Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 268 Reunion with Old Wei

In this life, we will meet many people. Some come and go without leaving a trace, while others stay and leave a lasting impression. Even if they disappear quietly afterward, the traces they left behind are remembered and cherished by people even after many years.

For Meng Wu'an, Yang Mengying, whom he spoke of, was springtime, regret, an unattainable and unforgettable memory, and also a part of his inner world.

Now, with that sword strike and the words carved on Sijian Cliff, the curtain has fallen, and what remains, just as Yu Changsheng said, is the brilliance of spring.

Let's leave something behind too.

Li Minghan thought for a moment, then suggested, and with a swift movement of his blade, he also left something on a corner of Sijian Cliff:

"Thoughts on the sword have their limits, but longing for loved ones is endless. May the rest of my life be filled with smooth paths. — Li Minghan"

"Alright, not bad." Li Minghan clapped his hands, chuckled, and nodded in satisfaction.

Yu Changsheng pondered for a moment, looked at the lines of text carved by Li Minghan, and then carved a line of text in the same way:

"If your heart faces the sun, there will be light everywhere; follow your heart and everything will be beautiful. — Yu Changsheng"

Li Minghan read through the text word by word, gave Yu Changsheng a thumbs-up, nodded, and looked at him with a knowing smile. Then, he raised an eyebrow at Yu Changsheng, smiled slightly, and said in a low voice:

"Speaking of which, did you see that love letter our peak master wrote? Tsk tsk, it really is..."

Li Minghan clicked his tongue in amazement; clearly, the first time he saw that thing, it had also greatly shocked him.

Yu Changsheng nodded, but before he could say anything, Meng Wu'an, having finished all this, clasped his hands in a fist salute to the two of them, his expression returning to calm, and said:

"In that case, I'll take my leave now. There's still half the time left in the secret realm. During this time, Fellow Daoist Changsheng, please don't wander around. Stay with Fellow Daoist Li for safety. Your physical condition can't withstand any more exertion."

"I have other matters to attend to, so let's part ways for now. If there's a chance after the secret realm ends, let's have a drink together. If you ever come to my Purple Rainbow Sect, you can mention my name."

"Alright, then we'll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Meng." Yu Changsheng and Li Minghan smiled and nodded to Fellow Daoist Meng.

"By the way, I ran into Zhang Tianwen on the east side of Sijian Cliff before. Just to be on the safe side, you can go and meet up with him."

After thinking for a moment and giving one last word of advice, Meng Wu'an stepped onto his longsword, transformed into a streak of light, and soared into the sky, leaving Sijian Cliff.

We still have a day and a half left in the secret realm, so we can't just linger here.

"Chang Sheng, if you're alright, let's go."

Watching Meng Wu'an leave, Li Minghan turned to look at Yu Changsheng, pondered for a moment, and asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that I'll have to trouble you again along the way."

Yu Changsheng smiled wryly, checked his physical condition, and let out a soft breath.

Although the two Rejuvenation Pills saved his life, the injuries were too severe. His heart was almost completely pierced. It can be said that if it weren't for the timely treatment and the life-saving Rejuvenation Pills, he would have been seriously injured.

This time, Yu Changsheng is likely to die here. At least for the time being, he can forget about using his cultivation again. At this moment, he is no different from a cripple. There is no one to take care of him. In this secret realm, any mist beast can kill him.

"There's no trouble at all, no need to be so polite," Li Minghan waved his hand and chuckled.

"This secret realm will close in a day and a half. Let's take advantage of the time and hunt down another batch of mist beasts. This kind of opportunity is rare. We should also see if we can meet up with Senior Brother Zhang. That way, we'll be safer."

"Okay. Let's do it your way." Yu Changsheng nodded and gave Li Minghan an apologetic smile.

It was obvious that her current state would distract Li Minghan from taking care of her, and in this Illusionary Mist Beast Valley, every minute and every second was a race against time to seize opportunities. Most people wouldn't want to bring along a burden like that.

"No big deal," Li Minghan muttered. With a wave of his hand, the Chishan Dragon appeared. Its majestic body gently lay down on the ground, and its head, which had been held high, lowered in front of the two of them. The dragon's body rose and fell.

"Truly majestic, with awe-inspiring dragon power. Minghan, you must nurture him well."

Yu Changsheng gently stroked the head of the Chishan Dragon, his gaze filled with emotion. He truly hadn't expected that the pangolin he had casually raised would eventually have such an opportunity to evolve into this form.

All I can say is that it has found the right owner.

