Chapter 264 The Long-Brow Old Daoist, Universe in the Sleeve

"Who are you, my friend, and why are you toying with us like this?"

Qingqiu Li asked, and the three of them split into three directions, surrounding the Long-Brow Old Daoist in the center.

The old Daoist priest, holding a roasted sparrow in one hand and flicking his sleeve with the other, glanced at Qingqiu Li, then at Hong Yun, finally fixing his gaze on the wine gourd at Hong Yun's waist. He laughed heartily, "This humble Daoist is nothing more than an ordinary seeker of the Dao in the Primordial Land, with no great reputation or title, which I've long forgotten. Young man, this wine is quite good; may I have a couple of sips..."

The old Daoist priest flicked his sleeve, distorting the very space around him.

Hong Yun instinctively protected the gourd at his waist; after all, it was his 'second life.' He would fight anyone who tried to take it from him. He would give it to them to drink, but he couldn't take it from them.

But just as he reached out, he suddenly pulled his hand back. The space around his waist distorted, and a withered, claw-like hand emerged from the distortion, easily snatching the gourd hanging from his waist.

Hong Yun was secretly alarmed and looked at the Long-Brow Old Daoist, just in time to see the Long-Brow Old Daoist taking out the wine gourd that was originally hanging on his waist and pouring wine into his mouth.

Zhen Yuanzi unfurled the Earth Book in his hand, borrowing the power of countless earth veins. The yellow earth vein power surged towards the Long-Brow Old Daoist like a torrent.

The Long-Brow Old Daoist simply flicked his sleeve, and the space in front of the torrent suddenly distorted. The torrent formed by the power of countless earth veins disappeared instantly, as if a giant dragon had entered a bottomless pit.

The next moment, the space behind Zhen Yuanzi suddenly distorted, and the torrent that had just disappeared blasted out from behind him, hitting his back.

Fortunately, Zhen Yuanzi's Spirit Treasure Earth Book, could easily control this torrent; otherwise, he might have ended up badly injuring himself.

So the three of them stopped what they were doing, exchanged glances, and became secretly wary.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, until the Long-Brow Old Daoist took a long sip of wine, let out a burp, and asked, "Are the three juniors still going to fight? If not, this old Daoist is leaving!"

What's the point of fighting?!

All three of them shared this sentiment.

Through their exchange just now, they knew very well that even the three of them combined were no match for this seemingly unremarkable, Long-Brow Old Daoist priest.

That Sleeve Universe Technique a sleeve could even fool them, a Daluo Immortal, and their Spirit Treasure were powerless against it. That Spatial Teleportation technique could easily transfer their own spells onto themselves—what's the point of fighting then?

"Senior's magic is divine; we can only express our 'admiration'!" Qingqiu Li bowed to the Long-Brow Old Daoist and said, "However, if Senior likes this dish I made, I have many other kinds! May I have the honor of inviting Senior to taste a few?"

"Hey! You Nüwa know how to talk. This old Daoist has traveled the Primordial World for many years and has never seen such food before. It's perfect with wine..."

The Long-Brow Old Daoist was beaming with pride, but when he saw Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi, his old face hardened again. He glared at them and said, "You two don't have the magnanimity of this Nüwa. It's just a sparrow and a pot of wine. Is it really worth you glaring at me like that? Besides, you don't even have any beards to glare at!"

As he spoke, the old Daoist priest blew on his beard and eyebrows.

Zhen Yuanzi was speechless. Who was it that was blowing their beard and glaring? How dare you, an old Daoist priest, criticize others?

But he dared not say that. When you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head. He was no match for them at all! It was better not to invite trouble and to behave himself.

One can imagine that this old Daoist priest is definitely an ancient monster who existed Era of Ferocious Beasts, and his cultivation level is far superior to theirs. Perhaps he has even surpassed the Daluo Realm.

Otherwise, how could they have been so easily restrained and unable to gain any advantage whatsoever?

They are Daluo Immortals! Even the Qilin Ancestor of the Qilin Royal Court wouldn't have such Daluo to be restrained like this!

In Zhen Yuanzi's opinion, although the Qilin Ancestor was strong, he was probably no match for this old Daoist in terms of his understanding of the Dao. This old Daoist did not even use a single Spirit Treasure to deal with them.

Hong Yun retorted angrily, "Senior, this is utterly unreasonable! If you had spoken kindly, I would have gladly offered you some wine. But your actions are no different from robbery! And you still have the nerve to complain about us being angry?"

When Zhen Yuanzi and Qingqiu Li heard Hong Yun's words, they wished they could just go up and shut him up. "Brother, can we be a little more discreet? We can't beat him!"

The Long-Brow Old Daoist said shamelessly, "I'll just rob you outright, what are you going to do about it?"

Hong Yun was speechless after being choked by the Long-Brow Old Daoist. She turned around and left in a huff, taking out a jar of fine wine from her Cosmos Storage Bag and drinking it.

That wine was a treasured gift from Wu Chu — the Hundred Flowers Lingnai Wine.

It's completely like, "I can't do anything about you, but I'll make you furious."

Before he could even take a sip, the Long-Brow Old Daoist snatched the jar of wine away and shoved his wine gourd back into his hands.

"Oh dear! You little rascal, you should have said so earlier if you had good wine! Why are you being so polite with this old Daoist priest? Well, alright, alright, for the sake of this good wine, this old Daoist priest will let it go!"

"..."

Hong Yun gripped the wine gourd that had suddenly returned to his hand, wanting to curse, but Zhen Yuanzi had already covered his mouth. Zhen Yuanzi bowed to the Long-Brow Old Daoist while smiling and saying, "Please don't take offense, senior. My brother here is straightforward and his words are often unpleasant to hear. I'll just tell him to shut up..."

The old Daoist waved his hand and said, "It's alright, it's alright. I'm a straightforward person, so please don't take offense. Hey little kid, what other skills do you have? Would you dare to show me a thing or two?"

Qingqiu Li was somewhat amused and exasperated. She, the dignified ancestor of Qingqiu, was being treated like a 'little kid'. She wondered who this old Daoist was and how he could be so powerful.

Could it be... that senior?

Qingqiu Li thought of the senior who had appeared at Purple Jade Mountain, but then thought it was unlikely. Although Wu Chu had never described the senior's appearance to her, she felt that the senior in front of her was not the same person as the one Wu Chu had mentioned.

This senior gave her a cynical feeling, completely lacking the self-awareness and demeanor of a senior, acting entirely as he pleased and spontaneously.

Fortunately, this senior wasn't as violent as the Demon Ancestor, otherwise things would have been troublesome.

Qingqiu Li silently demonstrated her mediocre cooking skills to the old Daoist priest. Although it was only mediocre, the Long-Brow Old Daoist still praised it highly.

Finally, he said, "Having enjoyed such delicious food and fine wine from you all, this old Daoist priest cannot take advantage of you youngsters. This old Daoist priest has a technique called 'Universe in the Sleeve,' would you like to learn it?"
