Xianlu

Chapter 105
The word "return" sounded in Xu Dao's mind, which made him feel eager and longing. Almost immediately, he wanted to get out of the cave, run towards the direction of the bell, and listen to the baptism.

Fortunately, there was a glint of light in Xu Dao's eyes, and he hurriedly performed several pure heart spells that he had already practiced to suppress the inexplicable emotions in his heart.

But after thinking about it for a while, Xu Dao thought to himself: "If there is nothing wrong, it should be that the Taoist priests of the White Bones Temple are going to hold a Dao discussion conference and are calling the Taoist disciples in the temple to go."

Xu Dao was really looking forward to this conference, but when he heard the bewitching call, he couldn't help feeling a little vigilant.

But not long after, Xu Dao shook his head and began to pack his things in the cave.

With the Bone Temple as the center, hundreds of miles around are surrounded by a large array of mountain guards. The Taoists can't advance, they can't retreat, they are like chickens and dogs locked in a cage. Naturally, it is what the Taoist priests ordered. disciples had to do something.

The Dao Discussion Conference that is about to be held right now, at least it sounds like it is explaining the way of immortality, preaching and accepting karma, so it should be fine.

Xu Dao paced in the cave, first put all the unnecessary spiritual things in the 蚍乱笼, so that they might be exchanged with other Taoists later, and then put the things You Bing should get in the storage in the bag.

After the Dao Discussion Conference was over, Xu Dao was going to hand over the storage bag and all the spiritual objects inside to You Bing.

As for the remaining 2 talisman money and most of the spiritual objects, he placed them all in the cave, hiding them with formations, and left [-] qi-level gnats to guard the cave.

Everything was ready, Xu Dao checked again and again, and after confirming that he had nothing to miss, he carried the sword box on his back, waved his sleeve robe, and strode out of the cave.

Taoist priests appeared at the Dao Discussion Conference. According to the rules in the Temple of Bones, it is most appropriate for Taoists to go in the flesh.

At the same time, on the entire Baigu Mountain, many Taoist disciples ran out of the cave with excitement, especially rushing towards the courtyard, for fear of missing the meeting.

Of course, there are also those who looked astonished like Xu Dao, and they all lowered their heads and ran silently in the White Bone Mountain.

Xu Dao went straight all the way, and saw many other Taoists on the road.

He found that after 49 days of recuperation, all the Taoist disciples had a rainbow-like aura, and all of them seemed to have recovered from their injuries, and their magic power had greatly increased, which was quite a benefit.

Mixed among them, Xu Dao concealed his aura so that he was neither outstanding nor humble.

There were constant ghost soldiers along the way, without the control and control of the Taoist disciples, they wandered wantonly, and made low ghost cries, like sobbing.

Following the path in his memory, Xu Dao came to the black stone road in front of the hut. As soon as his heels landed, several figures swished around him, some of them were familiar and some were unfamiliar. Although they are different, they are all excited.

Especially a certain person, whose eyes were slightly red, and the tadpole-like runes in the eyeballs kept spinning, and the whole eyeball seemed to be shaking.

This person is exactly Mo Wen, who just happened to walk to the front of the hut together with Xu Dao.

As soon as Mo Wen saw Xu Dao, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and the other party hurriedly cupped his hands towards Xu Dao, and said, "I've met fellow Taoist!"

After being in Montenegro, seeing Fang Guanhai beaten to death by Xu Dao with his own eyes, Mo Wen already put Xu Dao on an equal footing in his heart.

And because Xu Dao still has a Immortal Ascension Fruit in his hand, in the eyes of the other party, although Xu Dao's actual cultivation level is not yet at the late stage of Qi refining, compared to those late stages of Qi Refining who failed to get the Immortal Ascension Fruit, it is much better. The potential is significantly greater.

Seeing the ink pattern, and the other party took the initiative to salute him, Xu Dao hurriedly bowed his hands, and said in his mouth: "I have seen the ink pattern Taoist."

"Seeing fellow daoist's complexion, I think I've gained a lot from this one-month-long practice. If fellow daoist gets rich in the future, don't forget about poor daoism." With a smile on his face, Mowen joked with Xu Dao said.

Everyone was carrying the sedan chairs, and Xu Dao also said, "When Senior Brother Mo Wen achieves foundation building and ranks among the Taoist priests, then don't forget about me."

"Haha!" Hearing Xu Dao's kind words, the tattoo on Mo Wen's face jumped, and he laughed loudly.

The two chatted for a while, Mo Wen spoke first, and said expectantly:

"The Dao masters are about to hold a Dao Discussion Conference. Since I joined the temple, I have met the Dao Masters several times and listened to their lessons, but I have not participated in this 'Dao Discussion Conference'. Hurry up! Being late will make the priests unhappy!"

