In the middle of the night, a cool breeze blows from the vast waters, bringing a sense of silence to the strangeness of Tiangang Island.

Fu Xuanxing sat quietly among a group of cousins.

During the wake for his grandfather, he struggled to recall the memory he had lost.

But this time passed, and he still couldn't remember how he met his grandfather in the afternoon.

What happened after entering Tiankui Pavilion. He couldn't remember it at all.

The only thing I can recall completely is that after Fu Henghua entered the Yangxin Hall, he and Fang Dongyuan were chatting outside.

"Who on earth can take away the memories of me and my adopted brother without even realizing it?"

Fu Xuanxing lowered his head and thought hard, but he didn't know that a colorful poisonous spider was slowly crawling on the beam above his head.

Green claw spider.

One of the most poisonous demon spiders in Donglai Shenzhou. One of the seven spider mothers in Yizhou, her true appearance is this kind.

The poisonous spider concealed its aura, and no one in the hall noticed it. It approached Fu Xuanxing quietly, spitting out poisonous threads bit by bit.



"Brother Fang, it's as you said. They did take action."

Fang Dongyuan took Hong Changyi and watched him outside.

An Jingcheng glanced here and continued drinking tea with other guests.

The guests gathered together not to keep vigil for the Master of the Fu family, but because a Nascent Soul Grandmaster died on the island for no apparent reason. Everyone was in panic, and the Fu family refused to allow the guests to leave at this time on the grounds that the matter had not been clarified.

To avoid being tricked, comrades from all walks of life gathered together to protect themselves.

After all, we are all monks, so it is normal to go without eating, drinking or sleeping for several days. Simply get together to chat and discuss Taoism.

Hong Changyi and Fu Xuanxing are also old friends. Hearing that Fu Xuanxing was in an awkward situation in the Fu family and that his cousins ​​might secretly create difficulties, he responded to Fang Dongyuan's request and helped protect him together.

Spotting a poisonous spider on the beam, when Hong Changyi was about to do something, Fang Dongyuan held his wrist and shook his head gently.

"Those people have done bad things, so of course they will be punished!"

He drew circles with his fingers and secretly cast a spell, and the poisonous spider on the beam was wrapped in purple air. The next moment, it is forcibly returned to its owner.

The Fu family disciple shook his shoulders and looked around quickly. Several brothers nearby also realized that something was wrong, and they all adjusted their postures and pretended that nothing happened.

At this moment, the poisonous spider suddenly went crazy and bit the owner's palm fiercely.

"ah--"

The man jumped up in pain and quickly shook off the poisonous spider from his palm.

"Brother, hurry up, help me take the antidote in my arms."

The poison spread from the palms of the hands, and most of the body was numb.

The brothers nearby knew how ferocious the "Green Clawed Golden Spider" was and quickly gave him medicine.

But just as he put his hand into his robe to get the medicine, the brother who was taking the medicine also let out a scream. A hundred-legged centipede covered with fire patterns emerged from his arms, and then the poison bag fell to the ground, and dense poisonous insects crawled on several people around him.

"Everyone, be careful!"

"Lao Ba, why did your poison bag break?"

The screams continued, and the uninformed Fu family disciples beside them quickly got up and dodge.

"quiet!"

The older brothers who were keeping watch in front stood up one after another and saw a small hole in the poison bag, with poisonous insects crawling out of it.

Fu Danyu's eyes narrowed: "Who allowed you to take the Poison Bag to the mourning hall?"

Death of the body is yin, and poisonous insects are also yin.

According to Feng Shui, poisons should not come into contact with the corpse to avoid conflict between Yin and Qi.

"I--"

The Fu family wanted to explain, but the poison eroded the five internal organs, and he couldn't even finish his words at the moment.

He was trembling all over, and the brother next to him quickly fed him the elixir.

However--

"No, it's impossible. How could my Jade Spirit Pill be ineffective?"

The young man's eyes were horrified, and he felt that the poison was eroding his heart veins bit by bit.

In the past, I was accidentally bitten by poisonous insects, but it was always

Use this elixir for treatment!

After Fu Danyu and several brothers nearby gave instructions, everyone worked together to mobilize the strong wind to collect the poisonous insects.

