Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 463 Returning to the old place
Half a quarter of an hour later, a sword light descended from the sky, and a middle-aged sword cultivator came with a flying sword. He landed on the ground and immediately saw the three robbers lying on the ground. There was a trace of doubt on his serious face, and then he pointed his hand and flew the flying sword towards the three corpses, instantly flying them away.

"He is really dead...Who killed this?" The middle-aged man murmured, and then he looked at Zhang Miao - the small courtyard next to him. He quickly walked to the small courtyard and shouted loudly: "Xuanxuan, I'm here, don't be afraid, I'm here to protect you!"

He entered the courtyard and searched around, but couldn't find anyone in his outer room. Now he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. At this time, the charming female cultivator also came back. When she saw this situation, she immediately cried and said: "Why are you coming back? Why don't you just let me die here? Then you can have an explanation!" "

When the middle-aged swordsman saw her like this, he immediately said: "Xuanxuan, please listen to my explanation..."

Before he finished speaking, the charming woman shook her head and shouted: "I won't listen, I won't listen..."

The large ethical theater next door did not attract Zhang Miao's attention. He was still practicing hard...
-
Half an hour later, the middle-aged sword cultivator finally coaxed the outer room into order. One of them is willing to coax, and the other is willing to listen to coaxing. The two of them hit it off immediately, and there is nothing to worry about. At this time, the sword cultivator said: "The three robbers outside are dead. Do you know who did it?"

The woman shook her head first, then thought about it, and then said uncertainly: "Maybe it's my new neighbor. When I was running away, I wanted to take him along with me, but he refused, saying that he wanted to protect his property. . Then I left. Did he kill the three robbers? "

Speaking of this, she was a little unsure, mainly because the new neighbor next door rarely left home after moving in, and she didn't think that such a monk would be a match for the three bloodthirsty gangsters.

The middle-aged monk nodded, then he came to the door of Zhang Miao's courtyard and shouted loudly: "Can the monks inside come out and meet me?"

This voice interrupted Zhang Miao's practice. Zhang Miao was a little impatient, but he still came out to meet him.

The middle-aged swordsman looked Zhang Miao up and down, raised his hands and said, "Zhang Linhui, Zhang family, may I ask your friend Gao's name? Maybe you killed those three robbers?"

Zhang Miao also cupped his hands and said: "My lord, Zhang Miao, I didn't kill those three robbers. When I came out, the three robbers suddenly fell to the ground and died. I thought it was you who took action. I see what happened." Once it’s settled, I’ll go home and continue practicing.”

Zhang Linhui was slightly startled by these words. He looked at Zhang Miao again. This man was not high in cultivation. He was just entering the late stage of Qi training. He didn't look like he was telling lies...

Zhang Linhui nodded, and then said: "My fellow Taoist is also named Zhang? But he is a distant relative of the same family?" This Zhang Linhui was originally a distant relative of the Zhang family. Later, because of his high talent and good cultivation, he was recruited as his son-in-law by the current head of the Zhang family. This kind of distant relative of the family is the best marriage partner, which not only ensures the purity of blood, but also does not cause any ethical problems.

Because of his own background, Zhang Linhui would inevitably ask this question when he heard that Zhang Miao was also named Zhang.

Zhang Miao shook his head and said: "I am not a local, and I have no blood relationship with your Zhang family."

Zhang Linhui nodded again, and then said: "In that case, it's okay." After that, he and Zhang Miao cupped their hands, ending the inquiry.

This invasion by robbers caused many casualties. Fortunately, all the property was recovered. Although heartbroken, the monks here were helpless.

The matter just faded away, and Zhang Miao continued to practice. Finally, half a month later, his cultivation finally reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.

When he reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, he no longer wanted to practice here. The main reason is that if he breaks through to the foundation building stage, it will cause a relatively large battle, and it will be troublesome for people here to be alarmed. So he plans to quit the lease.

Zhang Miao couldn't help but sigh after putting away the mistress gathering spirit array set up in the room.

"The formation that took a thousand spirit stones to set up was removed even after a month. This practice really costs money..." The dismantled formation materials can hardly be recycled. A thousand spirit stones were used in just one month. No more, it’s quite heartbreaking to say it.

Although Zhang Miao was once a great monk in the Hedao Realm, he had earned all this money with hard work. Every penny was his hard work. He would feel heartbroken if the money was too much or too little.

The lease of the small courtyard has not yet expired, and now I will lose another sum if I cancel the lease. Zhang Miao sublet the small courtyard. Although he suffered some losses, at least it was not that big.

After packing everything, Zhang Miao left here.

While practicing, Zhang Miao also carefully considered the issue of breakthrough. In fact, he entered a misunderstanding. His practice did not actually require being close to the city. Initially, his idea was that there would be a large array inside the city, and its aura concentration would be higher than outside.

