I am in the world of immortal cultivation, I am taming beasts and ascending

Although there were torches burning in the stone chamber, it was still dark, but it did not give people a sense of oppression.

There are patterns carved on the stone walls on both sides, but they are not clear because of the light.

After walking about ten meters, Mu Xingzhou stopped beside a stone wall.

"Master, I've brought people here!"

With a rumbling sound, the stone wall slowly opened.

"Big Brother, what exactly is in here?" Bai Xue asked in a low voice. Since she became an inner sect disciple, she had often seen this stone chamber but had never entered it.

"It's my first time here too, don't be afraid! I'm here!"

At this moment Liuyun really felt that he was redundant. Fortunately, Baixue, the silly girl, didn't know anything, so it wasn't too embarrassing.

Passing through the stone wall, the light gradually became brighter, not only because there were plenty of torches inside, but also because there was a one-foot square window above the stone chamber!

"Coming! ~Ahem" The voice sounded old and weathered, as if waiting for an old friend who hadn't been seen for many years.

"Master!" Mu Xingzhou bowed respectfully and stepped back to the old man's side, helping him to breathe: "Miss Ye is here!"

"Oh!~"

Liuyun was able to see the old man's face clearly. He had prominent cheekbones, gray hair at the temples, a dull complexion, and wrinkles all over his face that showed the vicissitudes he had experienced in his life.

"Greetings, old Valley Master!" Liuyun quickly stopped talking. He was really talking nonsense!
The old monster is not like the old immortal. The name of the old immortal was given by the master himself, while the nickname of the old monster was given by the world.

“Hahaha~” The old monster laughed to himself: “I am not an old monster, I am my great master!”

"." Liuyun was confused. She had always thought that Bai Xue and Mu Xingzhou's master was the old monster, but now it seems that they are two different people.

"Sister, this is my master, the temporary head of the sect, not the old monster!" Bai Xue muttered softly.

"Ignorance is not a crime. For hundreds of years, Xuhua Valley has been claiming that the old monster is in charge of Xuhua Valley. He just retreated behind the scenes and I am temporarily in charge of the sect's affairs, just like you Yueyang Mountain. However."

The person who is temporarily in charge of the sect's affairs is no different from the sect leader, so this person should be the miracle doctor Zhang Xuanhu that people often talk about!

"Even Canxue and Xingzhou don't know!"

The old man said tremblingly,

"The old monster is no longer alive. That was just a gimmick to intimidate the world."

"Master!"

Bai Xue and Mu Xingzhou were both stunned by these remarks.

They only knew that the old monster master was in seclusion and never appeared in the world, so of course they had never seen him before. It turned out that he was no longer in this world.

"I wonder why you told me the secret of Xuhuai Valley?" Liuyun suddenly felt that the matter was not simple and became cautious.

"Because you are the spirit of the Nine Heavens Phoenix! Ahem."

The old man was a little excited. Mu Xingzhou and Bai Xue patted him on the back and handed him tea.

"Fortunately, I meet you in my lifetime!" The old man's turbid eyes were full of hope.

He coughed twice, his lips trembling from the excessive force, and after a while he said,
"Xue Ning is not possessed by the devil. The Xue Ning five hundred years ago was not possessed by the devil! They are just looking for an excuse to enter the devil's realm!"

"You also know about Xue Ning?" Liuyun asked in surprise.

"It is the responsibility of every successive Valley Master of Xuhuai Valley to find the Nine-Sky Phoenix Spirit and inform everyone of everything they have discovered!" The old man stood up slowly from the stone chair, and Mu Xingzhou hurried forward to support him.

"I just wonder if Miss Ye is willing to listen to this story?"

"I am willing!"

Liuyun suddenly realized that she had never left Xue Ning since she was resurrected. Especially after she returned from the Cloud Wall, everything pointed to Xue Ning.

Xiangsui, Xinfa, Jiangnian, Hongxiu, Hehuan, Xuanyuan Canghai, no matter whether they are people or things, they all revolve around Xue Ning. In this case, she would rather uncover this mysterious story.

"Five hundred years ago, Xue Ning's evil spirit took over and he massacred more than thirty people in the Wen family mansion. Most of the immortals who followed the evil spirit were also killed!"

"Xue Ning fled with injuries. She didn't know that Fengqi Valley had been besieged by many immortal sects at this time. In the end, she was outnumbered."

