Chapter 163 The Man Who Can Turn Back

The seventeenth floor of Tongtian Tower.

In the garden surrounded by the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, Shen Qian sat on a small bench, looked at Shi Dingyan and the others sitting around, shrank his neck uncomfortably, and finally couldn't help but speak.

"Fourth senior brother, can you stop floating above my head, it feels weird..."

"But they are all stinky skins, why should you care?"

Wu Jun opened her mouth quietly, but in the end she drifted to the front and back of Shen under the unkind eyes of Shi Dingyan and others.

"Little brother, what exactly did you go through just now?"

Seeing that the atmosphere returned to normal, Shi Dingyan asked impatiently.

"I probably, maybe... I saw 'Daohai'."

Shen Qian coughed a few times, he still had some doubts and needed to ask for advice, so he didn't hide it.

... Shen Qian didn't expect that the boss Gao Xian slipped away.

"impossible!"

Before Shi Dingyan and others said anything, Liu Changqing immediately jumped up and questioned.

He still can't accept that Shen Qian has really reached the stage of "seeking the way". Doesn't that mean that the two are on the same starting line?

As for the physical gap, the kind of gap that can be easily smoothed over time is also called a gap?
After Liu Changqing calmed down, he also thought about it carefully, how can there be so many kinds of Dao rhymes in someone.

Illusion, it must be an illusion!
"That might really not be 'Dao Hai'."

Shen Qian nodded lightly, thinking back: "Now that I think about it, there is nothing special about that place, it is nothing more than a place surrounded by stars, the universe is reincarnated, and when you look down, you can see the cycle of life and death, the alternation of the sun and the moon, such an ordinary place is definitely not Daohai!"

"..."

Liu Changqing clenched and lowered his fists, and finally sat back silently.

Shi Dingyan and Ling Xiao chuckled, but couldn't hide the admiration and shock in their eyes.

"When a beginner warrior sees Daohai, it's like a fairy tale to talk about this kind of thing." Shi Dingyan sighed.

After Ling Xiao laughed, he became serious again, "Junior Junior Brother, you must never reveal this matter to anyone, not even close relatives!"

Shi Dingyan also nodded seriously, "Yes, this matter is of great importance. You should understand that people will appreciate you if you are a genius to a certain extent, but if it exceeds the scope of understanding, then...you are just a thin line away from 'heterogeneous'."

Liu Changqing also seemed to remember something, frowned and said, "Does anyone still dare to contact Shen Xiangqian, as if there is no such thing as a teacher?"

"It's all about being prepared." Shi Dingyan shook his head.

"Senior brothers, what are you talking about?" Shen Qian wondered.

"Well, since you know the existence of the door, it's okay to tell you something."

Shi Dingyan said, "There are tens of millions of worlds behind the 'gate', and the creatures in them are also different, but there are some races, which are very close to our human race. Of course, it's just the outer skin, but the inner core is completely different. creatures."

"And in the past, such a foreign race once infiltrated into the human race and caused great losses, so..."

Although Shi Dingyan didn't finish speaking, Shen Qian understood.

"Third senior brother is afraid that someone will classify me as this kind of alien?"

"The possibility is very small. After all, you are the teacher's disciple. It's just that Mu Xiuyu will be destroyed by Lin Feng. You already have enough halos. It's not a bad thing to restrain yourself properly." Shi Dingyan laughed.

"I understand." Shen Qian nodded.

"Since you have passed the stage of asking as a beginner, then when you really want to advance to the mountains and seas, you will be able to seek the way much faster."

Ling Xiao said with emotion, "Don't underestimate this step, it can save you at least three to five years."

"That's right, step by step, step by step, I don't bother to be jealous of a freak like you."

Liu Changqing seemed to have adjusted his mentality, and after taking a sip of wine, he said lazily, "I have been lingering on the step of 'seeking the way' for nearly four years, and I have some experience recently, if you have any doubts, you can always ask me. "

"Changqing, it seems that we are really going to make a breakthrough this time?" Ling Xiao heard the difference and asked with a smile.

"Today the teacher helped me again, it's almost done." Liu Changqing also showed some complacency on his face, "I'm sure you will be surprised by my 'Tao'!"

"Then we'll wait and see."

While the few people were chatting and laughing, Wu Jun, who had been looking away from Shen Qian, noticed Shen Qian's strange expression, and suddenly said, "Little brother seems to have something to say?"

Shi Dingyan and the others stopped talking and looked over.

"That what..."

Shen Qian looked a little shy, "I seem to have found the way."

Chirp!

In an instant, the room was terribly quiet, only the lark in the corner uttered a crisp cry.

"Little brother, what did you say?"

Shi Dingyan asked subconsciously, he thought he was hallucinating.

