Afterwards, Xu Sheng’s consciousness fell into a dark space.
In it, he saw that the glittering Book of Eternal Worlds had turned another page, indicating that Xu Sheng's bloodline remained in the world and he was preparing for his next reincarnation.
Then Xu Sheng fell into a deep sleep.
Xu Sheng thought that when he woke up, he would be in his mother's womb like every time he was reincarnated before.
He even thought about finding an excuse to leave his father and mother and go to Wanxianmen to find Mu Hongling after he was born.
He will no longer be Mu Hongling's disciple in this life.
The relationship between the two will no longer be that of master and disciple, and they can now openly become Taoist companions!
However, when the ninth life really began, Xu Sheng was immediately confused!
Because this time he found himself in a turtle egg!
"So I was reincarnated as a turtle in this life?"
Xu Sheng was speechless and thought to himself: "Who among my descendants actually got married to a turtle?!"
After this, Xu Sheng could only sigh that his descendants were so capable!
He guessed that it was a turtle that had transformed into a human and had mate with its own offspring.
There will still be reproductive isolation between demons that have not cultivated into human form and humans.
At this time, Xu Sheng didn't know whether his bloodline was born from the union of one of his female descendants and a male turtle demon who cultivated into a human body, or from the union of one of his male descendants and a female turtle demon who cultivated into a human body.
Anyway, Xu Sheng has been reincarnated as a turtle now!
At this time Xu Sheng found that there was no one around him!
Even his father and mother were not by his side.
Xu Sheng was the only one left at the scene.
Xu Sheng guessed that something might have happened to his father and mother.
So he placed his turtle egg in this place.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter! After all, if you cultivate to the Dharma Realm, you should be able to cultivate into a human body!"
Afterwards, Xu Sheng thought to himself, "I am only two small realms away from the Dharma Realm!"
In this world of cultivating immortals, ordinary monsters need to cultivate to the Dharma Realm if they want to transform into human forms.
Because Xu Sheng inherited the cultivation from his previous life.
So he was already in the late Nascent Soul stage when he was born!
As long as he continues to practice and improve, first reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul Mirror, then overcoming the inner demon calamity, he will be able to reach the initial stage of the Dharma Realm!
Then he can transform into a human form.
So no matter what species Xu Sheng is now.
In fact, there are no big problems.
It’s just that before cultivating to the Dharma Realm.
Xu Sheng estimated that as a demon, he could not return to Wanxian Mountain to see Mu Hongling.
Of course Xu Sheng guessed that Mu Hongling should have seen the letter he left behind.
Therefore, Mu Hongling probably chose to use the Great Sleeping Technique to fall into a deep sleep.
In this way, Xu Sheng still has time to improve himself slowly.
"Where are you now? Which immortal sect is ruling this area?"
Afterwards Xu Sheng thought to himself.
But I can't figure it out.
Of course, Xu Sheng felt that he was no longer in the area ruled by Wanxianmen.
It is very likely that it has already fled to the areas ruled by other immortal sects.
After all, Xu Sheng's bloodline has been multiplying for so many years.
Some people have even combined with turtles!
There's nothing strange about running to areas ruled by other immortal sects.
Of course, Xu Sheng noticed at this time that there were still relatively many spirit stones placed around the turtle eggs.
He guessed that it was left by his turtle mother.
These spirit stones are not that many.
But it is definitely enough to nurture this egg to maturity and birth.
Then Xu Sheng stopped thinking about it.
It concentrates on absorbing the spiritual stones outside the egg and continues to grow.
More than ten years passed like this.
Xu Shengcai finally grew to the point where he could break out of the eggshell.
“Crack!”
As the eggshell cracks.
A tiny turtle came out.
It was Xu Sheng.
"It feels so weird to be a turtle..."
Xu Sheng breathed in the air outside the eggshell.
Then Xu Sheng discovered that he had been staying in a gourd magic weapon with its own space.
So before, Xu Sheng couldn’t see the sun or the moon.
However, the previous spirit stones were able to supplement various nutrients.
