Chapter 982 Entering the Island
"Very good!" the old man praised and said, "The surface hexagram is that guests are coming, that is, there is a distinguished guest visiting. Not only do you see this, but you can also tell that it comes from the east, which shows that your bloodline is extraordinary! However, the difficulty in the second level of "Astrology" lies in the details. Can you calculate what the distinguished guest is? Is it a single person or a multitude? Is it a man or a woman? What race? How is it cultivation? Why did it come?"
When the young man heard this, he frowned. He pierced his finger with a silver needle again, then reactivated the three hexagrams and closed his eyes to make divination.
This time, the boy's spell casting was obviously much more difficult. He kept hitting out magic powers, and his face gradually turned pale.
Seeing this, the old man's face changed slightly and hurriedly shouted: "It's enough, stop quickly and stop in time!"
The young man wanted to stop casting spells as he said, but the three hexagrams were hanging in the air and refused to fall. The young man's magic power was involuntarily pulled away by them. The young man's body became weak and almost fainted.
The old man quickly waved his sleeves and a wave of invisible force was rolled out. The hexagram order immediately fell on the Bagua plate. At the same time, the old man pressed his palm on the young man's vest, injecting him with a thin and long pure magic power.
The boy let out a mouthful of black blood with a "wow" sound, and slowly woke up, his face gradually became rosy.
"It was the ancestor who asked too much!" said the old man: "You have a low cultivation level and cannot force divination too much. Remember, divination techniques rely on the power of the laws of heaven to see the secrets of heaven, and they will inevitably be feedback from the power of the laws of heaven. The more information you divination is, the more serious the treasure or matter you are doing, the more terrifying the feedback you receive! Never abuse the "Astrology"!"
"Yes, ancestor!" said the young man: "But just now, Xiaoyu faintly divined that the distinguished guest was a human monk."
"It's really good!" The old man nodded with satisfaction. He gently touched the boy's head, his eyes full of caress.
"You go down and rest! Don't take too much of the elixirs given to you just now, take one every three days." The old man reminded me carefully: "Remember what the ancestor said to you, you can't tell anyone what you have achieved when practicing the "Astrology" and even your closest partner cannot reveal anything, and even your parents cannot know it!"
"Why can't even speak about your parents?" the boy was stunned.
"The more people know, the easier it is to be exposed. Once exposed, it will bring you endless trouble. The population of our astrological clan has withered, and most of them are ordinary tribes whose bloodlines are thin and cannot awaken for life. In addition to the ancestors, you are the only descendant who can awaken the bloodline of our ancestors, and it is also the hope for the astrological clan to preserve it!" said the old man seriously.
Perhaps because of a little excitement, the old man suddenly started to cough violently. Although he forced his luck to reconcile his true energy, he couldn't help but cough for a while, and vomited a mouthful of blood, and his face turned purple and red.
The young man patted the old man's back obediently. Although this did not work, it was his filial piety.
"The ancestor's cultivation is so high, can't he cure this minor illness?" the young man said with a frown.
"It's a problem that has been tens of thousands of years!" The old man smiled bitterly and said, "At that time, the ancestor was forced to perform a large-scale high-level divination technique on several big figures because he could not refuse. He received extremely serious feedback and injured his original body. So no matter what treasure the ancestor took, his body became weaker and weaker. The ancestor told you this matter, hoping that you would learn from it. If no one knew that you could divination technique, he would naturally not do everything possible to let you take action! Once someone knew about it, I'm afraid he would be involuntarily!"
"Even the ancestor can force them, what is the origin of those people?" the young man asked in surprise.
The old man shook his head: "You'd better not know too much!"
The old man gave a few more words of advice and asked the young man to leave.
After the boy left, the old man adjusted his breath slightly and looked to the east.
"This time the distinguished guest is extraordinary!" The old man murmured to himself: "It seems that I want to greet him in person!"
Then, the old man turned into a demonic shadow, soared into the sky, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
...
After Li Muran and Fairy Qianhuan landed at the entrance to the east of Xiyun Island, they saw long queues, all monks waiting to enter the island from here.
Li Muran and the other two were also in the line. Although this kind of thing was quite rare, as high-level cultivators, there was still such patience, and no one showed an impatient attitude.
Li Muran saw that many monks did not need to queue up and flew in and out of the huge island gate near the entrance. Dragon Soul said that these are monks who have lived on the island for a long time, with permanent tokens and can enter and exit freely. However, a permanent token of Xiyun Island is of great value! Just like Li Muran, who only passes here, it is more cost-effective to apply for short-term identity tokens.
