Beiyin Great Sage

Zhou Yi has been out for several years and doesn't know much about the situation nearby, but in the past few days, he has gained some understanding of the current situation.

Since witnessing the launch of the Qimen Formation, the Situ family has begun to move their children here.

at the same time.

Situ Xuan led the Yue Island aborigines to open up wasteland and conquer nearby forces one by one, and set up several markets for cultivators to trade.

To the monks nearby, although the Situ family was domineering, their actions were not necessarily bad.

After all, the Situ family wants to settle here in the long term, so they will not be short-sighted in doing things and pay more attention to the impression of the family's reputation in the minds of others.

In the established market, fighting is strictly prohibited.

Within the sphere of influence, calamity cultivation is prohibited.

…

Many rules are a great joy to the casual cultivators who are like duckweeds.

Gradually, more and more monks were attracted to settle here, and the Situ family completely established a foothold in this area.

But a few years ago, things changed.

"The Situ family acted domineeringly and offended many people in the early years." Wang Tian said:

"Since the death of Master Jindan, our family's life has become increasingly difficult, but thanks to thousands of years of accumulation, we can't survive for a while."

"But the decline of the family is a foregone conclusion in the eyes of some people."

Above the clouds, Zhou Yi and Zizhen nodded.

They had known this for a long time, and that was why they joined the Situ family, because the Situ family, who were in urgent need of manpower, gave them good treatment.

In just a few decades, the two have accumulated a lot of resources.

"Although we are unwilling to do so, our family must be aware of our situation. Therefore, in order to preserve our strength or prepare for emergencies, we have sent some Daoji monks to deploy forces on the edge of the deserted city near the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains."

"so……"

"Even if our family suffers, we can continue the legacy."

Wang Tian grew up in Situ's family with Taoist Master Xinyuan since he was a child. He knows the Situ family far better than outsiders. He continued:

"Besides Miss Xuan, there are others doing similar things, but they are obviously not as smooth as Ri Feng Yue Dao."

"It's a pity that the big tree attracts wind. In addition to targeting our own family, the enemies of the Situ family also attract our attention."

"That's it." Zhou Yi understood, and then showed regret:

"I thought I could live a stable life, but it seems like things are going the other way!"

"Senior, there is no need to worry." Wang Tian said hurriedly:

"You are an array master. There is no need to fight with others. Let's just go out for a walk. Miss Xuan won't blame you."

Zhou Yi shook his head gently.

Even the Supreme Elder Situ Tianyun, who had not lived a good life for many years, personally took action. If they took advantage of the situation, they would inevitably be resented.

Maybe it doesn't show up on the face, but not necessarily in the heart.

And even if he didn't take action, Zizhen wouldn't be able to escape.

"senior."

As he spoke, a ray of light flew from the water below. The light dispersed and revealed a beautiful cultivator. She cupped her fists and cupped her hands towards the three of them and said:

"When we find the location of a group of robbery cultivators, please help me, senior!"

"Yes." Zizhen nodded, his eyes fell on the person who came, and his beautiful eyes flashed slightly:

"Thirty years of bone age, perfect Qi refining, what is your name?"

"Junior Situ Qionghua." The female cultivator said.

"Situ Qionghua." Zizhen said thoughtfully:

"I have heard of your name. You are the leader of the younger generation of the Situ family. It is really extraordinary when I see you today. There is a successor to the Situ family!"

"Senior, you are overly praised." Situ Qiong's face was slightly moved:

"Junior has always been targeting you."

These words come from the bottom of my heart. Although there is no such thing as the superiority of men and women in the spiritual world, it is almost impossible for female cultivators to make great achievements as long as they give birth to offspring.

Pregnancy for ten months and raising a baby require a lot of time and energy, which can even deplete one's vitality and is not conducive to spiritual practice.

Therefore, among the top experts, there are very few female cultivators.

