Chapter 690: The Last Portal to the Cultivation World
Wang Lan stood on the immortal platform, and the star power around him surged crazily. The star power surged in Wang Lan's body, and the star power visible to the naked eye turned Wang Lan's body into a glass color.
Suddenly, countless gems under his feet emitted brilliant light, and a space wave appeared around Wang Lan. In just an instant, Wang Lan's body disappeared.
"Wang Lan——" Jiang Xinyu's heart trembled, and she hurriedly took a step forward. There was no one on the Immortal Platform in front of her.
Wang Lan only felt that the field of vision in front of him changed, and he came to a hazy alien space. This alien space was very narrow, but the spiritual energy was extremely rich. The star power of heaven and earth condensed into a fairy mist that was like dry ice volatilizing, and spread wantonly in the space.
Ripple.
"Huh?" Wang Lan suddenly noticed that a door seemed to be looming in the fairy clouds in the distance. He walked forward and came to a simple door, but full of endless cracks.
"Ascending the Immortal Gate?" Wang Lan raised her head and looked at the classical stone carvings on the door plaque, thinking in her eyes.
This ancient door was very damaged. The cracks in many places were as thick as fingers, as if it were assembled from fragments. Wang Lan did not even dare to reach out and touch it, for fear that the door would collapse with just a light touch.
"Is this the reason why it can only be used once? The Immortal Platform is easy to enter, but the Immortal Gate has been damaged." Wang Lan murmured to himself. Suddenly, he seemed to have stepped on something under his feet. He squatted down and took a look, but it was
A skeleton.
The skeleton's posture was quite carefree, with its body turned sideways, one hand supporting its head, and its empty eyes looking at the distance corresponding to the door, as if waiting for someone to arrive, or as if it was just lying down and taking a nap.
"It seems that this is someone who came in later. Zhang Lingxian has already attained enlightenment and become an immortal. It is no longer useful to ascend to the immortal gate. He is trapped in this empty space and is trapped to death."
"You're wrong about that."
A voice sounded in the illusory world. Wang Lan flashed for an instant and glanced around with a vigilant face, "Who? Who is talking?"
"I'm right in front of you, but you ask me who I am? Didn't you look at me just now?"
Listening to the voice, Wang Lan's eyes fell on the skeleton in front of him.
A burst of white light lit up from the skeleton, and the white light turned into light particles, which rose up and quickly condensed in the air. The light group dispersed, and a hazy shadow appeared in front of Wang Lan's eyes.
This is a man with completely white hair, but a young and handsome face. There is no trace of age or cultivation.
"First of all, this person is not a latecomer. Since the Dengxian Terrace went into hiding, only two people have come in front of the Dengxian Gate, one is me and the other is you.
The second point is that there is only one chance to use the Dengxian Gate, but this opportunity is still there, Zhang Lingxian has not stepped through the Dengxian Gate, hello, I am Zhang Lingxian."
"Are you Zhang Lingxian?" Wang Lan looked up and down at the shadow, "Didn't you ascend to immortality? Why are you here and why are you dying here?"
"Let's not discuss this issue for now. Let me ask you, is it okay to become an immortal?" Zhang Lingxian sat cross-legged and suddenly said, "Don't stand still. Come, let's sit down here and talk."
"It's good to become an immortal, but it doesn't necessarily mean you will become an immortal after stepping through the gate of immortality. If it's just a long-distance journey, and it's a journey with no return, that's not good."
"Hahaha... you really know." Zhang Lingxian smiled, "But do you know that in the earth's star realm, there is a lack of immortality materials and thin spiritual energy, and mortals only live in a short period of time. No matter how hard we, the monks, keep fit,
Prolonging life is only two years of longevity at most."
"Of course I know that."
"Then do you know that in the world of cultivation, the place you mentioned long-distance travel, there are advanced techniques, abundant spiritual energy, and immortality substances. As long as you have a chance there, you will have the opportunity to break your destiny.
Round limits gain longer life.
Three hundred years, five hundred years, or even a thousand years. Although it may not be enough when your life span is about to end, but no matter what, at least you will live forever."
"Really?" Wang Lan was surprised. He only thought that the world of cultivation was in the Magellanic Galaxy, and thought it was the same as on the Azure Star. But after hearing what Zhang Lingxian said, it was really a good place there.
"Of course I won't lie."
"Then why do you stay here? Shouldn't you have crossed the Immortal Gate long ago?"
"Do you think I want to be trapped in this space?" Zhang Lingxian became furious when he said this, "Do you know how difficult it is to resist the temptation to step through the Immortal Gate and reach the fairy world?
The fairy world is right in front of you. If you step through it, you can pursue eternal life. But I have no way out yet. But I am stuck here, starved to death, thirsty, and lonely.
During those days, there were countless times when I couldn't help but want to pass, really, but every time I stretched out my foot, I had to retract it. That kind of suffering, that kind of torture, I almost went crazy."
"Why?"
"Because after I came here, I saw the long river of destiny, and I intercepted a message of destiny in the long river of destiny. I am not the person destined to step through the gate of immortality.
Every destiny is not fixed, but is subject to choice. Different choices determine different fates. If I had stepped through it back then, the passage between the human world and the world of cultivation would have been completely cut off, and humans would have been imprisoned forever.
In the galaxy.
