After Du Yuejiao returned to the mountain, she said that she saw Shi Hao flirting with another girl and she couldn't stand the stimulation for a while, so she ran away... Putting aside the complicated inside story, this conclusion is actually not wrong.
"I'm sorry, Master!" The girl hugged her master's waist lovingly.
Although I was bullied by that bastard and did everything he did without realizing it.
But deep down in her heart, the girl still felt that the person she felt most sorry for was her master who had been worried about her because of her disappearance these days.
Du Yuejiao left home and entered Taoism when she was young. To her, her master is her only real family member, who is like a mother to her.
The moonlight covered the windowsill, the moonlight seeped in, and the ground was covered with silver frost.
Talking about the recent events, Du Yuejiao whispered, "I never thought that someone as powerful as Lord Long Zi would be killed. Those people in the martial arts world are really abominable."
Zhuo Mulan sighed softly. She knew that she could no longer let her female disciple live in the beautiful illusion she had woven for her in the past. She whispered, "The one who killed Lord Long Zi is called 'Absolute Sword' Zhao Xian. He has been wanted by the Six Gates for a long time and is ranked 19th on the blacklist, but in the martial arts world, everyone calls him the Great Hero Zhao."
Du Yuejiao was surprised and asked, "Hero? Is this kind of person worthy of being called a hero?"
Zhuo Mulan said: "Although this hero Zhao has great skills, he never bullies others and always acts for justice. Those who died under his sword were all people who deserved to die. Therefore, people in the martial arts world respectfully call him a hero."
Du Yuejiao opened her eyes wide, unable to believe it: "But, he killed Lord Long Zi..."
"Long Zi Xian Wu" Lu Jin was one of the eight martial immortals of Chong Xian Sect. Du Yuejiao had met him many times in the past. In her impression, this Long Zi was always upright and a great man respected by everyone.
Zhuo Mulan shook her head and said, "Do you know why 'Absolute Sword' Zhao Xian wanted to kill Lord Long Zi?"
Du Yuejiao asked anxiously, "Why?"
Zhuo Mulan sighed and said, "He wanted to avenge the 'Xunjiang Confucian Hero' Zong Youbi's family..." At that moment, she told the story of how the Zong family was wiped out and how the Zong family's daughter was raped and murdered.
Du Yuejiao was shocked: "All of this was done by Lord Long Zi? How, how is this possible?"
Zhuo Mulan said: "Alas, in fact, our Chongxian Sect does not have a good reputation in the martial arts world. It is just that we are so powerful that most people dare not speak out. Do you know why your uncle betrayed Chongxian Sect? Probably, it was because he couldn't stand it anymore, right?"
She no longer concealed anything and told him the darkness behind Chongxian Sect. In her arms, the girl twisted uneasily. As a member of Chongxian Sect, she was always proud of her origin from the "orthodox Taoism". She could not imagine that this "orthodox Taoism" was actually like this.
If it was someone else who told her all this, she might still be skeptical, but the one who told her these things was her master.
Zhuo Mulan said: "Do you know why those people in the martial arts world risk their lives to snatch the Sealing God Stone? Why does your uncle feel guilty about creating the Sealing God Stone? The martial artists in the martial arts world all call the imperial court the Barbarian Court. Our Chongxian Sect is a scum of the martial arts world who colluded with the Barbarian Court and betrayed China."
"Three hundred years ago, when Chongxian Sect was still called Chongming Sect, it was just a small sect in Taoism. It won this status by joining the Barbarian Court and helping the Barbarian Court suppress the Chinese people."
Du Yuejiao said uneasily: "But, isn't it said that at that time, the prosperous dynasty was extremely corrupt, and the Venerable saw through the secrets and determined that the destiny was in Jin..."
Zhuo Mulan said softly: "Since they are helping foreign enemies suppress China, they naturally have to find a reasonable excuse for their despicable behavior. However, where is the destiny in this world? Everything is just a lie to deceive oneself and others."
Du Yuejiao murmured, "So, so Master... So those who robbed the God-conferring Stone are the good people?"
Zhuo Mulan said helplessly: "Perhaps it is a bit childish to use the description of good guys and bad guys to divide the boundaries. But you should know that your uncle is a person who, even if he has always been indifferent to worldly affairs, he still couldn't get over his own hurdle in the end, rebelled against the immortal sect, and stood on that side."
The girl felt that all the education she had received since childhood was strongly impacted at this moment, and she was speechless for a long time.
Kunzhen Academy is the academy that all direct female disciples of Chongxian Sect must enter. Everything they receive here is about how Chongxian Sect represents the destiny, how it represents the authentic Taoism in the world, and how everything Chongxian Sect does is just.
When she found out that all this was an illusion, the only thing the girl felt was darkness.
Zhuo Mulan knew exactly how she felt, so she held her female apprentice in her arms and comforted her. After a while, she whispered, "You just said the word 'shi', but you actually meant Shi Hao, right?"
The girl raised her head and looked at her master in shock.
Zhuo Mulan said: "Shi Hao was the villain who captured you at that time, and then he changed his identity to rescue you. His purpose at that time should be to obtain information related to the Sealing God Stone, right?"
