Chapter 149: A Sure Number in the Dark

Stone pillars, "firebirds" flying in the sky, and deafening screams. Lu Xin couldn't see the true face of those things hidden under the flames. But Cao Fu's trembling voice, as well as the changes in the expressions of the others, all showed the seriousness of the situation.

"Senior brother, what the hell is this? Your face looks very bad. ”

"Senior Brother Xie, do you remember what the master said before leaving? The Fengdu Ghost Domain is shaped like a desolate world, and there are many demon beasts surviving. One of the most troublesome is the Firewing Demon Bat. This kind of demon beast has the ability to resist fire, and there are extremely many of them. When the enemy rises up and attacks, he is not afraid of life and death. Once entangled by them, no matter how powerful the Onmyoji is, it is very likely that his mana will be depleted alive. ”

On the side of the Five Elephant Gate, the Qilin envoy also spoke in a trembling voice, and his face was extremely difficult to see. When the other four seal envoys heard this, they all held their breath and condensed, and offered the big seal in their hands and hung it above their heads. Lu Xin looked around, and the only thing that didn't change the expression of the people present was the young man who was always standing beside the Qilin Envoy.

Originally, Lu Xin didn't pay special attention to this person, but at this time, in retrospect, this person wearing coarse cloth clothes and looking ordinary was extremely calm from beginning to end. His eyes were lowered, as if he could fall asleep at any moment.

"Miss Jiang, you should know what these things are, right? I suggest that we join forces to set up a formation to have a chance to carry it. ”

"Okay, we are outside the Valley of Hundred Flowers, and you are inside the Five Elephant Gate, and we will protect the formation with a formation. The rest of the people, ready to answer at any time. ”

Faced with the Qilin Envoy's proposal, Jiang Yan hardly hesitated. With a loud shout, he took the other three people to rotate the magic umbrella and arrange the formation. After five breaths, the shadows of countless oil-paper umbrellas appeared above everyone's heads, layer upon layer, densely packed. These oil-paper umbrellas are all the color of a hundred flowers, connected by talismans, and slowly rotate in the void without the slightest gap.

"Amazing, the exquisite Thousand Umbrella Array in the Valley of Hundred Flowers is the first time I've seen it. It is said that this formation has extremely strong defense and can rebound all the Five Elements Dao techniques. Back then, Ji Yunmeng, the valley master of the Hundred Flowers Valley, personally laid out a large array, and with this, he resisted the joint attack of the five Sect Masters of the Divine Realm, shocking the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm! It seems that we are saved. ”

Seeing that the people of Baihua Valley quickly arranged the formation, Cao Fu's face finally softened. Subsequently, the people of Wuxiangmen were also under the umbrella array, using the big seal in their hands to form a square enchantment. In an instant, a huge purple unicorn roared in the sky, and thunder flashed all over its body. This enchantment, Lu Xin had seen it once in Qingyang County. At that time, the people of Wuxiangmen used this to resist the hundreds of millions of incarnations of Ao Tian.

"Brother Cao is well-informed and seems to know everything. And you dare to break into the Fengdu Ghost Domain alone, you must have a great future, right? ”

Lu Xin saw that the fire bats in the sky couldn't rush into the formation for a while, but he was happy to see the people of the two sects contribute, and sat cross-legged on the ground. The people of the Shadow Dragon Guard were also recovering their mana, Cao Fu looked around, and saw that the formation and enchantment were very stable, so he sat down by Lu Xin.

"If the Onmyoji cultivates blindly in retreat and asceticism, does not ask about the world, and has no well-informed information, he will be like the blind man, and he will not be able to go far. In this world, there are countless masters, and there are countless kinds of exercises and Taoism. If you can understand the truth one by one, you will naturally be able to increase your cultivation. If you go one step further and integrate all the exercises and Taoism, you will be able to become an immortal and become holy. Although Baihua Valley is not among the five major sects, Ji Yunmeng is an extremely powerful woman. Her self-created magic weapon, the exquisite Hundred Flowers Umbrella, is unique in the world of cultivating immortals. I heard that Yang Yan and Yang Miao, two brothers and sisters, escaped from Ao Tian with this umbrella. ”

"So they didn't die?"

Lu Xin's eyes changed slightly, and when Cao Fu saw this, he suddenly became interested, and he laughed twice.

"The underworld soldiers traveled at night, passed through Xuanzhou, went to Chizhou, and finally arrived in Qingyang County, if Brother Dao was there all the way, he should know everything, right? I heard that the reason why Ao Tian was transformed was because there was a mysterious force that broke the Five Elements Dao Technique on his body. At that time, Yan Fu, the sect leader of the Upper Xuantian Sect, and Ji Yunmeng, the master of the Hundred Flowers Valley, were all present. Which of the two do you think this power comes from? ”

"Does this matter matter?"

"Hahaha, it may not matter to you, but for me, it's about figuring something out."

Cao Fu's eyes narrowed slightly, and after laughing, he suddenly lowered his voice, his face was solemn, not like he was joking. Lu Xin hesitated for a moment and looked up beyond the barrier.

"If I say that the power does not come from Yan Fu and Ji Yunmeng, do you believe it?"

"Believe, of course. In this world, how many caves are blessed and how many hidden masters are there? Ao Tian is not the only one who can live for 3,000 years. Pre-Qin, Ancient Times, there must have been other Qi Refiners left in this world. Sixty years ago......"

Cao Fu suddenly mentioned a sentence from sixty years ago, but stopped halfway through the sentence, and then stopped talking. Lu Xin understood that he must know some secrets, but since Cao Fu didn't say it, he couldn't ask about it, so he talked about what happened after Ao Tian fled into Lingyang Mountain.

