Chapter 179: The deal is done, the Xiao family ancestor is possessed by a demon
If in the past, we met on a narrow road, why would there be so many rules of right and wrong? The first come first served, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.
Treasures of heaven and earth absorb the essence of heaven and earth, are nurtured by heaven and earth, and are planted in the wilderness. They never belong to any one person.
If the Xiao family plants the Fuhua sacred tree in their own yard, they can say it is their own sacred tree, and attacking it will be justified and upright.
Can be planted here.
The Xiao family at most took it for themselves, not to mention that the spiritual energy has been exhausted for more than three hundred years. What they had occupied should have been returned to the world long ago.
In fact, it’s not that the Xiao family doesn’t want to plant the “Fuhua Divine Tree” in the clan, but that they can’t do it.
This tree can only bear fruit in dangerous places. Even the ancestors cannot understand the mystery behind it.
This is exactly the mystery of the world. There was once an ancestor of the Xiao family who used his great magical powers to pick a star from the sky and copied the trees, soil, mountains, and water in the endless forest completely. Even the wild beasts suffering from strange diseases were not left out. However, even though he did so, it still didn't work.
Let’s talk about what happened after the two sides negotiated.
Li Changxiao agreed to the deal. Firstly, he was not an unreasonable person. Secondly, the Fuhua Divine Fruit was of little use to him. If he could exchange it for something more beneficial to him, that would naturally be great.
The two sides found a place to sit down, and naturally there was some bargaining.
Trading is a science, and if you are not careful, you will suffer a loss. So Li Changxiao plans to proceed step by step and not get straight to the point. He first wants to know whether these two people have what he wants.
He first asked the two why they only remembered the Fuhua Divine Fruit now when more than three hundred years had passed since the spiritual energy was exhausted.
Xiao Yuan and Shang Xin hesitated, looking at each other, not knowing whether to say it or not.
Li Changxiao emphasized that he hoped the two would show some sincerity. If the reasons were not clear, the transaction would be difficult to proceed.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan sighed and finally told the other party that in fact the Xiao family had always wanted to take back the "Fuhua Divine Fruit".
But on the eve of the exhaustion of spiritual energy, the strange diseases and beasts in this Endless Forest were still extremely powerful.
If you enter this place rashly, take back the Fuhua Divine Fruit.
The cost is too high and it is unnecessary.
So it was delayed again and again, and the tribesmen gradually forgot about this fruit.
until……
The ancestor of the Xiao family became possessed without any warning.
Only then did he remember the Fuhua divine fruit, which was useful for cultivators possessed by demons and could drive away the demons in their hearts.
That's why he ventured into the Endless Forest, just to seek the Fuhua Divine Fruit.
Even if you obtain divine fruit.
There is still some effect left, but it is still unknown whether it can cure the ancestor of the Xiao family.
Li Changxiao nodded. So that's how it was. However, he felt a little surprised and curious in his heart. Could it be that the ancestor of the Xiao family had been possessed by a demon?
The Xiao family of Hongyu is a well-known cultivation clan throughout the world, and the ancestor is naturally also a top-notch strongman who is famous throughout the world.
Based on the outside world's and one's own impression of the Xiao family's ancestor.
He was an old man with a sage-like demeanor.
A very upright immortal. Li Changxiao once had the good fortune to catch a glimpse of him from afar and could feel the "ethereal and otherworldly" aura from him.
Not likely to be someone who might be possessed by a demon.
Li Changxiao was not in a position to ask about the reasons in detail. If he could successfully obtain the essence and conditions permitted, he could go and take a look at it again.
Xiao Yuan asked, "Fellow Daoist, why did you come to this dangerous place?"
Li Chang smiled but said nothing. A very important point in the transaction negotiation was to master the rhythm. After the previous test, he already knew the other party's details and took the initiative. He asked again: "If the ancestor is in trouble, we cultivators will naturally do our duty. It's just that the journey has been difficult, and this Fuhua Divine Fruit was once a treasure."
"I feel reluctant to give it up for nothing. Daoist friend, I want to ask, how many Fuhua Divine Fruits do you need?"
