Chapter 282: Recruiting Disciples and Ambush in Tiannan
Jiuli World, the Death World of Dryads.
In a mountain forest, a handsome Taoist was drinking with an old woman in white.
Ever since Lu Cheng used the phantom demon flag to drain the soul from his body, although the white-clothed tree demon's mana has been greatly reduced, his clear mind on the spiritual platform has turned to Qingming, and his Taoism has been improving over the years.
She can actually absorb the magma from the earth, turn death into life, solidify and nourish this dead world, and bring it back to life.
Lu Cheng would come in sometimes and bring her several volumes of Taoist scriptures. This demon can be regarded as the first Taoist-like figure in Jiuli Ding.
Above the round table, there is a charcoal wine stove, white smoke curls up, and the aroma overflows.
After the wine was cooked, the white-clothed tree demon first poured a bowl of wine for the Taoist in front of him, and then poured a bowl for himself.
The wine soup was dark green, a little turbid, but fragrant. The Taoist raised it to drink with the person in front of him.
As soon as the thick green scalding wine soup entered his throat, Lu Cheng instantly felt a strong bitterness. His taste buds seemed to be paralyzed by it. After a long time, it turned into a sweet and mellow taste, and his body felt numb. There was a profuse sweating from the inside out, and even the soul seemed to feel refreshed.
He tasted it carefully and found that regular drinking of this turbid wine could slightly increase the monk's spiritual awareness and make his eyes more spiritual.
"How is it? Do you still like this bitter leaf wine?" the white-clothed tree demon asked.
"...It's a bit too strong, which is great for you and me, but if others drink it, I'm afraid they have to add some honey to mix it."
"Hahaha, real person. As long as you like it. I have nothing else to do in this world. I just practice wine to pass the time.”
“No, there is no complete death realm in the Jiuli world, but the environment in this world is cruel. There are fewer creatures
But because of this, the creatures that seek to survive in this world are often violent and difficult to control, so fellow Taoists, you should also be more careful. ”
After talking to each other, the two drank again. From then on, in the Jiuli Cauldron in Lucheng, in addition to the jade honey jelly produced in the world of insects, the dead world of dryads also began to produce bitter leaf wine.
< br>Sixth level spirit Bitter leaf wine, this wine can help qi, cleanse the yin residue, refine the essence and nourish the qi, take it for a long time to warm and nourish the spiritual consciousness, and nourish the spiritual eyes.
After three rounds of wine, the white-clothed tree demon asked: "Master, this is it." Come here for the first time, seems to have something on your mind? "
"Indeed, I promised my Taoist friend before that I would find a chance for reincarnation for your two children, but today I said goodbye and had some thoughts. ”
"Oh, what do you think of the real person?"
Hearing this, the white-clothed tree demon was already slightly dissatisfied. How can something that the other party has already agreed to be changed just at the drop of a hat? What's more, he had already paid a huge price. Thinking of this, even the remaining anger in his heart was faintly aroused.
Lu Cheng seemed to be completely unaware of this and continued:
"Fellow Taoist, who has been familiar with Taoist scriptures over the years, should know that your two children can be regarded as spiritual fetuses of heaven and earth. They should have great fortunes, but Taoist friends were so cruel that they imprisoned a large number of souls and damaged their merits and virtues. It is impossible for these two children to cultivate to the level of Yin in this life. The state of Yang Zhuanyi has reached the realm of change.”
“I am also in the midst of a calamity today. If I get the help of my two Taoist friends, I may be able to escape from this calamity. If I can escape from this calamity, I will give this Taoist guide here. A promise that in the future, if Taoism is successful, I will accept the two sons as my disciples, and try my best to help them avoid disasters and become Taoists. In the future, they may be able to break away from the barriers of this world. "
Lu Cheng's words were not lies. As his own Taoist magic power increased day by day, Lu Cheng could also feel that he could use more functions of Jiuli Ding. In the future, if he could cultivate Proving the soul does not necessarily mean that the white-clothed tree demon cannot be released and set free.
After hearing Lu Cheng’s words, the white-clothed tree demon got up and walked back and forth in the forest.
In this dead world, the sky is dark, and most areas only have earth fire and gray rocks. Only a small area that the white-clothed tree demon has barely transformed over the years can only see mountains, forests, and green spaces.
Of course a big demon with a wooden nature would not feel comfortable in such an environment.
