The Supreme Wild Young Master-Chapter 656 Celestial Path_1
Chapter 656: Chapter 656 Celestial Path_1
Huaxia, within a certain forest, there was a slightly strange village.
An elderly man stood in a courtyard, slowly performing a set of punches, his movements steady as a snail’s crawl.
However, if a master was present, they would definitely notice that despite his slow punches and lack of vigor, each move contained powerful concepts, reaching the highest realm of martial arts.
"Group leader..."
Suddenly, a middle-aged man walked in.
"What’s the matter?"
The elderly man’s movements didn’t cease, he continued moving slowly.
"Our spies report that Zhang Xian, Old Man Gui, and Zi Yu have left Lingxiao Island in a hurry. It seems they had urgent business," the middle-aged man reported.
The old man’s movement abruptly halted, and with a frown, he questioned, "Old Man Gui and Zhang Xian are together? He has shown himself?"
"Yes," the middle-aged man replied.
The old man nodded and said, "I see, have them continue monitoring. If there are any discoveries, report to me immediately."
"Yes, group leader." The middle-aged man nodded and left the courtyard.
The old man stood silently, murmuring to himself, "Great Senior Brother has always been hiding in the shadows. Why did he suddenly surface? Even Zi Yu was brought along."
...
In Huaxia, within a certain forest, three figures rapidly ran.
The leader was an old man clad in grey robes. Behind him was a young man and a woman.
These three were none other than Old Man Gui, Zhang Xian, and Zi Yu.
Within the intertwined vines and dense undergrowth, they moved as easily as if they were traversing flat ground. They moved swiftly, like a breeze darting through the forest.
"This is the place."
At one moment, Old Man Gui suddenly stopped in front of a huge stone monument and said, "The last time I happened to pass by here and discovered a cave. As I was about to enter, the cave suddenly disappeared and this large stone monument appeared instead. The scene changed without warning, which makes me believe that this place is protected by a formation."
"There are words on this stone monument," Zi Yu looked at the monument and said, "However, the characters are a bit strange."
Zhang Xian said, "These are characters from Ancient Times. There is indeed a formation here, but it’s very weak. Otherwise, Master, you wouldn’t have been able to discover this place’s secret."
"You mean..."
Old Man Gui looked at Zhang Xian and said, "The formation is about to dissipate and sometimes it stops functioning by itself, revealing its true nature?"
"Yes..."
Zhang Xian nodded and said, "This place is not simple. The words ’Immortal Path’ are written on this stone monument."
"Immortal Path?" Old Man Gui’s expression changed slightly.
Zhang Xian looked at Old Man Gui and asked, "Master, do you seem to know something?"
"Several years ago, I obtained a strange book which I have never mentioned to you. I couldn’t recognize any of the characters in that book. They should be of the same type as the characters on this stone monument. However, that book can impart information to me. It provided me with one piece of information," Old Man Gui said with a serious expression.
Zhang Xian asked, "What information?"
Old Man Gui looked at Zhang Xian and countered, "How much do you know about Ancient Times? When you received the ancient heritage, I had my suspicions. After obtaining that strange book, although its contents were somewhat elusive, I was amazed by the means to transmit information it had. Now, the appearance of a formation in this place, that ancient time..."
"I don’t know much."
Zhang Xian said: "However, the events of Ancient Times must be true. After all, I did receive the inheritance, didn’t I?"
"Hmm, I am now completely convinced."
Old Man Gui said: "Having lived for so long and having reached the pinnacle of martial arts, I didn’t expect to still be a frog in a well at the end. This world truly is infinitely marvelous! In fact, beyond our current space-time, there exists another space-time. The great powers of Ancient Times left the world we know now through a teleportation array."
"Left through this Immortal Path?"
Zhang Xian, already aware of these events, was not surprised. "Did that book mention why the cultivators of Ancient Times left en masse? Why would they leave?"
"The Spirit Vein was exhausted and there was insufficient Spiritual Energy, no longer suitable for cultivation."
Old Man Gui said, "As for the reason, the book did not mention it, as if deliberately avoiding this topic. However, the book did mention that when they left, they left behind an inheritance, a teleportation array. If a fortunate person from a later generation found it, they could use the teleportation array to leave Earth and go to their space-time."
"Is the inheritance the one I received?"
Zhang Xian scratched his nose and smiled, "I’m a little confused. Why did they leave only one inheritance? Wouldn’t it be better to leave a few more to give hope to more people? And why did they take everything from their sect without leaving anything to us? Wouldn’t Earth be unable to travel to their space-time without resources?"
"The more people there are, the more disputes will arise. That’s why they didn’t leave more." freeweɓnøvel~com
Old Man Gui laughed and said, "As for resources, they said that unless one is a Heaven Bearer, going to their space-time would mean death. Therefore, they didn’t leave any resources."
