Lock text system: The hero please respect yourself

These two caves were not the only ones that were turned into ashes overnight. When Lan Zhi went to the Tomb of Morning Mist a month ago, the three nearby residences of casual cultivators were also completely destroyed. Get their attention.

There was no one in the Tomb of Morning Mist, and Lan Zhi knew that Jian Qiang had left, so he could only inquire about the news in the nearby towns and mountains.There was no smoke or fire in the ruins, and the rocks were pitch black. Apart from Jian Qiang's cultivation of the Eight Wind Formation, there could be no other explanation.

Lan Zhi can be sure that he has already started to practice with living people.

The black hole near the Tomb of Morning Mist is only half a foot wide, and there are seven or eight layers of deep and shallow ones, which shows that Jian Qiang formed many formations to destroy the residence of casual cultivators.This should be Jian Qiang's first time. At this time, he has only cultivated the Eight Wind Formation to the second level.

The black hole in Yashan's residence is three or four feet wide, and it is the largest of all the caves. It only formed a formation once.In other words, in just one month, Jian Qiang has already reached at least the third level.

There can only be one explanation for such a fast cultivation method. Jian Qiang killed someone, sucked in the cultivation base of these casual practitioners forcefully, and absorbed all the magic weapons, spiritual herbs, and elixir in the residence into spiritual energy.

After absorbing the cultivation base of a casual cultivator of the same level, Jian Qiang should retreat for at least a month, and consolidate it with "Dark Willow Qingming".With his current level, it is impossible to swallow the cultivation bases of these five heavenly level Taoist cultivators in a month without any damage to his body.

Swallowing dates wholeheartedly, eager for quick success, he has lost control.

What rank is he now?Sky order?star rank?Everything is unknown, but it makes people more anxious.

Jian Qiang's whereabouts seemed to be hidden, Lan Zhi seemed to be chasing a shadow, missed several times, and could only find the traces left by him.There is no whereabouts or news of him, but Lan Zhi knows that the death of the five casual cultivators is just the beginning.

If Jian Qiang wants to take revenge, the Northbound faction and even the entire northern continent will be implicated. He only hopes that he can stop him in time and prevent him from hurting himself.Now he has restrained himself and only killed some heinous people, but who can predict what he will do next?

The most urgent task is to find out where Jian Qiang is hiding.

Lan Zhi waited for two days in the ruins of Yashan Layman. Late at night, a green light fell from the sky and fell on the entrance of the cave.

Lan Zhi stood up slowly: "Elder Wan has found out?"

Wan Chengbin held back his anger and said, "Xun Ye has been missing for four days, and the family has searched all over the neighborhood but can't find it. Where are you hiding him?"

Lan Zhi looked at him silently.

Wan Chengbin held back his breath and said, "What do you want me to do for you?"

"Go back to the Northward Sect, release Mo Li secretly first, and then wait for news from me."

"It's not difficult to let Mo Li go. How do I know that Xun Ye was served with good food and drink, and he didn't die?"

"You don't know, you can only choose to believe my words."

Wan Chengbin was furious: "I have lived for more than three hundred years, and I know how many caves and ant nests there are in the northern continent. I don't believe that you, a brat, can hide him where I can't find it! how do you know……"

Xun Ye is his favorite son, this matter is on his mind, no one knows.Wan Chengbin has always acted fair in front of the children, and even his family members can't figure out his preferences. How could Lan Zhi be so clear about it and directly rob Xun Ye?

Lan Zhi sneered: "Not only do I know that you love Xun Ye, but I also know that you plan to pass on to him the family heirloom silk red silk. I know more than you can imagine. If I want to hide someone in the northern continent , even if he turns into a bone in the end, you can't find it. If you don't believe me, you can really try it. If you kill me, I will come back to life in two months, but whether Xun Ye can come back to life, I will Not so sure."

Even though Wan Chengbin has lived for more than three hundred years, he has never seen someone who speaks such wild words like Lan Zhi.In normal times, he would definitely not believe a word, but Si Hongluo is a secret of the Wan family, how did Lan Zhi know?

He has already been resurrected once, even if he is killed now, how can he be guaranteed that he will not come back to life again?At that time, I was afraid that Xun Ye would have already lost his life!

Wan Chengbin actually felt a kind of unknown fear at this time, and looked at him as if looking at a stranger: "You are definitely not Lan Zhi, who are you?"

