Xiao Qiong had only been an adult for a few hundred years, and her understanding of the world and her ability to observe things were only on par with a child's.
Therefore, in her eyes, she couldn't understand why an old Daoist would fight with all his might, even to the point of mutual destruction, against a little rabbit with no cultivation.
Chu Hao chuckled, clearly observing the situation and knowing that the old Daoist would be fine.
So, Chu Hao pulled Xiao Qiong to the side and called out, "Daoist Priest, be careful."
Although, with Chu Hao present, it would be difficult for that old Daoist from the Tang Dynasty to die.
The old Daoist heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Chu Hao and Xiao Qiong leaving.
He had been very restrained just now, not daring to use his full power, precisely because he was afraid of hurting Chu Hao and Xiao Qiong, the two children.
But now…
A cold, stern light flashed in the old Daoist's eyes. A wrinkled talisman appeared in his hand, spiritual power flowing on it, making it clear that it was no ordinary item.
"Hmph, I didn't expect there to be so many fiends in Beiju Luzhou. Even these prehistoric demon beasts are so formidable. If I were to go to those billions of volcanoes to extinguish the powerful Great Witches, wouldn't that be harder than ascending to heaven?"
"But how could I, a Southern Leaving Immortal, let evil go unpunished? Evil must be eradicated completely! I'll let you see the Xuanlei Talisman of my Dragon Tiger Dao!"
The old Daoist offered the talisman, chanting incantations. Veins popped out on his forehead, and the magical power in his body was poured into the Xuanlei Talisman with all his might.
Then, the talisman turned into ashes. In the next second, a thundercloud gathered above the rabbit demon beast's head.
Rumble!
The thundercloud erupted, unleashing a powerful thunder storm!
Xiao Qiong frowned adorably. She always felt that the old Daoist's cooking method was too crude. Who would use a thunder storm to roast meat?
Seeing that the old Daoist seemed to be running out of strength, Chu Hao secretly sent a stream of spiritual energy towards the old Daoist.
Suddenly, the old Daoist's eyes lit up, and his whole body was filled with magical power!
He fully activated the talisman, directly obliterating the rabbit, leaving not even ashes behind.
Only then did the old Daoist breathe a sigh of relief. His face was pale, his whole body soaked in sweat, and he collapsed to the ground.
He had been fighting this prehistoric demon beast for half a day, and even many of the treasures on his body had been destroyed.
Fortunately, after the spiritual energy storm in Southern Zhanbuzhou, Southern Zhanbuzhou was rich in resources, and the old Daoist was able to refine this Xuanlei Talisman.
Otherwise, he would have been the one hanging here today.
After a while, the old Daoist got up and walked towards Chu Hao and Xiao Qiong.
Xiao Qiong held Chu Hao's hand and hid behind Chu Hao, muttering to herself:
"Brother said that when people give things, you have to say thank you, but that rabbit is so charred, Xiao Qiong doesn't want to eat it…"
The old Daoist came to Chu Hao, looked at him solemnly, and said angrily:
"Boy, do you know where this is? Beiju Luzhou! How could you be here, bringing your sister, to such a dangerous place?"
"You're so reckless! If I hadn't been here, you would have been finished the moment you encountered this prehistoric beast!"
Xiao Qiong was stunned. She could understand every word, but she didn't understand the meaning when they were put together.
Could someone explain to me, why would this Daoist priest call a rabbit a prehistoric beast?
Is… is that the rabbit's name?
Chu Hao didn't say much, but smiled slightly.
"Daoist Priest is right, but my brother and I have important matters to attend to in Beiju Luzhou, so we have no choice but to come."
"Speaking of which, Daoist Priest is a Tang Dynasty Daoist from Southern Zhanbuzhou, right? Why would you appear here?"
The old Daoist frowned.
"I am a Dragon Tiger Mountain Daoist from the Tang Dynasty, a Southern Leaving Immortal."
"I heard that the Tang Dynasty's Astronomical Bureau calculated that a crisis is about to emerge, so I came to Beiju Luzhou specifically to eliminate the great threat that is about to appear. Could it be that you two are here for the same purpose?"
