Chapter 84 Something's Wrong
Upon hearing that it concerned Guang Chengzi, Laozi and Tongtian also took it to heart. These five disciples of the sages quickly moved Guang Chengzi's body into the Bajing Palace, and then closed the palace gates to block the view of the Shangqing disciples who were watching the show.
Because Guang Chengzi had been traveling for many years, the Shangqing immortals, who had become somewhat more disciplined, began to stir up trouble again. Especially after Duobao emerged from seclusion after successfully comprehending the Great Luo Dao, these people seemed to have a powerful backer and immediately became as intolerant and even arrogant as before.
They even ostracized many virtuous cultivators who had received Guang Chengzi's teachings, and they despised them for coming to Shangqing Peak to cultivate, treating them like pigs and dogs.
If it weren't for the protection of the Holy Mother of Wudang and the Holy Mother of Jinling, some people would probably have already considered slaughtering their fellow disciples.
Fortunately, all these virtuous immortals went to cultivate in Yuqing Peak. No matter how bold these Shangqing immortals were, they didn't dare to act arrogantly in the Daoist temple of Yuanshi Tianzun, so they escaped a calamity.
During this period, Wudang Shengmu and Jinling Shengmu did not want to suppress these warlike junior brothers and sisters, but unfortunately, these people had Duobao backing them up, and with Guiling Shengmu opposing them, these two direct disciples of Shangqing were also very angry. So they simply went to Yuqing Peak to cultivate, and were too lazy to deal with these people.
Furthermore, with the instigation of some newly recruited disciples of Tongtian, Shangqing Peak has become a gathering place for demons and monsters, all thanks to the support of Duobao.
As Jieyin and Zhunti descended, many Shangqing immortals, having nothing better to do, wandered around and overheard these remarks. They were immediately overjoyed and quickly reported the matter to their fellow disciples.
Seven Immortals Peak is a superior spiritual place in the Kunlun Mountains. It connects with the heavens above and hides the netherworld below. Heaven and earth are connected, the spiritual energy is rich, exotic flowers are everywhere, and green grass grows lushly.
What is most precious is that water rushes down from the summit of this peak, like a celestial river pouring down from above. The babbling of the spring water and the booming sound resound through the sky, creating a vast watery land that brings with it a vital energy.
This makes the mountain appear even more beautiful and vibrant, as if it were breathing continuously, as if it were cultivating, just like a real person.
At the foot of the Seven Immortals Peak, seven immortals sat cross-legged, constantly breathing in and out of a stone basin. Above this stone basin, an enormous stalactite hung high, and above the stalactite, a line of white milk slowly dripped down into the natural stone basin.
But every time a drop of milk flowed into the stone basin, the seven people immediately opened their mouths and sucked it in. The drop of pure white milk immediately flew up and down, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, sometimes up, sometimes down, and finally into the mouth of a person with a full head of blond hair.
As Jin Guangxian swallowed the drop of earth's milk, he felt his last bit of injury healed. He couldn't help but let out a long roar, and a fierce aura surged into the sky. In a daze, it seemed as if a ferocious beast was rising behind him, emitting a silent roar. The stench of corpses filled the ground, and malice was overflowing. It was terrifying beyond imagination.
"Guang Chengzi! I swear to avenge my past wrongs!"
After retracting his zombie form, Jin Guangxian uttered these words, his face contorted with rage and unbearable pain, wishing he could skin Guang Chengzi alive and devour him.
Having suffered repeated setbacks at the hands of Guang Chengzi, with even his origin and dojo being destroyed, Jin Guangxian's future was essentially over if nothing unexpected happened.
If it weren't for their eldest brother, Wuyun Xian, pleading with Tongtian day and night, which aroused Tongtian's pity and led him to point out the location of the Seven Immortal Peaks, where they found the extraordinary treasure, the Heaven and Earth Stalactite, and were able to absorb the milk of heaven and earth, Jin Guangxian was able to barely replenish his original essence.
Even after recovering, Jin Guangxian could not forget the hatred he had felt before. If it weren't for the other immortals' repeated dissuasion and the hope of recovery, he probably would have wanted to perish together with his opponent long ago.
Compared to the recovered Jin Guangxian, a male immortal dressed in pink with two rabbit ears sat weakly to the side; this was Chang Er Ding Guang Xian.
While Jin Guangxian might have a chance of recovery, Chang Er Ding Guangxian's chances are slim.
As a cultivator who practices the path of joy, having his life force severed and his source of trouble eradicated, it would be difficult for him to be reborn.
A cultivator's foundation is like their origin; once lost, it can never be regained unless they acquire an unparalleled spiritual root that rivals the creation of heaven and earth or a supreme treasure born of nature to replenish their foundation. Otherwise, forget about it.
Of course, if Laozi were to personally refine a batch of the Returning Wind and Reversing Fire Golden Pill, he could easily recover. After all, Laozi is the founder of alchemy, and there is no pill that he cannot refine.
But Lao Tzu always refines pills according to his mood. He refines them when he feels like it, and he doesn't refine them when he doesn't. If he's in a good mood, he'll give you several rooms full of pills even if you don't ask. If he's in a bad mood, he won't bother refining a single Qi-restoring pill even if you kneel until the end of time.
Moreover, the recent opportunity of Hongjun preaching has presented itself. Laozi hasn't even opened his furnace to refine pills in ages. After all this time, Chang'er Dingguang Xian can only live like this, neither male nor female.
He casually grabbed a female rabbit, ignoring its shrill cries, and squeezed it hard, instantly turning it into a cloud of blood mist. Finally, he opened his mouth and swallowed it, mixing it with a drop of earth's milk.
Feeling the pure and clear innate Yin energy within, Chang Er Ding Guang Xian comfortably closed his eyes, feeling his energy becoming more active once again.
Unfortunately, this vital energy didn't last long before it leaked out through the hole beneath Chang'er Dingguang Xian, resulting in a loss of cultivation rather than an increase in its power.
puff!
As Chang Er Ding Guangxian sensed all this, his anger intensified. Overwhelmed by rage, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, his already pale face becoming even weaker, clearly indicating that he was about to die.
Upon seeing this, the other six quickly used their magic to nurture and stabilize his essence.
A middle-aged man dressed in a long, dark robe, with a few wisps of beard like the whiskers of a giant sea turtle, said, "Junior Brother Long-Eared, calm down quickly and don't be so impulsive, otherwise we won't be able to keep you safe."
Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal, unable to sit still, leaned against the stone wall and sighed deeply, "What does it matter if it's good or bad? It's still the same. It seems I'm doomed. Brother Wuyun, it seems you've wasted your efforts."
The middle-aged man who spoke was Wu Yunxian, the leader of the Seven Immortals.
