Shu Mountain is layered with mountains and towering green into the clouds. It is famous all over the world for its magnificent mountains, deep peaks and valleys, and magnificent forests. However, it is also due to the Xianmeng who hides in this mountain to make it the number one fairy mountain in the eyes of the world. The leader - the immeasurable faction.
For hundreds of years, there has been an endless stream of people going to Yunding in Shushan Mountain to ask for help, study, and medicine, no matter the cold, summer or festival.
But what Xie Bian was interested in was a kind of exotic flower on the Diancang Peak in Shushan Mountain, which blooms in autumn when all flowers are withered, and it will not survive when transplanted. Infinity, Lanxi Town at the foot of the mountain is rich in all kinds of delicious wines, and every time he goes there, he feasts his mouth.
It's a pity that this trip to Shushan has no chance for mountains, waters, tea and wine. It was the city god of Shushan who reported to the underworld, asking him to go and collect his soul.
The name of this city god is Sun Xiazhen, who used to be an elder of the Wuliang sect. During his lifetime, he went around eliminating evil spirits, subduing demons, and helping the people. He enjoyed a good reputation, but his cultivation was limited. The rich and powerful families spend their whole lives dreaming of prosperity, or they become city gods in the local area. One day, if they accumulate enough merit, they will be ranked among ghosts and immortals, transcending reincarnation.
Ordinary dead people are directly taken back to the Hades by the local city gods or ghosts. Only when they encounter those who are difficult to deal with will they ask the ghosts to come out.
This time, the person Sun Xia reported was a high-ranking monk from the Wuliang Sect. The cause of his death was frightening - he was dug out of the golden core and died.
Xie Bian, as a general of the underworld, has traveled with his master since he was a child between the worlds of humans and ghosts. He has seen countless horrific deaths. He died from the theft of golden elixir. "Dan" may be making a comeback again.
Since ancient times, this kind of unconscionable way of practice has committed numerous crimes in the world of cultivating immortals. The outer alchemy cultivated with the inner alchemy is called "human alchemy". The improvement of the practitioner's cultivation base is more obvious. Killing one person and taking one pill can increase the cultivation base for several years or even decades, and it is not a problem to completely change the root bone. Can't kill.
Because stealing golden elixir has to be dug alive, those who have stolen elixir will have their whole life destroyed, not to mention most of them will die of serious injuries or extermination. Those with strong temperaments would rather commit suicide in order to fail the wish of the magic cultivator. Such a person who passed away must have deep resentment, his soul will not be recovered, and he will easily cause harm to the world.
Xie Bian didn't explain the details, but just hearing the word "stealing pills", he was already worried. When he went to the Town God's Temple, Sun Xia was really anxious.
"Oh, little white master." Sun Xiazhen's eyes went straight past Jie Bian and drifted behind him, "Where's Zhong Tianshi?"
Xie Bian cupped his hands: "Elder Sun. Master has gone on a trip, and the date of return is undecided."
Sun Xia is really a bad tempered person. Her low cultivation is due to her deep experience in the world. When he heard the words, he was immediately angry and anxious: "Where did that old drunkard hang out again? I'll let you come alone."
Xie Bian said helplessly: "The juniors don't know either, Elder Sun might as well tell me about the situation." Since he was fourteen years old, he has been in charge of his own affairs. He has seen storms, and even if his master is not around, he has never been afraid.
"Master Xiaobai, it's not that I can't trust you, it's that this person is really difficult to deal with. This person belongs to my nephew's nephew..." Sun Xia really did the math and couldn't figure it out, "Anyway, he is the real Xiangqu's intruder Big disciple, Meng Kefei, have you heard of this person's name?"
"Xiangqu real person? Isn't that the junior brother of President Li?"
"That's right! This Meng Kefei is extremely talented, and he has cultivated so well that he is enough to be a master in an ordinary fairy sect."
Xie Bian immediately understood why Sun Xia was in such a hurry. Xiangqu Zhenren's elder brother is Li Buyu, the head of the Shushan Wuliang School, the successor of the Wuliang Sword, and the leader of the Immortal League. Xiangqu Daoist is an elder of the Wuliang Sect, and he is definitely not an ordinary person who can be his disciple. With such a cultivation base and such a status, he was killed by stealing pills on his own land. How powerful and arrogant the demon cultivator must be ? Isn't everyone in the monks in the world in danger
"The Wuliang Sect has been leading the immortal families to kill demon cultivators. Although there have been occasional alchemy thieves over the years, only a few low-level cultivators have suffered. Meng Kefei's murder shows that there are high-level demon cultivators. It's going to be a bloodbath." Sun Xia really followed her white beard, her brows were full of worry.
