Chapter 29, The Future Star Mansion Tribulation, Capturing the Thief

  "Master!"

  Hong Haier heard what Wudang Shengmu said, but he was a bit puzzled and wanted to ask for clarification, only to find that the person had already left.

  Looking up, there was nothing in front of me. However, on the side where the Holy Mother had sat, there were two books placed neatly on top of each other.

  "This is the 'Shangqing Secret Talisman', it was your master's treasure, I'll leave it with you today. That little fox's cooking is quite tasty, I suppose she also got the alchemical scriptures I left in Suolongjing? Leave one volume of 'Shangqing Alchemy' and have you teach it to her."

  A voice entered Hong Haier and Hu Qiuyue's ears, causing both of their expressions to become exceptionally rich.

  Especially Hu Qiuyue, with a devout expression, knelt on the ground and bowed three times towards the place where the fake Holy Mother had just sat, saying: "Disciple Hu Qiuyue thanks Master for bestowing the Dharma."

  Hong Haier's heart was also quite unsettled at this moment, but it wasn't because he had suddenly been imparted the "Shangqing Secret Scripture". Rather, it was because he had heard that the scripture originally belonged to his master's ancestor.

  This represents that the Tongtian Sect Master, who has been trapped in the Biyou Palace on the Golden Turtle Island for 33 days, may have already noticed himself. After all, a saint's divine powers can penetrate the heavens and the earth, and with just one thought, he can freely roam the chaos and observe the three realms.

  Their special circumstances, even those trump cards, would they have been exposed to the eyes of those reclusive Heavenly Dao Saints? To know, it seems that Zhenyuanzi also discovered something, what about those higher-level saints? If Tongtian Sect Master could calculate, then what about Taichang Taishang Daoren who was even more profound in his dao? And what about the unfathomable Western Pure Land's Amitabha Buddha?

  Thinking of Hong Haier, he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. Although he didn't know how the Heavenly Saint calculated things, if he were to let the saint find out that he might be an anomaly of the Heavenly Way, or even more likely, calculate his transmigrated identity, it was estimated that even the Heavenly Way would not mind taking action to crush this insignificant ant.

  "Clang! Clang!" At this time, Little Qing, who was standing beside him, discovered Hong Haier's abnormality and worriedly reached out to pull the hem of his clothes.

  "Hey!" Feeling Xiao Qing's call, Hong Haier came back to his senses, smiled and found that the three people at the table were looking at him with concern, warming his heart.

  Some forced a smile: "Nothing's wrong, why are you all staring at me? Come on, let's eat."

  After finishing speaking, he was the first to pick up his rice bowl and slowly started eating a pile of small dim sum from the food box.

  "Hmm!" The calf and Qing'er saw that Hong Haier was fine, so they also burst out laughing and started devouring the delicious food on the table.

  Only Hu Qiuyue's eyes flashed with a hint of unusual color, and then she didn't make another sound. The breakfast was somewhat gloomy...

  In the secret room, Hong Haier sat quietly on the jade bed, carefully sensing that there were faint and imperceptible breaths circulating within his body.

  From the He Shi Bi worn on his chest, a warm and subtle power quietly entered Hong Haier's body.

  If it weren't for the reminder from the Bodhisattva on that day, perhaps Red Boy would have taken many more years to discover.

  In that He Shi Bi, there was a strange power that quietly and slowly helped Hong Haier refine the accumulated fire spirit in his body.

  It was like pulling out silk threads or peeling off a cocoon, perhaps starting from the Wu Zongguan Temple, or maybe it started when he got the He Shi Bi. But Hong Haier became more curious about that small black seal.

  At this moment, in Hong Haier's divine thought, a tiny thread of magical power was discovered, so small that it was not detected, born from the He Shi Bi, like a silk thread, pulling the fire spirit power inside Hong Haier's body.

  According to past experience, if someone tries to refine that fire spirit power, they will definitely encounter fierce resistance. The Holy Mother is a good example of this. However, at this moment, the huge ball of fire spirit power inside Hong Haier's body did not react in the slightest.

  Even when enveloped by the powerful aura emanating from the Heirloom of the Wang Clan, there were faint ripples that emerged, as if he trusted that aura completely and felt extremely comfortable.

  This! The Red Boy stared at the fiery spiritual energy within his body, which was as fierce as the sun, and was extremely puzzled. What was hidden in its deepest part? Was it the former Holy Infant?

  But Hong Haier's divine sense was too weak, and he couldn't see through the violent fire yuan force to look inside. He could only watch as strands of fire spirit energy were drawn out from that "sun" and flowed towards the Heshi pendant on his chest along the "silk thread".

  At the same time, a faintly scorching power fed back from the He Shi Bi, spreading into Hong Hai Er's limbs and nourishing his physical body.

  What is this? Hong Haier looked at the light spots that scattered into his body, but he was somewhat puzzled. The magical power seemed to be weaker than what he had extracted from his dantian by more than one level, and it also contained other things.

