Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 195: Zhou Sheng appears, birds and sparrows transform

Soon, Xia Ye contacted all the personnel deployed by "Heaven" in the country. These people were recruited in the past two years. Under his deliberate training, their loyalty was absolutely guaranteed.

According to the difference in their cultivation strength, he divided these guys into two levels, "Heavenly Soldiers" and "Heavenly Generals", and formed several teams. Each team was led by a "Heavenly General" with four or more "Heavenly Soldiers", and their abilities could cooperate with each other and complement each other.

For example, those "superior aptitude" who were subdued from "Biyou Village" are now the "heavenly generals" of "Heaven". Except for Qiu Rang and Bi Yuan who are in charge of logistics, all others have been sent out by him to lead the team.

There is no doubt that both the "Heavenly Soldiers" and the "Heavenly Generals" have all undergone Xia Ye's elixir transformation, especially the "Heavenly Generals". These guys are now extremely powerful, although they are still not as strong as Xiao Zi's strongest level in the first stage, but they are not much worse than when they had just completed the transformation.

After a while, under Xia Ye's arrangement, several teams lurking in the country immediately took action, marched towards various forces, and began to pay close attention to their movements.

Now, the position of "Bi Youlong" played by Yu Huadu in the company is already deeply rooted. Xia Ye can know all the company's monitoring information at the first time. With the cooperation of the two, every move of these forces is under his control.

However, Xia Ye didn't plan to arrange the contact right away. He had one more thing to do before that, which could be regarded as preparation for the contact later...

After making the arrangements, he hung up a sign that said "Out to Gather Herbs" and walked straight out of the clinic, with a flash of fire all around him...

call!
Then he turned into a ball of fire and left.

After a while...

call!
A flash of fire appeared, and Xia Ye's figure appeared near Longhu Mountain. He then hid his body and set out on the road up the mountain. Soon he arrived at the gate of Tianshi Mansion and walked in.

"coming?"

As soon as he stepped into the gate of the Tianshi Mansion, the old Tianshi's voice rang in his ears. He smiled and nodded slightly:
"Old Heavenly Master, I came here to visit you because I have something to ask Senior Huaiyi. May I ask where you are now?"

"Oh, you're looking for Huaiyi. He's currently teaching Chu Lan in the open space at the back of the mountain. Just go find him."

Seeing that this kid came for something, the old Taoist priest did not show up or respond directly.

"Okay, thank you, old master."

After two years of communication and exchanges in spiritual practice, the two had already become friends who exchanged ideas and attained enlightenment, and acquaintances regardless of age. When they met each other, there was no unnecessary nonsense or redundant formalities, and everything was just to the point.

then……

Xia Ye soon arrived at the back mountain of Longhu Mountain and saw Zhang Huaiyi in an open space. Next to him was a young man wearing a Taoist robe, who was practicing martial arts.

"Senior Huaiyi, Chu Lan!"

Xia Ye smiled slightly upon seeing this, and then he stopped his hiding method. Zhang Huaiyi immediately turned around, and the young man also stopped.

"Brother Ye!"

There is no doubt that this young man is Zhang Chulan, the original protagonist of "Under One Person". However, due to Xia Ye's intervention, he no longer has to worry and struggle to find the truth of the Jiashen Rebellion as before.

Of course, according to Xia Ye's understanding, what Zhang Chulan knows about what happened back then is just the same version as him and the old Taoist priest. Zhang Huaiyi is still hiding the real truth and will definitely not reveal it easily.

Over the past year or so, in order to improve his cultivation and strength more quickly, Xia Ye would seek out the old Taoist priest to communicate from time to time, and had come to Longhu Mountain to bother him quite often. Now that Zhang Chulan was the old Taoist priest's disciple, the two naturally became familiar with each other.

Because of the relationship between the old Taoist priest and Zhang Huaiyi, Xia Ye's strength was not hidden from Zhang Chulan. Moreover, this guy was as good at hiding and keeping his mouth shut as his grandfather. Under the instructions of the two elders, he naturally would not say anything.

