Chapter 1653: Tragic Fate
The two of them took Xiao Lin and landed at the gate of the city. Fairy City, as its name suggests, the surrounding city walls are made of snow-white rocks, which looks very elegant.
There were four guards at the city gate, wearing magical weapons and armor, with scimitars hanging from their waists. When they saw Xiao Lin and the other three, they all showed envious eyes.
Xiao Lin was surprised when he saw these four guards. It turned out that these four guards were all in the Yuanying stage. It was the first time in his life that Xiao Lin saw Yuanying stage monks serving as city guards.
You know, even in the spirit world, Yuanying stage monks are usually at least the head of a family, or an ancestor. It is really strange to guard the city gate like this.
Huang Cui and Huang Jing, without even looking at the four guards, took the lead and walked towards the city. Upon seeing this, Xiao Lin could only follow closely.
As soon as he entered the city, Xiao Lin saw that the shops and people walking on both sides of the streets were all extremely ugly. Compared to Huang Cui and Huang Jing, they were completely different.
Even those who look normal have pockmarked faces, most of them have crooked faces, cracked mouths and slanted eyes.
Even though Xiao Lin was well-informed, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide at this moment, his heart full of confusion.
Seeing Xiao Lin's expression, Huang Cui didn't know what he was thinking, so he explained with a smile: "Except for the few of us who have truly inherited the bloodline of the Immortal Relic Clan, among the many Holy Spirits in our Snow World, the rest are They are all cursed people. They cannot practice superior immortal magic, so they can only do some menial labor and collect various precious things from the snow world to support us, so we gave them a place to live. We, the orthodox Immortal Relics, call them Immortal Slaves.”
"Immortal slaves?" Xiao Lin couldn't help but glance at Huang Cui, who was full of pride, but secretly felt sorry for these poor immortal slaves in his heart.
All creatures in the world, including intelligent people, should have the right to survive, and should not be suppressed or even treated as slaves. Unfortunately, this time, there are always one or another reasons, resulting in many races being born as slaves and living miserable lives.
On the streets, a very small number of Immortal Relic tribe members would not even look at the Immortal slaves when walking. On the contrary, when those Immortal relic tribe members saw the Immortal Relic tribe members, they all trembled and hid aside and moved out of the way.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, please come with us."
Following the two of them, they passed through several streets and came to a mansion. This mansion had a high gate and a large courtyard. It was very grand. At first glance, it didn't look like it was lived by an immortal person, but instead it looked like a common squire. residence.
When he came to the door, Huang Cui pinched the spirit secret, obviously to notify the people inside the mansion.
After a while, the door of the mansion opened, and a man in his thirties walked out. The man was dressed in a coarse linen gray robe. At first glance, he looked like a butler, but his state was in the proper integration stage. He saw Huang Cui He and Huang Jing immediately bowed and said, "It turns out they are two patrol guards. The elder is currently in the main hall. Please come in."
After saying that, he stepped aside and glanced at Xiao Lin inadvertently.
Xiao Lin also noticed this person's expression, and his heart moved slightly.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, please come in."
Xiao Lin nodded and walked inside with Huang Cui and Huang Jing. They obviously came here often and were very familiar with the path. They led Xiao Lin through the courtyard and came to a main hall in the backyard.
Xiao Lin looked through the open hall door and saw at a glance an old man with a white beard sitting on the main seat of the hall.
The white-bearded old man was wearing a splendid silver robe, his face was as rosy as a three-year-old baby, and his eyes were opening and closing with a divine light.
Xiao Lin felt an aura from this person that made him very depressed.
"Mahayana monk?" Xiao Lin was shocked. He did not expect that an elder in this snow world was actually a cultivator in the Mahayana realm. I really don't know how terrifying the strongest person in this snow world would be. kind of degree.
"Junior Xiao Lin, I have met my senior." When he came to the old man, Xiao Lin saluted and said.
"Little friend Xiao, Cui'er has mentioned to me before that my little friend came to this snow world by chance. The snow world is a place outside the world. Although it is in the spiritual world, it has never been in contact with the outside world. Today, countless years have passed. Could it be that my friend got the map left by Gu Tianci and found this place? "
When Xiao Lin heard this, he was immediately surprised. The Gu Tianci the old man mentioned was none other than Fairy Tianci, the founder of the Beihan Divine Sect.
