In that distant little black house

Chapter 57

Sure enough, after that loud noise, the purple flame that originally surrounded Lu Guijiu's body gradually turned into the shape of a giant dragon.

The giant dragon surrounded Lu Guijiu, and let out bursts of roars. As Lu Guijiu absorbed more spiritual energy, it became bigger and bigger. After a while, it almost filled the entire cave.

After Zhang Jingmo protected his body with spiritual energy, he found that the dragon-shaped flame was extremely domineering, and it actually started to devour the protective spiritual energy on his body at an extremely fast speed.

Zhang Jingmo had never heard of such a strange phenomenon when someone built a foundation, and he presumably had something to do with the "Blood Prison Book".

The dragon shape gradually changed from a flame to a solid body, leaving Lu Guijiu's body, cruising and galloping in the wide cave, as if it had a life of its own.

This strange scene lasted for about half a stick of incense, and the flame turned into a dragon, which began to burn and melt the surrounding stones, and it was about to turn this spirit vein into lava.

Fortunately, after half a stick of incense, Lu Guijiu's absorption of spiritual energy slowed down, You Long was no longer so active, and his already solid figure gradually faded away.

At this time, Zhang Jingmo saw Lu Guijiu open his mouth slightly, and let out a long and sharp howl. The howling sound was so loud that it pierced Zhang Jingmo's chest.

At this moment, Lu Guijiu finally opened his eyes. His eyes were out of focus, but he could see a dense purple in them.After a while, the purple became more and more intense, and finally turned into an ink-like jet black.

Afterwards, Lu Guijiu's eyes brightened, and he saw Zhang Jingmo who was sitting beside him, protecting the Dharma for him.

Zhang Jingmo said: "How?"

Lu Guijiu nodded and said, "Top ten."

Hearing these two words, Zhang Jingmo's tense mood was relieved. He noticed that there was a monk's breath approaching around him, and he knew that it was Lu Guijiu's abnormal state of building the foundation, which had attracted the attention of others.Zhang Jingmo looked around at the messy spiritual veins, stood up and said with a smile, "Let's get out of here first."

Lu Guijiu nodded, and followed Zhang Jingmo and flew out of the cave.

After the two left the cave, they realized that the pink mist above the Dead Sea had dissipated. Fortunately, no monk had discovered the entrance for the time being.

However, others found that it was only a matter of time. Zhang Jingmo had almost used this spiritual vein, and even if he discarded it, he would not feel distressed at all.

He cast a concealment spell on himself and Lu Guijiu, and the two of them headed into the distance.

Not long after the two left, the monks from Baiyue Pavilion arrived here, and soon found the black reef. However, when they went down to check, they found that there was a spiritual vein that was mostly absorbed under the reef.

Seeing this scene, all the monks showed a look of horror, but although most of the spirit veins have gone, they are still cherished very much, and it is a resource worth fighting for.

It's just that I don't know why so many spiritual veins have been absorbed, and how powerful the monk who absorbed this spiritual vein is.

After Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu flew for a few days, they randomly found a mountain and started to consolidate their cultivation.Lu Guijiu had Zhang Jingmo by his side, so he was not afraid, and after he woke up half a year later, the tenth rank spiritual platform was completely established.

After Lu Guijiu opened his eyes, the first thing he called out was: "Master."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Very good." Knowing that Lu Guijiu could build a tenth-grade spiritual altar, he was naturally very happy, but under this joy, he was somewhat curious, and he asked, "What is your altar? What does it look like?"

In fact, everyone's spiritual platform is different, but the grade is similar. Even if there are differences in details, the scale is similar.

Zhang Jingmo's Lingtai is very ordinary, it is only the size of a country, in this world of comprehension where talents come out in large numbers, they can only be called ordinary people.

In the first life, Lu Guijiu declared to the outside world that the Lingtai was no more than the sixth rank, but Zhang Jingmo didn't believe it at all when he thought about it now.No one knows better than him how far the sixth-grade Lingtai can go...

Lu Guijiu listened to Zhang Jingmo's question, thought for a while, and then said four words: "The universe is prehistoric."

Hearing this, Zhang Jingmo sighed, "As expected, you did not disappoint my teacher."

Lu Guijiu smiled and said, "Master has done so much for me, how could I let Master down again."

Zhang Jingmo smiled lightly when he heard the words.

