Chapter 136 Bronze Mirror, New Strange Object (10k)

In Mu Lao's opinion, Shen Bai's strength is indeed very strong, and he is able to overcome adversity. He is a genius among geniuses.

Mu Lao has never denied this and even thinks he has a good vision.

But he didn't expect that Shen Bai would get a new round of promotion in such a short period of time.

Mu Lao suddenly felt that Shen Bai was like a monster, and his improvement speed could only be described as rapid.

"I originally wanted to save my face as a senior in front of this kid, but now it seems that it's impossible." Mu Lao thought to himself.

He had pretended several times in front of Shen Bai before, but Mu Lao always felt that this kid was more pretentious than him, which made Mu Lao very depressed.

After all, the entire Tianjian Division knew that Mu Jianlin was the most pretentious person among the young generation of that generation.

Now that there is someone who is more pretentious than him, of course Mr. Mu has to regain his face on this track.

But now it seems that his plan is about to fail.

"No, I absolutely cannot fail." Mu Lao held the sword in his hand.

Immediately afterwards, he stabbed straight at Shen Bai's attack.

The sword was crooked and looked like an ordinary sword. There was even a slight tremor on the sword, just like an ordinary person stabbing with a sword.

But everyone present could feel the horror of Mu Lao's sword.

The trembling sword body caused a distortion in the space, making the surrounding space unstable.

At the same time, there was an invisible sword energy echoing and lingering on the sword.

Every sword energy made people feel suffocated, as if a mountain was pressing down on them.

An idea emerged in the minds of many members of the Tianjian Division.

"If I face this sword, can I take it?"

The answer is no, because no matter whether it is the members of Division A or Division B, even the veteran masters who have been immersed in the Tongmai realm for a long time, are not sure that they can take on Mu Lao's sword.

"Can Shen Bai take on this?" Another thought emerged in everyone's mind.
There was a hint of anticipation in their eyes as they looked at Shen Bai.

In their minds, Shen Bai has always been an extremely legendary person.

When he first emerged from Shengyun County and was specially recruited by Liu Wufeng, he had already attracted the attention of many people.

Of course, they ultimately regarded Shen Bai as a young man.

Some old members of Division A were thinking that even if he was specially recruited by Liu Wufeng, a young man always has his limits.

But the various events that followed, including the destruction of Shang'e Gate and this nightmare, gave everyone a clearer understanding of Shen Bai.

That is this young man, the one who can chase and beat them.

So when facing Mu Lao's terrifying sword, many members of the Tianjian Division, in addition to wondering whether Shen Bai could take on the sword, some members already had the answer in their hearts.

"Perhaps Shen Bai can take this sword."

This is their answer.

Shen Bai didn't know what they were thinking, but he looked at Mu Lao with a solemn expression as he thrust his sword.

His attack has been launched and there is no possibility of reversal.

He also felt the horror of Maple Forest State's top combat power from Mu Lao's sword.

The overwhelming pressure made Shen Bai feel a little suffocated.

"This is the strength of Mu Lao. As expected, he is worthy of being the Sword King of Maple Forest State."

Shen Bai thought to himself.

Just as he gave up this idea, the attacks from both sides finally came into contact.

The sword energy in Mu Lao's hand seemed to be able to cut through space, facing Shen Bai's blood-red sword energy and golden fist force.

In a flash, all of Shen Bai's magical powers were cut off.

The rest of the blood-red sword energy was dispersed, and there was no possibility of getting close, because there was an invisible barrier around Mu Lao's body.

These are all transformed from sword energy.

Shen Bai looked at the crooked sword, took a deep breath, took a step back, and used the explosive speed attribute.

The unique explosive speed of Shenxing Baili allowed Shen Bai to thrust out a new sword.

And this sword comes with the soul-absorbing power of the soul-casting technique, as well as all the blood-red sword energy.

The blood-red sword energy that gathered together vibrated slightly, also causing the surrounding space to distort.

