Chapter 167: The Immortal on Earth Returns to Immortality

Cairo, Egypt.

On top of the Pyramid of Khufu, a man stood on the top of the tower, with a mysterious light shining between his eyebrows, scanning the pagoda that was more than 140 meters high.

All the information about the pagoda emerged in my mind.

"The Spirit Gathering Formation... must have been left behind by ancient cultivators."

Liang Yue discovered that the tower here actually served as a spirit gathering formation. Since there was no spiritual energy in the world, it looked a bit dilapidated, but the main body of the formation did not seem to have changed much.

"Look again."

After that, Liang Yue settled down here.

This place is now the territory of the Arab Empire. These believers have no interest in ancient buildings, so no one disturbs them.

Occasionally, there is a flicker of fire on the top of the 146-meter-high pyramid. If someone climbs up the pagoda, they will know that it is the Taoist priest breathing out flames to refine the Samadhi True Fire.

It's late at night and the stars are arrayed.

Liang Yue felt the cool breeze and looked up at the sky.

He is looking at the pyramids in relation to the stars.

I don’t know what mysteries are hidden in this vast world.

The longer he lived, the more Liang Yue felt that he was out of place in this world.

Years pass and time and space rotate.

The young appearance has turned into middle-aged, and the eyes have become more vicissitudes.

Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Liang Yue was breathing in and out at the top of the tower, and a fiery red bead appeared.

The beads continuously exuded Samadhi True Fire, which flowed into Liang Yue's body.

The color of the bead became darker and darker, and finally turned into a transparent glass ball, which eventually turned into powder.

Ten years later, Liang Yue finally completely refined the Samadhi True Fire, the Western Geng Fire, and the Zhurong Summer Fire into his own magical powers.

This kind of flame is extremely rare. Even in the old days when spiritual energy still existed, it was difficult for ordinary cultivators to obtain this rare item.

The flames of Chisongzi and Fang Hui were snatched from the tiger's mouth in the Kingdom of Queen Mother of the West.

Liang Yue opened his eyes leisurely. He did not stand up immediately, but sensed the changes in his spiritual thoughts.

"The divine consciousness is eight hundred feet long, and the active diameter is six hundred and forty thousand feet long...more than three million square kilometers..."

Centered on the physical body, the area of activity of the day and night wandering gods covers about one-third of Europe.

"not bad."

But that is not enough. One day, the wandering god will go directly to the outer stars and explore the starry sky freely. This will be a small achievement.

With human technology, in the modern world, we can't even explore the moon freely, and even exploring the earth below 10,000 meters is difficult.

He didn't dare to go out into the outer space with his physical body. The strong winds and radiation above, as well as the harsh vacuum environment, were not something he could withstand on his own.

Liang Yue stood up while thinking.

At this time, Orion, one of the twenty-eight constellations, coincides with the Pyramid of Khufu, and the Milky Way and the Nile River are in the same direction.

"The Pyramid of Khufu, the Spirit Gathering Array, and a mysterious teleportation array."

This teleportation array will not be effective for the time being.

Perhaps the mystery can only be unveiled when the time is right.

"Why not take this thing away?"

Baiyun Emperor Township has an area of 80 square kilometers, which is more than enough to accommodate a pyramid.

Thinking of this, Liang Yue made a prompt decision and prepared to swallow up the tower.

He circled the pyramid several times.

"Imprint your divine thoughts on each stone one by one, and then attract the Baiyun Emperor to come and accommodate him."

He couldn't move the entire pyramid with his own magical powers, so he could only do it in this way.

Two more years have passed.

In 730, Liang Yue was years old.

Cairo, Governor's Palace.

The governor from Constantinople was enjoying the wine leisurely under the service of the local natives.

At this time, the servant came to report.

"Someone discovered that there was light flashing from the pyramids. Locals said that the sun god had descended to earth. Paganism was showing signs of a resurgence."

"Sun God?" The Egyptian governor sat up straight.

To others, it might have been just a joke, but the suspicious Roman governor believed that this might be a conspiracy of rebellion by local believers.

"Take me to see the Sun God? There is no such thing as a Sun God. If this Governor sees this guy pretending to be a god, he will be hanged on the spot!!"

The Egyptian governor slammed the cup down.

The group headed out of the city.

Outside the city, local residents were kneeling in twos and threes, praying devoutly.

The Governor of Egypt followed the gaze of the crowd and saw a faint golden light flickering on the top of the tower, and even saw a tall figure.

"Hmph, get over there! This Governor will personally strangle this man!"

As soon as the words fell, golden light shone brightly.

The golden light dyed half of the sky red, making it impossible for anyone to open their eyes.

The golden light faded and the pyramid disappeared.

"god!"

"The sun god flew away!"

The people of Cairo were enthusiastic and ran around telling each other the news.

Was this a sign of their rebellion?

The Governor of Egypt muttered to himself, terrified, and his worldview collapsed. Seeing that something was wrong around him, the Governor of Egypt knelt down quickly.

"Almighty Sun God! I have received your call, everyone listen to my command. From today on, in the name of Sun God, all Egyptians unite to resist Rome!!"

This man suddenly became the leader of the resistance army, and more than 100,000 Egyptians who witnessed the miracle became their most staunch supporters.

When Egypt was founded, a sun temple was built on the original site of the pyramids. The painters of the time painted the sun god from behind.