"Do you know why all the immortal sects want to enter the Demon Realm?" Liuyun already knew all this, but there were two points he heard for the first time.

"Legend has it that the Demon Realm was once a land of no consequence, where the ladder connecting heaven and earth was located. Later, Gonggong and Zhurong fought and broke the ridge of the sky, causing the ladder to collapse! From then on, there was no connection between the human world and the heavenly world!"

"And the immortal sects got the news from somewhere that if they used the broken stones to rebuild the ladder to heaven, they would be able to enter the heaven and gain immortality!"

Liuyun suddenly realized that the immortal sects had asked to jointly guard the gate to the Demon Realm a few days ago, and it was probably for this reason!
"Did Xue Ning really massacre the people in the Wen family mansion?" Liuyun asked.

The old man shook his head and said, "The Wen family mansion is just a hundred miles east of Xuhua Valley. It is a deserted place and no one knows what happened. But the successive masters of Xuhua Valley never believed that Xue Ning was responsible!"

The old man walked with trembling and staggering steps towards a huge rock nearby, which was covered with a layer of white cloth.

He stretched out his hand and slowly uncovered the white cloth. What was underneath the cloth made everyone present gasp.

On the boulder lay a white-haired mummy, with brown skin tightly wrapped around the bones like wind-dried bacon.

"This one is the old monster!"

The old man was grateful and took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms. He poured the medicine powder into the cup and ordered Mu Xingzhou to pour tea into it and pass it to Liuyun.

"This story is not told by me, but by the old monster! The Immortal Sect has a method of empathy, but the people in my Xuhuai Valley are all weak in spiritual power. Only medicine can help us empathize! I wonder if Miss Ye is willing to drink this medicine?"

Liuyun lowered his head and looked at the brown medicine in the cup. A strong medicinal aroma wafted from the ripples.

After a slight hesitation, he raised the glass to his lips and drank it all in one gulp.

"For hundreds of years, your sect has not forgotten its original aspirations. Since you have come to find me, I cannot let you down!"

"I would like to thank Miss Ye for her help!" The old man bowed deeply.

Liuyun wanted to help him up, but as soon as his butt left the seat, he sat back down heavily.

The limbs were weak, the head was dizzy, and the eyelids were heavy, which was the same feeling as the image of Hehuan.

In a daze, I only felt Bai Xue pulling me into her arms, and then I knew nothing.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself under the eaves of the corridor, and all I could see was a pair of men's walking boots.

"Goodbye!" said the old monster.

"Trouble you!" the person on the other side said politely.

The old monster turned around and left with his medicine box. Liuyun also saw clearly that this was a Taoist temple called Guiyi Temple.

The environment of this viewpoint is similar to that of Xuhuai Valley, as both are located in a bamboo forest.

It was winter, and heavy snow was falling. The bamboo forest of the Taoist temple was hidden in the vast white snow.

The old monster walked on the thick snow for only a few dozen meters when he heard the bamboo forest in front of him rustle, as if there was wind blowing.

But he stopped and stared. Having lived in the bamboo forest for many years, he knew that this was not the wind!

I saw a patch of fiery red falling in the vast green mist.

It was a woman riding a phoenix. She was dressed in red and floated in the air, like a piece of willow catkins floating on the green bamboo.

Her black hair fell down like a clear pond. Although it was draped behind her head, when the wind blew, her hair danced with the wind.

Her bright eyes are full of tenderness, like duckweed floating on the water, with thousands of streams of light. She has a kind of elegant and noble temperament that captivates people.

Her skin is as soft as jade, and her eyebrows are as dark as distant mountains. She is indeed more beautiful than someone who has walked out of a painting. It is incredible that there are people in the world who are as handsome as pearls and jade.

The old monster was stunned.

"Xue Ning, the master of Fengqi Valley, comes to challenge Taoist Wujing of Guiyi Temple!" Her words were like pearls, and her voice was soft, crisp, and extremely pleasant to the ear.

The young Taoist priest standing in the corridor ran hurriedly into the temple.

Xue Ning took the sword in his hand and arrived.

Suddenly, she lowered her head and took a closer look, her eyebrows curved, and she smiled sweetly: "Little Doctor! There will be a fierce battle here later! Hurry up and run!~"

These few gentle words woke up the old monster. His face turned red. He tightened the medicine box on his shoulder and quickly hid in the bamboo forest.
