It was nearly dusk and it was getting dark.

There were no crowds of people, and there were no walled houses, and the winds in the suburbs were much stronger.

The snow has not yet melted, and no one has come to clean it, and many places have been frozen and hardened, and if you are not careful, you will slip if you walk on it.

In the cold wind, a white robe fluttered around, and from time to time it lifted the transparent filaments infused with blood.

The crunching sound was continuous.

It was a group of people stomping on the snow at the same time, moving forward.

Their eyes were closed and they were smiling.

Unaware of the howling cold wind around him and the thick snow under his feet, it was like a sweet dream that he didn't want to wake up.

Swish!

From time to time, a human skin floats high.

Then it disappeared in the fluctuating transparent ripples, turning into flying debris in the sky, blending into the black soil and white snow.

There was a crunch click.

A dead branch hidden under the snow broke in two.

At this moment, the white-robed figure that was surrounded in the middle stopped.

She turned slowly and looked at the shadows in the distance against the snow.

It's like a giant beast that has fallen into a deep sleep, lying there quietly, letting the wind and snow blow, and not moving.

"It's almost time to arrive at Qizhou City."

After being silent for a long time, Luo Qingjun sighed lowly, his voice was flat and soft, but it was cold and cold before.

The next moment, a gentle man's voice quietly sounded, "This is the Acropolis north of Fucheng, and it is about less than a hundred miles away from Fucheng. ”

"Senior Gui has lived in Qizhou for several years, and now he is revisiting his hometown, do you have any special feelings?"

"Qizhou, it's a sad place for me."

Gui Shufang seemed to fall into memory, "I thought that this place was far away from the Great Zhou Jinggi, and there was a red lotus envoy from the Qinglian Sect to take care of it, so it should be safer anyway."

At the very least, it will allow me to calm down and take my research on the Mystery to the next level.

It's a pity that it didn't take too long for the imperial court and the sect to join forces to kill, and its reaction was so swift and powerful that it was completely beyond my imagination. ”

Speaking of this, Gui Shufang paused for a moment, and when he spoke again, he was still full of emotion.

"Tianji Mansion Donghe, Pilgrimage Si Qiongmang, Prison Martial Division, Xuanwu Dao Fengxun, these four people joined forces, plus Luo Daozi and Elder Lingmingshan, they really gave me Guishu a face.

Fortunately, Yuan Yi Ning Xuanzhen did not go down the mountain at that time, if he was added, I was afraid that I would be directly crushed and killed, and there would be no series of survival struggles behind. ”

Luo Qingjun smiled faintly, "We did send a message to Ning Dao Master, but he didn't respond.

Of course, for those who organized and planned this matter, Luoshui was close to Qinglin Mountain, and it was a little unreasonable not to tell them, but it was exactly what they wanted to tell Ning Xuanzhen not to come. ”

"It is understandable, the mysterious silk that can carry the mystical thoughts and entrust the true spirit, and naturally the fewer people who share this secret, the better."

Luo Qingjun suddenly changed his words, "Didn't Senior Gui think that the Red Lotus Envoy had not been exposed to the Imperial Court for so many years, and even achieved the position of the Qizhou Festival Envoy all the way.

It is considered the most successful high-level cultivator of the Demon Sect, but it turned out to be a failure and ended up in a miserable end? ”

"I thought about it, but I didn't think about it, it was nothing more than Qinglian's split infighting, plus someone wanted to target me.

After all, since things have happened, there is not much point in pursuing these things, people's energy in life is very limited, and even more so when they die, there is no need to put too much energy on this. ”

Luo Qingjun frowned slightly, "Senior Gui said that he died, I think you are alive and well."

Not only here for the younger generations, but there are also some other places, but all of them have your shadow. ”

"On the banks of the Luoshui River, Gui Shufang is dead, this is an indisputable fact.

The others, whether they are me or scattered around, are just a part of his true spirit.

can no longer go back to the beginning, and it can't be the real Uncle Wei. ”

Luo Qingjun said, "But the feeling that Senior Gui gave me is no different from before.