After successfully building the foundation, it is time to return to the Lingxu Sect. Zhang Jingmo still has other things to do.

But as early as 80 years ago, Zhang Jingmo's friend Yu Fen sent him a message, saying that Ku Changu had gone crazy looking for him, and told him not to come back.

Before Lu Guijiu built the foundation, Zhang Jingmo also breathed with Yu Fen. Yu Fen said that the outside world is now rumored that Zhang Jingmo is dead. Come back, when will you come back.

Zhang Jingmo said he would return soon.Yu Fen told him to be more careful.

No one knows better than Zhang Jingmo how persistent and vengeful Tianlu in Dry Zen Valley is, but he still has to provoke him, because if Tianlu is allowed to develop naturally, when the demons invade, Zhang Jingmo What will be faced is a powerful enemy on both sides.

Lu Guijiu asked Zhang Jingmo what's next.

Zhang Jingmo said: "Of course I went back."

Lu Guijiu didn't know about Tianfeng's death. For 80 years, things changed and people changed. He said: "Wherever the master goes, the apprentice will follow."

Zhang Jingmo nodded and said, "Do you still remember what you promised me a hundred years ago."

Lu Guijiu froze, "What?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "You promised me that if you succeed in building the foundation, you will follow Shuying to learn the ten-year formation."

Only then did Lu Guijiu remember what he had promised Zhang Jingmo, the words had already been spoken, and he couldn't destroy his words, but when he thought that he and Zhang Jingmo had only met for a short time, and they were about to separate again, his heart sank a little.

Zhang Jingmo said lightly, "You don't want to?"

Lu Guijiu said: "I am willing."

Zhang Jingmo said: "The road ahead will be even more difficult. If you learn one more skill at this time, you will have a way to save your life in the future." This is what it means to not overwhelm yourself with skills.

Lu Guijiu knew that Zhang Jingmo was doing it for his own good, and his master had already paid so much for him that he couldn't say no to it.

So when he was young, he learned swords from Bai Lingxiao, even though he was unwilling in his heart, Lu Guijiu still complied.

Zhang Jingmo said again: "The matter of your tenth-grade Lingtai is too shocking. I will help you set up a ban to cover it up, and you should be careful not to expose your flaws." He is not strong enough now, so naturally he cannot protect Lu Gui Jijiu, just like this, had to keep Lu Guijiu from hiding his clumsiness.

Lu Guijiu nodded in response.

Zhang Jingmo thought for a while, but still said that Tianfeng died, and that Kuchangu told Lu Guijiu about his feud with him.Lu Guijiu will know about this sooner or later, the sooner he knows, the sooner he will be more prepared.

However, Zhang Jingmo didn't know that Lu Guijiu had already remembered the three names of Tianlu Tianfeng Tianlu in his mind, and made a plan in his heart. After becoming stronger, he would directly destroy this faction.

At this time, when he heard Zhang Jingmo say that Tianfeng was dead, there was an indistinct disappointment in his eyes.

Zhang Jingmo didn't pay attention to these small details of Lu Guijiu, he said: "Now there are rumors in the sect that I am dead, after you go back, be careful in everything."

Lu Guijiu nodded and said yes.

Zhang Jingmo thought for a moment, then smiled freely again, he said: "You can't talk about the tenth-rank Lingtai, but you can talk about the ninth-rank Lingtai. I want to let them see how up-to-date my apprentice Zhang Jingmo is." He said, Also showed a proud look.

Lu Guijiu saw it in his eyes, and felt as sweet as eating honey.

After getting ready, Zhang Jingmo sent a message to the sect leader and Yu Fen, and flew towards the sect together with Lu Guijiu.

The two flew for dozens of days before arriving at the boundary of the Lingxu Sect. Zhang Jingmo arrived at the mountain gate, but saw the head and several elders already waiting at the gate.

Seeing Zhang Jingmo's return, the head was about to smile, but the smile froze on his face.Just because he found that Zhang Jingmo's realm had fallen so badly, his face was not only pale, but also very tired - obviously he was not doing well.

It's no wonder that after eating Rohe Dan, entering the Wall of Cold Mirror, and then helping the disciple build a foundation, it seems like a gift from heaven to be able to come back alive.

The headmaster forced a smile and said, "Qingyuan, you're back."

