Celestial being

"Miss, the eldest young master's friend Mr. Luo Tang is here again." The maid's voice came from outside the house.

"Tell him to get lost." Xiying's disgust rose and she was not polite at all.

"Miss, that's the eldest young master's friend. That's not a good idea. The eldest young master would like to invite you to meet him when you have time." The maid hesitated for a moment and whispered.

Xiying thought for a while and said, "Then you can meet him on my behalf. Isn't that how it plays out in the play? In the end, the pretty maid gets married successfully. The young lady disguises herself as a man and becomes the top pick."

Hearing this, Yuan Ming couldn't help laughing, and laughed silently inside Guoguo's body, causing Guoguo's furry body to tremble slightly.

"But I'm so ugly, I don't even look like you." The maid murmured.

"Then don't you know how to cover your face? Go quickly and don't bother me. If you succeed, I will reward you with a magic weapon." Xiying said.

"Miss, are you serious? Then I'll go." The maid smiled and had no choice but to turn away.

After sending the maid away, Xiying put down her pen, held Guoguo's armpits with her hands, and picked her up.

It's a familiar action again, a familiar perspective.

Yuan Ming turned his head with some embarrassment, only to see that the table was densely covered with manuscript papers.

Those papers were all painted with complicated and dense lines, which looked like they were drawing some kind of magic circle. Xiying continued to study the formation with all his concentration.

Time passed slowly, and it felt like Guoguo was about to fall asleep. Suddenly, two plump lips appeared on Guoguo's head, and then Xiying's voice sounded: "The big teleportation array is too complicated, take a rest. Guoguo, what do you mean? Should I use the messenger charm?"

Before Yuan Ming had time to feel it carefully, his vision was blurred, and the possession ended.

He woke up from the bed with some unfinished thoughts, and couldn't help but think in his mind: "Is the Grand Teleportation Array a magic circle that can teleport remotely? Or can it teleport multiple people at once?"

He didn't know much about teleportation circles, so he didn't think much about it, took out the elixir, drank it, and continued practicing.

Use a messenger? Who to look for? Looking for me? Or a member of Xiying’s family?

…

Another six days passed in the blink of an eye.

Yuan Ming paced in the courtyard, frowning slightly.

According to the time Gu Qiuming said before, the Winged Bird egg was almost ready to hatch. Not only did Gu Qiuming not come over once, he didn't even send anyone to send a message. Something seemed wrong.

It's a pity that it will take one day before the next possession, otherwise he would just burn incense and possess it to see the situation.

"Senior Ha Gong, this is your meal today." A fair-skinned young man came in from outside, holding a tray with an exquisite snack, a plate of spiritual fruits, and a cup of spiritual tea on it.

Monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage already have very little food needs, and this is enough to sustain them for a day.

Yuan Ming looked at the person who came. This fair young man's name was Xu Chuan. He was a Qi Refining period disciple of the Zhenling Sect with a foreign surname. He was responsible for delivering food to him these days.

"Fellow Taoist Xu, is there any news about the ancient Taoist friends in the past two days?" Yuan Ming asked, secretly casting the illusion of ecstasy.

"No." Xu Chuan shook his head and said.

"Where is the incubation room?" Yuan Ming continued to ask.

"Ten miles southwest, Wangyou Valley..." Xu Chuan continued.

Yuan Ming asked about the details there again, and waved his hand without hesitation. Xu Chuan rolled his eyes and fell asleep with confusion.

Yuan Ming quickly took off the man's coat, exchanged it with his, then placed him on the bed in the bedroom, pretending to be asleep, and then used the four-way sealing talisman to create a barrier before stopping.

Yuan Ming then took out a translucent white mask and put it on. It was the Qianji Mask. He recalled Xu Chuan's face in his mind.

The Qianji mask slowly squirmed, and in a few breaths it transformed into Xu Chuan's appearance, which was lifelike and without any flaws.

Yuan Ming used his spiritual consciousness to explore, but found no clues, and was very satisfied.

"The Qianji Mask is indeed extraordinary, but it's a pity that it can only be used three times." He felt a little painful in his heart.

However, in order to prevent the monks below the level of Dan Ji from discovering the clues, they still had to use this treasure. As for the monks above the level of Dan Jie, he did not think that they would be bored enough to use their spiritual consciousness to scan a Qi Refining Stage disciple.

After Yuan Ming turned around and went out, he paused before taking a few steps.

During this period of time, in addition to practicing the Nine Yuan Jue, he also worked hard to practice the Ming Yue Jue. His soul became stronger and his senses became sharper. The moment he went out, someone seemed to look at him, and then quickly looked away. Continue to stare at the courtyard.

"It seems like someone is staring at me?" A thought passed through Yuan Ming's mind, but he continued to move forward without stopping.

After a while, Yuan Ming followed the route pointed by Xu Chuan and came to a valley.

This place is full of spiritual energy, surrounded by lush trees and lush grass, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant everywhere, making it feel like a paradise.

Yuan Ming didn't pay attention to the beautiful scenery, and soon came to the deeper part of the valley, where a series of buildings appeared in front.

He continued to move forward, but he walked extremely carefully. There were many severe restrictions placed around the building in front of him, and the consequences of touching any one of them would be unpredictable.

"The Valley of Forgetfulness is an important place. No one is allowed to enter. Please tell me whoever is coming." A voice came from behind the flowers in front.

"My disciple is Xu Chuan from the Foreign Affairs Pavilion. I handled an important matter for senior brother Gu Qiuming a few days ago. Today I sent a special message. I heard that he was in the incubation room, so I came over and asked senior brother to pass it on for me." Yuan Ming took out a spiritual stone, sent it to the flowers, and said in Xu Chuan's voice.

