There are bandits in Zhongshan

Although Xuanwu only had skeletons left, it still looked like he was alive, as if he would roar into the air the next moment.

The body has decayed, but the divine power is still there.

Looking at those two pairs of empty eye sockets, Chang Li couldn't help clenching the hilt of the sword more and more. She always felt that there was a gaze coming from there, looking down at herself from a high position, like looking at a tiny dust mustard.

She didn't recover until she was pulled by Zhong Mingzhu, and then saw Zhong Mingzhu striding towards the skeleton, she hurriedly stopped her and said: "Wait a minute, it may be dangerous."

Zhong Mingzhu gently patted her arm comfortingly, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, he's already dead." There was a strange look in her eyes, as if she had finally found some long-lost treasure.

"Are you sure?" Chang Li glanced at the huge skeleton, "But I always feel that he is still alive."

"Because this is a god." Zhong Mingzhu held her hand and pulled her forward together, "The blood and bones of gods are born from the heaven and the earth, and will not turn into dust after death, but will merge with the mountains and rivers." , and become part of the mountains and rivers."

"But why is this a complete skeleton?"

Zhong Mingzhu thought for a moment, and said: "I heard that after the division of the three realms, some old gods stayed in the lower realms and lived in hibernation to die. I think he was discovered shortly after his death, and then that person took him as The eyes of the array set up the spiritual array we are in, that's why he didn't merge with the mountains and rivers, but turned into spiritual power little by little, first flesh and blood, then bones, and when it completely disappeared, the spiritual array failed. "

"Gods will grow old too?" Changli asked curiously, she always thought that mortals practiced in order to stand shoulder to shoulder with gods, so gods would naturally be immortal.

According to the legends she knew, most of the dead gods died from killing, or lost their power on their own, and she had never heard of those who died of old age.

"Everything will grow old, whether it is gods or mortals, or even dead things such as mountains, rocks and water droplets, will grow old and die." Zhong Mingzhu smiled, talking about the coming end but still calm, " The mountains will be swallowed by the sea, and land will be born in the sea, and the world will change, not to mention all things born in the world."

"But they all say that if you attain the Tao, you will live forever."

"None of the monks in the lower world have cultivated the so-called Dao in their mouths, so how do they know that immortals can live forever?"

Changli was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but feel that what Zhong Mingzhu said was more reasonable. Confusion flashed in her eyes, and she said lightly as if she was talking to herself: "But you haven't become a fairy yet, so how do you know that a fairy can't live forever?" ?”

Zhong Mingzhu turned his head to look at her, and suddenly burst out laughing, "Yes, I don't know, I just speculate based on the death."

After the words were finished, they were already in front of the skeleton. Zhong Mingzhu reached out and touched the head of the black turtle lightly. Changli saw the light blue aura pouring into her body like a spring looking for direction.

"Although we have broken through the lost trace formation to find the location of the formation's eye, the lost trace formation is only a part of the spirit formation here, and it will take some time to find its source." A sliver of spiritual energy was drawn from the center of the head, drew a circle on the ground, and then sat down in one of them, the light blue spiritual power immediately covered her.

"A Zhu?" Changli felt nervous when he saw that Zhong Mingzhu seemed to be disappearing into the aura.

"It's okay, the spiritual power in this skeleton is as inexhaustible as the water in the sea to me, and I just borrowed it for use." Zhong Mingzhu signaled that she didn't need to worry, "Just practice here, don't wander around. "

Afterwards, Changli saw Zhong Mingzhu close his eyes, and his whole body became as quiet as a statue, except for the spiritual power swirling around her, there was no movement at all.

This will find a way out?Changli couldn't figure it out, but she soon noticed that Zhu Mingtie scattered around was also moving at the same pace as Zhong Mingzhu's flickering spirit pattern, so she guessed that Zhong Mingzhu was using the Xuanwu bone to move. Zhu Mingtie's spiritual power was mobilized to discover the mystery of this spiritual formation.

