Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 227 Heaven and Earth

 Yunlu Pass General Pass.

Chen Mu stood on the Yunlu wall directly in front of the general pass, looking at the turbulent pieces of yellow sand on the horizon in the distance. Some were rolling over like ocean waves, while others were circling like tornadoes.

It had been nearly half a month since he came to Yunlu Pass. Except for the first day when he dispatched support and killed a sand monster, in the next half month he dispatched only a handful of times, only four or five times. On the one hand, Lingxuan Feng's troops are sufficient, and there are strong men such as Chu Jingshu. In many cases, he can arrive in time and suppress them without him. On the other hand, sixth-level monsters are not that common. They are often caught in a sand disaster. , and there won’t be many.

 As for the seventh level,

That is even rarer.

Seventh-level monsters are often called "demon kings". Their wisdom is basically close to that of humans. It is difficult for them to become manic and restless due to natural disasters and other reasons, and take the initiative to attack human strongholds, especially now that Daxuan rules the world and all living things. Bowing down, the wise demon kings all know that they are far from rivals of the human race. Most of them are hidden deep in the corners of the earth and rarely emerge from the world.

 【Martial Arts: The Artistic Conception of the Universe (Second Step)】

  【Experience: 3351 points】

 【Number of deductions possible: 0 times】

 Chen Mu looked at the patches of sandstorms on the horizon for a while, then called up the system interface and took a look.

After arriving at Yunlu Pass for half a month, his experience value increased by nearly 3,000 points. This is indeed much more than the artistic conception diagrams he studied at Lingxuan Peak, but most of these experiences came from Xuanyuanwu. Comprehension of earth formation.

After half a month, he has basically understood the Xuanyuanwu Earth Formation. Although it may not be possible to lay it out as it is, that is only due to the lack of control over the earth veins, not the Don't know how to do it.

to be honest.

Now he is able to take charge of the repair work of Yunlubi to a certain extent.

This is also the power of the artistic conception of Qiankun, which encompasses everything in the world. Whatever you learn can be incorporated into yourself. Otherwise, even if you master the artistic conception of the Five Elements Earth Spirit, it will be difficult for you to initially grasp the mystery of the Xuanyuanwu Earth Formation within three to five years. .

However, after understanding the Xuan Yuan Wu Earth Formation, Chen Mu basically had no experience value to gain from understanding the formation later. Therefore, in his spare time, he stood on the city wall and comprehended the sandstorm and celestial phenomena. .

 "Chen Zhenzhuan! Asking for help at the North Twenty-seventh Pass!"

 Suddenly, a messenger hurried over and reported to Chen Mu.

"Um."

 Chen Mu was still looking at the dust storms in the desert in the distance, but the next moment he suddenly disappeared on the spot, taking one step across twenty or thirty feet, and disappeared in an instant.

 …

　　North Twenty-Seven Pass.

Located directly in front of the pass, on the Yunlu Wall, there are many armored soldiers holding spears standing above. There are also many Lingxuan Peak disciples and two Lingxuan Peak deacons mixed among them, all with solemn expressions.

In front of everyone, a wave of dust and sand was seen rolling in. It was not far away, accompanied by a heart-stopping brilliant power of heaven. It was as if under such changes in the celestial phenomena, even the warriors were nothing but ants. No countervailing power.

 In the dust and sand.

 There are many monsters vaguely visible, of various types.

 “Many monsters…”

Shen Lin held a sword in her hand and looked at Sandstorm with solemn eyes, saying: "There are at least two or three fifth-level monsters, and there may be more inside. This is a bit tricky."

She was not confident that she could deal with a fifth-level monster alone, and it was difficult to fight. Although two deacons arrived in time, facing this wave of offensive without a protector from the Six Fu realm, it was difficult to feel at ease.

Linghu Shang stood aside and whispered: "The request for help has been sent out. We are not very far from the main pass. As long as not all the guardians on the main pass have gone out, we will definitely be able to make it in time."

 “Hope...huh?”

Before Shen Lin finished speaking, she suddenly glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw a figure in the distance coming along the Yunlu wall. One moment, it was far away. The next moment, it was already close to him. Another moment, he had already appeared. In front of everyone.

 Linghu Shang reacted quickly and immediately saluted the visitor: "Senior Brother Chen!"

 “Senior Brother Chen.”

Shen Lin also reacted quickly and gave a bow with slightly red cheeks.

Chen Mu came so quickly, could it be because he knew she was at the North 27th Pass?

