"Do you remember when you first met me when you were six years old? I gave you a small wooden sword, and you were so excited that you couldn't let it go.
At that time, there was no one to teach you, but you learned it by yourself and wielded the wooden sword quite gracefully.
Your fate with the sword has long been predestined. You chose the sword, and the sword also chose you.
And I just gave it a push.”
Jinyun placed his palm on Jingliu's head, gently kneading her soft hair, and after a pause, he continued:
"Since you have chosen the sword, you must follow this path and make it a sharp blade for defense and conquest."
"Jingliu, Master asks you, what do you think is the purpose of learning sword?"
"..."
Jingliu stared blankly at Jinyun's cheek.
In the past, she would have said something passionate and indignant like taking off the title of Sword Master, making great achievements, and bringing peace to the world.
But now, she has the courage to face her inner self.
She gritted her teeth and confessed, “I thought I learned swordsmanship for fame, friendship, and loyalty, but in the end, I just want to try my best to catch up with Master and repay your kindness in teaching me.
I hope that Jingliu can be strong enough to match you, but there is really no way Jingliu can catch up with this gap...
So, I gave up, and only thought that as long as I could stay with Master, as long as I had Master, it would be fine. If you die one day, Jingliu will go with you......"
"..."
It is true.
The "shackles" of Mirror Flow.
Jinyun glanced at the turn limit on the UI interface. The number 60/60 was so eye-catching.
"I also want to stay with you forever, Jingliu, but this is not possible."
"...Master? Why do you say that?"
"Jingliu, I have something to teach you today."
Jinyun released Jingliu's embrace, stood up, and stroked the light sword with his fingers:
"Anyone who practices swordsmanship will inevitably be trapped by the seven emotions and six desires. The reputation, friendship, and loyalty you mentioned are all things that every swordsman must go through."
"But a sword is always a sword, a sharp weapon that cuts off life and death."
"It is so pure that it cannot be eroded by anything outside."
"Once you embark on this journey, you can never turn back."
"The end of the road is the horizon, the end of words is the edge of the sword. Although there are thousands of reasons to swing the sword, there is no difference between high and low, nor between strong and weak. The only one who decides whether the sword is good or bad is the one who uses the sword."
"When you have walked the path of anger and fire, the path of greed and sword, the path of ignorance and blood, and have cut through all obstacles, you will understand why you wield the sword."
Jinyun looked up and saw the Buli people's warships and weapon beasts that covered the sky like a swarm of insects, just like dark clouds blocking the sky, obscuring everything.
He took a deep breath and placed his hand on the hilt of the sword. The sword was already clanging even before it was unsheathed:
"Master will give you three swords today."
"Whether swordsmanship is useful or useless, you will understand it after these three swords."
Jing Liu stopped talking. She stared blankly at Jin Yun. The Bu Liren warships in the sky roared and fired thousands of artillery fire, but the other side was not moved at all.
Half of the Spring Water Sword was placed on the ground, reflecting the appearance of the master and his disciple.
The sword was two feet and one inch long, but only a broken blade remained, and it was hard to see the sparkling beauty it once was.
Chapter 58 The Demon Star Has Arrived (5/5)
[As long as the master is there, Jingliu will not be afraid. 】
Such a naive thought, even now, still lingers in Jingliu's mind.
If you are weak, you will not seek to be strong; if you are feeble, you will forever fall into the dust and mud...
Is this right?
Jingliu clenched his fists, his eyes fixed on the artillery fire pouring down from the sky above his head.
The Shen Ce Mansion has the Heaven Prison Formation, which may be able to block this round of attack.
But Jingliu didn't dare to think about how much would be left in other places after this round of artillery fire.
At this moment, she felt deeply weak and incompetent, and had to place all her hopes on Jinyun.
Master...
What are the limits of swordsmanship?
Jinyun is well aware of Jingliu's doubts, therefore, these last three swords will be his answer to the future sword master Wuhen Feiguang.
He drew his sword from its sheath, and the simple sharp sword began to ring at this moment, with the sword energy surging.
Then, he raised the sword and slashed forward without any fancy moves!
"boom!!"
The sword energy is like a rainbow, covering the sky and the sun!
The entire Xianzhou Cangcheng city shook violently at this moment!
All the artillery fire fired by Bu Liren was completely wiped out by this sword, just like a hot fireball was poured with a basin of cold water, erupting with a large amount of thick smoke-like fog.
This sword was extended across the sky and the earth, cutting off all the artillery fire from Bu Liren and the red clouds hanging in the sky. The fog destroyed by the artillery fire rolled over the sky of Cangcheng like a man-made sea of clouds.
"Next, it's the second sword."
Jinyun's voice was as calm as ever, even a little too calm. Such sharp words coming out of his mouth sounded as if he was just asking an insignificant question like "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
But his sword was completely contrary to his words.
As the last word fell, the second sword arrived as expected.
And this sword made Jingliu dumbfounded.
The sword energy condensed into a line.
