The years do not last forever, but the seasons flow.
The Golden Elixir Ceremony of Taisu Zongzong was finally approaching, and an unknown number of monks gathered at Yunmeng Daze.
Thousands of miles away along the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, a middle-aged Taoist priest who looked to be in his thirties and dressed in simple clothes was walking up the river at a leisurely pace.
There was a woman beside this man. She looked like she was in her prime, but she was wearing a palace dress, her hair was tied up, her eyebrows were neatly painted, her face was evenly rosy and her lips were dotted with red. She leaned quietly on his shoulder and said curiously:
"Li Lang, you and I don't have an invitation. Even if we arrive at Taisu Zhengzong, we can't go inside to watch the ceremony. Could it be that we are here to ask for a little bit of happiness?" At this point, the woman covered her lips and smiled foolishly.
Or can we say that Taisu Zhengzong's Golden Elixir Ceremony can arouse the yearning of monks all over the world? Isn't it just that this is the first time Taisu has organized the Golden Elixir Ceremony in thousands of years?
As early as a few months ago, Taisu Zhengzong had already announced that all righteous monks in the world, even if they have not received an invitation to watch the ceremony, as long as they come to Yunmengze to say congratulations, Taisu Zhengzong will give them a gift, with any content inside. Gifting a spiritual thing is by no means of ordinary value. No matter the quantity, anyone who comes will be welcomed.
But having said that, the woman also knew that Li Lang was not a person who was greedy for small profits, and this statement was just a joke.
Li Lang just smiled faintly when he heard this. Before he could respond, he saw the beauty's little face condense slightly.
His heart moved, he raised his eyes and looked around, and landed on a hilltop at the corner of the river in front of him. He saw a strange Taoist with short hair no longer than his ears and carrying a large cauldron on his back.
Seeing his gaze, the strange Taoist didn't shy away. He raised his hands and made a virtual bow, and his voice came from the wind: "Li Changfeng, fellow Taoist Li, with your status and your actions being so low-key, how can you call Hou Mou?" Easy to find.”
The visitor was Hou Shengyun from the Tianhuo Sect, and the thirty-year-old Taoist priest was Li Changfeng, whom he had been searching for for a long time before finding his trace.
Compared with when he left the mountain, Li Changfeng's appearance had changed a bit, and his temperament was obviously much calmer. When he heard the voice, he just responded lightly: "Li is just a practicing monk, so what is his identity?"
"I just don't know why this fellow Taoist is specifically looking for Li?"
Hou Shengyun said with a smile: "I was entrusted by someone..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw Li Changfeng raise two fingers and make a sword gesture.
As the saying goes, those who come are not good, and those who are good will not come! Li Changfeng has been traveling in Xuanhuang for 20 or 30 years, and has already seen many changes in people's hearts. How to distinguish the unknown Hou Shengyun's intention.
After all, he is also a swordsman, so he will naturally not lack courage in his actions, so he immediately struck preemptively before even saying a word.
There was only a sudden clear sound, and Yueying's sword blew out three feet of sword energy. It was so fast that it seemed to break the air barrier, causing thunder and roar, and it killed Hou Shengyun in just a blink of an eye. in front of.
Hou Shengyun's brows jumped slightly. Li Changfeng was quite capable. At least among the practicing monks, his skills could be said to have been honed to a certain extent. However, compared with the golden elixir cultivators...
Still a lot worse.
Hou Shengyun sighed softly, raised his eyes, and suddenly two flashes of fire shot out from his eyes. He hit the moon shadow sword and knocked it away instantly. Then he raised his hand and pinched a seal, and then there was a crackle and explosion!
I saw sparks bursting out in the cauldron behind Hou Shengyun, thick smoke billowing, and then balls of open flames soared into the sky, condensed into human shapes in mid-air, and slain down!
"Golden elixir cultivator! Is this the Five Fire Magic Weapon?" Li Changfeng's eyes were focused, and the thoughts in his mind were racing. His men did not hesitate, and drove the Moon Shadow Sword to circle through the air. With a slight flicker, it split into shadows and turned into a shadow. Four, each divided one side to kill a Five Fire Magic Soldier.
His technique is not clutch swordsmanship, but the differentiation of sword light that he finally understood after a long period of practice. However, against the Taoist skills of Jindan monks, he is only weak, and there are several five-fire magic soldiers who were not stopped by the flying swords. , coming down to kill.
He frowned and was about to take out the magic weapon to fight the enemy. The beautiful woman leaned behind him and suddenly said softly: "Li Lang, why don't you let me take action?"
Li Changfeng didn't hesitate and responded: "Jin'er, this person is powerful, you and I will take action together."
Jin'er smiled sweetly when she heard this, raised her sleeves, picked up a drop of water with her bare hands, and flicked it with her fingers.
Peng!
The drop of water hit a five-fire magician, and it was like pouring a heavy rain, stirring up billowing smoke, dousing the fire in an instant, and destroying the magician.
"What?" Hou Shengyun frowned slightly. He didn't expect that the Five Fire Magic Weapon he had worked so hard to refine would be so vulnerable?
