However, the old man mentioned Chen Jingchou, and the three of them went down the mountain. Before long, they arrived home. Ran Weng brought Chen Jingchou into the room. Gu Yue placed her hands on Chen Jingchou's and Tuoba Yu 'er's heads. She closed her eyes and began to cultivate. A white mist slowly rose. Not long after, Chen Jingchou spat out a large mouthful of blood and fainted again. Tuoba Yu 'er's expression gradually improved.

After another meal, Gu Yue slowly removed her hand from the top of their heads. A few beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. "Alright! Their lives are no longer in danger." He turned around and instructed the little girl. The girl agreed and went. A moment later, she brought back two red pills. Gu Yue handed it to Yu Xiaoxue and asked her to share it with Chen Jingchou and Tuoba Yu 'er. Old Ran held Chen Jingchou and arranged another room for him to rest. Yu Xiaoxue was extremely grateful and didn't know what to say.

After resting for several days, Chen Jingchou slowly woke up. He opened his eyes and saw himself lying on the bed with a splitting headache."I…Why am I here?”He was worried about Tuoba Yu 'er's injuries and struggled to get up. He was about to get down and put on his shoes. Yu Xiaoxue heard the sound and walked into the room. She said happily,"Brother Chen, you're finally awake!" Chen Jingchou sat by the bed and rubbed his head.""Xiao Xue, I…Why am I here? Didn't I fall from the mountain?……”

"It was Old Immortal Ran Weng who saved you!" Yu Xiaoxue said. He happened to pass by the bottom of the cliff."

"Oh, why can't I remember anything?" Chen Jingchou asked.”

"You…you've been unconscious for three days," Yu Xiaoxue said.”

When Chen Jingchou heard this, he was shocked and said,""Ah! "I've been unconscious for so long. Then, Sister Yu 'Er..." As she spoke, she was about to jump out of bed. "Brother Chen, Immortal Gu Yue has already treated Sister Tuoba's injuries. She is much better now…" Yu Xiaoxue quickly stopped him.

"Immortal Gu Yue?" Chen Jingchou asked curiously.”

"Yeah!" Yu Xiaoxue said. Even Brother Chen's injuries were healed by Immortal Gu Yue!”

"What? Really?" Chen Jingchou asked. Why did he suddenly agree to help us?”

Yu Xiaoxue recalled Gu Yue's question that night. Her face was bashful as she quickly turned her head and said," Because, because he saw Brother Chen and risked his life to look for medicine for Sister Tuoba, he agreed…"

Chen Jingchou saw Xiaoxue stutter and didn't believe it. He scratched his head and said,""Is that so?"

"Yes, so thank you, Brother Chen!" Yu Xiaoxue said.”He thought of something and said," Immortal Gu Yue also said that he wanted to tell us the method to let Sister Tuoba regain her light and appearance. He told us to wait for him in the courtyard tomorrow morning."”Chen Jingchou replied. He was still worried, so he got off the bed and put on his shoes. He went to Tuoba Yu 'er's room with Yu Xiaoxue and saw her lying quietly on the bed. Her breathing was steady and she was sleeping soundly. Only then did Chen Jingchou heave a sigh of relief. He and Yu Xiaoxue gently closed the door and left.

The next day, just as dawn broke, Chen Jingchou got up from his bed and ate breakfast. He and Yu Xiaoxue went to the courtyard. Old Ran and Gu Yue stood beside the flower rack, discussing in low voices. They were already waiting there. Chen Jingchou stepped forward to thank the two of them. "Little Brother Chen, you look good!" Old Man Ran said. I didn't help much, you should thank Immortal Gu Yue!”Chen Jingchou quickly stepped forward to thank Gu Yue. "Please don't thank me. If you want to thank someone, you should thank this white-haired girl…She's willing to give up her own happiness to save her friend. It's her self-sacrificing spirit that moved me. That's why I agreed to help you."”

"Ah, Xiaoxue…" Chen Jingchou said in shock.

Ran Weng smiled and said," This little girl ran to the pavilion that night and begged Immortal Gu Yue bitterly. Her forehead was bleeding from kowtowing."”

Chen Jingchou said to Yu Xiaoxue,"Xiaoxue, it's really hard on you…I made you suffer so much!"”

"Brother Chen…I…I didn't do anything!" Yu Xiaoxue blushed.”

" Not bad, not bad…" Old Man Ran laughed." It seems that everyone's spirit has almost recovered. They have the strength to push the credit to each other!"”"Alright…Next, it's about your companions."-- If you want to cure her injuries, you will need two special items.”

"Immortal, please tell us. No matter what price we have to pay, we must go and find him."”

Gu Yue pondered for a moment before turning to Old Ran."Are you sure you can let them get it?”

