The Golden Crow mecha has been refined, and Xu Ke is about to go on a trip.
The headmaster and the Manghe Sword Sect have already reached an agreement, and the other party has sent Fairy Xinglin, a Jindan sword cultivator from the Manghe Sword Sect, Youtan Zhenren, and a Jindan "Master Craftsman" from Tiangong Pavilion, Dayan Zhenren.
On the Haoyang Sect's side are the master of the Sword Forging Hall, Ming Feng Zhenren, and the inner sect's deacon, Xu Ke.
Xu Ke and the Master of the Sword Making Hall are both equipped with a Golden Crow mecha. Moreover, Xu Ke's configuration can be called luxurious, and he is almost armed to the teeth.
A Golden Crow Mecha, a Sun Yang Sui, a sect's most precious Haoyang Bell, two small moving formation disks, as well as hundreds of golden elixir charms, various healing, rejuvenating, and detoxifying elixirs.
This is just the equipment equipped by the sect. Xu Ke himself... In addition to the Guiyuan Sword and the Hunyuan Yiqi Taichu Talisman, he also prepared various magical weapons and spiritual weapons.
For all situations that can be considered, corresponding magic weapons and spiritual weapons have been prepared. This doesn't feel like a mission, just like moving house.
What is a divine outfit? This is a divine outfit!
In the main hall of Haoyang Mountain, Xu Ke activated the large formation and opened the teleportation array leading to the "Chiyankou" station in the gravel plain.
After handing over the control hub of the sect's formation to the real person in charge, Xu Ke and the master of the Sword Forging Hall stepped into the portal and arrived at Chiyankou of the Gravel Plain in an instant.
When Xu Ke walked out of the teleportation platform, the Chi Yankou in front of him was no longer the temporary camp it once was.
Looking around, Chiyankou has now become a huge city. From Chiyankou, it has become Chiyan City.
"Junior Brother Mingfeng, Xu Ke, are you here?"
After the two people came out of the teleportation platform, the guardian elder came up to them and greeted Xu Ke and the two.
"Uncle Mingfeng, senior brother Xu."
Li Muzi followed the guardian elder and also said hello.
"I've met the guardian elder, and I've met Junior Sister Li."
After Xu Ke greeted the two of them, he followed the guardian elder to the nearby hall.
Everyone sat down, and the elder protector skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the topic.
"People from the Manghe Sword Sect have been contacted. They still have two hours to arrive."
The guardian elder glanced at Xu Ke and the two, and said: "Since Manghe Sword Sect Cheng Mingzi attacked Qingfenggang Walled City, there was another attack yesterday."
"Yesterday evening, Cheng Mingzi suddenly appeared in Xishan'ao, intending to launch an attack. Fortunately, Peng Zhengqing, the new inner gate deacon of the Formation Hall, responded in time and handled it properly, and used the formation to stop Cheng Mingzi."
"It's just that when we arrived after hearing the news, Cheng Mingzi disappeared again."
After saying that, the guardian elder glanced at Xu Ke, "Are you going to investigate now, or are you going to wait until the people from the Manghe Sword Sect arrive?"
"Let's go first!"
Xu Ke replied: "Xishan Col is protected by a large array, so we don't have to worry about safety issues."
"also!"
The guardian elder nodded and pointed at Li Muzi, "Let my disciple drive my flying boat and take you to Xishan'ao later."
After saying that, everyone dispersed.
Li Muzi took Xu Ke and Master Mingfeng of the Sword Forging Hall, boarded the car of the guardian elder, and set off for Xishan Col.
Xishan'ao is also a very familiar place to Xu Ke.
It's just that... Xishan'ao now is very different from before.
Today's Xishan'ao is no longer a temporary camp. It has also become a city, and the area covered by the formation has become wider.
The Feizhou battleship arrived at Xishan Col.
Xu Ke, Li Muzi and Mingfeng Zhenren, the three of them, together with the master of the Danding Palace who guards this place, as well as Xu Ke's old acquaintance, Peng Zhengqing, the former Bishuitanfang Zhengzhuang Yuting, the Sinong Palace Examination Department Wang Deacon, one by one Met in person.
