"Little girl, why don't you leave here quickly?"
"who are you?"
The silver-haired woman was startled by the sudden voice and quickly looked up and around.
But what appeared before her was still a dark cave.
The flesh around me and the tongue under my feet were still moving slightly.
Although the devouring power has dissipated, a special airflow still remains in the mouth of Xuantian Hualing Turtle, making the place full of air and strange smells.
The surroundings were still pitch black, with only a hint of light coming from the gaps between the teeth of the Xuantian Hualing Turtle behind him.
And the colorful space crack dozens of meters in front of him.
In Baiyujing, Zheng Yi also let out a long sigh.
Bai Cangmu, Master Manhu and Chen Hu died together. On the entire Jueling Island, the only girl left was the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect.
It seems that if he wants to leave here, he must go through this girl.
I don’t know what level of cultivation this girl has?
Foundation building?
Or...Golden Elixir?
But seeing how sad and flustered this girl was after the White Cangmu died, I wonder if she has any experience?
But he had no choice. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to contact the little girl in another way.
The system is outdated.
What’s popular now is the old man in the mirror!
He deliberately changed his voice and continued, "Me? I'm in your hands."
"Ok?"
The silver-haired woman subconsciously lowered her head. In her hand was only the fragment of the bronze ancient mirror, which was emitting a faint light.
The silver-haired woman asked in surprise: "Are you a mirror?"
"Master once said that some treasures have spirituality of their own. Could it be that you are the spirit of this broken lens?"
"Humph! How can any weapon spirit compare to me?"
Zheng Yi snorted coldly and said, "I am a person from the spiritual world, but my physical body was destroyed by my enemies, so I had to hide on this fragment of the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror."
“As a last resort, I broke through the barrier between the two worlds, traveled through the turbulence of time and space, and ended up in the Canglan World.”
"People from the immortal and spirit worlds..."
The silver-haired woman was startled and almost dropped the lens in her hand, but fortunately she reacted quickly and held it tightly in her hand.
"You, you didn't lie to me?"
"Hehe, I have been in the spirit world for more than 10,000 years. How could I deceive a little girl like you?"
Zheng Yi continued to deceive, "If it weren't for this, how could I have broken through the blockade of the Absolute Spirit Island and sent the innate spiritual energy to the hands of those rubbish before!"
"Waste, waste..."
"of course."
Zheng Yi said coldly: "In order to return to the spiritual world, I have been secretly searching for people with sharp minds, hoping to secretly help you grow. Unfortunately, those monks before were either cowardly, or had poor luck, or were impulsive and adventurous."
"Even with my help, they still died one after another."
"Just now, Chen Hu actually wanted to throw me into the belly of this Xuantian Hualing Turtle. He deserves to die!"
"Fortunately, after so many years of secret training, I have recovered a little strength and can control the fragment of the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror to fly. Otherwise, once it enters the belly of the Xuantian Spirit Turtle, it will never see the light of day again!"
Zheng Yi was thinking and fooling the girl at the same time, telling true and false things one after another, and continued to fool the girl.
Under Zheng Yi's deception, the silver-haired girl gradually forgot about the death of her master Bai Cangmu, and instead thought about the news about the fragment of Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror in her hand.
She asked cautiously: "So, what are your plans now, Senior?"
Well done!
As long as you are curious, you will naturally fall into the trap that Zheng Yi specially prepared for him.
"Of course I want to return to the spirit world again."
Zheng Yi said: "But those powerful ones are all old monsters who have been around for many years. They are dark-minded and cunning, and I have been deceived by them many times."
"Now, I still want to accept a disciple with good spiritual roots and talents, and train him with all my heart."
"In a thousand years at most, you will be able to enter the spirit world and revive me!"
"So that's it~"
The silver-haired girl murmured, her eyes slightly brightening as she said, "Um... Grandpa, I wonder if I can be your apprentice?"
"you?"
Zheng Yi whispered, "Don't you have a master? The Bai Cangmu from the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect?"
"master……"
Speaking of Bai Cangmu, the silver-haired boy's expression became gloomy again: "Actually, his real identity is, is, my father..."
"Father?"
Zheng Yi was also surprised and asked, "Direct descendant of a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
No wonder the white cangmu has always been so caring towards the silver-haired girl.
Even in such a tense moment of fighting, we must do our best to protect the girl, and even when entering the mouth of the Xuantian Linggui, we must take her with us.
"Ah."
The silver-haired girl said, "My name is Bai Zhirui. My father said that my identity is somewhat special in the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect, and I can't let other people know my true identity."
"That's why he asked me to call him Master, and after taking me away from Jueling Island, he would return to the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect."
"I didn't expect it, wuwuwu..."
Bai Zhirui cried quietly, but Zheng Yi started thinking quickly.
White Lotus Eternal Life Sect?
