Chapter 367 Identity (1)
Without the support of a tree trunk, Ji Rong had to rest after flying for a while.
Xi Tong then said softly to Ji Rong, "Lord Rong, you have to carry both the lord and the palace, it must be very tiring for you. Let's rest here for a while and I will carry the lord instead."
Ji Rong nodded and stopped on the spot.
Xi Tong took out many ribbon-like bird feathers from her storage ring and adorned herself with them. She then examined herself, took out some spirit linen, and deftly used her wings and claws to manipulate the pieces of cloth, making straps for the spirit linen bags.
She re-tied the modified large spirit sack to her body, so that the tail of the sack, which was full of items, hung down in front of her chest, completely blocking the newly grown claws on her chest.
With just this little bit of dressing up, Xi Tong really looked like a black ribbon bird.
The mountain sparrow, now transformed into a mountain sparrow, fluttered its wings and landed on Xi Tong's back. Ji Rong carefully examined Xi Tong and said, "Good sister, we still need an identity, and your eyes are too bright, so it might be difficult to hide them."
Xi Tong laughed and said, "What's so difficult about that?"
So she immediately closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were all gray. She softly called out, "Sister Aji, my eyes have been damaged by the new god, and now I have to carry your child, so it is really difficult to travel."
"Take a chain and lead me by the hand."
Ji Rong immediately replied, "That's right, Sister Ahei."
She looked at Shanshui, who had already stood up and was about to speak, and immediately pointed at him, saying, "Ajun, young children who have only recently developed intelligence can only listen and not speak, because they cannot speak. Now that you are my child, just listen."
Upon hearing this, Shan Shui sat back on Xi Tong's back.
Xi Tong and Ji Rong then fabricated their own origins and sources, one after the other.
In this newly created bird life, they are cultivators from the Western Continent. Their ancestors owned a spirit mine, and they usually just guarded the spirit mine and did not go out. They are honest and dutiful birds.
But disaster struck. Many gods suddenly appeared in the Western Continent. Unable to defeat the new gods, they lost their territory and were driven out of the Western Continent by the new gods.
After leaving Xizhou, the two of them first went to Yuxu Palace.
However, there are many cultivators in the Jade Void Palace now, and the three of them have no outstanding skills. One of them is blind and the other is young, so they were rejected by the Jade Void Palace.
So they flew to the Guangyang Mountains to seek a living from the great Lord Xi.
After speaking, Ji Rong put the "Three Blades" into the Shoudao Palace and then replaced the Shoudao Palace with the Xibao Palace.
Their explanation, coupled with their genuine royal cultivation, allowed them to fly smoothly all the way to Guangyang Mountain.
At the foot of Guangyang Mountain in the Guangyang Mountains, mountain tortoises, wild boars, and wild geese were bound by thin chains of spiritual fire, their limbs locked and their necks suspended. They were lined up in the air like skewered meat, very neatly arranged.
Beneath them were chains of fire, and if they dared to move, they would be burned and scorched by the flames.
With these two layers of constraints forming the Fire Refining Array, they could neither approach the land nor exercise their authority, making their ordeal extremely difficult.
Originally, there was a mountain wolf next to the wild goose, but the mountain wolf kept trying to run away and kept cursing the swear words it had learned in Juzhou. The enraged Lord Xi breathed more fire on it and burned it to ashes.
At the foot of the mountain, guarding these minor gods with the character "山" (mountain) was Si Nu. She didn't mind the heat and directly used her massive body to surround the fire-refining array that trapped the three gods in the middle, then lay down on the scorching ground and pretended to sleep.
Ji Rong thought to herself that she now looked like a noble phoenix, and her Guardian Palace had also changed drastically. This Si Nu had never directly contacted her before, so she would never have guessed that she was a Qing generation cultivator from the Jade Void Palace.
So she tightened her wings, raised her neck, and carefully landed about two zhang away from Si Nu, asking, "Senior, are you the Great Sage of Guangyang Palace?"
