Tai sui

Wei Chengxiang was awakened by a "baji" mouth movement.

She was obviously swept up by the spiritual energy and the waves, and was pressed all the way to the bottom of the sea. When she opened her eyes, she found herself on the grass, next to a black sheep with horns bigger than her head, chewing with her head buried in it.

Wei Cheng was bored on the road when he heard the sound, and he saw it when he was flipping through the spirit beast illustration book. It seems to be one of the auspicious omens of the Three Islands of Southern Shu in the legend, the Xuanyang.

This fairy-like Xiangrui didn't eat grass, but only gnawed on flowers. He gnawed all the way to Wei Chengxiang's feet, raised his head and said to her, "Baa——"

Wei Chengxiang: "..."

Why is the sound of "Xiangrui" similar to that of braised mutton in life?

The half-immortals are not yet able to completely indica, but the Queen Mother of the West and her subordinates regard themselves as "subjugated people" and regard appetite as a crime. Those who cannot indica live by eating bigu pills. Wei Chengxiang has to follow the custom when he goes to the countryside.At this moment, facing the fat and plump sheep, she swallowed involuntarily—it was a bit greedy to be honest.

Xuanyang was docile and didn't care about her, calmly pushed her foot away with a pair of curved horns, ate a small clump of jasmine that she accidentally crushed, and burped with a scent of flowers.

Wei Chengxiang squinted his eyes as he heard the fluttering of birds' wings, and saw the red-faced and white-feathered crested ibis chasing the colorful phoenix flying past, and the sky filled with red clouds sweeping across the sky like satin.

She found herself on top of a mountain.

It's hard to say how big this place is, anyway, it's far beyond the range covered by the half-immortal consciousness. Wei Chengxiang looked far away and saw that there are eight main peaks here. The mountains surround the valley, and there is running water in the valley. After passing through the valley, I don't know where to go.The gentle ridge is covered with spirit grass that she can't name, and near the foot of the mountain are stretches of towering ancient trees, like a rainforest.

Looking to the other side, from the top of the mountain, you can vaguely see the connection between sky and water...there is the sea.

Is this sea connected to the South China Sea?

If so, shouldn't she be by the sea when she was rushed over? How could she be on the top of the mountain?

Wei Chengxiang couldn't figure it out for a moment, but he felt that the aura in the mountain was surprisingly strong, even more so than the South Mine that originally belonged to Lancang Lingshan.

"This place is like a spiritual mountain," Wei Chengxiang took out a Qingxin Pill from a mustard seed to prevent his sanity from being lost, and ate it upside down to explain the cause and effect to Xi Ping, and then she came to the only reasonable conclusion she thought, " Could it be the legendary South China Sea Secret Realm?"

Xi Ping's first reaction was that it was impossible.

If the South China Sea Secret Realm was opened, where would Lingyun Mountain still be?

Besides, so many Shengling Chanshui were staring at the South China Sea Secret Realm at the time, it is impossible that no one noticed—but he soon discovered that he could only hear Wei Cheng's voice, but could not feel her location, nor could he send his consciousness there .

"How many main peaks did you say there are?"

"Eight seats." Wei Chengxiang floated up with his sword carefully, fearing that there might be some unknown risks here. She didn't dare to float too high. She roughly described the shape of the mountains and rivers, judged the direction with the setting sun, and said, "The south is very far away from the sea. close."

The eight main peaks, the rainforest at the foot of the mountain, the south facing the sea...including the shape of the water system in the valley, the more Xi Ping listened, the more he felt that she was describing Lingyun Fairy Mountain.

However, when he looked up, he could only see devastation, and there was no "red glow" in the sky as she said - the fires in many places have not been extinguished until now, and the smoke and fire have covered the air with a choking haze.

At this moment, he heard Wei Chengxiang exclaim.

"what happened again?"

Wei Chengxiang has been wandering in chaotic places and various black markets all year round. She is cautious and cautious. When she sees the abundance of species, her first reaction is not to be indulging in the beautiful scenery, but "there must be many kinds of spirit beasts here".Wild spirit beasts are very dangerous to a half-immortal. Wei Chengxiang carefully observes the environment while reaching out to touch mustard seeds, preparing to give himself some self-defense.