This twisted space is precisely what compresses all the sword energy, bringing about the terrifying cutting force.

Mu Lao's sword was still stabbing forward, and there was a hint of astonishment in Mu Lao's eyes.

He originally thought that Shen Bai would definitely avoid his sword, but he didn't expect Shen Bai to choose to attack him forcefully.

This time, the power of his sword was reduced by half.

"How many abilities does he have? And he has mastered each of them to such a high level. He is truly a genius." Mu Lao thought to himself.

After all, it is well known that the more you practice, the more mediocre you become.

A person's energy is limited, and it is impossible to divide out infinite energy to practice new skills.

But Shen Bai is a special case.

Each ability is extremely strong and there are many of them.

"But this kid's strength should limit itself here." Mu Lao thought again.

It was indeed very powerful to take his sword, but he felt that it should be Shen Bai's limit.

Thinking of this, Mu Lao did not hesitate and continued to advance his sword.

At this moment, Shen Bai's Hanyue also stabbed forward.

This sword combined all his magical powers.

In addition to the fist force, all the sword energy is condensed into one, with infinite power.

"boom!"

A loud roar was heard, and cracks appeared on the ground. The residual power made it impossible for everyone to open their eyes.

After the blood-red sword energy collided with Mu Lao's invisible sword energy, the residual power began to cut everything around Qu.

Many members of the Tianjian Division who were watching were slightly stunned, and then retreated rapidly.

Deep cracks were left where they stood.

"If I had been stabbed by this sword, I would have been seriously injured."

The members of the Tianjian Division who had dodged were secretly shocked and turned their heads to look at the battlefield.

They want to see results and what they expect.

Mu Lao's sword has become a spent force, and the same is true for Shen Bai's sword.

But compared to Shen Bai, Mu Lao's sword was still stabbing forward.

Just now, Mu Lao felt that part of his Qi seemed to have been absorbed by Shen Bai.

"This kid has special abilities. No, my Hanyue seems to have changed." Mu Lao thought to himself.

Although the four words "my Hanyue" are a bit tongue-twisting, Mu Lao could indeed see that Hanyue seemed to have been processed by Shen Bai.

"But my sword is not simple either." Mu Lao said in his heart.

As this thought came to mind, Mu Lao twisted his wrist slightly.

The long sword, which had already reached the end of its strength, suddenly burst out with even more brilliant brilliance.

This time, it was no longer an invisible sword energy, but a deep blue sword energy, like the vast sea, with a heavy texture.

This is one of Mu Lao's unique skills. When his sword skills have reached their limit, he can unleash a second round of sword power.

Of course, he held back a little, worried that Shen Bai would not be able to resist.

Shen Bai was also slightly stunned. He didn't expect that Mu Lao had such a trick. He said, "Mu Lao's trick is really amazing."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Hanyue in Shen Bai's hand turned around.

Countless blood-red sword energies intertwined in front of him, forming a huge net.

Mu Lao's long sword fell on Shen Bai's big net, and the blood-red sword energy shattered.

At this moment, Mu Lao discovered something unusual.

Shen Bai did not defend himself, but just took a step back, and a flawless light like white jade rose from his body.

"You kid are crazy!" Mu Lao couldn't help but shout.

But at this moment, the long sword was less than an inch away from Shen Bai.

Even with his swordsmanship prowess, it was too late to retract it at this moment.

"Get away!"

Mu Lao shouted.

The members of the Tianjian Division also saw this situation and showed anxiety on their faces.

They found that something seemed to be out of control in this battle.

Many members of the Tianjian Division even drew their weapons and wanted to step forward to help Shen Bai block the sword.

After all, the second burst of this sword was too terrifying.

But then, they were shocked by the scene before them.

The jade-like light on Shen Bai's body was shattered by Mu Lao's long sword.

But after breaking one layer, there was another layer inside.

"what's the situation?"

The members of the Tianjian Division were filled with doubts.

