Chapter 103: Pei Zhi

BOOM!!!

This thunderbolt was extremely fierce. Before Chen Hang could react, the Talisman Ancestor, who only had a head left, had been easily torn to pieces!

And in the blink of an eye, the vast Water Moon Mirror Heaven was also blown into flying ash in this muffled sound!

Ten thousand hectares of blue waves surged against the sky, exploding and spinning. Water columns shot out like arrows, dancing wildly like dragons and snakes, and then exploded in mid-air, rumbling endlessly and spreading in all directions!

In this giant shock that seemed to turn the world upside down, Chen Hang was instantly rolled into the water waves. He couldn't make any response, and in just a moment, he was about to be forcibly knocked out of this Water Moon Mirror Heaven.

And just as his spiritual sense was about to be forced back into his physical body in the present world.

Crack! With a wild roar from the Talisman Ancestor that sounded from nowhere, this Water Moon world, which was already full of cracks, was arduously stabilized!

"Innate... Chen..."

The next moment, it was the Talisman Ancestor's vague voice.

"Ba She... Chiming Sect... Wen Jitian..."

"Go to Yulu Immortal Mansion, defect to Chen Runzi and Chen Yu-ji, they and Kongkong Daoist—"

Stumbling and stumbling, before he could hear a few words, the Talisman Ancestor's voice dropped.

Afterwards, in a long period of forest silence.

The Water Moon world that had just been arduously stabilized collapsed again, as if it were about to leak into countless gorgeous colorful smoke lights.

And Chen Hang's consciousness was also uncertain, as if it had been split into two.

At times, he was a group of bright light, still staying in this Water Moon Mirror Heaven that was on the verge of collapse, with surging water waves under his feet.

At other times, he suddenly returned to the present world, bound in the big cocoon transformed by the Evil-Resentment Yin-Victory Demon's supernatural power, unable to escape...

During this back-and-forth intersection, although the Talisman Ancestor's voice sounded arduously again, this time, it was just sporadic words, intermittent, and could not be connected into text.

And in the continuous explosions, the Water Moon Mirror Heaven finally collapsed, and with another fierce thunder roar, it completely shattered.

Wind and clouds vanished, lake and moon collapsed!

"Pei Zhi! I won't be finished with you after I return to the mountain!"

"Tai Su Jade Body—"

When Chen Hang's consciousness was expelled back to his physical body in the present world, the Talisman Ancestor shouted hoarsely, trying his best to convey the last sentence:

"Use the spiritual qi on your Tai Su Jade Body first! Remember! Do not easily build—"

Then even this sentence could not be finished, the Talisman Ancestor's voice stopped abruptly again, and there was no sound. Chen Hang sighed silently in his heart, and in an instant, another long feeling of weightlessness and falling struck.

His eyes were dim, and he could no longer see things.

When he opened his eyes again, there was no lake, moon, smoke, or clouds in front of him.

He was still trapped in the palace on Floating Jade Lake, being treated as a container for the body by Cave Master Huaiwu and the Evil-Resentment Yin-Victory Demon for reincarnation.

"Ancestor?"

Chen Hang asked via voice transmission.

And this time, no one answered.

He waited for a few breaths, and there was only emptiness in his ears.

"Improve the cultivation of the Tai Su Jade Body—"

Chen Hang lowered his eyelids, his gaze moving slightly:

"The rest of the sentence... is it telling me not to easily build the foundation?"

"Pei Zhi! Pei Zhi! You broken girl, you are dead for sure! After I return to Yangrang Mountain, I will personally go to the Dao Lord to complain, and complain about you severely!"

"The Dao Lord is still visiting friends in Ranluo Gongshou Heaven, I fear the Ancestor will not be able to see her dignity."

At this moment.

Above the sea of clouds ten thousand zhang high over Floating Jade Lake, the Talisman Ancestor, who only had half a head left, could not help but curse wildly. If it weren't for the fact that he only had half a head left, he would have wanted to clench his fists and beat her hard.

In front of the Talisman Ancestor's sight was a beautiful woman with a flying immortal bun and a tall figure. She was extremely beautiful and cold, indescribable.

Her shoulders were like they were carved, her waist was like a tied silk. Her neck was slender, her white quality was exposed, she was wearing a deep green Langxiao feather garment, with a precious sun hairpin inserted horizontally. Her five features were like fine brushwork, her eyes were like autumn water, and she was emitting purple, green, yellow, and white light, ethereal and sacred, deep and difficult to name.

Hearing this indifferent sentence from the woman, the Talisman Ancestor became even more anxious. Although he only had half a head left, he still felt as if a heart was thumping wildly, about to jump out of his throat.

"When did you follow me, you dead girl? Why don't you cultivate the Three Treasures in the cave heaven properly, and come out to go crazy?!"

He gritted his teeth and shouted:

"Dead girl, you scared me to death! The Ancestor thought it was that guy Chen Yushu who calculated some clues with Central Heaven Dou Calculation and killed me from afar!"

"That person is now trapped in the Innate Demon Sect's cave heaven, unable to take half a step out, hated by Heaven, and blocked by the Pure Yang Tribulation. Even if he has great supernatural powers, he cannot calculate your painstaking layout accurately."

