Three days had already passed since that chaotic night. The undercurrents were surging in the Celestial City. Regarding the events that happened that day, everyone had different opinions. Even if the major clans were powerful, how could they keep their mouths shut?
The Fair family was undoubtedly dispirited. Three demigods were killed, it could be said that they suffered a disastrous loss. Half of their mansion was razed to the ground, their reputation was completely swept away.
The strength of the tiger family was obvious to all. Although they were far away in the Middle Earth, all the major powers in the south had no choice but to be careful when dealing with them. Other than the Undying Sect and Dugu family, there was practically no other family that could contend against them.
What was rare was that the tiger family did not gain any advantage in this matter. It was a loss of prestige that had been passed down for thousands of years.
The commotion was turbulent, the news spread throughout the south very quickly. Everyone was discussing it spiritedly. The major clans had no better way to deal with the negative news. It was impossible to shut them out.
Xiao Chen slaughtered everyone in the end. Admittedly, he was the focal point of everyone's discussion, but more of the topic was still the snow-white little critter. The unusual phenomenon that descended from the sky and the extravagance of half an ancestor god had caused a huge commotion. Many people predicted that the world of immortals would be in chaos in the next few decades.
The origin of the little critter was too unusual!
Back then, when Buddha, Laozi, and the others were killed, this kind of phenomenon also appeared. It had once caused a calamity to befall the world for a hundred years. And this time, perhaps an even greater calamity would be opened.
The rumor was spreading in the south.
And those who truly understood the hidden story, like the old ancestor of the tiger family and the old antiques of the south, could only shake their heads in silence. While the whole south was in an uproar, Xiao Chen's whereabouts were unknown. Nobody in the Celestial City knew his final whereabouts.
The fresh flowers, the fragrance of the grass, mixed with the smell of the earth, made people feel even more vivid and real.
Hot tears welled up in his eyes. Xiao Chen gazed in front of him. He looked at his white-haired parents and that familiar elegant figure. He couldn't believe this was real.
Could it be that he had really returned to his hometown after shattering the void?
When Xiao Chen concentrated and walked forward step by step, everything disappeared. The sky was still azure, the flowers and plants were still fragrant, the surrounding scenery was still the same. It was really similar to his hometown. However, his white-haired parents and that elegant figure had already disappeared. The village had already disappeared a long time ago.
"It was just a dream after all …"
Xiao Chen looked at the sky and sighed, "Why did it feel so real earlier?"
Walking forward, he saw a beautiful sea of flowers in front of him. As far as the eye could see, the colorful flowers and plants filled this land with spiritual energy.
There were also many small animals that were not startled by humans curiously sizing him up. There were snow-white long-eared rabbits and multicolored deer. They ran around Xiao Chen.
Dense Spirit Qi. Like thin smoke, it lingered among the flowers and grass. Under the illumination of the sun, it was as gorgeous as the sunset.
"What is this place?"
Xiao Chen was filled with doubts. This place was like a pure land that had come out of the secular world; there was no worldly aura. Even small animals were not startled by humans. It was really a little surprising.
The real Immortal Realm was like this. Spiritual Qi floated in the air, and it was as beautiful as a painting.
Xiao Chen soared into the air, wanting to see everything clearly from the sky. The instant he soared high into the sky, he suddenly felt like there were three more suns around him. He lost his sense of direction.
Confusion!
This was not an ordinary place. There was a mysterious power that could make people lose themselves. Xiao Chen felt that the sky was very colorful. Many flowers and trees actually appeared in his surroundings.
This made him incomparably stunned. The plants floating in the sky were like the flowers and plants on the ground. Dense Spirit Qi lingered around them.
Could it be that this place was enveloped by a huge illusion formation?
Xiao Chen did not rush in recklessly. He slowly landed on the fragrant grass. When he raised his head again … There was only a gentle red sun hanging in the sky. Everything he saw earlier had disappeared.
This was not a simple place. Xiao Chen sighed. He chose a direction and walked forward with large strides.
After walking for more than two hours, he discovered that he had returned to the starting point. There were still traces of him lying on the ground when he fainted.
"What kind of place have I arrived at?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
He calmed down and used his heart to sense everything in his surroundings. At this time, his body suddenly blossomed with multicolored light. The rainbow-colored sacred tree was slowly swaying in his body.
