Xiaoqing hurriedly fled, transforming into a snake, and darted through the waterways of Hangzhou City. After a large detour, she quietly returned to West Lake.
At the bottom of the Broken Bridge in West Lake, there was a hidden underwater palace, which was the place where the two sisters practiced.
Familiar with the route, she arrived at the bottom of the Broken Bridge and saw a small hole no more than twenty centimeters in diameter. The hole was too small for a human to enter, but Xiaoqing, now in snake form, had no such problem.
Swimming along the winding and twisting passage for a while, a layer of water film appeared ahead. This was a water-repelling spell created by a talisman. With a movement of her inner power, a layer of mist immediately appeared on her body.
Under the cover of the mist, Xiaoqing silently passed through the water film and entered her practice cave.
Inside, it was a truly unique place, a natural cave about a hundred square meters in area, fully equipped with tables, chairs, and beds. The ground was clean and tidy, and the air was dry and warm, without the usual damp and cold feeling of a water cave.
Xiaoqing transformed back into human form, hurriedly walked to the bed, and sat down with her legs crossed and eyes closed. After a moment, a gust of cold wind blew through the cave, lasted for a while, and then disappeared, indicating that her soul had left the Confucian world.
Exiting the virtual world, she entered the vast virtual network. Xiaoqing cautiously navigated through a Pandora's maze, confirmed that no one was following her, and then entered a network address.
Instantly, the scene changed, and a massive deep green light sphere appeared before her. The diameter of this sphere was five to six times larger than the Confucian world she had been in, and the data density was even more terrifying, at least a hundred times greater. In total, the data volume of the light sphere was over ten thousand times that of the Confucian world.
This was the only gold-level virtual world in the virtual network: Earth.
The scene flashed by quickly, and Xiaoqing's soul entered the Earth world. Before her appeared a majestic and rugged mountain, which was the immortal mountain where her and her sister's master resided.
To show respect, Xiaoqing slowed her pace and climbed up the rugged mountain path. After nearly half an hour, as she turned a corner, she suddenly saw an old woman with silver hair sitting on a resting stone by the roadside.
The old woman wore a gray robe like an ordinary woman, with a lichee wood cane by her side. Her aged face wore a smile as she looked at Xiaoqing kindly.
Lishan Laomu, also known as Wuji Laomu, was a famous destroyer in the Earth world, with a power that shook the heavens, second only to the Three Pure Ones of Daoism and the Two Saints of the West.
Xiaoqing hurriedly approached and knelt down, saying, "Master, your disciple Xiaoqing greets you."
The old woman raised her hand and a无形气劲 lifted Xiaoqing up, saying gently, "Did you cause trouble again?"
Xiaoqing's face showed shame as she nodded, "I have disgraced you, Master."
The old woman shook her head, "Not necessarily. Winning and losing are common in life. Tell me what happened."
"Yes, Master," Xiaoqing nodded and began to recount her and her sister's experiences in the Confucian world, exaggerating Fahai's cruelty, portraying him as a vicious and tyrannical villain who bullied men and women.
Lishan Laomu chuckled, already seeing through her disciple's thoughts. After listening, she sighed, "Xiaobai, really. I asked her to find a player to bear a body for our junior brother to possess and train. Instead, she fell in love with the player. Now being trapped in Leifeng Pagoda is part of her destiny."
Originally, she could have left after conceiving and found a secret place to give birth. But who would have thought that Bai Niangzi would continue living with the player, drawing attention.
Why do cultivators avoid entanglements? Because they fear becoming entangled with ordinary players, which could eventually draw the attention of the game company and lead to a thunderous downfall.
Xiaoqing's face turned red, "Master, Sister Bai was just trying to complete the task. Besides, Xu Xuan is really handsome, and Sister Bai was momentarily confused. Please forgive her."
In fact, she also had a good impression of Xu Xuan. He was handsome and had a good temper, truly charming.
The old woman nodded, "This is normal. The hardest thing for men and women to escape is the word 'emotion.' Only by experiencing it can one see through it. This applies not only to us but also to the maintainers, who experience the cycle of life and death with a clear mind. If they cannot see through this, their future achievements will be limited."
Maintainers and destroyers are both awake, and playing emotions with the masses who have their memories blocked is asking for trouble and entanglement.
In other words, they are just playing the game for fun, while you are there to make money, a professional player of the new era. Entangling with those who are just there for fun will result in taking risks without earning money, a pure loss. So this must be clear.
Xiaoqing accepted the lesson and nodded in agreement.
The old woman flipped her hand, and a scroll appeared, which she handed to Xiaoqing, "This is called 'The True Explanation of Water Control Technique,' a supplement to the water control technique I taught you. It can perfect it into a third-level Daoist technique. Take it and practice diligently. Once you understand it, you can use it to defeat Fahai in the water, and he will surely lose."
Unfortunately, her disciple is not on Earth; otherwise, she could easily kick Fahai out of the game with a magical treasure.
Xiaoqing was overjoyed, "Yes, Master."
She respectfully received the scroll and suddenly remembered the strange situation at West Lake, feeling alarmed, she quickly said, "Master, I forgot to report another matter."
"Oh, tell me about it," the old woman's expression was calm.
Xiaoqing detailed her encounter at West Lake and concluded, "The other party seemed unwilling to intervene, only controlling the water. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to return."
The old woman frowned, calculated with her fingers, and checked the relevant information in the virtual network, then said, "I know a little about the high-level person in Hangzhou City. His name is Xu Renyuan, a bodyguard for the VIP Yang Ting. His Daoist cultivation is barely noticeable. Since he is there, be careful when you use the Water Control Technique. Besides Fahai, try not to harm anyone. If he intervenes, you won't be a match for him even after another hundred years of practice."
Lishan Laomu has lived for tens of thousands of years on Earth and is a先天女仙. The term '先天' refers to a character who existed before the creation of the universe, with unfathomable Daoist powers. In the entire federation, she is a top-tier destroyer.
Sun Ran concealed his identity and was just a bronze-level maintainer. Even though he killed over a dozen third-level demons and the third-in-command of the Scorpion Mercenary Group, in Lishan Laomu's eyes, he was only barely noticeable.
Xiaoqing accepted the lesson and nodded in agreement.
"Alright, stay on this mountain and study the true explanation. If you have any questions, come to me. Master it as soon as possible and then go back to save Xiaobai."
Unfortunately, she doesn't have the legendary ability to impart knowledge, or she could instantly enlighten her disciple.
"Yes, Master," Xiaoqing nodded.
