Chapter 105
The demon cultivator chuckled softly and said, "What a boast."
Being ridiculed by the demon cultivator, 03 remained calm. She raised her hand and blew into her palm. After finishing her meal, she drank some fragrant tea, and her lips and teeth were filled with the aroma of tea. This was enough to show that the demon cultivator was not only strange, but also liked to lie.
But we are still in a hurry.
The moment she lowered her hand, she raised Jiuxiao, who was holding it in her other hand, and instantly attacked the demon cultivator. Seeing her sudden attack, Tan Yue said in horror, "Senior, calm down! She holds the lives of everyone in this city in her hands!"
However, her words of resistance could not keep up with the speed of the 03 sword light. The cold sword energy pounced on the demon cultivator like a roaring tiger. The sword light was like ice, the wind was bone-chilling, and the gloomy dark clouds suddenly dropped with white light.
The snow froze in the cold, then turned into heavy snowflakes that drifted down, instantly covering the world.
The demon cultivator who was pointed at by the sword light of 03 flew up, her face distorted for a moment. She was in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, one level higher than the white-haired cultivator, but the white-haired cultivator's ruthless sword intent made her terrified.
What a domineering sword move, what a reckless momentum!
She wanted to hide her soul in the bodies of the people of Pingjin City as she had done before, but every time she wanted to land, sword lights would come at her. The demon cultivator raised her eyes and saw that the long sword at the side of the white-haired cultivator turned into tens of thousands of swords, pointing directly at her.
Domineering and freehand sword techniques, unfathomable cultivation, unparalleled sharp martial arts, young and beautiful appearance... Why should one person be able to obtain all the good things in this world?
The demon cultivator had a very twisted personality. After only a brief encounter with 03, the jealousy in her heart poured down like a waterfall, making her jealous soul tremble in the white light of ice and snow in this cold winter. She forgot her master's instructions for a moment and just wanted to pull out 03's soul and get into this skin herself to take her place!
Here, 03 asked slowly, "How long do you two want to see each other?"
A snowflake hung on her long, silver-rimmed eyelashes. Her clear pupils turned to the side, her cold gaze falling on Master and Disciple Tan Yue. 03 asked calmly, "Or are you two also accomplices of the demonic cultivators?"
Tan Yue and his apprentice were startled when they heard 03's cold and gentle voice say, "If that's the case, I'll do it together."
"Don't blame me, Fellow Daoist Xi. We'll intercept her right away!" Master Tan Yue shouted, and said to Tan Yue, "Go and look after the people in Gucheng. Fellow Daoist Xi and I will fight the demon cultivator together!"
Tan Yue quickly said, "Yes."
She hurried forward, raised her sword and swept away the thick snow covering the people in the city, then walked through the snow, and helped the unconscious people to a place where they were protected by protective magic weapons.
03 Hovering in the air, looking up, Jiuxiao made a sword flower in her palm. After Tan Yue's master said to take action, she rushed forward without hesitation and used all her strength to fight against the evil cultivator.
The heavy snow fell like a white curtain, with black and gold colliding in it, making a sharp sound like iron clashing. Tan Yue's master cast an attack spell, and with a pale face, stuffed a Yuan Hui Dan into his mouth. He turned to the people floating in the air like they were watching a show and said, "Fellow Daoist, come and lend me a hand!"
His face looked a little bad, and he thought to himself, could it be that she was holding a grudge because he almost misunderstood her as a fellow Taoist just now?
Fortunately, after he spoke, fellow Taoist Xi finally moved.
03 said: "Sword raised."
The thousands of long swords parked behind her hummed simultaneously.
"superior."
A low voice fell, and thousands of silver lights pierced through the snow, the silver light exuding a coldness, and instantly rushed towards the demon cultivator who was fighting with Master Tan Yue. Master Tan Yue felt a chill behind him, and he turned back in horror, his pupils suddenly constricted, only to see thousands of cold rays coming straight towards him, brushing past his hair, and piercing towards the demon cultivator behind him. Before he could relax, the demon cultivator suddenly split, turning into several green smokes to avoid the cold rays and rushing towards him.
