Chapter 561: Golden Crow Dharma Image, the Universe in the Palm of Your Hand
Above the void, Li Daoxuan slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, the "Book of Exorcism" in his mind began to shine, and lines of small golden characters emerged, indicating that the high priest was indeed dead.
"In September of the seventh year of Zhenguan, Yu Zhanxiang killed the Turkic high priest (Kuafu's true spirit) and was rewarded - [Golden Crow Dharma Image]!"
"Golden Crow Dharma Image, above the Tang Valley there is Fusang, with three golden feathers, and ten suns patrolling the sky. It is the divine bird of heaven and earth, and spits out the true fire of the sun, which can burn all things, and the flames illuminate the nine heavens!"
"In ancient times, Kuafu chased the sun across thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, trying to catch a golden crow but failed. On his deathbed, he suddenly realized a magical power, which is called the Golden Crow Dharma."
Seeing the words in the heavenly book, Li Daoxuan was not surprised by the magical power reward of Jinwu Dharma Image, but his eyes stayed on the four words "Kuafu True Spirit".
He had previously thought that the high priest was somewhat like the legendary Kuafu, holding a peach staff, with a tiger skin wrapped around his waist, and an astonishing body, but the combat power displayed by the other party made him deny this idea.
After all, Kuafu was a great wizard in ancient times and shouldn’t be so weak.
Although the high priest's strength is already at the top of the Yang God, and can even be compared with human immortals, and can be said to be an existence standing at the top of the world, there is still a big gap compared with the mythical Kuafu.
Li Daoxuan looked at the four words "Kuafu's True Spirit" and combined them with the images he had seen from his memory before, and an astonishing guess gradually emerged in his mind.
If this guess is true, then he should know who the devil in the bronze coffin is.
Without being in a hurry to collect the reward, Li Daoxuan stepped on the auspicious cloud and landed gracefully. Although he had just killed a powerful man who was no weaker than the Locust God, he was calm and composed, and there was not a trace of dust on his Green Lotus Robe.
It was as if he had just taken a nap and after waking up he casually brushed away a fallen leaf.
He didn't say anything, and the Three Realms Gourd on his waist automatically flew out healing pills, which went into the mouths of Wang Bo and others, helping them recover from their injuries.
"Meet the Imperial Master!!!"
Everyone bowed and saluted, their eyes full of admiration, thinking that the state teacher's skills must have improved again, and he killed the high priest with a flick of his hand!
There was only one person who stood tall and slender. He did not bow with the others. His bright eyes looked straight at Li Daoxuan, appearing very special.
Li Daoxuan looked at her, and their eyes met in the air.
Dianmu was secretly anxious, so she quietly pulled Taiwei's sleeve and told her to bow quickly so as not to be impolite and offend the imperial teacher.
But Taiwei didn't move.
Dian Mu thought of the other party's life-saving grace, gritted her teeth, and said: "National Master, she just returned from overseas and is not familiar with many things. Please consider that she saved me and don't blame her--"
However, before she could say anything, she heard the voice of the national teacher, with a hint of emotion and smile.
"Junior sister, long time no see."
Tai Wei smiled, and the sword light rippled in her bright eyes.
"Brother, I'm back."
The two looked at each other, and although there were no words exchanged, they did not feel strange or familiar. After six years of separation, the past events were still vivid in their minds.
Dianmu looked at Taiwei, then at the National Master, and the expression under the mask suddenly became very strange.
Li Daoxuan smiled and said, "Let me introduce you to everyone. This female sword fairy is called Liu Bihen, and her Taoist name is Taiwei. She is my junior sister and also the true disciple of my master's wife. We once broke into the Yellow Spring Realm together and fought side by side."
Tai Wei also recalled those years and said with a smile: "If it weren't for my senior brother's care at that time, I would have died there long ago."
After a pause, she stared at Li Daoxuan and said with emotion: "Back then I felt that Senior Brother was definitely not an ordinary person and would soar to the sky in the future. I just didn't expect that this day would come so soon."
In just six years, she thought she had encountered many adventures overseas, not only had she cultivated to the Yang God Realm, but also comprehended the "Taishang Sword Sutra" and honed her own sword skills. This was already legendary enough, but she never thought that her senior brother had made even greater progress than her.
In the battle just now, the senior brother faced a giant that even she found difficult to deal with. He used a series of magical powers, including the Five Elements Escape, Moving Stars and Changing Constellations, Calling the Wind and Rain, Frost and Ice, Zi Wei Dou Shu, and the Golden Light of Subduing Demons, to completely crush the so-called high priest.
It can be said that he can make clouds with a flip of his hand and rain with a flip of his hand. His magical powers are so numerous that it is dazzling.
Moreover, seeing how calm and composed my senior brother was, I guess he didn't use his full strength. His strength is truly unfathomable.
Li Daoxuan shook his head and smiled, then teased: "How come after a few years of wandering around, even my most upright junior sister has learned to flatter ?"
