There is an ancient sun and moon between heaven and earth, rising in the east and setting in the west during the day and night, and the people of the world use this to distinguish the time and cultivate and practice. The scorching sun blesses all things with its shining brilliance, harvesting in autumn and hiding in winter, growing in spring and growing in summer, and is characterized by lush forests in the mountains and fruitful rice ears in the fields; the bright moon blesses all things with the light of profit and loss, so that the weak in the world can lie dormant in the day and rise at night, constituting a world of yin and yang.

The fairest thing in the world is the scorching sun and the moon. It is not a person who is in a high position, but he can get a few more hours. It is not from a poor family, but a little less sun and moon. Qingzhou City and the capital are thousands of kilometers apart, but the same sky and the same sun and moon are above the head, and those who are not in the world can enjoy it exclusively.

But just like Qin Chuan sitting in the valley like this, and the white moonlight was only projected on his body, the bright moon in the sky and Qin Chuan did not know each other, nor were they close relatives, which was really incomprehensible.

Shopkeeper Wu saw something strange at this time, and said with a solemn face: "Tonight, when the new year alternates with the old year, it is the weakest day for Haoyue, and the twenty-eight star palaces and the four elephants next to it are desperately absorbing the aura of heaven and earth and transmitting it to Haoyue, so that it will not be weak." But I never expected that you would steal it, and it was really a wedding dress for others. If it is detected, let alone Qin Chuan's mortal body, even the strong bodies of those people will be eaten up and killed. ”

Lao Dao didn't think so, he still looked at the field and said: "I just stole a trace of heaven and earth aura, how can I be detected? The essence of the sun and moon is the origin, and the empty mountains and Danhai condensed by the heaven and earth aura obtained in this way are the purest, although they are not as good as those natural geniuses, but they are much better than ordinary martial arts cultivators." Qin Chuan's foundation is thin, and it has been delayed for decades, so he can only use some small means. Look at this hour, you still have to work hard tonight, and the next movement is not small. ”

Shopkeeper Wu frowned, thinking about something in his heart, hesitated for a moment and said, "Wait, if there is a chance, let Qin Chuan do me a favor, you are not allowed to interfere." Don't worry, this matter is absolutely not bad for Qin Chuan, and it can be regarded as a good fate for him. ”

Lao Dao smiled: "For the sake of that broken big family, hey, you really draw the ground as a prison and trap yourself in Qingzhou City." It is said that the promise of the world is worth a thousand gold, I thought it was all for profit, how can there be a real best friend, I didn't expect to see it in you, I was shallow. After Lao Dao finished speaking, he bowed to the shopkeeper Wu.

", don't make fun of me. You stinking old way isn't much better. Shopkeeper Wu heard the meaning of the old saying, and couldn't help but feel gloomy, as if he had been hit in the sore spot. But between raising his hand, he increased the aperture next to Qin Chuan by a few points.

Lao Dao was focused on Qin Chuan at this time, and saw that he was still reciting the "Bodhicitta Sutra", neither humble nor arrogant, his voice was loud, and the moonlight that fell into this valley all converged on Qin Chuan's head, and it can be seen that there are white heaven and earth spiritual qi around him turning into hundreds of water droplets, revolving around Qin Chuan. The bright moon in the sky did not have a profit or loss because Qin Chuan stole a trace of heaven and earth aura, but became brighter in the night sky. It can be seen that the four elephants next to the bright moon are brighter than before, burning violently like small fireballs. Ordinary people would just think that there must be a comet across the night sky.

Qin Chuan sat cross-legged on the ground, reciting the "Bodhicitta Sutra" in his mouth as the old Tao said, and felt more and more that there was a warm current in his heart, which was as warm as the bowl of mutton soup he drank on the day of the beginning of winter. This warm current rose from the abdomen, and then flowed back to the soles of the feet, and after a while, it rose to the Heavenly Spirit Cover, which was a little hot in such a cold valley. As the hours passed, this body became warmer.

After a while, the bright moon above his head became more and more bright, and it could be seen that the light around Qinchuan was getting thicker and thicker, and it was already the size of a person's forearm, and hundreds of water droplets slowly formed a white bead hovering in the sky, and only a strong martial arts practitioner could perceive how much heaven and earth aura was contained in this white bead.

Just as Qin Chuan was about to finish reciting the Bodhicitta Sutra, the white bead suddenly disappeared from the divine court above his head, as if the bead was not a real thing at all. Qin Chuan only felt that there was something in the divine court that went to Tianchong, Fubai and other places, and began to be a little dizzy and swirling, and before he stayed on the top of his head for long, this bead suddenly rushed to the lower abdomen, and then Qin Chuan felt unbearable pain, and his face began to look hideous, but the "Bodhicitta Sutra" in his mouth still did not stop.

