"Uh...haha."
The old Taoist smiled awkwardly, but soon recovered and said quickly: "Of course, everyone in the ancient fairyland knows that I, Taoist Hongyi, am famous for my warm heart."
"I wonder what question do you want to ask me, my friend?"
"We met by chance, this is fate. If I knew, I would tell you everything I know."
The old Taoist said very enthusiastically that he didn't need to ask about Ye Qiu's specific origins.
After all, a young and outstanding boy like this must have a terrifying background. Without a huge background support, it would be impossible for him to ascend so quickly.
What's more, the old Taoist could feel the immortal aura on Ye Qiu, which was something that only an Immortal King could possess.
It can be seen that this young man is very extraordinary.
Moreover, he keenly noticed that Ye Qiu was not like the other ascenders who were aloof and arrogant, always thinking themselves awesome and thinking they could walk sideways in this cannibalistic world just because they had just arrived.
He is very cautious and careful in his actions. It is obvious that he is a veteran.
The old Taoist was very good at judging people. After just one glance, he gave up his initial idea and decided to become an enthusiastic senior, which could be considered as making a good connection.
Ye Qiu also keenly noticed the change in the old Taoist's mind, smiled slightly, and then asked: "Excuse me, senior, I just felt a strange and familiar breath here, so I stayed here.
I wonder what this ruin was originally? What happened here?
Ye Qiu did not rush to ask other questions, but first asked about the mystery of the ruins in front of him.
The old Taoist was shocked when he heard this. He looked back at the surroundings and said carefully, "My friend, you have asked the right person this question."
"Actually! The void we are in now is a paradise that once existed here in ancient times."
"Piaomiao Xiantong!"
"Piaomiao Xiantong?"
Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment. In his memory, this name appeared in his reincarnation simulation, and that was just a small sect in the lower realm.
"Alas, this trace is not from that sect."
As if realizing that Ye Qiu had misunderstood, the old Taoist said, "This Piaomiao Xianzong! To be exact, it is not a sect, but a paradise."
"It was one of the ten great caves in the ancient fairyland. Many ancient immortals and sages once lived here. They were blessed with the destiny of heaven and earth and lived in seclusion here. It was more like a paradise for immortals."
“Hence, it is also called Piaomiao Xianzong! Here, immortals can be seen everywhere. Even if you see a farmer on the road, he could be an ancient giant who lives in seclusion here.”
Hearing this, Ye Qiu was shocked.
"Good fellow! What kind of hobbies do these ancient immortals have? Why do they all like to hide from the world and hide their names?"
"Or is there some unspeakable secret hidden in this ethereal fairyland?"
The old Taoist smiled slightly and looked at Ye Qiu with a slightly evil smile, as if to say, "You little brat, isn't it easy for me to control you?"
Are you scared?
Hehe, who wouldn’t be shocked to hear about the past that once existed here?
"Haha, my friend, you don't know."
"This ethereal fairyland is a blessed land formed by the luck of heaven and earth during the chaos of the ancient fairyland. It is one of the ten great caves in the ancient fairyland."
"There is a dragon vein hidden underground! Practicing here can be thousands of times better than in the outside world."
"So! This Piaomiao Fairyland is so rare! Ordinary people don't have the qualifications to enter here."
After listening to the old Taoist's explanation, Ye Qiu understood.
The so-called Piaomiao Fairyland is actually more like a residential area for the rich in modern society. If your identity and assets do not match, you have no qualifications to integrate into this circle.
Even if you try to get close to them, they won't even look at you, will look down on you, and some with bad tempers may even attack you.
Therefore, this place is really not accessible to ordinary people.
"What happened later? Why did Piaomiao Xianzong fall into decline? What happened here? Where did those hermits who once lived here go?"
As soon as this question came out, the old Taoist's face suddenly darkened, and he was obviously a little afraid to answer.
After all, there are several taboos in it. Once mentioned, he may have to pay the price for it.
Therefore, he avoided these taboos intentionally or unintentionally, and replied: "This, I am not too sure! After all, there were so many catastrophes that broke out in the ancient times of the immortals, and it might be caused by some catastrophe."
"Haha, my friend! I see that you are gifted with extraordinary talent and excellent physique. You will definitely become a great talent in the future. I can't bear to see you go astray, so I want to give you some advice."
“Don’t go in!”
When he said the last three words, the old Taoist's expression became extremely serious, even a little threatening.
Even a money-loving old man like him did not dare to explore the Piaomiao Fairyland ruins, which shows how terrible the threat contained there is.
Hearing this, Ye Qiu nodded. He was not a fool and could sense the weirdness inside as well as the message revealed in the old Taoist's words.
Before fully understanding the truth of the matter, you really can't enter this ethereal fairyland.
"Thank you for your advice, senior."
Ye Qiu first expressed his gratitude, and then wanted to say something, but the old Taoist suddenly said: "Don't be afraid of you laughing at me, I dig graves... well, I have been looking for treasures for so many years, and I have been into all kinds of dragon pools and tiger caves, but this place is a forbidden place that I dare not set foot in my whole life."
The corner of Ye Qiu's mouth twitched. Obviously, when mentioning this ethereal fairyland, the old Taoist's emotions became a little unstable, and he seemed to have revealed some secret information.
Grave digging?
Good job.
It seems that this old man in front of me who looks like a Taoist priest is not doing anything human?
No wonder Ye Qiu had a vulgar feeling when he saw him for the first time. He didn’t look like a good person at first glance.
It's a good disguise.
If it weren't for his slip of the tongue, Ye Qiu really wouldn't have known what he did specifically.
However, although Ye Qiu guessed it, he did not point it out. He pretended not to hear the two key words with a very sincere expression.
"Thank you for the reminder, I will keep it in mind."
"Hey, this kid is teachable."
Seeing Ye Qiu's sincere look, the old Taoist smiled with relief.
It seems that he slipped up and spoke too quickly just now, and Ye Qiu didn't notice the two words he said, so his identity should not have been exposed.
I couldn't help but feel relieved.
As expected, no matter how outstanding a person is, he or she will sometimes be careless.
No one is perfect and it is inevitable that there are some shortcomings, even geniuses are no exception.
The old Taoist couldn't help but despise Ye Qiu for a while. When he was about to say something, he suddenly noticed that the void not far away was twisted.
"Someone is coming! Let's go..."
The old Taoist said something in an instant, and Ye Qiu came back to his senses. When he turned around, the old man had already run dozens of miles away.
“Oh shit!”
"I love it so much! Is it so stable?"
Ye Qiu was shocked.
There are two words that stand out about this old Taoist: steady.
If there is any sign of trouble, they will run away immediately and never give the other party any chance.
Regardless of whether the other party is hostile or not, he will never show up until he is completely sure that the other party is friendly.
My God! There are so many strange things in this world, and on the first day of my ascension, I encountered a big strange thing.
