The Fate of Eternal Life

Chapter 8 Preaching and Farewell

Ye Fan was almost dragged by Ning Qingyi to walk across the nine mountains, so much so that when he returned to the starting point again, Ye Fan was still a little dizzy.

Ye Fan looked at Ning Qingyi with resentment and said, "There's no need for you to be so anxious."

Ning Qingyi rolled his eyes. Although one of the people hidden in the ancient forbidden underground was a great saint and the other was the number one female gold brick in the universe, who knew if the slaves of the wilderness would go crazy and rush out to take the two away directly.

He had just been burning with the small destiny technique to calculate whether there was any danger. Otherwise, he would have been so careless as to think that he could do whatever he wanted with Ye Fan. He really didn't know how to write the word death.

Ning Qingyi said, "Alright, stop being so ungrateful. With the Nine Wonderful Immortal Medicine to build your foundation, there are not many people in history who can compare to you."

Ye Fan was full of energy, his eyes shining as he looked at the Luofu Ding hanging around his neck and said, "Qingyi, is this immortal medicine really that powerful?"

Ning Qingyi said solemnly, "The Immortal Elixir is a treasure that has been coveted by the ancient Celestial Lords, Ancient Emperors, and Great Emperors. If others knew that it was used to build your foundation, they would probably strip you alive and use it to make the elixir."

Ye Fan shuddered, but then thought: "No, you just said that there are not many people who can compare to me. Is there actually some?"

Ning Qingyi said, "Yes, but there are only a few of them, no more than a handful of them. Once they appear in the world, they will be earth-shaking figures, with the potential to become great emperors."

Ye Fan frequently heard him say a word, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What kind of figure is the Great Emperor in the cultivation world?"

Ning Qing was stunned for a moment and sighed, "He is an unparalleled figure who has astonished the entire universe for an entire era. He only appears once in tens of thousands of years."

Ye Fan couldn't help but reveal a leisurely and fascinated expression.

"Okay, this is not the place to chat, let's go."

Ning Qingyi brought Ye Fan back to the original place, but found that there were a few people missing from the team. He frowned and asked, "Why are there a few people missing?"

"Ye Zi, Ayi, you guys are back?" Pang Bo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "When Liu Yunzhi saw you guys leave, he said he wanted to take a walk too. Li Changqing, Wang Yan, and the others followed."

Ning Qingyi's expression turned cold. "I just told you not to wander around. Stay here."

He looked at them one by one: Wang Ziwen, Zhou Yi, Li Xiaoman, Zhang Ziling, Liu Yiyi, Lin Jia, and Cade. These seven people looked uneasy under his gaze.

Ye Fan asked: "Do you want to go find them?"

"No need. It seems that the incident on Mars hasn't taught them a lesson enough." Ning Qingyi flatly refused: "Wait for them for three more minutes. If they don't come back, I'll take you out."

Everyone was shocked, even Ye Fan was a little surprised.

"Ning Qingyi, can't you go and wait for them a little longer? Even ten more minutes would be fine." The kind-hearted Liu Yiyi spoke up. She originally wanted to ask if she could go look for them, but then she felt that it seemed too much.

Ning Qingyi shook his head and said, "I'm not their parent. There's no reason for me to risk my life for their recklessness. If you have connections with them, you can wait for them here. Heading east, we'll definitely be able to leave this forbidden area in a day and a night at most."

Everyone fell silent immediately. Their relationship with Liu Yunzhi and the others was not very good. Liu Yiyi, who spoke out, was even looked down upon by Liu Yunzhi and the others many times. It was simply inertia that influenced them, making them maintain the "normality" around them.

Time passed in such a solemn atmosphere, and soon three minutes were up.

"Walk."

Ning Qingyi did not hesitate and directly used the Luofu Ding to catch everyone, then rode the divine rainbow into the sky at lightning speed. He did not stop when passing through the Heavenly Palace. The mountains and rivers on the earth kept retreating until he stopped right before leaving.

He shook Ye Fan and the others out and said, "If we go another hundred meters, we will probably be out of the ancient forbidden land."

Everyone looked at each other, and when they thought about Ning Qingyi's behavior of abandoning Liu Yunzhi and others just now, they had a bad feeling.

