"Is it that important?"
"I'm just curious."
"Looks like you can't forget about the Evil Dao," Dan Chenzi exclaimed.
He could understand Li Xianyu's mentality. He was a die-hard fan who wanted to know more about his idol. Today, Li Xianyu and the Evil Dao had an ill-fated relationship … Pfft. Everyone knew about the relationship.
He once entered the Evil Dao's memories and obtained the Ancient Demon's Remains. Later on, the Evil Dao gave him the Qi Sword Embryo during the Dao Discussion Conference. He nurtured it in his body and learned another ultimate technique. It could be said that Li Xianyu's rapid rise was mostly due to the Evil Dao's favor.
Li Peiyun was known as the Evil Dao's successor. In fact, Li Xianyu was more deserving of the title.
"No, I can't forget about Senior Sister Tai Su," Li Xianyu said honestly.
"She really is a pure, elegant, and refined woman." Dan Chenzi nodded. "At least, your description of her is very good."
"Of course. She's definitely one of the top three beauties I've ever seen. Unfortunately, a beautiful woman has a short life. Talking about her makes me want to cry." Li Xianyu stopped him. "That's not the point. Who did you learn the Sword of Will from?"
Senior Sister Tai Su, be it her temperament or appearance, was definitely the best. She was the kind of fairy-like person that one would never forget. Li Xianyu had only met Ice Shards and his great-grandmother before. Other women, such as the Three Nothingness Thunder Warmistress, Kuri Aoki, and so on, were all inferior.
Perhaps, only Li Qianyu, the number one in China for 5,000 years, could surpass the three of them.
I look great in women's clothing!
"You're so far away, yet so close." Dan Chenzi fixed his gaze on the old Daoist.
Li Xianyu looked over and retracted his gaze. He said unhappily, "Don't say it if you don't want to. You don't have to brush me off."
Dan Chenzi shrugged. "If I don't want to say it, I'll just refuse to answer. Since I said it, it's the truth. I'm sure Senior doesn't mind. "
Li Xianyu couldn't help lowering his voice, "What's the background of the old immortal?"
Dan Chenzi also said in a low voice, "I'm not sure. He's an old man who is especially good at living. When my master's master's master's master first entered the sect, he was already sweeping the floor here."
No matter what, it had to be more than seventy years old. The old man's age was estimated to be around a century.
After experiencing the Pope's rebellion, Li Xianyu was very sensitive to this kind of old tortoise who was especially resilient.
"Senior, this is Li Xianyu, whom I've told you about before. He can be considered as half of Taoist Wang Chen's successor. Like me, he also knows half of the Three Talents Sword Art. However, my Sword of Will is taught by you, while his Sword of Qi is taught by Taoist Wang Chen." Dan Chenzi stood up and bowed. He introduced Li Xianyu to the old Taoist, "When I told you about him, he had died in the Pantheon Palace. Who would have thought that he would come back to life?"
"He's always like this. I remember he died once."
As the old Taoist listened to his introduction, he sized up Li Xianyu. His eyes were cloudy but very calm.
Li Xianyu was also observing him. After seeing his eyes, he knew that he couldn't see anything from this old man's expression.
"Senior!" Li Xianyu bowed. "How did you learn the Sword of Delight?"
"From Wang Chen Sect," the old Taoist said lightly.
"Are you old friends with him?" Li Xianyu looked at the old Taoist carefully. He didn't remember seeing this person in the demon path's memory.
"When I became famous in my youth, he was still a child. I taught him a few Dao spells during the Dao Discussion Conference, which could be considered as forming a good relationship. Later on, something went wrong in his practice. Not only did he find it hard to improve his cultivation, but his primordial spirit was damaged and he would go crazy from time to time. Sometimes, he would even hurt his fellow disciples. My master couldn't stand the harassment, so he ordered me to move out of the Shang Qing Sect and live on the mountainside. I was responsible for cleaning the steps. "
"Many years later, Wang Chen came to the Shang Qing Sect to look for me. At that time, he had just entered the Extreme Dao and was also a traitor with a lot of crimes. He taught me the Sword of Will, so I was able to heal the damage to my primordial spirit. This sweep lasted for ninety years. "
Li Xianyu thought carefully. The demon path's life was very short. What he saw in his memory was the most unforgettable time in the short life of the peak of the Extreme Dao. This old Taoist sweeping the floor of the Shang Qing Sect was obviously not in his memory.
