If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 861: Meeting an old friend in Chixiao Palace

Another two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Xiaoyu has made some progress in studying the sleepyhead, but he is still a long way from completely controlling it.

With no other options, she could only temporarily put away the insect beans, planning to find a secret book on controlling poisonous insects to study after she had survived the heavenly tribulation.

At this time, midsummer has already passed the road, and the ears of wheat in the roadside rice fields have turned autumn yellow.

Xi Juan pulled the cart for nearly three thousand five hundred miles.

If he were just an ordinary person, pulling a cart for dozens of miles every day would be like being a superman.

Even the "Bed Brother" who rides a bicycle and takes modern roads can't stand it and has to switch to riding a motorcycle.

But Xi Juan is a human immortal!

If he wasn't afraid of shaking his mother to death, he would pull the cart and run as fast as he could, easily covering three to five hundred miles a day.

At first, he did walk very fast. When he first left Xiaoxi Village, he could run more than a hundred miles a day.

After he became Wuyazi's disciple, his speed began to slow down.

He only had one head, and he had to memorize the books, ponder the teachings of sages, and silently practice his inner strength while pulling the cart. His speed must have been very slow.

Just like the normal walking speed, it must be much faster than walking while looking down at the phone.

Xi Juan is not playing with his cell phone. He is at school, doing math problems, and reciting the Four Books and Five Classics.

Later, he deliberately slowed down, wanting to learn more about military tactics and Taoism from Master Wuyazi.

Well, Xiaoyu taught him his "Yu Family Five Elements Escape Technique".

The Five Elements Escape Technique is actually a true immortal technique, but he has already condensed the human immortal essence pill. He only practices the technique, not the immortal qi.

However, the widow had practiced the "Second Set of Radio Gymnastics" well, and had been diligently taking care of the daily life and diet of "Master Wuyazi", as if she were serving a teacher. Xiaoyu taught her the Five Elements Escape Technique.

The widow does not have immortal bones, so she probably cannot become an immortal, but she can definitely prolong her life.

The key is that her son also practices the "Five Elements Escape Technique". The mother and son can confirm each other: Xi Juan only practices magic, and the widow only practices internal skills. The combination of the two is a complete true immortal method.

Common Taoist methods such as earth escape, water escape, water avoidance, fire evasion, fire control, and water control are all included in the Five Elements Escape Technique.

Before Xiaoyu entered the Southern Continent, her "Five Elements Escape Technique" was just a formality.

After being tortured with a lot of immortal arts and Taoist techniques at the Great Wall and the Dragon Palace in Daze, she basically completed the "Yu Clan Five Elements Escape Technique". It is still a little short of the "Earth Immortal Technique" (also known as the Golden Elixir), but it can definitely be called the "True Immortal Technique".

If Xi Juan had not condensed the Human Immortal Yuan Dan, he could have cultivated to become an immortal just by using this method.

Of course, if he had not condensed the Human Immortal Yuan Dan, Xiao Yu would not have taught him any Taoist magic at all.

So as not to ruin his foundation and delay his path to becoming an immortal.

Just as she was very open with Gou Jiao and was generous in giving Gou Tianmen the fundamental skills, she never taught them the immortal skills.

As long as Xi Juan spends three to five years to master Master Wuyazi's "Five Elements Escape Technique", he can become the most standard and orthodox "extraordinary man in Pangu World".

He is not an immortal and cannot live forever, but he is far beyond the scope of human immortals. He can at least live for a thousand or eight hundred years and can use various magic.

Xiaoyu made it clear that once he accompanied them to his second uncle's house, their fate would come to an end, and it all depended on whether they could resume their relationship in the future.

Xi Juan wished she could just stop on the road and not go any further.

In fact, after he officially became Wuyazi's disciple, he would stop whether it was raining or sunny.

The widow also knew that Wuyazi was an "out-of-this-world master" who was teaching her son the Dharma. Not only did she not urge her son, she also told him not to leave too early.

Before, Xi Juan and his mother would take advantage of the cool weather to walk a little further before dawn. Now, after getting up, they have to follow Master Wuyazi to "attend morning self-study". The widow had nothing to do, so she also listened in and eventually learned a book on "Five Elements Internal Power".