“Boy, come out.”
After thinking for a moment, the tree demon called like this.
Immediately afterwards, a chubby child of five or six years old ran out from the woods in the mountains.
"Mother, are you calling me?"
The little fat man was still a little afraid of Lu Cheng. After arriving, he hid behind the white-clothed tree demon and did not dare to look at Lu Cheng.
"Kneel down. From now on, you will worship Master Lu as your teacher. Treat him like a father and a mother, and your obedience and filial piety should be more important to me. Even if one day your teacher asks you to kill him as your mother, Don’t violate it either!”
"Mother?"
"Kneel down!"
When the little boy saw his mother being so stern, he knelt down in aggrieved manner.
However, at this time, Lu Cheng said:
“Not busy.”
As he spoke, he waved his sleeves and quickly flew out a ball of Yin Qi beside Lu Cheng, transforming into a cold iron armor, the incarnation of a ghost infant, and the sixth-level puppet of Destruction Heavenly Lord.
With a finger, the back of the puppet's neck opened, revealing a golden sphere. As the Taoist thought, those sleeping hundred poisonous golden silkworm Gu flew out, and one of them appeared. Ghost baby.
"Don't pretend anymore. I have worked hard for you these years. It's just that I have been giving you opportunities these years to take the initiative to become a disciple. But sometimes you want to bite back and sometimes you want to escape. If not You don’t know how many times you have done these things while being suppressed by these golden silkworms like me, right?”
With Taoist Lu Cheng’s words, at this moment, the mechanism on the back of the Destroyed Heavenly Lord’s neck suddenly closed. .
Then the puppet suddenly turned into a gray sword rainbow, and slew towards the landing city in the form of a man-sword fusion.
Endless hatred, endless grievances, infinite hatred, all condensed on the sword.
Therefore, under the stimulation of this kind of swordsmanship and sword intent, the Xuanyin Flying Sword almost condensed into a sword shape with a strange appearance and contained the unprecedented boundless resentment and anger. Come straight to Lu Cheng.
But Lu Cheng did not avoid or defend, but still drank at the side of the round table.
Because he knew that someone would definitely block the blow for him.
锵.
The wood spirit energy that filled the sky suddenly condensed into a crystal clear needle light, striking hard at the side of the front stabbing Xuanyin Flying Sword.
The ghost baby himself was seriously injured, and there was a certain mana gap between him and the white-clothed tree demon. With one blow, he immediately fell out of his sword shape.
"Brother!"
"Bitch, you want to stop me?"
The first one was from the second child, and the second one was from Gui Ying. What the white-clothed tree demon said.
"You evil son, why don't you kneel down and admit your mistake to your master? Zhenren Lu has profound Taoism and deep roots. Only by worshiping him as your master can you brothers have a future."
"Second brother, you If you still recognize me as your brother, then join me in killing this wretched servant and the evil one!"
The next moment, the ghost infant used Xuanyin Feijian to fight with the white-clothed tree demon.
At first, the white-clothed tree demon still had some upper hand, but because she was restrained by her actions, Guiying also learned many sword skills from Lu Cheng. The white-clothed tree demon quickly fell into a disadvantage.
Just when the Xuanyin Flying Sword was coming down, almost killing the tree demon in white.
A ray of cyan sword light suddenly came and pushed the Xuanyin Flying Sword away.
The ghost baby looked at it intently, and immediately became furious, but it was his second brother, who at some point took control of several cyan flying swords and rose up.
"Second brother, what are you doing?"
"What are you doing? How can you kill my mother?"
"She wants to eat me, she is you Mother, but you are no longer my mother. Well, well, I thought you were still my relative, but now it seems that I have no care in this world and no longer have any relatives.”
At this time, the poisonous golden silkworm Gu that filled the sky flew back to Lu Cheng, turned into a golden ball, and was taken back into the sleeves of Taoist Lu Cheng.
The Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu is known as the most evil poison in the world in the Tongxuan Realm. Jinxing has the title of the King of Ten Thousand Gus. Although it is only at the fifth level of the Golden Core realm, it has been suppressed for so many years that the ghost infant puppet does not dare to bite back or escape.
Just now Lu Cheng summoned most of the golden silkworm Gu from the body of the Destruction Tianzun, but there was still one hidden in the body of the Destruction Tianzun.
At this moment, he holds a magic formula and urges it to move.
