A Calamity Star Dogged by Bad Luck

Liu Yi, along with Su Yuxuan and Little Yellow, deliberately avoided the central area of the chaotic battle surrounding the emergence of the Immortal Artifact.

They swiftly traversed the Yin-Yang Plain, intently searching for the rare treasures revealed as the Yin-Yang Mist dissipated.

He remained relatively calm about these treasures, only showing a hint of joy when he found the Chaos Stone he needed.

But Su Yuxuan and Little Yellow were completely different. The two of them flew with an undisguised lightness, their mouths stretched almost to their ears, and their faces were full of unconcealed excitement.

That's an exaggeration!

Little Yellow's voice was filled with excitement, "In just this short time, we've found more treasures than we did in the previous six months combined!"

Su Yuxuan nodded repeatedly, her eyes filled with admiration as she looked at Liu Yi.

"Senior Liu was truly farsighted. While everyone was frantically scrambling for Immortal Artifact, we were peacefully searching for treasures."

Hearing their exclamations, Liu Yi's lips curled into a slight smile.

"Don't waste time, let's speed things up. Let's find as many treasures as possible before the others realize what's happening."

As soon as he finished speaking, he flew swiftly across the Yin-Yang Plain. Su Yuxuan and Little Yellow quickly composed themselves and followed closely behind.

Suddenly, Liu Yi glanced around and caught sight of a figure rapidly approaching from ahead.

He was a middle-aged man dressed in a dark blue Daoist robe, with a short mustache and a long beard, looking like a Daoist immortal.

Meanwhile, the other side was also flying rapidly across the Yin-Yang Plain, focused on searching for treasures.

Their eyes met suddenly, and both were taken aback. Then they nodded and smiled slightly, intending to look away.

But just then, Su Yuxuan's exclamation suddenly rang out. "The jinx Mei Kong!"

Mei Kong stopped upon hearing the voice, turned to look at Su Yuxuan, and said with a hint of surprise, "I didn't expect this fellow Daoist to know me."

Su Yuxuan was startled when Mei Kong's gaze swept over her, and she immediately shrank back, hiding behind Liu Yi, urging him urgently in her voice:

"Senior Liu, let's go quickly!"

"Fellow Daoist, please do not panic."

Mei Kong spoke gently, "Those rumors are nothing more than misunderstandings people have about me."

Having said that, he bowed to Liu Yi and said, "Amitabha Buddha. I am Mei Kong. May I ask your esteemed name?"

Upon hearing Su Yuxuan's exclamation, Liu Yi couldn't help but think of Shen Gongbao, the jinx in the Investiture of the Gods who always shouted "Fellow Daoist, Please Stay!" He immediately became more wary.

He returned the greeting with a cupped hand, his tone calm. "Fellow Daoist Mei, my name is Liu Yi. Fellow Daoist Su was impolite just now; I hope you will forgive him."

Mei Kong smiled sincerely and shook her head gently:

"It's alright, I'm used to it. The misfortunes those people have suffered are all due to their own karma, and have nothing to do with me. It's just that people are imposing their faults on me."

Liu Yi nodded slowly, not too worried.

After all, he had already mastered the three Principle Fate, fortune, and bad luck, so even if the other party had a lot of bad luck, it wouldn't affect him.

However, since the name of this jinx has spread far and wide, there must be a reason for it. To be on the safe side, it's best to stay away.

Liu Yi said, "Fellow Daoist Mei, we still need to continue our search for treasures, so we'll take our leave now."

After saying that, he didn't say anything more, and with Su Yuxuan and Little Yellow, he turned around and sped off in another direction.

Only after getting far away from Mei Kong did Su Yuxuan finally breathe a sigh of relief and relax, her voice still carrying a lingering fear:

"I never expected to run into the jinx Mei Kong here. My heart was pounding in my chest just now."

Little Yellow approached with a puzzled look and asked, "Fellow Daoist Su, that Mei Kong looks like a sage and speaks very gently, why are you so afraid of him?"

