Chapter 1161 He Won’t Be Coming

“You did it on purpose. You must have done it on purpose.” Evil Moon was half-cooked. When the lid of the tripod was opened, it screamed and wanted to jump out, but a majestic force pulled it back, and there was a faint meat fragrance in the air.

Bright Moon Immortal said lightly, “Still alive? Looks like I’ll have to add more fuel to it.”

She raised her hand, and the flames under the tripod sprang up again. The water in the tripod began to boil, and the air was filled with the smell of medicine.

Evil Moon struggled madly like a pig being slaughtered, splashing water all over.

“So noisy.” The Bright Moon Immortal frowned. After running her power a bit, she closed the lid of the Life Tripod of Heaven and Earth, and the Demon King’s scream was immediately isolated.

Looking at this, Ding Hao shook his head secretly.

By this time, he had already realized that the Bright Moon Immortal did not really want to stew Evil Moon, nor did she want to torture this fat cat. The Life Tripod of Heaven and Earth had countless wonderful functions. The Bright Moon Immortal seemed to be using the power of this tripod to refine something in Evil Moon’s body that had not been completely digested and merged. It was probably the immortal fruit she had mentioned before and the things that the Demon King had eaten over the years.

Ding Hao was a little curious about what happened between Evil Moon and the Bright Moon Immortal.

It seemed that Evil Moon had spent some time here with the Bright Moon Immortal. Later, for some reason, it broke free and had never come back. Something interesting might have happened during that period, so Evil Moon had lost some of its memories about this site. It was not until Evil Moon saw the Bright Moon Immortal that it remembered the past.

Ding Hao had too many questions to ask the Bright Moon Immortal.

The two of them talked for an entire day and night.

Bright Moon Immortal almost answered every question Ding Hao asked.

She told everything to Ding Hao except for some mysteries that she could not figure out.

In addition to talking about some secrets of the Immortal Period, Bright Moon Immortal generously gave Ding Hao some advice on cultivation. She was one of the Eight True Immortals of the Immortal Period. She was taught by the Immortal Ancestor, Xuan Tianzong. She had extraordinary insight and even knew more things than the Saber Master and the Sword Master. Her casual words often made Ding Hao enlightened.

This was no longer simple guidance for cultivation. Instead, it was more like preaching.

Bright Moon Immortal was a True Immortal, so she was naturally familiar with the cultivation rules and skills of the Immortal Tao. She had an experience that did not exist in this world at present. It was like an immortal scripture. Every word that the Bright Moon Immortal said was like the sound of the Great Tao, containing the mystery of heaven and earth.

Ding Hao had a great harvest.

He was the first person in the long way of martial arts cultivation in this epoch to have received such sincere guidance from a True Immortal.

The Bright Moon Immortal treated Ding Hao very well. Although she liked to tease him, she definitely thought highly of him. She treated him as her own disciple.

Ding Hao was intoxicated by her lecturing.

At the same time, Evil Moon had been cooked inside the tripod for a whole day and night. In the end, it didn’t even have the strength to struggle. It twitched and floated in the boiling water inside the tripod. If it weren’t for its limbs twitching constantly, Ding Hao would really think that it had been stewed to death.

“Damn it. Crazy woman, I won’t let you go…” Evil Moon was so weak and scalded that almost all its white hair fell off.

“Really?” Bright Moon Immortal glanced at it and said, “You little thief, if it weren’t for me, you would have been eaten by that Snake Metamorphosis a long time ago and turned into a pile of shit. You ate so many of my magic herbs and divine medicines here before you developed spiritual intelligence and could cultivate. How could you still hate me…”

“That’s not true. You deliberately lured me to eat those herbs. You were too bored. You fed me herbs and medicine every day and tortured me.” Evil Moon defended itself.

“You’re glib-tongued,” the Bright Moon Immortal snorted.

“I learned those bad habits from you,” Evil Moon said angrily. “I used to be a quiet and beautiful cat as pure and kind as a little white flower. Since I stayed with you, I have become lazy and glib. You ruined my opportunity to be a good cat…”

“It seems that you aren’t cooked enough.” The Bright Moon Immortal raised her fair hand and added more fire to the tripod.

Evil Moon immediately began to wail and scream again.

Ding Hao could see that the Bright Moon Immortal and the Demon King liked and hated each other. He could also vaguely imagine that during some long period, these two bored guys who had been trapped here could only fight each other in this way.

“Well, it’s time for you to leave.” On the third day, Bright Moon Immortal stood up and stretched herself. She yawned and said, “I’m a little sleepy and I’m going to sleep.”

As she spoke, she opened her palm and threw Evil Moon out of the Life Tripod of Heaven and Earth. A small tripod with two ears and three feet rotated and fell into her palm. Evil Moon was thrown out of it. Its beautiful white fur was scalded, and it was gray and ugly all over. Ding Hao and Bright Moon Immortal burst out laughing.

Evil Moon became angry from embarrassment. It turned into a flowing light and plunged into the lake in the distance. After a while, it only popped its head out. On its naked head, snow-white fuzzes grew out little by little, and in a flash they became fine and dense.

Compared with the past, the Fat Cat looked even whiter, crystal clear like jade, and every strand of its fur was shining with bright brilliance. It was extremely beautiful, and there was a faint otherworldly aura as if it had become immortal.

