Fairyland Sunshine

Chapter 131 Xianyang
Xu Heng didn't expect that the Taoist gambler would say this out of the blue.

"Nine Netherworld... So the Mysterious Dark Evil is really emitted from the Nine Netherworld?"

Xuanming Yinsha is also the first-class Yinsha, and has its own merits compared to Jiuyin Zhensha. However, according to rumors, Xuanming Yinsha can only exist in the deepest underground, adjacent to the Nine Netherworlds.

This is something that is clearly recorded in Taoist books, which is why Xu Heng has focused more on the Nine Yin True Evil since he left the mountain.

But Jiuyou, is that a place where living people can set foot?

Xu Heng felt something was wrong and couldn't help asking, "Are you joking, Immortal?"

The gambling Taoist seemed to see what Xu Heng was thinking, and curled his lips and said, "If the Taoist says you can go, then you can go. What, are you afraid?"

Xu Heng could not help but be speechless. He was not afraid, but he was a living being after all. He was naturally cautious about things that crossed the line between life and death.

However, since the Taoist Gambler said this, Xu Heng's heart was moved. If he could really go to the Nine Netherworld, wouldn't it be a pleasure? What's more, he could also find the Mysterious Dark Evil...

Xu Heng had been standing in front of Hesha Pass for some time, and he became eager to try it when he thought of this place.

Xu Heng pondered for a moment, and was sure that he had the intention to agree to it. Finally, he decided to follow his heart and replied, "I am not afraid. I am willing to go with you, the Immortal."

"Good! You are quite straightforward, kid." The gambler laughed and said, "Let's go!"

"Leave now?" Xu Heng had already made up his mind, and he felt refreshed after hearing that. He immediately said, "Senior, please allow me to say goodbye to my fellow Taoists, and then we can leave."

"Okay." The gambler nodded in agreement, then glanced up at the meteorite above. Suddenly, he raised his sleeves, revealing a palm, and grabbed towards the sky!
Everyone present was shocked to see that the mountain-like giant rock suddenly shrank and turned into a fist-sized stone ball, which fell into the palm of the gambler.

"Hmph." The gambler weighed the stone ball and suddenly threw it into Xu Heng's hand. Xu Heng subconsciously caught it in his hand, only to feel that it was as light as a feather, without any weight at all.

Xu Heng couldn't help but ask: "What is this, Immortal?"

"I've brought it all back, how could it be lost?" The gambler waved his hand and said, "This junk is of no use to me, so take it."

The gambler called it "junk", but Xu Heng felt that it was valuable. However, since things had come to this, he could only accept it and say goodbye to the people around him one by one.

Xu Heng and the gambling Taoist were talking to each other, and several people were listening. They were surprised and confused, but Fu Xixuan bowed and said, "Congratulations, Taoist brother. I wish you success in concentrating the evil spirit."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yu and Yun Su also congratulated him. Xu Heng also exchanged greetings, and finally said to Ling Junzi, "Junior sister, please give my regards to Master Aunt for me. When I succeed in Condensing the Evil Spirit, I will go to Yuechi Island to visit Master Aunt."

Ling Junzi didn't say anything, but blinked her long eyelashes slightly, as if waiting for Xu Heng to say something next.

Xu Heng couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and then he said: "Wait until I have mastered the magic, and then I will come to Yuechi Island to see you."

Ling Junzi finally became happy and agreed, "Brother, please don't break your promise again."

"I have no intention of breaking my promise." Xu Heng waved his hand, took off the bag from his waist, put it in Ling Junzi's hand, and said with a smile: "Please take care of this beast for me, Junior Sister."

"gone."

……

Seeing that Xu Heng was finally done, the gambler didn't say any more nonsense. He waved his sleeves violently. Xu Heng felt dizzy and when he came to his senses, he was already on the sea somewhere unknown. There was no similar scenery at all.

Xu Hengben was already heading towards Jiuyou. Just as he was wondering what the scene would be like, he saw that he had only changed the location. He couldn't help but feel confused.

But Xu Heng was a sensible person, and seeing that the gambler had no intention of explaining, he did not ask any more questions. He waited quietly for a while, and suddenly something happened to him.

He noticed that the spiritual energy around him, which was not very strong, seemed to become active and began to gather in front of the two of them, gradually condensing into a human figure, and in a few moments, it became flesh and blood, and every detail was visible.

A word flashed through Xu Heng's mind: "Spiritual manifestation?"

Taoist books say that if one cultivates to the level of being in a trance, one can separate one's consciousness and use magic power, talismans, magic tools, or even directly gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to transform into an incarnation. This is the so-called manifestation of the spirit.

The situation of the spiritual energy gathering is obviously no different from the characteristics of the manifestation of the spirit.

Xu Heng had seen Master Qiao's spirit clone, and might have also seen the spirit clones of other masters, but his cultivation was too low to distinguish them clearly. However, this process was the first time he had ever seen it.

He perked up and looked carefully, but no matter how he looked, the inspiration seemed to simply gather and transform into a white-haired Taoist with a whisk in his hand. He gently waved the pot, placed it on his arm, bowed generously, and said:
"I am Cang Yuanzi, and I have met the Immortal Zhenkong."

