Although the continents of the ancient continent are called continents, they are governed by various sects, and there are many small and medium-sized organizations among the continents.

Although there is a harmonious atmosphere on the surface, in fact, there is intrigue and occasional friction between various sects, and in addition, there are many alien existences that are eyeing each other.

The name "Nightmare" only exists in ancient legends.

According to some of the classics of Shushan, the "Nightmare" is a kind of man-devouring monster, they are good at seizing the mind, and after occupying the human body, they rely on their instinct to feed on the source spirits of people or animals.

And in the process, they will drive the human or animal shells to kill all living creatures in their wildness.

The source spirits of those creatures that die as a result will also be absorbed by them into nutrients, and after they are devoured, they will spawn more new nightmares, and continue to find new humans or beasts and devour new hosts.

But not all "nightmares" can be like this, most of the "nightmares" can only live in animals, and only some evolved "nightmares" can occupy the human body and continue to evolve, and the creatures that have been devoured by them will become puppets that they take nutrients, and are called - nightmares.

For them, the more powerful the human body or beast, the more attractable.

Following the major event of recruiting new people in the Boundless School Palace, another earth-shattering event occurred in Yunzhou, which later generations called - Nightmare Disaster.

No one knows where these "nightmares" come from, only that they start from weak creatures, continue to devour and evolve, and continue to derive.

At first, it was found in a few weak poultry, and people thought it was caused by the plague, but it soon spread to weak mortals, especially those who were not strong-minded.

Moreover, the spread speed of the "Nightmare" was extremely fast, and it invaded the entire Yunzhou in just a few days, and even the cultivators were reduced to a lot.

The strange thing is that the "nightmare plague" has risen from all over Yunzhou, from small to large, from mountain villages and towns, all the way crazy erosion to the city.

For a time, the "Nightmare Disaster" caused the entire Yunzhou to fall, and everyone was in danger.

————

As the manager of Yunzhou, the Boundless Academy Palace, after the return of the master of the Nanming Academy, the Great Sage issued an edict, not only urgently activated the contact circle of the Thousand Machines Academy, which was still in the testing stage, but also ordered all the members of the Academy to enter a state of combat readiness.

Everyone panicked and put down what was going on, and when they asked the reason, only one word came from the boundless realm - wait.

The wait didn't last long, in just one day, twelve earth-shattering bells rang from the Boundless Learning Palace, although they didn't understand what was happening, but both the bachelors and the teachers in the Boundless Learning Palace were tense their nerves.

Because the bell of the Boundless School Palace will only ring once a day during the annual recruitment period, the function is only to remind the bachelors who go to the mountain to study that the examiner of the day has reached the limit, or when there is a major event in the Foreign School Palace, it will only ring alone.

And the bell rings, that's another way of saying it.

Three troubles,

Six hits shocked all directions.

Nine Sounds Boundless,

Twelve: Yun Zhou is in danger.

It means that the three rings represent less harm and can only confuse some places, while the six rings represent that the chaos has reached most of the harm.

And Jiu Ming is related to the lifeblood of the Boundless Learning Palace, and the entire Yunzhou of the Twelve Ming is in danger.

The last time the bell rang was hundreds of years ago, when the Boundless School Palace was attacked and almost destroyed, and the bell rang only nine times, and this time the twelve rings made countless people tremble.

Although the Boundless Academy responded in a timely manner, as soon as it received the news, it attached great importance to it, and ordered the cities to be deployed in various places to prohibit the flow of people.

However, he still underestimated the speed of the spread of the "Nightmare", and in just two days, many small cities fell, and mortals and cultivators fled for their lives, and it was gratifying that although everyone panicked, it did not cause too much chaos.

Today's Xuehai gate is closed, and the clouds have long been in chaos.

Countless cloud boats roared over Yundu City, some from other places, and some with materials or bachelors, urgently leaving from Yundu to suppress the Quartet.

The peak of the Boundless Realm is the Boundless Palace, which Li Xuanfeng rarely uses, but today it is a figure longing.

In the main hall, Li Xuanfeng sat on the first seat, frowning tightly.

On the left and right sides of him were Che Xu and Jiu Xuan, and after the wine was Qin Nianfeng, who had been lowering his head, and a middle-aged fat man holding a folding fan and fanning the wind, this person was Qianhao, the master of the Ink Washing Academy.

Sitting directly opposite the two of them were Zhuge Chun, the master of the Thousand Machine Academy, who was over half a hundred years old, and Shang Yu, the master of the Lingqiu Academy, who was quiet.

In addition, there is the couple who have shown their faces in the Endless Realm, as well as several other strange faces.

