Celestial being

Not long after, Yuan Ming and Xi Ying discovered a small island hidden at the bottom of the lake in the middle of the lake.

There is a layer of water-proof barrier surrounding the island, with green trees and a simple courtyard built in the middle.

Yuan Ming and the others easily passed through the restriction and arrived outside the small courtyard.

I saw that the door of the small courtyard was tightly closed, and the copper nails on it were all engraved with secret magic symbols, which were connected with each other to form a forbidden magic circle.

Yuan Ming walked around the courtyard wall and found that many wall tiles were also engraved with some kind of runes, and he couldn't help but frown.

"How is it? Can it be broken open?" Yuan Ming asked.

"It's not difficult to break open, but it's not easy to prevent the people inside from noticing. The runes on the walls and doors of this house are closely connected with the people who set up the array. Let alone breaking it, even if you touch it, you will probably be destroyed. He is alert." Xiying said thoughtfully.

"Then let me do it." Yuan Ming thought for a while and said.

After saying that, he flipped his wrist and took out the Heaven Stealing Cauldron and a stick of black incense.

The purpose of coming here is to find out whether Xing Rong has evil thoughts about Tuya. Without evidence, he will not use strong methods. This black incense possession is the safest way.

Yuan Ming quickly lit the black incense and began to visualize Xing Rong's appearance in his mind.

After a while, he successfully possessed Xing Rong.

However, the black incense he used was still a semi-finished product that he had made before, and could not control Xing Rong's actions.

When Yuan Ming was able to see things around him clearly, he found that he was in a secret room.

There are also magic circles on the walls and floor of the secret room for protection.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, are you being too careful? This is in the secret room of your Xiao Mansion, and you are worried that the news will be leaked?" At this time, a voice sounded, and it was Xing Rong who spoke.

"Be careful with the Ten Thousand Years Ship. Our Red Lotus Island is no bigger than your Senluo Sect family. Once Pansi Island finds out about our plan, you guys may not be in serious trouble, but we can't withstand Pansi Island's wrath. "The ancestor of the Xiao family spoke with an old voice.

"What are you afraid of? As long as this thing is done, Pansi Island will have nothing to fear. With our Senluo sect as an ally, no one will dare to mess with your Honglian Island in the future." Xing Rong smiled. He smiled and said nonchalantly.

"I hope everything goes as smoothly as you said." The ancestor of the Xiao family said slowly and noncommittally.

"It all depends on you, Fellow Daoist Xiao." Xing Rong said with a smile.

"Don't worry, the ban in Zhuhaifang City was originally made by me. After discussing this matter with you, I made changes to the magic circle there. There will be no problem." The ancestor of the Xiao family glanced at Xing Rong, said.

"That's good. This time we are discussing with Pansi Island the ownership of the newly emerged spiritual vein. We chose the location in Zhuhaifang City because we want to take advantage of the restricted geographical location of Zhuhaifang City. Pansi Island will definitely be there by then. You're going to suffer a big loss." Xing Rong's laughter gradually became wanton.

Yuan Ming listened and didn't care much. He was not surprised by anything that happened in the current chaos in southern Xinjiang, and he didn't want to get involved in anything.

"I can certainly do what I promised you, so what do you think of what you promised me?" the ancestor of the Xiao family suddenly asked.

"People have already arrived at your door, and the magic of grafting flowers and trees has been prepared. I will give it to you as soon as it is completed. What are you worried about?" Xing Rong said with some dissatisfaction.

"I have one more thing to confirm with you. Have you figured out how to settle the girl's master? Don't let her come to you later. I can't explain it." The ancestor of the Xiao family still hesitated.

"She was forced to go into seclusion by the leader, and she couldn't come out for a while. After she comes out, we will blame Pansi Island for the girl's death, saying that during the melee in Zhuhaifang City, this The girl was accidentally involved and lost her life. When the time comes and there is no evidence, the most she can do is get angry and she won't be able to do anything to anyone." Xing Rong was prepared and said with a smile.

"Okay, then there will be no worries." Hearing this, the ancestor of the Xiao family also nodded with satisfaction.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, speaking of it, it is your Xiao family who has benefited the most this time. After getting rid of Pansi Island, your Honglian Island's momentum will only be stronger, and if you have obtained our method of transplanting flowers and grafting trees, you can successfully transplant that It’s just around the corner for my girl’s Taoist spirit bones to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.” Xing Rong clicked his tongue.

Hearing this, Yuan Ming was suddenly shocked.

This ancestor of the Xiao family actually planned to seize Tuya's Taoist spirit bone?

"It's not that easy. The Nine Palaces Formation Heart Technique that I practice is a method of entering the Tao through formations. It is not easy to improve one's cultivation. With this spiritual bone pattern, it only increases the chance of winning by a few percent." The ancestor of the Xiao family said slowly.

Hearing this, Yuan Ming was filled with rage and quickly exited the state of possession.

"How's it going? What did you find?" Seeing Yuan Ming wake up, Xiying asked quickly.

Yuan Ming's face turned pale as he told Xiying all the news he had just heard.

