The young Taoist played the zither with a calm mind, but the sounds from his fingers were melodious, like waves sweeping over the Cangshan Mountains. For a moment, the Great Sage Green Lion closed his eyes and listened to the music. Even the woman who looked like a noble lady became quiet, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She did not say anything, but just closed her eyes and listened to the music. After the song was over, no one chatted for a long time.
The woman exclaimed: "Not bad, very good."
"I didn't expect there would be such a good musician in the outside world. It really exceeded my expectations."
"How about leaving Qinyin Pavilion and coming to my place with your little maid? If you have nothing to do, just play a piece of music for me in a few days. I will give you all the other magic weapons and elixirs. At least I can guarantee you a foundation of becoming an immortal with three flowers gathered at the top of your head."
Si You said gently, "Is this girl coming to look for someone from my Qin Yin Pavilion now?"
Her reputation among the demon clan seems to be really high.
The woman, who was somewhat willful in her behavior, only smiled slightly at Si You's ulterior motives and said, "It's my fault. I will drink a cup as punishment to make amends for Miss Si You." The Great Sage Green Lion opened his eyes and sighed, "What a beautiful sound of the zither. I have traveled around for thousands of years and rarely heard music comparable to this."
"That is, five thousand years ago, I once fought against a swordsman named Yun Zhiyi. His wife played a bamboo flute with a clear and melodious sound."
"Can it be compared with you?"
The woman dressed as a man raised her eyes slightly, as if thinking: "Yun Zhiyi?"
"Oh... is it him?"
"You fought with them before?"
The Great Sage of the Green Lion laughed and said, "Yes, back then, I was at a similar realm to him, both of us were in the so-called immortal realm of the Taoist sect. The battle lasted for a day and a night. He collapsed a mountain after being hit by my punch, and I was pierced through the chest by his sword. However, my lion clan has strong blood and qi, so it was unwise for him to trade one for one with me."
"It was difficult for him to hold the sword, but I could still kill him. It was just that his wife was pregnant at the time and came here because of a heart attack."
"I saw that she was almost giving birth, so I stopped beating her."
The woman smiled and said, "You are kind and gentle to women."
The Great Sage of the Green Lion said calmly, "Be kind to women? Wrong."
"A real man exists between heaven and earth. No matter what he does, he must be sincere."
"I can bear it whether you do good or evil."
"But I'm not interested in fighting with someone like this."
"But she rushed here in such a hurry that she eventually had a miscarriage. After that, when she was weak from giving birth, someone attacked her and she nearly died. She was sealed in the Nine Heavens Mysterious Ice, which froze all her changes. That's how she survived. It's a pity."
When the Great Sage Qingshi talked about the past, he felt a deep regret. He looked at Qi Wuhuo and said, "Master Wuhen, what a wonderful sound of your zither. When a group of heroes come to perform the ritual in a month, I will ask you to play the zither for me. By then, all my enemies and friends will come. In these ten thousand years, I have made so many friends and enemies that I cannot even count them all."
"Let's settle all the grudges together."
He sighed calmly, then took out something, raised his hand slightly, and sent it to Qi Wuhuo with a gentle breath.
It was a jade bottle, which exuded a heavy aura. He said, "Although the blood aura of this little girl has not yet fully manifested, it can still be seen by those with high cultivation and those who have practiced certain secret methods. I see that you have a good relationship and should not want to separate. This elixir is something I accidentally obtained more than a thousand years ago."
"It can help suppress the aura and restrain the bloodline."
"In addition, it can also unlock your own potential. Today, I'm grateful for your playing the piano. This is for you."
"I hope I can save you some trouble."
Qi Wuhuo said: "This thing is too valuable."
The Great Sage of the Blue Lion laughed loudly: "Valuable? This thing is valuable in the hands of a useful person, but it is of no use to me. It is enough to be able to exchange it for such good piano music. However, I have already bought your piano music in a month, so this thing is considered as an advance payment."
He waved his hand, and the object fell into the palm of the young Taoist. Qi Wuhuo was well versed in the art of alchemy and could sense the effect of this object.
There are also fine words on the pill bottle, which contain the recipe of the pill.
The woman who disguised herself as a man and called herself Huang Yao said:
"It's rare to hear such piano music. I think the scenery is even more beautiful."
"At the dinner party tonight, let Master Wuhen stay and play the piano for you."