Zizhen is still less than a hundred years old, but his cultivation is approaching the late stage of Daoji. Putting aside the pill formation for now, he will definitely be a perfect master of Daoji in the future.

This can already stand out from the crowd.

In addition, the husband and wife of the couple, with the male leading the household and the female leading the household, naturally serve as independent and strong role models for women in the eyes of others, and have also attracted the admiration of many female monks.

Situ Qionghua is one of them.

"Let's go."

Zhou Yi stretched out his hand to signal:

"Lead the way."

"yes."

Situ Qionghua came back to her senses and escaped from the light, leading the three of them to fly to a small island in the distance.

Before he got close, Wang Tian noticed something strange:

"Array?"

"good."

Zhou Yi nodded:

"It is a first-level high-level formation Hunyuan Water Formation. It uses the power of water to push the power of earth. It is not a high-level formation, but it fits the surrounding terrain. Even those who are new to Taoism cannot break it."

"The way of formation lies in using the power of heaven and earth. Being able to set up this formation is enough to show that the person who set up the formation has considerable attainments in formation."

Wang Tian nodded silently and asked a few questions that he didn't understand, and received answers one by one.

The reason why she followed Zhou Yi and his wife on this trip was to facilitate her consultation on the formation.

For the sake of the late Taoist priest Xinyuan, Zhou Yi was not stingy in imparting the knowledge of formations, but in his opinion, Wang Tian's understanding of formations was mediocre.

Not to mention that compared to Taoist Xinyuan, even he couldn't compare.

Even if there is a heritage, I am afraid that I will only be able to get up or down, but everyone has his own ambitions, and maybe the other person doesn't have much ambition in the first place.

He just needs to feel comfortable with it.

"senior."

Situ Qionghua said:

"The people on the island call themselves the Yishan Bandits, a group of robbery cultivators, but the juniors suspect that behind them are the Yun family in Huangcheng. The Yun family has always been at odds with our Situ family."

"Half a month ago, Yishan bandits intercepted and killed a team heading to Fangshi. The most powerful person among those who took action was Lianqi Perfection."

Refining Qi is complete?

"knew."

Zizhen nodded and walked out slowly.

Zhou Yi did not follow. He always gave people the impression that he was not good at fighting. Naturally, he would not take action if he could do it.

"Uh-huh!"

Arriving above the island, Zizhen flicked his long sleeves, and a strange black flag appeared out of thin air, with thick black smoke pouring out of it.

"Huh?"

Wang Tian looked surprised and confused:

"That seems to be... the ghost flag in the hands of the boss of the Qi family?"

"Yeah." Zhou Yi nodded:

"A few days ago, Madam met the boss of the Qi family. He deserved this fate, and the Ghost Flag also fell into Madam's hands."

"The boss of the Qi family is a monk in the middle stage of Taoism." Wang Tian's eyes widened and he exclaimed:

"Senior Zizhen is really amazing. He is easy to defeat but difficult to kill at the same level, especially with the cautious personality of the Qi family boss."

Zhou Yi smiled and said nothing.

really.

If he dealt with the Qi family boss alone, he would only be able to repel or injure him, and it would be almost impossible to keep him alive.

But he was only in the early stage of Daoji, and he was actually even more amazing.

Situ Qiong's face was filled with excitement. It seemed that Zizhen was powerful, far more excited than she was.

at the same time.

The Yishan bandits on the island below also noticed something strange. The Hunyuan Water Formation was driven with all its strength, and a hazy yellow light expanded from scratch.

The black smoke in the sky inspired by the Haunted Soul Flag collided with it at this moment.

"boom!"

The roar was like coming from the depths of the sea of ​​consciousness, making people's souls shake and their vision blurred. Situ Qionghua could hardly see anything.

"Well..." Wang Tian's beautiful eyes flashed:

"This Yinhun Banner seems to also contain a formation."

