"Yeah, I already know it all."
The old fortune teller nodded.
"Old Long told me everything that happened at Kunyu Gate, including the teleportation array."
"Have you found the teleportation array?"
Xiao Chen asked hurriedly.
"No."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"No?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"Even you can't find it? Is there a teleportation array in Kunyu Mountain?"
"It's hard to say. Some teleportation arrays are one-way. If they are not activated, they cannot be found."
The old fortune teller explained.
"But what is certain is that there are teleportation coordinates in Kunyu Mountain. There is a high probability that there is a teleportation array there."
"So there is a teleportation array, but we haven't found it yet?"
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette.
"Is it true that a big shot from the neutral faction is going to be teleported here?"
"Probably. I've been busy looking for the essence of the five elements recently and haven't paid attention to these."
The old fortune teller said casually.
"Even if someone comes, they won't be too powerful..."
"Are you sure? Didn't the Seventh Patriarch come here with the Sun and Moon Stone?"
Xiao Chen was a little worried.
"The reason he has been able to hide until now is not only because of the Sun and Moon Stones, but also because of many other factors, such as rarely leaving the Sun and Moon Altar."
The old fortune teller explained.
"The Sun and Moon Altar is an independent space. He can hide in it and circumvent the rules of heaven and earth to the greatest extent..."
"In other words, even if the Seventh Patriarch comes, he won't dare to wander around casually?"
Xiao Chen understood.
“No wonder even the people from the Sun Moon Sect don’t understand him…”
"In addition to being worried about the rules of heaven and earth, he was also afraid of being exposed, so he hid it very well..."
The old fortune teller said.
"So, the existence of the Seven Patriarchs is an isolated case."
"Afraid of being exposed?"
Xiao Chen was startled and looked at the old fortune teller.
"Afraid of being discovered by you?"
"you guess."
The old fortune teller gave a mysterious smile.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless.
"Old fortune teller, with my current strength, what can't I know?"
"It's not impossible. What do you want to know?"
The old fortune teller thought for a moment and said.
"Who are you?"
Xiao Chen looked at the old fortune teller and asked.
"Which one are you asking about?"
The old fortune teller asked back.
"Well, you have many identities?"
Xiao Chen was surprised.
"yes."
The old fortune teller nodded.
"Yes, I heard that you used to be a national teacher?"
Xiao Chen looked strange.
"That's just something I did out of boredom, just for fun."
The old fortune teller took a sip of tea.
"Forget it. Since we are talking about the Seventh Patriarch, let me tell you my identity. Some people call me the 'Boundary Guardian'."
"Boundary Keeper? What do you mean?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"As the name suggests, the person who protects this world."
The old fortune teller’s way.
"Isn't it said that the Dragon Emperor is the protector of China? And I am the one who protects this world."
"Protect this world?"
Hearing the old fortune teller's words, Xiao Chen was both surprised and enlightened.
If the old fortune teller is the real guardian, then many things make sense.
He had had such speculation before, including his conversation with Old Long, which made him doubt it.
"You don't seem... very surprised?"
The old fortune teller asked with a smile.
"I have made such a guess."
Xiao Chen replied.
"Yeah, I think so too, that's why I told you."
The old fortune teller nodded.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. So you said that because you thought I guessed that?
"What is your relationship with the Dragon Emperor?"
"It's quite complicated and can't be explained in a few words, but the Dragon Emperor is not my subordinate."
The old fortune teller thought for a moment and said.
"We are all guardians, but my mission is greater... The Dragon Emperors have been protecting China from generation to generation, and I..."
"You have never died and have been protecting the entire world?"
Xiao Chen interrupted the old fortune teller and asked excitedly.
"Well, it's not that exaggerated. I just lived a little longer, but I'm not immortal."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"I am the guardian of this generation, and you are the guardian of the next generation."
"I am the next generation of boundary guardian?"
Xiao Chen was surprised.
"Who said that?"
"I said so."
The old fortune teller said this, pointing to the bone ring.
"This is the inheritance of Emperor Fuxi, and our lineage also comes from Emperor Fuxi."
"Emperor Fuxi..."
Xiao Chen looked at the bone ring and was even more shocked.
He had never heard the old fortune teller say these things before.
The bone ring was given to him by an old fortune teller.
He always thought that this bone ring might have been obtained by chance by the old fortune teller, who then gave it to him.
Because when the old fortune teller gave it to him, he didn't say that this was some kind of Fuxi inheritance, he didn't even mention it.
It was only later that he realized that the bone ring held great opportunity.
"The bone ring belonged to you before? So you know a lot about the bone ring?"
Xiao Chen thought of something and asked.
"No, it didn't belong to anyone before. It was not until you received the inheritance from Emperor Fuxi that it became yours."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"I never got this opportunity in my entire life, and I gave up... Then, I met you, and I decided that you were the next guardian of the realm, so I gave you the bone ring."
