Chapter 413: Blue Sky

The sky was covered with low clouds.

The autumn wind was bleak and the rain was falling.

The moment the long gray river appeared, the whole world became as cold and gloomy as death.

But there was a faint sound of water coming into his ears at this moment.

Wei Tao turned slowly and looked to the side in the distance.

A woman in green clothes and skirt came slowly. No matter how strong the wind and rain were, they could not wet her clothes at all.

The female disciple of the Qinglian Sect trembled all over and knelt on the ground immediately, not daring to move.

"Disciple greets the envoy. It was because of this person's intervention that our mission failed."

The green-clothed woman stopped ten steps away and said coldly after a moment of silence.

"Who are you? How dare you attack our disciples?"

"Forget it. Anyway, you will be a dead man soon. There is no need to ask your name. It will only waste my precious time."

She spoke slowly and in a low voice, giving people a gentle feeling.

But the words he said were chilling, as if killing was as easy and natural as eating and drinking.

Wei Tao was slightly startled. He wanted to ask where this so-called envoy came from and what was her relationship with the Qinglian Sect, but now it seemed that there was no need.

This woman was used to being high and mighty, and she didn't know the principle of being humble and cautious in dealing with people.

She wanted to say something fatal as soon as she opened her mouth, which made people want to beat her.

Apart from that, she could not think of anything else.

At this moment, a breeze blew quietly.

In an instant, the fragrance floated with the wind, and the lotus leaves stretched out.

The green lotus bloomed in the void above, and the petals bloomed.

There were also auspicious clouds, and the jade green light reflected, showing the vitality.

Suddenly, in the depths of the green lotus auspicious clouds full of vitality, there was an inexplicable sound of water.

A strong breath of death and decay appeared silently from the source of the water sound.

It was a gray and decayed river phantom.

Inside, waves were rising, cold, empty and dead, as if they wanted to devour the vitality of all living things and send them to the unknown place of afterlife.

The auspicious clouds of the blue lotus showed vitality.

The long gray river surged with death.

The two were clearly distinct, but they merged into one in a strange way, as if they were indistinguishable from each other.

Wei Tao stood there motionless.

He did not fight back with violence.

He did not withdraw, retreat or dodge.

He was just a little absent-minded, watching the various strange phenomena happening in front of him in silence.

He did not expect that this woman's character would be so anxious that she could not even finish her words and was impatient to attack.

She fought and did it as soon as she said it, and was even more irritable than him.

But what attracted Wei Tao's attention more was the secret killing move she performed.

Whether it was the blue lotus or the long gray river, it made his mind full of thoughts and emotions.

The secret method of the blue lotus.

She used the authentic Qinglian Secret Method.

Moreover, the feeling brought to him by the true meaning of Qinglian Weak Water was even purer and more advanced than that of the previous Qinglian Saint, as if the two sides were practicing different methods.

"The Qinglian Secret Method can be developed in this way. I thought it was a bit simple before."

"So, can the Red Lotus Karma Fire that is integrated with the Ten-Headed Ghost Car also be explored in depth, so that it can go further on the original basis and reach a higher level?"

At the moment when Wei Tao was stunned, the attack of the green-clothed woman did not stop at all.

In an instant, she had crossed the distance of ten steps, and the slender palm hidden in the Qinglian Green Lotus had come close to him, about to be imprinted on the center of his brow.

"I thought he was so powerful, but he turned out to be just a show-off with a silver-plated spear head."

"I haven't used my full strength yet, but I've already scared him so much that he can't move. It's a waste of my efforts."

"It's just bad luck for him to meet me. I hope he can keep this kind of arrogance in the next life, so that I can kill him again with my own hands."

Swish!

The breeze blew gently, and the white hand fell.

She looked at the pair of eyes that were obviously absent-minded, and a disdainful smile appeared on her face.

At this moment, Wei Tao suddenly came back to his senses.

He raised his head slightly, his eyes moved up, and he saw the jade-like delicate arm and the slender white hand that was about to fall.

