On the stone staircase, the square and square courtyard is extremely clean, and you can hear the chirping of birds from time to time.
The ten words "Incense and sandalwood are strong, the Taoist gate will flourish forever" are written on both sides of the Taoist temple gate, which is very conspicuous.
There are three tall statues of gods erected in the room, which are lifelike and sacred.
Behind the view, there is a huge ginseng tree, one hundred feet high. The ginseng fruits on the branches look like children, crystal clear and full of spiritual power.
Zhao Huai walked to the Taoist temple alone, and Gu Tianji, who accompanied him, helped him prepare the teleportation array.
When he stepped through the door and saw the majestic Taoist statue, he couldn't help but feel solemn in his heart, his face was full of respect, he clasped his hands together and bowed slightly.
"coming."
Suddenly, a voice came from behind, with a smile and appreciation.
Zhao Huai turned around quickly and saw an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.
Wearing a brown Taoist robe, he holds a white whisk and has two black beards on his lips.
Zhao Huai was stunned for a moment, as if remembering something, he bowed and said, "Zhao Huai, a descendant of Yan Zu, has met the senior Guanzhu."
This person's temperament must be that of the master of the Taoist Temple of Immortality.
The Master of the Immortality Temple is one of the five ancestors of the Immortal Sect. He sits in the entire Immortality Cave in the blessed land of Lingshan. He has a profound level of cultivation. Even Zhao Huai's Qi-gazing Technique can only see a cloud of golden mist, which is mysterious. secret.
Among the monks, seniority is judged by virtue and conduct, so it is not wrong for him to call him senior.
The eyes of the Master of Immortality seemed to carry thousands of years, long and deep, containing the vicissitudes of life. He looked at Zhao Huai for a long time and sighed:
"It's so similar. If Yan Ancestor was still there, the world of immortal cultivation would never be as chaotic as it is today. It would not allow world-destroying demonic sources like Beizhou Huangquan to exist in the world, and it would not allow the Xizhou Demon Sect to exist in the Middle Earth. So raging. Unfortunately, they are all gone. The glorious era has passed. If we focus on our predecessors, time will never move forward."
When Zhao Huai was stared at like this, he felt as if his whole body was about to be pierced, but he was not afraid. Instead, his eyes were clear and he asked calmly and generously:
"Senior Guanzhu's words contain a lot of information. I have many questions in my mind. I wonder if I can ask senior to answer them?"
The Master of Changsheng Temple smiled softly and said: "There are some things that you must know. Even if you don't ask, I will tell you."
"Appreciate further details."
Zhao Huai said calmly.
"Sit down first."
The Master of Changsheng Temple took Zhao Huai to a quiet room with antique furnishings. There was a chessboard in the middle, with black and white pieces showing the end of the game.
After sitting down, the viewer turned his head and focused his gaze on Zhao Huai. His expression gradually became solemn and he said: "Ancestor Yan has been a great being in the entire world of immortality in the past eight hundred years, and as his descendant, you have the inherent power in your body. You are burdened with a certain fate, do you understand?"
Zhao Huai disagreed with this and retorted: "Although I am a descendant of Yanzu, I am also a living person. I have my own way of living. I can do whatever I want. Why should I believe in fate."
After hearing these stubborn words, the Master of Changsheng Temple was not angry. Instead, he showed a smile of relief and nodded secretly.
This boy is determined and determined, no wonder he has reached this point.
Zhao Huai took the initiative and asked: "Senior asked me to come because he probably wanted me to know some truths, such as Yan Zu. Could it be that senior has seen Yan Zu with his own eyes?"
The leader of the Changsheng Temple said with a joking smile: "Not only have we met, we are also close friends. I think back then, when I was just an outside disciple of the Taoist Temple, he still helped me a lot."
Then he took a deep look at Zhao Huai and said:
"However, after Yan Zu ascended, he disappeared. In addition, the path to immortality was cut off, and the world of immortality seemed peaceful. In fact, it has been in a delicate balance for the past five hundred years, and disasters may break out at any time."
