Chapter 1 What?

Huang Qing'er was slightly stunned, while Wushe Daoren remained expressionless.

Bai Lian Daoren subconsciously swept his divine sense around, but the sky above and the ground below were empty, without the slightest fluctuation of mana, let alone any figures.

Then he sneered repeatedly, "Ru Daoren, stop trying to mystify things. It's truly laughable that you would say such words with your cultivation!"

With his cultivation, perhaps someone could use secret techniques to get close, but it was impossible to appear and still escape his divine sense.

His tone was indifferent and stern, containing great power, as if he might strike at any moment.

But Ru Daoren seemed not to hear him at all, cupping his hands with a bitter face, his attitude respectful and humble:

"I didn't know a Real Person was here. This junior was reckless..."

"Hmm?"

Seeing the unguarded Ru Daoren, Bai Lian Daoren hesitated.

Huang Qing'er had already turned to look.

With this one look, her heart turned ice-cold, as if a torrent of cold air was pouring in, freezing her bone marrow.

"Real, An Real Person..."

Huang Qing'er's body stiffened, and the red gourd behind her let out a sharp cry, like a startled hen.

"What?!"

Bai Lian Daoren's expression finally changed.

His face shifted drastically as he slowly turned around, and he saw a white-robed Daoist walking unhurriedly down the long street.

The Daoist was draped in white, his long hair flowing over his shoulders. His steps were measured, as if with a ruler, each step the same distance, each step as if on the very center of heaven and earth, the point where yin and yang meet.

He came unhurriedly, seemingly without the slightest imposing manner.

But Bai Lian Daoren's heart turned ice-cold.

Not too many people participated in the Wanfa Conference of Xishan Wanfa Altar, but many more were spying through various means. They were in Qingdu City and naturally had seen that battle.

The scene of this white-robed Daoist fighting with Tianyi Daoren, and the subsequent scene of him obliterating nearly a hundred Real People with one move, were still deeply imprinted in his heart.

How could he not recognize this man?

Whoosh~

In the gentle cold wind, An Qisheng stopped in front of the Tianyi teaching, glanced faintly at the eaves, and the few people in mid-air, and asked:

"Picking peaches?"

At the Xishan Wanfa Altar Conference, he collected the spiritual imprints of more than a hundred Real People and Great Real People. Now, three or four rogue cultivators were no longer enough to move him.

"We wouldn't dare, we wouldn't dare!"

Including the expressionless Wushe Daoren, all four shook their heads in unison, not daring to hesitate in the slightest.

Having witnessed his ruthless actions before, they knew the kind of cruel methods that were concealed beneath this Daoist's immortal-like appearance.

"Is that so?"

An Qisheng retracted his gaze and walked into the Tianyi teaching. His calm voice echoed in the hearts of the four people at the same time:

"Come down, follow me."

Before the words were finished, he had already stepped into the Tianyi teaching headquarters.

In mid-air, the four looked at each other, seeing the fear and apprehension in each other's eyes, but they dared not say no, and obediently landed, obediently following.

When Sa Wuling hurried up carrying Yan Xiake on his back, he saw four great experts who were unfathomable in his eyes.

They followed behind An Qisheng with their heads lowered like quails, and he felt very strange.

The Tianyi teaching headquarters was magnificent and resplendent to the extreme.

This was not an empty phrase.

For a hundred years, the Tianyi teaching had plundered countless gold and silver. This headquarters was almost entirely built of gold and silver mixed with copper and iron. Every inch was engraved with runes, and the formation behind it could be vaguely seen.

This formation was subtly connected to the one in the imperial city.

However, it had already been broken.

The person who broke the formation was now in the Tianyi teaching headquarters.

"Teacher."

Ye Xiaoyi bowed respectfully, her eyes filled with affection.

Although it was the first time she had met her teacher, in fact, this teacher had been guiding her in her mind for several years.

She had survived to this day because of this teacher.

"This..."

Sa Wuling put down the half skeleton on his back, took two steps forward, looked at the seemingly mature girl a few times, and looked at An Qisheng in disbelief:

"Teacher, who is this little girl..."

"This is Xiaoyi, your junior sister."

