Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 257 The old man talks about the teenage madness

Suddenly, Liu Bihen's face flushed, and she came back to her senses. It seemed that she and her senior brother were too close.

At this moment, she was dressed in ragged clothes, and she was full of spring, and was hugged by her senior brother. A sense of embarrassment that she had never felt made her a little flustered, and her eyes drooped slightly.

Seeing her blushing cheeks, Li Daoxuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted. He took the initiative to let go, took off his cloak, and put it on his junior sister to cover his body.

"Junior Sister, I was in a hurry just now, so please don't mind."

After all, Liu Bihen is a genius with a clear sword heart, she has adjusted in just a moment, she wrapped her cloak tightly, and said with a smile: "Brother, we sons and daughters of the world, don't have to stick to it."

Li Daoxuan nodded, turned to look at the old Huai Yao, but was surprised to find that the other party had already escaped.

The pagoda tree forest became a piece of scorched earth, and the towering tree had become empty and disappeared, leaving only a bottomless pit in place.

Li Daoxuan shook his head, he didn't actually plan to break the contract, he just wanted to ask Huai Yao some more things, but he didn't expect that the other party was too scared and ran away.

……

Li Daoxuan activated his magical power of Zhaoyun, took his junior sister to find his aunt, and then the three of them flew in the direction of Yinshan Mountain.

There were no ghosts blocking the road, and it was very smooth. After a while, everyone arrived at Yinshan Mountain.

When he saw Master again, Li Daoxuan was taken aback.

I saw that the master at this time was no longer as energetic as before, but with dry white hair, wrinkles on his face, and age spots even appeared, making him look very vicissitudes and old.

Zhang Qianyang looked at his apprentice and Liu Ningyan, smiled casually, and said, "No matter what you look at, people will grow old, I just moved ahead of time."

While talking, he suddenly coughed violently, and even coughed up blood.

"Master!"

"Feng Jiao!"

Liu Ningyan dropped the long sword in her hand, ran over, touched the old face, her fingers trembling slightly.

Seeing this scene, Xu Qingxuan sighed softly, with sad eyes, feeling sorry for his old friend.

"This guy cast a secret technique, and at the expense of his lifespan, he forcibly returned to the Yang God Realm, and fought with Xudu. Although he couldn't die for the time being, but... it won't be long."

Xu Qingxuan turned his back and pressed down the bamboo hat to cover his slightly rosy eyes.

In this battle, Zhang Qianyang has already run out of fuel, and if there is no external help, it will be a few months at most, and he will not be able to hold on.

Li Daoxuan took a deep look at his master, then silently entered the cave without saying a word.

The Empress in Tsing Yi was constantly urging the true fire of samadhi, and the medicinal fragrance gradually began to waft from the Xuanyuan cauldron, and a faint golden light bloomed.

Li Daoxuan didn't dare to disturb her, he found a corner and sat down silently.

He was a little ashamed and a little scared.

Taishang Jinye can restore Master's injuries, but can it restore his life span?

If not, how should he face his aunt and uncle?

The reason why they were willing to take risks with themselves was to help Master heal his injuries, but in the end they made Master's injuries flare up earlier?

What Li Daoxuan was more afraid of was because of himself, he killed his master and the first person in the world who regarded him as a relative.

While doing alchemy, Tsing Yi Empress also noticed Li Daoxuan's abnormality.

She is ice-snow smart, and quickly guessed Li Daoxuan's knot, hesitated, and said: "It is true that Taishang Jinye can't directly increase lifespan, but..."

Hearing this but, Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up, and he looked at the empress expectantly.

"However, the Taishang Golden Liquid can restore Zhang Qianyang's Yangshen cultivation, and after stepping into the Yangshen realm, his lifespan will be increased once."

"How long can it grow?"

"About sixty years."

Li Daoxuan breathed a sigh of relief immediately, one Jiazi is 60 years, and 60 years is enough for him to cultivate to a higher level.

And with the help of the "Book of Demon Swinging Heaven", they might be able to obtain more panacea, such as the flat peaches of the Queen Mother, the golden pills of the Supreme Lord, those are all gods that can greatly increase the lifespan.

In a word, as long as Li Daoxuan is given time, he has the confidence to change his fate against the sky!

After hearing what the empress said, Li Daoxuan's knots in his heart were untied a lot, and his whole body regained his spirit. He bowed to the empress gratefully, then stepped back, sat cross-legged in meditation, and guarded quietly.

He didn't immediately announce the news rashly, but wanted to wait until the Supreme Gold Liquid was refined and everything settled before announcing.

Time passed little by little.

Outside the cave, everyone fell into a kind of calm after the war.

Everyone was sitting together, mainly Zhang Qianyang and Xu Qingxuan were talking, these two people didn't know what they were talking about, sometimes they laughed boldly with white hair, and sometimes their faces were red and their ears were red, and they beat their chests and feet.

Liu Ningyan looked at them quietly, smiling without saying a word.

Wrapped in Li Daoxuan's cloak, Liu Bihen was reminiscing about the battle with the sword ghost, and would sometimes gesticulate in the air with her fingers. Only occasionally, when she came to her senses, she would look into the cave, as if worried about something.

Junior brother Wu Wei was cleaning his overwhelming stick. During the process, everyone stayed away from him, but he didn't care. He looked at the stick and giggled, as if a door to a new world had opened.

Taoist Xuancheng was reprimanding Lu Chunliang, but seeing his starving and emaciated appearance, he still couldn't hold back, took out a big chicken leg from the storage ring, and handed it to him.

