Can't Stand This Lousy Jie Sect Anymore Chapter 175 - 157 Red Cloud: I'll Rely on Fellow Daoist in t

Seeing the "Master" sneaking away, Yu Yuan did not pursue.

He only had a short ti left in this ti-space, not a mont to waste.

Although he wanted to protect her while she was weak, changing her fate and preventing her from becoming a disciple of the Sect Hierarch Tongtian would truly be a loss.

Moreover, he had just obtained the exact location of the Red Cloud Ancestor.

The long-desired target was nearby, and he naturally wanted to take a look.

Even though he wasn't qualified to compete for the Hongng Purple Qi now, it wouldn't hurt to scope out the place and confirm what the target looked like.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to dig out the unknown Spirit Root in the valley and stuff it into his Qiankun Ruyi Bag.

After all, this was the residence of the "Master" before her Transformation, and he couldn't let it fall into chaos due to Da Pan and the others.

Then, he strode off in the southeast direction.

Watching him take each step, shrinking thousands of mountains and crossing rivers, those Witch Clan warriors who had doubted his identity were montarily dumbfounded.

This was clearly Houtu's Innate Divine Ability of the Witch Clan—Shrinking Land into Inches!

In this era, shortly after Zixiao Palace comnced its teachings, all races of Primordial mostly relied on their Innate Divine Abilities to survive.

The Witch Clan was no exception.

Aside from their naturally strong bodies, they also mastered various incredible Divine Skills.

And the Divine Skills mastered by each tribe of the Witch Clan depended on the Ancestor Witch they worshipped.

Speaking of the Houtu tribe, their Innate Divine Abilities were mostly related to the earth.

Feet on the ground, Divine Power inexhaustible!

That refers to the Great Witches of the Houtu tribe.

This was also one of the reasons the Witch Clan quickly rose to power and dominated the Primordial Land after the battle of the three tribes.

However, after Taoist Ancestor opened the teachings at Zixiao Palace and the Dao of Xuann spread throughout Primordial, the situation changed completely.

Those outstanding Innate Divine Abilities of the various races in Primordial could almost all find corresponding Spells in the Dao of Xuann.

Thus, after the three lectures at Zixiao Palace, nurous Immortal Gods who mastered Xuann Dao Techniques erged, causing many races that relied on Innate Divine Abilities to suffer.

Can you compress land to inches? Watch my Imasurable Distances!

You can also perform Fatian Xiangdi? Don't worry, I have my own Primordial Spirit Dharma Form!

Wait, you can also do Yin and Yang Dual Cultivation? Well... how about this, what do you think?

...

Yu Yuan was unaware of what the Witch Clan warriors like Da Pan were thinking.

At this mont, he was focused on reaching Dawn Dew Valley as quickly as possible to et the Red Cloud Ancestor.

Thirty thousand li was not considered far.

Especially since he used the pure Witch Clan Divine Skill, Shrinking Land into Inches, and it only took him about five monts to cover roughly thirty thousand li.

However, he didn't see the so-called Dawn Dew Valley but instead saw three dark fissures on the ground, each not wider than two hundred li and as deep as tens of thousands of Zhang, extending straight eastward until they vanished at the end of the land.

Looking down from the sky, those fissures resembled soone forcefully drawing three strokes with an ink-dipped brush on white paper.

But after careful observation, Yu Yuan felt these three fissures combined seed more like a scratch mark.

He just didn't know whose claw was so huge, one fingertip alone being over two hundred li thick.

Above the fissures in the Heavenly Vault, there were also web-like black cracks, with threads of Chaotic Qi erging from them, thunderously roaring.

The Spiritual Energy between Heaven and Earth was surging violently like roaring waves or a fierce hurricane sweeping in all directions.

Clearly, a fierce magical battle had occurred here.

But Yu Yuan saw no combatants, only a few Immortal Gods cowering and shivering in obscure locations among the undulating peaks below.

Yu Yuan asked several Immortal Gods but found them all terrified by the spectacle of the great powers battling; they were so scared, they didn't even know what had happened.

With no other option, he could only wander around aimlessly, hoping as if by chance, like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead rat, to choose a direction and swiftly proceed.

