I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 748 Reunion After Three Hundred Years

Although there are no secular rules about men and women among practitioners, there are still certain taboos. At least, it seems a bit unbelievable that all of this is happening to my disciple.

Moreover, it seemed to be the first time in all these years that she had seen him laugh so happily.

Yun Yinghe frowned slightly.

Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't bother with such things, but with a great calamity imminent, Li Miaoxuan's attainment of the Chaotic Heaven Realm was far too important.

He is only a little over three hundred years old. If worldly affairs disturb his mind, it will inevitably bring unnecessary variables to the time when he is about to undergo tribulation.

Moreover, the Nine Tribulations of the Spirit Ruins Scripture involves a transformation with each tribulation, and each tribulation is equally dangerous, which makes it impossible for her not to worry.

She was on her way there when she suddenly received a message from her disciple saying that an old friend had come to the mountain, so she was going to see him.

At this critical juncture of breaking through the Great Calamity of Chaos, which old friend is worth breaking through to meet?

In the courtyard, Gu Yuanqing looked up at the distance, his gaze seemingly able to pierce through layers of clouds and mist. With a slight smile, he said, "That person in the distance must be your master, right?"

Li Miaoxuan slowly surveyed the guest courtyard where Gu Yuanqing was temporarily staying, nodded slightly, and said in her clear and cold voice, "Yes, she happened to be at Shixu Peak when I came from the mountains today."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanqing chuckled and said, "Now that you are the senior disciple of the Lingxu Sect, and you are about to undergo your tribulation, countless eyes and minds of the entire Lingxu Sect are focused on you. Aren't you afraid of causing any unnecessary trouble by coming straight here after leaving seclusion?"

Li Miaoxuan turned her head to the side, her eyes slightly smiling as she looked at Gu Yuanqing, and asked in return, "So, this is why you stopped at the foot of the mountain this morning?" She paused slightly, then continued, "According to Cheng Yi, you have reached the Chaotic Heaven Realm. With this level of cultivation, if you really wanted to quietly ascend the mountain, the restrictions and formations of the Time Peak should not be able to stop you."

Gu Yuanqing chuckled and said, "It's not entirely because of that. After all, you are about to undergo your tribulation. If I were to force my way in, it might disturb your cultivation, which would be a loss. As for meeting, since I have come to the Lingxu Sect, it's just a matter of sooner or later. There's no rush."

Li Miaoxuan looked up in the direction of her master and said, "My master is actually very good to me. If it weren't for her helping me get rid of many worldly troubles, I might not have the cultivation and realm I have now."

Gu Yuanqing chuckled teasingly, "You mean Xiao from the Yunmeng Holy Land..."

Li Miaoxuan rolled her eyes at Gu Yuanqing.

Gu Yuanqing immediately shut his mouth, realizing he had said the wrong thing.

The two stood in front of the pond in the courtyard, watching the bright moon reflected in the water.

Li Miaoxuan then said, "Gu Yuanqing."

"Hmm?" Gu Yuanqing turned to look at Li Miaoxuan.

"Are my father and Cheng Yi alright?" Li Miaoxuan asked.

Gu Yuanqing nodded: "All is well. Before I left the mountains, Cheng Yi broke through to the Yin-Yang Realm, and your father is already a Heavenly Transformation cultivator."

Li Miaoxuan smiled slightly: "That's good. Three hundred years ago, when I left Daqian and came to this Spirit Realm from the Heavenly Path, the thing I couldn't let go of the most was them. I said I was severing my worldly ties, but how easy is it to sever them? I should thank you. If it weren't for you, I don't know if I would have regretted leaving Daqian."

“Every drink and every bite is preordained, and everything has a cause. It was because you saved me in front of your father that everything that happened later came about. So if anyone should be thanking someone, it should be me saying thank you,” Gu Yuanqing said.

Li Miaoxuan sighed softly: "I heard that you have been cultivating in seclusion in the mountains for the past few hundred years and have never gone out, is that right?"

Gu Yuanqing hesitated for a moment and said, "Did Cheng Yi tell you?"

Li Miaoxuan stared at Gu Yuanqing for a moment, then laughed and asked, "Alright, since you're thanking me, then I happen to have something I need your help with."

Gu Yuanqing said, "Go ahead and speak."

Li Miaoxuan said, "I remember back in the battlefield outside the domain, you brought Cheng Yi back to Qianyuan Island directly from a distance. Now that the Chaos Tribulation is imminent, I would like to see my father and Cheng Yi again before that happens, even if it's just an avatar!"

Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "This is simple, but do you want to let your master and the others know?"

Li Miaoxuan shook her head and said, "No need, it's just a short time away, it's not a big deal."

"You mean go back now?" Gu Yuanqing asked.

"Is there anything we need to prepare?" Li Miaoxuan was also a little curious. Even she found such methods somewhat unbelievable.

Gu Yuanqing said, "No need for that. As long as you are ready, you can go back anytime."

“Let’s go then!” Li Miaoxuan said.

