Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind
Chapter 311 Raising Gu
Chapter 311 Raising Gu
You Su opened his eyes half asleep. Tianxing Island was located in the South China Sea and the sunlight was a bit dazzling.
He quickly stood up, squinted and rubbed his eyes, and subconsciously used his spiritual sense to check the surroundings, but felt that there was something strange about this island. It seemed that due to the limitations of the formation, the range that his spiritual sense could detect was extremely limited.
The strength of his spiritual awareness was far beyond that of people in the same realm. Normally, any movement within a radius of about 20 meters could not escape his focused investigation, but at this moment, it was cut in half.
"Senior Sister Sihan? Senior Sister Zixun?"
You Su called out softly, but no one responded.
He felt even more awe-inspiring in his heart. He had already made an appointment with two senior sisters who had reached the middle level of Condensation Water to travel together on the island so that they could take care of each other.
Before entering the island, the Third Elder also openly and secretly hoped that he could take care of the two sisters. Although they were talented, they were flowers in a greenhouse after all and had never really seen the cruelty of the world of immortal cultivation.
Of course You Su readily agreed. In fact, after the three of them entered the island, they joined up with the large group of cultivators from Xuan Xiao Sect and entered the island together. This was also the order given by the second elder of Xuan Xiao Sect during the mobilization ceremony.
In fact, there are many forces as united as the Xuanxiao Sect. Although only one person can seize the inheritance in the end, there is no force that would not want that person to be in its own camp.
You Su called out a few more times, but still no one answered.
Since there was no one around, You Su did not hesitate. He opened his dark eyes and looked around.
The vegetation on Tianxing Island is extremely lush, with exotic flowers and plants competing for beauty, and even birds singing and butterflies dancing, giving it a vibrant look.
But this beautiful scene made You Su feel even more solemn, because he recalled that he had only taken a few steps onto the shore before he lost consciousness. How could he not see the sea at a glance?
Now, he has obviously left the scope of the outer island!
"It's that magic circle..."
You Su suddenly remembered the bright light before he lost consciousness. Everyone thought it was a formation that blocked the outside world's view, but they did not expect it was also a teleportation formation.
Judging from the current situation where everyone is separated, it is obvious that this teleportation array randomly teleports all people entering the island to somewhere on the island.
You Su was on guard and deep in thought.
He recalled the message from the chief elder before he entered the island, and felt a little worried after realizing it belatedly.
Even when the Chief Elder was facing evil spirits at the level of evil spirits, he would not admonish him so solemnly, because the Chief Elder was different from the Third Elder who was worried about him. The Chief Elder had full confidence in him, as if he completely believed that he could complete the task every time.
Could it be that in the eyes of the chief elder, the danger of this island is even more terrifying than evil spirits?
Yes...the existence of the random teleportation array was not mentioned in the letter that the chief elder sent to him separately, which means that Immortal Zhengyang deliberately concealed it!
He deliberately broke up the pre-war alliance between these forces to make everyone as isolated and helpless as possible!
Furthermore, spiritual awareness is the most important ability for cultivators to prevent danger, but he specifically set up a formation to hinder spiritual awareness... There may even be more unknown restrictions or mechanisms on the island. Is he deliberately trying to create an atmosphere where everyone is in danger?
You Su frowned, feeling that all these actions were invisibly aggravating the severity of the inheritance battle. They were like poisonous insects selected by the True Immortal Zhengyang from all over the five continents and then thrown into a poison.
From this perspective, if one wants to obtain the final inheritance, luck, strength, cunningness, and wisdom are all indispensable.
Of course, only such outstanding people are qualified to become the only successor to the Tianxing Realm in the world.
Thinking of this, You Su also felt a sense of heroism in his heart.
He never liked to compete with others, but he was determined to obtain this inheritance.
But what exactly is this inheritance? And where can I find it?
The only thing I can do now is to walk and watch, and it would be best if I can find and reunite with my two senior sisters.
You Su pressed the hilt of the Mosong sword, restrained the dark color in his pupils, and still used his spiritual sense to clear the way.
He couldn't keep his eyes dark all the time, but in order to be able to open them at any time just in case, he put on the sunglasses given to him by Qianhua Puppy.
