The Wheel-Turning Master

Chapter 288: Retreat

The two collected their things and were extremely satisfied.

Lin Bai held the fragment of the stone plate and looked at it carefully. Mu Zhen touched the chessboard with a smile on her lips.

The two of them were not outsiders, so they didn't take any precautions. Mu Zhen grabbed the fragments of the stone plate and played with them for a while.

Lin Bai touched the chessboard again.

"This is a good thing! It's a hundred times better than my chessboard! But you have the greatest credit, so it should be yours!" Mu Zhen returned the fragments of the stone board.

"This chessboard is not mysterious, but since it is the chess equipment of the two Taoist masters, it must have something extraordinary! It's a pity that I have poor eyesight, otherwise I would definitely choose this one..." Lin Bai reluctantly returned the chessboard.

Neither of them clearly saw any clues about what the other party had obtained, but they still had to brag about it.

There is also the plum tree fruit. Although its efficacy is unknown, it is definitely extraordinary. Everything here that contains spiritual energy will be destroyed by the sword's intention, but the plum tree fruit can bear the sword's intention without being destroyed, which is miraculous.

They hid the things happily, and the two sat on the ground to discuss their way out.

There are a total of nine people who can enter this place, which is consistent with the number of Jiuding.

But at this moment, Du Changying's golden elixir exploded, Ying Wangtian and He Bingde died hand in hand, and Yin Yan also turned into ashes.

It is not yet known whether Bi Huanqiu is still alive, nor is it known what happened to Mo Yingcheng and Li Wusheng.

Among the four people who died, Ying Wangtian had the most noble status. He was the disciple of the Lord of Jiuzhe Mountain, and he had great hope of realizing the Nascent Soul.

Now that Ying Wangtian is dead, Jiuzhe Mountain must know. Presumably as soon as he left this place, he would be blocked at the door and asked about the cause of death.

"They bite dogs, how innocent are we?" Mu Zhen sighed.

"Who says it's not the case!" Lin Bai sighed.

The two discussed it for a while, but Mu Zhen was still stubborn.

"Act according to the opportunity!" Mu Zhen waved his hand with a relaxed expression, "Mo Yingcheng is Chen Tianren's disciple, you and I can't implicate him. I was recommended by the wood demon, and you are a fox, so they don't dare to How about it. Of course, even if they insist on using force, I can find a way to take you away!"

Mu Zhen grabbed Lin Bai's sleeve with one hand, stroked Lin Bai's hair with the other, and said with a smile: "You brought me good things, and I will always protect you. You don't deserve to call me mother!"

She actually brought up old things again, which was obviously a tantrum again.

"What time has it been? You should be more serious!" Lin Bai pushed her hand away in disgust, "Mom, it's better to recover as soon as possible!"

After the two of them finished talking, they each sat cross-legged to recover from their injuries.

Mu Zhen was seriously injured, but she had many pills and magic weapons in her hands, so she recovered very quickly. It's just that after all this time, there is still residual sword intent in the body, and it will be difficult to return to its peak for a while.

Lin Bai didn't have a good time either. Although he used the gourd to forcefully contain the sword's intention, he was already exhausted from using the secret technique repeatedly. Finally, Yin Yan tried the sword again, but Lin Bai was already weak.

He didn't plan to stay long, so Lin Bai only recovered briefly. Flesh and blood are born and are already in a vigorous state. Although there is still sword intent left in the body, there is very little left.

After changing into a clean Taoist robe, Lin Bai thought about what he had gained here.

I don’t know the effect of plum tree fruit. I’ll ask the fox some other time. Even if she blackmails you, it's just like feeding a dog. Anyway, even if the care benefits, and Xiuxiu benefits even more, the meat will still rot in her own pot.

There is really nothing magical about the fragment at the moment, and Lin Bai has no intention of imitating its shape or meaning on the stone plate. He has to return to a safe place.

What is more rewarding in this trip is to contain the sword intention here, so that I will have more to rely on in future battles. Although I'm not sure how long it can be used or how many times it can be used, it can still fight even if it is besieged by many late-stage golden elixirs.

Even if you meet Nascent Soul, even if you can't defeat it, you can still disgust people!