This line is as thin as a gossamer and barely perceptible, like the silk spun by a spring silkworm, hanging between heaven and earth.
However, the next second!
Under the Milky Way and above the sky, the sea of clouds that covered the sun was suddenly rolling and surging like boiling water!
The sword energy penetrated into Bu Liren's fleet formation, and it suddenly surged like a storm, rolling up thousands of turbulent waves!
No matter whether it was the huge beast warship as big as a mountain, or the insignificant human formation as weak as mosquitoes and flies, they were all completely dissipated by this sword, and both their souls and bodies were destroyed!
There is only the sky above, no mountains are equal to it. Looking up, the red sun is near; looking back, the white clouds are low.
This sword destroyed everything in all directions and made the four seas flat!
Jing Liu stared blankly at the scene in front of him, his mouth slightly open and unable to close.
Since arriving from Jinyun, he has only used three swords.
With the first sword, he beheaded dozens of Longbos and destroyed hundreds of thousands of Buli soldiers.
The second sword covered the sky and sea, shattered the sparks, and rendered the enemy's artillery useless.
And this third sword directly destroyed Bu Liren's endless army that was like a swarm of locusts!
Looking around, among the millions of human fleets and beasts, only one in ten survived under this sword.
The mistresses of the three-headed controller beasts were all killed by this sword.
Without the control of the mistress, the Buli people's phalanx collapsed like dominoes, and a large number of weapon beasts screamed and lost control, crashing into the surrounding Buli people's warships.
In an instant, the Bu Li army, which was so mighty and powerful like the might of heaven a second ago, instantly fell into a state of hell, and they threw away their weapons and armor and fled in panic.
God's help...
This is like divine help...
At this moment, Jingliu finally understood how terrifying it was when the Emperor Bow Siming shot an arrow through the nebula as described in the book.
The Buli army came out in full force to completely destroy Cangcheng, but Jinyun defeated them with just one sword, forcing them to flee in disarray.
Could it be that Master is also a messenger of some god...
Jinyun wiped the sword lightly but did not sheath it.
He said to Jing Liu gently: "Little girl, don't just stand there, there are still many things to do."
"Master..."
"You are a Cloud Cavalry Guard. The general and deputy generals are not here. The overall situation of the Cloud Cavalry Army requires you to step up."
".......yes!"
Jing Liu wiped away the tears of excitement and hurried back to the Shen Ce Palace. He issued an order to summon all the strategists and scouts who were still around the Shen Ce Palace.
Although there were heavy casualties in this battle, Cangcheng won in the end, thanks to the master.
Now we just have to wait for the general's triumphant return before we can regroup.
There are also two immortal boats, Luofu and Yaoqing, on their way.
Once the three routes converge, they will be able to launch a counterattack against the Buli people.
With the master around, it would not be impossible to completely wipe out their lair.
Jing Liu thought so, but she never expected that the rainbow she thought she would see after the clouds cleared turned into bad news:
"...Although we, the Cloud Riders, fought desperately and with all our might, the abundant evil creatures swarmed like locusts and could not be killed. Moreover, disasters suddenly blessed us, and whenever we killed them, they would revive again.
The Yunqi Army had no other choice but to fight fiercely here. At the critical moment, the general ordered the "Shenwei" ship to ram the enemy and exploded with his own body. Finally, he was able to force back the Fengrao Order's "Shuhu", and bought a moment of respite for Cangcheng. "
Just a few lines of text, but every word is as vivid as blood, telling the last moment of General Cangcheng.
Since then, the Cangcheng Yunqi has been leaderless.
Jing Liu put down the jade sign and was silent for a while before he slowly spoke:
"General, you fought to the death and shed your last drop of blood for the people of Xianzhou. You have lived up to our oath as Cloud Riders. You don't need to blame yourself."
"At least we finally got through this difficult time together..."
Before he could finish his words, Jingliu felt dizzy.
It was as if some evil spirit was whispering in her ear, trying to detonate the evil root in her body, causing her to lose all humanity and reason.
Outside the Shen Ce Palace, there was suddenly a loud noise and screams.
Moreover, a ray of red light like a blood moon poured down, illuminating the thousands of rivers.
"What, what's going on?"
"Outside, look up at the sky!"
"That is, what..."
Jing Liu's heart was greatly moved, and he ran out of the Shen Ce Mansion in two or three steps. He looked up and was immediately horrified.
I saw an extremely strange star that shattered the sky, evaporated the sea of clouds, and pressed down towards Cangcheng with an attitude of obliterating the universe.
In the eternal and deep space, its huge body was covered with a strange blood light, and its entire body was brown-red like a rusty copper ball.
It rushed towards Cangcheng lifelessly, and everything along the way was annihilated into dust in the storm it brought down.
The mountains on the surface of the planet are like activated blood vessels, beating vigorously and actively. The cracked surface spreads for thousands of kilometers like vines, revealing the magma beneath the surface that is like blood and the star core that beats like a heart.
It is wailing and singing. The burning mountains are boiling like blood and the cracked earth is thirsty like a wolf.