An Qisheng stroked Ye Xiaoyi's long hair. This little girl was only twelve years old at this time, and looked even younger, perhaps only eight or nine years old, but she seemed quite mature.

He couldn't help but think of the past.

In the Jiu Fu Realm, his female disciple would still cry at the drop of a hat when she was this age...

Unfortunately, the past could not be recalled.

"Junior sister..."

Sa Wuling looked at the little girl a few times. The little girl was not tall, only reaching his chest. She was not very pretty, and she was not very cheerful. She looked rather bitter.

There were mana fluctuations on her body, but she seemed to be wearing a treasure, and it was impossible to see what her cultivation level was.

"Xiaoyi greets Senior Brother."

Ye Xiaoyi bowed respectfully, her voice still cold.

"Junior sister is so beautiful. This is Senior Brother..."

Sa Wuling touched his sleeve, wanting to take out a gift, but then he remembered that he was penniless. The talismans he had accumulated over the years had all been thrown away. He could only smile awkwardly and change the subject:

"Ahem, junior sister, how many years have you been cultivating? What is your cultivation level?"

Ye Xiaoyi raised her head, and a smile flashed in her eyes:

"Answering Senior Brother, Xiaoyi has been cultivating for three and a half years, and has just cultivated her natal life. It is not as profound as Senior Brother's cultivation..."

"Cultivated your natal life? Not bad, not bad... No, wait, did you say natal life?"

Sa Wuling subconsciously wanted to express his appreciation, but suddenly came back to his senses and his eyes widened:

"You, in just over three years, you've reached the natal life stage?"

"It's almost four years."

The smile in Ye Xiaoyi's eyes deepened.

In the past few years, she had been deeply suppressed in the Tianyi teaching, and the hatred in her heart had never stopped for a moment. She was very tense, and she had never told anyone her true cultivation level.

Only at this moment, in front of her master and senior brother, did she relax and have a bit of a little girl's playfulness.

"Four years..."

Sa Wuling's face was a little stiff, and he didn't know what to say.

He had spent more than ten years seeking immortals and visiting Daoists, more than twenty years burning fire and refining pills for others, ten years guarding the border, and performing funeral rites and transcending souls for others, and a few more years of cultivation, before he could barely reach the point equivalent to the natal life stage.

And his teacher's dog, his little junior sister who looked only eight or nine years old, had surpassed him...

Even though his temperament was considered calm, he couldn't hold it back at this time.

"We shouldn't have been so lucky. If we had escaped earlier..."

Ru Daoren, Bai Lian Daoren, Huang Qing'er, and Wushe looked at the three masters and disciples, and all smiled bitterly in their hearts.

What were they doing here?

"Teacher, the Tianyi teaching is already empty. After the life lamps of Tianyi, the old thief, and Xiao Feng, the old thief, went out, those incense Daoists and traveling Daoists took everything they could..."

Ye Xiaoyi pointed to the backyard:

"Only the backyard, no one can enter. Anyone who trespassed died cleanly..."

"Xiaoyi, you and your senior brother go to the woodshed and bring that old Daoist here."

An Qisheng instructed and walked towards the backyard.

In this world, there are many who break formations with their lives. Could this Real Person be thinking of...?

Ru Daoren and the four looked at each other, seeing the trepidation in each other's eyes, but there was nothing they could do, so they could only bite the bullet and follow.

No one thought of escaping or resisting.

This Daoist had obliterated dozens of Real People with one move. The four of them were probably no match for even one of his fingers.

However, to the surprise of several people, An Qisheng stepped into the backyard so easily, as if there was no formation at all.

"This..."

Bai Lian Daoren's pupils shrank.

Not only Ru Daoren, but the three of them had also tried the backyard several times, but no matter what methods they used, they could not break the formation and enter.

This was why they wanted to clear other threats first, and then break the formation violently.

"This Real Person..."

Ru Daoren's heart also sank, vaguely feeling that he was in trouble this time.

......

"Sigh..."

Liansheng Daoren sighed deeply. He vaguely felt the movements outside, but unfortunately, all his mana and supernatural powers were sealed, and he couldn't know what was happening.

Unfortunately, he was old and frail. Even if there was no one guarding him, he could not escape this mere woodshed.

