There is a fairy tower in Baiyun's place

Those twinkling stars seem to be very close, you can pick them up with your hands, but they seem to be out of reach. I don't know what level of cultivation I have to reach before I can go there.

Looking at the starry sky, without knowing it, Baiyun Tower fell into a deep sleep, and fell asleep in a trance.

In a hazy dream, Baiyun Tower seemed to be back in childhood, playing in the courtyard, a white cloud from the sky suddenly fell into the courtyard, and a celestial elder fell down.

The cloud turned into a whisk and flew into the hands of the immortal. With a slight smile, he looked at the Baiyun Tower and said with a voiceless voice: "My little friend has a strange skeleton, so I wish to practice with me in the mountains."

The young Xiaoyunlou asked, "Are you a fairy?"

The fairy head waved his whisk, a white cloud appeared in the courtyard, and the fairy head stepped up.

The fairy head stretched out his hand to Xiaoyunlou and said: "Riding the clouds and riding the fog, you are a fairy who is happy and free. Come, get the head of the cloud, and follow me to practice and enter the avenue."

Xiaoyunlou was about to take a step, and suddenly asked strangely: "But the Taoist priest of Liuyun Temple has seen my roots, and said that my aptitude is minimal, and the way of cultivation is extremely difficult."

At this point, there seemed to be a warning sign in the consciousness, and the fairy, the white cloud, and the small courtyard all turned into spots of light and scattered.

Baiyun Tower broke the dream, woke up, and immediately opened the Celestial Eye to look around.

The night was dark, and everyone on the flying boat was still asleep. Suddenly, the Baiyun Building looked up and saw a nearly transparent object hanging three feet above the flying boat.

Chapter 48 Mirage Pearl

The strange object on the top of the head seemed to have two eyes, showing a faint blue light. With a slight shake, two balls of bubbles floated down towards the Baiyun Tower and the little fat man at the stern.

The little fat man beside him was sleeping soundly, but with a smile on his mouth, he seemed to be having a sweet dream, and he smacked his lips from time to time.

The two bubbles were getting closer and closer, Baiyunlou didn't think much about it, he pinched the tactic, and his consciousness was activated, the Dragon Scale Sword on the side flashed out, piercing the two bubbles with one sword, and the bubble burst in response.

After breaking through the bubbles, the dragon scale sword's aura remained undiminished, and it slashed three feet above the head with the penetrating sword energy.

There was a sound like tearing silk, and the strange thing was cut into two.

Amidst the sword qi, the strange object was cut off in an instant, and the body turned into clouds and dissipated, leaving behind two faint blue beads falling down.

Baiyunlou's imperial envoy turned the dragon scale sword, and slowly fell down with the two beads in his arms.

This noise woke up the three women in the bow of the ship, and they all came to check.

Seeing the Dragon Scale Sword coming down against the sky, Xia Zhaoyang asked in amazement: "Wow, Senior Brother Bai, you have mastered the skill of controlling the sword. What happened just now?"

Taking two crystal-clear glass-like beads from the Dragon Scale Sword, with a faint blue light inside, Baiyunlou handed one of them to Aunt Xia.

Then he said to everyone: "Just now, I noticed something abnormal in my sleep, and when I woke up, I saw a strange thing, spitting out air bubbles, which seemed to be able to take people into a fantasy world. In a hurry, I chopped it off with a sword. Aunt Xia, do you know this What?"

After taking the beads and looking at them, Aunt Xia said in amazement: "Yunlou is really lucky. This thing is called mirage beads, which are unique to mirages. The monsters killed must be mirages."

"What kind of monster is a mirage, can it enter people's dreams at will?" Bai Yunlou encountered a monster for the first time, it was very novel, and then he kicked the little fat man who was still dreaming.

The little fat man woke up in surprise, and after waking up, he casually shouted: "My roast chicken, my fine wine...".

Seeing all the brothers and sisters watching around him, he finally came to his senses, and said awkwardly: "Just now I had a beautiful dream, it was so real."

"An immortal came in a cloud and asked me to follow him to cultivate immortality. I was greedy for a moment and said that I wanted to eat a delicious meal before leaving. The immortal conjured up a table of delicacies, and after only a few bites, both the immortal and the delicacies disappeared. I don't see it, when I was looking around, I was pushed awake."

Hearing these words, Xia Zhaoyang laughed out loud, and then thought that there might be monsters around, so he immediately stopped talking, hid behind Senior Sister Dongfang, and kept looking around with his eyes.

Looking at the blue mirage beads fondly, Aunt Xia smiled and said: "Don't worry about Chaoyang, the flying boat has protection and a hidden magic circle, ordinary monsters can't find it and can't get close to it, only a special monster like the mirage can You will find the existence of the flying boat."

Hearing this, Xia Zhaoyang jumped out from behind Dongfang Ziyan and said, "Is the mirage powerful?"

