To be honest, as a disciple of Xuanling Sect, and the chief disciple at that, it is indeed a bit unbecoming that he has never even been to the ancestral temple.
Although the immortal cultivation sects do not have as many rules and regulations as the true cultivation families, they still attach great importance to some things, such as "spiritual inheritance".
"Go!"
Guo Meng wiped her face with Tang Xin's sleeve and said with a happy look on her face.
"There is a fruit tree outside the ancestral hall. The fruits it grows are delicious. Unfortunately, there is a formation guarding it all year round, so I can't pick them..."
Do you eat the fruit in front of the forbidden area? Why learn something else but learn to taste the forbidden fruit...
"I will go," Tang Xin nodded again, "with Elder Guo Meng."
Although she did not believe that the deceased predecessors of Xuanling Sect would give her any inheritance or enlightenment, it would not be a bad thing to light a stick of incense, worship and pray for good luck in the coming year.
"Master and I will go too," Shui Qiu said happily, "Then let's pay homage to the elders of Xuanling Sect together. I heard that if we worship in pairs, the effect will be doubled!"
"There is also this matter..."
Singles suffered a severe blow.
"Elder Guo Meng," on the other side, Su Ling bowed respectfully to Tang Xin's master and said, "On behalf of our respected master, Elder Ling Hua, I welcome you back to Xuanling Sect."
"Ling Hua," the elder nodded, "Has her poison been cured?"
"poison?"
The sword-cultivating girl asked in confusion.
"Didn't she get poisoned by some strange poison that often causes backaches?" Guo Meng said, "No one in the entire Xuanling Sect can cure it. I've been looking for a solution for a long time, but I can't find one."
"Well, Master has been giving massages to people recently. I thought she liked the feeling..."
After getting a fairly satisfactory answer, Shui Qiu and Su Ling left the mountain.
"You know a lot," Tang Xin said as she watched her junior sisters leave. "Well, I want to ask..."
"About you?"
Elder Guo Meng continued as if he could see through her thoughts.
"Ah."
Tang Xin knew that the intuition of the cultivators of the "Newborn Heart" was extremely sharp, so he did not hide it.
"let me see."
The elder frowned slightly, looking like he was really thinking seriously about it.
What happened more than ten years ago should not be considered “long ago” for a cultivator at the Soul-Severing Realm.
"I remember now," Guo Meng hammered his palms and said with sudden realization, "I picked you up!"
"I also know that you picked me up..." Tang Xin wiped the sweat from his forehead. "The key is what was the situation at that time?"
"It was this, that, and then... that's it."
She made a bunch of gestures with her hands.
There was a moment of silence.
Tang Xin took a deep breath, raised his hands, clenched them into claws, and sneered in a gloomy voice.
"I have a trick that's even scarier than tickling. If you don't tell me clearly, I'll make you feel great..."
[Persecution Point +233]
"Tang Xin, you are bad." Elder Guo Meng shook himself twice, stretched out his finger, pointed at her forehead, and said, "Look for yourself!"
All of a sudden, a memory flooded into Tang Xin's mind.
……
At that time, Guo Meng was traveling around and passed by an ordinary mortal country.
This country is remote, and people live scattered in the mountains, forming villages one after another, with little communication.
"It's dinner time."
Guo Meng, riding on the clouds, scratched his head in the sky and slowly landed beside a stream.
Coincidentally, there was a red fruit floating on the stream, which immediately caught her attention.
“Fruit!”
She immediately flew onto the water and chased after the red fruit.
Maybe it was because the long flight consumed a lot of her energy, or maybe the red fruit was unwilling to be eaten, but she chased it for half a day before finally catching it at a corner.
"Let's eat!"
Just as she was about to eat the fruit, she suddenly frowned.
Because she smelled something bad.
Following the scent, she soon arrived at a small village.
The village was silent except for gray mist floating faintly in the air, which created an indescribable weirdness.
When ordinary people see this abnormal situation, most of them will turn around and leave.
But Guo Meng is different, she completely believes in her "intuition".
Her intuition told her that there was no danger ahead.
