Seeing that the portal was bidirectional, Shen Qian felt much more at ease.
Otherwise, given his current level of cultivation, even if he were to actually enter the universe, he wouldn't die from lack of oxygen in a short time, but he probably wouldn't last long either.
For some reason, Emperor Monkey did not follow, but Shen Qian had no time to investigate at the moment.
Would you like some tea?
Just then, a sudden sound startled...
He jumped a lot before sinking.
Although the sound wasn't loud, it was still quite eerie in such a deathly silent environment.
Shen Qian looked down and realized that there was a piece of land about a hundred meters in diameter at his feet.
This land has no roots or origin, it just drifts aimlessly in the starry sky, yet it is surprisingly harmonious.
On the land, there was a thatched hut, in front of which was a vegetable garden, and next to the garden was a pavilion. In front of the small table in the pavilion, two people sat upright.
On the left is a young man with deep and sharp features, whose handsomeness is in no way inferior to Shen Qian's; he is Shen Qian's clone.
At this moment, the clone seemed to be in a daze. Although its eyes were open and its aura was normal, it did not respond to Shen Qian at all.
Seated in the center was an old man dressed in plain clothes, with white beard and eyebrows, a kind face, and a harmless appearance.
He's the kind of person you'd definitely help cross the street if you met him there.
But at this moment, Shen Qian felt his hair stand on end.
Because this isn't a main street in Jingcheng, but rather resembles some distant region deep within the universe.
Even a fool could tell that this old man has a serious problem!
Most importantly, the Eye of Truth, which had been invincible since its enlightenment, failed for the second time.
The first time happened not long ago, when Shen Qian failed to discern what was inside the imperial procession that day; the second time was with this old man.
And for some reason, the old man looked strangely familiar.
But Shen Qian was quite certain that he had never seen him.
"May I ask who you are?"
Shen Qian realized that the invitation to drink tea came from this old man. He didn't want to appear too timid, but reason told him not to get too close.
"Heh, you were all talking about me not long ago, but now you don't recognize me in person?"
The old man smiled slightly.
"Are they talking about you?"
Shen Qian was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized something, his expression changed, and he exclaimed in shock, "You...you are Laozi?"
