The gray fog full of death quietly cleared. The moor regained the silence of the night. It seems that the whirlpool that has just appeared, and the demons that emerge from it, are just conjectures in a trance.

The man in black stared blankly at the figure in front of him, and his brain instantly went blank. He tried to flee as hard as he could, but he couldn't even take a step.

Under the pressure of substance, his body trembled uncontrollably, and he couldn't breathe.

Cluck...... He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't even utter a complete word.

It can only make meaningless noises, like a breath stuck in the throat, and you can't spit it out no matter what.

The other man looked ordinary, no different from other young people, as if he could crush him to death with just one finger if he wanted to.

However, his always keen sixth sense kept reminding him that this quiet and silent fellow was dangerous, unusually dangerous.

Although he didn't see clearly how this person appeared, he just subconsciously believed that the other party was the terrifying demon king who had just crawled out of the gray mist whirlpool.

Under a human skin, I don't know what kind of terrifying real body is wrapped.

"The wind is a little warm, not as cold as before." Wei Tao retracted his gaze and looked up at the moonlit and starry sky.

"The dark clouds dissipated, the wind and snow did not exist, and it was the first time I had seen such a pure night sky by the Xuanbing Sea." He pressed and kneaded his eyebrows, and sighed secretly,

"So, when the hell is it?" Swish...... Without warning, the oppressive momentum disappeared completely.

Caught off guard, the man in black stumbled and almost fell directly to the ground. Hardly any hesitation or hesitation, he knelt down.

With both hands on his forehead, he touched the ground with his head, and his posture was extremely respectful.

"The villain, I have inadvertently offended the adult, and I ask the adult for forgiveness." Wei Tao slowly approached, his gaze deep and distant, staring at the hideous face that was scarred and distorted by fear.

"I ask you, what time is it?" The man in black was stunned for a moment, and his face was full of puzzled expressions.

Now, what time? He took a deep breath and said cautiously,

"If you go back to your lordship, it's about midnight."

"What I want to know is that it is now the year of the Great Zhou Qianfu, or the Brahma calendar of the Golden Horde of the Northern Wilderness." Hearing this, the man in black was stunned again.

There was a long silence. It's not that he doesn't want to answer, and he really wants to give a precise answer in exchange for the other party's kindness.

But desperately, he didn't know the answer to this question. I hadn't even heard of the Great Zhou Qianfu and what was going on with Brahma at all.

"Don't know or don't want to answer?" Wei Tao's brows furrowed, and he continued in a calm tone,

"So, let me ask you one more question."

"Have you seen an old man with a missing left arm in your neighborhood, or a few other young men and women?" The man in black's lips twitched, and he subconsciously shook his head.

"Thank you for your cooperation." Wei Tao nodded slightly, and pointed out without warning. Swish! Barely a sound, a scorching breeze approached the man in black.

He was devastated, and suddenly felt that extreme danger was coming. Under the oppression of the great terror between life and death, a strong desire to survive erupted, allowing him to break the huge pressure that enveloped his body and mind, and at this time he regained the ability to act independently.

"Flesh and blood are sacrifices, and divine power is possessed!"

"Sacrifice the light, pray for God's coming!" The man in black raised his arms reluctantly, stabbed his left hand into his chest, and gouged out his eyes with his right hand.

Katsa! Sudden splashes of viscous liquid. Originally, it was the location of the eyes, and only two blood-drenched black hollows remained.

Rumble! With the position of its standing as the center, the ground of more than ten zhang square is sinking downward. His body swelled and grew in size, causing a furious stream of air to spin and scream.

Swish...... That's when the scorching breeze arrived. It submerged into the violent air flow that exploded in an instant, and merged with it, as if they were inseparable from each other.

The man in black gritted his teeth and grinned with blood on his face.

"I have divine power, you ......" He didn't finish his words, and suddenly fell silent. An ordinary-looking palm fell gently as if it had no strength, breaking through the barrier of the furious aura and lightly imprinting it in the middle of his forehead.

Katsa! Half of the man in black disappeared directly. There was only one mouth left still muttering, and I didn't know what it was saying.

"Possessed by divine powers?"

"Now in this world, no matter what it is, dare to call itself a god."

"Therefore, it is still necessary to kill these ghosts and ghosts, and return all things in heaven and earth to peace and clarity." Wei Tao shook off the little blood stain on his fingertips, and slowly turned to leave south.

After a few steps, he suddenly stopped again. He glanced back and looked back. Even after a few breaths, the man in black stood still, his mouth still chanting, not like a corpse that had been blown off most of his head.

