Chapter 109 – The Mystery of the Wéixū

Xu Ying was stunned, his familiar taste was the taste of Meng Po's soup.

Everything in his dream was real.

It wasn't a dream, perhaps it was revisiting an old place, or perhaps this place contained a mysterious power, awakening a memory sealed three thousand years ago.

Those past events were sealed by Meng Po's soup, forgotten by him, and now they resurfaced.

He relived that memory in his dream, as if it were a fantasy.

His heart was ignited with a raging fire, filled with sadness and anger; why did he have to experience all of this? Who was manipulating his fate?

He was filled with the desire to kill!

The old man in white, Beichen, looked at him and drank a cup of Meng Po's soup without any concern, thinking to himself, "It's just like drinking water. I hope the two fellow daoists have already arrived at the Heavenly God Palace. I hope they can quickly deliver the Demon Sealing Rune and that nothing happens along the way..."

Xu Ying's fierce gaze swept over, and Beichen's heart skipped a beat, almost slipping away. He thought to himself, "What kind of look is this? Does he recognize me?"

He felt a chill down his spine. "Did he remember me? No, that's not right. Jiang Jiatian was not sent by me. I only met him twice. The first time was at Wuwang Mountain, and the second time was here. There was no third time. He couldn't possibly recognize me!"

The fierce aura in Xu Ying's gaze gradually dissipated, his expression became gloomy, and he seemed absent-minded, always thinking about those few months.

Sometimes he would suddenly feel that everything around him was still there. But when he snapped out of it, he realized that he had already lost it.

Da Zhong saw this and was about to ring the bell to help him recover, but he saw Xu Ying repeatedly activating the Return to Heart Seal, stabilizing his mind, forcing himself not to indulge in random thoughts.

Da Zhong sighed inwardly and let go of his worries. "Ah Ying can come out on his own. His Dao heart is already very strong."

Xu Ying slowly walked around the Imperial City. When he first entered this stone city, everything felt familiar, but now it seemed so distant.

After all, he had lived here for a few months and had some beautiful memories.

Finally, they were about to leave this place.

Qi Xian revealed his true form, and everyone sat on his head. Xu Ying invited Beichen to come up, and Beichen was delighted to have an excuse to travel with him. He happily climbed onto the snake's head.

"It smells so good!" Beichen smelled the scent of immortal medicine on Zhuchan's body and couldn't help but salivate. Xu Ying asked, "Senior Beichen, you have seen and experienced a lot. I have a question to ask. The Great Han Emperor has been gone for three thousand years, and the rise of the Demon Sealing Master was three thousand years ago. Is there any connection between the disappearance of Qi Refiners and the rise of Demon Sealing Masters?"

Upon hearing this, Da Zhong couldn't help but pay attention as well.

Beichen's eyes flickered, and he smiled, "I don't know about such ancient matters. The decline of Qi Refiners and the rise of Demon Sealing Masters, isn't it unusual? Qi Refiners were not suitable for the times and were eliminated by history, it's only natural."

Xu Ying asked further, "I heard that the decline of Qi Refiners and the rise of Demon Sealing Masters was due to the problem of the Heavenly Human Connection. Have you heard any rumors about this?"

Beichen's face slightly changed, "Who told you that?"

Realizing what he had said, he quickly laughed, "It's all just rumors, there's nothing to it. Not to mention events from three thousand years ago, even events from three hundred years ago, who can say for sure? I'm just a small Demon Sealing Master..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhuchan punched him in the chest and exclaimed, "You're clearly a Qi Refiner, why do you say you're a Demon Sealing Master?"

Beichen was hit by her punch, causing the treasures hidden inside his body to rattle and jump around, making him feel shocked, "This little lady's punch is so powerful!"

Zhuchan's punch didn't hurt him at all, but the treasures hidden in his Empty Silence Domain were almost shattered. This shocked Beichen.

He circulated his Yuan Qi and a series of Heavenly Realms appeared behind him, emitting a purple aura. Those Heavenly Realms were rooted in a sea of purple aura, gathering and dispersing, creating a magnificent scene.

Beichen said to Xu Ying, "You see, I'm clearly a Micro Master."

