Chapter 9: The Strange Master
"Senior, I've arrived, please make it convenient and open the door. Following the path marked by the mysterious master, Ye Qiuli didn't know how many pavilions and pavilions he had crossed along the way, and how many streams and jade bridges he had crossed, and finally came to the core of the Immortal Mansion in the cave smoothly, stopping in front of a magnificent and heavy rock palace.
"Hehe, it's been a long time since anyone has come to the old man's mountain Beppu, and this is the first time in a thousand years. ...... Hurry up, please come in, hurry up, please come in!" I don't know if it was because I hadn't been in contact with outsiders for too long, the mysterious master's reaction was obviously a little different, and he waited for several breaths before finally laughing with Ye Qiuli, and then took the initiative to open the gate of the palace and welcome him in.
"Then thank you to the seniors for the fulfillment!" Seeing that the mysterious master sent out invitations one after another, Ye Qiuli didn't think about anything else, and after being polite to him again, he immediately adjusted his mind and walked into the big hall in front of him.
After a long time of exploration and full of doubts, he was about to get the final answer, and he was also very excited, and he couldn't wait to figure out all those things at once. However, as a cultivator, his reserve and bearing still allowed him to quickly adjust his mind in a few breaths, so that he could face what was about to happen with a more peaceful and indifferent attitude.
Hearing Ye Qiuli's extremely polite answer, the mysterious man laughed again: "Hehe, everyone who comes is a guest, and Xiaoyou doesn't need to be so polite." Speaking seriously, the old man was rude and didn't take the initiative to go outside the cave to greet Xiaoyou!"
"Ah, seniors, don't do that. This time, the junior came here rashly, and he accidentally disturbed the senior's Qing Xiu, and it was too late to ask the senior's forgiveness, how could he dare to ask the seniors to take the initiative to greet him? That was really too frustrating!" Hearing the polite words of the mysterious master, Ye Qiuli didn't care whether the environment was suitable, so he quickly lowered his posture and talked to him humbly again.
After such a long period of careful observation, coupled with the fact that he had just personally experienced the majesty and grandeur of the immortal mansion in the cave here, Ye Qiuli's judgment of the mysterious master had improved by several levels, and he did not dare to have the slightest contempt for him, and when communicating with him, he was also a little more cautious, for fear that the good atmosphere between the two would be destroyed because of some unnecessary mistakes.
Being under the low eaves and having to bow your head is what you are talking about. Truly in the current special environment that was completely beyond his expectations, personally facing a mysterious cultivator whose cultivation strength would not reach any higher realm, even if he had more thoughts, he had to firmly suppress them in the bottom of his heart, not daring to let them show them at will, thus causing the dissatisfaction of that mysterious master.
The cultivation world is such a place where the weak eat the strong, and the winner is king, and when the strength is not as good as others, naturally there is not much power to speak. If you can't recognize your own ability and act recklessly without scruples, you will not only fail to achieve the set goals in the end, but will even make things worse, and finally implicate your own net worth and life, and bring a fatal blow to yourself.
At this time, although the tone of the mysterious master was indeed very peaceful, he could not hear the slightest malicious existence, and even had some incomprehensible intimacy, but Ye Qiuli would not arrogantly think that things would be determined like this, and nothing would change, and his whole person would be completely in a safe and stable state, and there was no need to worry about other dangerous situations at all.
This situation may still occur in ordinary people, but in the case of Ye Qiuli, who has already carved caution into the depths of his bone marrow, it is completely impossible to happen. Even if he has controlled the whole situation in his hands, he will still not be negligent, and he will definitely be fully prepared for this to prevent himself from being caught off guard after the accident really happens.
Therefore, when he really communicated with that mysterious master, Ye Qiuli did not change in the slightest by his polite and sincere appearance, and always adhered to his true nature, facing that person with an extremely modest and cautious attitude, even if there was a slight sign of weakness, he didn't pay attention to it at all.
After all, cultivators are different from ordinary mortals, and the most important purpose of survival is to pursue a higher cultivation realm. For them, as long as they can successfully achieve their goals and ensure their own safety smoothly, some face losses can be completely put aside.
Now, Ye Qiuli took the initiative to lower his posture and put himself in a slightly weaker position to communicate with that mysterious master, obviously the most correct choice made in order to successfully achieve his set goals, there was nothing embarrassing about it, let alone any unacceptable feelings. For him, that kind of thing is completely fleeting, and it will not leave the slightest trace.
