Five Immortals Gate

As the night grew darker, Li Yan was still sitting in front of the window. He repeatedly thought about the murderer's method of committing the crime. He also filtered through his mind all the people present during the day and everything they said, but he still thought about it. There are several key points that cannot be clarified.

It's not that Li Yan is keen on other people's affairs, but he has some admiration for the killing method. This is exactly what he has always expected to use. Up to a certain level, he never wants to fight with others head-on. He would only use it under certain circumstances, such as when his ability is too much stronger than that of his opponent, or when he needs to boost morale in a multi-person battle. Li Yan prefers to kill people invisible and defeat the enemy with cleverness, so he is very interested in today's matter, which is as important to him as cultivation.

While Li Yanzheng was thinking, his eyes suddenly flashed, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Someone is out again." Although the protective array restriction in the room was not activated, his consciousness spread out to cover the courtyard. He knew that there were formations in some places outside the courtyard, so his spiritual consciousness did not leave the courtyard. Although he did not know whether Xuanqing Temple had all the formations activated, he did not want his spiritual consciousness to trigger the restrictions on it after accidentally touching it. , being discovered will cause trouble.

The hunchbacked old man in Li Yan's consciousness turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared from the room. The next moment, he appeared under the big tree in the courtyard. His figure was extremely blurry. Under the moonlight, he almost merged with the big tree behind him. In one body, the hunchbacked old man first glanced at Li Yan's room with a faint ray of consciousness. Li Yan was sitting in the room with an uneasy face, looking like he was deep in thought, but that wisp of consciousness was in the room. The moment he entered Li Yan's room, he immediately paused.

The hunchbacked old man was also stunned. He did not expect that no protective formations were activated in Li Yan's room. This was like a transparent person in the consciousness of the immortal cultivator. Seeing Li Yan's contemplative look, the hunchbacked old man couldn't help but feel a little contemptuous in his heart: "At first, I thought I had met a master, but I didn't expect that he was such an idiot. I thought this boy must be a disciple of some major sect who ran out to practice privately, and there was no one around him. An elder followed, so reckless and unprepared. Now that something happened, he obviously regretted it. Maybe he had some magic weapon given by the elder to protect himself and save his life, so the aura fluctuations seemed very mysterious. As for knowing the young master. There are many ancient books in the sect about what I mentioned, and it is normal to have fragmentary records occasionally. "

Thinking of this, he withdrew his consciousness. The next moment, with a solemn expression, he carefully explored the two rooms on the other side where the two men in black robes lived.

What the hunchbacked old man didn't know was that his every move was enveloped by Li Yan's consciousness. Li Yan couldn't help but smile softly when he saw that the hunchbacked old man had withdrawn his consciousness and focused his energy on the other two rooms in the courtyard. He didn't care about him. When he raised his head, he saw Qin Chengyi picked up the wine pot in the window diagonally opposite the lotus pond. After taking a sip, when he put down the wine bottle, the other party happened to see Li Yan looking up. Across the lotus pond, he actually raised the wine bottle in his hand to Li Yan. He just seemed to be thinking about something, absent-mindedly, and raised his arms. He paused in the air.

Li Yan nodded distantly when he saw this. But at this moment, Li Yan's expression changed, and a scream suddenly sounded out. This scream seemed to cut through the sky in the silent night sky.

\u003c/di\u003e

It rang out in all directions, making people feel a bit creepy in the middle of the night. What changed Li Yan's face was not the sadness of the scream, but the fact that the scream did not come from the courtyard where his consciousness was shrouded, but from the courtyard next door.

Li Yan's consciousness spread instantly. Just when his consciousness came out of the courtyard wall, he felt that a figure had disappeared into the distance. Li Yan hesitated for a moment, but still did not continue to follow his consciousness. In his consciousness, The man was obviously very familiar with this place, and his route was strange. He was obviously avoiding something. Li Yan was still wary of the formation here.

