Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog

In the end, Akagi decided to leave.

She came to Southern Xinjiang to find her junior brother Bai Long'er. Now that she has learned of Bai Long'er's death, she is heartbroken and unwilling to stay here any longer.

During this time, she has fully recovered from her old injuries and even benefited from the misfortune, gaining a deeper understanding of the "Nanming Li Huo Gong De Zhen Jun Fa".

But whenever she looked at Bai Yaochen, who had Bai Long'er's face, an indescribable bitterness welled up in her heart.

"Master, are we really leaving?"

Bai Yaochen looked at Chi Limu, his eyes revealing an unnatural dependence. He had been resurrected from Wu Tian's body and had a natural affinity for Chi Limu.

He regarded Chi Limu as a relative of his parents' generation from the bottom of his heart. Now that he had finally met an elder, he subconsciously felt dependent on him.

“It’s me, not you.” Chi Limu’s feelings toward Bai Yaochen were complicated. He was her junior brother’s son, and he was living in his body. But every time she saw Bai Yaochen, she would think of Bai Long’er.

So ever since they recognized each other, she rarely looked Bai Yaochen in the eye, and her tone always carried a faint sense of estrangement.

"Now that you are the Dao Child of Taiqing, you have come to the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the Southern Frontier with a mission. The Fire God Palace is now overwhelmingly powerful and will probably be able to sweep through the Hundred Thousand Mountains in no time."

"But the battle in the Northwest is fierce, and the outcome in the Southern Frontier is decided so quickly. This is not a good thing for the sect."

Chi Limu knew all this because Bai Yaochen had revealed almost all the secrets to her, including the mission his sect had sent Bai Long'er to the Southern Frontier.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yaochen opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, he couldn't utter a single word, like an abandoned cub.

Chi Limu noticed his emotions, slowly turned his back, and sighed: "You must remember that you are Taiqing Daozi Bai Long'er, not anyone else. Completely forget your former identity."

“You are still too naive. If you return to the sect like this, many people will see through your act.”

"What you need to do is to digest and absorb his memories as much as possible, and imitate his words, actions and style of behavior."

"The Ten Thousand Mountains are in such chaos now, it is a good time for you to train. On the one hand, complete the sect's mission, and on the other hand, stay away from sect troubles to prevent others from discovering the changes in you."

"When you have fully digested his memories and your words and actions are flawless, then return to the sect."

She paused for a moment, her tone softening slightly, no longer so cold, "I believe you can do it."

Don't disappoint your father!

Bai Yaochen stared blankly at her retreating figure, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Master Aunt, I understand. I will definitely remember Master Aunt's teachings."

Chi Limu smiled upon hearing this, glancing at him sideways as if she were seeing her silly, dazed junior brother again. "You... from now on, just call me Auntie in private..."

"With your cultivation level, you are capable of protecting yourself in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Focus on your training and cultivation."

"I hope to hear news of your great achievements elsewhere."

"Work hard, and we'll meet again on the Northwest battlefield someday."

With that, she transformed into a streak of sword light, soaring into the sky and disappearing into the distance.

"Aunt?" Bai Yaochen was stunned for a moment, but his originally somewhat disappointed mood suddenly improved a lot. He murmured in the direction where Chi Limu disappeared, "Aunt, I will definitely go to the Northwest battlefield to find you."

……

After parting ways with Bai Yaochen, Chi Limu did not choose to leave Southern Xinjiang directly. For a long time to come, she would not be able to come to Southern Xinjiang again. This was her hometown, which held her childhood growth and memories.

She thought of the sword-hiding cave that her master had opened up in Skull Mountain. Although Skull Mountain had collapsed, the cave should have been buried underground, or perhaps it still existed.

"Let's go take a trip there and see the place where we once practiced!"

A complex emotion flashed in Chi Limu's eyes. The longest time she spent with her junior brother was actually in the underground cave of Hidden Sword Cave.

……

At the same time, deep in the jungle outside the Flaming Mountains.

Silver Frost vanished amidst the wind and clouds at an incredible speed, occasionally leaving behind a few stray hairs along the way. After making a wide circle and completely concealing its presence and traces, it finally returned to the hot spring.

She had no worries about Wu Tian's safety.

Flaming Mountain doesn't even have a single Dao Embryo cultivator now, only a few Refining Technique Realm cultivators. Even if Wu Tianzhen is exposed, with his strength, he can easily force his way out.

"We don't know what happened to him, and who exactly was that dog-headed, human-bodied demon king we saw that day?"

Yinshuang also had many questions in her mind, but she did not ask them. If Wu Tian were willing to talk about it, he would have already done so.

