Long before the public surrender of the country to Wangshan, the Holy Fu Dynasty had already felt the slightest chill in the north, and the major vassal states on the frontier sent snowflakes of distress letters, the content was surprisingly consistent, all of them were the demon clan stirring again, and the snow was slow to retreat, and even several vassal states in the south found that this year's winter was particularly long, and the dripping winter rain was mixed with snow hail like rice grains.
The Dao Tong is preparing to retreat as a whole, and Bing Kui is sweeping through the land of demons...... More and more confusing and frightening news came, the building was about to fall, but the Holy Fu Dynasty was a little helpless, the imperial court habitually asked the Longbin Society for help, and the Longbin Society habitually asked the Taoist system for advice, but all the inquiries were either in vain, or only a few ambiguous answers.
The Taoist priests all evacuated the imperial capital, leaving only some ordinary disciples who had not yet achieved Ning Dan, and they didn't know anything about it, and they were even more flustered than the Fu Master of the Longbin Society.
Princess Xijieguo is only just gaining a foothold in the imperial capital, and she is still a long way from taking power, but she still uses her influence to do as much as she can.
She sent letters to the Dao Sects, especially Pang Shan, in her private name, and the answers she received were still not clear enough, but they were enough to lead her to the most tragic conclusion: the Dao Commanders had really decided to give up the whole world, and the Holy Fu Dynasty was losing its most powerful patron.
Except for a few cronies, she did not spread the news, but searched for the remaining warriors in the chaotic court and the dragon bin, and secretly united them to form a small but most determined force.
Sending an envoy to the kingdom of sacrifice was one of the actions promoted by the princess herself, and at that time the king was still waiting and watching, and the emperor was unwilling to show weakness to the former vassal state, and the emperor even wanted to issue a decree ordering the king to come to the imperial capital in person to show his loyalty. The princess operated in many ways to make the emperor understand that the time has changed, and the country of sacrifice can no longer use the same set as before, and must take the initiative to win over, not seeking unity, at least let the country of half-demons remain neutral.
The holy talisman messenger set off from the imperial capital non-stop, used up countless talismans along the way, and rushed to the capital of the country in the shortest time, but the time was still too late. The King of Sacrifice had already made up his mind to follow Wangshan, but refused to receive the messenger due to illness, but instead sent an order to search for the human race throughout the country.
Hong Futian and others followed the envoy as the princess's cronies to sacrifice their lives to the country, and found that it was impossible for the king to change his mind, and he did not want to return in vain, so he wanted to make a little trouble.
The young and enthusiastic cultivator Ouyang Li quickly spoke in place of his master Hong Futian, "The Sacrifice King was conquered by the Tuoshan Demon King, so we thought it would be better to kill the Demon King while she was still weak, we know that the Demon King was once a true illusion of a seeker." But she has long been transformed by the magic of the demon race, and she is no longer the dragon demon she used to be. โ
A total of more than 100 cultivators and talisman masters followed the envoy to the country of sacrifice, and their plan was as follows: the weaker half of the people stayed in the capital of the country of sacrifice and continued to deal with the half-demons, and the seven people caused a little trouble in Chaodong Town. The Taoist priest who attracted Tuoshan to enter the demon, and dozens of others have secretly infiltrated Tuoshan, waiting for the opportunity to rush to the top of the mountain to kill the demon king.
They rescued a dozen human captives, but disagreed on what to do. Hong Futian, Ouyang Li, and Liu Ding felt that there were too few people to save, not enough to lure the demonic Taoist away from Tuoshan, and they also wanted to rescue all the human captives in the military camp. Chen Guanhuo and the other two felt that it was enough, and they should return to the capital of the country as originally planned.
In the end, it was the loose cultivator named Qin Kun who decided to continue saving people.
Mu Xingqiu had already noticed that Hong Futian was not the leader of these seven people, but Qin Kun was.
Qin Kun looks like he is fifty years old, but in fact he may be more than a hundred years old, his appearance is not good, but his two small eyes are sharp, and he has remained silent since he saw Mu Xingqiu, but whether it is Hong Futian or Ouyang Qi, he has to look at Qin Kun every time he says something, and only after getting acquiescence can he boldly speak.
Hong Futian finally realized his faux pas, interrupted the apprentice who was talking, and introduced the other three to Mu Xingqiu, especially Qin Kun, "Monk Qin is a minister of the imperial palace, has served the imperial family for a long time, and is one of the most trusted ministers of the emperor. โ
Mu Xingqiu pondered for a while before he understood the meaning of "minister", not only was it even more surprising, the human emperor and the dragon guests of various countries had always been jealous of the scattered cultivators, and often ordered to be hunted and killed, and the emperor himself actually left a casual cultivator by his side, and Qin Kun was willing to act as a eunuch, which was really unreasonable.
Mu Xingqiu didn't say anything, and exchanged polite salutes with Qin Kun, and then said: "There is no need to save people for the time being, Tuoshan will soon send a demon Taoist to come, and a trap has been laid in the military camp, so it is not easy to save people." โ
He didn't say that he had saved these seven people, if he hadn't stopped the black phoenix in time, the scattered cultivators and the talisman master would have been reduced to prisoners and become the next group of sacrifices of the Human Flesh Society.
Ouyang Li and Liu Ding were disappointed, but Hong Futian immediately agreed, Qin Kun hesitated a little, "The name of the seeker is like thunder, I have always admired it very much, but I am strict - what is the plan of the seeker?"
Mu Xingqiu briefly said the plan he had come up with, the seven of them looked at each other, they all felt incredible, the four people who knew Mu Xingqiu were better, and they trusted him more, but Qin Kun and the other three who had just met were full of doubts and refused to squeak for a long time.
