Alienated Martial Arts

Empty foggy mountains.

Qingnv carefully took an icicle, melted it and boiled it, added a little tea leaves to it, and handed it to Ni Xun's hand.

Behind him, the golden tent lieutenant wrapped in a black robe remained motionless, as if he had blended into the cave wall.

Ni Hao held the tea cup and drank it slowly, enjoying the rare hot taste in the cold weather.

On her wrist, a wisp of crystal clear silk threads meandered and moved, as if they were alive.

Not long after, she drank the last sip of tea, but still held the teacup in her hands and spoke slowly with a calm expression.

"Junior Brother Wei and I told you that you are still seriously injured and Tongshu is weak-minded. Taking you there won't be of much help.

It would be better for you to stay and chat with me than to face these spiritual beasts and the Dingxuanmen who are as motionless as wax figures all day long. "

Qingnu lowered her eyes and said softly, "Whether I go to Bingpo Ling Island with Mr. Wei, or stay in Kongwu Mountain with Miss Ni, I will never have any complaints."

"Sister Qingnv doesn't have to be so restrained in front of me, and there's no need to be so hostile between us."

Ni Xun smiled faintly and said, "Junior brother once said before that you should treat your own people as warm as spring, and treat your enemies like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. You must clean them up.

So I am keeping you here for the sake of my junior brother.

Because you really can't help, and after getting along with him for a period of time, as long as you don't behave abnormally, when he encounters danger, he may still take care of you as one of his own. This is not a drag on him. What are the hind legs? "

"So, if I ask Sister Qing to stay, I will cause you to be introduced into the body by Junior Sister Yunhong, so you don't have any complaints.

After all, being able to avoid the danger in the depths of the Black Ice Sea is a good thing for you anyway, not a bad thing. "

The young girl slowly raised her head, her eyes shining brightly.

She helped Ni Xun refill the tea and sighed softly.

"I understand what Miss Ni means very well, but regarding the mysterious silk thread entering my body, my subordinates not only do not think it is a precaution or warning to me, but instead think it is a great kindness bestowed upon me by Young Master Wei."

"Before this, I never thought that there could be such a mysterious and exquisite thing in the world, it is simply beyond my imagination.

Not only did it heal my lingering injuries, but it even opened a door for me, and I even had the hope of transforming myself from condensation to spiritual transformation, from a warlock to an alchemist. "

Qingnu spoke slowly, then her expression suddenly changed and she turned to look outside the cave.

A moment earlier than her, Ni Xun had already noticed it. He came outside the cave in a flash and his eyes fell on a ray of light that quietly appeared in the sky.

It was a bloody rainbow across the clouds.

In an instant, it crossed the Kongwu Mountain Range and disappeared at the end of the sky.

"How can it be……"

"How is this feeling possible?"

Qingnv frowned and muttered to herself in disbelief.

"Beyond the transformation of gods, there is Dongxuan. The Dongxuan alchemist condenses his body. From then on, he can take an important step to transcend the world.

However, the unique aura of the alchemist's body loomed in the depths of this bloody light, but it gave people a chaotic and crazy feeling, as if he had used the body of a demon to create a mysterious body. It was an unheard-of and unseen sight. "

And after the bloody rainbow disappeared.

Suddenly another golden light fell from the sky.

Illuminating large areas of dark and gloomy night sky.

Ni Xun gently exhaled a breath of white mist, "With such a strong Brahma spirit, could it be that the Lord of the Golden Tent is here in person?"

"I don't know if my junior brother will meet them and have a life-or-death confrontation with them."

What exactly is a fairy?

Or to put it another way.

What exactly is a fairy?

Wei Tao has been thinking about this issue recently.

But still could not come up with a real answer.

After all, as a person, it is difficult to accurately define unknown things that you have not been exposed to.

In the memory of his two lifetimes, he knew many legends and stories about gods and demons, and could even clearly recall various mythological systems.

However, there must be a big question mark as to how authentic they are.

For different practitioners, their respective understandings of immortals are completely different, and there is no unified definition.

For example, in the eyes of alchemists, above the gods is the cave, and above the cave is the calamity. If the alchemist can reverse the destiny of heaven and survive the catastrophe, he can transform into a cave and enter the world that only exists in legends. The realm of heaven and man.

Spirit control masters are very different. They are based on their natal spiritual beasts, and their life span is closely related to the spirit they control.

If you want to live forever and get rid of the limit of life and death, you need to upgrade the life level of the spiritual beast again and again until you finally reach the realm of the Holy Spirit such as the dragon and the phoenix.

Only the monks from the Five Elements Heaven have clearly put forward the concept of immortality, which is to achieve the Taoist body and become an immortal.

Warlocks and spiritual masters both have different philosophies. Although their goals are to achieve immortality and transcendence, the paths they take are completely different.