Xia Ye didn't care about this. After all, Zhang Chulan only knew that he had hidden "top-level" strength, and knew nothing else. This was also the protection of the two elders, and they would not let him be easily swept into such a storm...

At the same time, Xia Ye also has his own plans. As the original protagonist, even if he embarks on a different path, he will still be favored by heaven and earth, and perhaps he will still be the center of certain events. He can't help but look forward to what kind of surprises this guy will bring him in the future.

At this time, seeing Xia Ye suddenly appear, Zhang Chulan immediately showed joy and hurried over to greet him:
"Brother Ye, why are you here?"

Before, every time Xia Ye came, he would give him some pills, which were of great benefit to his cultivation. Over time, he naturally felt grateful, and it was very natural for him to call him "Brother".

"Chu Lan, are you practicing? Take it!"

Seeing Zhang Chulan coming, Xia Ye smiled slightly, took out a small porcelain bottle full of pills with a flick of his palm, and threw it to him. Zhang Chulan immediately caught it.

"Brother Ye, what is this?"

"This is the Yiqi Pill I made specifically for you. Haven't you been practicing 'Qi Body Origin' recently? This pill can remove the impurities in your true Qi, making it closer to the Qi of the origin of heaven and earth, and it can also allow you to better feel the heaven and earth!"

"Really, Brother Xie Ye!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan was immediately surprised. He felt that his "Brother Ye" treated him better than his own father. Because of this, he always felt that Xia Ye was an "elder".

In his opinion, Xia Ye was like a very close relative in his family. Every time he came, he would bring him good things and always think of him about something in his daily life.

And this time...

"Xia Ye, you have to walk the path of cultivation on your own. If you keep giving him these pills, aren't you afraid that he will go astray and have problems?"

Zhang Huaiyi also came over, and when he saw that his grandson looked so useless, he immediately became angry.

"Haha, Senior Huaiyi, I can't say anything about other elixirs, but you know the elixirs I refine very well, so you can rest assured that they will only benefit Chu Lan and won't have any side effects."

Xia Ye grinned and waved his hand in response.

"Um……"

"Alright, alright, Xia Ye and I have something to talk about, so go back to practicing!"

After taking a look at Xia Ye, Zhang Huaiyi immediately understood that this guy was looking for him, so he raised his eyebrows and shouted, and Zhang Chulan immediately understood.

"Okay, okay, okay. Thank you, Brother Ye. I'm going to practice now!"

Zhang Chulan grinned, and then disappeared in a flash.

And when Zhang Chulan leaves...

Zhang Huaiyi looked at Xia Ye again and sighed at him:
"Well, of course I know how good your pills are, but I'm worried that Chu Lan will become dependent on them and slack off in his practice."

"Don't worry, senior. I can see that Chu Lan has been working hard, otherwise I would not have given him the elixir to help him. After all, he has fallen behind in practice before. Even with the guidance of the old master and you in the past two years, it is difficult to make up for the time gap in such a short time."

Xia Ye glanced in Zhang Chulan's direction and spoke with a smile.

"Oh, by the way, didn't the old Taoist priest say before that he would use this Luotian Grand Ceremony to hone Chu Lan? How is Chu Lan preparing?"

he asked again.

"Well, this kid's cultivation is indeed similar to mine back then, and his talent is even stronger than mine. Now his thunder technique is on par with Zhang Lingyu's. Coupled with his 'Qi Body Origin', there shouldn't be many people of his generation who can beat him."

"In that case, I have to increase Chu Lan's strength, okay?"

Hearing this, Xia Ye suddenly smiled and said.

"I just happen to have a new plan recently, which may improve the strength of Chu Lan's opponents. You'd better let him prepare."

"Oh? Do you have a new plan?"

Zhang Huaiyi raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but ask curiously.

