Chapter 330 The Unlucky Thief Reunites at Zhushan

Zhao Xingfan walked on the main street of Jinghua City, which is close to Shuiyue Gate. It is a very prosperous place in the world of cultivation. Not only are there many supernatural power cultivators, but even Jindan masters are often encountered. As long as you can afford the price, you have a great chance to buy all kinds of materials and spiritual herbs.

Since leaving Zhushan 20 years ago, Zhao Xingfan began to travel around the world. Although he only traveled to less than half of the places, by chance, he finally gathered the resources to advance to Jindan. He rented a cave in Jinghua City and successfully advanced to Jindan 20 years ago, becoming a master in the whole world.

Recalling the past in Zhushan, Zhao Xingfan was most impressed by that rhetorical question. At this time, looking at the bustling Jinghua City, he thought to himself: "Teacher asked me if I understood, but I still don't fully understand it until today?"

Zhao Xingfan seemed to have understood many truths from that rhetorical question over the years, and he seemed to feel that it was not what the teacher wanted him to understand. Unfortunately, after that time, when he asked the teacher again, the teacher kept silent.

As he was walking and thinking, a handsome man in a tattered Taoist robe came from behind Zhao Xingfan. When he was about to catch up with Zhao Xingfan, he slipped and bumped into Zhao Xingfan.

Zhao Xingfan was stunned and stretched out his hand. The black true energy wrapped around him and pinched the man's hand that was reaching for his storage bag. Are all the thieves in Jinghua City so stupid? How dare he steal the storage bag of a Jindan Grandmaster? Doesn't he know what spiritual perception is? Or he used such an ancient method that even a cultivator in the Out-of-Body Realm couldn't steal it!

The man looked up and saw that it was Zhao Xingfan. He was immediately stunned and muttered, "I, I wanted to steal him. When I pretended to slip just now, I got the direction wrong." The other hand pointed at a wealthy businessman who was only practicing body forging on the right side of Zhao Xingfan. He didn't dare to resist the Jindan Grandmaster.

Zhao Xingfan originally wanted to teach the thief a lesson and let him know that it is not so easy to steal from the Jindan Grandmaster, but after hearing the man's explanation, Zhao Xingfan was happy. According to normal judgment, he was telling the truth, but he was too unlucky. He actually got the wrong direction when pretending to slip.

"Isn't this your first time to steal?" Zhao Xingfan asked with a smile.

The man was dejected: "No, I have stolen many times, but every time I was extremely unlucky. Once I stole a guy's storage bag, but after opening it, countless poisonous insects flew out, which made me lie down for a whole month and almost died."

"My son? It sounds like you had a good life before." Zhao Xingfan was a little interested in the story of this unlucky thief. At least his unlucky past made him feel good.

"That's right, thinking back to the past, ah, forget it, a hero doesn't talk about his past achievements. Seeing that you are magnanimous, I will remind you a few words." The man seemed to be really good in the past. Even when facing the Jindan Grandmaster, he treated him as an equal.

Zhao Xingfan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh, what kind of good advice is this?"

The man said bitterly: "Don't trust women! This is what happened to me because of them! They swore to me that they would become my Taoist partner after I achieved the Dharma Image, but they took away my magic weapon when I was seriously injured! They even said shamelessly that they would not kill me because of our friendship for so many years!"

"And those bitches, one night of marriage is a hundred days of love, but one by one, they saw that I could not recover my original cultivation, so they took away my resources and spiritual herbs, leaving me with no hope of making a comeback. Humph, when they were affectionate back then, they all said that they were attracted by my personality, and definitely not by my cultivation level and various resources."

Zhao Xingfan was dumbfounded. What magic weapon, what Dharma Image, this guy seemed to be crazy, but from the deep hatred in his tone, it seemed that he was indeed deeply hurt by women.

"Also, men can't be trusted. My men took advantage of my loss of soul and poisoned me, causing me to lose all my cultivation. Ah!" The man howled to the sky.

Before Zhao Xingfan could speak, bursts of fragrant white petals fell from the air like a light rain, and the white petals were set off by a faint white glow, making the whole street look like a dream scene.

A graceful figure in a white gauze dress passed by the street on a soft couch in the rain of flowers. Her face was covered with gauze, so her face could not be seen clearly, but it made people feel a thrilling beauty. In front of her were eighteen golden-armored gods holding various utensils, and behind her were eighteen graceful girls in white clothes, also holding incense burners, etc.

But what surprised people the most was not her beauty, but her terrifying and oppressive aura.

Intoxicated in this dreamlike fantasy, people on the street didn't come back to their senses until the white gauze woman had gone away for a long time.

"Water Moon Saint Wen Nianxi." Someone muttered to himself.

Someone sighed: "I heard that she just achieved the Dharma Image."

"Yes, that kind of terrifying and oppressive aura is not fake."

Zhao Xingfan also sighed: "The Dharma Image Master is really glorious."

The man next to him said with envy and some disdain, "This young master was also so glorious in the past, but since I was chopped by that guy..."

…………

Anxi City, on the top of Zhushan, late at night.