Aunt Xia continued: "The mirage mainly has two supernatural powers, one is invisibility, and the other is dream-eating. After being invisible, only monks with a strong sense of consciousness can detect it. Yunlou happened to have practiced Celestial Eye, and this mirage has nowhere to go Hide away."

"The supernatural power of dream devouring is even more magical. The mirage will create an illusion to lure people into a dream. When the dream matures, the mirage will take back the dream and a ray of consciousness from the dreamer, and then devour it."

"Actually, even if the dream is swallowed, it won't do much harm to the dreamer. It's just that the dreamer will completely forget the dream."

"As for the ray of divine consciousness that was swallowed up, you may feel a little lack of energy, but it will recover within half a day."

After listening to the aunt's description, Xia Zhaoyang seemed to regain his courage, and said crisply: "So, this mirage is just like this, it only devours dreams, it seems that this mirage is useless."

Smiling slightly, Aunt Xia said softly, "Although this mirage is not powerful, according to ancient records, it will turn into a mirage dragon after cultivation and evolution. It will breathe out mirage air and turn into an illusion. Ordinary monks will also get lost in it."

"However, the mirage bead of this mirage is a sacred object that monks dream of. It is said that the mirage bead is the essence of the mirage's thousand-year cultivation."

"Refining the mirage energy contained in the mirage beads can enhance the spiritual consciousness of practitioners, especially beginner monks. Yunlou's spiritual consciousness is strong, which should be the strength of the clear mirage beads."

Aunt Xia gently pinched the mirage beads and continued: "Mirages are extremely rare, and they have invisibility powers, so there are very few mirage beads available to monks in ancient times, and they are almost extinct in the past 3000 years. I did not expect to see them today."

"Yunlou, you have to keep this mirage pearl, or refine it as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams." He said and handed the mirage pearl back to Baiyunlou.

Reaching out his hand to take the mirage bead that was emitting a faint blue light, Bai Yunlou said calmly: "I don't need this bead, you guys see who can use it, just use it."

Hearing that Baiyun Tower said it was useless, Aunt Xia thought about it. This nephew Bai's Tianyantong has been cultivated so powerfully, and his spiritual consciousness will never be much worse than that of a golden core stage monk, so she said: "Auntie, I am already a golden elixir. Alchemy realm, this bead is useless."

Dongfang Ziyan at the side said: "I don't need it either, the previous zither music enlightenment made me realize some supernatural powers, one of which is to use the zither sound to refine the divine consciousness, so I can refine the spiritual consciousness without this mirage bead. "

The little fat man was about to speak, but Bai Yunlou stretched out his hand to hold it down, looked up and said, "How about this, these two mirage beads, Feiyang and Junior Sister Chaoyang each have one, whoever makes your spiritual consciousness the weakest, this The first time I entered the desert sea, I didn't know what I would encounter, so I quickly refined it, so as not to be delayed when I got it."

Hearing the last sentence, Xia Chaoyang glared at Baiyunlou, pouted and said: "Who is holding back, wait until someday I realize some supernatural powers, let's see what senior brother has to say."

After speaking, he grabbed a mirage bead and took his aunt to help refine it.

Before the little fat man could speak, Baiyunlou stuffed the remaining mirage pearl into the little fat man's hand.

Seeing that the little fat man was still hesitant, Bai Yunlou said: "Feiyang, hurry up and refine it, and if you enter the desert, maybe you can help a lot, after all, you are the vein of the extreme earth, with a stronger spiritual sense, you can also use earth magic Much stronger."

Hearing what his senior brother said, the little fat man finally accepted it with peace of mind, and went to Aunt Xia to ask about the refining method, then sat cross-legged on the side, holding the mirage beads in his hand, and concentrated on refining.

After this incident happened, Baiyunlou didn't want to sleep, standing at the stern of the boat and looking towards the east, there was already a gleam of light in the sky, the night was about to pass, and the dawn was not far away.

Sensing that Junior Sister Dongfang came to her side, Baiyunlou turned around and asked, "Junior Sister Ziyan, just now I heard from Junior Sister that the sound of the qin can refine spiritual consciousness. Before Junior Sister Qin Yin enlightened the Tao, the senior brother's spiritual consciousness also improved. Realize that all dharmas in the world can enter the Tao if they are cultivated to the extreme."

Dongfang Ziyan nodded and said: "Senior brother's words are very true, I only realized it recently."

Chapter 49 Liangzhou City

Baiyunlou secretly glanced at Junior Sister Dongfang, not to say that he was moved, but just relieved.

Such a beautiful and refined woman with a clear mind is so lucky to be able to accompany her on the road of cultivation.

Thinking of this, Baiyun Tower felt at ease, took a step forward, stood at the stern of the boat, overlooking the vast land, with mountains and rivers winding, a ray of fiery red gradually dyed the eastern sky, and a red sun jumped out of the clouds.

