Chapter 193 The Disobedient Hengyue Sword
But...the more calm you feel one moment, the more panicked you will be the next.
"Run, run! How many times have I told you to run! Don't stay where you are, or you will be buried!"
While a gap was being created in the firewall, Zhou Ling heard the chattering of Erniu in his mind.
Strange, it said it had called many times, but I just heard its voice, and I had called them to gather at the gap in my mind before. If they heard it, they would definitely come, unless they didn't hear it...
Could it be that... this magical firewall can actually block the communication between them?
But now was not the time to discuss these things. Before the chirping sounds in Erniu's mind had stopped, the bird had already arrived, spread its wings, dived towards the gap, and rushed into the encirclement of the fire wall, grabbing the mother and daughter one by one with its claws.
The insects that emerged from the grass had excellent jumping abilities. When they saw the mother and daughter being caught high into the air, many of them even wanted to jump up and pounce on Zhou Ling's face.
"I'll go to you!"
His shoulders were restrained by claws and he couldn't move, so Zhou Ling kicked the bugs one by one, leaving afterimages with his legs in the air, kicking away all the bugs that wanted to attack his face.
Zhou Li, who was caught in the other claw, wanted to help, but found that he could not break free, so he used telekinesis to attack and blocked many insects that were flying towards his daughter.
"Erniu, fly higher!"
Although the current height is not short, it is not high either, which causes the bugs that pop out of the ground to still want to jump towards her. She is almost exhausted from kicking like this, and kicking all the time is not a solution, so she shouts at Erniu above.
"Do you think I don't want to!"
The sound of Erniu gritting his teeth rang in his mind.
"There are strong winds in the sky here. You have no spiritual power now. If I fly high, I will be fine, but you will be minced into meat paste!"
This height is already the limit of what he can control. Even if it is a little higher, the mother and daughter held in his claws will be troubled by the strong wind.
Although the height limit has been reached, it can still escape the attacks of most insects. After all, if those insects want to jump so high, they need the help of their companions, which is very time-consuming and they may not be able to jump up.
"Then why do they only bite me?" Zhou Ling roared, puzzled, with a hint of aggrieved in his voice.
"Because you have Heng Yue on you!"
Here comes the strangest thing. As a new member of their big family, Erniu doesn't know many things.
For example, her and her mother’s origins, the sects behind them, and the stories that happened to them before.
Regarding Hengyue, it is a secret among secrets. Even Daniu knows very little about it, so it is even more impossible that Daniu told Erniu.
"you……"
She really wanted to ask, how do you know Hengyue?
But she couldn't ask any more questions after she had just started.
Master said that the grade of Hengyue Sword had long surpassed this world, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a divine weapon. Although it recognized her as its master, the sword itself had a sword spirit. Although the sword spirit had almost dissipated with Hengyue's death, the consciousness existed and it was very likely that it would not obey her orders at some point in the future. Zhou Ling still remembered that when Master said these words, he often showed an expression of toothache.
Finally, she was advised to cultivate a good relationship with the sword spirit. In her spare time, she could take Hengyue out and chat with it and get more familiar with it. Maybe if it disobeys in the future, she would be able to appeal to its emotions and reason with it.
At first, she was indeed uneasy and frightened about what her master said.
But later, with the in-depth practice of Hengyue Sword Technique, the Hengyue Sword in Zhou Ling's hand gradually no longer had a status that could surpass its master in her heart, but she completely regarded it as a weapon.
At this moment, the weapon was restless in her sea of consciousness and wanted to rush out.
There had never been an experience of Hengyue Sword being disobedient before, but now, Zhou Ling seemed to know what his master was worried about.
A sword spirit with self-awareness is indeed difficult to control. Once her will goes against the will of her master, she will become disobedient.
but……
"Fuck you! If you dare to move again, I will break you and melt you again!"
This sword was Zhou Ling's natal magic weapon that was bound to his soul when he first started practicing. For a long time, he had been keeping it in his sea of consciousness to nurture it.
A cultivator's sea of consciousness is one of his most important and weakest parts.
A cultivator's natal magic weapon, spiritual weapon, or divine weapon, no matter what grade it is, as long as it is stored in the sea of consciousness, it must be something that he is extremely trustworthy and will not be easily destroyed.
But this sword, for some unknown reason, was actually rushing left and right inside, trying to get out. Although the force of the collision was not very strong, it made Zhou Ling's head buzz. It was really painful, the kind of pain that came from the soul!
He was so angry that he naturally uttered threatening words.
It wasn't her who chose Hengyue Sword, but Hengyue Sword that chose her! Since it recognized her as its master, it should listen to her. Dare to hit her sea of consciousness, this broken sword is just asking for trouble!
As soon as the threatening words were spoken, the Hengyue Sword in the sea of consciousness finally calmed down a little, but it did not completely stop.
Although it was no longer flying around, it was still suspended in the air. The entire sword seemed to be trembling with excitement, and the blade was buzzing.
Zhou Ling sighed and suddenly became curious. They could still deal with these bugs, which were not very dangerous, but what was the purpose of this sword that was so urgent to come out?
Could it be that it sensed that its owner was in danger and wanted to rush out to kill the insects for her?
Thinking in this way, she didn't feel so angry about it bumping around in her sea of consciousness and hurting her.
Anyway, this is the area below the quagmire, and there is no one else here except them. If it wants to come out, let it come out and see what it wants to do.
Zhou Ling was looking forward to the first thing that the Hengyue Sword would do after it flew out, which was for the sword spirit to control the sword body and deal with the big insects that were pouncing on her in the air.
Can……
If the Hengyue Sword had not suddenly rushed out and its tail had not been visible the moment it was released, Zhou Ling felt that the smile on her face should have lasted a little longer.
"You! Daddy!"
This had never happened before, and Zhou Ling was almost overcome by the sword!
"Erniu! Chase!"
She just didn't believe it. Erniu was a creature with wings after all, and his body was quite large at this moment. With his wings spread, he had every advantage. How could he not catch up with a sword?
