Chapter 73: Rebellion against the Immortals (14) “Your Immortal Lord Miao Miao is going to die. …
Xuanxiu's eyes are so alluring.
When it stares at you silently, it's like a kitten walking by you intentionally or unintentionally, its tail brushing across your palm, and then tentatively curling around your wrist little by little.
Soft, itchy...in short, very tempting.
Who taught him this?
Ming Yao cleared his throat twice.
The noise outside the door grew louder. Mingyao wrapped himself in the quilt and smiled pleadingly, "Something big is happening. It would be inappropriate for us not to be there."
Their eyes met in a stalemate for a moment.
It is rare for Immortal Lord Miaomiao to persist.
Mingyao was helpless, searching for the few words he had to coax her out of her, finally coming up with an excuse: "Miaomiao, I just want to be serious. We mortals still have to go through the formalities of marriage, like three letters and six engagements. You can't ask me to agree right away; it would seem like I'm not serious enough."
The tiny "kitten" in front of him twitched its tail and looked bright. It was easily fooled, but somewhat unwilling to accept it. It looked away, slowly stood up, put on its clothes, and whimpered, demanding a promise: "Ayao, please don't lie to me."
So easy to cheat.
It had to be said that seeing Xuanxiu so easily deceived piqued Mingyao's evil intentions. In a moment of daring, he rubbed his head and teased his chin, like a king teasing his concubine. He boldly promised, "I'll cheat on anyone else, but not you."
Seeing the man's eyes darken, like a kitten about to turn into a little fox, Mingyao quickly turned his face away and pushed him out, "Go out and wait for me."
Fortunately, Xuanxiu listened obediently.
Mingyao breathed a sigh of relief, and after driving the people out, he began to put on his coat slowly.
With the experience of Xuan Hui breaking through the realm last time, Ming Yao was not in a hurry at this moment.
It took Xuan Hui two days to break through to the level of the God Transformation Realm.
Now that Xianshu has broken through to the Mahayana stage, it will probably take him even longer. Even if he rushes there early now, he will just be standing below, waiting for his eyes to hurt from the lightning and thunder.
And... most likely, Xianshu won't be able to survive this disaster.
If one truly reaches the Mahayana realm, at the very least, a record of him should be left in the immortal mountain scriptures.
Open the door and go out.
The disaster has arrived.
The place chosen by Xianshu, like many other monks, was located in the back mountains, far away from temples and people.
However, dark clouds covered most of the sky, low and heavy, as if threatening to crush the immortal mountain. Thunder and lightning clashed, and the wind was noisy. The cultivators scattered across the immortal mountain, watching Xianshu's tribulation, though still some distance away, all wore solemn expressions. Perhaps it was the power of heaven that forced them to submit, and some cultivators with lower cultivation levels even felt unsteady on their feet.
Mingyao was fine. He just felt the lightning and thunder were a little scary, but not to the point where he couldn't stand steadily.
"Miaomiao."
She shouted forward.
Xuanxiu turned around, and against the backdrop of the sky full of lightning, Mingyao felt for the first time that Xuanxiu was a little less popular. He faced the heavenly tribulation with no fear, no admiration, and no emotion at all. Only when he saw her, his gaze softened, and some emotions surged out.
Jog over.
Mingyao stared at him for a while, then stood on tiptoe and leaned close to his ear. The rumbling thunder was disturbing, and she was afraid that he couldn't hear clearly: "Miaomiao Immortal Lord, do you think Xianshu can survive this thunder tribulation?"
"According to common sense, you can get through it." Xuanxiu nodded slightly, giving an answer that Mingyao did not expect.
"This thunder tribulation isn't a true test for the Mahayana realm," Xuanxiu patiently explained to her, "Xuanqing has also survived this thunder tribulation before."
"I'm observing the spiritual energy surrounding Xianshu now. His current cultivation level is no less than Xuanqing's later, so I guess it won't be a problem for him to survive this thunder tribulation."
"But after enduring the thunder tribulation, his cultivation will reach its ceiling. The spiritual power here will no longer be of much use to him, and he will begin to disperse. If he can survive it, he will make further progress. If not, he will die after three years of thunder tribulation."
"Most monks die at this stage, and only a small number of them can achieve enlightenment and ascend."
"So harsh." Ming Yao felt that it was unfair.
She looked up at the horizon and could only see a small dark shadow on the horizon.
