Chapter 134: In the year of the catastrophe, Wei Mubai tried to refine the Qianxia Pill...
Back then, in order to refine the Luoxingcao for Qianxia Pill, Wei Mubai broke into a remote place and went through untold hardships to collect mature medicinal plants and several seeds, but when he came out he encountered a demon beast in the out-of-body stage.
With Wei Mubai's strength at that time, even with many treasures and the protective sword techniques left to him by his elders, he still managed to kill the monster after a life-and-death struggle.
Unexpectedly, he encountered a dying counterattack. The monster had the ability to control space, which is quite rare. It directly threw him into the space-time rift.
In the crack, Wei Mubai used up all his magic weapons before he gathered enough spiritual power at the last moment, tore open the space, and broke into the world where A Yan was.
Fortunately, Ah Yan was burning her soul and cultivation at that time, activating the ancient teleportation formation. The fluctuation of spiritual power touched the wall of the world, and Wei Mubai noticed it.
In the cracks of time and space, everything around is nothingness. The universe is everywhere, but it is invisible and intangible, and cannot be seen or touched at all.
This is the protection that the boundary wall provides to the small world. Unless it is broken from the inside, the outside world cannot easily detect the small world protected by the boundary wall.
The boundary wall is a predicament that traps the creatures of this world. Unless they ascend, they cannot leave.
Strictly speaking, the ancient teleportation array is a forbidden technique and also an evil technique. It is a way to break restrictions at the cost of burning cultivation and soul.
At the same time, the boundary wall also serves as a protection. No matter how severe the flood is outside, all creatures within the boundary wall are safe.
Therefore, if Ah Yan had not tried to activate the ancient formation and break the boundary wall, Wei Mubai would never have discovered this world.
What’s even more amazing is that this is a bloodline cause and effect traction array.
In other words, when the young man enters, he will be teleported to the world where he was born and raised. The same will happen to Wei Mubai, who will return to his original world.
So Wei Mubai took action without hesitation and helped Ayan.
It was a mutually beneficial thing. His ethereal root successfully broke through the boundary wall, making the activation of the formation particularly smooth. Ah Yan paid almost no price and only suffered minor injuries.
Before leaving, Wei Mubai solemnly warned Ah Yan that activating this formation was extremely cruel and would come at the cost of one's own cultivation and soul, so he asked her not to do it again.
However, in order to bring her lover back, Ah Yan obviously started it again.
And the young man might have obtained some opportunity in that world, which allowed him to save Ayan's life despite severe consumption and backlash!
As expected, the young man's brows were cold and stern. "I took the core of that world and used its energy to completely close the transmission channel. In the process, I also saved Ah Yan's soul and realm."
......
Center of the earth!
Even a newbie like Xu Hui knows how important the center of the earth is. I guess that world has already become a small world, right?
There is actually another term for the center of the earth, which is called the origin of the world.
Every world has its origin. When the origin is exhausted, the world will come to an end and will gradually disappear.
From the day a world is born, it has been condensing its origin. When it converges to a certain level, the center of the earth will be born.
From the birth of the first core of the earth, living things gradually appeared and it became a vibrant world.
After that, the world will naturally embark on the path of promotion, and various rules will be born, forming various small worlds.
Reflecting on the origin of the world, some worlds condense into a core of the earth, and advance with the power of the whole world; some give birth to multiple cores of the earth, develop comprehensively, and when the quantity and quality increase, they will also advance; or simply gradually dissipate the power of the core of the earth, so that the creatures in this world can benefit, and finally the creatures become extremely powerful, leading the world to advance.
No matter which one, they actually lead to the same destination, which is the promotion from the small thousand world to the middle thousand world.
As for the process of the Middle Thousand World's advancement to the Great Thousand World, there was no record of it in the jade slips Xu Hui read. He searched for a lot of information, but still could not find any explanation.
It is possible that the world where Wei Mubai is located was promoted from the Small Thousand Worlds to the Middle Thousand Worlds, and the Wei family, as an ancient and large family with a long history in this world, has relevant information about the world's promotion.
However, regarding the method of advancing from the Middle Thousand Realms to the Great Thousand Realms, this world itself is still in the Middle Thousand Realms and has not experienced it yet, so naturally it does not know.
Xu Hui guessed that there were endless geniuses in this world, and there would always be brilliant people in all walks of life. This was because the world had chosen multiple geocentric and all-round development paths for advancement.
The young man's original world was one in which the entire world's strength was used to support the center of the earth.
