Longevity, starting from raising chickens

"Don't worry, that fish is not you."

Above the basket, the huge face across the "long bridge" turned around. There was still a hint of nervousness on his face, but he lowered his voice and spoke in a low voice.

Li Yuehua, the Blood Sea Mother who once dominated Zhongshengzhou, now really looked like an extremely humble maid.

Wang Ba wanted to ask, but at the moment he was like he had no mouth and couldn't utter a word. He didn't even know what state he was in right now.

But after Li Yuehua said this, the huge face quickly moved away.

Wang Ba guessed that the other party must have put down the bamboo basket, but he was surprised and suspicious:
"What on earth is this place? Why is Master's Wife here? And she has turned into a maid... Who can let a Void Refining Cultivator serve as a maid?"

Even a Mahayana cultivator like Master Gai would never treat a Void Refiner so disrespectfully.

He soon recalled more:

"Oh, right? And what about the host and the banquet she just mentioned... the True Spirit Fish... She also said that my realm was not low when I was alive... So, this should be the world of the dead?"

"The underworld? The netherworld?"

Wang Ba's mind was filled with confusion and doubts.

This doubt arises from not only where this place is, but also the identity, realm, and cultivation level of the master of the master's wife...

"Remember not to run around... Oh, and when someone comes behind you, don't move your eyes. Remember this!"

Li Yuehua's voice of admonition could be heard faintly from above.

Wang Ba was slightly stunned, but didn't quite understand what she meant.

But in just the next moment, he understood.

wow——

Countless streams of water flowed in from the bottom of the bamboo basket. Soon, the bamboo basket tilted slightly, and the "long bridge" above it tilted with it, and more water splashed in from the mouth of the bamboo basket.

At the same time as these water flows in, he saw some dust particles representing true spirits also pouring in, as well as a colorful fish.

The fish was so huge that in his eyes it looked like a scaly dragon falling down through the waves, truly astonishing.

While feeling the fish, he could also feel the countless wonderful past events in the fish's mind:

He saw the world, saw a young boy, saw the lives of countless people in this world, and also saw the boy's experience of growing up.

It was as if in this instant, he had experienced a person's entire life, and could even feel every bit of the other person's practice, until he fought with a powerful enemy and was defeated and died. Surprisingly, he was not unfamiliar with that powerful enemy, as it was the Buddha Lord Tianshang who seemed to be younger!

This was an extremely unique feeling. He even felt a little dazed, thinking that he was the seven-colored fish, defeated by the Buddha Lord Tianshang...

But he quickly came to his senses and was shocked:
“True spirit! This is… the true spirit of a Mahayana cultivator!”

He saw the fish falling from above, and then he felt a collision, as if the fish's body had collided with his own body. It didn't hurt, but he could sense the existence of the other party and himself.

As he was tumbling, he saw the gray sea water below the gap between the bamboo basket and the ripples on the water surface. The bamboo basket and his lively "fish eye" were vaguely reflected in the gap...

A sudden realization came to his mind:
"I am still in the origin of the bounded sea, and I have really turned into a true spirit fish... But why have I never heard of such a thing in the origin of the bounded sea?"

"Who exactly is the 'master' mentioned by the master's wife and those people?"

At this moment, he heard a voice from above:
"Don't move. This is also a chance for you."

Wang Ba was a little confused for a moment, not sure whether Li Yuehua was talking to him or to the colorful fish.

The bamboo basket swayed and was lifted out of the water again, and water flowed out.

He soon felt the bamboo basket shaking, obviously it was moving.

Not long after, there was another rise and the bamboo basket sank into the water again, slightly tilted, and a large amount of sea water and a slightly smaller, darker fish dived into the bamboo basket.

Wang Ba once again sensed the fish's experience and was slightly surprised:
"Overcoming the tribulation..."

This is also a cultivator, but his realm is not as high as the previous colorful fish. He is not a Mahayana cultivator, but a tribulation-crossing cultivator.

He also practiced all the way, but died not long ago, and his true spirit then came to the origin of the sea of ​​​​boundaries.

Wang Ba suddenly realized:

"So, as long as the realm of the True Spirit is high enough, it will be transformed into a fish in the origin of this world sea? In that case, I am afraid that I am not too eye-catching like this fish."

"But why does the banquet need a real spirit fish?"

Wang Ba was confused.

During this puzzled process, the bamboo basket turned over again and again, catching seven fish in total.

These fish were all very quiet and stayed in the bamboo basket.

Although Wang Ba can feel the experiences of these fishes, he cannot feel their current emotions and perceptions.

What surprised Wang was that Li Yuehua looked at the seven fish in the bamboo basket, but threw away a few of them in disgust. Then she spent a lot of effort and finally caught two or three fish that were bigger than the previous ones. When she had seven fish in total, she picked up the bamboo basket again.

Li Yuehua's huge face blocked the sky above. He carefully looked at the fish in the bamboo basket, and a look of joy appeared on his face:

"I'm lucky this time."

At this moment, a shout and urging voice came from the distance again:
"Yuehua, you're not well yet!"

