Chapter 22 The Supreme Daoist



Accompanied by the sense of dislocation brought about by the change of space, Zhong Buwen stepped into the Langhuan blessed land.

It is exactly the same as what we see in the outside world. The blessed land in front of us is completely a world made up of books. Many book monsters are busy moving back and forth between the bookshelves with books in their hands.

Roads like overpasses crisscross between the huge bookshelves, stretching endlessly and it is impossible to see the end of the bookshelves at a glance.

On these bookshelves, there are mundane gossips from the folks, recipes of craftsmen, as well as extremely precious cultivation techniques, Buddhist scriptures and Taoist classics.

Rather than calling it a blessed land, it is better to regard it as an enormous library.

Although Shi Rao had read related books about the Langhuan Blessed Land in the Imperial Observatory's classics, this was his first time to actually come into contact with such a blessed land.

However, at this time Zhong Buwen had no intention of exploring the Langhuan blessed land. He came here for the mission of Emperor Xia and he had to find out where the cave in the Yunwu Mountains came from.

Not far away, a book demon in a dark green robe slowly flew towards Zhong Buwen and said:

"Are you here to pay your respects to Master Shuxian?"

Zhong Buwen nodded and said, "That's right."

"Then please follow me!"

“However, in order to conserve the spiritual energy in the Langhuan Blessed Land, most of the book immortals have fallen into a deep sleep, with only Gu Lao awake.

Whether Gu Lao is willing to see you depends on your own ability."

Zhong Buwen originally thought that the book demon would follow the road and fly to where the book fairy was, but at this moment the scene in front of him suddenly changed. The huge bookshelves around him began to rotate with a roar, and the entire Langhuan Blessed Land seemed to have turned into a huge Rubik's Cube.

The disordered space brings with it an indescribable oppression, and the ever-changing scenery makes people dizzy.

Finally, after the inverted space froze, Zhong Buwen saw a huge book standing in the void, with two large words written on the cover.

Suigu

When the space in front of him shifted to this place, the book demon in the dark green robe had disappeared, and only books and Zhong Buyen were left in the empty space.

"The 25th Chief Astronomical Observatory of Daxia, Zhong Buwen, pays homage to Senior Shuxian."

There was dead silence in the space.

"Zhong Buwen is here on behalf of Emperor Xia. He has something important to ask Senior Shuxian."

The silence was still as before, and there was no movement from the huge book.

Zhong Buwen's heart sank. Ever since he met the God of Langhuan Mountain, he realized that the Langhuan Blessed Land that once had an agreement with Daxia did not seem to be very friendly.

He didn't know the reason, but the most direct impact at the moment was that Shuxian did not make any response.

You should know that he spent a precious decree on this trip. There are only three in the entire Daxia treasury, which can drive the Langhuan Mountain God three times.

If it were during the period when the spiritual energy tide had fully returned, the complete recovery of the Langhuan Mountain God would be at least equivalent to three full-strength attacks by a True Lord in the Lianxu Realm.

Using such a precious decree just to seek information from the powerful earthly immortal, if it returns in vain, it will be a huge loss for the entire Daxia court.

With this thought in mind, Zhong Buwen gritted his teeth and spoke directly:

“Zhong Buwen came here this time to ask Senior Shuxian about the Yunwu Mountains.

Has there ever been an extremely powerful sect in the Yunwu Mountains?"

As soon as the words fell, the huge book in the void seemed to be suddenly awakened from a deep sleep, and the pages turned rapidly. The two words "Sui Gu" on the cover shone brightly at this moment.

An anxious old voice sounded in the void.

"What did you say?"

Zhong Bu Wen only saw a shadow flash before his eyes, and an old man with a goatee and wearing a black robe and holding a scripture appeared in front of him.

That old face was full of disbelief at this moment.

"How did you know that there was a powerful sect in the Cloud Mist Mountains?"

"Who told you about the Cloudy Mountains?" "What is your purpose in asking about this?"

Zhong Buwen finally couldn't maintain the indifference on his face. He didn't expect that just one sentence from him could shock the long-lived book immortal so much.

He began to realize that the origin of this earthly immortal might be more powerful than he had imagined.

Zhong Buwen did not dare to hide anything and immediately told the book fairy in front of him everything he knew.

“A few days ago, there was a disturbance in the cave in Daxia. My Imperial Astronomical Observatory locked the location of the Cloud and Mist Mountains and sent people to investigate.

The Taoist who had originally taken action, Zhaixing, had already locked onto the location of the cave heaven, but the cave heaven suddenly closed and disappeared into the void, and even he was severely injured by the residual power of the cave heaven's lord.

Emperor Xia believed that since this cave master appeared in the Cloud Mist Mountains, he must be connected to the Cloud Mist Mountains, so he sent me to ask Senior Shuxian. "

After listening to Zhong Buwen's explanation, the old-looking Shuxian stood there in a daze, his eyes dull.

"Earth Immortal?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"How could there be anyone alive in a place like that?"

"You know, there is a sky there."

The voice gradually became lower, and Shuxian suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhong Bu with gloomy eyes and asked:

"Boy, you are very lucky. If the information you provided was not of interest to me, I would never have gotten involved in the struggle between your Great Xia and those sects."

The Book Fairy waved his hand, and the huge book "Sui Gu" fell in front of Zhong Bu Wen.

"My name is Suigu, you can call me Gu Lao."

Zhong Buwen immediately bowed and said, "Junior greets Guru!"

Gu Lao ignored Zhong Buwen's respect and said to himself:

“I was born in the book ‘Sui Gu’. This book of immortals does not record skills or magical powers, but records history.

Nothing in this mundane world can escape the record of Suigu."

“Since I was born from Sui Gu, I have been studying the history recorded in it with great concentration, from the time when the Emperor of Man cut off the connection between heaven and earth to the current return of the spiritual energy tide, everything has been in my sight.

But Suigu is not omnipotent. I once explored the history of thousands of years ago and found the biggest loophole in Suigu. "

At this point, there was even a hint of fear in the ancient voice.

“Various information indicates that there once existed an extremely large sect in the Cloud and Mist Mountains ten thousand years ago.

Their disciples were famous throughout the world, and their magical powers were abruptly erased from historical records, leaving no information behind. "

Zhong Buwen's pupils suddenly contracted. The first thing he thought of was the Lord of the Cave Heaven who had appeared in the Cloud and Mist Mountains, so he quickly asked:

"Senior, is it true that there is no trace left of that huge sect?"

Gu Lao hesitated for a long time before he slowly spoke:

"Everything that exists will leave traces. Historical records are hidden in information. It is unrealistic for such a huge sect to completely erase its information.

The information about the important figures, cultivation methods, and magical powers of this hidden sect has indeed been completely erased, but among the many records about other sects, another legend was left behind. "

"What legend?"

"Ten thousand years ago, the sect that was wiped out had spread news to many major sects. Its founder used his lifespan to deduce that a supreme Taoist would be born and lead the sect to the peak.

This news caused panic among the sects all over the world. Many geniuses even chose to escape from the world and sleep forever, intending to avoid the era when this supreme Taoist was born.

The impact of this news was too great. Even though the information of the hidden sects had been completely erased, there were still related records left by other sects.

The earth immortal who appeared in the Cloud and Mist Mountains is very likely the Supreme Taoist from the hidden sect ten thousand years ago. He has lived from ten thousand years ago to the present day!"