So in their practice system, whether immortals exist or not, and which realm level they correspond to, may not even be clear to them.

Yun Hong could not give a clear answer to Wei Tao's doubts.

Her judgment of the island came from hints of Bai Ze's true meaning, but the more detailed content was still hazy and vague, and it was impossible to clear away the fog and see the true face.

Two spiritual beasts disappeared without a trace in succession, and Wei Tao couldn't help but feel a little heartache.

He stood in front of the boundary that seemed to exist, but might not exist. He hesitated for a moment whether he should try it for himself and see how powerful the place where the immortals returned to their ruins mentioned by Yun Hong could be.

However, after thinking silently for a moment, he finally gave up the idea.

The first is to survive and the second is to develop.

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger.

Now that he is facing this island, it can be said that his eyes are dark and confused. The most taboo thing is that he is not clear about the situation, is determined, and overestimates his own strength, but he does not know what is hidden under the seemingly calm surface. Terror and danger.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with being cautious. Don’t do things you are not sure about, and don’t do things that are too dangerous. Only in this way can you go further without capsizing halfway due to recklessness.

"What is Senior Brother Wei thinking about?"

Yun Hong's voice sounded quietly, interrupting Wei Tao's lost thoughts.

"I'm thinking about what kind of Tao does it mean to become an immortal, and what does it mean to become an immortal?"

He replied casually, and then asked, "Can you now find the source of that feeling of being spied on?"

Yunhong looked around, a trace of doubt flashing in her eyes, "Ever since we set foot on this island, I no longer feel like I'm being spied on."

"It's gone?"

He sighed, "Why do I suddenly feel that it is better to disappear than to continue to exist, which will make people feel more peaceful."

Yunhong retracted her searching eyes and looked at the lush green mountains in the distance, "So, shall we continue to move forward, or shall we retreat and leave?"

"Everyone in the world thinks that gods are good, but it's a pity that they are nowhere to be found in Yunshen."

Wei Tao was silent for a long time, then sighed lowly and said, "So in my opinion, if there is really an immortal waking up inside, we'd better leave here to avoid disturbing the peaceful life of the immortal."

"Then according to what Senior Brother Wei said, we..."

Yunhong nodded, but stopped when he started to speak.

"somebody is coming."

The next moment, she slowly turned around and looked at Mizuze behind her.

A woman is swimming desperately.

Behind her was a group of fish going crazy with blood, trying to drag her under the water and eat them.

There were dozens of unnamed waterfowl flying around in the sky, swooping down to the water from time to time, some catching fish to feast on, and others pecking directly on her body, causing many new wounds in just a few moments. ,

Wei Tao collected his thoughts and observed carefully, "She was the sorceress who ran away from the beginning, but unexpectedly she turned back again."

Yun Hong added, "She came at just the right time. What does Senior Brother Wei think?"

Wei Tao was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly, "What Junior Sister Yun said is absolutely true, just do what you want."

Senior Sister Qiong has reached her limit.

She didn't expect that besides Chilong, there would be such dangerous existences in the water.

There were bite wounds everywhere on his body, but the feeling was not pain, but an unbearable itching.

Although the waterfront was no longer far away, she only felt despair in her heart, thinking that it was almost impossible for her to escape the siege of these terrifying piranhas.

Suddenly, the fish dispersed without any warning.

Even the birds screamed and flew away.

It was like encountering natural enemies, none of them dared to stay in the nearby waters.

Wow!

The waves splashed and a whirlpool formed on the water.

Senior Sister Qiong felt like she was flying up, her body was being lifted up by something, and she was flying toward the shore at lightning speed.

She subconsciously lowered her head, her eyes fell on the huge Chilong head, and she looked directly into dozens or hundreds of pairs of scarlet eyes. She almost fainted from the huge fear.

When we met not long ago, it didn't seem so hideous and ugly, and it even had a head full of vertical pupils.

Therefore, in this water area, it is very likely that there is not only one Chilong, but two.

Her consciousness went blank, she stumbled ashore, and sat down directly on the crystal clear beach.

At this moment, a gentle man's voice quietly sounded in her ears.

"May I have your name?"

Senior Sister Qiong opened her eyes and struggled to look away from Chilong, who was submerged in the water again, and looked at the young man in front of her who was looking down.

She was about to answer, but then she heard him continue.

"Forget it, there's no point in asking your name now. Let's wait until you survive."

Senior Sister Qiong's heart skipped a beat, and before she could recover, she suddenly jumped into the air, was picked up and thrown towards the depths of the beach.

Plop!

She fell heavily to the ground, the wounds on her body were covered with gravel, and she rolled a few times before stopping.

After taking a few breaths, Senior Sister Qiong slowly stood up, looking up and down her body, a smile of joy appeared on her face involuntarily.

