This valley is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with only a valley entrance directly east of it accessible. But having said that, there are demons who can penetrate mountains with diamonds, and they have already dug a passage to the north.
This road was very hidden, and only a dozen demon clans living around it knew that the two little demons were of low cultivation and were unwilling to be cannon fodder for the Crane Demon General, so they fled.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they escaped, they met Io and Miya, and they had to go back again.
There is a cave in the bushes on the side of the mountain. It is very narrow. Fortunately, Io and Muya are not very tall, so they can enter smoothly. The two little demons led the way one after another. After walking for a long time, light appeared in front of them.
The four little demons came out, and in front of them were wooden houses. Although these monsters are not in the outer realm, they have also learned the skills of humans in building houses, but there are no monsters living in these houses at the moment.
A little demon said: "We are all demon people with little fighting power. We are just cannon fodder in a war. So when we heard that we were going to fight with other demon generals, everyone ran away. Only the two of us left last."
Yiwei didn't say anything, jumped up on the big tree next to him, and looked down. It turned out that there were many monsters living on the hillside to the north of them, but they were at the top, so no one noticed them. leave.
The two little demons begged Muye: "Sir, we have taken the road with us. You should fulfill your promise and let us go, right?"
Kiya asked Io: "What should I do?"
Io jumped down and said, "It's just right. You guys can live here. The two of us are your neighbors, so there won't be any flaws."
When the two little demons heard this, they sighed. Sure enough, they were in Meow's mouth and couldn't help themselves. …
But he said that Yau and Guang had been guarding the entrance of the valley. Yau frowned and said, "Xiaoguang, how should we get in?"
Xiaoguang said: "Let's see and then talk."
Not long after, I saw some monsters coming from outside the valley, each holding a Taoist weapon and not knowing what to do.
Xiaoguang had an idea, transformed into an owl and flew to the road aside. A big man with a tiger head came right in front of him, holding a big knife, he looked so mighty.
Xiaoguang immediately stepped forward and asked, "Brother Hu Dao, where are you going?"
The tiger demon said: "The crane demon in the valley is recruiting troops, and I'm here to join him."
"Recruiting troops for what purpose?"
"Of course it's to fight for territory. Cultivation cannot be separated from the treasures of heaven, materials and earth. The bigger the territory, the more likely you are to find good things. Didn't you go to join the Crane Demon General?"
Xiaoguang immediately said: "My friends and I also want to go, but Wuyao recommended us."
"What are you afraid of? I am a demon soldier. If I go, I can give some demon people to us. He, the crane demon general, can't ask the demon general for help. Demon soldiers like me are the demons he values. You and your friends Just follow me and I will ensure that you all have a good future."
"That's great. My friends and I will join Brother Dao."
So Xiaoguang called Yabu and entered the valley with the tiger demon. As expected, the tiger demon was arranged to become the small leader of the demon army. Each person was assigned more than twenty demon people. Xiaoguang and Yabu are also divided in it.
Zuo asked worriedly: "Aren't we here to find Xiao Wu? Why are we here to serve as soldiers for others?"
"Don't worry, let's sneak in first. If Xiao Wu isn't here, we can all leave later."
"But……"
"It's not that much, but don't worry when I'm here. Let's go out with two excuses later and search in this valley, or ask other monsters. Don't show fear. If If exposed, our fun will be over!”…
Dagui and Taro outside the valley have not yet entered. Taro said: "It would be great if there was a hole in this valley for us to crawl into."
"Yeah! Make a hole!"
Dagui said happily: "You are right, Taro, we can dig a hole and get in."
"well?"
As he spoke, Dagui took the taro and ran to the south of the mountain. However, he saw Dagui transform into a squirrel: "I am a squirrel and you are a rabbit. We are both born to dig holes. Let's open one ourselves." The road is fine!"
"Yes, you are still smart, Dagui."
Taro also turned into a big snow-white rabbit, and dug a hole in the mountain with Dagui. The two of them cultivated into Qingyou Realm, and it was estimated that it would take a day to open a mountain road. …
The last two people, Shanjie and Younian, were climbing on the west mountain. On all sides of the valley, only the west slope was the gentlest and could be climbed.
Younian is a monkey, so he wanders around in the woods very smoothly. However, it is very difficult for Shansuke to follow Younian. He is always left far behind, and he has to listen to Younian scolding: "They may have already I’m going into the valley, don’t hold me back!”
Shansuke: "..."
The two walked all day, and at night they arrived at the top of the mountain. Shanjie said: "Fortunately, there is no protective formation here, otherwise our efforts would have been wasted."
Younian said: "I think it's better to think about how to get down first. It's too high here and there are no roads. I'm afraid it won't be easy to get there."
Shansuke looked around, pointed in one direction and said, "There is a path there, and there are no houses at the foot of the mountain. It's safe to walk from there."
"Follow me quickly!"
Unexpectedly, Younian had already run far away, and Shanjie had no choice but to catch up. …
Next to a stream outside the valley, Ye Ling was sitting cross-legged in meditation, while Teng Yun and Xing Yan were actually protecting him.
When the moon was in the sky, Ye Ling slowly opened his eyes.
As the name suggests, the realm of immortality means truly stepping into the ranks of immortals. The Nascent Soul is formed in the Dantian, and even if the body is destroyed, it can be reborn a second time.
