Chapter 873: The Mirror of Observation
The water in the river was rushing, only a small piece was still like a mirror, reflecting the stars and moon in the sky, and there was one face, but it was not just Zuo Liuying: first the half-demon Li Qingzhu, and after a while, he became Yishijun, then the dragon demon, and then Zuo Liuying, and the four faces took turns to change, occasionally showing the background of their location.
Li Qingzhu, Yi Shijun, and Dragon Demon were all flying, and only Zuo Liuying stayed where he was.
Shen Hao walked over, stood side by side with Zuo Liuying, seven steps apart, stared at the changing images on the river for a while, and sighed lightly, "Zuo Liuying is Zuo Liuying, how did you find out?"
"I don't need to find anything, the Dao system hasn't changed much in the years since its retirement, I just need to think about what the Daoist priests used to do to know what you will do now. ”
Shen Hao sighed again, "The Dao system now has five Moon-Serving Daoists and nearly a hundred Divine Daoists. ”
"Hmm. Zuo Liuying was not surprised, but was more confident in the judgment just now.
Shen Hao left more than a dozen bronze mirrors behind him, and then summoned another one, only the size of a palm, "This is a mirror made of the afterglow of the Great Bright Treasure Mirror of the Summoning Mountain, and the humans and demon clans who have been illuminated by it once will appear in the mirror even if they flee to the ends of the earth." ”
Zuo Liuying knew the origin of this mirror, "The mirror of the shape is very precious, the Great Light Treasure Mirror can only be made at the same time, the new mirror is born, the old mirror is destroyed, and your side is new." Well...... Several other Dao Treasure Treasures seem to have blessed it with some spells, such a treasure mirror that in the past only Grandmaster could hold. Zuo Liuying said.
"I'm not a grandmaster, I'm just a ...... Note Shinto Taoist. Shen Hao turned his head to look at Zuo Liuying.
"You are the other mirror of the form. Zuo Liuying said.
"Huh. You're right, the Dao system does cost me a lot, like a mirror of the shape. The Nine Arcana Treasures have strengthened my Inner Dan. I am grateful to the Dao system, of course, there are also my own efforts here, there are not many people who have the heart of a complete Taoist, and even fewer physiques can withstand the blessings of the Supreme Treasure, and I am one of them. ”
Shen Hao talked about his own affairs, but there was no smugness in his tone. "If you can share the spells in the Mirror of Formation, it should be at least the Moonlight Realm. ”
"Sevenfold. ”
Shen Hao was not surprised, "Only one of the five Daoist priests who serve the moon has reached the seventh level. The previous patriarch Fang Xunmo once left a will, and the first Taoist priest to reach the realm of serving the sun is the new patriarch, and you are very close to this goal. ”
"I'm no longer a Taoist, this body and Neidan are all made of magic. If the Dao declares that I am not human. I can't argue with that. ”
Shen Hao laughed, and was able to smile casually in front of Zuo Liuying, which was a great act for any Taoist priest, "Dao Tong doesn't care about these details, we just want to get an ancestor as much as possible, the sooner the better, this is not a private competition, but a major event related to the future of Dao Tong." So. The door of the Dao system is open to you, and the Nine Great Treasures can elevate me from Dining Xia to Concentration. I'm sure they'll also be the first to get you to the Servant Sun realm. ”
Shen Hao paused for a moment and continued, "I'm not one of the five Moon-Serving Daoists, but I can speak on their behalf. ”
"Are the Nine Supreme Treasures really so powerful?" Zuo Liuying seemed to be a little moved.
"The accumulation of more than 100,000 years, even if more than half of the strength of the Taoist system is hidden in the treasure, of course, the treasure is not omnipotent, the heart of the Taoist, the firm physique, the strong will, and a little luck, these four things are indispensable, my physique and will are slightly worse, so I can only stop in the realm of the gods. You are different, you are Zuo Liuying, a wizard of Taoism, and the form you have refined with spells is an advantage. Your luck is never bad, as long as you are willing to return to the Taoist system, you will be the first Taoist priest to serve the sun in tens of thousands of years, and you are also the thirty-eighth generation patriarch. ”
Zuo Liuying slowly inhaled a breath of air, and a few ripples appeared on the calm water, "What about Mu Xingqiu, do you also welcome him back to the Dao system?"
"Of course, as long as he can prove that he is still a Taoist. ”
"I don't need proof?"
"You've proven it. Shen Hao shook the Mirror of Observation in his hand, and more than a dozen bronze mirrors hanging in the air behind him flew in a line, becoming one with the Mirror of Inspection.
The calm surface of the river was gone, the water was murmuring, and no more faces appeared.
Shen Hao is a Divine Daoist, but with the help of the Mirror of Observation, he is not afraid of Zuo Liuying, who is subdued by the Seven Layers of the Moon, and even if he can't win, he has a way to retreat.
Zuo Liuying turned to face Shen Hao, this is the former little Taoist priest of Pangshan, after the tempering of the Nine Great Treasures, he can now compete with him, "The Tao is not the only one, the Nine Great Treasures can indeed help me, but they are placed on the old road of the Dao system, and I want to continue on the path I have chosen." ”
"The old road is not a dead road, on the contrary, the Taoist system has had an endless era of Taoist priests serving the sun, which proves that the old road is the thoroughfare, and such an era is coming again. ”
Zuo Liuying shook his head, "In the early days of the Dao system, the power of the Nine Great Treasures was far less powerful than it is now, and the Daoists of the Sun Mang abounded, but now they have to be cultivated with the help of the Nine Great Treasures, there are some things wrong here, Shen Hao, can you solve the doubts in my heart?