In this way, it is indeed much faster than using her own spiritual power.

After she understood it, Changli calmed down a little. She noticed that the spiritual power around the skeleton was extremely abundant, even several times thicker than that of the twin trees in Zhaoyao Mountain. This practice, but she herself has no such thoughts at all. She thought that if she wandered too far away, she would not have time to deal with it if something happened, so she simply did nothing and stood beside Zhong Mingzhu quietly with her sword in her hand, looking at it from time to time. A few glances at Zhu Mingtie's movements to guess the progress.

She has lived such a life for hundreds of years, and she doesn't find it too hard. If she is worried that Zhong Mingzhu's so-called knowing everything after going out, she will think of some countermeasures. Let's talk about the real dragon's bone.

During this period, I had several headache attacks, but none of them were serious, as long as I concentrated and held my breath, I could maintain my sanity.She wondered if it might have something to do with this aura.

This light blue spiritual power seems to contain healing effects in itself.

In this way, a month flew by.

Just when Changli began to think about how to make Zhong Mingzhu's cultivation progress faster, Zhu Mingzhu's posts suddenly burst into dazzling light, and they were nailed into the ground in the blink of an eye, forming three circles to surround Xuanwu, and then , Changli saw the spirit pattern on it flowing, the 64 spirit patterns on Zhu Mingtie were connected together like a whirling stream of water, I saw the spiritual power flowing out of the Xuanwu skeleton, flowing through Zhu Mingtie, A water network covering every inch of the ground is formed, but in the end it returns to the beginning, and spiritual power gushes out continuously, and then returns continuously, without end.

Changli stared at the pattern on the ground, and found that the spiritual flow created by Zhu Mingtie connected the original messy lines together. At this moment, she heard a slow voice from behind herself: "Okay, you can go."

Zhong Mingzhu had already walked out of the circle, and with a touch of her hand, the traces on the ground disappeared, and the light blue spiritual power around her also faded away.

"Are you okay?" Changli looked at Zhong Mingzhu's face carefully, "Are you tired?"

"With this treasure house here, how can I be tired." Zhong Mingzhu shook his head, then beckoned to Changli for her to follow, and then walked towards the tail of Xuanwu.

Chang Li glanced back and asked doubtfully, "Will Zhu Mingtie be taken away?"

"It's a pity to rely on them to temporarily curb the spiritual flow, but the most urgent thing is to leave this place." Zhong Mingzhu walked forward, but after walking for a while, he found that Chang Li hadn't followed. Looking back, he found that she was still standing in the original place. He stared at the skeleton everywhere, wondering what he was thinking.

She had to turn back: "Why don't you go?"

Chang Li answered somewhat irrelevantly: "It's really the bone of a real dragon."

"So what? You still want to take it away?" Zhong Mingzhu raised his eyebrows, "This thing is so big, you can't move it, at least you must have the ability of your lonely ancestor."

"Little uncle said that to heal the damage to your spiritual sea, you need the bone of a real dragon."

Zhong Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he realized that a sense of ninja flashed across his eyes, and soon, that ninja turned into emotion, she touched her nose, shook her head with a smile, her smile was a little helpless , but there was no trace of frivolity in her eyes. Then, she let out a long breath, walked behind Changli and suddenly hugged her from behind, resting her chin on her shoulders, watching him open his eyes like a small animal. He turned around and said with a smile: "Aren't you in a hurry? If that's the case, it's not too late to ask Master Gu Hong for help after returning to Yunfu Mountain."

"En." Chang Li replied, his voice muffled.

Zhong Mingzhu noticed that Changli's face was red, her ears were also red, complex emotions flashed in her eyes, her hands tightened tightly, then she closed her eyes suddenly, lowered her head, put her forehead against Changli's shoulder, and sighed Only after taking a breath did he let go, and said softly, "Let's go."

