um."
Yue Tian looked at me deeply and said, "The ceremony is a battle between humans, demons and immortals. What they are fighting for is a crucial inheritance of the way of heaven. It must not be missed. However, those who are qualified to participate in the ceremony must be monks within a hundred years. If they are over a hundred years old, once they enter, they will be rejected by rules and destroyed. Although there are many talented people in the upper realm, very few can reach your level."
Lin Muzhao said: "It is said that... the Tianxin Empire originally planned to hold a pre-election meeting in Tianzhou in a month to select candidates to participate in the grand ceremony. If it were not for the attack of the exile land, we would probably have prepared for the pre-election for this grand ceremony now."
Yue Tiandao: "It doesn't hinder, even in the war, it will not delay the opening of the pre-election meeting of the grand ceremony. After all... Compared with the Battle of the Northern Wilderness and the Battle of Wushan, the grand ceremony in the upper realm is more important. It can be said that whoever wins the first place in the grand ceremony can become the real pride of heaven!"
I took a deep breath: "Yes, I remember it."
Lin Muzhao looked at the sky and said, "I will go to exchange Baili Mingjie tomorrow, recover the city, go to bed earlier. If we continue to talk, I'm afraid this chapter will be over."
Li Qingyin and I had a faint look, but we felt that what she said could not be refuted, so we bid farewell to the Martial Saint and returned to the camp arranged for us to rest.
...
The next day, early morning.
Clouds filled the mountains, birds were singing happily, and the camp was a little cold. I breathed a sigh of relief and sat up from the bed. I felt refreshed. The holy energy in the holy ruins of all things was full of energy, and my body was filled with strength. The rules of swordsmanship were surging in my blood like a torrent, and I could induce powerful power at any time. My state was never better.
After washing up, they walked out of the barracks. Li Qingyin and Lin Muzhao had already finished tidying up. They were dressed in white, which was so beautiful that they were beyond words. Under Shang Zhuyue's leadership, they headed to the northern desert together. In the clouds, the army marched hundreds of miles, stopped on a quiet and elegant plain, and went forward, blood clouds rolled in, and the people in the exiled land came.
"Swish!"
A figure walked out of the Blood Cloud. It was Blood Lord. His body had been reshaped, but his aura was much weaker than a month ago. I guess the attack of the Divine Vine Tree was too strong, so that even the taboo could not recover in a short time.
"Dongfang Wan!"
Blood Lord hugged his arms and said lightly.
Dongfang Wan stepped on the sky, holding a long sword in her hand, and said, "Blood Lord, I have brought Baili Mingjie. It's time to fulfill my promise."
"Don't worry."
The Blood Lord said coldly: "As long as you return the Young Master Baili to us, I will never disturb the lives of the twenty cities and twenty cities, so you can rest assured."
"That's good."
Dongfang Wan waved her hand: "Come on, return Baili Mingjie."
In the air, Shang Zhuyue flew up with Baili Mingjie. With the palm force, he immediately condensed several soft sword intents and sent Baili Mingjie out. At the same time, he pulled back the purple gold divine silk and gave it to me. In the air, Baili Mingjie cast a cold look. As the body seal was lifted bit by bit, he growled: "Bu Yixuan, I will let you pay your blood debt sooner or later!"
Blood Lord frowned: "Come here, send the young master back to the Northern Wilderness and send orders to continue. All the people in the exiled places in the twenty cities south of the Northern Wilderness will retreat to the Northern Wilderness! However, the human race must treat each other with courtesy when handing over the city, otherwise... don't blame me for being polite in the exiled places!"
His eyes were fierce.
The Queen of Tianxin narrowed her beautiful eyes: "Blood Lord, are you scared of my human race in the upper realm? The reason why I agreed to exchange Baili Mingjie for the city was just to reduce the damage. If you stumbling on the human race, I, Dongfang Wan, would take the initiative!"
As she said that, she waved her hand: "Go and take over the city. If the demon monks in the exiled land are entangled, kill them!"
"Yes, your Majesty!"