“Ah!”
The ghost infant puppet, who was having a good fight with the white-clothed tree demon and his brother, suddenly cried out in pain and fell from the air. The cold iron puppet hit the ground heavily.
After a while, the mechanism at the back of the puppet's neck opened again, and a golden silkworm Gu flew out.
“I don’t want to be your master, I don’t want to worship you, I don’t accept it, and I won’t worship you even if I die!”
Being captured by the white-clothed tree demon from the puppet, the ghost baby was still struggling. Although it is the eldest brother, due to continuous injuries and loss of its own vitality over the years, it looks like a one or two-year-old baby, looking much smaller than its younger brother.
“I want to accept a disciple, not an ancestor. Since you really don’t want to become a disciple, I will follow the agreement I made with your mother back then and send your true soul to reincarnation. Let’s end our fate today.”
Lu Cheng summoned the Phantom Demon Banner. Without the mana provided by the Ghost Infant incarnation, Lu Cheng could no longer control this sixth-level mid-grade magic weapon freely. However, it was still possible to use it to contain a ray of true soul. In the future, he would use "Tai Shang Miao" to "Sutra" can save the soul, if it doesn't work in ten years, it will take a hundred years, if it doesn't work in a hundred years, it will take a thousand years. It can always send its true soul into reincarnation, and it doesn't count as a violation of the agreement.
With such a true soul full of endless hostility, the result of being sent to reincarnation may not be good.
Righteous monks generally believe that after the souls of demonic monks enter reincarnation, their reincarnations will be more miserable than those of righteous monks. Of course, no one can prove this.
Let alone Yuanying and Yuanshen, even if they ascend to the upper realm, the law of reincarnation is still unpredictable and difficult to understand. Taoist monks are only relatively certain that changing one's innate nature requires years of accumulated practice. When it comes to the law of reincarnation, Buddhism studies it more deeply than Taoism. Buddhism focuses on the afterlife, while Taoism focuses on this life. The focus of Dharma principles is fundamentally different.
"Please Master Lu, please hold off on taking action."
At this moment, the white-clothed tree demon stood in front of him and begged for words.
"Fellow Taoist, some things cannot be forced."
"Back then, I was as violent and blind as he is today. In the final analysis, I still owe him." Bai Yishu The demon smiled miserably, then turned around and said:
"Why are you willing to accept Zhenren Lu as your teacher? You have learned swordsmanship in a short period of time, don't you still know Zhenren's methods?"
"I can do whatever I want, what does it have to do with you?" The ghost baby is not afraid of death at this time, so of course it is not easy to persuade.
However, the tree demon in white then made a move that caught Lu Cheng and even the ghost baby off guard.
She knelt down to the ghost baby and kowtowed heavily with her head on the ground.
"I know you are full of resentment, and it is indeed my mother who owes you. If you really can't forgive your hatred, just kill me with that flying sword. Second brother, let go of your elder brother."
Under the eyes of his mother, Erzi released his grip on the ghost baby.
However, the ghost baby stared at the mother kneeling there for a long time, but finally did not make a move.
In years of great calamity in the world, when people are dying of hunger thousands of miles away, people are sold by the pound like livestock, not as good as dolphins and dogs.
At the time of life and death, there are also loving fathers who sacrifice their lives to care for their young children, and there are also evil mothers who throw their children into the cooking pot. It is just a dilemma between life and death.
In the years that Guiying followed Lu Cheng, he also read many Taoist scriptures. If Lu Cheng had just taught him how to use a sword, the flying sword would have been chopped down by this moment.
As for the Taoist scriptures, although Guiying has forgotten most of them now, some of them have been integrated into his mind and soul, making him no longer blindly into intolerance.
"...Back then, you wanted to eat me, but I was lucky enough to survive. The grace of giving birth has been repaid. Today, if you help me escape from disaster, I owe you another favor. I will also help you escape from disaster in the future."< br>
Say it , the ghost baby flew close to Taoist Lu Cheng, kowtowed and said:
"Master taught me Taoism, taught me the swordsmanship, and rebuilt it with grace. Since the ghost baby has received this grace, he will also be a master in the future. Work hard to repay the teacher's kindness . ”
“This child’s temperament still tends to be extreme and fierce, but this is not necessarily a bad thing. The murderous and violent aura is also a boost to the sword.”
