Chen Xiao was a Feng Shui master before his death. He changed his fate to save his master, but died of old age.
When he opened his eyes, he came to a world of immortal cultivation where there...
The heavy mysterious spirit tea made by Xi Yunting himself was made by killing and frying with bare hands. Therefore, he was not lying when he said that he had experience in controlling the fire element, but it was the first time he used it in cooking. If it weren't for Chen Xiao, Xi Yunting might never have thought of using this special technique to fry bird eggs.
Xi Yunting looked calm, but he was actually a little nervous. He used his mental power to monitor the temperature. When the eggs were half cooked, he took a pinch of fine salt from the seasonings on the side and sprinkled it evenly on the surface of the eggs. After sprinkling the fine salt, he sprinkled a thin layer of sesame seeds. The aroma of sesame seeds mixed with the aroma of eggs was particularly appetizing when roasted at high temperature.
Chen Xiao slid his throat in a cowardly manner and watched eagerly. When Xi Yunting turned his palm, the whole ripe bird egg fell directly into a wide-mouthed shallow basin.
Xi Yunting slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and the heat on his palms dissipated. He said, "Brother Xiao, give it a try. This is my first time trying it, so please forgive me if it's not good."
Chen Xiao couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and pick up the fried egg. He put it in his mouth and was immediately conquered by the flexible texture and tender taste. Coupled with the perfect saltiness and the strong aroma of sesame, Chen Xiao said confidently: "This is the most delicious fried egg I have ever eaten! Brother, you are so talented. You can make such a delicious fried egg for the first time."
Xi Yunting pursed his lips and smiled: "As long as Xiaodi likes it."
He felt relieved and immediately fried all the remaining eggs without stopping. He kept trying until he found a combination of maturity and seasoning that Chen Xiao liked best.
He ate ten bird eggs in one go. Even though they were two sizes smaller than chicken eggs, Chen Xiao was already about 70% full.
At this time, the pot of seafood soup was boiling. Chen Xiao scooped a bowl with a spoon. The soup without salt and only with green onion and ginger was very fresh and it was quite successful.
Chen Xiao was full after eating only a little bit, and the rest was eaten by Xi Yunting. The dinner that day was very interesting. Neither of them ate much of what they cooked, and let the other's cooking fill their stomachs.
There were no ferocious beasts in the Yumen Water Realm, and there were many cultivators camping on the island. Xi Yunting did not arrange a night watch with Chen Xiao that night, and directly set up an early warning barrier. The two of them each laid a blanket in the tent to rest.
The next day, Xi Yunting went for morning exercise, while Chen Xiao added some rice to the leftover soup from yesterday to make porridge for breakfast.
The sun rises early on the island, and around seven or eight o'clock, you can feel the warmth of the sun shining on your body. Chen Xiao simply pulled out a blanket from the tent and spread it on the beach, took off his shirt, rolled up his pants, and lay down to sunbathe.
This trip was like a vacation to Chen Xiao. He hadn't felt so relaxed for a long time. He stretched out his limbs, and every bone in his body was so comfortable that it made him want to groan.
He didn't care what the practitioners passing by thought of his actions. He wanted to enjoy himself when he should, and not compromise himself for the sake of other people's opinions.
When Xi Yunting came back, he saw Xiaodi lying on the blanket. He walked over and asked in confusion: "Xiaodi, what are you doing?"
Chen Xiao turned his head to look at him: "I'm basking in the sun... The sun and stars make me feel warm and comfortable. It's good to bask in this sun more. It can strengthen bones and improve physical fitness."
Xi Yunting was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say. There was no such thing as sunbathing in the Heaven Realm World. It was probably a custom from Xiaodi's previous life. He thought for a moment and said, "The sun in Taizhen is quite bright and can burn your skin if you are not careful. Xiaodi needs to be careful."
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "I know. It's just that the ultraviolet rays are not too strong at this moment, so I sunbathe for a while. I got up when my brother came back."
After breakfast, Chen Xiao packed up the blankets, tents, pots, etc. Xi Yunting erected a wooden stake near the fire pit to indicate that it was owned by someone else, so that others would not come here again.
Chen Xiao asked Xi Yunting: "Where are we going today?"
Xi Yunting thought for a moment and said, "Let's go deeper into Yumen and take a look." It had been many years since Xi Yunting last came here. He remembered that there were rare and precious herbs deep in Yumen, as well as a cave that was not too big.
Chen Xiao was thinking about the plump sea fish and crabs crawling around in that area. Hearing this, he immediately nodded in agreement: "Okay."
The two entered the water again and swam for more than an hour before they arrived near the fish gate. Chen Xiao touched the seaweed forest with ease. Xi Yunting looked at him inquiringly, Chen Xiao nodded, and the two of them went into the seaweed forest.
Chen Xiao took out his arrow and shot at the fish that was nimbly swimming in the seaweed. The fish had probably never encountered a human hunter before, so Chen Xiao succeeded in one shot.
The fish that was shot by an arrow slowly sank to the bottom of the sea. Chen Xiao swam over quickly and grabbed the fish. At this time, a huge lobster that was half a person's height came into view, which immediately excited Chen Xiao.
