Tianyun Dynasty, Yuanling City.

The autumn breeze curled up, adding a bit of comfort to Yuanling City.

At this time, in the bustling street, a woman wearing a long dress like fire and a soft veil walked.

She looked seventeen or eighteen years old, and even wearing a soft veil could not hide her almost suffocating beauty, like a spotless lotus. On her body, she exudes the atmosphere of vicissitudes, not like what a person of her age should have, but more like a weathered old woman. The gaze also has an indescribable taste, as deep as the stars in the night, as if it can perceive everything in the world.

She held a cyan arrow in her hand, and carried a quiver on her back, which was also cyan, with mysterious patterns engraved on it, giving people an unfathomable feeling.

"Between the world and the earth, if a white horse passes through the gap."

"Perhaps, the only thing that can comfort me is that the speed of time in the immortal realm is different from that in the mortal realm, there is a difference of a thousand times, three thousand years in the immortal realm, and only three years have passed in the Feather Spirit Continent." Looking at the street in his memory, reappearing in front of him, Yuan Junyao suddenly sighed in his heart.

"Daddy, mother, brother, I have been in the fairy world for three thousand years, and you ...... Are you okay in the past three years? ”

At the thought of seeing her relatives soon, Yuan Junyao couldn't help but get excited, for her relatives, they had only been separated for three years, but for Yuan Junyao, she had left her family for three thousand years.

No one knows how Yuan Junyao survived these three thousand years. For countless days and nights, she woke up because she dreamed of her parents, relatives, and her lover.

Tears suddenly soaked her face.

Three years ago in the Feather Spirit Continent, Yuan Junyao went to the Feather Spirit Mountain to train, and encountered a space storm that may not appear once in hundreds of millions of years, and when she woke up from a coma, she had already left the Feather Spirit Continent and came to the legendary fairy world.

The Immortal Realm is a world that is completely different from the Feather Spirit Continent.

Legend has it that the cultivators of the Feather Spirit Continent can only break through the spatial barrier and soar to the immortal realm after cultivating to the peak of true immortals.

In the legend of the Feather Spirit Continent, the fairy world is a paradise for cultivators. But Yuan Junyao knew that the fairy world was not heaven, and even many times, the fairy world was more cruel than hell.

There is no royal law in the fairy world, only strength and humility, and the weak eat the strong. As long as the cultivation is strong enough, you can act recklessly, kill people and set fires, commit adultery and plunder...... The natural selection and survival of the fittest have been brought to the extreme.

Some true immortals will kill people to vent their anger because they are in a bad mood.

The alchemy family will randomly capture weak people to act as medicine slaves, and treat them as guinea pigs to experiment with various pills.

Most of the miners in the immortal mine were also taken prisoner to mine, not only did they not receive remuneration, but they were not even guaranteed three meals a day.

……

Yuan Junyao even saw an evil immortal who slaughtered a city with millions of living beings in order to refine a magic weapon.

In the fairy world, the most valuable thing is life.

In order to return to the Feather Spirit Continent one day, and to survive in the immortal realm of natural selection, Yuan Junyao began her path of self-improvement.

This process is full of thorns, ups and downs, and even a careless accident will be doomed...... However, Yuan Junyao still grew up!

After going through an unknown number of life and death difficulties, she became the only empress among the nine immortal emperors in the immortal world.

The Immortal Emperor is already the figure at the top of the pyramid of the fairy world, and if he stomps his feet, he can make the fairy world shake, and a word can decide the fate of hundreds of billions or even tens of billions of living beings.

But despite having the cultivation of the heavens and the monstrous power, Yuan Junyao still can't integrate into the fairy world.

The homeland is difficult to give up, the homeland is difficult to leave, in Yuan Junyao's heart, the Yuling Continent is her true hometown, and the people she cares about the most are still in the Yuling Continent.

After becoming an Immortal Emperor, Yuan Junyao began to look for a way to return to the Feather Spirit Continent.

She mobilized all the resources in her hands, and finally found the spatial divine arrow 'Qingling' left over from the Immortal Ancient Period.

The space of the Immortal Realm is extremely stable, and even if the Immortal Emperor strikes with all his strength, he can't shake a single point. But with the 'Green Spirit Arrow', Yuan Junyao finally tore a small hole in the immortal space barrier.

After entering the crack in the barrier, Yuan Junyao began to use the 'Qingling Arrow' to open a passage to the Feather Spirit Continent.

