Chapter 312 Why Don’t You Die?
Bai Tian looked at the young man and sighed sincerely, he looked so much like Ji Xuan!
Back then, when I first saw Ji Xuan during the day, he looked very similar to Ji Qingyang in front of me.
I didn't expect to run into Ji Xuan's son here...
Seeing Bai Tian didn't speak, Ji Qingyang frowned: "You haven't told me who you are yet."
Bai Tian opened his mouth to respond, but the blue bird uttered a sharp sound: "Haotian, Haotian."
Bai Tian was quite surprised and said with a smile: "Big Blue Bird, you can talk now."
"Qingluan, my name is Qingluan." The big blue bird flapped its wings excitedly and spoke a bit like a parrot.
Ji Qingyang was stunned, and looked at Bai Tian in disbelief: "You, you are Haotian? The immortal Haotian?"
Bai Tian shrugged slightly: "I think so, your father told you?"
After receiving the confirmation, Ji Qingyang was immediately excited and wanted to run forward. But then he realized that he was still on Qingluan's back, so he had to stop.
"My father told me that Haotian lives forever! You, you are really still alive. It's incredible."
Bai Tian flew over and landed beside Ji Qingyang: "Big Blue Bird...Oh Qingluan, go back first."
Qingluan continued to fly towards the Xitian tribe, while Bai Tian asked Ji Qingyang, "Has your father successfully built Yuancheng?"
"It's done, it's done a long time ago. My father is now the master of three cities." Ji Qingyang stared at Bai Tian with shining eyes.
Bai Tian sighed inwardly. This meant that many years had passed since Ji Xuan's scheduled battle with Chi You. It was very likely that Shao Dian and the others were no longer around...
Bai Tian asked again, "How did you get here from Yancheng?"
"Because this year I'm in charge of delivering the letters... Oh, you might not know this, but there's a Heavenly Palace here that's always connected to the Taoist sect. Basically, there's a letter every month... Um, do you know what a letter is? It's just writing down what you want to say on paper..."
Bai Tian tilted his head and asked: "Who is the leader of the Taoist sect now?"
Ji Qingyang replied: "It's Cangjie!"
Bai Tian was stunned: "Cang Jie should still be very young, right?"
"He was very young, only thirty years old." Ji Qingyang held his head high. "But Cangjie was very powerful. He created a complete cultivation system at the age of twenty and wrote many books. Cangjie also created a cultivation method called grammar."
"I heard that Cangjie or Haotian... Oh, he is your disciple."
Bai Tian was a little surprised. If Cangjie was thirty years old, it meant that his time in Yaochi was not particularly long, only about ten years.
In just over a decade, the Xitian tribe has undergone tremendous changes, which is truly incredible.
Having said that, this kid Cangjie is really capable. He can actually take over Donghuang's position.
Ji Qingyang continued excitedly, "Let me tell you, who's the most powerful now? It's not my father, it's Dong Huang! Dong Huang is the most powerful. I heard they say Dong Huang is almost a hundred years old. A hundred years old, that's amazing."
"You might not know this, but my father had a great war with Chi You of Black Sky City. It lasted almost a year and was incredibly fierce. I heard people say that the sky cracked and the mountains collapsed... Unfortunately, I was just born at that time and didn't understand anything."
"Also, I heard they say there's a very powerful beast in our Central Plains that even the Qilin King can't defeat... Do you know the Qilin King? I think his name is Heiye, and he has a son..."
"Let me tell you, when I was a kid, there was a terrifying beast tide that almost swallowed up Yancheng. Many people died..."
Amid Ji Qingyang's chattering, Qingluan quickly flew to the earthen palace behind the Xitian tribe.
Ji Qingyang and Bai Tian walked in together, talking nonstop as they walked. They talked a lot.
Of course, I'm happy to listen to him during the day, so I don't have to ask him later...
Actually, the Earth Palace only has a wall in front made of mud, and the houses behind it are still built with wood. Of course, the structure of the houses is quite good.
As the two were walking in, a man came out. Seeing the daylight, the man rubbed his eyes, then turned and ran in, shouting, "Queen Mother, Queen Mother..."
It seems that Xixi is still alive!
When Bai Tian and Ji Qingyang walked to the middle hall, Xixi came in from the side door.
Xixi had aged a bit, but not much had changed. Apparently, her elixir of immortality had worked.
"Haotian..." Xixi's lips trembled, and a smile appeared on her old face.
Bai Tian nodded slightly: "It seems that I haven't been down here for more than ten years?"
"Exactly fifteen years." Xixi answered softly.
Fifteen years, time flies by...
Bai Tian sighed softly, "Why didn't you move the Heaven Palace up there?"
Xixi explained, "I've discussed this with the Dao Sect, and they feel it's not the right time yet... Is this Ji Xuanyuan's son?"
Ji Qingyang was sensible and quickly greeted him, then he tactfully left.
After sitting down, Xixi sighed and said, "The Taoists are saying that cultivation can't bring longevity after all, and the Heavenly Court shouldn't be separated from the tribe."
"After considering it, I felt their idea was sound, so I didn't move. Although the tribe has developed well in recent years, there have been many conflicts caused by cultivation, and each dispute has been serious."
Bai Tian had actually expected this. The conflict between cultivation and lifespan is really huge.
If high cultivation does not bring longevity, people with cultivation will be more likely to indulge themselves, and it will be easier for corruption to arise in people's hearts.
I think it's not just the Xitian tribe that's facing the same problem, Yancheng is also facing the same problem...
I talked with Xixi for a long time during the day, and also learned some information about Yancheng from Xixi.
After that, Bai Tian got up and left.
Xixi couldn't help but ask: "Haotian, do you want to go back to the east?"
Bai Tian shook his head: "No, I will continue to go west, then north, and south..."
Xixi was stunned: "Why?"
Bai Tian smiled and said, "This is my mission. I need to measure this world first before I can do more. Xixi, this world is very big. What you know now is only a very small part of it."
"I'm also trying to figure out how to deal with the issues of cultivation and longevity, but I haven't figured it out yet. But the world's pace can't stop because of this. I still have a lot to do."
Although Xixi didn't quite understand what was said, she nodded: "Haotian, I hope I can see you again in the future..."
Bai Tian didn't say anything more, gave her a smile, then turned and walked out.
It was clear during the day that Xixi wasn't truly immortal; her elixir of immortality only slightly slowed her aging...
When Bai Tian walked outside, Ji Qingyang came running over again: "Haotian Haotian, is the Queen Mother your wife?"
Bai Tianyi whipped: "Little brat, don't talk nonsense."
Ji Qingyang smiled bitterly and whispered, "Haotian, I just want to know why you don't die?"