At this time, the aperture of the shopkeeper Wu began to expand, and after a while, the entire mass grave was enveloped, and this vision of heaven and earth could not be discovered by others, so Qin Chuan's breath could not be exposed. However, that moonlight still gathered on the top of Qin Chuan's head, and it seemed that it had entered Qin Chuan's body and never came out again.

It is like falling into the cold well water on a cold night, and it is as if the meridians of the whole body are broken, and the internal organs explode, and it is like enduring torment in the oil pot. As the white bead entered his body, Qin Chuan's various feelings surged up for a while, and he only felt that all the punishments in the world were being endured.

Lao Dao said before that Qin Chuan's body did not have a real empty mountain and Danhai, so it was not compatible with the heaven and earth aura in the world, no matter where Qin Chuan was hiding, as long as he stood in the world, this heaven and earth aura would enter Qin Chuan's body, constantly impacting the incomplete empty mountain and Danhai, and wanted to get out of the body. With the support of the old Dao Fu Seal Formation before, Qin Chuan was still a little more relaxed. But now that the old Dao's magic circle has been withdrawn, and Qin Chuan is absorbing the purest heaven and earth aura tonight, this torment is a hundred times more painful than the previous evil disease, I don't know if Qin Chuan can survive it.

At this time, Qin Chuan was sweating profusely, his whole body was trembling because of the pain, his teeth had bitten his lips, and his fists were clenched. However, Qin Chuan did not stop the "Bodhicitta Sutra" in his mouth, because Qin Chuan knew that if he could not condense the empty mountains and Danhai tonight, he would suffer from this kind of pain from time to time. I secretly encouraged myself in my heart: I, Qin Chuan, can lose, but I can't lose in my own hands!

When the disciples of the great families and inheritance sects are cultivating and advancing, they have a lot of elixirs and heavenly treasures to assist, and their function is to stabilize their minds and minds, so as not to go mad. But tonight's Qin Chuan, without the assistance of such foreign objects, can only rely on himself. Just like the Taoist temple in Mataling, there is no cook maid, everything has to be done by yourself, at a young age I learned how to survive in the mountains, but also passed the years with insects and birds, in order to condense the empty mountain, Danhai, Qin Chuan dared to gamble his life, with this perseverance, as a young hero.

There are some people in the world who are always ridiculed without limits. There is a mountain in front of the door that blocks the way, and if it were an ordinary person, he would have bypassed it, but some people forcibly moved it away and blessed his descendants; some people did not like the darkness, so the man named Kuafu crossed thousands of mountains and thousands of rivers to find the place where the sun rose, even if he fell halfway through; some people drowned in the sea, and they were not willing to do this, but turned into a divine bird and carried a stone in their mouth, and they were bound to fill in the sea.

If martial arts cultivation is extremely easy, then how can there be so many people in the world who dare not get up in their lifetime? If it is so easy to enter the Tai Academy, how can there be such a thing as a cantilever and a thorn in the head? Even if there are so-called geniuses in the world, they must be in the minority. Moreover, this kind of natural person is difficult to match the down-to-earth diligent, and if it is a matter of life and death, the latter must be more victorious.

At this time, a cultivator around Qingzhou City who had just advanced to the realm of synaesthesia was drinking with several close friends, and suddenly stopped the wine in the cup, only to feel that the empty mountain in his body and the heaven and earth aura in the Danhai were rapidly disappearing, this abnormal situation surprised him greatly, thinking that his realm was unstable, so he hurriedly took out a bottle of Guji Peiyuan's pill from his arms and took it. Although his mood gradually stabilized, the aura in his body still seemed to be draining, but the speed was a little slower.

After the aura of heaven and earth enters the body, martial arts practitioners can hide a part of it in the empty mountains and Danhai, and wait until the opponent bursts out in an instant, but at this moment, the aura of heaven and earth is suddenly lost, which is inevitably suspicious.

The super array of the White Deer Academy in Qingzhou City is also abnormal at this moment. The tallest building had always been facing the bright moon, but now it seemed to be a little shorter than before. The surrounding buildings with carved brick walls also seem to be a little blurry, and they are also a little unreal in the dark night. Lao Dao once said that the White Deer Academy was a super array, so it seems that the profit and loss of tonight's bright moon also has a great impact on it.

Qin Chuan was like an ant devouring bones at the moment, being bitten everywhere, and like his limbs had just healed and then broken again. This kind of pain was still continuing, and for a while, Qin Chuan gritted his teeth, although he was still chanting the Bodhicitta Sutra in his mouth, he was actually a little delirious.

