Outside the sect, above the reckless mountains, under the covered sky, a monk was flying all the way.

Looking at the direction of his flight, he was probably returning to the sect after completing the dispatch outside the sect.

This monk's name is called Yan Jing, and he is a newly emerging figure among the many Qi refining disciples in the sect, this person is not tall in stature, ordinary in appearance, and has a round face that is ordinary, only above the plump cheekbones, under the light and short eyebrows, those vigilant and bright eyes can attract people's attention. Because he has always been low-key, there are not many people who know him, but as long as people who know him, they all have three points of curiosity, three points of envy and a little bit of inexplicable fear of this person.

The reason why people are like this is because Yan Jing's talent in cultivation is barely considered to be a middle-class talent, although the time to enter the sect is not short, but he has been lingering under the small five levels because he has not been able to break through to the fifth layer of qi refining, but it is said that he later had an adventure outside the sect and seems to have met a mysterious person, and he has cultivated by leaps and bounds in less than two years, not only breaking through the shackles of the small five levels, but also advancing all the way, and a few months ago he actually experienced another breakthrough, Becoming an eighth-level Qi Refining Cultivator, at this time, he had become a high-level Qi Refining Cultivator who was feared and envied in the eyes of others.

According to the rules of the Five Spirits Sect, the monks of the first and second layers of qi refining cannot leave the sect, so they do not care, and the monks of the third and fourth layers of qi refining are regarded as low-level monks, the cultivators of the fifth, sixth, and seventh layers of qi refining are regarded as middle-level monks, and the eighth and ninth layers of qi refining are high-level monks of qi refining.

Yan Jing looks like he is in his twenties, which is the age of youth and vigor, of course, the age of a monk cannot be taken by appearance, Yan Jing's actual age has long passed his old age in the world, but in this cultivation world, his age is just equivalent to a toddler, the reason why he looks like this is just that he has taken the effect of Zhuyan Pill.

In fact, even the mentality of the monk cannot be compared with the world, and if the mortals in the world are already dying of old age and have experienced the ups and downs of a lifetime, they will either be teasing their grandchildren and enjoying their old age at this time, or they will be sick in bed, looking at the world that is about to abandon him with cloudy eyes. The only thing that the monks are different, firstly, the people in the cultivation world rarely experience the human feelings of the world, and they do not have much experience in the vicissitudes of things being human beings and the death of the deceased, and secondly, not to mention Yan Jing's age at this time, even if those monks who are more than 100 years old and have cultivated far more than him, they are still like ignorant and curious children in this cultivation world.

After all, the gap between the cultivation world and the mundane is too huge!

Yan Jing hurried back to the sect today to have something to do.

While he was flying, passing by the top of a mountain, Yan was shocked and suddenly heard someone calling out loudly, as if calling him.

"Senior Brother Yan, Senior Brother Yan!"

Slowing down, Yan Jing followed the voice and looked over.

Four figures flew up from the top of the mountain, coming towards him, and kept saying in a loud voice: "Oh, sure enough, it's Senior Brother Yan, I didn't expect to meet you outside the sect." ”

Among the four people who flew over, the first one Yan Jing knew each other, and the other three were all unfamiliar faces.

The name of the person he knew was Wang Lingzhong, who was the same age as Yan Jing, and he had entered the Five Spirits Sect together, and his cultivation was in the middle level of Qi refining.

However, when Wang Lingzhong flew closer, he could see that this person's face looked much older than Yan Jing, but a middle-aged man who was obscene and sad, he came to Yan Jing's face, unabashedly squeezed out a somewhat flattering smile, and said:

"It's really Senior Brother Yan! I haven't seen you for a long time, Senior Brother Yan has always been good? A few days ago, I also came to visit the sect, only then did I know that Senior Brother Yan was out of the sect, and I was very sorry for my junior brother, but I didn't expect to meet here today, what a blessing! Come on, come on, this is the Senior Brother Yan I told you about, come and see you. ”

The latter sentence was Wang Lingzhong turned his head to the three people who followed him, and the three people heard Wang Lingzhong talk about some things about Yan Jing, and saw that this person was a high-ranking monk, and after hearing Wang Lingzhong's words, they hurriedly saluted.

However, this sentence made Yan Jing faintly unhappy in his heart.