Because they had to do business, they didn't exchange much greetings. They dispersed after meeting each other.
Xu Ke and others, led by Peng Zhengqing, arrived at the site of the incident.
"Yesterday evening, Cheng Mingzi launched the attack here."
Peng Zhengqing pointed to a cliff on the right side of Xishan Col and said, "He shot a Rainstorm Sword from the top of the cliff towards Xishan Col, but I stopped him with a formation."
"As soon as he missed a hit, he escaped with his sword. The Master of the Alchemy Palace immediately chased him, but he was out of reach. That's all I know."
After Peng Zhengqing finished speaking, he turned to look at Xu Ke and said with a smile: "We haven't seen you for a while, and Junior Brother Xu has become more and more unpredictable."
"Haha! There is nothing mysterious about it."
Xu Ke casually said modestly, without saying much, and turned to look at Master Mingfeng, "Uncle Master, let's go check it out first, okay?"
"Um!"
Master Mingfeng is not good at words. He basically doesn't speak much. Even if he does speak, he can only speak a few simple words.
It was obvious that he was professional at killing people, but don't expect him to do anything else.
So, Xu Ke, Master Mingfeng, and Li Muzi, who had followed to "open their eyes", walked out of the Xishan Col, flew through the air, and arrived at the location where Cheng Mingzi launched the attack.
Master Mingfeng stood with his sword in hand and placed himself in the position of "guard".
Naturally, only Xu Ke can make the decision regarding the investigation.
"Senior brother, how do you track the devil?"
Li Muzi came up and asked curiously.
"Even if I tell you, you won't learn!"
Xu Ke smiled and said, "You have the spiritual roots of light and fire, so you can't learn other spells."
"You say that as if I, a true disciple, have no ability."
Li Muzi curled his lips and said nothing more. After all, he had to do business and it was not the time for small talk.
Xu Ke took out a compass, waved a wave of spiritual power, and began to investigate.
Doesn’t it look simple?
For Xu Ke, it is indeed very simple.
According to the magic principle of the qi-watching technique, whatever spiritual power is used to cast the qi-watching technique can be used to detect the spiritual power.
Xu Ke burned the demon talisman on the compass, used his spiritual power to transform it into a wisp of demonic energy, and used the demonic energy to cast the qi-gazing technique, which easily solved the problem.
If another person were to operate it, it would not be possible.
Who among the ordinary monks can practice the Qi Watching Technique to the limit, and be able to detect even the faintest traces of demonic energy?
What's more, unless one is possessed by a demon, who can a normal monk control demonic energy?
Even if one is possessed by a demon and can control demonic energy, who of the normal demonic monks can use demonic energy to cast aura?
At this moment, Xu Ke controlled the compass and used the qi-gazing technique to track the demonic energy, and soon tracked the remaining demonic energy here.
Following the remaining demonic energy, Xu Ke raised his eyes and looked forward, and clearly "saw" the remaining traces of the demonic energy, extending far away, leaving an obvious "escape trajectory" in the sky.
"Over there, follow me."
Xu Ke pointed in the direction, waved his hand and released the flying sword "Guiyuan Sword". He rose up with the sword and chased him all the way, following the traces of the demonic energy.
Master Mingfeng said nothing, swayed, and also flew away with his sword, following Xu Ke.
"You won't wait for me either?"
Li Muzi's face was full of depression, and he also released the flying boat warship of the guardian elder and followed him in the flying boat.
"go back!"
Master Mingfeng turned his head and shouted at Li Muzi.
"Junior Sister Li, why are you following me?"
When Xu Ke heard the noise, he quickly stopped his sword escape and turned to look at Li Muzi, "You go back first! It's too dangerous, you can't go."
"Hehe, I'm just curious. Come and have a look."
Li Muzi stood on the Feizhou battleship and smiled sheepishly.
"The person we want to track is a Jindan sword cultivator. There is likely to be a fight between Jindan and Jindan later. With your level of cultivation, it is dangerous to watch the battle. Go back first!"
Xu Ke explained to Li Muzi and urged Li Muzi to go back.
"Then... aren't you also in danger?"