"Blind perception, hide yourself, even I was affected a little."

Wei Tao's eyes flickered, and he still stood there motionless.

He just thought for a little while.

Thinking too deeply and too much about the problem involved a lot of energy.

It seems that he can't dodge this palm.

But it doesn't matter if he can't dodge.

There was no need to turn around and dodge an attack of this magnitude.

If he tried to block it, he could have blocked it, but he didn't want to do it.

He just wanted to experience for himself how effective this unique Qinglian secret method was.

Is there anything he could learn from it?

Snap!

The green-clothed woman's handprints changed one after another, and finally printed them on Wei Tao's forehead like lightning.

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of "click".

At the same time, a cry of pain that was suppressed to the extreme came out.

There was also blood spraying and splashing, which quickly mixed with the autumn rain and disappeared.

Click!

Click, click!

Wei Tao slowly moved his neck, and the cloud-patterned black scales on his forehead disappeared, and the sharp bone spurs disappeared.

There was a small piece of blood on it, which he gently wiped away with his hand.

The next moment, Wei Tao lowered his head slightly, looking down at the slumped woman in green, "The secret method of Qinglian that you practice seems to be a little different from what I know."

Her right palm was bloody and bent upward at a sharp angle, and the pale bone stumps were clearly visible.

The blood dripped down, and soon soaked a large area of ​​the green dress.

The woman in green raised her face full of cold sweat and said with difficulty, "Who are you!?"

"At this time, you are still talking to me with such an attitude. You are really courageous.

As a weak person, you must have the consciousness of a weak person. You must know that I am asking you now, not asking you to interrogate me."

Wei Tao's voice sounded slowly, mixed with the bleak autumn wind, as if it was directly spread in her heart.

The woman in green struggled to get up, and immediately affected the wound, and couldn't help but spurt out another mouthful of blood.

She bit her lower lip tightly, trying to find where he was.

But in front of her was a scarlet color, occupying all her sight.

Red lotuses bloomed quietly, triggering the fire of ignorance to burn quietly.

There was also a ten-headed strange bird that was looming, happily flying in the depths of the blood-colored light, and occasionally making a shrill cry like a ghost crying.

"Red lotus fire, ten-headed ghost car?"

"It's really hard to believe that the Blue Lotus Dharma has merged with the true meaning of the Holy Spirit. This is also the source of the erosion of the spirit and the illusion."

"Unconsciously, I have been affected to this extent, and I can't even tell the false from the real."

She wanted to retract her gaze, but her eyes seemed to be firmly fixed, and it was difficult to move away from the red lotus fire and the ten-headed ghost car.

She could only let them erode the true spirit and soul little by little, and accelerate the fall in the blood-colored abyss, getting deeper and deeper.

"Spiritual fire, nine-change red lotus."

Wei Tao's voice sounded again, like a soul-soothing divine song, soothing her frightened and confused expression, and gradually becoming calm and peaceful.

Time passed little by little.

The woman in green slowly knelt down and put her forehead on the cold ground, as if she had become a statue without a soul.

Wei Tao never spoke again.

He just stared at her silently, and after a moment, he suddenly pointed a finger at her forehead.

Chi!

A hole went through the front and back.

Blood and brain matter flowed out of it and slid down her cheek.

She didn't say a word, and fell to the ground softly, losing all her life.

"Compared with that female Taoist priest, her true spirit is much more fragile, and she can't withstand the erosion of the ghost car fire at all. She was directly affected and turned into a fool."

"I was thinking about getting more secrets about Qinglian from her, but it's a pity."

But he didn't care much about it.

After all, the monk can run away, but the temple can't. As long as he can find the place of rebirth at the source of the weak water, there are people who can answer his questions, and there is no need to stick to the life and death of a so-called envoy.

Wei Tao looked away from the woman in green and raised his head to the gradually darkening sky.

The rain was getting heavier.

The wind from the northern wilderness lowered the temperature further, bringing a deeper chill.

He walked in the wilderness, thinking about the problem of the true spirit and the body.

