Dragon Tiger Mountain was rumored to be the ancestral court of Taoism. It had been known as the Capital of Taoism since ancient times.
At the peak of Taoism, there were ten Taoist palaces, eighty-one Taoist temples, fifty Taoist schools, and ten Taoist nunneries. The place was filled with incense, and there was an endless stream of people seeking Taoism.
However, with the end of the world, countless legacies were lost. Most of the temples on Dragon Tiger Mountain had been abandoned, and only a few remained.
"Hmm?"
As soon as he entered the range of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Chen Xiao frowned, and a strange expression appeared on his face. "The terrain of this area..."
Although his Divine Telekinesis could only cover a few hundred feet, Chen Xiao could still sense it clearly.
The entire Dragon Tiger Mountain range was covered by a mysterious array. The direction of the mountains, the growth of the vegetation, and the flow of the veins were all in accordance with the heavens.
There was a Daoist Rhyme being emitted from underground, and if it were to explode one day, it would be able to unleash a terrifying aura and suppress all enemies.
"This array is quite interesting. It has a strong suppression effect on non-human races."
Thinking back to the ancient times when the Demon Race's vanguard arrived on Earth, Chen Xiao rubbed his chin, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
At this moment, Yan Jianan, who was moving underground, suddenly had a new change.
The effect of the three talismans seemed to be reaching its limit. The light on his body was weakening, and even his speed was decreasing rapidly.
"Not good, I'm at my limit. I have to get out of here as soon as possible!"
Yan Jianan's expression changed, and he quickly floated up. The moment he left the ground, the energy of the three talismans was depleted, and he lost his balance. He rolled for more than ten meters before he finally stabilized himself.
"I've finally reached Dragon Tiger Mountain!"
Bathing in the wind of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Yan Jianan's face was as pale as a sheet, and he had the urge to cry.
Even so, he did not dare to stay any longer.
Raising his hand to activate the last talisman, Yan Jianan's aura was like that of a thousand-year-old tortoise, and it quickly faded away. If one could not see him with their own eyes, even a Grandmaster's Divine Instinct would not be able to detect his presence.
After doing all this, he used his mental energy to squeeze out all the potential in his body, and his body moved like lightning as he dove deep into the forest.
Yan Jianan was confident that once he entered the Dragon Tiger Mountain area, even the Demon King Chen would not be able to find him in the dense forest.
"There's even an Aura-Concealing Talisman?"
Sensing Yan Jianan's aura becoming fainter and fainter, Chen Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. "Now I'm even more curious about what we can discover on Mount Longhu."
Not long after, Yan Jianan's aura had almost completely dissipated. A dilapidated Taoist temple suddenly appeared at the end of his vision.
As the ancestral court of Taoism, Mount Longhu had many Taoist temples in its heyday. It was not surprising to find an abandoned Taoist temple on the mountain.
The only thing that surprised Chen Xiao was that there were actually very few signs of human habitation in this incomparably remote Taoist temple!
"Why would the deacon of the Primal Origin Sect come to such a small temple?" Chen Xiao frowned.
He landed on the ground and restrained his aura. He was like a piece of dead wood. Even if someone was standing next to him, they would not be able to detect his presence.
Such a method was far superior to Yan Jianan's Aura-Concealing Talisman.
A broken stone staircase led to the entrance of the Taoist temple. The board at the entrance was slanted and one could vaguely make out the words' Egret '. It had been baptized by the vicissitudes of time and contained an immortal aura.
Chen Xiao walked up the stairs and strolled into the Taoist temple. An old man in plain clothes was hunched over, sweeping the dust on the ground with a bald broom.
Beside the old man was a little girl around the age of fourteen or fifteen. She had a delicate face and did not have any makeup on. She was hugging her knees and her legs would shake from time to time.
The moment Chen Xiao saw the old man, he revealed a shocked expression for the first time.
"Benefactor, this monastery has long since stopped accepting guests. Please return."
At this moment, the old man suddenly spoke, which startled the little girl. She looked around in confusion and asked, "Grandpa, where did the guest come from?"
"Xiao Ke, go into the inner hall first. Let grandpa talk to the guest," said the old man.
Although she was still confused, the little girl named Xiao Ke nodded obediently and walked into the inner hall.
Chen Xiao walked out of the void and his figure appeared. His face had regained its calmness. He smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect that I would be able to see a Five-star Great Grandmaster on Earth."
The old man in front of him looked weak and his aura was not obvious. It was as if a gust of wind could blow him to the ground.
However, Chen Xiao's Divine Telekinesis could clearly capture the terrifying surging energy hidden under the old man's old appearance!
The old man's True Qi was extremely pure. Once it exploded, it could easily suppress a grandmaster and defeat thousands of enemies. It was a terrifying power!
If the old man was determined to protect Yan Jianan, even Chen Xiao would not be able to do anything for a while.
"You can actually see through me …"
This time, it was the old man's turn to be shocked.
He had lived in seclusion here for many years, and there had been outsiders here. However, it was the first time someone like Chen Xiao was able to see through his true cultivation with a single glance!
The old man's expression changed slightly. However, he quickly recovered his trembling posture and smiled bitterly, "Mister, I really don't know what you're talking about. This temple has stopped accepting guests for a long time. Please return."
"Someone hid in your temple earlier. Why didn't you stop him?"
Chen Xiao smiled meaningfully and continued, "Not to mention that not only can I see through your cultivation, I can also see that you're sick!"
The old man's body shook.
As soon as he saw the old man's reaction, Chen Xiao knew that he had walked in the right direction, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile as he continued, "Moreover, you've been poisoned, and you've been tortured by the poison for many years without being able to get rid of it!"
Finally, the old man's expression changed violently. A terrifying aura leaked out from his body, and it caused a violent wind to blow in the temple. It was an extremely shocking scene.
"Kid, who exactly sent you here?"
The mysterious young man before him hadn't just seen through his cultivation with a single glance, he'd even found out about his situation clearly. So, he couldn't help but be horrified by this.
He'd lived in seclusion here for many years. Firstly, it was for the sake of recuperating, and secondly, it was for the sake of avoiding his enemies.
"If you don't tell me why, then stay in this temple today and don't think of going anywhere!"
"Oh? Even though your cultivation is higher than mine, it's still very easy for me to leave if I want to. "
Chen Xiao placed his hands behind his back and shook his head with a calm expression. He said indifferently, "You can't stop me at all if I want to leave."
"How laughable!" The old man's imposing aura rose slightly, and it was practically on the verge of collapsing the ground.
"Moreover, I know that if I leave, then no one in this world will be able to cure you!" Chen Xiao continued.
The old man's breathing suddenly stopped.