But in fact, he can solve all these things with his own technology. Instead, he would get into trouble because of the city's high cost of living. The more prosperous the city is, the more people gather there, and the more messy things happen. Just like that robbery, it was always going to happen.

If you go to the real wilderness, although you may encounter other troubles, the man-made troubles will be much less.

Moreover, Zhang Miao thought of a place that should be inaccessible to humans and monsters. If you go there to practice, there will definitely be a lot less trouble in the outside world, and the spiritual energy of that place is also high, no worse than ordinary big cities.

In fact, this place is the secret realm of Xuanjie Mountain! Now is the time when the secret realm is closed, and the tribulation light is everywhere in the secret realm. If ordinary monks and goblins go in, they will die without life. However, Zhang Miao's cultivation level is low and he is only active in the periphery. He should be able to take advantage of the aura of Xuanjie Mountain.

After thinking about this, Xuanjie Mountain is Zhang Miao's best choice. He used his magical power to cross thousands of mountains and rivers, and arrived next to Xuanjie Mountain in one go.

The quiet Xuanjie Mountain stands in front of you. White clouds cover the top of the mountain. Mist surrounds the mountain peak. The occasional bird song makes Xuanjie Mountain appear even more secluded.

To outsiders, this kind of mountain is just a beautiful and tranquil peak. But only when you actually enter the mountain do you realize how dangerous it is. The calamity light will surround you silently, and when enough calamity light is accumulated, the calamity will erupt. If you can't get through it, it will turn into ashes. If you can get through it, you won't get much benefit, but the loss will be huge.

This place, except when people come to explore during the period when the Tribulation Light fades, is quiet and peaceful at other times.

When Zhang Miao arrived here, Ruoyouruowu's calamity light appeared in front of his eyes, and his Yangshen could also see the calamity light. There are already many tribulations outside Xuanjie Mountain.

Zhang Miao thought for a moment, and suddenly he remembered the Tongtian Temple of Tongtian Lao Taoist, and he didn't know what happened to this Taoist temple now.

Zhang Miao headed towards Tongtian Temple. This Tongtian Temple is located next to Xuanjie Mountain, slightly within the scope of Xuanjie Mountain. It itself is shrouded in the light of robbery. Even if it is surrounded by light of robbery, Zhang Miao is not afraid. His cultivation level is very low. The light of robbery They don't like to pester him. As the saying goes, with great ability comes great responsibility. The stronger the cultivation level, the more disasters there will be. People with low cultivation level really don't even bother to entangle themselves with the calamity light. Not to mention that Zhang Miao could still see Jie Guang and take a detour.

After walking for a while, we finally arrived at the mountain gate of Tongtian Temple. But now it seems that the mountain gate road looks a bit dilapidated, the steps are covered with moss and dead leaves, and it looks like it has been in disrepair for many years.

I think back in those days, there were goblins cleaning this place, and these stone steps were spotless.

Zhang Miao couldn't help but sigh. If he hadn't killed those two people back then, probably this place wouldn't be so dilapidated.

Slowly walking up the steps, the surrounding dense forest was filled with mist. The wind passing through the forest let out a ghostly howl, which seemed to be driving away Zhang Miao, the uninvited guest. Without anyone to preside over the Tongtian Temple, the humans and demons in the temple have all dispersed, and the place has become deserted.

Zhang Miao continued to move forward, and after a while, he reached the gate of the viewing room. When he arrived here, he was slightly stunned, because most of the entrance to the treasure temple had been destroyed, and the simple plaque with the words "Tongtian Temple" engraved on it was also broken. One side of the vermilion gate was missing, and most of the simple but exquisite gate collapsed. .

"There must have been a fierce battle here, and both sides broke the door..." Zhang Miao said decisively.

Entering the Taoist temple, the former silver walls and copper tiles have long lost their luster. The silver walls looked gray because they were oxidized. There is a lot of green patina on the copper tiles, showing its dilapidation at this time.

The fish pond at the entrance has long since dried up, and the lotus flowers and fish in the fish pond have long since passed away. The white jade railings are still as warm and shiny as before.

Further forward, the alchemy furnace more than ten feet high made of hardware also fell to the ground. The fire in the furnace had long been extinguished, leaving only the dark furnace showing its former glory.

The golden dome on the main hall of the Taoist temple is still shining brightly, but now things and people have changed, and all the people living here have disappeared. Entering the main hall, the furnishings inside were also swept away, leaving only an empty main hall. The same was true for the left and right side halls, with only jade bricks, copper walls and iron tiles that could not be dug away.

