Grandpa, times have changed.

Not long after, Meizu, who had been clamoring to stay, was taken away by Bie Xuening.

Xu Xing stood alone in front of the Sword Ancestor's Hall, gazing at the spot where the two had just stood, pondering how he should answer Ji Yinxue tomorrow.

He, Xu, is the ancestor of swordsmanship, and is proficient in all kinds of arts.

But this was precisely the kind of thing that got him stuck in an area he wasn't good at; after tinkering with it for so many years, he hadn't achieved anything.

He had already said everything he could when answering Xiao Yinxue's question at the Hehuan Sect last time.

(￣_￣)
Let's ask Yuan later.

If tomorrow's answer cannot resolve Xiao Yinxue's doubts, then let her talk to Yuan whenever she has time.

After a while, he withdrew his gaze, turned around, and walked back into the hall.

……

……

The next morning.

It was just getting dark.

Meizu arrived at the Sword Ancestor's Hall early.

Of course, Bie Xuening also came along.

"Good morning, fellow Daoist! Did you feel a little lonely and didn't sleep well last night without my company?"

Have you ever seen a high-level cultivator sleep?
Xu Xing's lips twitched slightly:
Did you sleep well last night?

"Yes, yes, Sword Master's bed is so comfortable, Brother Dao, you must try it if you have the chance!"

“I didn’t sleep,” Bie Xuening explained. “She actually slept all night.”

I just took her there last night, and she immediately started clamoring to find a bed to get her beauty sleep.

I initially thought she was just talking nonsense again, but she fell asleep the moment her head hit the bed...

Her sleeping posture was particularly bad, not at all like a 'true immortal', which made Yue Ling afraid to speak loudly while playing games last night.

"We need to live a regular life to be healthy," Meizu said seriously.

That's utter nonsense.

I used to see you popping up in the group late at night.

Bie Xuening muttered something unbecoming to herself, then decided not to continue arguing with her and got down to business.

"When can we arrive?"

Because they were tasked with sealing the 'Will of Heaven,' she and Meizu could only glimpse a portion of the realm near Qingxu in the Taixuan Realm. For areas further away, they would have to rely on the Immortal Network, so it was better to ask directly.

"She has only recently entered the [Third New Realm] and is still exchanging some things with the person who sent her there, but it should be soon."

"The person who sent her?" Meizu paused, then quickly realized, "The Holy Lord of Void?"

Although the Immortal Network has not yet covered the Taiyi Realm, Ji Yinxue is her only disciple. Over the past five years, she has frequently contacted Xu Xing to learn about the situation in the Taiyi Realm.

"Ah."

It can be said that the existence of the Void Extreme Saint Lord played a significant role in Ji Yinxue's five-year stay in the Taiyi Realm.

……

……

Chaos Sea.

【Third - New Realm】

Amidst the surging chaotic energy, the brilliant light of martial arts dissipated.

Two figures appeared at the boundary of the Third Realm, and their figures did not waver in the slightest even as endless chaotic currents swept past them.

However, upon closer observation, one can see that one of them moves clumsily and with difficulty, as if he is a patient who has just woken up after being bedridden for a long time and is not yet able to coordinate his limbs.

The other person exuded a pure yet eerie Daoist aura.

The originally turbulent chaotic airflow became calm in an instant as it passed by, and was sorted and broken down into strands of pure and clean spiritual energy.

"Understanding, then acting... it's more difficult than I imagined." The Holy Lord of the Void was struggling to act.

Even at the level of a Holy Lord, she felt exhausted while operating in this realm not covered by the light of the world.

Compared to five years ago, the nature of her power has become more complex. What was originally pure 'divine power' belonging to the ritual system has also acquired some magical characteristics.

“After all, this is a completely unfamiliar area for you. Just adapting to the omnipresent ‘chaos’ is not an easy task,” Ji Yinxue said calmly.

Beings that have attained the Dao can hardly survive in the Chaos Sea without the help of external forces.

For example, one could conceal their true nature and hide in a small world, or directly refine a world into a raft.

Only by aligning with the Dao can one transcend the world without relying on external forces, solely through one's own efforts.

However, it is also difficult to stray too far from the world one comes from.

If you want to travel through the Chaos Sea and cross many worlds from one realm to another, you must be able to reach the Profound Realm!

Furthermore, even for those who have attained the profound level, if their own path is not conducive to traversing the chaotic sea, this process will be extremely difficult.

Therefore, only the true understanding remains!

Only those who can see through the true nature of the universe and perceive all things in a single thought can be considered to have the ability to walk in the chaotic sea for a long time.