After thinking about it for a long time, I heard the sound of breathing.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a panting person with a face full of vicissitudes of life, who had just climbed to the top of the mountain.

It was Mo Yingcheng.

It's just that he was the only one, and Li Wusheng was not seen following him.

And judging from his appearance, the injuries on his body were not serious. Although he was tired, he was not seriously injured.

"Senior Brother Mo." Lin Bai stood up and Mu Zhen also opened her eyes.

"You two have indeed made it to the top." Mo Yingcheng sighed, wiped the blood stains on his face, and smiled bitterly.

"If it weren't for senior brother's humility, Lin Zhuanlun and I might not be able to come out on top." Mu Zhen said with a smile.

Mo Yingcheng is in the middle stage of Jindan, and he is Chen Tianren's first disciple. Although he doesn't know what his strength is, he will never arrive so late.

Although his body was also devastated by the intention of destruction, he was only slightly tired and vicissitudes of life, which shows that he did not use his full strength on this trip.

Neither Lin Bai nor Mu Zhen had any sense of voyeurism. Presumably Mo Yingcheng and Li Wusheng supported each other and were not focused on the opportunity at the top of the mountain.

"I saw that the sword spirit here was much thinner, so I knew someone had an opportunity." Mo Yingcheng panted, walked forward, and saluted the stone statue under the plum tree, and then continued: "Junior sister Bi is not far below. , Most of his life has been taken away by the knife."

He looked at Lin Bai and Mu Zhen and said, "Is there any way to save her?"

"Where's Senior Sister Li Wusheng?" Lin Bai asked.

"I'm watching Bi Huanqiu." Mo Yingcheng said.

"I'll give it a try." Lin Bai responded.

When he was climbing the mountain before, Bi Huanqiu was very determined to seek the truth, and he almost had the intention of dying. Later, he also reminded him to be on guard against Yin Yan and to give him a helping hand both emotionally and rationally.

"Come with me." Mo Yingcheng didn't ask what chance was, nor what was mysterious about the stone statue under the plum tree, nor the whereabouts of Ying Wangtian and others. He turned around and walked back to where he came.

Lin Bai and Mu Zhen looked at each other and followed.

"Why did it take Brother Mo so long to come up?" Mu Zhen was very curious. It had been two days since she and Lin Bai reached the summit. After such an opportunity, Mo Yingcheng arrived just now. It was really a bit embarrassing for Chen Tianren.

"Silent is weak and the journey is difficult. Later, we met Bi Huanqiu, and the three of us became companions. We didn't go very far." Mo Yingcheng shook his head slightly and continued: "This trip was originally for Silent. Since she can’t come up, I won’t force it.”

Mo Yingcheng nodded towards Lin Bai and said with a smile: "Thanks to Junior Brother Zhuanlun for taking care of us in the secret realm of the chessboard. She silently told me about you and she admired you very much."

The three of them chatted all the way down the mountain, and Mo Yingcheng never asked anything about what happened at the top of the mountain.

Half a mile down the mountain, he saw a woman with disheveled hair sitting on a rock. It was Li Wusheng.

There was a person lying in front of her, his whole body soaked in blood, his arms and legs were like bones, his eyes were open, and he was muttering something unknown.

"We're here!" Li Wusheng said weakly when he saw Mo Yingcheng and the others arriving, "Where are Senior Brother Ying and the others?"

"I didn't see it, maybe she went another way." Mo Yingcheng stepped forward with a smile, held Li Wusheng's hand, looked at her again, and asked, "How is she?"

"Go down the mountain now and treat the injury early, and you should be able to save it. If it drags on any longer, I'm afraid it won't work." Li Wusheng sighed, feeling as if a rabbit had died and a fox was sad, "How can a powerful man just wait for a while? The intention of the sword has long been gone. It penetrated deep into her organs, muscles and bones, injuring her roots. Even if she could be saved, I don’t know how long it would take to recuperate... eh?"

Li chatted silently for a while. Seeing that Lin Bai and Mu Zhen seemed to be harmless, she frowned and asked, "King Gourd, why are you okay? But have you found a way to break the rules here?"

"That's right." Lin Bai stepped forward with a smile, sat down cross-legged, and examined Bi Huanqiu's injuries.

