Five Immortals Gate

Li Yan noticed something, "Soul Lamp", what is it? He was about to ask about the soul lamp.

"Junior brother, not far ahead is where we live. I heard that there used to be many houses here, but a hundred years ago, some disciples who worshiped Xiaozhu Peak just wanted to get the cultivation resources of Xiaozhu Peak. When they started to show their prominence, , I no longer wanted to do chores like Xiaozhu Peak, and later I devoted myself to the other four peaks one by one to specialize in practicing spiritual insects, formations, and alchemy. The master locked the peak in anger and closed the door, only occasionally As a disciple, the original buildings here seemed to be too many. Master later used magic power to demolish 70 to 80% of them. Now those places have been used to cultivate spiritual plants or for other purposes, leaving only 20% of them. , 30% of the houses are occupied.”

Before Li Yan could ask, Lin Daqiao slowed down and pointed at a large dark house in front of him.

Only then did Li Yan realize that they had unknowingly arrived in front of a house, and the aura here was surprisingly rich. The air felt slightly heavy, several times denser than where they had just come down the mountain.

The houses in this area are all made of black bamboo. They vaguely look like independent small courtyards. Each courtyard is about five or six hundred meters apart, and there are random roads between these adjacent courtyards. The dark green bamboo leaves swayed in the wind, and the green light crystals slowly flowed and flickered, making it difficult for people outside the courtyard to see anything in the courtyard. It seemed so lonely and quiet, and there was mist in some places, covering that space.

Li Yan couldn't help but feel relaxed and happy in the secluded bamboo, as if his heart was gently swaying with the bamboo waves.

"Junior brother, there are more than fifty empty courtyards here. You can choose any one, and you will live in that courtyard alone from now on." At this time, Lin Daqiao's words broke the tranquility here, and Li Yan slowly Come to your senses.

"Oh, okay, okay, then it's Senior Brother Lao Seventh." Li Yan replied quickly.

So the two of them stopped talking and started walking through the bamboo forest, opening a courtyard door from time to time and going in to take a look.

After about a cup of tea, Li Yan and Lin Daqiao stood in a courtyard again. This was a relatively remote place among the entire group of houses. It was located on the northwest side of the group of houses. Although each yard was far apart from each other, They are about a mile apart, and they cannot see each other due to the obstruction of the black bamboo forest in the middle. However, Li Fang still chose this relatively remote courtyard. There is no one else living here, front, back, left, and right. The right side is the farthest edge of the group of houses. Outside the courtyard is an endless sea of ​​ink bamboo, and he likes the secludedness here.

Li Yan looked around at everything in the courtyard and felt very satisfied. He decided that he would live here. He thought that when he made this decision, the seventh senior brother would have something to say because the place he chose was too remote. , but Lin Daqiao didn't show any surprise, which surprised him. Later he found out that most of the immortal cultivators didn't like being too close to others. The other peaks were just because there were too many disciples, and only the disciples above the Foundation Establishment stage had the right to live in such a single courtyard. The other disciples at the Qi Condensation stage They can only live in a single room adjacent to a contiguous building complex. This is also the obvious difference between Xiaozhufeng and other peak disciples.

\u003c/di\u003e

However, a hundred years ago, Xiaozhu Peak also had a large complex of buildings dedicated to the residence of Qi Condensation Stage disciples. These courtyards were only reserved for monks of the Foundation Establishment Stage and above. However, Master Wei Dafong later demolished all those buildings, leaving only a few dozen There is a courtyard like this.

Li Yanxuan's courtyard covers an area of ​​about forty feet, which is very large. The courtyard walls are also made of densely intertwined bamboo fences more than two feet high. The houses are also made of black bamboo, with a total of five rooms. The courtyard is spacious and quiet. , there is only a stone table and four stone benches in the middle. The sky above is half-blocked by the bamboo leaves extending from outside the courtyard. A small plantation has been cultivated in the southwest corner of the courtyard wall, and there are many plants that Li Yan doesn't recognize. The blue flowers are about one foot tall and have slender green leaves. The flowers are emitting a clear orchid fragrance, adding a quiet orchid flavor to the air here.