She was stunned when she touched it: half of the intact mustard seeds were empty!

Wei Chengxiang was in charge of looking after the magic circle on the whale boat, and she kept the spirit stones that drive the magic circle. It was rare for her to have some white spirits and sapphires in her poor mustard.

"Bai Ling, the sapphire bigger than a fist is gone!"

Not only Bai Ling, but also many things are missing from the mustard seeds.

Xi Ping would sometimes help Lin Chi settle the accounts, who couldn't figure it out, and he would often get a few body-protection artifacts that even low-level monks could use. Apart from relatives and friends, Wei Chengxiang has a few things that are above the foundation.

But now they are all gone, including the willow leaf boat that the dragon didn't blow off her body.

"The same is true for pills. The Foundation Establishment Pill is gone along with the bottle, and there is only a little enlightenment level left..." Wei Chengxiang turned the mustard upside down, "No, isn't the Foundation Establishment Pill also of the Foundation Establishment level?"

What grade Zhuji Dan belongs to is controversial in Xuanmen. According to users, it should be called "Spiritual Aperture Grade" for half-immortals who have enlightened their minds, but the consumables for refining and the infused aura are indeed Zhuji pills. Basic level—of course, no one cares about this kind of controversy except Danxiu.

In other words, even "Xi Ping's divine consciousness", all things above the foundation cannot enter the secret realm.

Xi Ping seemed to be afraid that she would be in danger, so he gave Wei Cheng a word, and hurried over - in fact, Boss Wei had set foot on the road of no return to Mengmeng Township alone when he was fifteen or sixteen years old. After all these years, what happened to her? I haven't experienced it before, so I don't need to worry about others using too much force.Xi Ping just wanted to escape.

There are hundreds of thousands of mountains in his heart, and he urgently needs a seemingly legitimate reason to "save" him from the misery of the world, even if he is asked to run around for some trivial matter.

After he rushed back to the South China Sea, the spiritual energy and blood energy on the sea were almost gone. Xi Ping circled around the entrance to the secret realm of the South China Sea summoned by Wang Geluobao, and even risked releasing his consciousness, but he had no clue——Received by Elder Lingyun He should have checked everything after leaving the Nine Dragon Cauldron, and he wouldn't wait for him to find out if there were any abnormalities.

He frowned, and suddenly remembered Wei Chengxiang's Willow Leaf Immortal Artifact.

It was originally a thing that ascended to the spiritual rank, but after being improved and strengthened by Lin Chi, it became stronger, and it would tightly protect the people inside no matter what the situation was.If Ah Xiang entered the place where all the items above the foundation level were stripped off her body, then the willow leaf boat...or the wreckage of the boat should be the last thing that fell from her body, and it is likely to stay near the entrance.

The rank of the willow-leaf boat is too high, although low-rank monks can also use it, but the master recognized by the blood drop can only be above the Ascension Spirit.The former owner of the willow-leaf boat was Zhi Xiu, and Xi Ping gave it to him after his ascension, and there was a drop of his blood on the boat.

Xi Ping clasped an object-finding charm in the palm of his hand, followed the direction guided by the spell, and dived into the sea. After walking about a hundred miles south, his inspiration was touched, and he felt the drop of his own blood.

There were no traces of the battlefield here. Xi Ping restrained his breath, shrank in a ball of spiritual energy, and dived all the way to the bottom of the sea, and found the willow-leaf boat.

The boat was stuck in a crack on the seabed, and within a few miles, there were all kinds of familiar immortal artifacts and medicines... and high-grade spirit stones that attracted a large number of deep-sea fish.

Xi Ping took all the things away with a wave of his hand, grabbed the willow-leaf boat, and poked his consciousness down along the hull, but he couldn't go down no matter what—it was the first time he found that his consciousness was too "fat", no matter what No matter how small he cut his consciousness, it couldn't get in.

After several attempts to no avail, Xi Ping had no choice but to shout along the boat: "Ah Xiang, can you hear me!"

In the secret realm, Xuanyang was startled by a faint external sound, and raised his head vigilantly.