Immortal cultivators in the world have different ways of practicing. There are no fixed methods for sword cultivation, martial arts cultivation, tool cultivation, alchemy cultivation, and talisman cultivation. However, those who practice by harming others or not being popular are all included in the list of magic cultivators and belong to the orthodox family of immortals. Disdainful. However, ordinary demon cultivators will not be driven to extinction, only pill thieves are punishable by everyone. Not only because of the cruelty of this way, but also because a hundred years ago, there was an unrivaled demon that almost overwhelmed both worlds of humans and ghosts. That was the longest nightmare in the world of immortal cultivation.
Sun Xiazhen was a young disciple of the Wuliang Sect back then, and had personally experienced the terror of the Demon Lord, while Xie Bian had heard many evil legends since he was a child. The world hated and feared the Pill Stealer, and even kept secrets about that Demon Lord, not even daring to say his name easily.
Xie Bian comforted: "Elder Sun, don't worry too much, the demon cultivator will definitely not be able to escape the investigation of the Wuliang Sect. Let's go and see the dead first, and things will change after a long time."
—
They were still a step too late, and when they arrived at the place where Meng Kefei was killed, Xie Bian noticed an unusual spiritual pressure—someone was setting up an array to summon the soul.
The soul summoning array is a forbidden technique, this technique is very dangerous, it uses one's own spiritual power to forcibly revive the dead soul, even a person with a deep cultivation base may not be able to control the resentful soul, a little carelessness will cause a fire** *, ranging from loss of cultivation, to life-threatening.
Even if it's just being upper body, the harm to people is not small. Moreover, when they collect souls, they have to face the problem of not being able to hurt the living, but also collecting dead souls.
It seems that Meng Kefei's death had a great impact on the Wuliang faction, and they were willing to take this risk. As the number one immortal sect in the world, the nephew who was in charge of the sect was dug out of the golden core on his own land and lost his life. Pai's face is disgraced, and it is even more difficult to explain to his disciples, friends, and people all over the world.
And to find out the murderer, it is natural to ask the victim the fastest.
It was too late to stop them, Xie Bian and Sun Xiazhen saw an elder leading a few monks, urging them with spiritual power, but they didn't dare to disturb them, for fear that they would be distracted and be devoured by Meng Kefei's soul.
Sun Xia was so angry that her beard flew into the air: "This Xiangqu is really confused. The people from my junior brother's lineage are all idiots. Calling souls will not be able to escape unscathed, let alone the resentful souls of high-level monks like Meng Kefei!"
The soul-calling formation was shining with blue light, and it was very strange. The monks of Wuliang sect could not see it, but the two people from the underworld could see clearly. Meng Kefei's human soul appeared in the formation with a blank face. At first he tried to get out of the formation, but repeatedly After the trial failed, his expression gradually became angry and ferocious, and then he began to rampage, crashing into layers of invisible barriers.
The turbulence of the formation is a pain for the monks who are still inexperienced. Some people began to turn pale and their spiritual power was weak. The real Xiangqu had a tense face, drew a talisman from the air, entered the formation, and shouted: "Return to the soul!"
Meng Kefei's human soul was temporarily suppressed, and a gust of evil wind hung up, rolling fine sand and stones in the formation.
Xiangqu real person shouted: "Meng Kefei, is that you? Master is here, tell Master, who is it that did this to you!"
Meng Kefei was still at a loss.
"Kefei, tell Master, who dug up your golden core!"
The newly dead, three souls and seven souls are dissipating, ignorant, most of them don't know that they are dead, let alone what they are doing at this moment, but this sentence suddenly touched Meng Kefei's memory, he looked down at himself The abdomen, where the clothes were originally intact, suddenly blood gushed out like a spring, and a hole was dug in the dantian. The moment he remembered, resentment surged to the sky, and he roared to break through the formation.
A monk spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow", and the formation was on and off, like a candle in the wind.
"Not good." Xie Bian rushed over, grabbed the void with his right hand, and there was an extra green stick in his hand.
"Who?!" Master Xiangqu looked at the person who came.
