Chapter 692: Waves and Islands
The waves were raging from afar, and with the momentum of thunder, when they were only two or three feet away from the island, they forcibly stopped the charge, and only the roar ran over the island, like a crazy horse standing upright at the last moment before hitting people, and the iron hooves were still ready to step on at any time.
Luckily, the waves were a little more tamed than Crazy Horse's, and the anger faded away, and the waves subsided, and the sea returned to calm, until another wave emerged from afar.
The island is just a small rocky rock outcropping out of the water, no more than a hundred paces long and only a dozen paces wide, like a sinking ship after flipping.
Standing on it, people do have a sense of precarious panic.
The bald man stopped on the highest rock on the island and admired the wonder over and over again, knowing that the waves would disappear, but when it approached, he would still scream, and then he would be elated, "It's a pity that Artemisia can't see it!"
Not far from the bald man, Ouyang Li, a loose cultivator, and Liu Ding, a talisman master, also turned their heads to look at the waves from time to time, and their faces changed color every time.
A little farther away stood the Golem, and at its feet was a small circle of humans and demons ignoring each other, Black Phoenix, Hong Futian, Yin Bushen, An Xiangxing, and Yang Chuang, facing in all directions, thinking about their own thoughts, and occasionally casting a disdainful glance at a certain target.
At the end of the island, the closest place to the waves, Mu Xingqiu and Yang Qingyin stood side by side, waiting for Yi Shijun to give an explanation.
Yi Shijun had a sad look on his face, pacing back and forth in front of the two, and only stopped to take a few glances every time the waves came.
"In the past, the waves were not so big, and the constraints on spells were not so strong, and if you were able to pass through the bottom of the sea, you could avoid waves in the air if you were quick with your hands and eyes. Yi Shijun frowned, "It's good now, you can't fly, and you probably can't go to the bottom of the sea." ”
"The path you recognize is out of nowhere?" asked Yang Qingyin.
"It's not that the road is out of the way. It's that we bring too much burden. Yi Shijun pointed to the other side of the island, "A golem is troublesome enough, and there are also loose cultivators and talisman masters, it is really redundant to bring them over, it can't help anything, and it will affect our crossing of the sea." ”
"They were my friends, and they came with me of their own free will. Yang Qingyin said bluntly, Hong Futian, Ouyang Li, Liu Ding and the other three took the initiative to stop the state, Yang Qingyin and Mu Xingqiu did not refuse, "Don't you also take the three demon clans? They are even more burdensome." ”
Yi Shijun shook his head again and again. "The black phoenix was not brought by me, as for Yin Bushen, I can strangle him at any time, only An Xiangxing came with me, the time is almost right, I will swallow his soul before crossing the sea, just to add a little strength to me. ”
"Let's camp here first, wait a day, maybe the waves won't be so fierce all the time. Mu Xingqiu said.
"Then wait. Yi Shijun said indifferently. "But I don't think anything will change, the waves are not coming normally, either something happened to the Stopping State, or the Dao Sect has strengthened its defenses. I don't want to let humans and demons smuggle into the state from the sea. ”
"What does it have to do with Dao Tong?" Yang Qingyin asked confusedly, she didn't know anything yet.
Yi Shijun just laughed, walked towards the golem, and ordered Yin Bushen to set up a tent.
Yang Qingyin looked at Mu Xingqiu, who was silent. "What are you thinking? No, let's go in and let the others wait on the island. The state of stop is not big, and if the people from Yelin Town are really there, it should be easy to find. ”
Mu Xingqiu smiled, "I'm thinking, we haven't been alone for a long time. ”
For more than a month, they have been flying, taking occasional breaks, and not for a long time, and they have indeed not been alone.
Yang Qingyin felt that Mu Xingqiu's smile was a little weird, and said coldly: "That's nothing, I'm not in a hurry." ”
"I'm in a hurry. Mu Xingqiu likes Yang Qingyin's stern appearance, "It's tonight, it's still the time when the moon rises at its highest, the scenery here is good, and even the illusion doesn't have to be too complicated." ”
Yang Qingyin's face was slightly red, he didn't agree or refuse, he turned around to leave, and suddenly understood, "You plan ......to leave me on the island, right?"
Mu Xingqiu shushed at her, strode away, set up the tent with the others, and set up a circle of prohibitions, in case the waves really rushed over, so as not to be caught off guard.
Yang Qingyin secretly made up her mind that she would never let Mu Xingqiu throw herself on this small desert island, she hated waiting hard, the more dangerous it was, the more she couldn't stay out of it.
Mu Xingqiu had other ideas, first of all, he wanted to persuade Hong Futian and the others to stay, this step was relatively easy, the scattered cultivators and Fu Gong masters had no intention of becoming a burden, and they were willing to stay on the island and wait.
The next thing is to persuade the bald man, which is not easy, the bald man opened his eyes wide and kept gesturing with three strands of hair, "I'm just so big, you can stuff me anywhere, it's not in the way at all, really, Brother Xiaoqiu, take me, I can help." ”
Mu Xingqiu walked aside with the bald man in his hand and whispered to him: "I let you stay for a reason, you have to help me protect someone." ”
"Who are you protecting?" the bald man looked surprised, glanced at him, and said in a lower voice, "Is it the old lady?"
Mu Xingqiu nodded.
"Does she need my protection?" the bald man wondered.
"Yes, she has sword washing pond water on her, she must be coveted, no one dares to do it when I am here, and it is difficult to say when I am not there. She's alone, and the people around her aren't as reliable as you. ”
The bald man nodded immediately, "I understand...... Why don't you take my wife and me with you to stop in the state?"