You Su walked as he pleased, but unforeseen dangers might be hiding in the dark, so he walked slowly.
They walked like this for a long time, and suddenly, his nose moved slightly and he smelled a special fragrance.
He quickly followed the scent and quietly opened his dark eyes. He saw clusters of fairy grass emitting colorful fluorescence among the haystacks that were particularly eye-catching.
You Su was very familiar with the chapter on the Hehuan Art that introduced the treasures of heaven and earth. He often went to Bihua Peak and was inevitably influenced by it. He recognized at a glance that this was an extremely rare floating light grass.
This floating light grass cannot be eaten directly, but it can be combined with the other three common medicinal materials to refine the floating light pill. Although the refining process of this floating light pill is simple, its effect is extraordinary. It is said that it can directly improve people's affinity with the way of magic.
Because of its miraculous effect, the already rare Floating Light Grass was picked up in large quantities and has become extinct in the Five Continents. The Third Elder has always wanted to save this species of fairy grass, but he has no way to find its roots. He did not expect that there is still Floating Light Grass in this overseas fairy island.
You Su immediately came up with the idea of picking some of them and giving them to the Third Elder. The clumps of floating light grass were growing lushly, and it would not be considered a destruction if he only took one.
You Su moved very carefully, scooping up the soil and roots together, and put it into his Qiankun bag. Then he looked satisfied and whispered to himself:
"It seems that what the chief elder said in the letter is indeed true. There are opportunities everywhere on Tianxing Island."
As the place where the True Immortal Zhengyang achieved his breakthrough, Tianxing Island is truly a fertile fairy island overseas.
He gathered the 360 monks he selected here, and of course it was impossible for him to not give any reward to the 359 people except the one who inherited the legacy.
The island is home to all kinds of rare treasures that have become extinct or have never appeared in the five continents. Anyone who comes to the island can take whatever they want of these treasures. This is the gift given by the True Immortal Zhengyang to those who come to the island.
Suddenly, You Su noticed something strange and immediately pulled out a small section of his sword, ready for battle.
Only the rustling sound of stepping on grass was heard, and You Su frowned. The footsteps were not loud, but there was no sign of concealment, which showed that the person who came was frank and did not seem to have any hostility.
"Brother, is that the floating light grass next to you?"
The man had an ordinary appearance, was a little dark, and not very tall. He was dressed in a yellowish Taoist robe and looked unremarkable.
He deliberately stopped five meters away from You Su in order to maintain a relatively safe distance.
However, You Su knew that the other party's footsteps were powerful and each step was steady. It was obvious that he was a person with a strong foundation. You Su guessed that the other party was at least at the upper level of Condensation Water.
"good."
You Su's answer was brief and powerful. As this was the first person he met after entering the island, he didn't want to appear too distant.
“It’s actually true!”
The man was very excited and was about to take a step forward, but You Su cautiously drew his sword.
The man caught a glimpse of the black light on the sword and quickly stopped again: "Don't be nervous, brother. I am Huang Xi, a disciple of the Huangsha Sect in the Western Wasteland Continent. It is a legitimate and prestigious sect. I have no ill will towards you."
As he spoke, he took out a bright yellow token from his arms, on which was written the word "Huangsha".
Before coming here, You Su had of course learned a lot about the various forces in the Five Continents under the guidance of the Third Elder, and knew that the Huangsha Sect was a second-rate sect at the bottom of the Western Wasteland Continent. However, he only knew some notable names, and had never heard of Huang Xi.
"Do you want to get some grass?" You Su asked.
Huang Xi nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of courtesy, "This floating light grass is extremely useful to my third junior brother. If you like it, can you give me one? I can exchange it with other treasures, and I will never let you suffer a loss."
As he said this, he pretended to open the large sack on his back.
"No need, I've got what I need, take it if you want."
You Su looked at the other party's simple appearance, who didn't even have a magic storage weapon and had to carry a sack to enter the secret realm, and didn't want to take advantage of the poor. So he stepped back a few steps and let the floating grass out. Huang Xi thanked him repeatedly, bent over and picked two floating grasses, with a very respectful attitude.