Shang Xin said, "It is great that you are so reasonable, fellow Daoist. I will speak frankly. The Fuhua Divine Fruit has drug resistance. Three pills are enough. Any more will be useless."
"So...Fellow Daoist, we must exchange for at least three Fuhua Divine Fruits."
Shang Xin was handsome and had an anxious look in his eyes. He said, "Fellow Daoist, please make an offer. My Shang family and Xiao family have many treasures that are no less valuable than the Fuhua Divine Fruit. As long as you are willing to exchange, this is not a problem."
Seeing this, Li Changxiao knew that the rhythm was in his hands, so he didn't keep it a secret.
He took out a Fuhua Divine Fruit and placed it on the ground. "I want to exchange this one for... the map of the Endless Forest, and all the clues about the Muyuan Pith."
The Xiao family and the Endless Forest are in the same area, so it is impossible for them not to pay attention to the news about Muyuan Sui. And it is impossible for Xiao Yuan to enter the Endless Forest without a map, so... Li Changxiao can be sure that these two people definitely have what he wants.
Li Changxiao's voice was calm. He continued to take out a Fuhua Divine Fruit and gently placed it on the ground. "For this one... I will exchange it for one of your magic skills. The Great Fuhua Art is the foundation of your Xiao family. As an outsider, I naturally dare not meddle in it. How about I exchange it for the Small Fuhua Art? It shouldn't be a loss for you guys."
Then, he took out the third Fuhua Divine Fruit, thought for a while, and smiled carefreely, "Forget it, I'll just give this one to you."
Whatever.
If it's a loss, it's a loss.
Li Changxiao was too lazy to care about it.
Looking at the three fruits on the ground, Xiao Yuan's eyes lit up, and then she was a little surprised. She thought this swordsman was a little weird. In this world, he entered this Endless Forest just to find the essence of the god?
What's the point of looking for it?
Although it was puzzling, the deal was finally reached.
She did have the Endless Forest map and information about Kihara Marrow, and quite a bit of it.
As for the Xiaofuhua technique, she knew it, but she did not carry the book that recorded the technique with her. In order to show her sincerity, she asked Li Changxiao for pen and ink, and wrote down the technique verbatim, and also attached some personal opinions.
To ensure correctness, she spared no effort in wasting her spiritual energy and performed the Xiao Fuhua technique according to the written method.
There was a gentle breeze, rustling leaves, and magical powers. Xiao Yuan quickly put away the magic. If she continued to use it, it would consume a lot of spiritual energy.
This time the deal was concluded very quickly.
Li Changxiao obtained the map and information about Muyuan's marrow, while Xiao Yuan and others successfully obtained the Fuhua Divine Fruit with minimal losses.
They said goodbye to each other and then left.
Li Changxiao continued walking at the same pace, neither fast nor slow. It was really boring to walk in the woods, and he had already finished the wine.
Seek change, seek change.
Li Changxiao sighed in his heart.
When he obtains the ten divine essences and breaks through to the state of divine transformation, he will inevitably have to sleep for a long time.
I don’t know when that will happen.
What will the world become?
suddenly.
Li Changxiao's attention was attracted by a scene.
Maybe it's going to rain soon.
The ants on the ground lost their composure. Two leading ants bumped into each other, and the ant colony fell into chaos.
He observed quietly without disturbing the ant colony, but the subsequent changes in the ant colony were beyond his expectations.
His pupils gradually contracted and his brows furrowed.
(The chapter on seeking change is a major turning point in the spiritual practice world. It is a relatively long chapter. Precisely because of its importance, it is difficult to write. Sometimes I know what I should write, but I always feel like I have no idea where to start.
So, I would like to ask for your opinions online. Do you want the pace to be faster, slower, or remain the same? I personally think that since this is a longevity story, it should be slow-paced and focus on witnessing. But your opinions are also important, and I hope to get useful feedback^w^)
(Also, don’t scold me~~O(n_n)O~~, I have a sensitive heart, and negative reviews can easily affect my mentality (＞﹏＜))
