Chapter 192: West and North of the City

Yin Buchen flew towards the Ancestor Tower in panic. Suddenly, he encountered an extremely powerful resistance and hurriedly landed into the tower. The monkeys lined up in a long line and followed behind, like a multi-legged centipede.

It is said that there is a unique universe in the Patriarch's Tower, which can display the list and images of Taoist priests who have been noted by gods and above in the past dynasties. Yin Buchen entered the tower several times and had never seen such things before. All he saw was mottled and old stone walls and stone stairs, but they were very clean and spotless. No matter what his feet stepped on outside, as long as he stepped into the tower, he would not even leave footprints.

There was no one on the first floor, and from time to time, the talisman pattern suddenly appeared and slowly disappeared, like the ripples seen by the angler on the river surface, thinking that it would be a big fish, but nine times were disappointed. When the water surface returned to calm, the big fish did not even show its shadow.

The talismans in the tower may appear anywhere, walls, steps, ground, or even in the air, like steaming water vapor, like a divine dragon with no head, swaying and disappearing into the air.

Yin Buchen walked with awe and looked at the wonders in the tower. He thought that Mu Xingqiu would give up the talisman art after retrieving his memory, but he did not expect to carry forward the talismans instead. The magnificent light reveal made him frightened. He always wanted to give up his oath and fell to the feet of Taoist Zun again.

The monkeys leaned tighter, reached out and grabbed the shoulders of their companions in front, and the one in front held Yin Buchen's clothes tightly with both hands.

Yin Bushe held back and reminded himself over and over again: Talismans are very powerful, but they have nothing to do with him. The Demon Lord’s Dharma is a lesson. He learned it through hard work, but he ended up being cheaper than Yi Shijun. So don’t force things that are not your own. Since you don’t have to force, you don’t need to envy, and you can be equal to any strong person without envy.

There was no one on the second floor, until the third floor, Yin Buchen saw the talisman writer.

Mu Xingqiu stood there motionless. He pressed the wall with his hands, and ten fingers were vaguely glowing. His way of writing talismans was different from others, and he did not use the pen to move. In a moment of thought, a talisman had been written. Behind him, Yang Qingyin acted as the protector, surrounded by seven or eight magical instruments, incense burner smoke, copper bells squirting slightly, copper seals trembled, and swords buzzing... She slapped Mu Xingqiu's back regularly.

Yin Buchen became more awe. He really wanted to give up the idea of ​​equality, so he endured it and took a deep breath, coughed twice, and finally kept his legs upright, summoned a wooden box, held it in both hands, and whispered: "King Ling, I will bring the pearls of the sea."

The monkeys squeaked and held boxes of all sizes in their hands.

"The rest of the things are all there," Yin Buchen added.

Mu Xingqiu didn't move. Yang Qingyin turned around and smiled and said, "Thank you."

Yin Bushen's waist was involuntarily about to bend down. After realizing it, he hurriedly stood up and said casually: "You're welcome. Congratulations to the Spirit King, the Holy Mother Wanzi has found Mu Dong'er."

Yang Qingyin nodded, saying that she had learned about this through other beast masters.

She waved her hand and a small alchemy furnace appeared beside her. The pearls in Yin Buchen's hand were flying into the furnace one after another.

"Is this not extinguishing the furnace?" Yin Buchen said in surprise.

"Yes." The furnace is ever-changing and can melt iron or refine elixirs.

Yin Buchen first admired the Ling King. Then he felt that the Taoist Qin who gave the treasure was even more admirable. In the end, he gave all his respect to Mu Xingqiu, "The talisman ink refined with the Fushou Fukuo must be very powerful. Don't you have to be afraid of Kun Duan this time, right?"

Mu Xingqiu has always used his blood as ink, which has good results, but there is still room for improvement. Yin Buchen went out to find ingredients everywhere. The beast masters in the Holy Mother of Wanzi Army, Xin Youtao and others provided most of them, and some of them were looking for farther and remote places.

"Try it, let's talk about it." Yang Qingyin walked slowly around the furnace. She is a Taoist priest of Hongluke and has learned the method of monitoring the furnace since she was a child. She has a rare opportunity to cast spells on the furnace.

"I have passed the sword technique to Mu Lie, and he has learned it very quickly." Yin Buchen glanced at Mu Xingqiu's back, "Is it meaningful to do this? Mu Lie is just a mortal. Of course, he is a relative of the Mu family, but it has been several generations."

Yang Qingyin smiled and said, "To be honest, I don't understand either." She also glanced at Mu Xingqiu, "He said Mu Lie gave him great confidence."

"Oh, Mu Lie challenged Zuo Liuying. Mu Xingqiu wanted to compete with Kun Dun. Both of them knew it was impossible." Yin Buchen nodded and shook his head again, "It's a pity that there are not many people in Mu Xingqiu. Shen Jixian from Pang Shan came and actually wanted to worship Taoist Qin as the 39th generation ancestor. Is it strange to King Ling said it was strange?"

Yang Qingyin kept his pace and occasionally cast spells at the non-extinguishing furnace. "It's nothing strange. If Qin Lingshuang is willing to accept the position of ancestor, it is the luck of the Taoists."

Yin Buchen was surprised, "Master Qin is so powerful? Then... I will say goodbye first. If there is anything to do with the Spirit King, just let the Black Phoenix call me."

Yin Buchen hurried out of the tower with the monkey, flew to a city tower, and looked at the big light mirror in the west of the city. There was a restriction in isolation, and he could not see anything. "Can Taoist Qin be more powerful than Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying? Should I say hello? No, I can't go. No, no matter how powerful she is, she is still a Taoist priest. Maybe she will really become the 39th generation of ancestors. What fun should I go to join in?"

