Chapter 297 Harvest
The door of the tomb was tightly closed, and the dark wind seemed to be absent, seeping directly into the bottom of my heart. A pressure as huge as a mountain came from above, and the lights in the main tomb chamber were dimmed.
"Did the act of opening the coffin allow the 'evil ghost' to escape the suppression a little, or did it activate the seal of the entire tomb?"
Such thoughts suddenly appeared in the hearts of Meng Qi and others, as if they were isolated from the world.
They looked at each other and without thinking, they chose to return early at the same time. Anyway, the mission in Zhenwu Xinzhong was initially completed!
If you find a way out, if you encounter the former, it will be extremely dangerous. If you encounter the latter, you will not be able to get out at all. Staying in such a mausoleum for a month will be worse than dead, which is not conducive to cultivation.
A flash of blue light appeared out of thin air, and Meng Qi, Jiang Zhiwei and others disappeared into the main tomb chamber.
The dense beam of light hung down and enveloped Meng Qi. He suddenly felt a chill, and traces of black energy seeped out of his body.
The black energy disappeared quickly like snow meeting the sun, and there was a faint scream: "Yes..."
Meng Qi was shocked. When had he been possessed by the "evil ghost"? It was so unknowable that even the green lantern in front of the Buddha did not give any warning. Without the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, it would be extremely dangerous.
However, considering that the green lantern in front of the Buddha was almost completely destroyed, and the "evil ghost" was Emperor Zhenwu's evil thoughts, it is not surprising that he could achieve this level.
Apart from this, Meng Qi was not injured. After the black energy dissipated, the "seeds" of concentrated Yang energy were untied, the light beam receded, and Jiang Zhiwei and others were seen.
"We were possessed by the evil spirit's breath just now." Jiang Zhiwei's face was slightly solemn, but she was not too nervous, just a little scared, because when she found out, the "evil ghost" had already been uprooted by the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation.
"Fortunately, there is the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation." Meng Qi sighed. He is really powerful and specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases.
At this time, the calm voice of the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation sounded:
"The mission of Zhenwu Suspicion Tomb has ended early. Should you choose to leave, or should you stay here and practice the Reincarnation Talisman for the remaining time?"
Hey, there is such a good thing! Without exception, Meng Qi and others chose to practice.
"This mission is really short." Jiang Zhiwei first calmed down her fear of being possessed by an evil spirit.
Because there was plenty of time, everyone was not in a hurry to redeem.
Meng Qi chewed his teeth and said: "The first step of a series of tasks is relatively simple, with low rewards and low risks. Although there are variables, it still basically conforms to this rule."
"Well, if we didn't have the magic of changing the sky and striking the earth, maybe we would have gone more smoothly and less nervously. The real danger lies in the silent possession of evil spirits, and with the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation, we don't need to worry." Jiang Zhiwei Nod in agreement.
If Meng Qi hadn't tried the magic of transforming the sky and striking the earth, the evil ghost wouldn't even have shown up, and the same goes for Huangfu Tao, who is at the level of exterior scenes. Everyone faced Huang Gang and other living dead who were only half a step closer to the strength of exterior scenes. Meng Qi himself could It can be dealt with, or in other words, everyone can work together to complete it when they first get the black fur, which is more in line with the concept of the first step in a chain of tasks.
Ruan Yushu's expression was cold, and he looked at his shoulder from time to time, as if he was afraid that another evil ghost would suddenly appear there: "Even if there is a change caused by the magic of changing the sky and striking the earth, there is actually no danger, and I am not too nervous."
Except the evil ghost is a bit scary...
"Yes, it feels strange. The tension comes and goes." Qi Zhengyan breathed out expressionlessly.
This is indeed the case. Along the way, everyone's tension disappeared as soon as it rose, without the depression and fear of marching in the tomb of Emperor Zhenwu.
For example, after discovering a zombie that was close to the level of a half-step outdoor scene, he immediately recognized that it was similar to the Immanent Life and Death Sect, which could be defeated by transforming the sky and striking the earth; for example, after seeing a message about a ghost here, he soon discovered the Zhenlong Terrace and deduced that The evil ghost is suppressed; for example, after encountering the living dead in an outdoor scene, you quickly realize that he is keeping his hands, releasing water, and feeding moves; for example, when your memory fades in the fog, you are reminded and confirmed that the evil ghost cannot take action himself.
