I have an alchemy furnace

#634 - Meeting Shekong, Reflection in Water (Two in One)

"Can I take a look?" Ji Die still wanted to see it with his own eyes, no matter how big it was.

"This matter..." The middle-aged man with white hair was in a dilemma.

"It's not that the star map needs to be kept secret, but the star map cannot be taken out. The place where the star map is located is also an important place of our Duolan Sect..."

"As long as you can lend it to me for a look, I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future. This is my token." Ji Die said firmly, and suddenly there was an extra token in his hand.

The white-haired middle-aged man did not rush to answer this. Although the favor of Master Guixuan might not be worth mentioning to him and the Duolan Sect now, Ji Die's potential was there, so he certainly would not be short-sighted. He didn't really want to refuse, and he also looked closely to see what he took out.

"The Immortal Lord of Rain, Li Shi..." The woman in white was also curious about what he had taken out. However, after taking a closer look, all of a sudden, all the words seemed to be stuck at the corner of her mouth. She was stunned with a complicated expression, staring blankly at the words "The Immortal Lord of Rain" on it.

This token is obviously Ji Die's token of the Immortal King. He took it out only now, and there must be a reason for it.

After all, fame is just fame. In this world, strength is everything.

It will be much better to prove your strength first and then take out the Immortal Lord Order than to take out the Immortal Lord Order first.

“Ha…haha…no wonder, only the Immortal Lord of Rain can comprehend the Dao of Rain, Master Guixuan. The famous Immortal Lord of Rain is actually you…” The white-haired man was indeed even more moved.

Before, Ji Die had been very important in his heart, and he had almost treated him as the same as Du Zhen. Now that this token had appeared, his importance in his heart had risen a lot again.

After a hundred generations, he realized the great truth. He dared to believe that his life would be eternal.

"I'm lucky... I wonder if you can let me see it..." Ji Die didn't change.

"Fellow Daoist, please come this way... In fact, even if it is a sect's important place, as long as I am here, we can make an exception." The white-haired middle-aged man also fully demonstrated the speed of changing his expression.

If the other monks of the Duolan Sect saw this, they would probably be dumbfounded.

"Thank you, senior." Ji Die also put away the Immortal Lord Order.

"My name is Li Shi. I'm sorry for hiding it from you."

These words were naturally spoken to the woman in white. The woman in white had no chance to interrupt the conversation between the two. Listening to these words, she felt that everything was so dreamy. She could never have imagined that the Immortal Lord of Rain, whom she had just heard of not long ago, was now standing in front of her.

"Okay, okay. Let's go. I'll take you there." As a True Immortal, his attitude had changed drastically. He even changed his address. With just a wave of his hand, the space around him changed, as if he had teleported. When he reappeared, he had already arrived in front of a vortex in the secret place of the Duolan Sect.

Few people know about this place, even among the monks of the Duolan Sect. There are few monks nearby, and even the elders of the Duolan Sect find it difficult to set foot here on weekdays.

"There is a middle thousand world inside, which cannot be broken by the true cultivators. The ancestor of our sect cultivated in it." The middle-aged man with white hair had already released his spiritual consciousness, as if he had entered the vortex. He said something, but after a moment, he got a response.

"The star map is inside. I have just asked the ancestor. Please come in, fellow Taoist."

"Middle Thousand Worlds." Ji Die was also looking at the vortex in front of him. He was not unfamiliar with this term. He had a broken Middle Thousand Worlds in his body. When he heard that She Kong was also in it, it was no wonder that the other party had refused before.

"Let's go, fellow Taoist." The middle-aged man with white hair took out a token. The passage to the vortex had just been opened. In order to show that he had no ill intentions, he took the lead and stepped inside.

Having come here, even if there is danger, Ji Die has to take a look. Besides, this person has no reason to harm him. After Ji Die pondered, he also took a step forward and entered the so-called middle thousand world. The space around him began to change, just like teleportation. When he came out again, he came out of another vortex. Under his feet was an endless land. The light around was not too bright, a bit like dusk when night was about to fall, but there were countless stars in the sky.