He has been paying attention to Xia Ye in the past two years. After all, his own son and Chu Lan's father is still working under him, so he has to care about him, right?
Therefore, he also knew that Xia Ye had basically remained silent for the past two years, so it was normal for him to take new actions after such a long time.

"That's right, that's why I came to see you. I remember that you have been in contact with Senior Zhou Sheng, right? Can I meet him?"

Xia Ye nodded, but did not clearly state his plan. This was considered a tacit understanding between both parties.

"Zhou Sheng? Why are you looking for him? Oh... do you want to learn about his 'Feng Hou Qi Men'?"

As soon as Zhang Huaiyi began to have doubts, he suddenly thought that this kid had been exposed to quite a few of the "Eight Wonders" over the years, and perhaps he wanted to use this to verify and make further breakthroughs.

"Well, I guess so. I am indeed interested in Senior Zhou Sheng's 'Fenghou Qimen'. Of course, the main reason is because I want to explore the inner scene and need to comprehend the sorcerer's techniques..." Xia Ye replied.

However, as he said, he did want to begin exploring the inner scene and did need to further comprehend the sorcerer's techniques, but this was not the only reason. There was another reason related to the "plan" that he was not willing to state.

"Oh, that's not a problem, but he usually comes to me on his own initiative, and I don't really have any way to contact him. You know, we old guys are good at hiding, and he has been hiding all the time..."

Zhang Huaiyi thought about it, agreed at first, but then shook his head.

"But I can remember this for you. I'll call you over next time he comes. He knows that Brother Seventeen and I are both on Mount Longhu. Even if there's nothing going on, he'll come over once or twice a year."

"Is this so..."

"Okay then, I'll trouble you, Senior."

Xia Ye couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this. For his current plan, it would be best if he could find Zhou Sheng directly, but he also knew that Zhang Huaiyi would not lie to him, so he had to give up for the time being.

"In this case, I have to find another way first," he thought to himself.

But just then...

"hiss--"

"Oh, right!"

Zhang Huaiyi seemed to have thought of something again and suddenly slapped his head.

"I remember now. The last time Third Brother came, he seemed very happy. He said that there was a disciple in Wudang Mountain who had comprehended the 'Feng Hou Qi Men' and might be able to inherit his legacy. He should have planned to observe secretly first!"

"Um……"

He said as he thought about it carefully again.

"Yes, that should be correct. I remember that boy's name seemed to be Wang Ye. If you are in a hurry to find the third brother, you can go to Wudang to find this boy. He should be hiding beside him." "Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Ye narrowed his eyes and a lazy yet extraordinary figure appeared in his mind.

"Wang Ye..."

Judging from the time, Wang Ye must have comprehended the "Fenghou Qimen" and successfully embarked on the path of cultivation. According to Zhang Huaiyi's statement, everything really matches up!

"So, Zhou Sheng has actually been hiding beside Wang Ye all along? Then the mysterious man who kept causing trouble for Wang Ye in the original plot...could it be him?"

When Xia Ye thought of this, he suddenly thought of something.

He remembered that in the original story, there was such a mysterious guy who had troubled Wang Ye at least three times. The first time he was disguised as a "moustache man", the second time he was disguised as Jin Yong's "Ruhua", and the third time he was in the sea...

Fans originally speculated that this mysterious man might be Gu Jiting who disappeared in front of everyone in the Shuzi Sect, or Wang Ye's "Fenghou Qimen" had some influence on his observation of the world. But now it seems that this may not be the case. This mysterious man might be Zhou Shengye.

When Xia Ye traveled through time, the comics had only been updated to the end of Nathan Island. Naturally, he had no idea of ​​the subsequent developments, nor did he know whether this foreshadowing had been revealed...

But combining the previous plot and current intelligence, we can know that the "mysterious man" has no real intention to harm, and Zhou Sheng may have always been by Wang Ye's side. Then all this may be Zhou Sheng's test of Wang Ye, or a kind of guidance.

