This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 66 When Have You Seen the Real Me?

"here it is……"

Xiao Heizi took two steps forward, looked at the mark on the map clearly, frowned and said, "Chaohai Ancient City, 800 miles to the east, was originally a prosperous place, but was later submerged by the sea."

No way, you can understand something so sloppy?

After thinking about it, ancient maps are really like this.

"Master Xiang, more than 30 scumbags just left. The news will definitely leak out. I can no longer stay at Yaowang Villa. I plan to dismiss the servants..."

Xiao Heizi is experienced in the underworld. He explains the current situation. The underworld villains will not give up, but will increase in number. He prepares to find a forest park in the mountains to hide.

Xiang Yuan nodded and prepared to go to Chaohai Ancient City. Now was the time to say goodbye.

"Young Master is a skilled martial artist, far superior to me... You should take Bai Wei with you."

Xiao Heizi's true intentions were exposed and he gave several reasons. He said that his fighting power was low and he could only protect himself, not his granddaughter, but Xiang Yuan was different. For another example, Sun Baiwei was proficient in pharmacology. If Xiang Yuan was attacked by someone and poisoned again, he would need someone to treat him to save his life.

Xiang Yuan looked at Xiao Heizi without saying a word, thinking about what had happened in the past few days, and directly switched to funny mode.

He grabbed Xiao Heizi's wrist and said, "Master, what you said makes sense. I agree with you, but you said something wrong."

"What's wrong?"

Xiao Heizi stared at Xiang Yuan blankly, his words, actions and temperament changed drastically, as if he had become a different person.

"It's true that you have low skills, but the scums in the martial arts world can't catch Xiang, so they will definitely launch a crazy hunt for you. You can hide for a few days, but you will be caught in the end."

"Don't worry, sir. I would rather die than reveal your whereabouts."

"Master, you misunderstood. I am not worried that you can't stand the torture, but I am afraid that you will suffer or even lose your life."

Xiang Yuan said with full of righteousness: "I will remember your kindness in my heart and practice gratitude in my actions. Since you saved me from danger, I should protect you. Otherwise, it would be like repaying kindness with hatred. What is the difference between being a human and an animal?"

It was a bit confusing and Xiao Heizi didn't understand, so he asked Xiang Yuan to explain it clearly.

"One sheep is driven, two sheep are let go, we are both going, why don't you come with us!"

"Ah this..."

Xiao Heizi shook his head repeatedly: "No, if I follow you, I will definitely be a burden."

"Isn't it the same for Miss Sun?"

"..."

That makes sense.

Seeing Xiang Yuan's upright face and clear eyes, Xiao Heizi cried out "Aba Aba" twice and was immediately moved to tears.

"Young Master is kind and righteous, and one day he will be able to carry forward the hermit sect."

"Li thinks so too."

Xiang Yuan nodded as a matter of course. Xianyuan, Xiang Yuan, Li Xianyuan is a good name. I will use it as my alias when I travel around in the world.

……

That night, Xiao Heizi dismissed the servants, took some money and silver, and left Yaowang Villa on three fast horses, heading straight for Chaohai Ancient City.

He has a skill of disguise. Although not as good as Xu Jixian's ability in making human skin masks, he can still make it difficult to tell the real from the fake.

Along the way, the three men changed their clothes and appearances many times, sometimes pretending to be merchants, sometimes pretending to be scholars. They were exposed several times, but they were never in danger.

The closer you get to Chaohai Ancient City, the more people from the martial arts world you see on the road. They claim to be disciples of immortal sects and set up checkpoints along the way, making it seem like they are official organizations.

The three of them walked and stopped, changed routes, and it took them six days to reach the ruins of the ancient city of Chaohai.

It was night again. Xiang Yuan stood in the mountains and forests. From afar, he saw a series of fires and scattered torches. He didn't know how many people from the martial arts world had gathered there.

"If not a thousand, at least eight hundred. The news has leaked out."

Xiao Heizi gritted his teeth in hatred: "It must be the thief Hongneng. He is the only one who has the map and knows where we are going. This guy is really good at acting and he fooled me."

"His acting skills are really good, almost catching up with Xiao Xu."

Xiang Yuan nodded and said to Xiao Heizi, "The road ahead is dangerous. You two wait here. I'll go over and take a look. If I can get in, that's great. If not, I'll come back to look for you."

Xiao Heizi nodded in agreement, not wanting to be a burden.

Sun Baiwei looked worried: "Xianyuan, this journey is full of dangers, you must not try to show off."

