"Immortal Master is recruiting disciples!"
With this loud declaration, all the residents of Weixi Town hurriedly gathered, looking towards the beam of brilliant light.
Among them was an old man with a long beard and a white face, wearing a python robe. He stepped out from within the light, hands behind his back, eyebrows slightly lowered, looking at the crowd, and said in a loud voice:
"We are cultivators from the Extraterritorial Immortal Sect. The elders have sensed the birth of a person with great fortune in your town, and have specially come to recruit disciples to join our Fuyao Immortal Sect!"
Recruiting disciples?!
As soon as these words were spoken, the residents of Weixi Town were in an uproar, not knowing who could have such great luck to directly join the Extraterritorial Immortal Sect!
You must know that the Extraterritorial Immortal Sect is a level higher than the Immortal Sect.
According to the folk storytellers who are knowledgeable and old, the Extraterritorial Immortal Sect is established in the nine heavens, between the universe,Alone Commanding the Stars, leading the world.
If you really compare it, it's much greater than the emperor on the ground.
And in their small town, there is actually a person who can join the Extraterritorial Immortal Sect, which is more shocking than having an emperor!
The old man looked around at the crowd, stretched out a hand behind him, and lightly pointed to the crowd.
The sky above the crowd seemed to appear on the water surface, reflecting different colors, with shades and sizes.
This is a simple water fortune-telling technique, which can see a person's specific fortune, but it has lost its effect at this time.
Because everyone's fortune color and size are almost the same.
The old man squinted slightly, and the great fortune person detected by the Tianji Order this time is not to be underestimated. The rating on the Tianji Order is terrifyingly at the level of the great emperor.
This means that if this person does not fall, he will definitely become a great emperor in the future, proud to travel the universe, and control the stars!
The birth of a great emperor can establish at least 100,000 years of peak for an immortal sect in the universe, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it directly flies to the top.
In the history of the Fuyao Immortal Sect, there has been a great emperor, who is the founding Fuyao Female Emperor, but unfortunately, it has been a hundred of thousands of years ago.
Nowadays, the Fuyao Immortal Sect is declining day by day. There are few great emperors, and even sages are rare. There are not many ancestors, and they all live on the rich foundation left by the past.
And now, they have the opportunity to fly to the top again, how can they not be excited.
The old man breathed out, suppressing the tension in his heart, stepped back, bowed to the back, and said respectfully:
"Please come forward, ancestor!"
The brilliant light suddenly condensed, dissipated very quickly, revealing a mysterious figure inside.
The residents below were shocked.
Ancestor?!
Although they don't know how great the ancestor is, just by the old man's respectful attitude towards the figure in the light, they know that this is a great existence.
To describe it with their scarce knowledge, it's ten thousand, no, a hundred thousand times greater than an emperor!
The mysterious figure did not speak, stretched out his hand, and a colorful jade cone quickly flew out, hovering above Weixi Town, radiating brilliant light.
The old man, who was bending on one side, looked at the colorful jade cone in the sky with a solemn and respectful expression, and showed great respect.
This is one of the treasures of the Fuyao Immortal Sect, the Tianji Order!
The Tianji Order is one of the personal treasures of the Fuyao Female Emperor, with many uses such as detecting fate and seeking the great way. It is also the Tianji Order that detected the great fortune person here.
After waiting for the Tianji Order to fully rise into the sky, the mysterious figure calmly tapped his finger.
The Tianji Order shone with brilliant light and suddenly fell, like a star falling.
Straight into... in front of Xu Zhen!
The respectfully waiting old man's expression was pleasantly surprised, pointing to Xu Zhen and saying.
"The great fortune person has been found, it's this girl!"
The mysterious figure spoke, emitting a clear and crisp female voice, and asked Xu Zhen, "Are you willing to join our Fuyao Immortal Sect and achieve the supreme way?"
Xu Zhen's expression was slightly stunned, and she didn't quite understand the situation. She pointed to herself and still couldn't believe it.
"Me?"
She herself is the great fortune person and will achieve the supreme way?
