After countless hardships, Guo Yiming finally escaped from the Dragon Breeding Pond, but he was seriously injured and exhausted, and urgently needed to find a safe place to recuperate. So, his first stop on the journey into the Immortal Palace was the dense and deep jungle.
However, fate often plays tricks on us. Shortly after entering the jungle, Guo Yiming inexplicably angered the powerful demon Ju Mang! Faced with such a formidable foe, the severely injured Guo Yiming had no choice but to flee at all costs. During his escape, many larger creatures, startled, reappeared, seemingly wary of Ju Mang's relentless pursuit. Upon surfacing, they immediately withdrew their presence, refusing to provoke him.
He was able to escape the pursuit of the great demon Ju Mang because he carried numerous talismans. It turned out that the great demon Ju Mang was a transformation of plants and trees that had cultivated their Dao and was naturally afraid of blazing flames. Guo Yiming happened to have many fire talismans on him. This was why Su Rui later witnessed the astonishing scene of Guo Yiming using fire talismans to split the mountain and clear a path.
As for Guo Yiming's poisoning, it wasn't caused by Ju Mang. In fact, while fleeing in a panic, he stumbled into a peach forest and contracted the deadly peach blossom miasma. Fortunately, a divine blessing granted Guo Yiming a magical talisman that protected his heart and soul. With his tenacious willpower, he managed to survive until his encounter with Su Rui.
From the moment he entered the Langya Immortal Residence, Guo Yiming seemed to have embarked on an endless journey of "overcoming tribulations," one crisis after another. The once gentle and humble young Taoist priest was now depressed by the successive tribulations.
After listening to his experience, Su Rui couldn't help but feel sympathy. He comforted him and suggested that he go explore the courtyard. Although there were many restricted rooms there, it was still safer than the jungle.
But looking at the man's eyes, filled with desire, determination, and resolve as he gazed towards the jungle, Su Rui knew full well that he would most likely not accept his proposal. However, whether Guo Yiming would listen to his advice or not was up to him. After all, as a fellow traveler, Su Rui had done his utmost to warn him. Continuing to persuade him would have seemed a bit nosy.
After explaining this to Guo Yiming, Su Rui turned his attention to the chessboard in the center of the pavilion. Within the special space created by the chessboard, Minglang and the other four were tightly surrounded by the remaining pieces, daring not to make a single move. They all looked gaunt, their faces etched with obvious anxiety.
Seeing Su Rui suddenly appear outside the Go board, Minglang gnashed his teeth in anger, but he obediently took out the Five Elements Qi and several precious elixirs. The other three followed suit. Seeing this, Su Rui couldn't help but curl his lips slightly, revealing a sly smile. Then, with a casual wave of his hand, he released the Go space's restraints, collected the Five Elements Qi and the dozen or so elixirs the four had handed over, and finally, contentedly, released the four people trapped in the Go space.
"Su Qinghe, remember this. I will avenge you sooner or later!" Minglang, who had just regained his freedom, shouted at Su Rui fiercely. After that, he did not forget to glance at Guo Yiming who was standing beside him with a deep look in his eyes.
After Minglang uttered these words viciously, the four of them fled from Guanlan Pavilion with their tails between their legs and covered in dust, like dogs that had lost their homes.
In stark contrast to their arrogant demeanor upon arriving, they now dared not even set foot in the courtyard, instead sprinting directly towards the dense jungle beyond. Their panicked desperation suggested they feared Su Rui had set a trap or ambush within the courtyard. After all, they had already suffered a heavy loss; daring in again could lead to even greater defeat. The jungle, by comparison, was vast, making it far more difficult to set up a defense within such a vast area. Therefore, fleeing there seemed to be the safest and most reliable option for them.
Su Rui ignored them. After collecting the Five Elements Qi and the elixir, he pulled out the clay pot he had obtained from the macaque demon and handed it to Guo Yiming, who was standing there in a daze. He said, "This is the fruit wine I got from a trade with a great demon in the depths of the wild jungle. There's only a little left. The peach blossom miasma you had before was relieved by this fruit wine. If you ever have to enter that wild jungle again in the future, this fruit wine might be of great help to you!"
Guo Yiming was completely stunned by Su Rui's sudden release of the four people from Kunlun Sect. When he heard Su Rui's words, he immediately came to his senses, quickly took the peach blossom miasma wine handed to him by Su Rui, and thanked Su Rui with gratitude.
Su Rui seemed very free and easy. He waved his hand casually, then turned and walked towards the mound platform.
On the high platform of the earthen mound, Su Rui solemnly took out the ancient and mysterious "ugly" token. As he gently waved the token, a powerful energy wave suddenly erupted.
Instantly, a massive rip appeared in the sky, and endless starlight poured down like a tide. Above Su Rui's head, 365 dazzling stars suddenly appeared. They hung in the sky like bright lanterns, emitting a terrifying light.
These stars are not static, but slowly rotate along some strange celestial path. Each star gleams with its own unique brilliance, interweaving and reflecting each other to form a magnificent painting. Standing within it, one can almost feel the vastness and boundlessness of the universe.
