Above the source of Tao

Chapter 4: Encountering an Immortal in an Unknown Space

Seven hours later.

At this time, Yun Changan's consciousness was wandering in a foggy space. There was no light. He could only vaguely see his body floating in this unknown space.

"Where is this place? Why am I floating and can't see anything clearly." Yun Chang'an looked at the changes in his body in horror. It was terribly quiet here, without any sound, but there was only a faint light in the distance, like candlelight, or fluorescent light.

Yun Chang'an looked at the light ahead with some fear, not knowing what to do.

The candlelight floated in front of Yun Chang'an's eyes like a ghost. Then he saw the appearance of the candlelight. Wasn't it the silver-gray liquid on the round disc of the ancient lamp?

"brat."

Just as Yun Chang'an reached out to touch the liquid, an extremely comfortable and pleasant sound came from the liquid.

Immediately afterwards, Yun Chang'an saw that the drop of liquid actually took shape automatically, and a beautiful figure appeared in his eyes.

The fairy smiled and looked at Yun Chang'an, who was standing there in a daze.

"Did you wake me up?"

"Wake up, I'm talking to you."

Two pleasant voices rang in his ears again. After a moment, Yun Changan came back to his senses and replied with a slightly red face, "Are you... a god or a ghost?"

Yun Chang'an tried hard to calm himself down. This was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Although he had not seen many people, in his impression, no one's appearance could compare to the woman in front of him.

"Immortal? I am just a remnant soul, living in this Four Yang Gourd Lamp."

When the immortal heard the little fellow's question, he couldn't help but laugh at himself, and then he continued speaking.

"Little guy, don't be afraid. Since you can enter here, you and I are destined to be together. Look at me in this state, how can I harm you? I just want to negotiate a deal with you. This deal is guaranteed to be of great benefit to you."

"Deal? What kind of deal can benefit me?" Yun Chang'an asked puzzledly.

"My real name is Hua Shichen. Thousands of years ago, I failed in my attempt to prove my Dao, which caused me to suffer a great loss of vitality. Later, I was sought after by my enemies, which resulted in my body being destroyed, two of my three souls being shattered, and my spirit being shattered. Now I am left with only one breath left to rely on this lamp to survive. Later, I escaped to a secret realm with the help of this lamp. After thousands of years, someone finally entered that secret realm and discovered this Siyang Gourd Lamp. Liu Shan was also lucky enough to get this lamp. He wanted to rely on it to reshape my bones. But he was attacked by a group of treasure hunters and before I could say a few words to him, he lost his life due to his severe injuries."

Hua Shichen said with regret that it was a great fortune to escape from the secret realm, but Liu Shan did not persist in the end. His injuries were too severe and he could not be treated. Hua Shichen had to wait for another thousand years. Now Yun Changan was the first person to discover this place.

"I just saw you take a magic pill. This pill is indeed extraordinary. Even I didn't recognize what it was. You didn't have any Yuan bones, just first-level white bones. But after taking that pill, you actually gave birth to five-element mixed Yuan bones. However, it is extremely difficult to cultivate such Yuan bones now. If the five realms were connected in the past and the road to immortality was not blocked, even if the white bones were practicing, it would not be as difficult as it is now. Why don't I teach you how to practice? You can endure the pain brought by the pill, which means you are also extraordinary and determined."

Hua Shichen said sincerely.

"Could it be that mortals could also practice cultivation in the past?" Yun Chang'an asked curiously, blinking his eyes.

"Really? Then what do I need to do?" he asked again.

"Of course you can. The cultivation environment in the past was much better than it is now. At that time, the vitality between heaven and earth was also very rich."

"Before the Great Dao of the Heaven Realm was perfect and had not yet collapsed, the bones could also be cultivated, but the upper limit was insufficient. Since the battle in the sky, the place where the five realms were connected was directly shattered, and the road to immortality was blocked, which made it very difficult. Of course, you don't have to worry, you haven't reached the strength to contact such secrets. For now, you have to take it one step at a time. When you can touch the strength of the Dao, help me do something."

"May I ask what the matter is, Fairy?" Yun Chang'an asked.

"Let's wait until you grow up and have a certain ability to protect yourself." Hua Shichen said.

"Right now, your body is very weak. You need to polish your body before practicing. Here is a prescription for strengthening your body. The herbs in it are also very common and easy to find. Although this prescription is a bit low-level, it is just right for you." Hua Shichen said again.

Yun Changan nodded. At that time, he had not yet come into contact with the cultivation of the Dao, and he was confused by these things.

After that, a prescription appeared in Yun Changan's mind. Looking at the herbs needed on it, he thought that Doctor Lu's clinic should have them all. I still have my grandfather's medical expenses to pay him back. The boxes at home and the savings left by my grandfather are probably enough to buy these herbs.

"Okay, I'm a little tired. I have to prepare these herbs as soon as possible after I go out. Then, I will teach you how to train your muscles and bones. If you can persist here, let alone have some extraordinary powers, at least I can make your weak body stronger." After saying that, Hua Shichen turned into a drop of liquid, floating quietly in this space, as quiet as if he had fallen asleep.

After a moment, Yun Changan's consciousness was awakened from the Siyang Gourd Lamp.

He picked up the Siyang Gourd Lantern and put it around his waist.

The inside of the Four Yang Gourd Lamp seemed to be an unknown space, where things could be stored. The fairy said that the internal space of the Four Yang Gourd Lamp was very large, and there were many places to explore, but Yun Changan currently did not have the ability to explore other places in this space.

I walked out of the cave. There was nothing else here except this cave. How should I get out?

At this moment, the voice of the fairy appeared in my mind, "There is a path inside this waterfall. You can get out by following that path, but this path goes along the cliff."

Yun Changan was stunned and said

"Fairy, why is your voice in my head?"

"You don't have to call me fairy, just call me Hua Shichen. I'm leaving a mark on your forehead, but don't worry, this mark won't hurt you, it's just for communicating with you."

"Go out and prepare the necessary materials. I will tell you how to do it."

"Thank you, Fairy Shichen."

After saying that, Yun Chang'an jumped into the pool and swam towards the bottom of the waterfall.

After a while, I saw steps on the cliff, which seemed to be naturally formed, so I climbed up using my hands and feet.