"Master, be careful!" Tan Yue shouted, quickly drawing his sword and rushing forward, trying to stop the evil cultivator.
The one who is faster than her is 03.
Her bony fingers gripped the hilt of Jiuxiao's sword, and her white knuckles lightly scratched the red bead on the hilt, and a page of sword techniques was opened in her sea of consciousness - the sword was like a swimming dragon, and it was stunning.
"boom!"
Beneath the sky, towering above Pingjin City, towered a series of icebergs. A vast murderous intent, like ice and snow, blanketed the icebergs. The ice peaks towered coldly into the air. The remnant soul of the demon cultivator who had attacked Master Tan Yue, like firewood, let out a hysterical scream and instantly bounced back.
She looked at 03 in shock and anger, the hatred in her eyes was like a dark and muddy swamp, wishing to swallow 03 up.
03 Raising his hand calmly, the iceberg hanging in the air floated up, blocking the sight of the demon cultivator.
Demon cultivator: “…”
She glanced fearfully at the direction of 03, and suddenly rushed towards the ground, her target still being the people in the city.
"It's senior!" Tan Yue yelled, asking 03 for help, "Hurry up and save him!"
03 He turned around and glanced at Tan Yue indifferently without any movement.
The barrier of the Nascent Soul cultivator was like thin paper in front of the demon cultivator. She was so excited that she smashed the barrier. The hostage was right in front of her. When her scattered soul rushed towards the people of Pingjin City, she suddenly heard two "chirp" sounds in her ears. The fear that shook her soul came over her. The alertness to danger overcame her reason and she rushed forward.
She retreated, but something faster than her appeared in an instant.
A muffled thunder-like sound exploded, and two golden dragons opened their huge mouths, with cold and fierce light flashing in their eyes, and bit off the soul of the demon cultivator without mercy.
"Hiss..." Tan Yue breathed in, goose bumps appeared on her arms, and she murmured, "Dragon..."
But this is not the end. 03 casually swung the long sword, and the iceberg hanging in the air turned into millions of fragments and fell down. Upon closer inspection, those fragments turned out to be millions of ice arrows, attacking the residual soul being chased by the two dragons.
With powerful enemies in front and pursuers behind, the demon cultivator roared: "Damn it!" She turned around abruptly and rushed towards the dumbfounded Tan Yue.
"Disciple, be careful!" Tan Yue's master shouted and rushed over to protect Tan Yue.
03Then he saw the remnant soul mercilessly shattering Master Tan Yue’s sword light and crashing into his heart.
"Master!" Tan Yue's eyes suddenly turned red. She raised her sword but couldn't use it, and the remnant soul took advantage of the opportunity to enter.
"Ah." 03 blinked and thought: This is still very clumsy.
The two dragons that were chasing them swung their tails angrily, knocking Master and Disciple Tan Yue, who were invaded by the residual soul and showing a wild smile, away and crashing into the barrier protecting the city.
Tan Yue spat out a mouthful of blood, clutching her chest, and said to 03 smugly, "If you don't want these two to be killed for no reason, then let me go."
03 thought for a moment and replied irrelevantly: "Your cooking is delicious."
Tan Yue was stunned. Furious, she raised her hand and slapped a stream of spiritual energy towards 03. 03 said calmly, "But you're a little weak. Are you really in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm? I don't believe it."
"Oh, there's one more thing!" 03 said with a smile, "The photo stone I gave you earlier was a lie. I didn't have time to take a picture of you. It was a souvenir my friend gave me during the East Continent Competition!"
"Not only are you weak, you're also a little impatient."
03 Thumbs up: "Useless."
“…”
Tan Yue and her master's faces twisted at the same time, and they glared at 03 fiercely. They thought she had hidden it well during this period, but they didn't expect that she had been seen by this person from beginning to end. Not only was she teased, but she also had to serve him all day long!
Even when she ran away in the end to destroy the evidence, she was deceived by her!
