In the following days, Xu Wen practiced during the day, went out to practice ghost training at night, and visited the ghost market once every nine days. He was very regular.
A few months later, as his cultivation gradually approached the peak of Qi Refining Level 1, the Buddha Refining Ghost Flag finally recovered somewhat, no longer a mess of flying catkins, but rather looking like a rag.
On this day, the Heavenly Eye Baoguang Technique had not yet warmed up, but Xu Wen took the initiative to end the practice. Today was the day he and Liu Minghe made an appointment to visit Lu Zhen and others.
It has been several months since they moved out of Qingfeng City, but Lu Zhen and others have still not been able to condense their energy into a method.
The longer the time goes on, the less likely they are to embark on the path of cultivation, and the lower their mood will be.
The two of them always visited at a fixed frequency, but they still felt more and more distant and restricted.
People who are not of the same class, even if they have good intentions, will only turn into charity and pity in the end, making both parties uncomfortable.
After a few times, Xu Wen also noticed that Liu Minghe and Lu Zhen were a little unclear. They were definitely not lovers, but they were definitely more than just friends.
"Junior Brother Guang is busy, so I won't call him from now on!"
On the way, Liu Minghe whispered something, Xu Wen nodded and said no more.
Guang Yutong only went once and then stopped showing up for various reasons. Both of them understood what he meant and stopped calling him.
Entering the shantytown, Xu Wen was still not used to it even though he came every night.
It doesn’t just refer to the dilapidation, there are actually some tall and gorgeous buildings in the shanty towns, but it refers to the atmosphere here, which is decadent, filthy, and full of a sinking feeling.
It seems that if you stay here for a long time, you can't help but fall.
There were bursts of crying and fighting, which was the norm in the shanty town, but both of them changed their expressions. That was where Lu Zhen and the others lived!
Looking at each other, Liu Minghe shouted loudly and rushed forward, heading straight for the fight. Xu Wen made several turns and went around from the side.
During the trip to Qingmaple City, they ate and lived together and fought against wild beasts together for more than half a year. They were all very familiar with each other's fighting methods. Although they did not cooperate for a while, they had a tacit understanding.
He kept flying between the houses, and many people who were watching the excitement quickly dodge when they saw Xu Wen. After he passed by, they eagerly raised their heads again.
After jumping across several houses in succession, he could already hear the sounds of Liu Minghe fighting with his opponent. Xu Wen suddenly drew out his black iron sword.
His heart aspires to the Dao, and he doesn't want to fight with anyone casually, but he must not be ruthless and wise just because he wants the Dao, and let his former friends be bullied without standing up.
In that kind of life, even if you live forever, you are just an ignorant stone man.
From martial arts to Taoism, he was never afraid of fighting.
He quietly rushed into the house that was separated from the battlefield by a wall. He was about to break out the window and catch the opponent off guard, but a strange chill suddenly came from behind.
There was no time to think about how someone could have foreseen the situation and ambush him here in advance. He hurriedly rolled over with his head in his hands, and a bright fireball rubbed his scalp and shot out.
There was a loud noise, and half of the house collapsed.
"Huh!"
A soft cry came, and the other party seemed surprised that he could avoid the blow.
At first glance, there was a familiar smell in the voice.
Without asking the other party's identity, Xu Wen raised his hand and pressed it on the shack. The wood magic power was transmitted along the wooden wall and rushed towards the corner.
A man in black was constantly making secrets, preparing to cast a new spell. A dozen glowing black wooden thorns suddenly grew out of the surrounding wooden boards and stabbed towards him.
If this is stabbed, it will immediately turn into a string.
"Asshole!"
Unexpectedly, Xu Wen reacted so quickly. The man in black cursed angrily, and without bothering to attack Xu Wen, he raised his hand and waved, and a large piece of fire rushed out and hit the wooden thorn.
There were continuous explosions, wooden thorns exploded one after another, and the splashing sparks immediately turned the shack into a sea of fire.
Being able to use fire-attribute spells does not mean that he is not afraid of fire. Some chaotic fire rain even directly ignited the robe of the man in black. He screamed and his mana poured out to extinguish the flames.
The black iron sword in Xu Wen's hand had already shot towards him and pierced his face.
A wolf in front and a tiger in the back, the offense and defense were reversed in a short encounter. As a sneak attack, they were at an absolute disadvantage.
In desperation, he shouted angrily, jumped backwards, smashed the shack with one head, and rushed out of the sea of fire.
Xu Wen pinched the magic formula repeatedly, raised his hand suddenly, and four wood-attribute magic powers surged out, instantly turning into four fireballs, chasing after him in a hurry.
If it weren't for the fact that his Qinghuang Kung Fu is a wood-attributed technique, and there is a gap between turning wood into fire, he would have killed the opponent directly in one blow.
Unable to escape, and about to be blown to pieces, the man in black was so frightened that he let out a piercing scream and hurriedly raised his hand to sacrifice a spiritual talisman.
Bright rainbow light surged out and turned into an illusory shield, blocking his way.
The four fireballs smashed down hard, shattering the rainbow shield, but the man in black managed to get a chance to survive and took several steps back to avoid the aftermath.
Following the fireball and rushing out of the sea of fire, Xu Wen was about to continue attacking when the Buddha Liangui Banner suddenly felt agitated.
The other party has an ambush, and it's a ghost!
Shocked in his heart, Xu Wen raised his hand and pointed his fingers, and more than a dozen magic powers were shot out in all directions.
A black shadow suddenly appeared behind him, but the mana shot did not cause any harm to him and continued to scream and rush towards him.
At the same time, the man in black threw out a magic talisman.
The spiritual talisman burned up in the air and instantly turned into a cold blade of light, striking Xu Wen directly. It turned out to be a first-level mid-grade spiritual talisman.
Attacking from the front and back, the opponent will definitely die, and the man in black couldn't help laughing.
Looking at the sharp sword light, Xu Wen's face was extremely solemn.
He was only at the first level of Qi refining, so he would never be able to block this sword light, not to mention the ghosts coming towards him.
Feeling cruel in his heart, he suddenly raised his hand, the Buddha's Ghost Refining Flag flew out quietly, and the evil ghost jumped out of the flag.
But instead of rushing towards the evil ghost behind him, he faced the sword directly.
The evil ghost had a reluctance on his face, obviously not wanting to fight against the light of the sword, but the Buddha's Ghost Refining Flag was in Xu Wen's hands, so he had to obey.
When the sword light reached his body, he suddenly opened his mouth and swallowed the sharp sword light in one gulp.
Sword energy rushed out from all over his body, as if it would tear him into pieces in an instant. The evil ghost's figure quickly faded, as if it might disappear at any time.
The banner of the Buddha's Demonic Banner also made a series of "stabbing" sounds. The banner, which had already recovered to some appearance, once again turned into a broken wadding, even worse than when it was acquired.
But after all, the light of the sword failed to break through the evil spirit's final defense, and the banner stopped at the moment before it was completely destroyed.
"This...this is impossible?"
Staring in stunned silence, the man in black screamed in disbelief.
His was a first-level middle-grade golden sword talisman. How could it block a flag that was thrown into the garbage and no one picked it up? How could Xu Wen, who was at the first level of Qi Refining, have such a treasure?
"Nothing is impossible, Qiu Yunsheng!"
A faint cyan light shone on the black iron sword, and more than a dozen swords were fired to scatter the ghosts. Xu Wen slowly turned around, stared at the man in black and shouted coldly.
