The barrier that Xiao Mian set up for Leng Mushi was never used. The lightning power contained in the animal bone whip finally exploded on the barrier outside the window.
In addition to blocking the beast bone whip that was attacking Leng Mushi, the barrier also suddenly lit up because of it. Runes traveled across the entire inn, appearing in front of everyone like a guardian golden dragon.
Some onlookers couldn't help but gasp, "This... is such a big deal."
"It should be You Zishu, the chief disciple of Taichu Mountain. When I first entered the sect, my master used him to teach me a lesson all day long..."
Another person took over the conversation, but quickly shut up because You Zishu, who lived downstairs from Leng Mushi, opened the window and looked at the fighting between Bu Jin and Ni Hanyan.
"Hit farther away," You Zishu's dead face was as pale as a hanged ghost in the night and the lightning.
"If you hurt my disciples, I will never let you off."
He is really not reasonable at all, let alone compassionate to women.
Ni Hanyan, who was knocked to the ground by Bu Jin's palm "Setting Sun Shining on Snow", thought that You Zishu's words could ease the situation, but she smiled bitterly after hearing his words. How come the Taichu Sect's people are more difficult to deal with than the Buddhist practitioners!
"I'm sorry, I failed to catch the beast bone whip," Ni Hanyan supported herself with her arms and turned back to You Zishu, apologetically saying, "But Daoist friend, this formation is really powerful..."
You Zishu looked at her coldly without even moving his lips, then looked at Bu Jin, and then closed the window with a "clang".
As he closed the window, the runes on the formation gradually disappeared. However, all the monks who were watching the fun knew that this inn was completely protected by the formation and no one could get involved.
Such a grand scene of protecting the calf, and such an inconsiderate way of dealing with it, people just sighed and did not find it strange.
After all, You Zishu has always been like this and has no idea what flexibility is, otherwise he wouldn't have been nicknamed the living dead.
At this point, Bu Jin and Ni Hanyan naturally could no longer fight.
Bu Jin looked at the new Buddhist disciple who was holding his legs and begging not to be beaten. He lowered his head and silently chanted the Buddha's name, and then said: "The worldly heart is not dead, and the Zen heart is hard to settle. After all, my Zhenwu Temple has no fate with you, so just return to secular life..."
Bu Jin's voice was that of a young man, but when he opened his mouth it inexplicably carried a deep bass, and every word was like the huge bell on the top of a mountain, striking at the little Buddhist's heart.
"No! Brother, Brother..."
He cried and tried to grab the corner of Bu Jin's robe. He clearly grabbed his gauze robe, but for some reason, the corner of the gauze robe that he grasped in his hand turned into runes and quickly slipped away from his palm, as if he could not grasp it.
He knelt there with his clothes in disarray, watching Bu Jin and other disciples return to the inn where they lived. He stood up in a daze, not knowing where to go.
He was fleeing from famine and entered Buddhism by accident. His master said that he had the potential for enlightenment, so he named him Lechen. But now... Buddhism will not accept him, so where can he go
Liaochen looked around and saw the disciples from various sects who were watching the fun. When they saw Bu Jin stop, they all felt bored and closed the windows. Some of them were still pointing fingers at him and talking about something.
He entered Buddhism but could not resist the magic of the Joy Sect. He was so ashamed that he wished he could die on the spot.
He wandered around like a ghost, then saw the lake hidden silently in the night not far away, and slowly walked over.
No one noticed what he was trying to do. Ni Hanyan, who was walking towards the room with his hands covering his wound and holding a beast-bone whip, saw the depressed little Buddhist monk wrapping his waist with the beast-bone whip before he jumped down.
"Why are you doing this?!"
"Let me die, my master doesn't want me, I..." Lechen cried very cowardly, "What am I still alive for..."
"It's not a big deal if the Buddhist sect doesn't accept you," Ni Hanyan chuckled, "If the Buddha doesn't accept you, this world will accept you. Why don't you come to my Huanxi Sect?"
She said indifferently, "Since you can't get rid of your worldly ties, then you can still live well in the world. There are endless ways in this world, and who can say that the Buddhist sect is the only right way? Look at the Shadow Sect that lives next door to the Buddhist sect. They are into murder, but they also have many great talents, right?"
Ni Hanyan said: "What does it matter what the world thinks? If your heart is set on the secular world, how can you stay in Buddhism?"
The magic of the Joy Sect cannot deceive those who have given up all feelings and love.
