Chapter 267: The Price of Prajna

For the next half a month, the swordsman has been staying on this beautiful Penglai Immortal Island to cultivate, and a large number of hundred-year-old peaches on the island are much more effective than any elixir, and with the support of enough hundred-year-old peaches, the cultivation of the swordsman is also improving rapidly.

During this time, with the help of Prajna, the swordsman was also very familiar with all kinds of strange beasts on the island.

Since Penglai Immortal Island is located in the extreme depths of the East China Sea, the strength of these strange beasts living on the island is also very strong, so this is one of the few pure places.

Penglai Island is home to two large groups of alien beasts. One is the Cloud Stepping Beast, and the other is the Red Calyx Fairy. In addition, several rare dragon turtles are present.

The Cloud Beast is an ancient beast. According to the record in the "Book of Strange Beasts": there is a fairy island in the East China Sea, and there is a beast living on the island, whose body is like a cow, living on the top of the clouds, and running like lightning in the wind and thunder. It's about this kind of cloud-stepping beast.

The peach blossoms on the human face are red, which is another kind of exotic beast red calyx fairy described. They are elves born from calyxes, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth to grow, and they are incomparably beautiful.

The origin of the rarest dragon turtle is also the most mysterious, and it is rumored that the origin of the dragon turtle is related to the holy beast Xuanwu that carries the entire Penglai Immortal Island. It's just that this claim has never been confirmed.

Speaking of this holy beast Xuanwu carrying Penglai Immortal Island, it goes back to ancient times. Originally, Penglai Immortal Island was just a beautiful fairy mountain, the foundation was unstable, and it was crumbling all day long, and several immortals living on this mountain were very panicked and kept praying to the heavens.

Later, Nuwa Niangniang was kind-hearted and ordered the turtle Xuanwu to carry the mountain, and ordered the immortals living on the mountain to make offerings to the turtle every once in a while to calm his heart.

Since then, the immortals have lived a very comfortable life, they have planted strange flowers and herbs on the fairy island, and planted peach forests. However, they forgot to supply the Divine Turtle in time, causing the Xuanwu Yuan Shen to go out of his body, violating the ban and breaking into the Peach Forest to steal food, and also injured the Peach Blossom Commander. This Xuanwu knew that he was full of desire and committed a monstrous disaster, so he simply fled to the Tongtian River and turned into a turtle. Soon his mansion was occupied by a goldfish essence, fortunately the goldfish essence was finally ambushed by Guanyin, he was also enlightened by Nuwa, so he sincerely took Tang Seng across the river, and then returned to Penglai Immortal Island again to shoulder the responsibility of carrying the burden, and finally achieved the position of the holy beast.

Perhaps because of the face of Prajna, several immortals on the island did not reject the swordsman, but would also point their fingers at the swordsman's cultivation in their spare time.

Although he is reluctant to live this leisurely life, there are still many things in the mortal world that need to be dealt with by swordsmen.

The swordsman looked at the corpse of Xia'er lying on the ground in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little more sentimental in his heart.

During this time, every night the swordsman would ask Praruo to release Xia'er to accompany him for a while.

The swordsman had also tried to put Xia'er in the space of the tiger-shaped pendant she gave her, but it all failed, didn't it mean that the storage space could hold anything?

The swordsman also asked Prajna this question, but Prajna only vaguely said that the storage space was too low-level. In the end, Praruo still accepted Xia'er into the consciousness space of the swordsman, and when the swordsman cultivated to be strong enough, he could open the consciousness space and enter and exit it freely.

In the dim bonfire, the swordsman babbled to Xia'er about what he had experienced, how much he missed her, and how guilty and self-blamed he had come back a step too late.

Whenever this happens, Pranya will quietly hide in the swordsman's consciousness space without saying a word, and will never make a sound to disturb the swordsman talking to himself to Xia'er. For thousands of years, I have been thinking about the swordsman all the time, and instead of the slightest jealousy in my heart, I felt very relieved when I saw all this.

"This is my brother who has loved and looked for thousands of years, and he also loves me. ”

Pranya hid in the shadows and thought beautifully.

The long years have not left too many traces on Prajna's body, and it is not at all obvious that she has survived from ancient times thousands of years ago. Her face is still as delicate as it was then, and if there is any change, it is that her figure has become taller and her temperament has become more noble.

Early the next morning, the swordsman said goodbye to the strange beasts on Penglai Immortal Island, and the Peach Blossom Envoy also specially picked a lot of hundred-year-old peaches and some thousand-year-old peaches for the swordsman to bring. It can just be used to give a favor to the swordsman.

After agreeing that he would bring outside novelties to visit them in the future, the swordsman handed over control of his body, and Prajna took control of his body and flew into the air, flying towards the west.

The swordsman also asked Prajna why she couldn't show up, and Praruo only said that the time had not yet come, so he would not say more. How does the swordsman know what kind of price Prajna has paid in order to be able to protect him anytime and anywhere.

Many years before she found the Swordsman, Prajna's cultivation had reached its limit, and she had already realized the way to break through the bottleneck. For this reason, she endured great pain, tore her soul and split into a lot of clones, and before she could harvest it, she accidentally found the traces of the swordsman, so she paid a great price to give up her body and live in the consciousness space of the swordsman.

It was precisely because of this reason that the swordsman's coma was sealed. And the reason why he was unconscious by the peach blossom pond in Taoyuan Village was also deliberately done by Praruo.

"Brother Swordsman, what are you going to do when you return to land?"

On the way, Pranya asked the swordsman while controlling the swordsman's body to fly.

"What should I do? I'm afraid that the Dragon Palace won't give up on the death of Zhang Li. I don't know what the situation is now, so I'll inquire about it when I get back. ”

The swordsman had no idea in his mind.

Although Zhang Li was killed by Prajna, this account must be counted on his own head, and the swordsman did not intend to shirk the responsibility, if he had that strength, he would also kill Zhang Li. He had long heard Village Chief Tan talk about the murder caused by Zhang Zhang more than ten years ago, and this tragedy in Taoyuan Village was done by Zhang Batian, in his opinion, Zhang Zhang was innocent.

"Brother Swordsman, don't worry, although Prajna can't exert too much strength now, but Prajna will definitely not let Brother Swordsman be harmed. ”

Pranya said firmly.