"I believe it's just a matter of time, with the first Taoist priest of the Rimang, there will soon be a second and third place, the Nine Great Treasures are just an introduction, and the future Taoist priests will be promoted to the highest level with their own strength. Shen Hao said.
"This is exactly the difference between me and other Taoist priests twenty years ago, I don't believe that the example of the Taoist priest and the pressure of the demon clan will have such a big effect, the Taoist priest is not a mortal, how can the heart of the Taoist be affected by the outside world? ”
Could Shen Hao, who was in the Divine Realm, be able to anticipate Zuo Liuying's answer? He sighed softly again, "The Nine Great Treasures can improve the Inner Dan realm, but they can't improve the state of mind, and sometimes, I still think like a Daoist Xia priest. I hope you can return to the Dao system, after all, your inner Dan is cultivated by yourself, and your state of mind is higher. What a pity...... I believe this is a loss for the Daotong. ”
The night breeze was blowing, the Taoist robe fluttered like flowing water, Zuo Liuying was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "You have murderous intentions." ”
"Because I'm obsessed with slaying demons. Shen Hao said calmly.
Zuo Liuying turned his head, and the two eyes under the straw hat were clearer than the water of the small river, "If you have a heart first, then you have the intention to move, and the killing intention is before killing the demon and eliminating the demon, which is why the Dao Tong sent you out, the Tao is natural, they need your killing intention, at the beginning, who is the demon you kill, and in the end you will find that whoever you want to kill is the demon." ”
Shen Hao understood, this is also a fighting method, and he is gradually falling from an even match, his opponent is Zuo Liuying, one of the smartest Taoist priests in the history of Taoism, who can often defeat his opponent by surprise. Shen Hao shook the mirror in his hand, the river stopped flowing instantly, but it did not condense into ice, and after a while, the water flowed as usual, and Shen Hao's face showed a smile again.
"You're suspicious. Shen Hao said, deciding to attack instead of defending, so as not to go too far along the other party's train of thought, "You are very satisfied with the current body, and even think that it is more perfect than the original body before, but you don't understand one thing, body and soul, who has more credit for your Moon Mangnedan." If every qiē is given by the Dharma body, then what is the difference between you and a Taoist priest who uses the Nine Supreme Treasures to ascend to the Inner Dan? You want to open up a new path, but you are afraid that you will end up on the same path, and before you know it, you will return to the old path of the Dao system. ”
The small mirror in Shen Hao's hand flickered, Zuo Liuying's right hand pinched the fire technique, and his left hand was behind him, as if he wanted to give a salute, but his body was straight, and only Shen Hao, who was seven steps away, could see Zuo Liuying's straw hat trembling slightly.
In the distance, eight Taoist priests controlled the magic weapons around them with different magic techniques, their expressions became more and more cold, and the children instinctively sensed danger, and all ran behind the adults.
"What are the priests doing?" asked a child in a very low voice.
Shen Xiuming raised his hand and rubbed the top of the child's head, and looked at the two people by the river, "The Taoist priests are fighting. ”
"But they didn't do anything, did they? just...... Move your fingers. The child leaned on Shen Xiuming's lap and raised his head, his dirty little face covered with dust.
Shen Xiuming hadn't done his cultivation homework for a long time, the seven orifices that had been opened in the cave had been closed, and now he was like an ordinary mortal, he couldn't see or feel anything, "This is another kind of battle, it's more intense and powerful than direct action, remember this scene, there aren't many opportunities for humans to see such a scene." ”
"My brother also learned this method of fighting?"
Shen Xiuming nodded.
More than a dozen adults and seven or eight children all stared, trying to observe every subtle move of the Taoist priests, they could indeed remember such a scene, but they couldn't think of how to tell others about the fierceness and tension of this battle in the future.
A small fragment of the straw hat on Zuo Liuying's head fell, fluttered in the wind, turned around a few times, and landed on the surface of the river, lighter than a leaf, a straw stick a little bigger than a fingernail, but it caused a big change: the river within miles was all gone, no steam rising, no sign of moving, and the water was gone.
The straw sticks turned to ashes and disappeared.
The river on the west side of Yelin Town is not big, it is not small, the riverbed suddenly revealed, and the residents of Yelin Town in the distance were startled, the crutches in the old man's hand fell off his palm, the young man took a deep breath, and couldn't spit it out for a long time, his chest was bulging high, and the child hugged the adult's leg tightly, but his eyes were unblinking.
They finally have something to say later.
Shen Hao's face changed slightly, and he raised the Observation Mirror above his head, "What did you do?"
The river was rolling upstream, and a sturdy young man came out of the woodland on the opposite bank, holding a lamb tightly in his arms, and asked blankly but cautiously, "Is this Yelin Town? ”
Zuo Liuying helped the straw hat, "Mu Xingqiu is already gone, he can't be seen by the mirror of the shape." ”
Shen Xiuming heard a familiar voice ringing in his mind at this moment, his arm moved slightly, and he didn't know whether he should raise his hand according to Shen Hao's previous instructions.
