Chapter 167 Lone Sword Peak
"Senior Brother Xu, if you need anything in the future, you can always come to Luojian Peak to find me!"
Qi Yue and the two senior brothers and sisters got on the flying boat and left together.
Xu Mu waved his hand, turned around and walked towards Lone Sword Peak.
"Junior Brother Qi, you should avoid interacting with such people in the future, so as not to delay your practice!"
On the flying boat, Senior Brother Fei couldn't help but speak.
"I see!"
Qi Yue nodded without retorting or asking stupidly for the reason.
He is not a three-year-old child, so he naturally understands what the other person means.
However, he had his own criteria for judgment and felt that Xu Mu was not that simple, but neither of them would believe him if he said this, so it would be better not to say it.
…
Xu Mu walked up to Solitary Sword Peak while recalling the news about Solitary Sword Peak.
The title of the master of Gujian Peak is Master Gufeng, a master of the Golden Core stage, and is also well-known in the Tianhe Sect area.
Although the original Gujian Peak was not the most outstanding mountain in the Tianhe Sect, it was still ranked in the upper middle.
The reason why it has become the last one now can be traced back to more than thirty years ago.
At that time, Master Gufeng was very high-spirited and took his Taoist companions with him to participate in the battle to annihilate the Tongyou Sect with Patriarch Tianhe.
As a result, the Taoist companion died, he was seriously injured, and the road was almost destroyed.
From then on, Master Gufeng became depressed and began to drink to drown his sorrows.
Spiritual wine itself is a luxury product in the cultivation world, and what can make people feel in the golden elixir stage is even more valuable. So in just a few years, Master Gufeng exhausted all his savings due to drinking, and even his own magic weapon was worth the price of wine.
debt.
Later, he set his sights on Solitary Sword Peak, and moved all of Solitary Sword Peak without a word. Then he started to target his disciples. Not only did he deceive the disciples of Solitary Sword Peak, but he also seized the money distributed by the sect.
resource.
Under normal circumstances, the Tianhe Sect will allocate fixed resources to the Thirty-six Peaks every ten years, which will be distributed by the peak masters to provide for the training of their disciples.
As a result, Master Gufeng exchanged all these resources for wine.
All these things made the entire Gujian Peak full of complaints.
But the sect has nothing to do with Master Gufeng.
After all, a large part of the reason why Master Gufeng is what he is today is because of the Tianhe Sect, and Master Gufeng has made a lot of achievements in the past. If he is severely punished, it will inevitably make the elders of the sect feel chilled.
Finally, after discussion, a compromise was adopted.
Master Gufeng is still the master of Gujian Peak, but his disciples are free to leave and join the other thirty-fifths, and they can enjoy the same treatment after joining.
Originally, the disciples of Gujian Peak were not willing to leave. Although they all complained, after all, after living for so many years, humans are not grass and trees, and who can be ruthless.
But as time went by, lack of resources and chaotic management soon forced them to make painful choices.
In just a few years, almost all the disciples of Gu Jian Peak have left.
If you are conscientious, you will come back to visit occasionally.
Those with a hard heart are no longer willing to mention that they were once from Lone Sword Peak.
Today, there are only a few low-level disciples in the Qi training period left in the entire Gujian Peak.
As for why they didn't leave, Chi Feiyan's intelligence system couldn't find out.
"With my talent, it is fitting that I was sent to Lone Sword Peak!" Xu Mu couldn't help but laugh at himself.
People in the Tianhe Sect saw that his talent had no value in cultivating it, and investing resources was a complete waste.
In a place with no resources like Gujian Peak, it is indeed the perfect place.
It not only preserves the rules of Tianhe Sect, but also does not waste any resources.
If compared with the Imperial Palace, Lonely Sword Peak is almost the same as Leng Palace.
Xu Mu walked from the foot of the mountain to halfway up the mountain. Along the way, he encountered neither the guarding formation nor the guarding disciples. Apart from the occasional chirping of insects and birds, he felt no trace of humanity, just like a barren mountain.
It is hard to imagine that there would be such a desolate place inside a sect like Tianhe Sect.
"It seems that the rumors are true!"
Xu Mu smiled bitterly.
The start this time is really not that difficult.
