The dust was flying, and the sound of wailing.
Looking at the two people who were rolling on the ground, Konghou silently stretched out his hand and pulled his sleeves to stop him in front of Huan Zong. There is so much dust, how can I eat the golden fruit if I accidentally smudge it
"Young Master." Lin Hu jumped off his shoulders and raised his chin towards the two lying on the ground, "Apart from these two people, there is no one else nearby."
The loose cultivators have already recognized the identities of these two people, they are both nominal members of the loose cultivator alliance, but neither of them are master swordsmen.
"Fellow Daoist, these two are members of my Sanctuary Alliance, but neither of them are sword cultivators. How..." The Sanctuary Alliance elder said euphemistically, "Could it be that the murderer has escaped?"
"Perhaps those two fellow Daoists are indeed like that, but I'm afraid these two are not from your loose cultivation alliance." Lin Hu gathered his spiritual energy in the palm of his hand and slapped the two on the ground. The two rolled on the ground in pain, screaming in agony. continuously. A few people from the Sanctuary Alliance saw this scene and took a few steps back in fright.
Soon they discovered that the bodies of the two people who were rolling on the ground had changed, their bones contracted or expanded, and even their faces had changed.
"They... used the magic water?" The elders of the Sanxiu Alliance turned pale, wishing they could slap the two to death.
The name of the magic water is common, but it is very complicated to make. Needless to say, the medicines needed are expensive, and even if they are refined a hundred times, they may not be able to succeed once. There are very few pharmacists who can refine this kind of magic water. More importantly, even if the refining is successful, if you want to turn into a certain person without being seen, you must drink the blood of that person.
Therefore, this kind of medicine is a contraband in Lingyou Realm, but all conscience pharmacists are very resistant to this kind of medicine. The major sects have made concerted efforts to manage the cultivation world well. This drug has almost disappeared. Many monks of the younger generation do not even know that there is such a drug in the cultivation world.
But now this kind of medicine has appeared, and it has also mixed into their righteous cultivators, killing the righteous cultivators and planting them on others. If these two people are not found, how many things will happen in the future
After the disguise was torn apart, the two who had practiced evil arts were completely unable to conceal their evil spirits.
"Xie Xiu!" the young monk said, "It's these bastards again!" Under their noses, how dare the evil Xiu be so rampant
Seeing that they had been exposed, the two evil cultivators begged for mercy. Who says that people who practice are not afraid of death, people who practice are actually more afraid of death than ordinary people, they want to gain powerful strength and want to gain longevity. At the moment of death, there are more fears to overcome. Therefore, cultivating the mind is also cultivating.
"You killed the three fellow Daoists of the Loose Cultivation Alliance, and you still have the face to beg for mercy?" Konghou put down his sleeves and looked at these evil cultivators who were full of fear and begging for mercy. , why didn't you think that life is precious
"In the eyes of these people, other than their own interests, the life and death of others have nothing to do with him. If not, how could he join the evil cultivators?" After saying a few words, "These people want to be happy for a while and cause countless people, and they can't have a good end in the end."
In the nearly five thousand years of Lingyoujie's ascension records, no one was born in evil cultivators, which is enough to prove that the Tao of Heaven cannot tolerate such people.
People with a bottom line, even if they are greedy for pleasure, know what to do and what not to do. People who indulge in all kinds of indulgences, after being happy for a while, will be dead at the same time in body and soul, and there will be no afterlife.
"Elder, how do you think we should deal with these two?" Lin Hu turned to look at the elders of the Sanctuary Alliance.
"Killing to pay for your life." The elder of the Sanxiu Alliance had a gloomy face, wishing to kill the two on the spot, but he still retained a bit of reason, "If you explain what happened, I can spare your life."
"Thank you, elder." The evil cultivators are people who can abandon everything for the sake of profit. They have no loyalty at all. Now that they hear that they can save their lives, they will tell the truth now.
