Tian Buyi, that old man, had a dirty mind. The next day, he brought Xiao Yicai and the others to the training ground and made them live targets for his disciples. He also didn't allow them to use flying swords and magic treasures, so they could only be beaten passively. The conditions were very harsh. It seemed that he only treated Xiao Yicai and the others as targets for his disciples to practice on.
Unfortunately, the old fellow had a good idea and was ruthless. However, he had misjudged the strength of his disciples. To be exact, he had underestimated Xiao Yicai. Xiao Yicai had been deeply inherited from Daoist Dao Xuan. In terms of profound cultivation and solid foundation, he was far from being comparable to the disciples of Big Bamboo Peak. In addition, he had been studying the fourth volume of the Tomes of Arcane for more than a year, and his cultivation had improved. He was only one step away from the Supreme Pure Realm. He did not need to use anything else. His technique of creating the Taiji Diagram had already reached the acme of perfection. When he was on the square of Tongtian Peak, he could even forcefully control and turn the flying swords that were surging towards him. How could he be afraid of these people from Big Bamboo Peak?
He landed lightly in the middle of the field and stood still. His hands formed a Tai Chi diagram, circling left and right, and using Yuan Zhuan. No matter how many people came, they could not get close to Xiao Yicai. Usually, the people of Big Bamboo Peak were exhausted until they could not even touch the corner of Xiao Yicai's clothes. As time passed, the people of Big Bamboo Peak would rather gather around Ma Zhiyuan and Shen Tiandou than go to Xiao Yicai's place and ask for a snub.
This outcome only angered the old fellow, Tian Buyi, half to death. While he secretly hated his disciples for being useless, he wanted Xiao Yicai to not even use the most basic Taiji Xuanqing Dao of the Qingyun Sect. However, he could not bring himself to do so. He had completely lost his patience with Xiao Yicai. He waved his hand and demoted Xiao Yicai to the kitchen to help his youngest disciple, Zhang Xiaofan, cook the fire. He did not want Xiao Yicai to take a step into the training ground.
From then on, Xiao Yicai became the most idle person on Big Bamboo Peak. After helping Zhang Xiaofan cook, he had nothing to do. He wandered around, but every time he wandered around, he would be accompanied by someone. Tian Ling 'er, the little tail, would come and pester him almost every day.
Of course, Xiao Yicai had always been a hardworking person. He would never waste his time on purpose. He wandered around to find a relatively quiet place to continue practicing the Taiji Mystic Green Art and the Heavenly Book special technique to improve his cultivation. For some reason, Tian Ling 'er saw this and followed him every day. When Xiao Yi cultivated, she also cultivated. When Xiao Yi got up and wandered around, she followed behind him. Sometimes... She would also ask Zhang Xiaofan to follow Xiao Yicai.
If Xiao Yicai was here, it would be boring to just cultivate, and the two kids wouldn't have followed him around all the time. It was his fault for being a sharp-tongued person. When he saw that Tian Ling 'er and Zhang Xiaofan had some small problems with their cultivation, he opened his mouth to give them some advice. From then on, they had touched a hornet's nest. The two of them, especially Tian Ling' er, would ask questions about cultivation, big or small. Xiao Yicai would be bombarded by him almost every day. Some of the questions were even very unpopular. Xiao Yicai had a strong personality and was never willing to shoot arrows without a place to shoot.
For every question, no matter how big or small, he had to teach them one by one if he could answer them. For those he didn't understand, he had to go back at night to read the Daoist scriptures or seek advice from his teachers. Daoist Dao Xuan alone had been asked several times. There was even one time when Xiao Yicai was eager to know the answer to a thorny question, so he had to be thick-skinned and ask Tian Buyi for advice. It had to be said that the old fellow's level was still at that realm. He could answer a question clearly and perfectly solve Xiao Yicai's doubts.
