He stared intently at Li Lan.
"That's all..."
"Very good. Close your eyes and clear your mind. I'm going to investigate!"
Helian Ba spoke in a deep voice and immediately prepared to step forward.
"No!"
But Luo Chuan stopped him, saying coldly, "Brother Helian, Li Lan is just a mortal, and he has only recently recovered from his injuries. I'm afraid your soul-searching technique will turn him into a fool!"
Helian Ba frowned and said, "Brother Luo, this boy is nothing but an ancient cripple, and he will never be able to cultivate in this lifetime. Is he worth your protection?!"
Luo Chuan remained unmoved and said, "The Dao Palace is named after the Dao, yet it has produced a scoundrel who dares to try to use his own disciples to refine Lesser Divine Pills. This is already a great disgrace. As Supreme Beings, are you and I also going to disregard the lives of our disciples? How are we any different from demons and evil spirits!"
Seeing that the two elders were in a standoff, Changsun Xu hurriedly said, "Elders, in my opinion, Li Lan is not lying. He is just a mortal. He would not know about the Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Formation, nor would he know about the escape route, let alone things like the Lesser Divine Pill and the Sealed Spirit Valley."
Helian Ba said coldly, "Fellow Daoist Luo Chuan, you must remember that my Dao Palace once worshipped a god and swore a blood oath. Do not let the death of Chisongzi confuse your stance and identity. No matter how much you admire Li Lan, he is still a person from the Primordial Emperor Star!"
His words were full of warning, and Helian Ba turned and left.
Changsun Xu also left immediately, preparing to investigate Fan Yuzhi's whereabouts.
"Thank you, senior."
Li Lan sighed inwardly. He had been prepared to have his soul searched by the other party.
"It doesn't matter,"
Luo Chuan said, "Just take good care of yourself."
"Senior, what does Elder Helian mean by that?"
Li Lan then seized the opportunity to ask a question!
Has he made offerings to a god? Has he sworn a blood oath? ... Li Lan is from the Primordial Emperor Star, so will Luo Chuan's protection of Li Lan cause any trouble for the Dao Palace?
Luo Chuan sighed deeply, then shook his head and said, "These are all old stories not worth mentioning, you don't need to ask."
"From now on, you will remain on this Heavenly Dao Peak. Go to my cave. Even if you cannot cultivate, reading more books on self-cultivation will be a good thing."
Upon hearing this, Li Lan felt even more strongly that what Helian Ba said must involve a truly top-secret matter.
Luo Chuan was unwilling to tell them, perhaps because if Li Lan knew these things, it would only harm them.
Li Lan and Zhou Xiang arrived at Luo Chuan's cultivation cave, which was also a huge Daoist palace. Li Lan followed Luo Chuan's instructions and looked through various books. Luo Chuan didn't ask any questions and let him look at them as he pleased.
"The ancient war actually left not a single word behind..."
Compared to the Southern Heaven Academy, the books collected in Luochuan can be considered treasures of the world, yet there is not a single record of them.
Everything about that period of history seems to have been deliberately erased, preventing future generations from knowing or inquiring about it.
"You want to know the truth?"
Perhaps sensing Li Lan's intentions, Elder Luo Chuan asked a question that day.
Li Lan did not hide anything and said, "The Primordial Emperor Star once had ancestral gods and immortals who emerged in the world. It must have been incredibly glorious in ancient times. But now, all the ancestral gods are gone, all the immortals are dead, and cultivators have completely disappeared from the Primordial Emperor Star... Li Lan comes from the Emperor Star, but he does not know the cause and effect, and he is unwilling to accept it."
"Hey,"
Luo Chuan sighed.
Li Lan could tell that Luo Chuan intended to give guidance, so he asked, "Elder, is there something you're having trouble saying?"
Luo Chuan glanced at the sky and said, "There's a saying on the Primordial Emperor Star: 'There are gods three feet above your head.' There are gods three feet above your head..."
"Ants are so insignificant that even when someone stares at them, they remain oblivious. Even when danger approaches, they cannot foresee it. To ants, you and I are gods."
He didn't answer directly, but spoke in a low voice, but Li Lan could hear the hidden meaning in his words!
There are gods watching from above...
Is there something in the shadows watching over everything in this world?
Will someone be doomed simply by mentioning something?
"If you ask a sheep about the scenery on the grassland, which sheep would know? And how could the sheep that does know dare to speak? Only the creatures of the grassland can understand."
Luo Chuan stopped there, saying, "There are quite a few people from the Primordial Emperor Star in the Dao Palace, but there are not many who can still maintain their curiosity and dare to ask questions... Don't go astray. Asking about some things in the wrong place can cause disaster."
This is a solemn warning!
Li Lan felt a chill run down her spine.
If he hadn't encountered Luo Chuan, and if Luo Chuan hadn't received such a great favor from Chi Songzi, the great cultivator of the Imperial Star, and thus harbored goodwill towards cultivators from Earth, Li Lan's questioning of these issues might have already triggered disaster!
"Thank you for the warning, senior!"
Li Lan said, "Where should we go to find the creatures of the grasslands?"
Luo Chuan pondered for a long time, then looked at Li Lan and said, "Having experienced the life-or-death crisis at Tianhuo Peak, you are still not afraid of the storms?"
Li Lan smiled calmly and said, "Life and death are indeed important, but there are many things in this world that are more important than life and death."
"If we are truly like ants, born without knowing why we are born or why we die, what is the meaning of life and death?"
Luo Chuan nodded solemnly and said, "Wait a moment."
"it is good!"
……
Next, Li Lan cultivated in the Dao Palace in Luochuan, immersing himself in books every day. Seeing his love for books, Zhou Xiang borrowed a large number of books from other libraries in the Dao Palace for him to read.
Zhou Xiang is now a disciple of Elder Luo Chuan, and his authority is very high.
In the blink of an eye, spring has turned to autumn, and another year has passed.
"Come with me."
On this day, Luo Chuan finally arrived, found Li Lan, and spoke solemnly.
"Can we see the grassland now?" Li Lan asked.
"The grasslands are long gone, but at least we can get out of the sheepfold first."
Luo Chuan spoke, leading Li Lan to the council hall of Tiandao Peak.
In the main hall, Changsun Xu sat upright, with Helian Ba to his left, and many peak masters and elders were also present.
Inside the main hall, Ling Xuewei and Liu Guiyuan... were also there!
