Chapter 368: The jellyfish where Master’s Wife lived?
"Your Majesty, how come I haven't heard of you accepting a disciple before?"
The city lord was waiting behind Master Olympus, and when he saw some silence, he took the initiative to talk.
"Do I have to tell the world when I accept a disciple?" Venerable Oshu didn't look back, and still stared at the entrance of the whirlpool-like secret realm. "He is the disciple I put in the human world to experience. He is always placed on the high sacred mountain. He is the disciple who teaches me." There are no good students.”
Qi Tai and Li Ming looked at each other and knew clearly in their hearts that this disciple's arithmetic talent had been confirmed. Judging from his high cultivation talent, even if this disciple's identity was fake, at least he was definitely the Master of Mathematical Olympiad. A respected junior.
"What the Venerable said is absolutely true, and Qi Mou was enlightened. Qi Mou also always wanted to make Quan Zi try his best to stay in the sacred mountain, but in this big world, the sacred mountain is just a mountain, no matter how big it is." Qi Tai said with emotion.
After saying this, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He saw Master Oshu turning his head, his eyes so cold that he was extremely unfamiliar.
"Be careful with your words and actions." Master Oshu only uttered these four cold words, and then turned away.
Qitai felt relieved and broke into a cold sweat with lingering fear. Only then did he realize that he had just followed the meaning of Master Oshu and had unknowingly made remarks that looked down upon the sacred mountain. And those words alone were enough to destroy his family.
He secretly glanced at this pompous venerable, and suddenly felt a little scared. Could it be that this shapeless Hua Taoist deliberately guided him to say this?
"Have you ever entered this secret realm?" Master Oshu suddenly asked.
"I've been in..." Qitai replied.
"With your strength in the lower realm of Huayu, can the dangers in this secret realm pose a threat to you?"
"Qi just ran for his life."
"How can you still pick treasures when you can run for your life?"
"This secret realm is quite weird. The stronger the person, the more serious the counterattack will be. I let two countrymen in but they came out intact."
"So you deliberately didn't tell me this rule and let my disciples go in and die?" Master Olympus turned around with a smile that made people smile on his back.
"Of course not... it's just that if I can come out, then... of course the disciple of the Venerable can also... After all, he is the disciple of the Venerable..." Qitai replied tremblingly, but there was a deep look in his eyes. , there doesn’t seem to be much fear.
Master Olympus suddenly laughed loudly, and the city lord and the boss who laughed were puzzled. After laughing for a long time, Master Olympus said:
"I have to admit...in order to launder this money, the person behind you is actually willing to spend such a heavy investment...It is not easy to create this secret realm in two days."
As soon as these words came out, Qi Tai and Li Ming felt as if they were struck by lightning, their faces turned ashen.
"Your Majesty, I am wronged. This secret realm is here. We did not lie to you!"
He looked like he was crying, as if he had really suffered a great injustice.
Lord Oshu didn't look at this obedient city lord at all, "If it's just for this little tax money, there is no need to spend such a large sum of money. The reason why he is so willing is because this thing is not only a prestige for me, but also a meeting gift..."
When Qi Tai heard this, his shrinking look dissipated a little. Seeing that the Master of Olympus had broken through the window paper, he simply stopped pretending.
In fact, from the beginning to the end, he was never really afraid of the adult in the Cave Realm in front of him, even if the opponent could destroy him with one hand.
"Sir, I have said that Master Olympus is a rare wise man in this world, and I respect you very much. Bei Aozhou's method of magic and numerology flourished for a while two thousand years ago, but it was still inconsistent with the style of Bei Aozhou people. Gradually declining, this avenue is now rarely used in Bei Aozhou, but Mr. boldly predicted that with your presence, Bei Aozhou’s level of magic will one day equal that of Nanyangzhou.”
"Stop." Master Olympus suddenly spoke up, interrupting Qi Tai's story, "What is your husband's opinion of me..."
Qi Tai was startled, thinking that he had flattered him too much, and that the Master of Olympus was ready to humble himself, but the Hua Taoist's next words shocked him.
"It's quite pertinent. Did he really say that himself?"
"Of course I wouldn't dare to make up what my husband said." Qi Taipei replied with a smile.
"He can tell people accurately, but it's a pity that he is not a fortune teller and his predictions are wrong."
"Wrong? What's wrong?"
"If I live to be five hundred years old, I will not be equal to those old donkeys in Nanyangzhou, but catch up."
