Although this mountain is called "Yiren", it is a group of high mountains with many mountains. The mountains that are much shorter than Yiren Mountain are called "Banren". As for Liangren Village, it is located at the bottom of these two mountains. It is like a paradise with simple folk customs.
The place where the young man was located was located on a sub-peak of Yiren Mountain. When he reached the top of the mountain, heavy rain poured down. At this time, he raised his eyebrows slightly and stood on a flat place.
Just when the heavy rain was about to wet his white clothes, a vacuum zone with a diameter of about one foot in diameter was suddenly formed centered on his feet. Then, he was seen standing with his hands behind his hands, staring at the sky, as if waiting for something.
Not long after, there was only a harsh explosion, and the long-awaited sky thunder was like the majestic light of the ancient gods when they opened the world, majestic one after another from the sky, making people tremble with fear.
At this time, the young man suddenly said for no reason:
"This is your disaster."
His voice was calm and calm, but full of perseverance, and except for a few towering trees on this ethereal mountain top, there was no other living being except him. His tone sounded like talking to himself, but also like a question.
"I've been avoiding it for a long time."
Suddenly, another hoarse and raw voice spread from the top of the mountain, accompanied by bursts of echoes.
The few numbers were spoken intermittently, like ghosts whispering. If an ordinary mortal were here, they would be scared out of their wits. However, no matter how you look at this young man, he does not look like a mortal.
"You have no escape."
The man said softly, and seemed to sigh slightly at the end.
"There are ancient barriers in Yiren Mountain. Except for us local demon spirits and mortals, those who have not reached the spirit-returning realm cannot enter the top of each mountain."
The old voice spoke again, but this time it was said much more eloquently than the first sentence. It was obvious that he was slowly getting used to speaking.
"how?"
the man asked.
"The last time I escaped from the catastrophe, a human came to me. It seemed to be eight or nine hundred years ago, but he later sucked up my cultivation and became the nourishment under this yellow mud."
It seemed like he was talking about something innocuous, and his haggard voice sounded a little casual.
"so what?"
The man still asked calmly.
"So what do you say!"
Before he finished speaking, from behind the man, several dry branches suddenly shot out from an old tree. The knotted branches seemed to be alive at this time, but they did not follow a straight line and flew towards the man from all directions.
Like a sharp arrow piercing the clouds, the tips of the branches are shining with cold light. It is conceivable that if you are really entangled or stabbed by these branches, you will either die or be disabled! But looking at the young man, there was no trace of panic on his face. He just closed his eyes slightly without turning his head, and seemed to be muttering something softly in his mouth.
At this critical moment, there was a sudden flash of light in front of the man, and a long sword with a white handle appeared out of thin air!
As soon as the sword came out, it instantly rotated vertically around him, forming a dense sword net to firmly protect the man. The branches with boundless death energy were strangled as soon as they touched the sword net. It was shattered.
However, the branches were crushed and the old voice fell silent, and the man did not fight back. He just opened his eyes and stared at the sky, waiting for something quietly.
After a while, a human face slowly emerged from the old tree trunk with branches shooting out.
Although this face has facial features, it does not look like a human being. It can only be vaguely seen that the face looks like an old man in his seventies, and the old voice comes from his mouth, which is like a hole dug out of rotten wood. :
"Judging from your cultivation in the early stage of Gui Ling, you should have just entered Gui Ling not long ago, and it seems that you haven't stabilized your state yet. I didn't feel murderous aura when I first tested you, so you should have nothing to do with my heavenly calamity."
The man didn't say it clearly, it seemed to be acquiescence, and he didn't seem to be angry because of the old tree's attack just now, and he still looked calm and calm.
The old tree actually started chatting with the man as if he were chatting about everyday things, and then said:
"This heavenly calamity is the ascension calamity of returning to spiritual perfection. My body is the body of a thousand-year-old ancient pine and spiritual wood, so I cannot move freely all year round. This heavenly thunder was originally my nemesis. I have avoided it for three thousand years. Now, we must ascend to the demon world!"
Speaking of this, Laoshu's voice also trembled a little.
"What's the use of talking to me so much? Judging from your aura, the state of returning to the spirit has already been perfected. You have ascended since then. Needless to say, you understand that there is no cause and effect between me and your heavenly tribulation."
The man's response was a little cold, as if he was waiting for what the old tree demon would say. The tree demon seemed not to resist the coming disaster, and slowly started chatting with the man again:
"My little friend, we are both in the Spiritual Realm, but in terms of age, I am probably several times older than you. To introduce myself, I am an old pine tree in the mountains. I have no name or surname. I call myself Mu Gong out of boredom."
After thinking for a while, the man turned around and answered simply and clearly:
"Yiqing"
The two of them were tens of feet apart, and the conversation was not loud, but this did not seem to hinder the conversation between the two. Oh no, it was one person and one demon.
"Little friend, do you know that when you set foot here, the two of us have already had a cause and effect."