"More than one kind." Zhou Yi said:

"The Yin Soul Banner is a rare treasure that can restrain souls, gather Yin, and confuse gods. It can integrate many formations into it seamlessly. It is worth studying."

"Um?"

"There are actually Daoji monks?"

But while he was speaking, he saw that the island below was about to be completely enveloped by the Yin Qi released by the Yinhun Banner, and a stream of light flew out from it.

The breath is impressively in the Daoji realm.

However, the opponent obviously had no intention of fighting with these people. After getting out of the Yin Qi envelope, he flickered and fled into the distance.

Zizhen watched the opponent go away, moved her fingers, and finally did not choose to pursue him.

"fall!"

Pressing lightly with his bare hand, the Yinhun flag trembled crazily, and the resentful ghosts swooped down on the formation below, and the aura of the formation shattered.

"Bind!"

After pinching and chanting the incantation, chains of ghosts emerged from the black smoke and wrapped around the people on the island, causing screams to burst out all of a sudden.

Facing a middle-stage Taoist monk, the resistance from the Qi Refining realm was almost useless, and he was all bound and captured within a short time.

With a flick of his hand, more than a hundred people were thrown into the water like dumplings.

"Take it back!"

"yes."

Situ Qionghua responded with her hand, and with a wave of her hand, the disciples and disciples of the Situ family came forward one after another, pulled a group of people into the net and escorted them into the cabin.

"Pa bang..."

Wang Tian lightly clapped his hands and said:

"Senior's actions are really extraordinary. These clowns were able to catch them. It's all thanks to meeting senior. Otherwise, how would they survive?"

With the means of the person in front of me, let alone these people on the island, if they were willing, the Daoji monk just now would not be able to escape.

In Wang Tian's opinion, it was a sign of mercy and kindness.

Zi Zhen smiled and said nothing.

In the early years, her hands were stained with human blood, and countless people died because of her, so she had a heart of stone.

but……

Glancing at Zhou Yi who was approaching, she smiled softly.

Time is indeed the greatest existence in the world, it can change everything that we thought would not change.

After decades of being together with Zhou Yi, the two of them relied on each other and relied on each other. They didn't have to worry about danger, and the murderous intention in their hearts gradually faded away.

This is great!

"Let's go back."

Zhou Yi spoke:

"Just leave it to someone else."

"Um."

Zi Zhen nodded.

Unnamed Island.

In addition to the two people's residence on the island, there is also a pool with clear water and several lotus flowers, which are in bloom.

Today, Zizhen put on a pure white robe, her hair was unbound and fluttering in the wind, and she lowered her head to look at her face reflected in the water.

Her facial features are exquisite, her appearance is extraordinary, and her unique practice means that even if she is over a hundred years old, she still looks like she has been eighteen years old.

On the contrary, it was Zhou Yi.

He originally had an ordinary appearance, but later he practiced the Five Poisons and Eight Evils, and his appearance could even be considered ugly, or at best, unremarkable.

Fortunately, he has a good temperament and his eyes are leisurely and hard to predict.

The two of them stood side by side, not looking out of place at all.

"A hundred years old!"

Zizhen reached out and touched her cheek, and the reflection on the water rippled, covering the complex eyes that flashed:

"There are very few barbarians who are over fifty years old. Even people outside the mountains say they are seventy years old. It is rare to be a hundred years old."

"Unknowingly, I have..."

"So old!"

"If you are considered old, I believe no one would want to grow old." Zhou Yi turned sideways, turned his palm over, and a flower appeared in his palm:

"Suo Xin Tan, a gift for your 100th birthday."

The flowers are not big, only about the size of a fist. There are red and white petals inside, which look like two kinds of flowers mixed together.

This flower is called Suoxintan, and it is a rare but not very useful elixir.

Because the two roots of this flower grow into one body and are indistinguishable from each other, it is called the Suo Xin Tan, and is usually given to loved ones.

Zizhen smiled and reached out to take it:

"You are interested."

