The Empress waved her hand. "No need for formalities." The Three Immortals rose to their feet.
The woman from the Ninth Heaven said, "Just now, the Three Immortals were in my temple, sweeping the courtyard. "You are both cultivators of the Immortal Dao, and will become Immortals sooner or later. When we meet again in the Heavenly Court, you will have eternal blessings and your lifespan will be with the heavens, and it will be a glorious occasion."
The reason why the Three Immortals wholeheartedly trained was so that they could achieve Immortal Ascension. Upon hearing that the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens was destined for Immortal Ascension, they couldn't help but feel surprised and happy.
Guigu Xuance asked: "I don't know when this commoner will be able to embark on the Immortal Path, I beg of you to enlighten me." The Nine Heavens Enchantress smiled and said, "Whether or not we can become immortal is up to everyone. One couldn't meditate on the Grand Dao, but could instead train for a thousand years. If one was able to comprehend the great Dao, one would be able to achieve Immortal Ascension with but a single thought. " Qi Bai from the Three Immortals asked, "What is the Great Way?"
The Nine Heavens enigmatic woman smiled as she recited, "The Dao is the Dao, the very Dao." A name could be called, but not a name. The beginning of the heavens and earth, the origin of all things. The mother of all things. So often there is no desire to see; often there is desire to see its name, the same name, the same name, the same name, the mysterious, the door of all wonders, the eternal. As a result, those who were able to live for a long time were able to live on their own. To be before the body of a saint; to be before the body of a saint. It is not selfless or evil, so it can only be used for personal gain. "
The three of them had not only read this scripture a thousand times, they had also memorized it. This time, it was personally spoken by the woman from the Ninth Heaven. It sounded like a heavenly melody, with a unique depth to it. The three of them had different levels of cultivation, so they had different feelings for each other.
After the woman from the ninth heaven finished reading, she asked, "Do you understand now?" Revered Mr. Huangshi and Chi Songzi's faces revealed confusion, as though they didn't understand what was going on. Only Guigu Xuance revealed a smile and bowed.
The Nine Heavens enigmatic woman sighed, "Huang Shi Chi Song, the two of you still need to cultivate for a few hundred years before you can enter the Immortal Class. Ghost Valley, are you ready? " Guigu Xuance respectfully said: "We are willing to follow the decree of the Empress, to sacrifice our lives for the justice, and not refuse."
The mysterious woman from the Ninth Heaven said, "Alright! "Green Calyx, go get that yellow wine." A girl dressed in green respectfully said, "As you command." With that, his body suddenly froze and did not move at all. It was as if he had turned into a statue once again.
In less than an incense's time, the girl suddenly woke up with a jolt. In her hand was a three-foot-tall wine jar.
The three of them had all seen this wine jar before, it was the wine that the Snake Mother Fey had prepared to poison the huge snake with. It turned out that the deity servant Green Calyx, in this period of time, had reached the location of the Snake Mother Spirit Demoness with her primordial spirit and brought over a jar of wine.
Chi Songzi and the Revered Mr. Huangshi looked at each other in dismay. They didn't know what the Nine Heavens Demoness was trying to do, and furthermore, they didn't know what Guigu Xuance had comprehended.
Guigu Xuance laughed out loud, opening up the seal, lifting up the three foot tall wine jar, he wanted to pour it into his mouth. The Revered Mr. Huangshi asked in shock, "Fellow Taoist of the Ghost Valley, what are you doing?"
Guigu Xuance stopped drinking and with a stern expression, he recited this sentence. As he spoke, he continued to pour the wine.
Revered Mr. Huangshi and Chi Songzi immediately understood, "So Guigu Xuance wanted to drink the yellow wine and use his own body to feed the huge snake! So this was the intention of the Empress of the Nine Heavens Profound Goddess when she read out those words just now.
Because their cultivation were not high enough, Revered Mr. Huangshi and Chi Songzi were unable to figure out the profound mysteries within in time, and thus did not understand. Guigu Xuance's mind was the same, once he understood it, he would agree to use himself as bait to poison the snake.