Immediately a kind of pride filled my chest, since I have the opportunity to enter the cultivation, I should draw my sword and go forward, overcoming thorns and thorns, not asking ghosts and gods, but seeking my heart.

Looking at the back of Senior Brother Bai standing at the stern of the boat, Dongfang Ziyan noticed that her calm state of mind trembled slightly. The petals of the lotus flower visualized in the chaotic sea of ​​consciousness moved slightly, as if catching a trace of the charm of the Dao. angry.

It seems that Senior Brother Bai had a breakthrough in his state of mind, which resonated with Daoist, and he also got a lot of opportunities.

Dongfang Ziyan took a step forward and stood beside Baiyun Tower, looking at the scene in front of Senior Brother Bai, feeling the bursts of Dao Yun around her body, and the Dao Heart and Sword Intent harmonizing with it, in an instant, the Dao Rhyme around her body soared.

Xia Shigu who was practicing was refreshed, she woke up from the training, saw that there was nothing unusual on the flying boat, suddenly thought of something, and searched for the stern of the boat with all her heart.

I only felt two qi mechanisms at the stern of the boat soaring into the sky, one qi mechanism was as bright as the sun, and the other qi mechanism was slightly weaker, but contained a kind of tenacity.

Look at Xia Zhaoyang and the boys from the Nangong family who have finished refining the mirage energy in the mirage bead, and are sitting in meditation, entering the state of enlightenment in the Tao rhyme.

Aunt Xia couldn't help secretly praising that the disciples of this generation are extremely talented and have profound opportunities, and they no longer practice, and observe the changes in the energy mechanism in the Taoist rhyme.

After half a stick of incense, the four of them woke up from enlightenment one after another. Baiyunlou came back to his senses, only to feel that his sense of consciousness was abnormally clear, his consciousness had been greatly enhanced, and his toughness had also improved.

Can't help looking sideways at Junior Sister Dongfang, who is meeting Dongfang Ziyan's autumn-like eyes, the aura that inspired Dao seems to be still there, there seems to be a sense of sympathy between the two of them, they smiled at each other, turned around and looked back .

Fatty and Xia Chaoyang are still a little confused, their spiritual consciousness has grown several times in a short period of time, and they need to get used to it.

The little fat man woke up first, shook his head twice, and said in surprise: "It feels like I woke up all of a sudden, as if I was living in a dream before. By the way, the Chaoyang Chamber of Commerce, the development plan, seems to be able to do better."

After speaking, he took out the pen and paper, and went to the side to write and cross.

After a long while, Xia Chaoyang came back to his senses, Aunt Xia stepped forward and asked with concern: "Chaoyang, how do you feel?"

"It feels okay, but my forehead is slightly swollen. It seems that I have realized a magical power just now. Let me think about it..." After speaking, he held his forehead and recalled seriously.

Looking at Junior Sister Xia, Bai Yunlou couldn't help but twitch his mouth, this Junior Sister has good fortune, but she is a little too confused.

After a while, Xia Zhaoyang jumped up and said, "I thought of it, it turned out to be this supernatural power, haha, as expected, I am the second senior sister with high comprehension, Xiao Feiyang, what supernatural power did you realize?"

Turning around, I saw the little fat man writing furiously without even looking this way, so I couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.

"Junior Sister Chaoyang, what kind of supernatural powers have you comprehended, tell us and let's discuss it together." Bai Yunlou asked curiously.

Glancing at Baiyun Tower with satisfaction, Xia Chaoyang smiled and took out a leaf from the small cloth bag, cast a magic formula slightly, and tossed it casually, and the leaf flew steadily towards the little fat man.

The leaf circled around the little fat man's body twice, and then flew back to Xia Zhaoyang's hand. After taking the leaf back, Xia Zhaoyang said something triumphantly.

The fat man looked over in amazement. It turned out that what Senior Sister Xia said was exactly the same as what he had just written.

Xia Chaoyang's newly realized supernatural power is to attach a wisp of divine consciousness to a leaf or tree, and freely explore it within ten feet. It can be said that it was strengthened and mutated by Mu Ting's supernatural power before.

Xia Zhaoyang didn't sit still after he got new supernatural powers. After some experimentation, he found that if he wanted to attach divine consciousness, he had to have living wood plants, not like wooden stools, tables and chairs.

Although the leaves were picked off, there was still some vitality left. Although this vitality would gradually fade away, it was well preserved, and it would not be a problem to keep it for a few days.

While playing with the new supernatural power, Xia Zhaoyang suddenly exclaimed: "Wow, what a big snow mountain."

Xia Chaoyang received his magical powers and ran to the bow of the flying boat in a few steps. Several people also looked to the west one after another, and saw a tall snow mountain standing on top of the mountains.

