[Slow Travel] Assassin System - Mingguang

"Fish Creek, we're here."

A pleasant male voice sounded gently in the girl's ears, and then, the barrier that isolated the noisy world was gently withdrawn, followed by gradually louder external voices.

Wu Yuxi opened her eyes dimly. At this time, she was leaning on the master's arms, and she was still covered in a cloak. The surrounding was dark, and a glimmer of light came through the gaps in the cloak.

Maybe the sun is setting?There's lights, here's to town...

After a short period of confusion, Wu Yuxi suddenly woke up: "I... I fell asleep!"

The little girl herself can't remember when she fell asleep. Maybe it's because the new master's voice is so nice, and when he narrates the ancient cipher texts, it makes people feel at ease; maybe it's because the experience of this day is too amazing. Coupled with the fact that deduction consumed too much spiritual power, exhaustion made her fall into a coma.

"We've been driving for a whole day. My speed is very fast. Of course you won't be able to keep up." Miao Xuan picked up the young disciple and let her get out of the cloak - this child didn't even have his long sword Heavy, holding her effortlessly.

"Xiaoyuxi, welcome to the... Heaven and Earth Pass, which belongs to casual cultivators."

The sun in the sky has long fallen into the mountains, and the ups and downs and depressions of the mountains are particularly dangerous in the dim light. In the center of the mountains and rivers in this water area, a stretch of buildings lie silently on the ground, almost Like a giant beast crouching on the ground, people can't see its face clearly, only a faint arc of light outlines its hideous outline.

This light...Wu Yuxi stared intently at this magnificent human settlement, and it was only then that she suddenly realized that the sun had indeed set, but the light source in front of her did not come from the lights of the human world, but from the ground strong fluorescence.

This human settlement was actually illuminated by the light from the ground!

"Tiandiguan is a general term, referring to all settlements built on the seals of the human world and the demon world." Miao Xuan smiled, "What is in front of us is the most prosperous place in Tiandiguan, where the energy is at its peak and the popularity gathers. Here It's... Tongguan."

"Tongguan!" Wu Yuxi repeated in surprise at first, then opened his eyes wide in excitement, "I have read many poems and essays related to Tongguan, are they all referring to this place?"

"Shiwen?" Miao Xuan was taken aback, then smiled noncommittally, "The children of the aristocratic family really like this place, but probably not many of them have been here, after all, it is the favorite 'dojo' of casual cultivators... ... There is a ban on space in the Heaven and Earth Pass, we have to walk."

Miao Xuan put the little disciple down, and finally the flying sword under his feet turned into a flowing silver light, which flowed into his forehead in an instant—whether it is a human race or a demon race, it can be opened after the cultivation base is great. The purple mansion is now, and most of the purple mansions of people or demons are located in the center of the forehead. Besides being able to store things, the most important function of the purple mansion is to warm and nourish spiritual weapons and store spiritual consciousness.

Wu Yuxi finally saw Master's real-name long sword. It looked ordinary, and it seemed to be no different from the standard weapons used by the low-level monks of the family. However, the flashing purple imprint on Master's forehead was particularly beautiful, silver-white and flowing Bright, like a phoenix bird soaring.

No wonder it's called "Wuming Sword"... Wu Yuxi suddenly realized, but then she couldn't understand: "Master, since you opened the Zifu, why did Feng——hide in the Sumeru Ring!"

The monks who have cultivated to a high level will carry their wealth with them. Only the monks who have not opened the purple mansion need to store the spiritual weapon mustard seeds. There is a risk of being taken away.

Miao Xuan laughed: "You have to ask why... of course it's because my Zifu only hides the natal sword!"

The fact is that once the phoenix feather enters the Purple Mansion, that is, Miao Xuan's spiritual domain, it will immediately and spontaneously integrate into Miao Xuan's spiritual power. The phoenix feather retained by Miao Xuan is to help Lord Gun reincarnate and town Lingtai, so there is no rush to absorb it. , but it's too early to tell the current Xiaoyuxi about this.

Wu Yuxi: Doubtful eyes.jpg

Miao Xuan touched the little girl's head and put her on the ground: "Okay, you will know these things later, come on, let's go to Tongguan!"

Wu Yuxi took Miao Xuan's hand, and the two walked forward together, Miao Xuan took her to shrink into an inch, and he said as he walked: "... Tongguan's predecessor was built on Youdu, which was the earliest human race. In the country Youguo, the king is also the first human being to cultivate, before that—"

"Master, I know this!" The little girl said crisply and authentically, "Before that, there were only 'shamans' among human beings. It was after King Zhao learned the method of human cultivation from Fengjun, that human monks gradually rose up!"

Miao Xuan was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that this period of history has become the enlightenment knowledge of the descendants of monks, so he changed his words: "Yes, the cultivation method back then had high requirements for qualifications and spiritual roots, and because the human world His spiritual breath is pure, and the method at that time is not suitable for today's era."

Wu Yuxi was surprised and said: "But, the current cultivation methods are also like this, and the methods of different families have different requirements."

