Chapter 1405: Chapter 45 Decision_4

Not until Li Yuehua arrived did the two’s expressions suddenly become a bit tense.

Li Yuehua saw straight through the change in their attitude, slightly shaking her head:

“Rest assured, from now on, I probably won’t be abducting Yuanci Palace disciples anymore… But why are even the ordinary disciples not seen here?”

Weichi Shu and Weichi Lian exchanged glances, their eyes full of shock and doubt.

Weichi Shu finally gritted her teeth and said:

“Returning to old mother… Disciple, disciple had moved them out of the Yuanci Sea long ago.”

...

Li Yuehua nodded slightly, yet did not ask further.

Her gaze fell upon the ruins of the original site of Yuanci Palace.

She sighed.

Then with a wave of her hand,

Numerous array patterns emerged around the Stone Forest, quickly surging and weaving into a formation…

A short while later.

Li Yuehua landed in front of Daoist Yuanci, Xiang Sirui, and Rui Chunqiu, who were in conversation.

The latter two immediately retreated with good sense.

Daoist Yuanci hastened to greet her with a respectful bow:

“Disciple pays respects to Teacher Wife.”

Li Yuehua nodded, then spoke to Daoist Yuanci:

“This place is not convenient, come with me to another location.”

Daoist Yuanci was stunned.

Though hesitating in his heart,

He dared not ask further and could only quickly comply.

Li Yuehua did not say more, her sleeve swept up, enveloping Daoist Yuanci.

When Daoist Yuanci opened his eyes again, he found himself in a deep and secluded cave.

At the end of his sight, there was a huge black cavity.

An old crone’s phantom was sitting cross-legged in the middle, surrounded by many Primordial Spirits each in seated meditation.

A thick corrosive aura pervaded the surroundings.

Daoist Yuanci couldn’t help but feel both shock and doubt:

“Where is this?”

“This is the Extreme Southern Wind Cave.”

Li Yuehua stepped out from Qin Lingxiao’s body and returned to that of the old crone.

She opened her eyes and calmly answered Daoist Yuanci’s question:

“It is also the extreme southern end of heaven and earth.”

Qin Lingxiao did not regain control of his physical body; instead, his Soul and body separated once again.

Seeing this, Daoist Yuanci couldn’t help but turn his head, only to be startled to discover that his own body was also sitting cross-legged behind him.

He was suddenly filled with trepidation.

“What kind of ghost place is this? Why is it so eerie?”

The old crone glanced at him and said again:

“This is the Extreme Southern Wind Cave; it could be considered a ghostly place, though there’s nothing particularly bizarre about it.”

Daoist Yuanci was shocked, but quickly collected himself, and his restless thoughts instantly vanished.

Seeing Daoist Yuanci react so swiftly, a trace of appreciation flashed in the old crone’s eyes.

She then looked at the two and said softly:

“I am grateful to you for returning my husband’s corpse…”

Daoist Yuanci and Qin Lingxiao quickly shook their heads:

“The teacher has bestowed upon us the teaching of the True Method, returning him here is our duty.”

The old crone smiled:

“Is that so? Then to say, you both traversed vast oceans, coming all the way to the Zhongsheng Continent, you have no other purpose then?”

The two felt a chill in their hearts.

Qin Lingxiao instinctively looked towards Daoist Yuanci.

Daoist Yuanci pondered for a moment before speaking frankly:

“Teacher Wife sees through the smallest details. Disciple should not have concealed anything, but it’s been said that Teacher Wife might have had some misunderstandings with Fenglin Continent. Disciple found it hard to gauge the implications, and thus dared not speak more.”

The old crone’s face showed no expression, she simply said casually:

“Speak.”

Daoist Yuanci then detailed the disaster of the Yuanci in the Eightfold Sea.

“The Truth Membrane Eye, it is still Yuanci… It seems it’s as I have deduced.”

There was no surprise in the old crone’s eyes.

She mused:

“The Truth Membrane Eye of Yuanci is actually an autophagy caused by the lack of external resources in the Little Cang World; in other words, this Little Cang World is sick.”

“It’s not that difficult to resolve. You have cultivated the Yuanci True Method that my husband and I improved. If you cultivate it deeply enough, you’ll be able to use the Truth Membrane Eye for yourself. The so-called disaster of Yuanci would naturally be resolved.”

“That simple?”

Qin Lingxiao was incredibly surprised.

Daoist Yuanci, however, frowned slightly:

“May I ask Teacher Wife, what does ‘cultivate deeply enough’ entail?”

The other party spoke lightly, but he remembered that the senior Yuchen died at the hand of the Truth Membrane Eye; it couldn’t possibly be that easy.

The old crone spoke calmly:

“Class VI God Realm… that is, what you call Void Refining.”

Qin Lingxiao and Daoist Yuanci were both stunned.

Void Refining?

Not to mention the slim chance of them achieving Void Refining, even if they truly reached it, by that time, the entire Little Cang World would likely have already become the Yuanci Realm.

“Of course, Class VI is indeed a bit difficult, but there are other methods.”

The old crone sensed their thoughts and offered another method.

She lightly pointed her finger.

Two fruits, one red and the other black, one plump and the other shriveled, appeared in front of the two.

“You two can each take one Taoist Mystic Holy Fruit. After taking them, you will naturally know how to resolve this disaster of Yuanci.”

She looked at Qin Lingxiao and Daoist Yuanci.

Her gaze was enigmatic:

“Which of you will choose first?”

Daoist Yuanci couldn’t help but tense up.

His eyes shifted back and forth between the old crone and the two fruits in front of him.

Qin Lingxiao’s expression changed as well.

Daoist Yuanci might be unaware of the purpose of these Taoist Mystic Holy Fruits, but she had heard about them from the old crone before.

She knew very well that whichever fruit one chose, there would be a fatal problem.

One could enhance comprehension, but at the cost of significantly decreased lifespan.

The other allowed one to travel beyond the world, but one would never be able to return.

“Who will choose first?”

The old crone asked again.

Qin Lingxiao instinctively stepped forward.

Then she suddenly came to her senses.

But she immediately saw the old crone looking at her with a strange smile:

“Little girl, you’d better think carefully, of these two fruits, which one will you choose?”

Qin Lingxiao stared blankly at the two fruits,

Then clenched her teeth and resolutely extended her hand.
