Li Nianfan looked at Nannan and asked in surprise, "Nannan wants to cultivate immortality?"

"Yes."

Nannan nodded seriously, clenched her fist and said, "I want to fight monsters! Protect everyone!"

"Hahaha, you have ambition! If you can join the immortal cultivation sect, then brother will give you a gift." Li Nianfan laughed.

This girl was captured by a monster some time ago, and it was obvious that she remembered it in her heart.

"Really?" Nannan's eyes suddenly brightened, and she nodded firmly repeatedly, stretched out her finger and said, "Hook."

Li Nianfan laughed dumbly, "Okay, hook!"

"Brother Nianfan, I also want to cultivate immortality."

"And me, I want to go too!"

The other children also spoke up.

"Oh? What are you doing this for?" Li Nianfan asked curiously.

"I want to see Sun Wukong!"

"I want to fly."

"I want to make a scene in the Heavenly Palace!"

The children were talking at once, but what they said was hilarious.

Li Nianfan couldn't help but laugh secretly. It seemed that the "Journey to the West" he told had a great influence on them, and the children became fans of cultivating immortals.

This was just like in the previous life, when various martial arts novels were written to make everyone have a martial arts dream in their hearts.

However, this dream was also accompanied by great setbacks and challenges, and it was unknown how many people would be able to achieve the right result in the end.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, "Then you must work hard! Strive to join the sect as soon as possible and become an immortal cultivator."

After saying goodbye to everyone, Li Nianfan went straight to the market in Luoxian City and came to the fish stall with ease.

"Mr. Li." The stall owner was immediately enthusiastic when he saw that it was Li Nianfan. "I haven't seen you buy fish in a long time."

Li Nianfan said, "Recently, I have been relying on hunting and eating wild game for a while."

"You are particular!"

The stall owner gave Li Nianfan a thumbs up and then said, "Mr. Li, which fish do

you like?" "Stall owner, the fish here are not as good as before." Li Nianfan shook his head and couldn't help but say, "The fish are smaller, and there are fewer species."

"Oh, don't mention it."

The stall owner sighed, "There is a monster in Jingyue Lake, so I can only go to other places to fish, and the quality is naturally not as good as that of Jingyue Lake."

Li Nianfan asked curiously, "There is a monster, and no one cares?"

"I can't help it. There are too many monsters recently. It's a mess. I feel like it's a troubled time." The stall owner sighed, feeling like he was worrying about the world first.

Li Nianfan couldn't help but think of the mountains and forests. It hasn't been peaceful recently.

"I don't know when it will be calmed down. This situation is really unsettling." Li Nianfan couldn't help but sigh.

The only bad thing about living in the world of immortal cultivation is that you have to be on guard against being worried about monsters all the time.

It's not easy to be a mortal!

Daji, who was following Li Nianfan, was slightly moved, and made up her mind in her heart, "It seems that I have to hurry up and urge my sister to calm this matter down as soon as possible so that I can share the worries for the master."

Li Nianfan specially asked the stall owner to pick a few more big fish to serve as food for the next few days. He was not going to go out before Shengyuan Festival.

Monsters have been rampant recently, and Daji and I are both mortals. For the sake of our lives, it is better to stay out of the house.

...

The Izumo Mountains stretch for thousands of miles.

There are many cliffs, weeds and sparse trees, so it is usually deserted, and only some mountain spirits and monsters are active.

However, the Izumo Mountains are particularly lively today.

In the sky, escape lights passed by one after another, heading straight to the depths of the mountains.

The targets of these escape lights are obviously the same, and they all stopped at the mouth of a cliff.

The terrain here is a bit peculiar. The mountains are undulating, forming a wave-like posture. Many cliffs are connected in a line, and the rocks are protruding, like a huge monster with its mouth wide open, ready to choose someone to eat.

Among these cliffs, there is one that stands out.

The rocks below this cliff have fallen off, revealing the smooth inner wall, which flashes with light from time to time, and you can tell at a glance that it is extraordinary.

If it were a mortal, they wouldn't even be qualified to pass it, but for a cultivator, this cliff is naturally nothing.

They jumped down directly, suspended in the air, facing the smooth stone wall, and looked at it carefully.

Old Man Sun and Lin Mufeng were naturally among them.

"This should be a door!" Old Man Sun guessed.

"Yes, it should be the entrance to the secret realm." Lin Mufeng nodded, looking around with a serious look.

Although few people knew about the secret realm, more than ten people gathered together after calling their friends, and they were

all very strong. One of the white-haired old men said, "Fellow Taoists, it is not easy to cultivate immortality. This time, entering the secret realm depends on chance. Don't ruin the relationship. What do you think?"

"I agree!" "I

agree!"

Everyone nodded in response.

Old Man Sun introduced Lin Mufeng, "He is Old Man Qingyang, who has achieved the great success of the Spirit Severing Stage and is quite prestigious in the area. He was the first to discover this secret realm."

Lin Mufeng nodded, "If that's true, it would save a lot of trouble."

Old Man Qingyang nodded to everyone in a friendly manner, casually pinched the spell with both hands, and pointed to the stone wall.

Buzz!

Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the stone wall actually emitted a hazy light, and then gradually began to tremble.

The light was getting brighter and brighter, but it didn't open. Instead, it formed a special pattern on the stone wall. Various lines crisscrossed vertically and horizontally, and there were stars and dots between the intersections. It was obviously a chess game.

Everyone's eyes were fixed, looking straight at the stone door, with a gleam in their eyes, and they all showed thoughtful expressions.

Lin Mufeng's face was normal at first, but when he saw the chess game, he changed color.

His pupils shrank into needles, and the blood almost stopped flowing. A tingling feeling arose from the bottom of his heart, rushing straight to the top of his head, and his whole body was cold!

This, this, this is...

the unfinished game in Mr. Li's inner courtyard? !

At this moment, he only felt his scalp tingling, almost like it was about to explode.

But... how is this possible? !

A huge wave of turmoil rose in his heart, and he could hardly believe what he saw.

So, it was not a coincidence that he could see that endgame, but that Master Li had deliberately set it up for him to see!

Horrible!

Unbelievable!

It turned out that Master Li had already paved the way for me!

He secretly rejoiced.

Fortunately, he understood Master Li's various hints and followed Old Man Sun to this secret place. Otherwise, if he failed Master Li's expectations, he would probably never be able to make a breakthrough in this life!

At this time, one of the monks laughed and looked at the old man Qingyang jokingly, "Old man Qingyang, no wonder you spread the news, you want everyone to come and help you crack this chess game?"

"To be honest, it is true." Old man Qingyang nodded very calmly and admitted, "I have tried to crack this chess game, but it was in vain. The person who set up this chess game has a superb understanding of the way of chess, and has integrated the way into chess. His method is really amazing."

His frank admission made it difficult for everyone to say anything. They asked themselves if they would do the same if they encountered this situation.

Everyone's face became solemn, staring at the chess game in doubt.

Even Old Man Qingyang felt that it was unfathomable, so this chess game must be extremely extraordinary.

At this time, Lin Mufeng had suppressed his inner shock, and his face was calm, watching coldly from the side.

This old man Qingyang was not as friendly as he seemed. The cultivation of the more than ten people he invited was not as good as his!

Was it a coincidence? I'm afraid not!
