The relationship between Ning and Bai Shenyu has only made substantial progress in recent times, and no one knows about it except for Long Tian, who is a brother and sister.

"I don't know where Senior Brother Chen Jin learned about my relationship with Shenyu?" Xu Ning was puzzled.

Chen Jin was also slightly embarrassed, coughed and said, "It was Master Sun who sued me." ”

Master Sun, this is even more strange, Master Sun usually comes and goes without a trace, and it is difficult to see him in Tongtian Peak, and it is impossible to know the affairs of men and women between him and Bai Shenyu.

So he asked, "Master Sun...... Well, how did he know? ”

"Because the Ma Hong you killed in the Trial Pagoda is the poisonous spell placed in front of Bai Shenyu." When Chen Jin said this, it was like a thunderbolt hitting Xu Ning on a sunny day, making him dizzy and a mess in his brain.

Ma Hong's death is directly related to Bai Shenyu? How is this possible?

Xu Ning was completely confused at the moment, and he stood up in a hurry and walked around, like ants on a hot pot.

Chen Jin pondered for a moment, and when he saw Xu Ning's anxious appearance, he already knew in his heart that he must have been kept in the dark and didn't know anything.

So Chen Jin said: "Ma Hong suddenly lost his internal strength and had no ability to resist in the situation of taking the advantage in the duel with you, and Master Sun already doubted it. ”

When Xu Ning heard this, he seemed to have found a clue, the two of them did their best in the battle of life and death that day, Ma Hong's martial arts cultivation was far beyond his own realm, and he was also surprised by his sudden change at that time.

"I also had doubts at the time, but I didn't think much about him afterwards, thinking that it was just my body bursting out of its potential under the crisis of form." Xu Ning stopped walking and said in a daze.

Chen Jin was sure in his heart, and his tone was quite peaceful: "Master Sun's cultivation is far beyond you and me, not to mention those people on and off the field, and in terms of experience, ordinary people can't compare." He had doubts in his heart at the time, and sneaked into Ma's house afterwards to check the body......"

"Did you find anything special about that?" Xu Ning asked hurriedly.

"He found an extremely powerful poison curse in Mahon's body."

"What?"

"Ma Hong was hit by the poisonous spell spirit talisman made of 'Cordyceps', and he triggered the hidden poisonous spell in his body under the situation of a tough confrontation with you, and finally his muscles and veins were blocked and his strength was lost." Chen Jin said extremely naturally, took a fruit from the stone platform and ate it.

Seeing that Xu Ning was still unclear, Chen Jin shook his head: "People who are trapped in the body by this poison are unconscious under normal activities, and the poison will only be triggered when they exert their internal force. ”

Xu Ning tried his best to calm himself down and raised his doubts: "Then how can you prove that this thing must be done by Bai Shenyu?" ”

"There are two things to prove." Chen Jin said while eating, "First, this kind of poisonous soul talisman is the Bai family's unique skill. Second, it's not enough to poison secretly, you also have to sneak into the Temptation Pagoda. And there are only six people in the entire Tongtian Peak who can crack the tower protection array, except for Master Sun and the other three elders, there are only me and Bai Shenyu. Chen Jindao.

Xu Ning gradually understood, although he was not very clear, but he also felt that what Chen Jin said was flawless.

He said to himself, "Then why would she help me?" Why help me? ”

Chen Jin laughed out loud: "That's because she likes you?"

Xu Ning felt that he was stupid, his face suddenly turned ashamed, he didn't know what to say for a while, and he was at a loss.

Chen Jin here showed a strange look, and said leisurely: "You have to treat her better in the future." This trespassing into the forbidden land without consent is originally a capital crime, not to mention that Ma Hong is also a master who has stepped into the marshal realm with one foot, and it is not easy to secretly poison the curse, and it is really dangerous to go to the soup and fire. ”

After Chen Jin finished saying this, he looked at Xu Ning, who was extraordinary, resolute and resolute, and said with a sigh: "Although Bai Shenyu was born in the Dongzhou Assassin family, he has always been neither treacherous nor evil, but it is even more rare. It's just that she has always been lonely and self-appreciative, and she has never been wronged, and this time she can take this risk for you, and you must treat her well in the future. ”

Xu Ning listened to this advice and said solemnly: "I must abide by the name of my senior brother and never let her down." ”

His words were extremely sincere, and they were from the bottom of his heart.

Chen Jin couldn't help but laugh in his heart when he heard this: "This was originally a private matter between the two of them, and I was blindly mixed with something." ”

So they didn't say anything more, the two said goodbye to each other, and went back to rest.

Xu Ning went up to the rooftop and learned from Chen Jin that this place was called Yuxiantai, and standing here at this moment, he really felt like an immortal.

The bright moon is clear, Lang Lang shines all around, the whole world is ethereal and clear, the distant forests and mountain peaks are silent, and the air is diffused with the curling fragrance of flowers and fruits, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

"It would be nice if the sunken fish were here!" Xu Ning held the small jade pendant hanging around his neck in his hand and thought quietly.

If it weren't for the fact that this is thousands of miles away from Tongtian Peak, and the mountain is blocked, I'm afraid he would have run to the bamboo garden in the back mountain a long time ago.

Standing alone on the Jade Immortal Platform for a long time, he printed the runes from the stone wall, opened the stone door embedded in it, and entered his secret room.

In the secret room, blue light drifted everywhere.

Xu Ning didn't light the lamp either, lying on the bed, his brain began to fall into an emptiness.

In the mysterious chain space.

Xu Ning practiced the "Mixed Yuan Vajra Body Protection" technique while cultivating the "Thousand Faces Heavenly Demon Technique" at the same time.

These two exercises that could be cultivated at the same time greatly saved him time for cultivation, and at this moment, an old man with gray hair was making soul talismans on the side.

