Chaos God's Nest

"This road to immortality is formed by connecting many ancient world stars and dead stars together. There are a total of 9981 stations, big and small. Most of them are dead stars, and there are very few world stars with living beings. Taichu Star is one of the few ancient stars with living beings! But without exception, whether it is a dead star or an ancient star with living beings, it contains great opportunities! Many of the geniuses who have stepped into the road to immortality in the past have gained unimaginable fortunes from them, so they soared to the sky!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but ask: "As you said, the first half of the road to immortality is mostly based on luck?"

"No, no! To be honest, Brother Yuan, everyone's luck is not innate. Most of the so-called great luck comes from plundering others! If you see other geniuses on the road to becoming an immortal, just kill them directly. In this way, all the luck on them will belong to you! This is what is called seizing luck and competing for immortality!"

"Is it really like this?" Yan Xiaohuang was also surprised when he heard this.

"That's right! I think, when your luck is great enough, those so-called opportunities and fortune will come to you uninvited!" Wu Buzhi said with a smile.

"So that's how it is. I never thought there would be such a saying about the path to immortality!" Yan Xiaohuang said thoughtfully.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, upon hearing Yan Xiaohuang say this, Wu Buzhi laughed and said, "Haha, if Brother Yuan thinks that the road to becoming an immortal ends here, you are totally wrong!"

"Oh? What do you mean?" Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang asked.

"As I said just now, the first half of the road to immortality is mostly like this. At most, it is just a fight between the luck of the geniuses. After all, people rarely meet each other, and the occasional conquests are also a part of the very few. But Brother Yuan, you know that if the road to immortality reaches the second half, it will be completely different!"

Having said this, Wu Buzhi's face suddenly darkened and became extremely solemn.

Yan Xiaohuang's expression also became solemn. At that moment, he heard Wu Buzhi say again: "Speaking of the second half of the road to becoming an immortal, it can be said to be bumpy and difficult! Brother Yuan, do you know why?"

"This? Could it be that there is some great terror?"

"That's not the case!" Wu Buzhi shook his head, and then continued, "You need to know that the second half of the road to immortality is to cross the infinite sea to the end of the road. According to rumors, there is a gate leading to the other side at the end of the road. As for behind this gate, it contains the energy to achieve the supreme position. Even ordinary cultivators, if they can get a ray of it, can become immortals on the spot and seek hegemony for the world! Not to say that you are invincible in the nine heavens and ten earths, but you can also look down on one side and surpass the past and present!"

"what?"

Yan Xiaohuang was surprised. He didn't expect that the path to becoming an immortal would contain such a great affinity for immortality.

"In the past, the Chaos Immortal Emperor broke into the Immortal Gate at the end of the Immortal Road and obtained a ray of Chaos Dao Fruit. That's how he became the Immortal Emperor, thus becoming the only one in the universe and looking down on the nine heavens and ten earths!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was so shocked that he was speechless. But after a long time, he felt indescribable excitement in his heart, and his face was filled with infinite yearning for the mysterious immortal gate.

"Hey!"

At this moment, seeing Yan Xiaohuang's expression, Wu Buzhi also sighed, and then he slowly stood up, stood with his hands behind his back, looked out the window into the distance, and muttered to himself:

"I know the road ahead is full of glory, but you must also know how tragic it is! It's a pity that the road to poverty is the death of geniuses! Brother Yuan, if you give up now, it's not too late!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was also shocked, and then he couldn't help but look up at Wu Buzhi. He thought that the other party was telling him how dangerous the path to immortality was and advised him to give up in time.

After a long time, Yan Xiaohuang smiled slightly, then stood up and said:

"The road is rugged and the peaks are steep, the clouds are dangerous and the water is rushing; don't listen to the monkeys crying when you are on the cliff, but look ahead and don't stop. Although I know the road is difficult, I am still not afraid, because my heart is towards Kunlun; so the peaks are thousands of feet high! It also means that I am determined to conquer the world!"

Hearing Yan Xiaohuang say this, Wu Buzhi couldn't help but turn his head and look at Yan Xiaohuang again, and then his eyes couldn't help but reveal horror and deep admiration.

"What a heart that aspires to conquer the world! Brother Yuan's words really make me admire you!"

