Chapter 366 Changes (2)
"You really will come back?" Shan Wu was overjoyed when he heard this. He circled around his tail, then stared at Shan Shui, twitching his ears, and said, "Don't lie to me."
Shan Shui smiled gently and said, "Why would I lie to you? If I were to go and not return, I would have you carry me there, and I would certainly not have asked my friend Ji Rong to see me off."
Shan Wu tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said, "That's true. If you really thought you were going to die out there, you wouldn't have asked your nephew to accompany you."
Ji Rong put the mountain and water down, letting the two brothers talk, and then went to Qing Pingzi's side.
Just as Qingpingzi finished carving one piece of jade and was about to exchange it for the second, Ji Rong grabbed Qingpingzi's claw with one of her wings and said, "Senior brother, I have something to ask of you."
Qingpingzi was abruptly interrupted and was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was Ji Rong, he grinned and asked, "What does Junior Sister want?"
Ji Rong said, "Senior brother, the spiritual veins that the Origin Regeneration Pool has received are not enough, so the Mountain and Water God wants to travel across the Nine Provinces and unite with the Hundred Sons to receive all the spiritual veins."
Once we take over, we will be able to achieve the circulation of spiritual energy, and the prosperity of all races will be just around the corner. In that case, your Myriad Laws Immortal Path will surely flourish like a profusion of flowers.
However, doing so would surely cause disturbances in the spiritual flow and attract attention from all directions.
Senior brother, nowadays, the Danxue Mountains have convenient transportation, so it's inevitable that all sorts of people will come and go.
Write a letter in your book, asking your nephew Gu Lin to dispatch some disciples of the Jade Void Palace to cross the Danxue Mountains to repair the formation and guard the mountain.
It would be even better if my senior brothers and sisters wanted to come.
She pointed to the sky obscured by clouds and said, "Senior brother, there's something else. No one has ever compiled a masterpiece as astounding as the 'Great Compendium of All Laws.' What if someone with malicious intent finds out and destroys this place?"
After thinking for a moment, Qingpingzi agreed, "That's right. If this book is destroyed, I can recarve it. But if the others are gone, then they are truly gone."
But in that case, wouldn't the Danxue Mountains appear to the world as nothing more than an appendage of the Jade Void Palace? Lord Jue…?
Ji Rong spread his wings and said, "Big brother! Come here. I want to call some more disciples from Yuxu Palace to strengthen the defenses. Are there any spare hilltops for them to stay on temporarily?"
Jiao Jue nodded and said, "There are still seventeen mountains, enough to accommodate everyone. Senior, you may summon all the cultivators from Jade Void Palace." After saying that, Jiao Jue pointed to Ji Rong's tree trunk and said, "Right now, she is the most important person."
Qingpingzi said happily, "That's great, I'll write it now."
He wrote a letter on a blank jade piece, recording everything he had seen and heard in the Danxue Mountains, and called on interested cultivators from the Jade Void Palace to come and ride this wave of fortune in the mortal realm.
Furthermore, Ke Ben, who is now in charge of the defense of Yuxu Palace, is to dispatch twenty skilled warriors from the outer perimeter to patrol the Danxue Mountains.
He marked it with his claw mark and then asked a cultivator from the Jiaojue Sect to deliver it to the Jade Void Palace.

At the foot of Maoshan Mountain in the Danxue Mountains, Ji Rong, carrying the Shoudao Palace and the mountains and rivers, found Xi Tong, who was tending the cattle, in the field. She took out the letter that Jiao Jue had written to Xi Tong from the string of storage rings around her neck and said, "Now, we have to go together."
After reading the letter, Xi Tong bowed respectfully to Ji Rong and said, "I think this day has been many years in the past."
Then, Xi Tong turned to look at Niu Fen, who was bent over planting spiritual vegetables in the field, and called out with deep emotion, "Niu Fen, stop working, you should stop now, I'm leaving, and I might not come back again."
Under Xi Tong's urging, Niu Fen, who had already cultivated to the Supreme Realm, was secretly delighted upon hearing this. However, his mind raced, and he immediately cried out, feigning surprise, "What did you say?! You're leaving? No way!"
As Niu Fen howled in the field, he watched Xi Tong fly into the cave. Only when he saw Xi Tong actually carrying out a spirit sack full of items did his face truly show reluctance.
