This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 78: Yellow Spring Saint
Xia Yinmei took a deep breath. She understood what he said and knew that there were many monsters and demons inside. She was already late.

If we leave now, our momentum will be weakened and we will be besieged.

Without thinking too much, she pointed a finger at the miner leader's vest. The latter's eyes flashed with a cold light, and his muscles and bones crackled like frying beans. His body grew taller, and his limbs became thicker.

Having sex with the witch from Ji Le Dao, the consequences were extremely miserable. The furnace and cauldron could be used in many ways, so the miner leader was considered to be straight in his life.

The leader of the miners led the way and strode into the formation, followed closely by Xia Yinmei.

"Brother, what should I do?"

"Hey, you are my dear brother now. You used to call me the second one."

"Second brother, what should we do?"

"..."

Xiao He was speechless. Now that he was already here, what else could he do? If he ran away now, would he be stabbed with dozens of knives?

"They are all evil and crooked. Don't be afraid. We are the same. Let's go in and broaden our horizons."

He took a step ahead and stepped into the formation, following behind Xiang Yuanjian. His eyes were hazy, but after passing the fascinating illusion, everything suddenly became clear.

In the center of the huge open space, sixteen silver-white chains were interlaced and arranged in the Bagua formation. The chains were as wide as an arm and went deep into the ground. They were not real objects, but energy illusions that suppressed the surging light below and prevented the strange treasure from appearing.

No one knew when the formation was set up. It had fallen into disrepair over the years and its energy was almost exhausted. The chains flickered and were unable to effectively suppress the light below.

Around the formation, several black shadows in the east and several black shadows in the south scattered in all directions, each forming their own camp, all waiting for the rare treasure to appear.

Xiang Yuan glanced around and saw dozens of people in total. They were not all wise men, but they were definitely a group of demons.

He sighed softly, what a Miao Heilang! When he gave me the map, he didn't tell me that this place was so dangerous.

Xiang Yuan felt a little unfair to Miao Heilang, because the latter was not a demon and was driven away before he could get through the illusion array. How could he have known that there were so many messy demons inside.

Xia Yinmei found an empty area and sat down. In front of her stood the leader of the miners, with Xiang Yuan and Xiao He on her left and right. She looked calm and composed, and others could not tell her depth, but she could be considered a force competing for the rare treasure.

"Hahaha, my friend from Jiledao, you arrived the latest, why don't you dance for us to make amends and liven up the atmosphere?" The old man wrapped in a black robe spoke slowly.

Judging from the voice, it was him who "invited" Xia Yinmei to come in.

"I have seniors by my side from Jiledao. I dare to dance, but do you dare to watch?" Xia Yinmei responded coldly. She remained calm in the face of danger, acting like a fox relying on the power of a tiger, and had some scheming in her mind.

The old monster in black robe said no more and did not continue to test.

He didn't say anything, and no one else said anything either, and the scene just fell silent.

The open space chosen by Xia Yinmei had an excellent view. It was illuminated by the white light from the chains. She looked far away with her peripheral vision and saw the locations of several black shadows clearly. Most of them had their heads covered, and the few that showed their faces were unknown whether they were real or fake.

But don’t tell me, there really is an acquaintance.

This man had a scar on his face, arms that reached below his knees, and was tall. He had met Xiang Yuan once before.

It's him!

Xiang Yuan recognized Scarface. Lin and Zhao villages were involved in smuggling, and Lin Baoyi died in the Small Moral Temple. Lao Liu took him to investigate the case and passed by Scarface. Scarface was not caught that night during the bandit suppression campaign and is currently wanted by the Six Gates.

Scarface comes from the Five Poisons Sect, so the force he belongs to must be from the Five Poisons Sect.

Xiang Yuan took a peek but did not see the barbarian girl from the Five Poison Sect who had let the snake bite him.

"Brother, those murderous people in the east are either from the Demon King Palace or the Blood Sea Path. The black-robed old monster in the south must be from the Yellow Spring Path. I can't guess who the others are..."

Xiao He whispered to himself, feeling secretly delighted: "This muddy water is interesting, and I can gather a lot of information from it."