Chishan Yalong did not resist Yu Changsheng's caresses. His eyes were gentle, and he even rubbed against Yu Changsheng in a very affectionate way. His dragon eyes, which were like lanterns, showed human-like liking and gratitude.

Clearly, he still remembered Yu Changsheng, the person who initially changed his fate. If Yu Changsheng hadn't allowed his bloodline to complete its first advancement, none of the rest would have happened.

Moreover, Yu Changsheng himself possessed an aura that it liked, making it feel naturally close to him.

This aura is both an innate physical constitution and the result of cultivating the Myriad Spirits Technique.

"It has only just advanced and hasn't fully evolved yet, but it will be soon."

Li Minghan chuckled, looking at Chishan Yalong with a smug expression on his face. Then, he was slightly puzzled. Why did he feel that his beast was still affectionate and fond of Yu Changsheng?

"Red Mountain Dragon, with unlimited potential."

Yu Changsheng nodded, and Li Minghan helped him up, and with a light leap, they jumped onto the head of the Chishan Dragon.

Yu Changsheng rode on the back of the Chishan Dragon, surrounded by layers of yellow and red light shields. These shields not only stabilized his body but also protected him from the strong winds during flight.

"Chishan Yalong, let's go."

Li Minghan chuckled and lightly stomped his foot on the head of the Chishan Dragon. In an instant, the Chishan Dragon roared, stretched its body, and soared into the sky. Li Minghan, dressed in a white robe that fluttered in the wind, stood on the dragon's head, his feet seemingly rooted to the ground, motionless, with a calm smile and boundless pride.

"hold head high!!"

The roar of the Crimson Mountain Dragon resounded through the sky. Its body slithered eastward at incredible speed. Yu Changsheng lay on its back, while Li Minghan stood atop its head, transforming into a dragon-riding youth—a truly dashing sight.

"That's really classy."

Yu Changsheng glanced enviously at Li Minghan, whose white robes fluttered in the wind, muttered something to himself, and then, imagining himself riding on the Crimson Serpent and crawling on the ground, he shuddered and quickly shook his head and exhaled.

He's a dragon-riding youth, what am I? A snake-riding hero?

The Chishan Dragon moved with incredible speed, and in no time, it left the vicinity of Sijian Cliff, flew out of the ten-thousand-acre stone forest, and reached its edge, where a faint white mist once again enveloped the surroundings...

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

With a howling wind, the Red Mountain Dragon slowed down considerably after re-entering the white mist. Its dragon body moved swiftly through the mist, its mighty dragon awe-inspiring intimidating any villains within. A faint yellow-red light shield appeared, isolating it from the fierce gale.

Chishan Yalong sped eastward at a moderate speed, with white mist swirling around him. Occasionally, mist beasts would appear, but Li Minghan would quickly defeat them and collect their essence.

They traveled along, stopping frequently, killing mist beasts on one side and searching for Zhang Tianwen's whereabouts on the other. Before they knew it, half a day had passed, and night fell once again over the secret realm.

A faint blood moon reappeared in the sky, and the surrounding white mist once again turned blood red. Li Minghan frowned, watching this scene warily, and slowed down even more.

Under the shroud of the Blood Moon, the mist beasts within the Illusionary Mist Beast Valley will enter a berserk state, posing an even greater threat. This is no longer a secret. Fortunately, the mist beasts are only more violent, but their cultivation level remains unchanged.

Although it's a bit tricky, it shouldn't be a problem if you're careful.

"Roar! Ro ...

Just as Li Minghan silently slowed down, a tiger's roar echoed from a distance, carrying a strong sense of power, resounding through the sky and clearly reaching Li Minghan's ears.

"This is..." Li Minghan was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy. "The roar of the Divine Tiger, it seems to be Senior Brother Zhang."

Li Minghan's eyes lit up with joy, and he breathed a sigh of relief. A smile appeared on his face as he controlled the Red Mountain Dragon to fly towards the source of the sound. He turned his head and chuckled as he looked at Yu Changsheng on the dragon's back...

"Chang Sheng, Zhang..."

The sound stopped abruptly halfway through.

Seeing that there was no one on the dragon's back, Li Minghan was completely dumbfounded.

Where are they?!

The dragon's back was completely empty; there wasn't a single person in sight.

"Holy crap, no way! They were just here a moment ago, how could they have disappeared without me even noticing?"

Li Minghan was dumbfounded and couldn't help but swear. He hurriedly looked around. Chishan Yalong was equally anxious, and the sound of dragon roars echoed, surging blood mist in all directions.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

No matter how Li Minghan investigated, amidst the surging blood mist, there was not a trace of Yu Changsheng. It was as if he had vanished from this world without a sound.