The daughter of the white cangmu?
Descendants of Nascent Soul cultivators?
This identity seems very suitable for causing trouble.
When Bai Zhirui had almost finished crying, Zheng Yi immediately said, "Okay, little girl, stop crying. I can accept you as my disciple, but you have to promise me that after you have achieved success in your cultivation, you must take me back to the spirit world!"
Return to the spirit world?
For an ordinary cultivator to enter the spiritual world through practice, it would take at least a thousand years, or even several tens of thousands of years.
Even for a rare genius among millions, it would take hundreds of years.
The little girl in front of me doesn't look like a genius at all.
"it is good!"
Bai Zhirui wiped away her tears and said seriously, "Master... my father once said that he wanted me to return to the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect to compete for the position of Saintess."
"I also want to inherit his legacy and become the Saint of the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect!"
“Hahaha, okay…!”
Zheng Yi laughed and said, "Only when we have a goal can we have motivation."
"Bai Zhirui, are you willing to be my disciple?"
"As long as you agree, I will teach you how to practice with all my heart, and I can even give you some of the treasures and cultivation resources that I have saved up before..."
Bai Zhirui immediately knelt on the ground, holding up the fragment of Yin Yang Treasure Mirror with both hands, and said respectfully: "Master, Bai Zhirui is willing to take you as her master!"
"Hahaha, good!"
Zheng Yi said: "Then I will accept you as my disciple, my 8,858th disciple!"
"what……"
Bai Zhirui was stunned for a moment: "Master, why do you have so many disciples?"
"of course!"
Zheng Yi said proudly: "I have been in the spirit world for thousands of years, so what's wrong with taking in more disciples?"
"Then why don't you let those disciples take you back to the spirit world?"
"Ah... they're all dead!"
Zheng Yi reacted quickly: "Even if they are not dead, they are all hiding, and I can't find them."
"what……"
"Now you know how powerful the enemy I am facing is."
Zheng Yi asked back: "So, do you regret it?"
"No regrets!" Bai Zhirui clenched her fist and said seriously: "Master, don't worry. I will practice hard and enter the spirit world as soon as possible to reshape my body for you!"
"Hahaha... Good! You are worthy of being the master's good disciple!"
"By the way, Master, what is the name of our sect? What is your name?"
"I am..." Zheng Yi's heart moved, and he immediately said, "I am Xuan Cangzi."
Xuan Cangzi is the Taoist name Zheng Yi gave himself.
The Taoist name was derived from the Xuancang Realm, simple and clear.
However, to Bai Zhirui of the Canglan Realm, she simply felt that this Taoist name was grand and mysterious, worthy of someone who had been roaming the spiritual world for thousands of years.
"As for the sect, I will tell you when you reach the underworld."
"Telling you now may affect your practice."
"Okay... Master."
"Now, let's go through that space crack and return to the Nether Abyss."
"Yes, master!"
Bai Zhirui stood up and looked reluctantly in the direction where Bai Cangmu disappeared.
Then, under Zheng Yi's guidance, they arrived in front of the space crack.
Zheng Yi didn't know what dangers there were in this space crack, but over the past thousands of years, only a few people had escaped from the Jueling Island with the help of the space crack.
There must be many crises involved, and he is prepared for them.
"go in."
"Yes, master."
Bai Zhirui leaped forward, showing her extremely advanced lightness skills, and quickly flew into the space crack.
As soon as she entered, the fragments of the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror flashed with a green light, and then a scroll flew out from it and turned into a curtain of light, protecting Bai Zhirui inside.
Thousands of fantasy glass paintings!
This is the Thousand Illusions Colored Glaze Painting that Zheng Yi had already obtained, which is suspected to be a top-grade magical weapon and has extremely strong defensive capabilities.
Under the protection of Qianhuan Liuli Painting, Bai Zhirui successfully stepped into the space crack.
The surrounding area was filled with darkness and invisible strong winds. Even with Zheng Yi's divine sense, he could not detect too far away. However, he still carefully protected Bai Zhirui and flew forward.
After getting familiar with the situation here, Zheng Yi said, "Rui'er, Master will temporarily lend you this Thousand Illusion Colored Glass Painting. You can control it and continue to move forward."
"Let me control it?"
Bai Zhirui asked curiously, "Master, I have never practiced cultivation, so I don't have any magical powers."
"what?!"
Zheng Yi exclaimed, his mind moved, and Thousand Illusions Colored Glaze Painting almost lost control.
"What did you say? You have never practiced cultivation? Your father is a Yuanying cultivator, how can you..."
Bai Zhirui tugged at the corner of her clothes and said embarrassedly: "I, I made the sound on Jueling Island. There is no spiritual energy here. How can I practice?"
"Then you..."
"Oh, I practice the martial arts of the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect, which is also very powerful. I have now reached the spiritual realm."