Si Nu opened her eyes, glanced at Ji Rong with a fawning expression, and said coldly, "I am Si Nu, the divine servant of Lord Xi. Who are you looking for, bird? Turn left to the side, and you will see a flight path."
Fly straight up, and you'll reach Guangyang Palace. After that, give your name and go find it. Then he closed his eyes again.
Ji Rong grinned and said, "Great Sage Si Nu, we're not looking for anyone. We came from the Western Continent to see if there are any suitable jobs for us sisters here."
Then, Ji Rong recounted in detail the illusory bird life that she had created just two days ago, while carefully taking out a storage ring from under her wing and placing it in Si Nu's claw, saying, "Please give me your guidance."
Si Nu didn't take it; she let the storage ring fall to the ground and sink heavily into the soil. She said, "You two have both cultivated to the level of Emperor, and you only have one child with you. In the Western Continent, you should be considered ancestors. Why do you need to come out and make a living?"
"Sigh." Ji Rong frowned and said with a worried expression, "My sister and I lost our father at a young age and became sworn sisters to live together. In the past, we were indeed happy in the Western Continent. Moreover, because we had both cultivated to the level of emperors and had treasures in our hands, no one dared to bully us."
But recently my sister had a conflict with the new god, and in a moment of carelessness, the new god scratched her eye and injured her brain; now she's not very bright.
"What does that god look like?"
"A white-haired tiger!" Ji Rong exclaimed solemnly, "A white-haired tiger without a single speck of blemish. It is extremely powerful, able to fly and walk on the ground as if it were flat ground. As soon as it arrived, it asked us to move, but of course we were not going to."
At that time, I was calling to my cubs in the den when my sister Ahei flew out to meet Him. When my sister saw that the newcomer was a tiger, but his body did not radiate any divine light, she did not take Him seriously.
Because of this slight, as my sister turned to return home, the tiger god leaped into the air and approached her, slapping her hard on the head, then grabbing her by the neck and scratching her face. He injured my sister's soul and blinded her. Now my sister is both blind and dull-witted, and I have to carry her away.”
After hearing this, Si Nu continued, "Then why don't you go to the Danxue Mountains or the Chijian Mountains?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Rong immediately put on a bitter face and said, "Great Sage, the Chijian Mountain Range is renowned. Who would dare to go there?"
We also went to the Danxue Mountains, but it's really embarrassing to admit. We've been staying in the Western Continent all year round, focusing on raising our young, and we never knew that the wild baby cultivators there weren't edible.
As she spoke, Ji Rong's voice grew even lower, and she said, "My sister and I have been traveling for many days, and we have only been able to fill our stomachs with grass and fruit. We are very hungry."
I saw that the little slender ones in the Danxue Mountains were very beautiful, so I stopped and caught a lot of them to eat.
We had only eaten a few when we were chased by dozens of cultivators from the Danxue Mountains. The leader, a ribbon-bird cultivator, even said that we had broken the law, that we could be spared the death penalty but could not escape punishment, and that we had to spend our lives mining to atone for our sins!
"Thanks to the old bird's weakened state, we barely escaped."
After saying that, Ji Rong stretched out her wing claws and pried the storage ring out of the soil. She wiped the storage ring clean with the grass next to her and put it back into Si Nu's claws, saying, "Please give me your guidance."
This time, Si Nu weighed the storage ring in her hand and said with satisfaction, "There's work to be done."
As she spoke, Si Nu glanced at Xi Tong, whose eyes were closed and who was carrying a large sack, and said sympathetically, "Hey, after you two go up there, go find Juan Gui, don't look for Ya Nu."
After saying that, he stopped talking.
"Thank you!" Ji Rong said happily. She bowed to Si Nu again, then led Xi Tong, who was pretending to be blind, and slowly flew up the mountain.
Once they left, Si Nu opened her eyes again. She took out the spirit crystals one by one from her newly acquired storage ring and slowly put them into her huge storage ring. Then she threw the empty storage ring into the fire refining array.
In no time, the storage ring was melted into dust.
