Chapter 2554 Simple Years
"Haha~"
Chen Xun chuckled thoughtfully, "That makes sense, but it seems we're almost there. Let's leave the path to immortality to the Eternal Immortal Realm. We really can't go any further. We can only nurture our Great Dao, but there's no need for seclusion to do so."
"Moo!" The big black ox's eyes gleamed, and it let out a loud breath.
A barely perceptible hint of helplessness flashed in Chen Xun's eyes.
Although its foundation was once as deep as a mountain, there were still countless rare and precious materials in the world that it could leverage.
But now that they have attained the Ten Thousand Paths and added points to the system, there are no more rare and precious treasures in the Eternal Immortal Realm that can shake their foundation. Let alone any opportunities beyond the heavens, the Eternal Immortal Realm itself is the greatest opportunity in the world.
The big black ox had a good attitude. Anyway, he was immortal and invincible, and his current cultivation level was enough for them to roam the world freely.
As the saying goes, the great way has no end.
That means there's no end. When will those immortals reach the end of their cultivation? We can leave the future to the eternal world. Let's not waste our time trying to endure it. If we can't endure it, it's tantamount to wasting our precious years.
Chen Xun sat on the antique chair, nodding in agreement, and chuckled softly, "Do you think Little Chi is asleep or cultivating?"
suddenly!
Two pairs of eyes stared at the figure in the corner, whose entire body was covered by a tattered cotton quilt.
Gululu~~~
Little Red was sleeping peacefully and calmly, and his breathing seemed quite rhythmic, though he actually looked like he had been gone for quite some time.
Back then, its journey to the River of Time to retrieve rare and precious materials nearly exhausted its soul. It was time to take a nap and recuperate. The amount of immortal power consumed there was terrifying, and it didn't have the strength to remain unscathed like the Great Black Ox.
Bang!
A flying kick followed by a cow's hoof.
Xiao Chi suddenly bumped into the wall and asked in a daze, "Brother Xun, is dinner ready?"
Suddenly, its eyes snapped open, and it became fully awake, feeling refreshed. It even let out a loud roar in the old house!
on the table.
A letter was left behind.
It belongs to the third sister.
She left customs early because she had some important things to arrange.
However, Nangong Heling is someone who is constantly being fed by the ancient immortals, so it's normal that she doesn't particularly like seclusion.
They chatted quite naturally about all sorts of things in the house.
The old house was very bright and airy, with endless rays of sunlight sneaking in through the windows, as if trying to eavesdrop on what the ancient Dao Ancestor was saying.
The next day.
Chen Xun pushed open the door of the old house, took a deep breath and smiled. In front of the old house was a wide and quiet road, with ancient trees that had been there for millions of years and formed a forest of solitary trees, full of vitality.
"Old Niu, Little Chi, let's not go far this time. Let's stay at home."
"Moo!"
The big black ox showed a hint of joy. It still wanted to farm and had long since stopped liking to wander around outside. It had its own things to do.
"Hooray~~" Little Red's eyes also showed surprise.
It naturally prefers to stay within the sect, belonging to the group of spirit beasts that least like to travel far. It could even spend its entire life on the Heavenly Fracture Plains, possessing a remarkably stable temperament and an unwavering Dao heart...
Not long after.
Chen Xun picked up his hoe and went off to dig something, while the big black ox ran off to its own plot of fertile land. Sure enough, when you're doing what you truly love, you look incredibly energetic and full of vigor.
Little Red squatted in front of the old house.
It did nothing; it just stood there watching.
In the days that followed.
Chen Xun often dug up some flowers and plants to plant around the old house. Xiao Chi tilted his head left and right, looking at Chen Xun with a puzzled look in his eyes: "Brother Xun, have you changed your preferences?"
"what?"
Chen Xun wore a straw hat, looking like a country bumpkin.
"I remember you used to like looking for stones, but I've never seen you tend to flowers and plants." Xiao Chi looked puzzled, having only ever seen her tend to flowers and plants with Sister He. "But Brother Xun, I know that the Five Elements Sect has many wonderful places, and the Toad's place has the most exotic flowers and plants."
"Hehe, just messing around a bit." Chen Xun smiled brightly. "Besides immortality, your brother Xun is proficient in everything. Growing some flowers and plants is nothing. In a few hundred years, the area outside our old house will probably be full of wildflowers."
Speaking of wildflowers.
