Chapter 377: Covering the Mirror

Even with some guesses, Seeing Pei Ye still gripped his sword hilt tightly at this moment.

This person Qu Zhu was just in front of his eyes. They had exchanged dozens of killing moves with each other how many times.

In the end, he still came and went freely.

This was a helplessness without a solution. The youth plus Zhanxin Liuli could not be equal to a real Yueque, or rather, it was his own speed and perception that limited Zhanxin Liuli. This power could only be exerted when protecting himself.

However, a more chilling question was placed in front of him—how could Qu Zhu replace a person he had never met before without any flaws?

Although the Huan Si Lou had the means of "changing faces" rather than "disguise," although Bai Tianqu could tell Qu Zhu all the details he knew as much as possible, although Great Si Shan lived in the ancient building and was almost forgotten by people after Zhang Meiqing died... but to play a person was by no means as simple as imagined.

A person was not entirely composed of the appearance in the eyes of others. Often the behavior when alone pointed to the true inner heart. And if one couldn't grasp those things that only he knew, one couldn't perform his performance when facing outsiders.

If death was a cross-section, the performer had to completely overlap with the period before death in order to continue this life backward.

But Qu Zhu was not an invisible man, and he didn't live in the Hidden Sword Pavilion either.

"." Gan Zifeng obviously also felt a chill in the words in front of him, and for a moment, the faces of every peak master of Kongdong flashed through his mind.

"Elder Gan, does Great Si Shan usually live here? Where else would he go?"

"Not necessarily... This is just a place to organize the Sword Treasury." Gan Zifeng looked outside the building, "In fact, behind this mountain, it has already left the five peaks. Further back is the desolate place of Kongdong, dangerous peaks and deep ravines, all of which are where Great Si Shan wanders alone. The Si Shan of past generations often lived in huts."

The two words "lived in huts" suddenly touched Seeing Pei Ye's heartstrings. He turned his head and looked at Gan Zifeng fiercely: "Where?"

Gan Zifeng was slightly stunned: "Each generation is different... This is a place chosen freely by the Si Shan. It was originally to avoid the world and people."

But Seeing Pei Ye looked at the line "Meet at the cliff behind 'Hanging Heaven Curtain'" and couldn't help but think of Zhang Meiqing's notes.

—On that day, the south wind was very strong. Since this hut was exposed to the sky and had little wind, it mostly sat on the south cliff and faced north; and listening to the heavy spring waterfall from afar, although Kongdong had many water waterfalls, there were several that could be reached in a moment's journey from the Law Enforcement Hall... 【Hanging Heaven Curtain】?

From the Law Enforcement Hall to the ancient Scripture Library was already a journey away from people, a small half-stick of incense. Great Si Shan lived in a hut, of course, to continue to go deeper. Seeing Pei Ye rushed out of this building and leaped onto the cliff peak.

The early sun had already risen from the side. He looked north, and the clear morning light covered a hundred miles. In the mist, sure enough, there were countless scattered peaks and ravines. And in the far east, a high and wide waterfall fell high. In this open space, the sound was still faint, and one could imagine how the sound echoed in the ravine.

"... Go north from here, and find a mountain cliff facing north where you can no longer hear the waterfall sound." Seeing Pei Ye said with a tight throat, and was about to lean down and leap.

Gan Zifeng frowned and held his wrist: "Since there are clues, let's go back and mobilize the peak masters."

"... The peak masters have come over, what about Zhang Jingbi?" Seeing Pei Ye looked at the old man, "Elder Gan, I have tried... to fight with this person, I must be urgent and dense... You go to coordinate the manpower, I will go first."

——————

The morning light spread from the horizon. The peaks faded from dark colors, stone gray and leaves green, rain empty and clear.

The tall back of Yuanwu Peak was already in front. Hanging Heaven Curtain was like a large piece of broken white glass under the morning sun. Crossing them, one entered the "Lotus Heart" place in the center of Kongdong, which was the place where swords were drawn now.

