Just as we were about to go up, those Cantonese men blocked our way with guns. "Hmph, only we can walk the path to immortality. You'd better stay here obediently."
One hundred and six immortal paths have come to naught.
“I’m ￥￥@”
"Damn it, I shouldn't have saved you guys. I just made trouble for myself."
We immediately became enraged. The old blind man rolled up his sleeves and said, "Who's afraid of who? At worst, we'll fight to the death." No sooner had he finished speaking than one of the other men swung several shots at his feet, startling him into retreating hastily.
"Damn you, you bastard! You've crossed the river and burned the bridge!"
Xiang Fei's expression was unfriendly. "Although you have guns, you don't have the upper hand. Don't forget that in this place, guns can't solve everything."
The two sides were deadlocked when another group of people arrived. I recognized them as my cousin and his friends.
They came over, and now we're in trouble.
I'm speechless. It's obvious that my cousin and his group are like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, coming in now to reap the benefits.
The starlight on the mountaintop was even more dazzling. The stone steps had appeared. If we didn't act now and missed this opportunity, who knows when we would get another chance.
Xiang Fei winked at me, and I immediately understood. As everyone knows, Yin-Yang Masters can reverse Yin and Yang. Although we are far from being able to do so, we can still reverse Yin and Yang in a small area. For example, we can make the Yin and Yang of the area we are in right now out of balance. If they fire their guns, they won't be able to hit us at all.
Without making a sound, we took our positions, then shouted at the same time. The Yin-Yang formation was set up almost instantly. Then we quickly made hand seals, and the Yin and Yang of this underworld were disordered.
Those people then realized what was happening and immediately started shooting at us. My cousin and his gang, seeing the situation was not good, also raised their guns and started shooting, but no matter how they shot, they couldn't hit us. The scene immediately turned into chaos.
In the end, several people from both sides were shot, and one of them was almost riddled with bullets.
My cousin was the most cunning. When he saw that things were not going well, he was the first to run away. Then the others also ran away and headed towards the top of the mountain. The injured and the dead could only lie on the ground and leave their fate to chance.
At this point, we calmly walked up. Since Yin Zhen still needed to be activated, we didn't believe they had the ability to do so.
As expected, when we went up there, both groups were pacing around in circles. However, it was clear that my cousin's group had the upper hand, because there were only two people left on the Guangdong side, two of whom were injured and one of whom had died in the underworld. My cousin's group still had five people left.
Seeing us come up, both sides felt a little awkward. My cousin nodded and smiled at me, "Zhiwa, you guys should do it. You're good at this."
We couldn't be bothered with all that. Anyway, the Yin Array was activated, and we still needed to get out and find the true 'path to immortality' in the place where Yin and Yang intersected.
Several people took action, and having gained experience in activating the Yang Array, they activated it smoothly this time. Then we ignored them and went down directly, watching them still foolishly waiting for the 'Path to Immortality' to appear.
We quickly left the underworld, and as soon as we ran out of the stone gate, we saw a dazzling starlight in the center in front of the two mountains. To our stunned gaze, a huge stone platform appeared, which looked similar to the altar of the ancient Shu Kingdom.
It is at least thirty or forty meters high, shrouded in starlight and mist, with stone steps leading up to it.
Without any hesitation, we climbed the stone steps, a total of one hundred and eight steps. We were all sweating as we went up.
A stone tablet comes into view, which reads, "The path to immortality is fraught with uncertainty; who knows if it will all end in nothingness." It seems to be reminding future generations to choose carefully, because once they embark on the path to immortality, there is no turning back.
We went up and saw that the other side of the stone tablet was also covered with ancient characters. "Zhuge Kongming is gone" was one of the ancient characters. The others were all names. It was clear that they were all great people. Some of the names could be traced back to before the Qin Dynasty. You can imagine how ancient this underworld is.
We were utterly shocked. "Did Zhuge Liang ascend to immortality?"
Inside the stone platform, there is a huge magic circle, a yin-yang symbol, which... seems to be the key to unlocking the path to immortality.
Uncle Liu from Hunan has already taken action to activate this magic array, using the principles of Yin and Yang and the Eight Trigrams to deduce its workings. Eventually, Xiang Fei and the old blind man also joined in.
I shook my head. The path to immortality is too elusive. No one can say for sure whether immortals even exist in this world. Even if the 'path to immortality' were opened now, would climbing it guarantee immortality? Perhaps it was just a pursuit by our predecessors, a kind of obsession.
Soon they activated the Yin-Yang symbol, and as we watched, it slowly separated, emitting a dazzling light that shone into the sky. Then the entire sky brightened, and a hazy, illusory stone path appeared within that brilliant light, exuding an ancient and weathered aura.
The stone path leads to the horizon, and no one knows where it leads.
They looked at each other, unsure of what to say for a moment. After a while, Xiang Fei finally spoke up: "Shall we go up?" He then looked at me and then at the old blind man.
I quickly shook my head, "Becoming an immortal is too unrealistic. Let's just live this life well."
The old blind man sighed, "Alas, I'm already over sixty, and I only have about twenty years left to live. I should go back and live my life properly."
Surprisingly, no one went up. "This place leads to the sky. What if it suddenly stops or ends up? People would fall from the sky and die a terrible death."
