My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 1238 Raid

In this process, Ling Xue not only improved her cultivation and strength, but also learned how to use spiritual energy to cook more delicious food.

Finally one day when Zhou Xing felt that he had completed all his missions, he chose to leave this world to pursue a higher realm. Ling Xue inherited his will and became a new generation of immortal leader, leading the entire immortal world to a more glorious future.

After a long journey and search, Zhou Xing finally found an ancient tree that grew the Thousand Flavor Dragon and Phoenix Fruit. This ancient tree was lush and full of fruits, each of which exuded an alluring fragrance. Zhou Xing excitedly walked forward and prepared to pick these precious fruits.

However, at this moment, a strong aura suddenly attacked. Zhou Xing turned around alertly, and saw a huge phoenix with thousands of feathers falling from the sky, blocking him. The phoenix was burning with flames, and its eyes revealed an inviolable majesty.

Zhou Xing was terrified by the sudden appearance of the Thousand Feathered Phoenix, but he remained calm on the surface. He knew that running away at this moment would only anger the beast, and only by responding calmly could he resolve the crisis.

Just as Zhou Xing was thinking about countermeasures, a figure suddenly appeared beside him. It was Ling Xue, another cultivator in the Haoqing Sect and also Zhou Xing's good friend. There was a strange light flashing in her eyes, as if she was hiding some secret.

"Be careful!" Ling Xue shouted and pulled Zhou Xing away. At the same time, a powerful force burst out from her body, competing with the breath of the Thousand Feather Phoenix. Zhou Xing looked at Ling Xue in surprise, not understanding why she suddenly appeared here, and even more confused about why she had such a powerful force.

At the critical moment, the Phoenix blood in Ling Xue's body suddenly awakened. A dazzling light emerged around her body, as if she had transformed into a real Phoenix.

The atmosphere on the training ground was tense and serious. Zhou Xing clenched his fists and stared at Ling Xue opposite him with a firm gaze. He knew that this competition was not only a test of his martial arts, but also a challenge to his will and wisdom. Ling Xue moved her feet lightly, as if she had no weight. She waved her fingers lightly, and a transparent sword shadow condensed in the air and pointed at Zhou Xing.

"Are you ready?" Ling Xue's voice was calm and cool.

"I'm ready!" Zhou Xing responded, and then assumed a fighting stance.

The battle started immediately. Zhou Xing, relying on his years of practice experience and agility, engaged in a fierce battle with Ling Xue. Each attack was accompanied by the collision of energy and the shining of light. The two figures moved quickly in the field, interlacing like phantoms. Although Zhou Xing tried his best, he still couldn't touch Ling Xue at all, and was almost hit by the opponent's attack many times.

After several rounds of fighting, Zhou Xing gradually felt exhausted and his breathing became heavy. At this moment, Ling Xue suddenly stopped attacking and retracted the sword in her hand. She walked in front of Zhou Xing and said lightly: "Your skills are good, but you lack sufficient strength and control."

Although Zhou Xing felt a little disappointed, he also understood that what Ling Xue said was true. He bowed respectfully and said, "Please give me your advice."

Ling Xue nodded, and then began to instruct Zhou Xing on how to better use his inner strength and spiritual power. In the next few days, Zhou Xing followed Ling Xue to learn many unprecedented skills and knowledge, and his strength was improved unknowingly. However, he also realized that the world was much more complicated than he had imagined, and there was a deeper meaning behind every victory.

As time went by, Zhou Xing gradually adapted to this new world full of magic. His progress was not only reflected in his martial arts, but also in his deeper understanding of this world. One night, when the moonlight filled the earth, Zhou Xing sat under an ancient tree and meditated. At this moment, Ling Xue appeared beside him silently.

"What are you thinking about?" Ling Xue asked softly.

Zhou Xing looked up at this powerful opponent and mentor and replied, "I'm missing home."

After arriving at Haoqing Sect, Zhou Xing began the long brewing process. He combined the Qianwei Dragon and Phoenix Fruit with other rare materials, and after 49 days of careful care, he finally brewed a bottle of crystal clear and fragrant peerless spiritual wine.

This bottle of spiritual wine not only has an attractive color, but also contains powerful vitality and spiritual power. Just one drop can make people feel refreshed and energetic; if you drink the whole bottle, it can cleanse your marrow and bones and prolong your life. Zhou Xing named it "Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens", implying its beautiful vision of rebirth like a phoenix nirvana.