"Both of you are good kids," Ran Weng said."It shouldn't be a problem. Let them try!”

"Alright…" Gu Yue nodded."The first thing you'll be taking is an immortal peach called the Blood-Dew Immortal Peach, which is located on the west side of the island, on Mount Ximu.”

"Blood-Dew Immortal Peach?" Chen Jingchou asked curiously.”

"Yes," Gu Yue replied,"this Blood-Dew Immortal Peach is an item from the immortal realm. It has a strange medicinal effect. Put it into the ancient divine artifact, the Shennong Cauldron, and refine it. It can be used to refine a medicine that can restore your companion's light and appearance.”"In other words, apart from the Peaches of Immortality, you must also obtain the ancient divine artifact, the Shennong Cauldron.”

When Chen Jingchou heard this, he was delighted and said,""What a coincidence. Immortals, the Shennong Cauldron is with me.”"You have the Shennong Cauldron?" Weng Qi asked.……”

Chen Jingchou said," That's right. This cauldron is a divine artifact passed down from generation to generation in Sister Yu 'er's tribe. It just so happens that I have it with me!"”

"Oh, what a coincidence. If that's the case, all you have to do is go to the West Mother Peak and pick the immortal peaches!"”

"Thank you, Immortals. We'll be on our way then."”

"Miasma pervades West Mother Peak all year round," Gu Yue said."I'll give you a Fire Cloud Pearl. It can be used to disperse the fog in front of the mountain, allowing you to enter the mountain smoothly."”

Chen Jingchou took it and thanked her along with Yu Xiaoxue. "There might be some tests on the mountain. As long as you face yourself honestly, I believe you can pass them smoothly."”The two of them bade farewell and were about to set off. "Oh right, there's one more thing to remember. The immortal peaches are picked by the white-haired little girl. Only then can the spirit energy be preserved. You must remember this!" Gu Yue suddenly said.”Chen Jingchou bowed and agreed, then he and Yu Xiaoxue took the road to West Mother Peak.

The two of them walked to the west of the island and crossed a few small mountains. They had already reached the foot of Ximu Peak. As expected, they saw thick fog hanging in the sky above the mountain. Both sides of the path into the mountain were blurry. He couldn't see the other side, let alone identify the path. Chen Jingchou took out the Fire Cloud Pearl and raised it above his head. When the Fire Cloud Pearl came into contact with the miasma, it immediately flashed with tens of thousands of golden lights. In the time it took to finish a cup of tea, the thick fog gradually dispersed. Chen Jingchou recognized the path and walked up the mountain with Yu Xiaoxue. The West Mother Peak had layers upon layers of steep peaks. Wildflowers bloomed all over the mountain like fire and brocade. The mountain path turns thousands of times, and the clear stream appears and disappears from time to time. The two of them spent nearly an hour before they reached the halfway point. However, they were happy and did not feel tired. Moving forward, the empty mountain was silent. The sound of water rumbled beside his ears. After turning a mountain depression, the sound was even louder. He looked up and saw a white dragon rushing down from the rock and into the deep pool. The water in the pond surged. Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue came to the edge of the deep pool. Their eyes were misty and their bodies were drenched in dew. "Ah, Brother Chen, what a beautiful waterfall!" Yu Xiaoxue said.”Droplets of water splashed everywhere. Chen Jingchou looked at the rainbow above the waterfall and said,""Yes, this waterfall is indeed magnificent!" The two of them went around the waterfall, but the path had already reached its end. "Brother Chen, there's no road ahead. What should we do?" Yu Xiaoxue asked.”Chen Jingchou raised his head and saw that the peak was faintly visible. He then looked at the mountain wall, which was filled with vines. He made up his mind and said,""Let's climb up!" Holding Yu Xiaoxue, the two of them climbed the grass and trees beside the waterfall and slowly moved up. About an hour later, the two of them finally crossed the waterfall. He took a few more steps forward and climbed up a protruding rock, reaching the peak.

The peak was an open space that was several feet wide. Beside the cliff, a peach tree stood facing the wind. When the two of them got closer, they saw that the tree was covered with branches and leaves. There was only one immortal peach, about the size of a fist, and it was completely blood-red.

"Ah, this should be the Blood-Dew Saturn Peach," said Chen Jingchou."This peach is actually red. It's so special!”Chen Jingchou turned his head and said," Little Xue, Immortal Gu Yue has specifically instructed you to pick the peaches. You can pick them now."”"Okay, Brother Chen!" Yu Xiaoxue said. " Then, it's up to me…" He walked to the peach tree, tiptoed, and held the peach fruit with both hands. He gently plucked it and put it in his pocket. The two of them were delighted and turned to leave the peak.

