Chapter 48 The Fragmented Daoist 10
The atmosphere of singing and dancing continued until dawn.
The monks who usually practiced every minute and often went into seclusion for several years all had faces that showed they were still not satisfied. There were even people who had been fasting for years who actually started to make breakfast for themselves.
Facing many people who came to buy food at high prices, Yan Xia said: “…………”
As expected, fall happens in an instant.
Even the people from Feiyu Sect started a fire and used an alchemy furnace to cook meat soup.
I don't know if I would be put in solitary confinement as punishment if the elders of the sect saw this.
Yan Xia scanned the surroundings and quickly spread the pancake while asking Su Wenyin, who was still immersed in petting the raccoon, in his sea of consciousness.
[Another person]: "After you save the world, if you destroy it in another way, does that count as mission accomplished or incomplete?"
Su Wenyin spoke in a calm tone.
[Twenty-eight Girl]: "Don't worry, it won't be destroyed."
As Yan Xia was beginning to feel doubtful, his nose moved subconsciously, and a pungent smell of burnt food came up.
Yan Xia looked at Pei Xian who was at a loss because the broth had dried up not far away: "…………"
As expected, his mother had a sharp eye and had seen through the essence of the problem long ago.
This group of people...
How is it that everyone can confuse things?
Isn't the temperature well controlled when refining the elixir?
As the burnt smell became stronger, Yan Xia felt that his nose was no longer usable, and even felt that his own pancake was a little burnt.
Fortunately, this was all his illusion. His brother was very good at controlling fire. If he were to learn alchemy, he would definitely be the best at cooking.
A breakfast that was planned on impulse ended right from the beginning in the midst of chaos.
Everyone stared at the black charcoal in front of them, then looked at the fragrant pancakes not far away, and they all sighed in their hearts that the master is worthy of being a master, as he can do such a difficult task so well.
If Yan Xia could hear everyone's thoughts, he would reply...
There is no other reason, it’s just a matter of practice.
While Yan Xia's family was enjoying their breakfast happily, although the others couldn't eat the charcoal they made themselves, they were able to calm down.
I sat cross-legged quietly, making up for the time I missed last night.
Yan Xia was stunned and sighed once again that old ginger is always spiciest. His mother had seen the ending from the beginning, but halfway through the meal, something even spicier came along.
When Grandpa Su's video call was connected, Su Wenyin was wearing that green hair.
[Grandpa, I am the most handsome man in the world]: "Wow!! Why did you enter a rebellious period during menopause? What did Yan Feiyue do to make you so upset that you want to dye this thing green."
Su Wenyin and his wife: "…………"
【28-year-old girl】: "Just poisoned."
[Grandpa, I'm the Most Handsome Man in the World]: "Haven't you already been poisoned by love?"
[Young man]: "Dad, how dare you say that?"
[Grandpa, I am the most handsome man in the world]: "That's not necessarily true. Wait until I become a worm in your stomach before you tell me that."
Yan Feiyue: “…………”
I don't know why I feel a little nauseous.
The three of them only said a few words, and Yan Xia, with his purple hair, also moved within the range of the video.
Grandpa Su said "Wow" again.
[Grandpa, I am the most handsome man in the world]: "My dear grandson, you...a myriad of colors, purple air coming from the east, and purple buttocks can do it."
[Another person]: "My butt isn't purple."
[Grandpa, I’m the most handsome in the world]: "Okay, okay, if you don’t have purple, then you don’t have purple. Let me see my eldest grandson."
When Yan Ji moved in front of the camera, Grandpa Su finally stopped making noises.
[Grandpa, I’m the most handsome man in the world]: “Fortunately, there is still a normal person like Xiao Jiji.”
Su Wenyin interrupted.
[Twenty-eight-year-old girl]: "I already said it was poisoning, I didn't dye my hair."
[Grandpa, I am the most handsome man in the world]: "If you put away that smile on your face before you say that, I might believe it a little."
【28-year-old girl】: "I am so happy."
Seeing the father and daughter arguing with each other, Yan Xia stared at the handsome guy on the screen and asked, still not quite used to it, "Grandpa, do you want to talk to us about something?"
[Grandpa, I’m the most handsome man in the world]: “It’s okay.”
After he finished speaking, he paused for two seconds and then laughed. Yan Xia inexplicably had a bad feeling about the laugh.
Sure enough, the next second his bohemian grandfather spoke again.
[Grandpa, I’m the most handsome man in the world]: "Actually, I have something to do. Today I killed a particularly beautiful zombie king, and I wanted to show you guys how good it is."