"In this case, it hasn't even lost its vitality?" Wei Tao's brows furrowed, and between his thoughts and thoughts, he suddenly caused a more intense headache.

He wanted to study the reason carefully, but in this case, he suddenly lost any interest, and only the irrepressible irritability spread rapidly.

Rumble! A sudden punch was struck, and a rain of scarlet blood exploded. The man in black flew all over the sky, not even a single intact bone was left.

After doing all this, Wei Tao still stood still. It's as if something is quietly waiting. Little by little, time passed.

Suddenly, an ethereal voice sounded, blending into the night wind, which was no longer icy and cold.

"You're good, I've remembered you." Wei Tao took a deep breath and exhaled slowly,

"It's meaningless if you remember me, if you have the ability, come to me now, if you don't have the ability, don't force me to talk in front of me."

"I might come looking for you, but not now." After a pause, the voice continued,

"And when I say you're good, I'm really complimenting you, not being hostile to you."

"And then I was listening." Wei Tao calmed down, looking for the source of this voice.

"Although these containers are all dead, I will not hesitate to spend a lot of money to keep in touch with you, in fact, I want to make a mutually beneficial deal with you." The stalks of the grass that have just sprouted move with the wind, making a small crumbling sound.

The illusory voice came again at this moment,

"After seeing your abilities, I suddenly realized that you should be a good helper." Wei Tao searched around and found nothing.

He didn't ask for any deals, just sighed and said,

"If you found out that I was weak, wouldn't I have the conversation now?"

"You're right, only if you have enough strength can you have the opportunity to trade with me on an equal footing. After all, the weak are in front of the strong, and there is only one choice to obey unconditionally, and if you don't obey, it will be a dead end. The voice spoke slowly, giving the impression that it should be so, that it should be taken for granted.

"What deal?" Wei Tao sat down on a square stone at random,

"What do you want and what are you prepared to give?"

"What I want is all kinds of spiritual consciousness born in this heaven and earth."

"As for what I can give, it depends on what you need most." The voice was silent for a moment,

"For example, the secret method of cultivation on improving the true spirit and strengthening the divine soul may be what you need the most at this stage." Wei Tao laughed and shook his head nonchalantly,

"It's just a cultivation method, and you want me to help you fight life and death, to be honest, I don't see your sincerity."

"Practicing Qi and Transforming Spirits and Returning Spirits to Void is just a cultivation method in your eyes?" When the voice sounded again, there was a hint of inexplicable surprise.

"Don't you know how precious and rare the secret magic scroll that points directly to the true spirit is?"

"The immortality of the primordial spirit and the eternal existence of the true spirit are the most important foundation for longevity and detachment. Otherwise, even if you cultivate a strong body that is unique in your life, it will only be earned for a while, and when the time comes, you will eventually return to dust and earth, and you will not be able to enjoy eternal life. What's more, for cultivators, the inner saint and the outer king are the right path, and if they don't cultivate their gods and only cultivate their bodies, it is impossible to push their physical bodies to such a high level. For example, at this moment, although your strength level is already quite good, the true spirit and soul are about to reach the point of being overwhelmed. If we continue like this, it may not take long before we fall into the abyss of chaos and madness. Wei Tao fell into thought, and a gentle smile appeared after a moment.

"Many friends have many paths, many enemies have many walls, not to mention that I have always been kind to others, I don't like to fight and kill, I prefer to be mutually beneficial, and everyone takes what they need. Therefore, what Your Excellency said has won my heart, and you and I are both adventers who came here from outside the territory, and when facing these natives, we should have joined forces to deal with them, so as to ensure that nothing goes wrong. The voice sighed faintly,

"So, you're agreeing to a deal with me?" Wei Tao nodded,

"Agreeing is naturally agreeing, but some of the details still need to be discussed."

"For example, do you want to pay me a small deposit so that I can really feel at ease when I do things?"

"You mean, let me first teach you a part of the cultivation method of refining qi and transforming gods, and practicing gods to return to emptiness?"

"It seems that your problem is indeed very serious, and you have pressed your eyebrows nineteen times in a short period of time, and you are on the verge of madness. Then, in order for the cooperative transaction to go smoothly, I can teach you the basic part of this God Refining Method, even if it is the deposit you just mentioned. At that moment, out of the complacent flesh and bones flew a black mosquito, even smaller than a sesame seed, barely visible in the night.