The process was full of dangers, because while opening up the barrier passage, she also had to be on guard against external attacks at all times, and she had encountered at least a hundred gluttonous beasts alone, and even the Chaos Ancient Beasts that had long been extinct in the fairy world she had encountered.

By the time Yuan Junyao successfully returned to the Feather Spirit Continent, his cultivation had almost been exhausted, and even the 'Qingling Bow' was gone, leaving only the Qingling arrows and quivers.

"The cultivation is exhausted, and it can be slowly recovered, the Qingling Bow is gone, and there is a chance to find it back, but the storage ring ......" Thinking of the storage ring, Yuan Junyao couldn't help but feel distressed.

In the storage ring, all her belongings in the fairy world for three thousand years were placed, including exercises, pills, and magic weapons...... And a mountain of spirit stones!

It is worth mentioning that the spirit stone is the universal currency of the fairy world.

Although the Qingling Bow was lost, there were still arrows left, as long as Yuan Jun Yao's cultivation was restored to a certain extent, he could use the arrows to retrieve the arrows.

But the storage ring, I'm afraid there is no chance to get it back!

"Fortunately, the time flow rate between the fairy realm and the Feather Spirit Continent is a thousand times different, although I have spent three thousand years in the fairy world, my parents and brother in the Feather Spirit Continent are still alive."

Thinking of her relatives, Yuan Junyao's mood suddenly became happy again.

"I don't know if Daddy has been promoted to the Star Moon Realm now? If not, I'll give him a click and let him become the number one master in the Feather Spirit Continent within ten years! ”

"My mother has no desires and no desires, and my only wish is that the family can be safe, and now that I'm back, naturally no one can bully us!"

"As for the big brother...... Xing Yu, if there is no accident, his symptoms are not diseases, but the innate spirit body 'Nine Yang Spirit Body', as long as the spirit body awakens, he will be invincible on the way to cultivation, a thousand miles a day! ”

"I really want to meet them soon! I just don't know, Daddy's serious face, will he cry with excitement when he sees me coming back? A little evil taste appeared on Yuan Junyao's face.

Since childhood, Yuan Junyao's father has played the role of a strict father, in front of Yuan Junyao, his father has never been smiling, and his speech is as cold as an iceberg.

Of course, strict is strict, but Yuan Junyao knows that her father's love for her is no less than that of her mother.

An hour later......

Yuan Junyao's figure stopped at the door of a big family.

"The furnishings are still the same as three years ago, except that the guards guarding the door ......have changed," Yuan Junyao muttered in a low voice as he looked at the door of the big family.

"Patriarch!"

At this moment, inside the door, a middle-aged man in his forties suddenly walked out, with a majestic momentum without anger. The ten guards with knives guarding the door hurriedly bent down to say goodbye.

"Isn't this the eldest uncle, when did he become the patriarch?" The surprise that flashed in Yuan Junyao's eyes, the patriarch of the Yuan family, has been her father since she was born.

"You......... Are you Yao'er? The middle-aged man soon discovered Yuan Junyao.

The next moment, the middle-aged man had already rushed over, hugged Yuan Junyao tightly, and said excitedly: "Yao'er, you are finally back, you have been missing for three years, and we almost all thought you were ........."

Before Uncle Yuanhan finished speaking, his voice had become choked, he was crying with joy, Yuan Junyao was grown up by him, and in his heart, he almost regarded Yuan Junyao as his own child.

"I'm sorry Uncle for worrying you!" Yuan Junyao couldn't help but have a sour nose, she could feel the strong concern on her uncle's body.

"Don't worry, don't worry, if you can come back alive, it's already the greatest comfort to the eldest uncle!" Uncle Yuanhan said, and habitually touched Yuan Junyao's forehead.

Fortunately, this scene was not seen by the people in the fairy world, otherwise he would have been scared to death. Someone was so bold that he dared to touch the forehead of Empress Yuan Junyao!

"If only your father and mother were still here, they would be happy to know that their daughter is back!" Uncle Yuanhan sighed and said.

"Uncle, has something happened to my father and mother?" Yuan Junyao's face changed suddenly, thinking that the patriarch of the family had been replaced by the eldest uncle, and subconsciously thought about the bad side.

