Chapter 21: The Dust Settles
The monks who were watching from the periphery were startled when they saw the thunder on the golden figure on the top of the peak disappear at once, and before they had time to think about the reason, they saw that the little girl who had just revealed her true face had not even opened her eyes, and she fell to the ground.
There was a devouring silence around them.
The monks' eyes were staring at the black-clad figure, and they almost stopped breathing.
No response
Seeing the clouds in the sky churning for a while, gradually dissolving into nothingness with the wind, the sun spilled back on the earth, and the tyrannical wind also stopped, turning into a warm spring breeze, gently blowing through this mountain range.
The black-clad figure still didn't move
In the crowd, finally a monk couldn't help but shake his head and exclaimed, "The tribulation failed? This woman is so powerful, she actually failed to cross the catastrophe? ”
When the monks heard this, they finally woke up, only to find that their nerves were so tense that they had really forgotten to breathe.
"It's only been less than a day, and this woman has failed to cross the catastrophe, and the power of heaven is really unpredictable," a monk with half-white hair shook his head and sighed.
"It's only been one day, doesn't it usually take two days for such a powerful thunderstorm?" A young monk exclaimed in bewilderment.
"The laws of heaven have their own regulations, how can we speculate, it's just that this woman is really a pity," another white-haired old man said.
"The path of cultivating immortals is difficult and rugged, should it be against the sky, or should it be against the sky?" A white-clothed monk who had watched the whole process muttered with a dazed look in his eyes.
A monk in Tsing Yi who was traveling with him next to him glanced at him when he heard this, and replied: "A person who cultivates immortals is beyond reincarnation, and he is against the sky, doesn't the junior brother know?" ”
The white-clothed monk was still puzzled, "Then why did you break through the same level, but this woman's thunderstorm is so different." This woman is just a little more powerful, should she suffer such unfair treatment? The more he spoke, the more excited he became, "Could it be that it is also a sin to increase one's strength?" ”
The monk in Tsing Yi retorted: "If all monks are the same test, then what calamity is there to talk about? ”
Seeing that the white-clothed monk was silent, he patted the other party's shoulder, "Cultivating immortals is just crossing a single-plank bridge, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss." In order to save our bodies, we will naturally try our best to increase our strength, even if the thunderstorm we have overcome is more powerful? It is better than those monks who are weak and have survived the thunderstorm, but have been trampled on by others at will. ”
In the cultivation realm, there is such a type of monks, they suck wind and drink dew, practice hard, do not enjoy luxury, and even more sneering at those magic weapons and elixirs that can enhance their own strength, they only focus on the cultivation of the state of mind.
This type of monk is called ascetic. Because of their own strength, the tribulation thunder is generally not strong, and the success rate of their tribulation is nearly twice as high as that of ordinary monks. Therefore, there is no shortage of such monks among the high-ranking powerhouses. It's just that although they are numerous, their status is not high, and when they fight the Fa, they have even been defeated by monks of a lower realm.
Obviously, the Tsing Yi monk was extremely disdainful of that kind of cultivation.
The white-clothed monk seemed to have an understanding, and the green-clothed monk continued: "Senior brother, you have also cultivated to the great consummation of the late Yuan Infant period, if you can get a few words from Zhongwu Xianzuo, it will be helpful, I should leave quickly."
As he spoke, his eyes swept over the flickering eyes of several monks next to him, knowing what these people were thinking, he didn't want to mix, so he wanted to take his junior brother and leave the place quickly.
The white-clothed monk was thinking about the words of the green-clothed monk, but he did not notice the strange atmosphere around him, and had no opinion, and the two of them immediately turned into two streamers and fled into the distance.
Around, there were many monks who didn't want to get involved like them, and most of them turned away.
In the blink of an eye, most of the people were gone.
The black-clothed woman at the top of the peak still did not move, these people had strange expressions, stalemate with each other, and the atmosphere fell into a condensation.
Rong Cheng Yue Ze's gaze looked around, retracted with a little disdain, and said with a smile: "Little Brother Heiyun, it seems that this bet is won for my brother." ”
Heiyun Jingqi didn't seem to hear it, his eyes were still looking at the figure of the female cultivator, frowning slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
A trace of anger flashed in Rong Cheng Yueze's eyes, and then disappeared.
After a few breaths, Heiyun Jingqi smiled and said, "Brother Rongcheng, junior brother may not see it." ”
Rong Cheng Yue Ze was taken aback, and immediately looked at the female cultivator.
I saw the figure of a young man beside the female cultivator, who had not yet grown up, and the big elk-like eyes on his slightly infantile fat face coldly swept over the monks who were still stranded in place, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed, as if he was mocking.
