Early in the morning, the Great Elder and Ming Fan had some breakfast at the inn, and then they prepared to continue to Shanling Mountain to repair the "Dao Sign" sword.

As the two of them were walking towards the gate of the city, they heard the inhabitants of the city discussing a matter in a heated manner.

The city lord of Murong sent out an invitation, wanting to invite all the sects in the vicinity of Shangwu City to attend his one hundred and twenty-sixth birthday next month.

When the people heard the news, most of them were in the mood of watching the excitement, but after learning about this matter, the Great Elder was suspicious.

Murong Jingyi has always had his own purpose in doing things, and when he celebrated his birthday in the past, the people he invited were basically people who had good friendships in private.

And like this time, he invited all the nearby sects in one go, but he had never done it before, as the saying goes, there must be a demon when something goes wrong, not to mention that Murong Jingyi is still just an "old demon".

The Great Elder knew that among the invited sects, there must be the Xuanqing Sect. However, in recent years, the relationship between Xuanqingmen and Murong Mansion has not been very good.

In terms of the establishment time, Murong Mansion is decades earlier than Xuanqingmen, but in terms of prestige, Murong Mansion is far inferior to Xuanqingmen, and the reason is very simple, strength.

Murong He, the head of the family for a generation, is a first-class master, coupled with the strong "Blood Stain Corpse Fragmentation Technique", his strength is difficult to find opponents even among the top first-class masters of the same level, but he is the strength of the acquired level after all. And Xuanyang Zhenren is a master at the innate level, and he is a master who can be counted among the innate people.

The top first-class, first-class masters, second-rate masters and third-rate masters all belong to the acquired level, although they are "one word" difference from the innate masters, but the strength of the two is qualitatively different.

Absorb the qi of the true spirit (the recipe for crushing the corpse is to absorb the yin qi of the corpse) to conceive and refine, so as to strengthen the body, make a move, and open up the mountain and rock, which is the acquired level.

True qi is applied externally, the heart is used to control the qi, the qi is used to control the things, the heaven and the earth are created, and the mountains are moved and reclaimed, this is the innate level.

The difference between innate and acquired has also created a gap in prestige between Xuanqingmen and Murong Mansion. Until the emergence of the three generations of family heads Murong Jingyi.

First of all, the mysterious disappearance of Xuanyang Zhenren caused the biggest reliance of Xuanqing Sect to disappear, and although the four elders were also innate level masters, their strength could not be compared with Xuanyang Zhenren.

However, Murong Jingyi has successfully reached the innate level, and he has gathered many sects with both soft and hard, and the rise and fall of each other has reversed the situation, so that the prestige of Murong Mansion has gradually surpassed that of Xuanqing Gate.

Of course, it is not so easy for Murong Jingyi to annex the Xuanqing Sect, after all, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and although the number of Xuanqing Sect is small, after all, there are still four congenital-level elders.

Therefore, Murong Mansion still wants Xuanqingmen as a "big brother" on the surface, and Xuanqingmen also knows that this "little brother" wants his "life", but he also has to pretend not to know, so Murong Mansion and Xuanqingmen have been in a very delicate state in recent years.

Out of the city gate, the Great Elder flew towards Silent Mountain with Ming Fan in his arms, just like yesterday.

The process of hurrying, let's not mention it for the time being, let's talk about Murong Jingyi first.

Early this morning, the city lord of Murong appointed a few of his subordinates to send invitations to each sect and left the mansion.

A few miles to the west of Shangwu City, there was a quiet lake, and suddenly a figure fell from the sky, it was Murong Jingyi.

"Jiao Eel, Jiao Eel, I have secretly raised you for so long, and now is the time for you to repay me. After speaking, Murong Jingyi took out one of the three black beads that "Brother Mo" gave him yesterday from his arms.

"Drink. Cha Yun Yin and evil qi in his body injected it into the black bead, only to see that the black bead suddenly emitted filthy and evil qi, Murong Jingyi held the bead in his left hand, and guided the filthy qi with his right hand to slowly seep into the lake in front of him.

In a few minutes, all the filthy gas in the beads had been introduced into the lake, and I saw that the eels in the lake gradually changed.

Murong Jingyi drew a trick with both hands and set up an enchantment, covering the traces of this lake, "According to the results of the previous experiments, it should only take a few days to successfully transform. Well...... Next, it's time to head there. After speaking, Murong Jingyi turned around and left.