Revered Mr. Huangshi and Chi Songzi heard the meaning behind Guigu Xuance's words. It was as if after being swallowed by the snake, although their flesh would be destroyed, they could immediately become immortals. Revered Mr. Huangshi and Chi Songzi had already begun to peek at the way of immortality, so they naturally did not put this body in their eyes, and could not help but feel regret in their hearts, "Just now, why couldn't I comprehend the profoundness of the Nine Heavens Profound Goddess? If he could comprehend its meaning, then wouldn't he be like Old Daoist Ghost Valley and become an immortal? I heard from the Empress of the Ninth Heaven that she still needed to cultivate for a few hundred years before she could enter the Immortal Class.
Seeing their vexed expressions, the Nine Heavens enigmatic woman knew what the two were thinking and said with a smile, "There is a heaven's will behind all of this. The fact that the two of you are unable to penetrate the mysteries of my words is a definite fact. Because there will be an even greater calamity between the two of you, and this calamity will fall upon both of you. "
Revered Mr. Huangshi and Chi Songzi asked in astonishment, "A greater calamity?"
Guigu Xuance stopped to drink, and laughed out loud: "Immortal Uncle, wasn't your Divine Axe used to dispel the calamity? If they were all fed to the snakes, who would be able to deal with the calamity? "
Revered Mr. Huangshi understood what the Nine Heavens Demoness said, and thought to himself that Old Man Ghost Valley's comprehension was still the best. He then asked the Nine Heavens enigmatic woman, "When the heavens bestowed upon me the divine axe, an ancient text suddenly appeared. "Please enlighten me, Empress. What do you mean by these two sentences?" Chi Songzi also asked, "Empress Dowager Xuan, since you want to deal with that calamity, why did the heavens bestow upon me the Immortal Uncle Divine Axe but not any treasure to bring down the demons?"
The Empress of the Ninth Heaven smiled and said, "This is heaven's will and cannot be said openly. Once this battle ends, all three of them will be unable to escape. Among which, the two of you should be aware of it in the future, so the two of you should wait for Ghost Valley's Taoist Priest to drink the medicinal wine before going to kill the snake. " Revered Mr. Huangshi and Chi Songzi bowed and said, "We shall follow the decree of the Empress."
The mysterious woman from the Ninth Heaven said, "The snake has been found, the True Dragon is about to appear. The three of you, go and kill that beast, do not hesitate. " The three deities replied respectfully, "Yes!"
As soon as the Empress finished speaking, a puff of blue smoke rose up into the air. The lanterns and candles all around the room were extinguished, and the room instantly dimmed. The Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman and the two azure-dressed female attendants once again turned into three clay statues. The three deities prostrated themselves on the ground.
Guigu Xuance stood up, and said: "The Empress has already made an order for the snake to be found, let's not kowtow, killing the snake is more important!" Hearing that, Chi Songzi and the Revered Mr. Huangshi stood up together.
Guigu Xuance lifted up the jar of wine and poured it into his mouth. In a while, he had already poured half of the jar. The Revered Mr. Huangshi said worriedly: "Fellow Taoist of the Ghost Valley, are you okay after drinking so much wine?" Guigu Xuance said: "It's fine. That snake's body was too big. This Penniless Priest didn't know if he could poison that huge snake. This Penniless Priest can use the Mystical Arts to suppress the power of alcohol. However, I need to find the snake as soon as possible.
As he spoke, he filled his stomach with the other half of the wine. When the jar of wine entered his stomach, Guigu Xuance's stomach had already swelled up, like a ball, and his face was flushed red.
The Revered Mr. Huangshi laughed: "Fellow Taoist of the Ghost Valley, how did you turn into this?" Chi Songzi 'hush', and said: "Immortal Uncle, Yin Sou, in order to get rid of that evil creature, is currently resisting the power of alcohol. It is extremely uncomfortable, how can you be in the mood to tease me?" The Revered Mr. Huangshi said apologetically: "Yes, yes, no. Ghost Valley, Yellowstone has offended you. "
Guigu Xuance staggered to the door of the temple, pushed it open and said: "There isn't much time, let's quickly go search for the snake trail."
When the three immortals came out, they saw Han Huaichu and Ji Feng squatting on the ground, surrounding a bonfire, roasting rabbit meat. Han Huaichu saw that his master's face was flushed red and the smell of alcohol permeating the air, he asked in shock: "Master, what's wrong?"
