The other party's original attitude was relatively kind, but after seeing Li Fan raise this question, his expression changed slightly.
"Haha, fellow Taoist, I'm afraid I heard it wrong. I don't know the original preaching place!" He waved his hand quickly, as if you had found the wrong person.
Without waiting for Li Fan to respond, he flew straight into the distance.
The speed is so fast that it is even faster than the ordinary Yuanying monks.
Li Fan finally met an insider, how could he let the clue slip away like this?
He immediately followed him, but he didn't follow too closely, he just hung far behind.
At the same time, he kept transmitting: "Fellow Taoist, please don't misunderstand me. I have no ill intentions. I'm just very interested in what you just said."
Not only did the man in front of him make no reply, he actually sped up a bit more and tried to get away from Li Fan.
Li Fan, on the other hand, followed closely and persevered in persuading.
After more than half a day, the other party finally stopped gradually after seeing that he couldn't get rid of Li Fan.
Looking around, he saw no one around, and his face was uncertain.
After hesitating for a while, he whispered: "This is not the place to talk. Fellow Taoist, come with me!"
Li Fan smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Well, thank you in advance, fellow Taoist!"
Follow this person all the way west, fly hundreds of miles, and dive into the bottom of the sea.
We arrived at a building that looked like a Crystal Palace.
Inviting Li Fan to sit down in a room deep in the cave, the other party sighed slightly: "It's not that I refused to tell you before, but I was really afraid that disaster would come out of my mouth!"
"What do you call fellow Taoist?" Li Fan nodded and did not rush to delve deeper, but first asked the other person's name.
"Sima Changkong!" The other party waved his hand, and a servant with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish appeared.
After pouring two cups of tea for the two of them, he bowed and left.
Li Fan couldn't help but glance at the servant.
"It's just a species of beast. It's a private hobby that makes fellow Taoists laugh!" Sima Changkong took a sip and said calmly.
"Beast species..." Li Fan's eyes flickered.
Senior Brother Zhang also called the half-animal, half-human corpses found in Mr. Bai's basement in Ningyuan City this way.
I thought it was extinct, but I didn't expect it can still be seen today.
However, Li Fan didn't have any idea of taking revenge. He just nodded slightly and brought the topic back on track.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, right..." Sima Changkong revealed Li Fan's clone identity in one sentence.
"Now in my private residence, I can speak freely."
"Do you know why Ten Thousand Immortals Island is called Ten Thousand Immortals Island?"
Sima Changkong asked.
Regarding this issue, Li Fan also had doubts.
Because the heavenly cities in each state are named after the state.
For example, Daoyuan City, Shilin City, Tianyun City, etc.
But this place where Congyunhai is located is not called Congyun City or Island, but Wanxian Island.
However, he also searched the classics and found no special records, so for a long time, he only thought it was a common name.
Now it seems that there seems to be another secret here.
"I would like to hear the details." Li Fan looked solemn and listened.
"A long time ago, when Congyunhai was still a plain, there was a big lake."
"There is an island in the lake. It was here that the Heavenly Master who preached the Dharma preached to everyone for the first time."
"At that time, thousands of monks and mortals gathered here to listen to the teachings of the Immortal."
"In the end, they all understood the immortal method of Tianzun, which established the original foundation of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance."
Sima Changkong said eloquently.
"Perhaps it was blessed by the gods, but the mountains and rivers changed and the seas changed, but the island never changed its shape."
"It wasn't until thousands of years later that the current Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance was established. When choosing the location of the state city, in order to express respect for the Heavenly Lord who spread the law, this island was chosen."
"To a certain extent, it is not an exaggeration to say that this island is the origin of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. So everyone calls it, [Ten Thousand Immortals Island]."
Sima Chang explained the ins and outs to Li Fan in a concise and concise manner, drank a cup of tea deeply, and looked at Li Fan secretly.
Li Fan carefully savored the meaning of Sima Changkong's words and frowned slightly: "Since it is the origin of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the place where Tianzun first taught the law, why are so few people aware of it now?"
“Even relevant information is difficult to find.”
"Not only that, but you were also taken away without any precautions?"
Li Fan shook his head, as if he didn't quite believe what Sima Changkong said.
Sima Changkong sighed: "This is the reason why I didn't want to say anything before."
He paused and was silent for a moment.
Then he said frankly in a low voice: "Tens of thousands of ancestors sacrificed their lives to spread Tianzun's new method. This is how the foundation of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is established today."
"This was originally a heroic undertaking worthy of a special mention and remembered by all the monks today."
"But now it has been treated coldly or even sealed."
"The reason is that the Heavenly Lord has not been born for many years. And the people who control the power of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance are no longer the original tens of thousands of preachers."
Sima Changkong drank the remaining tea in one gulp and said: "The battle between the old and new laws is actually more fierce than we imagined. In the past, when the sect faced an existence that could shake its own rule, it was natural that it would not be stingy.
Butcher knife."
"Almost all the truly pure Dharma preachers died in the struggle against the original sect."
"Those who are surviving today are just young people who have stolen the power of the Heavenly Lord."
There was a trace of disdain in Sima Changkong's tone.
……
Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly.
This reason is barely acceptable.
In mortal dynasties, it is nothing new that the change of power causes the image of the heroes of the previous generation to be forgotten or even distorted.
This principle still exists in the world of immortality.
"Being able to go through vicissitudes of life without changing its shape. This Ten Thousand Immortals Island may indeed hide some secrets."
"And the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance must have investigated carefully before and couldn't find anything, so they ignored it."
"But the Five Elders Association got some news recently. That's why they took the risk of an all-out war and took Wanxian Island captive."
Thoughts flashed through Li Fan's mind.
Not long after, he looked at Sima Changkong, who was still secretly aggrieved, and asked aloud: "Fellow Taoist Sima, it seems that he knows a lot about the secrets of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance."
"But according to what you said, the symbolic significance of this Ten Thousand Immortals Island seems to be greater than its actual value."
"It doesn't seem like it's worth taking such a big risk for the Five Elders Association to take them away by force? I wonder what fellow Taoists think of this?"
Sima Changkong's face became serious.
He thought for a moment and said slowly: "I have an idea."
"The original transmitters of the Dharma practiced very quickly, so their concepts and habits were quite similar to ordinary people."
"After death, there is a saying that fallen leaves return to their roots."
"So back then, after the practitioners died in battle with the Immortal Sect, the remaining bones were often sent back to Ten Thousand Immortals Island by their companions for burial."