"It took some time." Zhou Yi said with a smile:

"Actually, there is one more thing. I believe you will be happier if you know it."

"Really?" Zizhen lowered her head and fiddled with the petals, and asked casually:

"What's up?"

"The Situ family has found the person you are looking for. The Jade Faced Buddha is unknown." Zhou Yi looked straight and said:

"But now he has changed his title and is called Laughing Maitreya. No one knows his name, and he has the cultivation level of the late Daoji."

"It's not easy to take him down."

"Smiling Maitreya, late stage of Daoji." Zizhen raised his head, his eyes revealing thoughts:

"I should not be weaker than him, and with you helping me, I had the upper hand. But if I want to kill him, I have to introduce a formation."

"yes."

Zhou Yi thought so too.

A few years ago, Zizhen successfully advanced to the late stage of Daoji without encountering any hurdles. After completing the accumulation, she naturally advanced.

As for Zhou Yi...

The cultivation level has increased a lot, but there is still a long way to go before the middle stage of Daoji. However, the Lihuo Demon Ape Transformation has reached the mastery level.

Ordinary Daoji is definitely no match for him in the mid-term.

In addition, the Fire Cloud Escape Technique has broken through the limits, and he has obtained a top forbidden technique from the Situ family in exchange for his years of hard work - Burning Blood Escape!

There are many similar methods that burn energy and blood to increase escape speed, but there are very few that reach the forbidden method and can use the magic power of the golden elixir.

Perform this method,

In a short period of time, Zhou Yi's speed was even faster than Zizhen, who was armed with the cloak magic weapon.

It's a pity that the skills acquired from the Situ family require an oath and cannot be taught to a second person, not even his wife and children.

"Laugh at Maitreya."

Zizhen pondered for a moment and asked:

"Where is he now?"

"It's nearby." Zhou Yi said:

"This is one of the people who participated in the attack on the Situ family."

"What a coincidence." Zi Zhen squinted her eyes, a murderous intent appearing in her beautiful eyes.

"correct."

Zhou Yi shook his sleeves and said again:

"Situ Xuan is gone, you know, right?"

"Even you, a busy man, already know this, how could I not know about it?" Zizhen rolled his eyes and said:

"Not only Situ Xuan, but also Situ Qionghua, who recently advanced to Daoji. She also returned to Huangcheng's family with her."

"Those who left are all young people with good talents."

"Yes!" Zhou Yi touched his chin:

"There are rumors now that the Situ family plans to abandon Sun Peak Moon Island and use this place as bait to attract the attention of hostile forces."

"The real elites of the family have all secretly fled to other places."

"..." Zi Zhen pursed her lips:

"There is indeed such a statement, but Situ Tianyun is still there, and more and more members of my family are coming, so it may not be true."

"Situ Tianyun has a short life span. Even if he leaves, he won't live long." Zhou Yi said:

"As for the people who come..."

"Without enough people, how can we attract the enemy's attention? Wang Tian actually said that he wants to leave here with the next group."

"Stupid." Zi Zhen snorted coldly:

"With her strength, now that she has left Rifengyue Island without the protection of the Qimen Formation, as long as she encounters an enemy, she will most likely not be able to escape."

"If you stay, you can still survive."

"Where are you?" Zhou Yi asked:

"What are you going to do?"

"I..." Zizhen looked up and said:

"Of course I listen to you, husband. If you feel that this place is dangerous, we can leave the matter of laughing at Maitreya until we have a chance."

"Ha..." Zhou Yi pursed his lips:

"Madam is really getting better and better at talking."

"Hehe..." Zizhen said with a smile:

"Actually, receiving your gift makes me happier than knowing the whereabouts of Xiao Maitreya."

"Why!"

Zhou Yi sighed:

"If you say so, Xiao Maitreya must be solved no matter what. Otherwise, how can he be worthy of Madam's sincerity?"