The valley floor was high with trees, and the mountain shape was rugged. Two long and fast air currents swept over the treetops, leaving only branches and leaves scattered.

"Didn't expect to trouble Inspector Sui to invite me personally, let me be laughed at." Ji Changyun looked at the mountain peak in the distance with cold and light eyes. That was a place he hadn't approached for nearly ten years.

The mountain formation of Kongdong was already open. For a founder of the sect to enter the mountain with dignity, he actually needed Sui Zaihua's guidance, which could indeed be called "let me be laughed at."

But no matter who looked at it, the old man himself had nothing to laugh at. Twenty years ago, he took the initiative to abdicate and give way when facing the strong competition. Now, after being strongly excluded by his own mountain gate for many years, he still silently served as the pillar of Kongdong, willing to support Kongdong's face when the Cloud Lang descendant arrived.

The records in the Immortal Platform described his temperament as arrogant. Now his person was indeed like an old crane.

Sui Zaihua didn't have any polite words: "I was abrupt. Originally I shouldn't have disturbed you, but the change of events is indeed very urgent. I think even if I didn't come, Master Ji would enter the mountain after knowing the situation."

Ji Changyun nodded: "I really didn't expect the Sword Master to be locked in the mountain—to tell the truth, Tianqu and I have had no communication for ten years, but I handed the position of Li Li Zhangmen to him, actually believing that he could always see the big picture."

Sui Zaihua didn't have any polite words: "But we now believe that he is the mastermind of everything."

"Haven't contacted him yet?" Ji Changyun looked into the distance, his gaze seeming to pierce through the mountain peak in front and land on Sword Belly Mountain, "I prefer to believe that things are somewhat out of his control."

"Precisely because we believe that Li Li Zhangmen Bai is a person who can see things very clearly." Sui Zaihua said somewhat distractedly, looking at the mountain waterfall on the side. The water thunder roared, and they had already passed extremely close, "So we also recognize his ability."

"."

"Hanging Heaven Curtain" was indeed like a white practice hanging in the sky, flying water, thunder roaring, momentum majestic. The two passed under this, and when the thunder was extremely prosperous, the words were also drowned for a moment.

Ji Changyun paused and opened his mouth again: "In matters that Tianqu cares about, he is often extreme—"

Everything was quiet in an instant.

As if countless collisions and surges happened at the same time, the waterfall's momentum soared suddenly. Ji Changyun turned his head subconsciously. This long waterfall like a curtain was cut off for an instant, and the splashing waterfall water hit his face.

Behind it, a huge and ferocious shadow like a snake and python that was stored and popped out, broke through the water curtain and hit directly. At the first moment of the explosion, the distance was less than three feet!

The long sword was drawn instantly. The surprise on Ji Changyun's face condensed into calmness in an instant. The sword light several feet long was like being born from the morning sun. When it just showed its shape, the giant thing that pierced through the waterfall had already been cut in two.

But there were no blood scales, only water flow collapsing and chaotic. After one sword, the speed did not decrease, and it swept to both sides, completing the encirclement in an instant.

At this moment, the formation on the cliff behind the waterfall showed the Xuan Qi full of flowing light, and the heavy blockade suddenly descended on Ji Changyun's body.

【Chiwen Carrying Water】, a high-level Xuan formation passed down by the Great Tang, uses water Xuan to press on the person in the formation. The power depends on the mobilization of the formation master and the scale of the water system.

Now both were obviously above the level. Ji Changyun's long sword was visibly sinking. The next moment, his pupils shrank suddenly, as if he had suddenly reacted. The Xuan Qi of years of accumulation exploded in his body. Amidst the negative blood, the blockade was blown open for an instant, and he turned around and blocked horizontally with his sword.

A swift sword "dinged" and hit the sword body, followed by Sui Zaihua's flat and indifferent eyes.

Ji Changyun narrowed his eyes in disbelief, staring fixedly at him. Sui Zaihua twisted his wrist, and vast sword Qi suddenly grew from the sword. Ji Changyun's blocking sword was suddenly broken.

