The night was dark, with only a crooked moon hanging in the sky, barely giving off some moonlight.
Xu Dao stepped in the black smoke and felt that his feet were soft, as if he were stepping in cashmere. He turned around and looked around, and found that other Taoist disciples also looked surprised.
The black smoke was dozens of feet above the ground, and its flying speed was about the same as that of a galloping horse. It was not fast, but it could still be considered as flying in the clouds.
Unlike the usual bending over the crow's body, the Taoist disciples' bodies were hanging in mid-air this time. If they accidentally fell down, even if they practiced magic, their internal organs would rupture and their flesh and blood would turn into mud.
Therefore, the four hundred Taoist disciples looked a little nervous and their bodies were tense.
Not to mention the Taoist boys and handymen who boarded the black smoke. They were all trembling and their legs were trembling. If the Taoist priests had not used magic to silence them long ago, they would definitely scream and scream.
The scene became chaotic.
Just as everyone was gradually getting used to it and calming down, a scream suddenly rang out from the black smoke, causing the Taoist disciples to look at each other.
"Ahhh!"
They immediately saw with their own eyes the Taoist boys and handymen, all staggering, screaming and falling, and disappeared from everyone's eyes in the blink of an eye.
"Jie Jie Jie!" There was a strange laughter in the air. I don't know which Taoist priest made it.
This scene frightened the Taoist disciples, fearing that the five Taoist priests had gone crazy and wanted to kill them. Fortunately, the leaders of each academy stood up and spoke in time.
Mo Wen glanced at Xu Dao and others, and said calmly: "Don't panic! The Taoist temple is closed, and the trip is more than two thousand miles away. The temple owners don't want to waste their mana and throw the servants in the temple into the mortal towns.
That’s all…”
After hearing this, some Taoist disciples immediately stood on tiptoe and looked under the black smoke. They indeed found houses, streets and other objects, and some people uttered soft murmurs, as if they recognized this place.
Although the Taoist servants who were thrown into the black smoke were all in a miserable state, and their heads were bruised and bloody when they fell to the ground, they were all alive and were not smashed into a puddle of flesh.
It must have been the Taoist priests who used magic to protect the servants.
Seeing this scene, many Taoist disciples breathed a sigh of relief.
This means that the five Taoist priests at White Bone Temple are aware of it, and it is not as inhuman and weird as it appears in the dormitory.
This time the White Bone Temple was closed to the public, no living creatures were allowed in the temple, and it was too troublesome to send the servants down the mountain privately, so the Taoist priests simply gathered up nearly 10,000 servants and threw them directly into a mortal place.
Keep them in captivity in the town, and then take them back when you return to the mountain gate.
Among them, several Taoist disciples from the dormitory were thrown into the black smoke and went to manage the handyman Taoist boys.
After clarifying the reason, the expressions of the Taoist disciples suddenly became relaxed, and some Taoist disciples even teased each other about it to gain courage.
And as the handymen were left behind, the black smoke flew faster, and the space above the smoke became much larger, allowing people to walk on the black smoke.
Now that he had some free time, Xu Dao was a little curious about what the black smoke under his feet was. He stepped on it and jumped boldly, and found that it was quite elastic. He suddenly guessed in his heart: "It should not be a spell, but a magic weapon.
"
He looked up at the tall Taoist priests who were also wrapped in black smoke in the night sky, with a look of envy in his eyes.
From the moment the five Taoist priests appeared, they all showed the huge gap between the foundation-building Taoist priests and the Qi-refining Taoist disciples, like a chasm.
Although Taoist disciples at the Qi refining level can already possess the spirit of Yin and are invulnerable to water and fire, and are regarded as otherworldly, compared with them, Taoist priests at the foundation building level are even more impressive and have the bearing of an immortal... In other words,
Even more inhuman!
Moreover, the lifespan of a foundation-building Taoist priest can reach three hundred years. In Xu Dao's previous life, this was already the lifespan of a dynasty, which was extremely terrifying.
Just in terms of lifespan, there is a gap of two, four or five times between Taoist priests, Taoist disciples and mortals. It is a huge difference.
At this thought, Xu Dao felt silent in his heart. He recalled the descriptions of foundation-building Taoist priests in Taoist books and found that they were all powerful and strange.
Suddenly he thought: "Perhaps starting from Taoists, Taoists and mortals are almost two species..."
It is impossible for the weak short-lived species to imagine how the powerful immortal species would think, deal with, and move forward.
This is why, when the five Taoist priests from White Bone Temple appeared, the Taoist disciples, including Xu Dao, would regard them as monsters, tremble with fear, and feel like chickens and dogs.
"Everything is too weak." Xu Dao said softly in his heart.
Even in his previous life, he gradually understood that being a human being has limitations. But in this life, he even knew a sentence: mortals are like ants.
Fortunately, there is an immortal way in the world, which allows a mortal to start from humble beginnings, travel across the sea in the morning, chase the sun and the moon at dusk, jump out of the cycle of life and death, and look up at the size of the universe without being bound by heaven and earth!
Xu Dao closed his eyes slightly and felt thoughts burgeoning in his heart. He wanted to live longer and see more.
But one hundred and fifty years was still too short after all; going up mountains of swords and seas of fire was still too weak, not enough for him to see a broader, more magical world.
Only by completely breaking the cycle of life and death and jumping out of the barriers of heaven and earth can he get rid of the limitations of the human body and see more.
Opening his eyes, Xu Dao's eyes were clear.
He looked at the demon-like aura of the five Taoist priests, and vaguely understood that the more he practiced, the more he understood that the human body had limitations, and if he could transcend by not being a human being, it seemed that he didn't have to do it!
Moreover, the purpose of cultivating Yinshen in the Immortal Way is also to get rid of the physical body and reach the point where I think, therefore I am.
And only by abandoning the human body and transforming thoughts can we see more and see further!
It seems that this is the true philosophy of immortality!
Xu Dao suddenly felt that he had understood a lot. He felt that the true energy in his body was trembling, and the soul in his head was beating. His whole body was in excellent condition, and the talisman seeds were floating and flowing like starlight.
Five of them were trembling continuously, as if they were shaking with excitement.
Xu Da suddenly realizes that his thoughts are clear, and the great road can be expected!
If he hadn't been flying away from the mountain now, he would have had a good time in seclusion, and his cultivation would have increased a lot. But the timing was not right, and Xu Dao had to suppress the excitement and excitement in his heart.
At this time, looking around, especially the five Taoist priests with billowing black smoke, Xu Dao suddenly felt that the other party was no longer strange, but profound and powerful, like a leader.
If he were not flying away from the mountain now, he would definitely have a good retreat, and his cultivation would definitely increase a lot. But the timing was not right, Xu Dao had to suppress the excitement and excitement in his heart. At this time, he looked around, especially the black smoke.
Among the five Taoist priests rolling around, Xu Dao suddenly felt that each other was no longer weird, but profound and powerful, like a leader.
Xu Dao's heart was racing with thoughts, wishing he could build a foundation immediately and become a Taoist priest.
At the same time, Mo Wen looked at many Taoist disciples in the field, especially Xu Dao, and seemed to guess what everyone was thinking.
He said: "All of you fellow Taoists must know the purpose of this trip."