Therefore, it needs an absolute chosen one to help it achieve its goal of leading the entire world to advancement.
Unfortunately, the way of heaven was blind and chose a selfish person as the son of destiny. He also encountered a young man who was extremely intelligent, cruel and ruthless, and directly plotted against the son of destiny and cut off the ascension channel.
After that, he still didn't feel relieved, and was trapped by his inner demons, so he ran back to seek revenge.
This time it’s even more outrageous, they directly dug out the center of the earth.
Without the center of the earth, we are like going back to the time before liberation.
Xu Hui could already imagine the miserable appearance of that world. Without the support of the earth's core, energy would become less and less. Spiritual power, magic power, and other forces supporting the evolution of living beings would gradually disappear.
The monks' cultivation levels regressed and they died. In order to fight for the increasingly scarce resources, the whole world was plunged into bloodshed.
However, it was no use. The path to immortality was cut off, the Dharma Ending Age arrived, and they could only die in that world.
The Heavenly Dao will fall into a deep sleep until the center of the earth condenses again, but that will take tens of thousands of years.
The young man is really cruel!
The entire world's center of the earth was used to fill the cracks in the boundary wall caused by Ayan opening the ancient teleportation formation, making up for the sin of Ayan who almost harmed the entire world.
Only then did Heaven let her go, allowing the young man to successfully protect her.
Otherwise, for the sin of breaking the boundary wall and almost allowing external matter to invade the world, she would never be able to atone for it even if she died!
It was precisely because the young man made amends and repaired the boundary wall that the remaining earth's core essence could be used on Ayan and temporarily save her life.
Hearing this, Xu Hui couldn't help but grin and looked at Wei Mubai worriedly.
He was slightly stunned, then explained, "The Void Spirit Root can transform into a special energy within the boundary wall, allowing it to pass through silently. However, the ancient teleportation formation uses a method that directly breaks through it."
It's like one is a wall-walking technique, and the other is a wall-breaking technique, the results are naturally different.
Wei Mubai's crossing between the two worlds did not affect the boundary, so naturally there would be no backlash.
For him, the ancient teleportation array was more of a positioning array than a teleportation array, allowing him to find his native world smoothly.
Xu Hui breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Wei Mubai was okay.
However, she turned around and asked, "If teleporting between the two worlds is so difficult, how did you end up here?"
The young man paused and spoke truthfully, "We were ostracized and thrown out by the Heavenly Dao. That ancient teleportation array has only been activated to two destinations: one is my native world, and the other is here."
......So it's because you're too good at causing trouble that you're disliked by your own Heavenly Dao?
It’s hard to describe Xu Hui. I really don’t know what to say.
Her eyes rolled. "How about you join the Wei family? I'll place Miss Ayan with us, and you'll come with us into the new secret realm to search for treasure. Don't worry, the Wei family always protects their own family. I'll transfer some points to her account. That way, even if something happens to us, she'll be well taken care of in the Wei family."
Xu Hui had her reasons for doing this.
This guy has a bad personality, too cold and tough!
But Miss Ayan is his weak point, and both of them are Mahayana cultivators. They are definitely a great help to the Wei family.
What's more, although Miss Ayan is in such poor health, she can still refine the Phoenix Blood Crying Pill to treat cross-domain injuries. Her talent in alchemy is really amazing. This is definitely a sixth-grade pill.
Just based on this, the Wei family will find a way to cure this girl.
After all, although her realm was still there, her cultivation was only one tenth of what it was. It would take at least a thousand years for her to reach the Mahayana stage again and be ready to transcend the tribulation and ascend to heaven.
So how much benefit could staying in the Wei family for thousands of years bring to the Wei family?
Once successful, the sixth-grade alchemist Xuantian Zun of the Wei family can directly prepare to ascend to heaven and overcome the tribulation without having to suppress his cultivation and wait for Wei Mubai to grow up.
The young man saw through her little trick at a glance and snorted coldly, "You little girl, you're dreaming."
Xu Hui raised an eyebrow. "We can't predict what the new secret realm will hold. With Miss Ayan's condition, Senior's cultivation is so powerful that she's naturally not a burden. But there are always unexpected events. Previously, Yi Qingxue obtained a wooden comb that had an evil spirit on it. You should know how unreasonable evil spirits can be. Miss Ayan is weak, so there's no guarantee she won't be chosen as a sacrifice."
"Of course, you might not take a little bit of evil spirit to heart, but what if something unexpected happens? Who knows what's in the new secret realm? If you're also too busy to take care of yourself..."
