Chapter 87 Cang Li in the Witch Clan and...
Cang Li had a pleasant conversation with Hou Tu in the Wu tribe. She felt that Di Jiang, who had a dark face and looked like he had ill intentions, seemed to have become much more amiable. Although his smile was strange, he did not seem to be plotting anything bad like before.
This is good; both sides being amicable and living in peace is only beneficial for cooperation.
Well, once the Witch Clan is dealt with, she can then figure out what's going on with the Demon Clan. Let's avoid fighting if possible. As the old saying goes, the primordial world is so vast, why insist on fighting to the death?
Cang Li shook her head. What's wrong with world peace? She just likes everyone to be harmonious.
"Houtu, I'll be leaving now. As soon as I get back, I'll send people to the Wu tribe to have technical exchanges with you. I guarantee you'll be completely transformed within a year!"
Cang Li spoke with great confidence.
Houtu nodded: "Yes! I believe you. Yuan, come here and go with the human race. Then come back with them."
Yuanli, who was standing behind Houtu, immediately stepped forward and clasped his hands in greeting to Cangli.
Cang Li: "No problem, no problem. You can go with Nini and return to the human race first. I'll catch up with you later."
Houtu knew that Cangli was going to Kunlun Mountain, and nodded to Yuan, saying:
"Listen to the chief. Once you're in the human realm, follow his instructions in everything. Don't make decisions on your own."
Yuan nodded again: "Yes!"
Cang Li waved to Hou Tu and then led Yuan to the Li tribe to pick up Nini.
Nini was worried all night. If Cangli hadn't sent someone back to deliver a message, she would have gone to Houtu to look for someone.
Early this morning, before dawn, Nini stood at the entrance of the Li Tribe, looking around.
Upon finally spotting Cang Li, Nini immediately ran over: "Great Chief! You're finally back."
Cang Li patted Nini on the shoulder and pointed to Yuan behind him, saying:
"I've reached an agreement with Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, and we'll be heading home today. This is an envoy from the Witch Clan; he'll be coming back with us. Oh, by the way, you go first. I'm going to Kunlun Mountain; I'll catch up with you later."
When Nini heard that Cangli was going to Kunlun Mountain, she nodded without hesitation: "Great Chief, you go. I will take this envoy to meet up with the tribesmen and then set off home."
Cang Li nodded and then went to greet He Li.
"Li, I've already spoken with your Houtu Ancestral Witch. She will arrange for one or two people from each tribe to study under the teachers from the human race. So don't worry, you'll soon have plenty of food."
A look of joy appeared on Li's face. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say. If other witch clans had any doubts about the human race, he certainly had none.
Because he had spent the entire winter among humans, and the winters among humans were very comfortable, no one froze to death or went hungry, and they had enough food even in winters without prey, Li believed Cang Li's words wholeheartedly and was so grateful that he was speechless. Finally, he crossed his hands in front of him and bowed deeply to Cang Li.
Cang Li saw that Nini had brought Yuan and the two hundred humans stationed outside before he rode the auspicious cloud to Kunlun Mountain.
This time, going from Buzhou Mountain, it was probably a case of familiarity after a few tries. In less than half a day, Cangli landed in front of Taiqing's cave in Kunlun Mountain. When he left last time, Xuandu said that next time he came, he could just fly directly to the cave. The rules of Kunlun Mountain were not that complicated. All the friends of the Three Pure Ones had come this way.
Knowing that Cang Li was coming, Tai Qing prepared the fruits that Cang Li liked to eat, and even made an exception by letting Xuan Du go up the mountain to catch some spirit beasts to roast. So when Cang Li arrived, the first thing he saw was a table full of delicious food.
"Master! You're so kind! I'm starving!"
The food of the Wu tribe wasn't very tasty, so she only ate a few bites politely. Although she wasn't hungry now that she had cultivation, Cang Li had a strong appetite and loved to eat.
Taiqing's lips curled up slightly, and he beckoned to Cangli: "Come and sit down."
Cang Li sat down opposite Tai Qing without any ceremony, washed his hands with water, and started eating with his hands.
After we had almost finished eating, I asked:
"Daoist Master, what do you want with me? Xuandu couldn't find me in the human race, so you went to the witch race to look for me."
Knowing that Cang Li was coming, Xuan Du brought his four children with him: ? ? ?
When did he go to the human race to find Cang Li?
Taiqing remained expressionless: "Well, there are some important matters. I observed that your cultivation has already reached the Quasi-Saint realm, but I noticed that you still haven't severed your Three Corpses, so I asked you to come and take a look."
Cang Li was deeply moved: "Daoist Master! It's not in vain that we've known each other! In this world, besides you and my mother, no one else cares about my cultivation like this!"
Taiqing couldn't suppress the urge to smile. In Cangli's heart, he was the most important person. Taiqing selectively ignored Nuwa.
Cang Li recalled his cultivation process and said to Tai Qing:
"I don't know, Taoist priest. Can you take a look at it for me? How do you do it?"
Taiqing pondered for a while, then placed his hand on Cangli's wrist. Xuandu and the four children remained silent, simply tidying up the things on the table before standing aside to wait.
Cang Li looked at Tai Qing with some curiosity. Wasn't this supposed to be taking her pulse? It was quite interesting.
Taiqing's spiritual power traveled through Cangli's meridians and found nothing unusual. Instead, he saw that Cangli's meridians were strong and his spiritual energy was pure and concentrated, not inferior to those who had cultivated for tens of millions of years. Taiqing was amazed and thought that Cangli was truly a favorite of the Heavenly Dao.
Seeing that Taiqing remained silent, Cangli became somewhat nervous:
"Master, is there something wrong with me?"
