Chapter 1285
Inside Yellow Flower Ridge, on top of Minsi Peak, Jiang Fan scanned with his divine sense and knew that his disciple had returned empty-handed. After the disciple reported back, he said coldly, "Xiao Hua is just a boy who has just entered the second layer of qi refining. His flying speed is so slow. You … a dozen sixth layer qi refining disciples actually spent an afternoon and several hours and still couldn't catch him?"
"This disciple is stupid. This disciple and the others had estimated his flying speed and moved forward to search for him. Later on, when we saw that something was wrong, we spread out and searched the area within a hundred miles. However, we didn't find any trace of him."
"Are you sure you've searched all the places?" Jiang Fan asked coldly.
"Yes, young master. He went for less than two hours, at most a few hundred miles. Our speed is much faster than his. There's no reason we can't find him!" The disciple was very puzzled.
"Hmph, no reason? We just can't find him now." Jiang Fan snorted coldly. "He flies slowly and his direction is fixed. Why can't we find him?
Where could he have gone? "
"Young master, this guy is only in the second layer of qi refining. His cultivation is pitifully low. What's the use of looking for him?
If Xiao Xianzi finds out, how can you explain it to her? "
"Nonsense, I was afraid she would be unhappy, so I didn't take him down in front of her!"
Listening to Jiang Fan's tone, he really treated Xiao Xianrui very well and didn't want her to be unhappy. "But, how was Shang Huaming killed? Our Hundred Herbs Gate knows nothing. At that time, only Xiao Xianrui and Xiao Hua were at Yellow Flower Ridge. Since Xiao Xianrui has been killed, we can only ask Xiao Hua about it!
Xiao Xianzi didn't ask because she knew she didn't have the ability to take revenge. But we can't. Since we have occupied Yellow Flower Ridge, we must know why Shang Huaming was killed. We can't repeat the same mistake! "
"Xiao Hua said that he was sent to the depths of Yellow Flower Ridge to pick herbs. That does make some sense … But I've always wanted to ask in my heart … Aiyo, I understand now. Xiao Hua looks very simple and honest, but he's actually so shrewd … Have you searched the surroundings of Yellow Flower Ridge?" Jiang Fan suddenly realized.
"No, I only searched in the direction of Huan Hua Sect. I also searched hundreds of miles away, but I didn't search around Yellow Flower Ridge!" The disciple suddenly thought of something. "Young Sect Master, you mean …"
"Xiao Hua flew very slowly, he must have been afraid that we would catch up to him, so he turned back halfway and hid near Yellow Flower Ridge!" Jiang Fan sneered, "Let's go, he must still be somewhere around here!"
"Yes, disciple will leave now!" The disciple cupped his hands and left.
At this time, Xiao Hua had already put away the god statue and was about to fly up. Suddenly, he thought, "Jiang Fan threw away the god statue in Shang Hua Ming's Inheritance Palace. Of course, he wasn't afraid of being seen by Senior Sister. Since this is the case, then Senior Sister must be unable to enter the Inheritance Palace. Then … wouldn't Senior Sister have lost her value?
Senior Sister's life is in danger? "
For a moment, Xiao Hua stood in the air, not knowing what to do!
After a while, he let out a long sigh, "What a pity, what a pity. I have the heart, but I'm powerless. Even if Senior Martial Sister follows me out of Yellow Flower Ridge, where else can we go?
It would be better to let Senior Sister stay in Hundred Herbs Gate. She might even be able to keep her life!
Forget it, let's go, let's go! "
As he spoke, he urged his magic power and flew rapidly in the direction of Huan Hua Sect. His speed was several times faster than it was at noon!
Just as Xiao Hua flew away for the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the disciples of Hundred Herbs Gate arrived and searched desperately, but how could they find traces of Xiao Hua?
Even after that, Jiang Fan sent a lot of people to search a larger area, but … the direction they were looking for wasn't the direction of Huan Hua Sect. Not to mention how fast they were flying, even if they followed Xiao Hua's previous worst-case scenario, even if their Young Sect Master Jiang Fan and that Foundation Establishment stage Elder went out to search together, he was afraid that they wouldn't be able to find anything!
Although Xiao Hua urged his magic power with all his might and raised his flying speed to the fastest, he flew forward for nearly four hours. At this time, the sky was already slightly bright. Along the way, he flew over a continuous range of mountains. Occasionally, he would see a sparse village on the plains or beside a river. Xiao Hua only looked at them, not daring to stop. At this time, the flying talisman on his body was gradually losing its effect. Xiao Hua had no choice but to stop. After looking around, his figure landed and flashed to the side of a mountain stream!
Panting slightly, Xiao Hua's nervous mood gradually calmed down. He calculated that he had just flown for four hours. Although he wasn't sure exactly how far he had flown, his speed should be several times faster than the second layer of the Aura Refining stage. Whether it was time or distance, he definitely far exceeded Hundred Herbs Gate's estimation. Even the disciples who were chasing him earlier might not have chased him this far. Therefore, Xiao Hua sat cross-legged, very peacefully regulating his breathing and recovering his magic power!
Time flowed like water. When Xiao Hua opened his eyes again, the sun was already high in the sky. The mountain stream was empty, and birds were singing. This kind of unknown sound was everywhere, giving off a feeling of paradise outside the world.
Xiao Hua closed his eyes again, relaxing his mind. It was as if he had grown another pair of eyes, reflecting everything around him into his heart. The quiet and peaceful atmosphere also made his slightly tired heart feel extremely tranquil!