What he didn't expect even more was that Jin'er's water droplet was easily picked up, and with a few flicks, half of the magic soldiers were wiped out in the blink of an eye. Hou Shengyun was not able to feel heartbroken, so he quickly summoned the magic skills to recall the magic soldiers.
"Good Jin'er!" Li Changfeng was overjoyed when he saw that Jin'er had done something extraordinary as soon as he took action. He shouted and combined the four sword lights together, then raised the ten-foot-long sword light to kill Hou Shengyun fiercely.
Jin'er then turned her hand away, and instead of pursuing the Five Fire Magic Soldiers, she knocked down a handful of water drops towards Hou Shengyun.
With a thought in his mind, Hou Shengyun urged the Five Fire Magic Soldiers to block Li Changfeng's sword light and ignored it. He looked at the handful of water drops intently, grabbed a handful of fire talismans and stuffed them into his mouth, then chewed them. He spit it out again, and a fire dragon spurted out from his mouth.
Although his Taoist skill came in haste, it was fueled by fire talismans, and the intensity of the flames was several times greater than that of five fire magic weapons. However, after being beaten by the water droplets, he still ended up with a normal outcome.
Hou Shengyun's color finally changed, a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes, he stamped his foot violently, and a large amount of elixir power was released, a fire cloud formed around him and he rose up. He actually left the five fire magic weapons alone and fled into the air in an instant. .
Jin'er frowned and saw that Li Changfeng was still entangled with the Five Fire Magic Soldiers. After hesitating for a moment, Hou Shengyun had already escaped without a trace, so he made up his mind not to pursue him.
Li Changfeng fought with the Five Fire Magic Soldiers for a while, but without the blessing of Hou Shengyun's magic power, the firepower gradually died out. After a while, Li Changfeng had completely gained the upper hand.
After killing the last Five Fire magic weapon, the flames flew away. Li Changfeng took a look at the talisman that was cut in half by the sword energy. His brows suddenly wrinkled and he said to himself: "It is indeed the Five Fires of the Sky Fire Sect. Law Soldier."
Seeing Jin'er flying up, Li Changfeng thought for a moment, put the talisman in his sleeve, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Jin'er's magical power to be so powerful, even the monks of the Sky Fire Sect are no match."
He only knew that the beautiful woman in front of him had the merits of a middle-grade golden elixir, but he did not expect that her skills were so powerful. He originally thought that the Taoism of the Sky Fire Sect was so powerful that they would need to work together to deal with it, but he did not expect that Jin'er would use the golden elixir in twos and twos. Brother Dan drove away...
"I practice water magic, it just happens that the zodiac signs are in conflict with each other." Jin'er responded calmly, "Does Li Lang have an idea as to why the Tianhuo cultivator blocked the way here?"
"What's the reason for Li Lang's identity he said?" She opened her almond-shaped eyes and looked at Li Changfeng. Li Changfeng coughed lightly and replied, "I have some clues."
Seeing Jin'er's expression, Li Changfeng felt guilty for some reason. After thinking for a moment, he said: "To be honest with Jin'er, I am actually a disciple of Taisu's orthodox sect, and my master is Master Daomiao..."
"What?" Jin'er lightly covered her mouth and asked, "Is the Venerable Miao mentioned by Li Lang the one in the rumors?"
Li Changfeng raised his hands solemnly towards the empty space and responded: "Exactly."
After being affirmed by Li Changfeng, Jin'er was even more surprised and said quietly: "No wonder that person said that Li Lang acts in a low-key manner. I don't even know about Li Lang's background..."
Li Changfeng rubbed his nose in embarrassment and explained: "I am walking outside. Firstly, I don't want to be too ostentatious, and secondly, I don't want to embarrass my mentor. This time I returned to Taisu to introduce you to my mentor and ask for his approval. "
Jin'er seemed to be in a trance, but hesitated in her heart: "I didn't expect Li Lang to have such thoughts. Should I be honest with him..."
She didn't respond for a moment, and Li Changfeng couldn't help but feel a little anxious, racking his brains to come up with an explanation. Seeing him like this, Jin'er couldn't help but smile and thought: "That's it, I've already identified him."
He was about to speak, but Li Changfeng was thinking about it, and suddenly his expression changed and he said: "No, I should rush back to the sect as soon as possible, Jin'er, let me talk to you about this later."
Jin'er rolled her eyes and did not get angry with him, but said: "Since the matter is urgent, it is better for me to fly away with Li Lang."
There was nothing wrong with Li Changfeng, so she drew a cloud of air with her hand, and the two of them flew up into the clouds.
——
When Li Changfeng and the two rushed to Yunmeng Daze, Hou Shengyun landed on a mountain with a livid complexion. He flicked his sleeves angrily, knocking down the rocks and rolling down the mountain. Only then did he feel a little depressed, but he remembered that he had carefully refined it. The Five Fire Magic Weapon still felt pain in his body, and what made him even more puzzled was:
"Why is there a high-grade golden elixir woman next to Li Changfeng?" He couldn't help but feel jealous, and even had a headache.
