Chapter 488: Amber and the Daoist
(Thanks to the sub-version of "Muzi Jen" for the red tip.) )
The past flashed on the surface of the Lake of Mind, like a flock of migratory birds rushing south for the winter, but they would never stay here to rest again.
Sun Yulu, a Taoist priest in Chaojing Mountain, looked at the huge piece of amber from afar, and said that the people inside had disappeared, but she always felt that she vaguely saw something, she smiled, the Taoist priest's heart could not forget the deeds and emotions of the past, but it would not make waves because of this, she felt ridiculous about it, and at the same time a little nostalgic, just like an adult remembering the scene of playing with mud when she was a child.
She stood on a low peak, the ground beneath her feet barren of grass, exposing large rocks, and it was not the autumn wind that swept away the flowers and dirt, but the war of yesterday. At the foot of the mountain is the hometown of the old ancestral peak, like a dry lake, with amber suspended in the middle, three feet above the ground, the shimmering light, and there is no magical effect of absorbing all kinds of power.
A large group of Taoist priests flew over the amber, and one of them broke away from the group and flew towards Sun Yulu.
Mu Xingqiu landed on another rock, dozens of steps away from the Taoist priest of Ranjing Mountain, and the two saluted each other.
"Are you going to the land of demons?" Sun Yulu asked, the group of Taoist priests had already flown away, and they didn't deliberately wait for Mu Xingqiu.
"Well, everything has been arranged, and everyone thinks the sooner you go, the better. "Mu Xingqiu originally wanted to leave earlier, the longer the Demon Invasion Daoists stayed, the more suspicious they became, it was better to leave early and leave a good impression on each other, but he was delayed by some miscellaneous matters, so he had to wait all night.
"I seem to have seen Zuo Liuying, he wants to continue to supervise your demonization, right?"
Not only that, but he had to continue his practice. ”
"Continue to cultivate?" Sun Yulu was taken aback, "I thought it would ...... Didn't he encounter the Sigh Tribulation?"
"He probably found a way to crack it, Zuo Liuying won't explain much, he just asked the bald man to sue us, and he will never speak again in the future, and no one should disturb him. ”
This is indeed Zuo Liuying's style. Sun Yulu smiled, "Zuo Liuying is a lonely Taoist priest, why doesn't he find a place to live in seclusion?
"We all have to look for another Shijun, just along the way. ”
"To get rid of demons?"
Qi Wusupreme collected five demon seeds, which brought great trouble to the Dao system, indicating that the guards of Wangshan were becoming more and more lax, and the number of demon seeds that had escaped was increasing. The return of the demons to the world is no longer an unknown prophecy, but a process that has already begun, and the Taoist system is deeply shocked, and the Taoist priests can no longer say that this is a matter after death. began to prepare for the battle of demon eradication in earnest, and Zuo Liuying's magic control technique was one of the methods.
"To get rid of demons. The demon seed has weaknesses, but Zuo Liuying's demon control technique is based on the blood sacrifice of the demon clan, the cost is too great, the old wound has not healed, and a new wound has been added. ”
The half-demon Yin is unsinkable, claiming that he can crack the Demon Venerable Fa. It turned out that it was difficult for him to even read the literal meaning, Zuo Liuying was proficient in the magic script, and he had read the original words on the scroll, but he couldn't understand the meaning of it. It is a long record describing the process of the growth and redivision of the demon seed, and there is no specific method.
Zuo Liuying felt that the opposition between Dao and Demon was too strict to understand each other, and the Demon Clan, which was inextricably linked to the Demon Clan, might be able to comprehend the Demon Venerable Fa from a novel perspective. This demon is by no means unsinking, nor is it a dead Qi Supreme, only the old and different Shijun. The weird old demon who unearthed countless ancient witchcraft and gave them away at will.
Dao Tong attaches more importance to Yi Shijun, and has been looking for it for several years, Zuo Liuying feels that it is not enough, he wants to go out in person to meet this mysterious old demon.
Sun Yulu nodded, in fact, she didn't care much about these things, and looked at Amber in the distance again, "He's really dead?"
"The moment he turned into an amber Taoist, the Meng Du Sect was already dead, and all that was left was a shadow, which I saw with my own eyes inside, and when I touched it, the shadow disappeared. ”
"He always likes to take dangerous paths, and I don't know if he is a sinner or a hero of Taoism?"
Mu Xingqiu thought for a while, "At least the amber he left behind is still a treasure, although it can't absorb mana, but the power stored in it is enough, and Asan will take it away soon." ”
"Asan, why not Pangsan?"
"Because Pang Shan wanted a large number of new disciples, and the Xijie Kingdom would not restore its former population for a long time, Pang Shan exchanged amber for the right to choose disciples within the territory of Asan, and Asan sent out the sword washing pool, which was the most meritorious, and they felt that this was a well-deserved reward. ”
Sun Yulu, who has the heart of a Taoist priest, couldn't help but have a hint of sarcasm in her laughter, "Yes, Asan does need amber more than other Taoist sects. That's how they allowed you to take the bald man?"
"The Asan Taoist priests can't be untrustworthy, they made a promise to Zuo Liuying not to harm the bald man, but they also sent Zhou Qianhui, the first of the Asan Divine Engineering Department, to join our team. ”
Zhou Qianhui's only task is to bring the bald man back to Asan when he dies.
Mu Xingqiu didn't come over to see Sun Yulu to talk about these gossips, he was about to say something important, when several Taoist priests flew in the distance and came directly to this mountain.