What a joke, she has only learned a little boxing from Brother Xia.
The mysterious figure nodded and replied in a clear and emotionless tone.
"The Tianji Order has nine changes according to different fortunes, the first three are for people, the middle three are for saints, and the top three are for emperors, represented by white, gold, and color."
"Your fortune is in the upper middle, which is dark color, so you are indeed a great fortune person."
Xu Zhen heard this and blinked her watery big eyes, still somewhat unbelievable. In her view, the omnipotent Brother Xia should be the great fortune person.
So Xu Zhen asked doubtfully, "Is there something wrong?"
The mysterious figure shook her head and was very patient with Xu Zhen, continuing to reply, "The Tianji Order cannot make mistakes, you are the great fortune person, and you should achieve the supreme way. Don't refuse, and you can't refuse."
"If you are just an ordinary fortune, our Fuyao Immortal Sect can definitely decide whether to join or not based on your own thoughts, but your fortune is too great. If you don't join our Fuyao Immortal Sect, you will definitely be coveted by other external evil cultivators, and your life will be in danger."
Chen Xia frowned and asked, "But how do we know you won't covet Xiao Xu's fortune? Evil cultivators will harm Xiao Xu, won't you?"
The mysterious figure shook her head, "Our Fuyao Immortal Sect is the protector of this world, connected with the fortune of this world, and we will never harm the great fortune person of this world."
"I can make a life avenue oath, and I will never harm the great fortune person at all."
After saying this, the mysterious figure reached out and tapped her chest, then pointed to Xu Zhen. The sky suddenly darkened, and Xu Zhen saw a slender light in front of her, which seemed to be as boundless as the starry sky.
After a while, the sky brightened again.
The mysterious woman breathed out a breath and said, "I have made the great oath, and this little girl will have a perception, and now you have no right to refuse. I only treat the great fortune person with such respect."
Xu Zhen thought for a while, and there was an inexplicable connection in her mind, as if the heavenly way told her that the mysterious woman was not lying.
And as the mysterious woman said, they have no choice now.
Xu Zhen asked again, "What is cultivation like?"
The mysterious woman explained, "The Fuyao Immortal Sect mainly cultivates immortal laws and needs to be immersed and enlightened. You are a great fortune person and have a great possibility of achieving the supreme way, but it also requires a long time to precipitate, at least ten thousand years, or more."
"Ah?!" Xu Zhen opened her mouth, looking very surprised, glanced at Chen Xia, and hesitated to ask.
"Can Brother Xia cultivate together?"
Xu Zhen had heard from the town mayor that Chen Xia might be resented by the immortal sect, hoping to take Chen Xia away to avoid the revenge of the immortal sect.
In addition... she also couldn't bear to be separated from Chen Xia.
The mysterious woman pondered for a moment and replied, "You can let the Tianji Order detect it. As long as there is a bit of talent, I can agree, otherwise, I need to consult again."
It is absolutely profitable to have a great fortune person join the sect, even if they bring an ungifted person along.
However, if Chen Xia really has no fortune or talent at all, the mysterious woman does not have the power to decide, and the silent sage must make a decision.
But the mysterious woman thinks that even if the sage makes a decision, it should be agreed.
After all, a great fortune person with a limit of the great emperor level, even if they bring a hundred useless people into the sect, it is a great benefit.
The Tianji Order hovered in front of Chen Xia and began to detect the fortune.
Three breaths.
Ten breaths.
Thirty breaths.
The Tianji Order did not shine for a long time.
This made the mysterious woman frown. According to reason, even if it is the talent of a saint in the middle three colors, it only takes ten breaths to detect. Why can't this person be detected for a long time.
The old man on one side was also puzzled and had never seen such a scene.
The Tianji Order rotated for a while and suddenly stopped, pointing to Chen Xia, shining from the tip to the handle!
The lower three colors of ordinary people are white, the middle three colors of saints are gold, and the upper three colors of great emperors are colorful.
Chen Xia actually has all nine colors!