Zhuchan was surprised and scratched her head, "Strange, I clearly sensed the aura of Qi Refiner treasures from you."

Da Zhong and Qi Xian were also surprised. They had thought that Beichen was in cahoots with the old man with a worried expression, and they believed that he must be a Qi Refiner. They didn't expect Beichen to be a true Demon Sealing Master!

Xu Ying remained calm and said, "I originally thought Zhou Qiyun was the first person to cultivate both Qi Refining and Demon Sealing, but it turns out Senior Beichen is the first person to cultivate both Qi Refining and Demon Sealing."

Upon hearing this, Beichen laughed heartily, "I do have some knowledge about Qi Refining. What does King Xu want to know? I will tell you everything I know."

Meng Po's soup asked, "During the time of the Great Han Emperor, a Qi Refiner named Dong proposed the Heavenly Human Connection, allowing the Great Master to communicate with the gods and cause chaos in this place called Luo Cai, resulting in the disappearance of everyone in the Imperial City overnight."

Beichen's face turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "He remembered these things? Wasn't his memory sealed?"

Meng Po's soup asked, "May I ask what kind of chaos happened?"

Beichen panicked in his heart and said, "How would I know about such ancient matters? I'm just an ordinary old man passing through this place. The events from three thousand years ago have nothing to do with me..."

Xu Ying continued to ask, "Where did all those people go? Where did the Qi Refiners go? They couldn't have disappeared overnight!"Bei Chenzi gritted his teeth and said, "I really just passed by this place. I... well, I heard a little bit about Luo Caizhi's matter. It is said that it may be related to the resonance of the celestial beings during the time of the Martial Emperor. At that time, the cultivation of Qi had reached a dead end, and people, in order to seek immortality, embarked on another path, which is the resonance with the celestial beings, amplifying their connection with the natural world."

Theft is never good, try looking at [ pawread.com ].

Sweat beads appeared on his forehead as he continued, "They sensed the divine."

Xu Ying asked in confusion, "Divine? Could it be the heavenly gods?"

Bei Chenzi shook his head and said, "Not heavenly gods. The divine they sensed did not come from the heavenly realm, but from another void called the Meixu. It is rumored that the Ghost Meixu is hidden in the depths of the abyss."

Xu Ying pondered for a moment. At this time, he was exploring the edge of the abyss, searching for the phoenix tree that might inhabit the famous mountains and rivers.

He couldn't help but look down and saw that the two worlds of Yin and Yang were still colliding in the abyss. Deafening sounds, like the roar of a bull and the roar of a dragon, came from the underground.

If he used his heavenly eyes to look, he could still see the huge and slippery body rolling in the lava, but upon closer inspection, it was scales of rocks.

"In that era, Qi cultivators were unable to ascend. By amplifying their connection, they came into contact with the mysterious divine beings in the Meixu. Under the guidance of these divine beings, they developed a more subtle method of connection."

Bei Chenzi's forehead was covered in even more cold sweat. He carefully selected what he could say and continued, "This subtle method of connection allows Qi cultivators to delve deeper into the Meixu and establish a deeper connection with its world. There were legends that entering the Meixu could grant immortality. Perhaps, the disappearance of the Emperor's Mound and its reappearance now is related to the resonance with the Meixu."

Xu Ying's heart pounded violently as he suddenly thought of the mystery of cultivation.

When one delves too deep into cultivation, they would sense a great terror, as if they were hearing unimaginable whispers from the abyss, pulling the cultivator into the depths!

He had experienced this situation himself!

Could it be that the great terror one encounters when delving too deep into cultivation is actually the divine beings of the Meixu?

It was very possible!

But why is it that after Qi cultivators established a connection with the divine beings of the Meixu, it becomes a great terror that threatens their lives after reaching the stage of cultivation?

Death was possible in cultivation!

This was almost a consensus among all talented cultivators, making it a dangerous endeavor!

Suddenly, he took out the two pages of techniques that Yuan Weiyang had given him. The Yuan Family's technique of sensing the celestial realms made his heart beat faster!

The Yuan Family's technique of sensing the celestial realms allowed one to cultivate an unparalleled divine consciousness and sense the celestial realms, possessing unimaginable supernatural powers. The Yuan Family was deeply hidden in this path!

