Chapter 242 Luofu (second update)
The blood-colored carriage came quickly from the horizon and caught up behind Bai Yunzhou in the blink of an eye.
In the past few days, Shi Xuan and the others have met a lot of strange casual cultivators, because they all have the same purpose - to go to the Luofu Sect to participate in the Golden Elixir Ceremony. However, among these casual cultivators, few of them have seen the huge and majestic Baiyunzhou. The flying magic weapon also felt that its owner was not an ordinary person, so no one dared to come up to entangle it and hurried past. As for those knowledgeable people who could not recognize the famous magic weapon of the Penglai sect, they did not dare to approach it. Don't dare to come up and make friends.
Therefore, those outer disciples were just surprised by the eight blood dragons and did not think there was anything wrong with the bloody chariot. They thought it would pass by soon. However, when the bloody chariot was on par with the white cloud boat, it suddenly slowed down. He gained speed and kept pace with Baiyun Zhou.
When they saw this unusual performance, several disciples were startled and quickly stood beside Shi Xuan.
There were eight dull guards in red armor standing on the shaft outside the bloody carriage, and behind them was an ordinary-looking middle-aged charioteer driving the eight blood dragons. In the extremely spacious carriage, there were a total of forty-eight There are maids, some are dancing, some are playing the piano, some are making tea, some are studying ink... Eight of them are serving a young man wearing a snow-white Taoist robe, and some are squeezing his back. Some people beat his feet...
The young master looked very delicate, with a smile at the corner of his mouth. He tilted his head and said in a soft and calm voice: "I wonder which fellow Taoist from the Penglai sect is here?" In stark contrast to his voice, his The eyes were as dead as the eyes of a stone statue.
Shi Xuan was on guard in private and took a step forward. Although he wasn't too worried about what the Blood Demon Sect's Jindan monk would do outside the Luofu Sect, the Blood Demon Sect's monks were going crazy intermittently. Those who are famous far and wide are not afraid of ten thousand, but afraid of the worst.
But before Shi Xuan had time to report his name, the young man chuckled: "It turns out to be fellow Taoist Shi Xuan, very good, very interesting." There seemed to be a little crazy flame ignited in the dead eyes, and then in Shi Xuan Before he could react, he clapped his hands lightly, and the bloody car became faster. In the blink of an eye, it surpassed the Baiyun Boat and rushed towards the Luofu Mountain.
"Uncle Shi, who is this?" Luo Banshan asked doubtfully. Judging from the young master's behavior, he seemed to know Uncle Shi, but Uncle Shi didn't seem to know him very well.
Shi Xuan smiled slightly and said: "If I guessed correctly, it should be Tianluo Blood Network Ning Wuque." The monks of the Blood Demon Sect are cold-blooded by nature. After so many years, other Jindan masters respect their status and will never treat themselves like this. With such a performance, only Ning Wuque, who had gone to intercept Duan Qingqing and Wang Qinian when the four of them had gone together to intercept him, and returned to his clan in embarrassment, would have considered it a shame and a great humiliation and would have remembered it in his heart.
When Ning Wuque achieved high-grade golden elixir a few years ago, the sect considered the entanglement between himself and the Blood Demon Sect, so they never thought of sending him to celebrate, but they didn't expect that they would encounter him today.
Not only Luo Banshan and Tang Youqiu, but also the other eight younger outer sect disciples had heard about Shi Xuan’s famous battle in which he killed Shura Blood Knife Duan Ruthless, so they asked with a worried look: "Uncle Shi, he Will it?"
Shi Xuan smiled and shook his head: "If he dares to attack and kill me on the way to congratulate us from the Luofu Sect, then the senior masters of the Luofu Sect will definitely take action to wipe him out. This kind of reasoning can kill a bloody person. They will not let go of the opportunity of the Demon Sect’s high-grade golden elixir, and the Blood Demon Sect can only admit it with pinched noses.”
Seeing that they seemed a little confused, Shi Xuan continued to explain: "You must know that the Blood Demon Sect is crazy, not a lunatic. Ning Wuque was in a hurry to leave just now because he was afraid that he could not suppress the murderous intention in his heart, so he gave his life to the Luofu Sect. On the contrary, you, I will probably be troubled by the disciples of the Blood Demon Sect, but be prepared." In fact, Shi Xuan was still worried that Ning Wuque would ignore Grandmaster Jindan's honor and intercept him on his way back, so he planned to stay. Some backup.
Tang Youqiu, Luo Banshan and the eight outer disciples looked at each other. They had long been prepared for trouble. Even when they had just finished practicing the sword formation, Li Bingnan and several other disciples were eager to try, hoping that someone would come to cause trouble. Okay. Trying the power of the sword array, what they found strange was that what was revealed from Uncle Shi's words was that the senior master of the Luofu Sect could make Ning Wuque disappear into ashes. This was a top-grade golden elixir, which was already the top level of strength in their minds. , how could you say it in such an understatement? Could it be that the seniors of the Luofu sect were able to temporarily escape from seclusion?
"Okay, we will arrive at Luofu Mountain in a while. You should also tidy up your appearance." Shi Xuan lightly ordered. These disciples were out of breath during the drill just now.
Li Bingnan and others were arranging themselves while whispering. Among them, Li Bingnan said: "Have you ever heard about the time when Uncle Shi killed Shura Xue Dao Duan Qingwu? That was so exciting!" He wanted to show off his knowledge.
Jiang Nianqiao burst into laughter: "Senior Brother Li, don't talk about things that everyone knows. We all know everything about Uncle Shi's past battles." Ren Shuiyao and other disciples nodded. agree.
