Mortal Mage

A wisp of purple mist leaked out from the spirit gathering array, floated aimlessly for a moment, and then dissipated like smoke.

After the purple mist dissipated, an invisible pressure remained around for a long time.

Zhang Mingxuan was so frightened that he stepped back hastily and tried to investigate with his spiritual sense.

Around the top of the mountain, a strong spiritual energy blew away the chaotic aura all around, and then the chaotic aura submerged the top of the mountain again.

You know, the atmosphere in Cangyan Mountain has been chaotic for a long time. The spiritual consciousness here is like clear water dripping into an ink pool. There is no hope of detecting anything. Unexpectedly, this wisp of purple mist can actually blow away the chaotic spiritual energy for a moment.

After making sure that the purple mist posed no threat, he adjusted the runes again. This time, he tried to observe the patterns of the purple mist more carefully.

Approaching the center of the formation again, he raised his hand and drew a rune in the air, then pushed the rune into the formation through the air.

The purple mist began to roll, and this time a thinner and longer stream of purple mist flowed out.

The purple mist also drifted aimlessly for a while and then dissipated like smoke.

The chaotic atmosphere of the entire Niujiao Peak was blown away, and this time it lasted for dozens of breaths.

After all, Cangyan Mountain is the site of an ancient sect. Although the atmosphere is chaotic due to the catastrophe, the spiritual energy is not thin.

The biggest danger of chaotic aura is that the spiritual energy becomes unstable and it is impossible to practice normally. If you practice here, you may even suffer a regression in your cultivation.

Secondly, the chaos of spiritual energy will lead to local spiritual energy riots, monster riots and other phenomena. If you are not careful, you will get lost in the turbulence.

For most monks, such a place is tantamount to a forbidden area.

Therefore, righteous monks and large sects rarely set foot in areas with chaotic auras.

If you can clear out a piece of clear spiritual energy, this place can be used for more than just hiding.

Zhang Mingxuan tried it many times until the purple mist in the spirit gathering array was completely consumed, then he used his spiritual sense again.

With his cultivation, he can at most extend his spiritual consciousness twenty feet. (About 66 meters)

Under the spiritual consciousness, the air around is clear and bright.

He secretly practiced his magic, and rich spiritual energy immediately poured into his acupuncture points all over his body and gathered in his lower dantian.

However, his Dantian was already full, and the spiritual energy stopped entering when it reached the overflowing Dantian.

Only after building the foundation can you continue to expand the Dantian Qi Sea.

"As long as we can make the magic power in the spirit gathering array continue to flow out steadily, we can ensure that the turbid spiritual power around us cannot get close."

Zhang Mingxuan murmured for a while, rubbed his chin, and felt a roughness on his hands.

I didn't know when my face was covered with stubble.

After waking up suddenly, I looked around.

On the other side of the pond, I saw two girls, Ye Die and Ye Wu, sitting cross-legged on two blue stones with their eyes closed... I didn't know whether they were resting or practicing.

"Cough cough..."

Zhang Mingxuan coughed twice to wake up the two girls.

Ye Die Ye Wu heard the sound, opened her eyes and looked, her eyes curved into crescents.

Ye Die was the first to jump up from the bluestone, flew across the pool in three or five steps, knelt on one knee in front of Zhang Mingxuan, and said in surprise and joy: "Disciple congratulates Master on the completion of the formation!"

"Disciples wish Master a successful formation!"

Ye Wu followed closely behind, kneeling on one knee towards Zhang Mingxuan.

Zhang Mingxuan stroked his beard, walked to the pond, and began to wash his face...wash his hair...Finally, he jumped into the pond, took a dive, and when he surfaced, he raised his eyebrows and asked:

"When did you two come? How long have you been here?"

"I have already arrived at Cangyan Mountain. I sent you many jade slips of voice transmission, but you didn't reply. Later, I asked Fairy Yao and learned your location at Cangyan Mountain. Fairy Yao told us the formula for entering the formation in the jade slip. My sister and I didn't expect that this peak was hidden. We tried hard to find it at the foot of the peak, but we couldn't find it. We searched for another half a month before we used the formula to find the location of this peak. It took us many days to climb to the top of the peak." Ye Die became more and more excited as he spoke. "After reaching the top of the peak, I saw that you were busy setting up the formation, so I didn't dare to disturb you rashly. You have been waiting for six months."

Zhang Mingxuan felt a tightness in his heart when he heard what Ye Die said.

