After hearing what Li Yan said, the Taoist priest was stunned at first, and then he couldn't help but feel overjoyed. This matter was a top priority. He quickly said, "Senior, please take action. I'm very grateful." When he said this, a look of pleading appeared on his face.
"Don't call me senior, just call me Fellow Daoist Li. Although I have some inferences and guesses about what happened in the temple, some things are still not clear. Please tell me about the death of fellow Daoist Luo in the temple just now.
I know the relationship with the main personnel in the Taoist temple." Li Yan slowly walked to the table and sat down directly on the chair.
The palace Taoist was startled at first, and then his eyes showed surprise. Although he had never guessed Li Yan's cultivation level, now although Li Yan did not say it directly, he also denied the identity of the senior. Just now, he really thought
I misjudged the other party's age, thinking that Li Yan must have practiced the top-level beauty-preserving technique. However, after Li Yan denied it, Gong Taoist was even more surprised. At this age, he was closer to the condensed golden elixir than himself.
How could he not be surprised by his appearance?
But he didn't dare to ask, so he ignored the matter in his mind.
About half an hour later, Li Yan lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought. The Taoist priest sitting opposite had a solemn expression and did not make a sound, for fear of disturbing Li Yan's thinking.
During the Taoist Gong's narration just now, Li Yan asked a few questions from time to time, especially about the interpersonal relationships, living habits, etc. of the three deceased people in the Taoist temple, as well as the information about foreign monks like him recorded when entering the temple, and finally including Taoist Gong.
All the clues found were inquired in detail one by one.
After about half a stick of incense had passed, Li Yan thought about what he had guessed and what he had heard just now, and then he raised his head and looked at the Taoist Gong. The Taoist Gong couldn't help but get excited when he saw Li Yan looking up at him.
A jolt.
"Fellow Daoist Palace, your introduction just now has cleared up several previous doubts in my mind, but there are still two most important doubts that I need to confirm. But before that, I would like to ask:
Friend, if you already have someone you have doubts about, can you tell me?"
The Taoist priest couldn't help but feel happy when he heard Li Yan's previous statement that the doubts had been solved. However, after hearing Li Yan's questioning, he couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, but it was only for a moment. He immediately said, "Yes, there is.
It should be two people..." After saying this, the Taoist priest actually started transmitting the message, obviously he took this matter very seriously.
After hearing this, Li Yan couldn't help but nodded. He didn't expect that Taoist Gong was not as clueless as he saw outside. Many things coincided with his own. It seems that some of his superficial behaviors were intended to confuse outsiders.
, he thought to himself, "It's no wonder that he is a person who has been cultivating for hundreds of years, and he has become better with age. Without any evidence, he has narrowed the scope to an extremely small size. He has taken the opportunity to know some things, and then he has the next step."
Judgment." He immediately said, "Then let's solve the last two doubts." After that, he stood up.
In the early morning, Xuanqing Temple began to operate inside and outside. After everyone knew that the ancestor would return this evening, they felt a lot more settled. The Taoist priest made arrangements with a gloomy face, and the Taoist temple was cleared. He and Hall Master Ji led fifty people to sit outside the main hall. The remaining junior brothers and junior sisters, led by Kong Nantai, each led fifty people to patrol the entire sect. In this way, on the one hand, each corner of the sect was strengthened.
At the same time, he also informed the monks who came to teleport outside the mountain gate today that they can teleport tomorrow; on the other hand, he and Hall Master Ji were guarding the main hall. Although the two men in black robes and the old man with a hunchback were both strong, but here
Under the heavy formations, the Taoist priests believed that they would not move randomly, and would only wait for the ancestor Xuan Qingguan to return in the evening.
When the sun was rising, except for an occasional group of dozens of people patrolling and flying by, the Xuanqing Temple in Nuo Da was silent everywhere. The prosperity of the past was no longer there, and there was only an atmosphere of chilling.
At this time, among the pavilions in the back mountain palace of Xuanqing Temple, there was a simple four-story pavilion with overhanging eaves and hanging bells. A plaque was hung on the second floor in front of it with the words "three vigorous words"
The big character is "Dao Jing Hall". At this time, everything here is quiet and there is no one.
