self-cultivation separation

The two changed their appearance to the outside world, rented a small courtyard in Wanling Town at the foot of Wanling Mountain, and falsely claimed that they were wandering husbands and wives, but no one doubted it.

That day Xu Qingxiu bought two soul chickens and was roasting them in the yard. Muling Shen was taking a bath in the house when a messenger in the shape of a scarlet crane flew into the yard.The Red Devil Crane is a kind of crane in the Demon Realm. Its feathers are pitch black, and its wings are covered with a thin layer of red flames. Like the paper cranes and paper pigeons in the cultivation world, it is often used by people in the Demon Realm to send messages. shape.But this Scarlet Devil Crane was different, its feathers were painted with a layer of white dye, making it look a bit like a crane at first glance.

Muling Shen said in the room: "Qingxiu, go and collect the letter, it's Mr. Guanghan's reply."

Xu Qingxiu responded, walked over and touched the Red Demon Crane's forehead, and it turned into a black package and fell to the ground.Xu Qingxiu picked up the package, opened it, and the first thing that caught his eyes was a pair of ice blue, crystal clear and exquisite... chains and shackles?

Xu Qingxiu was stunned for a second, then turned around and shouted into the room: "Sect Master Mu... What are these... you bought?"

Mu Lingshen seemed to have thought of something, quickly put on a coat and walked out of the room calmly, only the dripping hair exposed his nervous heart.He went to the parcel and looked down, opened it to read a letter from the bottom, then packed the parcel as it was, and called out a paper crane to send it away.

Then he turned to Xu Qingxiu, and said calmly: "Mr. Guanghan sent the wrong product, I have already returned it, this letter is what we want, and it contains the methods to deal with those formations. You can go to Lingbao Villa again tonight. "

Xu Qingxiu only saw the chain and didn't turn down any further. At this time, he was really distracted, and he didn't doubt Mu Lingshen's words.

Muling Shen secretly gritted his teeth, Mr. Guanghan didn't deliver the goods sooner or later, and waited until they were delivered together.Those who do business cheat customers so much, how will they do business in the future.Bad review.

And He Rui, who was far away in the Ice Xuanzong, held the package sent by the crane, and was extremely puzzled. This thing was lingering with a faint devilish energy, but it was sent back by the suzerain himself, so he was told not to open it, and directly took it back to the suzerain's own room within.He Rui shook his head, finally let go of his curiosity, and put away the things as instructed.

In the letter, Mr. Guanghan drew them a "Tracing and Elimination Formation", which can make other formations return to the state that lacked the previous step.He originally created this formation to save trouble. If he made a mistake when creating other formations, with the traceability and elimination formation, he can directly return to the state of the previous step and start again.But in another way, this formation can make other formations unfinished without alarming the formation builders, thus losing their effect.

With this array of traceability and elimination in hand, Mu Xu and his two sneaked into the tunnel in the bedroom of the master of Yunzhuang without much effort during the day and night.

The tunnel is very narrow, only one person can pass through it, it has been winding downwards, lifeless, so there are no demons living here, and the two walls of the tunnel often have grooves for placing pearls to illuminate the path under your feet .

The two were walking one after the other, and Muling Shen suddenly sent a sound transmission with his spiritual sense: "Be careful, there is someone walking this way ahead. It should be Yunda."

He took Xu Qingxiu to stand in the shadow, and he had already made a seal in his hand.

Because of the light and shadow effect of the pearl, and because it has been safe for a long time, Master Yun never thought that someone could sneak in quietly. The two people who have not noticed the dark place have already been attacked by Shen Ling's soul-stirring technique. middle.

Mu Ling Shen confirmed that he was the only one, and ordered in a low voice: "Go back as usual."

Sure enough, Master Yun walked towards the bedroom in a daze.

The bedroom has already been restrained by the curtain order Shen. This restraint was also bought from Mr. Guanghan. From the outside, everything is as usual, and it is impossible to find any abnormalities in it.

Muling Shen asked him: "Where does this lead below, and who are you going to see?"