As these words fell, the person in the opposite camera moved away a little.
Before Yan Xia could react, he heard his parents say in unison: "I don't want to see him!"
Then there was a particularly disgusting one, with a rotten head and a hole in it, and the key point was that the head didn't even have eyeballs, and was covered in blood and flesh everywhere.
Yan Xia: “???”
Yan Xia: “!!!”
I miss you...
As soon as the thought came to my mind, I heard a sound of "yue".
Yan Xia: “???”
He has no moon.
He turned around and saw that it was his elder brother.
In the video, Grandpa Su showed a triumphant smile, but he still spoke righteously.
[Grandpa, I am the most handsome man in the world]: "Little Jiji, you have seen too little of the world. I will show you something good in the future."
[Another person]: "Hey, hey, hey... It seems to be a bit stuck. Why is it stuck? Download it. I'll talk to you next time~~"
Yan Xia, whose acting was a bit lacking, closed the video with a snap.
It's impossible to watch it, there won't be a next time.
The sea of consciousness was quiet, and the family of four could no longer eat.
Su Wenyin used her experience to tell her two children: "Next time he says this, stay away from him in advance."
"Your grandpa likes this."
In my previous life, I was a biological scientific researcher and had seen all kinds of disgusting experimental creatures.
But after this person died once, he developed a habit of sharing his experiences with others.
There was no one to share with in the previous life, and scientific research work was kept confidential. The people who could see it were all people working in this field, and they were not afraid at all.
Su Wenyin didn't know how many times she had watched it actively or passively.
After listening to their parents' story, Yan Xia and Yan Ji said...
Learned it.
So next time, let my parents take over the video call for grandpa, they don’t miss him that much.
Su Wenyin and his wife: "…………"
It can be seen that there is some family affection in this family, but not much.
The father is like this, and so is the son. They are truly a family.
Amid everyone's puzzled gazes, the family put away the unfinished breakfast.
It is impossible to continue eating.
Pei Xian, who was closest, asked, "But what happened?"
When Pei Xian met this family for the first time and saw that they hadn't finished their meal yet, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
What danger is coming? I can't even take care of the food, it must be serious! !
Yan Xia said seriously, coughing, "Nothing, I just realized that we seem to have been delayed for a long time, so it is more important to find the exit."
Pei Xian: “…………”
I’ve been cooking for more than ten days and sleeping for more than ten nights, and you just realized it now?
But the facts are not important.
Seeing that these masters were about to set off, the rest of the people followed without stopping. It was impossible for them to stay where they were.
There is an old saying that goes, "A blessing in disguise."
After groping for most of the day, Yan Xia's family felt a sense of hopelessness in the face of the fog. Although they had lost interest in having lunch, it seemed that they had really found the exit.
It wasn't just the four of them who had this thought. In fact, almost everyone present had this feeling, which was...
This is it.
Because the air flow here is exactly the same as at the entrance to the secret realm.
This realization makes everyone both excited and worried.
I am excited that they may be able to get out, but I am worried that this is just a possibility. And...
"We may be separated in a while, so be careful." Pei Xian warned his fellow disciples in the sect after realizing the problem.
You have to know that they were separated when they entered the secret realm. This place is so similar to the entrance of the secret realm, so there is a high probability that this will happen.
Someone whispered in fear: "Wouldn't it be like sending ourselves to die if we separated? Should we look for another place?"
"We have been looking for so many days, is there any other place?"
"But..." Someone looked in the direction of Yan Xia and the others, and without finishing his words, he took small steps towards them.
But what?
But I really don’t want to separate.
It's like when the sky falls down and there is a taller person supporting it, but suddenly you have to face the fact that this taller person is actually under another sky.
It's impossible not to be timid, but there is no other way to go.
After everyone stood and discussed for a few minutes, Su Wenyin took the lead and took a step. Yan Xia did not follow his mother's steps. He took small steps to the side of He Lekang and said, "Shall we go in together?"
There was confusion, surprise, and doubt in He Lekang's eyes, but in the end, they all turned into one sentence: "Okay, okay."
Yan Xia inexplicably had the illusion that she was taking the puppy out for a walk, but she didn't know if she should get closer before going in, or if it would be the same after going in?
The answer to this question is unknown before entering. The fact that they will separate after entering is just their guess.
Facts have proved that some of the guesses and feelings are not groundless. Yan Xia did not feel dizzy the moment he stepped into the fog. But the feeling of silence when he was alone was still quite familiar.
What was more familiar was that he bumped into his brother's back.
Yan Xia touched his head and fortunately it didn’t hurt.