But then Shi Dingyan sensed something was wrong, how could he be hallucinating with such sharp ears?

Moreover, Ling Xiao and others were all in the same sluggish state, and even Wu Jun forgot to continue floating and fell to the ground in a daze.

Shi Dingyan immediately realized that the words just now were not his hallucinations.

"This is impossible!"

Liu Changqing jumped up violently again, the sound was so loud that the roof almost fell over, and the wine bottle in his hand was crushed to pieces.

"You fucking say it again?"

Liu Changqing panted heavily, his eyes widened, and he stared at Shen Qian.

"It should be, I'm actually not too sure, so I want to ask a few senior brothers for advice."

Shen Qian scratched his head.

He knew that it might be hard for several people to accept this question, but Shen Qian felt uncomfortable if he didn't figure it out.

But the teacher is not here, so I can only ask a few senior brothers for advice.

"Tell me in detail."

Shi Dingyan and Ling Xiao looked at each other, and their expressions became serious.

Shi Dingyan waved his hand, as if nothing had changed, but the wind outside the window disappeared instantly.

"Standing at Daohai, I unconsciously wondered how I could go to a higher place and touch the myriad phenomena of the universe."

Shen Qian opened the mouth and said.

Several people listened quietly, all nodded slightly, which was indeed a sign of seeking the way.

"Then... for some reason, a road appeared before my eyes."

Shen Qian recalled the scene in the hang-up record, and the expression on his face was also a bit unbelievable.

"What does that road look like, and what is its direction?" Liu Changqing asked immediately.

"Straight, if you are facing it, of course it is facing the sky."

Shen Qian was somewhat puzzled by Liu Changqing's question.

Aren't the avenues all facing the sky?
"No, Shen Qian, you need to describe it in more detail, what kind of straight is straight, how many forks are there, and also, what is the angle to the sky, how many degrees of inclination...these are all very important!"

Liu Changqing said eagerly.

Seeing that Shen Qian was still ignorant, Shi Dingyan made a gesture of "Be safe and don't be impatient" to Liu Changqing, and explained.

"There are thousands of avenues, each of which is different, but the way is also divided into the true way and the false way. The false way is also called the illusion way. It is destined to be a dead end, but you can't see it at the beginning."

"Is there no way to identify it at all?" Shen Qian was taken aback for a moment before he knew there was such a saying.

"Theoretically not, unless..."

Shi Dingyan shook his head, did not continue, and instead said: "In addition, the angle is also particular. Although the avenues are all facing the sky, the closer to the upright avenue, the easier it is to walk. You should understand the reason."

Shen Qian thought for a while, then suddenly realized.

Although the "Tao" has no substance, it is the road to the highest. Naturally, the shorter the road, the easier it is to walk.

And even elementary school students know that a straight line is the shortest line between two points.

"What's that fork in the mouth?"

Shen Qian asked curiously.

He thought of Tantai Qin's avenue, which was not only almost upright, but also had many forks.

"A fork in the road is a possibility. After all, no one can guarantee that his way will lead to heaven, but the way cannot be turned back. When you make a mistake, the fork in the road is your chance to make up for it."

Ling Xiao explained it in the most easy-to-understand terms.

Shen Qian nodded, which solved a lot of doubts.

Seeing that several seniors were still waiting, Shen Qian said with some uncertainty: "The road in front of me... seems to have no forks."

"There is no fork?"

The faces of Shi Dingyan and others turned ugly.

There is no fork, which means that this road is a "solitary road".

As for Shanhai, who was on a lonely path, his fate was almost not very good.

From the expressions of Shi Dingyan and others, Shen Qian also got a signal, probably knowing that this way is bad, but he was still confused.

Could the system find him a bad path?

Shen Qian didn't quite believe it.

Instead, it was the system's unconventional style that made Shen Qian more confident.

"Junior Brother, you didn't step on it, did you?" Ling Xiao asked hastily as his heart moved.

Shi Dingyan and the others also reacted and looked nervously at Shen Qian.

Although Shen Qian found a lonely path the first time he searched for it, it is not impossible to save. As long as Shen Qian does not take the first step, he can find the direction again.

"I... stepped on it."

Regarding his second doubt, Shen Qian still nodded and said truthfully.

"This……"

Shi Dingyan and the others looked at each other, their faces becoming heavy.

Even Liu Changqing didn't take pleasure in other's misfortune, instead he pointed at Shen Qian and cursed angrily: "Are you a fucking pig, you dare to go without knowing anything, what will you do if it's a dead end!"

"Evergreen!"

Shi Dingyan stopped Liu Changqing, who was a little excited, and sighed in his heart.

Liu Changqing's temperament seems to be casual, but for some reason, he is actually a little bit estranged from these senior brothers and sisters.

