Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 257 – Broken Dao Heart



Chapter 257 – Broken Dao Heart

Su Yun has been through many adventures recently, relying on the power of gods and demons such as Ying Long, Taotie, Xiang Liu, etc. to repeatedly turn danger into safety. Although these gods and demons have different purposes, they all helped Su Yun get through difficulties.

Now that Taotie has been sealed, Xiang Liu has been suppressed, and Ying Long, who habitually sleeps for five thousand years, is also asleep, facing the hidden sect\'s cave master like Jing Zhao, a slight mistake may result in being killed by the opponent!

"Su Master, I am traveling around, selecting disciples for the Huoyun Cave, and have been to Shuofang before."

Jing Zhao heard his bragging, but did not get angry, and said lightly: "Speaking of which, Master Su was also among those I inspected. When Master Su shone in the Thunder Strike Valley, I had the idea of taking you as my disciple."

Su Yun\'s heart moved slightly, looked at Yu Qingluo, who had been to the Thunder Strike Valley in Shuofang before, and thought that Jing Zhao was also there at that time.

Jing Zhao sighed and said: "Unfortunately, I saw Master Su use the key of the Tongtian Tower, and realized that I was one step too late. You were already taken by the Tower Master."

Su Yun didn\'t know about his connection with Huoyun Cave, and said: "What virtue and ability do I have to be favored by Master Jing?"

"But after a few months, you have been taught wrongly by the Tongtian Tower."

Jing Zhao\'s words turned sharply: "Master Su was originally a modest young man, but after becoming the Tower Master, he learned to be like the Tongtian Tower, from the skin to the inside, from the flesh to the spirit, all with the stench of the Tongtian Tower."

Su Yun was almost suffocated.

Ying Ying warned: "Master Su, I think we should leave! There must be a connection and grievances between the Huoyun Cave and the Tongtian Tower, and the grievances are not small!"

"Ying Ying, do you know what grievances are?" Su Yun\'s spirit hurriedly asked.

"How would I know? I only remember that Master Ying is a member of the Tongtian Tower, and I know little about others. In fact, Master Ying\'s memory is not complete."

Ying Ying is a book monster formed by the attachment of Ying Shi\'s spirit to books. The memories awakened by Ying Shi\'s spirit can only come from Ying Shi\'s spirit.

And the spirit is highly condensed spiritual energy, so only the ** that Ying Shi is deeply impressed with will be imprinted in the spirit. Some unimportant memories and details of life will not appear in the spirit.

Obviously, either Ying Shi has never heard of the grievances between the Tongtian Tower and the Huoyun Cave, or she thinks it is not important.

Jing Zhao walked down from the Huoyun Cave with his hands behind his back, and said: "Since Master Su thinks that the secret techniques of the emperors and saints of the past are not good and cannot surpass the new techniques, then I have to ask Master Su..."

Before the word "teach" was spoken, Jing Zhao\'s face changed slightly, and he looked up at the sky.

Su Yun also noticed the anomaly and hurriedly looked up at the sky. He saw a giant sword more than ten feet long flying in the sky and arriving over Donghai County.

"Immortal sword? No, it\'s not an immortal sword!"Su Yun\'s heart skipped a beat as a divine rope pen flew out from his sleeve and took him into the air. Su Yun retrieved the divine rope and stood on the blue clouds formed by the dust curtain sky, looking towards the large sword, his face changing dramatically.

Under Jing Zhao\'s feet, a fiery cloud rose slowly, holding him up in mid-air. At the same time, a green vine rooted itself outside the Sea Post Station, growing rapidly and piercing into the sky.

Yu Qingluo stood on a leaf of the vine, holding onto it and looking towards the sword. Her face also changed dramatically.

Behind the large sword in the sky was a group of silver flying swords flying towards the East Sea County.

"Look over there!" Ying Ying flew out of Su Yun\'s spiritual realm and pointed behind them.

Su Yun quickly turned his head and his heart pounded as he saw another cloud of swords flying towards them, with a large sword at the forefront!

Both clouds of swords came from the sea.

East Sea County was located on the east coast, a peninsula surrounded by the sea on three sides. Obviously, the enemy was attacking from the north and south seas of East Sea County!

"It\'s not targeting East Sea County!"

The East Sea Marquis, Yuan Zhen, a master of the Yuan family, also noticed the anomaly and flew up into the air, calling out, "Don\'t panic, everyone! This is a naval battle between Da Qin and Da Xia, not an attack on my Yuan Shuo!"

