Chapter 136 One Year

When Tiedan woke up, he saw the blue sky, the weather was sunny and there were no clouds in sight.

For a moment he couldn't even tell which world he was in. It was not until the carriage beneath him shook and he felt severe pain all over his body that he gradually regained consciousness.

Then he turned his head and saw Zhen Baiyu with a head full of white hair lying beside him.

"..."

Then Zhen Baiyu suddenly opened his eyes.
"What are you looking at! You're screwing me, you old bastard!"

Tiedan: “…”

Zhen Baiyu cursed with his eyes open.
"You are such a damned old thing, you have really screwed us over! In order to save you, she used up all her elixir power and her life span has come to an end!
Now I will use the Yuanshen method to lock her soul for a year! If you can't get the peaches, Lingzhi elixir, Tianshan snow lotus and other things that can change fate within a year, I will give your sister Baiyu a chance to revive her soul and prolong her life!

During that year, her soul will be torn apart and she will turn into a voiceless and silent being, never to be reborn!
"By then you will owe her for the rest of your life! You will never be able to repay her in your entire life! Humph!"

Then she closed her eyes, fell asleep, and snored loudly.

Tiedan: “…”

Then Tiedan turned his eyes and looked at another man sitting in the car, with his chest open, a melancholy expression, and a head full of shaggy hair.

Who are you...

The man raised his orchid finger, pushed aside the long hair in front of his forehead, looked Tiedan up and down carefully for a while, grinned and said,

"Shall I teach you how to play the flute?"

Neuropathy……

"Alas... it's so hard to find a soulmate..."

So the man looked up at the sky in melancholy again and ignored him.

Madd, what's going on...

Fortunately, Kun jumped out, gave Tiedan a look, and briefly explained the situation.

Oh I got it……

Anyway, I won.

Zhen Baiyu sacrificed his lifespan and cultivation, borrowed the power of the magic weapon to kill Taotie in seconds, and survived the disaster.

However, this battle was fought to the end.

Tiedan's sword was broken and his body was shattered, so he had to slowly recuperate and recover.

Liu Changqing was killed, Liu Chaoyan lost all his skills, and was seriously injured and had not yet recovered, so he was probably going to die.

The Nie brothers were all injured and covered in wounds, and they struggled to rescue everyone back to Yanmen Pass.

However, even though so many demons were killed and the battle was won, the general situation remained unchanged.

Soon, new demons appeared outside Yanmen Pass.

After receiving the report, the garrison commander of Yanmen realized the situation and was afraid that he could not hold on any longer, so he urgently arranged to close the city and began to prepare for transfer.

The garrison commander also thanked these heroes for their help, for killing many monsters and buying time. Although the other party refused to give the reward for the monster-killing order and asked Sanyuan to send it, and they had no extra money, they at least arranged troops to escort the wounded to the interior of the country and temporarily stay in the Nie family's village.

Never mind, as long as I survive.

Tiedan looked at Zhen Baiyu, held her hand to feel her pulse, and observed her breathing.

This is not natural aging, but the so-called five signs of decay in heavenly beings.

The music stopped, the light on the body suddenly disappeared, the bathing water adhered to the body, and the eyes blinked several times.

This is a sign of minor decline, with a dim primordial spirit and a disintegrating soul.

This is the price of forcibly using the divine treasure.

If she hadn't had the Holy Maiden's soul and destiny to suppress her, she would have been turned into ashes on the spot by the Yuanshen magic to suppress her soul and spirit.

One year?

Anyway, let’s find some rare treasures that can help Bai Yu prolong his life first.

This was not the most difficult part. After all, in the world of immortal cultivation, there were many elixirs that could prolong life, restore youth, and make people immortal. Even if they were rare, they were always traded within the Xuanmen. She might even meet a bunch of mythical beasts offering treasures when she went out for a walk.

What we really need to worry about are the demons that are pouring over the Yinshan Mountains and heading towards the Central Plains like a tide.

After all, even if you extend your life by a thousand years, you will still die if you are killed by demons.

