Beiyin Great Sage

Fire Cloud Escape Technique!

The flames enveloped the whole body and vibrated according to a special pattern, just like an engine running at full speed, pushing the figure to fly forward.

The extreme speed caused Zhou Yi to turn into a line of fire and soar through the air.

The Fire Cloud Escape Technique, which has been practiced for a long time, is not only explosive and violent, but also as agile as a bird, passing through, flying around, and flying around without any problems.

at some point.

"Uh-huh!"

The lines of fire intersect in the sky, evolving into a fiery red lotus that slowly unfolds. The delicate lotus leaves are lifelike and dazzling.

Zizhen stood at the front of the flying boat, looking at the blooming lotus in front of her hands, her beautiful eyes twinkling.

Stunning!

It was obviously a phantom formed by the power of fire, but it gave people a real feeling, which was enough to show that Zhou Yi's escape method had reached an extremely high level.

This person...

What a gift indeed!

She witnessed Zhou Yi practicing the Fire Cloud Escape Technique with her own eyes. Within a few years of starting, he was improving at a speed visible to the naked eye every day.

Obviously the level of escape method is not high, but now it has a speed comparable to the middle stage of Daoji.

More than just escape.

There are other!

The ancient bloodline is worthy of being praised by heaven and earth. Even if it is the true successor of Batu Cave and the unique seed of cultivation, it is still far behind.

"eggplant!"

While he was deep in thought, Zhou Yi suddenly appeared in front of him, holding the magic formula with his hand and making distant gestures at the flaming lotus that had not dispersed in the air.

With a crisp sound, a picture scroll fell into his hand.

"What are you doing?" Zizhen came back to his senses with curiosity in his eyes:

"Did you just cast the Shadow Expansion Technique?"

"Yes." Zhou Yi nodded with a cheerful expression:

"Take a photo and keep it as a souvenir."

He just had a feeling in his heart. Only by breaking through to the realm of Dacheng can he evolve such a real lotus flower, which is worth keeping as a souvenir.

"Waste." Zizhen shook his head:

"That is a talisman scroll that can be used to make spiritual talismans. Although it is not worth many spiritual stones, it is not necessary just to take a photo as a souvenir. Ordinary paper can also be used."

"That kind of paper has a short shelf life and is easily damaged." Zhou Yi put away the scroll and said with a smile:

“In this life, besides achieving the ultimate goal, the scenery is also very important. Of course, meaningful things must be left behind as memories.”

"This way I can see things and recall them when I get older."

"Come!"

He flashed and appeared beside Zizhen, his right hand gestured like scissors and grinned:

"eggplant!"

"Click..."

The two of them, together with the flying boat at their feet, made rubbings on the talisman scroll.

After putting away the talisman scroll, a man and a woman stand side by side on it. The man is smiling, the woman has her eyes turned up, and the mountains and rivers are in the background.

It's not pretty, but it has a sense of life.

"too ugly."

Zizhen lowered his head and stretched out his hand to grab the talisman:

"Give me!"

"Don't." Zhou Yi hurriedly put it into his storage bag and unfolded another blank scroll:

"One more piece."

"You..." Zizhen subconsciously wanted to refuse, but saw that Zhou Yi had already begun to cast a spell, and immediately stood up straight and looked straight ahead.

"Crack!"

This time, Zizhen's stunning appearance was fully imprinted, but it was the ordinary Zhou Yi who seemed to be following him like a servant.

"Um."

Zi Zhen pursed her lips:

"This one is okay, give it to me."

Saying this, he didn't give Zhou Yi time to refuse, so he reached out and snatched it away, and asked casually:

"Others use the rubbing technique to rub techniques and characters, but you found a new way and used it for painting. But what does 'eggplant' mean?"

"Uh..." Zhou Yi blinked:

"I don't know. I said it subconsciously. It should be something like a mantra, right?"

"Huh?" Zi Zhen frowned and said seriously:

"I heard that ancient bloodlines will have inherited memories. If you subconsciously think about it, it may be related to the previous life. Maybe there is something mysterious inside."

?

Zhou Yi was speechless.

Taking pictures and shouting "Eggplant" and "Scissorhands" is indeed a habit of the "previous life", but it is definitely not what I think.

It seems that the other party really regards him as a being with ancient bloodline, but this can also save a lot of unnecessary explanations.

like……

Zizhen didn't find it strange that he was making rapid progress in practicing magic, but took it for granted.

The relationship between the two is also very strange.

Zhou Yi has the spiritual bond of Batu Cave. Although it cannot affect life and death, it will subconsciously make him feel close to Zizhen.

same.

Because of the happy method, Zizhen also feels strange about Zhou Yi.

The two people's bodies are mixed with each other's aura, and even the ups and downs of their thoughts can be sensed by the other party, just like Taoist couples.

