Chapter 309 Lin Du was very moved and confirmed the mastermind behind the scenes
The winter in the Supreme Sect is exceptionally long. Although the sect can use formations to isolate the bitter cold and fix the change of seasons like a forbidden area, the Supreme Sect adheres to the principle of following the laws of nature, so except for the medicine fields, everywhere else is covered with flying snow, so much that it seems as if the north wind has shattered the world.
Han Yue Lingtuan was beside the glass lamp, not wanting to get any closer. The cold wind was howling outside the window, and Lin Du inside the window was also feeling cold.
The snow was so heavy that it broke the branches and blocked out the moonlight. It could only sit in a circle and watch Lin Du calculate array formations to relieve its boredom.
Lin Du's handwriting is very elegant, but when she gets busy, it's really not the same thing, as if she has a split personality. The messy circles and abbreviations on the draft paper and the lines on the serious booklet are pleasing to the eye. Although Han Yueling can't understand it, she still likes to watch her draw.
One fifth of the thick pile of formation books had been cleared out in just a few months.
Lin Du was so absorbed in calculations that he did not even notice that the inkstone was empty.
Although Chu Guanmeng has no hands or feet, he is still capable of grinding ink.
Chu Guanmeng did not stop until the bell rang.
Lin Du stopped and said, "Let's go."
Chu Guanmeng was a white ball holding a black ink strip, "Ah?"
"No one shall disobey the sect's decree," Lin Du said, and he took out a letter from under a pile of straw papers. "Please burn it for me."
Chu Guanmeng swallowed it down in one gulp, "Okay."
Lin Du:?
She looked at the normal Tuanzi silently and said, "Come up."
"Where to go? I have no hands or feet, I can't go up." Chu Guanmeng felt aggrieved.
"If you use a little moonlight power, you can grow arms and legs, but you still don't want to." Lin Du stretched out his hand to hold it.
The white ball jumped up obediently, coiled itself into a circle, and entangled itself with the red rope indistinguishable from itself.
Lin Du didn't mind the fur rubbing against his wrist. He just pulled up his sleeve, collected the things, and left.
Feng Chao was talking when she arrived.
"This time the evil demons are more powerful, and ordinary monks may not be able to deal with them, so Queen Ju Yuan asked you two to bring your disciples with you."
Lin Du frowned slightly, "What kind of evil demon is so powerful?"
"There is a report from the court that there is a small demonic tide in the northwest border." Feng Chao said and looked at Lin Du, "Haven't you been obsessed with formations these days? I didn't plan to call you, are you going too?"
Lin Du glanced at the people in the room and felt something was a little strange. "Is the demonic tide starting now?"
If there was something unusual in the demon world, Hu You would not have failed to tell her.
Lin Du showed no sign of it, but his mind had already figured out the news from the demon world.
Hu You recently sent a message that the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm killed a leader and also killed an elder. It is said that he thought that the elder was the culprit who led people into the origin of demonic energy.
Although no one knows why the Demon Lord wanted to kill the culprit, the fact is that he killed the wrong person. The elder died, but more evil demons who retained their sanity continued to appear.
Lin Du was quite calm. If it was Wen Fu, it would not be surprising. Even if one puppet clone was killed, there were still countless puppet clones. Or simply being framed was not a strange thing.
Both good and evil exist and we offend both, which is very scary.
What surprised her was that the Demon Lord Qianyu was actually played around by Wen Fu. He first became the eighth elder beside him, but was exposed because of the Zhongzhou Competition. After that, he changed his identity and continued to hide in the demon world and even beside the Demon Lord.
Lin Du felt ashamed of himself for not being able to match such abilities.
However, there are still two things that Lin Du doesn't understand. One is why Qi Zhen, who has been in the sect all this time, would appear in the Demon World; the other is Wen Fu's true purpose and whereabouts.
The former was easy, it was nothing more than a substitute or a technique. As for the latter, Lin Du had no way, but every moment he wanted to dig three feet into the ground and chop him up in front of the ancestral temple of the Supreme Sect.
It was an accident and misfortune for Wen Fu to fall into the Lanju Realm and become like that that day, but everything he did after that was pure evil.
Now that the demonic tide has come suddenly, is it the Demon Lord or Wen Fu who is behind it?