Seeing that Mowen was so impatient, and that although the aura on the opponent's body was solid, it was still in the stage of refining Qi. Xu Dao guessed that this person didn't know how to refine the Immortal Fruit, nor did he know how to build a foundation. There is anticipation and eagerness.

In the time between the two of them speaking a few words, several figures around them rushed towards them, and then they all hurried towards the courtyard.

Before Xu Dao could answer, Mowen also took the lead, rushing forward in small steps.

Xu Dao paused for a while, and followed the other party into the courtyard.

The buildings inside and outside the courtyard remained the same as before, with a towering hall and numerous halls, but the rooms that were supposed to be brightly lit and open day and night were now pitch-black and lifeless.

Only the Taoist disciples who rushed here from the cave, walked on the black stone slab, and stepped on the sound of their footsteps.

This is because although the Black Mountain God Banquet has ended, the Taoist priests in the temple have not brought back the Taoist boys who were left in the mortal towns.

Stepping into the courtyard, like the previous two gatherings, 67 Taoists came one after another, and all of them stood obediently in the open space in the center of the courtyard.

It's just that before leaving the mountain, there were nearly 67 Taoist disciples standing in the courtyard, but now there are only [-]. The space suddenly seems much wider, which can accommodate Taoist disciples to move around and come and go at will.

Even so, all the Taoists had their heads stuck, not to mention walking and chatting with each other, and few even looked around.

Instead, Xu Dao looked around and found You Bing, who happened to be looking for him too.

The location of the two was not too close, and the Taoist priests did not know when they would arrive, so they greeted each other from a distance, and then settled down, waiting for the start of the Dao Discussion Conference.

The 67 disciples came together, and none of them was vacant. They stood in the empty and dark courtyard, and they didn't know what the other person was thinking in their hearts, but it could be seen that the minds of the 67 people were not calm.

Slowly, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and only a hole in the mountain protection array of the Temple of White Bones was exposed, which attracted the moonlight from the outside world, and then just fell on the open space of the courtyard.

The moonlight falls sparsely, floating like goose feathers.

Xu Dao stared at the black stone slab on the ground, trying to find an ant in the temple, but it was a pity that there were probably dozens of living creatures like them in the whole temple of bones.

Suddenly, Xu Dao noticed that the black shadow on the stone slab was shaking, and a sharp and ferocious shadow slowly stretched out, and then stood on both sides of the courtyard.

There were also sharp-eyed and keen-minded Taoists who, like Xu Dao, noticed the changes in the black shadows on the ground.

After a while, the scene became strangely quiet. The 67 disciples all lowered their heads, or stared at the changes in the shadows on the slate with their eyes widened, or closed their eyes slightly, and used their minds to perceive the changes in the surrounding atmosphere.

"Jie Jie Jie!" A Taoist couldn't help but let out a strange laugh, and the huge figure swayed near the courtyard wall, so strange.

Several other Taoist priests also made noises one after another, either chatting, or knocking on the courtyard wall with their sharp claws, like people knocking on a dining table.

The sound of teeth grinding, knocking, bricks falling, and the whistling wind sounded all of a sudden.

Listening to the movement of several Taoist priests, the Taoist disciples below became quieter and more nervous.

Suddenly, as if time stood still, all the surrounding noises were stopped, and the figures of several Taoist priests also shook, and then stood upright around the wall.

They counted their breaths quietly, and shouted in unison: "I have seen Sandu!"

"Meet Hu Duchu!", "Meet Yuan Dushu!", "Meet Liu Duguan!"

As soon as the call sounded, the Taoist priests present realized that someone with a higher status than the five Taoist priests had appeared.

After several cries were heard, Xu Dao and the others knew that the three capitals of the Temple of Bones had arrived.

There was no huge black shadow on the ground of the hut, only three dots appeared, it didn't look like a giant came.

Xu Dao thought about it for a while, he thought that the Taoist priests did not release their aura to overwhelm the crowd, nor did they issue a warning, so they secretly raised their eyes and glanced up.

Because he was not standing in the middle, but close to the edge, Xu Dao could clearly see the scene in mid-air without raising his head obviously.

Around the hut, just like before, stood several familiar huge bodies.

At this time, these bodies all lowered their heads, making a gesture of saluting their heads.

And the objects they saluted were three emaciated figures, humanoid, not tall enough.

These are three Taoists of different shapes, wearing yellow, white, and red Taoist robes respectively. One is fat and the other is thin, and there is another person who is neither fat nor thin.

