Chapter 1090: Generous Gift, Mutation of the Gold-Eating Bug
"Ancestor, you just said that you could let us go to the place you recommended. Why do you want to go back on your word now?" Chen Xuan said with a wry smile.
Yuling Zhenjun glared at Chen Xuan, and then said: "I have never regretted it. It's just that I respect your original thoughts more."
"We cultivators seem to be practicing step by step, but now, do you know what the original heart is?"
Chen Xuan shook his head blankly.
Master Yuling swept his eyes over everyone, and seeing that no one could answer, he said, "The so-called original heart is what you think deep in your heart."
Chen Xuan looked puzzled.
"Grandmaster, let me give you an example. For example, I have recently been eager to break through to the Void Refining Stage, with the goal of saving my life in the great catastrophe of heaven and earth. Could it be that this kind of highly purposeful thought is all my own original thought?"
"Haha, how do you know that this is not what you really think?"
Although Master Yuling asked back, he couldn't help but look up to Chen Xuan in his heart.
"Every move we cultivators make is actually from our heart. Whether you work hard to cultivate in order to survive this catastrophe or to pursue immortality, it is your own choice. Since it is your own choice, why is it not the choice of your heart?"
Chen Xuan seemed to understand something.
There was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Soon, he fell into deep thought.
True Lord Yuling looked at Chen Xuan in surprise but did not speak directly.
He didn't let anyone disturb him.
After waiting for just over an hour, Chen Xuan opened his eyes by himself.
There was a hint of joy in his expression after enlightenment.
"Thank you for clearing up my confusion!"
Chen Xuan thanked him sincerely.
"Just understand it yourself."
True Lord Yuling nodded, and then explained: "Originally, I did intend to shamelessly send you to that place. But now that I think about it, this is actually what I wanted to do."
"However, you guys all have your own ideas. I can't ignore your own thoughts just because of my own conscience."
"I can give you a chance, but I won't interfere with your choice. Just do what you want."
"It is said in the ancient immortal world that among the forty-nine great ways of evolution, one is missing! Why can't the evolution of the great way be perfected? It is because of that missing one. In my opinion, this missing one is the true original heart!"
"Don't be influenced by the secular world, the rules of the fairy world, or others. Be truly free and do everything according to your own ideas. This is the real ray of hope!"
The Golden Bird Fairy looked confused, and Wu Zhaomei seemed to understand something but couldn't fully comprehend it.
Master Zimang had no idea what these words meant.
Only Chen Xuan's eyes lit up.
"Old Ancestor, do you mean that when the great catastrophe of heaven and earth comes, we have to do what the one who escaped has to do?"
"Ahem, the secret cannot be revealed. You can only guess it yourself."
Master Yuling coughed lightly and did not give Chen Xuan the correct answer.
Chen Xuan suddenly realized.
Thank you again to Master Yuling.
“Haha, you little guys have a deep bond with me. Since I am your ancestor, I have to give you some benefits when the catastrophe of heaven and earth begins.”
When Master Yuling said this, he immediately flipped his palm.
Several spirit gathering talismans suddenly appeared in his palm.
"These spirit gathering talismans were condensed by me with great effort."
"Come on, come on, one for each of you, keep it to save your life."
Soon, Master Zimang, Chen Xuan, Wu Zhaomei, and Fairy Jindie each got one.
Chen Xuan, who had personally experienced the power of the Soul Gathering Talisman, liked the Soul Gathering Talisman given by True Lord Yuling even more.
"Ancestor, the spirit gathering talisman you gave me really helped me a lot. Especially when I was dealing with a powerful enemy at the virtual level, it played a huge role. I'm sure this one will not be too bad either." Chen Xuan said with a smile.
"Haha, kid, you only know how to take advantage of me. However, you can say that, it is not in vain. Although this Soul Gathering Talisman was made by me personally, its power is not weak. But whether you can survive the catastrophe of heaven and earth depends on your own ability. I can't interfere."
Lord Yuling explained.
Soon, he looked at Chen Xuan and the others and said, "Okay, I'll stop here with what I have to say about the catastrophe of heaven and earth. You can go and do your own things."
"As for Jin Die and Mei Er, if you two want to go to Sishui City, go ahead."
Everyone thanked him and left immediately.
Only Chen Xuan was left alone.
Yuling Zhenjun looked at Chen Xuan in surprise: "Why don't you leave?"
"Ancestor, I'm just worried about you!"
"Why are you worried about me?"
"You are injured, do you need me to make medicine for you?"
"This...can you tell?"
True Lord Yuling looked surprised.
Seeing Chen Xuan nodded, he laughed and scolded "little monster" before saying, "I did get a little injured when I went to Sishui City this time. But it's not serious, so you don't need to worry about me."
"This Yuling Sect, like us cultivators, has its own calamity. It cannot be forced."
"But please don't talk nonsense about the old man's injury."
After seeing Chen Xuan nod, Yuling Zhenjun said, "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"This... that's all. I just care about why the ancestor was injured!"
