In a teahouse in Jinghong City, Gu Xuan ordered a pot of spirit tea with maritime characteristics, sat by the window, and drank alone leisurely.

Looking through the window, I saw many monks flying over the city, as well as many warriors riding cranes.

After drinking several cups of spiritual tea, Gu Xuan secretly said: "Senior, do you have any clues?"

Wang Mang asked back: "You have also seen the jade slips, what do you think?"

"There are not many ferocious beasts recorded on the jade slips, but they are eye-opening." Gu Xuan turned the tea cup a few times, "If I were to choose among them, I would choose the Hunyuan Beast."

The Hunyuan beast is known as the most amazing beast in the world of cultivation. It is practiced with a mixture of spiritual energy and demonic energy, and specializes in physical training, making the beast's physical body never decay.

It's not that the Hunyuan beast doesn't cultivate its soul. Whenever a catastrophe breaks out, this beast's soul will fly away. When the catastrophe is eliminated, a new soul will be born and continue to occupy the body.

The Hunyuan beast only has one Dantian, and its cultivation method is even more unique. It cannot draw Qi to practice by itself. It has to suck the monk into its Dantian, and let the monk draw Qi into its Dantian to practice, and half of the external Qi attracted by the monk will be absorbed by it.

Wang Mang said flatly: "I believe the murderer is the Hunyuan beast. Among the ferocious beasts in the deep sea, this beast is the only one related to the catastrophe. It sensed the spirit bloodline that day and robbed Di Hong away."

The power of his mind penetrated into the Yuanyang Acacia Pearl, and Di Hong's soul imprint was still there. Gu Xuan thought: "I think the Dantian of Hunyuan Beast has its own space, otherwise how can Hongmei settle down and practice."

Wang Mang agreed: "Many monsters have space in their bodies, not to mention the Hunyuan beast. Judging from the black vortex that day, this beast is a huge beast."

Gu Xuan was a little worried: "If I can no longer draw Qi to practice, I'm afraid there will be no good end. Even if Hongmei's spiritual root is excellent, it has been a hundred years since the catastrophe occurred, and there is no guarantee that there will be no other variables. If the soul of the Hunyuan beast suddenly

If she disappears, Hongmei may be implicated."

"If there is sufficient spiritual energy, Di Hong's spiritual roots can advance to the Dharma Realm. There is no need to worry about this." Wang Mang thought for a moment, "According to Misty Insect's prediction, you can meet Di Hong in the Nanyang Realm. If you only meet Di Hong,

, nothing better. If you encounter the Hunyuan Beast, you will inevitably kill it and rescue Di Hong."

Gu Xuan frowned: "The strength of that Hunyuan beast is equivalent to the mana realm, so it must increase its combat power as much as possible."

Wang Mang said: "The soul of the Hunyuan beast is extremely weak, so we can just kill it when the time comes. The top priority is to draw in the energy to practice and improve the cultivation level."

"What senior said is true." Gu Xuan changed the topic, "Senior, do you have any suggestions for my subsequent cultivation?"

Wang Mang had already thought about it and blurted out: "With your current cultivation level, splitting the life and soul is not a trivial matter. I have an old friend in Nanyang Realm. His Taoist name is Xiaoyao Sanren. He is in the early stage of the magic power realm. The cave is on the reef island. You can go to the island."

I took refuge with him and asked him to protect the Dharma on his behalf, while he also practiced on the island."

Gu Xuan took a sip of spiritual tea and said: "Senior, I have been thinking about Zhou Xiang, so we will set off now."

…

The islands are much larger than Osmanthus Island. There are reefs all around the island and there are two peaks on the island.

The higher peak is called Big Rock Peak, with lush trees and rugged boulders. The other is Small Rock Peak, which is steep and difficult for ordinary people to climb.

The top of Dayan Peak is shrouded in thick black mist, like a dark cloud covering the top. This is the cave of Xiaoyao Sanren.

The jade bone boat hovered above the black mist. Wang Mang chuckled: "This formation is quite interesting. It uses spiritual power to set up the formation, uses the earth's yin energy as the operating energy, but uses the heavenly demonic energy as the protective energy."

