Chapter 8: Immortals and Mortals Separated Forever
High in the sky, the vision is reborn!
A giant sword that had been tempered for thousands of years was placed in a dark place, and no one cared about it for thousands of years.
As the years go by, its sword body is no longer bright, its blade is no longer sharp, and its body is covered with rust!
However, a feeling of anger and unwillingness suddenly emerged!
The corrosion of rust is becoming more and more serious, but the magic and majesty of that giant sword are also increasing day by day!
"Foundation-building monk Daoxuanzi, who has practiced Taoism for two hundred and one years, achieved the foundation of Taoism with the rare object [Rusty Sword Daoxuan]. In the land of immortals, he fought with others, and finally died at the hands of foundation-building monk Kou Hong."
"Now that the body is dead and the Tao disappears, the Tao returns to heaven!"
The gorgeous scene lit up the sky thousands of miles away like fireworks.
"Dao Xuanzi..." Kou Hong looked up at the magnificent scene, seemed completely stunned, and kept mumbling to himself.
All the soldiers present also looked up at the sky, dazed.
"I, Li Fan, have met the immortal master."
At this moment, an old man with white beard and hair, holding a cane, walked tremblingly to Kou Hong.
Kou Hong ignored it, and Li Fan was not in a hurry. He stood waiting aside and motioned to the soldiers to wait patiently.
After a long time, when the vision in the sky dispersed, Kou Hong looked at Li Fan.
"Are you the leader of the mortals here?" Kou Hong's tone was stiff, obviously he didn't have a good impression of Li Fan. "That voice that was everywhere was you, right?"
"The little tricks are not enough to win the eyes of the Immortal Master." Li Fan handed over his hand and avoided talking about the matter. Instead, he went straight to the end and said, "I also ask the Immortal Master to have mercy and save the lives of more than a thousand people in my clan."
"Mercy..." Kou Hong sneered upon hearing this. "My fight with Dao Xuanzi is based on our abilities, and we live and die according to our destiny. You, a mere mortal, actually interfered in the battle between us immortal cultivators."
He looked at Li Fan, and the murderous intent in his words was undoubtedly revealed: "Speaking of which, although Dao Xuanzi and I fought to the death for the pill formation technique, he has been my brother for more than a hundred years. Now that you are plotting against him, I am Don’t I want to kill you to avenge Dao Xuanzi?”
Not paying attention to Kou Hong's aggressiveness, Li Fan just smiled bitterly: "It's just a chance of survival! As the old man said before, if the immortal master loses, my people will surely die."
When Kou Hong heard this, his expression softened. He sighed softly: "It's a chance to survive. You are right, the world is difficult, and who is not struggling for that chance of survival?"
Seeing Kou Hong's tone softening, Li Fan quickly hit the snake with a stick and said, "Before, Dao Xuanzi... the immortal master promised me that if..."
Before he finished speaking, Kou Hong frowned and interrupted: "If this is the case, I'm afraid I will disappoint you. Dao Xuanzi may not have the intention to fulfill his promise from the beginning."
Li Fan was stunned for a moment: "What does the immortal master mean by this?"
Kou Hong said with a hint of ridicule: "For hundreds of years, Dao Xuanzi has always had an image of being serious and telling the truth in front of others. He never imagined that he actually had no bottom line in his actions and even deceived ordinary people."
He paused, looked at Li Fan's face, and then said: "The Immortal Formation is so dangerous. It was a certain amount of luck that the two of us were able to break in before. It would have taken a lot of effort for us to leave. How can Kung Fu lead a mortal to leave?"
"What? You don't know how to leave this place?" Li Fan's heart was shaken, and his face became extremely ugly. More than a hundred years of expectations were rejected by the immortal cultivator in front of him, and Li Fan's mentality almost collapsed.
Fortunately, Li Fan has been tempered for several generations and has a tough mind. He calmed down and said to Kou Hong: "This is not the place to talk. Master Immortal, please come with me."
With that said, he led Kou Hong for a while through the ruins of Xuanjing City and came to an underground bunker.
When Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi fought before, the soldiers in the city hid in these bunkers. In Xuanjing City, there are hundreds of similar bunkers, large and small.
Although the bunker is hidden deep underground, it is illuminated by lights and is still as bright as day. There are also ventilation ducts to connect to the outside world, making it less stuffy.
Kou Hong looked at the lights on the ceiling with great interest and praised: "No wonder Dao Xuanzi would ask you mortals to cooperate before. Being able to restrain and utilize the power of thunder and lightning, it seems that for thousands of years, you people in this immortal land have been Mortals have really developed well, and the hidden weapons from before are also quite powerful."
Then, he shook his head again: "It's a pity that these magic weapons are of some use only in this place where the Great Dao is incomplete. Outside of here, under the pressure of the Great Dao Law, these things are useless."
"Speaking of which, when did Dao Xuanzi find you and ask you to plot against me here? The timing doesn't match up? Could it be that he secretly practiced the art of clones?" Kou Hong suddenly remembered something and asked suddenly .
Li Fan remained calm and was about to answer, but Kou Hong suddenly lost interest and waved his hand: "That's all, I'm still worried about what to do with this matter. After death, everything is in vain." After saying that, he was He sat directly on the chair, looking quite depressed. It seemed that he was deeply affected by Dao Xuanzi's death.
"It's best not to ask about this matter. If you say too much, there will inevitably be some flaws." Li Fan thought to himself.
Then he asked Kou Hong with an uneasy look on his face: "The immortal master said before that he cannot take mortals out of this immortal place. Is this true?"
Kou Hong sneered: "You are just a mortal, what did I lie to you for? Maybe a monk in the Golden Core Stage can protect a mortal to break through the Immortal Formation, but if you only have cultivation in the Foundation Establishment Stage, it is absolutely impossible!"
"Of course, if you don't mind leaving only a few fragments after you go out, I'm willing to give it a try."
Not paying attention to Kou Hong's not-so-funny joke, Li Fan asked unwillingly: "Is it possible that mortals like us have no hope of leaving this world?"
Kou Hong thought about it and shook his head: "If you want to leave the immortal land, you must break through the immortal formation. With a mere mortal body, there is no possibility of breaking through. All attempts are just seeking death. Besides, you are half buried in the ground, why are you still so persistent to leave here? Isn't it good to be a local emperor?"
Kou Hong looked disapproving.
"It doesn't matter if I die, but I still want to leave a memory for my descendants." Li Fan did not give up, and asked again: "If my descendants can practice to the foundation-building stage like the immortal master, then it is possible to leave here?"
Kou Hong laughed: "Not to mention that there is no spiritual energy here, it is impossible to practice at all. Just to say that immortals and mortals are forever separated, the mortals here are covered with miasma, how can they practice immortality?"
Kou Hong sneered: "I advise you to give up this idea. You mortals, if you want to practice, you can only go to the outside world to reshape your body and wash away the miasma. Otherwise, even if you are placed in front of you, you can only see it, but you can't touch it."
Kou Hong was so sure about several questions in a row, and Li Fan seemed to have finally given up.
"Immortals and mortals are forever separated, immortals and mortals are forever separated..." Li Fan muttered to himself in a state of despair, "So, there is really no way?"
"Really not." Seeing that Li Fan was extremely depressed, Kou Hong was in a good mood for some reason.
"Really not." He repeated.
"As the immortal master said, immortals and mortals are forever separated." Li Fan sighed.
"Ah, right, right." Kou Hong nodded repeatedly.
As if struck by this cruel fact, Li Fan said goodbye and left in a trance.
The moment he walked out of the bunker, the door slammed shut.
Kou Hong's face changed, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
But it was too late.
The rolling white mist containing immortal and mortal miasma gushed out from all over the room.
"Ah!"
Kou Hong screamed and was drowned in the thick fog.
Outside the bunker, Li Fan looked dim and said slowly: "Since immortals and mortals cannot coexist."
"Then how can I, a mere mortal, dare to completely believe what you say."
