I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 550 The Whole Story (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Outside the isolated island.

As Jiang Yi had predicted, after discovering that she could not break through the island's great formation, Su Lingxian advised Yu Qianlang to stop and instead explore the area beneath the island.

Jiang Yi, controlling Fu Liu, guided them to discover an underwater entrance, and the three entered the island's underground space.

At that time, Zhenshan and Duanjin had already sent Shen Qianling and Shen Qianyun out, and had also resealed the underground crack and dealt with the surrounding traces of the fight.

Jiang Yi reminded the two that the ground was filled with demonic energy, and they had to completely seal their dantian and sea of ​​consciousness. Su Lingxian was also very cautious, and the paper umbrella was always suspended above her and Yu Qianlang's heads to isolate them from the abnormal aura around them.

Yu Qianlang was overjoyed to see that his mother and uncle were still alive.

Although Su Lingxian frowned and sensed something was wrong, she didn't have time to think about it and immediately used healing spells to save the two of them.

"There's so much demonic energy here, we can't stay any longer. We'd better leave quickly."

Jiang Yi manipulated the willow talisman to persuade the two, and Yu Qianlang nodded hurriedly. The news of the destruction of Beixuan had already spread throughout the Shan Hai Realm, and the cultivators of Fuguang Sea were well aware of the terror of demonic energy.

“But the Dingkun Boat is destroyed, and we can’t safely cross that storm area for the time being.” Su Lingxian’s face was full of worry.

Jiang Yi continued, "Even so, we can't stay on this island. I still have an ordinary flying boat. Let's leave the island and go to sea to find a solution."

Su Lingxian stared at Jiang Yi, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Jiang Yi was too lazy to explain too much, and only said, "The two seniors have silver mist insects left by my senior sister, which means that my senior sister saved the two seniors. She should be fine. I will go to the outer island to wait for a few days."

As he spoke, Jiang Yi left the mark of the Cangling Sect on the ground next to him.

Saving lives was the priority, so Su Lingxian didn't dwell on it any longer. The group quickly retreated the way they came and rested in calm waters far from the islands and storm areas.

……

In front of the stone gate.

After some rescue efforts, Xuanhui finally recovered somewhat, transformed back into human form, leaned against the stone wall, and slowly opened his eyes.

"That's strange... Isn't it said that people see the person they care about most before they die...? Why didn't I see His Majesty, but instead saw you, you annoying brat..."

Xuan Hui mumbled weakly, and Jiang Yi knew he was alright as he could still talk.

"You're wrong. The person you care about most has always been me, this brat, not your master."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Hui's hazy eyes suddenly widened, and he sat up abruptly, shouting as if in a final burst of energy.

"Absolutely not! My loyalty to His Majesty is as clear as day and night. The one I see before I die must be my beloved His Majesty!"

Jiang Yi laughed and said, "Why don't you live for a while first, and then die again?"

Xuan Hui was startled and stared blankly at Jiang Yi, who was grinning mischievously, Hua Gu, who was blinking her big, light blue eyes, Hong Li, who was rolling her eyes, and a proud young boy he had never seen before.

The most ridiculous thing is that the annoying brat has actually reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, just like him. What a joke!
She was so annoying when she was in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stage. He could only suppress her with his cultivation when he got angry. If she becomes a Nascent Soul cultivator, he will really become an old servant who dares not talk back or fight back. He can't even beat her.

Xuan Hui covered his eyes and leaned back.

"I must be having a final burst of energy before death! No, I can't die yet. His Majesty hasn't returned. I must live, I must come back to life!"

After taking it down, the same few people were still in front of him.

Xuan Hui's mind went blank for a moment before he finally accepted the fact, his eyes widening in disbelief. "It really is you, you brat! And Hua Gu... Hong Li... This is... Oh dear!"

Xuan Hui turned his head in shock to look at the stone door. Seeing that the stone door was completely sealed and no demonic energy was leaking out, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Yi didn't have time for nonsense and asked directly, "Where are my master and Lord Longri?"

Xuan Hui didn't seem to have fully accepted Jiang Yi's sudden appearance here. He looked at Jiang Yi with a strange and complex expression.

"out."

"Where did you go?"

"Outside."

"..."

"Don't look at me like that. I really don't know where they went exactly. I only know they went to find something that can suppress demonic energy. His Majesty said they'd come back once they found it, and told me to stay here and keep watch..."

Xuan Hui paused, glanced at the stone gate, and then looked at Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi sighed, "Alright, you don't need to hide it from me anymore. Behind the stone gate... is that my mother, right?"

With such obvious clues around, how could Jiang Yi not guess? Moreover, of all the possibilities, this was the most logical one.

Her mother was constantly on the front lines fighting against the demonic tide, so it was inevitable that she would be corrupted by demonic energy.

When Beixuan was destroyed, there must have been some kind of unexpected event that caused her mother to become a demon. Only under such circumstances would her master stay here to take care of her mother.

Unless it's the most desperate moment, Master will never give up even the slightest hope and will do everything he can to reverse this demonic transformation.

Xuan Hui nodded, "Your mother wasn't completely demonized. She was actually lucid most of the time. She tried to commit suicide at first, but the Venerable One stopped her. There's a very powerful formation behind the stone gate. Your mother locked herself up inside the formation."

"In the beginning, the formation was very stable, with no demonic energy leaking out. His Majesty kept trying to find a solution, but to little avail. Until... let me see... it was about thirty years ago, when the shadow of a cauldron suddenly appeared in the depths of the sea. His Majesty said that it was the Nine Cauldrons Boundary-Stabilizing Formation from the Primordial Era."

"In the years that followed, His Majesty kept searching for the location of that cauldron, saying that there must be a way to suppress demonic energy there, or even resist the Northern Xuan Demon Tide. If some kind of elixir could be found inside the cauldron, it might be able to completely solve the problem of your mother's demonization. It's just a pity that the place is too difficult to find, and His Majesty went there many times but returned empty-handed."

Upon hearing this, Hua Gu asked Jiang Yi, "Was it when you activated that great formation in the Kunlun Secret Realm?"

Jiang Yi nodded, "It should be. After I activated the main array eye in Kunlun, all the major array nodes in the Mountain and Sea Realm reacted. Master must have seen the illusory image of the cauldron at that time."

"What Kunlun Secret Realm?"

"What's going on between Lord Longri and those two people outside?" Jiang Yi continued to ask.

Xuan Hui said, "About two years ago, they came here. When the brother and sister saw me, they wouldn't listen to my explanation. They insisted that I had taken their family's secret treasure and told me to move aside. Then they started fighting. They were just unlucky. Long Ri wasn't with them at the time, and your mother was corrupted by demonic thoughts and lost her mind that day. They didn't kill her. They were just lucky."

"Later, Longri and the Venerable One rushed back together and managed to rescue the two of them. However, the Venerable One did take some things from here, such as some books on array formations and array plates. By the way, when the Venerable One returns, you must not say that her array formations were poorly set up. She'll explode if you do. Ever since she started learning array formations, her temper has been... sigh!"

Jiang Yi understood this. The Dao of Arrays is the most difficult of the miscellaneous arts of cultivation. Only those with talent in this area can master it. Ordinary people can't even understand numerology and astrology.

Given Master's temper, it's easy for her to mess up the learning process. She must have learned it against her will to seal the demonic energy on the island. It must have been really tough for her.

"Are you going to see the Venerable One?" Xuan Hui asked Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi stood up and looked at the stone door. "It's necessary, but before that, we need to solve the problem behind the door."

　See you tomorrow~
