Chapter 11 You have a reason to live again. Witness me going crazy...
Wangxianzhou, Tianyan Sect.
Ling Tian walked down Lingyun Peak with a stern expression. A child followed him and said hurriedly, "Brother, Elder Hua sent a message saying that Yan Dongchen from Xuanxiao Immortal Sect is looking for you. It's said to be a very important matter related to the ghost-faced monk you mentioned."
Ling Tian paused, stopped, took the communication talisman from the little boy, confirmed the information, and then flew away on his sword.
Soon they arrived at the Tianyan Sect's palace where guests were received.
Several elders were sitting in the palace. Seeing Ling Tian coming, they introduced him, "Ling Tian, come here. This is Yan Dongchen, the direct disciple of the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect's leader. I'm here to discuss the matter of the ghost-faced cultivator with you."
Ling Tian had been busy with this matter for the past few days, and he was extremely exhausted. Sect Master Ling was in a state of retreat, and could not be disturbed easily. The Yantian Sect was not known for its deep friendship and unity. Regarding Ling Hezhou's death, only the disciples of Lingyun Peak, the main peak, were concerned, clamoring for revenge for Ling Hezhou. The other peaks were watching with indifference.
Ling Tian could only use his savings as a bounty and recruit monks from all over the world to help him hunt down the ghost-faced monk.
But something went wrong this time. All the cultivators who encountered the Ghost Face died, including Yu Liuxin from Jiyue Tower.
Yu Liuxin is only one stage away from achieving Golden Core Perfection. Having mastered exquisite illusion techniques since childhood, she was trained as the heir by the owner of Jiyue Tower, with whom she has a close relationship. The sect leader intends to arrange a marriage for them, forming a Daoist couple.
However, Ling Tian secretly felt that Yu Liuxin's water spiritual roots would be too nurturing for Ling Hezhou's gold and wood spiritual roots, and that they were not compatible with his natural spiritual roots, so he had always refused. He had also agreed with Yu Liuxin early on that once Ling Hezhou's cultivation had improved further, she and Ling Hezhou would become Dao partners.
When Ling Hezhou got into trouble, Yu Liuxin felt that she had the responsibility to avenge him, so she went down the mountain and joined the expedition team to hunt down the ghost-faced monk.
However, not long after, the life lamp was shattered, and the body died and disappeared.
When this news came out, Ling Tian was criticized by thousands of people, and the relationship between Jiyue Tower and Tianyan Sect also became slightly sour.
Ling Tian couldn't swallow this humiliation, so he took care of all the affairs of Lingyun Peak and planned to recruit a new team of disciples and go down the mountain personally to avenge Ling Hezhou.
Now that he heard that someone from Xuanxiao Xianzong was coming, he naturally told him everything he knew. He took out the recording bead and showed the image of Ling Hezhou's death to the people from Xuanxiao Xianzong and others.
The elders of Tianyan Sect had witnessed this scene of the photo bead several times. Due to some selfish reasons, they did not want to interfere. However, since outsiders were present, they naturally had to express their stance, otherwise people would speculate that the sect was in disarray, which would be unfavorable. So they said righteously: "This matter is no longer a grudge between the Yantian Sect. This person possesses secret techniques that have never been heard of or seen before, and he is also violent and wanton. If left unchecked, I believe he will soon bring disaster to the Nine Provinces."
The Xuanxiao Immortal Sect disciples, led by Yan Dongchen, looked at the image with flickering eyes. They ignored the words of the Tianyan Sect elders and whispered to themselves, "Is it him?"
"No, the image that Master Uncle gave me wasn't that tall."
"His cultivation level is also at the Golden Core Stage."
"We have to go to Dongjingzhou to check the seal."
"If it is really that person, what should we do?"
"Let's check the seal first. If it's really him, we can take him down with just a mere golden elixir. If not, we can kill him. Such a demon is worthy of being killed by anyone."
After the discussion, Yan Dongchen said, "Don't worry, Junior Brother Ling. Xuanxiao Immortal Sect and Tianyan Sect have been sister sects for five hundred years. Sect Master Ling was even a classmate of our Sect Master. Now that Junior Brother Ling of Linghezhou is in trouble, Xuanxiao Immortal Sect has no choice but to take responsibility! We should set out today to meet that demonic leader in Dongjingzhou."
