Chapter 12: A Change of Mood
After the fifteenth moon, a bright full moon hung in the sky.
On the ancient road in the northwest, several people looked up at the majestic ancient city wall in the distance, and they were full of emotion for a while.
After leaving the sect for half a month, I finally saw an important ancient city in the northwest: Mochizuki Ancient City.
The ancient city is located in the relatively gentle pass of the Xigui Mountains, and because it is located among the high mountains, every time the moon rises, the city is like daylight. The ancient city has been established for a long time, and people can see the bright moonlight in the sky when they look up, so it is called the ancient city of Wangyue.
Legend has it that in ancient times, at the beginning of each month, a fire phoenix flew to the east to fight against the fateful enemy Shenlong. On the night of the full moon, they will fly back to their lair. The Northwest Mountain Range takes the meaning of the fire phoenix returning to the west, so it is called the West Return Mountains.
The moonlight shone on everyone, emitting a hazy glow. Lietian looked at the three girls beside him, and he was in a trance for a while.
Baguio is dressed in purple and has a cold nature. The cold cheeks are like fairies in the world, noble and not to be blasphemed.
Ruo Ning has a gentle personality, wearing a long blue dress and a delicate face. When people see it, they can't help but want to get close and pity.
And Yu Fei was born with a small jasper, but with the cruelty of a princess. It's like a child who doesn't grow up, so that people unconsciously have a sense of love...
"Lietian, why are you staring at us?" At this time, he heard Yu Fei's unique voice interrupting Lietian's reverie.
Lie Tian was embarrassed and coughed lightly. "No, I'm thinking that it's getting late now, and I guess it's not easy to enter Mochizuki Ancient City. Why don't we just rest for the night on the hillside next to us today and set off tomorrow? ”
"That's all there is to it!" Yu Fei replied with a pout. Then he turned around and asked, "Sister Baguio, Sister Ruoning, what do you think?" ”
"Well, it just so happens that everyone is tired of traveling these days. Looking at this picturesque view of the moonlight, it's also a good idea to have a good night's rest! ”
It's rare for Baguio to reply like this.
"Looking at the moonlight, I suddenly wanted to play a song." Ruo Ning said with emotion.
"Then let's hurry up to the hillside, I haven't heard Sister Ruoning play the piano for a long time." Yu Fei happily pulled Ruo Ning and ran to the side.
Baguio looked at Yu Fei with a smile on her face, and followed closely with light steps.
"It turns out that the ice fairy also has a smile," Lietian muttered to himself.
"Lietian, what do you say alone? You said that it was a good night, if you don't hurry up and go to bed, what are they thinking? Su Heng suddenly asked at Lietian.
Lie Tian looked at the fat man Su behind him and smiled dumbly. I forgot about it.
"Let's catch up. Who knows what a woman thinks? In reply, he had disappeared in place.
"Hey, wait for me. You oblivion!" Su Heng chased and shouted behind him...
When Lietian came to the hillside, Ruo Ning was already sitting cross-legged on a large rock, with an antique magic piano in front of him.
The sound of the piano poured out from between the fingers, as if the heart was trembling. A sense of homesickness arises spontaneously.
Tonight the moon is bright and I have gone,
Now I come to think about life and see each other.
The sound of the piano continued, and Lietian and the others were also immersed in thought...
After a while, the sound of the piano stopped, and Lietian asked.
"Why did Ruo Ning play such a sad piano sound?"
"If Sister Ning was brought to Yuntian Sect by the sect master, I think Senior Sister must be homesick. I miss my mother too. After Yu Fei finished speaking, she suddenly fell into Lietian's arms and cried.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of you, complete the task assigned by the sect, and we will go home." Lietian patted Yu Fei's back and slowly comforted.
"En" After Yufei found out that something was wrong, her cheeks were slightly red. Then he nudged the heavens and stood still.
"Sorry to get you involved!" At this time, Ruo Ning held the long qin in his hand, flew down from the stone face while strolling, and came to the front of everyone and spoke.
"It's okay, we're all a family, and we should bear everything together." Lie Tian smiled and said slowly to Ruo Ning.
At this time, the women only felt that the heavens had become a little different. The previous impression of Lietian is gone, replaced by a confident, mysterious, broad-minded, and empathetic young man.
Baguio's expression when he looked at the heavens no longer seemed to be so cold!
"Lietian, senior sister, let's rest early, we have to hurry tomorrow?" Su Heng suggested to everyone.
Everyone smiled at each other, and then set up their own sleeping tents to rest.
But it was said that Lietian was sitting cross-legged in the tent, practicing his own exercises. Since the last time he cultivated to reach the level of warrior and innate cultivation, during this time, Lietian has been seizing the time to cultivate every day.
With the help of the Chaos Dream Butterfly Stone Against the Heavens, the cultivation of the heavens has also reached the realm of the fifth layer of warriors and the fifth layer of innate beings.
After cultivating to break through to the samurai realm, he used the spiritual power to open up the muscles and veins of the whole body. And then strengthen their own muscles and bones, which can make the Yuan Force outward, which is the same as the innate monk's spiritual energy.
However, the physical strength of ordinary martial cultivators is several times higher than that of immortal cultivators. (Martial cultivation has already begun to refine the body after practicing the blood realm, while immortal cultivation has reached the innate realm before starting to transform its own physique with aura) Therefore, martial cultivation generally fights in close combat, while immortal cultivation is better at long-range attacks.
During the cultivation, the night slowly faded, and when the moon disappeared and the sun rose, a wisp of purple qi poured into Lietian's body again. Lie Tian has always felt the mystery of purple qi, and when he felt the alternation of the moon and the sun just now, suddenly a trace of the alternation of time kept evolving in the sea of consciousness. Lietian has entered a state of epiphany with rare commendability.
If there were other monks here, they would definitely call it unreasonable. The chance of an ordinary monk having an epiphany in the samurai and innate realms is one in ten thousand, and this is because the cultivation is too low. Except for those who are proud of the sky, it is basically impossible to enter the state of epiphany. And epiphany is generally when a high-level monk perceives the evolution of heaven and earth, and enters a state of temporary realization of the unity of heaven and man.
At this time, a round of moon and a round of sun in the sea of Lietian Consciousness kept alternating, and it was not until Lietian pulled a wisp of purple qi around it that the two rounds of phantoms completely stabilized.
"I finally realized the use of purple qi. I realized the magic power in the moment when time passed, when yin and yang alternated, so let's name it "Yin and Yang Wheel". Lietian muttered to himself.
When the sun all rose, the heavens also ended this short period of cultivation. And when Lietian packed up and appeared outside, everyone had been waiting for a long time.
"Why did you get up so late, you said yesterday that you wanted to protect us, and today you want us to take care of you!" Yu Fei couldn't help but complain when she saw Lietian come out, but she didn't realize that she had unconsciously centered on Lietian.
"Well, I'm sorry! Yesterday I was too involved in cultivation, and I delayed everyone. In the future, when you cultivate, I will also protect the Dharma for you. Lietian explained awkwardly.
When everyone saw this, they looked at each other and smiled. Then a group of five people walked towards the ancient city of Mochizuki in the distance.