Pei Zhi's voice was cold and indifferent:

"Unless Chen Yushu can leave the cave heaven, that might be possible, but in his current pitiful situation, the power of Central Heaven Dou Calculation will also be greatly reduced. What the Ancestor said is a delusion."

"... That's good, you scared me to death. The Ancestor really thought Chen Yushu was going crazy just now."

The Talisman Ancestor was stunned at first, then became furious:

"No! Who wants to argue with you about Chen Yushu? I'm asking you, why don't you cultivate the Three Treasures properly in the cave heaven, and run to Floating Jade Lake to do what?! Are you bored?"

"Naturally for the Ancestor."

"Me?"

"Chen Yushu's momentum has already matched the flourishing qi number of the Six Demonic Sects, and it is unstoppable. Even the Eight Xuan Sects cannot stop it. In the future, the Qianyuan Sichen Palace will definitely have a place for this person."

Pei Zhi was expressionless and said:

"It is beyond doubt that he has achieved the Union with Dao Realm, it's just a matter of time. Does the Ancestor really want to provoke this enemy for my Tai Talisman Palace because of a little compassion?"

"How can it be so... how can it be so? You girl just loves to make a mountain out of a molehill."

The Talisman Ancestor's fierce momentum extinguished instantly, as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his face.

He awkwardly lowered his eyebrows, and after a long while, he gave a dry laugh and said:

"Chen Yushu has given birth to so many offspring, a mere Chen Hang, what does it count for? It's insignificant, insignificant! Even if he escapes, I think it doesn't matter. What are you worried about?"

After speaking, the Talisman Ancestor seemed to feel that this language was reasonable and appropriate, and his confidence was much fuller.

He blinked his eyes and tested again:

"How about I continue to transmit sound to that kid and finish what I haven't said?"

"Don't those bald dogs of the Buddhist Sect always say that saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda? Why doesn't the Fuchan Laozu accumulate some merit, and you, little girl, follow along to get a share?"

"Why is the Fuchan Laozu so insistent on saving him?" Pei Zhi asked.

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can remained silent for a long while, and just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Pei Zhi again.

"Is it because of Chen Yan? Does the Fuchan Laozu feel that it was your own fault that Chen Yan lost her life, so you feel a sense of pity for Chen Hang, who is in the same situation as Chen Yan, and want to make up for it through him?"

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can rolled his eyes and said nothing.

"So, how does the Fuchan Laozu intend to teach this Chen Hang so that he can escape with his life?"

A moment later, Pei Zhi suddenly smiled faintly.

"You agreed? Really?"

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can, who had already given up hope, suddenly felt a surge of spirit.

He scrutinized Pei Zhi carefully, grinned, and then beamed with joy.

"The best method is to join the Chiming Sect! You don't know, this kid has already gotten close to a true disciple of the Chiming Sect. With the protection of the Chiming Sect, even if he, Chen Yushu, has heaven-defying divine powers, he will be helpless and have to give up his intentions! How about it? This can be considered a path to survival, right?"

"A true disciple of the Chiming Sect, which one?"

"Wei Lingjiang!"

Pei Zhi pondered for a while, a cold smile slowly appearing at the corners of her mouth, and a look of mockery appeared on her bright and stunning face.

"Wei Lingjiang, so it's that one from the Wei family. Does she not want to avenge her own biological father anymore? To actually be here talking about love, she's truly stupid enough.

The Daoist Lord even said that her future cultivation could stand shoulder to shoulder with mine. Now it seems she is just a fool obsessed with the petty path of love. How is she worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as me, Pei Zhi!"

"The two of them are being sweet and loving, what does it have to do with you, you dead girl? Even this has to be mocked a couple of times?"

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can laughed bitterly: "That mouth of yours, it's still just as unforgiving!"

"The Fuchan Laozu says going to the Chiming Sect is the best strategy, but in my view, I'm afraid it's the worst. Even if that Wei Lingjiang is a true disciple of the Chiming Sect, she is not a Daoist of the sect. I'm afraid the several Daoist Lords of the Chiming Sect won't waste this much effort for her for no reason."

Pei Zhi ignored Fuchan Laozu Fu Can, her dark eyebrows slightly raised, and she said:

"What else?"

"The other way is to search for the Yulu Immortal Mansion and defect to Chen Runzi and Chen Yuanji. These two are his brothers, and they will pull him along to some extent. Chen Yushu's true body is currently trapped and unable to reach him, so presumably, he can't do anything about it either..."

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can spread his hands and laughed loudly:

"There are always more ways than one thinks. As long as the Fuchan Laozu tells him the truth about his life experience and gives him a few pointers, escaping for a lifetime is probably impossible, but if it's just to escape for a while, that's not difficult!"

"How so?"

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can tentatively asked: "These are all good plans, can the Fuchan Laozu transmit his voice to him now?"

Seeing Pei Zhi's eyelids slightly lowered, with a vague look of a smile that was not a smile, she did not answer directly.

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can's brain struggled to turn several times, but he couldn't figure out whether she wanted to agree or refuse.