The girl stammered, "Master... you know this too?"
Zhuo Mulan said: "At the beginning, I didn't think about it. Who would have thought that there is a person in this world who practices both Taoism and magic at the same time? It was only that night at the Yuandan Huo family, when I was chasing the thief, I was captured by him accidentally. At that time, I found that the thief practiced both Taoism and magic, which was extremely strange."
"Logically, since I discovered his secret of practicing both Taoism and magic, he should have killed me. But he didn't do that. Instead, he let me go. Afterwards, I recalled the details and guessed that he was actually Shi Hao. And the reason why he took such a big risk to let me go was obviously because of you."
Du Yuejiao was secretly surprised. Did the senior brother capture the master at that time? On the one hand, it was a little unbelievable. The senior brother's ability was even better than the master's
On the other hand, she was relieved that her master still liked her after all, so he didn't kill her master to silence her... After all, in that situation, any normal person would think of killing to silence her.
The girl hugged her master, snuggled in his arms, and muttered, "Who knows if he really likes me? He bullied me like that, made me run around in circles, and then just left without saying anything..."
Zhuo Mulan hugged her back and said with a smile: "On the contrary, he used so many means, didn't he just want you to like him? If he didn't like you, why did he make things so complicated? In the eyes of the people in the martial arts world, we are all scums of the martial arts world who are attached to the Barbarian Court. His position is against the Barbarian Court. He obviously had the opportunity to kill you, but he didn't do it. He even let me go because he loved me..."
At this point, her face turned red for no reason... That guy didn't let her go at all!
Zhuo Mulan said gently: "Actually, I don't know what happened to you two in the past few days. But I think he has something to do with it. Did he apologize to you?"
The girl buried her face in her master's plump breasts, her cheeks burning.
He did apologize, but the way he apologized... I felt like I was still bullied by him!
The girl whispered, "But there seems to be another woman beside him..." When she thought of the female thief who was sometimes ugly and sometimes beautiful, she became so angry that her teeth itched.
Zhuo Mulan was startled. Has his disciple already discovered the clues
She hugged the charming female apprentice and said softly, "Men are sometimes like this. They look at what's in the bowl and want what's in the pot, but this doesn't mean he doesn't like you. Besides, when it comes to beauty, can my apprentice lose to others? As long as he treats you well, you don't have to care too much about small things..."
It took an entire night to do ideological work on the female disciple!
Chapter 129 Magic Source Upgrade
Shi Hao sat cross-legged in a magic circle drawn with the blood of the immortal child.
The Mother Killer's Heart and Yingye's Evil Knife were placed at the two ends of the magic circle.
There were six candles placed next to it, and each candle was poured with the blood of the immortal child.
All the candles were lit by him with magic fire, and green smoke rose up.
Close your eyes, concentrate, and chant the mantra.
The darkness suddenly surged over like a raging tide.
Brush, brush, brush, brush, brush, brush!
All six candles burst into blue flames, and the blood of the Undead Child seemed to be ignited, burning with a sizzling sound.
The circle of fire spread and the entire magic circle was burning.
Shi Hao sat in the circle of fire. The burning characters intertwined and twisted with each other, forming a bloody house.
Shi Hao felt as if he was in a sea of blood. Everywhere he looked was blood... but his eyes were closed.
No matter what you see, you must not open your eyes... This is the special instruction given by the Fire Charm Girl for this ceremony.
Even though I closed my eyes, I could still "see". This kind of thing sounded quite bizarre.
But in the rituals of the Demon Sect, nothing is impossible.
Although he did not open his eyes, Shi Hao clearly "saw" the scene in front of him.
This also made him feel an urge to open his eyes and see whether the scene in front of him was real or just an illusion.
He resisted the urge and kept cursing.
He saw skulls swimming in the bloody sea.
There were ghostly lights in their eyes, and they bared their sharp teeth and bit at him ferociously.
He remained unmoved and continued chanting the spell.
At his side, Yingye's vicious knife was emitting murderous aura, which scared all the skulls away.
"I'm going to die!" There was a female demon from above him, wearing a red crown and a red cloak, rushing towards him with her fangs and claws bared.
The nails on her ten fingers were long and pointed, curving forward like sharp knives. Her eyes were empty, but inside them were blood-red beads that shone with a fierce light.
She had a long and narrow face, huge breasts, and was grotesque, ugly, and murderous.
In an instant, her nails as sharp as blades had grabbed Shi Hao's chest, wanting to rip him open.
Shi Hao even felt the pain of his flesh being torn apart.
At this moment, the heart on the other side began beating as if it was irritated.
Swish, the beating heart seemed to have a bloody hand reaching out, grabbing the murderous knife, and slashing at the terrifying female devil.
The female devil let out a shrill cry, swung her big red cloak, turned around and fled.
Everything around became dark at this moment.
With the creaking sound, it was as if an unknown door opened in the darkness.
"Hey, handsome boy, it's you again!" A pair of hands touched Shi Hao's chest from behind, "It seems like it hasn't been long since we last met, why are you here again?"