Ning Qingyi shook his head: "It's not what you imagine. I've heard that there is the power of time in the ancient forbidden land. If I take you out directly, I'm afraid something unpredictable will happen."

Zhou Yi boldly asked: "You said the power of time, what will happen to us after we get out?"

Ning Qing has always said: "There's a high probability that I'll age by several dozen years and lose my youth."

Everyone was shocked and some couldn't believe it. Even Ye Fan, who had just learned about it, was shocked.

"However, this will also be a blessing in disguise for you. The 'Sea of ​​Bitterness' will be activated, and you will achieve twice the result with half the effort when you embark on the path of cultivation."

Everyone suddenly became confused.

"Okay, let's move forward. There's no time for you to hesitate." Ning Qingyi was in no mood to stay with them and struggle. He came to the outside world despite the erosion of the ancient forbidden land.

The people who were left there looked at each other, hesitant and not knowing what to do.

In the end, Ye Fan took the lead and walked towards the outside first, followed closely by Pang Bo. Zhou Yi, Wang Ziwen and others looked at each other and followed with gritted teeth.

Soon something strange happened.

"Why do I feel hot..."

Ye Fan muttered in his heart, but before he could figure it out, Pang Bo behind him shouted in shock.

"Ye Zi, why are you so red!"

Ye Fan lowered his head and saw the skin that was so red that it was about to bleed, and his breathing was extremely hot, as if there was a raging fire burning.

'Is this a curse?'

Ye Fan thought to himself, he looked at Ning Qingyi who was staring at him motionlessly in front of him, thought of what he had said, gritted his teeth and insisted on moving forward.

Soon he fell down in pain, feeling as if his flesh and blood were being peeled off, and his whole body was in pain as if being cut by a knife. He held on for a short while before fainting. When he turned around, he saw that the people following him had already fainted.

"I feel like I've been deceived?"

This was his last thought before he fainted.

That's right, Ning Qingyi didn't say a word. In fact, they were only three or five meters away from the edge of the ancient forbidden area. After all, he was not interested in providing psychological counseling to everyone and taking this step.

Seeing that everyone had fainted on the road, Ning Qingyi used his innate energy to roll everyone in front of him.

Under the power of the ancient forbidden land, everyone aged rapidly. Looking around, there were white heads and wrinkled skin, like old people in their seventies or eighties.

Even Ye Fan, Pang Bo, Ye Yiyi and others aged because they did not take the elixir of immortality.

"The Sea of ​​Bitterness has been activated."

Ning Qingyi observed Ye Fan's sea of ​​suffering. He had taken a peek at it when he first saw it on Mount Tai. At that time, he felt that the sea of ​​suffering in the holy body was as hard as divine iron. Now, under the influence of the ancient forbidden land, it was as if it was heated and there was a possibility of melting.

As for appearance, he can just take the elixir of immortality later, and even restore his youth from aging. For Ye Fan, maybe he can understand something.

He took everyone away, turned into a divine rainbow and left. After traveling for a day and a night, he arrived at a small town in the State of Yan.

He changed his clothes, bought the courtyard, and released everyone. Soon everyone in the courtyard woke up.

They looked at each other, and even though they were prepared, they were still stunned when they saw each other's aging.

Zhou Yi stretched out a trembling hand, stroked his wrinkled skin, and plucked out a strand of withered white hair. He uttered an extremely old voice, in disbelief: "It's actually true!"

"what……"

Li Xiaoman, Lin Jia and Liu Yiyi screamed. Appearance is a woman's first life, especially beautiful women who care more about their appearance. When they find themselves becoming old, it is difficult to accept it even if they are mentally prepared.

Wang Ziwen, Zhang Ziling, and Pang Bo were also shivering constantly.

Ye Fan also stood there in a daze. Even though he had been prepared, he couldn't help but feel discouraged when he really felt the aging.

"Quiet!"

Ning Qing roared like a lion. If he hadn't used the secret of the word formation to lay out the formation pattern in advance, the entire town would have been half destroyed by his roar.

"It's just that your appearance has changed under the influence of the ancient forbidden land, but compared with countless mortals, you who have activated the Sea of ​​Bitterness have already embarked on the path to immortality that they have dreamed of all their lives. Why lament!" Everyone was yelled at and speechless. They felt a chaos in their heads, but they also felt that Ning Qingyi's words were so clear.

