Crossing the Cultivation Realm: Two Souls Coexist

Gu Yang's footsteps echoed on the broken stone steps, and the desolation around him swept through his heart.

"Brother Gu, Brother Gu, what's wrong with you?"

Hu Qing sat up in his dantian. He also noticed that something was wrong with Gu Yang and he was a little dazed.

Gu Yang acted as if he didn't hear anything. He continued to look around. Everywhere he looked was still bleak, which made him feel a little melancholy.

Seeing this, Hu Qing didn't care whether it was exposed or not. He injected his soul power into the base and hit Gu Yang's dantian with force.

Gu Yang's eyes also became clear at this moment. He opened his sore eyelids and saw that the scene around him was still bleak, but there was no longer that negative atmosphere.

"A Qing, what's wrong with me?" Gu Yang asked with some confusion.

"I don't know. You became completely passive, as if you couldn't sense my presence, and kept walking up the stone stairs."

After Hu Qing said this, he asked Gu Yang to take out a mirror from the storage ring. When he looked at it, he found that his eyes were already red and filled with tiny bloodshot.

"Brother Gu, this place is too weird, it's better to be careful."

Gu Yang nodded, and looked at the turn ahead with a sense of fear. If Hu Qing had not woken him up, he would have probably fallen here.

The higher you go, the richer the spiritual power becomes, and a light green color begins to appear around you.

Mengfeng should also have a spirit gathering array, but it may not be as high-grade as the one on Zongzhu Peak.

After all, Fang Yu also said that it was the only eighth-level spirit gathering array, but I don’t know what level the spirit gathering array of Mengfeng is.

After turning two corners, some houses appeared in Guyang's sight.

His eyes wandered among the surrounding caves and stone rooms. Although these buildings were dilapidated, one could still see their former scale and grandeur.

But it is still desolate. Some caves are covered with spider webs outside and some have even collapsed.

Continuing to walk up, Gu Yang finally saw a figure.

He quickened his pace and finally saw some people around, so he wanted to go up and say hello.

However, the thin man seemed to be disturbed by his arrival and instead quickened his pace. Like a frightened deer, he quickly disappeared from Gu Yang's sight.

Gu Yang felt a little doubtful, but he did not stop.

Now, we just need to go to that platform and find the two elders to ask about these strange things.

He continued to climb and finally reached a large platform halfway up the mountain.

There are two larger houses standing here. Compared with the dilapidated surroundings, they look particularly solemn and should be the residences of the elders.

Behind him was the sea of clouds. Gu Yang adjusted his state and then walked towards it.

He came to the middle of the two houses. The sunlight shone on the red tiles, like a layer of light gauze covering them.

The door of the house on the left was tightly closed, as if rejecting all disturbances from the outside world. Not even a breeze could blow in, let alone human breath.

The courtyard door on the right was half-open. Through the gap, Gu Yang could vaguely hear faint sounds coming from inside, as if someone was whispering.

He knocked gently on the courtyard gate on the right, and the two soft sounds were particularly clear on the empty platform.

However, there was no response from inside the door.

Gu Yang was not impatient. He stepped aside and waited quietly.

As time passed, the surrounding sounds gradually died down, leaving only the sounds from the room on the right becoming clearer and clearer.

"The sky covers all without equal, and the earth carries all without equal..."

"The Great Way is natural, and all things are created equally..."

"All things return to it, but it is not the Lord..."

There should be a sermon inside, but the voice is quite interesting, sometimes high-pitched and passionate, sometimes low and gentle.

Every syllable seems to be carefully crafted and full of magic.

Gu Yang was unconsciously attracted by the sound. He began to listen, and gradually, he found that he had forgotten the passage of time and why he came.

Every word and every sentence was like a drop of water, falling on his dry heart and nourishing his soul.

He was intoxicated and completely immersed in the world of equality constructed by the sound, unable to extricate himself.

Hu Qing felt something was wrong as he listened. Why did this sound so much like Taoist thought? Did Confucius also have disciples in this world?

However, in this world where the strong prey on the weak, equality is extremely difficult to achieve for everyone.

This is their own unique paradise.

"You must be the new student that the Sect Master mentioned."

A gentle voice interrupted Gu Yang's thoughts. He suddenly came to his senses and found that he had been standing in the yard without knowing when.

Standing in front of him was an old man wearing a green Taoist robe.

The old man had a kind smile on his face, but his eyes revealed a deep wisdom.

It seems that the sermon has ended, but I don’t know why the disciples disbanded so quickly.

Hu Qing knew about it, but Gu Yang was in a trance at the time and he didn't want to disturb him.

There are only fourteen disciples in total, but I don’t feel very familiar with any of them.

"I...I was attracted by your voice and unconsciously..."

Gu Yang was a little embarrassed, realizing that he might have been rude.

The old man waved his hand, signaling him not to worry. "It's okay. The fact that you're attracted to my voice shows that we're destined to be together. Come in, and let's talk."

Gu Yang followed the old man into the house. The interior was simple and rustic, with a wooden table, several cushions, a landscape painting hanging on the wall, and an oil lamp on the table.

The flickering lights illuminated the wrinkles on the old man's face, each of which looked like a mark left by the passage of time.

"Please sit down." The old man pointed to the cushion next to him.

Gu Yang sat down and looked around. He couldn't even see through the old man's aura.

"The Sect Master has told me everything through telepathy. My last name is Han, so you can just call me Elder Han. The other Elder Yan is still in seclusion, so it will probably be a while."

After Elder Han finished speaking, he took out an ancient book from his storage ring and handed it to Gu Yang.

Gu Yang took it with both hands. The cover of the book had turned yellow, and there were a few ancient characters written on it that he didn't recognize, but he could feel the ancient atmosphere emanating from the book.

"This is..." Gu Yang couldn't help but ask.

"Our Mengfeng's technique, the 'Great Dream Technique' or the 'Great Dream Heart Technique', was specifically instructed by the Sect Master to give it to you to read. After you memorize it, return it to me." Elder Han said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yang placed the ancient book on his knees more solemnly and gently stroked the old cover.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Elder, how are our caves divided?"

The store inside the token has been coveting Gu Yang for a long time, and this problem must be solved as soon as possible.

"Tsk, look at my brain, I actually forgot such an important thing. Mengfeng hasn't had a new disciple for a long time, and I even forgot this." Elder Han smacked his head twice in regret, and then said apologetically.
