Chapter 583: Xuan Ming, whose Extreme Joy Begets Sadness
"We haven't seen each other for more than thirty years, and you are getting more and more cunning, and you actually tricked me!" Lan Yan looked at Fang Ling with a smile and hummed.
"I've been here a long time ago. If I cheat you a little bit, you'll show off your fox tail."
When Fang Ling heard this, his face turned red and he was a little embarrassed.
"Let me be healthy." Lan Yan moved lightly and came to behind Fang Ling.
Fang Ling lifted up his clothes, revealing his strong back.
Lan Yan looked at the strange red snake swimming on his back and shook her head gently.
"Do you know what the hell this is?" Fang Ling asked.
"I've never heard of such a weird thing." Lan Yan said, raising her hand and touching it.
Her soft, cold hands gently stroked Fang Ling's back, making him feel a little strange.
"The high priest is really good now. He was able to beat Wen Mu and Chuan Ning to the point where they fled." Fang Ling added.
"It's not bad. I learned some powerful spells thanks to my daughter's influence." Lan Yan said with a smile.
"You are fierce enough. Although these two people were injured by me, you were able to kill them with your cultivation..."
"If we fight head-on, I probably won't even be your opponent."
"Has Lan Luo accepted the inheritance from the Witch God?" Fang Ling asked again.
Lan Yan shook her head: "No, I told her not to be anxious, so it's still a little short."
"I don't want her and the remaining young people from my Lan family to come out until there is peace outside."
"Although the Tiandao Sect's army of monks stationed in Miao territory has been defeated and the remnants of the Sichuan clan have been wiped out, Tiandao Sect still has a powerful leader and countless elite disciples..."
"I just heard from their elder that He Changling is in retreat to make a breakthrough." Fang Ling said.
"It would not be a good thing for you and me if we wait for him to successfully come out of seclusion and reach the sixth-grade Jade Pure Realm."
"If you don't take advantage of him to retreat now, you and I can take advantage of him!"
"The critical moment when he is breaking through is a good time to kill him."
"Is this true?" Lan Yan was a little moved when she heard this.
Fang Ling: "I just heard what Mu said with my own ears, and it should be true."
Lan Yan took a deep breath and nodded: "In that case, let's give it a try!"
"Anyway, you have the power to escape. Even if we are defeated, you and I can escape intact."
Fang Ling: "But I have to go home first to find out what is behind me."
"Otherwise, if this weird thing suddenly makes a fuss during the fight, I will definitely die."
"I think I heard you say that your home is in Nanyang Country? It's just on the way." Lan Yan muttered.
Fang Ling hummed lightly, stepped forward to absorb Wen Mu and Ning Chuan, then turned around and took Lan Yan north.
……………………
A few days later, at the foot of Hanshan Mountain.
"Is this your home?" Lan Yan looked up at the top of the mountain, curious.
"Although this is not the place where I was born, it is the place where I was raised." Fang Ling said.
"When you meet my five masters later, you must be more respectful and don't be rude."
Lan Yan curled her lips and hummed: "Do you even need to say this?"
Fang Ling walked in front, walking up the green steps step by step, feeling a little complicated.
This is the so-called timidity of being close to home. He hasn't come back for several years.
In front of the temple, the peach blossoms are still blooming, and these peach trees seem to be blooming all year round.
He slowly opened the temple door and walked into the temple with Lan Yan.
"Hey, little Fang Ling is back?"
"Tsk tsk, you have good taste, this girl is very handsome!"
The flower thief suddenly appeared and looked at the two of them with a smile.
"This is my Hua Thief Master." Fang Ling introduced.
Lan Yan quickly saluted and said, "I've met my senior!"
After hearing the movement in the front yard, Sword Demon and others also came over.
They all thought that Lan Yan was Fang Ling's woman, so they were very happy and had smiles on their faces.
When Fang Ling saw this, he didn't bother to explain.
Lan Yan was quick-thinking and didn't explain much, so she just accepted it.
"Masters, there is something, I wonder if you recognize it?"
They were all close relatives of Fang Ling. Fang Ling did not go around the bush and showed them the red snake on his back.
"This thing is even weird. It tortured me to the point of death a few days ago."
"But after the torture, my cultivation level improved dramatically."
Several people gathered there and thought carefully.
"This object looks tangible, but is actually invisible. This is the first time I have seen such a strange object." Zhao Manzi said in a deep voice.
Fat Master: "Let me see if I can suck it out!"
He raised his hand and aimed at the red snake and sucked on it, but the red snake still wandered freely behind Fang Ling without being affected at all.
Sword Demon: "Even the Poison Emperor's Heaven-Absorbing Technique is useless. This thing is really difficult to deal with."
"I seem to have seen this thing in some ancient book, but it was so long ago that I can't remember it clearly." Hua Thief frowned as he thought about it.
The old monk with white eyebrows stroked his long eyebrows and said, "I know about this thing. It has been recorded in my Buddhist classics."
"This thing is the Yin-Yang Dark Snake, a strange existence between life and death."
"It is neither a living thing nor a dead spirit. It can be seen as the manifestation of a certain law, or a real curse."
"The yin and yang snake can travel between the yin and yang worlds, and there is only one in the world."
"It is immortal. Even in ancient times, there were legends about it."
"Those who are possessed by the Yin-Yang Snake will be tortured by the power of the laws attached to it."
"It is the manifestation of the law of life and death, so it will make the living creatures who lean over it worse than death."
"However, it is also a creature of creation. Every time it attacks, it can attract the pure energy of the yin and yang worlds, improving the possessed person's cultivation."
"This thing is similar to the death curse you had before. It will continue to strengthen as the number of attacks increases."
"But the more severe the attack, the greater the improvement in cultivation level."
"Master can expel it from your body."
Hearing this, Fang Ling said: "Although this thing tortures people, it can also make me stronger. I am willing to bear this pain."
"It's just... I'm worried that the timing of the attack of the Yin-Yang Snake is unstable and will miss my big event."
"This matter is not difficult. Master has a method called Ming Wang Seal." The old monk with white eyebrows said calmly.
"If the timing of the attack of the Yin-Yang Dark Snake is wrong, you can activate the Ming King's Seal and suppress it temporarily."
"The King Ming's Seal should be able to suppress it for about seven days."
"In addition, if you can't bear the torture of the Yin-Yang Dark Snake, you can also activate the Ming King's Seal to temporarily suppress it."
"Master, have you already broken through that level?" The sword demon on the side asked in a deep voice.
Hua Thief and the others also looked at him, quite expectantly.
If he had already broken through that level, then they might be able to leave this broken temple soon.
The old monk with white eyebrows smiled and shook his head: "No, it's just that I am more knowledgeable. Don't think too much about it."
"Be calm and prepare to receive the Ming King's Seal!" He looked at Fang Ling and said again.
Fang Ling immediately cheered up.
Then the old monk rubbed his palm on his back, leaving a magical golden mark on his back.
The Yin Yang Snake seemed to be afraid of this golden seal, and immediately hid far away, swimming from Fang Ling's back to his chest.