The fusion of the spirit and the body is the earthly immortal.

But the situation he is facing now is that the true spirit cannot completely control the body.

Especially after swallowing a large amount of the essence of the earthly immortal, not only is he getting further and further away from the fusion of the spirit and the body, he is even on the verge of losing control.

"The body is too strong, the spirit is too weak, and the influence of various true meanings and mysteries has led to the current situation."

"This is a bad thing, but it is also a good thing. As the saying goes, discovering problems and solving them can make it a great opportunity to push me further."

"I still have to continue to strengthen my spirit and soul. As long as I can achieve a new balance between the two, I will be standing at the door to the earthly immortal realm.

When I take a step forward, I will be able to break through the barrier and climb up. Although I am not an earthly immortal in the traditional sense, I have at least the strength level of the earthly immortal realm.

Martial arts practice, the fourth realm of Yang, if I can follow the path I have chosen, I can refer to the path I have taken all the way to practice and divide a new realm above the true spirit and the mysterious law."

"Use martial arts to understand the Tao, transcend the ordinary and become a saint, and fight against immortals. This is the martial saint."

Wei Tao thought silently, and suddenly remembered what the corpse-reincarnation immortal said on the Xuanbing Sea.

In the ancient times of this world, it is said that there were witches and liches working together to complete the feat of breaking the connection between heaven and earth.

Warriors receive spiritual thoughts to refine their bodies and strengthen their true spirits. In ancient times, this kind of practice was called witches, and those who could transform spirits into gods were called great witches.

Therefore, if warriors such as the Northern Wilderness King and the Xuan Shen Clan Chief can continue to move forward, they will embark on the path of practice to become great witches.

Then, in reverse speculation, warriors living in the territory of the Great Zhou in ancient times took all kinds of true thoughts as the foundation, which not only affected the true spirits and souls, but also extended the changes to the main body, gradually becoming very different from ordinary people.

Could it be that the path they took was the demon in the combined power of witches and demons mentioned by the Corpse Immortal?

Thinking of this, Wei Tao couldn't help but frown slightly.

Silently, cloud-patterned black scales emerged, and sharp bone spurs grew.

There were also four wings and two tails, which stretched and swam around the body.

Wei Tao took a deep breath of cool air and slowly exhaled the hot breath.

He raised his head little by little and looked at the dark rain curtain directly above him.

Scarlet blood light lingered, and nine ghost chariots flew up and down in it, stirring the spirit and disturbing the soul.

Next to the bloody light, blazing flames rose and burned, and the Suzaku was reborn from the fire, and its spirituality gradually became brighter.

There are also mist and flowing clouds, and the scales of tan snakes are flashing, and their bodies seem to be infinite, but they also seem not to exist.

As well as the possession of black scales with cloud patterns and the appearance of a turtle and snake covered with sharp bone spurs, the dark death intention aroused is like a surging tide.

Finally, there is a huge figure with disheveled hair and bare feet, unknown to the world, located in the center of all the visions.

boom! ! !

Wei Tao suddenly stepped on the ground.

Huangji Jingshi, Hunyuan returned to one, and punched forward.

The figure with disheveled hair and bare feet punched forward simultaneously, causing Xuanwu Suzaku and Ghost Chariot Snake to move together.

All the forces merged into one, and a majestic shock wave swept across, clearing the vast dark rain curtain in an instant.

A blazing black mark was formed on the ground.

Wei Tao slowly calmed down his breathing, closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Time passed little by little.

The expression in his eyes finally became calm.

"I am different from them in ancient times."

"No matter what my true meaning or mystical thoughts are, they cannot affect my thoughts."

"As for these black scale bone spurs and snake tail wings, they are just external appearances and have nothing to do with whether I am a human or not."

"In the final analysis, I am just an ordinary person with a stronger body, stronger strength, longer organs, and the ability to shine and breathe fire."

"As for the problem of the existence of the true spirit and the physical body, it cannot be completely solved overnight. It is better to seize the time to go home and rest and adjust for a while before talking about anything else."

