Lin JingYu looked embarrassed, quickly said, "No, no, I was talking to myself, made senior brother worried." Xiao YiCai smiled and said, "It's good that you are fine, Lin junior brother, the big battle is imminent, you must recuperate!" Lin JingYu smiled and nodded, was about to speak when suddenly a Qing Yun disciple's cry was heard from afar, Xiao YiCai and Lin JingYu were shocked, almost at the same time leapt up, flew towards the source of the cry.
That sound was from HeYang City's southern gate, a few Qing Yun disciples were there doing their last patrol but right now each of them looked like they were facing a great enemy, wielding their magical weapons, their expressions nervous. On the city wall, a ferocious beast with a lion's head and wolf's body, its huge eyes fierce and ferocious, a low growl coming from its mouth, staring at these Qing Yun disciples but it seemed to know that these people were not ordinary people, so for the moment it did not act rashly. Xiao YiCai and Lin JingYu landed, at this time the other Qing Yun disciples also rushed over, after they saw clearly, they all inhaled a breath of cold air, Xiao YiCai let out a long breath, quietly said, "It's the demon beasts." Suddenly, a Qing Yun disciple beside Lin JingYu loudly shouted, "Outside, outside …" the voice was terrified, everyone heard it, immediately their hearts seemed to be in their throats, almost at the same time looked towards the distance outside HeYang City, at the direction that Qing Yun disciple was pointing.
Under the dense black clouds in the sky, the rumbling of thunder came from the horizon, and the silent lightning pierced through the blue dome of heaven. The earth was trembling slightly, deep rumbles like from the depths of hell slowly seeped out, but straight into the depths of the people's souls, reverberated incessantly. Innumerable demon beasts gathered into a boundless terrifying black tide, surging over from afar, rumbling like thunder but already suppressed the thunder in the horizon, the Heaven and Earth austere, lightning like strange snakes scurrying. The oppressive baleful aura even from afar, had already hit them in the face. The Qing Yun disciples were all pale, Xiao YiCai clenched his teeth, loudly said, "Go, quickly go, immediately return to Qing Yun Hill."
As he shouted, the Qing Yun disciples did not dare to be slow, they all took out their celestial swords and flew into the sky. The monster with the head of a lion and the body of a wolf on the wall roared loudly, it looked fierce. Lin JingYu followed at the back of the crowd, looked back in mid-air, saw the endless demon beasts surging over, the entire land seemed to be a sea of evil beasts, there was not a single trace of human presence. This catastrophe had finally arrived at the most critical moment! After hearing Xiao YiCai and the rest's urgent report, Qing Yun Hill TongTian Peak Crystal Hall full of Good Faction, for a moment nobody spoke. Silence enveloped this grand hall. What should come, had finally come.
Reverend DaoXuan slowly stood up, his face solemn, unhurriedly said, "Everyone, the world's lives are all here, now the Demon Beasts have occupied HeYang City and will attack Qing Yun in a few days, I have nothing more to say here, please go back and have a good rest, in the future we will fight the Demon Beasts to the death." The crowd looked at each other, after a moment slowly stood up, the Crystal Hall gradually filled with whispers, and it was in this low murmur, the crowd walked out.
Reverend DaoXuan turned to PuHong Master and Yun YiLan sitting beside him, said, "Both of you please take a rest too, I have something to discuss with the other Qing Yun sect leaders." PuHong Master and Yun YiLan both stood up, returned the greeting and said, "Reverend please go ahead." Reverend DaoXuan returned the greeting, greeted Xiao YiCai, Xiao YiCai hurriedly followed, followed Reverend DaoXuan into the rear hall, somewhere there, the other Qing Yun sect leaders and elders were already waiting for them.
Lin JingYu watched them leave and then walked out of the Crystal Hall alone, strolled to the railing outside the hall, leaned against the railing and gazed into the distance, the horizon was like ink, dark clouds heavy, not a trace of light. The mountain breeze was like knives, whistling, cutting his face painfully. He stood there silently, but in his mind, he couldn't help but think of that mysterious note and those four strange words on it. Backyard fire... backyard fire, backyard fire? What backyard fire? Countless thoughts turned in Lin JingYu's mind, in the end, his thoughts slowly converged on one point, that was Xiao YiCai's startled words reverberating beside his ears, "What happened to the rear mountain, Lin junior brother …" Rear mountain? Lin JingYu frowned again, although his eyes were bright but he instead slowly shook his head, perplexed again. This contemplation lasted for a long time, when he regained his senses, he realized there was no one around.
