Chapter 3731
"Hehe, this is indeed interesting!" Xiao Hua laughed heartily as he had a plan in mind.
However, just as he was about to open his mouth to spit out the flying sword, his heart skipped a beat. Several soul threads fell from his glabella and pierced the worms. Things went so smoothly that it exceeded Xiao Hua's expectations. Against the soul threads, the worms did not put up any resistance at all and could not even detect them.
As soon as the soul threads pierced through, the worms strangely disappeared without leaving a trace.
"Good …" Xiao Hua clapped his hands and laughed in the face of the worms that were almost unstoppable by the Dao Sect's divine ability. "As the saying goes, 'Skills don't weigh down the body'. This saying is too true."
With that said, Xiao Hua glanced at the Dao Sect disciples beside him who were already trembling abnormally. At that moment, even Xue Ping and Fu Zhiwen, who were extremely confident in Xiao Hua, turned pale. Fu Zhiwen's body flashed with array talismans as he prepared to shield Xiao Hua from the front.
"Let's go …" Xiao Hua waved his hand and said very calmly, "Xue Ping, you and the other Dao Sect disciples follow behind me. Fu Zhiwen, activate the array talismans and follow behind."
"Yes, I understand!" Seeing how calm Xiao Hua was, how could Fu Zhiwen not know that Xiao Hua already had a way to deal with it?
With a response, the inscriptions around him flowed and various array talismans began to form an inscription armor around him.
With that said, Xiao Hua turned around and flew back. At that moment, he did not fly very fast, as though he was taking a leisurely stroll. However, what surprised Xue Ping behind him was that he did not see Xiao Hua use any divine ability. There was no brilliance, no Dharmic power fluctuation, no spell art, and not even a movement of his hand. Although the fog within a hundred feet around them had hundreds of beast heads that were roaring madly and pouncing at them, it was as though a breeze had blown past. The fog was like the melancholy in one's chest that was swept away in an instant. There was no trace of it as it disappeared into thin air just like that!
Xue Ping was ecstatic. He clenched his fists tightly and looked at the thin and tall cultivator in front of him with incomparable reverence!
This was truly unfathomable!
Exalted Xun Kong, Zhai Xingzi, Zhang Daoran, they were nothing to this seemingly ordinary cultivator!
"Sigh, what a pity!"
Just as Xue Ping was prostrating himself in worship, he suddenly felt a sense of regret. He turned his head slightly to look at Fu Zhiwen. "Why did I … have thoughts of probing that day?
If I can meet Zhenren Xiao for the first time and give him a good impression, won't I also be able to become his disciple? "
"It's just that … the Daoist Xiao of that day, he really wasn't Daoist Xiao.
He … He looks like that … How could he possibly be a senior of our Dao Sect? "
"But … how could Fu Zhiwen have such an opportunity?
According to Fu Zhiwen, he met Daoist Master Xiao in the Bronze Pillar State, which was not long after me!
What did this mean?
I'm afraid I don't have such an opportunity. "
"However, since I was able to invite Daoist Xiao here, and Daoist Xiao even invited seniors like Xun Kong, Zhang Daoran, and Zhai Xing to break through the Cloud Mountain Maze Formation, isn't this my fortuitous encounter?"
Needless to say, Xue Ping's mind was filled with mixed feelings. Xiao Hua had already flown to the earliest fork in the road.
"Fu Zhiwen, you do it. I'm at my wits' end," Xiao Hua called out with a smile.
Fu Zhiwen responded loudly and flew in front of his head with the Heart Calming Compass in hand.
After flying for more than half a day, they did not see the end of the maze formation. Instead, they encountered many ferocious beasts, fog, Yellow Spring, and blazing objects.
To Xue Ping and the rest, these were fatal things. However, to Xiao Hua, they only stunned him and made him admire Cang Langzi a little more. They did not harm him at all.
"Fu Zhiwen …" Seeing that they had come out of another maze formation, Xiao Hua looked at the marks they had made when they entered and asked helplessly, "What we're doing now seems to be trying one by one. This Heart Calming Compass of yours … actually doesn't have much use.
Do you have any other convenient methods? "
"I'll let you know, Senior."
Fu Zhiwen said with a wry smile, "My Heart Calming Compass can already choose four out of ten. It's more than twice as fast as trying one by one.
Furthermore, Senior Cang Langzi's maze formation … is really troublesome!
I don't know why he set up so many traps in his cave abode! "
Xiao Hua rolled his eyes at Fu Zhiwen and said, "Of course Senior Cang Langzi knows how to get to his cave abode.
In the old man's eyes … every fork in the road would have a mark that the old man himself knew.
We've spent so much time, and he's already sitting on the cloud bed. "
"Yes, yes, you're right, Senior!"
Fu Zhiwen nodded. "If I walk again, even if I enter the cave now, it won't take long for me to reach here."
"There's another possibility!" Xue Ping took the opportunity to say, "The entrance we entered is not the real entrance."
"This … I don't know," Fu Zhiwen looked at Xiao Hua and answered Xue Ping, "Only by walking to the end …"
"Eh?
There's someone??
Who … is it? "
Suddenly, a smile appeared on Xiao Hua's face. He looked behind him and said with a smile, "Is it Brother Xun Kong or Brother Daoran?
