Chapter 45 The Fragmented Taoist 7
In the air, a group of people stayed on their swords, hesitating to take the next step.
I don't know if he was still shocked by the scene and hadn't recovered yet, or if he was thinking about whether it was possible for him to change his way of practice.
The quiet atmosphere was broken by Jia Fugui, who flew over with his fist and stopped on Yan Xia's left side. His lips moved slightly for two seconds, and it looked like he had a lot to say, but in the end, it all came down to one sentence: "Congratulations, Daoist Fellow Zixia."
Advancing to a higher level is indeed something to be congratulated. Although the process of advancement seems a bit like a joke, the cultivation is indeed real.
The expression on Jia Fugui's face was a bit complicated. Before, he was just trying to make friends, but now there was a little more respect in his friendly attitude.
Yan Xia returned the greeting: "Daoyou Yuanfu, you are welcome."
The conversation was interrupted and no one suggested going to the ground to rest. One by one, they were talking in the air, vying to speak.
One casual cultivator even boldly asked what everyone was thinking: "Which sect did Daoist Fellow Zixia enter?"
Yan Xia was silent. What should he say?
After a while, Yan Xia looked mysterious and said, "What I entered... cannot be known to outsiders."
That casual cultivator: “…………”
Indeed, such a strange and unfathomable truth is not something that ordinary people should know.
This topic was passed over with laughter.
Seeing that everyone had forgotten something important, Pei Xian stepped forward and brought the topic back on track.
"I wonder what Daoist Fellow Zixia encountered earlier? And how did he escape?"
Yan Xia touched his upper and lower lips together, and under everyone's gaze, he said something that made everyone uneasy: "It's a level six peak golden-tailed black monkey."
"What?!"
"Level 6 Peak??? Are you sure you're not mistaken?!"
"How is that possible? Isn't it said that the highest level of monsters in this secret realm is level four?"
With Yan Xia as the center, the surroundings were in an uproar. People gathered in groups of three or five with expressions of disbelief on their faces, and some even opened their mouths slightly and forgot to close them.
Pei Xian also frowned: "Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"
Yan Xia: "I'll guarantee it with my life."
Yan Xia spoke with great confidence, but as soon as he finished speaking, the person on the other side choked visibly.
Only then did Yan Xia realize that in the eyes of others his head seemed to have no guarantee value.
You can fall when you want to, fly when you want to, and you can press it again when you are done, just like some monsters can rise again after their tails are cut off.
Yan Xia: “…………”
Although, his head is still quite valuable, and it is worth it for him to improve his cultivation to a higher level in order to get it back.
Pei Xian's choking expression quickly recovered, and she became the serious and rigorous senior sister again, carefully asking Yan Xia about everything that had happened.
Knowing the importance of the matter, Yan Xia was in no mood to joke and recounted the entire process of how he was caught and how he was released.
The crowd that was buzzing around had long since quieted down, all listening attentively with their ears pricked up.
When I heard the monkey snatch the bowl and drink up the porridge.
At a glance, there were twenty or thirty people, and the expressions on their faces were the same and hard to describe.
Then, when he heard how the monkey was taught how to grill meat and cook porridge, his indescribable expression became even more complicated.
It contained awe and fear of the sixth-level monster. At the same time, he was a little relieved that this monster was not so hostile to humans and was within the range of negotiation.
However, this also indirectly proves that the monster's cultivation level at the peak of level six is not fake.
The higher the level of the monster, the more human-like it is. A monster that is smart enough to complete cooking operations by itself is definitely not as simple as a third or fourth level monster.
The crowd, who had just recovered from their relief that this sixth-level monster was not malicious, immediately realized another problem.
Now they only know of one, so will there be a second or third one?
Or...higher than level 6? ?
This terrifying guess caused the surroundings to return to silence for a while, until a casual cultivator suddenly shouted, "I can't get out! The teleportation talisman is ineffective, what should I do?"
In a moment, everyone's eyes turned to the casual cultivator.
It turned out to be that man who had just cast the teleportation talisman out of fear. He didn't want to stay in this place where something was wrong everywhere.
As a result, the imagined feeling of being teleported did not come. The teleportation talisman was induced, but the person remained in the same place.
This meant that their last line of defense was gone, and the casual cultivator collapsed immediately. He just came in to join in the fun and didn't expect to lose his life here.
