Back at Kaiyang Palace, Zuo Sisi and Zhou Jiang left first, while Bailiming was going to Longmen Island.
After learning that Bai Liming was going to visit Elder Tian, Yuan Chaoxi went there happily:
"I haven't seen Grandpa Tian for a long time. I just happened to go visit him."
Bai Liming asked doubtfully: "Do you know Elder Tian?"
Then he burst out laughing. As the legitimate son of the Taoist sect and the beloved daughter of the first Yuan, Yuan Chaoxi would definitely know Elder Tian, so his question was a bit unnecessary.
Yuan Chaoxi said he didn't care and continued: "Elder Tian's level is not lower than that of my father. He is one of the gatekeepers of Kaiyang Palace."
"Gatekeeper?" Bai Liming looked at Yuan Chaoxi with questioning eyes.
"This is not a secret. It's just that you have been in the inner sect for a short time and are ignorant. The so-called gatekeeper is the guardian of the Kaiyang Palace Dharma Protector Array. This array has three array eyes, which are located on Longmen Island and Han.
Crow Island and Fire Turtle Island in the north." Yuan Zhaoxi introduced in detail, Bai Liming suddenly understood and continued to ask curiously:
"That means that Elder Tian is the gatekeeper of Longmen Island's formation. Then who are the gatekeepers of the other two islands?"
Yuan Chaoxi came one by one: "The gatekeeper of Jackdaw Island is the sinister Elder Yin, and the gatekeeper of Fire Turtle Island is the hot-tempered Elder Cao, so I am closer to the old naughty Elder Tian."
The two of them were chatting happily, but they did not notice that under a plane tree in the distance, a woman in green clothes was looking down at their retreating figures with a look of resentment on her face.
The woman in green is none other than Tan Zhenzhen.
When he came to the small courtyard where Elder Tian lived, he saw Yuan Chaoxi coming. Elder Tian was very happy in his heart, but cursed in his mouth:
"Little girl Chao Xi, why are you thinking of coming to see such a bad old man like me? I thought you had forgotten Grandpa Tian."
Yuan Chaoxi said coquettishly: "Where is Grandpa Tian? I'm here to see you."
Then he put on a pitiful look:
"Sigh...Grandpa Tian is a little biased. Not only did he accept Baili Ming as his nominal disciple, he also taught him many powerful techniques. He didn't even think of teaching Xi'er."
Elder Tian laughed loudly and said, "Xi'er, if you want to learn, Grandpa Tian will definitely give you all I have to teach you. Just don't find it boring."
After a few more chats, Bai Liming explained his purpose.
Elder Tian first looked through the book "Mindfulness Dafa", and then carefully explored the branch. Then he twirled his snow-white beard at the corners of his mouth and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said in a deep voice:
"Although this spiritual method is a heretical one, it is not without its merits. There are thousands of paths to pursue the great path. Although they are different, they lead to the same destination."
"For example, this method of refining demon pills to enhance the realm, if improved, can quickly absorb the spiritual power in the pill to restore the mana, and even improve the realm in a short time. In critical moments, it is a rare life-saving method."
Bai Liming and Yuan Zhaoxi looked surprised, neither of them thought that this crooked way could have some uses.
Elder Tian continued: "And this branch should be the branch of the ancient sacred tree Fuyao. It contains an innate spiritual power, which seems to be beneficial to the divine soul method. Let's put this branch and the booklet here first, and I will take a closer look.
Study, study.”
…
After leaving the courtyard, Bai Liming originally wanted to meet Tan Zhenzhen, Cui Bingwen and Niu Erhu, but Master Yu Lu sent someone to look for him, saying that Kaiyang Star Lord Sheng Yang wanted to summon the training personnel, so he had no choice but to meet with them.
Yuan Zhaoxi returned to Kaiyang Island together.
As soon as the two set foot on Kaiyang Island, they unexpectedly bumped into Bian Changji who was about to leave in a boat.
Seeing his long-lost companion, Yuan Zhaoxi stepped forward excitedly and asked, "Changji, your punishment is over. That's great. I'll make an appointment with Xiaoyao, Chengwen, and Chengwu tonight to celebrate you together."
Bian Changji glared at Bai Liming fiercely, then pulled Yuan Chaoxi aside and said reproachfully:
"Chao Xi, if you still think of me as a friend, you shouldn't have anything to do with Bai Liming."
Although Yuan Chaoxi was a little unhappy when he heard this, he understood Bian Changji's mood and comforted him:
"Changji, I am mainly to blame for that matter. If I had not misunderstood Bai Liming first, the unpleasant things would not have happened later. It is better to dissolve enemies than to end them. Since it was a misunderstanding, why don't you two meet and let go of your grudges with a smile.
"
Bian Zhangji had deep resentment in his heart and said in a cold tone: "Huh, you and him have a misunderstanding, but he and I only have hatred. I still say the same thing. If you still think of me as a friend, don't talk to this person anymore."
Baili Ming has some contacts."
Although there was a distance between them, but with his cultivation in the middle stage of Dan Condensation, Baili Ming could really hear it in his ears. Although he was a little annoyed, he didn't care too much. What he thought was, why bother with Tiao Liang?
Having the knowledge of a clown only adds to your troubles.
When Yuan Chaoxi heard this, his anger surged up and he said coldly:
"Bian Changji, how can you be so narrow-minded? A grown man is not as open-minded as a little girl like me. Besides, you can't control who I want to associate with, and you don't have the right to control it. Hum, Bai Liming, let's go."
After saying that, he turned around and left. Baili Ming shook his head helplessly and followed closely.
When the side commander saw this, he panicked. His cold attitude just now disappeared. With a sad face, he hurriedly apologized:
"Chao Xi, Chao Xi, listen to me, I'm just unhappy and complaining."
However, Yuan Chaoxi did not stop, leaving Bian Changji standing there with a depressed look on his face. After the two of them walked away, Bian Changji murmured viciously:
"Bai Liming, you and I are incompatible with each other. Sooner or later, your life will be worse than death."
…
When Bai Liming and Yuan Zhaoxi arrived at the main hall of Kaiyang Palace, all the training disciples were present, and the leading mage Yu Lu signaled them to stand at the front of the team.
Not long after, Kaiyang Xingjun Shengyang walked into the hall with a solemn demeanor.
He first praised the disciples for their outstanding performance in this experience, and encouraged the disciples to have the courage to practice and not to slack off. Although they were all high-sounding words, the disciples were very excited when they heard it.
Afterwards, all the disciples who participated in the training will be rewarded with a bottle of Peiyuan Pill. Everyone was extremely happy when they heard this and praised in low voices.
Sheng Yang coughed a few times, and all the disciples stopped whispering, and he continued:
"During this training, there was a team that performed extremely well, was brave and resourceful, and single-handedly uncovered a conspiracy to turn humans into demons. Here we would like to address the four disciples Yuan Chaoxi, Bai Liming, Zuo Sisi, and Zhou Jiang.
Offer praise and reward.”
Then the Taoist boy brought a tray, and Sheng Yang removed the red silk covering the tray, revealing the items inside.
Four black iron blocks the size of walnuts, with stars flashing on their surfaces, as if they were plucked from the night.
While everyone was guessing what this thing was, Yuan Chaoxi, who was well-informed, exclaimed when he saw this thing: "Ah, it's star iron!"
