Wet viviparity

Chapter 291: Escape, Waiting
The arm broke through the nightmare skin and hung above the goat's shattered head, and something was descending along the arm.

"That old monster is coming."

Tiebeigu's face changed slightly, and the thousand centipede legs on the Dharma wheel on her back began to move, shaking out bursts of black smoke that covered the arm tightly.

"Who is breaking my magic arm?"

In the black smoke, an eye and a mouth squeezed out on the arm, shouting angrily.

The arm rushed left and right in the smoke, trying to see the situation clearly, and shouted at the same time: "I know who you are, Bichen, Yuanren Eunice, or Brother Cui. You want to stop me from becoming a Buddha, but I have many heads. If I chop off one, there will be more."

"Noisy!"

Tiebeigu collected the black smoke and her arms together, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mother, didn't you say that the old monster had the most evil heart and the most evil means? We offended him so easily just for a mere outsider. Isn't this a poorly considered move?"

Xie Chunchi said hesitantly.

Tiebeigu's face darkened, she glanced at her daughter and said, "That ancient monster secretly harmed the disciples of the sect, and there are countless people who were driven by it. This time, the two sects on the side will jointly sweep away the evil spirits in the Demon Palace. This is a joint decision of the three immortal elders.

If it weren't for your mediocre skills and ordinary methods, I would have let you participate and gain some opportunities."

As she spoke, Tiebei looked at Ji Ming, thought for a moment, and said, "My dear Jintong, please help me look after my daughter outside the building. Don't let her cause any trouble at this time."

Xie Chunchi was a little annoyed. She wanted to lose her temper because of what her mother thought of her, but when she thought about being alone with Lingxuzi, she had to suppress her emotions for the time being.

Ji Ming nodded. Although he really wanted to watch Tiebeigu perform the spell, he had no choice but to do as his master had ordered.

On a stone platform outside the building, Ji Ming and Xie Chunchi were watching the river waves under the Wutai Bridge. In the absence of others, Xie Chunchi was even more careless in his words, and he made teasing remarks intentionally or unintentionally, and there was more physical contact.

Although Xie Chunchi is Tiebeigu's biological daughter, Ji Ming is not very interested in her. He pretends to be nice to her so that Xie Chunchi will not ruin Zhang Xinmei's escape.

He could see clearly that Xie Chunchi might not be able to succeed, but he was more than capable of causing trouble. Xie Chunchi flirted with her several times on the lawn, but Ji Ming did not respond and did not refuse any of her advances, which made her very upset.

Seeing Ji Ming like this, she couldn't help but think of what her mother said, that with her kind of character, she shouldn't even dream of working for a large righteous sect, but could probably find someone from a scattered and famous family to entrust her with, and that might be a possibility.

Seeing a handsome man in front of her, she said all kinds of nice things to him, but he didn't show any reaction at all. Could it be that he also disliked her for being in a relationship with another man?

Xie Chunchi was feeling troubled when a figure appeared outside the cave. The figure was dressed in white, had a feminine face, and was riding a gray wolf. He landed on the stone platform and seemed not to have seen Ji Ming. He just kept calling Xie Chunchi to come out of the cave for a stroll.

"Brother Lin, let's forget about it today!"

Xie Chunchi refused subconsciously, and he was surprised as soon as he said it.

In the past, she felt that life in the cave was hard to endure and would go out to play whenever she had free time. Now, in order not to be looked down upon by Lingxuzi, she rejected Senior Brother Lin, who used to be the closest to her.

On the wolf's back, the man's feminine face became even more gloomy, but it soon brightened up. He was about to strike up a conversation with the strange Taoist on the ground, but he saw the Taoist sitting cross-legged on the ground, holding a candle and lighting it.

"My name is Lin Xing. My master is Linzhai's old man Peng Huo. I don't know you."

The man was halfway through his words when he saw a puff of white smoke rising from the lit candle. The smoke revealed a scene of towering buildings. Just one glance at it made him feel as if he were already inside the scene, which made him break out in a cold sweat.

"Mirage wax!"

He recognized the candle and knew that this candle was worth the magic weapon he carried. The Taoist in front of him was inhaling the phantom smoke from the candle. After a while, he had inhaled half of it, as if he was practicing martial arts with the help of the wax.

"Junior Sister Xie, this Taoist has an extraordinary appearance. Could he be a disciple of one of your mother's good friends?" Just as Xie Chunchi was about to reply, he heard Lingxuzi, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, say, "I don't need to tell irrelevant people about my affairs. Besides, there are important matters to be handled in the witch cave, so this Taoist friend should wait outside."

