Longevity, starting from raising chickens

The Jade Fire Tung tree, with its fiery crown that looks like a sunset glow, dyes the surrounding area with a glow of fire.

On the surface of the black elixir, the remaining soul of Man Daoist, which had shrunk a lot, looked extremely miserable under the light of the fire.

His eyes were filled with sorrow and almost despair.

Wang Ba looked at the Taoist priest in front of him, his face full of surprise.

Although he had never underestimated the other party's caution, he did not expect that even when he was about to ascend, the other party still had such a trick up his sleeve.

He subconsciously asked:
"Who is that black hand?"

Hearing Wang Ba's question, Taoist Man slowly came back to his senses, but a look of confusion flashed across his eyes, and he shook his head:

"I, I'm not sure either... In order to ensure the safety of this soul, the connection between the main body and the soul was completely severed when they were separated. But the situation encountered by the main body, according to what I know, may only be the opponent of that... Immortal Lord."

The Immortal Lord’s opponent?
Is that Tiber?

Wang Ba's mind turned slightly, and then he realized the worry of Man Daoren's split soul.

If that black hand was really Tiber, then once his real name was spoken at this moment, with the means of the immortals, it would most likely be sensed by him, and the consequences would be unimaginable, so Taoist Man did not dare to speak his name.

But Man Dao Ren was so sure about the division of soul, obviously he was somewhat confident.

But Wang Ba then narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Taoist Man with a bit of scrutiny in his eyes:

"Then fellow Daoist hid his soul in this pill in order to take over my body while I was taking the pill?"

Taoist Man looked sad, looked down at his own floating body, and said with a sad smile:
"Fellow Daoist Ye, do you think I still have this ability now?"

"If I really wanted to take over your body, why would I reveal it?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba just sneered.

No matter how miserable the other party behaves, he will never forget that when the other party was in the Immortal Land, he was powerless and yet was able to deceive them and the Six-Fingered Innate God and Demon, and eventually even the Six-Fingered Innate God and Demon died as a result.

He is very scheming, always calculating and deceiving people without blinking an eye. He would carefully examine every word that this Taoist said.

Seeing Wang Ba being so cautious, Taoist Man could only smile bitterly. How much regret he felt in his heart, perhaps only he himself knew.

But after laughing sadly, he regained his composure and said seriously:
"I listened to your advice and didn't refine all the pills, so it took me a little longer. Finally, I completed the last step of the ascension by myself. Before I passed the lightning tribulation, I was also very careful all the way until I finally succeeded. When I was very proud of myself, I just thought that you were the reincarnation of the immortal. Since you didn't interfere, there was naturally no problem. So I just did something idle as usual. So this split soul is better than nothing."

Wang Ba listened with a slightly fixed gaze, but said nothing, knowing that he had more to say.

Sure enough, Taoist Man then said:

"But just as his original body was about to ascend, he was tragically knocked down. Among the people I have seen and known, the only two immortals I can think of who have this ability are these two. Daoist friend is the reincarnation of an immortal king. Since he didn't make a move, it could only be that person..."

Wang Ba frowned slightly and suddenly interrupted:

"Why do you think I am the reincarnation of an immortal? I don't think so."

Man Daoren shook his head slightly:

"Whether it is true or not, let me ask you, fellow Taoist, apart from you, who else can break out of my hands several times? And get all the benefits?"

"If it weren't for the Immortal Lord's luck, how could he have done this?"

Wang Ba was slightly startled, frowned again, and suddenly said:

"Not this time... you took those two elixirs from me."

Speaking of elixirs, Taoist Man laughed bitterly:

"If we look at it from that time, it seems that I did win over Daoyou, but looking at it today, I suddenly realized that this might not be a move by the Immortal Lord to retreat in order to advance."

"chess?"

Wang Hao's heart moved slightly.

It seemed that Man Daoren shared the same idea as him.

Sure enough, I heard Taoist Man say with a look of reminiscence in his eyes:
"In Chen Xuan's memory, the Immortal King and that person had communicated several times, and there seemed to be some disagreements. After that, both sides ordered their subordinates to fight each other, just like chess pieces on a chessboard, attacking and defending each other. After that, the situation under the Immortal King became increasingly corrupt. Seeing this, Chen Xuan had a strange idea in his mind. While the Immortal King was fighting with that person, he wanted to steal the Immortal King's things and ascend to heaven..."