Creak~

With a soft sound, the door opened.

Liansheng looked up to shield his eyes from the harsh sunlight, and saw a strange man in a cloak leading a seven or eight-year-old girl into the woodshed.

"Daoist priest, my teacher wants to see you."

Ye Xiaoyi glanced at Liansheng, and she knew something about this person.

It was said that Xiao Feng originally wanted to take him to the Wanfa Conference to humiliate him, but he didn't expect that this person would sing loudly and mock him in front of more than a hundred Real People at the banquet.

This angered Xiao Feng, who directly sealed his supernatural powers and mana, wanting to let him wait for death.

"Oh."

Liansheng got up, patted his clothes, and raised his eyebrows slightly:

"Lead the way."

He didn't ask anything, and he didn't care at all.

Although his clothes were ragged and his face was dirty, he had a natural sense of ease.

Sa Wuling couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

Ye Xiaoyi didn't say much, pulled Sa Wuling, and walked out of the woodshed.

"A turning point, a turning point, is it coming at this time?"

Looking up at the sunlight that he hadn't seen for a long time, Liansheng murmured in his heart.

He had traveled all over the Qing States of Daqing, collected many portraits of Kui Xing, and used the remaining incense and vows on them to invite Kui Xing to descend and calculate a divination, his last turning point in the human realm.

It was in Qingdu City at this very moment.

Whoosh whoosh~~~

The cold wind traveled through the empty Tianyi teaching headquarters. The Tianyi teaching headquarters, with many temples emptied, was already another world after only half a day.

Following Ye Xiaoyi, Sa Wuling walked for a while, and Liansheng felt something in his heart.

Looking up, what he saw was no longer the magnificent splendor of the Tianyi teaching headquarters. What met his eyes was a few thatched huts surrounded by a fence, with some spiritual herbs planted among them, and a clear spring of unknown origin in front of the fence.

At this time, four extraordinary men and women were standing outside the fence with their hands down.

Inside the fence, a white-robed Daoist who was detached from the world and had an aura as vast as the starry sky was sitting cross-legged, holding a strange fruit in his palm that was shaped like a human and had facial features.

The fruit was the size of a palm, and every part of its limbs and facial features was the same as a human being, lifelike, as if a baby was sleeping.

And he could feel that the fruit contained incense and vows that he could hardly imagine!

This incense and vows were like mountains and seas. None of the city gods and underworld ghosts he had seen in his life could possess such a level of incense and vows!

"You..."

Liansheng stopped in front of the fence, wanting to ask.

"This 'Cao Huan Dan' is a strange fruit ranked in the top ten of the list of spiritual materials and exotic treasures in the world. It is said that it is one of the few strange objects that can be used to entrust the primordial spirit, and this 'Cao Huan Dan' also contains all the incense and vows of the Tianyi teaching for a hundred years,"

"Moreover, it has been washed, cultivated, and tempered by the Tianyi Daoren day after day for a hundred years..."

An Qisheng slowly raised his eyebrows and looked at Liansheng outside the fence:

"Tell me, what is the value of this fruit?"

As the words echoed, Ru Daoren, Bai Lian Daoren, Huang Qing'er, and others couldn't help but raise their heads, their eyes revealing an undisguised look of greed.

The 'Cao Huan Dan,' also known as the 'Human God Fruit,' is said to be a top-level spiritual fruit that can nourish the soul and nurture the primordial spirit.

Its temptation to those below the primordial spirit stage is self-evident.

What's more, this 'Cao Huan Dan' has been nurtured by the Tianyi Daoren for a hundred years, and its value is simply indescribable.

Liansheng took a deep look at it, but there was not much greed in his eyes, and he answered calmly:

"Immeasurable!"

Whoosh~

Before the words fell, a stream of light flashed.

Liansheng subconsciously raised his hand to catch the fruit, and heard a calm and casual voice:

"It's yours!"

"Real Person?"

Liansheng's heart was moved: "May I ask, Real Person, why are you giving me such a precious thing? What do you want me to do?"

Whoosh~

An Qisheng placed his hands flat on his knees, his eyes clear and distant:

"Deify!"