Zhao Huai nodded and asked, "Senior, what is the source of the world-destroying demon mentioned in Beizhou Huangquan just now?"
"This Huangquan is a demonic thing that was born before the immortal road was cut off, that is, during the great turmoil in the Middle Ages. It continuously produced demonic creatures, but it was suppressed by Yan Zu five hundred years ago. Recently, the disciples of the Immortal Sect Exploration has revealed that more and more monsters are being born, and sooner or later monsters will become a serious problem for the human race." explained the Master of the Immortality Temple.
"The great turmoil in the Middle Ages? Where to start?"
This is not the first time Zhao Huai has heard this term. The last time he heard it was in the narrative of the sword holder.
The master of Changsheng Temple looked deeply and said: "Do you know the meaning of Baofeng, Cave Heaven and Blessed Land?"
"I know, Gu Tianji has already introduced that the Immortal Sect occupies the cave sky, and Lingshan is a blessed place." Zhao Huai nodded quietly.
"Actually, above the blessed land, there is another chance division of the Immortal Family."
The Master of Changsheng Temple said calmly.
"There is one more place."
When Zhao Huai heard this explanation, something seemed to come to his mind.
His pupils narrowed and he said in surprise: "Could it be said that Zhongzhou, Beizhou, and Xizhou are all..."
The leader of Changsheng Temple leisurely said: "You guessed it right, Zhongzhou, Beizhou, and Xizhou are all in the same land of immortals. This last division is called heaven and earth."
"The world here is called the Immortal World."
The words of the Master of Immortality kept echoing in Zhao Huai's mind.
He couldn't help but be stunned.
"The heaven and earth of immortality."
Baofeng, Cave Heaven, Blessed Land, Heaven and Earth.
Are there other worlds?
"Senior means that in addition to the immortal world, there are other unknown places in the world."
Zhao Huai frowned.
The Master of Changsheng Temple nodded and continued to explain: "Yes, Beizhou Huangquan, Xizhou Demon Sect, and even the Demon Sect all invaded from other worlds."
"Thousands of years ago, a fierce immortal war broke out between the immortal world and many heavens and earth, and countless immortals fell. This was the great turmoil in the Middle Ages."
"The end of the Yellow Spring is the world of hell, and the master of the ten demon sects ascended from the world of demons. Five hundred years ago, he was severely injured by Yanzu and sealed in the cold land of the extreme north."
"This is the reason why the Demon Sect has been causing trouble for you. You carry the blood of Ancestor Yan and can break this seal. Therefore, as soon as Master Wuji dies, the Demon Sect comes to look for you impatiently. This is also the main reason why I call you to go up the mountain. reason."
When Zhao Huai heard this, he finally understood.
No wonder the Demon Sect has been lurking around him. As he expected, they were not here for the secret of the ancestral weapon. It turned out that the Demon Lord was behind all of this.
At the same time he couldn't help but think.
There are many heavens and earths in this world, so what does it mean to attain enlightenment and ascend?
Zhao Huai asked again:
"Senior, is there a relationship between this world and the road to ascension? If so, does Senior know why the Immortal Road was cut off eight hundred years ago? I looked through the classics and found that this period of history is avoided."
He has been curious about this question for a long time.
There is no way to get the answer in the ancient books, and the history before and after the immortal road was cut off is completely blank.
To this, the Changsheng Guanzhu quickly gave the answer.
"This is a taboo. Of course it cannot be found in history books. The severance of the immortal path originated from an ascension."
"Before the Immortal Calendar, we call it the Middle Ages. At that time, the world of immortality was far more prosperous than it is now, and there were many more human monks. Monks could become immortals through the path of ascension, but there was a peerless immortal who, after ascension, At this time, the path to immortality was destroyed."
"Only after ascending can one travel across the various heavens and earth. The destruction of the Immortal Road will undoubtedly cut off the way to each heaven and earth."
After saying that, the Master of Changsheng Temple stood up, picked up a black piece, and the energy in his body continued to rise, hanging on the chessboard.
"Today's world of immortality is like a cage. People outside can't get in, and people inside can't get out. This is a dead end."
