Yuan Ming observed it for a moment, and then intercepted a wisp of gathered wishing power. He saw that the color on it was a little less, but it was still colorful and mixed, and it was impossible to distinguish the primary and secondary.
He tried to divide the power of his wishes, but due to the insufficient level of practice in the art of asking for love, his thoughts were like stones sinking into the sea, and he received no response at all.
This was expected, and Yuan Ming did not feel disappointed. He got up and left Shura Palace and came to his room.
At this moment, he suddenly frowned and looked around, but he didn't see anything unusual inside or outside the house.
When he was confused, Yuan Ming's consciousness inadvertently sensed a small table placed in front of Nan Shangfeng next door.
I saw a dark wooden box on the table, with fancy dark red patterns engraved on it, giving it a very mysterious feeling.
Nan Shangfeng was still practicing with his eyes closed at this moment, and did not seem to notice the existence of the wooden box.
Yuan Ming frowned slightly, and immediately used his spiritual consciousness to scan the two rooms. He found nothing unusual, but he vaguely felt that someone was hiding in the room.
Yuan Ming snorted coldly in his heart, made a hand seal with his hands, and a dozen white circles of light appeared around him. It was the round light technique that illuminated everything in the two rooms.
Soon, he discovered a vague aura that was almost integrated with the ground in the southeast corner of Nan Shangfeng's room. If his round light technique had not been perfected, he would have been deceived.
Yuan Ming did not have an attack on the spot, but suddenly appeared in the next room, activating his soul power to capture the infiltrator with one blow.
"Hey, wait, don't take action, I'm——" The next moment, in the southeast corner, a male cultivator wearing a dark purple shirt appeared.
He seemed to be aware of Yuan Ming's hostility, but unfortunately as soon as he made a sound, Yuan Ming took action boldly, and the Dream Butterfly illusion shrouded him, directly pulling him into the illusion.
"Who is... Xiang Mingxuan? Fellow Taoist Wan, please be merciful, he is one of our own." Nan Shangfeng opened his eyes when he heard the noise, saw the male cultivator in purple shirt, and said hurriedly.
"One of our own?" Yuan Ming was puzzled. He looked at the male cultivator's face carefully and soon discovered that he was the person Nan Shangfeng contacted with Lingxunxiang two days ago.
"Yes, he is my good friend who agreed to come over and deliver something... Look, it's this wooden box, and inside is the innate bitter bamboo." Nan Shangfeng was extremely anxious, and glanced at the wooden box on the small table.
box, and quickly held it in front of Yuan Ming.
Yuan Ming took the wooden box and opened it slowly.
In an instant, all the distracting thoughts in his heart seemed to disappear, and an unprecedented sense of peace arose spontaneously. His mind became clear, and even his thoughts were running several times faster than usual.
He looked down and saw a four-inch long and one-inch wide green bamboo leaf lying in the wooden box. It was as crystal clear as glass and unstained by dust.
"Since I am your friend, why did you hide your head and hide your tail and sneak in on purpose?" Yuan Ming asked.
"Alas, Xiang Mingxuan has this kind of temperament. He claims to be the master of escape and concealment. He always considers himself a thieves. His favorite thing is to sneak into the forbidden areas of various sects and steal the treasures for fun. He has suffered a lot for this.
I'm wanted. I'm afraid you came here just to play a joke on me." Nan Shangfeng smiled bitterly.
"This friend of yours is quite interesting." Yuan Ming smiled after hearing this and raised his hand to put away the illusion.
"Hmm...Nan Shangfeng, where did you find such a ruthless person, not only with a strong spiritual consciousness, but also with such decisive attacks." Xiang Mingxuan recovered, was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came back to his senses, and looked at Yuan Ming's
His eyes were full of lingering fear.
"Didn't I tell you that this fellow Taoist Wan is very powerful, otherwise he would not have been able to rescue me from Black Lotus." Nan Shangfeng said with a smile and seemed a little proud.
"How much have you told him about my affairs?" Yuan Ming frowned secretly and called Nan Shangfeng.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist Wan, I didn't say a word that I shouldn't have said!" Nan Shangfeng trembled and quickly laughed.
"This fellow Taoist, Nan Shangfeng and I haven't seen each other for a long time, and there are many things I want to talk about. Look..." Xiang Mingxuan seemed to figure out something from Nan Shangfeng's attitude and said hesitantly.
Yuan Ming nodded and immediately turned around and left the room, giving them space to talk alone.
Now that the things have been obtained, the matter between him and Nan Shangfeng is generally settled. If he hadn't been curious about Wu Yu's method of exorcising the curse and wanted to follow him to see more, he could have left alone now.
"Fellow Daoist Wan, what kind of trouble did you encounter just now?" As soon as Yuan Ming walked out of the room, he saw Xuan Ye walking over quickly.
Yuan Ming thought for a moment and soon realized that he might have just used his soul power to perform an illusion and was noticed by Wu Yu, so he sent Xuan Ye over to inquire about the situation.
"It's nothing, it's just that a friend of my companion came here and there was some misunderstanding. It has been resolved." He explained with a smile.
"It's okay. We are almost ready. We can set off early the day after tomorrow." Xuan Ye nodded.
Yuan Ming agreed, and then watched Xuan Ye return to Zhuxuan to resume his life.