To be honest, Mingyao didn't like Xianshu very much. One reason was that she rarely spent time with him and could not be considered a friend. Their relationship was not close. Another reason was because of the incident with the little light ball. Over the years, she had always had a vague hostility towards him.
She rarely hates someone. Xuanxiu noticed it keenly and asked her several times. However, in the illusion, Mingyao didn't want to tell the whole story about the little light ball, so she didn't talk to Xuanxiu in detail. Instead, this made Xuanxiu suspicious. It seemed that he thought she had other ideas about Xianshu, so he openly and secretly prevented her from meeting Xianshu.
But I have to say that over the years, Xianshu has worked very hard in practicing.
In order to ascend to heaven, he tried his best in every secret realm and every monster, often falling covered in blood at the gate of the fairy mountain, and was in danger of death several times.
Especially after Chu Dianqing and Xuan Qing got married, perhaps feeling the oppression of the Xuan family, which was originally a semi-immortal body, Xianshu practiced desperately, almost to the point of madness.
Yan Chen was very dissatisfied with this, and the two of them had argued about it countless times.
The most intense quarrel Mingyao remembered was probably when the two of them were still in the Nascent Soul stage, and they entered the Blood Sea Secret Realm together with some independent cultivators and fellow disciples in the Immortal Mountain.
It is said that in this secret realm there is a golden elixir left behind by an ancient immortal beast after it dispersed. It is extremely precious and there are many cultivators. In order to obtain the golden elixir, they have to rely on the so-called immortal fate which is hard to touch or see, as well as their own abilities.
With the immortal mountain guarding outside, there are very few people who are cunning and deceitful.
After a contest, the winner was Yan Chen.
Although Yan Chen was not as interested in cultivating immortals as Xian Shu, who doesn't like to win? So he entered the sea of blood in the secret realm, wanting to get the elixir.
The accident happened here.
The moment Yan Chen touched the elixir, a restriction as light as a cicada's wing was triggered around the elixir.
The sudden burst of demonic power swept across the entire secret realm.
It's a monster.
An ancient monster, descended from the Kuiniu, it is rumored to have been exiled seven thousand miles into the deep sea.
After being imprisoned for tens of thousands of years, even if his strength has been weakened to this extent, it is still beyond the reach of an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.
The elixir is real, but it is not a treasure from the secret realm.
But it is bait used by monsters to lure food.
In the chaos, the elixir fell beside the monster.
Yan Chen didn't have time to pick it up, and the first moment he reacted was to pull Xianshu away.
The appearance of this monster was beyond everyone's expectations, including Xuyou Xianshan, who was in charge of guarding the secret realm.
The monks were cut off from the outside world.
The exit of the secret realm can only last less than an incense stick of time.
The distance between the two of them and the exit was such that one incense stick would be enough to escape from the monster.
Yan Chen was very nervous and had just run for a while, pulling Xian Shu with him. With a swish, the half of his sleeve that was being pulled was cut by Xian Shu. He turned around without looking back and headed back towards the monster.
Crazy.
Among the monks who were fleeing in all directions, he was the only one who ran back in the opposite direction.
Yan Chen grabbed the sleeve cloth in his hand, and after being stunned for a few breaths, he gritted his teeth and ran towards the exit.
She knew why Xianshu turned back.
He would even sacrifice his life for the fallen elixir.
But she would not go crazy with him.
Tears fell down, childhood sweethearts, a perfect couple, eventually went their separate ways.
Yan Chen was among the first people to escape from the secret realm.
Although he was harsh in words, he was still worried about Xianshu in his heart.
She stayed at the exit of the secret realm and didn't leave. It was not a long time, but it was extremely painful.
When Xianshu flew out of the exit covered in blood, clutching the elixir, she thought it was an illusion.
It wasn't until she heard someone around her calling his name that she woke up from her dream.
He stepped forward, wanting to see his injuries.
But Xianshu's first reaction when he looked up and saw her was not to cry with joy, nor to comfort her, nor to say any sweet words.
He stuffed the elixir into his mouth and swallowed it.
"This is mine." He was seriously injured and unconscious. He muttered these four words and fell headfirst.
Yan Chen couldn't understand why Xian Shu felt that she wanted to compete with him for this, nor did he understand why Xian Shu was so obsessed with it.
The two had a big fight.
Xianshu couldn't open his mouth to explain, but Mingyao knew what he was thinking.
The carrot of "one person ascends to heaven in a thousand years" was dangling in front of him. He was surrounded by "tigers and wolves" and his hands were stained with the blood of his fellow disciples. He had no way to retreat, so he could only exert more and more strength, and slowly his eyes were focused on the carrot dangling in front of him.
