Chapter 344 Needing an opportunity to comfort herself, Xu Hui immediately...
After comforting herself, Xu Hui immediately put the strange feeling behind her, pretending it had never happened, and changed the subject, "So why is he following you?"
"Master Qingchenzi calculated that the only chance for Grandmother to awaken lies with me, in the Haizhou Secret Realm. So, my great-grandfather decided to stay with me and look for an opportunity to awaken Grandmother."
Xu Hui glanced at his eyebrows, but didn't see anything. She rubbed her teeth and said, "Doesn't your grandfather care about your grandmother's affairs?" After all, she is his future wife, so why doesn't he have any reaction at all?
Wei Mubai's face paled, and he twitched the corners of his mouth. His voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, "Grandmother is currently... just a baby."
How crazy must the head of the Wei family be to want to get close to him?
Even if she knew that they would be husband and wife in the future, she would not get close to him now. Instead, she would try to avoid appearing in front of him. At least, the two of them would not meet until Jiang Moli grew up completely.
Otherwise, this fate would be completely lost!
But with Wei Mubai, a very promising grandson, it seems that the head of the Wei family is reluctant to break off this marriage.
"Ah? She reshaped her body and turned into a little baby," Xu Hui thought of the scene and felt inexplicably funny.
"Yes, both body and mind have returned to those of a child," Wei Mubai nodded slightly.
So he also felt embarrassed. His grandmother was still a baby, so he didn't feel comfortable going to the Jiang family to see her.
If Jiang Luoying hadn't come to him on her own initiative, indicating that the cause and effect of Jiang Moli's awakening was on him, he would not have been embarrassed to see his great-grandfather.
After Xu Hui figured it out, she suddenly felt that traveling through time and space to the past was extremely interesting. If only she could see her parents as children...
Thinking of this, my mood suddenly became depressed. After only the memories before the time travel were left, the scenes of my time with my parents became particularly clear.
She couldn't help but recall the past over and over again, especially during this period of time, when she was in this strange world of cultivation and at this strange time, and the feeling of loneliness was particularly obvious.
This is also why she did not continue to stay away from Wei Mubai, because he was really the only person she knew. Even if she forgot him, she would not feel unfamiliar with him and it was natural for them to get along with each other.
Xu Hui sighed, putting aside the strange emotions that suddenly emerged in her mind, and cheered herself up. "Where are we going now?"
"Let's go to the Mirage Clan Market first," Wei Mubai sensed that she was in a low mood, but after a moment, she returned to normal, which made a gloomy flash in his eyes.
For those who practice the ruthless way, their emotions will become extremely indifferent, and their feelings will gradually disappear. When everything becomes calm and nothing can move her heart, all that remains are responsibility and the principle of serving all.
There is nothing wrong with this; it is a shortcut to becoming a god.
But he didn't want to, and hoped that he existed in her heart.
But...what qualifications does he have to destroy her Dao heart?
A dark light flashed in his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then disappeared quietly. Never mind, she doesn't owe you anything, don't do unnecessary things!
Wei Mubai put on a faint smile and led the way gently.
The crystal tear bubbles were very strange, and it was difficult to feel weight inside them. In the crystal hall, it was the properties of the crystal that made them grounded.
But once you leave, it's as if you're free from gravity and feel as light as in space.
Xu Hui took a step forward and immediately jumped several meters away, then slid forward several meters due to inertia.
She quickly steadied herself, used light-body techniques, and quickly adapted to the change.
As soon as he took a step forward, he no longer flew forward lightly, but landed firmly on the ground.
The monks had very precise control over their bodies, so if she hadn't been paying attention, she wouldn't have made a mistake, just like Wei Mubai and Venerable Jiang Li, who stepped on the ground effortlessly, as if they were not affected at all.
Xu Hui paused, waiting for them to catch up, and then asked curiously, "The weight here feels wrong. I can hardly feel gravity. Logically, the island and the sea water can't stay on the ground. They should float up to the sky, right?"
Venerable Jiangli looked at her approvingly, "You already know this. Did the Wen family give you the information about the Haizhou Secret Realm?"
The Haizhou Secret Realm is one of the two most important secret realms of the Wen family. It can bring countless rare treasures to the Wen family every thousand years. These are not only exchanged from the Haizhou Secret Realm and the Mirage Clan, but also the materials exchanged with the Wen family by various families and powerful monks in order to enter the Haizhou Secret Realm.
The other is the secret realm where the Wen family's formations are inherited. This was expanded by successive generations of formation masters of the Wen family. It contains tens of thousands of years of formation inheritance of the Wen family. It is a secret realm that every disciple of the Wen family who practices formations must enter, and it is also the one that most needs to be entered. It is not open to outsiders and is extremely mysterious.
What was inside? After the disciple came out, he forgot everything except the formation he learned.
The Haizhou Secret Realm is kept secret. No matter who enters, they must swear with their heart of Taoism not to disclose any of the contents inside.
People from other families who enter will have the contents engraved on the jade slips, but no one else is allowed to read them, otherwise it will destroy his Taoist heart.
Until the secret realm is opened again, only those who are qualified to enter can watch. First of all, they have to enter so that it is not considered a leak, because before watching, they also have to swear with their Taoist heart that they are not allowed to tell anyone else.
In addition, thousands of years have passed, and the people who previously engraved the inscriptions have either ascended to heaven or passed away, and very few are still alive.