Tian Ling 'er naturally gained a lot from such an encyclopedia of knowledge and Xiao Yicai's constant advice. She was already very intelligent and had been carefully taught by her parents since she was young. She had practiced the Taiji Mystic Pure Dao for many years and had a solid foundation. At the age of thirteen, she had already reached the fourth level of the Jade Pure Realm. Over the past few days, with Xiao Yicai's guidance, she miraculously advanced another level and directly reached the fifth level of the Jade Pure Realm, catching up with Eldest Senior Brother Song Daren.
This news made Old Tian and his wife smile. Not only did Su Ru look at him more kindly, but even Old Tian was no longer as indifferent to him as before. When they met, he would also give her a "mm, ah" gesture.
It was another sunny day. Xiao Yi had just woken up when Tian Ling 'er pulled him to the side mysteriously. Zhang Xiaofan was already there.
Xiao Yicai looked at Erxiao in confusion. Tian Ling 'er pointed at Zhang Xiaofan and said,""Brother Xiao, do you see anything different about Xiao Fan?”
What was the difference? Xiao Yicai quickly looked at Zhang Xiaofan and saw that his face was bruised. He couldn't help but ask,""Xiao Fan, what happened to your face?"
" Senior Brother Xiao, I'm fine. I'm just…" Zhang Xiaofan's face turned red as he stammered.
Tian Ling 'er pouted and glared at Zhang Xiaofan before explaining to Xiao Yicai,""A gray-haired monkey appeared at the back of the mountain. Little Fan was injured by him? That damned monkey. He actually injured Xiaofan so badly. Let's go, Senior Brother Xiao. Let's go to the back of the mountain and teach that bad monkey a lesson."”
Tian Ling 'er was furious. She knew that she had always loved Zhang Xiaofan very much. It was fine if she bullied Zhang Xiaofan, but if it was someone else, she would definitely avenge her junior brother, let alone a monkey.
The three of them arrived at the back of the mountain. Zhang Xiaofan was still chopping bamboo, while Tian Ling 'er and Xiao Yicai hid at the side, waiting for the monkey to appear.
Sure enough, the monkey Xiao Hui arrived soon after. Xiao Yicai and Tian Ling 'er immediately revealed themselves and chased after him. However, Xiao Yicai was, after all, the eldest senior brother of the Qingyun Sect. With his status, he naturally could not make things difficult for a gray-furred monkey. Therefore, his speed was a little slow. On the other hand, Tian Ling' er immediately used the red silk to strip Zhang Xiaofan off when she saw the monkey appear and chased after him.
Big Bamboo Peak was tall and steep. Although it was not as high as Tongtian Peak, it went straight into the sea of clouds. There was almost no way to climb up from the foot of the mountain. Most of the Qingyun Sect disciples flew in the air. At first, he was among the shadows of the trees. He saw the gray shadow in front of him, and the red shadow chased after him. He circled around and chased after him. In the blink of an eye, the situation changed. A streak of rainbow shadow flashed past like lightning and disappeared into the dense forest behind the Great Bamboo Peak.
Xiao Yicai frowned and hastened his speed. However, the green bamboo forest in front of him seemed to be endless. Layer by layer, he faced it head-on. After an unknown period of time, a light suddenly appeared in front of him. Xiao Yi was shocked and hurriedly stopped.
Sword Kinesis Flight was extremely fast. Before Xiao Yi could react, he had already rushed out of the forest and shot straight into the sky. Suddenly, a cliff appeared in front of him.
Xiao Yicai hurriedly spun his sword and stood steadily in midair. He calmed himself down and saw a deep valley below the cliff. There was a thick fog in the distance, making it impossible to see clearly. The walls of the valley nearby were no longer black bamboos, but all kinds of wild trees, mostly pine and cypress. It turned out that he had already chased them to the secluded valley far away from the back of the mountain.
Xiao Yicai didn't have time to think. His body fell straight into the deep valley. The fog in the deep valley was so thick that Xiao Yicai could only feel the whistling sound. He could barely open his eyes. He didn't know where Tian Ling 'er and the others had gone. Xiao Yicai couldn't help but worry about their safety. He could only fly deeper into the valley.