The calm expression of the mysterious woman could no longer be maintained, and the clear voice was filled with surprise, and she said in amazement.
"A person without fortune?!"
Throughout history, all cultivators have fortune with them. The better the talent and future, the greater the fortune, and the higher the great way that can be achieved.
Among them, there are anomalies, that is, people without fortune.
The known people without fortune have two possibilities.
The first is the reincarnation of great powers from the outside world. The involvement here is huge, and its complexity even exceeds the great emperor level figures.
And it must be the great powers in a world that has been shattered and extinguished in the universe outside.
Such great powers are reincarnated in other interfaces, and their hometowns are shattered, so they are people without fortune.
The Fuyao Immortal Sect has encountered several such great powers whose hometowns have been shattered in the past few hundred thousand years.
However, such great powers should not be deeply interacted with, and even contact should not be made, because the cause and effect on them is too great, which will affect the cultivators who get along with them.
There was a sect that recruited a person without fortune, and as a result, it was punished by the heavenly way of the interface. The sage died to seek forgiveness from heaven, but it still could not escape the end of the sect.
The first possibility of a person without fortune is a taboo in the universe, and generally, they do not contact or even hunt and kill.
The second possibility of a person without fortune is much better, just a simple unclear talent and fortune, also known as a rootless person.
However, although it is much better compared to the first one, in fact, rootless people are also not popular with cultivators.
Because rootless people have a characteristic, which is to unconsciously affect the changes in the fortune of other cultivators.
Xu Zhen, as a great fortune person, was discovered by the Fuyao Immortal Sect so late, possibly because Chen Xia affected her fortune.
The mysterious woman frowned and shook her head, saying, "A person without fortune, our Fuyao Immortal Sect has a ancestral precept that cannot be accepted, I'm afraid we can't take him along."
Xu Zhen's face was anxious, and her tone was obviously urgent, "But Brother Xia is really powerful, he killed more than a dozen bandits last time..."
"You think it's powerful, it's just that your horizons haven't opened yet. When you walk on the path of immortals and your horizons are high, you will naturally find the insignificance between mortals..."
The mysterious woman interrupted Xu Zhen's words, paused for a while, and said again.
"However, I can compensate this person, magical weapons, elixirs, and immortal techniques. Our Fuyao Immortal Sect can reward this person."
"As long as you join!"
Xu Zhen gritted her teeth and was very hesitant. Naturally, she wanted to become an immortal, but she was reluctant to part with Chen Xia, and she was really in a dilemma at the moment.
"You don't have to hesitate so much. After you join the Fuyao Immortal Sect, I will give him a cultivation method, and he can still cultivate. As long as he has enough talent, you will meet again in the future."
Of course, this premise must be that he has enough talent.
Otherwise, with Xu Zhen's great emperor appearance, as long as he doesn't die on the road to the emperor, he will definitely have a lifespan of at least 100,000 years.
With such a lifespan, even if Chen Xia practices desperately, he may not be able to touch the tail of Xu Zhen.
Not to mention that Chen Xia may not have the talent and can't cultivate to a high level.
The words of the mysterious woman are mostly to comfort Xu Zhen, after all, a great fortune person and a person without fortune will not go to the same way in the end.
This is like the stars in the sky and the stones on the ground, which are clearly divided from birth.
"You are a great fortune person, and he is a person without fortune. Before achieving the great way, if you get along for too long, he will greatly affect your fortune. When you confirm the great way, you can avoid the impact."
"So you are destined to be separated before, and if you still have a relationship later, there will be tens of thousands of years to get along."
The mysterious woman persuasion again, although the words are so said, but the heart thinks completely differently.
When Xu Zhen walks on the road to the emperor, his horizons will gradually become higher, and he will no longer worship a mortal.
If you really want to find a partner, it is best to find a great emperor at the same level. In addition, there is no existence that can match the great emperor.
"Brother Xia, I... I want to go." Xu Zhen grabbed her skirt with one hand and said to Chen Xia.
She wants to cultivate, not for the great way, but to protect Chen Xia.