"Uncle Junior Master?"
Lin Du came back to her senses, looked at Ni Jinxuan who called her, and responded, "What's wrong?"
Ni Jinxuan shook her head. "It's okay. The head master said that you will take care of the rest. Is Qi Zhen going too?"
Lin Du's eyes fell lightly on Qi Zhen, and then he smiled suddenly, "My little nephew's cultivation is still shallow..."
"Uncle Master! I can do it! My mission in this life is to kill evil spirits and protect ordinary people. If I don't go this time, I won't be able to practice in the sect with peace of mind and will not make any progress."
Qi Zhen's words were earnest, and Lin Du was deeply moved. He confirmed who was the mastermind behind this demonic tide.
In all likelihood, that's the one.
"Okay, let's go together." Lin Du agreed very readily.
As she spoke, she first took a stack of talismans from Feng Chao and distributed them to several of her fellow disciples. She then asked each of them to prepare the things they needed, and then went to the inner treasury to withdraw the things they had reported, and then she set off.
The group hadn't been together for a long time, and at first they were chattering all over the place, but later, even though Cang had a sullen look on his face that was colder than Lin Du's spiritual power, he couldn't freeze everyone's enthusiasm.
But when they really reached the border, everyone became quiet without Hou Cang and Ju Yuan talking.
This was the first time most of them had ever seen a demonic tide.
The valley in the distance was filled with densely packed monsters. Looking down from above, they looked like swarms of black poisonous insects, surging stickily, with demonic energy swirling as they moved. Even though they were far away, the northwest wind had already blown the demonic energy close to them.
"Put on a mask." Xia Tian ordered without saying a word.
Everyone in the group put on masks in unison, even Qi Zhen was perfunctorily given an old-fashioned mask that Yuan Ye had retired who knows how many years ago, except Hou Cang and Ju Yuan.
High-level cultivators are not afraid of this consumption of demonic energy, but under the influence of Lin Du, the 100th generation disciples of the Supreme Sect will provide adequate protection no matter what.
The original form of the evil demon is much larger than that of a human. Lin Du narrowed his eyes and said, "We are not far from the border of Zhongzhou. Is there any magician to reinforce the city gate?"
"I think other sects have also received the message, so there should be some." Ju Yuan said, looking at the little junior sister, "But there are only so many people in our Wushang Sect, and these evil demons can't even reach the city gate."
Ju Yuan is heartless and really believes so.
Hou Cang said, "Not necessarily. The demonic tide is endless. What you can see is only the front. There may be more behind. Although our cultivation can handle it, it is hard to say what kind of big guys will appear in the future."
"In addition, ancient books record that the evil demons in the demonic tide are driven by some kind of power and have no reason at all. They will flatten everything in their path, whether it is a town or a monk, just like locusts passing through, eating humans and flattening the city."
Lin Du had some doubts, maybe that something was driven by rules.
Ju Yuan was persuaded by his junior brothers and sisters to put on the mask he had in his hand but had no intention of wearing, "Then let's go down and kill the demon!"
I listened, but not completely.
Lin Du sighed and stood up, "First go to the nearby city to confirm the situation of the defensive formations. By the way, contact other sects who have come to protect Zhongzhou to help each other. It is best to take turns to go out of the city to kill the demons."
"No one is allowed to act without permission this time. If all nine of us are going to leave the city, it's best to maintain our formation, ensure attack and defense, reduce casualties, and retreat in time."
No wonder Fengchao let her, the youngest, lead the team.
This family would be broken up without her, she meant it.
Lin Du looked at Qi Zhen and said, "You are also planning to go out of the city with us to kill those evil demons, right?"
Qi Zhen nodded, not sure why Lin Du was staring at him and asking, "Yes! I have made up my mind to kill the evil spirit and avenge my mother and the people in the village."
Lin Du laughed and reached out to pat his shoulder. Qi Zhen quickly turned aside. Who would have thought that Lin Du's hand passed over him and reached for Ni Jinxuan beside him, "Let's go into the city."
The spirit boat slowly descended. Before Qi Zhen could react, Lin Du patted him on the shoulder and said, "Get off the spirit boat."
The spirit boat shook slightly, and Qi Zhen's mind was in turmoil even more than the spirit boat.
