TaiHao

People who practice Taoism have special emotions about life and death, and some people take it very lightly. After that, their souls will scatter to heaven and earth, and their Taoist bodies will be incinerated and extinguished together. Some people are very attached to this and do not want their Taoist bodies to be desecrated by others. Therefore, Taoists also have various burial rituals. Cremation, Taoist burial, and ice burial are the most common.

Shuiyue Zhenren used the "spiritual burial" to seal his body in crystal and carry it into the geode for sealing. As time goes by, the Tao body will not rot, but will crystallize, and the Dharma body's suppression of luck may also help Dongtian absorb external spiritual energy. The previous Shuiyue Masters also used this method.

The Zhang clan and three thousand guests looked mournful in the square, and many Zhang clan members howled and cried. Not only because of love, but also because of confusion about his future. Shuiyue Zhenren did not decide on a successor before his death, so now there is no one who can really convince Shuiyue Cave to manage it, and there are constant internal fights. If you are not careful, the cave will be destroyed.

In the center of the field, sitting on a yin and yang disk is the body of Shuiyue Zhenren. The Dharmakaya is as it was in life, meditating with five hearts facing upward, eyes closed, and wearing a black robe. The dharma body emits powerful mana fluctuations, just like meditating and practicing qi, and it is impossible to tell that this person is dead.

Jiang Yuanchen and other outsiders stood aside in plain clothes. In addition to Jiang Yuanchen, who represented the Taixu Taoist Sect, many sects came to express their condolences. However, these sects do not exist at the level of the Nine Immortals Sect, they are just many sects in Yunzhou.

Seeing these elder leaders coming, Jiang Yuanchen also vaguely guessed the source of the great disaster in Shuiyue Cave Heaven.

"It would be strange for a child to carry gold across the street and not attract everyone's covetous attention." When Jiang Yuanchen arrived, each of the four of them picked up three sticks of incense and placed them in the bronze cauldron after worshiping.

The green smoke curled up and never dispersed in the entire square.

The sad atmosphere affected the surroundings, and Jiang Yuanchen's strong inspiration made him feel even more strange in this depressing atmosphere.

"Fellow Taoist Shuiyue. An old friend has come to pay his respects!" A loud voice shook the cave sky, and Wuguang forced his way into the space to attack Shuiyue's body.

"How outrageous!" All the Zhang clan members were furious, and Zhang Lu pointed a precious mirror at the visitor. A flash of light flashed in the mirror, revealing the identity of the visitor.

The visitor had a bronze head and iron arms, and was dressed in a red robe. He didn't care about the funeral at all.

"Old friend, I'm so happy! My old friend's soul has passed away. When I heard about it, the old man immediately chose a lucky suit and came over to celebrate!" The man was dancing and seemed crazy.

"Fantasy Demon Feng Yi!" Zhang Lu took a breath when he saw the identity of the person reflected in the treasure mirror.

Phantom? Jiang Yuanchen raised his eyebrows, remembering the origin of this person.

The phantom demon Feng Yi is also a monk in Yunzhou. With the name of "illusion", he is proficient in the art of illusion. During his lifetime, Shuiyue Zhenren wanted to perfect his own skills and walk on the path to immortality, so he either accepted the phantom cultivators as his disciples or tried to exchange their skills. If this was not possible, he could only kill and seize the skills to understand the truth.

Huan Yao has a surly temperament and does not want to have a good discussion with Master Shui Yue. In addition, the phantom demon's erratic behavior offended many people. Later, Shuiyue Zhenren found a reason to imprison him in the cave to learn his skills.

Unexpectedly, the phantom demon became cruel in the end and used a weird "spiritual shedding technique" to peel off a layer of its skin and cast a spell to escape from the cave. The copper-headed iron arm exposed now is the outer skin that he later used to reshape the body with the essence of hardware.

Because this phantom demon was imprisoned for three hundred years, his temperament was twisted to the extreme. Now he has fallen into the devil's path and reached the realm of Tianyi with the help of magic power. Even Jiang Yuanchen and others can't help but be wary.

