Half a month later
The night sky in Shengdan City is exceptionally bright. Countless stars dot the dark night, reflecting each other and shining brightly, making it look so gorgeous.
The moon is at the top of the sky, bright and gentle. The mirror-like crescent moon hangs in the dark night. The moonlight, as clear as spring water, pours down from the dome, as soft as silk that has just been cleaned, passing through the half-covered curtain. The curtains gracefully flowed into a classical room, adding a touch of brilliance to the room that was extremely dark due to nightfall.
In the room, under the moonlight, a young man in white clothes, who was as beautiful as a fairy under the moon, was sitting cross-legged on a futon with his eyes closed.
There is no energy fluctuation in the young man's body, but there is an ethereal aura emanating from him, which seems to give people a vague and unreal feeling.
When he felt the gentle moonlight caressing his cheek like the gentle caress of the Moonlight Goddess, the young man's eyes, which had been closed for half a month because his consciousness was immersed in the sea of soul, trembled slightly, and then he heard a "swish" , suddenly opened.
As his eyes opened, a sharp silver light flashed out from his eyes, like the sharpest blade in the world, and instantly struck the wall in front of the young man.
A violent "stuck" sound was heard, and an obvious crack suddenly appeared in the breath-isolating defensive restraint that the young man had set up half a month ago.
"A soul with a perfect spiritual realm, coupled with the blessing of Taiyin Qi, can be pushed at will. Even my formation is somewhat difficult to resist and is about to collapse. Yes, but the range of the soul realm this time is too large, which is a bit difficult. It takes some getting used to taking control.”
Looking at the cracks on the restraint in front of him that were still cracking open, the young man felt that it was deeper than half a month ago, as if it contained an abyss. A trace of satisfaction flashed through his heart-stirring dark eyes, and he murmured secretly in his heart. At the same time, he couldn't help but lift the corners of his mouth slightly, outlining an extremely beautiful arc.
This person is the soul Changqing who has been in seclusion for half a month. At this moment, his soul realm has officially entered the realm of spiritual perfection, and he is only a thin line away from the mysterious heavenly realm soul.
"Mr. Lin! What happened inside? How are you?"
"Master, say something quickly! Otherwise I will rush in!"
Just as Hun Changqing was thinking in his mind, two crisp and delicate voices, with different styles but both carrying a hint of anxiety, came from outside the room.
The people outside the door were Feng Qing'er and Zi Yan. Since their rooms were adjacent to Hun Changqing, the noise Hun Changqing made just now was also quite large. They were immediately sensed by the two women and ran away quickly. Came over and asked.
"Miss Qing'er, Ziyan, come in."
When Hun Changqing heard the shout outside the door, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to erase the restriction covering the room, and then said to the door.
As Hun Changqing's words fell, there was a hurried sound of pushing the door open, and then two girls, one big and one small, rushed to Hun Changqing's face with anxious expressions.
"Mr. Lin, what happened just now? Is there anything wrong with you?"
Feng Qing'er looked at Hun Changqing nervously and asked with concern. Although Zi Yan didn't say anything, the worry in his eyes was obvious. After all, they had clearly agreed to watch the Dan Meeting together. .
As a result, Hun Changqing suddenly locked himself in the room without saying a word. The preliminaries of the Dan Club were over and there was still no movement. But just now there was a burst of terrifying movement. The terrifying soul fluctuations made the two women's There was a violent throbbing in the depths of their souls, which made them feel relieved, so they hurried over to ask.
"What can I do? It's just that I made some gains at the trade fair, so I stayed in seclusion for a few days. I couldn't help but try a new power just now, but I didn't expect to attract you."
Seeing the worried and nervous expressions of the two girls, Hun Changqing couldn't help but smile, so he started to explain.
"It scared me to death. The soul wave just now was so terrifying. I thought you were possessed, Master?"
After hearing Hun Changqing's explanation, Ziyan's face softened, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. His delicate little hands kept patting his small chest, looking like he was in danger, and he said happily.
After hearing Zi Yan's words, Hun Changqing's originally very relaxed face suddenly darkened, and he struck Zi Yan's head with a knife.
"boom!"
"Ouch!"
Ziyan's eyes were wide open at this moment, and there was mist brewing in those purple gem-like eyes. He covered his head with his hands, looked at Hun Changqing with aggrieved face, and asked with a pout.
"Master, why did you hit me again?"