…
Two days later.
Just after dawn, there was a knock on Yuan Ming's door.
"Fellow Taoist Wan, it's time to set off." Xuan Ye's voice came from outside.
Yuan Ming, who had been waiting for a long time, opened the door and saw Wu Yu and Xuan Ye standing outside the room, looking ready.
Their clothes have also been changed into styles that are more convenient for outdoor activities. Wu Yu, who was previously wearing a long skirt, now wears brocade trousers, with his long hair tied up high, and he looks smart again.
temperament.
"Fellow Taoist's new friend, isn't he with us?" Xuan Ye asked immediately after seeing only Yuan Ming and Nan Shangfeng.
"He has personal matters to deal with. He just came to deliver something and is not traveling with us." Nan Shangfeng explained.
Xuan Ye nodded slightly and turned to look at Wu Yu.
"In that case, let's set off immediately." Wu Yu seemed to have expected this and said softly.
The group of people immediately left the mansion through the back door and headed out of the city.
In order to prevent being surrounded by admiring people, Wu Yu always used illusions to cover his figure after going out, not wanting to be seen.
Yuan Ming noticed this and suddenly realized that being famous was sometimes not a good thing.
"The trip is not far, but there are many monsters in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains. I still need to reserve strength to help fellow Daoist Nan break the curse. If there is an attack on the way, I am afraid I will need to trouble fellow Daoist Wan and Xuan Ye to solve it together." After leaving the city,
Wu Yu seemed to feel much more at ease and said.
"Of course." Yuan Ming agreed immediately.
"However, I would like to ask fellow Taoist to know one thing in advance. Since you are traveling with me, you must not kill at will unless you have to. If you encounter monsters attacking you, you only need to subdue them." Wu Yu paused and warned again.
road.
"Why is this?" Yuan Ming was a little confused.
"God has the virtue of good life, not to mention that all things in the world are equal, whether humans, monsters, or even demons, they are just living beings that exist between heaven and earth. There is not much difference. They should coexist peacefully with each other.
Ge Zhilu, this is the way to balance." Wu Yu said softly, his eyes like water, clear and sincere.
"Since fellow shamans have said this, I should obey it. If I encounter an enemy, I will only use illusion to subdue him." After hearing this, Yuan Ming felt that this woman's view was too idealistic, but after all, he had a request from someone and could not refute it, so he agreed.
.
Wu Yu nodded slightly, with a faint smile on his lips.
Then the group of people set up the escape light and galloped towards the depths of the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range.
…
In the first day or two, except for some second- and third-level monsters that occasionally appeared, there were no other abnormalities, and the few people moved forward quite quickly.
However, after the third day, the peaks in front suddenly became sparse, replaced by a tall and dense forest, with any tree hundreds of feet high, and the aura of heaven and earth became rich.
"Be careful, the area ahead is the sphere of influence of the Mudrill Clan of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom." Xuan Ye said.
"Didn't I say that the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons is deep in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains?" Yuan Ming asked with some confusion.
During this time, he crammed in all kinds of information about the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters.
The forces of the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom are spread throughout the depths of the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountains, and are very powerful.
Different from the demon clan in the Far East, the demon clan in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains has a strong cohesion and is distributed in the depths of the mountains in the form of tribes. The leader of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom is the Queen of Ten Thousand Demons. Her strength is said to have reached the peak of the Dharma, far away from the Mahayana period.
It's only half a step away.
There are five demon kings under the Queen of Ten Thousand Demons, each of whom is a giant demon with tremendous strength. Following them are thirty-six tribes and countless demon soldiers and generals.
The human monks used nineteen cities including Baidi City as a line of defense to resist the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom and prevent it from invading other cities in the Zhongzhou Continent. The Mudrill Clan is one of the thirty-six tribes.
"Yes, this is just a peripheral force of the Mudrill Tribe. There is a high probability that they will not encounter the Mudrill Demon Clan, but to be on the safe side, be careful." Xuan Ye said and recited a spell.
Traces of green appeared on his skin, just like the meridians of a plant, and the aura around him quickly converged, and soon disappeared completely.
At the same time, Wu Yu also activated some secret method to conceal his aura, and the aura all over his body also suddenly disappeared.
Seeing this, Yuan Ming used the art of transformation, and his whole person became transparent.
Nan Shangfeng was cursed, and soon after entering the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains, he could no longer hold on. Yuan Ming had already pulled him into the illusion and brought him into the Shura Palace.
The three of them continued to move forward, instead of flying away, they shuttled through the jungle.
Traveling deep in the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountains, no one would dare to fly in the air unless they had overwhelming strength, otherwise they would be a living target for the monsters lurking in the jungle.
Yuan Ming remained in the virtual state and moved straight forward in the forest. He did not avoid the trees when he encountered them, but passed directly through them without making any sound.
Compared with Yuan Ming's coolness, Wu Yu and Xuan Ye were a little busy. Passing through dense trees would inevitably cause the leaves to rustle.
Because of this, some monsters attacked, but they were all dealt with by the two of them.
As the three of them continued deeper into the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountains, the monsters they encountered became more and more powerful, and they even encountered several patrols from the Mudrill Clan.
Fortunately, the three of them were alert and lurked in time, and did not have any conflict with the Mudi tribe.
