Chapter 93 The Remnant Soul of Nine Phoenixes

Jing Terrace is located on Mang Mountain on the west side of Barren Mountain. As one of the nine sects in the south, it is difficult for ordinary people to step into the mountain gate of Jing Terrace. However, ordinary monks still know the approximate location.

Outside Mang Mountain, there is a large city called Panyun City, which borders the Yan Dynasty, but is autonomous from Jingtai. Its name comes from the Panyun Peak near the capital. Practitioners generally call this place 'Panyungang'.

In early April, a team from afar slowly arrived at the foot of Panyun Peak.

There were more than ten people in the team, riding horses and carriages, covered with earthly objects. Not to mention flying swords, it was hard to see magic weapons. The entourage had to give way when they saw people, and they had to look at even a broken stone on the street for a long time.

The fledglings who had just entered the path of cultivation reacted like this when they came to Panyun Peak. The casual cultivators of the Immortal Master on the street did not pay attention to them at first, but when the motorcade passed by, they suddenly heard a noise:

"Old Lu, is this poor place called Jing Terrace? It doesn't look as grand as Lingquan's latrine."

"Haha, it's still far away. You have to go up the mountain and take a boat to get to the door. That's how grand the place is."

"Lao Lu, didn't you say you have an acquaintance at Jingtai Terrace? We traveled thousands of miles, and why didn't anyone come to pick us up? This way of hospitality is too petty..."

…

The one who spoke was a carriage at the back of the team, with an old man sitting in it who was sluggish and two idle little kids.

The casual cultivators on the street couldn't help but shake their heads secretly when they heard the sound. They felt that these outsiders were too ignorant of the world. However, with this sarcasm in their hearts, they were quickly attracted by the movement in the distance.

I saw a stream of light on the horizon, flying out from between the mountains, and in an instant it was above the market, with a young man in a robe standing on the sword.

There were many casual cultivators in the market, and their swords flew over the heads of the crowd. This was a big taboo in the practice. If you were not careful, you might be dragged down by an ancestor and taught you the meaning of 'respecting the elders and the younger'.

However, the young man who came with the sword seemed to have a relatively advanced background and didn't care about these rules. He flew directly over the market and landed in front of the carriage.

On the carriage, the experienced Wang Rui who came with him saw an expert with a sword stopped in front of him. He was obviously a little timid and whispered:

"Mr. Lu, are you taking us back or sending us on our way?"

Zuo Yunting shook his fan and looked up:

"She looks older than me, but her talent is definitely not as good as mine. Don't be afraid."

Obviously, Zuo Yunting really remembered the saying "The younger you are, the higher your talent; the older you are, the more amazing your sword skills are", but he just forgot that there is another sentence "Between people in the same realm" after it.

Lao Lu stopped the carriage and raised his hand to signal the third uncle of Qihuang Valley to continue walking with his disciples. He raised his head:

"Qi Jia, why are you here?"

Qi Jia, dressed in white robes, jumped down from the sword and said with a smile:

"I didn't come here to pick you up, I just wanted to see what that genius who is so different from me is like."

While speaking, Qi Jia looked at the two young men on the carriage, glanced casually, and saw who was 'Yun', and his eyes were stunned.

Qi Jia is the young master of the Zhongzhou family, and his talent is considered to be rare among the nine sects in the south. When he came to the south this time, it was not that he had never seen the proud sons of the nine sects, but today was indeed an eye-opener.

I saw two young people on the carriage, both seventeen or eighteen years old. One of them was at the third or fourth level of Qi Refining at most, and could only be regarded as a small fish, while the one next to him was incredible!

Qi Jia thought he had some eyesight and knowledge, but at a glance, he didn't even see through this young man holding a folding fan.

This man looks to be no more than twenty years old. He can't detect the slightest breath flowing through his body, and his behavior is full of flaws, as if he has been knocked down by the wind. No matter how you look at it, he is an ordinary dude. But he is such an ordinary person, and he dares to say that sentence.

'The talent is definitely not as good as mine'.

In Qi Jia's opinion, anyone who dared to say this in front of him had either seen through him or had something wrong with his mind.

The seedling that can be favored by Lao Lu should not be the latter.

Qi Jia looked at it for a moment and found that he really couldn't see the way out. He became more solemn in his heart. He took a step forward and said:

"Brother, I am Qi Jia. Nice to meet you."

Zuo Yunting waved his fan, but he was not rude. He raised his hand and returned the salute:

"Nice to meet you. I'm at Zuo Yunting. Feng Chu, the two heroes of the Zuo family, is meeting for the first time..."

Qi Jia was neither humble nor arrogant and listened carefully, not daring to neglect at all.

Lao Lu couldn't stand it anymore, so he waved his hand and motioned the two fools to go shopping by themselves. He got out of the car and came to Qi Jia and asked:

"How is the apprentice I have accepted?"

Qi Jia's eyes were still on Zuo Yunting, slightly surprised:

"This seedling is quite powerful. I think he is just a mortal, but his breath control is incredible! I heard this man calls himself 'Feng Chu', could it be that there is also a 'crouching dragon'?"

Lao Lu walked into the tea shop, threw two white jade bahts to the waiter, and said with a smile:

"Wolong didn't come, otherwise your sword heart would have collapsed."

Qi Jia felt a little unbelievable when he saw that Lao Lu didn't seem to be cheating:

"More powerful than this one?"

"The difference between cloud and mud."

"..."

Qi Jia thought about it and didn't believe it:

"It's all mud outside, who am I?"

Lao Lu shook his head, showed an expression that Qi Jia couldn't figure out, sat down in the tea shop, and turned to ask:

"A few days ago, Lord Linyuan and Lord Huangshan showed up in the Great Dan Dynasty, and I didn't dare to go there. Do you know what happened specifically?"

