Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 286

[Chapter 285 Qingqing (Subscription Request)]

“It’s really… lively.”

Fang Xi stood in the canopy of a locust tree, silently watching the foundation-building battle taking place in the deserted house: “I didn’t expect… to see another familiar face, Situ Qingqing…”

Long before he entered the teahouse, he had sensed the Qingmu Sect’s foundation-building cultivator who was disguised as a Qi-refining cultivator, so he found it interesting.

At the same time, he also discovered the aura of demonic skills lingering around the man in the black fog.

If it was someone else, he might not be able to confirm it, but who made the other person practice the “Five Extremes Magic Art” that he was very familiar with?

Therefore, after the exchange meeting, Fang Xi followed the two people all the way and saw the scene of Qingmu Zong building his foundation while fishing.

Although the young man from the Situ family was very careful, he had nowhere to hide under the foundation-building consciousness.

However… the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. The Qingmu Sect’s foundation-building master could never have imagined that there would be an old ancestor who was so bored that he would follow him in secret.

Soon, Fang Xi saw this wonderful show.

“Situ Qingqing originally had a very high level of cultivation, but now she is seriously injured… It seems that she is only at the middle stage of foundation building. Her phantom spirit root is only good at illusion and hiding, and is not good at direct fighting… After her illusion was broken by this very interesting treasure, she was completely at a disadvantage when facing a late stage of foundation building…”

Fang Xi just watched quietly without intervening.

After all, although Situ Qingqing knew him, she was not familiar with him…

…

“Fixed light mirror?!”

When Situ Qingqing saw the silver mirror treasure, her expression changed drastically: “Good, good, good… Qingmu Sect really wants to kill us all! I hate… I hate why I have to work for Qingmu Sect and put aside my family hatred for this!”

Back then, the Situ family was pushed to be wiped out by the Xuantian Sect, causing this woman to suffer a lot.

Fortunately, with the secret support of Qingmu Sect of Mu Kingdom, the family was able to move to Mu Kingdom for training.

After all, the Qingmu Sect was still hostile to the Xuantian Sect back then, so it was natural for them to do such a thing.

Therefore, Situ Qingqing also worked for Qingmu Sect, whether it was stirring up the chaos in Wandao Lake or the outbreak of the war, he personally led people into Yue State, burning, killing and looting along the way, and finally even killed the previous head of Xuantian Sect, which was regarded as revenge for the family blood feud!
However… Later, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, Yiling Valley invaded the two countries, and Qingmu Sect actually joined forces with Xuantian Sect!

Even if Situ Qingqing was unwilling, she had to follow the decision of the Jindan Patriarch and put aside her hatred temporarily.

But he didn’t expect… In the end, he would be killed after the cunning rabbit dies!
Lu Qing failed to win over Fang Xi, and he was unable to cultivate a second Jindan in Qingmu Sect, even if it was a fake one… Naturally, he could only start preparing for his death.

Relying on the sect’s completed foundation and the third-level formation, it would not be a problem to temporarily maintain the foundation.

The next step is to deal with some unstable factors in Mu Kingdom.

For example, he has the potential to complete the foundation building and has the power of the devil!

Unfortunately, the Situ family is among them!

Situ Qingqing had been ambushed and severely injured before, so she had no choice but to hide in the mortal world to recuperate. She even almost died because of the excessive loss of her vitality caused by the use of her secret techniques.

Only the person from the Situ family would be so anxious to buy a second-level longevity pill for her.

But he didn’t expect that the longevity pill was also a trap!
At this time, under the brilliance of the Dingguang Mirror, all illusions were exposed.

The monkey-faced man who was building his foundation was controlling a set of flying knives and spiritual weapons and was attacking Situ Qingqing fiercely.

Next to Situ Qingqing was the young man from before, his head and body already separated.

“Master?”

“Protect the master!”

“Fight him!”

When the last few members of the Situ family in the deserted house saw this scene, they roared and used their secret techniques.

Some of them had bloodshot eyes and dark blue skin, as if they had transformed themselves into zombies, and pounced towards the monkey-faced foundation-building warrior.

“No…don’t…”

Situ Qingqing’s face was filled with anxiety. She controlled a small black flag that emitted a dark light, but could only barely protect herself. Then she saw her relatives being killed by the flying knives one by one.

Seeing this, several black streaks suddenly appeared on her face, and sharp fangs grew out, as if she had turned into an evil ghost with a green face and fangs.

“The art of transformation into the underworld?! You can actually still perform it…are you trying to save your life?”

The monkey-faced man retreated violently while building his foundation, looking extremely fearful, and summoned a huge green tortoise shell shield to protect himself.

The next moment,
a red flame erupted in the deserted house, and a beam of light hit the “Fixing Light Mirror” directly, causing the mirror to scream and fall to the ground.

Figures flew up from the deserted house and went in all directions. They were all “Situ Qingqing”!
The monkey-faced foundation-building master chased after her all the way, but in the end he found out that he was just chasing an illusion, so he returned in disappointment…

…

“The combination of phantom spiritual roots and magic secrets… is really good. Even I, who am still in the foundation-building period, will make mistakes if I am not careful.”