Even the success caused me a lot of pressure. ”

Gui Shufang sighed rarely, "The place of the dead is a good place, and the four lotus platforms of blue, red and purple are also good things, when you go there and see them, you will know that what I said is true." ”

"I also hope that day will come soon."

Luo Qingjun nodded, and an inexplicable smile appeared on the right half of his face, "Since discovering the existence of Senior Gui, it seems that this is the first time we have communicated calmly. ”

She sighed secretly, but the smile on her face became more and more intense, "Maybe it will be the last time, after all, the predecessors are about to disappear, and they will no longer be able to leave a trace in the world." ”

"I have worshiped Dingxuan Mountain since I was a child, and step by step from the outer disciple to the position of the master of the Dingxuan Sect, I have seen many amazing and brilliant characters over the years, but if you say which one has the highest spirit, it is none other than Gui's predecessors.

If you say that you want to become the king of the Northern Wilderness, maybe the younger generation will seriously think about what the Gui seniors should do in order to become the new king of the Golden Horde.

But what the seniors thought was completely beyond my expectations, and what they set their eyes on was actually the Great Brahma, which was really whimsical to the point of breathtaking. ”

"Tomorrow's reason, destroying people's desires, the lord of the Northern Wilderness, the virtuous live, the predecessors are indeed domineering, but unfortunately they can't recognize themselves clearly, and they treat themselves too much as a dish, but they don't know that they are just an ant."

"Master Luo, don't think too highly of the Northern Wilderness Brahma, and don't look down on the person who is the head of all spirits, especially our true spirit, it's not impossible to make a big thing that seems to be against the sky.

Taking a step back, whether I succeed or fail, it's something to look forward to for you, isn't it? ”

Luo Qingjun smiled, and his tone turned cold, "Heaven and earth are all working together, and it is not free to transport heroes, and the situation of Senior Gui at this moment is not the same as when he entered the land of death."

Knowing the heavens and the earth, knowing yourself and knowing the other, can last long, after the battle on the banks of the Luoshui River, you have already gone crazy, and now it is just the last madness before you perished. ”

The voice fell, and the threads surged.

In an instant, dozens of human skins flew up at the same time.

It was shattered by the rippling transparent ripples, and disappeared into the vast night.

Without the drag of the crowd and absorbing all the flesh and blood essence, Luo Qingjun got up and moved forward again.

The cold wind howled and blew in the face.

Although there was a scene of life cut off and a harsh winter everywhere, in Luo Qingjun's body, there was a Tao of vitality full of agility, which made her more and more erratic and lighter, and walked on the snow without a trace.

Like a ghost, looming in the depths of darkness.

Soon after, she stopped on the outskirts of the Acropolis and quietly watched the smoke of the cooking stove rising from time to time in the city, and a little nostalgia appeared on her face.

"Count the days, it's almost the New Year."

Gui Shufang's voice sounded slowly, "Seeing the fireworks in the small town, I can't help but recall that when I was a child, what I looked forward to the most was the New Year, where I would have meat to eat, new clothes to wear, and a few copper plates to spend the New Year's money, and go to the street to buy gadgets that I had long fancied." ”

"Don't you really regret it?" Luo Qingjun asked.

"Master Luo has always wanted to mess with my state of mind, but it doesn't make sense.

Because I've never regretted it, I still prefer this kind of game that overwhelms everything to the happiness of ignorance. ”

"I think you're crazy."

"If you don't go crazy, you won't survive." Gui Shufang sighed, "Master Luo doesn't need to talk about me, you are killing at this time, and I don't know how many living people will be left in this acropolis after tonight." ”

Luo Qingjun didn't speak again, but turned his head to look into the distance.

"I actually sensed that Ning Xuan really existed, and he was quickly approaching."

