"Girl, what do you think of Chen Dao's friend next door?"

In the dim light, Brother Joe asked tentatively, his daughter had returned with the team to collect medicine a few days ago.

"Dad, why did you say this all of a sudden?"

The girl understood her father's words, and her face was flushed.

"Why can't Dad say this? Your father and mother are getting older, and sooner or later you have to go first. I think that Chen Daoyou is calm, not impatient or impatient, and he is a person worthy of trust. Brother Joe checked his daughter's micro-expression.

"Dad, my daughter and Chen Daoyou haven't said more than three sentences." The girl muttered.

"What's that? Your father and your mother never even met before they got married. Haven't you been doing well all these years? Brother Joe didn't care.

After a pause, he moved forward slightly, he didn't know whether his daughter was shy or unhappy, and said cautiously:

"Dad asks you, if you entrust you to Chen Daoyou, do you like it?"

Brother Joe actually has a drumming heart.

On the one hand, I don't know my daughter's mind.

On the other hand, Chen Ping once politely rejected him, although he thought that his daughter was outstanding and worthy of Chen Ping, but the emotion was really not a question of worthiness.

"Dad, my daughter doesn't want to." The girl bowed her head.

The face is burning hot.

There was one sentence she didn't express, she had been very close to Miss Xia from the City Lord's Mansion over the years, and she had seen the excitement outside, and her vision was no longer limited to the small Vast City.

In her opinion, Chen Ping's cultivation of the ninth layer of Qi cultivation was barely passable.

Everything else is unremarkable.

But she herself was already at the seventh level of Qi cultivation at a young age, and she was not too far from the ninth layer of Qi training.

"You don't like Chen Daoyou?" Brother Joe carefully verified.

"My daughter doesn't want to." The girl bowed her head and whispered.

Brother Joe sighed lightly.

At this time, Brother Qiao's Taoist priest walked in with a medicinal soup:

"If you don't want to, forget it. Then Chen Daoyou doesn't necessarily have thoughts about our daughter, he has been here for so long, except for treating you, he has never taken the initiative to come and sit, if he is really thoughtful, I am afraid that he will find a reason to come over every day. But Chen Daoyou has a great kindness to us, and he went back to send some valuable treasures to thank others. ”

“.…..”

Separated by a wall, Chen Ping naturally didn't know the discussion next door.

He picked out the oil lamp, took out a book of "Ghost Cultivation Detailed Explanation 123" bought from the shops in the vast city, and flipped through it.

Across the sea from the vast city is Senluo Prefecture, which is the place where he wants to learn about ghost cultivation.

The so-called Senluo, that is, all-encompassing.

All-encompassing, i.e., mixed.

Senluo Prefecture is the only place on the Ethereal Continent where you can find a ghost cultivator.

As a city of cultivating immortals built on the coastline, Vast City will often be a transit point and stopover point for caravans traveling between the two sides of the strait.

Therefore, this Immortal Cultivation City also has a certain amount of information reserves for Senluo Prefecture.

The so-called ghost cultivation pays attention to absorbing the energy of the yin spirit and strengthening oneself.

The promotion system of ghost cultivation is very different from that of immortal cultivation, it is not divided according to qi training, foundation building, golden pill, etc., but has its own system: Yin Harvesting Realm, Soul Gathering Realm, Condensation Realm, Swallowing Yuan Realm...

In terms of strength, it is slightly stronger than the corresponding realm of immortal cultivation, and the main advantage is the unpredictability and unpredictability of its means.

Generally speaking, there are two modes of self-cultivation in ghost cultivation:

The first is to absorb the yin spirit evil qi in the right way, just like the immortal cultivator absorbs the spiritual energy, constantly cultivating and becoming stronger.

The second is to pay attention to devouring others, sucking essence and blood, and refining the remnants of the soul.

Because the first path is slow, the vast majority of ghost cultivators will take the second path into account.

Even the second extreme road is dominant.

It is precisely because of this that even in a continent like Senluo Continent, which is more inclusive, ghost cultivation is still feared by the public and is not tolerated by the world. It can only be hidden among the general public in the form of casual cultivation and secretly cultivated.

Even if there are some non-extreme ghost cultivation sects or families, most of them are in a state of seclusion.

After reading the introduction of the ghost cultivator, Chen Ping opened the map of Senluo Continent that he bought again.