 “In emergency situations, there is no need to be polite.”

Chen Mu spoke calmly, not paying much attention to Shen Lin's appearance. He had also lived in Lingxuan Peak for a year and a half. There were more than one junior sister in Lingxuan Peak who blushed slightly and even stuttered when they saw him. He is very used to it.

In the past, he was just an unknown figure in a small place, or he held the status of a high-ranking official, and was mostly respected wherever he went. However, a sect like Qixuan Sect is different, and is more inclined to the world. This true senior brother is not only extremely talented, but also handsome. It would be unreasonable if he did not have some junior sisters who he admires.

"coming!"

At almost this moment, a Lingxuan Peak deacon not far away suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

As his voice fell, he saw that the billowing dust and sand had approached the bottom of the Yunlu wall, and soon surged up, plunging the entire pass into the wind and sand. At the same time, monsters came with the wind and sand, along the Yunlu. Climb up the wall.

Yunlu Wall is about a hundred feet high. This is not a height that can be climbed with just one jump. Even if Chen Mu jumps with all his strength now, the distance is only tens of feet. This is only in a straight line. It is even more difficult to jump high.

 “Yu!”

 The general in charge of the troops made a low shout.

But I saw rows of soldiers, each holding a spear and stabbing at the monsters that were about to climb up.

Although many monsters are powerful, including many of the third and even fourth levels, and these soldiers are not at the level of flesh training, climbing the Yunlu Wall is not only laborious, but also has to withstand the pressure of the internal earth veins, which is worth a spear when they jump up. Even if the body is strong and cannot be pierced, it will suddenly become unsustainable and fall again.

but.

Among them, there are also fourth-level monsters that are good at climbing. They jumped along the Yunlu wall a few times and then climbed up forcefully. When they opened their huge mouths, their tongues covered with barbs swept towards the nearest female disciple. Wrap around.

"snort."

The nearest Lingxuan Peak deacon snorted coldly, swiped the sword light in his hand, and cut off the tongue. After rescuing the female disciple, he used another sword to kill the fourth-level monster. .

The female disciple was a little frightened for a moment, and her chest heaved violently several times. Just when she was about to say thank you to the deacon, suddenly a dull roar came from below the Yunlu wall beside her, and a surge of demonic power gathered, wrapping up a stream of quicksand and heading towards her. The whole person surged forward, trying to sweep her down when her head fell.

 “Watch out!”

Linghu Shang and Shen Lin, who were the closest, spoke in unison, slashed diagonally with two swords, one on the left and one on the right, barely intercepting the flow of quicksand, and then faced the fifth-level monster lizard climbing up the city wall.

The female disciple didn't know what to do for a moment, so she staggered back two steps. Suddenly, in the dust and sand above, the sand waves suddenly broke, and a monster bird that looked like a sand eagle came down from the top. It was huge in size and its wings were spread out. Nearly ten feet away, huge sharp claws fell directly towards her, and the terrifying aura belonging to a fifth-level monster burst out, trying to capture her directly.

Facing fatal threats three times in a row, Liu Ying felt a little stupid for a moment, partly because she was frightened by the power of the demon, and partly because she couldn't change her mind. She couldn't even raise her sword to resist, but when she saw that the demon bird's sharp claws were about to capture her.

Hum!

An invisible coercion rippled out, causing the sandstorm within a few feet to suddenly solidify. Together with the huge demon eagle, it also solidified in mid-air. It just stood still on top of Liu Ying's head, with its giant claws away from her. Only less than a foot!

 Chen Mu appeared next to her in one step. He raised his hand and shook it in the air. The power of the sky gathered and squeezed. With a bang, he crushed the demon eagle into a ball and threw it aside.

"what's wrong with you?"

Chen Mu glanced at Liu Ying.

Is this junior sister doing something evil? All the monsters rushed to her alone.

 “Chen, Senior Brother Chen…”

 Liu Ying was still standing there stupidly.

Chen Mu frowned slightly, suddenly stretched out his hand towards her, reached into her arms, took out a jade bottle from her arms, took one look at it, crushed the jade bottle casually, and pushed it to the bottom of the Yunlu wall. Throw.

In an instant, there was chaos below the Yunlu Wall, and waves of monsters' roars could be heard.

"Who asked you to bring rosemary?" Chen Mu took back what he said before. This junior sister was not doing anything wrong, but a little stupid.