"You kid... you overexerted yourself while refining the Soul Gathering Talisman for you guys, and you're injured. Is that ok? Get out of here right now, so I can have a rest!"
"Yes!"
Chen Xuan agreed and left.
Not long after Chen Xuan left, Old Man Zhang appeared in the meeting hall.
However, when he looked at Master Yuling, a gloating smile appeared on his face.
"I never thought that you, an old fellow, would get injured. It seems that the little fellow you personally trained is quite powerful!"
"Haha, of course. But now is not the time to talk about these things. My Yuling Sect is growing stronger and stronger. You should not be idle. If you have time, you can help with the affairs of the Yuling Sect."
"Haha, you also have the time to ask me for help? This is really rare!"
"Well, this time I owe you one."
"In that case, what do you want me to do?"
"Mei'er and Jindie are going to Sishui City. You go out and tell those guys to take care of them secretly. It won't be difficult for you, right?"
"Why don't you go by yourself?"
"My face is too big, it's not suitable!"
"All right!"
Old Man Zhang agreed.
He glanced at Master Yuling and said, "Even you are injured, this..."
"It's out of the way!"
……
After leaving the meeting hall, Chen Xuan quickly caught up with Wu Zhaomei and took her back to his cave in Qingyun Mountain.
hum!
With a wave of his hand, the protective formation in the cave was instantly activated.
Before Wu Zhaomei could speak, Chen Xuan said, "Mei'er, you..."
"Husband, this is Mei'er's own choice, so don't blame her. Besides, do you really want Mei'er to be a vase by your side for the rest of her life?"
"This... If that's the case, I understand you. However, Sishui City is extremely dangerous. You and Senior Sister Jindie must be careful when you go there."
"Don't worry, we have it in mind."
"Yes. If that's the case, let's hurry up and practice. The catastrophe of heaven and earth is about to come, and we can't waste a minute or a second."
Chen Xuan explained and took Wu Zhaomei into the secret training room.
Soon, the two appeared on the first floor of the Fairy Beast Tower.
After Wu Zhaomei entered the state of cultivation, Chen Xuan did not practice.
Instead, he carefully recalled his conversation with Master Yuling.
The more Chen Xuan thought about it, the more confused he became.
After thinking seriously for a while and realizing that he couldn't come up with any results, Chen Xuan left the spot.
When he appeared again, he was already in the fire-attributed mimicry space.
Not long after, Chen Xuan appeared in front of Fu Xing's cave.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Chen, why are you here? You're really a rare guest!" Fu Xing laughed.
"There are some things I can't figure out, so I'd like to ask for some advice, senior." Chen Xuan said with a smile.
"Humph, I don't have any relationship with you, why should I help you for nothing?"
"If you agree to help me, I can help you in the future. For example, I can help you collect some natural treasures to condense your physical body, etc."
"really?"
"Of course I won't lie!"
"If so, if you have any questions, please tell me in detail."
Chen Xuan nodded, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked, "Senior, have you ever seen a human cultivator in the Jiaolong Temple?"
"Haha, of course. Isn't it you?"
"Senior, besides Mei'er and me?"
"Besides you and your dual cultivation partner, I think of someone. Although that guy appears to be in the late stage of Spiritualization, I can see that he is just a disguise."
"What...what does he look like?"
"Hehe, I remember your appearance, too."
Fu Xing chuckled.
With a point of his finger in the air, a curtain of light suddenly appeared in front of Chen Xuan.
Soon, the portrait of Master Yuling appeared on the light screen.
After reading it, Chen Xuan was immediately surprised.
"Senior, are you sure you remembered it correctly?"
"Haha, the memory of us immortal cultivators is very strong. I will certainly not make a mistake."
“It’s really the ancestor!”
Chen Xuan muttered softly, and for some reason Fu Xing showed a look of surprise.
"You mean, you are this guy's descendant?"
"Why do you ask this question, Senior?"
"Haha, no wonder I always felt a familiar aura about you when I saw you. It turns out you are related to him."
Fu Xing explained.
Seeing Chen Xuan's curious expression, he said again: "You, the ancestor, are not a simple character. Little guy, I want to congratulate you."
"This……"
Chen Xuan was stunned, with a hint of confusion on his face.
"I really can't see through you anymore. But I don't have any ill will towards me. If that's the case, there's no need for me to delve into this matter."
Chen Xuan muttered to himself, and after asking Fu Xing some more information about Master Yuling, he immediately turned around and left.
When it appeared again, it was in the wood-attributed mimicry space.
At this moment, the Green Water Dragon King was diligently cultivating the medicinal fields.
Not far away, a large group of ant-sized spirit insects were flying in the void, flapping their short wings.
It's the gold-eating bug.
When Chen Xuan's divine sense swept over these gold-eating insects.
When he saw that the number of these gold-eating bugs was obviously half of what it was before, he immediately showed a look of confusion.
"Why did the number of gold-eating insects suddenly decrease so much? Could it be..."