At the end of Xuanwu, Zhong Mingzhu looked at the last tailbone for a moment, then led Changli to the direction pointed by the tip of the tailbone, and then explained: "This bone is the eye of the array, and the spiritual power is used as the eye of the formation." The center flows, and where there is an entry, there must be an exit, the spiritual energy flows in from the head, and then flows out from the tail, so that the cycle of reincarnation is endless, Xiaojing Lake is the place where the spiritual energy flows in, at that time you tried to go against the current, so there was a lot of resistance." She said pointing her finger With a flick, the momentum of spiritual power flowing in front of the two of them immediately appeared, "And the tail points to the source of the spiritual power. If we walk in that direction, even if we don't use any effort, we will be pushed out."

"I see."

It didn't take long for them to reach the square pillar at the farthest edge. As Zhong Mingzhu said, they continued to walk a few steps forward. Changli felt a large amount of spiritual power rushing from behind, like an invisible The giant hand pushed her forward.

She embraced Zhong Mingzhu, twirled the seal with her hands, and jumped out like an arrow, jumping into the spiritual flow, not long after, she felt ice-cold water pouring in from all directions.

The same as when she came, the exit was also a rugged waterway. She opened the enchantment to protect herself and Zhong Mingzhu. She did not know how long she had been sneaking in the dark. When I looked at it, I found that the water was turbulent not far away, like a white dragon rushing forward, but the water in the place was very calm.

Zhong Mingzhu said: "This should be a pool, and there is an undercurrent as the exit of the secret realm. It is very common to have undercurrents in the depths of still water. We were just pushed out." She pointed to the source of light on the top, "That's the water surface .”

Changli immediately took her there, without the obstruction of the spiritual flow, she moved as quickly in the water as on land, the pool was about hundreds of feet deep, but she jumped out of the water in an instant with Zhong Mingzhu, steady It landed steadily on the bluestone beside the pool.

The sun was shining brightly all around, the mountains were clear and the water was beautiful, and there was a waterfall flying down nearby, and the water splashed on the two of them.

Finally came out, Chang Li secretly sighed, but the next moment she felt that the surrounding scene was extremely familiar.

Especially for the waterfall, the mountain presents a three-tier staircase from top to bottom, and the water mist from the rush of the water is shining with silver light, like three auspicious clouds.

"This is..." Changli looked around in disbelief, and soon found that the plants and trees that came into view were all familiar, and next to the water pool was a green bamboo, with shallow leaves remaining on the bamboo pole. The traces are left after the bamboo branches are broken.

"Sandie Waterfall?" Zhong Mingzhu's voice was also full of doubts, it seemed that it took her a long time to react, and her voice became much louder, "This is Yunfu Mountain!"

The exit of the secret realm was actually under Tiantai Peak.

Not long ago, they were at the shore of Xiaojing Lake, which was several days away from Yunfu Mountain, their lives were hanging by a thread, but now they have returned to the sect.

"Is this true?" Chang Li murmured, although he confirmed it repeatedly, there was still doubt in his words.

Even if it is experienced personally, it is as illusory as a dream.

In particular, there is no one living in Tiantai Peak, so quiet, it will not arouse suspicion if it is an illusion.

Trapped in Liuhe Pagoda for so long, she is always very sensitive to hallucinations and the like, for fear of falling into a situation of eternal doom again.

Zhong Mingzhu patted her arm for reassurance, and thought: "Let's go to Tianyi Peak right away, Brother Feng said that the master master personally guards the mountain gate, he must be there, and then we will know whether it is true or not. "

"it is good."

Changli's flying sword was lost, and the two of them took Zhong Mingzhu's flying sword to Tianyi Peak together.

Tiantai Peak is the last of the seven peaks of Tianyi Sect. On the way to Tianyi Peak, you will pass Yulong, Langhui, and Buyu three peaks. Changli found that although there is spiritual energy left there, there is no one on the square. It looks a bit like Qianmian When Yan invaded, except for facing everyone, the other low-ranking disciples all retreated to the valley outside the Seven Peaks, but looking around, there was no sign of fighting, she couldn't help saying: "It's strange."

