As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1404
Chapter 1404 Xiao Clan Concealment
At this moment, after listening to Yan Ruyu’s words, Xiao Chen fell into deep thought. There weren’t many records about the ancient lotus in the ancient books. It was impossible to determine that the ancient lotus was in the Divine Devil Mountain Range, and it was impossible for him to let Daoist Qingdeng handle this matter.
If it was anything else, he naturally did not need to do it personally. However, this matter of the Ancient Lotus was of great importance and could not be neglected at all. Other than himself, he was worried that anyone else would do it.
Even though the Heaven and Earth Realm had taken shape and he was regarded as an Immortal Lord by the four forces, none of this was more important than saving Wei Yang.
“So you intend to personally go to this matter?”
Yan Ruyu looked at him. After a while, Xiao Chen raised his head and looked at her. “Otherwise, Palace Master will do this for me.”
Hearing this, Yan Ruyu was stunned for a moment. Then, he hurriedly shook his hand and retreated, “This, this is fine … Let alone Patriarch Feng Lin not letting go, it’s just letting go. I, a little girl, have nothing to do with running to such a terrifying place …”
“That’s the spirit.”
Xiao Chen stood up and walked out of the hall. “I don’t want anything to happen to Heaven of Nether Void when I get back,” he said.
“Don’t worry, this time, Heaven of Nether Void will definitely not have another accident …”
Yan Ruyu stood behind him and watched his figure gradually fading away. She didn’t have much confidence in her heart. Did he really want to go to such a terrifying place as the Divine Devil Mountain Range?
It was said that in the past, Emperor Moji, Blood Hand Tathagata … These legendary figures from ten thousand years ago had all fallen in the Divine Devil Mountain Range. Just thinking about it, she was frightened enough, let alone personally going to that terrifying place.
…
That night, Feng Qingyue Ming and Xiao Chen coaxed Xian’er to sleep before coming to the courtyard outside. The wind blew the leaves, the shadows of the trees swayed, and the sound of insects could be heard from the bushes at the corner of the wall.
Until now, Xiao Chen was still thinking about what Yan Ruyu had told him during the day, as well as what he had told Xiao Meng’er that day.
A person’s strength was enough to see as much of a world as he could. Thinking back to when he was only a small Xuan Qing disciple, how could he see such a vast world?
The heavens and the earth were boundless, and what kind of world did those people who had long since escaped from reincarnation see?
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and raised his head to look at the stars in the sky. Even though he had already stepped into the Realm of the Strong, this “Realm of the Strong” was only relative, not absolute.
Among his peers, in the eyes of cultivators of the Four Directions Immortal Dimension, he was naturally an expert. However, if one day, he could take a step forward and pass through the high clouds, perhaps he would see a stronger world.
At this moment, he raised his head to see the stars in the sky. How could he know that the stars in the sky were actually the brilliance emitted by the stars hundreds of millions of years ago? Perhaps, these stars had long since fallen.
The same was true of experts. Where were those legendary experts from ten thousand years ago? Whether they were like the stars in the sky, they had long since perished, but their brilliance was still visible to the world.
“I’ll wait for you at the top of Kunlun for ten thousand years …”
Suddenly, the voice of a woman that seemed to have come from eternity sounded in his ears.
“Uh” Xiao Chen suddenly felt a splitting headache. Who was it? Who was it? It was the woman in the layers of ice …
After a long while, this strange feeling slowly disappeared. The sky was still clear and clear, and the trees on the ground were still dancing. There were also bug cries coming from the corner of the wall. It was as if nothing had happened just now.
Xiao Chen slowly calmed down. Up until now, no one had been able to go up the 10,000-year-old Frozen Garden. However, why could he always hear the voice of the woman inside the Frozen Garden?
Perhaps, it was just an illusion …
He slowly walked out of the courtyard and thought about the Ancient Lotus. With his current cultivation, it was almost impossible for him to have any opponents in the Seven Realms, unless he was an expert who was only one step away from reaching the Eight Realms.
And he knew very well that if he met an Eight Realms expert, even if he was only at the early Eight Realms, with his current cultivation, he would not be a match for him.
Between the Eight Realms and the Seven Realms, it was as if a cultivator of the Seven Realms had met a cultivator of the Eight Realms. It was the same as a Foundation Establishment cultivator meeting a Nascent Soul cultivator. There was almost no chance of winning unless he used Dugu Tianxia’s Fiendgod Body.
This time, he had to be careful. The size of Ancient Immortal Realm and the number of hidden experts were far from what he could see. Perhaps, when he appeared in Dugu Tianxia’s body, he would be able to see a stronger world. But after all, that was not his strength.
Therefore, this time, he decided to find Xiao Meng’er to cooperate. It was definitely better than going into a terrifying place like the Divine Devil Mountain Range by himself. Even if he encountered danger, Xiao Meng’er’s lotus platform could still take him out.
“Fiendgod Mountain Range?”