After Xi Juan had roughly read through the Four Books and Five Classics, Xiao Yu really fulfilled his promise and shared with him the heavenly book that was "dropped" by the mysterious old immortal. The two master and disciple studied the heavenly book together, and sometimes the widow would also read it.

Xiaoyu was very generous and let them see it if they wanted.

If you want to read the heavenly book, you certainly can't pull a cart while traveling.

Xi Juan, who was immersed in the endless enlightenment of the great Dao in the heavenly book, became more and more unwilling to move.

But no matter how he procrastinated, as time passed, they finally entered Xue County, less than two hundred miles away from Teng County.

In fact, they were staying by the "Zhaoyang Lake" at this time, which could be considered to be within the scope of Teng County, but less than two hundred miles away from the county seat.

"This is a good place. The water spirit and water volume are not inferior to the mainland swamp. Even if you go to live with your second uncle, you should come here often to refine your energy and practice water skills."

Looking at the lake that stretched for hundreds of miles, Xiaoyu felt more and more that the Chinese land in Pangu's world was too magical.

Zhaoyang Lake is hundreds of miles long, but there are several large lakes connected to it.

The four large lakes, Weishan Lake, Zhaoyang Lake, Dushan Lake and Nanyang Lake, plus seventy or eighty small households within a radius of dozens of miles, form a small Zhoutian Star Fighting Array.

It is not an artificially excavated lake, but a completely natural one.

The lakes correspond to the stars in the sky, and naturally have the charm of a star array.

Ordinary people certainly cannot see it, and immortals cannot take in the overall situation and read the entire lake system at a glance.

Only an old Dragon King with great supernatural powers can understand it, but an old Dragon King may not understand the Great Zhoutian Star Fighting Array.

Xiaoyu happens to be a "young ancient dragon" who has done in-depth research on the Zhoutian Star Fighting Array (in addition to observing the Zhoutian Star Fighting in the Tianhe River, he also deduced the Tianpeng's powerful killing method).

Xi Juan also likes this place very much because the environment is similar to her hometown and is full of water spiritual power.

“Perhaps I will bring my mother to settle here. Even if I go to live with my uncle, I can’t always live in his house and be supported by him.

It would be nice if my uncle could take care of me while I am doing labor and military service."

This kid really understands it.

Xiao Yu pondered and said, "In that case, let's stay here for a few days. I'll take you into the water to familiarize yourself with the surrounding environment."

If it was the natural water system in the previous life, with Xi Juan's current strength, why would she need a teacher to familiarize herself with the environment? She had just arrived here!
But it is obvious that such a good body of water, how could it not be targeted by the Dragon Palace of the Four Seas?

Xiaoyu was sure that, not to mention the big lake, more than seventy small lakes with a radius of ten miles had also been occupied by the "Dragon King".

It is very likely that this is a small "dragon's nest", and I don't know how many old and young dragons are hidden here.

Xi Juan now plans to settle down nearby
This guy is really not afraid of dragons!
If it were Xiaoyu himself, when he changed back into the alias of "Yu Fengxian", he would deliberately avoid rivers, lakes and seas to avoid being targeted by the Dragon Kings.

She was not afraid of the Dragon King, but she really did not want to get into the big trouble and consequences that would result from slaying the dragon.

It was just as Xiaoyu expected.

The "Xingdou Lake Water System" is full of old and small dragons.

As soon as she and Xi Juan entered Zhaoyang Lake, they saw three dragon fish eating lotus seeds in the lotus bushes.

"Teacher, it's a spirit fish!" Xi Juan was a little excited, her hands itching and her mouth greedy, "Now I don't need to prepare bait, I can catch them directly."

Xiao Yu frowned and said sternly: "What did I teach you? The spirits of heaven and earth are no different from humans. You can't harm them at will."

Xi Juan said: "Teacher's teachings, disciples remember them in heart. But these three fish are very stupid, and they left the Dragon Palace and ran around in the lake. They are obviously wild spirit fish, and they will be caught by fishermen sooner or later.

