Inside the main Bodhi Hall, the two of them were facing each other, and it was a bit like the scene when they peeped at the God. The only difference was that You Fushi was sitting at that time, and today Ye Su was standing opposite the Chief Envoy.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, please take a seat." Palm Envoy Penglai raised his hand to motion for her to sit down.
Ye Su followed his instructions and sat opposite the chief envoy, which happened to be the same place where she had sat when she was in You Fu.
As soon as she sat down, the Yin-Yang formation in the hall began to rotate, and the black and white merged to form an afterimage, which gradually concealed the aura of the two people.
After a while, Penglai finally spoke, and his first words were: "He does not belong to the Three Realms."
It is obvious who this 'he' refers to.
Ye Su lowered her eyes and said nothing, her expression calm and quiet, as if she didn't hear what the leader said.
In the Yin-Yang array, Penglai could see everything. He was a little surprised by Ye Su's silence: "You... know?"
Ye Su shook her head, she didn't know, but later she noticed that You Fushi was different. First it was the blood of the Xuanyin body, and then the purple boy who looked exactly like the Supreme God. It was hard not to guess that he was related to the upper realm.
But, that’s all.
"He is different from all of us, including the three Supreme Gods." The old voice of Penglai Palm Master came slowly, "Fellow Daoist Ye, there is one thing you need to know... He is closely related to your destiny, "
Ye Su's eyebrows finally moved, and she looked up at Peng Lai, the palm master: "Me?"
The expression on Penglai Palm Master's face was somewhat complicated. When his pair of eyes full of white film looked over, it seemed that he had completely seen through Ye Su. He whispered, "I know where Fellow Daoist Ye came from. I just want to remind you a few words."
Ye Su was startled for a moment, then realized that Penglai's chief envoy had probably deduced something about her. She said, "Please speak."
"You can't change what has already happened." Penglai Palm Envoy advised kindly, "It is his fate, it cannot be changed or circumvented."
Some things the palm master can vaguely see, but cannot say them out.
Ye Su was silent for a long time, neither agreeing nor refusing.
A sigh came from the Yin-Yang disk array, somewhat helplessly: "Fellow Daoist Ye, he is the god nurtured by the heavenly way of the upper realm, and he will have to go back eventually."
Upon hearing this, Ye Su tightened her hands that were hanging in front of her knees. A god born from the heavenly way in the upper realm, so junior brother is... a god of control
The Yin-Yang Plate in the Bodhi Hall suddenly stopped, and the Penglai Palm Master who was speaking slowly lowered his head.
When Ye Su realized something was wrong, she quickly stood up and approached and shouted, "Chief Envoy?"
—It’s too late.
The Penglai Palm Master lost his life.
Ye Su knelt on one knee in front of the Penglai Chief Envoy and stared at his old, wrinkled face for a long time. This was the first and last time she saw the Chief Envoy's true appearance.
At this time, twelve Penglai Holy Envoys walked in from outside the door, knelt around, and chanted in a low voice, as if they already knew the fate of the Chief Envoy.
As they continued to chant, the Penglai Palm Master gradually turned into points of light, drifting outwards, and finally landed on the leaves of the Bodhi tree, becoming the power that nourished it.
Ye Su stared in astonishment at the figure disappearing in the hall. Had Chief Envoy Penglai already calculated his own fate today
The paper man in the hall approached silently, stood beside her, and made a gesture of invitation.
Ye Su closed her eyes, hiding all her emotions, and
He slowly stood up, followed the paper man out of the hall, and walked down.
The paper man took him to the bottom of the Bodhi tree in Penglai, but did not stop, but continued to walk down.
Ye Su looked at the back of the paper figure, thought for a moment and followed it. The paper figure and the man walked around the bodhi tree three times. Suddenly, her eyes went dark and a new staircase appeared in front of her.
She followed the paper man and continued walking downwards until they reached the center of the deep underground, where the entire area was covered with the roots of the sacred Bodhi tree.
The paper man led Ye Su to the middle, pointed at the tree root in the middle of the bottom and said, "You can take it away."
