Moju Lake is not big, only a few hundred meters in diameter.
This so-called chrysanthemum appreciation meeting, the number of people was small, less than a hundred, and they were all concentrated on the wider east side. Naturally, they were basically demon cultivators from the Defying Heaven Alliance.
Cao Jiyun looked a little deep, but in fact he was a quite bold and interesting demon cultivator. While introducing each other, he personally arranged You Wuji and Qian Dan at the top of the main table to his right. Then he sat down.
, he immediately raised his wine glass and began to tell various anecdotes about Moju Lake. Before he knew it, everyone was drinking and laughing.
Since he is a demon cultivator from the Heaven-defying Alliance, he cannot help but tell some shocking lies. Among them was a demon cultivator, looking at the ink chrysanthemums all over the mountains and plains all around, he pretended to be drunk and shouted, "I think back then, when Chi followed Senior Cao, there were
Once, I was trapped near here and was surrounded and killed by more than ten so-called righteous people in Taiyuan Prefecture. I almost died. But I didn't expect that I am back now!"
Bang bang, two crisp clapping sounds suddenly sounded. Then Cao Jiyun touched his palms and said with a smile, "Okay! The devil who saved me before is here again!" As soon as he finished speaking, there was movement on the surrounding mountains.
In all directions, two tall black chrysanthemums rose from the ground and gathered in the sky above the pond. They were swaying endlessly. The black evil energy was rolling, and the fragrance was even worse. Then, they were already in full bloom, and they bloomed together again.
Layer after layer, the flowers bloomed undefeated. But all I saw was the endless red petals in the black.
Flowing down endlessly. Finally, from the heart of the eight ink chrysanthemums, a peerless beauty suddenly flew out. Her long hair, face and body were also black and red, and she looked very charming and ghostly. The most rare thing
Yes, these eight beauties have no hair on their heads, only some petals stuck to a few vital points.
Suddenly, waves of applause sounded from below. Needless to say, those demon cultivators did not hide their appreciation and desire at all.
The members of the mission who were standing far behind You Wuji and Qian Dan couldn't help but swallow their saliva. They felt short of breath and quickened their heartbeats. Some of them forced themselves to lower their heads, but were teased by those next to them and lost their composure.
You cannot enter the country and follow the local customs.
These eight beauties slowly landed on the pool, stepped on the waves with bare feet, sang and danced, spread out their branches without flowers, breathed in the demonic energy and made fragrant sounds, and sometimes went in and out of the water, and even landed on the shore like flowers attacking people...
"It's just a few flower demons, but there were so many Duobao Pavilions in the capital back then." Qian Dan looked as normal and said softly, then looked back and looked at the members of the mission.
You Wuji squinted his eyes and looked ahead, secretly sending a message, "These flower demons are a little weird." As for how weird they were, there was no further explanation.
Just singing and dancing, the eight beauties, surrounded by each other, slowly disappeared into the pool, only to see the mighty evil energy, still surging, black with red, blooming like ink chrysanthemums.
"Back then, I was like this, outnumbered and outnumbered. Everyone was covered in blood, just like this ink chrysanthemum, black and red, with a charming glow." Cao Jiyun, with a red face, seemed to be a little drunk, said loudly, "
Mo Ruo then renamed the ink chrysanthemums all over the mountains and plains as magic chrysanthemums!"
As soon as these words came out, the demon cultivators from the Heaven Defying Alliance clapped their hands and applauded.
Then Cao Jiyun waved his hand, and a shiny black magic stone flew out of his sleeve.
"Educate the magic crystal?!" someone immediately exclaimed.
But then they saw Cao Jiyun stretch out his finger and pop out a golden light, hitting the magic stone. The magic stone immediately broke into four small pieces and flew towards the southeast, northwest and northwest. Then, suddenly, fierce flames erupted from the inside and outside, like a meteorite.
Falling. As it falls, each piece of magic stone continues to burn and releases a lot of powdery dust, which looks like a black rain from a distance.
Everyone present who knew the goods nodded, and some even couldn't help but show a hint of envy. It was indeed the magic crystal, and it was indeed worthy of the work of a true spirit monk. This magic crystal was a very rare magic stone.