Tai Wei smiled and said, "I am just telling the truth. No matter it was then or now, in my heart, Senior Brother will always be the most amazing and brilliant."
Back then, everyone in Longhu Mountain admired the senior brother, and she was no exception.
"You must miss your master's wife very much after coming back this time. Do you want to go back to Longhu Mountain first?"
Li Daoxuan asked.
Unexpectedly, Tai Wei shook her head and said frankly and sincerely: "I came back this time mainly because I missed my senior brother."
The smile on Li Daoxuan's face suddenly froze.
The atmosphere of the reunion between old friends suddenly changed, and a hint of ambiguity emerged.
Wang Bo and others lowered their heads and did not dare to interrupt, but the excitement in their eyes revealed their mood at the moment, as if they had eaten some big melon, and their hearts were pounding.
It’s amazing, it turns out that the national teacher’s old lover has returned.
The Goddess of Lightning was disheveled in the wind. Along the way, the good sister she recognized was not only the junior sister of the Imperial Master, but also had that kind of relationship with the Imperial Master...?
I felt a little sad, but more of it was embarrassment.
Because she recalled her previous vows, saying that when she met the Imperial Master, she would definitely introduce Tai Wei to him and ask him to teach her the way of the sword...
At this moment, the memories surged up in her mind, so vivid that her face felt hot and her toes kept digging into her shoes.
So embarrassing!!!
Li Daoxuan coughed quickly and said, "Junior sister, that... I..."
"Brother , I don't regret the choice I made back then. This time I came back mainly to learn from you and see who was better between the two of us."
In those days, the two of them often practiced swordplay and discussed philosophy. Li Daoxuan believed that to cultivate one's mind, one must study all the laws of nature, cultivate a hundred classics in one's furnace, and absorb a hundred rivers in one's heart, and finally develop magical powers that are unique to one's own.
Tai Wei, on the other hand, believes that one must be single-minded in spiritual practice, and that those who are extremely passionate are extremely skilled in swordsmanship, and should strive to break all laws with one sword, thus becoming the supreme swordsman.
The two had a heated debate on this issue, but in the end, neither could convince the other.
Putting aside the fact that they are the reincarnated senior sister of a certain big boss, the two of them are the two most outstanding disciples among the nine generations of Longhu Mountain. Their ideas conflict with each other, which is quite similar to the difference between the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer.
Later, Taiwei went down the mountain to pursue his own sword path.
"Brother, I can't wait to duel swords with you."
Tai Wei did not hide her fighting spirit. She looked at her senior brother as if she was looking at a dazzling sword or a flawless jade disk.
Just now, senior brother displayed so many magical powers, but he didn’t use the sword.
But she could feel that her senior brother had not given up on the sword. There was an earth-shaking sword intent hidden in his body. Once it was unsheathed, it would be the most beautiful scenery in the world.
"The dragon and tiger swords in the box, let's sing the phoenix's song."
Li Daoxuan raised his hand, and a small sword box floated three inches in the palm of his hand. Before it was opened, the vast sword intent had already dissipated like waves in a river or ripples in the blue sea.
Taiwei's phoenix eyes lit up, and her slender jade-like hand pressed on the hilt of the Lilong sword.
She had waited too long for this moment.
Since becoming invincible overseas, she has fought across thousands of miles, trying to defeat them but to no avail. Those so-called peerless swordsmen often could not even take three of her swords.
Perhaps that is why she missed her brother so much.
Only her senior brother's sword could make her feel so pressured and excited.
The people around looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering why a fight suddenly broke out?
They couldn't understand Taiwei's obsession with the sword, but Li Daoxuan understood that although he was not specialized in the sword, he was definitely one of the best sword practitioners in the world.
Only a swordsman can understand a swordsman.
My junior sister is such a person. Whether she travels around the countries or stays alone in the mountains, it is all for the purpose of forging swords. Even if she has love in her heart, she will forge it into a sword of wisdom to cut off her karma and troubles.
The two men's eyes met, but they were no longer reminiscing about the past, but rather the surging sword intent and hidden edge.
But just when the momentum of the two was about to reach its peak, they both chose to put away their sword intent, frowned slightly, and looked into the distance.
roar!!!
The earth cracked open, and a giant nine-headed snake emerged from the ground. Its body was a hundred feet tall, and its hissing sounded like the howling of thousands of ghosts, which was terrifying.
On the other side, a headless giant ten feet tall walked over, holding a shield in one hand and an axe in the other, with his breasts as eyes and his belly button as a mouth, revealing a high fighting spirit.
Although his body was far smaller than Xiangliu's, there was a strange glow flowing around him, as if he had some kind of magic, which made Lu Chunliang, who had a lower level of cultivation, change his expression and show signs of struggle.
After a moment, he roared in a low voice: "Kill! Kill! Kill——"
With a loud bang, Lu Chunliang was knocked flying by a punch and embedded deeply into the wall.
