Chapter 21: The Ancient Heavenly Dao

The heavenly light in the Enlightenment Field was vast. Fang Ruoyao walked into it, and then her eyes trembled.

She thought Chu He, who had sensed the Little Little Tian Shu, was standing at the edge of the Enlightenment Field, holding his heart, as if he had been extremely wounded.

That wealthy young lady Lu Qingqiu was pinching the corner of her skirt, biting her thin lips lightly, her eyes full of complex expressions.

The two people's gazes were directed at Seeing Ji You.

At this moment, Seeing Ji You was sitting in the west-leaning position in the field, heavenly light surging around his body, as if he had already entered a great mysterious realm, his brows slightly furrowed, and the profound light flickering.

It was this furrowing of brows that seemed to pierce people's hearts like a sharp sword.

Because if he had a dazed face, it would mean he hadn't seen anything, but this furrowing of brows meant he was learning, and he was still learning!

A fellow Daoist's daze can make me fall into a sound sleep, but a fellow Daoist's furrowed brows make me toss and turn in bed; this is the reality of the cultivation world!

"Seeing Ji You..."

"The person who sensed the Little Little Tian Shu is Seeing Ji You..."

Fang Ruoyao murmured, stunned in place.

Just at this moment, at the peak of Nishan, spiritual light suddenly flickered from two large halls hidden in the clouds and mist, rushing into the sky, swinging long fire tails.

The next moment, an old Daoist wearing a robe embroidered with gold thread and cloud patterns, and a middle-aged woman wearing a hairpin and an eight-fold skirt, appeared on the Enlightenment Platform.

Disciples immediately recognized the two as Zuo Qiuyang and You Yingqiu, the hall masters of the inner courtyard, and bowed one after another.

The Heavenly Tian Shuyuan has five sacred halls, namely Freedom, Auspiciousness, Longevity, Non-Dust, and No-Desire. Zuo Qiuyang is in charge of Freedom, and You Yingqiu is in charge of Auspiciousness.

They are in charge of the cultivation of inner courtyard disciples and will not easily come to the outer courtyard except for the entrance ceremony. Only when outer courtyard students sense the Little Little Tian Shu will they be attracted.

"How long?"

Ban Yangshu replied respectfully: "Three quarters of an hour already."

Zuo Qiuyang furrowed his brows: "When?"

"It is indeed three quarters of an hour."

You Yingqiu was slightly surprised and turned to look at Zuo Qiuyang.

Hall Master Zuo pondered for a moment and then said to Ban Yangshu: "When he sensed the Little Little Tian Shu, were you by his side?"

"Reporting to the Hall Master, this disciple was there."

"Tell me in detail."

Ban Yangshu told the story of Seeing Ji You sensing the Little Little Tian Shu in detail, and also said that although he was not in a Dao-seeking state, the heavenly light still fell with him.

After hearing this, Hall Master Zuo didn't have any expression, looked at each other with You Yingqiu, and both disappeared from the spot.

In the next breath, the two had returned to the peak of Nishan, entering the depths of the ten thousand hectares of clouds and sea.

"Sensing the Little Little Tian Shu has become extremely difficult in recent years. It has been a long time since any disciple could observe the book for so long."

"Hasn't Yan Shimei You noticed yet? Time is not the biggest problem, but the state."

Zuo Qiuyang put his wide sleeves behind his back, his brows deeply furrowed: "How can one sense the Little Little Tian Shu when not in a Dao-seeking state? Could it be that the Little Little Tian Shu came to sense him? This concerns the inheritance of the Dao lineage, and I always feel this is not a good thing."

You Yingqiu was about to open her mouth to discuss it with him, but before she could, she suddenly stopped her steps and bowed respectfully forward.

Zuo Qiuyang was slightly stunned and immediately bowed with her.

"Abbot Master."

On the Black Mountain Cliff facing the Sea of Forests and the Sea of Clouds, an old man was standing with his hands behind his back, his graying sleeves fluttering with the hurricane between the mountains.

This old man was the Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan who had been in the Approaching Immortal Realm for more than two hundred years but had never ascended.

You Yingqiu couldn't help but sniff slightly at this moment, smelling a scent of alcohol, and couldn't help but be a bit surprised: "Did Master drink?"

"A light sip from a small pot."

"Didn't you say you would never drink again?"

The old man looked at them with a smile: "What happened in the outer courtyard?"

Zuo Qiuyang immediately said: "An outer courtyard disciple sensed the Little Little Tian Shu while not in a Dao-seeking state. It is very strange. Yan Shimei and I were about to come and report it. Should we focus on monitoring him?"

"No need, no need. It's just sensing the Little Little Tian Shu, why make such a big fuss."

"Is it not strange to sense the Little Little Tian Shu while not in a Dao-seeking state?"

The old man stroked his long beard and burped: "I just called for the Little Little Tian Shu to manifest. That kid just has extremely good luck and caught the time when it was easiest to sense the Little Little Tian Shu."

Zuo Qiuyang suddenly realized: "No wonder it would be like this. It turns out it wasn't his ability, but Master's doing."

You Yingqiu frowned upon hearing this, thinking to herself that Master just said he was drinking heavily, so how did he say he called for the Little Little Tian Shu to manifest? Really strange.

Master is the human immortal who has lived the longest in the world. After his old friend passed away that year, he clearly said he would never drink again...

Seeing Ji You didn't know that the inner and outer courtyards were in chaos because of him.

At this moment, he was following a burst of immortal light, entering a dark, void-like place that was vast and empty.

After a long nothingness, he, in a state of spiritual sense, opened his eyes slightly and gradually saw everything in front of him clearly.

That was an endless high mountain standing in the wilderness, surrounded by ignorant darkness. The top of the mountain was intertwined with wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, and the weather was extremely chaotic, just like a completely disordered world.

And the evolution of the Heavenly Dao seemed to be right in front of his eyes.

Feeling the vastness and greatness in that madness, Seeing Ji You was deeply shocked.

That was a feeling that couldn't be described, striking his spiritual sense directly.

Heavenly Dao...

It turns out that what is recorded in the Little Little Tian Shu is the most ancient Heavenly Dao.

Because it is primitive and ancient, this is also the most powerful Heavenly Dao in the world.

However, just when he was deeply shocked, he caught a glimpse in a daze and realized that he was not alone.

Also at the foot of the mountain stood a woman wearing a red smoke and gold-embroidered flowing immortal skirt, with a pair of snow-white and delicate jade feet bare under the skirt, her long hair not tied up but scattered to her waist, also looking at the top of the mountain.

Seeming to notice someone behind her, the woman withdrew her gaze and turned around slowly.

Between her scattered hair was an exquisite and fair melon-shaped face, red lips thin and moist, willow brows long and thin, and under the curled eyelashes were a pair of eyes like deep, quiet lakes.

She was not very old, seemingly about the same age as Seeing Ji You, only the blood-red gauze skirt on her body set her off as cold, beautiful, and atmospheric.

Just when Seeing Ji You was a bit confused about the situation, those pink and delicate jade feet gently touched the ground.

And so, amidst the faint spiritual light, the woman's red skirt swayed slightly, and she landed lightly in front of him.

If it weren't for the state of spiritual sense, Seeing Ji You felt he should have been brushed by a fragrant wind.
