Chapter 658 The Troubles in Ancient Cultivators and the Vast Net
Yu Lie sat cross-legged in the quiet room, breathing in the immortal energy every day, transforming Zi Mansion, and was very busy working.
Originally, when it came to arranging the formations in Zi Mansion, in order to prevent others from peeking into some secret things in Zi Mansion, he did it all by himself.
But after working on it for a few days, Yu Lie found that arranging the formation was too cumbersome. Moreover, he was already at the first level of alchemy, and the vastness of the Zi Mansion had long been exposed to the eyes of the Ancient God Son and others.
In addition, the bronze wine cup has now been refined into his body, and even the Great Heavenly Lord cannot see it.
So he was lazy again and simply invited outsiders into Zi Mansion to help him set up the formation. He only needed to be responsible for some key parts. Of course, to be cautious, Yu Lie only let one person in, and the other party was still his.
Confidant.
This day.
After Sang Yutang finished communicating with the masters of Formation, Alchemy, and Qi Dao outside the quiet room, he muttered something in his mouth and walked into Yu Lie's room as usual.
Over the past few days, she has been assisting Yu Lie in setting up formations. Not only does she have many masters to give her guidance, but she also has many formation diagrams that she can browse at will. In addition, her own qualifications are also outstanding, and her skills in formations can be said to be advancing by leaps and bounds.
Such a huge harvest made this woman feel like she was in a daze, and she was talking nonsense all day long.
When Yu Lie saw her in such a state, he originally thought of giving her a few days off to rest and digest what she had learned before getting back to work. Unexpectedly, this woman only looked confused and dazed on the outside, but was actually very clear-headed.
She even discovered that there was an extremely mysterious formation in Yu Lie's Zi Mansion.
This formation was the nameless formation that helped Yu Lie expand the Zi Mansion. He got it from the birdcage, and he never told outsiders about it. He also deliberately concealed this formation when he invited Sang Yutang to enter the Zi Mansion.
.
Unexpectedly, the woman was able to see through and identify him with all kinds of clues.
Fortunately, today is different from the past. This formation has been seen through, and it is within the tolerance range of Yu Lie. There is no need to coerce this woman or even erase her memory.
At the same time, another surprise appeared, that is, Sang Yutang discovered that the series of transformations that Yu Lie had carried out on Zi Mansion could be carried out completely relying on the nameless formation.
If this move is successful, it will not only make the Zi Mansion's alchemy generation more natural, but also further integrate the unknown formation into the Zi Mansion, check for leaks and fill in the gaps, and guard against possible loopholes in the formation.
However, this also carries the risk that the Wuming Formation may collapse or its effectiveness may be weakened.
But as soon as Yu Lie heard about the benefits brought by modifying the formation, especially the benefit of checking for leaks and filling in the gaps, he immediately agreed without hesitation.
His Purple Mansion has now expanded to the extreme, and it is no longer possible to grow by devouring secret realms and other objects, and its shape has been determined. Even if the nameless formation collapses, the Purple Mansion will not collapse.
Therefore, this formation is of little use to him now.
Even though it has its own suppressive effect, Yu Lie now has its own great power and the aura of killing immortals for suppressing purposes.
On the contrary, he was extremely worried that this unknown formation would remain in his body. One day, the owner or descendant of the formation would come to visit him and use it as a trick to open the back door of his Purple Mansion.
By then, it will be too late to regret it.
So he thought about it for a few times, and not only agreed to Sang Yutang's proposal, but also directly opened up part of the authority of the formation to the other party, so that the woman could move on her own in her Zi Mansion, and she could also enter and exit Yu Lie Zi Mansion on her own.
Today, Sang Yutang walked up to Yu Lie. After bowing to Yu Lie, she opened the door of the Zi Mansion that was placed aside. Just as she was about to step in, she suddenly woke up and said to Yu Lie:
"Lang Jun, it seems that an acquaintance of yours came looking for me outside the main hall today. He was very secretive. I asked him to tell me something, but he still refused. He said it would be best to meet Mr. Lang in person.
When Yu Lie heard this, he opened his eyelids in surprise.
Seeing that he had heard it, Sang Yutang nodded and muttered some incantation in a spirited manner before escaping into Yu Liezi's house.
"An acquaintance?" Yu Lie chewed in his mouth, his consciousness flying, instantly covering the entire hall, and then he saw the sneaking figure of Kui Mulang.
He suddenly burst into laughter: "So it's this guy, has he also worshiped in the Chaos Immortal Palace?"
Yu Lie recalled carefully and found that he had indeed seen Kui Mulang in the sword garden.
It's just that the other party was sneaking around in the sword garden, seeming to intentionally keep a distance from him. Yu Lie didn't bother to talk to him, so he didn't pay much attention to him and ignored him.
Not only did Kui Mulang worship in the Immortal Palace, Yu Lie recalled again and found that the horned wood dragon was also here.
Yu Lie thought to himself: "Isn't this guy here to make friends?"
