Peng Guzi was mature and prudent. He had more than 20 disciples under his sect. How could he act on his impulse and just use the black smoke and Zhang Xinli to circulate in the formation without showing his face?
Zhang Xinli then caused the endless red lotus to shine in all directions. The black smoke receded and spread again, but no one could touch the area as big as a palm.
After walking around in the formation for a few times, Zhang Xinli finally gave up, nodded and said with a fierce smile: "Okay, then I will leave you alive and go back and give Lin Xiaodong a message, saying that I will go find him!"
With a flick of his sleeves, he walked out of the formation and led his disciples back to the mountain.
In the formation, Peng Guzi waited for a while before the black smoke dispersed.
Shen Lijia said in horror: "Teacher, what should we do now?"
Peng Guzi said solemnly: "Go quickly and invite Kong Chanzi, Chun Chengzi and Lin Xiaodong to come!"
Shen Lijia nodded and fled to Wuyingguan.
Disciple Shoushan took the people to the hall, where Kong Chanzi and Jiang Yantong came to see him.
Shen Lijia stood up and said anxiously: "Master, Miss Jiang, what's wrong, Zhang Xinli, Tai Xuanzi's eldest disciple, has practiced evil skills and has just been beaten to my balcony!"
Kong Chanzi and Jiang Yantong were both startled. Kong Chanzi stared and asked, "How is your teacher?"
Shen Lijia said: "My teacher is lucky. He arranged the black wind array in the back mountain in advance. All the disciples in the mountain hid in the array and escaped."
Jiang Yantong opened her mouth and raised her head: "Are your teachers no match for Zhang Xinli?"
Shen Lijia nodded: "Zhang Xinli said himself that his current magic power is already higher than that of Tai Xuanzi. My teacher was defeated in just two moves!"
Kong Chanzi was also panicked. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "We have to ask Taoist Master Lin for this matter!"
Shen Lijia said: "I am planning to go, let me inform the real person first."
Kong Chanzi nodded and said to Jiang Yantong: "You stay and preside over the mountain protection formation, and I will go to the tower to watch."
Jiang Yantong activated the mountain-protecting formation, Kong Chanzi went to the tower to watch, Shen Lijia informed Chun Chengzi, and finally came to Chonghua Palace.
The egret boy came out to greet him, and Shen Lijia said: "Zhang Xinli, the eldest disciple of Taixuanzi, has also practiced evil magic. He has just been admitted to my tower temple. My teacher wants to invite Taoist Master Lin to come and discuss it."
The egret boy hurriedly took people to the Qiushui Palace. Lin Xiaodong didn't say much after hearing this. He took Shen Lijia's wrist and the two of them returned to the balcony in a flash.
Several Taoist leaders sat down in the hall to discuss.
Peng Guzi said: "A few days ago, Zhang Xinli took over as the head of Qingfeng Palace.
Qingfeng Palace had been silent for a long time, and suddenly there was movement, so I felt that something was wrong, so I arranged a black wind array in the back mountain in advance."
"Unexpectedly, Zhang Xinli became the leader only three days ago, and he already became a member of my tower.
His evil skills are so powerful that I am no match for him, so I had to lead a mountain of disciples to hide in the black wind formation to save my life."
Shen Lijia said: "Before Zhang Xinli left, he said that he wanted to settle the score with Taoist Lin."
Lin Xiaodong smiled scornfully: "When I killed Tai Xuanzi, I told Zhang Xinli that he would always take the wrong path and die in my hands."
Peng Guzi asked Lin Xiaodong: "How confident is Taoist Lin that he can deal with this person?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "The last time I dealt with Tai Xuanzi, it was actually extremely dangerous. I was lucky enough to win, but if I want to win now, it shouldn't be difficult."
Peng Guzi said: "I got some words out of Zhang Xinli. He said that he had received guidance from an expert, and he seemed to be more powerful than Tai Xuanzi."
Lin Xiaodong blinked: "What kind of expert?
Has there been any change in his evil ways?"