"No, old fortune teller, from what I know about you, you are not someone who gives up easily."
Xiao Chen looked at the old fortune teller.
"Since you know that the bone ring has a chance, why would you give up so easily..."
"Hehe, because several generations of boundary guardians have not received the inheritance of Emperor Fuxi... The bone ring exists more as a token of trust, a token of inheritance for the boundary guardians, do you understand?"
The old fortune teller smiled with a hint of helplessness.
"I thought so too. When you were unable to practice, I encouraged you and said that the bone ring had a great opportunity... Who would have thought that you would actually get a great opportunity."
"What do you mean? You don't think I can get a great opportunity, but you said that to encourage me?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"That's about right."
The old fortune teller nodded.
"I have to give you some hope. You were very depressed at the time... To use a popular term now, you were very 'depressed'."
"No, it's not fashionable to be sad anymore."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"What's popular then?"
The old fortune teller was curious.
"Popularity lies flat, popularity breaks down..."
When Xiao Chen said this, he looked at the bone ring and felt not knowing whether to laugh or cry, but also a little emotional.
If the old fortune teller had not told him that the bone ring represented a great opportunity and that he could practice it once he got it, would he still have insisted?
The boy’s experience made him give up on himself for a time.
Especially since he can't practice cultivation, he is a waste.
The opportunity of the bone ring is equivalent to a beautiful expectation and also the hope of his life.
"I have to say, you are very lucky. For generations of boundary guardians to have passed down something as a token of inheritance, it has come to you... It really is a great opportunity."
Even the old fortune tellers are a little jealous.
"But it doesn't matter. The stronger you are, the less worries I will have..."
"Now that you mention it, I feel like I'm lucky."
Xiao Chen curled his lips.
"It's like you randomly give a lottery ticket to a poor person who has nowhere to go and tell him that this is the first prize... and then the first prize really comes out."
"It's different. I didn't give it to you casually. This bone ring represents inheritance, which is equivalent to the imperial seal... It's much better than your broken alliance leader token."
The old fortune teller corrected.
"Of course, it is much more powerful than the Imperial Seal. The bone ring is made of the finger bones of Emperor Fuxi. It is the legacy of the Emperor, but we have never obtained it."
"Even you, the old immortal, didn't get it, so it seems that I am better than you."
Xiao Chen was joking.
"Well, if you can build a divine foundation, then I admit that you are better than me..."
The old fortune teller nodded.
"Really? You're still trying to use tricks? Are you trying to motivate me?"
Xiao Chen curled his lips.
"But let's be serious. What are we, the boundary keepers, supposed to do?"
"You're getting into the role really quickly, who told you that you're a defender now?"
The old fortune teller looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"You haven't even established your foundation yet, how can you be qualified to be a boundary guardian?"
"Okay, then tell me first what it takes to be a guardian."
Xiao Chen said helplessly.
"Nothing much, just protecting this world... Before, it was very free, after all, there were few external threats, but it will be different from now on."
The old fortune teller looked at Xiao Chen with some sympathy.
"The world is undergoing a great change, the spiritual energy is reviving, and the Heaven Beyond Heaven is returning to take charge of this world... Therefore, as the next generation of boundary guardian, you will have a much greater mission to undertake."
"Sure enough, all the gifts bestowed by fate have been secretly marked with a price."
Xiao Chen stroked the bone ring and said.
"I have obtained the inheritance of the bone ring, but I also have to pay more... Old fortune teller, do you think that all this is under the control of Emperor Fuxi? The world changes, and the inheritance appears? Even if you chose someone else instead of me, you will get the inheritance at this point in time..."
Listening to Xiao Chen's words, the old fortune teller frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.
Is that so?
"If this is true, then Emperor Fuxi is really awesome."
Xiao Chen said again.
"Thousands of years of planning, what means."
“It’s hard to say.”
The old fortune teller shook his head slowly.
"What's wrong with that?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Nothing... nothing."
The old fortune teller came to his senses, but his heart was not at peace.
Is this really a plan that has been in place for thousands of years?
Everything happened at this point in time?
"How many people know your identity as a boundary guardian?"
Xiao Chen thought of something and asked again.
"Not many, but at some level, there are still people who know."
The old fortune teller suppressed many thoughts and said.
"Just like the Seventh Patriarch, he may not have known before, but I was able to find him, and I also wanted the Sun and Moon Stones, so he had a guess and knew my identity as a boundary guardian."
"If he knew, would he spread it?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"Why do you think I trapped them there?"
The old fortune teller smiled.
"They can't communicate with the outside world?"
Xiao Chen was surprised.
"Well, unless someone strong breaks my formation from outside..."
The old fortune teller nodded.
"What about the Seventh Patriarch? He can't break it from the inside?"
Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"He's still a little short."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"Especially without the Sun and Moon Stone, he is not much of a threat... If nothing unexpected happens, they will have to wait until the Holy Heaven Sect arrives before they can come out."