"Ahem, Yao'er, it's not what you think!" The uncle hurriedly coughed dryly, and said apologetically: "This matter is a long story, I'll tell you about the general story first." ”

"Two years ago, Xingyu's inflammation suddenly healed without medicine, and his cultivation talent became extremely demonic overnight, and in just one year, he skyrocketed from the first order of Yuanying to the third order of Xingyue, and became the number one master of Yuanling City...... This incident not only caused a sensation in Yuanling City, but even caused a lot of waves in the entire Tianyun Dynasty. ”

"But a year ago, Yu'er and your father and mother had the same situation as you, and they disappeared overnight. But unlike you, the three of them left behind a mysterious waist card before they disappeared. As he spoke, the uncle took out a waist card from his arms.

Yuan Junyao recognized at first glance that the material used to make this waist brand was 'Geocentric Meteorite', which was taken from the depths of the earth at a depth of 10,000 meters. In the fairy world, the Earth's Meteorite is often used to make pendants, bracelets, and other items that can be worn with you. The Earth's Meteorite has the effect of calming people's hearts, and carrying it for a long time can reduce the risk of going mad.

"Xuan? Dark? "Yuan Junyao took the waist card, and on the front and back of the waist card, he saw the words 'Xuan' and 'Underworld'.

"Could it be the Xuanming Sect?" Yuan Junyao immediately thought of a force.

"Yao'er, you also thought of the Xuanming Sect?" There was surprise in the eyes of the eldest Bo Yuanhan, "After I showed the waist card to Elder Wuji, Elder Wuji also thought of the Xuanyuan Sect. ”

"After all, the matter of Yu'er at that time had already spread loudly, and it was amazing...... After the Xuanming Sect learns about it, it is likely to take Yu'er into its door! And your parents were taken to the Xuanming Sect to take care of Yu'er's daily life. ”

"Of course, all of this is just speculation after all, so whoever knows about this matter only needs me and Elder Wuji."

The Xuanming Sect is a cultivation sect that is extremely famous for its entire Feather Spirit Continent, and it rules dozens of human dynasties under its command.

The Tianyun Dynasty, where Yuanling City is located, is one of the imperial dynasties under the rule of the Xuanming Sect.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Yuan Junyao's eyes.

What she wants to see most now is her parents and eldest brother, but she didn't expect them to go to the Xuanming Sect.

Yes, Yuan Junyao has already affirmed that they went to the Xuanming Sect. Because there is also the Xuanming Sect in the fairy world, the waist card of the Xuanming Sect in the fairy world, in addition to the production materials are replaced with more advanced materials, the rest of the place is exactly the same as the waist card in front of you.

"Uncle, how far is it from Yuanling City to Xuanming Sect? If you ride a blood-maned horse that travels 5,000 miles a day, how many days will it take to arrive? Yuan Junyao moved his mind to go to the Xuanming Sect.

"Yao'er, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. The location of the Xuanming Sect, except for the disciples of the Xuanming Sect, no outsiders know, otherwise the uncle would have gone to the Xuanming Sect to confirm their traces. Uncle said with a wry smile.

In fact, this can't blame the Xuanming Sect for pretending to be mysterious, mainly because there are too many people on the Feather Spirit Continent who want to worship the Xuanming Sect, if the Xuanming Sect doesn't hide the mountain gate, the mountain gate would have been broken down long ago.

After all, the Xuanming Sect is a righteous sect, so I don't say anything in my bones, but on the surface, it is inconvenient for the Xuanming Sect to make a move against ordinary people.

After listening to the uncle, Yuan Junyao became even more lost.

Her cultivation has been almost exhausted, and her divine sense has been depleted to less than one-ten-thousandth of what she was in her heyday, and she can't use her divine sense to find people, otherwise with her own anti-heaven divine sense, a single thought can envelop the entire Feather Spirit Continent.

"Now it seems that the only way to recover my cultivation is to recover my cultivation first, and then go to reunite with my father and eldest brother!"

Uncle Yuanhan took Yuan Junyao into the mansion and placed her in his former residence.

The people of the Yuan family whispered when they looked at the woman wearing a long skirt like fire and a soft veil following Yuan Han

"It's really the eighteenth change of the female college!"

Yuan Junyao ignored those, looked at the familiar courtyard, and the memories of his childhood were suddenly hooked in his heart. When she was a child, she and her eldest brother Xingyu liked to frolic in the yard the most.

"Yao'er, where have you been missing for the past three years? Why are you only coming back now? After placing Yuan Junyao, Uncle Yuanhan couldn't help but be curious in his heart.

"I went to Yuling Mountain with Ning Xue to practice, but I didn't expect to meet the officials and soldiers of Yuling Mountain, and they were imprisoned in the mansion for three years, and I escaped by luck not long ago." Yuan Junyao said the words that he had already thought of.

