Chapter 237 The First
Next, Xu Qiuqian and Zhu Yichen continued to catch up with each other and moved up higher and higher.
Master Hua Cen, who had been paying attention, was puzzled when he saw that the two seemed to know each other.
What did Xu Qiuqian do during the time she was away from Qingyu Sect? And that male cultivator, who was in the early stage of foundation building, actually climbed faster than her.
After thinking about it, Master Hua Cen could only understand that the Questioning Heart Stage does not look at cultivation level but only at the state of mind. Perhaps the state of mind of that male cultivator was acceptable.
Along the way, the two even had time to chat.
After all, their speeds are similar.
"I heard this is an ancient sect?"
Zhu Yichen hummed, "Only the ancient sects would have three thousand steps."
"Since it is an ancient sect, why would a star... mirage beast appear? Have you heard of the mirage beast?"
"No, I am also very confused. Since it is an ancient sect, it means that the mirage beast has appeared since ancient times, but why has no one ever known about it?"
This mirage beast is different from other demon beasts or spirit beasts.
However, most cultivators still classify it as a demon beast because it will devour the cultivators' spiritual power.
Even Zhu Yichen didn’t know about it, which means that this mirage beast had not been discovered by other cultivators until a hundred years later.
However, Xu Qiuqian always felt that something was wrong.
I thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out what was wrong, so I just gave up.
Soon, the two of them climbed two thousand steps in a race against each other. Most of the steps between one thousand and two thousand were spent killing monsters, which was easily completed.
Xu Qiuqian has a slight advantage.
This time she went up again and entered the illusion. She saw that it was not a monster, but she was back to her grocery store? What happened?
Xu Qiuqian looked around.
She noticed something was wrong at the grocery store.
Although the layout of this grocery store is very similar to the grocery stores in Youling City and Pingfeng City, it is not one of the two.
Where is this? When she was wondering, she heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened and a man appeared at the door. His face looked familiar yet strange to her.
It is Yun Yi, and it is not.
The man in front of him had similar features to Yun Yi, but he was much bigger than Yun Yi.
"Xiao Yi?" Xu Qiuqian asked tentatively.
Yun Yi hummed, not noticing anything wrong with Xu Qiuqian. He smiled and said, "Sister Qiuqian, another person came here with a hand card and said he wanted to buy something. Sister Qiuqian, do you want to meet him?"
Hand?
Why is there someone coming to her with a card in hand to buy something now?
In her plan, it’s not yet time for the cards in her hand to come into play!
But Yun Yi's mature face made her realize that something was wrong.
So he looked inward and found that he had actually formed a baby!
No wonder Yun Yi has become so mature.
This illusion of love started from this aspect because she knew that Master Hua Cen could no longer shake her.
However, I have to say it is quite useful.
At least she was not as eager to leave the illusion as before.
Not knowing what she was thinking of, she asked Yun Yi: "Where is our current grocery store in Xuanyun Continent?"
"Hmm? We are not in Xuanyun Continent."
Xu Qiuqian was stunned.
Not in Xuanyun Continent?
"So we are..."
"Xiyue Continent."
It turns out that he came to Xiyue Continent.
She suddenly became curious and wanted to see what the Xiyue Continent looked like.
However, there was something else that made her even more curious.
"Xiaoyi, where is Shiqian?"
Yun Yi was stunned.
"What's wrong?"
"Sister Shiqian left after taking revenge that year. Sister Qiuqian, what's wrong with you today? Why are you acting so weird?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Qiuqian left the illusion.
My heart is beating a little fast.
She exhaled slowly.
The mood became a little low.
Illusions reflect the innermost thoughts of people.
And she always thought that Shi Qian would leave the grocery store after taking revenge.
Although she had prepared herself mentally long ago, she still felt sad when she faced it, even though she knew it was not real and was just an illusion.
After a while, she smiled bitterly.
She never knew that she was so afraid of being separated from Shi Qian. As soon as she heard what Xiao Yi said in the illusion, she left the illusion as if escaping and woke up.
But you can escape in illusion, but how can you escape in reality?
Xu Qiuqian shook her head and looked up.
Just when she fell into the illusion, Zhu Yichen had already surpassed her.
Her eyes became firm.
It shouldn't be like this.
When did she become such a coward?
All good things must come to an end. She and Shi Qian will finally have to part ways. The important thing is to live well in the present.
Xu Qiuqian regrouped and continued to move forward.
The illusion seemed to sense Xu Qiuqian's deep desire and the grocery store appeared repeatedly, but Xu Qiuqian was determined and was not disturbed again.
In the middle of the process, Zhu Yichen stopped for some reason.
She overtook directly.
Eventually, she became the first person to climb the three thousand steps.
After three thousand steps, she saw the view from the top of the stairs.
Behind him were monks climbing up densely, and in front of him was an ancient and heavy door, but this door did not have any formation or anything like that. Xu Qiuqian walked over and pushed it, and the door opened.
Behind the door is a large square.
There is a huge round tripod in the center of the square. A hundred steps behind the tripod is another hundred steps of stairs. Above the stairs is a large hall with a plaque hanging outside the hall.
The plaque has three words "Shengxian Hall".
Xu Qiuqian walked towards the door.
As soon as you walk in, you can feel the rich spiritual energy.
Walk towards the round tripod in the center of the square.
This is a magical weapon, and its grade is not low.
Without thinking, Xu Qiuqian stuffed the round tripod into the storage bag and walked towards the Ascension Hall.
The hall was also spacious, with four upright columns, on top of which hovered four lifelike beasts, looking as if they could come alive at any moment.
"Don't tell me he's alive..." Xu Qiuqian muttered.
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard two hissing sounds. Looking towards the source of the sound, the cylinder closest to her suddenly moved, and the giant python coiled on the cylinder also moved.
Xu Qiuqian immediately took a stance to accept the challenge.
This giant python looks difficult to deal with, so why not run away first? Just as I was thinking, the giant python stopped halfway.
After waiting for a long time, the giant python didn't move.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Xu Qiuqian walked over carefully and touched the giant python.
Not moving.
However, she also discovered that it was not the giant python that moved just now, but something was smeared on the cylindrical giant python, and she accidentally inhaled it, causing the illusion. In fact, the giant python did not move at all.
Still in the same place as before.
Not bad, not bad.
Otherwise she would really be ready to escape.
When living a new life, life is of course the most important thing. As for other things, if you see any magic weapons or spiritual herbs on the road, you will naturally take them if you can.
Of course, the most important thing is that she always keeps in mind the purpose of her coming here, which is to get the Starry Sky Eclipse Beast.
As she was thinking, she suddenly heard a roar from a distance.
This roar...
It’s the Starry Sky Eclipse Beast!