Since he is unwilling to talk, there is no point in asking further.

Having carefully concealed his whereabouts all the way, Yinshuang finally returned to Tangchigou. However, his expression suddenly changed, his fur stood on end, and his wings vibrated like celestial blades.

As a variant of the Cloud Light Hou, she was extremely sensitive to the atmosphere of heaven and earth. At this moment, she could sense that an incredibly terrifying sword immortal was rushing towards this place at an alarming speed.

But that aura seemed somewhat familiar.

Just as her thoughts were turning, a streak of red light shot through the air at incredible speed, arriving above the hot spring pool in the blink of an eye.

The sword light receded, revealing a woman in a blue dress with a cold, frost-like face, holding an ancient sword in her hand—it was Chi Limu.

"Come out." Chi Limu said calmly, but the Qingli Ancient Sword was already slightly drawn from its sheath, its sword ringing softly.

Although Yin Shuang used her innate ability to conceal herself and did not reveal any of her aura, she was still discovered by Chi Li Mu. Her eyes flickered slightly as she recognized the person who had come, and she couldn't help but murmur to herself, "What a coincidence."

She had lived in White Dog Village for decades, practically watching Chi Limu grow up. Especially since dogs are extremely sensitive to scents, she naturally couldn't possibly fail to recognize this prodigy from White Dog Village.

Knowing that hiding was useless, Silver Frost flapped its wings and appeared in mid-air, surrounded by the power of wind and clouds, looking extremely extraordinary.

"Hmm? This is... an ancient species?" A hint of surprise flashed in Chi Limu's eyes. "There are such demon races on the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Mountains?"

The ancient sword in her hand was fully drawn, its blade shimmering with a bluish-green luster. "Perfect, I'll kill you and take your inner core to refine medicine."

Before the words were even finished, the sword flashed.

Chi Limu's attack was decisive and ruthless. This sword strike, seemingly casual, actually contained the profound mysteries of the Nanming Lihuo Sword Technique. Wherever the sword light passed, the void seemed to faintly burn.

Silver Frost was terrified. She flapped her wings and transformed into a streak of white light, retreating rapidly. At the same time, she opened her mouth and spewed out a gust of wind that collided with the sword light.

boom!
The gale shattered, but the sword light, undiminished in its momentum, continued its slash.

Silverfrost had no choice but to retreat again, its wings flapping repeatedly, stirring up a storm.

After practicing the "Taiyin Wind Mother Yuanjun's Twenty-Four Hours Method," her control over the wind far surpassed what it had been before. At this moment, she exerted her full power, and a fierce wind suddenly arose in the valley, with sand and stones flying everywhere. However, Chi Limu's sword light was like a leech, relentlessly pursuing her no matter how she dodged. The true meaning of the Li Fire contained in that sword light made her feel a burning pain all over her body.

"How old is Chi Limu? She has already cultivated to such a terrifying level." Yin Shuang couldn't help but be surprised. She knew that with her current bloodline, ordinary great demons and cultivators in the Refinement Realm were no match for her.

But Chi Limu's casual sword strike almost drove him to the brink of despair.

"She has already achieved the Dao Embryo stage. Dao Embryos from Taiqing Temple are indeed incredibly powerful."

"If the fight continues, I'm afraid she'll kill me within three sword strikes."

As the sword light was about to strike her, she had no choice but to speak in human language, her voice clear and melodious like a wind chime, "Little Chi Li, do you still remember Silver Frost, the dog king of White Dog Village at the foot of Skull Mountain?"

Chi Limu raised an eyebrow slightly, the sword light stopping three inches above Yin Shuang's head. "What did you say?"

Yinshuang's tone held a hint of relief, but also a touch of helplessness. "Tell me, do you still remember Yinshuang, the Dog King of White Dog Village at the foot of Skull Mountain?"

"You are..." A look of surprise finally appeared on Chi Limu's face, "Silver Frost?"

She slowly sheathed the Qingli Ancient Sword, her tone still tinged with disbelief.

Yinshuang looked at Chilimu with a complicated expression in her eyes: "Back then, you and Bailong'er left with the master of Taiqing Temple. I had a chance in the Ten Thousand Mountains and cultivated into a demon."

"But later, the Undying Palace and the Fire God Palace went to war. In the aftermath of the battle, the entire White Dog Village was wiped out, and even their corpses were devoured by other demons."

"I hid in an underground cave in Trapped Sky Mountain, which is how I escaped with my life."

Upon hearing her first words, Chi Limu was already 70-80% convinced of her identity. Ordinary demons would never know that she had been with Bai Long'er, which was why the Taiqing Temple master had left.

