Chapter 218 Return to the Forgotten Hills
"Zi'an, among my disciples, your cultivation is the lowest. They don't know you. Perhaps you are the only one who can escape."
As these last words fell, the gray sphere closed again, and Xuan Kun also withdrew from the gray-clothed young man's sea of soul.
After reading this sealed memory, Xuan Kun couldn't help but feel confused and shocked, thinking to himself.
"Zi'an's master and all his fellow apprentices must have been unable to escape the Monster Hunting Wall. Knowing this secret, those of the righteous path will certainly not let them go."
"I didn't expect that the two races, the human and demon races, who are so hostile to each other on the surface, actually have a cooperative relationship and are incubating Divine Transformation cultivators together."
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Ah, this world is truly dangerous. The monster tide is actually intended to consume the strong men of both the human and monster races. Was the war twelve years ago also planned by their top leaders?"
"The Monster Hunting Great Wall was breached, and countless human Jindan cultivators and above were killed or injured. Could this also be a conspiracy?"
"If that's true, then it's really as the old man said. The Monster Hunting Great Wall is the grave of the human race, a breeding ground for high-level cultivators waiting for me, and a hatching base for the strong."
While Xuan Kun was pondering, the young man beside him had already woken up and couldn't help asking, "Senior, have you opened it?"
Xuan Kun's face remained expressionless upon hearing this, and he was obviously still immersed in his previous thoughts.
Then he asked, "Why, do you want to know?"
When the gray-clothed young man Zi'an heard this, he was stunned. He thought for a moment and then said.
"No, Master said that only a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul can break my memory. If I know it, and my memory is not sealed, anyone with a higher cultivation level than me can check it at will. To be on the safe side, it is better not to know."
Xuan Kun laughed upon hearing this, "Haha, I'm only in the early Nascent Soul stage, so I can't break your memory. In fact, I don't know either, because I don't have the cultivation base of the middle Nascent Soul stage. Go now! Take your master's mission with you."
As he spoke, a storage bag flew out from Xuan Kun's waist and hung in front of Zi'an.
Xuan Kun said calmly, "These are some healing pills, a magic weapon, and a mid-level flying magic weapon. They're not expensive. Take them and go!"
Zi'an was shocked when he heard that. He stared at Xuan Kun with a mist in his eyes, and tears were already flowing.
She sobbed, "Senior, this... this..."
Xuan Kun's words and actions deeply moved Zi'an, who was only in his teens. After all, he had just experienced the death of his senior master and was also subjected to extortion and robbery. His young mind obviously could not bear it anymore.
After receiving Xuan Kun's understanding and help, Zi'an burst into tears and was speechless.
Dragging his injured body, he hurriedly bowed deeply to Xuan Kun, and tears dripped onto the tree trunk as he lowered his head.
"Thank you, senior. I am happy and will always remember this. Please leave your name. I will tell you in the future..."
As he spoke, he looked up again, but Xuan Kun was no longer there. He paused for words and looked around. There was only the storage bag hanging in the air.
After taking the storage bag, Zi'an's eyes fixed and he uttered the last few words firmly.
"One day...I will definitely repay you."
Xuan Kun's figure had already appeared in the sky. Looking at the young man in gray below, he sighed again.
"I've already been through so much in the early stages of foundation building, and now I have to travel across multiple countries alone to reach the Daoxuan Gate in the Western Territory. I have my own things to do, and this is all I can do."
As he said this, he looked towards the east, in the direction of the Monster Hunting Wall, and couldn't help laughing.
"In such a dangerous place, I have been hiding my Jindan cultivation. I didn't expect that I could escape several disasters. However, I didn't expect that I would be captured by Bai Zhu and almost be sacrificed. I guess the purpose of the sacrifice is to collect the innate spiritual power and become a powerful demon king of the demon race."
"Before leaving, the snake-man Meiyu asked, and Hongluan replied that the tenth-rank great demon Baizhu must have gathered his spiritual power and broken through to the demon king realm!"
"Maybe the next time we meet, Bai Zhu will have become the Demon King. No, I shouldn't see her again. I don't want to be captured by her again. Maybe next time, I won't be so lucky."
Xuan Kun frowned, the scene of being captured by him replayed in his mind again. He couldn't help but shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
The figure disappeared in the air and appeared in the distance, having turned into a three-colored light and headed west.
……
Five days later, at the border between Ziqi Xianzong and Xuantian Kingdom.
At this time, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the towering and majestic Wangqiu Mountains were located at the border.
The peak was covered with snow, and even the scorching sun in the sky could not melt it. In the distance, a three-colored light came quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a black figure appeared on the top of the peak.
"I'm back to the Forgotten Hills Mountains. I'm back to Xuantian Country."
This person was Xuan Kun, standing on the top of the mountain. The wind from the sky made his black clothes rustle.
Looking at the white snow beneath his feet, Xuan Kun laughed and said to himself, "This is where I left and this is where I came back. It really is fate!"
He retraced his steps and sighed, "I remember when I left here, it took me a month to reach Ziqi City. Now, I'm back in just five days! The speed of a Nascent Soul cultivator is truly amazing! If I could achieve the Divine Transformation Realm, I could truly see the world!"
As he spoke, he took a look at the small town at the foot of the mountain in the distance. There had not been much changes, except for a lot of new houses. It was obvious that after more than ten years, the town had become a little bigger.
Turning his gaze towards the Wangqiu Mountains, Xuan Kun hadn't forgotten his destination. He muttered to himself, "I haven't been there for over twenty years. The dark blue flame in the underground river should still be undiscovered. Now that I've recovered my Nascent Soul, it's time to go and see if I can take it for myself."
When Xuan Kun left the Monster Hunting Great Wall, he did not follow Yuan Qinghui's suggestion and go to the teleportation array of the Wanjian Divine Sect, but instead used the teleportation array of the Ziqi Immortal Sect.
It's not because he is afraid of being recognized by the people from the Sword Dao Sect who he might meet. After all, Xuan Kun can disguise his cultivation level. As long as he doesn't meet a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, Xuan Kun, who has the spiritual power of the middle Nascent Soul stage, generally cannot be discovered.
It was to see if he, who had already reached the Nascent Soul stage, could take in the flames in the dark river. If he could, it would definitely be a great means of regaining the Tianhuai Kingdom's fighting power.
After confirming the direction, Xuan Kun once again transformed into three-colored light and headed towards the depths of the Wangqiu Mountains.
With Xuan Kun's speed, it didn't take long before he arrived at a valley where two mountains met. There was a dense forest below, and nothing could be seen. Only a sea of green could be seen.
Xuan Kun stood in mid-air, gazing at the dense forest below him, and mused, "If I remember correctly, this is the place. Hidden in the valley below, there's a pitch-black cave. Inside that cave is the secret place of Master Lian Ding."
