Chapter 285 Sheath the knife
He Bingde made no sound anymore, and a faint fire ignited on his body, burning both him and Ying Wangtian into dust.
At this time, the sun was setting over the mountains, staining the sky with blood red.
Mu Zhen waved her sleeves, blowing up the breeze, and the dust from Ying He and the others was scattered in the wind, and they didn't know where they landed.
He beckoned for the storage rings from the two of them, and refused to take anything else.
Mu Zhen checked the storage ring and saw that there was a restriction on it, so she threw it to Lin Bai.
Lin Bai took it and looked at it carefully.
The so-called restriction is also a type of formation, but it uses the spiritual consciousness of the Golden Pill monk as a bridge. Now that the owner of the storage ring is dead, he can only break it by force.
After pondering for a while, Lin Bai opened the door.
After looking through it, there are a lot of good things. In addition to various elixirs, there are also talismans, tokens and other things.
But if you take these things out, you will be in trouble. Opportunities are in front of you, so don't be greedy for these things.
"Didn't you find the letter from Fairy Deer?" Blood seeped out of Mu Zhen's face again, but she still had a smile on her face.
"No." Lin Bai answered honestly and threw the two storage rings aside.
"Have you slept with her?" Mu Zhen asked suddenly.
"She and I are enemies rather than friends." Lin Bai frowned very seriously.
"Really? Why do I feel that you are different from her." Mu Zhen smiled, "So, have you ever slept with her?"
"No." Lin Bai replied.
Mu Zhen tilted her head slightly, looked at Lin Bai, and finally believed it, but still said: "It seems that she wants to sleep with you!"
"Sister Zhen, I beg you, how could you only focus on bed matters?" Lin Bai immediately refuted.
"It's not bad." Mu Zhen actually admitted, "But after getting along day and night, after living and dying together, you admired my ability, and I admired your ability. We naturally felt sorry for each other and ended up on the bed together."
She nodded her chin, "Didn't Pei Ning get deceived by you like this?"
"Sister Zhen, even when we don't have a bed, Pei Ning and I are still close friends in life and death, and we are worthy of being entrusted with the funeral arrangements." Lin Bai explained in a straight-forward manner.
"This is the difference between Lu Qingyin and Pei Ning. Peining follows you wholeheartedly, but the Lu Fairy has gone far away, precisely because one of you slept while the other did not." Mu Zhen smiled.
"What's the explanation?" Lin Bai really didn't understand.
"Remember, the deepest passage through a woman's heart is..." Mu Zhen leaned into Lin Bai's ear, whispered and smiled, a bit coquettish and a bit shy.
Lin Bai raised his forehead and asked, "What about you?"
"Of course I'm attracted to your wheel-turning ability." Mu Zhen took off her shyness, only remaining coquettish.
"If it hadn't been for the great road, I would have stripped you of your clothes!" Lin Bai was aroused by her.
"Come on!" Mu Zhen raised her head and placed one hand on her hip.
Lin Bai ignored her and walked towards the top of the mountain.
"You little pervert, I don't know how many people have slept with me behind my back!" Mu Zhen cursed and quickly followed.
At this time, the two of them had a fierce battle. Although they were not seriously injured, they spent a lot of energy and spiritual energy.
Now that we are getting closer to the top of the mountain, we feel that the burden is heavier. The knife intention in the body can no longer be suppressed. It not only invades the muscles and bones, but also breaks out of the body one after another. The skin is full of small wounds, and drops of blood flow out, and its momentum is difficult to stop.
Lin Bai had the power of Hunyuan Twelve Transformations, so he could still endure it. But Mu Zhen was already stopping every step, which was extremely difficult.
"Yin Yan first introduced the secret method to burn the trapped people, and then activated the bead pills, which suffered a backlash, and the oil was exhausted. Just now, he forced himself to climb to the top of the mountain, and the burden was heavier than us. I'm afraid the disaster will be worse."
Lin Bai's heart felt more auspicious, but his evil intentions were much weaker. The stone plaque hanging around my neck became warmer and warmer, as if I was returning to my hometown.
"It seems that Mo Yingcheng and the others can't catch up. He is wise. I'm afraid that what I just said has been understood by him, and he only wants to serve your goddaughter." Mu Zhen looked back and looked down the vast mountain, but saw only clouds and mist. , there is no figure of half a person.
The two of them stopped talking and continued climbing to the top of the mountain.
