Chapter 709 Competitors
After saving Qingxue who was trapped in an illusion, he expressed his gratitude incoherently.

"Don't thank me so quickly, you still have some things to deal with." Liu Sheng said calmly.

Then he pulled Qingxue into the carriage.

After a while, Taibai Sword Immortal outside heard bursts of suppressed cries of pain coming from the carriage.

When he thought of the girl's appearance just now, he couldn't help but shudder and rubbed the goose bumps under his thin clothes.

On this heavenly road, even he would feel the chill creeping into his body.

This kind of cold is not real cold, but the condensation of strange energy and the awe-inspiring feeling caused by the instinct of fear.

Who could have imagined that the Heavenly Road, which was once clearly divided into black and white and as sacred as a pilgrimage road, would now become so horrible.

However, for Liu Sheng, this is also a treasure land for cultivation.

Relying on the warm and strange atmosphere here, Skynet is gradually spreading towards the southern part of the Tang Kingdom. According to Liu Sheng, it should be spread throughout the Tang Kingdom by mid-October.

The screams of pain in the car finally stopped.

After a moment, Liu Sheng's voice sounded calmly: "Okay, come in."

Taibai Sword Immortal got into the carriage, and the warmth finally returned to his body.

The carriage was filled with a strong smell of blood, but there was not a drop of blood. It seemed that "Mom" had swallowed it all without wasting a single drop.

The rescued girl was huddled in a corner of the carriage, wrapped in a heavy cloak, breathing quietly.

She was as pale as paper, almost dead.

Only her slightly trembling eyelashes proved that she was still alive.

"Have a drink."

Taibai Sword Immortal took a jar of pear blossom wine from the ghost baby in the pear tree next to him and handed it to the girl.

Liu Sheng did not object.

Pear blossom wine is not an ordinary wine, it may even have a pain-relieving effect for this girl.

After hearing these words, the girl, who had her eyes tightly closed, opened them with difficulty and looked at the kind old man in front of her.

Then, he slowly stretched out his almost skeletal hand and took the wine bowl tremblingly.

As soon as he poured it into his mouth, he choked and coughed a few times.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, this is the concentrated version that I recently developed. The previous pear blossom wine was too light..." Taibai Sword Immortal smiled while twirling his beard.

Liu Sheng: "...You must have drunk too much."

The girl said softly: "It's okay... I'm used to... drinking..."

Then she swallowed it in one gulp.

Taibai Sword Immortal immediately clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Young lady has a good alcohol tolerance."

After drinking the wine, Qingxue finally felt a sense of warmth rising up her body, and strangely, the itchy and numb feeling like ants crawling caused by taking the Shengji Yugu Pills was not so uncomfortable anymore.

Her spirit seemed to have recovered a little, and everything in front of her was no longer so blurry.

Only then did they officially exchange names.

Only then did I know that this powerful girl Ling Sheng was also heading to the snowy mountains.

But it is easy to understand that in today's world, most people who dare to take this dangerous road to heaven do so for only one purpose - to climb the snow-capped mountains.

It’s just that Qingxue had always thought that she was the leader among the younger generation of Tianque Sect, but she didn’t expect that Miss Ling Sheng was much better than her.

Following her all the way, Qingxue almost never needed to leave the warm carriage, nor did she have to worry about the endless strange creatures outside.

Moreover, the speed of this carriage was not slow at all, unlike many carriages or other means of transportation that could hardly move once they entered the Heavenly Road.

She even saw that Xuanzhou's land and sea dual-purpose ship was eventually stranded on this sky road filled with the abyss sea, and finally had to abandon the ship and walk.

However, there is another reason why most people choose to walk - what if they fail to observe the surrounding situation while in the car and fail to avoid strange creatures in time, wouldn't that be more dangerous?

But Miss Ling Sheng never seemed to worry about this. And along the way, she did not encounter any danger, as if she had an ability to see everything outside.