"The battle between the Immortal King and that person broke out very suddenly. After a fierce battle, the Immortal King suddenly died. At that time, the entire sea of ​​​​worlds was filled with strange phenomena, and it also attracted the attention of the ancient monks from both sides of the war. I don’t know how many opportunities are hidden in the remains of an immortal. As a result, these people were affected by the will of the Immortal King and sank from then on. After a long time, I was born."

"But it is clear that although the Immortal Lord and that person seem to be dead and injured, and the battle seems to be over, their game has not stopped yet."

"The Sea of ​​Chaos is more like that person's work, with big openings and closings, and careful planning at every step. It's hard to get in even if you splash water. This is probably a trap set by that person specifically for the Immortal King. Although the Immortal King lagged behind, he also made arrangements, so that I got four immortal pills countless thousands of years later and had the possibility of ascending. But he must have known that it would be difficult to break the game with just this one step, so...if my guess is correct, I was actually the one thrown out by the Immortal King to explore the way, and there was someone else who really walked out of this game."

After saying that, he looked at Wang Ba, his eyes showing a bit more complexity, awe and respect:

"This person might be Fellow Daoist Ye."

Wang Hao was slightly silent.

Then he shook his head firmly and said:

"not me."

When Taoist Man heard this, he just thought that Wang Ba was unwilling to accept this fact.

Changed his tone:
"Even if you are not the reincarnation of an immortal, you must be related. Of course, you could also be a living being in your world... but it may not have awakened its wisdom at this moment."

Wang Ba asked in return:

"Then tell me, if the Immortal King is really in my world, what is his purpose?"

Taoist Man frowned, thought hard for a while, and whispered:
"Perhaps... a place to seek temporary shelter?"

Wang Ba was not satisfied with what he said and rejected it:

"With your ability, why would you need to seek shelter in a small world like mine? Do you have any other malicious intentions?"

Taoist Man suddenly thought of something and said uncertainly:
"I can't say he has any ill intentions. Although the Immortal King is decisive in killing, his cultivation is not ruthless... But could it be that his purpose is to... cultivate in public but do things in secret?"

"Openly repairing but secretly doing it?"

Wang Ba was startled for a moment, then woke up as if from a dream, nodded blankly and said:

"That's right! Why didn't I think of that? Openly doing the repairs but secretly doing the repairs, openly doing the repairs but secretly doing the repairs..."

As he was in the situation, sometimes he could not see it clearly, but Man Dao Ren, as an outsider, could see things clearly and pointed out the possibility at once.

Wang Ba, who was awakened, was also refreshed, and it seemed that some of the burdens in his heart were relieved a lot.

Taoist Man was a little puzzled, but at this moment, these were just trivial matters. He said in a deep voice:

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I have been planning for many years. Although everything has been lost in one day, I still have a lot of accumulated experience. Fellow Daoist Ye has not yet awakened his wisdom. This is the time when he needs me. I am willing to work for Fellow Daoist Ye, but I hope there will be a glimmer of opportunity in the future..."

Wang Ba felt relieved and felt much happier. He smiled and said:
"Let alone the fact that I am not the reincarnation of the Immortal Lord, even if I were, would the Immortal Lord definitely be interested in you?"

Taoist Man shook his head and said:

"Whether the Immortal Lord thinks highly of me or not is not important to the Immortal Lord or to me. The Immortal Lord is magnanimous. I am just a profit-seeking villain who uses his power to make things clear and turbid. Moreover, I may be able to help Fellow Daoist Ye leave this sea of ​​chaos."

Wang Ba was a little nonchalant about what he said before, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but be shocked. He didn't try to hide his true emotions and said in a hurry:
"Do you have any lies, fellow Daoist?"

Taoist Man hesitated for a moment, and finally said seriously:

"If you say 99% chance, it's naturally unlikely, but if I'm here, Fellow Daoist Ye's chance of escaping from here is much greater than if Fellow Daoist Ye finds a way on his own."

At this time, even if it offends Wang Ba, you must convince him first.

