Chapter 240

Bai Yun Cave has a world of its own. When Xu Qing first saw it in the old Daoist's dream, he didn't feel much, but when he personally entered the dream entrusted by the Holy Lady, he realized the wonder of this cave heaven.

Inside this cave, the plains are no less than a thousand qing. Looking into the distance, towering ancient trees exist with the world, and strange flowers and exotic grasses do not wither in eternal spring. Before entering the cave, one still feels the cave is narrow, cramped, and dark without sun. Only after entering the cave does one know that this place is a paradise, an immortal's dwelling!

It's no wonder that Bai Yun Daoist would trust the Holy Lady so much.

If it weren't for Xu Qing knowing the Holy Lady's actions in advance through the Deliverance Sutra, I'm afraid that at the first sight of the other party, he would also be bluffed.

"Handsome young man, are you also here to seek immortality and ask about the Dao?"

The old woman leaned on a hundred-section bamboo staff, her demeanor peaceful when she spoke, just like an old monk who often meditates and worships Buddha.

Xu Qing squinted at the old demon woman before him, his gaze very unkind!

The person who directed the Bai Yun Daoist to use the Nine-Life Mysterious Cat as a medicine guide to refine the Immortal Longevity Pill was an old woman, and the mastermind who lured Xuanyu into Yunmeng Mountain and into the Bai Yun Daoist's trap was also an old woman.

Xu Qing had heard this information from Eunuch Liao's revolving lantern and had also confirmed it from Xuanyu.

Although Xu Qing had not yet seen the face of that old woman, it did not prevent him from placing all his prejudices on the old lady before him.

Forcing down the urge to strike, Xu Qing suppressed the restlessness in his heart and said with a somewhat dry and hoarse voice: "Seven years ago, you were the one who drove the Bai Yun demon Daoist to lure and capture the Nine-Life Mysterious Cat, right?"

The old woman who called herself the Holy Lady was stunned and wondered: "Although I taught him the Longevity Pill technique, and there is indeed a Nine-Life medicine guide in it, I never told him about it. I didn't expect him to really find it..."

A trace of doubt appeared in Xu Qing's eyes. Could it be that the old demon woman who lured Xuanyu was someone else?

That's right! The old woman who deceived Xuanyu had walked in the world and lived with Xuanyu for a period of time, while the old lady before him seemed to be locked in Bai Yun Cave and could not leave at will...

Xu Qing quickly sorted out his thoughts, but even so, his disgust for the old lady before him did not decrease by half.

Even if she didn't deceive Xuanyu, the old lady had indirectly caused Xuanyu to lose a life by teaching the Bai Yun Daoist the evil method of refining pills!

Not to mention those infants who had just left their mother's womb and were refined into "immortal medicine" by the Bai Yun Daoist.

The old woman didn't care about Xu Qing's thoughts at all. She said urgently: "I am a disciple under the seat of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, called the Holy Lady. Because I was taught sixteen kinds of Heavenly Books by the Bodhisattva, I have been waiting for a fated person in this Bai Yun Cave. I see that you have an extraordinary appearance and a sincere heart for seeking immortality. If you are willing to worship me as your teacher, I am willing to grant you the divine knife sacrifice method obtained from the Heavenly Book and that longevity technique together."

The familiar divine knife, the familiar longevity technique.

It's a pity that these two things might have full temptation for others, but for Xu Qing...

Is the divine knife as powerful as his Tiangang axe? As for the longevity technique, he wouldn't even look at it if it were thrown on the street!

Xu Qing tried to look sideways at the stone wall engraved with Heavenly Book runes behind the Holy Lady, but was blocked completely by the other party.

This old hag...

"I heard that Bai Yun Cave is where Yuan Gong cultivated, but I have never heard of any Holy Lady." Xu Qing grinned and said: "Old lady, you can fool others, but you can't fool me!"

"Your first disciple, Yuankong, was killed by the Bai Yun demon Daoist. You didn't stand up for your disciple, but instead took the demon Daoist as a disciple. Now that I have killed that old Daoist, you want to take me as a disciple."

Xu Qing looked at the old woman before him, as if he had suddenly figured something out.

"The method you use to sacrifice the divine knife should be the way you escape this cave heaven, right?"

Whether it was the Bai Yun Daoist or him, when the old woman entrusted a dream to teach the method, she taught the Ghost-Headed Divine Knife and the method of refining evil pills.

Most of those pills, once refined, were used by people and did not have the ability to open the seal of Bai Yun Cave. Only the evil divine knife, which evolved by relying on blood food, was most easily planted with traps and means.