Let's talk about the Great Elder and Ming Fan, Shangwu City is not very far away from Lonely Mountain, so compared to yesterday, the speed of the Great Elder's imperial qi flight is a little slower.

First, in order to reduce Mingfan's discomfort,

Second, it was also to take this opportunity to introduce Ming Fan to the swordsmith they were going to find this time.

Jue Cangming, a famous swordsmith on the Lingzhou continent, has a carefree personality, is chic and uninhibited, and spends most of his time in Lonely Mountain, rarely walking the rivers and lakes. And it's not just sword casting, Jue Cangming himself is also a master of the innate level, and his swordsmanship cultivation is also unfathomable.

Once, in order to obtain a rare piece of mineral iron, he entered the depths of the volcano, but the volcano suddenly erupted, and the molten was overflowing, just when he was trapped in a deep crisis, Xuanyang Zhenren passed by and rescued him, and then the two went together, got along day and night, and finally became friends.

Later, when he learned that Xuanyang Zhenren had mysteriously disappeared, Jue Cangming spent a long time searching, but he still didn't gain anything, but he didn't give up, and until now he still asks his students to find out the news.

Looking far away, the two of them could already vaguely see the outline of the Lonely Mountain, which was smaller than the Yuqing Mountain Range where the Xuanqing Gate was located.

The Yuqing Mountain Range is made up of several rolling peaks, and the Xuanqing Gate is the highest of the peaks. And Lonely Mountain is a lonely peak.

The Great Elder did not fly directly into the mountain, but landed at the bottom of the mountain, intending to enter the mountain on foot.

The Great Elder explained, "Senior Cangming is a person of the same generation as Shizun, so he must walk into the mountain out of courtesy. Although Cangming's predecessors take this kind of thing very lightly, as juniors, we still have to have the etiquette. ”

Ming Fan nodded and said, "Oh, that's the case, I understand, Great Elder." ”

"Okay, let's go inside. ”

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

After leaving from the lake, Murong Jingyi came to a martial arts retreat in the north of Shangwu City, at this time he was standing outside a cave full of miasma, at the entrance of the cave, there was a stone tablet with three words engraved on it,

"Lingkui Cave"

Murong Jingyi said to the cave, and the true qi said, "Evil Heaven Cave Venerable, Murong Jingyi is here to visit." ”

After a while, I heard a voice coming from inside the cave, "Murong City Lord, please come in." At the same moment, the poisonous miasma on the periphery of the cave had also dissipated.

Murong Jingyi stepped in, it was not the first time he had come to Lingkui Cave, but for the cold breath in the cave, Murong Jingyi really couldn't adapt to it.

At the end of the cave, I saw a stone seat, and there was a wind-dried corpse sitting on it, if you think that this corpse is the Evil Heaven Cave Venerable, then you are wrong.

I saw a necromantic aura floating out of the corpse, slowly condensing into a fat ghost figure.

Murong Jingyi arched his hand and said, "I've seen it, Evil Heaven Cave Venerable." ”

The Evil Heaven Cave Venerable replied in a vague and empty voice, "Murong City Lord, I've seen you for a long time, I don't know why you're here?" ”

"I'm here to give Dongzun the same gift. ”

"What?"

"This is it. ”

The Evil Heaven Cave Venerable saw Murong Jingyi take out a bead from his arms, and wondered, "This is?"

Murong Jingyi smiled lightly, "This is a treasure that can make Dong Zun recover from his injuries. ”

The mountain peak stands, the flowing clouds are discharged, and the mist is shrouded, giving people a looming feeling, and Ming Fan seems to understand why this mountain peak is named "silence".

And inside the mountain is another kind of scenery, a pool of clear water, clouds and mist, the clouds come to the mountain is picturesque, and the fog goes to the mountain better.

Walking to the mountainside, Ming Fan and the Great Elder finally saw a thatched house, and in front of the thatched house, they saw a congenital master dressed in a green shirt and an elegant son's costume who was writing and writing horizontally, waving and chanting poetry

The waning moon hangs on the branches, the ethereal lonely shadow, and the lonely and lonely people drink with whom

Chifeng reverts to Xiao Han, will drink green jade cups, and only wait for the bosom friend to return the wine