Lan Zhi's face darkened: "It doesn't matter who I am, you just need to know that I didn't kill Wu Fei, Fan Qing, and Li You. I wanted to live in peace with you, but since you can't tolerate me, If you insist on putting me to death, I'm so sorry, I don't care about other people's lives anymore. Elder Wan, do you want Xun Ye to die, or do you want to help me find out the truth?"

Wan Chengbin looked at him motionlessly, and said after a long time, "I just want to change Mo Li, there is no other request?"

Lan Zhi smiled: "Release Mo Li first, and then wait for my news. Don't mention the matter between us to anyone."

Wan Chengbin gritted his teeth: "Don't bully others too much."

"Elder Wan, do you want to do this? Kill me and let Xunye die, or listen to me and let Xunye live?"

At this point, there's nothing left to explain, it's a moment of decision.Wan Chengbin felt a pain in his chest: "Let me see Xun Ye once, and I will let Mo Li go naturally."

"Let Moli go, I will send Xun Ye back to your home safe and sound, but seeing him now is not enough. In terms of cultivation, I am not as good as Elder Wan. Once I let you see him, I am not sure whether Elder Wan will Take Xun Ye away and kill me by the way."

Wan Chengbin slowed down his tone: "Lan Zhi, since you didn't harm your fellow disciples, why not follow me back to the Northward Sect, I will protect your safety..."

"Elder Wan knows what I have done to the Northward Party. In order to keep the people we care about safe and sound, we don't care about the lives of others. I don't want to commit crimes and kill innocent people, but if I am cornered, I will I will also let you all be buried. Did you hear clearly?"

Wan Chengbin knew that it would be useless to say any more, so he gritted his teeth and flew away in a hurry under the darkness.

In the early morning of the next day, he came back with a man covered in mud, but the cave was already empty, leaving only a letter on the ground: "Leave Mo Li here, and Elder Wan will go back to the north to wait for my news. Don't send me a letter." If people follow Mo Li, don't let him have any troubles."

Wan Chengbin held back his anger and said loudly: "Lan Zhi, I know you are nearby. When I returned to the Northbound Sect last night, I heard that five disciples of the sect were arrested. Does it have something to do with you?"

Called a few times and no one answered, Wan Chengbin scolded a few times, turned and left angrily.

Mo Li was dressed in rags and his hair was disheveled. He waited in the cave for a while but saw no one, so he had to follow the flowing water to the waterfall and wash his body in the lake.Not long after, a man in a blue shirt slowly came out from the forest on the shore, and said straight to the point: "Help me find your master."

Mo Li seemed to be stunned for a moment, but immediately lowered his head. He naturally didn't know why Lan Zhi died and came back to life, but although he had many doubts in his heart, he didn't ask.He looked behind Lan Zhi for a long time, and asked, "Where is Lan Leng?"

Lan Zhi gave him a low look: "I temporarily hid Lan Ling. His affairs are unusual. I have something to ask you. Help me find your master first."

"Yes."

Lan Zhi asked, "The five heavenly disciples of the Northbound Sect are missing?"

"Yesterday in the dungeon, I heard the guarding disciples whispering that five senior brothers were out on errands. They were supposed to return that day, but there was no news for several days." The sun is near the northbound mountains."

Lan Zhi threw him a suit of clothes: "Take me to him."

Other than Jian Qiang, there is no other possibility for kidnapping these five heavenly disciples.What kind of cultivation is he now, to easily kidnap five people without being noticed, he might be at the peak of the star rank?

Mo Li changed into clean clothes, followed Jian Qiang's trail, and led Lan Zhi all the way south.

The northern continent is high in the east and low in the west. It faces the western mainland across the sea. The nearest point is a few hundred feet away from the western mainland. Shengu Gorge.

As the name suggests, all creatures that are not native have to sink, and cannot float in the sea water of Shengu Gorge.

Back then, the northern continent was invaded by demon cultivators, and I don’t know how many Daoist cultivators’ lives were lost before they were driven out. Several Daoist cultivators above the immortal rank were worried that history would repeat itself, so they set up a faction near Shenguxia, and always pay attention to the movement of the western continent, thinking of preventing .

Thankfully, they didn't have to go that far.

The tens of thousands of miles of winding crossing the river cut the northern continent into two, Mo Li and Lan Zhi flew close to the water for half an hour, and finally landed on the wet stone ground.The mountains in the distance are like a layer of barriers, enclosing a place called the Valley of No Man. The rivers intersect and penetrate into the valley, which is deep and quiet, and the aura rushes leisurely.