The old woman's face changed drastically when she heard this: "The immortal methods I taught all come from the Nine-Heaven Secret Books, and there is not a word of falsehood. You young man suspect me, but do you dare to question that the Heavenly Book is incomplete?"

"I don't know if the Heavenly Book is incomplete, but I know that what you taught are all evil and immoral methods. If the Heavenly Book records such goods, then it is not a Heavenly Book!"

Xu Qing approached the old hag, his gaze falling on the other party: "If you are really a disciple of the Bodhisattva, why don't you reveal the true appearance of the Heavenly Book for me to see?"

However, the old hag refused to move away from the passage outside the stone wall.

"Your heart is not sincere! I will not pass this method to you. Leave quickly, and don't defile my pure place!"

Just as the old woman's words fell, Xu Qing felt a force repelling him from all around, and he also had signs of wanting to wake up at this moment.

But could the old woman easily send him out?

That is absolutely impossible!

As the saying goes, it is easy to invite a god but hard to send one away. Now that the Baosheng Niangniang has come to investigate the case of Ruyi Temple and has finally found Bai Yun Cave, how could she give up just like that!

Xu Qing decisively performed the Dream-Making Technique, forcibly hypnotizing himself, who was about to wake up, again.

Xu Qing, who was in the dream, became more energetic the more he chanted the Dream-Rising Incantation.

The Holy Lady stared with wide eyes. How could she not send this person out?

The hundred-section bamboo staff brought up a whirlwind and swung forward, but Xu Qing seemed to be rooted on the mountain rock, not moving a bit.

The Holy Lady didn't believe it. She simply lifted her cloth skirt, revealing her long hairy legs, and stuck her butt out at Xu Qing.

"..."

A fishy and pungent smell came, but Xu Qing saw the fox butt and fox tail revealed under the other party's cloth skirt!

This disgusting old fox was actually peeing at him!

It disgusted Xu Qing to the extreme.

The Dream-Making Technique was performed again, and Xu Qing created something out of nothing, with a night-soil bucket appearing in his hand.

To cover the Heavenly Book, the old fox didn't dare to leave at will, so she had to stand in front of the stone wall passage, letting the thick soup and strange water in the night-soil bucket splash on her.

"Young man, you are rude!" The old lady lifted her wide sleeves to deal with it in a sorry state.

This time, it was the old fox's dream that became unstable.

The dream of Bai Yun Cave Heaven was built by the old fox. If Xu Qing were driven away by her, it would be fine. But if she, the owner of the dream, were driven away by Xu Qing, who had taken over as the master, she would inevitably suffer a backlash of divine power.

The old lady was so angry that her body trembled, and even her hunched waist was straightened by anger.

She had cultivated for so many years, and besides Yuan Gong's master, this was the first time she had encountered another person who restrained her everywhere.

Seeing that the young man was difficult to deal with, the old fox finally sacrificed the divine knife she had refined.

Xu Qing looked up, and his heart sank.

This knife really had a problem!

The Bai Yun demon Daoist used infant resentment to sacrifice the knife, but the baleful energy of that knife was not even half of what was in the old woman's hand.

It can be seen how many innocent lives this old fox had harmed during her lifetime by relying on this method.

The old woman threw away the bamboo staff and reached out to slap the scabbard three times. Then, a whistling sound raged over the entire stone cliff, as if thousands of infants were crying in her ears, and as if fierce gods from the underground were baring their fangs and claws, roaring all over the sky.

As the divine knife leaped, a blood-colored rainbow light cut from south to north, straight toward Xu Qing's neck!

That knife could not be received; it could not be taken!

Even Xu Qing, who was in the stage of Three Changes of the Corpse, did not have the confidence to take it all.

This old fox was at least a thousand-year-old fox demon!

In the dream, where the rainbow light passed, flowers and plants withered, and thousand-year-old ancient trees that could reach the sky were all destroyed.

The old woman holding the scabbard smiled.

However, the next moment.

When the smoke and dust cleared, she found that the white-robed youth standing in front of the mountain cliff had disappeared, replaced by a Baosheng Niangniang who was ethereal and radiating holy brilliance all over her body.

The old woman believed that her demeanor and behavior could fool all the mortals in the world. Even when she was not imprisoned in Bai Yun Cave, others would call her Holy Auntie or Living Bodhisattva when they saw her.

Once, someone even regarded her as the Samantabhadra Bodhisattva descended to the world.
