On the way back to Shenyan Mountain, Chen Xi finally understood why senior brother Wu Xuechan was able to find him.
It turned out that when the Gongye clan united with other forces and sent out twelve domain lords, Wu Xuechan noticed it.
After all, this was a joint operation by several of the top powers in the Imperial Domain, and a total of twelve Domain Lords were dispatched!
Under such circumstances, it is difficult not to attract others' attention.
To others, this action may be special, but it is far from worthy of too much attention. But when Wu Xuechan heard the news, especially when he determined the identities of the top powers in the Imperial Domain, he immediately paid attention.
Because Wu Xuechan clearly remembered that when Chen Xi returned from the Manggu Ruins, he was suppressed by these top powers in the Imperial Domain.
The reason is also very simple. Chen Xi killed Luo Shaonong, Gongye Zhefu, Kun Wuqing, Zhai Jun, Jin Qingyang and other younger generation gods in the ruins of Manggu.
Therefore, when he realized that these top powers were once again joining forces to act together, Wu Xuechan immediately became alert.
Later, when he was investigating the matter, he even discovered that Gong Yezheng, the Taoist master of the Gongye clan, was also following him, which made Wu Xuechan feel even more strange.
Later, when Wu Xuechan realized that the person Gong Yezheng wanted to deal with was indeed his junior brother, he was hiding in the dark and resolutely chose to attack boldly. When Gong Yezheng was caught off guard, he killed the opponent in one fell swoop!
After understanding all this, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel slightly moved. He was not surprised that the senior brother had killed Gong Yezheng, but he was a little surprised that the senior brother would find something abnormal from a small detail and rush to save him in time.
once.
Doesn't this mean that during the years when he disappeared, the senior brother has always been careful about himself? Otherwise, it is probably impossible for him to achieve this step.
This was the key point that moved Chen Xi.
…
Shenyan Mountain.
The scenery remains the same, the mountains are quiet, and there is an aura of beauty everywhere.
Hundreds of years later, when he set foot in the sect again, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions in his heart. If possible, he would rather stay in the sect for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, he has too many things on his shoulders, and he can only fantasize in his heart.
one time.
"Hey, my ancestor thought it was who it was, but I never thought it was you who is back!"
As soon as Chen Xi, Wu Xuechan, and Tu Meng stepped onto the top of Shenyan Mountain, they heard a sharp voice suddenly sound.
Immediately, an extraordinary white bird fluttered its wings and soared into the sky, with its wings clasped behind its back, it stared at Chen Xi and spoke proudly.
"Old Bai, long time no see."
Chen Xi was startled and then smiled. The white bird was surprisingly Lao Bai, who was known as the "Master of All Spirits".
"Huh, it's only been a few hundred years. For the ancestor, it's just a snap of the fingers."
Lao Bai snorted arrogantly. It has always been like this, with a sharp and mean mouth, and likes to think of itself as a superior person.
Seeing Lao Bai still looking like this, without any change, Chen Xi couldn't help but laugh.
Lao Bai also burst into laughter, and immediately soared into the sky, flapping his wings, and screamed at the top of his lungs: "Come and see, come and see, this guy Chen Xi is finally back!"
All of a sudden, the whole world was filled with its sharp sound like a broken gong and drum.
"who?"
"Is it Chen Xi?"
"He is back?"
In just the blink of an eye, figures appeared from all directions. They were the third senior brother Tie Yunhai, the fourth senior brother Lao Qiongsu, Ye Yan, Wen Ting, Hua Yan and others.
Even some descendants of the Third Patriarch who heard about Daozhen's lineage also came after hearing the news. When they saw that it was indeed Chen Xi who had returned, they were all overjoyed and greeted him one after another. It seemed very lively for a while.
Chen Xi couldn't help but feel happy when he looked at the familiar faces, and he felt like he was going home after a long absence.
That night, on the top of Shenyan Mountain, Chen Xi and a group of his classmates and friends sat on the ground, drinking wine and talking about what they had experienced over the years.
At that time, the night was like water, and a disc of ice hung high in the sky, round and bright, casting a clear halo of light like a gauze.
Chen Xi and the others were drinking wine at the moon, chatting and laughing happily.
Gu Yan, Ah Liang had also been summoned by Chen Xi long ago, and was present to chat with everyone.
Most of the time, Chen Xi was talking alone, while others were listening, listening to Chen Xi talk about some of his experiences over the years.
However, when Chen Xi talked about entering the door of the End of Dharma, he was interrupted by senior brother Wu Xuechan and changed the topic.
Chen Xi immediately understood that such matters were too taboo and could not be spoken out, so he just brushed them off.
Next, Chen Xi also learned that in the years since he left, Ye Yan, Lao Bai and the others had been practicing in seclusion in Shenyan Mountain, living a pure and worry-free life, which made Chen Xi quite envious.
The banquet lasted until late at night, and everyone dispersed one after another.
Chen Xi was taken into a secret realm by Wu Xuechan.
…
The secret realm is a chaotic world, completely empty, except for an ancient Taoist altar standing in the center.
The altar is marked with mottled traces of time, and seems to have gone through countless wind and rain, making it ancient and sacred.
When Chen Xi arrived here under the leadership of Wu Xuechan, he saw two tall figures already sitting cross-legged on the altar.