However, just as he took a few steps, a shocking roar suddenly came from behind him."Don't leave! Who was so bold! How dare you steal the immortal peaches of the immortal world?" Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue were both shocked. They turned around and were about to answer when a white light suddenly flashed. Yu Xiaoxue was so frightened that she covered her eyes. A moment later, the white light disappeared, and a headless monster stood beside the peach tree. It carried a shield in one hand and a huge axe in the other. "I am Xing Tian, the guardian of this mountain," he shouted. -- You stole the Saturn Peaches without my permission!”

Chen Jingchou glanced over and was shocked. Xing Tian's mouth and eyes were actually on his belly. It was indescribably strange. He composed himself and took a few steps forward. He cupped his hands and bowed."Lord Mountain God, we are here on Immortal Gu Yue's orders to pluck the Peaches of Immortality. To save a friend. Please forgive me!"

"How preposterous!" Xing Tian gasped and shouted. When did I agree to your plucking?"

"I really didn't know you were on this mountain…If I had known, I wouldn't have rashly plucked it!" Chen Jingchou said.”

"How dare you say that you don't know that I'm the Mountain God of this mountain?" Xing Tian was furious.”Before Chen Jingchou could explain, Xing Tian said angrily,""Cut the crap! If you want to take the heavenly peaches, you have to defeat me first!”He swung his axe forward.

Chen Jingchou was so close to him that he didn't expect him to attack so quickly. The huge axe suddenly slashed down with a strong wind and arrived in front of him in a moment. He didn't have time to draw his sword to block and hurriedly jumped back. The axe swept across his face. With a swoosh, a large gash appeared on Chen Jingchou's chest. Just as Chen Jingchou's feet touched the ground, Xing Tian pounced on him again. Chen Jingchou hurriedly drew his sword and parried the attack. The sword and axe clashed with a loud clang and sparks flew. Xing Tian's several quick attacks were all blocked by Chen Jing and Chou Yang's sword. He was furious and roared as he raised his axe and slashed at Yu Xiaoxue. The giant axe was extremely heavy, weighing almost 300 pounds. In addition to Xing Tian's extraordinary strength, the axe was able to split mountains and rocks, and it was about to split Yu Xiaoxue in half. Chen Jingchou had no choice but to parry with his sword and wait for the opportunity to explain things to him. However, seeing that he was merciless and actually wanted to take someone's life, he couldn't help but be furious and shout,"Be careful!" He used Flowing Cloud Slash and flew forward, stabbing at Xing Tian's back with all his might. Yu Xiaoxue was stunned. Xing Tian's axe had already hit her face and she was about to die. Xing Tian heard the sound of wind behind him and hurriedly dodged to the side, using his left hand to block the attack. Just like that, Yu Xiaoxue had already rolled away. Xing Tian was furious and slashed at the two of them.

Yu Xiaoxue also took out her iron ring and fought with him. Chen Jingchou thought to himself. If he had not defeated him today, he would not have been able to leave the mountain alive no matter what. His life would not have been in danger, but it would have delayed Tuoba Yu 'er's injuries. He used all his strength to attack Xing Tian. White shadows flew everywhere, and the sword aura was like a rainbow. Sparks flew everywhere, and the sound of swords and axes colliding could be heard. The scene was already a battle of life and death. Xing Tian wasn't afraid at all. His footwork was steady as he guarded the door tightly. He turned his axe into a huge wheel and counterattacked from time to time. Everyone fought for another hundred rounds, but Xing Tian's strength did not decrease. Instead, he became stronger and stronger. Yu Xiaoxue was already exhausted, and her moves were getting slower and slower. Chen Jingchou was secretly shocked. If this continued, they would only lose. He wasn't in a hurry to attack, but dodged left and right, waiting for an opportunity to use another move to save his stamina. Then, he focused his attention on Xing Tian's move. Xing Tian's attack was powerful and heavy, and his lower body was extremely stable, like a bronze cauldron. It was really tiring to fight head-on with him. However, its heavy body and clumsy movements were its fatal weaknesses. With a thought, his body flashed and his footwork was swift. He had already circled behind Xing Tian and reached out with his sword. Xing Tian's body was heavy and he could not turn around. He could only turn sideways and use his left hand to block the attack before turning around. Chen Jingchou waited for him to turn around and quickly leaped a few steps away. Then, he circled behind him and stabbed with his sword. Xing Tian had parried it in such a manner. At this moment, Yu Xiaoxue had also seen through Xing Tian's weakness. Chen Jingchou winked at Xing Tian, causing him to turn around. Yu Xiaoxue waited for Xing Tiangang to turn around and quickly swung the iron ring towards his chest. Xing Tian had his shield behind him and his axe in front of him. He had just turned halfway when he couldn't help but be caught in a tight spot. He quickly swung his axe to block Yu Xiaoxue's attack. Chen Jingchou seized the opportunity and hurriedly took a few steps forward. He pushed aside his shield and approached Xing Tian, striking his back with his palm. A huge gust of cold air entered Xing Tian's stomach.

