Chapter 64: Neither Demon nor Immortal 4
On the other side, inside the Wanjian Sect's main hall.
At this moment, the scene inside was actually a scene where, except for the disciple-recruiting conference held once every ten years, all the elders and peak masters of the Wanjian Sect were rarely gathered together.
Elders with different styles of thinking stood in the hall. No one was talking about unnecessary things. They all stretched their necks in unison, looking up at a high platform in the middle of the hall.
This high platform was inlaid with real jade and spiritual stones and was temporarily built by several elders in just a few hours.
The reason why such a scene has appeared now is all because of a dream that the master of Tianji Peak had last night.
In the vague dream, an invisible but very majestic figure appeared before him.
Before old Tianji's brain could react, his body had already bowed down obediently.
He didn't even have the chance to speak before a faint sound like thunder rang out from the horizon.
[My dear little boy, I have a premonition that this world will be in great trouble, so I have specially sent my celestial messenger to help the human world overcome the disaster.]
As soon as the words fell, the figure disappeared as mysteriously as when he came, and old man Tianji woke up to the loud cry of a rooster.
When it was daybreak, he was still immersed in the shock of seeing the emperor's face and could hardly recover.
But soon, he gradually recalled what the god said to him in the dream. He realized that this was completely different from all the predictions he had seen before. This was definitely not just a simple precognitive dream, but a revelation from the god. Thinking of this, he no longer delayed and immediately got up to discuss the matter with the leader of the Tianjian Sect.
The arrival of the immortal messenger was such a significant event that the clan leader, who had lived for almost a thousand years, lost his composure when he heard the news and nearly jumped off his chair in fear.
The clan leader, who was confused by the news, walked around the hall a few times before he gradually calmed down. Then he said to the old man Tianji, "Such a big thing cannot be handled by just the two of us. I will immediately issue a clan leader order to call back the other immortal elders."
Old man Tianji nodded, and the current scene in the temple was as it is today.
Many immortals who are rarely seen in the outside world are reunited at this time.
Seeing that the hour of midnight was approaching, but there was no sign of the immortal coming from the platform, Master Lan Feng looked at the old man Tianji suspiciously, "There is still no news until now, could it be that you, the old immortal, got drunk and misunderstood the instructions of the gods?"
The old man was furious when he heard this, "Master Lan Feng, no matter how dissatisfied you are with me, you shouldn't doubt that I would make a mistake about this matter."
"Shut up!" Seeing that the two were about to quarrel in such a situation, the clan leader standing in the front immediately scolded them in a low voice, and the two of them decisively turned around and shut up.
At this time, Leng Shansheng, the sect master's first disciple, quietly looked around at everyone in the hall and couldn't help but whispered to the sect master, "Is the ancestor not here yet?"
The clan leader got a headache again when he heard this title, "I don't know where your ancestor has gone. I have sent him a lot of messages, but I don't know if he has received them. But for such a big event, it is impossible for him not to have received the signs..."
Seeing that his master looked unhappy, Leng Shansheng stopped talking tactfully and returned to his seat.
Finally, under everyone's eager anticipation, at the moment when Haizi met, a long golden light began to appear above the platform, and a straight beam of light shot down from the sky, shining directly on the Tianjian Sect. This mysterious scene was seen by everyone in Yuzhou.
Fairy music slowly flowed out from the light column, and waves of petals transformed by spiritual power also surged along with it. Then, a platinum-colored shadow appeared in front of everyone.
The clan leader looked up, and saw the immortal shrouded in a colorful glow. He was surrounded by misty clouds, and his robes were like flowing galaxies. In his jade-white hand he held a turquoise water mirror, but he could not make out the immortal's face.
After just a glance, the sect leader immediately lowered his head in fear and trepidation, and at the same time, the elders behind him also followed him and bowed down.
"Welcome the Immortal Envoy——"
The immortal did not say anything. He stood quietly for a while, until the strange scene gradually disappeared and the fairy music stopped, then he jumped down from the platform lightly.
As soon as he came down, he yelled at the elders, "You are so brave!"
"Calm down, Immortal Envoy!" No one knew what he meant, but the sect leader still slid down to his knees quickly with a confused look on his face.
"I wonder what we have done to cause the immortals to come down to earth?" Old man Tianji cleverly continued the sect master's words.
The immortal envoy snorted coldly, and then said, "Your Majesty had a premonition of a catastrophe in the human world the day before yesterday, so he sent me down. The source of this disaster is still unknown, but I can tell that it is all caused by all of you." Jian Zongqi. You mortals have always been bad-natured and greedy. Now that you have met me, why don’t you quickly report the wrong things you have done? I hope I can solve this problem quickly and return to the Lord as soon as possible. around."
"Please calm down, Immortal Envoy. We are not too worried about bothering you to come down to the mortal world. It's just that we don't know what caused this." Seeing that he was angry, the sect leader lowered his head in fear and explained.
Listening to what he said, the immortal walked to the sect leader's seat and sat down, holding his hands and asked, "Regarding the world-destroying demon, I wonder if you can give me any clues."
"It must be that person," the elders around him hadn't spoken yet, but Leng Shansheng, the disciple, stepped forward and said, "Not long ago, the Demon Suppression Tower suddenly caught fire for no reason, and the demon on the 81st floor escaped. He was imprisoned in there for a thousand years and nothing happened. Someone must have helped him escape."
"Really?" The fairy nodded slightly, then said, "Let's see where this devil has fled to and what he plans to do."