She was a little surprised, "And through Brahma's spiritual will, I inexplicably sensed his qi." ”

"What is Master Luo going to do, do you want to have a fight with Ning Dao Master?"

"I have only one purpose for going south this time, and that is to kill the people who are surrounded by Brahma's malice, and then retrieve the blood lotus from him.

Not to mention the confrontation with a Yang Great Grandmaster, fighting for that glimmer of life. ”

Luo Qingjun let out a low sigh, and his qi suddenly converged like wood and stone, completely cutting off the connection with Brahma's spiritual will.

The next moment, she took a step forward, and the whole person quietly disappeared.

When he reappeared, he had already come into the city, in the crowded streets, and even had a snotty child in his hand, no different from other housewives who had been burned by the smoke.

The sun sets soon and night falls quietly.

The Acropolis of Qizhou is brightly lit.

Most of them have just eaten dinner and are not yet in bed time, so they get together with their neighbors and friends to chat and kill the boring time of winter nights.

A crescent moon peeked out of the clouds, casting a veil of white over the earth.

At the top of the tower, fresh water mist surged, and even though the north wind was howling, it could not be disturbed and blown away.

In the mist, a withered figure loomed, silently staring at the city below, as if it merged with the stone wall and turned into a humanoid sculpture.

…………

………………

The moonlight is like water, and the night breeze is cold.

Li Kun quickly brought people over and took the bodies of the two Northern Wilderness warriors from the Green Bamboo Garden for disposal.

Immediately afterward, the entire Qingfeng Temple moved.

Everyone is on alert and ready for a possible resurgence of sneak attacks.

Wei Tao had already entered the practice room.

As he said, time is precious and cannot afford to be wasted.

The status bar quietly appears in front of you.

Wei Tao stared at the illusory interface in front of him, looking at the exercises one after another, and fell into silent thought.

Fifteen gold coins is a lot less, but it's not too much.

Therefore, it is necessary to plan and deduce well, how to use it, in order to maximize the strength.

"There is no room for improvement in the Imperial Law Seal."

"After breaking through the realm master with the Vajra secret method, there is no clue for the follow-up of the unity of yin and yang and chaos for the time being."

"The return of this gate...... Forget it, my fate with it has not yet arrived, and I can't force it. ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Wei Tao still set his eyes on the Xuanwu True Solution Seven Residences.

Name: Seven Nights.

Progress: One hundred and forty.

Status: Broken 4 stages.

Realm: Five Nights Combo.

Description: Mutual confirmation with other exercises, this exercise has changed and improved.

Silently, a gold coin disappeared.

The mystical aura begins to infuse into the body.

Little by little, time passed.

I don't know how long later, the tidal wave of mystery gradually stopped.

Drastic changes followed.

Wei Tao's face was expressionless, and he felt that a main aperture in his body exploded.

"I see, this trick corresponds to the camp in the Seven Nights."

"After reaching the level of breaking the limit of the fifth stage, the Seven Nights of the Chamber will then break through the barrier, and it can resonate with the other five Nights."

He slowly exhaled a scorching breath, his body rapidly expanded and expanded, and the black and red aura skyrocketed, covering the dark golden light inside.

Qi and blood surged, and the scarlet silk twisted and grew wildly.

Together with the complex blood web, it continues to shuttle and spread in the body.

Soon after, all the changes tended to stop.

Wei Tao rested for a while, and then started the second ascension again.

In an instant, an even more surging mysterious aura poured into the body, causing even more drastic changes than before.

Little by little, time passed.

Finally, everything settled down.

In the status bar, the description of the Seven Nights has also come to a climax.

Name: Seven Nights.

Progress: One hundred and sixty.

Status: Broken Final.

Realm: Seven Nights Combo.

Description: Mutual confirmation with other exercises, this exercise has changed and improved.

Wei Tao got up from a cross-legged sitting position, his hands were clenched, his five fingers were slightly open, and his palms were slightly raised. Pose the starting hand of the Yuan Fetal Fist Print.

Boom!