Many spiritualists and scholars from East Sea County activated their spiritual weapons and prepared to deal with the aftermath of the naval battle between Da Qin and Da Xia. Obviously, this was not the first time such a thing had happened.

Yuan Zhen saw Su Yun\'s blue clouds from afar, his heart shaking, and came over to greet him as an equal, saying with a smile, "So it\'s Young Master Su. Hasn\'t Young Master Su left Yuan Shuo for overseas duty?"

Su Yun returned the greeting, "I just came back from Lingnan and planned to leave today."

Yuan Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, "Leaving today? That\'s great. I have to order someone to prepare some firecrackers and celebrate properly..."

He looked at Jing Zhao and Yu Qingluo, but didn\'t recognize them, so he didn\'t pay much attention to them.

The Fire Cloud Cave was an extremely secretive inheritance, even more so than the Tongtian Pavilion.

The Fire Cloud Cave generally only had dealings with saints, but such dealings were rare. Usually, when the saints were in their twilight years, the Fire Cloud Cave Master would personally go to see them, demonstrating the divine powers and techniques of the previous generations of saints, and then invite the saints to enter the Three Emperors\' Fire Cloud Cave Heaven.

Generally speaking, the saints in their twilight years would gladly go and leave their own unique skills in the cave.

Although Yuan Zhen was also of extraordinary status, he was still far from having any contact with the Fire Cloud Cave, and had never even heard of it.

Su Yun looked at the cloud of swords flying towards them in the sky and asked in confusion, "Marquis, why are Da Qin and Da Xia fighting in Yuan Shuo?"

Yuan Zhen laughed, "Young Master Su doesn\'t know. These two countries are both barbarians and have had a feud for hundreds of years. They often kill each other for no reason. My East Sea County has also suffered disasters for no reason. This is not the first time..."Before he could finish speaking, two groups of sword clouds in the sky collided!

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, countless sword lights suddenly erupted when the sword clouds collided, and the sword lights shot in all directions!

Su Yun stood on the azure sky, his mind moved slightly, and the dusty sky turned into a dome, blocking the long sword lights that were several zhang long!

The huge power hidden in the sword lights actually pierced through the dome formed by the dusty sky.

Su Yun dodged the sword light that pierced through the dome, secretly surprised in his heart: "The attainments in swordsmanship and divine abilities of the soldiers of Da Qin and Da Xia are too high, aren\'t they?"

These sword lights were not spiritual weapons or treasures, but the residual waves of divine abilities that burst out from the flying swords. The power of just the residual waves was so amazing, it\'s imaginable how powerful the flying swords in the sword clouds were!

The sword lights in the sky were like thin as cicada wings pieces of glass, and many sword lights shot down towards the ground.

In Donghai County, the soldiers guarding the place quickly urged their spiritual weapons to protect the county, and ripples emerged from the giant spiritual weapons, blocking hundreds of sword lights.

There were also soldiers standing on buildings, urging their divine abilities to stop any stray sword lights.

Su Yun looked down and saw that Donghai County was heavily defended, and even if some sword lights entered the city, they did not cause much damage.

He looked up and saw thousands of flying swords crisscrossing in the sky above Donghai County, and every time a flying sword moved, it would create a sword light, forming a sword light canopy that covered the sky above Donghai County!

In the distance, many foreign spiritualists could be vaguely seen flying over. The techniques they practiced were vastly different from those of Yuan Shuo\'s, and they even had meat wings growing on their backs, allowing them to fly by flapping their wings!

Their divine abilities formed a heavenly vision in the sky, with a heavenly gate towering and various gods standing on it.

These foreign spiritualists had not even encountered Yuan Shuo\'s soldiers yet, but they had already urged the sword clouds to engage in battle!

"Lord Hou, the county is defended, but what about the surrounding villages?" Su Yun suddenly asked.

Donghai Marquis Yuan Zhen said: "What else can we do? We can only rely on ourselves. Don\'t worry, the foreign merchants at the sea post won\'t destroy it..."

Su Yun urged the Dao Gate Heavenly Eye, and a vertical eye split open on his forehead, looking into the distance. He saw long sword lights falling into the countryside.

A small village in Donghai County was peaceful, with fat cows and sheep, and villagers farming and weaving as usual.