"Where are Senior Brother Ying and the others? Have you seen them?" Li Wusheng asked again.

"We have no chance to go together." Lin Bai replied honestly.

"Who got the chance?" Li Wusheng tilted her head and asked casually. She finally understood something. She looked at Mu Zhen, then at Lin Bai, and said sourly: "We agreed that we would advance together and retreat together."

Lin Bai ignored Li Wusheng, and just looked at Bi Huanqiu. He was about to give her the pill, but was stopped by Li Wusheng again.

"She is already in a daze right now." Li Wusheng nodded his head and explained: "Give her some pills to regain her consciousness, and then it's time to climb to the top of the mountain again."

"It doesn't matter." Lin Bai stuffed Yulu Pill into Bi Huanqiu's mouth.

Sure enough, Bi Huanqiu soon became more energetic.

Bi Huanqiu opened his eyes wide and looked around, then stretched out his skeletal hand and looked towards the top of the mountain.

"Why does Senior Sister Bi have to climb the mountain?" Lin Bai asked.

"Because the mountain is right there." Bi Huanqiu looked up towards the top of the mountain.

Lin Bai followed her gaze and saw only stars and clouds.

"Senior Brother Mo, Senior Sister Li, Senior Sister Bi, let me remove the sword intention for you." As he spoke, Lin Bai pointed at Bi Huanqiu's eyebrows, and Lin Bai pressed the gourd again.

Mo Yingcheng was not surprised when he heard this and just nodded towards Lin Bai. Li Wusheng, on the other hand, frowned again and wanted to ask out of curiosity, but after looking at Mo Yingcheng, he held it back.

"Close your eyes and endure the pain." Mist slowly dispersed from Lin Bai's sleeves, covering the three of them.

"As expected, you robbed me again."

Li Wusheng murmured and closed her eyes obediently. She couldn't help but think of the secret trial realm again. She thought that she should discuss it with this group of people, and don't spread the news about the father and daughter, which would ruin her reputation for no reason.

As for whether Lin Juanlun was a talkative woman, Li Wusheng had forced Mo Yingcheng to convince Lin Juanlun and would never let him talk nonsense.

"Senior brother Ying doesn't like to make these silly jokes. Although He Bingde is very scheming, he is also taciturn. Yin Yan often deals with people and always knows how to measure. But Du Changying is very annoying..."

Li Wusheng was pondering in his heart when he heard the sound of wind in his ears, and then his whole body trembled, and he felt a sharp pain in his heart. It was clear that he had been struck by a sword.

Just as he was about to ask, Li Wusheng felt a warm hand pressing on his hand, it was Mo Yingcheng.

Li Wusheng knew that Mo Yingcheng was trying to comfort her, so she calmed down and cursed the Gourd King in her heart.

The flying knife trembled, piercing the bones and the heart. Li Wusheng was not afraid of Lin Zhuanlun harming her. After all, she had been together in the secret trial realm for several lifetimes. She felt that although the Calabash King behaved erratically, he was not bad in character and did not like to kill too much. He also treated weak people. Have compassion.

After waiting for a while, Li Wusheng felt as if he was falling from the sky or sinking to the bottom of the water. In his daze, there was the sound of waves and the subtle chirping of cicadas.

After regaining consciousness, Li Wusheng found that the endless will of destruction raging in his body seemed to be guided by someone, and then his body suddenly became weak, and the will of destruction was actually a little exhausted.

Immediately, the meaning of destruction flowed out of the body and fused with the flying knife.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the fog had dispersed and the flying knives returned to the gourd.

Lin Zhuanlun's face was pale, and there was a ray of silver on the tip of his hair. The person couldn't sit still, so he just closed his eyes tightly to recover.

Mu Zhen stepped forward, opened Lin Bai's mouth, and inserted a pill.

"Gourd King..." Li Wusheng was stunned for a moment and quickly looked at Mo Yingcheng. He saw that Mo Yingcheng's body was also densely covered with dagger holes, but he had the potential to flourish.

The same goes for Bi Huanqiu who was lying on the ground. Although his injuries were more serious, his life had been saved.

Li silently examined himself, only to feel that the sword intention in his body was gone, and the shackles had been broken.

