Chapter 430: So that’s it? Gu Yuanqing calmly refilled the tea for the old man in sackcloth and said with a smile, "I don't know about this." The old man in hemp clothes said, "This senior's sword art is so famous that the other two have been ignored by the world." Gu Yuanqing asked again: "Daoyou just called this place Sanjue Island. Could it be that this place once belonged to Old Man Sanjue?" The old man in hemp clothes smiled and said, "Daoyou, why are you asking when you already know the answer? Since you control this cave, you should have received the inheritance from the old man Sanjue." Gu Yuanqing said: "You are knowledgeable and experienced, I admire you. However, let's not talk about this matter for now. I would like to know your name, sir?" The old man in hemp clothes clasped his fists and said, "I am Ji Shan, nice to meet you, Daoist Fellow Gu!" "Friend Ji!" Gu Yuanqing returned the greeting. The two smiled at each other. Afterwards, the two of them drank tea and discussed the art of formations, and did not mention the matter of old man Sanjue again. After all, Gu Yuanqing changed the subject, and Ji Shan also tacitly did not ask any more questions.

Over the years, as his cultivation became more and more advanced, there were fewer and fewer people who could discuss the Dao with him so freely. People like Li Shian and Ji Dai were no longer the same in front of him as before, and became very restrained. Moreover, Gu Yuanqing was also very interested in the art of formations. He had studied the true meaning of the Great Yi Formation for many years. Today, he met a master of formations. During the communication, Gu Yuanqing gained a lot of insights and clapped his hands and sighed from time to time. It seemed that Ji Shan had no secrets about the art of battle. As long as Gu Yuanqing asked, he would tell him everything he knew. The two of them sat together for seven days, and Gu Yuanqing felt that he had suddenly become enlightened about the art of formations. At the end, Gu Yuanqing bowed deeply: "Thank you, fellow Taoist!" "Thank you for your courtesy, fellow Daoist. I don't deserve it." Ji Shan stood up to return the greeting. Then he glanced at the cultivators on Qianyuan Island who were obviously sealed and doing hard labor. He seemed to hesitate for a moment and asked, "I still have something to ask. I wonder which of the Three Wonders Elder's inheritance you inherited?" Gu Yuanqing was surprised and asked, "Does Brother Ji seem to have some other meaning in his words?" Ji Shan stared at Gu Yuanqing and said, "I just want to confirm whether the sword in your hand is the Heavenly Demon Sword?" Gu Yuanqing smiled in silence: "Why do you ask this, fellow Taoist?" Ji Shan said: "The cultivation world is in turmoil. The Heavenly Demon Sword has appeared in the world. Many sects are worried. First there was the Holy Scar Sect, and then the Qianyuan Sect. It is rumored that they all belong to the Heavenly Demon Sword Master." "The Qianyuan Sect is under the command of the Heavenly Demon Sword Master? Where did this rumor come from?" Gu Yuanqing raised his eyebrows. Ji Shan said: "It's been widely spread in the cultivation world. It is said that this statement came from the mouth of the Holy Son of Yunmeng Holy Land. Beiming Immortal Sect and many sects above the North Sea are witnesses." "Holy Son of Yunmeng?" The young man in the starry realm flashed through Gu Yuanqing's mind, and a hint of murderous intent emerged in his eyes. If he had said that he had robbed the other party of his opportunity before, although he felt that this grudge was difficult to resolve, he still felt that he was somewhat in the wrong. But after hearing this incident, that hint of guilt was completely gone. "It seems that you don't know these things?" Ji Shan said. Gu Yuanqing shook his head and suddenly smiled: "I really don't know. My Qianyuan Sect has been practicing hard on the island, and no one has come out, so I have no idea what is going on in the cultivation world. Today, I heard from my fellow Taoist that my Qianyuan Sect's reputation outside has become like this!" "Fellow Daoist, you don't seem to care too much?" Ji Shan said. "What can I do if I care? Rumors can melt gold. Yunmeng Holy Land must have a very high status in the cultivation world, and there are many sects to prove it. I am afraid that even if I have time, Qianyuan Sect will find it difficult to explain it clearly. However, what is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true. In the cultivation world, strength speaks. If someone believes the rumors and comes to my Qianyuan Sect to embarrass me, any consequences will be his own fault." Ji Shan sighed, "Fellow Daoist, you have seen things clearly. However, I still want to give you a piece of advice. If Qian Yuan Sect really has nothing to do with the Heavenly Demon Sword, you should make it clear. Otherwise, there will be more killings in the conflict. Moreover, the situation on the battlefield outside the domain is not optimistic right now. If there is an internal strife in the cultivation world, it will only make the situation worse." "Extraterritorial battlefield?" "Yes, back then, old man Tianjian killed five demon kings, and the demons retreated. But tens of thousands of years later, they came back again with great force. In the past two thousand years, almost all the celestial beings in the cultivation world have achieved the second catastrophe of heavenly transformation, and then crossed over to the spirit world and left, leaving only a few to suppress the sects. This is the reason. Good and evil are originally incompatible, but now there has been no dispute for many years, and this is also the reason."

