This sentence is tantamount to admitting the previous crime of assassinating Zhang Feiyang.

Zhang Feiyang is not a fool, although he has been prepared in his heart, if Xiang Dong is really a killer, there will always be a time when the fox tail is exposed, but he never expected it to be like this.

Xiang Dong obviously blew up his identity, but he never did it.

"Why?" Zhang Feiyang was eager to find out the answer to this question, and asked along with Xiang Dong's words.

Xiang Dong was triumphant, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Look at your feet." ”

Seeing that Xiang Dong looked like he was in his chest, not afraid of running away or suddenly counterattacking, Zhang Feiyang's doubts in his heart became even heavier, and he slowly lowered his head and looked at the ground under his feet.

I saw a pitch-black horizontal line appear at his feet, separating him from Xiang Dong and dividing it into two sides.

On the other side of this black line, there is nothing unusual about the ordinary ground where Xiang Dong is standing, but on the ground on the side of the black line where he is located, there are more black lines densely packed, and I don't know how many symbols the size of a palm are drawn.

Each symbol was crooked and twisted together, as if groups of tadpoles had gathered into a pile, and Zhang Feiyang didn't know a word.

Seeing Zhang Feiyang's blank face, Xiang Dong began to explain with a smile: "You must be very strange, what do these symbols mean, right? They are a circle. This circle is used to suppress monsters. ”

Zhang Feiyang didn't believe it, if this was the case, the magic circle must be very powerful.

Since the magic circle is very powerful, it must be something very important to the Firefox Sect.

But why is there almost no one to guard all the way?

As if seeing through Zhang Feiyang's thoughts, Xiang Dong continued: "Don't worry. I know what you're thinking right now. The magic circle is so powerful, it should be guarded. Actually, of course, it was guarded before. I also listened to my older generation. But now there is no need for guards. Because, it was used to suppress the demon beast Fire Fox. ”

Zhang Feiyang was taken aback.

Isn't the so-called demon beast Fire Fox the guardian beast of the Fire Fox Sect now?

He thought about it for a moment before he understood.

Zhou Zhou Xian once told him that a long time ago, before the Fire Fox Sect was founded, there was indeed a demon beast Fire Fox here that was very powerful, and later, after being subdued, there was a Fire Fox Sect.

And that person was the first generation of the Firefox Sect's sect master.

Could it be that the ancestor of the Firefox Sect was the Firefox who relied on the magic circle under his feet to suppress it?

The more Zhang Feiyang looked at it, the more he felt that it was not like it, and when he was about to ask, Xiang Dong explained with a smile: "I don't believe it, right? When I first found out that there was a place, I didn't believe it. But it's true. It's just that this magic circle under your feet, that is, this cave, is just one of the eyes of the formation that suppressed the demon beast Fire Fox at the beginning. ”

"Or, to be more precise, our entire Firefox Mountain is a huge magic circle, and in order for this magic circle to work, it needs to activate the array eyes located in several major directions at the same time. The circle under your feet is one of those circles. Of course, the power can't be compared to the one who suppressed the Firefox in the first place, but it is enough to kill you. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Feiyang was startled again, his heartbeat accelerated violently, and he was about to raise his feet to escape from the range of the formation and return to the other side of the safe black line, but he tried his legs and found that he couldn't move.

At this point, his legs seemed to be pinned to the ground, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move.

At the same time, the words of the circle in the eyes of the array suddenly writhed together, emitting a faint light, as if hundreds of tadpoles were moving regularly.

The text writhed faster and faster, and after a breath, suddenly, it stopped again.

But at this stop, the area where Zhang Feiyang was standing, the ground lit up with a white light, and it quickly froze, freezing the stone wall with the ground and Zhang Feiyang's feet.

Seeing that his feet were covered with a layer of ice in a blink of an eye, and he had become one with the ground, although the ice was not very thick, he couldn't move anyway, he couldn't move, his whole body was numb, and he obviously wanted to pull out the hand of the spirit stone powder to fight back for Xiang Dong, but he couldn't do it, Zhang Feiyang hated Xiang Dong in his heart, and regretted that he shouldn't have been distracted by greedy for his magic weapon.

But at this time, when he thought about it again, he also knew that it was meaningless, and he just wanted to understand all his doubts before he died, instead of being a fool.

As for begging for mercy or anything, he wouldn't do it.

Because, he didn't believe it could be useful at all.

In order to kill himself cleanly, Xiang Dong thought of this method deliberately, he must hate himself to the core, how could he let himself go because of one or two sentences of begging for mercy.

Thinking that the path of cultivating immortals had not yet begun, and it was terminated here, Zhang Feiyang took a deep breath, forcibly restrained the unwillingness in his heart, and asked, "Xiang Dong." The last time you attacked me at night, was you?"

"That's right. You guessed it. That's me. Maybe Zhang Feiyang was already in a desperate situation, and there was no possibility of survival, Xiang Dong no longer covered up and hidden, and replied straightforwardly.

Zhang Feiyang nodded, restrained the urge to curse him, and began to ask the most insoluble question: "What is the reason for that? I have no blood feud with you, and I have no grudges, why do I have to kill me? Won't you have to kill me just because I made you unhappy when I was selecting outer disciples, right?"

