"Go away!"

Zheng Zhenzhen opened the door, saw a familiar face, and immediately closed the door again. en8.

"Fellow Daoist, Friend Daoist? Open the door!" Han Linlin kept knocking on the door.

Hanlai City has a quiet room specially designed for monks to heal their wounds, which is built in the underground palace directly below Hanlai City. There are very few things that can be used as hard currency in the monastic world, and monastics often go into seclusion for who knows how many years have passed, and they don’t know what the currency will look like when they come out. Therefore, Hanlai City maintains a place where most of the monastics live together. The habit of bartering. At the beginning, Zheng Zhenzhen was a little worried that the penniless ones would not be kicked out. Unexpectedly, Yun Qing found such a place in a blink of an eye.

The underground palace is winding and secluded, so big that you can't see the edge. It would be no problem to fit all the cultivators in Hanlai City into it. This quiet room is located in the upper level of the underground palace, so there is no need for anything in exchange. If a casual cultivator is injured, he can move in by himself, and then he can pack up and leave after the injury is healed. Based on this alone, Zheng Zhenzhen felt that the Lord of Hanlai City must be a person who enjoys doing good deeds.

Different from the human world, the people in Hanlai City are all Taoists, so the scenery is quite magical and bizarre. If it were normal times, Zheng Zhenzhen would definitely be willing to have a good time, but now he does not have such free time. She has been searching the streets for the past few days for flesh and blood flowers and other materials that Yun Qing needs. When she comes back, she uses the medical energy to warm Yun Qing up. She is so busy every day.

Zheng Zhenzhen couldn't help but feel nervous when she heard the guy banging on the stone door, and opened the door angrily: "We have someone resting here! Why are you knocking!?"

Han Linlin looked upright: "If you need any help, fellow Taoist, just tell me!"

Zheng Zhenzhen was not very happy to have a relationship with this man, but he was really clingy and would stand at the door every day, even if she didn't want to see him.

"I just need you to keep quiet and go far away." Zheng Zhenzhen said helplessly.

"..." Han Linlin looked at her aggrievedly for a while, "Are you staying here to recuperate from your injuries?"

"Asking knowingly." Zheng Zhenzhen wanted to close the door, but was stopped by this guy.

"Do you need any medicinal materials? Just ask and I will bring them to you!" Han Linlin was just about to write "People are stupid and have too much money" on his face. He said to Zheng Zhenzhen without hesitation, "Fellow Taoist Don’t be polite!”

"Fish of flesh and blood. en8." The person who answered was not Zheng Zhenzhen, but Yun Qing who came out of the quiet room after hearing the noise.

"No problem, I'll take care of it... Wait, why is it you!?" Han Linlin had always had a bad impression of Yun Qing, and most of his face turned dark when he saw her coming out.

"Flowers of flesh and blood, medicine cauldron, jade slips for making talismans and some five-color stones." Yun Qing explained everything in one breath.

"Yes, that's right! That's it." Zheng Zhenzhen said quickly, peeking at Yun Qing nervously, and then breathed a sigh of relief after finding that her expression was calm.

Han Linlin looked at Zheng Zhenzhen, gritted his teeth and said, "There's nothing else... What do you want the five-color stone for?"

"Mending the sky?" Yun Qing told a cold joke that the other two people couldn't follow.

Classical books once recorded that "Nu Wa refined five-color stones to mend the sky." However, the five-color stones understood by the cultivation world today are far from the five-color stones that Nuwa used to mend the sky in myths and legends. You must know that the pure ones rise to the sky, and the turbid ones sink to the earth. Things in the sky are originally formless and colorless, how can they be supplemented with stones

The tangible heaven is called celestial phenomena, and the invisible heaven is called heavenly way.

What is mentioned in the myth can only be called "celestial phenomenon" at best, but the five-color stone mentioned in the world of cultivation today is used to reach heaven and realize perfection. You can imagine how rare it is.

"If you are in urgent need, there is nothing you can do..." Han Linlin looked at Zheng Zhenzhen a few more times, smiled at the beauty, and racked his brains to think of a way.

"Tell me about it," Yun Qing said.

"Why don't you invite me in to sit down!?" Han Linlin was made angry by her attitude.

"Please come in." Yun Qing stepped aside and made an invitation gesture. Zheng Zhenzhen rushed in and cleaned up her clothes before pouring tea for Han Linlin.

Han Linlin was obviously a young talent who was used to things going well, and he didn't have bad intentions. When he saw Zheng Zhenzhen pouring tea for him, he immediately smiled again.

"There is a large movement formation nearby. The base is a five-color stone. Although it was destroyed, there are some remnants." Han Linlin took a big sip of tea before slowly telling the news.

