Chapter 39: Ten Thousand Years of Corpse
While escaping in the light, Xuyang felt the weak and boneless body trembling slightly, and suddenly said:
"Your actions just now were extremely abrupt, but what are you hiding? I don't lack maids and concubines."
"Senior, please understand. I am truly loyal to you. I have figured it out. You saved my life outside the market last time. I would be willing to work like a slave to repay you. Moreover, I do not have much sense of belonging in Luoyun Sect. Not only has an elder master coveted my jade marrow body, but he has also tried to give me as a gift to the old demon Sanyang of Tianluo Country more than once in recent years."
"In recent years, that uncle-master has even blatantly ordered the monks to pester me, which has made me extremely anxious. Moreover, if I return to the sect this time and leak the information about the Holy Mountain, I will surely be in danger of death. I don't have the idea of getting more after getting something, I just hope that you can have some mercy on me and not use me as a furnace to extract essence, but let me have a place to practice."
The woman surnamed Mu was held in Xuyang's arms. She suppressed her shyness but answered stubbornly.
"Yes, the body of chalcedony. So, apart from your brother, you don't have any relatives, friends, or elders in Yunmeng Mountain? I remember you said last time that there was an ancestor named Master Qianmu, and he didn't help you?"
Xuyang asked with a strange look on his face.
"Last time, I was desperate to beg for mercy. In fact, that great-uncle was extremely cold and we were not close. From childhood to adulthood, all the opportunities and spiritual medicines I had obtained were obtained through my own sword and knife, and I don't owe the sect anything. As for my younger brother, my parents died early, and from childhood to adulthood, most of the spiritual medicines and magical tools he needed from Qi training to Dan formation were provided by me. This time, I am begging for him, which is worthy of the poisonous oath that my parents forced me to swear before they died."
The woman surnamed Mu replied in a soft but firm tone.
But in fact, she was about to face an unknown situation, and she was quite uncertain deep down in her heart. She was bullied by the sect in front and regarded as a bargaining chip by the sect. She was also under pressure from Xuyang from the back. She could only surrender herself to him and gamble on Xuyang's character. This was the only way she could think of at the moment.
Female cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation, unless they have the protection of their master or elders, or have made great achievements in their own cultivation, are bound to go with the flow, or even be used as a cauldron for sexual intercourse, and end up in a miserable situation.
Of course, male cultivators are not much stronger than female cultivators. In order to obtain resources to maintain their cultivation, who isn't running around and working hard to gain a few pieces of spirit?
If you have better qualifications, you can join a sect and have a stable and safe place to practice. Unless you encounter a large-scale war, you can practice in peace for a period of time after building your foundation.
If one's aptitude or circumstances are slightly worse, he will become a casual cultivator, living in constant fear, running around, trying to pick up opportunities in deep mountains and swamps that the big sects don't value, and he also has to worry about encountering evil cultivators.
But the world of cultivating immortals is so dark. High-level cultivators act according to their own moral limits. Those with better character will take care of their sect and family, while the more ruthless ones will even sacrifice the blood of their loved ones for the sake of their own cultivation.
"Yes. From now on you are my maid. You can just call me Young Master. You will get to know me in the days ahead."
After returning to Chaos Star Sea, Xuyang really needed a spokesperson in the human world. If this girl stayed in Tianxing City and could help him collect ancient books and rare materials, it would be much easier. After all, Xuyang himself didn't dare to go to Tianxing City.
Moreover, when this woman arrived there, she was unfamiliar with the place and could only rely on Xuyang. Her understanding of him was only superficial, and she knew nothing about his origins and identity. It was very suitable and safe.
"The teleportation array cannot be leaked. Even with the forbidden magic, it is not safe. If she falls into the hands of a top-level cultivator, she will be exposed if her soul is searched. Well, at that time, we can only knock her out and seal off her five senses, and then take her over."
After thinking for a while, Xuyang tried to comfort her a little, then asked, "Do you know a place called Green Trace Swamp near Yunmeng Mountain?"