Ye Su didn't look at the middle, but turned to look at the paper figure. The voice was... Peng Lai's palm master.
After a while, she stepped forward and looked at the root bark of the sacred Bodhi tree. The ancient silver color shone with a metallic luster.
…It was the scabbard of the Blood-Crying Sword ten thousand years later.
For a moment, Ye Su wanted to turn around and leave, but in the end she said nothing and just quietly cut off the tree root.
It was not until Ye Su cut off the tree roots that the paper man came forward again and handed her a box.
Ye Su was stunned for a moment, took the lacquered wooden box, opened it, and immediately looked up at the paper figure in surprise.
The wooden box clearly contains the spirit of the rotating tower.
"This is the only seed of the sacred Bodhi tree. I would like to ask Daoist Ye to keep it for me temporarily and return it to Penglai in the future." The paper man said, "It is a request to take the root of the Bodhi tree."
Ye Su looked down at the seeds in the lacquered wooden box that emitted a faint fragrance. She thought of the sacred Bodhi tree that collapsed and withered ten thousand years later, and then she thought of the pagoda spirit that was sealed in Guizong City.
After a long time, she closed the box, put it away, and agreed, "Okay."
…
At the same time, on the other side, You Fushi was writing alone in the room. Zang Liu sneaked into Qianjimen again. This time he reached the Mahayana period, but he still relied on pretending to be dead tortoise shell to get in. He stayed in the pile of materials for more than a month before he came out.
Zang Liu quietly walked to the window of You Fushi's room: "Puchi Puchi—"
You Fushi was lying on the table, writing big characters seriously. After a long time, he turned his head to look at the window. He put down his pen, pushed open the window, and sure enough, he saw Zang Liu hiding outside.
"Demon Lord, let's go drink!" Zang Liu shouted in a low voice.
You Fushi hesitated for a moment and rejected the proposal: "I haven't finished practicing my calligraphy yet."
However, Zang Liu persisted and finally succeeded in luring You Fushi out.
"Where are we going to drink?" You Fushi asked him.
Zang Liu the thief said: "Wine cellar, I heard the disciples of Qianji Sect say that they want to pour out all the wine, what a pity! Demon Lord, let's go drink some first."
The one who loved wine the most in Qianji Sect was Elder Xing. After his death, the others were unwilling to go to the wine cellar to get wine, and they privately discussed that it would be better to fall in front of the elder's monument.
These were all what Zang Liu heard while mixing in the pile of materials.
"Taking without asking is stealing." You Fushi recited a sentence, which he had learned not long ago.
Zang Liu took out a bunch of eighth- and ninth-level demon pills from his Qiankun bag and said, "Putting these in the wine cellar will be considered as paying for them, so it's not stealing."
You Fushi looked at Zang Liu: "Really?"
"Really!" Zang Liu said with certainty.
So the two of them walked towards the wine cellar in a swaggering manner. On the way, when Crying Blood Sword saw You Fu, he smelled the scent on his body and was a little intoxicated.
As they walked away, they began to struggle frantically.
It has to be said that Ye Su's formation was strong enough. The weeping blood spirit surrounded the body of his sword and bit it madly with its mouth for a long time before it finally tore open a hole and broke free.
The Blood-Crying Sword flew towards the direction You Fushi went, sniffing the scent all the way and followed it into the wine cellar.
You Fushi's blood was extremely tempting to him, but when he rushed over, Ye Su's words rang in his ears again. She would not allow herself to hurt the people from Qianjimen.
Qixue shrank into the sword, the evil in his eyes grew stronger and stronger, and he just wanted to suck You Fushi's blood!
The Blood-Crying Sword whizzed and flew towards You Fushi's back at high speed. Just as it was about to stab him, suddenly a person carrying a turtle shell jumped behind You Fushi.
"Demon Lord, drink this..." Zang Liu just said this, and then he felt his tortoise shell being poked, "Who dares to poke the tortoise?"