"Go to hell!" the demon cultivator controlling Tan Yue and his apprentice shouted angrily. They suddenly stood up, swung their swords, and flew out of the city without looking back. 03 smiled softly, stepped on the golden dragon's skull, and swept his sword towards the demon cultivator's back.
The silver-white sword light swept across, shattering the two sword lights, and flew towards the demon cultivator again.
Suddenly a light appeared in the sky
A golden light blocked 03's sword, and with a bang, the silver-white sword light dissipated into nothingness. 03 looked over in surprise, only to see the golden collar the demon cultivator had worn on his chest light up. It turned out to be a powerful protective magic weapon, thrown by the demon cultivator to block 03's pursuit.
03 frowned, flying up to catch the falling golden collar. A dragon swam over to catch 03, while another rushed towards Master and Disciple Tan Yue in relentless pursuit. Outside Pingjin City, the veil covering the city suddenly dissipated. Feng Zhen, scowling on the deck, saw Master and Disciple Tan Yue rushing towards them, one after the other, their faces a mixture of shock and anger. Seeing her, their fear deepened. They dropped from the sky like kites, plunging to the earth.
"Elder Zhao!"
Before the two men were smashed into a pulp, Feng Zhen flew over to catch them and brought them back to the deck. Yu Xuefei leaned over, examined their bodies, and said in surprise, "Soul Loss Syndrome?"
"Lost soul?" Feng Zhen stretched out his hand and sent a stream of spiritual power into the spiritual veins of Master Tan Yue and his disciple. After the spiritual power entered their bodies, it was like a stone thrown into the sea, without a single ripple.
The two men looked like they were sleeping, their expressions were calm and their faces were rosy, without any signs of injury.
Yu Xuefei frowned tightly, and after carefully checking again, she said, "It is indeed a case of amnesia, but it is different from ordinary cases of amnesia." After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes, subconsciously took a step back, and took a breath, "This is..."
Feng Zhen looked back and saw a golden dragon staring at the two people on the boat from afar.
"The spirit of the Twin Dragon Secret Realm - is it fellow Daoist?" In Pingjin City, another golden dragon floated up, with 03 holding the Nine Skies on its head. 03 stomped her feet, and the golden dragon's head on her swayed left and right.
The golden dragon near the spirit ship also swayed.
Hello, hello.
“…”
A genuine fellow Taoist.
Everyone on the spirit ship paused. Feng Zhen took out a pillow and quilt from his storage ring and covered the two lost souls with it. He went down to the cabin and drove the spirit ship into Pingjin City.
The golden dragon that was chasing the demon cultivator flew back and said to 03, "Master, I lost the demon soul. She has disappeared since she separated from the human cultivator."
03 nodded and said, "She can't handle a fight, but she's pretty good at hiding and escaping." It turns out she's not useless, she's useless. She looked out of the city a little unhappy, as if she wanted to pull the demon cultivator out of the ground with her eyes.
"Please don't be angry, Master. We have beaten that demon soul half to pieces, and it will be useless even if it escapes. If it weren't for the golden light blocking it, it would never have escaped our pursuit." The golden dragon, sensing 03's mood, persuaded him.
03 did not speak, his face was cold, he looked down at
Collar on the palm.
Under the collar are two birds, a phoenix and a phoenix. The two birds are facing each other with their wings spread out, and their eyes are dotted with red stones. They are vivid and every feather is lifelike.
It's a phoenix.
03's mood improved a little, but only a little.
She put the spoils into her storage ring and nodded to Yu Xuefei and Feng Zhen who flew down from the spirit ship.
A thick layer of snow fell on the ground. After Tan Yue was possessed by the demon cultivator, the barrier she had erected dissipated. The people inside had woken up and were huddled together in panic, like newly hatched chicks in a cage. They looked at the "divine object" above their heads with fear, their lips trembling, unable to utter a word.
