Seeking Immortality

Chapter 95 of Quest for the Immortal Path. The weirdness of treasure hunting (26) - Fruits from low places.

How did you find it? "

"Xuan" did not answer Luo's words. Just stare at Luo in front of you. asked coldly.

"Xuan" is used to being alone. But whether it was the previous Righteous Alliance or the "Ming" organization. Or the current Human Alliance or Shura Clan. No trace of him could be found. The art of concealment is rare in the world. Because of this. At this moment, "Xuan" is worried about Luo who can find him. That's why he was so surprised.

Luo didn't care at all about the majesty of the top master in front of him. Still using a cold and indifferent tone. He said to himself: "My master said." This time I collaborated with Xu Qingfan. Xu Qingfan was always very worried about my master. And the senior is also one of the top masters in the world. I often assist my master in attack and defense. In order to prevent senior you and my master from forming a complete alliance in the future. With Xu Qingfan’s character. I will definitely use any means to sow discord between you and my master. All things this time. It's all Xu Qingfan's contribution. My master did not use any of his men's strength. in this operation. Anyone who claims to be my master's subordinate. His words follow his actions. None of them can be trusted. "

"Xuan" frowned for a moment. Originally, he didn't believe that Zhang Xusheng would treat him like this. I heard Luo's words at this moment. Immediately I was convinced. But he still sneered that Xu Qingfan was responsible for this operation. And your master is responsible for picking the fruits. Is it right? snort. That guy is best at using the power of others to do things for himself. alright. I listened to your family's explanation. Now you tell me. How on earth did you find me. besides. What else does your master want from me? "

Although sneered. But his words no longer had the alienating feeling before. Although Luo's tone was uncomfortable, his words were still respectful. And Zhang Xu Sheng's subordinates have always looked down upon no one except Zhang Xu Sheng. "Xuan" has become accustomed to it over the years. Unless you directly question "Xuan"'s ability like Qiu did. Violated the negative scale of "". Otherwise, "Xuan" would be too lazy to care.

However. Luo still did not answer the question "". He continued to mind his own business and said: "My master also said that you used to be proud. If Xu Qingfan's people anger you, you will definitely take revenge. And the main target of Xu Qingfan's action is "Luo Shengzhu". So you take revenge. The method is most likely to take away the "Shuluo Holy Pearl" according to Xu Qingfan's plan. My master judged that there is a 40% chance that the "Shuluo Holy Pearl" will still be among Xu Qingfan and you. The probability is 30%. My master said, if you have the "Shura Holy Pearl", please give it to me in the next life."

Luo ignored his own problems again and again. Even "Xuan" knew that all Zhang Xusheng's men had such weird tempers. At this moment, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

His tone became cold and distant again, and he said in a cold voice: "You must retaliate if you come?" This sentence sounds weird. It seems as if your master is going to die soon. "Shura Holy Pearl" is in my hand. Is this your master’s request? Yes, but you have to tell me how you found me first. "

Said. His tone suddenly became colder and harsher: "I think it's because of Zhang Xu Holy Land's face that he has been patient with you again and again." If you dare to ignore me again, don't blame me for not giving Zhang Xusheng face. "

Hear the words "Xuan". Luo Yinleng's eyes flashed with anger, not because he was angry and threatened by "Xuan", but because he was angry and "Xuan" disrespected Zhang Xusheng.

Unknowingly. Luo finally began to answer "Xuan"'s question with a sarcastic smile on his face.

He still carries these four swords on his body. Your whereabouts cannot escape our eyes. "

Hear Luo Di dialect. "Xuan"'s body was shaken. Stand up suddenly. He asked sternly: "Zhang Xusheng actually plotted against me!!??"

Although "Xuan" was seriously injured at the moment, his remaining strength might not even be able to defeat a golden elixir stage monk. But after all, he was one of the top masters in the world. Every word and action. Own dignity. He stood up and asked. Luo Zhi felt an extremely fierce momentum coming towards him. Under pressure. Can't help but take a few steps back. He almost fell to the ground.

only. Although the momentum of "Xuan" is amazing. But after a brief discoloration. Luo's expression was not only almost back to normal. The sarcastic smile on his face deepened. His tone also became colder.

It means he is dying. The so-called afterlife. Refers to your afterlife. second. My master’s request to my seniors. It's not that he asked for the "Shura Holy Pearl" from his seniors. said my master. With his relationship with you. There is no need to ask for this kind of thing. My master wants something else. That's...your whole body. "

After a pause. Luo seemed to remember something. Then he said: "Yes, there is one. My master asked me to tell you that the fruit is ripe. It is time to pick it. Although the fruit grows at the lower part of the tree, it is also useful. This is the agreement I made with my master back then. "

Hear these words from Luo. Weird. The anger on "Xuan"'s face gradually disappeared. Instead, he showed a trace of trance and confusion. As if remembering something.