Sure enough, although he knew that it was difficult to tell whether what Taoist Man said was true or false, Wang Ba still hesitated for a very short time, then suddenly showed a bright smile on his face and looked at Taoist Man:

"Then welcome fellow Daoist to join the Xiaocang world."

Taoist Man was slightly stunned, then he also started laughing.

Standing on the black elixir, he bowed respectfully to Wang Ba:
"Man, I meet the Lord."

Communicating with smart people is refreshing. You just need to present your value and you don’t have to worry about the other party not accepting it.

Wang Ba and Man Dao Ren are undoubtedly smart people. "By the way, why don't you go outside the Immortal Land to transcend the tribulation? Will people outside the Immortal Land also be affected?"

Wang Ba suddenly thought of a question and asked immediately.

Taoist Man was very quick to react to Wang Ba's quick entry into the role, and explained:

"The Immortal Land and the Immortal Pass together form the environment of the Sea of ​​Chaos. If I want to leave the Immortal Land, I must still be in the form of pure will. Once I turn from virtual to real, I will always be stuck in the white fog. There is no way to leave unless I enter the Sea of ​​Chaos."

Wang Ba frowned, but was a little unconvinced:

"Why is this happening? The Immortal Absolute Land is the physical body of the Immortal Lord, so why is it trapping me?"

Taoist Man shook his head and said:

"It may not be the Immortal Lord's own idea. Maybe the rules outside the Immortal Absolute Land have already been set by that person, but he just hasn't noticed it yet."

After hearing what Taoist Man said, Wang Ba felt a little depressed.

He originally thought that after Taoist Man ascended to heaven, the direction of the Immortal Land might also be an option to escape from the Sea of ​​Chaos.

However, this path is now rejected by Man Dao Ren.

Although this reason seemed a bit far-fetched to him.

Seeing that Wang Ba didn't quite trust his words, Man Daoren immediately changed his words and said:
"Of course, maybe the master is the reincarnation of an immortal king. Unlike me, he can leave the immortal land."

Wang Ba heard this, hesitated, and asked:
"Then why can you help me leave this place?"

Taoist Man did not hide anything and told his own method:
"Boundary Sea Whirlpool."

"Boundary Sea Whirlpool?"

Wang Ba frowned:
"Didn't you say before that this whirlpool of the Sea of ​​Realm can only be entered but not exited? Could it be that you were lying to me before?"

Seeing Wang Ba's unhappy expression, Taoist Man said quickly:

"No, the boundary sea vortex here is indeed one that can only be entered but not exited. But that was before. Now I have used the boundary sea to attract the thunder tribulation and sensed some of the aura outside the Immortal Pass. With this as a guide, I just need to find a natural boundary sea vortex. With the help of the rule changes, I may be able to leave this place."

When Wang Ba heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up!
Although Man Daoren is now a remnant soul, he has crossed the gap between immortals and mortals after all. His understanding of the rules must be different from before. Maybe there is really hope that he can take them away from here.

I blurt out:

"I know there is a whirlpool in the boundary sea. According to calculations, it will open again in more than one thousand to two or three thousand years."

"Oh? That's perfect."

Taoist Man was a little surprised, and then said:

"Then when the time comes, I will explore it, find the loopholes, and adjust the rules in time, and then everything will be fine..."

As he was speaking, Taoist Man suddenly shuddered, and his entire remaining soul swayed and shrank like a candle in the wind, and was about to go out!

Suddenly he shouted:

"Lord, save me!"

Wang Ba was shocked when he saw this, and immediately realized that the remaining soul of Man Daoren was much weaker than he had expected.

He quickly raised his hand and activated the Dao Domain to surround it, then quickly said:

"Daoyou needs a body as a house. I have a magical chicken, a magical turtle, a magical snake, and a magical bird... Which one do you want to choose?"

Although the regret was extremely weak, when he heard the choice given by Wang Ba, Taoist Man was suddenly stunned. Then he lost his composure and said angrily:

"Can't you give it to someone?"

Wang Ba shook his head:

"What crime have they committed?"

Man Daoren was even more anxious:
"What is the sin of the spirit beast?"

