Several people talked downstairs for a long time, when the second floor of the villa suddenly had a violent spiritual power fluctuation, and then a beast's chirp came down.
Shen Chong instantly judged that the beast groan was made by the white fox that Ying Rou had transformed. "It's Sister Rou!"
"Don't worry, it should be that the little white fox has successfully refined the golden pill, and then he has started to practice the 'Hidden Breath Spell'. The rain kite said aloud.
Seeing Xuan Yun and Yu Kite were not in a hurry, Shen Chong was also relieved.
If you care, it will be chaotic, and he will be out of proportion if he cares too much about this newly recognized sister, and the whole house has been banned by the rain kite, even if the spiritual power fluctuates more violently, he doesn't have to worry about being discovered by other cultivators.
The three of them walked into the room where Ying Rou was, and saw that Ying Rou had changed back into a human form and was sitting cross-legged on the bed, obviously having successfully refined the golden pill in the middle stage of Ning Dan at that moment.
"Hey, why didn't Sister Rou's strength improve significantly after refining the Golden Pill?" Shen Chong felt the breath on Ying Rou's body, and asked Xuan Yun in a strange message.
"Your sister Rou is already a demon cultivator in the late stage of Ning Dan, and that golden pill is just the middle stage of Ning Dan, and the power of the Yuan Spirit contained in it is not even one-tenth of her own, at most to help her recover from her injuries, it is only possible to break through to the transformation stage in this way, and it is possible to refine dozens of golden pills in the middle stage of Ning Dan. Xuan Yun replied to Shen Chong.
"Oh!" Shen Chong nodded, in front of Xuan Yun, he was a primary school student who didn't know anything about the cultivation realm, and from time to time he had to ask some questions that only Xiaobai would ask.
"Mind to keep the spirit, the spirit to keep the body, the body to breathe, ah!" The infant Rou who was sitting cross-legged suddenly pinched out a trick, and drank in her mouth, and the feather veil and hair on her body were also fluttering without wind, with the brilliant light around her body, she looked very holy and good-looking.
In just a moment, Ying Rou's hands bloomed like lotus flowers, and dozens of different handprints formed in an instant, and then his lips opened lightly, and he shouted: "Three phases in one, breath at will!"
The brilliance was restrained, and the thick demonic aura that originally permeated the room receded like a tide, and was directly retracted by Ying Rou.
The current baby Rou is like an ordinary person in Shen Chong's eyes, occasionally with a trace of aura leaking, and it is pure without the slightest demonic energy, so people can't find out that she is a demon cultivator.
"Sister Rou, have you succeeded in cultivating?" Seeing Ying Rou slowly open her eyes, Shen Chong suddenly became happy.
"Hmm! Ying Rou smiled shyly, and then bowed down to Xuan Yun: "Ying Rou Xie Yun has given you exercises." ”
Xuan Yun smiled slightly: "Since Shen Chong recognized you as his sister, there is no need to be polite." This 'Hidden Spell' is a small spell, and it is not difficult to learn it, but the effect is very good, unless the other party has a spiritual realm, it will not be able to discover your spirit beast body. ”
Ying Rou nodded, and her heart was full of joy. After practicing this 'Hidden Breath Spell', the sending and receiving of her own breath was all by heart, and from then on, she didn't need to worry about being hunted down by human cultivators again.
Shen Chong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Xuan Yun: "That's right, since the 'Hidden Breath Spell' has such magical powers, why don't Yun'er help me teach those two essences, once their breath is discovered by cultivators, it will also be very dangerous."
Rain Kite refused, "There's no need for that. ”
"Why?" Shen Chong looked at the rain kite, although he knew that the rain kite only had a cold personality and was not bad, but she was always against him, which also made him a little annoyed.
