The Disciple’s Diligence Makes the Master Seem Lazy - Chapter 147
[Chapter 147 Do you want to sleep or cultivate immortality [Additional chapter owes 65]]
The little monk walked over step by step, twisting his Buddhist beads, his eyes were moist, his face was calm, and he looked forward, and soon he came to the front.
Li Xu looked at him and asked, “What’s the situation?”
Mu Yishi shook his head and sighed:
“There is no clue about the Three Life Road in the direction I’m looking for. Let’s see them, but don’t hold out hope. If nothing unexpected happens, the Three Life Road will be inside.”
He pointed to the boundless Three Life River. This river is wide and boundless, and there will be a towering mountain standing every once in a while.
His expression was serious. If he entered this river, it would mean that death would come at any time.
This river is the real horror area. What they were looking for outside just now was just playing house. It can only be said that they were wandering around the periphery of the Three Life River.
“Pah pah…” Mu Yishi pinched the Buddhist beads, with helplessness in his eyes. If he was not poor, he would never risk entering this river.
Soon, in addition to the pair of brothers and sisters, the third son of the Demon Cave, the sword fairy Luo Yabai, the national teacher of the Kingdom of Women, the mute girl and the Miao Dou girl came to the entrance.
Everyone shook their heads.
In other words, no one had found any clues to the Three Life Road.
Their eyes had to focus on this green and black river. The water flow of this river was very calm.
But it always gave people a feeling that this river had a big problem.
They studied for half a day and finally decided to break into this terrifying area, but everyone looked at each other because no one had prepared a boat.
“You don’t prepare a boat, what are you doing here?” Li Xu thought they were so outrageous. They didn’t even want to buy a boat when they came here, and wanted to get something for nothing.
“Don’t you have one yourself?” The third son of the Demon Cave stared at Li Xu. How could he say that to others?
“I’m poor, and I want to use your boat.” Li Xu said.
He was only worth a million, how could he afford a defensive boat.
“I’ll go first, you can figure it out yourself.”
The third son of the Demon Cave was too lazy to talk to this group of poor people. He waved his hand, and a blue-white jade sedan flew out and landed on the river.
He jumped on the sedan, and her eight maids also jumped on it, and rushed into the Three Ways River at once.
Others also thought of other ways.
Sword Immortal Luo Yabai put his sword on the water and walked on it. Most people followed suit and walked on the water. The mute
girl did not fly the sword, but was as light as a swallow, gliding on the water.
A black insect escaped from the mouth of a woman in Miao Dou. The insect grew bigger, and they drove the insect into it.
Everyone used different methods to enter the Santu River.
Suddenly, only Li Xu, Da’er and the little monk were left.
Li Xu cursed and said, “This group of people is not reliable at all. They don’t even prepare a boat, and they still want to come to the Santu River. Dream on.”
Da’er whispered, “Brother, don’t we have no boat either?”
“The boat is so expensive, we can’t afford it. At least we need a defense-level boat to be useful, but a defense boat is so expensive. If it is broken, it will be in vain. Fortunately, I prepared it a long time ago.”
Li Xu took out a bronze coffin from his storage bag at this time. This is a fifth-grade magic weapon he got from the burial ground. This thing is quite powerful.
The little monk’s pupils shrank: “The sides of this coffin are all covered with mythical beast patterns, why is there a picture of a hell oil pan on the coffin lid?”
“I don’t know, I picked it up.”
Li Xu shook his head and stopped explaining.
He threw the bronze coffin on the water and pulled Daxu to stand on the coffin.
The little monk jumped up.
Li Xu controlled the coffin and slowly rushed into the Santu River.
The water surface of the Santu River was very calm, but the little monk secretly formed spiritual power to protect his body surface. He actually felt the cold coming.
“Brother, I’m a little cold too.” Daxu pulled Li Xu’s arm.
“Then just hold me, I’m quite warm.”
“Hey, I’m still here, can you two be more careful, it’s easy to affect your cultivation, okay?” The little monk cursed.
Li Xu ignored him.
He didn’t let Daxu hold him, but just held her hand, and she also held his hand, with a faint smile on her lips. The
golden spiritual power on Li Xu’s body was transferred to her body, and the two of them exchanged glances and smiled at each other.
The young monk closed his eyes, cursing the couple in his heart.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked ahead.
Li Xu and Daxu also looked ahead at the same time, because the third son of the Demon Cave and the sword fairy Luo Yabai, who were leading the way in the front, suddenly shouted:
“There is something in the river, everyone be careful.”
As soon as the words fell, Li Xu saw the calm river surface began to surge, the waves were rolling, and soon a huge monster jumped out of the water.
The thing was black all over, and it was hundreds of feet long.