"It's also because of the water in the sword washing pond, I don't want to attract too much attention in the state of stopping. ”
The bald man still didn't understand too much, and he reluctantly agreed after thinking for a long time, "Okay, I'll stay to protect the old lady and wash the sword pool water, and besides, I will never let Ouyang Li and Liu Ding's two guys get too close to the old lady." ”
Mu Xingqiu smiled and shook his head, "Don't leak the secret, I won't tell Yang Qingyin about this until the evening." ”
The bald man grinned, glad to be part of the secret, even if it only lasted one night.
For the rest of the time, Mu Xingqiu entered a state of contemplation in the tent, carefully reading the Mind Technique spell left to him by the Dragon Demon. There are more than a thousand spells, but there are not many that are really suitable for him, low-level spells occupy more than half, and there are some advanced spells, which require illusions above the ninth layer to cast, he can only look at them, but he can't learn them. There are also dozens of methods, although they are extremely helpful to the eighth layer of illusions, they need the support of top-level magic weapons and even Dao supreme treasures, and Mu Xingqiu can only sigh with admiration.
There are probably more than a hundred spells suitable for the eighth layer of illusions, and there are also some low-level spells with a wide range of uses that are also worth learning.
There was a method that particularly attracted Mu Xingqiu's attention because it was related to the Sword Washing Pond in Asan.
Mu Xingqiu once used the sword washing pool water to perform the mind illusion in the Battle Demon Mountain, and eliminated tens of thousands of ice kui in one fell swoop, and at that time he felt that the illusion and the sword washing pool water were specially matched, and in this spell called "Pearl Shadow Water Illusion", Mu Xingqiu finally understood the truth.
After all, the Mind Department is one of the eighteen departments of Taoism. Although it is inextricably linked to the magic of the demon race, the foundation is still the five elements. Most of the Dao system illusions belong to the water of the five elements, and among the nine great treasures, the sword washing pool is the most suitable for illusions, and the five elements illusions and mindfulness illusions are all like this.
The help of the sword washing pool water to the illusion is not just as simple as amplification and enhancement, the "Bead Shadow Water Illusion" details more wonderful uses, if Mu Xingqiu understands this trick in the Battle Demon Mountain, it will be easier to destroy Bing Kui.
The power of one thought, the hearts of all enemies. Mu Xingqiu didn't really touch the edge until this time.
Mu Xingqiu concentrated on studying, although he didn't wash the sword pool water in his hand, he still practiced according to the method dozens of times, but he never let the illusion leave.
Unconsciously. It was already dark at night, and Mu Xingqiu suddenly remembered that he had an important moonrise appointment, and hurriedly retracted his mind and walked out of the tent. I saw a cliff-like wave rushing in, and the iron-red full moon overhead was like a blood pearl jumping out of the sea.
The roar is still there. But it is no longer deafening.
The others were resting, only the golem stood there quietly, Mu Xingqiu had not read the information hidden in it, he walked to the other end of the island, and found that Yang Qingyin had not yet arrived, so he cast a spell to create an illusion.
The illusion was very simple, he kept the towering waves and the blood moon high in the sky, but turned the hard rock into a soft sandy beach with a few logs across it that could be sat on and leaned on.
"It looks like Zhaoshan. Yang Qingyin came, deliberately appearing calm and easy-going, but he was ready to refuse to stay on the island.
"A little more light would be more like. Mu Xingqiu created a soft shimmer, and this corner of the island is more like Zhaoshan Island in the South China Sea.
"You don't have to be ...... like this."
"Now that you're married, you should be serious. Mu Xingqiu adjusted some details, and was finally satisfied, and then walked up to Yang Qingyin and stared into her eyes.
Yang Qingyin did not flinch, if Gao Fuwei was still there, he would be heartbroken about this look-at-a-glance.
"I think there's a problem with our relationship. Mu Xingqiu said.
"Huh?" Yang Qingyin did not let his guard down.
"We are married, but our behavior is too much like a Taoist priest. ”
"What do you want?"
"I want to be a mortal tonight. ”
"How?"
"First of all, we must forget the identity of the Taoist priest, secondly, let the inner dan turn as slowly as possible, and leave all the magic weapons outside, and finally ...... We can talk about it then. ”
Yang Qingyin hummed lightly, wanting to see when Mu Xingqiu would turn to the topic.
Mu Xingqiu had a total of three treasure bags and two Qiankun bags, which contained various types of items, he untied them from his waist, took them out of his arms, and put them all on a stone on the edge of the illusion, Yang Qingyin also put a few of his bags on them, as well as a few fragmentary magic weapons, and finally the Laojun Demon Clutch that was stored separately.
Mu Xingqiu casually summoned the sword washing pool water in the palm of the devil's hand, "I have learned a new trick of Pearl-Shadow Water Illusion, let you see it." ”
Mu Xingqiu reshaped the illusion, and then returned the pool water to the palm of the devil's hand.
"It doesn't seem to have changed. Yang Qingyin glanced at it, and it was still the same as just now.
"Wait. ”
It was as if a mountain had fallen from the sky, and suddenly, the surrounding scenery had changed significantly, no longer Zhaoshan, but Pangshan Muma Valley, not far from the two of them was the small pond.
Yang Qingyin's heart warmed, and a smile appeared on his face.
Mu Xingqiu's expression was stern, "Only the illusion created by the sword washing pool water can block the prying eyes of the sword washing pool water." ”
"What did you say?" Yang Qingyin found that she was mistaken, Mu Xingqiu didn't just want her to stay, there were more important things to say.
"A qiē. Mu Xingqiu said that he finally found an opportunity to tell Yang Qingyin the truth he knew.