"Xuan" lives a solitary life. He only has a certain connection with Zhang Xusheng. It seems like a transaction. Zhang Xusheng found a magic weapon for "Xuan". "Xuan" does something for Zhang Xusheng. But actually. Can trade with "Xuan" like this. There is only one Zhang Xusheng in the world.

~~~~~-~~-~~-~~-~~~~~~-~~-~~~-~~-~

The origin of "Xuan" is quite mysterious. There is no master. There is no inheritance. After he was born, he became a top player at that time. The "Eight Gate Sword Formation" he built. There are few enemies in life.

But no one knows. "Xuan" has the current cultivation level. He has a great relationship with Zhang Xusheng.

A long time ago. "Xuan" was originally just a simple swordsman in the mortal world. He only wants to reach the pinnacle of swordsmanship in his lifetime. One day. "" I was practicing swordplay in the mountains while turning around. Suddenly, a young scribe was seen standing not far away. Watching him practice his sword with a smile. The smile is elegant and mysterious.

"Martial arts. It's just the final stage. With your talent and character. Just practicing martial arts. It's too wasteful. Here are the basic skills required for cultivating immortals. And the "Eight Gate Sword Formation" I accidentally came across some time ago depends on your character. It's just right to fix it. I'm giving it to you now hoping you won't disappoint me."

A few elegant and feminine voices sounded in "Xuan"'s ears. The next moment. Two books have appeared in front of "Xuan".

Browse briefly. "Xuan" is sure that what is recorded here is the legendary cultivation method of immortality. I am happy in my heart. Between looking up. Now the young scribe has disappeared.

"Why are you so helpful?"

"Xuan" ran among the woods. Asked loudly.

"A piece of fertile soil. The best fruit trees should be planted. Work hard and wait for the fruits to mature. I will pick them."

Among the woods. The elegant and feminine voice sounded again. Then there was no trace of the young scribe again.

that one

"Xuan" is just a mortal. And Zhang Xusheng is just a low-level monk who has just passed away.

…

Time flies by and nearly a thousand years have passed.

After thousands of years of unparalleled concentration and hard work, Xuan "Xuan" finally achieved great success. After he was born, he also learned about the mysterious young man who was brought into the world of immortality. It turned out to be - the first day of the Dijiuhua Mountain lineage in three thousand years. At this moment, he has become a noble Grandmaster Zhang Xusheng.

At that time. Zhang Xusheng is still the next head of the Jiuhua lineage in everyone's mind. He studies witchcraft. No one knows.

certainly. At this moment, "Xuan" has already become a master. Cultivation progress. Not any slower than the genius Zhang Xusheng. Even more so.

"A fruit that looks very tasty. What a pity. It grows very well, but it is tasteless to people."

When "Xuan" came to Jiuhua to see Zhang Xu - the first words said by Xu Sheng. It's so hard to understand.

…

"Qingtian, Xu Qingfan, Zhang Yi...are these people the fruits you will pick in the future? I remember you also regarded me as a fruit back then. Why are you cooperating with me now?"

The picture changes. In the blink of an eye, another thousand hours passed. Both Zhang Xusheng and "Xuan" have become ordinary Nascent Soul stage masters. He has grown up to be the most powerful person in the world. in. Zhang Xusheng had already betrayed Jiuhua. Become an evil leader. And "Xuan"'s strength at this moment is still higher than Zhang Xusheng's.

The two joined the mysterious "Ming" organization together. "Xuan" didn't know Zhang Xusheng's purpose in joining this organization. only. Now that Zhang Xusheng has joined. And let him join in too. So he joined. Very simple logic.

According to the requirements of Zhangxu Holy Land. After giving the "Dragon Summoning" and "Ascending Immortal Pill" to Xu Qingfan to help him grow. "Xuan" asked Zhang Xusheng.

"There are kinds of fruits in this world in my eyes. One kind grows high on the fruit trees. It is delicious and sweet. But picking requires climbing up the highland fruit trees. If you are not careful, you will fall from the tree. Although it is dangerous. But After picking, it tastes even better. The second one grows in the lower part of the fruit tree. It is delicious but without the thrilling process, I like the first one. The two are too easy and boring. As far as I'm concerned, Feng Qingtian and the others are the second."

"What do you mean? I'm not as good as Feng Qingtian and the others?"

"I originally wanted to cultivate you as a fruit from a high place. But you grew up in a low place. You are a simple monk. In your heart, you still adhere to the chivalrous code when you were a mortal. Because of what happened back then. To me And too trusting. Although there is no hostility, the important thing is the process of picking fruits, but you are far stronger than them. Yes. It’s just too lazy to pick.”

"So. I let you down instead?"

Where is Bai? "

"So. Everyone in this world is just a fruit that needs to be picked to you?"

Especially the kind that grows high up. Have potential. There must be **. Be hateful. Be scheming. Do whatever it takes. To be extremely dangerous. That's great. Except for your potential. Nothing else qualifies. "

~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~

Memories that should have been forgotten in the trance have flooded into "Xuan"'s mind.

Zhang Xusheng's words have always been difficult to distinguish between true and false. The scene back then. "Xuan" has always been thought to be just what Zhang Xusheng said casually. He always felt. He should be a very special existence to Zhang Sheng. Just like Zhang Xusheng did to him. Just like Xu Qingfan and Jin Qinghan. Keep each other informed. Or have no contact with each other for thousands of years. Or go through fire and water for a word.