If the fisherman can catch it, then the disciple can catch it too." Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "You have to promise me that before you are fifteen years old, you will not catch spirit fish or provoke the dragon clan.

Even if they provoke you, you must be tolerant first. "

"Why should I tolerate them? I'm not afraid of them." If the teacher talked about something else, Xi Juan would obey without asking the reason.

But he inexplicably had a strong sense of psychological superiority towards the dragon clan.

"I'm afraid you'll die young! When you're fifteen, you'll have mastered Taoism and martial arts. Even if you get into trouble, you'll be able to run away thousands of miles away without telling me. Don't you feel aggrieved if you die before you've mastered your magical powers?" Xiao Yu said.

Xi Juan hesitated and said, "Before I followed the teacher to learn Taoism, I killed the ferocious crocodile dragon. Now I am even more different than before."

Xiao Yu smiled coldly and said, "Come with me into the water, I'll take you to see the world."

She used the "Water Avoidance Technique" (actually it was the ancient dragon's great magical power, Tianhe Water Palace), opened a bubble, and sank to the bottom of the lake with Xi Juan.

After running for only seventy or eighty miles, the dark underwater world suddenly became bright.

In the pit ahead, stood a dragon palace shining with golden light.

Covering an area of ​​three acres, the palace built of crystal and colored glaze is well-arranged and magnificent, like a fantasy world in a dream.

"How do you feel?" Xiaoyu looked at the Dragon Palace in front of him with a serious expression.

Xi Juan blinked, looked again and again, and said hesitantly: "It seems to be much more luxurious than the Daze Dragon Palace."

"Pa!" Xiao Yu slapped him on the back of the head, causing him to stagger. "Idiot, did I ask you to see the scenery of the Dragon Palace? I was asking you about the aura of the Lord of the Dragon Palace."

Xi Juan felt a little aggrieved, "Disciple has not seen the Dragon King yet, and now I can't feel his aura."

Xiao Yu was stunned and asked in surprise: "Such a powerful aura, the dragon energy gushing out like a big sun rising from the sea, don't you feel it?"

Before she went into the water, she vaguely felt that this Zhaoyang Lake was extraordinary.

Its water volume, water veins, and the purity and richness of its water spiritual power are actually slightly stronger than those of the mainland swamp.

Dalu Lake is a section of the Yellow River. It is not a tributary of the Yellow River, but a part of the main channel of the Yellow River.

The Yellow River runs across the swamp!

The area of ​​Zhaoyang Lake is not as large as that of Dalu Lake.

At this time, they entered the lake and saw the center of the lake's water power - Zhaoyang Lake Dragon Palace. Xiaoyu was even more surprised to "see" the Dragon Palace as if it was a small sun covered by a quilt, and the sunlight was all pure dragon energy.

——This is an old dragon, with at least a hundred thousand years of cultivation, and more obvious "ancient dragon aura" than the Ao Dragon King. Its strength should be close to that of He Bo!

She immediately made a judgment in her mind.

As a result, Xi Juan, who was standing next to her, didn't feel anything at all and kept her eyes on the worthless crystal palace.

"I am a dull disciple. Although I have learned the innate Bagua from my teacher for a period of time, I am not very good at the art of looking at qi." Xi Juan understood that the momentum and dragon energy that the teacher talked about were not something that could be directly sensed by simply using the five senses.

"No need to look at the qi, don't you feel any oppression in your heart?" Xiaoyu said.

Xi Juan shook his head and said, "The Great Lake Dragon King has no ill will towards me, and I have no ill intentions either.

At this moment, my heart is calm and peaceful. No matter how strong he is, I will remain as calm as a virgin."

Xiaoyu wanted to slap him again.

——Fuck, you didn’t feel the oppression because your heart is righteous. Your master, I felt it because my heart is not righteous?

At least I didn't drool over the dragon fish in the lake, and I didn't keep saying "I'm not afraid of dragons".

"This old dragon is not simple. There may be some secrets hidden in the Dragon Palace."

There was a faint light flashing in Xiaoyu's eyes. He looked at the earth veins, water veins, and energy veins around the Dragon Palace, and secretly calculated with the "New 2.0 Innate Divine Numbers".