This secluded valley was very big. In addition to the fog, it was difficult to distinguish things. Xiao Yi flew for a long time, but his cultivation was profound and his speed was far faster than Tian Ling 'er. Finally, he found a rainbow shadow in front of him. It was Tian Ling' er.
At this moment, Xiao Yi looked forward from behind Tian Ling 'er. He saw that the trees in front of him were gradually thinning, and the light shone in. It was a vague open space, and there seemed to be the sound of water. At this moment, the grey monkey's screams became more and more urgent. It seemed that it did not expect that these people would not give up after chasing for a long time. However, there was no way out, so it could only desperately escape forward.
Not long after, his eyes suddenly lit up. Indeed, he was in an open space. The ground was filled with gravel, and there was a small green pond in the middle. The water rippled and flowed to the west. The grey monkey had obviously hesitated for a moment when it escaped here. However, the sound of air being torn apart came from behind it in the blink of an eye. It had no choice but to land on the ground and run forward again.
However, for some reason, its pace became extremely slow. It did not look like it was running for its life, but more like it was taking a stroll. Even so, it still moved forward step by step.
Xiao Yicai saw the scene in front of him and his expression changed. He was about to warn Tian Ling 'er, but she was so focused that she was overjoyed when she saw the grey monkey in front of her. How could she think so much? With a shout, she rushed into the empty space and pounced on the grey monkey.
Just as she was about to catch the monkey, Tian Ling 'er's body suddenly trembled twice. Her body went limp and she actually fell down. After losing Tian Ling 'er's control, the amber immediately stopped. Due to inertia, Tian Ling' er and Zhang Xiaofan fell from the sky.
Xiao Yicai was shocked and rushed forward. However, just as he was about to approach the pool, a loud bang suddenly rang in his head. His body shook involuntarily. A nauseating feeling rose from his five internal organs and rushed to his head. In a moment, he felt his entire body tremble.
Xiao Yicai was shocked. He hurriedly made a hand seal and circulated the True Essence in his body. His cultivation was already high, so he circulated the True Essence in his body. Suddenly, his chest felt hot, and a warm air spread out to protect his heart and meridians. Then, it offset the nausea.
Xiao Yi did not dare to be negligent as soon as he calmed himself down. A silver light shot out and caught Zhang Xiaofan and Tian Ling 'er in his hands before slowly putting them down.
Zhang Xiaofan was fine with the Blood-devouring Pearl protecting him, but he looked a little dazed. Tian Ling 'er, on the other hand, was motionless. Her face was pale, and her forehead was covered in cold sweat. She had already fainted.
"Junior Sister Ling 'er, Junior Sister Ling' er?" Xiao Yicai pushed her and called out several times, but Tian Ling 'er still did not respond.
Xiao Yicai frowned and hurriedly waved his left hand. A small red bead flew out from his sleeve and rolled a few times on her forehead and chest. Suddenly, a cool air penetrated her body.
This bead was the unique treasure that Daoist Dao Xuan had used to stabilize Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu's minds in Yuqing Palace.
"Huh?" With the help of the Mind-stabilizing Pearl, Tian Ling 'er's expression relaxed and she slowly woke up.
"Junior Sister Ling Er, you're awake." Xiao Yicai was overjoyed.”
Tian Ling 'er felt a little confused. She opened her eyes and saw Xiao Yicai's anxious and panicked face. It seemed to be far away, but it was also close. It slowly became clear in front of her eyes. She was lying in his arms. Tian Ling' er blushed and called out softly,""Senior Brother Xiao!"
Xiao Yicai nodded and picked up Tian Ling 'er. At the same time, he picked up the amber and red silk that had been thrown to the side and walked out. After walking for 30 feet, they arrived under a large pine tree. When they felt that the disgust had disappeared, they gently put Tian Ling 'er down.