Master Oshu put his hands behind his back and said proudly.
Qi Tai twitched the corner of his mouth, and was speechless for a moment by Master Oshu's shamelessness and arrogance.
"Oshu Venerable is a genius, and he got the position in the Immortal Ancestral Temple when he was in the Feather Realm, which is enough to prove this." Qi Tai changed the subject, "The value of the thing in front of me is already higher than Shuocheng's five years of tax money. If your venerable person gives this thing to you, it will definitely be a great achievement. This is a gift specially prepared by my husband for your venerable lord. I hope... your venerable person will accept it.”
"What if I don't agree?" Master Oshu raised his eyebrows and said in a frivolous tone, "My disciple will die tragically inside, and then I will cause the secret realm to collapse in order to save him. All unreasonable products, including Xuexiang tea, will You can use this traceless secret realm as an explanation, and you can even turn it around and say that I destroyed the key to the rise of your Shuocheng?"
Qitai thought to himself that the Master of Olympus really lived up to his reputation, and he could see clearly. But what puzzled him was why the Olympian Master had already guessed his master's intentions and still let his disciples put themselves in danger?
Suddenly, he thought of the answer:
"It seems that we guessed wrong... This disciple of your venerable is not important to you. The so-called show of force does not hold true."
But Lord Olympus shook his head calmly, "No, I like him very much."
Qi Tai was slightly surprised, and as if he had thought of something, his expression changed: "Could it be that His Majesty's miraculous calculation has predicted that your disciple can return safely?"
Master Olympus still shook his head and sighed lightly:
"There are many things in this world that can be known without calculation..."
……
The secret land of Xuexiang.
You Su strolled through this bizarre secret realm. The thick grass gave him the illusion of stepping on clouds with every step he took. This is the first time I have seen such lush vegetation in Bei Aozhou.
"What a pity..."
You Su talked to himself, not knowing what he was sighing for.
His eyes were accidentally attracted by a strange flower. The petals of the flower were crystal clear, like condensed morning dew. It exuded a faint fragrance and was particularly eye-catching in this sea of strange flowers and plants.
You Su couldn't help but reach out his hand and touch the tender stem lightly with his fingertips, but he never expected that this seemingly gentle flower actually hid an unknown danger. The moment his fingers came into contact with the flower stem, countless tiny spikes suddenly appeared on the originally smooth and traceless flower stem, like a cluster of thorns, shining with a cold light.
However, You Su did not flinch. Instead, with an extraordinary calmness, he allowed those sharp thorns to pierce deeply into his skin. His expression remained as calm as water, as if the pain that penetrated his body was nothing more than a trivial test to him.
Just as this strange scene was happening, a huge ice pick fell silently from the rock wall above his head, and with an indestructible force, it hit You Su blankly.
The ice pick was the size of an adult, its body was crystal clear, and it exuded a biting cold air, as if it could freeze all living things in the world.
Faced with this sudden life and death crisis, You Su seemed particularly numb. He didn't dodge, nor did he show any panic. He just squatted there quietly, as if he didn't notice the danger at all.
The ice cone fell at an astonishing speed, and finally hit the ground with a loud bang, making a deafening noise and instantly splashing countless ice shards, like the most gorgeous fireworks in winter, breathtakingly beautiful.
As for You Su, he stood tall in the gorgeous rain of ice flakes, his clothes fluttering, not stained by any ice crystals, as if he himself was beyond all the troubles of this worldly world.
"As expected..."
You Su whispered to himself, a gleam of wisdom flashed in his eyes. He slowly opened his deep black pupils, and the light red and light green lights intertwined and flickered, giving off an invisible sense of oppression.
He gently stroked the finger that was "pricked" by the sharp thorns. The fingertips were as smooth as ever, without leaving even a trace, and he couldn't help but raise an indifferent smile at the corner of his mouth.
The reason why Yousuhui chose to enter the secret realm on his own initiative was of course not out of good intentions to help Master Olympus, but because it was profitable.
Even before entering the cave, Yu Su, who had not yet opened his black eyes, could clearly see the swirling secret door. Obviously, this so-called secret realm must be inextricably related to evil spirits.
Yusu had only seen such a similar whirlpool on one Xie Sui, and that was the Dream Eater Ghost who gave him Xie Sui's 'enlightenment'!