"Lingyang Mountain, among the seventy-two blessed lands of Taoism, ranks thirty-ninth. The dragon veins in it are very powerful. After Ao Tian's corpse was transformed, his physical body became a demon, coupled with the immortal power of the immortal revival grass. Once the entire dragon vein is completely refined, with the power of the physical body alone, I am afraid that it will be able to reach the peak of the Hetian Realm. It's a pity that he should never be able to become an immortal. ”

"I heard that after Ao Tian fled into Lingyang Mountain, Yan Fu sent thousands of disciples south to find him. But later, the matter was over, and there were not many rumors on the rivers and lakes. Could it be Ao Tian, who has already been arrested? ”

"Hmph, is Brother Dao joking with me? With just one Upper Xuantian Sect, can he deal with the masters of the Ancient Heaven Realm? Speaking of which, at that time, it was not only the Xuantian Sect that was looking for Ao Tian. The Valley of Hundred Flowers, the Five Elephant Gate, the Imperial Court, and even the people of Ember Buddha Mountain and Lingjun Taoism came. The reason why there was no news later was because the imperial court stepped forward and suppressed the whole thing, and let all the sects prohibit it from spreading. ”

"The Imperial Court? Hehe, it is impossible for the imperial court to have such a big face. Brother Cao, you must have hidden something. ”

"Hahahaha, Brother Dao is really a smart person. Indeed, the strength of the imperial court is not enough to suppress the sects of the world. But Li Shimin only needs to invite one person out of the mountain, and all parties must give face. Even Ember Buddha Mountain and Lingjun Taoism did not dare to offend this person. ”

"You mean, Xuanzang?"

"Not bad."

Cao Fu nodded, but then seemed to feel a little strange, and stared at Lu Xin for a moment. It wasn't until he saw the boy frown that he looked away.

According to legend, Xuanzang only said one sentence at that time, which made the leaders of the various sects change their faces. After that, he went into the depths of Lingyang Mountain alone, and it took three full days before he came out of the mountain. Since then, all the people of the major sects have retreated, and no one dares to mention the matter of Ao Tian and the Underworld Soldiers' night walk. Then, Xuanzang traveled west to Tianzhu in the name of the Tang Dynasty and vowed to seek Buddha for the common people in the world. Brother Dao should have heard of this, right? ”

"Well, I've heard a few."

Lu Xin nodded, but his heart was full of emotion. He had not only heard that Xuanzang was at the scene on the day he set off from Chang'an. The monk's gaze towards him made him unforgettable for the rest of his life. At this time, I recalled the scene at that time, combined with what Cao Fu said and everything that happened on the night of the night of the Immortal Soldier's night walk. Lu Xin suddenly felt that Xuanzang hurriedly went west a few months later, which must have something to do with Ao Tian. Otherwise, with Xuanzang's cultivation and Taoism, it is impossible not to count the killing and robbery of Chang'an a few days later. And he would rather ignore the lives of millions of people in Chang'an City, but also insist on going west, which shows the urgency in his heart.

Lu Tingfang has also said more than once that he must calm everything down before Xuanzang returns. This is a race against time, and it is obvious that he is in a hurry for something. Yuan Tiangang is a Taoist onmyoji, but Xuanzang is a Buddhist. What both sides have to do should be the opposite. However, what do the master and apprentice want to do? And what does this have to do with Xuanzang's westward journey? ”

Lu Xin took a deep breath, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt. Perhaps in the dark, the development of some things has reached some kind of unimaginable critical juncture. And these things will affect the whole world and the future of hundreds of millions of people!

"What's wrong with you, you seem to be scared?"

"Nothing...... Brother Cao, according to what you mean, Xuanzang's westward journey is related to Ao Tian? ”

"Huh? Hehe, maybe it matters, maybe it doesn't matter. Xuanzang had been to the imperial court as early as two years ago and wanted to go to Tianzhu to seek the law, but Li Shimin had not approved it. When I heard that Ao Tian's corpse had changed, I had said a word. This heaven and earth can't become immortals, right? ”

"Yes, I did. Two years ago, the first year of Zhenguan ......"

Lu Xin's brows furrowed terribly, the more he analyzed the matter of the night movement of the underworld soldiers, the more he felt that it was very wide-ranging, and it was not as simple as it seemed at all. It can even be said that the appearance of Ao Tian has accelerated the speed of everything to happen. And it was only after that that that he met Li Chunfeng. If he hadn't been poisoned, he wouldn't have been exiled to Huanggang Village, he wouldn't have been rescued by the old man, and he wouldn't have met Cao Fu and his party in Raozhou City. If none of this happened, Lu Xin might not be able to worship Li Chunfeng as a teacher.

Sure enough, in the dark, everything seems to be certain. Cao Fu is the key to me becoming an onmyoji. Now, I met in this Fengdu ghost domain again. In the future, what kind of relationship will I have with this descendant of Cao Cao? ”

sighed in his heart, Lu Xin had mixed tastes. After glancing at Cao Fu, he stood up from the ground. At this time, Cao Fu seemed to be still deeply involved in the chat just now.

"No matter how the world changes, I hope that Xuanzang can come back later. Otherwise, it's too late. ”

"Too late for what?"

Cao Fu's sudden words made Lu Xin's face change suddenly. This sentence is too similar to what Lu Tingfang said. But just as Lu Xin asked, the ground shook suddenly.

"Look, everyone, the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Ding has fallen!"
