The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

After a moment, Li Qing's figure slowly emerged from nothingness like a phantom in the morning mist.

The rolling black fog surrounding him seemed to have life. Driven by his thoughts, it quickly gathered and eventually turned into a radiant black robe that shrouded his body, making him look both mysterious and majestic.

This black robe not only concealed his figure, but also seemed to provide him with an invisible layer of protection, making the air around him heavier.

Above the open space, the figure of the feminine man had completely disappeared, leaving only a piece of clothing, proving that the thrilling sneak attack just now was not an illusion.

Li Qing's eyes were deep and complex, and the surprise and relief that flashed in his eyes intertwined into an indescribable complex mood.

He had never expected that the Heart-Eating Demon was so cunning. Instead of choosing to flee to the direction of the Yanjian Sect and return to the Heavenly Demon Clan's secret stronghold in the human world to seek refuge, it had the audacity to turn back and attempted to use its parasitic powers and concealment techniques to give him a fatal blow.

Fortunately, the ghost robe that Li Qing was wearing was extraordinary. It was forged with the evil energy of heaven and earth and the ancient power of soul refining, and was specially designed to restrain the evil spirits of the soul.

Although the mucus released by the Heart-Eating Demon was a rare soul poison, under the protection of the ghost robe, it was like a drop in the ocean and failed to hurt Li Qing at all.

This ghost robe not only protected his body, but also stabilized his mind to a certain extent, allowing him to remain calm in such a crisis.

However, this sudden battle also cost him a lot of energy.

A series of exquisite magical powers were displayed, the ghost robe was activated, and the extremely fast body movements were almost squeezed out of the remaining two layers of demonic power in his body.

Li Qing's face beneath the mask looked extremely pale at this moment, and the dense beads of sweat on his forehead revealed his weakness and fatigue at the moment.

Looking at the three monks not far away who had obviously not yet fully recovered from their shock, Li Qing did not feel too much in his heart.

He knew very well that it was not appropriate for him to stay for long at this moment, and he had no intention of getting entangled with these monks with shallow cultivation.

Besides, he has more important things to do.

So, Li Qing waved his sleeves lightly, and his figure blended silently into the night like a breeze, leaving behind only silence and emptiness, and the three monks looked at each other with expressions of confusion and amazement.

With Li Qing's departure, the open space returned to peace again.

But the faint sense of crisis in the air seemed to remind everyone present that in this seemingly peaceful human world, there are so many unknown undercurrents and dangers hidden.

Not long after, Wuyunzi, Changyunzi and the honest but thoughtful Qingyunzi finally broke free from the sudden change.

They quickly exchanged a complex and deep look with each other, which contained both reluctance and determination.

"Brother," Wu Yunzi understood the meaning in his brother's eyes. His voice trembled a little, as if he was questioning, or seeking an answer, "Are we really going to abandon Tianyi Temple, which has nurtured countless generations of our disciples, and step into the unknown demon world?"

"Every brick and tile, every blade of grass and every tree here carries our memories and emotions. How can we easily give up thousands of years of time?"

Chang Yunzi's eyes flashed with pain when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure and looked determined. "Junior brother, I know how reluctant you are."

“But the reality is that all the powerful gods in the human world have fallen, just like the sky without Optimus Prime, it is crumbling.

"With just your and my strength, how can we protect the peace of Tianyi Temple in such a chaotic world, let alone protect the entire human world?"

He paused and continued, "Moreover, we witnessed with our own eyes the demon clan's magical powers displayed by the owner of the Shadow Tower. His magical powers were so powerful that they were astonishing."

"Even a strong man like him has realized the crisis in the human world and asked us to seek refuge in the demon world. This is no joke. If we continue to be stubborn, I am afraid that all of our disciples will die in the mouth of the demon."

Qing Yunzi listened quietly at the side, his eyes shifting between his two brothers, with a fierce struggle going on in his heart.

How could he not see now that the human world was in imminent danger?

If they want to protect the human world, the only ones they can rely on now are the demon clan.

But the demons also have a demon world to protect. How could they travel all the way to the human world to fight for the human race? There is no benefit at all and they may even suffer heavy losses.

Moreover, now the demon clan only needs to guard the demon world for ten years. After the period between the two worlds ends, they can have a thousand years of respite.

He understood that the crisis in the human world was like an arrow on a bow string and had to be fired.

However, giving up one's ancestral heritage is an unbearable burden for any sentimental and righteous person.

At this moment, Wu Yunzi suddenly looked at Qing Yunzi and said, "Brother Qing Yunzi, do you have any ideas?"

After saying this, Qing Yunzi pulled himself out of his thoughts, raised his eyes and saw that his senior brother Chang Yunzi and junior brother Wu Yunzi were both looking at him.

Obviously, the two sides were evenly matched at this moment, and his idea played a crucial role.

After thinking for a while, Qing Yunzi took a deep breath, as if he had made a difficult decision in his heart, and finally said slowly: "Junior brother, listen to Senior Brother Chang Yunzi. Although I, Qing Yunzi, am not good at speaking, I have my own ideas in mind."

"The ancestral heritage is certainly important, but as Senior Brother Chang Yunzi said, the future of Tianyi Temple lies in those young disciples."

"They are the hope of the sect, the future gods, and even the seeds of ascension. As long as we can protect them, the flame of Tianyi Temple will never be extinguished."

He took a deep breath, as if to suppress all his hesitation and reluctance in his heart, "Therefore, I agree with Senior Brother Chang Yunzi's decision. We will stay out of the spotlight for the time being, and wait until the time is right before trying to revive."

"Remember, today's retreat is for tomorrow's advance. As long as the disciples of Tianyi Temple are still here, one day, we will take back this world that belongs to us!"

After the conversation ended, the three people's eyes met again. This time, there was no argument, only a firm belief in the future and a deep understanding of each other.

At this moment, they seemed to have seen the glorious scene of Tianyi Temple standing at the top of the human world again after the storm.
