Chapter Seventy-two Searching for Mother

  ——————

  But Yang Miaojun was only two years old and was quite clever and spirited, and when she woke up, she didn't cry or make a fuss.

  Yang Miaojun grew up under the care of Huang Gunli.

  He was exceptionally talented and had a bottle of elixir left by Zhunti, so in just over 100 years he was able to practice the eight or nine mysterious arts to great perfection.

  Although his Taoist cultivation was not deep, his magical powers were profound, and his physical body was strong and sturdy, comparable to that of an ordinary treasure.

  For over a hundred years, Yang Miaojun had been diligently cultivating and never strayed far from the mountain cave. However, this also made her feel suffocated. Now that she has cultivated the Eight-Nine Mystical Arts to the realm of great completion, Yang Miaojun decided to venture out into the world.

  Yang Miaojun is over a hundred years old, but she is still curious about the world and has a childlike heart, traveling around and feeling curious about everything.

  That day, he arrived at the mouth of the irrigation canal and saw a slender-waisted divine dog fighting with a golden-eyed divine eagle. He was very curious, after all, he had never fought with anyone before, and wanted to gain some experience from their battle.

  In the end, the dog and the eagle fought each other to a draw, both were seriously injured, on the verge of collapse, exhaling more than inhaling.

  Yang Miaojun took out two elixirs and fed them to the dog and eagle. The elixir was highly effective, and in a short moment, the wounds of the two beasts healed quickly, leaving no scars behind.

  Yang Miao Jun was overjoyed and then wanted the two beasts to continue fighting for his own viewing pleasure, so that he could gain experience.

  The two beasts rolled their eyes, but seeing his appearance, they also knew that this person was not worldly. Touched by Yang Miao's rescue, the two beasts finally stayed by Yang Miao's side.

  From then on, he became a man, a dog, and an eagle traveling together. Along the way, some small monsters and beasts were easily solved by the dog and the eagle, while some big demons and ferocious beasts were killed one by one by Yang Miaojun, who had achieved great success in his eight-ninth mysterious skills, as well as the dog and the eagle, whose strength was not much different from his. As for those who truly possessed great magical powers, they all knew his identity and did not make things difficult for him.

  And Yang Miaojun had also been to many human tribes during his travels, where everyone had parents, and he himself was a human being. However, in his over 100 years of memories, there was never a concept of having parents.

  Therefore, Yang Miaojun traveled all the way, inquiring all the way. Some cultivators with low cultivation naturally did not know Yang Miaojun's origin and could not tell the truth. Those with high cultivation were deterred by Haotian's majesty and said they didn't know one after another.

  After traveling for many years, Yang Miaojun gained nothing about his own life, but he was a resolute person and did not give up.

  On this day, he arrived near Yuquan Mountain and heard from people nearby that there were immortals on Yuquan Mountain, so he planned to go up the mountain to ask.

  It turns out that the one living in Yuquan Mountain is none other than Yu Ding Zhen Ren, one of the twelve Golden Immortals of the Tianxian Sect. Yu Ding Zhen Ren was meditating when he suddenly had a vision, and immediately woke up. He calculated with his fingers, and a joyful thought arose in his heart: "I didn't expect that he still has a master-disciple relationship with me."

  Yu Ding Zhenren suddenly appeared outside the cave, and then stood up in a place where Yang Miaojun must pass through on his way up the mountain.

  Yang Miaojun, accompanied by a dog and an eagle, climbed the mountain with a carefree attitude. As soon as they reached the top of a hill, they saw a figure floating in mid-air, surrounded by a halo of light, carrying a long sword on his back, exuding an otherworldly aura.

  As soon as she saw the Taoist's attire, Yang Miaojun immediately knew that this person was the immortal who lived on this mountain. Overjoyed in her heart, she directly bowed and said, "Yang Miaojun pays respects to the immortal elder."

  Although she was delighted in her heart, Yang Miaojun did not hastily ask about the whereabouts of her parents, but instead waited for Yu Ding Zhenren to speak.

  Yu Ding Zhen Ren burst out laughing and said, "Hmmm, not bad. Little friend has come to Yu Quan Mountain, surely you have something on your mind?"