Lu Chunliang gnawed on the chicken leg and cried while eating, saying that he would practice hard when he went back, and would never leave the mountain privately again.

……

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the Xuanyuan Ding in the cave made a muffled sound, and wisps of seductive medicinal fragrance wafted in, which lifted people's spirits as soon as they smelled it, as if their souls were joyful.

Everyone looked at each other with excitement in their eyes, and they hurried into the cave.

The Tsing Yi Empress raised her jade finger, and the cauldron cover slowly flew up, shining golden light, it was a ball of golden liquid, there were about a dozen drops, it seemed very viscous, and it was constantly flowing.

"It's... it's done?"

Li Daoxuan asked excitedly.

The Tsing Yi Empress frowned slightly, and said: "After another nine breaths, after nine breaths, if it is still golden, it is a success, if it changes color, it is a failure."

Li Daoxuan and his aunt looked at each other, then held their breath, looking at the ball of golden liquid.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

Until the seventh breath, it was still golden, and it seemed that the chance of success was very high.

However, before Li Daoxuan was happy, at the eighth breath, the golden liquid began to dim and turned gray, and at the ninth breath, it even turned completely dark black, becoming extremely pitch black.

The original medicinal fragrance immediately dissipated and was replaced by a thick stench, as if all the turbid things in the world gathered here.

Even looking at the flowing blackness, it still gives people a feeling of trepidation, as if they are facing the deepest evil in this world.

Failed……

Li Daoxuan seemed to be struck by lightning, and his whole body was lost, and he didn't even hear the voice of Master calling him.

Empress Tsing Yi said before that the success rate of using the ghost king Xudu to refine the Supreme Gold Liquid is only five or five, because although Xudu is very powerful, he has not yet fully cultivated into a ghost fairy.

Empress Tsing Yi frowned slightly, she stood there quietly, reviewed the whole alchemy process, there was nothing wrong with her techniques.

In other words, it is really a problem with the empty stomach itself...

It's just that no matter whose problem it is now, alchemy has failed after all, which means that Zhang Qianyang's life is not long.

Maybe she can only find a way to help Zhang Qianyang turn into a ghost cultivator, otherwise Li Daoxuan will inevitably fall into self-blame, and may even become the demon of his practice.

Zhang Qianyang walked over, patted his apprentice on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Isn't it just that the alchemy failed, what is there to be depressed about?"

Li Daoxuan didn't dare to look at his master's old face, his voice trembled slightly, and said: "Master, this alchemy is actually for—"

"It's for me."

Zhang Qianyang interrupted him and smiled.

Li Daoxuan raised his head in surprise, a little astonished.

"Stinky boy, with your tricks, do you want to hide it from your teacher?"

As the person concerned, Zhang Qianyang was not only not at all depressed, but also very relaxed. He patted Li Daoxuan on the shoulder and said, "Sit."

Just standing for a while, Zhang Qianyang was a little out of breath.

The two sat on the ground, Zhang Qianyang took out the wine gourd from his waist and handed it to the disciple.

"I guessed this matter a long time ago. You are not an impulsive person, not to mention Ningyan and Dabao, but you all chose to go to the Underworld by coincidence. At that time, I guessed that you were not for yourself."

Li Daoxuan drank a big mouthful of strong wine, which flowed into his abdomen like a burning knife, but it was not as sad as his heart.

"Master, it's all my fault. If you hadn't come to the Underworld, you wouldn't be forced to use the secret method, at least you can live longer—"

Zhang Qianyang shook his head and said, "Fart!"

Li Daoxuan was a little puzzled.

"Look at your master, does it look like someone who will linger on his last breath and wait for death?"

Zhang Qianyang smiled proudly. Although his face was old, his eyes were still bright, like snow on a high mountain.

"I originally planned to bring you back to Longhu Mountain as a teacher. After learning the wordless book, I will let you become a teacher, and then..."

He said proudly, "Then as a teacher, I will find a few old monsters who like to harm people, and use the secret method to return to the Yang God Realm. Fuck it!"

Instead of lingering in a corner where no one is around, it is better to fight vigorously with great brilliance!
After a pause, he patted Li Daoxuan on the shoulder and said, "I am very satisfied with this trip to the Underworld."

He smiled triumphantly: "I will go underground to meet old friends in the future, and I can brag to them as a teacher. We are the ones who beat the empty belly, and that is the king of empty belly ghosts. Do they dare?"

"Believe it or not, the teacher said this, and those guys have to admire the whole body. That scene, tsk tsk, makes me happy just thinking about it!"

Seeing Master's complacent and proud look, Li Daoxuan couldn't help laughing too, but when he smiled, his eyes became moist.

This evil world of the underworld even flew sand.

"Okay, we cultivators don't love our sons and daughters. When we die as a teacher in the future, we don't need to be buried in the burial, so as not to be used by those who want to turn into zombies. You can sprinkle the ashes of the teacher into the sea. The place is big and spacious. "

Li Daoxuan wiped his eyes, just about to speak.

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in his mind, and then connected with various clues of this trip to the underworld, and vaguely, he seemed to have touched a terrible truth.

"Master, say what you just said again!"

he said excitedly.

Zhang Qianyang was a little puzzled, and said: "We cultivators don't love each other—"

"No, it's the last sentence!"

"You will scatter the ashes of the teacher to the sea, the place there is big and spacious."

Li Daoxuan jumped up excitedly, and said: "That's it!"

He said excitedly: "So that's it, I finally understand why the refining of Taishang Gold Liquid failed!"

　Thanks to the black love and gray brothers for the rewards, thank you for your support!

　　Than heart!