Mu Gong actually laughed as he spoke. The withered tree face was very ugly. Then he said again:
"If my guess is correct, you are also waiting for my catastrophe."
The old tree demon's cloudy eyes suddenly brightened up, and he stared motionlessly at Yi Qing in the distance.
"indeed so."
Yi Qing's answer this time was quite straightforward, without any sloppiness.
"Little friend, if you just answered no, maybe you have become my cultivation base now."
Yi Qing seemed to realize something at this time. He lowered his head and saw tiny strands of velvet roots seeping out of the rocks under his feet.
Although these velvet heels do not look conspicuous, if you are not careful, they may get entangled in people's feet. If you don't have advanced cultivation, such velvet roots will be difficult to detect.
But as the old tree demon finished speaking, the velvet roots slowly retreated under the rock.
"Thank you, senior, for showing mercy! Senior is still worried about me. Are you testing me?"
Yi Qing bowed respectfully this time and asked.
"You don't need to call me senior, as long as you and I are of the same level of cultivation, it's more of a verification than a test."
The old tree demon put away his ugly smile and continued:
"I guess you were waiting for the thunder and lightning, but found that the thunder and lightning turned out to be my more rapid tribulation, so you wanted to collect some of these tribulation thunders that were about to kill me, right?"
"Senior Mingjian."
After a fight, Yi Qing did not give in.
It's just that he feels that there is a big gap between his cultivation in the early stage of returning to the spirit and the perfection of the other party's returning to the spirit. Moreover, he is too old and very strong, so it doesn't hurt to call him a senior.
"My little friend, there is no need to be self-effacing. Fate does not matter, cause and effect are always related. If you want something from me, I also want something from you."
Mu Gong said with blazing eyes. Yi Qing also cupped his hands and said:
"Senior, please speak frankly."
"Can I take the liberty to ask, what kind of rare treasure do you have on your body? I don't have much time left. If you believe me, little friend, then tell me. It may be beneficial to both of us. I can tell you from a long distance away. Feel his spiritual pressure.”
"It's Qilin Ya."
Yi Qing did not hesitate and said decisively.
After saying that, he took out the tiger-tooth-shaped pendant directly from his arms, and then placed it in his palm as a sign of Mu Gong.
He could also feel that the old tree demon's catastrophe was coming soon.
"Haha, it's such an innate spiritual treasure. God will not destroy me! Hahahahahaha"
When Mu Gong saw the tiger-tooth-shaped pendant, his eyes made of dry tree bark suddenly widened with excitement, and the wooden sculpture-like eyes actually shed tears like liquid. This kind of joy The love was so sincere that even Yi Qing was a little bit infected.
Seeing that he had lost his composure, the old tree demon quickly calmed down his emotions and said seriously:
"With such a treasure, my hope of ascension will definitely be greatly increased! But my friend, please excuse me, it is said that Qilin Fang emits two kinds of auras, why do I only feel one?"
"Other people don't know this treasure, but I have been with it for more than ten years. According to my speculation, one of the two breaths of the Kirin tooth comes from the blood at its tip, and the other comes from the tooth itself. I originally wanted to use modified The Three Ultimate Evil-Sealing Formation in the past sealed the spiritual pressure of the Qilin tooth, turning it into an ordinary sculpture, but in the end it only sealed the blood on its surface, which made the tooth's spiritual pressure even greater."
Yi Qing explained simply.
"It turns out that he is a disciple of Qingxu Tian. I'm sorry. With my cultivation level and being so young, I must have a high status in Qingxu Tian. It's really a long way to come here to look for Tianlei. I won't ask any other questions. , I asked if you want to collect the sky thunder, and then use the formation to seal its spiritual pressure?"
Mugong asked quickly. Regarding his background, Yi Qing did not explain it and just nodded slightly in affirmation.
"If you trust me, I advise you to give up on this idea. Based on my understanding of the Heavenly Tribulation and this treasure, the effect of using the thunder formation may be similar to the effect of the Three Ultimate Evil-Sealing Formation of your sect, and it will not have too much effect. It has a great effect, and although this is the first time I have seen this treasure, according to my visual inspection, it is at least the level of a high-grade psychic treasure, with its own spiritual intelligence."
After a pause, Mu Gong continued:
"The blood on this Qilin tooth is clearly used to seal the tooth body, and with your cultivation, no, maybe with my cultivation, you can't separate the blood from the tooth body, so this Qilin tooth will never absorb it. The spiritual power of the Three Ultimate Evil Sealing Formation or the Thunder Spirit Formation. The more you seal the blood, the stronger the spiritual pressure of the tooth body will be, and ultimately you will never be able to achieve the purpose of hiding it."
Mu Gong relied on thousands of years of knowledge and experience to express his judgment to the point.
Yi Qing's brows furrowed when he heard this. Mu Gong's inference clearly hit the mark on his worries, but the old tree demon also said that he wanted something from him, so there must be a solution. Thinking of this, Yi Qing then bowed and replied:
"Please give me some advice, senior."