Only exists in places deep in the earth where evil energy accumulates
, it contains extremely pure natural demonic energy, which is extremely precious to demon cultivators. The piece just now, although not big but not small, is indeed priceless, but Cao Jiyun actually used it as manure fertilizer just for a joke.
Used to transform the environment here.
When the dust and fine powder turned into by the burning of the magic crystal are scattered, the pure demonic energy begins to be released, spreads out, is thick and deep, wraps around the mountains, and rushes straight to the lower places like a waterfall, like waves and flowers.
Open. The people beside the pond feel a bit like dark clouds are pressing down on the city.
Suddenly, another demon cultivator exclaimed. The ink chrysanthemums all over the mountains and plains also began to undergo strange changes. Some ink chrysanthemums could not bear it, withered and died, and disappeared; some grew rapidly, with roots and stems that were much larger than before.
It has grown several times thicker, and the black and red flowers have become as big as a basin, becoming darker and darker and redder and redder.
At this moment, a demonic cultivator suddenly couldn't help but flew up and flew towards the surrounding heights. It seemed to be going upstream, but in fact it was extremely fast. In the end, the figure disappeared, and only waves of waves were heard.
Moaning happily.
The demon cultivators present immediately woke up and looked towards Cao Jiyun. Cao Jiyun suddenly smiled at You Wuji and Qian Dan and said, "This cultivating demon crystal is also applicable to demon cultivators when it transforms the world. Moreover, because of the simulation during it,
a trace
The changes in heaven and earth are also beneficial to the monks of other sects. The Yongzhou envoy came from afar, and it coincides with the meeting. It might as well send someone in to temper it. Otherwise, if I let this group of people have it all, I'm afraid I
Big brother will blame me."
Before he finished speaking, those demon cultivators from the Heaven-defying Alliance who were interested could not help but speak out one after another, shouting and asking the people from the Yongzhou mission to quickly follow them in.
Is this a secret competition? What Cao Jiyun said just now does make some sense. Moreover, many members of the Yongzhou mission are demon cultivators. You Wuji and Qian Dan looked at each other and nodded immediately.
Cao Jiyun laughed and waved his hand.
Those demonic cultivators thanked him hurriedly and flew away in all directions.
You Wuji and Qian Dan called the members of the envoy behind them to come forward, explained the situation in front of them, and gave some instructions. These people, like those demon cultivators, rushed towards the mountains and plains above.
Mo Ju flew away.
At this moment, Tan Bian, in addition to some ordinary maids and ceremonial guards, there were only Cao Jiyun and a personal guard beside him, You Wuji and Qian Dan, and a few others, who seemed to have some background and maintained their identities, still sitting there. Then
The personal guard, needless to say, stood there without squinting or saying a word.
Cao Jiyun, however, did not release his spiritual consciousness at all to track down the
Mountains and mountains are surrounded by turbulent demonic clouds, and they frequently raise their glasses to drink with great pride.
In this way, after You Wuji and Qian Dan began to investigate a little, they simply withdrew their consciousness and chatted and laughed with Cao Jiyun and several others.
It seems that Cao Jiyun has not only fought in Taiyuan Mansion, but also stayed in Taiyuan Mansion for many years. When talking about the anecdotes of Taiyuan Mansion, he knows it very well and can easily pick it up, including You Wuji and Qian Dan.
Everyone was nodding their heads after hearing this, not to mention those few people.
At this time, there was a wave of spiritual energy in the direction of Taiyuan Fucheng, and then three figures flew straight over. The leader in the middle had a figure and appearance that were about 70% similar to Cao Jiyun, but his skin color was darker, and the demonic energy condensed around him was also deeper. a little.
Sure enough, Cao Jiyun looked up and stood up with a smile, "My eldest brother is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Jiyun's eldest brother, Cao Siyuan, the current head of Taiyuan Mansion, and two followers, had landed steadily on the edge of the pool. He glanced at You Wuji and Qian Dan without any trace, and did not wait for Cao Jiyun's introduction. , then smiled lightly and said, "You must be Daoyou He and Daoyou Qian from Yongzhou?"
You Wuji and Qian Dan each reported their names. Of course, You Wuji called himself He Qifeng, and Qian Dan called himself Qian Feng.