The monks who were in a stalemate were immediately annoyed, and they only cared about guarding against others, but they didn't notice how the young man got to the female nun.
Several of them saw that the young man bent over, gently picked up the female cultivator, and was about to leave, they could no longer hold their breath, and several figures suddenly exerted their strength and rushed towards the peak where the female cultivator was.
The young man paused, turned his head, his chin held high, and looked defiantly at the figures, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Those figures were even more angry, they didn't believe it, there were so many of them, and they couldn't help a little ghost. What's more, the female cultivator has a lot of money, how can they bear to let the eyes slip away, now there are so many people, it is not certain who the storage bag will fall into in the end, there is always a fight, there is a chance, isn't it?
They almost didn't need to discuss, and at the same time, they sacrificed their magic weapons and attacked the young man.
However, at the moment of their movements, the surrounding spiritual energy trembled, and they quickly rushed to the ground. Several people were shocked, afraid that it was a trap, and took a few steps back.
In front of them, a light yellow spiritual power barrier formed, protecting the young man and the female cultivator in it.
The boy didn't even move, his eyes were full of ridicule, and he didn't pay attention to them at all.
A white-clothed middle-aged monk looked at him sharply, determined that the young man was only a mid-Yuan infant cultivator, and threatened: "Boy, quickly hand over this woman's storage bag, otherwise, let me wait to attack it, and I will definitely take your life." ”
When the young man heard this, he laughed loudly and said disdainfully, "Can you attack it?" ”
When several people heard this, their faces changed at the same time, and the middle-aged monk shouted at the rest: "Fellow Daoists, that kid is so arrogant, he doesn't take us and others in his eyes at all, I have to take out some color and show that kid."
The rest didn't think about it for long, and they all agreed.
Several people each chose an angle that they thought was the best, and sacrificed the magic weapon, and all kinds of spiritual light soared, reflecting each other, and it was extraordinarily beautiful.
The attack power of those magic weapons is extraordinary, and every time they hit that barrier, they will cause that barrier to fluctuate for a few breaths before it recovers.
Seeing this, several people attacked even harder, as if the young man in there was their old enemy.
Rong Cheng Yueze's gaze crossed the group of clowns and landed on the young man, revealing a hint of surprise.
"See?" Heiyun Jingqi asked suddenly.
Rong Cheng Yue Ze was stunned for a moment, his eyes swept over the small flame pattern on the woman's forehead, and he hesitated: "This woman, could it be the descendant of the Sikong family?" ”
Heiyun Jingqi smiled lightly.
At this moment, among the several monks who were attacking in front of him, a silver-haired old man suddenly stopped his hand and shouted at the others, "Wait, fellow Daoists, stop for a moment." ”
The others were a little puzzled, but they still stopped moving, wanting to hear what the old man had to say.
The silver-haired old man looked at the barrier that had stopped fluctuating, flew around the barrier for a distance, and finally said excitedly: "Oh my God, such a light color, this is the Tiangang Spirit Protector Array condensed by Master Yiming. ”
The other people looked at the excited expression of the silver-haired old man, and they were extremely puzzled, so they heard the silver-haired old man say again: "Master Yiming, that is a second-grade refining array master, the same magic circle, as long as it is condensed by him, the price is more than ten times higher......"
If Chishui was awake now, he would definitely be so angry that he would faint again.
Ten times, ten times, I think that when she sold it to Tianyi Pavilion, it was only thirty percent higher than the market price.
Everyone still didn't react, and the silver-haired old man sighed when he saw this: "You may not know, I also met a strong senior by chance and saw it once. I heard that the magic circle condensed by Master Yiming has been the target of all the powerhouses vying to buy it. ”
"Ahh ”
"Exactly." Seeing that he finally had someone to understand the situation, the silver-haired old man couldn't help but say proudly: "I heard that the labor division mobilized the people, but he still failed to find Master Yiming, such a superb method of refining the formation, those strong people estimate that he has at least the cultivation of the void period." ”
After he finished speaking, his gaze swept over a few people, and his sleeves waved, "The old man has decided to quit, what about fellow Daoists?" ”
Seeing this, another young monk was full of disapproval, "Isn't this Master Yiming here, I'm waiting for so many people, and I'm still afraid of just one magic circle?" What's more, are you really sure that this is from Master Yiming? ”
The implication is that the silver-haired old man is suspected of lying. You know, if everyone listens to him and gives up leaving, then he comes back secretly, and no one competes with him, won't he pick up a big bargain?
When the others heard this, their faces also changed, and they all turned their eyes to the silver-haired old man.
