True Immortal of the Netherworld

Early this morning, Xu Yang was preparing to go to Lingcao Garden to check. While walking on the hillside, suddenly the ground beneath my feet shook violently, followed by a loud rumbling sound from the crust.

After the earthquake, Xu Yang was worried whether the Lingcao Garden he was looking after had been damaged by the earthquake, and he had to rush to check. Suddenly, I noticed that the compass in the storage bag on my waist seemed to be moving.

When he took out the compass and took a look, he saw that the compass in his hand was emitting a dazzling silver light. Silver runes were flowing rapidly on the compass. Suddenly, a ray of silver light shot out from the compass and shot straight into the sky. Xu Yang wanted to stop the abnormal movement of the compass and hurriedly injected mana into the compass.

Xu Yang only felt that his magic power was being sucked into the compass like a mud cow entering the sea. The next moment, a string of silver seal characters the size of walnuts jumped out of it like a chicken breaking out of its shell. Everything happened so suddenly, before Xu Yang could react, the silver seal characters jumped into Xu Yang's eyebrows and disappeared.

Xu Yang was shocked and instinctively threw the compass to the ground. He quickly ran the Dark Fire Technique and used his spiritual consciousness to look inside his body, but found nothing wrong. The silver seal characters that entered his body had long since disappeared.

Xu Yang was about to pick up the compass thrown on the ground when he suddenly saw a white shadow falling from the sky and hitting the compass. Immediately afterwards, the compass on the ground quickly rose into the sky along with the white shadow.

Seeing this, Xu Yang's heart skipped a beat. Taking a closer look, it turned out to be a snow-white spirit crow grabbing a silver compass and flying away into the sky.

Without any hesitation, Xu Yang quickly threw a black ball, which turned into a black eagle in the wind. Xu Yang jumped onto the eagle's back and chased the snow-colored crow in the direction where it flew away with all his strength.

"Damn ghost bird, when I catch you, I will make you into a roast crow and drink it!" Xu Yang shouted angrily.

How could Snow Crow pay attention to Xu Yang? He grabbed the compass and flew at high speed. This snow-colored spirit crow seemed to be very familiar with the terrain here. In three turns and two, it had already bypassed several mountain peaks.

After circling for half an hour, they had already chased out of the Muling Academy and entered the "Array Engineering Academy", a branch of the Tiangui Sect.

The Formation Engineering Institute is the branch within the Tiangui Sect responsible for the layout and maintenance of various formations.

At this time, Xu Yang was getting closer and closer to the Snow-colored Spirit Crow. The spirit crow swooped down and flew into a unique courtyard on the hillside. Xu Yang landed in front of the courtyard, and the black eagle turned into a black ball and was put away by Xu Yang.

This courtyard is built against the mountain and faces a small lake. The green lotuses in the lake are connected and woven into a green carpet. Lotus flowers as white as snow stand gracefully among the lotus leaves. The breeze blows and the fragrance of the lotus is refreshing.

Looking up, there is a horizontal plaque hanging on the door of the courtyard with the words "Tianxiangzhai" written on it.

On both sides of the door hangs a small couplet carved on rosewood. On the left, it says: The sleeves are dancing and the ink smells fragrant; on the right, it says: The book opens with poetic charm; the fonts are elegant and graceful, complementing the surrounding beautiful scenery.

The red sleeves add fragrance, and the book opens with charm. Seeing this, Xu Yang had a plan in his mind. The environment of this place is so beautiful, its owner must be of extraordinary status, and most likely she is a mistress who likes to dance and write.

"I'm here, Xu Yang, a newly admitted outer disciple of the Wood Spirit Academy, is disturbing the senior's Qing Xiu." Xu Yang said loudly towards the door.

"Xu Yang, are you a new outer sect disciple? You and I don't know each other. Why are you here today?" A moment later, a string of silver bell-like sounds floated out through the crack in the door.

When these few words reached his ears, Xu Yang felt as if he was hearing the tinkling sound of the first melting snow in spring. Such a clear and sweet sound soothed Xu Yang's nervous mood.

"Senior, don't be surprised. A silver compass was snatched away by a spirit crow, and I chased it all the way. I just saw it flying into senior's mansion."

"Really?" Two crisp words again.

Not long after, the courtyard door was gently pushed open with a creak, and a girl in white was seen standing inside.

Xu Yang couldn't help but be startled.

