Chapter 37 The rabbit demon is hard to understand.
Gu Xuan knelt before Elder Fuqiu and pleaded guilty.
The news of Fang Yuan's escape could not be concealed for long.
At first, it was because Yuwawa suddenly found that one of his spirit insects was missing, so he went to Chen Duoer to look for it but failed, so the two of them went to Fangyuan together.
She had already thought about how to comfort the tearful fox cub, but she couldn't find any fox anywhere. The impatient Chen Duoer immediately reported the matter to her senior sister Gu Xuan, who was now in charge of all the disciples' affairs.
Gu Xuan looked at the rabbit monsters kneeling and trembling in front of her, and felt more powerless than ever before.
She is soft-hearted by nature and has never been good at rejecting others.
She had gone out for a trip just fine but was inexplicably harassed by the rabbit demon family. This was beyond her expectations.
Now that she was forced to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, she still had no intention of stepping into the ranks of high-level cultivators...
Therefore, when the rabbit monsters volunteered to guard the barrier, Gu Xuan did not refuse.
But she forgot that although demons understand human nature, there is always a fundamental difference between them and humans.
"They said that if we head east, we'll find a way to survive. That's why we met you. It's destiny that my people must thrive here..."
The pale and thin rabbit demon youth crawled forward on his knees with red eyes and carefully placed his cheek next to Gu Xuan's calf.
"We have already formed a soul bond with you. No matter what, we will never betray you—"
"Impossible and unknown, you are really good at finding loopholes in the contract."
Elder Yupan, who received the news, appeared suddenly. She looked at the hesitation in Gu Xuan's expression and her face was not very good.
"Gu Xuan, don't you know Fang Yuan's situation? You just let him wander around at such a dangerous time. If anything happens..."
"If Fang Yuan didn't insist on leaving the sect, he must be brought back no matter the cost!"
"Are you trying to captive-breed a demon king-level demon?"
The rabbit demon raised his face in disbelief, and the red bean between his eyebrows seemed to be almost bleeding.
He has two long ears on his head and a furry tail behind him, and his body exudes the aura of the Golden Core Stage.
As a Jindan-stage demon, the rabbit demon is different from Fang Yuan. He has actually lived in the Million Mountains for a long time, so he is even more shocked by Elder Yupan's decision.
The rabbit demon had seen Fang Yuan before. If he had not been too close to notice the clues, Fang Yuan's disguise would have been enough for the rabbit demon to mistake him for a human cultivator!
Not to mention that Fang Yuan is only in the middle stage of foundation building at the moment, even a big demon in the Yuanying stage rarely has such precision when transforming into a human form.
Now Fang Yuan can easily maintain this kind of life in the Hehuan Sect. What this represents is self-evident.
If he abandoned the human way of cultivation and instead adopted the cultivation methods commonly used by the demon race...
As long as this fox demon is not killed on the spot by an enemy several times stronger than itself too early, it can be said that it is only a matter of time for it to advance from the Qi Refining Stage to the Spirit Transformation Stage!
"I never promised you to let my junior brother go."
Gu Xuan's weapon was soft silk. These fabrics that once clung to her arms were now wrapped around the neck of the leading rabbit demon like steel.
"The Hehuan Sect has never cared about these things, and Fang Yuan has no idea what a demon king is."
Gu Xuan thought of how this junior fellow apprentice often failed to learn Taoism, and because of this, he looked at the pitiful expressions of his senior brothers and sisters with moist eyes.
"If he knew, the only person in the entire sect who might tell him about this would be..."
She pinched the rabbit demon's cheeks and spoke gently.
"Did you say anything unnecessary to Fang Yuan or Elder Mo Yan?"
Gu Xuan and Yu Pan's attitudes are completely different from when they first entered the Hehuan Sect.
Obviously everyone can accept that fox demon as the core disciple of the entire sect, so why can't they?
The rabbit demon couldn't understand and felt very confused.
"Human territory simply can't accommodate the blood sacrifices the demon king needs to grow. We don't want to clash with him, so is it wrong to avoid him in advance?"
The female cultivator, who had always been as gentle and compassionate as a fairy, looked at the unrepentant rabbit demon, and now showed a somewhat furious look on her face.
"You have overstepped your bounds."
She reached out her hand, ignoring the other party's struggle, and directly touched the red bean between the rabbit demon's eyebrows.
That is the core of the soul contract and the key point involving the spiritual platform. It should have been the medium for connecting the souls of two equally matched people or a Taoist couple who trust each other wholeheartedly.
When the rabbit demon family pestered Gu Xuan, Gu Xuan was still in the Golden Core stage. Facing the horde of demons, she had no power to fight back and could only sign a soul contract under their gaze.
But now that Gu Xuan has advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, the balance has tilted. It is easy for her to counterattack the rabbit monster, just like when the rabbit monster family held her hostage before.
The rabbit demon, whose soul was imprisoned, gradually lost the luster in its originally red eyes, and then its body fell to the ground uncontrollably.
Everything was going smoothly, why did it end up like this?
It was clearly just a choice made in accordance with the situation, so how could it lead to such a result?
The rest of the rabbit monsters showed expressions of disbelief, incomprehension, and confusion.
Seeing that Elder Yupan on the side suddenly understood the rabbit monsters' thoughts, he sighed in disappointment.
"You think the demon race still has a chance to recreate the splendor of the heavenly court and produce a few more demon kings to fight against the human race.
If Fang Yuan succeeds in his cultivation, you will have accomplished a great deed, so don't you think there's anything wrong with that?"
The demons are rioting, and although there are dark forces behind the demon clan fanning the flames, it does not mean that the era of great strife will begin in this world.
The content of spiritual energy in the air is far from recovering to the richness of ancient times, and few cultivators have ascended to heaven in the world of cultivation for many years.
