Tian Yuan

After a long time, the old man sighed: "The nine-step realm is so difficult. I have been cultivating Taoism for 28,000 years. The deadline is approaching and I can't cross the threshold. It seems that I have no chance."

From this sentence, it is not difficult to know the old man's strength.

The Eight Steps of Shenqiao, the pinnacle!

He is only one step away from the nine-step quasi-emperor realm.

However, this step was like a chasm, which wiped out the old man's fighting spirit, and his hope gradually faded.

"What's missing?"

Chen Qingyuan didn't know the old man very well, so naturally he wanted to ask more questions.

The two met for the first time today, and their first impression was not bad.

If appropriate, you can give some guidance.

Based on Chen Qingyuan's life experience, it is not difficult to find the problem and give some advice.

"I don't know." The old man shook his head: "Maybe this is fate!"

"I don't believe in fate, I only believe in myself."

Chen Qingyuan said calmly.

"I can't see through you."

After getting along for a while, the old man could only see Chen Qingyuan's superficial Mahayana cultivation. Apart from that, there is nothing else.

"Me too, I don't know much about fellow Taoists."

Chen Qingyuan said softly.

"I don't have much story, I'm just a cook." The old man laughed at himself, and then with a solemn expression, he added: "Fellow Daoist Chen is completely different from me. You have an invisible and intangible power that goes straight into the sky, which is very exciting. Palpitations."

"No way." Chen Qingyuan said modestly.

"Intuitively, if I were to compete with fellow Taoists, it would be difficult to tell the winner. But in a life-and-death battle, the one who dies will definitely not be you."

The old man spoke in a hoarse voice, and a hint of fear flashed in his cloudy and deep eyes.

"Not really."

Although Chen Qingyuan said this, his eyes were flat and he agreed with this point of view.

Anyone under the quasi-emperor can fight.

This is not just talk.

"The Law of the Forbidden Land has come to the world, and Taoist friends fight with swords, which is amazing." The old man praised: "If it were me, even if I didn't die on the spot, it would be almost the same. How could I talk and laugh like this with Taoist friends, like Nothing happened."

"Serious words."

Chen Qingyuan smiled.

"I have something that I don't understand. Can you please clarify it?"

Now that the conversation has reached this point, the old man continues to talk along the topic.

"please say."

It is not difficult to speculate that the puzzling matter should be related to the restricted area.

"Why did the forbidden law suddenly come to the world?"

At the old man's level, it is not difficult to learn some information about the restricted area. After all, Cangyuzhou used to be part of China, and many ruins contain historical books from ancient times.

"do not know."

Chen Qingyuan had no expression on his face and shook his head.

"Alas! The world is prosperous and turbulent." The old man was very sensible and did not ask further questions. Instead, he sighed and looked into the distance with a little sadness in his eyes: "The end of the old age is approaching, and I may not be able to witness the arrival of a new era. "

"There will be this opportunity."

From his words, Chen Qingyuan felt a trace of sadness and offered words of comfort.

"By the good words of fellow Taoist, I hope I can still bear it!"

The old man is in his old age, and the energy and blood in his body have dried up. He can only move without moving, so that he can live a few more years.

"Can the Holy Medicine Spirit Marrow have any effect on fellow Taoists?"

Before saying this, Chen Qingyuan thought for a long time. The first impression was good, and the old man was a strong man worth making friends with, so it would definitely be worthwhile to sell a favor.

"It doesn't have much effect." The old man was very clear about his situation: "What is missing is not an external object, but an intangible opportunity. It is ethereal and void, with no trace."

All of a sudden, the atmosphere was dull.

"I am very lucky to meet fellow Taoist Taoist." The old man stood up slowly, the wrinkles on his face were clearly visible, and he said with a pleasant expression, "I have other journeys, so I'll say goodbye."

He stood up, packed his things, and prepared to leave.

As soon as he took two steps forward, he heard Chen Qingyuan's voice: "Fellow Taoist, stay here."

"Anything else?"

The old man looked back, slightly confused.

"Da da da..."

Chen Qingyuan took a few steps toward it. With the palm of his left hand facing upward, a dark blue jade slip appeared, emitting a little bit of mysterious light: "For the sake of our destiny, I give this to each other. I hope fellow Taoists can break the shackles and gain See the higher scenery.”

After saying this, the jade slip floated in front of the old man.

"This is?"

The old man did not reach out to take it yet, but looked at Chen Qingyuan with extremely surprised eyes, asking for an answer.

"I don't know if some of the life insights from the Shenqiao Realm are useful to fellow Taoists."

This thing is so precious that it can be called a peerless treasure.

After much thought, Chen Qingyuan decided to form a good relationship.

"Thank you." The old man didn't have much hope at first. He just regarded it as a gesture of goodwill from a fellow traveler, raised his hand as a gift, and then took the jade slip in the palm of his hand.

"Take care, I hope we can meet again." Chen Qingyuan said with a smile, cupping his fists: "Next time we meet, fellow Taoist friends will show off their cooking skills, and I will be responsible for the drinks."

"it is good!"

Although today is the first time we have met, we have similar personalities and we regret meeting each other too late, the old man said with a smile.

"call out--"

In the blink of an eye, the two of them parted.

Green mountains and green waters, no one around anymore. There was only one table and two wooden chairs left by the lake. There still seemed to be a bit of fish and wine scent left in the air, drifting in the wind to the horizon.

A few days later, the old man arrived at a certain old place. The end is approaching, and I like to reminisce about the past. I plan to visit the places I remember deeply and take a good look at them.

Finally close your eyes and you won’t have too many regrets in life.

In a small town of a mortal dynasty, the old man sat on a stone beside the ravine and took out the jade slip given by Chen Qingyuan.

Since it is a heartfelt gift, it is natural to take a look at it and not let it down.

There were no restrictions on the jade slips. The old man penetrated it with his spiritual thoughts and gained various insights into the way of the divine bridge.

From being dull at the beginning, it gradually turned into excitement, excitement, and shock.

"boom--"

A powerful force was released from the old man's body, and the emotions were difficult to suppress. His face was filled with a complex expression, and his pupils sometimes expanded, sometimes contracted, and flickered with strange light.

"It's hard to repay this great gift!"

I thought it was an ordinary Taoist opinion, but who would have thought it was the original experience of many outstanding people entering the realm of quasi-emperor.

For the old man at this moment, it is a timely help and a deep kindness.

Chen Qingyuan is more down-to-earth. Since you don’t know where you went wrong, then give me the true understanding of Taoism in the realm of Shenqiao and go and understand it yourself!

"The favor is too big to be owed."

The old man only saw a small part of the jade slip and was already extremely shocked.

Holding the jade slip tightly, the old man saw that the road to the sky was no longer obscured by the fog and became increasingly clear.

"When we meet again, we must show off our true cooking skills and let Chen Daoyou have a good taste."

It took the old man a long time to calm down. He decided to find a quiet place to meditate.

At the same time, China.

A huge storm is about to start, and the culprit is Nangong Ge.
