When Chen Xi returned to the courtyard, it was already dusk.
Meng Wei and Mo Ya took the teenagers to play on the street. Chen Xi gave them a large sum of money and told them to buy whatever they saw, without being polite.
Axiu also followed. This girl in a green skirt who is always smiling never misses the opportunity to join in the fun.
The courtyard was deep and quiet, and Chen Xi was the only one left.
He was sitting alone in the room, looking at the bronze box in front of him, his expression a little strange.
This bronze box is only one foot in size. It is simple and cold to the touch. The surface is engraved with dense and complex patterns, including the sun, moon, stars, flowers, plants, insects, fish, ancestors' sacrifices, sages preaching, etc.
The bronze box is imprisoned by a law and cannot be opened unless the gods take action.
This is the artifact of the Nine Wonders Immortal Cauldron, an item that the tall middle-aged man personally gave to Chen Xi after chatting with him.
The content of the chat was very simple. The tall, middle-aged man called himself Dong Ye, and then cut to the chase and handed the bronze box to Chen Xi.
At that time, Dongye only said one sentence, "You have the aura of Cangwu, the Ant King, and it is fate that you and I can meet each other. Therefore, you must accept this bronze box."
Then, Chen Xi had to accept this very unexpected gift.
He also asked Dongye, "What exactly is in that bronze box, and why did you give it to me again?"
The answer I got was very simple. It turned out that the bronze box was a spirit conceived by the Nine Wonders Immortal Pot. It was reincarnated and was now sleeping, waiting for resurrection.
In other words, this bronze box contains the second Nine Wonders Immortal Pot!
The reason why Dong Ye handed it over to Chen Xi was because he believed that since Cang Wu and the Ant Emperor's inheritance recognized Chen Xi, he would naturally be able to protect this bronze box.
Chen Xi was shocked at that time. The spirit of the immortal artifacts such as the Nine Wonders Immortal Pot was reincarnated and sleeping in a bronze box. Who is Dong Ye?
Dong Ye didn't hide anything, and told Chen Xi directly that he was just a remnant of soul who didn't want to ascend to the immortal world, similar to a person who abandoned heaven.
As for why he didn't want to ascend to the fairy world, Dongye didn't say anything and remained tight-lipped.
It wasn't until Chen Xi was sent away that Dong Ye suddenly said something obscure and unpredictable - this time the three realms are in chaos, the sacred is like grass and all living beings are like ants, more than before, I hope Chen Xi will take care of himself.
Soon, Chen Xi woke up from his deep thoughts, put the bronze box away carefully, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The chaos in the three realms, what kind of disaster is this?"
This trip to Taotie City was originally a simple spiritual chef gold medal competition, but inadvertently, he met his elder brother Huo Moller who had been reduced to a slave, and even more absurdly and bizarrely interacted with the utensils of the Nine Wonders Immortal Pot.
Ling had a conversation and received a heavy bronze box...
All of this is so unbelievable, but it actually happened.
This always made Chen Xi feel as if there was an invisible big hand controlling everything, and he was like a moth, accidentally getting involved in it.
After thinking about it calmly, it is actually not difficult to find that the reason why Dongye talked to him and even gave him a bronze box was simply because he noticed the aura of the Cangwu Sacred Tree and the Ant Emperor Supreme on his body.
As for this bronze box, unless he waits for the reincarnation of the Jiu Miao Immortal Pot to completely awaken, he will not be able to open it with his current strength.
In short, during this trip to Taotie City, I fulfilled my promise to Old Man Ma and Master Yong, and learned about a long-cherished wish. It was time to leave.
…
Today is the last day of the Spiritual Chef Gold List Competition, and the top three will also be selected in the final examination.
This cooking show was arranged in the huge square in front of the Taotie Palace, attracting countless people to watch. The streets were packed with people, and it was extremely popular.
However, what surprised everyone was that until the start of the game, Chen Xi was not seen.
You must know that Chen Xi's name has already been heard throughout the Taotie City in the past two days. The news that he participated in the Spiritual Chef Gold List Competition and achieved an impressive result in the top ten has caused a sensation in the whole city and shocked the hearts of the people.
It can be said that most of the people who come to watch the competition now want to see it with their own eyes. So what does Chen Xi look like? How can his fighting power be so amazing, and how can he even have such amazing cooking skills?
But until now, let alone Chen Xi's people, not even a shadow could be found. What happened?
The crowd became restless, looking left and right, not thinking about the game.
This made the spiritual chefs who participated in the final competition all look ugly. Being so nakedly ignored made them feel powerless when cooking the dishes. Who would have thought that Chen Xi could be so attractive?
In front of a ladder leading to the ground, it was empty and deserted.
Chen Xi turned around and glanced at this majestic city built on the sky, then looked away, waved and said: "Let's go!"
Meng Wei, Mo Ya and the teenagers were already well prepared. Senior Brother Huo Moller was carried on Meng Wei's body and was still sleeping. His condition was obviously much better.
Only Axiu looked longingly at the "City of Food" behind her and muttered: "Hey, do you want to stay for one more day? I still have a lot of delicious food that I haven't tasted yet..."
