Chapter 76: Tree of Luck VS Son of Luck

…

In order to prevent accidents, Wang Anye carefully understood the sword intention again.

After a while, he was finally convinced.

That’s right! That's the taste.

Growing up, he had seen the scene of his great-grandmother wielding her sword so many times, and he was so familiar with it.

Although Grandma's sword intention was not strong enough compared to the sword intention left behind by this suspected true immortal, the lingering familiarity made him extremely confident.

Can't be wrong.

The sword intention is a reflection of the monk's soul, reflecting his own perception. Therefore, everyone's sword intention is unique, and the sword intention will also have its own unique imprint.

Even if the sword intention itself will gradually change as the experience becomes richer and the understanding of the way of the sword deepens, the unique imprint will not change.

However, not everyone has such a keen and delicate perception and can clearly distinguish it.

Wang Anye had long suspected that his great-grandmother might be the reincarnation of a true immortal, but there was no proof.

However, judging from the unique charm displayed by this sword mark, it may be inseparable from the grandmother's previous life.

That's all, it's useless to think too much at this time, it's better to get the Sword Formation Double Jue Book first.

Wang Anye calmed down and stopped thinking about the relationship between the sword intention and his great-grandmother. Instead, he carefully understood the meaning contained in the sword intention.

Slowly, he seemed to feel something that he had not had time to realize before from the terrifying sword intent that was extremely powerful and seemed to destroy everything.

An ethereal meaning as grand as the bright moon in the sky gradually appeared in front of him.

It was something that was far more remote and ethereal than the desire to win or lose, the desire to become stronger, or the sword itself. It was indescribable and indescribable, but it carried an indescribable tenderness.

Dimly, he seemed to see a vague back figure.

The figure had a sword hanging from his waist and stood on a suspended boulder, with nothing to rely on or anything to rely on.

She looked slender and frail, as if she could fall over when blown by the wind, but she was as tough as the sword at her waist, as if nothing in the world could crush or break her.

She was the only one in the vast void.

In front of her was a vast void, but behind her was an abyss.

The road has come to an end, she can't retreat, but the road ahead is unknown.

Ordinary people would always hesitate in this situation, but she seemed to not know what fear was, and still took her steps towards the void unswervingly.

One step, one step, and another.

A road just appeared under her feet.

Faintly, there seemed to be countless figures staggering along the road she had taken. Step by step, the road that was originally looming and seemed to be obscured by weeds at any time became wider and more stable. , and finally become a prosperous road.

An indescribable feeling surged into Wang Anye's heart.

Vaguely, he seemed to understand what that unspeakable thing was.

It's responsibility.

In this way, although the sword intention that Ji Qianqian realized was not strong, the general direction was actually in the right direction. It was just that what she realized was to break through thorns and thorns to carve out a path of cultivation for herself. However, this sword intention carried a lot of burdens. Yes, but the whole world.

It is precisely this weight of countless people that has made this sword so powerful and tenacious, invincible and unstoppable.

He remembered that his great-grandfather once said that the cultivation methods that humans have today are actually the crystallization of the wisdom of countless ancestors.

In particular, the true Dharma, the treasured scriptures, and the Immortal Sutras have condensed the efforts of countless ancestors.

As the saying goes, "Forefathers plant trees, and future generations enjoy the shade." Without the tireless efforts of generations of ancestors, mankind would not be as powerful as it is now.

Isn't this what this sword intention shows?

Use your body as a sword to open the way for all people in the world and expand the future.

Could this state be what my great-grandfather once said: "Establish a heart for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, carry on the unique knowledge of the saints, and create peace for all generations"?

Vaguely, Wang Anye felt as if he had touched something, but he didn't seem to fully understand it.

But he was no longer confused.

The sword is powerful because of the weight of life. It is not for oneself, but for others.

He doesn't have such lofty ambitions, and he can't imagine what it feels like to carry the world on his back. So, he will use his sword to carve out a future for his family.

Just like great grandfather and the others once did.

"boom!"

An extremely powerful sword intent burst out from his body and shot straight into the sky.

The sword intent was thick and majestic, as if it contained some indescribable power, indestructible and unbreakable.

Suddenly.

The sword intent that enveloped the sword tomb seemed to feel something, and suddenly surged. Even the sword intent imprinted on the sword monument seemed to be touched, and the entire sword monument trembled faintly.

Immediately afterwards, even the ancient swords in the sword tomb seemed to be awakened and began to tremble violently.

Pieces of rust were shaken off from the sword, revealing the sword's shimmering cold light.

