Taichu Yandao: Starting from the Villain

"Not good!" On the yellow sand, Zhao Rui's face suddenly changed, and he turned around and ran away.

The moment he stopped, the magic power in his body decreased by 10%.

He ran all the way, as fast as he could.

One day later, deep in the Gobi Desert.

Zhao Rui stepped on the flying sword and fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

Yellow sand flew everywhere, and Zhao Rui rolled for more than ten steps before he could steady himself. He wanted to pick up the flying sword, but when he stretched out his hand, he grimaced in pain.

It took him a while to recover. Looking at the endless Gobi Desert, his mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts.

The sky in the yellow sand is too similar to the scene when I saw the sea monster ninety years ago. Could they be connected?

Master said that the water in the sea might be the Yellow Spring, so what is in the desert?

With a long sigh, Zhao Rui withdrew his gaze. The answer to all this might only be given by someone returning to the Tianqing Sect.

Two days later, Zhao Rui returned to the giant tree. He took a deep breath and felt the spiritual energy everywhere.

Although the spiritual energy at this time is much thinner than when I was a child, it is a million times better than in the desert.

Seven days later, in front of Lu Xuan’s tombstone.

Zhao Rui bowed deeply and said, "Master, this may be the last time I come to see you."

After a long time, Lu Xuan glanced at the familiar environment again, then flew into the sky on his sword.

Lu Xuan did not explain clearly where the Tianqing Sect was, but only told him that it was on the main continent.

As for where the main continent is, Zhao Rui remembered that Lu Xuan said that one could see it by going west and flying across the vast ocean.

"Then let's go back to Yan State first!"

Zhao Rui followed his childhood memories and rushed into the sea.

Ninety years have passed. At this time, the State of Yan is extremely prosperous. It has not only annexed the State of Giant Wood, but has also invaded the so-called wilderness. Countless mortals are gradually reclaiming the land.

The main reason why Yan State was able to unify the entire island was that it produced a national teacher who shocked the world, Taiyi Zhenxian.

In the capital of Yan State, the former imperial palace was transformed into the Taiyi Holy Palace, and the emperor moved to another place to rebuild his palace.

All the civil and military officials in the court had to pay homage to the emperor, and whenever the emperor encountered an important event, he had to go to the Taiyi Holy Palace to ask for the decree of the Qianyuan Daohao Taiyi Zhenxian.

On this day, just as the emperor had finished asking for the imperial edict, a female official in green Taoist robes said in the Yongshou Hall of the Taiyi Holy Palace: "If you have something to report, please come. If not, please leave."

Below her was a middle-aged man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. He was the emperor of Yan State.

Further down, there were eight people standing side by side in pairs. Four of them were wearing dragon robes and were ranked as kings, while the other four were wearing yellow Taoist robes.

One of the four men in Taoist robes stepped out and said, "Report to the Immortal, while searching for spiritual medicine recently, I met a beautiful woman with a peach blossom body. She has a dignified appearance and an extraordinary body."

"I have been out looking for medicine for many years and cannot serve Master all the time. I feel guilty. I request that this girl serve Master on my behalf. This way, I can feel more at ease while I am looking for medicine."

From the moment the Taoist mentioned the word "beautiful woman", the female official in green frowned slightly, looking unhappy, muttering in her heart: "What kind of peach blossom Taoist body is it? Can it be as pretty as me? You have sent so many women, how many of them can stand firm in the palace?"

After waiting for the other party to finish speaking, the female official in green glanced at the Taoist in yellow and said, "I understand. Send it to the Holy Palace! The True Immortal knows your intentions."

"The immortal is permanent, but the female officials are transient. Let's see how long your arrogance will last!" The Taoist in yellow lowered his eyebrows and retreated into the crowd.

After the request was made, the prince in a python robe stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have found a piece of 5,000-year-old jade in a snowy mountain in my fiefdom. It is huge..."

"Send it to the palace as soon as possible. Mingde, go to the King of Qi's fiefdom to cooperate, nothing can go wrong with this thing." A voice behind the pearl curtain interrupted.

In recent years, there are not many things that can attract the attention of the True Immortals, and everyone present has already exhausted all means of flattery.

At this moment, seeing the Immortal suddenly speaking, everyone pricked up their ears and paid close attention to the key point - Han Yu!

Among the eight people, the Taoist priest with gray hair standing in the front heard these two words and immediately fell into memories:

Decades ago, the True Immortal issued an order to mobilize the whole world to search for them, and finally all of them were transported to the Holy Palace.

Later, the Immortal did not mention it again, so he did not take it to heart. However, this time, the people from the imperial court showed up.

Behind the Taoist with gray hair, a Taoist called Mingde hurriedly stepped out and said, "I will follow the command of my master, the Immortal Qianyuan Daohao Taiyi. Even if I have to go through fire and water, or die in pieces, I will definitely bring back the things that my master has entrusted me with."

After Mingde finished speaking, he took small steps back into the crowd, thinking about leaving immediately after the meeting.

