Shi Ning followed Fei Yun and asked in a low voice: "Is Daozu back?"

Fei Yun nodded, "He came back last night."

Shi Ning pursed his lips, feeling a little nervous.

However, Feiyun noticed Shi Ning and asked, "Did you break through?" Shi Ning

replied, "You just broke through the day before yesterday."

Feiyun praised, "That's right, practice hard in the future, you are a smart kid."

Smart kids can Don’t you need to search for spiritual consciousness? Shi Ning thought silently in his heart.

Daozu lived alone in Wuya Mountain. When Shi Ning and Fei Yun arrived, Ling Che, Mu Yue, Zhao Zheng and Zhao Tiantian were all waiting outside the door.

Seeing Shi Ning coming, Zhao Tiantian inevitably showed a bit of disdain, as if telling Shi Ning, you will be dead when you see Dao Ancestor.

Shi Ning Wuxia and Zhao Tiantian looked at the surrounding scenery carefully. The place where Daozu is located is the top of Wuya Mountain. It is steep and difficult to walk from the foot of the mountain to the top. Just now, Shi Ning came here by flying with Feiyun's sword.

Wuya Mountain towers into the clouds, as if you are in a fairyland. There is a simple and profound small building on the top of the mountain. The small building is divided into two floors and is built against the mountain. At this moment, the door in front of the building was tightly closed, which meant that Daozu had not yet allowed them to enter.

Shi Ning stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the towering mountains, and couldn't help but start thinking about how he could escape.

After wandering on the top of the mountain for a while, Shi Ning heard Zhao Tiantian urging: "Why doesn't Dao Ancestor let us in?"

Zhao Zheng glared at Zhao Tiantian and said, "How impudent."

In the past, Zhao Tiantian would pretend to be very patient even if he pretended to be so. It seemed, but the longer she waited, the less sure she felt. If Daozu doesn't want to deal with this matter, then he must let it go based on his father's character. If you want to prove that Shi Ning seizes the body in the future, you will have no chance.

Compared to Zhao Tiantian's urgency, Shi Ning seemed to be much more at ease, although it was just pretending. But Shi Ning really hoped that Daozu would let them in later, so that she would have more time to find a suitable escape route in case of emergency.

Just when Shi Ning was looking down the cliff, the bamboo door suddenly opened from the inside. When everyone looked, they saw Yan Huanming slowly walking from a distance and said: "Taozu, please come in."

Zhao Zheng asked with a frown. "Why are you here?"

Fei Yun asked, "Where is Dao Ancestor?"

Shi Ning didn't know what was going on.

Yan Huanming walked out of the house and said humbly: "Last night, Dao Ancestor suddenly asked his disciples to wait here for the master and the elders."

"What about Dao Ancestor?" Ling Che stepped forward and said.

Yan Huanming: "The Taoist ancestor is like a lonely crane in the clouds. Of course he won't tell me where he is going. He just told his disciples a few words and asked me to wait here."

Zhao Tiantian didn't seem to believe Yan Huanming's words, "How do I know what you said is true? Or is it fake? Today we have to deal with the demon cultivator's seizure. Why is Daozu not here? "

"Even if Daozu is not here, I should inform the elder of anything. Why should I inform you?"

Shi Ning was actually a little surprised. She couldn't help but think of the last time her senior brother said he wouldn't search for spiritual consciousness. Could it really be that his senior brother was using the name of Tao Ancestor?

Yan Huanming said righteously: "If you don't believe me, you will know if I am lying when you come in."

After several people outside the building looked at each other, Zhao Zheng took the lead to walk into the courtyard. As soon as he took a step into the courtyard, Zhao Zheng Sense something wrong.

"Dao Ancestor has set up the afterimage formation inside?"

Yan Huanming nodded, "Exactly."

"Tao Ancestor has always hated demon cultivators, especially those who take bodies and kill people. Therefore, he specially set up this formation. If one of us really If there is a person who seizes the body, then when he passes this method, his soul will be scattered and he will not be reincarnated."

When Shi Ning heard this, his heart suddenly twitched. If the spiritual consciousness was searched before, even if it was proved that the person who took the body had a chance of survival, after all, it was just a search, not a killing. But the afterimage formation is equivalent to killing the person who took the body immediately after discovering it. He didn't even get a chance to say his last words.

The corners of Zhao Tiantian's lips turned up, showing a proud smile, "As expected of the Taoist ancestor, he does things neatly and never gives the person who takes the body a chance."

Huang Xueping stood outside the building and asked: "The Taoist ancestor only left this formation and didn't say anything more. Anything else?"

Yan Huanming shook his head, "The afterimage formation is enough."

It's enough for Shi Ning to die eight times.

Shi Ning stood at the back of the team and took a step back unconsciously. At this moment, Yan Huanming suddenly stopped everyone.

"Everyone, please pass the formation."

Shi Ning turned his head and looked at Yan Huanming. He saw that Yan Huanming had a serious face and could not see any clues.

Senior brother, don’t you know what I’m worried about?

Shi Ning opened his mouth slightly but did not speak. His heart was in a state of confusion and he held the Wen Feng Vine tightly in his hand.

Zhao Zheng asked: "Do each of us have to go through the formation?"

Yan Huanming: "This is what the Taoist commanded. The matter of seizing the body should not be underestimated. Anyone who has experienced this must prove their innocence."

Zhao Zheng nodded, "Taozu has thought carefully." Then he turned to everyone and said: "As the leader, I should set an example. I will go through this formation first."

There are not too many decorations in the small courtyard of the bamboo house. There is a bluestone pavement in the middle. The small path leads to the main entrance on the first floor.

Zhao Zheng stood in front of the bamboo gate and asked Yan Huanming, "The formation is only in the courtyard? Just walk to the wooden door on the opposite side?"

