Exorcism

Past events flashed one by one on the surface of the Lake of Mind, like a group of migratory birds heading south for the winter, but they would never stay to rest here again.

Sun Yulu, a Taoist priest from Luanjing Mountain, looked at the huge piece of amber from a distance. Everyone said that the people inside had disappeared, but she always felt that she had seen something vaguely. She smiled. The heart of a Taoist priest could not forget the deeds and emotions of the past. , but she won't be upset by it. She feels ridiculous about it, and at the same time she feels a little nostalgic, just like an adult remembering the scene when she was a child playing with mud.

She stood on a low mountain peak. The land under her feet was barren of grass, with large rocks exposed. It was not the autumn wind that swept away the flowers, grass and soil, but yesterday's war. At the foot of the mountain is the hometown of Laozu Peak, like a dry lake, with amber suspended in the middle, three feet above the ground, flickering with light, and has no longer the magical effect of absorbing various powers.

A large group of Taoist priests flew over Hubo, and one of them broke away from the group and flew towards Sun Yulu.

Mu Xingqiu landed on another rock, dozens of steps away from Luanjingshan Taoist priest, and the two of them saluted each other.

"Are you going to the land of monsters now?" Sun Yulu asked. The group of Taoist priests had already flown far away and did not wait for Mu Xingqiu.

"Well, everything has been arranged. Everyone thinks that the sooner we leave, the better." Mu Xingqiu originally wanted to leave earlier. The longer the Taoist priests stayed, the more suspicious they would be. So it was better to leave early and leave a good impression on each other. But he was delayed by some chores and had to wait all night.

"I seem to have seen Zuo Liuying. Will he continue to supervise your transformation into a demon?"

"Not only that, he also wants to continue practicing."

"Continue to practice?" Sun Yulu was surprised, "I thought...didn't he encounter the Sigh Tribulation?"

"He probably found a way to crack it. Zuo Liuying will not explain more. He just asked the bald man to tell us that he will never speak again in the future and no one should disturb him."

This is indeed Zuo Liuying's style. Sun Yulu smiled, "Zuo Liuying is a lonely Taoist priest. Why doesn't he find a place to live in seclusion? Isn't he just following you to supervise the transformation of demons?"

"We are all looking for Mr. Yishi, so we are on our way.

"To slay demons?"

Qi Wushang collected five demon species, which caused great trouble to the Taoist order, indicating that the guards at Wangshan were becoming more and more lax, and the number of escaped demon species was increasing. The return of the demons to the world is no longer an ambiguous prophecy, but a process that has already begun. The Taoist tradition is deeply shocked. The Taoist priests can no longer say that this is something that happened after their death, and begin to seriously prepare for the battle to eliminate the demons. Zuo Liuying The art of controlling demons is one of the methods.

"In order to eliminate demons. Demon species have weaknesses, but Zuo Liuying's demon control technique is based on the demon blood sacrifice. The cost is too high. Old wounds are not healed, and new ones are added. We feel that Demon Lord's Zhengfa may really It contains secrets that can perfect the art of controlling demons, and only Mr. Yishi can crack it."

The half-demon Yin Buchen claimed that he could decipher the Demon Lord's righteous teachings, but it turned out that it was difficult for him to even understand the literal meaning. Zuo Liuying was proficient in magic texts and had read the original text on the scroll, but he could not understand its meaning. That is a long record describing the process of growth and division of the demon species, and there is no specific method.

Zuo Liuying felt that the opposition between the Dao and the demons was too serious to understand each other, and the demon clan, which was inextricably linked to the demon clan, might be able to understand the demon righteousness from a novel perspective. This demon is by no means unyielding. , it’s not the dead Qi Wushang, only Mr. Old Yishi, the weird old demon who unearthed countless ancient magics and gave them away at will.

Daotong attaches great importance to Mr. Yishi and has been looking for him for several years. Zuo Liuying feels that it is not enough, so he wants to personally go out and meet this mysterious old demon.

Sun Yulu nodded. In fact, she didn't care much about these things. She looked at Amber in the distance again, "Is he really dead?"

"The moment he turned into an amber Taoist priest, the Mengdu disciple was already dead. All that was left was just a shadow. I saw it with my own eyes inside. When I touched it, the shadow disappeared."

"He always likes to take dangerous paths. I don't know if he is a sinner or a hero of the orthodoxy?"

Mu Xingqiu thought for a while, "At least the amber he left behind is still a treasure. Although it cannot absorb magic power, there is enough power stored in it. Yashan will take it away soon.

"Asan? Why not Pangshan?"

"Because Pangshan wanted a large number of new disciples, Xijie Kingdom would not recover its previous population for a long time, so Pangshan exchanged amber for the right to select disciples within Asan, and Asan dispatched the Sword Washing Pool , they have the greatest credit, and they feel this is a deserved reward.”

Sun Yulu, who has the heart of a Taoist priest, couldn't help but have a hint of sarcasm in her laughter, "Yes, Yashan does need amber more than other Taoist traditions. Did they just allow you to take Baldy away?"

"Asan Taoist priests can't always break their promises. They made a promise to Zuo Liuying not to harm the bald man, but they also sent Zhou Qianhui, the first member of the Asan Shenggong Department, to join our team."

Zhou Qianhui's only mission is to take Baldy back to Yashan after he dies.

Mu Xingqiu didn't come to see Sun Yulu just to chat about these gossips. He was about to say something important when several Taoist priests flew from a distance and headed straight for the mountain.