At that moment, Bi Huanqiu was fed the pill first, and Li Wusheng fed another pill to Mo Yingcheng, "Eat mine, mine is good."

"..." Mo Yingcheng's injury was the least serious and he could swallow it, but he still obeyed.

"Thank you, Junior Brother Zhuanlun, and thank you, Junior Sister Mu." Mo Yingcheng smiled slightly and said, "Congratulations to both of you."

Lin Bai opened his eyes and saw Li Wusheng staring at him.

"Thank you." Li Wusheng also bowed.

"It's just better luck." Lin Bai admitted that he had an opportunity, and everyone could see it anyway.

At this time, Bi Huanqiu also woke up. She was stunned for a while, then seemed to regain her consciousness. She looked at Lin Bai, then at Mu Zhen, and then at the top of the mountain.

"Senior sister, are you feeling better?" Lin Bai stretched out his hand to help Bi Huanqiu and let her sit up.

"It's much better." Bi Huanqiu nodded slightly, looked at Lin Bai, and said, "Thank you, junior brother, for saving your life."

"We're all in the same boat," Lin Bai replied with a smile.

"The moon and stars are sparse, and it's all in vain." Bi Huanqiu sighed, forced himself to stand up, and said, "Let's go." There was a hint of desolation in his tone.

Lin Bai immediately supported her.

"Haha." Mu Zhen sneered and stepped down the mountain first.

Mo Yingcheng and Li Wusheng smiled at each other, then looked back at the top of the mountain, and then followed Mu Zhen down the mountain together.

Lin Bai was a kind man. He supported Bi Huanqiu and took out a clean robe. "Senior sister's robe is worn out, why not change it into another one."

Bi Huanqiu nodded. Her hands were covered with blood and flesh. She tore off the blood-soaked robe. Then she gently waved her hand to brush off the blood, revealing a body full of scars. Then she put on the Taoist robe.

"Junior brother, why do you still have Kun Dao uniforms?" Bi Huanqiu asked.

"I have a bad disciple. She likes to do some needlework and meditate in her free time. This was something she did before she became a Taoist. She has always asked me to keep it for her." Lin Bai explained.

Bi Huanqiu nodded lightly. She did not ask about Ying Wangtian and just followed Lin Bai down the mountain.

When we came to the bottom of the mountain, we saw that the knife marks made during the climb had been submerged in water and now became an endless river.

The five people went into the water and went deep into the cave, just like the place where this trip started.

There was a bronze door, and Mo Li and Mu Zhen were already waiting.

Mu Zhen nodded slightly towards Lin Bai, and Lin Bai nodded in response.

Lin Bai and Mu Zhen gained the most from this trip. Not only did the others get nothing, but four people died here. It was inevitable that Jiuzhe Mountain would not be angry.

However, Mu Zhen said that if things were not harmonious, she would have a way to take Lin Bai away alone.

"Lin Zhuanlun, hurry up! Your Taoist companion is still in Daoyin Sect and is looking forward to your return." Mu Zhen finally got angry when she saw Lin Bai still supporting Bi Huanqiu.

When Li Wusheng heard this, he looked at Lin Bai, then asked Mo Yingcheng in his ear, with a somewhat narrow smile.

"Ahem..." Seeing that Bi Huanqiu had also looked over, Lin Bai let go of the hand that was supporting her. Anyway, she had done enough, and it was all about whether she could help or not. He immediately took two steps forward and sighed. He said: "This trip was dangerous, but at least we came back safely."

As he spoke, Lin Bai and Mu Zhen joined forces to push open the bronze door.

The dazzling light struck, as if being caught in the waves of a flood, making it difficult to resist at all.

When he opened his eyes again, he was still in the same place. Mo Yingcheng and Li Wusheng held hands, and Li Wusheng was holding Bi Huanqiu with the other hand.

This place is no different from the place just now, except that there is a little more moisture and a chilling feeling.

Lin Bai and Mu Zhen turned around and saw a dozen people in the distance. They were clearly the same people who had entered the secret realm for the trial.

But at this moment, everyone was silent and looked at Lin Bai and others with strange expressions.

One of them was a stranger, about thirty years old, handsome, gentle, wearing a plain robe, and came forward with a smile.
