Qixuan

【Xuantian Palace in Qiyun Mountain, Zhongzhou】

Ji Chen raised his head from a pile of books, scratched his messy hair, and then put the book on his face with a dull face, "God, why is it so difficult!"

With a flick of her wrist, Lang Yue threw a book over and broke Ji Chen's wailing, "Stop howling, it's so awful."

Ji Chen took down the book, pointed to a section on it, and said, "I can't find the double stars, but you can see that it says that the sun star grows with hibiscus wood, and the lunar star grows with laurel wood. Replace it?"

"I'm afraid that those two pieces of wood won't be able to support such a huge power of stars." Langyue struck mercilessly: "Duanyu is an ancestor witch, and the Twelve Capitals Heavenly Demon Banner he refined is comparable to that of a counterfeit like you." Things are a hundred times stronger."

Ji Chen slumped on the chair and looked at Langyue, "Don't hit me like this, it will take a while to resist, buy me more time."

"What do you want to do?" Lang Yue raised her head and stared at Ji Chen.

Ji Chen smiled mysteriously, shook the book in his hand and said, "Of course I'm looking for hibiscus trees and laurel trees. You see, hibiscus trees grow in the East China Sea, in Dongzhou, huh! I can go to the little beauty's Xuanming Island I went shopping."

Langyue frowned, he didn't like Ji Chen's temperament of mentioning Yan Heng in three sentences, "Where's the laurel tree?"

Ji Chen flipped through the book and said: "Miaodu, Nanzhou, ran away to Duanyu's lair."

Langyue asked: "Didn't he give you his Yuechen? Why not?"

Ji Chen slammed his chin on the table, and said a little weakly: "You said that Shenmu can't bear the huge power of stars, how long can his sword last?"

After hearing this, Lang Yue lowered her head.

Mo Yue was quiet for a while, then Lang Yue said, "Actually, I think this person is very familiar, I seem to have seen him somewhere."

Ji Chen said without raising his head: "Of course, we met in Beiyan City."

"No." Langyue vetoed, "It wasn't in Beiyan City, but when I was unconscious, I should have seen him."

Ji Chen lowered his face and responded.

"Don't you find it strange?"

Ji Chen got up quickly, he straightened his clothes, "I'm going to Dongzhou, are you going?"

"go."

Maybe this will make it clear why the Langya Sword appeared in Beiyan City. Yan Heng did more things in private than he imagined.

Thinking of this, Ji Chen slapped himself across the face, startling Lang Yue next to him.

Before Langyue could ask, Ji Chen explained by himself: "It's okay, let's go."

Dongzhou is located in the eastern part of the mainland of Kyushu. There are seas everywhere, and it is vast. Looking around, the dark clouds are overwhelming, and it seems that there is not even a small boat between the sky and the earth.

Ji Chen and Langyue stood on the only pier between Zhongzhou and Dongzhou, looking around.

The huge wind rolled up the waves and licked the hem of the two people's clothes.

"It's probably too much to fly over. We don't even know the exact location of Xuanming Island." Langyue twisted his clothes, and the sea water dripped on the pier, and he took a step back.

Langyue hated this damp breath.

"Yan Heng said that he sealed Xuanming Island." Ji Chen wanted to take out the umbrella from the ring and give it to Lang Yue, but when he touched his bare fingers, there was nothing on it, and then he remembered that he gave the ring to Yan Heng , so he propped up a barrier to enclose Lang Yue and himself in it.

"Even if we run out of real energy, we can't find Xuanming Island."

Lang Yue asked, "What can you do?"

Ji Chen smiled and said: "Ancestor is waiting!" After speaking, he flew out of the barrier.

Ji Chen took out the Yuechen that he carried with him, and he slowly poured the demonic energy into it. At first, there was still traces of blood energy emitting from Yuechen's sword, that is, in the blink of an eye, a soft and bright blue light bloomed.

The dark clouds receded in all directions as if in fear, the sun came out and landed on the sea, only a foot away, the strong wind stopped, and the huge waves extinguished.

Blossoming red lotus rose up from the bottom of the sea and landed in a sunny place.

A giant ship appeared at the end of Red Lotus.