Seeing Zhang Feiyang's puzzled expression, Xiang Dong laughed, as if he had heard some funny joke, slapped his thigh and hammered the stone wall, and after a while, he calmed down.

When he looked at Zhang Feiyang again, he saw that the ice under his feet had spread rapidly, climbed to the knee level, and continued to cover upward, Zhang Feiyang's face was as pale as a dead man, Xiang Dong nodded with satisfaction, and explained: "It's all to blame for you being too good." You're so good that I feel in danger.

So, so that you don't become a problem for me in the future. I have to strike first and kill you. Only in this way can I have the opportunity to become an inner disciple. ”

Zhang Feiyang listened carefully, and while listening, he simply sorted out the entire system of the Fire Fox Sect in his mind, and finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter and solved the doubts that had been bothering him for a long time.

It turns out that in the Firefox Sect, there is a strict hierarchy.

These grades are generally divided into these levels from highest to lowest.

The highest is the suzerain.

This is followed by the elder level.

Again, the first to wait is the inner disciple.

And the lowest-level people are naturally the outer disciples.

Under normal circumstances, the disciples recruited by the Firefox Sect every month are all outer disciples.

These outer disciples are responsible for doing dirty work for people above the inner disciples.

That's what makes six.

Starting from the Alchemy Department and continuing to the Laundry Department, all the outer disciples were responsible for their work like the low-level coolies in mortals.

Every day, every day, is a lot of work.

They are responsible for cultivating the land suitable for cultivating spiritual grass throughout the sect, going to dangerous mountains and forests to collect precious medicinal herbs, making simple healing pills and power-enhancing pills according to the recipes handed down by the inner disciples, transporting and burying corpses, building and repairing houses where everyone lives, and washing and making clothes.

Therefore, there are only a handful of people who can really have the opportunity to cultivate.

But it is precisely because of this that those outstanding outer disciples who can complete their daily workload early will stand out, let some inner disciples take a fancy to them, and then get some guidance in cultivation.

If an outstanding outer disciple successfully steps into the realm of cultivating immortals through hard cultivation and completely separates himself from mortals, then they will have the opportunity to enter the inner gate and become an inner disciple for cultivation.

This is the approximate system of the earliest Firefox Sect.

In fact, this system is originally quite healthy, everyone has their own duties, no one will have the opportunity to spend their glory leisurely, and it can solve the shortage of inner disciples in the sect, and it is a good way to kill two birds with one stone through natural selection of outstanding disciples.

But the bad thing about this system is that there is only one disciple who can enter the inner gate from the outer gate every year, and the competition is too cruel.

Unless it is a special circumstance, if you generally want to become an inner disciple, you first need to learn the "Qi Refining Technique", so that you can completely break away from mortals and become an immortal cultivator.

This eliminated a large number of outer disciples.

Secondly, every year, if there is no accident, it is also necessary to start a martial arts competition for outer disciples at the end of the year, and only the outer disciples who win to the end can get the opportunity to enter the inner gate, get a higher cultivation technique than the "Qi Refining Technique", and improve the cultivation from the early stage of the Qi refining period to the late stage of the Qi refining period.

Xiang Dong is the unfortunate son who has been defeated and defeated again and again over the years.

In the past ten years, he was either second or third, and all in all, he had never succeeded in winning the first place, which also made him take the opportunity to become an inner disciple very seriously.

If there is no Zhang Feiyang, Xiang Dong is full of confidence in this year's martial arts competition, even if there are a few strong old opponents, he has also prepared a follow-up move.

But Zhang Feiyang was born out of nowhere, but Xiang Dong keenly smelled the danger in an instant.

Because, he witnessed with his own eyes how Zhang Feiyang went from being a genius who couldn't even pass the test of a foreign disciple, but later passed the test with the first place, and then later, even if he came to the laundry department and was stabbed twice at close range, he could still be an immortal genius.

There is an unwritten rule in the Firefox Sect that people who fail to compete for the place of inner disciple more than ten times will forever lose the opportunity to be selected as an inner disciple.

Xiang Dong knows his physical condition too well, if he deliberately avoids Zhang Feiyang and drags on for a few more years, he will be old, he is now in peak condition, this year is the last and most suitable opportunity, he can't gamble on any uncertain future with the declining state in the future.

This is the real reason why he wants to kill Zhang Feiyang.

Now Zhang Feiyang has not grown up, his strength is far inferior to him, but after being stabbed twice at close range, he can still be alive, if he has the opportunity to contact "Qi Refining Technique" in the future. Can that still deal with him?

Xiang Dong felt like a mirror in his heart.

Seeing that Zhang Feiyang had covered all the ice surfaces in his helpless gaze, and his whole body was frozen into a piece of ice, like an ice sculpture, no longer motionless, he smiled slightly, turned around, and was about to leave with a swagger.

But after taking two steps, a red light suddenly lit up from the ice, reflecting the entire cave in red.

Xiang Dong paused and looked back.

I saw that Zhang Feiyang's whole body was covered with a layer of red light, and the outer layer of ice was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye, getting thinner and thinner, less and less.

Xiang Dong's eyes widened in disbelief: "How can this be? How could there be a way to break the eye of the formation here?