"Sandu!"

Xu Dao recalled the voices of the five Taoist priests, and he began to calculate in his heart:

"In the Bone Temple, there is a saying that 'one temple, three capitals, five masters and eighteen heads', the 'three capitals' are the three mountains that command the whole temple, and their status and magic power are only inferior to the temple master."

"It is rumored that Guanzhu was in the late stage of foundation establishment many years ago, and Sandu is in the middle stage of foundation establishment. Although these three Taoists do not have much momentum, judging from the current situation, their cultivation and strength must be Far higher than the five master priests."

For a while, Xu Dao wanted to remember more news about Sandu, but unfortunately, although these three Taoists were supposed to be in charge of all aspects of Taoism in name, they showed up less than the five Taoists.

Xu Dao only identified the fat Taoist in yellow robes as Hu Duchu based on rumors, the thin Taoist in white robes as Yuan Dushu, and the neither fat nor thin red robed Taoist as Liu Duguan.

He glanced at the Mowen Taoist next to him, and found that the other party was also peeking at the three Taoists on the top, and he also had a look of surprise and strangeness on his face.

Combining what Mo Wen said before entering the courtyard, it is obvious that the other party, like Xu Dao, is the Sandu Taoist priest who saw the Bone Temple for the first time.

I just don't know if all the 67 Taoist priests at the scene are the same as Xu Dao. I have never seen Sandu Taoist priests before.

The Sandu Taoist priest from the Temple of the White Bones appeared on top of the crowd, and returned salutes to the five surrounding Taoist priests, with different voices and expressions.

"I have seen you fellow Daoists!"

"These days are really troublesome for you all!"...

When Gongyang, Linghu and other Taoist priests heard this, they quickly shook their heads and shouted: "Don't bother, don't bother!"

After the Taoist priests had finished seeing the salute, laughter suddenly came from the top, which was said to the Taoist disciples: "All disciples, raise your heads, don't act like a quail!"

When Xu Dao heard this, he immediately looked up and found that among the Taoist priests in Sandu, Hu Duchu was bare-chested and only wearing a Taoist robe.

His body is broad and thick, and his figure is fat and solid. He patted his own big belly, his eyes were narrowed with a smile, and he was lowering his head, talking to the disciples below in a kind manner.

As soon as this person spoke, the 67 people in the courtyard raised their heads one after another, looking up at the three Taoists on top.

They found that the three Taoists were all sitting cross-legged on a pitch-black cloud, about ten feet above the ground, with different expressions and behaviors, either sitting upright or idle.

Immediately, the voices of the Taoists sounded: "See Sandu!"

"I've seen Sandu Taoist!"

After all the shouts were over, a skinny Taoist, that is, the voice of Yuan Du, rang out from the top again. He ignored the Taoists, but said to the Taoist next to him:
"The moonlight is good tonight. I haven't seen you for more than ten years. Why don't we have a feast under the moonlight and have a good time?"

The fat Taoist laughed and said, "Brother Daoist's words are very kind, the moonlight should be bright today!"

"My old Liu has no opinion!"

"Good!" The skinny Taoist applauded.

He took a deep breath, exhaled suddenly and leisurely, and then exhaled: "Yun Lai!"

Hoo hoo!A gust of wind blew past, condensed water into dew, and condensed air into frost.

Standing on the black stone slab, Xu Dao suddenly felt that his feet were chilly. When he looked down, he saw wisps of white mist growing under his feet.

In an instant, white mist billowed on the black slate, and in a short while it formed a thick cloud of smoke.

Xu Dao swayed, suddenly felt his feet go soft, his eyes raised, it turned out that he was stepping on the clouds and rising slowly.

The 66 Taoist disciples around him also stepped on the clouds and lifted into the sky like him.

The crowd rose more than ten feet into the air, and the distance between them and the three Taoist priests on the top was shortened. The height difference was only half a foot, and they were even with the five priests who were in charge of the courtyard around them.

At this time, the voice of the skinny Taoist came again: "Everyone sit down."

Hearing this, before the 67 Taoists saluted, they all fell down and sat directly on the clouds.

At this time, another voice sounded: "Although the moonlight is beautiful tonight, it's not too big. How can you enjoy yourself if it's not too big?"

It was the fat Taoist Hu Duchu who was talking. He patted his belly, and suddenly stretched out his hand to catch the bright moon on the top, and then pulled it down again.

The white moon seemed to be pulled by an invisible rope, whirring and falling, its size soared hundreds of times, several feet high, hanging directly beside everyone like a screen.

In an instant, the faces of the people in the Temple of the Bone were all whitened by the moonlight, as white as paper.