A thousand-year-old turtle monster appeared halfway, crying blood and being furious. It floated out directly from the sword, grabbed Zang Liu, pressed him to the ground, and opened its mouth to bite Zang Liu's turtle shell.
“Crack, crack…” Qixue ate the meat with a crunch.
"Ah—" Zang Liuyi turned his head and saw a man with a red body biting his turtle shell. His defenses were immediately broken and he screamed, "Monster Lord! Save my turtle's life!!!"
You Fushi turned around and grabbed Qixue, then pulled the spirit and the turtle apart. Qixue turned around and bit his wrist to drink his blood.
However, some blood cannot be drunk casually. After just taking a sip, Qixue realized that something was wrong. He could not bear the power of this blood. If he drank too much, he would be controlled, so he immediately let go.
But one of the necessary conditions for You Fushi to become the demon lord is that he can fight.
Although Qixue was relieved, You Fushi was already angry.
You Fushi hated being hurt by others. The reason why those demon kings were defeated by him was that they attacked him first.
When You Fu grabbed the tearful head, he soaked it in the jar of wine. After each soak, he picked it up and smashed it to the ground, making a loud bang.
Then, two voices were heard in the wine cellar at the same time.
"Woo woo woo, the turtle's shell is broken!!!"
"I won't drink you... Gulp Gulp... Stop smashing it..."
Zang Liu turned his head and looked at his tortoise shell, which was broken. His face was filled with despair and he had lost all hope in life. After a while, he said to You Fushi, "Monster Lord, please send the tortoise back. Maybe the tortoise shell can be repaired."
You Fushi held the teardrop in one hand and cut open the space with the other. Zang Liu immediately wiped his tears and rushed back to Pinghai.
Although Zang Liu had left, You Fushi was still angry. He grabbed Qixue and rammed him against the cellar next to him, saying, "Ugly thing."
He cried blood and felt hopeless. His hands and feet completely dropped. He wanted to resist but had no way. He was controlled by the blood as soon as it touched him: "..."
When Ye Su returned to Qianji Gate, You Fushi had already come out with the law-abiding Blood-Crying Sword and bumped into her.
"You went to the wine cellar?" Ye Su asked, smelling the alcohol on him. Then she saw You Fushi holding the Bloodthirsty Sword in his hand, "You broke the formation?"
You Fushi shook his head with a childish look, looking at the Bloodthirsty Sword in his hand and said, "He ran to the wine cellar, I chased him, and he bit me."
Ye Su's eyes fell on his wrist, and indeed saw blood stains: "Did he touch your blood?"
You Fushi nodded and said with some pride: "It was only a little bit, but I caught it."
Ye Su frowned and stepped forward to touch the wound on his wrist. After her spiritual power was restored, she took the Bloodthirsty Sword and said, "I thought you went to the wine cellar with Zang Liu."
You Fushi, who was cheating for the first time, felt guilty instantly. His eyes wandered and he confessed, "I didn't steal the wine. I gave the demon pill as a reward."
Ye Su couldn't help but laugh out loud: "I know."
In fact, the second time Zang Liu sneaked in, he had already been discovered, but he was suppressed by Ye Su and everyone pretended not to know.
"You are unhappy." You Fushi glanced at Ye Su secretly. Although she had a smile on her face since they met, he knew she was unhappy.
"No." Ye Su paused and added, "I'm just thinking about something."
She looked at You Fushi and asked, "Is he the God of Control?"
What does the divine silence spell cast by the upper realm have to do with him
In order to prevent his junior fellow apprentice from noticing anything unusual, Ye Su took the Blood-Crying Sword instead and prepared to make a scabbard for it.
…
The bark of the sacred Bodhi tree is thin and its surface looks like ancient silver metal. It took Ye Su two months just to refine the bark. Finally, he covered the body of the Blood-Crying Sword with the refined bark. No one could tell that it was a scabbard. It looked more like the Blood-Crying Sword had changed its color.
In any case, the evil energy emitted by the Blood-Crying Sword at any time and place was mostly suppressed.