Wei Taotong's hole shrunk, and it wasn't until this mosquito was visible that he really discovered its existence, and no matter how much he explored and sensed before, he didn't find any traces.

"In its body, there is a little bit of my essence and blood."

"If you integrate it into yourself, you will be able to obtain the spiritual inheritance of the method of refining the gods."

"I will send someone to contact you again in the future, I hope we have a happy cooperation." The voice fell silent until it finally disappeared.

Black mosquitoes loom in the background. The last moment was still hovering on the messy ground. The next moment, he came to Wei Tao's side like a ghost.

It gathered its almost transparent wings and landed silently on the surface of his skin. But it is firmly glued to the cobwebs that cover the surface of the body.

Wei Tao concentrated on observing, his eyes condensed on the almost invisible mouthparts of the black mosquito, and all kinds of thoughts couldn't help but flash in his heart.

Immediately after, a mysterious silk thinner than a human hair poked out from his fingertips and pierced into the belly of the black vein.

From beginning to end, he did not have any physical contact with the black mosquitoes, and he did his best to protect himself.

Little by little, time passed. A gentle night breeze blows. Wei Tao seemed to have turned into a humanoid statue, silent and motionless.

Until the night passes, and the day comes. He blinked slowly, and burned the black mosquito with the Great Sun Divine Palm.

"There is no problem with the cultivation method called refining gods, which is studied and deduced." Wei Tao sighed, and finally decided to put it aside and not practice for the time being.

If you can't see the problem with the exercises, it may be that he is short-sighted and doesn't have a vision, rather than that there is really no problem.

What's more, he thought there seemed to be something wrong with the black mosquito. If it weren't for the silk power of the happy mother, it was very likely that he would be bitten by it.

What kind of situation will happen at that time, even he can't tell, and he can't see clearly. As for the ethereal and mysterious voice, he rarely had a strange feeling that he couldn't do it, and he couldn't use it.

You must know that even in the face of the high-flying autopsy immortal, he can't beat it, but he can also face it head-on and have a confrontation, instead of just hearing his voice and not seeing his person, like last night, and there is not even the slightest clue left.

……………………………… Walk through the Northland Heath. Wei Tao stopped in a densely growing forest.

The light rain is like silk, lingering, connecting the whole world into one. Passing through the woods, a dense cluster of buildings looms ahead.

It looks hazy under the rain curtain. Wei Tao looked at the market town in the distance, and some long-term memories quietly surfaced in his mind.

It was in Beixu Town, on the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Wilderness, that he met the master of Esoteric Horizontal Training for the first time, and deeply understood the martial arts artistic conception of the secret method of Vajra, which laid a solid foundation for his future practice.

There was another Northern Wilderness Grandmaster named Mr. Him, who also left a deep impression on him.

It can be said that it was precisely because of the fight with Mr. He that he had the first perception of not seeing or hearing, so when he faced Xuanwu Sun Daozi later, he had a certain degree of experience in dealing with it, so that he would not be too dazed and flustered.

Wei Tao thought a little distractedly, and soon came to the front of Beixu Town. He stood under the stone gate archway at the entrance of the town, his gaze gradually extending into the distance.

As we got closer, we saw a clearer picture. Reality and memory coincide little by little, but there is always an inexplicable strange feeling haunting my heart.

After a moment, Wei Tao took a deep breath of cool air and exhaled slowly. He finally found what felt discordant.

Beixu Town looks clean and tidy in the rain. Even the air seems to be fresher than in the forest, and the breath and breath can't help but make people feel refreshed, and even the lingering headaches are reduced a little.

But herein lies the problem. The town is so clean. Not to mention the littering of all kinds of goods and garbage, there is not a single fallen leaf or a single weed in sight, as if someone has spent a lot of effort to clean it up.

Even the pedestrians who came and went behaved politely, and there was not the slightest quarrel and noise.

As a place of business through the north and south, chaos should be its original appearance. It's like the last time he came over, all kinds of garbage were everywhere, and there were random piles of things everywhere.

There are also gangs that kill people and throw corpses on snowy nights, and the surrounding residents are also accustomed to it, and they don't make any eyes at all.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if the situation in Beixu Town runs out because of the tense situation between the Great Zhou and the Northern Wilderness, it should still present a scene of decay and desolation, not as clean and clear as it is now.

Wei Tao gathered his thoughts and slowly stepped into the long street. Soon after, he showed up at the restaurant he had been to the last time he had been.

At this time, it was evening, and the restaurant was full of guests, and the atmosphere inside was warm and lively, but it recreated the lively scene of the late winter night that year.

