Chapter 9: Larvae

When Zhang Xiaoqi and his party walked through the steps of the ninety-nine return to the truth, they came to the main entrance of the main hall, the two high vermilion doors have been opened and closed at the doorposts on both sides, and the phoenix-tailed Hades Butterfly Mochen who led did not stay, crossed the threshold that was somewhat too high relative to Zhang Xiaoqi, and continued to walk towards the hall, Tianma Jili followed, Zhang Xiaoqi looked up at the four ancient seal characters on the lintel with some trepidation, Zhang Xiaoqi didn't know what was written, but felt the ancient meaning of the vicissitudes of time coming, the glyph was magnificent, Zhang Xiaoqi didn't dare to stay, and crossed the threshold with some effort and walked into the hall;

The main hall is very large, very deep, a few thick vermilion pillars on both sides have been extending inward, the intricate carved heraldic on the pillar Xiao Qi did not pay attention to watching, and continued to follow Mo Chen and Ji Li to walk inward. Ji Li led Zhang Xiaoqi to stop in front of a futon, the two separated left and right, revealing a glazed blackened tribute table behind the futon, with a copper-colored three-legged tripod placed in the middle of it, on the left is a black feather fan that looks like a phoenix tail, and on the right side of the tripod is a white jade Ruyi with a warm color, Ruyi's jade head is a butterfly, looking at the shape of the butterfly is somewhat similar to Mo Chen, whether there is any connection, Zhang Xiaoqi doesn't know,;

There is a portrait about three feet high hanging on the wall behind the tribute table, the portrait is a middle-aged man in an azure robe, with a slender body, a face like a crown of jade, three long hairs like ink floating on his chest, with an elegant smile, and his eyes are as deep as the vicissitudes of life, when Zhang Xiaoqi looks at the portrait, the elegant man on the portrait looks at Zhang Xiaoqi as if he is alive, and the deep and vicissitudes of life make Zhang Xiaoqi dare not look directly, holding a phoenix tail feather fan in his left hand, and a white jade Ruyi with a butterfly head on his waist;

"Sage, kneel" Mo Chen, who turned into a black palace beauty, said to Zhang Xiaoqi:

"Greetings to the Taoist" Mo Chen and Ji Li waited for Zhang Xiaoqi to kneel on the futon, then turned around and bowed to the portrait;

Suddenly, the elegant man on the portrait stood in front of the futon where Zhang Xiaoqi was kneeling after a burst of blue light, looked at Zhang Xiaoqi who was stunned with a smile, and said:

"Yes, yes, the heart of a child, you can pass on my mantle for my disciples" said and patted Zhang Xiaoqi's little head three times, then turned his head to look at Mo Chen and Ji Li on the left and right of the futon, and said:

"Two Taoist friends, I haven't seen you for a long time, Mo Chen don't be sad, the origin and extinction are the number of fate, the three of us have been together for hundreds of thousands of years to seek immortality, along the way, too many vicissitudes and ups and downs have not broken us apart, this catastrophe may be beyond my expectations, but the three thousand avenues still leave us a glimmer of life, and did not annihilate us all, we will meet again, later my repeated remnant soul will turn into the six realms, reincarnation, our fate may continue, there is no time for cultivation, take him on the road to immortality......”

With the gradually softer voice, the elegant man standing in front of Zhang Xiaoqi's kneeling futon disappeared after a burst of cyan starlight drifted away, but the words were still echoing in his ears, and the elegant man in the portrait on the wall also disappeared, leaving only a blank;

"Sage, the remnant soul you just saw is the Taoist master of me and Jili, the name can't be said to you now, the Taoist master has agreed to accept you as his mantle heir, I just hope that you will not live up to the love of the Taoist master, strengthen your Dao heart, and I will accompany you with Jili on the road to eternal life" There were two tears on Mo Chen's bright face that slipped gently, the voice was not loud but his intention was firm, and Ji Li opposite Mo Chen also had scarlet eyes, holding back tears;

Zhang Xiaoqi didn't speak, although it was just a short conversation just now, which contained too many meanings that he didn't understand, but the depressed and affectionate atmosphere also infected him, and he resolutely bent down and knocked heavily on the blank portrait, 'bang', 'bang', 'bang' three times with all his might:

"The master is above, and the disciple Zhang Shengzhe will meet you" The immature voice echoed in the deep and empty main hall space, Zhang Xiaoqi's forehead was blue and red, and quietly swollen, Mo Chen and Ji Li saw such a solemn Zhang Xiaoqi, with a smile on their faces, pulled Zhang Xiaoqi to stand up, led him to the side hall, and explained to Zhang Xiaoqi, although this vast space now belongs to Zhang Xiaoqi, but Zhang Xiaoqi still has a limited knowledge of here, with Mo Chen and Ji Li's story, Zhang Xiaoqi finally has a general understanding of this space cave, and can't help but agree with what Mo Chen just said, but Zhang Xiaoqi's understanding of love is still different from what Mo Chen said......

"Oh, Sister Mo Chen, Brother Ji Li, can I control this cave now?" Zhang Xiaoqi turned his head and looked at Mo Chen and Ji Li expectantly:

"How is it possible, hehe" Mo Chen said and pinched Zhang Xiaoqi's little nose with a hand as shiny as jade, and after speaking, he looked at Ji Li, who was also full of smiles:

"You are still just a beginner of Dao Spirit, and you haven't started to practice yet, where does the spiritual power control this cave, Sage" Ji Li's voice said to Zhang Xiaoqi with a smile, Ji Li just learned about Zhang Xiaoqi's spiritual process with Mo Chen's secret technique, and he was also puzzled, but he didn't delve into it;

"Then how can I start practicing, Sister Mo Chen, Brother Ji Li?" Zhang Xiaoqi said with some eagerness, Mo Chen is Zhang Xiaoqi's Dao spirit, Ji Li didn't speak, waiting for Mo Chen to explain to Zhang Xiaoqi;

"I will teach you the exercises of the Taoist master, don't worry, sage, the road to the cultivation of immortality is long, you will slowly understand, I will first tell you some basic overview of the cultivation world, basically all the exercises in the cultivation world can only be practiced with spiritual roots, without spiritual roots can not be practiced at all, I don't know how many thousands of years have been like this, like a moat insurmountable, until the Taoist appeared, only to break this kind of heaven and earth rules, the Taoist himself does not have a spiritual root, but has the unprecedented high intelligence, the Taoist spent half a life reading all the Taoist classics he can find in the world, only in an accidental sleep in the Taoist heart dream butterfly, to plant a spiritual seed, and then turned into a butterfly and embarked on the path of cultivation, and the sage of your Dao heart is a little similar to the Dao Master, so he became the successor of the Dao Master's mantle" After speaking, he looked at Zhang Xiaoqi, Zhang Xiaoqi's mind suddenly appeared in the Dao Mind Cocoon where he was when he first met Mo Chen, he also broke the spirit cocoon and came here, and suddenly said:

"Sister Mo Chen, then I also turned into a cocoon, why didn't I turn into a butterfly?" Mo Chen's face suddenly stiffened, his face turned dark and looked at Zhang Xiaoqi, and he roared in a low voice:

"Zhang Shengzhe, you little brat, do you still want to turn a cocoon into a butterfly? Are you just a cocoon adult, or a small larva, want to become a butterfly, and wait, you stop Ben Die, Ben Die will beat your ass...... "As he spoke, a black and purple light flashed...... to be continued
