Wait a minute, where is my master?

Chapter 77 A Plain Meeting



"The familiar force and aura of the Ink Jade Sect, coupled with the sharpness emitted by the surface of the arrow and the rune on it,"

"Could this place also be the legacy site mentioned by the Skull?"

The young Taoist speculated this possibility, but he was somewhat puzzled.

These two places are not related at all.

One is a site of the Age Chicken, recognized in the Mountain and Sea Realm as a staple in the diet of all beings; the other is the residence of a bizarre species notorious for its countless misdeeds.

What kind of mindset would someone have to leave their legacy in such peculiar places?

For Little Hong, it could be explained that the person leaving the legacy had a taste for exotic delicacies, but what about this place?

Could it be the very servant he kept...?

"Eh!? Now that I think about it, it's not impossible. But if this person placed their legacy in such a hidden place, did they intend to spread it or purposely hide it?"

As he reasoned, Jin Xu was suddenly struck by new doubts.

At this point, he was less than a hundred meters away from the Formation where the Tianxing Taoist was.

However, just then, at the corner of the crystal stone corridor in front of the young Taoist, a man in tattered clothes suddenly appeared. He was a male Cultivator of the Human Race.

The Cultivator's face and Taoist robe were smeared with dark red blood, his aura extremely weak, and his right arm hung limply at his shoulder, clearly broken.

Yet upon seeing Jin Xu and his companions, a surge of joy ignited in his eyes, making them particularly bright.

"Save me, Fellow Daoist! Ahem... cough, my Taoist name is Yu Jizi, and I was captured by the Chaos Clan three days before the last full moon. Just now, due to the tremors, all the Chaos Clan guards left, cough cough...cough cough, allowing me the chance to escape. Please, seeing as we are both Cultivators of the Human Race, save me from this hell. I..."

The man claiming to be Yu Jizi spoke while violently coughing.

By the time he finished, he suddenly vomited a large mouthful of fresh blood, collapsed forward weakly, and heavily crashed onto the crystal stone corridor, motionless.

"My lord, this person's appearance is suspicious, save him or not?"

The suddenly appearing severely injured male Cultivator left the two women and one elephant somewhat confused. Yu Yaoer even subconsciously prepared the Healing Skill in her hands, waiting only for the young Taoist's command to release it.

However, after hearing Little Fish Demon's words, Jin Xu raised his eyebrows with a playful look and replied:

"Of course we must save him, but shall I do it?"

"My lord, you will?"

Upon hearing the young Taoist say this, Yu Yaoer was puzzled when her master had learned any healing skills.

Immediately after, she heard Jin Xu say to Little Purple Spirit Elephant.

"Little Zi, let me use your body!"

Before his words fell, Yu Yaoer saw her master envelop the Little Purple Spirit Elephant entirely with golden spiritual power, then harshly slammed it onto the unconscious Cultivator on the ground.

"My lord, is there something wrong with this person?"

"Yes, a transformation of the Chaos Clan."

As Jin Xu spoke to Little Fish Demon, the resplendent Little Purple Spirit Elephant fiercely smashed onto the unsuspecting Cultivator's back, eliciting a half-scream of agony from his body.

The man then passed out from the pain.

While the originally flawless appearance of the Human Race cultivator had instantly transformed into the warning sign colors, with a big mouth and small limbs typical of the Chaos Clan.

To be honest, Jin Xu felt that the other's tactic of morphing into a Human Race cultivator to elicit his sympathy was somewhat insulting to his intelligence.

Firstly, his Spiritual Sense could directly observe that this person's Qi was different from that of Human Race cultivators.

Moreover, you transformed into a human right under the Taoist's Spiritual Sense monitoring!

This was just like a fish tank without water—everything about the fish was plainly visible!

"This clan's Innate Divine Ability is indeed quite interesting, and now I understand how Nan Taoist knew they were called the Chaos Clan."

As Jin Xu spoke, he controlled the Golden Spiritual Power Light Shield to float in front of the unconscious Chaos Clan cultivator, his eyes shimmering faintly with silver light as he meticulously examined him.

He hadn't expected that this creature, when morphed into a Human Race cultivator, would also speak the common language of the Nine Provinces.

"Never mind, I'll go find master first, and after picking up the master, it won't be too late to study this strange tribe and the Ink Jade door under that Formation. Moreover, I've been here for so long, why hasn't the 'god' that Nan Taoist mentioned from the Chaos Clan shown up yet?"

The Taoist paused briefly, a flame sprouting from his fingertips, turning the unconscious person of the Chaos Clan on the ground into flying ashes.

In his Spiritual Sense, there were quite a few Chaos Clan individuals gathered here and there nearby, but ever since the first two waves of attacks had failed, they no longer dared to approach Jin Xu's route.

Even though the Taoist's route now directly led to their dwelling's apparently crucial 'Divine Array.'

It was only a hundred steps away.

With Jin Xu's speed, it was almost in the blink of an eye, and he appeared before the strange Formation that engulfed Tianxing Taoist.

"Elder Master, is the one in the very center the Elder Master?"

There was nothing obstructing around this so-called 'Divine Array' of the Chaos Clan, and the black Crystal Stones and various kinds of cultivators were hapharzadly piled up, much like a disorganized warehouse.

The reason Little White could quickly identify Tianxing Taoist was that she had once sensed a faint whiff of the Elder Master's presence in Xuanxu Temple.

Of course, the main reason was that there was only Tianxing Taoist wearing a Taoist robe in the Formation.

"Yes, that is the master."

Jin Xu stood before this Formation, his eyes brimming with emotions for a moment before settling back into calmness.

He had indeed fantasized about many scenarios of a master-disciple reunion after the Elder Master went missing—whether thrilling, feverish, sensational, or grandiose.

But he had never thought of this particular mundane scenario.

It was like an ordinary afternoon when you walked past a street corner in Shangjing City and suddenly saw an old friend you hadn't seen in a long time—it was so undramatic, so natural, and so tranquil.

Jin Xu, looking at Tianxing Taoist with his eyes closed and a serene expression sitting in the middle of the Formation, couldn't help but slightly curve the corners of his mouth upward.

"Indeed, life is not a novel filled with bizarre scenarios. A simple meeting like this is pretty good," he murmured softly, then without turning back, he instructed the two women, "Stay inside the Spiritual Power Shield."

Having said that, the Taoist took a step forward, a trace of Golden Thunder Arc bursting from his fingertips, piercing through the outer protective layer of the 'Divine Array' before him. Then, the Golden Thunder Arc accurately and swiftly leapt among the black Crystal Stones on the ground.

A moment later.

All the black Crystal Stones in the Formation turned into powder.

And Jin Xu, with a tap of his toe on the ground, instantly appeared in front of Tianxing Taoist, and softly said.

"Master, your disciple has come to take you back to the temple."