Qi Jia took a sip of the immortal tea 'Jinglu Mingchun', a specialty of Jingtai Terrace, and said with a vague understanding:

"It seems that those two ancestors are trying to steal the remaining souls of the Nine Phoenixes. I don't know the details. Ask Elder Qiu, he will definitely know."

When Lao Lu heard this, he frowned slightly - he knew a little bit about Jiufeng. The four spirits in the sky control the four directions of the earth. Suzaku is one of the four spirits and controls the south. The world is divided into nine continents, so there are still

The nine descendants, collectively called the Nine Phoenixes, belong to the south of each continent. These mythical beasts came into being to maintain order on behalf of heaven and earth. As long as heaven and earth are not destroyed, they will exist in the world forever.

Although Jiufeng is said to be immortal, it does not mean that it cannot be replaced.

Divine beasts have spiritual consciousness and are too powerful. At some point, they will break free from the constraints of heaven and pursue themselves; things that suppress the world and the world leave without permission, and the impact on the world will naturally be devastating.

Just like the last Nine Phoenix 'Stealing Pill' in the south of Yuyaozhou, it somehow broke free from its shackles in ancient times and turned into a karmic fire that burned the world. It almost burned the south of Yuyaozhou clean. The monks from the entire Yuyaozhou worked together to

It was then sealed and suppressed under the barren mountains; among the nine sects, the 'Iron Mansion', 'Tiandi City' and 'Fulong Mountain' were also established during that period.

The four spirits of heaven cannot be missing, so when the old phoenix is ​​about to die, heaven and earth will give birth to a new nine phoenixes on their own, taking the place of the 'Stealing Pill'.

Compared with these ancient legends, Lao Lu's age is obviously a new generation. I thought that after so long, the old phoenix had been sealed and exhausted its true energy and replaced. I didn't expect that a wisp of remnant soul would emerge.

, making such a big noise.

It is obviously useless to ask Qi Jia about these things.

Lao Lu hesitated for a moment, then left the tea shop, appeared above the market, and then passed through the mountains and sea of ​​clouds, arriving at a high peak.

The Jingtai Sect is very large, with numerous fairy mountain pavilions, the peak is located in the center, and a Zhenjian Pavilion is built above it.

Although the Sword-Suppressing Pavilion is closed, you can still feel the strong sword energy like a bone scraper from outside.

Lao Lu walked against the wind and arrived outside Zhenjian Pavilion. There was already a person waiting outside the gate of Jiange Pavilion.

The man was wearing a cloud-patterned gown with a sword hanging from his waist. He was actually only about thirty years old and quite handsome.

Lao Lu recognized this person, landed in front of him, and said with a hoarse smile:

"Qiu Fengqing, I haven't seen you for many years, but you haven't changed much."

Qiu Fengqing, the sword-wielding elder of Jingting Terrace, was a contemporary of Lao Lu. When they were young, they traveled around the world and lived and died together, and their friendship was very good. Seeing Lao Lu coming, Qiu Fengqing stepped forward and smiled:

"Lu Jianchen, how come you are so virtuous? Just by looking at your face, I thought some ancestor from some family came to grab the sword, which scared me."

Lao Lu looked a little sad. He found a stone table outside Zhenjian Pavilion and sat down. He took off his bamboo hat and revealed his gray hair:

"As soon as I become a cultivator, I won't be as lucky as a sect member like you. If nothing happens, you will be able to come and pay my last respects in a few years."

Qiu Fengqing was not angry at this. He sat down across from the stone table, shook his head and said:

"If you die early and are reincarnated early, you may meet again in the next life. By the way, last time you asked Qi Jia to come over to practice dual cultivation techniques. Did you want to leave a trace of incense before you go to the grave? This is a good thing. You should inform me if you are born.

At your age, it’s appropriate to be a godfather.”

Lao Lu shook his head, stopped scolding the turtle grandson, and got down to business:

"A few days ago, your ancestor went to the other side of the mountain and had a quarrel with Ancestor Shangguan. It was said that it was about the remnant soul of Nine Phoenix. What happened?"

Qiu Fengqing is the descendant of Lord Huangshan. Lord Huangshan didn't do anything in the past few days. To be honest, he felt a bit useless. However, Lao Lu is an old friend, so he didn't hide it and said:

"The 'Stealing Pill' sealed under the mountain should have died soon. However, the ancestor did not expect that the sealed phoenix left a trace of its soul outside."

Lao Lu nodded slightly and pondered for a moment: "It is said that a phoenix can be reborn from the ashes. Could it be that the out-of-control old phoenix wants to use this residual soul to be reborn in Nirvana?"

Qiu Fengqing shook his head: "According to our ancestors, when the old phoenix broke free from the shackles of heaven, it also lost its immortal and divine power. If it wants to be reborn, it will be a new phoenix, not it. Leave a trace in the place of birth.

The remnant soul probably knows that a new phoenix will be born nearby, and wants to take advantage of the young phoenix to occupy the magpie nest by seizing the dove's body."

Lao Lu understood a little bit and asked: "Since we were preparing to seize the body and it was not discovered for so many years, why was it found by the Shangguan Ancestor?"

"The ancestor said that the little phoenix has been born, and the old phoenix has been trying to seize its body. In the past, it was afraid of being noticed, so the movement was very small, but their souls were entangled with each other. It is estimated that something happened to the new phoenix that day, which in turn suppressed the old phoenix.

Phoenix also summoned the old Phoenix, and the remaining soul was exposed in the world with no way to escape, so it was caught by the foresighted Ancestor Shangguan."

When Lao Lu heard that the new Phoenix had appeared, he was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it for a moment, he remembered the little wine girl he met in the Great Dan Dynasty.