"Well, very likely!"

After this analysis, Xia Ye was basically certain in his heart, so he bowed to Zhang Huaiyi.

"Okay, then I'll go to Wudang Mountain right away. Thank you for your guidance, senior!"

"What's the big deal? If you're really in a hurry, just go now..."

Zhang Huaiyi waved his hand and then gave another reminder.

"I think Third Brother must be very fond of that kid. If you want to lure him out quickly, you can find a chance to beat him up, beat him to death!"

"Uh……"

"Okay, got it."

Hearing this, Xia Ye couldn't help but look at Zhang Huaiyi deeply. He finally knew who Zhang Chulan took his personality from. This was such a mean idea!
But...

"Ha ha……"

He then grinned again, this was exactly what he wanted, now there was not much time left before the Luotian Grand Ceremony, he naturally had to find Zhou Sheng as soon as possible!

then……

Xia Ye immediately bowed again, said goodbye, and left the place in a flash. He found a deserted place, practiced "Fire Escape", and disappeared again.

Now, he has set up hidden "fire sources" almost everywhere in China and near various sects, so it is quite convenient for him to move around. In a short while, he arrived near Wudang Mountain again.

"Um……"

After figuring out the direction, Xia Ye hid his body and ran towards Wudang Mountain. After searching for a while, he finally found Wang Ye on a stone platform halfway up the mountain and began to observe him secretly.

At this moment, this guy was practicing martial arts, and his master Zhong Yunlong was standing beside him, instructing him on the details of the practice. Judging from his movements, he should be practicing Wudang's "Tai Chi". Although he has been practicing for less than two years, he has already achieved the state of combining hardness and softness, and the harmony of yin and yang.

"This guy's talent is truly amazing!"

Now that he had found Wang Ye, Xia Ye was no longer in a hurry. He simply sat down cross-legged, looked at Wang Ye for a while, and then praised him.

He remembered that in the original plot of "Under One Person", this guy was a very important character. In addition to practicing "Fenghou Qimen", he was also gifted. He had only been practicing for two years, but he had already far surpassed his peers!

Although this was largely due to the "Feng Hou Qi Men", the fact that Wang Ye could comprehend this "Feng Hou Qi Men" itself proved his talent. After all, not everyone can comprehend this thing. Most people will lose themselves due to over-expanded desires and eventually be trapped in that inner scene...

Just like the three Taoist priests in the cave behind Wudang Mountain.

This means that this guy was born with the aptitude to practice Taoism and possesses an extremely rare character. This natural gift combined with his extraordinary understanding means that no matter which path he takes, he should have smooth sailing!
"Um……"

Thinking of this, Xia Ye immediately became interested. He felt that if Wang Ye was given more guidance, he might achieve great things in the future. Besides, this guy was a nosy person.

However, now that this guy has mastered the "Fenghou Qimen", apart from Zhang Chulan who also practiced the "Qi Body Origin", he should be the undisputed number one among his peers who participated in the "Luotian Dajiao". There is no need to have much contact with him for the time being, just let him maintain his own strength.

So, Xia Ye looked around twice before retracting his gaze. He immediately began to observe the surroundings and look for anything unusual. If Zhou Sheng was really hiding nearby, he would definitely find him...

And sure enough...

"Ok?"

His eyes suddenly focused and he looked above the heads of Wang Ye and the other man. There was a bird's nest on the tree branch, which made him realize that something was wrong!
"This is?!"

At this moment, Xia Ye could sense that a mysterious aura was emanating from the bird's nest. The aura was so light that it seemed to be one with the heaven and earth. Even someone with the cultivation level of Zhong Yunlong would find it difficult to detect, but it could not escape his eyes.

The next moment, his eyes flashed, and "understanding" was instantly activated. The picture in his eyes also changed. Wisps of invisible air suddenly emerged in the air, revealing their tracks.

