Bai Che couldn't help but feel happy when he thought of this. If that was true, wouldn't it mean that he could return to his original world?
Seeing Bai Che's weird look, Qing'er looked suspicious and asked, "Bai Che, what's wrong with you?"
"Oh, it's okay." Bai Che came back to his senses and said, "Let's go to the Zidong Secret Realm to see if there are any treasures." As he said that, Bai Che's eyes were filled with light.
"Bah, you love money as much as your life." Qing'er said lightly: "You love money so much, be careful you will die in it sooner or later."
"How are you talking?" Bai Che's face turned dark and he said, "You don't understand, the life of the poor is difficult. Have you ever experienced three months without food or water? That feeling... ..”
"Without eating or drinking for three months?" Qing'er was surprised and said, "It's impossible! Have you ever experienced this?"
"That's not the case." Bai Che shook his head and said, "If you don't eat or drink for three months, you will lose weight from hunger. Look at me, so wise, powerful, and suave, how can I look like someone who has been hungry for three months?"
"Then you still ask?" Qing'er rolled her eyes at Bai Che. Are there any other wise, mighty, and suave people? Do you think you can relate to them?
"I'm just asking because I haven't experienced it before." Bai Che said confidently.
Qing'er:......
"No, no, this bastard is deliberately trying to make me angry. He will definitely conflict with me." Qing'er said secretly, "I can't be angry. I can't be angry."
The two finally stopped bickering and flew towards the Zidong Secret Realm on the flying magic weapon.
After a while, the two of them boarded the Zidong Secret Realm, and instantly, a purple energy enveloped their bodies.
The two passed through the barrier and entered the Zidong Secret Realm. It was said to be a secret realm, but in fact it looked more like a Taoist temple.
The Taoist temple is dilapidated, as if it has been abandoned for thousands of years. There are spider webs hanging everywhere. The floor is made of bluestone slabs and has accumulated a thick layer of dust. You will leave a footprint when you step on it.
Except for a few towering trees inside the Taoist temple, there is no life left.
In the center of the Taoist temple, there is a bluestone statue of an old man riding a green bull, heading west.
"Is it really me?" Bai Che's heart moved when he saw the statue. He quickly ran to the statue. He looked at the old man and the green cow. For some reason, he felt an inexplicable familiarity in his heart, and even had the urge to cry.
"Maybe it's because we come from the same place that our spiritual thoughts resonate with each other." Bai Che murmured to himself.
"If I really achieve Taoism and become an immortal in the end, then he will definitely leave some skills, such as works like the Tao Te Ching." Thinking of this, Bai Che's eyes sparkled.
Seeing Bai Che's expression, Qing'er looked suspicious and said, "Bai Che, what did you find?"
"Look, this should be the powerful one, right?" Bai Che pointed at the statue and said, "If he is really a powerful person, this should be his former dojo. Maybe there will be something left behind."
"I can't say for sure." Qing'er shook her head and said: "Although the Zidong Secret Realm is rarely discovered, it is not unheard of. The great master went west thousands of years ago, so I don't know. Is there anything left by his old man?"
Hearing this, Bai Che's heart felt as if it had hit a low point. After thinking for a moment, he said: "No matter whether there is anything left or not, it's better to look around first and pay homage to the old man's former demeanor."
"Okay." It was rare to see Bai Che's serious look, so Qing'er nodded unconsciously.
I saw Bai Che walking slowly, rubbing the statues and walls, sometimes sighing, sometimes sighing. He looked like he was revisiting his old place and remembering the past. This makes Qing'er even more strange.
Unknowingly, the two of them came to a large hall. Bai Che's heart was shocked by a few big characters on the hall: "Eight Views Palace..."
"Do you know these symbols?" Qing'er looked at Bai Che in surprise.
Bai Che nodded without answering, but his eyes showed that he was not lying.
"How do you know these symbols?" Qing'er said, but then she felt that it was not good to question, so she immediately changed her words: "Bai Che, where are you from?"
Bai Che just smiled and didn't answer. After a pause, Bai Che just opened the door and said, "Go in."
The Bajing Palace is still covered with cobwebs and dust. There are several statues erected, but they have all been destroyed and their original appearance cannot be seen.
In the center of the main hall is a Tai Chi and Bagua figure.
Above the Tai Chi Bagua diagram, there are more than a dozen futons, one of which is empty, and the others are sitting cross-legged with a person, who is now a corpse. Above, sitting cross-legged is a golden skeleton...
Seeing this, Bai Che's heart felt like a turbulent wave: Isn't this the dojo he saw in the bronze pot before?
Bai Che suppressed his shock and stepped forward slowly.
"Ah!" Qing'er was frightened when she saw this scene and said, "Bai Che, don't come forward. It's so scary here. Can we go out?"
Hearing this, Bai Che smiled and said, "You stand here and don't move around. I'll come back as soon as I go."
Unable to defeat Bai Che, Qing'er had no choice but to let Bai Che go, while she looked around with all her energy.
Bai Che walked to the futon, and a feeling of sadness suddenly surged into his heart.
Suddenly, a white light flashed in front of Bai Che's eyes. When he opened his eyes, he was standing on a mountain peak. The mountain peak was shrouded in clouds and mist. When he raised his head, he could see the starry sky, with countless stars twinkling brightly.
