Exorcism

Grandmaster Dai Zhen was sitting on the grass beside the forest, with a dozen disciples kneeling in front of him.

"Taoist priests can see further than ordinary people, which is a good thing and a bad thing. Seeing further can make preparations in advance and take a greater advantage when things happen, but it is also easy to lose confidence - since everything is doomed, Why resist, why hesitate? You believe in me, and I believe in the Patriarch. I think no one can change the future. The Patriarch will eventually destroy everything and create a new world among the ruins."

"I surrendered without hesitation, even a little proud, because not all Taoist priests can be appreciated by the ancestors. I became an accomplice, violated my previous oath, slaughtered innocent mortals, and seized even more innocent babies. I wanted to use them Refining the Living Pill has killed many Taoist priests, and even the demon clan’s methods are not so cruel.”

One disciple couldn't help but said: "You are not alone..."

Dai Zhen smiled and shook his head, "I am not forced to do these things. The other two grandmasters and I do it voluntarily. This is the scary thing about 'vision'. We run towards the set goal, thinking that what is under our feet is The only way."

Dai Zhen put away his smile and his expression became gloomy, "What have we become? Where are the Taoist priests? Where is the Taoist fire? We are so 'far-sighted' that we don't distinguish between right and wrong, beauty and ugliness, even My awakening also depends on 'foresight'. Taoist priest Qin Lingshuang may never be the opponent of the ancestor, but her existence means that there are still accidents and coincidences in the world, which means that the ancestor does not cover the sky with one hand, and there are things happening that he cannot control. Therefore, even if there is only a slight possibility that the Patriarch will fail, it means that I have led you to a wrong path before. This path is easier, but it is a big mistake. "

The disciples were silent. They had never seen a master who had submitted to the Rimang realm be so self-reproaching.

"That's it. When I chose to betray my ancestor, I still didn't hesitate. I became a villain." Dai Zhen was silent for a while. "I owe you an explanation. This is my explanation. I will not forgive myself." , and neither will the Patriarch. He will send people to punish me for my betrayal, and will also eliminate the weak possibility that has just appeared. Taoist Qin will not be able to escape... Hehe, I am making the old mistake again, always thinking that I can see the future.

Dai Zhen put his hands on the ground like an ordinary person and stood up slowly, "Leave and do what you want to do. Don't trust any high-level Taoist priests anymore. That is no longer an advantage, but a blind obedience. Have a strong attitude toward this world." Have some hope, its future is not destined, and neither is your future. Leave Nanhailin immediately."

The disciples also stood up, but no one moved. The master's words made them uneasy. They didn't particularly understand, but they knew that once they left Nanhai Forest, they would be just like those homeless Taoist priests, pitiful and panic-stricken like bereft dogs. , he may die at the hands of casual cultivators or monsters at any time.

"Idiot, what are you doing here? Are you waiting to die?" Dai Zhen lost his temper and summoned the magic sword and the bronze seal. "I don't need your help, and you can't help me. Just go further, you are a coward." Hide, find a way to defeat the Patriarch if you're brave, join him if you're shameless, it's that simple, do you still want me to teach you?"

The disciples were scared and flew away one by one. Dai Zhen put away his angry face, still holding the sword and seal in his hand, chanting sutras in a low voice to calm himself down, and then changed to another sutra to inspire more. Mana and fighting spirit.

The founder's people didn't come, and a disciple flew back. Dai Zhen was furious, and just as he was about to say something, the disciple fell far away and gave him the Taoist gift, "I have made a choice and voluntarily stayed with him. Grandmaster fights the enemy side by side. If you say the future is not determined, then we may not die here. "

"Hey." Dai Zhen sneered, "Okay, you stay."

The disciple flew over, stood beside the master, and summoned his own magic weapon.

"How did Taoist priests face death in the past?" Dai Zhen asked.

"Huh?" The disciple didn't understand.

"I will soon forget all my former orthodoxy."

Dai Zhen lived several hundred years longer than his disciple, and his realm was much higher. Of course he would not forget the past. The disciple was stunned for a while and replied: "The Taoist priests in the past...were ready to face death at any time." , From the moment the inner elixir was formed, the Taoist priest has made up his mind to be calm, not only to face death calmly, but also to face everything calmly. "

"Well, you said it very well. Even if the Taoist priests in the past did not have the heart of a Taoist priest, even if they were only in the realm of inhalation, they were more determined than the current Taoist priests of Fu Rimang. It was a beautiful era, and the Taoist priests who died at that time All very lucky.”

The disciple thought for a while, "Everyone was like this at that time, so it was easier to face it calmly. It is more difficult to do this now, but... it is more real. It is not affected by other Taoist priests. It is all your own choice."

Dai Zhen turned around and looked at his disciple in surprise, "It's a pity that you die here with me... No, why do I always say death? The future is the future. As long as it doesn't happen, there is a possibility of change. That's right, we won't If you die, you will fight all the way to the Patriarch and ask him...don't ask anything, just kill him."

A very long bolt of lightning flashed across the distant sky, but no thunder came.

