Chapter 573 I Just Want a Hug
"Does the Grand Palace Master need to enter the Fire Abyss to refine the cursed monster?"
Li Weiyi could see that Yu Yaozi had not fully recovered, and even her figure was still that of a young girl in the budding stage. Only because of the armor covering her body did her curves appear distinct.
Yu Yaozi has ruled Lingxiao for thousands of years. He dares not to act rashly against the major sects within the clan, and he intimidates the four directions of the dead spirit demon clan. Both his cultivation and skills are top-notch.
If he had not been betrayed by his closest relatives, even if the prince of the Demon Kingdom had schemed in every possible way, he would never have succeeded.
Her gaze fell on Li Weiyi's chest, and she didn't know what she was thinking. She asked, "Who are you? Where did your Tai Chi Space-Time Treasure come from? Who taught you the Twelve Free-Handed Hands of the Chan Sect and the Jade Void Breathing Technique?"
Li Weiyi touched the Taoist Tai Chi fish on his chest, thinking about how to give a reasonable explanation.
"Are you making up stories in your mind again?" Yu Yaozi's eyes were sharp. That was the majesty and aura cultivated by dominating the habitat for thousands of years. That was the indifference that naturally arose in his heart after killing countless transcendents.
Li Weiyi felt guilty under her gaze and pretended to be calm: "I still say the same thing, if you encounter Zen Wu in the future, just ask her. No matter what I say now, you will think I am lying. Besides, only I can activate this thing."
"Yeah?"
Yu Yaozi released spiritual light, and the light mist flowed like a stream, continuously converging into the Taoist Tai Chi fish.
Naturally, it ended in failure.
"It's really not easy."
She retracted her spiritual light and said, "I will go to the blood mud space to nourish my soul and take me in."
Apparently, even Yu Yaozi's soul was damaged by the Heavenly Fire while refining the cursed monster, and needed to be re-regenerated before heading to the Fire Abyss for the next refining.
Li Weiyi said, "With the Grand Palace Master's unparalleled cultivation, why would he need the Blood Mud Space's help?"
Yu Yaozi's phoenix eyes with long eyelashes glanced over coldly.
Li Weiyi thought about it and realized that there was no benefit in competing with her. He couldn't beat her, and he couldn't afford to provoke her. What if she used the remaining power of the Six Mind Mantra to issue him a Xiaotian Order alone... He originally had the opportunity to become the Prime Minister of Fengge Luantai, but he could only stay in the imperial kitchen of Lingxiao Palace and be Little Li.
"Respectfully invite the Grand Palace Master to arrive!"
Li Weiyi activated the Taoist Tai Chi Fish, and as the space fluctuated, the two disappeared in the Qingyin Pavilion.
The magnificent Tanggu Sea.
Li Weiyi and others were in the sea where the Xihe flowers grew, looking in the direction of the Fusang sacred tree.
Amidst the fiery clouds, Yu Yaozi returned, stepping on a spiritual light and flying down. She was as cool and detached as a fairy, her voice sweet and melodious, "I never thought that in this dark world shrouded in seclusion, there would be such a sacred place overseas. Indeed, there are many legends in the world that are worth exploring."
Li Weiyi asked, "Has the Grand Palace Master reached the Fusang Sacred Tree?"
Yu Yaozi shook her head slightly, said no more, and floated back to the blood mud space.
Afterwards, she went to the top of the stone peak of the "Chixian Ancient Road", turned into a stream of light, flew over the Soul Sea, and went to the depths of the Soul Sea and the dark clouds respectively. She didn't know how deep she went, a thousand miles or ten thousand miles.
After returning, Yu Yaozi stood at the center of the chessboard, gazing at the starry sky, tears welling in her eyes. Her heart was touched as never before, and she didn't know what she had realized. She could only whisper and sigh, "So this is how it is. This is how the world is... Master Wu, I see it, I see the road to the future."
Return to the blood mud space.
Yu Yaozi has regained his calmness and wisdom, and the aspirations for the great way in his heart are stronger than ever.
She came to the phoenix blood tree planted by Li Weiyi and gazed at the emerald green branches above.
The trunk of the Phoenix Blood Tree is ten meters high and about two meters in diameter, like a pillar.
"The Phoenix Blood Tree in Yuzhou must have been grown from a small branch of a Phoenix Tree. Unfortunately, the soil in Yuzhou is poor, so the Phoenix Blood Tree will never grow as tall and majestic as the legendary Phoenix Tree. In the Blood Mud Dimension, it is possible."
She whispered.
Then.
“Wow!”
In Zutianzhong, the Mirage Phoenix Tree collected from the ground of the East China Sea transformed into wisps of colorful mist and rushed towards the Phoenix Blood Tree frantically.
Suddenly, three new branches the size of fingers on the top of the Phoenix Blood Tree grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, blooming with a jade-green brilliance.
On the tree trunk.
The bark, with patterns like colorful phoenix feathers, bursts with brilliant light, as if it were cast from five colors of metal.
Li Weiyi stood in the distance, looking at the rapidly growing Phoenix Blood Tree and the phoenix feather-like mirage floating around him, and couldn't help but hold his breath.
You know, in the ruins of Dragon City, those immortal realm masters were using magic tools to bombard the Mirage Phoenix Tree, knocking off its leaves, and treating them as treasures. At this moment, Yu Yaozi seemed to want to infuse the entire Mirage Phoenix Tree with the Phoenix Blood Tree to promote its growth.
How miraculous would the Phoenix Blood Tree cultivated in this way be?
The Phoenix Tree reappears in the world?
You know, the legendary phoenix tree can gather the magical energy of heaven and earth, and then change the surrounding soil, turning it into spiritual soil and fairy soil.
Such a change is not just a few miles or dozens of miles, but at least as vast as a small habitat.
