Chapter 921: Aiming for immortality

When it came to the main business, Beimingzi's expression became serious again.

He did not continue to exchange pleasantries with Su Xuan about the internal environment of the Yin-Yang School. For an expert like him, living in a broken house or living in an imperial palace made no difference; the only thing he sought was immortality.

"May I ask Your Excellency Xuantian, does the elixir of immortality truly exist?"

Hearing Beimingzi's question, Su Xuan was silent for a while and said softly: "You indeed came for immortality!"

Earlier, when Beimingzi said that sentence, he already had the answer in his heart. Now, as Beimingzi spoke again, it was considered confirmed.

Beimingzi did not hide it either, saying bluntly: "From ancient times to the present, the Daoist School has sought only two things: one is the Heavenly Dao, and the other is immortality. Among them, seeking the Heavenly Dao is only to prove immortality through the act of seeking the Dao."

"Now, having suddenly heard that Your Excellency Xuantian brought back the elixir of immortality, the entire Daoist School wants to know the truth of this matter!"

"This is the purpose of my coming here!"

Su Xuan's tone was somewhat strange: "Then you are likely to be disappointed. There is no such thing as an elixir of immortality in this world."

A trace of disappointment appeared in Beimingzi's eyes, and then he recovered. He sighed softly: "Indeed, it was just a rumor."

Although he did not know why the State of Qin did not refute the rumor, he chose to believe Su Xuan's words.

437 That was that there was no elixir of immortality in this world, and naturally, there was no such thing as immortality.

Was the thing the Daoist School had sought for many years ultimately a flower in the mirror and the moon in the water, all in vain?

Also, compared to the ethereal immortality, if one had that effort, it would be better to seek a method to break through to the Heaven-Man Realm.

The Yin-Yang School separated from the Daoist School, and the Sect Master, Your Excellency Xuantian, had already surpassed the Heaven-Man Realm. On the contrary, the Daoist School, because it was divided into the Heavenly and Human Sects and had been fighting endlessly for hundreds of years, had been marking time and had no progress.

Su Xuan was quietly silent for a while, and then asked Beimingzi: "In your opinion, does immortality achieved through external objects count as true immortality?"

Beimingzi raised his eyebrows and could not help but look up at Su Xuan.

He did not understand the meaning of Su Xuan's words.

Su Xuan realized this, so he did not continue to get to the bottom of this question with Beimingzi, and then changed the way of saying it: "In this world, there has never been an elixir of immortality. If there really were an elixir of immortality, why has no immortal person ever appeared throughout history? Although there is Peng Zu who is claimed to have lived for eight hundred years, this is just a legend; no one is sure whether it is true or false."

"That is indeed the logic!"

Beimingzi felt a little better after hearing this "comfort" from Su Xuan.

This time, he came here only because he heard that Su Xuan had brought back the elixir of immortality, and out of the pursuit of immortality, he came here to verify it with Su Xuan. At this moment, hearing Su Xuan's words, he realized that he had indeed not seen the facts clearly.

If there really were an elixir of immortality in the world, why had no one ever heard of an immortal person among so many people throughout history?

Not to mention anything else, if the true secret of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon were the elixir of immortality, then the person who left behind the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon should also have achieved immortality.

Although the reality was cruel, no matter what, this trip today was not in vain. At least he knew the truth of the rumor about the elixir of immortality. After returning, he could also cut off the delusions of some people in the Daoist School.

Not cultivating properly, and thinking all day about using external objects to seek immortality.

One must know that even the Heaven-Man Realm had not been reached; was immortality so easy to seek?

That's right, Beimingzi was talking about his own disciple, Chi Songzi.

As for Xiaoyaozi, because he was a person of the Human Sect, he could not control him, but Chi Songzi was different. He was quite old and had not yet broken through to the Heaven-Man Realm; it was truly shameful. On the contrary, Xiaomeng, at a young age, had shown extraordinary talent. Perhaps she could reach an unimaginable realm in the future and have hope of surpassing him, her teacher.

After many emotions flashed through his heart, Beimingzi said to Su Xuan: "Thank you for your guidance, Your Excellency Xuantian!"

Saying this, he prepared to take his leave and return to the Daoist School.

This was, after all, the headquarters of the Yin-Yang School. He, a person of the Daoist School, staying here all the time, always felt strange (aiee). As for Xiao Ling, let him go back by himself.

Although Xiao Yi was Xiao Ling's younger sister, the other party had already joined the Yin-Yang School after all. Beimingzi still did not like Xiao Ling to linger here too much.

Just as Beimingzi was about to leave, Su Xuan suddenly spoke again and said a sentence: "Although there is no elixir of immortality in this world, immortality is indeed real."

Beimingzi's footsteps as he was leaving stopped suddenly, and his body also trembled slightly involuntarily.

This sentence from Su Xuan made him truly shocked.

Immortality actually existed?

If someone else said this, Beimingzi would naturally not believe it, but the person who said this was Su Xuan.

Su Xuan, whose strength was profound and had already surpassed the Heaven-Man Realm, and who had cracked the secret of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon and personally went to the overseas immortal mountain on the Mirage, might know some things that ordinary people did not know.

Beimingzi turned around, took a deep breath, and then bowed and cupped his hands, saying to Su Xuan in a deep voice: "Please, Your Excellency Xuantian, offer your instruction!"

Su Xuan lowered his head, looked at the humble Beimingzi, and said leisurely: "How much do you know about ancient matters?"

"Ancient matters?"

Beimingzi raised his eyebrows and asked Su Xuan: "Which matters is Your Excellency Xuantian referring to?"

Su Xuan said: "About the matters of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden and Did Chi You!"

Beimingzi pondered for a while and said: "In the classics of my Daoist School, some ancient past events are indeed recorded. It is said that in ancient times, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden descended to the world and once taught Did Chi You. However, Did Chi You was tyrannical, so the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden turned to teach the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan. Finally, the two fought a decisive battle at Zhuolu, and the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan was better, and Did Chi You was defeated and died."

Su Xuan said: "Such a record is not wrong, but it is not detailed enough."

Beimingzi grasped that Su Xuan's words had a hidden meaning: "I would like to hear the details!"

Su Xuan did not hide it either and leisurely told a past event that many people knew, but only the Daoist School did not know.

Upon hearing that in ancient times, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden descended from the sky to forge a divine sword for Did Chi You, Did Chi You held the sword and slaughtered all living things, and later the Dragon God and the Mysterious Maiden helped the Yellow Emperor defeat Did Chi You, but Did Chi You did not die, but was sealed in the Abyss, reappeared in the world years ago by possessing Donghuang Taiyi, and was killed by him again at Loulan—Beimingzi could not be more shocked.

"How is it possible..."

If this passage had not come from Su Xuan's mouth, he would have found it very hard to imagine that such a thing truly existed.

Su Xuan said softly: "Whether you believe it or not, Donghuang Taiyi is indeed dead, and Did Chi You did indeed possess his body, reappear in the world, and was finally killed by me at Loulan."

"If it comes to the way of immortality, Did Chi You can actually be considered to have already achieved immortality!" ===== CHAPTER 923 =====
