"There, I saw the nine-colored divine deer flying in the clouds and mist, saw many immortals flying with swords, saw sesame and ginseng everywhere, and smelled the fragrance of the elixir..."
"That is a secret realm, a world where immortals live, a secret land of the Immortal Sect."
"There, even the air is sweet. After taking a breath, an ecstasy feeling arises spontaneously. At that moment, I felt several years younger..."
The old man was immersed in nostalgia for the past and couldn't help himself. His empty eyes seemed to have brought his soul back to the past.
As for me, I was also surprised by the past events the old man told me, and I finally understood why he mentioned immortality before.
You must know that there is a difference between immortals and mortals. It is such a blessing to be able to step into an immortal mountain inadvertently, but he happened to encounter it.
At this moment, I held my breath and looked forward to the old man's further explanation.
"Soon, some immortals discovered me. At first, they thought there was a foreign invasion. Suddenly the alarm sounded and thousands of swords flew. It looked like the Milky Way flowing across the sky. It was so spectacular."
"Fortunately, someone soon noticed that I was just an ordinary person and did not guide the sword waterfall to fall, otherwise the murderous aura alone could tear me to pieces."
"Later, after being interrogated by them, I found out that this secret realm was guarded by a large protective formation. Not only could the secret realm be hidden in another space that overlapped with the space where we live, but it also had considerable protection.
ability."
"The most important thing is that this formation was always on that day. And I just walked in..."
"Many powerful immortals have checked the formation one after another and found that there is indeed no abnormality. Everyone is surprised."
"Finally, a higher-level immortal leader met with me and concluded that it must be because of my destiny."
"He decided to keep me here and let me do some odd jobs in this secret area. At the same time, he also taught me some simple exercises and formulas."
"The Immortal said that if I can practice that technique, I will be allowed to stay in the Immortal Mountain forever and pass on my true Immortal Technique."
"From that day on, I stayed there for a total of ten years! But no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't learn that simple set of skills that in their eyes was clearly not even an introduction."
"I have asked many people for advice, and they have all enthusiastically taught me, but nothing has changed."
"In the end, even the immortal leader personally asked about my matter, and he reluctantly announced that my physique is not suitable for cultivating immortals at all."
"It seems that apart from having better luck, my physique, bones, etc. are all useless among useless materials. Let alone cultivating immortals, I can't even reach the innate realm in the secular world."
"The immortal said that my body seems to be insulated from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, just like sand that cannot store water. No matter how many spiritual entities enter the body, they will eventually disperse."
"At that moment, I felt that my sky was about to collapse, and my life was bleak. After I went back, I locked myself in the hut alone for a long time before I figured out one thing, a very simple thing."
The old man took a sip of the tea and said with a smile: "There are times in life that must come, but there is no time in life. Don't force it!"
At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the moment when he realized the true meaning of life, and completely let go of the last trace of obsession in his life.
"At that moment I really realized that this was my destiny and I had to accept it!" he said.
"Although many immortals knew about my situation, they did not dislike me or drive me away. Instead, they allowed me to live in the Immortal Mountain as before."
"But I just feel awkward. If there was hope before, I still feel that life is full of hope, and my heart is full of longing for the future. It seems that I will soon become a flying immortal."
"But it's completely different now. I feel like I'm a redundant person and I'm incompatible with the entire secret world."
"Finally, one day I made up my mind to leave quietly from the place I accidentally stepped into, just like I did when I came ten years ago."
"I didn't say hello to anyone or say goodbye to anyone, but I knew that with the methods of those immortals, they must have known about my departure."
"My departure went surprisingly smoothly that day. It was as if the protective circle couldn't sense me again and allowed me to leave safely."
"I know that someone must be watching me secretly and doing all this. There is no farewell, but it is better than a farewell, if this can be considered a farewell!"
At this point, a few strands of tears suddenly shed from the old man's eyes. He did not wipe them away, but let them slide across his cheeks and drip down his chin...
"I am like a lonely ghost, coming quietly and going quietly."
"To the immortals on the fairy mountain, I am just a passerby. To myself, I have just lived in the wrong place for ten years."
"I thought that my immortal fate was completely over here, but what I experienced later told me that it was not..."
"That day, when the night wind of the wilderness blew into my face again, I suddenly realized that I was in the outside world."
"Actually, I know that I have come out a long time ago. But under the huge loss, I felt like a walking zombie, walking aimlessly in the wilderness for a long, long time..."
"The feeling of having the whole world all at once and then suddenly losing it is really bad."
"When I woke up, I realized that I was lost and didn't know where I was."
"Actually, where is the road in the wilderness? Wherever your feet go, there is the road!"
"In fact, how can you get lost in the wilderness? There are roads everywhere, but there are no roads everywhere!"
"It was also at that time that I discovered that there seemed to be a person lying in the wilderness ahead..."
"I knew he was an immortal through the clothes he was wearing, because I have seen this outfit for ten years. It is exactly what the immortals in the secret realm of the Immortal Mountain wear on a daily basis."
"He doesn't look very old, but there are injuries all over his body. It's obvious that he has experienced extremely brutal fighting before."
"When I found him, he was already dead."
"Looking at his cold body, I felt relieved all of a sudden."
"It turns out that even the lofty immortals are mortal."
"It turns out that immortals are no different from us ordinary people when they die."
"After all, I had a fate with that fairy mountain. I found a way to dig a hole where he died and bury him on the spot."
"I think that if he could insist on running to this place before dying, he is destined to this place, to his grave, or...to his next life!"
"But I left one item behind, which was an ancient mirror that he held in his arms until he died..." (To be continued)