"Let's talk about it!" Xuan Yun was afraid that the two of them would start arguing again, so he hurriedly explained: "The essence of things belongs to a very peculiar spirit beast species, and the aura in their inner pill is even more magical, even if the cultivation is high, it is easy to find it, so unless it is seen by the other party with his eyes, if it is just a breath investigation, ordinary cultivators will not be able to find the essence of matter at all." ”
"Wouldn't it, would it be so amazing?" Shen Chong thought for a while and asked, "But when I met it today, I obviously felt the strange aura of the other party, although it was different from our Yuan Spirit power, but that strange fluctuation and familiar feeling would never be wrong......
"Familiar feeling?" Xuan Yun asked curiously.
Shen Chong was not convinced: "Well, I can't say it, it's just that the breath is very familiar, but I can't remember where I felt that breath." ”
"Could it be the Lei Yuan Spirit Bead?" Xuan Yun's heart moved, it was said that his father's two orbs were born of heaven and earth, so it was not surprising that Shen Chong, who had a orb in his body, was able to detect the alien species born of heaven and earth, the essence of matter.
"Yun'er!Yun'er!What's wrong with you......" Under Shen Chong's call, Xuan Yun came back to her senses.
Xuan Yun said cautiously: "Shen Chong, you don't have to investigate why you can feel the breath of the essence of matter, this is related to a major secret, this kind of secret, not to mention that no one knows in the mortal realm, even in the higher level of the immortal realm, there are only a few people who know it, only some geniuses with good qualifications, or overlords of one side are qualified to know." So you don't have to ask too much, and don't say more, and when you reach the level of cultivation in the future, you will naturally understand the meaning of what I said today. ”
"Oh!" Shen Chong found that many things in Xuan Yun were used to prevaricate later, and he didn't want to tell himself the truth at all.
Suddenly, he remembered a word in Xuan Yun's words just now, and suddenly said in shock: "Yun'er, how can you know about the affairs of the fairy world? And when you talk about the essence of things, you also say, 'You mortals and mortal realm cultivators ......', could it be that you were originally from the immortal realm?"
Seeing that Shen Chong suspected Xuan Yun's identity, Yu Yu hurriedly lied: "Shen Chong, don't guess, the knowledge of the fairy world is also what Sister Yun and I have seen from the secret book left by the master, as for why they know the news of the fairy world, then we don't know." ”
"Hmph, I know you won't tell me the truth!" Shen Chong pursed his lips and could only give up.
"Okay, now that Ying Rou has recovered from her injuries and practiced the 'Hidden Breath Spell', then the purpose of our trip has been achieved, should we go home next? Or continue to stay here?" Xuan Yun also used the topic to attract Shen Chong's attention at the right time, so as not to entangle him with the identity of himself and Yu Kite.
"Ah, it's only 3 days to complete, didn't you say it would take a month?" Shen Chong was shocked.
Xuan Yun knocked his head angrily: "Stupid, before we came, we didn't know that there would be a cultivator in the middle stage of Ning Dan to send him to death, since Ying Rou recovered from her injuries in advance by refining the Golden Pill and practiced the Hidden Breath Mantra, naturally there is no need to stay any longer." ”
"Lord Yun" At this time, Ying Rou suddenly spoke: "Originally, after my homeland was destroyed, according to the instructions of the classics of the clan, I was going to go to the 'Yellow Spring Realm' through the otherworldly passage of the 'New Birth Realm', but it was only because of the pursuit and killing of the cultivators that I escaped and lost my direction, and was finally rescued by Lord Rain Kite. Now that my injuries have recovered, I plan to find an opportunity to go to the 'Yellow Springs Realm' and join our fox clan seniors. ”
"Huangquan Realm?" Xuan Yun's face changed slightly.
"What's wrong?Yun'er, is the 'Huangquan Realm' the same level of mortal realm space as our 'Freshman Realm'?" Seeing that Xuan Yun, who had always been indifferent, was a little discolored, Shen Chong asked curiously.
Xuan Yun nodded: "Yes, and unlike your 'New Birth Realm' with mortal technology, the mortals of the 'Huangquan Realm' are still in the feudal era of farming and self-sufficiency, and the kingdom is all controlled by cultivators, and it is a mortal space with complex forces." ”
"Little White Fox, where is the otherworldly passage you are talking about?" the rain kite asked Ying Rou directly.
