Immortal Road

Shadow Moon City is the largest city on Shadow Moon Star. It is also where the Shadow Moon Sect is located.

In front of the gate of Shadow Moon City, there is an endless stream of monks coming and going.

There was even a long queue at the city gate.

But the disciples guarding the gate all looked serious, and they carefully checked the identity of every monk who came in and out.

"Senior Brother Zhang, we will be on duty soon. This time it will last for three or four days. It's really too much!" A monk in white robes said with a mournful face.

"Come on, being able to take turns here is already the best choice. Don't you want to go out to search for Ziyan?" Senior Brother Zhang said angrily.

When the white-robed monk heard the word "Purple Smoke", his expression suddenly changed, and he lowered his voice and said: "Senior Brother Zhang, it's better not to say more about this matter, otherwise once it spreads, we will definitely not be able to live with it!"

"Okay, just be careful!" Senior Brother Zhang said with disdain: "I'm afraid this matter has already spread! Besides, we are under the gate of Shadow Moon City, how dare Ziyan appear here. No? It’s time, let’s go quickly!”

The two men walked quickly towards the city gate.

When the two monks who were investigating saw the arrival of these two people, a hint of joy appeared on their pale faces: "The two fellow Taoists are finally here. If they don't come again, I won't be able to hold on any longer!"

After the four people exchanged some pleasantries, a large number of monks gathered at the city gate.

Because they didn't dare to talk more, they just said a few words casually and then immediately started to investigate.

Among the people waiting to enter Shadowmoon City, there was a young man who looked to be in his twenties. His face was pale, and he seemed to be suffering from a chronic illness or was severely injured, resulting in a sickly appearance.

The body looks very strong, but among the crowd, it is squeezed here and there.

Seeing how unbearable this man was, some monks even pushed their way in front of him unceremoniously.

However, this young man seemed not to notice these forced queue-jumping incidents, and made no words or actions at all.

This person is none other than Ishikawa who came from afar. When he was about to reach Shadow Moon Star, the space rift moved a long distance, resulting in a great loss of Ishikawa's supernatural power.

Ishikawa used his last divine power to reluctantly arrive near Shadowmoon City. At this moment, Ishikawa was at the end of his strength.

According to Ishikawa's plan, he wanted to rest temporarily in Shadowmoon City for a few days. Also pray that the space rift will not move within a short period of time.

In Ishikawa's current situation, although he has the ability to protect himself, it will definitely be troublesome if he encounters someone with evil intentions. So it is better to enter Shadowmoon City and find an inn where you can practice stably for a long time with only a few spiritual crystals.

"Little brother, are you okay?" A middle-aged man squeezed to Ishikawa's side and asked in a low voice.

"Thank you for your concern, brother, I'm fine!" Ishikawa smiled slightly.

This person and Ishikawa had traveled all the way here. Although they had no friendship, they had exchanged a few words with each other.

According to Ishikawa's personality, he naturally doesn't want to talk to others. Moreover, given Ishikawa's level, he really didn't have much in common with these low-level monks.

Another point is that if you talk too much, you will miss the mark. Although Ishikawa has already thought of a new identity for himself, if he talks to others, there will inevitably be some flaws.

"I think my brother is not too old, and he may be able to meet the qualifications of the Eighteenth Sect to recruit disciples. Why not go and give it a try!" The middle-aged man said with a smile: "Look, so many young monks are all because of the Eighteenth Sect. The disciples are coming."

"Thank you! If I have the chance, I will definitely go and take a look!" Ishikawa said with a slight smile.

Before the two of them finished speaking, they were squeezed away by the surging crowd.

"Slow down! Slow down!" A voice yelled from the front.

At this moment, a sharp whistle came from the distance.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of monks with swords flew from above Shadowmoon City.

These monks escaped extremely fast, especially the monks on the two wings. In a blink of an eye, they surrounded all the monks who were lining up in front of the city gate.

"Set up the formation!" A middle-aged man shouted.

The surrounding monks immediately waved the flying swords in their hands, and golden light swayed out. In an instant, a huge formation was formed.

The middle-aged man sneered: "Zi Yan, please show up. Since I have set up a formation here, I will never let you escape!"

As soon as these words came out, the monks who were originally shocked became extremely frightened.

"Purple Smoke?" Ishikawa frowned slightly. Ishikawa had never heard of this name, but it seemed that it was taken seriously.

Soon, the crowd became quiet, and no one made a sound.

The middle-aged man looked around with blazing eyes, but he was still undecided. It was obvious that he could not determine where the purple smoke existed.

"Master, I think this person looks like purple smoke!" A young monk shouted loudly.

The person he was referring to was a young woman, wearing a simple blue robe, with a beautiful face.

"Lu Zizhong, don't slander anyone!" The blue-robed female cultivator's face suddenly changed, and she yelled out the young cultivator's name angrily.

"Spouting blood?" The young man sneered and said: "Who doesn't know that Zi Yan can directly swallow the souls of other monks and occupy the bodies of other monks, so I suspect that you are Zi Yan!"

"Lu Zizhong! Why do you say that?" The blue-robed female cultivator trembled with anger.

"Senior Brother Lu, Senior Sister Miao and I have just returned from Chunnan Ridge. We also heard about the Zi Yan incident on the way. How can you think that Senior Sister Miao is Zi Yan?" Another female cultivator said crisply.