Zhao Huai looked at the chessboard with a surprised expression. He found that the chessboard in his eyes suddenly changed.
In his eyes, the chess table evolved into a world that was very huge and extremely detailed. Every mountain, every river, every city, and every person was all present.
This is the magical power of an immortal!
In other words, the higher the monk's cultivation level, the different the world he sees.
The world seen by the immortal is like the heaven and earth in the palm of a hand, every detail is clear.
He can even use the power of heaven and earth to change the direction of the chess pieces.
This is the legendary chess game between heaven and earth!
The northern part of the chess game is represented by Beizhou, where there is blood, murderous intent, and black energy surging. It is obviously a dangerous place.
On the chess table, there are a large number of chess pieces arranged together. Some chess pieces are dotted with stars, some chess pieces are shining brightly, and some chess pieces contain power like stars in the sky, releasing explosive power fluctuations.
The bright chess pieces represent the powerful monks with high cultivation level.
The other chess pieces, which are the largest in number, are very dim, densely packed and hard to count, like dust.
The Master of Changsheng Temple frowned slightly and said calmly: "The situation in Beizhou is getting worse and worse. I don't know when trouble will strike. By then, the entire territory of millions of miles on the border of Zhongzhou will become A place where demons plunder.”
Zhao Huai said solemnly: "Is there no solution? The master of the temple can deduce the world and master such magical powers. How can he still not be able to defend against the enemy?"
The Master of the Immortality Temple sighed and said: "The solutions are all at the source. Whether it is the Demon Lord or Huangquan, they came from other worlds. If the immortal road is cut off, this method is destined to be unable to solve it. Now the lifespan of the immortal world seems to have entered a countdown. Every day that passes is one less day. We don’t know how many disasters will befall us in the future. What the Immortal Sect can do is to cultivate the next generation."
"This is what Xianmen has been doing for nearly a hundred years."
"They are all old bones. We can afford to wait for a hundred years, but what about after a thousand years? Can the inheritance of the Xian family lintel continue?"
In this regard, Zhao Huai was silent.
Time is really poison, it will flow away without knowing when.
Especially when he is in retreat.
I was immersed in the small world inside the mirror and practiced for a while. When I came back to my senses, all the spiritual stones were consumed and several months had passed.
The year a mortal lives is every day, but the year he lives is more than two years.
Time passes really quickly.
Finally, the Master of Changsheng Temple focused his attention on Zhao Huai and solemnly said:
"The glorious Great Yan Empire in the past has been destroyed, but in your generation, it has been restored again. Your mission is long and arduous. You not only represent the world, but also hope to represent the immortal sect. I hope you can be like the original Yan Ancestor, Rising again and shining brightly can maintain the future of the world of immortality."
When Zhao Huai came out of the Taoist temple, he was still in a heavy mood.
But the truth is often so heavy.
"Your Highness, are you out? What did Master tell you? You look so bad."
Gu Tianji on the side was already waiting at the door. When he saw Zhao Huai's figure, he immediately came over with a smile.
Zhao Huai breathed out and smiled slightly: "It's nothing, I just said some things I haven't heard before."
He has never been a pessimist.
In his opinion, if you can live one day, it is one day, and there is no need to worry too much about tomorrow.
When trouble comes, just cut it off.
Gu Tianji's heart moved slightly, and he guessed what the master might say, and comforted: "These things are a bit heavy, but you should encourage them in time, time is not kind to anyone, there is nothing that a pot of wine cannot solve, Your Highness Why don't you go have a drink with me?"
"Brother Gu is right. If you drink, forget it. My wife doesn't like me drinking. I'm not used to it."
Zhao Huai agreed very much and then said seriously.
Gu Tianji chuckled and said, "Tsk, tsk, you're such an infatuated person. Okay, it's up to you."
"Should we go to Wuji Immortal Sect first, or make swords? I suggest we make swords first, and say hello and get in line. In this Lingshan Mountain, there are many people who want to make magic weapons from Master Ruan Ban every day. "
"Okay, just listen to Brother Gu."