Xie Chunchi didn't want to offend Lingxuzi, but he also didn't want to hurt Senior Brother Lin's feelings. While he was hesitating, he saw Lingxuzi spit out a gust of wind, blowing Senior Brother Lin and his mount away.

She was shocked. Although Senior Brother Lin had never defeated the Yin Tiger in the three realms, his own cultivation was not weak. If it weren't for his master, Old Man Peng Huo, who was a Sanliu disciple, his cultivation would definitely not have stopped here.

In the Witch Cave on Huaguang Peak, Senior Brother Lin Xing from the nearby Jilin Village was the most attentive to her. He often came to play with her and expressed his affection for her many times, but her mother did not think much of him. She said that if it were not for the many great things that Elder Peng Huo had done for the cave, Lin Xing would not even be qualified to set foot on the peak, so she asked her to keep her distance.

Xie Chunchi didn't quite agree with her mother's words. There was no need to keep a distance. She just treated Senior Brother Lin as a playmate to kill time. After all, life here was really boring.

Ji Ming placed the mirage wax under his nose and continued to inhale the phantom smoke. His body felt hot and cold. After inhaling only one third of the wax, he put the last bit of the mirage wax down.

He had been practicing Haishi Dafa for some years, and due to the lack of Dantou Void Flower, his level of practice in this secret skill declined.

The effect of this mirage wax is stronger than that of the void flower. It was given to him by Li Muru when he was on the Woyan Island in the Canghai of Kyoto. He has been using it ever since, steadily advancing the Haishi Dafa, and has now returned to perfection.

This secret skill can achieve small success in phantom sound, great success in phantom appearance, and perfect success in phantom god.

Although he can create an illusion of his appearance, such an illusion of face is of little use before the spiritual power of a cultivator in the third realm of foundation building is released, and is really useless.

When Xie Chunchi saw Lingxuzi blowing Lin Xing away and sitting cross-legged on the ground without saying a word, he felt more and more that the other party was sitting cross-legged here, seemingly practicing martial arts, but in fact he was protecting Zhang Xinmei, and he hated him deeply.

She was angry and quietly walked behind Lingxuzi, slapped his head, and got out of the way, ready to scare Lingxuzi.

Although Ji Ming was practicing martial arts, he was in the cave of an alien sect, so how could he not be alert? He knew that Xie Chunchi was circling behind him, but he was unwilling to pay attention to him, as long as he didn't interfere with his plan.

When Zhang Xinmei is free from restraint and has no more worries, he will be able to inquire about the location of the secret treasure in the Demon Palace. Taking advantage of this battle in the Demon Palace, he may be able to gain some benefits. Just thinking about it makes him look forward to it.

"Kaka~"

There was a sound of bones crackling behind me.

Under Xie Chunchi's head, there was a long, curved object that looked like a spine or a centipede. It was black and red in color, with a metallic luster on the surface. It extended out and moved in a winding manner.

This is her Iron-backed Centipede Armor. If she wasn't angry, she wouldn't look so ugly.

The armor twisted and turned with a sound, and flew towards Lingxuzi's back with its head held high. When it was about to get close, the other party suddenly turned his head, but he was not as panicked as she had imagined. The look in his eyes was very strange, as if he was surprised.

Ji Ming was indeed somewhat surprised. He did not expect that Xie Chunchi could refine such a plate of armor.

During the first secret mission, they encountered strange people blocking their way. Several of them showed their true forms of Panjia, but none of them was as exquisite as Xie Chunchi. So they discussed with Xie Chunchi the method of refining Panjia.

Xie Chunchi had little interest in discussing Taoism or metaphysics, and as he was still angry, he ignored it.

Ji Ming did not force the other party. People like Xie Chunchi only wanted temporary pleasure. After a hundred or two hundred years, he would be a withered corpse and would not even be interested in playing with him.

Strange lights flashed and golden rays flickered in the Jinyu Tower. After a long time, Xiong Konger carefully helped Zhang Xinmei, whose face was as white as gold paper, out.

"Fellow Daoist Lingxu, let's go out of the cave and talk."

Zhang Xinmei, whose body was leaning on Xiong Konger, said with a weak breath.

Ji Ming could not tell whether she was happy or sad from her tone. He guessed that something might have gone wrong with her escape. After taking a look at Jin Yu Lou, Ji Ming nodded and said, "Okay, let's go out and talk."
