Ninth-level fairy

"Over three hundred miles from here, there's a mountain called Shading Mountain. At the foot of the mountain is a town called Cangyun Town. A great demon lives in the town!"

"A town, a big demon? How can a demon live with humans? Impossible!"

Du Fang was a little puzzled. Although he had often gone down the mountain to eliminate monsters in the past seven years, monsters and ghosts would occasionally sneak into human villages and towns, but they would just come and go. This was because although human residences were full of blood and energy, they also had too much turbid air, which was not suitable for monsters and evil spirits to cultivate.

Only the pure and clear places with abundant spiritual energy in the mountains are suitable for this kind of spirits to practice.

"This great demon is different from other demons and ghosts. It is waiting for an opportunity that only comes once in a thousand years! Therefore, it has been living in the ancient town of Cangyun for the past few years."

"What's the difference?"

"This great demon is called the Mirror Demon. Its true form is a mirror, and it doesn't feed on human flesh and blood... Its true form can confuse people's minds and drive them mad..."

"Master, do you want me to get that mirror?"

"No, I want you to take that great opportunity!"

"Opportunity?" Both of them were puzzled.

"What is opportunity?"

"This opportunity is like a blooming fairy spirit. It withers once every three hundred years and blooms once every three hundred years. This flower has already bloomed, but unfortunately, someone got there before us. Not long ago, your two uncles were injured because of this. The Mirror Demon is in Cangyun Ancient Town, waiting for the fairy spirit flower to pass by."

"Is it a flower?"

"Then why can't we just rob them? Why do we have to kill monsters?"

"Because this fairy flower was escorted by the guards of the Longyuan Sword Sect, and also included the Yama Luos of the Three Palaces, all of whom are top sword cultivators of the fourth and fifth realms."

Li Qingshuang and Du Fang took a breath of cold air at the same time.

In Zhongze Province, although the Lingxiao Sword Sect controls the entire province and has 3,600 disciples, it is still as small as an ant compared to the Longyuan Sword Sect that controls the Nancang Continent.

Especially the Lord Huang who is at the peak of the seventh realm of Longyuan Sword Sect.

He is said to be a genius that appears once in a century. He broke through the seventh realm at a young age and became the strongest swordsman on this continent. With a blood-red sword in his hand, he can destroy a sect as easily as chopping off an ant.

Li Qingshuang smiled bitterly and said, "These opportunities are all escorted by sword cultivators of the fourth and fifth realms. My cultivation is shallow, so I'm afraid... I'm afraid I'm not up to the task!"

Xuan Zhen chuckled and said, "That's fine. That Mirror Monster is only a fourth-level ghost cultivator, yet it had the audacity to touch the things of the Longyuan Sword Sect. Can you guess why?"

"Could it be that its true form intends to confuse those sword cultivators?"

Du Fang vaguely guessed it.

"You are really smart. This is a big deal. If you can accomplish it, not only will you get a spot in the sword competition, but as long as you can bring back the fairy flower, I will personally accept you as my disciple. You will enter the Lingxiao Sword Pavilion and participate in sword competitions with your Senior Sister Qingshuang."

Du Fang was so happy that his whole body was shaking. He had been a disciple for seven years. If he could not become an inner disciple of Lingxiao after three months, he would be completely demoted to a mortal and his sword energy would be taken away.

And now, things have finally turned around.

Since Uncle Master Xuanzhen dared to send these two juniors out, he must have a certain chance of winning.

Over the years, he has gone down the mountain to slay demons and monsters, and has survived many dangerous environments. Crossing the border to slay demons is even more of a piece of cake. What's more, the true form of the mirror demon has the magical effect of confusing people's minds. Even if they are sword cultivators of the fourth or fifth realm, they are just mortals.

Same as myself.

An inexplicable confidence filled his chest, and Du Fang said proudly, "I'll go!"

"Wait! Your realm is too low. Let Qingshuang accompany you this time. Her sword energy has just entered the fourth realm, and she is already strong enough to fight against those Yamas of the Longyuan Sword Sect.

What's more, if it fails, the master won't just sit there and watch!"