The sudden death of Venerable Wuku in the evil cultivator made Venerable Hei, the brother of Venerable Wuku, furious and vowed to unite the demon world. So he asked the Demon Venerable to fight. The Demon Venerable sent them to sneak into the Sanctuary Alliance, and took advantage of this opportunity to cause a conflict between the Sanctuary Alliance and the sect. After these cultivators of the righteous path have been inflicted, they will attack them again.
"It's false that he wants to avenge his brother, and it's true that he wants to trouble the cultivation world." Konghou sneered, "You evil cultivators do bad things, and you have to wear a righteous skin?"
The two arrogant evil cultivators did not dare to speak, and lowered their heads to think of ways to save their lives.
"In the eyes of your evil cultivators, are our righteous cultivators too stupid?" Konghou tapped one of the evil cultivators on the shoulder with his scabbard.
Xie Xiu shook his head frantically, even if it was really useful, they wouldn't dare to say it.
After the question, Konghou took two steps back, and the sword light flashed in Lin Hu's hand, directly piercing the spiritual platform of the two monks.
"You, you..." Xie Xiu, who still had a trace of breath, was full of blood, staring at Lin Hu with a dead eye.
"This elder promised that he would let you go, but the rest of us didn't agree." Lin Hu put his sword into the sheath, and the two of them had lost many lives. Are innocent people dying in vain
Looking at Lin Hu's neat swordsmanship, the loose cultivators looked a little dazed. It seemed that there was only a flash of light just now, why are both of them dead
"Let's go." Lin Hu said, "In front of you is the formation of the secret realm."
When the evil cultivator murdered, the spirits of the loose cultivators were not very good. They stopped and walked along the way, and the spiritual herbs and elixir collected could not comfort their souls.
Five days later, they finally arrived at the center of the formation when the formation was changing from time to time. There is a huge and luxurious palace at the center of the formation. Outside the palace, there are many monks sitting cross-legged. These monks include sect disciples and loose cultivators. Seeing them rush over, their eyes light up.
"Come on, they're finally here."
"You have finally arrived, why have you gone so long?"
Facing the enthusiastic attitude of these people, Konghou took a step back and hid behind Huan Zong. With such a good attitude, there must be a problem.
"Elder, you have come, the door of this palace can't be opened all the time, and a strange person even came out and said that the most important thing for people is to be neat and tidy, and the palace won't open before other people come over. "A Loose Cultivator rushed in front of the Elder of the Loose Cultivation Alliance, "We've been waiting here for almost ten days, are you lost?"
The expression of the elders of the Sanctuary Alliance became a little weird: "Did you encounter anything else along the way?"
"What's the matter?" Loose cultivator was at a loss, "Isn't it necessary to come here to have a test?" He looked at the crowd and clapped his hands in annoyance, "Oops, there's one more left?"
"What, there's still one more?" The cultivators who were still cheering just now, suddenly lost their joy, "Why is there still one more?"
"Friend Wang Jia is not here." Sanxiu said, "He's not here either, how do we get in?"
Loose cultivators and sect disciples gathered together, talking at a high pace, and it was already unclear whether they were loose cultivators or sect disciples. Jin Ling even saw Senior Brother Zhou Xiao and a loose cultivator sitting in the corner chatting and laughing, not at all like his usual dull appearance.
Just as everyone sighed, thinking that they would have to wait for several more days, the gate of the palace slowly opened, and a man dressed in black and wearing a mask came out and stood on the steps watching everyone.
The mask on his face is very strange, a piece of white, without any pattern, looking cold and emotionless.
"Everyone has arrived, you can go in." The masked man's eyes turned to the direction of Huan Zong and others, and disappeared into smoke.
"Isn't there anyone who hasn't come yet?"
"Is your memory wrong?"
"let's go."
They came in from the entrance of the secret realm and walked here along the main road unimpeded, so in their imaginations, this palace was the place to test them, and there was no other danger.
Konghou thought this was a bit strange. Why didn't most of the cultivators encounter strange things, and only a few of them were not peaceful along the way
"Let's go." Huan Zong took Konghou's hand, followed behind the crowd, and walked into the palace gate. As soon as she entered the gate, Konghou felt a very strange force controlling her body, causing her to let go of Huan Zong's hand unconsciously.