"But if you die, how long can she live in the Wei family?" The young man looked at her steadily and suddenly said, "You are not allowed to go!"
After a pause, he emphasized, "Don't worry, I will bring your lover back safely."
Xu Hui smiled at him, "I know you want me to stay and give her life force, but I can only keep her weak and alive until her lifespan runs out. But when I grow up, things will be different. Who knows if my ability will mutate and I will completely master the power of life force? Right now, I can only extract it from plants. I can't actually use it yet. I can only treat it as spiritual power to replenish people's deficiencies."
"But we all know that vitality is the very essence of all living things. It shouldn't be limited to this ability. It should be able to bring back the dead, directly replenish Miss Ayan's vitality, allowing her to live a long and healthy life. But in the end, it's just a consumable!"
"There must be something wrong, or maybe my cultivation is not enough, and I haven't done it well enough, which is why the effect is so ineffective. So shouldn't you let me go out and try my luck, improve my own strength, and solve Miss Ayan's problem in one fell swoop?"
The young man frowned. "That's a twisted logic. If you don't enter the secret realm, you won't be able to attain enlightenment?"
"Do you know how poor my comprehension is?" Xu Hui spread his hands and said innocently.
"Impossible!" The young man was in complete disbelief. He was less than twenty years old, but he was already in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm. He also mastered the ability to extract the vitality of plants. This was something that many cultivators with plant affinity could not do. How could his comprehension be poor?
"It's true. I couldn't even see the possible harm that the technique given by Yi Qingxue might bring to me," Xu Hui said sincerely. Wei Mubai and Wei Muheng couldn't see it because they didn't have the five chaotic spiritual roots, and she herself... simply lacked knowledge and experience.
There was no other way. It had only been a few years since she came here. She had to practice, gain experience, and complete missions. She really didn't have much time to study. She could only find time to read some things, but compared to the vast amount of knowledge in the world of cultivation, it was really a drop in the bucket.
The ones she was currently reading were all carefully selected by Wei Mu, so that she would not look like an ignorant child.
But of course I wouldn't say this to the young man.
"That's the martial arts technique I modified, so naturally you can't see it," the young man said calmly. He didn't think that this was due to poor comprehension.
That immortal was the one with the purest five chaotic spiritual roots. The "Chaos Light Body Art" was his family's martial arts technique. After he reached the stage of distraction, he modified it many times according to his own spiritual root cultivation, and successfully promoted it from an earth-level martial arts technique to a heaven-level martial arts technique.
After the young man got it from the cave of the casual cultivator, he made some modifications.
Because he has five spiritual roots, not chaotic five spiritual roots.
Generally speaking, the speed of cultivation of a single spiritual root is faster, several times that of five spiritual roots, and five spiritual roots can be regarded as waste.
However, the young man was gifted and intelligent, with extraordinary comprehension. He cultivated immortality with his brain and managed to transform various opportunities and techniques to suit himself.
The same is true for the "Chaos Light Body Art". Since he does not have the Chaos Five Spiritual Roots, he directly changed it to the "Chaos Five Elements Light Body Art". It can be used by cultivators of various spiritual roots, and it is still a heavenly-level technique. It can be said to be a genius!
...Oh my god, it turns out you were the one who tricked me!
Xu Hui silently rolled her eyes and said solemnly, "It's true that I'm not very intelligent. I also hope to find rare treasures and opportunities in the secret realm to make up for my shortcomings. Miss Ayan is in the Wei family, so you can rest assured. Protecting her life is not a problem. Miss Wei San was in such poor health back then, but she was fine. If you don't believe me, we can ask my eldest brother to tell her fortune. I'm sure you've heard of his fortune-telling skills."
"That's right!" At this time, the door opened silently, and two figures appeared silently. They were Wei Muheng and Venerable Canglan!
Quxian City was within the Wei family's sphere of influence. How was it possible that Wei Mubai and Xu Hui almost got into trouble but they knew nothing about it?
The Wei family had noticed the unusual movement in the inn as early as possible. Venerable Canglan and Wei Muheng rushed over immediately. The reason they did not show up was that they were worried that once Venerable Canglan took action, the young man would ignore them and take the two of them directly into the Endless Abyss, which would be troublesome.
I originally wanted to find a suitable time, but I didn't expect Xu Hui to actually plan to persuade the young man to join the Wei family.
Wei Muheng immediately looked back at Yunxian Realm and took out the only Time Guarding Pill.
After taking it, the power of time in the pill will penetrate the whole body, forming an invisible barrier, firmly locking the vitality in the body, slowing down or even stopping the speed of life passing, making the user seem to stay in the youth at the time of taking it forever.