He hadn't gone far when suddenly, an invigorating fragrance wafted from a valley ahead.

Is this... the scent of liquor?

A flash of insight crossed his mind, and extending his Divine Thought toward that valley, he imdiately spotted a large troop of monkeys inside.

These monkeys were grouped together, so in thousands and so in hundreds, collectively likely numbering in the tens of thousands.

Monkey Valley!

Yu Yuan rembered Da Pan ntioning he had seen Red Cloud Ancestor here.

So, could he have co here after the battle?

With his heart slightly stirred, Yu Yuan concealed his aura and silently approached within Monkey Valley.

He wasn't sure if it was his good fortune or if it was destined for them to et here.

After arriving in Monkey Valley, he soon spotted an old Daoist planting a tree in a secluded corner.

The old Daoist was dressed in a red Daoist robe embroidered with cloud patterns, his hair and beard both white, his complexion rosy, embodying an air of immortal charm and Daoist grace.

The small tree he was planting was not ordinary either; it shimred with Seven-colored Mists, its roots seemingly alive, spreading deeply into the crevices of the rocks.

The tree was no taller than seven feet with a trunk only about three feet thick, but it resembled a coiling dragon, stretching and coiling towards the sky, its bark split open like dragon scales.

Its lush green leaves were layered like a splendid canopy.

The Seven-colored Mists were emanating from these leaves.

Judging by the shape of the leaves, Yu Yuan was certain this was a tea tree.

"Do you recognize this Innate Spirit Root?"

The Daoist saw Yu Yuan appear in the valley and was not surprised. He smiled and asked kindly.

His voice was gentle and firm, subtly revealing a hint of curiosity but no hint of the vigilance and caution that should have been present.

Yu Yuan had not seen him before, but he could guess a thing or two.

He pondered slightly and then nodded, saying, "That must be the Enlightennt Tea Tree, right?"

"Exactly, fellow Daoist has good eyesight!"

The Daoist openly nodded in acknowledgnt, then took out a red-skinned gourd, opened the mouth of the gourd, and poured clear liquor onto the roots of the Enlightennt Tea Tree.

A rich fragrance imdiately dispersed into the air.

Seeing the red-skinned gourd, Yu Yuan was certain of the Daoist's identity. T*h@is tra!nsla tio$n is p owe!re@d- by the re^a$de@rs! at *..

At this mont, after the Daoist had watered the Enlightennt Tea Tree, he lifted the gourd to his mouth for a swig and then, looking at Yu Yuan, smiled and said, "I noticed that fellow Daoist used the Shrinking Land into Inches Divine Power when you ca here; you must be a Great Witch from the Houtu Clan, right?"

Yu Yuan knew that he was mistaken for a Great Witch from the Witch Clan.

He didn't bother to correct it and nodded slightly, saying, "I am indeed a Great Witch from the Houtu Clan, just call Da Pan."

"Indeed."

The Daoist, seeing his guess confird, cheerfully said: "I am the Red Cloud Daoist from Zixiao Palace, and I have known the Houtu Ancestor Witch for a long ti.

I know your Witch Clan needs to gather Spiritual dicine and Spirit Fruit to refine the body, but this Enlightennt Tea Tree is still just a sapling right now. I wonder if fellow Daoist could do a small favor and let it continue to grow here until it matures before harvesting?"

Yu Yuan had been curious about him planting the tree and seized the opportunity to ask, "Since the Enlightennt Tea Tree is with you, why not move it to your own cave mansion? Why plant it here in Monkey Valley?"

Red Cloud Ancestor shook his head, helplessly said: "I indeed wanted to move it, but this Enlightennt Tea Tree's Dao has not fully ford yet, it still needs to absorb the unique Spiritual Energy of the Earth Veins from this Wuyi Mountain Range to form its own Dao...

You from the Witch Clan do not cultivate the Primordial Spirit, so you might not understand this.

In short, this Enlightennt Tea Tree needs to stay here, if moved, this Spirit Root would be wasted... Do you understand now?"

Yu Yuan nodded, and curiously said: "If you plant it here, even if I don't dig it up, wouldn't others?"

"Don't worry, I will now set up a Cloud Concealing Formation to hide this Enlightennt Tea Tree..."