At the same time, strands of sword intent rose from their bodies, as if responding to Wang Anye's sword intent, echoing his sword intent from a distance. From a distance, it seemed as if they were worshiping their king.

"How is it possible? Wanjian surrendered?"

Wei Yuanqing and Yu Tai'an both changed their expressions and looked at this scene in disbelief.

Of course, "thousands of swords fell down" is just a fake word, and there are only a hundred swords inserted in the sword tomb.

But this kind of vision is extraordinary. Only when the sword cultivator realizes that the sword intention is extremely high-end and extremely powerful, can there be a scene where the masterless swords around him worship him.

"Hahaha~" Sword Girl almost jumped up in excitement, her pretty little face flushed with excitement, "Ten Thousand Swords Guifu, what a Ten Thousand Swords Guifu! After so many years, there is still only one Ancestor Jianming’s sword intent has reached this level before.”

"Is it possible that we actually picked up a treasure?" Jin Ji's always lazy eyes also showed a glint of surprise, "As long as he has the same talent in the formation, no, as long as he is in the formation Don’t be too weak in the talent level of Fa Dao, we might have the possibility to go further.”

From the formation book at the beginning to the sword formation book later, they are constantly learning and growing in the hands of successive generations of successors.

However, except for the ancestor Chen Jianming, there are no outstanding people in the past generations of successors, so their growth rate is as slow as a snail.

So far, it is far from reaching the threshold for promotion to the middle-grade manual.

There is no way, the derivation of the book is so troublesome. Those heirs with relatively mediocre talents and abilities, even with the help of the Book, can only reach the early stage of Lingxu Realm, which will not be of much help to the growth of the Book itself.

But it's different when a peerless genius comes. A peerless genius may be able to help them deduce to the level of the middle-grade book.

Therefore, Wei Qingyun and Taian Tai'an were all forgotten by them at this moment.

In their eyes, Wang Anye was the only one in their eyes.

Ji Qianqian's face was also full of surprises. She never expected that she "randomly" picked up a young man on the road and came back, and he turned out to be such a peerless genius.

If she wasn't afraid of disturbing Wang Anye's continued understanding of the sword's meaning, she couldn't help but cheer.

"I lost."

It took a long time for Yu Tai'an to finally recover and accept the fact that he was not as good as Wang Anye.

He shook his head with some frustration and disappointment: "This Young Master An Ye is indeed extraordinary. I, Tai'an, am convinced that I lost. From now on, I will never consider myself a swordsman any more."

Just because Yan Tai'an admitted defeat does not mean that Wei Qingyun is willing to admit defeat.

Wei Qingyun has used all the resources he can use for the Sword Formation Dual Jue Book.

His family did have two scriptures that were passed down alternately, but his age was quite embarrassing, and he missed the transition period between the two scriptures.

If he couldn't get this sword formation treasure book, he might never be able to reach the Lingxu realm in his life!

"snort!"

Wei Qingyun's face turned livid, and he sneered and thought to himself.

Wang Anye, Wang Anye, I didn’t expect that this kid like you is pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. If you dare to steal my treasure book from Wei Qingyun, don't blame me for being rude!

He, Wei Qingyun, had made very thorough preparations for the inheritance of this treasure book, especially preparing a trump card to deal with accidents that might occur at any time.

For this reason, some of the elders of the family thought that he had too many things to do, and the trump card he had to prepare turned out to be one of the most important trump cards of the Wei family.

But he never thought that the trump card he had prepared by convincing his grandfather would actually be used.

Just think of this.

His hand touched the [Xi soil pendant] on his waist, and his spiritual thoughts invaded the inside of the jade pendant.

In the space inside the Xi soil pendant, there is a sapling less than one foot tall growing.

This sapling has a slender tree body, with slender and delicate leaves like willow leaves. The power of white luck lingers on its slender branches and leaves, like clouds and mist. It looks ethereal and extremely beautiful.

This sapling is the tree of luck.

But this tree of luck was imprisoned in an extremely complicated formation. Its branches and leaves were drooping and yellowing. It looked droopy and very unhealthy.

This formation was naturally the work of the Wei family.

Because the Tree of Luck has a rebellious character and is unwilling to be tamed or make a contract with the people of the Wei family, in order to control it, the Wei family had to suppress its intelligence with restrictions and formations, causing its consciousness to fall into chaos. , unable to control his own power.

In this way, the Tree of Luck can only be like an ordinary sapling, subject to Wei's control.

