Chapter 1821 - Great Virtue
Everyone felt that this world was too crazy. Even a little dog even dared to act high and mighty, becoming an existence they couldn’t see through.
Hong Family, this was but a powerful true immortal family. This old clan master achieved immortality during Immortal Ancient times, his strength powerful. After acc.u.mulating for an entire great era’s time, it was hard to imagine just how powerful he was now.
Yet now, something completely unexpected happened. He was a human pet? A dog was his master!
This… really was too shocking! It was as if heavenly thunder rumbled, hacking everyone until their minds were scorched, their exteriors tender. This was just too astonis.h.i.+ng, or perhaps it could be called inconceivable.
The powerful being of a generation -- Hong Fa, actually had this type of dark history!
It really was hard to say whether this was a complicated situation, or if it was a blemish. It was just too unimaginable, leaving many people dumbstruck.
In that instant, all eyes gathered on the small dog’s body at the same time, even s.h.i.+ Hao who had previously displayed his power was temporarily overlooked by others. All of them were staring at the little dog.
Everyone’s eyes were burning fiercely. Even though this fella’s figure wasn’t all that imposing, not a True Dragon, not an Immortal Phoenix, it had previously taken in a true immortal as a human pet!
“I do not know what we should call senior?” Someone made his way over, kneeling down and showing great respect.
After someone did this, the others all came over when they saw this, men and women included, old and young. It was as if they were looking at a rare animal, staring at this puppy, and then paying their respects.
Who knows, it might very well be a rare species!
“My name is Great Virtue. Only with ethics and talent can one attain the way, only by attaining the way can one achieve immortality, this is precisely why it is called attaining the dao to achieve immortality.”
The little dog said with a serious expression, extremely solemn and dignified, speaking its name -- Great Virtue.
Cao Yusheng pinched his nose while he listened. The others were full of respect, but he was instead only irritated. He really had enough of this dog, really wanting to immediately find a pot to stew it.
He knew that this little dog was playing dumb, purposely putting on a dignified appearance.
“Senior, I must ask your distinguished self for guidance, are you willing to accept disciples?”
There were others who were even more direct, becoming impatient, directly asking this.
The others also came over with friendly intentions, coming to curry favor, but they all wanted to get a bit closer first. However, someone directly declared their intentions just like that, launching their ‘a.s.sault’.
“I reside in Upper Heavens Mountain, close to Immemorial Immortal King. I sensed that there was a great disaster, and thus came down the mountain!” The little dog said seriously.
Everyone became stupefied, it was actually this serious? However, why did they feel like something wasn’t quite right?
“Speak like a normal person please.” Cao Yusheng said.
“Human pet, don’t try to act c.o.c.ky before me, or else I’ll smack you straight to h.e.l.l and you can self reflect for ten thousand generations!” The little dog threatened.
“This dao friend, please do not speak randomly.”
“Senior speaks the truth, you cannot speak randomly!”
The others all criticized Cao Yusheng one after another, eager to get on the little dog’s good side.
Cao Yusheng wanted to curse. These idiots were all completely fooled by this little dog! Who knew whether this would be a good or bad thing?
In reality, these people weren’t idiots either, they all felt like this little dog was showing off a bit, but they also understood that its background was great, so they were all merely adapting to the situation.
Even Hong Family’s old ancestor was this dog’s human pet, just how strong was it then? If their relations with this dog were good, then there would be too many benefits!
Many people came with goals in mind, feeling that if they could curry favor with this little dog, then it would be the same as forming a powerful alliance with this family. It was something worth making the effort.
Hong Family’s people were all kneeling there, daring to feel anger but not daring to voice anything. All of them could only obediently kneel there!
“Senior, is there anything you need? We are willing to serve as your running dogs and horses!” Someone began to b.u.t.ter it up.
However, the little dog immediately glared out. What running dogs or horses? Was this person speaking highly of it or cursing it?
That person immediately wanted to smack his own mouth, really choosing the wrong words. However, this was a dog to begin with, so what was even a good way to praise it?
This little black dog was still rather calm, not acting out. Moreover, he put on an act, saying, “This poor taoist has cultivated in seclusion for millions of years, left the world of mortals for countless generations, all I wish to do is experience the affairs of the secular world for a bit.”
“Senior truly is a very able person!”
“Great Virtue senior’s cultivation realm is something we cannot even look up to, cannot fathom.”
A group of people said in praise and admiration, but there was a bit of truth to it. They indeed couldn’t fathom the little dog’s current cultivation, unable to see through it at all. They felt like what it said might be reasonable.
“I must ask senior to explain more for us, lecture on the dao. We are full of incomparable desire, willing to listen to great laws!” Many people asked.
They indeed wished to hear the great dao lectures of Hong Fa true immortal’s master.
“For me, withdrawing from worldly affairs is already something of the lower cultivation realms, explaining scriptures too shallow. All laws and dao are contained within every word and action, contained within the hundred changes of the mortal world.” The little dog said in a deep voice.
Cao Yusheng rolled his eyes at him, really wanting to shout out ‘you really know how to act’, but this time, he was warned by the stupid dog, thus not daring to speak out too much. Otherwise, he would likely have been bitten.
“I must ask senior to help us dispel some of our confusion, explain a step further!” Someone asked seriously.
“
Wu
, that is fine. Do you all have divine medicines on you?” The little dog asked.
