"Ah, is there such a thing? You actually have a spiritual root that was opened only after tomorrow?".
Mother Zou Shu opened her mouth wide.
"Yes, that's why I know nothing about cultivating immortals and hiding in the world. That's why I went everywhere to find people to help me check my spiritual roots, searched for advanced techniques, and finally entered Lingshan in a daze."
When Xiao Hua said this, even he felt a little incredible.
"Entering Lingshan in a daze? Then how did you know about Lingshan?"
Zou Shuniang was very curious.
Xiao Hua had no choice but to take advantage of the drunkenness and simply asked him to get the secret recipe from visiting Qian Gu Sect and meeting enemies.
Go to Mujianmen to meet Zhang Zili and get the "Water Spirit Technique", and then go to Autumn Leaf Valley to get the thunder technique.
Until he entered Lingshan Mountain in order to find the demon elixir containing the power of the Five Elements, he told Mother Zou Shu.
"Oh my god, Brother Xiao, your experience is so wonderful and amazing."
"Even if you don't say that you have a supernatural spiritual root that was opened only after tomorrow, just getting the secret recipe of Qian Gu Sect is a huge opportunity."
"You have to know that not every disciple of each sect can have the secret recipe, otherwise why would it be called a secret recipe?"
"I guess the monk you killed in Tianlong Tunbao happened to be an alchemist from Qian Gu Sect."
"And the "Five Colors Thunder Sacrifice Technique" you got in Qiuye Valley can actually restrain the five elements of magic? These, these are really unimaginable."
After hearing Xiao Hua's experience, Mother Zou Shu's jaw almost dropped in shock.
"It's hard to imagine? Oh, yes, my experience is really exciting and magical."
"In just a few years, I have gotten opportunities that other cultivators may not get in their lifetimes, but so what?"
"My final result is not that I will have to accompany the monsters in the spiritual mountain and die alone."
When Xiao Hua said this, his heart began to hurt again.
"Staying with monsters in the Spirit Mountain, dying alone? What do you mean?"
"We are trapped in Lingshan Mountain only temporarily. As long as we spend more time practicing, won't we be able to get out once the elixir is formed?"
Zou Shuniang was a little puzzled.
Looking at Mother Zou Shu's crimson face and blurred eyes, Xiao Hua shook his head gently.
"Forget it, let's not talk about the unhappy things. I'm a little dizzy. Let's go to the door to get some air."
After Xiao Hua finished speaking, he ignored Mother Zou, carried the wine glass from the big bed to the entrance of the cave, and sat down on the swing.
"Hey, why are you leaving? You haven't answered my question yet. Come on, tell me clearly."
"what do you want me to say?"
"As you said, everyone has his own destiny. No matter how helpless he is, he can only accept it silently and face it calmly. In this case, what's the point of saying it or not?"
Xiao Hua knew that Zou Shuniang would soon form a pill and leave the mountain, and he didn't want everyone to be sentimental.
"Of course it makes sense. Even if some things can't be changed, it's better to say it than to keep it in your heart."
"I'm leaving Lingshan tomorrow. I don't want to leave any regrets. Can't Brother Xiao be honest with me for once?"
"Honest? Oh, okay, since you really want to know, then I'll tell you."
Looking at the quiet night by the lake, Xiao Hua took a sip of spiritual wine indifferently and began to slowly talk about the pain in his heart.
"Because my spiritual root was opened only after I acquired it, so every time I advance to a level after the foundation stage, there will be a catastrophe."
"If I want to leave Lingshan through pill formation, I have to go through a catastrophe."
"If I don't form the elixir, I can only live for more than two hundred years in the foundation building period, so I can't form the elixir, and I won't be able to get out until the next time the seal weakens."
"What? Once you form the elixir, there will be a catastrophe?"
Zou Shuniang screamed.
"Heavenly tribulation is a catastrophe that can only occur when the Nascent Soul stage advances to the Divine Transformation stage. How can you have it now? The Golden Core stage is about to pass the heavenly tribulation. Then you, you...".
Zou Shuniang's voice gradually became lower, and tears filled her eyes again.
Doesn't she know what it means to survive the tribulation?
The success rate of those monks in the Nascent Soul Stage who have profound skills to advance to the Divine Transformation Stage is only 10 to 20 percent.
Xiao Hua is only in the late stage of foundation building. If he survives the tribulation, he will definitely die.