"Why don't you go?" the person behind the bead curtain urged.

"Disciple will set off now." Mingde's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly stepped out of the line, backing away.

He remembered that the last time the True Immortal spoke in this tone, many people died in the State of Yan.

At the same time, the Emperor of Yan State, who was sitting on the dragon throne, looked at the King of Qi who was wearing a dragon robe, and used his eyes to signal:

"You go with me!"

"Are you out of your mind?"

"Why the hell don't you leave?"

The Emperor made a series of gestures and expressions, which finally made the King of Qi react and he turned around and retreated quickly.

As soon as he left the palace, he immediately shouted, "Master Mingde, Master Mingde, wait for me..."

As soon as the two men left, the monthly court meeting in the Holy Palace was basically over. Seeing that no one came forward, the female official in green turned around and retreated into the pearl curtain.

Inside the pearl curtain, there is a large chair with carvings of dragons and paintings of phoenixes. Normally, a true immortal would sit here, but today, no one was sitting on that chair.

Behind the big chair, through two layers of screens, there was a soft couch with a person lying on it, eating grapes handed to him by the female official.

The man had a head full of white hair and looked middle-aged, but there were wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

Seeing the blue-clothed female official coming back, the man immediately waved his hand, motioning the blue-clothed female official to come over.

The female official in green walked lightly to the soft couch, sat down, stretched out a pair of delicate fists, and personally massaged the legs of the white-haired man.

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, the blue-robed female official lowered her head with her proud figure facing the white-haired man.

The white-haired man was quickly attracted and his eyes became restless.

The female official in blue was overjoyed, and her small fist that was pounding her leg moved slowly, higher and higher.

However, at this moment, the man with white hair suddenly said coldly: "Okay, you can leave!"

Everything came to an abrupt stop. The female official in blue had a look of resentment on her face, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water over her head.

However, although there was resentment in her eyes, she did not dare to say a word of objection and immediately stepped aside.

She had followed the True Immortal for more than ten years and had been teased countless times, but it was always like this every time, and then... nothing happened.

I heard from the old men in the Holy Palace that if one could practice dual cultivation with a true immortal, it seemed that one would be able to gain immense benefits and break through some important barriers.

The female official in green was quite talented. She had cultivated to the fourth level of Qi Refining in the ten years since she entered the palace. However, she had indeed encountered a bottleneck in her cultivation recently. Every time she tried to break through to the fifth level, she was just a little short.

In this vast world, there are only four people who have cultivated to the fifth level of Qi training. They are the four Taoists in yellow who had just attended the meeting in the Holy Palace. They have never changed in all these years, as if they were restricted by some force.

All the skills come from the true immortals. If you want to break through, you have to seek help from the true immortals.

The blue-robed female official bit her lips tightly as she thought about it, her expression becoming even more humble.

At this time, the white-haired man stood up from the couch, walked out of the council hall, and walked to the back of the Holy Palace alone without anyone by his side.

The further we walked, the fewer guards there were, and when we reached the back, there were no guards at all.

Soon, the man with white hair came to a courtyard. There were four big characters written on the lintel: Qingxin Courtyard.

The white-haired man waved his sleeves, opened the gate, looked around, and walked into the yard after making sure that there was no one there.

After the white-haired man went in, there was complete silence in front of the courtyard gate, not even the fluttering of an insect.

After a while, the silence was broken by the sound of footsteps, and a female official in blue tiptoed to the gate of the courtyard.

She had a focused look on her face, always keeping an eye on her surroundings. She had several talismans stuck on her body, all of which had the function of concealing breath, making one invisible, etc.

She arrived at the gate of the courtyard and looked around, but did not go in directly. Instead, she took out a talisman to break the ban from her sleeve.

A golden light flashed, and the talisman flew straight towards the gate of the courtyard.

When it was about three steps away from the courtyard gate, the talisman suddenly shook, as if it had encountered an obstacle that was difficult to break through.

The shaking became more and more intense, and the originally empty place gradually began to ripple, as if the calm surface of a lake was suddenly blown by a strong wind.

However, after the ripples appeared, there was no further change, and the formation could not be broken.

"Oh no!" The blue-robed female official's forehead was covered with sweat, and she couldn't help but groan in her heart.

Her original intention for this trip was to hide in the dark. The True Immortal had just entered, so his vigilance would definitely be greatly reduced. As long as she broke the restriction quickly enough, the other party might not be able to discover it.

But the situation didn't seem to be as he expected, and he was on the verge of failure.

The blue-clothed female official's hair stood on end, and her first thought was to escape quickly. As long as she was not caught, she might have a chance of survival.

However, just as she was about to act, the talisman suddenly emitted a golden light and directly broke a large hole in the restriction.

"Oh, it seems that God is helping me!" The green-clothed female official's heart was pounding, and she dodged into the gap.

After the female official in green entered, the formation began to close quickly, and before long, only the size of a plate remained.

However, at this moment, a flying sword fell from the sky and stopped in the middle of the gap.
