Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 434 A Fantastical Idea by Wei

"This!" Zuo Fei's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as she bombarded him with questions: "How did you do that? Was it sorcery? Or a magical artifact?"

A cold sweat trickled down his back, but Wei Xi remained calm and composed, exuding an air of superiority.

Wei Xi casually wiped his damp palms and said, "It just so happens that I have a way to control it. It's just a trivial trick!"

This statement is half true and half false, and its effectiveness largely depends on the speaker's performance.

When it comes to bluffing, Wei Xi is a professional.

From Zuo Fei's perspective, Wei Xi not only possessed a powerful treasure, but also had considerable skill, easily dealing with a powerful demon under the leadership of the Dongyi Demon Chief, which gave her plan a greater degree of security.

Having figured all this out, Zuo Fei's eyes suddenly became intense as she stared at Wei Xi, hesitant to speak.

Wei Xi was feeling guilty at this moment—it was already a stroke of luck to be able to get out of the predicament for the time being, and it was an unexpected bonus to increase his voice, but Zuo Fei's eyes clearly wanted him to play a greater role.

The problem is that Wei Xi doesn't have the strength to directly confront ancient monsters.

Even if she were using Lian Gou's flimsy shell now, she still couldn't beat Lue Xi.

Thinking of this, the audacious Wei Xi felt a wave of fear wash over him again.

When the moss suddenly sprouted, Wei Xi knew he had already given himself away.

Luexi deliberately sent Tanmo away, actually sending it to secretly monitor them; then he replaced Yuhan with Yuhan as the guide, and left under some pretext, creating an opportunity for Wei and Zuo to be alone.

The real intention was not in the wine; it seemed that Zuo Fei was unwilling to speak, so he used Wei Xi to pry open his mouth.

Now that things have come to this, regardless of whether Tanxian relays the message to Luexi, the crocodile is likely to kill Zuofei on the spot.

This is something Wei Xi doesn't want to see.

The reason is simple: the era of rampant monsters is over thousands of years ago. What Wei Xi is experiencing now is either the challenges of the Bone Reef Sea or the messages left behind by Dead Water City.

In either case, the fool who wants to be a great hero is probably the core of what keeps this place going, and who knows what will happen once he dies.
Zuo Fei cannot die until Wei Xi obtains the full name of the Eastern Yi Demon Chief or finds useful information.

Clutching the scroll tightly in his hand, Wei Xi lowered his eyes slightly.

This scroll at least confirms one thing: the scene before us is probably some kind of large-scale formation evolved from memory, or it may simply be a secret realm built into the Bone Reef Sea.

Lian Gouhan once mentioned that his true form, which is this scroll, was made from the hides of various demonic beasts and had some inexplicable relationship with yin and yang energy.

When the moss rushed over, Wei Xi knew he couldn't withstand it head-on, but then he suddenly remembered that this demon's ability was fusion.

For some inexplicable reason, Wei Xi thought that perhaps the Lian Gou Lang scroll could capture the projectiles of the demonic beasts...

What a joke! Wei Xi estimates that even if he gathered every living leather painting in the world, it wouldn't withstand a single blow from real moss.

Wei Xi once overheard his senior brothers and sisters chatting while he was getting food. They mentioned that some ancient demon beasts were born with strength equivalent to the current Spirit Realm, and that a demon beast like Luexi had even reached the half-step Myriad Manifestations level.

“The Lian Gou Lang scroll can collect this thing,” Wei Xi concluded. “It seems that these things are all formed from the condensation of Yin and Yang energies…”

"That's good, then we'll have fewer reservations when we start fighting."

However, Wei Xi remained wary of Zuo Fei and therefore did not truthfully tell her that she had also heard the old blind man singing lyrics.

The two, each with their own agenda, quickly reached a "consensus" to act as soon as possible: since the enemy had already become suspicious, failure to act quickly might lead to unforeseen complications.

