My Senior Brother is Too Steady

“Ah! Forget it! Changshou, you have to remember that no matter how capable you are, you can’t be arrogant. No matter how powerful your mystical abilities are, you can’t be arrogant! The demons are not kind either. Don’t get too involved with them!”

Crack!

Li Changshou, who was lying on the ground, pressed his palms together above his head. “I will follow Master’s instructions!”

Ling’e hurriedly said, “Thank you, Master, for not beating me up!”

“I’m going into seclusion to cultivate.” Qi Yuan shook his head. He held his horsetail whisk and floated back to his straw hut, leaving behind the view of his back that was filled with vicissitudes and stories.

In front of the window sill of the straw hut next door, two heads popped out and sized them up. They also shrank back weakly.

“Senior Sister Xiong, Senior Brother Qi Yuan is so fierce…”

“Yushi, that’s the Peak Leader of our Little Qiong Peak. He’s not fierce. He’s dignified.”

“Yes, I feel that Senior Brother Qi Yuan is a very good person.” Upon hearing that, Ling’e, who had just helped her senior brother stand up, looked at him.

The senior brother raised his eyebrows and the junior sister blinked. Everything was silent.

“Senior Brother, do you want me to apply medicine for you?”

“There’s no need. I can’t absorb it either. Ahem, I’ll go back to the Pill Chamber to cultivate in seclusion.”

Li Changshou sighed softly and made a white cloud. He lay on it and floated back to the Pill Chamber, not bothering to salvage his image.

After resolving that troublesome matter, Li Changshou reorganized his thoughts and stopped all the paper effigies. His attention returned to the ‘Sea God’ paper effigy that was hidden underground.

Later, he had to prepare a gift of gratitude for Elder Moon.

In the future, he should not use his master’s image to cause trouble. It would be safer to use some fabricated characters. Li Changshou used the Earth Escape technique to burrow out of the ground. He placed his attention on the paper effigy that was in the form of the Sea God and continued walking towards the Fire Cloud Cave.

The Fire Cloud Cave was hidden somewhere in the Middle Continent. It did not appear in front of people, just like the Three-Immortal Island.

He knew that the Three-Immortal Island was in the fog above the sea. If he did not have a way to enter, he would not be able to find any traces.

When Li Changshou first wanted to find the Fire Cloud Cave, he calculated with his fingers and knew that that place… could not be deduced with his limited deduction skills.

However, he now had the Heavenly Courts to back him up. It was not difficult for him to find out where the Fire Cloud Cave was.

He rode a cloud and traversed thousands of mountains and rivers.

After traveling for half a day, a vast lake appeared in front of him.

Li Changshou flew towards the sky of the Great Swamp. He turned around in the sky and fell towards the Great Swamp. Just as his body was about to land on the surface of the water, his immortal senses saw a wisp of smoke condense in the air.

Hence, he stopped and rode a cloud towards the cloud… That was the detailed method of finding the Fire Cloud Cave in the Heavenly Courts’ records.

Li Changshou flew to the cloud and felt that there were mysterious Dao runes in front of him. He heard the music played by string instruments in his ears, as if there was a hidden paradise ahead.

There seemed to be an invisible door in the clouds, causing Li Changshou to stop in his tracks.

Li Changshou said loudly, “The Heavenly Courts’ envoy is here on the orders of the Jade Emperor to pay a visit to our ancestors.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a chuckle in his heart. An Eight Trigrams disc appeared in front of him out of thin air. The eight circular rings on it rotated gently, and the lines carved on it flickered with dim light.

I can enter after it’s undone.

Li Changshou bowed and formed the Water-Fire Taiji with his left hand. He slowly pushed the Taiji Painting forward and placed it in the center of the Eight Trigrams disc.

Then, Yin and Yang circulated. The Eight Trigrams Disc began to flicker with light. Li Changshou added in his heart, I’m a disciple of Ren School, may I enter? The invisible door immediately disappeared, and a cave appeared in front of him. The cave was very deep, but it was brightly lit.

Li Changshou bowed again and walked into the cave with the generous gift that General Dongmu had prepared from the Heavenly Courts’ treasure vault.