Walking near Tianyi Peak, Zhong Mingzhu suddenly seemed to feel something, and glanced at the top of the mountain, with a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The next moment, I saw a group of people rushing here from Taiyi Square.

The first person in the purple robe was Yun Yi.

Changli said in the middle that Yunfu Mountain has a large formation to protect the mountain, and the main peak will be alarmed by the slightest turbulence. Yun Yi thought that as soon as they appeared on Tiantai Peak, Yun Yi would have noticed it, so they immediately sent someone to find out.

It seemed that it wasn't an illusion anymore, she breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Yun Yi approaching her, she immediately saluted and said, "Senior Brother Yun."

Soon she felt that something was wrong. There was no smile on Yun Yi's face, and it even seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost. He was completely different from the suzerain who always wore a gentle smile in the past. The posture, and the dozen or so people behind him are all the elites of the Yuanying cultivation base, and they all have magic weapons in their hands.

Changli's first reaction was that he violated the rules by going back to the sect without going through the mountain gate, but soon realized that Yun Yi was not looking at her, but at Zhong Mingzhu behind her, like a sharp sword. There was anger and hatred in his eyes, as well as some emotions that seemed to be jealous.

It looked like he was trying to restrain himself, to not let his guard down.

How is this going?Before she had time to ask, she heard Yun Yi say: "Junior Sister, follow your Senior Sister Xiao to Zhenwu Hall to wait for orders."

Xiao Yue nodded, came out from behind Yun Yi, and signaled Chang Li to follow.

"But Ah Zhu..." Changli glanced at Zhong Mingzhu, but smiled at him reassuringly.

"Master, the journey is exhausting, you should go and rest first." She looked at the flying sword under her feet and spread her hands, "Master, can I borrow a flying sword?"

Yun Yi took one hand, and a flying sword immediately stopped beside Zhong Mingzhu.

Zhong Mingzhu jumped on the flying sword, and then said with a smile, "I don't know if the master master wants to find me."

"Take it away." Yun Yi sized her up coldly, and then gave an order, the disciples except Xiao Yue immediately divided into two rows, surrounded Zhong Mingzhu, and then led her to the top of Tianyi Peak.

"Senior brother Yun?" Changli wanted to follow subconsciously, but was stopped by Xiao Yue, who shook his head at her and said, "Junior sister, please be safe, master uncle is waiting for you at Zhenwu Hall."

Changli glanced at Zhong Mingzhu again, bit her lower lip, and then quickly headed towards Zhenwu Hall. She flew so fast that she left Xiao Yue behind in the blink of an eye.

When she reached the top of Taiyi Square, she immediately recognized the black robe standing in the middle of the square.

"Master." Without even slowing down, she jumped off the flying sword at a height of more than ten feet above the ground, landed on Wu Hui's face, and said anxiously after a hasty salute, "What happened? Brother Yun Why did you take Ah Zhu away?"

"Going down the mountain, I know that I have saluted and made progress." Wu Hui looked at her, but answered irrelevantly, "The skill has also improved by leaps and bounds. Sure enough, I was right when I said that I entered the world."

"Master!" Changli didn't want to listen to this at all, she saw that Yun Yi's face was unkind, obviously aimed at Zhong Mingzhu, she couldn't help feeling confused, "Azhu, she..."

"Although you made a big mistake, I miss you unintentionally, and the suzerain promised not to pursue it." Wu Hui interrupted her sharply, "But that evil animal will never be spared."

Never forgive?

The four words were not due to Jinglei, Changli felt his mind went blank, and hurriedly said without thinking: "Although Ah Zhu has a stubborn temper, she is wanton and rude, but she is far from death."

She clenched her hands tightly, pressed her fingertips into her palms, and forced herself to calm down. She thought to herself: Could it be that the matter between me and her was known by the master, and the master cannot tolerate this, but how did the master know?Could it be that Nephew Feng came back one step earlier and informed Senior Brother Yun?