Li Muzi looked at Xu Ke with a worried face, "You are just practicing Qi..."
"I built the foundation!"
Xu Ke released a ray of All-Seeing Returning Sword Qi, and waves of spiritual power in the foundation-building realm rippled out.
"Ah? Have you already established a foundation?"
Li Muzi's eyes widened, "Who is the true disciple? Why do you feel...that I, a true disciple, can't compare to you at all?"
You’re not cheating, how can you compete with me?
Xu Ke smiled and said, "So, you have to practice harder! Go back quickly!"
"Okay! Then I'll go back."
Li Muzi waved his hand to Xu Ke, turned the flying boat around, turned around and flew towards Xishan Col.
Xu Ke nodded and saw Li Muzi returning to Xishan'ao, so he took Master Mingfeng to continue tracking.
Following the remaining traces of demonic energy, Xu Ke and Master Mingfeng pursued him for more than a thousand miles.
After pressing the escape button, Xu Ke stopped in a barren mountain southeast of Xishan Col, looked at the compass, and then turned to look around.
After tracking this point, you can’t detect any trace of demonic energy?
Xu Ke frowned tightly, how could the demonic energy suddenly disappear? This shouldn't be the case! Since Master Chengming has been transformed into the incarnation of the seven emotions...
Incarnation? Since it is an incarnation, it naturally has an ontology.
Xu Ke easily deduced a conclusion: the demon who manipulated Chengming had transferred his subject consciousness to other incarnations. He no longer controlled Chengming, but let Chengming find a secret place to sleep.
This caused the demonic energy to become silent in the golden elixir and no longer appear.
All the demonic energy converged into the golden elixir, leaving only a celestial demon talisman, which was difficult to detect.
Even if Xu Keming knew that the place where Master Chengming slept must be not far from this area, it would be difficult to trace it.
The sleeping Master Cheng Ming was in his original "corpse" form. He could not sense any vitality at all, nor could he sense any spiritual energy fluctuations. He was no different from a stone.
How can anyone find this?
Some trouble!
Xu Ke frowned tightly, something was a bit troublesome.
Just as he was thinking about it, at this time, the communication charm hanging on Xu Ke's waist rang.
"Xu Ke, people from the Manghe Sword Sect are here. Where are you?"
The call was connected, and the voice of the guardian elder came from inside.
"The position of the sundial, Keibiao Chensi, is two quarters and three minutes due south by east..."
"Stop! Stop! Change your words."
The elder protector felt his head hurt when he heard this string of Xuanmen magic and azimuth terms.
"Well……"
Xu Ke was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh. This was the spatial anchor point used to measure every location, leaving behind sequelae.
"Start from the south gate of Xishan Col, facing the third peak in front of you, and just walk straight ahead. After more than a thousand miles, you will arrive."
"Isn't that clear?"
The guardian elder grinned and said, "Just wait a moment, they will be here soon."
After saying that, the guardian elder hurriedly hung up the summons, not daring to talk to Xu Kedou at all. The pressure is too great, and the true face of "shallow knowledge" will be exposed if you are not careful.
Xu Ke put down the communication talisman and turned to look at Zhenren Mingfeng, who was on guard at the side. "Uncle Master, the people from the Manghe Sword Sect are coming. Let's wait here for a while."
"Um!"
The taciturn Master Ming Feng just said "hmm" and stopped making any move.
After waiting in place for a while, three escaping lights flew from the direction of Xishan Col.
A ray of water filled with light, the sharp edge was clearly revealed, it was obviously Youtan Zhenren, the golden elixir sword cultivator of the Manghe Sword Sect.
There was a blazing light on the left, and inside it was an old man sitting on the back of the machine beast. This must be Dayan Zhenren of Tiangong Pavilion.
The escape light on the right seems to have a complex and mysterious aura, showing the meaning of "yin and yang, cold and heat, deficiency and excess on the outside and inside". This must be the old... girlfriend of the master, Qihuang Valley Xinglin Fairy.
A moment later, three rays of light came through the air and landed in front of Xu Ke and the others.
"I've met three real people!"
Xu Ke bowed his hands to the three of them.
