During his years in the mountains, Bai Ze began to practice secret arts. Practicing the golden light in the morning and transforming into a dragon in the evening temporarily put aside the cultivation of the Soul Self of the Four Realms and the Way of the Sword.
The four supreme realms are the three smaller realms: human beings are respected without confusion, world-respected souls are me, and gods are respected in caves and mysteries. Now Bai Ze has reached the state of non-confusion, and his soul mirror is clear, reflecting his true self. In the Dongxuan Realm, he also refined the Six Paths of Cave Heaven, and his understanding of the avenues became clearer.
The soul self realm is to cultivate the Yang Shen, awaken the "I" in the never-confused soul mirror, and cast the Yang Shen soul self.
Occasionally, in his spare time, Bai Ze would go to the Four Extremes Secret Realm to pay a visit to the Supreme Elder Dai Yongde, and further understand the ultimate in the Immortal Sect, the Six Armor Secret Blessing.
Time passes, autumn passes and winter comes. When the first snow fell, the master and the fifth senior brother had not returned. The second senior brother only received a paper crane letter. Tao Hongjing briefly mentioned the recent situation in it, saying that the fifth brother's condition seemed to have improved, but he didn't know why. , and still failed to transform.
In the letter, Master asked about the recent situation of each disciple, and specifically told Lin Xiao to pay more attention to Xiao Liu's practice and not to be lazy all the time. He also said that the fourth child was too obsessed with kendo, so he still needed to go down the mountain for more walks. The third child's character is too strong and he must do his best in everything. He must also pay more attention to it, so as not to delay his cultivation. The letter mentioned Lao Qi but didn't say much. He just said that Bai Ze was a sensible person and didn't need to worry about anything. He only asked Lin Xiao to take care of his precious disciple.
Tao Hongjing repeatedly warned that Lao Qi was a restless master and could not stay anywhere, so he must not make his disciples miserable, so he asked Lin Xiao to take the time to teach Jian Xi how to read, read, and cultivate his character.
Finally, he talked about the boss. He just said that there should be such a difficulty in the boss's life, so that Lin Xiao did not have to worry. When the time came, he would naturally be able to turn the disaster into a good one.
That letter was just ordinary words, and the parents were short-tempered and nagging a lot. When Bai Ze read the letter, he knew that Master and Fifth Brother would not come back at the end of the year. He felt sad but also felt very warm.
Perhaps in Master's eyes, among them, only Second Senior Brother is the most reassuring to Master. The eldest brother is away, so the second brother takes on the responsibility of being both father and mother.
On this day, heavy snow fell on the northern border, and the sky and the earth were completely white. In the middle of the mountains and rivers, it is very lively. Early in the morning, Lin Xiao called a group of junior sisters and junior brothers to Shanshui Residence to celebrate Bai Ze's birthday.
What's even more rare is that Lin Xiao somehow managed to steal someone from that piece of shit Lu Chen. On this day, the third senior sister also returned to Zuowang Peak, personally dug out the plum blossom wine from her small courtyard, and took it to Shanshui Juyao with her brother. The sisters got drunk and then stopped.
"Lao Bai, Lao Bai!" Fang Sheng ran to Shanshui Residence early in the morning, shouting, "Come and pick up the guests, let's see what I bring you, hahaha, your favorite roast goose and roast duck from Tianxianglou !”
"Hahaha, you understand me!" Bai Ze wore an apron and rolled up the sleeves of his robe. When he heard Fang Sheng's call, he walked out of the door. Only then did he see the tall and sturdy young man in the wind and snow, followed by a group of people. Qin Xiang in purple clothes, Chen Qing, Tang Zhizhi and Princess Changle also came with her.
Fang Sheng held up the food box in his hand and smiled brightly.
Bai Ze hurriedly welcomed everyone in and greeted them one by one.
Fang Sheng rolled up his sleeves, handed the food box to Qin Xiang, bumped Bai Ze's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hey, the birthday girl is cooking in person? Tsk, tsk, it seems that my trip was not in vain, I am in luck!"
"Haha, you are so beautiful." Bai Ze said with a smile, "Why don't you come and help with the cooking?"
"Didn't you see that my sleeves were rolled up?" Fang Sheng laughed and patted his chest, "I'm very conscious of it!"
Xiaoman, who was cooking soup in the courtyard, laughed when he heard this and said, "Young Master insists on cooking the food himself, and there's nothing I can do about it."
