Chapter 321: The Shadow Appears

The sea of clouds in Lushan gradually returned to the previous situation, calm with hustle and bustle.

Although there are many casualties, this is the so-called calamity in the world of monks, and since you have entered the door of cultivation, you have to face and bear the fate and calamity, joy and anger, happiness and sorrow on the path of cultivation. This truth was already understood by the monks as early as the moment they entered the sect in the human world. When we look at the biographies and miscellaneous accounts of our predecessors, novels and arguments, saying that so-and-so has practiced for hundreds of years, was robbed once, and died, the words and tone are extremely plain, or a little ruthless, which is also the truth. This is like, as the saying on the rivers and lakes goes, people are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be stabbed, and sooner or later they will have to pay it back. In other words, that's all.

Of course, it is not that there is no monk grief, but it is just a spill of a glass of spiritual wine and a few incense candles. The dead are long gone, the living can't be relatives, and the rest of their lives after the catastrophe still have to practice Xuangong, accept aura, and break the realm, although they can't live forever, but they have one or two magical powers, and they will go further on the road of cultivation, right?

The reason why it is said that the sea of clouds in Lushan is calm with hustle and bustle, which is the case. The Lushan Lotus Law Peak was completely or truly opened this time, and the monks in the sea of clouds had a sense of urgency invisibly. The six peaks of Lushan Mountain, the Lotus Law Peak has undergone great changes, and then the other five peaks are also about to happen? If each peak is really opened, there is such a battle, then how to deal with the next five peaks and five tribulations, how to deal with the calamity?

At this moment, the Lotus Law Peak, naturally in the west, stands outstanding, hazy, and sometimes sees the golden light shining, and the other five peaks also seem to have changed, and the breath flows, and there are frequent out-of-phase appearances. However, after the lotus law peak was really opened, the six peaks were even more extraordinary, the prohibitions were surging, the patrols were strict, and it was even more difficult to get close.

In the sea of clouds, this is the situation. Above the six peaks, it is a different situation.

Lotus Law Peak, Sanskrit sound wooden fish out of trouble, this is a great joy. But on the day that the Sanskrit sound wooden fish was born, it was gone. Although the entire Lotus Law Peak, therefore, can almost be said to be earth-shaking changes, the aura is more intense, many Buddhist instruments, as well as classic exercises, and then born, for a true spiritual monk like the **** Eni Dalama, it is even more felt that in the underworld, the induction with the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas is easier and stronger, but the Sanskrit sound wooden fish is hidden. To break through the barrier to the upper realm, you must have a magic weapon like Sanskrit Muyu to form a great array of six desolate gods and demons. Therefore, the Lotus Law Peak is a true spiritual monk, with Shi Hai, and is in a hurry to search for its traces. It is almost a state of closed mountain gates.

Qingjing Peak, Haoran Peak and other peaks, because of the real opening of the Lotus Law Peak, and the secret induction, are all concentrating on breaking the new prohibition and refining the magic weapons that fly out inexplicably, so as to welcome the day when this peak really opens. In a word, the heat is in full swing, and the economic situation is very good.

The sea of clouds, the six peaks, the entire Lu Mountain, are busy scenes, everyone has exercises, there are treasures everywhere, this is very peaceful. But there was a horrific tragedy.

This matter has to start with the world, Chang'an Ziyun Temple. The king of the Tang Dynasty, with the surname Li, respected the ancestor of Laozi Li Er, according to legend, Ziyunguan was a secret place of cultivation outside the palace of the Tang Dynasty king. In the Tang and Song dynasties, and then in the Yuan Dynasty, Ziyunguan has long been dilapidated. One viewer, two children, and three people can be said to depend on each other, all relying on the sale of ghost talismans in the bazaar, barely making a living. But I didn't want to, one day, the master of the view, the eldest son of the Tao, inadvertently, raised an antique incense burner in the cellar of the temple. This eldest son, there is no Taoism, there is still a vision, and he secretly recognizes some friends of the three religions and nine streams, so he brags everywhere, from Tang Xing to Song, from Song to Yuan, from Lao Tzu riding a green ox out of Guguan, to all Buddhist and Taoist debates, and wraps the incense burner in layers of historical veils. Thanks to his old scheming, conspired with several people, and tried his best to package and hype, the incense burner was actually sold for a large price.

