Chapter 161 Yao Yao's Trials
In the blink of an eye, another three years have passed.
The year is 2142 in the Blue Star calendar.
In the Peach Blossom Paradise, all was peaceful and serene. The three elder couples had all reached the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage. In fact, they had reached this stage one after another a year ago!
Qin Xi has successfully entered the Nascent Soul Realm.
From the golden core within his body, he condensed his own nascent soul.
A humanoid ray of light, the size of a finger, appeared. Upon closer inspection, it looked exactly like her true self. The nascent soul was born from the golden core, ascended along the body, and finally sat cross-legged deep within her head, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to solidify itself.
To put it simply, this process is somewhat like hatching an egg. The nascent soul breaks out of the golden core shell, undergoes a metamorphosis like a silkworm pupa, absorbs the primordial essence from the golden core, swallows it into its own body, and finally transforms into a primordial spirit, becoming the cultivator's second life.
Little Yao Yao is already ten years old. She has not only grown up a lot, but has also developed into a beautiful and cute little girl.
Furthermore, she has already formally begun her cultivation and reached the Foundation Establishment Realm. It is truly inappropriate for someone as young as ten to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm, given Yao Yao's talent. It is because Yun Chen deliberately restricted her cultivation progress to allow her to build a solid foundation. Haste makes waste, and only by accumulating knowledge and experience can one go further in the future.
In the secluded paradise, on the small hillside behind the courtyard.
Yun Chen was sleeping under a big tree, which was covered with some crystal-clear, fist-sized golden fruits.
"Dad! Wake up!"
Little Yao Yao ran over and nestled against Yun Chen's chest, her little hands constantly kneading Yun Chen's face.
Yun Chen woke up from his sleep, hugged Xiao Yaoyao tightly, and then sat up: "Little girl, what do you want to do?"
Little Yao Yao said, "Daddy, don't forget! You promised to take Yao Yao out for some outdoor adventures today!"
Yun Chen stood up, holding Xiao Yaoyao, and took her hand.
"Okay, Dad will take you out to play today."
"Have Grandpa and Grandma come back yet?"
Little Yao Yao said, "Not yet. They said we'd be going on a ten-day training trip, and today is only the third day. Daddy is so forgetful."
Yun Chen led Xiao Yao Yao down the hillside and back to the courtyard.
The garden in front of the courtyard is as large as two football fields. It is full of all kinds of colorful medicinal herbs. Some are as tall as fruit trees with waving canopies, while others are as short as grass with roots that penetrate deep into the soil. The entire medicinal field looks full of vitality and is filled with the fragrance of herbs.
Three figures were working: Qin Xi, her mother Su Lan, and Chu Miaomiao's mother Li Zihan were picking herbs.
Little Yao Yao let go of Yun Chen's hand, ran into the herb field, and skipped over to Qin Xi, hugging her: "Mommy."
Qin Xi placed a freshly picked medicinal herb in the basket and gently rubbed Xiao Yaoyao's head: "Baby, what's wrong?"
Little Yao Yao blinked her beautiful big eyes: "Mommy, Daddy said he would take Yao Yao on a trip today."
Qin Xi remembered this: "Mom knows."
She put down the basket and picked up little Yao Yao. Little Yao Yao had grown a lot and wasn't as easy to hold as she was when she was little.
Yun Chen walked over and kissed Qin Xi on the cheek.
After saying goodbye to elders such as Qin Hong and Su Lan, Yun Chen left the secret realm with his wife and children.
Today, the cultivation civilization on Earth has become incredibly prosperous and brilliant. Although it has only been seven or eight years, one should never underestimate the wisdom and creativity of any member of the Chinese immortal race.
The greatest threat to humanity comes from the ocean.
Seven parts ocean, vast and boundless. In the depths of the four vast oceans in the east, west, south and north, there are countless sea monsters, the most powerful of which are comparable to Nascent Soul stage cultivators!
Furthermore, these monsters have developed a certain level of intelligence. The strong rule over the weak, and the weak obey the strong. They continue to land on the continent, bringing disaster to the Chinese immortals on every continent!
Land-based spirit beasts are somewhat different from demonic beasts. After being tamed by the Beast Taming Divine Power, they can become helpers of the Immortal Clan, forming contracts with Immortal Clan cultivators and becoming their best allies.