In addition to the formation used for imprisonment, there is another formation called the "Heaven Seizing Formation" nested within the formation.

This "Heaven Seizing Formation" seizes the creation of heaven and earth, which can forcibly absorb the original power of the tree of luck and transform it into a power that Xuanwu monks can control.

Moreover, the "Heaven Seizing Formation" can also inhibit the growth of the Tree of Luck, keeping it at the fifth level, making it easier for Wei to continue to suppress and control it. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.

Over the years, the Wei family has relied on this method to develop smoothly and rise rapidly.

Long before arriving, Wei Qingyun had already obtained the jade talisman for controlling the "Heaven Seizing Formation" from his ancestor Wei Dongyu, and imprinted his own divine consciousness on it.

now.

As soon as Wei Qingyun thought about it, the "Heaven Seizing Formation" was activated under his control.

In an instant, the complex formation lit up with star-like light. Surrounded by dots of light, a powerful force of plunder and absorption burst out from the formation.

next moment.

The tree of luck began to tremble violently, as if it was resisting fiercely.

But even so, under the influence of the formation, a little bit of green light was still peeled out of its body, absorbed and transformed by the formation, and turned into power that could be absorbed and used by Xuanwu monks.

These green lights are the original power of the Tree of Luck.

The power of luck is elusive, and it is difficult for humans to control and use it, and even to perceive it.

But as long as they have the original power of the tree of luck, the monks can borrow the power of the tree of luck to gain the ability to control the power of luck within a certain period of time, so that the luck that wanders between heaven and earth can be gathered into one person in a short period of time. body, or temporarily dispel the power of luck from others.

However, because this source of power was wrested through the "Heaven Seizing Formation" and was not generated by itself, it is a consumable.

Each extraction can only last for three hours. After that time, there will be backlash due to the forced use of the original power that is not compatible with one's own bloodline, resulting in extremely poor status and sluggish luck for the next period of time.

But even so, the powerful effect of luck is still enough to offset all its negative effects.

Under the extraction of the "Heaven Seizing Formation", a steady stream of original power was stripped away from the Tree of Luck.

As time goes by, the instinctive resistance and struggle of the Tree of Luck becomes weaker and weaker.

Its slender leaves are trembling, and the slender tree body is also constantly trembling. Even if the intelligence is still suppressed, from its trembling frequency, you can still feel the pain that goes deep into the bone marrow, as if It's like enduring some kind of torture.

By the time the "Heaven Seizing Formation" stopped operating, its condition had become extremely bad. The leaves were wilted than before, the color became darker and yellower, and even the branches became limp and weak, looking as if they were dying.

At the same time, Wei Qingyun's eyes glowed with an undetectable green light. The invisible and qualityless power of luck began to converge on him, covering his whole body.

If someone could observe the power of luck with the naked eye, they would find that at this moment, Wei Qingyun's whole body has been wrapped in the rich white power of luck, and even the top of his head has been glowing with red light, which is a red cloud cover. At the top, there is a sign of great blessings reaching heaven.

Wei Qingyun was determined.

He had seen the master of the family use this trick before, and after using it, it really brought luck, turning misfortune into good luck, and turning adversity into good fortune.

If you are prospecting, you will definitely be able to dig out high-quality mineral veins. If you are competing for business with others, your opponent will most likely have various "accidents". If you are negotiating, you will often have noble people to help you. In short, everything will go extremely smoothly.

In addition, there are some alternative uses in battle.

Wei Qingyun pinched his two fingers hanging by his side, and a jade talisman suddenly appeared between his fingers. Under the stimulation of the mysterious energy, the jade talisman exploded instantly.

The space seemed to be moved by invisible fingers, and an obscure and invisible energy wave spread outward.

Soon, the space within a hundred miles began to rhythm in some mysterious way.

"Huh?" The two concubines of the Sword Formation were the first to notice something was wrong. "The rhythm of the fluctuations in the space seems to have become very strange, and there is something familiar and a bad premonition."

Before they could take a closer look, the clouds in the sky suddenly rolled like a tidal wave.

Thick water vapor gathered, but in an instant, the cotton-white clouds became gloomy and dark, and the smell became more and more dangerous and obscure.

Among the black clouds, there was a faint flash of lightning.

Soon, the area where the black clouds gathered became larger and larger, overwhelmingly pressing toward the Sword Tomb. The thunder clouds kept rolling, and the bursts of muffled thunder shook people's hearts, giving people an unpleasant premonition of an imminent disaster.