otherwise. Before, "Xuan" would not get angry because of Qiu's simple words.

But obviously. "Wrong guess.

Just as Zhang Xusheng said, "Xuan Xuan" is just a simple monk. In his heart, he still adheres to the chivalrous code he used when he was a mortal. No matter how powerful this kind of person is, Zhang Xusheng has no power -

"Do you think of me as a fruit that needs to be picked? Or is it something that is easily accessible? Hahahaha..."

Under Luo's surprised eyes. "Xuan" muttered to himself first. Then the sound got louder and louder. Then burst into laughter. It seemed like something extremely ridiculous had happened.

Between beckons. The seven-handled god began to slowly circle around "Xuan". No longer worried about the injuries in his body. He seems ready to take action at any time.

"Now. I will let Zhang Sheng understand that picking fruits from low places is easy to fall down and get injured. Even if I am a fruit, it is not that easy to pick."

The spiritual energy fluctuations on the ground suddenly became extremely chaotic and violent. He looked up to the sky and howled. He seemed to be greatly stimulated. But in the next moment, he strangely became extremely calm. His eyes started to turn red at some point. He stared coldly. Looking at Luo in front of him, he said word by word.

"Or when picking fruits from low places. People will also fall from the tree, but after all, the fruits grow too low. Even if they fall, it won't hurt too much. This sentence is what my family asked me to say to you at this time. of……"

Outside the cave. A faint voice suddenly came. Ruluo's voice was full of sarcasm.

"All your reactions, including what you would say at this time, were all within my master's expectations. Exactly. That's it. How could you make my master fall from the tree?"

Between sighs. Seventeen monks filed into the cave. Surround "Xuan" in it. Shiba stared at the "Xuan" in the middle with cold eyes.

"ah!!!"

The seven-handled magic weapon suddenly grew in size. Transformed into seven giant swords. Sweeping towards everyone around him fiercely.

A melee. That's how it started.

~~-~~~~~~-~~-~~-~~-~~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-

In the southwest of China's vast land. The war between the Zhong family and the Shura clan is still going on. The spiritual energy was vibrating strongly. The monks all over the world were shocked.

So in a certain corner of the vast land of China. A "Xuan" who was seriously injured and could only exert half of his strength. A battle with eighteen golden elixir peak monks. It doesn't attract others' attention. There is nothing worth describing in detail.

One day later. The war is over.

The original cave. A high mountain with a cave. It had already been reduced to the ground in the war.

Above the ground. "Xuan" is dying. Falling to the ground. Still trying to get up unyieldingly. But it couldn't succeed no matter what.

Around "Xuan". Eight members of the "Dark" organization besieged. There are only seven people left at this moment. The body is in a sorry state. With a pale face, he looked at "Xuan" who was lying on the ground in the middle. His eyes were horrified.

As for the other eleven people. Not even the bones were left behind.

Luo survived the war by luck. Looking at the dying eyes

The "Xuan". His eyes were filled with incredible color.

According to Zhang Xusheng’s judgment. After the war with the Shura clan. "Xuan" must have been seriously injured. It would be good if you can leave half of it behind. Such strength. Even defeating an ordinary Golden Core Stage cultivator is extremely difficult.

And Luo and the other eighteen people all have the strength of the golden elixir at its peak. After going through Zhang Xu's transformation, there was some kind of strange and powerful superpower formation. It can even compete with two to three Nascent Soul Stage monks for a while.

The terrifying demon Zhong Ling back then. Still stuck with them.

But the fact is. "Xuan" indeed only has half of his strength left. Even defeating an ordinary Golden Core Stage cultivator is extremely difficult. But after the Great War. There were only seven of them left. And everyone is hurt.

Even though he won, he still won.

Suddenly I remembered what Zhang Xusheng said to Zi. Luo walked to "Xuan", lowered his body and said in "Xuan"'s ear: "Actually, this is the most expectation my master has for you. If the battle starts, you will not just go all out. Try some ways. Escape. Plan for revenge in the future. We will let you go. Because the master said that you have completed a transformation. He is looking forward to how you will retaliate against him when you no longer care about your dignity. Fighting with all one's strength and venting one's resentment on one's heart...hehe. It sounds good. In this world, those who want to have grudges and grudges will be able to survive long ago. By hook or by crook.”

With. Luo stood up. "Xuan" looked down at his feet. He continued to say in a cold voice: "Don't be resentful. In fact, a simple person like you. If my master hadn't protected you all these years, you would have been used to death by people like Zizhen Immortal Mr. Liu Dafan. Not to mention the reason why you I am able to get to this point largely because of my master... So even though my master has abandoned you for the sake of the overall situation, you have earned nothing to complain about."

After saying that. Luo nodded to the others. He grabbed "Xuan" who was no longer able to resist and jumped away towards the distance.