"That's enough for now. The new law is newly introduced, so we'll need your help in taking care of it."

The unique nature of the ritual system in the Taiyi Realm means that the Taiyi Realm can never achieve true peace.

There are bound to be differences between extreme ideologies, and the clash between ideologies is bound to cause chaos.

To address this issue, she combined the original 'idealistic ritual system' of the Taiyi Realm with the current research on the extraordinary ritual system of the Taixuan Realm, and finally created several methods that were less extreme and more suitable for the situation of the Taiyi Realm.

The combination of ritual and spiritual practice.

Although progress is not as fast as the original 'idealistic ritual system', it has the advantage of a lower threshold.

"it is good."

The Holy Lord of Emptiness nodded slightly.

"When you come to Taiyi Realm again, I will make sure that everything in Taiyi Realm is worthy of your efforts."

"You don't need to do me a favor."

Ji Yinxue looked behind the Void Saint Lord.

In the hazy chaos, tiny specks of pale blue light flickered uncertainly.

Like a galaxy fallen into a chaotic sea, mysterious and dazzling.

Besides the original extreme troublemakers, she also rounded up those reclusive holy masters one by one, killing those who deserved to be killed and punishing those who deserved to be punished.

The Taiyi Realm is very 'clean' now.

"I just hope that more people in the Taiyi Realm can live a more comfortable life."

"……Will do."

Hearing this, Ji Yinxue gave her one last deep look, without saying anything more.

Upon connecting to the Tai Xuan Immortal Network and activating the cross-realm program, the person instantly transformed into a constantly flashing stream of light. In less than a fraction of a second, the stream of light completely disappeared into the surging chaotic aura.

The Holy Lord of the Void gazed intently in the direction where Ji Yinxue had left.

After a long while, she turned around, and a dark jade talisman in her palm burst forth with intense martial arts light, enveloping her and sending her flying towards the Taiyi Realm.

When the jade talisman was given to Ji Yinxue, the immortal network connection node of the third realm had not yet been completed.

At that time, it was unclear how long she would stay in the Taiyi Realm, so the immortal power stored in the jade talisman was enough to support her crossing the third realm.

In case her matter is over but the connection node of the immortal network in the third realm is not yet completed, it will come in handy.

As a result, five years passed, and the Third Realm was completely incorporated into the Immortal Network system. The remaining immortal power was just enough for the Void Extreme Saint Lord to travel back and forth.

……

……

noon.

"Little Yiyi is really amazing."

Meizu nestled in Chi Jiuyu's favorite beanbag chair, smiling as she watched Yuyi bring out sliced ​​fruit and some freshly fried snacks from the kitchen.

Isn't this to wait for Xiao Yinxue to come back?

But with the Sword Master constantly guarding the Sword Ancestor's Hall, she rarely had a chance to be alone with her Daoist brother.

Just then, Jiu Yu returned from the Supreme Dao Sect, so she decided to come and take a look.

"Why has Senior Meizu come to the Sword Sect?"

Having just changed into loose pajamas, Chi Jiuyu came out of the bedroom with some curiosity.

"Of course, it was your martial uncle who missed me and invited me here." Nonsense...

Chi Jiuyu managed to suppress the urge to complain in her heart, but she couldn't help but say it aloud.

"Impossible! My martial uncle is such an awkward person, even if he invited you to the Sword Sect, it wouldn't be for this reason!"

Ok? !

She regretted it as soon as she said it.

He covered the back of his head and jumped up, then 'plop' knelt down again.

"Uncle-Master, I was just talking nonsense! Please don't blame me!"

Oh no, oh no, my mouth is faster than my brain again.

"You really know your martial uncle well." Meizu casually picked up a piece of fruit.

"I was just talking nonsense!" Chi Jiuyu, who had already stood up, had a very serious expression.

Her martial uncle was her greatest help in becoming the leader of the 'Wealthy Fisherman' and 'Sword Sect'. She couldn't afford to offend anyone but her martial uncle!
"Don't worry, I'm here. Your martial uncle doesn't know what we talked about."

"Huh?" Chi Jiuyu was taken aback.

Meizu seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly sat up a little:
"Why don't you take this opportunity to tell us your opinion of us?"

"What 'you guys'?" Chi Jiuyu chose to play dumb.

Meizu, however, made her point out directly:
"You've met me, your master, the Spirit Ancestor, and the Primordial Sovereign, haven't you? Among us, who do you think is the most suitable to be your uncle?"

hiss~
Chi Jiuyu gasped.

If she answers such a suicidal question wrong, she might not see the sun rise tomorrow.

"Of course it's Master!"