Mu Lao was also confused. He felt that after breaking the first layer, the momentum of the sword had weakened, but he didn't expect that there was another layer inside.

"How much stuff does this kid have?" Mu Lao was puzzled, but also a little curious.

Thanks to the obstruction of the white light, Mu Lao was able to control the sword, so he was not worried about hurting Shen Bai.

He did not continue to increase his strength, but just kept the sword and stabbed forward.

One floor, two floors, three floors...

Thirteen layers of white light were broken one by one by Mu Lao.

But at the fourteenth level, Mu Lao's sword stopped.

The invisible sword energy above disappeared into thin air and no longer had the power it had just now.

Shen Bai was surrounded by white light. He smiled slightly, then took a deep breath and the Qi in his body began to circulate.

Sixteen layers of white light once again covered his entire body, as if it had never been destroyed.

"Mr. Mu, how about this move?" Shen Bai said with a smile.

Mu Lao put away his sword, his mouth twitching slightly. "I was wondering why you didn't block this sword. It turns out there's such a magical defensive technique. Judging from the posture, it seems to have sixteen levels, and each level has such amazing defensive power."

Sixteenth floor?
When these words were spoken, all the members of the Tianjian Division present widened their eyes.

They began to whisper, discussing Shen Bai's sixteen layers of white light.

"The light defense is amazing, it can even wear out Mu Lao's sword."

"There are actually sixteen layers, each as thin as paper, yet the defensive power of each layer is so outstanding. What kind of ability is this?"

"It seems no one knows from which sect Shen Bai learned his skills."

"I don't know, but I think his teacher must be very terrifying."

They have already started discussing whose disciple Shen Bai is.

After all, strength like Shen Bai's could never be cultivated by one person alone.

Shen Bai listened to the discussions but ignored them. Instead, he looked at Mu Lao and asked, "What level am I at in Maple Forest State?"

Mu Lao had already sheathed his sword. After hearing Shen Bai's words, he thought for a moment and said, "Except for some old monsters, you can walk sideways in Fenglin State."

This sentence is an affirmation of Shen Bai.

The so-called old monsters are rare in Maple Forest State.

After all, people of Mu Lao's level are extremely rare in Fenglin State.

Shen Bai nodded and said, "I see. Now I am confident."

This time, he just wanted to ask Mu Lao about his actual strength. Now that he has measured it out, he is of course satisfied.

Mu Lao looked at the members of the Tianjian Division around him and glared at them, "You've all finished watching. What else is there to see? Disperse."

He didn't like being watched by others, but he had just had a very exciting fight, so he ignored these guys.

The members of the Tianjian Division around them looked at each other, unable to conceal the shock in their eyes, and all scattered like birds and beasts.

Today's battle was an eye-opener for them.

This is the first time I’ve seen someone at the Five Internal Organs Realm fight like this with Mu Lao.

It may have an indelible impact on their future lives.

After Mu Lao asked the group to leave, he said, "Let's go and have a cup of tea in my resource room."

Shen Bai nodded and did not refuse.

He still had a lot of things he wanted to know from Mu Lao, including the internal examination.

The two of them left the training ground quickly without stopping.

The training ground was littered with rubble and ruins, but they didn't need to worry about it, as it would be rebuilt soon.

……

Shen Bai was testing his strength, and on the other side, there was a mountain about a hundred miles away from Fenglin State.

Inside the mountain, there is an ordinary Taoist temple.

The mountains tower into the clouds and look extremely magnificent.

If ordinary people pass by this mountain and see it, they will secretly shake their heads and will not think of climbing it.

Because this mountain is too high.

Among the mountains, this Taoist temple appears to be quite ordinary.

The Taoist temple is very large, with many rooms and is full of ancient atmosphere.

Because it is built on the mountain, it has a bit of Taoist charm.

It’s just that this Taoist temple looks a little old.

But if a cultivator passes by this Taoist temple, he will definitely pay it a visit and show respect.