Master Mingfeng, who was not good at words, just cupped his hands without saying a word.
On the contrary, when he bowed his hands to Fairy Xinglin, Master Mingfeng smiled, obviously expressing his respect for his "sister-in-law".
"Haha, you're welcome."
Master Youtan walked up with a smile, "You two have been waiting for a long time."
Fairy Xinglin and Master Dayan next to them also nodded to Xu Ke and said hello.
Fairy Xinglin looked at Xu Ke and Mingfeng Master with very friendly eyes.
Dayan Zhenren is a bit lukewarm, with a bit of "intellectual arrogance".
Youtan Zhenren looks enthusiastic, but is actually distant.
However, it's just a "joint case investigation", and it's not about friendship. As long as the attitude is not bad, it doesn't matter.
"How's it going?"
Master Youtan asked Xu Ke with a smile.
"After tracing it here, there is no trace of the demonic energy."
Xu Ke held up the compass, and the pointer on it kept spinning in circles, unable to point to a clear direction at all.
"Can't detect it?"
Hearing Xu Ke's words, Master Youtan frowned tightly, "Your master, Master Mingyang, told us that you have a way to track him. Now tell me, you can't track him?"
"You use a compass to track the devil? What's the point of this?"
Dayan Zhenren obviously pays more attention to technical matters.
"Don't be impatient!"
Xu Ke smiled and said, "The demonic energy on Master Chengming's body is silent, which means that the devil who controls Master Chengming has transferred his main consciousness to other incarnations, and Master Chengming has fallen into a deep sleep."
"The place where he slumbers must be nearby. Because after his slumber, there are no fluctuations in vitality, spiritual power, and demonic energy, making it difficult to trace."
"I have two ways to solve this matter."
"The first way is more passive, and that is to wait."
"Now that Master Cheng Ming has come to the gravel field, he will definitely move out again. As long as he moves out again, he will not be able to escape."
The reason is simple. As long as he shows up, he will definitely be chased by Jin Dan Zhenren.
As long as he pursues, the demon will not dare to take back the demon consciousness that controls Master Cheng Ming. Even if he could escape, the traces of demonic energy would not escape Xu Ke's pursuit.
However, this method is too passive.
"The second way is to take the initiative and attract the devil's attention. As long as his consciousness turns here, he will be exposed to my eyes and he will not be able to escape."
When the demon tracking technology was not mature enough, technical shortcomings could only be made up for by IQ.
"Ah, very good!"
Master Youtan nodded slightly when he heard Xu Ke's "two countermeasures".
"good!"
Fairy Xinglin nodded in approval to Xu Ke, with a "motherly smile" on her face.
Is this the state of "the head teacher's wife"?
Xu Ke was a little helpless. It was a bit overwhelming for the elders to show their admiration when they saw that the younger generation was promising.
"How do you track demonic energy?"
Master Dayan obviously only cares about technical issues, "Master Chengming has never used the power of magic. He only used the Canglang Sword Technique to attack. He can't detect the magic at all. How can you use a compass to track the magic? What's the truth?"
"Master, how about we come down and exchange technology?"
Xu Ke smiled and said, "Let's do business first!"
"Uh...okay!"
Master Dayan nodded repeatedly, "After we're done, let's discuss technology."
"good!"
Xu Ke nodded and looked at Master Youtan again.
"The second strategy is to actively attract the attention of the devil, which requires the help of Master Youtan."
"Master Youtan, Master Chengming is said to have fallen in love with a woman. I wonder if your sect has an image of that woman?"
"You want this?"
Master Youtan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Indeed, there are. We found some image stones in Chengming's room, and they were all images of that woman. Why do you ask this?"
"I want to use this to attract the devil's attention."
Xu Ke said to Master Youtan: "If you have seen the photo stone and know what the woman looks like, please cast a spell to simulate that woman and let me take a look."
"No need to simulate it, I just have a shadow stone with me."
Master Youtan stretched out his hand and threw it, and a photographic stone fell into Xu Ke's hand, "Master Youquan ordered me to come. In addition to chasing Chengming, he also asked me to find out the whereabouts of this woman, so he gave me a photographic stone. stone."
"That would be perfect."