In this way, the two don't have to worry about betraying each other. After all, as long as they have thoughts of betrayal, they may be known to the other party.

It is precisely for this reason that Zizhen proposed to match each other as husband and wife.

Breaths match...

Either they are a couple or they are having an affair!

former,

Better.

Glancing at Zhou Yi beside her, she pursed her lips slightly and put away the scroll in her hand.

During this time, the two of them got to know each other day and night, and she got to know Zhou Yi a lot. He had a calm and lively temperament, but overall he was an alien.

seem……

Zhou Yi has his own understanding of heaven and earth, ethics, and personnel.

This kind of understanding is different from ordinary people, at least it is completely different from the people in Batu Caves. Even if they are in a low position, they don't feel the need to respect her at all.

And the idea of ​​rubbing images like today is obviously very abnormal, but for Zhou Yi, it seems to be a matter of course.

All kinds of special features made Zizhen curious about him.

"Desolate city..."

"arrive!"

*

*

*

The deserted city is called "City", but it is actually not a city, but a general name for a region composed of many cities, mountain peaks and even islands.

It's just because there is a big city across the mountains between hundreds of thousands of mountains, isolating the inside and outside of the mountains, hence the name.

The flying boat slowly descended, and two people jumped from it.

With the flash of spiritual light, the huge flying boat turned into the size of a palm and was put into the storage bag by Zizhen.

"You two have just arrived in Huangcheng."

One person came closer:

"Little Chen Liu can see a place thousands of miles away with his eyes closed. Whether it is doing errands, playing, or looking for a place, I can arrange it properly."

Tourist guide?

Chen Liu's attitude was attentive, and there were a dozen people dressed similarly around him, which made Zhou Yi raise his eyebrows, feeling familiar.

However, the man in front of him is a Qi Refiner. He actually engages in such a business, which shows how prosperous the practice of Qi in Huangcheng is.

"Oh!" Zi Zhen asked casually:

"How much does it cost?"

"One spirit stone in seven days." Chen Liu grinned and said:

"If it's less than three days and half a spirit stone, if it's more than three days and less than seven days, it will be counted as seven days. Don't worry, you two, as long as you hire me, you will definitely get value for money."

So expensive!

Zhou Yi secretly clicked his tongue.

Just by leading the way, you can earn four spiritual stones in a month. The outer disciples of Batu Cave can't earn even one even if they work hard.

"good!"

Zizhen was very wealthy and did not bargain. He nodded in agreement:

"Good work."

"It should be." Chen Liu's face was full of joy:

"What plans do you two have? If you haven't been to Huangcheng before, I can introduce you to a few places with beautiful scenery."

"No need for now." Zizhen waved his hand:

"Find an inn to stay in first, preferably one located in a spiritual vein."

"Yes." Chen Liu nodded:

"However, most inns with sufficient aura are not in crowded places, and the rent is not low. You two should be mentally prepared for this."

"It doesn't matter." Zi Zhen said casually:

"Just lead the way."

"yes!"

Chen Liuying is.

Feiyunzhan is located at a spiritual node, covering an area of ​​hundreds of acres, with more than a hundred courtyards of various sizes, and even a spirit gathering formation.

One day of cultivation here is comparable to four or five days in the outside world.

certainly.

The rent is even more expensive.

A one-month long-term rental at a discount also requires ten spiritual stones, and food and drink are not included. Even Zizhen is surprised by such an expense.

This is not the core of the deserted city, but prices are so exaggerated.

"Sister Qin."

After arranging for Zhou Yi and two people to check in, Chen Liu came to the backyard of the inn with a smile:

"I brought two more people here today."

"Yes." Sister Qin was carrying something similar to a barbell to exercise, and when she heard this, she threw a spiritual stone over her:

"What's the origin?"

"I don't know." Chen Liu shook his head:

"It looks like she is a mountain person who has just arrived in the deserted city. She has the cultivation level of the late stage of Qi refining. The woman is born with a beautiful face."

"Tsk tsk..."

"It's a pity that the person you married is not very good."

"A couple in the late stage of Qi refining, from the mountains?" Sister Qin stopped what she was doing and her eyes flashed:

"I see."

"Then..." Chen Liu whispered:

"Do you still need a little inquiring?"

"Do you still need to say it?" Sister Qin looked at her coldly, and an invisible pressure made Chen Liu bow subconsciously:

"Where did they go in the next few days? What did they do? Write them all down one by one. Don't worry, you will benefit from them once everything is done."

"Yes, yes." Chen Liu responded repeatedly, and after receiving the other party's consent, he bent over and stepped back step by step.

…………

"There's something wrong with this inn."

Zhou Yi pushed open the window sash, his brows and eyes swiveled, and the ghostly light gave him a panoramic view of the formation that enveloped the entire inn:

"I'm afraid that the guide just now had second thoughts."

"Um."