Yan Huanming: "Yes, the Taoist ancestor has set up the afterimage formation between the two doors. As long as he walks safely into the courtyard, it can be proven that he is not the one who took the house. On the contrary, the person who took the house will definitely trigger the killing method of the afterimage formation in the courtyard."

Zhao Zheng took the lead after taking a look at everyone. Stepping into the courtyard, Zhao Zheng did not build the foundation until he was over fifty years old, so his voice and appearance were still around fifty. Today, he was wearing a navy blue gown and walked towards the courtyard without looking back. He had the air of a strong man who never returns when the wind is rustling and the water is cold.

Zhao Zheng's steps were huge, but he didn't walk fast. As he stepped on the stone steps step by step, everyone's eyes followed him. Shi Ning had no intention of looking at Zhao Zheng. At this moment, he only felt that he was in danger. At this moment, Shi Ning suddenly heard the secret voice from Yan Huanming, "Pass the formation."

Shi Ning's eyes revealed a bit of anxiety, but he saw Yan Huanming looking at him firmly, "It's okay, Dao Ancestor, everything has been arranged." OK."

Shi Ning heard Yan Huanming's message again, but there was no reply for a long time. At this moment, she didn't know whether to choose to go through the afterimage formation or run away while everyone's attention was focused on Zhao Zheng.

Too many thoughts flashed through Shi Ning's mind at that moment, and the memories of the months after the time travel flashed by quickly like a movie in his mind. Chengtianmen, Kunshan, Canghai, Fuxingmen, Jiaoyue Mountain. Every memory seemed to become extremely clear, and everything everyone said to her seemed to ring in her ears at the same time.

"Shi Ning."

"Ning Ning."

"Sister."

"Miss Shi Ning."

"Junior sister."

"Shi Ning."

"Xiao Ning, Xiao Ning."

It was as if everyone she knew and didn't know gathered together in an instant. All around Shi Ning, her name was called out one after another. The sound was so close and yet so far away.

"Stop screaming." Shi Ning covered his ears and shouted suddenly.

"Shi Ning, what's wrong with you?" Ling Che's voice clearly reached Shi Ning's ears.

The sweat behind him had already soaked his clothes. Shi Ning lowered his hands feebly and looked at everyone blankly.

Mu Yue asked with concern: "Shi Ning, are you okay? You don't seem to look well."

Shi Ning shook his head and said nothing.

Zhao Tiantian said angrily at the side: "What can happen? I'm afraid. I think that my identity as a demon cultivator will be revealed soon."

The small courtyard is only four or five feet long, and Zhao Zheng has already arrived at the wooden door and is frowning. He frowned and looked at Shi Ning.

"Which elder will be the next to pass through the square formation?" Yan Huanming reminded.

"I'll do it." Ling Che glanced at Shi Ning before passing through the formation. "Are you really okay?"

Shi Ning whispered, "Nothing."

After Ling Che, there was Mu Yue, and after Mu Yue, It's Huang Xueping. The leader and elders had successfully passed through the square formation, and only Shi Ning and Zhao Tiantian were left.

Yan Huanming's eyes flickered between them: "Who's next?"

Zhao Tiantian and Shi Ning were both silent. Zhao Tiantian said arrogantly: "Of course it's Shi Ning. I didn't take away anyone else."

"Junior sister," Yan Huanming said. .

Shi Ning raised his head and scanned for a week. In addition to the afterimage formation, there were suddenly several layers of barriers around him. I don't know which elder did it. With Shi Ning's cultivation, he couldn't escape. He looked at the people in the courtyard again, and now all eyes were focused on him. In addition, Shi Ning felt that there seemed to be someone in the dark, also watching his every move.

Yan Huanming reminded softly: "Let's go."

Because his clothes were soaked with sweat, Shi Ning felt something tingling in his arms at this moment. He took it out and saw that it was Jing Li's dragon scales. The deep black dragon scales lay quietly in the palm of my hand. It was impossible to escape now, and if I acted rashly, I would risk losing my life. After thinking for a long time, Shi Ning decided that it would be better to take a gamble that Dao Ancestor's formation would not identify him.

Shi Ning took the dragon scale back into his arms, breathed a long sigh of relief, and walked towards the courtyard.

But when he arrived at the bamboo gate and took the first step, Shi Ning's heart was still in his throat. The moment his white shoes embroidered with peach blossom patterns stepped onto the bluestone road, he couldn't help but close his eyes.

Nothing happened.

Shi Ning opened his eyes suddenly and tentatively stepped his other foot into the courtyard.

Still nothing happened.

Zhao Tiantian said in disbelief outside the hospital: "How is it possible? Is the formation ineffective?"

Zhao Zheng angrily yelled: "Don't be disrespectful to Taoist ancestors."

Shi Ning took another step forward, but everything was still normal. The hanging heart finally dropped. Shi Ning took three steps and two steps at a time, quickly passing through the afterimage formation. However, at the last step, the formation suddenly started to start. Hurricanes were everywhere, forming a huge vortex in the air. , bursts of gravel rose from the ground.

Shi Ning quickly stepped onto the steps and left the range of the formation.

Zhao Tiantian yelled at the other side: "How dare you say that you didn't seize the body, the formation was activated!" However,

Zhao Zheng raised his hand and said: "It's not the killing formation, Shi Ning didn't seize the body, this is the formation. Remind us."

"Remind us of what?" Shi Ning felt relieved after hearing the first half of the sentence, but the second half was so intense that she became much more nervous.

Zhao Zheng looked at Shi Ning with a bit of pity and guilt in his eyes, "Remind you that there is a soul-fixing needle in your body."

I have been thinking about this for a long time and don't know what to say. I wish everyone to pay attention to the hot weather and prevent strokes. ,be safe.