This is the day. , Lu Cheng accepted two named disciples. Although these two disciples each had their own shortcomings, they were important protectors in the catastrophe before them. Moreover, Lu Cheng vaguely felt that these two disciples of his would be more important in the future. There will also be good Taoist deeds.
...
In Nan Lihai, time passed like this day after day.
Of the monks sent to rescue, some succeeded, some failed, and some were never heard from again. In any case, the atmosphere in Nan Lihai became increasingly tense.
In the monk war, unless one’s own magic power is at its peak, no one dares to be sure that he will survive. Even if the magic power is strong among monks in the same realm, if he accidentally gets involved in the battle of magic among high-level monks, he will be besieged by many people. In the world, life and death are just a matter of a moment.
Kun Zi Island is the cave of Ji An, the True Lord of Yuanying in Lingyuan Mansion.
In the secret room of seclusion, this true king is breathing out his qi and cultivating his magic power.
Ji'an was born as a Buddhist cultivator. He has experienced many things during his hundreds of years of practicing Taoism. He also had good opportunities to cultivate to where he is today.
But after cultivating to the realm of Yuanying, Ji An found that no matter how hard he practiced, it was difficult to break through the realm of mana. With this kind of progress, even if he practiced hard for a lifetime, he could only reach the realm of Yuanying before his life span expired. mid-term.
In his early years when he was in the Alchemy Realm, he fought with others and his body was broken. He secretly took away the body once. Therefore, although he later cultivated to the Nascent Soul Realm, he was unable to reverse the calamity. The path of this life That’s it.
After deducing this, Ji An recruited many disciples to establish a sect, recruited wives and concubines, and no longer pursued the path of immortality.
Seeing the majestic scenery of famous mountains, reading all the beautiful scenery in the world, claiming to be the ancestor for thousands of years, and finally dying in the arms of your wives and concubines, such a life is not in vain, right?
Therefore, in the past hundreds of years, Zhenjun Ji'an has been relatively lazy in his practice. Recently, he was involved in a great catastrophe in this world, so he practiced his magic power so diligently, hoping to regain some magical powers. mana.
Suddenly, outside the cave, a blue flying talisman flew quickly and was blocked by the legal ban at the entrance of the cave.
"Who is so ignorant and disturbs the ancestor's cultivation."
Although he frowned, Zhenjun Ji'an still waved his hand and put the blue talisman into the cave and took it into his hand.
A moment later, a ray of light suddenly rose into the sky from the cave and left Kunzi Island.
But Zhenjun Ji'an had a beloved concubine who was accidentally attacked by a sea beast in the sea. At this moment of life and death crisis, he just activated the life-saving talisman given to him by Zhenjun.
Many concubines of high-level monks have shallow and frivolous magic power. They usually do not stay too far away from their husbands, and they have magic talismans on their bodies to protect their lives. But for Nascent Soul monks, the distance of a thousand miles is only an instant, and they are absolutely dead. Most of the time, these female cultivators can save their lives as long as they can issue magical talismans.
"What's the matter with Qian'er, returning home at such a nervous time... Yes, she told me a few days ago that her father recently passed away and she had to go home to observe mourning for a few days. It's also bad luck. ”
This Ye Qian is the concubine that Zhenjun Ji’an has only accepted in recent years. She is lively, smart, soft and charming, and it is extremely pampering for Zhenjun Ji’an to enjoy all the beauty. Otherwise, at this moment, This Taoist may not leave Kunzi Island lightly for this reason.
The light that was thousands of miles away passed by in an instant.
After arriving at the location where the spiritual talisman was issued, Zhenjun Ji'an used the technique of spiritual eyes, and the light blue spiritual light covered his eyes. He saw a group of his concubines, wrapped in a blazing electric light, and already in danger.
The monster that is constantly attacking is a fierce water ape. This evil ape is ferocious and violent. It will attack all living things in sight for no reason, and this one is obviously good at water mines. Taoism is even more difficult to control.
"Huh?"
Zhenjun Ji'an frowned slightly when he saw this scene, and a piece of talisman paper in his sleeve spontaneously ignited without fire.
The next moment, he had already used the escape light to land in front of his concubine and servant, blocking the attack of the fifth-level Li Shui Yuan.
"Husband, you are finally here. I returned after observing my filial piety. I was attacked by this ferocious beast just as I arrived. Both Qing'er and Ping'er died!"