Gu Yuanqing nodded, made a hand seal, and a spiritual rune flew out and disappeared into the array artifact hidden in the courtyard. Then, an array was activated, completely separating the inner and outer auras. Unless the outsiders broke the array, they could not possibly see what was inside.

"Give me your hand!" Gu Yuanqing stretched out his hand.

Li Miaoxuan was unpretentious and naturally shook hands with Gu Yuanqing.

Then I felt the world change, and I found myself at the edge of a cliff on a mountaintop.

The surrounding scenery was somewhat familiar, yet also strange.

Gu Yuanqing's clone merged into his main body, and he smiled slightly: "Do you remember this place?"

Li Miaoxuan looked down at the cliff, then looked back, and was shocked. She said, "This is Beiquan Mountain? I came down from here back then! The mountain is so different now!"

Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Yes, there have been quite a few changes, but the overall layout of the mountaintop is not much different from before."

Li Miaoxuan sensed that the spiritual energy here was even more concentrated than that in the Blessed Land of Spiritual Wonder.

Furthermore, the laws governing the heavens and earth around here seem to be no different from those in the cultivation world.

"Is this really the Twelfth Realm of Ding?" Li Miaoxuan asked.

Gu Yuanqing said with his hands behind his back, "This is now the Qian Yuan Realm, which is also one of the Linglong Realms!"

Li Miaoxuan gazed at the mountain scenery for a moment before saying, "No wonder Cheng Yi hesitated and was unwilling to say much when I asked him back then. It turns out he was afraid of revealing the secret of this place. However, you really had better not reveal it, otherwise, I'm afraid trouble will follow one after another."

The Linglong Realm is rich in resources, with countless rare treasures. Countless sects and cultivators in the cultivation world are searching for a way to enter it, but it seems that apart from the Trial Path, there is no other way to enter. If someone knew you had a connection between the two realms, even if you were a Chaos Heaven cultivator, I'm afraid… unless you never travel in the cultivation world again!”

Gu Yuanqing smiled and nodded, offering no rebuttal. He naturally wouldn't intentionally reveal these secrets, but now that things had progressed, there was no need to be as vigilant as before. He wouldn't dare claim to be invincible in the outside world, but here at Beiquan Mountain, there was almost no one he could fear!
Li Miaoxuan saw Gu Yuanqing's confidence. Although she didn't know whether Gu Yuanqing underestimated everyone or had some extraordinary means, she didn't press the matter further. Everyone was a cultivator and had their own decisions and opinions.

"Where are Cheng Yi and my father? Aren't they in the mountains?" Li Miaoxuan couldn't help but scan them with her divine sense.

"Wait a moment!" With a thought, Gu Yuanqing and the two of them changed their figures and returned from the mountains to the small courtyard.

Li Miaoxuan was slightly taken aback, surprised by Gu Yuanqing's methods. Even with some preparation, she couldn't detect any trace or sign of such spatial manipulation. However, she quickly suppressed her emotions and focused her attention on the courtyard.

“Nothing has changed from before.” Li Miaoxuan chuckled, her fingers tracing the stone table where the two of them used to sit and talk.

Gu Yuanqing pointed to a room and laughed, "After you stayed in this room, no one else has ever stayed in it."

Just as Li Miaoxuan was about to speak, she suddenly saw a streak of light arrive in an instant.

Li Chengyi arrived in the courtyard, overjoyed, and knelt down, saying, "Greetings, Mother!" "Chengyi, get up quickly." Li Miaoxuan hurriedly helped him up, then looked him over for a moment and smiled, "Not bad, in less than a hundred years, you have already become a Yin-Yang cultivator, almost catching up with your mother."

Li Chengyi said, "How can I compare to my mother? I still need to work harder!" Then he turned to Gu Yuanqing and said, "Father has finally decided to bring Mother back."

Gu Yuanqing was slightly embarrassed: "I've been too busy these past few years to be able to attend to everything. Besides, your mother is at a crucial stage of her cultivation, so how could I disturb her?"

Li Miaoxuan glanced at Gu Yuanqing.

Li Chengyi smiled and said, "Mother, please don't blame Father. There have indeed been many things that have happened over the years. Besides, he hasn't forgotten you. Your painting has been hanging in his room for many years..."

At this point, Li Chengyi suddenly realized that he couldn't make a sound at all.

Li Miaoxuan covered her mouth and smiled sweetly. She was also a Yin-Yang cultivator, so when Li Chengyi brought up the matter, she naturally "saw" the portrait in Gu Yuanqing's room.

This painting was hung in Gu Yuanqing's room by Li Chengyi when Gu Yuanqing was affected by the spirit of the Wuliang River. Later, he recovered, but the painting remained here until Li Miaoxuan saw it today.

Gu Yuanqing felt even more embarrassed. It wasn't a big deal, but the person in question had seen it. Now, if he tried to cover it up, it would only be a matter of a moment's hesitation, but that would only make him look like he was burying his head in the sand.

Li Chengyi stood next to Li Miaoxuan, pointed to his mouth, and then pointed to Gu Yuanqing.

Li Miaoxuan suddenly snorted and said, "Hurry up and lift the ban, or I, your mother, will never forgive you!"

