Chapter 221: Qingming Realm Connections
Liu Bihen's life is dazzling but lonely.
When she was fourteen years old, she followed her master, Master Fuxue, to travel around the world, learning sword techniques from various schools. She challenged countless sects with her sword, no matter they were martial arts sects in the mortal world or Buddhist temples and Taoist temples. Among her peers, no one could defeat her.
At the age of eighteen, she had already achieved the Yin God realm. Her talent in swordsmanship was outstanding and no one could match her.
She sometimes feels confused when she is envied by others.
A set of ordinary sword techniques that can be learned just by looking at it, is it really that difficult?
Why can't those people learn the essence of it even after practicing hundreds of times?
Little did she know that what she saw as ordinary was extremely difficult in the eyes of others, and that it would take years or even decades of practice.
Others asked her how she achieved it and if there was any shortcut.
She said very frankly: "I'll learn it if I just go through it in my mind. Is this a shortcut?"
…
Today, Liu Bihen finally met someone who was very similar to her. That person could learn swordsmanship at a glance and became proficient after practicing it once, and never needed her to explain it a second time.
That person was her senior brother.
In just a few days, he was able to sustain five more moves. Liu Bihen actually understood that this was a huge improvement.
Among her peers, there are few who can last more than five moves at her hands in terms of swordsmanship.
"Junior sister, please stop here today. I'm going to practice thunder magic."
Li Daoxuan felt that his confidence had suffered a great blow and decided to practice thunder magic to change his mood.
Liu Bihen nodded. She stood alone on the top of the mountain, facing the endless night sky and the vast Styx, and began to practice basic swordsmanship.
Unlike Li Daoxuan, she rarely dabbled in other Taoist techniques except swordsmanship.
She has not even practiced the most famous thunder magic in Longhu Mountain.
Dedicated to the sword.
On the top of the mountain, the girl was waving a three-foot-long green sword, her long hair fluttering, her figure light and nimble, like a dancing butterfly, practicing swordsmanship over and over again, as if she would never get tired or bored.
…
Li Daoxuan created many incarnations, some of whom continued to practice sword skills, while others sat cross-legged in meditation, absorbing the spiritual energy of the peach tree.
His original body, together with other incarnations, comprehended the "Shenxiao Five Thunders Orthodoxy".
He is good at both swordsmanship and thunder magic, and he will not let go of either one.
Biting off more than you can chew?
For him who has the ability to clone himself, it is like Han Xin selecting soldiers, the more the better.
Peaceful times always pass by in a flash.
Li Daoxuan practiced with peace of mind in Mount Dushuo and led a very peaceful and fulfilling life.
I practice sword fighting and spar with my junior sister every day.
Then he practiced thunder magic and absorbed spiritual energy. In his spare time, he would play with Momo and visit Mount Dushuo with his junior sister. The only pity is that there is no sunrise or sunset here, only a gray night sky.
It is worth mentioning that Momo has been normal during this period and the black liquid has never appeared again.
As for Taoist Zhou, Li Daoxuan only met a few times. He was very busy setting up and checking the resurrection formation, and the two did not have much time to communicate.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed quickly.
When Taoist Zhou came hurriedly and said that the resurrection array was ready and today was Qingming Festival, Li Daoxuan knew that this peaceful and fulfilling time was finally coming to an end.
What will follow may be a thrilling battle.
…
Back mountain.
A circular magic circle drawn with peach wood ash appeared before everyone's eyes.
The array pattern was extremely complex. At a cursory glance, Li Daoxuan could only barely recognize the patterns of the Eight Diagrams and Yin and Yang. Much of the content was unknown, but it exuded a mysterious atmosphere.
"Is this the Resurrection Formation?"
Li Daoxuan looked at this unfathomable formation and felt a little hesitant.
Do you really want to stand in and try it?
Although Taoist Zhou has been very well-behaved during this period and has been busy setting up the magic circle, he seems to be very dedicated.
But Li Daoxuan was a cautious person, and he still had some resistance to rashly stepping into a formation that he was not familiar with.
But he has no better solution at the moment.
The master's injury cannot be delayed. We don't know when the Ghost King with Empty Belly will have to go through the tribulation. Once he succeeds, it will be too late.
Moreover, if Xudu becomes a ghost fairy, it will be a considerable threat to the Empress.
Thinking of this, Li Daoxuan suddenly felt a headache. If only he could contact the Empress, she would be knowledgeable and would definitely give him some good advice.
It’s a pity that the Qingming Order has become invalid since entering the Yellow Springs Realm, and no matter how Li Daoxuan called, there was no response.
Taoist Zhou nodded and said with a smile: "When I was young, I met a master who taught me three rare books: one on alchemy, one on formation, and one on Qi training."
"The formation book records the Resurrection Formation, which can connect the Yin and Yang worlds and achieve the effect of the netherworld. I originally wanted to use this formation to escape from the underworld, but when I thought about the great revenge that had not been avenged, I was reluctant to leave."
He sighed, "My immortal path in this life is ruined anyway. Even if I go to the mortal world, I will just linger on. I might as well be refined into a puppet. In this case, I might as well stay here and wait for an opportunity."
"Fortunately, the heavens have mercy on me and let me wait for the True Lord!"
Looking at his excited expression, Li Daoxuan didn't know how to start .
He didn't really trust the other person.
"Junior sister, you have a clear mind for swordsmanship. Do you think this Taoist Master Zhou is trustworthy?"
He asked via voice transmission.
Liu Bihen closed his eyes and felt it for a while, then nodded and said, "I didn't detect any hostility or murderous intent from him."
Li Daoxuan's idea moved. Since that was the case, he might as well take a risk and give it a try.
But even if it is risky, he wants to increase his bargaining chips.
"Master Zhou, can I take Momo with me?"
Zhou Laodao was stunned.
"Although this Dushuo Mountain can isolate us from the invasion of the Styx, it is too gloomy after all. Mo Mo doesn't like this place either."
"Besides, I have some connections in the Qingming Realm. I can let Momo live there, or reincarnate into a wealthy family. What do you think?"
After saying this, Li Daoxuan stared closely at Zhou Laodao's eyes, not missing any fluctuations.
If this formation is really dangerous, then the other party would definitely not want his own granddaughter to get involved in it.
Fortunately, Li Daoxuan was relieved that, apart from being a little surprised, Zhou Laodao did not show any other expression.
When he heard that he could let Mo Mo live in Qingming Realm, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.
"Although I am reluctant to let Mo Mo go, it is not a good idea for her to stay here."
After a pause, he pleaded, "True Lord, you also know that Mo Mo is a little abnormal. I heard that the Qingyi Lady in the Qingming Realm is the number one ghost fairy in the world, with great magical powers and boundless power. I wonder if you can ask her to take a look at Mo Mo?"
Taoist Zhou's face turned slightly red. He seemed to know that his request was a bit excessive. If he wanted to ask a powerful person like the Green-Robed Lady for help, he would definitely have to pay a huge price.
Li Daoxuan touched the little girl's head and said with a smile: "Then you have finally found the right person."
After spending some time together, both he and Liu Bihen had a good impression of Momo.
This dirty little girl is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
Whenever Li Daoxuan was practicing, she would always stay away from him and even stopped playing her favorite rattle, for fear of disturbing him.
And when Li Daoxuan finished his training, she would offer him wild flowers she had picked like treasures in exchange for candied haws or other toys.
Li Daoxuan took Momo's hand and walked towards the magic circle with Liu Bihen.
Whether you can return to the world of the living depends on today!
