Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 629 The mystery remains to be solved
"Ten years later?"

After a brief thought, the old Taoist priest understood what the gray-robed Taoist priest was thinking.

Ten years later, it will be the time for the sword-fighting event held once every hundred years in Central Continent. At that time, all the nineteen sects and eight great families in Central Continent will participate.

And this grand event would also be more beneficial to their plans...

After thinking it through, he stood up, bowed, and was about to set off to Feixing Taoist Palace to deliver the message.

But before he walked out of the hall, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked towards the gate of Fushan Changhe Mountain, with a look of surprise and doubt in his eyes.

And it wasn't just him, even the Taoist priest in gray robe and Tianxing were the same. Tianxing was especially stunned, with a look of astonishment.

"This is……"

The old Taoist priest reacted and clicked his tongue, saying, "Daoist Fellow Tianxing, could it be that your sect has accumulated a lot of experience and is now about to explode? In the past few years, it has produced two Nascent Soul cultivators, and now there is another one!"

He paused before finishing his words and continued, "And this infant-forming vibration can actually reach here. This shows that the person who formed the infant must have passed through the seventh level of heavenly thunder. It's really enviable..."

Taoist Tianxing also came to his senses at this time and thought to himself that Chen Mu must have successfully formed his infant spirit.

"I thought that guy was still a little short of the mark, but who would have thought he would be so quick!"

He laughed heartily and complimented the old Taoist priest, "It's fine for anyone else to say that, but why are you saying that? Everyone knows that your clan has a profound heritage. Even if there aren't any of the younger generation right now, there will definitely be some with the seventh-level talent in the future."

Hearing him talk about his family background, the old Taoist priest laughed and said no more.

Taoist Tianxing had no intention of staying after seeing this and just wanted to return to the mountain as soon as possible to witness it, so he immediately stood up and said goodbye, but he did not notice that the gray-robed Taoist's eyes lit up slightly.

"Friend Tianxing, wait a minute!"

Tianxing paused and asked, "Brother Sun, what else do you want?"

The gray-robed Taoist rose to his feet, walked closer, and said with a smile, "Ten years from now, why not let this person go with us..."

Hearing this, Tian Xing frowned and said, "Brother Sun, what do you mean? I, a junior, have only just reached the Nascent Soul stage and have yet to learn the Dao arts and grasp the essence of the Great Dao. How can you join us in such a dangerous undertaking?"

The gray-robed Taoist smiled calmly and said quickly, "Don't misunderstand me, my friend. I am just suggesting this. Whether it works or not is up to you."

Tian Xing's expression softened, and he said, "Tell me about it."

The gray-robed Taoist nodded, his expression calm, and he slowly said, "Fellow Daoist, you also know that the luck of our Northern Plains is not as good as that of the Central Continent. It often takes hundreds of years for a cultivator of the seventh level of talent to emerge, but in the Central Continent, there are cultivators of this caliber from generation to generation, and some even surpass them, achieving the eighth level of Nascent Soul!
Because of this, Fellow Daoist Lihuo and his entourage were restricted in many ways, and Zhongzhou had many complaints.

That’s why I had this thought. If this fellow from your sect could come with us, it would save us a lot of hard work…”

After saying this, he paused for a moment and continued, "As for the Taoist technique that Daoist friend mentioned, there's no need to worry too much.

Since I was able to achieve the seventh level of Nascent Soul, I believe that with these ten years, I should be able to cultivate a Taoist technique and get a glimpse of the basics.

Besides, with us in the lead, there's a high probability that the younger generation won't need to take action."

Taoist Tianxing nodded slowly and fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, the gray-robed Taoist knew that Fushan Changhe had paid a lot, so he thought for a moment and promised: "If you agree to this, my Xuantian Mansion can give your sect a Taoist technique."

The old Taoist priest at the side widened his eyes and shouted anxiously, "Brother Daoist, how can you do this?"

Tian Xing was also quite surprised and asked, "Are you really willing to give it up?"