......
"Hehe, let's not be polite to each other here, let's hurry up and get down to business!" Seeing that Ye Qiuli finally came to him smoothly, the mysterious master did not hesitate, when he got up and walked in front of him, he was simple and polite, and then quickly changed the topic, directing the attention of the two of them to the next thing.
"Well, what the seniors said is, these words are too much, and they really don't make any sense. Hearing the greeting of the mysterious master, Ye Qiuli didn't have time to carefully look at the situation in the main hall, and quickly followed the man's words, and then he had time to concentrate all his attention, and quickly scanned the entire hall with great speed, imprinting the scene into his own sea of knowledge.
However, it was such a simple look, but Ye Qiuli couldn't help but be taken aback, and he didn't care whether he was polite or not, and immediately exclaimed with surprise on his face: "Ah! senior, you are ?......?"
It turned out that the person who appeared in front of him at this time was not the top cultivation master he imagined, but a real Yuan Baby. Although the appearance of that Yuan Infant is completely no different from that of ordinary real people, and it is also full of delicate and heavy realism, the unique aura exuded from its body makes it very clear that it is definitely a Yuan Baby, not something else.
If it was just that, it wouldn't have surprised Ye Qiuli so much. Because in the cultivation world, it is not uncommon for him to lose his physical body due to some unexpected change, and only the Yuan Infant and Demon Spirit remain in the world, in his hundreds of years of cultivation career, I don't know how many times he has seen such a thing, he already has a great immunity to this, and he will not feel anything special because of it.
At least, the Scattered Immortals and Demon Scattering Masters that he had cooperated with or fought in the Holy Martial Continent before were cultivated by the Yuan Infant and Demon Spirits who had lost their physical bodies through a series of mysterious steps, and they didn't bring him much different feelings at all, let alone surprise him fiercely.
And now, the mysterious master who appeared in front of him, although it was indeed a primordial infant, but his body had not been lost, and he was sitting peacefully on the futon beside him, and he didn't see anything wrong with it at all.
These two characters, who looked exactly the same and didn't see any difference in the slightest, suddenly appeared in front of Ye Qiuli's eyes like this, which really brought him great surprise, making him exclaim loudly involuntarily, and the degree of shock was really evident from this.
Although as long as the cultivation reaches the out-of-body realm, the cultivator can use the method of the Yuan Infant out of the body to get his Yuan Infant out of the shackles of the body, and freely swim and survive in the external environment, and the higher the cultivation realm, the simpler the process, the longer the Yuan Infant stays in the outside world, and after a certain level, he can completely keep his Yuan Infant outside the body and let it move freely.
But that's the kind of thing that very few people actually do. Because compared to the physical body that has been cultivating for many years and has long been unaware of what realm it has evolved to, the Yuan Infant of a cultivator is too fragile, and the slightest injury will cause irreparable serious consequences, and when the situation is serious, it will even directly cause the cultivator to die and disappear, and thousands of years of cultivation will be completely destroyed.
This situation is one of the most basic facts in the cultivation world, and it will not change in the slightest because of the cultivator's subjective will, no matter how much effort he makes and how many means he uses, it will have no effect.
This problem can be clearly seen from the phenomenon that the bodies of scattered immortals and scattered demons are obviously weaker than those of masters of the same level. The fragility of the Yuan Infant itself could not be compensated for in any way, and it was only up to the cultivators to do their best to protect it firmly.
Therefore, no one will move their Yuan Infant out of their body unless they are forced to do so, and even if that behavior is not the slightest difficult for themselves, no one will take the risk of doing so.
With the protection of a strong body and all kinds of magic weapons, the cultivator's Yuan Infant may suffer irreparable damage due to some too strong blows, if it only relies on the Yuan Infant's own ability, then the danger will obviously increase thousands of times, and there is almost no comparison between the two. A single piece of Yuanying Inner Armor, even if it has an effect, is not strong anywhere!
It is precisely because they know very well the huge difference that cultivators will do everything they can to protect their Yuan Infant in the safest place possible, and they will definitely not easily release it and make trouble for themselves.
At this time, this mysterious master actually faced Ye Qiuli in the form of a Yuan Baby, even if he knew that his physical body was on the side, he would not return. This kind of extremely unreasonable thing, how not to make Ye Qiuli feel surprised and puzzled from the bottom of his heart, I don't know what went wrong. In all these years of Xiuzhen, he had never seen anything like this!