Chen Jingchou's attack succeeded and he hurriedly jumped back. Xing Tian grunted and his body swayed a few times, but he did not fall to the ground. Chen Jingchou was shocked and was about to step forward to deliver another palm strike. Xing Tian suddenly threw away his giant axe and shield. He stuck out his belly and roared. The sound wave swept over, and the branches and leaves on the tree were all scraped off. He stomped on the ground with all his might. Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue only felt the earth shake and the mountains shake. They had splitting headaches and hurriedly covered their ears. Xing Tian's roars grew louder and louder, like waves that were stacked on top of each other. In Chen Jingchou's mind, it was as if thousands of ants were biting him. It was extremely uncomfortable. He barely managed to hold on for a while, and his consciousness became more and more blurry. Suddenly, his vision went black and he fainted on the ground.

When she woke up, she felt her head heavy and her whole body weak. She looked around and found that she and Yu Xiaoxue were tied to the peach tree, leaving only her hands outside. Xing Tian raised his axe and glared at him. After a while, Yu Xiaoxue also opened her eyes. "Haha, you think you can defeat me?" Xing Tian laughed sinisterly. You're still a little inexperienced!"

"You, what do you want?" Chen Jingchou asked.”

Xing Tian's face suddenly darkened. He took a step forward and shouted,"Who picked the peaches just now? I want to chop off his hands! Is it this girl?"

"I…I…" Yu Xiaoxue was afraid.

Chen Jingchou said,"I plucked it-if you want to chop it off, chop off my hand!"”

"So it's you…Alright, then I'll chop off your hands!" Xing Tian said.”He took a step forward and swung his giant axe, preparing to chop down.

"No, don't…don't cut Brother Chen's hand!" Yu Xiaoxue said in shock.”Xing Tian stopped his axe in mid-air. Yu Xiaoxue lowered her head." Peach, I picked the peach. It has nothing to do with Brother Chen…"

Xing Tian turned his axe and aimed it at Yu Xiaoxue's hands.""Very good! Since you've already admitted it, I'll cut off your hand!”He wanted to cut it down.

"Wait a minute," Chen Jingchou said anxiously,"I was the one who asked her to pluck the peach, so I'm the one in the wrong, not her!”

"Brother Chen, it was me who plucked it…If you want to chop it off, chop off my hand!" Yu Xiaoxue said.”

Xing Tian knocked on the giant axe with all his might and shouted,""So noisy…Do you think I have the time to accompany you? Tell me, who plucked it?"

Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue replied at the same time,""It's me!"

Xing Tian stroked his beard and said,""How about this? Since you guys are all fighting to admit it, I'll be fair.”

" No…" Chen Jingchou said," Xiaoxue didn't do anything wrong. Why did you chop off her hand?"”"Brother Chen!" Yu Xiaoxue said. But the peach…I really picked the peach myself!”"How annoying!" Xing Tian was furious. If you don't decide whose hand to chop off, I'll chop off all your hands!”

Chen Jingchou thought of something and said,"You can chop mine!" You're an immortal with unparalleled martial arts. How could you chop off a little girl's hands?”

Xing Tian's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. The ugly face on his belly smiled, looking even uglier."Hmm, what the little girl said makes sense. It's settled then. I'll cut off your hands!”

"Don't…Don't cut Brother Chen's hand…It's all my fault!" Yu Xiaoxue cried. I picked the peaches!" Xing Tian ignored him. He spat and raised his giant axe. Chen Jingchou closed his eyes and allowed the axe to slash down. Yu Xiaoxue's tears fell. She covered her eyes and did not dare to look anymore.

However, after waiting for a long time, the axe did not fall. There was no movement at all. All he heard was the whistling of the mountain wind. Chen Jingchou opened his eyes and saw that his hands were still there, but the rope on his body had disappeared. Looking around, the top of the mountain was empty. Xing Tian had disappeared, leaving only a peach tree swaying in the wind. He looked at Yu Xiaoxue and did not dare to open his eyes.

"Little Xue!" Chen Jingchou walked over and called out. Mountain God…Mountain God has already left!" Yu Xiaoxue slowly opened her eyes and cried,"Brother Chen…it's all my fault!”Chen Jingchou raised his hands in front of Yu Xiaoxue and smiled.""Look!"

Yu Xiaoxue felt as if she was in a dream. She gently stroked Chen Jingchou's hands and said," Then…then the immortal…" Chen Jingchou laughed."He probably saw that you were crying so sadly, so he couldn't bear to cut you!”Yu Xiaoxue's face turned red, and her teardrops reflected the afterglow of the setting sun, making her look even more charming.

