Chu Nan Gong's words shocked Ji Yun greatly, causing him to fall into a daze. Even his forehead was covered in cold sweat. These words had revealed the biggest secret hidden in the deepest part of Ji Yun's heart. Regardless of whether Chu Nan Gong had unintentionally said it or had really discovered something, it was unbearable for him.
Chu Nan Gong saw Ji Yun's reaction. This reaction undoubtedly proved that his absurd words seemed to be true, which shocked him.
Transcending this world, what kind of concept was this? Chu Nan Gong could not imagine it.
The two of them were silent, and the room fell into a brief silence.
After a long time, Ji Yun finally woke up from his dazed state. He didn't know when tea was placed on the table. Ji Yun took a few sips of the tea and put down the cup. He had calmed down and said with a self-mocking smile,""I've embarrassed myself in front of Senior Nan Gong."
Chu Nan Gong smiled and didn't say anything, but his eyes were filled with admiration.
Ji Yun pondered for a moment before asking Chu Nan Gong the question he wanted to know the most,""Senior Nan Gong, may I ask what this world is? Who am I in this world?”
Chu Nan Gong seemed to know that Ji Yun would ask this question, so he wasn't surprised at all. However, he did not answer immediately. Instead, he picked up the teacup and slowly tasted it, as if he was organizing his words.
Ji Yun was no longer in a hurry and silently waited for Chu Nan Gong's answer.
What kind of world was this?
Ji Yun had been asking this question since his rebirth.
Before entering the Yin-Yang School, Ji Yun didn't come into contact with anyone or anything in the sealed snowland, so he didn't know what kind of world this was.
Later, Yueshen brought him back to the Yin-Yang School, and Ji Yun found out the answer.
Based on the world that Ji Yun lived in in his previous life, the era he was in now was more than 2,200 years ago. It was called the end of the Warring States Period.
At the same time, this world was not the Warring States Period that was recorded in history. In fact, it was just an anime in Ji Yun's previous life that was based on the story of Qin Shihuang unifying the six countries. It was different from the history that Ji Yun knew.
In other words, this world was just an anime world, a virtual world. This was the answer that Ji Yun came up with at the beginning.
However, when he met Donghuang Taiyi, he said that he was the Son of Heaven, the Son of the Yin-Yang School, and that he was given the word 'Tianlan' by the heavens. At that time, Ji Yun naturally did not believe that all of this was predestined. He thought that all of this was just a little trick played by Donghuang Taiyi. Ji Yun had seen this trick before. In the anime of his previous life, Donghuang Taiyi had given the female lead Gao Yue the name Ji Ru Qianlong.
However, as he read more ancient books and cultivated the Yin-Yang Art, Ji Yun knew that his understanding was wrong. It was indeed not the work of East Emperor Taiyi, nor could it be manipulated by humans. Ji Yun didn't know why, but he didn't want to believe that everything was really the so-called will of heaven, so he could only convince himself with coincidence.
Behind him was the jade pendant hanging around Ji Yun's neck. This jade pendant was an inheritance of the Ji family in his previous life. He had worn it since he was young. The Moon Goddess told him that in this world, the Ji Family, which had existed for more than a thousand years, also had a jade pendant like this. It was also an inheritance item. No, there wasn't one. Yueshen had once vowed that the jade pendant that the Ji Family had lost was Ji Yun's. There was no way she was wrong.
Why was that so? Were the two jade pendants just similar, or were they the same as what the Moon Goddess said? The Moon Goddess's solemn vow made Ji Yun unable to doubt the authenticity of her words. However, if it was the latter, then how could the Ji Family in his previous life and the Ji Family in this world be explained? Ji Yun didn't know.
Ji Yun had once wondered if the Ji Family he had lived in in his previous life was the same as the Ji Family in this world 2,200 years later. However, Ji Yun immediately rejected this ridiculous idea.
They were clearly two different worlds. How could they be related? Ji Yun found it hard to believe and was unwilling to believe it. Even though the jade pendant had already indicated that the two were definitely related, Ji Yun still forcefully convinced himself that it was all a coincidence.
