Please call me Huanxian

Chapter 262 Cut Again

Above the sea, a middle-aged woman with white hair swung a cane behind her.

The emerald green leaves exploded with "bang" and "bang", mist swirled around, and countless palm-sized green blades whistled and shuttled, forcing the two fourth-floor monks who were chasing them to temporarily avoid the attack and use magic weapons to resolve and resist.

The sea water below rolled back more than ten feet, like a dragon emerging from the water, ready to pounce, with a mighty sound.

The white-haired woman did not want to fight and threw the crutch in her hand into the air. She turned into a misty green light and followed the crutch through the air, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

"Don't chase after a desperate enemy. Gather the green mist demonic energy she left behind and make dozens of 'monster-hunting needles' to distribute. Next time she dares to show up, we can set up a demon-trapping formation to deal with her. It's up to us to kill her or capture her, isn't it?"

"Brother An is right. That witch came from the sea area of ​​Xiyuezhou and injured many of our patrolling monks along the way. It seems that she is fleeing to Dingzhou. We should give a warning to Dingzhou Xiyuan in advance and must not let her escape without a trace."

"A few days ago, Xiyuan from Dingzhou sent us a message, asking us to keep an eye out for a middle-aged man in the fourth floor named Zeng Wang."

"The troubled times are coming, and the rats are running rampant. It's really abominable."

As they talked, they casually collected the green blades in the mist that were scattered in the air and condensed them into fine needles thinner than a hair.

The white-haired woman appeared three hundred miles above the sea, leaning on a crutch in her hand, coughing a few times with her hands covering her mouth, looking around, and continued to fly southwest. When the sun set, she was about eight thousand miles away from Dingzhou.

The sea waves are dyed with the setting sun, and the whole scene is desolate.

The white-haired woman turned and flew to an island hundreds of miles in size to the west.

A group of cultivators flew into the air, and the leader was a sword cultivator from the fourth floor of Forget Sword Mountain. He had a sword on his back and his arms were much longer than those of an ordinary person. He walked forward alone, looking at the white-haired woman with magic without hesitation, and said, "What's your name, fellow Taoist? Are you visiting me or are you here to serve me?"

He saw that the white-haired woman was a demon and not a human.

The white-haired woman coughed twice and said, "Could you please help me contact two friends first? Then I will decide whether to serve you or not?"

The sword-carrying man looked very polite. The war was about to start. In this extraordinary period, some masters who committed crimes had nowhere to hide and chose to serve in other continents. He said, "Fellow Daoist, please tell me. Yan is willing to help."

Zeng Shanlang fell behind everyone and stood guard.

He recognized the white-haired woman at a glance. It was the Grandma Jiao Teng whom he had met twice when he was on the journey of hard work and entered the secret realm of flowers. Her appearance had changed a little and she was no longer as old as before, but her overall features had not changed much. He was deeply impressed by the lifelike dragon-shaped vine crutch.

After a moment's hesitation, he sent a message to the captain, Deacon Gu, beside him, about the identity and origin of the white-haired woman.

"Please send a message to fellow Taoist Wu Yao of Qingli Mountain in Wuqiu Mountain Region and Xu Yuanchang of Daning Dynasty to help me, Jiao Teng, verify my identity so that I can serve you with confidence."

There was a hint of helplessness in the white-haired woman's words.

She had very bad luck. When she traveled to the human world from the Secret Realm of Flowers, she started out from Dingzhou, passed through Laizhou and Wangxianzhou, and arrived at Xiyuezhou without any obstructions. She traveled around the mountains and rivers, and later heard the discussions of scattered monsters. She encountered the "chance" of the dark world door opening, which happens once every three thousand years.

She used to be in charge of a secret realm. Having heard about the dangers of opening the gate to the dark world, she quickly fled to a remote island.

Trying to use the power of the demon plant to avoid the limelight, at least for the next few decades.

However, within five years, she was discovered by patrolling monsters from Xiyuezhou. She ruthlessly killed several monster cultivators to silence them, but it still alarmed the fifth-order monster from Xiyuezhou and they chased her. She had to hide from place to place and had nowhere to stay.