If it was just a normal wave of monsters, it would be fine. Tiedan and his group of Jindan mages and foundation-building warriors could kill eight big monsters. It can be seen that under normal circumstances, the human race still has the strength to fight.

But what if the Three Palaces of the Demon Palace not only do not stand up and assume the responsibility of ruling the world and protecting the people, but also secretly join forces with the demon clan for their own selfish interests, provide demons with magical pills to enhance their strength, and bring them in as external aid, which in turn harms their own people?

Then this world is really difficult...

Forget it, just do your best to do the things in front of you, and for the rest, do your best. So after a short week of recuperation in Niejiabao, while others were still paralyzed in bed, Tiedan was able to get out of bed and run around.

But Zhen Baiyu's life span is now counting down. He is mostly drowsy and rarely awake during the day. Sometimes he cannot even see Tiedan's face clearly. He relies entirely on the women of the Nie family to take care of him.

In this situation, Tiedan naturally couldn't just lie there any longer, so he borrowed a bow, horse, and sword from the Nie family, and prepared to go out alone to Yinshan to look for the snow lotus.

Before leaving, Zhen Baiyu was still in a coma, so Tiedan went to see Liu Chaoyan again and returned the flute to him.

"I am about to prepare to dissolve into the martial world, so I'd better ask you to take care of it for me."

Liu Chaoyan looked at the flute and sighed.

"If there is an opportunity in the future, please ask Brother Tie to take it to the foot of Hengshan Mountain and return it to the Liu family's ancestral home."

Tiedan nodded.

"Okay. I'll do it."

The long-haired man lay at the door, wanting to cry but unable to,

"No, I am a flute, you guys go ahead and play it. What's the point of offering it up in the mourning hall? Alas! Oh, ah..."

Unfortunately, Liu Chaoyan couldn't even see him, and could only sigh,

"The aura of the treasure is too strong. If you try to control it without enough life, your life span will be shortened. But what's even more lamentable is that we, the unworthy descendants, don't even have the qualifications to control the treasure.

Since our ancestor ascended to heaven, none of the Liu family has been able to inherit the family tradition. Now we have to thank your wife for sacrificing her life to save us. I feel really ashamed and embarrassed. "

Tiedan shook his head and said,
"We have all been through life and death together. There is no need to say more. I will definitely do what Brother Liu asks of me."

"Thank you... Is there anything else you want to tell me, Brother Tie?"

Liu Chaoyan noticed that Tiedan's face looked strange. After all, this guy usually had no expression on his face, didn't he?

Tiedan nodded with a gloomy face.

"I do have a personal question to ask you. Brother Liu is a true disciple of Hengshan. Have you heard of Guangxia Mountain?"

Liu Chaoyan was ashamed.
"That... I have never heard of it. Changqing and I have been traveling around the world to collect natural materials and treasures to form a fetus since we achieved elixir perfection. We have only recently arrived in Hebei and have not visited fellow Taoists there."

Tiedan saw that the other party thought he was a cultivator from the north and seemed to have never heard of Guangxia Mountain. He probably had been away from the mountain for some time and might not know about his master, but he still asked unwillingly.

"My master is one of the Eighteen Flying Stars of the Beichen Sword Sect, and his Taoist name is Tianku. He is an old friend of Huilan Zhenren of the Huangting Temple in Guishan. He once sent a junior sister to Guishan to practice. I wonder if Brother Liu has heard of him?"

Liu Chaoyan shook his head helplessly.
"The Eighteen Flying Stars are famous, and the Huangting Temple lineage is indeed a group of Taoists who practice in Hengshan. However, we are outer disciples of Shangqing Dao, and have not yet officially entered the sect, so we have no chance to meet the two masters."

Tiedan gritted his teeth, was silent for a while, and then asked,
“My master went to visit Guishan, but was murdered by a villain halfway through. The secret was concealed, and even the sect couldn’t figure it out.

But I don't know what kind of demons are near Hengshan Mountain, and who has the ability to harm him?"