Although most of Yin Yan has no strength to fight anymore, the two of them are still vigilant to prevent any changes.
The mountain road was rugged and winding, and there were rocks and trees. After walking for two quarters of an hour, the two of them could see the top of the mountain in front of them.
That Yin Yan was really perseverant. At this moment, he was lying on the mountain road, with wounds all over his body. The blood was stuck to the dust and gravel. He climbed forward, dragging a long bloody path.
"Mine! Mine! They're all mine!" When Yin Yan saw that Lin Mu and the two were already more than ten feet away, he shouted loudly and moved forward desperately.
There are still white bones in his hands, and there is only resentment in his single eye.
Mu Zhen was also at the end of her rope, just trying to hold on.
Lin Bai also felt uncomfortable. The knife intent inside his body was being destroyed, and his muscles, bones, and internal organs seemed to be shattered. The extremely subtle but endless destructive intent was like a millstone, wearing away his flesh, flesh, muscles, and even his cultivation and consciousness.
"He has already exhausted his strength, but with only a heart of Taoism, he can hold on here. It is really admirable." Mu Zhen gasped for air, and his whole body and even the skirt he was wearing were dyed red.
Her eyes were slightly dull, but also seemed to be surging upward.
"Since I left home, I have never been injured like this. After such things, I have seen such people." Mu Zhen bent over, unable to support himself, so he also lay on the ground and crawled forward. "This time, my mood is so... Come on, it’s already a worthwhile trip.”
She smiled at Lin Bai and continued: "Lin Zhuanlun, I always thought that there were very few people like me in the world. The more I know, the more I feel that even though you and I are the chosen ones, we are not inferior to you or me." People are like crucian carps crossing the river. Not to mention, there are many people who have a better state of mind, endurance, and desire to seek the truth than you and me.”
Mu Zhen looked back and looked down the mountain, "Uncle Wood Demon once told me that the more you know, the more you admire Chen Zhiyuan. I was not convinced before, but now I am a little convinced."
"This is because when you climb a high mountain, not only your realm but also your vision will rise, and your state of mind will also rise." Lin Bai said with a smile.
"You are so good at making people happy. Even if you sleep with Gu Qingshui in the future, I will find it unusual." Mu Zhen said.
"..." Lin Bai didn't answer. He raised the gourd and took a sip of wine. Then he bent down and put the mouth of the gourd to Mu Zhen's mouth.
After taking a sip mixed with blood, Mu Zhen gritted his teeth and continued to crawl forward, "Don't worry about me, just move forward!"
Lin Bai nodded slightly, took a breath, and continued to move forward to chase Yin Yan.
At this moment, there is Yin Yan in front of him and Mu Zhen behind him. Both of them are climbing on the ground. The former is slow and the latter is fast.
Lin Bai was the only one who could still stand firm, but he felt that each step was too heavy and he could only move slowly.
Another quarter of an hour later, Yin Yan had climbed to the top platform.
Lin Bai followed closely behind, walking on the bloody road that Yin Yan had climbed, and finally reached the top.
I saw that the land on the top of the mountain was vast, but there was no strong wind. There is a plum tree growing on it. It is not very tall and its lifespan is unknown.
However, the tree canopy is so vast that it covers most of the top of the mountain.
There are stone figures under the tree, each sitting on a stone bench. There is a stone table between them, and they are playing chess.
Lin Bai gasped for a while and took another sip of wine.
There is no strong wind on the top of the mountain, but the feeling of burden is even worse, and the sword intention becomes more and more violent.
It’s like carrying the heaven and earth on your back and resisting thousands of stars on your shoulders.
His feet seemed to be stepping on endless destructive sword intent, as if he could turn into nothingness at any moment and become a speck of dust between heaven and earth.
The pain was so painful that it would crush all the flesh, blood, and bones in his body.
Lin Bai practiced the Hunyuan method and experienced great pain when he first practiced it. However, compared with this time, it was simply incomparable.
Three steps ahead is Yin Yan, within reach.
At this moment, Yin Yan was not dead yet. He didn't know whether it was because of his desire to seek enlightenment or because of something different in his body. He was still crawling forward on the ground, looking straight at the two stone elephants under the plum tree in front of him.
Soon, they saw that Yin Yanna's hand, which had long been broken into bones, turned into dust bit by bit, starting from the fingertips.
"Senior Brother Yin, the road ahead is heaven, and the sword's intention is even worse." Lin Bai reminded. "If you want to reach heaven, how can you do it without injury or pain?" Yin Yan's voice was hoarse, as if it was rusty, and he kept moving forward.