Taoism is no different from other arts and can be regarded as a traditional art. The gray-robed Taoist has such determination, which shows that he really has his eyes on Chen Mu.

"This is related to Beiyuan's destiny. Why would I be reluctant to give up a mere Taoist technique?"

The Taoist in gray robe smiled slightly, but his eyes were extremely serious.

Tian Xing paused, remaining silent for a moment before nodding and saying, "Brother Sun has a heart of righteousness, and I admire you. As for my junior... I'll get back to him and discuss things, and then I'll get back to you."

The gray-robed Taoist was fine with it and said with a casual smile, "It should be so."

From this, we can also see the status of the Nascent Soul Realm in a sect. Even if he is two generations older than Chen Mu, Tianxing would not take the initiative to do this for him.

"Now that this matter is over, I will take my leave."

Tianxing set off again, but this time there was no one to stop him...

The next day, Nanming Mountain.

Chen Mu sat upright in the palace, his eyes slightly tired.

However, Yun Xi had said yesterday that the external celebration could be omitted, but a private banquet had to be held, so a large banquet was held to celebrate Chen Mu's baby birth with the whole mountain.

He couldn't refuse, so he had to sit down and have fun with his master.

During this period, many disciples came to visit him, just to establish some friendship with him.

Those he was not familiar with were handed over to Yu Chengduan to deal with, but most of them were old acquaintances, so he could not refuse them and had to go in person to toast and exchange cups.

As they went back and forth, even though he had already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, he still couldn't help feeling a little tired.

It’s just that although I’m tired, I don’t say I’m tired. Instead, I enjoy it.

Chen Mu shook his head and smiled, finally feeling a bit calm and began to think about the mysterious water lotus.

"If it is indeed the product of the Heart Demon Tribulation, this object is most likely the Innate Ren Water..."

"But what is Xiantian Renshui?"

"Also, that Immortal Guangcheng clearly said at the end that his soul had returned to his home world, but how did this thing appear here? Could it be..."

His heart trembled, and he thought to himself, "Was Immortal Guangcheng once a cultivator from the Taiyi Xuanling Realm?"

"That immortal named Qingsong mentioned the term '100,000-year immortal path'. If Immortal Venerable Guangcheng is truly from this world, then that must have been a hundred thousand years ago..."

"But if that's the case, I haven't even figured out the Soul Ancestor's inheritance from 30,000 years ago, let alone 100,000 years ago. How can I tell if Guangcheng Immortal Venerable is real or fake?"

"And... the Immortal Realm. The Immortal Realm does exist. This shows that the story recorded in the Soul Ancestor's inheritance about the Soul Ancestor transcending tribulations and ascending to immortality must be true."

"But why has no immortal returned to this world in tens of thousands of years? Could it be that immortals cannot return to the lower world?"

The more Chen Mu thought about it, the more confused he became, and he couldn't figure it out.

It would have been fine if he hadn't experienced this inner tribulation, but the more he knew, the more curious he became.

However, he only knew so little, and with his current understanding, no matter how hard he tried, he could not figure out the real situation.

Just as he frowned, his heart suddenly moved, and he remembered the place where this thing was found, which his father had told him many years ago.

"Jinhong County, Wenyuan Lake..."

He murmured, a thought coming to his mind.

Logically speaking, he should have gone there to explore a little earlier, but after entering the Tao, he was busy with one thing after another and never found a chance to go.

"It seems that I really need to take some time to go back..."

Chen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and could only put it aside for the time being.

When I go and check it out later and get some insights, maybe I’ll suddenly understand...

"Master, Patriarch Tianxing is here!"

Suddenly, Xiao Qi shouted outside, mixed with the orders of Tian Xing Lao Dao.

"Okay, I'll go in and find him myself, don't follow me."

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he immediately stood up to greet him.

But before he could leave, the anxious Taoist Tian Xing came in. As soon as he entered the door, he said loudly:

"Chen Mu, good boy, the ancestor has a good deal here, do you want to take it?"