So the Great Sage Green Lion invited Qi Wuhuo, and there was no reason for him to refuse. The Great Sage Green Lion invited him to go take a walk somewhere else, or enjoy the scenery, or just sit and relax. The young Taoist knew that they must have other things to talk about, and he didn't want to stay here any longer, so he went down the mountain with Siyou and Xiao Pengcao.
There are members of the Blue Lion Clan who lead them to enjoy the scenery in this holy land of the Blue Lion Clan.
However, Qi Wuhuo gradually felt that the feeling of disharmony under the scenery here became more and more obvious. While walking, he silently calculated in his mind. With the "foundation" of the formation and strange gate taught by Taoist Qingyu, he noticed the abnormality. He continued to deduce and with the help of the innate Bagua method of the Tai Shang lineage, he could perceive the rest.
This holy land is a formation.
But since they are a clan of great saints, it is natural for them to have formations.
But Qi Wuhuo felt something was wrong, because ordinary defensive formations were outward facing, but this formation gathered strength and then gathered it to one point. Rather than a defensive formation, it was more like...
Qi Wuhuo had a guess in his heart.
He made up his mind and said softly, "Senior Siyou."
Qi Wuhuo didn't need to say anything more. The white-haired woman had already understood. She looked at the Green Lion Clan monk on the side and said with a smile, "I am a little tired after seeing the Great Sage earlier. I wonder if you can find a place for us to rest?"
"Oh, of course, of course you can!"
The cultivator of the Green Lion Clan was a little nervous. He took Qi Wuhuo and the others to a small courtyard located on the side of a secluded valley in the mountains and said, "The Great Sage has instructed that the three of you are honored guests and should be treated well. Please rest here for a while. If you need anything, just make a spell to send a message."
So he looked at Siyou, who had a beautiful appearance and extraordinary temperament, for a few more times before leaving reluctantly.
Siyou closed the door, then came back to her senses and smiled, motioning for him to speak.
Qi Wuhuo said silently: "I want to go out and take a look."
Siyou understood his lip language and was a little surprised. She looked at Qi Wuhuo, without questioning anything, and just nodded slightly.
Qi Wuhuo estimated the time slightly and said silently: "I will be back in one stick of incense."
Now the Green Lion Great Sage and the guest were talking about something. They blocked the inside and outside, and this was Qi Wuhuo's safe time.
The young Taoist plucked a hair, blew on it, and transformed into a zither player. Si You was surprised, then pursed her lips and smiled, stretched out her hand and handed a wisp of earthly immortal qi to Qi Wuhuo. When the young Taoist accepted this qi, he suddenly sensed the life span of this woman in front of him, who was still stunningly beautiful even though she was getting old.
Even though her body still had tremendous Qi, it was still strong.
But after the Three Flowers gather at the top of the head, the Qi enters the soul, and the wounds of the physical body caused by swords and weapons are no longer fatal.
Yang Shen's injuries and old age illness are terrifying, so there are eight difficulties. Now Si You's Yuan Shen's lifespan has reached its limit, just like when Qi Wuhuo first met Hei Wuchang, the great immortal official of the Heavenly Court was dragged away by Hei Wuchang. Si You saw the slight shock and reluctance in the eyes of the young Taoist priest, smiled and patted the young Taoist priest's palm, saying: "Life and death are determined by fate, there is no need to do this."
"It's my own fault that I can't overcome the eight difficulties."
"My life span is almost over. I only have these ten days left... If I can help you, it will be enough to repay the favor from six thousand years ago. Go..."
Qi Wuhuo nodded and rubbed Xiao Pengcao's head. The latter seemed to know that Qi Wuhuo was not going to sell her, so she felt relieved. The young Taoist priest made a sleight of hand and secretly used the method of concealing the breath of the Great Daoist. He shook his body and changed into a bug and flew out of the open window.
The perspective of insects is really different from that of humans.
The young Taoist deduced the direction and secretly grasped the nodes of the formation, but he felt a little strange. Such a complete and huge formation, which should have been perfect, actually had tiny cracks appearing. But at this time, he seemed to hear the words that Taoist Qingyu used to say.
Everything changes, nothing is perfect, only the easy and the uneasy are not easy.
Easy means change.
And within its changes lies the flaw.