"Haha, Miss Xiaoman's craftsmanship is getting better and better. I can smell the fragrance even from a distance." Fang Sheng said with a smile.
Baize smiled.
Lin Xiao and Zhuang Yan, who are now in Shanshui Juli, have long been abstinent, so one can imagine their level of cooking skills. The fourth senior brother was so focused on practicing swordsmanship that he couldn't even cut vegetables without wishing he could tear the kitchen apart with a burst of sword energy. It’s true that Sixth Senior Sister is a foodie, but that’s all she can do. She can only help in the kitchen. If she doesn’t light up the kitchen, it’s already a waste.
However, despite this, the second senior brother was still ordered by the third senior sister to wash the vegetables. Bai Ze saw him clumsy, trying to wash the vegetables until they were crystal clear, and he wanted to laugh.
Seeing this, Qin Xiang laughed at Lin Xiao as he was really a fairy who did not eat fireworks from the world. He called him out and took action himself.
After a while, Qi Yunfeng and Sun Qi also arrived. One after another, some people who were familiar with Bai Ze came to visit from other peaks. However, most of them left gifts, excused themselves from having something to do, and left, agreeing to have a drink with Bai Ze another day.
For a time, Shanshui Residence became lively.
Pei Guoguo took Jian Xi and concentrated on playing with Lu Hao and Zhu Yan. Now that there were more and more people living in the mountains and rivers, they couldn't let them go in the yard, so they ran outside to play.
The four of them, Bai Ze, Fang Sheng, Xiaoman and Sun Qi, were busy in full swing. The mountains and rivers were in the middle. The others were also very familiar with each other and could chat easily.
In the kitchen, Fang Sheng was burying his head in the fire, and Bai Ze was taking charge of the dishes himself. He had nothing to do, so he joked: "Have you and Senior Sister Qin achieved righteous cultivation?"
When Bai Ze asked this question, Fang Sheng's face suddenly turned red and he said, "Where are you? Lao Bai, don't talk nonsense. Senior sister and I are still innocent..."
"I didn't say you were not innocent." Bai Ze turned around and said with a smile, "Why are you so anxious to explain that it seems like there is no silver here."
"I don't have much education, so I can't compete with you." Fang Sheng said, rolled his eyes, and smiled: "Senior sister often said that many fairies in Mengdie Peak will never forget you. Do you want me to ask senior sister to help you set up a connection? ?”
Bai Ze quickly begged for mercy.
The two chatted, inevitably, and mentioned the Great Wall of Despair. Fang Sheng sighed and said: "Wang Han is on the other side of the Great Wall now, and I don't know what's going on there now. Alas, Lao Bai, why do you think this world is in chaos? I always thought that and the wilderness tribe The Yanyue Sect that colluded with us will be wiped out in just two or three months. I didn’t expect this evil sect to be so difficult to deal with.”
Bai Ze was silent.
"Oh, that's right." Fang Sheng suddenly remembered something and said, "Have you heard? There is news from the Great Wall, saying that judging from the current situation, the reason why Su Wen has not returned to the Immortal Sect for so long is extremely It is possible that he is trapped in the extreme northern wilderness beyond the Great Wall."
Bai Ze thought about it and said, "You said so, it is indeed possible."
On this day, it snowed heavily.
The bustle of Shanshuiju lasted until late at night.
In the snow, Bai Ze watched Qin Xiang helping Fang Sheng leave. The boy was still shouting that he and Bai Ze would share the wine.
"Junior brother, we are going back too." Tang Zhizhi was wearing a goose feather cloak, and Princess Changle was wearing a furry hood, covering herself tightly.
"Goodbye, senior sister, go to bed early." Bai Ze said with a smile.
Farewell to his senior brother and sister, Bai Ze shook his head and sighed inwardly that the second senior brother was just a fool and didn't know how to learn from Fang Sheng. He pretended to be drunk and asked the third senior sister to support him while he returned to Shanshui Residence to clean up the mess with Xiaoman. Xiaoman originally disagreed, but he couldn't convince Bai Ze, so he had to give up.
Heavy snow is flying, covering the branches.
In the dead of night, Bai Ze sat cross-legged on the bed, stroking the conch in his hand. The higher his cultivation level, the more he discovered that the conch that Yu Youwei gave him back then was not a mortal thing. The water attribute in it was completely natural, which made the young swordsman who was already close to water feel even more intimate.