But it has great side effects. The efficacy only lasts for a hundred years. After a hundred years, the efficacy disappears, the vitality will be quickly depleted, and all vitality will be lost in just three days.
At the same time, while the drug's effect lasts, one cannot practice cultivation or attain enlightenment. One is like a mortal who can do nothing except maintain the state of mind.
She couldn't even get injured, because once injured, healing would become very slow and difficult. A wound that others could recover from in ten days would take her more than a hundred days.
Therefore, after taking this pill, one will become an ordinary person like a porcelain doll, except that one will not have to worry about life during these hundred years.
Wei Muheng smiled gently, his lips maintaining a comfortable temperature. His voice was neither hurried nor slow. After explaining the advantages and disadvantages, he spread his hands and said, "Do you want to hear the results of my deduction?"
The young man held the medicine bottle, the deep meaning in his eyes gradually intensified, "Go ahead."
"Miss Ah Yan faced a great calamity. If she could overcome it, the sky would be wide open and free for birds to fly; if she couldn't, her soul would be shattered. Obviously, she didn't overcome it, but you cleverly concealed the calamity. But this is not the right path after all. There is a price to pay for taking shortcuts!"
"Then what is the righteous way you are talking about?" The young man's face was stern, and a chill gradually gathered in his eyes, as if he would take action if his words did not suit his taste.
"Cross over," Wei Muheng remained calm and indifferent, as if he didn't feel any threat. "Only by crossing over can you ascend."
He casually looked up at the sky. "The laws of nature here are quite tolerant. As long as you don't go against their will, they won't specifically target outsiders."
"Heh," the young man said disdainfully, pointing at Xu Hui, "Isn't this just going against the will of heaven?"
As a Mahayana cultivator, he was naturally not unaware of the abnormality in Xu Hui's soul.
It's just that this has little to do with him, so he doesn't need to care about it.
Wei Muheng smiled mysteriously, "How do you know that her appearance is not God's will?"
"Impossible," the young man said with a mocking look, "Her soul is still abnormal." If she really wanted to follow the will of heaven, she should completely blend in and not let her abnormality be easily seen.
Wei Muheng glanced at Xu Hui and said calmly, "She just did what she wanted."
Xu Hui was stunned, as if she understood, but also as if she didn't understand at all. Wei Muheng said that she was just doing what she wanted.
Could it be that...her true heart is unwilling to integrate into this world?
She couldn't help but glance at Wei Mubai, feeling anxious and evasive.
Wei Mubai patted her shoulder gently, speaking impartially and directly to the core, "Just stick to what you want to stick to. With the Heavenly Dao Contract, you will not be rejected by this world."
As for those things she doesn't like and doesn't want to integrate into, what does it matter?
Anyway, they will ascend sooner or later, right?
Wei Muheng smiled, spread his hands, and said rather shamelessly, "She has my brother to protect her, what about you?"
The young man finally understood, and his expression became serious. "Are you negotiating a deal with me?"
Because he and Ayan are not from this world and are even rejected, their actions will be restricted in many ways, and diseases that could have been cured may turn into accidents.
The method of rebirth that Xu Hui talked about would not be as smooth as Liaochen's, and would encounter various accidents.
The disaster that Ayan was supposed to hide will reappear and burst out with greater power.
In short, everything goes wrong.
This is the price of breaking into other worlds!
Wei Muheng’s deal was simple: they would join the Wei family and contribute to the Wei family until they ascended.
The Wei family protected them with their good fortune, which was considered as giving them an identity in this world. Only in this way could their subsequent plans go smoothly.
Apart from Wei Muheng, only the Tianyan Sect and the Tianming Master Zhang family can accomplish this.
However, the Tianyan Sect and the Zhang family each have their own concerns. The closer someone is to the rules of heaven, the more they avoid interfering too much.
Wei Muheng had to pay a certain price to achieve this.
At least his backlash will get worse!
Xu Hui frowned, feeling a little uneasy, and held Wei Mubai's hand tightly.
She didn't expect things to develop like this. Recruiting the young man and Ayan would be so difficult. If she had known earlier, she shouldn't have interfered.
Wei Mubai shook his hand back and nodded at her, affirming her actions.
Xu Hui was puzzled and waited quietly for further developments.
After thinking about it, the young man realized that this was the best outcome, so he simply drew a contract out of thin air, wrote down the deal between the two, and swore an oath with his own blood.