However, in the next moment, the sky lit up, and a bright sword light fell into this small village. The houses in the village were lifted up by the falling sword light and shattered into pieces, and the fragments of the sword light tore apart any people and animals that didn\'t have time to dodge!

"Shoo Shoo Shoo!"

The soldiers of Da Qin and Da Xia were fighting fiercely in the sky, and the residual waves constantly fell to various places in Donghai County. For a time, countless people in the countryside were killed or injured!

Jing Zhao saw the situation and was furious. He flew up into the sky and shouted: "Barbarians from foreign lands, dare to bully Yuan Shuo like this!"His cultivation was boundless, and he had already reached the level of the Original Dao realm. His skills in the Fire Cloud Cave came from the inheritance of the saints of previous generations, displaying the old saint\'s divine power while attacking the soldiers of Da Qin and Da Xia.

Su Yun felt relieved in his heart: "Even if Jing Zhao\'s words are harsh, he is still a person of Yuan Shuo, and he has the heart to protect his country. With such a heart, he is not an enemy of the Tongtian Tower..."

He had just thought of this when Jing Zhao\'s divine power had already broken through the sword cloud of both sides.

Su Yun was shocked. Jing Zhao\'s skills were almost as powerful as the four great myths. His divine power was easily broken by the sword cloud of thousands of soldiers from Da Qin and Da Xia!

Jing Zhao continuously changed dozens of saint divine powers in the air, which were repeatedly broken. Sword lights like rain penetrated his divine power, leaving wounds on the old man\'s body.

The soldiers of Da Qin and Da Xia flew over and finally engaged in a frontal battle.

Jing Zhao was sandwiched in the center of the two sides\' battle formation, resisting both sides\' attacks. The gods of the two heavenly palaces were standing in the sky, and divine powers roared down. Jing Zhao spurted blood and could not support himself any longer, but continued to roar and fight hard.

Su Yun quickly urged the Immortal Rope, which flew into the battlefield and wrapped around Jing Zhao, finally saving him when he was about to be defeated!

"Yuan Shuo barbarian!" A laughter of a foreign soldier came from the sky.

Su Yun retrieved the Immortal Rope and placed Jing Zhao on the cyan clouds of the Dust Curtain Sky. He frowned.

He looked up and saw the soldiers of Da Qin and Da Xia fighting fiercely in the sky, with various divine powers and dao methods that he had never seen before, with tremendous power!

Jing Zhao\'s face was ashen, lying on the Dust Curtain Sky, covered in blood, staring blankly at the divine powers and spiritual weapons of the two sides in the sky.

Yu Qingluo quickly came forward to check his injuries.

Jing Zhao suddenly burst into tears, and Yu Qingluo didn\'t know what to do.

"Su scholar, it seems like his Dao heart has been shattered." Ying Ying said with some reluctance.

Su Yun looked up at the sky, watching the divine powers and dao methods being fought in the sky, biting his lips tightly and not saying a word.

He couldn\'t understand most of these divine powers and dao methods.

The only part he could understand was the part that Cang Jiuhua gave to Yuan Shuo!

The battle in the sky soon ended, and the soldiers of Da Xia retreated, leaving behind corpses. The soldiers of Da Qin pursued and fought until they reached the sea surface of the opponent, then they stopped and returned.

There were several large ships on the opponent\'s sea surface, piled with spiritual weapons, which were extremely powerful. Even the strong men of Da Qin did not dare to approach.

Jing Zhao stopped, staring blankly.

A soldier from Da Qin fell from the sky and landed on the Dust Curtain Sky. He looked up and down at Su Yun, suddenly knelt down on one knee, and bowed, "Wulei Master from the Overseas Tongtian Tower, Liang Shuangyuan, pays respects to the Tongtian Tower Master of Yuan Shuo!"Su Yun raised his hand slightly and asked, "You are from the Overseas Tongtian Pavilion? Why did you lead an army to attack Yuanshuo?"

The fierce battle in the sky just now, the sword that severely injured Jing Zhao, came from the hand of Liang Shuangyuan, a soldier of the Great Qin Kingdom.

"The Overseas Tongtian Pavilion has already surpassed the Yuanshuo Tongtian Pavilion. I followed the etiquette to pay respects to the Master of the Yuanshuo Tongtian Pavilion, but I am not his subordinate."

Liang Shuangyuan stood up and laughed, "Our Overseas Tongtian Pavilion has already chosen a new Pavilion Master, and the new Pavilion Master is the true orthodox!"
