Huqian Mountain Man was speechless,
"What do we do?"
"Just guess blindly."
Chen Xuantian took out a copper coin, held it in his hand, and tossed it into the air,
"With all my lifelong learning! Including all the levels Iāve cleared and the main lines Iāve pushed forward! I guess this place is the Void Illusion Realm! Is it or isnāt it!"
Heavenly balance and earthly load, it hit.
Huqian Mountain Man froze, shocked!
"What! The Void! How could it be!"
Chen Xuantian explained,
"Legend has it that the Ancient Taoist Sect developed the Divinity Transformation and Void Returning method to traverse the void, allowing the Primordial Spirit to be immersed in a mystical illusion realm, connecting the Primordial Spirit Illusion Realm of all Immortal Gods Dao Masters, as a way to pass time while traversing the void, known as Great Void."
Huqian Mountain Man was speechless,
"I know what Great Void is, this method has long been lost, and it wasnāt for passing time but for discussing Dao... Well, please continue..."
Chen Xuantian shrugged,
"What is there to continue, although Great Void is lost, later the Immortal Palace could still replicate the Second Void.
Nowadays, ancient Void secret realms and painted Heavenly Lands can often be found everywhere.
In this light, Void Returning method still exists, Realm of Void still exists. What I see today, isnāt this place like the legend, able to connect our Primordial Spirits into the Void Illusion Realm?
Unfortunately, my understanding of Dao is incomplete, and I donāt know the creation principles of the Realm of Void, nor the way to pass through.
Please enlighten me, Fellow Daoist."
Huqian Mountain Man was silent for a moment, nodded slowly,
"If it is truly as you say, this place is the Realm of Void, then within the void there must be Non-Material."
"What? Garbage?"
Sure enough, among three people there must be a teacher, as soon as three gathered, someone provided intelligence that Chen Xuantian had never heard of, completely ignorant.
"Iād like to hear more, what is garbage?"
Chen Xuantian couldnāt help but glance at Paozi and Xiong.
Huqian Mountain Man rolled his eyes,
"Not garbage, Non-Material, itās an object yet not an object. For instance, a pot, it looks like a pot, feels like a pot, weighs like a pot, but itās not... can you understand?"
"Oh~~ I see... but no, could you give me an example."
"..."
Huqian Mountain Man thought for a moment and decided to try giving an example,
"Hmm, alright, once upon a time, there was a pot..."
"How long ago is once upon a time? And why a pot again? Donāt you have other examples?"
"Hmm, because that pot is quite famous... Stop interrupting!"
Then Huqian Mountain Man seemed to fall into some kind of reminiscence,
"Well, it was around two thousand, hmm, three thousand? Anyway, at that time the Divine Lord shattered the void. It was the era of Mystic Sect and Divine Sect vying for supremacy.
Yet, the Divine Lord was a genius born in heaven, like a comet rushing through the sky, suddenly ascending, truly amazing. But also because he was too dazzling, carrying the weight of it all, when he ascended, Divine Sect couldnāt complete the regime change, and after experiencing a bloody battle with Immortal Palace, both sides were severely weakened, leaving barely anyone worthwhile besides the Ten Absolutes.
Thus, our Mystic Sect calculated the calamity was over, reopened the Mountain Gate, making a comeback. Because of this, I could join Hutong Mountain to seek Dao, at that time still in Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining. One day, I heard from my senior brother, an anomaly had occurred in the Jianghu: an Immortal Lord was ambushed, his cultivation severely declined, fell from Feather Transformation Immortal to mortal. Itās said that upon investigation, it was due to that pot, which was used for cooking."
Alas, Non-Material, mostly such inexplicable, illogical things..."
Chen Xuantian listened so intently his jaw almost dropped, couldnāt help but look at him with the expression of seeing a fool,
"What!? An Immortal Lord? Even Feather Transformation Immortal can fall?? And fell all the way! Fell to mortal!?
Because he ate food cooked in a pot? Why not say he got beaten by the pot!
Are you kidding me? Is it some broken Dao divine pot? Or did the Immortal Lord just have a change of heart, wanting to reincarnate? Hopefully, itās not simply a case of mistaken identity!"
Huqian Mountain Man also looked at him with an expression that said, "I didnāt want to be seen as a fool either."
Cloud Deer chimed in,
"Oh, Iāve heard that from Senior Brother too, itās quite famous. For a period, everyone didnāt cook with pots, they fasted."
Ah Xiong, "I havenāt heard of it..."
Cloud Deer gestured, "At that time you were still young, only this big."
Ah Xiong, "Oh, that was really small then."
"You guys stop... Wait!"
Suddenly Chen Xuantian realized something was off, stared at Cloud Deer.
"Who did you say you heard it from? True Monarch Cang Bi? Three thousand years ago?"
Cloud Deer explained,
"Oh, no, it was from Senior Brotherās Senior Brother. Back then, Senior Brother had already reincarnated, it was the Grand Senior Brother who took care of me."
Oh, I see, Senior Brotherās Senior Brother is... Wait! Thereās something wrong with this Paozi!