"Let's talk about the situation!" Li Xuanfeng was the first to break the calm.

"Yes, Great Sage!"

Jiu Xiaowu took the lead and said: "Except for some of the disciples left behind, they have all rushed to all parts of Yunzhou to guard, but they have not yet been effectively controlled!"

After listening to the wine to dispel his sorrows, Li Xuanfeng looked at Che Xu and asked, "How is the back mountain?"

Che Xu got up and said, "Great Sage, the integration of Shushan is complete, and it can be dispatched at any time!"

After Che Xu finished speaking, Zhuge Chun, who had a yellow face beside him, answered.

"Most of the cloud boats of the Thousand Machine Academy have been put into use, in addition to the communication formation made by combining it with the formation of the Ink Washing Academy, we have also researched a spirit weapon that can test whether the human body has been invaded by the nightmare according to the characteristics of the nightmare, and it is on the way to various places. ”

"All the spirit plants that can have a role in the Lingqiu Courtyard have been refined, and the whole courtyard is making pills overnight for backup, but it's just ......"

Shang Yu's face was pale, and his eyebrows were full of tiredness, and he had no quiet appearance in the past, and Li Xuanfeng couldn't bear it anymore, so he asked out loud: "Just what?"

Hearing this, Shang Yu closed his eyes in pain and eased his emotions before saying, "Great Sage Forgiveness!" It's just that so far there has been no medicine that can repair the damage of the source spirit and reverse the nightmare puppet. ”

"Exoneration!"

"Thank you for your compassion!"

Liquor interjected at the right time: "It's no wonder you, it happened suddenly, although there was a warning from Xuan Sheng, but the existence of the nightmare still caught us off guard, and now what we can do is to minimize the damage as much as possible." ”

Saying that, several people in the audience gave her comforting glances, and even Elder Wu, who was dressed in fancy clothes beside her, silently held her jade hand.

"Elder Yan, how is Qingyun Realm?"

Elder Yan in Li Xuanfeng's mouth is the husband of Elder Wu Xiaoxiao, with a righteous face of Chinese characters Yan Jun.

"Great Sage, after the Twelve Ming, all the disciples of Qingyun Realm have received the news, and they have left the customs one after another, please come out of the chaos!"

Hearing Yan Jun's words, Li Xuanfeng felt a sense of relief in his heart, and before he could say anything, he broke into the hall in a panic.

"Great Sage! Great Sage! Something Wrong Happens!"

The person who came was the scholar who served Li Xuanfeng in Qingyun Realm, and after breaking into the hall, he seemed to remember his identity and felt the eyes of the big people in the hall, so he could only kneel by the door and dare not look up.

Seeing this, Jiu Xiaowu got up and walked to his side, a trace of spiritual power input, and said gently: "Tong'er, get up and speak!"

"Thank you, Vice Saint!"

The scholar got up gratefully, and then reported: "The Great Sage ordered me to guard the magic circle, but just now, news came from all sides that the "Nightmare" has evolved rapidly and is becoming stronger and stronger, and some scholars have been infected. ”

"And ......"

"And what?" asked the wine.

The scholar glanced at everyone and said, "And... There seems to be a part of the nightmare...... Evolved his spiritual wisdom and began to attack cultivators in an orderly manner... The cultivation of the first batch of Xuegong disciples is not too high, and they can't resist it, so they can only concentrate in the city to strictly investigate, stick to the city, and have no spare strength to rescue mortals in remote places, and even some people take the opportunity to start inciting people's hearts, and the city is not at peace!"

"What?"

After listening to the scholar, everyone was shocked and got up one after another, although Li Xuanfeng, who was sitting on the high seat, was sitting, there were a few more cracks on the armrests of the seat.

"Tong'er, go back and continue to guard!" Li Xuanfeng ordered.

"Yes!" the scholar left the hall as if he had been granted amnesty.

"Everyone!"

Li Xuanfeng got up and looked at everyone, everyone looked at him as well, and even Qin Nianfeng, who had been bowing his head, raised his head.

"Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are dogs, whether they are mortals or cultivators, every life should be respected. The calamity is beyond our imagination, and the Boundless Academy Palace should not be delayed. Order!"

As soon as Li Xuanfeng's word "order" came out, everyone bowed down one after another.

"Order, Shushan will not move except for the famous brand, and all the bachelors will go out of the mountain and cooperate with the disciples of Xuehai to suppress the evil spirit!"

"Order, Qingyun realm is open, and the elites of the four academies are all out, cooperating with Shushan and Xuehai to help the Quartet. ”

"Order, all factions in Yunzhou, the border city is integrated, strictly investigated, blockaded Yunzhou, and allowed to enter but not leave. ”

"Order, in addition to the reserve to stay, the school palace is all out to organize rescue, no matter how many mortals, they will be brought to me in the city, the city is not enough, so there is a place of refuge outside the city. ”

"The Great Divine Oracle!"