The silver-haired old man was not angry, but only sneered: "Master Yiming's magic circle, how can we crack it, I'm afraid that even if the spiritual power is exhausted, it can't damage the magic circle by half a point, such a thankless thing, the old man doesn't bother to do it, believe it or not, the old man will leave, you will fight for it." ”
As soon as he said that, his big sleeves were raised, turning into a touch of blue light, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
The rest of the people looked at each other for a long time, and several of them looked at the barrier, observed for a while, seemed to believe the silver-haired old man's words, gave up the fight, and left.
At this moment, there was only a middle-aged monk, a young monk, and a man in black who was wearing a doufeng and couldn't see his face clearly.
The middle-aged monk passed through the barrier with a little reluctance, glared at the young man with provocative eyebrows and eyes inside, and suddenly noticed Rong Cheng Yue Ze and the others not far away, his eyes showed a hint of joy, and he said in a loud voice: "Two Taoist friends, are you willing to help me and wait?" ”
Rong Cheng Yue Ze chuckled lightly and asked Heiyun Jingqi, "How is it?" ”
Heiyun Jingqi didn't even look back, and said lightly: "Master Yiming's magic circle, can you crack it?" ”
Rong Cheng Yue Ze was startled, and his gaze swept towards the barrier, "This is really Master Yiming's magic circle?" ”
"It's true," Heiyun Jingqi said firmly.
"Tsk, this woman's net worth is really rich, but it's a pity that she can't get the storage bag" Rong Cheng Yue Ze shook his head and sighed, his eyes showing a trace of joy abnormally.
Compared to watching the storage bag fall into the hands of the other party, such a result seems to be more satisfying to his heart
Seeing that Heiyun Jingqi didn't answer, he instigated again: "Heiyun junior brother really gave up like this? Didn't you also do some research on circles? Do you have a brother to help you, or can you give it a try? ”
Heiyun Jingqi's eyes fluctuated dimly, but he replied lightly: "Master Yiming's magic circle, even if he knows the magic of his magic circle, without the array he condensed, he will never want to get out of the magic circle. The younger brother only knows the fur, how dare he show ugliness here, and make people laugh in vain. ”
Rong Cheng Yue Ze touched his nose uncomfortably, he just wanted to make his position clear, but he didn't think that he had touched his nose and was bored.
The middle-aged monk was a little annoyed when he saw that the two of them were discussing by themselves, and no one paid attention to him, but now it was obvious that the three of them alone could not break this magic circle, so he had to hold back his anger and asked in a loud voice again: "Are the two Taoist friends willing to help?" ”
Heiyun Jingqi finally looked at the man, his black eyes were as deep as a cold pool, and his lips coldly spit out a word: "Get out"
The middle-aged monk was furious, who would have thought that there were only two people standing in front of him who were cultivating in the middle of the Yuan Infant, no matter which one they were, they were all something he couldn't afford to provoke.
He was about to attack, when he saw that the young man in black had a face full of impatience and disgust, and waved his hand at him like a fly, and he suddenly felt swept by a powerful palm wind, and his body lifted off the ground, forming a parabola, and smashed it towards the cliff in the distance.
The middle-aged monk clearly sensed a sharp stone that was several inches protruding directly behind him, but he couldn't move and slammed into it.
A scream pierced the sky, and the sharp stone pierced through the middle-aged monk's chest, and a stone tip emerged, nailing him directly to the cliff, and the blood slowly rendered out from the sharp stone, like a red flower, slowly blooming on the white clothes as snow, bright and dazzling.
This sudden scene stunned the two people on the side.
The young monk reacted the fastest, knelt on the ground with a "plop", trembling and begging for mercy: "Two seniors spare their lives"
Heiyun Jingqi didn't expect that he would make it like this with a random wave, he frowned, now he can't be good, only cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
Therefore, he looked at the middle-aged male cultivator whose eyes were bursting out of breath, and grabbed it in the distance, ignoring the other party's sharp screams, pinched it hard, and everything turned into nothingness.
The young monk knew what was going on, and trembled even more, and bowed his head for fear of angering the two men.
Heiyun Jingqi swept over the young man and said indifferently: "I have a secret method that can seal today's memory in your mind, are you willing to give it a try?" ”
The young monk's life and death were in the other party's thoughts, how dare he not want to, and hurriedly agreed.
"Relax" Heiyun Jingqi stretched out his palm, with a glowing white light, and went to the top of the young monk's head.
At this moment, the man wearing the cloak next to him suddenly fled into the distance.
Rong Cheng Yue Ze snorted lightly, his sleeves flicked, and a blue light escaped, spread out in the air, turning into a huge net of green silk, and attacked the figure in surprise.
The green silk was elongated, and in an instant, it was all over the sky, and the man in black was caught by the net after only a few breaths, and he couldn't break free.