Anyway, Xu Sheng was born safely now.
Afterwards, Xu Sheng found himself inside a gourd magical instrument.
He mobilized his magical power and his body shook, flying up from the bottom and breaking through the stopper at the mouth of the gourd and drilling out.
Then Xu Sheng discovered that the gourd magic weapon was buried more than a thousand meters underground.
So at this moment, there was mud all around Xu Sheng's black body.
But this is naturally not a problem for Xu Sheng.
He moved through the mud easily.
After all, Xu Sheng is now a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage and he doesn't know what kind of turtle he is, but he feels that even if he is not born with the cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul stage, he should be able to crawl out of the mud.
After carefully breaking out of the ground and looking around, Xu Sheng found himself in the backyard of a large house.
After Xu Sheng took a deep breath, he discovered that there was not much spiritual energy here. It did not seem like a place for cultivation in an immortal sect, but rather a bit like being in the mortal world.
At this time Xu Sheng heard the sound of a young man reading aloud.
Xu Sheng used his magical power to make the little turtle fly up from the ground and onto the beam near the window.
Looking into the room, I saw a bruised-faced boy of about fifteen or sixteen reading a book.
The young man was only wearing the most ordinary blue cloth clothes. After reading a few sentences of the book, he picked up the bowl of white porridge with pickles beside him and took a big sip.
This is an ordinary young man.
Xu Sheng immediately realized that he was indeed in the mortal world ruled by the immortal sect.
"What kind of emergency did my turtle mother encounter?"
Xu Sheng couldn't help but wonder, "Why did they bury a turtle egg like me here and walk away without leaving any other demon servants? If I were really a little turtle demon who knew nothing, and I was born in the human world and made a fuss, wouldn't I be captured immediately by the guardian sent by the immortal sect to the human world?"
No matter what, Xu Sheng now finds himself alone.
Of course he discovered that the gourd magic weapon underground was the center of a magic circle.
There are some other magical instruments underground that form a formation.
Constantly gathering some spiritual energy to the location of the gourd magic weapon.
But its efficiency in gathering spiritual energy is not very strong.
It is completely incomparable to the training environment Xu Sheng had in his previous life when he was a true disciple of Wanxian Sect.
But this is understandable. After all, this world of immortal cultivation is currently ruled by the immortal sect.
Only in the immortal gate can one naturally get the best cultivation environment and resources.
"This formation is exquisite!"
At this time, when Xu Sheng was exploring underground again, he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that my turtle mother is not an ordinary monster."
It is very unusual to be able to set up such a hidden spirit gathering formation in the mortal world that cannot be discovered by the disciples of the immortal sect!
This is doing something silently under the nose of the Immortal Sect!
It cannot be done without a certain level of attainment in battle formations and a lot of effort.
"Mr. Lin, how is it?"
At this moment, a group of people suddenly broke into the house. The leader, a young man in brocade clothes, holding a folding fan in his hand, asked, "Are you going to sell this house now?"
"Ximen Hao, those people who beat me up last night were sent by you, right?"
When the young man saw the bookish boy, he said angrily, "I don't sell your house, so you send some hooligans to beat me up in the middle of the night? I'm telling you, I'm a scholar with a good reputation. I've already gone to the government office to sue you!"
The mortal dynasties ruled by the immortal sects do not need to fight with other mortal dynasties on the battlefield, so the demand for warriors is relatively low.
But it is a difficult task to manage a larger number of ordinary people on a daily basis, so there is also an imperial examination system here to select talented people to manage the world.
"Mr. Lin, it's meaningless for you to say that. You said I sent someone to beat you up. What evidence do you have?"
But Ximen Hao was not panicked at all and just said: "If you don't have evidence, it's a false accusation! False accusation is also a crime! If you slander me like this, I will sue you for false accusation!"
Then Ximen Hao completely ignored Lin Xiucai and walked around the room, pushing down all the tables and chairs.
"I thought I had knocked you over soberly, but I didn't expect you to become stupid from studying!"
