Hearing Hao Yun's words, Mu Chen gave an awkward smile.
"What's there to worry about? But since Elder Hao likes it, then take it with you."
"I can't just take it for free, you can keep this bottle of pills."
Hao Yun took a porcelain bottle out of his system inventory, tossed it over, and then picked up the two little Qilin on the ground and left.
The two people who had led the way earlier had their eyes turn red when they saw the porcelain bottle in Mu Chen's hand.
"What are you looking at? If you're so capable, why don't you catch two Qilins yourself?"
Mu Chen hurriedly tucked the porcelain bottle into his arms, fearing that the two people would come and snatch it.
What Hao Yun gave him was a pill to increase his cultivation. Because the medicinal materials needed for this pill were hard to find, Hao Yun didn't refine many of them. There were many disciples in the sect, and only a few could get one.
“If we hadn’t brought Elder Hao here, you would have been able to get this bottle of pills. At least one pill for each of us, otherwise we would have told everyone about it.”
Mu Chen was furious after hearing what the two said, but he was helpless. If this matter were to be told, he would definitely be punished because he had sneaked out.
"Fine, you guys win! One for each of you, keep them safe. If you tell anyone, you'll lose all your friends."
"Hehehe, don't worry, we're very tight-lipped."
The two put the pills into their pockets and slipped out like thieves.
Hao Yun, who took the Qilin away, is now taming them in the yard. These two little creatures have a bad temper and either scratch or bite Hao Yun.
"If you don't behave, I'll roast you and eat you!"
The Qilin that had been relentlessly ramming Hao Yun's shin just moments before immediately stopped. They were intelligent and knew that Hao Yun had saved them; they were simply angry at Hao Yun's rough treatment of them.
"From now on, you two stay in the yard and don't bite anyone who comes in, unless they are the ones bullying you."
After giving them some instructions, Hao Yun tossed them a few pills and then left them to their own devices.
After swallowing the pills, the two little Qilins lay down at Hao Yun's feet and fell into a deep sleep, seemingly absorbing the medicinal power of the pills.
Lying in the rocking chair, Hao Yun looked at the two little Qilin and felt as if he were raising two dogs.
In the days that followed, Hao Yun began to devote himself to cultivating the Sword Manual. Perhaps it was due to his aptitude, but after reaching the Xuanxian realm, Hao Yun clearly felt that his cultivation speed began to decline.
If it weren't for the aid of elixirs, Hao Yun even doubted whether his cultivation would be stuck at the Xuanxian realm.
For over forty years, Hao Yun remained a Xuanxian, only he had risen from the early stage of Xuanxian to the perfect stage.
The Golden Immortal realm is within reach, yet there's no way to break through, giving one the feeling of a mirage.
With the day of his return fast approaching, Hao Yun stood atop Mount Emei, gazing at everything around him, and couldn't help but shake his head.
Even though he knew he would have to leave sooner or later, Hao Yun was still a little reluctant to part with him.
"You're out of quarantine, wanna grab a drink?"
Upon learning that Hao Yun had emerged from seclusion, the Xuantian Sect rushed over without hesitation.
Hao Yun glanced at Xuan Tianzong and tossed a bottle of wine over.
"If I disappear one day, will you still remember me?"
Thumbs up!
Xuan Tianzong took a big gulp of wine, sat on a rock, and looked at Hao Yun with a puzzled expression. He wondered to himself, "What's wrong with this guy today? Why has he suddenly become so philosophical?"
"Probably."
The two exchanged a glance, then smiled at each other and clinked their bottles together.
If the two of them hadn't both gotten completely drunk, who knows how long they would have continued drinking.
[Your stay has ended; you are returning.]
In his drowsy state, Hao Yun seemed to hear a system notification, but he didn't pay attention to it, turned over, and continued to sleep.
When Hao Yun regained consciousness, he found himself back in the main world.
With a soft sigh, Hao Yun walked out of the room, stood in the courtyard, and began to stare blankly at the sky.
The midday sun was scorching. Hao Yun stretched his neck and began taking things out of his system backpack.
The first thing Hao Yun did was to plant the spirit trees he had obtained through the treacherous means. To ensure that these spirit trees could not survive, Hao Yun planted them all around the World Tree.
Chapter 113 Nezha World
During his time in the Shushan Chronicles world, Hao Yun acquired many valuable items. Not to mention the spirit trees, in addition to the more than one hundred he dug up in Kunlun Mountain, there were also some collected by sect disciples.
After planting nearly three hundred spirit fruit trees, Hao Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Opening his system inventory, Hao Yun slapped his forehead, realizing he'd almost forgotten about those two little things.
Hao Yun took out two Qilin, each the size of a piglet, removed the formation on them, and awakened them.
Normally, Hao Yun's system backpack cannot store living creatures, but Hao Yun's imagination runs wild.