Revered Mr. Huangshi laughed out loud and said, "Your master drank the yellow wine and was about to use his own body to feed the snake."
Hearing that, Han Huaichu jumped up in shock: "Master, why are you like this?"
Guigu Xuance smiled and said: "Master has received the decree from the empress of the nine heavens, to use his body to feed a snake, is about to become an immortal."
Han Huaichu replied with an "Oh", his mouth formed a circle, he did not know what that meant.
Chi Songzi said with a stern expression, "Just now, the Empress of Xuanyuan showed herself to be a saint. Your master had poured all of his profound strength into his life and death plan and attempted to use his own body to poison the huge snake. Since their bodies are destroyed, they can transform and ascend to the Immortal Realm. This is a blessing that the My Daughter could not even think of. " So he told Han Huaichu what happened in the temple just now.
Hearing that, Han Huaichu was surprised.
The legendary Black Maiden had actually become a saint, and his own master had also used his body to feed the snake, about to become an immortal. In the history of the Sect Leader, they had all hoped to be able to reach immortality on the path of immortality, but the only one who could reach immortality was Wang Feng. Now that he heard that his master was about to become an immortal, he couldn't help but ask disappointedly, "Master, then doesn't that mean that Apprentice won't be able to see you again?"
Ghost Valley Xuan Ce patted Han Huai Chu's back, smiled and said," Foolish disciple, don't be sad. There will always be a day like this. However, Master has yet to establish a successor. Han Xin, if you want to cultivate in the Immortal Dao, you can take on my mantle and expand our sect. If you do not wish to cultivate immortality, you must help me find a successor.
Guigu Xuance was the fifth generation Sect Leader of the Zongheng Family and had not revealed his successor yet. The《 Fourteen Spells of Ghost Valley》 was still in Han Xin's hands, and he was planning to settle the matter so that Han Xin could pass the《 Fourteen Spells of Ghost Valley》 to the next Sect Leader.
Han Huaichu knew what his master's heart was thinking and said tearfully: "I will follow Master's orders."
Just as he was speaking, he heard a cry of alarm from the air. It was the sound of the two cranes. Chi Songzi's face changed, and said: "Not good, the crane has already met that evil creature, do not be harmed by it, let's go and rescue it."
Not long after that, two gigantic cranes flew towards the Mystic Maiden Temple, stumbling and looking to be in a very sorry state. It turned out that these two cranes were actually searching for food in the mountain forest. With its sharp eyes, it could see the large snake from afar. It was coiled in a mountain stream, hibernating without moving. A pair of lantern-sized eyes shone with a frightful cold light in the night. Due to the relocation of the villagers, the big snake had not eaten human flesh for a long time. Its stomach was very hungry. As it was addicted to eating human flesh, it was no longer interested in the wild beasts and flying beasts in the mountains. Just by looking at the cranes, they could tell that they were Chi Songzi's chariots, and wanted to suddenly attack, giving the two cranes a fierce attack.
But the crane had already noticed the big snake, so it turned and ran. The big snake leaped a few hundred feet into the air, spitting out a mouthful of red mist towards the two cranes. When the cranes smelled the red mist, they felt dizzy and powerless. This pair of cranes were still holding on. They flew to a place where the serpent couldn't reach, and then they started to stagger back to the temple.
Chi Songzi waited for the crane to land before stepping forward and asking, "Crane, did you find that evil creature?" The two cranes seemed to understand human language, they nodded continuously and Chi Songzi asked, "Where is the big snake now?" The crane turned its head and pointed in a direction.
Guigu Xuance said: "Let this humble one have a look." He immediately condensed his Primordial Spirit and used the "Oversight" technique. His pair of divine eyes shined brilliantly as he followed the direction pointed out by the crane head and headed straight into the depths of the forest. Guigu Xuance looked at it for a while, then said: "That evil creature is currently in the mountain stream, this humble one will be going first."
With a "plop", Han Huaichu knelt on the ground and called out, "Master!" Tears welled up in his eyes when he thought about how his master was going to be anointed with a snake's kiss, which was the end of his relationship with master and disciple.