At this time, Meng Xiangfei also flew over on a magic weapon, frowning and said, "What happened in Pingjin City? I just went out for an inspection, and when I came back, I found that the north of the city was blocked by an unknown object, and I couldn't enter at all."
03 said: "The demon cultivator is hiding among the people of Pingjin City. She just fought with me. I was unable to completely destroy her. I have reflected on this."
Tong regretted his negligence.
He was clearly a useless demon cultivator, yet he managed to escape. This was due to Tong's overconfidence and underestimation of the enemy. 03 With his eyes lowered, he wrote a thousand-word self-criticism in his mind.
"When did it happen?" Feng Zhen frowned and asked.
The first town they landed in after coming from Wendao Academy was Pingjin City. When they heard 03 say that the demon cultivator had been in Pingjin City from the beginning, Feng Zhen, Yu Xuefei and Meng Xiangfei all showed extremely shocked expressions on their faces.
The astonishment in Meng Xiangfei's eyes was unpretentious. She glanced at the panicked humans on the ground and murmured, "When did you know?"
"If you're talking about the people, it's the first day," 03 said. "If you're asking me about Master Tan Yue, it's today."
Tan Yue and his apprentice? ?
Feng Zhen's body trembled, his eyes filled with disbelief, "Elder Zhao and Tan Yue were also controlled by the demonic cultivators?"
03 nodded hesitantly and told the three of them what had happened today. She said, "The timing and behavior of their appearance were too obvious."
"Are they not awake?" 03 asked.
Feng Zhen shook his head. Yu Xuefei said softly, "Then there's a reason for their soul-loss syndrome. That demon cultivator sounds like a soul cultivator. Fortunately, fellow Daoist Xi has excellent cultivation, and the people in this city are all mortals. That soul cultivator only controlled Master Tan Yue and his disciple. Otherwise..."
Everyone felt a chill run down their spine, suddenly understanding how those disciples had disappeared.
"Soul cultivation..." Meng Xiangfei's face turned pale and she clenched her fingers. Yu Xuefei looked at her doubtfully. Meng Xiangfei noticed Yu Xuefei's probing gaze, and her expression faltered. She said with tears in her eyes,
"How horrible! I was really frightened!"
"But this matter is even stranger..." Feng Zhen said.
How many demon cultivators are there?
Why did he suddenly appear? He had clearly already controlled many cultivators and could have ordered them to attack Pingjin City together, so why did he use the common people to threaten them? Did he want to rely on Master and Disciple Tan Yue to kill Xi Lingren and Meng Xiangfei?
Where did those controlled sect monks go...
With all sorts of doubts in her mind, Yu Xuefei said softly, "From what Senior Sister Xi just said, that demon cultivator wanted to attack her mind first, taking advantage of Senior Sister Xi's unstable mind to confuse and control her. Soul cultivators generally behave in this way."
Meng Xiangfei smiled and said, "Sister Yu, you know a lot. Where did you learn about soul cultivation?" Yu Xuefei said calmly, "I just read about it in a book."
"Oh, I see. Sister Yu is so knowledgeable and well-informed. I really admire her." She giggled.
Yu Xuefei frowned, feeling that there was something sinister in her words. She glanced at Meng Xiangfei coldly and turned to check on the situation of the people.
Feng Zhen was worried about the missing souls of Master and Disciple Tan Yue. He said calmly, "The demon cultivator suffered a great loss at the hands of Senior Sister Xi, and he won't be back for a while. However, demon cultivators are always cunning and have a strong desire for revenge. I will send people to Pingjin City to prevent the demon cultivators from making a comeback and killing innocent people in the city. Senior Sister Xi, I have to ask you to go to Taiyan Sect and tell Master and the others what happened."
03 suddenly asked: "You didn't receive any message from Tan Yue in Taiyan Sect, so you were not summoned by her?" 03 remembered that Tan Yue said that she had sent many messages to Taiyan Sect, but all of them fell on deaf ears.
Feng Zhen quickly shook his head.
"Oh." 03 said, "We took turns to investigate outside the city and returned to the city safely. Unless the demon cultivators set up a formation throughout this area to intercept the letters, Tan Yue would have been controlled by the demon cultivators long ago."