“But now it won’t happen anymore…”

Fang Xi released his spiritual sense, covering an area of dozens of miles, and followed Situ Qingqing slowly.

Situ Qingqing flew hundreds of miles, but finally couldn’t hold on any longer and fell headfirst onto a hillside.

“Great aunt, great aunt…”

In her arms, there was a little girl, crying pitifully.

Suddenly, the girl’s eyes blurred, and she saw a flash of green light, and a figure seemed to “grow” directly out of the grass.

She immediately stood in front of Situ Qingqing and shouted in a baby voice: “Don’t hurt my great aunt!”

“Grandma…”

Fang Xi’s mouth twitched slightly. He touched his smooth cheek, looked at Situ Qingqing with gray hair, and couldn’t help but sighed: “We are all old…”

…

The night breeze is cool.

Situ Qingqing shuddered and woke up.

When she opened her eyes, she saw the bright moonlight and seemed to be lying on a lawn somewhere.

There is the fragrance of grass and trees wafting around, bringing a sense of tranquility and peace.

“Friend Situ, you finally woke up.”

A young voice came, which startled Situ Qingqing.

She stood up quickly, only to see a completely unexpected person standing with his hands behind his back, looking at the moonlight.

At the other person’s feet, there was a little girl lying, who seemed to be sleeping soundly.

“Greetings…Ancestor Fang!”

Seeing Fang Xi unmasked, Situ Qingqing’s expression became extremely complicated, and then she bowed deeply: “Thank you for saving me, ancestor!”

“I didn’t save you. You broke through the siege by yourself…”

Fang Xi shook his head: “It’s a pity… your energy and blood are already extremely weak now. I’m afraid you will die in an instant…”

“Yes, I am going to die…”

Situ Qingqing seemed to have thought of something, and she slapped her storage bag, and a second-level longevity pill emerged.

“This pill looks normal, but in fact, there is no vitality inside… It is a fake pill.”

Fang Xi shook his head and said calmly.

“It seems… Qingqing is really going to die here today.”

Situ Qingqing showed a sad smile on her face: “It is Qingqing’s blessing to have a real person to send Qingqing off…!”

“Well, I have a question for you.”

Fang Xi suddenly asked, “Island Master Ruan Xingling, has anyone come to see you in recent years?”

Now that he had met her, he might as well ask her, so that the effort of tracking her for so long would not be in vain.

“Sister Ruan? Isn’t she in Wandao Lake?”

Situ Qingqing answered in surprise.

Fang Xi released his spiritual sense, not missing any subtle expression on Situ Qingqing’s face.

Judging from the answer, this woman should be telling the truth.

“It seems that… Ruan Xingling really has some ambition to form a pill. If she is completely desperate, she will definitely go to Wu Kingdom to avenge her disciple Ruan Dan before her life span runs out.”

Fang Xi muttered to himself, then stood with his hands behind his back, without any intention of helping, ready to watch Situ Qingqing pass away.

Situ Qingqing looked at Fang Xi, but suddenly bowed down: “I have one more thing to ask…”

“Is it for this little girl?”

Fang Xi looked at the little girl who had fainted into sleep, seeming to be thinking about something.

“This girl is the only direct descendant of the Situ family… I dare not ask the master to take her in, I only ask that you give her a place to stay…”

Situ Qingqing said sadly.

“If you want a place to stay, isn’t it easy? Just find a rich family in a mortal city and send them to you…”

Fang Xi’s mouth curved slightly: “It’s not bad to be a mortal and live a peaceful life… As for me, I have already decided to leave the Three Kingdoms. I can’t take this burden with me.”

Situ Qingqing’s eyes were filled with despair.

But she had lived for nearly two hundred years after all, and her temperament was tough: “If this is the case, there is nothing we can do… I hate it so much, why is the heaven so unfair, treating my Situ family so harshly! Why couldn’t I build a foundation, couldn’t I form an elixir…”

“Your foundation was built by blood sacrifice, so naturally you can’t form a pill…”

Fang Xi sighed.

“Although I have phantom spiritual roots, they are low-grade spiritual roots… In terms of cultivation speed, I am not as fast as those with middle-grade five-element spiritual roots. I failed several times in building my foundation… If I hadn’t used the method of stealing the immortal foundation, how could I have succeeded in building my foundation? However, once this method is used, I will be immortal and have no hope of forming a pill… If I can succeed in building my foundation and kill my enemies, it can be considered a wish come true…”

Situ Qingqing took one last look at the sleeping little girl and began to hum an unknown song.

Her magic power was dissipating, and her skin was becoming old and loose…

It was clearly a sign of passing away!

“Master Fang…please answer my last question! The man outside the Qingzhu Mountain Market that year…”

Situ Qingqing’s voice became weaker and weaker, and finally she let out a long breath and curled up into a ball.

“You are probably just being sentimental. I was just seeing my enemy and I was just jealous…”

Fang Xi sighed and released a little real fire, burning Situ Qingqing to ashes, then waved his hand.

He took a storage bag in his hand.

The next day.

A beam of green light carrying a little girl flashed a few times above this nameless mountain, and then disappeared…

On the top of the nameless mountain, a tomb appeared at some point, with a tombstone without any words standing in front of it.

A breeze blew, and several white petals fell on the monument without words…