The reason is simple: this is Tianqing Taoist Temple.

When the bloody night occurred in Fenglin Province, the owner of Tianqing Taoist Temple and all the disciples of the Taoist temple bravely died, and finally completely resolved the crisis that would destroy Fenglin Province.

It can be said that in the entire Fenglin State, Tianqing Taoist Temple is a heroic existence.

The remaining nine people in the Tianqing Taoist Temple never recruited disciples on a large scale.

No one knows why this happened, and Tianqing Taoist Temple has never mentioned it to anyone. It has become a secret in the entire Fenglin State.

At this moment, in the Tianqing Taoist Temple, Taoist Master Chong Ling was holding a palm-sized mirror in his hand and packing his bags, preparing to go out.

Outside, eight men in Taoist robes were waiting eagerly.

When Taoist Chong Ling walked out, the eight people immediately surrounded him.

"Brother, are we setting off today?" One of the Taoists with shoulder-length eyebrows asked.

Taoist Priest Chong Ling nodded and said, "Tianqing Taoist Temple has never recruited any disciples in all these years. They have always followed the will left by the temple master."

"This time, someone who fits the Master's description has finally appeared. I must make this a reality."

"The Tianqing Taoist Temple cannot fall into our hands."

Taoist Changmei pondered for a moment and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Senior Brother, to go on this trip."

The other Taoists did not say anything, and they obviously agreed with Taoist Chong Ling's approach.

Taoist Priest Chong Ling nodded and said, "My fellow disciples, you must take good care of this Taoist temple. Although Tianqing Taoist Temple is now desolate, this is where we will continue to receive our incense in the future."

Taoist Changmei and his fellow apprentices bowed and said, "Brother, don't worry, we will definitely guard it well."

"With that, I'm leaving."

Taoist Chong Ling nodded, said no more, left the gate of Tianqing Taoist Temple, and headed towards the Jiantian Division.

He had a lot of thoughts along the way.

Especially when I think about the recent situation of Tianqing Taoist Temple in recent years, I feel depressed.

On the bloody night in Fenglin Province, the entire Tianqing Taoist Temple bravely died, leaving only nine of them.

As for Taoist Master Chong Ling, he has no complaints.

After all, even at that time, he was willing to die heroically.

What Tianqing Taoist Temple emphasizes is maintaining the safety of the people, and this is also the principle they have always followed.

However, since that time, due to a word from the temple master, the Tianqing Taoist Temple has been silent until now.

Taoist Master Chong Ling still felt a little uncomfortable, but they persisted.

Now, there is finally someone who meets their requirements.

Although Taoist Chong Ling did not show his inner joy, his daily actions made it clear to other fellow disciples.

After all, everyone wants to make their own power prosperous, and Fukuzawa Wanli and others are no exception.

Walking on this path in the woods.

Taoist Chong Ling looked in the direction of Jiantiansi, and his thoughts became deeper.

"I hope that this time, Lord Shen can completely untie the shackles of Tianqing Taoist Temple. From now on, I will not be ashamed of the temple master's instructions to me."

Taoist Chong Ling thought so in his heart, picked up two pieces of talisman paper from his arms and stuck them on his legs.

After the talisman paper burned, Taoist Chong Ling instantly turned into a shadow and rushed towards Fenglin Province. Before long, he disappeared into the towering mountain.

……

Taoist Master Chongling of Tianqing Taoist Temple has already gone down the mountain and is on the other side, in a secret place.

At this moment, a Taoist priest and a monk were sitting on a cushion, falling into a long silence.

The Taoist priest was very old, with gray hair and tired eyes.

Although the monk looked only middle-aged, his palms were like dry tree bark.

There were many Taoists and monks surrounding the two of them.

Obviously, these people are centered around them.

The old Taoist priest turned around, looked at the monk in front of him, and broke the silence: "Yuan An, the higher-ups are very dissatisfied with us. You know this. What are you going to do next?"

