Chapter 615: The Origin of Mu Laozu, the Former Leader of Dao Sect
After Mu Shu landed on the ground, Mu Qi thought to himself, "Mu Shu was poisoned by the punch and has no ability to use it. She jumped straight down and it was fine. If I jumped down, I would be fine."
Immediately, he jumped lightly and jumped straight into the hole. The hole was pitch black. As he fell, the gust of wind slashed his face, and his hair was flying. It was obvious to the naked eye that the hole was not deep, but it was Didn't land for a long time.
Mu Qi is not a stupid person. He knows that there is another way to this pit. If he doesn't deal with it, he may fall to his death! His heart was tense, and when he was about to mobilize his spiritual energy to control the air, a gust of breeze suddenly blew gently from bottom to top, turning into an invisible force to hold him up, making his body as light as a feather. Only then did Mu Qi understand why Mu Shu was fine. It turns out that this breeze is also supporting me.
Mu Qi thought to himself: "Although it is a trivial matter, this person is willing to help me. After all, I have no big grudges with him. I think this person has an open-minded personality and is a person who can be deeply friends with. Alas, that's all. I Mu Qi has a strong heart." There is heaven and earth, how can we stick to hatred and grudges, let’s just let it go if we were unhappy before.”
He felt this way not because of a sudden change overnight, but because he had been with Li Changxiao for a long time. Seeing that he was commendable in his conduct as a person and in life, and that he had his own style, he had already secretly admired him.
Pointing his toes to the ground, Mu Qi stood firm, looked around, and saw Li Changxiao and Mu Shu beside him. He bowed his hands to Li Changxiao and thanked him. Li Changxiao smiled and waved his hand, saying that you are not welcome.
It was dark all around, not a dull darkness. The three of them were all monks, so night vision was not difficult. But here, even if he concentrated his concentration, You could only see about three feet in front of him, and beyond that was pitch black, like a black curtain that tightly wrapped around him, blocking his vision.
Mu Shu lay on the ground, dusted off the dust, stared at the lines on the ground, sweating profusely, and said: "It's so dangerous. The name of this cave is Ya Wan Zhang. It is something similar to a fortune-tightening device. There are several deep formations engraved on the bottom. They are forbidden spirit, aggravated, and other large formations. Fortunately, the formation is ineffective, otherwise we will be out of reach and we will fall to death."
Mu Qi was also frightened after hearing this. It seemed that there were still many difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead. He raised his head and looked down the hole. Using naked eyes or magic to detect it, the hole was not really deep, but once he jumped into it, he felt like he had fallen into a bottomless cliff. When the spiritual energy was not exhausted, , the monks can resist in the air, but there is a large formation carved on the bottom of the cave. If the formation operates normally, most of the intruders will be smashed to pieces.
Fortunately, the formation here had completely lost its effectiveness five hundred years ago. The three of them gathered their emotions, and then explored the depths together. Along the way, they saw many formation patterns, and all of them were extremely advanced formations. It can be seen that this place is heavily fortified, which is staggering. In its heyday, there were no more than ten people who could force their way into this place.
After passing through several narrow passages, I saw a vine hanging on the wall. Hanging on the vine were gourds of various colors, emitting a unique halo. I was overjoyed. This is where the Dao Fruit is. Mu Mansion has been established for countless years, and countless Taoist fruits have been stolen. Some are good and some are bad, so it is impossible to generalize them all.
"This vine is the Celestial Vine. The ancestor actually used this vine to preserve the Dao Fruit. It's really a wonderful idea." Mu Shu said in a daze. She recalled the tasks assigned by the Mu Mansion in the old days. One of the tasks was to find the Celestial Vine.
This vine grows in the sky and can be called a "divine object". If it is forged into a magical weapon, it has endless magical uses. It is also an extremely rare thing. Throughout history, the sky vine has appeared only a handful of times. Every time it appears, there are many historical records. It is so exciting that strong people from all sides compete for it.
Mu Shu and other Mu Mansion disciples were lucky enough to participate once. That time, the Sky Ivy came from the edge of the Kunlun world and hung down from the sky. It was about ten thousand feet long and was coveted by countless strong men, even among the ten most ferocious men in the world. One, also favor this vine.
At that time, the human race fought together and defeated one of the ten evil spirits of the ancient world. However, the ten evil men were too powerful. They killed several powerful men and cut off more than a thousand feet of celestial vines. They escaped completely. This was really a great shame for the human race. .
The day after tomorrow, there were several battles for Ivy, and many forces gained something. Among them, Mu Mansion obtained more than a hundred feet in length. After it was handed over to Mu Mansion, its trace was never found again. Mu Shu clapped her hands, she should have thought of this. The Celestial Vine is so precious. After going through so much trouble to get it back, how can we do nothing.
This was the last time Tian Qingteng appeared. Mu Shu told everyone that maybe she knew the identity of Patriarch Mu before he established Mu Mansion. Mu Shu added: "Throughout history, Celestial Vine only appeared twelve times, five times in ancient times, and seven times in its heyday. Mu Mansion was founded very early, before the heyday."
"Old Ancestor Mu's act of stealing Taoism has quietly begun since the establishment of Mu Mansion. Therefore, long before this, the Old Mu clan had the Celestial Vine to store and nourish the Dao Fruit of others. One of the contenders for Ivy must be Patriarch Mu’s true form.”
Mu Shu is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, not only for giving advice and popularizing knowledge. If she has a good heart, there will probably be many people who are willing to go with her. You can avoid many dangers in time, and you can also understand the key points in advance. Li Changxiao and Mu Qi are also smart people, but their intelligence is different. Li Changxiao's smartness is above all about survival and self-preservation. It is tempered step by step through years of weak experience. Therefore, if Mu Shu wants to trap him, it will be difficult. Instead, Li Changxiao will counterattack, and he will pay a heavy price. Mu Qi's intelligence lies in studying and responding to enemies, as well as in chess skills. He is a little dull in many places, but he is still a rare smart person.
Mu Shu recalled the historical data and added: "The first three times when the Celestial Vine appeared, it was too far away. Even though Old Ancestor Mu might not have even been born at that time, the fourth time the Celestial Vine appeared, it was cut off by the ferocious beasts of the prehistoric times, and the human race was half an inch away. So... Patriarch Mu must be the fifth contender, or have a close relationship with the fifth contender."
Mu Shu added another inference, locking onto the ancestor's true self step by step, "If the fifth contenders are divided by factions, there are probably more than a hundred forces, but the final beneficiaries are only seven or eight people, namely Zhang Kuiyi, the leader of the Dao Sect at that time, Chi Qian of the Xue Sect, Wan Ji Buddha of Baixiang Temple, and Liu Qiyi of the Wu Sect."
"I infer... Ancestor Mu must have a very deep connection with these four people." Mu Shu murmured. In fact, the beneficiaries of that competition were not only these four people, but also many powerful people who won one zhang or half a zhang. It's just that Mu Shu ruled it out first and felt that the possibility was not high.
Li Changxiao pinched his chin, walked to the edge of the Tianqing vine, and gently touched it with his fingers. It felt soft and slightly cool, and it still retained great activity. This Tianqing vine should be alive.
He said: "Ancestor Mu should have a close relationship with Zhang Kuiyi, right?"
"Yes, I infer that Ancestor Mu is Zhang Kuiyi's disciple." Mu Shu asserted, making a shocking statement.
