According to the jade scroll, the Kunlun secret realm had indeed been closed.
As for the reason for its closure, Xu Shenxing had actually learned about it before.
In the Desolate Era, the Heavenly Realm and the Human Realm were actually connected through Mount Buzhou.
At that time, Kunlun was just a towering mountain.
As the saying goes, a mountain is not high because of the presence of an immortal. In the Desolate Era, Kunlun was actually where the West Queen Mother's palace was located.
However, unlike the other mythical figures who liked to stir up trouble at that time, the West Queen Mother was more of a homebody type.
In order to save the Human Realm, when Hou Yi shot down the Nine Suns, she was afraid that he would be killed by the angry East Emperor, so she specially ordered the Sanqing Bird to pass down a decree for Hou Yi to come to Kunlun and give him the immortal elixir. Other than that, the West Queen Mother almost did not participate in any major mythical events.
It was not until Mount Buzhou collapsed and heaven and earth separated that she escaped to the Heavenly Realm with the Sanqing Bird.
At that time, the Heavenly Emperor requisitioned Mount Kunlun and made it the last gateway to the Heavenly Realm.
However, seven hundred years ago, the Tongtian River that was connected to Kunlun was cut off. It was almost impossible for the Human Realm to go to Kunlun. About three hundred years ago, Kunlun officially announced its closure. Since then, there had been no news of Kunlun in the Human Realm.
"…"
In Xu Shenxing's opinion, the Kunlun secret realm did not really close in the sense that he had been to Kunlun several times. During those trips, he had seen many things that obviously did not exist three hundred years ago. For example, tablets and the like.
However, now was not the time to argue about this point.
Qin Xingyan's condition was very bad. The girl who was already on the verge of death was now losing her body temperature.
Xu Shenxing carried her in his arms and strode out of the Bailu Temple. Seeing that the master of the Virtuous Temple did not dare to stop him, the disciples naturally did not have the courage to provoke the ferocious Old Xu.
Not long after, Xu Shenxing found Brother Dragon in the Earth Temple, who was discussing something with the Earth Loli.
"Although I don't expect you to be polite, as Jiang Jin's guardian, can't you knock on the door before coming in?"
Because she had a close personal relationship with Mo Li, as one of the few supernatural creatures who was not particularly afraid of Xu Shenxing, the loli looked at Xu Shenxing and said helplessly.
"The door fell down when I knocked."
"Can you be any more fake?!"
Ignoring the loli, Xu Shenxing looked at Ao Li and asked straightforwardly.
"Where are the ruins of the Heavenspan River?"
"What … brother, why are you looking for that?"
Brother Dragon, who hadn't come back to his senses, asked in a daze.
Then he noticed the girl in Xu Shenxing's arms.
After a while, Ao Li tried to persuade him with kind words, "Brother, although you have outstanding talent and strength, it's better not to abandon you … Where's the little girl who was always by your side?"
Xu Shenxing almost kicked this tasteless dragon out of the solar system.
He patiently explained the cause and effect of the incident to the two of them in a very short and concise manner.
Then the two people (or two gods) understood the seriousness of the matter.
"If it's convenient, can I take a look?"
The loli asked Xu Shenxing.
Xu Shenxing hesitated for a moment, then carefully put the girl in his arms on the loli's rattan chair.
At this time, Qin Xingyan was almost no different from a dead person. Her face was pale, her hands and feet were cold, her breathing was so weak that it was almost impossible to feel, and her pulse was almost non-existent.
The loli's little hand emitted a warm white light and brushed Qin Xingyan's body.
At this moment, the loli's body emitted a kind and holy glow like the mother of all things. It was only at this time that Xu Shenxing had the feeling of "So this guy is really a god".
Specks of light separated from the loli's palm and slowly merged into the girl's body.
However, this did not have any effect. Qin Xingyan's condition did not show any signs of improvement.
After a short while, the loli finally stopped and shook her head.
"No, she can't even absorb the spiritual power directly extracted from the veins of the earth. This is one of the most gentle spiritual powers in the world. It can't even nourish her meridians …" Then she raised her head and looked at Xu Shenxing. "You'd better be mentally prepared."
Looks like I really have to make some preparations. I'll have to break into the Underworld later … Xu Shenxing muttered in his heart.
"Also, I don't know if it's because they made a mistake," the loli hesitated when she said this, as if she did not know whether to say it or not, but in the end, she sighed and continued, "Although this girl's cultivation is indeed not bad, she seems to be the only one in this generation who can touch the edge of the Jindan Stage at such a young age. But the problem is that there seems to be something wrong with her soul. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be able to live past the age of twelve … "
"…"
That's right, Qin Xingyan's soul was indeed incomplete. In the past, she was still a weak and sickly child. Later, after receiving the gift of the green bird, she became healthy and her path of cultivation was much smoother than others.
"This is the first time I've seen such a special situation … To be honest, after her death, I'm not even sure if her soul will go to the Underworld. No, I should say that I'm not even sure if her soul is a real one … "
The loli's words stunned Xu Shenxing.
Then, he thought of a problem that he had not thought about until now.
If Qin Xingyan's soul really only went to the Underworld after her death, then why didn't the other him who sent Apricot Blossom directly go to the Underworld after Qin Xingyan's death and barge into the Underworld to ask for her? Why did he spend ten years painstakingly cutting off the timeline?
… If Qin Xingyan's soul would directly dissipate after her death because of the uniqueness of her soul, then what should he do?
Should he practice cutting off the timeline like the other him who blamed himself for ten years?
"I don't mean to look down on you, but as the Earth God of Jiang Jin, I've seen and experienced many of my friends pass away … No matter how reluctant I am, this is the law of nature. When it's time to let go, let go. After you've experienced it many times, you'll naturally become numb."
Seeing Xu Shenxing's appearance, the loli sighed and persuaded, "This is the sorrow of immortals …"
"…"
In the past, when he was far from being as strong as he was now, Xu Shenxing had also sent away many of his comrades and friends.
But no matter how many times he got used to it, he could not get used to it.
It was probably because of the stimulation of that time that when Xu Shenxing obtained power, he subconsciously wanted to protect the people around him — because he no longer wanted to experience the regret of being separated by life and death.
"If I'm not mistaken, brother, you're looking for the ruins of the Heavenly River to find a way to go to the Kunlun secret realm through the ruins, right?"
At this time, Ao Li, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.
"Yes, that's right."
Hearing this, Xu Shenxing nodded vigorously.
"But to be honest, even if I take you to find the ruins of the Heavenly River, you can't enter Kunlun with that … The Heavenly River was not a secret place in the Remote Antiquity Age. After the Heavenly River was cut off, there would definitely be many demons, ghosts, and even human cultivators looking for the lost treasures inside, as well as the way to Kunlun." Ao Li explained to Xu Shenxing, "Unfortunately, although some people occasionally found some lost treasures in the ruins, no one has ever found a way to go to the Kunlun secret realm … After all, 700 years have passed, and what should be discovered has long been excavated."
"…"
Xu Shenxing fell silent again.
His intuition told him that Ao Li was not lying.
If the ruins of the Heavenly River were really useful, then why was there no record of anyone successfully entering Kunlun since 700 years ago?
"But even so, if you want to go to Kunlun, it's not impossible!"
Just when Xu Shenxing felt a burst of bitterness in his heart and wanted to use the last method to try his luck and find Kunlun by blindly chopping a few times, Ao Li suddenly said.
"Actually, that method isn't that difficult … You should have had similar experiences in the past."
Ao Li said, then stretched out his finger and wrote two words out of thin air.
