Chapter 113 Jiuxuan Mountain
It was already evening when we returned to Anhe Village.
Before even setting foot into the house, Qin Ziling felt an extremely strong sense of crisis.
This was a feeling he had never experienced since he came into this world.
But Qin Ziling still walked in proudly.
This is his home, and living in it are his family, whom he is willing to protect even at the cost of his own life.
As soon as Qin Ziling stepped into the hanging flower gate, he saw two people sitting on the left and right of the eight-immortal table in the central hall opposite the hanging flower gate across the courtyard.
Sitting on the left was Cui, and on the right sat a beautiful woman wearing a Taoist robe whose exact age could not be determined.
The reason why he couldn't tell her age was that when Qin Ziling took one look at the woman, whether it was the smooth and delicate skin or the tall and full figure that could not be concealed by the loose Taoist robe, he gave him the feeling of a girl in her twenties. However, her charm and temperament were actually like a mature beauty.
Liu Xiaoqiang and Yin Ranyue stood on both sides respectively, Liu Xiaoqiang stood on the left and Yin Ranyue stood on the right.
In addition to this beautiful woman whose age was unknown, there was also a two-meter-tall, red monster with five bird heads in the courtyard.
The shape of this strange beast is very similar to the four heads in the corpse-raising ring, but it has an additional bird head.
Qin Ziling couldn't tell the Taoist nun's strength, but the strange beast's blood was surging like the sea. Just standing casually in the courtyard, Qin Ziling felt as if she was facing thousands of troops alone.
"Young Master!" Yin Ranyue couldn't help but show a look of surprise when she saw Qin Ziling coming in, and subconsciously ran towards him quickly.
However, before Yin Ranyue stepped out of the hall, she was pulled back as if by an invisible force.
"Is he the young master you've been thinking about? Is he the one who taught you the method of Qi training?" The Taoist nun asked calmly, her red lips slightly parted.
"Fairy, yes, yes, he is very good and must be a genius in cultivation." Yin Ranyue nodded repeatedly.
Upon hearing this, the Taoist nun did not answer Yin Ranyue but looked at Qin Ziling.
As soon as the Taoist nun's watchful eyes looked over at him, Qin Ziling felt a chill run through his body, as if he had been stripped naked in an instant.
"He has a body of mixed five elements and has no hope of becoming an immortal." The Taoist nun quickly withdrew her gaze and said calmly.
"This is impossible! Fairy, please help me take a look again!" Yin Ranyue became anxious when she heard that.
"From now on, he will be just an ordinary man, but you are destined to be extraordinary. I have delayed for you for a long time. Now this earthly relationship is over. Come with me." The Taoist nun did not agree to Yin Ranyue's request, and said calmly.
"If the young master and the mistress don't leave, I won't leave either. I am a member of the Qin family in life and a ghost of the Qin family in death!" Yin Ranyue said with a firm face when he heard it.
"That's not up to you!" the nun said calmly, then she raised her hand and stretched out her jade-like fingers to lightly touch Yin Ranyue's brow.
"What are you going to do to Ran Yue?" Qin Ziling's face suddenly changed when he saw this, but he did not act rashly.
Just the five-headed monster bird alone could easily crush him based on his intuition, and the same result would occur even if he released three bronze corpses.
What's more, the Taoist nun was obviously the owner of these five strange birds.
"I'm just helping her end her worldly ties. You can continue to live your lives from now on. Ran Yue will have nothing to do with you anymore." The nun said calmly.
As the nun was speaking, Yin Ranyue's determined gaze began to waver, with painful struggles and confused looks alternating. Finally, she seemed unable to bear the conflict and passed out.
Qin Ziling also practiced the way of the soul, and he knew very well that once the soul became powerful enough, it could erase some of a person's memories, or even modify a person's memories.
Like his possession technique, it is actually a spell to control the mind and memory of others. The bewitching technique is a way to confuse or even modify memory, but these are only temporary. After a period of time, the other party will regain consciousness and he will be able to get rid of it. Moreover, Qin Ziling needs to let his entire soul leave his body to perform this technique.
Only when one reaches the realm of distraction can one perform it easily without having to let the whole soul leave the body. However, it is easy to completely erase a person's memory, but it is still very difficult to modify a person's memory. If one can really do it, it is almost like touching the threshold of possession.
To possess a body, one must not only completely assimilate and devour the other person's spirit and consciousness, but also be able to completely merge with the other person's body, making the other person's body completely one's own. Otherwise, the soul and spirit cannot merge and conflict, and after a long time, either the soul dies or the spirit disperses.
This is somewhat similar to modern organ transplant surgery. Organ transplantation is easy, but the key is to ensure integration and avoid rejection, otherwise the transplant will only be temporary.
Of course, possession of another's body is much more mysterious and profound than transplanting a device.
The behavior of this Taoist nun now is obviously an attempt to forcibly tamper with Yin Ranyue's memory. Qin Ziling doesn't know whether there is such magic in the Qi Refining Taoism, but in the Spirit Cultivation Taoism, if the memory change is long-term, this move has almost touched the threshold of possession, comparable to the old demon Li Mo.
So when Qin Ziling watched the change in Yin Ranyue's eyes, he felt angry and extremely horrified in his heart. At the same time, he dared not act rashly. Instead, he bowed and said with a look of "great fear and trepidation" on his face.
"Ran Yue can practice with the fairy and ascend to heaven in one step. That is her blessing. I should be happy for her. But she and I are in love. I am reluctant to part with the immortals. Please leave me the name of the immortal mountain so that I can keep it in mind."
"You have a body composed of the five elements. Even if you get a book on refining qi, it is doomed to be in vain. You'd better give up this delusion." said the Taoist nun.
