Troubles piled up. It seemed that the throne was getting further and further away from him, and the tragic life was getting closer and closer to him.
Zi Xing had yet to come up with a good plan to turn the situation around when he suddenly encountered a person who was very likely to be his " savior." His thoughts were instantly revived.
He rushed to the old man's side and personally helped him up.
From a close distance, he could see the appearance of Immortal Taiyi. He was plump and had a red face. He looked like Tang Guoqiang, who specialized in acting as the great leader of emperors and generals in the future. Zi Xing couldn't help but discuss in her heart. Aren't immortals able to use spells to change their appearance? This Taiyi is really unprofessional. No matter how you look at it, you don't look like someone who's used to living in poverty. Why are you pretending to be a "bad old man"?
However, the other party had a noble status. Since Immortal Tai Yi wanted to pretend, Zi Xing could only accompany him to the end.
"Old man, did my horse scare you?”
"This young benefactor is truly a kind person. Hehe, you have already passed my test. This old Daoist is prepared to form a good relationship with you."
Zi Xing felt dizzy. This so-called "test" was too, too, too…(omitted the same 10,000 words) old-fashioned, right?
Moreover, the first thing this Grand Unity said was that he was "testing" you. too exposed| Bones, right?
If he hadn't confirmed the identity of the other party through the "frame", Zi Xing would have really regarded Taiyi Taoist as a swindler in Jianghu.
Eh, wait a minute. Even if Taiyi came to him and asked for "good karma", it should be for "Nezha". Why was she pestering him?
In any case, Nezha's "good fate" was almost his "good fate". Zi Xing, who understood the great righteousness, pointed at Nezha and reminded Immortal Tai Yi,""Look carefully. Your fate with this person might be deeper, right?”
Immortal Tai Yi glanced at Nezha and shook his head like a wavy drum." My fate with this female benefactor is just ordinary. It's not worth mentioning. It's very, very shallow, close to zero…"
Zi Xing was stunned.
He stuttered,"Look carefully. Why do I feel that you and Nezha are destined to be master and disciple..."
"This is too ridiculous." " Not to mention that this female benefactor's cultivation method is not weaker than mine," Grand Unity shouted." It's also exactly the opposite of mine. She doesn't need to be my disciple at all." Even if she has never practiced mo skills, I will not take her as my disciple…"
"Why?" Meng Xing Tong felt strange and interrupted.
She thought that in the cultivation world, there would be many "great teachers" who would fight to take a child with such good aptitude and high level as Nezha as their disciple.
The deep impression that Taiyi gave Zi Xing was that he was a "blabbermouth".
In front of all the women, he made a declaration that belittled women,"This poor priest has long made a heavy oath to never take any female disciples in this life."
Xiao Lian was a little unhappy when she heard this and criticized, Of course, she had learned the term 'sexism' from the 'knowledgeable' King Shou.
"Not really." Taiyi didn't get angry at an ordinary girl like Xiao Lian.
He put on an exaggerated expression that said,"One misstep leads to eternal regret."(Seeing this expression, Zi Xing knew that this old Taoist's "seriousness" was limited.）
Taiyi said to Xiao Lian in a "heartbroken" manner,"In the past, This Penniless Priest once took in an 'orphan girl' who was about your age as his disciple. It was unbearable to recall the past. In the end, she even gave birth to a cute daughter for me. Later, she and I had a major disagreement over one matter and fell out. She took her daughter back to her mother's house and never returned. I was disheartened and swore that I would never take in a female disciple again.”
Zi Xing was completely shocked by this simple love story that only had " branches " and no " details."
Zi Xing's greatest gain from listening to this "love story framework" was that he finally confirmed the greatest characteristic of Taiyi-it was to speak without restraint and to be unkempt.
Taiyi's play was considered an old-fashioned reserved play in Zixing's previous life. It had a special name called " Teacher and Student "| Love." In the Shang Dynasty, this should be a taboo that few people dared to challenge, right? Not only did Taiyi put it into action, but he also spread the news to everyone. This guy is really an idiot
Oh, A, B, C, D, A, B, C, D. Didn't "B" equate to "2"? Immortal Taiyi was also Immortal Taier. This nickname was really fitting.
But the women were only interested in love stories. They didn't find the story of Taiyi cliché. Not only did they forgive Taiyi's extreme practice of not accepting female disciples, but they also gossiped about the reason why Taiyi had a falling out with his wife.