The screams were extremely harsh at night. The hunchbacked old man under the tree had just reached one of the rooms where the black-robed man lived. Although there was a protective formation in the room, he tried to take a look without disturbing the other person. Whether he could detect something about the other party with his own magic power, the sudden scream scared him so much that he almost lost his mind. His consciousness almost hit the formation directly. Cold sweat oozed from his body, and he was caught in a flash. He walked towards the place where the scream came from, and went directly to the outside of the house where he and his young master lived, and entered the room in a flash.

After the young man in purple shirt in the room screamed, his expression also changed. As soon as he stood up, he felt a cold wind in front of him, his eyes blurred, and a figure was standing in front of him.

"What's going on, Uncle Sang?" The purple-shirted young man's face tightened. When he saw who was coming, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked quickly.

"I don't know, the scream came from the courtyard next to it, and it almost exposed me." Uncle Sang replied, and then continued, "Fortunately, my spiritual detection was under control in time, and those two people must not have noticed it. Now we Go out and take a look, there is such a movement, and staying in the room like this will arouse suspicion. "

The young man in purple shirt was worried and asked, "What happened again?" In doubt, he agreed with the hunchbacked old man's words. The hunchbacked old man didn't answer, but turned around and walked out of the room again. How did he know what happened.

When the young man in purple shirt opened the door, he saw Li Yan walking into the courtyard hesitantly. When he saw the young man in purple shirt and the old man with a hunchback coming out, Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief. These expressions fell into the eyes of the two of them. I could see Li Yan's worry.

The hunchbacked old man said to himself, "I still see less wind and waves, and I am very afraid."

The young man in purple shirt raised his hand to Li Yanyi and said, "Fellow Taoist, does he know what happened?"

Li Yan hurriedly returned the greeting and said nervously in confusion, "I don't know. I was thinking about something in the room when I suddenly heard someone calling and came out. The sound seemed to come from the courtyard next door."

The young man in purple clothes nodded when he heard the words. He also heard the voice coming from next door. He looked around, but he didn't see the two men in black robes. He couldn't help but glance at the hunchbacked old man. The hunchbacked old man shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know.

Although the young man in purple robes was surprised that this sound had been heard for a while, even if there was a formation to block the sound, with the vigilance of the monks, the two men in black robes should have known it for a long time.

The hunchbacked old man and the purple-robed young man looked at each other, and their spiritual consciousness was quietly released. After a moment, both of them withdrew their spiritual consciousness. No one was found in their spiritual consciousness. This was because they were also worried about the formation here and did not dare to use it. The spiritual consciousness was placed too far, only slightly out of the courtyard.

At this time, there were many piercing sounds in the air, far or near. After Li Yan and the three people in the courtyard looked at each other, they also walked towards the courtyard door.

At this moment, the two men in black robes were even more angry. After they left the courtyard early, they thought about it. I wanted to try first whether the magic weapon in my hand was effective in breaking the Xuanqing Observation Formation. If it was confirmed that it could, I would go back and go. Then I left smoothly, but just after leaving the courtyard for more than 200 feet, there was a loud voice behind me. The two of them secretly screamed with fearful and shrill screams.

Although they didn't know what happened, the Taoist temple would soon be filled with monks. The two of them were so anxious that they didn't even dare to release their consciousness. They hurriedly spread out their body skills and flew back quickly, but just as they were still away from the courtyard where they lived, they When he was five or six feet away, he suddenly heard a loud shout, "You thief, don't try to run away." As he spoke, seven or eight figures were shooting at the two of them, and in the distance there were sounds of piercing the air approaching from all directions.

The faces of the two men in black robes changed greatly, and their figures slowed down. After a while, they immediately stopped and stood directly on the spot. Their faces gradually returned to calmness, but their hearts were frightened and angry, and they knew something was wrong. At this time, But he couldn't move, otherwise there would be a big war immediately.

Just as they stopped, the seven or eight figures also shot forward and landed directly in front of the two of them. It was Kong Nantai and several disciples. At this time, Kong Nantai's face showed a hint of chill, After what happened during the day, the head brother arranged to continue on duty tonight. But just when he patrolled not far from here, he heard the screams here. His expression changed and he rushed here with all his strength. As he approached the place where the screams occurred, two figures appeared in his consciousness and passed quickly in the night. He immediately shouted, and the two figures stopped immediately.