Zizhen took off her shoes and socks and sat cross-legged on the bed barefoot. Her expression did not change when she heard this:

"When I was choosing Chen Liu, someone whispered that the last time a high-roller chose him, he disappeared without a trace not long after. I heard it."

The two have been together day and night for a long time, and they will have to act as husband and wife for decades in the future. Naturally, they cannot be on guard all the time in life.

Just like resting, bathing, etc...

Fortunately, both of them are not formal and don't care much, just like now.

"Really?" Zhou Yi touched his chin. He knew that Zizhen's ears were powerful. He could even hear strange sounds ten miles away with his combined ears, and then said:

"It seems that the deserted city is not a good place. What is the cave master going to do next?"

"Don't call the cave master, just call him by his name, so as not to be seen by others." Zizhen said:

"We have hidden our cultivation, and you still have the Delusion Eye to see through the formation. Even if he wants to deal with us, he will be seeking death."

"Don't bother."

Too!

Both of them are Daoji monks, but they have restrained their auras, and the traps aimed at Qi refining monks are useless to them.

"When we come to Huangcheng this time, we will first explore the distribution of forces here, and then find someone to join them." Zizhen said his plan:

"It's definitely not possible to find someone just by the two of us."

"yes."

Zhou Yi smiled and said:

"Having a powerful backer makes it easier to practice and find people. Even if the former cave master comes to find you, you can also borrow help. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone."

"Although my master is not a golden elixir, his strength is definitely not comparable to ordinary Taoist monks." When mentioning the former cave master, Zizhen showed a solemn expression:

"Without the protection of the golden elixir, we may not be able to stop him. Even if we can stop them, we may not take action unless we have enough use."

"certainly!"

"It would be best if we could survive him to death."

The former cave master's life span is approaching, and Zizhen is still very young. It would be best if he could not confront him head-on.

The next day.

Zizhenji took off the boat and flew into the air carrying three people.

The flying boat breaks through the thick clouds and brings out the curling smoke. Standing on it, you can overlook the undulating mountains all around.

"Both of you."

Chen Liu stretched out his hand and pointed forward:

"That's the imperial city over there."

The two looked up, but saw that in the distance, the mountains were connected together, like a naturally formed city wall, and there was a huge gap somewhere in the city wall.

At the gap, a majestic city was built.

The height of the city is even higher than the surrounding mountains, and every mountain peak seen by Dharma Eyes is shining with various auras.

"Um?"

Zi Zhen frowned:

"Why, is there no formation to protect the deserted city?"

"Yes, there is, but it's definitely not what the fairy thought." Chen Liu seemed to be used to similar surprises, and explained with a smile:

"The reason why the deserted city is prosperous is because there is no formation that can cover the entire city. After all, if there is an formation, it will be controlled by the formation."

"Whoever controls the formation will become the master of the deserted city."

The two nodded.

really.

The formation can draw on the power of heaven and earth to the maximum extent. Even the second-level low-grade formation can trap and kill late-stage Taoist monks if it can exert its full power.

If there is a formation that can cover the deserted city, it shouldn't be difficult to kill the golden elixir.

"Without the formation, there is no such thing as an entry fee. Only then can the deserted city attract practitioners from all over the world."

Chen Liu continued:

"The sea is open to all rivers and has tolerance. There are no restrictions in the deserted city. Not to mention us, even many Taoist monks are willing to come and exchange their income."

"In addition, this place is a necessary place for communication between people inside and outside the mountains, so it has become increasingly prosperous. There has been no one like it for thousands of years."

"That makes sense." Zhou Yi nodded:

“But wouldn’t it be too chaotic without a manager?”

In his memory, the most obvious difference between modern cities and ancient times is the lack of city walls, which greatly facilitates the exchange of materials.

"If there is no formation, there may not be no manager." Chen Liu explained:

"Many forces in Huangcheng have formed a law enforcement hall, which is responsible for handling various matters. The leader of the hall is the famous Master Qianhe of Divine Sword Peak!"

Master Qianhe!

Golden elixir master!

There are only a handful of golden elixir masters in Shiwandashan, and Zhenren Qianhe is one of them.

Moreover, this person has a cold personality, does not talk about personal feelings, and is loyal to the law of sword control throughout his life. He can also convince others that he is in charge of the law enforcement hall.

"also……"

"All forces have their own territory, and they must follow the rules in their territory, otherwise they will die without knowing how."

The two of them understood.

While he was talking, Feizhou had already arrived near the deserted city. Even the most basic no-fly formation was not set up here, and the sky was filled with flying auras.

To be able to fly, even with the help of magic weapons, the minimum level of cultivation is the middle stage of Qi refining.

“It’s really a holy place for spiritual practice!”

Looking at this scene, Zhou Yi couldn't help but sigh, and then said:

"I wonder if there are any cultivation techniques for sale?"