Different from the high-spiritedness with Lu Guijiu before, Zhang Jingmo standing in front of the mountain gate looked extremely weak at this time, his face was pale, and he coughed twice from time to time, but when he heard the words of the master, he gave a wry smile: "Yes! ,came back."

Yu Fen stood beside the head of the sect, with a look of unbearable expression on his face.

The headmaster looked at Lu Guijiu's cultivation again, but he was a little surprised. He was not surprised that Lu Guijiu had already established his foundation, but was surprised by the majestic aura on Lu Guijiu's body—obviously it must be the Ninth Grade Lingtai.

Under Zhang Jingmo's sect, there was another foundation-establishing disciple of the Ninth-Rank Lingtai!This is a big deal for the Lingxu faction!

When the other elders saw Lu Guijiu's situation, they all showed surprise. Seeing Zhang Jingmo's crumbling appearance, he didn't know what method he used to drag out two disciples of the ninth-rank Lingtai!But judging by Zhang Jingmo's severely injured appearance, it is possible that these two disciples made wedding dresses for others...

The head of the sect just wanted to say that Zhang Jingmo was confused, but with Lu Guijiu present, he couldn't say much, it's just a pity that there was an extra point between his brows.

Yu Fen was not as restrained as the head of the sect, he opened his mouth and said, "Yo, you are still alive, I thought the next time I saw you would be the time to collect the corpse for you."

Zhang Jingmo couldn't do anything about his good friend, so he coughed a few times on purpose, pretended to be weak, and said, "Yu Fen, I have no other choice..."

Yu Fen snorted, but didn't say any more.

Lu Guijiu had listened to Zhang Jingmo's orders long ago, and now seeing Zhang Jingmo gasping for breath, he stepped forward to support Zhang Jingmo, and very cooperatively made a look of grief and indignation, saying in his mouth: "Master, wait for Guijiu If you become stronger, I will avenge you!"

Zhang Jingmo said: "Guijiu, I can only count on you as a teacher..."——The master and the apprentice entered the role very quickly when they started acting. Their eyes and expressions were all vivid, and they were watching from the sidelines. Yu Fen's eyes almost turned red.

Originally, the head of the sect planned to talk to Zhang Jingmo in detail, but seeing that he was so weak that he might collapse at any time, he couldn't speak directly, so he just said: "You should go back to the house to rest, and I will come to you again after two days .”

Zhang Jingmo nodded, and went back with Lu Guijiu's support.

After the two left, Yu Fen followed suit, and the sect leader stood where he was, with the sympathetic look on his face gradually fading away.

"Master Zhang, Zhang Jingmo already looks like this, what do you think about that?" After the other elders left, the remaining elder with the surname of Gong asked suddenly.

The master's face was expressionless: "Qingyuan apprentice, ninth-rank Lingtai, what rank is your apprentice?"

The elder's face turned blue and red, and after a while, he turned from embarrassment to anger: "Then you mean that you disagree?"

The leader said coldly: "What's the use of my agreement, I didn't get the lead."

The elder sneered a few times: "I don't need you to do anything for me, as long as you don't interfere."

The head sneered, "Miyagi, I think you're about to lose your head because of your apprentice."

The elder said: "Even if there is no apprentice of mine, no one would want the weapon that was made out of that head. Gong Jiguang is a stubborn old man, it doesn't make sense... I don't bother to tell him."

The head of the sect said lightly: "I'm also stubborn, and it doesn't make sense—you can go to Qingyuan and talk about it, maybe it will make sense." After he finished speaking, he walked away, obviously unwilling to say any more at this time.

The elder named Miyagi was still unwilling, and he gritted his teeth for a long time in the direction of Zhang Jingmo's departure.

It is a big event for Zhang Jingmo to return home.

It only took a moment for the news to spread throughout the Lingxu Sect, and at the same time, the news quickly spread to the Dry Chan Valley.

When Tian Wan heard the news, she showed a shocked expression, Zhang Jingmo was still alive, how could he still be alive? !Now that Tianlu was retreating again, she had nowhere to ask, so she was very angry for a while, and she vented her anger on the disciples under her sect.

Tian Feng's death hit Tian Wan very hard, and after she found out that Tian Lu was not too sad about Tian Feng's death, the gap between the two of them grew even bigger.Tian Wan also thought about Zhang Jingmo, but she always thought that Zhang Jingmo was dead, but she never thought that Zhang Jingmo was still alive, as Tianlu said, not only alive, but also raised a ninth grade Apprentice of Lingtai!