After the news spread, countless practitioners came here hoping to see the "Phoenix Dancing in the Nine Heavens". Zhou Xing also became famous and became one of the most sought-after figures in the Kyushu Continent. But he did not become complacent, but instead focused more on researching and innovating more winemaking techniques. Because he knew that a true master is always on the road.

Haoqing Sect, a secluded sect of cultivators, is famous for its spirit wine in the fairy world. Zhou Xing, as the master of spirit wine brewing in the sect, has unparalleled skills. Every drop of the wine he brews contains the essence of heaven and earth, which can help people practice and prolong their lives. However, he has always had a higher pursuit in his heart - to find the legendary Thousand Flavors Dragon and Phoenix Fruit, so as to brew an unprecedented peerless spirit wine.

The Thousand Flavors Dragon and Phoenix Fruit grows in an ancient secret realm and ripens once every thousand years. Its fruit combines the might of a dragon and the auspiciousness of a phoenix, making it a supreme treasure for making wine. For this mysterious fruit, Zhou Xing did not hesitate to go deep into the dangerous place and stepped into the secret realm forgotten by the world. In the depths of the dense forest, ancient trees are towering and vines are entangled, creating a mysterious scene. Zhou Xing walked through the forest lightly, taking every step carefully, for fear of disturbing this ancient tranquility. Finally, in a quiet valley, he saw the legendary Thousand Flavors Dragon and Phoenix Fruit Tree, which was full of crystal clear fruits and exuded an alluring aroma.

Just as Zhou Xing was about to pick the fruit, a deafening cry cut through the sky, and a huge phoenix phantom appeared in front of him. It was the Thousand-Feathered Phoenix, guarding this secret realm and its treasures. Zhou Xing knew that in order to obtain the Thousand-Flavored Dragon and Phoenix Fruit, he had to pass this level first.

There was a vigilant light in the eyes of the Thousand-Feathered Phoenix, and its gorgeous feathers shone brightly in the sun, and every flap of its wings could cause a storm. Zhou Xing's heartbeat accelerated, he knew that the opponent in front of him was extraordinary, but he was more eager for the secret of the spirit wine.

"I am Zhou Xing from the Haoqing Sect. I have come here specially to pick the Thousand Flavor Dragon and Phoenix Fruit." Zhou Xing spoke in a deep voice, trying to communicate with the Thousand Feather Phoenix.

However, the Thousand Feather Phoenix ignored his words and only let out a sharper cry before launching an attack. As its wings flapped, countless feathers shot towards Zhou Xing like sharp arrows. Zhou Xing hurriedly circulated the Qi in his body to form a shield to resist this sudden attack.

The battle was about to start. Zhou Xing, with his superb martial arts and flexible body movements, started a fierce contest with Qianyu Fenghuang. His swordsmanship was as coherent as flowing water, and each sword was accurately aimed at the vital points of Qianyu Fenghuang, while Qianyu Fenghuang fought back with its powerful strength and speed. The duel between the two seemed like a dance of life and death.

As time went by, Zhou Xing gradually felt exhausted, and the Thousand Feather Phoenix seemed to have sensed his fatigue and attacked more fiercely. Just when Zhou Xing was about to collapse, a strange power awakened in his body. It was the power of the Phoenix that had been dormant in Ling Xue's blood for a long time.

In an inconspicuous corner of the Xiuxian world, there is a mutton noodle restaurant called "Lingyang Restaurant". It is located in a valley full of flowers, surrounded by lush bamboo forests and gurgling streams, as if isolated from the world. Although this small restaurant is inconspicuous, it is a well-known food place, especially the bowls of steaming and fragrant mutton noodles, which attract countless Xiuxian practitioners.

Zhou Xing, the seemingly ordinary owner of a mutton noodle restaurant, is actually a hidden leader of a secluded immortal cultivation sect. His true identity is kept strictly confidential and only known to very few people. Zhou Xing is not only highly skilled in cultivation, but also good at cooking with spiritual energy, which makes his mutton noodles not only delicious, but also contains rich spiritual energy, which has unspeakable benefits for immortal cultivators.

