As a large dark cloud appeared, blocking the bright moon and stars in the sky, the night became as dark as iron, without any light.
To the north of Red Cliff, the jungle-covered hills look like huge black dragons lying prone in the night.
Suddenly, a colorful ribbon of flowers floated past with its fragrance, and in the middle there was a looming figure in white clothes, as ethereal as a fairy.
Then, a green belt with the fresh smell of leaves passed by. Due to the high brightness, it can be clearly seen that it is a young Taoist priest.
Looking down from the sky, a flower belt and a green belt look like two chasing snakes.
In this way, after advancing for more than ten miles, a mountain peak blocked the way.
The figure in white walked towards the mountain peak with flower belts on its feet.
The young Taoist priest followed behind, keeping a certain distance.
When they were less than 300 meters away from the peak, the figure in white, or rather Zhang Ning, slowed down.
The young Taoist priest, or rather Cao Yi, also slowed down.
As he got closer and closer to the peak, Cao Yi, who had already opened the purple, gold and red gourd, was ready to go in at any time. The opponent was known as an immortal, and his strength was obviously more than one level higher than Ji and Zuo Ci. If he ignored the expert With such a face, he took action brazenly. Apart from temporarily avoiding it, there was really no other way.
The 300-meter road up the mountain is very long for ordinary people, but it is nothing to Zhang Ning and Cao Yi.
Not long after, the two of them reached the peak of Lengfeng Hunter one after another.
As expected by Cao Yi, there was an old man with white beard and hair, a ruddy face, and wearing a white robe, sitting cross-legged under an old pine tree and meditating.
The faint moonlight was sinking into his body.
Yu Ji and Zuo Ci haven't mastered the Five Elements yet, but this one has absorbed the power of Taiyin. The gap is as big as one on the ground and one in the sky.
Zhang Ning walked up to the old man, bowed respectfully, and then stepped aside.
"senior"
Cao Yi bowed his hand politely.
The old man, or the Nanhua Immortal, opened his eyes and looked at Cao Yi, with a gentle smile on his rosy face: "My little friend has excellent bones and has cultivated the superior method. His future is limitless."
"Senior's ridiculous praise"
Cao Yi replied politely.
Immortal Nanhua continued: "I am here specifically to resolve the dispute between you and Zuo Ci."
solve?
Aren't you here to make a difference?
Doubt flashed in Cao Yi's eyes, why was this man's peaceful behavior so different from what Yu Ji said.
Nanhua Immortal saw the reason for Cao Yi's doubts at a glance and said with a smile: "But Yu Ji told you about the old man and the Sun family. The old man has already read all the world, how can he care about the life and death of one or two people."
"Then why do you say it so confidently to your seniors?"
Cao Yi was puzzled.
"Yu Ji wanted to follow the example of Zhang Jiao brothers and practice the idea of 'promoting peace' in Jiangdong. Lao Chen had a mistake and passed on "The Essential Art of Taiping" to Zhang Jiao brothers, which led to the Yellow Turban uprising and the loss of life. Lao Chen did not want Yu Ji to make the same mistake again, so he used the protection of The old man used the Sun family, the old masters of Jiangdong, as an excuse to deceive him."
Nanhua Immortal explained calmly.
"Senior, why don't you explain it directly to Senior Yu?"
Cao Yi was even more puzzled.
"Yu Ji has only just entered Taoism, and he still can't get rid of the stereotype of people in the secular world who are afraid of power but not virtuous."
Nanhua Immortal said.
"I see"
Cao Yi believed the words of Nanhua Immortal.
In fact, no one believes it.
Immortal Nanhua continued what he had said before: "I hope you will no longer be enemies with Zuo Ci."
Isn’t it about resolving disputes?
Why did he no longer be an enemy of Zuo Ci?
Cao Yi was about to speak.
Immortal Nanhua said again: "After Zuo Ci has done what he has to do, I will not let him stay any longer."
"What should Zuo Ci do?"
After hearing the words of Nanhua Immortal, Cao Yi suddenly had a bad premonition.
"In the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao lost and the world was divided into three parts."
Immortal Nanhua's tone became extremely solemn.
"Why must we divide the world into three parts?"
Cao Yi asked.
"number of days"
Immortal Nanhua uttered two words.
A good number of days.
Cao Yi looked at the Nanhua Immortal who was like the Taiqing Sage in the Great Desolate River, and frowned: "Senior, do you know how many people will die in the three-thirds of the world? Didn't I just say that I don't want to see the lives of all beings in ruins?"
Nanhua Immortal shook his head and said: "This is a destiny, not a man-made disaster, and cannot be compared."
Cao Yi was silent for a while and asked, "Is there no room for change?"
Nanhua Immortal nodded.
"senior"
A voice came from the night.
It's Yu Ji.
Cao Yi turned around and looked.
In the forest, Yu Ji was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he covered a long distance. In less than thirty breaths, he reached the top of the mountain.
"Senior, why did you recruit me?"
Yu Ji arched his hands.
"Stay here. When Zuo Ci helps the Sun-Liu coalition defeat Cao Cao, I will take you back together."
Immortal Nanhua said calmly.
"I just heard my senior talking about the number of days with Mr. Cao. Senior has never mentioned the number of days before. Why this time?"
Yu Ji's face was full of doubts.
"The old man has recently made a breakthrough and knows the number of days."
After Nanhua Immortal finished speaking, he nodded a few times towards the void.
A huge Bagua pattern appeared on the ground, emitting dazzling light, and strange light pillars emerged and connected continuously. A complex world of formations gradually formed.
Cao Yi raised his head and looked at the world of formations and asked, "How long do you plan to impoverish Dao and Yu?"
"Three days"
Immortal Nanhua uttered three words.
Zuo Ci, plus Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang, Liu Guan, Zhang Zhao, a group of Jiangdong fierce generals, and tens of thousands of troops, it would be difficult for Cao Cao not to mention three days, but two days.
Cao Yi frowned, walked to a stone aside, and sat down cross-legged.
Try contacting the system.
"system?"
As usual, no response.
"The poor Taoist wants to exchange his Taoist luck value for something"
"Purpose"
The cold sound of system machinery immediately sounded.
Really realistic.
"Break this formation"
"Ding! The recommended exchange is as follows."
"Option 1: Xing Zi Jue, function, ignores any formation, can come and go freely, requires 160 Taoist luck points. Flaw, needs to be learned, how much can be learned depends on the host's qualifications."
"Option 2: A one-time improved star-inducing formation. You can choose the location where the black hole is opened. It is hidden. It uses the impact of meteorites to break the formation. It requires 50 points of Taoist luck. Flaws, destructive Big and uncontrollable.”
"Option 3: Formation Breaking Shuttle. Its function is to ignore low-level formations and shuttle at will. It requires 200 points of Taoist luck. The disadvantage is that it is expensive and can only be used in low-level formations."
"Choose one of three?"
Option one is very magical and powerful, but it requires learning and is too uncertain.
Option two is cheaper, but is disposable.
Option three, the formation-breaking magic weapon, does not require learning, but the price/performance ratio is too low.
Weigh it up and choose two.
"Choose Two"
"Looking for a star formation platform that can be used in another world, please wait"
Cao Yi: "..."