It had two pairs of wings, four legs, and a body like steel. It seemed that there was magma gushing out of it. It jumped out of the water and raised thousands of feet of water waves.
“Quack quack quack…”
The sound of the chirping sounded like a toad.
The river water was bursting, ripples spread out, water splashed, and everyone looked a little unhappy.
“Brother, is this a toad?” Daxu asked, because the appearance of this behemoth was similar to that of a toad, but it was just stronger.
“I don’t know, it should be edible…” Li Xu licked his lips, and suddenly he felt a little hungry.
“Brother, didn’t I ask you if I could eat it?” Daxu was speechless.
“Ahem…” The little monk was speechless and said, “This thing can’t be eaten. This is a red-eyed stamen frog. Did you notice that its eyes are red? This thing is highly poisonous and can’t be eaten, especially its urine, which can corrode magic weapons.”
“Who cares what it is? Take my sword.” The sword fairy Luo Yabai looked calm.
There was no fluctuation in his heart. He slowly reached out and probed into the sword box behind him. He pressed the switch and heard a click.
A sharp long sword was held in his hand.
He had his left hand behind his back, holding a sword in his right hand, his eyes calm, and his Taoist robe fluttered without wind. Many of his fellow disciples and sisters behind him retreated.
Luo Yabai was a fifth-rank master, the only sword immortal in the Sword Pavilion, and the only disciple of the Sword God.
His swordsmanship had long been perfect.
There were only a few people in Daozhou who could achieve the fifth-rank with swords, and he was one of them.
Luo Yabai held a sword, his eyes calm, staring at the red-eyed spherical frog that jumped up.
The frog’s eyes were as red as lanterns, and it had wings, like a mountain floating in front of it.
“Bang!”
The red-eyed spherical frog sank into the water.
It disappeared in an instant.
Just when everyone thought it was safe, suddenly everyone felt the water surface began to sway, as if some huge monster was stirring up the wind and clouds.
“I spared your life, but you sought death yourself.” Luo Yabai looked serious and his tone was a little cold.
He held the sword in his right hand, and spiritual power began to surge, and sword energy burst out.
He struck out with a sword.
The entire river was split in half by him, and the water waves were flying and the river was surging. Soon, the river water turned blood red, and Luo Yabai slowly put away his sword.
The blood color on the water surface became thicker and thicker. Everyone guessed that the red-eyed spherical frog in the river water should be dead, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
“As expected of the sword immortal Luo Yabai, you split the river water in half with one sword.” The third son of the Demon Cave said, “I didn’t expect that your sword energy is so sharp after not seeing it for many years.”
Luo Yabai obviously didn’t want to say more. What is there to praise for killing a frog with a fifth-grade skill? Isn’t this a basic operation?
He was about to leave when suddenly, the river surged again.
The sword immortal Luo Yabai suddenly felt the extreme danger and quickly retreated. The water surface where he was standing just now appeared and left directly.
The red-eyed spherical frog jumped out again.
It was not dead, but one of its legs was cut off. Red blood spurted out of its leg, dyeing the river water red, and it made a croaking sound.
The voice was very angry, the eyes were red, and the stomach was bulging, as if he was about to vomit.
The little monk stood up and shouted: “Everyone be careful, this thing is highly poisonous, stay away from it, don’t let its saliva and urine touch it.”
Everyone retreated.
At this time, the red-eyed stamen frog spurted out endless saliva. Fortunately, the little monk reminded everyone to form a spiritual defense barrier to avoid death.
Next, the sword fairy Luo Yabai was completely angry. He pulled out two swords from the sword box.
He held the sword in both hands, and his Taoist robe fluttered. At this time, he was extremely angry, and boundless sword energy burst out of his body. Endless wind appeared on the two swords.
He jumped into the air and landed on the red-eyed stamen frog. He attacked frantically, and the sword energy burst out, like a raging ocean.
Thousands of sword energies burst out, crackling, and under the reflection of a red moon, he was like a crazy slaughtering demon.
Every time he attacked, blood splattered.
The two swords were like the strongest magic weapons in the world. They kept slashing out and circling around him, making him look extremely crazy.
“Slash.”
The sword immortal Luo Yabai held two swords, crossed them, and swung them quickly.
When he stopped, his black hair had been stained red with blood, and his Taoist robe was covered in blood, but the red-eyed frog was completely chopped into pieces.
Luo Yabai moved his hands, and the Taoist magic changed, and it instantly returned to its original state, as if it was not him who had just attacked wildly.
At this time, the water surface was dyed red, and the smell of blood was pervasive.
“Let’s leave here quickly. Let’s go to the nearest mountain and wait for a while. We will move forward after the blood disappears completely.”
Li Xu said.
Because we don’t know what else is in the river.