Although disciples were not allowed to come and go at will here in the past, people still came here occasionally, but today it was completely silent, even in the early morning sunshine, it seemed quiet and empty.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared like a ghost under the steps in front of the Dao Jing Hall. His approach was erratic and he did not make any sound at all. This person appeared ten feet away from the steps of the Dao Jing Hall.
He stopped, looked around for a moment, then closed his eyes, released his consciousness, and once again made sure that there was no one around, he suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked at the pavilion in front of him and sneered in his heart. He knew that there was a protective formation four feet and five feet away from the steps in front. If someone stepped into it rashly without knowing it, the formation would instantly
When activated, all kinds of scalp-numbing attacks will come at once. At the same time, the wind chimes on the eaves of the pavilion will blow loudly. In just a moment, everyone in the Taoist temple will arrive.
This place is the place where Xuanqing Temple collects valuable treasures, so the power of the protective formation here is not much inferior to that of the sect's mountain protection formation. Even if the Jindan monks come here, they are helpless without a way to break the ban.
Don't dare to rush in.
This man stood motionless, with a calm expression. After looking around as if patrolling here, he once again made sure that there was no one around him, and then walked forward, but he took every step very carefully. Even so, he was very cautious.
He soon came to a place four or five feet away from the steps. Looking at the flat bluestone ground in front of him, he looked up at the wind chimes on the eaves. He knew that these so-called wind chimes would not ring even if there was a strong wind.
Half a point.
The man stood there, letting go of his consciousness and being vigilant about his surroundings. He stretched out his hand and patted his waist. Two golden objects flew out of the storage bag. He grabbed them and spread his palms. In his palms were
The two halves seem to be cut by sharp knives
The wind chime was cut open and divided into two. This wind chime was very similar to the wind chime on the eaves, except that the wind chimes on the eaves were white and silver, but the two halves of the wind chime in his hand were gold. Looking at the golden wind chime in his hand, he thought to himself
"After this mission is completed, you can leave here. Then you will be rewarded with a large amount of cultivation resources, and your cultivation will improve by leaps and bounds." Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his lips.
It's a long story, but it only happened in an instant. After the man took out the two halves of the wind chime, he threw it into the space in front of him. The two halves of the wind chime turned into two golden lights and shot forward. In the blink of an eye, he reached the top of the open space in front of the steps.
, I saw a wave of distortion in the open space, as if the ground had become illusory and unreal, and then there was a low buzzing sound. Hearing this sound, the man couldn't help but look nervous and became more alert.
He knew that this was a precursor to the opening of the formation channel, and it was also the most dangerous at this time. Although the sound was low, it could still be detected by anyone nearby.
He only felt that his mouth was dry and his heartbeat was racing. Fortunately, the sound was extremely short-lived. It only took a breath or two before disappearing without a trace. The twisted open space and space returned to normal, and the two halves of the golden wind chimes sped up silently.
It flew back towards him, and at the same time, there was only a soft "pop" sound, and a gap opened in the vermilion door in the middle of the first floor on the steps.
After the man put the wind chimes into his storage bag, he knew that he could not waste any time at this time to avoid a long night and many dreams. He swayed towards the steps. The distance of a few feet was just a thought for him. He looked at the eyes that gradually enlarged in front of him.
At the vermilion door, his heartbeat accelerated rapidly, but when he stepped on the ground in front of the door and was about to push the door open and rush in, his face suddenly changed. He felt his feet go soft, and then there was a sharp pain rising from the soles of his feet.
rise.
In a hurry, his whole body flashed with spiritual light, and he quickly flew up a few feet. As he flew up, he looked down and saw a huge sand pit flowing slowly under his feet, and the sand on his feet was
Black smoke was emitting from the boots, and the soles of the feet were already exposed. Despite his quick reaction, the soles of the feet were already covered in blood and flesh. What made his liver and gallbladder split even more was that he clearly felt that even though he had used his spiritual power to protect him,
All over the body, but there seems to be something unknown on the soles of the feet that is expected to spread upward along the tendons and burrow into it.
