Yang Xuan said, "It's hard to say. The most powerful thing about that rune ghost armor is that it is invulnerable. No matter what kind of attacks I use, I can't hurt it at all."
"If I am really determined to fight with that thing to the death, I may not have no chance of winning at all. I must be at least 20% sure."
"But there is a high probability that I will be exhausted by this thing and be beaten to death by it. I am always a human being, and as a human being I will have physical limits, but that thing is no longer a human being and is invulnerable. This is the most terrifying thing.
place."
Saint Cardinal Cardinal frowned and said, "I am only 20% sure. You are already powerful enough. I didn't expect that thing to be so terrifying. Hey, if only I could have such a thing as a bodyguard."
"Not only do you not have to worry about what it eats, drinks, or peeing, but it is also absolutely loyal to what you say, and its combat power is so strong. If I take such a thing to Qingcheng Mountain, let's see if those smart guys dare to stop me!"
Shu region, Qingcheng Mountain.
This is a Taoist holy land with the title of "The First Way in the World". Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking around, the mountains are lush with trees and covered with a thin layer of mist, giving it a somewhat fairy-like feeling.
The Saint Cardinal, whose little mouth was either eating or talking non-stop along the way, suddenly became quiet at this time.
When she took the first step into the mountain gate, her face looked a little stern, and she had to look around cautiously every two steps forward.
"You don't have to be so nervous. What's the matter? Last time, you were frightened by the old Taoist priest who rode a green bull backwards and held a bamboo stick in his hand."
Yang Xuan laughed and joked, his expression seemed quite relaxed. He put his hands in his trouser pockets along the way and looked around, but all he admired was the scenery on the mountain.
"Not entirely, but I always feel that today is a little different."
Saint Cardinal shook her head slightly, looking worried, "The last time I came here, I could feel a kind of hostility just at the foot of the mountain."
"This kind of hostility cannot be accurately described in words. In short, it is a feeling of danger."
"I can explain the origin of this feeling. This is a Taoist holy land that has lasted for thousands of years."
"Although there have been few disputes with the outside world in recent years, a group of Niubi Taoist priests on the mountain devote themselves to cultivating Taoism all day long."
"But that doesn't mean that they really just chop wood and carry water every day. When they have nothing to do, they go down the mountain to wander around and catch a few fare evaders to create some extra income for the mountain gate."
"I have said before that there are countless old monsters hiding in this mountain who have been practicing in seclusion for decades."
"Leave aside the existence of those old monsters, the current headmaster Li Xuantong and the Four Heavenly Masters of Qin, Chess, Calligraphy and Painting are all half-human and half-immortal figures."
"In the eyes of these so-called decent sects, we in the Red Clothes Sect are all evil pagans."
"The Burning Fire Art in me is naturally an evil spell. It doesn't matter whether I am a decent person or an evil person."
"The aura on my body will have some counter-reaction with the aura here. To put it simply, as long as I step into the mountain gate, those half-human and half-immortal old monsters can sense it."
"At the same time, I don't know if he deliberately wanted to scare me and make me retreat in the face of difficulties, and it gave off an aura full of hostility and danger."
"The old-fashioned master who was riding a green bull backwards and defeated me with one move last time. Now that I think about it, it's probably not all a chance encounter."
"Perhaps they saw me continuing to move forward, ignored their aura warnings, and came down the mountain specifically to deal with me."
"But this time I didn't feel the hostile and dangerous atmosphere at all. On the contrary, it made me feel particularly uneasy."
Yang Xuan nodded after listening, and he could understand what the Holy Lady Cardinal said, which sounded a little evil.
Some masters who have reached the pinnacle of Mahayana cultivation can indeed sense intruders with auras that conflict with the techniques they practice from a long distance away, and then send out warnings through their auras.
This feeling is a bit like animals feeling the scent of natural enemies. Usually at the foot of a mountain where wild beasts are infested, livestock such as cattle and horses will definitely stop or choose to take a detour.
"Anyway, it's up to you. If you regret it now and want to go back, that's fine."
Yang Xuan said calmly with an indifferent expression.
Saint Cardinal Cardinal shook her head decisively and said, "It's impossible to go back. Even if the front is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I have to grit my teeth and fight it out!"
After hearing this, Yang Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "Let's make it clear first, if it's really a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I won't jump down with you."
The two of them continued walking along the mountain road.
The air in the mountains is very good, the surrounding trees are green and beautiful, there are countless towering ancient trees, and the spiritual energy is very abundant. It is indeed a place that is particularly suitable for self-cultivation.
But as he got closer and closer to the top of the mountain, even Yang Xuan began to feel that something was wrong.
The trail they took was not part of the scenic area. It was usually used by Taoist priests, so few tourists would appear here. If they were caught, they would face a huge fine.
But the strange thing is that along the way, let alone tourists, not even a Taoist priest on the mountain was seen.
This is a bit unusual. Could it be that the group of Niubi Taoist priests on the mountain went on strike today?
"Do you think there will be an ambush ahead?"
The Saint Cardinal was so worried that she couldn't help but ask a question that seemed a bit childish.
Yang Xuan turned his head and glanced at the other party. He did not answer the other party's question directly, but asked, "Is the old Taoist who rode the green bull backwards that you met before, Li Xuantong or one of the four heavenly masters?"
Saint Cardinal Cardinal shook her head firmly and said, "Although I have never seen what they look like, that person will definitely not be the Four Heavenly Masters, let alone Li Xuantong, because it is absolutely impossible for these people to appear at the foot of the mountain.
of."
After hearing this, Yang Xuan asked again, "How do you think your ability compares with his?"
Saint Cardinal Cardinal sighed softly, "It's a huge difference. Anyway, I couldn't survive even one move at that time. The old man with a strong nose swung the small bamboo stick in his hand, and I was knocked away directly."
"Isn't that right!"
Yang Xuan rolled his eyes and said, "An experienced Taoist who is not the leader or one of the four heavenly masters can defeat you with one move."
"You said that if they wanted to deal with you, wouldn't they have to make such a big noise and deliberately ambush you?"
"It's like you want to snatch a lollipop from a three-year-old child, and then you make a sophisticated plan and preparation for it, and you also specially customize a body armor, submachine gun or even a rocket launcher. Do you think it's reasonable?"
After hearing what the other party said, Saint Cardinal Cardinal suddenly felt that her question just now was indeed quite childish.
But he still stiffened his neck and said, "I'm just asking casually, do you think anyone is as scheming as you?"