The first one to fall was Xiao Qingtao, "Fortunately, you didn't go far, I'm going to go to the land of demons with you." ”
Without waiting for Mu Xingqiu to answer, the second person arrived, Xin Youtao smiled and said, "Count me in, Asan has already sucked out the droplets of the Angry Sea tide for me, and I'm fine now." ”
The third person is Xiao Artemisia, riding a flea, sleepy-eyed, not at all like a Taoist priest who condenses qi into a pill, "Why don't you call me a sound? What about the bald man? I want to settle accounts with him, and tell him to ......wake me up."
Seeing that the bald man was not here, Artemisia patted the Kirin's neck and chased to the north.
"The Taoist priest in this team will fall into the demon at any time...... "The reason why Mu Xingqiu is reluctant to bring others is because he is too risky, what will the Taoist priest do, no one can guess, he will take the risk himself, he doesn't want his friends to follow the danger, as for Zuo Liuying and Zhou Qianhui, they all have tasks in their bodies, and they don't need Mu Xingqiu to be responsible.
Xiao Qingtao interrupted Mu Xingqiu's words, "Just like a non-demon Taoist will rebel at any time, I will be more comfortable with you, and I will also help Yang Qingyin." ”
Mu Xingqiu's mother, who had just persuaded Yang Qingyin not to follow, did not need to follow before leaving, but Xiao Qingtao was different. After this Dao Demon War, non-demons became more and more suspicious in the Dao system, and they could hardly make friends, "Okay. Mu Xingqiu agreed, and turned his gaze to Xin Youtao, feeling both natural and surprised by his decision.
Xin Youtao seems to have made up her mind to please Xiao Qingtao, and he will naturally go wherever she goes, but daring to follow a piece to the dangerous land of demons and get along with a group of demon invasion Taoist priests day and night is still a bit unexpected by Mu Xingqiu.
Xin Youtao coughed. Zhengse said: "It seems that I will live to see the demon clan return to the world, in that case, why don't you adapt to it earlier? I am the prince of Xijie, or the master of the talisman, even if it is a representative sent by mortals." ”
These words were said in a fair and straightforward manner, and Mu Xingqiu and Xiao Qingtao could not refute it.
"Okay, you both come with me, but it's not a promise, it's not an obligation. You can leave at any time. Mu Xingqiu said.
Xiao Qingtao smiled, her starfall Ruyi was destroyed, and she was replaced with a new Ruyi that was not very handy, and the imperial weapon flew up. Go after the team ahead of you.
Xin Youtao winked at Mu Xing and followed closely behind Xiao Qingtao, who had another batch of talismans from the nearby human army, stepping on a huge plate like a shield. The flight speed is quite fast, so that it will not be left by the little green peach.
"You have a few good friends. Sun Yulu smiled, "This is not like a Taoist priest who concentrates on cultivation and pursues the origin of Dao Fire. ”
Some Taoist priests have a more intimate relationship. But between practice and friendship, the former always has the absolute upper hand, and no Taoist priest will even choose between the two. Xiao Qingtao is not the only non-demon disciple in the Taoist system, only she is willing to follow Mu Xingqiu to save Yang Qingyin, for the Taoist, this is the closest behavior to friendship.
Shen Hao is another kind of friend, and he has promised to lead the Demon Slayer Society to attack the land of demons and reunite with Mu Xingqiu.
Mu Xingqiu smiled, "Listen to me, the Mengdu Sect is dead, but he has something left." ”
"What?" Sun Yulu asked in amazement.
"The soul, the shadow in the middle of the amber is the soul of the Mondu, it is wrapped in amber and has not dissipated. ”
Sun Yulu was even more surprised, she was a Taoist priest of the Lamp and Candle Sect, and she knew more about souls, but she had never heard of such a thing, and she had never seen similar records in the vast number of books, and suddenly she understood one thing, "You sucked his soul into the Frost Soul Sword?"
Mu Xingqiu nodded, "The soul of the Mengdu Sect is very unique, and the suction of amber comes from it. Zuo Liuying blessed the Frost Soul Sword with some spells, and controlled this suction, so I could use the sword to absorb the demon seed. ”
"All he thinks about in his heart is to practice, and he will not regret it until he dies, so his soul continues to practice and turns his body into amber. Sun Yulu suddenly realized, a little glad in her heart, if she didn't survive the love tribulation, she was afraid that she would be very sad at this time, because Meng Yuanhou had no place for her in his heart.
She glanced at Amber again.
"Why are you suing me about this? This should be your secret with Zuo Liuying. Sun Yulu was a little puzzled.
Mu Xingqiu also glanced at Amber in the distance, he suddenly decided to do this the moment he saw Sun Yulu's figure on the way, the heart of the Taoist priest will not let a person completely abandon his desires, and he will not care about the past at all until the star falls or even the realm of the gods.
"Zhou Qianhui saw that I used the Frost Soul Sword to absorb the demon seed, and sooner or later the Taoist priests of Asan would guess the truth based on this, and they would catch up and ask me to hand over the soul, but I didn't want to hand it over to them. ”
Asan paid a lot of money to get the ownership of Amber Daoist, of course, both "Amber" and "Taoist", Mu Xingqiu didn't want to hand it over, not only because he was more familiar with Meng Yuanhou, but also because the future was full of dangers, he needed the art of the body, and Meng Yuanhou's soul absorbed all kinds of power indiscriminately, which was also a hint to the origin of Dao Fire.
Sun Yulu pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "The demon land is dangerous, Chaojing Mountain owes you a lot of favors, and I can't repay it, so I'll give you a gift." But you can only use it quietly, and never let anyone notice it. ”
Mu Xingqiu gave Sun Yulu a gift of Taoism and thanked her for her help.