Lin JingYu sighed, unhurriedly walked down the stairs. Ever since the appearance of the demon beasts, Qing Yun sect had strengthened Qing Yun Hill's security, especially at the front mountain, no one knew when those ferocious innumerable evil beasts would suddenly charge up. But Qing Yun Hill had always been precipitous, especially TongTian Peak, towering into the clouds, easy to defend and hard to attack, but these to accomplished cultivators, were not much of an obstacle but to many demon beasts that could not fly it was an excellent barrier. Just that all along, wherever the demon beasts passed by, they were invincible, and there were numerous shocking and terrifying news, no one could be sure that these demon beasts would not have any unexpected attack, moreover, that legendary Beast Deity till today, no one knew his background, which added to everyone's suspicions.
Compared to Qing Yun front mountain, Qing Yun rear mountain was almost completely filled with precipitous cliffs, difficult for monkeys to cross, even so, Qing Yun sect still arranged for many disciples to ride their swords and patrol in the sky, just in case. Just that one point was very strange, near Qing Yun sect forbidden Illusory Moon Cave and Founders Ancestral Hall at the edge of the forbidden grounds, there were very few Qing Yun disciples guarding, as if Qing Yun sect was not at all worried about these two places. And right now the gloomy night had just passed, the sky was just beginning to brighten, towering high into the clouds TongTian Peak, between the small path leading to Founders Ancestral Hall and Illusory Moon Cave, there was a faint mist, gently drifting with the mountain breeze, lingering between the pine and cypress trees on both sides of the path.
At this moment, even the chirping of birds could not be heard, the damp moisture condensed into crystal clear dew beads, slowly trickling down from the emerald green leaves, quietly dripping down. And there was not a trace of a human figure! Suddenly, a human figure appeared on this small path, it was Ghost Li. His face was indifferent, no fear or worry could be seen in the enemy's territory, also no nervousness of approaching the forbidden grounds, he only expressionlessly and slowly walked forward.
This path, he had walked it before, ten years ago... ten years later, the scenery seemed to be the same, nothing had changed, the pine and cypress were evergreen, the grass and trees flourished, even the soil under his feet, seemed to be as moist and soft as that year. Just that, the one who had changed was him. The mountain breeze passed through the forest branches, blew past his clothes, ruffled his hair, Xiao Hui who was crouching on his shoulder still looked drowsy, its eyes drooped, its tail wrapped around Ghost Li's arm. And Ghost Li's eyes, was strangely bright. This small path was winding, heading deep into the mountains, the mist gently dispersed in front of him and quietly closed up behind him, he walked in this confusion, always moving forward, never once looking back.
Along the way. And reached that three-way junction, slightly to the left, was still a deep and serene small path, and the small path to the right, behind the forest, indistinctly revealed a few halls and eaves. That must be Founders Ancestral Hall, Ghost Li muttered in his heart. Ten years ago, it was right here, he once fought against the Evil Sect together with Lin JingYu, and it was also here that Lu XueQi confronted him. And now, he was already like a stranger to these years, these old friends.
[Sha sha, sha sha …] a fine sound was heard from deep in the forest, as if someone had woken up early to clean something, gently melodious, Ghost Li quietly stood there listening, he was actually in a trance, as if the years and time, in this fine 'sha sha' sound, quietly reverberated with ripples, quietly passing by. He suddenly as if startled awake from a dream, abruptly turned his head, the silent atmosphere in that instant seemed to freeze, even that faint rustling sound, seemed to have stopped, silent. Behind him, unknowingly, stood a black attired person, black veil masked, Mr Ghost. Ghost Li's pupils contracted slightly, in a deep voice said, "You are here too." Mr Ghost quietly said, "Yes." Ghost Li said, "What are you here for?" Mr Ghost shook his head, said, "I am here to lend you a hand." Ghost Li sneered, said, "What did you say?" Mr Ghost indifferently said, "You don't have to be suspicious, there are some things you don't know, I specially came to inform you.
