Cold sweat broke out on Shi Xuan's forehead. Ever since he started learning Dao, he had been hiding a deep sense of pride in the depths of his heart. If he had stayed in the Central Plains, he could have continued this pride. However, now that he was in the cultivation world, he would probably feel inferior, fear, despair, and all sorts of other emotions. Could he overcome these emotions? He could enjoy a hundred years of peace in the Central Plains, but he might die halfway in the cultivation world. Would he dare to face this possibility?
He thought about the unreconciled ghosts he had seen, and the future where they would turn into bones in the tombs and eventually disappear from the world. His thoughts gradually calmed down. Finally, he said in a calm and determined voice, "I am willing to go to the cultivation world."
Daoquan Zi looked deeply at Shi Xuan and curled his lips. "How boring. Then wait outside the Swallow Forest in the west of the city. I will bring you to the cultivation world."
Shi Xuan was still immersed in his emotions. He replied gratefully but calmly, "Thank you, senior."
The next morning, Shi Xuan arrived at the Swallow Forest early and waited. It was not until the early hours of the morning that he saw a black shadow coming from afar. When he got closer, he realized that it was a big black bear. It was actually swaggering in the forest outside of Luojing City, as if it was taking a leisurely stroll.
"You bastard, I told you to walk slower." Daoquan Zi's angry voice came from behind the bear.
When he reached Shi Xuan, Daoquan Zi walked past the bear and looked at Shi Xuan in annoyance. "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen me oversleep? Follow me." He then flipped onto the bear's back and sat firmly on it. He then drove the bear deeper into the forest.
Shi Xuan's steps were light as he walked beside the black bear. He took the opportunity to ask Daoquan Zi, the senior master, for advice on the problems he had encountered in his cultivation.
Although Daoquan Zi was cold and had a bad attitude, he still explained to Shi Xuan seriously after listening to his questions.
The benefits he gained from this consultation far exceeded Shi Xuan's expectations. Especially when it came to a specific problem, Daoquan Zi's explanation was very different from Lao Dao's. Connecting the dots, he could see that Daoquan Zi's explanation was completely correct.
While the effects of this explanation weren't significant in the first few realms, it would be severe once one reached the Leaving Aperture realm. While Shi Xuan was traveling, he could already feel the bottleneck in his cultivation quivering. Just by following Daoquan Zi's explanation, Shi Xuan could already feel the bottleneck in his cultivation quivering.
Shi Shuan could not help but sigh. Despite Old Taoist Xu's talent, he was able to break through to the Leaving Aperture Stage at such a young age with just a scroll of Taoist magic arts and no guidance from anyone. However, he was also at a disadvantage because he had no guidance. An inconspicuous mistake in understanding caused him to waste his entire life in the Leaving Aperture Stage. Because of this, Shi Shuan was determined to go to the world of cultivation.
As Shi Xuan concentrated on asking questions, the two of them went further and further away. Finally, they stopped in front of a cliff in a deserted valley. Daoquan Zi jumped off the bear and said to Shi Xuan, "Okay, I have used up my kindness today. Don't ask any more questions. Let's go in." After saying that, he waved his sleeve and a big cave appeared on the cliff. He then led the bear into it.
The entrance of the cave was very big, but it was not spacious inside. There was only a mysterious formation on the ground, occupying two-thirds of the space in the cave.
"Little Shi, just stand in the circle in the middle of the formation." Daoquan Zi pointed at the formation.
Shi Xuan immediately walked into the circle and looked at the array formation. It was complex and mysterious. Even with Shi Xuan's cultivation, he still felt a bit dizzy. Daoquan Zi's mocking laughter echoed in his ears, "Brat Shi, you dare to look at a transmission array formation with your measly cultivation? Wait until you break through to the Divine Soul realm.
Just as he finished speaking, Daoquan Zi somehow managed to light up the lines of the formation in a sequence that Shi Xuan could not understand. Shi Xuan collected his thoughts and asked the question he wanted to ask yesterday, "Taoist, Senior, which worlds are those 27 especially bright worlds in the starry sky? Why are they so bright?"
"Hehe, didn't I say yesterday that there are billions of worlds with cultivators? But there are only 27 worlds with Jinxian Daoist at the Integration Stage. Hahaha. "Daoquan Zi laughed and shook his head. Then, he turned around and got on the back of the bear.
The formation was completely lit up and was gathering power. Shi Xuan then remembered that he did not ask where the other side of the formation was. He quickly shouted, "Senior! What is the other side of the formation? "
Daoquan Zi sat on the back of the bear and held the willow branch in his hand. He waved it and did not answer Shi Xuan's question. He shook his head and sang,
"Taoist,
Don't ever plant peach blossoms in front of Xuandu Temple,
Don't ever exchange the jade seal for wine,
Don't ever compete with Handan's shop for late work,
Don't ever envy the Purple Pavilion Painting Hall. "
His figure gradually disappeared at the entrance of the cave. The last few sentences came from afar.
"There's a cold spring that boils stones in the wild.
I hear the flowers in White Jade Capital bloom,
Then I climb the clouds on the back of a crane! "
A dazzling light burst out from the formation and disappeared in a flash. When everything calmed down, Shi Xuan, who was in the formation, had disappeared without a trace.