Seeing this, some people took out their own teleportation talismans, but the result was obvious. The talisman was just like a piece of torn paper, and everyone remained where they were.
"What's going on? What the hell is going on?"
"My senior brother was not like this when he came in last time. He was able to leave by using the teleportation talisman."
"It's over, it's over. Are we going to die here?"
"We can't get out now. If we face a level six monster, won't we just die?"
While the secret realm was in chaos, the atmosphere in the main hall of Zhengyang Peak was also quite serious.
He Huarong stood beside the master of Zhengyang Peak: "Uncle Nanwu sent a message saying that the secret realm has completely lost contact."
The master of Zhengyang Peak frowned so hard that a fly could be pinched to death: "Where is the head brother?"
He Huarong replied: "Master is coming this way."
The silver-threaded female elder interrupted, "Why did it happen so suddenly? I remember that time five hundred years ago, wasn't everything going smoothly?"
An elder replied: "It seems that this secret realm is not as simple as we thought."
Everyone was talking back and forth, but there was no conclusion to the discussion. They could only look at the scene on the curtain, worrying about the disciples of their own sect.
The disciples who were concerned were still in a panic and couldn't calm down.
In this atmosphere, Yan Xia turned his head and looked at his biological father.
He really does have the attribute of a crow's mouth. I have never experienced that in my previous life.
Yan Feiyue touched his nose when he received the gaze. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect it to come true.
Su Wenyin, who was standing in front of him, had already started counting small amounts of money.
The final conclusion is......
This trip is another losing business.
When you have the chance, you must make more money, otherwise when you reach the next world, you won’t even have the capital to do a losing business.
I don’t know how long they had been arguing. Pei Xian glanced at the four people who were always calm not far away. Including the square-faced man next to them, there could barely be five people.
Jia Fugui, a square-faced man: “…………”
He also wanted to make a noise, but no one listened to him.
Faced with the calm expressions of these four people, my anxious mood calmed down a lot.
Pei Xian retracted her gaze and began to take charge of the situation: "Don't quarrel, what's the point of quarreling now? Look at the bright side, at least we are all together now, and we have helpers on both sides. Since the teleportation talisman can't get us out, then we can find an exit ourselves. The secret realm is so big, since we can get in, there must be a place where we can get out."
With the appearance of a backbone, the panicked expressions of the crowd eased a little.
There is also a kind of tragic grandeur, where even if we are going to die, we are all together.
Pei Xian said loudly: "Where should we go now? Does anyone have any ideas?"
There were people shaking their heads in front of me. They were all people entering the secret realm for the first time. All their knowledge came from hearsay. What ideas could they have?
Pei Xian seemed not to expect to get any answers, and turned her head very quickly.
Then Yan Xia met the other party's serious gaze.
Pei Xian asked: "Where are the fellow Taoists?"
Yan Xia handed the social stage over to his own mother, and just muttered in his heart that this Daoist Pei Xian seemed to have an extraordinary trust in them, even though they had only known each other for a few days, so he didn't know where this feeling came from.
As a straight man, how would I know?
All this can be attributed to the female cultivator's sixth sense.
Su Wenyin took over the social baton and smiled: "To be honest, our understanding of this secret realm may not be as good as that of the fellow Taoists present here."
After finishing speaking, Su Wenyin controlled the sword and moved a little forward, looking in the direction of Feiyu Sect.
"Why not ask that little Taoist friend if there is any place you want to go?"
Yan Xia turned around and was not surprised to see that He Lekang's face had turned red again.
Yan Xia: “…………”
Is the blood around this little Taoist friend's face more than his own?
Pei Xian's expression was also paused: "…………"
She now began to doubt her sixth sense.
Judging from the current situation, even though they were unable to leave the secret realm, these people were still so interested in her junior brother.
There was one more thing she couldn't figure out.
Pei Xian felt a little tired. It was not easy to be the eldest senior sister. If she could get out, she would definitely go into seclusion for a few years to have some peace and quiet.
When He Lekang was asked, he quickly waved his hands: "I, I, I... I don't know, I, I just want to follow my senior brothers and sisters."
His voice was as soft as a mosquito's. If the people present had not had high cultivation skills, they would not have been able to hear what he was saying at all.
Under that deer-like expression, Su Wenyin's eyes gradually became kind.
"Then just walk around blindly. Maybe you can get out by accident."