During this period, she also discovered that when the Blood-Crying Sword was afraid of You Fu, unlike her who relied on various means to suppress it, the Blood-Crying Sword seemed to be naturally afraid of him.
Under the leadership of Ye Su and the remaining two elders, Qianji Sect gradually got back on track. A group of new disciples emerged and they will surely become the pillars of Qianji Sect in time.
Before the one-year deadline was about to arrive, the three gods finally completed the task of suppressing the divine essence. Chongming God was worried about Qianji Sect, and finally came back to see them, with the other two gods also by his side.
Ye Su took Chongming Shen and the others for a walk. She couldn't tell them what would happen ten thousand years later, so she didn't try to tell them.
"We have already erected a stone tablet to suppress them in the small secret realm. It will take at least tens of thousands of years for them to come out." Buddha Demon God said, "By that time, the passage to the upper realm should be open. Then we will ask the imperial god to eliminate them personally."
"If the stone tablet breaks prematurely, how can we repair it?" Ye Su asked him.
Buddha Demon God was startled: "The spiritual energy in the small secret realm is scarce, we can come down before the stone tablet breaks."
"There are too many variables in ten thousand years." Ye Su asked again, "If the stone tablet is broken, is there any way to repair it?"
"Yes." Buddha Demon God thought for a moment and said, "Go find the best cold crystal mud. If the stone tablet is broken, you can apply it to glue it together and support it for a while."
Cold crystal mud, a familiar name.
Ye Su lowered her eyes and said she understood. Before the three gods were about to leave, she couldn't help but chase them and asked, "What does it mean if the Ascension Thunder disappears?"
Chongming God turned around and said: "The Ascension Thunder cannot disappear unless something happens to the God in charge of the Thunder Tribulation."
When this sentence reached Ye Su's ears, the three gods had disappeared and returned to the upper realm. At the same time, the passage from the upper realm to the lower realm was also closed, and no gods would descend into the three realms anymore.
Something happened to the god who controls the thunder tribulation
Ye Su looked up at the sky. Ten thousand years later, the passage to the upper world was not opened. Instead, the ascension thunder disappeared, and no one could ascend again. This meant that the passage from the lower world to the upper world was closed.
It’s actually closed.
…
The departure of the three supreme gods and the closure of the passage to the upper realm did not seem to have much impact on the three realms, and all those who were still alive continued to move forward.
Penglai had a new leader, who was still extremely ordinary and whose appearance could be forgotten at a glance. No one knew how to inform the Penglai disciples.
Ye Su also advanced again, and became a peak powerful being in the late stage of tribulation. She had basically no rivals in the Three Realms, but she stopped there, and there was no sign of becoming a god and ascending in the past year.
On the contrary, after many twists and turns, the Alchemy Sect’s master actually managed to create the Nine-Turn Soul-Restoring Pill two years after returning to the sect.
On the day of Danzong's formation, the entire sky of Danzong was covered with purple clouds. All the sects were alarmed and looked over there from afar.
Dan Qi is lingering, and ascension thunder is descending. The Dan Sect’s master is about to ascend.
Ye Su stood on the top of Jiuxuan Peak and looked into the distance. His spiritual sense easily saw the grand scene inside and outside the Dan Sect. Everyone looked up at the sky.
This was the first time Ye Su saw real ascending thunder. It was extremely powerful, with dark clouds everywhere. The terrifying posture of the purple thunder sweeping away everything was daunting.
However, the Alchemy Sect's master had already refined a magic elixir, so it was not difficult for him to ascend to heaven this time. The thunder looked terrifying, but when it really struck him, it lacked some murderous intent.
The ascension thunder fell for the seventeenth day in a row, and the Alchemy Sect's master finally succeeded in ascending. He left the lower realm with his furnace and rushed to the upper realm.
For a time, there was a constant stream of visitors to the Dan Sect. Ye Su sent people to deliver gifts and then continued to practice.
After the excitement of the Danzong's master ascending to godhood had passed, three months had passed, and Ye Su still showed no signs of a breakthrough.