With blank eyes, Yun Da replied: "...to the underground palace of Lord Demon Emperor, to meet Bai Boshang."

Sure enough, there was Bai Boshang, but he did not die.

"The Demon Emperor?" Mu Ling said in a deep voice, "Nangong Yun?"

Nangong Yun was sealed in the forbidden area of ​​the Eastern Realm, and was guarded by the Xu family, an aristocratic family who is good at sealing and prohibition. It is rumored that he is the purest and most powerful demon emperor in the Nangong royal family for thousands of years. If he came out and planned this series of events , that must not be underestimated.

Yun Da shook his head: "It's His Majesty Nangong Ya."

Nan Gongya.From the name, it can be judged that he is a member of the Nangong royal family, but he has no impression.This demon emperor is probably also self-appointed.

Xu Qingxiu came out from behind Mu Lingshen, sat aside and asked him, "Did you know what happened to the Xu family 30 years ago?"

Yunda's body shook slightly, and he said slowly, "I know."

Also belonging to a family of weapon makers, he has been secretly coveting that every sword made by the Xu family has a sword spirit.He also hopes to have such an ability, so that all the magic weapons that are cast can have a weapon spirit.Bai Boshang did not know how to pry into his secret thoughts, so he came to him secretly, and asked him to lend him the key to the place where the magic sword was sealed and his heart, and promised to tell him the secret of the Xu family, even if If things fail, he can also push the responsibility. At most, he is ineffective in supervising and will not involve him.

After thinking for a long time, Yunda agreed.At that time, he still didn't know what Bai Boshang's overall plan was.

When the news of the Xu family tragedy came, he broke out in a cold sweat and couldn't sleep at night, because he knew exactly who did it.But Bai Boshang hid it very well, no one discovered his suspicion, and Yun Da gradually felt relieved.

Bai Boshang did not bring him the secret of the Xu family's ability to refine the sword spirit as promised. He said that this was due to the traits of the Xu family's blood, so even the adopted Xu Lingkong could not do it.In order to abide by the agreement, he has killed all the people with the blood of the Xu family, so that no one in this world can create a [-]% weapon spirit with a single shot.After hearing this, Yunda gradually calmed down. He felt that this was okay, even if he couldn't do it, and no one else could do it.

Afterwards, Bai Boshang introduced Nangong Ya to him, told him that they were already a community of interests, and persuaded him to work with them.

Yun Da was still hesitant at first, but Nangong Ya was able to give him power, the majestic and pure power, even though he could clearly feel that it came from the Nangong royal family in the Southern Demon Realm, it still fascinated him.

He was soon completely convinced and became a member of this hidden interest group.He believes that His Majesty Nangong Ya can inherit his father's behest to subvert the world, and he will also gain supreme strength and power.

Muling Shen and Xu Qingxiu also slowly learned the identity of this Nangong Ya from his slightly crazy narration. He is Nangong Yun's cousin, and his father is Nangong Yun's uncle and the previous Demon Emperor. , who once tried to subvert and rule the entire cultivation world, but was later killed by Nangong Yun because of the power change within the Southern Demon Territory.According to the legendary Nangong Yun's personality, since he had already killed his father, he probably wouldn't leave a son behind, but he didn't know how he suddenly appeared 30 years ago and took Bai Boshang back for his own use.

Xu Qingxiu could hardly contain the hostility in his heart. He tried to appease his master with his sword, and uttered a long and clear moan.

Muling Shen stretched out his hand to press Xu Qingxiu's left shoulder, silently passed his power over, and asked Yun Da, "What are you going to do now? Where are everyone in Longting Valley?"

Yun Da pressed his head. The long interrogation in the state of dementia had already made his soul feel pain, but he still couldn't resist answering the dementor's question: "Everyone in Longting Valley is in the Demon Emperor's house. Inside the underground palace. Tomorrow at midnight, when the seven stars arch over the moon, the Demon Emperor will use the All Souls Sacrifice Formation to recover his body. Then he will return to the Southern Demon Realm and formally regain his throne as the Demon Emperor."
