Wet viviparity

Chapter 40 Chaos, Guancai Cave
A gust of black wind, like blowing sand and rocks, fell from the cave entrance, and the sand and gravel carried in it scraped the cave wall as it blew.

The wind seemed to have life, blowing east and west in the cave, and finally threw a flying centipede the size of a leaf into the medicine cauldron.

Ji Ming landed in the cauldron, stopped the evil wind, cleared out all the poisonous food in the cauldron, and then spit out two beads, one large and one small, one green and one white.

The white ones are naturally the precious eyes, which change with the body and become more and more magical.

Ji Ming had a feeling, a mysterious connection with the Treasure Eye. When he refined it with the ritual of sacrifice, he would surely make a huge discovery.

Perhaps, after refining, the shadows of the characters in his eyes will be able to be actively controlled, and no longer be as passive as it is now.

In the struggle for the great way, one step slow means every step is slow.

Although he has a precious eye, if he really relies on its power to travel through thousands of lifetimes, I am afraid that his desire to seek the truth will be lost in the world.

The green beads that were spit out were actually the white bone heart beads. They had been roughly refined, but had not yet been tried on humans.

With this magic bead, Ji Ming slept much more peacefully.

He returned to the cauldron, firstly because refining treasures was exhausting and he needed to come back to recuperate for a while, and secondly because he was afraid of delaying the time for changing food in the cauldron.

He already has the Dharma Pearl, so he can go anywhere in the world.

Well, due to the humanitarian law, I can’t go there for the time being, so I can only enjoy myself in the mountains.

Moreover, here with Yu Xiao, he can learn the knowledge of human cultivation through osmosis. Now that he has the magic beads with him, he is not afraid that Yu Xiao will discover his abnormality.

Yu Xiao came out of seclusion after only a few days of recuperation.

He hurriedly took Ji Ming and the Zhishou Snake with him, but did not even bother to check the abnormality on Ji Ming's body, and hurriedly rushed towards the direction of Shibai Village.

It was the first time that Ji Ming felt Yu Xiao’s panic.

On weekdays, as a disciple of Pan Ku and a follower of a witch, coupled with his extraordinary skills and cultivation, he has a great reputation in the Hengshan area and has developed a dignified demeanor.

But now this attitude seems a bit strong on the outside but weak on the inside, which is really strange.

In the medicine house, the other five disciples were already here. They looked even more distraught than Yu Xiao.

"fear!"

Ji Ming's tentacles caught the smell, the smell of fear that filled the room.

"Senior Brother Yu is here!"

When Yu Xiao appeared in the dormitory, everyone seemed to have found a backbone. They unconsciously turned towards him, instinctively looking for a sense of security.

"Brother, did you receive the message?"

"Ok!"

Yu Xiao's face was as gloomy as water, and he asked, "Is the master still in the village?"

"Yes!" Madam Zhang said solemnly, "The mountain gate has issued a decree. Master will give us instructions later. We will rush to Guancai Cave to fight."

Yu Xiao locked his eyes on Madam Zhang, as if he had found an outlet for his emotions.

"The Taoists from Heshan and Heming sneaked into Guancai Cave in Liling, intending to cut off the buffer road between Liling and Lanyin. Why did you delay in informing us of this news?"

Although criticized in public by Yu Xiao, Madam Zhang was not angry.

She knew that Yu Xiao herself was a man of great courage. In times of chaos, he would be a hidden dragon among the grass. However, if he met a legitimate immortal sect, even if he was a real dragon, it would be useless.

"It's not that she didn't say it, she just didn't know."

The witch came out with a basket, looking a little older.

"At the foot of Taiping Mountain, the Sibeiyun Temple in Heshan Mountain, and the Heguan in Hemingfang, they acted very carefully, and they were protected by the underworld officials. Even an old woman like me knew about this at the same time as you."

As she spoke, she looked at Yu Xiao with a hint of disappointment.

His disciple was good in every way. He was born with a talent for unorthodox methods and had a vicious temper. The only thing he couldn't keep his cool was when it came to matters of life and death.

Of course, the witch knew that she couldn't have too high expectations on a cultivator who was at the Qi Cultivation Stage.

Yu Xiao is already very good. If he meets a master with a compatible personality in Taiping Mountain, his achievements will definitely not stop here.

Ji Ming's heart was moved when he heard this.

Once in the old temple, the underworld official named Qu Lu seemed to have revealed this matter to Master Bonni.

