The villain is right beside me

For the first time, Mu Qing felt the magic of his spiritual sense. Without using his eyes, he could "see" any detail within a ten-mile radius.

The flowers sway gently, and the dew on the petals slowly drips onto the soil; a butterfly flutters and stands, bathing in the morning light, its figure agile and graceful.

The Platform Building Realm is indeed not comparable to the Awakening Realm. The spiritual power alone is a hundred times that of the Awakening Realm, allowing him to fly in the air with the help of objects. The speed is also self-evident. He estimated that the normal flying speed is 40 meters per second, but when he flies at full speed with a magic weapon, it can reach 300 meters per second.

"No wonder mortals yearn for a life of cultivating immortals. Possessing power beyond that of ordinary people is indeed very tempting." Mu Qing was just thinking about returning to the sect when Lao Wang said to him.

"Wait, you just broke through and your aura is too conspicuous. Are you going back to the sect like this?" Lao Wang said.

Mu Qing was stunned, thinking about the pros and cons involved. A breakthrough was a good thing, but it would be difficult to explain if his master questioned him. Moreover, he felt that the assassination this time was premeditated by someone.

The enemy knew that the junior sister's strength had declined, so they sent out assassins below the Lunhai realm. They also knew that she was in the Lunhai realm, so they sent out two Quasi-Sea realm assassins...

You know it in so much detail, so it seems that there is something fishy going on in the sect!

Mu Qing: "How can I hide my cultivation?"

“A cultivator with extremely sharp spiritual sense can directly judge your cultivation level by the aura emanating from your body. Although some aura concealment techniques can hide the aura, if someone’s cultivation level is much higher than yours, they can still see it.” Lao Wang said, “Let me teach you a little trick. Do you know how some monsters avoid being hunted down by their natural enemies? They use the surrounding environment and smells to blend themselves with the world and conceal themselves. Use your temperament of rock and soil and your liver of poisonous wood to perceive the environment of the earth…”

Mu Qing understood and did it immediately.

“Use the lung energy of Gengjin and the kidney energy of Yinshui to feel the changes of clouds and rain in the sky...”

I am the five elements, I am nature.

After a while, Mu Qing opened his eyes. The restraint and depth in his eyes made him look ordinary, as if he was just a plant between heaven and earth.

"That's right." Lao Wang said with relief. This guy's talent is not very good, but he is smart.

Mu Qing flew again, but this time, his speed was much slower, and he returned to Piaomiao Sect slowly and leisurely.

Mu Qing returned to the cave and was thinking about whether or not to tell the headmaster about this matter. At this moment, the restriction at the entrance of the cave was triggered and a voice was transmitted.

"Su Mei." Mu Qing knew that she was his master's maid, and was brought to the mountain by his master himself. It was said that they had a very good relationship.

Mu Qing walked out of the door and saw Su Mei looking at him with a cold, disgusted expression, which made him confused.

"Your master wants you to see her immediately after you return."

Having said that, she left.

Longfeng Mountain has two peaks. Yunxi lives in the west end, and the area within a hundred meters outside the cave is full of restrictions.

It was the first time for Mu Qing to come to the cave of the Lunhai Realm cultivator. After transmitting the message outside, the restriction opened a passage, and Mu Qing stepped in. Outside the gate, elks were walking around, yellow sheep were running, and from time to time, small animals with snow-white fur like rabbits were rolling around. The strong and thick spiritual energy of heaven and earth rushed towards me, and I felt moist and fresh every time I breathed. The breeze blew on my face, and I felt like I was floating away on the wind.

Entering the cave, Mu Qing was amazed by the steep cliffs, splashing waterfalls, and crystal mist that formed countless colorful rainbow bridges under the sunlight, which was extremely gorgeous.

“Is it beautiful?”

When Mu Qing heard the voice, he turned around and looked. He was shocked and a trace of murderous intent boiled in his mind.

Yunxi smiled, but her pale face made people feel distressed. Her breath was weak, as if she was seriously injured: "Everything you see is fake." As she said that, she waved her hand, and the mountain springs, animals, plants, waterfalls, red maples... the picturesque scenery around her all gradually dissipated like smoke in the blink of an eye. Mu Qing opened his mouth wide, shocked!

When all this disappeared, what appeared before our eyes was a hall, antique, plain and simple.

Mu Qing understood something: "Formation!"

"It's just a small decorative illusion." Yunxi said, "Are you okay?"

Mu Qing shook his head and said, "I'm fine, but you..."

"I'm fine." Yunxi looked listless and frail, as if she would fall down if the wind blew: "I'm glad you're okay. This is for you." She threw a box to Mu Qing, which contained several pills.

"These can be of great help to you in building the platform. Next, I will rest and retreat for a while, probably for a long time. You... practice well. I hope I can see you have built the platform next time." Yunxi covered his chest and coughed violently. There seemed to be blood in his hoarse throat, as if he was making arrangements for his funeral.

"You are going to go into seclusion now." Mu Qing was a little reluctant. A cultivator would go into seclusion for a few years at the least, or even a hundred years at the most. Moreover, given her current condition, it was really worrying.