"Don't worry, everyone!" Huan Yao is not stupid. Now that the leaders or elders of various Yunzhou sects are present, he will not dare to kill everyone in public. Therefore, the spearhead is directly aimed at the Shuiyuedongtian lineage. "The old man is just settling old grudges, this matter has nothing to do with you!" He finished. His hands turned into eagle claws and pounced on Shuiyue Zhenren's dharma body: "Old man, in the past you killed the old man and skinned him and ran away. Now the old man has pulled out your skin to make a tent and used your flesh and blood to feed the eagle!"

Zhang Lu's cultivation is similar to that of Feng Yi, plus he has the home court advantage and Zhang Miao and others help. The crystal light around him turned, the treasure mirror in his hand transformed into thousands, and the spiritual beast magic weapon flew out from the mirror and rushed towards Feng Yi.

This is the advanced application of illusion. If an illusion hits the body, it will directly confuse the six senses and make oneself mistakenly believe that one has been harmed by the illusion. The letter is there! Under the suggestion of illusion, real harm will occur to the body.

"The old man is also a master of illusions. What is the use of such techniques?" The phantom demon laughed, and suddenly a layer of copper skin exploded, and the fragments turned into a swarm of bees and pounced on the Zhang clan members.

"ah--!"

"not good--!"

"Help--!"

There were not even a thousand but hundreds of people in the Zhang family, with varying levels of cultivation. Each one of them was in a panic under the attack of these poisonous bees.

"Fellow Taoist Shuiyue! Mudan, the slave family, is here to see you off on your last journey!"

Mrs. Peony? Yao Li's expression changed. whispered something in Jiang Yuanchen's ear.

Mrs. Mudan is a member of the Xuan Mu Cult, and because she had a grudge against Shui Yue Zhenren in the past, she came to take revenge now.

"It is said that the main altar of the Xuanmen Sect among the five demon sects is located in Yunzhou, and now it seems that it is indeed the case."

A beauty in white clothes covered with gauze floated over.

Wisps of pink mysterious energy around her dispersed into the cave sky, and many people around her were swayed by the mysterious energy. When they looked at Mrs. Peony, their eyes couldn't help but become confused, and there was even a hint of affection in their eyes.

"Lovesickness Curse?" Jiang Yuanchen flicked his sleeves and spread the mysterious energy around him to protect the four of them. Many other monks with advanced spiritual practices also responded and cast spells one by one to avoid Madam Peony's charm.

"Brother from the Taixu Dao Sect!" Mrs. Mudan's eyes flashed and she looked at Jiang Yuanchen affectionately.

Jiang Yuanchen's expression did not change: "If Madam wants to ask for cause and effect, we will naturally not be able to take action. But if Madam kills innocent people indiscriminately, all Taoists present will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it!"

After saying that, many of the surrounding sect leaders gathered around Jiang Yuanchen as if they had found a backbone. Yes, they are here to express condolences, and they will not take sides casually if it does not harm their interests.

Moreover, it is best not to interfere when sorting out the cause and effect, otherwise you will get involved and bring trouble to your own sect.

"Peony, what are you telling them!" Outside the cave, someone broke into the cave again and broke in.

Jiang Yuanchen was surprised: "When did it become so easy to break through the cave?" With his eyes narrowed, Jiang Yuanchen secretly used the He Diagram to deduce the truth. Is there someone inside Shuiyuedongtian?

"You guys haven't done anything yet!" The man who just broke in was impatient. After shouting loudly, many people from the three thousand disciples suddenly turned around and attacked the surrounding monks.

"Zi Chen! What are you doing!" A customer saw that his friend suddenly attacked him, and he couldn't react for a while.

"It's the art of puppetry! They have already been trained into puppets!" Zhang Miao chopped off the arm of a customer next to him. He shouted: "Close the water gate! Open the Fantasy Moon Killing Formation, and we will join hands to kill these people!"

When Zhang Miao spoke, his followers immediately sealed the water gate and locked the cave.