"Lord Huiyu Kite, according to the classics left by the clan, the otherworldly passage is in the old forest of the Senshan Mountains in the southwest of the Huaxia Kingdom, and the humans call it the Panshu Mountain Range. Ying Rou replied.
"Panshu Mountain Range, it's an inaccessible primeval forest, and it's still thousands of kilometers away from here!" Shen Chong said in shock when he remembered the long distance.
"Well, since you already have a plan, let's go back to Jiuyang City together before making plans. Xuan Yun nodded and decided directly.
Xiyuan City, where Bihai Bay is located, is in the northeast of Jiuyang City, nearly 1,000 kilometers away from the Panshu Mountain Range, and is nearly 1,000 kilometers farther than Jiuyang City. After returning to Jiuyang City together, it is also a more reasonable plan to let Ying Rou make plans.
In this way, a few people simply cleaned up and left the villa in a hurry.
As usual, Xuan Yun and the two daughters of Yu Kite hid back in Shen Chong's body again, leaving Ying Rou to accompany Shen Chong to set off.
It was already dark, walking on the uninhabited mountain road, Shen Chong suddenly pointed to a villa under the mountainside in the distance, and said to Xuan Yun: "Yun'er, that house is where I met the essence of things during the day. ”
"It's not good, there are cultivators there!" Xuan Yun's voice was a little hurried.
Although it was far away, Shen Chong looked carefully, and sure enough, he saw a light flickering in the dark villa, and at the same time, he also heard a slight sound of fighting.
"It is estimated that the two essences were discovered by the cultivators!" the rain kite's voice also sounded in Shen Chong's mind.
"What now?" Shen Chong asked Xuanyun's second daughter hesitantly, he really wanted to save the essence in his heart, but he didn't want to put Xuanyun, Yukite and Yingrou in danger because of his indiscriminate behavior.
After a moment of silence, Xuan Yun said: "If the cultivators who fought with the material spirits are the ones who chased and killed Ying Rou, then even if we dodge this time, because our companions were killed, they will still return to Jiuyang City to find us." And if the people who came were not those people at all, the current Ying Rou had already hidden the demonic aura on her body, and Shen Chong, you are also a cultivator, the other party should not rashly make a move on the two of you, and it would be okay to go and take a look. Even if the other party wants to do it then, relying on the two of you plus me and the rain kite, I can teach them a profound lesson. ”
Hearing that Xuan Yun planned to support himself regardless of revealing his identity, Shen Chong's heart was moved, and then he didn't talk nonsense, he moved directly, and the whole person jumped up, swooping from the top of the mountain to the villa on the mountainside like two big birds.
When I got closer, the sound of the fight was much quieter.
Shen Chong's body fell, and after borrowing strength from the branches of a big tree, he jumped directly into the courtyard of that villa.
"What person?" A cold drink sounded, looking at the two people who suddenly appeared, the other party became alert.
With the moonlight in the sky, Shen Chong saw clearly the five cultivators standing in the courtyard, and also saw the true faces of the two essences.
The two spirits are both women, and the weaker one is the gray woman that Shen Chong has seen this afternoon, and her body should be a sculpture of black limestone. In addition, the stronger one is smaller than the sculpture of the limestone, such as the height of ordinary children, and it is a jade sculpture.
Now, the essence of the jade sculpture was surrounded by four cultivators, struggling to stand up, and the essence of the limestone sculpture was directly grabbed by a cultivator and hung in the air.
"Shen Chong be careful, the five people on the other side are all masters, one is in the middle stage of transformation, one is in the early stage of transformation, two are in the late stage of Ning Dan, and one is in the middle stage of Ning Dan!"
"Oops, Chong'er, among these people, there is one person who chased and killed me that day, this person is a master, and he has already cultivated in the early stage of transformation. ”
Almost at the same time, Xuan Yun and Ying Rou both sounded in Shen Chong's ears.