Cao Siyuan nodded, "Yongzhou has always been on good terms with our Defiant Alliance. Since the two of you are passing by Taiyuan Mansion, you might as well stay a little longer so that we can enjoy our friendship as landlords." Perhaps it was due to kung fu, and his tone It's also very light, and with some words of joyful drinking, it feels like constipation.
You Wuji and Qian Dan had seen each other a lot and didn't make any fuss. Naturally, they weren't too enthusiastic and they only thanked them politely.
At this time, Cao Siyuan looked at Cao Jiyun and said, "You are willing to bear it, and you even took out the magic crystal."
Cao Jiyun, who was so arrogant just now, sat there, smiled and touched his head, "There is a new era and a new atmosphere. Now that Taiyuan Mansion is owned by our Heaven-defying Alliance, there must be some changes. What's more, after hiring today, Our Taiyuan Prefecture will definitely have more available talents."
"We are guests here. Don't hurt the people brought by the two fellow Taoists." Cao Siyuan said, raising his glass, "Come, I'll give you a drink, fellow Taoist He, and give me a drink, fellow Taoist Qian."
Suddenly, a figure flew out of the demonic energy all over the mountains and plains, and then fell straight down without saying a word. It was obviously dead.
You Wuji and Qian Dan hurriedly checked, and then breathed a sigh of relief. The person who died was an unknown demon cultivator.
A ray of golden light shot out from Cao Jiyun's fingertips and landed on the corpse. A raging flame suddenly rose and the corpse was completely cremated in an instant.
"You two Taoist friends don't have to worry. After the war, the real monks in Taiyuan Prefecture are really weak and useless." Cao Jiyun put away his golden fingers and smiled at You Wuji and Qian Dan.
You Wuji was about to be polite.
The temperature during the banquet dropped sharply, and Cao Siyuan sat there with a smile but not a smile. The demonic energy in his chest was like a ghost fire, and the flames beat but released a slight chill.
Cao Jiyun waved his hands secretly to You Wuji and Qian Dan, then lowered his head and stopped making any sound.
At this time, it was the demon cultivators who maintained their identities and did not get up to share the benefits of nourishing the magic crystal. They carefully spoke to each other and managed to maintain the atmosphere of the scene.
During this period, from time to time, figures flew out from the surging demonic energy, some flew back into the demonic aura, and some fell straight down towards the Moju Pond below.
But until this moment, not a single member of the Yongzhou mission had been seen. The injured and dead were all demonic cultivators from the Heaven Defying Alliance.
If Wuxu were here, he would naturally not be able to sit still. But You Wuji and Qian Dan are both ruthless characters. When they saw the Cao brothers, they didn't even look at them. They looked like they didn't care or were training with iron blood. Naturally, he couldn't wipe his face off. He maintained his identity and acted as if his appearance remained unchanged despite the collapse of the mountain.
Of course, the two of them had communicated in private, but in the end they always believed that it didn't matter if a few died. How could one travel in the world without being stabbed or killed? Moreover, they did not promise to Wuxu to ensure everyone's safety.
What's more, if you survive this experience without dying, you will definitely make great progress.
So, Tan watched the magic cloud rise and the ink chrysanthemums bloom together.
After a while, no more figures flew out, but the competition or fighting became more intense. It seemed that those who were eliminated just now were all too weak, which is why they died so quickly and were so public and embarrassing. Now, those who remain,
They are all elites, all of them are sneaking around
At the bottom of this deep magic cloud, it is as quiet as a reef and as moving as a hidden arrow. Only the ink chrysanthemum is much taller than before. A group of red stamens hidden in the black flower the size of a millstone looks like a
The strange smiling face seemed to be smiling at the invisible fight.
"Where are the eight peerless beauties from before?" Cao Siyuan suddenly asked.
Cao Jiyun was stunned for a moment, then touched his head and said with a smile, "If the eldest brother likes it, the younger brother will personally send it over tomorrow."
Cao Siyuan's face sank, "Don't be fooled. Although those eight women have demonic aura, they are flower demons, so they must be carefully investigated."
