Purple smoke filled the air, like a sea of clouds spreading all around. Chen Yuan waved his sleeves to lower the poisonous smoke to the ground. His vision returned, and the surrounding greenery was now withered and yellow.
The bodies of small forest beasts were rotting in the soil, and the slowly flowing stream was a light purple color with an unpleasant smell that was quite pungent.
Qingxu and Feihe sighed, each took out a talisman, wrote out of thin air with their fingertips, and then hit the surrounding mountains and forests. They both cast spells, and the trees and grass that were corroded by poisonous smoke suddenly appeared in the talisman within two miles.
In the Dharma light that bloomed above, the rotten skin and dead branches faded away, and the tender green emerged again.
The Spring Transformation Technique has been used to such an extent that it is already trying its best.
"Go over there."
Chen Yuan frowned. The spell that the toad demon had unleashed just now looked like it was used to fight for his life. He didn't know what happened to the monk Zhenhai and the toad demon. He was already mentally prepared for the worst.
The three Dharma lights fell on the messy mountain road, stepping on the potholes and gravel, and there were broken rocks rolling down the mountain wall on one side.
Chen Yuan raised his hand and used his magic power to smooth the road that was not easy to walk. As if obeying orders, large and small stones rolled up and fell into the pit.
The poisonous smoke on the mountain road was dissipating, and the monk's figure appeared in front, with one bare arm, leaning on a Zen staff, and taking back the golden bowl that had fallen on the ground in his palm.
"The old monk Zhenhai is always old, he is really good at it."
Chen Yuan touched himself. Although he didn't look thin, it was not as good as the old monk Zhenhai who looked skinny but had muscles prominent.
Seeing that the other party was fine, I felt relieved. Then I looked ahead, but the toad demon was nowhere to be seen.
"Donor Chen, there is no need to look for it. The toad demon triggered the demon elixir in his body and caused such a big movement. However, his demon elixir has been damaged and his cultivation is not as good as before. It is hard to say whether he can return to his current state in the future.
"
Monk Zhenhai put on the monk's sleeves on his right arm, carried his Zen staff over, and sat down on a protruding rock beside the mountain path. Master Feihe promptly brought him a sheepskin bag filled with water to quench his thirst.
"The toad demon seemed to have the will to die, but unfortunately he had too many distracting thoughts in his mind and did not dare to die at all. However, the death penalty has been averted, but the living penalty cannot be escaped. The golden bowl of my senior brother's magical weapon has been planted in his body, changing his destiny.
I'm afraid it will be difficult to live a better life in the future." The old monk took a sip of cold water and finished the rest of his words in one breath.
Then he returned the sheepskin bag to Feihe, closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. For a moment, his skinny cheeks with pale beard and hair suddenly glowed red, and within half a breath, they turned blue and black again. He went back and forth several times, and his pores secreted a faint light.
The purple beads of sweat were immediately evaporated by the temperature of the monk's body, and for a while the whole person sat in the changing halo and steaming white air.
Qingxu on the side turned his face and said: "The golden bowl is planted in the body of the toad demon to change its fate?"
Chen Yuan nodded, followed by sitting on the rock, and sat down side by side with Zhen Hai.
"This is how Master Zhenkong begged for favor, punished but did not kill the toad, and sacrificed his decades of cultivation just to repay the favor for his daughter."
Qingxu asked a few more questions before he understood the details of the matter.
"I see." He paused for a moment, looked at the purple smoke that had dispersed, and flicked the dust: "I just don't know if he can change his mind. What if he does evil again in the future?"
"If he comes out again, I will kill him with my own hands." Zhenhai, who had been silent until now, suddenly said, "But his fate has been changed. If he wants to return to his peak, haha... Unless he has done great merit, he may do something like this.
How can meritorious deeds be evil demons?"
Feihe heard this and nodded.
"He can avenge the woman he loves. Ultimately, he is much better than those ferocious monsters. It's just that in this pursuit, several fellow practitioners died in his belly."
"snort."
This cold snort came from Qingxu's mouth and nose. He had always been calm and gentle, but when he heard Feihe's words, his face showed disdain.
"The purpose of their coming is known to both you and me. They just want to get benefits from the toad demon. The five people who were eaten first, Pindao, have seen them several times and do not go with us. They usually follow behind.
You hide your head and show your tail, thinking that Pindao doesn't know? These people will die when they die. Pindao even wanted to laugh twice."
The three of them were talking to each other, but they found that Chen Yuan had been standing nearby without interrupting and asked what was said. Chen Yuan seemed not to have heard the words. He looked at the mist curling in the forest outside the mountain and was slightly lost in thought. When Fei He reminded him,
Chen Yuan finally came back to his senses, looked at the two monks, and cupped his hands.
"I was thinking about something just now and I neglected the three of you."
"Is there any other involvement in this matter?" Qingxu has always known that Chen Yuan never does anything that is uncertain. He has also said before that if everything happens to come together, it is not a coincidence.
"This is my previous conjecture. The Kunlun Divine Mirror suddenly went awry, causing us to misunderstand each other for decades. It was not right that Erlang Zhenjun, Lei Zu, and the Great Sage would control the Divine Mirror together."
Having said this, Chen Yuan frowned and stood up from the rock in the sight of the two Taoist priests.
"In addition, what happened during this period of time is like there is a hand behind everything, messing up things that should be perfect. As for how to detect it, you have to find out from this toad monster. He will follow me for a while.
, he was smart and alert, and taught by words and deeds, he shouldn’t have killed an entire town so recklessly.”
Chen Yuan stopped talking for a moment, but the meditating monk over there opened his eyes and his voice sounded: "There is something affecting the mood of that toad demon. When I fought with him, I had a premonition that his fighting spirit was low, and suddenly he became depressed again."
The skyrocketing trend cannot change so fast unless someone gives him support."
The three of them stood in the mountain path and looked at each other. As the monk spoke, they subconsciously glanced at the nearby mountains and forests. The wind blew over and their robes ruffled slightly.
Qingxu and Feihe nodded slightly towards Chen Yuan. The next moment, they each pulled out a talisman from their sleeves and quickly wrote seal scripts. At this moment, Chen Yuan also suddenly turned around and faced the outside of the mountain behind, pointing together.
Point between the eyebrows.
The mighty third eye!
Over there, two magic spells were fired, and two talismans flew out of the mountain road, bursting out magic light. Feihe and Qingxu's fingers crossed their eyes, and they suddenly opened their eyes and glowed with light.
——Yin Yang Dharma Eye!
At this time, the old monk Zhenhai on the rock also stood up with a Zen staff, threw out the golden bowl in his other hand, and floated into the air. As he chanted the mantra, the golden bowl illuminated a piece of peaceful Buddha light.
The magic powers of the three families were combined together and aimed at the mountains on the side. A muffled sound was heard, like a crack. Suddenly, a figure stood on the single peak protruding from the mountains in the distance.
Sure enough, someone is causing trouble.
Chen Yuan and the other four walked to the edge of the mountain path, but the man did not move away. He just looked over. After a closer look, he saw that he was wearing a yin-yang robe with a unicorn pattern. He looked dark and gray, with a gossip on the outside of both sleeves and a long beard on his chin.
Mixed with white spots, it trembles slightly in the wind.
"What a powerful Taoist. I'm afraid he's even better than the ancestors of all generations."
Chen Yuan lowered her voice: "How do you compare to my master?"
"The Sixth Generation Patriarch is the transformed god, he..."
Qingxu browsed through the collections of the Tianshi Mansion, and naturally had some knowledge of the list of his own ancestors. As for the realm of cultivation, he could see the clues at a glance, and his pupils shrank suddenly.