He has always acted unassumingly, and he is even more cautious and low-key, only thinking that he can be unnoticed by everyone, this Wang Lingzhong boasted himself in front of others, and this kind of behavior made him unhappy in his heart, so he was ready to throw him away with a few perfunctory words at will, and then warn him a few words in the future, not to talk about his own affairs to others.

Noticing the displeasure in Yan Jing's eyes, Wang Lingzhong knew what he was doing wrong, so he asked with a smile:

"Senior Brother Yan, where are you going?"

"When the matter is done, it is natural to return to the sect."

"Oh, what a coincidence!" Wang Lingzhong's face showed a little joy, "I have also finished the dispatch of the Worship Academy, and we are about to rush back to the sect, since Senior Brother Yan is going back, then why don't we go all the way, or maybe the senior brother can ask Senior Brother Yan for advice on the way?" ”

After saying this, the three people behind Wang Lingzhong had strange expressions, the four of them had obviously just left the sect, and they had done one or two of the dispatches they received, but it would take a while to finish it, why did this Senior Brother Wang say that the dispatch was done when he saw this Senior Brother Yan? I have to follow him all the way back to the sect, what does he think?

The three of them were about to open their mouths to ask questions, but they were forced to shut up by Wang Lingzhong's turning head and glaring at him, so they only looked at him in wonder behind them.

Yan was shocked and smiled slightly, he naturally knew in his heart what this Wang Lingzhong wanted to do. This person didn't know where and from whose mouth he heard some of his own rumors, only when he was acquainted with a nobleman, so he could have such a breakthrough in cultivation, and since then he has often come to pester himself, not only good things but also some gifts from time to time, just ask himself to help him introduce it.

It's not bad to think about, but at this time I still have something to do, where is there time to quarrel with him, and at that moment Yan Jing shirked that he had something to do, and wanted to get rid of this Wang Lingzhong.

It's a pity that this Wang Lingzhong is like a piece of kraft candy when he entangles people, as long as it sticks to it, it is difficult to get rid of it, and as soon as he heard that Yan was shocked and had something to do, he immediately volunteered to help. Speaking of which, Yan Jing and this Wang Lingzhong entered the Five Spirits Sect together, and they had some friendship in the past, plus he visited and gave gifts from time to time later, Yan Jing couldn't shirk it, so he could only return to the sect with him.

The three people who followed behind Wang Lingzhong didn't know what to do, when they saw a look from him looking back, as if there was some benefit to following this person, they didn't speak anymore, and only flew in the direction of the sect with Wang Lingzhong and that Senior Brother Yan.

Along the way, Wang Lingzhong's mouth was not closed, and he kept chattering with Yan Jing, and Yan Jing was a little headache by his noise, often Wang Lingzhong asked ten sentences before he had a match to answer a sentence, but this did not affect Wang Lingzhong's mood at all, and he kept talking.

The five of them were attracted by the movement below as they flew over a valley, and only then did Wang Lingzhong shut up.

In the dense mountains and forests of the valley below, the sound of fierce fighting was heard.

One of the people who followed Wang Lingzhong spoke: "Huh? Is this someone fighting here or is it dealing with some monster? ”

Wang Lingzhong's eyes turned, stared at the mountains and forests below and said, "I want to know, go down and take a look." ”

Yan was shocked and smiled in his heart, and secretly said that this guy really can't forget to do this kind of thing, where is he curious, but he just wants to go over and see if there is anything cheap to take advantage of.

Seeing the look in Yan's eyes, Wang Lingzhong knew that the calculation in his heart was seen through by this Senior Brother Yan, but he didn't care, but instead smiled and said, "Senior Brother Yan, why don't we go over and take a look, if we can help them, it will be a gesture." ”

Yan Jing said: "It's okay, I'm also curious about what can be here, and by the way, let's also take a look at Senior Brother Wang's methods." ”

Hearing Yan Jing say this, Wang Lingzhong smiled again, and flew down first, following the place where the sound of the battle came from.

……

In the mountains and forests, where the sound came, it seemed that the battle had been going on for some time, and several hugging trees lay down horizontally, forming a small clearing in the mountains and forests, and looking at the fractures of the big trees, some of the burrs were broken vigorously, and some of the fractures were smooth and seemed to have been cut by sharp blades.