"The Heaven Bearer?" Zhang Xian’s face twisted into a bitter smile.
The so-called Heaven Bearer refers to people with extremely good luck who receive the favor of heaven in their cultivation.
He didn’t know if he could be considered a Heaven Bearer, but he had stumbled and fumbled his way to where he was today, and had already set one foot into the Spiritual Origin Realm.
He had already taken the elixir. Once it takes effect, he could step into the Spiritual Origin Realm and become a true cultivator.
"Are you guys discussing about the Ancient Times?"
Zi Yu, standing to one side and looking somewhat confused, asked, "We seemed to have come across an ancient sect earlier, and there was a teleportation array inside. This is the path of the Immortals, what was that?"
"Exactly!"
Zhang Xian, wondering about the ancient sect, said: "This is the Immortal path, what was the purpose of the teleportation array in that sect?"
"You encountered a teleportation array in that sect?" Old Man Gui asked in surprise.
Zhang Xian nodded, "Uh, I think I saw a teleportation array in that sect, a pretty big one. However, I have no idea how to activate it."
"You can’t activate it in your current state."
Old Man Gui said, "The books clearly stated that to activate the teleportation array, power at the Celestial Origin Realm is necessary."
"Celestial Origin Realm?"
Zhang Xian’s mouth twitched unnaturally, "I haven’t even broken through to the Spiritual Origin Realm yet, given the cultivation environment on Earth, when will I reach the Celestial Origin Realm?"
"You can collaborate with several others."
Old Man Gui said with a smile, "As long as your spiritual energy reaches the degree of the Celestial Origin Realm, you can activate the teleportation array."
"Celestial Origin Realm..."
Zhang Xian sighed, "The level of Celestial Origin Realm is higher than the Spiritual Origin Realm, and the density of spiritual energy is on a totally different scale. It would take at least three cultivators at the Spiritual Origin Realm."
"Then find three."
Old Man Gui said, "You have quite a few wives, Yao Rao and Zi Yu are both promising, with good innate talents. If you can find some resources, breaking through to the Spiritual Origin Realm wouldn’t be a problem, right? Of course, resources might be difficult to find, and you might not find any at all... But as long as you can wait, they, too, could one day enter the Spiritual Origin Realm."
"Uh..."
Zhang Xian asked, his expression astonished, "Is that why you had them marrying me?"
"What did you think?"
Old Man Gui chuckled, "Two beautiful women hand-picked by your master... aren’t you pleased?"
"No..."
Zhang Xian grinned, "How could I possibly not be pleased?"
"I didn’t have a choice."
Old Man Gui explained: "After all, the issue of cultivation involves too much. I simply wouldn’t trust anyone else, so I had to pick two women for you. I can’t guarantee others, but I trust Yao Rao and Zi Yu completely. Once you have enhanced their abilities and find one or two more people, you can activate the teleportation array."
"You old fool..."
Zhang Xian looked at Old Man Gui and asked, "Are you trying to get me to leave this place?"
"What, you don’t want to go?" Old Man Gui asked with a smile.
Zhang Xian laughed and didn’t reply.
"Zhang Xian..."
Zi Yu looked at Zhang Xian, her brows furrowed, asked, "Didn’t you answer before because you didn’t want to leave?"
"What didn’t I answer?" Zhang Xian looked at Zi Yu.
Zi Yu said, "Back at the sect, when you saw the teleportation array, your expression was clearly different. I think it’s about this."
"Have you heard a saying?"
Zhang Xian chuckled, "Better to be a rooster’s head than a phoenix’s tail. I’m fine here, why would I want to leave? And besides, I don’t even have the power to protect myself yet, taking you guys there would be asking for death, wouldn’t it? You should know that I’ve just stepped onto the cultivation path - going to the world of cultivators would be like offering myself up for slaughter."
"Uh..." Zi Yu had no words.
Old Man Gui was also startled, looking at Zhang Xian. He didn’t expect the boy to think that way.
If a cultivator reaches a certain stage, they can gain immortality. Old Man Gui was surprised that Zhang Xian would give up such an opportunity.
Regaining his senses, he smiled and said, "Whether you go or not is up to you, I won’t interfere. However, you should consider your Senior Sister’s situation."
Zhang Xian grinned, "Of course."
"Hey..."
Blushing, Zi Yu glared at Old Man Gui and said angrily, "Master, how can you do this? I... I should have the right to decide my own affairs."
"You can decide all other matters, but not this one."
Old Man Gui said, "Being a master for one day makes one a father for life. As your master, I may not be able to make decisions for you, but your master has already agreed. So, you must marry Zhang Xian."
"I won’t..."
Zi Yu turned her head away, "This is too unfair, arranging my life-long matter without my consent."
"What’s unfair?"
At this point, a figure came walking from one direction, "I’ve already discussed your affair with Zhang Xian with your master, you must obey the arrangement, and no mischief is allowed."
