Chapter 259: Meeting the Taoist Priest Again and Xu Hui Almost Getting a Side Stitch, From Halfway...
Xu Hui almost got a stitch in the side and fell from mid-air. Fortunately, her mind moved at will and the magic sword caught her.
The giant scorpion and the giant eagle died instantly, but what followed were two balls of evil spirits that looked like living creatures.
Xu Hui's mouth twitched. This was really not a solution.
But time was urgent and she could not think of a better way. She could only urgently draw away the vitality of the two mountains to offset the evil spirit.
Two more high mountains became lifeless, and there seemed to be more evil spirits in the air.
But Xu Hui no longer cared about these things. Not only had her cultivation level regressed again, she had already become the middle stage of the out-of-body state. She was just a little bit away from falling to the early stage of the out-of-body state.
What made her even more distressed was that after being contaminated by the evil spirit, she was not as flexible in drawing out the vitality, and it took her a lot of effort to fix it.
This made her more vigilant, and she couldn't rely on her ability to extract vitality and eliminate evil spirits to do whatever she wanted.
When the evil spirit in her body reaches a certain level, she may not even be able to extract her vitality. At that time, she will be truly helpless.
Therefore, she should not only not be willful just because she has the confidence, but she should also be more prepared in this dangerous place.
Now find a place to get rid of the evil spirits in your body first, so that you won’t encounter danger again later and won’t have time to get rid of them, and then they will accumulate more and more, and eventually harm you.
She did it as soon as she thought of it, not caring about the regret. She tore open a teleportation talisman and left the place where three giant beasts had died and the blood was thick.
Deep underground, Xu Hui ran for three days and three nights without knowing the direction, until she ran into a large lava lake.
"Crack," her outermost defensive magic weapon shattered directly, and Xu Hui immediately replaced it with an earth spiritual magic weapon that was not afraid of fire.
After isolating herself from harm, she discovered that this place was like an underground sea, except that it was magma instead of sea water, but the area was so large that there was no end in sight.
And in the magma, there are groups of fiery red rhinoceros-like creatures, with fiery red bodies and four horns. Their voices are like those of seven or eight-year-old girls, crisp and cute.
However, it was really strange to hear the silver bell-like laughter of a little girl coming from the mouths of a group of "cows".
Xu Hui knew that this strange beast was called rhinoceros spirit, and it was a, uh, very delicious creature.
Only a small piece of meat on the forehead of the rhinoceros spirit is edible. The rest of the meat is dry and hard, and eating it will make people crazy.
But this is a delicacy that countless people yearn for. It is said that the meat on the forehead is comparable to the best delicacy in the world. After eating it, you will feel ecstatic and even the gods cannot control their taste.
No one can escape the charm of the meat between the foreheads of rhinoceros spirits, and no one will not miss it after eating it.
Therefore, rhinoceros spirits were the most widely raised in ancient times, but they still ate extinct exotic beasts.
Unexpectedly, the ancient god was not only smart but also had a good mouth. He actually raised a group of them in his own tomb.
Thinking of the legendary delicacy, Xu Hui couldn't help swallowing.
Just look at the adjectives: the best taste in the world, addictive to immortals and gods, endless aftertaste... and you will know how delicious it is.
Or... catch one and try it?
But then she became discouraged. The strength of the rhino spirit was no worse than the three giant beasts and birds before. Moreover, they had extremely high defense, thick skin and strong bones, and could spew magma, with amazing destructive power.
What's more, as far as the eye can see, there are at least thousands of rhinoceros spirits. They not only live in groups, but also like to attack in groups.
Ordinary immortals can only run for their lives when facing them.
Given Xu Hui's current condition, it is simply a pipe dream to want to eat them!
Fortunately, Xu Hui observed them carefully and found that perhaps because they grew in the magma, they were not invaded by the evil spirit.
Normally, the rhino spirit is very gentle, with a personality as lively and innocent as a child, and will not attack easily.
For her, this rhino's territory offered her a brief respite. Carefully, she emerged from the lava, crawling along the scorching rock wall until she reached a certain height.
After checking the location, he found it was not far from the radiation range of the magma sea. He made some slight movements so as not to attract the attention of the rhino spirits, and then he stopped.
Following the same pattern, he dug a hole for himself again, used a formation to conceal his breath, and then sat cross-legged in meditation.
This time she finally breathed a sigh of relief. The surrounding fire spiritual power was very strong and had no evil spirit.
She has the five elements of chaotic spiritual root, and can use fire spiritual power to nourish earth spiritual power, and then use earth spiritual power to nourish gold spiritual power. By repeating this cycle, she possesses the five elements spiritual power.
However, this conversion is much less efficient than direct absorption, but it is currently the fastest method.
When the fire spiritual power entered her body, she felt a burning sensation, which immediately gave rise to earth spiritual power, followed by gold spiritual power, water spiritual power, and wood spiritual power, forming the five chaotic elements and flowing into her meridians and dantian.
After gaining spiritual power, he began to remove the evil spirits from his body. He used the vitality of a spiritual medicine to cleanse his body from the inside out, ensuring that no trace remained.
After that, she continued to practice with peace of mind, recovering her spiritual power, and when her spiritual power was sufficient, she tried to return to the late stage of out-of-body state.
But she found that even though she had been promoted once, it was even more difficult to go back after regressing.
Could it be that the aftereffects of the evil spirit finally affected her?
Xu Hui frowned and checked her body over and over again, but found nothing abnormal.
I also asked the system and got a negative answer.
[Ding, the scan is complete, the host's physical condition is normal! ]
However, this result made Xu Hui even more confused. She could clearly sense that the speed of absorbing spiritual energy was far slower than before.