Just as the two of them were about to descend the mountain, a person suddenly walked up slowly from under the rock. He laughed and said,""Good, good, good…both of you have passed!”

"Passed?" Chen Jingchou asked curiously. What was going on? Did the old immortal save us?" "No, no…Everything was just an illusion from the beginning to the end!”"Ah!" Yu Xiaoxue was surprised. How, how can this be an illusion?"

Old Ran said," The Blood-Dew Immortal Peaches belong to the Immortal Realm. Although they are entrusted to us for safekeeping, they can also be used to help others when necessary. However, the condition is that they must pass the test just now!"”"So this is the test you mentioned when we were on the mountain?" Chen Jingchou asked.”

" Yes," Old Man Ran said." If the two of you were to shift the blame to each other, then your arms would really have been cut off, and you wouldn't have been able to get the Saturn Peach. But…you two are good children. I believe that you will pass the test from the beginning to the end."”

"So that's how it is!" Chen Jingchou scratched his head.”Ran Weng continued," The Blood Dew Immortal Peach is an item from the Immortal World. Only those who know how to sacrifice for others are qualified to obtain it…Immortal Gu Yue had always been worried about you. He was afraid that you would not be able to withstand this severe test, so he did not want you to take the risk…but I repeatedly assured him that you would definitely pass, so he reluctantly agreed.”"Thank you, old immortal!" Yu Xiaoxue said.”Chen Jingchou also bowed in thanks. "No need, no need," said Old Man Ran with a smile. Which person in the world did not need help from others for their entire life? Now, with the Peaches of Immortality, your poor little companion will be able to regain his light! Let's hurry back!"

When the three of them came down the mountain and returned to Beyond the Heavens Village, it was already dark. When he entered the Ranweng House, Gu Yue was already waiting in the hall. "Immortal Gu Yue, we've already obtained the Blood-Dew Immortal Peach," said Chen Jingchou.”"Alright," Gu Yue nodded."Let's begin immediately before the immortal peaches lose their spiritual essence."”He led everyone to Tuoba Yu 'er's room.

Tuoba Yu 'er heard the voice and quickly sat up. Gu Yue stepped forward and taught her the method to regulate her breathing. Tuoba Yu 'er sat cross-legged on the bed and quietly circulated her Qi. Gu Yue turned around and had Chen Jingchou take out the Shennong Cauldron. Chen Jingchou took out the Shennong Cauldron from the Lianyao Flask. When Gu Yue saw this, she was slightly surprised."The porcelain pot you took out just now was?……”Chen Jingchou raised the Lianyao Flask and said,""Immortal, are you referring to this pot? This is an ancient divine artifact that my master gave me. It's also the heirloom of our Chen Dynasty. It's called the Demon Purification Gourd.”

Old Man Ran tilted his head and looked at him.”Gu Yue studied the Devil Refining Gourd for a while before turning to Old Ran with a smile."We are really fated to meet this pot. It has already been a thousand years, but I didn't expect that we would be able to meet again here.”

"That's right…I can't help but reminisce about the happy times we spent together in the past!"”Chen Jingchou scratched his head in confusion. Gu Yue had him put away the Devil Refining Gourd."It's almost time to start. How's Lady Tuoba's breathing?”

Tuoba Yu 'er was puzzled." I've already adjusted my breathing, but what do you want me to do?" she asked.”Gu Yue did not reply. She instructed Tuoba Yu 'er to continue regulating her breathing according to the law. She turned around and said,"Miss Xiao Xue, please place the Blood-Dew Immortal Peach into the Shennong Cauldron!”

Yu Xiaoxue took out a peach from her pocket and carefully placed it into the Shennong Cauldron. The Shennong Cauldron immediately flashed with five-colored light, illuminating the entire room. After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the light gradually dimmed, and finally, the cauldron regained its calm.

"It's done…" Gu Yue said to Xiaoxue."Miss Xiaoxue, go and retrieve the Scarlet Jade Crystal from the cauldron and feed it to Miss Tuoba."”Yu Xiaoxue walked to the side of the cauldron and bent down to take a look. Sure enough, there was a crystal clear red crystal in the cauldron. She gently took it out and brought a bowl of water for Tuoba Yu 'er to swallow.

After a while, Gu Yue walked to the wooden couch and said,"Alright, now I'm going to infuse immortal energy into Miss Tuoba's body so that the Shennong Cauldron and the power of the Blood-Dew Immortality Peach can resonate with each other. Please wait quietly." As he spoke, he placed his hands on both sides of Tuoba Yu 'er's head and secretly activated his divine art.

