I can travel a million miles

Chapter 159 Erosion
The years are long, and the time flows.

In a blink of an eye, it is 30 years.

For warriors, five years is an era. Every five years, a new generation of geniuses will rise, and some old warriors will pass away.

But for monks, ten years is just a short journey.

The monks who established the foundation can have a lifespan of 200 years, and the life span of the virtual core is 300 years. The life expectancy is far longer than that of the warriors, and the change of monks is much slower than that of the warriors, often only changing one generation after decades.

Because of Chen Mu's existence, Wushengyu regained its orthodoxy and spread it a little bit. However, it will not be possible to achieve it in just a few decades to truly restore it to be the same as Outland.

even.

In a short period of time, the inheritance of Taoism cannot replace martial arts.

Because it is easier to get started in martial arts, no spiritual roots and qualifications are needed, as long as there are certain resources, no matter how dull a person can become a ninth-rank martial artist, he can get started.

But the inheritance of Taoism is much more obscure, and there is no hope of getting started without spiritual roots, and looking at the entire inanimate domain, there are not many serious monks, and it will take at least hundreds of years for the real inheritance to spread.

After Chen Mu passed on the Taoism to Wumiao, he didn't pay any attention to the inheritance of the Taoism.

Let it be.

In the past 30 years, there have been basically no natural disasters and man-made disasters in Dayuan. It is peaceful and stable, and under Xiyu's governance, it has become more and more prosperous.

As for Chen Mu, the celestial master, on that day, after sending those who wanted to seek Tao to the outer domain, he hardly appeared in front of people again.

Only occasionally will some decrees come out.

Let the world know that Chen Mu, the celestial master, is still in the non-living domain, so that some foreign monks who have stayed in the non-living domain for various reasons are also safe and sound, and dare not make trouble.

In the past 30 years, Xiyu had considered taking Nanli into the land of Dayuan, turning Nanli into Nanli Prefecture of Dayuan, and establishing the land of ten states in Dayuan.

It's just that the customs of Nanli and Dayuan are very different. Although the barrier between the two sides is nothing because of Chen Mu's existence, it will take time to fully blend.

And just when Xiyu started to do this.

However, something happened to Nan Li.

……

Nan Li.

Ningfeng City.

In the past 30 years, many families in Ningfeng City have risen and fallen.

The three families of Hua, Liu and Sun who once united and could barely compete with the Lu family are now far inferior to the Lu family, and the entire Ningfeng City is already respected by the Lu family.

In the past 30 years, although the Lu family has never produced a grandmaster, more than a dozen fourth-rank martial arts have been born one after another, and there are still several family members who have spiritual roots, walked the path, and have cultivated to build a foundation.

The rest of the families are naturally difficult to compete with the Lu family.

The old patriarch of the Hua family, who has been removed from the position of patriarch, often sighs because of this. If the people who met Chen Mu were not the Lu family, but their Hua family, then they would be the ones who are prosperous now.

Just from the time when Lu Shiyun met Chen Mu and met Chen Mu's needs just right, the prosperity of the Lu family was already doomed.

but.

Recently, Ningfeng City has been very uneasy.

It was dusk, the sky was getting late, all the pedestrians on the street quickened their pace, their faces were a little nervous, as if they were avoiding something.

Before it was completely dark and night, all the streets were completely empty of pedestrians.

Looking down from the sky above Ningfeng City, you can see all the streets and even those courtyards in Ningfeng City, but there are no people walking around, and it has become very quiet.

On the roof of one of the tallest pavilions in the city.

Several figures stood, observing the situation in various parts of the city.

One of them, with gray hair, was already very old, and his body's qi and blood were vacillating. Although he maintained the level of a master, he seemed to be about to fall down at any time.

This old man is the ancestor of the Lu family.

At his age, he should have been unable to maintain the realm of a master long ago. He has been able to maintain it until now because he has received the inheritance of Taoism, learned a lot from it, and then kept his blood. realm.

"It's coming again."

There was a dignified look in the muddy eyes of the ancestor of the Lu family.

About three months ago, Ningfeng City began to experience abnormalities.

After nightfall, strange figures will appear on the street. These figures are blurred and wander aimlessly along the street. Once they are touched by these figures, as long as they are living things, whether they are humans or livestock, they will instantly disappear into thin air. Disappeared, as if evaporated without a trace.

At first, there were very few of these blurred figures, and the people they touched disappeared out of thin air, so that no one noticed for a long time, until more and more people disappeared in the city, and finally alarmed the Lu family.

At first, the Lu family didn't care.

I just thought it was a ghost.

But after a fourth-rank martial artist from the Lu family accidentally touched the wandering blurred figure and disappeared out of thin air on the spot, it finally caused a shock.

Even the patriarch of the Lu family, who had long since ceased to be in charge, was alarmed, and investigated the matter together with the two monks of the Lu family who had completed the Foundation Establishment.

Then found out.

These indistinct figures have nothing to do with ghosts and ghosts, and they don't have any evil spirits on their bodies. They seem to be just vague illusions.

