The Demon Venerable's Wistful Desire

That night.

The sun is setting, and the stars are rising.

The dark red robe flew quickly in the air, dyeing the dark and frosty Nuanyan Pavilion with a touch of brilliance.

Before Xi Huai could stand still after landing, Jiujiu flew out of his hand.

He was startled, afraid of losing Chi Muyao's natal spirit beast, he searched for something in Wanbaoling and planned to catch it again.

Unexpectedly, after flying around, Jiujiu not only didn't leave, but returned to his side, landed on his shoulder, his body swayed, as if he was still living happily alone.

There is no sense of being kidnapped at all.

While Chi Muyao was taking part in the additional test, Xi Huai planned to study Jiujiu carefully to see if there would be traces of dragon flames on it.

It is too suspicious that Chi Muyao can hide the dragon flame so thoroughly.

He was a little helpless, touched the feathers on Jiujiu's neck with his index finger, and asked, "Your master is quite smart, why are you so stupid?"

Jiujiu could sense people's emotions, and knew it was not a good word, so he turned around and ignored him, but he didn't leave his shoulder.

He returned to the house with Jiujiu, and asked after entering, "Have you found it?"

Zong Sichen quickly flipped through the books stolen from Nuanyan Pavilion, and replied at the same time: "The books in Nuanyan Pavilion are full of nonsense, all of them are theoretical explanations, and there is not a single practical sentence."

Song Weiyue was also holding a book, and his reading speed couldn't be compared with Zong Sichen's. While reading it, he muttered: "What are you talking about...why is there no picture?"

Zong Sichen simply threw away the book in his hand, and said: "There are too few records about spiritual pets, and that's why we are not willing to spend time building a good relationship with spiritual pets. Hidden restrictions, I'm afraid I can only go to the Royal Pet Sect and ask their disciples."

Xi Huai felt that his idea was ridiculous, and after sitting down, he asked with a sullen face: "Shall I take their disciple's natal spirit beast to their sect, and let them break the restriction on this bird?"

Zong Sichen walked up to Xi Huai, leaned down to look at Jiujiu, and said with a sad face: "How can we detect its spiritual power? There are too many kinds of spirit beasts, and each spirit beast has its own differences. According to the book There are many, but no one has used the oriole bird as a natal spirit beast, and I am afraid that the author would not have thought that someone would do this... Really there is no way to start."

Xi Huai turned his head to look at Jiujiu, and said, "I just want to see if there are dragon flames in its body."

"I know, I know, isn't there a restriction?"

In fact, when Xi Huai spent the night in Chi Muyao's room, he had already quietly tested Jiujiu.

After releasing the sound-silencing magic weapon, he secretly released Jiujiu while Chi Muyao was sleeping, trying to detect the spiritual power in Jiujiu's body.

He also thought that detecting the spiritual power of a spiritual pet was the same as detecting a person's spiritual power, and found that after his spiritual power was injected into Jiujiu's forehead, it only caused Jiujiu's plump belly to sway, and there was no other reaction.

Spirit beasts are different from humans, especially the natal spirit beasts that have contracted with humans have special restrictions set by their masters.

Song Weiyue also put down the book and stared at Jiujiu, very puzzled: "What do you think about using such an oriole as a natal beast? Does it have the ability to attack? Do you let it peck each other when fighting?" ?”

Zong Sichen seriously recalled: "I have never seen Chi Muyao use it, and every time it seems to be...watching. That's right, it is watching."

Xi Huai asked again: "Didn't you find anything?"

"I also found some. Either the master issued an order to let it lift the restriction, or it entered the combat state and voluntarily lifted the restriction so that it can use its spiritual power."

Three people are in a state of anxiety over a bird.

Song Weiyue didn't bother to think about it, so he took out Xizhao and said, "I'll give it a good beating. If it is beaten back, won't the restriction be broken?"

Xi Huai immediately raised his hand to protect Jiujiu: "No, what if it is really just an ordinary oriole? Didn't you kill it?"

Song Weiyue almost collapsed holding the hammer: "Then what should I do?! That little senior sister Chi Muyao is not a good person, she dared to use a knife with you, she lost her junior brother's natal spirit beast, she will definitely go to Yu Yan book, and after that, there was a lot of trouble looking for a bird, but the bird is here? What should we say? Think it is fat and want to roast it?"

At this time, Jiujiu, who was insulted, suddenly spread his wings and let out a "chirp", and then flew up.

