Chapter 3: Dark Clouds
In the distance, mountains disappear in the clouds and mist. The constantly fluttering clouds brought a strange scene to this huge mountain range, as if adding a lot of vitality. รท
It has been a few days since He Yiming, Lu Zhengyi and others returned to Hengshan, although Yu Jinglei went to the realm of life and death and did not go with them, Xu Chengchang followed them to Hengshan.
On that day, before Yu Jinglei left, he introduced Xu Chengchang's origin. He is an outstanding rising star in the main vein of Tianchi Mountain, and at the age of more than forty, he has already passed the Xiangsheng Dual-System Exercise and reached the innate realm.
Although he was not like He Yiming, who completely relied on his own strength to break through the innate meridians, but had the elders in the sect bless him with the Dharma Protector Meridian, this was already a great achievement.
This departure from the mountain, of course, is to inform Yu Thunder about the deep mountain totem clan, but it also has the meaning of traveling the world. Therefore, after seeing Yu Jinglei, instead of returning to Tianchi Mountain, he followed He Yiming and others to Hengshan Yimai.
For his arrival, whether it is He Yiming, or the medicine Taoist and others, they are extremely welcome.
After the news that the totem clan was about to move from afar, a master of the innate realm like Xu Chengchang came. Naturally, the more the merrier.
Within a few days of returning to Hengshan, nothing major had happened in the mountain, although all this seemed to be peaceful, but He Yiming vaguely felt that this seemed to be a harbinger of a huge storm coming.
In the midst of his thoughts, a footstep woke him from his deep thought.
He looked up, only to see that the five innate powerhouses of Medicine Daoren, Lu Zhengyi, Lian Yi, Yu Xichen and Xu Chengchang had all gathered together and walked towards him.
Since Yu Jinglei is not on Hengshan, He Yiming, who has been promoted to the first line of heaven, is naturally the most noble person.
Therefore, if the medicine Taoist and the others wanted to discuss something together, they would undoubtedly have to go to his room.
As soon as he saw that they were all worried, as if they were facing a great enemy, He Yiming couldn't help but sink slightly in his heart, and he secretly said, "It's here." โ
Sure enough, after the people led by the medicine dao man came to him, the medicine dao man immediately said, "Elder He, I'm afraid that the people of the totem clan have already come nearby." โ
After He Yiming was promoted to the first line of heaven, the attitude of the medicine Dao people and others towards him had changed greatly.
In addition to that due respect, there was a deep and undisguised awe.
This has nothing to do with the individual's seniority, but it is the attitude that everyone naturally expresses when facing the strong.
"Elder Yao, but you have found their traces?" He Yiming asked in a deep voice.
"Didn't find it. The Medicine Daoist smiled bitterly and said, "But several of our disciples who were in charge of going out to the mountains to collect medicine and cultivate recently suddenly lost contact. โ
He Yiming raised his eyebrows lightly and asked, "How many people are missing." โ
"So far, six people are missing. The medicine Taoist looked solemn and said, "I have ordered all the disciples not to allow it and not to go down the mountain. โ
He Yiming had a little calculation in his heart, and immediately knew that the people of the totem clan would definitely arrive.
The Yokoyama line is located deep in the mountains. The probability of encountering danger here is much greater than that outside the mountains. There have been cases of disciples who went missing and eventually found dead.
However, after all, this is only a very small number, sometimes only once in a few years, and most of them are some half-grown children, women and children. But now that six have disappeared all at once, it means that there must be an external force intervening.
"Can you find them?" He Yiming asked the most crucial question.
The medicine man smiled bitterly and said, "We are all people who live in the mountains all year round, and we are all extremely familiar with the jungle. However, this time, the people of the totem tribe were obviously more familiar with the situation in the mountains and jungles than we did, and we really couldn't find their hiding place. โ
He Yiming's brows furrowed, facing such an enemy is the real headache.
With a deep sigh, He Yiming suddenly discovered the attitude of the medicine Taoist on the other side, and his heart moved slightly, "Have you thought of a solution?"
The medicine man hurriedly said, "A few of us have discussed some countermeasures, and we have to ask Elder He to decide." โ
He Yiming's eyes lit up slightly, and he said, "Say it quickly." โ
His cultivation above the martial arts path was indeed more than a cut above the five innate powerhouses present. But when it comes to experience, it's out of reach. If even the medicine Taoist and others can't think of a proper solution. Then He Yiming can only stare dryly.
No one is an all-rounder, even He Yiming, who has experienced adventures at the bottom of the lake, is only a little more powerful in martial arts.
The medicine man said solemnly: "The method we discussed is to shrink and strictly prevent it, and gather all the people from several small hills nearby into five important peaks. And on each peak, there is a master in charge, if there is a crisis, as long as the internal strength is called, you can notify the rest of the peaks. In this way, it is guaranteed that the losses can be minimized, and even if the warriors of the totem clan cannot be captured, at least they will be safe. โ
He Yiming hesitated for a moment and said, "What about the six missing disciples?"
