Luo Qingfeng quietly sat cross-legged on the ground, steadily circulating the Star Plucking Sect's Secret Art of the Stars. The World Energy within the crystal in his hand was constantly being drawn out, and at the same time, all the pores on his body were opened. The World Energy gathered by the Great Void Mystical Clear Array after the activation of the Great Void Mystical Clear Array also drilled into his meridians.
Although Luo Qingfeng was still paying attention to his surroundings, he did not notice that the surrounding fog had quietly changed. After all, he was in the middle of cultivation, so it was impossible for him to keep an eye on the Void Survey Mirror all the time. Not to mention, under Xia Ruofei's deliberate control, the direction of the Void Survey Mirror's detection was basically maintained in a stable state, and there was no change from before.
Unknowingly, from the depths of the fog came bursts of sobbing.
Luo Qingfeng, who was in the middle of cultivation, did not notice any abnormalities. When the sobbing entered his ears, his body trembled slightly. In his mind, scenes of more than a hundred years ago, when he was a cowherd boy in the countryside, he had coincidentally embarked on the path of cultivation.
In that chaotic era, his family had been separated, his friends had lost contact, and his entire village had been turned into scorched earth.
After entering the Star Plucking Sect, every day, he diligently studied and cultivated in the rich World Energy. No matter how much war raged in the outside world, he never paid attention to what was happening outside.
He started from the lowest level of service disciple. Step by step, through his own efforts, he stood out in the fierce competition in the Star Plucking Sect and finally inherited the mantle of the old Sect Master.
The important experiences of more than a hundred years of life, as well as some unforgettable moments, all flashed through his mind like flashbacks in a movie.
In the end, all the images shattered and reassembled into a middle-aged woman wearing patched clothes made of coarse cloth.
This middle-aged woman was in her early forties, but her temples were already white. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were very obvious, and the skin on her hands was very rough. This was the mark of years of hard work.
When this middle-aged woman appeared, Luo Qingfeng's body could not help but tremble slightly, and a complicated expression appeared on his face.
He seemed to have forgotten that he was trapped in the Peach Blossom Island's Grand Array and that he was actually cultivating. In front of him was clearly an illusion, but he could not get rid of it at all. In fact, he subconsciously did not want to get rid of it because although this was the first time he saw this middle-aged woman, he felt a sense of familiarity and intimacy from the bottom of his heart. Moreover, this woman's eyebrows were very similar to his mother's, so her identity was naturally on the verge of being revealed.
"Mother …" Luo Qingfeng murmured with a trembling voice.
The middle-aged woman looked at him and said Luo Qingfeng's eyes... He left us behind just like that and left for over a hundred years … "
Xiao Tao was Luo Qingfeng's nickname. His real name was Luo Songtao. Qingfeng was a name given to him by his master after he entered the Star Plucking Sect. This name was given according to the seniority of the Star Plucking Sect. His generation's Daoist name had the word "Qing" in it, so he was also called Daoist Qingfeng in the cultivation world.
This nickname had not been used for more than a hundred years.
When Luo Qingfeng heard his mother's words, he felt as if a knife was twisting in his heart. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed while saying, "Mother! This child is unfilial … After I was separated from you all, I was taken to the Star Plucking Sect by my master. We were not allowed to go down the mountain before we succeeded in cultivation. When I finally reached the fourth layer of Qi Refining and was qualified to go out, I did not waste a single day and immediately went down the mountain to find you all. But … in that time of turmoil and chaos, I could not find you at all! Our village was gone, it was just a piece of scorched earth … "
The middle-aged woman did not seem to be satisfied with Luo Qingfeng's explanation. She just looked at Luo Qingfeng indifferently and said, "Xiao Tao, we were right under that piece of scorched earth! That day, an army rushed into the village and burned the whole village to the ground. None of our villagers escaped. We were all buried under the scorched earth. Xiao Tao, we waited for you for more than a hundred years … "
When Luo Qingfeng heard this, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. His body trembled even more violently, and his mind gradually began to show signs of going out of control.
Xia Ruofei, who had been hiding nearby, did not know what Luo Qingfeng had experienced. The illusory formation of the Taixu Mystical Clear Formation only used the demonic sound as a medium to make people fall into a hypnotic state. Then, the inner demons would take advantage of this weakness to enter. Therefore, everyone's experience was different, but it was definitely the most unbearable or unforgettable thing in their lives.
Xia Ruofei saw that Luo Qingfeng's body was trembling more and more violently. His face was also turning red, as if he could go crazy at any time.
Xia Ruofei was slightly delighted. He did not expect the illusory formation of the Taixu Mystical Clear Formation to be so powerful.
If he had known this earlier, he would not have used the trapping formation to explore. Wouldn't it have been better to just use the illusory formation? Xia Ruofei secretly said in his heart.
Just as Xia Ruofei was looking forward to Luo Qingfeng's mental breakdown, Luo Qingfeng suddenly felt a slight chill in his chest. A cool aura entered his body from his chest, and his mind suddenly became clear.
