I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 84 The soul lamp goes out
To the north of Daqian, three hundred miles offshore, there is an island with a radius of nearly a thousand miles, called Guixu Island.

This place is the headquarters of Lingxu Gate.

There are tens of thousands of people on the island, all of whom have close ties with Lingxu Sect.

Although Daqian has a resident government office, it appears to belong to Daqian, but is actually independent of it.

Lingxiao Mountain is a thousand feet high and reaches into the sky.

The headquarters of the first sect of Daqian known to the outside world is located halfway up the mountain, and the top of the mountain is where the elders and sect leaders of Lingxu Sect of all generations spend their remaining years in retirement, and ordinary people are not allowed to go up the mountain.

At the top of the mountain, an old voice suddenly came from inside a solemn and ancient majestic palace.

"Yue Hong's soul lamp has gone out. Tongyi, go out of the mountain and take a look."

A middle-aged Taoist who was sitting cross-legged on a cliff and meditating on the truth stood up and bowed from a distance in the direction of the main hall: "As you command!"

Afterwards, he floated down the mountain without taking a boat, and walked on the waves over the three hundred miles of sea.

……

Li Miaoxuan took a reluctant look at the sleeping child, knelt down and kowtowed to Li Haotian, then walked out of the palace.

Looking back, I saw Li Shian standing on the roof and looking at me from afar.

Li Miaoxuan bowed again from a distance before using her skills to move towards the Lingxu Gate.

For a Daohuo Realm expert, traveling thousands of miles a day is just a common thing. He can absorb the vital energy of heaven and earth to nourish his body, and can go without food for ten days without any hindrance.

While walking on Longbei Road, he suddenly sensed the energy from afar and stopped.

A moment later, a Taoist in green clothes landed about ten feet away.

"Fellow Daoist Miao Xuan."

"Senior Kuang, why did you come down the mountain?"

"Yue Hong died, and the ancestor asked me to go down the mountain to see what happened. Has Daoist Miao Xuan heard of this?"

"No. However, Senior Yue has been in the Dao Fire Realm for a long time, and has also learned the secret techniques of my Lingxu Sect. Few people in this world can be his rivals. Could it be that he died at the hands of someone who took the trial?"

The Taoist in green sighed, "Perhaps. If so, it would be such a pity. Are you planning to return to the mountain, Fellow Daoist Miaoxuan?"

"The worldly affairs are over, and I am ready to return to the mountain and enter the secret realm to prepare for the journey to heaven."

The Taoist in green clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Then I wish you a prosperous journey to immortality."

Li Miaoxuan returned the gift gracefully and floated away.

They crossed mountains and rivers, rode the waves and returned to Guixu Island and climbed Lingxiao Mountain.

As she entered the mountain gate, she slowed down her pace, preparing to take another look at the mountain where she had stayed for more than ten years, and to go back to her yard to get some things.

On the way, I saw a one-armed young man sitting in a pavilion.

When the young man saw Li Miaoxuan, his eyes lit up, and then his expression became complicated, with surprise mixed with a little resentment.

Li Miaoxuan looked at his broken arm, sighed inwardly, and saluted gracefully: "Miaoxuan greets Senior Brother Qin."

Qin Baijun forced a smile: "Junior Sister Miaoxuan is still as charming as ever, but I am a useless person now."

An old man with white hair and beard came over. He looked gloomy and frowned as he looked at Li Miaoxuan and said, "Li Miaoxuan, are you back from outside?"

Li Miaoxuan knew that Elder Qin also held the grudge of Qin Baijun's broken arm against herself, so she said softly, "Replying to Elder Qin, I have gone down the mountain to deal with some mundane matters."

Elder Qin said coldly, "When did you leave the mountain? The sect issued an order to close the mountain three months ago. Disciples are not allowed to leave the mountain without permission. As an elder of the Discipline Hall, how come I don't know that you left the mountain?"

Li Miaoxuan had heard about Daqian since she came out of the secret realm. She left in a hurry and had no idea about the mountain closure. She explained, "I didn't know about the mountain closure when I left the mountain. However, Master also knew that I was leaving..."

Elder Qin was furious and said, "Are you using the sect leader's title to pressure me? Even if you are the sect leader's true disciple, you still need to abide by the sect's rules. I see that you are spoiled and disrespectful to your elders. You are really bold. Come with me to the Discipline Hall. I want to see if you still want to follow the sect's rules!"

Li Miaoxuan knew that Elder Qin was just trying to take advantage of the situation, but considering their past relationship, she still explained, "My disciple is not..."

Elder Qin didn't want to hear her say anything more, and shouted angrily: "Still want to quibble? Do you want me to do it myself? Fine, fine, then I will see what strength you, a true disciple, have. How dare you ignore the sect's rules!"