The smell of blood is too strong, it is easy to welcome stronger creatures. To be conservative, Li Xu’s suggestion is to temporarily take shelter in the nearest mountain.
Everyone is not a fool, and they soon figured out the problem caused by the blood.
They quickly formed seals and accelerated forward.
As soon as they stepped onto the towering mountain, the river below began to churn, and everyone saw huge black monsters in the river.
If they hadn’t run fast, the consequences would have been disastrous.
At this time, everyone walked to the top of the mountain, intending to rest for a while and wait for the giant in the river to leave before taking action.
They kept walking up.
There was a gorgeous palace on the top of the mountain.
There were patterns on the walls of the palace, all of which were ancient myths and legends.
A tall and strong god ran between the mountains and the sea, and ran between the rivers, looking at the sky, chasing a fiery red sun.
A bird with colorful clothes, tearful eyes, holding stones in its mouth and throwing them into the sea.
There was a man with a human head and a snake body, making seals with his hands, and a tripod floating in front of him, refining colorful stones.
There was a man wearing animal skins with anger in his eyes, a quiver behind him, and he was pulling the bow to aim at the nine suns in the sky.
In addition to Kuafu chasing the sun, Jingwei filling the sea, Nuwa repairing the sky, and Houyi shooting the sun, there are many more ancient myths carved on the walls of the palace.
As he was looking at it, suddenly, Daqi pulled Li Xu’s hand and said, “Master, come with me.”
She took Li Xu to the mural on the other wall and pointed, “Look.”
Li Xu looked at the wall, which had only a picture on it. There
were several crisscrossing ditches around the picture, with red magma flowing in the ditches.
In front of it were countless underworld ghosts.
In the center of the ghosts was an altar, on which there were eight strange-looking monsters, kneeling in front of an oil pan, on which there was a tied man.
Li Xu’s mouth twitched, this picture was exactly the same as the pattern on his coffin lid. .
“Is there any connection between the two?” Li Xu thought about it, but he couldn’t figure it out no matter how hard he tried. It should be a coincidence.
“What are you looking at?” Suddenly, Mu Yishi came over.
“Do you know what this painting means?” Li Xu asked.
Mu Yishi said, “Isn’t this the picture of the oil pan in hell? It’s a very simple picture. You can see this picture in many books related to the Eighteen Layers of Hell. It’s a form of torture.”
“I always feel that it’s not simple.” Li Xu didn’t want to ask this. He wanted to ask if this picture had other meanings.
“Wait…”
Mu Yishi seemed to remember something. He remembered that the coffin lid on Li Xu’s bronze coffin had this picture painted on it. He was particularly impressed. There were all kinds of demons and monsters.
“Maybe it’s a coincidence. After all, there are really too many ancient myths and legends. It’s normal to have overlaps.” Mu Yishi said lightly.
Li Xu didn’t think about it carefully, but just wrote it down.
They continued to observe. After observing for a while, they saw many patterns of gods and demons. Anyway, they were all very ancient legends.
But they saw a lot of them on the murals of this palace.
They wanted to continue to observe, but suddenly, the blood moon in the sky turned into a black moon, and the moon emitted a dark luster.
Everyone was shocked.
Li Xu stared at the exquisite picture album in his mind, which showed the time of seven o’clock in the evening.
He pulled Xiao Daxu into the palace and said, “Just eat some dry food, and we’ll rest.”
The other cultivators did the same, but the fifth-grade cultivators generally didn’t eat. Those below the fifth-grade cultivators had not yet achieved immortality and could not enter the state of fasting, so they basically needed to eat.
Xiao Daxu ate very quickly. After eating, she wiped her mouth and came to Li Xu, and found that he had just spread out a straw mat and bedding and was about to lie down.
Everyone looked at him strangely.
This is a complete freak.
Some people actually carry bedding and straw mats with them when they travel. What a talent.
The little monk looked at Li Xu, wanting to say something but stopping himself. It was hard to say.
Li Xu looked around and frowned, saying, “Why are you looking at me? Don’t you want to rest at night? How can you be energetic without resting?”
Li Xu was speechless and had already laid down while he was talking.
Everyone was speechless. Unlike Li Xu, they just sat cross-legged on the ground and entered the state of cultivation, and did not intend to sleep.
“Do you want to sleep or cultivate immortality?” Seeing Daxu staring at him blankly, Li Xu asked.
“Sleep.” Dahu said softly.
“Then come on.” Li Xu made room for her, “Sleep with me.”
Dahu scratched her head, embarrassed.
Everyone looked at her strangely. She was shy, so she had to sit cross-legged on Li Xu’s straw mat and soon entered the state of cultivation.
But while practicing, she opened her eyes unwillingly and got into Li Xu’s arms.