Judging from the map, the hermit family recommended by Xiyue is located in the east of Senluo Prefecture.

It's still a long way off.

He repeatedly flipped through the materials and maps, and finally planned a relatively safe road, carefully marked it on the map, and marked the spheres of influence and various risk areas along the way.

For Chen Ping, now he only hopes that the hidden family recommended by Xiyue will not have relocated.

Otherwise, you have to find another ghost to cultivate.

That's a big problem.

He pondered in his heart at the same time, after entering Senluozhou, he slowly observed, if Senluozhou was too dangerous and beyond the risk, then he would give up decisively and go home.

Close the book and map and continue drawing.

And so the days passed.

The time to draw talismans always passed quickly, and another two months passed, Chen Ping had been in this vast city for nearly 7 months, and he cleaned up the talismans in his hands.

Coupled with the intermittent drawing of talismans in previous years, there are already a lot of talismans in my hand.

There are already 2,611 white shield talismans, and there are more than 1,000 other talismans such as Wanli talisman and Soul Melting Talisman.

These talismans can be exchanged for thousands of high-grade spirit stones, and the harvest is not bad.

Maybe you can leave after a little longer.

this day.

Chen Ping was drawing talismans when he suddenly heard a noise outside.

and the sound of the bell coming from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

After coming to the Vast City for so long, this is the first time I have heard a bell.

When he walked out of the house, he saw some of the monks outside running in a panic, and some of the other neighbors standing in the courtyard looking up.

Chen Ping took advantage of the situation to look up, only to find that the entire Vast City's protective array had been activated.

On an upside-down bowl, the silk pattern shines, and the rhyme is pervasive.

In the courtyard of Brother Qiao next door, there were two female cultivators, one was Brother Qiao's daughter, and the other was Chen Ping, who also recognized Xia Xiaoxun from the City Lord's Mansion.

"Dare to ask Xia Xiaodaoyou, why did you activate the city protection array?" Chen Ping asked.

Chen Ping didn't ask Brother Qiao's daughter, but felt that the little girl blushed a little every time she saw him during this time, and deliberately avoided contact with him, without the feeling of honesty and honesty before, Chen Ping guessed that she probably learned about her father's promise to a Taoist couple from Brother Qiao.

In order to avoid embarrassment between each other, Chen Ping did not ask her.

On the contrary, it is this Xia Xiaoxun, who has greatly increased the frequency of appearing next door in the past two months.

Every time she saw Chen Ping, she would greet her generously.

Kind of a person who is a good communicator.

"That's the bell that rings when my Xia family encounters the most serious situation, I have to go." Xia Xiaoxun's expression was solemn.

hurriedly said goodbye to Chen Ping and Qiao's daughter.

Chen Ping glanced at the chaotic street and calmly returned to the house.

Then quickly unleash the Divine Sense.

The result was a shock. In the sea area only more than 30 miles away from the Vast City, a row of spirit ships armed to the teeth were rapidly sailing towards the Vast City, menacing.

Obviously not good stubble.

The flag on the spirit ship reads 'Seagull City'.

Chen Ping had heard of these immortal cultivation cities, which were more than a thousand miles away from the vast city, and it was also a small immortal cultivation city built on the coastline.

It's even smaller than the Vast City.

There is only one monk who builds the foundation.

I heard that Seagull City and Vast City are not friendly with each other because of their similar functions.

Something is wrong.

What's going on in this vast city?

Obviously, the two cities don't deal with each other, why are they not prepared at all? Let the other party touch the door of the house before ringing the bell?

Chen Ping once again focused on 'checking' the spirit ships.

It was found that there were a total of three foundation building monks on the deck of the spirit ship, and there was no breath of Jindan.

This made Chen Ping breathe a sigh of relief.

These people were no threat to him.

However, it is clear that this vast city is no longer suitable for staying.

Chen Ping began to clean up.

I was not prepared to participate in such a turf struggle between Xiuxian City and Xiuxian City.

There is no right or wrong in such a big battle between Xiuxian City, there is only benefit, just like the food chain between animals on the grassland, the weak eat the strong.

Poor antelope will only starve wolves.

He had no intention of interfering with such a conflict.

At the end of the day, he's just a passerby, and he doesn't have anything to do with anyone here.