Originally, this story ended in an old-fashioned way. But people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and they want to compare themselves with the heavens. The eldest son, watching the black incense burner, was suddenly bought by a stranger for a large price, three thousand gold, after several hypes by his own brothers. The eldest son suddenly became suspicious, instructed people, and sneaked sniping, but was beaten to the ground, and then a few days later, someone actually took advantage of the night to kill the purple cloud temple. The eldest son, seeing that the situation was not good, rushed around, and when he arrived at the realm of Yingtianfu, he was already desperate, and suddenly remembered that he had a relationship with his own side of the Quanzhen Sect Xuanhuazi Zhenren, so he came to find Xuanhuazi and told him about it.

Xuanhuazi didn't care at first, and only then did he become cautious when he asked in detail about the shape and style of the incense burner. With this caution, Xuanhuazi first sent people around to investigate, and then galloped thousands of miles overnight to seize the incense burner. After some inspection, this incense burner seemed to be a bit like the legendary Zijin gossip incense burner, and he was immediately ecstatic, and immediately sent a message to the master in the Qingjing Peak of Lushan Mountain.

On Qingjing Peak, the Quanzhen Sect who received the news, after secret discussion, signaled Xuanhuazi to come to Lushan immediately and strictly keep the secret. Xuanhuazi, Huiyi, beheaded the Ziyunguan Immortal Son, alone, and quietly flew up to Lushan.

Unfortunately, Xuanhuazi, as soon as he went to Lushan, was killed. Together, there is also a real monk who came down from Qingjing Peak and secretly responded to Xuanhuazi, and three mortal ninth-layer monks. There were five people in all, and all of them were killed. Not only that, but the robes of these five people hung empty in the nearby woods where they were killed, and they let out a strange cry in the wind.

The voice was very miserable, obviously a desperate cry before death. Moreover, listening to these screams, the blurry picture will constantly change in front of your eyes. A dark black background, with a pale red circle in the center, surrounded by five tiny figures. As the center of the circle continued to squirm, these figures made all kinds of strange gestures, revealing a deep pain and strong resentment.

I didn't think that the murderer was very cruel and perverted, and after abusing and killing these five Quanzhen Taoist priests, he also made an image of the scene of these five people before they died with evil magic and secret methods, which was not so much a provocation as if the murderer was not enough to vent completely.

Who has such a high level of cultivation and is so cruel? He actually dared to torture and kill two real monks of the Qingjing Peak Dao Sect and three disciples of the ninth layer of mortal dust on Lu Mountain in one go?

Qing Jingfeng, whether it is the Quanzhen Sect or the Zhengyi Sect, has all dispatched their subordinates to join forces to track down the murderer. Because of this incident, it was discovered after a day. The traces of the scene, or the breath, have all been altered or dissipated. Even true spiritual cultivators can't tell from it what sect the murderer is, and what kind of exercises he practices. After all, after going to Lushan, there are too many channels and opportunities to access the exercises of the evil demon outer path, and according to some people's speculation, many righteous path monks in the original human world, not to mention cultivation, have at least referred to these evil demon outer path exercises.

But from the perspective of cultivation and motivation, it is not clueless. That day, the head of the machine first mentioned Xuanjizi. He was thrown by the Daomen and thrown into the Prison Demon Peak, he has always had a grudge, and he is familiar with the Quanzhen Daomen exercises, and he knows Xuanhuazi and Xuanyuzi well. Yes, the head of the Quanzhen Sect personally led his subordinates to the Prison Demon Peak and asked Xuanjizi to come out for questioning.