Everyone held their breaths and did not dare to move. Tuoba Yu 'er was sweating profusely, and her face turned from white to red, and then from red to white. This repeated several times. After a meal, Gu Yue slowly moved her hand away and took a few steps back. Her forehead was covered in sweat as she said,"Alright…Success! Lady Tuoba, your eyes and appearance have been restored.”Tuoba Yu 'er was surprised when she heard that.

"Miss, this is a gift from your companion who went through so much trouble to give you. Just accept it!"”Tuoba Yu 'er slowly opened her eyes and felt a strong light shoot into her eyes. She quickly closed them again. "Mmm, you haven't seen anything for a long time. You're not used to it at the moment. You'll be fine after some rest!" Gu Yue said. Your appearance will gradually recover in ten days, and you will be exactly the same as before.”

Tuoba Yu 'er was surprised and happy. Her heart ached and tears fell as she choked,"Thank you…I…I really don't know how to…thank you!”Unable to hold it in any longer, she leaned against the bed and started crying.

"Don't cry, don't cry…You're already a big girl, why do you still like to cry so much?" Ran Weng said with a smile.”

Gu Yue turned around and said to Chen Jingchou,"Her body still needs to rest for a few days before she can fully recover. During this period of time, you guys can have fun here.”He turned around and left. Chen Jingchou thanked him with tears in his eyes.

In the next few days, Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue carefully served Tuoba Yu 'er. At this moment, Tuoba Yu 'er's eyes had mostly recovered. The wounds on his face gradually healed. Yu Xiaoxue took a mirror for her to look at, and the three of them felt happy. After half a month of rest, Tuoba Yu 'er's injuries were almost fully healed.

On this day, the three of them were chatting in their room. Old Man Ran walked in with a face full of joy. When he saw Tuoba Yu 'er, he smiled and said,"Ah, little girl who likes to cry, you look good today!”

Tuoba Yu 'er raised her eyebrows and said angrily,""Who, who is a little girl who likes to cry?”

"Little Xue, this is bad…Sister Yu 'Er has not only recovered her looks and eyes, but even her temper has also recovered!" Chen Jingchou said happily.”

Tuoba Yu 'er's face darkened and she turned her head away.

"Alright, alright, don't be awkward first…I have good news to tell everyone!"”

Chen Jingchou didn't know what was going on and quickly walked over. Tuoba Yu 'er lowered her head and ignored him. Ran Weng coughed a few times and said,"Immortal Gu Yue…" He did not continue. Although Chen Jingchou was puzzled, he did not dare to ask. After a while, Tuoba Yu 'er could not hold it in any longer. She turned around and said,""Old Immortal, don't keep me in suspense. Please tell me quickly!”

Old Ran laughed and said,"The little girl who loves to cry is still impatient!"”Tuoba Yu 'er pouted and turned her head away. "Alright, I'll tell everyone for the sake of the little girl who likes to cry!" Ran Weng said with a smile. Cough cough…Immortal Gu Yue had already promised to personally go to Demon Subduing Mountain to save Teacher Chen's father!”

When Chen Jingchou heard this, he was surprised and delighted. He hurriedly said,""Old Immortal, is this true?……”Ran Weng said," Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you? Didn't I tell you before?" Immortal Gu Yue was the kind of person who would not help, but once he helped, he would help until the end!”Chen Jingchou was so happy that he was jumping around like a five or six-year-old child. Tuoba Yu 'er and Yu Xiaoxue were happy to hear this.

Old Ran waved his hand." Hold your celebration. I still have something to say."”Chen Jingchou and the others quickly quieted down, and the room fell silent. "Before rescuing Old Master Chen, you must do one more thing," Old Man Ran said. As for the specifics, Immortal Gu Yue has instructed you to go to the chess pavilion to find him. He has his own arrangements.”Chen Jingchou and the other two thanked Old Man Ran in unison, and as if they had picked up a treasure, they flew toward the chess pavilion. Old Ran looked at their backs and thought of his youth. He could not help but shake his head slowly.

The three of them ran to the chess pavilion and saw that Gu Yue was already waiting there. They quickly went forward to greet her. "Lady Tuoba, how do you feel after resting for the past few days?" Gu Yue asked.”

"Thank you so much, Immortal Gu Yue!" Tuoba Yu 'er said. I've completely recovered!"

"That's good," Gu Yue nodded."You should properly thank your companions." They saved you." Tuoba Yu 'er's eyes reddened as she thanked Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue again. "I'm sure you know that I've already made my decision. I'm going to Demon Subduing Mountain to save Young Master Chen's master."”Chen Jingchou hurriedly stepped forward to express his gratitude. Gu Yue opened her folding fan and waved it a few times."But if I want to defeat that ancient demon, I still need a special divine artifact…"

"Immortal Gu Yue, please instruct me!" Chen Jingchou said. No matter if it's a mountain of blades or a sea of flames, I'm going to find them.”Gu Yue folded her fan and said," Alright…In the sea southwest of Celestial Mountain Island, there's a towering tree called Zhongjian Wood in the Sea. It's one of the nine pillars supporting the Celestial Realm's sky! At the highest point of Jianmu, there was a Pangu Giant Axe. -- If he wanted to subdue the Taotie, he would need to use this divine artifact!”