However, Tan Yue's acting skills are much better than those of the people in the city. Could there be other demon cultivators? 03 fell into thought.
Hearing what 03 said, Feng Zhen closed his eyes, his heart was filled with fear. This demon cultivator was very powerful. Tan Yue was in the Nascent Soul stage, and Elder Zhao was in the Divine Realm stage. If even they could be controlled so easily, what about the others!
She said quickly, "This is a matter of great importance. We will return to Taiyan Sect immediately once our replacement arrives."
Anything is fine.
03 didn't care. She only felt disappointed for letting the remaining soul of the demon cultivator go. She went back to the spirit ship with a sad face. She walked slowly and took a look when she passed by a family of three holding a child.
The parents holding the child were about to kneel down and kowtow to the immortal, trembling and not daring to raise their heads.
They looked up with great fear, but when they looked up, there was no shadow of anyone in front of them.
"Don't blame me, don't blame me." 03 muttered as he sat at the table and wrote a letter to Feng Jue. He filled ten pages with a confession letter.
I wrote down twenty pages of adjustment plans to ensure that I would never make a similar mistake next time.
at the same time.
In the barren mountains tens of thousands of meters away from Pingjin City, Wen Chunsheng lit a stick of incense for a roadside deity. As he did so, he asked, "Failed?"
Only a few wisps of her soul remained, fluttering and swaying, as if they would dissipate in the wind in the next second. She said shamefacedly, "Master, please forgive me! I couldn't penetrate Xi Lingren's defenses. She is more powerful than I thought!"
The man with his back to her smiled softly and said softly, "Then you dare to come back?"
The remnant soul lowered its head in fear and was about to speak when Wen Chunsheng beckoned it, and the remnant soul flew uncontrollably into his hand, being pinched in his palm like a ball of thread. Wen Chunsheng closed his eyes, and the remnant soul's memories flooded into his mind.
"Oh, you wasted two of my nails. Was it me who was too impulsive? I released you before you were fully grown?" Wen Chunsheng muttered to himself, playing with the remnant soul. His brows furrowed briefly, then relaxed. He smiled and said, "No, it's just that you're too stupid. I fed you to the Spiritual Transformation Stage, not to make you do something stupid."
As expected, the magic cultivator can only be used casually, but Xi Lingren is more difficult to deal with than he imagined. However, if such an outstanding talent is in his hands, it will be worth it no matter how much waste is wasted.
Wen Chunsheng curled up the corners of his mouth, looked at the trembling remnant soul in his palm, and whispered: "Since you delivered the thing to her and it was not exposed..." The lingering sound from his mouth dissipated in the screams of the remnant soul. Wen Chunsheng moved his fingers, and the remnant soul in his palm shattered instantly, and two golden fragments slowly fell into his palm.
"The jade pendant—" Wen Chunsheng gently collected the fragments, looked towards Pingjin City, and muttered to himself, "Xi Lingren, where did you hide it?"
03 After sadly writing the thirty-page "Pingjincheng Accident Report", when she put down her pen with an "ouch", Yu Xuefei knocked on the door.
"Senior Sister, I have checked all the people in the city. They don't have the same soul-losing disease as Master and Disciple Tan Yue. They just caught a cold. I asked someone to boil some medicinal soup and distribute it. They will be fine after drinking it in two days." Yu Xuefei said in a gentle voice.
03Take out the teapot to boil tea, and invite Yu Xuefei to drink tea in a formal manner.
Yu Xuefei looked at her serious actions and remembered that when she went to Mianfengtai for a medical consultation, Palace Master Feng made tea in the same way, even the steps were exactly the same. Yu Xuefei couldn't help but smile, but when she thought of what happened in Zhongzhou, her smile gradually faded.