"So this is my fate, my spiritual life is over."
Xiao Hua looked into the distance and forced himself to be calm.
"No, no, impossible, there must be another way. You are so powerful and have so many magic weapons, there must be a way."
"Think about it again, think about it again, you will definitely be able to get out, you will definitely be able to...".
Zou Shuniang stumbled out of the bed, her feet weakened and she fell to the ground.
"Little sister!".
Xiao Hua quickly got up from the swing and went to help Zou Shuniang.
Unexpectedly, after Zou Shuniang got up, she turned around, threw herself into Xiao Hua's arms and burst into tears.
"No, Brother Xiao, you won't die, you won't die, ugh...".
Perhaps because she drank too much, Zou Shuniang lost control and kept crying while holding Xiao Hua.
Zou Shuniang had been suppressed for too long.
First, she became an orphan with nowhere to go but to return home, and then she was promised by her master to Wan Lei, whom she regarded as her biological brother.
She was unwilling to bear it but unable to resist, so she chose to escape.
But she didn't expect to meet Xiao Hua, a half-hearted cultivator like Xiao Hua who dared to help her kill the Blue Blood Blue Toad in the early stages of foundation building in Lingshan. She became curious about Xiao Hua.
After they met again at the hot spring, Xiao Hua was deceived by her into helping kill monsters and obtain elixirs. After he was poisoned, Xiao Hua worked day and night to exorcise the poison and heal her wounds. Xiao Hua gradually appeared in Zou Shuniang's heart.
But although she and Wan Lei were not married, they already had a name. She could only suppress her feelings for Xiao Hua.
But what Zou Shuniang never expected was that Xiao Hua, a second-rate person, turned out to have an acquired spiritual root that would lead to a catastrophe every time he advanced to a higher level.
The person I finally fell in love with could only die alone in this spiritual mountain.
Zou Shuniang really collapsed at this moment.
Xiao Hua is not like this.
Although he and Zou Shuniang only got along for a few months, they stayed and flew together day and night.
Not only did they make elixirs and collect medicines together throughout the entire Lingshan Mountain, but they also experienced countless life and death tests together. How could Xiao Hua not have Zou Shuniang in his heart, not to mention that he was a Sea King.
However, Neptune returns to Neptune, and flowers with owners must not be picked, so Xiao Hua does not dare to think too much or go beyond.
The result is a mistake of Yin and Yang, a mistake of Yang and a mistake of Yin. Asking what love is in the world, it makes life and death agree.
"Don't cry, little sister. It's okay. At worst, I will be a mortal in Lingshan. Really, it's okay. Don't cry."
"Actually, this is not bad. It is good to be able to live a carefree and worry-free life alone."
Xiao Hua comforted Zou Shuniang insincerely, but the tears silently fell down her face disobediently.
Mother Zou Shu cried like a tearful person, hugging Xiao Hua and not letting go, and kept beating Xiao Hua's chest.
"Why, why is this? Why is this happening, I don't want you to die, I don't want you to die, ugh...".
At this moment, the silence was louder than the sound. Xiao Hua and Zou Shuniang hugged each other tightly and cried silently.
I don't know how long it took, Zou Shuniang's mood gradually calmed down, and she raised her head and glanced at Xiao Hua.
"Brother Xiao, I won't make pills anymore. I won't go back. I'll stay with you."
Xiao Hua smiled and touched Mother Zou Shu's head.
"Don't be stupid. As you said, we all have our own destiny. Since we can't change it, it's better to forget each other than to stay together."
Zou Shuniang didn't say anything anymore. She knew all these truths. What could she change if she stayed?
Is it possible to prevent Xiao Hua from catastrophe?
Can Xiao Hua be allowed to live an extra hundred years to survive until the next opening of Lingshan?
What should come will eventually come, and what should be faced will eventually be faced.
After a long moment of silence, Zou Shuniang suddenly pushed Xiao Hua away.
"Brother Xiao, since we all have our own destiny, it's better to miss each other than to see each other. Let's go have a drink. We won't come back until we get drunk today."
Looking at Mother Zou Shu, whose face was already crying, Xiao Hua felt sad in his heart.
Yes, starting from tomorrow, they will be separated for life and death, and the flowers on the other side will bloom. Maybe when the ends of the earth are limited, there will only be endless love.
So Xiao Hua and Zou Shuniang returned to the big bed, sat cross-legged, and began to drink strong drinks.
