Chapter 1681
Huo Jilin looked serious, "Don't be distracted, stay alert."
Just then, a sinister laugh suddenly came.
"Hahaha..."
Everyone was shocked, and Hu Bayi shouted, "Who is it?"
A black shadow slowly walked out of the woods, "You guys who don't know your own strength, dare to ruin my good deeds."
Huo Jilin shouted, "Who are you? How dare you play tricks here!"
The black shadow sneered, "I am the messenger of darkness, you can't stop the coming of darkness."
After that, the black shadow launched an attack, and a dark force attacked everyone.
Huo Jilin stepped forward and used Taoism to fight against it.
"Everyone, come together!" He shouted loudly.
Hu Bayi and other disciples also used their own magic and launched a fierce battle with the black shadow.
"Humph, you think you can compete with me?" The black shadow said disdainfully.
Hu Bayi angrily said, "Don't be so arrogant here, I will definitely take you down today!"
With the concerted efforts of everyone, the black shadow gradually lost the upper hand.
"Damn it, I won't let you go!" Seeing that the situation was not good, the black shadow wanted to escape.
How could Huo Jilin let him do as he wished, "Want to leave? It's not that easy!"
Huo Jilin used a powerful sealing technique to trap the black shadow in place.
"Tell me, what is your purpose?" Huo Jilin asked.
The black shadow gritted his teeth, "You wait, the master will avenge me."
Hu Bayi said, "Don't talk nonsense with him, take him back and hand him over to the elders for disposal."
Everyone took the black shadow back to the holy land. After the elders interrogated him, they learned more about the conspiracy of the dark forces.
The elder said to Huo Jilin: "Thanks to you, we discovered the movement of this dark force in time. But next, the challenges we face will be more severe."
Huo Jilin said firmly: "Elder, we are ready. No matter how difficult it is, we will protect the holy land and the peace of the world."
Hu Bayi also said: "That's right, evil cannot prevail over justice, we will definitely defeat the darkness!"
Huo Jilin ended a series of adventures and challenges and returned to Tianxiang Mountain.
The breeze on the mountain blew gently, bringing a hint of tranquility and peace.
However, the waves in his heart did not subside. The experience in the cyclic tomb and the first confrontation with the dark forces were still lingering in his heart.
On this day, the sun shone on the glazed tiles of the palace, reflecting colorful light. Huo Jilin was meditating alone in the courtyard, and suddenly a disciple ran over in a hurry.
"Brother Huo, the deputy palace master invites you to go to his bedroom immediately." The disciple's tone was full of awe and envy.
Huo Jilin was slightly startled, and couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "The deputy palace master is looking for me? What could it be?" Although he was full of doubts, he still didn't dare to neglect it. He tidied his clothes and walked towards the deputy palace master's bedroom.
When he came to the door of the bedroom, Huo Jilin took a deep breath and knocked on the door gently.
"Come in." The steady and majestic voice of the deputy palace master came from inside.
Huo Jilin pushed the door open and saw the deputy palace master sitting on a large carved chair, looking at him deeply.
"Disciple Huo Jilin, I pay my respects to the deputy palace master." Huo Jilin saluted respectfully.
The deputy palace master nodded slightly, motioned him to stand up, and then looked him up and down.
"Huo Jilin, you have shown extraordinary talent and courage in your recent performances." The deputy palace master said slowly, his voice full of praise.
Huo Jilin said quickly, "Thank you for the praise, Deputy Palace Master. I just did my duty."
The Deputy Palace Master smiled slightly, "I asked you to come here today because I have an opportunity to give you."
Huo Jilin was delighted, but his face remained calm, "Please let me know, Deputy Palace Master."
The Deputy Palace Master stood up and walked to Huo Jilin, "I am going to teach you a magical ancient power called Sky-peeking Skill! This skill is powerful. If you can practice it successfully, it will surely make your strength reach a higher level."
Huo Jilin was very excited when he heard it, "Deputy Palace Master, this... This is really too flattering for me."
At this time, the news somehow spread on Tianxiang Mountain. Many disciples gathered outside the palace, whispering and discussing.
"I heard that the Deputy Palace Master wanted to pass the Sky-peeking Skill to Huo Jilin. This is too partial." A disciple said jealously.
"That's right, why should it be him?" Another disciple echoed.
"Hmph, who let them have the ability? We can only envy them." An older disciple sighed helplessly.
In the bedroom, the deputy palace master seemed to hear the discussion outside, and his face darkened, "Huo Jilin, this skill is extraordinary. You must practice well and don't let me down."
Huo JilinLin nodded heavily, "Don't worry, Deputy Palace Master, I will do my best and live up to my mission."
The Deputy Palace Master smiled with satisfaction, and then began to teach Huo Jilin the essentials and secrets of the Sky-peeking Skill.
"This Sky-peeking Skill is a great supernatural power from ancient times. When practicing, you need to have no distractions and feel the subtle changes between heaven and earth..." The Deputy Palace Master said carefully, Huo Jilin listened carefully and nodded from time to time.
After the teaching, the Deputy Palace Master said: "Go back and understand it well, and ask me if you don't understand anything."
"Thank you, Deputy Palace Master, I'll take my leave." Huo Jilin bowed again and left the palace.
As soon as he went out, he was surrounded by a group of disciples.
"Huo Jilin, you are really lucky." A disciple said sourly.
Huo Jilin smiled and said, "This is also the love of the deputy palace master. Brothers, please give me more guidance in the future."
"Hmph, guidance? Now that you have obtained the Sky-peeking Skill, do you still need our guidance?" Another disciple said dissatisfiedly.
Huo Jilin's face straightened, "We are all disciples of Tianxiang Mountain. We should support each other and make progress together. I, Huo Jilin, will never forget you just because I have obtained a skill."
After hearing this, some people looked ashamed, while others remained silent.
Huo Jilin ignored them and turned to walk towards his residence. Along the way, he couldn't calm down for a long time. "What is so magical about this Sky-peeking Skill? I must master it as soon as possible and live up to the expectations of the deputy palace master." He swore secretly.
After returning to his residence, Huo Jilin immediately began to practice according to the method taught by the deputy palace master. However, the practice of this Sky-peeking Skill was not smooth sailing, and he encountered one problem after another.
"What is going on? Why can't I enter that realm?" Huo Jilin frowned, feeling irritated.
Just when he wanted to give up, the words of the deputy palace master rang in his ears: "The way of cultivation is to persist, and you must not give up halfway."
Huo Jilin took a deep breath, calmed down, readjusted his state, and continued to cultivate.
However, he didn't know that many of the disciples in the Tianxiang Holy Land had already envied and hated him, and were ready to plot against him in secret!