Red Cloud Ancestor said this while throwing out several small triangular flags.

In the blink of an eye, a formation had already taken shape.

The Enlightennt Tea Tree along with the surrounding space of hundreds of feet disappeared completely, as if directly erased, and even with Yu Yuan's Dao Xing, he could not detect any anomalies.

Red Cloud Ancestor then said: "Now, apart from the two of us, no one else knows its whereabouts... Fellow Daoist, you must rember the location of this Enlightennt Tea Tree, co to harvest it after about ten Yuanhui."

Yu Yuan was stunned.

"You an... after this Enlightennt Tea Tree matures, let harvest it? You don't want it yourself?"

"Of course, I also want it. However..."

Red Cloud Ancestor said a bit sheepishly: "I enjoy drinking quite a bit; getting drunk for thousands of years is a common occurrence for . Many of the Spiritual dicines and Spirit Fruits that I've hidden away are often forgotten and ended up rotting away, utterly wasted.

To avoid such a situation happening again, I've decided to find a trustworthy fellow Daoist to share the hiding task whenever I hide things in the future.

Fellow Daoist, being a Great Witch from the Houtu Clan, I feel very reassured entrusting this Innate Spirit Root to you."

Saying this, he passed a small triangular flag over, and smiled: "If by that ti I haven't co to collect the Enlightennt Tea, I'd trouble fellow Daoist to help collect it.

Then you can keep seventy percent for yourself, just send thirty percent to store with your Ancestor Witch, and whenever I rember, I'll go to Buzhou Mountain to ask her for it...

Of course, if I co to collect it myself, I will also leave thirty percent for you."

With such a good deal coming his way, Yu Yuan had no reason to refuse.

Seeing him accept the small triangular flag, Red Jade Ancestor smiled and said: "I'll rely on fellow Daoist in the future then."

Yu Yuan nodded slightly, yet couldn't help but inwardly sigh in amazent.

This Red Cloud Ancestor was either too wealthy, not really caring about the Enlightennt Tea Tree; or too carefree, completely oblivious to the dangers of the world!

Or perhaps he had both attributes!

Otherwise, how could one consider sharing the hiding of treasures with others?

And even with soone he had t only once!

Isn't he afraid of being tricked?

Or has he reached a level of fortune where even being tricked doesn't matter to him?

Considering what he said earlier, this is indeed very likely!

Who knows how many treasures are hidden inside his Fire Cloud Palace!

While thinking this, Yu Yuan nonchalantly asked, "By the way, I heard from the Ancestor Witch that all you Immortal Gods who went to Zixiao Palace to listen to the Dao were bestowed with Hongng Purple Qi by the Saint, except for our Ancestor Witch… Is that true?"

"You must have heard wrong,"

Red Cloud Ancestor looked at him amusedly, "Hongng Purple Qi isn't sothing just anyone has, there were no less than three thousand Immortal Gods who went to hear the Dao..."

As he spoke, his expression suddenly changed, he looked up in the southwest direction, frowning and said: "Not good, that troublemaker has co again!

I must leave quickly to avoid bringing harm to the monkeys in this valley!

Fellow Daoist, let's part here.

If ti permits in the future, I'll visit you at Buzhou Mountain."

After saying this, he transford into a streak of red light, soaring into the sky, and rushed towards the northeast.

Yu Yuan sighed inwardly, feeling sowhat regretful.

However, he could only stay for the ti of two more cups of tea, and he feared that he wouldn't have enough ti to catch up before his energy was depleted.

Rather than that, it might be better to conserve so of the Spiritual Energy of the Chaos Bell and return to his own ti and space beforehand.

Just as he had made up his mind to return, he saw a streak of golden light coming from the southwest direction, rushing over in an instant, streaking across the sky above his head, and chasing after Red Cloud Ancestor.

From the corner of his eye, he seed to catch a glimpse of a pair of sharp eyes within the golden light, giving him a cold glance.

In that instant, Yu Yuan distinctly felt the disregard in the other's gaze.

It was an aloof look that saw all beings as insubstantial ants!

His eyebrows furrowed deeply, not because of the disdainful, indifferent look in the other's eyes, but because he had captured a trace of Innate Xin tal Qi within that golden light!