At this time, a Wuji Sect disciple not far away spoke weakly, "I remember that my uncle said he came here more than a thousand years ago. There seems to be a palace in this secret realm. It should be where the Wuliang Patriarch lived when he was still in the mortal world. My uncle gained enlightenment there and was sent out of the secret realm while he was still breaking through. I think there might be an exit there."
As soon as he finished speaking, a flurry of chatter broke out all around him.
"Is there actually a palace in the secret realm? Why didn't my senior brother encounter it when he came in before?"
"It definitely takes chance. People who are destined to meet will naturally meet each other."
"It seems that Ancestor Wuliang was indeed born into a royal family."
"Then should we go look for it? Isn't it said that ordinary people can't encounter it? Then can we find it?"
"Just try. What else can you do if you don't look for it? Can you find another exit?"
Pei Xian and the others discussed for a while before speaking: "If no one has any objection, then let's go and try to look for it first."
After all, this seems to be the only reliable way out at the moment.
Naturally, no one has any objection.
After staying in the air for more than half an hour, the team finally set off again. Although they didn't know where their destination was, at least they were moving.
After flying for more than an hour, a team appeared in front of them and headed straight towards them.
The leaders, wearing uniform blue clothing, were disciples of the Tianhai Sect.
There were about twenty to thirty people following behind. The fact that they were able to gather together showed that everyone had discovered the problem with this secret realm.
As expected, the eldest senior brother who led the Tianhai Sect started talking about their experiences as soon as he saw Pei Xian.
In fact, they are all pretty much the same. Fortunately, they did not encounter a level six monster.
Unfortunately, when they were facing a peak level 4 demon beast, two of them were defeated and died.
After the eldest senior brother from Tianhai Sect finished speaking, Pei Xian also told him about the situation on his side.
Then there was a burst of exclamations.
They were horrified that there was a peak level six monster in the secret realm, and they were also surprised that there was an early Nascent Soul cultivator with a bone age of over 20 years old in the team.
The information exchange process lasted about a quarter of an hour, and the result was...
The team has grown a lot.
Over the next two days, more and more people joined the team and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.
Everyone was facing a formidable enemy, ready to face the unknown danger at any time.
In such an atmosphere, the style of Yan Xia's family of four is particularly eye-catching.
Specifically manifested in…………
He started cooking again.
The expressions of the people around me changed from curiosity to indescribable, and then to calm in the past two days. It can be said that they have adapted quite quickly.
Some people even secretly wondered whether this kind of mentality was more suitable for cultivation.
If I have the chance to go out, I really want to try it.
Yan Xia didn't care what others thought. He just couldn't let himself down. He had changed from three meals a day to two meals a day in the past two days, and sometimes he only had time to cook one meal.
He didn't make a big pot like he did that morning, but just enough for their family of four.
Oh, I forgot, there was also a share for Jia Fugui, and of course he paid for his share.
Yan Xia still handed the task of controlling the fire to his elder brother, and he kept busy.
With so many people here now, he can definitely realize his dream of becoming a food tycoon.
But unfortunately, he didn't have that much food left, so he left some for Monkey Brother, and the rest was enough for their family of four.
I hadn't started my business halfway when I ran into Monkey King robbing me on the road. That was really unfortunate.
If he didn't know clearly that this world has no connection with his previous world.
He began to doubt whether he had to suffer this disaster because of what he said, that he came from the Tang Dynasty in the East.
However, the current situation is almost the same as the 81st difficulty.
Every now and then, a level 4 monster would pop out. They had killed more than a dozen of them, but they still hadn't found the exit.
---
The fifth night in the secret realm arrived.
Although it was dark, a fellow Taoist contributed a magical instrument similar to a night pearl, which, when injected with spiritual power, could illuminate the surroundings as if it were daytime.
Yan Xia calls this a light bulb that doesn't require electricity, and it's a very high wattage one.
The number of people in the team has increased a little in the past two days, and now there are about one or two hundred people.
When there are more people, there are more disagreements.
So during the day, Pei Xian stepped forward to organize the team.
To put it simply, there should be a person in charge in each small team.
In the future, let's discuss things together. Once a decision is passed, those who have objections should stop arguing.
On Yan Xia's side, the person in charge is naturally his mother.
