Chapter 84 The White Snake Returns Home
Zhongshan is the sacred site of Zhulong.
After thirty years, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing finally passed the Zhulong Trial.
To their amazement, every challenge in the Candle Dragon Trial was exactly as Xu Xian had described.
Xu Xian seems to have completely grasped the method of the Candle Dragon Trial and the key to breaking the deadlock.
"If it weren't for you, sir, neither of us would have been able to pass the first hurdle."
"That guy is really amazing—no, he's incredibly amazing!"
Bai Suzhen, her face flushed, flew into Zhulong's dojo with Xiaoqing.
"Hurry up and cultivate, because once you've succeeded, you'll need to find your husband."
Xiaoqing pouted: "I just hope he behaves himself and doesn't go around having affairs."
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing successfully completed the trials and arrived at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain, where they met the ancient deity Zhulong.
In Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing's eyes, the Candle Dragon was no longer in its true dragon form, but existed in a strange state.
It's as if it's supporting the whole world, keeping it running normally.
Zhulong sensed Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing and opened its eyes.
In an instant, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing felt as if they were in a vast and desolate world.
There is endless light here, and also endless emptiness.
"Legend has it that when the Zhulong opens its eyes, it's daytime, and when it closes its eyes, it's nighttime. Is that really true?"
Bai Suzhen sighed, then pulled Xiaoqing and bowed deeply.
Zhulong seems to be observing Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing.
After a long while, an aged voice spoke: "You have passed the trial and can now become my disciples."
Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing felt as if countless pieces of information were bursting open in their minds.
The methods of cultivation, unparalleled supernatural powers, and the rules governing heaven and earth —
All sorts of information flooded Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing's minds.
The two immediately sat cross-legged and began to cultivate quietly.
There is no cold or heat within Zhongshan Mountain.
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing cultivated their own paths, and before they knew it, several decades had passed.
In their spare time, the two also tried to communicate with Zhulong.
Zhulong was very indifferent and initially barely responded to anything Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing said.
It wasn't until decades later that they were finally able to communicate a few words, albeit with some difficulty.
Today, Bai Suzhen has reached level 67 and has become a transcendent being.
Xiaoqing has also reached level 60, making her the strongest among the demon kings.
At one point, Zhulong closed his eyes.
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing immediately felt themselves plunged into endless darkness.
This darkness is not visual darkness, but the supreme law.
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing could no longer sense their own magical power or perceive the laws of heaven and earth.
It was as if it were completely blocked off.
Confused, the two could only call upon Zhulong for help.
A moment later, a serious voice came from behind.
"You two possess the bloodline of true dragons and are able to activate the trial."
"But in doing so, you have abandoned your origins."
"To truly break free from the shackles of heaven and earth, one must return to the origin."
"I have established new rules for the world for the two of you."
"Break the rules here, and you can return to the origin."
Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing immediately sat down cross-legged and carefully sensed the rules around them.
After a long time, Bai Suzhen revealed her true form.
A white dragon radiating golden light illuminated the entire dark land.
Seeing this, Xiaoqing asked with delight, "Sister, can you break the rules here now?"
Bai Suzhen, in her white dragon form, investigated for a long time before finally shaking her head: "It's not possible yet."
She floated quietly in mid-air, slowly absorbing the rules of this place.
"Sister, you mustn't! The rules here erode everything and can completely suppress our cultivation. If we rashly activate the rules, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
as predicted.
Before Xiaoqing could finish speaking, countless black wisps of energy appeared around Bai Suzhen's body.
This caused countless cracks to appear on her white dragon body instantly, with scales and flesh constantly peeling off.
Xiaoqing was terrified and transformed into a green dragon to support Bai Suzhen.
"Xiao Qing, don't move, I'm fine."
Bai Suzhen immediately comforted Xiaoqing, while shaking her body to allow her flesh and scales to peel off rapidly.
Several days later, a mysterious magical power rose up.
Bai Suzhen did indeed break some of the rules here.
Unfortunately, her true dragon root has also been completely stripped away.
Currently, she can only hover in mid-air in her dragon form.
Bai Suzhen, sensing her own condition, finally confirmed: "Xiaoqing, do your best to absorb the rules here, sever our true dragon roots, and return to our origin!"
"yes!"
Xiaoqing's feelings for Bai Suzhen were extraordinary, so she naturally took immediate action.
Bai Suzhen did not hesitate and also absorbed the laws of this place with the roots of the white dragon.
After a long while, a violent roar suddenly erupted from this place, and countless mysterious magical powers and rules rose up.
Snapped!
The pitch-black world shattered, and two giant snakes, one white and one green, soared into the sky!
It was Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing!
At this point, the two had recovered their snake-like origins, but their cultivation, magical abilities, fortune, and comprehension had all reached a new level.
Bai Suzhen has already reached level 68, which is considered a powerful figure even among beings who have transcended the mortal realm.
Xiaoqing successfully reached level 61, truly transcending the ordinary and entering sainthood!
The two have completed their cultivation!
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing gracefully arrived before Zhulong and bowed in gratitude.
Zhulong didn't speak, but just watched the two of them quietly.
After a long while, a dragon scale floated into Xiao Qing's hand.
Another dragon whisker fell into Bai Suzhen's hands.