……………………

……………………

The wind howled and water vapor filled the air.

Fine raindrops fell on the river, causing countless ripples.

Wei Tao went south along the Mingshui River.

There was no stop on the way, and he headed straight towards the direction of Qizhou Fucheng.

Two days later, he passed through a low bush and stopped at the top of a rocky slope.

As far as the eye can reach, Qinglin Mountain can be seen towering in front of them.

"I don't know if there have been any changes to the mountain gate."

"On the way from Cangyuan City, the activities of the Qinglian Cult seem to be somewhat frequent, and the disputes with the Spiritual God Cult are getting more and more intense. I don't know if it has affected Qizhou Fucheng either."

Wei Tao gathered his thoughts and looked around.

Staring at the rapidly darkening environment around him, his expression also became a little confused.

I don’t know when it started, the howling north wind and the falling cold rain disappeared without a trace.

Only the sound of rushing water reached my ears from far to near.

The aura of defeat spread quickly.

There was no light and no sound could be heard.

As if entering chaos, all five colors are blinded, all five sounds are lost, and only an almost endless gray and defeated aura is left to wash away.

It's like falling into the land of the dead, cold and dead, full of death and absolutely devoid of any breath of life.

"Weak water covers the body and destroys vitality."

Wei Tao stretched out his hand to pass the gray and defeated aura in front of his eyes, and a hint of enlightenment arose in his heart.

over time.

The aura of dejection became stronger and stronger.

It has turned into a vast fog, covering everything around this rocky slope.

Snap!

The sound of footsteps came from the depths of the gray mist.

Wei Tao slowly turned around and looked in that direction.

Snap!

The footsteps were closer.

Immediately afterwards, a long sigh sounded.

It caused the gray mist to surge wildly, even forming a giant vortex.

Wei Tao slowly walked down the stone slope, and the white flames suddenly rose, approaching the vortex step by step.

The gray fog suddenly condensed, and a vague figure appeared from the bottom of the vortex.

He stopped at this moment, with some scrutiny and curiosity in his eyes, silently observing the blazing white flames and the person wrapped in the flames.

Wei Tao took his time and moved forward step by step.

As the distance between the two parties got closer, the landing point of each step he took became more and more precise, leaving increasingly clear burning footprints on the ground.

"You were the one who killed me."

The blurry figure sighed quietly and took another step forward.

Boom!

At this moment, Wei Tao suddenly stepped on the ground, and suddenly there was a thunderous roar.

The two figures moved forward like lightning and suddenly collided.

Then they stepped back and stood firmly several feet apart.

The blazing white flame burned fiercely, intertwined with the gray vortex, and made continuous explosions, which also illuminated the blurry figure clearly.

This is a gentle and elegant middle-aged man.

His temples are already a little gray, making it difficult to tell his exact age.

"I seem to have underestimated you."

"Your level of strength seems to be even higher than mine."

He carefully observed the collision between the white flames and the gray mist, and then set his sights on Wei Tao again.

"Originally, in my opinion, the biggest difficulty was how to find you."

"Only after I found you did I realize that I was facing a bigger problem."

"Your existence has exceeded my expectations. Even the secrets recorded in the fragments of ancient books and the demon cultivators who appeared in this world in ancient times do not seem to possess several mysterious thoughts at the same time like you. True meaning.”

Wei Tao asked, "I know the origin of the great witch, so what is the foundation of the demon cultivator?"

"The term demon is quite broad and does not have a strict definition."

"For example, the ancient holy spirits such as Suzaku Xuanwu and Gui Che Tan Snake who are in contact with you, as well as many later inhuman and evil beings, can be called monsters."

"As for the demon cultivator I just mentioned, it can only be treated in this way. That is to use a human body to cultivate evil power and walk the path of demons. This is the origin of you demon cultivators."

"Please pay attention to your words. I am not a demon cultivator, just an ordinary person."