Besides, the old man said, "A group of thieves are coming from the west and the north." Doesn't this mean that this big thing is coming true?

Come to think of it, I knew the inside story earlier than these people.

Ji Ming vaguely realized that the monsters and ghosts in the mountains had their own unique intelligence system, and he could intervene in it, get information, and not be suspicious of them.

This is very important, extremely important. The feeling of being an isolated information island is very uncomfortable, and Ji Ming has a deep understanding of this, otherwise he would not have been lurking here with Yu Xiao.

To put it bluntly, he has not yet escaped from the ranks of "illiterate" practitioners, and he has not yet figured out how to refine his precious eye.

"fail!
You have to work hard! "

Ji Ming thought.

"Master, our policy of keeping the people in check has been in place for a long time. The local people have long been accustomed to our control. How dare Taipingshan cause disasters so easily?"

"The scattered people from the thirty-six sects in the world respect it. Taiping Mountain is one of the three sects, the main vein of heaven, but there are more than three sects in the world. We in the side sects also have great powers."

Several disciples were talking to each other, as if to cheer themselves up. But in fact, in the eyes of the witch, they were just as funny as an ant talking about the vastness of the sky.

"All right!"

The witch was under time pressure and had a heavy task to accomplish, so she had no time to waste on talking nonsense. She simply pointed out the key points and gave instructions to her disciples.

"Taipingshan's actions are not impulsive, but a determination to change the old policies of Fangzhong. Don't be complacent. If you meet a Taoist in Fangzhong, you must take action first."

The witch's words made the disciples pale and their fantasies shattered.

Not everyone has the courage to face the immortal sect that dominates the five directions.

Among those present, only Yu Xiao and Madam Zhang remained calm and listened attentively to the witch's words.

"You don't have to worry too much. The battle this time is most likely to come from the two major branches of Taiping Mountain, Heshan and Heming.

As long as we don’t send in a True Person above the third realm, the upper limit of the battle will be limited to the third realm.”

Madam Zhang looked at her master with worry in her eyes and said, "Three Steps and Six Realms, you are still in the second stage of Qi Refining, and the five Qi in your chest are not yet complete. I am afraid that you were called back in such a hurry..."

"don’t worry."

The witch looked at her little disciple and showed a rare kindness. Among all the disciples in the room, she was afraid that only Madam Zhang knew and cared about her situation.

It is true that Zuo Dao has a cold and heartless nature.

“I have some connections inside the mountain gate, so I won’t be treated as a pawn.

Moreover, although I have not made much progress in my practice over the past few years, I have acquired more skills and can protect myself. But you have just entered the path of Taoism, so you must be careful. "

As he spoke, he took Madam Zhang's hand and said some private words.

"master!"

Yu Xiao wanted to know more, so he asked, "When the battle at Guancai Cave started, Taiping Mountain wanted to block our way back to Liling.

Now the mountain sect does not dare to easily provoke a higher level of fighting, so recalling you, a cultivator in the second realm, to participate in the battle, does it mean giving up on us, the disciples in the first realm of nourishing qi?"

"Yu Xiao!"

The witch said sternly, "Are you trying to shake the morale of the army?"

"Don't dare."

"Unruly."

The witch coldly rebuked him and said, "If it is impossible, you can retreat to the monk Dayou at Tubi Peak.

Although he is not a disciple of Pan Ku, he has many friends and is well-known among the wanderers. We are both from the left path, and we are of the same blood. He will definitely help you."

After hearing this, all the disciples in the temple breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not that they are cowardly, but that the enemy is too powerful.

It is one of the orthodox dynasties of heaven, dominating the five southeastern directions of the world. Immortals and immortals are born here in large numbers, and just a breath from it can make them tremble.

Each of them vaguely realized that the good days of these "local tigers" might be coming to an end.

After the "great god" Monk Dayou was carried out, the people in the temple felt a little relieved. Before leaving, the witch arranged for Yu Xiao and others to seal up the Taoist books and poisonous scriptures in the temple.

This is Pan Ku's secret. Even if it is just the first step of "nourishing Qi" and "refining Qi", it cannot be learned by outsiders.

Yu Xiao didn't know why, but he always felt that the iron-backed centipede in his sleeve was slightly restless.

The reason for this restlessness seemed to be the matter of the sealed Taoist book mentioned by the witch. He was shocked by the thought.

"master!"

Yu Xiao stopped the master who was about to go to Guancai Cave and asked in a low voice: "Do you have a method for offering sacrifice to insects?"