Luo Qingfeng's expression changed. He stood up abruptly, and at the same time, decisively sealed his hearing. Then, he reached into his clothes and took out a star-shaped pendant. This pendant had three dark lines engraved on it. It was the headmaster's token of the Star Picking Sect. At the same time, it was also the most precious treasure passed down in the Star Picking Sect.
Luo Qingfeng saw the three dark lines on the pendant. One of them had already lost its spirituality, and there were some hair-thin cracks around it.
Luo Qingfeng's expression became even more serious.
This was the sect's most precious treasure. If this star-shaped pendant hadn't taken the initiative to release a cool aura at the critical juncture of his cultivation deviation, his meridians might have been broken, and he might have become a cripple. He might even have lost his life.
However, after this incident, the dark lines on the star-shaped pendant had clearly been damaged. If there were no accidents, one of them would soon disappear.
This made Luo Qingfeng's heart ache. When he first took over the position of the Star Picking Sect's headmaster, there were four dark lines on the pendant. Later, he was ambushed in a battle and was caught off guard by the enemy's sneak attack. He was seriously injured. At that time, this star-shaped pendant had taken the initiative to release a cool aura, allowing him to recover from his injuries in a very short period of time and allowing him to escape successfully. However, after that incident, the number of fine lines on the star-shaped pendant had become three. After releasing the cool aura, the last fine line had directly disappeared.
And now, it was clear that another fine line was about to disappear.
In Luo Qingfeng's view, this star-shaped pendant was like having three lives. It could really save his life at a critical moment. He didn't expect that one of them would be consumed so easily. Thinking of this, his heart ached.
Luo Qingfeng didn't expect the Peach Blossom Island's Spirit Array to be so dangerous.
His understanding of the Great Void Mystical Clear Array came from the ancient books on the Dao of Formations. These books didn't have a detailed introduction. Naturally, he had no way to solve the problem from the root and directly break the entire Spirit Array.
However, in Luo Qingfeng's view, guarding one place and waiting for the Spirit Array to fail was not difficult.
He never expected that the changes in this great Spirit Array would be so treacherous and changeable that he had unknowingly fallen into its trap.
Luo Qingfeng suddenly picked up the Void Surveying Mirror and constantly shone it around him.
Xia Ruofei actually didn't hide too far away. He thought that even if Luo Qingfeng didn't fall into Cultivation Deviation, he would soon fall into a state of madness under the influence of the Heart Demon. Therefore, he was preparing to take down Luo Qingfeng in one fell swoop! He didn't expect that Luo Qingfeng would suddenly wake up.
Moreover, the process of Luo Qingfeng checking the pendant was actually very short. Immediately after, he picked up the Void Surveying Mirror and looked around.
Coincidentally, the first direction that Luo Qingfeng looked in happened to be where Xia Ruofei was.
Originally, he was hiding in the Spirit Array under the cover of the fog. Moreover, when he saw Luo Qingfeng wake up, he felt a little surprised. Therefore, his attention was slightly relaxed at that moment.
When Luo Qingfeng scanned the area with the Void Surveying Mirror, Xia Ruofei was already aware of it. Therefore, he directly used the Floating Duckweed Steps and quickly changed directions, hiding in the depths of the Spirit Array.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but feel depressed. Luo Qingfeng's methods were much more varied than he had imagined. Moreover, some of them were really impossible to guard against. It seemed that any Golden Core Stage cultivator couldn't be underestimated.
At this time, although Luo Qingfeng was still using the Void Surveying Mirror to look in other directions, in fact, his heart was already in turmoil.
Just now, although Xia Ruofei's reaction was extremely fast, the eyesight of a Golden Core Stage cultivator was also incomparable to that of an ordinary person. In just a flash, Luo Qingfeng actually saw half of a person's figure disappear in a flash.
Although Luo Qingfeng's expression didn't change, his brows tightened.
There was someone inside the Spirit Array! For Luo Qingfeng, this was really bad news.
From the time the Spirit Array was activated until now, Luo Qingfeng had always felt that the Spirit Array should be intermittently activated. Moreover, judging from the age of the facilities, even if the Spirit Array wanted to be maintained, it wouldn't last for too long. This was also the biggest motivation for him to sit down and cultivate while waiting for the Spirit Array to collapse.
But just now, he clearly saw a person, so things became complicated …
Luo Qingfeng stared in the direction where Xia Ruofei had disappeared. His mind was spinning rapidly.
The matter of the Peach Blossom Island had dragged on for so long without any news. Yesterday, Zheng Yongshou directly reported the best news to him. The Spirit Array of the Peach Blossom Island didn't activate earlier or later. It just so happened that when they landed on the island, the natural Spirit Array suddenly activated. Zheng Yongshou was a cultivator with a good level of Array Dao, but when he encountered the Spirit Array, he actually spoke incoherently. His behavior was even more ridiculous. He directly rushed into the depths of the Spirit Array and then disappeared without a trace …
There were so many suspicious points mentioned above, but Luo Qingfeng either chose to ignore them or didn't care at all.
