"Anyway, it's not a trivial matter. Look at the people around you. The Blood-Hand Immortal, Zhou Chu, Xiao Feixian, Bai Hansheng, Duobao Taoist, Yang Yiming, the golden Arhat, Yin Hui, plus you and me, who are not well-known demon slayers from various sects; There are others who are all elites of various sects with the lowest cultivation level. There are also some who are in the early stages of becoming gods. They are all masters who can become the guardians of a city. In addition, Taoist Qingyin and Taoist Qingzhu who are driving this magic weapon are in the return to virtual stage. All the masters gathered together are simply stronger than the lineup of a medium-sized sect! If there is no big thing to do, why bother to mobilize so many troops? In my opinion, there must be a war, and a war may be a prelude to a war!"
Yongxin clenched his fists and said excitedly. He is a fighting maniac and has a keen sense of war. Although the master who led the team this time did not explain the situation when he brought them here, he found clues from various clues and made an almost completely correct inference. .
"Maybe, let me wait and see about the future." Itoi nodded to Yushin and said cautiously, and then started to take the thing from his arms.
"Are you going~~~~~~" Yongxin was surprised and said hurriedly, "You don't have to do this. Anyway, this time there is a return to the void master to lead the team. They will naturally tell us the destination when they arrive at the location. Why wait and see the future? You use that The technique will consume at least a dozen years of life, and the loss is too great. Besides, with our cultivation level, we can only charge into the battle at most. With the Void Return Grandmaster sitting here, with our strength and identity, we will naturally be taken care of. Are you still afraid of something happening to us? Is it an accident?" Looking at his hurried and anxious look, he clearly knew the price of what Itoi was about to do.
"No, before you said it. I only had a vague premonition, but when I combined your speculation with my own premonition, the anxiety in my heart became more and more serious, as if something major involving life and death was really going to happen! And this kind of I feel very urgent, as if it is coming in the next second, and it is too late. No matter how high the price is, I will go and see it!" Itoi shook his head and refused Yunobu's persuasion. He said decisively and then took out a palm-sized ancient bronze from his arms. The surface of the ancient mirror is as pure as water, and the inside is ethereal and illusory, as if it reflects the infinite and distant future.
"Illuminating the future with my life essence and eight senses, the secret of sacrifice to heaven!" Itoi let go of the ancient mirror with both hands, and the ancient mirror actually floated in the air. Then Itoi pinched out a weird seal with both hands and pressed it against his temple, and suddenly shot out a beam from the center of his eyebrows. A bright beam of vitality pours into the ancient mirror. Ripples rippled on the water-like mirror surface.
It was as if a falling stone had been thrown into the water. The calm mirror surface was broken, and the illusory reflections were scattered into millions, like a kaleidoscope, which seemed to reflect different futures, each interpreting different scenes. A crystal-shaped eyeball the size of a fist slowly emerged from the mirror. In the center of the eye, there was a pupil that shimmered in eight colors like a polygonal prism. There were scenes inside that shimmered, but they were fleeting. No one could see clearly what was inside. content. Itoi closed his right eye and his left eye, staring intently at the eyeballs in the mirror. All kinds of fantasies reflected in the eyeballs were reflected in his eyes. His whole body was shaking and sweating profusely. His skin and muscles were drying up and aging at a speed visible to the naked eye, but he suddenly understood. I wonder if I am still staring at the crystal eyeballs of the ancient mirror.
Only sixty seconds later, the ancient mirror suddenly swayed, as if there was a mysterious force attached to its surface, and the beam of light emitted from Itoi's eyebrows was immediately cut off! As the Shouyuan Light Pillar progressed, the ancient mirror seemed to have lost its energy, and cracks appeared on the surface of the crystal eyeball. Then, it cracked into tens of millions of fragments and fell into the mirror. The ancient mirror also played back all the pieces like a video. The fragments are recovered. After a second, Gu Jing returned to its original ordinary appearance, if it weren't for the fact that its whole body was weak and limp on the side. Itoi Yushin, whose face has aged for decades, may even feel that all this is an illusion.
"Ahem, it is indeed the limit of the law. Sixty seconds is not enough, even one second more than sixty seconds is not enough. Unfortunately, if my cultivation reaches the realm of returning to the void, I can watch it for almost five minutes. I don't know where those masters found it. Although this strange Noble Phantasm shikigami has no fighting power, its ability is so strange." Itoi coughed twice and muttered weakly. At this time, his whole body seemed to be falling apart. If it weren't for Yongxin's support, he wouldn't even be able to stand.
Although Yongxin felt that he was making a fuss, since he had already done it, there was no point in regretting it. He injected pure and soft Buddhist essence into Itoi's body to adjust his breath and circulate his true power while saying: "Who told you to face it just like a horse?" It’s like the end of the world and I won’t listen to any advice. Now, my cultivation level, which was already about to break through the late stage of divine transformation, suddenly fell to the middle stage of divine transformation and almost fell back to the early stage of divine transformation. Isn’t it heartbreaking?” After complaining, he asked curiously : "What did you just see? Do you know the purpose of our operation this time? And the process and results?"