Heiyun Jingqi withdrew his hand and said to the young man, "You can go." ”
Immediately, he looked at the figure in the net. I saw that figure flash, and a black shadow rushed out, and the shadow disappeared from the sight of the two.
Heiyun Jingqi's faces changed at the same time, "The remnants of the Gengsang clan? ”
Rong Cheng Yue Ze withdrew the net and looked at the corpse that had been stiff for a long time, his face was full of solemnity, "When did the Gengsang clan find such a means of camouflage?" They deceived us and the others. ”
Heiyun Jingqi said: "We have to report to the alliance as soon as possible." ”
Rong Cheng Yue Ze nodded, put away the corpse, and sighed: "Another bloody storm is coming."
Heiyun Jingqi was noncommittal, looked at the young man who had been watching all this coldly in the magic circle, squeezed out a smile, and said: "Little Daoist, don't panic, the two of us have no intention of your master's wealth, although rest assured." ”
Xiao Bai slowly probed Chishui's pulse, only looked at the two of them, and did not speak.
Heiyun Jingqi was not angry, "May I ask Little Daoist, your master, but he flew up from the Nether?" ”
Xiaobai still didn't answer, but frowned slightly.
Heiyun Jingqi pulled the hem of his clothes and sat on the ground very chicly, "Look, although the two of us can't get in, we can't stay here, and you can't get out, right?" Why don't you answer me a few questions, and the two of us will leave. He glanced around, "Will I help you clear the obstacles before leaving, what do you think?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the leaves in several places around him trembled, and several figures escaped and ran into the distance.
Seeing this, he raised his eyebrows at Xiaobai.
Xiaobai pursed his lips, "How many questions do you have?" ”
Rong Cheng Yue Ze had a trace of dissatisfaction on his face, a little demon, he dared to be so presumptuous He was about to scold, Heiyun Jingqi shook his head at him, and said with a kind face: "There are only three." ”
"Which three?" Although Xiaobai tried his best to suppress it, he still had a trace of impatience.
The corners of Heiyun Jingqi's mouth stiffened slightly, and he still said: "That was the first one just now, the second question: Is it the first time that your master has crossed the catastrophe?" The third question: Do you know Master Yiming? ”
Xiaobai didn't answer, looking at Heiyun Jingqi's scoundrel look, as if if he didn't answer, he would never leave.
It couldn't help but be a little annoyed, although Chishui was holding a breath now, it didn't know how long it could last, it really didn't want to entangle with these two.
Heiyun Jingqi saw that he finally angered the other party, but instead said calmly: "Little Daoyou, your surname is Heiyun, have you heard of it?" Even if you don't answer, won't I find out? It's just a little later. ”
Xiao Bai was stunned, it turned out to be the Black Cloud Family, and then she was secretly angry, if it weren't for Chishui's last move that exceeded its expectations, how could it be afraid that these two people would discover the cave below, she is now an electrified body, and she can't take the teleportation array at all and return to Linshui City.
If it could, it would have woken her up and asked her why she had done such an idiotic thing, and it would have it off
It weighed for a moment, and finally spoke, "Yes, yes, I don't know, you can go." ”
Heiyun Jingqi was stunned for a while, and finally reacted, the other party answered his question, but the answer was too blunt, he almost didn't even want to set it, and he made a mistake
The words were out, and he had no choice but to say, "Let's go"
didn't get a response, he looked fixedly, but saw that Rong Cheng Yue Ze seemed to be shocked by this little Taoist friend's answer, and he was in a trance, and he didn't even hear his words.
But he didn't know that his questions just opened another door to Rong Cheng Yueze.
Knowing that this woman was a female cultivator who had risen from the Nether Realm, he was shocked, it turned out that there were such powerful female cultivators in the Nether Realm, he couldn't help but think of the problem he had considered before, and his eyes seemed to have cleared the fog, and suddenly it became clear that he not only had the path to marry a second-class family, he could completely set his eyes on the female cultivator who had ascended from the Nether.
Female cultivators from the lower realm, due to the gap in strength, most of them do not live long, and there are many concubines who are concubines in order to survive, even if that female cultivator is powerful, can she fight against a family?
It's not that you have to be obedient yet
has to cultivate it well, it may not be a big help for him, and it also avoids the disadvantages of marrying with a second-class family and being held hostage by it, which is really the best policy
"Brother Rong Cheng?" Heiyun Jingqi's voice made him come back to his senses, and he was shocked into a cold sweat, he was careless just now, if someone took the opportunity to attack, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He glanced deeply at the woman in black, then turned around and left with Heiyun Jingqi.
More to, address