~~~~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~~-~~~-~~-~~-~~-~

Youzhou. The place where Black Emperor Cliff is located.

It's just that there have been many shocking bloody battles that can affect the world. The Black Emperor Cliff, which was known as the tallest mountain in the world, was razed to the ground early in the war.

but. The land of Youzhou in the past hundred years. No human monk or Shura clan dared to come close. The dispute between the Shura tribe and humans. It will never involve the land of Youzhou. Not only that. The Shura tribe and human monks also sent their own elites. Guard around Youzhou. Keep others out. These defenders belong to two tribes. Even when the battle between humans and the Shura tribe was at its most brutal. They will never take action against each other. Be at peace with each other.

This is because, in Youzhou, a demon that can destroy the world is sealed - "Soul Devouring Insect"!!

After the battle, Luo Ren took a breath of "Xuan" and avoided the guards of the two tribes and entered Youzhou.

In fact, the Shura people cannot be called patient. After sensing the chaos near the base camp, these Shura guards rushed to the base camp to support. So at this moment, only human monks stayed in Youzhou. It was much easier to sneak in than imagined.

"Now, it's time for you to contribute your cultivation to my master."

After flying to the location where the "Soul Devouring Insect" was sealed, looking at the hemispherical colorful barrier in front of him that was as tall as a mountain, Luo smiled slightly and said to the "Xuan" in his hand.

As if sensing something, the barrier in front of him suddenly shook violently. It seemed that the "Soul Devouring Insect" inside was constantly colliding.

Along the way, "Xuan" seemed to have lost heart. No more struggle. After hearing Luo's words, he slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were extremely calm.

"What is your master thinking about?"

"Xuan" asked slowly.

At this time, he already knew the fate he was about to face - the food of the "Soul Devouring Insect". Being swallowed and assimilated by it.

Although "Xuan" had no spiritual energy in his body at the moment, the role of the Nascent Soul and blood essence in his body was greater than that of those spiritual energy. After swallowing "Xuan", with the help of the blood essence and Nascent Soul in "Xuan", even if it was imprinted by the "Spiritual Barrier" and had no spiritual energy to absorb, the "Spirit Devouring Insect" would continue to grow until it broke through the imprisonment.

Luo actually seemed to have never thought about this problem. It had become his instinct to follow Zhang Xusheng's orders without asking the reason. After hearing "Xuan"'s words, he thought for a moment, then gave up and said: "How can I guess what my master thinks?"

While Luo and "Xuan" were talking, more than a hundred talismans were pasted on the other six "Spirit Absolute Barriers". Floating around the talisman in the shape of a "**", muttering something in his mouth.

A moment later, as if snow met the sun, the extremely solid barrier actually melted into a hole about one meter in radius around the talisman.

Suddenly, a breath that made people terrified from the depths of their souls, with the taste of primitive and long-lasting, spread out from the hole. There was no coldness, nor murderous intent. But Luo and others couldn't help but shudder.

Suddenly, a silent howl sounded in everyone's heart. At the same time, a black tentacle as thick as a person's waist stretched out from the hole like lightning, and was about to roll towards everyone.

Seeing this tentacle, Luo suddenly woke up. When he raised his hand, a huge rock suddenly formed in front of him. Then he smashed the tentacle that rolled towards him.

With a roar, the tentacle was smashed back into the knot.

"Senior, forgive me."

Luo said to "Xuan".

At this time, "Xuan" seemed to have let go of everything. Facing the upcoming fate, his eyes were still calm.

"Tell your master that he is playing with fire."

"This is not playing with fire. This is planting a stronger fruit tree." Luo replied in a deep voice. Then he suddenly smiled. He said, "My master's original words."

As he spoke, he raised his hand. "Xuan"'s body was thrown into the barrier.

No screams. No exclamations. A calm.

The other six members of the "An" team murmured again. The talismans around the cave entrance flashed with spiritual light as the six people whispered. Then the hole in the barrier slowly closed. As the talismans all turned into flames and fell, the barrier was the same as before.

"When you appear again, it will be a new era."

Looking at the barrier in front of him, Luo's eyes flashed with obsession.

As Luo and others left Zhang Xusheng's layout, it was officially completed.