"No one knows the purpose of this gathering unless the grand masters who lead the team tell me. But my hunch is the same as yours and I think this may be a war." Itoi took a breath and recovered his physical condition as the real power in his body was running. A lot of people spoke.
"Because I just saw some vague war scenes in the future through the 'eight consciousness eyes', but it was very unclear. I don't know what kind of existence we are fighting, and I don't know how far in the future it is. But in my I have a vague feeling. Our opponents are very powerful. In front of them, you and I are as small as ants." He said with a heavy tone of worry on his face.
"What!" Yongxin screamed in surprise and the voice was too loud, causing the surrounding cultivators to turn their heads to look at him. Some even wanted to come over and ask what happened. "The poor monk Amitofu has just understood the wonderful truth of Buddhism and can't help but disturb you. I offend you." Yongxin seemed to have changed into a different person, making a solemn look in front of everyone and apologizing again and again, as if he looked like a senior monk, bluffing others. He was stunned for a while, but also because the difference between his usual image and his image made Itoi smile for a while.
"Okay, if you want to laugh, laugh out loud and be careful not to cause internal injuries. After all, I am also a famous master of Daming Temple. Of course I have to maintain the image of the temple outside. What's the fuss about this?" Yongxin, who had fooled the curious people around him, looked at Ito next to him. Jing had a weird expression on his face, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh, so he could only wave his hands and said angrily.
"Haha, although it's not the first time I've met you, I still can't help but laugh when I see your 'double-faced' look." Itoi said with a few laughs.
"'Duplicity is not the true nature of laughing, yelling and cursing'. I am like a Buddha with thousands of hands, thousands of eyes, thousands of faces and thousands of features. I have only been a little bit of his old man, but it is still far away." Yong Xin. He made a look like "there is a long way to go" and then asked: "What you just meant is that we cannot play a key role in this battle or even have a supporting role. We are simply cannon fodder?" "That's more or less the case. ." Itoi whispered that these words could not be heard by outsiders, otherwise it would definitely cause an uproar*.
"How is this possible? Those present are all the backbones of various sects and the human elites who have grown up during the eight years of the war of resistance. If they are all used as cannon fodder, wouldn't it mean that the essence of humanity will be wiped out in one fell swoop? Who can pay? Can you afford such a big responsibility? Even the top sects of the Four Righteous Paths dare not do this. This is outrageous!" Yongxin asked in disbelief.
He was right. If these people become cannon fodder in future battles, even if the essence of humanity is not lost, it will be a huge loss that cannot be recovered for decades. If someone or a force dares to do this, they will undoubtedly want to bury the future of the entire human race with extremely vicious intentions. After that, there will inevitably be a counterattack from the human world. Even the top four righteous sects that stand at the pinnacle of the world of cultivation would not dare to do this thing that once again offended the public, let alone would not do it! Because they are also based on the human world. They both prosper and lose.
"Perhaps it is an underestimation of the future war, or perhaps the righteous masters did not realize this danger, or perhaps someone has deceived the secrets of heaven so that no one's calculation skills can peek into the future~~~~~~These are all Maybe after all, there are countless possibilities in the future and no one can completely predict the accident." Itoi shook his head and said slowly.
"Yes, yes, you are right. No one dares to do this. This must be the conspiracy of demons, demons or other inhuman forces. Those experts in the world of cultivation may have already made calculations in their hearts and have enough methods to prevent this from happening." Here!" Yongxin came to his senses and said urgently, "By the way, since you have seen this kind of future, then send a message to the Onmyoji to remind them. I also want to send a message to the Daming Temple. This matter is of great importance and cannot be taken lightly!" said Then he took out a shining golden Buddhist message from his arms and wanted to send a message, but Itoi held him back.
"Don't waste your efforts. Have you forgotten? This is the 'Lingyun Tianzhou', which isolates all internal and external information from being sent. We can't send messages before we go out. Don't worry, it won't take so long. Just believe in the wisdom and conduct of the high-level sect. Just like you said They may have known for a long time that this kind of situation will happen in the future, so they have made preparations. They are all old foxes who have lived for hundreds of thousands of years. Can't they even compare with juniors like you and me? If nothing else, don't you believe it? The Patriarch of Jianzhen in your temple? And the first generation leader of our sect, Yin Yang God, Yun Canghai, they are all extremely powerful and wise men. You and I have to believe in them!" Itoi firmly held Yunobu's arm and whispered in his ear. While she was speaking to comfort him, she seemed to be comforting herself.
