"Friend?" Bai Xiaoyun didn't understand what he meant.
"Little Gui, can you show yourself?" Shen Luo asked through telepathy.
After waiting for a while, there was no response. When Shen Luo was about to ask again, a whirlpool appeared on the water beside him, and a hazy green figure emerged from it.
Shen Luo looked at him and saw that he had a square face and an ordinary appearance. He looked to be in his thirties or forties, but his body was slightly stooped. He wore a black robe, and his hands were hanging by his side, reaching his knees.
Bai Xiaoyun could tell at a glance that he was a demon soul, and his heart couldn't help but tighten. He was surprised by his identity, and he was also surprised that he didn't notice his existence at all.
"I'm sorry. Once my real body moves, it will cause too much of a commotion, so I can only show myself in this form." The black-robed man cupped his hands at Shen Luo.
"This is …" Bai Xiaoyun looked at Shen Luo and asked.
"This is Fellow Taoist Mountain Turtle. He used to be my contracted beast. Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for a thousand years. This is Bai Xiaoyun, an old friend of mine. "Shen Luo introduced them to each other.
"Just call me Little Gui." The black-robed man smiled and said.
"Fellow Taoist, your magical powers are extraordinary. I can't even detect your presence." Bai Xiaoyun sighed sincerely.
"I've been resting at the bottom of the Moon Mirror Lake all year round, and I haven't moved for more than a hundred years. My aura has already merged with this place, so it's not easy to detect me." Little Gui explained.
"Little Gui, since you've been entrenched here, do you know if there's an underground river that connects the inside and outside of the Sea Suppression Stronghold? We want to pass through here and enter the Sea Suppression Stronghold. "Shen Luo asked.
"Yuzhou is close to the sea, and there are many underground caves. This Moon Mirror Lake is connected to many waterways, but I haven't checked them, so I don't know if there's an underground river that leads to the Sea Suppression Stronghold. You wait here for a moment, and I'll tell my descendants to check it out first. "Little Gui thought for a moment and said slowly.
"Thank you." Bai Xiaoyun thanked him.
The figure of the black-robed man turned around and shrank into a whirlpool of water that appeared below him. Then, he disappeared.
Shen Luo and Bai Xiaoyun stepped on the water and returned to the small island in the center of the lake.
The two of them talked about what happened after they parted ways, and a layer of haze appeared in their hearts.
"I didn't expect the situation at the seaside stronghold to be so troublesome. Shen Luo asked, "Is that Mountain Demon really that astute?"
"I didn't dare to get close to the city. I was a thousand feet away and deliberately hid my aura. As a result, it still heard my movement. Then a dacheng stage dog monster rushed out of the city and went straight to my hiding place. It was also because I wanted to shake him off that I was unable to rush back in time, allowing the Golden Falcon to find you, "said Bai Xiaoyun indignantly.
"If that's the case, even if we can find the underground secret passage, we may not be able to pass through safely …" Shen Luo hammered his palm with one hand and said worriedly.
"We can't care about this now. Look at this small Yu Zhou, there are so many big monsters entrenched here. I'm afraid that they are plotting something big. If we continue to stay here, it will definitely not be a good thing." Bai Xiaoyun frowned and said.
"You're right. I also have this feeling. This time, we can only take the risk and try." Shen Luo nodded and said.
"Previously, you said that the Golden Falcon Great Demon chased you into the underground river. If that's the case, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to find this place by following the traces of the water." Bai Xiaoyun suddenly recalled something and said.
"Originally, I also planned to take a little rest and leave with them, but I was delayed by meeting Little Gui again. Fortunately, you found here first." Shen Luo nodded and said.
"It can be regarded as a great fortune in misfortune. However, this fellow Daoist Mountain Turtle might really be able to help us. As long as we find the way, we will immediately leave. However, before that, we should make some arrangements to prevent any accidents. "Bai Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment and said.
"What arrangements?" Shen Luo's eyes lit up slightly and immediately asked.
"The size of this island is neither big nor small. It is suitable to set up an 'Acalanatha Formation'." Bai Xiaoyun said.
"Acalanatha Formation?" Shen Luo said in surprise.
"The Acalanatha Formation is the Buddhist Sect's Immovable Bodhisattva. The meaning of immobility is that the heart is firm and unshakable. It is a defensive formation secretly passed down in the Life Transformation Temple. It requires a Buddhist item as the foundation of the formation and five cultivators to guard the five extremes — East, South, West, North, and Central. They will chant the Acalanatha Incantation to activate the formation. Thus, it has an incomparably strong defensive power." Bai Xiaoyun explained.
"I see. There is no time to lose. Let's set it up quickly." Shen Luo was delighted and said hurriedly.
Bai Xiaoyun nodded and a silver bracelet on his wrist suddenly lit up. Then, a yellowed ancient Buddhist scripture appeared and was caught in his hand.
Then, a string of 108 Buddhist prayer beads strung together with a string of corals and a copper alms bowl with a reddish color appeared one after another.
Finally, Bai Xiaoyun held the monk's staff that he used in the battle with Yao Feng and said with a troubled expression,
"I only have these four Buddhist items that I can use. If I lack one more, I will not be able to complete the task."
"Take a look at this and see if it is useful." Shen Luo heard him and took out his Half Moon Ring without hesitation and said.
Bai Xiaoyun inserted the monk's staff into the ground and took it over to test it with his mana. Then, he shook his head and said, "The grade is barely enough. It is a pity that it has not been baptized by Buddhist incense and does not have the spirituality of Buddhism. It is not usable."
Shen Luo heard him and was a little disappointed. Then, he called the other cultivators to search for it, but they still could not find anything.
Just as the two of them were thinking about what to do, Bai Xiaoyun suddenly thought of something and immediately lifted the monk's staff in front of him.
"Got it." He suddenly said.
Then, he held the monk's staff with one hand and the Pure Pearl inlaid at the end of the staff with the other. Both of his hands lit up and pulled with force. Like a broken lotus root, strands of golden light were pulled out from between the monk's staff and the pearl.
"Phew …"
Bai Xiaoyun suddenly exhaled a breath. Then, the breath turned into a sharp blade and cut the golden light in half. Then, the pearl and the scepter were separated.
"Is this possible?" Shen Luo saw this and could not help but be surprised.
"This Pure Pearl was originally a Buddhist item. It was originally two separate items from the monk's staff. In order to make it easier to use, they were refined together. Now, it has solved the urgent problem." Bai Xiaoyun explained.
Shen Luo nodded and did not say anything else.
Bai Xiaoyun then passed the ancient Buddhist scriptures and the coral beads to him and told him to find a place where spiritual energy gathered in the East and North respectively. Then, he would build a simple platform with stones and place it on the platform.
After Shen Luo placed the platform, Bai Xiaoyun had also finished placing the other treasures.