Just as night was approaching, his mother was called away by Pei Xian, who asked them to discuss whether to change the itinerary for tomorrow.
After Su Wenyin left, Yan Xia and his two sons were left playing Landlord in the tree house out of boredom.
This card is naturally not from the ring space of Brother Donkey, but a simple version that Yan Feiyue carved out of a small wooden board when he was bored these days.
When the father and his two sons were having a great time, several exclamations suddenly came from outside the tree house, among which seemed to be words like "Fellow Daoist Ziyin, are you okay?"
As soon as Yan Xia raised his eyes, he saw his father rushing out like an old cannonball. One could only say that they were worthy of being a couple who had been together for two lifetimes.
Yan Xia and Yan Ji were not slow in leaving the house, and in a few seconds they moved in front of Su Wenyin.
Now they finally knew what those people were shouting.
There was only a small bite on Su Wenyin's finger, and under the illumination of the Night Pearl magic weapon, a small white figure was moving gracefully.
Yan Xia used the small program to check it, and it was an extremely beautiful level 4 peak white-feathered nine-tailed raccoon.
According to Pei Xian, one minute ago, they were planning the route.
This white-feathered nine-tailed raccoon appeared under the big tree on Su Wenyin's left.
As soon as they saw the little figure, they reached out their hands and said, "It's so beautiful."
The result is that some ladies who are obsessed with looks and furry fur stroked the monsters as if they were cats and were successfully bitten.
Yan Feiyue asked with concern: "It doesn't hurt, does it?"
Su Wenyin turned her head away with a look on her face that said, "What the hell are you talking about?" How could she be in pain? Her kid didn't even feel any pain when his head fell off.
Yan Feiyue touched his nose and realized that he had said something stupid.
Yan Xia stood aside and spoke at the right time: "If I remember correctly, if you are bitten by this thing, you will..."
Before he could finish his words, his own mother in front of him had already confirmed what he had not finished saying.
Above the bright red dress, her cascading black hair turned visibly white as snow right under everyone's eyes.
Su Wenyin also noticed this problem and said nonchalantly, "Congratulations on getting a new hair color."
Others: “…………”
As expected of people who still eat and drink when disaster is approaching, their mentality is different.
Even when your black hair turns white, you can remain calm.
This is what Yan Xia wanted to say about the peculiarity of the White-Feathered Nine-Tailed Raccoon. This kind of monster has an unpredictable personality and is extremely rare.
They spend their entire lives dedicated to growing perfect, shiny white fur.
The reason why they are rare is that if they are not satisfied with their appearance, they will get angry to death.
Those who survived safely are all extremely beautiful.
Many monks like to keep them as pets, but unfortunately the white-feathered nine-tailed raccoon is rare and difficult to raise.
If you get bitten accidentally, all the hair on your body will turn as white as the white-feathered nine-tailed raccoon.
Apart from that there was no other harm.
Because some people raise them and some are bitten by them, there are alchemists who have specially developed an antidote to the problem of black hair turning white.
However, in their secret realm, it is estimated that no one carries this antidote with them.
It doesn’t matter if they don’t have it, they can’t use it. Even if a head is lost, it can be restarted and healed again. This little poison can naturally be restarted as well.
The one Su Wenyin saw could only cultivate to the peak of level four, which could be considered as the best among this race.
Yan Xia turned his head to look in the direction where the raccoon had disappeared. Although he had only caught a quick glimpse, it was indeed so beautiful that it was shocking. No wonder his mother reached out to touch it.
After masturbating for a while, I'm still not satisfied.
Yan Xia glanced sideways and saw his mother, who stroked her white hair and looked in that direction with a somewhat regretful expression.
"What a pity, he ran too fast."
Otherwise, you can get another big one.
Yan Xia: “…………”
He doesn't understand the world of furry people.
Yan Feiyue whispered to comfort him: "I will buy you eight or ten kittens and puppies when I have time in the future."
This free time naturally refers to after retirement.
Su Wenyin raised her eyebrows: "You said this, you are responsible for cleaning up the shit."
Yan Feiyue: “…………”
Want to withdraw.
Yan Xia: “…………”
He understood this. Isn't this what people often said in the last world: Lend it to me, kid, to play with, and I'll return it to you if you cry?
Yan Ji silently reduced his presence a little.
Instead of doing this job, it is better to complete one more mission.
