Urban Witcher

Rui Lengyu nodded, the melancholy in her eyes faded, but she just hid it to prevent Ye Shaoyang from worrying.

She always felt that the truth was not as simple as what she saw.

In a dense and lush forest, the pervasive aura has not dissipated for thousands of years. Between the crown and branches, there are countless spirits flying, all kinds of evil things that have never been seen in the world, and those who have lost their consciousness and have not gone to the forest. The half-spirit ghosts in Broken Soul Valley are attracted by the dense forest's yin energy, wandering around in it all day long, breathing out yin energy, practicing active and passive cultivation.

Outside the woods, there is a small area, which seems to be separated by an invisible force, within a radius of tens of meters, there is no yin energy, and no spirits, evil things and poisonous insects dare to approach.

Under the tree in the middle, there was an old man sitting. It was Qing Yunzi, the former head teacher of Xuanqing Mountain. His usual wretched expression seemed a little lonely at the moment, with his head buried, playing with a pile of stones on the ground.

An ethereal figure flew slowly from a distance, and landed beside Qing Yunzi. It was a young man in brocade clothes, with a beaded head, holding a pair of walnut-like things in his hand, rubbing them slowly, his face was as gentle as jade, but With a bit of evil spirit.

"Patriarch Qingyun, I have met you." The young man cupped his hands and bowed.

Qingyunzi straightened up slightly, looked up at him, and said, "Nangongying, right?"

Nangong Ying smiled and said, "Patriarch Qingyun has a good memory."

Qingyunzi also laughed: "The battle of Xuankongguan is also thanks to you for taking the initiative to restrain that old clapper of Daoyuan. I have to thank you."

Nangong Ying said: "Patriarch, you don't have to accept my love. I did this just to compete with Dao Feng. After I fought with Dao Yuan, I lost the trace of Dao Feng. It turns out that you are here. It really makes me happy." try to find."

Qing Yunzi lowered his head, continued to study the stone array in front of him, and said: "Daofeng is inside, you can go find him."

Nangongying glanced at the strangely arranged stones, and said, "The Patriarch is setting up the formation of Tianyan, what do you want to know?"

As he spoke, he walked over, picked up a stone from the ground, sent it to the drawn grid, and said: "I also know a little about the art of Tianyan, and I will help the ancestor."

Qing Yunzi held his hand and said, "I'm just playing here by myself, to pass the time, I don't need any help."

Nangongying smiled, and secretly exerted some strength on his arm, the strength was beyond the limit, but Qing Yunzi's hand was like a stone carving, firmly supporting his arm, and he couldn't press it down at all.

Nangong Ying was slightly stunned, then returned to normal, and said with a smile: "The patriarch really has supernatural powers, no wonder he can teach Taoism, and that kid named Ye Shaoyang is also good at it."

Qingyunzi said: "You fought with that old clapper Daoyuan, what was the result?"

"It's not a death fight, let's split the prize equally. However, his body is exhausted and there is no room for improvement, but I see you today, Patriarch, and I feel a little regretful. If you don't die, after decades of cultivation, you may really be able to prove the Dao of Hunyuan."

Qingyunzi was slightly surprised. The four words "R body is exhausted" are probably only understood by people like him who have truly experienced it. Even Ye Shaoyang, although his strength is super strong, but because he has not reached the limit of his body, he does not understand it very well.

Whether it's human or evil, the longer you practice, the stronger your cultivation will be, but there is always a limit, which is related to one's own talent and physical condition.

Most mages in the world, even if they are given the best cultivation conditions, they can only become celestial masters at most, and cannot go any further. This is due to the limitation of talent and understanding on the one hand, and the restriction of the body on the other.

Especially after the age of sixty, all aspects of the body's functions decline, and mana will not advance but retreat. Even the most assiduous cultivation can only maintain the status quo at best, and it is impossible to improve.

Although Master Daoyuan has lived for a long time, his mana has reached the limit that a body can bear. No matter how many years of practice, he still cannot reach the threshold of a higher level tablet.

As for ghosts, demons and corpses, they are formed for different reasons and have their own cultivation limits. If they can practice without limit, human mages can only practice for a few decades at most. How can they fight against those who have practiced for thousands or even thousands of years? Evil.

Qing Yunzi shook his head and smiled, "You're right, I still have a chance to take that step, but I just don't have the intention. But my little apprentice is not as simple as you think."

With an intriguing expression on Nangongying's face, she said, "What's his upper limit?"

"I don't know, even I can't see what his upper limit is."

When speaking, Qing Yunzi looked far into the distance, and then said to Nangong Ying: "You can actually see that I haven't reached the upper limit, it's really commendable."

Nangong Ying said with a smile: "This is not a great ability. I was born in the Infinite Realm of Shura Dao, which can be regarded as a tower near the water. Not only can I see these, I can even see your past life, Patriarch..."

Qingyunzi's eyes flickered for a moment, he raised his head slightly, fixed his gaze on Nangongying, and said, "One flower, one world, one tree, one bodhi. What does my previous life have to do with me?"

Nangong Ying smiled, cupped her hands, and said, "If Patriarch doesn't stop, I'll go find Daofeng."

"You should have gone long ago."

Nangongying set off to walk into the woods.

"Prince Ashura," Qing Yunzi suddenly stopped him, lowered his head and continued to play with stones, and said slowly, "The eyes of the sky are open to the sky. Human beings can see the secrets of the sky, and the poor will surely die under the sword in the future."

Nangongying's complexion changed, and then she smiled contemptuously, walked into the jungle, and just stepped out of the formation laid down by Qingyunzi, immediately there were countless evil creatures pounced on them, these evil creatures were all born in the jungle, and their cultivation base He was lowly, unable to distinguish the strength at all, but relying on instinct, he swarmed up, trying to absorb the blood of the comer.

Nangongying didn't even look at them, a layer of blood glowed around her body, and any evil things that came into contact with it immediately turned into a blood mist.

Although these evil creatures have not developed spiritual intelligence, they are not completely brainless. After a batch of them died, relying on the instinct of seeking good luck and avoiding evil, they immediately knew that this person was difficult to deal with, and ran away in all directions.

Nangongying gently raised her hand, and the blood on her body immediately swayed in all directions, chasing those evil creatures, strangling a large number of them in an instant.

Qing Yunzi was outside, although his back was facing the jungle, but when he heard ghosts crying and howling wolves, he immediately understood what was going on, shook his head slightly, and continued to play with the stones.

Not long after, another figure flew over from the opposite valley, it was Yang Gongzi, who landed next to Qing Yunzi, not daring to disturb him, and waited quietly by the side for a long time, and only when Qing Yunzi straightened up, did he speak softly. Called: "Master."

Qing Yunzi held his beard in one hand, still looking at the "stone array" in front of him that he had arranged in a strange shape, and asked without raising his head: "Have you seen them?"