A moment later, it jumped out of the lake. Looking down at its own appearance, it suddenly became complacent, forgetting to get even with Ding Hao and the Bright Moon Immortal. It scratched its head on the lake and laughed proudly. “Hahaha, this is great. Now, who would disagree that I’m the most beautiful cat in the world?”

Ding Hao still wanted to say something, but he saw that the Bright Moon Immortal’s eyelids had begun to close. She looked extremely sleepy and was about to fall asleep. She was indeed so tired that she could not control herself. Otherwise, with her strength, she would not have been unable to stand still.

“Hey? Is this woman going to fall asleep again?” Evil Moon flew over, glanced at her, and said furtively, “Let’s take this opportunity to leave now. Every time she sleeps, she’ll sleep for 3,000 years and it will be difficult to wake her up. It’s boring to stay here.”

“Three thousand years in one sleep?”

Ding Hao was stunned and immediately realized that the Bright Moon Immortal was probably in a strange state because of her previous injury. She could not stay awake for a long time and would involuntarily fall into a state of sleep. Otherwise, with her strength, how could she call herself a dead person? Which dead person had such powerful cultivation as hers?

Through the conversation just now, Ding Hao had learned that the Bright Moon Immortal was now in a strange state of life and death. It was the strange environment and rules of this dangerous place, as well as the tactical deployment that trapped her, that kept her alive. Once she left this place, she would die in an instant.

This might also be one of the reasons why she had chosen not to leave these years.

“Don’t hesitate. Every time the crazy woman falls asleep, there will be a terrible guy who will secretly come to see her. He must be her lover. If he finds a gigolo like you here, he will definitely be jealous and kill you.” Evil Moon continued to instigate Ding Hao and said with a lingering fear, “You know, I was just a cat at that time, but I was almost killed by that terrible guy.”

“What did you say? Someone will come to see her?” Ding Hao was slightly surprised.

The Bright Moon Immortal had never mentioned this before.

“He’s a very mysterious guy. Every time, he takes a look at her through the peripheral tactical deployment, and then he leaves.” Evil Moon said impatiently, “I’ve only seen him three times. He’s very mysterious, and I couldn’t see his face clearly, but he’s definitely very powerful, not much weaker than this crazy woman.”

Ding Hao was lost in thought.

Every time the Bright Moon Immortal fell asleep, a man would come to see her and just take a look at her. What Evil Moon said about the man being her lover might be true. Ding Hao had an intuition that this mysterious guy might be from the same era as the Bright Moon Immortal.

If that was the case, things would be quite scary.

“Is he another being that has survived the Immortal Period?

“A former immortal?”

“Wait, you said that the Bright Moon Immortal would sleep for 3,000 years every time she sleeps, and you also said that a mysterious person came to see her after she fell asleep. You have already seen him three times…” Ding Hao’s eyes fell on Evil Moon, and he said, “Have you lived for more than 9,000 years? Looks like you’re also an old monster.”

Evil Moon covered its mouth with its front paws, looking as if it had revealed its age. It said, “Let’s go. That man may be here soon. If we don’t leave now, we’ll be in danger.”

Ding Hao thought for a moment. He then nodded and said, “Okay. Let’s leave here first.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he summoned the gold-silver Yin and Yang Pisces Diagram around him. At the same time, he raised his hand and directly collected more than a dozen Ceromen into the small golden saber world. Then, he walked out.

This was arranged by the Bright Moon Immortal. She asked Ding Hao to take those Ceromen away from this place after she fell asleep.

...

It was much easier for Ding Hao to go out this time than when he came in.

After communicating with the Bright Moon Immortal and getting her full guidance, Ding Hao comprehended countless knowledge of the Immortal Tao. His mental state and Divine Senses were already comparable to those of a Human Immortal, and his Qi cultivation was also at the Completion of the dual meridian Martial Demigod Realm. He was only one step away from reaching the Heaven Path.

Bright Moon Immortal also agreed with Ding Hao’s saying of “half an acre of land”. Therefore, before the power of the tides between heaven and earth was completely restored and the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth could completely surge, the world could not handle the appearance of an immortal, and Ding Hao would not be able to become one.

Ding Hao could not become immortal until the rules of the world were restored to a strong extent and the immortals were allowed to show up.

He was not in a hurry about this.

In less than an hour, Ding Hao walked out of the tactical deployment and came to the outside world.

From the outside, this place still looked like an empty and lonely site. No one would have thought that there was a True Immortal’s soul in it, nor would they have thought that the greatest mysteries and vicissitudes of the Immortal Period were stored here.

Ding Hao waited outside the tactical deployment for ten days and ten nights.

However, the mysterious and terrifying existence mentioned by the Demon King did not appear this time.

“Meow? What’s going on? It’s impossible. He didn’t come to see this crazy woman. Did he change his mind? Or did he die?” Evil Moon was very puzzled. This was quite abnormal. It should be noted that every time the Bright Moon Immortal fell asleep, that terrifying being would definitely show up. His eyes alone could shake the heaven and earth.

Ding Hao was a little disappointed.

...

He wanted to see the mysterious man. Perhaps he could solve a lot of mysteries after talking to him.

After another five days, Ding Hao got up and left.

“He won’t be coming.”