You Su was curious, "I told you this is ownerless. If it's useful to you, why don't you dig it up?"
"One plant is enough for my third junior brother. Any more would be a waste."
Huang Xi raised his head, looking at You Su's luxurious and restrained outfit, as well as the strange magical weapon in front of him whose function he did not know, and said humbly:
"Looking at your demeanor and attire, you must be from Zhongyuanzhou, right? Our Xihuangzhou has the word 'wild' in its name, so we can't compare to Zhongyuanzhou's vast land and abundant resources, so we Xihuang people cherish our resources very much. If there are three fruits on a tree, we only pick two, and never pick all three."
You Su thought that this man was very simple and touching, and asked again:
"Why did you dig two when one is enough?"
"To be honest, Huang has some selfish motives. I'm giving this one to my third junior brother to use in refining pills, and I'm actually going to sell the other one to make some money to help the sect."
Floating Light Grass is a priceless treasure in the outside world, so of course it can be sold at a high price.
You Su did not comment on this, and asked curiously: "Does your Huangsha Sect need a disciple from you to subsidize it?"
"My sect is located in the west of Xihuangzhou, the most desolate area, and can barely be self-sufficient. I don't know how I was noticed by the True Immortal Zhengyang, and my master took a lot of effort to send me to Tianxing Island on time. Huang Xi is grateful to my master and should seize this opportunity to do something for him." Huang Xi scratched his head, his tone full of guilt.
You Su pursed his lips, secretly feeling that all immortal cultivators in the world have their own hardships, so he pushed back the half-drawn sword:
"If floating light grass can grow on this island, then there must be more than one cluster here. Picking all of it won't be considered eradicating it completely."
"Brother, I appreciate your kindness, but two plants are enough. Leave the rest to others." Huang Xi opened the half-filled sack, carefully wrapped the two floating light grasses and put them in, then said a little embarrassedly, "In fact, I also took a lot of other treasures, enough for my master to live a prosperous life."
"Your master will be proud of you." You Su said calmly.
Huang Xi was the first cultivator from another continent that You Su had come into contact with besides his junior sister Xueruo. Although Huang Xi's realm was much higher than his, he spoke to him politely and behaved in a simple and honest manner, which was different from the cultivators from Zhongyuan Continent. This made You Su quite fond of him and he praised him sincerely.
Huang Xi heard this and waved his hands repeatedly in shame, "No, no, I'm afraid that this trip will disappoint the master."
"They have worked so hard to send you here, of course they hope that you can seize the final inheritance."
"Don't be afraid of being laughed at by me, brother. I have never thought about the unattainable inheritance at all. What is placed in the sack is the real opportunity." Huang Xi patted the sack on his back with satisfaction.
"Brother Huang, what you said makes sense." You Su affirmed the other party's pragmatic idea and did not want the other party to be ashamed of it.
Huang Xi scratched his head again, "I still don't know your name, brother? Where did you come from?"
"My last name is You, and I am a cultivator from the Xuanxiao Sect."
"Xuan Xiao Sect?!" Huang Xi seemed to be startled, but he looked at You Su again and praised, "No wonder Brother You was able to enter the island after reaching the lower realm of water condensation. It is indeed obvious that he is from a famous sect."
You Su introduced his origins not only to make friends, but also for a purpose, "Looking at Brother Huang's posture, he must have been to many places. Have you seen any cultivators from my Xuanxiao Sect?"
Huang Xi recalled carefully and shook his head, "I basically keep my distance from people, but I have never seen anyone as extraordinary as Brother You. Tianxing Island is so big, much bigger than what we saw from the outside, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to find."
You Su frowned when he heard this, "Bigger than it looks? Why do you say that, Brother Huang?"
"Brother You, stand on the beach before entering the island. Pay attention to the huge rock you can see when you look inside the island. There are two characters for Zhengyang engraved on it."
You Su didn't see it, of course, but he nodded anyway, "Indeed there was."