Ji Chen fell back to Lang Yue and took Yue Chen back, then turned his head and said, "Let's go."

Every time you take a step, the red lotus behind will quickly wither, wither and fall into the sea.

The shark stood on the deck wearing a blue veil, and when he saw the two people boarding the boat, he bent down and saluted, "I have seen the distinguished guest, the master specially ordered to take the distinguished guest to fetch the hibiscus wood."

Ji Chen replied, "Thank you."

The cracks in the dark clouds in the sky closed together, the wind was strong, and the thunder and lightning illuminated the indigo sea like cobwebs.

The merman pinched his fingers and recited a formula, and a beam of brilliance rose into the sky and exploded like fireworks, enveloping the giant ship in it.

"Guests, please take good care of it. The sky has changed, and I am afraid that the great power will fall."

There was a mournful cry from the bottom of the sea, which made people dizzy. The sea was swept into the sky by the strong wind, and the huge waves came violently.

The giant ship was motionless in the sea.

"We're heading to Xuanming Island now."

Looking at the surrounding scene, Langyue murmured: "The sky in the mainland of Kyushu has finally changed."

Ji Chen asked: "Ancestor, can you know who it is?"

Lang Yue shook her head, "Not sure."

A thick bell sounded from far to near, and merged with the mournful cry from the bottom of the sea, making people feel desolate in their hearts.

Ji Chen listened carefully for a while, and said with some uncertainty: "This is... the death knell of Qixuan Mountain?!"

Before Ji Chen could confirm, the giant ship sank slowly into the bottom of the sea, surrounded by countless sharks, each of them spit out a bubble to cover the surface of the barrier, making it unreal to see inside and out.

But in an instant, an isolated island appeared on the sea.

The sea is blue and calm, and the sun is shining brightly in the sky.

It turns out that the truth and falsehood just now are just the boundary between the world and fantasy.

However, the death knell is real.

The merman invites Ji Chen and Langyue to go ashore, and a huge hibiscus tree stands in the center of Xuanming Island, and red hibiscus flowers bloom in the wind.

"This distinguished guest will take the hibiscus wood." Yuren pointed to Ji Chen, "As for this distinguished guest, please come with me, we will treat you well."

Lang Yue glanced at Ji Chen, then followed the shark.

Ji Chen walked alone to the luxuriant forest. The canopy of the trees covered the sky and the sun, and the sunlight passed through the gaps and cast on the ground, casting mottled shadows of the trees. Emerald green vines grew along with the trees.

There is no need for Ji Chen to open the way himself, a winding path appears at his feet, hidden in the depths of the forest.

Ji Chen smiled softly, he couldn't imagine that Yan Heng would have the leisure to make these things, but thinking of the glistening fireflies at the foot of Beiyan Mountain, Ji Chen felt relieved.

After walking for about a stick of incense, Ji Chen felt that his vision suddenly opened up.

The hibiscus tree grows so high that a hundred people cannot embrace it.

It was rare for Ji Chen to see some living creatures, but these living creatures ran away when they saw him.

Ji Chen didn't pay too much attention to these little things, he was still thinking about how to take this huge hibiscus tree away, he didn't bring the ring or anything else.

The hibiscus tree seemed to have sensed it, and the vines on its hanging branches tied Ji Chen up, and pulled it over empty-handed, as if accusing him of wanting to take away the giant hibiscus tree.

Ji Chen struggled a bit at first, but the vines of the Shenmu became tighter and tighter and almost broke his ribs, so Ji Chen had to give up the struggle in order to save his life.

There is a natural tree hole on the trunk of the hibiscus tree that can only be passed by one person. The vines threw Ji Chen in front of the tree hole and shrank back.

Ji Chen rubbed his butt that hurt from the fall, and complained loudly: "How dare you treat me like this, be careful, I will tell the little beauty to cut you down."

The vines pulled down upon hearing the sound, Ji Chen quickly hid in the tree hole, he patted his chest and said, "Fortunately, I hid quickly, such an old tree, why is it so irritable?"

There is really no cave in the tree hole, one side of the world, you can look up and see the luxuriant tree crown, filled with the fragrance of hibiscus flowers.