She hopes that she can stand up to protect Chen Xia when Chen Xia is retaliated by the immortal sect.
She also hopes to step onto the road of cultivation with Chen Xia, and the two can live for a long time and be together.
In fact, Xu Zhen has already felt that something is wrong, because for ten years, Chen Xia's appearance has not changed at all, and it is still the same as before.
And she is already a 23-year-old girl. If it continues, what should she do when she becomes an old woman in her fifties or sixties, and Brother Xia is still so young?
Xu Zhen doesn't want to see this scene, and stepping onto the road of cultivation at this moment gives her an opportunity.
She wants to go.
Chen Xia looked at Xu Zhen, grinned, and nodded, "If you want to go, just go. Everyone has their own way, and it's good to go out as you want."
"Okay." Xu Zhen nodded her head, but she quickly lowered it, wiped her face with her sleeves, and began to sob quietly.
"What's wrong, are you crying with joy?" Chen Xia asked in confusion.
Xu Zhen shook her head, sniffed, raised her head, looked at Chen Xia with tearful eyes, and replied, "It's just... I can't bear to leave you."
"We will meet again." Chen Xia comforted with a smile.
When the mysterious woman saw that Xu Zhen agreed, she was also delighted and said again.
"Then I will give you three days to part, and we will guide you in three days."
The mysterious woman finished this sentence, without waiting for Xu Zhen to reply, she directly disappeared with the old man.
The rest is the three days of farewell time for Xu Zhen and Chen Xia.
In fact, there is nothing to say, which is similar to the usual days.
Until the last day of parting, Xu Zhen drank a pot of wine, and Xu Zhen, who was not good at drinking, got drunk and knocked on Chen Xia's door.
"Brother Xia, Brother Xia."
Chen Xia opened the door, saw that Xu Zhen had been drinking, frowned slightly, helped her into the room, waved his hand in front of her, and shouted.
"Xiao Xu, Xiao Xu, are you still conscious, Xiao Xu?"
Xu Zhen lay half on the bed, the whole person swaying, her watery eyes wide open, seemingly trying to see clearly in front of her, and in a daze, she wondered.
"Brother Xia, why do you have two heads?!"
"Xiao Xu, you have drunk too much." Chen Xia frowned and said.
"No." Xu Zhen shook her head, pouted her mouth, and resisted, arguing, "I didn't drink too much, I just feel a bit dizzy."
"Okay, okay." Chen Xia responded helplessly.
Xu Zhen rolled her eyes, lay back, swung her feet, and cooed to Chen Xia.
"Brother Xia, help me take off my shoes."
Chen Xia frowned and asked first, "Xiao Xu, do you have foot odor?"
"No, no, I don't." Xu Zhen pouted her mouth and repeated several times.
Chen Xia casually took off Xu Zhen's shoes, revealing her tender white feet inside.
Xu Zhen shook her feet and said with some doubt, "Strange, why do I have three feet, no, it seems to have become four."
"Is there a possibility that you have drunk too much?" Chen Xia stood by, responding helplessly.
Xu Zhen blinked her watery big eyes, curiously touched her pretty face, "Really, my face is so hot, am I really drunk?"
Chen Xia didn't reply and planned to pour a bowl of vinegar for Xu Zhen to sober up.
Xu Zhen suddenly sat up, grabbed Chen Xia's sleeve, held back his steps, and with a small face, said in a very aggrieved tone.
"Don't go, Brother Xia, don't leave me, don't abandon me."
"Okay, okay."could only respond helplessly.
"Sit down." Xu Zhen's watery eyes glanced at the bed, indicating that Chen Xia should sit here.
Chen Xia could only sit down.
Suddenly, there was a hot body behind him, slender arms around his shoulders, and fingers like onions entwined in front of him.
Xu Zhen's mouth was next to Chen Xia's ear, breathing like orchids, and asked softly.
"Brother Xia, do you believe that drunk words are true words?"
Chen Xia glanced back at Xu Zhen, rubbed his nose tip, was a little distressed, and said again.