She had no choice but to cross the sea, fighting and killing, and escape back to Dingzhou in a panic.

The sword-carrying man had received the message from Deacon Gu, and had a brief chat with Zeng Shanlang behind him. Then he smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Jiao Teng, you came at the right time. A young friend recognized you."

The white-haired woman looked at the young man who was clasping his fists and bowing behind her and felt that he looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that the young man's face did not change much as he grew up. She asked, "Are Fellow Daoist Liu and Fellow Daoist Xu all right?"

Zeng Shanlang replied, "Master and Aunt Liu are both fine. Thank you for your concern."

When I first saw Grandma Jiao Teng, she just used her vine crutch to emit a magnificent colorful light and bright rays of light, and suppressed several third-floor monks without any ability to fight back. How awe-inspiring her divine power was.

When they met again a few years later, he was in a miserable and injured state.

This is what Master meant when he said, “Human power is limited and cannot defeat the overwhelming trend.”

Have a brief conversation.

The sword-carrying man smiled and invited: "Fellow Daoist Jiao Teng, please rest assured on the nearby island. I will send a message to Xiyuan right away. Please tell Xiyuan to pass on the message to fellow Daoist Wuyao and Elder Xu. You can expect a reply by tomorrow morning at the latest."

The white-haired woman bowed and thanked him. There were a few small islands nearby and she also needed to rest and recover.

A talismanic light broke through the sky from the south.

The sword-carrying man took a moment to check, raised the yellow talisman, and said, "Hezhou has sent a message to Xiyuan, informing Daoist Jiao Teng of your movements, and asking Dingzhou to cooperate... I wonder if you can kill the cultivator from Hezhou?"

Fellow Daoist Jiao Teng sighed in his heart, these few years were a period of internal cleansing before the war.

She risked sacrificing her skills and was able to hide for decades at the bottom of the sea, but it was not worth it.

With the help of fellow Taoist Wu Yao and Xu Yuanchang to verify her identity, she can devote herself to serving Dingzhou and go through the trials of life and death. She does not have to worry about being used as a gun by humans, and perhaps she can break through to the fifth level soon.

With her vision, she could see that even though Xu Yuanchang's cultivation was not high, he would definitely be able to make a name for himself. She didn't expect that he had already risen to the position of elder.

She didn't announce Liu Xianfeng's name because she knew that demons and ghosts had no status in the human territory.

"I injured more than ten intercepting monks without causing any loss of life. I also killed three patrolling sea monsters in the Xiyuezhou Sea."

"That's fine. The demons from Xiyuezhou can't reach Dingzhou."

The big man with the sword on his back laughed heartily and extended his hand to invite him in.

……

After receiving the message from Senior Brother Wu Zhe, Xu Yuanchang immediately called Liu Xianfeng. The two discussed for a while and then reported to Senior Brother Wu about the identity and background of Grandma Jiao Teng. He was willing to act as a guarantor for Grandma Jiao Teng and requested that Grandma Jiao Teng be recruited to help in the Monster Catching Mountain.

He had received news from his apprentice in advance.

The next day is the Lantern Festival.

Gu Yunzhu went home to stay for a few days, and it was already night when she returned to the valley.

I went to the yard to pay a visit to the Taoist priest, sat down and talked for a few words. As it was getting dark, the Taoist priest lit the oil lamp and said goodbye and returned to his tree house.

As the full moon rose in the east, the girl sat cross-legged and regulated her breathing and practiced qigong.

The room was filled with light, like rippling water, and a sapphire blue starlight appeared in the center of his forehead.

When the moon was full in the sky, the starlight on his forehead suddenly echoed mysteriously with the starry sky outside. Spots of fluorescent light fell from the sky, and when they approached the ground, they were invisible and traceless, and all sank into the tree house.

Xu Yuanchang and Liu Xianfeng were alarmed and flew into the air, witnessing the strange sights in the sky.