Soon, his fingers were worn away bit by bit, and the bones and flesh seemed to have been wiped away, not even dust.
Yin Yan continued to move forward, and his right hand disappeared little by little, leaving only his wrist, but not even a drop of blood was shed.
"It's harder than climbing to the sky." Mu Zhen also climbed up, not forgetting to remind, "Yin Yan, your approach is wrong."
"Wrong?" Yin Yan stopped as expected, lying on the ground and turned around, looking at Lin Mu and two people who were only three or five steps away from him. There was no hint of fear on his face, but he said disdainfully: "You two are certainly better than me. A hundred times, but when it comes to pursuing the Tao, I, Yin Yan, am definitely not worse than you.”
"Senior Brother Yin, your will to seek the truth is certainly respectable, but this place is definitely not something that the Golden Core Realm can resist."
Lin Bai took another sip of wine, looked at the two stone statues under the plum tree, and said: "Besides, the desire for truth is not the desire to die. Brother Yin, there is no way ahead, but you are paranoid and move forward. It is for the sake of seeking Die? Or seek truth? ”
Yin Yan was stunned, then with disdain on his face, he spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and said, "You don't know how difficult it is for me to seek the Tao, so how can you know the tenacity of my pursuit?"
He continued to crawl forward as he spoke. Both hands are gone, and every life has been wiped away by the endless intention of destruction.
Yin Yan endured the weight and the intention of the sword, staring at the two people under the plum tree, and walked forward with difficulty.
"How?" Mu Zhen looked at Lin Bai and asked if there was any way.
"What about you?" Lin Bai asked.
"The sword intention has passed through the years, and its power has been worn away, and there is not even one in a hundred. However, most of the remaining sword intentions are gathered on the top of the mountain. To us, it is also a high mountain."
Mu Zhen gritted her teeth, forced herself to stand up, turned over her hands and took out the copper bowl.
She took a breath, and the copper bowl began to glow slightly, slowly covering three steps around her body, covering Lin Bai as well.
"From my point of view, I'm afraid it won't last long." Mu Zhen looked at the copper bowl with a distressed look.
"You have to give it a try." Lin Bai said.
Mu Zhen nodded and stepped forward, followed by Lin Bai.
When Yin Yan saw that Lin Mu and the two were protected by magic weapons, he became even more eager. He hissed in his mouth, stretched forward his broken arm, and pushed forward with his legs.
The copper bean's defense was extremely strong, and it actually blocked most of the sword's intention. Although the destructive intention was still boiling inside and outside the body, it could still be endured.
Soon, the two of them were on the same level as Yin Yan, and the light emitted by the copper bowl became dimmer, but their limbs were not wiped out by the destructive sword intent like Yin Yan.
Beyond Yin Yan, the light of the bronze bowl becomes dimmer. The blood on Mu Zhen's face could not cover up the paleness.
She stopped, her whole body crackling with tiny sounds, followed by countless blood arrows pouring out.
Mu Zhen finally couldn't hold on anymore and knelt on one knee on the ground, holding a copper bowl in one hand, her eyes covered with blood, "It can't be done!"
"Hahaha!" Yin Yan laughed when he saw this, "This place is a Jedi, and all your magical powers are useless. You forcefully draw the magic weapon and hurt yourself! Haha, what can you do?"
Yin Yan continued to crawl forward, and most of his arms had disappeared.
"Senior Brother Yin, you could have said that you were seeking for an opportunity when you attacked me and me. Now the situation has reversed, but even though we have become life-and-death enemies, we have never laughed at your desire to seek truth. Instead, we are respectful. Why are you ridiculing me now? Senior Brother Yin, have you ever thought that it’s because of your poor character?
"..." Yin Yan was stunned, and then he said with a fierce look on his face: "If you want to kill me, kill me! What should I fear?"
"Just now you knelt down and begged for mercy, but now you have spoken harsh words." Lin Bai was also very disdainful, "I respect your strong determination to seek truth. I won't kill you now. I won't do anything until you see me take the opportunity!" ”
Blood spurted out of Yin Yan's mouth. He stopped crawling forward and sat up instead. He glanced at the broken arm with one eye, and then stared at Lin Bai gloomily.
"Now the sea is boundless and the mountains have no tops. What do you think?" Yin Yan squeezed out a sentence.