There is no mechanism outside the Illusory Moon Cave but inside there is a superior formation, it is the spirit guarding the ancient sword Zhu Xian, its source is no different from the Zhu Xian Sword Formation. If outsiders want to barge in rashly and trigger the formation, it will be the same as alerting the Zhu Xian Sword Formation, the consequence is only death, if you think you can defeat that ancient sword Zhu Xian, I have nothing to say. "
Ghost Li's pupils contracted, and in the distant mist, that faint mist also seemed to tremble slightly. Mr Ghost glanced at Ghost Li, said, "Originally it is extremely difficult for us Evil Sect people to enter this Illusory Moon Cave, but you are an exception, in the entire world, other than Qing Yun sect head elders, only you can enter." Ghost Li was silent for a moment, coldly said, "What do you mean?" Mr Ghost said, "This formation must use Qing Yun sect's Tai Ji Xuan Qing Way, Shang Qing state as the key, to grasp the formation mechanism, only then can you enter, and after entering, the illusions will be like rain, whether you can firm your mind or not, it will depend on you." Ghost Li looked deeply at this person's black figure, after a long silence, said, "Why are you telling me so much?" Mr Ghost smiled, his black figure in the mist seemed to be swaying, like a ghost, faintly said, "You don't have to care so much, anyway this is all I have to say, whether you believe it or not is up to you."
Qing Yun Hill TongTian Peak front mountain, a Qing Yun Taoist child who was sweeping swept the fallen leaves to the side, was about to take a rest when he saw a figure slowly walking up the stairs, dressed in Qing Yun attire, although there were many Qing Yun sect disciples but this person had traversed this place countless times for the past ten years, they were already familiar with him. "Lin senior brother."
The Taoist child with a slightly immature voice, smiled and said to Lin JingYu who was walking up, "You are here so early! Going to the Founders Ancestral Hall at the back of the mountain again? "Lin JingYu smiled, nodded and said," Yes! Last night I did not sleep well, kept feeling vexed, like something happened, so I came up earlier. " The Taoist children who were also sweeping also walked over, gathered together, one of them asked, "Lin senior brother, I heard the demon beasts have already reached HeYang City at the foot of the mountain, will they attack?" The other Taoist children immediately started talking at the same time, but they were after all young, not as worried as those famous figures, although they were also worried about the demon beasts but instead were more optimistic.
Influenced by them, Lin JingYu's mood also improved a lot, smiled and said, "Oh, the demon beasts are ferocious, most likely they will attack Qing Yun." "What?" This time it was like an uproar, the Taoist children all started to make noise. Lin JingYu smiled and comforted them, motioned for them to quieten down, then said, "But don't we have all the seniors on Qing Yun Hill now, their powers are strong, their skills profound, definitely not afraid of the demon beasts. Besides, "Lin JingYu's face revealed a mysterious expression, said," We still have the invincible Zhu Xian Sword Formation! Don't tell me you all have forgotten? "
The Daoist children were all excited and laughed, saying, "That's right! Yes! We have the Zhu Xian Sword Formation, we will definitely win! " "That's right, wait for the demon beasts to come up, let them all die under the founder's sword formation, avenge the common people!" Listening to these words, Lin JingYu smiled, nodded frequently, at the end, he instructed the Taoist children a few words and then continued to walk towards the back of the mountain. Leaving these carefree youths, his expression suddenly turned solemn, quietly walked, after a long while, he suddenly sighed, shook his head, quietly muttered to himself, "Better hurry to the back of the mountain, ask the seniors!" While speaking, he quickened his steps, walked towards the Founders Ancestral Hall at the back of TongTian Peak.
And while he was walking with his head lowered, the misty mist on the back of the mountain was also stacking, gently drifting, like a dream that had not woken up from last night. At the fork in the road, Ghost Li and Mr Ghost stared at each other for a long time, a strange glint flashed in their eyes, Mr Ghost did not avoid him, looked straight at him. After a long while, Ghost Li did not make a sound, suddenly turned and walked towards that serene small path, Mr Ghost behind him, watched him. But at this moment, suddenly, an old voice from the small path towards the Founders Ancestral Hall, from that direction drifting gently in the white mist, with an indescribable weariness of vicissitudes, an old man's voice said, "Both of you, where are you going?"
Ghost Li and Mr Ghost's bodies shook, turned back and looked, the mist on that small path dissipated, a hunched figure slowly walked out. His back was slightly bent, as if the years had already pressed on him till he could not breathe, lines of knife-like wrinkles on his face, as if telling of the wasted years. Even that broom in his hand, right now, looked as old as its owner. Just that, this old man slowly walked, stopped six chi before Ghost Li and Mr Ghost, facing these two figures, this weary old man, when he slowly raised his head, a pair of clear and sharp eyes, stared ahead. "The morning chill, the tired birds have not woken up, both of you interested in having a cup of hot tea with me?"