"Why do you think I hit you? Can't you hope that I'll be better? Either I'm obsessed with this or that. Even if I'm fine, sooner or later I'll be cursed by you and something will happen."
Hun Changqing looked at Ziyan faintly and said angrily.
"Don't they care about you?"
Ziyan touched his head, still looking aggrieved, but his voice was weaker and not as energetic as before.
Hun Changqing glanced at Ziyan briefly, and was too lazy to pay attention to her anymore. He turned to look at Feng Qing'er and said with a chuckle.
"Miss Qing'er, the original intention of this trip to Danta was to have fun with you, but I didn't expect that it would last for several days without realizing it, and it would make you worried. I'm ashamed of myself."
Feng Qing'er's pretty face turned slightly rosy when she heard this, and the mood in her heart that had been depressed for half a month because of Soul Changqing's sudden retreat suddenly became clearer, and she quickly waved her hand and said.
"Master Lin, just be fine! We cultivators should put cultivation as our top priority. Master Lin, there is no need to apologize to Qing'er! What we missed was just the preliminaries of the Dan Club, and there are two more levels to come.
The first level is a fantasy level. There is a strange magical beast called "Phantom Soul Beast" blocking the competition. The overlapping spaces will also form obstacles. It is easy to get lost in it. Only by passing After passing this level of fantasy level, you can enter the next level in a space called Dan Realm.
Before entering the elixir world, the contestants will be assigned an elixir recipe. Only when they find enough elixirs in the elixir world to refine the elixir recorded on the elixir recipe can they come out to accept the final round of refining the elixir.
The subsequent process of the Dan Meeting was much more exciting and intense than the elimination qualifying round that tested soul qualifications that we missed. It was also more entertaining and interesting to watch, so Mr. Lin doesn’t have to blame himself! "
Listening to Feng Qing'er's words full of longing and looking forward to watching the grand ceremony with her, Hun Changqing also smiled slightly and nodded softly.
"In that case, let's wait until the alchemy meeting officially starts tomorrow. I will go with Miss Qing'er to watch it. I am also looking forward to seeing whether this alchemy meeting is as interesting as Miss Qing'er said."
Hun Changqing agreed. Although he cheated Gu Xun'er at the trade fair before, Hun Changqing didn't particularly care. Gu Xun'er's goal was the championship reward of the Dan Society, Three Thousand Thunder Flames. .
Taking into account the influence of Danta, she would not break out into a conflict with herself at this time. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened, she would have lost both the sesame seeds and the watermelons. The evergreen soul believed that Gu Xun'er should not It would be so unwise.
This is also the reason why Hun Changqing did not leave Shengdan City directly after cheating Gu Xun'er before, but now he also plans to accompany Feng Qing'er to watch this alchemy meeting, and only needs to wait for the end of the alchemy meeting before leaving. , this will not cause any conflict with Gu Xun'er again.
When Feng Qing'er heard this, she felt happy and looked forward to tomorrow even more. Then she suppressed the excitement in her heart and smiled at Hun Changqing.
"I guess Mr. Lin's cultivation has improved and needs to be consolidated. Qing'er will go back first so as not to disturb Mr. Lin's rest. Qing'er will call for Mr. Lin tomorrow."
Hun Changqing also smiled and nodded when he heard this, and then watched Feng Qing'er take Zi Yan's little hand, and led Zi Yan out of Hun Changqing's room, regardless of Zi Yan's eyes that looked back and resentful from time to time.
Watching the two girls leave, Hun Changqing chuckled and shook his head. Then he no longer cared about it, but slowly closed his eyes again, sinking his consciousness into the sea of souls, and adapted to himself. The strength of the soul today.
The moment Hun Changqing closed his eyes, the majestic soul power spread out from the center of his eyebrows like a tide and extended out of the room.
The power of the soul spread like water waves in the gorgeous night sky. However, when the land of soul spread to somewhere in Shengdan City, a strong energy fluctuation caused a slight tremor in the power of the soul. .
In an instant, Hun Changqing's eyes in the room suddenly opened, he stood up and looked somewhere, with a strange look flashing in his eyes.
"There's something familiar about it..."
Hun Changqing murmured softly, then took out a black robe from the ring, put it on, shrouded himself in darkness again, and then turned into a dark phantom, flashing towards the place he was looking at. Sweep away.
…
In a remote dense forest on the outskirts of Shengdan City, Hun Changqing came looking for what he had sensed just now. He felt several terrifying and majestic auras rising up in front of him like a torrent, and his face condensed slightly. The Taiyin Breath Condensation Art was secretly running in the body, and then he jumped up and landed silently on an ancient tree in front of him.