A soft sound like a heartbeat, mixed with rumbling thunder, quietly spread out in the dark and silent practice room.

He was in harmony with his mind, his body moved with his thoughts, and he slowly walked in a circle in the practice room.

The heartbeat of the pounding heart and the rumbling thunder merge into a single one, and finally blend into the humming rhythm of the morning bell of an ancient temple.

As the first arc is completed, Wei Tao lands his feet precisely at the starting point.

In an instant, the ink lotus quietly bloomed, and the image of a turtle and snake intersecting was born.

Immediately afterwards, an illusory figure with a black body appeared, stepping on the Xuan Turtle and cultivating snakes, located in the middle of the ink-colored lotus platform.

Wei Tao's spiritual will was raised to the pinnacle, and the scarlet silk gushed out of his body at this time.

The silk threads are woven into a net, and the artistic conception of red line fist and mountain leg piercing is faintly visible, slowly enveloping all the entire virtual image.

After a dozen breaths.

Suddenly, the silk was scattered, the artistic conception was gone, and the practice room returned to darkness and silence again.

"It's still a little bit closer, but it's not a big problem, a few more times will be able to successfully integrate these two methods into the Yuan Fetal Fist Seal.

After all, Red Line Boxing and Piercing Mountain Leg are my starting exercises, from the beginning of the practice to now I don't know how many times I have practiced, and after the experience of the Taixuan Abyss, the artistic conception has long been memorized, to the realm of handy. ”

"It's a pity that it doesn't make much sense to succeed, after so many attempts, it can already be foreseen that after the integration of the red line through the mountain, the improvement of the Yuanfetal fist mark cannot be said to be close to nothing, but it is also minimal.

Therefore, the idea of practicing hundreds and 80 kinds of outer Dao exercises and then integrating them all is not of much practical value. ”

Wei Tao slowly opened his eyes, recalling the practice just now over and over again in his mind, and sighed secretly after a moment.

Although he was a little disappointed with this situation, it was expected.

The upper limit of the Red Line Fist and the Piercing Leg is there, and it is not at the same level as the Xuanwu True Solution and the Vajra Secret Method, to be honest, it is already a good result to be able to improve a little, but it is not too extravagant.

Next, Wei Tao turned his attention to the status bar again.

There are thirteen gold coins left.

So how to use it later has become a difficult problem to judge and choose.

The Turtle and Snake Intersection that broke the limit of fifty stages, the Non Gui chapter that broke the limit of one stage, and the Ming Chapter, which had just reached thirty percent of the progress, thirteen gold coins were simply not enough to be allocated.

Wei Tao sat cross-legged and thought for a long time.

There are all kinds of deductions going on in my head.

Finally, he made up his mind.

The flow of qi and blood in the body is the foundation of strength, the foundation of strength, and it is also closely related to the Moon Washing Catalogue, so it is obvious how to choose.

A gold coin disappeared silently.

The status bar blurred, and the aura of mystery began to be infused.

Drastic changes followed.

Then the second, the third, the fourth......

Until the ninth gold coin is put in.

In the status bar, the Xuanwu True Turtle and Snake chapter has come to a new node.

Name: Turtle and snake crossing.

Progress: Six hundred and ninety.

Status: Fifty-nine paragraphs broken.

Description: Turtle and snake Jiaopan Yuanshou, Beigong Xuanwu Yisheng.

"Do you consume gold coins in the status column to improve the cultivation progress of the Xuanwu True Turtle and Snake Chapter?"

Looking at the line of handwriting in front of him again, and then perceiving the more complex and indescribable blood network in his body, Wei Tao couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and at the same time, a strong curiosity arose.

I want to know if there will be new changes after reaching the 60-stage limit.

And this time, the handwriting also does not indicate the consumption of one gold coin, so it means that if you want to upgrade to sixty ranks, at least the same as when you broke through the fifty ranks, at least two gold coins start, and maybe even more.

However, he still had four gold coins left, so he didn't need to worry about that.