Ji Chen regretted coming in, there were all spirit cards, big and small, and all the spirit cards of the great powers of Kyushu were here.

Ji Chen was overjoyed, playing cards together emotionally.

In the center of the tree hole is a small platform with a hibiscus tree placed on it.

Ji Chen stepped forward and picked up the hibiscus tree, there was a piece of paper under the hibiscus tree, the writing on it was very familiar to Ji Chen, it was written to him by Yan Heng.

May your martial arts prosper, give it a go, no matter success or failure, wait for your return.

Ji Chen smiled and folded the paper and put it in his clothes, close to his heart.

Life is long and short, no matter when you are young or when you grow up, there are always some people who are willing to wait for you.

Ji Chen flicked up his clothes, knelt down in front of the spirit tablet, and kowtowed three times, "I voluntarily took over this battle. The devil is a god who fell, and his body is destroyed by death. If I am unlucky, I hope that the spirits in the sky will bless me. The way of heaven treats him kindly, Chen has been alone all his life, he has never been bound by anything, now he has only one person in his heart, I only wish him well, that's all."

Ji Chen got up and walked out without looking back.

Lang Yue waited for Ji Chen at the place where he landed before, and only asked when he approached, "Did you get it?"

"Well, I got it." Ji Chen handed the hibiscus wood in his hand to Lang Yue, with an extremely embarrassed smile on his face.

Langyue didn't bother to argue with him, "Where are you going now? Miaodu?"

Seeing that Langyue ignored him, Ji Chen restrained himself a little, he shook his head and said, "I won't go, let's go to Qixuan Mountain."

"Alright."

Ji Chen was startled and said, "What about you? Are you afraid that Ling Shuangzi won't recognize you, and you still pretend to be a child to deceive people because of your age? Don't look at Ling Shuangzi who is so old, and a baby in swaddling clothes in front of you Almost, no, it should be more exaggerated."

Lang Yue raised her eyebrows, "Are you finished?"

"Ah."

Then Ji Chen ate Langyue's scabbard, hit the head, and the world spun, Ji Chen thought that Xuanming Island with stars in the daytime was still very beautiful.

The heavy snow in Xizhou was as big as a goose feather, and the sky and the earth were so pure that it broke a lot of green bamboos on the ladder.

White silk is hung above and below the Miaoyin door, and the coffin and coffin are placed in the center of the main hall.

Most of the disciples of Miaoyinmen wear hemp and filial piety and stand quietly on both sides.

With the Langya Sword pinned to his waist, Ji Chen took the incense from Ling Xuanyin and slipped to Yan Heng's side after saying goodbye.

Yan Heng is also quite spiritual, standing in an inconspicuous corner.

Ji Chen dragged Yan Heng and ran out, so as not to stay inside and be considered as a cat crying and a mouse pretending to be merciful.

The two randomly found a place that could cover the snow.

Ji Chen asked: "What happened?"

"What happened last night, Master Uncle's golden core was dissected, and all the blood was drained." Yan Heng reached out and wiped the snow off Ji Chen's shoulders. He sniffed and asked, "Would you like to go to Xuanming Island?" gone?"

"Your enchantment is well designed, I can't even tell what's real and what's not." Ji Chen leaned into Yan Heng's arms, stretched out his hand and pinched his face.

Yan Heng asked: "Have you got it?"

Ji Chen nodded, and patted his heart, "I also received a love letter from someone."

Yan Heng smiled without saying a word.

Ji Chen shook his head, his face sank, he grabbed Yan Heng's lapel, and pretended to ask: "Say, how did you know?! I don't remember that I told you that last time I was afraid that you would get angry. Didn't ask you."

Yan Heng put his arms around Ji Chen's waist.

Ji Chen withdrew, "Be honest, keep your hands away, don't try to use beauty tricks."

"I guessed it, you are too stupid." Yan Heng nodded Ji Chen's forehead, "Just ask me how to replace the sun star and the lunar star, can't I guess?"

"All right, all right, you're smart!" Ji Chen stood aside leaning on the porch pillar, staring at the snow outside with fascination.

Yan Heng reached out to hug Ji Chen, "I'm cold."

"Huh?" Ji Chen turned his head to look at Yan Heng, he couldn't believe what he heard just now, what did Yan Heng say? !

