The old Taoist priest is Qingxuan's biggest supporter. Whether he admits it or not, at least he plays a vital role when Fairy Zi Ling has not fully recovered and Shen Lian has not yet achieved Taoism and immortality.
Of course, most Qingxuan disciples don't realize this, and they don't know much about the identity of the old Taoist priest in Taiwei Pavilion.
It's just that Yan Bugui is not one of the majority of the disciples. In the Qingxuan era of Shen Lian, Yan Bugui's status in the sect was already considered high-level.
He forced himself to laugh and said: "How could it be possible? When I started, Taishizu was no different from now. Since I have been here for so many years, I think nothing will happen."
Although Yan Bugui replied like this, he felt really unsure, and there was a long silence.
He also followed the silence, which seemed like a moment, like a breath, but in fact it was night soon.
When Yan Bugui came back to his senses, he found that Shen Lian was already sitting on the stone that was about to become a spirit. He was surprised and laughed. Shen Lian's spiritual infection could actually make him be in a trance for so long, even though he was not alert. , but he couldn't help but be secretly shocked.
At the same time, I felt a lot more relieved, because Shen Lian's fearsomeness and power were exactly what Qingxuan needed most at the moment.
He walked forward and came to Shen Lian's side. Because his mind began to relax, he sat next to Shen Lian.
He found that Shen Lian was looking at the stars in the sky. Taiwei and Ziwei were particularly dazzling at this time.
Yan Bugui wanted to drink, so he took out the gourd containing the wine and handed it to Shen Lian first. Shen Lian took the wine and suddenly said: "Do you know that the stars in the sky seem to be very close, but the actual distance between any two stars, based on our cultivation, may take several hundred to go from one star to another. Only now can we arrive.”
Yan Bugui said: "How do you know this clearly? Could it be that you saw it in the records of some remaining Taoist scriptures?"
Shen Lian smiled and said, "I saw it in a middle school textbook."
Yan Bugui asked in surprise: "What kind of ancient book is the middle school textbook?" He has never read much, and he doesn't like to go to Taiwei Pavilion. He is not very knowledgeable, but this is the first time he has heard of a name like the middle school textbook.
Shen Lian said: "It's not an ancient book, it's just a book I have read before. In fact, I have been thinking that if one day I cultivate enough, I must try to fly to the nine heavens, cross the stars, and take a good look. "
Yan Bugui muttered: "I'm afraid that I can only do it when I teach you to break through the universe. I hope I can see it in my lifetime."
After he finished speaking, he saw a sword light stabbing towards him. It is difficult to describe in words the brilliance and majestic breath of this sword light, which moved the avenue between heaven and earth and shocked the soul.
Within a short distance, no one could avoid this sword. When they got closer, the sword tip was gently raised, and a shadow appeared in the void, and was mercilessly pierced by the sword tip.
The shadow was in pieces, leaving no trace, as if it had never appeared before.
Yan Bugui saw Shen Lian lift the jug and drink a large gulp of wine. The Taoist shirt could not conceal his heroic spirit. At the same time, there was a wooden sword beside him, which was flowing with green and yellow jade color. The sword light just now was also made by This sword is displayed.
After a while, Shen Lian returned the jug to Yan Bugui and sighed softly: "Did you see that shadow just now?"
Yan Bugui muttered: "He comes and goes without a trace. He must be a demon."
Shen Lian said: "Not bad."
"Where did this devil come from? Could it be that Yanxu came back secretly?" Yan Bugui said with some fear. Although he had never fought against Yanxu, his master Zui Taoist had fought with Yanxu once. He still remembered Zui. The Taoist once told him about Yanxu, and he was actually a little afraid. That was the first time he saw his master, the Taoist Zui, behave like this.
Shen Lian shook his head and said: "No, there has always been the aura of the devil on Zifu Peak, but it is very subtle. But because I have now entered the stage of breaking the delusion, and the spiritual platform is not ambiguous, the delusions that arise in my heart are given to the devil. Contaminated by the spirit, he turned into a demon."
Yan Bugui said in astonishment: "How can Zifu Peak have the aura of a demon?"
In Yan Bugui's view, even if the aura of heavenly demon appears in Taiyi Peak, it is more reliable than the aura of heavenly demon appearing in Zifu Peak, because the Taiwei Pavilion classics are inherited, suppressed by Qingxuan's luck, and too many people have lived in this peak. The Immortal Immortal, whose divine will still exists, and Qingxuan's own Taoist legacy, is simply a natural place to ward off evil spirits, not to mention that the old Taoist priest has stayed in Taiwei Pavilion for such a long time.
Shen Lian said leisurely: "This is also one of the reasons why I have stayed at Zifu Peak these days. If I hadn't happened to be at the critical point of going back to my true state, I would have been hard-pressed to discover this even if I had achieved immortality."
Because his spiritual platform is not ignorant by nature, delusions will naturally leak out sometimes, and his delusions, which are close to cutting off the delusions of monks at the level of delusion, make the devil's energy, like a fly smelling a broken egg, no matter how deeply it is hidden, it will be seduced. come out.
It was not the first time that Shen Lian had killed the phantom of the demon just now, but he still could not find out where the aura of the demon that appeared was hidden in Zifu Peak.
Yan Bugui said: "This matter must be clarified, but didn't Grand Master Taizu find any clues before?"
Now that Shen Lian has discovered it, it is impossible for an old Taoist priest who is far better than ordinary immortals to have stayed in Taiwei Pavilion for so long without discovering anything, even if he does not have a coincidence like Shen Lian. "
Shen Lian was silent for a while, then looked at the stars in the sky, and sighed softly: "I have been thinking about where Yanxu got the magic method of transforming himself into a demon, and how he did it. In Qingxuan I practiced this evil method secretly, and my master Biyun didn’t discover it until I was about to achieve great success.”
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Yan Bugui said with some horror. If Shen Lian hadn't said this, he would have thought this person was crazy.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Master, why do you have to tell me this? Junior Sister Gu is closer to you, and Junior Brother Lu has a better relationship with you, why do you have to tell me."
Shen Lian smiled calmly and said: "Bugui, you were such a hero when you fell into the trap and became a bandit, but now you are no longer a coward."
Yan Bugui was choked by Shen Lian, so he had to take a sip of wine.
"Some things have to be said. Besides, I only have some guesses. I don't doubt that he is really the mastermind behind the scenes. It's just that the aura of the devil is definitely related to him anyway. I don't tell senior sister because I'm afraid that she will lose. I don't want to tell Shouyi because he is very upright. Just treat this as a joke between you and me. There is wine, stars, and moon tonight. You and I must not live up to the scenery and the wine." Shen Lian. He looked calm and spoke eloquently.
After a night of drinking with Shen Lian, Yan Bugui found that not a drop of the good wine he had hidden was left, and he felt extremely distressed. He went down the mountain at dawn, saying that he didn't want to see Shen Lian again. At the same time, after going down the mountain, he went straight to his master Zui Taoist's cave. If his master was not there, he would go and steal some wine from Zui Taoist's wine pool.
