Chapter 206 The Aftermath of the Cultivation World
Tianji City, Tianji Mansion.
Ouyang was doing his daily sizing up of the female cultivators: "Yeah, this one is pretty good." "That one's back seems okay."...
"Yes, yes, I think she's pretty good too." A cultivator had been replaced beside Ouyang. This cultivator was also a young man, but he had puffy eye bags and a pale face. He looked like someone who was more interested in other things than cultivating the Dao. But such a person could just please Ouyang. However, judging from the attitudes of the two, their status was not much different.
When the two were talking happily, the Tianji Ranking suddenly emitted a dazzling white light, covering the entire hall, shocking and shocking all the cultivators here.
"Which Jindan Grandmaster has fallen?" The same scene happened twenty or thirty years ago, and many people present still remembered it vividly.
But before he finished speaking, the white light on the Tianji List shone again. This time, many cultivators were silently guessing in their hearts: "Could it be that the two Jindan Grandmasters died together?"
When the white light subsided, the cultivators stared at the Tianji List, only to see two names on it dimmed and then slowly disappeared.
"Zou Tai."
"Lin Shenhe."
"Who are these two?" asked a newly promoted Qi-inducing cultivator who had just arrived in Tianji City.
Bai Xiaosheng stood behind him and answered with a serious expression: "Zou Tai, the Ghost Crying Master, and Lin Shenhe, the Black Cloud Wanderer, are both old masters who have been in power for hundreds of years. I didn't expect that they would both die today. It seems that something big must have happened in the world of cultivation."
Ouyang and the young man with swollen bags under his eyes also came over. Although they were both addicted to wine and women, they still had to care about such major events. First, as a second-generation immortal, the basic situation must be mastered. Second, it can be regarded as a topic of conversation with the beautiful cultivator. Otherwise, if the beautiful woman mentions this matter one day, he will know nothing about it, which is really embarrassing.
"I didn't expect that the Ghost Crying Master and the Black Cloud Wanderer would die together. In the past few hundred years, they have been arrogant and have attracted many independent cultivators. They have always ignored the alliance. Hehe, I didn't expect them to be like this today!" The young man with swollen bags under his eyes sneered in shock.
Ouyang looked at the Tianji List with a serious face and said nothing.
Bai Xiaosheng saw Ouyang and the other two coming over, and bowed his hands and saluted: "Master Ouyang, Master Xuan. I wonder why Master Ouyang is silent? Is there any private news?" As a well-informed person, Bai Xiaosheng has a good relationship with Ouyang and Master Xuan, so he asked boldly.
Ouyang shook his head: "No, I just feel that two Jindan masters have fallen at once, and I am afraid that something big has happened, and I am a little uneasy."
Master Xuan was about to answer Bai Xiaosheng's words when he saw the Tianji Ranking emit a dazzling white light for the third time. "How is it possible? How can there be another Jindan master falling?" This is the surprise in Master Xuan's heart, and it is also the voice of all the casual cultivators today. The Jindan masters who are usually high up in the sky have fallen one after another today. It is really hard to believe, but the facts are in front of them, and they have to believe it. After all, in their hearts, the Tianji Ranking will never make mistakes. This is really a big event that shakes the world of cultivation!
When the white light subsided again, Ouyang suddenly exclaimed, looking very surprised, and changed his serious and calm appearance just now.
"Mr. Ouyang?" Bai Xiaosheng called out curiously, and Mr. Xuan also looked over.
Ouyang answered with a strange expression: "I once met the fallen Jindan Grandmaster. I didn't expect that she would die." His expression was a little regretful and a little relieved.
"So Mr. Ouyang knew Fairy Qiqing." Bai Xiaosheng watched the words "Hu Shan" dim and then slowly disappear, but he didn't expect that he had also met Hu Shan here.
After waiting for a while, seeing that the Tianji List did not emit white light again, all the cultivators present breathed a sigh of relief. It was finally over. If another Jindan Grandmaster died, it would really be beyond their ability to accept. Then everyone began to discuss and speculated on the reasons for the death of several Jindan Grandmasters. Some said that they were all killed after encountering the Yinshen Venerable, and some said that they died in an internal conflict after exploring the Immortal Mansion. In short, everyone had their own opinions and reasons.
This matter was discussed for a long time, until it was almost noon, and the cultivators who were in the mood to talk were ready to go to the restaurant to continue. Bai Xiaosheng also invited Ouyang and Master Xuan to go to Shan Ya Lou.
When the two were thinking about it, the Tianji List suddenly burst into a bright white light, which scared the cultivators who had not yet left. What happened today? The Divine Appearance Li Buyi did not say that today was suitable for the death of the Jindan Grandmaster? !
With complicated emotions, hundreds of eyes looked at the dimming name.
"Xuan Yizhen."
Master Xuan's face turned from white to black, then flushed, and finally became paler and bloodless: "How is it possible? How is it possible! Who did it?!" The voice was a little hysterical.
Ouyang looked at him sympathetically: "Don't be too sad, the alliance will definitely find the murderer who killed your grandfather."
…………
In the headquarters of the Loose Cultivator Alliance in Tianji Mansion, all the elders who were not in seclusion or out gathered in a quiet room, a total of four.
One of the middle-aged cultivators, who was dressed in purple robes and had a dignified appearance, glanced at the other three and said in a serious tone, "Elder Xuan is definitely dead. We must find the murderer, otherwise how can the prestige of the Loose Cultivator Alliance be preserved?"