Yan Ji: “…………”
"I'm in a bit of pain."
Yan Xia raised his arm and rubbed his eldest brother's back: "As a man, you can't say that you are in pain."
Who made this secret realm always mistake them for the same person? Didn’t you see that the positions of his parents in the sea of consciousness overlapped into one point? It seems that the two of them bumped into each other.
But now is not the time to study these things. This fog is different from the previous one. The previous one was just a barrier.
Now, the visibility is less than three meters, and it feels like they are being trapped inside.
Yan Xia looked around. It was useless for him to deliberately get closer to Junior Brother He Lekang. There was no other living person around except his brother.
Yan Xia twitched his nose: "Why do I feel like there's something wrong with this fog?"
Yan Ji nodded.
The two of them had walked less than five meters side by side when they suddenly heard a noise from the treetops diagonally to the side.
Yan Xia glanced sideways and saw a dark figure that looked like a monkey and a squirrel jumping towards him twice.
Just as he jumped onto the vine opposite him, he suddenly screamed, and fell to the ground with foam at the mouth after a moment.
Yan Xia: “????”
"Bumping into someone?"
He didn't even touch it.
The expression on Yan Ji's face was also very complicated.
After two seconds, he said, "Seven Evil Martens must have been stuffed to death by you."
The Seven Evil Martens are an evil beast that specializes in searching people's memories and then creating illusions to trap people to death in the illusions.
They feed on human emotions such as fear, cowardice and greed. They have no independent thoughts and just keep making up false illusions to stimulate the darkness in the hearts of the monks.
If you can't get out of it, becoming possessed is the least you can do, and it is also very likely that if you are not careful, your spiritual power will erupt, your spiritual platform will be broken, and you will end up dead.
Yan Xia: “…………”
If we search his memory, wouldn't that mean we are searching the entire system library?
How can the little monster's head compare with the one made by the bureau?
Yan Xia took two steps forward to confirm and found that it was exactly the same as the Seven Evil Martens in the database.
Yan Xia commented seriously: "It's not an unjust death."
At least I gained some knowledge before I died.
Moreover, this thing is born with the fog and will dissipate with the fog after death.
It had only been two minutes, and the Seven Evil Martens that had just fallen to the ground evaporated like steam.
As it dissipated, the small patch of mist became visibly lighter.
Yan Xia concentrated on thinking: "Could this be all the stuff in here?"
Yan Ji: “It looks like it.”
“I didn’t sense anything else.”
The range that can be covered by the spiritual consciousness at the peak of the Jindan stage is limited, but there are indeed no other creatures within this limited range.
Yan Xia randomly chose a direction and walked towards it, muttering to his brother as he walked: "This alone is enough to make everyone drink a pot."
After all, not everyone has the brains to stuff the Seven Evil Martens to death.
When Yan Xia was sighing that the brains produced by the bureau were very useful, his mother also sent a text message in his sea of consciousness.
[Young Girl]: "My son, I've checked it out. There's no danger. Go wander around first and grab as many as you can. It's the final push. It would be too unfair to die here."
Yan Xia was just about to reply when he saw another message from Ms. Su.
[Twenty-eight Girl]: "Tsk tsk, two more died. What the hell! How dare it search my memory? Is this something it can touch?"
Yan Xia agreed mindlessly, gave his mother a few spiral likes, and then followed his eldest brother, wandering aimlessly.
Maybe the close distance before coming in was still useful, the first person Yan Xia met was He Lekang.
But the condition of this little disciple was somewhat similar to what he had imagined, yet also somewhat different.
The other party was not affected by the illusion of the Seven Evil Martens. When Yan Xia saw the man from afar, he saw him holding a sword and fighting with two Seven Evil Martens.
This is very strange. It is said that the illusion created by the Seven Evil Martens can sometimes even affect the elders in the Refinement and Fusion stages.
However, He Lekang, who was only in the early stage of the Golden Elixir Realm, was not affected at all. But think about it, he was the one who was detected by the bureau.
All I can say is that everything is both reasonable and unexpected.
He Lekang didn't see the people coming. He was fighting hard when the two black and ferocious little creatures in front of him suddenly fell to the ground with foam at the mouth.
He Lekang: “???”
What happened? ?
He Lekang, who was in doubt, turned his head warily when he heard footsteps.
Then he saw two graceful figures walking towards him.
He Lekang put down his sword: "Zixia Dao... Daoist Master."
Yan Xia: "Just call me fellow Taoist."
He Lekang lowered his head: "No, it's not appropriate."