A white figure woke up outside the bamboo hut, and then heard Shi Xuan's voice in the bamboo hut: "You and I are now even. Take care of yourself in the future."

Wen Nianxi knelt on the ground and bowed: "Nianxi can be where she is today, thanks to Master Shi's cultivation. I dare not trouble Master Shi to restore the Divine Religion. I just wait for Nianxi to achieve the Yuanshen, and it will naturally come to fruition."

"It's best if you can think so. Leave." Shi Xuan finally got the content of "The True Explanation of Water and Moon". The method they achieved the Yuanshen was to obtain the meaning of "Mirror Flower and Water Moon". Through the secret method, the true spirit was reflected in the Dharma, and finally the moon in the water was transformed into the moon in the sky, and the moon in the sky was transformed into the moon in the water, and the two were transformed to achieve the Yuanshen.

The bad thing is that such a Yuanshen is dull and indifferent, lacking the meaning of agility, just like the billion-year-old ice under the North Pole, and the reflected true spirit is quite fragile, so it will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.

After reading "The True Explanation of Water and Moon", Shi Xuan felt that an invisible purple door fell into his body. As long as he thought about it, he could return to the Yuyu World.

…………

After saying goodbye to the unlucky thief, Zhao Xingfan used the teleportation array to return to Ziluo Country. Now that he had condensed the golden elixir, he had to report to his teacher and thank him for his kindness.

When he arrived in Anxi City, it was already midnight. Zhao Xingfan didn't want to stay in the city, so he went out of the city gate and walked towards Zhushan.

Not long after walking, a strange team appeared in front of him. A group of monsters with tiger heads and human bodies carried a monk wearing a yellow Taoist robe and a little fluffy yellow hair on his face.

Zhao Xingfan's eyes condensed. This monk might be a monster who had condensed the golden elixir, which was fundamentally different from other monsters who cultivated demon pills.

"Little ones, stop for a moment." The big demon also noticed Zhao Xingfan, and ordered the little demons to stop, then got off the sedan chair and saluted Zhao Xingfan as a fellow Taoist: "I am Huang Shanjun, I am honored to meet you, Taoist friend. I wonder what your name is, are you also a disciple of Master Zhushan?"

Zhao Xingfan saw that Huang Shanjun was so polite, so he put aside some of his worries and replied with a smile: "I am Zhao Xingfan, a disciple of the teacher. Did you also listen to the teachings here?"

Then Huang Shanjun laughed heartily: "This king remembers you. I saw you when I was listening to the teachings in the bamboo forest. Later, this king, uh, this poor Taoist went to other places and had some adventures, and also made a career. Today, I brought the children back to the mountain to pay homage to the teacher." It was so happy that it used the common name.

"In this case, I have to congratulate fellow Taoist Huang." Zhao Xingfan was telling the truth. It takes a lot of time for normal demons to change to the Taoist way. It takes only eighty years to go from opening the spiritual wisdom to forming the golden elixir. It must be a great adventure.

Huang Shanjun was very happy to see Zhao Xingfan did not mind it being a demon. He pulled him to the top of the bamboo mountain and kept talking about how he ordered the demons to only hunt animals and not to hurt humans without reason, how the cultivators outside were still hostile to him, and how he was so powerful and fought eight enemies.

While the man and the tiger were talking, the demons were not idle either, quietly exchanging information.

"I heard that there is a Zhushan ancestor here who has opened a Taoist temple. The king listened to the lectures here in the past, and then he has achieved his current cultivation."

"Really? The king is so powerful, and he is just listening? Wouldn't it be more powerful to listen directly? Isn't the Zhushan ancestor very powerful?"

"That's right, the Zhushan ancestor has boundless magic power and great magical powers. This time the king brought us here to listen to the Zhushan ancestor's lecture, which means the king regards us as his confidants!"

"Yes, we will go through fire and water for the king, and we will never refuse to die! We will never refuse to patrol the mountain in the future."

As they were talking, they had already reached the top of the bamboo mountain. Zhao Xingfan suddenly smelled a familiar faint fragrance, and was stunned for a moment, then laughed at himself in his heart: "Why is Wen Nianxi here, Zhao Xingfan, Zhao Xingfan, you are too suspicious, who is Wen Nianxi, one of the ten great Dharma real people in the world, how could she set foot in this barren Zi Luo country? Don't associate it with this when you smell a little fragrance."

Huang Shanjun also sniffed: "What a fragrant smell. It's a woman, alive!"

Thinking that it was another woman who came to listen to the teachings, Zhao Xingfan and Huang Shanjun didn't care, and soon they arrived at the top of the mountain.

The bamboo forest was still the same as before, but there were less than 30 people still listening to the teachings here, most of whom were children who had recently embarked on the path of cultivation in the surrounding area, but Zhao Xingfan and Huang Shanjun still found a few familiar people (monsters).

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, Fellow Daoist Xia, Fellow Daoist Qi, it's been many years since we last met, but you're still as charming and elegant as ever." Zhao Xingfan saw that Zhang Liu, Xia Jing, and Qi Zicai all had profound cultivation. Among them, Zhang Liu had already advanced to the Golden Core stage, and the other two had also reached the realm of supernatural powers after years of cultivation.
