Chapter Forty-Six: Burning Incense and Retiring to Destroy the World
"Master Mo, this matter has a lot to stake, our temple needs to distinguish the true from the false, and please wait for a while." Master Puhong stared at Mo Wen in front of him, and said in a loud voice, "Faxiang, go and get the sealed bodhicitta lamp!" ”
"Master at will." Mo Wen was calm, "If it weren't for my own experience, I would actually find it hard to believe that Shangguan Ce would do that kind of thing." ”
After a while, Fa Xiang walked in with a rusty bronze oil lamp.
"Master, the bodhicitta lamp oil is running out." Fa Xiang walked up to Master Puhong and whispered, "Uncle said that it would take about two quarters of an hour. ”
"That's enough." Master Puhong looked at Mo and asked, "Master Mo can organize the language first, and the time for testing the authenticity of the temple is limited." ”
"Mo Wen is ready to start at any time."
"Okay, Faxiang, palm lamp."
"Yes."
Just when Fa Xiang lit the worn-out bronze oil lamp, Mo Wen suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, the whole world seemed to be far away from him all of a sudden, leaving him alone floating in the endless void, countless messy pictures flashed in front of his eyes, but he couldn't remember a single one.
[Independent of all things...... Mo Wen whispered in his heart, [This is ...... Fate? 】
"Master Mo, Lord Mo Shi......" Seeing Mo Wen, Fa Xiang was suddenly stunned, and hurriedly woke up...... This lamp oil is very expensive.
Mo Wen suddenly came back to his senses, nodded and said, "This is how things are......"
……
"It seems that the Incense Valley does harbor evil intentions." Master Puhong clasped his hands together, "If that beast demon is really so terrifying, this temple will naturally go to Qingyun Mountain." ”
"Master, evacuate the residents of the Central Plains first." Mo Wen bowed his head, "This is indeed a catastrophe that is rare in 10,000 years, we need to be cautious." ”
"Mo Xiao is a compassionate donor." Master Puhong smiled with satisfaction, "This temple will arrange it well." ”
"Then the junior retired."
……
"Master." Seeing Mo Wen leaving, Fa Xiang finally asked his question, "If Dao Xuan Zhenren tampered with Lord Mo Shi's memory with the Qingyun Secret Method, wouldn't we be the people who wronged Incense Valley?" ”
"Disciple, the bodhicitta lamp is not used to test whether people are lying." Master Puhong explained, "This treasure is the legacy of a predecessor of this temple 1,200 years ago, and it is a treasure made by taking the Buddha's understanding of the past, present, and future three lives. ”
Speaking of this, Master Puhong sighed lightly: "Now that the Incense Valley has deviated from the right path and set off such a catastrophe, I don't know how many more lives and deaths, grievances and sufferings. ”
……
Southern Xinjiang, incense valley, mountain and river palace.
"It seems that Daoxuan Lao'er is really not ready to let us go." Yun Yilan stood with her hands in her hands, taking in the entire Incense Valley, "Are the disciples ready?" ”
"Senior brother, about eighty percent of the disciples are willing to leave with us, and the rest of the people are unwilling to go with us." Shangguan Ce, who was standing behind him, said in a low voice.
"I'll leave these people to you." Yun Yilan's face remained unchanged, "Let them go first, and then ......"
"Yes, senior brother."
Kongsang Mountain Ancient Road, He Jiaxiaodian.
Zhang Xiaofan took Xiao Ash here all day long and was drunk and dreamed of death.
The archsor's secret art of conjuring spirits ultimately failed, and the venerable old man fought to the last moment of his life, but his broken body did not allow him to finish the spell.
In fact, he only needs to hold on for another three seconds to resurrect Baguio...... Those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and the truth is so cruel, one step is the difference between life and death.
Seeing hope turn into despair, this kind of blow is not something that anyone can bear: the ghost king turned white for three days, and Zhang Xiaofan was disheartened and used alcohol to kill his sorrows.
Then, just like fate, he once again met Zhou Xian, who was home all over the world, and Xiaohuan, who admired him.
……
On the seventh day of the fourth month, the eleventh day after the beginning of summer, countless demon beasts rushed out of the 100,000 mountains and ravaged southern Xinjiang.
The beast god didn't have time to play hide and seek with them, and led the beast demon army all the way to the north, just on the tenth day of the fifth month, four days before the summer solstice, the beast god led thousands of demon beasts, passed through the unguarded incense valley, and invaded the Central Plains.
At the beginning, the casualties of the people were not large, after all, the news of southern Xinjiang had already come out, and the people who were threatened with their lives had already run away, and only a few people who did not believe in evil lost their lives.
Five days later, small villages began to be washed in the blood of demon beasts; Seven days later, according to the nearest big city in southern Xinjiang, Pingjiang City, the holy land of fur trading, was attacked by beast demons, and hundreds of thousands of people in the city were spared, and all of them fell into the mouth of beast demons.
The world was shocked.
Qingyun Sect Tianyin Temple and other righteous path sects have sent disciples to form a team to help the people, and the gang of guys from the Demon Sect have also stopped fighting openly and secretly on the righteous path, and they have fallen silent for the time being.