Generally speaking, he and Yan Chen are not the same kind of people.
In the lightning, Xian Shu was alone, and he didn't know whether Yan Chen was following him to protect him with a hypocritical attitude.
Mingyao pondered secretly, wondering why there were no cultivators practicing the Way of Ruthlessness here.
If there is such a way, I think it would be very suitable for Xianshu.
As for Immortal Lord Miaomiao, Mingyao tilted his head and thought for a while. If he also needed to practice, he should enter the mortal world.
It is more suitable for an immortal to enter the mortal world and break the Tao with love.
Xuanxiu noticed her distraction and saw that she was staring at the lightning. He asked knowingly, "What are you looking at, Yao?"
Mingyao came back to his senses, and this time he made up a familiar excuse: "I'm reading the Envy Book of Breaking Through Realms. However, I can obviously control my immortal energy, so why can't I understand what you mean by spiritual energy being full?"
Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, they diverted the attention of Immortal Lord Miaomiao.
"Ayao, do you want to learn? It's very easy." Xuanxiu curled his lips and reached out to shake her hand. "It's just that you are not well yet, so I can't borrow your body to learn."
Mingyao sensed something fishy from his words and subconsciously wanted to pull back, but was stopped by Immortal Lord Miaomiao with his quick eyes and hands.
After failing to escape, Mingyao could only follow up and ask him, "Then how do I learn?"
"Let your soul enter my body." Xuanxiu interlocked his fingers with hers, "Use the immortal power as a guide."
This...what kind of method is this? It sounds weird.
Her spirit inhabited his body.
Why do I feel so lewd... Mingyao's face felt a little hot, he rubbed his face and refused righteously: "No."
"Why?"
"Because..." At the critical moment, Mingyao thought of Chao Qulai, "Have you forgotten? My soul is still imprisoned and cannot enter your body."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mingyao clearly saw that Immortal Lord Miaomiao's expression turned unfriendly.
Mingyao, who had aroused the hatred for Chao Qulai, felt no psychological burden.
Standing on tiptoe, he patted Xuanxiu's shoulder with his other hand: "It's okay, I'm not that thirsty for knowledge."
Mingyao was somewhat smug after winning the battle again.
I was just thinking about whether I should go find Yan Chen to chat or something to pass this difficult time.
The thunder scattered in the distance suddenly gathered together and struck down fiercely at one point.
A dull and inexplicably harsh sound resounded through the sky.
Then the clouds and fog dissipated.
"It's done! Immortal Xianshu has done it!"
A flash of golden light appeared, and majestic spiritual energy rose from the back mountain.
So fast? How long had it been? Did these ten mirrors speed up the process again? Or was Xianshu's tribulation passage this fast to begin with?
Mingyao was a little surprised. Before he could come to his senses, he heard Xuanxiu's voice beside his ear: "Ayao, I need to confirm something."
Mingyao glanced sideways: "Me with you?"
Hearing this, Xuanxiu paused.
Mingyao immediately understood that it was probably inconvenient.
Have your own secrets? Mingyao felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about this.
However, just as Mingyao felt a slight bitterness in his heart, he was startled and suppressed the emotion in time, feeling panic.
He waved his hand, trying to hide his mistake: "Forget it, you go first."
There was no time to see Xuanxiu's expression.
After saying that, he hurried back to the house without looking back.
After entering the house, Mingyao leaned against the door and slowly sat down beside it. Recalling the strange emotion just now, Mingyao confirmed it again and again and found that it was really a bit bad.
This game, which cannot be called love, seems to be taken seriously by her.
There were a few soft knocks on the door.
Mingyao was feeling uneasy when he heard someone knocking on the door. He thought it was Xuanxiu and hesitated for a moment.
But she heard a female voice calling her——
"Miss Mingyao, I have a deal I want to discuss with you. Can you open the door?"
It sounded familiar. Mingyao thought for a moment and remembered that the voice outside the door seemed a bit like Chu Dianqing.
However, she still didn't open the door.
The person outside seemed to guess what she was thinking. After chuckling twice, he said, "Ms. Mingyao, it's natural for you to be wary of me."
"I can give you a piece of news for free as a token of my sincerity."
"In three hours, your Immortal Lord Miao Miao will die. If you want him to live, go and save him quickly. You know the way to the Xuyou Palace on Xianshan Mountain."
