Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 415 A Divine Sword in the North

Light rain in Qiantang.

Xu Xuan felt a little uncomfortable as he walked to the West Lake.

The West Lake rain scene is beautiful once, beautiful twice, but after three times, the mud on the ground becomes annoying.

Second-stage cultivators may remain untouched by worldly affairs, but they will still attract some attention.

You can't exactly say that your Iron Palm Kung Fu has reached such a high level that mosquitoes can't land on it and rain can't get in.

So he reached for the jade pot, intending to pull out a disguise prop: an oil-paper umbrella.

Um... when did it break?
Oh no, this umbrella was a gift from Miss Bai at the Jiangnan Literary Gathering, and I haven't returned it yet. I usually just take it out to shield myself from the rain.

Now that it's broken, what can we do? It's too late to go back to Qiantang Town to find someone to fix it.

Therefore, the first step is to destroy the evidence.

Just as I was about to put the umbrella back in...
Why do you put away your umbrella when it rains?

Good, good, good. If we are destined to meet, we will meet even if we are thousands of miles apart; if we are not, we will not be able to hold hands even if we put away our umbrellas.

Faced with this situation, Xu Xuan sighed inwardly:
Brother Ruoxu, I, your junior brother, must refrain from karmic retribution through speech.

"Though the rain is heavy, it does not nourish grass without roots; though the Tao is vast, it only guides those with affinity."

A very evocative sentence, from the Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch.

Although the Way of Heaven is vast and boundless, its blessings can only extend to those who have the foundation and the affinity.

Bai Suzhen's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she exclaimed, "You are really suited to be a monk!"

He then said, "Give me the umbrella, and I'll fix it for you in a few days."

Xu Xuan coughed; the difference in their cultivation levels was too great.

This woman sees everything clearly and is very difficult to fool.

Turning my head, I noticed that her complexion was much better than last time.

It wasn't that he had plenty of energy and blood, but rather that he had regained his former sense of peace, which made him feel completely relaxed.

Otherwise, the joy or anger of such a powerful demon would cause the spiritual senses of ordinary cultivators to flash like warning lights. Sometimes, being too sensitive is not always a good thing.

"Miss Bai, where do we go to get the sword?"

Yes, I'll take the sword. That's how confident I am when I have a powerful backer.

The strongest being he has ever seen is the Dragon Lord of the Yangtze River, because His realm and aura are completely imperceptible. He is omnipresent on the Yangtze River, and His authority and abilities are simply beyond what the human world can comprehend.

Moreover, the other party seemed to recognize Bai Lian.

This is very troublesome, as Xu Shengfu's background in the martial arts world has been thoroughly investigated.

Secondly, there's the past corpse of the Dragon Subduer, incredibly powerful, capable of killing even those burdened by the great karma of the Heavenly Dao. To put that in perspective, can you believe the protagonist was killed by someone else?

That overwhelming, all-encompassing power left a deep impression on someone.

Third is Lady White Snake. Leaving aside her overflowing magical treasures, I've seen no less than three great Taoist supernatural powers, and her divine water control technique is also unparalleled.

Xu Xuan thought that as long as the Dragon King didn't appear, apart from himself, Master Fahai, who might uphold the Mandate of Heaven to suppress Lady White Snake, she should be invincible.

It's no wonder he had such thoughts; the main reason is that the handsome and powerful big shot on his side is a kind of happiness.

Bai Suzhen, unaware of the shameless thoughts of the man beside her, continued softly:
"Han Guang, Xiao Lian was born in the North, which is more than a thousand miles away from here. Let me take you there."

"It will take about half a day to arrive."

After saying that, he threw out the Chilong Sword and transformed into his original form, then took Xu Xuan and leaped onto the dragon's head, flying north.

The journey was swift and fleeting, reaching an extreme speed. The dragon's shadow hid in the clouds, concealing its presence to avoid disturbing the world.

Although he didn't possess the strange, idealistic state of mind that his senior brother could freely traverse, it was still somewhat outrageous.

In a short while, they arrived over Jianye and prepared to cross the Yangtze River.