"You actually ran to Yuling Mountain...... "Uncle Yuanhan's face changed, Yuling Mountain is a well-known "demon cave" to the outside world, because of the dangerous terrain of Yuling Mountain, the Tianyun Dynasty sent troops to suppress bandits several times but failed.

"Fortunately, you escaped back, but Yao'er, you can't rush to this dangerous place in the future, how dangerous a woman is!" Uncle Yuanhan said with a palpitating face.

How did the uncle know that Yuan Junyao did go to Yuling Mountain to practice, but he was not captured by the official army, but was swept to the fairy world by the space storm.

"But Yao'er, in the past three years, have you had a chance to cultivate? What is the cultivation now? Uncle Yuanhan asked again, seemingly concerned about this issue.

"Cultivation...... Yuan Junyao smiled bitterly and said, "It's probably equivalent to a mortal walker of the third order of Yuan Ying!" ”

Uncle Yuanhan didn't notice that Yuan Junyao's introduction added the words 'mortal warrior'. A disappointment flashed in his eyes, you must know that three years ago, 14-year-old Yuan Junyao was already a first-day girl in Yuanling City, with a fifth-order cultivation of Yuanying.

Unexpectedly, three years have passed, and the cultivation has not advanced but retreated.

But it's normal to think about it, after being imprisoned for three years, where is there time to cultivate? Even, if the cultivation was not abolished, it can be regarded as a blessing.

"Yao'er, you don't need to be frustrated, with your talent, even if you start cultivating again now, you can return to the peak in a few years." Uncle Yuanhan comforted Yuanjun Yaodao.

"Yes, I will!" Yuan Junyao nodded, she didn't see any emotions like firmness on her face, some of them were just taken for granted.

"Uncle, can you take me to the family's medicinal herb pavilion?" Yuan Junyao said coldly.

The Feather Spirit Continent is not like the Immortal Realm, there is plenty of Immortal Qi, and some of it is only the lowest level of Spiritual Qi.

If he only relied on aura, it would take at least a hundred years for Yuan Junyao to recover all his cultivation. And for a hundred years, Yuan Junyao obviously can't wait.

Therefore, she moved the idea of refining the elixir.

With the help of the elixir, her speed of recovering her cultivation could increase exponentially.

"Medicinal Material Pavilion ......" A look of embarrassment flashed on the face of the eldest uncle, and then he asked, "Yao'er, what are you going to do in the Medicinal Material Pavilion?" Could it be that during the three years of your captivity, you learned the art of alchemy? ”

"Yes! I was imprisoned with an alchemist, and for the past three years, I have been secretly learning the art of alchemy from her, and I have obtained all her true inheritance! This is also the rhetoric that Yuan Junyao has thought of a long time ago.

Uncle's face suddenly appeared with joy, alchemist is one of the most noble professions in the Feather Spirit Continent, even if he is only the lowest-level human-level alchemist, his status is not below him, the patriarch of the Yuan family.

"That's it, Yao'er, you tell me the medicinal materials you need, and I'll send them to you tomorrow!" Uncle Yuanhan thought for a while and said.

"Hmm......" Although Yuan Junyao didn't understand why the uncle didn't take him to the Medicinal Herb Pavilion, he still reported the medicinal materials he needed.

The area of the Immortal Realm is not known to be many thousand times larger than that of the Feather Spirit Continent. Therefore, all the medicinal materials in the Feather Spirit Continent will basically be available in the Immortal Realm.

The medicinal materials that Yuan Junyao is reporting now are the most ordinary and ordinary medicinal materials, and there are no requirements for growth conditions, and if nothing else, the Yuling Continent will have them.

"Dad, I heard that Sister Yao is back!" At this moment, an excited voice came from outside the courtyard. In just a few seconds, a young man appeared in front of Yuan Junyao.

The young man was handsome and tall, but the fly in the ointment was that his left sleeve was vacuum......

"Sister Yao, it's really your ......" Seeing Yuan Junyao, the young man could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart, and rushed over and hugged Yuan Junyao.

The young man was none other than Yuan Junyao's cousin Yuan Ran.

Yuan Junyao and Yuan Ran, although they are just cousins, the relationship between the two is tantamount to brother and sister!

"Cousin, what's going on with your left hand?" Different from Yuan Ran's excitement, Yuan Junyao's body exuded an icy chill.

If there is someone from the fairy world present, she will definitely be frightened, Empress Yuan Junyao, once this situation occurs, it means that she is going to kill.