"My wife is a demon," Taiyi sighed. When I taught her our sect's cultivation technique, I repeatedly warned her: She could not pass it on to her clansmen. He didn't expect her to agree on the surface, but in the end, she still taught him privately.”
……
Zi Xing was not in the mood to listen to Taiyi's melodramatic love story.
Was Nezha going to lose a famous teacher and a big backer because he caught up with the trend of "feminization"?
However, why did Immortal Taiyi, who had sworn not to accept female disciples, deliberately cut off a path to "block" them?
Zi Xing refused to believe that it was a "coincidental encounter".
"Could it be that you came for me?" When Zi Xing thought of this possibility, she felt a little smug.
"Old man, we are all smart people. Let's not talk about fate. Why are you looking for me?" Zi Xing stared at Grand Unity's square face with bright eyes.
"It's refreshing to talk to smart people.”
Immortal Tai Yi praised Zi Xing before returning to the main topic,"Young man, although this Penniless Priest doesn't know your identity, I can tell from your face that your life is coming to an end. At most, you won't live for more than a year and eight months.”
Was she cursing him?
If Zi Xing did not care about the other party's identity, he would have turned hostile long ago.
Meng Xingtong had been practicing medicine for so many years and had been paying close attention to Zi Xing's identity. She had long seen that Zi Xing had fallen ill after this reunion. At this moment, Taiyi confirmed her worries and could not help but ask,"This old man must be a cultivator. Was there a way to treat Zixin's hidden illness?”
Zi Xing was stunned, even Meng Xing Tong thought that he was sick?
Hmm, thinking about it carefully, he had been powerless ever since he came out of the game space. If he didn't drink Morning Dew Wine, he would be like a patient suffering from myalgia gravis.
Before Ao Guang, the Dragon Lord of the Eastern Seas, was beheaded, he seemed to have said that after he did that with Princess Long Ji, he would fall for a vicious technique called the Nine Serenities Ten Soul Devouring Technique.
Could it be that the root was here?
Thinking of this, Zi Xing put away the underestimation he felt after seeing Taiyi's sloppiness.
Zi Xing said to Tai Yi with hope,"Perfected One, this little king is the third son of the Great Shang Emperor Di Yi. His title is King Shou. Could it be that you have taken a fancy to my rare talent and want to take me as your disciple? Hehe, this is negotiable, this is negotiable.”
He thought to himself,'If I have a cheap master like you, you won't just watch me fart after' one year and eight months', right?' What good is it for you to take in a short-lived disciple?
Who knew that after Tai Yi glanced at him, he said with a slanted brow,"Your talent is not bad, but I have seen many people with such talent in the Heaven Realm. I haven't considered taking in a disciple yet. This Penniless Priest has come to find you to ask you to save someone.”
Zi Xing almost died from anger.
This old man's logic was rather chaotic. He predicted that he would not live for more than two years, and at the same time, he asked him to save people.
Someone that even an immortal like you couldn't save must be very difficult to deal with. Can a mortal like me save her?
Deciding that I won't live long, I want to do it once and for all| Even if you squeeze my remaining value dry, it shouldn't be like this, right? Zi Xing muttered.
Grand Unity's old eyes seemed to have seen through Zi Xing's thoughts. He smiled faintly and finally said something that sounded like an immortal."Don't worry. I invited you to save him because I wanted you to have a chance to save yourself.”
"Ah, the old Taoist priest can really give Zixin a way out.”"Please enlighten me." Meng Xing Tong was pleasantly surprised.”
" By the way, I'm also from a large cultivation sect. There's a magic treasure passed down from generation to generation in my sect…" Taiyi didn't answer Xing Tong's words and continued to speak.
"Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield?" Zi Xing asked.
"Ha, so this Third Prince has already seen through my identity. Good eyesight. But you didn't guess correctly. The Dharma treasure passed down by his sect was not the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield, but the Sun Gold Brick. This brick was not famous, but its origin was extraordinary. It was forged from the fragments of the sun. In the past, the Great Shaman Kuafu, in order to absorb the Ultimate Yang Yuan Power to cultivate the supreme demonic technique, chased after the 'sun' which was the parent body of this gold brick. In the end, it ended in failure…"
"Sun gold bricks are the fragments of the sun. It didn't seem to be that powerful.”
Zi Xing could tell that this Taiyi was a person who despised secular etiquette, so he asked,"I remember a legend circulating among the people. There was once a time when ten suns appeared in the sky. In the end, the human hero Hou Yi shot down nine of them with his divine bow. This gold brick of yours was the fragment you picked up at that time, right?”
Even a cynical person like Taiyi was angered by him.