"There are three Starfall Daoists helping me, and one of them is in the inn in Chaodong Town. Mu Xingqiu knew what these three people were hesitating about
Sure enough, Qin Kun was relieved and said with a smile: "So that's the case, then it's good, let's listen to the catechumen's arrangement." โ
Ouyang Li turned his head and glanced at Liu Ding, the two of them believed in Mu Xingqiu himself.
Mu Xingqiu used magic to return to the inn directly, while Hong Futian and the others fell outside Chaodong Town, pretending to be a foreign demon clan who had just arrived and walked into the town.
More than a dozen humans rescued last night have been hidden in a nearby mountain and don't have to worry for the time being.
In the inn room, the red-faced Yang Chuangzheng was arguing loudly with the smiling black phoenix, and the bald man stood on the table, looking left and right in confusion, obviously not understanding what they were fighting for.
Mu Xingqiu's arrival ended this controversy, Yang Chuang noticed his gaffe, and hurriedly lowered his eyes to recite the scriptures, so that his mood quickly calmed down, but the black phoenix looked like he didn't care if he won or lost. got up and greeted him and said with a smile: "Daozun is back, have you found a loose cultivator? That's a certainty, how can there be anything that Daozun can't do." โ
Mu Xingqiu asked the bald man, "What's the matter?"
"They're arguing about who's bold and who's cowardly, and then ...... I don't understand. The bald man laughed a few times.
The black phoenix walked to Mu Xingqiu's side, his face was extremely clear, and his expression was radiant, as if he had just made a great contribution and was about to receive a heavy reward, "Just a casual chat, I asked Daoist Yang why he didn't retire with Daoist Unity." He said that he was used to the life of idle clouds and wild cranes, and he didn't want to return to the Taoist system, and I said that once I returned to the Taoist system, I would practice again, are you afraid that I won't be able to persevere, and Daoist Yang was angry all of a sudden. โ
Yang Chuang hurriedly wanted to open his mouth to refute, but hurriedly controlled the impulse in his heart, and said to Mu Xingqiu: "The banshee doesn't understand what victory is, the three of us lived in seclusion because of this, and there will be a danger of entering the demon if we return to the Dao system." โ
Mu Xingqiu knew what victory was. It was a competitive but powerless path tribulation, and everyone around me was cultivating, and they had to work hard, but they knew that their efforts would not yield results. After a long time, jealousy will inevitably arise, so Yang Chuang and the others left the Dao system before the jealousy was too strong.
Those with strong Taoist hearts usually stop in front of the Sigh Tribulation, which is to lose the battle with themselves. Only a small number of people who are not strong in the Dao will encounter victory and defeat in comparison with others, in contrast. Victories are rare and not very glorious, Yang Chuang is very sensitive to this matter, and actually fought with a banshee.
Mu Xingqiu had never formed the heart of a Taoist, so he naturally wouldn't laugh at Yang Chuang, but what he noticed was another thing, "Yang Chuang, you have been fooled, the black phoenix is casting demon illusions on you." โ
Yang Chuang was startled, and was about to deny it, but suddenly came to his senses, the banshee didn't know anything about herself, and it was he who unconsciously revealed it and gave her a chance to take advantage of it, this is also an illusion, but it was too faint and didn't even react to the magic weapon in the room.
Yang Chuang was even more annoyed and blamed himself, walked to the corner, turned his back to Mu Xingqiu and the black phoenix, and sat down to enter a state of doubt.
Black Phoenix giggled, "Daozun won't be angry, I don't have bad intentions, it's just a little joke, you know, I haven't been learning the Demon Illusion for a long time, I always want to try the effect, Daozun just learned the Mind Illusion Technique, and it was the same when Daozun just learned to read the Mind Illusion, right?"
Mu Xingqiu asked directly: "When will the demonic Taoist of Tuoshan arrive in Chaodong Town?"
"Hmm...... I'm not very strict about the situation here, he'll probably arrive before dark, just in time for tonight's doxing. โ
This is the same as Mu Xingqiu thought, "Let me see your doppelganger technique." โ
The black phoenix smiled even more ambiguously, as if he couldn't control himself, and cast a little demon illusion, "One black phoenix is not enough for Dao Zun, do you have to have two?"
The black phoenix did not refuse, raised his right hand, held a black feather, and circled in place, suddenly the smoke rose, her bones crackled, and after a while, the smoke dissipated, and two identical black phoenixes appeared in place, staring at each other, as if looking in the mirror, but the posture was different.
The bald man couldn't help but applaud.
"How many doppelgangers can you make?" asked Mu Xingqiu.
"How many? Dao Zun has a big appetite. "A doppelganger is amazing. "The doppelganger is not an ordinary illusion, even the Taoist priest's heavenly eyes can't tell the truth from the fake. "Dao Venerable, do you want to give it a try?"
The two black phoenixes replied word by word, and looked at each other and smiled, and each other was very satisfied.
Mu Xingqiu pointed to one of them, "I've been tracking your spells. โ
"In other words, Dao Zun can't tell the truth with his eyes alone?" "Hehe, this is enough to make me proud for a while. โ
"Fake stay in Chaodong Town, really follow me to Tuoshan, and set off immediately. โ
"Oh, I smell the smell of ruining miรจ, Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons is right, Daozun will be finished wherever he goes. "But there is one thing that Dao Zun has to know, the farther the distance, the weaker the clone, Tuoshan is more than two hundred miles away, and the clone only has a shell left, but it can't deceive the demon Taoist." โ
"It doesn't matter. โ
There was a knock on the door outside, and Hong Futian and the others arrived.
Mu Xingqiu went to open the door, the two black phoenixes glanced at each other, suddenly put away their smiles, and their clear faces quickly became blurred.