Hun Changqing's hidden figure, after confirming that it was correct, looked towards an open space ahead, and saw three men in black robes confronting four men in exquisite alchemist robes.
The slightly familiar aura that Hun Changqing sensed before was emanating from the leader among the black-robed figures.
"Sure enough, from the people in the Soul Palace, this aura should be that old guy Mu Gu. It seems that his mission this time is to get the three thousand thunder flames, but it seems that he was stopped by Danta and the others. "
Hun Changqing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but secretly guess that when he was still performing tasks in the Soul Palace, he happened to be in the same branch hall as Old Man Mu Gu.
Although he was weak at that time and had no interaction with Old Man Mu Gu, he had met several times and could recognize his aura. After sensing it just now, Hun Changqing was a little curious about what Old Man Mu Gu was up to. , simply came to investigate, and when he saw the people below talking, Hun Changqing quickly pricked up his ears.
"Jie Jie... Dan Pagoda recruits alchemists from all over the world to come to participate in the alchemy meeting, but why does it block us from the Holy Dan City? Could it be that we can't afford to lose?"
Old Man Mugu spoke hoarsely, smiling strangely towards the leader opposite.
"My Alchemy Pagoda naturally welcomes all outstanding alchemists in the world, but your Soul Palace is well-known, so I really need to keep a closer eye on you. It's natural for you to come to the Alchemy Conference, but if you want to do some small tricks, I I will never let it go.”
A vicissitudes of voice slowly sounded from the air of the leading old man. There was a strong energy in the voice, which made the surrounding trees roar, and a majestic breath also came from there. The energy spurted out from the old body, and for a moment it was as powerful as a rainbow.
This aura made Hun Changqing, who was watching from a distance, secretly frightened. The strength of this old man was absolutely terrifying, and even Hun Changqing did not have the absolute confidence to suppress him.
"What a strong tone, Xuan Kongzi, do you...have this strength?"
Feeling the aura on Xuan Kongzi's body, Old Man Mu Gu's face darkened slightly, and a strong killing intent immediately spurted out from his body, and he spoke to Xuan Kongzi in an extremely cold voice.
"Hmph, twenty years ago, those of your staff who dared to come to Cholera Holy Pill City were as arrogant as you. Didn't they all fall into my hands in the end? If you also want to try, I will naturally do the same. Stay with me until the end."
Facing the strong murderous aura in the old man Mu Gu, Xuan Kongzi's face was extremely calm and he spoke lightly.
"Hmph, those people back then were nothing more than trash. By killing them, you were just saving some unnecessary resources for our Soul Palace. But whatever, I am here just to attend the alchemy meeting. I’m too lazy to talk nonsense with you, let’s go!”
Old Man Mu Gu snorted coldly, unwilling to tangle too much with Xuan Kongzi. He waved his hands to the two people behind him, and entered the Holy Pill City under the eyes of Xuan Kongzi and others.
Xuan Kongzi looked at the back of the old man Mu Gu, with a faint light flowing in his eyes. He didn't know what he was thinking about. After stagnating for a moment, Xuan Kongzi disappeared here with the other Danta elders.
"rustle"
After Xuan Kongzi and the others left, there was another rustling sound in the quiet open space, and then a dark Taoist figure slowly walked out of the darkness.
Looking at the direction Xuan Kongzi was leaving, Hun Changqing narrowed his eyes slightly. The pair of white jade-like palms hidden in the dark sleeves had been clenched secretly at some unknown time, and they were filled with a bluish-white color. The murderous intention that was much stronger than that of Old Man Mu Gu was rising crazily on him at this moment, and there was no intention of stopping at all.
"Twenty years ago... Soul Palace... Holy Pill City..."
Hun Changqing kept murmuring in a low voice. His eyes were now stained with a layer of madness, flashing with infiltrating scarlet blood. The murderous intention in his heart at this moment had completely exceeded that when the soul wind hit him hard. At this time, he only has one thought in his mind now, he wants to kill someone! He wanted to see...a river of blood!
"Xuan Kongzi... Jie Jie Jie"
Hun Changqing stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, and then suddenly burst out with a sinister and strange laughter, and an evil and strange smile also appeared on Hun Changqing's face, making his extremely charming smile appear at this moment. The beautiful face makes people feel extremely frightened.