Ling Tian was surprised, and his stern face immediately softened. "In that case, I'll go with you!"
Yan Dongchen naturally agreed with a smile.
Soon, Ling Tian set off for Dongjingzhou with the disciples of Lingyun Peak and the people of Xuanxiao Immortal Sect.
On the flying boat, the Tianyan Sect disciples whispered, "I didn't expect the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect to actually take action. You know, over the years, the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect's people have beaten us Tianyan Sect disciples to death in the Immortal Alliance competitions."
Although Tianyan Sect is one of the eight major sects in Wangxianzhou, it ranks at the bottom. Xuanxiao Sect is not only the leader of the eight major sects, but its leader is also the leader of the Immortal Alliance, ruling over Dongjingzhou, Wangxianzhou, and Manghuangzhou. Needless to say, its influence is huge.
This has bred the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect's disciples to be arrogant, conceited, and unruly. Whenever they encounter competitions or disputes in secret realms, they are ruthless and often injure or maim other disciples.
As the lowest-ranking immortal sect, the Tianyan Sect was naturally looked down upon and bullied.
However, I didn't expect that this time it would be Xuanxiao Immortal Sect that took the lead in extending a helping hand.
"Senior Brother Yan Dongchen is different from those people. At least I haven't heard any bad rumors about him. Moreover, he always stops when necessary in competitions and never takes anyone's life. It seems reasonable that he is willing to take action."
"That's right. Senior Brother Yan is different from the other Xuanxiao Sect disciples. He is truly a child of destiny. He reached the Golden Core Realm at the age of thirty-six, and even entered the Nascent Soul Realm at the age of one hundred and twenty. Unlike us... Take Senior Brother Ling from Ling Hezhou, for example. He has accumulated so many natural treasures, but he only reached the Golden Core Realm in his fifties."
Speaking of Ling Hezhou, all the disciples felt a little sad. "Although Senior Brother Ling is useless, he is really a good person."
As the second generation of immortals, Ling Hezhou has a very good style. He never looks down on others. He teaches all the disciples carefully and generously helps his fellow disciples who are in financial difficulties.
He is not very talented and his cultivation is very low, but because of him, the disciples of Lingyun Peak are more united and the atmosphere is very good.
Because of this, when Ling Hezhou got into trouble, the disciples of the main peak had the strongest desire to avenge him. This time, except for those in the Qi Refining Stage and the children who had just started, all the disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage and the Golden Core Stage came.
Ling Tian's cultivation level was only at the great perfection of the Golden Core stage, and he was only one step away from the Nascent Soul stage.
However, compared to them, the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect's lineup was much larger, with nine Nascent Soul disciples and one Golden Core disciple coming.
This is the foundation of the top immortal sect, and nine Nascent Souls can be produced in one move.
Ling Tian had doubts about the importance that Xuanxiao Immortal Sect attached to this matter, but out of hatred for the Ghost-faced Monk, he ignored any inappropriateness. No matter what, as long as they had the same goal, it was fine.
Soon, they arrived at Dongjingzhou. Yan Dongchen and his group left the team on the pretext of something and went to a hidden death place.
Yes, death.
Five hundred years ago, this place was a treasure land with lush branches and leaves and numerous spiritual beasts and demonic beasts. Because of a secret hunt, it turned into a dead place, and in the center of the dead place there was a bottomless abyss.
The abyss here is connected to the dark river Yellow Spring in the Nine Netherworlds. Living people are not allowed to approach this place, and only the dead can sleep here forever.
Although many people witnessed the man splitting the road and jumping down, no one believed that he would die, so this place was sealed layer by layer, and only a key could open the seal.
"The outer seal hasn't moved." A disciple came to report to Yan Dongchen.
"The inner seal hasn't moved either."
"There's no sign of the Seven Star Killing Formation being activated."
"So is the Dragon Binding Formation."
…
They checked layer by layer and finally reached the edge of the abyss.
Just by getting close, the dark death energy emanating from the abyss permeated into the bone marrow, and the circulation of spiritual energy became extremely sluggish.
"It's hard to believe that there would be a monk who could survive here." Someone murmured.