Chen Xun suddenly looked regretful and waved his hand, saying, "I'm going to see an old friend."
"Roar~~ Xun-ge, wait for me!" Xiao Chi jumped up and chased after him like a whirlwind.
After a stick of incense.
They climbed an ancient tea mountain, which appeared unusually inconspicuous on the entire ring-shaped mountaintop. This was because the mountain was so small that it was smaller than the palm of some ancient creatures, and smaller than the enormous spirit beasts on the ring-shaped mountaintop.
However, this ordinary tea mountain is a forbidden area of the entire Five Elements Immortal Sect, containing its ancient Heavenly Dao rules.
Beside a tombstone in the mountains.
Chen Xun smiled slightly, squatted down and said, "Yaoyue, the tea is not finished yet. Your Yuehuang clan has a legend that the sun and moon are in the same sky. My clan has existed since ancient times, and even since the cycle of reincarnation. If we are destined, I hope we can meet again."
"If we are not destined to be together, then I wish that you have been reincarnated and are living well in the Eternal Immortal Realm."
His voice was very gentle and unhurried. He began to personally tend to the wildly growing spiritual herbs on both sides of the tombstone, while constantly muttering to himself, as if telling her about the experiences of countless years and the changes in the ancient immortal realm.
Little Red stayed far away, chasing after some mountain butterflies and constantly frightening them.
Although it sounds noisy, it makes this place seem unusually tranquil.
Chen Xun stayed here for one night.
The next day, the sun was high in the sky.
They left together, walking slowly down the mountain.
Chen Xun would occasionally look up at the shadows of flowers swaying in the mountain breeze, watching them bloom and fade silently yet grandly.
When spring arrives, the mountains are covered in blossoms, as if seeing the world for the first time.
In the height of summer, the sea of flowers surges forth, intense yet fleeting.
When autumn arrives, they fall one by one, carried by the wind to dust, leaving no trace.
When winter comes, the mountains are silent, and all things seem to be asleep.
But he knew in his heart that when the mountain winds rose again next year, these flowers that had sunk to the dust would bloom again in a new form.
Regardless of its old name or past life, it follows the pulse of heaven and earth, blooming once again under the sunlight.
And so it is with living beings.
The end of one journey is merely the beginning of another.
Chen Xun held Xiao Chi and gently turned his head. He was looking at something, but a peaceful smile appeared on his lips.
But this peaceful atmosphere was soon disrupted by an old man.
Ke Ding traversed the Yuzhu Mountain Range and stormed into the Wuyun Sect.
Upon seeing Chen Xun, he shouted with a loud laugh, "Chen Xun!!"
Chen Xun looked up and involuntarily waved and smiled, "Ke Ding!"
Roar...
Xiao Chi narrowed his eyes slightly. As expected of the old Daoist Xianqiong, he was able to foresee that they had already emerged from seclusion.
"What are you doing?" Chen Xun shouted.
"If there's nothing else, have some tea!"
"Then let's stop talking nonsense and set up the table."
……
With a beaming smile, Chen Xun set up a tea table right outside the old house. The tea table's craftsmanship and cultural depth fully demonstrated the terrifying nature of a super-rich upstart in the ancient immortal realm.
Ke Ding nearly dropped his teacup, his eyes widening in shock.
This is no longer a tea table; it's clearly a celestial palace that has been shrunk to a mortal size!
The entire table is made of the Creation Jade that has been nurtured for hundreds of millions of years, with starlight spirit gold from the forbidden lands of the Three Thousand Immortal Realms embedded in the corners. The patterns naturally flow with the charm of the Dao and the glow of the clouds. The table surface is covered with a whole piece of Enlightenment Immortal Stone. Before the teacup is even placed, the primordial immortal energy has already begun to rise.
As soon as the teapot hit the ground, a celestial spring descended from the void, and before the tea leaves had even awakened, the surrounding plants and trees were already imbued with its spirit.
"Tsk tsk..." Ke Ding pointed at Chen Xun, looked at him, then stared intently at the tea table. His throat bobbed, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time, utterly shocked and stunned. You're telling me, a cultivator...
How did he manage to become so rich overnight? It's enviable!
"Heh, these are just trivial trinkets, not worth mentioning." Chen Xun let out a long, steady laugh, like a nouveau riche, and waved his hand. "Ke Ding, look at your ignorant attitude. If you like..."
Ke Ding took a deep breath, his eyes brightening slightly.
"Of course, it's impossible to give it to you."