When these words were spoken, everyone present turned their attention to him.

Whether they were Taoists or monks, there was a hint of fatigue in everyone's eyes, as if they had not slept for many days.

They are from the Wild Taoist Sect and the Wild Buddhist Sect of Fenglin State, and the old Taoist priest and the monk are the leaders here.

Not long ago, Liu Wufeng brought members of the Tianjian Division and surrounded them like crazy, even sending out half of their manpower and resources.

Among the evil forces in Fenglin State, Shang'e Gate and Dark Hall have always been thorns in the side of Jiantiansi.

Originally, they served as a shield for the Wild Taoist Sect and the Wild Buddhist Sect, allowing the two to survive well in this gap, and even to create some trouble when the Heavenly Guardian Department dealt with them, causing great trouble to the Heavenly Guardian Department.

But since Shen Bai came, everything changed.

The evil door is gone, and the dark hall is gone.

After losing these two thorns in his side, Fenglin State's Tianjiansi was finally able to free up his hands to deal with them.

Liu Wufeng mobilized half of his personnel and even cooperated with the constables of the yamen, causing these two forces to suffer heavy losses in a short period of time.

Although the damage did not reach the core, for them, every damage was irreversible.

This time, the two forces gathered here to discuss the next plan.

If they don't fight back, they will be eaten up like a piece of cake by the Tianjiansi.

By then, there will only be two or three kittens left, and they won’t be able to cause any big trouble.

After hearing the old Taoist's question, Monk Yuan'an fell into a long silence and did not speak a word.

Taoist Qianqing frowned more and more tightly. "If you don't speak, it means silence. Silence means there is no solution. If there is no solution, then both of our forces will be abandoned by the higher-ups. You know the consequences of being abandoned."

"Without follow-up, resources, or support, we will be like rootless weeds, ready to wither and die at any moment."

Monk Yuan An sighed: "Master, if there is a way, I would have thought of it long ago, but how can we kill Shen Bai now? The meaning of the above is very simple. This time, our two forces have been severely defeated by Shen Bai. If we can't kill him, then there is no need for us to exist."

Taoist Qianqing gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I know this, but we have to kill them even if we can't. If we can't kill them, we will die. You are well aware of how the higher-ups treat us."

"But what can we do now?" Monk Yuan An clenched his hands. "Shen Bai won't leave Fenglin Province now, and we've messed up the nightmare again. Tell me what you think we can do."

Speaking of this, Monk Yuanan's anger was rising.

The Wild Taoist Sect and the Wild Buddhist Sect are not serious forces. They are evil forces that are well-known in the martial arts world.

The people under his command naturally cannot be good men and women.

This time, they failed and suffered heavy losses, all because of Shen Bai.

The order has been given by the higher-ups, and they have brought shame to the higher-ups because of their failed action.

If they cannot kill Shen Bai, they will abandon them like pawns and tell others what the price is for failing to complete the mission.

If you want to regain the favor of the higher-ups, you have to complete the unfinished tasks.

But the problem came again.

Shen Bai broke the nightmare and has been active in Fenglin State, so they have no chance at all.

They didn't dare to enter Fenglin State in person.

Not to mention Liu Wufeng, even Mu Lao and Long Yan were waiting for them to go in and give them a fatal blow.

They would not do such a thing as draining the pond to catch fish.

It is precisely because of this that the Yedao Sect and the Yefo Sect are in complete trouble.

If they cannot be killed, the higher-ups will blame them. After being blamed, they will not be given any resources and will be left to fend for themselves.

Finally, it disappeared completely.

This is an endless loop.

At least Monk Yuanan can't break it at the moment.

Taoist Qianqing heard what Monk Yuanan said and felt the anger in Monk Yuanan. He stroked his long beard and said, "It's not that there is no solution, but perhaps we have to pay a price."

When these words were spoken, everyone's eyes, which had originally been on Monk Yuan An, now shifted to Taoist Qian Qing.