Ye Qian said as she spoke She threw herself into Ji An's arms. As expected, she was as beautiful as heaven and fragrant, with skin as smooth as gel. She was a rare beauty in the world of immortality.
At the same time, on Kunzi Island.
Gui Dongmei, the Nascent Soul Lord of Bihai Pavilion, and Lu Cheng, who were practicing in seclusion, woke up at the same time, and monks from three sects guarded Kunzi Island.
Of course, Gui Dongmei, Lu Cheng, and Ji An left communication talismans for help with each other. Just now, Ji An activated the most urgent talisman.
Two rays of light suddenly rose into the sky and quickly gathered together.
"Kunzi Island is of great importance. Fellow Taoist Gui is here to guard, and you can go back as soon as you leave."
"No, the elite monks of our three sects are all here. I have just ordered the disciples Turn on the defensive forbidden method and leave so many golden elixir monks to cooperate with the fifth-level formation, then Even many Nascent Soul cultivators can't attack them at the moment, not to mention that there is a teleportation circle on the island, and the support is quick. I will go with my fellow Taoist."
Although there are some conflicts of interest and estrangements on weekdays. , but once it comes to the overall situation, the other party dares to make a decision. Therefore, Lu Cheng did not refuse again.
"Start the defensive formation directly? The Tiannan monks haven't arrived yet, and there are so many soldiers. If you make a mistake, you may be wrong."
While flying away, Lu Cheng said with a smile.
“Although Ji’an was born as a casual cultivator and was incompetent and lustful. He even took the most talented disciples in his sect as concubines and had no shame. However, he was born as a casual cultivator and has experienced many dangers in his life. This I obey him at one point, that's all It’s a misjudgment, but it’s nothing to waste some spiritual stones.”
At the same time, on the other side, Zhenjun Ji’an suddenly turned around while killing the golden elixir monster to defend against the magic weapon Xuangui. The shield blocked the fatal sword from behind.
Black smoke and black fire suddenly appeared all over that "Ye Qian", burning from the inside out.
"Are you on guard? How could this be? Is there any flaw in my transformation?" From this "Ye Qian" came an indistinguishable voice of male and female, like a chirping ghost voice, which made people feel uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts.
"No, your illusion is really perfect. Even the body fragrance on Qian'er's body can be imitated exactly the same. But when I was young, I traveled all over the world. There is a sect in the Tiannan cultivation world called Hundred Beasts. Palace, this water ape is very tame, so when I saw it I vaguely feel that something is wrong.”
Although he blocked the assassination from behind, in all directions of Zhenjun Ji’an, one after another Tiannan monks with huge mana aura flew up from the sea. Under the lock, Zhenjun Ji'an secretly complained in his heart.
“If I had known earlier, I would not have looked for so many concubines. Sure enough, the more concubines there are, the more flaws there will be.”
“Hahahahaha, you are worthy of being a true cultivator. Sir, you are knowledgeable Bo is cautious, Taoist Tie Xiao and Lord Gui Dongmei, who are stationed with you on Kunzi Island, should be here soon, right? They will trap you and seize Kunzi Island in one fell swoop. The whole area of Nanlihai can be destroyed with a single blow!
In addition, my skill is not illusion, but skin painting. When your concubine died, she thought you could save her, hahahahaha! "
"Evil thief, I want you to pay with blood! ”
Ji’an Zhenjun was so embarrassed and angry that his eyes were red. He waved his Luck Jue forward, and suddenly a golden sword light flashed across the void and slashed directly at the Tiannan monk in front of him. Go.
The sword light is dozens of feet long, and the sword speed is also fast. It was extremely fast, cutting through the atmosphere in an instant, making a crackling sound like thunder.
No one can be ruthless, even if they have cultivated to the realm of Yuanying and have many concubines, but here. For a moment Zhenjun Ji'an was still really angry
"What's the use of only being angry? If you don't have the skills in your hands, I will send you to see my concubine today."
The sword light stabbed and tore the remains of the demon shadow apart, but However, several rays of black light flew out from it like explosions, first spreading in all directions and then covering Zhenjun Ji'an.
Boom!
The sword burst into flames, and little sparks scattered in all directions.
The fierce sword light swept across and exploded the black light. The fierce fire in the sword melted the existence into black smoke. There was a fishy smell above the sea, but several bloody skeletons suddenly crossed the sword light. , pounce and bite.
