The Sword Spirit was in front and Lou Xiaoyi was at the back, one in front and one in back.
If the one in front was a human, like Senior Brother Xi Zhao, he would need to ensure the person's escape route and side. However, the one in front was the Sword Spirit. This thing didn't have a physical body, so he didn't need to care too much about how to protect it. The most important thing was to maintain the strength of the attack so that the two of them could move forward quickly enough so that they wouldn't be surrounded by the slow-moving zombies.
At the same time, he hoped that the Sword Spirit knew what was good for it and would kill through the zombies and enter the main road on the other side.
The Sword Spirit's attack was indeed sharp, and every time it attacked without hesitation. Lou Xiaoyi's responsibility was to clean up the flanks. This strategy allowed them to move quickly at the beginning, but as they approached the central area, there were more and more zombies and they became more and more concentrated, so their speed slowed down.
A radius of nearly a hundred miles was not a distance for a practitioner, but for him, it was a long journey of death. Even if he rushed to the central area, he still had to cover a distance of fifty miles. Usually, it would take a lot of time to run this distance, not to mention now that he had to deal with the zombies that had been blown up and were slowly moving towards them.
He also finally realized that the so-called hilly area was actually not a hill, but a cave that was half buried and half exposed. There were zombies continuously crawling out from inside. This was a zombie community!
What was the Sword Spirit's purpose? Was it purely for the sake of killing? He began to have doubts in his heart!
At the beginning, they only had to face one or two zombies, but later on, there were four or five zombies. When they rushed out more than thirty miles, there were always dozens of zombies entangling with them. If they couldn't deal with them quickly, there would be more zombies surrounding them!
It was already impossible to get off the tiger! At this time, Lou Xiaoyi actually calmed down and rushed forward wholeheartedly. This was the most basic quality of a Swordsman. Only by having no distractions could one focus on killing the enemy!
The Sword Spirit became more and more ferocious. Wherever the sword flashed, there were hundreds of rays of brilliance. One must know that this was a sealed Sword Spirit, so it was somewhat inconceivable for it to do this!
Lou Xiaoyi was already side by side with it. There was no need to care about the back. If the zombies behind them surrounded them, they would definitely die today! He could only force his way forward!
How did he force himself to this point? He was also very curious! It was as if the Sword Spirit had a strange charm. That kind of loyalty to the sword to the point of death had moved him!
Higher level zombies began to appear. Their bodies were tougher, their reactions more agile, and their strength more powerful. Lou Xiaoyi wasn't sure how the zombies here were categorized, but he didn't really care.
Both swords were condensed from sword spirits. However, one of them was illusory and needed to be supplied with energy, while the other was real. As long as the owner had the strength, it would never be damaged. This was a great advantage in battle. Wherever the sword went, it was invincible.
He finally saw a huge cave in the direction of the Sword Spirit, but he wasn't sure if the Sword Spirit would just pass by it or if it had other intentions. This was a crazy sword spirit. One could only imagine what kind of person its original owner was.
But at this moment, the sword blade condensed by the Sword Spirit had a slight change, as if it had shrunk by half an inch! Although the change was small, it didn't escape Lou Xiaoyi's observation. He knew that the Sword Spirit was a little weak. At this time, of course, he should step forward bravely.
He took the initiative to take most of the pressure, and the sword light in his hand burst out with a bright light. The last time he fought so hard was in the Sword Tao stele. He didn't expect that this time, he would fight with his mortal body!
The world was unpredictable, and it was really unpredictable. The most dangerous battle after reaching the Primordial Spirit was not against the Yang Spirit, but against a group of magic objects that had lost their masters!
The last part of the road was opened up by Lou Xiaoyi. Finally, he was close to the huge cave! When he was still hesitating whether to step over the hill and rush out of the encirclement, or something else, the Sword Spirit beside him suddenly let out a sword cry. The sword light soared again, and it plunged into the cave!
In a flash, Lou Xiaoyi didn't have time to think carefully. He jumped in, because he believed that a Sword Spirit of more than ten thousand years would not choose such a brainless death!
There must be a reason!
As soon as he entered the cave, he immediately seemed to be in another space. The zombies outside jumped around the cave entrance, but didn't dare to follow in, as if there was something here that made them extremely afraid.
This was an ancient battlefield! Blood-stained banners, broken swords, scattered armor, and endless corpses! From time to time, an arm stretched out from the soil, and then a broken zombie slowly crawled out!
It was the inexplicable ancient battlefield space that could produce zombies that Fu Xi had mentioned! However, they were just speculating, and Lou Xiaoyi saw it with his own eyes!
The Sword Spirit quickly swayed to the center of the battlefield. There was nothing here that could stop the two of them. Most of the newly crawling zombies couldn't even stand steadily, let alone fight.
Lou Xiaoyi followed closely behind, and finally found the goal of the Sword Spirit's adventure!
In the center of the battlefield, countless bones were piled up under the war flag, and a huge corpse lotus was in full bloom!
There were strange lotuses in the universe, and there was no envy for immortals! The three flowers didn't gather at the crown, and the five flowers didn't gather at the origin!
This poem was talking about the eight most special lotuses in the universe. They were recognized by both Buddhism and Taoism as good things, and great opportunities. Among them, Buddhism was the most important.
The lotus was the saint of flowers, symbolizing purity, elegance, tranquility, and transcendence.
The lotus was pure and untainted by dirt, symbolizing Buddha and Bodhisattva's transcendence from the mortal world, and the four elements were all empty.
The lotus would not die, and it would bloom again in the next year, symbolizing that the soul of the dead would not be destroyed, and it would continue to be reincarnated.
Buddhism had eight auspicious treasures: the Precious Umbrella, the Double Fish, the Precious Vase, the Lotus, the White Conch, the Ruyi Scepter, the Precious Banner, and the Golden Wheel. However, Buddha placed the lotus in the most noble position.
Due to the sacred meaning of the lotus in Buddhism, the Buddhist scriptures called the Buddhist holy flower "lotus", the Buddhist kingdom "lotus world", the kasaya "lotus clothes", the monk's mudra "lotus palms", and even Buddha was called the "lotus prince".
The lotus was the only one among the hundreds of flowers that could coexist with a flower, a fruit (lotus root), and a seed (lotus seed). It symbolized the coexistence of the "three bodies" of Buddha: Dharmakaya, Sambhogakaya, and Nirmanakaya.
The lotus had five colors: white, green, red, purple, and yellow, and it was called the "five heavenly flowers". Among them, white and green were the most popular. It was called the Five Non-Chaoyuan.
In other words, if one could possess any of the five colored lotuses, he would have the ability similar to that of an immortal! Of course, the possession here was not something that could be obtained by luck, but by condensing one's own power. It also required a lot of effort, and it was called the Lotus Way. It was a very special branch of Buddhism, and it was not something that ordinary monks could hope for.
It was a disguised way to become an immortal. Of course, Lou Xiaoyi had only heard of it. At his current level, he could not fully understand these things!