"From the sea to the boundless sky, I am the shore, and the mountain is as high as the peak." Lin Bai held the mysterious gourd and stepped forward.
"Don't be provoked by him!" Mu Zhen said quickly.
Lin Bai ignored it. After leaving the protection of the copper basin, he felt trapped in an endless sea of fire, and seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss.
The whole body seemed to be torn into bits of dust inside and outside. Not only the flesh and blood, but also the mind was melted into nothingness.
Every time Yin Yan climbed up, his fingers were worn away. Now Lin Bai has made meritorious deeds in the twelfth turn of Hunyuan, but every step forward is extremely difficult.
No trace of his body was intact anymore, bits of flesh and blood slipped off, and then fell into dust. The muscles and bones were full of cracks, and the internal organs seemed to be crumpled into a ball.
Even the golden elixir seems to be unstable, as if it is being pulled by some kind of avenue and will dissipate at any time, returning to the avenue of heaven and earth.
After walking ninety-nine steps forward, Lin Bai knew that his body was on the verge of collapse both inside and outside. If he goes any further, he is afraid that the golden elixir will be shattered before he is wiped out by the endless destruction of the sword.
It was only more than ten feet away from the stone statue under the plum tree, but it could not take another step forward.
Lin Bai sat down cross-legged and looked at himself. Bones can be seen everywhere on the limbs, and the internal organs are riddled with holes.
Looking inside, the golden elixir that divides yin and yang into black and white is so violent that it seems to burst or dissipate at any moment.
"He is in a dilemma!" Yin Yan opened his eyes wide and swallowed a pill.
"He is living towards death, looking for a way to break the situation. What are you waiting for?" Mu Zhen turned back and looked at Yin Yan, with a smile on his face.
"..." Yin Yan was stunned for a moment. He knew that Mu Zhen's words meant that he was already mortal, so he ignored it.
Mu Zhen held the copper basin in her hand and looked at Lin Bai again.
At this time, she was already a hundred steps away from Lin Bai, and she could only see him sitting cross-legged with his back to her.
"What are you going to do?" Mu Zhen asked loudly.
"Imitate the method of Taoist Wuxiang." Lin Bai replied.
"What to imitate? How to imitate?" Yin Yan immediately asked doubtfully.
"Do you need help?" Mu Zhen knew that Lin Bai had been thinking about the endless destructive sword intent here, and wanted to lead one into the mysterious gourd.
"I'll give it a try first." Lin Bai replied with a smile.
After finishing speaking, Lin Bai pressed the gourd with his hand and stared at the stone statue under the plum tree in front of him for a moment. Lin Bai closed his eyes.
When they came to the stone plate, they saw the mist billowing, extremely violent. The wisp of green in the middle seemed unstable, as if it would stir at any time.
The white color of the moon disappeared in a blink of an eye and was annihilated by the mist.
Countless stars in the mist seemed to have chaotic trajectories, and were wrapped in endless black.
After recovering slightly and stabilizing his consciousness, Lin Bai opened his eyes and tapped the gourd.
A flying knife flew out, with no burning fire intent or pure sword intent. It just seemed like an ordinary thing, circling around Lin Bai.
"Are you trying to suppress the will of the sword? Don't you know that the person who wields the sword must be a powerful person of the same level as the Wuxiang Taoist, and is close to the Tao. Don't you want to compete with the Tao of Heaven?" Yin Yan looked at the flying knives all over the sky. There were many. Puzzled.
Mu Zhen was too lazy to say anything, so she just sat down, held a copper bowl in her hand, swallowed a handful of pills, and waited quietly.
After a long time, the flying knife was still hovering, but it could only stay in the area around Lin Bai. It was extremely difficult to spread out every time.
After waiting for another hour, Mu Zhen saw faint signs of instability in the flying knife.
Then a mist was seen dispersing, covering Lin Bai, and then the flying knife also disappeared into it.
There is no wind on the top of the mountain, all under the canopy of plum trees.
"If we follow the method of Taoist Wuxiang, we should first move the blade, use the Avenue of Space, and then use the Avenue of Time to wipe out most of the power, and finally suppress this force that seems to be able to destroy the world, cut off time and the galaxy. One knife.”
Mu Zhen murmured in her mouth, and suddenly she felt that the mist seemed to tremble slightly, as if there were stars, and then she heard the sound of waves crashing on the shore.
But she was too seriously injured, and when she listened carefully, she could only hear the faint chirping of cicadas.