It can't be Fellow Daoist Zhai Xing, right? "
"Is that … Perfected Xiao in front?" Just as Xiao Hua looked up, an unfamiliar female cultivator's voice was heard.
"Huh??"
Xiao Hua was surprised and immediately became alert. Magic power surged around his body and he waved his hand, indicating for Fu Zhiwen and the rest to fly behind him. Then, he replied indifferently, "Who are you, Fellow Daoist?
How can you be here? "
"Hehe, so it really is Perfected Xiao!"
The woman laughed coquettishly and said, "I am Li Qiuming. I received a message from Li Xiu and the other juniors. I knew that Fellow Daoist wanted to break the Misty Mountain's maze, so I hurried over. But what surprised me was that Daoist Master had already broken the maze. I truly admire you."
"Li Xiu?"
Xue Ping, who was behind Xiao Hua, hurriedly transmitted his voice, "Senior Xiao, Li Xiu is one of my old friends that I invited earlier. However, he had already left before Perfected Xiao arrived."
"Yes, I understand!" Xiao Hua nodded. "I'm afraid that Li Xiu thinks that I can't break the formation.
You've already started inviting Nascent Soul cultivators, and he just happened to meet this woman. "
"It's possible!" Xue Ping was still somewhat puzzled. "He didn't say that he knew any Nascent Soul cultivators."
While they were talking, Fairy Xu Ming, who had chased into the maze formation of Cloud Mountain, had already appeared in the cave. Behind her were three Nascent Soul cultivators and several second and third grade disciples.
"That's right, Li Xiu and Xiu are inside." Xue Ping hurriedly transmitted his voice when he saw the people who had arrived, seemingly believing them.
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Li is joking."
Xiao Hua cupped his hands. "How could I have such a great ability? It was all thanks to Xun Kong, Zhang Daoran, and Zhai Xingzi. I just took advantage of them."
"Hehe," Fairy Xu Ming laughed. "That's because Perfected Xiao has a great reputation. Xun Kong, Zhang Daoran, and Zhai Xingzi are Fellow Daoists that I've admired for a long time.
I don't dare to say that I can invite all three of them here. "
While speaking, Fairy Xu Ming looked around and said, "However, it seems that the three Fellow Daoists aren't at this entrance. If I want to meet them, I have to go to Senior Cang Lang's cave!"
Xiao Hua didn't answer her. He looked at the people behind her and asked, "Fellow Daoist Li, did you only invite these few Fellow Daoists?
I don't think I've seen them before! "
"Hehe, look at how silly I am!"
Fairy Xu Ming patted her forehead and said self-deprecatingly, "I was so happy that I was able to follow the mark left by Perfected Xiao to this place. I forgot to introduce the three Fellow Daoists to Perfected Xiao."
"This is Fellow Daoist Xian Kong of Mountain Changming."
Fairy Xu Ming raised her hand and introduced. Xian Kong flew a few feet away and stood in the air, cupping his hands towards Xiao Hua. "Greetings, Perfected Xiao."
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Xian Kong!" Xiao Hua looked at Xian Kong and the others with a smile and hurriedly cupped his hands in return.
"This is Perfected Yu Ming!" Fairy Xu Ming introduced again. Xiao Hua was slightly stunned and said with a smile, "Yu Ming?
I met a cultivator before, and he seemed to be called Yu Ming. "
"Oh?
Where is this Fellow Daoist?
I haven't heard of a Fellow Daoist with the same Daoist name as me! "Perfected Yu Ming flew a few feet closer to Xiao Hua and cupped his hands in return.
"That cultivator has already fallen.
Even if I want to introduce you, I can't! "Xiao Hua said with a smile.
"This is Perfected Qiu Luo!"
Fairy Xu Ming introduced the last cultivator. Perfected Yu Ming hurriedly moved aside, seemingly afraid of blocking Xiao Hua's way.
"I've heard of the saying 'Falling leaves know autumn', but I don't know why Fellow Daoist is called Qiu Luo?" Xiao Hua smiled and asked casually.
"Qiu Luo is a harvest. I hope to have more harvest on the road of cultivation." Perfected Qiu Luo explained with a smile, but his tone sounded a bit stiff.
"Oh, right …" After Fairy Xu Ming finished introducing the three Nascent Soul Daoists, Xiao Hua suddenly realized something and asked curiously, "Fellow Daoist Li, what's your Dharma name?"
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Li's Dharma name is quite interesting. I'm afraid Perfected Xiao has heard of it before."
Perfected Qiu Luo smiled and stepped aside, blocking Xian Kongzi's path. Xian Kongzi naturally flew a bit inwards. In this way, Xian Kongzi, Perfected Qiu Luo, and Perfected Yu Ming were right in the middle of Xiao Hua.
"My Dharma name?" Fairy Xu Ming seemed a bit shy and slightly lowered her head. "I'm sure Perfected Xiao has heard of it before!"
"Oh?
What is it?
Have I seen Fellow Daoist before? "
Xiao Hua tilted his head, quite puzzled. However, when he tilted his head, Xiao Hua frowned and became vigilant in his heart, because the position of the four Nascent Soul Daoists was very strange.
At this time, Fairy Xu Ming's eyes were red and she said sadly, "My Dharma name is Xu Ming. I'm sure Perfected Xiao has heard of it before?"
"Fairy Xu Ming?" Xiao Hua was stunned and blurted out, "I've never heard of it before …"