"I'm coming!"

Li Yuehua quickly turned her head and responded towards the distance, then she picked up the bamboo basket and quickened her pace.

Wang Ba could feel the shaking of the bamboo basket and the pressure from other fish around him, and he could also hear conversations getting closer and closer in the distance.

"Hurry up, hurry up, you are the only one missing."

It seemed that it was getting closer, and the urging voice just now came again.

"Sorry to have kept Sister Cui waiting for a long time."

Li Yuehua's voice sounded extremely respectful and humble.

Wang Ba stayed in the bamboo basket, vaguely guessing something in his heart, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

He couldn't see what was outside and could only judge the current situation by the sounds outside.

But soon, he saw a slender jade hand taking over the "long bridge" above.

Then he saw a woman's face, but this face was a little unfamiliar. She also had a similar makeup as Li Yuehua, but the patterns on her face and hair were more delicate than those on Li Yuehua's.

The face glanced at the fish in the bamboo basket and quickly frowned:
"Why is there one more..."

Wang Ba's heart trembled and he quickly lowered his eyes.

At the same time, Li Yuehua's increasingly respectful voice was heard from above:

"I was worried that I couldn't meet Sister Lin's requirements, so I caught an extra one. I'm going to put one back now..."

"Alright! There's no time to waste!"

Hearing Li Yuehua's words, the woman's face above the bamboo basket raised her head, seemed a little unhappy, and scolded:
"Send these fish over first, don't delay any longer."

"Yes, Sister Cui."

Li Yuehua's voice was still respectful, without any other emotions in it.

Wang Ba's heart moved slightly, and he vaguely understood why Li Yuehua kept changing the fish.

Li Yuehua took the bamboo basket again, and the basket swayed gently. The chattering sounds from before became clearer at this moment, and even not far away, it was obvious that Li Yuehua had caught up with the team.

These chirping sounds, if the volume is not so loud, can still sound sweet.

However, at this moment, Wang Ba only felt that it was extremely noisy.

Despite this, he still heard something in the women's voices.

"Oh, sister Yuehua, the fish you caught this time is quite big. The master has to praise you."

A woman said with a smile.

Li Yuehua's voice was calm, and she chuckled as she answered:

"No way, these spiritual fruits that my sister picked are so beautiful and big. Maybe the master will find a good match for you..." "Hehe, sister Yuehua is really good at talking. No wonder the master didn't despise your low realm when you were alive and gave you a chance to start over."

The woman's voice seemed unintentional, yet it also seemed to carry a hint of subtle contempt.

Then he changed the subject and complained again before Li Yuehua could speak:

"But spiritual fruits are not as popular as these true spiritual fish. Aren't today's banquet for these fish? These true spiritual fish are all big names in the sea of ​​​​boundaries. If they hadn't died and returned to their origins, we wouldn't have the opportunity to control them... But I heard that eating one is equivalent to practicing from beginning to end for a lifetime. Although we can't taste the flavor, those distinguished guests can taste it..."

"You're the only one who talks too much! Send it over quickly."

In the distance, the female official named Cui gave a light scolding. The voice was a little far from here. It was obvious that she had heard the conversation between them and was urging them on purpose.

But even though the female official surnamed Cui scolded them verbally, the maids who were chatting around them did not seem to be afraid. Instead, they all laughed.

"I know, I know!"

If the voices of the warblers were a little quieter, just listening to the sounds would be beautiful enough.

At this moment, Wang Ba felt a chill in his heart.

He finally understood why they wanted to capture these so-called true spirit fish. It was just to satisfy the "appetite" of some so-called distinguished guests.

But how rich are the practice and life experiences of Mahayana monks?
If ordinary people want to experience it from beginning to end, they will easily be overwhelmed by these memories.

These so-called distinguished guests dared to taste the Mahayana True Spirit... Could it be that they are actually beings above the Mahayana?

Thinking of this, Wang Ba felt even more horrified:
"Is this really the origin of the sea of ​​​​boundaries? If it is really the origin of the sea of ​​​​boundaries, how can there be a being above the Mahayana?"

He was inexplicably shocked and listened carefully.

However, the following conversation was just gossip and trivial matters, which did not yield much gain.

However, he was careful and thoughtful, and he was able to hear something else from what these people said.

"This place should still be in the Third Sea, but it seems to be beyond the Sea."

"And the existence that can surpass the origin of the sea of ​​​​boundaries is probably only..."

From the maids' casual chat, he could feel their awe towards their master.

He already had some guesses about the identity of this 'master'.

These speculations also surprised him, because before, he had never heard of the existence of such a person in the sea of ​​​​boundaries.

It was during this casual chat that Wang Ba waited quietly in the bamboo basket for Li Yuehua to walk along the way.

Soon it seemed that we had arrived at the place where the fish were to be processed.

