Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 150

[Chapter 149 Negotiation (Congratulations to the Silver Alliance!)]

“What… is going on?”

It is still in the Southern Wilderness’ world of immortal cultivation, in an underground cave.

Fang Xi sat cross-legged.

However, his spiritual consciousness could see another perspective through the bronze mirror.

The water is flowing and the waves are sparkling…

Pebbles are scattered all over the bottom of the stream, with water plants growing everywhere and fish and shrimps swimming around…

Looking around further, Fang Xi found that his spiritual awareness was not enough.

“After my spiritual sense was established, it was able to detect an area of 50 meters in radius. How come it is only 5 meters here?”

He was somewhat confused.

It seemed as if he was traveling across the world, or in other words, the connection between the two worlds was consumed, and his consciousness over there was terribly suppressed!

“Wait, who is ‘I’ then?”

Fang Xi scanned himself with his spiritual sense and saw half of a bronze mirror-like object lying quietly at the bottom of the river.

The edges of this bronze mirror fragment have jagged cracks, and there are vague traces of seal carving on the surface. The lines are rough, as if they were formed naturally.

“This fragment seems to be a part of the bronze mirror in my sea of consciousness?”

“I am spreading my spiritual awareness around it with it as the center?”

“Oops… I only have spiritual consciousness, I can’t move!”

“How can I retrieve this fragment?”

…

Fang Xi felt a headache.

Moreover, if you keep your spiritual consciousness connected all the time, you will gradually feel tired.

So he withdrew his spiritual consciousness and severed the connection with the bronze mirror fragments of that world.

“It is known… I can use the bronze mirror to establish a connection with the fragments of another world, and use that fragment as an anchor to release my spiritual consciousness…”

“Beyond that, it seems like there’s really no way to do anything else.”

“Of course I know that the spirit treasure’s instinct is to let me reassemble the fragments, but how can I gather them all… I can’t even get through it…”

Fang Xi was speechless for a while.

He also hoped that when he opened the door, he would be on the other side of the fairyland, where he would have no shortage of skills, treasures, and elixirs, and he would be able to easily become a god and ascend to heaven!

That’s the result?

“This golden finger is broken!”

“Forget it, I’d better go back and work honestly for 50 years!”

…

Bai Ze Fairy City.

Outer city.

Mingqing Pavilion.

The pavilion was elegantly decorated, and when Fang Xi entered, musicians were playing.

“Senior, you…”

A beautiful middle-aged woman came forward. When she saw Fang Xi, a trace of suspicion flashed across her eyes: “Is your last name Fang?”

“That’s right. Fellow Daoist Lu Zhi has already booked a private room, right? Lead the way…”

Fang Xi nodded and glanced at the beautiful middle-aged woman again: “Fairy Yunmeng, it’s been many years since we last met… It was thanks to the introduction of Daoist Fellow Chen Ping that we were able to meet.”

“yes……”

This beautiful woman was none other than Fairy Yunmeng. When she mentioned Chen Ping, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across her face.

She thought about how short-sighted she and others were in the past and actually kicked out the current foundation-building cultivator for the sake of the so-called distinguished guest. She couldn’t help feeling uneasy, fearing that the other party would blame her.

After all, she had failed in her attempt to establish her foundation in her early years, and was later arranged to take over the family business. She had long since been gradually eliminated from the core of the family.

With a creak,
the door of the private room opened, and several people were sitting inside.

Lu Zhi was there too, and next to her was a white-haired, skinny old man with age spots all over his face. One could vaguely tell what Chen Ping looked like back then.

In addition, there was a big man in purple robe with a broad forehead, big eyes, and a mighty appearance. His cultivation was around the initial stage of foundation building.

The purple-robed man smiled when he saw Fang Xi: “Fellow Daoist Fang Xi? I am Xu Shuolei, the Grand Elder of the Qingye Xu Clan.”

“Hello, Fellow Daoist Xu!”

Fang Xi sat down and saw Fairy Yunmeng wanted to leave, so he said, “This matter is also related to you, why don’t you stay and talk.”

Fairy Yunmeng’s body trembled immediately, and she looked at her ancestor with a look for help.

Unexpectedly, Xu Shuolei turned a blind eye and said, “In that case, Yun’er, you stay and make tea…”

“yes!”

Fairy Yunmeng knelt in front of the tea table, bowed, and then began to make tea with her bare hands…

The light fragrance of tea wafts in the air…

Fang Xi first looked at Fairy Yunmeng, then at Lu Zhi, and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

It’s obvious that Fairy Yunmeng has taken some elixirs like the Anti-aging Pill. She’s already in her fifties or sixties but still looks beautiful.

In comparison, Lu Zhi must have suffered a lot over the years.

Of course, the one who suffered even more was Chen Ping who was standing next to him. When this old man saw Fang Xi, he was so choked up that he couldn’t speak, and his eyes were filled with tears.

Feeling this person’s vitality like a candle in the wind, Fang Xi sighed.

This sigh broke the silent atmosphere in the box.

Xu Shuolei spoke up, righteously: “My Qingye Xu family never kidnaps people. Fellow Daoist Chen Ping was warmly invited by my Xu family to serve as a guest of my Xu family. We have never imprisoned or forced anyone… Fellow Daoist Chen, don’t you agree?”

Chen Ping was startled and nodded quickly: “Yes, yes…”

Fang Xi smiled slightly: “It turned out to be a misunderstanding, that’s all good, but Chen Ping is my childhood friend, now I want to spend my old age in Bai Ze Xiancheng, I wonder if the Xu family?”

“Of course, our Xu family supports us! Fellow Daoist Chen Ping has made great contributions and has made outstanding contributions. We should give him a house in the outer city for his retirement!”