The medicine man's face turned pale, and he said, "They ...... Let's hope they're safe and sound. โ
He Yiming immediately understood that the Medicine Dao Man was going to give up these six disciples. He wanted to oppose it, but he knew that this was undoubtedly the best way to deal with it now.
And since those six disciples have disappeared, the result must be more than lucky.
Sighing softly, He Yiming said, "Since you have already discussed it, then let's do it like this." He paused and said, "From today on, I will go to the top of the main peak and live with my grandfather and uncle. โ
Yao Dao people and others all have their foreheads, and when this inexplicable strong enemy is pressing, the first thing He Yiming thinks about is his relatives, which is also understandable. And the main peak is undoubtedly the shortest distance from the other four peaks. It is of course the most appropriate thing to let the strongest of the sect sit there.
After sending off the medicine man, He Yiming also sighed in his heart, the status of the first-line heavenly powerhouse is different in the Hengshan lineage.
If he was only the former Hundred Scattered Heaven powerhouse. Then after the medicine man and the others finished discussing, the most they could do was to send one person to inform him that it was enough, where would there be five people to come and tell him like today.
This is what the Medicine Dao people mean by expressing respect to themselves, or rather, what they want to respect is not He Yiming, but his martial arts cultivation.
After cleaning up a little, He Yiming immediately went to the main peak.
In the huge courtyard above the main peak, He Wude was watching He Quanxin practice.
Since Elder He promulgated the new order, the entire Hengshan has been rumored to be cautious and vigilant everywhere. Although the names of the totem clan are relatively unfamiliar, after knowing their origins, no one dares to take them lightly. In particular, the experience of the disappearance of the six companions made countless people feel a little chill and fear.
However, although the atmosphere of the Yokoyama side has changed, He Quanxin, who is halfway up the main peak, is still not affected in the slightest.
The medicine Daoist and others had a strict order not to approach this place and disturb He Quanxin, who was cultivating wholeheartedly,
If he knew that Hengshan was suffering a catastrophe at this time, he would definitely not have the possibility of continuing to cultivate in silence.
He Yiming came to this manor and exchanged a look with his grandfather, and the old man nodded slightly. His face was also quite solemn. Obviously, the news of the Totem Clan's invasion was not able to hide from his old man.
Nodding slightly, He Yiming made a gesture that I am here, you can rest assured, and He Yiming's face improved.
In He Yiming's body, there seems to be a kind of power, that is, after getting along with him for a long time, people will have extremely strong confidence in him, even He Wude is no exception.
In this huge courtyard, a room was randomly selected, and He Yiming lived in it.
He thought about it for a moment. Silently sat down.
The moment he sat down, his whole person's bearing suddenly changed.
In his mind, the scene of blessing Mu Zhanhao's meridian protector and impacting the innate realm immediately appeared.
Although Mu Zhanhao's strength was nothing in his eyes, the three-line exercises in his body that were in the same vein benefited He Yiming a lot.
After fighting with Mu Zhanhao and observing the circulation of his three-line internal strength, He Yiming combined his own experience and had a little bit of his own opinion on condensing the tangible flower.
Nowadays, the martial arts that He Yiming is best at are the wind, rain, clouds, and ice exercises.
Although he also practiced the exercises of the other systems, in comparison, he still had the most profound attainments above these systems.
Whether it is wind, rain, clouds and mist, or ice exercises, they are all closely related to the water system in the five elements. In this case, if you want to condense the flower of the five elements, you naturally have to choose the flower of water.
Although he closed his eyes, it did not affect He Yiming's perception of the outside world at all.
In his body, the true qi of the water system slowly gathered, and it gradually became thick and powerful, and even finally boiled.
The Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi from the outside world poured into his body like a tide, and slowly, even his body began to ripple with a power that seemed to be visible, but could not be touched.
This fluctuation started from his body and spread little by little, like a breeze caressing the flowers and plants. And He Yiming's body is faint, with a strange feeling of being one with heaven and earth.
He Wude, who was in the courtyard, frowned, he faintly felt that there seemed to be some strange changes nearby, but he looked up and searched for a while, but found nothing. I couldn't help but shake my head, the secret Dao people are old, and they are really useless.
In the Hengshan, the other five powerhouses of the Hundred Scattered Heavens noticed this power fluctuation one after another.
Unlike Hewude, they were able to perceive the subtle changes expressed by the power of heaven and earth. Although they still don't understand what this change really represents. But they understand who caused the change.
For a while, the hearts of the five people were not at peace, and the four people in Hengshan were all smiling. They all know that only the stronger this person is, the more prosperous the Hengshan lineage will be.
And Xu Chengchang, who came from Tianchi Mountain, looked in a certain direction and was silent.
It seems that the rise of the Hengshan Pulse is already unstoppable, and when I go back to see the master in the future, I must mention this matter.