"The great method of transplanting flowers and grafting trees... isn't that the secret technique of the Huajian sect that is not passed on? I thought it had been lost, but I didn't expect that the Senluo sect also inherited it. These two guys are really vicious. Once they transplant the Taoist spirit bone , that girl Tuya will only die." Xiying said with some surprise after hearing this.

"I don't care what conspiracies they have, but if they dare to target Tuya, that's the way to die." Yuan Ming, the only flesh and blood of his old friend, faced a life-or-death crisis, and Yuan Ming immediately had murderous thoughts.

"I'll break the formation and fight quickly." Xiying immediately expressed her support without any hesitation.

After saying that, she turned her wrist and a golden compass appeared in her palm.

"This is a chaotic star disk. It can seal off an area, and it can also temporarily disrupt the spatial orientation of an area, causing the orientation of the originally arranged magic circle to be confused. The eyes of the array are reversed, making the magic circle temporarily ineffective. After a while, I messed up the direction. Open this barrier and we will take action immediately." Xiying warned.

"Okay." Yuan Ming nodded.

The next moment, Xiying raised his hand and threw it, and the golden compass flew high and hung above the small courtyard.

Immediately afterwards, a piece of golden light lit up from the compass, instantly forming a huge golden compass shadow, covering the entire small courtyard.

Xiying raised a palm and twisted it towards the compass void.

The pointer in the center of the compass Tianchi immediately started to rotate, and the direction on the compass also changed accordingly.

Yuan Ming suddenly felt a disturbance in the spiritual energy of the world around him. The door of the small courtyard in front of him and the runes on the wall immediately dimmed, as if they had lost their spiritual nourishment.

"Let's go." Xiying shouted.

The two of them immediately flashed and entered the courtyard.

The ancestor of the Xiao family in the secret room suddenly frowned, as if he noticed something was wrong, but before he could investigate carefully, the strange feeling disappeared immediately.

"What's wrong?" Xing Rong noticed something strange about him and asked quickly.

The ancestor of the Xiao family hesitated for a moment and shook his head.

In the yard, Yuan Ming and Xi Ying once again used the hidden lamp to obscure their presence.

The two of them rushed towards the secret room.

When they just stepped into the middle hall, a red light suddenly lit up on the ground, and a fiery red magic circle rose from the ground, instantly covering the two of them in the center.

"No, there is no magic circle set up here?" Xiying was surprised for a while.

At this time, a sound of footsteps came from the back of the main room.

"Who is trespassing in my Xiao family's ancestral temple?" A sharp shout rang out. The ancestor of the Xiao family pinched his fingers with one hand and pressed his wrist with the other hand, and walked out from the back of the main room.

"You can form a formation easily without the help of magic weapons. Your practice in the formation method is really profound." Seeing this, Xiying did not panic at all, but praised him.

"You are not just an ordinary person who managed to get all the way here quietly." The ancestor of the Xiao family sneered.

"There is another one, why is he hiding so secretly?" Yuan Ming scolded.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, I told you there's no need to hide it. If you don't listen, you'll make people laugh." Xing Rong walked out with a smile.

The ancestor of the Xiao family looked unhappy and asked in a deep voice: "Are you from Pansi Island?"

Yuan Ming and Xi Ying looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.

"It seems so, then I won't be able to keep you." Seeing this, the ancestor of the Xiao family said to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, the magic formula in his hand changed immediately, and the magic circle covering Yuan Ming and Xi Ying suddenly glowed with red light. Eight fire pythons jumped out from around the magic circle, opening their mouths and spitting out rolling flames towards the two people.

The blazing flames rushed towards the center, collided together, and suddenly the flames rose up to a height of ten feet and went straight to the roof.

However, with another wave of Xiying's wrist, the spatial orientation of this small courtyard was suddenly messed up.

The eight fire pythons that rushed straight into the center suddenly turned around randomly, spitting out blazing flames in different directions.

Xing Rong was almost hit by the flames. He retreated hastily and couldn't help but cursed: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, what are you doing?"

It was also the first time for the ancestor of the Xiao family to encounter this situation, and he was a little confused for a while.

But before he could take action, streaks of extremely sharp sword light emerged from his side.

The ancestor of the Xiao family was horrified when he saw a gorgeous sword formation floating in the void, with a flying sword hanging in the air, emitting extremely powerful sword energy.

When Xing Rong saw this, he was also shocked. He immediately put away his contempt, raised his hand and took out a green cattail leaf fan.

But before they could take action, the Yinkong tree demon had already walked out from behind the sword formation, shook the wine gourd in his hand, and burped wine at the two of them with an ugly look on his face.

He is not the old ghost of Sanjue. Although he inherited his sword formation and wine gourd, he did not inherit his alcoholic smell. He does not like drinking, and his ability to use these two treasures is far inferior to Sanjue. .

However, it was enough to deal with the two guys in front of me.

"belch……"

Accompanied by a loud burping sound, a layer of pink wine smell accompanied by a strong aroma of wine swept towards the two people.