Gu Xuan stood on the jade bone boat, having returned to his original appearance, and immediately offered a knocking talisman.

As the fingers moved, the tapping talisman emitted a red beam of light that quickly penetrated into the black mist.

The black mist rolled and soon revealed a passage, from which a parrot with colorful feathers flew out.

"Who are you?"

The five-colored parrot was small in shape, with flashing eyes. It glanced at Gu Xuan and actually spoke human words.

Wang Mang quickly introduced: "This is Xiaoyao Sanren's spiritual pet, named Xiaoying. Don't neglect it."

Gu Xuan hurriedly handed over his hand: "My dear Gu Xuan, I came to visit Master Xiaoyao and met fellow Taoist Xiaoying."

"Do you know Xiaoying, fellow Taoist?"

The colorful parrots circled above the spirit boat, their eyes looking quite surprised.

Gu Xuan smiled: "My mentor is an old friend of Zhenren Xiaoyao, and I know a lot about Taoist fellow Xiaoying."

"I see, the master is in the cave, inviting fellow Taoists from the past."

The voice of the colorful parrot was clear and sweet, and as soon as Fang finished speaking, he flew into the black mist passage.

Gu Xuan quickly drove the spirit boat and followed it into the passage.

As soon as I glanced at it, there was a huge rock on the top of the peak, shaped like a potato, half of the rock was embedded in the ground, and the front of the huge rock was covered with a yellow mask.

In front of the boulder is a flat grassland. Under the thick trees on the side of the grassland, there is a set of stone tables and chairs.

Sitting on the stone chair is a man in brocade robes with three short strands of beard. This man is Xiaoyao Sanren.

"In ancient times, a Taoist friend came to visit alone, and his teacher was an old friend of the master."

The colorful parrot reported and flew to the bird's nest in the tree.

Xiaoyao Sanren was reading a paper book. He folded the pages he read, closed them and put them on the table. He turned around and said with a smile: "My ancient Taoist friend knows Xiaoying, so I think his identity is true, but I have many old friends, so I don't know what I am doing."

Who is it?"

There was a stone path on the grass. Gu Xuan put away the spirit boat and walked on the stone path: "My mentor's name is Wang Mang. He suffered an accident many years ago, so he was unable to come."

"It turns out to be fellow Daoist Wang."

Xiaoyaosanren looked suddenly stunned, made a finger gesture, and submerged a formation plate on the table. The black mist rolled slightly, and the passage suddenly disappeared.

"Fellow Taoist, please take a seat."

There was a pot of spiritual wine on the table. When Gu Xuan took his seat, Xiaoyao Sanren took out an exquisite purple wood wine bottle and poured him a bottle of spiritual wine.

After drinking together from a bottle, Xiaoyao Sanren asked: "Wang Daoyou is indeed my old friend, how did he encounter such an unexpected incident?"

Gu Xuan had already prepared a set of arguments with Wang Mang: "My mentor was seriously injured in a battle with the enemy back then. After Tudun escaped, he was not allowed to seize the bodies of mortals."

"If the situation were not critical, how could Fellow Daoist Wang seize the mortal body?" Xiaoyao Sanren sighed, "Back in the Dark Mist Forest, I and Fellow Daoist Wang never knew each other, and the past events are vivid in my mind."

Wang Mang recalled: "I found a group of soul-eating insects in the Dark Mist Forest. This guy wanted to rob them, but naturally I couldn't let him get his wish."

Gu Xuandao: "My mentor has always been strict with me, never willing to reveal his life story, but he often mentions Master Xiaoyao and is full of praise."

"Fellow Taoist Wang is so complimentary." Xiaoyaosanren changed the subject, "I think that Taoist friend Gu is going to travel in Nanyang."

Gu Xuan said sincerely: "I first came to the Nanyang territory. Under the guidance of my mentor, I came here to visit Master Xiaoyao and ask for a place in the cave."

"My ancient Taoist friends are willing to practice here, and I welcome them." Xiaoyao Sanren chuckled, "There are two casual cultivators on Xiaoyan Peak, both of whom are in the Gangli realm. If my ancient Taoist friends don't object, we can open a cave in Big Rock Peak.
