Xuanmen Prodigal Son

Chapter 699: The bamboo whip beats the true destiny, the picture is not too beautiful

Views:

The more Chu Tianxiao did this, the more guilty the three elders felt.

Look at his behavior, his noble character, his selfless kindness... Compared with this young man, we are all living like dogs at our old age!

The more I think about it, the more ashamed I feel.

At this time, the three elders didn't care about the other bamboo-cultivating geniuses anymore, and simply waved their hands to let them leave on their own. This scene naturally disappointed those people, and they secretly regretted why they followed the crowd and mocked Chu Tianxiao for no reason. Otherwise... at least they could have gained a friendship!

Yes, at this point, as long as they are not blind, they can see that Chu Tianxiao has become a favorite in the eyes of the three elders... But such a person was previously treated as a fool by them and laughed at over and over again...

When they thought of this, the group of people felt like crying.

Well... I will definitely get nothing this time. I should think that he is generous of me for not suffering for it... Or maybe he simply doesn't want to bother with people like me

Everyone felt all the ups and downs in their hearts at the same time, but they could only suppress them and leave in shame.

After that, the three elders spoke with a bit of shyness, first apologizing, and then asking if they could borrow these bamboos to observe...

Chu Tianxiao naturally agreed to this - he would definitely use the spiritual spring to initiate the fifth realm in the future, so although these bamboos were valuable to him, they were not huge...

Of course, these three elders of the academy had no way of knowing this, so they were immediately moved by Chu Tianxiao's "magnanimity"... So, they proposed that the academy should organize an auction of these bamboos in the future, and give all the proceeds to the Chu family, which would be a "pleasant" way to add a 10 billion income to Chu Tianxiao's family!

Chu Tianxiao would not refuse this, but for him, squandering money is the best way to go. He never really cares about making money...

This gave the three elders the illusion that Chu Tianxiao still felt it was not enough... For a moment, they felt extremely ashamed, thinking that yes, although this was to provide protection, it was ultimately a matter of offering gifts to Buddha...

Gritting their teeth, the three elders once again offered a valuable gift... that is, they were willing to do their best to help Chu Tianxiao refine his newly acquired "Shadow Bamboo Heart" to improve its quality so that it can be used to refine some top-notch, or even surpass treasures in the future!

Chu Tianxiao was a little interested in this matter... The reason was simple, because he suddenly remembered that the weapon Lu Meir was using was a royal item. Although it couldn't be said to be bad, it didn't live up to the title of the goddess of destiny...

So, is it time to make a weapon for her

Hmm... Think about the future, when Lu Meir, the goddess of destiny, uses a dark green bamboo whip, which obviously does not have the slightest dazzling brilliance or shocking fluctuations, it can beat the princes of destiny from all sides so hard that they kneel down and beg for mercy...

Hmm... this picture is so beautiful.

After thinking about it for a while, Chu Tianxiao raised a faint smile and responded directly. Seeing this, the three elders finally straightened their backs and began to ask Chu Tianxiao what reward he wanted for passing the "level"...

According to the oath they made back then, as long as what Chu Tianxiao proposed did not violate their principles and did not exceed the limit of their strength, then they would do it no matter how difficult it was.

There are many things that can be mentioned, and corresponding to them is the change in the intensity of execution.

Chu Tianxiao was prepared when he heard the voice. He raised his finger and said calmly, "Two things..."

A few hours later.

With a thud.

Then the passage above a stone staircase suddenly opened, and Chu Tianxiao jumped up and landed steadily.

There is a bitter taste in the nose.

"Um?"

Chu Tianxiao looked carefully and saw a medicine furnace in front of him. It was burning slowly, as if some medicine was being brewed... Next to the medicine furnace, Lu Meir, who was called here to "treat an illness", was holding a small bowl and blowing into it with a bitter look on her face...

At this moment, she felt Chu Tianxiao coming, and immediately raised her head, rushed into Chu Tianxiao's arms and started to rub against him, while she said coquettishly: "Brother Tianxiao... This medicine is so bitter, I don't want to drink it..."

Hearing this, Chu Tianxiao touched her little head, then looked at Mr. Zhao who was writing a prescription. He was stunned at first, as if he didn't expect that this person was not only obsessed with martial arts secrets, but also studied medicine... But soon, he came back to his senses, clasped his fists and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Zhao."

"Everything has its cause and effect. Why thank you, old man?" Old man Zhao did not even raise his head, as if concentrating on the prescription. "It's just that... medicine is the main thing inside. If you want to cure this kind of 'strange disease', you still need external things to assist. Well, this is the realm of natural treasures and news... Have you asked the two brothers?"

Hearing this, Chu Tianxiao nodded and said, "Yes. I have asked all the questions that need to be asked. Fortunately... everything points to one place, so there is no need to go around in circles..."

After hearing this, Lu Meier was confused: "Brother Tianxiao, what did you ask? What... going around in circles, what... pointing to one place?"

Hearing this, Chu Tianxiao smiled faintly, but did not speak directly. Instead, he said, "Let's go back to Kyoto first."