He was not the only one around. Besides him, the woman in white was also coming to this place for the first time. She was also very uneasy.

Even the elders of the Duolan Sect rarely have the opportunity to set foot in this place. She has never been here either, but has only heard of its name.

"Fellow Daoist, these stars above our heads are the star map!!" It was not the first time that the white-haired middle-aged man came in. He smiled slightly and raised his head with emotion.

"These stars are not real stars, but are the magic of a certain generation of ancestors of my Duolan Sect. They correspond to the stars of cultivation in the eastern part of Dongming.

Moreover, even the original locations of those cultivation stars in the eastern part of Dongming and the nearby cultivation stars all have corresponding locations. In simple terms, it is a smaller version of the eastern part of Dongming. Although, with the passage of time, some cultivation stars in Dongming have changed their locations or something has happened, but roughly speaking, it should be correct."

The position of the cultivation star in the Rain Fairyland is naturally not fixed. Normally, as time passes, the cultivation star will also move. Ji Die has heard of this before.

However, Ji Die was still moved by such means and he immediately raised his head. However, he could not see anything from this perspective. It seemed that most of these stars were the same and there was no difference.

"Fellow Daoist, you can probe your spiritual consciousness into these stars, and then you can sense the information of the stars," the white-haired man smiled and continued to introduce that such a method is definitely worth being proud of.

"This is also the reason why the star map cannot be branded, otherwise I could have let you take a look at the copy before."

"Can the spiritual sense sense every star..." Ji Die's eyes flickered, and his spiritual sense spread out. Fortunately, the ground was not far from the sky. His spiritual sense covered the stars, so he could see them more clearly, like small balls of light. When his spiritual sense came into close contact with a ball of light, there was indeed some more information in his mind, which was the name of the star. It seemed that someone had left some tricks in it.

At this time, the white-haired middle-aged man did not interrupt him. Even if it was just a reduced version of the star map, the eastern part of Dongming was too big, and there were many cultivation stars. Even if he wanted to see them all, it would take more than a short time.

And at this moment, the world under the starry sky suddenly began to drizzle with rain, which contained Ji Die's spiritual consciousness.

"Rain..." The middle-aged man with white hair slightly raised his eyebrows and looked in the direction of Ji Die. He vaguely felt that it was related to him, but still said nothing.

But even if the sky-peeking rain was spreading for five million miles, six million miles, it still couldn't cover all the stars, the light balls, the number of stars was indeed too many, but when the rain touched those stars, the divine consciousness inside could also spy on the information of those stars.

Ji Die was also immersed in his own world, and disappeared on the spot, walking aimlessly under the starry sky, looking at the rain in the sky, and constantly touching the stars.

"Huayue Star, Duolan Star, Tianya Star..." Every time his consciousness came into contact with the light ball, his mind would also have more information about these stars, some of which were stars he had visited before.

Every time, he just took a quick look and continued forward. Unconsciously, he saw more and more stars and learned the names of more and more stars. Some of them were names he had heard before, or were recorded in the jade slips Shuangnian had given him before.

This proves the accuracy of this star map.

However, these stars also have an end after all. The middle-aged man with white hair and the woman in white seemed not to catch up.

No one knows when, but within a radius of 5 million miles, there are no more stars.

"There is no Gou Chen star..." Ji Die also stopped and sorted out the huge amount of information. There are too many cultivation stars in the eastern part of Dongming. He needs to digest all this information.

"Isn't the Gou Chen star in the eastern part of Dongming? Where in Dongming is it..."

Even so, this star map still gave him a lot of information and help. Now, Ji Die also closed his eyes.

"Dongxuan Star, the Siming branch, may have other star maps..."

"Haven't you found the place you were looking for?" An old voice came from the space in front, interrupting his thoughts.

Ji Die also looked at the space in front of him. He just noticed that beyond the stars, at the end of the earth, there was a city. The sound came from there.

"Hello, senior." In this place, the other party's identity was very obvious, Dolan Zongshekong.

"My dear friend, you are welcome. I heard that you want to see me. It is not convenient for me to move around now, so I can only ask you to come over and have a chat." The old voice did not appear.