A white-haired old man was looking at him with a smile. Bai was shocked, but he did not feel his malice.
"My child, are you finally here?" the old man said with a smile, "I have been waiting for you for a long time."
"Ah!" Bai Che was startled and immediately asked, "Are you Senior Li?"
The old man shook his head and said, "My surname is Zhang."
"Zhang?" Bai Che looked suspicious.
When the old man saw this, he smiled and said, "Zhang Daoling."
"Ah?" Bai Che suddenly realized that the old man in front of him was actually the famous Zhang Daoling.
"It turns out to be Tianshi Zhang, Senior Zhang." Bai Che clasped his fists, "I just thought you were..."
"It doesn't matter." Zhang Daoling waved his hand and said, "Many people who enter this place by mistake will think so."
Hearing this, Bai Che nodded and immediately asked: "Senior Zhang, what did you mean when you said you were waiting for me?"
Zhang Daoling smiled and said, "You and I are destined to be together."
"Fate?" Bai Che was confused.
"The relationship between master and apprentice." Zhang Daoling explained.
"Please ask Senior Zhang to clarify his doubts," Bai Che said.
"Everything in the world has cause and effect. If you don't end the cause and effect, no matter how many reincarnations you go through, you can't cut it off. You just need to remember that you and I are destined. I will teach you the Taoist method and give you a chance."
"You will understand when you should understand. Do you know?" Zhang Daoling asked.
"I know." Bai Che nodded, "Disciple Bai Che has met Master."
"There is no need for false etiquette." Zhang Daoling smiled and said: "My child, I will teach you the skills as a teacher."
After saying that, Zhang Daoling waved his hand, and a fragment of the scroll appeared, with thunder faintly flashing on it.
"This is the 'Thunder Controlling Heart Technique'. It is a technique created by me. As the name suggests, it is a technique for controlling thunder for one's own use. The most important thing is that it does not require the gathering of crystal seas and spiritual crystals."
Hearing this, Bai Che asked in surprise: "Master, are you saying that there is no need to gather crystal seas and condense spiritual crystals?" Bai Che paused and said, "Master, don't you have a crystal sea too?"
Zhang Daoling smiled and said: "Not only you and me, but everyone who comes from over there cannot gather the crystal sea and gather the spiritual crystals. The laws and rules we encounter are different, so the things here are not necessarily It suits us, so I created this 'Thunder Controlling Heart Technique' to suit ourselves."
"Disciple understands." Bai Che nodded and asked: "Master, if there is no Jinghai, how can we enter the middle realm?"
"This involves the opportunity that Master mentioned." Zhang Daoling smiled and called out a page. This page shone with golden light and looked extremely extraordinary.
"This is the "Tao Jing". I believe you also have the answer in your heart. It was left by him. Use it to cover up the secrets of this world and open up a new path for you. Use it as a guide to break through the shackles."
"But I have said that everything in the world has cause and effect. One of the costs of covering up the secrets of heaven is the terror of thunder tribulation. But with the 'Heart Control of Thunder', you don't need to worry too much. The second cost is the slow speed of practice. You The spiritual power required is several times or even ten times that of what it is now, and your path to cultivation will be more difficult than ordinary people."
"So, you also need to temper your physical body so that you will not be killed by high-level practitioners." Zhang Daoling continued, "Do you know?"
Bai Che nodded and asked again: "Master, I heard that there is an ancestral road. I wonder if I can walk on it?"
"This is almost a dead end." Zhang Daoling replied: "But it is not that no one has succeeded, but in today's environment, it can be said that it is a dead end. At the end of it, I am afraid that I will get lost and eventually dissipate in the boundless abyss."
Hearing this, Bai Che's eyes were filled with caution.
"But..." Zhang Daoling changed the subject and said: "If you can ensure that you control yourself in the last step, it is also a path that you can walk. You can use it as a reference, and you can combine the path of the "Tao Jing" with the path of the ancestors. Roads combine and new paths are opened.”
"If you follow the ancestral path, you can also use the magic here." Zhang Daoling smiled, "So, you can make your own decision."
"Disciple understands." Bai Che replied.
Zhang Daoling nodded, pointed to the other people sitting on the futon and said: "Disciple, these are your senior brothers. They are all giants now. If there is any danger, you can go find your senior brothers. This is for the master." Leave it to you as your third gift."
"This futon, when you practice on it, has the effect of purifying your mind and can help you practice. This is the fourth gift." Zhang Daoling added.
"Okay, disciple, the teachings as a teacher are over. From now on, it's up to you." Zhang Daoling smiled, feeling very tired.
"Disciple, please remember the kindness of Master in teaching and passing on the inheritance." Bai Che knelt down and kowtowed several times.
"Okay." Zhang Daoling nodded and said, "Disciple, as a teacher, I can only wish you good luck along the way."
"Master, are you leaving?" Bai Che asked after hearing this.
"Fool, I here am just a spiritual body left behind thousands of years ago. Now that you and I have formed a fruit, we will naturally dissipate."
"Yes, Master." Bai Che said a little lonely.
"Fool, we will meet again one day." Zhang Daoling said, "The time has come..."
Zhang Daoling slowly dissipated, as if turning into a sky full of stars, and flew into the starry sky.
"Disciple, I would like to send you my master." Bai Che shouted loudly to the starry sky.
