In Zhengyang Hall, everything was still proceeding in an orderly manner. At least during the day, there were still many tedious but important rituals that needed to be done one by one. They couldn't be careless and careless when paying respect to the world and ancestors.
As Perfected Yuanying, he was naturally more relaxed than ordinary people. Most of the time, he only needed to stand to the side and watch. He only needed to bow and pay respects during the most important activities. Dongfang Tao had been doing it very calmly without any impatience.
During this time, Melaleuca Japonica took advantage of a gap when no one was paying attention to whisper to him, "Why are there fewer people than we expected from Perfected Yuanying's side?"
Dongfang Tao's expression didn't change as he replied softly, "Didn't I say long ago that this day isn't important? It's probably because those fellow Daoists can't be bothered to come."
Melaleuca Japonica shook her head and said, "I think something's wrong. Look, even Du Kong didn't come."
Dongfang Tao glanced at her and said, "It's fine if you're talking about others, but I don't believe that old man Du Kong would be at odds with Idle Month."
Melaleuca Japonica thought for a moment and nodded. "You're right. Du Kong is indeed Perfected Sect Master's loyal follower. He won't betray him. However, isn't this strange? If that's the case, why hasn't he come after so long? "
Dongfang Tao said, "Something must have delayed him."
Melaleuca Japonica fell silent. Dongfang Tao waited for a while and saw that she didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at her and asked softly, "What's wrong? In the past, you've always been able to see through everything in the sect. Your senses are far sharper than mine. Otherwise, I wouldn't have always listened to you. Do you feel that something's wrong today? "
Melaleuca Japonica wanted to say something but hesitated. After hesitating for a moment, she whispered, "Actually, it's nothing. It looks good, but … Hakushin Jinkun released the news two days ago that he's coming today."
Dongfang Tao was taken aback for a moment before he said, "That's right. Uncle-Master Bai Chen wants to come and support his disciple, but he will definitely come at night."
Melaleuca Japonica glanced at him and asked, "Then why did you come here during the day?"
Dongfang Tao smiled and said, "I'm doing this to show my sincerity to the Sect Leader, to show my sincerity …" Before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed, as if he had thought of something.
In order to show Zhenren Idle Month and Hakushin Jinkun, who was even more powerful, he came to support the Zhenren during the day.
This was a kind of attitude, a very clear and unambiguous attitude.
But why didn't the others think of it …
In the distance, Perfected Idle Month finished paying her respects to the Ancestral Master. She retreated to the side and looked over through the gap. Dongfang Tao raised his eyes and looked over. Both of them smiled at each other and nodded. A moment later, Perfected Idle Month looked away.
The smile on Dongfang Tao's face slowly disappeared. A moment later, he said in a low voice, "It seems that something is really wrong …"
"Boom!"
In the sky outside the main hall, the sound of thunder suddenly came from the gathering dark clouds.
Dongfang Tao and Melaleuca Japonica raised their heads and looked outside. After a moment, Melaleuca Japonica said softly, "It seems like it's going to rain again."
…
It started raining again.
The rain was not heavy. In the beginning, there were only a few drops. Slowly, it became denser. However, it was still a light drizzle that drifted down from the clouds. It made the world and the towering Kunlun Mountains look a little blurry and hazy.
The sound of thunder traveled into the darkness and into the shadows.
Most people in this world, most of the time, felt that the darkness was scary, gloomy, terrifying, and disgusting. Very few people liked the darkness, just like how most people naturally liked the light.
However, there were also very few people who liked the darkness. They felt that the darkness was also warm. They felt that the darkness was a kind of protection. When they were lonely, they would think of it.
For example, the legendary Evil Sect. Many people in the world felt that they naturally belonged to the darkness.
This was of course a misunderstanding. As long as one was human, it was hard to change one's nature. Even for the Evil Sect people, most of them liked the light and hated the darkness. However, the Devil Sect of the Three Realms had such a long history that even the followers of the Devil Sect could not remember how long it had been. Since ancient times, they had actually passed down many unimaginable and bizarre Daoist arts and divine powers.
Among them, there was an extremely rare and strange skill that made one hold his breath like a dead thing. Even the heartbeat almost stopped. As long as one's cultivation was deep enough, one could avoid the senses of some powerful cultivators.
But the senses were still there.
Therefore, in the deepest darkness, he seemed to have seen everything.
It started to rain again. The water droplets seeped into the soil. That chill was like a knife piercing into the flesh and bone marrow. He had been waiting. Waiting for the figure that should have appeared.
However, the one that should have appeared did not.
The one that should not have appeared, came a lot.
He could not even distinguish the layers of illusions in this chaotic situation. Therefore he could only hide in the darkness and wait in silence.
… …
Dukon Zhenren's eyes widened in anger. He looked angrily at Ming Zhu. His teeth were clenched.