Xuan Jizi, hidden in the boundless demonic qi of the Prison Demon Peak, confronted each other with words and swords. The Quanzhen Sect over there couldn't come up with evidence, and he was afraid that there were True Spirit Cultivators in the Prison Demon Peak in the Great Freedom Palace, so he had to leave in a huff.

Qing Jingfeng also suggested that if it was about cultivation, it would be impossible for Xuan Jizi alone to intercept and kill so many masters of the Dao Sect alone, and he couldn't even send out an emergency message at that time. And as we all know, Xuan Jizi, in the Prison Demon Peak, although he has been recognized by the Great Freedom Palace, but he has never officially entered the Great Freedom Palace, and has always been alone. Therefore, it is not necessarily the work of Xuanjizi. On the contrary, those East China Sea ghost dragons of Rakshasa Peak are ruthless, and there are many of them, even true spirit cultivators, and there are as many as five or six. And the incense burner was finally in the Wuchang Mansion in the human world, and the Wuchang Mansion was secretly controlled by the ghost monks according to intelligence. If the incense burner is really the legendary Zijin gossip furnace, those ghost dragons get the news, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not make a brazen move, although the six peaks of Lushan have an agreement not to kill the real monks above the level of each peak.

Soon, another piece of information was sent, and the ghost dragon family of the East China Sea had secretly established the Xuanying Gate in the human world, specializing in assassination. And after the tragic death of Xuan Huazi, Xuan Yuzi and others, the pictures left by the murderer at the scene have a bit of the flavor of Xuanyingmen's murder.

Therefore, Qingjing Peak secretly took those ghost dragon monks of Rakshasa Peak as the key object of suspicion. first sent someone to pass on the book, and then secretly launched a targeted investigation. For a while, the relationship between the two peaks suddenly became tense, and the monks under him also beat me and killed me several times, but fortunately, the high-level leaders of both sides were still relatively restrained, and there were secret meetings in the follow-up, but there was no real situation of hostile fighting between the two peaks.

It didn't take long for several headless public cases to appear in Lushan. The victims were both good and evil, men and women, but the methods of killing were exactly the same, and after the killing, the clothes of the victims were left at the scene, and the clothes were windless and automatic, making miserable screams. If someone listens, there will be a scene in front of them, the same dark black background, in the center of the pale red circle, and the figure of the victim around the center of the circle.

In a word, Lushan has a serial killer. For a time, Lushan, especially in the sea of clouds, those scattered cultivators, everyone was in danger, and they talked about the tiger's color.

The more people are killed, the more public cases there are, and the more clues there are. Despite the cunning of the murderer, people with a heart visited them one by one, and found that some of the murders were actually committed by someone who entrusted an assassination organization called Xuanyingmen. Within a few days, news spread in secret, saying that there was also a Xuanying Gate in the world, which was formed by a person named the Black Dragon Envoy among the ghost dragon monks in the East China Sea. But this kind of rumor soon disappeared, because, soon the entire Lushan knew that the Black Dragon Envoy was the chief elder of the current Rakshasa Peak, and the Xuanying Gate in the human world was formed by one of its clones, with the intention of eliminating violence and peace and doing the right thing for the heavens. Moreover, the Black Dragon Envoy personally said that the Xuanying Gate in the human world no longer exists. Immediately afterwards, Qingjing Peak issued a reward, if someone provided clues to the real murderer information of the Xuanying Gate in the world, he would be rewarded with a piece of exercise, and even allowed to join Qingjing Peak.

As a result, some monks in Lushan Yunhai became busy again, going east to Western Europe, to eliminate violence, peace and goodness, and support justice. At this time, the organization that called itself the Xuanying Sect seemed to be intimidated by the prestige of Qingjing Peak and Rakshasa Peak, and no longer committed murder and disappeared.