She, the Nine Fishermen Ancestor, will always be her master's most loyal disciple!
loyalty!

Meizu's expression remained unchanged:

"Besides your master."

"I don't know, it's up to you, Uncle-Master."

She's not stupid; why would she answer such an obviously suicidal question?

"Emm... Think it through, because after today you may never have the chance to express your thoughts again."

She's bewitching herself!

At this moment, Chi Jiuyu was acutely aware of this.

Laugh to death!

Such a simple trap—how ​​could she, the Nine Fishermen Ancestor, possess such supreme wisdom, possibly...?

"Senior Lingzu, perhaps."

Then again.

Just as Meizu said.

She had to consider whether this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
"Senior Lingzu is gentle, generous, good-looking and has a great figure."

Meizu's expression finally became somewhat complicated.

"So I'm not gentle, not generous, not good-looking, and not in good shape?"

"Oh dear, that's not how it works," Chi Jiuyu analyzed seriously. "You're very beautiful and have a great figure, but these things are all about first impressions, and my thoughts don't necessarily represent my uncle's thoughts!"

"But it's still no match for the Spirit Ancestor, right?"

How exactly did the Spirit Ancestor win her over?

"No, you and Senior Lingzu have different styles of beauty, and neither of you is better!"

"...And what about Yuanjun?"

“Of course, you are more suitable, Senior Meizu!” Chi Jiuyu said without hesitation.

She wasn't very familiar with Senior Yuanjun.

"So I'm ranked third, but my personality should be better than your master's, right?"

"That's absolutely true!" She felt this all too well. "Master is just too short-tempered..."

Just as I was about to launch into a tirade, a chill suddenly ran down my spine.

Driven by 'supreme wisdom', she immediately changed her mind.

"But apart from that, there are no other flaws, and Master is the most handsome among you all, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was lifted up uncontrollably.

Clearly, her remedial measures did not work.

Before I knew it, I found myself in a bamboo forest, my hands and feet bound together.

The rope was taut, and she was hanging from a frame made of bamboo, swaying back and forth.

Chi Jiuyu: "..."

Are you tying up a pig?
When did you set up the frame, Master? Didn't you used to just hang it directly from the tree?

For some reason, Chi Jiuyu did not feel panicked. Instead, she was extremely calm and even felt a sense of relief.

admit!

This time, he died a worthy death.

The problem lies with the fact that Old Ancestor Jiu Yu was too naive!
In her blind spot, Yue Ling, who was playing games on a small stool, saw this scene and immediately stopped the game in the background, turned on the camera function and took a picture of it.

……

……

Meanwhile, in Chi Jiuyu's cave.

Having just tricked Chi Jiuyu with a single move, Meizu clapped his hands, stood up, and looked at Yu Yi, who was standing there stunned in mid-air.

"I'm leaving now. Xiao Yiyi, your cooking is excellent. Come visit me with Jiu Yu sometime."

"Goodbye, Lord Meizu," Yu Yi replied subconsciously.

"Uh-huh."

With one step forward, Meizu vanished completely.

When he reappeared, he was already inside the Sword Ancestor's Hall, and glanced at Chi Jiuyu, who was hanging and swaying in the bamboo forest.

"You've gone too far! How could you treat your disciple like this?" Meizu rebuked him seriously.

Bie Xuening remained calm.

This guy not only instigated that traitor to speak ill of her, but now he's turning around and blaming her!
"What did you all say?"

She only heard the last sentence.

"It's nothing, we were just chatting casually, and it just so happened that we came across you," Meizu said casually.

Who told Jiu Yu to say she was inferior to the Spirit Ancestor!
I just helped her criticize the Sword Master, which can be considered as settling the score for the little thing I did to her earlier.

Regarding this explanation...

Bie Xuening didn't actually have too many doubts, after all, that rebellious disciple had courted death more than once or twice.

However, she still glanced at Xu Xing, intending to verify it further.

Xu Xing shook his head slightly:

"Maybe, I haven't paid much attention."

He only heard Jiu Yu's last words.

"Ah."

That's the end of that matter.

Given that the traitor had spoken ill of her behind her back, Bie Xuening decided to hang her up for several hours as punishment.

As for why her hands and feet were tied together that way...

Isn't she as fearless as a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water?
About two minutes later.

A woman with neat short hair and every step she took was as precise as if measured by a ruler as she entered the hall.

"Master, Sword Master, Sword Ancestor."

He bowed respectfully, every movement meticulous and flawless.

This was Ji Yinxue, the Pure World Dao Master, who had returned from the Taiyi Realm and had already comprehended the 'Ultimate Dao'. (End of Chapter)