And almost at the same time, at the foot of Yokoyama, an old man in a strange costume frowned, he looked in the direction of Yokoyama, his face gloomy and did not speak.
At his feet, there was a giant wolf with a body length of more than three meters, the eyes of the giant wolf were blue and translucent, the mouth was slightly open, the tongue was bright red and bloody, and there was still a trace of flesh between its teeth. And in a corner not far from it, there was little left of a corpse, and the tattered costume worn on this corpse could vaguely be seen to be the unique costume of Yokoyama Ichimai.
Behind him, six black-clad men stood respectfully. Their eyes as they looked at the giant wolf were full of awe and adoration.
The old man snorted lightly, as if he was talking to himself: "The breath is indeed very strong, but as long as you can't discover the concealment technique of our wolf clan, no matter how strong you are, you will have a fart." Hmph, give me the order to go down the mountain tonight. โ
Behind him, the six black-clothed men responded in unison, although there were only six of them, they had a fierce and powerful momentum.
โปโปโปโป
A large amount of true qi entered He Yiming's body, and with a thought in his heart, he gently opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of water vapor.
This water vapor contains the powerful true qi that He Yiming has accumulated, and it seems to be condensed at this moment, revealing a strange smell.
Between heaven and earth, it seemed that an endless water system of power poured into He Yiming's body, and then through his mouth, it continued to pour into the virtual, nondescript flower in the void.
The two flowers that were spit out by the thunder in the past are not only stable in form, but also look vivid and vivid.
But the flower that came out of He Yiming at this moment was undoubtedly a stump and a willow, dim and dull. And these barely assembled petals are even more shaky, as if they will melt away at any time.
A bead of sweat faintly appeared on He Yiming's head, since he was promoted to the innate realm, it seemed that he had never been so embarrassed.
Although the qi of heaven and earth was still frantically pouring into his body, in He Yiming's feelings, this speed was still not enough, far from enough.
Although the true qi that erupted from his mouth was powerful, the flower that was maintained in mid-air dissipated faster.
After one petal fell, he had just made up for one when two more fell. It was not easy to make up for these two sides, but there was a problem on the other side.
He seems to have become a filler, flocking to wherever there is a crisis.
Slowly, the beads of sweat on his forehead increased, and above his head, there was a white gas like a chimney. This is the reason why he has gathered his true qi to the extreme.
However, no matter how much he tried to mobilize his true qi, it seemed that a white flower in mid-air could not be sustained.
"Smack......
It seemed that I heard a sound in my ears, and then, the flower that was originally crumbling finally burst completely and disappeared without a trace.
This failure is not only the relationship between the lack of true qi, but also when condensing, his movements are also extremely rusty, which is also one of the major reasons for the failure.
He Yiming sighed, although there was a little regret, but it was reasonable that he did not succeed.
If Sanhua condensation was really that easy, he would feel overwhelmed.
After all, not every time you can have that good luck.
However, after this process of cohesion attempt, He Yiming has also found a certain amount of experience, and he believes that as long as he continues to accumulate experience and try, he will be able to successfully condense sooner or later.
Moreover, what he wants to condense is not a single line of flowers, but a three-line flower, a three-legged three-legged flower.
His ears twitched for a moment, and he finally determined that there was no way anyone could sneak in.
He Yiming took off the silver ring from his chest and instilled a huge amount of true qi into it, and a moment later, a spatial world appeared in front of him.
Reaching inside, he pulled out a stack of quaint books. Above these collections, there are three large characters that shine brightly.
After so many years of collecting, the colors on it still haven't changed much, and even an idiot knows that these books are absolutely priceless.
His fingers gently stroked these three words, and He Yiming's mouth whispered softly: "Blind eyes." โ
Flipping through the book, He Yiming began to read it carefully.
This is the secret he found from Sima Yin after he killed him.
He had personally tried the power of the blinding method, even if Sima Yin had broken an arm, he still used it superbly. If it weren't for this kind of trick, how could he have chased He Yiming for so long.
In fact, he had preliminarily browsed this technique in the cave a few months ago, but the real cultivation was still the first time.
Looking at the content recorded on it word by word, He Yiming sometimes frowned and pondered, sometimes suddenly realized, and sometimes puzzled.
After a long time, he still sighed in disappointment, this kind of secret art is best used in such a complex environment as the mountains and forests, so that it can exert its greatest power.
Turning his eyes, although his room is not small, it is simple and clear. If you want to train here, it's impossible.
After hesitating for a moment, He Yiming finally dispelled the idea of going out to practice this thaumaturgy.
Now that the environment outside is sinister, Uncle is working hard to cultivate, so he must not be disturbed.
He slowly closed his eyes again, while silently reciting the mantra of the blinding method in his heart, while carefully understanding the formation and change of the power of heaven and earth, it seemed that he was completely addicted to it......