"Supernatural power and calamity cloud!"

The two concubines of the Sword Formation were well-informed and were immediately shocked, but at the same time they were puzzled: "What exactly happened? How come the magical tribulation cloud suddenly appeared? These young men seem to be far from reaching the magical tribulation." to the point, right?”

The magical tribulation is a cloud of magical tribulation formed when the peak of the Purple Mansion Realm attempts to break through the magical power realm, triggering the interference of heaven.

I think that Wang Lizi's master, Master Yunyang, was the one who spent the magical calamity in Muyue Mansion in Muyue State.

Each of the successive heirs of the Sword Formation Shuangjue Book has survived the calamity of magical power, so the two concubines of the Sword Formation could see the origin of this calamity cloud at a glance.

"Could it be that the sword intent that this boy has understood is so powerful that it caused the calamity cloud?" Yu Tai'an looked up at the terrifying magical calamity cloud in the sky with his mouth open, and his heart began to beat.

Although he usually wears white clothes, holds a sword in his arms, and dresses like a swordsman, his cultivation level has only just reached the middle stage of the Purple Mansion Realm, and he is still far away from overcoming the tribulation.

With his current level of cultivation, being hit by a magical thunder calamity is no joke.

"Don't be ridiculous. We have lived so long and we have never heard that comprehending the sword's intention will lead to magical disasters." The two beauties of the sword array scolded, "I don't know why, there were some strange energy fluctuations just now, as if The energy fluctuations are like when someone tries to break through the magical power realm. Tiandao was probably misled and mistakenly thought that someone here was trying to advance, and that's why he condensed the calamity cloud."

The path of cultivation is to go against heaven, and the thunder tribulations at each stage are punishment methods for those who want to go against heaven.

However, the way of heaven always leaves a glimmer of hope. If a person who goes against the will of heaven successfully survives the thunder tribulation, the way of heaven will naturally give him a way to survive.

When the human race first practiced to overcome tribulations, they often failed to survive.

However, as the cultivation system continues to improve, the skills become more and more powerful, and the experience, elixirs, treasures, talismans, etc. for heavenly tribulations become more and more complete. , even the magical calamity is no longer a big obstacle.

With enough preparation, most people can get through it successfully.

But the premise is that the cultivation level must reach the peak of Zifu realm. If the cultivation level is not enough and the preparation is not enough, this magical power will become a life-threatening talisman!

Seeing the increasingly powerful magical calamity cloud in the sky and everyone's bewildered look, the instigator, Wei Qingyun, had a triumphant sneer on his lips.

The jade talisman he crushed just now is a relatively rare and unique jade talisman [the Talisman of deceiving the sky and attracting thunder]. Its characteristic is that it can deceive the way of heaven and attract the magical power of the calamity cloud to attack indiscriminately.

This peculiar jade talisman was once popular during the Shenwu Dynasty, and could be used to kill the enemy together when the battlefield was at a disadvantage.

If you are lucky enough, you might be able to escape the disaster and turn things around.

Because it is such a gamble on luck, it is also nicknamed the "Gambling Talisman".

At this moment, he had just absorbed part of the innate instincts of the Tree of Luck saplings, and possessed some of the abilities of the Tree of Luck within a certain period of time. His own luck was constantly rising under the influence of his innate abilities.

In this case, who can bet against Wei Qingyun in terms of luck?

Even if he was "unfortunately" targeted by one of the sky thunders, he would still be able to withstand it with his strength.

As for Wang Anye, who was immersed in the state of sword enlightenment, as long as he was hit by a thunderbolt, he would not be able to eat and walk around. By that time, not to mention that there is still energy left to leave sword marks, whether he can even survive is a question.

Moreover, he was beaten to death by the Heavenly Tribulation. What does Wei Qingyun have to do with him?

Under the terrible pressure of the calamity thunder, Ji Qianqian, who was the weakest at the scene and was only in the Heavenly Realm, turned pale and was working very hard.

"Qianqian, this calamity cloud is not something we can deal with." Ji Yanxiu's face turned pale, and his heart was filled with huge fear. He roared out almost without thinking, "Let's retreat quickly!"

Having said that, he took the lead and stirred up an afterimage, turning into a rainbow light and rushing outwards at high speed.

He is only at the early stage of the Purple Mansion Realm, how can he withstand the calamity cloud of magical power?

Hearing this, Ji Qianqian hesitated for a moment, but did not leave. Instead, she shouted loudly to Wang Anye, trying to wake him up: "Master Anye, don't learn the sword now, wake up quickly!"

