Chapter Eighty-Five: Chance in the Immortal Kingdom
Sending the old shopkeeper to the foot of Beacon Mountain, Xia Qing turned around and left, looking for wild rock sheep. Privately let go of the fox spirit white demon, and the loss of the sheep this time was so big, they didn't dare to go home without catching a few goats back.
The old shopkeeper shook his head, instructed Xia Qing to come back before dark, and rode the old goat up the mountain alone.
The sun was shining, and Xia Qing plunged into Wuzhou.
Wuzhou is dangerous, and many places are shrouded in fog even in broad daylight, and if you are not careful, you will trigger any prohibitions or encounter fierce beasts. In the past, Xia Qing did not dare to easily step into Wuzhou, but now it is different, he has officially become a monk and cultivated to a great advancement, and the three groups of heart fire in his body are drumming out of a steady stream of yuan power, giving him enough confidence and courage.
He didn't go far, and Xia Qing found a group of rock sheep on a cliff, with twenty or thirty of them, walking and chasing on the steep cliff, eating herbs that grew between the crevices of the rocks.
Xia Qing didn't rush to make a move, squatted behind a rock and patiently observed, and quickly found the head of the flock. The head sheep is in good health, and always walks on the middle of the mountain to prevent sudden attacks from demon beasts. It was quite difficult to rush up directly to control the head sheep, and Xia Qing didn't want to use brute force, so he thought of an ingenious way.
Several baby goats were running and playing on the cliffs, and one of them happened to walk towards the rock where Xia Qing was hiding, attracted by a clump of fresh grass. At the moment when the little goat lowered its head to graze, Xia Qing rushed out.
The little goat was frightened, and its limbs jumped up violently, as nimble as a fish in the water.
Xia Qing was faster, and the moment he was about to hit the little goat, his body suddenly dimmed, turning into a flash of blue light and submerging into the little goat's body.
Heavenly Demon Transformation Skill!
Xia Qing used the exercises taught by her aunt and skillfully controlled the little goat's body. This technique is not as powerful as Zhao Xun's Nine Swords of Heaven and Earth, nor is it as mysterious and ferocious as the Abyss Technique, but it has the unique subtlety of the Demon Clan's exercises. The three groups of heart fire in the body exerted force together, and instantly drummed out surging and pure Yuan power, making Xia Qing more skillful and comfortable when he performed this exercise, which was very different from when he first learned it.
The sheep seemed to hear the movement as well, but when they looked up, they saw nothing unusual, lowered their heads and continued to walk on the cliff.
Xia Qing controlled the body of the little goat and ran, climbing up and down, looking like he was running around, slowly getting closer and closer to the head goat, and even walking past it, the most vigilant head sheep in the flock did not find anything. Finally, when he passed by the head sheep again, Xia Qing suddenly appeared and rode directly on the head sheep.
The head sheep was frightened and ran wildly on the steep cliff, sometimes accelerating suddenly, sometimes stopping suddenly, or jumping high and twisting his body in the air, trying his best to throw Xia Qing off his back. The whole flock was alarmed and ran as fast as they could.
"Run, little one, run faster!"
Xia Qing lay down tightly on the head sheep, not only was he not nervous in the crazy gallop of the head sheep, but he became excited, feeling the strong wind and heartbeat in his face, and leaving all his worries and worries behind. In the end, the head sheep slowly stopped, and he couldn't get rid of Xia Qing on his back despite all his might, so he had to accept his fate.
"Haha, let's go, little ones, go back to the inn!"
Looking at the twenty or thirty goats following behind, Xia Qing was in a good mood. In the past, the capture of Yanyang was a matter for Zhao Dazui or Tang Banbei, because it was too dangerous, Xia Qing was not allowed to follow at all, at most he could only watch from afar. Now, he did it alone, and he did it better than Zhao Dazui. Whether Zhao Dazui or Tang Banbei used brute force, they rushed directly to subdue the goats and capture them one by one, but Xia Qing used wisdom, and when he grabbed it, he was a big group!
Xia Qing thoroughly felt the charm of cultivation and pursued strong power, not to compete with others, nor to see who is the best in the world, but to discover the beauty of life and enjoy life better!
The sheep left in the dust and went straight to Beacon Hill, where the Shanren Inn was located.
After climbing a high mountain, he was about to rush down from the top of the mountain, when Xia Qing suddenly clamped the belly of the head sheep with his feet, and one person and one sheep suddenly stopped.
Not far away, the Luoshui River meanders and flows from the foot of the mountain. Nine bends and eighteen bends, like a white ribbon, and like a long dragon lying on the land of Wuzhou. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking into the distance, Xia Qing couldn't help but think of the Immortal Kingdom Galaxy he saw in the Linglong Immortal Palace last night, as well as the important towns of the Immortal Kingdom or the Immortal Cave Mansion.
"Over there is Yunwu Mountain, down the Luoshui River, is the Linglong Immortal Palace, and then there is the Fish Dragon Gate and the Ethereal City, well, the Ethereal City......"
Xia Qing observed while recalling the map of the fairy kingdom in his memory. On the map, the Fish Dragon Gate and the Ethereal City are not far away, but these two names have never been heard of in the real world. There may be some clues in the Fish Dragon Gate, there is a Fish Dragon Pill in the pill refined by my aunt, I don't know if it has anything to do with it, and Ethereal City has never heard of it.
Xia Qing took out his paintbrush, drew the map of the Fish Dragon Gate and the Ethereal City, took the Linglong Immortal Palace as a reference point, and was surprised to find that the Ethereal City coincided with a place in the real world, which was the Guangling Temple that he had been to twice.
"How did the ethereal city of the former immortal kingdom become a desolate place, with only one temple left?"
"Why is the statue of the Guangling Sword Immortal enshrined there, and a human-faced spider demon is detained?
Xia Qing was surprised, the distance between the Fish Dragon Gate and the Ethereal City was not far, and after thinking about it, he decided to go to the Ethereal City first, which is now the Guangling Temple. It was still early, so I decided to explore the Guangling Temple before returning to the inn.
Last night's Immortal Kingdom Galaxy was really shocking, the ancient and magnificent Immortal Kingdom was fascinating, knowing that Guangling Temple was dangerous and entrenched in a powerful demon, Xia Qing still decided to explore. I don't know why, the ancient fairy kingdom gave him an inexplicable sense of intimacy, when the Linglong Immortal Palace was transformed into its heyday under the threat of poisonous fog, and the fairies died and resurrected to defend their homes with their lives, he felt that he had gone back in time and seemed to have become a member of the fairy kingdom. The map of the fairy kingdom that appeared above Linglong Immortal Palace seemed to appear just for him, guiding him to explore.
The ancient immortal kingdom has long since perished, and there are no more immortals in this world, leaving only ancient ruins and legends. Xia Qing himself felt ridiculous, and he didn't believe that he had anything to do with the Ancient Immortal Kingdom, but he just couldn't suppress the fascination for the Immortal Kingdom in his heart.
The sheep galloped down from the top of the mountain and went straight to the Guangling Temple.
Xia Qing was a little nervous, more excited and looking forward to it, I don't know what difference is there about returning to Guangling Temple this time.
