Chapter 424: Successor of Tianji Sect
"How could this be?"
"It's ok that he practices the same technique as me, but his cultivation level is actually higher than mine?"
He Zhenghao was speechless for a while and suddenly fell into great doubt about life.
"This is a disaster..."
In an instant, many thoughts emerged in He Zhenghao's mind.
But in the end, he decided to go to Wanxian Island for shelter for a while.
Just when he was about to activate the teleportation array.
"I know you are hiding inside, why don't you dare come out to see me?" The other party's angry shout rang out again, as loud as thunder.
The entire Liuli Island seemed to be trembling at this shout.
He Zhenghao's face twitched, but he didn't dare to say anything, and just hurriedly opened the teleportation array.
Who would have thought that the man actually noticed his actions.
"Want to escape? Humph!"
A wave suddenly enveloped the sky above Liuli Island.
He Zhenghao was horrified to find that the Liuli Island teleportation array had lost contact with Wanxian Island.
"Space blockade?!"
Cold sweat instantly dripped down his forehead.
But in a flash, He Zhenghao reacted.
"No, I just don't know how the connection between the nodes of the teleportation array was temporarily affected..."
Just when he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But suddenly he discovered that the monk who suddenly came to him turned into a stream of light and rushed straight towards the island protection formation below.
He Zhenghao was delighted: "So you are a reckless man! My great formation of mountains, rivers and stars is not easy to deal with. Even if you have the Golden Core cultivation..."
Just as he was thinking this, something that shocked him happened.
The other party actually treated the formation as nothing and flew in so brazenly.
The flight route seems random, but it always goes through the nodes where the magic circle's protection is weakest.
And it happened at an extremely fast speed, in an instant, before He Zhenghao had time to react.
It fell right in front of him.
The man stared at him coldly, his eyes full of murderous intent: "You are the one who stole the skills of my sect?"
He Zhenghao's mind suddenly went blank.
He had no time to think about why the other party could break the mountain, river and star formation that he was so proud of so easily.
It was as if a terrifying murderous intent was tangible and enveloped him, and He Zhenghao's heart began to beat violently.
"Misunderstanding! It's definitely a misunderstanding!"
"Fellow Daoist, please don't do anything!"
Faced with the threat of death, He Zhenghao shouted loudly.
"Fellow Daoist?" The ferocity in the other party's eyes became even stronger.
"How dare you call Jindan Zhenren your fellow Taoist when you are only a foundation-building expert?"
"Are all the monks nowadays so ignorant of etiquette?"
A pressure that was much stronger than that of an ordinary Jindan cultivator suddenly emanated from him.
He Zhenghao suddenly felt as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders. His knees went weak and he almost fell to his knees on the spot.
He Zhenghao suddenly felt full of grievances.
Not to mention the Jindan cultivators, even if they are Yuanying cultivators, I, He Zhenghao, can be on par with them as fellow Taoists!
However, the villain was in front of him, and for the sake of his own life, He Zhenghao had to temporarily succumb to the opponent's force.
He Zhenghao forced out an ugly smile and said with some difficulty: "Misunderstanding, it's really a misunderstanding!"
"Senior, let's talk nicely!"
The other party glanced around with a cold gaze and temporarily withdrew his pressure.
"I ask, you answer!"
"If you lie to me..."
"die!"
He Zhenghao's heart skipped a beat when he heard what the other party said.
He kept nodding like a chick pecking at rice, showing that he understood.
"How did you get the "Secret of Sitting on the Mountain"?" the other party asked.
"It was an accidental discovery during my exploration of a cave when I was young. It is definitely not..."
Before He Zhenghao finished speaking, he heard another question from the other party.
"Cave? Where is it located? Why does it have our sect's inheritance?"
He Zhenhao quickly told the location and internal structure of the cave.
The other party narrowed his eyes and was silent for a moment.
Then he actually told some details about the interior of the cave and asked He Zhenghao whether it was true or not.
He Zhenhao was overjoyed and nodded quickly.
He Zhenghao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he realized that the other party's murderous intent was gradually subsiding.
Seeing that the other party seemed to be lost in memories, he bravely asked: "I see that your words and actions are different from those of ordinary people."
"I wonder if Senior has just woken up from his deep sleep?"
It’s no wonder that He Zhenghao would make such a guess.
Among the cultivators nowadays, who would still mention their sect?
Moreover, there have been cases of ancient monks awakening after sleeping for thousands of years.
He Zhenghao didn't find this very strange.
I just feel that I am really unlucky.
The other party did not admit it directly, but his expression became a little serious.
"I would like to ask you, what happened in these years?"
"Practicing a technique can lead to inexplicable sensations?"
"The world seems to have become different..."
He Zhenghao became more and more certain of his guess.
He immediately described in detail to him the events that had occurred in the Xuanhuang Realm after the Heavenly Venerable had passed on his teachings and the great catastrophe had come, as well as the current situation of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
The other party's face changed repeatedly when he heard this.
And through constant indirect questioning, He Zhenghao finally slowly understood the other party's identity.
His name is Li Fan, and he is an ancient cultivator of the Tianji Sect.
Once he fell into a deep sleep due to an accident.
After waking up, not only did his cultivation level regress back to the Jindan stage.
A feeling is emerging in my heart.
Li Fan, who didn't know what was going on, followed the location he sensed and came to Liuli Island.
And only after he found out that He Zhenghao, who was practicing "The Art of Sitting on the Mountain", was not a disciple of Tianji Sect, did he question her just now.
"How did you recognize that I was not a disciple of Tianji Sect?"
Although He Zhenghao lamented his bad luck in his heart, he still had some doubts.
Li Fan sneered: "After a thousand years, have the monks become so ignorant?"
"Your question is like asking why a cultivator can tell at a glance that a demon beast is not a human."
"I am a cultivator of the Tianji Sect, and we believe in the unity of man and nature. All the techniques in the sect are closely related to Qi. Naturally, I have a secret technique to distinguish them."
He Zhenghao's old face turned slightly red when he heard the other party's disdainful tone.
Just as he was about to say something else, he saw Li Fan suddenly staring at him.
"Senior, you..." He Zhenghao couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
"How long have you been practicing the 'Mountain Sitting Art'?" Li Fan asked.
He Zhenghao was slightly stunned: "It has been more than a hundred years..."
"The Mountain Sitting Technique is such a magical skill. How come you have only just established your foundation after practicing it for so long?"
Li Fan looked at He Zhenghao suspiciously: "Could it be that you were also injured and fell down?"
When He Zhenghao heard this, his face suddenly turned red.
"Senior, you may not know this Mountain Sitting Technique..."
He was about to defend himself, but suddenly he remembered that this person was the ancestor of the "Sitting Mountain Secret".
I was speechless for a moment.
Hesitated and stood there.
But it was Li Fan who rescued him.
He seemed to remember something, and suddenly realized: "That's right, you don't know how to sense the secrets of heaven. No wonder you are so slow in cultivation."
"Just relying on [sitting on the mountain] without [sitting on the immortal] is so difficult!"