The first one to fall was Xiao Qingtao, "Fortunately, you didn't go far. I want to go to the land of monsters with you."

The third person is Xiao Hao, riding a flea, with sleepy eyes. He doesn't look like a Taoist priest who has condensed his energy into elixir. "Why don't you call me? Where's the bald man? I want to settle the score with him. I agreed that he would wake me up." of……"

Seeing that Bald Man was not here, Xiao Hao patted Qilin's neck and chased to the north.

"The Taoist priests in this team will be possessed by demons at any time..." The reason why Mu Xingqiu did not want to bring others with him was because it was too risky. No one could guess what the possessed Taoist priests would do. He could just take the risk himself. He didn't want his friends to be involved in danger as well. As for Zuo Liuying and Zhou Qianhui, they both had missions to do and Mu Xingqiu didn't need to be responsible.

Xiao Qingtao interrupted Mu Xingqiu, "Just like the non-demon Taoist priests who can rebel at any time, I will feel more comfortable with you, and I also want to help Yang Qingyin."

Mu Xingqiu had just persuaded Yang Qingyin's mother not to follow him before setting off, but Xiao Qingtao was different. After this Dao-monster war, Feiyao became more and more suspicious in the Taoist tradition and could hardly make friends. "Okay." Mu Xingqiu agreed and turned to Xin Youtao, feeling both natural and surprised by his decision.

Xin Youtao seemed to be determined to please Xiao Qingtao, and he would naturally go wherever she went. However, Mu Xingqiu was a little bit beyond Mu Xingqiu's expectations when he dared to go with her to a dangerous place where demons gathered and spend time with a group of demon-invading Taoist priests.

Xin Youtao coughed and said seriously: "It seems that I will live to see the demons return to the world. In that case, why not get used to it earlier? I am the prince of Xijie King and a talisman master, even if I am sent by a mortal representative."

These words were spoken so openly that neither Mu Xingqiu nor Xiao Qingtao could refute them.

"Okay, you two will come with me, but this is not a promise or an obligation. You can leave at any time." Mu Xingqiu said.

Xiao Qingtao smiled. Her Xingyun Ruyi was destroyed and replaced with a new Ruyi that was not very comfortable. The weapon flew up to catch up with the team in front.

Xin Youtao blinked at Mu Xing and followed closely behind Xiao Qingtao. He got another batch of talismans from the nearby human army. He stepped on a huge shield-like plate and flew very fast, so that he would not be caught. The little green peach fell.

"You have some good friends." Sun Yulu said with a smile, "This is not like a Taoist priest who concentrates on practicing and pursuing the origin of Tao Fire."

The relationship between some Taoist priests is relatively close, but between spiritual practice and friendship, the former always has the absolute upper hand, and no Taoist priest would even choose between the two. Xiao Qingtao is not the only non-demon disciple in the Taoist tradition. She is the only one who is willing to follow Mu Xingqiu to save Yang Qingyin. For a Taoist priest, this is the closest thing to friendship.

Shen Hao is another kind of friend. He has promised to lead the Demon Slayer Association to invade the land of demons and reunite with Mu Xingqiu.

Mu Xingqiu smiled and said, "Listen to me, Meng Dujiao is dead, but he left something behind."

"What?" Sun Yulu asked in shock.

"Soul, the shadow in the middle of the amber is the soul of the Mengdu Cult. It is wrapped in amber and has never dissipated."

Sun Yulu was even more surprised. She was a Taoist priest of the Dengzhu family and knew more about souls, but she had never heard of such a thing. She had never seen similar records in numerous books. Suddenly she understood one thing. , "Did you inhale his soul into the Frost Soul Sword?"

Mu Xingqiu nodded, "The souls of Mengdu Cult are very unique, and the suction power of amber comes from it. Zuo Liuying blessed the Frost Soul Sword with some spells to control the suction power, so I can use the sword to absorb the demon seeds. ”

"What he wanted in his heart was always to practice, and he would not regret it until death, so his soul continued to practice and turned his body into amber." Sun Yulu suddenly realized, and she felt a little lucky in her heart. If she had not survived the love disaster, she would have been very sad at this time. , because Meng Yuanhou had no place for her in his heart.

She glanced at Amber again.

"Why are you telling me this? This should be a secret between you and Zuo Liuying." Sun Yulu was a little confused.

Mu Xingqiu also glanced at the amber in the distance. He suddenly decided to do this when he saw Sun Yulu's figure on the way. The heart of a Taoist priest will not let a person completely abandon his love and desire. He has to reach the state of starfall or even concentration. Then you won't care about the past at all.

"Zhou Qianhui saw me using the Frost Soul Sword to absorb the demon seeds. Sooner or later, the Yashan Taoist priests will guess the truth based on this. They will catch up and ask me to hand over my soul, but I don't want to hand it over to them."

Yashan paid a lot of money to obtain the ownership of Amber Taoist priest. Of course, he wanted both "amber" and "Taoist priest". Mu Xingqiu did not want to hand it over, not only because he was more familiar with Meng Yuanhou, but also because the future was full of dangers. He Self-defense skills are required, and Meng Yuanhou's soul absorbs various powers indiscriminately, which is also a reminder of the origin of Dao Fire.

Sun Yulu thought for a moment and said with a smile: "The demon land is dangerous. Luanjing Mountain owes you a lot of favors. I can't repay you. I'll give you a gift. But you can only use it quietly. Never let anyone notice this gift."

Mu Xingqiu gave Sun Yulu a Taoist gift and thanked her for her help.