"It's just that... this devil has erased all traces of himself since he escaped, and we can't find his location now..."
"You don't need to worry about this. I came here prepared."
Having said that, he walked forward and threw the water mirror in his hand upwards. The water mirror spun several times in the air and became something as big as a palace door when it landed on the ground.
The immortal didn't want to say much, but seeing that these mortals looked like they had never seen anything like this before, he had no choice but to explain, "This is the treasure that the Venerable gave me - the Mirror of Karma. It can explore the past and the present, and it knows everything. As long as you cooperate with me and inject spiritual power into it, it will start to work and help you solve a problem."
Hearing this, everyone in the audience was horrified.
-
"Friend Daoist Yan, are you feeling better now?" Wu Ling put down what he was holding, walked up to him and asked with concern.
"Well, I'm not in any serious trouble now, and I haven't thanked you for saving me yet."
"Haha, that's nothing. It was Daoist Brother Yan who saved my life when we first met. Now I am just repaying Daoist Brother Yan for saving my life."
As they talked, the two walked out together. Wu Ling said, "When I fell from above, I saw the giant dragon disappear. Fellow Daoist Yan, I think we may have entered some secret realm by mistake. I just don't know which great being left this secret realm with a giant dragon as the guardian."
Yan Xi didn't respond to him, but looked around.
This secret realm is filled with abundant spiritual energy and vitality. Tall ancient trees block out the sun, and strange spiritual fruits are dotted among the grass.
During the time Yanxi was unconscious, the system had copied all the data of the entire secret realm. The entire secret realm was not large, but it was full of dangers. Their target, the Amaterasu Sword, was placed at the center of the secret realm.
Thinking that the target was right in front of him, Yan Xi simply stopped hiding it. He looked up at the young man beside him and directly prepared to take the protagonist over, "Come with me, Wu Ling."
He said this suddenly, but Wu Ling was only surprised for a moment and didn't say anything more, just nodded.
-
There was a circle of complicated patterns around the causal mirror, and there seemed to be mist flowing on the mirror. As the elders injected a large amount of spiritual power, the patterns around the mirror lit up, and the mirror began to rotate slowly. Finally, the mist dissipated, and the picture in the mirror was fixed on the figure of a young man.
"Wu Ling!" Seeing his youngest disciple appear inside, the sect leader was so surprised that he blurted out his name.
"Hmm?" Hearing his voice, the fairy who had never looked at people straight in the eye slowly turned his head and asked, "Do you know him?"
The sect leader was a little hesitant, and was too panicked. He didn't know how to respond for a moment, so his eldest disciple Leng Shansheng stepped forward and spoke for him, "Reporting to the Immortal Envoy, Wu Ling is my master's disciple, and also my junior brother."
"Your disciple?" Upon hearing this, the immortal envoy glanced at the sect master. The latter's heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously began to explain, "Immortal envoy, there must be some misunderstanding here. How could my disciple..."
"Of course it's not him!" The fairy interrupted him impatiently, and at the same time left the mirror, walked to the leader's seat and sat down, propped his face with his hand and said lazily, "I'm just asking casually, why are you so nervous?"
The sect leader couldn't help but sigh in his heart, you had already said that you were going to do such a big thing as find the world-destroying devil, and then you suddenly mentioned his little disciple Wu Ling, how could he not be nervous?
But they did not dare to refute the immortal's words.
So everyone continued to watch.
As the camera turned, a cave appeared in the mirror. In the middle of a pool surrounded by mist, a white figure was sitting quietly.
When they saw the face of that figure, the old Taoists were all shocked, but the young ones didn't know him very well and all looked confused.
"Who is this?" the immortal asked again when he saw this.
Old man Zong Tianji stepped forward and replied to the immortal messenger, "This is the demon leader from the Demon Suppression Tower who escaped from our sect not long ago. We sent countless disciples to him but he escaped all the time. I didn't expect him to hide here and even deceive our disciples."
"Yeah, this is in the secret realm? What is he doing here?"
"Humph, he must be trying to trick this disciple into doing something for him?"
As soon as they saw the two of them appear in the frame at the same time, the elders underground began to chatter non-stop, trying to distance themselves from the sect and the demon in their words.
The fairy who was sitting on the throne propped his forehead with one hand and listened to them chattering for a long time before saying, "Clean up!"
The place became quiet instantly.
The images in the mirror continued to change.
Seeing Yan Xi running towards the center of the secret realm almost without hesitation, and Wu Ling also going with him without hesitation, Wu Ling's master couldn't help but frowning.
Even though I knew that this kid had a pure heart, it was a bit too unguarded for him to be so trustworthy towards a stranger whom he had barely met.
They had to find a way to get him out from under the eyes of the immortal. Finally, when the sword, which looked extremely extraordinary and could be regarded as a peerless divine weapon even in the eyes of all the powerful people present, came into the world, everyone present was amazed.
The leader of the Heaven Sword Sect immediately said to the immortal envoy in front of him, "My Lord Immortal Envoy, this boy is my disciple. He was deceived by the enemy all the way. He is really stupid. Why don't I contact him and give him a chance to atone for his sins."
The immortal emissary sat lazily at the top, tilting his head to look at the sect master below, without saying anything good or bad, but the sect master took it as his tacit approval, and immediately took out the life card he had received when he accepted him as a disciple, then injected spiritual power into it and began to contact the black spirit on the other side.