The sacred tree actually did not leave his body. However, it had already lost its connection with the nine divinized acupoints. Xiao Chen could no longer borrow the divine power. After pondering for a while, Xiao Chen guided the sacred tree to appear. The treasured tree trembled in his hand. The dense Spirit Qi in the surroundings were all scattered. It was as if the dense fog had been broken. Xiao Chen felt that the scene before him suddenly became clear. He had a sense of direction again.
Without any hesitation, he carried the treasured tree and flew forward at a low altitude.
Just like that, he flew for five hundred miles. He could already see the forest in front. He was finally about to fly out of the sea of flowers.
At the border of the sea of flowers, there was a low stone mountain towering there. There were a few big ancient words carved on it: Bewildering Sea of Flowers.
The words were written with iron hooks and silver strokes, bold and powerful. This was what Xiao Chen recognized after thinking for a while, as the characters were very ancient.
"So, this pure land behind me is called Bewildering Sea of Flowers. This is rather appropriate."
In front of him, the verdant forest did not seem desolate. On the contrary, it was somewhat tranquil and peaceful.
"Did you come out from the Bewildering Sea of Flowers?"
A delicate and charming voice that carried a trace of doubt resounded from not far away.
Xiao Chen turned his head to look and saw a young girl like an orchid in a deserted valley. Her temperament was out of this world as she quietly stood among the flowering trees.
The eyes were the window to a person's soul. Her limpid eyes were incomparably pure. Her long eyelashes fluttered, making her look lovable and innocent. Her fine nose was straight, her red lips were sparkling and moist, and her snow-white teeth were glistening like pearls.
The young girl's delicate body was like a jade willow, light and tender. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was perfect. Her long black hair was as bright as ink. It naturally draped over her waist. She was dressed in white, she was as beautiful as a fairy that walked out of a painting.
The young girl could be said to be extremely graceful and beautiful. Her temperament was out of this world. She was currently looking at Xiao Chen curiously. As her long eyelashes fluttered, her pair of big eyes blinked. They were filled with a pure and spiritual radiance.
It was like a gentle breeze gently brushing past. The young girl with the otherworldly temperament gave people a breathtaking feeling. She was like a pure white immortal flower on top of a misty immortal mountain. She stood out from the masses.
"Uncle, why aren't you saying anything?"
The voice that sounded like the sound of nature carried a trace of doubt.
Uncle? Xiao Chen was stunned. He touched his snow-white long hair and suddenly became speechless.
"Uncle, you have already walked out of the Bewildering Sea of Flowers. Everything here is no longer an illusion."
Speaking until here, the young girl took out a jade bottle from the bamboo basket in the crook of her arm and said, "Uncle, drink some Spirit Cleansing Water. That way, you will be able to get rid of the illusion very quickly."
After saying that, she lightly raised her wrist. She carefully threw it over. It was obvious that she was a little cautious and didn't want to get too close.
Xiao Chen picked up the jade bottle and opened it. Immediately, he smelled a refreshing fragrance. He gulped it down with a 'gudong gudong' sound. After the great sorrow, he had not drunk any water or rice for three days. He was really a little thirsty. After he finished drinking. His whole body felt comfortable. All the pores on his body seemed to have opened up. He could feel that the Spirit Cleansing Water was not an ordinary item. It had already swept away his fatigue.
"Uncle, you can really drink."
The young girl's bright eyes were kind. With a light smile, it made people feel as if they were bathing in the spring breeze. It was a very infectious smile, like the clear spring in the desert. It was like an oasis in the Gobi Desert. It made people's eyes light up.
Xiao Chen returned the jade bottle to the young girl. With a very calm tone, he asked, "Am I really that old? I'm only a few years older than you. "
The young girl who was like an orchid in a deserted valley nodded her head seriously. Then she shook her head and said, "Young uncle."
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. This otherworldly girl was really special. However, it was very easy for people to have a good impression of her.
After experiencing all kinds of dangers in the Celestial City, seeing this kind of girl brimming with spiritual energy was like seeing a spring of life flowing on the parched earth.
"What is this place?"
"This is heaven."
The young girl revealed a mischievous smile. Two dimples appeared on her cheeks. She looked a little playful and adorable.
"What about you?"
"Of course I am an angel in heaven."
Meeting such a mischievous girl, Xiao Chen couldn't help but reveal a smile and said, "Tell me quickly, this is very important to me."
