Fast Travel Absurdity Sutra

Chapter 250 Sister's Trial Stone (1)

Lantian opened his eyes again and found himself lying weakly on the cold stones.

The surroundings were foggy, and with every breath, one could sense the rich spiritual energy in the air.

This is a world of cultivating immortals.

Oh my god, she finally returned to the world of cultivating immortals.

"Show off, have I arrived in a new world? Plot, send me the plot."

In front of Ergou's eyes, Lantian's body, which was almost torn apart by the rich spiritual energy, was still floating. When he suddenly heard Lantian's voice, he didn't react for a long time.

"Plot, hurry up, send me the plot."

At this moment, Lantian felt that this body was tired and hungry, and was filled with exhaustion all over. Even his mind was discouraged, and he was in a state of extreme dejection.

She couldn't help feeling a little irritated, speaking quickly and urgently, and was extremely impatient.

"Oh, oh, Sister Lantian, please accept the plot."

The arrogant Ergou finally reacted and quickly transmitted the entire story to Lantian.

A clear stream flowed in Lantian's sea of ​​consciousness, making her feel a little calmer.

She quickly tapped into this stream of clear water with her consciousness, and suddenly a large amount of memory appeared in her mind.

This time, Lantian transmigrated into the persona of Du Tian, ​​a concubine's daughter of the Du family, a prominent family of immortal cultivators in the Netherworld Continent. Du Tian was the eleventh child of Du Yu, the patriarch of the Du family. During one of Du Yu's training sessions, he made a minor mistake and stole Cuicui, a second-class maidservant who was serving him.

Cuicui had a childhood sweetheart, and she only waited three years to redeem herself and marry him. Heartbroken, Cuicui could do nothing about it. She was a peasant girl from a humble family, whose sons were valued over daughters. So they could help her brother find a wife, and sold her into slavery in the Du Mansion.

She was pretty and honest, so she was assigned by the mistress to serve in the master's study. Originally, she had not signed a death contract and could redeem herself after five years.

Madam He Min was furious when she learned of this. She was a very jealous person and could not tolerate her husband taking a concubine. However, outwardly, she maintained a virtuous image and arranged for all of her husband's concubines to be housed in the West Garden of the mansion, not too far from Du Yu's study.

He Min gave it a beautiful name, saying that it would make it convenient for the master to visit nearby.

However, despite his cultivation, Du Yu was only at the third level of Qi Refining. Years of no progress had led him to indulge himself, and he now had over thirty concubines. With so many concubines all confined to one courtyard, the daily life was filled with chaos and unrest.

Every time Du Yu went to the Western Garden, he was always fought over by many concubines, which was often ridiculous and Du Yu was fed up with it. Therefore, whenever he needed a concubine, he would temporarily look for one outside.

The entire Netherworld Continent is divided into three regions. The Netherworld Spirit Realm is where major cultivation sects gather. Among these are three top-tier immortal cultivation sects, the largest of which is the Netherworld Spiritual Sect, occupying the eastern edge of the Netherworld Spirit Realm. Surrounding these three major sects are numerous affiliated immortal cultivation families. There are five largest immortal cultivation families. The Du family is merely a minor family affiliated with the Wang family, one of the five major immortal cultivation families.

Du Yu was not very talented, and the Du family had already declined by his generation, with signs of being abandoned by the Wang family. Therefore, Du Yu placed great importance on the younger generation with strong family connections, even if they were from a collateral branch.

However, as a small family of cultivators, they had limited resources. It just so happened that Mrs. Du's daughter, Du Juan, had been found to have a single spiritual root, a fire spiritual root, since she was a child.

You know, in this world where spiritual roots are rare, even five spiritual roots are extremely rare. The Du family actually has a daughter with a single spiritual root, and Du Yu has put a lot of effort into cultivating Du Juan.

Cuicui was arranged by the lady with gritted teeth to live in the West Garden in a large bunk bed for six people.

They don’t have enough to eat or wear warm clothes every day, and they are not allowed to go out freely.

Cuicui felt as if her wings had been cut off and she could no longer fly.

Three months later, she found out she was pregnant, and He Min completely imprisoned her in Xiyuan.

Despite the hardships Cuicui suffered, she gave birth to Du Tian after ten months of pregnancy.

According to the Du family's custom, Du Tian was found to have five spiritual roots at birth.

Therefore, she was taken away from Cuicui since she was a child and grew up in the Du family's school.

In order to gather the information of the Du family, Du Yu trained all the concubines' daughters and sons with other spiritual roots to be Du Juan's followers, to test stones, and to collect blood bags.