"Huanzong?" Konghou looked back and saw that there were no other people around. The spacious open space was paved with white marble. There were three white jade arch bridges in front of them. There was a faint dragon energy on the bridges. "Ask the Heart Bridge" and "Ask the Bridge" three names.
Behind the white jade arch bridge is a majestic palace, and there are bursts of immortal music from the palace, which is very much like the heavenly palace that the monks yearn for.
"There is a way in my heart that I can become an immortal. It is better to ask me about the three bridges." Before Konghou got on the bridge, she took out her flying sword and leaped over the moat. When she flew over, she was not hindered by anything. Looking back at the three bridges, there was nothing there. If the cultivator really stepped on it, she would only fall into the river.
"There is no way in my heart. When I enter here, I have to ask the monks from the three bridges, and I am not worthy of entering this palace." A mysterious man wearing a white mask appeared. He was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and his voice Nothingness, neither male nor female.
Konghou stopped and turned to look at the mysterious man: "Are you the spirit of the secret realm?"
"You can call me that." The Spirit of Secret Realm took a step back and waved the door of the Golden Temple to open, "But even if you take the initiative to talk to me, I won't give you any extra benefits."
"I'm not asking you for favors, I'm thanking you for the swordsmanship you gave me." Konghou said solemnly, "Don't worry, after I go out, I will definitely let Huanzong and Senior Brother Wuchuan use this swordsmanship. prosper."
"Five hundred years ago, this sword manual was sent out once." The spirit of the secret realm was wearing a mask, Konghou couldn't see his expression, and couldn't hear any emotions from his flat tone.
But this sentence was enough to shock her. Five hundred years ago, the sword manual was sent out once, but Ling Youjie did not hear the slightest rumor. Is it because the person who got the sword manual didn't speak up, or did something happen and he couldn't speak out
"The swordsmanship of heaven and earth is very precious. If you get this swordsmanship, you will definitely be famous in the whole world. Asking immortality is just around the corner. Are you really not interested?"
"Of course I do." Kong Hou said confidently, "But I'm Yin Xiu."
Spirit of Secret Realm: "… "
"Don't worry, when Huan Zong and Senior Brother Wuchuan have learned about the swordsmanship of heaven and earth and mastered the practice tricks, we will print the book and let the cultivators study hard, absolutely slack."
Spirit of Secret Realm: "… "
Such a precious swordsmanship, printed and distributed in a book
"Can I go in?" Kong Hou pointed to the door and smiled at the spirit of the secret realm, "Why don't you tell me first, is there any danger in it?"
"I can't die." The Spirit of Secret Realm picked her up and threw her in.
Konghou adjusted a posture in the air and mobilized the spiritual energy in his body, so that he did not let himself fall down. She looked up at the main hall, where there was nothing but a bookcase.
She walked over to the desk, with a copy of the Heart Sutra on it, and on a yellowed piece of paper beside it was written "Copy it a hundred times before leaving."
Seeing this line of words, Konghou remembered the days when he was deliberately made trouble by the lady in the Jinghong Emperor's harem when he was a child and punished her for copying books.
"It's simply inhuman." Konghou sat down cross-legged, took out a roll of paper, and carefully copied the four words of the Heart Sutra, the secret method.
An hour later, Konghou put down his pen and tapped on the desk: "I'm done copying, let me out."
The Spirit of the Secret Realm appeared, and he looked at Konghou suspiciously: "So soon?"
"Well..." Konghou handed him a stack of paper, "I used several fonts to copy, what do you think?"
The Spirit of the Secret Realm took a look, and there were no other words except the four words of the Heart Sutra: "I asked you to copy the content of the Heart Sutra, not the name."
"That can't be done. There are so many words in the Heart Sutra. Even if I copy the secret realm and close it, I can't finish it." Konghou laughed, "For the sake of seeing how many times we have a relationship, you shouldn't be so serious."