The Northern Han Shen Sect has been established for at least hundreds of thousands of years. The old man guessed why he came here as soon as he opened his mouth. It is conceivable that the old man should know Fairy Tianci, or at least be very familiar with the origin of Fairy Tianci. .
Xiao Lin shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know Gu Tianci, but I got a map by chance. It was through this map that I found the entrance to this place."
Xiao Lin's words were half truth and half false. Before he knew whether the old man was an enemy or a friend, he didn't want to tell him how he got this map. If he had a deep grudge with Fairy Tianci, wouldn't he be harmed? Northern Han Shen Sect.
"My little friend has amazing magical powers. The spiritual beast guarding the entrance to the snow world is called the Snow Mane Cold Light Beast. It was born from the union of a ferocious beast and a fairy spirit. The cold light of the snowy world has even more powerful magical powers. It shows that I can defeat it. The magical power is so powerful.”
"What? Fellow Daoist Xiao defeated the Snowmane Cold Light Beast?" After hearing this, both Huang Cui and Huang Jing showed horrified expressions.
The Snow Mane Cold Light Beast is the spirit beast of their Immortal Relics, guarding the entrance to the Snow World. Even the Mahayana cultivators dare not try its Snow Region Cold Light easily. For countless years, the person in front of him is not the first to challenge the Snow Mane Cold Light Beast, but he is the first to defeat it and enter the Snow World.
Even Gu Tianci was brought into the Snow World by the Immortal Relics after he was injured.
"My friend, you came to the Snow World, presumably not to visit the beautiful scenery here? But I don't know what it means?" The old man looked at Xiao Lin and asked directly.
The old man asked so directly that Xiao Lin didn't know how to answer for a while.
After all, he still didn't know the origin of this Immortal Relics, and whether he was an enemy or a friend to him. If he was a friend, it would be fine. If he was an enemy, once he told his purpose, wouldn't it be a trap? If it brought disaster to Mitian Palace, then he would have done a bad thing with good intentions.
"I just accidentally entered this place. Although I know the entrance here through the map, I don't know that this is the Snow World, and I have never heard of the Immortals."
"Are you serious? You can't lie to me, otherwise the consequences will be very serious." The old man asked with a serious face.
"Everything I said is true."
The old man's face eased a little, nodded and said: "It seems that Gu Tianci did not spread what he saw and heard, so it is not considered a breach of promise."
After speaking, the old man looked at Xiao Lin and asked: "In this case, you can travel in our Snow World. As long as you don't violate the rules of the Snow World, no one will restrict you."
After the old man finished speaking, he waved his hand without waiting for Xiao Lin to answer.
Huang Cui understood and said to Xiao Lin: "Daoyou Xiao, let's go. I will tell you the rules of our snow world later. As long as Daoyou can keep your promise, you can choose to leave here like Gu Tianci did back then."
Taking Xiao Lin, the three of them left the mansion soon. After leaving the mansion, Huang Jing found a reason and turned around and left, leaving only Huang Cui and Xiao Lin.
The two came to a teahouse and sat down in a secluded place.
"Daoyou Huang, are you and Daoyou Huang Jing a pair of immortal lovers?" Xiao Lin drank a cup of tea. The tea here is not made from spiritual flowers and herbs. Although it has no spiritual energy, it also has a sense of transcendence and spirituality, which makes Xiao Lin unable to help but drink a few more sips. After putting down the teacup, Xiao Lin looked at Huang Cui and asked with a smile.
Huang Cui's pretty face changed slightly when she heard this, and she said angrily: "Does Daoist Xiao like to matchmake for others after practicing?"
Huang Cui's impolite answer made Xiao Lin a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that Huang Cui seemed to have such a big opinion on the handsome Huang Jing. His joke actually caused such a big reaction from the other party.
"Daoist Huang, Xiao made a mistake and apologized to you here." Xiao Lin bowed his hands and said sincerely.
Hearing this, Huang Cui's expression eased a little, and she said, "Ignorance is not a crime. Fellow Daoist Xiao did it unintentionally. On the contrary, I was a little too aggressive."
"Fellow Daoist Huang, I also accidentally entered this magical place. I really didn't expect that there would be such a paradise-like place underground in the extreme cold land of the spiritual world. It is really amazing. But I am a little curious. How was this snow world formed? And you are the descendants of the immortals, are you really the descendants of the immortals?"