Without much hesitation, he directly chose yes.

Swish!

The status bar suddenly blurred, accompanied by three soft beeps.

Gold coins are reduced by three in an instant.

The next moment, a mysterious aura descended.

Flooding into the body like a tidal wave.

"This feeling ......"

Wei Tao's eyes narrowed violently, and he almost exhaled in pain at this moment.

However, he couldn't scream after all.

Because just as the change began, an unprecedented mystical spiritual will descended at the same time, making him involuntarily immersed in it, and even forgot the unbearable pain of the qi and blood running veins.

In Wei Tao's perception, he seemed to be constantly rising, and he was about to touch the ceiling of the practice room soon.

But unexpectedly, the solid and heavy roof did not hinder him in any way.

He walked straight through it and continued to climb upwards.

Everything beneath him was blurry, and even the starry sky above him that was supposed to be there became hazy.

At this moment, Wei Tao saw a stone wall.

Without warning, it loomed eerily above its head.

Occupies almost all of his vision.

The surface of the black wall is also carved with complicated lines, giving people a sense of antiquity.

Looking closely, some of these lines even make Wei Tao feel inexplicably familiar.

On top of that, he faintly smelled the vague death breath that escaped from within the wall.

It was as if it were a corpse, floating in the dark depths, slowly decomposing and deteriorating.

"This stripe seems to be somewhat similar to the blood web in my body."

Wei Tao's heart moved slightly, and suddenly there was a flower in front of him.

His vision expanded rapidly, and he didn't know if the black stone wall that shrank above his head was getting smaller and smaller, or if his body was growing endlessly.

Finally, he saw it in its entirety, and his mind was suddenly shaken.

It's like a spark falling into a pot of oil, causing a fire that can ignite all spiritual consciousness in an instant.

Rumble!

In just a moment, everything dissipated invisibly.

Wei Tao opened his eyes at this time and found that he was still sitting cross-legged in the practice room, with a roof above his head that had not changed at all, and he had not moved a single inch at all.

It seems that the encounter that has just come without warning and gone quietly is just a dream.

Now that I woke up, everything was back to square one.

All that was left was a splitting headache, as if the skull had been split open, and something had penetrated into it and stirred it up.

There is also an inexplicable depression floating in Wei Tao's heart.

He couldn't help but open his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, and his expression looked a little confused and dazed.

"The wall that obscured the perception just now turned out to be an inky turtle shell."

"And the last thing I saw in a flash, if I wasn't dazzled, it should be the Xuan Turtle Snake Cultivator, and it is also a turtle and snake exchange that exudes a strong dead aura."

Wei Tao slowly adjusted his breathing, and at the same time calmed his somewhat chaotic thoughts.

In the status bar, there is only one gold coin left.

And about the interface of the turtle and snake chapter, there have also been new changes.

Name: Turtle and snake crossing.

Progress: 700 percent.

Status: Sixty paragraphs broken.

Description: Turtle and snake Jiaopan Yuanshou, Beigong Xuanwu Yisheng.

Wei Tao stared at the description of the last line with some distraction, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly sighed, "According to the scene I saw, the corpses of the Xuangui Snake Cultivator are all stinking, where did Yuan Shouzhi come from?" ”

He slowly got up and once again made the Yuan Fetal Fist Seal Gesture.

The spiritual will was condensed in one place, the true strength and blood operated spontaneously, and a virtual image gradually appeared behind him.

But in the next moment, the virtual image that had not yet fully manifested disappeared.

Wei Tao stood there motionless, his eyes half-open and half-closed, his brows furrowed slightly, as if there was something unsolved lingering in his heart.

After a few breaths, he lit the lights embedded in the four walls of the practice room, took out the crystal clear hairpin, and made a hard cut on his arm.

The skin automatically appears a dark golden hue, blocking the sharp tip of the hairpin.

He had to deliberately rein in his qi and relax his body before he broke a thin wound on his forearm, watching a wisp of blood ooze out of it and drip down his fingertips.