Yang Huaizun said that there were three disciples under Xu Zhuang, but they all knew the same name. Hou Shengyun finally found out about Li Changfeng with great effort, and wanted to capture him. Unexpectedly, not only did he fail to capture Li Changfeng, but he also fought for him. Walked away.
He wanted to vomit blood when he thought that the only possibility of completing his errand was that Li Changfeng returned to the sect and sued Hou Shengyun for bullying the younger ones.
If the defendant is prosecuted, even if Xu Zhuang and Yang Huaizun are brought to understand their grudges, Hou Shengyun will definitely not be able to survive.
"Old man, I see that you have lost two sons. You have good intentions and have done your best to serve you. How dare you bully me like this! Ahhhhhh!"
The more Hou Shengyun thought about it, the angrier he became. He kicked out a large boulder and cracked it into pieces. Not only did he not let out his anger, but his anger became even more intense. Only then did he realize that something was wrong. He was about to circulate the calming energy in the center of the door when he suddenly heard a voice. Coming from Xili:
"Fellow Taoist seems to be very troubled?"
"What?" Hou Shengyun's heart skipped a beat. He looked up and saw a handsome Taoist appearing three feet away. He suddenly became cautious and asked, "Who are you?"
The handsome Taoist didn't take it seriously when he saw his guard. He smiled and shook his head. He pinched it in his hands, as if he suddenly realized something, and said, "That's it."
When Hou Shengyun was in the fog, the handsome Taoist suddenly said: "I can point out a clear path for fellow Taoists."
Hou Shengyun's heart moved, his eyes narrowed, and he asked, "Oh? Please tell me and listen."
The handsome Taoist smiled and said: "Yuan Hao, Dao Miaozi's second disciple, I can't figure out, but he must be in Taisu Zhengzong."
"However, I can point out his third disciple Qin Dengxiao where to find him."
"What?" Hou Shengyun's eyes were shocked. Instead of feeling happy, he was extremely vigilant and asked, "Who are you?"
"Hahaha." The handsome Taoist smiled and said, "You don't need to care about this, just know that this is your only chance to survive."
Hou Shengyun's heart was shocked, his thoughts changed rapidly, and he suddenly thought: "That's right, I didn't show too much malice, and there was nothing I could do to get Li Changfeng. He may not sue me yet. If he can capture Qin Dengxiao, let Yang Huaizun and Xu Zhuang do it themselves. solve……"
The more he thought about it, the more determined he became. Before he could say anything, the handsome Taoist had already seen through his mind. He smiled slightly, said something in his mouth, and said: "Go." He waved his sleeves and disappeared.
When Hou Shengyun saw that he was indeed not disadvantageous to him, he was even more relieved. Without stopping, he immediately set up a fire cloud and flew away.
After a while, a charming and enchanting woman with a backless dress and skin as white as jade suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain and asked: "Is this where you told me that the bones of the Nascent Soul came from?"
The handsome Taoist priest appeared out of nowhere and said with a smile: "Why not? No matter whether it is Xu Zhuang or Yang Huaizun, whoever loses and dies, we will be merciful and collect his bones for him."
"Wouldn't it be great to get a treasured bone of the Nascent Soul without any effort, and also weaken the Xuanmen's strength?" When he said this, he seemed to be impressed by his own cleverness, and shook his head.
The woman giggled and said: "It's wonderful, it's really wonderful. Yang Huaizun has been practicing Yuanying Dacheng for hundreds of years. Xu Zhuang is not an ordinary person. I am afraid that the bones are more in line with the White Bone Demon's supernatural powers than those of Yuanying Dacheng monks."
"If I can give the bones of one of these two people to Senior Brother Han, I will surely please him..."
At this point, she suddenly changed the topic and asked suspiciously: "But are you really sure about planning such a person?"
The handsome Taoist priest said proudly: "Who do you think I am, Wu Hengguang, and I am not the real Yuanshen, so what can I not do?"
"Didn't you receive a lesson from Senior Brother Han when you plotted against him?" the woman asked suspiciously.
Wu Hengguang said angrily: "Han Fashou's luck is too strong, and he has the innate Bone God to count beside him. How can he count?"
The woman sneered and said: "If you act innocent, you must be suffering from your own pride and cleverness. I think you should be more careful."
Wu Hengguang hummed low and did not argue, but said: "Anyway, please remember to bring the concealing veil. If you want to watch the battle between Yang Huaizunru and Xu Zhuang, ordinary concealment techniques cannot hide the traces."
The woman didn't reply and waved her hand. Wu Hengguang didn't take it seriously and shook his head.
At this time, a trace of blush appeared on the woman's face, and she thought: "It would be great if Yang Huaizun and Xu Zhuang could die together. How happy would Senior Brother Han be if he knew that I had prepared two precious bones for him?"
"If you can make the Bone Demon God, I'm afraid no Nascent Soul cultivator in the world can compete with Senior Brother Han, right?"
