The Journey of Immortals Section 766
These Heavenly Demons were impressed by the manic power and resentment of Shangqing Heaven itself, three or two times stronger than ordinary Heavenly Demons, and it seemed to be endless, even if Zhao Ning Qing eliminated those Heavenly Demons, Zhao Ning still felt that there were more Heavenly Demons around him peeping.
Zhao Ning closed his eyes, just because of the power of thunder just now, these heavenly demons did not dare to harass Zhao Ning for the time being.
She gathered all the mana and divine light that was left, and made herself completely mortal, hiding everywhere there was demonic energy.
At this moment, Zhao Ning suddenly understood why the people of Shangqing Heaven wanted to go to the Nine Heavens, this was not a place for living beings to seek the Tao.
However, just like that, Zhao Ning clearly knew that at least before the Shangqing Heavenly Dao Species invaded the Nine Heavens, Shangqing Heaven was not such a chaotic place, at least there were no Heavenly Demons, and I was afraid that the erosors would be eroded.
Zhao Ning lay on the ground for a long time, until the light of the sky faded, and the entire Shangqing sky fell into thick darkness, there was no moonlight, no starlight, it was completely dark, there were not even fireflies flying in the mountains and forests, and occasionally a few insect chirps could be heard, but they would also stop abruptly, as if they were swallowed by something.
Zhao Ning didn't move, she looked inside her body, slowly recovering from her injuries and mana.
But in the darkness there seemed to be strange creatures, following the flow of darkness and approaching Zhaoning.
Under the extreme night, it approached silently, until it was about to touch Zhao Ning, Zhao Ning suddenly opened his eyes, the golden light in his eyes swept by, raised his hand and clasped it, the golden light was wrapped, there was a sound in the dark, and then dragged, the strange thing in the darkness was forcibly pulled out, thrown away, dissipated, it was a shadow, no form, no realm, only the dark shadow of pure destructive power.
Extremely weird, and after condensing destroyed one of them, the strange creatures in the darkness did not disperse, they had no consciousness at all, they only wanted to eat away at the living beings.
A little golden light shrouded Zhao Ning's body, and the next strange creature that was touched dissipated even if it didn't make a move.
Zhao Ning sensed the collapse of the creature's last breath before it dispersed, and suddenly realized that this creature might be the embodiment of those demonic qi, resentment, murderous qi, evil qi, and other negative forces.
For a long time, Zhao Ning was overwhelmed by such an attack, sat up with his body propped up, pressed his palm on the ground, and with this as the center, a circle of golden light spread out like a wave, and in an instant, the darkness receded.
Zhao Ning stood up, the dark night couldn't sense what time Zhao Ning was at this moment, but she didn't want to be entangled with these strange shadows anymore.
The night was incomparably long, Zhao Ning walked down the mountain on foot, at least seven or eight hours later, the sky was still as dark as ink, and the naked eye saw no more than three feet.
So is this why the heavens need light?
Zhao Ning walked to the foot of the mountain, and sensed a faint fluctuation in her consciousness, which should be a place where the human race gathered, and she followed the direction.
There was still a hundred zhang away from the place, and Zhao Ning sensed a terrible scream in the darkness not far away, it was a wild cat entangled in the shadow of darkness.
The wildcat struggled hard, but the dark shadows, when entangled, sucked away its life.
At this moment, a thin figure rushed out and smashed it with a fire fold, "Let go of Xiao Huang!" ”
The immature little girl's voice carried the fearlessness of this age.
Touching the fire, the dark shadow shrank, the wild cat twisted dexterously, and fell directly to the ground, maybe the cat has nine lives, and the cat that was restrained like this could still move quickly, and climbed onto the little girl's body in an instant.
The fire fold smashed out did not support the light of the three breaths, and the little girl knew that the light was going to be extinguished, so she ran forward quickly.
