Chapter 421 Tragic Life
Hearing Wu Yan say this, Taoist Xuan Ya not only did not show a happy expression, but became more miserable. He shook his head, his face showing an extremely sad and sad expression, and said: "Thirty years? What if I live another fifty or a hundred years? I have no hope of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage in this life. Living is more painful than dying. The longer I live, the longer the pain. If it weren't for the eight of them, I would have committed suicide long ago. Why should I continue to live in humiliation?"
Wu Yan frowned, and was puzzled by what Taoist Xuan Ya said, and said: "Why is this? Is there something unspeakable? Since we are all Tianzhou cultivators, if you can help me, I will do my best to help you."
Wu Yan was also inspired by the sadness and compassion in Taoist Xuan Ya's words.
Taoist Xuan Ya looked at Wu Yan deeply for a long time. Wu Yan's eyes were full of sincerity, and he looked at him without dodging.
"Alas... Daoist Wu, I hope you can keep my words a secret. You can't help me with this matter, and it may even cause you endless troubles, which is not what I want. By the way, Daoist Wu, why did you come to me today?" Taoist Xuan Ya shook his head and sighed.
Wu Yan frowned, but he didn't care much about his own affairs. He still asked: "Daoist Xuan Ya, don't you trust Wu? Or do you think Tian Suanzi's astronomical calculation is unreliable?"
"This? Alas, Daoist Wu insists on knowing the reason, then I hope that after you know this, you will not mention it to anyone, especially never let my eight disciples know." Taoist Xuan Ya showed a bitter look on his face, and then said solemnly to Wu Yan.
"Okay." Wu Yan said very straightforwardly.
Taoist Xuan Ya sighed, slowly untied the green Taoist robe he was wearing, revealing a skinny and shriveled upper body. Although Wu Yan was puzzled, he didn't say much, just looked at Taoist Xuan Ya. Taoist Xuan Ya raised his hand and tapped dozens of times on his body. Then, as he tapped quickly, bursts of pungent black death energy slowly emanated from his body.
Wu Yan frowned and stared at Taoist Xuan Ya, with a look of shock in his eyes.
After a while, the black death energy became heavier, and Taoist Xuan Ya gave a light rebuke and suddenly pulled out four small golden flags like embroidery needles from the secret acupoints on his shoulders.
Strange things happened again.
The black death energy that had just emanated from Taoist Xuan Ya strangely rolled back to his body. Almost in the blink of an eye, all the black death energy disappeared.
When he looked again, Wu Yan's eyes widened, and he stared at Taoist Xuan Ya in shock and anger, and was stunned!
Wu Yan could not imagine that such a strange and terrible thing would happen to Taoist Xuan Ya. He could not imagine how the Black Crow Taoist could endure such inhuman torture and pain and live until now!
At this moment, the Black Crow Taoist, below the shoulders and above the legs, had no flesh and skin on his entire body. The entire upper half of his body had turned into a pair of black and dry bones!
In the dry bones, the Black Crow Taoist's internal organs, qi channels and dantian were all black, coiled in the dark dry bones, clearly visible!
"This, this, this, which despicable and shameless villain treated you so viciously?" Wu Yan came back to his senses, his voice full of anger and murderous intent.
The Black Crow Taoist gritted his teeth and said, "Of course it was the thief who stole the old man's family heritage, the Kuiniu Mountain and River Seal!"
As he spoke, his black and dark organs squirmed, making Wu Yan feel indescribably weird.
Taoist Xuan Ya saw the expression on Wu Yan's face and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He inserted the four golden flags as thin as embroidery needles into the four secret acupoints on his shoulders, which still had some flesh and blood, and tapped them on his body.
In a moment, waves of black death energy rolled out and wrapped him up. Taoist Xuan Ya seemed to be enduring great pain, his face was pale, but he gritted his teeth and continued to act.
After a while, the black death energy gradually dissipated, revealing his skinny upper body again.
"Who is it?" Wu Yan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened them again, his eyes were full of undisguised murderous intent.
Taoist Xuan Ya stared at Wu Yan for a long time, sighed, and said: "Fellow Daoist Wu, have you been to Mingxi Tower in Nijiabao City and met the old thief in the Yuanying period of the Ni family?"
Wu Yan nodded and asked in a deep voice: "Could it be that the 'Netherworld Bone Erosion Ban' on you was put by that old man Ni Daoxi?"
Taoist Xuan Ya was surprised. He seemed to have not expected that Wu Yan would say such disrespectful words to the Yuanying ancestor of the Ni family, but his face showed a trace of warmth, saying: "I didn't expect that fellow Daoist Wu has such a wide range of knowledge and even knows such an evil ban. I have heard of it. Yes, this evil forbidden method on my body was set by that old man Ni Daoxi himself! In order to obtain the secret book of formation of my Xuan family, this old man not only used this evil forbidden method to trap me, making it impossible for me to make any further progress in cultivation, but also restricted a quarter of my soul, restricting my freedom and making it impossible for me to leave Liehai City forever. If it weren’t for Ah Da and the others who were all the children of our clan who were stranded outside and whom I had spent all my energy to find back in these years, I couldn’t bear to watch them die in a foreign land again, and I would have chosen to commit suicide long ago. "
Wu Yan was extremely shocked by what Taoist Xuanya said. Somehow, seeing Taoist Xuanya in front of him reminded Wu Yan of the gold master who died after exploding his golden elixir to protect himself and several senior brothers.