After walking around, Zhang Miao roughly knew what was happening here. It's just that Taoist Tongtian died, and the Taoist boys left behind in this place started fighting among themselves, and then there was an endless fight. In the end, no one became the winner, and everyone got involved in Xinruan and ran away!
Without enough strength, ordinary monks cannot survive for long within the scope of Xuanjie Mountain. Without the blessing of the Taoist Master, even if those Taoist boys and demon servants are determined to stick to their foundation, they will be slowly entangled by the calamity, and they will eventually be unable to escape the calamity.

Without ability, even keeping a career is a luxury.

But this place finally belongs to Zhang Miao... Zhang Miao simply tidied it up. He doesn't have any materials now, and the protective formation cannot be repaired. Fortunately, no one should come to this place, and now he can also Just use it.

Tongtian Temple is located on the edge of Xuanjie Mountain. Under the influence of Xuanjie Mountain, the place is full of spiritual energy. Of course, the monks who lived here before didn't care about this. In the past, even the demon servants of Tongtian Temple were at the golden elixir stage, so they didn't care about the amount of spiritual energy.

But what Zhang Miao cares about now is that Zhang Miao's current cultivation level is destined to be unable to cultivate the golden elixir and Yuanying. In this way, he will not be able to practice by absorbing the aura of the virtual world. All of this must be supported by the aura of the outside world.

After getting ready, Zhang Miao sat cross-legged in the center of the hall. Relying on the aura gathered from Tongtian Temple's excellent Feng Shui, Zhang Miao began to prepare for promotion to Foundation Establishment.

He began to absorb the spiritual energy around him. As he absorbed it like a black hole, the spiritual energy around him came here like moths to the flame. The spiritual energy from dozens or hundreds of miles around gathered here and deposited in Xuanjie. The huge spiritual energy of the mountain was also sucked in by this suction force!

After just a few hours, light erupted from the collision of spiritual energy here. Waves of spiritual energy light spread out in all directions, and could be clearly seen for hundreds of miles around.

When the spiritual energy gathered, the robbery light in Xuanjie Mountain also passively gathered and poured into Zhang Miao's body.

Gradually, there was more and more Jie Guang in his body... Although Jie Guang didn't want to pay attention to a young monk like him, he couldn't bear it and Zhang Miao took the initiative to provoke Jie Guang! Jie Guang followed the spiritual energy and came over.

The calamity light is getting stronger and stronger, the aura is getting more and more abundant, and the aura is getting brighter and brighter.

One hundred and twenty miles away from Xuanjie Mountain, there is a small temple surrounded by mountains. There is a three-legged golden toad enshrined in the temple. A short and fat Taoist is respectfully offering incense to the golden toad. While he is offering incense, he chatters: "Please protect me, ancestor, so that I can marry Fairy Chang'e. If I can, If you marry Fairy Chang'e, your descendants will never forget our ancestors' blessing..."

This man is said to be related to Xuanjie Mountain. He was originally from the forest frog clan in Xuanjie Mountain. Later he left Xuanjie Mountain with the Golden Toad Ancestor. The Golden Toad Ancestor found a place to leave on his own, but he stayed. .

Without it, it’s just because of love.

He fell in love with a big white goose that became a spirit outside Xuanjie Mountain. This big white goose calls herself Fairy Chang'e. She has a slender beautiful neck, charming eyes, perky butt, and slender thighs. The Taoist Lin Frog was so fascinated that he couldn't tell the difference, making him think about tea and food day and night.

Therefore, for the sake of love, he took the initiative to stay and get close to the fairy Chang'e every day. It's just that he looks a bit ugly. Although his strength is acceptable, Fairy Chang'e doesn't like him. But the banshee didn't explicitly reject him, she just hung on.

The two have been entangled like this for almost a hundred years. Today, Linwa Taoist still offers incense to the ancestor as usual and prays to the ancestor to bless him and make his wishes come true. Then at this time, he suddenly saw a spiritual light coming from the horizon, which alarmed him.

"What kind of light is this? Why did it come from Xuanjie Mountain? This secret realm hasn't been opened yet..." Linwa Taoist thought about it carefully, and he felt a little confused.

If it were normal, he would naturally not think too much if he was timid. If there is light, there is light. Xuanjie Mountain is so dangerous, so what if there is a little light?
But today, an idea suddenly came to his mind.

"This light is so beautiful. Is there any treasure in this world? If I get this treasure and give it to Fairy Chang'e, will she agree to be my Taoist companion?"

As soon as this idea came out, it stayed in Taoist Linwa's mind for a long time, as if he was possessed... So the timid Taoist Linwa made the boldest decision in his life.

Go to Xuanjie Mountain and take a look. If there is any treasure, take it and offer it to the beauty!