Therefore, people from aristocratic families have a certain understanding of the secret realm of Haizhou.
Wei Mubai had seen those jade slips and naturally knew the situation, but he couldn't show it to Xu Hui because it involved the heart of Tao and was a matter of great cause and effect. Xu Hui was no longer a member of the Wei family.
They didn't expect that Xu Hui actually knew about it. The Wen family used it as a trump card, so they naturally wouldn't put the information in the Wenxin Book Tower. If Xu Hui knew about it, it could only be something the Wen family said.
Xu Hui shook her head. She was just making an analogy with the moon and found that the gravity here was not as strong as that on the moon and was more similar to space.
"It is true that for half a year, the island and the sea water are upside down." This half year is also one of the main reasons why the Mirage Clan cannot leave the sea water. Being upside down will cause their blood to flow backwards, and then their legs will gradually atrophy, causing their tails to lose vitality.
But it’s different in the ocean. With the strength of the shark tail, it is not afraid of the risks brought by being upside down.
Therefore, the life of the Mirage Tribe in the ocean or on land is almost fixed, and not as free as imagined. They cannot go ashore or into the water as they please.
"Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature. Be content with few desires and do not seek in vain." These words suddenly flashed through Xu Hui's mind.
The Mirage Clan is now restricted in every way. Could it be the result of their trying to defy fate?
Wei Mubai shook his head. "Cultivating immortals is a struggle against heaven. How can it be said to be a vain pursuit?"
"Your method of seeking is wrong," Venerable Jiang Li said calmly, "You can fight, but you must do so in accordance with the principles of the Great Dao, rather than taking a wrong turn and taking a path forbidden by Heaven."
In fact, the way of heaven in their world is quite tolerant, giving opportunities to every living creature. Human cultivators have a stronger sense of Taoism than other races, and their wisdom is far superior to that of other races. However, their lifespan is short. To embark on the path of cultivation, they need spiritual roots and they need to work hard all the time to change their fate before their lifespan comes to an end.
Some monsters have long lifespans and strong bodies from the beginning, but they have bloodline restrictions. Some monsters are naturally good at cultivation, but they will encounter various disasters, which are much more difficult to overcome than the thunder disasters faced by humans.
Some demon tribes have weak bloodline power, making cultivation difficult, but have extraordinary reproductive abilities. If given the opportunity, they can easily break the bloodline constraints and achieve success in cultivation.
For example, if a rabbit demon has the opportunity to obtain high-quality elixirs for cleansing essence and marrow, it will be able to make breakthroughs one after another. Unlike naturally powerful demons, the same elixirs can only remove impurities from them and make their bloodline purer.
The demons are at another extreme. Their physical fitness is the strongest, and high-level demons are natural warriors.
After tens of thousands of years of development, the human race, the demon race, and the monster race have gradually found their own way to become immortals, so the world has gradually become dominated by these three races.
The spiritual world was developed later. The souls of the dead returned to the underworld and were in a chaotic state. When they absorbed enough energy and were reborn, they would re-enter the cycle of reincarnation.
However, as the three tribes became more and more powerful, they were gradually able to keep their souls clear after death. After coming to the underworld, they were unwilling to be muddle-headed or reincarnate again. Gradually, they figured out the methods of spiritual practice, which expanded into the spiritual world.
Other races, such as the Mirage Clan, perhaps because they lack souls, or perhaps because they live at the bottom of the sea and do not have too many desires, gradually fall behind in the cultivation system.
When they woke up and wanted to change their fate, they took the wrong path and eventually ended up in the current situation.
So it’s not that there is a problem with changing your fate, but that the method is wrong!
Xu Hui nodded thoughtfully. Seeing the market gradually appearing in front of her, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "What products do they have that are extremely valuable, worth collecting, and have great uses?"
"The most useful is naturally the Renshui Essence, the purest spiritual fluid in the deep sea. It can double the efficiency of alchemy and forging tools. The second most useful is the Tracing Cause Gu, which is crafted from thousands of poisonous insects in the deep sea. It has the ability to trace the past or peek into the future, but using it to change fate can also cause causality to become distorted, leading to backlash. It's much more dangerous than what cultivators can calculate. But it allows for exceptional clarity, eliminating the risk of error or misdirection."
"The Mirage Light Condensed Marrow is a crystal condensed from the core of the Mirage Clan. It is the carrier of their power. They condense one every hundred years. After they succeed, they pour their power into it and cultivate themselves again. In just half a month, they can refine it again. When they have ten, they take them into their bodies, stimulating rebirth and replenishing their lifespan for another thousand years. But so far, no one of the Mirage Clan has actually condensed ten completely. Many will inexplicably break or fail at some point. This makes their Mirage Light Condensed Marrow seem both important and not so important. If they can't condense ten completely, the remaining ones are useless."
"Then what is the function of this Mirage Marrow?"
"After swallowing it, you can walk freely in the ocean and see through all the illusions on the seabed without worrying about being deceived by the mirage."
"Then it seems that we need the Mirage Marrow," they must go into the sea.
"That's right, so this trip is to look for and buy Mirage Condensed Marrow."
"Is it difficult?" Isn't it said that it is useless against the Mirage Clan?
Venerable Jiangli smiled mysteriously, "It requires an opportunity."
As for what kind of opportunity? Of course, you need opportunity to know!
He has never bought it, so how would he know?