"Perhaps I can use this technique to sense the depths of the abyss!"

Xu Ying's eyes grew darker and darker. Although what Yuan Weiyang had given him was only a fragment, it was enough. He had originally planned to complete the shortcomings of this technique and cultivate it when he could refine the Huangting Immortal Medicine.

But now, he decided to postpone his cultivation and strengthen his divine consciousness, to come into contact with the Huixu world that Bei Chenzi mentioned!

Xu Ying asked, "Senior, is the end of the abyss the Ghost Meixu?"

Bei Chenzi shook his head, "I don't know."

"Then, did the Qi cultivators establish a connection with the Meixu during the time of Emperor Wu of the Great Han, leading to the disappearance of Qi cultivators?"

"I don't know."

"Did those who disappeared go to the Ke Xu?"

"I don't know."

"Then, is the reappearance of the ancient world in the present related to being released from the Xu?"

"I don't know."

Bei Chenzi didn't know the answers to Xu Ying's questions, which made Xu Ying's anger rise. He waved his sleeve and said, "If you don't know anything, what use are you? If you don't know the answer to the next question, then please leave, Senior!"

Bei Chenzi's face showed a difficult expression as he thought, "I don't know some of the questions he asked, and I know some but can't say. I am helpless!"

Meng Po Soup: "Zixiao, you should know where we are now, right?"

Bei Chenzi wanted to answer "I don't know," but thinking about Xu Ying's anger just now, he was worried that Xu Ying would run around. He thought, "Let him find that silly phoenix, then I don't have to worry about him running around. When the Demon-Sealing Rune arrives, everything will be fine, and I can have peace for many years!"

He chuckled, "Xu Yao Wang is too gentle. This is not good. But fortunately, I know a few places where there are phoenix trees that can attract the phoenix. Maybe we can find that little phoenix in these places."

Xu Ying's anger turned into joy, and he apologized to Bei Chenzi, "I apologize for my attitude just now. Please forgive me, Senior."

Bei Chenzi said, "What fault do you have?"

As he said this, he suddenly paused and thought, "Wait a minute! He asked me questions, and I didn't answer. He got angry. I risked my life to answer, and he apologized to me. I said he was not at fault. Hmm..."

He shivered, "What's wrong with me?"

Bei Chenzi blamed himself for a while, then cheered up and said, "If you go to Mount Song, you probably won't find Luo Cairui. The Book of Songs says, 'The phoenix is crying on that high hill; the wutong tree is growing in the morning sun.' The wutong tree that can attract the phoenix must be a divine tree. Such a tree must be planted in the highest place, where it can see the first ray of sunlight every day!"After his explanation, Xu Ying immediately understood. The phoenix tree on Jiuyi Mountain grew on the top of the mountain, higher than the surrounding peaks, so it could attract the Zixiao Dao to land on it.

Beichen Zi said, "The phoenix is good at awakening the bloodline of ancient divine birds. Wherever the phoenix lands, there must be other exotic birds. We just need to focus on these two things to know if there is a phoenix there."

Xu Ying sincerely thanked him and said, "Without the guidance of the seniors, we would have gone astray."

Beichen Luo asked Xu Ying, "Xu Yao Wang, why are you in such a hurry to find Luo Cai Rui?"

Xu Ying glanced at Zhuchan Chan and said, "Isn't it to protect her?"

Beichen Zi looked at Zhuchan Chan with confusion and said, "Protect her? Why protect this girl? This girl smells so good!"

He didn't mind and smiled, "Why would we need a phoenix to protect her? With me here, it's easy to protect her. If Xu Yao Wang trusts me, why not go to Songshan? We can stay there for a few days and meet this girl's enemies."

While Zhuchan Chan was refining the elixir in her body, she suddenly woke up and said to Mengpo Tang, "I've been targeted. We need to find a place to hide quickly!"

Xu Ying hesitated for a moment and said to Beichen Zi, "Then, after we arrive at Songshan, please help us resist the strong enemies."

"Sure, no problem."