When Gu Yuanqing heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly. Old Man Tianjian left behind four swords, namely, Subduing Demon, Slaying Demon, Sealing Demon and Heavenly Demon. He had always thought that this demon was from the Demon Realm, but now he realized that this demon was actually a Heavenly Demon from outside the realm. Ji Shan asked again in a serious tone, "Could you please tell me which lineage of Elder Tian Jian you inherited?" "What do you think, fellow Taoist?" Gu Yuanqing asked. Ji Shan said: "I have known you for a few days. I don't think you have anything to do with the Heavenly Demon Sword, but I want to get a positive answer. Besides, the inheritance of Elder Tianjian is very important to the cultivation world." Gu Yuanqing was silent for a moment, then he raised his hand, and a three-inch small sword appeared in his hand. With a thought, countless phantoms appeared, and a sword formation surrounded him. "The Demon-Subduing Sword Formation! This is the Demon-Subduing Sword!" Ji Shan seemed a little surprised. Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "If others were to ask about the cause, I might just kill it with my sword, but since you have taught me the art of formation, I will tell you the truth. However, please keep it a secret. After all, you should know how attractive this sword is to the Lord of the Heavenly Demon Sword. The Heavenly Demon Sword is hard to defend against. If this Demon Subduing Sword also falls into his hands, perhaps the cultivation world will be even more restless." Ji Shan was slightly distracted. He traveled around the world, actually with the idea of ​​looking for the inheritance of Old Man Tianjian. After all, old man Tianjian has profound magical powers. He almost single-handedly wiped out the outer demons back then. Perhaps he also has some tricks up his sleeve to deal with the outer demons. Later, when he arrived at the North Sea, he had a feeling and observed the stars, and deduced that this place might contain an opportunity to resolve the crisis of the world. After entering the formation, I saw the sleeping divine turtle under the sea and knew that I had found the right direction. When he was fighting with Gu Yuanqing in the air, there seemed to be a shadow of Old Man Tianjian in the formation, so he thought that Gu Yuanqing inherited the formation art of Old Man Tianjian. Later, when he went into the mountain to communicate with Gu Yuanqing about the formation, he actually had the intention of finding out the truth. But later he felt that Gu Yuanqing's formation method was not like the inheritance of old man Tianjian, so he asked the last question. But he didn't expect that Gu Yuanqing actually got the Demon-Subduing Sword. Thinking of this, he glanced at the underwater tortoise and this peaceful cave, and suddenly remembered an incident he had read in ancient books. He seemed to have some enlightenment in his heart, and said with a smile: "I understand, fellow Taoist, don't worry, this matter concerns the safety of the world, and I will definitely keep it a secret! Haha, no wonder the divine tortoise woke up at this time, so that's it, so that's it!" Huh? What's that? Seeing Ji Shan's sudden enlightenment, Gu Yuanqing was a little surprised. What did Ji Shan understand? Was it about the safety of the world? He always felt that there was something strange in Ji Shan's words! (End of this chapter)