The three of them looked up at Jiujiu flying all over the room, and they didn't dare to hit it hard for fear of hurting it. After all, they were all very qualified cultivators, and a random attack would be enough for this bird.

So they don't use their spiritual power, but only use their hands or nets to catch them.

Although Jiujiu has a fat body, but his movements are very agile, the three of them can't catch it even with their light body skills. It also aimed at Song Weiyue and shit on Song Weiyue's head.

Song Weiyue was the son of the lord of Qing Zezong's first palace, so he was prepared and put an enchantment on his head.

But it's also disgusting to watch that poop spread on the barrier above my head...

Zong Sichen smiled and said: "Hahaha, it still has a big move, we underestimated it."

Song Weiyue jumped away quickly, moving swiftly like a monkey, and finally squatted on the table beside him, with a book under his feet.He lowered his head and looked at it, somewhat feeling that stepping on it didn't respect the book so much, so he pulled the book out again.

Although I don't understand it, it is also knowledge.

He picked up the book and patted the dust on it, and then said: "This Chi Muyao is also interesting. He joined the Imperial Pet School and didn't practice much. The natal spirit beast is still an oriole bird. It's also rare."

Xi Huai replied with lowered eyes: "Everyone has his own ambitions, he just likes other ways of life."

Zong Sichen nodded, followed by analysis: "So, the way of life he likes is completely different from yours, and he knew you were looking for him but didn't admit it. Is there also a reason for this? It is destined to go through a lot to be found by you, Qing Ze Zong's life has never been peaceful, and if he is by your side, he will go through these things, and these are not what he wants, so he simply denies them, so he can avoid them."

Now the two of them understood that even if Xi Huai found Ah Jiu, he would not punish him or kill him, otherwise there was no need to protect Ah Jiu and others at the same time.

Looking at Xi Huai's state, he knew that Xi Huai fell in love with Ah Jiu in his heart, but he just kept silent.

Helping Xi Huai analyze these now is also analyzing the future of the two of them.

Song Weiyue laughed and said, "Do you really think that Chi Muyao is Ah Jiu? The young master just thinks that he is good-looking, so he has to be Ah Jiu, otherwise how can he pretend to be so comprehensive? I think we Why are you looking for Ajiu, the real Ajiu sees the young suzerain going to seduce the little beauty all day, so naturally he doesn't want to come out."

"But..." Zong Sichen hesitated, "There is Ah Jiu in the formation, and there was also Ah Jiu when I met old nun Xianyue last time. They were there both times, and only a few people met the conditions. I suspect that Ah Jiu is Chi Muyao, so could it be Xi Zihe?"

Listening to the analysis of the two of them, Xi Huai's face turned livid.

There has been no definite answer, and his heart is always uneasy.

A heart is like duckweed swaying in the blue waves, with nothing to rely on, going up and down.

His eyes followed Jiujiu all the time, and found that Jiujiu flew around and then landed on his shoulder, and jumped on his shoulder to demonstrate with Song Weiyue.

The courage is quite fat.

Song Weiyue stood up angrily: "It's angry at me, why is it so confident?"

Zong Sichen also found it interesting, and said with a smile: "It knows that the young suzerain is protecting it. Speaking of which, it really likes the young suzerain."

Xi Huai let Jiujiu fall into his hands, and injected spiritual power tentatively again, but still couldn't detect it.

After that, I tried all the tools and methods I could think of, but still got nothing.

The three of them were a little bit depressed, and finally had no choice but to give up. Song Weiyue sighed: "It seems that this road is not going to work."

Xi Huai could only send Jiujiu back.

He didn't send Jiujiu to Yi Qianxi, but to Chi Muyao's house, and closed the doors and windows to prevent it from flying away.

Less than an hour later, Yi Qianxi pushed the door open and entered Chi Muyao's room, saw Jiujiu landed on the screen, and tilted her head to look at her before she felt relieved.

She immediately walked over and summoned Jiujiu, held Jiujiu in her hands and cursed: "Why did you fly back by yourself? I'm going crazy, ahhh!"

In order to let Jiujiu and her red fox breathe, so as not to be suffocated in the pet bag all day, Yi Qianxi went to the back mountain on purpose.As a result, Jiujiu suddenly disappeared, and she was going crazy with anxiety.

She searched all over the Nuanyan Pavilion, for fear that Jiujiu would be used as a target for practicing fireball and would be hit by someone.

The first person she looked for was naturally Yu Yanshu, and Yu Yanshu summoned several disciples to help, and a group of people searched everywhere.