Yun Qing thought to herself, isn't this nonsense? She just wanted to find five-color stones to replenish the large moving formation. Now she had to demolish the east wall to repair the west wall

"Great Movement Formation?" Yun Qing endured the word "see off" and asked casually.

"Well, this thing can be used to cross the strong wind and waves and travel to other continents. It has been destroyed now. I don't know the details." Han Linlin is quite sincere. After all, the Battle of Heaven has been too long. , not many young people of this generation know about Nanfeng Continent.

"How much damage was done?" Yun Qing asked. Zheng Zhenzhen saw that she was ready to have a long conversation, so he immediately refilled Han Linlin's cup of hot tea.

Han Linlin stared at Zheng Zhenzhen and couldn't move his eyes away. He took a sip of tea and replied: "I haven't seen it, but I advise you not to have the idea of that thing. It was originally a sacred object, but now it has been destroyed, it is somewhat unsafe. .”

"Oh, besides the Great Movement Formation, are there anywhere else with five-color stones?" Yun Qing asked.

"Well, there is an ancient battlefield in the area of the Great Movement Formation. There should be remnants of it..." Han Linlin was not sure about this. He frowned and said, "The sword energy and violent energy are mixed there, and there is almost no spiritual energy. There are many dangers and there are few people around, so most of the time the city lord’s palace sends people to block it.”

I guess it was the ancient battlefield of the Battle of Heaven. Mo Ling's sword energy was mixed with the violent energy of those who died in the battle, which was indeed not suitable for practice. But this kind of evil place is quite suitable for refining evil weapons or condensing evil energy. It's just that Yun Qing now has no weapons and no skills that require condensing evil energy, so that place is not of much value to her.

"Thank you." Yun Qing thanked him, but Han Linlin couldn't hear any thanks.

"If there is any news about the ancient battlefield in the near future, I will definitely tell you. I will also send the medicinal materials right away." Han Linlin stood up and walked out while looking at Zheng Zhenzhen longingly.

Zheng Zhenzhen reluctantly smiled at him, and then closed the door with a bang.

Han Linlin was extremely efficient at work. The next day he brought a bunch of medicinal materials, jade talismans, and a large cauldron, along with a piece of fresh and big news.

"The city leader will leave the city in seven days to fight!"

Yun Qing nodded: "Then?"

"Why don't you understand? Where else can be used as a battlefield near Hanlai City besides the large moving formation?" Han Linlin said excitedly

The Great Movement Formation is an ancient battlefield. Countless outstanding disciples of the human and immortal ways died there thousands of years ago. It has a somewhat special meaning in this place than the Dou Shou.

"Who invited the city lord to fight?" Yun Qing felt that there might be some secret behind this news.

"I don't know." Han Linlin's excitement continued, "But I believe the city lord will not lose!"

Zheng Zhenzhen said suspiciously: "You don't even know who the person who invited the fight is, so why do you assert that he won't lose?"

"The city lord will definitely not lose, he is the direct descendant of Mo Ling!" Han Linlin said firmly.

This statement is still reliable among casual cultivators, and the direct descendants of the Holy Land are almost unrivaled among their peers. But it’s still unclear whether the city lord is a disciple of Mo Ling, and what if the person making the fight is also a disciple of the Holy Land

"Can I go to watch the ceremony?" Yun Qing asked.

"Of course, I only found out about this when I saw the City Lord's Mansion starting to prepare for the construction of the viewing platform!" Han Linlin said, "At that time, the ancient battlefield area that has always been closed will be opened to allow casual cultivators to observe the battle and gain enlightenment. "

People with little understanding can watch the martial arts battles between advanced practitioners just like ordinary people watching a play, just watching the excitement, but cultivators with a clear state of mind can observe the law and understand the Tao, and find out the mystery from the moves of the two people competing. , understand a more profound truth.

"We can go together then." Han Linlin saw that Yun Qing seemed to be a little moved, so he immediately said. He has come here frequently to harass her in the past few days, and he also knows that Zheng Zhenzhen basically never leaves Yun Qing. As long as Yun Qing goes, Zheng Zhenzhen will definitely follow.

Yun Qing smiled and said nothing more.

She felt that although the Great Teleportation Formation was destroyed, it was impossible for the five-color stones to disappear out of thin air. Presumably some of them could still be recovered from the ancient battlefield. This time, it would be a good idea to explore the reality of the Great Teleportation Formation while observing the Dharma. She can recover her body to the fullest within seven days. By then, she may be able to complete the Dharma and enlightenment, collect five-color stones, and explore the moving formation in one go, but more detailed planning will be needed in the process.

Yun Qing thought of this and suddenly said to Han Linlin: "What is your relationship with the city lord?"

"...Huh?" Han Linlin was stunned, and then said in a sullen tone, "That's my dad."
