As the Universe Turns - Chapter 387
Chapter 387 Xuan Beast
“From now on, that’s not the case …” Luo Die did not quite understand his words and asked, “Senior, why did you say that?”
Luo Qinghe slowly turned around and looked at Xiao Chen. He slowly said, “Xuan was born in the first ray of sunshine. The sunrise, that is, the beginning of life, corresponds to death. Therefore, Xuan, there is only one thing to be afraid of, and that is … death energy.”
After hearing what he said, Luo Die was slightly stunned and muttered to herself, “So this exotic beast called ‘Xuan’ is only afraid of death, but …”
At this point, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Xiao Chen. At this moment, it was as if she had lost her soul and was stunned.
Xiao Chen’s gaze gradually grew deeper. “Senior, what do you mean by this …”
“Haha …”
Luo Qinghe smiled and said hoarsely, “Little friend, there’s no need to hide it anymore. This old man was the one who entered the coffin once. Since he died once, then I am very familiar with the aura of death. When you entered in the evening, this old man smelled the thick aura of death on your body …”
“What …”
Luo Die’s expression changed. He looked at Xiao Chen in disbelief. Li Youzi, on the other hand, frowned deeply. He remembered that day in the valley, when he fought this brat, there was indeed a very strange aura on this brat’s body, causing the surrounding vegetation to wither …
As Luo Qinghe spoke, he slowly approached him and continued, “Even though there is another thing in your body that contains boundless life force that suppresses this aura of death for you, how can it be concealed? The smell of you dying once …”
“He died once …”
Luo Die was even more shocked. At this moment, she was completely speechless. How could she believe, how could she believe that this man in front of her, what did he mean by dying once?
At this moment, Xiao Chen was expressionless. Did he die once? Did he really die once?
There were some realms that could only be attained after death. Could it be that this was the reason why he comprehended the Concept of Immortality?
But when did he die? Was it at the peak of Mount Qiong that he disarmed himself? Or did he jump off the Immortal Burial Cliff that time? Or … not long after he was born …
At this moment, his heart was filled with doubt. Every time the death aura surged in his body, he would feel as if he was already dead. It was as if there was another soul living in his body …
“Haha …”
Luo Qinghe walked in front of him and smiled hoarsely, “Little brother, tell me. This old man said it just now. Is it true or false?”
Xiao Chen slowly regained his senses. Looking at this extraordinary hunchbacked old man in front of him, he said, “Senior, why don’t you tell me the plan?”
“Good, good …”
Luo Qinghe nodded. “Na Xuan stood guard in front of Yang Valley, “As for Yang Valley, there are restrictions on the other three sides. No one can break through, so we can only follow the path guarded by Xuan. When the time comes, I and a few others will hold the Xuan Beast back. Little friend will find an opportunity to release his death energy. Although he is unable to kill it, he is afraid of death energy and is powerless to resist. Only then can we go to Yang Valley after the fog dissipates.”
“Wait …”
After hearing this, Luo Die suddenly rushed up and looked at Luo Qinghe, “Senior, what are you going to do when you enter Yang Valley? Tell me first, he wants the Fusang Flower inside to go back and save him. Senior, you can’t compete with him …”
Xiao Chen glanced at her and then at Luo Qinghe, “That’s right, I need that Fusang Flower. As for the other things inside, I won’t move anything. If Senior promises to do so, then Junior will naturally be able to defeat that Xuan Beast with death energy.”
“Haha …”
Luo Qinghe smiled and said hoarsely, “Perhaps little friend doesn’t understand what this old man means. This old man is saying that even if little friend alone has death energy, it is impossible to defeat Xuan Beast. Without the help of a few experts at the Profound Comprehension Realm, I’m afraid that little friend’s death energy has already been swallowed by Xuan Beast before it can be released …”
At this point, he looked at Xiao Chen and said, “So it’s not that little friend is helping us, but we are cooperating with each other. Since we are cooperating, then the things in Yang Valley will all depend on our strength at that time … Do you understand what I’m saying?”
Xiao Chen remained silent. After pondering for a moment, he sent a divine message to Li Youzi, “Senior Li You, how confident are you?”
Li Youzi’s expression did not change as he sent back his divine sense, “How many percent do you have, and how many percent do I have?”
“100%, 10% is not less. I have to get the Fusang Flower.”
“Alright.”
Li Youzi did not say anything else. Xiao Chen withdrew his spiritual will and looked at Luo Qinghe. “Senior, please lead the way.”
…
After an incense stick of time, the three of them followed Luo Qinghe to the peak of a mountain peak. Under the dim light, there were faintly five figures standing not far away. Judging from their auras, they were all experts at the Profound Comprehension Realm.
Seeing that Luo Qinghe had brought his men back, a red-robed middle-aged man turned around and looked at the three people behind him. Finally, he locked his gaze on Li Youzi and asked, “Is this the person Senior Luo said was necessary?”
As both of them were at the Profound Comprehension Realm, they were naturally able to sense the aura of the other party. At this moment, the five of them slowly walked up and their gazes fell on Li Youzi. Instead, they ignored Xiao Chen, who was standing beside them.
“May I know how to address this fellow Daoist?”
The red-robed middle-aged man looked at Li Youzi and asked indifferently. Their cultivations weren’t too different. They were all at the late stage of the Profound Comprehension Realm. Only Luo Qinghe’s cultivation was slightly higher than everyone else’s and was close to the Lower Profound Realm. Therefore, he could barely be considered the leader here.
“Li Youzi.”
Li Youzi looked at the crowd with a calm expression. Only Luo Qinghe could put some pressure on him. The rest of the people’s cultivation levels weren’t much different from his.
“Cough cough …”
Luo Qinghe suddenly coughed twice. He raised his palm towards Xiao Chen and said in a hoarse voice, “Fellow Daoists, you may have misunderstood. The person I’m talking about is not Fellow Daoist Li You, but this little friend Wu Chen.”
“Him?”
The five of them looked at Xiao Chen and frowned. They could clearly feel that this person hadn’t even reached the Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm yet. How could he deal with that Xuan Beast?
Another middle-aged Zi Yi strode out and smiled. Then, his gaze turned fierce as he pointed at Xiao Chen. His gaze was fixed on Luo Qinghe. “Senior, have you been playing tricks on us for so many days? This yellow-haired child’s cultivation is at most Soul Refining and Void. Do you want him to follow us to deal with the Xuan Beast? Do you want him to die, or do you want us to die?”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Chen again. He was probably angry with Luo Qinghe and said bluntly, “Child, this is not the place you should come from. Where did you come from? Go back where you came from, so that your parents wouldn’t die here and live for 20 years in vain!”
“You …”
Luodie frowned. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she remained silent. She thought to herself, you people are only at the Profound Enlightenment Realm, but you look down on others too much! If you were a person from the Lower Profound Realm standing here today, you wouldn’t be able to be respectful.
At this moment, there were still many people standing at the foot of the mountain. It seemed that the people from the gates on the mountain peak were also pointing at Xiao Chen and discussing something.
“Haha …”
Luo Qinghe smiled without saying a word. After a long time, he said, “Everyone, it’s better to listen to this old man’s words. If you want to repel the Xuan Beast, you must have this little friend Wu Chen present. Otherwise, even if there are another hundred people at the Profound Comprehension Realm, it would be useless.”