It is known in history as the Sun God Change.

At this time, Liang Yue had already gone out to sea.

He planned to circle the earth and land in southeast China.

The sun rises and sets, and the seasons change from cold to hot.

……

The twenty-eighth year of Kaiyuan (740).

There is a dilapidated temple in Linzi, Qizhou.

It was early spring and the weather was a little chilly. The night wind whistled through the forest and blew into the dilapidated temple with only half a door.

A group of people in black were making a fire and cooking in the dilapidated temple. Someone moved a piece of wood to block the other door to prevent the cold wind from blowing in.

"Come here, there is just some Tu Su wine left. There is not much left. Let's share some." The leader took out the water bag and began to distribute the wine.

boom!
At this time, the wooden boards fell down and a cold wind blew in.

The visitor was an old Taoist priest, leading an old donkey.

The lively atmosphere suddenly stagnated. The men in black looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing who was the enemy.

The old Taoist's words broke the silence.

"I'm a traveler at night, looking for a place to rest, is it convenient for you?"

The leader spoke at this time and said, "It's convenient, Taoist priest, please take a seat. Xiaoliu, give Taoist priest a glass of Tusu wine."

"Thank you, hero."

The tense atmosphere suddenly dissipated.

A middle-aged man who looked exhausted came in from outside the door. After greeting everyone, he sat down next to the old Taoist.

After talking for a while, everyone found out that these men in black were originally disciples of Cangjian Villa and members of the Tianxia Association. They came to Linzi this time with a mission to accomplish.

The old Taoist priest was a wandering Taoist priest, and the only known surname was Xie.

The middle-aged man was not good at speaking, so he just said briefly, "I am an overseas wanderer, coming from the East China Sea."

The leader of the men in black asked curiously, "Your Excellency is from Penglai Island?"

The middle-aged man, Liang Yue, said: "No, it is the far east, the end of the vast ocean."

"What's there?" the old Taoist asked, his mind moved.

"It's endless, no less vast than China, but it's only the land of the local natives."

Everyone was surprised and didn't dare to believe what Liang Yue said.

Since there is such a precious land, how could there be no people here?
Most people don’t believe it.

The leader said politely: "If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely go and explore it. Come, have a drink."

Everyone held up a container, some took lotus leaves, some folded oil paper into cups, but Liang Yue was the only clever one, he actually took out a bunch of cups.

After drinking a sip of hot wine, the coldness in the body disappeared a lot.

"This Tusu wine is really good..." The leader took a sip, savoring the delicious taste. "It is indeed a famous wine of the Tianxia Association, created by the founder Tongtian. Legend has it that it was used by the founder to practice martial arts."

The old Taoist shook his head and retorted, "No, Tusu wine was created by the divine doctor Tongtian when he was practicing medicine in Chang'an City to remove the dampness in the patients' bodies. It was during the Wude period, when His Majesty Taizong was still the crown prince, and there was no Tianxiahui."

People at Cangjian Villa didn’t quite understand, after all, this happened more than a hundred years ago.

They were not Confucian scholars who specialized in the study of history; they only knew a few words from their ancestors.

"In the Wude era, the latest is 114 years ago. How did the Taoist priest know about this?"

A pale-faced scholar in the crowd asked.

"I heard it from my master. My master was born in the Wude era. All of my lineage is made up of wandering Taoists who travel around the world and record strange stories."

"Master Taoist, what is your name?" Liang Yue suddenly looked at this person. It seemed that there was also someone dressed similarly when he saw Xuanzang off that year.

"My surname is Xie, and my name is Panyin."

"But are you a descendant of the Xie family?"

Liang Yue's heart moved.

"That's right." The old Taoist stroked his beard and said complacently.

"So that's how it is. The descendants of the Xie family are indeed knowledgeable. However, you are wrong about the Tusu wine."

As soon as Liang Yue said this, everyone's attention was drawn.

In this remote countryside, it's nice to have nothing to do and listen to the stories told by the older generation.

"What's wrong with that?" The old Taoist was a little unconvinced. He had heard this from his ancestors, so how could it be false?

Is there anyone of Wude age here?
"Tusu wine was originally called Jiaobai wine. It was a New Year wine for the people in Jiangzuo during the Southern Dynasties. It spread as Liu Song unified the south, and then gradually lost its way. Taoist Master Tongtian's Tusu wine originated from Jiaobai wine. It is a product inherited from the ancients, not invented by Tongtian."

Before, with Li Chengqian coming to power, drinking Tusu wine became a custom.

Seeing Liang Yue’s solemn promise, the old Taoist would not do it anymore.

"Could it be that the old Taoist master is wrong? And who did you listen to?"

Liang Yue smiled, picked up the wine glass, and walked towards the back hall of the ruined temple.

"This man was born during the Northern Sui Dynasty. When he was young, the Tang Dynasty was just beginning and the Turks were fierce. When he was young, Emperor Taizong went north to destroy the Turks. When he was in his prime, Emperor Gaozong maintained the status quo and the world was created... When he was old, he traveled around the world and enjoyed the Kaiyuan Period..."

Everyone was so engrossed in listening that they didn't notice that Liang Yue had disappeared in the wind and rain.

If the person he was talking about was still alive, wouldn't he be over 130 years old?
The old Taoist was shocked and said:

"That person just now...could it be Taoist Master Tongtian?"