Qianji Mask not only changes the appearance, but also affects the throat muscles and changes the voice.

"Gu Qiuming? He seems to have left and is not in the valley now." This man got the benefit and his attitude was much kinder, he said.

"I heard that he was hatching a bird egg in the incubation room, and I asked my senior brother to go in and check it out for me." Yuan Ming was secretly surprised, and took out another spiritual stone and handed it over.

"Okay, you wait here." The man said after hesitating.

A gray shadow swept out from behind the flowers and disappeared into the buildings in front.

After a moment, the gray figure flew back.

"Gu Qiu Ming is indeed not in the valley. He left three days ago. The egg was also taken away by him. It is said that he will find another place to hatch it." A gloomy voice said.

Yuan Ming was a little frightened and angry when he heard this. Could it be that Gu Qiuming wanted to covet his eggs?

Judging from the previous interactions between the two, Gu Qiuming is not such an untrustworthy villain.

In other words, is it hatched using the so-called "magic circle"?

He left without asking any more questions and returned to his previous residence.

He pulled off the Qianji mask, first changed back into their clothes, and then lifted the illusion spell cast by Xu Chuan.

Xu Chuan was not aware of what had just happened. He only felt that his stay this time was a bit long, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Yuan Ming did not go out or use other methods, but went to the inner room to close his eyes and rest.

The next day, Yuan Ming cast a soundproof shield around the house and sealed everything with silver tokens. Then he lit a black incense stick and possessed Gu Qiu Ming.

Yuan Ming's vision went dark, and when he recovered, he was really shocked.

Although he successfully possessed Gu Qiuming, he appeared in a dark and humid place.

At this time, Gu Qiuming's hair was messy, his hands and feet were locked with a magical weapon, and he was actually imprisoned.

The space in front is quite large. There is a hexagonal stone platform on the ground, which is engraved with array patterns to form a magic circle. A straight and tall purple wooden pillar stood in the formation. It looked like an unusual piece of wood, with some patterns on the surface.

In the center of the array is the winged bird egg, and the surface of the winged bird egg flashes with purple lightning.

The purple wooden pillars went straight up and penetrated the stone wall at the top of the dungeon, leading to nowhere. As if attracted by some invisible force, the spiritual energy was absorbed into the blood egg one after another, and the surface of the blood egg began to have faint lines that were bright and dark.

A young man wearing a brocade robe stood next to the stone platform, taking out pieces of spiritual stones from the storage bag and replacing them in the magic circle.

Yuan Ming had met this person before. Gu Qiuming took him to visit his sixth uncle, and he had a chance encounter with this person.

"Gu Qiulong, it's too late for you to stop now! Since the founding of our sect, Zhenling Sect, when have we ever taken anything from our guests? If this matter spreads, the hundreds of years of reputation of Zhenling Sect will be destroyed!" Gu Qiuming shouted in a deep voice.

His magic power seemed to be sealed and he couldn't break free at all.

"Don't worry, I never do things sloppily. I have sent people to keep an eye on that boy. After the egg of the winged bird hatches successfully, he will disappear silently from this world without even a trace. I will stay." Gu Qiulong said without turning his head, his tone was extremely indifferent.

"What! You still want to kill people and silence them? Although Ha Gong's cultivation level is not high, his origin is mysterious. Don't bring trouble to the sect!" Gu Qiuming shouted with a change of expression.

"Don't worry about it." Gu Qiulong sneered, his disdain evident in his words.

He would continue to insert pieces of spiritual stones into the magic circle. The large magic circle on the stone platform was suddenly activated, buzzing, and the purple wooden pillars also glowed with white light.

"Haha, third cousin has a good vision. Using this Guiyuan Thunder Array to hatch winged bird eggs is really wonderful. It's hard for you to do this analysis and proof." Gu Qiulong looked at everything that happened on the blood egg. A smile flashed in his eyes and he said to Gu Qiu Ming.

"Bah! If you take away the incubation spirit array without authorization, Elder Lin in the incubation room will find out sooner or later. It depends on how you end up." Gu Qiuming let out a loud sigh.

"Pedantry! The winged bird has the ability to summon thunder and lightning. With this spiritual beast, our sect will surely enter the ranks of the top ten sects of the Jin Dynasty in a few decades. I am the biggest contributor!" Gu Qiulong was not angry. Instead, he was triumphant.

"Shameless act!" Gu Qiuming couldn't help but curse.

"Shameless? The world of immortality is a place where the weak prey on the strong. As long as you can get tangible benefits, the means are not important at all. You just don't understand this, so you are still lingering in the Qi Refining stage. Who can you blame?" Gu Qiulong said disdainfully. .

Gu Qiuming closed his eyes and seemed not to want to look at the other person.

Gu Qiulong also ignored the other party and concentrated on controlling the stone array.

However, not long after, the look on his face changed.

The magic circle that was originally humming suddenly became sluggish. On the other hand, the lines on the surface of the blood egg were still faintly flickering.

Gu Qiulong glanced at the many spiritual stones around him that had almost exhausted their spiritual energy, gritted his teeth, and took out a large number of spiritual stones from the storage bag, replaced the spiritual stones embedded in the magic circle, and fired several magic spells.

After replenishing the spiritual stones, the magic circle started to operate again. As the spiritual energy continued to penetrate into the blood eggs, the lines on the surface of the eggshell became more and more obvious.

However, this situation only lasted for a few breaths before it took a turn for the worse again, and the magic circle once again showed a tendency to stagnate.
