Of course, eating and drinking were no longer a daily necessity for cultivators. Through self-cultivation, cultivators had great control over their bodies. After ingesting, they would be able to control their consumption to the greatest extent.
However, one's spirit and cultivation were still entrusted to the physical body. Unless one could transcend the physical body, the physical body needed to be sustained by replenishing food. Otherwise, the death of the physical body would mean the collapse of one's spirit and cultivation, and the death of the person.
Therefore, breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm was every cultivator's dream. The Nascent Soul realm transcended the shackles of the body, and was the so-called immortality.
Babies symbolized new life. The Nascent Soul realm, as the name suggests, was a primitive rebirth. The Nascent Soul realm was another realm of primitive rebirth.
It was a new realm, a body that transcended the ordinary flesh and blood, and could withstand more powerful cultivation.
This was the realm that countless cultivators dreamed of, but reality was cruel. Those who stood at the top did not want to share it with others, and it was difficult to reach the top.
Perhaps the places they passed had already been swept by the people from the Misty Pavilion, and Niu Youdao and the others did not find anything.
Everyone had already spread out, and basically, they were still divided into groups, searching and killing with Niu Youdao as the center. The rendezvous point was in front, which was also the next rendezvous point that Niu Youdao pointed to on the map.
In an empty and deathly silent swamp, there were three silhouettes in the dense mist.
Niu Youdao led the two people from the Purple Golden Cave forward at a moderate speed. Along the way, they encountered a hill in the swamp. Niu Youdao landed and waved his hand, "You must be tired, let's rest."
Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie looked at each other, and Ke Dingjie smiled bitterly, "Elder, we didn't walk for long, we're not tired, we can still continue to search."
Niu Youdao had already sat down cross-legged, and reached out to pluck a beautiful black flower with golden spots. He put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and casually said, "I've been to the Mysterious Heaven Territory!"
The two looked at each other, not knowing what he meant. Qin Guan said, "We know, we heard that Elder was in the Mysterious Heaven Territory, and defeated all the sects to become the champion. We have been fascinated by it for a long time. Elder, can you tell us about the Secret Territory of Tiandu? "
Niu Youdao gestured for the two to sit down, and they immediately sat down with anticipation, interested to hear.
In reality, the two of them were much older than Niu Youdao. However, after spending some time together, the two of them had already ignored the difference in age.
Niu You said, "Fighting and killing in the arcane realm, bloody looting, it's nothing more than people killing people and robbing things. What's there to hear? Yan Li and the others have also been there. If you want to hear more, you can ask your fellow disciples."
"That's not, they know, and we won't have the chance to ask Elder Yan. Elder Niu, you may not know, but the disciples in the sect are very curious about what happened to you in the Heaven Du Mystic Realm. Many people have been paying attention to the 《Zijin Miscellany》, hoping to see your writings, but it seems that you have not written a single word. "
Niu You said, "How can you see what you want to see in public? I dare to write it, but the sect might not dare to collect it."
"Then please tell us." Ke Dingjie said.
Niu You said, "You are thinking too much. You said you weren't tired, so I mentioned that I went to the Mysterious Heaven Territory to tell you that when you encounter an unfamiliar environment, it's best to keep your body in the best condition. You came with me, so I have to bring you back in good condition to live up to the sect. "This was nonsense.
Qin Guan sighed and said, "Elder, we're not in a hurry. We can take a break in less than an hour. When will we reach the agreed place? I'm afraid we won't be able to meet the others in time."
Both of them felt that he was not here to kill the Demon Fox. They found the Demon Fox on the way, but he didn't let them chase it.
"Don't worry, they are searching everywhere. We are going straight to our destination, so we won't be late," said Niu Youdao. He picked up the flower in his hand and looked at it carefully.
While the two were feeling helpless, Ke Dingjie suddenly gestured, "Elder!"
Qin Guan took a look, and his body immediately tensed up, as if he was about to shoot out like an arrow.
Niu Youdao looked back and saw a muddy thing climbing up a small slope. With a shake of its body, it shook off the muddy water on its body, revealing a body of snow-white fur. It was a white fox.
It was said that most of the Demon Foxes here were white.
Looking back, he saw that the two were about to pounce on it. Niu Youdao asked, "Why are you so nervous?"
The two didn't make a move after discovering it because Niu Youdao kept stopping them and warned them not to make a move without his permission.
"Elder, we are not nervous. If we don't make a move, it will run away."
"It doesn't matter if it runs away, as long as the others work hard to hunt it down." Niu Youdao said indifferently. He stretched out his hand and plucked a stone from the bushes. He flicked his fingers and with a swoosh, the stone flew towards the mound. It missed its mark and hit the muddy water at the side of the mound.
Since it missed its mark, its strength was obviously limited. Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie were speechless.
What made the two even more speechless was that the demon fox actually did not run away. After being splashed with the mud, it shook its body and recovered its snow-white skin. It seemed to be very arrogant as it stood on the mound and looked at them.
"It's too arrogant!" Ke Dingjie stood up as if he couldn't stand it anymore. The Demon Foxes they met before would at least run away when they saw them, but this one was completely looking down on them. It was a provocation.