Before parting, Wei Xi handed Zuo Fei a white jade bottle containing pills to replenish spiritual energy. "These pills were made by my senior... sister," Wei Xi blatantly misrepresented, "Take one if you can't hold on."

"Thank you!" Zuo Fei readily accepted the bottle and said with a wry smile, "I have nothing of value to offer, so I can only wish you, brother, peace and safety."

Wei Xi thought to himself, "You're not just penniless, you're incredibly wealthy. The entire Deadwater City, along with the Bone Reef Sea, is your legacy."

Wei Xi smiled, cupped his hands slightly, and turned to leave gracefully.

According to Zuo Fei's plan, Wei Xi should create enough chaos to attract the attention of monsters like Lue Xi.

The local girl, Zuo Fei, was thinking of a warehouse full of materials.

"Yu Xian... the leader of the Eastern Yi demons is obsessed with smelting. He usually stays near his furnace, but his skills... can only be described as inconsistent. Furnace explosions are a common occurrence."

"That's why the Eastern Yi have to supply it with a lot of materials every day. Not only the Eastern Yi, but also the several demon beasts it sent to the four directions also collect all kinds of materials and send a batch to the Eastern Yi every three days."

“These teams transporting materials are usually searched repeatedly.”

"However, recently the demons of Dongyi have been busy preparing for the Green Moon Tide. As far as I know, the warehouse has already been filled with human slaves."

"This is your chance to sneak in. If all else fails, you can use this gold as a bribe. I don't need to think of an excuse, do I?"

“If anything goes wrong in the warehouse, it will inevitably attract the attention of Luexi and the others. By then, you will have already escaped, and I can blend into the procession of the offerings.”

Holding a small gold ingot in his palm, Wei Xi recalled Zuo Fei's words.

Admittedly, it was a good idea, and Wei Xi could come up with a hundred reasons to sneak in, but she didn't intend to follow Zuo Fei's plan completely.

Wei Xi's trust in Zuo Fei was not enough to warrant entrusting his life to her.

Moreover, Wei Xi casually stuffed the gold ingot into her sleeve, her eyes slightly narrowed. Since she was already here, it would be a disservice to her suffering if she didn't do something big.

Wei Xi lacked Zuo Fei's blind optimism.

From Wei Xi's perspective, Zuo Fei's success required the right timing and location; his own involvement in this long-forgotten history was purely accidental.

Moreover, Zuo Fei is at most a golden bone, but in the cultivation world a thousand years later, he would definitely be a genius.

The problem is that Yin and Yang energies are the mainstream at this point in time. Zuo Fei is currently a wild cultivator with a cultivation level of at most Core Formation. Can such a crude plan really help him overcome the gap in strength and suppress the Eastern Barbarian Demon Chief?

"If that's the case, how did Zuo Fei manage to do it in history?"

Not to mention that Wei Xi consumed a lot of Zuo Fei's spiritual power, Lue Xi and Yu Han were planning to pry open the little Taoist priest's mouth. With their methods, even without "Lord Bai" from Nanjiang, arranging another person would be a piece of cake.

Wei Xi sneered inwardly—he rarely acted on emotion and had almost been deceived by Zuo Fei's resolute decision.

Fortunately, I was alert enough. This was clearly the wretched checkpoint in the Bone Reef Sea. I don't know what method they used to steal my memories and make up this fabricated story!
It might just be the work of that secretive deep-sea gambler and Eastern Yi demon leader!

Thinking of this, Wei Xi's old and new grudges surged into his heart, and he made up his mind to overturn the monster's furnace and let it relive the exhilarating experience of being blown up.

"What level is this! It's on the same track as my beloved Elder Flower! Your disciple will smash its furnace right now!"

That's right, our Luexi is such a renowned demon beast, but it is still no match for the Eastern Yi Demon Chief.

Just a reminder, Wei Xi isn't a god; her predictions aren't always correct.