"That man has profound Buddhist knowledge, and his entire body has been tempered into Buddha bones. He himself can restrain the Nine Nether Dark River."
"But no matter how profound his Buddhist teachings are, he is only at the Golden Core stage. Once his spiritual power is exhausted, it is only a matter of time before he is corroded by the Dark River. And now, five hundred years have passed."
"Five hundred years of vicissitudes are just a blink of an eye for a cultivator. Don't underestimate him. He is..." He stopped talking before he finished speaking.
Yan Dongchen said, "Since the seal is intact, there's no way that person could get out. Jinyuan, send a message back."
"yes."
Not long after they left, a snow-white snake hissed out from the edge of the abyss, coiled up where Yan Dongchen was standing, and turned into a strange black spell that sank into the ground.
On the inner wall of the abyss that they could not see, one black palm print after another meandered up like a snake.

On the other side, Chi Yu waited for a long time, but Xie Xiyi didn't come to remove the curse for him. He just looked at him solemnly - the red pupils on the hideous ghost face were lifeless, even extremely cold, but Chi Yu seemed to be able to sense a hint of displeasure from it.
Hahaha, Chi Yu thought to himself, finding Xie Xiyi so quickly, he must feel embarrassed, right?
Chi Yu felt a little amused, but then he felt that he was asking for trouble and shouldn't have deliberately slapped himself in the face like that.
But he does it if he likes it, and sometimes he doesn't want to care about the consequences, just for the sake of momentary pleasure.
No way, no way, Xie Xiyi wouldn't be so tasteless, right?
Just as he was speculating in his heart, Xie Xiyi suddenly stretched out his hand. His fingers were very long, with distinct joints, very pale and bloodless, but it was undeniable that it was a very beautiful hand.
After he stretched out his hand, a small snow-white snake suddenly emerged from the ground. The small snake flew into his hand and turned into a rune chain, crawling on his pale skin and merging with the chains circling around his body.
Xie Xiyi suddenly laughed, a somewhat crazy laugh, an extreme out-of-control laughter of extreme excitement, and the last syllable of his voice trembled slightly at the end of his laughter.
Chi Yu:? ? ?
Chi Yu couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Xie Xiyi reached out and touched the mask on his face. His laughter slowly stopped, but his voice still retained a trace of joy. "Come here, I'll remove the curse for you."
Chi Yu hesitated for a moment, but still walked over. The mist wrapped around Xie Xiyi's hands again, forming a black glove. He gently tapped Chi Yu's chest with his fingers, and a black curse seal flew out from Chi Yu's chest and slid into Xie Xiyi's sleeves.
"What's your name?" Xie Xiyi asked with a smile.
"..." Chi Yu felt that he was really a little bit mentally ill, and answered obediently: "My name is Chi Yu."
Xie Xiyi read: "Chi Yu?"
He pronounced the name as if on the tip of his tongue, with a subtle frivolity.
"It's a nice name." Xie Xiyi laughed seductively, "Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat rice. Whether big or small, they are all food to be eaten by people."
Chi Yu corrected him seriously, "It's the Happy Yu. My grandfather gave me this name. It means I will be happy all my life. It's not about big fish or small fish, it's not about eating."
Xie Xiyi chuckled softly, "No one cares about the meaning of this name except you. However, you are my sword slave, and I am the only one who can eat you from now on."
Chi Yu: "..."
Eh, does this mean... I have to protect him?
Did he really become Xie Xiyi's younger brother?
A tune emerged from Xie Xiyi's throat, soft and bright, which perfectly matched his mood at the moment.
The phantom lightning in Chi Yu's arms broke free and flew in front of Xie Xiyi. Xie Xiyi reached out and grasped the sword, and said to Chi Yu with a smile in his voice: "Sword slave, I need a witness. Are you happy? You have a reason to live again."
Chi Yu muttered, "To witness you go crazy, huh?"
The phantom buzzed in response. Xie Xiyi asked, "Do you want to die?"
Chi Yu immediately forced a smile and said, "...Boss, I get it! I'll bear witness!"
System you come in handy again, camera, start (x
"But what do you want me to witness?" Chi Yu asked.
Xie Xiyi pondered for a moment, then said in a cheerful voice, "Witness me going crazy."
Chi Yu: "..."