He once entered the vortex on the Dream Eater with Tai Sui, who was pretending to be his junior sister, and it turned out to be an independent space inside.
Being able to carve out a space independently is definitely an extremely incredible ability. Even looking at the five thousand years of immortal cultivation history in the five continents, there are only a few people who are proficient in the rare space attribute, but all of them are peerless experts who have suppressed it for a lifetime.
And if this evil spirit can be killed, then Yousu, as the Lord, is very likely to obtain... no, to recover some similar abilities. This will definitely be a great help to You Su in future battles. Of course, You Su will not miss such an opportunity. What's more, there is Master Olympus here. If he can figure out that this secret realm is evil, not only will he help him, but he will also get his protection, which is a double benefit.
"What a pity..."
You Su muttered again, "It's a pity that this is not an independent space, but a shadow you made. But... this ability is not bad."
It turned out that although those spikes looked extremely sharp, they were actually just illusory appearances and could not cause real harm to him; and the ice pick falling from the sky was just an illusion used by evil spirits to test his will.
He used his black pupils to carefully search for the evil spirit's true form in this secret realm.
After the illusion was broken, the true appearance of the secret realm was revealed. It was a naturally formed hole in an ice valley.
The ground was slippery, but not because it was ice, but because the ice was covered with moss. Every step had to be done carefully to avoid slipping.
Suddenly, You Su's eyes were fixed on the mid-air, where there was a dark object floating there, shaped like a huge jellyfish, squirming slowly, exuding a nauseating stench.
He did not hesitate, his body flashed, turned into an afterimage, and rushed towards the black jellyfish at an astonishing speed, the Mo Song sword in his hand was already unsheathed.
The black jellyfish seemed to be aware of Yusu's approach. It squirmed and ran away, accompanied by a sound like waves.
Once the evil spirits of the dream world are revealed, they no longer pose a terrible threat. Facing Yu Su's pursuit, Black Jellyfish could only rely on its agile actions to evade.
But this ice cave is airtight, like a prison specially made for this black jellyfish. After all, it has nowhere to escape.
Mo Songjian made a clear sword sound, and You Su kicked hard on the ice wall. The sword energy was powerful and pointed directly under the jellyfish.
But at this moment, the mutation reappeared!
The black jellyfish that had always been escaping actually no longer evaded, but opened all the dark tentacles under its body, like a huge mouth to welcome Yu Su's unstoppable sword edge!
You Su immediately realized that he had been deceived. This black jellyfish was not only capable of illusions, but also had strategies!
Unfortunately, it was too late. One of the black jellyfish's tentacles tightly wrapped around Mo Songjian, and then quickly wrapped around his wrist along the sword body. The tentacle seemed to have infinite power, and with a sudden pull, he was dragged into the jellyfish's dark body.
In an instant, You Su was enveloped in a thick and cold liquid, making it extremely difficult to breathe. It was pitch black all around, and he couldn't see his fingers. He seemed to be dragged into an endless abyss, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity and uneasiness surged into his heart at the same time.
However, You Su was not panicked by this. He took a deep breath and tried to calm down the fluctuations in his heart. He knew that in the face of these filthy things, any fear or hesitation could become a fatal weakness.
Fall, another endless fall.
The good life in the past gradually emerged like a revolving lantern, the laughter and curses with the junior sister, the respect with the senior sister as guests, the tit-for-tat confrontation with Xueruo, and the mutual devotion with the junior sister...
All of this seems to remind Yousu of the happiness of his previous life, making him regret his decision to control his own destiny.
It's a pity that this deceptive trick can't sway Yousu at all.
Just as You Su stabilized his body and prepared to find the weak point of this strange jellyfish, a light curtain attracted his attention.
The picture in this light curtain is not his memory.
It was a beautiful fairy with a fluttering white dress. She was lying in the same environment as him, with a look of sadness on her face.
But like You Su, she was also attracted by an unexpected light curtain. In that light curtain, he was actually standing in front of Master's wife's empty room, calling desperately for Master's wife.
Then, as if she had been reborn, the mistress shattered the dark curtain with a breathtakingly beautiful sword.
"Master Wife...have you been here too..."
The corners of You Su's lips curled up, and he suddenly felt like he shared the same fate as his wife.
The black jellyfish exploded like fireworks, and the black blood splashed onto the translucent ice wall, giving it a weird beauty.
I wonder if the dead black jellyfish will remember that it experienced a similar death not long ago.