A few days later.

Kyoto, Imperial Garden.

The golden array pattern floated in the air, and the golden array flag fluttered in the wind... Dozens of Chu family elders who were proficient in array formations held the array flag in their left hands and a blue array painting pen in their right hands, as if painting in the air, adding new array patterns, connecting old array patterns, and matching the array flags, gradually forming a picture of an open road...

If you look closely, you will find that these elders all look tired... Obviously, they have stayed here for quite some time. Fortunately, the Chu family has prospered in recent years and has sufficient manpower to take turns to replace them... Otherwise, they might not have been able to hold on until now.

"How long will it take?" Seeing the darkness ahead gradually being pushed out of a corner by the golden light, forming a light gate... Chu Tianxiao couldn't help but gaze slightly and asked.

“Reporting to the young patriarch, thanks to the magic method of opening the formation that you brought back, the road to becoming the emperor will be opened in at most one hour!” Upon hearing this, an elder of the Chu family said with pride and admiration despite his pale face.

"Hmm... It seems that the knowledge of the three elders is indeed amazing. I asked about the 'universal method' for this type of problem, but it worked. I think what they told me should be the top methods in the world... However, without you, everything would be in vain." Chu Tianxiao nodded and said, "Thank you all for your hard work."

"Young Patriarch, you're too polite." Upon hearing this, the elders were even more excited and activated the formation patterns one after another, making the light gate clearer...

I think that once the light gate is completely stable, I can use it to start the path to becoming the emperor.

There was naturally a reason why Chu Tianxiao went to so much trouble to accomplish this.

Thinking back to the time when Chu Tianxiao passed the ultimate test and seized the Imperial Garden, he learned some secrets of the Imperial Garden from the "old man". Combined with what the three elders of the academy said... He could infer that if Lu Meir wanted to completely "recover" from her stubborn illness, she had to obtain a special ornament called "Jian Jia Jade" from the inner room, and take medicine internally, using two methods at the same time...

In addition, there may be a method to restore the Six Paths Sword - this is of course just a possibility, after all, Chu Tianxiao would not be stupid enough to expose such a core treasure as the Six Paths Sword to others - but according to the comprehensive inference made by the three elders citing classics, there should be various secret scrolls in the inner room of the Imperial Garden that can be used to sacrifice and refine objects that surpass treasures, and even the long-lost "Great Space Technique" may exist in it...

Of course, they didn't know about the existence of the inner room of the Imperial Garden. They only said that according to historical records, there was such a place, but its location had long been unknown... However, the speaker was unintentional while the listener was intentional. Chu Tianxiao, based on various details, connected the "place" they were talking about with the inner room of the Imperial Garden!

I think... it should be a record left by some powerful people who are proficient in "exploring secret realms" hundreds of years ago, when the battle for the Imperial Garden had not yet begun and it itself had not yet appeared in Kyoto...

This also means that the Imperial Garden should be movable.

It had been searching for the "guide" the old man had mentioned, until it landed in Kyoto and seemed to have "felt something", so it stopped and started the fight for the Imperial Garden...

In the end, whether it was by chance or destiny... Chu Tianxiao became the "guide".

This also means that he is probably the only one in the world who can enter the inner room of the Imperial Garden.

Naturally, Lu Meir's strange disease fell on his shoulders alone.

"Well... Fortunately, before my uncle passed away, he opened up all the paths to the emperor... Now we just need to speed up the manifestation, so the difficulty is not too great... Otherwise, I'm afraid that with the current 'standard' of the vast land of China, it really wouldn't be enough."

Chu Tianxiao's mind moved slightly, and he looked towards the light door, sensing it carefully for a moment, and frowned slightly...

"From the faint aura coming out of the door... I have reached the middle realm of Soul Enlightenment. Whether I am qualified to enter is still uncertain..."

"I hope so."

There was no point in thinking about the unknown, so Chu Tianxiao simply sat down cross-legged, calmed his mind, adjusted himself to the best state, and waited for the critical moment to come.

However... This thing that was easy to do in the past is unexpectedly difficult today...

The reason is nothing but a series of dramatic changes that have taken place in the vast land of China in recent days...

First of all, the news that Ku's "real body" was the dean of the academy could not be concealed after all - perhaps the Hidden Sect had already prepared for the attack... In short, it didn't take long for the rumors to spread. If the three elders of the academy had not come out together, defeated all the questioning, and protected the academy with their supreme strength... then I'm afraid that there would be a lot of storms today.

Of course, even so, the Hidden Sect had made various follow-up preparations, but even they did not expect... Another major event actually happened during this period...

That is, the seal between the human and demon worlds... has appeared in the world!

This seal, which only appears once every four hundred years, has once again been fully revealed. Although it is still floating uncertainly... But its range has been gradually figured out, and is gradually shrinking and stabilizing...

What's worse is that the actions of the radical demons are much faster and crazier than humans imagined!

Seems to be to avenge the previous shame...

It seems like a desperate gamble.

This time, Cicada used almost all the strength at hand!

The overall situation is critical at the moment!
