C271 Heaven Man
Once they reached the foot of Carefree Peak, Xu Yang and the others quickly found the entrance to a valley filled with immortal light. They approached in that direction, but soon found out that this place could not fly.
This proved that the area around the valley had an incomparably powerful Dao-level barrier protecting it!
"Hey!" "This aura …"
Before Xu Yang and the rest could react, Little Tian, who was the quietest, suddenly left Bai Lianxue's embrace and ran into the valley along with the aura.
Xu Yang and the rest were worried that this girl would do something rash and dangerous, so they hurriedly followed. Soon, they saw a huge rock that was countless years old lying in the middle of the valley.
At this moment, Little Tian quietly looked at the rock and went closer to gently stroke it.
"I can feel it. The aura of that old Taoist is exactly the same as yours!" What exactly is going on? "
Little Tian's bright eyes actually began to sparkle, causing everyone present to be stunned.
Finally, a cyan ray of light slowly appeared from within the huge rock. It truly condensed into the outline of an old man and lovingly caressed Little Tian's body. Although it was only an illusory caress, Little Tian was still able to feel the existence of that aura.
"It's really you, Taoist!"
Lil 'Tian raised his head and looked over. That benevolent face had really appeared. Tears of excitement dripped from his eyes as he hugged the old man tightly. The happiness in his heart could not be described in words.
One must know that even in Xu Yang's team, Little Tian was usually very aloof. Other than Bai Lianxue and Tuantuan, sometimes he even dared to ignore Xu Yang. After all, with Xu Yang's background, he could do whatever he wanted.
But now, this girl seemed to have completely turned into an obedient little girl. She acted like a spoiled child in her grandfather's arms and no longer had any of the immortal aura of a nine petaled Towards Heaven Plant.
"Kid, you've grown up! "It has been glorious for hundreds of thousands of years. It was just a flick of a finger …"
Everyone turned pale with fright as they stared in disbelief at the soul form elder in front of them. They were so shocked that they couldn't even speak.
It had to be known that no matter how strong Cultivator of the Human Clan was, even without a physical body, he wouldn't be able to maintain his soul for long. However, the cyan Soul Light in front of him was able to stand guard here for hundreds of thousands of years just by relying on a giant rock, which was a bit too scary!
"Dao leader grandpa, can you tell me why you are like this?"
The old man smiled amiably: "Because I still have a mission to complete, so I have to stay here. The body of my Homo Clan is not enough for me to complete this mission, so I can only entrust my soul onto this stubborn rock that has existed since the ancient times, and then I can continue to stand guard outside the valley. However, after losing my body, I won't be able to move, and won't be able to see you for the past few years."
At this moment, even Xu Yang, a proud son of heaven, could not help but nod in shock.
Perhaps this so-called 'karmic luck' was used to describe this old man …
Perhaps because he felt a peculiar aura fluctuation from within his gaze, the old man slowly turned around. The first thing he did was to lock his attention onto Xu Yang.
"Heart of Close Dao?" That's right. Little Tian, are these people your friends? "
Little Tian pouted as if he wanted to say something, but he could only sigh and nod. "I guess it can be considered as something similar."
"Hahaha …" If that's the case, then my mission might not be far from completion. The reason you all have come this time, is because you want to enter the Buried Cultivator Graveyard, right? "
Xu Yang pondered for a moment before seriously nodding his head. He did not forget to clasp his hands at the old man: "Senior, may I ask if there was a group of North Jin people that came here before?"
The old man was still smiling amiably, but this time, he did not give Xu Yang a positive reply.
The Dao Gate has an order for all cultivators who wish to enter here, life and death are decided by fate, and there are no obstructions. If you can come out alive, then you have the qualifications to become an esteemed guest of the Free and Unrestrained Dao Sect, and do what you wish to do in the future.
If you do not want to take this risk, then leave. If you force your way into the mountain, you will face the consequences of destruction. "
From start to finish, the old man had never revealed the slightest bit of sharpness. He really did look like an old man, even to the point where a gust of wind could shatter his soul.
However, Xu Yang and the others understood that this mysterious old man was probably one of the most terrifying existences in this world …
Not for anything else, just a perfect Soul Body could live for hundreds of thousands of years on a rock! It was impossible for ordinary mortals to imagine such a feat.1
"It seems that the waters of the Carefree Dao Sect are much deeper than we imagined …" Senior might not want to tell me the details, but since you've come, isn't it a pity not to go in? "
Xu Yang turned around and looked at the crowd, "This place is extremely dangerous and is not suitable for everyone to enter. If they are not careful, they will die. If you are willing to stay, I believe that with the protection of this senior's aura, even if you meet Taba Yun and the others, you will still be able to keep your lives. "
"Damn!" Boss, our lives were saved by you and Female Emperor. If it weren't for you, we would already be dead in the East China Sea, so no matter what, we can't let you take the risk yourself. Furthermore, this place is extremely dangerous, so there must be a great opportunity hidden within. "Hahaha!"
Loong Kun used this reason to stop Xu Yang, which made him at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Xu Yang naturally understood that this guy was just like the others. He was worried about himself, so he decided to follow them. Not letting them seek an opportunity was just Loong Kun's joke.
However, from a different perspective, was he really qualified to decide the fate of others? A truly qualified leader should be able to bring everyone together and also protect them in times of danger. This was what he should do!
"Perhaps what you brat said is right. What I want to do is to protect and support you when you need it, and not to close the door that could change your fate from the very beginning. If that's the case, then we shall walk side by side in the mountain of blades and sea of flames! "
This time, everyone's eyes lit up. They did not want to gain any lucky chances, but because Xu Yang's words had completely ignited the passion in their hearts.
From the beginning to the end, the old man had always been staring at Xu Yang. He did not take his attention away from Xu Yang even half a step. Only after hearing Xu Yang's words did he finally reveal a satisfied smile.
"Perhaps hundreds of thousands of years of waiting can truly come to an end in the near future. "This guy called Xu Yang is truly a heavenly figure."