"Don't worry, Baiwei. I, Li Xianyuan, am not a reckless person. After we get through tonight, I will come back and marry you!" Xiang Yuan grabbed Sun Baiwei's hand and expressed his feelings affectionately.

I don’t know how many times I’ve touched her little hands in these six days, and calluses are almost forming on them.

Sun Baiwei's pretty face turned slightly red, and she punched Xiang Yuan on the shoulder with her pink fist, telling him to stop talking nonsense because his grandfather was watching them.

People who practice medicine in Yaowang Villa can also make poisons. She took out a piece of medicinal stone from her bosom, which can be used as a fragrance when lit. It is slightly sweet but poisonous. She also brought a bottle of antidote and explained how to use it.

There are many people on the opposite side, so poison them if you can, don't be reckless.

"What a profound friendship, Li will remember it."

Xiang Yuan chuckled and flashed into the woods. In the eyes of Xiao Heizi and Sun Baiwei, he had great agility and was like a ghost. He disappeared in a few flashes.

……

The ancient city of Chaohai has no connection with the Immortal Lord of the Immortal Realm or the Secluded Immortal Sect. At least in the historical records that can be found, the three have no connection at all.

When people in the underworld got the news that the descendants of the Li family had arrived at Chaohai Ancient City to take the treasure, they surrounded the entrance to the ancient city. They knew that there was strength in numbers, and they actually found a secret passage under the vast sea.

There is a guard post every three steps and a sentry every five steps. Not to mention martial arts masters, even a fly can't fly in.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and the bonfire on the ground swayed in the distance. The hero guarding the gate felt a chill in his body, and the torches in his hands dimmed a lot.

A figure jumped in the dim gap between the firelight, avoiding the guards on both sides, and passed through one checkpoint after another easily as if he was returning to his own home.

The uncle-master is still showing his power. Every time he helps Xiang Yuan, he does not say a word, does not ask for anything in return, and gives silently. He is a reliable and good elder.

Xiang Yuan thought of his uncle's kindness while moving forward in stealth. As I said before, there is a world of difference between the two sides. The Three Yin Book of Life and Death, a unique skill that deals with life and death, is unimaginable to the martial artists in this world. Xiang Yuan avoided all the guards, found a secret passage in the sea, swam for more than ten meters, and found an entrance at the end.

I poked my head out and saw another long path dotted with luminous pearls.

When we got here, there was no sea water around, but for some reason, there were no people from the underworld guarding the place.

"To be honest, we are about to pass the level. If we don't have the Eight Vajra Kings, we still need the Four Heavenly Kings..."

Xiang Yuan muttered to himself, as if talking to himself. He shook off the water stains on his sleeves and explored along the long path, and saw a thick stone wall. There were animal patterns carved on it, in various colors, with an ancient atmosphere, the same style as the Yama Gate.

In the center of the stone wall, there is an obvious groove, which is exactly the same shape and size as a jade bi.

Seeing this, Xiang Yuan was very sure that the Immortal Lord was an outsider, and the treasures here were also related to him. It was definitely not a trap set by some martial arts master to trap him here.

"I can't open the door without a key, so that's how it is..."

Xiang Yuan smiled and shook his head, and with a wave of his five fingers, a jade disk appeared out of thin air in his palm. He inserted the key into the groove, the mechanism opened, and the heavy stone door opened to both sides, revealing an extremely spacious underground palace.

At the very top, a ball of fire-colored cloud was suspended in the dome, with the figures of fire snakes and golden crows wandering inside, emitting golden and red light that illuminated the entire space.

There is a huge stone tablet in the center of the underground palace. It is empty all around, but its presence is extremely strong. With the help of the flow of light waves, Xiang Yuan can see clearly that there are a lot of densely written words on it.

There is a raised stone platform in front of the stone tablet, holding a jade-carved treasure box, which seems to have life under the flowing light waves.

The Eternal Lord has placed all his secrets here!
Xiang Yuan pondered for a moment, and when he heard the dense footsteps behind him, he slowly walked forward to keep some distance.

A crowd of martial artists walked into the underground palace, looked up at the fiery cloud ball, and exclaimed that good fortune had come. The stone tablets and treasure boxes not far away all had shining eyes. Before they dealt with the heir of the Li family, they began to be wary of their friends.

"It's easy to get, Li Xianyuan, thank you for leading the way."

The crowd made way for a passage, and four warriors in white walked out, two men and two women, with great pride between their brows, all of them holding great power.

As soon as the four of them appeared, the surrounding heroes immediately became obedient and called them seniors of the Immortal Sect, but their eyes were still a little defiant and they looked at the stone tablet and the treasure box from time to time.