Li Yan was looking at the bamboo courtyard. Lin Daqiao reached out for Li Yan's storage bag. He patted it and a white light flashed. There was something in his hand, which was like gold but not gold. It was like iron but not iron. I saw him chanting the magic formula, swaying the waist card in his hand, and a black light emitted from the card, which flashed and fell on the bamboo fence wall. Suddenly, a mist rose from the bamboo fence wall, The mist continued to surge and spread, but it only formed a circle along the fence and did not seep into the courtyard at all. It enveloped the bamboo courtyard in a short time.

Li Yan stared at this scene blankly. He didn't know what the seventh senior brother was doing.

"Okay, you just need to identify the owner of this waist card with blood." Looking at Li Yan's stunned look, Lin Daqiao patted him on the shoulder.

"Each bamboo courtyard has a set of protection formations. This waist tag is engraved with the magic to control this formation. As long as you identify the owner of this waist tag with blood, you can control this set of protection formations, but a The waist card can only activate one set of formations. For example, although the waist card on my body also has the magic to control the bamboo courtyard, it can only control the set of formations it activates, which is the bamboo courtyard where I live.

The waist tag also has other uses. It is also engraved with the entry identification mark of the entire sect's sect-protecting formation. Otherwise, if you break in rashly, the formation will launch an attack on its own. Our sect-protecting formation is not like other sects who are just psychedelic. Among the various methods of protection and direct attack, the hidden unknown poisonous insects, poisonous gas, and poisonous mist are the most terrifying. Even the ancestors in the Nascent Soul stage are also afraid of them. "Speaking of this, Lin Daqiao seemed to remember something, and his originally dark skin turned pale.

"Ahem, in short, you have to keep this waist card. If you lose it and go to the Deacon Hall to replace it, you will be punished. Well, our bamboo courtyard protection formations are ordinary magic formations. They are used to prevent others from rashly breaking in during daily practice. It plays the role of early warning and protection. This protection can almost withstand a full-strength blow from an early-stage foundation-building master. It is also extremely powerful. A full-force blow from an early-stage foundation-building master will probably almost destroy a small mortal town. However, There is no foundation builder in this sect.

It is completely enough for masters to casually attack other people's protective formations.

Well, if junior brother feels that it is not enough in the future, you can go to Sixth Senior Sister or the senior uncles at Sixiang Peak and ask them to redo a set of formations for you. That would be much better than this. "

Lin Daqiao briefly introduced the protective formation and the sect's protective formation. Finally, Li Yan heard him mention Sixth Senior Sister, which reminded him of the tall, short-haired and cold beauty with wheat-colored skin. He asked, "Sixth Senior Sister also knows formations?"

Lin Daqiao patted Li Fang on the shoulder again, which made Li Yan very speechless. He muttered in his heart, "We just met, okay? Why do you keep patting him so often?"

"Junior brother, our Xiaozhufeng is a grocery store. Although we are doing logistical chores, the skills we have learned are also blooming. The sixth senior sister is not only good at formations, she is also powerful in individual combat. Even the second senior brother is not She was willing to fight with her too much. The uncle and master of Sixiang Peak wanted her to go there more than once, but she didn't want to be like those peaks and only study one method. She was afraid that if she went to Sixiang Peak, other techniques would be lost. It was delayed, even though the formation was unpredictable against the enemy."

"A strong soldier in combat alone? The second senior brother is the one who is as strong as a warrior." Although Li Yan thought of the short-haired beauty's explosive figure under her robe, he still couldn't imagine the scene of her competing with the bear-like figure of the second senior brother.

"Junior brother, let's go in. There are still many things I want to tell you." Lin Daqiao didn't want to say more. He walked towards the bamboo huts and pointed at them as he walked. .

"These houses are generally enough for you. They are divided into lounges, practice rooms, feeding rooms, alchemy rooms, and living rooms. Unless you have more hobbies, you need to open a bamboo house in this yard by yourself. , building a house is not difficult, you can learn it in a long time, but you need to pay attention to the materials used to build the house.