Tian Wan was furious when she heard the news, and destroyed her own cave. She ordered in a cold voice: "In the Dry Chan Valley, there are those who take Zhang Jingmo's life, and they will be rewarded!"

The disciples under the door took orders tremblingly. Seeing the disciples going out, Tian Wan turned around and held up the spirit tablet from Tianbong, sobbing and crying, she mourned: "My poor brother, your brother doesn't love you, I will let my sister avenge you... If you have a bad life over there, you must tell my sister..."

Since Zhang Jingmo dared to come back, he was ready to face the wrath of Tianwan and Tianlu, besides, he knew that Tianlu would not leave Dry Chan Valley for hundreds of years after retreating this time, and Tianwan, who was in the Golden Core stage, He is nothing to be afraid of.

After returning to the cave, Zhang Jingmo put away his weak appearance and said, "Guijiu, after a few days, you and I will go find Shuying together."

Lu Guijiu could only respond.

Zhang Jingmo calculated the time again, and said, "If you are right, the sword that Gong Jiguang forged for you should be ready soon."

Lu Guijiu nodded upon hearing this.

The master and apprentice didn't say a few words, and Yu Fen came to the door. He didn't mention the drink this time, and he still looked unhappy when he was at the mountain gate. After knocking on the door, he walked into the house.

Zhang Jingmo was half lying on the soft side at this time, and he looked weak again, he said: "Yu Fen, long time no see."

Yu Fen took a sip and cursed: "Zhang Jingmo, you idiot, you take your own life for nothing? Who is Lu Guijiu to you? Is it your own son? You dote on him so much that you want to fight Your own life?" He didn't care that Lu Guijiu was still there, and opened his mouth to curse.

Lu Guijiu wasn't angry when he heard this, but immediately remembered the scene of Zhang Jingmo cutting off his limbs with his sword, his cheeks twitched, apparently forcibly suppressing the strong emotion.

Zhang Jingmo said helplessly: "I haven't seen you for decades, when did you become so fierce?"

Yu Fen said angrily: "What's wrong with me becoming fierce, it's better than becoming stupid." Before meeting Lu Guijiu, he, a fellow Taoist, had always looked deserted and restrained in everything he did. Now With this apprentice, although he is a little more popular, his head seems to have become stupid.

Zhang Jingmo sighed: "You have reminded me so much, but I remembered something..."

Yu Fen said angrily, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "Do you remember... a hundred years ago, you and I made a bet?"

Yu Fen said: "..." After Zhang Jingmo's reminder, he immediately remembered the content of the bet.

If Lu Guijiu builds the foundation within a hundred years, he will not take a step beyond the Lingxu Sect within a hundred years... Fortunately, he was still thinking of getting a Huo Rong Pill, but it turned out that Zhang Jingmo dug a hole for him to jump into. Go in!

Zhang Jingmo said with a smile: "I believe in Fellow Daoist Yu, I won't break my promise..."

Yu Fen's expression twisted, and he said, "It's fortunate that you still remember this matter at this time."

Zhang Jingmo looked at Yu Fen's vivid expression, and the smile on his face became softer. He took out a pill from his bosom, and put it in front of Yu Fen: "Take it."

Yu Fen was taken aback for a moment, but quickly recognized that it was the Huo Rong Pill in Zhang Jingmo's hand.

Yu Fen said, "What do you mean?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "If you recognize me as a friend, accept it." When he spoke, there was a faint look of fatigue between his brows and eyes, "I have no hope of breaking through, and my apprentice is using this pill at this time. The medicine is too wasteful, haven't you been looking for an opportunity to break through? This Huo Rong Pill is given to you."

Yu Fen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't refuse any more. He grabbed the elixir with trembling hands, got up and walked out without saying a word.

Lu Guijiu waited for Yu Fen to go far away before he asked softly, "Master... If Uncle Yu finds out about you in the future..."

Zhang Jingmo said without pain or itching: "If you can't break it, you can't stand it. This person just needs to be forced."

Seeing Zhang Jingmo's calm expression, Lu Guijiu sighed in his heart, and prayed silently that he would never be punished by his master like this in the future, otherwise he would go crazy sooner or later.

Zhang Jingmo didn't know what Lu Guijiu was thinking, and thought to himself: "I don't know what the sword Gong Jiguang forged for you looks like... well, in a few days, let's ask."