Ning Qingyi used his telepathy and spoke word by word, "With a firm heart and a single mind, one will face the future, and the great way will not let one down!"

Everyone came to their senses at this moment, and felt the sadness in their hearts gradually dissipate, and their mentality gradually returned to the thinking of young people. That's right, as long as they practiced Taoism, anything was possible.

Ye Fan's fighting spirit was even higher: "That's right, we not only want to return to our youth, but also return to Earth!"

"Correct!"

The nine old men and women in the courtyard roared angrily as if they were given a shot of chicken blood, which was laughable to think about.

"Well, this is too much for you. I've already bought a courtyard. You can rest first."

Ning Qingyi sent everyone back and at the same time he went to regulate his breathing.

When the moon was at its zenith, he quietly walked out of the bedroom, came to Ye Fan's room and carried him out.

"Qingyi, what are you doing in the middle of the night?" Ye Fan, who was woken up, shuddered. Now he was the body of an old man in his seventies or eighties and could not stand the cold.

Ning Qingyi said, "Don't you want the Immortality Elixir anymore? Or do you think I won't give it to you?"

Ye Fan was silent for a moment. He had indeed thought about this when he was resting just now: "You have cultivated his telepathy, so you naturally know what I am thinking."

"Since I've made a promise to you, I won't go back on my word." Ning Qingyi took the divine fruit out of the Luofu Cauldron. "There are nine kinds of fruit, each with a different quantity. Without you, I might not be able to pick all the fruit. So, you get one of the three complete sets of fruit, and I'll get two. For the remaining incomplete pieces, I'll get six and you four."

Ye Fan was greatly surprised: "You want to give me so much?"

Ning Qingyi asked back: "You don't want it?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Ye Fan smiled happily, his face full of wrinkles: "I said Qingyi is a good person, how could he be greedy for my immortality medicine!"

Ning Qingyi was too lazy to pay attention to him and said, "In that case, just eat the nine fruits here, and I will help you dissolve the sea of ​​suffering today!"

Ye Fan was shocked: "You mean I can practice now?"

Ning Qingyi explained, "The first stage of cultivation, the Wheel Sea, is equivalent to the foundation building in fairy tales. Without scriptures, as long as your spirit is complete and your energy is sufficient, the Sea of ​​Bitterness will naturally open up. And if you have taken nine holy fruits in a row and have experience in cultivation, it is not impossible for you to surpass me."

Ye Fan was overjoyed and said with his mouth wide open: "Come on!"

Ning Qing rolled his eyes. No wonder he was called Ye Hei in the future. He was indeed a thick-skinned and black-hearted person.

"Prepare the Bodhi seeds and keep your mind focused."

Ning Qingyi did not delay. After Ye Fan was ready, he directly put the nine fruits one by one into the place where Ye Fan's sea of ​​suffering was, and then practiced the Taoist scriptures.

Ye Fan only felt a loud bang in his body, and an indescribable feeling suddenly rushed out from three inches below his navel. It was the huge life essence washing over his solid wheel sea.

Almost instantly, the sea of ​​suffering was washed away.

The light around was bright and there were bursts of tsunami-like sounds. Endless divine light burst out from Ye Fan's sea of ​​suffering, golden and shining, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

"Hold your mind!" Ning Qing shouted, "Listen carefully, what I'm going to teach you next is the Dao Sutra: Wheel Sea Scroll!"

The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name.
The profound meaning of the scriptures flowed in Ye Fan's mind. He thought of what Ning Qingyi had said before, and his mind suddenly connected with the Bodhi seed.

Many wonderful appearances and endless methods are presented one after another, mysterious and profound, like the divine music of heaven, and like the rumbling hymn of the Tao.

Ye Fan listened with rapt attention, feeling as if many windows had suddenly opened. He tried to grasp something, but it was like grasping gravel, all flowing away. This wasn't cultivation. No one could grasp such profound truths in such a short time, let alone he didn't even understand what cultivation was.