Everyone felt a wave of hesitation, but in the end, there was still someone who brought out a stalk, placing it on the jade table. This was an inheritor from an Immortal Domain great family.
This was quite the big move, carrying a stalk of divine medicine on him, able to use it to preserve his life when needed!
Of course, the roots weren’t there, left in the clan’s medicinal garden.
“Who else has any?” The little dog asked.
“I do!”
Then, there were two others who stood out after some hesitation. Under the little dog’s gesturing, they placed the divine medicines on the jade table.
Not far out, Cao Yusheng’s eyes revealed a flash of lowly light. This time, he became quiet. Even without any warnings, he became obedient, playing his part, secretly looking forward to the results.
It was because he knew that this stupid dog was definitely not of the good sort, definitely not having good intentions!
“Who has a Nine Reincarnations Immortal Pill?” The little dog asked.
This time, everyone became speechless. All of them shook their heads. What kind of joke was this? Would they carry something like that randomly on them? That was but an unmatched precious pill refined from long life medicines!
This type of pill was extremely rare even in Immortal Domain, rarely seen.
However, this type of unmatched immortal pill, even eating a single one gave one the potential to ascend to immortality!
This was the most valuable precious pill from the past until now!
“If you don’t, then forget it.” The little dog shook its head in a bit of dissatisfaction.
Then, it reached out a little claw, picking up a stalk of divine medicine, starting to chew on it like a radish, directly eating it just like that.
“Senior” That youngster who produced that divine medicine almost jumped up. Even if he came from Immortal Domain, his family backing abundant, giving someone their divine medicine to be chewed like a radish really couldn’t be endured. This was an utter spendthrift!
He originally thought that this little dog would use the divine medicine to derive the great dao, or perhaps explain some unmatched mysteries of fate or reasoning.
In the end, it was directly eaten just like that!
The other two who brought out divine medicines couldn’t sit still, opening their mouths, about to seize it back, moreover reaching out their hands, but in the end, the little dog was even faster, two more ‘radishes’ obtained, chewing through them!
“
Ah,
this…” The faces of the three of them became green. They wanted to say something, even more so wanted to curse out, but they then swallowed it back down, not really daring.
“In my eyes, the so-called divine medicines and immortal herbs, are nothing more than ordinary food, the fruits of the mortal world. After remaining in seclusion for too long, I couldn’t help but miss them a bit, wis.h.i.+ng to give these medicines a taste.” The little dog said.
It had a serious look on its face, but a pair of dog paws were slowly moving about, as if it was lazing about, this type of appearance extremely strange.
Everyone stared at this carefully, believing that there was some deeper meaning to this.
Only Cao Yusheng who knew its true nature inwardly spat out, turning his head to leave. He knew that this stupid dog was definitely messing around, leaving him furious. It actually didn’t leave a stalk of divine medicine for him.
s.h.i.+ Hao was also speechless. He beckoned Cao Yusheng over, helping him engrave a great formation diagram.
“
Ah…
” Someone screamed miserably, breaking the silence. Everyone turned around, looking in s.h.i.+ Hao’s direction.
w.a.n.g Da was screaming. The formation in his body was forcibly stripped by s.h.i.+ Hao, and then engraved into Cao Yusheng’s body.
This really was forceful. It was directly stripped, not imitating and carving it!
It was because s.h.i.+ Hao was scared that he might make a mistake, thus, he just domineeringly seized the formation, using it to complete Cao Yusheng.
“When we obtain all nine corners of the formation, that will be when you rise up.” s.h.i.+ Hao said with a smile.
On the side, blood was flowing out from the corners of w.a.n.g Da’s mouth, in incomparable pain. The process of having his part of the formation stripped was like having his bones pulled out, his entire body laying weak on the ground.
“Alright, we’ll stop here today. I’ll help clear up the dao for you all again next time.” The little dog said.
s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t ask for w.a.n.g Da’s life either. “I’ll leave you with your life for now!”
It was because he still wanted the formations of the other members of the w.a.n.g Family. If he killed w.a.n.g Da like this, it was easy for there to be strange changes.
Dong!
s.h.i.+ Hao pointed out, knocking w.a.n.g Da out, and then threw him into a spatial artifact, capturing him alive. It was because he wanted to see if he could seize the Chaos Calming Art from w.a.n.g Da.
With
sou sou
noises, the three figures disappeared from this place.
“Why are we running so fast?” Cao Yusheng was panting heavily. He couldn’t keep up anymore, in the end directly picked up by s.h.i.+ Hao.
“Why don’t you use your brain before you speak? If we don’t run faster, don’t tell me you want those old enemies to catch us?!” The little dog said.
“Don’t you have that human pet? He’s a true immortal already, what is there to be scared of?!” Cao Yusheng asked.
“If you become a true immortal, would you still willingly become the human pet of another. If he knew that my cultivation disappeared, would he or would he not want to stew me alive?” The little dog asked.
“Of course he would!”
“
Bark!
I’m going to eat you first!”
…
s.h.i.+ Hao now completely understood. This little dog had too many enemies, to the point where even it was lacking in confidence. After just appearing, it immediately ran.
Now, Immortal Domain’s great army was here, it was scared that someone would hurry over.
Just how many people did he provoke? In the past, just what kind of evil did it commit?
“Where should we go now?” Cao Yusheng asked.
“We are going to the Nine Heavens above, to pay Jin Taijun as well as Wind Clan’s old ancestor a visit.” s.h.i.+ Hao said.