Monk Yuan An was slightly stunned, then loosened his clenched hands, supported himself on the ground, and asked: "If you have any ideas, just tell us directly, otherwise we will not be able to kill Shen Bai, and we will really die."

No one likes death. Everyone wants to live a miserable life, and Monk Yuanan is no exception.

Taoist Qianqing remained silent, and the scene fell into silence, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Monk Yuanan did not urge him, but just stared at Taoist Qianqing, waiting for his next words.

After about half an incense stick of time, Taoist Qianqing seemed to be organizing his words. At this time, he finally organized them and spoke slowly.

"I heard that the annual internal examination of the Tianjian Division is about to begin, and Shen Bai is one of the participants in this internal examination."

When these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned, then they reacted and their faces showed ecstasy.

Monk Yuan An's eyes widened, a gleam of light flashed in them, and then quickly returned to normal. He clasped his hands together, and there was no longer any anger or anxiety on his body. "I understand what the Taoist priest means."

Of course he understands.

The internal examination means leaving Fenglin State and going to a designated location to participate in the assessment.

The most important thing here is the five words "leave Fenglin State".

This means that Shen Bai will not stay in Fenglin State for long and will rush to the competition venue.

While they are on the way there, it is their chance to take action.

Liu Wufeng, Mu Lao and others need to stay in Fenglin Province, so they cannot go together.

Therefore, on the way there, they could mobilize all the manpower of the two forces to kill Shen Bai in one fell swoop.

This is also their only chance.

If we miss this opportunity, we will have to wait for a long time, and perhaps there will be no chance even after the two forces are eliminated in Maple Forest State.

Taoist Priest Qianqing nodded and said, "This is the last chance, and also the best chance, so we must seize it."

Monk Yuan An looked around at the faces around him and said, "Since that's the case, let's make a detailed plan for this time."

Taoist Qianqing agreed without saying much.

Soon, the only sounds in this secret place were those of the two people talking.

Plans are coming out one after another, and they are selecting the most suitable one.

Killing Shen Bai is what they must do, and in order to ensure that there is no mistake, this time they will put all their efforts into it.

The sound of discussion continued to spread and echoed in this mysterious place.

……

Shen Bai didn't know what was happening in these places because he was once again addicted to the happiness of being a liver emperor.

After Hao Yuxie's body transformed into the flawless tenth level body, Shen Bai shifted his attention to another magical power.

This magical power is the Xuanxin Mantra.

He came here because of his magical power, and the Xuanxin Curse was of great use to Shen Bai.

First of all, the two attributes of peace of mind and tranquility allow him to remain calm at all times and not even be attacked by any attacks that disrupt his mind.

The attribute of invulnerability also allows him to have higher defense when facing weirdness.

Although this defense is not external, when you are in the world, you must be comprehensive in all aspects.

Of course, for Shen Bai, the most important thing is to strengthen this attribute.

The so-called blessing is to bless the supernatural powers with Taoist texts, giving them more powerful combat power.

This is an active magical power, but it is also a passive attribute. It has a direct combat power bonus and does not require high changes in the surrounding environment.

For Shen Bai, it is the most urgent thing.

Now, Shen Bai is about to face the internal examination of the Tianjian Division. He still wants to gain benefits from this internal examination, so he once again resumes his daily life as a hardworking person.

The members of the Tianjian Division were also very impressed by Shen Bai's extremely regular and devilish schedule.

After all, he is strong, hardworking, and talented. To put it simply, if he is not awesome, who is?

In this regard, the members of the Tianjian Division, who were originally a little envious, suddenly felt that everything Shen Bai had obtained was well deserved.

Shen Bai didn't care about all this. He found a lot of fun in working hard every day.

For example, when reporting for duty every day, he would have an extreme fight with the owner of the Long room, and every day he would go to the resource room and have a cup of tea with Mr. Mu.