It can attract thousands of exotic birds to live here.
Half a day later, Yu Yaozi stopped.
The trunk of the Phoenix Blood Tree has grown to a diameter of about four or five meters, and is incredibly thick. Colorful divine light flows throughout it, and the phoenix feathers and bark are lifelike, like a fairy tree that has fallen to the earth.
Three new branches sprouted from the top of the trunk, each reaching a meter or two in thickness, growing into a towering tree a hundred meters tall, lush and leafy. The jade-green leaves were transformed into a palette of pastel colors.
The entire blood mud space was shrouded in colorful rays of light, the fragrance was fragrant, and feather patterns were floating up and down, as if they would last forever.
Li Weiyi wasn't sure if Yu Yaozi had completely released the Mirage Phoenix Tree yet, so he stepped up behind her and said, "Grand Palace Master, sooner or later you'll have to leave the Blood Mud Space and rebuild Lingxiao Palace. We have to make it clear upfront that although you used the Mirage Phoenix Tree to help the Phoenix Blood Tree grow and transform, I found the Phoenix Blood Tree, and the nutrients were provided by the Blood Mud Space. In the future, I'll only give you one new branch."
It took a long time to get Yu Yaozi's response.
Li Weiyi thought that she wanted to take over the Phoenix Blood Tree, so he prepared to continue arguing with her.
"Master, when did the Phoenix Blood Tree grow so big? Oh my god, is this still the same bare pillar?"
She desperately raised her head, her neck slender and white. Then she turned around, her phoenix eyes filled with surprise and joy. She pointed at the Phoenix Blood Tree and said, "It's many times bigger than before. Master, how did you do it? It's amazing!"
Li Weiyi stared at her, lost in thought for a long time: "Yu'er? You...why are you back again? You're back?"
"What are you talking about? Haven't you been locking me up here? What else did you say? You'll take me out in a while. I've already fallen asleep!" Yu'er said.
Li Weiyi took three steps forward and suddenly hugged her.
Yu'er was lifted off the ground by his powerful embrace, with only her toes barely touching the ground.
Startled by his sudden action, Yu'er pressed her face against Li Weiyi's chest and asked softly, "Master...what's wrong with you? You're not crying, are you? Who bullied you? I'll teach him a lesson for you. What's going on? Why aren't you talking?"
"It's nothing, I just want a hug. I thought you would never come back!" Li Weiyi whispered. At this moment, he was not afraid at all that Yu Yaozi would turn against him in the future. He sniffed her hair with the tip of his nose.
Some things are only realized how precious they are when you think you have lost them forever.
Yu'er didn't quite understand, but she could sense his emotions and feelings. She put her slender arms around his back and said, "Master, this armor is very stiff and cold. It makes my whole body feel cold. I want to change clothes."
"good!"
Li Weiyi released her and found a bunch of women's magic tools and robes from various bags, letting her choose for herself.
"Master, how do I take off this armor?" Yu'er asked.
Li Weiyi turned around and released his magical energy, causing the water dragon scale armor to shrink back into the dragon scale bracelet.
After a while, Yu'er, wearing a white Taoist robe from the Du'e Temple, a green belt around her waist, and a light green undershirt underneath, walked out of the jade boat. Her black hair was scattered on both sides of her cheeks, her eyes were soft and beautiful, and her pupils were sparkling.
Under the Phoenix Blood Tree that looked like a colorful fairyland, Li Weiyi was slightly dazed. She was too stunning. She was completely different from when she wore the dragon scale black armor. She was just like a fairy who walked out of a painting, with dark eyebrows like willow leaves, delicate nose, crystal lips, and skin and hair with a luster that seemed to emit spiritual energy.
Li Weiyi didn't dare to look at her so closely before.
"Master, please help me comb my hair and put it up. Here is the Taoist hairpin for you."
Yu'er handed the purple wooden comb to Li Weiyi.
"good!"
Li Weiyi helped her comb her hair, then pondered for a moment and said, "Yu'er, you should know that you are no longer an ordinary person, right?"
"Well, I seem to have grown up a lot, and... something must have happened during the time I lost my memory?" Yu'er said.
She is mentally mature and can think about many things. It is impossible for her not to notice the abnormality happening to her.
Li Weiyi said, "Something happened. Actually, you... for the next period of time, you will practice in the blood mud space, and Daqi will only accompany you."
"What about you, Master?" Yu'er asked.
Li Weiyi said: "Of course I will spend a lot of time with you, a lot of time."
"That's great! But what should I practice? Why should I practice the Twelve Free-Handed Fights of our Chan Sect?" Yu'er said.
Li Weiyi said, "All the classics of the Divine Martial Pagoda of Lingxiao Palace are there. You can practice whatever you want, even meditation to cultivate your mind power. As long as you want, Master can satisfy you."
…
Half a year later.
Deep in the realm of the dead, it is dark and cold.
The mountains are barren and desolate, the rivers are rotten, no living creatures can survive here, and even evil spirits and vicious insects are extinct and hard to find.
Li Weiyi, wearing the magic weapons and uniform of Shaoyang Division, stood in invisible state on a hundred-meter-high hill piled with bones and soil, looking at a group of dead souls six or seven miles away.
At the front, there were two corpse commanders with green light on their abdomens leading the way.
They have human bodies and animal heads, are tall, ride six-meter-long white-haired corpse beast mounts, and hold spears and funerary objects that emit a decaying smell.
"Clang, clang."
A black dead soul beast carriage was located in the center of the team, with dozens of dead soul warriors guarding it in front and behind. They had strange shapes and appearances, and all of them were ferocious.
This place is located in the extreme north of Qiyuan Plain.
It was the northernmost Yezhou among the three hundred states of Lingxiao in the past.
