Exorcism

Like all flying monsters, Black Phoenix likes to live in a nest in a tree. Her apartment occupies a redwood tree, and the entrance is located on the tree seven to eight feet high.

Black Phoenix landed at the door, turned around and smiled sweetly, "Do you think my place is too simple, or are you worried about a trap?"

Mu Xingqiu stopped more than ten steps away from the tree house. He was not afraid of the tricks of the Black Phoenix, but he felt that the atmosphere around him was not right. There were giant sequoia trees everywhere, with nests on the trees, or directly opening trees. The cave may be built on the branches, but it is too quiet. In such a huge redwood forest, it seems that only one demon, Black Phoenix, lives there.

"I want to see Zuo Liuying first."

"Even if the sky falls - the innocence of Zhan Mo Mountain may collapse - Taoist Zuo will not end his retreat. Don't be anxious, Taoist Master, take a rest here, wait for me to introduce the situation here, Taoist Master will come again It's not too late to make a decision." Hei Huang was still smiling, and all her smiles seemed hazy, perhaps the inevitable result of her blurred face, but also seemed to have a deeper meaning.

Mu Xingqiu signaled Flea to stay outside and not go too far, and carried the little demon Feifei to the entrance, "How many demon clans are there in Zhan Mo Mountain?"

Black Phoenix stood sideways at the door and thought for a while, "Including the thousands of demon clans brought by the Spirit King... about seven thousand, there are still some old and young who cannot go to the battlefield."

Mu Xingqiu put down Feifei and walked into the tree house. His eyes couldn't help but light up. The room was not big, but it was extremely clean. The floor was covered with soft blankets, and brocade curtains hung low around it. There was a small round table in the middle, and teapots floated out. It has a delicate fragrance and has just been brewed. There are exquisite embroidered pillars on both sides. It looks more like a small ornament for people to appreciate rather than a seat for resting.

There is a staircase on the right that leads to the top. This floor is just a reception area.

Feifei stood next to Mu Xingqiu's legs, not even daring to take a breath. His previous home was also a tree hole, and he lived very comfortably, but compared with this place, he was embarrassed to mention that he was also a flying demon.

Black Phoenix bent down and reached out to pinch the loose skin on Feifei's face, "Are you a cicada-winged demon?"

Feifei nodded numbly. 6̳̳

"Why do you look like this?"

Feifei swallowed his saliva and was speechless.

Black Phoenix laughed twice, sat on an embroidered pier, pointed to the other side and said: "Taoist Master, please sit down and taste the new tea from Zhan Mo Mountain. Although this place is in the far north, the tea grown with magic is It has a unique flavor. It may feel a little bitter when you first take it in, but the lingering fragrance lingers afterwards. The demon tribe doesn’t know what to call it, so they call it magic tea.”

Mu Xingqiu did not sit down, looked around a few times, placed Feifei on the embroidered pier, and then said: "I hope to know the situation of Zhan Mo Mountain as soon as possible."

Black Phoenix smiled and nodded, poured a cup of tea for Feifei opposite him, watched him take a sip, and then raised his head and said: "Ten days ago, the Spirit King led the Taoist priests to the north to inquire about Bingkui's movements. Demon King Feizu led his army to station In the northwest, Our Lady of Wanzi and King Yu are leading another group to guard the northeast, and General Zhan Tian has gone to the southeast to gather reinforcements. So far, there is only me and a group of old, weak, and sick people left in Zhan Mo Mountain."

Black Phoenix suddenly turned to Feifei, "Does it taste good? Little Demon."

Feifei nodded hurriedly, and to prove what he said was true, he hurriedly picked up the tea cup and took another sip. He wanted to bang his head on the table in pain, but he didn't dare to show it at all.

"You said before that the priests didn't welcome me. What did you mean?"

"This... it's actually understandable. Dao Zun left the Ice City and went back. He would rather guard a barren land with another group of monsters than come to find everyone. In addition, the matter of the Spirit King..."

"I heard she was injured."

"I was not at the scene." Black Phoenix specifically emphasized that before the Hidden Dragon Fire started, she and most of the demon clan had already left the ice city. "I heard that the Spirit King rushed into the fire to save Dao Zun's inner elixir. As a result, his right arm was burned, but I didn’t notice it because the Spirit King never showed his right hand again.”

Black Phoenix leaned forward slightly, and her face became clearer, especially her eyes. They were a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, as clear as mountain springs, with sunlight shining on the water, and the upper and lower eyelashes were like tall and straight bamboos. There may be few people in the spring, but it does not mean it is deep. Instead, it seems very cheerful.

Feifei, who was sitting opposite, just glanced at these eyes secretly, and a stupid smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

Mu Xingqiu returned the smile and said, "It turns out you are also good at illusions. We can compete with each other."

Black Phoenix's face immediately became blurry again, "How dare I? The demon clan's illusions are not very capable. It can deceive the naked eyes of ordinary mortals, but it cannot deceive the Taoist priest's third eye." She turned to Feifei again, "What's your name? name?"

"Fly...Feifei."

"Three Fei? What a strange name."

"I'm sorry, it's two Feifei, Feifei." Xiaoyao's face suddenly turned red.

Feifei's face turned redder.

"Take another sip, the tea will be more bitter as it gets colder."