As he spoke, Elder Qin stretched out his hand and used the Great Seal of the Void to take it from Li Miaoxuan.

Li Miaoxuan frowned slightly, waved her arm lightly, and the huge handprint in the void disappeared into nothingness.

"Elder Qin, please respect yourself!"

Elder Qin didn't expect Li Miaoxuan to dare to resist, and he was furious: "How dare you do that?"

"Grandfather, calm down. Junior sister, please admit your mistake." Qin Baijun said hurriedly. "Shut up. This is the sect's commandment. You have no right to interrupt!"

Elder Qin shouted, and mobilized his true energy. The miracle of Zhenwu appeared outside his body, and he once again used the Big Handprint of the Void to attack Li Miaoxuan.

Li Miaoxuan raised her eyebrows. As a cultivator in the Daohuo Realm, she was so polite just now because Elder Qin had been quite nice to her in the past and as a junior, she should also give him some respect. But she was not the kind of person who would just accept things passively. She was about to take action as her true energy circulated.

Suddenly, a loud shout was heard.

"That's enough! That's all for today!"

A middle-aged woman in a purple robe fell down, suppressed by an invisible aura, and the huge handprint in the void disappeared silently.

"Master!" Li Miaoxuan bowed.

The visitor was none other than the Lingxu Sect's leader, Gong Daoxian.

She smiled slightly: "Miaoxuan is back, you go first, come to my yard at 3:30 pm."

"Disciple, obey."

After Li Miaoxuan bowed, she floated away, never looking back at Elder Qin from beginning to end.

Elder Qin's face was gloomy. "Master, this is against the rules. Even if Li Miaoxuan is extremely talented, she should not be too arrogant. If other disciples know that she disregards the sect's rules like this, how can our Discipline Hall win the support of the people?"

Gong Daoxian glanced at Elder Qin calmly and said, "From now on, don't worry about Miao Xuan's affairs. Not only you, but I will not interfere in her affairs anymore."

"why?"

Gong Daoxian looked at Li Miaoxuan's back and said quietly, "She will soon ascend to heaven."

"What? She has already..." Elder Qin's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Gong Daoxian nodded slightly, then took a step forward and disappeared.

Elder Qin stood there in a daze.

Qin Baijun asked from the side: "Grandfather, what is the gate to heaven? What happened to Junior Sister Miaoxuan?"

Elder Qin glanced at his grandson, who was once high-spirited but now listless. He did not answer directly, but sighed and murmured, "Jun'er, forget about Li Miaoxuan from now on. She is not suitable for you. She and we... are no longer from the same world."

……

In Beiquan Mountain.

Gu Yuanqing stood in front of the side courtyard, smiling and transmitting his voice to the servant in front of him: "Auntie Feng, I will tell you what I want to eat in the future. You don't have to bring me food every day."

Feng Tao was stunned, then gestured: What are you eating, sir?
Gu Yuanqing said: "Eat wind and drink dew."

Feng Tao's eyes widened, and he gestured, "Young Master, have you become an immortal? Young Master is the only one who can speak so that this old servant can hear. This old servant knows that Young Master is not a mortal."

Gu Yuanqing laughed and said, "Immortal? That's still a long way off."

Feng Tao smiled, but then gestured: I came here in the mountains to cook and wash clothes for you, sir. Now that I don’t have to cook, I don’t know what to do.

Gu Yuanqing pondered for a moment, then said, "I will find a technique that suits you. You can practice it when you are free. Although you may not achieve anything, it can at least strengthen your body and prolong your life."

Feng Tao gestured with a wry smile, saying that this old slave was no longer old enough to practice cultivation, and even if he was given some martial arts skills, he would not be able to understand them.

"It's okay. I will teach you. Besides, this mountain is different from the outside world. Maybe there will be some surprises."

……

Hexi Road, deep in the Chiyan Mountains.

Zuo Qiu sat at the head of the main hall in the valley where the Red Dragon Cult was stationed with a pale face. As a trial-taker, he never thought that he would end up in such a situation.

The Blood Tiger Demon Sword was lost, the storage bag fell into the hands of the enemy, and all the cards he had were used up. The incomparable sword energy that day had left him seriously injured and his Tao fetus was damaged. Now, let alone going to Beiquan Mountain, I'm afraid that Li Shian, who he could play with at will before, may not be able to defeat him.

The only thing he could do was to hide here, avoid the attack temporarily, and wait until his injuries were healed before making any plans.

There were less than a hundred people in the Red Dragon Cult's headquarters at this time.

With the death of its leader, the Red Dragon Cult fell into disarray, but fortunately, there are still a few masters available.

Ding Wanhe, the right protector of the Red Dragon Sect, left a man in the hall.

"Your Excellency, this man was once a servant of Gu Yuanqing in Beiquan Mountain. I happened to find out his whereabouts, so I captured him and presented him to you, Your Excellency."