Xu Ke smiled, picked up the photo stone, and waved a wave of spiritual power.
The figure of a beautiful and charming woman appeared in the light and shadow manifested by the shadow stone.
With just one glance, Dayan's talent for calculation allowed Xu Ke to visually measure all the dimensions of this woman's body.
After waving his hand to close the image stone, Xu Ke returned the image stone to Master Youtan, and then...
Who will wear women's clothing?
It can't be me, right?
Turning to look at the Ming Feng master next to him, Xu Ke smiled and said, "Uncle Master, you don't mind if a man disguises himself as a woman, right?"
"What?"
The taciturn Master Ming Feng gave a rare exclamation.
"It's just an illusion. I don't really want you to dress as a woman."
Xu Ke didn't let Master Mingfeng distinguish it, so he directly used the miniature Golden Crow mecha as a "staff" and cast an illusion spell on Master Mingfeng.
In the next moment, Ming Feng, who was originally stronger than steel, instantly turned into a beautiful and charming woman.
"Pfft..."
This made Fairy Xinglin couldn't help laughing.
Next to them, Master Youtan and Master Dayan, their magic power was clearly swayed, and it took a lot of effort to hold back their laughter.
"Do you want to be beaten?"
The taciturn Master Mingfeng could no longer remain silent.
"Uncle Master! Think about it, if I were to transform into this woman and attract the devil's attention, I would definitely be the first target of the devil. Wouldn't I be very dangerous?"
Xu Ke had no choice but to talk nonsense, "Only you have this strength and can not be afraid of the sneak attack of Master Chengming. With such an important task, I can only ask you to take more care of it."
I don't believe you!
Master Mingfeng gritted his teeth, but showed a look of coquettishness. Fortunately there is no mirror, otherwise...
Fortunately, Master Mingfeng didn't shirk anymore, he just squeezed the sword hilt a little tighter.
"My dear fellows, can you hide your whereabouts?"
Xu Ke ignored Master Mingfeng, turned around, glanced at everyone, and said: "In addition, what we are tracking is the 'He transformed into a demon of freedom'. It is very sensitive to the seven emotions and six desires. All Masters must wear pure magic weapons."
"No problem, I have the Undercurrent Sword, which can hide my tracks. I also have the Pure Heart Talisman."
Master Youtan nodded, and with a flash of sword light, his whole person became invisible and traceless.
"It's no problem for me. I also have the Pure Heart Talisman."
Fairy Xinglin smiled, and with a flash of inspiration, her figure disappeared quietly like light smoke.
"A leaf blocks the eyes, and the mind is like still water."
Master Dayan took out a leaf-shaped magic weapon and shook it, and all the people and the machine beasts disappeared without a trace.
Then……
Master Mingfeng stood there, holding back two words for a long time, "No!"
He always kills people openly and openly. When did he do it secretly?
Well, you are the only one who is the most unprofessional.
Fortunately, you are the last person who needs to be invisible, and your emotions don't matter. Anyway, you are a "devil" and no one will believe you if you have any emotions.
then……
Xu Ke, a handsome young man, was accompanied by a charming woman. The two walked side by side, flying through the air, and occasionally chasing each other, looking like they were flirting.
These actions are actually not the key to attracting the devil, they are just to appear more real.
The real key to attracting the devil is that Xu Ke added a demon talisman to the illusion, so that the woman transformed by Master Mingfeng has the aura of a demon.
This demonic aura is the key.
The golden elixir of the sleeping Master Chengming also contains the Talisman of the Heavenly Demon. The Heavenly Demon must have left a sense in the body of Master Chengming.
He must be very sensitive to the aura of the same origin.
The demonic energy transformed by Xu Ke is definitely a little different from the demonic energy of the demon, but it is very similar, which makes it even more sensitive.
He found that a demon very similar to him appeared here. Would he feel strange or have doubts?
Could he have thought that there was another demon pretending to be him and coming to his territory to steal business?
Colleagues are enemies!
Has anyone heard of the custom of unity among demons?
How could he endure being "seized from the tiger's mouth"?
Therefore, he must come and take a look.
As long as he comes, he can't escape.