However, no matter how fast the little girl ran, the little short legs couldn't go far, and the time of a breath was caught up by the dark shadow, which hooked the little girl's ankle and threw herself on the ground, and the cat also smashed on the ground, and the little girl struggled with her feet in horror, and the cat bent her back and blew her hair.
Zhao Ning paused, his consciousness moved, and those dark shadows froze in place.
But the little girl didn't know, and in the midst of the exclamation, she took out a talisman from her arms, folded it into a triangle, and held it in front of her, "Don't come here!" ”
Zhao Ning's brows moved slightly, and she vaguely sensed the power of ice in the triangular talisman, her eyes drooped slightly, this Shangqing Heaven with only the Innate Destruction Dao should not exist in the Ice Cold Dao, unless......
With a slight movement of thoughts, Zhao Ning walked towards the little girl.
The little girl didn't know what was happening dozens of feet away for the time being, she saw that under the icy blue light of the triangular talisman, the thick darkness didn't seem to be approaching, she was bold, "Go, Xiao Huang, go away, go home." ”
He took a few steps back, then ran back in spite of it.
Zhao Ning didn't stop the little girl, and even helped the little girl disperse the dark shadow behind her, and ten zhang behind the little girl was the village.
The village was encased in a glimmer barrier, barely shielded from the erosion of darkness.
However, the little girl was still three or four feet away from the entrance of the village, and several old people rushed out of the village, all holding torches, and their faces were full of fear, maybe the fear of the dark, or the fear of the little girl disappearing.
The little girl shouted in surprise, "Grandpa!" ”
But the old men didn't even have time to show their joy, so they hurriedly waved their torches and grabbed the little girl and went to the village.
In fact, waving a torch does not eliminate the approach of dark shadows, these dark shadows just don't like light, they will extinguish the light as soon as possible, so for people, torches can stop the darkness for a while.
Zhao Ning was already standing at the entrance of the village, but she did not walk into the light curtain, her figure was still hidden in the dark, those dark shadows wanted to get close but did not dare to approach, she looked at the stone tablet outside the village entrance, the stone tablet was engraved with the name of the village, the name was Qianshan Village, the surface of the stone tablet was depicted with mysterious ancient lines, and the streamer traveled on the lines, which was the core of the light curtain of the entire village, which should be used for the town and village.
The old men who entered the village threw torches in a fit of rage, and one of the old men took one of the little girl's arms and beat her severely, apparently in great anger.
"How many times have I told you not to go outside the village when darkness falls. It's going to die! ”
"If you don't go far this time, you'll die!"
"Haven't I died!" The little girl retorted, "And I also brought Huang back, so the darkness is not so terrible!" ”
The little girl's words made the old man almost angry, and he walked a few steps in place, and then turned to catch the cat, "I have to kill the wild cat today, and you will sneak out next time." ”
"Don't!" The little girl screamed, and at the moment before the cat was caught by the old man, she protected the cat in her arms, and she whimpered, "You can't kill Xiao Huang, Xiao Huang is my only friend, and Ah Ji can't live without friends." ”
The old man was stunned by the little girl's words, and the old man next to him was helpless, so he said, "Forget it, there is nothing to do this time, and I won't take it as an example." Aji is the only child in our village, and we can't let her stay with us old fellows, so don't let the children be depressed. ”
"Hey!" The little girl's grandfather was angry and helpless, and tilted his head not to see the whimpering child.
The comforting old man also went to tell the little girl, "Aji, good boy, there are very terrible things in the darkness, which will devour life, and you can't go into the darkness anymore." At night, you must stay at home and don't even go out of the door. ”
The little girl sobbed and looked at the old people around her, she had heard these words many times since she was born, and heard that her parents were far away because of it.
However, the little girl still didn't understand, she unfolded the triangular talisman in her palm, "Where is there something terrible in the dark, even if there is, this talisman can protect me!" ”
The old men took one look at it, and when they saw it, they all sighed as if they thought of the children they had taken away.
