Chapter 457 Zhang Bairen: I

Zhang Bairen! Also known as Xiao Ganyun.

In Chu Ning's memory, Zhang Bairen was a person who left a deep impression on him.

He was the one who killed the eldest daughter of the Zheng family, and in the end it was Xiao Ganyun who took the blame for him.

Later, Xiao Ganyun joined the Wenjin Sect under his real name Zhang Bairen.

Chu Ning once used the Dongming Treasure Mirror to check on Zhang Bairen and learned about Zhang Bairen's past. He knew that Zhang Bairen was a person with great luck.

Zhang Bairen was born in a small village and had no chance to come into contact with the method of cultivation. However, he accidentally obtained a magic weapon and then embarked on the path of cultivation.

Along the way, without any background or origin, he relied purely on luck to obtain various opportunities and entered the foundation-building stage.

From Chu Ning's current perspective, the opportunities Zhang Bairen had back then were nothing, but at that time, those opportunities were enough to make all Qi Condensation cultivators jealous.

This child has great luck.

At the beginning, I felt that Zhang Bairen was simply the standard template of the male protagonist in novels. In fact, if I hadn't been the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind, Zhang Bairen would have gotten a great opportunity in Wenjin Sect.

"Only those with good fortune can enter the Purple Mansion Academy. Zhang Bairen's fortune is indeed extraordinary, but I didn't expect him to appear here."

There had been no news of Zhang Bairen for so many years, and Chu Ning thought that this guy was either dead or had left the Central Region. However, he did not expect to meet him at the end of the Xuanhuang Road after so many years.

Zhang Bairen sat on the disc, and the disc continued to absorb the mysterious energy. The mysterious energy poured into the disc, flowing along the rune ditches on the disc, and finally gathered at the center.

In the center of the disc, there is a groove. The mysterious yellow air slowly flows into the groove through the grooves on the disc and turns into drops of liquid.

This scene reminded Chu Ning of the scene of grinding soy milk on a millstone that he saw when he was a child.

The bag was poured onto the millstone, and then the monster was crushed by the millstone and turned into soy milk.

This disc is refining the Xuanhuang Qi, and Zhang Bairen is sitting in this groove, allowing the liquid to soak and absorb.

Zhang Bairen's body exuded a layer of light yellow halo, making him look like a god.

"Brother Zhang?"

Chu Ning called out tentatively, but received no response.

So Zhang Bairen is in a state of emptiness and clarity? This possibility seems very likely to Chu Ning. If Zhang Bairen can sense the movements of the outside world and notice his arrival, he cannot remain indifferent.

Snap! Chu Ning snapped his fingers, and a cluster of seedlings appeared at his fingertips.

The sixth-level earth fire appeared, Chu Ning flicked his finger, and the flame floated towards Zhang Bairen.

"Brother Zhang, it's me!"

While commanding the underground fire to come closer, Chu Ning continued to call Zhang Bairen. However, when the underground fire was only a finger's distance away from Zhang Bairen's body, Zhang Bairen still did not respond, so Chu Ning recalled the underground fire.

It can now be confirmed that Zhang Bairen is indeed in a special situation and is unable to perceive the situation in the outside world, or he can perceive the situation in the outside world but is unable to respond for some reason.

No matter which one it is, it shows one thing, that Zhang Bairen is now a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.

"Brother Zhang, you and I were brothers back then. When I think back to those days in Miaoxian Pavilion, I can still remember them vividly."

"I am very sad that you ignore me."

While speaking, Chu Ning did not stop his hands. He directly summoned a puppet to climb onto the disc and carried Zhang Bairen out of the groove of the disc.

"Brother Zhang, it's too dangerous here. Let me rescue you first."

Commanding his puppet and holding Zhang Bairen, Chu Ning walked towards the way he came. He watched Zhang Bairen's figure disappear from his sight, then he retracted his gaze and looked at the disc.

To be precise, the disc was scanned using the Dongming Treasure Mirror.

However, the results of the scan surprised Chu Ning.

[Fortune-seeking bead: It is formed by the essence of luck. It can be used to seek opportunities in the world. It has already recognized its owner and cannot be plundered. If you plunder it forcefully, you will be backfired by your luck.]

Simple and easy to understand.