Picking up the torn poison bag again, Fu Danyu snorted loudly: "Is this how your Tianan Pavilion keeps vigil for your grandfather?"

"Brother, considering this is his first offender."

"First offender? Why, he plans to do it a second time? My grandfather buried his soul, is it possible that he can do it a second time?"

The movement in the mourning hall attracted the attention of guests outside.

Fu Danyu didn't want to make any publicity, so he sent everyone in Tiannan Pavilion to put away the bag of poisons and carry the young man back to detoxify.

Hong Changyi and Fang Dongyuan hid in the darkness and saw Fu Xuanxing glance at the group of people in Tiannan Pavilion, and then continued to kneel quietly.

"This kid is really heartless. It's hard for us to protect him secretly - but Brother Fang is very ruthless. Are those people okay?"

"no."

Fang Dongyuan stared at Liuli Cover.

While everyone was panicking to deal with the poisonous insects, a crystal butterfly flew silently into the glass cover and inspected the body of the head of the Fu family.

"That girl, even if you vent your anger on Fu Xuanxing, you don't have to be so cruel."

Fu Tongjun is good at Gu. When Tian An Pavilion planned to use poisonous spiders to assassinate Fu Xuanxing, he took the control of the poisonous spiders first and backfired on its master.

In addition, she took advantage of the man's panic and put her own poison into his arms, biting open the Poison Bag, causing a commotion among the Poisons.

When everyone was paying attention to the poisonous insects causing trouble, Fu Tongjun successfully obtained a little bit of the Fu family master's sebum from the glass cover.

Fang Dongyuan asked Hong Changyi to continue watching, and he chased Jingdie to Liuyuntai.

Liuyuntai at night is even more charming than during the day.

Fireflies dance in the fog, like dim lights.

On the high platform, the "man" put away the crystal butterfly and carefully held up the "sebum" with a chip as thin as a cicada's wings. Then a one-eyed toad jumped onto his shoulder, connecting his vision with Mr. Futong.

In the one-eyed Yin Toad's field of vision, the sebum gradually enlarged, and densely packed Tiangang runes appeared.

This is the secret inside the monk.

This is also what Fu Tongjun has concluded from studying the human body for many years.

Some regularly arranged structures can be seen in the sebum of mortals, but there are no "Dao Runes" in their bodies.

Only when practitioners refine their bodies step by step, mana baptizes the body, and "traces of the Tao" appear on the body, will "talismans" emerge one after another in the tiny structures of the human body.

Through the Tao runes, one can understand the monk's own Tao.

"Judging from the amount of Tao Yun and the intensity of sebum..."

The tentacles of the crystal butterfly have been broken off. Obviously, it is not easy to intercept the sebum from a master.

"How's your check going?"

Fang Dongyuan walked up to Liuyuntai in the evening breeze, looked at "Fu Xiangfeng" and said, "You played your third brother, what did you find out?"

Seeing Fang Dongyuan, Mr. Fu Tong was not surprised: "I can be sure that the person in the glass cover is indeed the head of the Fu family."

"So, do you rule out the possibility of suspended animation?"

"From this sebum observation, the Tao Yun on his body is gradually heading towards death. It means that he is indeed dead."

"Just dying gradually? Didn't he die during the day?"

"The monk's physical body is full of vitality, unless the life span is over. Otherwise, in the state of sudden death, the Tao charm contained in the physical body will dissipate little by little. This process will last for a period of time - you know that if you put the fish and shrimp in the pot for cooking just after they die, the body will still be Beating, right? Similar principle."

The soul leaves the body, the heart stops, and the brain stops functioning.

However, the remaining vitality of the physical body still maintains the activity of the "Dao Rune". Only when all the vitality disappears will the runes of the avenue become silent. But the physical body at this time is still incorruptible.

This is also the reason why many monks' bodies remain incorruptible for hundreds or thousands of years after their death - the Tao in their bodies still exists.

Only if the avenue runes further collapse, destroy, and eventually become nothing, will the monk's body disappear completely. This process takes hundreds or thousands of years.