What this meant was that Uncle Xuanzhen would actually go down the mountain himself to seize that great opportunity.

Originally, the matter was only three or four points, and Uncle Xuanzhen's words seemed to give the two of them a reassurance.

"Uncle Master, when are we going to set off?" Du Fang asked immediately. He was already a little impatient.

Xuanzhen turned around and glanced at the baby lying in the path of the Qiankun Pure Qi, and said:

"There is no time to lose, get down the mountain now!"

"it is good!"

Just as Du Fang was about to raise his sword, Xuanzhen warned him:

"Don't let the people from the Longyuan Sword Sect see your attire and recognize you as people from Lingxiao Mountain. If they see you, kill them immediately without mercy. Don't let the news leak out and let the Lord of Longyuan know!"

"Disciple knows!"

"Go!"

While flying on the sword, Du Fang deliberately kept a certain distance from Li Qingshuang. Such a beautiful woman was being stared at by countless disciples of Lingxiao Mountain. If he was seen flying with her, this good fortune would definitely bring him countless troubles.

The journey of more than 300 miles was completed in just half an hour with the help of the flying sword, and they had already reached the ancient town of Cangyun.

Cangyun Ancient Town is bustling with restaurants and hotels.

This is an important transportation route where Zhongzezhou and Chixiaozhou are adjacent to each other.

As soon as they arrived at the town, Li Qingshuang immediately asked:

"Junior Brother Du Fang, how can we find the mirror monster?"

"Let's not go looking for it, just wait for it to come to us!"

Li Qingshuang opened her cherry lips in surprise, "When you went down the mountain to exorcise demons before, did you wait for them to come to you?"

"Correct!"

Li Qingshuang was a little confused about this outer disciple in front of him, who was only at the second level.

Her master had sent her undercover in the Longyuan Sword Sect. This time, she retrieved the corpse of Xuannv. Although it was laborious, it was very smooth. Secondly, she was studying in the Lingxiao Sword Pavilion. Apart from having a higher level of cultivation than him, she knew nothing about the other experiences and lessons from the people down the mountain, especially about slaying ghosts and eliminating demons.

"How are we supposed to wait for it to come? Just stand here and wait?"

"Of course not!" Du Fang was a little amused.

He liked to wait because he was afraid of places with big monsters, which were extremely dangerous. His cultivation was too low, and he had always killed monsters alone in the past. Once he was trapped, he had no chance of winning.

So what I like most is to lure out ghosts and monsters.

In the past few years since he came down the mountain, he has collected a lot of good things, and he has become like a Maoshan Taoist priest who catches ghosts and exorcises evil spirits.

If it weren't for his identity as a disciple of the Lingxiao Mountain Sword Sect, even if he was expelled from the mountain sect in the future, he would still be able to make a living with this skill.

Du Fang took out his package and found a false beard, a yellow Taoist robe, a peach wood sword, glutinous rice, an inkwell and other items to ward off evil spirits.

Li Qingshuang watched him pull out the items one by one and asked in confusion, "Isn't this something to catch ghosts?"

"Senior Sister, you don't understand. Ghosts and monsters are actually the same. Ghosts are born from Yin Qi, and monsters are born from Jing Qi. These two things, after all, are actually the same thing. The more powerful monsters are basically contaminated with Yin Qi, and the same is true for the more powerful ghosts!"

"You're all right. So how can we make the Mirror Demon come to our house?"

Du Fang didn't answer her. Instead, he asked, "Senior Sister Qingshuang, you are the most gifted person in the Purple Spirit Pagoda. Have you reached the fourth level of swordsmanship?"

"I just reached the fourth level of sword cultivation not long ago!"

"That mirror monster is also a fourth-level monster. I've lured it here. Are you sure you can kill it?"

Li Qingshuang hesitated a bit and said, "I've never killed a demon before..."

Du Fang spat softly in his heart and cursed in his mind: "This is so unlucky, sending a useless person here, this Master Xuanzhen is so unreasonable!"

But for the sake of his reputation, he didn't dare show it. The person standing in front of him was the goddess admired by countless young disciples of Lingxiao Mountain. If he offended her, he would be doomed from then on.