Zhao Huai thought of something and said seriously: "Brother Gu has helped me so much. It would be too much to call me His Highness. You and I will treat each other as brothers."
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that His Highness is also a temperamental person. Okay, then I will call you Brother Zhao. I am determined to make you my friend."
Gu Tianji looked very happy, his eyes narrowed as he smiled.
Later, Zhao Huai followed Gu Tianji to a main hall.
The underground spiritual veins are connected, and the formation inscriptions are carved around it. The spiritual energy can be absorbed at any time and transmitted to any place in Lingshan.
"call out!"
Accompanied by a sudden spin.
Zhao Huai came to a large black mountain. It was like a garbage dump, a mess, but the ground was not garbage, but various discarded magic weapons.
They piled up into hills of various colors.
"Ouch!"
There is a burning fire on the top of the mountain, like a meridian, flowing in all directions of Tianduan Mountain, and the waves of fire turn into the shadows of various strange beasts.
"This is the Tao Fire of Ten Thousand Beasts. It is the source of the fire forged in Tiandian Mountain. It is also the opportunity of Fang Baofeng. The forging of any magic weapon cannot be separated from him." Gu Tianji explained aloud.
The two of them soon entered a mountain villa, and the men who came in and out were all tall and strong men, shirtless.
"Keng!"
"Keng!"
The incessant sound of iron knocking came from the manor.
Zhao Huai met many people on the road. They also knew how to forge magic weapons, but they were just apprentices.
"It's Gu Tianji who's here."
"He came to have sex with Master for free again?"
"I guess so."
Seeing Zhao Huai and Gu Tianji, many people were chattering.
Zhao Huai had a strange look on his face and glanced at Gu Tianji with questioning eyes.
Gu Tianji, on the other hand, coughed in embarrassment and resolved the matter.
After passing through the front hall, there is a display area at the back. There are all kinds of magic weapons, whether they are swords, spears, axes, rings, necklaces, etc., they are all shining with spiritual light and placed in the display cabinets.
"You little bastard, why are you here again?!"
As they walked, a thick curse came from a large hall.
An old man with a big nose and a beard half a meter long walked out of the shop. His face was ashen and angry, as if he had been deceived.
"You're just going to use the magic weapon I made as a gift, and then go pick up other female disciples of the sect, right?"
"Oh, it's such an old story, why are you mentioning him?"
Gu Tianji smiled sheepishly.
"Calm down, it's not the case this time."
The big-nosed old man snorted coldly: "Hmph! Gu Tianji, I won't help you no matter what this time."
"This time it's not me who wants to create a natal magic weapon, but this one. Why can't you just do it?"
Gu Tianji pointed at Zhao Huai beside him.
The big-nosed old man cast his cold eyes on Zhao Huai. After looking at him carefully, he finally shook his head and said:
"It's all the same, don't make it!"
"Tsk! No, do you know who he is?"
Gu Tianji looked confused. He had promised Zhao Huai and he had to fulfill it.
"It's the same for everyone."
The big-nosed old man said calmly.
Gu Tianji introduced: "This is Prince Dayan. I heard that you can create the best magic weapon, so I came here. You can't let people return without success."
"And this time I will pay, no, the Taoist temple will pay, and there will definitely be no credit."
"Prince Dayan, is he the descendant of Yan Zu who has been making a lot of rumors recently?"
Hearing this name, the old man with a big nose showed a little surprise in his eyes and looked at Zhao Huai again.
"Speaking of which, there is still some connection between me and Ancestor Yan."
The big-nosed old man began to think and muttered softly.
Seeing this, Gu Tianji shouted: "This time I will add ten bottles of Thousand-Year Dragon Liquor, which can be regarded as a big investment!"
"I'll count on you being honest this time."
When the big-nosed old man heard this, he snorted coldly at Gu Tianji, then faced Zhao Huai, his expression softened a little, and he said softly:
"Come in with me."
As the three of them walked, the big-nosed old man couldn't help turning his head and asked:
"Little brother, what kind of magic weapon do you want to create?"
Zhao Huai thought for a moment and replied:
"A sword, a sword strong enough."