Yi Qianxi really had no choice but to come to Chi Muyao's room, and found that Jiujiu was finally relieved here, holding Jiujiu in her arms, she began to cry loudly.

Standing next to her, Yu Yanshu was a little embarrassed, and stretched out his hand to persuade, but withdrew it again.

He is not good at doing this kind of thing, so he can only send out the sound transmission talisman to the helping disciples, telling them that Jiujiu has been found, then looking around, he said: "The windows are closed, Jiujiu should not be able to fly in, someone sent him in .”

Changing the topic is effective, Yi Qianxi immediately asked: "Is it really taken away?"

"It seems to be, and it was sent back later."

"People from Qing Zezong did it?"

"do not know."

Yi Qianxi finally wiped away her tears and stomped her feet angrily: "Teacher, you have to cut off your sleeves, and you will be tempted to think about my junior brother's good looks!"

"Junior Brother Chi took good care of Jiujiu during the exam, I will keep an eye on them." After Yu Yanshu finished speaking, he pointed to Jiujiu, "Is it injured?"

After Yi Qianxi inspected it, her eyebrows moved slightly, and she replied: "No."

"That's good, I'll go first." Yu Yanshu didn't want the lonely man and widow to be in the same room for too long, so he hurried away.

After Yu Yanshu left, Yi Qianxi checked the restraint in Jiujiu's body again, and then strengthened it again.

From this point of view, Jiujiu was really kidnapped...

Chi Mu sat in the Phoenix Pavilion, shaking his feet, watching other practitioners busy.

Compared with their anxiety, his calmness was a bit out of place.

The Phoenix Pavilion here is composed of three pavilions connected to each other. The middle pavilion is taller, with graceful arcs at the corners of the eaves, and the pavilions on both sides are like spreading wings.

He sat in the hexagonal main pavilion, and the breeze brought a burst of fragrance of grass and trees.

In the ninety-nine glazed pagoda in the place of trial, there are many magic circles on each floor.Practitioners who take the test need to enter three magic circles on each floor, and pass all three magic circles before they can go up to one floor.

The exam has been going on for a day, and Chi Muyao persisted to the third floor. When he came in, he saw Ming Shaoluo and others and felt dark.

After all, I couldn't escape.

In fact, ever since he saw Mu Ren, he had expected that he had entered the law by accident, and it was also expected that he would meet Ming Shaoluo and others.

However, Ming Shaoluo was obviously shocked to see Chi Muyao on the third floor, otherwise he wouldn't have stared at Chi Muyao for a long time with an uncontrollable expression.

After getting ready, Ming Shaoluo became the leader and began to lead all the cultivators to break the formation together.

After reaching the third floor, the magic circle is much more complicated, and this magic circle is like this.The portrait is like being in a real scene, the grass and trees are fragrant, the gazebo can be used for sitting, and the wind is also mixed with coolness.

The fog has not dissipated, and there is a piece of green grass slowly swaying in the wind in front of the gazebo, willow branches brushing the flowers on the river bank, and the blue stones are covered with moss.

One side of the world, do not have style.

It's just that this burst is too confusing, the fog is interference, and people can't tell the direction.

People circled in the formation, walked for a long time without reaching the end, and seemed to return to the original place in a trance, but this place was different from before.

The maze, the trapping circle, if you don't find the eye of the formation, you will probably wander in the formation forever and never get out.

This formation was so peaceful that they couldn't make a move, and they couldn't even see where it could be the eye of the formation.

Chi Muyao felt a little bored watching them busy.

He is familiar with this kind of formation, their Hehuan Sect is best at using illusion, and this formation contains illusion.

He only needs to take a rough look to see the flaws, but he doesn't want to steal Ming Shaoluo's limelight, and he doesn't want to run around with them.

But he also felt a little tired while sitting here waiting.

In the end, he couldn't sit still anymore, and got up to get busy with him.

He wandered around the formation eye, and when studying the mystery of the formation eye, he heard other people's comments: "That one from the Royal Pet Sect has been lingering by the stone steps for a long time."

"You don't think this kind of thing is a formation eye?"

"I walked here a few times just now, and I can't see any difference. It really is here to mix up points. I don't want to make it too obvious. It's lucky that he can persist until the third floor."

"First I sat there stupidly, now I start to study the stone steps, I am laughing to death."

Mu Ren approached from far to near, and sighed: "How do you know that he is not observing carefully?"

Hearing that Mu Ren helped Chi Muyao speak, these people all shut up.