Sui Zaihua's sword entered the empty gate directly. After being in a high position, this old man obviously rarely drew his sword. Only at this moment did he know that he had never put down the practice of sword path. The cold sharpness of breaking cases with a single sword alone in the past was also revealed.

One sword entered the empty gate directly. Ji Changyun raised his sword to block again, and was broken again. The sword tip forced the throat like a poisonous snake.

In the sudden blockade, Ji Changyun was almost left and right, and a breath could never be lifted. He gritted his teeth and condensed his eyes, and the crane face had turned into an angry eagle.

Sui Zaihua himself was like a cold sword, facing Yueque with Tuanshen. As long as the other party vacated a breath, what awaited him was serious injury and death. But the old man only stacked layers of attacks with extreme calmness. The sword momentum was continuous and never leaked a trace of gaps.

It was hard to imagine two masters fighting with swords in such a thrilling and bloody way, but it did happen. Xuan Qi didn't even have a chance to intervene in such a rhythm. Sui Zaihua forced this breath to death, and the situation tilted more and more. He was actually going to kill a Crane List Master with the Tuanshen realm here.

Empty words about this matter must be believed by no one, but life only had one life. Just like Zhang Jingbi being trapped and killed at the bottom of the lake, the distance between life and death was just a wall-breaking magic tool that was not too expensive.

Sui Zaihua forced his life with every move. The two figures had been pressed into the long waterfall. Under the flying beads, their clothes and hair were all wet, only the sword light never lagged behind at all. 【Chiwen Carrying Water】 circled around Ji Changyun, and with the power of the water waterfall, the pressure became thicker and thicker. The next moment, blood light suddenly appeared, and Sui Zaihua pierced a blood flower on Ji Changyun's shoulder for the first time.

But it was at this time that the crane-spotted old man's face suddenly changed from angry to quiet.

The water waterfall flew past his body. He looked at the person in front of him coldly: "In terms of sword technique, Sui Inspector is enough to be proud."

Sui Zaihua raised his eyes when he heard this, and his body suddenly tightened.

Ji Changyun raised his hand and pressed on the cliff wall beside him, looking at him indifferently. The whole person was like a dry fish entering the water, inhaling a full fresh breath.

This is Yuanwu Peak, and this sword is called "Yuanwu Cliff Sword."

The old man had condensed the swords of all peaks for decades, and solidified the meaning of every sword technique in his heart.

Now he had no time to mobilize from his heart, but this high cliff was beside him.

【Sword Sea Chapter】 · Yuanwu.

Sui Zaihua's whole body suddenly stiffened.

The continuous sword momentum broke instantly. The mountain peak in front tilted toward him, and his heart aperture was suddenly suppressed and suffocated.

Of course, it was only for a moment, but this moment of stagnation was enough to make him a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Ji Changyun looked at Sui Zaihua with cold eyes, his sword suddenly stagnated, and the space around him seemed to freeze.

"Spirit Child Observes the World" · Covering the Mirror—

The old man shook his wrist lightly, and the fragile mirror shattered. The world's top 【Yueque】 took back the authority he should have at this moment. He pierced a sword into Sui Zaihua's throat.

Blood seemed to splash in an instant, but the next moment there was only water splashing.

Sui Zaihua broke out of the 【Sword Sea Chapter】, looking at him with injured and tired eyes: "Master Ji could clearly capture me, why kill me?"

The water flow of 【Chiwen Carrying Water】 suddenly returned to his body from around Ji Changyun. The next moment, Sui Zaihua's body shattered and collapsed like a shadow with the sword pierced by Ji Changyun. However, there were no flesh and blood fragments, only clean and bright water falling.

"Spirit Child Observes the World" · 【Who is the Mirror Shadow】.

The person disappeared. Everything was as if it hadn't happened. Ji Changyun slowly retracted his sword and looked at the water waterfall falling in front of him quietly.
