Seeking Immortality

"Yeah, it's been a long time, but I don't know, how long have I been locked up here?"

Bai Qingfu smiled faintly and asked softly. Although his words were soft, the sadness of the vicissitudes of life could not be concealed no matter what.

"More than a hundred years ago."

Xu Qingfan replied.

"Only more than a hundred years." Bai Qingfu said with surprise. "I thought it had been a long time."

Xu Qingfan suddenly smiled slightly and said, "More than a hundred years has been a long time."

Bai Qingfu also smiled slightly. After this conversation, he had completely adapted to the light emitted by the phoenix spirit fire on Xu Qingfan's head. At this moment, he looked straight at Xu Qingfan. After a long time, he suddenly asked: "You are here this time." I guess you didn’t come here just because you thought I stayed here too long, so you made a special trip to chat with me, right?”

Xu Qingfan sighed and said, "No."

"You want to let me out?"

Bai Qingfu seemed to have thought of something and asked with a smile.

"It depends on how you choose, Senior Brother Bai."

When Xu Qingfan faced Bai Qingfu, he just said something and did not take the initiative to control the conversation. He believed that with Bai Qingfu's intelligence, the conversation between the two did not require such a waste of effort.

Sure enough, Bai Qingfu quickly guessed the reason and asked, "Is it because of Zhang Xusheng?"

Xu Qingfan nodded and said, "We want to know more detailed information about him."

Originally, Xu Qingfan thought that Bai Qingfu would think about it before answering, but unexpectedly, after receiving Xu Qingfan's affirmative answer, Bai Qingfu directly answered without thinking: "I see, after calculating the time, that Zhang Xusheng It’s really time to take action against Jiuhua. But I’ve stayed here long enough, but I can’t agree to your conditions.”

As he spoke, Bai Qingfu let out a faint sigh.

Hearing Bai Qingfu's rejection, Dongfang Qingling, who had been standing silently behind Xu Qingfan, couldn't help but be startled. Asked: "Why?"

Upon hearing Dongfang Qingling's question, Bai Qingfu first nodded to Dongfang Qingling and said hello: "Junior Sister Dongfang, long time no see."

Although the person in front of him was a traitor from Jiuhua and a spy of Zhang Xusheng, looking at Bai Qingfu's appearance at this moment, Dongfang Qingling could not feel bad feelings at all. He reluctantly nodded and said, "Long time no see."

After greeting Dongfang Qingling, Bai Qingfu slowly explained his unwillingness to cooperate with Xu Qingfan and the others.

"There are three reasons why I can't tell you about Zhang Xusheng."

"First of all, I told you. I grew up in an extremely dark cave. During this period, my body was only modified by Zhang Xusheng, but I never left it, let alone saw the appearance outside the cave. Later, I was brought here directly by Zhang Xusheng, so I don’t know much more than you do. Even if I want to tell you, there is nothing to say. “Secondly, although Zhang Xusheng gave up on me ruthlessly. But he is my former master after all. Without him, I would have turned into a withered skeleton. Now, I have been detained here for hundreds of years for him. I also worked undercover for him in Jiuhua before, which can be regarded as repaying his kindness to me, but even so. I still don’t want to have anything to do with him anymore, and I don’t want to join you in attacking or hurting him. "

At this point, Bai Qingfu paused, stared at Xu Qingfan, and said with a sigh: "Come on three times. The most important thing is that even if you really know something, you can't hurt Zhang Xusheng at all. , Zhang Xusheng, he is impossible to defeat. Although I am detained here, at least I am still alive."

After hearing Bai Qingfu's explanation, Xu Qingfan was slightly silent. It was obvious that after more than a hundred years of detention, Bai Qingfu was still very sane. But he also lost the motivation to change everything in front of him. I have the idea in my heart that I can live my whole life just like this.

Just like that, both sides fell silent.

Just when Bai Qingfu thought Xu Qingfan would turn around and leave. Xu Qingfan suddenly spoke.

