Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 788: Daozi can die, but the True Lord cannot be lost
In the Iwakawa Sea, waves swept between the sea and the sky, the tides came and went, and from time to time there were whispers of people in the field.

Bai Jin and the other three kept their spiritual inspiration strictly in mind, and the ancient magic formation was flowing brilliantly, continuously emitting a mysterious wave that wrapped up the body of Master Pingyang, so that he would have no worries in his retreat.

"Fellow Daoist Pingyang has already been there for two days. Could it be that he has gone too deep?"

The Dragon Mother pondered for a long time, and when she saw the atmosphere gradually becoming tense, she suddenly asked.

Such an act of escaping into the void cannot be taken lightly, and the danger will increase exponentially as the stay time increases.

Although she was not very familiar with Pingyang, as a fellow traveler, she did not want him to get lost in it so rashly.

Xuyun's eyes flickered, and he shook his head with emotion, saying, "Chen Mu is a rare talent in Beiyuan. It's normal for Fellow Daoist Pingyang to have expectations in his heart. However, I believe that in the face of the overall situation, Fellow Daoist Pingyang will not take risks lightly..."

The Dragon Mother nodded slowly, and when she was about to reply, she saw the stars shining in the array, and a familiar wave came from far away, as if falling from the sky at a high speed.

"came back?"

She was slightly stunned, and didn't expect that what she said would happen.

The four of them reacted quickly and each used their sea-like magic power to stabilize the formation, allowing the starlight to fall into Pingyang's body without error.

The people below also noticed the movement at this time, and they all fell silent and focused, waiting eagerly.

Even the Jiang clan ancestor put down the teacup in his hand and took two steps closer with an expressionless face...

Not long after, Pingyang's eyelids moved slightly, then slowly opened and closed, and he regained his composure.

Xuyun immediately asked, "How is it?"

"Why is it that only fellow Taoist has returned? Where is kid Chen?" Bai Jin followed up with a question.

The Dragon Mother and Shenxiu also looked over with solemn expressions.

"Pindao..."

Pingyang looked into each other's eyes, sighed deeply, shook his head and replied: "I haven't been able to find Chen Mu..."

Xuyun and the other three were all startled. Bai Jin asked anxiously, "Didn't they find it, or?"

"Is there any difference between these two results?"

Although Xuyun didn't want to think so, the Void Heaven was like this. Being lost in it was no different from losing one's Tao and dying.

"Amitabha……"

Shenxiu lowered his eyes, put his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name.

"Young friend Chen is incredibly talented, but he still can't overcome the great calamity in life."

The Dragon Mother also nodded: "Given time, Chen Mu will be able to rank at the top, it's a pity... what a pity."

Since the records of this world began, they knew that too many brilliant immortals had died halfway through their lives. They didn't feel too much about it, but when it really happened before their eyes, they couldn't help but feel a lot of waves in their hearts.

"how come……"

"How can it be……"

In the crowd, a frail figure in a simple white dress lost her mind, lost her balance, and fell directly onto the boat.

"master!"

Seeing this, Lian Xin beside her hurriedly reached out to support her, and at the same time called out to the front: "Uncle Niu, the fluctuations of Master's magic power are astonishing, come and take a look!"

Niu Dali, who had arrived at an unknown time, was awakened in an instant. He tried his best to suppress the sadness in his heart, turned around and took a few quick steps. After taking a look, he immediately pointed out his spiritual light to help the person in front of him stabilize his cultivation.

"Senior Sister Han, you have just broken through and are not stable yet. You must not lose your mind, otherwise..."

He spoke in a dull voice, but when he saw Han Jing's red eyes, he couldn't help but comfort her, "Senior Sister Han, it's not like Brother Chen hasn't experienced life-or-death tribulations before, but in the end, he always overcame them one by one. This time will definitely be no exception."

"Pingyang Zhenjun also said that he was unable to find Brother Chen. Perhaps Brother Chen is just trapped somewhere right now. He only needs to wait for a while and then he will be able to return safely..."

He consoled Han Jing, and at the same time, consoled himself. At the end, his eyes were faintly red, and he said firmly: "In short, I don't believe that Brother Chen will die like this!"

"well said!"

Hua Meimei suddenly shouted, "I don't believe it either!"

He boldly jumped in front of everyone and explained each incident one by one, "Brother Chen and I have known each other for many years. We have entered the Demon Court, killed the old demon, and even fought together to seize the world's luck and incense. Each of these actions was extremely dangerous. How can a mere Penglai Immortal Palace bear the consequences of Brother Chen's actions?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd in the audience immediately became excited.

Huang Linzun shouted loudly, "That's right. When I first started practicing Taoism, I heard that Senior Chen was besieged by a hundred people during his trip to the Western Desert. Among them, there were four or five people with cultivation levels higher than his, and there were also many cultivators of the same level!"

"Senior was able to break such a dangerous situation with his sword, so what is the current predicament?!"

Meng Yuewei also spoke up: "And back in the Nixia Sea, Master, in order to save his disciple, infiltrated the Yuanying cultivator's dojo at the Jindan realm. He was trapped in a desperate situation, but didn't he manage to escape in the end?"

"And with several countries in turmoil..."

More and more people talked about what they considered to be desperate situations, and Chen Mu was always able to break out of them, amazed the world time and time again.