However, he was not interested in paying too much attention to it at the moment. After throwing away the jade bottle, he moved forward along the Yunlu Wall, taking out a palm from time to time to kill a fourth-level monster or a fifth-level monster that climbed up. .

Wherever he goes, there are basically no enemies in Yihe. Under the seal of the city with the power of Qian Tian, ​​monsters below the fifth level cannot even move in front of him. Even fifth-level monsters cannot struggle if they want to. It's very difficult, and it can basically be killed with a snap of your fingers.

Even for ordinary people in the Six Fu Realm, it is not as easy as him to kill fifth-level monsters. After all, many fifth-level monsters can dodge and flee in the chaotic wind and sand. It is not difficult to rely on the power of the sky to support them for a moment or two. But in the chaotic wind and sand, it is not difficult to kill them. In front of Chen Mu, the natural power that these monsters could rely on was completely useless.

 “This is the artistic conception of Qian Tian…”

Shen Lin looked at where Chen Mu went, no matter whether the fourth or fifth level monsters were slapping each one with a palm, her heart was filled with ups and downs. She was the last to arrive because she didn't follow Chen Mu, but she came. Later, I heard that Chen Mu had mastered the Qiantian mood, but I had never seen it with my own eyes before. Now that I saw it, I was still shocked.

“I don’t know who is stronger or weaker, Senior Brother Chen or Senior Brother Zhou.”

She murmured in her heart.

With Chen Mu's help, there was no danger of the sand disaster in this pass. In less than a quarter of an hour, only two or three big cats and kittens were left among the monsters in the wind and sand. This was because Chen Mu had not responded. The reason why monsters that are too low in level are specifically left to the disciples of Lingxuan Peak to be trained, otherwise they can be killed faster.

 About half an hour later, the wind and sand gradually subsided.

"I'll go check it out again. Just stay here and don't move around."

Seeing that the wind and sand were gradually stopping, Chen Mu gave orders to Linghu Shang and the others, and then stepped out, leaving the Yunlu Wall and heading towards the wind and sand. He saw the rolling yellow sand condensed into pieces of sand and stones under his feet. , after briefly carrying his footsteps, pieces collapsed again, and after he fell a few steps, he disappeared among the dust and sand that blocked the clouds and the sun.

Monsters can borrow the power of dust and sand, and he can naturally do so. Without support, he cannot escape into the sky, even if he inspires the Xunfeng artistic conception to the extreme. However, with the artistic conception of Qian Tian and the artistic conception of Genshan, you can use the wind and sand to temporarily stay in the air.

 This is also the method he learned in these days of fighting.

Many Lingxuan Peak disciples looked at Chen Mu stepping up into the sky step by step, all with expressions of admiration on their faces.

 “Senior Brother Chen is actually able to control the sky…”

“It must be the power of Qian Tian and Gen Shan, with the help of the wind and sand.”

Linghu Shang spoke from the side, with a hint of awe in his eyes, and said: "Senior Brother Chen has not only mastered the Qiantian Artistic Concept, he has even reached the second step of the Genshan Artistic Concept."

 Shen Lin watched Chen Mu’s back disappear, as if remembering something, and said: "The rookie score is released once a year. Senior Brother Chen has mastered the Qiantian mood. The next time it is released, he will probably be in the top ten."

Linghu Shang nodded and said: "Senior Brother Zhou was ninth last time, and Senior Brother Chen should be about the same now."

"Um."

 Shen Lin turned her head again and looked in the direction where Chen Mu disappeared.

 …

Chen Mu climbed up step by step in the wind and sand, and soon he reached a place higher than the Yunlu Wall. The dust here gradually became thinner and could no longer hold him in the air. He stopped and glanced at the bottom first. , and then looked through the dust and sand into the depths of the desert in the distance.

Using dust and sand, he can reach a higher place than Yunlubi in a short time, where he is closer to the sky. He can not only overlook Yunlubi, but also feel the changes in the sky more closely.

 After a while.

The dust and sand gradually dispersed, and Chen Mu could not stay in the sky. He fell back to Yunlu Pass from the sky step by step, and returned to the main pass.

 “I wonder when I will be able to truly control the sky.”

Chen Mulue looked at the sky with some regret.

It is not easy for a warrior to control the air, because his body is strong and naturally heavier. With Chen Mu's current ability, it is not difficult to walk on water, but he still can't do it in the air.

As far as he knows, only martial arts masters, who have mastered the relatively advanced artistic conception of Xunfeng, can control the air to a certain extent, but the speed is far inferior to that on the ground. Apart from showing the master's style, there is no great purpose. Many practical uses.