He was so shocked that he couldn't help but exclaimed "Quicksand Technique...", but he had no time to think about it at the moment. Just as he was protecting himself with spiritual power and was about to fly away, a large suction force actually appeared in the sand pit.
It was an attack from the Quicksand Technique. If he were doing all this normally, even if he was sucked in, he would still have many magical powers that he could use, such as "Earth Escape Technique", "Wall Penetration Technique", etc., but this Quicksand Technique clearly disconcerted him.
All the quicksand techniques I have ever experienced are different. The suction force is extremely violent. With his tenth level of Qi Condensation cultivation, he has actually consumed three to four tenths of his spiritual power in just a short moment. The most terrifying thing is that there is something hidden in this sand pit.
There are some poisons that he has never seen or heard of. His reaction speed just now was not even faster than half a breath. The boots that were considered to be spiritual weapons did not even have the slightest resistance and delay, and turned into fly ash. This made him even more
Scared.< br>
He was even more shocked and puzzled. He had found out all the various formations and mechanisms here through various methods. How could something suddenly happen? He couldn't help but be shocked and angry for a while. "It turns out that this is not a formation."
, but it has a chain formation. After such a long period of inquiring, I haven't got any information. Xuanqing Temple is so hidden. It seems that this mission has failed, and we must leave the Taoist Temple as soon as possible."
This sudden change made him extremely frightened. There was movement here, and someone would come looking for the sound at any time.
He couldn't help but run his spiritual power crazily, but what made him despair was that the suction force under his feet was getting stronger and stronger, and his body was still sinking a little bit. He looked around, and the surroundings were still silent at the moment, which made him feel better.
Some, while looking around, he suddenly raised his hand, and a stream of spiritual power shot out from his hand, like a rope that went straight to the railing on the steps. As long as this spiritual rope entangled the railing, then he would have more power.
If you find a place to borrow strength, you can quickly escape.
But just as his spiritual power rope was less than a foot away from his body, he seemed to have hit a wall, and a dazzling light burst out. The next moment, it turned into little crystal lights and scattered in the air. This made him unable to help
My mind was shaken, and I became even more panicked for a while.
In a hurry, he hurriedly slapped his waist, and a flying sword landed at his feet. Under the control of his spiritual consciousness, the flying sword actually took him flying up a few inches. Just when he was overjoyed, the sand beneath his feet fell.
The suction force of the pit increased again, and the flying sword was instantly pulled into the pit, and his body also sank downwards. This made him frightened and angry, and he hurriedly patted the storage bag again.
A white jade ruler appeared under his feet again. Under the crazy control of his spiritual power, the white jade ruler flew up a few inches with him. However, just after it rose a few inches, the white jade ruler was also sucked into the sand pit.
In this way, in this man's heartache and rage, he sacrificed every spiritual weapon and spiritual treasure one by one, and then they were sucked in and swallowed up by the sand pit one by one. Although he was heartbroken, he was fortunate to have gone through all this trouble.
When he came down, he gradually moved away from the sand pit.
He silently counted the time in his mind. Six breaths had passed since the beginning. He had to escape from this place within ten breaths.
Looking at another dark inkstone under his feet and being sucked into the sand pit again, his heart was bleeding. This was a magic weapon. Its power was as powerful as that of a monk in the early stage of foundation building. There were formations protecting it all around.
The shield trapped him firmly on the sand pit, and he could only fly upward without any help from the surroundings. Not only did the task not be completed this time, he also lost five or six spiritual treasures and magic weapons. Of course, most of them were spiritual treasures before.
Treasure, the magic weapon is just a jet black inkstone. He just discovered that the magic weapon can allow him to fly up farther, but the distance of the Lingbao is much shorter. It can only rise about two to three inches. Just now, the magic weapon of the jet black inkstone actually
It made him rise nearly a foot. As his body rose, the suction force under his feet was gradually weakening, which was a good sign.
At this moment, there is less than two breaths left from ten breaths away.