Not long after, another unfamiliar face leaned over and looked carefully at the fish in the bamboo basket. He glanced at the fish in the bamboo basket, then frowned and pointed at Wang Ba:

"How did this fish become so degraded? Feed this fish to the dogs."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand towards the bamboo basket. Wang Ba's vision was instantly blocked by this hand. Then he felt his body was actually lifted up into the air, and he was shocked!
At this moment, Li Yuehua's voice suddenly came from the other side above:
"Sister Lin, Sister Cui told me to remember to release this fish. Sister Lin, why don't you take care of these fish first, and I'll take care of this one..."

Upon hearing this, the female official surnamed Lin said indifferently:
"It's okay. These fish just need to be processed a little. Those distinguished guests like fresh fish..."

There was nothing unusual in Li Yuehua's voice, and she smiled and said:
"Sister Lin, you have to let me do something. I can't help you with anything else."

"Okay, okay."

Upon hearing this, the female official named Lin smiled and let go of her hand.

Wang Ba only felt his body falling down again and hit the bamboo basket. He didn't feel any pain, but his heart was slightly relieved.

The female official named Lin did not stop, but picked up the other fish swiftly, and then threw the bamboo basket to Li Yuehua.

He ordered:
"After you're done throwing, go back to your room first. Don't come out easily unless Sister Cui calls you, lest you accidentally bump into the distinguished guest."

Li Yuehua did not dare to neglect and said quickly:

"Yes, Yuehua knows. Thank you Sister Lin for reminding me."

"Well, it's okay, you go first."

The female official named Lin seemed easy to talk to, so Li Yuehua quickly carried the bamboo basket and walked for a while at a leisurely pace.

At this moment, there was only one fish, Wang Ba, left in the bamboo basket.

Li Yuehua did not say anything until Wang Ba saw the scenery above the bamboo basket getting lower, and then heard the sound of a door closing.

There was another round of ping-pong sounds, and then there was a period of silence that seemed to him to be quite long.

Just as he was getting a little anxious waiting.

He suddenly heard Li Yuehua's low voice:

"You're still alive?"

Wang Ba was stunned.

Then, Li Yuehua's face appeared again above the bamboo basket.

But compared to her cautiousness outside, Li Yuehua's face now had a bit more complexity. Looking at Wang Ba, she seemed to see her former self and whispered:
"It seems that you should be alive... You are different from those people whose true spirits returned to the origin of the sea after falling. They are truly dead, but you should have only fallen here temporarily."

Wang Ba opened his mouth, wanting to tell Li Yuehua what had happened to him, but he still couldn't say anything.

Li Yuehua seemed to have guessed what he was going to do. She stretched out her finger, put it to her lips, and made a soft "hush" sound, as if she was somewhat helpless.

"I know you want to talk, but now you are just a true spirit that has returned to its origin and can't say anything, just like... I was back then. Without the help of the master of this place or a special method to help you transform, you will always be like this, unless you can return to the sea of ​​boundaries."

Wang Ba was shocked.

He was a little confused as to why the other party appeared here.

Li Yuehua had no intention of hiding anything, and seemed to want to find someone to talk to as well. Her eyes were a little absent-minded, and she whispered:

"When I left the Xiaocang Realm, I was ready to ascend to heaven. However, I didn't expect that at the critical moment, I was ambushed by the Realm Eater and my physical body was destroyed. However, I had already successfully survived the ascension thunder tribulation... By accident, I became a true spirit ascending."

"In the end, I became a fish fry in the origin of this world sea, just like you. But I was lucky. The origin of this world sea is not very big, and there are even fewer living true spirits. I was caught by the owner of this place due to the interaction of qi. He saw that my life span was not over yet, so he helped me transform, and I became what I am now."

Wang Ba was shocked when he heard Li Yuehua's words.

It turned out to be the reason!

He suddenly thought of Xuan Yuanzi.

According to Xuan Yuanzi, he was also like this at the beginning. After his death, he shed his true body of the black tortoise and ascended as his true spirit. Then he came to the origin of the boundary sea. As a result, he met the Lord of the Quiet Cave who was cruising in the origin and was taken back by him.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel excited:
"So, if I can meet the Lord of the Quiet Cave while I am in the origin of the sea, I will have a chance to leave here with him?"

But then he became confused again.

The way he came to the origin of the sea of ​​​​boundaries seemed a little strange.

Li Yuehua and Xuan Yuanzi both came here with their true spirits, but he was knocked out of his true spirit by the Buddha Lord Tianshang, and then came here.

There is no similarity between the two.

But before he could think about it, he heard Li Yuehua say:
"I know you must be very curious about the identity of the 'master'. I can't tell you, but I can remind you that you have to guess for yourself."

She paused, then lowered her voice:
"The third world sea is the most respected."

Hearing this, Wang Ba was shocked. He already had some guesses, and now after hearing this, he no longer had any doubts in his heart.

What other identity can make the Third Sea surrender?

Of course...

"The 'master' that Master-wife mentioned, could it be the master of the Third World Sea?"

Once this hypothesis is confirmed, the others will follow naturally.

"The master of the Third Sea Realm cannot be just a Mahayana. In other words, he should also be an immortal. The guests invited by the immortals are naturally..."

"The Immortal of the Second Sea!" (End of this chapter)