  Yang Miao Jun hastily said, "Immortal Elder indeed has a god-like foresight. This time when I came to the mountain to find Immortal Elder, there is indeed something that requires your help. I have been in this world for over a hundred years, but I still do not know where my parents are. Please tell me about my parents' whereabouts."

  Yang Miaojun was a bit nervous at this time, he knew that this time he might not get any news again, but he still held on to hope, although the hope was slim, it was better than despair.

  Yu Ding Zhen Ren naturally knew Yang Miao Jun's background, and after hearing the words, he stroked his beard and said, "Hmm, I'll tell you, but you have to agree to one thing from me."

  Yang Miaojun heard that Yu Ding Zhenren knew the news of his parents, and was overjoyed, so excited that he couldn't help but say: "Immortal Master, please speak, I will definitely agree. Whether it's one thing or ten things, a hundred things, even if it's going up Knife Mountain or down Fire Sea, I'll still agree."

  "Haha, actually this matter is simple, you just need to worship me as your master, I am a disciple under the seat of Yu Qing Shang Ren Yuan Shi Tian Zun, will you agree?"

  Yu Ding Zhenren was overjoyed in his heart. The more he looked at Yang Miao Jun, the more he liked her, with a smile all over his face and his whiskers curled up.

  "Uh..." Yang Miao Jun was stunned, never expecting that what Yu Ding Zhen Ren said would be like this. This was completely a joyful event, a great opportunity from heaven. Yang Miao Jun immediately knelt down and paid respects, performing the ritual of paying homage to one's master. "Disciple pays respects to revered master."

  "Ha ha, good! Master will now tell you about your family matters. Your mother was originally a Yao Ji fairy maiden, the younger sister of the Heavenly Emperor and a princess of the heavenly court. During a private descent to the mortal world, she fell in love with your father Yang Tianyou and gave birth to two sons and one daughter, violating the heavenly rules. Later, she was suppressed by your uncle under Peach Mountain as punishment. Your older brother Yang Jiao was rescued by Yun Zhongzi, the eldest disciple of the Intercepting Sect, and became his apprentice. As for your younger sister and father, it is said that your father self-destructed when the heavenly soldiers came to capture him, while your younger sister Yang Chan was rescued by a mysterious person."

  Yang Miaojun heard that her father had passed away, and she was heartbroken. When she learned that her mother was being pressed under the Peach Mountain as punishment, Yang Miaojun made up her mind to rescue her mother at all costs.

  "Thank you, Master, for telling me all this. I hope to rescue my mother as soon as possible and fulfill your wishes." Yang Miaojuan's eyes were firm, her fists clenched together, slightly trembling, as she bowed respectfully.

  *sigh*

  Yu Ding Zhen Ren saw him and sighed, but did not stop him. Instead, he said, "Go, hurry up and rescue your mother, then reunite with your big brother. However, the Peach Mountain has a mountain god guarding it, so don't be careless."

  "Yes, Master!" Yang Miaojun bowed deeply to Yu Ding Zhenren and then set off with the dog and eagle towards Taoshan.

  Yang Miao Jun had been practicing since childhood, with profound magical powers. She had mastered eight or nine mysterious skills and her Wind Movement Technique was also extremely fast.

  And that divine dog is no ordinary creature, it's the celestial hound, able to ride the clouds and drive the fog.

  As for that divine eagle, a divine bird of the same kind, it naturally possessed an extremely fast physical form. The man and two beasts all unfolded their physical forms, and like wind and lightning, they flew towards Peach Mountain.

  Yang Miaojun's heart was burning with anxiety, at this moment, he had never thought of his mother before, and he wished he could grow two more wings to rescue his suffering mother as soon as possible.

  In the rapid flight of one person and two beasts, they arrived at Peach Mountain in an instant. As soon as they arrived at Peach Mountain, Yang Miaojun sensed that blood connection of kinship, he knew that his mother was being suppressed under Peach Mountain.

  "Mother, your unfilial son has come to rescue you after more than a hundred years."

  Yang Miaojun clenched his fists tightly and flew up to the top of Peach Mountain, where he unleashed his Taoist magic, brewing it in his fists.