Yun Chen led them into the Xianyou Mountains.
This place is the closest, so it was the first choice, mainly to let Xiao Yaoyao experience the wild environment.
In just a few years, the trees in the Xianyou Mountains have grown exceptionally tall, with the shortest reaching 20 to 30 meters and the tallest exceeding 200 meters, making it seem like a true primeval forest.
Furthermore, many of the original creatures here have evolved into mythical beasts: mosquitoes the size of basketballs, beetles the size of buckets, butterflies the size of washbasins, and in addition to various insects, there are birds two or three meters long, and jackals, tigers, leopards, and bears five or six meters long, all of which are highly aggressive.
In just seven or eight years since the spiritual energy was restored, all life on the entire planet has undergone unprecedented changes.
Yun Chen picked up Xiao Yaoyao and said seriously, "Baby, you'll have to rely on yourself for the trials ahead. You'll have to use all the skills your parents have taught you. No matter what happens, you must first ensure your own safety."
Little Yao Yao said earnestly, "Yao Yao understands!"
Next, they let Xiao Yaoyao go on her own, setting her the goal of traversing ten kilometers of mountains and forests by herself.
After all, Xiao Yaoyao had reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Her true energy automatically protected her body, isolating her from all external adverse factors. She moved forward in the forest with extremely agile and swift movements.
Keep in mind that Yao Yao is only ten years old.
Soon after, a large, fiery red bird spotted her and landed on a huge treetop, its fiery red eyes observing her.
It cautiously looked around, and after confirming that Xiao Yaoyao was alone, it spread its wings and took flight, swooping down towards her. This was a red falcon with combat power comparable to the Qi Refining Realm, and it was very fast, emitting a sonic boom that caused gusts of wind to howl in the surrounding forest.
Tweet!
A bird's cry echoed throughout the forest, so piercing it seemed to shatter eardrums!
Xiao Yaoyao suddenly turned around and looked back.
A large, fiery red bird swooped down on her!
Xiao Yaoyao drew a small sword, used her sword control technique to throw it out, and the sword seemed to come alive, flying and shuttling through the forest, as if it had turned into a streak of light, agile and swift, shooting towards the red falcon!
*Pfft!*
The kestrel spread its wings and dodged the flying sword, but some of its feathers were cut off and fell into the air!
"cut!"
Xiao Yaoyao flicked her fingers together and gently hooked them back!
call out!
The flying sword was extremely fast, frantically rubbing against the air, and immediately changed direction, locking onto the red falcon, and whistling as it charged back!
*Pfft!*
One of the kestrels' wings was pierced, and a shattered feather fell to the ground, spurting blood.
Tweet!
It let out a sharp screech, immediately sensing a strong threat. At that moment, it abandoned its pursuit of Xiao Yaoyao and spread its wings to fly into the sky.
Xiao Yaoyao gently waved her hand and sheathed the small sword.
On the mountaintop, Yun Chen stood there with Qin Xi in his arms.
Qin Xi focused her divine sense on Xiao Yaoyao.
The two kept track of Xiao Yaoyao's movements from afar, and their educational work over the past few years had been very effective.
This experience will take her out of the greenhouse and let her personally experience the good and bad of this world.
Little Yao Yao continued on her journey alone.
In the dense, vast forest, her petite figure seemed insignificant, filling one with worry no matter how one looked at her. How could anyone abandon a child in the primeval forest and leave her unattended?
Yun Chen and Qin Xi secretly protected each other.
"Don't be afraid, Yao Yao. You're the best! Mommy and Daddy will protect you from where you can't see us!"
In the woods, little Yao Yao moved forward steadily, her little fists clenched tightly, secretly encouraging herself. A gust of wind blew by, lifting her neat and tidy high ponytail.
Suddenly, a deafening roar came from ahead, the trees rustled, and then a huge creature appeared.
This is a mutated wild boar, three meters long and over one meter tall, with blood-red eyes, large tusks, thick and bushy bristles that emit a foul stench, and a pair of antlers on its head that resemble deer antlers.
Xiao Yaoyao was heroic and valiant. She activated her sword control technique and made a clean and swift move. With a single sword, she flew out. It was so sharp that the flying sword seemed to be a bolt of lightning, cutting through her head and severing it!