Whenever night falls, the Lingyang Pavilion is brightly lit and filled with laughter. Ling Xue, a female monk dressed in white with an extraordinary temperament, always appears in the pavilion on time. She is not only a frequent visitor of Zhou Xing, but also his confidant. In addition to tasting food, the two often exchange their cultivation experiences, and their tacit understanding is self-evident. However, behind all this, there is a shocking secret hidden - Zhou Xing's true identity is about to be exposed due to an accident.

As time went by, Ling Xue had more and more doubts about Zhou Xing's identity. She noticed that although Zhou Xing always greeted every customer with a gentle smile, there was often a sharp light flashing in the depths of his eyes, as if he could see through people's hearts. In addition, he always seemed to be at ease when handling matters in the store, and he never panicked even at the busiest times.

Once, when a hot-tempered cultivator got angry because he had been waiting for too long, Zhou Xing calmed him down with just a few gentle words and cleverly changed the subject, quickly restoring the whole scene to calm. This scene deeply shocked Ling Xue, and she began to suspect that Zhou Xing was not an ordinary person.

What makes Ling Xue even more curious is that Zhou Xing always mysteriously disappears for a while on full moon nights. According to other store employees, he always stays indoors during this time, and even his closest friends are not allowed to disturb him. All signs indicate that Zhou Xing seems to be hiding a secret that no one knows about.

Finally one day, Ling Xue made up her mind to uncover the mystery. She used her status as a senior sister and her resources to secretly investigate Zhou Xing's past. After some efforts, she found some shocking clues, which led her to an incredible direction - Zhou Xing turned out to be the boss of the legendary hidden immortal sect! This news hit Ling Xue's heart like a bolt from the blue, and she realized that her life was about to change dramatically.

On a sunny afternoon, Lingyang Pavilion welcomed several special guests. They were dressed in uniform black robes, with exquisite jade pendants hanging around their waists. They were obviously from a prominent immortal cultivation family. The arrival of these people broke the tranquility of Lingyang Pavilion. They kept looking around the store, as if they were looking for something important.

Zhou Xing noticed something was wrong, and he observed the group's behavior calmly. At this moment, a young disciple accidentally knocked over a teacup on the table, and the hot tea splashed onto the hand of one of the black-robed men. The man immediately became furious, and with a wave of his hand, a powerful spiritual power wave attacked the disciple. Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Zhou Xing flashed and easily blocked the attack, and calmed the emotions of both sides.

Ling Xue saw this scene, and she was more convinced that Zhou Xing was extraordinary. After closing the store that night, she quietly followed Zhou Xing into the backyard. Under the moonlight, Zhou Xing was standing under an ancient sycamore tree, making seals with his hands and muttering something. Suddenly, a faint light filled the air, and the entire backyard seemed to be shrouded by an invisible force. Ling Xue held her breath and witnessed a miraculous scene - a dazzling halo slowly rose behind Zhou Xing, and his body seemed to merge with the world. At this moment, Ling Xue finally understood that Zhou Xing was not just an ordinary mutton noodle restaurant owner, he was also a hidden master with powerful cultivation. And this unexpected discovery also made her think about her future path in a new way.

Since that unexpected discovery, Ling Xue's mood has been restless for a long time. She knows that she can no longer simply enjoy food and exchange cultivation experiences as before. Zhou Xing's true identity is like a huge rock pressing on her heart, making her feel excited and uneasy. After careful consideration, Ling Xue decided to find a suitable time to talk to President Zhou.

One evening, when the last batch of customers left Lingyang Hall, Ling Xue plucked up the courage to walk up to Zhou Xing who was clearing the table. "Master," she called softly, "I have something to say to you." Zhou Xing stopped what he was doing, looked up at her, and a hint of subtle surprise flashed in his eyes. "Go ahead, what's the matter?" he asked gently.

Ling Xue took a deep breath and told Zhou Xing all her doubts and discoveries. After listening, Zhou Xing was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Since you already know my identity, there are some things I should tell you." In the following time, Zhou Xing told Ling Xue about his responsibilities and mission as a leader of a hidden immortal sect, and why he chose to live in seclusion here and open a mutton noodle restaurant. It turned out that all this was to find a destined person and pass on the sect's unique skills.

After hearing Zhou Xing's words, Ling Xue was shocked and moved. She didn't expect that she would be lucky enough to be one of the candidates. From that day on, Zhou Xing began to formally guide Ling Xue to practice more advanced techniques, and gradually handed over some important affairs of the sect to her. As time went by, the relationship between the two became closer and closer, not just a simple master and apprentice relationship.