Feifei drank all the tea in the cup. He had just seen his mother's appearance from Hei Huang's face. Although it was just an approximation, it made him miss him so much. Suddenly, he felt sleepy. He didn't want to sleep. He didn't dare to sleep, but the harder he tried to hold on, the more obvious his sleepiness became. Before falling off the embroidered pier, he heard the ethereal voice of the Black Phoenix, "Reality is the best illusion. Remember, little demon..."

Feifei fell asleep on the carpet, with a smile on her face.

Black Phoenix raised her hand and wiped it on her face, revealing her true face. Those eyes were real, and her whole appearance was worthy of these eyes, but her smile was gone. "The magic is too scattered, it is difficult to We learned from each other, so I walked among humans very early, learned spells from casual cultivators, and then combined them with sorcery. Slowly, I acquired the appearance I have now, which is used to please humans - in the eyes of Tao Zun. Is this an illusion?"

Mu Xingqiu shook his head. He didn't like this roundabout way of talking, but he still endured it. Black Phoenix was right, her appearance was more convincing than illusion.

"Fake it for a long time and it becomes the truth, and the truth is always more powerful. This is what a casual cultivator told me. He also taught me the art of twin shadows. I have never practiced it to the highest level, which will make me create Create a real clone."

"Yeah." Mu Xingqiu said perfunctorily. He didn't think Black Phoenix would be more powerful after having a clone.

"Hey, why am I talking about this?" Black Phoenix's smile was like the sunlight shining through the branches of flowers. He must have been practicing for a long time, "Zhan Moshan is now divided into two factions, one faction is responsible for fighting, and the other faction is responsible for escaping. Dao Zun plans to support Which faction?"

"I need to know more about the situation and the reasons for the two factions. How did the Taoist priests decide?"

"The Spirit King is leading the battle, and she and the Taoist priests have to fight all the way to Wangshan. Feizu is also the main fighting faction. After all, this is his hometown, but he doesn't want to attack Wangshan. As for the other demon clans... Yu Wang, Zhan Tian and I feel that this battle is of little significance. It’s not that we don’t want to fight, but we think it would be better to start the battle after gathering more strength. There is also the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons. No one knows what she thinks. She seems to be able to do anything. ”

Mu Xingqiu roughly understood, "How much do you know about Bingkui?"

"Not much. I heard that Bingkui was made from tree seeds, and the main messengers behind it were a group of Wangshan Taoist priests. This also depends on Taoist Master's Ice City Battle, otherwise everyone would still believe in the legend that Bingkui is invincible. . We also heard about the Dou Zhuan Xing Shifting Formation and the Seven Pivot Positions. Since the first pivot position has been broken, it seems that there is no need to break the second pivot position. "

"Has Mr. Yishi been here?" Mu Xingqiu immediately guessed who instilled this idea, and only Mr. Yishi could reach Zhan Mo Mountain faster than him.

"There are rumors that Mr. Yishi has been here, but I haven't seen him. It seems that no one has actually seen him. It's all just rumors." Black Phoenix's eyes took up almost half of his face, like an invitation and a rejection. She Unconsciously, he used the demon clan's illusion again.

"You should explain your reasons clearly to Yang Qingyin."

"The Spirit King...is not easy to talk to now." Black Phoenix smiled, trying to dilute the doubts about the Spirit King in his words.

"I'll go see the Taoist priests later." Mu Xingqiu was fed up with guessing with a banshee.

"I think it's best for Taoist Master not to go."

"I think you'd better say what you need to say."

Black Phoenix smiled again, this time it was a forced smile. She had probably been specially trained to smile like this, so it did not affect her beauty at all. "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's really hard to describe. I was originally a flying demon. After a long time, It took time to practice to achieve the appearance I have now. Even Dao Zun said it was not an illusion, but which one is real, the past me or the present me?"

Mu Xingqiu didn't understand why the topic turned here again, "It's all true, just like a person's appearance can change. It's true whether he was young at the beginning or old later."

"Appearance is easy to understand, but what about the heart? For example, if a demon wants to be a human, it also thinks that it is a human in its heart, or vice versa. How does this count?"

"The more I listen, the more confused I become. What's wrong with Yang Qingyin?" If it weren't for respect, Mu Xingqiu would have wanted to use illusion magic to enter Black Phoenix's mind to see what she was thinking.

"Spiritual King... has undergone some changes recently, some strange changes. For example, she laughs more than before, but becomes more and more insistent. No one can refute her orders. She always leads a few people to go out to inquire about the situation. We all feel that It was too risky, but she didn't care."

"Also, the Spirit King always says one thing now - never admit defeat."

Black Phoenix paused for a while, staring at Mu Xingqiu to see if he understood what he meant, and then slowed down his speech, "We all feel that King Ling is imitating someone, Tao Zun, but King Ling is not just imitating So simple, she seems to really think of herself as... Dao Zun. This is the most important reason why we don't support the war with Bingkui. After all, we can't tell whether this is the Spirit King's idea or... She imagined Dao Zun's idea, but she couldn't tell King Ling about these things, not even mention them..."

The demon tribe didn't know much about the cultivation of Taoism, but Mu Xingqiu immediately understood that Yang Qingyin's love crisis had occurred.