Taiqing snapped out of his daze and shook his head: "No, your cultivation is very solid, it's not a problem with your cultivation level."
Taiqing paused for a moment before proposing:
"If I may, I'd like to take a look at your spiritual palace."
In fact, this wasn't the first time Taiqing had visited Cangli's spiritual abode; it's just that Cangli was unaware of it.
Cang Li hesitated now. It wasn't that she didn't want Tai Qing to look at her, but she was afraid that Tai Qing would discover that she had created a Tai Qing figurine in her spiritual mansion. It wouldn't be good if the real Tai Qing found out.
However, Cang Li thought for a moment and realized that the spirit sprite in the spirit mansion was her idea, so why not just control it and prevent it from coming out? Therefore, Cang Li readily nodded:
"OK!"
Taiqing: "...Cangli, if someone else had made this request today, would you have agreed? Do you know that a cultivator's spiritual abode is extremely important and cannot be easily spied on? You are too careless."
Cang Li said, "Daoist Master, I know! But we only agreed today because of you. Don't worry, I'm not stupid. If it were the Jade Purity Saint who said this today, do you think I would even listen to him?"
Taiqing laughed.
The Jade Purity Saint, who had nothing to do in the early morning, came to find his elder brother to play chess, but his face darkened. By the time he got there, Taiqing had already sent his primordial spirit into Cangli's spiritual palace. Yuanshi held his breath and sat down silently to protect him. Although outsiders did not easily come to Kunlun Mountain, his elder brother's move was still somewhat risky.
Entering someone else's spirit realm is no fun; one wrong move and you could easily go astray and become possessed.
Yuanshi planned to have a good talk with Taiqing later, and also teach the unsuspecting Cangli a lesson.
Taiqing entered the familiar spiritual abode. He hadn't spoken before because Cang Li hadn't recognized him. To avoid being discovered by Cang Li, he hadn't explored Cang Li's spiritual abode. This time, however, he could finally see for himself why Cang Li hadn't been able to sever the three corpses.
Cang Li's spiritual palace was vast, seemingly capable of encompassing all things. His manifested primordial spirit was the large white tree in the center. Tai Qing quickly circled Cang Li's spiritual palace, then went to the base of the tree. Cang Li sat there quietly, and upon seeing Tai Qing approach, smiled and asked:
"Master, have you figured it out?"
As he spoke, he kept reminding himself that this was Taiqing himself, not a little elf, and he couldn't touch him!
Then hold down the restless claws.
Taiqing naturally walked over and sat down in front of Cangli, looking exactly like the "little elf".
A look of confusion crossed Cang Li's face. Was this not the Taoist priest? She had released the little fairy!?
Thinking of this, Cang Li was startled and hurriedly tried to suppress the "little elf" back, but just as he had this thought, he heard Tai Qing say:
“Your spiritual palace is fine, there is no problem. Perhaps other issues prevented you from severing the three corpses.”
Cang Li breathed a sigh of relief; it wasn't a little elf, but the Taoist priest himself.
Hmm? No problem?
Cang Li pondered for a moment and asked:
"Taoist Master, how did you sever the Three Corpses? I don't feel like my mind can split into good and evil selves. If it could, wouldn't that be schizophrenia?"
Taiqing: ?
Taiqing remained silent. Was this the reason he hadn't severed the three corpses? The cultivator himself resisted the splitting of his inherent good and evil self.
Cang Li leaned her head close to Tai Qing's; she was used to it.
"Taoist Master, tell me about it! What exactly does it feel like to be a Three Corpses?"
Taiqing exhaled and said to Cangli, "The Three Corpses are the good and evil self. The original intention is to allow cultivators to abandon desires, reach the state of oneness with heaven and man, and view all living beings equally. The good corpse, evil corpse, and self corpse can also be seen as allowing cultivators to clearly understand themselves. The three corpses that are cut off do not disappear; they can be summoned at any time."
Cang Li seemed to understand but not quite, and said to Tai Qing:
"Master, why don't you let me see your Three Corpses? Perhaps I'll gain enlightenment after seeing them?"
Taiqing hesitated for a moment before nodding: "Okay, I'll go out and show you."
As he spoke, he took the lead in leaving Cang Li's spiritual abode. Cang Li also opened his eyes and met Tai Qing's gaze.
Taiqing nodded slightly and said to Yuanshi beside him, "Second brother, if you want to play chess, wait a while."
Yuanshi: "Well, brother, you go ahead and do your work. I'm not in a hurry."
Then he looked at Cang Li, his expression darkening:
"Do you even have the self-awareness of a cultivator?! Is your Spirit Mansion a place where people can just enter so easily?! You're only doing this because it's my brother; if it were anyone else, you'd be dead countless times over!"
Cang Li: ...
Cang Li silently covered her ears, looking innocently at Yuan Shi, and only released her ears after Yuan Shi had finished speaking, saying:
"Yes, yes, yes! I understand, thank you for the reminder, sage. I won't do it again!!!"
Yuanshi calmed down a bit and showed a look of "this kid is teachable": "That's more like it."
Cang Li silently breathed a sigh of relief. Xuan Du and Ji Jie behind him didn't dare to breathe loudly. So Second Martial Uncle was like this to everyone! When they first arrived, they thought Second Martial Uncle was targeting the four of them when he reprimanded them!
After Taiqing and Yuanshi finished speaking, they said to Cangli:
"Concentrate."
It's not a big deal for Yuanshi to reprimand Cangli; Cangli does indeed need to be more vigilant.
Cang Li immediately looked over seriously and saw three Taoists who looked exactly like Tai Qing appear behind Tai Qing in an instant.