When Du Tian was eight years old, the Netherworld Spiritual Sect began recruiting disciples. Du Yu was determined to send his daughter Du Juan, who had a single spiritual root, to join the Netherworld Spiritual Sect.

To be on the safe side, he gave Du Juan the Du family heirloom, the Zhuolong Huanling Bracelet. The Zhuolong Huanling Bracelet has a special function: when the owner's spiritual energy is exhausted, it can be exchanged for the spiritual energy of blood relatives to prolong their lives.

Only the head of the family knows this secret.

When Du Juan was climbing the stairs during the first round of trials after joining the sect, he was too eager for quick success and fell into an illusion of the stairs. He almost exhausted his spiritual power but was unable to figure it out.

If Du Juan fails to climb the mountain ladder with a high ranking, she will be eliminated from the selection for inner disciples in the first round.

Dujuan thought of her father's instructions and finally activated the Zhuolong Huanling Bracelet.

The Zhuolong Huanling Bracelet checked the Du family members around one by one and found that Du Tian was in good condition and full of spiritual energy.

Du Juan then activated the Dragon-Chopping and Rejuvenating Bracelet, returning her own dilapidated state to that of its original owner. She absorbed the original owner's spiritual energy and, relying on the original owner's simple thoughts, deciphered the illusion array, winning first place. She was noticed by the sect leader and accepted as a direct disciple.

The original owner couldn't understand why she suddenly lost all her spiritual power. However, with a pure heart and a strong will, she reached the top of the mountain within the stipulated time and was accepted as an outer disciple by the sect.

Originally, the two parties had been practicing peacefully on their own, and there had been no intersection or interference between them.

In this way, the original owner naturally would not have too much resentment and dissatisfaction in his heart.

However, things took an unexpected turn when the original owner successfully entered the inner gate through his own unremitting efforts, and made rapid progress and his cultivation level continued to rise.

Not long after the original owner stepped into the inner gate, Dujuan actually set her sights on the original owner again and started to have bad intentions towards her.

When the mysterious and dangerous ghost secret realm slowly opens, a gloomy and strange atmosphere hits you in the face.

Dujuan planned everything carefully, trying hard to form a team with the original owner.

Because when the Netherworld Spirit Sect enters this ghost secret realm, they will have a unique connection symbol.

As long as they possess this talisman, two disciples can sense each other's specific locations in the secret realm.

So, Du Juan put in a lot of thought and racked his brains, and finally succeeded in becoming a teammate with the original owner.

Soon after everyone stepped into this mysterious secret place, Dujuan quickly locked onto the original owner's location and followed closely behind him like a ghost.

Faced with Dujuan's close and persistent following, the original owner felt extremely disgusted and resentful.

She really didn't want to travel with Dujuan and just hoped to stay away from this person who made her unhappy.

But unfortunately, the original owner knew that he was weak and had no ability to refuse Dujuan's request or resist.

Furthermore, due to the special relationship between the two of them, if they rashly expressed dissatisfaction or resistance, it would probably only cause more unnecessary trouble and entanglement.

Therefore, even though the original owner was unwilling and resisted in every way, he could only choose to silently endure Dujuan's harassment and try to avoid direct conflict with her.

Finally, after going through numerous hardships and dangers, the original owner and Dujuan arrived at the treasure hiding place deep in the secret realm.

There stands a magnificent spiritual crystal pagoda, emitting a powerful aura that makes people's heart palpitate.

Du Juan knew that this spiritual crystal pagoda was the key treasure in this exploration of the secret realm, so she did not hesitate to use all her strength to snatch it.

However, just as this fierce battle was coming to an end, the spiritual energy in Dujuan's body had been exhausted.

As a last resort, she had to activate the Dragon-Chopping and Soul-Rejuvenating Bracelet in her hand, which instantly sucked away all the spiritual energy from the original owner!

In an instant, the original owner became extremely weak and no longer had any strength to resist.

Du Juan, who had been waiting for an opportunity, took the opportunity to take away the fruits of victory that should have belonged to the original owner.

To make matters worse, the out-of-control Spirit Crystal Pagoda suddenly erupted with a violent energy, and the spirit beast guarding the pagoda, the Spirit Crystal Lion, suddenly broke free from its restraints and pounced towards the original owner who had no power to fight back.

The poor original owner was brutally torn into countless pieces by the Spirit Crystal Lion's ferocious attack, ultimately meeting a tragic end...

After the life disappeared, the original owner's consciousness was still in a confused and misty state.

