Chapter 164: Disease without symptoms
Looking at the gray-haired, hunchbacked man in front of him, Li Changxiao sighed, feeling mixed emotions in his heart, unable to tell what he was feeling.
Li Changxiao treated him as an old friend and had already prepared two glasses of wine. He waved his hand and made room for an empty seat beside him. Zhang Tian, who could be considered old, also walked over slowly and took the wine handed over by the swordsman.
When they first met, he was still a teenager, and when they met again, he was already old. Zhang Tian had complicated feelings, thinking back to when he was young and tried to become an immortal, he accidentally entered a cave that enshrined an evil god. A smile appeared on his face. Now, thinking back, he was afraid that it was this swordsman who made a move in secret that day.
The swordsman did not deny this. Zhang Tian sighed repeatedly, praying for the immortal, but he never thought that the immortal was right beside him. He counted his years on his fingers and joked that in today's chaotic world, I can be considered a long-lived person.
He asked a question that had been in his mind for a long time: Are there really immortals in this world?
Li Changxiao pondered for a long time and replied, "Maybe not."
The two chatted all night.
Zhang Tian was like a child, pestering Li Changxiao to tell him interesting stories in the martial arts world and wanted to hear about some stories about immortals.
Li Changxiao also spoke. He told Zhang Tian that the immortals in the world were in an awkward situation now. In order to prolong their lives, they tried their best and many of them even resorted to cannibalism.
This happened one night. Zhang Tian fell asleep at some point. The swordsman blew a breath and blew Zhang Tian from the top of the mountain into his room, and then gently laid him on the bed.
He did not stay long, but left straight away leading the donkey.
When Zhang Tian woke up, it was already noon. He glanced at the top of Laopan Mountain and quickly looked away. He had already let this matter go and thought it was all a dream.
......
......
Nine years of seeking change.
Li Changxiao held several Buddhist books and studied ghosts.
All monks have the responsibility to seek reforms.
Although Li Changxiao has no worries about his lifespan, he is still doing research. It's just that his comprehension is limited, and he dares not easily share his findings, for fear of making others laugh.
He sank into his mind and entered the dream space.
Although he has reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, the spiritual energy in his dream space is still poor. Only by picking the fruit of dreams can he deepen it a little.
Li Changxiao has sown many dream fruits.
But now I still don’t have the strength to collect them one by one. I can only wait for time to pass, or become stronger.
One day.
He was flipping through the classics as usual, studying the principles of magic contained therein, when he accidentally came across the book of Venerable Fengxue and was stunned when he saw the contents.
When Venerable Fengxue was alive, he was an elder of the Snow Sect.
The Far North Continent in the Polar Regions has a special terrain. For thousands of years, the wind and snow have never stopped, and no grass grows. Even now that the spiritual energy has been exhausted, it is still the same.
There used to be two major sects in this continent, one was the Snow Sect and the other was the Plum Blossom Peak. They were originally two evenly matched forces, but later on the Snow Sect won a great victory, killed all the members of the Plum Blossom Peak and became the sole overlord of the Far North Continent.
This is not what Li Changxiao is concerned about.
What Li Changxiao really cared about was some interesting things he saw in a book written by Master Fengxue.
The reason why Venerable Fengxue couldn't wait to use the method of possessing another's body and replacing his body was because he was ill.
He didn't know what disease he had or what the symptoms were.
But it just won't get better.
He couldn't find out the cause of the disease, couldn't do anything, and didn't know when he was infected.
That's why they stopped fighting and made plans to seize someone else's body. Otherwise, Venerable Fengxue, who could have achieved such a high level of cultivation and was also a person of outstanding talent, why would he covet someone else's body?
Most of the information about Venerable Fengxue during his lifetime is hidden in various classics. Sometimes he recorded his feelings on bamboo slips, and sometimes he wrote them next to the notes in books of magic.
This is the habit of many cultivators, and Li Changxiao is no exception. For example, the pages of his magic books "Eye of Detection" and "Wine and Fire Magic" are densely packed with his notes. He always studies them over and over again, thinking about whether there are any possibilities for improvement. He sometimes also records daily trivial matters on them. There is actually nothing special about doing so, it just allows himself to flip through them from time to time and review them to learn new things.
But now, Li Changxiao's skills have gradually increased. In his dream, he practiced the "Panlong Hand" of the Panlong Sect, which is an ordinary move. He also practiced the "Buddha Sound Break" of the Jiuxiang Temple. This move is far beyond the "Panlong Hand". Although it is not a hundred unique techniques, it is also quite powerful.
It's just that "Buddha's Sound Break" is extremely difficult, and even today, I only know the basics. Apart from these, the "Hundred Ghost Techniques" is actually used by Li Changxiao most often. This technique involves the soul and even reincarnation. In today's environment, most of its power is no longer effective, but Li Changxiao got inspiration from it and developed in the direction that suits him better.
Li Changxiao cherishes these learning opportunities very much, so he would carefully read most of the classics on him, not only himself, but also show them to Yu Luosha.
Li Changxiao often sighed that if the spiritual energy had not been exhausted, with Yu Luosha's talent, she would at least be a first-rate genius, or even more.
Whenever Yu Luosha heard this, she would smile in agreement and jokingly reply, "Of course." She accepted all the praise from the swordsman.
After following Bai Yi for a long time, her hostility gradually disappeared and her personality became much more cheerful. She also knew the current situation in the cultivation world, so she was quietly studying the reform.
But her direction is very different from that of the swordsman. The swordsman's path is the path of immortality of ghosts and gods, while she... is the most masculine and strong, and follows the path of martial arts and fighting. Her experiences in her previous life still have an impact on her. She does not hope to live forever, but only to become strong.
At night, the man, the donkey and the ghost would still often hold discussions and discuss the results with each other.
Back to the topic, the matter of Venerable Fengxue caught Li Changxiao's attention, so for several days in a row, he was reading the books of Venerable Fengxue.
Learn a little bit about his life.
Venerable Fengxue once went to Dawu Continent in Qingyu to seek treatment from the world's number one doctor, Bian Huo, for this asymptomatic disease.
However, this disease was very unusual, and the famous doctor could not diagnose it for a while. Venerable Fengxue was so angry that he cursed the doctor as a quack. Soon, his spiritual energy was exhausted.
This disease has no obvious symptoms, but Venerable Fengxue knew very well that he was ill and his illness was not mild. He listed several possible places where he had contracted the disease.
Among them, there is a country called Wa, which is located on an island near Fuyao Tianxia. It is just a tiny place and is inhabited by the Wa people, a foreign race.
I have also entered a secret realm and a dangerous place.
I have been to the tomb of the God of Dreams.