And perhaps it was precisely because of this that Chen Mu was able to gain their admiration and support, and as soon as the news of Chen Mu's accident spread, so many people came to witness it... Tao Xianxu and other Zhongzhou Taoists remained silent, and only after this scene happened did they feel a little surprised in their hearts.

Chen Mu is not only one step ahead of them in the path of cultivation, but also stronger than them in terms of human nature.

If they were in such a dangerous situation, regardless of their status and position, how many people would come to help them?
I'm afraid it's less than one-fifth of what's here...

"Sister, Chen Mu..."

Ao Chun always showed his emotions on his face, and this time was no exception. There was a hint of crying in his tone, which really shocked Ao Yun and others.

In fact, she herself didn't understand. Nothing had happened between her and Chen Mu, but she felt so painful that she couldn't express it in words.

Plus, with no one around her to comfort her, she could only confide in Ao Yi, the elder sister with whom she had something in common...

Compared to her outspokenness, Ao Yi seemed much more restrained.

A cold face without any makeup, except for the slightly pale lips, there is only a hint of deep pain hidden deep in the eyes, which cannot be detected by people without extremely sharp eyesight.

She did not respond to Ao Chun, but her eyes moved slightly and fell on the weak figure.

She knew that Chen Mu had a confidante, but she had never met her.

Compared to her seventh sister Ao Chun, this person truly shared her suffering...

As the saying goes, there are many different kinds of people in the world.

Just a few words, just right for this moment.

But when talking about all kinds of situations, there is naturally no lack of the only person who is out of place in the scene.

The Jiang clan ancestor sighed with pretended regret and cried out sadly: "God is jealous of talented people, it really is God's jealousy of talented people..."

Although he said that, anyone with a discerning eye could see the ecstasy in his heart, not to mention the smile on his face that he couldn't suppress.

He mumbled a lot, but when he saw that no one was paying any attention to him, he couldn't help but think, his eyes turned, and he asked Master Pingyang, "Fellow Daoist Pingyang, since you haven't been able to detect Chen Mu's aura, have you found any traces of others?"

Pingyang did not hide anything and said frankly: "I was just about to tell you about this."

His expression was serious. "After entering Penglai Immortal Palace, I conducted a rough investigation. Finding nothing, I went directly to the summit of the Immortal Palace that Junior-Martial-nephew Li and the others mentioned."

"But what puzzles me is that there are indeed residual fluctuations of Chen Mu's Taoism on the top of the Immortal Palace, but there is no trace of his true body's energy. Instead, there are traces of Taoist Jiu Mo. According to my deduction, he must have been escaped to the void by the Immortal Palace..."

"what?"

"No Qi to follow?"

Xuyun and the others were stunned again, thinking to themselves, "There's no Qi... but that's very different from having Qi but not being able to find it."

There are many possibilities for the former. Perhaps he had already left the top of the Immortal Palace before it was closed and was not discovered by Li Jianyi and others. Or he might have been trapped in a secret place, and so on.

Of course, it is not ruled out that Taoist Jiumo has some powerful means to destroy all of Chen Mu's energy in one fell swoop.

But according to what they thought, Chen Mu was such a person that even if the Taoist Jiu Mo hid himself deeper, it would be impossible for him to have such an effect.

So from the very beginning, they didn't think about it at all.

"In that case, whether Chen Mu is alive or dead is still a mystery, so I'm not in a rush to make a judgment..."

Xuyun and the others' eyes suddenly brightened, but the Jiang clan patriarch frowned, "Fellow Daoist Pingyang, why don't you go find that Taoist Jiumo? After bringing him back, you can ask him where Chen Mu is going."

This time, Pingyang didn't respond. Xuyun thought for a moment, then shook his head and sighed, "Fellow Daoist Pingyang is right. We can't stay in Xuwutian for long. If we rashly go looking for that Taoist Jiumo, we will be in danger."

The Dragon Mother nodded slightly: "The Daoist son may perish, but the True Lord cannot be lost..."

"The True Lord must not be lost..."

Everyone muttered silently, and the place fell into silence.

The Jiang patriarch hesitated to speak, knowing that if he pressed the issue further, it would surely arouse Xuyun and the others' suspicions. So, he kept silent, thinking to himself, "Now that we've confirmed that the man was taken to the void, that should be enough to repay the favor..."

He made up his mind, then thought of Chen Mu again, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "It's better not to die completely!"

At this moment, Hua Meimei finally reacted, her eyes widening as she struggled to speak out, "Even if the True Lord cannot be lost, we must at least find out the truth. Otherwise, wouldn't it be us who chose to give up on Brother Chen?"

The crowd immediately became noisy. Although most of them were afraid of the True Lord's majesty and did not dare to offend him, they all thought so in their hearts.

The Pingyang people sighed inwardly but didn't respond. Bai Jin whispered back, "What do you know? This is about the orthodoxy of this world. How can you act on impulse?"

Hua Meimei was still unwilling to give up. She looked around and shouted, "If that's the case, I'll go find Brother Chen!"

As soon as these words came out, the Jiang clan ancestor sneered, "You are overestimating your own abilities. A mere Nascent Soul junior dares to dream of escaping into the void of the universe?"

"I'm afraid that just by making contact, your Nascent Soul will be annihilated in an instant..."