"Alas ~" After a long time, Xiao Hua let out a long sigh. "What's the point of being a person?
What's the point of only cultivating?
Take School Head Xiao for example. He's lazy, doesn't like trouble, and doesn't want to offend anyone. Unexpectedly, he was also targeted by Hundred Herbs Gate, and in a moment of carelessness, his sect was exterminated!
What's more, Little White was already a demonic beast undergoing tribulation. With great difficulty, it cultivated from a snake to the Foundation Building stage. How difficult was that?
Unfortunately, when it succeeded, it became a small fish that got caught in the crossfire. I didn't hear Senior Martial Sister mention Little White's corpse. Presumably, long before she returned to Yellow Flower Ridge, Hundred Herbs Gate had already taken her back to Medicine Farmer Peak! "
"Since cultivation is so cruel, it's really not as good as a mortal building a house by this stream. When he's thirsty, he'll drink morning dew. When he's hungry, he'll catch fish in the stream. He'll live a carefree life!"
Thinking up to this point, Xiao Hua let out a burst of hoarse laughter. He said self-deprecatingly, "Even if it's this carefree life, how long can it last?
Not to mention that life is short, several decades will pass in the blink of an eye. Even if I hide from the world here, how can it be a true paradise?
Even a great formation like Yellow Flower Ridge was breached, and this mountain wilderness is even more defenseless. If any cultivator finds you displeasing to the eye, a yellow talisman will be enough to take your life. How can you still talk about living a carefree life? "
"Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest. Only by cultivating extraordinary magical abilities can one have the freedom to not be controlled by others. Only then can one soar freely in this world!"
Thinking up to this point, Xiao Hua couldn't help but feel his blood boil. His entire mind opened up, and an incomparable ambition was born. It was as if he wanted to trample this world under his feet!
"It's good to think clearly, but I can't think too far. Biting off more than I can chew will only make me fall even more miserably!"
After a moment, Xiao Hua gradually calmed down. The corners of his mouth revealed a slight smile. "I'll slowly raise my cultivation. Only when I have the strength will I have the qualifications to think about more things!"
Immediately, Xiao Hua waved his hand and took out the snake-shaped ring from the space. At this time, the ring was different from before. At the very beginning, the ring in Xiao Hua's space only had a snake body. The snake body didn't have a snake head at the front, nor did it have a snake tail at the back. There were only a few vague claws!
At this time, the snake body's back had already been mended. Only two claws could be seen growing out of the abdomen. Each of the claws had five toes, and they clawed down from the air. The mended snake tail was also different from an ordinary snake tail. The tail was extremely similar to a butterfly's wings!
The shape of the entire ring was exactly the same as when Xiao Hua saw Little White transform into a python dragon to undergo tribulation!
Even if Xiao Hua had never seen a dragon before, he already understood that this was a dragon-shaped ring. It was a ring that lacked a dragon head!
Of course, this wasn't the most important thing. What made Xiao Hua frown and think hard the most was that when he was unconscious on the peak of Cherishing Flower Peak a few days ago, this dragon-shaped ring passed some incomplete cultivation method into his mind. And this incomplete cultivation method was the so-called Dragon Transformation Art!
At the same time, he also knew that this dragon-shaped ring was called Dragon Jade!
"It's very strange. This Dragon Transformation Art … looks extremely simple, but … it's completely different from the Death Flower Dark Mantra that I've comprehended before!
It's as if … it's simply not used for cultivation!
Or perhaps … it's used to refine the body? "
Xiao Hua's only knowledge of cultivation came from Zhang Qingxiao's nagging: "But, even if it's for refining the body, this cultivation method … I'm also unable to make sense of it. I don't know how to start!"
"Could it be … because the cultivation method is incomplete?
Maybe when I find this Dragon Jade's dragon head and complete this Dragon Transformation Art, I'll be able to cultivate it? "
"But … that's also not right. If this Dragon Transformation Art was given to me by Little White, then why can it cultivate into a dragon?
This Dragon Jade is only the tail, and it's even less than half of mine now! "
Xiao Hua scratched his head a bit. He held the Dragon Jade with both hands, his fingers stroking the fine dragon scales on the Dragon Jade's body as he thought carefully.
Suddenly, his two hands touched the Dragon Jade's meridians. They jumped slightly, as if it was a kind of pleasant surprise, a kind of pleasure!
"This … what's going on here?"
Xiao Hua's heart stirred, and he tried again. Sure enough, the meridians moved slightly again, as if they were not happy at all. When Xiao Hua tried to send his magic power into the Dragon Jade again, the meridians did not have any reaction!
Suddenly, Xiao Hua remembered the change in his meridians when Little White was going through the tribulation. "That lightning tribulation was clearly Little White's, so why are my meridians so scared?
That lightning tribulation was clearly aimed at Little White, so why did it hit me instead?
Could it be that my meridians … are somewhat special? "
"That's right, sect leader … didn't he say before?
He felt that my meridians are different from normal meridians, as if they have vitality and vitality. It can even be said that … they're alive!
Hehe, living meridians … really inconceivable. Could it be that my cultivation can't be raised normally because of these meridians?
Could it be that I have to cultivate my meridians first before my cultivation can be raised normally? "Xiao Hua followed his own thoughts, and Xiao Yuehong's words, and continued to think without restraint.
Suddenly, an inconceivable idea, one that he had never thought of before, appeared in Xiao Hua's mind!
