Chapter 351 Farewell

Chapter 351 Farewell
I hadn’t even thought that there might be a dungeon in Dazhu Peak.

When I walked to the bamboo forest at the back of the mountain and looked at the huge rock protruding from the forest, I finally understood.

The stone door of the dungeon was very heavy, and it required the cultivation level of the Upper Qing Realm to move the stone door. After Zhang Xiaofan and Song Daren moved the door open, they discovered that the door was more than two meters thick.

The stone is a specialty of Dazhu Peak. It is heavy and ponderous, and even an ordinary Shangqing cultivator may not be able to move it.

The dungeon was cleaned very cleanly, with ventilation holes and long-lasting lights. It was not dark, but rather cool, making it a good place for retreat.

There are several stone chambers on both sides. The one at the end of the corridor is the largest. At a glance, it is about 40 square meters and has everything you need.

There was sunlight shining down from above, landing on the ground somewhere in the room.

Murong Ji exhaled slowly and walked in automatically. Watching the eldest brother lock the door, Murong Ji bowed respectfully to Su Ru.

Afterwards, he sat cross-legged on the bed alone, meditating to heal his injuries.

Everyone left the dungeon, but Lu Xueqi was not in a hurry to leave. She hesitated for a moment and asked, "Murong Ji, will you blame me?"

Murong Ji suddenly laughed, "You are my wife, why would I blame you?"

"I blame you for not standing with me."

Murong Ji slowly stopped smiling, "To be honest, a little bit. Actually, I can't laugh. Not losing my composure is my best effort."

"I'm sorry, although evil spirit can be used for cultivation, I have also cultivated it. But the evil spirit of the Zhuxian Sword and the evil spirit of the Beast God are both extraordinary."

Lu Xueqi hesitated for a moment and continued, "I don't want the day when my master asks me to go down the mountain to hunt you down."

"I understand. The sect's rules and moral principles are what you insist on. It's a good thing to insist on something. I just feel a little uncomfortable, but I don't hate you. If you don't do this, I will..."

Murong Ji paused and did not continue speaking.

If Lu Xueqi could really tolerate him infinitely, then that would be it. He was just good-looking. For Murong Ji, isn't it easy to have both beauty and wealth?

What attracted him most was Lu Xueqi's cold and stubborn character. He felt an inexplicable sense of conquest and gradually fell for her, wishing he could eat her alive.

The premise of letting your nature run wild and expressing yourself sexually is that you won't get lost in it.

For example, you practice cultivation because you want revenge, and finally, when you have status and fame, you find that revenge becomes unimportant and instead you have to find ways to maintain your status and fame.

It goes against the original purpose, and even worse, it becomes a collusion with the original enemy.

If you don't stick to your bottom line, you don't know how far to indulge yourself and what will happen in the end.

Lu Xueqi didn't say anything else and remained silent for a long time. She was not stupid and could see many things clearly, but now between the two of them... no matter whether Murong Ji cared or not, she felt very guilty.

"I am leaving."

"Next time you come back, bring me some books."

"it is good."

Looking at Lu Xueqi's receding back, Murong Ji slowly exhaled. He glanced at the environment of the dungeon. If he wanted to run, this place would not stop him.

If there is a ban, that is another matter.

Suddenly, he remembered the witchcraft restriction that suppressed the Beast God in the Demon-Suppressing Cave. Murong Ji's eyes lit up. He thought that when he had nothing to do, he could study these things.

He calmed down, adjusted his state, and fought with Daoxuan, which benefited him a lot.

In the past few years, he has learned and collected a lot of skills, but his work is too tight and he has little time to organize and digest them. Now is an opportunity.

Outside the dungeon.

After Su Ru saw Lu Xueqi coming out, she signaled Song Daren and Zhang Xiaofan to seal the dungeon. Then she glanced at the disciples.

"Old Seven may have been corrupted by evil spirits. From now on, Da Ren will come to deliver meals. Remember to bring someone to wait outside. Be careful."

"Yes, Master Wife!"

As night fell, Lu Xueqi packed up the books in Murong Ji's room, took her toiletries and a change of clothes, and headed towards the back mountain of Dazhu Peak.

When Murong Ji heard the noise, he thought it was his senior brother coming to bring him dinner. When he looked up, he saw Lu Xueqi.

"Xueqi, you..."

Why are you here? Before he could even say this, Murong Ji suddenly felt a little strange and simply kept silent.

Afterwards, he watched quietly as Lu Xueqi cleaned up a stone chamber next door and moved in.

"Is this your solution?"

Lu Xueqi did not say anything, but quietly cleaned up the inside of the stone chamber, performed some magic, and flushed it again with water.

The two of them stayed there. Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, a few days had passed.

Replacing the abbot of a sect is a tedious but solemn matter. Once it is planned, it becomes extremely tedious and complicated.

Fortunately, there were few people and little trouble in Dazhu Peak. Besides, Qingyun Sect was in a precarious situation at that time, and no one would care about these trivial matters.

When the eldest senior brother came to deliver food, Murong Ji saw the dark blue Taoist robe on him and the seven-star crown on his head, and realized that he had officially become the abbot.

"Big Brother, congratulations."

