Wen Shu, Shi Shiran and Miao Anyun walked in without any intention of taking action.
The blockade that was like a natural chasm blocking everyone's footsteps was ignored by this man, as if it was just a decoration. But Miao Anyun, with his ferocious talent and intuition, completely sensed the murderous intention beneath the tranquility of the ancient and obscure ban.
The result was beyond Miao Anyun's expectations, but it could also be said that it was within his expectations.
-The two of them encountered no obstacles and easily passed the ban set by the ancient power.
Miao Anyun raised her head and looked at the man who had returned to his gentle and harmless appearance, feeling a little complicated.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Miao Anyun always felt that Wen Shu the moment before was his true appearance.
However, no matter how he changes, he is still the same person - the lover who has always protected him.
Shaking his head to get rid of the inexplicable thoughts in his mind, Miao Anyun obediently lay on Wen Shu's shoulder and calmed down.
…
Being led by Wen Shu, Miao Anyun wandered around in this so-called powerful cave like a headless fly for several hours. Even if he was very patient, he still felt a little boring. So, he couldn't help but flick his slender tail covered with fluffy hair irritably.
The next second, a big hand appeared on the head.
Wen Shu rubbed Miao Anyun's head gently and comfortingly, and said warmly: "Be good, we are almost here."
Miao Anyun shrugged his ears depressedly and said, "You have said this N times along the way, right?"
After sensing Miao Anyun's secret murmur through the contract, Wen Shu didn't explain anything, just smiled gently and continued to circle around.
After about a stick of incense, Wen Shu stopped.
"Meow?" What's wrong
The kitten lying on his shoulder stared at him with its round cat eyes, and its pale golden eyes that looked very beautiful revealed a hint of human doubt.
Seeing his spiritual pet staring at him without blinking, as if he was the only one in his eyes, Wen Shu felt inexplicably happy.
"We're here." With that said, Wen Shu took a step forward.
Everything around him changed the moment he took this step.
Originally, he was still in a maze-like palace with a simple atmosphere, but now he appeared in a vast ancient forest.
Miao Anyun was confused. Could this be the legendary maze
Before he could think about it, a scent that filled the air that was extremely tempting to him attracted all his attention.
The cute nose moved, and Miao Anyun jumped off Wen Shu's shoulders. The delicate flesh pads stepped on the soft turf, causing a slight itchiness. Miao Anyun didn't pay attention to this. He couldn't help but run in the direction of the scent.
Wen Shu didn't intend to stop him, he just followed Miao Anyun silently.
By the time Miao Anyun came to his senses, he had led Wen Shu to a lake at some point.
The lake looks quite clear, and the water surface is surrounded by spiritual energy that is almost transformed into substance. The richness of the spiritual energy is almost the same as that of other holy cultivation places outside. Compared with these, what is more eye-catching is obviously the white jade lotus platform in the center of the lake. In the center of the lotus platform grows a spiritual grass that makes people feel very magical at a glance.
The spiritual grass was crystal clear green, with ice-blue mysterious lines wrapped around its branches and leaves like emerald jade. As it swayed gently, it made a strange and sweet sound - it sounded faintly like the clear call of a phoenix. It was also like the roar of some spiritual beast nearby, carrying an unspeakable rhythm.
The strange thing is that there is no spiritual soil in the center of the lotus platform. The spiritual grass just grows upright in the jade, and the roots are inserted straight into the jade, and no one can detect any violation.
Wen Shu glanced at the jade platform in the center of the lake and then withdrew his gaze. A smile suddenly appeared in his dark eyes. He gently picked up the kitten on the ground with a somewhat confused look on his face. He didn't care that the kitten's dirty paws had left many light gray marks on his white sleeves.
-Obviously... His mysophobia is well-known in the sect.
The gentle black eyes of the man holding his beloved pet flashed, and then he raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and asked with a half-smile: "Want that spiritual grass?"
Miao Anyun, who had long since broken away from the instinctive attraction, stared at the spiritual grass without blinking. Hearing the man's question, he nodded without hesitation. That little appearance that seemed to be taken for granted did not worry about his current nominal "master" at all.
In fact, when he saw the spiritual grass for the first time, the inherited memory belonging to Xie that Miao Anyun received flashed in his mind, and he spontaneously identified the type of spiritual grass - the transformation grass.
Rumor has it that the Transformation Grass cannot be planted in ordinary spiritual soil, and only the purest jade containing chalcedony can be used for its growth. Because the growth conditions are too harsh, and the transformation grass that is less than a thousand years old is useless, the already rare and hard-to-find transformation grass gradually disappears, and only a few records still exist in ancient classics. .
Now that the legendary spiritual grass appeared in front of him, Miao Anyun was also a little shocked. It should be said that the ancient power is really amazing. This shape-shifting grass is obviously of a high grade, with perfect branches and leaves with clear ice patterns. It is at least ten thousand years old.
The transformation grass, which is more than a thousand years old, has only two functions. One is to break through bottlenecks and stabilize the foundation. The second one is to help the monsters that cannot transform into human form.
For Miao Anyun who wants to become an adult as soon as possible, the transformation grass undoubtedly has a fatal attraction for him.
Looking at the kitten in his arms who was still staring straight at the magical grass with its light golden cat eyes full of covetous color, the man's lips curled up, and his peach blossom eyes that always contained a hint of teasing and irony softened, and he He had to fly forward and take down the transformation grass.