"What kind of skill is Yunzhu practicing? It can actually move the stars and celestial phenomena."

"I don't know. I never asked her."

Xu Yuanchang transmitted the message: "She has an extraordinary origin and is considered a person who is destined to suffer a calamity. I don't think she will stay in the lower world for long."

Taoist Master Yanshan has great magical powers, and he has made many back-up plans. As long as Gu Yunzhu does not die in the dark world, he will ascend to the upper world when the catastrophe is over.

His silly nephew who had never experienced any danger was doomed to end up with nothing.

Liu Xianfeng was shocked and said with a naughty smile: "Thank you, Brother Xu, for reminding me. I will get close to Sister Yunzhu and take advantage of her in the future."

As they were talking and laughing, the starlight that was drawn down from the sky suddenly disappeared. Xu Yuanchang transmitted a message: "Let's go down. Yunzhu has been able to hide the abnormal phenomenon of practicing. It has a very sharp perception."

The next morning, Gu Yunzhu came to pay her respects and had a secret conversation with Taoist Master Xu for half an hour.

When leaving, Xu Yuanchang personally saw him off to the gate of the courtyard.

Neither of them thought there was anything wrong.

Over the next ten days, Gu Yunzhu was busy on the hillsides and in the valleys, cooking two meals a day. In the afternoon, she consulted the Taoist priest about inscriptions on bronze and jade characters, and in the evening she practiced martial arts. She maintained a close but not intimate relationship with Xu Shengtian, who spent a lot of time practicing and reading.

Although her cultivation seemed to have not improved, Xu Shengtian was actually feeling the pressure.

Before the end of the month, a neighbor came to ask for help. Gu Yunzhu took the old yellow dog out for a walk and caught a house ghost late at night. He then threw it into the ground and disposed of it.

In early February, Xu Yuanchang led Liu Xianfeng, Gu Yunzhu, Xu Shengtian and a group of people on a trek northward, bypassing the Xianqiao Mountain area and arriving at Dengxianguan after three days. They registered and issued identity cards to the three of them to facilitate their future travel.

The huge Dengxianguan is empty and sparsely populated, giving it a rather desolate feel.

There was only one monk from the third floor, the temple master Zhou Ruchang, who was in charge of daily affairs. All the other brothers and sisters from the third floor went to the capital, taking half of the disciples from the second floor with them.

Xu Yuanchang took the three of them to the library and they stayed in Dengxianguan for ten days to read books.

Then he sent Xu Shengtian, who had gained something, to travel outside. If he wanted to come back to Dengxianguan in the future, he could come back anytime.

After saying goodbye to the abbot, Xu Yuanchang and his three companions headed south. Without having to consider Xu Shengtian's feelings, they flew back to Xianqiao Mountain in most of the day. Gu Yunzhu was already able to fly.

Xu Yuanchang checked the geomancy map in the sky and found the valley of Shenxian Cave, and then found the location of the low mountain that suppressed Wei Yu.

"Xu boy, more than ten years have passed since we parted at the Immortal Cave. Your cultivation has improved rapidly. Tell me, who noticed the clues when I placed my clone in the tree spirit's Seven Apertures and Delicate Heart Aperture and ruined my good deeds?"

Wei Yu's voice came clearly from the bottom of the mountain.

There is a bit of rebelliousness.

Xu Yuanchang slowly circled over the hill, checking the direction, and said with a smile: "Wei Yu, on behalf of the Sitian Palace, I am making a routine inquiry. Will you hand over the mission disk in your hand? You only have 25 miles of territory under your control. You have less than 50 years left. Even ants try to survive, so why would you want to waste your life?"

He didn't answer Wei Yu's question at all.

He deliberately used rhetoric to confuse Wei Yu, who was still unaware of the situation, in order to find the best opportunity to strike.

The setting sun gradually sank, dusk fell, and the mountains in the distance looked like silhouettes.

Liu Xianfeng and Gu Yunzhu came along to watch the fun, but there was no need for them to take action. Without the suppression device, they could not help with their current strength.