In addition to being able to return at any time, the only tense moment was in front of the main tomb, when many living dead attacked. The rest of the time, the tension just started and then subsided quickly. In short, it was more in line with the description of the first step of the serial mission. It was relatively simple and not dangerous. Big, the harvest is also low.
"Where should I go to find the Xuanwu Pendant?" The past has passed, and it is a less dangerous task. Except for some message murals in the Zhenwu Tomb that need to be remembered, Meng Qi has forgotten it and started to think about the clues for the second step. , "Could it be somewhere else inside the mausoleum?"
Jiang Zhiwei pondered for a moment and said: "They should have been taken out of the Zhenwu Suspicious Tomb. It is impossible for the living dead to be born with such strong strength. Huangfu Tao obviously began to practice Zhengfa after comprehending the thunder marks. If it is completed in the tomb, , in the state of 'physical death', it will not grow, it will only rot, and it is impossible to practice normal skills. "
"They should have entered the mausoleum, had an adventure, then left, practiced on location, and finally returned to the mausoleum and became the living dead because of the possession of the evil ghost's breath." Qi Zhengyan judged, "If we don't have the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation, This should be their fate.”
Ruan Yushu said calmly: "Even if there is no master of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, as long as the attack does not occur immediately, you can still detect the possession of evil spirits when you meet an expert."
The expert she calls is at least the master level.
Meng Qi nodded and said: "In other words, it is very likely that one of the living dead wore Xuanwu out of the mausoleum as a family heirloom. According to the fact that the true meaning of the thunder marks will dissipate after being understood, the first one to enter the main tomb chamber The living dead must be Huangfu Tao, we have to start with him, um, Jiuxiang World, Jushen Villa."
Everyone's words and words slowly outlined the outline of the matter.
"If you don't take any of the living dead, you can consider the place where you can get the black fur." Jiang Zhiwei changed the topic, "If you can draw an internal road map and know the Zhenwu Suspect Tomb, you must have a close relationship with Emperor Zhenwu."
Meng Qi hummed: "The person involved is dead, and we won't be able to find the source of the black fur for a while. We should consider the Jiuxiang world first. I think if the series of missions continues, we will go there sooner or later..."
This is an inexplicable intuition.
Without the reincarnation talisman, everyone could not go to the Jiuxiang world for a while. After the discussion, they put the Diquan Ganoderma and "Taiyin Dangmo True Solution" into the central light pillar.
"Lingzhi from Earth Spring takes one hundred and fifty years to grow...and is worth seven hundred good deeds."
"The true solution to the Taiyin Danger Demon (with modifications), the outdoor exercises... are worth fifteen hundred meritorious deeds."
Meng Qi and others are not surprised that Diquan Ganoderma only lasts for one hundred and fifty years. The previous ones must have been taken away to refine the medicine or swallowed directly by someone who had an unexpected encounter in the tomb. As for the "True Solution to the Taiyin Demon", Even if he is an evil ghost, he will change the key points. Anyway, he and others have no intention of practicing or eating, so they will all exchange them for good deeds.
Divided equally, each person received 550 good deeds, which was considered the harvest of the first step of the series of tasks.
Meng Qi saved the necessary parts of the elixirs he obtained from the Six Sects, and exchanged them all for good deeds. The salary for more than two months would be about 400 good deeds, not too much but not too little. If the mission interval is one year , it’s worth spending your energy to collect secrets and eradicate bandits.
"Nine hundred and fifty good deeds." Meng Qi said, "There are many things happening in Jiangdong, and the clouds are treacherous, so we must be on guard. I plan to exchange for a large return pill and practice for two months to stabilize the seven orifices and initially adjust the inner world. "
Fifty is left to spare.
Jiang Zhiwei exchanged the things he had collected during this period, which totaled nine hundred good deeds. Hearing this, he said happily: "I will also exchange the Great Return Pill and two months for us to practice together."
Everyone has not yet fully digested what they exchanged last time. What they need most is time. Now that there is this opportunity, Jiang Zhiwei will certainly not let it go.