Yunhong carefully observed the changes in her body and suddenly said, "She was not affected in any way. Even the wounds on her body were visibly recovering and getting better."

"No, it's more than that. Her true soul is still being nourished, and it is visibly stronger than before."

"My previous speculation may be wrong. If immortals really exist, then it is more likely that they are not awakening from their slumber, but that the remains of the immortals are gradually dissolving, so that such a rich breath of life can be released to the outside. "

Wei Tao's eyes flashed with a thoughtful expression, "How did Junior Sister Yunhong learn these secrets? Could it be that Bai Ze, who knows the feelings of all things and knows the things before and after, brought you the truth in the dark? A reminder to come?”

Yun Hong nodded first, but then shook his head, "Part of it was obtained from the interaction with Bai Ze's true meaning, and part of it was searched from the memory of the true spirit of the Luocha tribe. I made it on this basis." guess."

"So according to Junior Sister Yun, what exists inside is not danger, but a rare opportunity?"

"I don't know whether it is a danger or an opportunity. Perhaps only after crossing this dividing line can the true face hidden inside be revealed to us."

Wei Tao fell silent and never made a decision.

Neither of them spoke anymore, as if they had turned into two motionless human statues.

On the other side of the dividing line, Senior Sister Qiong didn't know why, but she didn't dare to leave directly.

She stood there honestly, like a child who had done something wrong, waiting for the judgment that would come at some unknown time.

Time passed little by little.

Probably after tea time.

Wei Tao suddenly looked up and saw a golden light shining from the depths of the green mountain.

He could also feel the looming true meaning of Xuanwu, which appeared at the same time as the golden light, causing the fragment in the palm of his left hand to become slightly hot.

"Emperor Wu and Taoist Master Qi are inside."

He took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and then took a step forward.

Uh-huh!

It was as if a warm breeze was blowing.

Wei Tao couldn't help but squint his eyes, feeling a different kind of breath coming quietly, bringing an inexplicable feeling of comfort, as if even his life had been sublimated.

In addition, the hidden injuries from the previous battle also recovered quickly under the infiltration of this breath, and even the spirit became more agile and full.

Immediately afterwards, Yunhong also crossed the dividing line.

Like Wei Tao, she also experienced a moment of trance, and only returned to her original expression of indifference and alienation after a while.

"You are sensible and know how to advance and retreat. Your performance is pretty good."

With a smile on his face, he slowly came to Senior Sister Qiong and said, "Well, now you can tell me what your name is."

Senior Sister Qiong didn't dare to express her anger, "As far as I can tell you, sir, my name is Teng Qiong, and I am a warlock from the Teng family."

"Teng Qiong, a warlock of the Teng family."

Wei Tao thought for a moment, "You should know Teng Wu."

"Yes, Master Tengwu disappeared shortly after he arrived. I don't know where he went."

He nodded and asked casually, "Fan Yu, do you know this name?"

"Sir, are you talking about Fanyu Alchemist?"

Teng Qiong took a cautious look and said, "I have heard of the reputation of Fanyu Alchemist, but I have never seen her in person."

The sky is getting dark and night has fallen.

The green mountain was deathly silent. Apart from the footsteps of the three people, the only thing left was the slowly blowing night wind, which rustled the branches and leaves.

Climbing up a hill, Wei Tao stopped, seemingly in a daze.

Below is a mountain basin.

Its area is not that big.

It is said to be a basin, but it is more like a relatively wide canyon.

But whether it’s a basin or a canyon, these are not the focus.

What really puzzled Wei Tao was that he came after the Qi of the Huangji seal and the true meaning of Xuanwu, and unexpectedly discovered a small town in the valley.

The lights inside were shining brightly, and it seemed like there were still people living there.

A silver moon poked out from the clouds, spreading its light like water across the earth.

"Senior Brother Wei, what do you think?"

Yun Hong stood on one side and asked softly.

"It's not clear from here. I think I should walk over and take a closer look."

Wei Tao felt something in his heart. He raised his head to look at the bright full moon reflecting in the sky, and suddenly asked a question, "Junior sister Yun, don't you think the moon in the sky is a little strange?"

Yunhong was silent for a moment, "It's very strange. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. It should be a crescent moon, not a bright full moon."

While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the lighted town.

Wei Tao hid in the darkness, looking at a stone tablet standing at the entrance of the town, his eyes narrowed slightly.

This time, it was Yun Hong who asked, "Senior Brother Wei, have you also discovered that stone tablet? Does it look familiar?"

Wei Tao nodded and exhaled softly, "Looking at it, it makes me feel like I have returned to the top of Taixuan Mountain. I am about to enter the Taixuan Abyss with other Taoists and see Fangcun Lingshan."