"It's just a fool's own amusement. Thank you for the compliment, Brother Wu!" Yan Xiaohuang replied with a smile.

Next, Yan Xiaohuang asked Wu Buzhi many questions about the fight for the immortal road, and the latter answered them one by one. After knowing that the immortal road teleportation array of Taichu Star was in Nanling, Yan Xiaohuang stood up and said goodbye to Wu Buzhi without saying a word.

The season on Taichu Star was chaotic. When the two were about to part, heavy snow began to fall from the sky. Looking at Yan Xiaohuang's figure getting farther and farther away in the snow, Wu Buzhi stood there for a long time and kept watching him. Only when he could no longer see his figure did he see him slowly close his eyes. It was unknown what he was thinking about.

After a long while, he slowly muttered to himself: "Under the so-called glory, there is bound to be loneliness and endless desolation! If you insist on leaving, I can't dissuade you! I just hope that in the future, you don't regret your choice today!"

......

According to what Wu Buzhi said, Yan Xiaohuang also crossed all the way to the Nanling Mountains of Taichu Star. After several days, he finally arrived at the Nanling Mountains.

Compared to the Northern Wilderness and the Central Plains, which are covered with plains, the Nanling Mountains of Taichu are mostly mountain ranges as their name suggests. Wherever Yan Xiaohuang passed, all he could see were steep mountains.

That day, Yan Xiaohuang flew along the way and finally saw a small town with people living in it. Thinking that he had been traveling for several days, he decided to rest here for a while before setting off again.

The name of this town is Sanhe Town. As the name suggests, there are three small rivers flowing through the town, hence the name.

Yan Xiaohuang entered and wanted to find an inn to rest, but he didn't expect to see the door of the inn closed in broad daylight, with a sign hanging on it saying "We are not welcome."

Seeing this, Yan Xiaohuang did not think much about it. He thought that most Hakkas had something to do today, so they did not open their shops to welcome customers. Who would have thought that after visiting four or five shops in a row, they were all like this. In addition, even ordinary people had their doors closed. This made Yan Xiaohuang feel confused.

Just as Yan Xiaohuang was thinking, he saw the door of a house in front of him slowly open a crack, and then he saw an old man in his sixties or seventies sticking his head out and looking around. After seeing Yan Xiaohuang, the old man was also surprised, and then hurriedly waved to him, saying: "Come here! Come quickly!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was also stunned for a moment, then pointed at himself and asked the other party, "Are you... talking to me?"

"Hey? Look at you kid, why are you so stupid? You are the only one on the whole street. If I don't talk to you, who else should I talk to?"

"Oh!"

After finding out that there was not even a trace of breath fluctuation in the old man's body, Yan Xiaohuang realized that the other party was just an ordinary mortal, so he did not have too many concerns and walked towards him quickly.

When Yan Xiaohuang came closer, the old man pulled Yan Xiaohuang into the house, then looked around the house again before slamming the door shut.

"You are such a bold kid! Whose family are you from? Didn't your family tell you that it's dangerous outside?"

"this..."

Yan Xiaohuang was a little puzzled, and then asked: "To be honest with you, old man, I am not a local, but a traveler from afar. I wanted to find an inn to rest for a while before continuing my journey, but I didn't expect to see that all the inns here were closed, so I wandered aimlessly on the street!"

"What? Are you an outsider?"

Hearing Yan Xiaohuang's words, the old man was also shocked. He then looked Yan Xiaohuang up and down again before continuing, "Hey kid, how dare you, a foreigner, come to Sanhe Town?"

"What do you mean, old man? Is there any danger in Sanhe Town?" Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang frowned and asked.

"Of course!" The old man nodded, and then continued, "To be honest with you, little kid, there is a Golden Spirit River in Sanhe Town. Three years ago, a river monster appeared in the river. It is very powerful and enjoys devouring the creatures here! In the past three years, countless people in the town have been killed by it!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but become interested and asked immediately, "What kind of river monster is it? How strong is it?"

"Alas! We don't know the specific situation! We only know that in the past three years, the government of Sanhe Town has invited many immortals to come and surrender to him. They were all powerful cultivators in the nearby immortal sect caves, but they were all killed by him! So he is getting more and more rampant! Just five days ago, the nearby Yunmiao Sect sent a great cultivator who claimed to be in the Heavenly Martial Realm. The man and the monster fought for a long time, but in the end the immortal was defeated and died tragically at the hands of the river monster!"