Only for Shen Qian, although Liu Changqing wanted to teach him a few words from time to time, but Shi Dingyan knew that it was an expression of intimacy instead.

"Now is not the time to blame Junior Brother, let's discuss what to do." Shi Dingyan collected his thoughts and said.

"I'm afraid we have nothing to do. We can only ask the teacher about this matter." Ling Xiao shook his head.

"Why don't I..."

"Don't even think about it!"

Wu Jun was interrupted by Ling Xiao when he opened his mouth. He rolled his eyes, "Fourth senior brother, what talent is this little junior brother, and he needs to take risks?"

Wu Jun stopped talking.

Shen Qian was confused, but seeing Shi Dingyan's worried expression, he couldn't help it anymore, "Third senior brother, it's actually okay..."

"You don't understand, this is related to the height you can reach in the future, no matter how dazzling you are now, mountains and seas are the most important things on your martial arts path..."

"I'm backing out." Shen Qian had no choice but to say.

Shi Dingyan, who was serious and thoughtful, was taken aback for a moment, "What are you?"

"I said I withdrew, that's the way. I did take a step in, but I withdrew again."

Shen Qian repeated it, and deliberately explained it more clearly.

Then, the house fell into dead silence again.

This time even the larks didn't sing, it was pure dead silence.

After a while, Shi Dingyan took a deep breath and said slowly, "You said you quit a way?"

"It's... impossible, right?"

Liu Changqing controlled the volume this time, but his trembling tone still exposed his chaotic heart.

Ling Xiao was even more straightforward. He came to Shen Qian's side in a flash, pinched his wrist, and felt it carefully.

"How?" Shi Dingyan asked.

Ling Xiao shook his head.

Shi Dingyan heaved a sigh of relief and frowned at the same time, "No, if the Tao collapses, you will definitely be injured, but the Tao cannot turn back. This is a public opinion...Little brother, are you sure you read it correctly?"

"No." Shen Qian shook his head with certainty.

"It's not difficult to verify."

Wu Jun, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "Little brother, where does the road you walk on lead to?"

Shi Dingyan and others also understood what Wu Jun was going to do, and they all looked at Shen Qian.

"First...uh, at the end of that path, there should be a colorful flame."

Shen Qian recalled and said.

"Colorful flames?"

Shi Dingyan closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, then his figure became imaginary in place, and when he solidified again, he already had a heavy book with a simple style in his hand.

"What is this?" Seeing that there was no name on the book, Shen Qian asked curiously.

"This is the teacher's own collection. I borrowed it before and never returned it."

Shi Dingyan said with a smile, "This book records a variety of Dao phenomena that the teacher knows or has seen. Flame is a relatively common Dao. Maybe there will be answers in it."

As he said that, Shi Dingyan opened the book, searched for it several times, and soon his eyes were fixed on a certain page.

"Tell me more about the appearance of the flame."

"The center is colorful, but the edge is as black as ink. If you look closely, it looks a bit like a big bird."

"found it."

Shi Dingyan let out a long breath, shook his head and said with a smile, "As expected of you, this is the Qijue Spirit Flame, one of the Nine Great Lihuos in the heavens, and it is quite ambitious."

Ling Xiao and the others also smiled, which wasn't too surprising.

Although the Tao can reach the sky at the end, it also has strengths and weaknesses.

And this kind of strength is likely to be decided from the very beginning.

For example, if they are both in the way of flames, some people take the most common open fire way, while others take the heavenly way of fire, so naturally they are not on the same level.

It's just that the simpler the way, the easier it is to walk.

"Since you have such an advanced way of fire, then I understand, junior brother, may the flames purify your ugliness."

Wu Jun recited a sentence softly.

boom!
The next moment, Shen Qian's whole body was on fire.

Shen Qian, who hadn't reacted yet, was startled at first, and then let out a "huh".

Because he found that although the fire was huge, he did feel the scorching heat, but there was nothing wrong with him... except for his clothes being burned.

"really!"

Shi Dingyan and the others were shocked because their conjecture had been verified.

"As expected, you have stepped on the Dao of Flame, and you still have Dao Yun on your body, otherwise it would be difficult to explain this scene..."

Really sure, Liu Changqing was a little lost again.

He could sense that Shen Qian really didn't use any vitality, and relied on his body to withstand the attack of the flames.

Even if this is just an ordinary flame, it is impossible below the mountains and seas.

After verifying what Shen Qian said, Shi Dingyan and the others fell into a state of trance.

Most likely they never expected that what Shen Qian said was actually true.

Is there really a way back in this world?
No, to be precise, there are people who can turn back on the road?
As soon as he imagined the scene of Shen Qian jumping back and forth on the "Avenue", Shi Dingyan felt extremely absurd.

What the hell is that...!