Li Muran and Fairy Qianhuan are both wearing loose black robes, which are most common in the demon world. Fairy Qianhuan also wears a masked black veil. Her face is too beautiful, and it is rare to see even among high-level immortal cultivators. If she reveals her true face, it will inevitably attract a lot of attention.
The two of them restrained their breath and mixed in these demon cultivators. There was nothing special about them. Except for the occasional glances of monks who looked around and glanced over them, almost no one looked at them.
Suddenly, Li Muran felt a chill all over his body, and he couldn't help but his heart beat wildly. When he reacted, his face was flushed red in an instant.
"What's going on?" asked Fairy Qianhuan.
"It's strange!" Li Muran said quietly, "This feeling is like a high-level monk quietly sweeping past his side with powerful divine thoughts, and then some instinctive sensing arises."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fairy Qianhuan suddenly let out a "ah" and there was a similar sensation.
Generally speaking, if a high-level monk uses his divine consciousness to detect low-level monks, he can invade forcibly, or he can do so without any trace, and even prevent the low-level monks from being able to notice it. However, the stronger the divine consciousness of a low-level monk, the more likely he is to have some instinctive reactions to remind himself that someone secretly investigates him.
Li Muran and Fairy Qianhuan are both people with extremely powerful divine consciousness. After they had a faint sense, they looked towards the sensed direction.
But the two saw an old hunchback flying out at the island gate near the entrance. The old man looked blurred and weak. He looked like the old monk who had a short lifespan and was about to die.
Although this kind of cultivator may have a low level of cultivation, his body has become increasingly weak irreversible. Unless his cultivation level improves by leaps and bounds into a new great realm, it will be difficult to make any changes.
"Is it him?" Li Muran was stunned. The old man seemed to have only the initial stage of the demon body cultivation, and it was impossible for him to have such a strong sense of emotion.
The old man seemed to have noticed the gazes of Li Muran and Fairy Qianhuan, and the godless eyes also looked at them.
The old man also squeezed a smile at the two of them. Li Muran and Fairy Qianhuan looked at each other in confusion, not understanding the reason.
"Fellow Daoist Heiyan, you have rich experience, why don't you secretly help me to see what's going on?" Fairy Qianhuan said through her divine thoughts and the dragon soul hidden in the small tripod.
However, the Dragon Soul refused to find his soul thoughts. He said, "If you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one. If someone on this island can sense Lao Chen's breath, will he immediately expose his position as soon as Lao Chen comes out of the small tripod? If you encounter a strong enemy, you can leave Lao Chen and run away on your own. Lao Chen will be unable to fly! As long as the black evil knows that Lao Chen's breath still exists, he will definitely do his best to arrest Lao Chen!"
When Dragon Soul said this, Fairy Qianhuan was not willing to force her. Fortunately, the strange feeling was only a moment and it stopped appearing again.
After a while, many monks came nearby one after another, preparing to line up to enter the island.
Suddenly, Li Muran felt that the demonic energy behind him almost solidified for a moment, but immediately returned to normal.
If Li Muran had not been able to detect this subtle change, if it weren't for Li Muran's sensing of the energy of heaven and earth, it would have been impossible to detect it. Even Fairy Qianhuan had not been able to realize it because she had been practicing "The Nameless Art" much shorter than Li Muran.
"Strange, this feeling is like a powerful high-level cultivator suddenly appears. Although the high-level cultivator restrained his breath, the surrounding heaven and earth energy sensed and there were slight changes." Li Muran frowned. He turned around and looked behind him, and saw many demon cultivators scattered in the queue, and could not see any mystery.
"Am I too nervous?" Li Muran was quite suspicious.
At this moment, the hunchbacked old man floating in the air suddenly flew towards Li Muran, which surprised Li Muran slightly.
However, the old man just flew past him. Not long after, the old man stopped behind the line and bowed to the last few black-robed monks in the line.
The monks also returned the gifts.
The hunchbacked old man and the monks seemed to be talking in secret words and voiced. Li Muran was looking at this scene curiously, and suddenly one of the middle-aged men in black robe cast a sharp look at him.
When Li Muran was seen by this gaze, his heart was beating wildly involuntarily, and subconsciously turned his gaze away and did not dare to wait and see.
"The cultivation of these guys is definitely not as simple as it seems!" Li Muran said in his heart that he had contacted many cultivators, but no one could have given him such a feeling except for the Mahayana Elder Tianjian Old Man!
"Have they seen through our identities?" Li Muran was secretly shocked.
Fortunately, after talking secretly, the hunchbacked old man flew towards the island gate one after another. I don’t know what the old man said to the monks guarding the island gate, so the guard immediately let them into the island without having to queue up.
After these people left, Li Muran felt relieved. He saw that these people were not simple, but fortunately they were not coming for him.