Wei Cheng straightened up abruptly: "Senior, did you shout something just now?"

"I may have found the entrance. Follow the sound of the zither." Xi Ping lightly tapped his fingers on the boat, and the bones of his fingers made the soft sound of the Tai Sui zither.

Wei Chengxiang: "What piano sound?"

Xi Ping snapped his fingers.

The two communicated for a few rounds, and soon discovered that everything that was stained with Xi Ping's spiritual energy—such as the sound of Tai Sui's piano, sound transmission with spiritual energy, and sound amplification—would be blocked by the narrow gap. The voice of dry shouting can be transmitted in.

Xi Ping: "..."

He could only be wrapped in the bubbles formed by the aura, took a deep breath, and began to shout at the crack with his throat.

The two monks struggled to find each other through this primitive method. Eight out of ten sentences were nonsense like "Can you still hear me?"

Xi Ping had never used his voice like this since he entered the Taoist sect, his mouth was dry and his head was ringing, and all the fish within a few miles called him and ran away.

However, strangely, the depression that was stuffed in his chest seemed to have spit out a lot.

Finally, Wei Chengxiang was led to the "entrance" - according to her, in a small lake on the top of the mountain.

It is said to be a lake, but it is actually only one or two acres of land, more like a small pond.

The water is so clear that you can see the bottom at a glance, the deepest part of the lake reaches Wei Chengxiang's chest, and the small fish and aquatic plants in the water are lively and lingering.

One corner of the willow-leaf boat was stuck in the middle of the lake, and there was a long and narrow gap at the bottom of the water where it was stuck. The edge of the narrow gap was shining with spiritual light, and there seemed to be three thousand mustard seed worlds in the gap. do not wear.

Tai Sui's voice came from the water, and it sounded a little far away: "Try to see if you can come out, I'll continue here."

Wei Cheng obeyed, first tentatively stretched out his hand through the narrow slit.

As soon as her hand touched the slit, it seemed to melt into it. Wei Chengxiang instinctively curled his fingers to feel the position of the hand, and felt a slender, cold and slightly callused hand holding her.

Tai Sui: "I saw you, I will pull you out, let me know if you have any questions."

After speaking, he dragged her out.

Wei Chengxiang has never eaten a few full meals since he was a child, and he has never grown meat in his life. Unexpectedly, he has tasted "too fat and stuck" in his life.

She only felt that the whole person seemed to be squeezed into an ill-fitting dress, and her flesh and blood had been strangled, and she seemed to have been squashed and stretched for a while.

Just when she couldn't bear it anymore and was about to call out, the salty smell of sea water came, and then, a ball of spiritual energy enveloped her, Wei Chengxiang took a deep breath, and felt her crushed body bulge back again.

"too……"

Then she saw the person who came - it was a blood-stained man with an unusually flamboyant face that could catch people's eyes at a glance, but there was an indescribable tiredness in his brows and eyes. I don't know whether it is the god who entered the face by mistake, or the face is the wrong god.

Wei Cheng was out of breath and said, "Senior, senior, you made your spiritual mask a little hastily this time, it's not natural."

It was only then that Xi Ping remembered that he forgot to wear the spirit mask: "Why?"

"It's a bit strange," Wei Chengxiang said casually, "I don't think it suits you well."

A face that looks like a horse, put on Tai Sui's body... Tsk.

She thought a little sadly: like a married woman who has just hooked up with the whole Danguifang, gave a green hat to the princes and nobles one by one, and was chased all the way from Dawan to Nanhai. Looks familiar, where did you meet him?

This thought only flashed, but Wei Chengxiang didn't think about it carefully: she has met too many people, and they all look alike if they look upright.

Tai Sui was stunned for a while when he heard the words, and smiled wryly: "Don't look at it if you don't like it—don't observe me, just look at what's going on with this seam."

The two soon discovered that ordinary people's things could easily pass through that gap, while those of the enlightened level were slightly stagnant, and could be stuffed in with force.

But anything above Foundation Establishment, even a small Foundation Establishment Pill, don't even think about passing through.

Xi Ping tried to widen the gap, but it didn't move at all.