Thinking of this, she blurted out: "Master, this matter is not the responsibility of one person. If punishment is to be imposed, the disciple cannot escape the responsibility. I hope Master will clearly investigate."

"What did you say?" Wu Hui flicked his sleeves heavily, his voice became more and more severe, "That wicked animal wants to overthrow my Tianyi sect, and you know it?"

"What?" Chang Li's eyes were filled with shock, it was the first time she showed such an obvious expression, "Overthrowing the division?"

"Hmph! Since you have been kept in the dark and know nothing, please say a few words!"

At this time, there was a sudden violent spiritual vibration from the top of the mountain. It seemed that a magic talisman had been detonated. Obviously, someone was fighting there.

Changli immediately thought of the talisman that Zhu Maolin gave to Zhong Mingzhu that day. After the battle of Xiaojinghu, she still had a few talismans left in her hand. The one just now had a light green spirit pattern, as if it came from Zhu Maolin.

"What's going on..." Chang Li shook his head, feeling dizzy, and took a step back weakly, looking back and forth between the top of the mountain and Wu Hui, unable to figure out why it happened like this.

Obviously a moment ago, she was still relieved to return to the teacher's school.

"You reflect on it here." Wu waved his hand back, opened the barrier to cover Changli, and then walked towards the top of the mountain in a flash.

A few more talismans were exploded, and one of them even turned the unmelted ice at the highest point into water vapor, exposing the dark mountain inside.

No... I can't just wait here...

Chang Li took a step forward, but was quickly stopped by the barrier.

Her eyes were red, and she swung her palm heavily towards the barrier. Xiao Yue, who was standing by, quickly said, "Junior Junior Sister, calm down."

"No matter what it is..." Chang Li didn't even look at her, as if there was no one around him, "At least I want to see it with my own eyes!"

Bitter sword energy shot up into the sky, dyeing every inch of the air with a cold light, forcing Xiao Yue to retreat to the edge of the square to avoid being affected, and only a blurry afterimage remained in the center of the square.

The white clothes have already blended with the snow color of the mountain.

As soon as he reached the top of the mountain, Changli saw a shocking red.

The bright red blood draws an enchanting totem on the snow, which looks like blooming flowers and burning flames. Zhong Mingzhu is wearing white clothes, but now that white clothes have been stained red by blood, and she kneels in the middle of the blood. , blood kept falling, from all over her body.

Shoulders, arms, back, side waist...

In just a short while, she was already covered in wounds, her fair face was covered in blood, and even those light-colored eyes seemed to be stained with the dark color of blood.

Several disciples behind Yun Yi were also injured, probably by Zhong Mingzhu's talisman.

Yun Yi didn't expect that she was hiding such a powerful talisman, so he avoided it. If it wasn't for the protection of the mountain protection array, those disciples would have died.

Wu Hui was healing those disciples, but Yun Yi was full of anger: "Demon, don't think that someone will come to help you if you delay, Lu Lin has been trapped by us, today you will definitely die!"

With a wave of the magical weapon in his hand, the sharp blades condensed by spiritual power rushed towards Zhong Mingzhu like a rainstorm. Zhong Mingzhu threw a white jade box, blocking most of the spiritual blades, but seven or eight fell on her. On her body, several scars were added on her arms and legs, and one went straight through her chest. The blood mist spread from behind, and painted a thick stroke on the snow.

"Don't!" Changli rushed over, all calmness, rationality, and family discipline were all abandoned. When she saw the bloody body, she felt that her whole heart seemed to be crushed, and the pain was unbearable. The body replaced Zhong Mingzhu to bear these injuries.She stood in front of Yun Yi, stopped his next attack, and said incoherently: "Senior brother Yun, what did she, what did she do wrong?"

"Changli! Get out of the way! Don't be obsessed with it!" Yun Yi shouted. He had never treated Changli so mercilessly. This time, he even put on the posture of the suzerain and ordered Changli not to interfere.