Niu Fen thought to himself, "In the past, this bird cultivator, relying on her extraordinary cultivation, often used me as meat to roast and made me a laborer. After finishing the work, I still had to cultivate, which was really unbearable. I often wished she would die and leave as soon as possible."
But now that he knows she really is leaving, he is extremely reluctant to let her go.
Xi Tong, however, looked relaxed. She searched under her wings and found five storage rings. Following Ji Rong's example, she quickly picked some mature fire spirit grass and began to weave them.
After weaving a straw rope, she tempered it with fire to make it as strong as iron before stringing the five storage rings together and hanging it around Niu Fen's neck, saying, "Lord Niu Fen, it's me, Black Bird, leaving now. You've really worked hard these past years being used by me."
These rings are all my cherished possessions, so I'm giving them to you. Use as many as you like, but you can't let anyone else use them. If I come back and see someone else with my things, I'll skin you alive!
Hearing this, Niu Fen was even more moved. He hugged Xi Tong's feet and cried out, "If you come back, I will return everything to you, including all my treasures."
So, even after Xi Tong and Ji Rong left, Niu Fen was still clutching those storage rings, crying and wailing uncontrollably.
On the way to the Guangyang Mountains, Ji Rong, carrying the Shoudao Palace and the mountains and rivers, flew and laughed at Xi Tong, saying, "You are so generous. You have tamed Niu Fen."
Xi Tong, however, said with a relaxed expression, "Lord Rong, I taught him another lesson today."
What class?
"You can't trust pretty birds."
"Haga?"
Xi Tong flapped her wings and approached Ji Rong. She smiled gently and said, "That storage ring has restrictions."
During the time I was away, no matter how much Niu Fen cultivated, he could only reach the King Realm; how could he possibly break through?
I also told him that those were my prized possessions, and given his stubborn nature, he certainly wouldn't ask Juejun and the others to forcefully break them open, haha.
Ji Rong looked at Xi Tong, who was amusing herself, and thought that Xi Tong was stubborn but soft-hearted. Although Niu Fen could not open the storage ring, wasn't that straw rope, which had been forged into something as tough as iron, a gift from her?
But when they return, Niu Fen will have to fend for himself. Ji Rong thought to herself that, given Niu Fen's tendency to seek a master, he would definitely run up Longfeng Mountain to present the treasure to Jiao Jue as soon as he finished crying for Xi Tong.
Sure enough, less than an hour after Ji Rong and his group flew away, Niu Fen returned to his cave and began packing up his belongings.
He put all his treasures into three storage rings and then went to Dragon Phoenix Mountain.
When Jiaojue heard Ah Hong report that a four-horned ox from beyond the clouds had come to pay its respects, Jiaojue knew that Niu Fen had arrived.
As soon as He stepped out of the palace, He saw the ox with watery eyes, clutching its own paws. Then, the ox loudly and falsely howled, "Lord Jue, I have finally found you! I am so miserable!"
After saying that, Niu Fen skillfully lifted the three storage rings containing his treasures with his hooves and said, "Lord Jue, this is all my treasures. I offer them all to you. You must accept them, because once that big black bird returns, I won't have a single spirit crystal left."
Jiao Jue chuckled as he accepted the storage ring and asked, "You've given it all to me, so what will you use?"
Niu Fen said matter-of-factly, "I eat spirit herbs, and now that we've planted a lot, we don't need to buy any anymore."
Jiao Jue squinted and thought for a moment, then said, "Forget about offering it as a tribute; I'll keep it for you."
Go back first and properly tend to the land. In a few days, the Divine Servant will come to you. While Xi Tong is away, he will guide your cultivation. If you need anything, you can ask him, but it will have to be deducted from your spirit crystals.”
Upon hearing this, Niu Fen was overjoyed. He was secretly pleased with himself, thinking that he was indeed worthy of being the ox of Lord Jue, Lord Ji, and the two divine servants, and that he always had a powerful backer.
Next, Jiao Jue tested Niu Fen's cultivation direction and gave him some pointers. He only stopped talking when A Bai came to find him.
So, the ox, having reaped a bountiful harvest, immediately and tactfully bowed and took his leave. Before leaving, he sincerely kowtowed three times to Jiao Jue before happily swishing his tail and walking back.