"Everyone present may be Zi Yan, so as long as there is suspicion, they must be taken back for interrogation. No one can resist, otherwise they will die!" The young man sneered, his face full of pride.

"Senior Zhang, are you just sitting idly by and ignoring this matter? Do you really think that this junior is Zi Yan? With your cultivation level, you can definitely tell at a glance whether this junior is Zi Yan!" The female cultivator in blue robe looked at the Although the middle-aged man's words were slightly tough, his voice sounded pleading.

"The matter of Zi Yan is not a trivial matter. Senior Chen Yue has personally investigated the matter. It is also routine for me to do so. Since some people suspect that you are Zi Yan, you should come with me. As long as you have a clear conscience, why are you so afraid?" The young monk looked sanctimonious.

However, all the monks present could tell that this middle-aged man was favoring his disciples.

But in the current situation, no one dared to refute. If he angered this man, he might be treated as a purple smoke, and at worst, he would be taken away, or at worst, he would die on the spot.

"Senior Zhang, our families have been close friends for generations. Are you going to imprison me just because of what Lu Zizhong said?" The female cultivator burst into tears: "My father had some kindness to you back then. Could it be that..."

"Okay, stop talking! I don't want to get involved in your Miao family's affairs. Today I was ordered by the sect leader to search for Ziyan!" The middle-aged man directly interrupted the female cultivator and said coldly: "I Again, if you have a clear conscience, why are you so worried? Are you really Zi Yan? "

Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged man waved his hand, and a golden rope bound the woman so tightly that she could not even detect the spiritual power on her body.

After the female cultivator was restrained, everyone's expressions became very ugly. They all lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything for fear that they would be implicated.

Lu Zizhong burst out laughing, his face full of pride.

"You...you, and you!" Lu Zizhong nodded at several people in one breath, all of them young and beautiful women.

Soon, all these women were tied up.

Ishikawa also saw clearly the true purpose of these monks. Searching for Ziyan was a lie, but taking the opportunity to capture some beautiful female cultivators was the real thing.

Ishikawa did not expect that the middle-aged monk and Lu Zizhong would openly do such a dirty thing in front of the gate of Shadowmoon City.

But Ishikawa knew that this place was the gate of Shadowmoon City. Even if he could kill the middle-aged man, there was no guarantee that a monk with a higher level of cultivation would appear in Shadowmoon City.

Moreover, Ishikawa's current situation is very special. Although he has the strength to fight, he cannot hold on for too long, otherwise his divine power will be completely exhausted.

"And you!" Lu Zizhong's voice sounded again. Next to him was a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a look of fear on her face.

"Senior, my little girl is just fourteen years old! How could it be Zi Yan?" The middle-aged man next to the girl said quickly when he saw this situation.

This person is the middle-aged man who just talked to Ishikawa.

At this moment, Ishikawa was not far away from the middle-aged man and could see the matter clearly.

"How can people like you understand Zi Yan's cultivation? I must have my own reasons for choosing her. Do you still want to instruct me?" Lu Zizhong said coldly, his eyes full of fierceness.

"Senior, this junior definitely doesn't mean that!" The middle-aged man said anxiously: "My daughter just came from Southwest Col and was preparing to attend the disciple selection meeting of the Eighteen Sects. The two of us traveled day and night for more than ten days before we arrived. It can’t be Zi Yan here!”

"Sophistry!" Lu Zizhong said angrily: "If it weren't for Zi Yan, I would naturally release her! Do you dare to disobey the orders of the Chenyue Sect Master? If you dare to make quibbles again, I will treat you as Zi Yan Arrest the accomplices!”

"Senior! I..." The middle-aged man knelt on the ground with a thud, kowtowed and said: "I hope that senior will be noble and spare my little girl this time. I will definitely do my best to repay senior!"

The middle-aged man's voice was helpless, but no one responded.

No one wants to get into trouble.

Not to mention the dozens of monks in the formation, the middle-aged monk named Zhang alone could destroy most of them with a wave of his hand.

There was a hint of anger in Ishikawa's eyes, and the sinister look in Lu Zizhong's eyes had already revealed this person's true purpose. Ishikawa was originally unwilling to participate in this matter, but watching this 14-year-old girl being forcibly taken away by Lu Zizhong was definitely not what Ishikawa could do.

However, Ishikawa was not in a hurry to take action.

If Ishikawa takes action, he will definitely kill him with one blow. Not only Lu Zizhong, but also the middle-aged monk surnamed Zhang, as well as the dozens of other monks who formed the formation around him, must all die.

In addition, after killing these monks, Ishikawa must choose the direction of his escape. If there is a big monk chasing him, the bird spirit clan escape method, the blood escape method, and the golden boat are enough to allow Ishikawa to escape the pursuit of ordinary monks. But for the great monks above the integration stage, Ishikawa is not sure.

"Follow me! Let me see if you are Zi Yan!" Lu Zizhong laughed loudly and grabbed the girl's arm.

A cold light flashed in Ishikawa's eyes, and dozens of spiritual swords were condensed in an instant.

At the same time, a clear voice came: "Does Zi Yan have to transform into a beautiful woman so that you can capture her?" (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels are better and updated faster!)