Soon, the Qingyun Sect and the Tianyin Temple will join forces in Qingyun Mountain, and the righteous sects in the world will flock to the Qingyun Mountain, and the Qingyun Seven Peaks will be overcrowded.
At night, the small bamboo peak mountain road.
"Senior Sister Wen Min." A little girl gently tugged at Wen Min's sleeve, "Why is Senior Sister Lu still staying on the moon platform, the wind is blowing so cold there." ”
Wen Min chuckled when she heard this, and gently touched the little girl's head: "Xiaoshi, don't worry about your Senior Sister Lu, with her cultivation at this time, this cold wind can't help her." ”
"Then why does Senior Sister Lu stay there so often?" The little girl's big eyes were shining with water, and she looked extremely cute, "Are you practicing?" ”
"Practice?" Wen Min sighed, "That's also a practice...... Torture your own practice. ”
In the shadows that these female disciples didn't pay attention to, a figure quietly left.
The mountain behind the small bamboo peak, the moon viewing platform.
Under the waning moon, Lu Xueqi danced the sword alone, and the cold sword light reflected her frosty face.
"Who?" Lu Xueqi's gorgeous dancing posture suddenly paused, and the blue light of Tianya gradually rose, pointing to the bamboo forest behind her.
"You...... Lost weight. Looking at this woman who was becoming more and more clear, Zhang Xiaofan felt a pain in his heart.
"Little ...... Every? Tianya trembled slightly, and Ruyu's face gradually became red.
……
"Including me, there are only four travelers left." Mo Wen, who was patrolling the sky above Qingyun Seven Peaks, sighed, "I don't know if those five guys went back by themselves or were eaten by the beast demon." ”
"This kind of calamity is both an opportunity and a challenge! But......" Mo Wen looked back at Tongtian Peak, which was shrouded in darkness, "I hope that Uncle Wan can help Master suppress the fierce spirit of the Immortals." ”
"Huh?" Mo Wen suddenly found that a blue light flashed under the small bamboo peak, [Intruder? What a familiar feeling...... It turned out to be him, this kid actually came tonight. 】
[But Li Xun's guy didn't know where to hide for a long time, and without the plot of courtship, what should they be like when they meet? ] Mo Wen rolled his eyes and followed with a wicked smile.
……
There was silence, the breeze blew occasionally, a gentle rustle sounded in the bamboo forest, and the cold moonlight shone on the two of them, blending their shadows together.
Then, the person who had been hiding and watching secretly for a long time couldn't hold his breath first.
"I said Xiaofan, why do you let me meet you every time you see your sister?" Mo Wen sighed and walked out of the bamboo forest. "When you decide, you decide, hesitation is not a good habit."
"Don't ask...... It's you again. Zhang Xiaofan's face was solemn, "You knew that Incense Valley would do such a thing?" ”
"All I know is what they're up to." Mo Wen spread his hands, "There was no evidence before, but now that there is evidence, the matter is irreparable." ”
"Now, Xiaofan." Mo Wen casually took out a fan and hid it in front of him, blocking his unnatural smile, "Didn't you secretly go to Qingyun Mountain to ask me these meaningless questions...... I'm on duty tonight, and I can take it as if you eloped with Senior Sister Lu. ”
"I ......" Zhang Xiaofan didn't know how to answer for a while.
……
In the end, he still didn't choose to elope, even if Lu Xueqi didn't ask the beautiful question...... After all, in his heart, there is always a pure land that no one can touch.
Two days later, Zhang Xiaofan returned to the Ghost King Sect, coinciding with the Cangsong Dao people coming to take refuge, the Ghost King learned from his mouth that the poison god had died three days ago, so he decided to lure the beast demon to destroy the Ten Thousand Poison Gate, and then Mr. Ghost suggested to the Ghost King that he sacrifice more than half of the disciples of the Ghost King Sect as bait to lure the He*Huan faction to participate in the war.
The ghost king follows it.
The bitter meat plan, a very simple plan, a simple plan that can be seen through by onlookers at a glance, but the authorities are blinded by the fatal temptation* of the Unification Demon Sect, and turn a blind eye to the great danger in front of them.
People die for money, birds die for food, even if Qin Wuyan is talented, he successfully resolved the interference of the Cangsong Dao people and unified the Ten Thousand Poison Gate, but he was still killed by the large group of beasts and demons introduced by the Ghost King into the Valley of the Poisonous Snake, and then ten thousand people led more than half of the ordinary sect disciples of the Ghost King Sect to come to the rescue, and the casualties were heavy......
The final result was: half of the ordinary disciples of the Ghost King Sect who were brought by 10,000 people to support the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect were killed and injured, and he was the only one who escaped; The vast majority of the He*Huan Sect and the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, even including the high-level people such as the Sanmiao Fairy, were all buried in the mouth of the beast demon, and only a few people escaped from this catastrophe......
Since then, among the Demon Sect, the Ghost King Sect has been dominant.