"There are many deserts in my Western Desert Continent, and we often need to rely on stones to find the way, so I rely on my eyes to judge the distance very accurately. At that time, I only felt that the stone tablet was only a hundred meters away from the island beach, but when I woke up beside the boulder and walked towards the island beach, it took me nearly three hundred meters. I guess this is also the magical power of the True Immortal Zhengyang." Huang Xi sighed sincerely.
"But he deliberately made Tianxing Island look smaller. What's the point?" You Su asked.
Huang Xi had never thought about this question. He touched his chin and thought for a while before saying, "It's not that it looks smaller, but it was actually compressed by the True Immortal Zhengyang. When we all entered the island, it was naturally uncompressed for the sake of movement. I heard that this island was pulled here by eighteen giant Kuns. If the island is as big as it is now, I'm afraid it can't be pulled, right?"
You Su's heart trembled when he heard this, and he gained a new understanding of the power of Tianxing Realm.
"Brother Huang, do you know where we are on the island right now?"
"Probably in the southwest corner, about a mile away from the coast." You Su nodded secretly.
"Brother You, if you are willing, you can come with me. I can take you to the place where I get the treasure, so that the trip will be worthwhile." Huang Xi also had a good impression of You Su and was very generous.
You Su declined the other party's kindness. After all, they had different goals and there was no need to force them together.
Huang Xi was slightly disappointed, but he also understood. He just felt that it was a bit beyond his ability for the young man to want to seize the inheritance with his level of cultivation.
"Then let's say goodbye here. Brother Huang, the fact that you have encountered so many treasures shows that you are a blessed person. But remember to stop while you are ahead. After all, your wealth is on your back and cannot be hidden." You Su gave a kind reminder before leaving.
The worry in his words was not groundless. There were hundreds of people on this island, and there was no guarantee that there might be vicious people who would kill people and steal treasures.
"Brother You, rest assured. I will find another item for my junior sister that can help her break through the realm, then tear up the letter and leave the island. I have gained a lot in just half a day, and I am already satisfied. But if you decide to go deeper, you must always be vigilant."
Huang Xi took off his backpack again, rummaged through it, and finally took out a box of food wrapped in oil paper.
"This is the special ration of our Western Wasteland Continent, the ash cake. Although it doesn't taste very good, one cake can keep me full for a whole day, and it won't go bad for half a year. I'm afraid I'll be the first monk to leave the island and make a fool of myself, so I won't be able to eat this cake anymore, so I'm giving it to Brother You. I hope you don't think it's too cheap."
You Su wanted to refuse, but Huang Xi was firm in his attitude. He probably wanted to repay You Su's generosity in letting him pick the floating light grass. So You Su had no choice but to accept this simple but practical gift.
"Then Brother Huang, we'll see each other later. If you are really the first to leave the island, you will be the first one, and you will probably become famous."
"Hahaha, I'm afraid it's a reputation for being a coward. But a reputation for being a coward is still a reputation. I also want to have a taste of fame."
Huang Xi laughed heartily, with a strange gleam in his eyes.
This monk who had been working diligently in a remote place certainly had the ambition to become famous, but the environment around him forced him to choose the pragmatic and conservative path.
You Su bowed and waved as he left.
He really hoped that Huang Xi could leave the island safely. After all, his masters were waiting for him. Facing a disciple who was full of gratitude to the sect, how could his masters be disappointed in him?
You Su knew that this was the southwest side, so he continued to go deeper into the island according to the direction of the sun.
The letter from the chief elder said that the closer you get to the center of the island, the rarer the opportunities become.
According to this logic, it is easy to guess that the greatest opportunity - the inheritance of the Immortal Zhengyang - is in the center of the island.
Then there will definitely be many monks who will continue to go deeper into the center of the island. Whether You Su is trying to seize treasure or find someone, he should also take this route.
However, You Su also knew that this was not a final conclusion. As the greatest opportunity, it was impossible to be found so easily.
According to the rules of random transmission, there will inevitably be people with extremely good luck, but the purpose of the True Immortal Zhengyang is to pick out the most gifted person, so You Su guessed that this inheritance might not even surface now, but will wait for an appropriate time to appear.
So he was not impatient, but just moved forward steadily.
But when it got dark, he never expected that the second person he met was——
It would be Huang Xi’s body.
