The dark and wandering lights flickered in the cold Qionghua Palace, giving it a slightly lonely feeling.
Duan Zhen sat upright on the futon with his eyes closed.
"Dong dong dong."
Three knocks on the door came, like a visit and a reminder.
Immediately, the heavy wooden door was slowly pushed open.
The first thing that was revealed was a hand as white as jade, which was caressing the door, seeming to be considering something.
"I don't know, friend, where is the fairy mountain?"
Immediately afterwards, Duan Zhen heard a moving sound like flowing water from a clear spring floating in his ears.
He couldn't help but open his eyes and look at the person.
The lights flickered, reflecting the appearance of the person in front of him.
It has to be said that this is the most out-of-this-world man Duan Zhen has seen in his several worlds.
His figure is slender and straight, and his hair is wrapped with black jade hairpins, piled up like light clouds.
The two sword-shaped eyebrows and the corners of his eyes fell together, showing his sharpness.
But there was a hint of softness in his eyes, which diluted the sharpness of his eyebrows, exuding an extremely profound and affectionate meaning.
"this person..."
Duan Zhen couldn't help but secretly praise him. The current appearance of this man actually made people unable to feel any ill feelings.
I'm afraid no woman in the world can resist such affectionate eyes.
"How can people from wild mountains talk about fairy mountains?"
Duan Zhen shook his head and began to stare at the man. A deep and mysterious brilliance rose from his eyes.
His bearing is not bad, and he only admires this man secretly, and will not be affected by anything else.
"So...that's because I, Qiong Hua, am not being polite enough."
The man wore a blue and white Taoist robe, casually found a futon to sit on, and continued: "In Xia Xuanxi, I am the fifth generation headmaster of the Qionghua Sect, and I have met the layman."
"I'm Duan Zhen."
Duan Zhen didn't care much when he saw Xuan Xi announcing his name and finding a place to sit down.
From the moment the other party entered the door, he had actually completely sensed the other party's cultivation level.
This is a master at the Dharma level, and the true energy flowing in his body is close to the intermediate Dharma level.
Coupled with the magnanimity seen in person, Duan Zhen's perception of the entire Qionghua Sect improved slightly.
Regardless of his disciples, Xuan Xi's extraordinary demeanor makes him worthy of being the headmaster of the Immortal Sect.
"I wonder what Layman Duan thinks the Tao is?"
Xuan Xi sat cross-legged on the futon, smiled slightly, and asked deeply.
He didn't mention anything about Duan Zhen's sabotage along the way, and he didn't even have the slightest intention of asking for guilt.
Even though Duan Zhen is now sitting on the futon representing the headmaster's position, he is not angry at all.
Instead, he asked a completely unrelated question.
What is the Tao.
"The Tao is easy to reason."
Duan Zhen raised his head, looked at the slender man, and answered calmly.
He was not surprised at all by this sudden question, but rather took it seriously.
If Xuan Xi was shouting to fight and kill as soon as he came up, it would not be able to match his extraordinary demeanor.
"What is Yili?"
Xuan Xi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, as if he heard the novel words.
His affectionate eyes became calmer and his body sat upright slightly.
"Since the birth of all living beings, what they have spontaneously recognized is Yili. Yili has its own permanence and is not the only one."
Duan Zhen glanced at the ever-burning lantern beside him, reached out his hand slightly, and the lantern candle fluttered into his hand.
He pulled out a piece of the futon he was sitting on and placed it on top of the fireworks, and soon there was burning light and shadow.
"This is the Tao."
Duan Zhen threw away the burned debris, put down the ever-burning lamp, and spoke calmer.
"Junior Duan is quite straightforward."
When Xuan Xi saw this scene, he was slightly moved, as if he was thinking about the meaning of the fireworks burning the crumbs of the futon.
After a long time, he also beckoned for an ever-burning lamp and covered his palms with the fireworks.
"Zizzizi."
A layer of mysterious light and shadow clings to his skin, and no matter how hot the flames are, it cannot destroy it at all.
"Fire burns all things and exists in the harmony of the Tao. But it can't hurt me at this time. Why does Master Duan think so?"
Xuan Xi let go of the ever-burning lantern and looked at Duan Zhen, seemingly reluctant.
"Ordinary fire can't hurt it, but it can be hurt like this?"
Duan Zhen suddenly smiled when he saw Xuan Xi like this.
A ray of blood-red light suddenly rose in his palm, and immediately turned into a dazzling red fire ball.
He gently sent the fire ball and pressed it on Xuan Xi's palm.
The flame instantly attached itself to the opponent's knuckles, and with an irresistible force, it melted away his jade-like skin.
The mysterious light and shadow did not block the martial arts blood.
"I see."
Xuan Xi watched as his palm gradually turned black, but did not change color at all.
Instead, he allowed the flame to burn out before slowly nodding.
He looked at Duan Zhen and his eyes became brighter.
A sudden breeze blew up, stirring up the candles in the incense burner behind them and blowing up the talisman wrapped around the door curtain.
They watched the wind rise and just sat looking at each other, falling silent for a moment.
The Qionghua Palace is too deep, even if it can accommodate tens of thousands of people, it is more than enough.
There were only two of them at this time, but they seemed particularly lonely.
"I have no intention of staying for a long time, and I will not be an enemy of Qionghua. I came here just because I am upset."
Duan Zhen looked at Xuan Xi's injured palm and finally sighed.
His visit to Kunlun Fairy Mountain this time was random and had no purpose.
It was only because I encountered some unpleasant things along the way that I made this foray.
Xuanxi was willing to be burned by the fire of his martial arts blood once, and he had already exposed this matter.
"The Tao is easy to understand, but it is not wrong. I wonder if layman Duan would like to be my guest in Qionghua, so that we can find the Tao together?"
When Xuan Xi saw Duan Zhen relenting, he couldn't help but smile and invited Duan Zhen to stay at the door.
He seems to have recognized Duan Zhen's understanding of Tao, but he still wants to keep Duan Zhen.
"I'm a free and easy person. I'm used to being at ease. I'd like to thank the headmaster for his kindness."
Duan Zhen stood up slowly, looked at the dim lights around him, and walked towards the door.
When I opened the door, a ray of sunshine fell, and the Kunlun sky in the distance seemed particularly real.
Xuan Xi also stood up to see him off, his eyes also looking at the heavy lights and shadows on the top of the sky, his eyes even deeper.
"But I don't know where it is above the sky?"
Duan Zhen ignored the large group of Qionghua disciples standing at the door and looked at Xuan Xi and asked.
"The place of immortals and gods."
There was something inexplicable in Xuan Xi's eyes, and when he mentioned the word "immortal", he seemed to reveal a hint of indifference.
"The place of immortals and gods..."
Duan Zhen nodded and said nothing more.
Layers of blood-red shadows appeared on his body. With a slight jump, he headed towards the many suspended pavilions in the sky and left the Qionghua Fairy Mountain.
"Headmaster... just let him go like this?"
"Yes! He destroyed the front hall of my Qionghua Fairy Mountain, and he should be punished as a hard laborer!"
"Why did you let it go like this..."
After Duan Zhen left, the group of disciples of Qionghua Sect all spoke to Xuan Xi angrily, their words full of doubts and confusion.
The nine people who initially blocked Duan Zhen also hurriedly walked to Xuan Xi, looking a little angry.
"You guys..."
Xuan Xi looked at the people in front of him with his deep eyes, shook his head, and said no more.
He flew past and soon came to the gate of Qionghua Mountain, staring at the broken gate, somewhat lost in thought.