At this moment, I saw a Taoist emerge from the moonlight on the valley, following the thick moonlight, and stayed in front of Qin Chuan. This Taoist is seven feet tall, with a Zhuangzi scarf around his head, a blue coat full of talismans, Buddha dust in his hand, white cloud socks on his calves, and cross green cloth shoes on his feet. Looking at this dress, it turns out that this is the Heavenly Monarch enshrined in the Mataling Taoist Temple!

When Lao Dao saw this portrait, his originally dignified face began to show a slight smile, he tidied up his cuffs, patted the dust on his body, and bowed slightly a few steps forward, reluctant to get up for a long time.

After seeing this Taoist statue, the shopkeeper Wu, who was far away, shouted: "It's not good! It's a big deal!" and then threw the dry tobacco pouch in his hand towards the sky and flew towards the black robe hanging on the towering tree.

I saw that the dry tobacco bag of the shopkeeper Wu was propping up the black robe, and in an instant, the black robe began to exude an inky shadow, and it was ...... Sanzhang ...... Twenty zhang, just when the Dao statue was hanging next to Qin Chuan, the ink-colored shadow conjured by the robe of the shopkeeper Wu had covered the mass grave for fifty zhang before stopping. Except for Qin Chuan's side, it was difficult for the moonlight to penetrate in.

When many birds and beasts saw the darkness of the whole valley, they couldn't help but panic and ran in all directions. Although their vision is excellent at night, it is as if they have hit a wall, and they have no idea what lies ahead. Rampage across the borders of the inky robes, but they couldn't break through the barriers.

After the shopkeeper Wu finished doing this, he flicked a few more times towards the aperture on Qin Chuan's side, and after seeing that some were all right, he began to rest against the trunk of the tree, at this time he was so angry that he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand: "I hope that the breath is not dispersed, otherwise Qingzhou City in the future will definitely not be peaceful." ”

......

In the Taixu Palace in the capital, Chen Zhenren was accompanying the saint to prepare for the blessing. This time, when the new year and the old year are replaced, the saint rings the Taoist bell. I don't know what kind of material the bell is made of, but its sound is so far away that it can be transmitted to the guards guarding the city dozens of miles away, and they beat drums to announce that they have been waiting for a long time in the east, west, north and south, and they all shout together, "The new year has arrived, the saint inherits the sky, the wind and rain are smooth, and the country and the people are safe!"

The saint was now sitting on a chair made of golden sandalwood, with a thick mink fur underneath, and he did not feel any coldness in the cold winter night. At the forefront, there is a high-quality rosewood charcoal fire, and the fire is burning brightly, but there is no spark to see, and even mortals must know the value of this rosewood charcoal, and it must be a tribute from Jewonju, which is crisscrossed by the mountains.

Fifty paces away from the saint stood several layers of guards, undoubtedly not wearing armor and carrying huge bows and crossbows, looking at their weight, they were much heavier than those used in ordinary temples, and their lethality was naturally self-evident. Twenty paces away from the saint, there is a personal guard, more than three generations are pure white families, and they have only reached this step after layers of screening. And in the shadows, there are naturally a few peerless masters hidden to prevent those who dare to defy the condemnation of the world from coming to assassinate. Recently, the border war has been tense, but we have to guard against it.

However, the reason why the saint dared to come here today is that Wei Qianxing, the eunuch with the palm print in the palace, is also by his side, otherwise, even if the Taixu Palace is the place of belief in the Daomen of Longguo, the saint would not dare to come here in person. It is said that Wei Qianxing's skills are unfathomable, but few people have seen him make a move, and even the officials who have stayed in the temples of the capital for decades have never seen this person.

This person protected the saint when he was a child, and finally let him get to this position safely, and of course, he also killed a lot of enemies behind his back, even the prince at the time.

It is rumored in the capital that when Wei Qianxing killed someone, he used a butcher's knife, so he was also called Wei Butcher, and those foreign assassins entered the palace where Wei Butcher was sitting, and all of them confessed here. Therefore, whenever there is a child who likes to cry at night in the capital, as long as he says that the butcher of Wei is here, the child will not dare to cry at night.

At this time, around the saint, there were several princes sitting according to the custom, but the closest ones were Chen Zhenren and disciple Su Changxin, and the other elders were waiting ten steps away, which shows the importance that the saint attaches to the master and apprentice of Taixu Palace.

However, at this time, Chen Zhenren's face was solemn, and when the sage was talking with several other princes, he called Su Changxin to get up and discuss something.