As soon as the water gate was closed, the expressions of all the leaders present changed drastically. They couldn't help but look at Jiang Yuanchen: "Fellow Taoist, Taixu Dao Sect is one of the nine immortal sects. He is the leader of my Taoist sect. I wonder what your idea is?"

"Just wait and see what happens." Jiang Yuanchen raised his head and looked at the water gate in the distance. It was this water gate that was opened from the inside, and people continued to break in from the outside to break through the defense. But how could Shuiyuedongtian not be prepared at all?

The Fantasy Moon Killing Formation was in operation, and the crystal mountains automatically emitted divine light and merged into one place, turning into a crystal world trapping the enemy.

"Let's work together to build a defense and hide on the sidelines to wait and see what happens." Jiang Yuanchen's hand suddenly glowed with three inches of spiritual light, and a golden halo formed in front of him to wrap around the group of them. The other monks followed suit, and nearly thirty of them hid in the golden circle to avoid the fight.

As for the outside, the Shuiyue Cave Heaven lineage was fighting with those who came to seek revenge. There are thousands of people on one side. On the other side, there were only a few hundred people, and many of them were the puppets of a monk. If you really counted, they were only three monks in the Tianyi realm.

"Slave dog, how dare you attack me?" Jin Lan was standing with a group of family members when she saw a group of monks rushing in front of her, and without saying a word, she appeared as a golden dragon. The dragon's claws broke gold and cracked rocks, tearing apart the people in front of them one by one. However, she did not dare to directly devour the corpses of the humans present.

However, there were too few Jindan cultivators in the Shuiyue Cave Heaven lineage, and they were gradually falling behind. Jiang Yuanchen muttered in a low voice: "Five!"

Zhang Lu had just fended off Feng Yi's attack, and then Mrs. Mudan and another Tianyi realm monk Yu Mi came over.

"Four!"

Fortunately, Zhang Lu was holding the Magic Moon Mirror. Among them, the shining light resisted the attacks of two people. However, there is only one monk in the Tianyi realm in Shuiyuedongtian, and it is difficult to resist the attacks of these people.

"three!"

Zhang Miao finally found the puppet master, but then he was surrounded by a group of machine puppets, and had to stay farther and farther away from the puppet master.

"Trash!" Jin Lan cursed secretly when he saw this, took out the gold tooth wheel he brought from the Dragon Palace and threw it in the air. The treasure wheel split into two, and then the two transformed into four. At 48%, the boundless golden blade swept towards the puppet master, forcing him to summon puppets to protect himself.

"two!"

Jiang Yuanchen's counting action was also seen by the people around him. Several of the leaders were human beings after all. They were suddenly startled and couldn't help but look at Shuiyue Zhenren's dharma body in the center.

"One!" Jiang Yuanchen just finished speaking. Suddenly Shuiyue Dharma Body opened its eyes, and the moon-colored spiritual light rushed into the sky and turned into the natal mysterious light. Feng Yi was severely injured with just one blow, Yu Mi was crushed and disappeared, and Mrs. Peony was also fixed in the Huanyue Mirror. A flying knife stabbed Mrs. Peony from the mirror.

"Disperse!" Mrs. Peony gritted her teeth, and a peony flower bloomed on her chest. Pure white peony petals were scattered around. She used the power of the spirit flower to escape into the void and escape from Shuiyue Cave.

Seeing this, Feng Yi also knew that it would be difficult to succeed this time, so the Dharmakaya dispersed into a ball of blood mist and was about to leave.

"Huh?" Jiang Yuanchen's heart moved when he saw the blood mist that Feng Yi had transformed into. Isn't this the secret skill of the Bloody Yang Demon Sect?

"Senior, I wonder where you learned this bloody mist flow?" Jiang Yuanchen chuckled lightly, and a purple gold gourd flew out of his sleeves. The white bird fluttered out of the gourd, and the white mist wrapped in the blood mist prevented Feng Yi from leaving.

"Get out!" Feng Yi was furious. After being delayed by Jiang Yuanchen, he turned into a human again and a mysterious light brushed down.