"If you can't complete the test, naturally you can only stay here." The spirit of the secret realm put down the paper and said slowly, "In the secret realm, don't talk about feelings, and do things according to the rules."
Kong Hou rolled his eyes in his heart and said that he was doing things according to the rules. In today's world, even the spirit of the secret realm has learned to bully the soft and be afraid of the hard, so she must redouble her efforts to cultivate.
"Can't you change the conditions?"
"It can be changed." The Spirit of the Secret Realm hesitated for a moment, "Tell me what kind of test is more useful for monks, and I will let you out."
Konghou picked up the secret method of the Heart Sutra and slowly turned it over. Hearing the words of the spirit of the secret realm, he threw the book on the table and his eyes lit up: "Can you promise not to hurt their lives?"
"Why do you want to take their lives?" The spirit of the secret realm was puzzled, "When the master ascended, he left a trail of consciousness, hoping that more monks would ascend to immortality, it is useless to take their lives, the corpses will be lost in the secret realm. polluted environment."
Konghou: "…"
It's still a very secretive place.
"I will screen the monks who enter the secret realm, not all of them can be tested." The spirit of the secret realm said, "You monks, one year is not as good as one year, and half of the monks in the first five hundred years have the opportunity to be tested. Not even half of this batch."
Only then did Konghou understand that the Illusory Demons, Succubus, and strange courtyards they had encountered before were all small stoves opened in the secret realm.
"I have a lot of ways to test the monks without hurting them. Come and come, we can communicate slowly." Konghou came to the spirit and told countless new methods to the spirit of the secret realm. In terms of the means of tossing people, these monks in Lingyoujie are simply paediatrics, and they are not as good as the methods of their mortal realm.
Many methods that cannot be achieved in the mortal world can be perfected in the Lingyou world.
"How can the physical shock be compared to the mental torture? Imitation of human beings with Illusory Demons is easy to be dismantled, so it is better to let people be in the scene. The way of dreaming in the courtyard is too simple, a monk with a slightly firmer heart. If you want people to devote themselves to the test wholeheartedly, you must make them believe that the self in the illusion is real, such as this..."
Konghou communicated with the spirit of the secret realm for a long time. After the spirit of the secret realm recorded all the suggestions made by Konghou on the jade slip, he asked: "You are not afraid of the monks in five hundred years. After knowing this, I will give you a curse spell. ?"
"I can't, I'm doing this for their own good." Konghou turned his head with an innocent expression on his face, "Moreover, as long as you don't tell me, they won't know that it was my idea, right?"
The Spirit of the Secret Realm looked at her quietly, and after a long time said, "I understand." As the Spirit of the Secret Realm without gender, he decided to transform himself into a male. According to human monks, opposites attract, and after he becomes a man, these women should show some affection towards him.
"Then are you going to let me go?"
"Memorize this Heart Sutra and you can go out." The Spirit of Secret Realm put the Secret Heart Sutra back into Konghou's hands and disappeared before her eyes.
"As the secret realm left by the immortal, it has to go back on its word, and the trust between people and the secret realm is gone." Konghou whispered and sat back, flipping through the happy scriptures and slowly read it.
"First there is heaven and earth, water and all things, clear air and remove turbidity..."
The spirit of the secret realm left Konghou's postgraduate entrance examination room, held the jade slip for a while, and walked in another direction. At least try it out to see if this advice works.
When Huan Zong and Konghou left the secret realm and were about to continue their journey, Konghou received the Feixun Talisman from Yunhuamen, and Yunhuamen summoned her to return to the sect immediately.
"Huan Zong, I'll go back when I go. Next year's Zongmen Exchange Conference, don't forget to take me to have a good time in Peicheng." Konghou jumped on Feijian, and he didn't forget to make an appointment with him about the next meeting.
Looking at the smiling girl, Huan Zong nodded: "Okay."
But until the girl left, he still stood there, not moving.
In the second year of the sect exchange conference, the disciples of the various sects arrived one after another. He waited for a long time, and finally got the news of the arrival of the Yunhuamen disciples, but there was no Konghou in it. When he arrived at Yunhuamen, he learned the news of her retreat.