"If the way of refining Qi doesn't work, there is still the way of martial arts. Fairy should be able to see that I am following the path of martial arts. I heard that when martial arts are practiced to a certain level, one can also break through the void and become a martial immortal. Maybe in the future I can go to the fairy mountain to reunite with Ran Yue." Qin Ziling said.
"Break the void and become a martial immortal?" The Taoist nun seemed to have heard something extremely absurd. She finally looked at Qin Ziling again with her wonderful eyes and said, "If you practice martial arts to the extreme, you can indeed break the void and become a martial immortal. However, that is much more difficult than achieving the golden elixir path. Don't have such delusions!"
"Even if it's just a delusion, it still has a purpose. Please help me, Fairy." Qin Ziling bowed and pleaded.
As Qin Ziling bowed and begged, Yin Ranyue's eyes slowly woke up from her coma.
After waking up, her eyes were extremely clear and bright, but when she looked at Qin Ziling, her brows slightly frowned, as if she was trying hard to recall something, and her eyes once again revealed a look of painful struggle.
The Taoist nun's face changed slightly when she saw this. She took Yin Ranyue's hand and without any movement, she flew into the air and landed on the five strange birds with Yin Ranyue.
The five strange birds spread their wings and flew into the sky.
"Jiuxuan Mountain."
The voice of a Taoist nun was heard from far away in the air, and then a bird and two women disappeared into the horizon.
"Jiuxuan Mountain! Jiuxuan Mountain! One day, I will climb up Jiuxuan Mountain, catch you, a stinky bitch and give you a good beating!" Qin Ziling looked in the distance at the direction where the bird and two women disappeared, his face gloomy and his eyes full of ferocity.
After a long time, Qin Ziling suppressed the hatred, unwillingness and deep reluctance in his heart. He retracted his gaze and looked at Cui who was crying quietly beside him.
"Mom, don't be sad. One day, I will find Ranyue back." Qin Ziling comforted her.
"Ran Yue is destined to become an immortal. Mother is so happy for her that I don't even have time to be sad. I just can't bear to let her go. Also, you must not blaspheme fairies. Fairies have boundless magical powers. If anyone finds out, it will be a disaster for you!" Cui said, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Mom, I understand." Qin Ziling nodded, but sneered in his heart.
In a previous nightmare, he rode a golden corpse with a dragon head and a bird body and flew in the night sky. In the eyes of ordinary people, he was probably either a god or a demon.
The Taoist nun was a fairy in the eyes of ordinary people, but in Qin Ziling's eyes, she was just a strong person that he couldn't resist now. She dared to snatch Yin Ranyue and tried to ruthlessly erase her memory of the Qin family. If there was a chance in the future, Qin Ziling would do more than just blaspheme her!
However, in order not to worry his mother, Qin Ziling naturally would not refute or make any excuses.
"It's a pity that you don't have the fate to become an immortal, otherwise you and Ran Yue would both have the fate to become immortal lovers, how wonderful it would be!" Cui said.
"Mom, if you practice martial arts to the extreme, you can become an immortal. Don't worry, one day I will climb Jiuxuan Mountain." Qin Ziling said.
"There is a difference between immortals and mortals, and you can't force it. You are already very outstanding now, and mother is already very satisfied. Don't worry about Ranyue's matter. As long as she lives well, we should all be happy for her, don't you think?" Cui said.
"Yes, mother." Qin Ziling nodded.
"You haven't eaten yet? Mother will prepare dinner for you now." After saying this, Cui walked towards the kitchen.
When Cui turned around, tears started to flow out again.
Having depended on each other for so many years, even if they were not mother and daughter, they were as close as mother and daughter. Although Cui said that she was happy for Yin Ranyue, she was really sad and reluctant in her heart.
Qin Ziling looked at his mother's lonely back which seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. He clenched his fists tightly, veins bulging, and he wanted to roar to the sky to vent the humiliation and anger in his heart.
These days, he can be said to have developed smoothly in this world, and even killed a martial artist with great power.
Originally, he thought that he finally had the ability to protect himself and his family in this world, and he couldn't help but feel proud and complacent in secret.
As a result, this happened suddenly.
In front of that Taoist nun, he was too weak. She did whatever she wanted without caring about his feelings. Even when she forcibly erased Yin Ranyue's memory and took her away directly , he did not dare to resist and had to smile and ask for the title of Xianshan.
"Strength! Strength!" Qin Ziling kept repeating these two words in his mind. After a long time, he let out a long breath and his mood gradually calmed down.
"Liu Xiaoqiang, what's going on?" After calming down, Qin Ziling asked in a deep voice.
"My Lord, I don't know the details. I only know that after lunch, I was practicing martial arts in the courtyard, and Miss Ran Yue was sitting cross-legged beside the well, breathing in and out. Suddenly, the fairy rode a fairy beast and landed in the courtyard. Then she said that Miss Ran Yue had a thunder spirit root physique and asked her to follow her."
"Thunder spiritual root?" Qin Ziling frowned slightly when he heard that. He only knew about the five elements of spiritual roots: gold, wood, water, fire and earth, but didn't know what thunder spiritual root was.
"I don't know either, but that's what the fairy seemed to say." Liu Xiaoqiang said.
"That bullshit fairy is nothing more than a Qi-refining sorcerer who relies on her powerful magic to act lawlessly and arbitrarily! It's just that my cultivation level is low now. If I were to have a higher level of cultivation, would she dare to do this?
This kind of person who bullies the weak is the most abominable, and is not worthy of the word fairy at all. One day, when I really have the strength, I will definitely punish this bitch severely!" Qin Ziling said with a gloomy face.