Liu Chaoyan understood, frowned and thought carefully.
“The Sword Sect’s Feixing Zhenren all fought their way through sword fights on the Cloud Platform. They are also top experts in my Xuan Sect. Most of the Divine Transformation Lords are no match for them. How could they be harmed silently…”

Liu Chaoyan thought about it carefully and calculated.

"If it was really the cultivators from the Southern Country who took action, apart from the head of the Xuan Sect and the supreme leader of the Demon Sect, there are indeed very few demon cultivators with such abilities. I think there are only three... um, two?"

Tiedan's eyes lit up, his murderous intent was revealed.
"Which three."

Liu Chaoyan's eyes became fierce when he saw him, so he naturally killed a thousand people by mistake and would not let any of them go, so he told all three.

The Xuanmen Divine Sect is one of the two most powerful factions today. They are full of experts, tit-for-tat, and have endless calculations. Naturally, the possibility of committing crimes is the greatest, but to put it bluntly, it is still a fight between factions. In the end, they will start fighting when they see an opportunity. There is not much to say.

But outside the three major sects, there are also other masters of the magic way. These demons, gods, and ghosts are pure demons that bring chaos to the world. They rely on their personal opportunities, talents, and struggles to grow bigger and stronger. They are not bound by any rules and do whatever they want.

Two of them are patriarch-level figures, one is the Wuyi Zen Master, and the other is the Master of Xuanpin Palace. In short, they are both external Taoist practitioners who have cultivated to a very high level by relying on the ancient Taoist tradition. They have many disciples under their command, and were also included in the Demon Palace's list of gods and immortals, and were named the head of the Southern Kingdom's national teacher. They are the leaders used to confront the Xuanmen forces.

The disciples of these two sects have been fighting for many years with the Xuanmen of the Hengshan Mountains for the ruling power and natural treasures of the paradise in the southern fairyland. They have been attacking and killing each other, and the feud has lasted for many years.

So if Tiedan said that his master Tianku was ambushed because he went to visit Hengshan, then there were two people in the local area who had the motive and ability to ambushed him, and they cannot escape the cause and effect.

As for the possible third person, he was a guy who called himself the Supreme Extreme Bliss. He was also quite remarkable, as he was actually a traitor of the Xuan Sect. Of course, he was not from the real Xuan Sect. He was a remnant of the Xiaoyao Sect who was killed by the Hidden Immortal Sect during the internal strife of the ancient Xuan Sect.

Of course, the Xiaoyao Sect was wiped out at that time, so naturally there would be no proper inheritance. It was probably this Supreme Jile, who had some talent and some fate with immortality, and thus obtained the Taoist secrets, magical skills and treasures hidden in the secret cave of the Xiaoyao Sect. He then inherited the cause and effect of the Xiaoyao Sect and wanted to take revenge on the Yinxian Sect.

Therefore, this person relied on his miraculous skill of quick cultivation by collecting and replenishing essences, and quickly rose to become a big boss of the evil way. He was regarded as the protagonist of the cult of the flower-collecting thief school of cultivation.

This man practiced evil skills, and naturally harmed many female cultivators in the South. He also violated the taboos of the Xuanmen sect. Various sects tried to capture him several times, but could never find any trace of him. He even killed many Yuanying realm disciples in return, so that those small sects sent their female relatives to Huangting Palace to avoid disaster.

According to the calculations of the Hengshan boss, this person must be secretly protected by the Heavenly Dao, and his fate has not yet run out, so he can be so rampant, but it is difficult to calculate how much ability he has. Liu Chaoyan is not sure whether he can defeat Feixing.

But they are not good people after all, and they will be wiped out sooner or later.

So Tiedan didn't delay any longer. He thanked Liu Chaoyan, said goodbye to the Nie brothers, and glanced at Zhen Baiyu who was still sleeping outside the door.

He rode away on his horse, left Niejiabao alone, and headed north to Yinshan Mountain in search of medicine.