She always believed that the reason she suffered such a tragic end was entirely because her skills were not as good as others.

Although she was unwilling to accept this fate, she finally chose to accept it silently.

However, what was unexpected was that the original owner's soul, which should have gradually dissipated between heaven and earth, did not disappear completely. Instead, it followed Dujuan's figure closely and floated around like a ghost.

At first, she didn't know why she existed in this strange form, and just followed Dujuan blankly through every corner.

Until one day, an accidental opportunity allowed her to glimpse the shocking truth hidden behind the scenes - it turned out that her death was not simply due to the so-called "inferiority in skills"!

This discovery was like a bolt from the blue, instantly shattering her already numb heart.

Endless resentment and anger surged into his heart like a tide, gushing out uncontrollably, forming a powerful resentment that soared into the sky.

At this moment, Ergou, who was separated by several times and spaces, keenly sensed the wave of resentment rising into the sky.

With his unique perception ability and extraordinary tracking skills, Ergou quickly locked onto the source of the resentment and followed its breath all the way to its source.

Thus, Lantian accidentally broke into the world where the original owner lived...

Lantian couldn't help but frown slightly, secretly complaining in his heart.

The timing of this time travel was extremely bad, as if fate was deliberately playing a trick on the original owner, causing her to fall into such an embarrassing situation as soon as she traveled through this world.

It turned out that at this time, the hateful Dujuan had already taken the initiative to activate the Dragon-Chopping and Soul-Rejuvenating Bracelet!

This bracelet possesses a mysterious and powerful power that can transform all of a person's spiritual energy.

The poor original owner lost all his precious spiritual energy without any resistance, leaving only a broken and decayed body.

Lantian looked down at his current appearance and couldn't help feeling sad.

Before that, she lay quietly on the icy stone stairs, like an abandoned, shabby doll, with no one paying attention to her.

The air was filled with thick and suffocating white fog, which was like a thick curtain, tightly wrapping everything around.

The mists are not still, but flow and surge slowly as if they have life, sometimes gathering into clumps and sometimes dispersing.

Because the fog was too thick, Lantian's five senses, especially his vision, were almost completely obscured.

Looking around, all I could see was a vast expanse of white, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

The thick fog seemed to deliberately obstruct her vision, making her feel confused and helpless about where she was.

"Sister Lantian, Sister Lantian, are you okay?"

The concerned voice of Deserdog echoed in the depths of Lan Tian's mind.

The sound was like a flash of lightning that cut through the darkness, instantly breaking Lantian's current silence and confusion.

Lan Tian was extremely anxious. She knew that the situation was dangerous and she had to find out the situation around her as soon as possible.

So she concentrated her mind and tried to mobilize the spiritual energy in her body.

She closed her eyes tightly, silently practicing Qigong in her mind, guiding the majestic spiritual energy to converge towards her eyes.

However, the climbing ladder of the Netherworld Spirit Sect looked extremely strange.

Generally speaking, places like this would have restrictions prohibiting the use of spiritual energy, but here there were no restrictions on personal use of spiritual energy.

But even so, the mysterious white mist still has a strong blocking ability. It is like an indestructible barrier that easily isolates people's five senses: vision, hearing, smell, etc.

There are only two ways to break through this fog and see the real situation around you:

The first is to accurately apply one's own spiritual energy to the perception of the five senses to enhance their acuity; the second is to possess a powerful spiritual consciousness that can be projected outwards, penetrate the fog, and gain insight into the surrounding environment.

At this moment, Lantian, aware of the original owner's current predicament, is trying his best to try the first method.

In fact, at this critical moment, the original owner had already reached the end of his life.

The little spiritual energy left in her body flickered like a candle in the wind.

However, relying on years of practice experience and instinctive reaction, the original owner wanted to gather all the remaining spiritual energy into his eyes.

Because this approach is undoubtedly the wisest and most energy-saving choice for her who is extremely lacking in spiritual power at the moment.

As long as he could squeeze out even a tiny bit of spiritual energy, the original owner firmly believed that he would be able to see through the thick fog in front of him and see the surrounding environment clearly.

So, she gritted her teeth and put all her strength into practicing her skills.

But as her skills continued to work, Lantian's pretty face, which was originally quite rosy, gradually turned as pale as paper, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on her forehead.

What terrified her even more was that when she wanted to sense her own Dantian, she found that it was empty!

The dantian, which should have been filled with powerful spiritual energy and carried the foundation of her cultivation, now seemed to be hollow.

And the spiritual root that she regarded as her life disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.
