Chapter 186: Home Field

Lu Xingzhou's heart also felt heavy.

He rarely thought about problems at this level before. When he thought about it carefully, there were indeed many problems.

If it is "ascension," what standard of ascension is reached? Is it isolated from the world after ascension?

If the two worlds are isolated, how did Mohe and this ancient corpse come here?

The ancient corpse was only Huiyang, which is super-grade level, before he died. Could he ascend? Why can't the super-grade National Teacher and Emperor ascend?

In addition, this ancient corpse also had a group of subordinates who were killed by the array. Does the level of those subordinates also count as ascenders?

Isn't Mohe still refining the Nine-Turn Golden Pill that can make people become immortals, which shows that he hasn't ascended either... Is there another world?

If the two worlds are not isolated, why is there no news of them in the world, and what does this world count as in their perspective?

The Great Qian in a box? A world in a painting?

Medicinal materials in an alchemy furnace?

"Is your alchemy notebook from here?" Ye Tinglan suddenly asked.

Lu Xingzhou came back to his senses and nodded. "Yes."

"Besides the alchemy notebook, are there any other records?"

"No, my cultivation technique is from here." Lu Xingzhou sighed. "As a temporary residence, what is written in the notebook is just what one focuses on at the time. Who writes a diary when they have nothing to do?"

Ye Tinglan also searched around again, and there was indeed nothing. She was a little disappointed and walked out of the cave.

Outside was a wilderness like the embers of a raging fire, as if a mountain col separated water and fire.

In the middle of the wilderness were the huge dragon and tiger skeletons. Ye Tinglan stood in front of the skeletons and stroked them for a moment, then said in a low voice, "This kind of creature exists in the world."

Lu Xingzhou was stunned. "I haven't seen it. In various ruins?"

Ye Tinglan smiled. "There are also living ones."

Lu Xingzhou's heart moved. "Demon race."

Ye Tinglan nodded approvingly. "The current Demon Emperor is a female dragon."

Lu Xingzhou: "... ou don't have to emphasize that she is female."

"I just think you would be interested." Ye Tinglan looked at the skeletons in a daze and said in a low voice, "Besides the demon race, some immortal mountains overseas should also exist. Places where humans and the demon race live together exist, each dividing their own spheres of influence, just like sects standing in great numbers. It's just that they are far away from us, and we rarely come into contact with that kind of customs."

"Then couldn't Mohe and the ancient corpse have come from there?"

"Of course it's possible... but those places are themselves a kind of ancient world, and there are world membranes." Ye Tinglan said, "Otherwise, it would be difficult for the world to live in peace."

Lu Xingzhou nodded. Mohe and these people are obviously strong. If those places generally have this level, there would basically be no soil for ordinary mortals to survive, and it would be another form of pure immortal cultivation society. It's no problem to say it's another world. Is the so-called isolation perhaps to protect mortals?

Ye Tinglan said, "These things are very far away from ordinary people, and normally they won't come into contact with them in their lifetime. But you came into contact with them when you were in the lower three realms, which can be considered a strange fate... If the original owner of this place is not dead, you will still have intersections."

Lu Xingzhou said, "In fact, even without this place, I would have come into contact with it soon, right?"

Ye Tinglan turned to look at him.

Lu Xingzhou continued: "The place where Master wants to take me for a trial is mostly this kind of ruin."

Ye Tinglan smiled. "That won't be so peaceful."

She paused and shifted the topic: "Although these dragon and tiger skeletons are useless now, you can also carry some on your body. Not to mention that they belong to a kind of medicinal material, if you encounter similar things in the future, their skeletons may also create some bloodline attraction, and at worst, they can also be used for witchcraft."

Lu Xingzhou took a leg bone of each and carried them on his body.

Ye Tinglan looked around, her eyes sweeping over the spirit stone vein, as if she didn't see it at all, and she was quite disappointed. "This place is just a treasure land for cultivation, and the grade is unexpectedly high, so it was occupied and used by that Mohe. It is not a place where ancient secrets are buried."

"Just a treasure land for cultivation." Lu Xingzhou was dumbfounded when he heard this. How much do you look down on a treasure land for cultivation? That is a place where people fight to the death, okay? Even super-grades occupy it to do things, and you are still disappointed.

After thinking about it, he asked carefully: "Does Master know a way... um, the kind that works on Feng Shui to strengthen the earth vein's luck? It's useless to do it in ordinary places, but this kind of Feng Shui earth vein should be okay, right?"

Ye Tinglan glanced at him and laughed. "However, there is no need to do anything else here. This dragon and tiger embracing is a natural Feng Shui formation. Holding it firmly is more important than anything else."

After finishing, she sneered: "Changing Feng Shui and earth veins is an act of going against the heavens and changing fate. Mohe's failure in his actions has a direct causal relationship with suffering a serious backlash from this act. Do you want my life for Shen Tang?"

"I didn't know it was that serious." Lu Xingzhou smiled apologetically. "Put that way, is there really such a method?"

"Yes."

"Then can you teach me?"

Ye Tinglan wondered: "You know that this requires a huge price, and you still want to learn? Shen Tang's current aura is already very strong, so there is no need for this."

"It's just that having more skills doesn't weigh you down, and it's better to be prepared." Lu Xingzhou blinked. "Why must you think it's for Tangtang? Maybe one day, it will be for Master."

