Chapter 38 Mu Nianxi () At this time, in the Luoyun Sect of Yunmeng Mountain, a green light approached a low hill with abundant spiritual energy. The light stopped and a handsome young monk walked out. This person had the cultivation level of the initial stage of Jindan. As soon as he landed, he took out a token and shook it, breaking through the large formation filled with evil spirits. He hurriedly entered a cave and sat opposite a beautiful woman. They were the brother and sister of the Mu family who were ambushed and killed by Xuyang on the road. At this time, the young man who had made the fake elixir had obviously successfully formed the elixir. "Second sister, you sent a note saying it was urgent. What happened?" "Look, that person has already arrived outside Yunmeng Mountain, and is waiting for you and me to deliver the information about the Holy Tree." The beautiful woman's fair face looked a little tired. She sighed softly and handed over a delicate green talisman. "What? That person really dares to come to Yunmeng Mountain!" The handsome young man cried out in shock and anger, then he closed his eyes and read the contents of the note. He remained silent for a while, then raised his head in an uncertain state. "In recent years, I have actively strived to be elected as a deacon during every competition. During the competition three years ago, I personally led a group of new disciples to the forbidden area. With the information I have collected about the forbidden area, I think it is enough to meet that person's requirements. But will that person really let my sister and I go after getting the information? Otherwise, I think I should just confess to my uncle!"
The handsome young man became more and more excited as he spoke. It seemed that he had been under a lot of psychological pressure in recent years because of the things he did to betray his family and sect. "Over the years, I have also put in a lot of effort to collect all the forbidden magic books that I could find, but I found that the method of restriction that person used was very strange. It was not any of the methods circulated in Tiannan at all. I suspect that he is not a cultivator from Tiannan at all! Moreover, I have been contemplating the restrictions all these years, and even my cultivation has slowed down. The last time I met with my uncle, I was scolded." A look of frustration flashed across the pale and tired face of the beautiful woman. After a moment of silence, she continued bitterly: "In addition to my great-uncle Mu, who is a Nascent Soul cultivator, there are two other uncles who hold great power in the sect. The sect master uncle, in particular, is very domineering and ruthless. Last time, I rejected his playboy great-grandson's proposal for dual cultivation, which offended this uncle and made him lose face. He was very unhappy. Even my great-uncle complained about it and blamed me for not considering the overall situation. Once that uncle knew that we were secretly collecting information about the Holy Tree and were restricted by someone, he would probably ignore my great-uncle's existence and force the two of us to use the mind-searching technique, or even directly search our souls." "What should I do? Do I really have to bet my life that the man will keep his promise?" The handsome young man suddenly shouted and seemed to be a little overwhelmed. However, anyone who is planted with a divine ban by an unknown senior master and forced to betray the sect would probably live in fear all day long. "Let's go. After all, that person has saved us before, otherwise we wouldn't be in this situation. Let's take it one step at a time and try our best. When we meet that person, don't say anything. I'll take care of everything! We've already been delayed for a day. I'm sure that person must be getting impatient." The beautiful woman looked at her brother with a complicated expression and let out a long sigh, as if she had made some decision. A quarter of an hour later, two beams of light, one red and one green, rose from the large formation on the hill and went straight out of Yunmeng Mountain. Two days later, when the brother and sister followed the sound transmission note and arrived at the place agreed by Xuyang, they saw from afar a man in ancient clothes who looked like an ordinary man, waiting there. He hesitated, thinking that he had found the wrong place, and did not dare to land in the air. "Come down! It's me." At this moment, the beautiful woman suddenly heard the faint magnetic voice of Xuyang. Before Xuyang transformed, he had not refined the horizontal bone. He had always relied on a special instrument for transforming and transmitting sound - the sound transmitting horn, to make a rough and hoarse voice like a broken gong, imitating the magic path. However, although the voice had changed, the unquestionable tone and composure were still the same as the scene twenty years ago. The beautiful woman calmed herself down, called out to the young man, put away her escape light, took two quick steps, and bowed. The handsome young man also did not dare to be negligent and bowed to pay homage. "Mu Nianxi brought my brother to visit Senior. We haven't seen each other for many years. Senior has become more extraordinary and elegant!" "No need to be polite. Your brother is quite lucky. He has actually advanced to the Jindan stage. Judging from the stability of his Dan Qi, his cultivation is not much worse than yours." Xuyang smiled faintly and glanced at the two of them. "I have been waiting for you here for three days. I hope that what you two present will satisfy me."