"Henghua used 'Huan Yang Seal' to ensure the Taoist charm

Immortal, the vitality still maintains the operation of the avenue. "

Fu Tongjun explained while thinking.

The life force in Master Fu's body drained much slower than she expected.

In addition to the Yang-Returning Seal specially created by Fu Henghua, maybe the "Blood Demon Slash" also helped the Fu family master slow down the loss of vitality due to an accidental collision?

In this case, as long as the coffin is properly sealed within seven days, the physical body can still retain a large part of the mana and vitality.

"That guy made a blind move—hey, he just got himself under suspicion."

Fang Dongyuan shook his head when he thought about returning Yangyin.

If he destroyed the first scene, everyone would be suspicious of him.

Thanks to the protection of the "Spiritual Tribulation Cave", everyone in the Fu family did not dare to push too hard.

"Tell me, was it accidental or intentional that he destroyed the scene?"

"It doesn't matter, I will find the truth anyway. Just in time, you are here——"

Fu Tongjun mentioned something instead.

"I'm looking for the four pillars of the Four Elephant Square. If you have nothing to do, please help me."

"Four Symbols and Four Directions - is it really banned? No wonder I can't use the art of returning to the past. What's the range?"

"The entire Tiankui Pavilion," Fu Tongjun stamped his feet, "I drew a circle and searched within this circle. I found that Liuyuntai happened to be one of them."

Fang Dongyuan closed his eyes, and a golden mark appeared on the Yintang point on his forehead.

Like a spiritual eye, the golden light scanned the entire Liuyuntai.

"Nothing. I don't see anything unusual here—wait!"

Fang Dongyuan observed carefully for a while and said to Lord Fu Tong: "Do you have any spiritual energy-eating Gu on hand? Eat the clouds and spiritual energy attached to Liuyuntai. There may be something underground here."

After some tinkering, the two found three formation disks for hiding and covering from the base of Liuyuntai, as well as a white jade amber set in the center of the triple formation disk.

Seeing this tiger-shaped jade article, Fang Dongyuan had a subtle expression.

"This thing is not something today." He had seen similar things among his father's belongings.

Mr. Futong subconsciously said: "The ritual of Dragon Residence."

Dongfang Yunqi has been collecting information on the Divine Vein Civilization over the years and discovered that that civilization has a special sacrificial rule.

Qinggui stands in the east, Baihu stands in the west, Chizhang stands in the south, and Xuanhuang stands in the north. Coupled with the yellow jade cong, it coincides with the etiquette of the five directions and five elements.

"Since Liuyuntai has this, it should also be available in the other three places. Let's go look for it. If the formation is lifted, at least we can use the Shuoshuo Technique to explore what happened during the day."

The two took action.

Soon, a red seal was dug out from a pile of rocks in the south.

But the remaining two items have not been found.

When the sky lights up, Fang Dongyuan goes back to meet Fu Xuanxing, and Fu Tongjun continues to walk around Tiankui Pavilion.

"The person who made the secret plan was too strict in hiding."

Fu Tongjun thought about following the "positive angle and moment phase" to draw the positions of the other two points. After calculation, it was found that the other two points did not match at all.

Suddenly, a Gu insect flew over from a distance.

She quickly looked up. The morning light was shining on the mountain path, and there were cries one after another in the forest.

Three figures are heading towards Guantian Cliff along the Tiangang Star Road.

"Why did they get out?"

Fu Tongjun immediately changed back to his original appearance.

Although it is inconvenient, it is better than making a "real and fake Fu Xiangfeng" incident.



On the jade steps of Tiangang Pavilion, Fu Henghua, Fu Xiangfeng and Fu Yaozhen were strolling forward.

The Jade Star Road depicts various constellations and stars, and Fu Yaozhen is quite immersed in seeing them.

Sudden--

Henghua stopped, stamped his feet and looked down the mountain.

"What's wrong?"

Fu Xiangfeng, who was clearing the way in front, turned around.

"I saw an acquaintance land on the island."

"Is there anyone else coming at this time? The Fu family also

Are you willing to let people in? "

Fu Xiangfeng looked toward the ferry, and was stunned when he saw a merchant ship.