It was this ability that enabled Miss Ling Sheng to discover in time that Qingxue was trapped in an illusion and save her.

Qingxue also told Ling Sheng about the disappearance of her junior fellow apprentice. Ling Sheng agreed to help and accurately described the appearance of her junior fellow apprentice - fair and tender, like a glutinous rice dumpling.

"I can calculate it by counting on my fingers." Miss Ling Sheng explained with a smile.

Qingxue was so surprised that she admired Miss Ling Sheng even more.

After staying in the carriage for a day, sleeping and drinking, the injuries on his body seemed to have healed a lot.

Ling Sheng looked at her condition and said calmly, "It is estimated that your skin and flesh will be fully recovered in two days."

"Fortunately, the elixirs you brought are all of high quality. You are indeed worthy of being a disciple of a large sect."

When Ling Sheng helped her put her cape in order, she also praised her.

Taibai Sword Immortal was not there at the moment, he was said to be out fishing and keeping watch.

Although I don’t quite understand what fish there is to catch in this situation.

Qingxue's face flushed slightly. She didn't dare to say that she had so many high-level elixirs because she wanted to protect her junior brother.

As a result, my junior brother is missing now.

"I haven't seen your junior brother yet." Miss Ling Sheng seemed to see Qingxue's thoughts and said lightly.

Qingxue frowned: "Why don't I go down and look for it too..."

At this time, the voice of Taibai Sword Immortal came in: "Don't worry, what Shengsheng can see is definitely more comprehensive than what you see outside."

"And I'm keeping an eye on them! But then again, the fish here are a bit weird and hard to catch..."

Miss Ling Sheng also said: "You can't move rashly. If you don't want to become a ghost, although becoming a ghost is also an option, I'm afraid it will affect your subsequent participation in the Snow Mountain selection..."

Miss Ling Sheng's words were somewhat shocking, but Qingxue still understood the last part.

So she didn't move. After all, with her cultivation level at the Mingzhen realm and the serious injuries she suffered, she was not enough to survive on this heavenly road.

She was not selfless enough to be willing to sacrifice her life for her junior fellow apprentice.

It’s still for yourself.

Otherwise, she would not have resolutely left her hometown and tried her best to be admitted to the Tianque Sect.

However, she really couldn't understand why Miss Ling Sheng had such a high level of cultivation - in her estimation, she should be in the Dongxuan realm, or at least in the late Mingzhen realm. Why did she come to compete with them for this menial position?
However, what made her even more desperate was what she saw next.

"Ms. Ling Sheng...Excuse me, are you reading "Theory of Cultivation"? " Qingxue's voice trembled slightly.

The other person nodded without raising his head.

Qingxue asked again: "Is it... the article written by Elder Nangong?"

The other party continued to nod, calculating something with his hands.

Qingxue swallowed her saliva and spoke with some difficulty: "Are you deducing the formula here..."

"Of course," Miss Ling Sheng's voice remained calm, as if this was just a trivial matter in life, "These styles are very innovative and inspiring to me. They are very interesting."

Qingxue was stunned. Miss Ling Sheng could actually call something that she couldn't understand at all "interesting"?
Miss Ling Sheng seemed to sense Qingxue's doubts and handed the verification paper in her hand to her.

"However, I always feel that there are some problems here." Miss Ling Sheng paused and continued, "If there were no such problems, Elder Nangong's article should have moved from conjecture to verification long ago. Look here, if this formula is solved with another method, this value can be obtained..."

As Qingxue listened, she felt a roar in her head, as if a violent storm was sweeping over.

My vision almost went dark and I almost fainted.

Why do I have to wake up now?
If I were still as confused as I was yesterday, would I not be able to feel this terrible chasm?

She wouldn't know that one of her competitors had a higher level of cultivation than her, and a smarter brain than her...

No, they don't consider you as a competitor at all.

Qingxue felt hopeless as she looked at Miss Ling Sheng who was patiently explaining the formula to her. She suddenly realized this fact which was as hopeless as the abyss.
