Immortal Formula

   Chapter 6 The Mysterious Team

   When we arrived at the main hall, the lady sat on the main seat, Gu Yan rudely sat on the guest seat, the young man also sat down, and the Taoist priest stood behind the young man. Madam smiled at Gu Yan and said, "My concubine's name is Huayang, this is Daoist Master Qingyang, and this is Kuang Zhen of Nanze Kuang's family.

   Gu Yan heard her talk about the Nanze Kuang family, and knew that this must be a cultivator family. Presumably this young man was a direct descendant of the Kuang family, so he could have such cultivation at a young age. At this time, I heard Mrs. Huayang ask her: "I don't know your surname, what is your name?"

   She answered briefly: "My surname is Gu." She didn't say her name.

   Kuang Zhen raised his brows: "Are you a child of the Yunyang Gu family?"

  Gu Yan said lightly: "Gu Hengchen is the great-grandfather of the family." Gu Hengchen is the head of the Gu family. He is just over 100 years old this year.

   Mrs. Huayang happily said: "So Young Master Gu is a son of a famous family, it's really good."

  Gu Yan said with a smile: "I've been out for travel, I've been away from home for a long time, and I feel homesick. I wanted to go home, but I heard that someone is going to Yunyang, and that's why I want to be with you. May I ask your wife, why are you going to Yunyang?"

Mrs. Huayang frowned and said, "My concubine's maiden name is Qin, and I live in Nanze with the Kuang family. Back then, my family's patriarch had an agreement with Ling Zengzu..." She hesitated for a moment, and then said, "This time I will Going to Yunyang is to send a token to the Gu family."

  Gu Yan was very surprised, listening to her tone, it seemed that she was also a member of the Xiuxian family. The "patriarch" she referred to should be the elders in the family who devoted themselves to cultivation. Generally, they did not care about mundane affairs and practiced wholeheartedly, but their mana was usually higher than that of the patriarch. From her body, she could not feel the breath of cultivation, and looking at the young man's attitude towards her, he did not seem like a hidden master. Why should she be a mortal to handle the affairs of the two immortal clans? It's just that Gu Yan never knew about the Gu family, so she just nodded and didn't ask questions.

   Mrs. Huayang smiled and said, "You must not be clear about this matter. I will go home and ask Ling Zengzu to know the details." She turned back and asked the maid, "Is Mrs. Xu up?"

The maid said, "Senior Xu is meditating indoors..." Before she could finish speaking, she heard a loud voice saying, "Is Madam back?" Following the loud voice, a tall man strode off came in. He was about forty years old, with green stubble on his face, and a leather robe showing half of his chest and one arm. A pair of bright eyes radiated cold light. He carried a large iron sword on his back.

   As soon as he came in, Mrs. Huayang and Kuang Zhen both stood up and saluted him: "I have seen Mrs. Xu." Gu Yan was stunned, but did not expect this tall and strong man to be called "Mrs.". When she let go of her divine sense, she felt that the aura on Mrs. Xu's body was extremely huge. When she let go of her divine sense, it was swallowed up like a drop of water into the vast ocean. She was startled and quickly put it away. came back. I just feel that the breath on his body is a little unstable. Could it be that he was injured?

   Mrs. Xu glanced at Gu Yan like electricity, "Who is this doll?"

   Mrs. Huayang replied respectfully: "He is a child of the Gu family in Yunyang City, and he walked with us."

   Mrs. Xu snorted: "We have to get to Yunyang before April, we can't delay, let's set off today!"

   Gu Yan looked at it coldly. It seemed that this Madam Xu was the leader among these people, and everyone obeyed his orders. Kuang Zhen glanced at her and said, "Senior Xu is a loose cultivator from Nanze. He was entrusted by the head of the Qin family to walk with us."

  Gu Yan saw that his cold face was no longer the same as before, so he smiled at him as a response. It's just that my heart is getting more and more confused. A powerful loose cultivator, a disciple of a cultivator family, protects a mortal. What is this strange combination going to do? She suddenly regretted her decision to go with her.

   Mrs. Xu acted very resolutely. After noon, they packed all their luggage. Mrs. Huayang sat in a very luxurious carriage. The strange thing was that Mrs. Xu also sat in the same carriage with her. Mrs. Xu was carrying a long package behind her, and the two sat opposite each other in the carriage, not speaking.

   There is also a carriage, which is ridden by several maids. Every once in a while, one person takes turns to serve the carriage in front. The rest Kuang Zhen and Qing Yangzi both rode. As for Gu Yan, she was originally going to ask her to take a ride, but since she was disguised as a man, she declined and rode a horse and followed behind the carriage.

   Everyone's footsteps were very fast. After three days of walking, they had already walked more than half of the distance. On this day, they had already seen the branch of Tianmu Mountain. Follow this mountain range to the northwest for another two days, and you will reach Yunyang City. For the past two days, they have been picking up the small roads and avoiding the main roads, so everyone seems to be in the dust.