Every time Li Xuanfeng said a ban, everyone would seriously clench their fists and accept the order, even if they didn't have a proper shape to dispel their worries on weekdays.

After Li Xuanfeng finished speaking, one person suddenly stepped forward.

"Great Sage!"

Li Xuanfeng looked at the other party: "Deputy Sage of the car, please speak!"

Che Xu saluted Li Xuanfeng and said: "Although it is my duty to go out of the school palace, it is just that my school palace is mixed, and there are people from other sects, among which there are many people with unhealthy minds, not only are they confused, but they will also take the opportunity to make trouble." And at this time, the school palace is empty, I am afraid that someone will take advantage of the weakness and try to shake the foundation of the school palace. ”

"That's right!"

Jiu Xiao sorrow continued: "And it's not the palace, the same is true of those small factions in Yunzhou, and it is even possible that some family sects will take the opportunity to commit treachery and make ill-gotten gains." ”

"Don't worry about the school palace, with me in the school palace, few people dare to provoke trouble, but the others are indeed a problem. ”

Li Xuanfeng pondered for a moment, and then asked everyone, "How are the other continents reacting at present?"

The wine replied: "There is help and resistance!"

"What do you say?" asked Li Xuanfeng.

"The old lady wants to kill!"

But this time the answer was a voice of gnashing teeth, Qin Yingfeng, who had never spoken, clenched his fists tightly, and his nails had sunk into the flesh.

Jiu Xiao glanced at her and said with a wry smile: "The continents adjacent to my Yunzhou have responded as soon as possible. Among them, the recent Zhongling Continent and Fengzhou's Zhonghuang Dynasty and Linfeng Sword Sect blocked the bordering areas of Yunzhou at the first time, and no Yunzhou people were allowed to enter, and even some people not only expelled the Yunzhou people, but also were very hostile to the people of Yunzhou, believing that the Yunzhou people were the source of the scourge. ”

"The Overlord God Sect doesn't have any attitude, and the Sky Valley will unite with the Academy Palace as soon as possible, as for the Buddha Land, no one knows. ”

"On the contrary, it is the more remote Huazhou, although Yunzhou is also isolated, but Sakurazhuang and Mingxiu Tiangong sent a message that the people of Yunzhou are safe and sound, and the blockade is only to prevent the situation from further expanding. ”

"Not only that, the assistance of Mingxiu Heavenly Palace and Sakura Village has already started, the materials are in charge of Yinghualou, and the border is personally controlled by the princess, and other personnel are on their way. ”

Thinking of the girl in the World Academy, Li Xuanfeng nodded, and then said: "Since this is the case, it is easy to do, in terms of materials, I will ask Yinghualou to be fully responsible, and we will not charge a penny for all operations." ”

"As for those Xiaoxiao, once they find out, they will be killed! Tell the world, whoever dares to have an opinion will say that it was me Li Xuanfeng said, and if you don't accept it, you will hold it back for me, otherwise I don't mind asking for tea in person if he is a monster. ”

There was no killing intent in the hall, but Li Xuanfeng's bland words still sent chills down everyone's spine, he Li Xuanfeng was not like this that time, he was called begging for tea and drinking, but in the end, he had to die, this ancestor really wanted to come to the door to fight without saying a word.

But his words are not unreasonable, after all, how many people have not recovered from the shadows of three hundred years ago, I am afraid that he will go crazy again, at that time, the cultivation was not high, and he was afraid of killing people, and now there are basically no people who can beat him, except for those who are not afraid of death, who would dare to provoke?

Li Xuanfeng didn't know what was in mind, and suddenly asked, "What about the mountain?

......

It seems that someone in the corner has been a little unwilling to be a foil, so Yu Yu replied:

"There is news from the inkstone, saying that he has been running into the depths of the inkstone for half a month, and he can't be contacted, so I don't know what the situation is. ”

"Hey, bastard, come back and teach him a lesson, you deserve to die inside!" Li Dasheng seemed to be a little self-indulgent at this minute, so he spoke in a hooligan style.

"In that case, don't let the inkstone know about the outside for now! After all, I just threw those three guys in. ”

"That's right, the deputy saint of wine, I have to bother you to go to Huazhou, it's close to the Middle Dynasty, my nephew who has no lower limit doesn't know if he will get any moths, you go and watch and don't let people have any accidents all the way away." ”

"Uh...... "The Great Holy Oracle!" is a little speechless when he dispels his sorrows, this uncle doesn't look at him as usually gentle, and when he loses his temper, except for the one who peeps into Tiangu, he doesn't have a good word for anyone, although everyone is used to it.