Well, in an uninhabited courtyard like yours, although there are handymen who come to clean and take care of the spiritual plants in the courtyard, they don't come often. You can see that there is still some dust. Please wait for your senior brother to clean it up for you. Lin Daqiao was talking to himself. Seeing that the bamboo courtyard was not very clean, he waved his sleeves and robes forward, and the doors of several houses opened at the same time. Then he quickly made a mark on his chest with his hands and scolded softly. With the sound of "Go", a white light flashed out, and immediately turned into several wet whirlwinds, which swept towards several rooms and the stone tables and benches in the courtyard. The movements were light and casual, and they actually smelled like dust. A soft "Woo" sound suddenly sounded in the courtyard, and it disappeared after a few breaths.

"Okay, haha" Lin Daqiao clapped his hands and smiled, then walked towards one of the houses.

Li Yan's eyes lit up when he looked at the stone tables and benches in the courtyard. There was only a little floating dust on them, and they were almost shiny after being scrubbed.

"This is magic. It's not just for flying and killing people." Li Yan became more curious about magic. When he turned around, Lin Daqiao had already stepped into the middle.

\u003c/di\u003e

In that house, he quickly followed.

This is a room about five or six feet wide. It is very spacious. There is a bamboo table with a tea set on it, and several tall bamboo chairs. The four walls are green and white, and there are no decorations hanging on them. Two large doors The bamboo windows open outwards, which is extremely simple.

"This is the living room. The layout of the other rooms is simple. They are basically beds, futons and the like. We monks don't have high requirements for external things, especially the master who doesn't like those luxurious things. Haha." Lin Daqiao pulled up a chair Sat down.

At the same time, in a room in another bamboo courtyard one to twenty miles away from this bamboo forest, a young man and woman were talking, "You, the new disciple, are dishonest. You should be careful when doing things. He left most of the matter of killing that military advisor to that marshal and his junior brother. I asked a few questions on purpose, and I obviously answered them after thinking about it."

The beautiful woman in white palace clothes looked at the fat young man, her big eyes flickering as she spoke.

This young man and woman were the master and mistress that Li Yang had just worshiped.

"Oh, yes. Judging from the survey results of the disciples at Lingchong Peak and the investigation of his origins from the subordinate sects, it should be that he set up the ambush, including the last blow, which was also the killer. It's just that today he But he didn’t tell the truth, and replaced all these things as the actions of others. For a young man to act like this, I thought it might be related to what he had experienced, and he had already become distrustful and wary of others. " Wei Zhongran shook his head helplessly.

"So how much of what he said about cultivation is true? How much of it is false? Is there something hidden or is it all a lie?" The woman blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at her husband.

"It is estimated that there will be reservations, and even most of them are fake, but is there a difference? It has been hundreds of millions of years, and the sect has been studying it for so long generation after generation. Isn't it still impossible to know the cause of the formation of this physique? If we use soul searching Technique can get information from his mind, but this is not the result I want. Everyone has his own opportunity. He is a mortal boy who fought for his own life. Why should he be taken away by others? , so I have to accept him, otherwise his end may be very tragic. When he feels a sense of belonging to the sect in the future, I think he will tell it. "

Having said this, a wry smile appeared on his lips again. "Sister, maybe I'm not suitable for cultivating immortals. Master gave me this big little bamboo peak, and it was finally managed like this. Seeing this child's experience, I actually felt compassion. Cultivating immortals, cultivating immortals, I really If you can’t take that step to cut off all the love, you may not be able to have a baby in this life.”

A pair of white catkins slowly stretched out and held the fat hand, "You are like this is the reason why I like you, because you are affectionate and you have your own bottom line." The woman's eyes flashed with tenderness, and the next moment it was full of tenderness. She hummed slightly, like a playful girl.

"Hmph, besides, you weren't a good person back then, you were just treating people and things, that's all." The woman put her chin on her other hand as if she was lost in memories.
