The modern city, surrounded by lights and feasting, represents the prosperity of humanity.
This world is dominated by people, and talents are the protagonists of the world.
If we look at it from this perspective, wouldn't it be contrary to the trend to abandon one's identity as a human being to seek immortality?
In fact, it is ridiculous to say that the original intention of many people who want to become immortals is just to stay human for a longer period of time.
As long as you can live a long time, it doesn't matter if you are an immortal, a devil, or a monster.
The key is immortality, not immortality.
So it is not so much about seeking immortality as it is about seeking immortality.
World Tower.
This building is known as the location with the best Feng Shui in Beitai. Just the name can reflect the ambition of the person who built this building.
He wanted this building to be the center of the world.
It's a pity that the center of the world cannot be on this small island no matter where it is. This is a place that I came here to run away from. In the end, this ambition can only be buried forever.
I am afraid that the owner of this building has never thought that someone is taking advantage of the unique Feng Shui pattern of this building to do something here that is destined to shock all mankind - becoming an immortal!
On the 23rd floor of this building, just after exiting the elevator is the front desk and lobby of Hyundai Company.
But after entering a fully enclosed electromagnetic door that requires a remote control switch, you will find that there is something else going on here.
There is an ancient Taoist temple inside!
There is actually a building within a building hidden in a modern building!
This Taoist temple is called Zhenxian Temple, and it is a historic site in Jiaozhi.
Seven years ago, two Chinese Ph.D.s who returned from studying in the United States founded a company called "First Advanced Technology" in Wanwan. They spent four years turning this company into the leading high-tech company in Wanwan.
Just when everyone thought that First Advanced Technology Company would become Wanwan's new high-tech business card, these two PhD students studying in the United States did something that surprised the whole world.
They sold the company, cashed in 2 billion, rented an entire floor in the World Tower, and moved an ancient Taoist temple in Jiaozhi here brick by brick.
They restored the original "True Immortal Temple" one by one and let it reappear in the most prosperous building in Beitai.
And these two Ph.D.s, who were worth billions and studied in the United States, also gave up everything, became Taoist priests, and took on a large number of disciples.
This incident became a curiosity for a time, attracting major media reports.
As time went on, people eventually lost interest in the matter.
But the True Immortal Temple on the 23rd floor of the World Tower will remain here forever.
Su Yi is now standing in front of the gate of this ancient Taoist temple.
Behind him, the electromagnetic door was still tightly closed. There was only one door between the front desk disciple who was on duty 24 hours a day and Su Yi. She would never have imagined that someone could ignore the barrier of the access control and appear in the forbidden area.
"True Immortal Temple..."
Su Yi looked at the plaque on the lintel of the Taoist temple. These three words were full of ancient meaning, vigorous and free, and a breath of vicissitudes of life came from between the lines.
It was evening when Su Yi came, and the sunlight was shining in through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the outer wall of the building, seeming to coat this ancient Taoist temple with a layer of gold, making this "building within a building" even more mysterious.
He took a step forward and his figure suddenly disappeared from the doorway.
When he reappeared, he had already appeared in the Taoist temple.
Maybe there are three entrances and three courtyards in the building, and the Xianjun Palace is separated by a wall.
What surprised Su Yi was that what this Zhenxian Temple enshrined was not a minor deity from a side sect, but the Five Ancestors and Seven Trues of the orthodox Quanzhen Taoism.
This True Immortal Temple is actually the heel of Quanzhen Tao.
The twelve statues of the Immortal Lord Hall are the five ancestors: Donghua Emperor Xuanfu, Zhengyang Emperor Zhongli Quan, Chunyang Emperor Lu Dongbin, Chunyou Emperor Liu Haichan, and Fuji Emperor Chongyang.
The Seven Realms are Changchun Master Qiu Chuji, Wuwei Master Ma Yu, Yunde Master Tan Chuduan, Changsheng Master Liu Chuxuan, Yuyang Master Wang Chuyi, Guangning Master Hao Datong, and Qingjingsan Master Sun Buer.
These are all righteous gods canonized by the Taoist sect, but offering them here is a bit out of place. After all, the method of becoming an immortal like the Five Hell Immortals has not been a legitimate way since ancient times and is not recognized by the Taoist sect.
If Quanzhen Taoism knew that its Taoist lineage had such a lineage of cultivating the Five Hell Immortals, I am afraid that it would rush to destroy it as soon as possible.
But if you know that these Five Hell Immortals are those with double pupils and become immortals, then it is another matter.