This was the first time he had seen such a big lobster. It must have grown for at least a hundred years. Without taking down the chain net, Chen Xiao adjusted the arrow in his hand and shot at the lobster.
The lobster was much more alert than the sea fish, and with its thick round shell, the arrow was deflected to the side. The lobster was originally aggressive, and Chen Xiao's attack immediately angered it. The lobster paddled its legs aggressively and quickly clamped towards Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao didn't dare to be careless. He knew how powerful the lobster's claws were. If he was touched by it, he would suffer a broken bone at best and die at worst.
He threw away the fish arrow in his hand, replaced it with a water arrow, and immediately shot it at the lobster's head.
The water arrow hit the lobster's head hard, causing it to pause as it rushed over. Chen Xiao immediately shot another arrow, and the second water arrow hit the lobster's chest, causing it to fall backwards with its back tilted. Then Chen Xiao aimed his third arrow at the lobster's belly, making a big hole in it.
Chen Xiao didn't feel very happy because he found that the lobster was only seriously injured and it was not dead yet. Xi Yunting had been protecting him nearby. Seeing that he seemed to be hesitant, he directly cast a metal essence spell and penetrated the lobster's skull.
Chen Xiao went over and picked up the lobster's body. The lobster was completely unrecognizable, but most of its body was still intact. He didn't dislike it and stuffed it directly into the storage box.
Only then did he realize that the half-human-high lobster should be considered a beast-level aquatic creature in the water realm. And he had no other means of attack except water arrows and Zhengge. The paper talisman was even weaker than the fire element in the water, and it was soaked and rotten when taken out.
After having a sense of crisis, Chen Xiao put away his thoughts on playing. He held the water arrow in one hand and the spear gun in the other, and also put Zhengge on his waist.
After that, he no longer chased after sea fish or lobsters. He followed Xi Yunting obediently and swam towards the deep end of the fish gate.
Passing through the dense seaweed forest, visibility became increasingly low. The water was not very clear, and the mud and gravel on the seabed were stirred up by the creatures living on the seabed, making it look gray.
Xi Yunting swam beside Chen Xiao, hesitated for a moment, then reached out and held one of his hands. He directly transmitted his voice into his ears and said, "Brother Xiao, the view ahead is unclear, let me lead you forward."
Chen Xiao looked at him in surprise. This was the first time he had received someone's voice transmission, which made him feel very curious. Xi Yunting asked again, and Chen Xiao nodded. He put away the water arrow in his hand and held Xi Yunting's hand.
As for Xi Yunting, he knew that Chen Xiao could not transmit sound, so he would not use this method unless it was absolutely necessary.
Carefully holding Chen Xiao's hand, Xi Yunting led him to swim towards the cave in his memory. There was a large reef at the entrance of Yumen Water Realm, and not many people knew that there was an entrance to a cave in the gap between the reefs.
This cave leads to a fairly large underwater cave, in which grow some aquatic spiritual plants and a rare fish that can glow by itself.
Even in his previous life, Chen Xiao had never seen such a small fish that glowed in the dark. Not to mention that this kind of fish lived in groups, and a large group of them huddled together, at first glance they looked like a field of stars.
These glowing fish swam around in the cave, as agile and lively as an elf. There was no regular pattern in their movement, sometimes heading east, sometimes west, forming bizarre and strange patterns.
Chen Xiao excitedly held Xi Yunting's hand tightly, with bubbles coming out of his mouth. If he couldn't speak at this moment, he really wanted to praise him with all his might.
Xi Yunting tilted his head and looked at him. The light emitted by the school of fish allowed him to see Chen Xiao's happy expression at the moment, which made him happier than any beautiful scenery.
Chen Xiao pulled his hand, and he wanted to go closer to take a look. Xi Yunting would of course obey his wishes, and the two of them slowly swam closer to the school of fish. Unfortunately, these fish were very disrespectful and disappeared immediately after being startled.
Chen Xiao was shocked. Xi Yunting patted his hand to comfort him and said to him, "These fish should have escaped to another connected cave."
After saying that, Xi Yunting took Chen Xiao and sank down. There was a dark hole at the bottom of the cave. If Xi Yunting had not been there once before, it would have been difficult to find.
Without the glowing fish, the cave was completely dark. Chen Xiao's night vision was not as good as Xi Yunting's, so he couldn't see anything at all. The endless darkness around him made him feel like something was lurking and ready to pounce at him at any time.
Chen Xiao always had a bad feeling. He wanted to tell Xi Yunting to forget it, but he couldn't convey his meaning in the sea. He pulled Xi Yunting's hand, but he was held tightly. In desperation, Chen Xiao had to follow Xi Yunting and continue forward.
They were swimming towards another cave when they saw a flash of light in front of their eyes. A large group of glowing fish rushed towards them.
Chen Xiao was shocked and broke free from Xi Yunting's hand. The fish rushed to his body and face. Chen Xiao had to protect his face with his hands, and soon his arms were hurt by the fish.
"Brother Xiao!!!" Xi Yunting's shocked and anxious voice came to his ears. Chen Xiao didn't dare to put down his hand to see where he was. He had to wave the arm holding the spear gun, "Don't move——"
However, the warning came too late. Before Chen Xiao could react, his waist tightened, and after a dizzy spell, he was dragged away.