Hearing Murong Ji's voice, Lu Xueqi came out of the stone chamber, looked at Song Daren and said coldly: "Senior Brother Song, congratulations."

Song Daren smiled shyly and put two food boxes in front of the door. "Let's eat first."

Murong Ji nodded and suddenly asked, "Big Brother, is Master's Wife okay?"

Song Daren nodded and said, "Master's wife has been in good condition these days, but..." The sudden pause made Song Daren's face serious.

He slowed down the topic and asked, "Seventh Junior Brother, how are you now?"

Murong Ji placed the food for the two on a stone table, "Very good, the injury recovered quickly, now I can probably compete with Ling Zun in physical strength."

Song Daren's expression suddenly became serious, and he looked at Murong Ji seriously, "Seventh Brother, don't be careless, I heard from Master's Wife that..."

"The evil spirit of the Zhu Xian Sword is different from other evil spirits. For us, it is not a big deal if the evil spirit enters the body. It will just delay our cultivation for a few years."

"Master's wife said that the evil spirit of the Immortal Execution Sword is extremely difficult to remove. This is a matter of life and death, so we must not be careless!"

Murong Ji nodded, "I know, Big Brother."

After Song Daren left, Murong Ji checked his body again. Only when he was sure that there was nothing abnormal did he slowly exhale.

A few days later, Lu Xueqi was called away. Shuiyue had already begun to delegate power gradually. Xiaozhu Peak was different from Dazhu Peak. There were many people and many things to deal with, and she had a lot to deal with.

Sometimes, Lu Xueqi would bring things to the dungeon to deal with them. He also looked through them and discovered that Xiaozhu Peak had quite a lot of assets.

Apart from other things, the Yunjin alone is enough to make up one and a half Shanhai Gardens. There are also various handicrafts, women's clothes, inn meals and so on.

Think about Dazhu Peak again, it was really poor.

Looking at Xiaozhufeng's business structure, he also had some ideas in his mind.

The days passed quickly in the dungeon. Murong Ji concentrated on understanding what he had learned. Before he came to his senses, he had already lived in the dungeon for a month.

Looking through the 'skylight' above my head and seeing the sky outside, I knew that Lu Xueqi would not come over tonight.

He regained his mind, looked at the written scripture in front of him, and flipped through it casually.

Anyone who practices meditation, if he can do this, use the Vajra Contemplation Wisdom to cleanse the emptiness of sentient beings, eliminate the knowledge of annihilation and permanence, realize the original possession of the One Truth, and realize that all delusions are originally empty. Then, the mind of the five aggregates of delusion will be pure in nature, which is the original Tathagata storehouse, the wonderful true nature!
He used to read the Diamond Samadhi Sutra, a scripture that explains the methods of practicing the Buddhist Samadhi, for entertainment, but now when he read it again, he found it to have a different meaning.

Practicing martial arts and cultivating immortality are two completely different concepts. However, immortality and martial arts are inseparable, especially for a Quanzhen Taoist like him.

"Clang clang."

A sound rang out, and Murong Ji came back to his senses, and he knew that it was the eldest brother who came to deliver the food. "Eldest brother, put it there first, I will eat it later."

After waiting for a while and not hearing any answer from the eldest senior brother, he put down the book in his hand, turned around and looked, and was shocked. It was the master's wife!
Murong Ji immediately stood up and bowed to Su Ru, "Disciple greets Master's wife."

Su Ru placed the lunch box on Murong Ji's desk and looked around. The huge stone room was somewhat crowded due to the bookshelves.

"This month has been okay." After taking a quick look around, Su Ru sat in Murong Ji's previous seat and casually flipped through what he was reading.

"My dear Master, everything is fine. This is a good opportunity for me to sort out some things..."

Su Ru's expression changed, and she said in a heavy tone: "I asked you to retreat, not to let you organize your things, but to check yourself and get rid of the evil spirits!"

Murong Ji's heart skipped a beat. "Master's wife, please calm down. I have done my best to get rid of the evil spirit."

Su Ru's face was gloomy, her brows furrowed, and she said in a deep voice: "Seventh Brother, you have always been smart. You can see the whole picture of many things just by looking at the clues."

"Do you think that such a huge Qingyun Sect has no way to get rid of evil spirits?" Su Ru's voice became increasingly sharp, already sounding like a reprimand.

"All the past leaders who have used the Immortal Execution Sword have tried their best to eliminate the evil spirit. There are also records in the sect that several trusted elders have worked together to eliminate the evil spirit, but what happened in the end?!"

"Everyone who has used the Immortal Execution Sword eventually became possessed by a demon! The longest one who has persisted is only five years. I want you to stay in seclusion for ten years, and then you will know whether you have become possessed by a demon or not."

Su Ru's voice hit Murong Ji's heart like a heavy hammer, causing him to ponder. If this was really the case, he was probably doomed...

"The Immortal Execution Sword has boundless power. With the spiritual energy accumulated in Qingyun Mountain for ten thousand years, it is even more powerful. If a wild grass can live for ten thousand years, it will be a great demon king."

"Why do you think that with just twenty years of cultivation, you can defeat something that has lived for tens of thousands of years!"