Wei Tao first corrected the other party's statement sternly, and then continued, "I roughly understand what you mean, and someone said before that the lichs work together to reach the heaven and the earth. Do you know what this means? "

The man was silent for a moment, "The connection between heaven and earth will naturally cut off the connection between this world and the outside world."

"Why cut off contact?"

"Maybe it was to get rid of restraint and control, or maybe it was to avoid disaster. I was not a witness to these events, so I don't know much about the causes and consequences at that time."

Wei Tao thought for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject, "Are you also the envoy mentioned by the Qinglian cultivators?"

The middle-aged man shook his head, "The envoy can't talk about it. We just realized the true meaning of Ruoshui and rediscovered the inheritance sign that was cut off at the beginning, and finally found this lost land."

"You have a sense of the true meaning of weak water, so the source of weak water and the place of death are not actually at the headquarters of Qinglian Sect?"

"The blue sky above is poor and the yellow spring is below, and both places are nowhere to be seen."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "The weak water of Huangquan is naturally in Biluo Huangquan. What Qinglian owns is just a tributary intercepted by those big people."

Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed with emotion, "But the world you live in is also quite strange. It can actually give birth to four green, red, purple and mysterious lotus terraces from the tributaries. Such treasures are not available even in our Biluo Huangquan. Common.

I still remember that after His Highness Biluo woke up, he attached great importance to the matter of retrieving the lost beacon. From this, we can also deduce that your place seems to have a unique meaning. "

Wei Tao was also very curious about this, "What's the unique meaning?"

"When we take you back, if you are lucky enough, you may be personally summoned by His Highness Biluo. If that time comes, you can find out by asking His Highness yourself."

The middle-aged man said, suddenly lowering his eyes, "I have told you so much, you should be satisfied."

"It's a pleasure to communicate with you and let me know a lot of interesting history."

Wei Tao nodded, "Your companion has just arrived here, so you are not going to drag it on any longer?"

"Your perception is very keen, and you discovered her arrival immediately."

The middle-aged man sighed, "I'm just curious. Since you know, why don't you run away?"

"You must know that the disciple who came here is a disciple of His Highness Biluo. His cultivation has broken the barrier between immortals and mortals, and he has achieved the realm of immortals without leakage. I cannot compare with him at all.

Although you are more powerful than me, in front of Miss Hongxi, you are nothing more than a chicken and a dog.

This is the difference between immortals and mortals. Whether you are willing to admit it or not, this is the most cold and practical reality. "

"run?"

"Why should I run?"

"Is there any difference between immortals and mortals?"

"I also want to see where she can take me!"

Wei Tao took a deep breath and kept breathing.

Until all the white flames are absorbed into the body.

boom! ! !

Suddenly a thunder exploded.

He stretched his hideous and terrifying body, slowly lowered his head and looked down, "You think you and I are on par with each other, but you are so different, you are really looking down on yourself.

In fact, in the collision just now, I was afraid that I would crush you to pieces accidentally, so I didn't dare to really stretch my body! "

"you you……"

"You are a demon cultivator, a hybrid demon cultivator!"

The middle-aged man's eyes were dull and he looked up, unable to speak for a while.

"You are the demon cultivator, and your whole family is a demon cultivator!"

Bang!

A leg as thick as an encircling giant tree, with black dragon bones covering its body, stepped down suddenly.

There was a puddle of soft mud-like stuff on the ground.

Wei Tao turned his eyes and quickly focused on the beach on the other side of Mingshui.

He saw a beautiful woman standing alone with her hands behind her back.

She was surrounded by gray mist, with fairy spirit floating in the air, as if she was the protagonist of the entire world.

Wei Tao opened his mouth full of sharp fangs and was about to say something, but suddenly he was stunned.

His pupils contracted and he narrowed his eyes.

Seeing Miss Hongxi turning around and running away without hesitation, her strength and speed were so great that a huge cloud of smoke and dust was thrown up behind her. She didn't care at all that the intricately decorated dress had been torn into a mess. .

It formed an extremely sharp contrast with the peaceful and peaceful demeanor that had just come through the mist.