In the third year, Konghou did not leave the customs.
In the fifth year, Konghou still did not leave the customs.
In the tenth year, Konghou finally got out of the customs, and his cultivation base had been promoted to Jindan stage. He asked Lin Hu to send him a congratulatory gift. Three days later, he received a letter of thanks and gratitude from Konghou. On the letter, Konghou's tone was distant and polite.
Fifty years later, he heard someone say that Fairy Konghou of Yunhuamen was going to the mortal world in order to break through her inner demons. When he arrived at the intersection of Lingyou Realm and Mortal Realm, he saw Konghou dressed up, and Konghou also saw him.
"Real man." She smiled at him, bowed respectfully, and snow fell all over her head.
"Take care all the way." Huan Zong's heart was filled with pain, and Xueluo entered his heart.
For another fifty years, he retreated to suppress the unstable Lingtai, and when he heard the good news of Konghou breaking through the Nascent Soul, many people said that she was the most talented cultivator in the world of self-cultivation.
He still prepared a generous gift and asked Lin Hu to send it. Five days later, he received a gift in return, but no letter.
After another hundred years, he was still unable to break through the distraction period and enter the Void Transformation Realm, and received an invitation from Yunhuamen.
Yunhuamen Konghou Fairy was promoted to the out-of-body stage. To congratulate her, Yunhuamen held a promotion ceremony for her, and he was also one of the invitees.
"Young Master, can you go?" Lin Hu asked.
Huan Zong rubbed the dark pattern on the invitation, thinking of the girl with a frown and a smile, lying on the wall and waving at him. Hundreds of years later, this memory is still as bright as yesterday.
"No." He slowly put down the invitation, closed his eyes and said, "No need to go."
Another hundred years later, his blue silk turned white, and the glazed light sect floated a heavy snow with goose feathers.
A young disciple walked by, talking about the double cultivation ceremony.
"Who wants to hold a double cultivation ceremony?" He stopped and looked at the newly entered disciples who were still irritable.
When several disciples saw him, their faces showed a look of awe: "Uncle Hui is the ancestor of Konghou of Yunhuamen."
He stared blankly at the disciples: "Konghou... Does she want to practice double cultivation with others?"
The disciples didn't understand why Shizuzu was suddenly so lost, and secretly took two steps back: "Master Shizu, what's wrong with you?"
That girl with a lively smile who would secretly tug at his sleeve, saying that Huan Zong knew everything, is going to be with other people
Covering the stuffy and painful chest, Huan Zong spat out a few mouthfuls of blood.
"Uncle Shi, what's the matter with you, go and invite Old Ancestor Lin to come."
Yeah, what happened to him
Huan Zong looked around at a loss, Kong Hou said, when he is not feeling well, he can try to act coquettish to others. Who can he act coquettishly to
"I... I..." He opened his mouth, looking at the eager little disciples in front of him, the pain in his heart became stronger and stronger.
What is wrong with me
"Cough, cough, cough." Huan Zong opened his eyes, his face was pale, and blood spit out from his mouth. This is a very comfortable room, with beds, bookshelves, and chairs. There is a picture of a fairy riding a crane on the wall. The words "The world is big, do what you like" is written on the blank space.
Wiping the blood from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, Huan Zong stood up and walked to the painting.
"Heaven and earth are big, do what you want..."
Just now, his mind was sucked into the illusion
This illusion is too real, so real that he is still a little dazed at the moment. He never thought that Konghou would become a dual cultivator with other people.
He wanted her to live fresh and happy forever, become a powerful monk, and finally ascend to immortality. The only thing he didn't expect was that she would have a Taoist companion.
Turning around to the door, he stretched out his hand to pull the door. With a little effort, the door opened.
"Finally out!" Konghou rushed out of the room, walking happily as if he was going to buy his favorite Feixian dress with his senior sisters.
Hearing the sound of the door opening on the opposite side, she put away her ecstatic joy and looked up at the opposite side.
The man in white clothes with a face like a crown jade also looked at her.