In the clearing, three strange-looking monster beasts are fighting with five monks, the monster beast has two long horns like a goat, the pair of black horns are thick and long, a spiral against the head both protects its head and stretches straight forward, like two sharp short spears, a strange long face, when roaring, you can almost see with the naked eye a wave of sound suddenly rushed out, making the grass and trees fall to the ground, at this time you can also see its full mouth of sharp teeth and a long red tongue, the most strange thing is that this monster beast has only one eye, Born in the middle of his forehead, his eyes blinked, and his yellow-brown eyes were like hourglasses, and there was a thin vertical black line in the middle, which was as chilling as a snake's eyes.

These three demon beasts are strong with four hooves, and when they run, the earth is flying, and their speed is not inferior to that of monks, and in the blink of an eye, those two black and sharp black horns can stab in front of them, and if they can't dodge, they will definitely be able to penetrate people, fork up, and then throw them out as soon as they raise their heads; Or a loud roar suddenly, as long as it is affected by this roar, people will be like being hit in the chest by a heavy hammer, and they will definitely suffer a lot of damage, plus it has rough skin and thick flesh, irritable and reckless, and is not afraid of death, so the five monks who fought with these three demon beasts could not take them down for a while, but had to use their own body to avoid the collision of these three demon beasts, and beware of their roars from time to time, so as not to be injured by the sound waves.

But even so, it is not easy for these three demon beasts to work together to injure these five monks, although these five people have been on the defensive now, defending more and attacking less, but these five people are not chaotic at all in terms of defense or offensive rules, whenever the three demon beasts rush towards one person together, the rest of the people can always be on the side to contain it, so that it cannot attack together, or give a reminder in advance, dodge the roar of the demon beast, several attacks are also to attract the attention of the two demon beasts each, and the other three work together to deal with one, but this demon beast is too fast, and they didn't dare to directly confront the two sharp horns of the demon beast, so they tried several times but failed to make a contribution.

Above the clearing, the figures flashed, roaring again and again, and a burst of sword light and fire continued.

As he flew there, Yan was shocked to notice that one of the five monks glanced back vigilantly and then turned back, and then the other four looked at each other during the battle.

It's a few vigilant guys, Yan said secretly.

Wang Lingzhong saw that the following monks were a little interested in fighting with demon beasts, generally speaking, there are often advantages to take advantage of in this situation. He first looked at the three demon beasts carefully, and after looking at them for a while, he groaned slightly, and said with some hesitation: "That's ...... Luo Chong Beast? ”

Yan was shocked and said, "Yes, that's Luo Chong Beast, huh...... Luo Chong's horns are a good thing, they can be sold at a good price in the sect, Senior Brother Wang, there are six horns below! ”

Comprehending the meaning of Yan Jing's words, Wang Lingzhong smiled and was about to say something, when he heard a monk walking with him next to him suddenly say, "Strange, how is it a low-level monk?" ”

Hearing this, Wang Lingzhong and Yan Jing began to pay attention to the monks who were fighting below, and sure enough, the three Luo Chong beasts were actually five low-level qi refining monks, in their opinion, it was just the fourth level of qi refining, and they were now in a place where high-level monks did not want to come, and low-level monks did not dare to come, I didn't expect such a low-level cultivator to dare to come here and fight with this Luo Chong beast!

It seems that there are some opportunities, Wang Lingzhong said secretly.

One of them said with some disdain: "When is this also a place where low-level monks can come?" ”

The other person looked at the five people below, seemed to recognize someone, turned his head and said: "It's Qian Chao, no wonder, the disciples in the inner hall of the Chengqi Hall have some guts." ”

Hearing Qian Chao's name, others didn't react, Na Yan was stunned for a moment, and then turned his eyes to the five monks, he knew that Qian Chao was a man, so two of the five little girls were ignored by him, and among the other three young men, one of them was strong, five big and three thick like an iron tower, and fought with Na Luo Chong Beast with his bare hands, and a Luo Chong Beast almost rushed to his chest, seeing that the pair of sharp black horns were about to pierce two blood holes in his chest, and he didn't dodge, Actually shouted and stretched out his hands like lightning and held the two stabbing black horns tightly at once, the whole body did not move but was pushed back by the momentum of the Luo Chong beast rushing over, and then with a loud shout, he held the two black horns and pressed the head of the Luo Chong beast down, and forced the roar of the Luo Chong beast to the ground, causing a burst of earth and stone to fly.

