Turning around, raising his hand, Xia Xiao's slender fingers held the bamboo slip coming towards him, just by looking at the shape, he knew what was in it, and the gaze cast at Wang Ling was full of gratitude and surprise.

"Thank you. ”

"Come on, stay alive. ”

Wang Ling didn't know what kind of look to face Xia Xiao, so his face was expressionless. But the latter held the bamboo tube and turned to continue his journey. For Wang Ling, it was really hard to imagine what Xia Xiao had to face, in fact, he himself was not clear, only a vague impression was a general impression, it was nothing more than a bizarre demon and a monster. But now he is a demon, a man, and a demon, and he is no worse than them.

"What's inside?"

"Can't you see it?"

Ah Candle looked at it for a long time, shook her head, what can you see just by looking at it? She moved her sensitive little nose and sniffed it, causing Xia Xiao to give her a blank look.

"What looks?"

After Ah Candle finished speaking, he was about to make a move, and hammered his fist on Xia Xiao's shoulder, and in the bamboo tube that could be opened, it was a scroll full of inscription runes as Xia Xiao thought. Although there are only fire rune arrays among them, you may feel their strength, it is estimated that they are also 100,000 lines, and there are even a few extremely exaggerated rune arrays, which can absorb Xia Xiao's vitality in an instant.

With the rune array, Xia Xiao's confidence was obviously enough, and he and Ah Candle continued to walk on the wasteland, as if leading dozens of rune arrays.

The faster and longer he walked, the closer Xia Xiao got to Tanghua Temple, but he really didn't dare to go straight to it, so he and Ah Candle went around a huge bend. As soon as they left, Xia Xiao and Ah Candle disappeared in everyone's eyes like evaporation from the world, and they had more camouflage ability than chameleons.

The five elders of the Heavenly Sect broke free and angrily questioned the four members of the academy, they were looking for Xia Xiao and Ah Candle, and the injuries on their bodies made it looked like they had just fought a battle. But the suspicion of the Heavenly Sect made them even more controversial. But the attitude of these elders only brought the white eyes and anger of the academy people, and they looked like they were in charge of the overall situation, who did they show it?

The five elders summoned stronger cultivators, but instead of continuing to search, it was better to stand on the beach and wait for them. This idea soon became a reality, and a group of people on the sea cliff stood ten miles apart, waiting for Xia Xiao, not knowing from which position he would come.

"It would have been better if he had rushed straight into the South China Sea. ”

"He also needs vitality, his previous state is not enough to rush directly into the Netherworld Sea and face unknown dangers, so he is recovering and hurrying at the same time, it can be said that he is cautious, but he is still too confident, and the gap in strength cannot be made up with his brain many times, not to mention that I am not a waste material like you!"

In addition to the deputy sect master of Old Man Pan, the cultivator in front of him is the strongest, his surname is Yan Mingmeng, at this time, he holds his hands on his chest, and the elder next to him who has just fought with Xia Xiao does not dare to refute or be angry when he hears it, only nods.

It was getting dark, the wasteland fell into a deeper silence, everything seemed to be dead, and Xia Xiao and Ah Candle also stopped. Now is the time to regain his strength, and he must fill every part of his body with vitality in order to break through.

Sitting cross-legged, Xia Xiao and Ah Candle sealed together, and the speed at which they could absorb the vitality of heaven and earth was very slow. Fortunately, Xia Xiao was able to absorb it through the four elements together, and there was still a lot of vitality in Ah Candle's body, so he had to hurry up at midnight.

"Shall we rush straight over?"

"Hmm!"

Xia Xiao knew that it was very dangerous, but when he nodded heavily, he looked at Ah Candle and asked her:

"Are you afraid?"

"This girl is not afraid. ”

Ah Candle said this while holding Xia Xiao's hand hard, she was not afraid of being strange, but she still followed Xia Xiao towards the south. After walking only a few hundred meters, in the vast darkness, Xia Xiao saw that two streams of living qi were sent by the powerful Yuan Qi Twisting Space.

With a lock of brows, Xia Xiao raised his arm, protected Ah Candle, pulled out a sharp knife with one hand, and pointed straight at the darkness in front of him. But what appeared in the very short field of vision were two little monks who were not yet their chests, they were carrying lanterns, without a bit of murderous aura, and they did not put any pressure on Xia Xiao and Ah Candle.

If it was in the past, Xia Xiao and Ah Candle didn't mind sending them home, but now it's okay, so they want to hide in the darkness and leave, but before they left, the little monk was already in a tone and said:

"Donor, please stay. ”

It seems that these two little monks came specifically for themselves, Xia Xiao turned around, and one of the little monks was a little familiar.