"I'm cold." Yan Heng repeated.

The ripe berries are full of juice, and now they are poked, and the juice bursts out, and the sweet and cloying taste is everywhere.

Why did you suddenly become a child?Isn't it me who usually rolls like a baby?With this in mind, Ji Chen reached out and hugged Yan Heng.

Ji Chen suddenly raised his head and said: "You can't be Mu Qiong who came out to punish me, right?"

Yan Heng kissed Ji Chen's ear, and denied, "No."

"Why do I think it looks like this?" Ji Chen shrank his neck, opened a little distance, and said doubtfully, "You don't usually look like this."

"Why do you believe it?"

A light cough broke the atmosphere between the two.

Xuan Qingzi and Ling Shuang walked over from the end of the corridor.

Yan Heng let go of Ji Chen.

"Uncle Master, Master."

"Venerable Ling Shuangzi, Venerable Xuan Qingzi."

Ling Shuangzi said: "The Mozun seems to be a little lazy these days."

"Don't say that, I'm here to inform you." Ji Chen leaned back on the porch pillar again, "Can you tell me what Fairy Miaoyin's wound looks like? It can't be the Phoenix Claw, right?"

Xuan Qingzi said: "Exactly."

"Impossible!" Ji Chen shook his head and vetoed, he stood up straight, "I pumped Jiufeng's spine some time ago, let alone standing up, it is difficult for her to move even if she wants to."

The four fell into an eerie silence.

Ling Shuangzi and Xuan Qingzi felt that there was no need for Ji Chen to lie, because it would be of no benefit to him.

Ji Chen looked at Yan Heng suddenly, "Little beauty, is the traitor you mentioned in Nanxiang City...has it happened?"

All three eyes were on Yan Heng, waiting for his answer.

Yan Heng nodded, "Qi Ziqing."

Ji Chen wasn't too surprised, the answer was reasonable, in fact, he was suspicious of Gu Zichen and Liu Xiaoli at the beginning, but when Liu Xiaoli said that Yan Heng was an envoy from hell, he naturally ruled her out.

Because with Yan Heng's cautious character, it is impossible to tell an unknown person his hidden identity, and in turn, Liu Xiaoli may be Yan Heng's person.

And Gu Zichen didn't know what he was playing.

Xuan Qingzi said in shock: "Impossible, Ziqing is a good boy."

Ji Chen said: "Maybe it's bad enough to form an alliance with Qiyun Mountain."

Ling Shuangzi recruited a young disciple casually, and said in a deep voice, "Call Qie Ziqing to come!"

Less than half a moment later, the little disciple came running over in a hurry, he took a breath and said: "It's not good, Master Teacher, Fellow Daoist Xie is gone."

Ji Chen smiled and said, "It's gone? Absconded in fear of crime? It's really a crime."

Xuan Qingzi asked: "Is the evidence conclusive?"

Yan Heng said: "It's mostly guesswork, but it's probably close to ten."

Ji Chen shrugged helplessly, "No, Venerable, you are too... Forget it, the ghost king is going to attack you at the Sword Sacrifice Conference. I don't know how the Venerables prepared?"

He seemed to understand that both Xuan Qingzi and his second uncle were hiding from the world, they were essentially different, Xuan Qingzi was avoiding the ways of the world, Zhou Tianxing was avoiding the coldness of the world.

Ling Shuangzi pondered for a moment and said: "To tell you the truth, the mountain protection formation in Qixuan Mountain can be exchanged for killing formations, but junior sister Daoyue God sells it. This mountain protection formation needs five yuan of mountain suppression orders to be activated at the same time, and I can't find it for a while. replacement."

Yan Heng said: "Why don't you let Senior Brother Yuan come? Senior Sister Yue is also fine."

Xuan Qingzi nodded and said: "You can try it, but their cultivation base is not enough, so they may not last long."

"A little while is enough, you don't need a lot of time." Ji Chen waved his hand, turned and left.

Xuan Qingzi raised his voice, "What do you mean?"

"On the surface." Ji Chen said without turning his head.

Xuan Qingzi looked at Yan Heng.

Yan Heng just shook his head.
