As the last ray of sunset light quietly faded from the horizon, shining stars appeared in the starry sky together with the bright white moon.
Since the bright moon and stars were all artificially created, they were much more magnificent than in reality, illuminating the vast trial field as far as the eye could see.
Deep in the forest, in a place where trees are relatively concentrated, a group of three people stopped in front of a big tree. Dongfang Yuqing, one of the three, pointed to the trunk and said: "We will stop at this big tree tonight.
Let’s rest down below and take turns being on guard.”
Ni Mantian immediately said: "It's about the first watch now. Xiaogu sleeps first, and sleeps from the first to the third watch. I will be on guard with you. Then Xiaogu gets up to be on guard, and I sleep with you again, from the third watch to the third watch.
Five o'clock in the morning."
Dongfang Yuqing frowned and said, "You still don't trust me."
Unexpectedly, Ni Mantian actually nodded and admitted: "Yes, what if you have evil intentions towards us? So, my arrangement is the best."
Dongfang Yuqing was speechless.
In a blink of an eye, it was midnight.
Ni Mantian wakes Hua Qiangu from sleeping and keeps vigil on their behalf.
Dongfang Yuqing pretended to close his eyes, but in fact he didn't feel sleepy at all.
With his current level of cultivation, sleeping and eating are no longer necessary for survival.
The end of the third watch.
Dongfang Yuqing suddenly smelled a faint aroma, and the next moment, the small bone that was standing on the tree watching the wind fell straight down, and was immediately caught by the magic sword that suddenly flew up, and was placed steadily on the ground.
Seeing this, Dongfang Yuqing immediately covered his mouth and nose, silently practicing mystical skills to prevent the inexplicable aroma from affecting him...
"You are quite alert," Bai Zihua said outside the forest, looking at Dongfang Yuqing in the fairy mirror.
The other three followed his gaze, and Mo Yan frowned and said, "In the entire forest, he is the only one who has been able to resist Mi Yiyan, so he needs special attention."
Everyone else knows that the key point here is not to pay attention, but to prevent the other party from being a spy.
Bai Zihua nodded and said, "Let's see what they want most."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the fairy mirror. In an instant, a puff of smoke floated out from the heads of all the seekers who were stunned by the smoke. The smoke was like a mirror, reflecting their own illusions.
Dongfang Yuqing looked at Hua Qiangu and saw that in her illusion, her father was not dead and had even moved to Changliu to live with her and her master.
Then, he looked at Ni Mantian and saw that in her illusion, she had successfully become Bai Zihua's disciple and became Changliu's chief disciple, loved by her peers.
Seeing this, Dongfang Yuqing couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, he didn't get hit, otherwise the four immortals would have seen the scene he painted with his hand.
His eyes wandered between Ni Mantian and Hua Qiangu, and he finally made up his mind to come to Ni Mantian first, put his hand on the other person's eyebrows, and forcefully squeezed into the other person's dream.
He must wake up the two of them as soon as possible and show his "kind thoughts" to the immortals who are watching the scene here.
the other side.
When he chose to awaken Ni Mantian, a red light flew out of the magic sword, poured into Hua Qiangu's body, and then appeared in her dream, manifesting into a figure in a red dress.
"Devil!"
Outside the secret realm, Mo Yan stood up again with a loud sound, and said to Qin Yao: "I thought it was just a demon sword, but I didn't expect that a demon spirit was born. The leader of Shushan, the dignified sword, is actually a demon sword.
It even raises a demon spirit, what kind of decency is it, what kind of decency is this?!"
Qin Yao said calmly: "I am happy, please don't worry about me."
Mo Yan walked up and down in front of the three saints angrily and shouted: "Do you think I want to control you? I don't want Changliu and Shushan to be ridiculed by the righteous way because of you."
"Senior brother, can you please stop turning around? You're dizzy." Sheng Xiaomo, a good gentleman who has been here for a long time, said.
"Shut up." Mo Yan glared at him, and then said to Qin Yao: "I can't bear it anymore. Are you going to destroy the demon spirit? If you don't go, I will!"
Qin Yao stood up suddenly: "I think you dare."
"What am I afraid of!" Mo Yan said, and immediately turned into a stream of light and quickly disappeared into the fairy mirror.
"Old man." Qin Yao snorted angrily, then rushed into the secret realm, arriving first and blocking in front of the opponent.
"Get out of the way." Mo Yan summoned the fairy sword and pointed it at Qin Yao.
Qin Yao raised his hand and took the magic sword into his hand, pointing it at the opponent as well: "If you want to fight, I will accompany you."