"It's okay, then hurry up and get down to business!"

"The Great Divine Oracle!"

......

Everyone left, and in the blink of an eye, there was only one woman left in the Boundless Palace.

"Oh, are you still there?" The lonely man and widow, Li Dasheng, who had just released himself, pretended to be surprised, which made him a little at a loss.

"I haven't seen you for decades, are you going to drive me away when you see me once?"

"Uh...... Of course not, of course not, don't get me wrong. ”

Seeing that Qin Yingfeng looked like he was about to run away again, Li Dasheng hurriedly explained, looking like a good baby.

"Although the Yun family girl has good qualifications, why does the teacher have to let you keep her in the hospital?"

"How do I know, you asked him to go yourself. ”

"Okay!" Ignoring the emotions in Qin Yingfeng's words, Li Xuanfeng just said silently in his heart, "Yun family!"

"How's your poison?" Qin Yingfeng's words suddenly softened.

"It's all right!"

"The old man says your poison is a nuisance!"

Listening to Qin Yingfeng's gentle and fierce tone in seconds, Li Xuanfeng really wanted to cry without tears.

"My dear teacher, you old man can't talk less, and he's going to mess with me!!"

————

Naturally, his teacher didn't know this, and even if he could, he wouldn't think about such trivial matters.

There is Tianluo City in Yunzhou, which is Yun Ying's hometown, and there is a lake in the north of Tianluo City, called Yunhu.

And the teacher in Li Xuanfeng's mouth, that is, Xuanyi, did not go back to Tiangu after warning the Boundless Academy, nor did he continue to travel in all directions, but came to Yunhu.

The blind Xuanyi sat on the ridge and looked at him quietly.

In front of him, an old man, who also looked to be in his prime, was driving the oxen, holding the plow and ploughing the ground seriously, and nothing had changed because of his arrival.

The old ox walked to the edge of the field, turned around wisely, and turned back on the spot with the ox rope, and the old man also took the plow out of the mud, and inserted the coulter into the ground in a different direction.

Xuanyi looked at it quietly, and said to himself: "Life is easy to grow old, and it is difficult to grow old. We are all dying people, and we don't know how many Chongyang there are. ”

"It's your business to die how you love, and I'm not going to die. "The sound is very flat, like the moon and winter snow at some times.

"That's right!"

Xuan Yi laughed at himself and said: "In our generation, some people are no longer alive, and there are only a few who can be considered alive, and the most alive person among us is you." ”

"How is she?" asked Xuanyi, seemingly casually.

"It's still the same!" replied the old man after the scalper.

"Yunzhou is in chaos, they are here!"

"I know, it's not about me!"

"I left that girl in the school palace, you won't blame me, right?"

"It's not your turn to worry about the young man's affairs, you want to drag me into the water, aren't you afraid that I will kill your apprentice?"

Xuan Yi sighed when he heard this, and continued: "If you are willing to go, you can go, anyway, it is also your place!"

The afternoon sun was so hot that the sun dried up, so the old man stopped drinking, put down the plowshare, and walked to the ridge to pick up the teapot.

"How many years have passed, I heard that your ink pen was restarted and you painted a picture of the spring color of Yunhu, I really want to be able to take a look. ”

The old man lowered his head while pouring water, and said, "He came here in those years and helped me herd the cattle for a few months, and I asked him, what is love?"

Xuanyi took a sip of the water and looked at the old man looking forward to the following.

The old man himself poured a bowl and said to his lips, and continued: "He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, and smiled very happily, he only said four words, and my heart was happy!"

"Hehe, what a good one for my heart. Xuan Yi also smiled, smiling happily, like a teenager herding cattle in those years.

Ignoring Xuanyi, the old man's thoughts wandered and said, "I also think it's interesting, so I painted a picture of the spring color of Yunhu Lake for him." ”

"What a blessing!" Xuan Yi sighed, not knowing if he was talking about the old man or the "he" in their mouths, or both.

"Yes!" the old man sighed as well.

Then he looked at Xuanyi again: "Don't run around when you're old, it's not easy to live!"

"I can't be idle, like you can't live here, I like to walk around, but don't worry, I should live for a few more years!"

......

As soon as Xuan left, the old man set up the plow again, and drove the old oxen to continue plowing the land, although it was spring, but the cloud lake not far away was a ruined and bleak scene.

"The annual autumn wind is strong, not like spring.

It is better than spring, and the sky is frosty. ”

Cloud Lake, how many years has there been no spring?