Chang Li was pushed away by him, staggered a few steps, and his eyes fell on Zhong Mingzhu.

Zhong Mingzhu also saw her, she squinted her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth, and laughed.

If there were no blood stains on her face, she would look the same as before.

"Not good!" Chang Li suddenly heard Wu Hui's voice.

Strange streaks of light rose from the blood on the ground, and in the next moment, the sound of chains breaking was heard. At the same time, a goose-yellow figure jumped up from the snow and rushed towards Changli with a grinning grin.

Changli recognized those slender eyes, and only then did she realize that there was someone else behind Zhong Mingzhu, and it was Qian Mianyan.

She suddenly thought of what Wu Hui said about "overthrowing the Tianyi School".

The muscles and bones in the thin hands were fully exposed, and the five fingers acted as claws, grabbing her face mercilessly.

If caught, the skull must be shattered.

But her attention was still on the smile on Zhong Mingzhu's lips, as if locked there, unable to escape.

Just when the sharp fingertips were about to touch her, the howling sound of the sword dragged out a long lingering sound, and the clear sword light covered the goose-yellow Taoist robe, carving a fine net.

Then, the figure that was still invincible at that moment before became torn apart. At the critical moment, Wu Hui killed Qianmianyan with hundreds of swords.

Qian Mianyan's body shattered right in front of Chang Li's eyes, but not a single drop of blood flew out.

Among the scattered fragments, carefully polished spirit stones and instruments flew out, and even some fragments in the shape of spirit symbols fell on the snow together, like some disassembled instruments.

Changli suddenly realized that this Qianmianyan was not a living person, but a puppet!

Like the team that Xiaojinghu repelled Ye Lianxi's men, it was a puppet made by Li Langxuan.

Afterwards, a crimson flame ignited on the fragments, and as if alive, it climbed over the bloodstains on the ground and flowed in the same direction. The blood where it flowed was swept away, leaving only the initial whiteness. Converged on the scarred figure.

Every scar was covered by flames, and when the flames disappeared, the skin there became smooth and clean, even the blood hole on the chest disappeared, and the tattered outer shirt was restored to its original place with a light touch of a white hand A little bit of blood.

Finally, the fire entered the eyes, and the light-colored pupils slowly closed, and when they opened again, they had turned into an almost coquettish purple.

Everything happened between the fire and light stones. When the fragments of Qianmianyan just fell into the snow, Zhong Mingzhu stood up unscathed, with a lazy smile on his face, as if everything before was just hallucinations.

Chang Li looked at the face he had seen for more than 100 years, and then at the familiar purple, a bone-chilling chill emerged from the bottom of his heart, and quickly swept through his limbs and bones.

"You..." She was almost unable to make a sound, trembling slightly, almost raving, "Are you Qianmianyan?"

"I'm not Qianmianyan." Zhong Mingzhu looked at Changli and smiled, looking a little helpless and seemingly indifferent, she flicked her fingers, and the fragments scattered on the ground were instantly crushed into dust.

This is something that cannot be done with all the strength of the Foundation Establishment cultivation base, not even the initial cultivation base of Huashen.

Those fragments are all high-quality magic weapons, and it is so easy to break into pieces against Wu Hui's sword. If the cultivation base is a little low, it is extremely difficult to create even small wounds.

And Zhong Mingzhu turned it all into powder with just a flick of her fingers. She glanced at Changli, the purple in her eyes had dissipated, and turned back to gray. He touched his nose uncomfortably.

These little habits are exactly the same as the girl Changli is familiar with, even the arc of her raised eyebrows is exactly the same.Changli couldn't help but think that everything before was just a ridiculous dream, and the next moment, she heard Zhong Mingzhu sigh faintly.

"To be precise, it should be—" before Zhong Mingzhu finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of the debris rolling into the distance, and immediately complained in a low voice, "This useless puppet is really causing me trouble", and then seemed to be unable to escape He coughed lightly and continued:

"Qianmianyan is me."