After struggling in his heart for a long time, suddenly, as if he had guessed some possibility, Fuchan Laozu Fu Can hesitantly raised his head, his face complex.

"This isn't good, is it?" He lowered his voice and spoke.

Pei Zhi was confused.

"You wouldn't happen to have taken a fancy to Chen Hang, would you? Not letting the Fuchan Laozu speak, is it because you deliberately want to save him yourself? To make him remember you deeply in his heart? This... isn't good, is it?

It's clear that Wei Lingjiang came first. Girl, you are forcibly taking someone else's love like this. If it spreads out, I'm afraid it won't be a good story."

The more Fuchan Laozu Fu Can spoke, the more fluent he became, and the more he felt it made sense, that he had guessed the truth.

Even his remaining half of a head instantly became radiant, his spirit greatly boosted.

If she didn't harbor such thoughts.

Why would she, Pei Zhi, run from Yangrang Mountain to this Daojun Fu Yu Lake territory?

And coming here is one thing, why did she choose to issue the thunder technique to destroy the Water-Moon Mirror Heaven he had set up just when he was about to clarify the truth?

If one says the first two were both acting impartially, it is understandable...

But now that it's all over, why does she, Pei Zhi, still linger in this Daojun Fu Yu Lake, listening to how he intends to save Chen Hang?

All these actions added together, there must be something fishy!

"You—"

"What is the Fuchan Laozu going crazy about again?"

Before Fuchan Laozu Fu Can could finish enjoying himself, Pei Zhi glanced at him strangely:

"Am I very familiar with that Chen Hang you mentioned? We haven't even truly met yet, how can you conclude that I harbor feelings for him? This is too absurd!"

"Then you—"

"Stopping you from speaking out his life experience was Elder Wei's intention. It just so happens I'm very free, so I specifically rushed over to watch the fun."

Pei Zhi's voice remained cold and indifferent, but the corners of her lips curled up imperceptibly, setting off her deep and beautiful appearance, giving people an indescribable moving posture for no reason:

"As for why I specifically chose the time when the Fuchan Laozu was about to speak to destroy your Water-Moon Mirror Heaven, and why I haven't left yet, and want to listen to the Fuchan Laozu's trivial nonsense."

She finally covered her mouth and laughed, speaking slowly and methodically:

"Why doesn't the Fuchan Laozu take a guess?"

"What do you mean?" Fuchan Laozu Fu Can felt a sense of unease rise in his heart for no reason.

"... Wait! You wouldn't be deliberately wanting to watch me make a fool of myself, would you?!"

His face stiffened suddenly, and he finally guessed the fact.

"Not bad."

Pei Zhi said with a smile.

"I thought you were really going to show mercy and let me save Chen Hang once! How did you, girl, become just like me, a ghost, so fond of watching the fun!"

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can stared and shouted: "What are you after? What on earth are you going crazy about?!"

"Then what were you after back then when you tricked me into eating mud for a month, saying that as long as I ate it with every meal, I could ascend to immortality? And what were you going crazy about then?"

Pei Zhi's expression remained unchanged, and she smiled slightly:

"Of course, my Tai Fu Palace has always ignored external affairs. As for what happens to Chen Hang's life or death, the Fuchan Laozu should worry less and stop doing useless work."

"You—"

Fuchan Laozu Fu Can became anxious.

He still wanted to argue about something, but at this moment, Pei Zhi, having watched the fun, was already satisfied. She launched a talisman light out of thin air and flew away into the distance, disappearing in an instant.

And beneath the ten-thousand-foot clouds.

Inside the palace of Daojun Fu Yu Lake.

That Evil-Resentment Yin-Victory Demon also finally sensed something was wrong. After a scream, it transformed into a vague and ghostly demonic shadow and detached from Chen Hang's body, hovering in mid-air, suspicious and uncertain.

"Liu Niang, what's wrong?"

Cave Master Huaiwu on the Dharma altar frowned: "Is there anything wrong?"

"This person... this person's true qi is not as inferior as you said! And, it seems there is some method hidden in his body that has dissolved all my demonic qi!"

The Evil-Resentment Yin-Victory Demon suppressed the fear in its heart, raised its hand, and struck out a crimson evil light, but the moment it hit Chen Hang's face, it was steadily blocked by a thin golden light, emitting a muffled sound like a bell or chime.

"This is... the Jin Guang Divine Talisman?!"

Seeing this scene, the Evil-Resentment Yin-Victory Demon finally lost its composure completely. The demonic shadow darted away and hid behind the Dharma altar, trembling with fear.

"Ai Yuan! This must be someone from the Ai family, here to do things for Ai Yuan. Think of a way, you hurry and think of a way, I can't die here!"

Hearing the shrill wailing behind him, Cave Master Huaiwu's face sank, and he was also somewhat out of composure.

He hurriedly reached into his sleeve to take something out, but just as he was about to act, his ears suddenly pricked up, as if he had heard some movement.

"This is?"

Cave Master Huaiwu looked up at the sky in the southeast corner, his heart panicked:

"What kind of movement is this again?"