Liaochen squatted by the lake, looked up at the rising morning light in the sky, and suddenly he had an epiphany.
Yes, look at the people in this world, they are all mean and despicable. Those who do evil may be respected scholars, while those who do good may just be insignificant little people.
The warm morning sun shone on his body. Liaochen sat on the ground in meditation, with Sanskrit sounds rising in his head. He was actually making progress on the spot.
Ni Hanyan's eyes were filled with surprise. When she saw Liaochen start to chant, she felt that he was hopeless. She shook her head and was about to leave. Then she heard him say, "I am joining the Joyful Sect."
So, amid some people's discussions, he followed Ni Hanyan into the Huanxi Sect, and before entering the Demonic Ruins for trial, he changed to a sect that seemed to go against his path.
But he found the way in his heart.
Is it true that one practices Buddhism only when one has let go of worldly ties and cut off human desires
If you have a compassionate heart and do good deeds, what does it matter where you are
The last corner of the morning sun finally rose when Lechen stepped into the inn where the Happy Sect lived. The sky was completely bright, and the monks began to prepare to enter the Demon Clan's ruins.
There are three sects that are bringing in new disciples this time, namely the Huanxi Sect, the Taichu Sect, and the Zhenwu Temple.
There is also Yingzong in the inn not far from Zhenwu Temple.
It’s just that the Shadow Sect is a place for high-level disciples to train. They are different from the other three sects. The Shadow Sect has the most people involved in worldly affairs, even more than the Buddhist Sect, especially many princes and nobles. Therefore, they are the richest among all the sects.
The inn they stayed in was also the best. The high-level disciples of the Shadow Sect had already entered the Demonic Ruins for several days, and only a few were left outside.
The demon clan ruins are very large, and there are countless monsters and beasts inside, including puppet beasts made by various schools and factions. The inside is also separated by formations into different training grounds for high-level, middle-level and low-level disciples.
The Shadow Sect went to the high-level training ground, while Leng Mushi and the new disciples from the other three sects naturally went to the low-level training ground.
After what happened yesterday, the relationship between Huanxi Sect and Zhenwu Temple became even more hostile. The disciples led by Bu Jin saw that Lechen, who could not resist the temptation last night, was actually in the Huanxi Sect's team. They all glared at the Huanxi Sect's disciples.
After what happened last night, Liaochen had finally figured things out. He looked normal again, and his cassock had turned into a red gauze. He was completely blended in among the disciples of the Huanxi Sect. If it weren't for his bald head that was so eye-catching, it could be said that there would be no sense of incongruity between him and the others.
Leng Mushi also thought this matter was quite interesting and couldn't help but look at it several times, but she didn't think there was anything absurd about it.
After all, those who have not experienced the worldly life do not know how many things in this world can make people bow their heads. Circumstances can make people successful or harm them. From the Buddhist sect to the Joyful Sect, it is nothing more than from the Buddhist temple to the worldly life. If one can obtain the great way, it cannot be said which one is good or bad.
She looked at Huanxi Sect again, for something new. Xiao Mian stood beside her, waiting for You Zishu and the other three leaders to start the battle, but he felt very uncomfortable.
Do you really like that kind of weird look
When Xiao Mian saw Leng Mushi staring at the male cultivator from the Huanxi Sect yesterday, he felt as if a jar of old vinegar had been overturned in his heart, choking him and making his nose sore.
But he didn't know that Leng Mushi was looking at the deathly aura on the male cultivator from the Huanxi Sect.
Vitality and death both have colors, even if they are very faint. Leng Mushi could see them shortly after he entered the path of alchemy.
She asked her master and senior brothers, and they could also see it.
People who are full of vitality have rosy faces and their whole bodies are always exceptionally bright; but it is different for those who are surrounded by death. No matter how gorgeously they are decorated, they cannot hide the darkness between their brows and the dark aura lingering around their bodies. For those who are as serious as the male cultivator from the Joyful Sect, they are almost turning into tangible black.
However, life and death are very common, especially in the world of cultivation.
Leng Mushi quickly withdrew his gaze. At this time, the formation had been activated. They entered it one after another. After the formation was closed, the three sects went in three directions respectively without interfering with each other.
After walking for a while, You Zishu stopped and said, "This training is just for you to practice and gain experience. If you are in a situation where you are more than capable of doing so, remember not to intentionally kill."