Yes, Jianzhen has become a legendary figure over the past few hundred years. His deeds have been widely circulated in the world of cultivation. He is almost the incarnation of wisdom and power. The living Buddha has never done a single evil thing since his debut, nor has he achieved anything extraordinary. With his own hard work and talent, Qiyu not only cultivated the path of Bodhisattva, but also built the Daming Temple, which was originally a third-rate sect, into a large and emerging sect. He also benefited the common people and did many things that were helpful to Buddhism and the world of cultivation. It can be said that he is highly respected and respected by thousands of people.
Such a patriarch is naturally an idol of courage and trust. If Patriarch Jianzhen's Buddhist wisdom did not foresee the future, he would never believe it. Thinking of this, Yongxin's heart calmed down again. "Yes, you are right. Since the sect has not blocked our gathering, it naturally has confidence in us. Maybe your prediction is just something that happened in the distant future and has nothing to do with us. We should not worry about it in vain. I have a magical elixir here that was refined by the Medicine Buddha Academy. You should take it first to restore the lost longevity and true energy." As he spoke, Yongshin handed Itoi a golden elixir that was the size of a dragon's eye and exuded a strong medicinal fragrance. Then he walked towards the crowd around him. He wanted to take these people to ask for some information. After all, these people came from various sects and had many sources of information, so they might be able to get some useful information for this mission.
"I naturally have confidence in this sect. That lord has never made a mistake since he came to Japan. Every move is meaningful and will never harm the fundamental interests of this sect." Itoi said secretly in his heart, but in his eyes it was random. A compelling light flashed!
"But who knows that if that happens in the future, it will not be beneficial to our religion? And a little pawn like me is just a pawn in the eyes of a big man like him. Yes, you, me, and even us Diao Ren is just a pawn in the eyes of the real big shots who may be sacrificed for the sake of the overall situation at any time. If you think you can sit back and relax with the protection of the sect, that would be a big mistake!"

"Senior Brother Qingyin and the juniors are in a good mood. They all look energetic and full of fighting spirit." In a space isolated from the inside and outside of the control room of "Lingyun Tianzhou", a man wearing a blue Taoist robe with embroidered face The young Taoist priest with a few crisp bamboo joints said to the middle-aged Taoist priest sitting cross-legged and manipulating the compass. In front of him stood a light mirror formed by the circular light technique, which clearly displayed the scene of those elite cultivators even though they were in the cabin.
"That's because they don't know what kind of terrifying enemy they will face this time. Otherwise, even if they are not frightened and shrink from the battle, they will probably be extremely serious and their morale will drop." The middle-aged Taoist priest also wore a Taoist robe, but the surface of the Taoist robe was embroidered with circles. The blue ripples are like embodied sound waves.
"Brother, I always feel that the reaction of the sect this time is too strong. Although Senior Brother Qingzhi was killed by the demon, the strength of our sect was damaged and the crowd was excited. But when the major sects jointly arranged a plan to exterminate the demons in the southeast, our sect was so anxious to do so. Is it too hasty for the leading bird to destroy a demon nest first? You know there is a lord-level demon and tens of thousands of middle and low-level demons there, which is not easy to chew!" The young cultivator looked hesitantly. The middle-aged cultivator said.
"Junior Brother Qingyin's words are different from those of Junior Brother Qingzhi, but one of the top combat strengths of our sect's newly promoted Void-Returning Grandmaster is the pillar of the sect! Even if one of them dies, it will shake the foundation of our sect and reduce our strength. Back then, the Southern Demon The leader of the sect immediately mobilized the sect to fight back after two elders in the Void Return stage were killed by Nayou Longzi. In the end, even the Heavenly Immortal-level Patriarch who had retired for a long time came out to avenge them! This shows the importance of the Void Return Grandmaster to the sect.
If the top sects are like this, let alone large sects like us? What's more important is that Junior Brother Qingzhi still has a few Feitian Yaksha-level refined corpses in his hands! Each one has the power of returning to the void level! I don’t know how much power the monsters put in to kill Junior Brother Qingzhi under the protection of these corpses. Maybe there were demon-level monsters among them who intervened! If this is the case, the strength of our Maoshan family alone is not enough to take revenge, so we have to recruit people from other sects. If all the families take action together, no single demonic force can resist it! "Qingyin Taoist said with a cold smile in his eyes.
"You mean to let these cultivators suffer great losses in the battle against the demons, so that the masters and strong men of their sects will draw their anger to those demons and finally the sect will profit from them?" Taoist Qingzhu suddenly said. .
"Hey, lord-level demons are not easy to deal with. Let's clean up the sect and then attack directly! Even if we recover the losses later, as long as we can kill the demon lord and complete the mission, we can completely push the loss to the demon lord's near-death counterattack. Even if those sects have grievances It can only be sprinkled on those monsters!" Qingyin Taoist nodded and said, "Three flying yakshas are equivalent to three famous words. How can the Master of Returning to the Void just give up!"