Gu Yuanqing reluctantly untied it.

Li Chengyi protested again, "Mother, you must stand up for me. Father has bullied me a lot while you've been gone. What happened just now is just the norm. I was only able to speak for at least three days if you were here today."

Gu Yuanqing looked at Li Chengyi with unfriendly eyes.

Li Chengyi seemed frightened and hid behind Li Miaoxuan, winking at Gu Yuanqing as if to say, "I'm helping you!"

Li Miaoxuan was well aware of these subtle actions, but she didn't expose them. She looked at the father and son with a charming smile, but the fact that there was a portrait of herself in Gu Yuanqing's room made her heart flutter slightly.

Just then, another figure hurriedly pushed open the courtyard gate and entered.

Li Haotian stood at the courtyard gate, staring blankly at Li Miaoxuan.

The three people inside the house also stopped fighting.

Li Chengyi also stepped aside.

Li Miaoxuan walked slowly forward and gave a graceful bow: "Daughter greets Father."

Li Haotian was excited, but his face seemed to be filled with anger. He snorted coldly, "You still know how to come back? I thought you had forgotten that you still have a father in Daqian!"

……

Gu Yuanqing left the courtyard and went to the pavilion by the mountain, leaving the small courtyard to the father and daughter. They had so much to say to each other.

In comparison, he and Li Miaoxuan had only met a few times. If it weren't for Li Chengyi as a link between them, they might have already forgotten each other.

Perhaps they feel something special and have some affection for each other, but perhaps they haven't reached the point of true love yet.

Gu Yuanqing didn't force anything; he just let things take their natural course.
About an hour and a half later.

Accompanied by Li Chengyi, Li Miaoxuan walked slowly towards them. When they were about a hundred feet apart, Li Chengyi stopped, whispered something, and then took his leave.

Li Miaoxuan arrived at the pavilion, leaned on the railing and looked down. Her clothes fluttered in the breeze, revealing her slender figure.

“You could once see the Dangyanshan Waterfall from here!” Li Miaoxuan said.

With a gentle wave of his hand, Gu Yuanqing dispersed the clouds and mist, and the Dangyan Mountain at the foot of the mountain seemed to suddenly shrink in distance and appear before his eyes.

Li Miaoxuan gazed at the waterfall and said, "It's beautiful. Although I've seen all sorts of wonders in the cultivation world, seeing this scenery of my hometown feels even more special."

Gu Yuanqing said, "You can come back anytime if you want to see it."

“You said it yourself!” Li Miaoxuan turned around.

Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "I keep my word!"

“That’s fine then,” Li Miaoxuan said.

Gu Yuanqing also stood up, standing shoulder to shoulder with him, looking at the scenery below the mountain, and said, "Shall we send you back to the Lingxu Sect first?"

Li Miaoxuan turned her head to the side and said, "What? Are you trying to get rid of me?"

Gu Yuanqing said helplessly, "How could that be? It's been two hours in total. If you don't go back soon, your master will probably be worried. Besides, your grand arrival will affect your reputation in the Lingxu Sect if word gets out."

Li Miaoxuan smiled and said, "What's so important about empty fame? It might even save us some trouble. I don't want to leave now. Cheng Yi said that he will send Guanrong, Siyuan and the other children into the mountain tomorrow. It's been so many years, but I, as their grandmother, have never seen them before. I must see them before this tribulation."

Gu Yuanqing turned around and looked at Li Miaoxuan seriously: "Miaoxuan, you can actually undergo your tribulation here in Beiquan Mountain. I can guarantee that it is safer here than Lingxu Sect."

Li Miaoxuan also turned to look at Gu Yuanqing. Their eyes met, and after a moment, she smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is just the Chaos Tribulation, just a small step on the path of cultivation. If I have to rely on others for even this, how can I go further? Besides, I have my own plans for undergoing the tribulation at the Lingxu Sect."

Gu Yuanqing could see the confidence in her eyes and words, as if the Chaotic Tribulation meant nothing to her!
……

Yun Yinghe did not return to her own mountain peak today, but waited at the summit of Shixu Peak.

But as the night passed and dawn broke, Li Miaoxuan still hadn't returned.

Her expression turned slightly somber.

A moment later, Mu Chuxia arrived at the top.

"Master, Senior Sister still hasn't returned?"

Yun Yinghe frowned slightly and said, "Don't make this public. Just tell everyone that your senior sister is still in seclusion in the mountains! That way, we can avoid any unnecessary trouble."

"Yes, disciple understands."

Yun Yinghe nodded gently: "You may leave now. Today is just like any other day."

Mu Chuxia left immediately. She had a feeling that something had happened, but her master forbade her to ask, so she didn't dare to.

Yun Yinghe waited at the mountaintop. After a while, a crane flew over, landed in her hand, and turned into a paper crane. The paper crane burned, and a wisp of spiritual light entered her sea of ​​consciousness.

This contains information about the Ji Zi Yuan - Zhu You Yuan.

"Gu Yuanqing, from Beiquan Mountain? You've come bearing the Star Token from the Sacred Land of Spiritual Treasures?"