"Oh. Alright. This is a pure land. It's a place where some old grandpas and grannies live in seclusion. Uncle, how did you find this place? "
The young girl blinked her big eyes in a daze. Her long eyelashes trembled, and her pretty nose wrinkled. She looked very lively and adorable.
"I also don't know how I got into this place. Is this place very far from the Celestial City?"
"So far!"
The young girl looked at Xiao Chen in astonishment and said, "The Southern Wasteland is at least fifty thousand miles away from here. Uncle, how did you run so far?"
Xiao Chen rubbed his temples. He felt an indescribable tiredness. Even though the Spirit Cleansing Water had already washed away his fatigue, he still felt sleepy at this moment. He knew it was a physical pain, but it was more of a spiritual one.
"Uncle, let's go to our village first. You don't seem to be in a good state."
"Thank you."
Xiao Chen silently followed the white-clothed girl as they made their way through the beautiful forest filled with spiritual energy.
"Uncle, do you have something on your mind? If you don't pay attention to where you are going, you are going to crash into a big tree. "
After being reminded by her, Xiao Chen dodged instinctively. As a result, the young girl laughed lightly, "Uncle, you are really funny. I lied to you, why don't you pay attention to where you are going?"
"Uncle is very tired."
"Young uncle, cheer up, don't be so lethargic. Don't you see how beautiful this forest is? Grandpa said that every ancient tree here is intelligent. There is even a spiritual root that was planted by the Fuxi Ancestral God back then. If you can find it, it can resolve all of a person's worries and fulfill all of their wishes. "
Along the way, the young girl was singing and laughing merrily. She ran here and there agilely. Even if she ran into a deer, she would still greet it in a friendly manner. Other than all kinds of medicinal herbs, the bamboo basket was also filled with all kinds of wildflowers.
"Uncle, it's rare for me to meet someone I don't know. Can you tell me about the interesting things in this world? The young girl was very lively, just like a fairy. She was very cheerful and full of vigor from the beginning to the end.
"Uncle, why aren't you saying anything?"
"Plop!"
Xiao Chen's vision darkened as he fell into the thicket of flowers and trees.
"Ah, uncle, what happened to you?"
The young girl nimbly bypassed a few ancient trees and quickly ran over. She helped Xiao Chen up and said in astonishment, "Young uncle, your life force is very weak. It seems like you don't have long to live. "
The young girl's slender jade-like fingers slid lightly. A sparkling and translucent radiance sprinkled down and enveloped Xiao Chen within. After that, she used her heavenly voice to hum an unknown song as she walked forward in an agile manner. Xiao Chen floated up from the sparkling and translucent radiance and followed behind her.
After walking for about ten miles, the beautiful forest gradually became sparse. A fresh and clean little village appeared in front of them. The spiritual energy was drifting in that place, and the multicolored clouds were speckled. It was really like a fairyland.
There were pavilions, small bridges, flowing water, and the fragrance of flowers and grass. The scenery was incomparably beautiful.
The little village seemed to have only a few dozen households. All of them were small wooden houses that looked like big mushrooms. There were even divine vines crawling all over the top of the houses. The bright flowers were swaying gently. Specks of divine splendor were swaying in the wind.
The young girl ran to the front of a courtyard with two small wooden houses. She pushed open the bamboo fence door and said cheerfully and somewhat mischievously, "Grandpa, I'm back."
"Qing Qing is back."
A white-haired old man with a youthful complexion pushed open the wooden door and walked into the courtyard.
"Yeah, grandpa, I picked up an uncle."
The reason why Xiao Chen fainted was because he had lost too much of his life energy. Many of the organs in his body had aged severely. Although it had not appeared on the surface yet, his qi and blood were clearly very weak. This time, he fainted for no less than half a month. During this period of time, he could vaguely hear the words of an old man.
"If not for that treasured tree hiding in his body, he might have been in danger. In addition, there are nine very strange acupoints in his body that are providing him with a trace of life energy. Otherwise, with his remaining lifespan, it would be very difficult to maintain the normal operation of all of his organs. "
"This young uncle is so pitiful."
Just like that, another half a month passed. Only then did Xiao Chen gradually show signs of waking up.
