Ugly Cultivation Notes

Chapter 1349 Sadness

Familiar faces flashed through Xu Chunniang's mind.

Xiao Juzi and Xiao Bai, Gong Lao, Lingyun Fairy and Chi Xuzi, Dragon General and Bai Lu from the Demon Realm, Wang Tianjian who first entered the Immortal Realm, and Yue Yanru, Shen Miaoling, Zhao He, Xu Wanran and others from the Spirit Realm. .

These people include her master and her apprentices.

There are her best friends and her descendants.

When these people meet their fate, can she really stand by and remain indifferent?

Xu Chunniang knew that, at least for now, she couldn't do this. Otherwise, why would she save Little Orange?

With these thoughts flashing through her mind, Xu Chunniang took Little Orange and stepped into a fairly well-preserved stone palace.

As soon as he stepped into the stone palace, Little Orange couldn't help but shed tears.

She thought of the words that her mother-in-law told her before she died; she thought of her father who had never been masked but died because of her; and she thought of Xiaobai whose whereabouts were unknown.

"woo woo woo woo……"

Little Orange felt so sad that she couldn't help crying.

"It's so sad, so sad. Why do those high and mighty people force my father and mother to die?"

Although Xu Chunniang didn't cry as loudly as Little Orange, she still felt a deep sadness.

The road to spiritual cultivation was long and far, and when she looked back, there were only a few familiar faces left around her.

And these people seemed to be drifting away from her.

Those past experiences, either bitter or beautiful, became her only memory as time went by.

What is the end of monasticism?

Xu Chunniang's eyes showed a rare look of confusion.

At the end of this road, is it the bliss of enlightenment and transcendence, or is it just an illusion, leaving only loneliness and nothingness in the heart?

Infected by this sad emotion, the rock-solid Taoist heart in Xu Chunniang's heart actually had the slightest ripples at this moment.

She couldn't help but ask herself, is this long journey of spiritual practice to pursue the eternity that is far away, or to find a trace of inner peace in this impermanent world?

Those companions who once fought side by side and laughed and chatted about romance, as well as the many enemies she encountered on her way to cultivation, most of them have long since disappeared in the long river of history.

“Is what I’m pursuing really what I long for most in my heart?”

Such doubts lingered in Xu Chunniang's mind.

While building the road, she saw the beauty of heaven and earth, and struggled on the edge of life and death countless times.

Perhaps, she was already tired and should have stopped long ago.

As soon as this thought appeared in Xu Chunniang's mind, she felt strong unwillingness in her heart.

How could she give up so easily before seeing the peak?

No, no, wallowing in grief is not her usual style...

Xu Chunniang suddenly realized something. She suppressed the sadness in her heart, released her spiritual thoughts, and explored the surroundings.

This investigation revealed something was indeed wrong.

It turns out that this entire desert is a place of sorrow.

As early as she and Xiao Juzi left the ancient forest and saw the desert for the first time, they had already been tricked unknowingly.

After realizing the problem, Xu Chunniang tried to stay calm and not be affected by her sadness.

"Little Orange, wake up quickly and don't wallow in useless sadness!"

Xiao Juzi was shocked suddenly, with sadness still in her eyes. She raised her head and looked at Xu Chunniang with blurred eyes, "Sister?"

Xu Chunniang asked loudly, "Do you still remember where we are, why we came, and where we are going?" "Where we are, why we came, and where we are going? "

Xiao Juzi repeated it softly. She looked around, the sadness in her eyes gradually disappeared, and she regained clarity.

"I remembered, we were on the ancient road, after the ancient forest disappeared, we entered a desert..."

Thinking of this, Xiao Juzi took a breath of air and realized belatedly, "We have been plotted by the surviving family members who are still here!"

"good."

Xu Chunniang nodded slightly, "From the beginning of our time in this desert, we have been infected by sadness.

But at that time, the degree of infection was not high, so it was not noticed by us. "

"What a hidden method! My mother only warned me that the survivors in the desert seem to have some miraculous abilities, but I don't know that they can control people's emotions invisibly."

There was a look of fear in Xiao Juzi's eyes. If sister hadn't noticed something was wrong in time, she might have fallen into a sad mood until she lost herself and forgot everything.

There was a hint of emotion in Xu Chunniang's eyes.

"Seven emotions and six desires are human nature, and I didn't expect that the other party would take advantage of it by using this method."

As she spoke, Xu Chunniang turned her eyes and looked around, and she saw several survivors.

Seeing that their tactics were revealed, the faces of the survivors showed obvious panic, and they fled in all directions.

Xu Chunniang stretched out a hand and grabbed several people slowly and quickly.

Several survivors struggled to resist, but to no avail and were easily restrained.

"Let me wait!"

A short, gray-haired old man from the surviving family stared fiercely at Xu Chunniang.

"A few of us have shrunk here and have not cared about the world for many years. Do you, the outsiders who are willing to be driven by the witch and demon clans, want to drive us and other survivors to death?"

Facing the angry gaze of the deceased elder, Xu Chunniang slowly opened her mouth and revealed the truth.

"We are not here under the orders of the witch and demon clans. The ancient remnant clan has long been lost in the long river of history. Now, with the restart of the ancient road, a corner of the past has been reappeared."

"What? My family is all gone? Impossible!"

The old man's face changed drastically and he denied it categorically, "Don't try to deceive us with your words!"

Xu Chunniang said nothing, raised her hand and pointed towards a ruined building.

Under the influence of the power of time, the ruins quickly weathered and turned into invisible grains of gravel, disappearing in the wind.

But in a moment, the ruins that were several feet high disappeared completely.

Xu Chunniang looked at the old man again, "It would be easy for me to kill you, but killing you would do me no good. Now you should believe my words, right?"

As if the old man of the surviving clan had been hit hard, he instantly aged several hundred years, and his body began to tremble violently.

"No, it's impossible. The heads of the witch and demon clans have personally promised to let my surviving family live. They will not kill them all."

"Since you don't think they will kill you and others, why did they attack the two of us when we stepped into this place?"

A trace of pity flashed in Xu Chunniang's eyes. In fact, the old man already had the answer in his heart, but he just didn't want to believe it.

The old man staggered, looking sad, "Is it true that the fate of our clan cannot be rewritten?"