Although he and Yi Lie had the experience of fighting side by side in the secret realm of Fuxing City, they could not be regarded as completely turning their hostility into friendship. The other party probably knew this, so he had been hiding from Yu Lie in the Immortal Palace.
After thinking about it for a while, Yu Lie adjusted his breath for a while, and finally took some time out of his busy schedule to ask Na Kuimulang to come in.
Not long after.
Kuimu Lang lowered his head and tucked his tail between his legs. As soon as he entered the quiet room door, he prostrated on the ground before the door behind him was closed, and performed the solemn ceremony of bowing three times and nine times.
"Xiao Dao Wood Wolf, see your highness! May your highness ascend to immortality and transcendence as soon as possible!"
This guy kept talking and called Yu Lie "Your Highness". He directly transferred the outdated etiquette of Taoist court and flattered him to the extreme.
When Yu Lie heard this, he couldn't help but chuckle on his face: "Okay, Master Timber Wolf, let's stop talking nonsense. I'm sure I didn't come here specifically to flatter you. If you have anything to do, just tell me.
But let’s start with the dirty talk. You and I have a certain cause and effect, but the relationship is not enough to help too much. You can think about it yourself."
Kuimu Lang said quickly:
"How dare you? How can Xiaodao be able to serve as your Highness' teacher? Your Highness can just call me Xiaomu or Xiaolang."
The guy paused and looked back at the quiet room door behind him.
Yu Lie waved his hand clearly, closing the door, and the surrounding formations also rose up. He said with a playful look: "It can be said now that even if you want to rebel against heaven, no one else here will know about it.
"
Immediately afterwards, Na Kuimu Lang breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Your Highness Mingjian! It turns out that His Highness has known for a long time that someone wants to slander His Highness and colluded with the ancient cultivator."
"What?" Yu Lie was suddenly shocked. He really didn't know what Kui Mulang wanted to say.
However, his expression remained unchanged, but the look of amusement in his eyes became even more intense. He looked like he had a pearl of wisdom in his hands and said:
"Oh, just keep talking and listen."
Immediately, Kui Mulang lowered his head and told, word for word, the details of how Jiaomu Jiao had forced him to leave the palace and go to Fuxing City to listen to Gao Yunzi's orders.
While Yu Lie was talking, he secretly ordered the disciples in the palace to get the list of people who had been out in the past few days and send the message to him.
After flipping through the entry and exit records, I found out that just a few hours ago, Kui Mulang had just finished his shift and secretly left the Immortal Palace with the Jiaomu Jiao, taking a trail.
It's just that the other generation thought that no one knew about it, but they didn't know that the entire Immortal Palace was shrouded in a large formation, and even the entry and exit of a ray of spiritual energy would be recorded, let alone a living person.
As for what Kuimulang said, after Yu Lie heard a few words, he was even more surprised and confused:
"What, Taozhou is suspected of being visited by ancient cultivators? Isn't this really because the Inspection Department is picking on soft persimmons for the sake of performance, and deliberately branding Taozhou as a traitor to the Shanhai Realm who is having an affair with the ancient cultivators?"
Several times, Yu Lie wanted to directly ask Kui Mulang if he was telling lies, but in order to maintain his identity and to come up with more words, he held back.
I continued to listen for a few more times, and based on what Kui Mulang said.
What Gao Yunzi planned was to force the Taozhou lineage to be exposed during the Dancheng Ceremony, in order to ruin the happiness of Qianzhou. He even planned to go along with the situation and encourage Yu Lie to go and kill Taozhou.
The lineage of the two states was inadvertently exposed later, and the origin of the two states was hidden.
In this way, although Qiangong was to get rid of traitors, the image he presented to the world of Shanhai World would inevitably be that of betrayal, arrogance and domineering. At the same time, he was doing a free job for the Taoist court.
If Yu Lie accidentally lost his true energy or even got injured in the process of getting rid of the traitors, it would be even more appropriate for Gao Yunzi and the Taoist court.
"How did the ancient cultivator focus on Taozhou? And how did he sneak into the mountain and sea realm?"
Yu Lie thought about it, feeling suspicious in his heart.
As far as he knew, or as far as anyone in the Shanhai Realm knew, the Shanhai Realm itself was shrouded in heavy dragon energy and surrounded by immortals all over the sky.
Although ancient cultivators have sneaked in before, they all sneaked in with the help of world fragments, that is, when the mountain and sea realm took the initiative to release the barrier.
Moreover, all the stowaways cannot escape from the world fragments. The final result is that they are turned into ashes along with the fragments and become the nourishment of the Shanhai Realm. There is no need for the people of the Shanhai Realm to deal with it at all.
Involuntarily, Yu Lie suddenly thought of Shi Hanzi's fellow, and thought to himself: "Could it be that this matter is related to our Taoism..."
Although this association seems a bit ridiculous, if Taozhou's traitor is exposed.