This kind of battle doesn't even have much to do with Sanxiu, it's a big deal to change the city lord.

It's more related to the City Lord's Mansion.

Chen Ping quickly cleaned up the fineness, withdrew all the formations, erased the traces of himself in the house, and then went out.

Now that the city protection array has been activated, and the entrances and exits have been closed, he has no way to leave the city normally.

He thought about it, he was not in any danger, and there was no need to destroy other people's protective arrays.

As long as the big war starts, at the crossing of the battle, the big array of the city will first tear a gap, and then leave from there.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Seagull City is suddenly attacking, you are ready for battle, mortals and early stage Qi cultivation cultivators can not go out."

"Daoists in the late stage of qi refining, please go to the ferry to fight, we will share the glory and disgrace, and all those who participate in the battle will be thanked by the city lord's mansion afterwards."

"Ladies and gentlemen."

There were city guards who ran along the streets and shouted.

The narrow streets were full of monks hurrying along.

Chen Ping walked out of the courtyard and prepared to follow the flow of people in the direction of the ferry. But at this moment, he suddenly felt a very cold aura hit his body.

Not a spell attack.

It's a breath of air.

Yin Spirit?

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, since he raised the evil spirit, he had a keener perception of things like evil and filthy qi.

This breath is related to evil spirits.

But the aura doesn't seem to be very strong, and he himself is successful in refining his body, and he naturally rejects this kind of filthy thing.

Chen Ping quietly dispelled the aura that carried the evil aura of the Yin Spirit, and at the same time walked forward with the flow of people casually, pretending not to be aware.

The Divine Sense scanned the crowd around him earnestly.

Soon, a monk in the crowd caught Chen Ping's attention.

I couldn't help but be stunned again.

It's good at camouflage.

It's not bad, if it weren't for the fact that my realm was too high for him, I might not be able to spy on it. This person seems to be a late-stage Qi cultivator, but he is actually a ninth-level foundation cultivator.

Chen Ping didn't stay long after seeing this high-level monk infuse him with breath, he squeezed to the other side again, and secretly came to another late-stage Qi cultivation monk.

Then there was the third late-stage Qi cultivator.

Boy.

Pick out the monks in the late stage of Qi training.

This time, Seagull City has made a big deal in order to capture the vast city.

There are three foundations on board, and there is one here.

And it is a nine-story foundation.

This high-level monk was able to attack the late stage of Qi cultivation here, and Chen Ping could only think that this person was a fine work of Seagull City.

I didn't expect to meet my peers here.

He is also a person who understands the evil law.

Chen Ping was interested, but after this little episode, he became vigilant and used his divine sense to constantly check the true cultivation of the surrounding monks.

The entire vast city is not big, and there are more than 2,000 monks in total, which is very easy to investigate.

After the investigation, it was found that there were many people who collected breath, but only this person was from the foundation building to the Qi refining period.

After checking the repair situation, it was almost before the ferry.

In front of the ferry, there was a large group of monks standing in the black pressure, and the Xia City Lord was making an impassioned speech, and in stark contrast, in the sea area behind the Xia City Lord, a row of black pressure spirit ships was already visible to the naked eye.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come to test our combat strength, and the Seagull City is also worthy of coming to attack our Vast City? Rest assured, there is a big battle to protect the city, and if they dare to come today, we will dare to let him come and not return. Xia City Lord's voice was loud.

There was silence for the convoy below.

These are the loyal forces of the Vast City.

Behind them, countless cultivators stood on top of the rocks of the cliffs, some staring at the rows of spirit boats with determined eyes, some whispering to each other, and some silently retreating.

But none of this has anything to do with Chen Ping.

He blended in with the crowd, and the moment the corner of the city protection array was opened, it was the time for him to leave.

Of course, he had always left a sense of consciousness to observe the monk with high scabs, and he didn't mind sending him away when the time came.

Seagull City's spirit ship quickly sailed outside the ferry.