"Haha, you are nothing. Even if I hand over the life disk, can you guarantee that my life will be safe?"

Wei Yu laughed wildly for a while, then suddenly changed the subject and said, "Xu kid, this is not the first or second time we have dealt with each other. Back then, you were able to resist the Nine-Layered Illusion Mountain cast by my clone with your humble cultivation of the Second Floor. I have a little respect for you. Why don't we talk about a deal that will benefit both of us?"

Xu Yuanchang used his spiritual sense to visualize the location of the mountain for the rabbit to see.

He was not going to use the method Elder Mei had instructed.

"Oh, tell me. As long as you don't let me let you go now, we can talk about anything. There are no taboos."

"Okay, I like dealing with straightforward people, so I will definitely not make things difficult for you."

Wei Yu had already sensed the approach of crisis, because in recent years, no official cultivators had appeared, which was very abnormal. He changed his voice transmission and said, "If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. Fellow Daoist Xu, the higher you climb on the path of cultivation, the more resources and treasures you need. I can't give you anything except the Life Disk at the moment, and you won't get anything from it. I also have a bucket of fourth- and fifth-level materials hidden, all of which I will give to you. Please help me release a soul fragment to reincarnate, and I won't ask for more. How do you do it?"

In the ring space, Rabbit has pointed out the locations of three punishment gods, telling them the order of priority, and said contemptuously: "You are about to die, but you are still talking nonsense."

He had interrogated Wei Yu's soul and knew the location of the treasure house, so he didn't need to discuss any transaction with Wei Yu.

Xu Yuanchang asked the two women to retreat a few miles. He pretended to be very interested and fell to the ground, saying, "Mountain God Wei, we can discuss this in detail. If it is a piece of cake, I will consider it."

"It's very simple. No one will know about it..."

Wei Yu suppressed his joy and before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly turned to fear: "What are you doing?"

Xu Yuanchang had already taken out a three-foot-long jade pillar and slammed it hard into the ground, hitting the vital point. Wei Yu, who was suppressed under the mountain, let out a sharp howl.

"Boy, how do you know the location where I moved?"

Countless roots as thick as arms emerged from the ground, twisting and swaying in pain, and could no longer extend more than three feet.

Xu Yuanchang's figure flew up, and when he fell down, the second jade pillar hit the rock with a "bang". The roots twisted weakly, like a snake with its seven inches pinched.

Xu Yuanchang moved quickly and struck the third jade pillar again.

He deliberately looked for materials from the main temple of Dengxian Temple, which were engraved with complex runes.

He pinched his left hand and tapped the formation device in his right hand several times to release some of the restrictions, and shouted: "Wei Yu, don't come out!"

A trapped golden shadow struggled frantically to emerge from the top of a low mountain, roaring and growling.

There was a sound of collapse from the mountains over twenty miles away, and Wei Yu was determined to die together with them.

He hated this sinister boy.

"Boy, you will regret this..."

"go with!"

As soon as Xu Yuanchang had a thought, the divine light of creation suddenly wrapped around the soul of the mountain god that was trying to break free, and it kept urging it to strengthen. The huge suction force immediately made Wei Yu panic.

"Friend Xu... we can talk it over..."

"The Disk of Assignment... is for you!"

He didn't recognize the divine light, but he was instinctively afraid, and his soul was constantly draining away.

Let him realize that he might not be able to escape this time.

Gu Yunzhu, who was several miles away, stared at the familiar golden light, and suddenly a word popped up in his mind: "The divine light of creation!"

Xu Yuanchang methodically harvested the tremendous divine power, divine will and soul in Wei Yu's body bit by bit.

After being refined by the Altar of Creation, pure energy is fed back to him.

His cultivation level increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The command plate, half of the treasury, and Wei Yu's body all belong to him.

He and Rabbit already knew Wei Yu's weaknesses very well, and designed a method of punishment against Wei Yu, which worked immediately and made Wei Yu unable to either live or die.

As Wei Yu struggled weakly, the trees on the nearby mountains slowly lost their vitality.

The god is about to fall, and the night is dark.
