Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

"I've heard that the tricks you humans play with, even venomous snakes, are all the same once their fangs are pulled out."

Hinata Hoshino wanted to explain, but looking at the bamboo leaf green, he suddenly felt that it wasn't impossible.

Bamboo Leaf Green looked at Hinata Hoshino and bared its teeth. Hinata Hoshino shook his head. No wonder he had to have his teeth pulled first.

Hinata Hoshino looked north, where there were grasslands and plateaus. Logically, within these few years, that old lama should have been ambushed and reincarnated.

Hinata Hoshino was pondering this, and he was also somewhat uncertain. After all, it seemed that their faith had not been established for a particularly long time, and they might not have the authority to back it up. Wouldn't that have been a wasted trip?

Moreover, there was Amber who had already paid a deposit. "Let's take her back for a checkup first," Hinata Hoshino thought, somewhat curious about the celestial maiden's anatomy.

"Come on, Liuli, let's go. Let your brother check your body."

"I have two daughters."

"How old are you?"

"twenty."

Hinata Hoshino: ?

Twenty years old, two daughters?

That's true. Nowadays, people have children quite early. She probably had her first daughter when she was sixteen.

My eldest daughter is already five years old.

hiss!

Hinata Hoshino gasped, "This is real torture."

"Never mind, your health is more important. Come with me, I'll take you for a checkup."

Ruri naturally took Hinata Hoshino's hand.

"By the way, where is your husband?"

"Stay home and take care of the kids."

"It's not really appropriate for us to be so close."

"It's alright, we're completely innocent, no one can say anything about it."

Hinata Hoshino took a close look at Ruri and was certain that the one controlling the soul was definitely not her; it was definitely Kohaku.

"amber?"

"Oh dear, you figured it out."

His face was expressionless, his voice flat, yet tinged with a hint of mockery.

"Tsk."

"Uncle Master."

"Grandmaster Uncle, you're back!"

"What? Grandmaster Uncle has returned with his daughter?"

"What? Grandmaster Uncle has returned with his wife?"

……

Hinata Hoshino scratched his head, indicating that he didn't understand. What was going on? The story of the little Taoist priest guarding the mountain was getting more and more outrageous. Kohaku chuckled.

"Who's your daughter?!"

Bamboo Leaf Green bared its teeth, looking indignant, while Hinata Hoshino shrugged helplessly.

"You, my dear daughter."

Ignoring the bamboo viper's struggles, he picked it up and pecked it on its pretty face.

Amber leaned closer, her face still expressionless, her tone flat.

"So, you like this style? Liuli has two daughters who will both get married when they grow up anyway, so why not give them to you?"

"No need for dark."

"It's boring."

When the Taoist priest heard that his grandmaster Shixing had returned with his wife and children, he found it hard to accept that it had happened so quickly.

"Dear teacher, may I borrow your seal?"

The Taoist priest, unaware of the situation, picked up the Nine Elders Immortal Lord Seal and descended the mountain.

The Taoist priest hurriedly descended the mountain and saw at the foot of the mountain Hinata Hoshino holding a little girl in blue, with a young woman who looked like a girl by his side.

The Taoist priest also had his doubts: Could he really have a wife and children? When did he do it? How come I didn't know?

Hinata Hoshino intended to keep Bamboo Leaf Green on the mountain, using the Taoist energy there to wear away the demonic aura on her.

However, without official certification, such as having the Nine Immortal Lord's seal, she would probably be crushed to death by this Dao Qi instead of having her demonic energy slowly worn away.

Of course, Hinata Hoshino wasn't a pervert; he really had no intention of pulling her teeth and then doing something else.

The Taoist priest, observing this, felt a golden light flash in his eyes, activating his Heavenly Eye. He saw a snake spirit and a celestial maiden. The Taoist priest himself found this combination quite interesting.

Hinata Hoshino took the square box that the Taoist priest was holding, took out the Nine Old Immortal Lord Seal from it, tossed it into the air and caught it. The large seal shrank and turned into a small seal.

Hinata Hoshino spat on the seal, which made the Taoist priest look distressed. Despite Bamboo Leaf Green's disgusted expression, he stamped the seal on her forehead.

There are two ways for demons in this world to cultivate themselves: one is to cultivate into human form and cultivate themselves step by step.

Another type is the guardian spirit, which retains its original form and lends its power to its disciples, relying on the incense offerings of humankind for cultivation.

Both the bamboo leaf green demon and the three moth demons belong to the former category. Therefore, before they reach a certain level of cultivation, their demonic aura remains and is easily detected.

Maoshan is, after all, a pure and tranquil place for Taoist cultivation, where Taoist energy endures. Faced with such demonic beings with overwhelming evil aura, it would naturally obliterate their spirit and form, ensuring they would never be reborn.

By stamping a seal, the Daoist Qi will treat the Bamboo Leaf Green as a guardian beast of the mountain, and the Daoist Qi will gradually wear away its demonic aura, saving the Bamboo Leaf Green countless years of arduous cultivation.