Wang Ba, however, looked determined:

"You will definitely not want to be with a foolish mortal body, and cultivators are all conscious, so it is impossible for me to give you one. Apart from spiritual beasts, there is really nothing else... You can join the spiritual chickens I cultivate. There happens to be a fellow cultivator who can introduce you to them."

The remaining soul of Taoist Man glanced at the chickens, ducks and geese in the distance that were tilting their heads to look at him, and he felt a darkness before his eyes.

He vaguely regretted why he chose to entrust his backup to the other party.

Just feeling his body getting weaker and weaker, his eyes turned quickly and suddenly fell on an object, his eyes lit up:
"That's it!"

Wang Ba was slightly stunned, but saw that the place where Taoist Man was pointing was the Jade Fire Paulownia Tree.

The Jade Fire Paulownia Tree is a fifth-rank spiritual plant, but since it has been nourished by the blood and power of immortals, it can no longer be judged solely by its rank.

But no matter how magical it is, it is still a spiritual plant, and it takes a much longer time to cultivate than ordinary spiritual beasts and humans.

"Do you really want to choose this? I am not good at spiritual plants, so I may not be able to take good care of it."

Wang Ba reminded.

Man Dao Ren said quickly:
"What I cultivate is the way of green wood growth. It is only natural for me to cultivate again among the spiritual plants."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba did not obstruct him and pushed the remaining soul of Man Taoist into the Jade Fire Paulownia Tree.

As the remaining soul of Taoist Man drilled into the tree, the Jade Fire Tung Tree suddenly shook violently, and the flames flickered like a volcanic eruption, illuminating the entire secret realm of beads in a fiery red.

This strange movement lasted for a whole month, and the Jade Fire Paulownia Tree finally stopped shaking.

And on the tree trunk, there was also a faint face belonging to Man Dao Ren.

Feeling the aura of Man Daoist gradually stabilizing in the tree, Wang Ba nodded, and then held the dark pill in his hand in front of Man Daoist:
"Daoyou, this elixir..."

Taoist Man hesitated for a moment, then said:
"After I refined the first three immortal pills, there was nothing unusual. My Lord, you may use them when you break through the great realm, and they may have miraculous effects."

"However, my lord, it is best not to use it in this sea of ​​chaos... I am still worried that there will be some problems."

Now that he has merged into the Jade Fire Tung Tree, he and the Ogura Realm will share the same fate. Therefore, out of caution, he still gave his own judgment. This may seem to be a deviation from his original move of giving away the elixir, but it is actually consistent.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba felt a little regretful, but still nodded.

He listened to others' advice and had enough food. Although the temptation to rush into the Tribulation Realm was extraordinary, he was able to distinguish between good and bad after all.

He then let Taoist Man rest and recover, while he began to pay attention to the news outside.

Although Man Daoren failed to ascend to heaven, it also represents that a certain opportunity has matured.

Sure enough, he soon received letters from Gan Xiong and Yan Zhi, and the speed of Yuhu Realm's attack on various forces suddenly increased significantly.

The already turbulent sea of ​​chaos finally became completely chaotic.

Only the immortal place is still peaceful.

But this kind of peace was eventually broken by some fleeing forces.

Xiaocangjie had no choice but to go deeper into the immortal land.

Gan Xiong and Yan Zhi repeatedly invited Wang Ba to come forward and unite various forces to fight against the Yuhu Realm. Wang Ba was rarely entangled.

He really didn't want to get involved in the muddy waters of the Sea of ​​Chaos, especially after he saw hope of leaving from Man Daoren.

But he also knew that the tree wanted to be still but the wind did not stop. Now that the source of danger in the Immortal Absolute Land had disappeared, sooner or later, the Jade Pot Realm would come knocking on their door. By then, only the Ogura Realm would be left to fight against the Jade Pot Realm alone, and their chances of winning were extremely slim...

And it was in this entanglement and dilemma.

Two pieces of news, one after the other, unexpectedly flew into Wang Ba's hands.

"Yan Zhi's news: The Imperial Bandits were intercepted and killed by another group of robbers not long ago, and their entire army was wiped out..."

"Gao Yu and Shu Yuanzi sent a letter saying that there is something unusual happening in the vortex of the boundary sea near the Demon Capturing Path?!" (End of this chapter)