Jiang Yuanchen sneered and swept away the same natal mysterious light in his hand.

The quality of the natal Xuanguang is directly related to the golden elixir. Although Jiang Yuanchen's Taoist skills are obviously weaker, how can the Xuanguang who achieved the Wuxia Taoist elixir be afraid of a monk like Feng Yi who is not as good as Zhenliu?

The purple light and the blood light collided, the purple dragon shattered the blood light, and then both dissipated. Jiang Yuanchen couldn't help but take three steps back. At this moment, the next wave of attacks from the phantom demon arrived again, with its metal claws grabbing at Jiang Yuanchen's Taoist body.

"Not good!" When Feng Yi succeeded in the attack, his expression changed drastically, and Jiang Yuanchen's location suddenly turned into a ball of butterflies and flew in all directions. Even strands of silver silk threads were woven by butterflies, and the long silver net trapped Feng Yi.

Jiang Yuanchen's actions gave Shuiyue Zhenren a chance. The Magic Moon Mirror in Zhang Lu's hand was taken away by him, and the magic moon light in it triggered the center in the sky above the cave. Countless silver lights impacted and turned into a shower of stars, killing everyone present.

A wisp of smoke from Jiang Yuanchen's gourd took away Feng Yi's soul and looked at Shuiyue Zhenren.

Shuiyue Zhenren sat down again after taking action, and the mana fluctuations on his body slowly dissipated and never got up again. However, before sitting down, he deliberately handed the Magic Moon Mirror to Zhang Miao's hands, which was also a hint. Seeing this, Zhang Lu and others looked unhappy, but they did not dare to speak.

"I'm really dead this time." Feilong said as he ate some fruit from nowhere.

"Yes." Jiang Yuanchen nodded. He also discovered that Shuiyue Zhenren was indeed dead, but he left a backup plan before his death. He deliberately left his obsession spirit behind to arrange three attacks to welcome the arrival of his enemies.

Feng Yi died, Mrs. Peony escaped, and Yu Mi disappeared. As for the other monks, including the puppet master, they were all killed by Shuiyue Zhenren in one blow.

The Zhang family seemed to have been prepared and immediately sent people to clean up the backcourt. But Zhang Miao couldn't restrain his joy while holding the Magic Moon Mirror, and said reluctantly: "I'm going to frighten you all. I, Zhang, will give you my own apology later." Putting aside a few words, Zhang Miao hurriedly left to prepare for the ritual of Huanyue. Treasure mirror.

Shuiyue Zhenren handed the Huanyue Mirror to Zhang Miao, undoubtedly announcing who the master of Shuiyue Cave will be in the future. As long as Zhang Miao practices this thing, he will immediately become a true soul. The body is in harmony with the cave sky and will remain immortal for thousands of years.

"Has anyone of your generation finally taken this step?" Returning to the guest room, Jiang Yuanchen was still quite emotional. Their generation originally thought that Taoist Yunmen, as the reincarnation of a real person, would be the most likely to make a breakthrough, but who would have expected that Zhang Miao would be the first to make a breakthrough?

…

That night, Jiang Yuanchen was silently practicing the Purple Gold Gourd. Suddenly, he looked towards the Green Jade Mountain not far away, thought about it and walked out.

Zhang Miao took the Magic Moon Mirror back to the cave to practice, and turned on the formation to prevent outsiders from disturbing her. But just when he was entering a critical moment, a burst of intoxicating fragrance suddenly came. Zhang Miao's mind was shaken, and the magic power in his body couldn't help but be diverted.

"This is Drunken Fu——" Zhang Miao was confused and looked at the person. "Is it you? Do you want-"

Before Zhang Miao could finish speaking, he felt a chill on his neck and his head rolled down from his neck. The visitor took back his Golden Wheel Magical Instrument, took the Magic Moon Mirror, and turned around to leave.

At the end, Zhang Miao stared at the person's feet and only saw a bit of plain skirt. The blood was stained on the corners of the skirt, and before it could accentuate the white skirt, it dripped down from the skirt to form a series of blood stains, until it disappeared at the door.