Xu Ning clearly felt that Master's expression was more energetic than usual today.

"Master, do you look good today?" Xu Ning asked with concern. The relationship between him and the old man of Huangji seemed to be like the Eighteen Demon Slaying Locks, which had been integrated into the blood and bone marrow, and the slightest changes in the two of them could be keenly perceived.

The old man Huangji was still using all his strength to control the spirit rune in his hand, and replied lightly: "Well, apprentice, you have to speed up your cultivation, I really feel that the energy in my body is stronger today." ”

Xu Ning said thoughtfully: "Today, Senior Brother Chen and I went to Demon Suppression Mountain and met a strange demon beast? ”

"What monster beast is so strange?" The old man asked casually, still busy with his own affairs, he wanted to use this five-grade magic crystal to refine a "five-color Tianyuan Fu" that could help Xu Ning greatly improve his cultivation.

"Evil spirits and monsters." Xu Ning said lightly, and transformed into a body again, preparing to practice the Black Snake Chain Technique and the Cave Heart Killing Lock.

"What do you say? Evil spirits and monsters? ”

Xu Ning was taken aback, and from his master's words, he could tell that he was extremely surprised.

Sure enough, the old man of the Emperor stopped the matter in his hand first, turned around, and said: "I have seen all the demon beasts ranked first on the Heavenly Demon List, but I have never seen this fourth-rank evil spirit demon beast, have you really seen this kind of demon beast today?" ”

Seeing Xu Ning's cautious nod, the old man also confirmed that he was not making up nonsense, in fact, he knew what Xu Ning's mind was, but this evil spirit and demon beast was too mysterious, and he really had no reason to believe it.

Although it was in Xu Ning's body, he could not know everything that was happening in the outside world, and he could only sense some of it intermittently through his divine sense.

Xu Ning saw that the master still had a solemn expression, so he continued to explain the matter clearly: "Today, my senior brother and I went to the Demon Suppression Mountain to inspect the magic circle, and we encountered the evil spirit and demon beast, and I was also injured by his demonic energy......"

When he said this, he didn't continue to speak, and when he looked up, he saw that the old man's originally tightly locked brow had actually soothed, and he was puzzled.

The old man of Huangji laughed out loud with his long white beard, Xu Ning was even more surprised, and he laughed when he heard the master: "This kind of demonic qi and evil magic used by evil spirits and demon beasts have been exchanged for other martial cultivators, and they have long been deeply affected by it. But for you, it's a blessing in disguise, no wonder I feel comfortable today, and even my mental strength is a lot stronger, so that's how it is. Hahaha. ”

"What did Master say about this?" Xu Ning's eyes widened to the size of a brass bell and asked.

"The nine levels of demon beasts on the Heavenly Demon List are all beasts, and only these four grades of evil spirit and demon beasts are the most special, they can be said to be demons or demon beasts." The old man said.

Xu Ning had seen the evil spirit and demon beast that had transformed into a human form in Zhenmo Mountain, but he also understood.

"The demon beast that has been possessed by the evil spirit and devoured the soul is called the evil spirit demon beast, but this kind of evil spirit has not been seen by anyone for thousands of years, and it is not even seen as a teacher......"

"Master, doesn't you still believe the disciple's words?"

"No, you said that you were injured by that strange monster beast with your monster power, right?" The old man asked.

Xu Ning nodded vigorously, like pounding onions.

The smile on the face of the old man became even brighter, and he said: "This kind of demonic qi is very powerful, unless you are a person who cultivates higher than the demon beast can keep it safe, with you who are now only equivalent to the sixth-grade demon beast cultivator, even if you don't die, most of the demonic qi will be abolished." ”

Xu Ning was shocked: "There is such a thing, and the disciple also retreated." ”

"Hahaha." The old man of Huangji laughed again: "The main thing you cultivate now is the demon vein, and you have absorbed and integrated the great evil and fierce things such as the Eighteen Demon Extermination Chain into your body, and used this demon soldier as the meridian as the root bone, so ......"

The old man Huangji sold a pass, looked at Xu Ning and smiled without saying a word.

Xu Ning seemed to have a flash of inspiration in his mind, and his eyes gradually became clearer.

The old man paused, and continued to smile: "The Eighteen Soul Exterminating Locks in your body can absorb this kind of demonic energy, and the demonic veins in your body can absorb the demonic energy in your body and turn it into a powerful mysterious power. ”

The old man saw that he still looked half-understood, and he felt quite interesting, so he put down the work in his hand, walked in front of Xu Ning, and sat down.

"The teacher once told you that there are two kinds of supreme holy martial veins in the world, the 'Red Lotus Holy Vein' and the 'Eight Veins of the Bible', and the 'Demon Vein' passed on to you by the teacher can be comparable to the previous two. It's just that it's not yet known which is better or worse, because no one has ever been able to practice to the extreme. The old man of the Emperor Ji habitually stroked his long beard, looked at Xu Ning with a smile and said, "The cultivators of the martial vein want to absorb the purest aura in heaven and earth the most to improve their cultivation, and of course you also have the martial vein in you, which is not exclusive in itself." ”

Xu Ning nodded yes, looked at the old man and said with a mysterious look: "If you have the opportunity to kill evil spirits in the future, you must grab their souls, the eighteen demon slaying locks cannot devour the same kind of demon beasts at the same time, but they can devour all the evil spirits." ”

After two conversations this night, Xu Ning was surprised and worried, and his heart was very entangled. I was trying to calm myself down and carefully straighten out my thoughts, but I was caught off guard, and there was another sentence from the old man Huangji:

"Now, you'd better find a chance to stay on the Demon Suppression Mountain, where the demonic energy is the strongest."