Miao Xuan: "..."

That's right, I almost forgot that Lord Gun was the son of a powerful family in this life.

So Miao Xuan smiled: "You are right."

*

Unlike the affiliated cities of aristocratic families, there are no restrictions or walls outside Tongguan, and everyone can come and go as they please. Therefore, even though flying and large-scale fighting are prohibited in Tiandiguan, the death rate here is still high all year round.

Wu Yuxi hid under her master's cloak and looked around curiously. The buildings in Tongguan had a unique style that she had never seen before. There were countless palm-wide shiny lines running across the ground, and these spiders Net-like things spread all over Tongguan, bringing light to the human settlements at night.

It can actually shine...

Yuxi held Master's hand tightly, subconsciously avoiding the lines on the ground.

"These lights all come from the Demon Realm." Miao Xuan explained in a low voice, "The magic breath is constantly eroding the seal, and these lines are actually the cracks in the entire Heaven and Earth Pass."

Wu Yuxi was shocked and said: "The light of the demon world? The demon world is just below?! If you dig, if you dig down—"

"Of course, the soil veins and the core of the earth are dug down, but the land here is also full of such lines." Miao Xuan was amused, "The demon world and the human world are not simply adhering to each other in space, but between spaces. across."

There is no shortage of spiritual breath in the Heaven and Earth Pass, but because of its close connection with the demon world, the breath here is very turbid. The monks practice is twice the result with half the effort, and the probability of making mistakes and going crazy is extremely high, so the aristocratic family dismisses it. Only casual cultivators who can go anywhere gather here.

Gradually, Tiandiguan became a gathering place for casual cultivators.

A little monk who has not opened the Lingtai to Tiandiguan is simply seeking his own death, and the reason why Miao Xuan dared to take Wu Yuxi to run here is mainly because of his deep cultivation base and phoenix feather protection.

The young girl doesn't know these complicated considerations, she just thinks the world is fresh and interesting, it's very different from the mansion of the aristocratic family, maybe it's a bit tight in the chest after staying for a long time, but the phoenix feather hidden in the wrist will filter out the evil spirits on its own. breath, continuously and steadily feeding back pure spiritual breath to her.

The streets inside the customs clearance are full of people in a hurry, and almost everyone is wearing a cloak that hides their faces and auras. Here, Miao Xuan with his young disciples is like a drop of water flowing into the ocean. They are silent Walking in the crowd, no one can detect their whereabouts.

Just when Wu Yuxi was walking in a daze, her master finally led her into an unremarkable small courtyard. There was a hole behind the gate of this courtyard. An extremely complicated formation was flowing secretly, and the formation's The core is a branch that is as long as an adult man's arm.

The little girl felt that this branch was extraordinary, so she couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and only listened to her master to explain her doubts: "This is a sycamore tree passed down from ancient times, and it is very useful in formations."

It took Wu Yuxi a long time to realize that she heard life again, and she gasped: "The sycamore wood! Could it be the ones used by Baifeng to build nests——the sycamore wood...!"

Miao Xuan was amused by the little disciple, and said with a soft smile, "Yes, I bought it from 'Wild Wilderness'. Although the Cheng family kept it very well, it's a pity that it didn't come in handy."

Wu Yuxi: ...

The sycamore wood that was cultivated by Baifeng is a spiritual treasure as famous as Fengyu, and it will wear out with use. Of course, Cheng's treasured it, so it is possible to use it in ordinary times!

Miao Xuan patted the disciple's shoulder lightly, and in the blink of an eye, they entered the space attached to the branches together. This is a world shrouded in thick white mist, and only huge uneven floor tiles can be vaguely seen on the ground. , The rough and mysterious texture constitutes a strange and beautiful picture. .seven

"Is this... is it carved with a monster?" Wu Yuxi stared blankly at the ground, "This is really spectacular..."

Miao Xuan: "Yes, they depict Ruoshui, the city of monsters in ancient times... The palaces of the kings of the monster clan were built with such stones."

Back then, after he received the lair from Jiao Jiao, he could not live in it in the future. Immediately afterwards, the human world was invaded by demons, and after that, he was revived with broken wings and sacrificed to the world.

Who would have thought that he would not have the opportunity to see these carefully prepared gifts until this life?

Miao Xuan sighed silently, and then said as if nothing had happened: "Yuxi, I am going to help you open the altar here."

The little girl nodded solemnly: "Yes! Master!"

Miao Xuan touched her head: "The phoenix tree is very compatible with your aura, and there are two kinds of phoenix trees in the world today, one is the sacred tree used by the phoenix to build its lair, and the other is from the demon world." "Blood Indus", for the human race, only the former is a treasure, while the latter is highly poisonous."

The blood phoenix tree grows on countless bones and resentful souls, irrigated by the blood of the demon king, entrusting his terrifying obsessions and desires, ordinary monks will be melted into corpse water the moment they touch it.

Wu Yuxi nodded ignorantly: "Master, I understand."