"Isn't this - Yulei Trading Company? Are they related to the Fu family?"

"All the acquaintances gathered together."

Fu Henghua cooed and pulled his brother and sister to the "Guantian Cliff" behind Tiangang Pavilion.

This is one of the famous sights of Tiangang Island, and it was also the first shooting stop for Zhu Yumei and his wife after landing on the island.

When the sun rises in the east, standing on the Guantian Cliff you can see a few fishing boats sailing on the water.

Rumor has it that the previous generation of the Fu family head watched the stars here and evolved a Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Formation.

Watching the sunrise here, Fu Xiangfeng was a little disappointed.

Compared to my own Panlong Island, this place is far away from the East China Sea.

With the cold wind blowing, he asked his younger brother beside him: "Xiao Liu'er, what do you want to do if you have to drag us out?"

"Early this morning, I felt that I had an opportunity on Tiangang Island, which might be related to my future enlightenment."

fraud.

Fu Xiangfeng and Fu Yaozhen looked at each other with disdain.

At first, the two didn't believe it.

But looking at Fu Henghua's extremely serious eyes and using the Shenluo Heavenly Book to calculate the fortunes of everyone on Tiangang Island, the two of them gradually became shaken.

Fu Yaozhen raised his eyebrows and asked, "The path? Which path?"

"Nature is the avenue of creation. I can feel that there is something here that will help me."

Good fortune?

Fu Yaozhen felt a little at ease.

"Otherwise, for me, this is the only way to enlightenment, right?"

That's not necessarily the case.

Fu Yaozhen thought silently.

Which of your weird ideas didn't work?

Of course, Fu Yaozhen has never seen the future of the Avenue of Creation.

Because the path of the Heavenly Book of Creation is far more difficult than the easy and quick path of the Demon Emperor or the brutal and terrifying Evil Emperor. She waited and looked at various futures. Even in the future where others became Demon Emperors, Fu Henghua still existed and was walking on the right path of the Immortal Family, but there was no path through the "Book of Creation".

The Taixuan Sect Master has it, the descendants of the Purple Emperor have it, the self-opened Earth Evil Dao Tong has it, the Five Elements Dao has it, and the "Yitian Bajishu" has inherited it, but there is no Creation Dao.

Henghua looked down the mountain, and the steward Fu Longnian went to the ferry to greet Yin Yanqing in person.

He suddenly asked: "Third Brother, Sister, do you think the person who killed Senior Fu is still on the island?"

Fu Yaozhen immediately said: "The Fu family has sealed the water area, so it is logical that they can't escape. But since the masters are dead, they may have managed to break through the Tiangang Star Realm and leave. In short, it has nothing to do with us, you just stay calm and let Fu Yaozhen Tong-kun, go check it out. If you find it, you’ll be happy. If you can’t find it, it’s destiny.”

Henghua looked at the sky.

A light mask between the tangible and the intangible covers the entire Tiangang Island and nearby waters.

As soon as he learned of the death of the Fu family leader, the Tianxian Pavilion Master ordered people to open the "Star Boundary".

"Tiangang Star Realm" is analogous to the "Spirit Realm Techniques" of various schools in the Yanlong East Region.

Taking the Thirty-Six Stars Pavilion on Tiangang Island as its source, a Tiangang Dao Domain is spread across thousands of miles of water.

Within the scope of this Dao Domain, Fu Henghua cannot escape easily.

Therefore, Fu Yunrou secretly sent everyone off the island in return.

Henghua secretly thought: Even though that person is proficient in the art of Tiangang, his Taoism is far better than mine. But if you want to escape from the "Tiangang Star Realm" silently, I'm afraid it won't be enough. In terms of defensive power alone, the star realm is no less than a spell cast by a Tribulation Immortal.

This is the accumulation of thousands of years of spiritual power on Tiangang Island and the foundation of the Fu family. Henghua estimated that even if his grandfather came, he would not be able to break it.

Fu Xiangfeng agreed with Fu Yaozhen's words and said, "Don't bother, let Mr. Tong investigate. What we can do at the moment is to ensure that the Fu family can transition as smoothly as possible. After all, the Fu family has a population of one million, and most of them are Innocent people."