You Zishu said: "The danger in the low-level formation is not high, but there are demons and beasts living in groups, so it is not advisable to go alone. You can find your own disciples to act together. There are many spiritual plants in this secret realm. If you know them, you can pick them and give them back to Fangcao Palace for them to make medicine."
"If you encounter deadly danger, remember not to fight head-on. Look for an opportunity to escape or team up with others. If you break a small piece of the life-binding belt, you can sense each other. Do you remember that?"
You Zishu finished speaking in a flat voice, and the disciples responded, and then each of them found a disciple they were on good terms with to go out together. Unlike the seasons outside in late autumn and early winter when everything began to wither, it was still midsummer in this ancient land, and everything was lush and green.
Soon after the disciples entered, they began to change their robes because they felt hot, and Leng Mushi was no exception.
She found a cave and changed into cooler clothes. She didn't encounter any dangerous monsters or beasts along the way, but she did find a jerboa that could jump as high as a tree. The demonic energy on its body was comparable to that of the demon spider in Cangshengyuan. It had no medicinal value, so she didn't try to catch it.
After changing his clothes, Xiao Mian stood at the entrance of the cave waiting for Leng Mushi. Leng Mushi squinted at him and said with a smile, "Brother Xiao, you can find something interesting to do by yourself. I think this secret realm is very safe, so there is no need to follow me."
You Zishu didn't know where to go.
Leng Tianyin originally wanted to pull Leng Mushi along, but Leng Mushi would never run around with them. Just now, she saw a few female cultivators chasing a triangular monster. The monster was light green all over, and when it was chased by them, the green color on its body faded and turned white in fear. It was unclear who was defeating whom.
Leng Mushi planned to go to the dense forest not far away to find some spiritual plants that could be used as medicine, and try to refine the elixir that Yuezhong Danxiu could refine after nightfall. They needed to stay in this secret realm for seven days before they could go out, otherwise the formation would not be opened.
□□, perhaps most of the demons and beasts have hidden themselves, and this secret realm is simply like a paradise for them to play in, and the sweet laughter of female cultivators can be heard everywhere.
Leng Mushi shielded her eyes from the sun with her hands. She saw Xiao Mian remained silent and was obviously a little depressed, but he was trying hard to pretend that nothing was wrong and refused to leave her side. She couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Law, when will you teach me to suppress other spiritual roots?" Leng Mushi asked in a low voice as he walked towards the dense forest.
- I will teach you after you finish the story. The law is in her sea of consciousness.
—The cliff is at the end of the dense forest ahead. On the fifth day, it is a good time to jump down.
Leng Mushi said nothing more. She quickened her pace and ran towards the dense forest. After she stopped and looked back, she saw Xiao Mian not far away from her, lowering his eyes and pretending to look at the flowers and plants on the ground.
Leng Mushi tilted her head and looked at him. When Xiao Mian looked up at her, she quickly turned her head and looked down at the ground.
A follower.
Leng Mushi muttered in her heart.
She quickly focused on searching for the spiritual plants in the forest. To be honest, there was nothing special there.
Xiao Mian found two small mushrooms and handed them to Leng Mushi.
Leng Mushi: "... You like mushrooms so much?"
"No..." Xiao Mian didn't look Leng Mushi in the eye. He was probably still thinking about the time he opened the barrier for Leng Mushi this morning, but it didn't work. It seemed like he used an excuse to hug someone. Leng Mushi teased him for this and he was feeling embarrassed.
"This is called Dragon Tendon Mushroom. It has strong vitality and can be stretched to a very long length. You can try..."
After Xiao Mian finished speaking, he looked at Leng Mushi nervously, like a puppy who was racking his brains to find ways to make people happy, rolling over and over, and looking at you with wet eyes.
To be honest, Leng Mushi was holding two mushrooms in her hand, and she felt itchy in her heart and wanted to reach out and scratch them.
Before the window paper was broken, Leng Mushi didn't pay so much attention to it. But now that Xiao Mian suddenly didn't hide it, Leng Mushi couldn't stand it.
She had gotten used to his closeness and care without even realizing it, and now in this situation, she didn't know how to deal with it.
If she threw away the mushrooms, let Xiao Mian go, and never cared about him again, it would be quick and easy... and everything would be back on track.
But why
It would have been fine if she hadn't eaten it, but now that half of it was in her mouth, the law forced her to spit it out.
Leng Mushi pulled the cap of the mushroom in her hand. It was indeed very long and very tough. It did not break even after being pulled several times in her hand.