"Pangu Giant Axe…Isn't that an ancient divine artifact?" Chen Jingchou asked in surprise.”

"That's right. The Pangu Axe is currently under the care of the slumbering Creation Wood God," Gu Yue replied. All you have to do is go to him and borrow the axe back-all you have to do is say, Gu Yue was the one who borrowed his axe, so he would not make things difficult for her.”Chen Jingchou agreed and asked for directions. Gu Yue took out a piccolo." I'll give you this seven-horned sea flute. You can use it to summon my mount, the blue crystal. That way, you can sail to the nearby immortal sea."”Chen Jingchou and the other two thanked him and left.

They came down the mountain and took the road to the west. Before long, they reached the seaside. The shore was made of rocks, like a natural dock. In the middle stood a huge rock with the words 'Mozhi Beach' written on it. "According to the path the Immortal pointed out, this should be the place!" Chen Jingchou said.”He climbed onto a large rock, took out the Seven-Horned Sea Flute, lowered his head, and started to play. The sound of the flute drifted far away along with the sea breeze. Not long after, a pillar of water rose from the surface of the sea, followed by a small whale. The little whale cried out a few times, swam closer to the shore, and stopped steadily. "Alright, let's go up!" Chen Jingchou said.”He helped Tuoba Yu 'er and Yu Xiaoxue onto the back of the whale. The blue crystal circled around the shallow water on the shore a few times before turning around and heading straight into the sea.

Chen Jingchou followed Gu Yue's instructions and used different flute notes to control the direction of the blue crystals. After walking for about an hour, they could vaguely see a towering tree on the sea in front of them. The top of the tree actually reached into the clouds. After another hour, they arrived at the bottom of the tree. Lan Jing found a place with deep water and sent Chen Jingchou and the other two to the roots. Chen Jingchou jumped down from the whale's back and stood still. He looked up and saw that the tree was intertwined with branches. It was like a car cover, but also like a huge green umbrella. Within it, there was almost no sunlight. Looking down, he was even more surprised. He was standing on a root, and it was actually three meters thick. He was surprised and speechless for a long time. Tuoba Yu 'er was also surprised.”

The three of them were about to move forward when Yu Xiaoxue suddenly knelt on the ground and said,"Brother Chen, my head…my head hurts!”Chen Jingchou turned around and rushed over, asking,""Xiao Xue, what's wrong?" Yu Xiaoxue covered her head with a pained expression and said,"My head…my head feels like it's going to split open!”Chen Jingchou quickly helped her to the side to rest.

"I'm sorry, Little Xue…It's all my fault!" Tuoba Yu 'er blamed herself. For me, you've exhausted your body. This is all my fault!”"Sister Tuoba, please don't say that."”" I had a headache like this the first time I met Brother Chen," he said after resting for a while." Later on, when I was in the Demon King Stronghold and the Dragon Palace, I had a headache like this too…but it wasn't as bad as this time."”Chen Jingchou let Yu Xiaoxue rest quietly and wait for her to feel better. He wanted to keep her waiting at the bottom of the tree, but Yu Xiaoxue refused. He could only support her and climb up the branches with Tuoba Yu 'er.

Chen Jingchou was afraid that Yu Xiaoxue would not be able to hold on, so he stopped on the branches to rest. It took him more than four hours to climb to the top of the tree. The few of them walked along a dense branch. At the end of the branch, there was a huge face that was nearly twenty feet tall. The wrinkles were deep, and it looked like dried wood. Chen Jingchou looked at his feet. He was actually standing on his beard. The Creation Wood God's eyes were closed and he was still in a deep sleep. "Ah Chou, if we want to borrow the Pangu Axe, we have to wake this immortal up first!" Tuoba Yu 'er said.”Chen Jingchou replied and bowed,""Immortal Builder Tree! Please wake up, we have something to ask of you!”The Creation Wood God didn't hear him at all and didn't react at all. Chen Jingchou repeated.

Who knew that the Creation Wood God was still sleeping soundly. Tuoba Yu 'er anxiously took a step forward and shouted into the Creation Wood God's ear,""Old Deity! Wake up! We're here to borrow something!"

The Creation Wood God's body trembled and he slowly opened his eyes. He then closed them and said in a daze,""Who is it?"

"Excuse me, are you the Creation Tree Immortal?" Chen Jingchou asked.”