A few days later, Xiao Meng’er came to Nether Void Palace from outside. When she heard that he was going to such a dangerous place, she couldn’t help but frown. She thought to herself that last time, he had said that he didn’t want to investigate the matter of the Celestial Realm cutting off the connection between humans. Why was he going to such a dangerous place as the Divine Devil Mountain Range in the blink of an eye?
Although she had just arrived in Ancient Immortal Realm, she knew where it was. Slow down, the two of them were experts whose cultivation had already stepped into the Eight Realms. Normally, they would not dare to take half a step into the Divine Devil Mountain Range without anything important.
“That’s right.”
Xiao Chen looked at the lotus flower in the pool and turned around. “According to the information Yan Ruyu brought back, it is very likely that the ancient lotus landed in the Divine Devil Mountain Range. Furthermore …”
At this point, he paused for a moment and pondered for a moment before continuing, “Moreover, late in the night, when I was observing the northern horizon, there were occasional phenomena. I couldn’t help but recall that there were similar phenomena when the rain and dew of the Immortal Dimension condensed in the Penglai Realm last time …”
Xiao Meng’er listened quietly. Focusing, he remained silent. After a while, Only then did Xiao Chen continue, “if that record in the ancient book are true, Then this lotus seed, Landing in the Divine Devil Mountain Range, “Right now, Ancient Immortal Realm’s spiritual energy is surging and it has undergone a 10,000-year transformation … then that lotus seed is very likely to condense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth just like when the rain and dew of the Immortal Dimension condensed. At that time, it will surely attract the attention of many cultivators of the Immortal Dimension … Of course, this is only my speculation. I will have to go there before I know.”
After hearing that, Xiao Meng’er didn’t immediately say anything. Of course, it wasn’t that she didn’t dare to enter the Divine Devil Mountain Range. She could go to Acheron Valley and Feng Yuntian, so why would she be afraid of the Divine Devil Mountain Range in Ancient Immortal Realm? However, the word “co-operation” naturally had to be beneficial to both sides, and that was what was called co-operation.
Xiao Chen could naturally see what she was thinking. He said, “If something happens to you, it’s fine to say it.”
At this moment, Xiao Meng’er frowned deeply. Even now, she still didn’t know if she should completely trust the person in front of her.
Xiao Chen naturally saw the worry in her heart. He condensed his finger and laid a soundproof barrier around the pavilion. He said, “The heavens and earth know what happened today. You know and I know.”
Finally, Xiao Meng’er slowly loosened his eyebrows and looked at him, “Do you know why I came to Ancient Immortal Realm this time?”
“Oh?” Xiao Chen’s gaze narrowed slightly as he said, “I’m willing to hear more about it.”
Xiao Meng’er took a deep breath and walked to the side of the pavilion. She looked at the gently swimming carp in the pond and said, “Many years ago, the Xiao Clan was originally the strongest of the six great clans, but in this world, what is everlasting?” Back then, an ancestor of the Xiao Clan had already been counted as the current situation, so he used his entire life’s power to condense an ancestral spirit vein for the Xiao Clan. But now, this ancestral spirit vein is almost exhausted … ”
“So your purpose in coming to Ancient Immortal Realm this time is to find a suitable Immortal World Spirit Vein and bring Spiritual Energy into the Xiao Clan Profound Realm in order to maintain Xiao Clan’s Ancestral Spirit Vein?”
Xiao Chen looked at her motionlessly. At this moment, he remembered that when Acheron Valley first met, it was no wonder that she wanted to compete with him for Spiritual Bloodline Force.
Xiao Meng’er said, “It’s just one of them.”
“Oh?”
Xiao Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly as he said, “Continue.”
At this moment, the expression on Xiao Meng’er’s face gradually became serious as she said, “Perhaps very few people know that more than 3,000 years ago, the people of the Four Seas and Eight Desolates joined forces to seize the Xiao Clan’s ancestral spirit vein. At that time, the Xiao Clan was almost in danger. Thanks to the help of a goddess from the Heaven Realm, they were able to repel the powerful enemy and save the Xiao Clan from disaster.”
“Oh?”
At this moment, Xiao Chen listened earnestly. He had never thought that the Xiao Clan would have experienced so many tribulations.
Xiao Meng’er sighed and said, “At that time, there was a person in the clan who had peerless attainments like the ancestor. The four seas and the eight wilderness definitely did not dare to offend him.”
When she finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at Xiao Chen. “However, these things have long since become a thing of the past. Now, the Xiao Clan doesn’t mention them anymore. Many of the younger generations don’t even know about these things anymore. From the moment they were born, they were all dressed in fine clothes and jade food. There are many things that they have never thought about before …”
Xiao Chen said, “Then why did you say this to me today?”
Xiao Meng’er shook her head and looked at him, “That’s not what I want to tell you.”
“What’s that?”
Xiao Chen frowned, not knowing what she wanted to say.
After a while, Xiao Meng’er slowly walked to the other side of the pavilion and looked at the lotus flower in the pond. At this moment, her expression suddenly became very serious. She said word by word, “It was more than 600 years ago, a peerless genius came from the Xiao Clan …”