The man on the left is wearing a linen robe and a purple gold feather crown on his head. His waist is like a pillar holding up the sky, and his shoulders are like stretching across the mountains.
Looking from a distance, it seems that what you are seeing is not a person, but a Creator sitting in the mountains and rivers, with boundless momentum and supreme holiness!
This person is Emperor Shun, the second founder of Shenyan Mountain.
When he first entered the Shenyan Mountain Sect and went to the "Kaiyuan Tower" to hone his cultivation, Chen Xi had met him.
The person on the right is an old man with gray beard and hair, a slender face, a body as thin and tall as a green pine, and an air of immortality.
He sat there casually, like a wisp of cloud smoke, like a clear spring, like a clear water, like a touch of morning light, revealing a natural, primitive and simple atmosphere, which made people feel an incomparable tranquility for no reason.
Comfortable feeling.
When he saw Chen Xi and Wu Xuechan arriving together, the clear old man opened his eyes first and fell on Chen Xi in an instant.
Those eyes were clear, indifferent, and gentle, with a purity and curiosity like that of a child, without any aggressive look. When Chen Xi came into contact with these eyes, Chen Xi's heart trembled for no reason, and he actually felt an invisible...
of restraint.
"Little junior brother, you have already met the second junior uncle. That is the third junior uncle Wen Daozhen."
Wu Xuechan introduced with a smile.
Hear the truth!
Chen Xi's heart was shocked, and he quickly saluted and said, "Disciple Chen Xi, I have met my uncle."
"Last time you returned to the sect, I happened to be in retreat and failed to come out to greet you. Don't blame me, uncle."
Hearing the Tao Zhen smiles, his voice is as clear as gold and jade, as melodious as a morning bell, making people feel like washing in the spring breeze and listening to the sounds of nature.
"How dare you, disciple?"
Chen Xi said quickly.
"No need to be polite, come up quickly and take a seat."
Hearing Daozhen smiled, his temperament was calm and quiet, which was completely different from that of the Second Patriarch Emperor Shun beside him, but Chen Xi couldn't tell the difference between them.
At that moment, Wu Xuechan took Chen Xi to the altar, sat down casually on one side, and then said: "Junior brother, I have called you here this time because I have something to inquire about."
Chen Xi nodded and said: "Senior Brother, it doesn't matter if you say it."
Seeing the Second Patriarch Emperor Shun and the Third Patriarch Wen Daozhen appearing here together, he vaguely guessed something.
Sure enough, the next moment Wu Xuechan said bluntly: "Junior brother, what exactly did you encounter after entering that door of the end of law?"
While speaking, Patriarch Di Shun and Patriarch Wen Daozhen both looked at Chen Xi. This matter was equally important to them.
Chen Xi organized his thoughts and then said: "When I entered the Gate of the End of Dharma..."
After a long cup of tea, Chen Xi revealed all the details of what he encountered after entering the Gate of Mo Dharma, including the power of the Hetu's fragmentation and the changes in the power of reincarnation.
There is nothing to hide in this. A long time ago, all the brothers and sisters in Shenyan Mountain have known about Chen Xi’s possession of the fragments of the River Map, the Netherworld Record and the Zhuxie Pen.
More importantly, Chen Xi still has many doubts in his mind, and he needs to rely on the wisdom of his two ancestors, Emperor Shun and Wen Daozhen, as well as his senior brother Wu Xuechan, to help him resolve his doubts.
However, after hearing all this, whether it was Emperor Shun, the two patriarchs Wen Daozhen, or senior brother Wu Xuechan, they all fell into silence, seeming to be deducing something.
After a long time, the Second Patriarch Emperor Shun, with a majestic and solemn expression, suddenly sighed: "I didn't expect, I really didn't expect, that inside the Gate of Law, there would be a place of catastrophe."
"Uncle Second Master, do you know the specific origin of that catastrophic land?"
Chen Xi couldn't help but ask.
Emperor Shun shook his head, expressing his ignorance.
Wen Daozhen said from one side: "Never mind this issue, Chen Xi, have you really mastered the entire secret of reincarnation now?"
Chen Xi nodded: "The situation was critical at that time, so this disciple had to do this."
After hearing the Tao, I really thought about it and couldn't help but sigh: "The end of the Dharma is coming to the abyss, and the consequences of reincarnation are born. The prophecy of the ancestor of the Buddha is indeed true."
"Two uncles, if you say so, will the true secret of the rumored ultimate path really be born in this era?"
Wu Xuechan raised his eyebrows and said.
"That should be the case."
Emperor Shun and Wen Daozhen nodded in unison, "However, when such an unprecedented opportunity comes, I'm afraid it will be accompanied by many unpredictable and shocking changes."
"Then...my master, will everything be okay?"
Wu Xuechan muttered.
At this moment, Chen Xi was suddenly shocked. This was the first time he heard his senior brother talk about Fuxi, the Lord of Shenyan Mountain.
"The variables are still unclear, and the fate of the situation is uncertain."
Hearing the news, Zhen sighed softly, rubbed his eyebrows, and then murmured, "Reincarnation has taken place, the end of the law is coming, there are thousands of variables, it is difficult to find one of them, from now on, I want to peep into some heavenly secrets from the way of heaven.
I’m afraid it’s impossible…”
The voice was low, revealing a touch of indescribable complexity.