But the investigation is still going on. Especially the people in the Qingjing Peak Daomen, during this time, there are obviously a lot more in the sea of clouds, they are all dressed in light cyan and yellow-edged soft gauze robes, with jade hairpins on their heads, and swords on their backs, often in groups of more than a dozen people, led by one or two real uncles, wandering around the sea of clouds.

The so-called cloud travel is actually a very broad concept or phrase. Traveling in one place, or exploring treasures and collecting medicines, or visiting colleagues, or participating in various exchange conferences and auction conferences, and so on. In fact, it is to do anything, to do whatever you encounter and what you want to do. From a certain point of view, it can be regarded as a kind of sect birth experience. Because, the so-called wealth and wealth law of Daomen are mostly obtained by chance in cloud travel.

However, it is said that in the southwest direction of the sea of clouds in Nalu Mountain, in the buffer gap between the three forces of Lotus Law Peak, Rakshasa Peak and Bauhinia Alliance, there is a small hill within a radius of thousands of miles, called Xuanbing Mountain. The mountain is not high, it is lonely, and the aura is also average, and there is a sect called Xuanbingmen on it. This Xuanbing Sect is also a small sect in the world, and the head of the sect is the late cultivation of the eighth layer of mortal dust, but its main practice "Xuanbing Jue" is used to warm and exercise some sword and other magic weapons, but it is unique. They have no quarrel with the world, and they are at ease when they deal with the monks outside in this way.

On this day, a group of Taoist priests flew to Xuanbing Mountain. The two leading people were in the clouds and fog, and their momentum was extraordinary, and at first glance they were real monks, claiming to be disciples of the Quanzhen Sect of Qingjing Peak, and they had traveled here. was so shocked that the Xuanbing Gate came out to greet him. After some eagerness, this group of Taoist priests stayed down, took out their respective swords, and asked the Xuanbing Sect to improve the sharpness and hardness with the "Xuanbing Technique".

Then, in the midst of the casual conversation, the two conscientious true monks who were the leaders of the Quanzhen Sect mentioned the Xuanying Gate in their words. These two people originally said casually, but since the Lotus Law Peak and the Rakshasa Peak joined forces to issue a reward, the Xuanying Gate seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. But who would have thought, saying this, the big disciple of the Xuanbing Sect who was accompanying him frowned. This frowned, where could he hide the insight of the people of the Quanzhen Sect, and asked carefully, the big disciple of the Xuanbing Sect had to preach in public, some time ago, a group of nine people came to Xuanbing Mountain, begging him to help reshape the white bone sword in the hands of the nine people with the "Xuanbing Jue". Those nine white bone swords are full of yin qi and do not look like things of the righteous path. The nine of them, trying to reshape the sword into various forms, seem to have an attempt to hide their eyes.

What's more, according to the reports of the people below, these nine people usually mentioned the three words Xuanyingmen several times. At that time, the three words of Xuanyingmen were already well-known in Lushan, but this big disciple of Xuanbingmen, when talking to these nine people, pretended to mention it inadvertently, and these nine people flickered their words, as if they were hiding something.

This big disciple of the Xuanbing Sect, with a "seem", a "flickering words", and the gloomy white bone sword, immediately attracted the attention of the Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect.

There are some details that need not be elaborated on. The Quanzhen Sect Taoist priest surrounded these nine people, and after some inquiry, he became even more suspicious, and even if he captured them, he sealed the skills of these nine people, and carried them like an eagle catching a chicken, and flew straight to the Qingjing Peak.

Nine people from the Xuanying Gate, their whereabouts were revealed and captured. The leader is still a female cultivator named Zhang Cuilu.

The news spread far and wide, and suddenly everyone knew about it.

That's right

The gossip incense burner provoked killing, and the Nine Heavens Bone Sword was suspicious.

Mistakes and mistakes appear, and big mistakes are made.
