From a martial arts disciple to a god through countless trials and tribulations

Chapter 46 Token
In the stream, a tattered boat was swaying forward at a very fast speed. Suddenly, with a bang, the bow of the boat hit the underwater reef and a big crack appeared.

"careful!"

Chen Xuan suddenly grabbed the fiery red fox's neck and jumped to the river bank. Looking back, he saw that the boat was stuck in the river and the stream water was rushing into the cabin. It could no longer be used.

The fiery red fox was terrified, knowing that he had gotten into trouble. He held his head with both hands, squatted on the ground, trembling, and begging for mercy:

"Ah! Little Fox didn't see the stone. It wasn't intentional. Please, Qi practitioner, spare Little Fox."

Chen Xuan stared at her and asked curiously, "How old are you?"

The fiery red fox was stunned and pondered for a while. He began to count on his fingers, with doubt flashing in his eyes. He replied, "Oh, the little fox is one or two years old..."

"You...ah, I'm used to it."

Chen Xuan's face was full of black lines and he was speechless for a while.

Old men in their sixties and seventies, like Chu Huogun and Li Hansong, said that they were old and it was time to work hard.

The ghosts and monsters in the Southern Wilderness are even more exaggerated.

Young ghosts who are only one or two years old and whose teeth haven't grown yet and who can't even speak clearly have come to the dangerous Peach Blossom Land to fight for their future.

"Youth is full of vigor and vitality. It's the right age to venture out into the world... Qi Refiner, wait for the little fox."

As the fiery red fox was speaking, he suddenly saw Chen Xuan shaking his head and leaving. He suddenly became anxious and hurriedly trotted to catch up, looking up and flatteringly saying, "Little fox, help the Qi practitioner carry his luggage."

She was very diligent and had a sharp eye. She immediately took the fishing net from Chen Xuan's hand and put it on her back.

The fiery red fox felt that Chen Xuan was very safe because he was very powerful and had no hostility towards a small thing like her... Having just experienced being caught by the old fisherman, she did not dare to walk alone for the time being.

Chen Xuan didn't care about the fox's little thoughts. He moved his fingertips lightly, rubbing the blue and purple talismans in his sleeves, and his thoughts were transmitted.

"Are you there?"

In Xinzhai's field of vision, the location of the light spot representing the Black Cat Goddess was not in this world and had deviated to an infinite distance, but the location of Yan Yushu's black light spot was very close to him, only about ten or twenty miles away.

"Here I am."

After a few breaths, Yan Yushu's cold voice rang out in Chen Xuan's mind through the communication talisman, and continued: "I am now following the ancient villagers and heading towards the ancient village of Peach Blossom Spring where the Destiny Master is."

"You were arrested?"

Chen Xuan asked, wondering why Yan Yushu appeared and walked with the ancient villagers.

"The people here think I have ancient features. When they see me, they shout 'Goddess of the Underworld' and beg me to go meet their ancestors."

Yan Yushu laughed sweetly, as if she found this very interesting. "So I went along with it and happily agreed to go to their village."

With her great talent and beautiful appearance, she has the qualifications to act without restraint. No matter where she goes, she is surrounded by people and becomes the focus of everyone's attention. Even the ancients could not resist her charm.

Ancient appearance refers to the appearance of ancient people, representing the perfect physique and qualifications under ideal conditions.

Chen Xuan frowned slightly and asked, "Are you sure you can deal with that destiny person?"

Yan Yushu smiled and said, "He's just an old immortal who's barely surviving. The real treasures in the Peach Blossom Spring are all in his hands... By the way, you've cultivated special immortal energy. Shouldn't this be the beginning of your third ascension?"

She knew that Chen Xuan relied on his extreme comprehension in the Six Desire Heavens to quickly cultivate the special immortal energy inherited from the true scriptures, so she asked this question.

Chen Xuan did not hide anything and said frankly, "Soon."

Huangliang Qi is a special immortal Qi that reflects the present body. Its effect is many times stronger than the ordinary twelve Qi of mountains and seas. Now a large amount of energy is accumulated in various parts of the body, like a flood that has reached its peak and is ready to break through the valve at any time.

He can try to push his physical limits and go one step further.

Yan Yushu immediately said, "Be patient. I'll come to see you in the evening."

She regarded Chen Xuan as a staunch ally and would never allow him to encounter any accident, so she decided to protect him personally.

When achieving enlightenment, the practitioner will fall into a deep sleep.

They only maintain a slight awareness of external dangers, and if they are not careful, they may suffer unexpected disasters.

Afterwards, Chen Xuan continued to exchange some information with Yan Yushu, and then ended the communication neatly.

The two are just cooperative allies on the road of Qi training and there is no other unnecessary relationship between them, so after a few words, each of them has his own things to do.

Chen Xuan had a letter to deliver, and Yan Yushu also had something that Lu Zhuan had entrusted to him.

…………

Peach Blossom Spring is just a small secret place. It is said to be a small piece of debris left after the collapse of a paradise in the Mountain and Sea Era.