Yan Xia looked at the other person’s red ears: “…………”
For some reason, there was a weird feeling that the child wanted to call him uncle, but he forced the child to call him brother.
God knows that he is only a few years older than others, but he seems to be a generation older.
Yan Xia gave up on correcting the question: "Are you not hurt?"
He Lekang shook his head.
Yan Xia: "Okay, let's go and see if there's anyone else nearby."
As He Lekang followed him, he felt as if he had forgotten something important.
Until he saw...
The Seven Evil Martens, whom he had just barely managed to resist with all his strength, only had a face-to-face encounter with the two men in front of him before it fell to the ground and died as if it had been seriously injured.
He Lekang: “!!!”
His big eyes widened even wider, filled with awe and admiration!!
The two Taoist priests...are so awesome!!
Yan Xia and Yan Ji felt the admiring gazes of the children: “…………”
How should I put it? Just...
I feel quite embarrassed.
There is a sense of déjà vu that you think there is a big pearl in the clam, but it is actually a glass ball.
However, after going through so many things, the most important thing is stability.
Yan Xia held his head high and chest out all the way, with an attitude of 'Yes, I am very awesome'.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain why this little black creature that kills people without being seen fell to the ground as soon as it saw him.
Anyway, too much debt is not a burden, and if there are too many misunderstandings, let them continue to be misunderstandings.
Yan Xia and his eldest brother led the younger disciples from other sects, and picked up many people along the way as if they were strolling in their own backyard.
At first, all of the people who were picked up stood there with dull eyes, and the expressions on their faces showed either painful struggle or heartbreak. In any case, none of them had an easy time.
At the moment the Seven Evil Martens fell to the ground, their dull eyes gradually regained clarity, and the expressions on their faces turned into a unified expression of relief for surviving the disaster.
The final result was... there were more people following He Lekang with their eyes wide open.
No one said anything, but just followed quietly, eyes wide open, as if they were watching an incredible show.
The same situation happened to Su Wenyin. The family was divided into two groups, and the team was gradually becoming larger.
Except for the four people in the lead, both groups had the same mentality...
These Taoist priests are so terrifying!!
I can subdue the monster without even having to do anything! !
As the fog nearby dissipated more and more, after Yan Xia killed three or four clans of the Seven Evil Martens, he finally met Pei Xian amidst He Lekang's increasingly anxious expression.
Pei Xian was different from others. She did not stand there blankly with a painful expression.
He just brandished his sword with a righteous look on his face, muttering: "Swing it ten thousand more times, swing it ten thousand more times..."
Yan Xia: “…………”
As expected of the eldest sister of a big sect, she is a king of rolls in the illusion.
Some casual cultivators at the back: “…………”
The people from the big sects are also so terrifying. It is better to be a casual cultivator. No...
Several great Taoist priests are also independent practitioners.
This world leaves no way for ordinary cultivators like them to survive.
Two more Seven Evil Martens fell to the ground, and Pei Xian slowly woke up from the illusion.
Yan Xia, who was closest to the opponent, clearly saw that the other party's hand that was swinging the sword was shaking.
It's easy to imagine that a lot of time has passed by now. Daoist Fellow Pei Xian has been swinging his sword since he came here, and his biceps may have been developed.
Pei Xian's expression was a little unnatural, as if she was gritting her teeth and holding on, but fortunately she held on, using the last bit of her remaining strength to avoid dropping the sword on the ground.
Yan Xia's eyes understood.
There are so many people here, we can’t lose face for the sect.
Pei Xian thanked him in a very formal manner, but when he clasped his hands together, the height of the hand he raised was obviously not as high as before.
Yan Xia waved his hand to indicate that he accepted the tiring gift and that rest was more important.
After adding another member to the team, Yan Xia finally found Jia Fugui, who was teleported to a remote place, just when he was about to reunite with his mother.
Ever since his mother demonstrated her ability to break through two levels effortlessly, this fellow Taoist's presence has become particularly low.
From the occasional glances they had exchanged before, Yan Xia understood what the other person was thinking.
It's nothing more than a different mentality, and they may have undergone several major changes in each other's hearts.
From the 'friendly fellow Taoist' at the entrance of the secret realm, to later when he broke through to the early Nascent Soul stage, it probably became 'a bit powerful, seems different from what I imagined, not sure, let's wait and see'.
And in the end, it might be... 'How could such a terrifying boss come from? I feel a little unworthy to be around him.'
But no matter how he changes, this person should not have any dark emotions.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to sit on the ground and settle accounts in this illusion...