Peng Guzi looked at Shen Lijia and said, "He didn't say who it was. There is a red lotus flower, which contains many ghosts."
Chun Chengzi leaned out: "Yinhun?"
Kong Chanzi looked sideways at Chunchengzi and said, "When Taixuanzi was there, all the people he captured were alive."
Lin Xiaodong said: "Could it be said that this is the advice given to him by an expert?"
Chun Chengzi stroked his beard: "If it is just torturing ghosts, then it is more hidden and difficult to detect, and it is easier to catch than a living person."
Lin Xiaodong raised his head: "If the living person is replaced by the dead, the magic power is higher, but it is not enough to deal with me."
Kong Chanzi frowned and said with a straight face: "Poor these ghosts, they have not yet entered reincarnation, and they have to suffer the pain of this purgatory first."
Chun Chengzi said: "If Taoist Lin is confident, then we should take action as soon as possible. The longer we delay, the higher Zhang Xin's legislative power will be."
Peng Guzi said: "It would be great if Taoist Master Lin could get rid of this evil way, but in case we are not the opponent, we should make plans in advance."
"Although my Black Wind Array cannot kill him, it is enough to hide and protect myself. I would also like to invite a few of you to come with me and have a look. When I get back, I will arrange them at the mountain gate to avoid hurting innocent people."
How can the sect's techniques be easily taught to others? After hearing this, Kongchanzi and Chunchengzi both expressed solemnity and stood up to bow down: "Thank you!"
Peng Guzi took a few people to the back mountain, came to the black wind formation, explained it, and said: "This formation uses black cloud staffs to set up the formation, and you can also arrange flags to cover the sky. I will ask my disciples to make a few of them." Come, we can set up the formation when we get back."
Kongchanzi and Chunchengzi bowed again, and when Shen Lijia brought the flags to cover the sky, they each took them back to the mountain gate, taught their disciples how to set up the black wind array, and then returned them.
Lin Xiaodong, Peng Guzi, Kong Chanzi, Chunchengzi, and Shen Lijia were talking in front of the mountain.
Peng Guzi told Shen Lijia: "Go back and close the mountain gate tightly. If there is any disturbance, take people to the black wind array. Don't show off."
Shen Lijia nodded and handed over to the others: "Master, Taoist Lin, please take care."
Lin Xiaodong and the others smiled at each other, took off into the air, and flew to Meng An Mountain.
When he came to the foot of the mountain, Peng Guzi looked up and saw that the mountain was full of black air, lifeless, and the result of too many ghosts. He said angrily: "You should have killed them all in one go!"
Lin Xiaodong said: "I am also a little more sensible. I won by luck and have long forgotten about the aftermath."
Kong Chanzi said with shame: "I was secretly watching at first, but Yao Didao encountered so many things one after another, and gradually he forgot about it."
Peng Guzi sighed: "This is also my fault. As the leader, I was not wary of evil ways."
Chun Chengzi said: "The evil will not prevail against the good. Now Taoist Master Lin has perfected his magical powers. Zhang Xinli has the magic power and is no match for him."
Several people slowly went up the mountain, and when they reached the halfway point of the mountain, suddenly a bell rang loudly at the top, and Zhang Xinli led all the disciples on the mountain to the outside of the mountain gate.
Lin Xiaodong and others came up slowly. When Zhang Xinli saw Lin Xiaodong coming, he grinned: "I was about to go find you, but you showed up to the door yourself."
Lin Xiaodong smiled fiercely: "I was looking for you too. You have practiced sorcery yourself, which gave me a legitimate reason to kill you."
Zhang Xinli's eyes glowed with scarlet light: "You were lucky enough to win that day because my teacher made a mistake. Today, I won't make the same mistake!"
Lin Xiaodong said contemptuously: "There is no difference between the living soul and the ghost. You need the guidance of an expert to think of such a truth?"
Zhang Xinli stretched out his hand, and endless red lotus appeared in his palm. He smiled fiercely and said: "Yes, whether living or dead, they can provide me with infinite magic power!"