But someone from Danzong suddenly came and said he wanted to find Ye Su.
Ye Su put down his cultivation and rushed to the meeting hall. The one who came was the leader of Dan Sect.
"The Sect Master is looking for me?" Ye Su asked after coming in.
The leader of the Dan Sect ignored him and took out a pill box: "The Holy Hand asked me to give this to you before he ascended. He was able to ascend with the help of Fellow Daoist Ye."
Although Ye Su was still in charge of Qianji Sect, she had never been the sect leader, not even an elder, so outsiders only called her a fellow Taoist.
"The Holy Hand produced five useless pills and two Nine-transformation Soul-restoring Pills in one furnace. He took one of them away." The leader of the Dan Sect said, "This one belongs to Fellow Daoist Ye."
Ye Su stared at the pill box in the hands of the Dan Sect leader. The sense of fate that could not be escaped came to her mind again. After a long while, she asked, "Will there be anyone in the Dan Sect who can refine the Nine-transformation Soul-restoring Pill in the future?"
“No.” The leader of the Dan Sect shook his head and said, “One of the ingredients for the Nine-Turn Soul-Restoring Pill has been used up. There is no more of that ingredient in the Three Realms. Besides, the last remnant was also destroyed by the Holy Hand.”
Ye Su frowned: "Why destroy the remaining scroll?"
Now that the Nine-Turn Soul-Restoring Pill has been made, the incomplete scroll should be completed, written down and handed over to the Dan Sect. Even if the materials are used up, there may be other materials to replace them in the future.
The leader of the Dan Sect seemed to see what Ye Su was thinking, and smiled and said, "The Holy Hand was worried that someone would use evil methods to make the medicinal materials, so he destroyed them. When the passage is opened in the future, he will bring the materials and the entire scroll to the lower world."
Ye Su looked at the hopeful face of the Dan Sect's leader, unable to reveal what would happen ten thousand years later.
"I'll leave the Nine-Turn Soul-Restoring Pill to Fellow Daoist Ye." The leader of the Dan Sect nodded at her, then turned and left.
Ye Su lowered her head and stared at the
He slowly opened the pill box and smelled the familiar scent of pills.
One thing after another pushed her forward.
…
On the second day, Ye Su went to the intersection of the three realms alone. The collapsed hall was cleaned up. Probably because the passage to the upper realm was closed and the Three Realms Conference was no longer held, no new hall was built. Only the rotating tower remained standing at the intersection of the three realms.
She looked up at the rotating tower, counting from the first floor to the highest floor, a total of eight floors.
Ye Su had also inquired about this and found out that the rotating tower only had eight floors and there was no ninth floor. There was no such thing as a tower spirit either. It was just an ordinary tower that provided trials for disciples from the three realms.
Now the formation of the rotating tower can no longer work on Ye Su, and she can walk in easily.
Walking from the first floor to the eighth floor, Ye Su looked up at the ordinary tower top and finally figured out one thing.
The so-called ninth floor and tower spirit are just fake news released by someone.
The revolving tower had clearly been modified by someone. A formation was set up on the top of the tower, and the seeds of the sacred Bodhi tree were added. With the divine power contained within, she was able to return to the period of the gods' death ten thousand years ago.
As for who this person is...
Ye Su lowered her head and took out the seed emitting purple light, smiled bitterly, and realized that this person was herself.
Or, soon to be herself.
Ye Su stayed in the rotating tower for a whole month until You Fushi kept messaging her and she came out of the tower.
…
As soon as they returned to Qianjimen, You Fushi ran to find her and asked where Ye Su had gone and why she didn't take him out with her.
"Don't you like me and just want to trick me into practicing dual cultivation with you?" You Fushi asked seriously.
Ye Su was stunned, and a smile appeared in her eyes: "Where did you learn that from? I don't dislike you."
You Fushi has read a lot of books recently, and also told Zang Liu about Ye Su, but Zang Liu said that she abandoned him in the sect and ignored him, and it is very likely that she just fell in love with his face and tricked him into dual cultivation.
