Keeping a low profile in the world of cultivating immortals

The entire Five Spirits Cultivation City is like a blooming lotus, with the stamen as the center, the wealthy and powerful immortal cultivators occupy the central position, and radiate to the periphery from there.

All the way to the edge of the petals, the edge of the city.

This is the structure of the Immortal Cultivation Society in Wuling Cultivation City, which is simple, crude, and ruthless reality.

As for the West Outer City and the East Outer City, which relied on the expansion of Xiuxian City and did not even enter the edge of the petals, they were naturally inhabited by some low-level casual cultivators who were struggling to survive.

The more peripheral it is, the lower the strength of the casual cultivator, the worse the means of survival, and the poorer the ability to withstand risks. For them, encountering some small risks is very likely to be a disaster.

Xinde Alley, Xin'an Alley, these alleys are at the edge of the Western Outer City. Most of the casual cultivators living here are in the early stages of Qi refining, and the high rents have made it difficult to survive.

When evil spirits come, all the casual cultivators living nearby live in fear.

For things like Xie Sui who are good at concealment and treacherous, they can only place their hope in the patrol team.

The immortal cultivators in the patrol team are not composed of Wuquan Mountain disciples. They are busy cultivating. Wherever they have time to do this, they are like a house, and are contracted out to some small immortal cultivating forces.

It has been two days since the evil spirit occurred.

Two people died.

They were all in Xin'an Lane. By the time the patrol team arrived, the evil spirits were already hiding.

Therefore, the patrol team issued a notice, asking all casual cultivators to rest assured that they have sent people from other places and will definitely remove the evil spirits and protect everyone's safety.

At the same time, the number of evil-proofing talismans increased again, approaching the one hundred mark.

A family may not be able to afford it with their savings, so what if ten families can buy one together?

There are nearly 10,000 casual cultivators nearby, and the supply of evil-breaking talismans is still in short supply.

Seeing this situation, Wu Tao couldn't help but feel lucky that he had the foresight to buy it early. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to afford one now, and he would definitely die if evil spirits came.

As for trusting the patrol with your life?

He also understood that people had died one after another in the past two days.

Wu Tao gently pressed his temples to soothe his spirit. In the past two days, he had not had a good rest, and he did not dare to relax for a moment. He only felt that his head was as heavy as lead.

Moreover, the original owner had encountered evil spirits in the mine and had a psychological shadow. He also had a nightmare last night. When he woke up, he looked crazy and frightened Zhang Li.

Zhang Li sat on the bed, holding her knees with her hands. Her hair was a little messy and her face was haggard. She murmured: "If the evil spirits are not removed, people will continue to die. Maybe one day it will be your turn. Let's pay the rent." You have to pay taxes no matter what you do, isn't it because it's safe here? But when this evil spirit comes, their patrol team does things slowly, and it doesn't seem like they want to protect us..."

Wu Tao sighed and said: "Safety is general, and there is also chaos under order. What's more, it is even more unsafe outside Xiuxian City."

"I heard that people from the patrol team are doing the business of evil-killing talismans. Li Mo, do you think they want to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune if they don't get rid of evil spirits earlier?"

Wu Tao frowned and pondered for a moment before saying: "There is nothing new under the sun. The death of a few casual cultivators is nothing to them. All we can do is be careful and don't go out these days. If you save some rice and meat at home, you can survive for a few more days..."

"Um."

In the past two days, no matter day or night, Wu Tao and Zhang Li had to stay awake alone to guard against not only evil spirits, but also other loose cultivators who rebounded under high pressure.

Another two nights passed.

Three people died in Xin'an Lane.

A family of three died in Xinde Lane.

The gloom in Wu Tao's heart became heavier and heavier, and the price of the Evil-Breaking Talisman also rose to one hundred and fifty-one.

‘We’ve arrived at Xin De Lane. I hope you won’t find me. I don’t have a black constitution, right? Fuck, it’s possible, I’m a time traveler...'

"Patrol..."

Wu Tao felt very heavy, but he knew that he could not collapse. As soon as he collapsed, Zhang Li would also collapse. He must stay calm. They have five evil-breaking talismans.

Restore your energy and spirit.

Wu Tao glanced at Zhang Li who was sitting by the door. At midnight, it was Zhang Li's turn to keep watch. Zhang Li held the iron sword tightly in her hand and held an evil-breaking talisman in her hand. Her expression was tense and she did not dare to relax for a moment.