North 27th Pass is not far from the main pass.

 It’s about thirty miles away.

  After a while.

 Chen Mu was already approaching the main pass.

But his expression gradually became serious. As he walked along the city gate, he looked at the desert in the distance. He saw that the sky in the distance had become a little dark at this time, accompanied by bursts of Suppressed, at the same time, a billowing dust storm can be seen, which seems to be gradually swallowing up other surrounding sandstorms, and is gradually condensing into one.

When Chen Mu arrived at Zhongguan, he saw that Xia Houyan, Chu Jingshu, Meng Danyun and others had almost all gathered at Zhongguan.

 “Junior brother Chen.”

When Xia Houyan saw Chen Mu coming back, he looked at Chen Mu solemnly and said, "There is something different in the sky. There will be a catastrophic disaster within half a day. We must work together to deal with it."

During the sand disaster, the wind and sand that attacked Yunlu Pass were also divided into strong and weak ones. Among them, the weaker ones were not mixed with many monsters, so they basically posed no threat. Don't worry about it. Yunlu Pass itself can block it.

But in the strongest type of storm, many soldiers in the flesh-grinding realm cannot even gain a foothold on the city gate. Even warriors in the Yijin realm find it difficult to stabilize their bodies, and there are often a large number of them. monster.

“After surviving this round, this sand disaster should be over.”

Chu Jingshu stood aside and said: "The power of the earth's veins in the desert will also weaken by then. We can work together to explore the outskirts of the desert, and maybe we can harvest a lot of useful heaven and earth spiritual objects."

Xia Houyan shook his head and said: "Not to mention that, let's prepare to deal with this round of sand disaster first. Ordinary soldiers have to take refuge in the city gates. Only those above the Bone Forging realm can be responsible for garrisoning. I have already sent all the troops here. It’s here... All junior brothers should be careful, as you may be attacked by two or three more sixth-level monsters in this sandstorm. If something goes wrong, retreat to the back of Yunlu Wall for the time being."

Xia Houyan said to everyone.

The biggest function of the Yunlu Wall is not to resist monsters, but to block the incoming sandstorms, so that the rear area always maintains a relatively stable environment.

Once you are in danger in a sandstorm, you can temporarily evacuate to the back of the Yunlu Wall. No matter how fierce the sandstorm is in front, there is a relatively peaceful area under the Yunlu Wall. Even if the monster crosses the Yunlu Wall, it will be lost after coming down. Without the force of the wind and sand, it will become much easier to deal with.

“As long as no seventh-level demon king appears, the sixth-level demon poses little threat to us.”

Chu Jingshu said calmly.

Only Meng Danyun present is slightly weaker, but he is also a being who has entered the Six Fu Realm. Even if he faces two or three large sixth-level demons, he can at least be able to retreat if he cannot defeat them. As for the seventh-level demon king... that is too rare.

"If you encounter a seventh-level demon king, retreat for now. They are very smart and will not easily cross Yunlu Pass."

Xia Houyan said.

At this time, there was an obvious surge in the general pass. Many soldiers were under command to hide in buildings and even passages to temporarily retreat. Those who came to the Yunlu Wall were all those who were above the Bone Forging Realm. The school captain, even the inner disciples of Qixuan Sect, including many deacons were also dispatched.

As the number of people gathered at Zongguan gradually increased, and reinforcements came from all over, the black dust and sand in the distance gradually formed into a tsunami-like sand wave, heading towards Zhongguan. .

Even before the sandstorm hits, many dark shadows are already vaguely visible, all of them are monsters.

Among them, there are even those that look extremely large. They are hidden behind the sandstorm. Their specific appearance cannot be seen clearly. The chaotic and turbulent demonic power is mixed with the power of heaven and earth of the sandstorm. Before approaching the main level, it already gives people a feeling of suffocation. Such a sense of oppression.

But at this time, the hundreds-foot-high Yunlu Pass under your feet seemed to have become an unshakable mountain, giving people a strong sense of support, making it possible to face the surging majesty of heaven and keep up with it. contend.

Standing at the front, Chen Mu stared at the surging sandstorm, and for a moment his mind seemed to be immersed in the world.

 Sandstorm.

 Yunlu Pass.

With the overwhelming sandstorm coming, it was like the collision between heaven and earth, and he stood in the center of the sky and earth, feeling the majesty of heaven on one side and the heavy terrain on the other.

 “This is the universe.”

 He murmured in his heart.