As if to ease the embarrassment in front of him, or maybe Xiao Lin was full of curiosity about this place, he couldn't help but change the topic and ask.
"We, the descendants of the immortals, are indeed the descendants of the immortals. This matter has to start from a catastrophe in ancient times." As she said, Huang Cui began to narrate to Xiao Lin.
It turns out that the Immortal Relics are indeed the descendants of the immortals in the upper realm, but they are not born by the immortals. The immortal cultivators cultivate the immortal way in order to become immortals and live forever one day, which is against the will of heaven. Therefore, after obtaining a long life span, the immortal cultivators will inevitably lose a lot, that is, reproduction.
This does not mean that immortals or immortal cultivators do not have the ability to reproduce, but that the higher the realm of the immortal cultivator, the lower the probability of giving birth to offspring.
Of course, if the immortal cultivators do nothing and give birth to children every day, they will definitely be able to give birth to offspring. After all, the success rate can also be compensated by the number of times, but in fact, the immortal cultivators spend most of their time on cultivation. How can they not do their job and learn from ordinary people to pursue that little desire all day long?
The so-called Immortal Relics are not born by the immortals in the lower realm, but the immortal mortals brought down from the immortal world by the immortals.
Whether it is the mortal world, the spiritual world, or even the fairy world, there are a large number of mortals, the so-called natives. The fairy world is the same. Huang Cui and his ancestors were brought down from the fairy world by the fairies. The original intention was to serve the fairies, but they never thought that the fairies disappeared without a trace. They, the descendants of the fairies, have been multiplying in this snowy world from generation to generation.
However, during the reproduction process, a problem arose. Perhaps it was because of the unfamiliar climate and soil. When the descendants of the fairies were born, they were all beautiful and lovely, whether boys or girls.
But when they are eighteen years old, there will be a catastrophe. They will become very scary overnight. No matter men or women, they cannot escape it. It is like fate. Some people will have pockmarks on their faces, and some will even have crooked mouths and squinting eyes. The most terrifying thing is that some people will directly fester all over their bodies and die, and their deaths are very miserable.
Hearing this, Xiao Lin was also very surprised, and at the same time, he began to sympathize with these immortal descendants.
The so-called immortal elects came to the spirit world and faced them not with superior endowments, but with hell.
Looking at Huang Cui, Xiao Lin suddenly had an idea: "Huang Daoyou, why do you and Huang Jing seem to have not suffered the fate of the immortal descendants? Are you not from the immortal descendants?"
Huang Cui shook her head, but her eyes revealed endless resentment and sadness.
"That's because my mother is one of the 72 maids of the Snow Lord. With my mother's identity, I was able to get a Xiyuan Pill. Only after taking the Xiyuan Pill can I escape the disaster of eighteen years old."
"So that's it. Then is this Snow Lord the real master of this snow world? The elder just now?"
"Shh~~"
Huang Cui's pretty face changed drastically when she heard it. She quickly made a gesture of silence, and then whispered: "Snow Lord, it is a taboo in our Snow World and cannot be mentioned. The elder just now is also surnamed Huang and named Feng. They are the two powerful men under the Snow Lord. They are both in the realm of Mahayana. Usually, all the big and small affairs in the Snow World are basically handled by Elder Huang Feng."
Xiao Lin nodded and did not ask more questions. Although he was full of curiosity about the Snow Lord, since Huang Cui said that this person was a taboo in the Snow World, he and Huang Cui also met for the first time. Asking too much would arouse her suspicion.
"Since this Xiyuan Pill can save you, the Immortal Legacy people, from the calamity of eighteen years old, why don't you give one pill to all the members of the tribe to save them from this endless pain? And I observed that those Immortal Legacy people with ugly appearances generally have lower realms. Could it be related to this Xiyuan Pill?"
"That's not the case. After years of research, we gradually understand that the reason why we, the Immortal Legacy people, have this calamity is because of our identity as Immortal Legacy people."
"The identity of the Immortal Legacy people?"
Nodding, Huang Cui said somewhat sadly: "Speaking of which, it was also the sin of the immortal who brought our ancestors to the lower world. He didn't expect that even mortals in the immortal world would not be able to adapt to the climate once they entered the lower world."