   Mrs. Xu got out of the car, looked at the sky, and said, "Hurry up again, I remember there is a place in the mountains where you can rest."

   In the past few days, everyone has been walking on the trails in the mountains. Mrs. Xu is actually very familiar with the paths. He knows all about the rough and difficult roads, where there is water, where to rest, and avoid wild animals. Gu Yan was very strange. She had been with Kuang Zhen for a few days, and felt that this person was cold-hearted and not difficult, so she found an opportunity to ask Kuang Zhen for advice.

   Kuang Zhen glanced at her and said, "Senior Xu originally came from Tianmu Mountain, and later became a loose cultivator. He is not only in the territory of Yue, but even cultivators in other places have heard of his name."

   "Oh?" Gu Yan was a little curious. After all, this Madam Xu was only a cultivator in the Qi refining stage, or a loose cultivator. How could she achieve such a great reputation? Kuang Zhen saw her doubts and said, "He is an artifact refiner!"

In the world of immortality, such as alchemy, alchemy, formation, and talisman, they are all side doors. Immortal cultivators have to pursue longevity and the Dao within a limited lifespan. For each of these things, it takes countless energy. , it is often difficult to juggle, and only those who are exceptionally gifted will focus on these things. In today's world, a good craftsman is very rare.

Kuang Zhen said: "Senior Xu's technique of refining weapons is very unique, especially his sword refining. Even some disciples of some sects will ask him for help. You don't think his cultivation is not very high, but he has extensive exchanges and friends all over the world. , so most people would not dare to offend him."

  Gu Yan nodded, she was just curious and didn't want to provoke the strange looking man, so it's okay to hear it. It's just that the behavior of this group of people is very strange, as if there is a secret hidden from her, which makes her feel a little annoyed.

  The group entered the mountain and walked a long way along the path, when it was completely dark. Everyone set up a few tents here, each of them a room, and the maids crowded in one room. Gu Yan entered her tent, meditated cross-legged, and breathed.

  The surrounding was pitch-black silence, Gu Yan slowly swallowed the vitality between heaven and earth. Tianmu Mountain is really a spiritual vein. After she entered here, she clearly felt that the spiritual energy was much stronger than the outside world. If you go deep into the spiritual veins in Tianmu Mountain, I don't know how good it will be. Gu Yan sighed, this is just thinking about it, those spiritual veins are controlled by major sects, how can they be easily given to others?

   She has been cultivating hard for four years, but she can only barely reach the first level of qi refining. When she came out this time, all the monks she saw were more powerful than herself, which made her joy that she had just finished qi refining has vanished.

  Gu Yan meditated for two hours, feeling refreshed and stood up. When she walked outside, she saw that there was silence, only birds flew through the air occasionally. She looked around and suddenly felt a little strange.

   After they entered Tianmu Mountain, all they saw were lush trees, but it was bare. She thought about it carefully. When she first set up camp, there seemed to be a few trees on the stone platform over there. Why are they gone now? Her nerves suddenly tense up!

   Although Gu Yan is young, she has lived alone for several years and has a strong sense of self-protection. She tightly pressed the dagger around her waist with her hand, and the spiritual energy in her whole body gathered, and her spirit adjusted to the highest point. She walked gently to the edge of Kuang Zhen's tent, and whispered, "Brother Kuang, Brother Kuang!"

   As soon as she said her words, she felt the ground vibrate suddenly, and then countless fine lines cracked open, and green vines gushed out one by one, almost covering the ground. Those vines were about the size of a thumb, as if they were spiritual, they suddenly wrapped around Gu Yan's feet.

   Gu Yan shouted loudly: "An enemy is coming!" Then he slashed down with a heavy sword. But her sword was only ordinary iron, and it slashed on the vine, making a sound like metal clashing, and it could not cut it. Gu Yan looked at the blade again, and several gaps the size of a grain of rice had been broken.

The vines in the ground were still entangled, Gu Yan pinched a magic trick, and with a slight blow on his lips, a bluish-white flame rose from his fingers, and then he flicked his fingers, and a ball of fire the size of a bean moved towards him. Fly below.

   Those vines seemed to be afraid of these fireballs, slowly retreating in fear. At this time, everyone was awakened by her voice. They tore out the tents. Seeing her standing outside his tent, Kuang Zhen was a little surprised and looked at her with strange eyes.

  Gu Yan didn't care to say anything else, pointed to the vines on the ground and said, "Everyone be careful!"

Kuang Zhen said indifferently: "It turns out to be the iron wire vine. Be careful, it may bite." He took out a magic bag from his arms, and gently pointed it with his hand, and a small handle flew out of it. The sword, glowing with a blue glow, circled in mid-air, and those iron vines were slashed to pieces by the sword.