"I'm fine." Yunxi giggled, as if she had returned to her old, playful and cute self: "Who am I? I have a heavenly immortal root and the number one genius in Piaomiao Sect."

Mu Qing's heart tightened as he watched.

Yunxi said jokingly, "Well, it's just a matter of a few decades. A cultivator has a long life. But don't wait for me to come out and turn you into an old man. You might as well find a woman to marry and have some big fat boys so you won't be lonely."

Mu Qing laughed dryly.

Yunxi said, "Hey, how about my little Mei? She's not bad looking, and has been with me for so many years. Instead of giving her away for free to someone else, why not give her away for free to my apprentice?"

Mu Qing's face was dark: "Stop joking, you should take care of yourself."

Mu Qing asked: "Master, who were the people who were chasing us at that time?"

Yunxi sneered: "Why, you still want to help me get revenge? That's unnecessary. When I get better, I will definitely find them out."

Mu Qing: "Master, to be honest, the one who was chasing me was a monk from the Platform Building Sect, and I killed him."

Yunxi seemed unmoved.

"I found something on that man's body, and it seems to be related to them."

Yunxi was shocked: "What is it? Let me see."

When she stretched out her hand, Mu Qing suddenly grabbed her snow-white wrist as if he was going to hand her something. Yunxi was so frightened that he actually grabbed it with his backhand in an extremely fast motion.

She grabbed his wrist and he placed his other hand on hers.

The two were stunned at the same time, and then one looked weird while the other looked shocked.

"you······"

"you!"

Yunxi blushed and said in surprise, "Wow! Disciple, you actually built a platform! How did you build a platform? This is too unbelievable."

Mu Qing stared at her speechlessly, and said with a dry cough: "Master, don't change the subject first. Let me ask you, are you really seriously injured?"

Yunxi suddenly started coughing violently.

"Your pulse is strong and continuous, and your pulse is long and stringy. You don't look like a seriously injured person at all." Mu Qing said with a green face: "Master, you are playing me."

Yunxi simply stopped pretending and said, "It seems like I have to find a way to change the pulse next time."

Mu Qing said: "You want to test me?"

"I just wanted to see if my acting skills could be so realistic that it looks pretty good."

More than good, your acting skills just now, that expression, the look as if you knew that the end is near and you will die soon, there is really no problem for you to win the little golden man.

Mu Qing suddenly guessed, "You want to use this to find out who around you has two minds?"

Yunxi said with relief: "Yes, you are indeed smarter than I thought. It seems that you have understood the reason for this pursuit. There is a traitor in the sect!"

"Do you know that a few years ago, a disciple of our sect died for no reason? In fact, just one month before I accepted you as my disciple, an inner disciple also died mysteriously. This incident attracted the attention of the sect's top leaders."

Mu Qing: "Do you suspect that this is why we are being hunted?"

"No." Yunxi said: "The pursuit is another matter. The reason for the disciples' death seems to be that they saw something dirty when they were alive."

"Dirty thing..." Mu Qing shuddered: "There's a ghost!"

"That's ridiculous, but it's possible that he's close to a ghost." Yunxi said, "I suspect it's just evil thoughts."

Without waiting for Mu Qing to ask, Yunxi explained, "Evil thoughts are just terrifying evil thoughts born from the inner demons of cultivators. When we cultivators encounter distracting thoughts, it is easy for the inner demons to invade, but mild distracting thoughts can easily eliminate the inner demons. But if the obsession is too deep, there are too many distracting thoughts and the mind is not firm enough, the inner demon will easily invade. But if the cultivator's obsession is far stronger than the inner demon, two situations will often occur."

"One is to completely swallow up the inner demon, turning obsessions into demonic thoughts, becoming insane, having strange temperaments, and killing people for fun. These are called being possessed by demons by cultivators. In fact, demonic cultivators are all about doing whatever they want, which is similar to cultivators who are possessed by demons. The other is that cultivators can control their inner demons, and the inner demons turn into another demon heart of theirs. They have a hidden demon heart. Such cultivators are often hypocritical, and you can't find out on weekdays. They look like honest people, but in fact they have another side that is unknown to others. Haha, although it is said to be controlling the inner demon, it is better to say that they are controlled by the inner demon."

"Whether it is the former or the latter, once the evil thoughts and evil ideas accept the obsession of the monks, they will turn into an invisible evil thought. You can't see this evil thought, but it will penetrate everywhere and take the opportunity to invade your soul, causing you to die without knowing it."

Mu Qing shuddered: "So terrifying. If our sect doesn't know who will give birth to the evil thoughts, will it keep killing?!"

"Evil thoughts are not that scary. Some spiritual tools can resist their invasion." Yunxi: "I'm just afraid that it's not the evil thoughts..."

"It was man-made..." Mu Qing answered for her: "Do you think these two things are related?"

Yunxi: "So, I plan to pretend to be sick to see if anyone has bad intentions towards me."

Mu Qing suddenly remembered: "Master, who else knows about your injury?"

"Xiaomei, Master, and all the senior brothers...I'm sure this will spread in the sect soon." Yunxi said.

Mu Qing said: "It's not enough to just act, we have to make it real."

"You intend to ..."