This girl has a good look. Her eyes are as crystal clear as the stars in the night sky, her lips are as delicate as plum blossoms in May, and her white shirt is as spotless as white lotuses emerging from the water. Xu Yang was already amazed by the beauty of the girl in front of him. He always has a love for beauty, not just about gender.

Xu Yang suddenly realized that he had lost his composure. He said quickly: "I'm Xu Yang."

Seeing Xu Yang's expression, the girl smiled and said: "Please come into the courtyard to talk. People who cultivate the truth are not as rigid as those who stick to worldly details."

Xu Yang smiled awkwardly and replied: "That's what the girl said."

"However, apart from my father, you are really the first fellow disciple to visit me." After saying that, the girl giggled, her pretty face blooming like a peach blossom.

Seeing the girl's lively personality and approachable speech, Xu Yang naturally relaxed a little and said, "I dare to ask the girl what she calls her."

"It looks like you and I should be about the same age. Just call me Lin'er."

Lin'er waved her hand and let Xu Yang into the courtyard.

There appear to be seven or eight rooms in the courtyard. There are several flower gardens in the courtyard, with a pavilion in the middle and a circuitous corridor running between the pavilion and the house.

The two came to the pavilion.

I saw a stone table made of white marble placed in the center of the pavilion, with four stone benches placed around it.

"Please take a seat."

Xu Yang adjusted his clothes lightly with his hands and sat down opposite Lin'er.

At this time, I saw a dignified-looking maid walking out of the house not far away. She was holding a tray in her hand. She walked through the corridor and came to Xu Yang and the two of them.

He neatly arranged the tea sets on the tray, poured a cup of tea and gently placed it in front of Xu Yang. He smiled politely at Xu Yang and then stepped aside.

"Tea, please." Lin'er waved her hand and said.

Xu Yang picked up the teacup with both hands and quickly thanked him. I thought to myself, I don't know what the origin of this girl named Lin'er is. Not only does she live in a good living environment, but she is also served by such elegant maids. She is probably from a famous family.

I don't know if it was because he was nervous before entering the door just now, but Xu Yang felt a little thirsty. When I picked up the tea cup, I felt a refreshing fragrance entering my nose, and my desire to drink tea became even stronger.

The tea is fragrant and mellow when you enter it. A stream of pure spiritual energy slowly spreads out from the belly and goes straight through the hundreds of meridians, making you feel refreshed and refreshed. Even the fatigue from practicing non-stop in the past few days was gone.

"Good tea, I have limited knowledge, but what I drank today is absolutely extraordinary." Xu Yang said.

"Dad personally sent this tea a few days ago. It's called "Fairy Spring". If you like it, you can have a few more cups."

…

"Thank you Miss Lin'er for the good tea. What about the compass?" Xu Yang was still thinking about his compass.

"Please wait a moment." As she said this, Lin'er gently raised her hand in the air. Then a white shadow flew in from outside the pavilion. It was the spirit crow who stole Xu Yang's compass, still holding the shining silver compass in its mouth.

"Xue'er, put down the compass." Lin'er glanced at Ling Ya and said.

With a clang, the compass was placed on the stone table by Spirit Crow.

"Go and play by yourself."

Except for two black bean-like eyeballs, this spirit crow is all white. After hearing Lin'er's instructions, Ling Ya rolled his eyes at Xu Yang, then raised his neck, spread his wings and flew out of the pavilion, disappearing in an instant.

"It's this compass." Seeing the lost compass close at hand, Xu Yang beamed with joy.

"Xue'er is my spiritual pet. She likes shiny things, so she's causing trouble for her junior brother." With that said, Lin'er picked up the compass with both hands and handed it to Xu Yang, her eyes scanning the compass naturally.

"I'm causing trouble for Miss Lin'er." Xu Yang took the compass with both hands, looked at it carefully, and put it in his pocket.

"Excuse me, I accidentally took a look at this compass just now and found that this compass is not a belonging of our sect, but it is like the Yu Dao Sect's spirit chasing compass. How could Junior Brother Xu have the Yu Dao Sect's magic weapon." Lin'er's tone was clear. A bit alert.

"Miss Lin'er, do you suspect that there is any connection between me and the Yu Dao Sect?" Xu Yang said with a wry smile.

Seeing that he could not hide it, Xu Yang said sincerely: "I was originally an ordinary mortal from the Laiyang Kingdom. When I went into the mountains to collect medicine, I met Senior Tu Sanli of Fenggui Hall. This compass was given to me by Senior Tu and handed over to the sect. A senior. I really don’t know the specific origin. Judging from the girl’s conversation, she must be a well-educated person, so she won’t embarrass me.”