In order to help a "senior brother" recover from his injuries when he was young, he taught the Sword of Will of the peak of the Extreme Dao. This was indeed something that Wang Chen would do.
He was such a person. To put it nicely, he was carefree and cheerful. To put it bluntly, he was heartless and sloppy.
"He was already in the Extreme Dao at that time …" Li Xianyu sighed. "I have seen part of Daoist Wang Chen's memory, but it was always broken … There was also a huge gap between them. If I remember correctly, when the Imperial Army surrendered, he was still not in the Extreme Dao, right? "
"He stepped into the Extreme Dao after destroying the Cao Family. I was on the mountain at that time and heard the news from the foot of the mountain. It was said that Wang Chen led a Japanese army to destroy the Cao Family. The Cao Family and the Japanese army perished together, and Wang Chen became the biggest beneficiary of this battle. His cultivation reached the Extreme Dao. But I heard that the Cao Family and the Japanese army died in the same way, like rotten wood. "
"They were all killed by him!" Li Xianyu's heart skipped a beat. The withered corpse was a unique characteristic of dying under the gluttony of Slime. "So, not only did he use the Japanese army to destroy the Cao Family, but he also tricked the Japanese army at the same time?"
"It was also from then on that Wang Chen had the infamy of being a demon path. Before that, he was a traitor. It was said that a young man from the Cao Family escaped from the Japanese army with great difficulty and brought back the news that Wang Chen had defected to the Japanese army. Not only did he defected to the Japanese army, but he also caused the death of his fellow disciples and many people who fought against the Japanese, "said the old Taoist.
Li Xianyu nodded. He knew all this. After Cao Jun returned to the family, he was the first to complain and pushed all the blame to Wang Chen, leaving him with no way to defend himself. Wang Chen was despised and spurned by the people of the Righteous Dao. At that time, he had just obtained the Slime and his cultivation had not reached a high level yet. At the same time, he was influenced by the Slime and his personality changed greatly. He used the Japanese army to destroy the Cao Family to avenge Senior Sister Taisu.
Later on, he killed the elites of the Aoki Family. In order to take revenge, the Japanese army spread the news that he had entered the Pantheon Palace. At this point, it was no longer important whether he had defected to the enemy or not. Even if he was a loyal national hero, no one was willing to believe him.
During this period, he hid from place to place for a few years. With Wang Chen's strength, he should not be afraid of the righteous people after the victory of the Japanese war. However, he did not want to be enemies with Taoism and Buddhism.
In the end, the leader of the Quanzhen Sect of that generation wrote a letter to trick him back to the sect. Then, he used despicable means to trap him and imprison him in the underground palace.
What happened after that was the last scene that Li Xianyu saw in his memory. The little junior sister that the demon path tried to save was killed by the leader after she returned to the mountain. Wang Chen's tragic life completely fell into the abyss of despair. Only then did Taoism and Buddhism record the "Quanzhen Chaos" in the history books.
Li Xianyu could roughly guess and imagine the life of the demon path after that.
"I am indebted to Taoist Wang Chen. However, the heavens are jealous of the talented. That day at the Dao Discussion Conference, his soul had already returned to heaven and earth. He has no regrets." Li Xianyu bowed to the old Taoist. "Before his remnant soul dissipated, he split the Sword of Qi into three and gave me a sword embryo. Are you interested in seeing it?"
Li Xianyu was mischievous. Without waiting for the old Taoist to say anything, he directly activated the Sword of Qi. White light surged and broke out from his arm. The Sword of Qi did not have a sword hilt. It was just a three-foot sword blade formed by the condensation of white Qi. It extended from the palm of the user and looked very cool.
Dan Chenzi squinted his eyes. The sword light pierced his eyes and he was very surprised. Only two months had passed since the end of the Dao Discussion Conference. Li Xianyu's Sword of Qi was many times stronger than when he first obtained the sword embryo.
