Chapter 57: After the Storm
The ups and downs of Qingkong Mountain have finally passed, leaving only a devastated mountain.
The birth of the emperor and the duel of the immortals, these two things alone were enough to shake the world, and the cultivation world, which had been silent for more than six million years, was boiling because of this, and there was a lot of discussion all over the world.
Among them, Su Chen's name has also been mentioned many times.
Especially after the news that the emperor took away Su Chen in the end was revealed, it caused a sensation, the two great emperors of the East Wilderness and the North and the Netherworld were blessed, and the mysterious emperor weapon that appeared at the end was called the "inheritor", and finally, the Xiaoding also took him away.
For a long time, everything about Qingkong Mountain was a hot topic in the world, and there were some things that couldn't be hidden even if those absolute immortals wanted to.
Where was Su Chen taken by the imperial weapon?
No one knew this, at that time, the emperor was in the world, and all the absolute immortals were suppressed so that they couldn't move, and they had no way or dared to explore Su Chen's movements.
As a result, Su Chen's whereabouts became a mystery again.
After Li Chungang returned to Daowu Palace, he intensified his wanted arrest for Su Chen, and the sects and forces related to him were looking for Su Chen all over the world.
The Eastern Wilderness, the Northern Darkness, and the Immortal Hall did not react to this, and at that time, the three principals would target Li Chungang more because of their positions, not all for Su Chen's personal sake. Now that Su Chen is missing, and there is an imperial weapon with him, they naturally don't need to worry about Su Chen's affairs anymore.
The juniors of the various forces have naturally returned to their own families.
Among them, the most unwilling was Xiyue, although Elder Shu repeatedly assured that Su Chen was safe and sound, she couldn't put her mind at ease. Originally, she wanted to find a chance to slip away and go to Su Chen by herself, but the Great Elder sent Elder Shadow Moon to keep an eye on her, and she didn't give her a chance at all, so she had no choice but to go back to the Northern Underworld with the large army, and the Great Elder also said that if Xiyue wanted to go out, she must cultivate into the Yuan Infant Stage, otherwise she would be grounded.
This made Xiyue frown.
As for Long Qingyan, after he learned the situation clearly from Ao Guang, he calmed down, because he understood that his cultivation was not enough to be placed in the cultivation realm. After experiencing the battle of Qingkong Mountain, he felt even more deeply, in that situation, the preparations they had made in advance were not useful at all, and it was better to be strong enough and more secure. In particular, he also has important things to do, so no matter how much he doesn't like Donghuang, he also decided not to go out for the time being, at least until he enters the Yuan Infant Period, and then discusses the matter about Xuan Yu with the high priest, and then he will return to Kyushu to find Su Chen.
The Palace of Eternal Life, located in the Purple Mountain outside the city of Jinling in Yangzhou, this is the world's famous Lingshan treasure land, since the era of the Emperor Ling, the Palace of Eternal Life has been established here, and since then it has become the first major sect in the south of Kyushu.
Legend has it that in that most turbulent era, the patriarch of the Hall of Eternal Life followed the emperor to conquer the world, and Bai Weiyang, one of the patriarchs of the Founding School, once approached the most extreme realm, but unfortunately did not create an era that belonged to her after all. Later, the emperor of the world thanked Bai Weiyang and others for their contributions to the common people in the world, supported them to start a sect, and left the inheritance of the Palace of Eternal Life.
When Bai Weiyang and others chose the site, they chose the Purple Mountain. With the support of the emperor, everything went smoothly, and the Palace of Eternal Life became famous, although there were not many people in the past dynasties, but the foundation was profound, and the core people were very extraordinary, so the Palace of Eternal Life has continued until now.
In the Purple Mountain, there is only the Hall of Eternal Life.
At this time, in the back mountain of the Purple Mountain, among the important places of the sect, Gong Yiyu was summoned here.
The palace here is in pieces, the aura is steaming, and it has almost turned into a tangible substance. The back mountain is where the retreat and cultivation of the elders of the Hall of Eternal Life are, and at the same time, there are many rare elixir immortals here, and there are many precious classics, which is the foundation of a faction.