The little girl's grandfather scolded her, "Hurry up and put it away!" This is what your father bought with his life, and he can only save you once! If you use it casually, I'll break your legs, old man! Put it away! ”
Seeing his grandfather scolding him like this, Ah Ji pursed his mouth, and finally couldn't help but bury himself in the little yellow back hair and cry.
Zhao Ning stared at this scene, this is an ordinary mortal village, those old people have not cultivated, and there are no young people in the village, whether male or female, only a naughty little girl Ah Ji, listening to the meaning of their words, I am afraid that the young people have been arrested.
Zhao Ning lowered his eyes, his gaze fell on the stone stele, and looked at the writhing lines on the surface of the stele, this Shangqing Heaven seemed to be more cruel than Kyushu.
Her fingertips moved slightly, and the golden light mimicked the lines on the stele, forming a magic seal, which was re-superimposed on the stele, and in an instant, the light curtain brightened a little.
Several old people were startled and looked up at the same time, but at this moment, the darkness in the sky was lifted, the darkness outside the village faded like flowing water, and the sky was bright again, but this time in the east.
"It's dawn." Someone shouted.
At the same time, another old man noticed the condensation at the entrance of the village, and asked in amazement, "Who are you?" ”
And the little girl's grandfather hugged Ah Ji tightly.
Zhao Ning raised his eyes and bowed slightly, "Cultivators, passing by here, I don't know if I can rest for a day or two." ”
Seeing Zhao Ning's kind attitude, the old people breathed a sigh of relief, and they all saluted nondescriptly.
"Immortal Chief, you can do as you like. It's just that there are really no young people in our Qianshan Village. The old man hurriedly made up for it, "Ah Ji, she was born without a dantian, so she can't cultivate." ”
Chapter 432
Zhao Ning was welcomed into Qianshan Village, and temporarily brought into Xiao Ji's house, several old people were still vigilant and cautious, following in small steps, several people pushed each other, as if they had something to ask but didn't dare to ask.
Until sitting at Xiao Ji's house, several old people pulled Xiao Ji's grandfather outside and said a few words, and then pushed Xiao Ji's grandfather in.
Grandpa Xiao Ji hesitated, and after a while, he brought tea.
"Immortal Master, you drink tea, the mountain village, the tea is old, don't mind."
Zhao Ning only said, "It's okay", and sipped the tea, which was more coarse than the ordinary tea in Kyushu, probably because the camellia was affected by the aura of heaven and earth during the growth process.
Xiao Ji hugged the cat, looked at her cautiously, and if she couldn't see enough, she simply stared at her with her eyes half-covered.
Zhao Ning didn't care, but Xiao Ji's grandfather slapped Xiao Ji, which made Xiao Ji almost cry again.
Zhao Ning raised his eyes to look at it, Xiao Ji's grandfather stopped his hand, but Xiao Ji was bold, his tears were immediately suppressed, his round eyes stared, and said, "Sister Fairy, you are so beautiful." ”
Zhao Ning put down the teacup and replied with a smile, "Xiao Ji is also cute", but Xiao Ji insisted, "Sister Fairy, it is whiter than the immortal masters that Xiao Ji has seen, and it must be clean, those immortal masters have a lot of marks, so ugly, so ugly!" ”
Zhao Ning paused slightly, remembering that the imprints on the bodies of those primitive cultivators in the outer heavens were full of demonic energy, and it was easy to confuse them with half-demons, but in fact, they were human cultivators, but they believed in demon gods and gained power from demon gods, so they showed imprints on their bodies, and now, the demonic qi in this heaven and earth was raging, even if they were not demonized, I am afraid that they would be affected to some extent, forming demon spots and the like.
"This is caused by the aura of heaven and earth." Zhao Ning explained gently.