Did he think that his sect's ancestor was a "junk picker"?
"Pei, the ten days you mentioned was the son of the Heavenly Emperor. My gold brick is a fragment of the sun from the primeval era. After the sun exhausted Kuafu to death, it mysteriously disappeared. Later, in order to win the hearts of the people in the human world, the Celestial Thearch appointed his ten sons to take turns to send sunlight to the human world…"
"Understood. That 'Sun Gold Brick' of yours, wasn't it the trash that Hou Yi shot to pieces?”Zi Xing nodded.
"Of course it can't be those trash.”Taiyi emphasized.
"But why are you suddenly talking about the origin of the Sun Gold Brick? I don't understand."
"I've already made things so clear, but you still don't understand?”"You're under the 'Nine Serenities Ten Soul Devouring Grand Technique', right?" Tai Yi glared at him. The principle of this secret technique was similar to the 'secret technique of voodoo' in Miao Jiang. However, what invaded your body wasn't a Gu worm, but a Soul Devouring Worm refined from ten extremely cold and Yin objects from the six worlds. These Soul Devouring Insects are temporarily suppressed by some unknown power in your body. But according to my estimation, that nameless power can only suppress the Soul Devouring Insects for one year and eight months at most, so you can only live for another year and eight months at most…"
" Soul Devouring Insects are extremely cold, and your Sun Gold Brick is its nemesis…" Zi Xing finally understood.
Zi Xing suddenly jumped up and grabbed Tai Yi's hands, saying sincerely,""Master, we are fated to have a good relationship between master and disciple. Regardless of whether you accept it or not, I have to acknowledge you as my master. If Master wants me to save someone, just tell me…"
"My sect's magic treasure, the 'Sun Gold Brick,' was stolen by a magical demon not long ago," Grand Unity said slowly.
Zi Xing's expression froze.
Zi Xing sized up Tai Yi suspiciously and thought," This old man wouldn't come here just to make fun of me, right?
"It's true." "That demon fox actually swallowed the 'Sun Gold Brick' into its stomach…" Taiyi sighed.
"Please. Don't be so exaggerated. As you said, the Sun Gold Brick is a fragment of the Primordial Day. The high temperature released by the Day of Desolation could kill Kuafu. The temperature of the sun fragment should be able to kill an immortal easily, right? "You were even swallowed by the demon fox. You're not reliable at all," Zi Xing said coldly.
When Taiyi mentioned this, he was also very depressed."That's why I said it was a 'magical' goblin.”
"Did the demon fox really swallow the Sun Gold Brick?”
"Why would I lie to you?"
"Then why aren't you going to catch that demon fox and retrieve the gold bricks?”
Zi Xing suddenly thought of a possibility and asked,""Don't tell me you want me to capture that demon fox for you?”
"That demon fox was born with a special talent," Taiyi said with a smile."It was incredible that it could swallow a gold brick." However, it would not be easy for her to refine this brick. One of the key conditions was to find a person with an extreme Yin and cold physique to cooperate with her. At this stage, you, King Shou, are the most suitable candidate. Only with you can we get close to that cunning fox demon.”
Fine, she was using him as bait.
At this moment, Meng Xingtong, who was listening in, noticed something that was not logical. She could not help but ask,"Daoist Master, with your abilities, why do you have to go through so much trouble to capture that demon fox? You asked Zixin to save lives, could it be that you want to save that demon fox? Aren't you angry that it stole your Sun Gold Brick?”
After Meng Xingtong's reminder, Zi Xing also found it strange." There were people in the world who would repay evil with good, but Taiyi didn't seem like such a person.
When Xing Tong mentioned this, a rare look of anger appeared on Tai Yi's face.
"That demon fox has been sentient for a long time. It had spent ten years planning the operation to steal the gold bricks, and every detail had been carefully considered. She even found out that I have a daughter and her whereabouts…"
"After Demonic Fox stole the gold bricks, she held your daughter hostage?”Meng Xing Tong asked.
"If that's the case, how can you threaten me for long?”"This demon fox actually possessed my daughter." Taiyi said angrily. She even knows how to threaten me,'Don't push her too far, or else we'll all die together…'"
" This 'demon fox' is indeed scheming…"
"Sigh, the demon fox has already transformed into a human form and has been living in the human world for many years. He didn't learn the good ones, but instead, he learned the cunning and cunning habits of humans. Yes, she even gave herself a human name, something like 'Daji'…"
Daji?
Hearing this name, the other women didn't react at all.
Zi Xing felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