"Oh? A cultivator from the Heavenly Martial Realm?"

After hearing the old man's description, Yan Xiaohuang understood a little more clearly in his mind. He thought that the river monster should be a monster with strength around the Tianwu realm.

"No wonder I saw all the inns along the way had their doors closed. It turned out to be because of this river monster causing trouble!"

Thinking of this, Yan Xiaohuang smiled slightly and said, "To be honest with you, I am actually a cultivator. If you believe me, can you tell me the exact location of the river monster and I will help you subdue it?"

"what?"

Hearing Yan Xiaohuang's words, the old man was also shocked and said, "Little kid, you must not act arrogantly in this matter! That river monster is extremely powerful. I don't know how many people have been buried in its belly. Do you really think you can subdue it?"

"Haha, don't worry, old man. I never do anything I'm not sure of!"

"Hey! Child, listen to my advice. Let's leave this matter to the real immortals! You..."

"I've already said it, old man, you can rest assured. Leave the river monster to me!" Seeing that the other party still didn't believe it, Yan Xiaohuang said again.

"No? Kid! Are you really going to take action?" Seeing Yan Xiaohuang say it again, the old man confirmed in disbelief.

"nature!"

"Okay! In that case, I, an old man, will go with you! Anyway, my wife and children have long been killed by the mouth of the river monster. If you, little kid, can really subdue the river monster, it will be regarded as helping me to avenge my blood feud! If you can't, then I, an old man, have nothing to fear. The worst that can happen is death. You can go down with me to accompany my poor wife and children!" The old man said at that moment.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang smiled slightly, and then said: "Old man, you can rest assured! I will avenge you!"

Then, under the guidance of the old man, Yan Xiaohuang followed him all the way to the center of Sanhe Town. Here, under an ancient stone bridge, Yan Xiaohuang saw a ferry where three rivers met.

"Is this the place?" Yan Xiaohuang asked.

The latter nodded heavily, then looked into the river with a look full of hatred.

"You beast! Give me back my wife and children's lives!"

As the old man shouted in surprise, all the tightly closed doors in the surrounding area quietly opened a crack. After seeing that it was the old man, some people hurriedly shouted: "Old Li! Are you crazy! Go back quickly! The river monster will eat you!"

In response, the old man called Old Li by those people turned a deaf ear to it, still with his hands on his hips, pointing at the river and shouting curses.

In fact, Old Li had no idea whether Yan Xiaohuang could subdue the monster in the river. But when he thought of the tragic death of his wife and children, he couldn't help but get furious. Therefore, even though he knew he would die today, he still had to come here. Even if he could only curse the other party a few words, he would be satisfied.

As Old Li's curses became more and more unpleasant, a huge whirlpool began to form in the river. Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but hold his breath and concentrate on this, thinking that if the other party dared to jump out of the water, he would capture him without saying a word.

Who would have thought that after waiting for such a long time, until Old Li's mouth was almost dry from cursing, the river monster still hadn't appeared. Yan Xiaohuang frowned at this.

"What's going on? Why doesn't the other party show up?" he thought to himself.

At the same time, after seeing that Old Li had been cursing by the river for a long time and nothing happened, all the residents in the town were dumbfounded.

"That's not right? That river monster has always been brutal and bloodthirsty. If it encounters a living being, it will definitely swallow it up. And now Old Li has been cursing here for almost an hour? Why is the other party not making any movement at all?"

Thinking of this, the residents of the town bravely walked out of their homes, and then went straight to Old Li, looking curiously into the water.

At this moment, the most speechless person was Yan Xiaohuang. He just clearly felt a faint breath flowing under his feet, but for some reason, it sneaked away again. It seemed that it must have felt Yan Xiaohuang's powerful breath, so it was afraid and ran away without looking back.

"You evil beast! Where can you escape!"

In response, Yan Xiaohuang shouted angrily, then suddenly flew up and dived into the water.

Seeing this, the residents on the shore were also dumbfounded.

What's going on? Could that pretty little kid just now actually be an immortal?