Li Bingnan was a little embarrassed. Zhou Banyu didn't know about it back then, so he thought that many people were like this, but he didn't expect that other classmates knew about it. He smiled coquettishly: "I just thought that this happened more than fifty years ago. At that time, many of you I’m not born yet, so I don’t know much about it, so I want to explain it to you.”
"Haha, I was not yet born at that time, but there were quite a few jade slips in the market introducing masters in the world of cultivation, and they were extremely detailed." Ren Shuiyao explained with a chuckle.
Li Bingnan was extremely depressed. As a child born into a poor family, all the spiritual stones he had saved were exchanged for decoctions or exercises or spells. How could he have the chance to buy such jade slips, which were of little use? However, his depression soon disappeared. Because under his leadership, other disciples began to discuss Shi Xuan's past battles, and he immediately joined in excitedly.
Shi Xuan stood in front of the boat, looking at the hazy Luofu Mountain in the distance, listening to the conversation of the disciples behind him, and sighed softly. Fifty-one years have passed like this. The time of practicing Taoism is really fast and long.
…………
"It's so beautiful." Jiang Nianqiao looked at Luofu Mountain not far away and sighed.
Luofu Mountain is not like Penglai Island with dozens of protruding peaks. It is a long mountain range that stretches across the southwest of the Nanman Continent. There are many spiritual peaks in the mountains, many exotic flowers and plants, and there are clear springs and flowing water everywhere. There are dead vines and ancient trees, and deep in the mountains, there are residences shrouded in light smoke and mist from time to time, which looks refreshing.
Seeing Bai Yunzhou's arrival, a young disciple wearing silver-white robes flew up, raised his hands and asked, "But senior Penglai sect is here, junior Hu Yunsong is so polite." This good-looking disciple seemed to be a monk in the Soul Stage.
Shi Xuan couldn't help but secretly lamented that the Luofu Sect was so powerful that they actually let masters of the Soul Stage serve as Taoist priests to welcome guests. However, this also made all the monks who came to attend the Golden Elixir Ceremony very satisfied, and felt that the Luofu Sect was very honorable.
"Penglai Sect Shi Xuan has met Daoist Hu here." Shi Xuan took a step forward and returned the greeting with his hands raised.
Hu Yunsong's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "It turns out that fellow Daoist Shi is here. You should be careful when you arrive at the sect. I don't know how many elders and disciples in our sect want to learn from you."
Even sects such as Yingzhou Sect, Tianhuo Sect, Netherworld Sect, whose fundamental Dharma and Zhensect magic weapon have nothing to do with flying swords, many monks choose flying swords as their natal magic weapons, not to mention the sect "Piaomiao Song Jue" In the Luofu sect, which has the True Dafa and the Pure Yang Flying Sword Invisible Sword as its magic weapon, at least 70% of the monks in the sect choose flying swords and study swordsmanship intensively.
As for Shi Xuan, if it were not for the good or bad relationship between the Luofu Sect and the Penglai Sect, as well as Shi Xuan's reputation as a ruthless person, these Luofu Sect monks would have come to challenge him a long time ago. Now that Shi Xuan himself has come to the door, they will definitely not Let this opportunity pass, and there will be no casualties on the fighting stage, so Hu Yunsong said this.
Shi Xuan also smiled and said: "I'm afraid there is a fellow Daoist Hu here, right?" Yongxiang once said something to Shi Xuan, that is, there is nothing wrong with changing the Luofu Immortal Sect to the Luofu Sword Sect. Although they are not sword cultivators, they practice It's not sword energy, but when a group of disciples go out, most of their shots are flying swords. Even the true disciples who practice "Luofu Immortal Technique" choose flying swords.
Hu Yunsong was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Shi Xuan to be so direct. Then he laughed and said: "It is indeed true. Hu dare not deny it. But Fellow Taoist Shi is not as arrogant as the rumors outside. As expected, rumors and the like cannot be believed at all."
"But Mr. Shi is here to celebrate Senior Shen's achievement of the golden elixir. I don't want to cause too much trouble. Please tell Fellow Daoist Hu that we can compete with one person at most." There are many swordsmen in the Luofu sect, and Shi Xuan is also a little itchy, but Shi Xuan is the representative The Penglai sect is here. If they keep going up to the fighting stage to compete with others, it would be too frivolous and disrespectful to the sect. So, decide on the number of people and let the Luofu sect decide who to send.
Hu Yunsong didn't see the embarrassment and nodded: "It should be so. In fact, fellow Taoist Shi is a distinguished guest, and we, as hosts, will not force you. Okay, let Hu take you, fellow Taoist Shi, to where you are staying."
Shi Xuan signaled Tang Youqiu to collect the white cloud boat, and at the same time said: "Fellow Daoist Hu, please."
Along the way, Hu Yunsong pulled Shi Xuan to talk about swordsmanship. Seeing his enthusiasm, Shi Xuan felt that if he switched to swordsmanship, he might have a better future.
After crossing several streams and several small peaks, a quiet valley appeared ahead, with a small emerald lake in it and several quiet and elegant courtyards beside the lake.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, you will be staying in the Emerald Valley these days. Hu will continue to receive guests, so I will take my leave first." Hu Yunsong was a little reluctant to leave. The discussion of swordsmanship along the way made him feel that Shi Xuan was an unparalleled person despite his great reputation. Xu Shi, many insights have broken through the fog that has troubled him for a long time.
The disciples were excitedly looking at the place they had lived in for the past few days and wanted to take a good rest, but Shi Xuan said slowly: "You can continue to practice the sword formation." Suddenly they looked bitter, they were not unwilling, but they really couldn't. Only half of the soul power has been restored.
