Godly Dragon Guard

Ning Rufeng smiled and took out a golden rag from the storage ring. He sat on the ground, spread the rag and showed it to Shen Lang.

"This is?"

Shen Lang frowned and saw that the rag was divided into two sides, both with a golden light.

Various terrains are marked on the front, like some kind of treasure map.

On the back is a vague ancient painting.

"This treasure map was taken off by me from the armor of the Yellow Wind Demon King! I don't know what kind of material it is made of. It actually contains some space energy and cannot be stored in the storage ring, so it was used by the Yellow Wind Demon King. The Wind Demon King carries it with him."

"I thought this thing was interesting, so I took it away privately. I studied it a bit and found out some tricks. Boy Shen Lang, first take a look at the ancient painting on the back of this treasure map." Ning Rufeng said mysteriously said.

Hearing this, Shen Lang looked carefully at the back of the treasure map.

The ancient painting on the back is very blurry, and it can be vaguely seen that there are a lot of auspicious clouds in the painting. There seems to be a spiritual pool among the auspicious clouds. The water in the pool is colorful, and there seem to be seven fairies beside the pool playing drums and playing sheng, which is extremely magical.

"Where is the spiritual pool in this painting?"

Shen Lang was quite surprised. He felt that the spiritual pool in the painting was ethereal and mysterious. It should be an extremely high-end place.

Ning Rufeng chuckled and said, "You must have asked the right question. I have been studying it for a long time and guessed that the spiritual pool in the painting should be the Yaochi, the former residence of the Queen Mother of the West."

"What! Is Yaochi in the painting?"

Shen Lang was shocked.

Although he didn't know much about the history of the True Immortal Realm, he still knew what the Queen Mother of the West and Yaochi said.

Although the Queen Mother of the West is known as the "Queen Mother", she was not originally the wife of Emperor Haotian, but the wife of the "Emperor Donghua" and the daughter of "Taiyi the Eastern Emperor".

Legend has it that in the ancient Lich Era, when there was no division of the Immortal Realm, the Eastern Emperor established the first generation of Heavenly Palace in the Great Sun Palace at the top of Kunxu. He was enthroned as the Heavenly Emperor alongside his brother Dijun, and called himself Eastern Emperor Taiyi, ruling the entire world. Fairyland!

At that time, Emperor Donghuang had a son and a daughter. The son was the Emperor of Donghua, and the daughter was the Saint of Xiling. They later became husband and wife.

After the Lich Catastrophe, the earth collapsed and was divided into ten, becoming the ten immortal realms in later generations.

The first generation of Heaven was also destroyed, the Emperor Donghua disappeared, and the soul of the Holy Goddess Xiling was almost destroyed. She dragged her half-dead soul to the Tianmu Fairyland, and slept at the bottom of the Tianshan Mountains for half an era, until the seal She only regained consciousness at the end of the War of Gods. She later called herself "Queen Mother of the West" and remarried Emperor Haotian.

Back to the topic, the residence of Queen Mother of the West is "Yaochi".

"I checked ancient books and found some sayings about Yaochi. It is said that the water of Yaochi is colorful, which is consistent with what is depicted in this painting. As for the seven fairies in the painting, they are most likely the seven daughters of the Queen Mother of the West, Pleiades. Seven stars!" Ning Rufeng expressed his guess.

Shen Lang raised his eyebrows: "So, does this treasure map record the route to Yaochi?"

"I have also suspected this possibility, but I have not researched the reason. It is said that Yaochi is on the top of Tianshan Mountain, bordering Tianting in the east. Since the World Destruction War, Tianting and Tianshan have long disappeared, as if they have evaporated from the world. , countless powerful people in later generations have searched for him through many twists and turns, but in the end they have failed."

Ning Rufeng sighed and continued: "Since this treasure map can be carried by the Yellow Wind Demon King, it must have some credibility. As for some of the complicated routes depicted on the treasure map, they may be some key clues. I have no longevity. I don’t want to bother with these things, so I will simply give this thing to you and see if your kid can find Yaochi in the future.”

After saying that, Ning Rufeng threw the treasure map to Shen Lang.

Shen Lang took the treasure map and said gratefully: "Thank you, Master."

It is said that the water of Yaochi is known as "holy water". If a monk can bathe in Yaochi once, he will get huge benefits.

If I have clues in the future, I can try to find the legendary Yaochi.

"Boy Shen Lang, what did you mean by the two-hundred-year period you told Jin Zhanyuan before?" Ning Rufeng asked curiously.

"This junior has a skill that needs to be practiced as soon as possible, and considering that the environment of the Ancient Artifact Sect is relatively comfortable, a two-hundred-year time limit was proposed." Shen Lang explained.

"I see, then you can stay at the Ancient Artifact Gate with peace of mind. I will give orders and don't let anyone disturb your practice."

Ning Rufeng nodded without going into details.

Shen Lang expressed his gratitude again.

"You don't have to be so polite in front of me. I don't have any other ideas. I just hope that you will be successful in the future and be able to bring some ancient artifacts." Ning Rufeng let out a long sigh.

"The Ancient Artifact Sect has treated me well, and I will definitely repay my kindness in the future!"

Shen Lang said solemnly.

"Okay, if you have this intention, I will feel at ease." Ning Rufeng smiled and nodded.

After chatting for a while, Shen Lang left the Ancient Artifact Sect Hall.

He first went to Xia Shan'er's residence in Houshan.

I saw Xia Shan'er erected a small tombstone beside the rock outside her residence, with the words "Tomb of Mentor Nangong Mo" engraved on it. Under the tombstone were Nangong Mo's belongings.

Xia Shan'er knelt quietly in front of the tombstone. Shen Lang did not disturb her, feeling quite emotional in her heart.

Poor Nangong Mo, no one mentioned him after his death. Only a disciple like Xia Shan'er still remembered his old kindness.

Shen Lang originally wanted to ask Nangong Mo about Xia Shan'er's life experience, but now that Nangong Mo is dead, Xia Shan'er's life experience has become an unsolved mystery.

"Senior brother, I made you laugh." Seeing Shen Lang coming, Xia Shan'er immediately wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with an embarrassed expression.

Shen Lang shook his head and comforted her with a few words.

Xia Shan'er didn't feel too sad, she quickly cheered up and asked softly: "Senior brother, are your matters over?"

Shen Lang nodded slightly: "It's all over. Within two hundred years, I will practice in Guangtian Palace. Shan'er, what are your plans?"

Xia Shan'er stood up and came to Shen Lang, hugged Shen Lang gently, buried her head in his arms, and said with infinite tenderness in her shyness: "Shan'er just wants to be with you."

"Well!"

Shen Lang grinned, practicing in seclusion for a long time was very boring, and he also hoped that Xia Shan'er could stay with him.

The two are already Taoist couples, so they don't need to avoid suspicion and can live together directly.

Previously, Ning Rufeng arranged a new cave for Shen Lang. It was located on a relatively remote peak at the back of Cangluan Mountain. The environment was extremely quiet.

Shen Lang took Xia Shan'er to the cave, placed several concealment restrictions, and then entered the Guangtian Palace.

Guangtian Palace is an extremely large space, and the two of them did not have any mental constraints. They could not help but be intimate for a while, and only after enjoying the pleasure, they gave up.

Shen Lang told Xia Shan'er his cultivation plan. He decided to wait until he had thoroughly studied the first half of the second layer of the Nine-turn Taoist Sutra before he began to carve the new Nine-turn Dharma Seal. However, during the process of carving the Dharma Seal, he could not be subjected to any influence. disturb.

Xia Shan'er nodded in understanding and offered to protect Shen Lang.