Chu Hao raised an eyebrow.
"What Daoist Priest said, could it be that it was calculated by Yuan Shoucheng, the uncle of Mr. Yuan Tiangang, the Chief Astronomer of the current dynasty's Astronomical Bureau?"
"The Master calculated that Beiju Luzhou, being a prehistoric relic, will have a great horror emerge. If it is not nipped in the bud in advance, it will cause great chaos in the human world."
Chu Hao frowned tightly.
This was interesting.
This Southern Leaving Immortal's cultivation was actually already at the peak among mortals.
Being at the Tribulation Transcending Realm, he would be an ancestor-level figure in any sect.
Although Southern Zhanbuzhou had previously been baptized by Chu Hao's spiritual energy, and the strength of the Daoists there had also increased to a certain level,
This old Daoist's cultivation was already at its peak.
Even in the Tang Dynasty, he would be a powerhouse guarding a country.
However, because of the words of the Astronomical Bureau, he actually came to Beiju Luzhou alone.
This behavior was tantamount to courting death!
What was Beiju Luzhou?
A prehistoric relic!
The creatures within could even rival the powerhouses of the Three Realms, a place that even the Western Paradise and the Heavenly Court did not dare to interfere with much.
Yet, someone from this Astronomical Bureau had actually calculated it?
Moreover, what was even more terrifying was that he had actually calculated correctly!
Nine Phoenixes was about to be born.
Moreover, Beiju Luzhou was indeed a prehistoric relic, and a powerful Great Witch would indeed be born.
Chu Hao couldn't help but frown. What were Yuan Shoucheng's intentions in revealing this?
Seeing Chu Hao fall into deep thought, the old Daoist couldn't help but ask:
"Young friend, since you are also a cultivator, you should know that those who have achieved success should benefit the world. If you can go with me to eliminate demons, wouldn't that be even better?"
Chu Hao secretly felt a sense of emotion in his heart.
The Daoists enter the world, wholeheartedly serving the country and the people, even willing to come to such a dangerous Beiju Luzhou solely because of the Astronomical Bureau's unfounded divination.
After all, they still have a heart.
If this were replaced by the Western Religion, they wouldn't be so proactive…
Chu Hao said indifferently: "Daoist Priest's cultivation is not easy, but you don't know that since this Beiju Luzhou is a prehistoric relic, powerhouses run rampant here."
"Just a common rabbit has the Tribulation Transcending Realm, let alone the powerhouses that are about to be born. Daoist Priest, you should go back."
However, the old Daoist's face was very firm, and he said forcefully:
"Young people, you are the pillars of the future of the Tang Dynasty, so you should cultivate well and not enter this dangerous situation."
"But I, the Southern Leaving Immortal, travel through the human world, and it is my duty to eliminate demons and defend the Dao. How can I sit idly by?"
"I also know that this trip is not easy. Boy, come here. I have a method, the Immortal's Touch, which can prolong your life and help you cultivate!"
Chu Hao was stunned for a moment, his expression strange.
This old Daoist was quite interesting. He still thought that Chu Hao was just a mortal and wanted to give Chu Hao an immortal opportunity.
Chu Hao thought for a moment, but didn't waste any more words, and slowly walked towards the old Daoist.
Just as the old Daoist was about to raise his hand to give Chu Hao an immortal opportunity, he suddenly felt an extremely vast immortal aura, majestic for three thousand miles!
Then, he saw the white-clothed Immortal Monarch in front of him slowly raise his hand and gently stroke the top of the Southern Leaving Immortal's head three times.
In the next second, the Southern Leaving Immortal suddenly felt endless magical power gushing out from within his body, and he actually broke through the bottleneck on the spot, advancing to the Grand Ascension Realm!
Even more, it was rising crazily and rapidly, directly leaping over several great realms, and achieving Human Immortal!
Chu Hao: I stroke the Immortal's crown, and tie my hair to receive longevity!
