In the dead of night, a bright moon shone on the retirement village.
Wu Xiao was wide awake, leaning against the bed.
Her black hair fell over her shoulders, she wore thin clothes, and her two snow-white legs trembled as she wrote words and communicated with Li Ming.
She had seen Li Ming's power many times, but because of their different cultivation systems, she rarely asked Li Ming about it.
But when Li Ming made his move today, something felt off.
Because Li Ming's spiritual power was several times stronger than hers, it wasn't just that Li Ming was stronger, but that the quality of his spiritual power was different. That's how she learned that Li Ming's spiritual power was called immortal spiritual power.
Spiritual power and immortal spiritual power are completely different in quality; the latter is many times stronger than the former.
She fell into deep thought, remembering that the villagers in the retirement village had said that there might be many different systems of cultivation.
But all paths lead to the same destination, and ultimately all will step into the realm of the Tao.
The cultivation methods of the villagers in the retirement village are very abstract and difficult to understand. The cultivation methods outside are easier to understand, but they are currently stuck at the realm of being incompatible with heaven and earth.
If she wanted to break through to a higher level, she felt she could learn from Li Ming.
With this in mind, Wu Xiao's thoughts became clearer and clearer.
The two continued their discussion with great enthusiasm.
Suddenly, they heard faint sounds coming from outside the village, like footsteps.
Wu Xiao jumped up from the bed and was about to run outside.
"Get dressed first," Li Ming told her.
Wu Xiao stopped in her tracks and realized that she was only wearing a thin garment, barely concealing her chest. The white fabric shimmered with a crystalline luster, making her look particularly alluring.
Her face flushed. She had been lying down and had sat up while chatting with Li Ming, without noticing her own condition at all.
Li Ming didn't even remind her.
Her face flushed red instantly, she made a hand seal, spun around once, and put on her dress.
"You didn't see anything, did you?"
"No." Li Ming had been talking to her the whole time and hadn't paid any attention. Besides, they were both dressed, so he couldn't see anything except a curve.
Wu Xiao didn't believe his nonsense.
However, without arguing further, he quickly ran out.
There was nothing outside the village, but several large animal footprints were visible on the ground.
He extended his divine sense and searched the area, but found nothing.
Perhaps a wild animal is passing by.
I didn't pay any attention to it.
Go back and continue communicating with Li Ming.
They always had so much to talk about, and no one knew what they were saying. They kept talking until the morning sunlight shone in, and Wu Xiao realized that a new day had begun.
Wu Xiao got up from beside the bed, brushed her teeth, and washed up.
Li Ming remained lying in the red jade crystal coffin, observing her every move. He inadvertently noticed the water vat beside her and was slightly surprised: "There's something wrong with the water vat."
Wu Xiao brushed his teeth, his words muffled, and asked, "What's the problem?"
Li Mingdao said, "Yesterday many people were using water, but I didn't see anyone drawing water. Why is there still so much water?" This kind of water tank does not conform to the law of conservation, so there must be a problem.
“My mother-in-law said not to worry, a mature water tank will automatically release water.” Wu Xiao had noticed this problem with the water tank a long time ago and had asked her mother-in-law about it. She said it was a normal water tank.
"That's nonsense, it's definitely not normal. Jump into the water tank and take a look. I think there's another space inside."
"OK."
After brushing her teeth, Wu Xiao put away her brushing tools and jumped into the water tank.
"Thump..."
The sound came out, and water splashed.
Wu Xiao's face darkened.
Her clothes from the thighs down were completely soaked, and she was standing right there in the water tank.
At this moment, the village chief's wife yawned and came out of the room. She saw Wu Xiao standing in the water vat with her eyes wide open: "I might not be fully awake yet."
She closed the door and went back to sleep.
Wu Xiao was extremely embarrassed because she heard other villagers opening their doors. She quickly jumped out of the water tank and ran back to her room.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Li Ming, I'll kill you."
Li Ming was embarrassed, feeling it was unscientific. He stared at the water vat, studying it, but couldn't find any channels connecting it to rivers or the sea, yet the water level remained constant.
This is not scientific.
Even after careful observation, I still couldn't figure it out.
They had no choice but to switch the scene back to Wu Xiao's room, where they found that she had already changed her clothes.
She wore a light purple and white gauze dress, her curves were graceful, her black hair cascaded down to her waist, her skin was as smooth as jade, she was fresh and elegant, her almond eyes were sparkling, and her pearly teeth gently bit her thin cherry lips, making her look sexy and charming.
"Li Ming, I really want to beat you to death." Wu Xiao gritted her teeth. She was really in a sorry state. Did her mother-in-law think she was crazy? She jumped into the water vat for no reason. It was all Li Ming's fault.
Li Ming pretended to be dead and didn't reply.
...
Time flies, and it's noon.
The mother-in-law pulled Wu Xiao into the room, intending to tell her the secrets of the retirement village. Li Ming was also listening attentively, having been waiting for her to tell him the secrets of the retirement village.
The old woman brought the young master here.
There are more than a dozen thatched huts here, with traces of people having lived here for hundreds of years, but the people probably moved away long ago.
She thought the location was secluded and quite nice.
So we stayed here.
One day, the old woman suddenly discovered that the retirement village was shrouded in a dark and eerie atmosphere. Six strange alleys had appeared in the village, and it seemed that gods were breathing and Buddhas were chanting inside.
She was very curious and wanted to go in and take a look, but she didn't dare to go in.
She was afraid that if something happened to her if she went in, the young master might be left without anyone to take care of him.
She didn't dare to risk taking the young master inside.
One day, the young master disappeared. She searched everywhere but could not find him.
All they found was a letter and a map of the Great Wall. He told them to go out for a while, not to look for him, and to wait for him to come back so they could go home together.
So she quietly waited for the young master to return in the retirement village.
Later, villagers gradually fled to this place for various reasons.
Then, later on, he found Wu Xiao.
This is the whole story of how she appeared in the retirement village.
As for the six roads in the retirement village, she was curious but never went in. If it weren't for that red-haired monster that looked like the young master, she would never have entered the Thunder Swamp Forbidden Area.
Based on her description, Li Ming summarized one point.
.
The village head knew nothing about the retirement village.
She only brought her young master here, lived here for a while, and then the young master disappeared. She never explored the secrets of the six alleys in the retirement village.
Since he couldn't get the secrets of the retirement village out of him, Li Ming wanted to ask the village chief about other secrets, such as where the so-called young master came from.
Li Ming thought he would have to use a lot of persuasion to get his mother-in-law to agree.
She said it very easily.
The place where the village chief and the young master came from is called the Ancestral Realm.
As for where the Primordial Realm is, she doesn't know either.
He knew nothing when asked.
Li Ming suspected that the village chief's mother-in-law was hiding something, but he didn't ask anymore. She didn't want to talk about it, and asking would be pointless.