"My lord, there is indeed a place called Green Swamp, which is hundreds of miles away from the Luoyun Sect's headquarters. However, the spiritual energy here is not strong, and there are not even a few monsters. Why are you asking about such a place?"
The woman surnamed Mu gradually calmed down after listening to Xuyang's gentle words. She looked up and replied obediently, with a little expectation for the future rising in her heart.
At this moment, Xuyang felt something and lowered his head to meet her gaze. Seeing the beautiful woman whose eyelashes were trembling and trying to avoid him in panic, he smiled slightly:
"Don't ask too many questions, just show the way."
With a beautiful woman in his arms, time passed quickly. Xuyang did not follow the example of Old Demon Han and try to appreciate grapes in broad daylight.
Along the way, they casually asked a few questions about the customs and practices of Yunmeng Mountain. After a meal, the two of them passed countless peaks of different heights, and a low basin appeared in their field of vision. It was full of swamps, filled with moist pink mist, and dotted with scattered low shrubs. "Is this the Green Trace Swamp?"
"To answer your question, this is one of the few swamps in Yunmeng Mountain, and it is the only one closest to Luoyun Sect. The other two are near Baiqiaoyuan, which is tens of thousands of miles away from Luoyun Sect."
Mu Nianxi responded respectfully.
This pink mist all over the ground might be as dangerous as avoiding snakes and scorpions for low-level immortal cultivators, but the two of them were at least in the early stage of Jindan, so they naturally did not take the miasma seriously.
In fact, when Xuyang entered the Yunmeng Mountains just now, the jade pendant already knew all the immortal cultivators around him.
Five hundred miles to the south of here is the headquarters of Luoyun Sect, which is the last of the three sects in Yunmeng. There are two Nascent Souls and dozens of Core Formation Sects, one in the middle and one in the primary stages, all concentrated in that area.
And right in the center of this swamp, an alien creature had already appeared in the jade pendant's search.
Twenty thousand miles of searching: Ten thousand year old corpse goblin in the middle stage of Nascent Soul (1) Human in the middle stage of Nascent Soul (4) Human in the early stage of Nascent Soul (7). Discovered the origin of the true spirit: Phoenix feather.
Although the range of the spiritual power of a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul is only two hundred miles, which is similar to Xuyang's, but after all, he is doing trouble at someone's doorstep, so it is better to keep a low profile. Xuyang did not delay and went straight to a huge mountain on the edge of the swamp.
The mountain was thousands of feet high and the top was not visible. Facing them was a steep black cliff. Xuyang scanned the mountain with his tentative divine sense and found that the black rocks inside the mountain could actually block his divine sense.
He tried to grab it hard with his hands, but with Xuyang's ninth-level physique, he could only grab a few feet.
This is quite interesting. It seems that Gu Xiu really put in a lot of effort to imprison this corpse goblin.
From the coordinates displayed by the jade pendant, it can be determined that the corpse goblin is in the center of a giant mountain hundreds of feet deep in the mountain wall!
Xuyang didn't know the earth escape technique, so he could only make quick decisions to avoid any complications. He opened his mouth slightly, and with a "woo" sound, a three-inch red flame cone appeared in the swirling runes, and he also spit out a dragon flame to bless it.
A purple, red and white halo suddenly burst out from the red flame cone. The terrifying spiritual pressure from the halo almost made Mu Nianxi breathless. She looked horrified. When had she ever seen a magic weapon with such power and momentum? She hurriedly cast several layers of shields and retreated more than ten steps.
In an instant, the temperature around rose to a terrifying level.
"go!"
With a light shout, the red flame cone, carrying a three-color halo, crashed into the black stone wall.
With just a slight contact, the stone wall melted away inch by inch, and a deep hole of several feet was easily blasted out. Xuyang drilled into the deep hole without hesitation, and with the red flame cone leading the way, he rushed straight to the location of the corpse goblin and quickly approached it.
Mu Nianxi was stunned, and hurriedly followed from a distance, keeping a distance of several dozen feet from Xuyang.
Thanks to the authentic black-haired shepherd for the reward.
