A thin layer of gray-white miasma spread over the desolate and wild swamp. Occasionally, tiny lightning flashes appeared and flashed. Everything was quiet and empty. You could hear the faint whistling of the wind above. A tall woman with a cold expression stood on the top of a sudden rock mountain in the independent swamp. The posture is tall and graceful.
"Xueqiu, go and take a peek. When will Mr. Donkey come out of seclusion?"
Following the clear command of Shui Qingru, the snow-white thunder beast floating on the top of the gurgling spring rolled up and roared at the owner on the top of the mountain with a "woof", leaped several feet high, and made a fierce "plop" Plunging into the spring, countless muddy splashes were splashed.
Shui Qingru couldn't wait any longer. One month after her master's wedding, she had to return to the sect early to do some errands and sweep the posters. Mr. Lu had been out of seclusion for three months more than two years ago, and he had been in seclusion for a long time in the blink of an eye. I wonder when Mr. Lu will be promoted?
She absolutely cannot miss the wedding between Master and Taoist Master Yun.
In the past two months, she had not indulged in cultivation anymore, fearing that she would accidentally miss the date.
After waiting for a long time, a thunder beast covered in mud emerged from the dense thunder grass in the distance. The mud and water flew over, and after shaking a few times, it returned to its snow-white and fluffy appearance.
"You're saying that there's something unusual going on underground, maybe Lord Donkey is looking for a breakthrough?"
Shui Qingru looked at the little beast squatting in front of her and gesturing with its forelimbs, she guessed and asked.
The little beast's head is connected, and it understands human nature. It has not yet refined the bones in its throat, cannot speak human language, has little contact with other monsters, and cannot even speak complete monster language.
The water was as clear as flying. More than twenty miles away to the north, I stepped on the tips of the grass blades and carefully felt the movement in the muddy water below.
Mr. Donkey had a relationship with the great demon of Araki City, and the wine world was vast. He obtained some secret information through repeated visits. He searched under the swamp many years ago and found three remnants of the ancient thunder pool, so he chose the one closest to Yanshan that was slightly complete. , arrange the array as a retreat place for latent cultivation.
After a while, Shui Qingru flew back to the top of the rock mountain, waved to the naughty little beast that kept spinning around her and biting its tail, and told it to go play in the swamp.
Mr. Donkey's seclusion has reached a critical moment. She has to wait a few more days to protect Mr. Donkey. Although there will be no other monsters within fifty miles of this swamp, if there is a big movement behind and attracts a big monster to investigate, she may not be here. trouble.
Late at night one day later, Shui Qingru, who was sitting cross-legged on the top of the rock mountain, suddenly opened her eyes.
The unusual movements of the swamp springs erupting from time to time attracted the attention of the great demon of Araki City. She flew to the north near the muddy water spurting out several feet high. Here, the thunderous aura accumulated more and more intensely, and a "sizzling" sound was heard in the air. The thunder beast It's a great time to play with the ups and downs of the gush of muddy water.
"Fellow Taoist, I've invited you. There's a lot of movement below, but Taoist Lu is about to make a breakthrough?"
A tall and thin man with disheveled beard and dark green eyes and red cheeks raised his hands and asked, "Three fourth-level demons came to Araki City. They stood twenty miles away and did not approach any further."
Shui Qingru returned the favor with her hands raised: "You are so polite, fellow Taoist, this is a critical moment for Mr. Donkey, so please don't approach me. I'm sorry!"
The red-cheeked man laughed and said, "We are protecting Brother Lu and will not go near him."
The three demons were scattered in three directions, sitting cross-legged in the air and making no sound.
When they were drinking with Lu Zijin, they mentioned that when the Lu brothers broke through, they would come to protect the law, not for anything else but because they were both members of the demon clan and had similar personalities.
In the entire Nanyuan Continent, the demon clan has just gained a new fifth-level demon. The human race is very powerful, which is not a good thing for them.
Shui Qingru stared at the erupting spring a hundred feet away, her aura gathering but not releasing. As long as the demon cultivator didn't approach, she ignored it and dared to fly within ten miles. No wonder she drew her sword at him.
