Chapter 256: Love for the Disciple, Acting Recklessly

Xingnong slowly stood up, dusted himself off, and began to speak.

"Daoyou, don't be anxious."

"Take a rest here first. I will explain the reasons to you in detail. It won't be too late for you to make a decision then!"

After hearing Xingnong's words, Xue Wu Ran calmed down and thought carefully for a moment. He was eager to save his disciple and was indeed a little impulsive.

After all, this is not Xuantian Realm, but another strange place.

Seeing that Xue Wu Ran had calmed down, Xingnong brought over a bowl of medicine, handed it to Xue Wu Ran and said.

"Fellow Daoist, drink this bowl of medicine first. It will help your injuries."

Xue Wu Ran was no longer on guard against Xingnong and took the medicine from him.

This is indeed the case. If Xingnong wanted to take his life, it would be an easy task before his spiritual power recovered.

Xue Wu Ran took a look at the medicine in his hand, put it to his mouth and drank it in one gulp.

The moment the soup entered his body, Xue Wu Ran felt some changes beginning to occur in his body.

The cuts on his body began to heal gradually.

Xue Wu Ran was shocked and admired Xingnong's unique ability even more.

After all, someone with this level of skill is definitely not an ordinary person.

Seeing Xue Wu Ran finish drinking the medicine, Xing Nong smiled and said.

"Fellow Daoist Xue Wu Ran, the medicine you just drank was the Jade Spring Ambrosia brewed by this old man."

"I guess you've also discovered that it's very effective."

Xue Wu Ran nodded slightly to show his agreement.

However, at this moment, he was more concerned about the mysterious Chujiang Mansion and the soul of his disciple.

"Divine doctor, what's different about Chujiang Mansion?" Xue Wu Ran asked doubtfully.

Xingnong looked at Xue Wuran and began to tell the story.

"The place you are in now is the Penglai Fairyland, which can also be called Penglai Island."

"There are countless forces distributed in this Penglai fairyland, and the forces are also divided into strong and weak."

"The Chujiang Mansion and Huangye Cliff that you encountered before are relatively strong."

"The forces that are as powerful as the former include the Giant Mountain's Drunken Giant, the Qingyun Village's Swordsman, the Evil Valley's Yimu, the Chivalrous Manor's Heroes, the South Sea Warriors, the Changyou Clan, and the Luyi Clan, etc."

After listening to Xingnong's words, Xue Wu Ran realized that the strength of this place was even greater than that of Xuantian Realm, and even far superior to Xuantian Realm.

"Divine doctor, isn't this the Jianxu Secret Realm? When did it become the Penglai Fairyland?" Xue Wu Ran asked the doubts in his heart.

"The Secret Realm of Jianxu..." Xingnong frowned and began to recall in his mind.

Seeing that Xingnong didn't say anything, Xue Wu Ran couldn't help but ask.

"Divine Doctor, is there something wrong?"

Hearing this, Xingnong came back to his senses and looked at Xue Wuran with a strange look.

"Fellow Daoist, I can tell you for sure that this place is indeed the Penglai Fairyland."

"As for the Sword Ruins Secret Realm you mentioned, I have never heard of it."

"Unless, the Sword Ruins Secret Realm and Penglai Fairyland you mentioned are two different spaces."

"As the miracle doctor said, the two are indeed different." Xue Wu Ran nodded in response.

"Penglai Fairyland is an independent world, headed by Bu Jingyun, the master of Penglai Island. His brother Bu Yunmeng is also a powerful man and founded the Chuxian Pavilion." Xingnong explained again.

"After the great war between immortals and demons, the immortal emperors sealed the demons in Weird Mist Swamp, which was later designated as a forbidden area."

"Later, the demons gathered their strength in the dark. As time went by, they broke through the seal, and Guiwu Lake became the demons' base camp."

"And Penglai Fairyland is the only passage leading to the Weird Mist Swamp. After the death of the Fairy Emperors, no one thought that the demons would break through the seal."

"By the time we discovered it, it was too late. The demon clan's power had already infiltrated Penglai Fairyland."

"In order to ensure the peace of Penglai Fairyland, Penglai Island Master Bu Jingyun led the astrologers to set up a barrier at the entrance of the passage."

"At first, the barrier was able to restrict the invasion of demons, but later, I don't know what methods the demons used, but some demons continued to infiltrate."

"The demons are evil and have been causing harm to other forces. Not long after, the two major forces, Chujiang Mansion and Evil Valley, joined the demons one after another."

"Later, the astrologer headed by Hongjun led the other astrologers to practice the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation. With the help of Bu Jingyun, they finally succeeded after countless deductions."

When he said this, Xingnong looked at Xue Wuran.

"The dead loop you encountered before was the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation!"

"So that's it!" Xue Wu Ran's face showed understanding.

A green gourd appeared in Xingnong's hand. He opened it, took a big sip, and continued.

"The Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation completely restricts the infiltration of the demons, but it has advantages and disadvantages. It also restricts the Penglai Fairyland."

"If you want to pass through the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation, you need the right time, place, and people. At the same time, each of these eight formation points is guarded by powerful generals!"

"If you want to go out, it's almost impossible!" Xingnong said in a firm tone at last.

Hearing this, Xue Wu Ran looked a little ugly and sighed softly.

"Divine Doctor, is it really impossible to leave?"

Xingnong was silent for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"In recent years, the power of the demons has continued to grow, and the Chujiang Mansion's recent behavior has been a bit strange."

"I guess they want to break the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation and allow other demons to enter Penglai Fairyland."

"After they break the formation, you may have a chance to leave."

Xingnong's words ignited a glimmer of hope in Xue Wuran's heart.

However, breaking the formation is easier said than done.

The existence of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Formation is to prevent the demons from entering the Penglai Fairyland. If it were so easy to break the formation, it would have been broken long ago.

At this time, Xue Wu Ran felt a little regretful.

If he had not entered the Sword Ruins, his disciple would not be a body without a soul now.

Xue Wu Ran calmed himself down and asked again.

"Divine Doctor, do you know why the spiritual energy in my body has dissipated and cannot be gathered?"

Xingnong explained while lying in his chair with his eyes narrowed.

“Back then, before the Demon Emperor of the Netherworld was sealed by the Immortal Emperors, he blew up the magic pill in his body, causing the Penglai Fairyland to be suppressed by the power of the Netherworld.

"The spiritual power in all practitioners' bodies was also suppressed, while the demons' spiritual power was enhanced."

"It is precisely because of this that many practitioners cannot stand the oppression and choose to join the demon clan."

Xue Wu Ran nodded and had a clearer understanding of the Penglai Fairyland.

"Your spiritual power has only just recovered and your injuries are not healed yet. You should rest for a few more days." Xingnong said.

Xue Wu Ran shook his head and said in a firm tone.

"No, I want to go to Chujiang Mansion!"

How can he rest peacefully now?

Wu Yuying's soul is in the hands of the demons and there is no time to lose.

Thinking of this, the expression on Xue Wu Ran's face became even uglier.

After hearing this, Xingnong was also a little annoyed.

"Do you know where the Chujiang Mansion is and how strong they are?"

Xue Wu Ran frowned and shook his head slowly.

“I can tell you that even if you go to Chujiang Mansion, you cannot bring back your disciple’s soul.” Xingnong said in a flat tone.

Although Xingnong understood that Xue Wu Ran loved his disciple dearly, acting rashly would only backfire.