Ming Shaoluo was also not far away, and asked with a smile: "Mu Ren, your attitude towards him is different, have you met him before?"

"Well, I met it once." Mu Ren didn't want to say more, and didn't pay attention to Chi Muyao any more, looking for it alone.

The spiritual roots of the wood kernel and wood system are relatively outstanding. Enter the gazebo and meditate cross-legged to connect with the spiritual consciousness of plants and trees, and prepare to feel the difference in this formation.

The other cultivators in the formation were able to persist until the third level, and naturally they were not idle people, and they began to use their own methods.

When Muren opened his eyes again, he and Chi Muyao looked at each other.

Mu Ren felt a little embarrassed, but still walked towards Chi Muyao.

"Why are you..." Mu Ren seemed to want to ask Chi Muyao why he didn't unlock the psychedelic array directly, and then looked at Ming Shaoluo. He is also a person with a clear mind, so he stopped asking and let him unravel the psychedelic array .

In an instant, the world changed.

Day and night alternate, the bright moon hangs in the sky, and the stars are scattered in the sky like fallen leaves in autumn.

The Phoenix Pavilion disappeared, and the grass and trees turned into slate ground.

The ground extends infinitely from the stone steps at the eye of the array, turning into an endless ground.

Under the moonlight, there are red silk and drum arrays. The drum is a common red drum with a cowhide drum surface decorated with golden drum nails and drum rings.

Red silk surrounds the ninety-nine 81 drums. As the drums move, so does the red silk.

At this time, the sound of the piano sounded in the formation, the melody was melodious but had a clear sense of rhythm.

It is still a confusing magic circle. The red silk is interference, and the night is also interference. Random changes make it difficult for people to find the law of drum changes.

This magic circle can only be played by one cultivator at a time, and hit the designated drum at the right time.This person also needs to be proficient in temperament, and get the hinted direction from the rhythm in order to find out which drum it is.An array that cannot fish in troubled waters.

Those who don't understand the temperament simply gave up and stood on the side waiting to see the others break the formation.

Ming Shaoluo had been taking the lead before, but she was not the one who cracked the first formation, so she was naturally the first to try at this moment: "Let me take a look."

Chi Muyao was not in a hurry, watching Ming Shaoluo jump into the formation, listening to the music to find the direction.

Don't look at Ming Shaoluo's savage personality, she also has the capital of arrogance, she has good aptitude, she is a single spiritual root of the earth system, she looks good, and her family background is good.

She was jumping in the formation, as if she was spinning and dancing.

The sleeves are fluttering like a peach blossom.

This drum needs to be struck 81 times, and if one is missed, it is not considered complete, but if there is a wrong strike, it needs to be repeated.

81 drums, 81 times, each drum must be hit once.

The drum is moving, and its position is uncertain. If it does not keep up with the beat, it will also lead to failure to break the formation.

Some of the onlookers sighed: "It's too difficult."

"Senior Sister Ming is really powerful. If I go up, even if I observe every drum with my spiritual sense, I will be in a hurry."

"really."

Ming Shaoluo hit 42 consecutive hits in the first attempt, and No.40 failed to keep up with the rhythm three times. When he needed to hit the drum, he failed to catch up with the drum. It was a pity that he failed to break the formation.

After she walked out of the formation, she sighed for a long time, and said coquettishly, "It's so difficult!"

Having said that, she secretly rejoiced in her heart, she knew that she had done a very good job.

She broke through this time before she was reborn.

At that time, Mu Ren found the first array eye. She didn't notice where Muren found the array eye. She only saw that the world had changed and entered the second level.

This second level was really embarrassing for them at the time, everyone went up to try in turn, and it took two days before she was the first to pass this level.

Because of too many attempts, she even had to memorize the rhythm.

She wanted to show off her skills with success just now, but she didn't expect to miss the beat because she didn't keep up with the rhythm in a panic.But she was sure that no one could do it better than her.

She remembered that only she and Mu Ren could pass the level in this magic circle.

Mu Ren looked at the magic circle seriously, and praised: "This magic circle is very difficult, and you are already very powerful."

"Brother Mu, do you want to give it a try?"

"Well, good." Muren said and entered the formation with the lightness technique, tried to calm down and listened to the rhythm break the formation, but the first attempt only hit the drum fourteen times in a row.

After that, others tried in turn, but failed.

Ming Shaoluo looked at Chi Muyao, who had been refusing to fight, and said, "Junior Chi, let's try it too."

Everyone has to try it once, and let them experience how difficult this formation is, so that they can know how powerful she is.