The method of the Five Hells Immortal cannot be practiced by those without double eyes, and it does not have the ability to be passed down and promoted.
Although there are no true immortals in the True Immortal Temple, there are real people.
Su Yi's arrival finally alarmed the people in the Taoist temple. The first person to discover Su Yi was a female Taoist priest who was cleaning the house.
She noticed that there was an inexplicable faint green light emanating from the Hall of Immortal Lord, so she walked out from the back hall to investigate, and saw a green skull looking around in the hall. The female Taoist priest was immediately frightened to death.
"Ghost! Ghost..." She threw away the broom, rolled and screamed, and ran back to the back hall.
After a while, dense footsteps could be heard from the back hall, accompanied by exclamations and angry shouts.
As the crowd gathered, many people wearing Taoist robes swarmed in.
When these people saw Su Yi's appearance, they were all frightened.
This is the most normal reaction for a normal person to see a skeleton running around alive and glowing blue.
The next moment, these Taoists reacted.
Two middle-aged Taoist priests, one thin and wearing glasses and the other bald and burly, jumped out. They quickly recited mantras and chanted, and threw the talismans in their hands at Su Yi while shouting.
Nothing happened.
The two talismans hit Su Yi's body and then fell down, like two ordinary pieces of waste paper.
The two middle-aged Taoist priests were even more horrified when they saw this. One of them held a mahogany sword and bit off the tip of his tongue, spitting out the Taoist blood. He then thrust the sword hard and stabbed.
Another man took out a green sword and pulled it hard in his palm. Blood immediately covered the blade. He also raised his sword to strike at Su Yi.
The remaining Taoist priests all reacted at this time, some threw mahogany swords, some threw talismans, and attacked Su Yi from a distance from the outside.
The scene was chaotic, but orderly in the chaos, which shows that the quality of this group of Taoist priests is still good.
But it's all useless.
Bang bang!
The two middle-aged Taoist priests who took the lead all flew out.
The peach wood swords and talismans that the Taoist priests on the periphery threw at Su Yi from a distance were all ineffective.
Su Yi still stood there, as if he had never done anything.
"She Qing! It's She Qing!" The thin, bespectacled, middle-aged Taoist priest finally recognized Su Yi's species, his face suddenly changed and he shouted in horror.
Although Su Yi's appearance is different from the legendary She Qing, he is covered in cyan light, rich in corpse energy, and immune to all spells. These characteristics are all the same as the legendary She Qing!
"Blood sacrifice! Chun Mei Fang gave birth to Lu Huiguang, you three go first!" Another bald, burly, middle-aged Taoist shouted decisively.
Only blood sacrifice can deal with She Qing. This is common sense in the spiritual world.
Originally, I had to ask ghosts to take this step.
But what is this place?
This is a true fairy temple!
Of course, there is no need to hire ghosts, there are people who can restrict the photography.
These Taoists are very evil and they are very fanatical in their beliefs.
Even if they were allowed to die, they would not blink an eye or question anything, as if everything was taken for granted.
The three people called by the bald, burly middle-aged man came forward. They were three disciples, two men and one woman. The three of them took out daggers and stabbed themselves in the chest without saying a word!
The eyes of the three people were full of determination and stubbornness, and some had fear, but their movements were stunned without any hesitation.
At this moment, the entire Taoist temple suddenly became a little darker.
A girl's voice sounded like a silver bell: "Stop!"
This voice seemed to have a magical power, which immediately calmed down all the Taoist priests present.
No matter what he was doing, the Taoist immediately turned to the direction of the apse and saluted Taoji.
Including the two leading middle-aged Taoists.
The three Taoists who were preparing to sacrifice themselves with blood also stopped.
It was as if the pause button had been pressed on all of them.
swish swish...
Suddenly, dust-like powder fell from the sky. This powder smelled moldy and rancid.
Su Yi frowned slightly, but did not avoid it and allowed the powder to fall on him.
The next second, the stars changed, and he suddenly appeared in an empty room.
A short-haired girl wearing a white dress was standing in front of Su Yi, looking at him curiously.
The girl's eyes turned, and her eyes actually had two pupils, which looked very strange.
The one with double eyes!
Standing in front of Su Yi was a man with double pupils!
Xie Yali, the man with double pupils!
Quasi-immortal from the Five Hells!
This seemingly fateful encounter was so unexpected.
Su Yi was pulled into the illusion by Xie Yali, but this illusion was not the kind of illusion created by ordinary sneakers.
This illusion is based on the powder that fell on Su Yi before. In this illusion, everything can be real.