Without Wang Geluobao's Dao Heart inherited from Tianbo's ancestor, this secret realm is in a closed state, and it is impossible for him, an outsider, to open it.

Xi Ping reckoned that even if Wang Geluobao could be captured for bloodletting, without the aura blessing of the Nine Dragon Cauldron, he would not be able to make a hole in it with his mere cultivation level of Shengling Cicada--those evil spirits We all know that to open the South China Sea Secret Realm, at least one cicada slough must be sacrificed here.

"Wait a minute." Xi Ping thought for a while, separated a wisp of divine consciousness, flew back to the magic-breaking space in Tao County, and found a degraded fairy artifact in a pile of sundries—this thing was a mortal artifact. Click on the "camera" that explodes as a prototype. After improvement with Lingshi and a small magic circle, it can take very clear pictures, and the pictures will be produced on the spot, without waiting—it's just that the source of customers is too limited, so take pictures. The characters are too realistic, and everyone feels like they have been taken from the soul, which is very scary, and this thing has become a slow seller.

The Immortal Artifact of Degradation could just fit into the gap, and in less than an hour and three quarters, Wei Chengxiang, who was crushed again, brought out a dozen clear photos from the gap.

Xi Ping only glanced at it, and his heart suddenly beat wildly.

The secret realm in that gap is exactly the same as Lingyun Xianshan, as if it is a projection in a mirror.

It's just that there are no people, no smoky disputes between Xiuyi and Mia, no bloody and bloody artifacts for suppressing mountains, no fairy palaces and inscription circles that prohibit entry... It has its own set of mountains, rivers, sun and moon, clear and quiet, maybe it is The appearance of Lingshan at the beginning.

After this catastrophe in Lingyun Mountain, at least half of the spiritual energy in the mountain was gone, and Xi Ping now knew where the half of the spiritual energy went.

It's not that they are scattered between the heaven and the earth, but they are all taken into a place where all those who carry the "true essence" and walk on the fixed path of immortality cannot enter.

The two looked at each other.

Maybe it was because of being pinched back and forth, Wei Cheng's voice suddenly became a little dry: "Tai Sui, what... what does this mean?"

Before Xi Ping could answer, Zhao Xidan's voice suddenly came from Reincarnation Wood.

Her voice was a little heavy, but her voice was not erratic.

"Senior," she said, "I asked you a lot of questions just now, but you didn't answer any of them. I guess I'll let me choose."

Zhao Yudan glanced at Li Manlong not far away who was comforting the clansmen one by one, his teeth clenched slightly: "Thank you for saving me and instructing me, and for bringing me to Shu to experience my Taoism—but... I decided not to build a foundation."

Reincarnation Muli still didn't answer, but when she said a word, her expression became more and more stable, and she said to herself: "We knew on the day we started, only with Dao Xin can hold the Lingtai when building the foundation, so that the spirit will not disperse; Dao Xin is well polished. Only then can the vitality be reflected in the cracks of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, and ascend to the Lingyun... From this point of view, the Dao Heart seems to be a footstep leading to the sky.

"Now I have Dao Xin, but Dao Xin is incompatible with Xuanmen. I can use Dao Xin as 'Dao Xin', eat the Foundation Building Pill, and deceive myself and misinterpret it on the 'right way'. Shit luck can also be mixed into great power. But...Senior, it may be that my cultivation base is low and my knowledge is shallow, I don’t think Dao Xin is used like this.”

Tai Sui finally answered her words, very lightly, his voice seemed hoarse: "If you don't build a foundation, what will happen next?"

"Follow my Taoist heart." Zhao Xiaodan said, "When the 200-year lifespan is up, I will die at the age of [-]; if I encounter natural and man-made disasters tomorrow, I will die tomorrow. A fork in the road, I also..."

Tai Sui suddenly laughed out loud.

Zhao Xidan didn't know him very well. For some reason, this senior Tai Sui was more concise and concise when talking to her than others, and would deliberately suppress his voice, as if he was afraid of making a sound.

It was the first time she heard him laugh like this, and she couldn't help but froze for a moment.

"You are not the wrong way, I am the wrong way." Tai Sui smiled, "It's a pity that I can't turn back, so I have to wait at the entrance to see you off, come—"