After so many years of superimposing her fist power to temper her body and cultivate her sword power, her strength is among the best in the fourth level.
She is different from Lezi who specializes in martial arts. She has left fist and right sword, and is good at both boxing and sword. She has no flaws in herself. The most common straight punch can blast out overlapping thunder punches, creating an endless momentum of complementary offense and defense.
The use of the sword is extremely simple, but it is extremely lethal, and there are no fancy sword styles.
He was praised by the Earth Protector as "the next generation's best master of the Immortal Spirit Temple" and admired his decisive nature in killing.
Zhang Xuanan could challenge Chen Zhong, Shi Nanguan, and even Wei Jingjie, but he never wanted to compete with his senior sister. It was a real fight, and every time he was injured on the line of life and death, it was just asking for abuse. He could laugh and make friends with everyone, including Shan Shan
Chief, Taoist Master Yue, only when facing his senior sister, he was respectful and did not dare to be cunning. Nothing else, he was afraid of the shadow left by being taught a lesson.
As the night passed, the swamp spring erupted intermittently. Hundreds of feet of thunder accumulated nearby, and the water mist lingered. From time to time, thunder light as thick as a finger appeared, flickering and exploding. The thunder beast swam in it and absorbed the fine thunder light like a fish in water.
At noon, the thunder beast suddenly fled in a panic and burst into a thick thunder mist.
Shui Qingru also noticed it and stepped back. He heard a loud thunderous noise accompanied by muddy water spraying into the air. The thunder was dazzling and a violent wind swept across. Then he heard Donkey's unique high-pitched and powerful cry.
The news spread hundreds of miles away.
"Ah uh... ah... uh... I'm at level five!"
As the thunder light dissipated, a huge man with a burly, thick beard and halberd-like hair and a face as black as coal was revealed. His appearance was completely different from his previous appearance, and a rough and heroic aura hit his face.
Lu Zijin has been cultivating here for nearly forty years. Once he broke through and became vigorous, he no longer needed the witch treasures and transformation magic to transform into a human form.
To create the hero in your heart, just ask: Is it fierce?
The thunder donkey was affected by the strong wind, became dizzy, fell into the muddy water waves and was submerged. When it reappeared three miles away, the little beast came out of the swamp in embarrassment, dragging the mud and water, and was so angry that it cursed "barking".
.
Shui Qingru had a smile on her face and held her hands in congratulations.
The three great demons in the distance flew forward and saluted together, their faces full of envy, and congratulated them.
"Haha, please get up. Brother Ghost Face, if you can help me, come and protect the Dharma. Thank you!"
Lu Zi just broke through, but he still couldn't completely control the floating aura on his body. He exchanged a few polite words with the three-headed monster, then turned back and asked Shui Qingru, "What time is it now, and how long until the wedding of the master of the temple?"
"Today is July 20th, and Master's wedding will be on the 15th of next month."
"Fortunately, I didn't miss it."
Lu Zijin was relieved, and said to the three great demons: "Let's go to Huangmu City. I will accept the identity of the great elder of Huangmu City. Time is short, let's keep the ceremony simple!"
The three demon cultivators were overjoyed. This was the agreement they made many years ago during a drinking session. They thought Brother Lu was a noble man who forgot things and refused to acknowledge this.
Shui Qingru watched the four of them fly eastward, but she did not follow them.
Mr. Donkey has advanced to the fifth level, but he is still the same Mr. Donkey who loves to make friends. Like Master, having more friends makes life easier. As she practices, she prefers to be alone and quiet more and more, and she cannot learn to be lively.
Mr. Donkey's return this time will definitely bring the reputation and prestige of Xianling Temple to a higher level.
Waiting until evening, Lu Zijin came over smelling of alcohol and threw a spirit-filled bead to the little beast who turned its head and ignored him. Seeing the little beast jump up and swallow it in one gulp, he laughed and cursed: "You have some backbone."
You don’t want to eat?”
The thunder beast said "woof, woof" to each other.
Lu Zi reached out and caught the little guy who was trying to escape, turned it around, slapped it twice on the buttocks, and put the little beast with its tail between its legs and its drooping ears on its shoulder.