"It's not that I'm cowardly, it's just that no one who knows his name is afraid of him!"

Su Yuxuan quickly explained, her tone somewhat serious.

"His reputation as a jinx isn't unfounded; anyone who's been close to him or spoken to him..."

No one can escape bad luck; at best, they'll suffer financial losses and danger, at worst, they'll lose their lives.

"That's terrifying?" Little Yellow's eyes widened upon hearing this, and he couldn't help but gasp.

Su Yuxuan nodded, her tone becoming increasingly solemn. "It's even more terrifying than you think! His mother died right after he was born;

Her father died when she was one year old; her grandmother died when she was three; and her grandfather died when she was five.

When he was six years old, the village was suddenly raided by bandits, and he was the only one who survived.

His master happened to pass by and discovered that he had a rare Heavenly Spirit Root, so he took him back to the sect and accepted him as a disciple.

As a result, after he successfully Foundation Establishment, his master suddenly Qi Deviation and died.

Later, when he broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, his sect was attacked by the Devil Dao Sect, and the entire sect was wiped out.

In the years that followed, anyone who got involved with him suffered misfortune one after another. This wasn't just one or two cases, but rather a summary of over a hundred calamities.

In the cultivation Immortal Realm today, who wouldn't be terrified upon hearing the name Mei Kong!

Little Yellow felt a chill run down his spine and quickly turned to look at Liu Yi, his eyes filled with worry.

"Master, you just spoke to him, and you were so close. Could it be... could something happen? We'd better be careful."

Liu Yi was also somewhat alarmed at this moment; this Mei Kong was even more sinister than he had anticipated.

But he quickly calmed himself and said confidently, "Don't worry, even if his bad luck is strong, it may not affect me."

No sooner had he finished speaking than he sensed a blade of energy slashing down from the sky.

He reacted extremely quickly, immediately pulling Little Yellow and Su Yuxuan away to escape.

"Boom!"

The blade of energy cleaved straight into the ground, instantly tearing a deep trench stretching for a thousand miles across the Yin-Yang Plain, sending rubble flying and dust billowing everywhere.

Su Yuxuan patted her chest, her face pale with lingering fear.

"That was close! We were almost dead! It must be Mei Kong's bad luck that's affecting us."

Little Yellow's voice trembled with fear. "That's so creepy! If my master hadn't reacted quickly, I would be dead."

Liu Yi frowned slightly, a sense of unease creeping into his mind: Could it be that he was truly plagued by Mei Kong's bad luck?

But having just said I wouldn't be affected and then this happened, it's really embarrassing. I can only force myself to say:

"It's probably a coincidence. We're close to the battlefield where they're fighting for the Immortal Artifact, so it's normal for attacks to occasionally come our way."

No sooner had they finished speaking than another whooshing sound rang out, and a broken piece of Demon Beast horn, carrying immense power, hurtled toward the three of them.

Liu Yi once again swiftly dodged with Little Yellow and Su Yuxuan.

"Boom!"

The Demon Beast's horn slammed into the ground, instantly creating a deep crater, with dirt and gravel flying everywhere.

Liu Yi stared at the deep pit before him and fell completely silent.

The first time might have been an accident, but two in a row could not possibly be. Clearly, they had been plagued by Mei Kong luck.

This Mei Kong is even more outrageous than Shen Gongbao from the Investiture of the Gods; he was plagued by bad luck just for saying a few words.

Su Yuxuan and Little Yellow stood frozen in place, staring at the pit, trembling with fear, even holding their breath.

Little Yellow hurriedly tugged at Liu Yi's sleeve. "Master! Let's stop looking for the treasure and leave Yin-Yang Ruins quickly!"

That Mei Kong is too eerie; if we stay any longer, someone will die.

Just then, the immortal sword that had been fought over by various powerful figures and constantly shifted in the air...

Suddenly breaking free from the crowd's scramble, it transformed into a dazzling beam of light and flew straight towards Liu Yi.

In an instant, the celestial light subsided, and the celestial sword gently landed in his hand.