The muscles on the Creation Wood God's face twitched slightly, and he said in a low voice,""Yes…Why are you looking for me?”

"We are friends of Immortal Gu Yue," Chen Jingchou said."He asked us to borrow a divine artifact called the Pangu Axe from you.”

"Ah…I need to borrow the axe again…He borrowed it from me once a few hundred years ago…" The Creation Wood God said with his eyes half-open,"I'm going to borrow the axe again.""I have no objections if you want to borrow the axe…but you woke me up from my nap and made me a little uncomfortable!”

Chen Jingchou apologized," I'm really sorry. We didn't mean to disturb you!"”

The Creation Wood God thought for a while and said," How about this…I've been sleeping for hundreds of years and haven't turned over. My body is a little itchy…Later, when I get my primordial spirit out, you guys can accompany me to exercise my muscles and bones.”

Chen Jingchou hesitated and said,"How…how can this be…""As long as you can beat me until I feel comfortable, I will immediately lend you my axe. I will not go back on my word.”Chen Jingchou was still confused. Suddenly, with a flash of golden light, a seven-foot-tall giant appeared in front of him.

The giant man's weapon was very strange. It was actually a huge rock on his shoulder. He shouted and stood up. Chen Jingchou and the other two hurriedly retreated, protecting their bodies as they focused on the battle. The giant man raised his hands. The boulder weighed at least a few thousand jin, but he effortlessly threw it into the air and smashed it toward Chen Jingchou and the other two. Chen Jingchou cried out, and the three of them hurriedly dodged. With a loud bang, the huge rock fell a foot away from the three of them. Yang Qi was covered in mud and dust, sinking deep into the ground. Chen Jingchou's face was covered in dust, and he was suffocated. He hurriedly jumped away and drew his sword to attack. The giant man avoided the sword attack and jumped to the side of the rock. He lifted the huge rock and swung it back and forth. The huge rock turned into a huge shield. Chen Jingchou and the others surrounded the giant man. No matter how they attacked, they could not break in. The stone in the giant man's hand would occasionally sweep out horizontally, almost sweeping everyone off the tree several times. Chen Jingchou could only feel the wind whistling in his ears. He was unable to get close and could only dodge to the left and right. He didn't attack anymore and walked around the giant man. After a few rounds, he suddenly saw the giant man throw the huge rock towards Tuoba Yu 'er. Tuoba Yu 'er cried out and hurriedly ducked. The giant man's attack, without the protection of the giant rock, had already revealed a big flaw. Chen Jingchou hurriedly threw down his sword and dashed in, arriving in front of the giant man in a flash. The giant man was shocked. He raised the boulder above his head and suddenly realized that if it were to smash down on Chen Jingchou, it would definitely crush the two of them into meat patties. In a moment of desperation, he threw away the boulder and the two of them entered a melee. One had extraordinary strength, while the other had nimble palm techniques. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty moves had passed, and no one could subdue the other. Tuoba Yu 'er and Yu Xiaoxue looked at each other, threw away their weapons, and stepped forward to help. The giant man was calm and collected. He didn't attack outside and only cared about guarding the door. His expression was one of enjoyment. He raised his head as if he was enjoying a pot of wine. Strangely enough, no matter how Chen Jingchou and the others attacked, they could not do anything to him. No matter how dangerous the moves were, he could resolve them at the most critical moment. After over a hundred moves, the situation was still in a stalemate. After fighting for a while more, Chen Jingchou and the other two were already exhausted. They couldn't help but feel anxious as they tried to attack the giant man. However, there was a time when their physical strength was exhausted. Yu Xiaoxue and Tuoba Yu 'er could not hold on any longer and retreated one after another. Chen Jingchou held on for a while longer. He was already panting from exhaustion. His hands were dancing wildly, and he had no more moves. The giant man laughed loudly and suddenly turned into a golden light and disappeared.

Chen Jingchou had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He lay down and only managed to catch his breath after a long time.

After a while, the Creation Wood God opened his eyes and said happily,"Not bad, not bad…you guys have made my muscles and bones feel good. Now, I can sleep peacefully for another eight hundred years.”He swayed his body slightly, causing the entire tree to shake. An ancient axe fell from the top of the tree and landed in front of him."This is the Pangu axe you want. Take it yourself. Remember to return it after you use it.”Chen Jingchou got up and bowed to thank the Creation Wood God. " Right…" said the Creation Wood God." When you return the axe, just throw it directly into the tree hole below. Don't wake me up from my afternoon nap, understand?"”Chen Jingchou nodded in agreement. The Creation Wood God yawned and started snoring again.

Chen Jingchou gently picked up the Pangu Axe and put it into the Lianyao Flask. The three of them were afraid of waking up the Creation Wood God again, so they quietly climbed down the tree.