Seeing Xuyang speak so directly, the beautiful woman's face changed slightly, and she suddenly knelt down, supported herself with her hands, and bowed her head deeply to the ground. "Senior, I don't know what you want to do by asking for the information of the Holy Tree, but once the Holy Tree is lost, the three Yunmeng Sects will definitely search for spies, and the two of us will definitely not be able to escape the sect's questioning. My sister and I are alive because of your rescue last time, but even ants have to live in fear. I beg you to show me a way out after you get the things! Nian Xi knows that this is a bit too much, and I am willing to serve you with my humble appearance, and only ask you to show me mercy and remove the restrictions on my brother." When she looked up again, the woman's pretty face was already filled with a slightly complicated pleading expression. Her black and white eyes were already filled with tears, and she looked like she was about to cry, which was very pitiful. Hearing this, Xuyang's heart moved. He thought he could agree to this woman's commitment. Seeing her delicate and beautiful appearance, and the fact that she was a virgin, Xuyang was really aroused. Before Xuyang transformed, his cultivation was still shallow and he had a strong sense of crisis, so he had been practicing alone. And now after transforming, in addition to becoming a spirit, he can now fight against any late Nascent Soul cultivator with his extremely powerful ninth-level physical body and his innate dragon flame. Even if he met a powerful 'Queen Yuan', he would probably be able to remain undefeated and escape safely. To keep warm, it would be nice to have a beautiful woman serving him, which would be a change of pace occasionally. Besides, after hundreds of years of hard practice, can’t you enjoy yourself? "Second sister, why do you have to do this?" The handsome young man was shocked when he heard this and screamed, but there was a hint of strangeness on his face. Although it was inconspicuous, Xuyang still caught it with his divine sense. "You are willing to help, but you should bring the things here first." Xuyang raised his eyebrows without comment, muttering, "Isn't this a brother-supporting demon?" However, looking at the behavior of this brother, he is not as good as his sister. He doesn't even make a superficial gesture to fight for the first or second. You can accept a woman, but it is impossible to support your brother! "Bah! What a heartless and cold-blooded person!" Xuyang secretly despised this man's coldness. He took the jade slip that the young man hurriedly handed over and began to check it. This so-called holy tree is actually the place with the most spiritual energy in the entire Yunmeng Mountain Holy Vein, where the "Spirit Eye" is located, a spiritual eye tree that can be regarded as the highest level in the entire human world. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth is not evenly distributed, but it is denser in some places and so weak in others that even cultivators of Qigong cannot practice. In places with rich spiritual energy, as time goes by, large or small spiritual veins will be formed. Large ones may stretch for tens of thousands of miles like the Yunmeng Mountain and Tianxing Mountain, while small ones may be only a few miles in size. Once these spiritual veins are formed, they will automatically emit spiritual energy, allowing the local spiritual energy to circulate continuously. As long as they are not destroyed, they will never dry up. But the concentration of spiritual energy in different places within these spiritual veins is not the same. The places with the densest spiritual energy are the most suitable for cultivators to meditate and are called "spiritual eyes." Generally speaking, the so-called "spiritual eyes" are intangible things and can only be experienced and found by the cultivator's own feelings. Once the spiritual energy of the spiritual eye is too dense, if it can remain unchanged for a long time, and after some coincidences, it will gradually evolve into a entity, gradually gathering the pure and spiritual origin of the vitality of heaven and earth in the interface to form a spiritual eye. This is also the reason why the spiritual eye can purify the blood of a true dragon! The so-called ancient true spirits are nothing more than living beings born from the original power of a higher level interface! The