"Senior Brother Bai, you have been detained for too long. The current world of immortality, and even the vast land of China, is completely different from before you were detained."

Bai Qingfu's eyes showed a look of thinking. After a moment, he suddenly realized and asked: "Has the ninth catastrophe finally begun? Is it caused by Zhang Xusheng?"

Xu Qingfan replied: "The catastrophe was not caused by Zhang Xusheng, but the harm caused by Zhang Xusheng was greater than the catastrophe, and the catastrophe was not as simple as we thought before."

After a pause, Xu Qingfan continued: "I said just now that we want to know the news about Zhang Xusheng, but by "we" I do not mean Junior Sister Dongfang and I, nor the Jiuhua sect, but the entire righteous path. "

Then, Xu Qingfan told Bai Qingfu what had happened in the world of immortality and even in the entire land of China after Bai Qingfu was detained in the past few years, even including the ultimate goal of the "Ming" organization, which was to snatch the "four" with Zhang Xusheng. "Lingtian Map" matters, you must know that even most of the monks in the Righteous Alliance do not understand these things.

Hearing Xu Qingfan's words, even Bai Qingfu's eyes were full of horror. He obviously did not expect that the situation was so serious, and that the entire human race was in danger of destruction.

"That's the thing. The Shura clan may come back at any time. We must stop it. But if we want to prevent the Shura clan from coming back, we must first find the base camp of the underworld organization and take back the Four Spirits Heaven Map from Zhang Xusheng. Otherwise, even if After finding the headquarters and leader of the Underworld, there is no way to prevent the Shura clan from coming back. Time is running out for the entire human race. Once Zhang Xusheng is found, not only can the Four Spirits Heaven Map be taken back, but the location of the headquarters of the Underworld can also be known. , all the problems can be solved." Xu Qingfan talked about the seriousness and importance of the matter, while Bai Qingfu remained silent, his eyes flashing, obviously thinking about how to resolve it.

Xu Qingfan knew that Bai Qingfu longed for sunshine by nature. He didn't like hiding in the darkness and plotting against others. He longed to be a righteous person recognized by the world, free and unrestrained, it was just his destiny. It was Zhang Xusheng who brought him into the world of immortality...

With Bai Qingfu's character, he would never just watch the entire human race be destroyed.

Seeing that Bai Qingfu seemed to have some thoughts, Xu Qingfan added: "Senior Brother Bai, there are fourteen grandmasters in the Righteous Alliance at the moment, and they are going to deal with Zhang Xusheng. It is definitely not a problem. You don't have to worry about the problems after failure. The Righteous Alliance is totally fine. I can protect you. Also, once you help the Righteous Alliance at this time, the entire Righteous Alliance, and even all human beings will recognize it. At that time, everyone in the world will owe you a favor, and not only will no one be held accountable for your previous affairs, but you It will also be recognized by people all over the world.”

Hearing what Xu Qingfan said, Bai Qingfu remained silent, but his eyes no longer flickered. Xu Qingfan knew that Bai Qingfu had already made a decision in his heart.

really. After being silent for a long time, Bai Qingfu said: "I really don't know much, and I don't know if I can help you. Should I tell you what I know? Or should I go to the Righteous Alliance to talk about it?"

Hearing what Bai Qingfu said, Xu Qingfan let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "You have to tell us, but you also have to go to Ronghua Mountain with us. The masters who want to come to the Righteous Alliance will definitely come after hearing the news. Yes. I’ll ask you personally, don’t worry, no one will treat you as an evil monk there anymore, you are still my disciple of Jiuhua, even an elder.”

Sometimes. It was not enough to describe a bright future, so Xu Qingfan also addressed Bai Qingfu's future status.

Just now, when Xu Qingfan described the situation in the world of immortality in recent years, he more or less revealed his current status in the Righteous Alliance and Jiuhua. Although he did not say it explicitly, Bai Qingfu more or less guessed it. What's more, Xu Qingfan The cultivation level at this time is no longer under the control of the head of Jiuhua and the Supreme Protector when Bai Qingfu was detained.