Also, before leaving, he went to Liu Wufeng to chat for a while, and finally in the evening, he accompanied Qin Shuang to the street to eat a bowl of steaming wontons.

These things in life allowed Shen Bai to find a lot of fun in the boredom of madly working on his proficiency.

Shen Bai has even become accustomed to life in Fenglin State and feels that living here seems to be more comfortable than living in Shengyun County.

……

Today, it's time to report for duty again.

Shen Bai got up early, stretched, took Amber out and had breakfast.

"Master Shen, this is the breakfast you requested."

The shop owner placed breakfast on Shen Bai's table, said hello, and prepared to leave with a smile.

This smile comes from the heart.

Although Shen Bai's official uniform is intimidating, his peaceful personality creates an extreme sense of contrast.

This makes the street vendors feel close to them.

"Oh, today's porridge is more than others." Shen Bai said with a smile, lowered his head and took a sip.

The shop owner scratched his head and said, "Of course, I have more things for Lord Shen. Lord Shen, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean any other things. I just like you very much."

Shen Bai certainly understood what the shop owner meant and nodded, "Okay, you go ahead and do your work. After we finish eating, I'll put the money on the table as usual."

"Okay, then you eat first." The shop owner agreed and went back to his own business.

Shen Bai put Amber aside and let Amber play around at his feet.

He concentrated on eating.

The most important thing in life is eating.

Shen Bai was very serious when he was eating.

He ensures that you can taste the flavor of the ingredients in every bite.

"Boss, the money is thrown on the table."

This meal took about half an incense stick of time.

After Shen Bai finished eating, he put the money on the table and kicked Amber's butt.

Amber was playing on the ground. After being kicked by Shen Bai, she was not angry. She meowed and jumped into Shen Bai's arms.

"No wonder everyone likes petting cats, it's really exciting."

Shen Bai scooped up two handfuls of amber and went to the Tianjiansi with the amber.

Every day when it’s time to report for duty, I would have a tug-of-war with the owner of the Dragon Room.

Shen Bai originally thought that today's routine would be the same.

But he never expected that before he entered the Tianjiansi, he met an acquaintance.

On the street not far away, Taoist Chong Ling, dressed in a Taoist robe, was walking towards Shen Bai with something wrapped in cloth in his hand.

Judging from his expression, he actually wanted to go to the Tianjian Division, but Shen Bai happened to be at the door.

Shen Bai finally remembered this Taoist priest, walked forward, and happened to meet Taoist Chong Ling face to face.

Before Shen Bai could say anything, Taoist Chong Ling spoke first.

"Greetings, Lord Shen. I hope you are well."

Shen Bai looked at Taoist Chong Ling in front of him and nodded, saying, "It has been a long time since we last met at Xuanxin Temple. I hope Taoist Chong Ling is doing well."

In fact, in Shen Bai's heart, he admired the people of Tianqing Taoist Temple very much.

Not to mention the bloody night incident in Fenglin Prefecture, the fact that Tianqing Taoist Temple has always adhered to the abbot's will and never recruited disciples and endured the lack of development is already worthy of admiration.

After all, any force, after achieving such a great achievement, would definitely use this opportunity to revitalize their own sect and restore their former glory.

But Tianqing Taoist Temple did it, and they truly survived the most difficult years.

Even though it is difficult now, they seem to have gotten used to it.

After Shen Bai finished the greetings, he saw the object in Taoist Chong Ling's hand.

Although it was wrapped in cloth, from the outline it looked like a bronze mirror.

After seeing this thing, Shen Bai immediately remembered the conversation they had in Xuanxin Temple.

"Master, could this be the bronze mirror left by the abbot of Tianqing Taoist Temple?" Shen Bai asked.

He was very curious. After all, the temple master seemed to have figured him out, and at a huge price, he also said that he could break the long-standing restriction of Tianqing Taoist Temple on not accepting disciples.