The area is not large, and is surrounded by white fog. Occasionally, low roars of beasts can be heard, which is terrifying. Once people mistakenly enter it, they will disappear from the sight.

"It's only a few dozen miles away. With my current strength, half an hour is enough."

Chen Xuan muttered to himself, and then he and the fox continued to move upstream along the river, aiming to reach the ancient village of Taohuayuan before dark.

But soon, he was forced to stop and was stopped by a group of Qi practitioners.

There were about ten people, all of whom were Qi practitioners who came from all directions and finally gathered by the stream.

"Are you alone, fellow Daoist? Please join us and hunt the ancients together."

The leading middle-aged monk smiled and warmly invited Chen Xuan to join him in doing something big and snatching the antiques.

"The ancients were all beasts, fools who had never seen the world. They picked on the wrong people." A monk in the crowd laughed coldly, looking down on the ancient people in Peach Blossom Spring.

Chen Xuan shook his head and refused, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, but I need to go to the central area."

Qigong practitioners are not vegetarians. As time goes by, monks scattered across the country gather together one after another. They are no longer lone lambs to be slaughtered. Their status gradually changes compared with the ancients, and their offense and defense become interchangeable.

The middle-aged monk was surprised and said, "You want to go to the central area? There are many ancient people there, and there are people who are in charge of the situation. You can't just rob things casually."

There are scattered ancient settlements on the outskirts, where people burn, kill, loot, and do whatever they want, and no one cares.

However, the ancient people who inhabited the central region were numerous and were educated and governed by the Chosen Ones, maintaining a stable order and rules. They would not arrest monks without authorization, but in return, the monks were unable to display their skills and gain opportunities.

Chen Xuan refused again: "Fellow Daoist, there is no need to persuade me anymore. I have made up my mind."

His goal was clear. He said goodbye to everyone and continued on his way forward.

The antiques outside are not of high value. Even if he brings out the rotten harpoon and broken fishing net in his hand, how can they be transformed into priceless magical weapons after being washed away by the dust of time?

The real good things in Peach Blossom Spring are all in the hands of the "Ancestor", the one who is destined by heaven.

"The harpoon and fishing net in this man's hands are antiques. Should we..." Someone stared at Chen Xuan's departing back and whispered, winking at other Qi practitioners, his meaning was very clear.

"He can hunt ancient people alone, and you are worthy of coveting his things? Do you want to take us to die?" The middle-aged monk was shocked when he heard this.

The others were also shocked, not understanding why such foolish words would come out of someone's mouth. They all took a few steps back from that person, fearing that they would be contaminated by his stupidity.

Chen Xuan possessed two ancient artifacts, which were obviously snatched from ancient people, and they looked unharmed. This kind of person who hides his true power...

They had to gather together to have the courage and strength to hunt lone ancient people, so how could they be so foolish as to provoke trouble like Chen Xuan?
"This person is advancing, so he must be confident he can enter the Peach Blossom Spring Ancient Village. This kind of person is very dangerous." The middle-aged monk solemnly warned the monks to stay within their proper limits and not give in to greed. Afterwards, they hurried to discuss their plan to hunt the ancients from the outer regions.

In the distance, the sound of discussion could no longer be heard.

Chen Xuan hurried on his way and encountered groups of monks several times. Some of them still looked at him with bright eyes and invited him warmly.

Chen Xuan refused them one by one, but later he became annoyed and would take a detour to avoid them whenever he saw a group of monks.

The fiery red fox also saw many groups of ghosts and monsters. A few times, she even saw the figures of familiar friends. However, she ignored them all and decided to follow Chen Xuan to the central area of Peach Blossom Spring. She was also a little fox who wanted to accomplish great things...

In the second half, the sight of monks and ghosts gradually became rare, and only scattered lone travelers could be encountered occasionally.

Chen Xuan was very fast and passed many people on the way. He arrived at the foot of Taoshan without stopping.

"arrive."

At the foot of the mountain, there is a tall wooden archway with bright peach blossoms. A winding mountain road is hidden among it, leading to the ancient village with curling smoke behind it, and the sounds of chickens and dogs occasionally can be heard.

Beneath the tall memorial archway, some sturdy ancient men, armed with gleaming weapons instead of crude farm tools, were clad in armor, looking majestic and maintaining order.
"You greedy descendants, stop making trouble and stay in peace. Your ancestors will not be able to do anything about your future!"

"We know the rules. We know the rules."

Four or five monks and ghosts who had arrived earlier nodded quickly. Then someone came out and said loudly:
"I have a token, I have a token!"

Behind a wooden table, an ancient scholar holding a brush and flipping through a book raised his stern face when he heard the voice and stretched out his hand to ask for it:
"Give me the token..."

"..."

Chen Xuan carried a harpoon on his back and observed from a distance for a moment. After making sure there was no hidden danger, he walked towards the crowd under the archway.

　Sorry, I have something to do these two days, I owe you two chapters, I will make up for it tomorrow
