  The first update is sent, and there are two more updates coming next, please vote and encourage!

  Kunlun Sect is one of the three major Taoist schools in the world, known as "Worldly Kunlun". It excels at Qimen Fa Zhou and Jiugong Dunjia. Yin Ning inherited the Taoist tradition of "Yiye Zhikui" from Kunlun, and learned multiple Taoist skills from "Kunlun Yuqing Fa Zhou", then taught a "Tutun Shu" to Xiaoyi according to his aptitude.

  The mouse demon called itself "Dǎ Dòng Lǎo Zǔ", and it was naturally good at digging holes and excavating mud. Together with the "Earth Escape Technique", they were a perfect match, and it learned very quickly, mastering the basic skills in just one night.

  Of course, there is also the reason for Yining's careful guidance.

  Learning the way has a shortcut, having a master to enlighten you at the beginning is much better than searching alone. That "Concealment Technique", Xiaoyi had been studying hard for a long time but still hasn't grasped even the basics, so last night I simply handed over the secret manual to Yining, letting my sister learn it first and then teach me afterwards.

  Hei Shan Wei and his men arrived at Maple Mountain for a hunt, with their formation, they definitely wouldn't be satisfied with hunting rabbits and sparrows on the front mountain, they would absolutely enter the back mountain to hunt down ferocious large wild beasts.

  It is very likely that it will have some adverse impact on the baby, and if they are not careful, if they find out about the baby, the consequences will be even more unbearable.

  Recalling the scene of secretly glancing at those soldiers earlier, Xiao Yi couldn't help but feel a few parts of fear - those black-shirted guards, each with a robust physique, possessing martial arts skills, and an aura that seemed to pierce the sky. Facing them, the mouse demon naturally felt a chill in its heart, let alone confronting them head-on. The yin spirit didn't dare to come out, fearing that as soon as it left its shell, it would immediately be dispersed and shattered by the strong blood energy.

  So, Chen Jianchen ordered it to hurry on the road and return to Fengshan ahead of schedule. He asked Yining to temporarily leave Wusong Cave and avoid it for a while.

  Pfft!

  Xiao Yi broke out of the ground, opened his mouth and panted heavily - after all, he hadn't learned the earth escape technique for a long time, and some of the tricks weren't mastered yet. Moreover, casting spells requires consuming spiritual power. The mouse demon's own spiritual power was not thick enough, so after using the earth escape technique for a certain period of time, it had to stick its head out to rest for a while, and also take a look at where it was, whether it had escaped in the wrong direction.

  Meow!

  Suddenly a cat's cry rang out beside his ear, startling the mouse demon into a jump.

  That was a very majestic domestic cat, originally nestling at the edge of the house and dozing off, but unexpectedly, a grayish-white strange mouse suddenly appeared in front of it, looking very bizarre, with a bunch of grass on its head.

  Meow!

  When the cat saw the mouse, it suddenly became very excited, jumped up and pounced over, wanting to catch the little mouse and play with it cruelly.

  "Looking for death!"

  The mouse demon suddenly spoke in human language, its small paws quickly grasping a stone on the ground and fiercely throwing it over.

  Meow!

  The house cat was heavily hit on the forehead by a stone, its head cracked and bleeding, it was shocked and stopped immediately. Its two green bean-like eyes met with those of the mouse spirit, and two faint lights shot into its heart, scaring all the hairs on its body to stand on end, its four legs softened, and it lay prostrate on the ground, making a low humming noise in its throat, as if begging for mercy.

  Xiao Yi patted his paw with satisfaction, a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly jumped onto the cat's back, issuing an order. The cat dared not disobey, carrying the mouse demon swiftly outside.

  "What is that?"

  At this moment, a villager happened to pass by and was shocked to see the scene. He dropped his carrying pole on the ground and rubbed his eyes with both hands: A cat is carrying a mouse, I'm not seeing things, am I?

  Before he could open his eyes again, the cat and mouse had long gone their separate ways.

  Xiao Yi rides on the neck of a domestic cat, standing upright, with one small paw grasping the cat's ear, as if riding a horse, spirited and refreshing.

  It just made a sudden earth escape, and arrived at Jingyang Village. Now, due to insufficient recovery of his magical powers, he can't use the earth escape technique again, so he caught a cat as a "strong assistant" and used it as a mount to ride up the mountain, looking very majestic.

  That cat in the house was secretly crying out in distress, vowing that from now on, whenever it saw a mouse, it would immediately turn around and walk away, even if it meant letting it go without catching it.

  A cat and a mouse, regardless of the road conditions, took the nearest shortcut, so they soon arrived at the foot of Maple Mountain. At this time, the cat was exhausted and panting heavily.

  The mouse demon jumped down, patted its buttocks and shouted: "Little guy, you can go back now. Wait for old ancestor to finish this busy period, then I'll go find you to play again."

  The house cat, like a mighty decree, ignores the exhaustion and takes off in a flash, having already made up its mind: no matter how far it runs, it will not be a house cat again, nor will it hold onto an iron rice bowl; it will become a stray cat and wander off, see if you can still find me...

  Xiao Yi didn't stop, he had found his direction, and with a whoosh, he burrowed into the mud once again.

  Wow!

  But this time it didn't run for long before having to emerge in the woods, with a big "bump" on its small forehead, muttering and scolding: "Forgot about the terrain, too many tree roots and rocks, can't escape at all, bad luck!"

  Swinging his head, he had no choice but to move his small body jumping and running.

  ……

  Knock knock knock!

  Eighteen riders galloped over and arrived at the foot of Maple Mountain.

  At this time, Wu Wencai had already been stunned and couldn't find his bearings, was lifted off the horse by a black-shirted guard, could barely stand steadily, and hurriedly found a place to sit down with a thud.

  Zhou Tongling glanced at him and said, "Wu Gongzi, is this mountain the one you mentioned as Fengshan?"

  Wu Wenzai took a few deep breaths and drank some water before answering: "That's right."

  Zhou looked around and nodded in satisfaction: "This mountain stretches for several miles, majestic and towering, indeed it has some grandeur. Master, what do you think?"

  That empty great master is also a good rider, after a gallop, not even panting slightly, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the mountain with an attitude more serious than Zhou Tong's. After a while, he said: "Not bad, this mountain has a ups and downs shape, as if there is a divine rhyme in it, it is very likely to have a spiritual vein."

  Zhou Tongling burst out laughing: "Master, if there really is a spiritual vein in the mountain, have you decided to open the mountain and establish a temple?"

  "Of course, it's naturally difficult to find the spiritual pulse, how can we give up?"

  Zhou Tongling's mouth made a hissing sound: "No wonder your temples are always built deep in the mountains, it turns out there is this kind of reason behind it. Never mind, anyway, the emperor has an edict, Master can find the governor to take care of the temple construction. With one order, tens of thousands of laborers will come over to start work, and we won't be afraid of the high mountains and dense forests."

  He then turned to Wu Wenchang and said: "Young Master Wu, are you still going into the mountains?"

  Wu Wencai hastily waved his hand and declined, saying: "Commander, I'm afraid my body can't take the turmoil, let me just stay outside to watch the horses."

  Zhou Tongling smiled and didn't force the issue, leaving two black-shirted guards behind. He then placed the eighteen fine horses in a small grove at the foot of the mountain to graze, while he and Kong Daoshi led the remaining thirteen black-shirted guards to string their strong bows and go hunting up the mountain.

  They went into the mountains, basically not staying in the front mountain, and directly going deep into the mountains to shoot and kill leopards, tigers and other ferocious beasts, only then can they have a good time.