Mo Li said: "A thousand li further down is Shengu Gorge, the master is nearby, why don't you go to the inn near the town and rest first, I'll go out and explore the way."

Lan Zhi pondered for a long time, and said, "No need, your master is in No Man's Valley, let's look for it together tomorrow."

"why?"

There is a 2000-year-old small spiritual source near No Man's Valley. Although it is not directly above the spiritual source, there are some ancient spiritual herbs growing there.Although this place is not the best spiritual place, it is quiet and elegant in the valley, and it is also a good place to practice.

It's just a pity that it's too small.

This place is looked down upon by big sects, and has been occupied by small sects for 2000 years, but now there is a casual cultivator with a bad reputation.Lan Zhi thought to himself, since the person he was looking for was nearby, I'm afraid that the casual cultivator is in danger now.

Counting with one's fingers, there are already thirteen Heavenly Rank Taoist cultivators who have disappeared.Did he kill them all, or did he have another purpose?

The more people disappeared, the more uneasy Lan Zhi felt. This was what he was most afraid of.

The Eight Winds Array is a legend in the western continent, but it has only been heard of for thousands of years, and no one has the chance to see it.The reason is that it is not in the western continent, but buried in the ground of the northern continent.The northern continent is dominated by Taoist cultivators. Demonic cultivators will be hunted down if they step here. Who would have predicted that?

When practicing the Eight Wind Array, it takes about two months to reach the second level, and more than half a year to reach the third level. By analogy, even if the qualifications and opportunities are good, and there is no bottleneck at all, it will be smooth sailing. It takes dozens or even hundreds of years.At this time, if you draw an array with bare hands, there will be barrenness within a few miles.

But this is just one of the cultivation methods.

The Eight Wind Array got its name because it has another way of cultivation.This requires the capture of eight people of comparable cultivation, with Li Se at the center, and burying them alive in the eight directions of the gossip.At this time, with Li Se as the guide and the bodies of the eight monks as the boundary, they formed a formation.

The scope of this formation can be large or small, in other words, even if you can't practice the tenth level, monks can form an eight-wind formation with a radius of several miles.In this way, monks can absorb a large amount of spiritual energy in a very short period of time, and the improvement in cultivation can be called heaven-defying.

It's just that it's very easy for people to be filled with spiritual energy and explode to death.

This is what Lan Zhi is really afraid of.

Lan Zhi came to the nearby Guhan Town and told Mo Li, "Most of the places here are by water, and you have to lie on a boat for a part of the way into the valley. You can buy a small boat and come to the inn to find me."

Mo Li led away, and Lan Zhi walked slowly across a small bridge on the bluestone road. The ground was wet and slippery, as if it had just drizzled.The north and the south are different, the climate is indeed more humid, and even the fruits sold on the roadside are juicy and tender.

Lan Zhi walked into the only inn in the town, and when he raised his eyes, he unexpectedly saw a familiar face approaching him.

Bai Fengyang was dressed in plain clothes, and his demeanor was much calmer than before. He slowly opened his eyes wide and looked at him, his fingers trembling slightly.Lan Zhi looked behind him, only to hear that the inn suddenly fell silent, as if everyone was dumb, there was no sound at all, and the atmosphere was so tense that it was suffocating.

Not only Bai Fengyang was here, Qi Muran opened his mouth slightly, Su Chu's face was pale, Elder Wan frowned and remained silent, Elder Song held his hands behind his back, and more than [-] disciples traveling north also came.

The inn was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop.

What's going on, why did you meet them here?To escape, or to deal with them?

In this deathly silence, suddenly, there was a "snap", and the dishes fell to the ground with a crisp sound. A disciple sitting at the door squatted down in a panic to pick up pieces of porcelain, his arms trembling uncontrollably. Shaking, stammering: "Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't, I didn't mean to..."

Lan Zhi walked over to him, the disciple lost two and a half of his three souls, he couldn't pick up the dishes, his whole body was trembling: "Don't come here! What are you going to do? Don't come here!"

Lan Zhi didn't make a sound, but lowered his head and slowly helped him clean up the dishes, but the disciple was already so frightened that he cried, shaking his shoulders and twitching.

At this moment, Lan Zhi was already sweating nervously, thinking how to escape?But he didn't change his face, stood up and looked at them, calmly said: "Elders, juniors, long time no see."

None of the disciples answered, Elder Song said in a hoarse voice, "Catch him, he will live."
