Chapter 116: Collecting Tao Yaoyao
Seeing Qing Heng bring in a bowl of something he couldn't tell if it was porridge, his expression was indescribable. Seeing that concerned yet somewhat embarrassed face, Qiuqiu first asked, "You were the one who drove away the people who attacked us last night. Are we still safe here?"
Qingheng, with a flushed face, said: "Well, we are still safe!" After all, he is a cultivator who has reached the great perfection of the Spirit Transformation Realm. He has lived for nearly ten thousand years and has much more experience than Qiuqiu.
"It's a spirit, currently residing within your Soul Nurturing Tree." She pointed to the hairpin on Qiuqiu's head. It was given to her by the old monk Wuwei as a reward for leading them out of the secret realm, and also as compensation for nearly having her body possessed. It was used to nourish Qiuqiu's spirit. It was a treasured object that had already recognized its master. When an alien spirit entered, Wen Yuan, using the power of the contract, gained some information.
Qiuqiu soon knew the whole story: the soul was that of a girl named Tao who was born in Taoyuan Town ten thousand years ago. At that time, the spiritual energy was still relatively rich, and Taoyuan Ancient Town was still a town for cultivating Taoism. Tao Yaoyao was the only daughter of the head of the Tao family, a large family in the town. When she was six years old, her spiritual roots were tested and it was found that she had a single wood spiritual root and a rare wood spirit body. At that time, she had excellent qualifications.
Whether the Tao family could advance further depended on Tao Yaoyao. Meanwhile, a family surnamed Yang migrated to Guzhen from the inland cultivation zone. Even a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if their family had fallen on hard times and moved to Taoyuan Town, they were still more powerful than the Tao family! The head of this family's second son, Yang Zhuohua, was less than ten years old and possessed relatively pure water and wood spiritual roots. The two families formed a marriage alliance: one wanted to leverage the Yang family's past connections to further their family's development. The Tao family's peach blossom wine was renowned and quite wealthy; the other wanted to establish a foothold and avoid offending those who might have offended them. The two families hit it off immediately, and the two youngsters grew up together as childhood sweethearts, developing a close bond.
After many years, they became Taoist partners. Tao Yaoyao, who had a wood spirit body, had one of the easiest physiques to get pregnant. However, ten years passed, and hundreds of years passed. Even after her cultivation level was raised from the Golden Core Stage to the Spirit Transformation Stage, she still couldn't give birth to a child for Yang Zhuohua!
At that time, fewer and fewer people ascended to heaven. Although cultivators did not pay so much attention to offspring, it could still comfort the Yang family that there would be opportunities to ascend to the spiritual world in the future. After all, both of them had good spiritual roots, and Tao Yaoyao was only one step away from ascension. The couple had a deep relationship, so they stopped practicing and protected and developed their two families. At the same time, they accompanied Yang Zhuohua to explore dangerous places and search for natural treasures to improve their cultivation. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. In just a hundred years, no one from the Mount Everest continent ascended to heaven!
Those who suppressed their cultivation to protect their sects or families used to be faced with a heavenly tribulation as soon as they released their cultivation, and they could ascend after overcoming the thunder tribulation. However, now no heavenly tribulation has come at all, and there is no feeling of being excluded from this world! After multiple verifications, the ascension channel has been closed!
At the beginning, it was Zhuohua who comforted Tao Yaoyao, saying that the predecessors would definitely find the ascension passage and reopen it. Hundreds of years later, the two went from being anxious to being numb!
As a wood spirit, Tao Yaoyao could have ascended to heaven long ago, but she delayed herself waiting for Zhuohua. However, after a thousand years of marriage, she did not leave him any children, and she felt guilty about it.
Zhuohua has dual spiritual roots of water and wood, and his attack power is slightly weaker, but he is a master of formations. His cultivation has been unable to break through the Spirit Transformation Stage for a thousand years, and has been stuck at the Nascent Soul Stage. Therefore, his lifespan of only more than 3,800 years is more than half that of Tao Yaoyao, and he has no way to ascend. He has completely given up the idea of improving his cultivation and devoted himself to studying formations.