At that time, Taoist Chong Ling said that he would bring the bronze mirror over, but Shen Bai didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Taoist Chong Ling nodded and said, "This matter is very important, so I went back and discussed it with several fellow disciples. Finally, after everyone agreed, I brought it here."

The two were talking outside the Tianjiansi. Shen Bai looked at the bronze mirror and felt that it was very important. After thinking about it, he wanted to ask Taoist Chong Ling to come into the house to talk.

"Master, there will be gossip outside. Why don't we talk about it after we enter the Heavenly Monitoring Division?"

Taoist Chong Ling nodded, seemingly in no hurry, and agreed: "No problem, please, Lord Shen."

Tianqing Taoist Temple has been holding it back for so long and doesn't care about the time it takes, so Taoist Chongling is not in a hurry.

Seeing that Taoist Chong Ling agreed, Shen Bai took Taoist Chong Ling into the Jiantian Division.

First he checked in, then went to the room of Ding Twenty-three.

Along the way, many members of the Tianjian Division looked sideways frequently.

They recognized Shen Bai, and they recognized Taoist Chong Ling even more.

After all, in the entire Fenglin State, there are only a handful of people who don’t know Taoist Chong Ling.

At that time, among the remaining nine Taoists in Tianqing Taoist Temple, Taoist Chongling was considered the current abbot, so wherever Taoist Chongling went in Fenglin State, he would attract the attention of others.

Shen Bai didn't think there was anything wrong. He brought Taoist Chong Ling to Ding Twenty-Three Department.

At this moment, Huang Guang and Kong Fang were still discussing various matters concerning the Jiaofangsi, and they were discussing it very loudly in the room.

As if they heard some noise, they were startled when they saw Shen Bai leading Taoist Chong Ling in.

Without waiting for them to speak, Shen Bai waved his hand and said, "You guys go down first. The Taoist Priest and I have something to discuss."

Shen Bai had agreed to it when they were at Xuanxin Temple, so if he could help Taoist Chong Ling solve the problem today, he might as well do it.

Huang Guang and Kong Fang looked at each other, then bowed and agreed.

They didn't waste any words. After all, in the Tianjian Division, executing orders was always the top priority.

Soon, the two left the room.

After the two left, Shen Bai was not in a hurry. He poured a cup of tea for Taoist Chong Ling and then asked.

"Master, is this the bronze mirror from your Tianqing Taoist Temple?"

Shen Bai gets straight to the point without wasting time.

When it’s time to exchange pleasantries, they’ve already been exchanged, so just ask directly.

Smart people save time when doing things.

Taoist Chong Ling was of course a smart man, so after Shen Bai asked this question, he nodded and said, "Yes, that's it."

Without any nonsense, he handed the cloth-wrapped bronze mirror to Shen Bai's desk, then picked up the teacup next to it and took a sip.

Shen Bai put the freshly poured tea aside and picked up the cloth-wrapped bronze mirror on the table. Without unwrapping the cloth, he took a quick look at the outline before asking, "Can you open it?"

Taoist Chong Ling nodded and said, "Master Shen, please do as you wish."

After getting the answer, Shen Bai peeled off a corner of the cloth wrapped around the bronze mirror.

Originally, Shen Bai thought that this cloth should be ordinary cloth, but when his hand touched the cloth, he found that there were lines of hidden Taoist texts on it.

"Isolated from the aura?"

Shen Bai's Xuanxin Mantra is the magical power of Taoism. By analogy, he can naturally see a lot of clues.

After looking carefully for a moment, Shen Bai realized that this was a Taoist text specifically used to isolate the aura.

Taoist Chong Ling did not answer, meaning that Shen Bai should continue to demolish.

Although Shen Bai was confused, he still removed the cloth covering the bronze mirror.

The moment he untied the cloth, a cold aura emanated from the bronze mirror.

The bronze mirror is very ordinary, but the cold aura makes it look a little unusual.

A line of smoke appeared in front of Shen Bai's eyes.

Then, it condensed into a new line of text.

【Strange bronze mirror】