Moreover, without her guidance, it would be a bit difficult for Meng Qi to become a "flying immortal" within three months, even if he had already shed his mortal body.
Meng Qi suddenly felt warm in his heart, this is the friendship between life and death!
Most of Qi Zhengyan's belongings were prepared for his travels, and he was not in a hurry to exchange them for good deeds. The rest only amounted to a few dozen: "In this case, I will give it two months, otherwise with the current strength, I will not be able to reach Jiangdong." A little bit unsure.”
His seven orifices were not yet stable, and he was far from being able to adjust his inner world, so he planned to practice hard with Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei, and exchange the remaining good deeds for various things to assist his practice.
Ruan Yushu frowned: "Me too."
The elixir in her mustard ring can still be used for the next mission, so there is no advantage for the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation, and the remaining one hundred and fifty good deeds have not been used.
"Isn't it a waste to keep so much?" Meng Qi asked subconsciously.
Ruan Yushu didn't even raise his eyes and said coldly: "Can you be able to live without food in three months?"
Meng Qi suddenly became speechless. Fortunately, he had retained fifty good deeds.
After everyone returned to their rooms to settle down, Jiang Zhiwei found Meng Qi first and asked directly: "Do you plan to adjust the inner world based on the Golden Bell or the Eight-nine Mysterious Techniques?"
"Of course it's the Eighty-nine Mysterious Techniques." Meng Qi answered without hesitation.
Jiang Zhiwei chuckled: "As I thought, according to the description of the Eight-nine Mysterious Skills, I think its focus is not on strength, physical strength, or change, but on the clear mind and nature hidden behind it."
"Ah?" Meng Qi was a little confused. He just practiced cultivation, but he didn't think much about the Eight-nine Mysterious Techniques.
Jiang Zhi smiled slightly: "Seeing one's nature clearly is a Taoist teaching. For Buddhism, it is one's own Buddha nature."
She paused: "The Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills are about control and transformation. If you practice to an extremely deep level and become Senior Brother Qi, your body, breath, behavior, habits, and unique soul characteristics will be the same as him, and outsiders will be able to tell the difference. ?"
"No." Meng Qi was still very confident in the transformational power of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique.
Jiang Zhiwei nodded slightly: "Then on the other hand, if you see someone whose body, breath, behavior, habits and soul's unique characteristics are consistent with mine, can you be sure that it's not me?"
Meng Qi's expression suddenly turned serious: "No."
Jiang Zhiwei's expression became solemn: "So, which one is true and which one is false? The characteristics seen by the eyes, the sounds heard by the ears, and the traces felt by the mind are all subject to their own limitations and external influences. We cannot get the full picture. Whatever you gain is bound by the body, mind, and heaven and earth.”
"In Buddhist terms, everything you see is a false combination of causes and conditions and is not real. All the phenomena you see are non-phases. Therefore, if you can see through external interference and your own shackles, you can see your own Buddha nature. Eighty-nine Xuan Gong seeks the true method through change. If you want to adjust the inner world, you must consider this aspect. "
Considering that Meng Qi was a monk, she replaced some of the sayings in the Taishang Sword Sutra with Buddhist terms.
"...I didn't expect you, Zhiwei, to have such a high level of xinxing." Meng Qi was silent for a while and sighed.
Jiang Zhiwei held back her laughter: "I don't even understand it at all. Most of it was what Master said when he explained the 'Tai Shang Sword Sutra' to me. I saw that there are similarities in the Eight Nine Mysterious Techniques, so I would like to remind you."
"Although Jiang Hengchuan and others are in a better state than you and can unite heaven and man, the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills are also ever-changing and are good at avoiding disasters. If you are in harmony with heaven and earth, you will not be able to hide yourself under the unity of heaven and man. At that time, at least in terms of knowing the enemy, they will not be better than you, and they can even create false impressions and plant 'flaws' to defeat the enemy. "
Phew, Meng Qi let out a breath, this is a peerless magical skill!
…………
Outside Maoling City, in a hidden place, blue light flashed, and Meng Qi appeared.
His aura was a bit ethereal and unpredictable, but then it calmed down without any abnormalities.
"Finally, I have mastered the flying immortal." Meng Qi looked at Maoling City from a distance with a smile on his face, but the biggest gain is not this!