"We're doomed..."

Li Minghan was pale and collapsed to the ground.

The commotion attracted the attention of others. A moment later, a long rainbow streaked across the sky and slowly dissipated, revealing Zhang Tianwen's figure within.

"Li Minghan? It's you."

Zhang Tianwen was surprised, but lowered his guard and smiled.

"Senior Brother Zhang..."

Li Minghan looked up at Zhang Tianwen with a mournful face.

"Hmm?" Zhang Tianwen raised an eyebrow, then frowned slightly, revealing a hint of displeasure. "Why the long face? What happened?"

Li Minghan blinked, looking aggrieved, "I lost Changsheng..."

"What?!"

…………

On the other side, the stars were shining brightly. After a dizzying moment, Yu Changsheng shook his head to suppress the dizziness in his mind and opened his eyes somewhat groggily.

Before me lay a vast expanse of open space, beneath my feet, clouds and mist drifted and swirled, and looking up, I saw countless stars, their brilliance flowing silently through the air like mercury. The scene was serene and breathtakingly beautiful, and at that moment, my heart was at peace.

Forgetting to appreciate the beautiful scenery, Yu Changsheng frowned, somewhat bewildered.

"Wasn't I on the dragon's back? What happened?"

Just now, in the instant the blood moon hung high, and the surrounding white mist transformed into blood mist, the void twisted, and invisible fluctuations spread throughout everything. Yu Changsheng did not notice this when he opened his eyes; he only felt dizzy and that's how he arrived here.

"call……"

After carefully observing his surroundings, Yu Changsheng gasped. This place looked so familiar; it was the unknown place he had unintentionally visited before.

"We meet again. You carry his scent."

A voice, like a great bell, rang out, echoing throughout the land and creating ripples.

The voice, ancient and deep, with strange syllables, transformed into a terrifying wave, crashing into Yu Changsheng's mind and spirit, like countless thunderclaps exploding in his ears.

"Buzzing..."

In just one exchange, Yu Changsheng experienced tinnitus, blood gushing from his nose and ears, and his previously barely maintained condition began to falter again.

"puff……"

A mouthful of blood sprayed into the void. Yu Changsheng gasped for breath and turned his head with difficulty. The void in front of him distorted, and layers of clouds and mist swept away, finally revealing a huge beast.

This behemoth was like a mountain range. Yu Changsheng was like an ant in front of it. The tortoise shell on its back seemed to rise to the sky, and a giant snake coiled on it, connected to the tortoise shell.

The mere wisp of its aura caused the void to rumble, cracks to appear, and chains of laws to take root from the endless distance, encircling the beast's limbs. Furthermore, endless lightning relentlessly bombarded its massive body.

A thick aura of death emanated from its body, while an immense pressure surged towards Yu Changsheng. The beast's breath unleashed a boundless storm that swept towards Yu Changsheng.

It was this creature that spoke human language, and a glimmer of clarity flashed in its murky eyes as it looked at Yu Changsheng. Its gaze seemed to see through people's hearts, and all secrets were meaningless in its presence.

"senior……"

Yu Changsheng lay sprawled on the ground, his bones cracking and creaking under the oppressive force. With a forced lift of his head, he gritted his teeth, his face contorted with bitterness, his eyes bloodshot.

Already severely injured and still recovering, Yu Changsheng was utterly powerless to resist this situation.

"That's enough! You know he's not that person."

Just as Yu Changsheng was swaying precariously, his body seemingly about to explode, and his mind a complete mess, the void rippled like water, and a figure slowly emerged. With a wave of his hand, a gentle force appeared, blocking Yu Changsheng's path and dispelling the oppressive aura.

"Master..."

Yu Changsheng slightly opened his eyelids, peeking at the newcomer through a crack, and murmured softly.

"Oh, my child, you've suffered so much."

Old Wei sighed softly, a kind smile appearing on his aged face. His gaze softened as he gently lifted Yu Changsheng, his palm flashing with white light, which transformed into streams of heat flowing into Yu Changsheng's body.

"Cough cough cough..."

Yu Changsheng coughed twice, and all his injuries were healing at an astonishing speed. Before long, he was basically back to normal. Some of the hidden injuries from his battle with Yang Chengxu were also completely eliminated under Elder Wei's healing.

"Wei Zhenggui, you've finally appeared. He really is your disciple." (End of Chapter)