"It has been confirmed that it was the demon cultivators who caused the trouble, but during this period of time
"In Zhongzhou, it was only you, Senior Sister, who fought against the demon cultivator and defeated her completely." Yu Xuefei lowered her voice and said to 03, "After I went to Taiyan Sect, I found that there are thousands of sects in the five continents, but only half of them responded to the Taiyan Sect Master's orders. Some even don't take the demon cultivators seriously. It's frustrating."
03 Nods, this is the plot, you have to be slapped in the face to feel the pain.
"But Senior Sister, how did you discover that something was wrong with the people of Pingjin City?" Yu Xuefei asked.
You asked the correct question!
03 put down the teacup and said seriously: "Their characters are too uniform, the characters are templated, and they are very polite and speak in an organized manner!"
The scholarly aristocrats are one thing, but the illiterate common people who can fry a goose, the uneducated shop owner selling buns on the street, and the chef in the restaurant - they are all the same.
"The character setting doesn't match the setting, and this demon cultivator is not proficient in the business." 03 criticized. If it was a soul-transmigrating host she was tutoring, she would never make such a principled mistake! If you want to reveal your true nature, you have to do it slowly.
"You should understand, right?" 03 looked at Yu Xuefei with a sincere expression.
Yu Xuefei understood, even understood why 03 asked her that. She pursed her lips, took out a copy of "New Records of Sword Seeking Phoenix" from her storage ring and placed it on the table. She glanced at 03 and smiled slightly, saying, "I wrote this while traveling on the spirit ship. I'm giving it to my senior sister in the department."
For her?
03 quickly said thank you, opened it for a quick scan, put it back, and said, "I've read it!"
"?" Yu Xuefei was stunned for a moment, thinking that 03 was politely rejecting her. She smiled and said, "Once a gift has been given, there's no reason to take it back. Besides, after today, I have a new idea. You say I can ask Xi Lingxian to exchange souls with Huangnu. Isn't that quite interesting?"
Wow, Yu Xuefei is truly a qualified storyteller, a rare talent in the world! Without storytellers, how can we complete quests? 03 expressed deep respect for Yu Xuefei and introduced many of the world settings she experienced during her quests. In addition to soul transformation, he also solemnly introduced rebirth, time travel, past lives, and reunions.
Yu Xuefei benefited a lot and her eyes lit up as she listened.
"If you need anything, you can always come to me." 03 offered tea to Yu Xuefei again, thinking that perhaps the stories she wrote had already been collected and recorded in the mission hall, and one day, a bird of unknown color would select them and enter to carry out the mission.
That’s really good!
Yu Xuefei drank a sip of tea, looked at 03 with a satisfied face, and guessed in her heart, and couldn't help asking: "Senior sister, what do you think of the Western and Eastern
Lingxian and Huangnu, do you have any ideas?"
03 Blinking, not knowing why Yu Xuefei asked, she looked at the expectant expression on Yu Xuefei's face and said, "I, respect!"
Great respect!
The system respects every story and all the characters in the story!
"...Okay." Yu Xuefei understood: the senior sister in the department didn't understand.
She put down her teacup, stood up, and said with a smile, "Senior Sister, you've worked very hard today fighting off the demon cultivators. Rest soon. If you feel unwell, you can come to me. Of course, I hope you never have to come to me for any illness."
What a wonderful blessing!
The system sighed and thanked Yu Xuefei.
After Yu Xuefei left, she returned to her desk and put the love letter, which was thicker than ever before, into her system backpack. Before leaving, 03 thought for a moment and decided to put the script given by Yu Xuefei in as well.
Feng Jue likes reading storybooks the most, so she wants to ask Feng Jue to read storybooks!
Giving gifts to someone you like is the most common way to pursue someone. She wrote a love letter and gave gifts to Feng Jue, and Feng Jue quickly fell in love with her. It really makes sense!
The author has something to say
Work Log
Main system, why is it that even at this stage in our development, our scanning function cannot penetrate objects? This is not in line with the technological capabilities of us high-dimensional creatures. Main system, please reflect on this!
The main system replied: You have never mentioned this shortcoming before. Did you suffer any loss during the execution of the mission?