Beichen Zi readily agreed, thinking to himself, "If we follow them around searching for a phoenix, it will be difficult for our two friends to find us. I don't know how long it will take to set up the demon-sealing seal and leave it in Songshan."

Songshan was not far away, and the speed of the Qiyou movement was extremely fast. Before it got dark, they arrived at the foot of Songshan.

Today's Songshan was exceptionally different, becoming even more majestic and tall. This mountain was different from before. There used to be seventy-two peaks, but now seventy-two peaks emerged from the ground, growing more mountains from the bottom up!

There were thousands of peaks growing together with the seventy-two peaks on a huge mountain!

The ancient and grand mountain was steep and difficult to climb, with clouds and mist floating between the mountains. A torrential river flowed down from the mountains and fell from the edge of the mountain, forming a magnificent waterfall.

When Xu Ying and the others arrived here, the sun was setting, and the setting sun seemed to hang in the gap between the waterfall and the mountain, making the mountain even more majestic.

There was also immortal energy lingering in the mountains, which should be the cave heaven and blessed land mentioned by Pei Du.

"Let's go to the highest peak and see if there are phoenix trees within a thousand miles." Xu Ying suggested.

Beichen Zi naturally agreed, thinking to himself, "The highest peak is the best. It will be difficult for our two friends to find us if we give them a signal as soon as possible."

Mengpo Tang said, "Seventh Lord, I trouble you."

Tui Qi smiled and said, "A sword is kept for a thousand days and used in one moment. Now is the time for me to show off!"

He circulated his qi and blood, and suddenly, sword energy circulated around his body. This twenty-foot-long giant snake rode on the sword energy and flew towards the towering peak of Songshan!

Beichen Zi was stunned and thought, "This big snake not only awakened its bloodline but also is a Qi Refiner who cultivates both masculine and feminine energies. If he reaches the Ascension stage, who can be his opponent?"

"Fortunately, he doesn't seem too foolish," he added in his mind.

When they arrived at the golden peak of Songshan, the sun had set, but the golden peak was still dark, illuminated by sunlight.

Zhuchan Chan was restless and whispered, "A Ying, the Heavenly Demon is about to come. I'm afraid it will arrive tonight."

Xu Ying comforted her, saying, "With Beichen Zi here, you can rest assured."

Zhuchan Chan was still uneasy.

Xu Ying said to Beichen Zi, "Chan Chan has enemies coming tonight, and their strength is extremely formidable. I ask for your help, senior."

Zhuchan Chan was still uneasy.

Xu Ying said to Beichen Zi, "Chan Chan has enemies coming tonight, and their strength is extremely formidable. I ask for your help, senior." Beichen Xu Ying said, "Just let them come. If they come with their lives, they won't leave with them!"

Xu Ying felt relieved and asked Zhuchan Chan, "How will the Heavenly Demon find us?"

Zhuchan Chan said, "The Heavenly Demon is good at seizing bodies and is extremely cunning. If it seizes a strong person, its strength will be even stronger." Xu Ying suddenly became completely worried and smiled, "There is no one here except us for it to possess. Moreover, we still have Lord Zhong. The Heavenly Demon won't be able to possess anyone."

Zhuchan Chan said, "I hope so."

Songshan has a circumference of three thousand miles, and there is immortal light enveloping the Sima Cave Heaven. This Cave Heaven is even larger than Jiuyi, and it is rumored that Deng Xianren ascended here, leaving behind a piece of Ascension Land.

At this moment, night fell, and the families of Pei, Cui, Li, and others were still excavating in this Cave Heaven, trying to find the treasures left by the ancient immortals.

The major families knew that they couldn't monopolize this Cave Heaven, so they excavated together, acting as tomb raiders.

During these days, they suffered numerous casualties but also obtained a considerable number of treasures.

"We found it! We found it!"

Suddenly, excited shouts came from the Cave Heaven. Some tomb raiders were overjoyed and reported to the elders, saying, "We have dug up an immortal corpse!"

The elders were shocked and delighted at the same time-- Recommended new work by a friend, "Gotcha", a horror infinite flow, with suspense and reasoning as the main theme. The first volume has already been completed and can be collected for slaughter!

PS. Today's two chapters have exceeded ten thousand words, which can be considered as an outbreak.