After trying various methods, Hao Yun finally found this way to smuggle them in: first, seal the Qilin to put them into a state of suspended animation, and then use an array to isolate their aura.
Awakening from their apparent death, the two little Qilins let out a few dissatisfied cries.
"Quiet down. This is your home from now on. Remember, hide when you see strangers, understand?"
Hao Yun patted the two little Qilin on the head, and seeing that they didn't care, he said fiercely.
"If you disobey me, I will kill you and eat your flesh!"
"Awooo!"
The little Qilin cried out twice to indicate that it understood, and then ran to cultivate under the World Tree.
As for Hao Yun, he was squatting to the side setting up an array. The materials for setting up the array were, of course, obtained from Mount Emei.
Before returning to the main world, Hao Yun emptied half of the treasure vault. This was only because he had a change of heart; otherwise, he would have packed it all up and brought it back.
For the mountain-protecting formation, Hao Yun set up the Three Powers and Two Elements Formation, which he was most familiar with. This formation had extremely strong defensive capabilities.
Three hours later, the formation was completed. Hao Yun stood at the center of the formation and activated it. Instantly, an invisible energy shield enveloped all three surrounding mountains.
Seeing that the formation was functioning correctly, Hao Yun deactivated it and began setting up trapping and maze formations...
After setting up thirteen magic arrays in one go, Hao Yun finally stopped, and his three mountains were completely transformed into an impenetrable fortress.
These thirteen magic arrays are all arranged around the World Tree, and the World Tree is naturally the core of the array.
After all, the World Tree will not perish as long as the world is not destroyed.
With the World Tree providing power for the formation, even if nuclear peace were to occur, the thirteen formations set up by Hao Yun would be useless.
After finishing the setup, Hao Yun rested for a while, but found it a bit boring, so he chose to continue his journey through time.
A time-space portal appeared, and Hao Yun vanished from the main world in a flash.
[Current World: Nezha: Birth of the Demon Child (Stay Time: 30 Days)]
After landing smoothly, before Hao Yun could even check his surroundings, a dark shadow crashed into him.
Ouch!
The drunken Master Taiyi had just received instructions from his master to come to Chentang Pass to help Lingzhu reincarnate. As he was on his way, a person suddenly appeared in front of him. This person was none other than Hao Yun.
The two collided, and Taiyi Zhenren, who was riding on the pig, was sent flying backward with a bang.
Hao Yun also stepped back, rubbing his stomach as he frowned at the person who had bumped into him.
With just one glance, based on the system's prompts, Hao Yun was certain that the person in front of him was Taiyi Zhenren. After all, what normal person would ride a pig?
"Fellow Daoist, are you alright?"
Despite his stout build, Taiyi Zhenren had a good temper. He shook his head and began to inquire about Hao Yun's health.
"fine."
Hao Yun replied casually, wondering to himself where the plot was at. Judging from Taiyi's expression, he should be able to extract some information from him.
"Fellow Daoist, where are you rushing off to?"
Taiyi coughed and straightened his clothes.
"I am on my way to Chentang Pass. I do not know where your immortal mountain is. I am busy today, so I will visit you another day."
Hao Yun's mind immediately started working. He headed towards Chen Tang Pass, apparently to help Ling Zhu reincarnate. He wondered if he should go with her.
"What a coincidence! I also happen to have something to do in Chentang Pass. Why don't we go together?"
"this···"
Taiyi Zhenren hesitated, and Hao Yun chuckled and took out two bottles of wine from his pocket.
"Fellow Daoist, since we're traveling together, why not celebrate with a drink? This is a hundred-fruit wine that I've carefully brewed. Would you like to try some?"
Knowing Taiyi Zhenren's weakness, Hao Yun smiled and took out a bottle of Hundred Fruit Wine...
"I'm so sorry, but I'll just try it, just a small bite."
Master Taiyi smiled憨厚ly, took the wine bottle, and drank half of it in one gulp.
"Great!"
"Fellow Daoist, how does my wine taste?"
"Excellent, truly a masterpiece, a rare find in the world."
Hao Yun saw the ecstatic look on Taiyi Zhenren's face and knew that the matter had been accomplished.
"Fellow Daoist, why don't we head to Chentang Pass first, and then find a place to sit down and chat?"
Hao Yun's reminder made Taiyi Zhenren remember what his master had instructed him to do, so he hurriedly nodded.
"Yes, yes, let's go to Chen Tang Pass first. Fellow Daoist, do you still have any wine?"
Feeling a little embarrassed, Taiyi shook the empty wine bottle in his hand and couldn't resist asking for another one.
"Of course I have some, but not many. You can have this bottle."
Hao Yun's magnanimous reply impressed Taiyi, who secretly thought he was a good person.
The two of them, one riding a sword and the other riding a pig, headed towards Chentang Pass together.