However, Ning Qingyi, with the help of the Bodhi Divine Medicine, understood the true meaning of the Dao Sutra Wheel Sea, and naturally had the ability to leave behind what should be left behind. For example, what is cultivation, what should be practiced in this secret realm, and what realm should be achieved.

The four realms of suffering, the spring of life, the divine bridge and the other shore are perfectly explained in the Dao Sutra Wheel Sea Scroll.

Ning Qingyi recited scriptures for Ye Fan dozens of times, and finally completely dissipated the medicinal power of the Nine Wonderful Immortal Medicine. Most of it was absorbed by his precious body, of course, some of the medicinal power was wasted.

Ye Fan opened his eyes, a divine light flashed in his eyes, and he let out a long roar, alarming the beasts in the mountains.

"Qingyi, I've done it!" Ye Fan waved his hands excitedly, but suddenly found that his hands became younger. Just as he was about to say something, he found a mirror appeared in front of him, and a young man in his thirties appeared.

He was stunned, his expression a mixture of sadness and joy. From old age to middle age, he thought of a lot in this moment.

Ning Qingyi used his telepathy again and sighed, "Beauty and bones are all illusions, and the lush yellow flowers are nothing but Prajna."

Ye Fan seemed to be touched by something, and the Taoist scriptures in his mind started to work again. With a bang, he actually stepped into the realm of Life Spring!
Ning Qing was stunned.

I already knew that Emperor Ye Tian had extraordinary comprehension, but this time he suddenly realized the true meaning of the Taoist scriptures. Even though he was holding a Bodhi seed, it was too amazing.

This made him a little frustrated, but he quickly cheered up.

Be determined and face the future with determination, and the great way will not let you down!

This was said to Ye Fan and the others, as well as to himself. Besides, his own opportunities were also quite good, so it was worth a look at the road to becoming an emperor!
It was not until dawn in the east that Ye Fan woke up from his cultivation. He felt that everything was floating in the air. After only one night, he could become a Life Spring cultivator and cross the void.

"Holding the Bodhi seed, building the foundation of the Nine Wonderful Immortal Fruit, practicing the Emperor Scripture." Ning Qingyi counted them one by one: "Ye Fan, on Mars I once said that practicing the Holy Body is difficult, but now I have given you everything I should give you. If you want to achieve something, it depends on whether you have great perseverance, great luck, and great wisdom."

Ye Fan shuddered. After being taught the Dharma by Ning Qingyi overnight, he was no longer a novice in cultivation and knew how terrifying his adventure was.

Ye Fan said solemnly: "Qingyi, no, thank you Master Ning for teaching me the Dharma!"

Ning Qingyi shook his head and said, "You and I just complement each other. Without you, I might not be able to obtain the Nine Wonders Immortal Elixir. I also have these for you."

Ning Qingyi delivered the remaining promised Nine Wonderful Immortal Holy Fruits, some divine spring water and hundreds of kilograms of source, and also passed on a basic scripture to him.

"The complete Dao Sutra Wheel Sea Scroll is a method that can shake the entire cultivation world. You must remember not to reveal it, so this scripture will be used to cover it up a little."

Ye Fan took it, was silent for a moment and said, "Are you leaving?"

Ning Qing nodded slightly: "I came here across the starry sky just to practice better. I can't spare the energy to take care of you and them. Fortunately, you are also a young cultivator, so you can take care of them."

"But I have to say one more thing. The basic method can be passed on, and the source can be given, but the Nine Wonderful Immortal Sacred Fruit and the Dao Sutra Wheel Sea Scroll must never be shown to others lightly."

"Beidou has been a paradise for cultivation since ancient times. They activated the Sea of ​​Bitterness. If you send them to a sect here, it would be a good place too."

Ning Qingyi stopped talking.

Ye Fan was silent. To be honest, his friendship with Ning Qingyi was not deep in college, and it was even more distant when they met again three years after graduation. But judging from the fact that he always kept his word and kept his promises, he was already a very upright person.

"I see."

"That's good. I won't be going back to the town. Let's say goodbye."

Ye Fan couldn't help but ask: "Is there a chance to see you again?"

"As long as you keep practicing, you will definitely get it!"

Ye Fan shouted loudly "Take care!"

Ning Qingyi stepped into the endless mountains, waved his hand without looking back, and left freely.

Beidou, here I come!