Xiao Mian stared at her. Leng Mushi thought for a moment and raised her head, looked at Xiao Mian, and said with a smile: "It's really fun."
Xiao Mian breathed a sigh of relief, and the depression around him dissipated a lot. He didn't dare to say or do anything anymore, he just wanted to return to the way he was before.
Xiao Mian couldn't accept being so distant from Leng Mushi. As for what to do in the future... he would think about it after he got out.
He reached out tentatively, trying to pick a small piece of leaf that had been scraped off Leng Mushi's head.
Leng Mushi stood still, staring at Xiao Mian's pursed lips, then lowered her head towards him, "Is there something on my head? Is it a bug?"
"No, it's a piece of broken leaves." Xiao Mian plucked up his courage and tidied her hair.
Seeing that Leng Mushi did not resist, he took a deep breath and smiled slightly where Leng Mushi could not see.
Leng Mushi lowered her head and didn't even look at his expression, but she felt that there was a sweetness emanating from him.
It's just a touch, are you so happy
She was just about to look up to see Xiao Mian's expression when she suddenly heard a burst of bird chirping, and then the bright and sunny day suddenly became covered by darkness.
The "cackle" sounds became more and more sharp and frequent, and the entire sky darkened. Leng Mushi and Xiao Mian looked up at the same time, and saw a group of birds emitting demonic aura flying in the sky.
The flock of birds flowed through the gaps in the woods, with no end in sight. It seemed as if they were still piling up, like the dark clouds that gather in groups before a storm.
"What is this?" Leng Mushi had seen many monsters and beasts, and had also read some in books, but had never seen something like this.
Xiao Mian had never seen it before, so he shook his head and said, "There are too many. Let's find a place to hide first."
As they were talking, countless birds swooped down from the sky and pecked at the two people fiercely.
Fortunately, the tree canopy in the forest was lush and green, blocking a lot of the view. Xiao Mian hurriedly opened the barrier, pressed Leng Mushi's head against his chest, and quickly ran outside with her.
The black masses of demonic birds were like an overwhelming black army, instantly sweeping across all places within sight in the secret realm.
When Leng Mushi was half-carried by Xiao Mian and running towards the cave, she heard a scream and saw a disciple who had been wrapped by the magic bird and was rolling on the ground.
The two of them quickly ran over there, helped drive away the demon bird, and then brought her into the range of the barrier.
The man stood up with a sharp knife in his hand and said thank you to Leng Mushi and Xiao Mian. Leng Mushi saw that her face, body, and even the corners of her eyes were pecked by the sharp beak of the demon bird. The wounds were not big, but they were bleeding, which was quite creepy, just like a blood gourd.
"Sun Wufang?" Leng Mushi recognized her from the knife in her hand and her face which was still easy to identify.
There were more than a hundred disciples who were training together. Leng Mushi stayed indoors all year round and didn't know many of them, but she knew Sun Wufang. When she first became his disciple, she was successful, which made Leng Mushi very envious. Later, when Leng Mushi took the initial test, she was the opponent he drew to fight against, but they didn't fight that time.
Sun Wufang was stunned for a moment, perhaps because she didn't expect Leng Mushi to know her, but she quickly said, "I know where Leng Tianyin and the others are, in the cave not far ahead!"
In the short time it took to speak, countless demon birds had already crashed into their barrier. Fortunately, Xiao Mian had plenty of spiritual power, and the individual attack power of these demon birds was not that strong. So the three of them followed Sun Wufang's instructions and headed towards a cave not far away.
On the way, they met several disciples who were holding up the barrier and gathering towards the cave. Outside, the demon birds were circling and screaming, and their numbers were increasing and dense, reaching the point where they completely covered the sky like night.
Many disciples had gathered in the cave. After Leng Mushi and the others entered, they saw that many people were injured. Sun Wufang's injury was still the least serious.
A barrier was set up at the entrance of the cave, and the magic bird could not rush in for a while.
Leng Mushi finally saw the appearance of the demon bird. It had a beak as sharp as a needle, and its wings were not pure black, but dark blue. It looked like a black bird because it carried demonic energy. Its body was as big as two palms of an adult man, it had a pair of red eyes, and claws as sharp as scimitars.
Everyone in the cave was talking in low voices. Leng Mushi was pulled in by Xiao Mian, and Leng Tianyin rushed over and hugged her. Leng Tianyin hadn't rushed over to hug Leng Mushi for a long time, so Leng Mushi was a little uncomfortable with this sudden move.