"Xiao Xu, you are drunk."
He doesn't want to make a choice between being an animal and not being an animal.
"No." Xu Zhen's whole soft body was pressed against Chen Xia's back, stubbornly said.
"I'm not drunk, what I'm saying is the truth."
"Brother Xia, I... I..."
When Xu Zhen said this, her tone suddenly became urgent, her mouth was breathing continuously, and her pretty face was covered with a bit of red.
It's not the intention of drinking, it's the intention.
"I like you."
Xu Zhen said this sentence in a muffled voice, her whole head buried behind Chen Xia, embarrassed to come out, her pretty face was already full of shyness, and continued.
"I don't know when it started, maybe it was spring, maybe it was autumn, I don't know if it's love over time or love at first sight, I don't know anything, I don't understand, but one day..."
"Like spring is to bloom, autumn is to bear fruit, it's unreasonable, I... I..."
Xu Zhen's pretty face was so red that it almost dripped water, no longer muffled, but firmly shouted loudly.
"I like you, Brother Xia, I really like it!"
Chen Xia was silent for a while before replying, "Xiao Xu, you are really not drunk."
Because drunk people can't say such words.
Xu Zhen hugged Chen Xia tightly, her head pressed against his back, her eyes lowered, and whispered.
"Maybe without this opportunity to cultivate immortals, I would never be able to say such words. I always felt that Brother Xia and I are not from the same world, I am very inferior, afraid that I am not worthy of Brother Xia, so I also want to practice martial arts, and I want to become more powerful."
"But it seems that I really don't have the talent in this aspect. I am already 23 years old, and Brother Xia shows no signs of aging. I always think, what should I do if I become an old woman and Brother Xia is still so young?"
"I am very sad every time I think about it."
Xu Zhen wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and grinned again, continuing.
"But this cultivation opportunity has given me a chance, and I want to be with Brother Xia for a longer time in the future."
"We have an agreement."
"Hmm."
Chen Xia nodded.
Not every story will end quickly, and both he and Xu Zhen have a lot of roads to go.
On the third day.
Xu Zhen was guided by the brilliant light and flew directly to the sky without saying goodbye to Chen Xia.
The old man in white python robe from the Fuyao Immortal Sect found Chen Xia and wanted to give him the promised reward.
"Magical weapons, elixirs, and techniques, you can choose one, and I can give you the best, which is enough for you as a mortal to enjoy for a lifetime."
The old man's words were a bit contemptuous, with a meaning that he couldn't see Chen Xia.
But he is not targeting Chen Xia, but all mortals.
Those who are not cultivators in the sky are two different people in heaven and earth.
Immortals regard mortals as ants, which is a common thing, and even mortals themselves admit that they are ants, and they kneel when they see immortals.
Because Chen Xia has a deep relationship with Xu Zhen, the old man has actually restrained a lot and does not dare to show a superior attitude.
Chen Xia didn't care so much, after all, he really couldn't beat this old man, and he would wait for a thousand or eight hundred years to develop.
When the time comes, if this old man dares to show off in front of him again, he will let this old man burst out his pension!
The old man doesn't know Chen Xia's thoughts at the moment, and urges impatiently, "Hurry up and choose."
Chen Xia replied, "Is there a cultivation method that sacrifices life to cultivate?"
The old man frowned, "Your choice is strange. You actually want a cultivation method that sacrifices life. You know, even great powers with thousands of years of cultivation dare not cultivate casually, and you as a mortal are bold."
"I have been brave since I was a child, and I don't want to practice if it doesn't damage the body."
"Strange." The old man frowned and evaluated, and he didn't want to entangle with Chen Xia anymore, and said directly.
"This kind of method is relatively rare. I have collected one here, called 'Tortoise Breathing Technique'. Although the name is tortoise breathing, it is a special technique that burns life to cultivate."
"But this 'Tortoise Breathing Technique' is only a golden pill method, and it can only be cultivated to the golden pill. I haven't practiced the specific ability, and I don't know."