While the family was arguing over their eyebrows, Pei Xian, who was standing by and had no idea what he was thinking, suddenly said, "Daoyou Zixia, your hair..."
Yan Xia looked down.
“Fuck…!!!”
The national quintessence engraved in our genes almost came out of my mouth.
Su Wenyin was also surprised: "Hey, baby, why are your hair turning white too?"
Yan Xia stared at his own white hair, which was exactly the same as his mother's, and expressed his incomprehension.
Although he couldn't understand it, the fact was that within three seconds, his hair turned visibly as white as his mother's.
Yan Xia pulled his white hair and looked at Su Wenyin in surprise.
There was silence for several seconds.
Pei Xian's expression was even more solemn than when she learned that they couldn't leave the secret realm. She said seriously, "It seems that the monsters in this secret realm have also changed."
As we all know, the white-feathered nine-tailed raccoon will only make people's hair turn white after biting them.
But now, right under their noses, it could attack from a distance without biting anyone.
This realization made Pei Xian and the other cultivators present feel depressed.
Being unable to get out was like having the spiritual platform hung on your waist.
Now even the monsters don’t play by the rules. If the monsters in the future are like this, and their deadly attacks are beyond their previous knowledge, wouldn’t everyone be in more danger?
Yan Xia looked at the two of them, with expressions that showed that the world was more dangerous than they had imagined, and wanted to say that this might have nothing to do with the white-feathered nine-tailed raccoon.
But after thinking about it, I decided to give it up.
I don't think anyone would believe it if I told them, and the important thing is, with better precautions, maybe some people would be less injured.
After figuring this out, Yan Xia looked at his mother, but said nothing on the surface.
In the sea of knowledge.
[Twenty-eight Girl]: "It seems that your mother has influenced you."
[Twenty-eight Girl]: "Come and analyze it, what kind of logic is this?"
[Another person]: "I'm too lazy to guess, I'll just ask the guy directly."
[Young girl]: "Then ask me. I'm tired and I'm going to sleep."
So, while several monks led by Pei Xian were still having a serious discussion.
Su Wenyin, with a head of white hair, brought her husband and two children and slowly returned to the tree house that had been taken out long ago.
Pei Xian and others: “…………”
Why is this family always so calm?
Yan Xia, one of the calmest people, didn't care about his white hair.
He took a selfie and sent it to Brother Buddha.
Before I could say anything after I sent the message, the other party made some comments.
【Namo Amitabha】: "New hair color? Not bad."
[Another person]: “…………”
Although it does look good, that's not the point.
Yan Xia spoke directly and explained the problem clearly within 60 seconds.
This time Brother Fo did not reply immediately. It was obvious that it would take time to find the problem.
Yan Xia took advantage of the free time to admire her selfie, especially staring at her white hair for a long time.
Although restarting can solve the problem, who knows if restarting too many times will cause the problem to get stuck again.
He has already restarted twice. In this world, being stuck for two seconds could be fatal. This harmless little problem should be left as it is for now.
When Yan Xia returned to the tree house and just lay down, Brother Fo’s message came again.
[Namo Amitabha]: "It's not a big problem, it's just a genetic setting added to your mother's side."
[Namo Amitabha]: "After testing, you found that 85.5% of your genes were inherited from your mother, so you two just meet the test of genetic settings."
Yan Xia stared at the news for several seconds. Doesn't that mean that if his mother becomes deaf, dumb, or lame in the future, he will become the same?
[Namo Amitabha]: "Being deaf and dumb is possible, but being lame is not certain."
[Namo Amitabha]: "There are many uncertainties in this function. Some things are not absolute."
He understands the truth, but...
[Another person]: "I just didn't expect that your functions are so comprehensive."
[Namo Amitabha] "Why do you think so? Isn't reproduction and inheritance the natural law of life? When we were working on it, many people gave us feedback that they needed this function."
[Namo Amitabha]: "Not everyone can be single for more than 20 years. There are still many people who want to have a perfect family after retirement."
[Namo Amitabha]: "Maybe your parents will be able to have a third child in the future."
Yan Xia: “………………”
[Another person]: "You talk a lot tonight."
[Namo Amitabha]: "I understand."
Yan Xia: “…………”
What do you know? Just understand.
It's not normal to have been like this for more than 20 years.
But then again, seeing how loving his parents are, maybe he will really have a younger brother or sister in the future.
