Life is but a nightmare

Chapter 49 Mustard Seed Space

After resolving the matter of the Lingtian Battle Halberd, Zhou Xuan directly used the Twenty-Four Star Acupuncture technique to perform the final toxin removal for Daoist Wanhuo.

Following Zhou Xuan's successful elimination of the residual toxins within Daoist Wanhuo, the relationship between the two parties became even more harmonious.

Furthermore, Zhou Xuan had already accepted Daoist Taixuan's invitation and become a guest elder of the Lingyun Immortal Sect!

Therefore, no one had much to say about Zhou Xuan taking the Lingtian Battle Halberd.

Even the two old Daoists who had strongly objected to Zhou Xuan taking the battle halberd at first, expressed their apologies to Zhou Xuan at this moment.

Regarding their apologies, Zhou Xuan had no reason to hold any grudges.

After all, from beginning to end, he was the one who had benefited.

Thus, after resolving all the issues, as Zhou Xuan was about to take his leave, Daoist Taixuan stopped him with a word!

"Heh heh, since everything has been resolved!"

"And it's getting late, why don't you rest at the mountain gate for tonight, young friend!"

"Tomorrow, Qingxuan can take you around our Lingyun Immortal Sect properly!"

"After all, you are now the youngest elder of our Lingyun Immortal Sect!"

"You should get familiar with the sect's infrastructure!"

"Yes, Elder Brother Sect Master speaks with reason, it should be so!"

Upon hearing Daoist Taixuan's words, the other old Daoists seemed to have understood something and echoed his sentiments with smiles.

Seeing the strange smiles on the faces of these Daoists, Zhou Xuan did not yet understand what was happening.

Lin Qingxuan, standing beside him, blushed and stamped her foot before darting out of the main hall.

Finally, unable to refuse their earnest invitation, Zhou Xuan had to agree to stay at the Lingyun Immortal Sect for the night.

Led by an elder, Zhou Xuan was taken to a secluded courtyard.

The courtyard was not large, containing only two rooms.

Following the guidance of the elder who led the way, Zhou Xuan took the room on the left.

"The cultivators of Lingyun Immortal Sect are truly austere, sleeping on wooden planks even in this era!"

"But a wooden plank bed is still much better than the large bluestone my cultivation master made me sleep on back then!"

After a moment of reflection, Zhou Xuan prepared to wash up and rest.

Leaning the Lingtian Battle Halberd against a corner of the room, Zhou Xuan was about to step out to get some water when an anomaly occurred.

Suddenly, a fierce beam of light erupted from Zhou Xuan's left thumb.

Immediately after, Zhou Xuan found that the Lingtian Battle Halberd he had placed in the corner had vanished into thin air!

"What the hell!"

"What is this, where is my weapon?"

Seeing this, Zhou Xuan panicked instantly and hurried to the corner, searching everywhere, but found nothing.

"This is truly a ghost occurrence!"

"It was this ring that emitted light, and then my weapon disappeared!"

"It must be this damn thing causing trouble again, but this damn thing didn't react before!"

"Why is it causing trouble now!"

Unable to find the Lingtian Battle Halberd in the corner, Zhou Xuan turned his gaze directly to the ring on his left hand.

He couldn't recall when this ring had returned to his hand.

He only remembered that after he couldn't figure out this thing at the Lu family, he had casually tossed it into the wooden box.

He never expected that not only would this thing return on its own, but it would also swallow his weapon now.

Truly, if this is intolerable, then nothing is!

"Damn it, you're playing tricks on me, aren't you!"

"You scoundrel, if you don't return my weapon today!"

"I don't care if you are the relic of a Ascended realm expert, I will smash you to pieces!"

With a roar, Zhou Xuan directly circulated the true energy within his body.

In an instant, a powerful aura filled the entire room.

"Eh, there's a reaction!"

However, just as Zhou Xuan was about to exert all his strength and fight the ring to the death.

The dazzling light that had previously emanated from the ring reappeared, and then Zhou Xuan felt a wave of dizziness.

When he finally regained consciousness, he found himself no longer in the previous room.

Instead, it was as if he had been teleported to another world!

In this other world, Zhou Xuan could not sense any life force other than himself.

There was only an endless darkness, and mist that he couldn't penetrate all around!

Besides that, the Lingtian Battle Halberd that had disappeared from the room had also appeared in this other world!

"You damn ring, I know you're the one causing this!"

"If you have the guts, come out, let's have a 1v1 solo!"

"Putting on airs and playing the mystic, it's beneath your status as a relic of an Ascended expert!"

Looking at the bizarre scene before him, Zhou Xuan picked up the Lingtian Battle Halberd lying on the ground and shouted towards the surroundings.

Because he knew that all of this was definitely related to that damned ring.

Moreover, Zhou Xuan felt that the damned ring must possess its own consciousness.

Otherwise, why would it inexplicably appear on his hand, and now drag him to such a strange place.

"Perhaps that damned ring is also a powerful divine artifact with a spirit, otherwise it wouldn't have such great energy!"

"It could transfer a living person like me here without any preparation!"

"But I don't know what it's trying to do by pulling this stunt!"

"If it intends to harm me, with my current strength, I'm afraid I'm no match for it!"

"Stop guessing!"

"If I wanted to harm you, you would have been dead eight hundred times by now!"

"The reason I summoned you here is just to prevent you from going crazy again and trying to roast me or drown me!"

"My old bones can't take your torment!"

Just as Zhou Xuan was contemplating matters in his mind, a voice suddenly came from the mist not far away, interrupting his thoughts.

Immediately after, Zhou Xuan saw the white mist in front of him churn, and then an old man dressed in black slowly appeared before him.

The old man had an aged face but showed no signs of fatigue, with a smiling demeanor that made people feel easily approachable.

Of course, Zhou Xuan certainly didn't feel that way. Looking at the old man who suddenly appeared before him, Zhou Xuan gripped his battle halberd tightly, appearing ready to face a formidable enemy.

"You are the spirit of this ring, aren't you?"

"Where is this place?"

"Why did you bring me here?"

"Little娃娃, don't be so rude!"

"After all, I am considered your elder!"

"It's better to speak politely to your elders!"

"As for this place, it is naturally the world within the ring!"

"In your current terminology, you are now within a mustard seed space!"

"And I am the master of this mustard seed space, and also your ancestor, Zhou Shenglong!"