A young girl-like elder nodded in agreement. Although he and Xuan Yi did not get along well with each other on weekdays, and even had conflicts of interest, in this matter, it was inevitable that the rabbit would die and the fox would be sad: "Then please Elder Ouyang, you can use the secret round light to trace back." Technique, find the murderer."
"You can't just see who the murderer is, you have to see what happened, so Elder Ouyang, try to be as early as possible when you use the round light retrospection technique, preferably when Elder Xuan starts to be seriously injured." This is an old man with a wide body and a fat body. , but sitting there has a sense of leisure.
Ouyang Tuo didn't say anything, he stretched out his finger, and the tip of his finger slowly emitted clear light. When the clear light became dazzling, he gently drew a circle with his finger, and then a round clear light water mirror appeared in the air.
The clear water mirror emitted a misty light, and the scene inside began to become clearer, revealing a seven-story pagoda. The top of the tower emitted a golden light towards Xuan Yizhen. However, a small golden seal suddenly flew out of the pagoda, and then It grew bigger and bigger, occupying the entire water mirror screen, and finally broke the clear water mirror into pieces with just one blow.
A trace of blood spilled from the corner of Ouyang Tuo's mouth, and he looked at the tall, fat old man with shock in his eyes: "Great Elder, the person who took action may have reached the realm of Yinshen!"
Wei Cangnan, the Great Elder of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, a top-grade Golden elixir master, Master Yunlei, and ninth on the Tianji Ranking, also had a solemn expression at this time, no longer as leisurely as before: "That's true, but there seems to be something wrong with that person, I don't know. Whether it was because he was seriously injured or because his state was unstable after advancing, there should be no doubt that Elder Xuan died in his hands. "It is really easy for a Yin God Master to kill a low-level Jindan master, so Wei. Cang Nan decided it logically.
"Then shall we find this person's whereabouts?" Ouyang Tuo asked hesitantly.
Wei Cangnan sneered: "Of course I do. At the worst, please invite a few Yin Shen elders to come back. If they really can't come back, you can also invite the Supreme Elder. Otherwise, one of the nine great elders of our casual cultivator alliance will die in such an unknown way." Bai, what will others think of my casual cultivator alliance? Do you still have the confidence to join?"
…………
When Shi Xuan arrived at Tianji City, he had already returned to his original appearance. In addition, the outer elixir could not be used, and his aura was completely different from last time, so no one would connect Shi Xuan with Grandmaster Xingzhao.
Speaking of which, Shi Xuan's reputation in Xihuang is still resounding. After all, as the best swordsman below the Golden Core level, all the monks with more knowledge know about it. It's just that Shi Xuan's appearance is not outstanding, and his friends are not wide. He has been in seclusion or traveling in recent years. He has not attended any grand events, so no portrait has been leaked. Walking on Xihuang Street, naturally no one cares about him. You must know that there is no aura of heaven and earth. It is not only the soul stage that is oppressive, but also the out-of-body stage and Qi-nourishing stage.
At this time, the atmosphere in Tianji City was quite depressing and depressing. From time to time, monks gathered in groups of three or three and whispered. Shi Xuan knew very well that the death of two or more golden elixir masters would definitely stir up a pool of muddy waters in the world of cultivation. This major incident, at least based on Shi Xuan's experience, was second only to the Nanman incident.
However, Shi Xuan only knew that Master Gui Crying and Lin Shenhe were dead. He didn’t know what happened to Hu Shan and Xuan Yizhen, so he pretended to buy a magic weapon and walked into a small-looking magic weapon shop, choosing casually. While casually asking the shopkeeper: "Pindao just returned to Tianji City today. I wonder why the atmosphere on the street is so different from before?"
The shopkeeper was just an out-of-body monk who was already old and frail. Seeing Shi Xuan's extraordinary bearing and lack of spiritual pressure, he guessed based on many years of experience that the other person was a senior in the soul stage, so he smiled flatteringly: "Senior, you don't know something, but Something big happened recently, four golden elixir masters died on the same day!"
"Four golden elixir masters?" Shi Xuan's surprise was genuine. He thought that at least one of Hu Shan and Xuan Yizhen could escape. After all, the golden elixir masters have practiced Taoism for many years and have accumulated a lot, so they always have some means to save their lives. The man in the pagoda had just recovered, so he might not be able to stop him. Unexpectedly, the two of them fell together.
"Isn't it? I don't believe it either, but the Tianji List is there, so no one can disbelieve it! I have lived for more than ninety years and grew up in Tianji City. I have never encountered such a thing. Only Thousands of years ago, there were still many caves outside the Western Wasteland before this kind of situation would happen." The shopkeeper sighed, and then added, "And among the four Jindan Grandmasters, there is Xuan, one of the nine elders of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance. Yizhen, the Rogue Cultivator Alliance will not let this matter go."
Shi Xuan's expression did not change: "Oh, could it be that the Rogue Cultivator Alliance has found the murderer?" Many people should know that Luoxialou Ghost Crying Master will shine on the old immortal, and it is better not to use this identity to show off in the future.
The shopkeeper looked left and right, seeing no one around, and then lowered his voice and said: "This junior has a distant nephew whose neighbor's relative is from the Loose Cultivator Alliance. According to him, this incident was caused by the Ten Thousand Years Corpse King. Because some of them, the golden elixir masters, went hunting for treasures and found them in someone else’s house, so..."
The corner of Shi Xuan's mouth twitched, and after a few perfunctory words, he turned and left, preparing to take the teleportation array back to Penglai. Although Shi Xuan was curious about the underground auction in Tianji City and wanted to see it, he now had a reincarnation disk on him. This kind of treasure is bound to attract pursuit and is worth troublesome times, so it's better not to hang around outside.
