Chapter 117 The Demonic Tribulation Appears
The sky cleared up after the rain, but it was still gloomy.

Guiyu stood by the Qianyuan River, his face a little pale, looking at the surging river in front of him that seemed to have remained unchanged for thousands of years. Even the small village behind him perfectly overlapped with his memory.

The curling smoke from cooking fires, the laughing and playing children, the barking of dogs...

Everything remains the same as before, the only thing that has changed is people!

Guiyu looked to the side with trance eyes. There seemed to be a little girl crying helplessly to the river. The river breeze blew her hair and also blew away the dust that had settled in her heart for many years.

After standing here for a long time, Guiyu murmured softly: "I thought you had left a long time ago."

At some point, a middle-aged man who was half a head taller than her appeared behind her. Maybe he was there from the beginning, or maybe he came earlier than her.

After the soft murmur, a long silence fell again, just like before.

"Come back to Sword Domain with your father." Looking at the stubborn figure in front of him, Xu Buwen was unable to keep the coldness in his heart.

At this moment, he was no longer the dying man he was in Qingshan Village, but had regained his original appearance. From his clothes to every strand of hair, everything seemed to have been carefully taken care of.

"Go back to the Sword Domain with you? Don't you want to know the secrets of the Dream God Sect?" Guiyu turned around. She couldn't remember the last time she saw her father face to face. It must have been ten years, or maybe even longer.

All the happy memories of her childhood turned into resentment towards her father when her mother jumped into the river. This is also the biggest obsession in her heart.

How could a mother who was just an ordinary person actually commit suicide by jumping into the river in front of her father who was a swordsman known for his speed?
Afterwards, her father arranged for her to join the Mengshen Sect for some secret of the Mengshen Sect.

Secrets, secrets... She is just a tool in her father's hands.

"No need." Xu Buwen said calmly.

"I am from Chongming Realm. I will always be the daughter of a fisherman. My hometown is Fengyu Village on the bank of Qianyuan River. I will not go to any sword domain!" Guiyu shook her head. This small village and this big river are the only place of comfort for her soul.

Before, she had always sealed up her childhood memories, not daring to touch them or recall them, until she walked into the [Seven Emotions and Six Desires Array] on the mountain.

She walked into the formation again and again. She did not do it for cultivation, nor for the so-called improvement of her state of mind, but just to feel the beauty of the past again, even if it was just false!
Because of this, she even sank into it for a time, her will was shaken, and her soul was hurt.

But she was lucky, or perhaps her dead mother was protecting her, and she eventually came out of the endless sinking, walked out of the wall of her heart that she had built, and was no longer confused.

"It's very dangerous for you to continue staying in Chongming Realm. You will be attacked from both realms..."

“But that’s not what I want!!” Guiyu shouted hysterically with tears in her eyes. This was the first time she interrupted her father. At this moment, she was no longer the coward who did not dare to face her inner self during the Ba Xia trial.

Looking at his daughter who had exploded in front of him with a pale face, Xu Buwen sighed softly.

The Seven Emotions Sword Sect emphasizes reaching the extreme of emotions first and then forgetting them. Emotions are just tools to help them gain insights. He had always done very well in the past, and he firmly believed that he could continue in this way, from the Sword Realm to the Lingzhou of the Chongming Realm, and then to Shunzhou and Yuzhou, until he came to the banks of the Qianyuan River.

The best thing for him to do now is to kill her!

As the number one swordsman of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect, his wife and children were nothing more than tools. He had many wives and many children, all of whom died, and their deaths only accumulated "sorrow" and "thoughts" for him.

Killing the person who made him hesitate would allow him to accumulate more emotional power, but...

"What do you want? When a person dies, there is nothing left!!"

"If you live like a zombie, you might as well be dead!"

Xu Buwen looked at his extremely determined daughter, and after a moment his gaze turned to the surging river. It was from here that the woman jumped into the river.

Perhaps he had regretted arranging Guiyu into the Mengshen Sect, so he has been avoiding this place all these years, only looking at Dongzhou from Qingshan Village in the northwest corner of Yuzhou.

Guiyu had not given him any valuable information over the years, and he had never actively asked Guiyu for information. The secrets of the Mengshen Sect...he seemed to be quite interested in them back then.

"You are free now, go after what you want boldly." Xu Buwen tied an antique bronze pendant around Guiyu's waist.