The insect transformed by Qi Wuhuo found the flaw. Although it was obscured by thousands of clouds and mists, the method of changing the clouds and mists was not as good as the magic tricks of the Yunqin Society. The young Taoist soon saw the flaw and flew into it following the changes in the formation. In an instant, the scenery in front of him changed dramatically. There were two beings with lion heads and human bodies with their eyes closed in front.
The aura in his body has already gathered at the top of his head.
A level higher than Qi Wuhuo.
Because the demon kings at the level of earthly immortals are all powerful local tyrants with extremely high reputations, they are easy to be targeted and cannot disappear for too long.
Therefore, the one guarding the formation is the demon fairy with three flowers gathered at the top of the head.
Qi Wuhuo became more and more resolute in his judgment, and he turned into a bug and flew over silently. Although his cultivation level was only that of a real person, his method of concealing his breath was extremely advanced. He slipped past quietly without being noticed by the two demon fairies, and then entered the depths of this place. There was brilliant starlight falling, magnificent and graceful, as if the legendary mythological era had come again.
Qi Wuhuo flew high and caught a glimpse of the scenery in front of him. His expression changed slightly.
“This is… a ritual!!!”
Could it be that the Great Sage Green Lion did not make a breakthrough?
It was because the sacred place of the Blue Lion Clan was the ritual of breakthrough. He stood on this ritual and had the appearance of an incomparably powerful Great Sage. The reason why such a powerful formation had problems was because of the previous battle with the leader of the mountain gods and earth gods in Jinzhou, who was named the Great Emperor of Dongyue. That huge force flowed from this place and impacted the formation itself, causing it to temporarily deviate and have flaws? !
"Ritual..."
Qi Wuhuo suddenly felt a murderous intent emerging, which forced the young Taoist's transformed body to return to its original state.
He directly transformed into the appearance of the young Taoist priest, and the Qi passed to him by Siyou rose up. The opponent seemed to be suppressing his strength, not wanting to expose the movement here, and only used the strength of capturing a real person, so this move was avoided by the young man. Qi Wuhuo stared at him and was shocked to see the Dongyue Emperor who was supposed to be dead appear here.
!!!!!!!
The two sides looked at each other, wary and puzzled, with thousands of thoughts rising in their minds.
Qi Wuhuo saw that there was a ritual formation under his feet. His mind raced and he instantly determined the current situation. He said, "Fake death... No..."
"Knowing that he was no match for the current Great Sage Green Lion, he deceived the Great Sage at the cost of his own Dharma body's true death, and then used a spiritual light of his soul to escape into the formation?!"
"This is so crazy..."
Emperor Dongyue stared at Qi Wuhuo with his tiger eyes. After a long time, he seemed to have suppressed his hostility and his expression became cheerful and heroic again. He said, "You are a Taoist, not a monster. What are you doing here? It seems that you also want to destroy the ritual formation of the green lion?"
"I was scared to death. I thought I had paid 90% of my soul and still couldn't fool him."
The young Taoist suddenly thought of the scene when the Great Emperor Dongyue made his final move, disregarding casualties and killing both humans and monsters into dust. His pupils contracted, and he instantly concluded in his heart that the Great Emperor Dongyue was at a dead end, and would do anything to achieve his goal.
Now that he was here and he couldn't decide whether he was an enemy, a friend or a spy, as a tyrant, he had only one way to deal with it.
kill!
Qi Wuhuo waved his right hand and, borrowing Siyou's earthly immortal energy, moved extremely quickly.
The Earth God Token appeared in front of him.
The fist stopped in front of Qi Wuhuo, murderous intent was in the air, but he abruptly stopped. The remaining soul of Emperor Dongyue was trembling violently, but he looked at the token of the young Taoist in disbelief, sensing the pure and incomparable aura of the earth god, and murmured: "You are... the messenger sent by the queen?!"
The young Taoist's back was already wet with cold sweat as he looked at the Emperor Dong Yue in front of him.
I'm not sure whether his murderous intent and hostility have all dissipated, and whether he completely believes in himself.
Then he revealed a wisp of his spiritual energy and said softly:
"Qi Wuhuo, um, the Majesty's 'Commander'."
The voice paused and said:
“I’m from Jinzhou.”
So the murderous intent and remaining hostility of Emperor Dongyue finally dissipated completely when he heard the three words "Jinzhou people".
Only sadness remains.
The chief of the earth gods of Jinzhou put down his hand, his eyes filled with deep sorrow, and he said softly:
"It's 'you'..."
People from Jinzhou.