Wu Yan's eyes were a little moist, and looking at the old man in front of him, he felt extremely kind. However, although he was emotionally agitated at the moment, he had not lost his due reason and judgment.
Why would Taoist Xuanya trust him so much and tell him such secret things? Could it be because of his identity? Or is there another secret?
Furthermore, could it be that the ancestor of the Ni family gained all his understanding of the formation through such despicable means from Taoist Xuanya?
This is obviously very confusing. Wu Yan frowned and suddenly asked: "Fellow Xuanya, you were tortured like this by old man Ni Daoxi. This matter is already a big taboo in the world of immortality. Isn't there any other righteous and powerful monk who can intervene?" Two? Moreover, as far as Wu knows, this Ni Daoxi seems to have been a famous formation master in Xumihai hundreds of years ago. Has he been tormenting you for hundreds of years without anyone noticing? "
Xuan Ya closed his eyes in pain, as if falling into deep painful memories, and said in a sad tone: "I, the Tianzhou monk, in the eyes of the Xumihai monks, I am just fat meat that can be slaughtered by others, and anyone who catches me wants to bite it. How dare I reveal my identity? Have you ever heard of Master Fuhu?"
Wu Yan said: "Wu has indeed heard of this senior's name. However, Wu has only heard of his name and has no understanding of his life. Why, could this matter be related to Senior Fuhu? ?”
Taoist Xuanya shook his head and said: "No. Master Fuhu is the most upright monk in the Xumi Sea that I know. He once spoke uprightly to quell the monks in the Xumi Sea who were hunting down the monks in Tianzhou Continent. He even spoke out He personally stopped some such atrocities. However, it is said that the senior Fuhu layman offended the leaders of the four major sects and was besieged and suppressed by them. From then on, he disappeared. It is not known whether he died or went into hiding in sadness. . You said, even a righteous and powerful monk like him is besieged and suppressed, who dares to come forward? Besides, in the world of immortality, there are countless monks who have suffered like this, and they have secretly killed people and seized treasures. There are so many, who can manage them?"
Wu Yan remained silent, obviously agreeing with Taoist Xuanya's words. Aren’t the various experiences that have happened to me a good example?
When Taoist Xuanya saw that Wu Yan was silent, he said again: "I hate you so much. Why were you so reckless back then! More than three hundred years ago, I just successfully built the foundation and wanted to explore the tools used by our ancestors when they came to this Xumi Sea area. Where is the ancient teleportation array? Unexpectedly, the old thief Ni Daoxi was already in the late stage of pill formation and was proficient in the tracking technique. I was too confident. On the way to find the ancient teleportation array, I cracked the forbidden seal of a maritime ruins. The old thief noticed the clues and took notice of me. He later found an opportunity to capture me and tortured me in every possible way. My origin. Even if I beat him to death, he would not tell him the whole story. He then forcibly absorbed a quarter of my soul, held it in his hands, and coerced me to the island he occupied."
"This old thief originally wanted to take me as his apprentice and try to control me. Naturally, I will not recognize the thief as his master. But in order to get out of trouble, he only pretended to be hypocritical and looked for opportunities. By chance, I I got a sixth-grade elixir, and after taking it, I not only successfully formed the elixir, but also entered the middle stage of elixir formation. I thought I could take the opportunity to escape, but I didn't expect that the old thief would notice it. After a hard fight, I was captured by this old thief again. In anger, the old thief arranged this evil "Netherworld Bone Corrosion Taboo" on my body. From then on, I not only suffered from the underworld. The pain of bone erosion, and no matter how hard you practice, it is always difficult to make any progress.”
Wu Yan was so shocked that he could not speak for a long time as he was told about this secret and tortuous inhuman experience by Taoist Xuanya. Such a heinous thing was unexpectedly done by a Yuanying monk.
"Over the years, I have been forced to settle in this Sea Hunting City. I have allowed myself to be ordered by the old thief to help his Ni family grow step by step and become one of the four major families in the Sea Hunting Alliance. The old thief has always wanted to inherit the formations passed down by my family. If I hadn't seen the opportunity early and destroyed the jade slips that I knew so well, I would have been killed by this old thief, and I wouldn't have had the chance to find the secret book that was wandering away. A descendant of my own clan, I am living without any hope. Fellow Daoist Wu, what do you think is the point of living a few more years or a few years less?" Taoist Xuan Ya had finished speaking, his eyes were filled with bitterness and he stared blankly. Sitting on the cold tea on the stone table, he seemed to be talking to himself and asking Wu Yan.
Wu Yan responded in silence, unable to find any words of comfort or comfort.
