Exorcism

The Tao is boundless. Like all Taoists, Xiaoqiu often talks about these four words. He has indeed seen some incredible spells, but what he saw before him still shocked him.

He stood on the top of the mountain, but this "mountain" was only less than three feet high, and it was horizontal, perpendicular to his body. Xiaoqiu seemed to have accidentally kicked down someone's toy, and then stepped on it. As for the feet, this toy did not completely tip over, let alone be stepped on. The whole person was supported by just the thumb-sized peak.

Xiaoqiu staggered, barely able to steady her body, and found herself in the mountains. The night sky was covered with dark clouds, the cold wind howled by, and the snowflakes scraped from her skin like blades.

Looking down, the first thing he saw was Fangfang, the size of a grain of rice, which quickly became clear under his gaze. She looked up - from Xiaoqiu's point of view, she seemed to be lying on the ground - not the slightest bit There is no feeling that there is a huge creature close at hand.

The scene at Yangshen Peak is getting clearer and clearer. The people and objects inside are not only lying sideways, but also all severely deformed. It seems as if they have been stretched randomly by some force. Fangfang has become slender. The other disciples surrounding the peak may be... Oblate or crooked, they are all strange shapes. Houses and trees are all like this, as if they were clumsy images made out of mud by a two or three-year-old child.

The bottom of Yangshen Peak could not be seen from where Xiaoqiu stood. It was probably empty because it was constantly inhaling clouds and mist.

Xiaoqiu suddenly felt flustered. He didn't know how to get back to the foot of Yangshen Peak, and he didn't know if he should take another step to get out of Yangshen Peak completely. The goal was right in front of him, but he hesitated.

"So, you really have a clear understanding of the three fields."

Xiaoqiu raised her head and saw Yang Baozhen standing in mid-air a few steps away. The strong wind and ice and snow had no effect on her, and she didn't even move the corner of her clothes.

"I...where is this?"

"North of the Ancestor Peak." Yang Baozhen stared at this unique disciple, her expression still indifferent. Probably nothing in the world could surprise her, "It seems you have to go to Taiyuan again."

Before Xiaoqiu could answer, he was blown up by a gust of wind and flew upward at an extremely fast speed. He could vaguely see the twists and turns of the winding stone steps, and thus believed that this was indeed the Ancestor Peak.

The strong wind stopped and there was no trace of ice and snow. Xiaoqiu stood in front of the gate of Laozu Fengtai Courtyard for the third time, but he could not recognize this place at all.

The last time he came to Taiyuan, Xin Youtao once commented that the scenery here was ordinary, except that the trees were taller. Xiaoqiu quite agreed. This time, except for the isolated courtyard gate, everything he saw was completely different from before.

The courtyard wall is still composed of flowers, plants and trees, each one showing a magnificence that Xiaoqiu has never seen or imagined. The leaves are like gold and silver leaves, the flowers are like various kinds of colorful jade, and occasionally there are unknown ones. The big bird soared from the tree crown, its gorgeous tail feathers trailing a long ray of light that lingered for a long time.

Xiaoqiu's eyes were almost exhausted, and her heart was full of doubts. She glanced at Yang Baozhen, but he didn't ask anything.

The courtyard door opened, and the little Taoist priest showed up again. When he saw Xiao Qiu, he immediately showed a tacit smile. When he saw Yang Baozhen behind him, he put away his smile and respectfully performed the Taoist ceremony.

"Take him to see the master." Yang Baozhen's status was obviously much higher than that of Meng Yuanhou, and he could speak to the leader of the Taiyuan in a commanding tone.

"Yes." The little Taoist priest saluted again, with a hint of fear in his expression.

The scene inside the Taiwan courtyard has also undergone tremendous changes. The ground is no longer ordinary bluestone, but neat pieces of white jade.

It was as smooth as ice, and Xiaoqiu walked carefully on it. The surrounding buildings were majestic and majestic, surrounded from head to top by thick clouds and mist, with only a majestic corner occasionally peeking out from the gaps.

This is the wonderland that is consistent with Taoist identity.

Xiao Qiu was dazzled and followed the little Taoist priest for a long time before she finally got around to asking, "Is this what Taiyuan really looks like?"

Yang Baozhen did not follow, and the little Taoist priest was as casual and natural as before. He turned to look at Xiaoqiu, with a mysterious and teasing smile on his face, "Does Taiyuan have to have a real appearance to make you feel at ease?"

Xiaoqiu thought about the meaning of this sentence, and seemed to have some realization, but she couldn't express her specific feelings, "There should be only one truth, right?"

The little Taoist priest stopped, raised his hand to cover his right eye, "I see you the same way now." He turned to cover his left eye, "It has changed a little." He narrowed his eyes, "The change is bigger." He turned around and glanced at Xiaoqiu with his peripheral vision, "You look a little weird." "

The little Taoist returned to normal, "I saw you several times, which one is real?"

"They are all real, but... you see in different ways. I understand, every time Daoguo rises to a higher level, the scene he sees is different." Xiaoqiu closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, Taiyuan changed back to The first two times I saw it were underwhelming.

The little Taoist priest stepped forward and continued, "Haha, you have gone through several calamities and three fields of enlightenment all by your own will, and you have so many doubts. If there was a Taoist caregiver, you would have understood this simple truth long ago. "

Xiaoqiu followed closely behind, his mind turning, switching back and forth between ordinary vision and supernormal vision. The scenery in front of him changed rapidly. He found it very interesting, but more doubts emerged in his heart, "When Meng Du was going through the tribulation, The teacher helped me, but he didn’t say anything about these things, and what happened to Yangshen Peak?”