At this moment, Xiao Yi realized that Zhang Xiaofan didn't come out with him. He couldn't help but turn around and see Zhang Xiaofan sweating profusely. He was carrying the gray monkey in his arms as he walked out step by step.
He was kind and did not forget to save the monkey.
Finally, Zhang Xiaofan walked up to Xiao Yicai and the other two. He put down the grey monkey and sat down on the ground, panting heavily. The grey monkey also heaved a sigh of relief and lay on the ground. Its eyes darted around, but it didn't run away. It just looked at Zhang Xiaofan.
Seeing that the two of them were fine, Xiao Yicai turned his gaze to the pool in the open space.
It was a small pool of water. The area was not large, and the source could not be seen. It was probably formed by underground spring water. The water in the pool was green, and one couldn't tell how deep it was from here. There was a gap on the west side of the pool, and the water flowed out from there, forming a small stream that meandered away.
In the middle of the pool, there was a pile of rocks of different sizes and shapes. A small portion of them was exposed on the surface of the water. A short black stick was inserted into the rocks. It was a foot above the surface of the water, and the rest was submerged in the water. It was completely black, and it was impossible to tell what material it was made of. It was very ugly.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt a heat in his chest. He heard a few muffled sounds as if something had broken. Immediately after, a thumb-sized bead flew out from his chest. It shone brightly with green light, and the green qi inside was like a wolf or a tiger. It desperately hit the bead wall. It was the strange Blood Devouring Bead. And the swastika that was stopping it was becoming weaker and weaker, becoming dimmer and dimmer, and it seemed that it would not be able to withstand it.
Seeing that the Blood Devouring Pearl was about to break out of the restriction and bring disaster to the human world. Xiao Yi, who was beside him, clenched his fist and grabbed the bead. He circulated the mana of the Taiji Mystic Pure Dao in his body, turning it into a clear light and injecting it into the bead.
Buddhism and Taoism were inseparable. Xiao Yi had only studied the Buddhist Heavenly Book on the wordless jade wall for a year, so his vital essence naturally carried a trace of Buddhist power. With the injection of his vital essence, the "" word on the Blood Devouring Pearl actually lit up a lot, slowly suppressing the green light inside.
Whoosh! Xiao Yicai heaved a sigh of relief. He gave Zhang Xiaofan a meaningful look and threw the Blood-devouring Pearl back to him.
However, before he could turn his head, he heard a muffled sound coming from the middle of the pool. Suddenly, the wind blew and the gravel in the pool shot out in all directions with a bang. The green water in the pond began to surge and swirl around the center of the pond, forming a huge whirlpool. In the middle of the whirlpool, something slowly emerged from the cracks of the water. It was a black short stick that was about two feet long. It was neither gold nor iron, and a ferocious aura assaulted his face.
Seeing this, Xiao Yicai only smiled coldly. He was not in a hurry. He first sacrificed the Mind-stabilizing Pearl that he obtained from Daoist Dao Xuan above his head to protect his mind. Then, he formed a strange seal with his hands and crossed them. He first closed his index finger and little finger and gently pointed at the short stick that was flying over. He shouted,"Lock!"
The short stick suddenly trembled violently in the air. A moment later, as if it had received a heavy blow, the black gas gathered and fell from the air, landing right beside Xiao Yicai's feet.
"Senior Brother Xiao, are you alright? What was this thing? Just now, it was emitting a demonic aura. It felt very strange.”The one who spoke was Tian Ling 'er. Her body was still a little weak and on the verge of collapse.
"Junior Sister Ling 'er, why are you here? I'm fine. I've already used the Qingyun Sect's secret Heart-killing Lock to seal that short stick. I'll be fine.”Xiao Yicai was afraid that she would fall, so he didn't care about the short stick and hurried over to help her.
Tian Ling 'er enjoyed being half-hugged and half-supported by him. She didn't ask much and just quietly let him hug her.