After the father and daughter looked at each other for a moment, Xu Buwen left. No matter what his purpose was, he should return to Jianyu. He knew very well that he had been exposed the moment he met his daughter, but at the moment Chongming Realm wanted Jianyu to "watch the battle" first, and his return was one of the sincerity of the warriors, so he would not be in any danger.

Guiyu who chooses to stay in Chongming Realm will become his biggest weakness, but at the same time, his existence is also the biggest guarantee for Guiyu's "freedom" in Chongming Realm.

As long as Jianyu still holds the advantage, this guarantee can be maintained!
Now he can definitely be regarded as the biggest example and negative example of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect in the past thousand years.

Guiyu was alone, staring at the river in a trance, until the afterglow of the setting sun pierced through the dark clouds in the sky. In the beautiful light of the sky, her martial spirit slowly dissipated, and the plants by the river began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The disciples of Qingteng Palace all cultivate wood-type martial arts. When their martial arts are released, the surrounding plants will naturally be affected.

The martial intent dissipated, and the true qi also dissipated. Then she quickly completed the process of drawing the qi into her body. At this time, she was no longer a warrior, but a cultivator.

Perhaps it was because her state of mind at this moment was extremely in harmony with the Tao, and spiritual energy was rapidly transformed into true energy in her body, which was powerful enough to control the power of martial will to open up a sea of ​​consciousness between her eyebrows, and then quickly transformed into divine consciousness.

However, she did not practice the latest magic inheritance, but like Jiang Bai, she practiced the first edition of the skills written by Jiang Yi.

When she came out of the [Array of Seven Emotions and Six Desires], she found that practicing Taoism was more suitable for her. From now on, she will focus on Taoism!
……

Deep in the mountains north of Qianyuan River, there are many medicinal herbs produced. Many warriors collect herbs in the mountains all year round. Recently, there were rumors that treasures were unearthed in the mountains, attracting more people.

A team of warriors walked carefully into a dark valley, and were suddenly surprised by the scene deep in the valley. It was a low medicinal herb with round emerald leaves and small blue fruits.

"Brother Wen, look, there is a piece of jade leaf fruit here."

"We are lucky. This large area is definitely worth more than 100,000 Blood Qi Pills. Pick them quickly. If we run into other teams, we will be in big trouble."

A group of seven people ran towards the jade leaf fruit excitedly, but when they just started picking them, a large number of fine needles as thin as cow hair flew out from deep inside the jade leaves.

The seven people's attention was focused on the small dark blue fruit in front of them. Except for the leader, the others didn't even have time to react. Dozens of fine needles entered their bodies, and they let out shrill screams. Their skin turned black and developed strange patterns.

Although the leader noticed it, it was too late. He failed to avoid all the needles, and his skin also began to turn black. He couldn't help but groan in pain.

Two disciples dressed in the clothing of the Mengshen Sect rushed out from their hiding place and ended the suffering of the seven people.

"This is a great way to fish!"

"It's really good. However, this is already the third batch in two days. It is indeed the right decision to go down the mountain. Only after going down the mountain can we let go of our hands and feet."

"It's a pity that the quality of these warriors is so poor!"

"As long as there are enough of them, you don't care whether they are good or bad. Just clean them up quickly and don't expose them."

"Senior brother is right."

Unfortunately, while the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!

Two disciples of the Mengshen Sect had just killed someone, and before they could deal with the body, a red treasure umbrella suddenly flew over and opened above their heads, with golden bells tied to the end of the umbrella ribs.

The treasure umbrella turned, and wonderful sounds rang out. The two disciples of the Mengshen Sect were immediately trapped in an illusion. At the same time, incomparably beautiful soul shadows flew out of the treasure umbrella, emitting bursts of heart-stirring laughter.

Those beautiful soul shadows quickly passed through the bodies of the two people. In an instant, their faces turned pale, their pupils were dilated, and their bodies fell heavily into the jade leaf fruit.

Afterwards, the flesh, blood, and remaining souls of the two disciples of the Mengshen Sect and the seven people they had killed before were all devoured by the red umbrella.

Finally, the red umbrella folded and turned into a stream of light flying towards the dense forest in the east.

Such things not only happened in Dongzhou, but also in the twelve states of Chongming Realm. Such killings were happening all the time.
