Seeing this, the cultivator nearby whispered, "This boy is Li Xiuchen, fourteen years old, with average aptitude. This girl is Liu Xiaoxiao, nine years old, with third-grade aptitude." He added, "Senior Brother Luo, I don't know what went wrong on this Thunder Road today. The difficulty has increased dramatically. If you hadn't arrived early, I'm afraid this little girl would have died here innocently."
Mount Taihua opened its gates once every ten years, but not every time it could recruit disciples. Although a third-grade physique wasn't as strong as those of the first or second grades, it still possessed greater potential for cultivation than the average person, and so, logically, one could enter Mount Taihua to cultivate.
Upon hearing this, Luo Jianqing glanced at the siblings with a carefree gaze. Then, he turned and said, "I just happened to be returning to the sect. I just happened to be there. You still need to carefully review the matter of Thunder Road. No more mistakes can be made."
The sound is like the music of heaven, with strings and jade colliding, low and pleasant.
The three men immediately nodded in response.
A moment later, Luo Jianqing flew away on his sword and disappeared in the Thunder Road in the blink of an eye.
After this departure, it seemed as if the entire world had returned to its original state, without that intimidating and oppressive aura.
Liu Xiaoxiao swallowed her saliva, pulled Li Xiuchen's sleeve, and said cautiously: "Brother Chen, that big sister is so beautiful. Immortals...are all immortals so beautiful?"
Li Xiuchen's face was as gloomy as water and he did not answer.
The girl didn't notice anything unusual about Li Xiuchen and continued, "Is that beautiful sister from Taihua Mountain? Brother Chen, we must join Taihua Mountain. She saved us, and we must thank her."
"Let's go." Li Xiuchen said in a cold tone.
Liu Xiaoxiao took a breath and said, "Brother Chen, you're grabbing me too hard. It hurts."
Li Xiuchen slowly released the girl's hand, turned to glance at the little girl beside him, and then continued walking forward. The girl had no idea what was going on. She muttered, "Has Brother Chen still not recovered?" and hurried to follow him.
——No! Everything is wrong!
The little girl would never know that her life should have ended here, blocking the lightning for her favorite brother Chen.
A peculiar occurrence on the Thunder Road made the path dramatically more difficult. Li Xiuchen, despite his ordinary physique, was nearly struck dead by lightning, but was saved by his childhood sweetheart, Liu Xiaoxiao. Liu Xiaoxiao's death left Li Xiuchen wailing in agony. This scene was witnessed by the cultivators of Mount Taihua, who decided to make an exception and admit this exceptional young man into the mountain gates.
——The above is the beginning of the plot of "Seeking Immortality".
Three years ago, Li Xiuchen wasn't even called Li Xiuchen yet. An unexpected accident caused him to travel to "Seeking Immortality." When he discovered he had traveled through time and space and become Li Xiuchen, he was overwhelmed with excitement.
Li Xiuchen! The protagonist of "Seeking Immortality"! Possessing an invincible cheat code! He's practically the Son of the Planes!
For three years, he lived his life according to his memory, and then brought his neighbor's sister Liu Xiaoxiao to participate in the trial of Taihua Mountain. He was ready to sacrifice this little girl so that he could enter the mountain gate.
But why is everything wrong now? What went wrong?
Why did Luo Jianqing appear now!
At this moment, the white-robed immortal who had been mistaken for "Big Sister" had already flown away from the Thunder Road and truly entered the gate of Mount Taihua. His fellow disciples greeted him warmly, and he gently responded to each one. A warm smile graced his handsome face, as beautiful as a woman, his complexion as bright and gentle as a spring flower.
However, after Luo Jianqing stepped into his room, he suddenly waved his sleeves and slammed the door shut.
The smile on his face disappeared in an instant. Luo Jianqing turned his head with cold eyes and looked at the desk not far away. He narrowed his eyes and a thick book quickly flew into his hands. On the cover of the book, two powerful and majestic characters were written:
Seeking Immortality
Luo Jianqing, the first disciple of Yuxiao Peak on Mount Taihua, was the last disciple of the foremost cultivator in the world of cultivation. Jealousy for his junior fellow disciple, Li Xiuchen, led him to betray his master and become a demonic leader. Years later, Luo Jianqing was hunted down by Li Xiuchen and his men. After a fierce battle lasting ten days and nights, Luo Jianqing met his end at the hands of Li Xiuchen's sword—a fitting and heartwarming death!
But now…
Luo Jianqing chuckled and raised the corners of his lips, looking at the two golden words "Seeking Immortality" on the book with an indifferent gaze.
"I, Luo Jianqing, am back."