"That's it. It is said that Laiyang State respects Confucianism as the state religion, and children of several years old are good at writing poems and lyrics. Since my junior brother claims to be knowledgeable and polite, he must be good at it."

Lin'er raised her brows, smiled and continued: "I happened to have nothing to do yesterday and wanted to fill in a short poem "Die Lian Hua", but now I can only fill in the top column. Can you please help fill in the bottom column."

"Please enlighten me." Xu Yang was a little confused. He didn't know what Lin'er meant by asking him to write lyrics.

Lin'er took out a white paper fan and unfolded it gently. I took out my pen and ink, held my breath, and a few lines of handsome characters appeared on the fan: "Spring arrives in a pond of sapphire leaves. The green water is long, and my longing is still unresolved. I whisper in front of the pond, and the beauty in the mirror in the water fades."

After Lin'er finished writing, she gently blew on the fan to dry the ink, and then handed the written paper fan to Xu Yang.

Xu Yang took the paper fan and looked at it carefully. I couldn't help but think about it in my mind. This word was obviously expressing the feeling of longing. If it was a relationship between a man and a woman, how could it be expressed to a strange man whom he had only met once. It must be the affection between her parents. Just now she mentioned that her father had just come to deliver spiritual tea to her a few days ago. It must be that the longing expressed in this word is probably her mother.

"Dare I ask if this word expresses the feeling of missing your father-in-law?" Xu Yang asked.

"That's right." Lin'er nodded slightly.

Xu Yang thought about himself. Although he had just left home not long ago, his missing for his mother was growing day by day.

Xu Yang raised his head slightly and saw a few willow trees flecked with catkins by the lake in the distance. So I picked up a pen and wrote next to it: The dawn breeze and the willows are trailing by the lake. The flying catkins rustle, when will the melancholy rest? When I arrive at the small building at night, the wind is like snow, and the sky is like the bright moon at this moment. "The pen moved like a dragon and a snake, and it was done in one go. Then he respectfully returned the paper fan to Lin'er and said, "I'm showing off my shame. "

Lin'er hurriedly stood up and took the paper fan. She looked at the back carefully and looked happy. She bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for helping me fill in the box. I will give you this fan as a way of reciprocating a favor."

Xu Yang took the paper fan very happily, thanked him repeatedly, and put the paper fan away.

Xu Yang didn't know that it was more than just the next sentence of a poem.

The ink used to write just now is spiritual ink used to train the writer's mental strength, which is beneficial to cultivating the state of mind. Its function is to reflect what the writer is thinking when writing, thereby eliminating the writer's distracting thoughts, thereby improving mental strength.

After Lin'er finished writing the fan, she blew it seemingly casually, but in fact, with this breath, she quietly imprinted a ray of her consciousness on the paper fan.

When Xu Yang was writing, because he missed his mother, the past of Tu Sanli treating his mother flashed in his mind, and each one of them was reflected in the ink he had just written.

When Lin'er took back the paper fan and looked at it carefully, she quietly took back the ray of consciousness imprinted on the paper fan. The image in Xu Yang's mind was carried on it and Lin'er could see it at a glance.

…

Xu Yang was worried that the Lingcao Garden he was looking after would be damaged in the earthquake. Seeing that he had retrieved the compass, he hurriedly said goodbye to Lin'er. When they met for the first time, Xu Yang did not boldly ask about Lin'er's origins. However, Xu Yang had a good impression of this girl Lin'er. He found the compass and received a paper fan from Lin'er, which made him feel very good.

Return to Lingcao Garden.

After careful inspection, Xu Yang found that the Lingcao Garden was only slightly damaged due to the formation prohibition protection. Xu Yang took care of it for a while and restored it to its original state.

Xu Yang returned to his residence and had a strange dream at night.

A red egg was sealed in a huge transparent crystal, and a girl's shadow appeared inside the egg.

This girl had no clothes on her body, and her curled-up jade body, with its smooth lines, hung there quietly like a silver moon. Red cloud-like hair spreads over the small shoulders, a pair of lotus-white arms hug her chest tightly, and there is a faint plump curve in the arms that rises and falls with her breathing. From time to time, there were waves of intoxicating whispers: "Come and help me, come and help me."

Xu Yang woke up from his dream involuntarily and touched his cheek, which felt hot. After thinking about it carefully, Xu Yang was confused as to whether those silver seal characters entered the body and caused hallucinations.