Ming Zhu looked at him with a cold smile. He said disdainfully, "Evildoer!"
Du Kong looked at He Yi who was vomiting blood. He said with grief and indignation, "You and I are both Yuanying Zhenren. You have the nerve to attack such a young man?"
Ming Zhu sneered. "You put it nicely. If you have the guts, come and fight me for 300 rounds?"
Du Kong snorted. His face changed. In this treacherous situation, his many years of experience allowed him to maintain a clear mind. He said coldly, "I am not a spy from the Evil Sect. There is a misunderstanding. I will explain it to Sect Head Senior Brother. If you guys dare to lay your hands on my disciple, be careful that I will be ruthless in the future! "
After saying that, he hardened his heart. Without looking at He Yi, he turned around and left.
With Zhenren Yuanying's level of cultivation, it was easy to defeat him but hard to capture him. Killing him was even more difficult. The few Yuanying Zhenren looked at each other. Suddenly, Qian Deng, who had not spoken since the beginning, took a step forward. He said in a deep voice, "Are you really not a spy from the Evil Sect?"
"Bah!" Dukon Zhenren said hatefully, "I have been in the Kunlun Party for many years. Don't you know what kind of person I am? Do I look like a spy from the Evil Sect?"
Qian Deng nodded slowly. He seemed to be moved by his words. He said in a deep voice, "Logically speaking, it is true. There must be a mistake somewhere. We also received a secret report from a spy who said that the spy from the Evil Sect would meet here."
Dukon Zhenren was shocked. He quickly said, "Me too."
Qian Deng frowned. "So it is. It seems that there is a mistake. Shidi, return He Yi to Dukong Shixiong. "
On the other side, Ming Zhu shrugged. He picked up He Yi and threw him toward Dukon Zhenren like a stone.
Dukon Zhenren cried out in alarm. He subconsciously reached out to catch him. At the same time, he saw He Yi's bleeding face. His heart ached.
Very quickly, the sound of the wind swept past. He reached out to hold his most beloved disciple in his arms. In that split second, his body suddenly shook. His mind was suddenly in turmoil. He thought of something he had overlooked before.
He learned about the Evil Sect spy's secret pattern from He Yi. But where did He Yi come from?
Right, He Yi said that he found it here.
Why did Qian Deng, Ming Zhu, and the others say that they discovered the Evil Sect spy's secret after learning about the secret pattern? How did they find the secret pattern?
At this time, he should be in the Tian Kun Peak's Zhengyang Hall. Why did he come to this secluded and uninhabited mountain forest? And Qian Deng, Ming Zhu, Guang Yang, and Mu Yuan, these four Yuanying Zhenren, also came here?
Everything seemed to be a little off.
His heart suddenly stopped beating, and he suddenly held his breath. A deep and frightening panic quietly attacked him, wrapping around his body.
Dukon Zhenren didn't want to believe this cold premonition. But his reason coldly reminded him. He subconsciously loosened his grip on He Yi. He wanted to step back, but at the same time, he saw his disciple's eyes.
He Yi's eyes were brimming with tears.
He Yi's face was filled with grief.
Tears quickly flowed down.
He Yi's face was covered with tears.
He Yi's voice was hoarse. He softly called out, "Master!"
Dukon Zhenren halted his steps. He suddenly felt a chill on his lower abdomen.
… …
"Boom!"
At that moment, in the vault of heaven, a sudden clap of thunder resounded from the dark clouds. The sound shook the surroundings, as if to tear apart the vault of heaven and earth. Accompanied by the rumbling thunder, lightning like silver snakes swam in the dark clouds. The rain suddenly became heavier and began to rush into this gray and gloomy world.
The heavy rain fell on Daoist Master Dukong's face, which seemed to have suddenly aged ten years. As a result, many deep wrinkles that no one had noticed before appeared on his face. It was only now that people realized that this person was already an old man.
An old man who had reached the end of his life and was about to die.
Four huge and dark figures slowly approached. They were the auras of four extremely powerful Yuanying Enlightened Masters. When they gathered together, their power was enough to split the mountains and split the earth. Just the invisible power seemed to have cut off any connection between this place and the outside world. Not even the slightest sound could be heard. But Dukon Zhenren no longer cared.
He just looked at He Yi in a daze. His mouth squirmed a few times. Then, he lowered his head to look at his lower abdomen.
There was a bright blade there. It was as cold as snow. It directly cut through the incomparably tough flesh and skin of the Yuanying Enlightened Master like cutting a piece of paper. It went straight into the Sea of Qi in his lower abdomen and penetrated all the barriers. With a terrible and cruel aura, it directly pierced through the Five Elements Disk in Dukon Zhenren's dantian. Like a demon, it ferociously nailed him to death on the blade. Then, it broke out of his body and along the way, it also cut off his spine.
The blade had a handle.
The handle was held in his disciple's hand. It was steady and powerful.