A young man in white was holding a sapphire staff and descended from the sky. His white clothes fluttered like snow waves, his black hair was as elegant as a sea of ink, and an ancient talisman was engraved on his white tall hat. Under his handsome face, he was radiant with celestial beauty, as graceful as a fairy.
Meng Kefei's human soul was like a hungry tiger, and entered the body of the low-ranking monk. Xie Bi'an held the soul-suppressing staff against the man's vest, and squeezed it carefully, trying to force Meng Kefei's soul out, but because he didn't dare to use force, If he failed in the first try, Meng Kefei was enraged instead, and his resentment raged like a gust of wind, all the monks were thrown out, and the formation was about to be extinguished.
Only the immortal Xiangqu with profound spiritual power was left struggling to protect the formation: "You, are you an immortal of impermanence?"
Xie Bian shouted: "Master, close the soul-calling formation!" Meng Kefei is absorbing spiritual power through the formation, and it will become more and more difficult to deal with.
"But I haven't asked the murderer yet!"
Jie Bian wrestled with the monk who was upper bodyed by Meng Kefei: "He is dead, and he has been interrogated by the underworld. How can he break the ban and summon his soul? If you can't answer the question, you will kill the monk. If you don't accept it, I will accept it." I will sue you and reduce your lifespan!"
The monk's eyes were red, as if he regarded Jie Bian as an enemy, and he was terribly aggressive. Meng Kefei had cultivated himself, and the immeasurable sword was unpredictable. Dodging, the right arm was quickly hit by the sword.
Sun Xia was really anxious on the sidelines. He can't meet living people, so he can't understand Bian.
Master Xiangqu saw that the monk described him as insane, so he could only accept the soul-calling array with hatred, and helped Jie Bian suppress Meng Kefei together.
Everyone came together and finally subdued the monk. Xie Bian's soul-suppressing stick knocked out Meng Kefei's soul when he knocked on his celestial spirit cover. Under the pressure of the soul-suppressing stick, the human soul became old. Honestly.
Immortal Xiangqu burst into tears: "Who has killed my apprentice, can you tell me, Little Immortal Lord Wuchang?"
Xie Bian pinched the blood coagulation knife to stop his injury. He sighed: "I am sorry for the real person. It's not that I don't want to tell you, I just collect the soul. He has all kinds of life and wants to go to the Hall of Yama for interrogation and judgment. Things are human affairs, and the affairs of the dead are ghost affairs, which cannot be surpassed."
"But... Zhong Tianshi doesn't always take care of human affairs."
Xie Bian was very embarrassed: "Uh, the master and I have different ranks." His master respects his own way, and if he can go to the sky, he may dare to take care of Emperor Haotian's affairs.
"Where is Zhong Tianshi? Doesn't Zhong Tianshi also hate Pill Stealing Moxiu?"
"Master has gone on a tour, and the date of return is undecided. Maestro, I am leaving." Although he is a living person, he tries to avoid people as much as possible when collecting his soul, because most of the living people have plans for them. Master Xiangqu understands the rules of the two worlds of humans and ghosts. It is not too much to just ask for an answer. He has encountered many people who tried to beg him, persecute him, and bribe him to achieve various goals. Every time he met, It's all a headache.
Master Xiangqu was disappointed and extremely sad. Looking at Meng Kefei's body, he said with hatred: "Kefei, go and have a good pregnancy. Master will definitely find out the murderer and avenge you!"
—
Xie Bian brought Meng Kefei's human soul back to Hades and handed it over to the ghost messenger, and his task was completed. The next trial of good and evil is a matter for the Hall of Yama. He was about to take care of his injury, when he heard a loud bluffing voice from afar: "Master Bai, Lord Bai!"
A handsome boy who was only eleven or twelve years old ran over and shouted in horror: "Tianshi, Tianshi is back!"
This young man is their valet, named Bo Zhu.
Xie Bian was both surprised and delighted: "What, Master is back?" He hadn't heard from Master for several months, so of course he was happy at this moment, it could be seen that Bo Zhu was flustered, he was worried that Master might be in trouble again.
"I came back, and brought back someone."
"Huh? Master has suddenly started to do business."
"No." Bo Zhu danced anxiously, "Didn't he bring back a human soul, he, he brought back a living person."
Xie Bian opened his mouth wide: "A living person?"
"Before the Cui Fujun is recruited, you can go and have a look."
Xie Bian broke into a cold sweat: "Let's go!"