"I'm glad you're okay, sister!"
There was a bright red blood mark on Leng Tianyin's white face, which was obviously caused by the demon bird.
After Leng Mushi saw it, she took out a pill from her storage bag and secretly stuffed it into her hand. This thing was the evolved pill of her master's Rejuvenating Pill. Just like the evolved pill of the Rejuvenating Pill was called the Little Rejuvenating Pill, Leng Mushi was too lazy to give it a name, so she just called it the Little Rejuvenating Pill.
But there were not many, only two. Leng Mushi rarely brought this thing with her when she went out. She had to keep one for emergencies, so she could only give one to Leng Tianyin and whispered in her ear: "Eat it when no one is around, it can heal your face."
Hearing this, Leng Tianyin's tears that she had been holding back fell, but she quickly wiped them away. She said "hmm" and let go of Leng Mushi.
Leng Mushi gave the storage bag to Xiao Mian and asked him to distribute hemostatic pills to the injured disciples.
There was constant discussion, and some people complained that this experienced demon bird was a little too ferocious.
The peaceful scene of the picnic was completely broken. This was not surprising, after all, they came here to gain experience. However, this demon bird was definitely not the kind of demon beast that they could fight openly.
After taking the hemostatic pill, the injured disciples recovered a little, and the discussion among the crowd became louder and louder. At this time, a group of people came from outside the barrier. It was You Zishu who opened the barrier and brought them here.
Above their barrier, there were three layers of black magic birds surrounding it. The barrier was under attack and flickered with faint light, just like a pearl wrapped in black silk.
You Zishu held up the barrier, and the barrier of the cave opened. When they came in, countless demon birds flew towards them, and the disciples took out swords and weapons to kill them.
When everyone came in and the cave started to get crowded and filled with the smell of blood, You Zishu closed the barrier and killed the last demon bird that had taken the opportunity to sneak in with his sword energy. He then poured his spiritual power into the Snow Spirit, and the dark cave was lit up with spiritual light.
He said in a breathless voice, "This is a demonized Yin Rhinoceros Bird, with demonic energy in its body. The disciples who were scratched should quickly sit cross-legged and meditate to remove the demonic energy with spiritual power, otherwise the demonic energy will enter the body and damage the meridians."
Not only will the meridians be damaged, but the evil spirit may also infect the body and destroy the spiritual roots.
You Zishu just didn't say the second half because he was afraid of scaring these disciples, and he didn't have time to explain in detail.
But he glanced at all the disciples, pointed at a few high-level disciples, and said, "You guys follow me to search for other disciples!"
Among those who were targeted was Xiao Mian. Leng Mushi looked at the countless Yinxi Demon Birds outside, as well as several disciples in the room who were caught and their flesh and blood were flying all over the place, which was simply a sight to behold, and looked at Xiao Mian worriedly.
Xiao Mian met her expression, not only was he not afraid of the situation outside, but he smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll be back soon."
After a while, You Zishu led his men out again, but this time they came back very quickly. Leng Mushi distributed almost all the medicine in his storage bag to the disciples, and they brought back disciples who were more seriously injured.
Among them are Xiaomei and Fenlian.
After Fen Lian and Leng Mushi signed the master-servant contract, she has been walking among the disciples in the image of a normal person, claiming that she is also from the Second Elders' Council, but she can no longer use her demonic power at will, so she and Xiaomei are very embarrassed.
Leng Mushi quickly distributed medicine to them. You Zishu closed the barrier, then held up the glowing Snow Spirit Sword and looked at the disciples in the cave.
This cave is very large and wide, extending to a very far place, but no one knows exactly how far it is. None of the disciples have entered the innermost part, but it is enough for them to take shelter for now.
"Check the familiar disciples around you to see if there is anyone left out. New disciples should quickly circulate their spiritual power to eliminate the evil spirit left over from being scratched." You Zishu said.
"Something unexpected happened," he paused, and then continued under the gaze of his disciples, "The shadow cultivators at the high-level training ground trapped a five-tailed demon dragon for several days and nights. The demon dragon suddenly advanced and desperately struggled to break free, breaking through the barrier formation and escaping."
"Now there are holes in all the high, medium and low-level formations. The Yinxi Demon Bird is from the mid-level training ground and flew over through the hole."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the disciples gasped.
The author has something to say: Leng Mushi: I don’t care, this cotton field is contracted by me.
Xiao Mianmian: Ji, (makes a sound of agreement.