What he was worried about was not anything else but the jade slip he sent to Yun when he first came here, telling her his location.

If I'm not mistaken, Huanyun should be nearby.

It’s over. I don’t know what the consequences will be if I stand up Xianyun.

After coming to his senses, he noticed that the sound-transmitting jade slips were shining brightly all around him. There might be hundreds of them.

He jumped out of the pool, grabbed all the jade slips, held them in front of him, and used his internal energy to dry his clothes.

These sound-transmitting jade slips include those of Hua Yu, Wang Wan'er, Shi Manman, Qing Ling, Yu Shitao, Qing Lan, Hao Fen, Que'er, and even a Chen Feng.

Of course, the most common ones are those with rhyme.

He took the lead in activating the jade slip that was closest to the rhyme.

"help me."

Inside the jade slip was the miserable cry of Xiyun.

Using spiritual sense to sense, I found out that this jade slip was sent out half an hour ago.

But the jade slip did not specify the location, so he activated the previous jade slip of Yun again.

"You bastard! You actually want to kill me!"

The rhyme was sad and angrily cursed.

Zhang Mingxuan frowned and activated the previous jade slip again.

"Zhang Mingxuan, my spiritual power has been exhausted!"

Xiyun's voice was almost broken.

"Zhang Mingxuan, what on earth do you want to do by tricking me here?"

"Why are there monsters surrounding us? What are you doing? Don't you know my level of cultivation?"

There was anger in Xiyun's voice.

"I have been wandering here for dozens of days. The place you marked is a thousand feet high, and I have never seen anything there."

The voice of Xiyun was trembling.

"The atmosphere in this mountain is chaotic and filled with evil spirits. I dare not move forward rashly. You must come and help me quickly."

There was some anxiety in the sound of the rhyme.

"Your Majesty, I have arrived at the location successfully. The atmosphere in this place is chaotic, and I have been lost for many days. I have not been able to find your Majesty's trace so far. I hope your Majesty can give me some guidance."

The voice of Huanyun is gentle and the tone is charming.

"Roar, howl, hiss..."

A low, terrifying roar rolled through the mountains and forests, the sound quickly rising and becoming increasingly harsh.

"Ah~..."

A shrill and painful howl echoed through the mountains and forests.

The echoes of the intertwined sound waves in the valley linger.

Zhang Mingxuan's eardrums seemed to be torn apart and his heart was beating like a drum.

His mood hit rock bottom in an instant.

The piercing scream just now made his scalp numb and countless beads of cold sweat instantly rushed up his back.

He had never heard of Xiyun's screams, but that hoarse sound of pain plucked at every nerve in his body, leaving him no doubt - it was definitely Xiyun.

"Oops……"

He cursed under his breath, feeling extremely regretful.

His recklessness and negligence caused him to ignore the potential dangers in the area and fail to check the surrounding situation again.

With a sudden wave of his hand, the spiritual pattern spear instantly took shape, and Zhang Mingxuan's aura instantly became sharp.

"Quick! Follow me to save your Second Master's Wife."

With an urgent roar, he rushed to the edge of the cliff, jumped down, and stared at the direction where the roar of the monster in the distance came from.

The roar made him anxious.

He went deep into the forest.

Yedie Yewu heard the sound and followed closely, flying down the cliff.

The two girls knew that the formation covering the peak was extremely concealed and defensive, and they were completely unaware of the threat posed by the monster. Seeing Zhang Mingxuan's anxious expression, they realized the seriousness of the matter and followed him across the peak and ran towards the deep forest below.

He quickly mobilized the spiritual power in his body, trying to reach the scene of the incident in the shortest time possible.

"We can't let anything happen to Xiyun! We can't let Xiyun get hurt!"

Deep in the forest, the mixed smell could hardly conceal the bloody breath of the monster.

It is clearly very close.

Zhang Mingxuan felt heavier than ever at this moment.

He couldn't understand why he and Hao Fen had been traveling safely all the way and had no idea there would be monsters in the mountains. Besides, Li Jing had never mentioned this matter.

In fact, when he entered Cangyan Mountain, he was accompanied by the seventh-level demon slave Haofen. The nearby demon beasts smelled the scent from afar and disappeared long ago.

Not long after Hao Fen left, Ye Die and Ye Wu came back the same way. The nearby monsters were afraid of Hao Fen's remaining power and did not move rashly for a while.