But as long as a living person touches it, it will disappear immediately.

and.

Every time a living person disappears, there will be one more blurry figure like this!
Due to the late discovery at the beginning and the lack of time to deal with it, the number of fuzzy figures wandering around at night has reached 380!
This is a horrifying number, because even a fourth-rank martial artist will disappear out of thin air when touching this figure. The ancestor of the Lu family and the two foundation-building monks of the Lu family have both seen the disappearance scene with their own eyes, and they didn't notice it at all. Traces, even the process of disappearing is unclear.

This also means that if they touch those figures, most of them will disappear out of thin air!

And there are more than three hundred figures of this kind.

How appalling!

So much so that today's Ningfeng City is almost shrouded in terror. Every family stays behind closed doors at night, and they don't even dare to speak loudly at night. It is as silent as a dead city.

The only advantage is that although these fuzzy figures are weird, their wandering speed is not much different from that of ordinary people, and they will not suddenly accelerate, and they will not cross the wall, only wandering on the street.

"coming!"

Lu Chen spoke in a deep voice.

He is a junior of the Lu family, but with spiritual roots, he has already cultivated a small foundation. Compared with fourth-rank warriors in realm, his strength is far stronger than warriors of the same rank, and his status in the Lu family is second only to the ancestor of the Lu family.

Accompanied by his voice falling.

The last ray of light in the sky disappeared.

Then, on the streets of Ningfeng City, a large number of figures suddenly appeared out of thin air.

These figures were not scattered, but concentrated in a street, each of them appeared blurred, as if they were just virtual images gathered by fog.

"..."

The ancestor of the Lu family looked solemn.

He would not be afraid of any ghosts, nor would the Lu family today, but this kind of weirdness, which was completely clueless and could not find the source, made him feel chills in his heart.

Look carefully.

You can see those gathered figures, sitting or squatting along the sides of the street, and some figures wandering in the middle of the street, stopping in places from time to time.

This scene looks very familiar. If it is in the daytime, if it is a living person, it will be like a lively market.

But on this night, it seemed extremely strange.

"Today is indeed the market again."

Lu Chen spoke in a deep voice.

The behavior of these fuzzy figures is very regular. First, they only appear at night, and then they behave very much like ordinary people living in the city.

There is a market every five days in the city, and these blurred figures also have a market every five days.

"These figures do follow the law. As long as they know the law, ordinary people can avoid danger, but they appear like this every night..."

The ancestor of the Lu family shook his head.

After figuring out the movement patterns of the figures, it is not difficult to avoid danger. As long as you don't go out at night and try to avoid these figures when you go out, you will be fine.

But the problem is, it is like this every night, which has already made the whole Ningfeng City panic, and no one is sure whether there will be other changes in this situation.

In case these figures can suddenly cross the wall.

Or maybe it starts appearing during the day too.

Then this huge Ningfeng City may collapse immediately!
"When will the second sister come back?"

Lu Chen stared at the blurry figure on the street for a while, then turned his head and asked.

The patriarch of the Lu family shook his head slightly, and said: "She should already know, as long as there is nothing serious, she will probably come back soon."

The voice just fell.

hum!
Seeing the distant sky, a little purple light suddenly shone.

This purple light was just a small spot at first, but in the next moment it burst into a thousand rays of light, piercing the night for a while, illuminating the entire sky, and also illuminating the entire Ningfeng City.

In that piece of purple light, I saw a figure coming from the sky. She had a graceful figure, and before she came to the sky above Ningfeng City, a ray of coercion that far surpassed everyone shrouded her.

Sensing this coercion, the ancestors of the Lu family and the others were first surprised, and then overjoyed.

When they all looked at each other.

I saw that escaping light cut through the night sky, flashed from a distance, came to the sky above Ningfeng City, and quickly restrained the coercion, and landed directly in front of the ancestor of the Lu family and others.

A woman appeared in the twilight with a calm expression, it was Lu Shiyun.

"grandfather."

Lu Shiyun whispered to the patriarch of the Lu family.

The patriarch of the Lu family sensed the unfathomable aura on Lu Shiyun's body, with joy and joy on his face, he said: "Shiyun, your cultivation level..."

"The establishment of the foundation has been completed."

Lu Shiyun responded softly: "After a while, I will go to seclusion, try to understand the sympathy between heaven and man, unite all dharmas, and attack the realm of emptiness."

"Good good."

The ancestor of the Lu family smiled freely.

He is naturally clear about the state of foundation building perfection, which corresponds to the second rank of martial arts and the third rank of sorcerer, and in terms of strength, it is even higher than the two.

In other words, the current Lu Shiyun can be regarded as a half-celestial being.

Tens of years ago, Chen Mu entered Nanli as a celestial being. At that time, he only thought that a little favor from Chen Mu would make the Lu family prosperous. It was a chance that Lu Shiyun could serve in front of Chen Mu.

It was far from expected that Chen Mu would be able to kill the demon king, punish the real person, and ascend to the top, that is, to serve Lu Shiyun by his side, and now he has reached the state of foundation establishment, only one step away from Xudan.