Tao Yaoyao is a wood spirit with a natural affinity for spiritual plants. She is an expert at cultivating them and is also skilled at making peach blossom wine! She has taken the Tao family's business to a new level.
Tao Yaoyao, through her solitary training, found a longevity fruit tree. The longevity fruit on it had only been bearing fruit for a short time. A thousand-year-old longevity fruit could be used to make a longevity elixir that would extend one's lifespan by a hundred years, while a ten-thousand-year-old longevity fruit could be used to make an elixir that would extend one's lifespan by a thousand years! She tried everything she could to ripen the longevity fruit into a ten-thousand-year-old fruit, but she knew the hope was slim!
She didn't tell Zhuohua this news that gave people hope and despair!
It was a season of swaying peach blossoms, the warm sun blanketing the sky, a gentle breeze blowing. Tao Yaoyao, dressed in a green dress, came to keep her date with Zhuohua! Peach blossoms danced across the sky, accompanied by the soothing sounds of a zither. Zhuohua, dressed in a blue dress, was graceful and elegant, just like their names: Tao Zhi Yao Yao, Zhuo Zhuo Qi Hua, their love, after three thousand years, remains unchanged.
That day, they reminisced about their good old days, every time they escaped death, every time they gained new insights...
Until dark, Zhuo Hua brought her into the deep center of Taoyuan and asked her to stay there, intending to give her a surprise. She waited and waited, but what she got was not a surprise, but an evil formation, the Stealing Heaven Formation, and she was the center of the formation!
The Heaven-Seizing Formation seizes the fortune of heaven and earth, draws the vitality of the earth, and transforms the wood spirit body at the center of the formation, which has powerful vitality and has reached the great perfection of the transformation of the spirit, to pass the vitality to the person at the other center of the formation, Yang Zhuohua!
Tao Yaoyao was unconscious for the first few thousand years. Later, her consciousness slowly awakened, but she was unable to break free from the control of the formation. This Heaven-stealing Formation was a ninth-level formation. The reason why Tao Yaoyao's consciousness could not awaken at the beginning was that every hundred years a member of the Tao family would suppress the eye of the formation. Hundreds of years after the Tao family was deserted, Tao Yaoyao's consciousness slowly recovered, but her body was completely integrated with the formation, and she herself became a formation spirit.
She couldn't retaliate against the master of the formation, but by controlling the formation, she learned the Yang family's past: the Yang family patriarch's original wife was from a mysterious family of sorcerers. He relied on her family to rise to power, then forced his wife to give way to his true love! The sorcerer family is mysterious and forbidding, as they kill without being seen, yet their combat power is not strong. When she killed the original wife, she cursed her to end her reincarnation cycle, wiping out all descendants of the Yang family except those of her own bloodline!
The original wife gave birth to a daughter, who had already been lured into a dangerous place and would never come back alive!
The Yang family moved many times to avoid revenge from the sorcerer's family. Yang Zhuohua, the second son born of true love, was cursed to have no children or grandchildren. He also took advantage of Tao Yaoyao's guilt to gain many benefits.
What's even more disgusting is that in addition to filling Tao Yaoyao into the center of the formation and continuously killing members of the Tao family, Yang Zhuohua also raped his own niece's granddaughter, who was also the granddaughter of his half-sister, and left behind an offspring!
These members of the Yang family all came from this bloodline. The few people who were killed by the backlash of the formation that day were all powerful elders of the Yang family who had gained vitality at the nodes of the formation, including Yang Zhuohua.
Tao Yaoyao was able to break free from the formation because the spiritual energy in the area covered by the formation in Taoyuan Town was too thin to sustain the most basic operation of the formation. Thousands of years ago, this had already begun to overdraw Tao Yaoyao's vitality.
Rather, it was the lack of vitality that caused Yang Zhuohua to age rapidly, and the depletion of his spiritual power made his control over the formation less absolute.