After bypassing a mountain col, a magnificent palace appeared in front of us. Judging from the layout, this should be a place for disciples to practice, learn and communicate.
At this time, it was also empty and overgrown with weeds. The red paint in the hall was peeling off, and there was moss and green mold everywhere. There was a thick layer of dust on the floor and tables, and there were even spider webs in the corners.
I don't know whether the spiders are born with different species or are nourished by spiritual energy. Each of them is as big as a fist.
It is simply unbelievable that such a dilapidated scene appears in a sect that is at its peak.
The ancestor of Tianhe has not yet heard the news of his enthronement. In addition, with the newly promoted Nascent Soul stage, one sect and two Nascent Souls can indeed be called its heyday.
Xu Mu didn't study these things too much. He found an obviously trodden road in the weeds and continued walking along it.
After bypassing several palaces and passing through several quiet paths, Xu Mu found an area that was obviously inhabited.
These are several exquisitely designed villas. The flowerbeds at the entrance have obviously been taken care of, and there are all kinds of flowers. Not far from the front of the yard, there are several spiritual fields. Inside are lush spiritual valleys, and next to the spiritual fields is an orchard.
, Xu Mu could see the numerous green fruits hanging on it from a distance, which looked like peach and plum trees.
Xu Mu vaguely saw two figures moving back and forth inside.
When I was considering whether to shout at him, the door to the courtyard opened, and a young man in white clothes who looked to be in his early twenties was arranging his clothes and walking out.
When I saw Xu Mu, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then I reacted and smiled awkwardly.
"You should be Junior Brother Xu, right?"
"Xu Da, I've met senior brother!" Xu Mu said, cupping his hands.
"My name is Li Heng, you can just call me Second Senior Brother!" Li Heng continued: "I originally wanted to go to the Medicine Hall to pick you up, but I didn't expect you to come by yourself!"
"Thank you, Second Senior Brother, for your kindness. I have a friend who happened to be free and sent me here on the way." Xu Mu explained.
"friend?"
Li Heng was slightly surprised.
He didn't expect Xu Mu to be able to make friends in a situation like this, but he didn't ask any more questions.
"Since you are already here, I will arrange a place for you!"
Li Heng took Xu Mu to a corner courtyard, took out the key from his storage bag and opened the door.
Open the door with a key?
Xu Mu felt the loneliness of Gujianfeng again.
Based on the foundation of the Tianhe Sect, even the courtyard where the new disciples live should be protected by formations.
The door lock in front of you can be easily opened even in the early stage of Qi training, but its defense is not as good as the shanty town in Baihefang City.
Although Xu Mu complained in his heart, he didn't say much and followed Li Heng into the courtyard.
The courtyard is in a three-dimensional system, with hanging rooms divided into categories, such as rest rooms, training rooms, alchemy rooms, kitchens, etc. With such a complete layout, it does not look like a place where new disciples live.
"This was originally a place where true disciples could live, but now that there are few people in Gujian Peak, we don't pay so much attention to it. I have already cleaned it for you. See if there is anything missing. I will help you there later.
Purchase from the Utensil Hall!"
The Utensil Hall is the part of the Tianhe Sect where disciples buy and sell things.
Xu Mu looked around several houses and found that all kinds of daily necessities were quite complete. The only bad thing was that these items were all old, but fortunately they were relatively clean.
"There is nothing missing! Thank you very much, senior brother!"
"You're welcome!"
Seeing that Xu Mu was so easy to get along with, the smile on Li Heng's face became a little brighter.
"I'll take you around to familiarize yourself with the environment. When they come back in the evening, I'll help you finish them one by one!"
"Trouble me, senior brother!"
"We are all senior brothers from now on, don't be so polite all the time!"
After spending half a day, Li Heng took Xu Mu to all the places that Solitary Sword Peak could go, giving Xu Mu a new understanding of Solitary Sword Peak's downfall.
To put it simply, except for the small area where they live, all other places have been abandoned.
Not only were there no basic guardian formations, but even the lowest level spirit gathering formations were dug up and sold for money by Master Gu Feng. It is said that he once had the idea of Lone Sword Peak Spiritual Veins, but fortunately, he was promptly discovered by the Tianhe Sect’s senior officials.