But it was precisely because it was so simple and easy to understand that Chu Ning was shocked.

This is a gem that can find opportunities. Although its appearance does not seem to match the gem, the Insight Mirror will never be wrong.

Therefore, Zhang Bairen was able to continuously obtain opportunities and could be regarded as a template for the male protagonist in the novel, not because he had enough opportunities on his own, but because he had this fortune-seeking bead.

When Zhang Bairen went to ask Jinzong, he was also guided by the Xunyun Pearl.

The truth is revealed.

Chu Ning looked at the Xunyun Pearl in front of him. It was definitely a treasure, comparable to the legendary treasure-hunting monster.

Treasure-hunting bugs are a special kind of bug that can sense treasures. The higher their level, the higher level of treasures they can sense. The three treasure-hunting bugs that appeared in the history of Central Domain have all caused scrambles among the strong men of the entire Central Domain.

"If this fortune-seeking bead were to be spread out, I'm afraid it would attract more covetousness than the treasure-hunting bug."

Chu Ning whispered that treasure-hunting bugs can only sense treasures, but the fortune-seeking beads can guide to opportunities. You must know that opportunities include some precious things such as inheritance, magic, magic weapons, elixirs, etc., while treasure-hunting bugs can only sense magic weapons and elixirs.

Unfortunately, the Dongming Treasure Mirror has already indicated that the Xunyun Pearl cannot be plundered, which means that the Xunyun Pearl has an owner.

As for the identity of this owner, it is clear without saying that it is Zhang Bairen.

In other words, if he killed Zhang Bairen, he would not be able to obtain the Xunyun Pearl. Instead, he would suffer the backlash of good fortune because of killing people for the goods.

Chu Ning no longer knew nothing about luck.

Luck is very mysterious and is closely related to the laws of nature.

If he had a grudge against Zhang Bairen, or if he did not intend to steal the Xunyun Pearl, killing Zhang Bairen would not cause him to suffer a backlash from his luck. But if he had this intention, he would definitely suffer a backlash.

The way of heaven cannot be deceived.

Even if he did not take action himself and arranged for others to deal with Zhang Bairen, the result would be the same and the cause and effect would still be counted on him.

"This Xunyun Pearl is Zhang Bairen's golden ticket to immunity from death."

Chu Ning muttered to himself that if Zhang Bairen really encountered a strong enemy, he only needed to tell others that he had the Fortune-Seeking Pearl. Anyone who knew about the Fortune-Seeking Pearl would be tempted. If they continued to attack Zhang Bairen, they would just have to wait for their luck to backfire.

"No... maybe Zhang Bairen himself doesn't know this."

He was able to know about the backlash of luck through the Dongming Treasure Mirror, but other strong people might not know about this, including Zhang Bairen himself. Anyone who wanted to kill him with the intention of seizing the Xunyun Pearl would suffer the backlash of luck.

Although Chu Ning felt a little regretful that he couldn't take away the luck bead, he quickly calmed down and looked towards the groove.

Zhang Bairen was carried away by the puppet, but the liquid condensed from the mysterious energy in the groove continued to increase.

"The Xuanhuang Qi is a good thing. I have absorbed a lot of it along the way, but I haven't found any changes in my body. It is very likely because I am not able to directly absorb the gaseous Xuanhuang Qi at my current level."

Zhang Bairen transformed the Xuanhuang Qi into liquid, probably for the purpose of being able to absorb it.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning no longer hesitated, jumped onto the Xunyun Pearl, and sat in the groove.

As his body entered the groove, the liquid transformed from the mysterious energy soaked into his skin. Chu Ning's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but moan.

So comfortable.

A gentle cool feeling spread across the skin, and all the pores on the body opened at this moment.

Inside the Dantian, the mountain vibrated and rotated automatically. With every rotation, wisps of dark yellow liquid would be sucked into the Dantian through the pores all over the body and then sank into the mountain.

Danshan Sect.

When we reached the top of Nian Tang Mountain, it suddenly started to rain.

In the spiritual field area on the mountain, countless spiritual herbs at this moment seemed to be welcoming the sweet rain, spreading their branches and leaves, and swaying their bodies.

All the plants and trees in the entire Nian Tang Mountain were madly absorbing the sweet rain.

At this moment, a figure appeared above the red plum tree, looking up at the rain above with a hint of shock in his eyes.

