Chapter 536: Finding Yueshan
There was more than one small house ahead, but Tao Zi instinctively locked onto one of them at a glance.
Tao Zi walked forward step by step. When she passed by the elderly people, she bowed cautiously and said, "Excuse me."
Most of the elderly people pretended to be deaf and heard nothing. Only one old man looked at her with a smile and said with emotion: "The demonic energy is strong, but the killing intent is not strong. Not bad, not bad."
Hearing this, Tao Zi bowed again before continuing to move forward.
When she reached the door of the hut, her body tensed to the extreme and she knocked tentatively.
With a "click", the door slowly opened, as if someone inside was holding the handle, waiting for her to knock on the door.
There was no one behind the door, only old doors on the wall.
The old man's hoarse voice sounded: "Child, choose any door. If you are not destined to be with it, please leave."
I only hear voices but don't see anyone.
Tao Zi chose one of the doors almost without hesitation and pushed it open.
Inside the door, there is another world.
In the center stood a transparent coffin, bound tightly by countless transparent silk threads that extended in all directions, eventually converging on another person.
Yue Shan was lying in the coffin with his eyes closed, and his luck was flowing into the man through the silk thread.
Tao Zi's face changed drastically, and she wanted to attack immediately, but the senior body cultivator suddenly appeared and stopped her, saying in a low voice: "Tao Zi, don't do it."
She stopped abruptly. About a quarter of an hour later, the silk threads disappeared one by one, and the coffin slowly fell down. The man was meditating on the spot without opening his eyes.
Tao Zi rushed to the coffin, but did not dare to open the coffin lid easily, for fear that the coffin was protecting Yue Shan's life.
At this moment, the man finally slowly opened his eyes. He looked young, but his voice was as hoarse as a seventy-year-old man.
"Little girl, take him away."
Tao Zi turned to look at him and said, "Excuse me, Senior, why is this happening?"
The man's eyes were calm and indifferent. "He was born with the destiny of the Heavenly Lord. He must not fall into the hands of foreigners. We are but dying men. It is our destiny to save him. Don't worry, his luck will remain with us. We are only using it temporarily."
Tao Zi turned to look at Yue Shan who was sleeping in the coffin, and looked at him again: "Senior..."
Before she could finish her words, the senior continued, "Remember, if he falls into the hands of an alien race, it is better to kill him directly than to let him be used by them."
Tao Zi wanted to say something, but the senior waved his hand and sent her out.
She went back outside with a coffin beside her.
The old man who had greeted her before said something slowly to the other old men and walked towards her.
"Little girl, can you help me with a little favor?"
"Senior has done me a great favor, why would you need to use the word 'help'?"
She agreed without hesitation. By now, even a fool would have realized that these people were saving Yueshan.
"We are not doing this for you, nor for him. You don't need to consider this as a favor."
As he spoke, a sword appeared out of thin air in the old man's hand, and he said, "Young lady, please take this sword back to Jianshan."
She paused for a moment, then carefully accepted the sword. Without further questioning, she simply said, "Please rest assured, Senior. I will definitely return this sword."
Afterwards, other elderly people also slowly came over.
A Buddhist scripture, a medicine box, a big knife...
The names of various sects appeared in her ears, including the destroyed Xulan Palace.
The woman holding the Xulan Palace token said, "I know that the sect has been destroyed. Please bury this token in the ruins of the sect."
Tao Zi was silent for a moment, then whispered, "There are survivors in Xulan Palace. Do we need to hand them over to them?"
A relieved smile appeared on the elder's aged face. He said, "There are survivors? That's all very well, but you don't have to hand them over to them. However, if they get into trouble in the future, please help them out, little girl, for today's sake."
She said solemnly: "This is natural."
One of the elders warned, "After you leave, don't talk about what happened today. The person in this coffin can only be an ordinary demon cultivator. Do you understand?"
"yes."
As soon as she agreed, a restriction appeared in the dark.
Tao Zi knew that with this restriction, once she left this place, she would not be able to tell anyone who didn't know about the situation here.
"Go ahead."
I don't know which old man spoke, but Tao Zi was sent out.
After coming out, Senior Physical Cultivator sighed.
"senior?"
Perhaps due to restrictions, the senior could only offer some general knowledge: "Those born with the destiny of the Heavenly Venerable have extraordinary luck and are difficult to disguise. If one wishes to disguise it, one can only take three-tenths of their luck and supplement it with the luck and cultivation of several powerful individuals."
Tao Zi suddenly turned around and looked at that place, bowing deeply in silence.
The body cultivator senior continued, "But one thing is certain: their lifespans have already reached their end, and they're only being sustained by this barrier. Furthermore, they have unidentified marks within their bodies, and this barrier suppresses them. Death might be a kind of liberation for them. Tao Zi, your strength is still insufficient. If you take another step forward, you'll be able to sense all this without me having to explain it."
Tao Zi said: "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
They brought the transparent coffin back to the funeral ship and found that the expressions of the two brothers were very ugly.
After seeing her come back, Cheng Wuchou breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked nervously: "A Zi, are you okay?"
"It's okay, what happened?"
Cheng Wuchou explained: "As soon as you stepped into that place, the little ghost lost contact with you."
Tao Zi was a little surprised, but also felt it was reasonable, so she just said, "It's okay, there's no danger inside."
After making sure his sister was fine, Cheng Wuchou turned his gaze to the transparent coffin, while Cheng Luo had already circled the coffin several times.
Although Cheng Wuchou couldn't sense whether the person in the coffin was alive or dead, he knew the result from Tao Zi's calm expression and only asked, "Can you open it?"
At this moment, the body cultivator senior appeared and said, "It's best to wait until he wakes up on his own. Don't destroy the coffin."
Cheng Wuchou glanced at the coffin thoughtfully and said, "What's so wonderful about it?"
"It can suppress or even weaken the murderous intent of the demon cultivators and help them maintain their sanity."
As soon as Senior Ti Xiu finished speaking, Cheng Wuchou's eyes lit up, and then he looked at his sister silently.
Tao Zi inexplicably understood the meaning behind her brother's expression and said helplessly, "I don't need it."
My brother nodded and said, "I understand. The more you care, the better."
Then, he directly asked the physical cultivation senior about the material composition and production method of the coffin.
Tao Zi wanted to say something but stopped herself, and finally followed her brother.
I can't persuade him anyway.
No one noticed that on the ground, a large transfer formation was in effect, connected to the northern part of the Demon Realm.