The monkey was squeaking again, and Yin Buchen turned his head and said, "Why is the Spirit King so in such a good mood? It has nothing to do with strength, nor does it have to do with the materials we brought back. Alas, there are gains and losses. No wonder the Taoist priests have to overcome disasters in their practice and abandon their desires. But everyone's pursuits have been different from the beginning, right? For example, that stupid boy Mu Lie is not enthusiastic about magic and gold, silver and jewelry, but when he sees sword skills, he is not reserved at all. Is this stupid or smart?"

The monkeys nodded or shook their heads, all of them showed a contemplative look, and the level of Yin Buchen seemed to have risen.

The level rises, but the curiosity will not weaken. In the next few days, Yin Buchen often looked west of the city. Every day, new Taoist priests came from all directions and headed straight for Xizhao Lake. Five days later, the ban around the Great Light Mirror disappeared, and dozens of large and small buildings appeared on the lake, and more than a hundred Taoist priests were entering and leaving.

Yin Buchen was really surprised. He turned around and looked at the Patriarch Tower. Although it flashed frequently with the blessing of the talisman, it was indeed a little shabby compared to the Great Light Mirror.

Soon, Yin Buchen had to go to the country of Sacrifice to find a few demon bones. This was a long time-consuming task, and it took more than ten days to go back and forth. During this period, he also fought with a big monster. This demon was responsible for the Virgin of Ten Thousand Sons. He clearly agreed to hand over one of the demon bones in his hand, but he regretted it when the matter was about to come. He wanted to stay and protect himself.

Yin Buchen took over the demon bones and was in a good mood. Without the Demon Lord's Dharma or the help of the strong, he defeated a big monster with his own ability. Of course, there were also the Earth Monkeys, which seemed very weak, but were very helpful for casting spells. Their squeaking sounds could also disturb the other party's mind.

A dozen days later, outside Duanliu City changed its appearance again. There was a large area of ​​houses in the west of the city. The large bright mirror became more and more towering, like a crystal mountain with twinkling light. Not only Taoist priests came to join the new ancestor, but also casual cultivators.

There is also a building north of Duanliu City. In the middle is a bell like a mountain. The garrisons have complex components, including Taoist priests, casual cultivators, and magicians. They always look at the big bright mirror in the west of the city, and don’t care much about the ancestor tower in the east of the city.

Yin Buchen had to go around the south to meet Mu Yang and the others. There was no change in the ancestor's tower. Mu Xingqiu's talisman had already been written to the fourth level, and it was still far from completing it all.

"Is the Demon-Suppressing Bell standing in the north of the city?" Yin Buchen asked after handing over the demon bones.

"That's right." Yang Qingyin was more focused than before, and applied the refined pills on the palm of her hand. Then she slapped Mu Xingqiu's back with her palm, which not only improved the effect of blood ink, but also saved his life.

"Has Zuo Liuying arrived?"

"Not yet, it's said it's coming soon."

Yin Buchen took the monkeys to say goodbye. More than three months before the seventh day of the seventh month, he began to feel the strong fighting atmosphere.

Mu Lie was practicing the Five Elements Sword Technique at the base of the city wall. He swung his sword with one knife, as if he was fighting an invisible enemy.

Yin Buchen flew over and sneered: "Boy, why didn't you challenge Zuo Liuying?"

"I've been there. He's not here." Mu Lie said in a muffled voice, not stopping.

"Ah? Then how did you come back alive?" Yin Buchen asked in surprise. Zuo Liuying's subordinates never had a chance to talk to each other.

"I'll go find Zuo Liuying, they said he won't arrive in a few days, and then I'll come back, that's that simple." Mu Lie finally stopped, his face flushed.

Someone must have protected him secretly. Yin Buchen or pointed it out, turned his head to the monkeys and said, "Look at this relative, who has been with him for several generations, and my father has not treated me so well."

"What did you say?"

"Practice your sword skills, maybe you can blink twice in front of Zuo Liuying."

Yin Buchen flew to the city tower, looked at the demon-suppressing bell in the north of the city for a while, and looked at the big bright mirror in the west of the city, and was very puzzled: "It's time to fight so close."

"You look close, but they feel very far away." A voice said.

Yin Buchen first raised his head, then lowered his head, "Hey, Feifei, when did you come?"

"Yesterday." Feifei looked into the sky, and a large group of white clouds slowly floated, with his Xuanwu destroying the world hidden inside.

"Tell me about the situation here, you must know a lot." Yin Buchen was a little panicked and a little excited.

"The Taoist priests are divided into two factions, one supports Zuo Liuying, and the other is headed by Qin Lingshuang, and the former has a more dominant position."

"Didn't the Taoist priests in Hongshan want to let Taoist priest Qin be the ancestor?"

"She refused, saying that she had to wait until the 38th generation of Kunchun ancestor died before she could elect a new ancestor."

"It's too rigid."

"A month later, Qin Lingshuang and Zuo Liuying will fight here."

"Ah, what are they fighting? Are they fighting for the Nascent Soul?"

"Not only that, I don't know much about the more reasons. It is said that this battle is inevitable."

Yin Buchen turned around and looked at the Patriarch's Tower, "The time is finally coming. I have nothing to ask for. I just want to see the result, is it death or life? Or how did I die."

Yin Buchen sighed, "Why are Mu Xingqiu and Lingwang busy writing talismans? Only this little time can be used to do something else. The Patriarch Tower... cannot compete with the Great Light Mirror and the Demon-Suppressing Bell."

It is difficult for Yin Buchen to maintain confidence in Mu Xingqiu anymore.