The top of the peak is covered with snow, crystal clear, and white as jade. The mountain penetrates the clouds and goes straight into the sky, like a pillar reaching the sky.

Several tall mountains, like a huge dragon's ridge, finally converge into one mountain.

"This is Kunlun, the fairy mountain. It is said that it is hidden in the clouds all the year round. I don't want to see the whole picture today." Aunt Xia exclaimed.

"Xianshan Kunlun." Baiyunlou couldn't help but whispered, his consciousness trembling slightly, but thinking that there was something important to explore on this trip, he suppressed the idea of ​​going there and stood on the bow of the boat to admire the beauty of the fairy mountain.

Xia Shigu said: "It is said that there is a fairy cave in Kunlun Fairy Mountain. More than ten years ago, the head of the mountain came to explore this mountain for more than a month, but there was nothing to gain."

"After passing the Kunlun Xianshan Mountains, there is an endless sea of ​​sand."

Hearing that the endless sand sea was approaching, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although the scenery on the flying boat was magnificent, it was the first time floating in the sky for so long, and I missed the down-to-earth feeling.

After crossing the snow-capped mountains and out of the Kunlun Mountains, the snow water turns into streams and winds down, and some towns and villages are scattered along the river.

Going further west, crossing a large Gobi Desert, it was almost noon, and finally saw a city on the edge of the endless sand sea, Liangzhou City.

The flying boat stopped in mid-air, and everyone stood and watched. This is an isolated city with four walls, tall and majestic, guarding the people in the city.

The city wall on the west side is extraordinarily long. It was built along the edge of the sandy sea, extending for more than ten miles from the north to the south.

Outside the city wall on the west side is a vast sea of ​​sand. Apart from some barren beaches, there are many wheat fields and orchards inside the wall. It seems that the city wall of tens of miles not only protects the city, but also blocks the invasion of the sand sea. The isolated city has brought infinite vitality.

Aunt Xia found a remote place outside the city and landed the flying boat. The four people in Baiyunlou had already packed up and jumped off the flying boat one after another when the flying boat landed.

The four of them planned to rest for a day in Liangzhou City, and inquire about some market legends by the way, to see if they could find some useful clues.

Aunt Xia gave a few simple instructions, handed over a document for customs clearance and a jade talisman, and said: "The head of the mountain has prepared these two items for you, if you need anything, you can use this document to find the general soldier in Liangzhou City. "

Chapter 50 Searching for Clues

"If there is an emergency, you can hold the jade talisman in your palm and activate the magic circle, and I will feel it within a thousand miles." Aunt Xia said as she handed over the document and the jade talisman.

Baiyunlou took it over.

After saying hello to everyone, Aunt Xia said that she had other important things to do, so she turned around and jumped into the flying boat.

The flying boat soared into the sky, gradually disappeared, and turned into a stream of light that sank into the sky.

The four of them looked at each other and packed their luggage. Baiyunlou took the customs clearance document and led the three of them towards the gate of Liangzhou City.

The four of them walked along the ancient caravan road to the gate of Liangzhou city. Only when they got closer did they realize that the city wall of Liangzhou city was more than three feet high.

It was noon in June, but it was not very hot. The city gate was open, and there were several horse-repelling fences outside the city gate. Two columns of city guard soldiers were at the gate of the city, checking the caravans entering and leaving.

Without saying anything, Baiyun Tower handed over the customs clearance document, and the city guard sergeant took it and saw that it turned out to be a student from Xinlu Academy. After checking the seal and confirming that it was correct, he respectfully sent the four of them into the city gate.

He also enthusiastically said that the Shoucheng Commander's Mansion is next to the west gate of Liangzhou City, and he can ask the Commander-in-Chief for help in case of emergency.

The group of four were not in a hurry to find the General Military Mansion. It was already noon, so naturally they wanted to find a lively market and fill their stomachs first.

After some inquiring, the busiest market in Liangzhou City is in the West Market, so it happened to be on the way.

Outside the city is mostly barren sand and gravel, but unexpectedly, the city is full of prosperity, and there are even a few large golden wheat fields.

Xu is close to the desert sea, the wind and sand are too strong, the caravan of pedestrians on the road are all wrapped in turbans, only two eyes are exposed, the four people are very strange to see.

On the way, they came across a cloth shop, Xia Zhaoyang led the crowd in, each of them picked up a headscarf.

The first time I wrapped a headscarf, I was in a hurry, and the shopkeeper couldn't see it, so I came to help and give pointers, and then I learned how to wrap it airtight.

After leaving the cloth shop, Xia Chaoyang looked at this and that, he was so wrapped up that he almost didn't know each other, and he laughed.

Couldn't help knocking this junior sister Xia on the head, Baiyunlou said angrily: "Why are you laughing, junior sister, you still look like us."