Under a big tree, this is the scene Yan Xia saw when he arrived with his men. Jia Fugui was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his eyes dull, holding a stone in his hand as an abacus, and kept muttering: "Why is it wrong? How did I get it wrong again? It's impossible, I'm good at math."
A minute later, Jia Fugui, who had regained consciousness in front of everyone, said: “…………”
Fortunately, fortunately he didn't do anything else, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
but…………
Hiss, my head hurts.
Yan Xia glanced at Pei Xian and saw an expression of sympathy on the other's face.
One arm hurts, the other head hurts.
I can only say that they are all simple and hardworking people.
Every time at this time, there would be people who felt ashamed and would lower their heads very low, as if they wished they could make a hole in their chest to crawl into.
For example, there is a casual cultivator who regards trees as beauties. Now everyone knows that he wants to find a Taoist partner but has never been able to find one.
Everyone's story is unique and varied. Along the way, Yan Xia has seen many big dramas.
When the fog dissipated and was almost invisible, the two large forces joined together.
Before the two sides could exchange information, a magnificent palace suddenly appeared before their eyes.
I don’t know if it was already here and was just obscured by the fog, or if it suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Under the sunlight, it looks particularly luxurious.
"Is this where the Wuliang Patriarch lived when he was alive?"
"Since there really is a palace in the secret realm, can we get out right away?"
"This must be it. This must be the exit. Woohoo, I can finally get out. I miss my master."
Some people in the crowd couldn't stop being excited. Perhaps it was because they were too excited or the palace was too dazzling, but few people noticed that all the flowers, plants and trees around the palace were rotting.
One is luxurious and gorgeous, the other is barren, it seems a bit inconsistent no matter how you look at it.
The excited voices gradually calmed down.
The scene that appeared outside the fog before was played out again, and everyone looked towards Yan Xia and the others.
Ms. Su waved her hand and uttered that classic line.
"I'm already here."
After she finished speaking, she flew to the gate of the palace on her sword. The people behind her quickly followed her example as if they were afraid of being left behind.
When they got closer, they found that the palace was even taller than what they had just seen from a distance.
This magnificent palace was even more luxurious than they had imagined. After a quick look around, Yan Xia only noticed one thing.
If everything in the secret realm can be taken away, then...
Can we also pick out the gem on this pillar? !
There is a night-shining pearl in the dragon head on the dragon throne. Is it possible to take it? !
Thinking so, he did it. Yan Xia took out his small dagger first and with a few strikes, he got a gem on the pillar.
Su Wenyin patted the back of her cub's head with a smile: "You are worthy of being my cub, well done!"
After saying that, he took out a dagger and returned it to Yan Ji and Yan Feiyue, and threw two of them, and asked people to grab other pillars.
The others who were still looking around: “………………”
Why is this necessary? This thing is useless. It is not as useful for cultivation as the spirit stone.
Someone accidentally muttered this, and Yan Xia, who heard it, asked back, "Isn't this valuable?"
That shouldn't be the case. According to his information, gems are still hard currency among mortals in this world who cannot practice cultivation.
Jia Fugui, who had seen things more clearly in the past two days, continued, "It's valuable. Many ordinary businessmen recognize it."
Yan Xia was satisfied, and he said, how could there be anyone who doesn't like gems?
The sect disciple who just focused on cultivation and accidentally muttered: "..."
He was reckless.
The family of four worked hard to pry the pillars and the ground, leaving the others who had already looked around the environment standing there looking at each other, as if they were being punished, motionless and at a loss as to what to do.
If others don't leave, they dare not leave either.
Who knows if there will be unknown dangers waiting for them? Having come to this point, everyone cherishes their lives.
In the end, no one knew who took the lead in helping to pry up another pillar full of gems.
Once there is a leader, everything else becomes natural.
There is strength in numbers, and this saying is fully reflected here.
Because some people couldn't get a spot, they even pried up the floor. Of course, before doing that, they went to ask Yan Xia.
Yan Xia said...
Everyone is welcome, this floor is valuable.
A quarter of an hour later, the huge and magnificent palace turned gray.
Yan Xia smiled as he pretended to accept the things that everyone helped him pry open, and kept saying that they were very polite.
It made him feel a little embarrassed for being so rude.
When Yan Xia was halfway through her preparation, she inexplicably felt that the empty palace seemed to shake.
Yan Xia shook his head. He didn’t care whether it shook or not. Even if the sky fell, he still had his mother to hold it up.
The key is that they should not lose money on this trip.
They have only pried open one palace. The palace is so huge. If they pry open every palace, wouldn't they spend all their capital?
Today he is just an ordinary little clever boy.