On the largest spirit boat, a middle-aged monk stood on the bow of the boat, and the strong wind blew his robes backwards, looking extremely high-spirited:

"Xia Wujian, the old man has found out that you colluded with the demon cultivator in an attempt to subvert our righteous path immortal cultivators. Today, the old man is here to do the right thing for heaven, why don't you hurry up and catch him? ”

The Summer City Lord stood at the front of the line:

"Huh? Munda, what? If you want to annex the Vast City, you need to find such an excuse? It's no wonder that the nearby city lords of Xiuxian City look down on you. ”

Munda was unmoved:

"Xia Wujian, it is a fact that you are serving the Demon Cultivator. The old man's evidence is conclusive, do you still want to quibble? ”

As he spoke, he held up a transparent bottle in one hand.

"Evidence?" Xia Wujian sneered.

Before Xia Wujian finished speaking, Meng Da's hand shook, and the transparent box flew into the air, appearing in front of everyone in an instant.

It was a transparent bottle with the word 'Xia' engraved on it, and it contained half a bottle of white powder.

Soon, Munda's hand shook again, and the bottle returned to his hand, and he snorted coldly:

"This is the evidence, this jade bottle is your Xia family's unique jade bottle, right? This is a poison of mass destruction that the Demon Cultivators have specially used to deal with us and other righteous monks. The old man has sent a number of fine works over the years, and they have been searched in your house, Xia Wujian, do you still have something to say? ”

As soon as this thing came out, the loyal monks of the City Lord's Mansion on this side of the Vast City were still silent and unmoved.

But Sanxiu didn't know who took the lead, and there was a whispered discussion.

Chen Ping grinned.

I always feel that I have heard this routine somewhere before.

“.”

The conversation is ongoing.

Chen Ping didn't pay attention to their nonsense, but secretly released his divine sense and began to scan the spirit ships on the opposite side.

As a result, what his divine sense saw couldn't help but make him slightly startled again.

In the cabin of the main ship, he actually 'saw' a familiar face.

The face I saw in Falling Moon City.

- A demon cultivator.

Chen Ping quickly verified his memory:

Back then, in Falling Moon City, when he and Yun Haitang and Baili Ye entered the cave to destroy the eye of the mist array, there was a female demon cultivator who had built a ninth layer of the foundation and entered the cave to try to destroy the plan.

That's right, this is the man. ’

I didn't expect to be here. ’

Is it a coincidence?

Or has this Seagull City taken refuge in Demon Cultivation?

He carefully scanned all the spirit ships again, because there was a certain distance, he couldn't sense the demonic energy, and he couldn't know if there were other demonic cultivators present?

But the strength of the monk can be tested clearly.

There are a total of three foundations on the deck of the spirit ship, two in the middle stage of foundation building, and one in the early stage of foundation building, and these three people have no astringent breath, and their cultivation is outward.

Chen Ping had already seen these three people.

In fact, everyone saw it.

But there were still two people in the cabin who restrained their breath.

One of them built the foundation on the first floor and converged to the sixth layer of qi training.

Stay by the side of the female demon cultivator.

The other person was the female demon cultivator, who had converged to the cultivation of the seventh level of Qi cultivation.

As for the real cultivation

It is still nine floors of foundation.

I haven't grown in so many years.

Chen Ping doubted that he would perceive the problem, so he carefully sensed it again, and this time he could even sense the faint fluctuations in spiritual power caused by the female demon cultivator's unstable breathing technique.

That's right, it's nine layers of foundation.

If you can't practice the breathing technique to the point of being shocked, it will be useless in the case of being crushed by the great realm.

If it is true that this demon cultivator and the monk who has been lurking in the vast city are indeed Munda people.

That.

Munda is probably more than just a vast city.

There are only two mid-stage foundation building on this side of Vast City, and one of them has not fully recovered after being poisoned. And Seagull City actually dispatched six foundations, two of which were nine floors.

Does it take such a big deal to win a single Vast City?

Chen Ping didn't know the reason, but judging from the current situation, Chen Ping was more inclined to the fact that the female demon cultivator appeared here not by coincidence, but by a plan.

A Monda in the middle of foundation building may not be able to make the nine cities of foundation building obey his orders.

In this way, Meng Da is probably controlled by the Demon Cultivator?.Thinking of this, Chen Ping slid through his body.

There's no going to be another Misty Array, is it?

But then he rejected this idea, if he really wanted to use the mist war to control the entire domain, it was far from enough to build a foundation nine-layer demon cultivator.

Just when Chen Ping was puzzled, he heard a voice beside him:

"Does Chen Daoyou think I have a chance of winning in the Vast City?"