There was a soft squeak. Wei Tao pushed the door and entered. After looking around, I went straight to the table in the corner. He ordered sixteen kinds of dishes with eight cold, eight hot and one breath, and asked for a full five jars of soju, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the wine shop.

A young man in a long robe got up from his seat and walked over with a flask.

"Meeting is fate, sitting." Wei Tao glanced up and pointed to the empty seat opposite. The young man did not refuse, sat down and poured the two of them a full drink, and then took a drink from it.

"Childe looks like it's the first time you're here?" He asked, as if unintentionally, as if he had not yet put his cup down.

"The second time, the last time I came was winter." Wei Tao smiled and watched the shopkeeper arrange the dishes one by one.

And then he continued,

"At that time, Beixu Town could be called a model of dirty mess, not as clean and refreshing as it is now, as if it had been licked by a dog." The young man took the wine glass in his hand and put it in his mouth as if nothing had happened,

"Dirty and messy is not a good phenomenon after all, if you can take care of it, it is naturally better to take care of it." A flash of light flashed in Wei Tao's eyes, and then he nodded with a smile,

"Brother Tai is right, let's have another drink." The table was sumptuous and the drinks were delicious. The two sat and chatted with each other, and the atmosphere in the banquet became much more relaxed.

Young people seem to be in a high position here. Since he sat down, Xiao Er brought the dishes like a stream, completely ignoring the other tables, and even the new guests did not come forward to greet them.

All the diners did not complain about this, as if the young people were far above them and deserved to be treated differently.

As time went on, the more the two talked, the more speculative they became. The young man who was dressed in ordinary clothes was a little shabby, but when he chatted, he gave Wei Tao a refreshing feeling.

It is simply that he knows astronomy and geography, 5,000 years before and after, 30,000 miles longitudinally, as if there is no problem that can stump him.

Even the shopkeeper who helped pour wine and cloth dishes on the side was full of wealth and export when he answered, not like a miscellaneous subordinate at all, but more like a child of a family who read poetry and books.

Interesting. It's really interesting. Wei Tao finished drinking the wine in the cup, and a smile overflowed on the corner of his lips.

After a moment of feasting, Wei Tao got up from behind the table, took out the scattered gold and silver taken from the Northern Wilderness to pay the bill, and then declined the warm invitation of the young man to stay, and left the restaurant to continue to the south.

It's not a normal town. The people inside looked even more abnormal. However, he didn't want to look for why.

It's not because you can't get started. Nor is it for fear of retaliation. The main thing is that I am afraid of trouble, and I can also say that I am lazy.

Too lazy to think, and even more lazy to toss. What's more, he was in a hurry to go home and take a look. Determine the safety of parents, family members, and senior sisters.

As for these strange people and things, as long as they don't block his way home, then they can turn a blind eye and ignore them.

Wei Tao quickly walked through the long street and came to the southern end of Beixu Town. He glanced back, and the town was brightly lit, illuminating the darkness of the rainy night.

There seemed to be a faint chanting sound, mixed with the wind. Wei Tao withdrew his gaze and was about to enter the dirt road outside the town.

Syllable! He stepped out, making a splash, but stopped at that moment. The rain seems to have gotten heavier.

And the night wind, which has always been mild, also became howling and hideous at this time. There was a muffled thud, and it seemed to be the sound of a metal door being blown and hitting the door frame hard.

And in the rain curtain ahead, a black shadow loomed. Wei Tao's face was expressionless, staring at the figure in front of him in a simple robe, and a little bit of a smile was not much.

The young man who didn't know when he came here to wait bowed slightly, and said in a gentle tone,

"The spirit god is very interested in Childe, and he respects the oracle below, and he has come to invite Childe to join the sect, hoping that Childe can go back with me to listen to the teachings, and don't make it difficult to do it." Wei Tao nodded, a low sigh.

"I was leaving."

"I've already reached the intersection."

"It's hard to do, so don't do it." The gray-robed young man narrowed his eyes. The expression in his eyes instantly became surprised and solemn.

Rumble! In an instant, the wind howled, and the white light shone. Blazing flames burned. Reflect everything around you and bake it.

The rain curtain turned into steam and rose, forming a clearly visible cavity in the void. A muffled sound of winter.

The ground trembled slightly, like a heartbeat. Wei Tao slowly straightened up at this time, looked down at the dust scattered in the wind at his feet, raised his hand and pressed and kneaded his eyebrows.

He turned around a little and looked at the brightly lit town of Beixu again.