Xu Shuolei patted his chest and made the promise.

“In that case, I have nothing more to say… But what about Fairy Yunmeng?”

Fang Xi asked tentatively.

Xu Shuolei raised his eyebrows: “Yun’er has offended me before. I apologize on her behalf. The family will punish her severely later and order her to compensate Chen Keqing with a sum of spirit stones…”

“Fellow Daoist Xu is fair and strict in his conduct. I admire him…”

Fang Xi had nothing to say, so he clasped his fists, stood up with Lu Zhi and Chen Ping, and left.

…

After the three people left, Fairy Yunmeng looked at the ancestor anxiously: “Grandfather…”

“Yun’er, you want to ask why the ancestor let Chen Ping go?”

Xu Shuolei sipped his tea with a smile: “This person has reached the end of his usefulness. He will only live for a month. Is he going to die in my house and prove my family’s reputation of abuse?”

Fairy Yunmeng suddenly realized: “So the ancestor did this for fame?”

“We are a righteous family after all, so we have to maintain some dignity… Besides, we have already planted a trick on this person, so he cannot leave Bai Ze Immortal City or damage our family’s reputation. He lives in my house, which means he is still under my surveillance, just in a new place. The talisman inheritance is also left behind… Now there is a guest foundation-building official from Bai Ze Immortal City who is here to plead for him, so let’s give him some face.”

“Besides, this person’s Taoist partner Lu Zhi has always been under our control. Even before his death, he would not dare to cause any trouble… unless he ignores his family!”

The foundation-building cultivators are all ancestors of a region and high-ranking members of a powerful force. They will not fight and kill unless necessary.

After all, you only have 200 years to live, so why bother trying so hard? The most important thing is to enjoy life.

Xu Shuolei shook his head, and said with some regret: “It’s a pity that this person has been in my family for many years, but he has not produced any descendants with spiritual roots and spiritual bodies… It seems that a forced melon is not sweet after all.”

After hearing this, Fairy Yunmeng’s face turned slightly red.

…

On the street.

Lu Zhi supported Chen Ping, and they walked slowly forward like two ordinary old couple in the countryside.

Chen Ping’s eyes kept darting around, looking at the scenery around him, as if he could never see enough.

“Fang Daoyou… no, Senior Fang… I cannot thank you enough for your kindness!”

Before arriving at the residence, he suddenly and solemnly bowed to Fang Xi.

“We are friends after all, it’s just a small favor…”

Fang Xi hurriedly supported him, and then a blood-red jade slip was stuffed into his hand.

He put it away calmly, watched Chen Ping and Lu Zhi enter the house, then turned and left.

…

“I will never forget your kindness, my friend. I will give you my whole life’s hard work…”

“I hope you can appreciate this talisman inheritance. It may be passed on to Lu Zhi’s descendants in the future…”

Yanliu Lane, building 87.

Fang Xi took the blood-colored jade slip and saw that the beginning was Chen Ping’s message.

“The offspring left for Lu Zhi? Aren’t they the children of Master Zong Fu?”

“Back then, Master Zong Fu was very likely used as blood sacrifice material to activate the blood talisman spirit body…”

He murmured to himself, what was Chen Ping’s move? Guilt and compensation?

“Human nature… is such a complicated thing.”

Fang Xi continued reading and discovered that the talisman inheritance in the jade slip was of the second-grade upper grade!

There is even a hint of reaching the third level!

“The Blood Talisman Spirit Body is worthy of the Talisman Dao’s favor…”

“Unfortunately, my attainment in talismans is only of the middle grade of the first rank…Do I have to draw talismans to earn spirit stones in the future?”

Fang Xi thought about it and decided to put the jade slip away.

At this time, Fairy Tengluo walked in wearing a translucent palace skirt: “Senior…”

Her voice was tender and gentle.

“Fairy Tengluo…thank you for your help these past few days. These spirit stones will be your reward.”

Fang Xi’s face was cold as he threw out a few spirit stones.

Fairy Tengluo’s expression changed, and her pretty face turned pale: “Senior?”

“Just go!”

Fang Xi waved his hand and didn’t want to say more.

Among ordinary people, the more prominent and powerful the family is, the more important the receptionists and doormen are. They are often performed by trusted confidants. If used well, interpersonal relationships can be handled with ease, but if used poorly, enemies will be made everywhere.

“Senior, what mistake have I made?” Fairy Tengluo was shocked and bowed down.

“The hairpin on your head is nice. Is it a new magic weapon?”

Fang Xi shook his head: “I just met with Fellow Daoist Yuan, and before I agreed, the news was all over the place… Just based on these two things, I would be right to kill you!”

At the end, his voice was stern and his murderous aura frightened Fairy Tengluo so much that she stepped back repeatedly: “I was wrong, I was wrong…”

“Why don’t you get out of here?!”

Fang Xi shouted loudly, causing Tengluo Fairy to crawl away, looking extremely embarrassed.

He looked at the back of Fairy Tengluo and touched his chin, looking thoughtful.

In fact, he had long known that this woman was vain.

Before, he was just taking advantage of the situation to build up momentum for himself and prepare for the rescue of Chen Ping.

Nowadays, it is of little use.

Even if you really want to take a concubine, you cannot choose a woman like this who has no tact and does not know the importance of things.

“senior……”

At this time, the lovely Jin Ling walked in: “Fellow Daoist Tengluo seems to be frightened…”

“Fellow Daoist Jin Ling…”

Fang Xi’s expression softened, and he sighed again: “These past few days, it’s all thanks to you…”

This girl is quite good. She is very polite in welcoming and seeing off guests, which is exactly what Fang Xi likes.