  However, Hong Haier's Taoist practice was low-key and couldn't be seen by others. Moreover, over the past few months, he could feel that his body was developing in a good direction.

  "Ah!"

  The little boy opened his eyes, but they were filled with confusion. He was secretly thinking about the Hua Shi pendant hanging around his neck, wondering what it actually was. Although everyone knew it had something to do with Feng Zu, no one seemed to be clear about its special effects or why it couldn't be refined by anyone.

  Thinking of this, Hong Haier reached out and touched the seal, letting out a soft sigh, with an inexplicable emotion that couldn't be shaken off.

  "Ding!"

  A voice rang out, and Hong Haier woke up with a start. He then lifted his head, picked up a small bell from the ground beside him, and a familiar business card appeared in his ear.

  "Huh?"

  Hong Haier heard this and slightly furrowed his brow, after a brief silence, he flashed out of sight into the secret room.

  "Here......" Hong Haier appeared with a puzzled face under a cliff at the back mountain of his own cave mansion.

  "Holy Infant!" "Great King!"

  Hu Qiuyue and Xiao Niu'er were initially startled, but upon seeing who it was, they became overjoyed and walked over.

  "Your Majesty, there is a spring in the cold pond that seems to be connected to somewhere else. The little thief who stole food may be there." Little Bull walked up to Red Boy and whispered.

  It turned out that there were often food losses in the dry pine valley, but a group of little monsters didn't care, thinking that the greedy guy had eaten it secretly, and besides, the two big kings had a history.

  But after Hu Qiuyue arrived at Ku Song Gou, she took charge of the kitchen here. Hu Qiuyue was a clever person, otherwise how could he escape from the old cunning Bai Lu Jing's hands. After a period of time, some clues were found, and there was a guy who came and went without a trace, often sneaking into the kitchen to steal food, and often leaving water marks.

  Huoyun Cave was originally located next to the dry pine stream, and it was obvious that there was a water monster lurking around. However, if someone could freely enter and exit Huoyun Cave without being detected, then things wouldn't be so simple. It's likely that the thief is hiding inside Huoyun Cave. Therefore, Hu Qiuyue ordered people to secretly patrol the area, but didn't expect to find anything here.

  "Is it here?"

  The little red boy turned his head and slightly nodded at the two of them, then turned his head to gaze into the depths of the cliff.

  All that was seen was that the cliff below originally had a cold pool, but now it has been drained, revealing the muddy bottom and wet stone blocks. At the deepest part of the cold pool, there is a spring eye, with a few water flowers gushing out, and some faint red light coming from the depths, looking extremely strange and eerie.

  "What is that?" The Red Boy felt the red light was somewhat familiar, although he had never seen it before. For some reason, he felt a soft call flying out from the spring and falling into his mind.

  "It feels so terrifying."

  A little cow beside him, however, was somewhat timid and hid behind Hu Qiuyue's back, revealing half of his face as he gazed towards the Cold Pond.

  "Coward!" Hu Qiuyue saw this and scolded in a low voice. Then she turned her head towards the depths of the cold pond.

  During this period, Hong Haier taught Dan Dao, and Hu Qiuyue's Taoism also rose with the tide. He had already advanced to the Xuanxian realm half a month ago, becoming the first master in Kusongjian except for Xiaoqing. Hu Qiuyue believed that now he could definitely beat that guy to the ground if they met again.

  But several months passed, and Hu Qiuyue couldn't understand Hong Haier even more. She couldn't figure out what this extraordinary-looking man in front of her was thinking at all. Often some simple ideas would make people cry and laugh, yet they were unexpected, and even one sentence could bring great benefits.

  "Ah!" Thinking of this, Hu Qiuyue's eyes were somewhat complicated, both disgusted and revered, looking at the back of that person.

  "What's going on?" Hong Haier was shocked at this moment, because a kind of inexplicable attraction came from the spring eye and became even stronger.

  "How ridiculous!" Hong Haier saw this, but he let out a cold snort, stretched out his hand and beckoned, a red-tasseled spear about one zhang long appeared in his hand, and with a flash of his body, he jumped down into the icy pool, heading towards the spring. He didn't believe it, this Fire Cloud Cave was personally arranged by his own father, the king, how could there be any danger?

  "Sheng ying!" Seeing the red boy move, Hu Qiuyue cried out.

  Unfortunately, Hong Haier did not turn around and walked straight to the spring eye, took a deep dive and jumped in.

  "Hum!"

  A flash of red light flashed, but it was a surprise that Hu Qiuyue hurried forward, wanting to reach out and grab the sinking figure.

  "Hiss!" A tens of meters long green dragon descended from the sky and rapidly rushed towards the spring.

  "Boom!"

  Whether it was Hu Qiuyue or Qinglong, they were all blocked by a force at the mouth of the spring.

  "Wow!" "Holy infant!"

  Everyone was shocked and pale, took out their own magic weapons and struck the spring eye, but without exception, they were all bounced back...