If I get this treasure, I am also the orthodox of the immortal sect!
There are many people in the martial arts world who hold this idea. The secret manual of divine skills is right in front of them. If they try hard, anyone may become the second immortal god. Although the four seniors are highly skilled in martial arts, they are numerous and have no shortage of close friends and relatives who can be betrayed.

The four of them understood this principle to some extent, and one of them stepped forward and said, "This boy has great skills and a sharp magic weapon. Let's take him down first, and then discuss how to deal with the Tianzun's treasure."

Seeing that the heroes of Jianghu were unmoved, another woman stood up among the four people: "The Immortal Sect only wants the treasure box, and everyone can see the martial arts on the stone tablet."

Such frank words immediately attracted the support of the heroes in the martial arts world. In an instant, everyone was united and faced the outside world together.

That's right, they all took a step back, and no one took the lead to charge.

How can I achieve anything great with a bunch of rubbish like you! x4
The four people from the Immortal Sect sneered and waved their hands. Two figures who were tied up were brought up.

Xiao Heizi.

Sun Baiwei.

Both men had injuries and it was obvious that they had gone through a tough fight before being captured.

"Li Xianyuan, why don't you put down the sword in your hand!"

Master Hongneng walked out slowly, changing his Zen staff, with a solemn appearance, still the same virtuous monk.

Xiao Heizi's mouth was bloody as he shouted, "Sir, please don't worry about us. You are an orthodox immortal with a bright future. Don't listen to the evil monk's slander."

"Don't stop talking, old man!"

Master Hongneng hit Xiao Heizi on the back with his staff, causing him to spit out blood.

Beside her, Sun Baiwei gritted her teeth and said, "Xianyuan, our fate in this life has ended. We will continue in the next life. Don't worry about me. I lit the poisonous cigarette. These bandits can't do anything to you."

"Young master, you must not put down the magic weapon in your hand. You will be at the mercy of others and it will be too late to regret!" Xiao Heizi said miserably.

Xiang Yuan nodded heavily: "You are right, I can't save you even if I put down my weapon. If I hold the weapon, I can still avenge you, so I can't let go."

"what……"

Xiao Heizi opened his mouth wide, and Sun Baiwei was also stunned for a moment. Then the two of them called out to Xiang Yuan urgently, asking him to firm up his mind.

You guys do it!
"You guys do it!"

Just as Xiao Heizi was about to speak, he heard someone speaking. When he looked again, it was Xiang Yuan sitting opposite him.

Xiang Yuan smiled coldly: "Li has obtained magical powers and treasures, and he can travel the world. There is no beauty that he cannot get. How can he give up a forest for a tree?"

Now, it was the turn of the people on the other side to be dumbfounded.

The four people from the Immortal Sect were quite unhappy. Xiang Yuan's contemptuous tone seemed to say that the four of them were fools. They all glared at Master Hongneng in dissatisfaction.

Master Hongneng was also speechless. He didn't know what had happened. What happened to the loyalty and righteousness they had promised to show? He glared at Xiao Heizi fiercely.

Why is he such an ungrateful person?
Xiao Heizi felt the most wronged. He turned around and glared at Sun Baiwei. You said that we were in love and that I would marry you. You said that we would be devoted to each other and grow old together. Is this how you do things?
Sun Baiwei looked around and couldn't find the next home, so she could only look at Xiang Yuan with a grievance in her heart: "Xianyuan, you are such a person, you... swore to marry me."

If you don’t know about this tearful and aggrieved girl, you might think she was abandoned by a scumbag.

"hehe."

Xiang Yuan smiled but did not smile. He said, "Go find Li Xianyuan." What does it have to do with him, Xiang?

Come to think of it, although it was to hone his acting skills, it was clearly a disadvantage for him to have been touching little hands for so many days.

"Master, when there are too many people, chaos is likely to occur. This drama is indeed wonderful, and I didn't notice it at first. However, as more and more people came, the plot became more and more clichéd, and there were more and more flaws. Their acting skills are not as good as yours. If there is a next time..."

"Forget it, there won't be a next time."

Xiang Yuan sighed. Everyone had a mask and was acting. They were wearing it and not wearing it at the same time.

"I didn't expect that you are also a hypocritical hypocrite. Today you finally stop pretending." Xiao Heizi broke free from the rope and stood up.

"That's wrong!"

Xiang Yuan slowly drew his sword, his eyes flashing with coldness: "When have you ever seen the real me?"
