Chapter 201 Heshun Village
The house demolition incident has come to an end.
After being warned many times by Nan Xiao, Xiao Shitou didn't dare to steal her power again.
On a quiet night, Nan Xiao successfully broke through to the peak of foundation building.
Although her speed is a little slower than Lu Huai and the others, she is still one of the best compared with other people of the same age.
Nan Xiao was quite satisfied with this.
Her good self-esteem did not last long and was torn to pieces by reality.
…
Half a month later, Lin Jingyuan returned from the Tianjian Sect and once again gathered several disciples together.
His brows were furrowed, his face was solemn, and his expression was rare and serious.
Jiang Xia asked, "Master, what happened?"
Everyone knows the reason why Lin Jingyuan comes home late.
Judging from his current appearance, I'm afraid there are some serious issues involved.
Lin Jingyuan sighed and said slowly: "Based on the last incident with the demon tribe, we have calculated that there may be a major catastrophe in the lower cultivation world in the next few years."
He looked off into the distance, his voice becoming slightly heavy. "We still don't know the exact cause of this catastrophe, but all signs indicate it's coming with such force that I'm afraid it could overturn the entire lower cultivation world."
Lin Jingyuan's words undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to everyone.
Qiao Yue frowned: "Master, is this related to the demon tribe last time?"
Lin Jingyuan shook his head, his tone slightly melancholy.
“Yes, but not entirely.”
Several disciples didn't understand.
He continued, "This matter has far-reaching implications. Knowing too much will not benefit you right now."
"You just need to remember that you don't have much time left. You need to break through to the Spiritual Transformation stage as soon as possible to have a chance of survival."
Everyone looked at each other, feeling mixed emotions. This was too sudden.
…
Nan Xiao didn't listen to the rest of the words. She was stunned on the spot, as if struck by lightning, with a buzzing in her ears.
Only Lin Jingyuan's words "cultivate to the point of becoming a god" kept echoing in his mind.
Nan Xiao felt completely hopeless.
She has been in Xiaoyao Sect for four years, working diligently and never slacking off. She just broke through to the peak of foundation building some time ago.
Now tell her to cultivate to the level of a spirit as soon as possible.
It's like just finishing the elementary school curriculum and then telling her that it's time to take the college entrance examination.
There is definitely hope for other brothers and sisters, but it is really difficult for her.
······
In the end, Nan Xiao didn't know how he walked out of the hall.
I just feel that the future is bleak.
The others dispersed, each busy with their own affairs.
Nan Xiao found a quiet and deserted place and lay down.
I thought I could escape my original fate without Chen Chaochao, but another great catastrophe occurred.
It’s really not easy to live a simple life.
Nan Xiao lay there from day to night, and the depression in his heart gradually subsided.
She stood up and dusted herself off, full of fighting spirit. It was just a matter of cultivating to the level of a spirit being, so she might as well give it a try.
After Nan Xiao figured it out, she started her life as a queen of the film industry again.
During the day, he practiced sword skills with the five elders, made pills in the afternoon, and meditated at night.
......
This kind of life lasted for more than half a year.
One day.
Nan Xiao had just finished practicing sword skills and, as usual, packed up his things and prepared to go back to the yard to make medicine.
At this time, the fifth elder called her.
"Smile."
Nan Xiao stopped what he was doing, looked up at him, and asked doubtfully, "Elder, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
The fifth elder slowly said, "In a small village at the foot of the mountain, villagers have been calling for help. Villagers have been disappearing recently, and the disciples who went to investigate have also lost their trace."
"Your fellow brothers are either in seclusion or gaining experience. I'll trouble you and Xiaolu to go and see what's causing this trouble."
Nan Xiao answered without thinking: "Okay, then I'll go back and prepare."
She had heard about this matter from other young disciples before. Because the reward resources were quite rich, many disciples rushed to complete the task as soon as it was posted in the task hall. They thought that a monster had come down the mountain to cause trouble and it should have been dealt with. Unexpectedly, even the disciples disappeared.
It takes a lot of courage to dare to cause chaos under the sect's feet.
The fifth elder said, "I'll have someone send you information about the small mountain village later. Please take a closer look."
He continued, "Also, this is the first time you and Xiaolu are going on a mission alone. If there's anything you can't handle, don't force it. Come back and get help. Safety comes first."
Both of these children are talented, and he would feel sad if anything happened to either of them.
But it cannot be protected forever. It still needs to go out and experience more wind and rain so that it can grow into a towering tree in the future.
Nan Xiao chuckled and said, "Got it, Elder, don't worry. I will capture them easily and any demon or monster will be defeated."
Fifth Elder: “…”
It's good for children to have confidence, but it's also bad for them to be overconfident.
In the end, despite all the warnings, he was still a little worried.
......
Not long after Nan Xiao returned to the yard, Lu Huai came looking for her with the jade slip.
Nan Xiao was quite surprised to see him and asked curiously, "Why are you here? The elders won't let you practice extra today?"
Lu Huai placed the jade slip on the table and sat down.
He said, "It's like this. As soon as you left, a young disciple came to the Fifth Elder and said that another disciple was missing. The situation was urgent, so the elder released the person and allowed us to leave as soon as possible."
Nan Xiao nodded: "I see, okay, then you go back and pack up and see if there is anything you need to take with you. We will leave in an hour."
"good."
…..
Xiaoyao Sect is not too far from the small village.
Nan Xiao and the other man flew on their swords for only half an hour before they arrived at the entrance of the small village.
At the entrance of the village, weeds grew wildly, almost completely covering the already rugged path.
Nan Xiao swung his sword and cut off all the weeds that were in the way, revealing the original appearance of the path.
"The weeds have grown like this. Does anyone really live here?"
Nan Xiao was a little skeptical. If she hadn't taken out the jade slip to confirm the exact location, she would have really suspected that she had found the wrong village.
Lu Huai said: "There may be other entrances, but we don't know about them."
"That's right, let's go find the villagers and ask about the situation first."
The two continued to walk inside while talking.
Not long after, at a road intersection, I saw a stone tablet with three big characters "Heshun Village" written on it.
However, the stone tablet is covered with cracks and moss, and it looks like it has a long history.
Nan Xiao: "It seems that I found the right place. Let's go."
Seeing the stone tablet, the two of them felt a little more at ease.
I hope you found the right place.
The two of them quickened their pace.
The situation at the village entrance also came into view.
The houses are all built with adobe and wood and are distributed in an orderly manner.
The fallen leaves and debris on the ground were blown all over the place by the wind, and it seemed that no one had lived there for a long time, giving people a feeling of desolate and empty space.
Nan Xiao moved to the nearest house, knocked on the door, and after making sure that no one was living there, he pushed the door open and walked in.
She reached out and touched the dust on the table. It seemed that no one had lived in this house for a long time.