"I, Wei Yuan, and my Taoist companion Han Yueyan, take Cangshan Mountain as a mirror and the Way of Heaven as a witness... We have joined the Wei family... We will never betray and remain unchanged forever!"
Wei Muheng smiled faintly and also swore an oath, "Heaven and earth are my witnesses. On behalf of the Wei family, Wei Muheng, I hereby swear to accept Wei Yuan and Han Yueyan as members of the Wei family. From now on, we will share honor and disgrace and stick together. Witness!"
As the last sentence fell, everyone present vaguely felt a hint of the breath of rules.
Looking at Wei Yuan again, he was surprised. "Are the laws of heaven here so strong?"
He was a ruthless man who had plotted against the Way of Heaven and directly killed the Son of Destiny. Naturally, he had extraordinary insights into the Way of Heaven and rules.
I used to think that no matter how powerful the laws of nature in this world were, their constraints were limited.
After all, the cultivation in this world is extremely prosperous, and there are many people who have broken free from their shackles and ascended to become immortals. It is much stronger than his native world, and he thought it was the result of the weakness of the way of heaven.
Now it seems that it is not that the rules are not strong enough, but that the way of heaven is tolerant enough, and it can accommodate all rivers. However, in fact, the constraints are not weak, but can be described as strong and harmonious.
Wei Muheng smiled slightly and agreed with his statement.
In fact, what he didn't say was that since he had paid a huge price to bind the two people, he naturally wanted to maximize the benefits and used the strongest constraints.
Only he, Wei Muheng, can attract such a powerful Heavenly Dao Contract!
Now that the cooperation has been reached, Wei Yuan gave Han Yueyan the Time-Preserving Pill without hesitation, and when she woke up, he sent her to Wangyun Fairyland for resettlement.
With the Sui Nian Jing Shou Dan, she doesn't have to stay in a coma all the time. She can stay awake and wait for Wei Yuan's return.
On the way back, Xu Hui finally couldn't help but ask, "Brother, how are you?"
Wei Muheng smiled and said, "It's nothing, you don't need to worry. Also, I want to thank you on behalf of the Wei family."
Xu Hui was puzzled. "The Wei family has no shortage of Mahayana cultivators. I guess I'm being superfluous."
She originally didn't know that Wei Muheng would have to pay such a huge price to recruit these two people. If she had known this, she would not have said anything.
"No, the price I paid was for Mu Bai, and also for the Wei family," Wei Muheng chuckled and explained, "Falling into the Endless Abyss is Mu Bai's calamity. Hiding it is not an option, as it will lead to even greater consequences. I originally only expected that you would be the accident, Mu Bai's only chance of survival, but I couldn't be sure whether this accident would ultimately succeed."
"Just now, your actions dispelled Senior Wei's thoughts and gave Mu Bai a glimmer of hope. I simply turned the opportunity into a sure thing. Suffering some backlash is the normal consequence of peeping into the laws of heaven. The one who truly helped Mu Bai was you!"
Wei Mubai doesn't have to disappear for a thousand years, which is greatly beneficial to both him and the Wei family.
As the young master of the Wei family, it is only natural for him to suffer a little injury to facilitate this matter!
"Then, Mu Bai doesn't need to enter the Endless Abyss anymore?" Xu Hui suddenly realized that Wei Muheng's compromise and concession were not for Wei Yuan and Han Yueyan, but for the sake of heaven!
Wei Yuan and Han Yueyan were merely opportunities to trigger the heavenly tribulation. Wei Mubai's crisis stemmed from the test of Heaven from the beginning to the end, and was an indispensable tribulation for him on the road to ascension.
That's why Wei Muheng and the Wei family did not intervene. It's not that they couldn't, but if they intervened, there would be a more severe disaster waiting for them.
And Xu Hui was that accident, helping Wei Mubai break the disaster without suffering a greater backlash.
Wei Muheng's move was just to go with the flow and follow the trend.
Wei Yuan and Han Yueyan have never been the focus, Wei Mubai is!
After understanding all this, Xu Hui couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief. Then she held Wei Mubai's hand tightly, her eyes gleaming with joy. "In this way, the calamity that befell you has finally been resolved. From now on, you don't have to worry about falling into the endless abyss!"
Wei Mubai nodded, his eyes were so gentle that they seemed to melt everything. The deep affection in his eyes was like delicate silk threads, entwined in Xu Hui's heart.
"All this is thanks to you." His voice was low and affectionate.
A brilliant smile blossomed between Xu Hui's eyebrows, like the brightest flower in spring, "I'm so glad you're okay!"