"Um……"

At this moment, one could see that this mysterious energy was hanging down from the bird's nest and connected to Wang Ye's body, while another strand was floating high into the sky and extending into the distance...

After feeling it carefully for a moment, Xia Ye immediately confirmed that it indeed contained the flavor of "Qi Men". It seemed that this should be the magic that Zhou Sheng used on Wang Ye to maintain the sense so that he could arrive in time if any situation occurred.

only……

"Why are these two auras connected in the bird's nest at the same time?" Xia Ye narrowed his eyes and wondered in his heart, but he didn't have an answer for the moment.

After observing for a while without any results, he considered it as a feature of some magic performed by Zhou Sheng. He did not intend to get to the bottom of it at this time. After all, the answer would become clear after Zhou Sheng was brought out later.

Then...

Xia Ye sat aside and waited, waiting for the opportunity when Wang Ye was left alone. He really intended to put Zhang Huaiyi's dirty trick into practice. If he was really blamed by Zhou Sheng, he could just pass the blame, right?
And he waited until the sunset and night fell. When Wang had finished dinner and started taking a walk on the mountain trail, he finally found an opportunity!
……

……

Da da da……

"Woooo ...

"I feel sleepy after eating so much. I'll go back to my room after walking around for a few rounds. I'll go to bed early tonight, so that Master won't complain about me being late tomorrow morning."

On the quiet path, Wang Ye was yawning and talking to himself, but although he said this, his face did not show any concern and he still looked lazy.

From his happy expression, it can be seen that after practicing on this mountain for almost two years, he did not feel bored. Instead, he felt relaxed physically and mentally, and had no intention of going down the mountain at all...

It's no wonder. Compared to the troublesome things at home and the intrigues he will face after entering the society, he still prefers the leisure and tranquility of the mountains. He only needs to practice and gain insights every day and doesn't have to think about anything else.

In this way, Wang Ye felt the night breeze blowing while walking along the path deep into the forest. He stopped when he reached a pool of water and there was no more road ahead, so he prepared to turn back...

But just then...

Wow!

As soon as he turned his head, he heard a sound of breaking air, and then he felt his head was covered by something. He was stunned for a moment, and then he felt a heavy blow coming towards him.

Boom!
It seemed to be a stick or something, anyway, it was some hard object. Wang Ye only felt that the blow hit his head directly into his Niwan Palace. His mind suddenly became chaotic, his body swayed, and he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

thump!
At this moment, there was no human figure in front of him, only a bamboo stick floating in the air. A large sack was covered on his head. The opening of the sack suddenly shrank, binding his arms tightly.

Immediately afterwards...

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Without any pause, the bamboo stick struck down again, again and again, each time hitting Wang Ye's head hard.

"what!!!"

The next second, a cry of pain rang out, and Wang Ye began to struggle violently, trying to break free from the restraints, but the more he struggled, the tighter the bag became. At the same time, a stream of mysterious energy was injected into him, directly blocking his Qi meridians!

Boom!
thump!
Just like that, after who knows how many times, Wang finally stopped struggling and fell down, leaving only half a sentence before fainting:

"Don't let me know who you are..."

And it was obvious that even after he fainted, the bamboo stick had no intention of stopping...

The next moment, I saw it raised high again, and then it fell down again!

call!
But just then...

Plop plop plop!

Suddenly, the sound of wings flapping could be heard above the bamboo stick. It came very fast from far away and arrived in front of Wang Ye in a blink of an eye...

It turned out to be a sparrow!

The next moment, the sparrow flapped its small wings violently and blew the bamboo stick aside. Its body shape instantly changed in a puff of smoke and turned into the appearance of an old man.

"Where are you from, fellow Taoist? Why don't you show up and have a chat?"

The old man's eyes narrowed and he spoke in a deep voice.

(In the latest episode 681, Feng Hou Qimen confirmed that he has abilities similar to the Seventy-two Transformations)