Ye Tinglan looked at him in amazement for a long time, then suddenly laughed. "In theory, I only teach you alchemy... But come to think of it, I taught you the bone penetration method before, so it's not bad to teach you something else... If you have the ability, use it."

Lu Xingzhou bowed deeply. "Thank you, Master."

Shen Tang was restless in the room, getting up and pacing back and forth.

Anuo sat cross-legged in the corner, her little head turning back and forth following her figure.

Shen Tang finally reached out and pinched her cheek. "You said your Master has nothing to do with this Master?"

Anuo's voice was distorted. "For now, it really has nothing to do with her." It's just that this Master looks like Sister Yu, what Master thinks in his heart, and whether there will be a relationship later, no one knows...

"Nothing to do with her, yet he is willing to take her to the secret realm, and they went alone for so long! A lone man and a woman hiding down there for so long, they could have had a baby by now!"

Anuo looked at her sideways.

"What kind of look is that? I am thinking for you!" Shen Tang was serious. "If he gives you a younger brother or sister, you won't be so favored!"

Anuo almost laughed out loud. "Master's wife, don't you want to give me a younger brother or sister?"

"I..." Shen Tang gritted her teeth. "At least I won't be that fast!"

Anuo smiled and buried her head in her chest to rub. "Good, good, good Master's wife."

"Since you know I am good, help me keep an eye on the vixen." Shen Tang instigated. "If you see them doing anything over the line later, destroy it, you know?"

Anuo said, "Master's wife, aren't you quite broad-minded? One moment you agree with Sister White Hair, and the next moment you agree with Sister Yao..."

"That's because there is no other way. If your Master really likes them... besides, they can also help your Master."

"But Master Ye is a First Realm, she can help even more."

Shen Tang's eyes went straight, and she had nothing to say. After a long while, she squeezed out a sentence: "But she is also your Master's Master. How can a Master and disciple be together?"

"She doesn't count as a Master." Anuo said. "Master said this is called a tutor at most, it has more flavor... uh..."

Anuo quickly covered her little mouth, her eyes rolling around.

Shen Tang gritted her teeth. "Good, have you already been tempted by beauty?"

"No, no." Anuo smiled apologetically. "Anyway, no matter what, Anuo only has you as a Master's wife."

Shen Tang beamed with joy, picked up Anuo and kissed her. "What do you want to eat? Say it, Master's wife will buy it for you."

These women are too easy to fool, not as good as children. Anuo sighed with vicissitudes.

"Sect Master." Shen Qi's shadow appeared behind her. "Shi Tielong has sent an envoy to the capital, mostly to seek support from the Prince of Jin or the Huo family."

"He doesn't understand. The more public this competitive measure is, the more difficult it is for the Prince of Jin and the Huo family to act rashly. At most, they will secretly send one or two experts to help him... What about the others?"

"Shi Zhong has already arrived in East River with his followers to support Shi Tielong."

"How can he support him?" Shen Tang showed a mocking smile. "Can he make other people's goods not give to us, but only to the East River Gang?"

Shen Qi said, "I'm afraid he really can."

"That can only affect the area around East River County. Now the core is in Xiazhou. Even the East River Gang itself is going to move to Xiazhou, so what's the use of tossing around in East River County."

"With Shi Zhong's arrival, the East River Gang should also be coming over soon."

Shen Tang smiled slightly. "Guests from afar. Go and have people wait at the main road. When Gang Leader Shi comes, tell them that I, Shen Tang, am hosting a welcome banquet for them at Songfeng Tower in Xiazhou."

Shen Qi looked at Shen Tang deeply. As long as Lu Xingzhou is not around, the Princess really has the demeanor of a lord of one side, and her initiative and aggressiveness are very strong.

But as long as Lu Xingzhou appears, she is like a different person.

Shen Qi thought for a while. "Hosting a banquet outside, you must guard against sudden changes during the banquet. Shi Zhong is a Second Realm after all, and his strength exceeds all of us."

"It doesn't matter. At that time, the Commandery Governor will also attend to mediate the business conflict in the commandery. Harmony brings wealth." Shen Tang smiled, revealing neat white teeth. Shen Qi felt a bit familiar looking at it, turned his head to look, and Anuo had the same expression on her face, as if it were copied.

"Sect Master, Sect Master!" Tang Yunzhong ran in hurriedly from outside. "Our first batch of goods left Xiazhou, and sure enough, they were robbed by masked men in the suburbs."

Shen Tang smiled. "How is it?"

"Commander Wan of the Demon Suppression Division was lying in wait and caught all the invaders. After bringing them back for interrogation, they were all from the Cangshan Sword Sect."

"This is the home field. They still don't understand... A big gift delivered to our door, wouldn't it be a waste of this intention if we didn't find the Cangshan Sword Sect for a return visit?" Shen Tang put down Anuo. "Go and call your Master out to work, don't squat there and be lovey-dovey with his private tutor anymore."

Before the words fell, Lu Xingzhou appeared outside the door. "Hey, I really went to do serious business!"

Ye Tinglan stood there expressionlessly, staring at Shen Tang, not knowing how to spit out a stomach full of old complaints.

What are you staring at me for? What does it have to do with me?

I am planning to help you get to the top, and you are treating me as a mistress?