  "Who is this little scoundrel, daring to come here and make a racket?"

  Just as Yang Miaojun was about to rescue Yaoji, the mountain god of Taoshan suddenly appeared and saw Yang Miaojun, immediately shouting at him.

  "Hum, get out!"

  Yang Miaojun is now furious, his mother was suppressed in Taoshan for over a hundred years, suffering greatly, and had no ability to escape from Taoshan. These two mountain gods are still guarding here, making him extremely angry.

  "Drink."

  Without saying another word, Yang Miaojun immediately charged forward and attacked the two mountain deities.

  Both mountain gods have the cultivation of a Mysterious Immortal, and Yang Miaojun also has only the cultivation of a Mysterious Immortal, but his cultivation is one level lower than that of the two mountain gods. When facing one person, relying on his eight or nine mysterious skills, he can still gain the upper hand, but when facing two people, as soon as they clashed, he was immediately suppressed.

  "Up."

  At this moment, a dog and an eagle ambushed. The divine dog was as black as coal, its fur like silk, and with just one flash of movement it appeared behind a mountain god and bit down directly.

  "Hmph."

  The mountain god had not yet reacted when he was bitten by the divine dog on one arm, and a piece of flesh was gnawed off, unwilling to retreat.

  On the other side, the divine eagle soared into the sky like a dragon, circling high in the air, and then seized an opportunity to dive down suddenly, spreading its wings like a golden roc.

  "Ah..."

  The divine eagle's claw grasped the shoulder of another mountain god, and its beak pecked down, "Ka-cheng" sound, that mountain god's half body directly split open, internal organs all fell out.

  Two mountain deities with unsightly complexions converged, and the two of them used their magical powers to repair their tattered bodies. However, at this point, their combat strength was less than one-tenth of its original state, making them completely no match for Yang Miaojun. They had no choice but to seek help from the Heavenly Court.

  Yang Miaojun saw the two mountain gods standing by, but ignored them and rushed to the top of the mountain again. His whole body's aura suddenly surged, his body instantly swelling like a balloon, and in a short moment, he transformed into a giant hundreds of meters high. The two mountain gods were stunned, while the dog and eagle also couldn't help but gape.

  Yang Miao Jun transformed into a giant, with an overbearing aura that shook the air, his vital energy surging and churning like a mighty river, emitting a thunderous roar that converged on his fists.

  "Cheers!"

  A loud roar, like a dragon's chant, two fists strike down.

  "Hmm."

  The mountain top was directly blown to pieces by Yang Miaojun, but a transparent gas mask enveloped the lower half of the mountain. Even if Yang Miaojun used all his strength to display the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills, he couldn't destroy that gas mask.

  "Child, my child, is it you?"

  A sound full of surprise came from the belly of the mountain, its voice was joyful but also contained sorrow.

  Yang Miao Jun heard this and her whole body shook, she couldn't help but shed tears, tremblingly saying, "Mother, it's me, Miao Jun, I've come to save you."

  "Miao Jun, it's really Miao Jun! No, hurry up, hurry and leave, child! Your uncle must have already known about your arrival, he will definitely come to catch you himself! Hurry!" Yao Ji's words were filled with anxiety, worried about her child's safety.

  "No, Mother, the child will definitely save you, the child has already cultivated a great divine power and is not afraid of him." Yang Miao Jun's heart was fearless, but he couldn't blast open that aura shield, filling him with grief and indignation.

  "Child, hurry and leave, Mother is begging you. Although I have been trapped here for over a hundred years, I haven't suffered much hardship. But it's you, child, who has been fortunate to suffer for this hundred years. Hurry and leave, when you become a great deity in the future, come back and rescue me then."

  Yao Ji worried more about her children than herself and hastily asked Yang Miao Jun to escape from this place.

  "Mother, I'm late."

  Suddenly, another voice came from afar at this moment.

  Yang Miaojuan looked up and saw that the person who came was not as tall as herself, but had eight or nine points of resemblance with herself. She immediately knew who the person was and spoke out, "Big brother, I am Miaojuan."

  The newcomer was none other than Yang Jiao, who had grown up. The two brothers hugged each other, overjoyed and tearful.
