There is the Yan tribe. The cave where the tribe first lived has now become the tribe’s ancestral land, a place for totem worship, and the place where the tribe’s destiny and beliefs depend.
Since the acquired spiritual root - Fire Jade Lingzao took root more than thirty years ago, this place has become a forbidden area for the Yan clan. Except for large-scale sacrifices, ordinary tribesmen are no longer allowed to enter this place.
After the old patriarch, Rui, took over the task of receiving visits from fellow human race members, he began to stay here for a long time. In order to avoid affecting the lives of ordinary tribesmen, he set up formations outside the forbidden area to completely isolate the inside and outside.
Therefore, although this place plays an important role in the Youyan clan, few people come here on weekdays.
But at this time, a figure suddenly appeared outside the forbidden area. The figure appeared so suddenly that even the old patriarch who was resident in the forbidden area did not notice it.
I saw that after the visitor paused briefly outside the forbidden area, he was not hindered by the formation at all. He walked leisurely through the formation and entered the forbidden area.
"Who?" It was only then that the old patriarch in the forbidden area noticed the person coming and shouted loudly.
"Old patriarch, it's me!" Yan Wenyan looked away from the extraordinary 100-foot sacred tree in front of him, smiled and turned to look at the two people who rushed out of the cave, and smiled at the old patriarch who spoke.
After greeting the old patriarch, Yan turned his eyes to the figure next to him, and then said with a smile: "Yu, you are here too!"
"Brother, you're out of seclusion!" Yu's eyes lit up when he saw Yan, and he happily came to Yan's side and spoke first.
"Yan, you're out of seclusion! Why didn't you say hello in advance? I thought you were an enemy!" After greeting him with a smile, the old patriarch complained affectionately.
Yan smiled nonchalantly and nodded to the two of them. He first said to the clan leader: "I just came out of seclusion just now. clan leader, you have worked hard these years!"
"It's hard work, it's good for the tribe, I'm happy with it." The old patriarch naturally knew what Yan meant. But he obviously doesn't think so.
"Over the years, I have lived here for a long time, either receiving Taoist friends from all over the world, chatting about Taoism, or studying Taoism and mysteries in this small area, and creating a fairyland in the world of mortals. I feel very relaxed and free, and there is no need to worry! "
Yan Wenyan took a serious look at the old patriarch and saw that his three treasures of essence and energy were active and full. Not only did his cultivation level not drop at all, but he had improved a lot.
Obviously, he really did what he said, and he was happy to live among the common people of the tribe and receive Taoist friends from all over the world without any reluctance.
"That's good!"
Seeing this, Yan nodded and said nothing more. After all, everyone’s nature is different and their approach is naturally different. The trivial matters in the human world that Yan could not avoid, but in the eyes of the old patriarch, they were nothing short of a thoroughfare.
As he said this, Yan turned to look at Yu, smiled slightly and asked: "Yu, I see you seem to be here forever. What's going on?"
At the end of the sentence, although there was still a smile on Yan's face, his eyes became more serious.
On the one hand, the Youyan clan has long established the rules of separation between immortals and mortals.
In recent years, even if the tribe has promoted the Ancestral God to be granted amnesty, they have already established the priesthood of the Ancestral God City God. Unless there is a critical moment of survival, he can only serve as the tribe's heritage and cannot interfere with the tribe's common affairs.
For a cultivating immortal like Yan, even though he comes from the tribe, if not necessary, he will tacitly leave the tribe after entering the fairyland and choose a unique place.
Even after hundreds of years of evolution, the Youyan clan has continued to grow and develop, and this rule has begun to gradually integrate into the general trend of the tribe's destiny, and in turn has evolved some different influences.
Just like now, Yan can clearly feel that there is an aura of humanity in the tribe that is made up of the chaos of worldly beliefs, luck and cause and effect of the tribe and many tribesmen.
It permeates the tribe, and it vaguely rejects and suppresses the natural way of heaven and earth. Affected by this, the spiritual power of heaven and earth seems a lot heavier, and it is obviously not as active as outside.
The reason why the old patriarch could not be affected by this and live contentedly in the tribe's forbidden area was also because he had a deep connection with the Youyan clan and was connected by fate.
Such a situation is naturally not a good thing for those immortals, demons, gods and ghosts who enter the Youyan clan, but for the Youyan clan, it has an extra layer of protection.
In fact, Yan could vaguely see from this change the great prosperity of the human race in later generations, and the grand occasion of the transformation of gods and ghosts.
Therefore, Yan will not allow anyone to disrupt this general change under any circumstances.
Of course, in addition to this reason, Yan is also worried that Yu has been lingering in the world of mortals for a long time, his Taoist heart is dusty, and he has neglected his practice.
Although, among Yan's younger brothers and sisters, Yu has always been the one who feels most at ease. But Yu has been growing up under the protection of Yan. Although his Taoist heart is pure, he lacks some experience after all, which is not very reassuring.
Yu knew his eldest brother very well, and when he heard his question, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes slightly, and said with caution: "You are really my good eldest brother!
I enter the Tao through healing poisons and the nature of all things, and then seek for good fortune. The acquired spiritual root of Huoyu Lingzao uses water and soil to produce wood, wood to produce fire, and fire to refine gold. It contains the principles of generation and restraint of the five elements, which is of great benefit to me.
how? You didn't tell me when you planted this spiritual root earlier. Now that I want to use it to learn Taoism and enlightenment, do you still want to blame me? "
"Haha! I was in a hurry to retreat and forgot about it. It's all my fault." Yan laughed out loud in embarrassment when he heard this, and quickly apologized.
"Yan, you came here immediately after leaving seclusion. Is there something wrong?" The old patriarch spoke in time to relieve Yan's embarrassment.
Yan Wenyan's face straightened up, he turned to look outside the tribe, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he said: "The tribe's luck is different, the mountain is back."
"Shan is back? Where is he? I'll pick him up." Yu heard the words and looked happy. Yuanshen and Fayan looked in the direction of Yan at the same time, asking questions one after another, and planned to rush to greet him.
It is said that since Shan left the tribe, Yan specifically asked the immortals and tribesmen not to help him because he wanted to use it to temper him.
Even, because they were worried that my mother and several younger brothers and sisters would be soft-hearted, they deliberately asked them not to visit and disturb them. Now, it has been decades since we last met.
Although decades are not a long time for a true immortal like Yu, Shan has not yet become an immortal. Although he has cultivated his body and has a longer life than ordinary people, he has not achieved transcendence after all.
Therefore, Ning and Yu have been worried about Shan's condition in recent years.
Now that he heard that Shan was back, Yu was even more excited than when he saw Yan just now. After all, among the blood relatives of Yan Yan, Shan is the only one who has not yet achieved enlightenment, so he is naturally more concerned by everyone.
"Stay here honestly and let Shan finish the last journey on his own." Yan grabbed Yu, glared at him fiercely, and said with a smile on his lips.