Ximen Hao then said coldly: "If that's the case, then there's nothing to say. I'm telling you, I'm determined to buy this house! If you don't sell it, you'll be in trouble!"
He also pointed his fan at the forehead of the young scholar named Lin.
Then he turned around and left with a group of people.
The young scholar Lin was left with a frown on his face.
Xu Sheng then understood why the young scholar he had just seen had a bruised face and nose.
Ximen Hao left not long ago.
Then a middle-aged man in a constable's uniform came with a knife.
"Captain Lu, please make the decision for me!"
Seeing this, Lin Xiucai immediately rushed over and complained: "That Ximen guy can't be so lawless, right? Is there any law?"
"Mr. Lin, it's not that we don't want to investigate the case, but we need evidence to investigate the case."
Captain Lu sighed and said, "You said someone broke into you at night and beat you up, but apart from the injuries on your body, there is no other evidence to prove that it was the Ximen family! The Ximen family is a well-known and prominent family in the local area. How do you think I can arrest them? Just based on our one-sided statements?"
After hearing this, Mr. Lin was speechless.
"If you ask me, Mr. Lin, what Mr. Ximen wants is your house."
接着陆捕头又说道:“你现在家里也没什么钱,你要上京赶考,路费什么的总得要吧?就靠你平时给人写一些字,画一些画,能弄到多少钱?且你现在得罪了西门公子,以后估计也没人在敢找你写字画画了!所以要我说,你干脆把这宅子卖了算了!”
“要不你就直接卖给那西门豪,要不你就卖给别人!”
陆捕头道:“让那西门豪得不到,气死他!如果你有意的话,我可以帮你联系其他的一些买主……”
反正陆捕头一番劝说。
“可这宅子我没法卖呀。”
林秀才则是皱眉叹息说道:“祖训难违啊!我们家有组训,不管遇到了什么样的情况都不可以卖这宅子,若我今日卖了,我百年之后有何颜面去见列祖列宗?”
陆捕头愕然询问为何如此,有何不能卖的?
“我家祖上曾救过一位上仙。”
林秀才解释说道:“上仙于此住过一段时间,反正因为如此,我家有祖训绝不能卖。”
“什么上仙?”
陆捕头摇摇头说道:“唯有我们万象宗里的那些真正的仙师们才能称之为上仙!你家以前遇到的估计是一个什么小散修!且这散修估计早就不知道哪年已经身死道消了!若不然,你们家会败落至此?林秀才,我话不多说了,我只说一句话,识时务者为俊杰。不然我也帮不了你!”
说完这陆捕头就离开了。
而在其离开的时候,许升催动法力让自己的小乌龟身体飞了出去悄无声息地贴在了其身上。
在大无相术笼罩之下,许升身体的颜色与陆捕头身上的衣服的颜色几乎溶于一体,让人看不出来许升就趴在他的背上。
这‘大无相术’、‘大沉眠术’、‘大饕餮术’等法门非常不一般,到了这修仙世界威能也还是很不凡。
不像是其他聊斋修真星球的法门到了这里就变得很低端。
许升估计这些法门另有来头!
可能聊斋修真星球还有他没有探索出来的其他秘密。
当然这些如今许升也没法去深究了。
总之此时许升跟随者陆捕头而行。
没多久果然看到陆捕头去跟那西门豪会合了。
许升又听了一番他们的交谈后才彻底了解了来龙去脉。
原来林秀才家这宅子附近准备要开发为商业区。
到时候这边肯定就会变得繁荣!
这西门豪家中在衙门里有关系。
所以早早就知道了这个消息。
因此才打林秀才祖宅的主意。
而这陆捕头也早就已经与这西门豪狼狈为奸。
“若这姓林的继续冥顽不灵,那就只能给他来点狠的了……”而之后西门公子还脸色狠厉地说着。
“再看看!”陆捕头也说道:“我骗他说可以不卖给您,但卖给其他人且价格还能更高一些,若他愿意,公子您便换个名义买过来!反正到时候这边一开发,您肯定百倍大赚!”