She could even think that the news of her easy breakout would reach Xi Zihe's ears, which would change Xi Zihe's view of her.

After all, Xi Zihe is most obsessed with magic circles.

After Chi Muyao nodded and stepped forward, Mu Ren suddenly said, "Try normally."

He looked back at Muren, and Muren used his preaching tone again: "After you break into the back few floors, others will still know that you don't need to do this now, save some time and energy."

After thinking for a while, he replied, "Well, you're right."

Everyone was puzzled, what secret code did these two people have?

Ming Shaoluo frowned slightly, Chi Muyao's entry into this magic circle was not what she expected, she was really curious about Chi Muyao's strength.

Chi Muyao stood in the formation and listened to the rhythm, watching the drums in the formation begin to break.

The disciples of the Hehuan Sect are all proficient in rhythm, and even proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so as to attract the "stove tripod" to take the bait.

Chi Muyao naturally knew it under the influence of his ears and eyes. Although he was not as good as other senior sisters and junior sisters, he was not bad.

When he beats the drum with his body, he will leave a peach-pink fluorescent light on the surface of the drum that only the disciples of the Acacia Sect can see, so as to record that he has hit the drum.

Chi Muyao walked among the drums, turning around as if dancing lightly.

The moonlight was cool, and the silver lights scattered, coating Chi Muyao's hair and clothes with a layer of silver.

The sound of the piano is long, the dancing posture is light, and the beautiful shadow falls on the drum surface and the red silk.

His figure flickered between the constantly changing drums and the red silk, his sleeves fluttered, and his long hair fluttered.

He threw out a spirit stone, and then jumped up on the spirit stone. After stepping on the spirit stone, the spirit stone was broken, and the spiritual power in the spirit stone was absorbed instantly.When the debris fell, it looked like broken pear blossoms, and the scattered catkins were unexpectedly beautiful.

Tang Ming has always been Ming Shaoluo's crazy suitor, obsessed with Ming Shaoluo's beauty.

When he saw Chi Muyao breaking the formation, he couldn't help sighing: "It's so beautiful..."

The words came out of his mouth, and only after he said them did he notice that these words made Ming Shaoluo unhappy, so he quickly restrained his intoxicated gaze, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva in embarrassment, so as to cover up his lack of focus just now.

Mu Ren watched Chi Muyao break through the formation, and counted silently. At the beginning, he was still silent, but after seventy, he gradually made a sound.

The other onlookers in the formation also opened their eyes wide, subconsciously holding their breath.

The most critical last few hits!

"Seventy, 71... Eighty, 81!" At the last sound, Muren's voice raised a lot, and there was surprise in his words.

It worked!

One time success!

It is done cleanly and neatly, the movements are smooth and smooth, and it is done in one go.

After counting, Mu Ren actually breathed a sigh of relief for Chi Muyao. He looked down on Chi Muyao before, but now he actually approves of him.

When he meets a truly capable person, he will change his attitude instead.

Ming Shaoluo watched Chi Muyao pass the customs in disbelief, and Mu Ren changed from the way he hated Chi Muyao in the past, and even regained his confidence because Chi Muyao successfully broke the formation, and planned to try again.

It seems that when Chi Muyao broke through, Mu Ren was summing up his experience at the same time.

How could this be?

What is the origin of this Chi Muyao? !

How can it be?

A piece of waste from the Imperial Pet Faction!

how is this possible? ! !

She looked around at other people, and everyone seemed to be amazed at Chi Muyao's ability to break the formation. Some were shocked, some questioned, and some lost face.

But what's more, the shock after being amazed can't fade for a long time.

"This disciple of the Royal Pet Sect is so powerful."

"Suddenly felt that the title of the number one beauty in the Three Realms is well deserved, the scene of him beating the drum just now was so beautiful!"

"I didn't expect him to be so clever..."

At this time, Chi Muyao, who had successfully broken through the formation and was teleported out, naturally didn't know that Ming Shaoluo bit his lip in anger.

He didn't touch the teleportation stone in the room for a long time, but stood quietly leaning on the wall.

"My old waist...ah, it hurts!"

He was in so much pain that he didn't dare to move, and stood quietly for a long time with one hand on his waist and the other on the wall.

When he broke the formation, his waist flashed, and he stood still for a while before realizing that he had the ability to heal, and then secretly healed his waist.

His broken knees and waist have old "diseases" and are not suitable for this kind of action.

"Illness" was caused in the cave that year.