This incident is most likely the first time in history that Shanhaixian Dao was "invaded" by an outside world after its establishment.
At least it will be the first time openly.
When the time comes, for the sake of face, or for the sake of the safety of the community, Xianting will definitely scratch the surface and find out the clues.
By accident, if the ancient cultivators in Taozhou were really attracted by Shi Hanzi, their existence would be exposed and Yu Lie would be implicated.
Even if Yu Lie is a first-grade golden elixir, he will suffer hardships, forcing him to perform meritorious service and prove his loyalty. Because he has no Taoist rules in his mind, if someone wants to kill him, it is not absolutely impossible.
For a moment, Yu Lie felt troubled.
He vaguely felt that there seemed to be a vast net in front of him, slowly rushing toward him, waiting for him to fall into it.
In the quiet room, Kui Mulang didn't notice anything strange about Yu Lie. He landed in front of Yu Lie and continued to talk loudly about Gao Yunzi's intentions, but he only said some superficial things and rubbed his hands secretly.
After Gao Yunzi and Jiaomu Jiao were damaged from beginning to end, it was Kui Mulang who was the most honest person.
It seems that this person does not know how much uproar it will cause in the world of mountains and seas if the Taozhou ancient cultivator is exposed.
"Wait a minute." Yu Lie narrowed his eyes and thought to himself:
"Kui Mulang is an old man in the Inspection Department. When he brought me into the department, he was very clear-headed and ruthless. Is he really ignorant of the relationship between the 'Taozhou Ancient Cultivator' or is he just lying?
I don’t know, are you deliberately reminding me?”
Especially at this time of year, the official battle between the Shanhai Realm and the Ancient Cultivator may not be far away.
If we don’t know about other forces yet, there are Immortal Slayer Sword and Ancient God Son in the Chaos Immortal Palace, but they were vaguely reminded of their indulgence, and Kui Mulang is now a disciple of the Chaos Immortal Palace.
one!
Immediately, Yu Lie looked at the tiger with deep meaning and said:
"Brother Timber Wolf, is this all you plan to say to Pindao today?"
Kui Mulang's words stopped abruptly, his eyes rolled, and there was no confused expression on his face.
"Back to Your Highness, everything Xiaodao knows is here, and nothing is hidden."
After Kuimu Lang thought for a while, he immediately knelt on the ground again and shouted loudly:
"If Your Highness notices that there is a different child in this matter, Xiaodao is willing to swear a Taoist oath to prove Xiaodao's loyalty, and is willing to work hard for His Highness to prove his loyalty. Please give him whatever you want."
Yu Lie chuckled.
It was obvious that Kui Mulang, a cunning man, knew that if the matter of "Taozhou Ancient Cultivators" were taken seriously, how important the matter would be.
It's just that I don't know if the other party is deliberately testing Yu Lie, or if he wants to save a hand so that he can take over errands from Yu Lie, or if he wants to remind Yu Lie further later, depending on the situation.
Yu Lie said calmly: "In that case, if I send you back to the mountain and sea realm and rush to Taozhou to find out what's going on, can you do it?"
Kui Mulang had an impassioned expression, and suddenly choked. He took a breath, but held it back and did not dare to say anything.
Yu Lie shook his head and said, "Then I ask you to lead people to the Taoist court and either torture or invite Gao Yunzi to confront me face to face in the Immortal Palace. Do you dare to do it?"
Kuimulang's mouth trembled a few more times, and he stopped talking again, burying his head, not daring to look at Yu Lie.
Seeing this, Yu Lie laughed and scolded: "It's not okay to do this, it's not okay to do that, and you dare to say that you can do whatever I tell you. Kui Mulang, if you only have loyalty and no courage or ability, you won't be able to handle things well."
These words made Kuimu Lang suddenly look ashamed.
Fortunately, Yu Lie let this guy go in time.
Buzz!
A dim jade sword was seen floating in the sky, landing in front of Kui Mulang, and Yu Lie's command sounded:
"As long as you hold this order, secretly capture the Jiaomu Jiao, imprison him in a place, and torture him severely.
When the time comes, will there be anyone inside or outside the Immortal Palace to ask about it? How many people are there specifically? No matter how big or small the matter is, please write it down for me one by one!"
The jade sword was thrown by the ancient god's son to Yu Lie to understand the magic formula. Now the magic formula in it has been exhausted and has become a decoration. However, the disciples of the Immortal Palace hold this object and can still command the three swordsmen to mobilize.
Most of the formations can be regarded as proof of the identity of the Ancient God Son.
Kui Mulang stood up quickly and held up his jade sword. He looked excited and shouted in a loud voice:
"Here! I will obey His Highness' decree."
Whether it was going deep into the enemy camp, gathering intelligence, or arresting Taoist masters, he, Kui Mulang, didn't have the guts.
But getting rid of his colleagues and fighting in the nest is his specialty.
Is it true that he has served as someone's inspector for hundreds of years for nothing?!