The same is true for him, even if he holds the spirit stone in his right hand to absorb, and holds the evil-breaking talisman in his left hand, he still holds the evil-breaking talisman even when he is lightly sleeping.

The first half of the night passed quickly. It was quiet outside and nothing happened.

But after these few nights, it seems that evil spirits have not escaped overnight, and they have come out to harm people.

Looking at the tired Zhang Li, Wu Tao stood up, came to her side, took the iron sword and said to her gently: "Go and get some sleep."

Zhang Li nodded without saying anything. She held the evil-breaking talisman in her hand and lay on the bed. She closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep.

Wu Tao glanced at her and could see her eyelashes trembling slightly. The two of them had not slept well for several days in a row. They were physically and mentally exhausted, but they did not dare to really fall asleep.

Time passed slowly, and Wu Tao became more and more tired. It would be good if he could hear screams, which meant that it would not be their turn tonight.

The candlelight on the table was beating slightly. Suddenly, the candlelight swayed backwards. Wu Tao felt his scalp numb. The experience of the original owner encountering evil in the mine flashed in his mind. Endless darkness came over, and he felt a palpable fear in his heart. drowned him...

His pupils began to dilate, as if they were about to lose focus at this moment...

At this moment, Wu Tao bit the tip of his tongue violently. The severe pain caused him to wake up instantly. Almost without thinking, he activated the evil-breaking talisman in his hand and pushed forward...

Zhila! Zhila!

The Evil-Breaking Talisman suddenly emitted black smoke and burned, and his hand was burned by the flames.

A black shadow finally appeared, and the whole body was like a mass of darkness. In the darkness, there seemed to be a pair of eyes that were selective and devoured, ignoring him. This kind of explanation has a kind of attraction that makes people fall into the abyss...

It's evil!

"Zhang Li, wake up quickly!"

Wu Tao shouted, and another Evil-Breaking Talisman was activated, and he slapped it on Xie Sui...

Zhang Li was awakened by the loud shout. She was a light sleeper. As soon as she woke up, she subconsciously activated the evil-destroying talisman in her hand and shot it towards the evil spirit.

After eating three Evil-Breaking Talismans in a row, black smoke continued to emit from Xie Sui's body, and his body became more and more dilapidated. It seemed to be roaring silently, and with a flick, it hit Wu Tao's chest like a tail flick.

Wu Tao felt as if he had been hit hard on the chest, his body flew backwards, his throat was sweet, blood was pouring from his mouth, and with a loud bang, the door fell to the ground.

"Li Mo!" Zhang Li exclaimed, coming to save him...

Wu Tao quickly suppressed the sweet smell in his throat and said: "Leave me alone, kill it while it's sick, use all the remaining evil-breaking talismans to summon it..."

Zhang Li woke up after hearing this. With the two evil-busting talismans remaining, she activated her hands, jumped up, and slapped Xie Sui on him. Then, she felt a pain in her chest, and her body involuntarily hit Wu Tao.

Wu Tao's internal organs were all injured. If he was hit by this, he would definitely be cold. He hurriedly gathered his remaining strength and rolled sideways.

boom!

Zhang Li hit him next to her, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, and she groaned in pain.

Zhila! Zhila!

The evil spirit was burning, the evil-breaking talisman was destroying its body, and the black shadow became smaller and smaller. Finally, there seemed to be an unwilling roar, the black shadow dissipated into the air, and a black crystal the size of a fingernail fell down.

Wu Tao originally planned to take Zhang Li and run away together if the five evil-breaking talismans could not defeat the evil spirits. Seeing this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He climbed to Zhang Li's side, pushed Zhang Li, and said with difficulty: "Zhang Daoyou, how are you?"

Zhang Li turned to look at him. When Wu Tao saw that she was not dead, he felt relieved and said: "The evil spirit has been eliminated. The five evil-breaking talismans were not in vain..."

"We are all alive..."

Zhang Li weakly uttered a sentence: "That's great!"

The two looked at each other, and then laughed in tacit understanding. This kind of relief and relief in the face of danger can only be known to each other.

"The evil spirit is over there..."

At this moment, there was a sound, and footsteps were rushing towards this side...
