"Are you Xiaohu?" Wang Baole spoke slowly, staring at the old man in front of him.
"Yes and no." The ancestor of Yuexing Sect replied hoarsely.
"I have been with my master for many years. I was once a demon and a sword spirit. I have experienced countless epochs and walked through the stars. Finally, I was willing to die. I gathered a trace of immortality and entered this world with my little master to protect him.
"
"Speaking of which, many years ago on your star, I met you once and gave some enlightenment to one of your magic puppets to make it strange. I think it has also helped you to a certain extent over the years.
.”
"Years ago?" Wang Baole pondered with his eyes open. After a while, he raised his right hand and waved, and suddenly a puppet flew out of his storage bag. This puppet...Wang Baole had not used it for many years, and it was the first one he created.
There was a puppet, and then the puppet itself underwent many changes.
"Exactly this puppet." Ancestor Yuexing smiled slightly.
Looking at the puppet and then at Ancestor Yuexing, Wang Baole couldn't help but look strange, because he thought of his puppet, which seemed to... have some indescribable evil in the so-called strange aspects.
The entangled opponents are all miserable.
This evil destiny is somewhat incongruous with the image of Patriarch Yuexing who is still vaguely immortal despite his unattractive appearance.
For no reason, Wang Baole took a few steps back and looked at Ancestor Yuexing with a more solemn look.
"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to be afraid. Before I died, I was still capable of fighting with you. Now that I have been reincarnated with my spiritual mind, even though I have reached the third step, I am no match for you." Patriarch Yuexing said calmly, and then said
With a wave of his hand, two futons transformed and landed at Wang Baole's feet.
"Please take a seat."
Wang Baole looked at the futon carefully, and after scanning it with his spiritual mind to make sure it was okay, he sat down cross-legged. Various thoughts came to his mind, and he completely understood the cause and effect of this agreement.
As agreed sixty-eight years ago, we met in front of the cliff today. When we came, Wang Baole thought that he had guessed the identity of the other party, but now he understood that his guess was both right and wrong.
He guessed that the ancestor of Yuexing Sect should be Xiaohu back then.
But he didn't expect that besides Xiaohu's identity, there was another identity, so...this sixty-eight-year agreement was not so much an appointment with himself as an invitation to Wang Yiyi...
Because... Wang Baole could guess who the master was. It must be Wang Yiyi's father. The name of the little master, and the sight of Wang Yiyi emerging from the mask in Wang Baole's arms at this moment, made Wang Baole understand that what he is now
The judgment is correct.
"Uncle Xu..." Wang Yiyi spoke softly and bowed to the ancestor of the Yuexing Sect in front of him.
The ancestor of Yuexing Sect had a smile on his face, he stared at Wang Yiyi for a long time, his smile became more kind, and he spoke softly.
"Yiyi, the time has come."
Wang Yiyi opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but fell silent in the end.
Seeing this, Wang Baole's heart fluctuated. At the same time, Patriarch Yuexing moved his eyes away from Wang Yiyi and looked at Wang Baole. He stood up and bowed to Wang Baole with clasped fists.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for protecting my little master."
"No need to thank you for this." Wang Baole replied softly. When he looked at Wang Yiyi, his eyes were very soft. It could be said that... the other person was the person who had truly been with him throughout his life.
From the first encounter until now.
"Senior, I've made an appointment to meet here today, what's the matter?" Wang Baole took a deep breath, looked at Ancestor Yuexing, and asked in a deep voice. He really wanted to know what would happen in the end of this sixty-eight-year agreement.
Ancestor Yuexing looked solemn, still keeping his fists clasped, and did not stand up.
"Xu made an appointment with Taoist friends to meet here. There are three things to do."
"One, welcome the return of my little master, make the little master's spirit intact, and prepare for the final resurrection...to complete the last step." Yuexing Ancestor said, raised his right hand and waved, and suddenly the void was distorted, and fragments appeared out of thin air.
Appeared, the stream of light overflowed, the sky also shone with light, and there was endless light in all directions, making this place a sea of light.
The source of this sea of light is those fragments. As they shine at this moment, these fragments gather rapidly in the mid-air between Yuexing Ancestor and Wang Baole, and finally form half of a mask!
Seeing the appearance of the mask, Wang Baole breathed a little faster and took out his mask from his arms. Almost the moment the mask appeared, there was also a strong and bright light emanating from it. At the same time, it was extremely dazzling.
Zhang's incomplete mask seemed to be pulled by invisible force, slowly approaching until they merged together...
Mask complete!!
There is no longer any defect, and there is an astonishing aura emanating from it. This aura is sacred and seems to be inviolable. If it can suppress all directions, it will shake the starry sky where Yuexing Sect is located, and even affect the side sects.
Sanctuary.
"This mask was made by the master himself. It seemed to be complete when it was first made. In fact, it had cracks and fragments from the beginning. There are seventeen pieces in total. Each piece contains a trace of the little master's remnant soul.
Its remnant soul can be cultivated within, and once...one day this mask is truly complete without any cracks, then all the remnant souls of the little master can be merged and complete...resurrection!"
"But to make it complete, it requires a specific method. The main medicine required for this method is... immortal bone!"
"Only a complete immortal can form immortal bones in the body."
"So, the second thing I asked my Taoist friends to come here is to hope that they can... obtain the entire inheritance of immortals as soon as possible and become true immortals."
"Before that, the little master will follow me, and my mind will maintain the integrity of his mask, waiting for your success."
When Wang Baole heard this, he seemed to be normal, but deep in his eyes, there was a glimmer of complexity. He was not stupid, on the contrary... he had experienced too many things, and he had developed a keen mind and could detect
The unfinished words hidden in the other person's words.
He didn't know what the other party was hiding, and he didn't want to ask. At this moment, his eyelids were slightly lowered, covering up the complexity in his eyes. And even the ancestor of Yuexing, who was also a sharp-minded person, didn't notice any of his actions.
, still continuing to speak
"And the third thing is reward..." Just as the Yuexing Sect ancestor said this, Wang Yiyi suddenly spoke.
"Uncle Xu, don't hide it from him."
Patriarch Yuexing paused and looked at Wang Yiyi.
"I don't want to hide it from him, Uncle Xu... tell him the truth." Wang Yiyi spoke softly. If you listen carefully, you can hear her voice trembling. When the words came out, she seemed to dare not look at Wang Baole.
He lowered his head and silently walked towards the mask floating in the air between Wang Baole and Yuexing Ancestor. After getting closer, he gradually blended into it.
Its back shows timidity, loneliness, and deep escape. As it blends in, it slowly disappears...
It seemed that she didn't want to face what was going to happen next.
Wang Baole raised his head, slowly raised his half-fallen eyelids, looked at the mask, and sighed softly.
"Is it true that just the immortal bones can't completely heal the cracks in the mask?"
There was no sound in the mask, and Patriarch Yuexing also fell silent at this moment. He looked at the mask and then at Wang Baole. There were obviously more wrinkles on his face.
"I still need your fate." After a while, Patriarch Yuexing spoke in a low voice.