He was indeed a man with cheats. This speed of advancement was really frightening.
"Have you found the threshold of the half-step Extreme Dao recently?" Dan Chenzi asked.
Li Xianyu raised the Sword of Qi high and turned to look at him. He replied, "No."
Dan Chenzi was instantly relieved. "That's right. Your advancement speed is too fast. The higher you go, the easier it is for you to hit a bottleneck. Since ancient times, many talented youths became famous but were stuck in a realm for life. Look, you were already a top-notch Rank S a long time ago. Now you are stuck in the half-step Extreme Dao, right? "
With this thought, Dan Chenzi felt much better. He had already given an evaluation that Li Xianyu would be stuck in a certain realm because of his fast advancement speed and unstable foundation.
Li Xianyu looked at him strangely. "What nonsense are you talking about? I just entered Rank S three months ago. I will be a top-notch Rank S by the end of the month. I was in AFK for two months and just revived not long ago. "
That's right. F * ck, that's right …
During the Dao Discussion Conference, he was still a Rank S expert. There was still a gap between him and Jiese. At the end of the month, after a trip to the Pantheon Palace, he was already a top-notch Rank S.
What kind of bottleneck was this? He was a gangster.
Dan Chenzi's good mood disappeared without a trace.
"That's right. When we were fighting at the Vatican's headquarters, Li Peiyun seemed to have reached the threshold of half-step Extreme Dao. I saw him unleash an attack of that level," Li Xianyu added in a calm tone.
"…" Dan Chenzi waved his hand tiredly. As a monk, there was no point in comparing himself to a bunch of ordinary people.
As long as I don't lose to Jiese, it's fine. Li Xianyu and Li Peiyun are people of the secular world. Jiese and I are from the Buddhist Taoist Association.
After chatting, he sheathed his sword. Li Xianyu's smile was filled with sincerity. He had confirmed with his eyes that he was not an Ancient Demon Corpse.
If one were to be stimulated by the sharpness of the Sword of Qi at close range, no matter how well one hid, one would still be exposed. The Sword of Qi was the nemesis of the Ancient Demon Corpse. It was like salt to a slug.
Since the old Taoist was not an Ancient Demon Corpse, there was no problem with his identity. What he said just now was also true.
"Your temperament is somewhat similar to Wang Chen's when he was young." It was unknown if the old Taoist was completely aware of Li Xianyu's probing or if he did not care. His expression and gaze did not change.
Is Wang Chen as coquettish as me?
Am I as carefree and sloppy as him?
"Daoist Wang Chen is a gentle and kind person. I'm not." Li Xianyu shook his head. "If he was a little more ruthless, he wouldn't have ended up like this."
"Wang Chen's ending … is very tragic?"
"The most tragic I've ever seen."
The old Taoist looked at Li Xianyu meaningfully. For a moment, Li Xianyu's scalp went numb. At this moment, the old Taoist retracted his gaze. He lowered his head and continued sweeping the floor. He said softly, "This is our first meeting. Since you gave me the sword, I'll give you a word."
"Senior, please speak."
"In this world, fate cannot be changed."
Li Xianyu waited for a moment. When the old Taoist did not continue speaking, he knew that the old habit of the monks was acting up again. They did not speak human language.
The younger brother of the Buddha head was also like this. He would either speak with hidden meaning or only half a sentence. It was especially annoying.
"Why did he say this to me? Is it just a casual remark? Is he pretending to be mysterious? Or does he have a deeper meaning? Of course, I know that fate cannot be changed. Why is he saying this to me? "He thought to himself. He looked at Dan Chenzi. The latter shrugged.
At this moment, the sound of a bell came from the top of the mountain. It was clear and melodious.
Dan Chenzi listened carefully for a while. His expression became strange. "This is the bell that seals the Shangqing Sect."
"Seals the sect?"
"The disciples who hear the bell must return to the sect within the time it takes for a joss stick to burn. If the bell doesn't ring to lift the seal, they are not allowed to leave the sect. At the same time, this also means that the Shang Qing Sect will not allow visitors. No outsiders are allowed to enter, "Dan Chenzi said.