Xu Xuan stood atop the dragon's head, filled with boundless pride, knowing he was about to embark on a journey to explore a new map of the north.

The Jiangnan region is basically unchallenged; let's see who can stand against us in the vast north.

The Dragon King of the Yangtze River sensed that someone was speaking arrogantly and looked up.

White Snake and White Lotus?
I saw Bai Lian appear there when the Xin'an River was hanging upside down in the sky last time. I never thought that we would actually know each other. What a wonderful combination.

How did she get involved in such a huge karmic mess?

The Dragon King was surprised. Li Shan went into hiding, and this little snake might suffer a great loss.

The second-generation White Lotus possesses a deeper hidden demonic nature than the first-generation Little Girl, and the ambition she harbors within her is even more terrifying than that of the Vacuum Hometown.

When Dantu first met him, he thought he was an interesting successor, but when Jianye drew his sword, he could tell that this guy was extremely poisonous.

I witnessed the entire process of severing the dragon aura of the five dynasties of Jianye, and every word spoken there signified the collapse of heaven and earth and the raging sea of ​​blood.

This complete overturning of humanity's principles and the laws of nature is even more radical than that of the ancient human race. Their attitude remains one of self-righteousness; they are truly neither human, nor demon, nor monster, but rather a monster.

If immortals or gods were alive and foresaw the emergence of such a demon, they would need the Five Elders of the Five Directions to personally suppress it before they could feel at ease.

Unfortunately, the White Snake is of noble blood and has surpassed many scattered immortals and human immortals in her cultivation so far without opening the Heavenly Gate. But even with such talent, she should not have been subjected to such an intractable calamity.

Tsk tsk, Lishan, the Buddhist community, and the human world are all in complete chaos.

However, it has nothing to do with Him. The bond between the White Snake and the White Lotus is inextricable and cannot be severed. Who knows, a great disaster may befall them in the future.

The two people in the clouds were unaware of the Dragon Lord's extreme evaluation. They continued north and soon came to see another great river.

The Huai River originates at Dafu, flows underground, and appears at Yangkou.

Xu Xuan looked at the Huai River at his feet with some curiosity. The Yangtze River has the Dragon Lord, and the Yunmeng Marsh has the Cloud Lord. What powerful figures are there in the Huai River?
"There should be, but I have never seen the legendary Huai River God."

"Its shape resembles that of a monkey, with a receding nose and a high forehead, a blue body and a white head, golden eyes and snow-white teeth, a neck that can stretch a hundred feet, and strength that surpasses that of nine elephants. It can fight, leap, and run swiftly, and its movements are so light and agile that one cannot see or hear it for long."

“Yu gave it to Tong Lü, but he could not control it; he gave it to Wu Mu You, but he could not control it; he gave it to Geng Chen, but he could control it.”

“The water beast was prone to causing harm, so Yu imprisoned it under Mount Jun, and its name was Wuzhiqi.”

"It is said that the iron chain left by King Yu is at the bottom of the river, but no one has found it to this day."

It is obvious that Bai Suzhen went down the Huai River when she was young, but no clues were found.

Xu Xuan was surprised. Didn't this mean that the Huaiwo Water God might no longer exist?
"No, when the Heavenly Court was still in power, it bestowed the titles of Dragon Gods upon the Four Rivers. Only Lord Changyuan failed to condense the Water God Seal."

"Therefore, everyone assumes that Wuzhiqi is still in the world, and once they have reached a certain level of cultivation, they will not easily set foot in this place."

Bai Suzhen glanced at Xu Xuan as she said this, and then added a sentence.

"Even if you are only at the second realm, don't go. People are different."

These words are a double insult. First, the second realm looked down on my realm, and then doubted my luck because people are different.

All I can say is that Lady White Snake had a really good eye for people.

Continuing north, crossing the Qinling Mountains and the Huai River leads to the Central Plains region.

We passed by one place after another, each steeped in history and legend.

The Chinese civilization has left too many traces on the earth's veins, and Mr. Xu, sitting on the dragon's head, was dazzled by them.