It’s not that Kong Nantai’s spiritual consciousness has a small coverage area. He is a foundation-building monk, and hundreds of miles are not a problem. It’s because after the formation in Xuanqing Temple was activated, many places have isolated his spiritual consciousness. This is not only for the enemy. , the same is true for the Taoist priest Xuanqingguan.

After Kong Nantai saw the two people under the moon clearly, he couldn't help but said in a cold voice, "Two fellow Taoists, where do you want to go this late at night?" As he spoke, he stared at the two men in black robes, but suddenly raised a hand. , waved forward, and two disciples immediately appeared behind him and shot directly at the place where the screams were coming.

When the two men in black robes saw Kong Nantai asking questions, although they complained in their hearts, they had no choice but to answer bravely. The older man in black robes held up his hands and said, "It turns out to be fellow Taoist Kong. My two brothers were depressed by what happened during the day. He wanted to come out and walk along the lotus pond to relieve his stuffy air, but as soon as he walked about a hundred feet away, he heard a voice behind him and immediately rushed to this place to see what happened.

\u003c/di\u003e

Before we got there, we met fellow Daoist Kong. "

Just as the man in black robe was talking, one of the two former disciples rushed back in a hurry, shouting loudly, "Uncle Kong, something has happened. Uncle Song has been killed."

Although everyone here had been badly prepared, after hearing the disciple shouting, their hearts were still tight, especially the two men in black robes whose scalps were numb, and at this moment, the sky was broken in all directions. The sound was approaching, like meteors streaking across the dark night. Taoist Gong, Hall Master Ji and three other foundation-building monks from the Taoist temple had heard the sound and rushed over. They heard the disciple's cry in the air.

At this time, Li Yan and the others had just stepped out of the courtyard gate and heard the sound. Looking at the roaring light not far away and the two groups of people confronting each other nearby, they couldn't help but stop at the courtyard gate. The young man in purple shirt and the old man with a hunchback looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes.

The young man in purple shirt directly sent a message: "Uncle Sang, those two went out to kill someone?"

The hunchbacked old man looked at the place where the black-robed man was standing, and then at the little Taoist priest who ran out shouting. The two black-robed men were only about four feet away from the door of the next door. No matter how you looked at them, they looked like they had just come out from inside.

When the two men in black robes heard this, they groaned in their hearts. Although they were quite confident in their own cultivation, they looked at the several sharp auras coming, especially the leader of the palace Taoist, who was already close to the realm of golden elixir. I don't even dare to make mistakes.

As he spoke, the Taoist priest came with overwhelming anger. He looked at the two men in black robes in front of him. His face was as dark as water, and murderous intent was already surging in his eyes, as if he could take action at the next moment.

Behind him, the other monks in Xuanqing Temple were also full of murderous intent. Although they didn't know what the scene was like, they could clearly hear the disciple's shouts just now.

After glancing at Hall Master Ji behind him, the Taoist Palace Master suppressed his murderous intent and ignored the two men in black robes. Instead, he walked directly into the courtyard and said coldly, "Leave ten disciples to guard the door. The rest of the disciples are here." Get back here."

Of course, Hall Master Ji understood the meaning in the eyes of the head brother. At this moment, he first wanted to find out the cause of the matter. He looked at the two men in black robes, and then said word by word, "Four junior brothers, please wait here. Senior Brother Head and I look at Junior Brother Song." He stared at the man in black robes, but what he said was to the three junior brothers and junior sisters behind him. After that, he walked straight into the courtyard, leaving Kong Nantai and the others behind. The three foundation-building monks tightly surrounded the two men in black robes.

Li Yan and the others in the distance witnessed all this. Seeing that the Taoist priest and Hall Master Ji had entered the courtyard, the hunchbacked old man couldn't help but sigh and said, "Master, let's go there too."

The young man in purple shirt nodded when he heard this, turned his head to Li Yan and said, "Fellow Taoist, would you like to go over and see what happened?"

Li Yan still had a hint of fear on his face. After hearing what the young man in purple shirt said, his face turned bitter and he said, "Even if you don't go there, they will come to you after a while. This place is really evil."