Cao Jiyun was stunned again, and then he smiled bitterly, "The Great Zhou Dynasty can still be a meritocracy, but why do we, the Anti-Tian Alliance, have so many opinions? Besides, there are only a few flower demons, how can we cause trouble?"
Cao Siyuan stood up, crossed his arms and saluted slightly to You Wuji and Qian Dan, "There are still important things in the city. If you two are still in Taiyuan Mansion, we will talk about it tomorrow." After that, he was about to leave.
Cao Jiyun suddenly panicked and said hurriedly, "Brother, don't be angry. I'll call them out right now." After that, he screamed into the pool.
The water in the pool was surging, and the eight women slowly emerged from the water. After hesitating for a moment, they slowly flew towards the edge of the pool.
Cao Siyuan only glanced at it and snorted coldly, "If you are not a demon cultivator, you must settle in our Heaven Defying Alliance. You must report to the nearest place and conduct a strict investigation. Do you know?"
"Brother!" With the beautiful lady in front, Cao Siyuan's voice was so stern, Cao Jiyun's face was a little worried, "My younger brother is also a true spiritual monk now. I raise a few flower demons, so I'm afraid it doesn't need to be like this, right?"
What is this? You Wuji and Qian Dan shook their heads secretly. While the two brothers were competing, they wanted to secretly investigate the situation of the members of the mission under the surrounding demonic clouds.
At this moment, the magic cloud began to sink rapidly, and part of it penetrated directly into the towering tree.
Among the ink chrysanthemums; in the blink of an eye, dust returns to dust to dust.
Then, more than ten figures were seen flying down towards the edge of the pool one after another.
You Wuji and Qian Dan's hearts sank, and their expressions changed. Among the more than ten figures, only two were recognized. Niu Er and Xie Lingyun! In other words, the only remaining members of the Yongzhou mission were Niu Er and Xie Lingyun.
Thanks to Lingyun! He’s still quite injured!
"There's something weird, leave quickly." Niu Er and Xie Lingyun came to You Wuji and Qian Dan and whispered hoarsely.
You Wuji and Qian Dan ignored them. How could they just leave like this? Although they both had a death target in mind, too many people died at once! How could Wuxu explain to him if he just left like this?
The Cao brothers also temporarily stopped arguing. But they did look quite happy. After all, they are demon cultivators. Those who die in the competition will die. Those who survive are elites who can be cultivated and put to great use.
Therefore, Cao Siyuan, who had always been cold and gloomy, also managed a rare smile. After a quick glance, he took out a bottle of elixir and said, "I'll reward you with the heaven-defying elixir..."
Before he finished speaking, something happened immediately. The dozen or so surviving demon cultivators flew towards Cao Siyuan as if they were crazy, their haggard eyes became extremely bright, and their painful moans turned into hysterical roars. Look.
Going up, it seemed as if he was heading towards the Heaven-defying Pill, but the murderous aura had completely enveloped Cao Siyuan and the two followers behind him.
The two followers flew out first, and the black armor emerged. One held a sword, and the other swung a sword. Wherever the sword passed, the void shook, and black gaps opened. It looked extremely terrifying, like a natural chasm, insurmountable.
Cao Siyuan turned around with his hands behind his back and looked at Cao Jiyun coldly, "You want to kill me?"
Cao Jiyun smiled, stretched out his left hand, raised his index finger to his mouth, and closed his eyes slightly, "Brother, if I don't kill you, I'm sorry for Taiyuan Prefecture."
"I'm sorry Taiyuan Mansion?" Cao Siyuan looked up to the sky and laughed, "I'm afraid you have forgotten your mission! Come on, come on, I want you to kill me today!"
"In Taiyuan Mansion, half of the aristocratic families and their younger brothers have been persuaded to surrender, but you took the opportunity to kill them!"
"Taiyuan Prefecture, all merchants, you use your best to plunder them!"
Every time Cao Jiyun said a word, one of his fingers turned golden. At the same time, every time he said a word, the dozen or so demon cultivators became more crazy, trying their best to injure themselves or even die, in order to make the two Cao Siyuan
Following the disability.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Cao Siyuan sneered again and again, "You are looking at something worthless! The majestic demon flame soul-slaying finger was made into golden yellow by you!" After saying that, his aura increased to the extreme, and the demonic energy condensed all over his body.