"I can't wait. Which Taoist priest will the Patriarch send to punish me as a traitor? It should be a Grand Master." Dai Zhen sent out seven rays of light one after another and went to fight from a distance, "What's your name?"

"Yang Jiu, correct Jiu."

"Strange name, a descendant of the Taoist Yang family?"

"No, I am from Dongjie country."

"How many years have you been a disciple of Wandishan?"

"One hundred and forty-eight years." Yang Jiu's spell couldn't be sent too far, so he cast a restraint next to the grandmaster. After about a while, he became more courageous and asked, "Won't Taoist Qin join the battle?"

"She has her own opinions." Dai Zhen felt that she should no longer be perfunctory at this time, and added: "Taoist Qin is treating those Nascent Souls. When she feels it is necessary, she will come out to join the battle, but not to save us, but to save us." Buy her time."

The power of these restrictions was not strong. Dai Zhen did not stop Yang Jiu and summoned a large number of magic weapons to strengthen his restrictions.

The lightnings in the distance came one after another, getting closer and closer. Dai Zhen sneered, "The Patriarch really has a wide range of opportunities, and even the giant monster has attracted him."

"Tiger?"

"That's not lightning, it's a giant monster called Thousand-legged King. It's said to be a centipede monster. I had a fight with him three hundred years ago. He hasn't appeared for many years. I thought he was dead, but it turns out he was hiding to practice. Alas, my opponent is not even a grandmaster."

Yang Jiu nodded. It was unusual for him to learn about past events from the mouth of a grandmaster. "It's just right, slaying demons and demons. No matter whether this battle is won or lost, we are all fulfilling the duties of Taoist priests."

Dai Zhen glanced at Yang Jiu again, "Boy, you are more suitable to be a grandmaster than me."

Yang Jiu's face turned red, "Master, please forgive me, I just said it casually."

"Don't say it casually, because you are right." Dai Zhen said seriously, and with a wave of the magic sword in his hand, he shot out seven groups of light again.

The Thousand Foot King has been killed within ten miles, and Yang Jiu stopped talking.

It was a huge centipede with red light all over its body. The red light in front and back was nearly a thousand feet long, and it was hundreds of feet long. Its densely packed limbs paddled like oars, and on its back stood a demon army.

"Thousand-legged King, have you ever been boiled in water? How did you become like this?"

The giant centipede stopped in the air, opened its mouth and swallowed seven balls of light, and said in a low and vague voice: "Hongshan Grandmaster Dai Zhen, long time no see, there are many things you can't think of."

"It's nothing unexpected. You have comprehended some kind of sorcery, which can unite the power of all demons into one. The ancestor took a fancy to it and helped you perfect the sorcery. You worked for him. When I heard that Dai was going to be punished, you took the initiative to ask for help. , maybe so?"

"Haha, you are right, but now I am the disciple of the Patriarch, and you are the traitor who was designated by the Patriarch to get rid of. Who is righteous and who is evil?"

"Good and evil don't matter. I can get rid of this giant monster like you, which is my ancestor's reward."

"Stay where you are." Dai Zhen spoke and cast the spell at the same time. After giving the order to his disciples, the people had disappeared. In front of the enemy, he actually used the teleportation technique.

The next moment, Dai Zhen appeared above the Thousand-legged King, flying along his back, dancing with his magic sword, killing a large number of demon soldiers.

Dai Zhen guessed that the power of the Thousand-legged King came from the demon army on his back, so he killed the small demon first and then the big demon. This move was indeed correct. The Thousand-legged King roared loudly, the red light became brighter, and he shook his body violently. Dozens of new heads suddenly appeared, spraying red light from their mouths, surrounding the enemy.

Dai Zhen only used the copper seal to protect himself, and the magic sword was still used to ward off demons. Seeing that he was about to be swallowed up by the red light, he rose into the sky, leading the Thousand-legged King to catch up.

Yang Jiu was shocked. The master's fighting style was obviously suicide. Taoist priests were not good at close combat. Dai Zhen rushed forward to attack the enemy's strengths with his own shortcomings. The only effect was to temporarily distract the Thousand-legged King.

Yang Jiu rose up and wanted to fly over to help. However, he only took a few steps before he was bounced back by an invisible wall and fell into the woods, further away from the Thousand-legged King.

It turns out that Dai Zhen not only blessed his ban, but also set his own ban to prevent his disciples from taking risks with him.

But this move was of little use. Thousand-legged King and his demon army were lured away, but there were more than just these troops attacking Nanhailin. After the red light dissipated, hundreds of attackers were revealed, including casual cultivators and demons. It seemed that there were still There are several true Taoist priests.

Yang Jiu walked out of the woods, holding an iron ruler in one hand and a small copper stove in the other, chanting sutras loudly. He was actually a little scared before. What Dai Zhen said was nothing, but what he did inspired this low-level Taoist priest. The enemy was facing him. Fighting alone, he felt like a Taoist priest again. This was the first time since the Five Elements Tribulation.

"The fire will never be extinguished." Yang Jiu believed that he was qualified to say these four words again.