Ji Die clasped his fists and headed towards the city. If the other party wanted to harm him, it would be the same whether he went or not.

Moreover, he wanted to ask for help.

He was not far from the city, and with his speed, it didn't take him long to reach the city. However, the city didn't look very big, and there were people inside, but they were basically mortals.

"I don't know why there are some mortals living in such a place." Although Ji Die was puzzled, his spiritual sense had already sensed an old man. There was no aura on him, just like a mortal. He looked extremely old and exuded a sense of decadence. He was standing on a bridge, with a stream flowing below and reflecting the bright moon. It was obvious that he was the one who had just spoken.

"Greetings, senior." Ji Die certainly didn't really regard him as an ordinary person. He appeared on the bridge and clasped his fists.

"Ghost Xuan Great Perfection, the Great Way of Rain?" The old man also opened his eyes slightly and smiled.

"My friend, why are you looking for me?"

"I would like to ask you, senior, to do me a favor. Send me to a place. To be honest, I am not from Dongming. My family elders arranged for me to undergo training before, and I went to the east of Dongming through a teleportation array."

In front of such a strong man, there is no need to conceal anything. It is better to be straightforward. Of course, Ji Die also has to make up a reason to increase his weight, and he has already thought about how to make up this reason.

"Not from Dongming?" This opening remark made the old man slightly stunned, but he did not doubt anything.

"No wonder, you are a genius from outside Dongming. No wonder I have never heard of your name before. I wonder where you are from?"

"Please forgive me, senior. During this training, the elders of the family have stipulated that family matters cannot be disclosed. I will use the family's reputation to gain the support of the family." Ji Die continued to lie calmly.

"Of course I should." The old man just smiled, showing an expression that said, "I understand." The power behind Ji Die, who could cultivate an existence like the Immortal King, must not be simple. Even if it is not in Dongming, there is no need to offend it.

"I don't know what you want me to do for you this time?"

"I want to go to Dongxuan Star to meet an acquaintance of an elder in my family. I would like to ask the senior to escort me."

"Escort me for a while?" The old man did not rush to answer, but pointed at the water slowly, as if to test me.

"A true cultivator must see through the real and the fake. What do you think is the real?"

"There is truth and there is falsehood. Truth and falsehood are opposites. For example, the present is truth and the past is falsehood. What can be touched is truth and what cannot be touched is falsehood. The Great Dao is truth!" Ji Die could also see the other party's intention of testing him. Facing a Shekong strongman, he also expressed his own feelings.

The old man just smiled at his insights and did not express his opinion.

"How do you think we can seek the truth?"

The word "seeking truth" obviously means how to seek truth! !

Duzhen!

Ji Die didn't have much idea, but he still thought about it seriously and didn't rush to give an answer.

"Then let's change the subject. What do you think, my friend, is the moon in the water real or imaginary? Or is the reflection in the water real or imaginary?" The old man did not urge him, but just smiled and pointed at the bridge.

Hearing this, Ji Die also lowered his head and looked at the bright moon and his own reflection reflected in the flowing stream. From a normal person's perspective, these were naturally fake. Even a three-year-old child who had not practiced cultivation could give a definite answer.

But Ji Die felt that it was not that simple, because he had a vague feeling that the other self in the water seemed to be looking at him as well.

This feeling was very strange, and it also made him confused about which side was real and which side was fake... He didn't know how to prove it.

Maybe... he in the water doesn't exist in another world either? Or maybe he is just a dream of the reflection in the water?

However, he in the water could not answer this question. He was always there.

Obviously, at first, he was only looking at the reflection in the water, but now, Ji Die seemed to be looking at himself.

"Real and false, what is real and false? I in the water am false, but what about the real me... Is it possible that I am also false..." Ji Die asked himself. In order to think about this question, he stood on the bridge for one day and two days. There was a constant flicker in his eyes, and a unique aura gradually gathered around him. He kept thinking about that question.

If there were a cultivator who had already attained enlightenment here, he would suddenly realize that he was going through the stage of attaining enlightenment.

Seek truth!

Unlike before, this time, the old man did not urge him, but just stood quietly by the side, as if waiting for his answer.