Hinata Hoshino released Nobeta, and when Takeba Ao saw Nobeta, his vertical pupils dilated as if he had seen his natural enemy.

The Taoist priest and Amber, who had never seen a Western dragon before, were quite curious.

Hinata Hoshino patted Takehae's head, signaling her to calm down.

Nobeta was roaming around the nine worlds in the Kamui Space when suddenly his vision changed, and he appeared in front of Hyuga Hoshino. At first, he was a little confused, but when he saw Hyuga Hoshino...

Excitedly, he lunged at Hyuga Hoshino, who caught him steadily. Nobeta was not yet an adult, but he was quite large, at least the size of a one-story house.

In a few years, it might be even bigger than Manda. Hinata Hoshino reluctantly moved Nobeta's head away. Like a puppy, she tried to lick Hinata Hoshino's face, so Hinata Hoshino naturally pried her head open.

The Nine Immortals' Seal was imprinted on her brow. Hyuga Hoshino noticed that Nobeta had changed; she had become more slender and was beginning to resemble an Eastern dragon.

"Owner."

Nobeta spoke, her voice a sweet, childlike lilt. Hinata Hoshino looked at the Nine Elders' Immortal Seal in his hand; it turned out it possessed the ability to awaken spiritual power. But this voice, and this size...?

"Shixing, what kind of creature is this?"

“Dragon in the west, Master, would you like to try riding the dragon to ascend to heaven?”

"I am still young, and ascension to heaven is still a long way off, but I can give it a try."

"Noberta, take my mentor and go have some fun in the sky."

"Okay, master."

Despite sounding reluctant, they still took one of the Taoist priests along to experience the joy of riding a dragon.

"Ha ha ha ha"

Among them, the Taoist priest was laughing wildly in the sky, Hyuga Hoshino's mouth was twitching, and Maoshan's laughing hero was created by my own hands.

After finishing his alchemy, Master Qide went out for a stroll and saw one of the other masters riding on something in the sky, laughing wildly. Qide's lips twitched. So what if he was flying? He wasn't envious at all.

He returned to the alchemy room to refine pills once more.

Chapter 182 The Elixir of Life

Let the Taoist priest go have some fun. He's so old, and he's always so tense; it must be tiring. Just treat it as a break.

As long as he doesn't go to the furniture store to confront the Holy Lord, he can ride the dragon for as long as he wants.

Hinata Hoshino swept his gaze toward Kohaku.

"Come on, old man, let me give you a check-up."

"Okay, shall I take off my clothes?"

"Ideally, not a single one should be left."

"Is this considered bullying an innocent woman?"

"You're old enough to be anyone's ancestor, and you call yourself a 'respectable woman'? You're more like a 'respectable ancestor'."

Hinata Hoshino grabbed Kohaku by the neck and forcibly dragged her to his room.

Upon entering Hinata Hoshino's room, Kohaku couldn't wait to take off her clothes.

“If you don’t return control of your body to Liuli, I’m worried that she’ll come after me once she regains control.”

"Don't worry, she's tacitly agreeing."

"What domineering logic! As long as you don't deny it, it's considered an admission, right?"

"Hmm, that's right."

"Stop it! If this continues, Hong Shixian will start shouting his lines. Lie down first, let me check your pulse."

Hinata Hoshino placed his hand on Kohaku's wrist. The pulse was strange; it was a rootless pulse, the pulse of someone on the verge of death.

The rootless pulse is characterized by its large, weak, and rootless appearance, or its faintness and inability to be felt. For example, an extremely rapid and indistinct pulse, like boiling water in a cauldron, floating and without root, is called the "boiling cauldron pulse," indicating extreme heat in the three Yang channels and depletion of Yin fluids. A pulse on the skin that is stable at the beginning but swaying at the end, seemingly present yet absent, like a fish swimming in water, is called the "fish swimming pulse." A pulse on the skin that is like a shrimp swimming, sometimes leaping away and then returning in a moment, accompanied by a rapid and restless appearance, is called the "shrimp swimming pulse," all signs of extreme cold in the three Yin channels, loss of Yang externally, and floating, deficient Yang.

It is indeed a big problem, but it shouldn't be like this. Hyuga Hoshino's hearing is extremely strong. Even without getting close, he can hear Kohaku's strong and powerful heartbeat. His heartbeat is clearly normal, so why is his pulse so weak?

"Hurry up and hand over control of your body to Liuli."

Seeing Hinata Hoshino's somewhat solemn expression, Amber nodded, her eyes changing. As expected, Ruri's control over her body's heartbeat was not as strong as when Amber controlled it.

By observing Liuli's internal condition through Baiyan, he noticed that her blood flow was sluggish, and there were specks of pink light circulating within her body.

"Liuli, tell me honestly. Did you almost die at birth? Amber kept your condition stable with medication, but in the last year or two, it's become increasingly difficult to maintain it. You often faint?"