This person can't be Qian Chao, I heard that Qian Chao is good at refining weapons, and when fighting, he must be fighting with his own refining spiritual weapons, looking at this person's means of dealing with Naluo Chong's beast, it seems to be an individual cultivation, well, it must be so, the body cultivation of the Houtu Temple is rare!

The other person is also long and strong, and his bearing is the most calm among the five, he has a cold and shining spirit sword in his hand, that sword looks like it is not ordinary, but the spirit sword never leaves his hand, and it is not an ordinary monk's method of hurting people with flying swords, and this person's body method is even Yan Jing was surprised when he saw it, if it was a low-level monk, where did he come from such a swift body method? Yan was shocked to follow the man, watching him fly up and come out with a sword, the sword light pointed to which eye in the middle of the forehead of a Luo Chong beast, it seemed that there was the key point of this Luo Chong beast, but this Luo Chong beast didn't seem to care about fighting with this person, and he still rushed straight at the same time, seeing that he was about to collide together, in desperation, in order to avoid the same death, the figure of the man suddenly rose up, and let the Luo Chong beast pass, but the Luo Chong beast that hit the air turned his head and opened his mouth to let out a roar at the person, Suddenly, a powerful flame slashed towards the Naluo Chong Beast, forcing the Na Luo Chong Beast to jump away in a hurry to dodge.

This firelight also made Yan Jing notice that the one of the two little girls wearing a red dress seemed to be a disciple of Qixia Mountain, and the fire just now seemed to be a spell that only Qixia Mountain had, and the name seemed to be called Fengling Fire Knife, and only they were able to study this fire technique.

This person relied on his own body to fight with the demon beast with the spirit sword in his hand, this kind of fighting style did not match the Qian Chao that Yan Jing heard, looking at the person's body shape and temperament like a sword cultivator, it shouldn't be Qian Chao, but ...... Sword Repair!

Unexpectedly, today I not only saw a physical cultivator, but also a sword cultivator, and it seems that the people around Qian Chao are also extraordinary!

Then the last young man remained, the young man was slightly thin, not tall, with empty hands, but from time to time he pinched out various tricks in his hands, and then Yan Jing noticed that a small knife with the same cold light was like a startling fish, swimming around him at a rapid pace, waiting for an opportunity to stab at the Naluo Chong Beast from time to time.

Yan was shocked to see a huge and strong Luo Chong beast rushing towards the thin young man like a gray shadow, but halfway through, there was a loud noise, and a big shield from nowhere blocked it, and the two black horns slammed into the big shield solidly, the shield was strong, and there was no damage, but the Luo Chong beast was blocked from rushing forward, so he was not convinced, and kept his head down and stubbornly pushed forward, pushing the big shield and slowly leaning towards the young man's body. Suddenly, there was a burst of water vapor on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, a layer of ice formed on the ground, and the extremely smooth ice could no longer let the Luo Chong beast borrow strength, and its four hooves were too violent, and after quickly kicking on the ice several times, it screamed in panic, and its four hooves hung in the air and fell on it at once.

Yan was shocked to look at the little girl in a lake blue dress next to the thin young man, and guessed that this girl should be a disciple of Bibotan in Shuiyun Valley, all they learned were the art of cold, looking at this little girl's method of casting spells, it was much stronger than ordinary low-level disciples, but she was also a dazzling figure.

He looked at the big shield again, this shield was very good, although Luo Chong Beast was not very powerful, but if he wanted to face such a collision, he also had to avoid it for the time being, but the big shield was safe and sound, it must be a carefully refined spiritual weapon for protection.

Well, looking at it this way, this young man should be Qian Chao undoubtedly, thinking of this, Yan Jing carefully looked at the young man's eyebrows and eyes, judging from this shield, it seems that Qian Chao's alchemy skills are really good, but that's it, he is still a low-level disciple with a shallow cultivation, I don't know what is so special about this Qian Chao, so that person values it so much, he wants to kill but doesn't want to do it himself, but he bothered to make a calculation to let others help him kill, and now this Qian Chao is still alive and well, Presumably, it was the previous calculation that failed to come true, and that person seemed to be a little anxious, so he let himself return to the sect to push this matter again.

This Yan Jing was the one who stabbed Dong Cheng to death with a sword in front of Han Ji in the underground cave that day, according to Wen Liang's words!