However, in the realm of immortality, the immortality of the Nascent Soul is only in the early stage. In the middle stage, the body is immortal, and in the later stage, the consciousness is immortal.
The immortality of the body is the strengthening of the Tao body. It still uses the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to temper one's Tao body. This is a long process that requires a large amount of spiritual stones to pile up. Some people even refine the body for more than a thousand years before it is completed.
However, pursuing the perfection of the Taoist body is not the only way for monks. Some monks do not put much effort into the physical training of the Immortal Realm, but directly enter the later stage of spiritual consciousness training.
Divine consciousness has always been understood by Ye Ling as spiritual power, which contains many complicated things that are endless. The cultivation of spiritual consciousness relies on understanding and experience.
Talent is by no means a gap that can be easily bridged. Just like a fish has fins, but it is difficult to grasp like a hand. No matter how hard you try, it will be difficult to bridge this gap.
In addition, it is the experience of life and the perception of worldly affairs, just like the observation of heaven and earth. Human consciousness is constantly changing in one moment and one thing. Therefore, many monks in the Immortal Realm will become ordinary people again and spend "life after life" in the mortal world in order to seek enlightenment.
This kind of practice is very mysterious and makes people feel a little confused about the path. Everyone has different understanding of heaven and earth, so it is very difficult for monks to live in the Immortal Realm.
Many people are unable to enter the realm of celestial phenomena throughout their lives, and unfortunately end up transforming into Taoism.
When the spiritual consciousness reaches enlightenment, it can activate the Nascent Soul to evolve the celestial phenomena, transform Tao into reality, and law the heavens and the earth. This is the sign of the celestial realm.
Ye Ling meditated for a while, but he couldn't calm down. After all, those little demons went to the valley alone, which made him a little worried.
Ye Ling's consciousness covered a radius of dozens of miles, but no trace of Huanlong and Bi Kong was found. This meant that the two of them did not return to the original place to search after being lured away by the puppet. .
Ye Ling relied on luck this time to get rid of the two demon kings.
He stood up, and Xingyan and Teng Yun came over immediately: "Master, you are finally up."
"What's up?"
"It has been peaceful during your meditation practice, but some monsters are going to the valley one after another, and some are leaving. I don't know what they are going to do."
"I know," Ye Ling said with a smile, "Looking at the time, the eight of them should have sneaked into the valley. Let's go and have a look."
"Why don't you wait here for them to come back? Maybe Xiaowu is not in that valley, and we have to look elsewhere."
Ye Ling waved his hand and said, "I checked carefully. If Xiao Wu goes down the river,
The furthest you can go overnight is around here. If he had joined us along the river, he would have met us long ago, which means that he went in another direction. Within a few dozen miles of this place, there is only one place where monsters gather. Based on Xiao Wu's temperament, he will definitely join in the fun, otherwise there is no need for me to let Shan Jie and the others go to the valley. "
Only then did Teng Yun and Xing Yan realize what was going on.
"Then how do we get into the valley?"
"We don't have to go in, just wait for them to come out."...
In the stone hall of the valley, the Crane Demon General, the Dog Demon General and later the Bear Demon General were sitting in line. The bear demon general looked arrogant: "Why do you value that turtle demon so much?"
The crane demon general said: "You should also use your brain more to be able to transform into a complete human form when you are a demon soldier, but your bloodline is ordinary? The three of us are already demon generals, but we can't be perfect. I'm afraid what ethnic group he is? Even if the younger generation here can’t help, they can’t offend him to avoid causing trouble.”
"Forget it, you are smart, I don't have time to think about these messy things. Now that the three of us are here, no matter how many demon soldiers and demon people are gathered, they are just cannon fodder. When are we going to find that white crane?"
The Crane Demon General said: "Tomorrow morning, let's let these demon people and demon soldiers consume a wave first. We will be much more sure when we get there."
The dog demon general said: "If the white crane is as powerful as you say, the three of us must be careful."
The bear demon said nonchalantly: "You are too careful. To tell you the truth, I am about to enter the realm of Demon Commander. By then, let alone one white crane, even ten white cranes will not be my opponent!"
After that, the Bear Demon General stood up and left, leaving the Crane Demon General and the Dog Demon General looking at each other with something else in mind.
After a night of silence, Muya stood on the hillside in the early morning of the next day and saw the demon clan starting to gather under the valley. He hurriedly woke up Io, who was still sleeping soundly: "Io, the demon clan below the mountain seems to be setting off. "
Io rubbed his sleepy eyes and Kiya came to the hillside. The two little demons at the bottom of the mountain ran up quickly: "The crane demon general has summoned the demon people and demon soldiers in the valley and is going to conquer the white cranes in the swamp!"
"Io, what should we do?"
Yiwei yawned and said, "Of course I will wait for them to set off and then follow them. Are we really going to fight with them?"
After hearing this, the two little demons secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least they didn't have to die before the battle.
While talking, Muya looked towards the hillside to the west and suddenly said: "Those two figures look so familiar, they seem to be Shansuke and Younian!"
Yiwei leaned on the tree next to him and said lazily: "They must have come over the mountain. Such a long journey is really hard."
"Should you call them over?"
"Sansuke won't have the same idea as me. If I call him here, I'm afraid that the two of us will have to run around with them. It's better to let me have a good rest. It's best if they find Xiao Wu, so that we can It saves effort."
Kiye: "…………"