"The source of Xuan Huang, I didn't expect that he would have this opportunity."

Danshan Sect is very large, and Niantang Mountain is deep in the mountain range of Danshan Sect. This rain only fell in Niantang Mountain, and no one noticed it except the old man from Danshan Sect who was paying attention to this place.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The old man appeared at the foot of Nian Tang Mountain, feeling the rain, with an expression of disbelief on his old face.

The next moment, the old man waved his hand, and there was a flash of light in the area around Nian Tangshan. Looking closely, it could be seen that it was a formation diagram.

Block the secret.

The old man used a formation to seal what was happening in Nian Tangshan at the moment to prevent it from being spied on by certain people.

The middle-aged man under the red plum tree pondered for a moment, opened his palms, and a red plum blossom bloomed in his palms, absorbing the sweet rain falling from the sky.

…

…

Thinking of the mountainside of Tangshan.

Tang Ruowei and Xu Ruobing came out of the cave almost at the same time. Although the two women were in seclusion, they were not in a state of complete seclusion. They came out at this moment because they felt the changes in Nian Tangshan.

"This rain is unusual."

As she was drenched in the rain, Tang Ruowei could feel the elemental energy of heaven and earth in her body growing.

The rain fell on his body and actually penetrated through his clothes and entered his dantian through the pores of his skin, causing the heaven and earth elemental energy in his dantian not only to increase, but also to be continuously compressed, becoming more refined.

"This rain is only falling on Nian Tangshan. It should be related to this guy Chu Ning. What sensational thing did this guy do outside?"

Xu Ruobing muttered, took out his Spiritual Network Pass, logged in, and after a while, he withdrew his consciousness: "According to the news on the Spiritual Network, this guy traveled around the Central Region and returned to the Chengshan Region, where he returned to his roots."

"What roots does he return to?"

Tang Ruowei was speechless. Others didn't know what Chu Ning's situation was, but they two knew it clearly.

"This rain is not a bad thing, so just ignore it."

…

…

On the Xuanhuang Road, Chu Ning sat on the groove of the Xunyun Pearl, constantly absorbing the Xuanhuang Qi that was transformed into liquid.

Inside his body, the volume of the mountain in his dantian was shrinking, and debris kept falling down. These debris rolled into his dantian and turned into a turbid liquid.

This turbid liquid flows along the dantian to the limbs and bones, and finally flows out of the body through the pores of the skin and into the groove.

It's a wash.

Use the mysterious and yellow energy to cleanse your body.

"Cultivators start with Qi Condensation, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. However, because there are impurities in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it needs to be refined. The reason why those geniuses cultivate quickly is that they can expel the impurities from the body faster. But even so, a few impurities will still accumulate in the body, so they need to cultivate the Nascent Soul to completely eliminate the impurities in themselves and condense a pure Nascent Soul."

In the monastic community, there is a point of universally recognized common sense.

After the Nascent Soul stage, there will be no impurities in the cultivator's body.

But now it seems that this common sense is not correct. Even if the Nascent Soul is condensed, impurities still exist in the cultivator's body.

"Perhaps common sense is correct. The turbid liquid I am expelling from my body is not called impurities, but another special kind of energy."

Chu Ning couldn't confirm it, but what he could confirm was that at this moment, he was using the elemental energy of heaven and earth much faster than before.

Swoosh! With his hands forming seals, a mountain appeared above Chu Ning's head, and then disappeared in an instant.

His casting speed increased even more.

"Is that all it does?"

The Xuanhuang Qi is so precious that it has attracted so many powerful people, and some powerful monsters are even willing to sacrifice their lives for it. Chu Ning doesn't believe that the Xuanhuang Qi has only this effect. There must be other benefits that he hasn't discovered.

"Never mind, let's absorb enough first."

Chu Ning continued to absorb the dark yellow liquid, tirelessly and without awareness of the passage of time.

…

…

Ten years later.

…

…

Chu Ning's face became blurred and turned into a clay figure, sitting on a round plate.

…

…

Twenty years later.

A dead body floating on the river has resurrected.

"Fuck, who the hell is that? I almost entered the Xuanhuang Palace!"

Zhang Bairen stood up, looked at himself floating on the river, and could no longer hold back and started cursing.