"Master, we can't let them fight." Sheng Xiaomo said anxiously to Bai Zihua.
Bai Zihua looked helpless and rushed into the secret realm, stopping between the two of them: "Senior brother, Zixun, do you want to split Changliu?"
Mo Yan: "..."
He cannot bear this crime.
Qin Yao pointed at Mo Yan and said, "I think that's what he means."
"nonsense."
Mo Yan jumped to his feet angrily and shouted: "Changliu is the home I want to protect with my life. How can I split Changliu?"
Qin Yao said: "You even dare to attack me, the Changliu Immortal, the head of Shushan, what else do you dare not do? If it were someone else, without my two identities, wouldn't you just do whatever you want?"
"I can't speak against you with sharp teeth and a sharp mouth." Mo Yan then said to Bai Zihua: "Junior brother, I should be the World Honored One."
He now discovered that if he did not bear the honorary title of Changliu, he would indeed be a bit weak against Xia Zixun as the leader of Shushan.
Bai Zihua nodded: "Okay."
He couldn't refuse this kind of request. Because when he took over as the leader, Master Jinkou Yuyan said that Mo Yan and Sheng Xiaomo should assist him, so Mo Yan and Sheng Xiaomo were the most noble ones in Changliu besides him.
He should have the name of a venerable person.
"Then I am Confucian Master." Sheng Xiaomo then flew into the secret realm and said in a gentle and approachable voice: "Okay, okay, everyone, please calm down and stop arguing. World Honored One, even if you don't believe in Zixun,
Don’t you still believe in me and the leader?”
Under Sheng Xiaomo's mediation, Mo Yan gradually calmed down, looked at Qin Yao and said, "I will keep an eye on you."
When Mo Yan compromised, Qin Yao suddenly realized that he could not only "control" Hua Qiangu, Ni Mantian, and Dongfang Yuqing.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! With the help of Bai Zihua and Xiao Shengmo, you can also "control" Mo Yan.
This discovery is crucial.
Because in the original work, if Hua Qiangu is the calamity of life and death painted by Bai Zi, then Mo Yan is the calamity of life and death for everyone.
This guy, because of his stubborn and extreme personality, has caused countless tragedies. For example, he privately expelled Hua Qiangu into the wilderness, which led to Sha Qianmo dying to save Hua Qiangu.
Later, he directly attacked Hua Qiangu, which caused Dongfang Yuqing to die trying to save Hua Qiangu.
In addition, there are also killing fellow disciples to frame others, using apprentices to deceive others, and even provoking disputes between good and evil...
Therefore, this person is very complicated.
His starting point was to maintain Changliu and protect his junior brothers, but everything he did was unconscionable.
It can be said that in order to stay in the Taoist tradition and his junior disciple Bai Zihua, he can become the worst evil person in the world.
Then, conversely, one can naturally "control" him through Chang Liu and Bai Zihua, so as to prevent this lunatic from making the same mistakes again and again, causing harm to others and himself.
Thinking of this, Qin Yao remembered another key figure.
The master of the three deities—Old Man Yandao.
For Mo Yan, this old man is the real nuclear weapon, so keeping Yan Dao is equivalent to putting a chain on Mo Yan, which can bring him back on track when he goes crazy.
At this moment, he secretly made up his mind to find Yan Dao when he was free and give him some salvation through the power of faith.
The redemption is successful. If Mo Yan goes crazy over big things again, please ask Yan Dao to come out and kill him.
For a rigid and stubborn protector like Mo Yan, Master is God, and he is determined not to disobey him!
A few moments later, the four statues flew out of the secret realm.
As the sun gradually appeared in the secret realm, Luo Shiyi teleported everyone out and eliminated eleven of them with evil intentions.
"The next step is the second level. Candidates, please follow me." After watching the eleven people leave, Luo Shiyi said with a smile.
Later, the candidates followed him to the sea of clouds on a large mountain, and the four statues landed on the top of the mountain opposite.
"Everyone, the assessment content of this second level is to walk from this mountain to that mountain along the iron rope between the two mountains. There will be constant intrusion of boomerangs in the middle. Once the iron rope is knocked down, it means that the level has been failed.
." Luo Shiyi pointed at the iron cables between the two mountains and said seriously.
Compared with the first level, this level was actually easier, so everyone walked onto the iron rope one after another, and Ni Mantian, who was so strong, was the first to reach the other side of the mountain.
"Qiangu, come here quickly."
Standing in front of the iron rope on the opposite mountain, Ni Mantian waved and shouted.
Hua Qiangu glanced at the abyss under the sea of clouds, her legs trembling: "I...I'm afraid."