I don't know when, Brother Qiao's family squeezed to Chen Ping's side.

Before Chen Ping could answer, another person took over the topic:

"What's the odds of that? The three foundation-building monks on the opposite side, the only foundation builder on the side of the vast city who can really participate in the battle with all their strength is the Xia City Lord, and it is only a matter of time before the great siege array is broken. ”

"Hey, I don't know if when the city is broken, will we be implicated in the casual cultivation?"

Chen Ping smiled:

"Don't worry, the city lord of Nameng is a good person at a glance, even if he annexes our vast city, he will never embarrass us and other scattered cultivators."

As soon as these words came out, several monks around him showed bitterness, and the monk in the distance couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly.

Chen Ping 'looked' in his eyes.

Sure enough, it was someone from Munda's side.

"What kind of good man could Munda be? Hey, Chen Daoyou doesn't know, hey, this person is very lustful, a beautiful female cultivator can't escape his clutches, his family is established in this way, and this person will be repaid, I'm afraid I'm going to be unlucky this time. ”

Brother Qiao beside him had an unusually ugly face.

The girl beside him was tugging at the corner of the robe tightly, and her face was pale.

"Chen Daoyou, do you want to?" Brother Jo glanced at his daughter.

Chen Ping was speechless.

When has this been?

Still thinking about this:

"Don't think about it, it'll be fine."

“.”

The tugging ahead is still going on.

Chen Ping was actually very curious, such a must-win game, as long as he pushed it flat, but why did Namunda keep talking, as if he had to occupy a great moral high ground before stopping.

"Fellow Daoists, Xia Wujian colluded with the demon cultivator, the crime deserves death, but this has nothing to do with you, as long as you oppose Xia Wujian and help me kill him, not only will you not suffer any joint sin afterwards, but you will also get a rich reward from my Seagull City." Munda yelled.

"Hmph, you said that collusion with demon cultivation is collusion?" Xia Wuji's face was dark.

As soon as the words fell, a huge skull phantom suddenly floated above the heads of the seven or eight late-stage Qi cultivation cultivators on the side of Seagull City.

The phantom roared in terror.

These seven or eight monks were casual cultivators, and there were also monks from the city lord's mansion.

All of them are high-end combat power.

For a while, there was chaos on the side of the Vast City, and the monks quickly retreated and flew sideways, distancing themselves from the seven or eight monks who had appeared skeleton phantoms.

All of them were full of vigilance.

Before the war began, the Vast City side was already in chaos.

"Xia Wujian, you still say that you are not a demon cultivator?" Munda asked loudly.

"Fellow Daoists of the Vast City, kill those demon cultivators and eliminate harm for us and all others."

"All the Taoist friends of Seagull City, follow the old man to attack the city. Kill all those who resist. ”

"Break!"

Munda roared.

With this roar, the original wrinkled and brilliant protective array flickered a few times, and the formation patterns quickly dimmed.

Xia Wujian was startled, and suddenly looked in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

His face turned pale.

This protective formation was his only reliance.

Now it's suddenly gone.

All the monks of the Vast City were terrified, including those who were loyal to the City Lord's Mansion, and they were in chaos without a fight.

"Someone has ruined the formation." A disciple of the Xia family was the first to react and galloped towards the City Lord's Mansion.

"Hahaha, it's late. Kill~"

Munda laughed wildly.

But as soon as he shouted the word 'kill' halfway through, he suddenly stopped and suddenly turned his head to look at the cabin.

The other monks, who had just been preparing to attack, also paused and turned their heads to look at the cabin.

There was an irresistible sense of coercion.

Let them want to kneel down the majesty of the feeling.

Immediately after, a female cultivator with a cold face walked out of the cabin with a burning gaze.

Meng Da was stunned for a while, this demon cultivator who came to help said that he would only make a move in extreme circumstances, why did she actually come out of such a tailwind situation now?

But he immediately sensed that something was wrong.

He noticed that the female demon's gaze was fixed on a person on the other side of the Vast City.

Not just Munda, almost everyone found out about it.

On the deck of the spirit ship, all the people silently dispersed, making way for the female demon.

And on the side of the Vast City, the scattered cultivation around Chen Ping also showed that something was wrong, and it also spread quickly.

highlighted Chen Ping all of a sudden.