Just when he was about to take action, Wen Shu suddenly frowned and glanced not far away without any trace, but within a short breath, he returned to his previous calm appearance.
The next moment, there was a sound of breaking through the air, which suddenly sounded. At the same time, a man holding a compass came out of the other direction of the forest.
This man was dressed in yellow clothes with a silver compass pattern embroidered on the cuffs. He seemed to be a disciple of the Bailian Sect. As soon as he appeared, he focused his attention on the lotus platform in the center of the lake. When he saw the spiritual grass standing in the center of the lotus platform, he couldn't help but feel a bit of ecstasy on his face.
As his eyes moved slightly, when he touched Wen Shu, he couldn't help but stare. The disciple of Bailian Sect frowned, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he did not take action immediately. He carefully circled Wen Shu's body several times, and he didn't know what he found, but there was a faint look of taboo on his face.
"I don't know what to call this fellow Taoist? I'm Huang Xuan." He cupped his hand at Wen Shu and the man who called himself Huang Xuan smiled kindly, and the tense and tense atmosphere before suddenly relaxed.
"Fellow Taoist, are you a disciple of Bailian Sect?" Wen Shu also smiled gently and asked instead without answering. After seeing Huang Xuan nodding, Wen Shu's smile deepened a little, "If my guess is correct, fellow Taoist is the one who takes advantage of the Taoist. I wonder if I am right?"
"What fellow Taoist said is correct." Seeing that Wen Shu seemed to have heard of his master's name, Huang Xuan suddenly looked happy, "Huang didn't expect that fellow Taoist had also heard of his master's name."
"Huang Daoyou is joking, who knows how to become a Taoist?" Wen Shu replied in a warm voice, with a gentle expression, but his dark eyes were so deep that no emotion could be seen.
"In that case, can fellow Taoist do something convenient?"
"Oh? What do fellow Taoists mean by this?" As if he really didn't understand the meaning of Huang Xuan's words, Wen Shu gently stroked the back of the spiritual pet in his arms and chuckled.
"I'll tell you the truth." Huang Xuan's face became solemn, "I came here this time on Master's order to get the spiritual grass in the center of the lotus platform. This treasure-seeking compass belongs to Master." After that, Huang Shang raised the white jade compass in his hand to show that what he said was true.
The compass was made of unknown jade. It was a flawless white jade, reflecting the vast starry sky, dotted with stars. In the midst of the soft white light, there seemed to be endless starlight bursting out, which was extremely extraordinary.
Hearing this, Wen Shu only smiled faintly and remained silent, but the movements of his hands became softer and gentler.
This situation fell into Huang Xuan's eyes, and the smile on his face suddenly faded a little: "What? Fellow Taoist, you don't want to give face to my master?"
There was a faint hint of threat in the words.
"There is no need for words to say how precious this transformation grass is. We both know it well. Today, Huang Daoyou wanted Wen to give it up with just a few words. It is a bit naive." Wen Shu shook his head with a smile. "Fellow Taoist, there's no need to waste any more words. Unfortunately, I also have some uses for this spiritual herb. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it as desired as my fellow Taoist."
"Since fellow Taoist disciples are unwilling to give in, then we and I will meet the real chapter." Huang Xuan's eyes flashed coldly, and finally his patience ran out, and he broke up with Wen Shu without thinking.
"That's very good." Wen Shu nodded in agreement, "I just have to trouble my fellow Taoist to wait for me for a while."
Huang Xuan just nodded indifferently.
Lowering his head and patting Miao Anyun on the head, Wen Shu said softly: "Wait for me on the side." Then he waved his sleeves and placed him a hundred meters away.
"Meow..." Looking at the man, a trace of worry emerged in Miao Anyun's golden eyes, but he lay down obediently and quietly stared at the two people who were at war with each other for a while. After all, he believed in his lover in his heart.
Seeing the kitten lying on the ground obediently looking at him, a gentle look flashed across Wen Shuefeng's handsome white jade face.
Huang Xuan also looked surprised because of this. He looked at Miao Anyun and then at Wen Shu. His expression was extremely strange, as if he was wondering why Wen Shu would raise a mortal beast alone.
Is there something strange about this mortal beast? Thinking of this, Huang Xuan couldn't help but take a closer look at the Wuyuan that seemed to be an ordinary beast, with a look of deep contemplation on his face.
"Fellow Taoist, please." Wen Shu did not give him a chance to observe carefully. He moved his steps and blocked Huang Xuan's probing gaze.
"Please." Huang Xuan frowned as his vision was blocked, his eyes moved away from Miao Anyun and fell on Wen Shu's face. At the same time, the compass with the precious light flowing in his hand shone brightly as if it had been activated by spiritual power.
Seeing this, Wen Shu stopped talking and just reached out and pulled out the spiritual sword hanging at his waist. The moment the coldly glowing spiritual sword was unsheathed, the gentle smile that had always hung on Wen Shu's face faded, leaving only solemnity and coldness.
Feeling the sharp sword intent, which stabbed his body before he even got close to him, causing a faint pain, Huang Xuan's face showed a moment of shock, but he forced himself to calm down.
Miao Anyun, who was watching the battle, was a little confused by Wen Shu's expression at this moment, as if the gentle gentleman from Zhilan Yushu before was just a figment of his imagination.
So, are lovers divided again? Mu Anyun tilted his head and thought in distress.