许升听到这里便也就不听下去转身悄悄飞回了林秀才家。
许升综合了所有的信息一番分析。
他明白林秀才口中所谓的当年的上仙应该就是他隐藏在凡俗人间生活的乌龟母亲。
而林家祖上应该是乌龟母亲的忠心的仆人。
之所以林家说要死守这宅子不卖定然是因为乌龟母亲花费大心血在地下布置的法阵。
“法阵!收!”
想了想之后许升又钻到了地底将这法阵给收了起来。
许升毕竟已经活了那么多年且修为已经到达了元婴后期!
当初还是跟随在穆红菱这样的虚仙强者身边的。
他虽然不算是阵法大家,可收起来这个阵法还是可以的。
之后他完全可以在其他地方再布置下来。
当然这阵法若是许升自己从头布置是有难度的。
可他只是搬运还做得到。
没有了这法阵。
这宅子也就没有守下去的必要了。
之后许升再次飞回屋里。
“列祖列宗在上!”
而此时那林秀才正跪着磕头道:“子孙不孝,可能守不住这宅子了!当然他们想抢走宅子,除非踏过我的尸体!”
他语气非常地坚定!
“小子!”
当然就在这时许升现身了出去道:“你忠心可嘉,但不必如此视死如归!”
虽然许升才刚出生,乌龟的嘴巴也不能发出人话,可他法力震**之下模拟人的嘴巴发声是没问题的。
“什么?”
林秀才顿时瞪大了眼睛,声音颤抖道:“您您,您,难道是,龟仙?”
接着他立即对许升连连磕头道:“林家第四代孙林文生拜见上仙!”
显然他的祖上跟他说过当年服侍龟仙人的事情。
虽然他祖上肯定也知道龟仙人其实是一只龟妖。
但只要不是恶妖且能给自己家带来帮助自然就会对其忠心。
且许升估计当年自己的乌龟母亲应该还有恩与这林家先祖。
“起来吧。”
许升点头道:“有我在,你悲惨不了!你过来,听我计划行事。”
“计划?”
林文生疑惑却恭敬倾听后连连点头道:“是,是!”
再之后林文生就去找了陆捕头说自己愿意卖掉祖宅但不肯卖给那西门豪。
希望陆捕头给他找一个其他的买主且价格再高一些。
陆捕头早就跟西门豪狼狈为奸自然是一口答应了下来。
转眼十天后。
林文生跟西门豪派来的一个傀儡以五千多两白银的价格将这个宅子成交了。
之后这宅子自然转手就会落入西门豪的手里。
不过其中的法阵已经被许升取走了。
被他得到也没什么问题。
之所以如此也是许升觉得这边若是真的要开发为商业区。
就不适合自己在这里默默修炼了。
当初乌龟母亲之所以在这里布置下来阵法是因为这边相对是有些偏僻的。
毕竟身为妖又不能入仙门修炼。
在深山老林里也有其他的难处。
而之所以要让林文生将房子先卖了。
是因为许升已经对这西门豪与陆捕头动了杀心。
但是这修仙世界的凡人国毕竟是有仙门镇守使巡守的。
如今是在万象仙宗这个仙门所统治的区域。
这个仙门的实力也蛮强的。
所以许升也不敢在其统治下的凡人国公然大肆杀伐。
因此要杀人必须要摘掉自己。
许升不希望自己杀掉西门豪等人后,林文生会成为第一嫌疑人。
所以才安排了这么一出。
正好许升也是要换地方的。
趁机让林文生赚一笔,之后也不需要许升再帮他弄进京赶考的钱财了。
之后林文生当然是用这些钱财的一半又在相对偏僻一些的地方买下了比之前的宅子还好一些的宅子。
许升将乌龟母亲留下来的法阵又布置在了其中。
就躲在其中的葫芦法器里修炼。
虽然其环境比不上当初在万仙门里。
但现在已经是许升能获得的比较好的修炼环境了。
就将就着吧。
许升也不急。
反正元婴境后期到元婴境巅峰这个阶段的修炼只需要靠时间来熬就能熬上去。
想办法加入仙门或者去深山里跟其他妖争修炼之地还有可能会遇到其他的生死危机。
还不如直接就这样安全潜伏着修炼。
而在又一个月后的某天晚上。
许升法力驾驭自己的小乌龟身体潜伏在深夜中来到了西门豪的府邸。
陆捕头也正好跟西门豪畅快饮酒。
“死!”