"Then let's go. Listening to what you said, we don't have much time."

Bai Qingfu finally felt relieved. He stood up and said.

I heard Bai Qingfu say the word "we". Xu Qingfan was relieved, knowing that Bai Qingfu had finally entrusted his fate to him.

that's all. Xu Qingfan took Dongfang Qingling and Bai Qingfu out of "Judi Cliff". Along the way, Xu Qingfan answered Bai Qingfu's questions in detail, Xu Qingfan's experiences over the years, and the catastrophes in the world of immortality over the years. Various details, as well as the strength of the Righteous Alliance, etc.

When the three of them arrived outside "Judi Cliff", Bai Qingfu had already begun to tell Xu Qingfan what he knew.

As Bai Qingfu said, he didn't know much. Zhang Xusheng was really impeccable in his work, and even his own people didn't know much about him.

But Xu Qingfan still felt that he had gained a lot. Through questioning, Xu Qingfan learned about the size of the place where he was when he was transformed, the geothermal conditions, the rock structure, and even the plants and flowers growing among the rocks.

Based on these circumstances, although Xu Qingfan still could not deduce the specific location of Zhang Xusheng, he was able to greatly reduce the range of Zhang Xusheng's location to only a few specific locations. When the Righteous Alliance monks search in the future , will undoubtedly get twice the result with half the effort.

While they were talking, the three of them had already arrived outside the "Judi Cliff". Bai Qingfu turned around and silently looked at the place where he had been detained for nearly two hundred years. He sighed slightly, but said nothing more and followed Xu Qingfan silently away. Went.

Xu Qingfan knew what Bai Qingfu was thinking. In addition to lamenting that he finally saw the light of day, it was also because he had a brother who was imprisoned in the "Judi Cliff" and still had not seen the light of day. The reason why he finally chose to cooperate with Xu Qingfan was, It might be that he had the intention of interceding for his brother after performing a meritorious service.

After sighing slightly, Bai Qingfu followed Xu Qingfan and flew towards the front mountain of Jiuhua. Seeing that Jiuhua was deserted and not crowded at all, Bai Qingfu couldn't help but feel like Xu Qingfan and Dongfang Qingling when they first returned to Jiuhua. There was also a sigh.

However, at this time, Bai Qingfu was a traitor to Jiuhua after all. Xu Qingfan could not trust him as much as Dongfang Qingling, so after coming to Jiuhua Qianshan, he sealed his six senses and took him to Jiuhua. On the top of Huashan Mountain, we left Jiuhua again through the secret passage.

"Junior Brother Xu, won't you come back to the Righteous Alliance with us?"

After arriving outside Jiuhua, Xu Qingfan told Bai Qingfu his plan, and Bai Qingfu asked in surprise.

Although Xu Qingfan had recorded his plan on a green slip to bring Dongfang Qingling to the Righteous Alliance, Xu Qingfan's recommendation was not there, and Bai Qingfu was somewhat uneasy. After all, after nearly two hundred years, Bai Qingfu faced . It's a completely different world.

Xu Qingfan comforted and said: "Senior brother Bai, don't worry, I am basically managing Jiuhua at this time. I have explained the matter in detail in the green slips. After the master uncle sees it, he will make arrangements for himself and will never do anything to him." You are biased."

I heard Xu Qingfan say this. The uneasiness in Bai Qingfu's heart did not ease much, but he did not force Xu Qingfan. After all, some things had to be faced sooner or later, so he nodded in agreement.

After the discussion was completed, Xu Qingfan said goodbye to Dongfang Qingling and Bai Qingfu. Let Dongfang Qingling take Bai Qingfu to fly towards the Righteous Alliance, while he flew alone towards the bloody valley that he remembered deeply.

Watching Xu Qingfan's figure gradually disappearing at the junction of heaven and earth, Dongfang Qingling's eyes flashed with worry. Maybe too many things happened in the southern wasteland, so watching Xu Qingfan go away alone, there was always an inexplicable worry in his heart. .