The voice was soft and alluring, and the hand seemed to touch his skin directly through his clothes, then slid up along his skin and stroked his face: "Little handsome boy, hehe, the more I look at you, the more I like you! Come on, have fun with me!"
Shi Hao ignored her voice and continued chanting the spell.
"I like you so much, why are you so cruel and ignore me? I know a lot and can let you enjoy the pleasures you will never enjoy in your life."
The woman seemed to be lying on his back, her hands sliding down from his shoulders, across his lower abdomen, and continuing downwards.
Shi Hao just ignored her and treated her as if this woman had never existed... Maybe she really didn't exist.
He just recited a spell over and over again.
"Alas, what a heartless man!" The woman's voice was full of resentment. "Well, since I like you so much, I will give you a warning. Handsome boy, you are doomed to be unlucky in love. You have to be careful recently and stay away from those pretty girls, otherwise, you will get into trouble."
Her voice became faint and gradually faded away.
Suddenly, the light spread out, and a blue meteor broke through the sky and penetrated into Shi Hao's body.
Only then did Shi Hao slowly open his eyes. Everything around him was quiet. Looking outside, it was already evening. He did not feel how long he had been doing this ceremony, but the whole day had passed just like that.
Beside him, the magic circle drawn with the blood of the Undead Child disappeared without a trace of blood. The candles had long been burned out, leaving only six pools of residual wax.
The heart and the knife were still there, but the heart had already rotted and had a faint foul odor, as if it had been left there for ten days or half a month.
As for Yingye's fierce knife, the blade was blunt, the blade was rusted, and the ominous aura on the knife had completely dissipated. It was originally a top-grade sword, but at this moment it had completely turned into an ordinary sword that could not be more ordinary.
Shi Hao silently observed himself and found that the demonic energy in his body had been replaced. Even more powerful demonic energy was stirring within the demonic energy, waiting for him to draw it out through the practice of martial arts.
Shi Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Overall, the upgrade of the magic source went smoothly.
As for the final "warning" from the female demon during the ceremony, he did not take it seriously at all.
This Fire Charm Girl also warned him that he should not pay attention to the words of these demons, whether they were true or false, and should not think about them too much. But when you pay attention to them, you may have fallen into her trap.
Especially for this so-called "prophecy", how close is close? How far should one stay away from a pretty girl? Does the bloody disaster mean a cut finger or a stab? These things are inherently vague.
At least, neither Fairy Shengxuan nor Fire Charm Girl taught him about "fate". Fire Charm Girl even said directly, "Man disposes, but Heaven disposes".
Of course he believed in his two wives!
Shi Hao jumped up, stretched his muscles, waved his hand, and released a piece of magic fire, which rolled towards the rotten heart and burned it to ashes.
Although his heart was burning, he could not stay in this room anymore, so he left the empty room.
When he got outside, he took a bath in the pool water, then returned to the attic, put on dry new clothes, and sat cross-legged on the couch.
He swallowed the elixir he had prepared earlier and continued to practice in peace.
The external elixir turned into a warm current, running around in his body until it rushed up to the ancestral orifice and combined with the internal elixir.
Although he had practiced the seventh-grade technique to perfection and condensed an inner elixir, because it relied on the forced enhancement of the true dragon's energy, this inner elixir was empty and unreal, swaying in his upper dantian and could dissipate at any time.
At this moment, the inner and outer elixirs merged into one and turned into Yuandan.
Above his head, ice flowers spread out layer by layer, and the fallen petals scattered into ice beads around him, like a dream.
This is the miracle that is created when the Jujing Liuzhu Jue is cultivated to the extreme and combined with the external elixir.
Shi Hao began to practice the Three Yuan Flowing Pearls Technique and the Nine Yin Demonic Yuan Technique.
The aura derived from the Taoist Yuandan combined with the internal force cultivated from the Xianbing Jue, Zhenshui Jue, and Xuanfeng Jue, the Three Yuan Flowing Pearls flowed through his meridians like a trickle.
The internal force cultivated by the Nine Yin Demon Yuan Jue was much weirder, illusory and had nothing in common with the previous internal force.
As Fire Charm Girl said, the internal force cultivated by Nine Yin Demon Yuan Jue can basically not be used to fight against the enemy. Its only use is to practice Yin Charm Nine Transformations.
Because they had just been upgraded, the internal strength of the Three Yuan Flowing Pearl Technique and the Nine Yin Demon Yuan Technique was still very weak.
But because he had already risen to the sixth level at this moment, he tried to practice the Magic Wuji Art. The internal force of the Magic Wuji Art increased greatly and was combined with the Mysterious Charm Art.
He quickly thrust out his palm, and with one strike, a strong wind whistled, and flames formed in front of him. The flames spun rapidly like a vortex, swirling several times before disappearing.
Although the Jujing Liuzhu Jue taught him by Fairy Shengxuan is a seventh-grade martial art, it originally has the characteristic of releasing true Qi.
The magic power generated by Mo Xiao Wuji Gong was originally unable to be released.
But now that he has reached the middle level, it is natural for him to release his internal energy.
At this moment, the Nine Yin Demonic Energy was just at its infancy and was not enough for him to start practicing the Nine Changes of Yin Charm.