Chen Xi grabbed the girl's soft arm: "If you want to eat, I will cook it for you later. Now is the time to leave!"
"Well, this is what you promised, and you are not allowed to go back on it." Ah Xiu said.
"When have I ever regretted it?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows.
"I knew you were the best." Axiu smiled and rolled her eyes, hugging Chen Xi's arm and jumping for joy, her soft and delicate body also pressed against Chen Xi's solid arm, not caring about the difference between men and women.
Chen Xi's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly threw his arms, but unexpectedly, Axiu was like an octopus and couldn't be shaken away, which made Chen Xi very embarrassed...
…
"Who is that person? Why did he leave Taotie City at this time?" Not long after Chen Xi and others left, a group of people arrived in front of the ladder, and a woman in the lead asked.
This woman wears a starry rainbow crown on her head, a feathered coat with tassels, her hair is like a waterfall, her skin is white and delicate, her face is beautiful and picturesque, and she has a unique aura of nobility.
Beside her, there were a large number of guards, including old men, old women, and a few handsome young people. It seemed like a big family and extremely high-status people were traveling.
"Princess, that young man's name is Chen Xi. He is the most famous genius of Jiuhua Sword Sect today. He has done a series of great things in Cangwu Secret Realm that shocked the world. Not long ago, he also killed Yan Shisan of Tianyan Dao Sect.
His reputation is at its peak." An old man explained softly.
"Oh? I didn't expect that he was also an incredible Netherworld cultivator. I had heard of Yan Shisan before, but I didn't expect that he would be killed by this young man. This is almost the same as some of the monsters in our Immortal Spirit Mountain." The woman Ruo said.
Something to think about.
"It is indeed good that such a genius can appear among the top ten immortal sects, but it is still inferior to some of the evil geniuses in our Immortal Spirit Mountain. It is rumored that in the near future, descendants from other unknown places will also come out, and those who are hidden in the world will be born.
The disciples of the Holy Land are the real evildoers."
Next to the "princess", a young man said with emotion.
"Look, now the Three Realms are about to be in turmoil. Whether it is the ancient inheritance in the hidden pure land or the disciples from the unknown land, although they have all appeared out of nowhere, the foundations of the ten major immortal sects and the six lines of the demon sect are still there, many of them
Disciples, there are still some amazing people."
The princess's starry eyes were clear, and she commented calmly: "Although the Jiuhua Sword Sect has begun to decline in recent years, after all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and everyone knows that on the Shenhua Peak, there are still people living in seclusion.
There are some abandoners and old antiques. As long as they are here, no one can touch the foundation of Jiuhua Sword Sect."
"Princess, your first destination should be the Jiuhua Sword Sect, right?" An old man said with a look in his eyes in surprise.
"Is there anything wrong?" The princess smiled softly, with a sense of innate pride and nobility, "I, the Immortal Spirit Mountain, have come to this world after a thousand years, so I should take a closer look at the details of these great forces.
.And the best way is undoubtedly to discuss it with their disciples."
Speaking of this, she raised her eyes and glanced at the people around her, and said calmly: "Let's go. After staying in Taotie City for a few leisurely days, it's time to stretch out our muscles and bones."
…
The journey from Taotie City to Jiuhua Sword Sect is no less than ten million miles.
But at this time, due to the injury of senior brother Huo Moller, Chen Xi couldn't wait to return to the sect immediately, so he stopped riding in the beast cart and started to fly with Meng Wei and the others.
With his current level, he could barely maintain a near-teleport speed with more than ten people, but if there were hundreds of people, it wouldn't work.
Fortunately, they also have Axiu, a mysterious and powerful girl.
With one move of her bare hands, she summoned a sliver of silvery starlight, like a carpet woven by starlight, carrying everyone at an unparalleled speed, blinking thousands of miles, as fast as lightning.
Even Chen Xi was secretly surprised. This method was no worse than his Mysterious Magnetic Wings, and looking at A Xiu's relaxed look, it was obvious that he had not used all his strength.
"Um?"
After flying for a million miles, in a remote and uninhabited wasteland, Axiu seemed to notice something and suddenly stopped. She turned her eyes and looked at the sky on one side.
"What did you find?" Chen Xi's eyes narrowed.
Axiu did not answer, but reached out her arm as white as snow, and with a slight stroke, a bright star appeared out of thin air thousands of miles away, like a sharp blade splitting from the sky, and slashed down.
Chi!
The void was suddenly torn apart with a thousand-foot-long crack. Inside it was pitch black, with extremely violent space-time storms surging. Apart from these, there was nothing.
"Sister, if you don't show up again, don't blame me for being rude to you." Axiu chuckled, her voice was clear and tinkling like the sound of nature.
"Such an alert little girl, since you want to see my sister, how could she say no?" Suddenly, a soft and deep voice with a hint of hoarseness floated out.
Accompanied by the sound, a graceful and graceful figure slowly walked out of the void. Her clothes were fluttering and her rings were jingling. I don't know when a quiet fragrance filled the air.
