Uncle Li began to tell his story, explaining that the two were immortals and needed to prevent their identities from being exposed.
Ten thousand years ago, the Southern Region was not so enlightened; the immortals there were not "protected animals".
Once someone discovers an immortal, they are taken back for research.
Even mortals harbor hostility towards those who live long lives, believing that eating the flesh of immortals will grant them true immortality.
Many immortals face death if their identities are exposed.
The Li couple are lucky to have survived to this day.
The two of them are unfortunate, as they have survived to this day.
But none of their children, relatives, or friends are still alive today.
"We dare not have children now, we just live one day at a time. Immortality is very good, but without the strength to protect ourselves, it is just a curse."
Aunt Li sighed.
"Many people in Changsheng Town think the same way I do. They've experienced too much and are numb to it. They don't think that longevity is a good thing."
Uncle Li, puffing on a type of opium unique to the Southern Region, said, "We are safe living in Changsheng Town for the time being, but once we leave Changsheng Town, we will basically have no way to survive. We have lost our freedom in order to ensure our safety."
"You have a point."
Han Feng agreed with their views: "In the eyes of mortals, immortality is something they dream of, but in the eyes of cultivators, immortality is just icing on the cake. If one does not have strong strength, immortality is like a curse."
"Master Immortal, your summary makes a lot of sense."
The Li couple agreed.
The group chatted for a long time, with Chen Changsheng, Youlan, and others joining in.
Chen Changsheng may look like a child who is not quite grown up, but he actually has a lifespan of ten thousand years.
They are immortal, yet their bodies continue to grow.
Ordinary people typically only need a dozen or so years to fully develop.
The immortal race takes much longer, requiring fifty to sixty thousand years to fully develop.
The Li couple had weathered faces and spoke in aged voices.
In fact, the Li couple look to be only eighteen years old; they look exactly the same as when they got married.
In the words of the Li couple, time has left no marks on their bodies, but it has left too many marks on their hearts.
"Immortal Master, if you would not mind, I hope you will stay in our Changsheng Town to teach. I want to become stronger and I don't want to lose the people around me."
Chen Changsheng's eyes reddened.
There are many people in Changsheng Town who are just like Chen Changsheng.
They have no parents, no relatives or children, they are all alone.
The immortal race gained immortality, but lost everything.
Even in the current Changsheng Town, people still disappear from time to time.
"Please, Master."
Youlan, Youming, and others also sought help from Han Feng.
"We hope that the Immortal Master can teach these children, so that at least they have a glimmer of hope, unlike us who have given up all hope."
Uncle Li sighed.
"Your Excellency only needs to occasionally impart some immortal techniques; it won't take up much of your time."
Aunt Li also offered her advice.
Many people in Changsheng Town are listless and live day by day.
Because no one can guarantee that if some powerful forces come to plunder, they won't be the next one to be plundered.
As people who had been through similar experiences, they knew that Chen Changsheng and the others' efforts were futile.
Many people in the Longevity Clan have wanted to cultivate the Dao and become cultivators.
These people all failed and were unable to become monks.
The two helped Chen Changsheng, Youlan, and the others, and spoke to Han Feng to stay.
They didn't think Chen Changsheng, Youlan, and the others could succeed; they just didn't want them to lose hope.
Those who have lost hope live like them, leading a life of the walking dead.
“You should know that no matter what methods I teach you, you will not be able to practice them.”
Han Feng said.
"I know."
Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "It's up to the Immortal Master to teach us. Whether we can learn it or not has nothing to do with the Immortal Master."
"Alright then, I'll teach you."
Han Feng wants to comprehend the Great Dao of Immortality, so he needs to stay here for a while.
The origins of the Great Dao are diverse; some are born innately, while others are born later in life.
The path to immortality has never existed in the world before, and Han Feng can only comprehend it through his own efforts.
The advantage is that Han Feng comprehends the Great Dao of Immortality, and as the first person to comprehend it, he will be very powerful.
He originally intended to come to the Southern Region to collect Dao Jade.
He's currently unfamiliar with the area in the south, so there's no need to rush.
The people of Changsheng Town were very happy, especially Chen Changsheng, Youlan, and their group.
Li Pu left Changsheng, but they found a new teacher.
Han Feng believed that since Chen Changsheng and the others were immortal, their vitality must be extremely strong.
So the first thing that came to his mind was the Great Way of Life.
Chen Changsheng, Youlan, and others are very likely to succeed in cultivating the Great Dao of Longevity.
Han Feng patiently taught Chen Changsheng, Youlan, and others the Dao techniques, hoping they could use their own powerful life force to successfully establish their foundations.
His experiment soon failed; he was unable to establish a foundation using the Great Dao of Life.
Chen Changsheng, Youlan, and others have very special physiques. Even though he used the Great Dao of Life to help them successfully establish their foundations.
After only one day, these people returned to their original state.
"I just successfully established my foundation yesterday, but my cultivation level has dropped back down today."
"We are indeed not suited for cultivation; all our efforts to cultivate are in vain."
"I felt I had misunderstood Master Han. He used his great supernatural powers to help us build our foundation, but I didn't expect that we would be back to normal the next day."
...
After spending this time together, everyone has become quite familiar with Han Feng.
Having worked with many teachers, they could naturally discern the strength or weakness of a teacher.
Han Feng gave them the impression of being very strong, much stronger than Li Pu and the others.
Chen Changsheng and others discussed it privately and felt that Han Feng's strength ranked very high among the many powerful figures in the Immortal Dynasty.
The people were both afraid and happy about this possible outcome.
The better Han Feng's cultivation level and the more methods he has, the higher the chances it will be for Chen Changsheng and Youlan to succeed in their cultivation.
I'm afraid that even Li Pu couldn't be kept in Changsheng Town, let alone Han Feng, who has an even higher level of cultivation.
"I'm sorry, Master."
Chen Changsheng apologized.
Han Feng laughed and said, "You don't need to apologize to me. This wasn't intentional; it was caused by your own bodies."
"But..."
Chen Changsheng and the others still felt guilty, as they had let Han Feng down.
“You don’t need to feel guilty. I didn’t expect to succeed on the first try. After all, you’ve worked so hard for so long and still haven’t succeeded. It’s too childish for you to succeed as soon as I arrived in Changsheng Town.”
Han Feng waved his hand and said.
Chen Changsheng, Youlan, and the others were deeply moved. It was truly rare to find a teacher with such a good temper as Han Feng.
However, they would prefer that Han Feng blame them, as that would make them feel better and less guilty.
P.S.: I'm experiencing some writer's block; I'll resume three chapters tomorrow.