The karma between the Lu family and Chen Mu has long been exhausted.

The last time Chen Mu entered Nanli, he beheaded three outlanders in Jiuyi Mountain, and he never entered Ningfeng City again.

The current rise and fall of the Lu family has nothing to do with Chen Mu, and Lu Shiyun can reach the current state, and even hope to cultivate the Void Core, which is enough to protect the Lu family for hundreds of years.

"Meet the second sister."

"I've seen Sister Shiyun."

Lu Chen and several other juniors of the Lu family saluted Lu Shiyun carefully.

"Don't be too polite."

Lu Shiyun shook her head slightly.

These juniors are less than ten years younger than her, and they even practiced martial arts together when they were young. Although they have changed a lot now, she still recognizes them all.

In the past few decades, she has actually had many opportunities to go back to Lu's house to take a look. Once, she was assigned a task by Chen Mu, very close to Nanli, but she still held back and did not come back, but completed it as soon as possible. Chen Mu's confession, and went back to report to Chen Mu.

Everything focused on Chen Mu's affairs.

"Is this the vague figure mentioned in the letter?"

Lu Shiyun didn't reminisce about the old days with the Lu family patriarch, and soon looked at the blurred figure on the streets of Ningfeng City, a little seriousness flashed in her eyes.

The ancestor of the Lu family also looked over, his eyes became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "That's right, and in the past few days, some new rules have been discovered. These vague figures seem to be imitating the lives of ordinary people, and now they appear every five days. market."

Lu Shiyun frowned slightly.

After looking carefully for a moment, she bent forward a little.

laugh!
A bit of purple light pierced the night sky, pierced through the sky in an instant, and pierced through a blurry figure.

The purple light continued to castrate, and fell on the ground of the street again, bombarding the ground into a bottomless pothole, and even burst into a roar, shaking the entire Ningfeng City.

The power of Lu Shiyun's random blow shocked even the patriarch of the Lu family, but what made him feel even more horrified was that the blurry figure, who had endured such a blow, remained unchanged and remained on the street. Stop and go, as if rushing to the market normally.

"how come……"

Lu Shiyun frowned as she watched this scene.

The patriarch of the Lu family looked at the blurred figure with no change, his face was a little ugly, he turned to look at Lu Shiyun, and said, "Shiyun, what did you find?"

Lu Shiyun slowly put down her hands, stared at the blurred figures, and said in a deep voice: "It's really not a ghost, this kind of weirdness usually only appears in one place."

"Where?"

Lu Chen and others also looked over.

Lu Shiyun said word by word: "The spirit world!"

The sound fell, and in the ears of the ancestors of the Lu family and others, it roared like thunder.

Spirit world!

Since Chen Mu briefly explained the secrets of the spirit world in front of the Xutian Barrier 30 years ago, the situation about the spirit world has quickly spread in Dayuan and Nanli as common knowledge.

Basically, as long as they are monks or warriors of a certain level, they more or less understand that the depths of this world are the spirit world, and those Jedi are formed by the infiltration of the spirit world.

There are traces of the spirit world in Ningfeng City!
what does this mean?
The patriarch of the Lu family looked at each other with Lu Chen and the others, their expressions were very ugly.

Even Lu Shiyun, staring at those blurred figures, couldn't help but take a breath.

I'm in trouble.

If I'm not mistaken, the appearance of these blurred figures is a sign that the spirit world has infiltrated the world, and it will definitely become more and more serious in the future.

In the end, Ningfeng City may inevitably turn into a new Jedi!
Lu Shiyun didn't know whether Chen Mu could solve this situation, but at least she couldn't. Even if she violated the rules rashly and touched those blurred figures, she might be caught in an accident on the spot.

"Relocate."

Lu Shiyun looked at it for a while, narrowed her gaze, and said slowly to the ancestor of the Lu family: "The spirit world is irresistible, not even real people. What we can do now is to get out of here earlier."

The patriarch of the Lu family looked heavy, but he knew the seriousness of the matter, and said without too much hesitation, "Okay, I will notify the whole city in the morning tomorrow and withdraw from Ningfeng City."

Lu Shiyun shook her head slightly and said, "The sooner the better, it's best to leave now."

"This……"

The patriarch of the Lu family hesitated and said, "But it's already night, and there are those things wandering in the street. They will disappear in the morning, so it should be much safer. Besides, there have been no major changes in the past few months. Wait a few more hours. There should be nothing wrong."

After hearing this, Lu Shiyun was about to say something, but her expression suddenly changed.

Not just her.

Together with the ancestors of the Lu family and others, their complexions changed drastically.

Under the night, I don't know when it started, as if an invisible sky slowly fell, and the countless buildings in Ningfeng City seemed to have a blurry afterimage.

Do not!
To be precise, it seems that there is another illusory city that quietly emerged and overlapped with Ningfeng City as a whole.

At the same time, the blurred figures on the street began to increase in large numbers, and figures began to appear everywhere, and some of the originally blurred figures gradually began to become clear!
"Now we don't have to wait a few more hours."

Lu Shiyun sighed.