No matter how you look at it, this is not the time for the monks to shine. At best, it can only be regarded as a small wave of the times.
Under this premise, thinking about the changes that took place between the Deep Forest and the Millions of Mountains, even with the emergence of the Tianjiao List, things become intriguing.
"Do you know why Fuqiu came back so promptly?"
Gu Xuan and the rabbit monsters all looked at the jade plate.
Elder Yupan looked at his disciple who was often unable to help himself, and finally his soft heart overcame other thoughts.
"She went to the Mysterious Hidden Sect because of Wang Ze's matter...
Later, I discovered that the Mysterious Hidden Sect had been deserted at some point, and the entire sect had disappeared completely!"
In the world of cultivation, each continent is divided and the forces are complex.
The Canglang Mountains serve as the boundary, and to the south are the deep forest swamps and millions of mountains where the demon tribe gathers. Many demon cultivators gather in cities such as Shifang City, which serves as the dividing line between the swamps and the mountains.
North of the Canglang Mountains, the boundless desert occupies the western part of the cultivation world, spreading from the Xihua Holy Continent to the south and north of the desert. The large and small Wuxiang Temples in the Holy Continent and the north of the desert are the main strongholds of Buddhist cultivation.
To the east of the world of cultivation is the endless ocean, with many islands collectively called Penglai dotted in it, becoming the only place where cultivators can settle down. Many formation cultivators and weapon cultivators gather in Kunshan.
The northernmost part of the world of cultivation is a bitterly cold place with snow that has accumulated for thousands of years and never melts.
The border of the Hanshan Mountains on the frontier divides Yanbeizhou and Yancangzhou. The two major sects, Jiangong and Lingxiao Pavilion, are home to most of the sword cultivators and talisman cultivators in the world of cultivation.
Going south from Hanshan on the Great Wall, there are Leizhou, Anpingzhou, Zhongzhou, Anxizhou, Jingpingzhou, Donglinzhou, Jingnanzhou and Futuzhou in order.
Except for Zhongzhou with many pagodas, Jingnanzhou with Zhongnan Taoist Sect, and Futuzhou with Liangyi Valley, the other continents are all mixed with cultivators who specialize in various Taoist methods.
Although the area south of the desert where the Hehuan Sect is located is remote, it is no exception. Moreover, because the desert extends from the Canglang Mountains, the world of cultivation is particularly mixed with people, demons, monsters, and Buddhas, all of whom follow their own paths.
The Mysterious Hidden Sect is located at the junction of three continents: Mo Nan, Xihua Shengzhou, and Jingnanzhou. However, the entire sect was mysteriously evacuated just before the riot of alien demons and monsters on the border.
Fuqiu didn't understand what was going on at the time and was still frustrated that she couldn't find her disciple Wang Ze. Only after the strange changes in the sect did she realize that these changes must be related to the demonic cultivators!
But it was too late to realize it now. Fuqiu could only inform the other elders and ask them to keep a secret vigilance within the sect.
"Whether those demonic cultivators were trying to take advantage of the situation or had other agendas... the unrest in the Canglang Mountains and deep in the desert has now come to a halt, but they are definitely brewing a greater conspiracy."
Yu Pan said solemnly.
"Fuqiu has already sent a message to Ye Ziqing, asking them to be careful with their actions this time.
I will find a way to search for Fang Yuan as soon as possible. As for you..."
"I will never make a mistake again, Master."
After hearing the names of Wang Ze and Ye Ziqing from Yu Pan, Gu Xuan finally hardened her heart after finally realizing the reality of her current identity.
"Nascent Soul cultivators can control their consciousness to leave their bodies. I will connect to the sect's formation to strengthen the protection. No one is allowed to leave the sect until this sudden change is over!"
Chu Sheng knew nothing about the twists and turns within the sect.
She stood on the flying boat, gazing at the majestic mountains approaching more and more, and the bizarre celestial phenomena above the mountains that could not be ignored. The aura around her was condensed and calm.
"Where the two moons form a circle and shine brightly is where the Tianjiao List is located." Gui Xuan explained.
"If this strange astronomical phenomenon lasts for several years, tomorrow's flowers will grow on the ground illuminated by the twin moons.
The whole body of tomorrow flower is snow-white, and it looks like a veil when reflecting the light. It is cool to the touch and has a cold medicinal property.
If we could use a single tomorrow flower as a medicinal ingredient to refine a potion, it would have a miraculous effect on cultivators suffering from the pain of being burned by thousands of fires."
Qi An came out of the room, his hand holding the sword trembling slightly, as if the pain of removing flesh from bones was still lingering in his senses.
But the strong willpower of the late Jindan cultivator was enough to allow the sword cultivator to pretend that nothing had happened.
"Almost there? Guixuan, your timing is really good. The medicine has been digested just right."
Damn it, why didn’t Palace Master Changfeng tell me that this is the type of medicine Gui Xuan, the Young Master of Liangyi Valley, uses!
He almost fainted from the pain inadvertently. People who didn't know him would think he was an undercover agent and was ready to kill all his people first!
Seeing that he looked normal, Gui Xuan answered without any suspicion.
"The medicinal properties I've learned from Chu Sheng seem to be applicable to people of the same realm... Where are Yuan Qi and Ye Ziqingren?"
"She's about to be listed on the Tianjiao Ranking. Regarding the specific matters for the next step, the two of them probably have some considerations to discuss."
Qi An glanced at Chu Sheng's expression, which showed that he didn't realize anything was wrong, and said with a smile.
Ye Ziqing, a fragile formation cultivator, must be hiding in his cave crying right now, but Junior Sister Chu Sheng is so calm... She's just like me!
Alas, it turns out that only a true man like me should be the legitimate senior brother of my junior sister!