Once inside, a strange and even somewhat terrifying scene appeared before one's eyes.
All the living things in the village, whether humans or birds and animals, turned into ice sculptures.
Not ice sculptures where something is frozen, but sculptures made entirely of ice.
The weather was clearly not cold, but these ice sculptures showed no signs of melting. Their expressions and postures made it hard to believe that they were just sculptures.
Besides, why didn't those bird ice sculptures in the sky fall down? This can't be explained by superb craftsmanship, right?
The situation was strange, but Guo Meng still didn't feel any danger, so he continued to go deeper.
Until a statue of a woman made entirely of ice appeared in front of them, and in her hands was a baby... a living baby.
The whole village is dead, only she is alive.
When the baby lying in the cradle saw the stranger, he started crying.
"Are you hungry?" Guo Meng divided the red fruit she had just obtained into half and handed it over. "I'll give you half..."
Then, she felt something in her heart, so she brought the baby from the "Ice Sculpture Village" back to Xuanling Sect.
……
"Fuck..." Tang Xin couldn't help but say after reading this memory, "You guys are too brave, aren't you? This is obviously an abnormal situation, and you dare to bring me back? The leader dares to keep me here?"
"The key is that you are fine," said Elder Guo Meng, "The reason why the village is in such a situation is because of some special power. It has nothing to do with you."
"It's already strange that I'm there... Didn't you guys investigate my background?"
Tang Xin's mouth twitched.
"We checked," the elder replied, "but there is no result. There are many strange things like this on the mainland. There are also people with more bizarre backgrounds than yours in Xuanling Sect."
"With a background like mine, how dare you train me with confidence?" The chief senior sister of Xuanling Sect rolled her eyes. "You don't know there is something called a plot trap, right..."
"Why don't you dare?"
Hearing this, Guo Meng looked at her with a puzzled look.
"As long as you haven't betrayed Xuanling Sect, as long as you are Tang Xin, you will always be a member of Xuanling Sect. What does your status, position, and origin have to do with it?"
"is that so……"
Tang Xin was very moved.
"I understand. I, Tang Xin, am a member of the Xuanling Sect when I am alive. I will be a ghost of the Xuanling Sect when I die. I must repay the sect in the future!"
Chapter 145: A Pious Sister
The last day of the year,
Unlike ordinary people, monks don't care too much about such days.
"It's a special day after all, so let's take a day off today."
The Xuanling Sect was filled with a lazy atmosphere... Anyway, these guys usually liked to be lazy during festivals, so it wasn't that special...
The elders turned a blind eye to this situation and let them enjoy the little remaining leisure time.
When the head of the sect takes over the operation of the sect, they will have a hard time...
On the other hand, the disciples seemed to be busier than usual.
Before entering the forbidden area at the back mountain, there are steps that must be completed.
Calm your mind, cleanse your body, and kneel down.
To calm the mind, one needs to meditate in the master's hall for six hours. To cleanse the body, one needs to soak in the spiritual spring bath for half an hour. To kneel and worship, one needs to perform the ritual of three kneelings and nine kowtows facing the golden plaque of "Xuanling Sect" in the hall.
Only after completing all of them will you be qualified to meet the ancestors of Xuanling Sect.
By the way, we must cleanse ourselves one by one. We cannot have you help me help you, and we are not allowed to do anything that would insult this solemn atmosphere...
Tang Xin took the lead and completed the above steps exactly.
After changing into clean robes, an elder led a disciple and waited in the hall for the master to speak.
"It's time," Yu Lingzi looked around at the people sitting down and said, "Let's go to the ancestral temple in the back mountain."
Soon, everyone arrived quietly at the foot of a hill in the back mountain.
Different from other hills, this hill is shrouded in a faint golden light, which gives people a sense of majesty and oppression from afar.
Yu Lingzi came under the golden light, formed seals with his hands, and muttered something silently.
A ball of golden light slowly formed in her palm.
"Junior Yu Lingzi, come to pay respect to all the seniors."
The headmaster gently sent golden light into the barrier, covering the power of the mountain and slowly opening a gap.