This is the fate I bear. I bear the fate of completely cutting off the way for mankind to survive. As long as I step through it, I will be free, but mankind will sink forever. And the second person who comes here bears another mission,
He will become a bridge between human beings and the world of cultivation. Human beings will be completely freed from the shackles of the galactic ban. The future journey will be in the sea of stars.
Hahaha... How can I, Zhang Lingxian, be so virtuous? I actually carry the destiny of the human race. I can live and die with one thought. I should actually be more selfish. As the saying goes, after I die, I will let you control the flood.
Even if I choose to step through the Immortal Gate, humans don't know that their fate has been quietly determined. Hahaha... But why was I so stupid back then that I starved to death here...
Before I died, I finally understood the way of ghosts, peeled off my soul, and placed it on the corpse. I just couldn't give it up and wanted to see what the person who made the second choice for mankind looked like and what kind of hero he was.
?”
Wang Lan's eyes flashed, and she felt a little shocked. She never imagined that the fate of human beings has always been under the control of fate.
If anyone else had said this to him, Wang Lan would have scoffed. But with Zhang Lingxian in front of him, he didn't have the slightest doubt.
At that time, King Jiangshan also intercepted a hint of destiny, so he sealed himself in the original stone and waited for hundreds of years to live another life. In fact, he did live another life, although that life was very short. But if King Jiangshan had been
He can live for a long time without going to war.
What's more, what Zhang Lingxian said is not true. Wang Lan has divine power and a completely independent space. He can indeed become a bridge between Sky Blue Star and the world of cultivation through divine power.
People from the Earthly Immortal Realm can reach the Human Realm through him, and people from the Human Realm can reach the Earthly Immortal Realm through him.
After digesting what he heard, Wang Lan slowly raised his head and looked at Zhang Lingxian, "Do you regret it?"
"Regret! I regret why I didn't listen to Empress Houtu's advice and insisted on stepping into this void. Now that I'm here, I have no way out. Either I step through the Immortal Gate, or I die here."
Wang Lan stood up slowly and bowed to Zhang Lingxian, "Mr. Zhang is so righteous!"
"Don't be careless. I have been waiting for two thousand years. Two thousand years. Now I have seen you and my wish has been fulfilled. It's time for me to return to the netherworld."
"Seniors who have cultivated the ghost path, can't they last forever?"
"What is a ghost? It's just a ghost! Can ghosts still stay in the earth? Since your wish is gone, why not report to the underworld quickly?"
Zhang Lingxian stood up and shook his sleeves, "By the way, why don't you leave? After this door, you will reach the fairy world. I have sacrificed so much for the human race. When I am reincarnated, you have to compensate me well."
"Me? How to compensate?"
"Looking at your young age but your strength, you are definitely a child of luck. When you enter the fairy world, you will definitely become a hero. When you find me, how about I suffer a little loss and reluctantly become your teacher and your disciple?"
"Are you sure this is a disadvantage?"
"I, Zhang Lingxian, am extremely talented and arrogant. Throughout the ages, how many people can surpass the boundaries of human beings with my own strength? Can you make a lot of money by accepting me as your disciple?"
Wang Lan hesitated for a moment and nodded silently, "Although I didn't really believe in reincarnation before, I even saw Empress Houtu before, so there's nothing I can't accept. So how will I find you after you are reincarnated?"
"There are two characteristics. First, I will have a piece of jade in my mouth to accompany it, and second, I can eat it."
"Eatable?" Wang Lan stared, unable to keep up with this senior's rhythm.
"Bullshit, I was starved to death. In the ghost realm, I belong to the starving ghost. Have you ever heard of the reincarnation of a starving ghost?"
"Reasonable."
"On this condition, please." Zhang Lingxian pointed at the Dengxian Gate and said.
"Well, I came in a hurry and haven't explained it to my family yet. I have to go back and explain it."
"It seems that you still didn't understand what I said before. I just said that this is a closed space. Either you pass through the fairy gate, or you are trapped and die here. Do you want to go back and give an explanation? What should you explain? If you can
If I leave here, I won't starve to death here."
"We are different, Senior Zhang. I'll take my leave first and come back later when I'm ready." As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Lan's whole body twisted, and his body quickly disappeared in the twisting ripples.
Seeing Wang Lan disappear, Zhang Lingxian opened her mouth, but could not close it for a long time.
In Zhangjiajie, at the edge of the Immortal Platform in the ancient city, a group of senior leaders arrived, including the Five Emperors and others. Jiang Xinyu looked at the Immortal Platform anxiously. It had been almost two hours. Even if he went to see it, he should have done it long ago.
It's back.
But Jiang Xinyu can't go to Wang Lan's side through divine power yet. If she goes, neither of them will be able to come back.
Suddenly, the divine space trembled slightly, Jiang Xinyu's face was overjoyed, and she opened her eyes instantly. In her left eye, the windmill was spinning rapidly. The space in front of her was distorted, and Wang Lan's figure appeared in front of Jiang Xinyu.
"Wang Lan, you are back."
"How about it? Is it the fairy world?"
"The record is correct. It can only make one person become an immortal. The platform to ascend to immortality is not damaged, but the gate to ascend to immortality can only be opened once."
"Is this so..." The big bosses who gathered around all showed pity expressions. Since it can only be used once, it has obviously been used by Zhang Lingxian.