There are five people on the other side, and all of them are masters. On his own side, Shen Chong's Jiucai and Jindan can fight against a late Ning Dan, and Ying Rou can also fight against a late Ning Dan. Although the rain kite is equivalent to the strength of the late stage of transformation, and Xuan Yun is also equivalent to a master in the early stage of transformation, it is inconvenient for both of them to appear, once they appear, they must all kill the enemy, otherwise, once one of them escapes, the spiritual physique of the two of them will attract endless pursuit and killing by cultivators.
Tsk, this time it's troublesome. Shen Chong didn't expect that there were so many people on the other side, and all of them were masters.
Seeing that Shen Chong was silent, among the five people, the mid-stage cultivator who grabbed the head of the object essence asked coldly, "Could it be that this little brother wants to seize the essence of the object that we have worked so hard to grasp?"
"Ah, Uncle Nan, this woman is the white fox we are hunting down! They also have a companion of a young woman, who is very strong, and she killed my beloved disciple with just one move" The cultivator in the early stage of transformation recognized the appearance of Ying Rou and suddenly cried out.
"Oh, Ming Xiu doesn't need to panic, the accomplices of the mere demon beasts are just demon beasts, how strong can they be?" The real person who saw the difficulty said disdainfully, and looked at Shen Chong and Ying Rou at the same time, and his momentum suddenly turned cold: "However, if you dare to kill the disciples of Ming Xiu, you demon cultivators don't seem to take our Taixuanmen in your eyes at all!"
Taixuanmen, the Cultivator Sect of the New Realm - the third-ranked sect among the nine sects and sixteen sects. And this real person who is difficult to see belongs to the generation of the word 'see' who has a higher generation, and the cultivator Ming Xiuzhen who is in the early stage of the transformation belongs to the generation of the word 'Ming', and is the teacher and nephew of the real person who is difficult to see.
Seeing that the real person was arrogant, in his eyes, although the two demon cultivators in front of him did not have demonic energy on their bodies, it should be because they had practiced some hidden magic technique. For the strength of the two of them, he can't be mistaken, one is in the early stage of Ning Dan, and the other is in the late stage of Ning Dan, and he can clean them up by sending one of his disciples at will.
Anyway, he couldn't be good, but Shen Chong put down his burden in his heart, and asked with a sneer: "Taixuanmen? What about Taixuanmen? Could it be that Taixuanmen is very good? You can kill whoever you want?"
Ming Xiuzhen stood up at this time, and said with a righteous face: "Yes! The duty of our cultivators is to eliminate demons and defend the Dao, you demon cultivators are cruel and perverse, everyone will be punished, we will kill or subdue you, that is your honor." Just like these two little goblins, if we don't kill them in time, once they become strong, they will become a disaster for other beings!"
"Hmph, what you say is better than what you sing, but I want to vomit when I hear it! To put on a righteous cloak for your greed, are you Taixuanmen cultivators so shameless?" Shen Chong squinted his eyes, looking down on the other party.
"You... You ......" Ming Xiu Zhenren was so angry that he pointed his finger at Shen Chong, but he couldn't speak.
"Ming Xiu, don't talk nonsense with them, kill them directly for me. Seeing that the real person was finally angry, the dignified cultivator could not argue that a demon cultivator born of a demon beast made him feel very shameless.
"Yes, uncle!" Ming Xiu Zhenren received the order, and immediately came out of the queue and walked towards Shen Chong and the others. The other three people of Taixuanmen still formed an encirclement to prevent the jade spirits who had been seriously injured from escaping.
Shen Chong was wary in his heart, but he said: "Full of killing and killing, moody, I think it is cruel and murderous and perverse, it should be you cultivators." ”
"What a sharp-toothed demon beast, hum let me Ming Xiu Zhenren pull out your fangs and break your claws!" Ming Xiu Zhenren had a gloomy face, and until now, he still thought that Shen Chong's body was a demon beast.