Hearing the hidden meaning of Fu Xiangfeng's words, Henghua immediately turned to Fu Yaozhen.

"Look, you are still trying to stop me. I think you should pay more attention to the third brother. His temper, I'm afraid if you have to get involved,

Take care of the Fu family's housework. What, can you prevent the civil war in the Fu family, or do you plan to support Fu Xuanxing as the head of the family? "

Looking at the eyes of his younger brothers and sisters, he looked towards the back of Tiangang Island.

The star pavilions are towering and shining brightly.

"Didn't you hear it at night? There was crying over there."

Crying?

The younger siblings looked at each other.

Illusion?

Has he been tricked?

Someone set him up?

Just guessing?

The two of them made eye contact, only to hear Fu Xiangfeng continue: "I was meditating and suddenly saw the scene of three Yuanying masters fighting, and the Fu family was bleeding like a river.

"At first, I thought it was because of inner demons, but after careful inspection, I found that someone should have used the technique of 'heart seal' to send a message to me.

"In that scene, I saw that except for the Fu family, all the servants and islanders on the island died violent deaths. I have been on the island for a few days and I have not seen any mortals on Tiangang Island. Logically speaking, such a huge island Population, it is impossible for them not to support mortals to serve them.”

"..."

The two understood what Fu Xiangfeng was talking about.

The mortals on Tiangang Island died, and more than once.

Therefore, the Fu family currently does not place mortals on Tiangang Island to avoid the third destruction.

"Third brother thinks that someone has let you see the Fu family's experience in the previous civil war and hopes that you will come forward to prevent the third civil war?"

"Maybe? But maybe it's just me who's having a whim. Sister, keep an eye on this kid. I'm going to take a look inside the depths of Tiangang Island in the next few days."

They both frowned.

Fu Yaozhen hesitated to speak, but Henghua laughed:

"Go, since Third Brother wants to do it, then go ahead."

Henghua immediately raised his hand to draw talismans and seals to protect Fu Xiangfeng.

Seeing this, Fu Yaozhen also played the zither and played music to bless Fu Xiangfeng.

What lies deep in Tiangang Island?

It may not be people who call Fu Xiangfeng to stop the civil war. However, if it is really the person he guessed, the third brother is actually a chance.

Although Fu Yaozhen was dissatisfied, he acquiesced to Fu Xiangfeng's actions.

In all the futures she glimpsed, the third brother's choice was always the same: to act as a hero and uphold the right path.

This is the way he practices. Not to mention the two of them, even in that kind of future, countless calamities and disasters cannot stop him.

Even if the Demon Emperor comes in person and threatens him with his life, he will only choose to sacrifice his life to defend his way.

Although there are thousands of people, I will go.



At the urging of his younger brothers and sisters, Fu Xiangfeng turned into a gust of wind and flew into the mountains.

Fu Yaozhen sighed: "None of you can worry."

"A man who went to the Golden Saint Palace to cause divine punishment has the right to criticize us? Look at me, I'm such a good boy and I've never taken the initiative to provoke my enemies."

Fu Yaozhen subconsciously retorted, but thought about it carefully.

It seems that Fu Henghua really doesn't have any enemies outside.

Those who spied on his life were either responsible for the debts left by his parents, or other people implicated Fu Henghua. He himself seemed to be in no trouble.

Even if someone came to provoke him, most of them were turned into friends by Heng Hua and became harmonious.

"Tell me, what's the current situation of the totem spirit?"

"The situation is not good, but since we can summon Third Brother for help, we should still have some strength left."

Seeing Fu Yaozhen's disapproving eyes, Henghua explained: "It's useless for you to stop me. The third brother's way is just like that of his grandfather. There are some things that, now that he has seen them, forced him not to touch them. Obstruct the Taoist mind.

"Anyway, you and I are here, and nothing will happen to Third Brother. Even if he dies, I can bring him back."

Looking at the wind that had dissipated, Henghua said with emotion: "The third brother's righteousness is sometimes the focus of trouble."

Seeing such an upright person, "someone" is naturally willing to take a gamble.

"However, it is precisely his character and style that allows him to accumulate such righteousness."