Bai Zhirui said: "Father also said that my martial arts talent is one of the best in the entire White Lotus Eternal Life Sect."
The corner of Zheng Yi's mouth twitched. No matter how good one's martial arts talent is, without practice, it will be in vain.
"Then... do you have spiritual roots? The qualifications for cultivation?"
"Spiritual roots? Of course I have them!"
Bai Zhirui said: "My father tested my spiritual roots before and said that I not only have ice-attributed spiritual roots, but also a rare 'Ice Phoenix Body'. If I practice ice-attributed exercises, I will get twice the result with half the effort!"
"It's a pity that the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect doesn't have any ice-attributed skills. He said he was going to teach me the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect's core skill, the 'White Lotus Eternal Life Sutra', but..."
As she spoke, Bai Zhirui felt a little sad again.
"Ice attribute spiritual root?"
"The White Lotus Eternal Life Sutra?"
Zheng Yi thought quickly in his mind. Of course, he didn't have any ice-attributed skills in his hands, nor did he have the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect's signature skill, the "White Lotus Eternal Life Sutra".
But, he has... "The White Lotus Sutra"!
The cultivation method taken from the White Lotus Sect in the Xuan Cang Realm must be not much different from the "White Lotus Eternal Life Sutra".
"Okay, calm your mind and let me control the Thousand Illusions Glazed Painting."
Zheng Yi whispered, "But after this, I will sleep for a while to recuperate."
"If you don't have anything important to do, don't bother me."
"Okay, Master!"
In Baiyujing, Zheng Yi did not dare to be negligent at all. With the help of the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror, he controlled the Thousand Illusions Colored Glaze Painting to continuously pass through the cracks in space.
From time to time, he dodged the space strong wind or space turbulence. Fortunately, the Thousand Illusions Colored Glass Painting was strong enough. The space strong wind that could destroy everything blew on the Thousand Illusions Colored Glass Painting, but there was not even a trace of damage.
Even in the turbulence of space, Qianhuan Liuli Painting can protect Bai Zhirui from harm.
Just like that, we continued to move forward in the space crack, and faint white light continued to appear around us.
That is the exit of the space rift.
The aura of each exit is different, representing either the Canglan Realm or the Mingling Realm.
Zheng Yi did not dare to be careless, but searched carefully.
Finally, seven days later, a familiar white light appeared before his eyes.
The aura emanating from that white light was also very familiar.
The abyss!
"Get ready, we're going out!"
After seven days of non-stop concentrated flying, even Bai Zhirui, with her spirit and martial arts skills, felt a little tired.
After hearing Zheng Yi's reminder, he immediately regained his spirits and looked forward.
"Master, I'm ready!"
Under Zheng Yi's control, Qianhuan Liulihua charged forward and rushed into the space crack.
The white light suddenly grew stronger, and undulating mountains and the dark sky appeared before her eyes.
And Zheng Yi's spiritual thoughts also surged out like a tide at this moment.
In an instant, it covered an area of dozens of miles.
"Okay, this is the Nether Abyss, and it's not far from the Black Wolf Canyon!"
In his divine consciousness, the Black Wolf Canyon was not far away, but at this time the Black Wolf Canyon had almost become a dead end.
The appearance of the strange black fog caused all living creatures in the Black Wolf Canyon to be sucked into the Jueling Island.
No one knew how much time had passed before a market appeared on the west side of the Black Wolf Canyon. Many monks were active in it, monitoring the Black Wolf Canyon from afar.
What’s strange is that this market town is actually built on the mountain, and is guarded by a large city wall and formations on the outside, making it almost a stronghold.
There are at least tens of thousands of monks among them, all of them are ready to go, and no one knows what they are preparing for.
To the east of the Black Wolf Canyon, a large number of Nether Beasts and cultivators of the Nether Spirit Clan appeared.
Around the Black Wolf Canyon, a large number of corpses of underworld beasts, as well as a large amount of broken limbs and blood, appeared from time to time, and it was obvious that the canyon had experienced many major battles.
"Strange, what happened in Mingyuan? Why are there so many dead people?"
When Zheng Yi was wondering, Bai Zhirui shook her dizzy head and said, "Master, is this the Nether Abyss?"
"Where my father walked..."
"Ah."
Zheng Yi said casually: "There seems to be some changes around you. You haven't practiced yet and your strength is too weak. Don't act rashly."
"Well, when I was in the spirit world, I had several fellow Taoists with you in the White Lotus Eternal Life Sect, and I also have a portion of the White Lotus Eternal Life Sutra in my hands. You should practice according to this method first."
As he spoke, the fragments of the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror flashed, and a jade slip appeared in Bai Zhirui's hand.
"Is this... The White Lotus Sutra?" (End of this chapter)
