Zhunmangjun arranged a room for Luo Yan and Shi Liuli.

The furnishings in the room were extremely simple, with only a stone bed, a stone table and a stone bench.

Fortunately, Luo Yan's storage bag contained a lot of commonly used furniture - all of which were left over after he bought some in Yuqing Temple to help Wei Dongliu decorate the Shiping Mountain Sect.

At this time, he took them out one by one and arranged them carefully in the room: there were cabinets, desks, a copper stove for making tea and tea leaves, as well as some futons and hanging paintings.

After everything was arranged, the room became much warmer. Luo Yan took out a few small flags and began to set up a defensive formation, only to hear Miss Shi, who was sitting next to him, suddenly sobbing.

"Senior Sister, what's wrong with you?" Luo Yan asked while setting up the formation.

"Are we unable to leave here forever?" Shi Liuli asked miserably.

"Ah, this..." Luo Yan paused for a moment and forced a smile, "That shouldn't be the case. Let's study the Guixu formation first, then?"

"Then Zhunmang Jun said." Shi Liuli said in despair, "From ancient times to now, no cultivator has ever been able to crack the secret of the formation and successfully leave this place!"

"Just because they can't do it doesn't mean we can't do it." Luo Yan disagreed, turned around and quietly asked the Kunlun Mirror in his sea of ​​consciousness, "Ah Mirror, can I still load the save file that was saved outside the secret realm?"

"...It's OK." Kunlun Mirror confirmed, "But the depths of this great ravine are indeed strange. If I want to teleport you out, the amount of immortal power consumed will be far beyond the ordinary."

"That's fine." Luo Yan immediately seemed to have taken a reassurance pill, and his tone became relaxed, "I knew that you can trust my A Jing no matter what! By the way, that Miss Shi..."

"No." Kunlun Jing frowned and said, "I said before that you are from outside this world and are not in the predetermined 'future' of the Avenue of Time. That's why you can travel through time and space and change your destiny. That's why I chose you."

"She is from this world. If I try to transport her through time and space, I will be attacked by the Avenue of Time immediately."

"I understand." Luo Yan said seriously, "So if I want to use you to leave Dahe, I can only leave Miss Shi here, right?"

"...That's right." Kunlun Jing was a little nervous.

Did he really want to abandon Shi Liuli here and run away by himself?

Seriously speaking, there is really nothing we can do about it.

After all, it is a very sad and helpless fact that Miss Shi cannot be teleported by me.

But...even if you want to abandon her, at least try to hesitate and struggle for a while, right?

Instead of making a cold-blooded decision right away, you'll make me feel...

Kunlun Jing couldn't help but start to think wildly, but Luo Yan didn't express his opinion immediately, but just said:

"I see. It seems this can only be used as a fallback."

"Yes, it can be used as a fallback." Kunlun Jing said quickly, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

"Senior Sister." Luo Yan began to comfort Shi Liuli again, "Don't jump to conclusions. After all, we haven't studied the Guixu formation yet. Don't easily conclude that it will fail."

How could Miss Shi not believe it? She just thought that the more than 100,000 books in the hall had not been studied thoroughly, and so many ancient cultivators and predecessors had not been able to handle it. The probability that my junior brother and I could do it was probably very small. We might be trapped here and die... When she thought of this, she couldn't help but have a mental breakdown and burst into tears.

Luo Yan was so anxious that he circled around her, wiping her tears, hugging her and coaxing her, making faces to make her laugh, and rubbing her face to make her angry, but it was all useless.

Miss Shi just cried loudly, sobbing loudly, and wiped her tears on Luo Yan's clothes.

Finally, Luo Yan had an idea and said:

"By the way, Senior Sister! You are the one with destiny! Don't you have that...metaphysics?"

He found it a little difficult to speak of it, after all, metaphysics was too ridiculous.

But after thinking about it, as long as Miss Shi believes it, the most urgent thing is to coax her first!

Speaking of "the man of destiny", Shi Liuli's sobbing really subsided.

Luo Yan struck while the iron was hot and said:

"Senior sister, you are beautiful, smart, and come from an orthodox sect. You are the daughter of an elder. It is obvious that you are loved by God. How could you end up alone in a place like this? Then why did God give you so many favorable conditions? This is totally unreasonable!"

"What you said... does make sense..." Shi Liuli said with sobs and began to blow his nose with a handkerchief.

Seeing that Miss Shi was gradually recovering, Luo Yan let her rest in the room for a while and went out to get her something to eat.

After activating the room's defensive formation, Luo Yan came to the main hall and found Zhunmang Jun lying on the throne.

"Food?" Zhunmang Jun was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "Go to the backyard garden and look for it yourself. Whether it's blood food, vegetables and fruits, or even cooking utensils and spices, we have everything you need."

"Why is this?" Luo Yan immediately became interested. "Can this place communicate with the outside world?"

"Of course not." Zhunmang Jun replied, "But there are many monks who have fallen into this place. Even if the probability is small, there will be monks carrying various livestock cubs, vegetable and fruit seeds... In addition, most monks have already fasted and do not covet the desire for food. At first, I threw them into the garden and let them reproduce freely."

"Plus, the Guixu formation enriches spiritual energy. As a result, they even flooded the garden and caused me to have to clean it up regularly. It would be great if you could help solve some of the problems."

"I see." Luo Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It makes sense. Except for a small number of cultivators, most people do not eat or drink. They are used to eating wind and drinking dew. In addition, there is spiritual power in Guixu, so it is not surprising that they can feed livestock and vegetables.

"Alas." He began to sigh. "In the outside world, life span is limited. Which cultivator doesn't desire immortality? Now that I'm here and have truly achieved immortality, everyone is afraid of it like a tiger. It's really strange."

"You only know the words, but not the meaning." Zhunmang Jun said with a smile, "The so-called immortality is only the foundation of great freedom and great ease."

"If I cannot live forever, I will have to live in fear of the end of my life. How can I be free? If I am trapped here and cannot leave, it will be like being imprisoned and suffering for life. How can I be free?"

"I'm grateful for your advice." Luo Yan first pretended to be convinced and complimented the other party a few times, then he asked casually, "I think those monks in the side hall have been trapped here for a long time, and most of them have gone crazy, but you have been here longer than them, but you don't seem to be any different."

"You can't use my method." Zhunmangjun said slowly.

"Oh?" Luo Yan was surprised. "I'd like to hear more about it. If I can keep my sanity for a long time, I will be more confident in studying the Guixu formation."

"I am a dragon." Zhunmang Jun said calmly, "Dragons have both summer and winter hibernation. They can choose to enter a sleeping state at any time to prevent their rationality from being worn away by time."

"If you have a way to become a dragon, you can try my method."

Luo Yan: ...

This is nonsense, how can I turn into a dragon... huh?