For example, if Su Yi stabs himself in this illusion, he will immediately react as if he has been stabbed.
If he stabbed himself in the vital part, he would die from it.
Although in reality he was unscathed, in reality his cause of death would have been a stabbing.
This can no longer be called an illusion, perhaps it should be called a "virtual world".
Use virtual reality to create a barrier.
This is a true practitioner's technique, a very advanced technique.
And what is standing in front of Su Yi now is not just a fantasy, but——
Yin Shen!
Unlike Su Yi's "pseudo Yin Shen" who relied on ghost cores to get out of his body, Xie Yali in front of him really relied on his own cultivation to get his Yin Shen out of his body.
If it had been before, Su Yi would have knelt down on the spot if he had seen such a "big man" with an out-of-body spirit.
But now, Su Yi still has some confidence to face it.
"You are not Shaiqing, Huanghuotu." Xie Yali's eyes were spinning wildly, and he was unabashedly checking Su Yi's physical condition, "You are really weird, you are neither alive nor dead, and you still smell like a ghost... Hehe
, if the underworld gives you a status, you can take up your job as a ghost immediately."
She looks very innocent, and if you ignore her pair of eyes, she doesn't have that gloomy and weird feeling at all.
Although she is in the form of a ghost, Su Yi feels pure, holy and beautiful.
But behind this holiness and beauty, it also gave Su Yi a very inconsistent and awkward feeling.
It seems like this is a "fake" beauty.
Xie Yali looked very familiar. Not only did he call Su Yi by his first name, he also seemed very relaxed when talking to Su Yi, and even made jokes.
Maybe she is like this in nature, but maybe she deliberately wants to create such an atmosphere.
"Do you think I will like the way I look now?" Su Yi pretended to smile, opened his arms and turned in a circle in front of Xie Yali, showing off his body, "If there is a chance to do it again, I will definitely choose to do it again.
Normal people.”
"Normal people?" Xie Yali's pupils flashed, "You shouldn't think that way, Huang Huotu, most people in this world are abnormal. Just ask people outside what they want most.
?Their answer is either to pursue fame and fortune or to pursue mediocrity. No one pursues the true meaning of the great road or the essence of life. They are all lost in the world of mortals, but they don’t know it. They are so pitiful. What a pitiful bunch.
Where are the insects..."
"How are you sure you are not lost?" Su Yi looked at her and asked, "Maybe you are also the lost one, but you don't know it yourself."
Xie Yali looked at Su Yi quietly for a while and said seriously: "I am an immortal, I am cultivating my true self, and I am not lost. Huang Huotu, will you help me?"
Su Yi also looked at her quietly, then nodded slowly.
"I will." Su Yi said, "I also want to know whether there are immortals in this world. For this answer, I am willing to pay the price."
In fact, this answer is in conflict with Su Yi's mission, which is to prevent Xie Yali from becoming an immortal.
But Su Yi believes that the most important prerequisite for completing this task is that if he does nothing, Xie Yali will definitely become an immortal.
Only when this premise is established, can he have reason to "do the task".
But what if Xie Yali would not become an immortal even if he did nothing?
Then his mission can actually be won, so why bother?
In other words, the key to Xie Yali's becoming an immortal may lie in one of the links.
As long as Su Yi destroys this link, Xie Yali will not become an immortal.
If this is the case, there is no need for Su Yi to show off his chariots and horses to confront the sisters of the Five Prison Immortals, because Su Yi himself does not feel that he has any chance of winning.
This is why Su Yi came directly to kill him.
Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
To complete this task, he must at least know what the Five Hell Immortals are, and at least know the principles and process of Xie Yali becoming an immortal.
It would be too ridiculous for me to go against these two sisters when I still seem to understand everything.
"You want to know if there are immortals in this world?" Xie Yali tilted his head and looked at Su Yi with interest, "Didn't you meet my sister? If she is not an immortal... do you think there is anyone in this world who can seal it?
Photography?"
"Maybe you can." Su Yi said, "I have never seen your sister, so I am not sure whether she exists."
Su Yi paused, leaning forward slightly and staring into Xie Yali's eyes: "Maybe she really doesn't exist?"
"Maybe...it's always been you?"
The scene then fell silent.
After a moment, Xie Yali's silvery laughter sounded.
"Huang Huotu, Huang Huotu, you are so interesting! Even I can't understand you, I can't understand you. It would be a pity for a person like you not to become an immortal."
"So I'm here." Su Yi's eyes narrowed and he said calmly.