As soon as he entered the courtyard of Wuzutang, Xiaoqiu was attacked. It was a pale golden unicorn, as tall as a newborn foal, with three-inch long short horns already growing on its head, and its back was covered with It had fine scales, a pair of dark and bright eyes, its nostrils seemed to be blowing air outwards, and its teeth had just grown in. It bit down on Xiaoqiu's trouser leg and shook it desperately.

"It holds a grudge very much," the little Taoist said.

The last time Xiaoqiu came here, she raised her foot to throw away a little thing that looked like a dog and a pig. She didn't expect that it had grown so big. Just when she was about to repeat her old trick, she suddenly discovered that there were two adult unicorns in the yard, so she stood there More than twenty steps away, he was staring at him with fierce eyes.

Adult unicorns are by no means cute animals. They have huge bifurcated black horns, the end of which looks like a dagger. The scales on their body gradually turn from yellow on the back to white downwards, and their gray belly without scales is covered with different shades of growth. The spots on the body expand and contract like bellows, especially their eyes. There is a very thin black line in the middle of the burnt yellow eyeballs, like a poisonous snake monitoring its prey.

Xiaoqiu changed her mind, gently stroked the little Qilin's head, and scratched its neck twice. Like a horse, the little beast narrowed its eyes in enjoyment, released its mouth from biting the trouser leg, and bounced. Running back and forth, sniffing Xiaoqiu from time to time.

"Never offend a unicorn." The little Taoist priest was very satisfied with Xiaoqiu's gentle methods. "They hold grudges and have a magical ability. Even if they change from a child to an old man after a hundred years, they can still recognize you."

Xiaoqiu did not see the adult Qilin last time. At that time, the little Taoist priest was very surprised that he could see the little Qilin, so he asked: "Is the Qilin invisible in the first place, or is it only invisible in the Taiyuan?"

Qilin's breath was full of moisture, and his robe was already wet.

The little Taoist priest took a deep breath and seemed not to want to answer, but the question was too simple. He said, "Only in Taiyuan, there are very few invisible beasts. I hope you will never encounter them."

The first people in the Wuzu Hall gathered together, with the Grandmaster sitting in the middle.

When Xiaoqiu came here the first two times, the place was empty, but now there are many utensils, especially a half-human-high yellow four-legged tripod in the corner, with strange light flowing. Xiaoqiu suspected that it was made of golden spirit. made.

However, he was very confused. Even if he opened up the three fields, it was just a Taoist achievement that Shen Geng had already achieved, and it was not considered a big deal. How could he attract the attention of the masters and leaders?

He turned his attention to Ning Qiwei, and the one who stood up to speak was an old Taoist priest with white beard and hair. He walked up to Xiaoqiu, raised his right hand and pressed it on the young disciple's forehead three times, "Don't squander your wealth if you have a family. Don’t let go of your superpowers lightly. The right way is to preserve your essence and cultivate your mind and spirit.”

Xiaoqiu put away her extraordinary vision, and the strange light in the room disappeared, but the utensils were still there, but they became ordinary, gray and dull, and inconspicuous at all. Lao Zufeng showed him part of the secret and would never take it back again.

"I am Shen Jixian, the leader of the Five Elements Department."

Xiaoqiu hurriedly gave Taoist rituals, "Disciple Mu Xingqiu, I would like to pay my respects to the leader." What he most wanted to practice in the future was the Five Elements, but the leader's surname was Shen, which gave him an ominous sign.

Chief Shen showed a very interested smile, "You have countless doubts in your heart, but before answering these doubts, I want you to make a choice first."

"Yes." Xiaoqiu replied respectfully.

"You have opened up the three fields, ww.ansh.com, but living in Yangshen Peak is very helpful to your practice, so you still have to wait for the expiration of three years before you can try to condense Qi into a pill."

"Disciple understands."

"You can choose in advance which subjects you want to enter in three years, so you can get some help that others don't have."

"I have already thought about the Five Elements." Xiaoqiu said immediately. Although the first Shen Jixian would most likely have a close relationship with the Shen Geng family, he still wanted to be a mage who slayed demons.

"Don't worry. In fact, there are two departments that want to accept you as a disciple. You should listen to the advice of another chief."

"Including the Five Elements, right?"

"Of course. The Five Elements Division specializes in the magic of killing demons and is the guardian and pioneer of the Nine Dao Tradition. But I want to remind you that the career of a demon-slaying mage is full of dangers, and it is rare to end well. He goes deep into dangerous places all the year round, and his later cultivation is very important. It will have a big impact, and it will be very difficult to achieve high-level results.”

"...I know." As the leader who wanted to recruit a disciple, what he said were all bad things, which surprised Xiaoqiu.

Shen Jixian, the leader of the Five Elements Section, returned to his original position, and the other leader stood up.

It turned out to be Zuo Liuying, who had a very bad impression of Mu Xingqiu.

A waitress followed him over, waited for a while and said, "The Forbidden Secret Department recruits at most one disciple every year. The requirements here are the strictest and we will never forgive those who are possessed by demons."

When Chief Shen opened his mouth, he said danger, and when Chief Zuo came up, he said threats.

Xiaoqiu was confused. Is this the way Pang Shan's leader wins over his disciples?