"Yiyu, this time the old hall master has summoned you an important task. Luo Yunshang came with her, explaining some information to her on the way, "You are the most outstanding of the young disciples, take advantage of the opportunity." ”
"Yes. Gong Yiyu nodded, looking at the fairyland-like place, and his mind was inexplicable.
......
When Su Chen woke up, he found himself lying on a bamboo bed. He was confused for a long time before he reacted, and he was no longer in Qingkong Mountain.
He was in a bamboo house, which made him think he was back in the Bamboo Sword Valley, but the various furnishings in the bamboo house reminded him that this was not the Bamboo Sword Valley.
Su Chen walked out of the bamboo house with a stomach full of doubts, the sun was shining outside, insects and birds were chirping, and the fragrance of medicine was fragrant, this was a small courtyard, a courtyard located in an unknown valley.
"Where is this?" Su Chen grabbed the back of his head.
There is a medicine garden in the courtyard, which is very large, and the rich medicinal fragrance comes from there. Su Chen smelled it, felt refreshed, and walked to the medicine garden.
His eyes soon lit up, this medicine garden was very peculiar, there was an elixir planted in it, and other than that, it was basically an ordinary medicinal herb, which could be found everywhere in the mortal world.
"Who is so extravagant, using an elixir to nourish ordinary herbs. Su Chen was speechless, looking left and right, he still found some rare things, but this rarity was limited to those ordinary medicinal herbs.
But there is one herb that is obviously out of the ordinary category, it grows in the corner of the medicine garden, it is left and independent, with green leaves and red flowers, six leaves, and seven petals of flowers, and there is an empty piece around it, there are no other herbs, not even weeds and the like, which is very peculiar.
"Isn't this an abstinence flower?" Su Chen looked at this strange flower, he really didn't expect to see it.
The name of the abstinence flower comes from its effect, the seven petals of the flower correspond to the seven feelings of the person, and the six leaves correspond to the six desires, it is said that the person who eats this flower will become pure and have few desires before the effect of the medicine passes, and it is good for the cultivation of enlightenment, with the help of the abstinence flower practice, to some extent, it can prevent the nuisance of the demons, but if there are already demons, the abstinence flower is useless. What's even more peculiar is that when a person has a certain desire to swell, if he eats a leaf, it can still have a miraculous effect.
Therefore, the abstinence flower is a very peculiar elixir.
"Who the hell is the owner here? Su Chen stood up and looked around, he remembered that he was taken away by the second uncle, so the second uncle probably knew the answer.
However, what about the second uncle?
He walked towards the outside of the courtyard, the scenery in the valley was beautiful, like a paradise, out of the courtyard to the right, there was a lake, the lake water was waist deep, crystal clear, a small waterfall hung on the lake, the sound of the water tinkling, pleasant, there was a big stone on the shore, half soaked in the lake.
"Well, this lake water is just right for bathing!" Su Chen nodded and muttered to himself.
The water was too clear, but there were no fish, Su Chen wanted to catch a fish and grill it to eat, but he didn't even see a single fry.
"The yard, the medicine garden, the lake. Su Chen had some associations, "This won't be someone else's hermitage, right?
He suddenly remembered a person, someone who hadn't heard from him for a long time, Miss Qingli.
"My sister must have loved this place, but I don't know where she is now and how she is doing. Su Chen sighed, Qingli has a very important position in his heart, that kind, humble and not humble woman has changed his life, if there is no Qingli, Su Chen will not leave that closed small mountain village, he will not enter the Tao and practice, and become the current him.
"Alas, I'm now unjustly wanted by the master, so don't go to Sister Qingli. Su Chen sat on the shore of the lake, out of his mind, "I can't even go back to my hometown, what if I get involved in the village?"
He was very sad in his heart, he couldn't find his relatives, he couldn't go back to his hometown, all of this stemmed from the culprit, and it also came from his own lack of strength.
After being stunned for a while, Su Chen sighed, looked at the clear lake water, and decided to take a bath, maybe taking a soak in the cold water can make him better think about what to do in the future, and by the way, he can sort out some of the things that happened in Qingkong Mountain before, because there are too many doubts.
Just as he took off his clothes and was about to step into the water with one foot, a big wave suddenly set off in the lake, knocking Su Chen to the ground!
"Who is it?!" Su Chen jumped up and quickly got dressed.