When the snow falls, Bai Ze will be eighteen years old.
According to the older generation, this is nineteen years old, very close to being crowned an adult.
Behind the mountains and rivers, there is a large bamboo forest. At this moment, the snow is heavy on the branches, and the sound of firecrackers is constantly ringing in the bamboo forest, crackling, which is particularly awakening in this silent night.
Perhaps the master is right, he is indeed not a master who can live idle.
Bai Ze made up his mind, put away the conch, entered meditation and began to practice the secret technique.
Maybe some things have God's will in them.
Three days later, a group of swords flew back outside the mountain gate, and the leader was none other than Wang Han. Huge news came back from the Great Wall of China. On that day, the bell of Tianzhu Peak rang throughout the Immortal Sect, and all the disciples of the Seven Peaks paid attention.
Immediately, a divine rainbow shot up into the sky from each of the six peaks, heading straight for Tianzhu Peak.
In the middle of the landscape, Bai Ze saw Lin Xiao Yuhong leaving the purple bamboo forest, and he immediately guessed that something big might have happened on the other side of the Great Wall!
The bells of Tianzhu Peak were discussed for a whole day, and this was the end.
Lin Xiao returned to Zuowang Peak and immediately sent a message to all the junior brothers and sisters to gather at the Purple Bamboo Forest. When everyone arrived, they saw the second senior brother's face solemn, knowing that today's Tianzhu Peak meeting, the news brought back by the Sword Master Hall was definitely not a good thing.
Sure enough, Lin Xiao waited for everyone to arrive and said: "The Sword Master brought back news that something happened on the Great Wall in a desperate situation. A saint participated in the battle. The wasteland tribes have killed the Great Wall several times. Now the border war situation is tight and we need help."
"What?" Bai Ze was surprised, "The Wasteland Tribe has already killed the Great Wall?!"
"Yes." Lin Xiao said in a heavy tone, "This matter is too weird. The Great Wall of Despair, called the Great Wall of Despair, means that it is an insurmountable natural chasm that isolates the Far North Wasteland from the territories of the Seven Kingdoms. Since it was built, it has been , it has been more than six hundred years, and has never been breached."
"The foundation of the Great Wall is inlaid with a large number of spirit-suppressing stones. Six hundred years ago, our Immortal Sect and the Confucian Sect Jixia Academy jointly set up a sky-shattering formation. Logically speaking, even if a saint takes action, it will be difficult to shake the Great Wall. Lin Xiao continued, "Now the section of the Great Wall on the border of the Wei Kingdom has been breached. The tribes in the wilderness braved the blizzard to march south to invade. The Wei Kingdom used all its strength to resist the barbarians from the north. In the eastern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, General Zhendong has led the king's order to rush for reinforcements. , the Immortal Sect has issued an order to all the sects in the north today, and the swords are marching northward to push the barbarians back beyond the border, and they must regain the lost territory of the Great Wall."
"Did the Yanyue Sect also intervene in this?" Bai Ze realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Zhijian Tang brought back news that the wasteland tribes collectively launched a large-scale war, and the forces on the mountain behind it. What has been found so far is that in addition to the Yanyue Sect, there is also a mountain force named Xuantian Sect." Lin Xiao said, "This is Behind the Wasteland tribe that broke through the Great Wall on the border of the Wei Kingdom, there were a large number of Xuantian Sect monks."
Bai Ze fell into deep thought.
Logically speaking, the forces on the mountain are extremely taboo about getting too involved with the world. The cause and effect of the secular dynasty is great. The higher the cultivation level, the more afraid of contamination. Once you are caught in the huge cause and effect and cannot escape, your cultivation will stop for life and it will be difficult to make any further progress.
Even the reversal of luck in the world will affect the people on the mountain. At least it will be more difficult to survive the tribulation, and at the worst, the monks themselves will have their Taoism backfired.
To be able to break through the Great Wall of Despair, how much bet did the Wasteland gang put in? Could it be that those saints don’t want to live anymore?
"Let's get to the point." Lin Xiao looked at the junior brothers and sisters and said, "It takes two people to rush to the Great Wall to sit on Wangfeng Peak." Lin Xiao looked past Bai Ze and Pei Guoguo and looked at Chen Ping, "Now you three Senior sister is at the Law Enforcement Hall, so my fourth junior brother and I will go with these two people."
Chen Ping nodded silently.
"No." When Bai Ze heard this, he immediately objected.