It seemed that as her cultivation level regressed, even the outstanding qualifications of the five chaotic spiritual roots were shrouded in a layer of haze.
Could it be that as her realm drops, her spiritual energy absorption speed will gradually slow down, and eventually her spiritual roots will degenerate back to those inconspicuous, inferior five spiritual roots?
So, does evil spirit also affect talent? Turning a genius into a loser?
Or perhaps it was because she herself was a waste with five spiritual roots, and she had to use the most precious treasure to cleanse her essence and marrow to have her current qualifications.
And the evil spirit just made her return to her original state?
Thinking of this possibility, Xu Hui couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. "System, will Tai Sui turn a genius into a waste?" she asked anxiously.
[Ding, according to tests, offending Tai Sui will bring disaster and bad luck, the specific manifestations of which vary from person to person. For ordinary mortals, it may manifest as bad luck, illness, and a general lack of success. For cultivators, however, it will be an even more severe test. Cultivators are already defying the will of heaven, so the punishment will naturally be even heavier. Please, host, take this matter seriously!]
"Face it? What should I do to face it?" Xu Hui was completely confused.
[Ding, searching for a solution. Method one: go to a temple and worship, praying for the master's blessing to dispel the bad luck; method two: stay away from Tai Sui. Over time, the bad luck will naturally dissipate; method three: directly eliminate Tai Sui and use the accumulated merit to offset its influence.]
Xu Hui: ...
"First of all, I can't get out," she said weakly. This forbidden area was so huge that if she wanted to get out, she would probably have to find the ancient god's palace that Yi Qingxue mentioned and obtain the token mark. But now, she even had difficulty getting out of the cave.
Forget about asking the master for help. Now she regrets so much that she didn't find Chen and ask for a few more Golden Lotuses right away.
If the lotus seeds were here, we wouldn't be in such a dilemma, right?
Second, it is impossible to hide. The entire forbidden area is full of evil spirits. Where can she hide?
And the third one... haha, Xu Hui really doesn't think she has the ability to eliminate Tai Sui.
How presumptuous! If she had this ability, how could she be so embarrassed?
"System, the suggestion is good, it would be better if it is more reliable next time." You should give me a feasibility report and calculate a success rate.
Isn't it a high-tech system? How can it be so casual? Shouldn't there be a detailed plan of ten pages?
Xu Hui thought to herself in a cheerful way, wondering how Wei Mubai was doing and whether he had noticed that she was missing. She must not let him be fooled by that woman Yi Qingxue.
And Wei Mubai, whom she was thinking about, rushed to Tianyan Sect as quickly as possible.
This sect hidden in the mountains has never been open to the public. Disciples are recruited by people from the sect who are out and about. They find good candidates and bring them back quietly. Everything is up to fate.
Also because they never welcome guests and don't even have a proper front door.
Every disciple was secretly teleported to his own cave when he went out and came back. Therefore, the world only knew that the Tianyan Sect was in this mountain range, but no one knew where it was exactly.
Wei Mubai knew some inside information. In fact, the Tianyan Sect not only did not have a gate, it did not even have a sect headquarters.
They were very casual. After bringing their disciples back, they would randomly find a mountain, build a cave and live on the top of the mountain.
Traveling depends entirely on teleportation. The teleportation jade talismans received by new disciples are often only for their master, fellow disciples and a few close friends who have gradually developed relationships with them.
In addition, eating and drinking rely on teleportation, which requires learning, or you can directly use the image stone or something like that, so you can watch and understand it yourself.
It can be said that independence, self-reliance, social anxiety and loneliness are brought to the extreme.
Tianyan Sect's teaching method is destined to make it impossible for any disciple except the extremely talented to learn it.
Of course, when it comes to practicing calculations, talent determines everything. Without talent, they will not accept you. It is considered as leading the master into the door, and the practice has reached the pinnacle for the individual.
Therefore, the Tianyan Sect is not mysterious, but they are really not suitable for interacting with outsiders.
Apart from the necessary worldly cultivation of the mind, even the disciples of our own sect are not very friendly.
Therefore, there is no need for sect halls, arenas for fighting competitions, places for communication and learning, etc.
Because this path is very unique, one's own path is one's own and cannot be influenced by others. One can communicate and learn with other cultivators, and verify each other's completely different insights.
So they are not mysterious, but this is the way of the Tao.
Wei Mubai knew something about this because of Wei Muheng, so he stopped the flying boat directly after arriving, ordered the others to stay on standby, and flew deep into the forest holding Xu Hui's body. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the dense forest.
Not long after entering, I found a road vaguely visible, guiding the direction.
Wei Mubai stepped on it without hesitation. The road became clearer and clearer as he walked along. From the blooming flowers to the ice and snow, it seemed as if it had gone through the four seasons and the passage of time.
Gradually, he was no longer walking on the ground, but seemed to be walking on the void.
Wei Mubai continued to move forward without hesitation. His feet gradually became airborne and lotus flowers bloomed beneath him. With every step he took, the lotus flowers scattered and new lotus flowers gathered in front of him.
Then the lotus turned into snowflakes, the spring flowers turned into autumn chrysanthemums, and when the winter plum blossoms bloomed, he finally came to an ordinary little courtyard.
It was the courtyard where Taoist Master Qingxinzi appeared at the previous auction.
The same big tree and stone table and stone bench, but the difference is that the futon is gone and replaced by a lounge chair.
Taoist Priest Qingchenzi still looked like a carefree and unrestrained middle-aged Taoist priest. He said with a smile, "Oh, you're finally here."
Wei Mubai paused, "Master, your plan is brilliant. Please enlighten me!"