What will happen next will be a bloody slaughter.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, it's just that I accidentally got injured and broke an arm. Sister Yao, it's the big day for you to come back, don't we talk about this, okay? Yuan Ran's eyes flashed gloomily, and he hugged one of Yuan Junyao's hands and let go.

"Okay!" Yuan Junyao nodded, and stopped asking. But in her heart, there was still an extremely strong killing intent, Yuan Ran not only had her left arm cut off, but even the sea of qi in her body was abolished.

"Dad, tonight, let me be alone with Sister Yao! I haven't seen each other for three years, and the child really has too much to say to Yao Mei! Yuan Ran turned his head to look at his father Yuan Han, with a bit of urgency in his eyes.

"Okay, but make it clear in advance that you can't drink too much!" In Yuan Han's heart, he actually wanted to catch up with Yuan Junyao, but when he came into contact with Yuan Ran's gaze, he couldn't help but feel soft.

Since being abolished half a year ago, Yuan Ran's temperament has become withdrawn, and even self-defeating. Seeing Yuan Junyao today, it was the first time he had smiled in half a year.

After Uncle Yuanhan left, Yuan Ran asked his subordinates to prepare a table of wine and food.

She is used to drinking immortal wine in the fairy world, and the mortal wine of this Feather Spirit Continent naturally can't get drunk.

"Sister Yao, tell me, where have you been in the past three years, do you know, when you just disappeared, we used the strength of the entire family to find you!" At the wine table, Yuan Ran said.

Yuan Junyao immediately repeated what she said to her uncle to Yuan Ran.

The two siblings talked a lot, and almost made up all the things they hadn't said for three years, so that later, neither of them spoke, but just drank vigorously.

Before you know it, the time has come to the middle of the night.

"Sister Yao, I didn't expect it...... I haven't seen ...... for three years You've become so prodigious, I'm a brother...... It's not as good as that! "Yuan Ran has not been drunk until now, five catties and one jar of bamboo leaf green wine, he has already drunk three altars.

When Yuan Junyao saw Yuan Ran's appearance, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart.

It took a full fifteen catties to get drunk, which shows how good Yuan Ran's alcohol is now. And the amount of alcohol can only be practiced by drinking regularly.

In the past, Yuan Ran didn't drink a drop of wine.

It is not difficult to imagine that after breaking his arm, Yuan Ran must have been relying on alcohol to numb himself.

This night, Yuan Ran drank so much that he couldn't drink anymore, so he fell asleep directly on the wine table.

"Cousin, don't worry, when my cultivation recovers to a certain stage, I will reshape your cultivation and rebirth with a broken arm for you." Yuan Junyao looked at Yuan Ran, who was drunk and fell asleep, and muttered, coldly, her eyes froze again, "As for the person who abolished you, no matter who he is or what background he has, I will make him pay the most tragic price!" ”

……

After helping Yuan Ran to the bed to rest, Yuan Junyao slowly walked to the courtyard outside.

At this time, there was less than an hour left before dawn, and vaguely, the dawn of the eastern sky could already be seen.

"The exercises I have cultivated are all cultivated by innate beings, and right now, I must cultivate some exercises of mortal cultivators!"

The creatures of the immortal realm, from birth, are innate beings, and in the words of the Feather Spirit Continent, they are the walkers of the innate realm.

The walker level of the Feather Spirit Continent is divided into the Yuan Infant Realm, the Star Moon Realm, and the Star Spirit Realm in the initial stage.

Above the Star Spirit Realm, there is the Innate Realm, that is, the Innate Beings of the Immortal Realm.

Strictly speaking, congenital beings are no longer considered human beings in the ordinary sense, because every innate soul has a lifespan of more than 500 years.

Yuan Junyao's current cultivation has fallen to the third order of the Yuan Infant Realm, and the immortal realm exercises that he had cultivated before were fundamentally difficult to perform with his current cultivation.

If Yuan Junyao wants to speed up his recovery, in addition to relying on pills, he must also practice mortal exercises.

For example, Yuan Junyao's current situation is like a baby, although there is an indestructible divine weapon beside him, but with the strength of a baby, he can't hold this divine weapon at all.

If a baby wants to use a divine weapon, he must grow up to a certain stage before he has the strength to pick up a divine weapon.

In the same way, if Yuan Junyao wanted to use the Immortal Method (Immortal Realm Exercises), he would at least have to restore his cultivation to the Innate Realm.