Although the two little monks are almost the same in age, their appearance is very different, one has skin like jade, is tall and handsome, has delicate facial features, elegant manners, but does not lose anger, at first glance is a person who is active but does not lose wisdom. The little monk beside him is much shorter, like a ball of black charcoal, and he can't see his expression clearly, and he is even more slightly embarrassed at this time, but Xia Xiao has seen him on the barbarian grassland of the Goulong Bang clan, and he is not a living person, but he doesn't know the law name.

Seeing the latter, Xia Xiao and Ah Candle stopped very tacitly and asked him:

"What's the matter?"

"The host asked us to come to you. ”

"What are you trying to do to persuade us to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot?"

"No, I want to see Master one last time. ”

Xia Xiao's secret ridicule and the words of the little black charcoal monk formed a stark contrast, and the former seemed like a big bastard who was unforgiving. But the little monk suddenly felt that Xia Xiao was different from other demons, in fact, he had never seen a demon, he didn't have that chance, all the demons were eliminated by the master monks and law enforcement practitioners in the temple. But Xia Xiao is no different from a human now, which makes him overwhelmed by his thoughts about eliminating demons for a moment.

Xuan Miao, who was already cranky, observed Xia Xiao's every move, and saw the emotion in his eyes, forgetting the words he had prepared earlier.

"He helped me suppress my demonic nature, and I am grateful to him, but I don't know how to make you see your predecessors again. ”

"I have my own way, but before I do, I have something to tell you about Master, which Master has given me. ”

"What's the matter?"

It was not Xia Xiao who asked this, but the mysterious little monk, who seemed a little anxious, and was extremely immature compared to the calm of the little black charcoal monk. This is also the reason why many monks do not like him, Xuan Miao sometimes does not look like a monk, but the little black charcoal monk always firmly believes in his words and deeds, any action is practice, so when Xuyun left, he just cried as an accompanying little monk, and then packed his luggage, crossed thousands of mountains and rivers alone, and returned to the temple.

"Sit down. ”

Xia Xiao put the knife and backpack aside to show that he was not a threat. When the little monk was still hesitating, the little black charcoal monk had already sat down cross-legged.

"Isn't that dangerous?"

Xuan Miao came to the little monk and asked him, but he said lightly:

"We have been heading east before, and it stands to reason that we will not meet them, they will not be so stupid, and they have been walking in the direction of Tanghua Temple. But the presiding master sent us out and made us meet, and we will certainly not let anyone else interfere with our conversation, and we can rest assured that they are not dangerous. ”

The little black carbon monk is the "he" in the mouth of the host, he is not a big man in Tanghua Temple, and in the eyes of many monks, he is not one of the people who can host in the future, but he has learned enough things in Xuyun, and now as soon as the latter leaves, he is another Xuyun. Although it is difficult to speak as bluntly as he is, and even pop out a few swear words, he can do things in a clear manner.

Ignoring his gaze, Xuan Miao looked at Xia Xiao, he didn't seem to be the kind of good person who was harmless to humans and animals. But the danger he was worried about was different from what the little black charcoal monk said, but there was a host, and he was too worried.

"Speak. ”

Xia Xiao looked at him, remembering the years when he was in the Goulong Bang Clan, when the appearance of the little black charcoal monk did not change much as now, but he was more mature, and his speech became more reasonable, and even evocative. He sat and watched, and listened.

"Master said that if you walk on the edge of the abyss, you are more likely to fall than others, and it turns out that He is right. And after falling in, no matter what you see, don't forget where you came from, there will be a thousand lights waiting for you to go back. And then there's ...... Master saw the other side of the darkness. ”

"As early as that year, after we met, Master left a last word, most of which were related to you. In Master's words, you are the one who came from afar, the incarnation of the ancestor of the spiritual contract, and no matter what this being represents, you have to go through hardships that others have not experienced. On the other side of the darkness is the extremely exaggerated and huge ambition related to the Optimus Sect. ”

The previous words were not as good as the last three words, which made Xia Xiao frown and asked:

"Because of the special identity of the seniors, I didn't tell the world?"

The little black charcoal monk nodded, like the monk who fell into the demon path like the master, Tanghua Temple can no longer accommodate him, his range of activities is only the grassland of the Goulong Bang clan, who wants to believe what he said?

On the contrary, if this sentence is known to others, I am afraid that it will attract a wild bombardment from the Optimus Sect. Tanghua Temple is isolated from the world, and he doesn't want to cause that kind of trouble because of the void clouds, but this matter was taken over by Xia Xiao because he fell into the demon path. Xia Xiao was originally suspicious of the Qingtian Sect, but now because of the words left by the predecessors of Xuyun, he was even more convinced that they had a problem, so he thought about investigating it. But no matter what you do, you have to deal with this side first.