original power of the interface is the fundamental reason for the birth of the spiritual eye. However, in the human world, the only thing that can extract some original power from the spiritual eye is Xuyang’s jade pendant. I think that a true adult true spirit would not even bother with the original pure energy of these trivial things. Wouldn't it be better to directly comprehend the mysterious laws of heaven? It is also possible that for the ancient true spirits, after they have truly reached adulthood, absorbing this original pure energy is as easy as eating and drinking. Moreover, Xuyang seriously suspected that the scarce vitality of the world here in the human world was inevitably influenced by Luohou, the street urchin. This thing would stay in the human world and would not leave. Xuyang did not believe that it would not absorb any vitality of the world at all. Could it be that this guy would be so kind as to deliberately avoid absorbing the vital energy of the human world and run to the gap in the interface to replenish it when he is hungry? In ancient times, the vitality of heaven and earth in the human world was still sufficient, even enough for the cultivation of Void Refinement cultivators. They could ascend to heaven only in the late stage of Spirit Transformation. After a long period of millions of years, it was also enough to give birth to one or two true spirits. But in the human world today, forget it.
Apart from Xuyang and Luohou, the only one in the human world today who can be related to the true spirit is probably the half-true spirit Ice Phoenix. Although she is not a pure-blooded celestial phoenix, judging from her spatial magical powers, she is also extraordinary. Otherwise, in the later world of the original novel, the true immortal Ma Liang would not want to take her in as a spirit pet. The reason why Xuyang attaches so much importance to this Spirit Eye Tree is that he wants to absorb the original pure energy from it, but the more important reason is that the alcohol liquid it produces is the key to the subsequent cultivation of the Xuantian Spirit Root. Xuyang clearly remembered that the alcohol liquid of the Spirit Eye Tree + the yang-rejuvenating water refined from the cold marrow and the sun's essence fire + the green liquid + the Xuantian spiritual root equaled the Xuantian fruit! As long as one has enough cultivation and essence, the Xuantian Fruit can be used for a blood sacrifice to recognize its master, and transformed into a powerful object of the Xuantian law - the Xuantian Soul-Slaying Sword! Gathering his scattered thoughts, Xuyang held the jade slip, very satisfied, stretched lazily, then curved the corners of his mouth and said to the young man with a hint of sarcasm. "Yes, it is very detailed, even including the key locations of the formation and the information of the monks on duty in the holy land! Very good!" "Okay, I'm satisfied, you can go!" "This senior hasn't helped me to remove the restriction yet." The young man's face froze and he looked at Xuyang and stammered. The woman kneeling on the ground trembled slightly but did not say anything. "As long as you don't reveal my existence to others and don't do anything to harm me, this forbidden god restriction won't be triggered. You can just pretend it doesn't exist. I'm leaving Tiannan soon, so you don't have to worry about me holding you hostage to continue doing things." Xuyang's voice turned cold and he spoke calmly. "But if I return to the sect like this, I will not be able to escape the sect's punishment!" said the young man with a changed expression. "Does what you said have anything to do with me? You can just leave the sect and become a free cultivator, and live freely. Do you think I'm running a charity?" Xuyang snorted coldly, purple light flashed in his eyes, and a huge spiritual pressure descended upon the young man. The young man had a look of horror on his face and was pinned to the ground with a thud, looking extremely embarrassed. Xuyang stomped his foot, and a red light shot up into the sky, wrapping the woman beside him, and turned into a long rainbow, disappearing in a few breaths. The young man barely raised his head, revealing a very wonderful expression, as if he wanted to cry but had no tears. (This is my first time writing about a female supporting role, dear readers, please be gentle~) Master! Ticket! Hide! Chase! Understand? (End of this chapter)