Seeing Dongfang Qingling's worried look, Bai Qingfu seemed to see something. He smiled and said with relief: "Junior Sister Dongfang, don't worry. With Junior Brother Xu's cultivation at this time, except for those grandmasters, no one in the entire world of immortal cultivation can do anything to defeat him. What's more, even if we follow Junior Brother Xu, , and can’t help him with anything.”

Dongfang Qingling sighed silently, Bai Qingfu had been detained for more than a hundred years after all. I don't know much about the current situation in the world of immortality. Today's world of immortality is in troubled times, and masters are emerging in large numbers. It is no longer the era when the masters of the golden elixir stage can freely dominate the world of immortality.

But at this time, Xu Qingfan had just left, and Dongfang Qingling had no interest in explaining. He just said to Bai Qingfu: "Then, Senior Brother Bai, let's go to the Righteous Alliance as soon as possible."

"OK."

While talking, the two of them lifted up the auspicious clouds and flew quickly in the direction of "Ronghua Mountain".

But when Xu Qingfan flew towards the Blood Valley, Zhang Xusheng finally completed his research.

I saw that deep in the southern wasteland, where Xu Qingfan fought with the demon before, Zhong Ling, who had turned into a demon, was still unconscious. His dissected body was not intact, but it had gradually healed.

"I see."

Zhang Xusheng smiled and nodded. But he finally found out the reason why Zhong Lingyi turned into a demon. Xu Qingfan knew that it was resentment that caused the death energy to change, and that was why Zhong Ling was transformed into this. Zhang Xusheng is naturally not unclear, but Zhang Xusheng's research is more in-depth, such as the characteristics and differences of Zhong Ling's body after turning into a demon, and what he can learn from his research on evil methods.

"I didn't expect that I would gain so much when I came to the Southern Wilderness this time. It's a blessing. As a result, my skills have more development directions. Is it possible for a guy like me to be so evil? , Tiandao still hasn’t given up? It’s really unpredictable.”

Zhang Xusheng was thoughtful and said to himself.

Zhang Xusheng was so conceited, but he never regarded anyone as his equal, and actually developed the habit of talking to himself. There may be other reasons, but we still don’t know at this moment.

While Zhang Xusheng was talking to himself, the demon finally woke up slowly.

The countless eyes on his body were restored to their original state, and the two eyes on his face opened together. When he saw Zhang Xusheng right in front of him, he couldn't help but be startled, jumped up, and ran away from a distance. Once again, he looked nervous and alert.

The impression Zhang Xusheng gave him was too profound and terrifying. Although he had lost his mind and was as violent as a demon, he still didn't dare to do anything to Zhang Xusheng, and he didn't even dare to escape.

After checking the body, it was found that apart from being dissected, there were no other changes. The "Purgatory Rod" that it valued most was still in its body, which made the demon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As for being dissected, due to its powerful self-healing ability, it is no different from a mortal falling down, except for some pain.

"Don't worry, I have no interest in you anymore." Zhang Xusheng looked at the nervous demon in front of him and smiled: "You should go do what you should do now. I think you should be able to Sensing the ground.”

While speaking, Zhang Xusheng suddenly disappeared from the spot and lost all traces.

After standing still for a long time, with still no trace of Zhangxu Holy Land, the demon dared to move slowly. After confirming that Zhang Xusheng was indeed gone, it finally felt relieved.

It had just relaxed, but its body suddenly shook, and there was an inexplicable feeling in its heart. It was an aura that it hated very much. It was far, far away, tens of thousands of miles away. It's just that although the distance is far away, the induction is so clear.

Madness and killing gradually filled the demon's mind, but the previous panic towards Zhang Xusheng was no longer seen. He suddenly roared and flew towards the location of the aura.

Ten days later, Xu Qingfan finally arrived at the place he and Zhang Yi had agreed upon.