"Your second uncle, I!" a small statue appeared in the lake, "What do you want to do, the deity is bathing, what are you doing when you are stripping naked?"
"What else can you do?" Su Chen glared, but when he saw the second uncle, he actually felt relieved.
"Get out! This is the lake where my emperor once bathed, how far away are you ants, how far can you go!" Xiao Ding became angry inexplicably.
Su Chen was stunned, and he muttered, "What...... What, the lake where the emperor bathed, so this is where your master once lived?"
Xiao Ding snorted: "My emperor once lived in seclusion here with a friend, strictly speaking, it was left by my emperor's old friend, but it was later given to my emperor. ”
Su Chen was even more stunned and asked, "When did this happen?"
Xiao Ding said: "The old things of millions of years ago, when my emperor had not yet become an emperor. ”
Su Chen's eyes rolled, thinking back to the historical materials he had read in the classics of the master's sect, but the time that Xiao Ding said was too vague, and he couldn't determine which era it was, let alone who Xiao Ding's master was.
Xiao Ding saw that he was thinking, and said disdainfully: "With your experience, I can't guess the identity of my emperor." ”
Su Chen: "......" Fuck your uncle!
"Then why did you just soak in the water?" asked Su Chen with a roll of his eyes.
"The deity is reminiscing about the time when I fought the world with my emperor. Xiao Ding said half-melancholy and half-excitedly, "Since the suppression of the prophecy book, the deity has not seen our emperor for a long time, and I miss it very much. However, his tone changed, and he continued with disgust: "Damn, now that I am finally free, as a result, your kid appeared, and the deity can't return to my emperor as soon as possible, alas. ”
"It's my business!" Su Chen shouted, "I was just about to ask you what's going on?"
"Naturally, my emperor wants to sharpen you. Xiao Ding said angrily, "Although you are the son of destiny chosen by my emperor, and the deity is responsible for tempering you, however, you kid is too disrespectful to the deity. I want to follow my emperor back then, and I don't want to be offered up like an ancestor wherever I go, but your kid even called out the second uncle, damn, what does my emperor like about you. ”
Su Chen was speechless, how could these two masters care.
"What a child of destiny, you said it so mysteriously. Su Chen frowned, this was where he was most puzzled.
"This question, when you have the opportunity to meet our emperor in the future, you will get an answer, the deity is only responsible for tempering you, and nothing else. Xiao Ding said.
"Okay, then you tell me, who is that black-robed man?" Su Chen stared at Xiao Ding and asked, "Is it your ghost, or something else?"
"Hehe, I said I was going to give you a greeting gift. Xiao Ding said with a smile, "I left some of my power on you, and deliberately turned into a form to betray you when you were blocked by some little immortals." ”
"You!" Su Chen jumped to his feet angrily, "It turns out that you are tempting me! I had already agreed if I knew it, maybe I would be able to slaughter Li Chungang." ”
"Hmph, if you really accept my offer, I'll kill you on the spot. Xiao Ding said coldly, "What my emperor wants is not someone who can sell his heart for selfish desires. ”
Su Chen was awe-inspiring, and the second master really exuded a little killing intent at this moment.
For a while, both of them were a little silent, in the face of the enemy, it was not easy for him to hold back, he didn't care what Xiao Ding said, as long as he could take revenge, it didn't matter if he died, he was afraid that Xiao Ding would kill him before he could take revenge.
Xiao Ding understood Su Chen's thoughts, if Su Chen really chose to exchange for power at that time, Xiao Ding would definitely help him, but he would never leave him afterwards, whether it was the master's order or not, Xiao Ding would do it, the person chosen by the master could not be a scourge, even if it was just this possibility.
"Alright, let's start practicing without any doubts. Xiao Ding broke the silence, "The refinement period should be based on meditation and enlightenment, here you can cultivate with peace of mind, I will give you enough time, wait for you to enter the Yuan Infant Stage before proceeding to the next stage of cultivation." ”
Su Chen nodded: "Okay, listen to you." ”
Xiao Ding said again: "The next stage of cultivation is very cruel, you had better be prepared." ”
Su Chen glanced at him and said, "Cut, will the little master be afraid?" As a result, a wave hit and slapped him on the ground again.
The second uncle said leisurely: "You'd better respect me!"
Su Chen raised his middle finger angrily......