However, Wang Anye was immersed in the knowledge of swordsmanship at the moment, and remained motionless despite Ji Qianqian's call, as if he hadn't heard anything.

In the midst of this chaos, the magical calamity clouds in the sky had already condensed the first thunder.

With a "boom", the first thunderbolt hit the fleeing Ji Yanxiu like a thunderbolt.

Ji Yanxiu's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly picked up the Zifu treasure weapon to resist.

"boom!"

A terrifying energy hit Ji Yanxiu, smashing him to the ground along with the Zifu treasure, and making a big hole in the thick rock. He could see that he had more air coming out and less air coming in.

"Master Yanxiu..."

Ji Qianqian's expression changed drastically, and when she was about to save him, she was stopped by Yu Tai'an.

"Miss Ji, please don't be impulsive. That boy is half dead now, and most likely he will not survive. The Heavenly Tribulation will not care about him anymore. If you don't get over, he may still have a glimmer of hope. If you insist on getting over, you won't be able to survive again." If it attracts a thunder from the sky, even you will be dead."

After all, Yu Tai'an is a member of the royal family, and he knows much more about the magical power Jie Yun than ordinary families. In this case, it is true that the more people who gather together, the easier it is to cause a disaster.

"That's right, in this situation, you can't escape by running." Wei Qingyun also put on a thoughtful look and said, "It's better for everyone to spread out. There are eight thunders, an average of two per person. .As for who hits, it all depends on everyone's luck. If Miss Ji is lucky enough, maybe none of them will hit you."

While he was talking, the second thunder was almost brewing.

Before it falls, you can feel that the terrifying connotation contained in its thunder is more terrifying than the first one.

Heavenly tribulations have always been like this. Once the tribulation thunder begins to brew, each one will naturally become more powerful than the last.

There are nine magical tribulations in total. If you want to survive them, the further you go, the harder it becomes.

"No, Mr. Anye is in danger." Ji Qianqian bit her silver teeth, and her delicate body drew an arc and landed in front of the Sword Enlightenment Monument, pulling towards Wang Anye who was immersed in the Sword Enlightenment.

The scope of the robbery is very wide. In fact, even if Wang Anye wakes up, he probably won't be able to escape.

But no matter what, as long as he wakes up, he has a chance to live. If Wang Anye continues to sit like this, without protection, if the lightning strikes him, he will definitely die.

Ji Qianqian thought to herself that she could only help him so far. When he wakes up, whether he can block the thunder will depend on his ability.

"boom!"

A streak of silver passed through the sky and went straight towards the two of them.

As that terrifying power enveloped her, Ji Qianqian's expression suddenly changed, and she suddenly felt a sense of impending disaster, and felt a chill in her heart.

It's over, it's over, now not only is he dead, but I'm afraid I'll also implicate Mr. An Ye.

Her body trembled slightly, and there were bursts of despair in her eyes.

However.

Right in the middle of this electric light.

Falling into despair, she was shaken all over. She felt her arm being grabbed by a strong hand, and then pulled.

Before she could react, she had already fallen into Wang Anye's arms.

She felt as if her cheek was sunk into a solid chest, and her body was half-circled by a strong arm. Even through the material, she could feel the heartbeat behind the material. This feeling was so comfortable, Incredibly warm, extremely stable.

For a moment, she was stunned, and she actually forgot about the thunder disaster above her head.

And at the same time.

There was a scattered calamity cloud floating across the sky, just blocking the way of the silver light of thunder and lightning.

The lightning stagnated for a moment, then suddenly made a small bend, turned around, and struck Taian in the other direction.

"I...fuck...how can this thunder be returned..." Yu Tai'an's eyes almost popped out of his head, and he almost subconsciously wanted to curse.

However, Tianlei didn't give him a chance.

He had just finished speaking when the harsh lightning had already hit the magical shield he used to protect himself, as well as the umbrella-shaped energy shield that protected his figure.

"boom!"

Amidst the loud noise, the energy shield was blown to pieces in an instant. Yuan Tai'an was also thrown backward by the terrible impact, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

It wasn't until this moment that the second half of what he said was squeezed out through his teeth: "...and you're so weird about it?"

After being hit by a thunderstorm, Taian's face turned pale and he looked miserable.

However, at this moment, he didn't care about his own state at all. Instead, he looked at Wang Anye, who was still sitting upright in a refreshing outfit not far away, and Ji Qianqian in his arms, with tangled eyes, confused expressions, and puzzled expressions.

…
