Exposed After I became an Immortal - Chapter 6
Chapter 6: Boss, Let’s Go See Xiongying Again!
……
[Ding! Evolution path selected. Please continue to enlighten this silverfish. If the evolution fails, the host will receive a certain degree of punishment.]
[If the evolution is successful, the host will receive continuous rewards!]
At this moment, Zhu Xuanji’s heart was filled with joy.
Today was truly fruitful.
Initially, he planned to have Xiao Zhi and Xiao Shu bring out the old turtle they had named. To enlighten that old turtle as well.
However, after using the enlightenment technique on Xiao Shu, Zhu Xuanji found that his spiritual power was nearly exhausted. Moreover, he heard the system’s prompt again.
[Ding! The host’s enlightenment technique has entered the cooldown period!]
[Cannot continue to enlighten living beings within three months!]
Wow!
When Zhu Xuanji heard this sound, he almost cursed.
What? The enlightenment technique has a cooldown period? So, I can only enlighten up to five living beings every three months? Fine! There goes my plan to exploit the system! This system is too cunning!
It didn’t tell him before! Now, after using up the five times, it reminded him!
Fortunately, these five enlightenments were not entirely fruitless. Apart from Xiao Ya and Xiao Ning, who had ordinary qualifications! No substantial rewards from these two silverfish. But from Da Huang, Xiao Zhi, and Xiao Shu, he received pretty good rewards.
According to the system’s regulations, he could only enlighten up to five living beings in three months. If some beings are difficult to enlighten, who knows, it might be even less.
Thinking of this, Zhu Xuanji didn’t immediately let Xiao Shu and others find the old turtle.
Instead, he returned to the Spirit Gathering Array to cultivate.
Anyway, the old turtle couldn’t escape.
He decided to rest and train well, it wouldn’t be too late to enlighten the old turtle later.
…
In the blink of an eye, three months passed again.
During these three months, nothing much happened on Zhongshan. Zhu Xuanji, however, grew a bit taller.
On this day, on the mountain top, just after sunrise, Zhu Xuanji walked out of the Yunmeng Dao Pavilion.
Followed by a large mountain dog, naturally Da Huang!
Over the past three months, Da Huang and Zhu Xuanji had beome quite close. While Zhu Xuanji was cultivating in the Yunmeng Dao Pavilion, Da Huang sometimes followed in.
Though Da Huang appeared clumsy, he was indeed very loyal, always executing Zhu Xuanji’s commands tirelessly.
After three months of training, Zhu Xuanji further improved his Beast Mastery Technique and Basic Enlightenment Technique. He was just waiting for the three-month period to pass to find the old turtle by the lake.
To enlighten the old turtle, see if he could get some great rewards from it.
Zhu Xuanji had just walked out of the Yunmeng Dao Pavilion not long ago.
At this moment, Da Huang started barking!
Zhu Xuanji listened.
Immediately said to Da Huang: “Da Huang! What are you barking at early in the morning!”
Da Huang replied: “Master! I heard many people coming up the mountain.”
Zhu Xuanji was stunned upon hearing this.
“Hmm? Many people coming up the mountain? Where are they?”
Da Huang said: “Still at the foot of the mountain!”
Zhu Xuanji knew Da Huang had sharp ears. But he didn’t expect, just after a few months, Da Huang’s hearing to become so acute. He could even hear movements at the foot of the mountain.
Zhu Xuanji’s eyes rolled.
He thought it was certainly something important if people were coming up the mountain early in the morning. So, he decided to go see what was happening.
Anyway, even if others came to Zhongshan, they wouldn’t see him.
But … he couldn’t guarantee if outsiders would see Da Huang. However … Da Huang was just a dog. Even if others saw it, it shouldn’t matter much!
Thinking of this, Zhu Xuanji said to Da Huang beside him: “Da Huang, lead the way ahead.”
“Take me to see what is going on!”
Da Huang barked “Woof!”
And ran ahead.
Da Huang ran incredibly fast. After being enlightened, Da Huang seemed to become more agile. Though he ate grass all day!
He was muscled!
Spirit grass was a spiritual substance from heaven and earth, it could improve the constitution of living beings. Da Huang was no longer an ordinary dog.
Da Huang ran fast.
Zhu Xuanji wasn’t slow either.
Over these three months, he tried practicing “Boundless Soaring Technique”.
Although he hadn’t achieved even a small accomplishment, but … keeping up with Da Huang was no problem.
Soon, Zhu Xuanji and Da Huang reached the mountainside.
They saw on the mountain road, amidst the lush mountain forest, someone was carrying a large coffin, heading up the mountain. Following the coffin were many people dressed in mourning clothes.
At the very front of the coffin, a middle-aged man was holding a memorial tablet. His face was haggard, with tears in his eyes, looking very sorrowful.
The funeral procession was long. It extended down to the foot of the mountain.
Zhu Xuanji stood at the mountainside, watching the funeral procession, he said quietly: “Oh, this is undoubtedly a wealthy family! All these people for a funeral, there must be hundreds!”
Zhu Xuanji watched from the mountainside for a long time.
As the setting sun fell, the funeral procession went down the mountain.
Cries echoed through the mountain.
“Xiuying!”
“We … can’t bear to part with you! How could you leave us so heartlessly!”
Zhu Xuanji initially planned to leave after watching the lively scene all day.
But hearing these somewhat bitter cries, he thought this must be a deep love between husband and wife. There weren’t many men in this world who would cry like this for their dead wives!
Driven by curiosity, Zhu Xuanji decided to take a look.
Soon, Zhu Xuanji arrived at the place where people were crying.
Not far away, in front of a grand tomb, an old man in black clothes, with white hair, was crying bitterly:
“Xiuying! You left … how can I live!”
Beside him, the middle-aged man in mourning clothes couldn’t help but shed tears.
“Father! It’s getting late! It’s time to go back!”
At this moment!
The old man, holding back his sorrow, said: “Boss! Let’s go see Xiongying again! Now, your mother is in the underworld, she should be able to see Xiongying!”
Not far away, Zhu Xuanji, hiding behind the small forest, heard this.
His body trembled!
“Xiongying? Could it be that these two people are relatives of my former self?”