Xiao Ji's eyes widened, she didn't understand very well, so she blinked and raised the triangular talisman again, "Is it the same as the aura cultivated by this fairy sister?" Is it the unique power of the whole Fengming? ”
"Xiao Ji!" Speaking of which, Grandpa Xiao Ji interrupted Xiao Ji's words, he was very nervous, "Hugh is going to talk nonsense, the power of the immortal master, you even have a closed dantian acupoint, how can you understand, go out quickly, go play with Xiao Huang." ”
Xiao Ji refused, but he had already been picked up by his grandfather, and he couldn't twist it, and he was sent out of the door after a while.
Zhao Ning watched, although he was a little interested in the power of the triangular talisman, but he didn't stop it, just took another sip of tea.
Sure enough, Grandpa Xiao Ji nervously came back alone, standing at the door, not daring to go deeper, as if this was not his house, he was the trespasser.
Zhao Ning asked in a faint voice, "Does the old man have something to say?" ”
Grandpa Xiao Ji hesitated for a moment, "Immortal Master, did you come down from Shiyue Mountain?" ”
Zhao Ning shook his head, "Not really." ”
Grandpa Xiao Ji was a little disappointed, but he finally met the immortal master again, and he asked again, "Then do you know when the young people and children who were brought to Shiyue Mountain will come back?" ”
Zhao Ning looked at him, but in fact, under his gaze, every thing in the house was rising with invisible qi, and these qi were implicated with each other to show the past that only Zhao Ning could see.
It was about five or six years ago, some Qi refining disciples dressed in the service of the sect forcibly broke into Qianshan Village, and heard the old people in Qianshan Village call them "Qiyi Sect Immortal Master", but these Qi refining disciples directly ignored them, and instead saw the young man and the child and took one away with one in his hand.
The old man in the village chased after him in horror and asked, "They didn't fall into the devil, why did they take them away, please let the immortal master let them go?" ”
The Qi refining disciples just shook their bodies, shook off the old men, and said condescendingly and coldly, "Look at what time it is, the entire Fengming is demonic qi, even if you are mortals and go to the battlefield, you have to slay demons, don't want to hide in the wilderness to escape the world, get out of here." ”
At that time, even Xiao Ji's two or three-year-old children were arrested.
But it was still Xiao Ji's grandfather and her father and mother, who kept talking, Xiao Ji's natural dantian was blocked, and he was probed by the qi refining disciple, and he was thrown back with a frown.
The rest has no intention of turning back.
Zhao Ning's gaze retracted, the light and shadow dissipated, and she said lightly, "If it is for the purpose of slaying demons, then, as long as this day is dark and darkness is still threatening, I am afraid they will not come back." ”
Grandpa Xiao Ji snorted, closed his eyes tightly, and slid down the door frame to sit on the ground, in fact, they all knew it in their hearts, but what about the clarity, how could this darkness all over the entire Fengming Continent, this ubiquitous demonic qi, be completely cleared.
He buried his head and couldn't help but cry in a suppressed voice.
Zhao Ning avoided his gaze, maybe it was like this before the Kyushu Purge.
There were still a few old people waiting anxiously outside the hospital, and it didn't take long for Grandpa Xiao Ji to wipe his cloudy eyes indiscriminately, lowered his head and said, "Immortal Master, you rest first", and then went out.
Zhao Ning's gaze swept over the house, looking at the inner room, where the curtain was obscuring, and the invisible qi spread out from the curtain, and a new light and shadow appeared.
Before Shi Yueshan recruited young people, this mortal residence was happy, the young woman walked out with the child in her arms, the considerate husband hurriedly lifted the curtain in a few steps, the woman coaxed the child in the swaddling clothes, and the husband was also teasing beside her.
"Xiao Ji is so cute." The man said, and then took out the treasured triangular talisman from his arms, the talisman was wrapped around the red rope, hooked the red rope and hung down, and dangled it in front of the swaddling baby, "Xiao Ji, Xiao Ji, this is a life-saving baby, Dad will hand it over to you now, you have to take care of it." ”