"It is a little arrogant." Niu Youdao couldn't help but chuckle. However, he turned back and gestured for Ke Dingjie to sit down.
Ke Dingjie suddenly said, "Elder, look."
Niu Youdao turned his head again and saw that the hair between the demon fox's eyebrows was splitting open. The third vertical eye revealed its true appearance. The eyeball was as beautiful as a glazed gem, and there was a golden ring around it, making it look very demonic.
It felt like the Demon Fox was telling them that they were not mistaken. It was the Demon Fox that they were hunting.
"The Demon Fox's vertical eye can see things that the naked eye can't. It's like a cultivator's dharma eye. Elder, this is exactly what we are looking for. Elder, we didn't gain anything along the way. "He was actually urging Niu Youdao to make a move.
Niu Youdao ignored him and still didn't allow them to make a move. He twisted his head and stared at the Demon Fox, observing each other.
After waiting for a while, the Demon Fox seemed to feel bored. It retracted its third vertical eye and disappeared into its white fur. Suddenly, it rushed up and drew a beautiful arc in the air. It plunged into the muddy swamp and disappeared from everyone's sight just like that.
"Sigh, it ran away." Ke Dingjie sighed and finally sat down cross-legged. He seemed to be a little unwilling.
Niu Youdao still didn't care and urged, "Hurry up and recover your mana." His eyes moved and he found a stalk of grass that he had never seen before. He threw the flower in his hand and uprooted the grass, carefully observing it.
Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie couldn't take it anymore. Qin Guan frowned and said, "Elder, forgive me for being blunt, but you don't seem to want to hunt the Demon Fox?"
Niu Youdao looked at the grass in his hand and said slowly, "I have no enmity with them. Why should I kill them?"
Holy shit, you finally said what's on your mind! Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie's expressions twitched. The two of them already knew that this elder had this tendency, but they didn't have the nerve to ask. It seemed inappropriate to point out that Elder Niu didn't respect the Saint State.
But the situation just now was too arrogant. Elder Niu was still indifferent, so they couldn't help but ask.
Ke Dingjie reminded, "Elder, this is arranged by the Saint State. Hunting the Demon Fox this time is related to the results of our training."
Niu Youdao raised his eyelids slightly, "Are you lecturing me?"
Ke Dingjie hurriedly waved his hand, "That's not what I meant. I'm just reminding Elder that even if we don't get good results, we can't be at the bottom."
"Seems like you're really trying to reason with me. Alright, then I'll use my seniority to reason with you." Niu Youdao tore the grass in his hand into two and threw it to the side. "Let me ask you, before Shang Song connected to this world, or before Shang Song passed away, who is in charge of this world?"
The two of them looked at each other. Ke Dingjie said, "It's said that the Demon Fox of this place was the overlord of this world!"
Niu Youdao said, "It's good that you know! They are existences that even the Nine Saints can't eliminate. Why are you so anxious? In the martial world, don't run around blindly in the face of wind and rain. When you come out to make a living, the strong dragon can't suppress the local snake! Is there anything in this world that the Nine Saints can't handle? The Demon Fox in front of us is one! They are the local snakes of this world. No one knows this world better than them! There's no need to offend them unless it's absolutely necessary. There's no need to offend them when there's no enmity between us. Leave them a way out, and we'll meet again in the future. This is my experience in the martial world. I'll teach you this today. Remember it! "
The two of them were speechless. Qin Guan sighed, "Elder, it's not that we're against them. This is what the Saint asked us to do. Everyone else is doing it, but if we don't, we won't be able to explain ourselves!"
Niu Youdao said, "It seems like you still don't understand the situation. Maybe you do, but you can't sort out the logical direction and make your own path to follow. All you can do is let your imagination run wild. There are no fools in this world. That's the difference between normal people. In the beginning, Ding Wei had asked everyone to write those things. But, no one knew what was going on. However, everyone suddenly understood when they heard about the competition with the Misty Pavilion. You should know what the sage realm wants. Others have no way out, but I'm different. Those things that I've written are nothing. Don't tell me that you don't want to return to your Sect? You want to join the Misty Pavilion?
The two of them were silent, thinking about his words.
Slowly, Ke Dingjie said, "Elder, we understand what you're saying. But if we don't show results, I'm afraid we won't be able to pass this test."
"What do you understand? Shallow! " Niu Youdao pointed at his own head, implying that they were muddle-headed. "Let me tell you, the reorganization of the Misty Pavilion can't be vigorous from the beginning. Things will go wrong if we use too much force. If we provoke a collective counterattack, even the Nine Saints won't be able to control the situation. It'll be a complete mess. We don't know what will happen. Otherwise, we wouldn't be the only ones here."
"If you understand this, you should have a clear judgment of what will happen next. This is just the beginning. We're destined to lose this competition! Whether it's experience or familiarity with the terrain, we're no match for the Misty Pavilion. We can't rob them. How can we win? The result has been decided from the beginning. It doesn't matter how good our results are. Do you understand? "