Under the bright light, the blood beads condensed on the floor of the practice room, and a faint trace of dark golden light appeared inside.

Wei Tao picked up a bead of blood and put it in front of his eyes to observe it carefully.

You can even feel a sense of oppression in it.

"This strange feeling has never been felt before, could it be a new change brought about after breaking through the turtle and snake intersection to sixty stages?"

"I have also cultivated to the stage of breaking the limit in the Non Gui Chapter and the Seven Houses Chapter, and the Seven Houses Chapter has even reached the final stage, but it is far less strong than the changes brought about by the Turtle and Snake Chapter when the limit is broken.

As for the Ming Qi Chapter, it has not been further cultivated and improved, and it is not known what its effect will be for the time being, but according to the commentary of the Xuanwu Dao Master, it seems that it cannot reach the height of the turtle and snake intersection. ”

"Therefore, in the whole Xuanwu True Solution, the most basic, even the tortoise and snake intersection of the rotten street, may be the most important one for me.

As the saying goes, if the foundation is not strong, the earth shakes the mountains; The foundation is not good, and the wind blows down the high-rise building, but now I am digging the foundation a little too deep, and I am afraid that I will fall to death if I step on it. ”

Wei Tao collected his thoughts, and his expression was calm and peaceful.

He cleaned up the ground and slowly pushed open the heavy iron door of the practice room.

At this time, it was dawn, and the eastern sky lit up with a fish's belly white, and a faint gold, eager to break through the clouds.

Wei Tao took a deep breath of cold and fresh air, and was just about to walk out of the courtyard, when he suddenly remembered that there was still a gold coin lying in the status bar, so he immediately returned to the practice room and slammed the door shut.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the status bar was consumed again.

After raising the Xuanwu True Interpretation Chapter to one hundred and twenty progress, breaking the level of the second stage, he stepped out of the Green Bamboo Garden, which had been in a state of stay all night, and slowly walked outside.

"I saw shemales, and shemales saw me."

"That person came from north to south, and the next stop should be Qizhou City."

Wei Tao climbed the stone slope outside the Qingfeng Temple and looked north.

Li Kun came closer, "Breakfast is ready, if Daozi wants to enjoy the scenery, I will ask them to bring the food." ”

Wei Tao was just about to speak, and his eyebrows jumped suddenly.

He turned slowly, heading south.

At this time, a great sun rises and shines on the earth.

The surface of the Luoshui River is sparkling, looking like a narrow mirror from a distance, perfectly embedded in the middle of the black soil and white snow.

In Wei Tao's eyes, I don't know how many times I saw the scene, but at this moment, it seems to have changed, turning into a fresh and pleasant beautiful picture.

The morning sun is rising, and the water is rippling.

Among them, there are green lotus flowers blooming, and a flat boat goes upstream.

Wei Tao exhaled lightly a breath of turbidity, and looked at the boat walking in the Luoshui River with some distraction, as well as the illusory Qinglian that quietly appeared on the surface of the water and disappeared silently, and inexplicably felt a sense of time and space disorder.

It seems that this is not the bitter cold northern Qizhou, but the southern water town with mild climate and beautiful scenery.

Even the morning breeze blowing above the stone hill seemed to turn into a vibrant, smoky spring breeze.

And all this comes from the people on the ship.

A man in a green shirt stood quietly on the bow of the boat, crossing without oars, with a relaxed posture and an indifferent expression.

He also slowly turned his head at this time, his gaze penetrated the void, and landed on the stone slope outside the Qingfeng Gate.

The two looked at each other head-on, and immediately intertwined, almost indistinguishable from each other.

"Michiko?" Li Kun instinctively felt the solemnity of the atmosphere, but he didn't find out where the source came from.

Wei Tao lowered his eyes and showed an inexplicable strange expression on his face, "I haven't figured out how to find that shemale yet, but it turned out that I met a demon." ”

(End of chapter)
