In the silence, a white figure slowly walked over.
Under the moonlight, the man's face was vaguely visible.
He looks very young in his twenties, wearing a white robe with faint runes flowing under the moonlight, and the cuffs and neckline are embroidered with delicate dark patterns.
There was a faint smile on his handsome face, and he was holding a branch with only a few green leaves in his hand.
At this time, this green branch is swaying in the wind. If you listen carefully, you will find that the rustling sound of the wind passing through the branches and leaves actually comes from the short branch with only a few green leaves.
I don’t know how this green branch makes a rustling sound with only a few green leaves.
The man's Taoist name is Jingming. He formed the elixir at the age of eighty-five. His qualifications are on par with those of the Three Pure Ones. He is 147 years old this year and is in the middle stage of the elixir formation.
Master Jingming actually felt that his cultivation was not enough to participate in the battle of true disciples, but the short branch in his hand gave him a lot of confidence.
This green branch was obtained by Master Jingming when he traveled to the Eastern Continent ten years ago.
At that time, the green branch was still lush and green, with forty-nine green leaves on it.
However, after all these years, there are only eight leaves left on the green branches.
Eight leaves grow on a forearm-long branch, which inevitably looks shabby.
But this green branch makes Master Jingming dare to participate in the battle of true disciples, and naturally he will not be really shabby.
This branch comes from a rare spiritual tree in the world called the cradle tree.
It is called a cradle tree not because it looks like a cradle, but because it sings lullabies.
Lullaby, a song specially designed to put people to sleep.
This kind of spiritual tree will emit a sound wave that is inaudible to human ears whenever the wind passes by. It sounds like a normal sound of the wind rustling through the branches and leaves, but there is actually another mystery behind it.
And that sound wave is the so-called lullaby.
Anyone who hears it will feel sleepy unconsciously, and finally fall into sleep without knowing it.
When I woke up, I was still unconscious, I just felt like I had a beautiful dream.
Originally, this spiritual tree was just like this, and it didn't pose any threat. It was just a place to sleep, but when it fell into the hands of the monks, everything changed.
Among the monks, even if they were distracted for just a moment, there would be huge flaws.
Not to mention falling asleep.
Relying on this green branch, Master Jingming had already eliminated a fellow sect member within three days of entering the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map.
That fellow disciple was even in the late stage of Jindan.
Today, the woman in front of me will be the second one.
Master Jingming had an unstoppable smile on his face, and the green branches in his hands kept swaying. A faint green light spread out from the eight leaves and fell into the air with the wind.
On the other hand, a flash of inspiration flashed, and a dark black magic sword appeared.
After taking a few steps forward, Master Jingming raised the magic sword in his hand and chopped off his head without hesitation, the blade going straight to the vital point.
Before entering the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map, all the disciples had a ray of spiritual consciousness left behind by the Yuanying monks within the sect. Once their lives were in danger, they would be forcibly pulled out of the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map.
And all the disciples know that everything that happens in the Wanli Mountains and Rivers is under the eyes of the Nascent Soul cultivators.
Therefore, Jingming Zhenren had no room for action.
The blade of the sword broke through the air, making a slight sound of breaking wind. In the blink of an eye, the sword fell down, and the blade it brought even cut the surrounding grass.
The woman who was sleeping with her eyes closed in front of Master Jingming suddenly disappeared into the air like a shadow under the edge of the sword.
The next moment, he disappeared without a trace before the eyes of Master Jingming.
It looked like he had been eliminated.
However, Master Jingming narrowed his eyes slightly, and the smile on his face suddenly froze.
wrong!
He eliminated a fellow disciple before, but he did not melt like this, but after a wave of spiritual power, he was pulled out of the Map of Mountains and Rivers by a hand.
totally different!
Master Jingming immediately realized something was wrong, his expression was extremely vigilant, his mouth tightened, and he said in a deep voice, "Junior sister, why do you need to hide?"
The lakeside at night is quiet and vast, with the wind blowing and the branches and leaves rustling incessantly.
There was still no one around.
Master Jingming did not put away the green branches in his hands, but instead held them tighter.
If there is a fight, the green branches are still very useful. As long as the opponent is distracted for a moment, it is his chance.
"Junior sister, you and I are both in the middle stage of the Golden Core. This time, I am too blind to see Mount Tai. Why don't you and I each take a step back and see each other again in the Yangshan Lotus Pond?"
It seems that he wants to make peace, but Master Jingming obviously does not want to face him head-on.
It was still quiet all around.
Master Jingming narrowed his eyes, put away the black magic sword in his hand, and put the green branch into his sleeve, looking sincere.
"My name is Jingming. Is this junior sister Yu Taiwei from Taiqing Mountain? I also participated in the elixir formation ceremony between you and junior sister Zhantai three years ago. The senior junior sister is dozens of years old and has the audacity to call her senior brother." Master Jingming realized In this situation, this junior sister is obviously a bit weird. It is not the end yet, so it is not appropriate to fight forcefully. "I apologize to my brother here, junior sister Yu. There are four true disciples. How about we turn enemies into friends? How about joining forces?" ?”
"Senior Brother Jingming, there is a good move to turn retreat into advance, and turn enemies into friends."
A clear and soft voice sounded faintly.
Not far away, Lingchu slowly opened his eyes and looked at the white-robed Master Jingming, who was facing a tree but looking extremely serious, and raised his lips with a smile.
really!
Master Jingming's eyes lit up, and Junior Sister Yu was indeed not confused by the green branches, nor was she eliminated.
Thinking of this, the expression on Master Jingming's face became more sincere, "Junior sister Yu, only three days have passed since the fifteenth day. You and I have already fallen behind in the middle stage of Golden Core cultivation. At this time, we are at a disadvantage. If we fight to the death, wouldn't it be an advantage for others? Even if Junior Sister doesn't want to turn enemies into friends, why not just live in peace?"
Inducement, coercion, Xiaozhi is moved by emotion and reason.
It is true that few monks who have reached the Golden Core realm are pure.
Lingchu's eyes flashed, he was silent for a moment, and then he said with a smile, "Senior Brother Jingming is right."
The woman's voice sounded wandering, but the direction was good.
Master Jingming's eyes were bright, "Then, junior sister, can you send me out the formation? Or tell me how to break the formation? Junior sister can leave first. In front of the lotus pond, I can swear an oath to never be an enemy of junior sister."
After a while, Master Jingming realized that he had fallen into the formation.
Everything you see in front of you may be an illusion.
However, during these fifteen days, everyone was on the road, and the resting places were all temporary. Even if there were formations, it shouldn't be too difficult, and most of them were defensive and trapping formations.
As long as enough time is given, Master Jingming is confident of breaking through the formation.
Of course, time is precious, and it would be best if the other party is willing to withdraw from the formation or tell them how to break it.
"Okay, senior brother, make an oath, and then I will tell senior brother how to break the formation."
Master Jingming made an oath simply and neatly.
Lingchu also kept his promise and told him how to break the formation.
"Senior Brother Jingming, see you later."
After saying that, the lakeside fell into silence again.