"But the book describes a little bit. As long as you reach the golden pill, you can start tortoise breathing, and your physical abilities will increase every year."
"I don't know who thought of it. If you want it, I can give you two more life pills. The first one can increase your life by a hundred years, and the second one's effect is halved, only adding fifty years of life."
Chen Xia shook his head, "I want the 'Tortoise Breathing Technique', but I don't want the life pills. Change it to something else, preferably something that can directly increase strength."
The old man thought for a while and gave Chen Xia the "Tortoise Breathing Technique" and two foundation pills.
The things are not very good, but they are enough to deal with Chen Xia as a mortal.
The old man thought so and said again.
"After that, you should stay in the lower realm honestly and live a stable life. Don't have any unrealistic ideas. From now on, you and the saintess are worlds apart."
Since Xu Zhen flew up, she has become the Fuyao Saintess of the Fuyao Immortal Sect.
Chen Xia didn't care, yawned, and was too lazy to argue with the old man. Instead, he looked at the "Tortoise Breathing Technique" in his hand.
The old man didn't stay any longer and disappeared on the spot.
Chen Xia opened the "Tortoise Breathing Technique", and the first chapter made him frown.
Three hundred years of life for the golden pill, three thousand years of life for the great power, thirty thousand years of life for the quasi-sage...
Three hundred thousand years to cultivate invincible!
Didn't the old man say it was a golden pill method? Why is it seeking quasi-sage and invincible now?
Chen Xia was puzzled, and after reading it, he understood.
You can regard this book as bragging.
Because the golden pill only has a life of five hundred years, and it's about the same for normal people to cultivate for three hundred years to reach the golden pill. This method actually sacrifices three hundred years to become a golden pill.
Then there are only two hundred years left, and there's no need to cultivate at all, just fast forward to cultivating oneself to death.
It is estimated that this is also the reason why cultivators disdain to practice this method.
But the wrong method meets the wrong person, and it's right now.
Chen Xia really likes this method. According to the above, although it will sacrifice life, it will greatly improve the cultivation speed.
Before the golden pill, it is about three times the speed, which means it can become a golden pill in a hundred years.
Not to mention that Chen Xia can also add points, and now it's really going to cultivate invincible in three hundred thousand years.
He stretched and looked at the distant lake, the sunset just rose, very hot, and it is estimated that it will not fall for a long time.
Chen Xia grinned.
He wants to remember this summer.
Time is always unconscious, never giving people a reaction time.
In a blink of an eye, it was ten years later.
Chen Xia was promoted from the leader of the patrol to the head of Weixi Town, and the original head of the town had retired.
His appearance has not changed at all, still in his twenties.
Many people say that Chen Xia has obtained a method from the immortals, which has increased his life, causing many people to envy.
Even some businessmen in the city came to buy Chen Xia's method.
However, this "Tortoise Breathing Technique" is obviously not for ordinary people to practice, so Chen Xia did not agree.
Gradually, the rumor that Weixi Town has an immortal has also been known to the surrounding hundred miles.
Chen Xia didn't care about these, and he has reached the seventh layer of Qi Refining
by practicing the "Tortoise Breathing Technique", and it is estimated that it will take another twenty years to build the foundation.
He is not in a hurry, after all, cultivation is just an addition, and the real big head is adding points.
In the past ten years, he has used the average distribution method to add points, adding strength and fortune at the same time.
His current strength is 20 points, and his fortune is 6 points.
The improvement of strength is obvious. Now, Chen Xia can penetrate the mountain fifty meters with just a flower or a leaf, and the leaf is not destroyed.
This means that his strength has reached the terrifying level of controlling it freely and destroying mountains and rivers.
However, Chen Xia has not felt much change in his fortune, except that the money he picks up every day has increased, and there are no other changes.
He patted his sleeves, wanting to get up and go out for a walk, and suddenly a prompt popped up in his mind.
[Fortune effect, "Tortoise Breathing Technique" is comprehended as "Great Tortoise Breathing Technique"]
He was suddenly stunned.
Can it be?!