Xiao He exclaimed that he had made a lot of money, and his optimistic attitude made Xiang Yuan admire him very much. Then Xiang Yuan thought that if he had Xiao He's ability, he would definitely be more optimistic than Xiao He.

In the end, he suffered from insufficient strength.

practice!
He started practicing hard when he got back. He had the Formless Seal, the help of his uncle, and the Yama Gate that could help him travel through the heavens. It would be a shame if he didn't practice with such a good foundation to become the best in the world.

No one spoke in the field, you could hear a pin drop. Everyone had their own thoughts. They stared at the light under the chain. They could vaguely see a white object, but the light was too dazzling to see clearly what it was.

I don’t know how much time has passed, time seems to have frozen in this silence.

Suddenly, a crisp sound broke the silence. The sound was like the cracking of ice, clear and sharp, startling everyone present.

I saw a silver-white chain unable to bear the weight and broke under the huge tension. At the broken part of the chain, white light suddenly bulged out from the ground, like a beast that had been imprisoned for a long time and finally found a chance to break free from the shackles.

Immediately afterwards, silent wails rang out, and the remaining chains broke one after another with crisp sounds. They broke one by one, like dominoes, and collapsed in a chain reaction.

Every time a chain broke, there was an explosion of white light, which grew brighter and brighter, becoming increasingly difficult to look at.

Everyone present stared with bated breath, their breathing getting heavier with every burst of white light. While coveting the treasure, they did not forget to hold down their weapons to prevent themselves from being ambushed by others before they could launch a surprise attack.

As the last chain broke, the white light reached its peak, illuminating the entire venue like day.

Everyone subconsciously raised their hands to cover their eyes, and when the strong light dissipated like a tide, an unexpected scene appeared in their field of vision.

A white jade cocoon floated in the air, crystal clear all over, accompanied by a strange rhythm, as if synchronized with the breathing, emitting a faint glow.

There seems to be a figure looming inside!
What's happening here?
Without any natural treasures in the world, you are just a human being!

Xiang Yuan was completely confused. Although he had not traveled much, he had borrowed many strange books and magazines from Wang Wenxu. Such a weird scene was not even in the books.

Could it be a demon clan?
No, this appearance is more like an alien. Everyone remained motionless. The strange scene caught everyone by surprise. The strange treasure looked a little strange. Many people took a few steps back, and no warrior stepped forward.

Hiss!

With a slight but clear tearing sound, a crack appeared on the surface of the jade cocoon, and a slender jade hand stretched out from it, like a newborn bud breaking through the soil, five white fingers grasped the moonlight, with a little curiosity about the outside world.

She did not make everyone wait for long. She stepped through the crack in the jade cocoon and walked out. Feng Xu Yufeng just stood in the air.

The girl who emerged from the jade cocoon was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with bright eyes, a beautiful face, and skin as white as snow, which shone with a transparent luster under the moonlight.

She was dressed in white, with long hair that fell to her waist like a waterfall, and her clothes fluttering in the wind. She was pure and spotless, like a fairy descending from the sky.

The girl has a graceful figure. Although she looks young, she exudes a very mature temperament. When she sees the people around her, a faint smile appears on the corner of her mouth.

"I am practicing here, sorry to disturb you all."

The cool voice spread out, with a hint of mischief, making everyone feel cold in their hearts. The most exaggerated was the black-robed old monster from Huangquan Dao. Sensing the terrifying aura, his thighs trembled, and he knelt down with a thud, banging his head on the ground repeatedly.

"I didn't know the Saint was here. I will withdraw now! I will withdraw now!"

Saint?

Is she the Saint of Huangquan Dao?

Xiang Yuan looked at the girl hanging in the air in surprise. In his uncle's incomplete memory fragments, the saint's face had long been blurred and unrecognizable. Just looking at her figure, she was clearly a queen with long legs. How could she have shrunk so much?

Such a small one!
That's right, my uncle also said that the Saint of Huangquan Dao has been reincarnated for many times, and her body shape and appearance are real and fake, which is difficult for ordinary people to guess. The long-legged queen is a saint, and the little one is also a saint. Maybe she will look the same again one day.

"So you are one of our sect's people. Well, although you disturbed my meditation, it is not a big offense. I will let your soul go."