Ni Mantian said: "There's nothing to be afraid of. It's okay. Trust me."
Hua Qiangu told the truth: "The main thing is, I'm afraid of heights."
"Then just wait, I'll go back to pick you up." Ni Mantian was still very loyal at this time, and he was about to walk towards the iron rope.
"Wait a minute." Luo Shiyi said suddenly: "After you walk past, you can't go back."
Nimantian: "..."
After a moment of silence, she began to encourage Hua Qiangu. It was with her encouragement that Hua Qiangu climbed onto the iron rope with trepidation.
Looking at this scene, Qin Yao nodded silently and confirmed his thoughts.
Ni Mantian's nature is not bad, but his jealousy is too strong. Through teaching, his tragic fate should be changed.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
On the iron rope, when Hua Qiangu reached the middle section, boomerangs suddenly rushed toward her.
Just when Hua Qiangu was about to dodge, the magic sword flew up again, shattering all the incoming boomerangs.
Seeing this scene, veins popped out on Mo Yan's forehead. He turned to look at "Xia Zixun", but saw that the other party took out two lanterns from nowhere, rolled them into balls, and stuffed them into his ears under his gaze. It was obvious that
I don't want to listen to him.
"Junior brother, she has cheated so much, why don't you care?" Mo Yan knew that the lamp could not isolate his voice, but it could give Xia Zixun a reason to pretend not to hear, so if he spoke to her again,
Nine times out of ten, he would be ignored, so he turned to look at Bai Zihua.
Bai Zihua actually doesn't care about this.
He is cold and aloof by nature. Except for the fact that Hua Qiangu can be seen by him as the calamity of his life and death, he doesn't care about most other things.
"Senior brother, this is not an assessment for Hua Qiangu." Therefore, he said.
Mo Yan had no choice but to give in again.
"This sword of yours is so magical." At the trial site, when Hua Qiangu came to the end of the mountain, Ni Mantian looked at the magic sword with envy.
Hua Qiangu said honestly: "This is my master's sword. It is used for self-defense. I have to return it after the training is over."
After hearing what she said, the jealousy in Ni Mantian's heart dissipated a lot.
She would be jealous of people who started at the same starting point as herself, but she would not be jealous of the Immortal Lord.
In fact, with her current status and cultivation, she is not even qualified to be jealous of Xia Zixun.
At this time, Luo Shiyi flew down lightly, pointed to a cave in the mountain and said: "It's getting late, you can take a rest in this cave today. I will take you to Sansheng Pond early tomorrow morning.
Complete the last test."
"What is Sanshengchi?" asked an old man in the crowd, wearing a brown gown and white linen.
Luo Shiyi smiled and said, "I'll tell you tomorrow... go and have a rest."
Not long after, when all the candidates walked towards the cave, Bai Zihua was the first to fly away on the mountain peak. Mo Yan took a deep look at Qin Yao, and then left with his sword.
"Zixun Shangxian." Sheng Xiaomo did not leave in a hurry, but shouted to Qin Yao.
"What's wrong?"
Sheng Xiaomo smiled: "Can I trouble you with something?"
"You said." Because he could feel the kindness from the other person, Qin Yao's attitude towards him was also very gentle.
"Can you please help Senior Brother Mo Yan in the future? You know, he is not a bad person, he is just a bit pedantic." Sheng Xiao said silently.
Qin Yao shook his head: "This matter, no! Mo Yan's biggest problem is not being pedantic and rigid, but self-righteousness. If he is allowed to do whatever he wants, his self-righteous character will bring great disaster to Changliu and Changliu's disciples.
"
Sheng Xiaomo was dumbfounded.
He didn't expect that Immortal Zixun would actually say this.
Seeing the stunned look on his face, Qin Yao sighed: "To be honest, I don't want to care about him, but unless I leave forever and never come back, I may be dragged down by him if I don't care about him.
By the way, you know where Master Yandao is in retreat, right? Take me to him, I want to talk to him about Mo Yan."
Sheng Xiaomo: "..."
Why does it sound like Senior Brother Mo Yan is like a troubled boy?
After struggling for a while, he took Qin Yao to a cave and said, "Master has gone into seclusion. I can't guarantee whether he is willing to see you or not."
"Thank you, please go back first." Qin Yao cupped his hands and said.
Sheng Xiaomo paused for a moment and said, "Is it okay if I want to listen in?"
He never interfered with Changliu's government affairs, but he loved his sect deeply.
Qin Yao nodded and said, "Of course, I have nothing shameful to do."
After saying that, he looked up into the cave and shouted: "Old leader, let's talk about Changliu's future!"
