Chapter 801 Why are we looking for it?
If this is true, it means that Jiange still exists.
But why does Jiange exist in the world? And why does the Jiang family want to find it?
All of these problems gave Jiang Chen a headache.
The only thing that can be confirmed now is that the relationship between Jiange and Yulong Palace is unusual, and they are even hostile forces.
Because of the existence of the Dragon Taming Technique, the Sword Pavilion had to be exposed in advance. I don’t know if it was a coincidence or an expected outcome.
"No matter what, the sword manual must be taken back!"
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Chen looked determined, stretched out his hand to grasp the hilt of the sword, and prepared to draw the sword.
"Are you finally willing to wake up?" Suddenly, a voice sounded.
Jiang Chen was startled and quickly raised his head to look around.
I saw an old man standing in the darkness, with a hunched back, wearing tattered clothes, a head full of white hair, skin wrinkled like bark, and cloudy, lifeless eyes.
"Who are you?" Jiang Chen said nervously.
"It doesn't matter who I am." The old man said softly, "You just need to remember that I am here to help you."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen remained silent and did not refute the old man's words.
He was now alone and had no choice but to be the old man.
"You just crawled out of the coffin?" said the old man.
Jiang Chen nodded. This old man was too strange and what he said was hard for him to understand.
"Then follow me." The old man continued.
"Where are you going?" Jiang Chen asked.
The old man said nothing and turned away.
Looking at his back, Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment and took a step to catch up with him.
The two of them were walking one in front and one behind, heading somewhere.
After about half an hour, they arrived at a swampy area.
The surrounding environment was cold and damp, filled with a rotten smell.
The old man stopped and looked at the scene in front of him, his brows slightly frowned and his expression solemn.
The swamp area is full of various plants and is full of vitality.
However, all the plants were dead.
Their roots have long since withered, and their shriveled branches hang down as if they have lost all vitality.
Jiang Chen followed the old man's line of sight and was stunned.
He found that there was a big tree standing in the middle of the swamp.
The tree canopy is huge, blocking out the sun, like a giant pillar supporting this muddy world.
"Is this the legendary Fusang tree?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, the old man shook his head and said, "No, but almost."
After saying this, he pointed to the hibiscus tree.
Jiang Chen raised his head and stared at the towering Fusang tree. A picture emerged in his mind: in ancient times, the saints were fighting against King Zhou.
A fire burned down King Zhou's palace and the entire world, burning it to ashes, but was blocked by a Fusang tree.
That fire was also the fire of the Fusang tree, and it was extremely powerful.
Finally, a group of people attacked the Fuso tree and put out the fire, preserving the ruins.
"Back then, your ancestors were defeated here, and then they retreated to the northwest corner of the Eastern Continent and built the Sword Pavilion."
The old man spoke slowly, and Jiang Chen listened carefully, thinking that this was Jiange.
"There used to be thirty-six Pavilion Masters in Jian Pavilion, but now there are only you and me left."
The old man continued, “However, the Sword Pavilion still stands here.”
Hearing this, Jiang Chen seemed to be thinking about something. Jiange has a long history and a strong foundation, and it can be passed down for hundreds of years.
"The founder of Jian Ge is called Jian Kuang." said the old man.
"Sword Maniac? Such a familiar name."
Hearing this name, Jiang Chen felt that he had heard this name before, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"So, your last name is Jian as well?"
Jiang Chen noticed the old man's name and asked casually.
The old man smiled and nodded.
"Since you know Jian Ge, you should have heard of the story of 'One Sword Shocks a Beauty', right?"
"I've heard of it." Jiang Chen replied.
It is said that there was an emperor Wu who met a fairy while traveling and got to know her. Later, the two promised to spend their lives together and made love together...
"In the beginning, each of our thirty-six Pavilion Masters traveled the continent alone or sought adventures."
"Until one day, someone told us that there was a sword tomb in the northwest border of Daxia. It was the place where the ancient immortals fell and buried the peerless magic weapons."
"All the leaders of the Sword Pavilion are moving in full force, preparing to head to the northwest border in search of adventures."
"But I didn't expect that when we arrived, there were already corpses everywhere and everything turned into ruins."
"Later, we joined forces to investigate what happened and found out that the murderer was the fairy."
Having said that, the old man looked at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was stunned and said in disbelief: "How is it possible? Although she is beautiful, how could she kill her lover? "
"At that time, the fairy had been controlled by the demons and was causing trouble for the world. The blood in her body was activated and she became even more terrifying. We could hardly do anything to her, so we decided to use a secret method to seal her."
"During the sealing process, an accident occurred. That was your father..."
Having said this, the old man stopped and his eyes fell on Jiang Chen's face.
Jiang Chen remained silent, his heart filled with grief and anger.
"We used the Sword Pavilion secret technique to seal her blood, causing her to fall into a coma, and then threw her into the swamp."
The old man said calmly, "I thought this matter was over, but she woke up again and became even more evil. She killed many lives, even children."
Having said this, the old man's face became even colder.
He went on to say: “Later, we spared no effort to eliminate her, and eventually forced her to this swamp. After she escaped to the swamp, she never appeared again.”
Jiang Chen was silent. He could imagine the misery of the fairy suffering.
"I once tried to enter here, but was blocked by the formation and could not enter."
"Then let me try." Jiang Chen said.
"you?"
The old man looked at him in surprise, obviously thinking he was talking nonsense.
Jiang Chen did not explain anything. The strength he now possessed was enough to resist the oppression of the swamp.
"Be careful."
Seeing that Jiang Chen was determined to go in, the old man gave him a warning.
Soon, the two entered the swamp.
“Hoo-hoo.”
The moment I entered, the sound of wind was piercing, accompanied by a strong fishy smell.
There was no water in this swamp, but sticky mud. Jiang Chen and the old man stepped on the mud, and their whole bodies seemed to be immersed in water.
"hiss!"
Suddenly, Jiang Chen gasped as a tentacle wrapped around his waist and pulled hard.
“Get lost!”
Jiang Chen roared, circulated the internal energy in his body, shattered the tentacles, and then broke free.
At the same time, the mud in the swamp churned, and skeletons emerged and scattered around.
"ah!"
This scene frightened Jiang Chen and he let out a sharp cry.
The old man's face was livid. He had not yet reminded Jiang Chen that this area was dangerous.
"You are scared." The old man said in a low voice.