Several months have passed since Xiao Yu interrogated Daya Zhenjun about the "Hetu's Innate Eight Diagrams". He has initially digested and absorbed it and integrated it into his own "Purple Star Astrology".

Her Tianji technique has also successfully entered the 2.0 era. The computing power and accuracy have been improved by more than 50% compared to before, which is equivalent to directly replacing the 20 series graphics card with the 40 series.

"Something is wrong. How can a small Zhaoyang Lake have such a strong destiny?"

Xiao Yu's expression changed several times, and finally he said seriously: "Juan'er, hide in the water plants and don't run around. I'll go to the Dragon Palace to take a look."

Xi Juan was surprised and said, "Is it that serious? Zhaoyang Lake is only one of the four largest lakes in the entire Shuize area, and it's not even the largest one."

"That's why I feel strange." Xiaoyu said.

"What's strange about that? What did the teacher see?" Xi Juan asked curiously.

Xiao Yu looked up at the sky and said quietly, "There are dozens of lakes here that correspond to the stars, and the water veins are connected into one, which naturally has some of the charm of the star array."

"Well, the teacher also said that if you were allowed to dominate this area of ​​water, you could gather the water spirits of all the surrounding lakes together and set up a 'Hundred Lakes Starry Array'."

At this point, Xi Juan seemed to be thinking about something, and asked in surprise: "Could it be that the Dragon Lord of Zhaoyang Lake really arranged the Hundred Lakes Star Fighting Formation? Is this Dragon Palace the center of the formation?"

"No, he didn't set up a formation, but the water veins, earth veins, and water spirit power of the Daze water system all show signs of converging towards the Dragon Palace here. It looks like it was formed naturally, but I have some doubts in my heart."

Xiao Yu pointed in the direction of the Dragon Palace and said, "Look at the Dragon Palace ahead. There are groups of shrimp soldiers and crab generals coming and going very frequently. They seem to be strictly preventing outsiders from approaching the Dragon Palace."

While the two were whispering, two teams of ten people swam past them, but they were unable to break Xiaoyu's mirage illusion.

Xi Juan said: "Even if this Dragon Palace is strange, the old dragon may be hiding some secrets, what does it have to do with us? Why is the teacher so persistent in investigating it?"

Xiao Yu said angrily: "It's all for you! If you don't want to settle down nearby with me, you will probably still make a living by fishing.

It's wrong for me to explore the way for you first. I took you into the water, isn't it to let you know that the old dragon of the lake is extraordinary, to teach you to be awed by real dragons, and to be careful in the future and not to provoke the dragon clan?"

"My disciple now knows how powerful I am. Teacher, there is no need to take the risk of going to the Dragon Palace for me." Xi Juan said.

"I'm just trying to find out the situation. There's no danger. Besides, I'm also very curious. The Dragon King of Zhaoyang Lake seems to have a destiny—"

Xiaoyu's expression suddenly changed, and he raised his right hand and touched the tops of their heads.

A water line extends to both sides, spreading out a mirror-like water film.

However, her mirroring technique had not yet been fully formed, and her face showed complex expressions such as thoughtful, sudden enlightenment, and a lot of thoughts.

"Teacher, what's wrong?" Xi Juan asked curiously.

Xiao Yu turned to the west, his gaze seemed to span hundreds of miles, and he said with emotion: "I met an old acquaintance. He seemed to be watching the Dragon Palace as well."

Xi Juan followed her gaze and saw nothing. "Where is the teacher's friend?"

"About 500 miles away. He didn't go into the water."

Xi Juan exclaimed, "You can see this place from five hundred miles away? What kind of magical power is this?"

"clairvoyance!"

"Boom~~" Just as she finished speaking, there was a violent earthquake in the Dragon Palace in front. Waves appeared out of nowhere under the water, and mud and sand surged up, instantly turning the clear lake water around the Dragon Palace, especially the water above it, into turbid.

“Ang~~” Another dragon roar sounded from the Dragon Palace, and a beam of red light shot out, angrily saying: “Who dares to spy on my Scarlet Sky Palace!”
