Although monks in the transformation stage have a lifespan limit, their physical bodies have stopped aging. Even if another thousand years pass, their appearance will not change at all.
Moreover, it will not have any impact on future attacks on the Void Refining Stage.
However, a thousand years is too long. Thinking about spending a thousand years in this dark world, the four of them felt extremely heavy.
The one who was in the worst mood was Yuyao. She couldn't wait to leave the Goddess Tomb and regain her appearance.
Now that she has to be trapped here for a thousand years, Yuyao feels extremely painful.
"That's all." Xie Ying closed his eyes.
"Amitabha." Shenxiu clasped his hands together and seemed to have accepted his fate.
Shen Lang felt a sense of guilt in his heart and said loudly: "I must apologize to everyone. If Shen hadn't disturbed the rest of the Goddess of Styx, you wouldn't be in this situation."
Shenxiu said sternly: "Young master Shen, you don't have to be like this. Fortune has its way with people. I can't blame you for this. On the contrary, you saved our lives. It's too late for me to be grateful."
Although Yuyao felt extremely disappointed, she still shook her head and said: "The world is unpredictable. It is meaningless to say this. The fault is not yours."
"Xie has never been a blaming person." Xie Ying said coldly.
Seeing that none of the three people blamed himself, Shen Lang was quite moved and hugged his fists heavily: "Thank you three fellow Taoists!" The four of them were not in a good mood. After chatting for a while, they each began to meditate and rest.
Time passed day by day.
Shen Lang treats Yuyao's injuries and diseases every day, and nourishes her body with Shengyang's war energy.
It lasted for more than two months before Yuyao's originally weak body slowly recovered.
Perhaps because of the guilt in his heart, Shen Lang often sent messages to comfort Yuyao, and occasionally chatted with her to soothe her excessively sad mood.
In the past, Yuyao would definitely be taboo about chatting with a male monk she didn't know very well, but now she had nowhere to express the pain in her heart, and instead she was happy to talk to Shen Lang.
The relationship between the two has improved a lot and they are considered friends.
Through daily communication, Shen Lang can almost understand what kind of woman Yuyao is.
Completely different from Shen Lang's impression, Yuyao is a very simple-minded woman. Her parents have been extremely strict with her since she was a child. She has never had contact with other monks, and she doesn't even know what the world outside Nanyuan is like.
Chatting with Shen Lang like this was actually the first experience in her life.
In the blink of an eye, three months later.
Xieying and Shenxiu meditate with their eyes closed every day, but these two people can endure loneliness.
Yuyao's body also fully recovered after many days of treatment by Shen Lang.
On this day, Shen Lang finished the last treatment and said via voice transmission: "Miss Yuyao, the bloody spiritual power in your body has been completely eliminated, and there should be no hidden danger to the body."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Shen, for treating the little girl's injuries during this time, and also for enlightening the little girl. I am very grateful." Yuyao responded via voice transmission, stood up and bowed to Shen Lang.
"I'm just fulfilling my previous promise. Miss Yuyao doesn't need to thank me." Shen Lang shook his head.
Yuyao hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but speak through the voice: "Little lady... I have an unkind request."
"What request?" Shen Lang asked curiously. "Can you... accompany me for a walk?" Yuyao tried to keep herself calm, but there was still a hint of shyness in her tone.
Shen Lang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."
The two of them walked out of the palace gate.
The evil clouds in Blood Lotus Mountain had dissipated a month ago. There are no traces of evil spirits on the mountain, and there is basically no threat.
The two of them casually walked and chatted in Blood Lotus Mountain, and occasionally picked some natural and earthly treasures.
"Miss Yuyao asked Shen to come out. She must have something to say to me, right?" Shen Lang said seriously.
"Young Master Shen doesn't need to be so serious. The little girl just... has been depressed for a long time and wants to come out to relax and chat. Of course, if Young Master Shen dislikes the ugly appearance of the little girl under the mask, the little girl will not force it. Young Master can go back now." Yuyao said softly.
After what the other party said, Shen Lang had no reason to refuse, and said: "Miss Yuyao is serious, Shen Lang will not care about your appearance. Even if Miss Yuyao's appearance is really irrecoverable, I will... "
Before Shen Lang finished speaking, Yu Yao said with a smile but not a smile: "Mr. Shen, don't talk nonsense, I don't want to be an ugly monster!"
There was a hint of resentment in his tone. Yuyao felt that Shen Lang was just a piece of wood.
"Sorry, I said the wrong thing." Shen Lang scratched his head.
Yuyao shook her head slightly, and after walking for a while, she said quietly: "Actually, the little girl has never left Nanyuan, and is very curious about the world outside Nanyuan. The reason why I asked Mr. Shen to come out is because I want to hear about you, Mr. Shen. Of course, if Mr. Shen doesn’t want to mention it, just pretend that the young lady never said this.”
Shen Lang simply said: "Of course Shen can talk about the above. However, Shen is not an ancient spiritual monk, but an ascended monk from the lower world. He was born in a barren land. Is Miss Yuyao interested in hearing it?"
"Ascended monk? Okay, okay!" Yu Yao was very surprised. She didn't expect Shen Lang to be an ascended monk.
You must know that Shen Lang's bone age is only more than 300 years old. Looking at the human race in the ancient spiritual world, his talent may not be among the top.
But if it is an ascended monk, this kind of bone age is too incredible!
Shen Lang told Yu Yao eloquently about his important experiences since entering the world of cultivation.
Yuyao listened very carefully. Whenever she heard about the difficulties Shen Lang encountered, she would also become nervous. When Shen Lang talked about solving the difficulties or some happy things, Yuyao would also look very relaxed.
"Just listening to Mr. Shen's experience makes the little girl feel a new kind of novelty and excitement. It turns out that the outside world is so exciting and interesting." Yuyao let out a sigh of relief and felt much more relaxed.
"It's wonderful, but it's always dangerous." Shen Lang shook his head.
Yuyao nodded slightly, and after a while of silence, asked again: "Mr. Shen, you already have a wife, so you deliberately keep a distance from other women, right?"
Shen Lang didn't know why Yu Yao asked this, so he nodded and said, "Maybe so."
Before being disfigured, Yuyao was extremely confident in her appearance and felt that any male monk would be fascinated by her true appearance. Of course, except for monks and people with weird personalities.
Shen Lang is neither of these two categories, nor is he impressed by his appearance, and behaves like a humble gentleman.
As for blaspheming the Goddess of the River Styx, Yuyao had already determined that it was not Shen Lang's original intention.
In fact, Shen Lang like this has an inexplicable attraction for Yuyao. When she heard that Shen Lang had someone she loved, she felt a sense of jealousy in her heart.
Yuyao didn't care about this. Her father, the jade-faced boy, had more than thirty wives, and in the end he only stayed with her mother.
"Mr. Shen, thank you for accompanying me for a walk. We will be together for a long time in the future, so please give me your advice." Yuyao thanked me again.
"Please give me more advice." Shen Lang also responded politely.
The two returned to the black palace. Thinking of spending a thousand years here, Shen Lang still felt heavy.
In short, let’s break through to the peak of becoming a god first.