"Cang Yuan?" Xu Heng's heart moved. "Cang Yuan?" The gambling Taoist touched his chin and asked suspiciously, "You look familiar, have you ever met me?"

Upon hearing this, Master Cang Yuan was not annoyed. Instead, he smiled and said, "A thousand years ago, I once made a bet with you, and I won by luck."

"Really? I seem to have some impression..." The gambler touched his chin and asked, "From just now, your consciousness has been watching from the side. Do you want to gamble with me again?"

"You know, I never gamble with ordinary people a second time."

"Senior, you misunderstood." Master Cangyuan shook his head and said, "I just noticed that the Taihehui Yuanhai Power Array was broken by the meteorite, and I was worried that it would cause great suffering to the people, so I split my attention to investigate, but I didn't expect that it was you who was in front of me."

The gambler said, "Oh," and asked, "Then why did you follow me?"

Xu Heng inexplicably felt that Master Cang Yuan seemed to be silent for a moment, and then he said: "Junior has a question to ask you, I don't know if it is presumptuous."

"Can I ask for advice?" The gambling Taoist smiled and said, "This is the first time I've seen you, the Taoist, want to ask me a question..."

"I see you have some affinity with me, so go ahead and ask me, but I can't guarantee whether I will answer or not."

"Thank you, senior." Master Cang Yuan bowed and asked seriously, "I want to ask, with a lower-level foundation and a fifth-grade golden elixir, is it possible to achieve Xian Yang?"

"Xian Yang?" Xu Heng was shocked.

Practice Qi and Xuan Guang, condense the evil and refine the Gang, make the dragon and tiger golden elixir, enter a trance and attain the immortal yang, escape from disaster and achieve immortality!
This is the path clearly stated in Taoist books, but Xu Heng has been practicing until now, and at most he has only understood the practice before the Golden Elixir, which he can say is quite clear. When others think about it carefully, they feel it is just confusing and not very clear.

He knew that being too ambitious was not a good thing, and that the obstacles to knowledge and understanding were by no means empty words. However, after hearing this, his heart was still excited, and he could not help but prick up his ears and listen carefully.

The gambling Taoist didn't pay attention to Xu Heng, or maybe he didn't care to hear him. He just shook his head and said, "A person with a lower-level Taoist foundation and a fifth-grade golden elixir can still refine Xianyang. I have never seen this before in my long years of cultivation."

Cang Yuan Zhenren remained calm, but the whisk on his arm moved a little. After a breath, he said, "Is it really hopeless?"

The gambling Taoist laughed and asked, "With a low-level foundation, you can form a fifth-grade golden elixir. With a fifth-grade golden elixir, you can cultivate to the great perfection of refining emptiness. Can you refine Xianyang? Why are you still asking me?"

Master Cang Yuan was shocked.

"Okay." The gambling Taoist said impatiently, "Are you done asking questions? I am not an idle person."

"I am sorry for disturbing you, I will take my leave now." Master Cang Yuan bowed deeply, and finally glanced at Xu Heng and said, "If you have time, you can come to Taihe Sect as a guest."

After saying that, he thanked the gambler again, and then his inspiration dissipated and his figure disappeared.

The Taoist gambler murmured, "The descendant of the Taihe Taoist school... is quite interesting."

A real person who had achieved great accomplishment in refining the void was talking to a 'loose immortal' who had reached an unknown level of Taoism. Xu Heng listened to the whole conversation. He intuitively felt that he had gained a lot, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he had gained nothing. He felt a little impatient. After a brief silence, he could not help but ask, "Excuse me, great immortal, what exactly is Xian Yang?"

The gambler glanced at Xu Heng and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Xian Yang is not Yang, but the fruit of immortality. Only by refining Xian Yang can one become the root of immortality..."

Xu Heng was still confused, and he just subconsciously said: "The fruit of immortality, the root of immortality?"

"Hmph." The gambling Taoist snorted and said, "No matter how much I tell you, you will never understand. I think it's better for you to practice honestly."

Xu Heng knew that it was just as Taoist Du said. To reach such a realm of cultivation was indeed beyond the comprehension of a small cultivator like him who had just made his first steps on the path of the great Dao. Otherwise, the Taoist masters in the sect would naturally teach and explain in detail, so why would he bother asking outsiders.

Of course, it was inevitable to feel disappointed. Xu Heng couldn't help but shake his head, brushing away the distracting thoughts in his mind, and replied: "Yes, I know."

At this time, the gambler was a little surprised and turned around to glance at Xu Heng.

"The stability is quite good. When I cultivate the golden elixir like this,...well, I think it is very likely to be at least the third grade." The gambler thought, but curled his lips.

"Rank one, rank three, rank six, and rank nine have nothing to do with me. Send this kid to the Netherworld quickly. I still have time to find an opponent to gamble with."

After thinking it over, the Taoist didn't say much to Xu Heng. He suddenly shouted, "Let's go!" and raised his sleeves.

Xu Heng saw the dragon and phoenix patterns, wind, cloud and thunder patterns on his robe spinning, and then the heaven and earth began to turn.