Master also said that the end of the demonic path may not be what he thought. ”

"What do you mean?"

After the master fell into the demon path, he didn't dare to take a step, but the call on the other side was very strong, he originally thought it was bad, but with the formation of the demonic qi in his body, his feeling became clearer and clearer, like a road that became stronger and could go up the mountain. ”

This kind of words became more and more vague the more he said, but what Xuyun said to the little black charcoal monk at that time was something like this, and he didn't know it, hoping that Xia Xiao would understand it thoroughly, but the latter pondered for a long time and asked rhetorically:

"Have you ever cleared the clouds?"

The little black charcoal monk shook his head.

"Master has been in the clouds. ”

"Then I won't talk too much nonsense, I understand what my predecessors mean, I will investigate the Qingtian Sect afterwards, and I will also try to stay true to my original intention in the Demon Dao. But if there is nothing else to do, we will have to set off, and it is useless to delay any longer. ”

Having said that, Xia Xiao still made a big bow to express his gratitude, but when he and Ah Candle were about to leave, the little black charcoal monk said:

"Wait a minute, I want to meet with Master. ”

The little black charcoal monk said that he had a way, but everything he did was just to complete the will left by the master, but would the master appear? He didn't know, and Xia Xiao didn't know, just listened to his command and sat down on the ground again.

"Master, you once said that I would find your relics no matter whether I return or not, and now that I have found it, please show up and give your disciples guidance. ”

The little monk muttered to himself, his hands were sealed, and some kind of mysterious Buddha seal was cast with extremely weak vitality. The whole process was a little difficult, but soon, Xia Xiao's body seemed to be being pulled up, and immediately the vitality began to surge. The strands of golden light continue to converge into a golden stream, which is extremely dazzling at night. They are extremely supple and extremely pure, and slowly enter the body of the little black charcoal monk.

This vitality does not belong to Xia Xiao, but comes from the relics left by the void clouds, which allows Xia Xiao to suppress his demonic nature, and can walk in the night wasteland, and most importantly, it leaves a lot of legacy for the little monk.

The two little monks looked at it incredulously, it was not easy to leave such a pure vitality after passing away, but the merits of the Xuyun monk were unimaginable and impossible for ordinary monks to do.

The stream on the chest of the little black charcoal monk has not been broken for a long time, and he has watched for a long time, and a drop of crystal tears reflects the fat face of the void cloud. The latter was staring at him, a world away, but his eyes were full of worry. Although Xuyun is a monk, before his death, he still regarded the little coal monk as his relative, and the only person he cared about was him.

The small stream in his chest carried a lot of thoughts, which made the little monk personally experience the sorrow of the master. He once regarded the common people as everything, saving the dead and helping the wounded, and doing everything that a monk should do, but the great wilderness did not have a place for him, he may not have left the barbarian grassland for a long time, and even when he died, he died in the distance of Tanghua Temple, and did not come back to look at the yellow fruit tree that he had in mind.

All of Xuyun's hopes were pinned on the little black charcoal monk, although he often taught the latter, and even bullied him, but Xuyun knew that he would leave sooner or later. Before he left, he wanted the little black charcoal monk to have the ability to survive. Monks are not escaping from the red dust, chanting sutras, and knocking on wooden fish to realize their own value. On the contrary, they have to endure the suffering of sentient beings in order to bring peace to sentient beings.

After Xuyun left, the little monk behaved very calmly, and he returned to Tanghua Temple alone, putting down the black pot that he often carried. The old monk in the temple saw it and didn't know how to comfort him. But he didn't need comfort, he knew that his master had been liberated, but this kind of emotion, Xuyun couldn't feel it, and this short-lived consciousness was far inferior to the main body.

A person whose consciousness has been eroded by demonic energy is destined to be regarded as a mad dog by many masters and monks of Tanghua Temple, but Xuyun is burning himself, and at the last moment of his death, he still took a lot of consideration. In this way, the void cloud became three parts, one was in the Devil's Plain, and the stone statue of the giant Buddha that was as high as the sky looked up at the north of the Great Wilderness. Second, in Xia Xiao's body, help him suppress the demonic qi and help him calm down. The three are in the body of the little black charcoal monk, turning into his vitality and helping him to practice.

At this moment, in a deep room in Tanghua Temple, an earthy yellow flame among hundreds of lamps and candles finally extinguished the last bit of spark. The little black charcoal monk's eyes then opened, some of them panicked, some of them urgent, as if they had an extremely strong desire for something, and they had to get it.

"Let's go!"