而这时懒得跟他们废话的许升飞了出去。
乌龟嘴里吐出两口武道内劲直接就将他们给杀掉了!
然后就飞走了。
如此用武道内劲杀人,仙门弟子不可能查到什么,加上林文生已经摘了出去,许升觉得应该就没问题了。
之后许升就回到林文生购买的新宅子的地下的法阵中心的葫芦法器里修炼了。
而西门豪跟陆捕头死后,的确引发了这凡人国的这个城市的一些震**。
甚至万象仙宗的仙门镇守使还过来调查了一下。
不过自然是查不出什么。
“上仙!”
这天许升再度从地面出来,林文生忍不住问道:“他们二人是您?”
“自然。”
许升点头道:“放心吧,没问题的。安心备考。你科举我帮不了你。毕竟我没法在仙门镇守使的眼皮底下帮你作弊。”
“上仙放心。”
林文生也笑道:“这事儿小子相信靠自己也可以!”
他之后就安心地读书了。
毕竟生计问题已经解决了。
转眼半年后。
林文生与许升告辞去上京赶考。
许升没有同他前去。
只是让他小心。
林文生用钱财雇佣了一个武功还不错的信得过的保镖同行。
许升就继续在葫芦法器中修炼。
后来林文生科举结果还可以。
虽然没有中进士。
毕竟进士太难了。
但他中了个举人。
回到了老家后,一开始没有人举荐入不了仕途。
许升见此暗中用了一些小手段帮了一下他。
之后林文生在当地县衙当了一个小官。
没多久又娶了妻妾。
日子过得也是风生水起。
他对许升也是极其恭敬。
林家也就他知道许升的存在。
而许升就这么一直在这个宅子里修炼着。
林家的宅子后来又多了很多个。
But this house became the most important place for the Lin family.
Only Lin Wensheng can come.
In the blink of an eye, a thousand years passed.
Xu Sheng practiced like this for a thousand years.
But he still hasn't reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm.
“Too slow!”
Xu Sheng couldn't help but sigh: "It's much slower than when Master helped me refine the Purple Spirit Crystal! But in another thousand years or so, I should be able to break through."
He practiced patiently.
At this time, the Lin family had already passed through many generations.
Every generation of the Lin family has someone to liaise with Xu Sheng.
Loyally serve Xu Sheng, the Turtle Hermit.
Although Xu Sheng's cultivation has not undergone any qualitative change, it is actually getting stronger.
Therefore, the Wanxiang Sect’s immortal gate guardian had never discovered Xu Sheng.
But on this day a thousand years later.
Xu Sheng discovered that a girl living at the end of the street was actually a monster.
But I don’t know what kind of monster it is.
Until another day.
Suddenly I heard that there was a demon killing people in this mortal country.
This caused the disciples of the immortal sect to go out in large numbers to hunt down and kill monsters.
The demon at the end of the street was discovered.
She turned out to be a snake demon.
Injured, she fled to Xu Sheng's yard.
After all, they are all monsters, and the monster that is wreaking havoc this time is not actually her.
After thinking about it, Xu Sheng saved her.
"Senior, are you okay?" After all, Xu Sheng's turtle body was young, so he did not reveal his strength and addressed the snake demon girl as a senior.
"Little turtle."
The snake demon girl's pale face revealed a charming yet weak smile and said, "Thank you for saving me! You are so young, you must be less than a thousand years old, right? Be careful, if you are discovered, you will not be able to escape! You will definitely die! This time, the Wanxiang Immortal Sect is serious! Oh!"