Lou Ling moved his wrist and said calmly, "Wake up."
…
Lu Chunliang was like this. After seeing the giant like Xingtian, those untrained Tang soldiers felt as if a volcano was burning in their hearts. The will to fight gushed out and their eyes turned bloodshot.
clang!
They drew the swords from their waists and wanted to fight against their former comrades.
Fortunately, at this moment a sword sounded, clear and loud, like the cry of a phoenix or the ringing of a jade bell, which restored everyone's clarity of mind.
"Brother, good sword intention."
Tai Wei's eyes lit up as she looked at Li Daoxuan's slender jade-like hands and the snow-white sword in his hand. The sword body was as clear as jade, radiating divine light, as bright as the moon.
It’s the White Dragon Sword!
Just now, Li Daoxuan drew out the White Dragon Sword, flicked his fingers on the sword, and broke the evil intent with the sound of the sword, saving thousands of Tang soldiers in the blink of an eye.
However, just as the sword's sound was echoing, a thunderous sound rang out, shaking the sky.
Boom!!!
Thunderclouds rolled in the area for hundreds of miles, and countless thunderbolts emerged, transforming into a terrifying and vast lake of lightning. A figure in the lake fell like a meteorite.
The dazzling lightning was almost impossible to look directly at. Even from a great distance, one could still feel the violent force filled with a destructive aura, accompanied by the ear-piercing thunder.
It was a strange beast with a very strange appearance, similar to an ox, but without horns, with green hair, one foot, a roar like thunder, and its body glowing with light like the sun and the moon.
Li Daoxuan looked at the strange beast, his eyes slightly brightening.
This is the mythical beast recorded in "Classic of Mountains and Seas", Kuiniu!
This beast is the darling of thunder, born to control all thunders. It is a divine beast transformed from the origin of thunder. When it walks, there is wind and thunder all over the sky following it. It is extremely strong and has a very hot temper.
It is said that in the beginning of ancient times, there were no thunder disasters between heaven and earth, and all the laws of thunder were contained in Kui Niu alone. Later, when the Heavenly Court appeared, the duties of the thunder god were gradually transferred.
In the past, Emperor Huangdi and Chiyou had a decisive battle in Zhuolu. Emperor Huangdi killed Kuiniu, used its bones as a hammer and its skin as a drum. When they were struck, the sound was heard thousands of miles away, shocking people's hearts and greatly undermined the momentum of Chiyou's tribe.
With the help of Yinglong, Nüba and other gods, Chiyou was finally defeated.
Of course, Li Daoxuan knew very well that this was not the Kuiniu from ancient times, but like the high priest, it had obtained a trace of the Kuiniu's true spirit under the magical power of the demon in the ancient bronze coffin.
But even so, this beast is extremely precious to Li Daoxuan.
Because he remembered his magical power of thunder, which he had not yet fully comprehended, and the human immortal body which he still needed to cultivate.
Perhaps this Kuiniu is his opportunity.
"Junior sister, why don't we try a different method?"
"What is the comparison?"
Li Daoxuan held the White Dragon Sword in his hand and said with a smile, "Xiangliu, Xingtian and Kuiniu are also rare opponents. Let's see who wins first?"
Tai Wei frowned and said, "But there are three enemies, how do we divide them?"
Each of these three giant beasts made her feel pressured, and she was not sure she could deal with two of them at the same time.
Li Daoxuan smiled slightly and said, "It's very simple. I'll take one first."
Take away?
Taiwei was a little confused and didn't know how her senior brother was going to take it away.
The next moment, Li Daoxuan's eyes became extremely deep, as if the sun, moon and stars were flowing in them. His green robe fluttered in the wind, and his inky long hair danced gently.
Boom!
Huge meteorites fell from the sky, and the friction between their surfaces and the air produced hot sparks. From a distance, it looked like a meteor shower from outer space.
The direction of the fall was exactly Kuiniu.
Moo!
The Kuiniu's voice was like wind and thunder, and a violent look flashed in its eyes. Thunder light was shining brightly around it, and bolts of lightning fell from the sky, turning meteorites into powder.
Boom!
It leaped high on one foot, and its entire body seemed to turn into a ray of divine light, smashing the meteorites into pieces. The light of the sun and the moon flowed on its green hair, dazzling.
It looked at Li Daoxuan with a hint of disdain in its eyes. Among the three beasts, it was the fastest, and immediately rushed towards Li Daoxuan with wind and thunder all over the sky.
However, it soon discovered something was wrong.
The closer it got to Li Daoxuan, the smaller its body became, until it even looked like a stone or a speck of dust. In contrast, the Taoist priest in green robe became taller and taller, like a god.
In the end, it could no longer see Li Daoxuan. There was only a vast expanse of white between heaven and earth, as if surrounded by layers of clouds and mist. No matter how fast it ran, it could never escape from this world.
Taiwei looked at the Kuiniu that was running and jumping in her senior brother's arms, and her mouth opened slightly.