It formed into balls of black flames, cold and strange, and looked like a big devil in every move.
"Taiyuan Mansion, you slaughtered most of the ordinary people in one night just to practice Hellfire!"
"In Taiyuan Mansion, you slaughter most of the three religions and nine schools!"
...
When his fingers were golden, Cao Jiyun flew up, then put his hands together and slashed towards Cao Si far away.
The golden light lasers intertwined and turned into a dazzling white light.
In an instant, Cao Siyuan was cut in half!
"Ah!" Cao Siyuan looked up to the sky and screamed in extreme pain, shouting, "impossible!"
From the beginning to the end, his Hellfire was simply vulnerable. He didn't believe it at all, and stared at Cao Jiyun with his eyes fixed on him, "Impossible! You are not Cao Jiyun! Who are you?!"
"Brother, I'm not Cao Jiyun, who am I?!" Cao Jiyun seemed to be going crazy. He spread his hands and opened his bow left and right, flying like a knife.
Cao Siyuan screamed in pain again and again. His head was cut off, and his limbs were also cut off! Suddenly, he woke up, stared at the finger on Cao Jiyun's left index finger, and screamed in horror, "Xuan Yang
stone?!"
Another ray of white light fell like a rainbow, splitting Cao Siyuan's head into two halves. The body of consciousness that had fled in panic also disappeared in an instant in the white light.
At this time, the two followers were also annihilated, at the cost of three demon cultivators being seriously injured. However, they were immediately sent to the top of the ink chrysanthemum flower by the flower demon on the side; under the control of the flower demon, the ink chrysanthemum flower closed itself, and the
The injured were wrapped in layers.
This wonderful turn of events may seem long but is actually very short. You Wuji and Qian Dan, who were unwilling to leave just like that, looked on dumbfounded. Just when they wanted to leave, Cao Jiyun and nearly ten demon cultivators who could not be calculated by common sense
, and eight flower demons, all looking at the two of them.
"Senior, before Cao Siyuan died, he mentioned Xuanyang Stone. Could it be that Cao Jiyun was backed by Xuanyang Star?" Qian Dan secretly sent a message to You Wuji.
You Wuji nodded without trace, "Members of the mission, I remember that in addition to these, the wild monk Wuxu seems to have added four more names?"
Qian Dan replied, "Izumo from Taoism, Wei Shang from Casino, and two more. In fact, that's enough."
You Wuji smiled bitterly and said, "Enough is enough. If Niu Er and Xie Lingyun die, they will die. But if all the people you and I brought are dead, wouldn't it be very shameful?"
Qian Dan was silent for a moment, "If the person behind the scenes doesn't come forward, you and I can join forces and, without revealing their true identities, we can be somewhat sure that we can take Niu Er and Xie Lingyun and escape safely, but it may be a little embarrassing and not conducive to the situation."
Conduct business in Beijing."
At this time, Cao Jiyun, who was opposite him, sighed with drunken eyes and spoke, "I originally invited you two to come here to appreciate the chrysanthemums today, but I didn't want to cause such a family scandal."
You Wuji and Qian Dan are both human spirits. After hearing this, they immediately said,
"I didn't expect that your brother would be so depraved and heinous."
"We wanted to help, but this is Brother Cao's family matter, so we have to sit back and watch."
"Brother Cao, it seems that he is more suitable to be the master of Taiyuan Palace."
"The Anti-Tian Alliance and Yongzhou have always been on good terms. We are waiting for you in Yongzhou to say goodbye today."
Cao Jiyun smiled and said, "A thousand cups of wine is too little to meet a close friend, and half a sentence is enough to talk without speculation. Cao feels that he has become more and more attached to the two Taoist friends. Why don't you two spend more time in Taiyuan Mansion?"
If the tiger doesn't show off its power, it thinks I'm a sick cat! You Wuji laughed angrily and didn't even look at Cao Jiyun. He only looked around and said, "Yin and Yang are infinite, and the winding paths lead to secluded places." Then he and Qian Dan took the cow with them.
Er and Xie Lingyun drifted away, no one dared to stop them.