The girl smiled slightly and did not move. The moonlight around her shone brightly. The bright light seemed to be given life, and it flowed beautifully.

The next second, countless residual lights flashed, like thousands of arrows fired at the same time, silently and fiercely, the old monster in black robe was shot into a sieve before he could react.

The people on the Yellow Springs Road who were with him suffered the same disaster. They were pierced by sharp arrows transformed from moonlight, and their bodies were shot into hedgehogs. It was a tragic scene.

The battle started in an unexpected way and ended at an unexpected speed.

Everyone was shocked. If he was so cruel to his own people, wouldn't the others be scared to death?

Run!
Xiang Yuan had already calmed down. He turned around and left without saying a word, not daring to stay for a moment. At first, he thought that they were in large numbers and could attack together. Even if there was a strange legend about the Yellow Springs Witch that was hard to tell whether it was true or not, it would be impossible to kill them all.

It really works!
Before the fight, I thought the opponent was Tyson, but after the fight I found out that it was Taylor!

"Slow down, you're going too fast."

Xiao He flashed to Xiang Yuan's side, pressed him to slow down slightly, stared straight ahead, and stared at Xia Yinmei's back.

At such a critical moment, it is no exaggeration to say that it is a matter of life and death. Xiao He certainly cannot just stare at his butt. The Bagua pattern flashed in his eyes, and Xia Yinmei's figure was engraved into the Bagua pattern.

Chasing souls for thousands of miles, demanding life-threatening energy!
Uncle-master, please lead the way ahead and point out a way out for me.

Xia Yinmei didn't know that she had been targeted and had become Xiao He's pathfinder. She only knew that there was a miner's furnace in front of her and two juniors behind her. She was in the middle, neither the fastest nor the slowest, and had the highest probability of escape.

Everyone fled in all directions and scattered. The Holy Lady Huangquan stood in mid-air, looking east and west, and laughed like a cat playing with a mouse.

Her laughter was as innocent as a silver bell, like that of a girl who just wanted to play.

She waved her hand, and the moonlight dispersed like mist. The omnipresent white light penetrated into the outer maze, causing the formation to be reshaped and transformed into a completely different appearance.

Unbeknownst to everyone, they plunged headfirst into a maze. After entering, they discovered that the moonlight was hazy, the fog was like a tide, and the extremely thick cold air penetrated into their bones, as if even their souls would be frozen.

The leader of the miners rushed into the maze, staggered forward two steps, unable to resist the Yin energy entering his body, his body stiffened, and he died.

Xia Yinmei tried her best to resist, but she didn't know the secrets of the formation, and she was spinning in place as if she was trapped in a ghost wall. She was so anxious that she got angry and sweated profusely.

Five steps away, Xiao He locked his eyes on Xia Yinmei. Even though they were so close, Xia Yinmei had no sense at all.

Xiao He watched all her actions, analyzed the actual cases, eliminated the wrong options, and barely grasped a clue of the operation rules of the formation. He held Xiang Yuan's shoulder and turned to a side path.

Thank you, uncle, for saving our lives today. If you have an afterlife, please come and find us.

Xiao He moved left and right in the maze, following the rules of the formation, and successfully found a way to survive. Seeing that success was within reach, his face became more solemn.

If success consists of a hundred steps, failure often occurs at the ninety-ninth step.

A ray of moonlight shot towards him like a sharp arrow. Xiao He seemed to have noticed it long ago. He pushed Xiang Yuan's shoulder away with one hand and turned to pounce towards the moonlight.

"I'll go buy you some time. You leave quickly and don't look back. Otherwise, you and I will both die here..."

"You take three steps forward, then left, and then..."

"Twenty days later, Dongke..."

The formation that blends in with the moonlight can block the transmission of sound. As Xiao He's figure gradually moves away, the sound becomes intermittent until it disappears completely.

The fog was so thick that one could not see one's hand in front of one's face. Xiang Yuan knew that he could escape by taking a few more steps, but his understanding of the formation was still theoretical, which was like having just learned addition and subtraction within ten and suddenly getting a set of advanced mathematics test papers.

Uncle Master, help me!