After that, 10,000 people went to the closed Huqi Mountain, and led the remaining disciples of the Ghost King Sect to retreat to the Holy Land of the Demon Sect - the Barbarian Temple; With his withdrawal, in the entire Central Plains, only Qingyun Mountain is left to withstand this peerless catastrophe.
A few days later, a team composed of elite disciples of the Qingyun Sect and Tianyin Temple descended the mountain to explore the abnormal movement of the beast demon army - the beast demon army that had been heading all the way to the north suddenly split into forty percent and killed to the west.
Mo Wen also set off with the team.
Along the way, there are dead towns and wastelands, road wrecks and bloody soil, and small groups of beast demons wander irregularly in this vast land, looking for humans to kill...... There are also the same kind.
And Mo Wen and his entourage are also very hard to avoid these guys who are wandering around - as the elite of the righteous sect, these ten or so people are all strong people with more than five stars...... But in the face of a community composed of tens of thousands of three-star and four-star demon beasts, their strength seemed so insignificant.
Moreover, they are here to find out the news.
After that, they still followed Xiao Yicai's suggestion: hang behind the large group of beasts and demons, and find the truth about their strange actions.
After a thrilling journey, they finally reached a valley covered with mist.
A valley full of corpses and the smell of rotting corpses.
In the valley, countless corpses are criss-crossed, both human and beast......
"All the dead disciples of the Ghost King Sect are disciples...... Wan Poison Gate, an important figure of the Hehuan faction...... All of them died here. After exploring the valley, Xiao Yicai summed up their information in a silent voice, "Demon Sect...... Basically scrapped. ”
"Not necessarily." Mo Wen looked at the three demon beast corpses as big as the water qilin in the valley and sneered, "I haven't seen any of the backbone of the Ghost King Sect. ”
Everyone's eyes were focused on Mo Wen.
Mo Wen retracted his gaze at the three giant corpses, slowly glanced at the high-level Demon Sect leaders who had died with the beast demons, and said slowly: "The sect master of the Ghost King Sect is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he will bury the main force here?" The Ghost King Sect has died of ordinary disciples, the Hexian Sect, and the big shots of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect are all lying here, so you can't see anything strange at all? ”
"You mean...... Help? Xiao Yicai swallowed.
"Peerless heroes, when it is." Mo Wen shook his head, "Now that we have found out the reason for the division of the beast demon army, we can go back, the current enemy is still the beast demon army that swept the world and the unfathomable beast god...... The Demon Sect has helped us share so much, we should be content. ”
……
Two days later, the Yuqing Palace.
"What? You said that the Ghost King Sect used half of its disciples as bait to lead the beast demon to destroy the Ten Thousand Poison Sect and the He*Huan Sect?! Dao Xuan Zhenren was very stunned after listening to Xiao Yicai's narration, and blurted out, "Have you checked it out?" ”
"Yes! Master. Xiao Yicai bowed, "We found the corpses of a large number of high-level figures of the He*Huan Sect and the Ten Thousand Poison Sect in that Poisonous Snake Valley, but we did not find the high-level of the Ghost King Sect. ”
[According to that, if there is no Zhuxian Sword Formation, then we monks alone will not be able to defeat it.] Dao Xuan Zhenren frowned, and secretly calculated in his heart, [In recent years, the Demon Sect has developed rapidly, and although its strength is still not as good as my righteous path, it is not far behind, plus the Incense Valley is ......]
"Don't ask, where do you say Xiao Fan will be now?" Taking advantage of the discussion among the people in the audience, Lin Jingyu asked softly.
"Now, the one who can resist the beast god and save the common people can only be my Qingyun's Zhuxian Sword Array." Mo asked what he asked, not what he answered, "The relationship between Dazhu Yimai and him, the relationship between the Zhuxian Sword Formation and him, and the relationship between you and me and him...... And the relationship between that person and him, do you think he will be far away from this Qingyun Mountain? ”
"Everyone, be quiet!" Dao Xuan Zhenren ended his thoughts, and said loudly: "Now the remnants of the Demon Sect are no longer important, right now the beasts and demons are raging, and the lives are ruined...... This matter is so big, I have to discuss it with Master Puhong first, you can first recuperate on my Qingyun Peaks, and when it comes to the big war, I will bother you to contribute more for the people of the world. ”
……
The Great War was approaching, but Mo Wen had been nesting in his hut, since he obtained the three volumes of the Book of Heaven, his cultivation had been steadily increasing, and he had even approached Shangguan Ce and Tian Buyi, who had been cultivating for hundreds of years, that is, the middle of the Seven Stars.
And now, Mo Wen is impacting the second layer of the Shangqing Realm, that is, the Terrain Realm.
Unlike those immortal cultivation novels that Mo Wenzhi had read before, breaking through a level would lead to violent storms, lightning and thunder, and other celestial anomalies, Mo Wen's rush process seemed very calm, without the slightest abnormality - the young man in the room sat quietly, feeling the rhythm of the aura of heaven and earth, and experiencing the rules of all things in the world.
Ten days later, Mo Wen broke through.