And at this time, it had already been more than a month since that fateful night. The Celestial City had just calmed down, and another piece of news was spread out. The Fair family and the Tiger family were going to unite by marriage. Although the two families had not officially announced it yet. However, the news had already spread to the outside world. One of the twin pearls of the Southern Wasteland, Fairsnow, was going to be engaged to the seventh son of the Tiger family. The marriage would be completed within a year.
This sensational news undoubtedly caused a turbulent undercurrent in the Celestial City. Without a doubt, undercurrents began to surge in the Celestial City. Many people could see the strength of the tiger clan. They had already extended their hands from the distant Middle Earth to the Southern Wasteland. Were they truly expanding their influence, or were they just probing the dragons of the Southern Wasteland? Nobody knew.
Xiao Chen had been drowsy for a month, he was finally going to wake up. On this day, the sound of a dragon's roar transmitted from outside the fairyland-like village. The sound was like rolling thunder, it broke the peace and tranquility of this place.
However, the elders who lived here did not show any anger. They were still as calm as an ancient well. Those who should be reading continued to read, those who should be walking their birds, and those who should be training continued to train.
The girl who brought Xiao Chen back happily pushed open the gate and ran towards the outside of the village.
A two meter long black dragon was flickering with black light from a distant place. It was like a black cloud as it rushed over at high speed. It had the head of an Ancestral Dragon, the body of a liger, and the tail of an Ancestral Dragon. Its entire body was covered in black armor.
"Blackie, why did you take so long to get here?"
Qing Qing gently caressed the black dragon's head and happily mounted it.
The strange thing was, the incomparably arrogant dragon king that never allowed anyone to ride on it was not angry at all. On the contrary, it leaped onto the treetop with the girl and stepped on the branches and leaves. It was as if they were flying, leaving one afterimage after another in the sky above the forest.
At a distant place, a simple-minded fatty was currently running over with his forehead full of sweat. He waved his hand at the black dragon that was soaring in the forest.
"Brother fatty, how could you lock Blackie up for so long and not let him come and see me?"
"I went through a life and death calamity with him recently."
The fatty panted heavily in the forest.
"We went to the sacred mountain. I have fused five beast souls into one now. Blackie even captured a strand of draconic aura, as well as the soul of an ancient beast king. "
The fatty's excitement was undisguised. The girl's mouth was wide open as she said in surprise, "You guys went to the ancient altar on the sacred mountain? That was a genuine ancient beast soul! Brother fatty, you are too awesome, you actually fused five beast souls into one. "
"Luck, hehe. Didn't you see it? Blackie has grown from one and a half meters to two meters. This time, his harvest is bigger than mine. "
"Oh, that's right. He was only one meter long when he followed you guys from the dragon island. He really improved a lot in a year."
The girl nodded her head and said, "Oh right, brother fatty, I picked up a strange uncle."
"Picked … up?"
Clearly, the fatty revealed a bewildered expression and said, "What kind of person can barge into the pure land?"
"He seemed to have barged through the Sea of Bewildering Flowers."
"What, there is actually someone so powerful that he could barge through that terrifying place?"
"Hehe, I will bring you to take a look. That young uncle is very handsome."
After arriving at the small wooden hut, the fatty immediately cried out in surprise, "Xiao Chen … how could it be him?"
"Huh? You know that pitiful uncle?"
"Of course I know him. We are friends who have gone through life and death together. It is all thanks to him. Otherwise, our clan would have all died in the hands of the demon. "
At this time, Xiao Chen was also about to wake up. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw a familiar face. A simple-minded fatty was smiling at him.
"Niu … ren?"
"It's me! Xiao Chen, what happened to you? Motherf * cker, who injured you like this? Tell me, this grandpa Niu is going to kill him! "
Qingqing pulled Oxman's sleeves and transmitted her voice with her divine sense, "He lost a lot of life essence."
"It's nothing, what are you afraid of! Go to that mysterious sacred mountain, we might be able to summon an ancestor god's soul. At that time, we won't be able to exhaust our life force even after several lifetimes. "
Oxman saw Xiao Chen's weakness and patted his chest to console him.
A coughing sound came from outside, Qingqing's grandfather walked in. As if he was teasing a child, he rubbed Oxman's chubby cheeks and said with a beaming smile, "A child's words carry no harm. If a child doesn't understand, then don't speak carelessly. It is not good to anger the ancient beast soul of the sacred mountain."