"I don't believe it." You Fushi turned his head away and deliberately avoided looking at Ye Su.
"I'll take you with me when I go out from now on." Ye Su looked at You Fu with a relaxed tone, but his eyes were so deep that they were impossible to see through.
You Fushi was easy to coax. After hearing this, he completely forgot Zang Liu's earnest advice to him to return to the demon world and not be deceived physically and mentally. He looked at Ye Su with crooked eyes and said, "You promised."
"Well." Ye Su suddenly said to You Fushi, "How about I teach you how to practice sword?"
"Okay." You Fushi agreed without hesitation. He liked Ye Su teaching him things.
From that day on, he practiced sword with Ye Su from afternoon to night. Sometimes he was too tired and didn't want to go down the mountain. He often turned into a small black snake and hung on Ye Su's wrist, staying in her room and refusing to leave.
You Fushi is no slower than Ye Su in learning things. He is born with the ability to learn everything that is very difficult for ordinary people.
As spring passed and autumn came, the two of them practiced all the sword manuals they had collected.
Ye Su understood her sword intent, and You Fushi also had his own sword intent.
During this period, Ye Su took You Fushi to the place of inheritance several times, collected all the natural treasures there, gave them to You Fushi, and asked him to keep them within the realm.
At her level, refining weapons is easy for her and she can sell them at high prices. With the support of Qianji Gate, her financial resources are needless to say.
Ye Su always liked to take You Fushi to pick out the most beautiful clothes and the most precious elixirs, and kept them all in his realm.
One day, Ye Su asked You Fushi why he had never reached the Thunder Stage. As a result, a thunder tribulation appeared above his head the next day.
"The thunder tribulation of the middle stage of Mahayana?" Ye Su watched You Fushi pass the tribulation and laughed in his heart, "Who did you see passing the tribulation and learned this from?"
He had no thunder tribulation at all, but unlike Linglong Gu, You Fu Shi was obviously a higher being.
“… Zang Liu.” You Fushi said with a guilty conscience.
"Let's go back." Ye Su didn't delve into the matter further and took him back to Qianjimen.
Sometimes, Ye Su would make an excuse that he had to deal with Qianji Sect's affairs, leaving You Fu Shi behind in the sect and leaving alone.
Every time at this time, she would either be missing something or bring back something, and You Fushi didn't know about this.
Ye Su also intended to let him come into contact with other people and experience various things in the world of cultivation. Only by knowing people and understanding things can he mature quickly.
However, whether it was the elders and disciples of Qianji Sect or the people from the outer sect, they never seemed to underestimate You Fu Shi, and did not dare to make any small moves in front of him.
Ye Su was not very clear about this. Most of the time, You Fushi remained the same in front of her.
Innocent and childish.
…
The courtyard on Jiuxuan Peak was empty. When Ye Su came out of the room, You Fushi was standing in front of the stone table under a tree in the courtyard. When he heard the door open, he turned around and smiled at her.
Ye Su stared at the person under the tree in a daze. She had seen this scene in Penglai before. Ten thousand years later, the chief emissary took out the painting. She thought that her junior brother was once the chief emissary, so she saved Xuanyin's body without hesitation.
You Fushi walked quickly towards Ye Su and waved his hand in front of her eyes: "Ye Su!"
Ye Su came back to her senses and held his hand: "Why don't you call me Senior Sister again?"
Only in the initial period would You Fushi obediently call her "Big Sister". Later, for some reason, he stopped calling her that.
"No shouting." You Fushi refused firmly.
Zang Liu said that they would practice dual cultivation in the future, and they could not call her Senior Sister, as it was wrong in terms of generations.
Ye Su was also used to him not calling her 'senior sister', so she pulled her junior brother to sit down and said, "I have something to do and I have to go out for a while, you stay in the sect."
"Oh." You Fushi suddenly asked, "Ye Su, when will you ascend? They said you will soon ascend to the upper realm."
Then he would have to become a god too, to be with her.
Ye Su let go of You Fushi's hand without leaving a trace: "... There is no sign of ascension yet."