"Since you two have completed your cultivation, I will accept you as my disciples."
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing were overjoyed, bowed down and knelt in worship, calling her Master.
"Dragon scales and whiskers belong to my own body; they are extremely powerful treasures in themselves. With a little refinement, they could even surpass your imagination. Take care."
After Zhulong finished speaking, his figure disappeared into Zhongshan Mountain, becoming ethereal and indistinct.
It seems impossible to investigate further.
Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing knelt outside Zhongshan for several months, holding dragon scales and dragon whiskers.
Only when the entire Zhongshan Mountain had become nothingness did the two decide to leave.
Bai Suzhen took Xiaoqing to the top of Zhongshan Mountain to explore the surrounding area.
Bai Suzhen's eyes revealed an irrepressible look of anticipation: "It's been a hundred years, I really miss my husband."
Xiaoqing pouted, "I wonder how that guy is doing? Does he miss us? Speaking of which, that guy is really annoying, he didn't even tell us where to look for him."
Let's go!
Bai Suzhen pulled Xiaoqing along, about to fly towards the place where she and Xu Xian parted ways.
At one moment, she had a sudden thought and felt an extremely familiar fluctuation outside Zhongshan.
Friendly and powerful.
This caused Bai Suzhen to unconsciously stiffen, and a surge of warmth welled up in her heart.
Standing atop Zhongshan Mountain, she parted the surrounding clouds and laws, and indeed saw a familiar figure.
It was Xu Xian!
With tears welling in her eyes, Bai Suzhen murmured, "My lord—"
Xiaoqing was equally delighted, but she also noticed the Third Holy Mother beside Xu Xian.
She pouted and muttered under her breath, "That pervert is really bad, he couldn't resist after only a hundred years."
When Xu Xian heard Bai Suzhen calling out, he finally felt relieved.
He arrived gracefully, embraced Bai Suzhen, and gave her a passionate kiss.
Although Bai Suzhen blushed, she showed no embarrassment in her actions and kissed him back.
This surprised Xu Xian somewhat.
"My wife has become bolder."
Bai Suzhen nestled in Xu Xian's arms and whispered, "Because we haven't seen each other for a hundred years, I miss my husband so much."
Xu Xian held Bai Suzhen in his arms, his heart filled with warmth: "I miss my wife too."
After enjoying the view for a while, Bai Suzhen looked at the Third Holy Mother and said with a smile, "This younger sister is very pretty, and she looks very familiar."
The Third Holy Mother also flew to Bai Suzhen's side, smiling and saying, "Greetings, elder sister~"
'
The two women greeted him with smiles, which made Xu Xian feel rather uncomfortable.
Such things were common in ancient times, but Xu Xian was, after all, a modern man, and he really didn't know how to handle this chaotic situation.
He released Bai Suzhen, looking embarrassed. "Um, you guys talk first, I... I'll go check on Xiaoqing."
Having said that, he flew away as if fleeing to Xiaoqing's side, leaving only Bai Suzhen and the Third Holy Mother there.
Xiaoqing looked at Xu Xian with a hint of disdain in her eyes: "You're such a coward, you dare to do it but not admit it!"
"You know nothing! Tell me about your cultivation achievements."
"snort!"
Xiaoqing snorted, but still told Xu Xian about their cultivation process in detail.
Xu Xian exclaimed in admiration, "Xiaoqing has already transcended the mortal realm! Amazing!"
"That's right! Be nicer to your sister Xiaoqing from now on, you hear me? Sister Xiaoqing will protect you."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Xu Xian complimented Xiaoqing a couple of times, making her feel quite flattered.
Bai Suzhen and the Third Holy Mother were whispering to each other in the distance, and no one knew what they were talking about.
Xu Xian could only see Bai Suzhen bowing to the Third Holy Mother.
This infuriated Xiaoqing: "Hey, hey, hey, doesn't that guy even know what 'first come, first served' means? He doesn't even humble himself in front of my sister, he actually makes my sister bow to him?"
Xu Xian wasn't surprised: "My wife has probably figured it out. The bowing now has nothing to do with me, but rather with a wandering immortal in the wilderness worshipping the gods."
Xiaoqing looked puzzled: "What do you mean by worshipping gods? Is your concubine a celestial deity? That's impossible!"
"The Goddess of Mount Hua, the Third Holy Mother".
"Who?!"
Xiaoqing stared intently at the Third Holy Mother and indeed discovered something amiss.
"The main deity of Mount Hua, the niece of the Jade Emperor, and the sister of Erlang Shen—are you out of your mind?"
Xu Xian shook his head indifferently: "I'm still alive, aren't I?"
"You're something else—oh, even the Third Holy Mother bowed to my sister, and it was a grand bow at that."
Sure enough, at Bai Suzhen's place, the Third Holy Mother was respectfully bowing to Bai Suzhen and saying, "Sister."
Then, the two of them came to Xu Xian together.
Xu Xian laughed and asked, "Is it resolved?"
Bai Suzhen nodded and said, "It's resolved!"
"Hehe, that's good."
Xu Xian raised the Jade Terrace Golden Cloud, supporting Bai Suzhen and the other two, and said, "I have a Taoist temple in Beiju Luzhou, and that will be our home."
The three of them, Bai Suzhen and the others, all looked on with anticipation: "Alright, let's go home!"