There is also Trapped Sky Mountain, which is where Bai Long'er and she rested when they were training in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and suddenly asked, "Do you remember back in Trapped Sky Mountain, there was a pig-headed monster and a rat spirit who followed Bai Long'er? Are they still in Trapped Sky Mountain?"

Yinshuang smiled and said, "You mean that pig-headed monster and the yellow-skinned fox? They were still in Trapped Sky Mountain a while ago, but now Trapped Sky Mountain has been set on fire by a Nascent Soul expert, and almost all the demons have died tragically."

"Those two guys must have been burned to ashes by now..."

As she said this, her expression turned slightly somber.

The Ten Thousand Mountains have now become the domain of human cultivators, and all demons are forced to live in a state of near extinction. In the past, a single great demon could roam freely, and a single demon king could occupy an entire mountain.

But now, everything is different.

Upon hearing this, Chi Limu no longer doubted Yin Shuang's identity. She sighed and said, "I never thought that even after the White Dog Village was destroyed, you would still be able to survive."

"No matter what, this is a good thing."

Memories flooded back like a tide: the Wild Bear Wood, the clan chief, Grandpa, Father, Mother, and White Dragon...

The bamboo houses of Baiquan Village, the ancient paintings pasted on the doors and windows, the ancient cauldron in the village, the bonfire burning at night...

Those childhood scenes have become memories, and we can never go back to them.

Even Bai Long'er is gone; everything has changed.

She suddenly lost the will to go to the Hidden Sword Cave. She put away her ancient sword and sighed softly, "I was preparing to leave the Southern Frontier. Before leaving, I revisited this place, but I didn't expect to run into you."

"Come with me. If you stay in the Southern Frontier, you will eventually fall into the hands of other cultivators."

Upon hearing this, Yin Shuang instinctively shook her head to refuse. Wu Tian was still in the Southern Frontier, especially now that they were in the Flaming Mountains, surrounded by enemies. How could she possibly abandon him and leave?

However, at this moment, the two spider demons hidden deep in the underground crack seemed to have sensed the commotion outside and rushed out from the crack.

"Where did this human cultivator come from? Are you looking for death?"

Bizhu burst forth from the crack in the ground, transforming into human form. Spider silk shot out from her navel, surging towards the Chilimu tree in a massive, overwhelming attack.

"You bitch, what are you standing there for? Run!"

The female spider demon shouted anxiously, urging Silverfrost to run.

She could vaguely sense the terrifying power of the Crimson Wood, yet she still overcame her fear to save Silver Frost.

Yinshuang felt a warmth in her heart, but also a sense of helplessness. She quickly called out to Chilimu, "Chili, don't hurt them, they are..."

They had originally wanted to blurt out their relationship with Wu Tian, ​​but suddenly felt it was inappropriate.

She had also witnessed the battle between "Bai Long'er" and Gu Santong, and had also seen Chi Limu, who was seriously injured at the time.

Chi Limu may not know that the lecherous dog is still alive, and may even mistake the "White Dragon" for the dog.

So the words he wanted to say suddenly caught in his throat, and he said hesitantly, "They are my friends."

The Crimson Wood Ancient Sword was not drawn, but only emitted a buzzing sound. All the spider silk that surged towards him was burned to ashes by a beam of light.

Her gaze swept over the two spider demons, and she frowned slightly. "Yinshuang, if you continue to stay in the Hundred Thousand Mountains and associate with demons, you will probably be killed by other cultivators sooner or later."

"With your current bloodline, you are qualified to join my Taiqing sect."

"Why don't you come with me? You might be able to make a living that way."

Hearing their conversation, Bizhu and Baizhu realized that things seemed to be different from what they had imagined, and immediately stopped what they were doing.

Yinshuang hesitated slightly. Wu Tian was currently in the Southern Frontier, and she did not want to leave. However, looking at the woman opposite her with a somewhat desolate and cold voice, and thinking that she might be the only surviving member of the White Dog Village, she couldn't help but feel a little pity.

"Chi Li, I can go with you, but may we stay here for a few more days?"

She planned to delay for a few days and then try to contact Wu Tian to see what the dog thought.

If the dog is willing to see the Red Wood, that would be wonderful.

Chi Limu frowned slightly upon hearing this. She really didn't want to linger in this place that had been completely changed, but Silver Frost was indeed the only living creature left behind by White Dog Village.

She glanced at the two spider demons, then looked at the pool of lava, and after a moment's thought, said, "Then I will rest here for a few days and try to harmonize the fire element and extinguish the lava, which can be considered as accumulating merit."

"I will leave in three days."

"I hope you can come with me."

"Thank you!" Silver Frost breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. (End of Chapter)