However, something that happened later, or rather, something that appeared, made Ji Yun unable to deceive himself with coincidences anymore.
Three months after Ji Yun entered the Yin-Yang School, he had almost finished reading all the books in the library and had asked the Moon Goddess to bring him to choose a cultivation technique.
When Ji Yun followed the Moon Goddess into the Yin Yang Hall, he could vaguely feel a voice calling out to him from the depths of his soul. Yueshen brought him to the top floor of the pavilion. When they reached the highest floor, Ji Yun found the thing that was calling him. It was an ancient leather book made of unknown material.
According to the Moon Goddess, this leather book recorded a cultivation technique that was passed down from the Ji Family's ancestor. However, it was unknown who had passed it down and where it came from. This cultivation technique was extremely powerful, and it was even beyond human comprehension. Compared to the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a demigod book.
However, this cultivation technique actually chose its master. Those who were not recognized by it could not learn it at all. Therefore, since it appeared, there were very few people who learned this cultivation technique. What was even more peculiar was that almost everyone comprehended different things after learning this cultivation method. The only thing in common was that these abilities were extremely powerful, and those who learned it were also the heroes of the world.
Yueshen listed a few people, such as Marquis Xi Bo of Shang Zhou, and later King Wen of Zhou, Ji Chang. Ji Chang's son, King Wu of Zhou, Ji Fa, who overthrew Shang Zhou and established the Great Zhou Dynasty, was recognized by this technique. Ji Chang's divine divination could predict good or bad luck and the future. Ji Fa's outstanding military and political skills were the things they learned from him.
In the current world, there were only two people who had been recognized by this cultivation technique, and they were Donghuang Taiyi and Chu Nan Gong. No one knew what ability Donghuang Taiyi had obtained, but what Chu Nan Gong had obtained was a pair of eyes that could see through all lies and concealment. There was once a member of the Ji Clan on the Moon God Dao who had also comprehended this technique after Donghuang Taiyi and Chu Nan Gong. That person possessed a divination technique that was even stronger than hers, but he had already passed away a few years ago.
Ji Yun received the leather book under the Moon Goddess 'shocked gaze and easily obtained the recognition of this cultivation technique. However, when Ji Yun opened the cultivation technique and began to flip through it, he was even more shocked.
Ji Yun had seen this cultivation technique before, or rather, this cultivation technique that had three volumes-Great Dao Yin Yang. Ji Yun had already seen the contents of the first volume before, and he even memorized it backwards. And Ji Yun had seen this first volume in his previous life!
In his previous life, be it the Ji Family or the reclusive Gongsun Family, which had a long heritage, they had been able to stand tall in the world for countless years. Other than relying on the countless deep foundations that they had inherited for thousands of years, the greater reason was that the family had produced many talents. The reason why the two families had a peerless talent in each generation to take over the family business was because the two families had a peerless cultivation method that had been passed down since ancient times-the Gongsun family's Great Dao Art and the Ji family's Yang Yang Art.
In the later generations, after thousands of years of war and constant changes of dynasties, too many inheritances were destroyed by history. Putting aside the literature, all kinds of so-called martial arts and mental cultivation methods were mostly lost. Even if they were preserved, they were incomplete. Therefore, under such circumstances, the two cultivation techniques of the two great families were called divine level cultivation techniques.
However, although the outside world spread the word that it was a miracle, in reality, only the people of the two great families knew that there was only one cultivation technique. Yes, there was only one. The cultivation techniques of the two families combined could be considered a technique. But even so, this cultivation technique that combined the two parts was only incomplete. The people of the two families even speculated that this might be the most basic part of the true complete cultivation technique. Although Ji Yun was unable to cultivate these martial arts and mental cultivation methods in his previous life, he had read both of them and naturally remembered them. In comparison, the combination of their two families 'cultivation techniques in his previous life was the first half of the Demigod book in Ji Yun's hands!
All of this completely proved that this so-called virtual anime world was definitely related to the world that Ji Yun lived in in his previous life. Moreover, the connection was very strong. This time, Ji Yun could no longer find any excuses to convince himself. If he still attributed this to a coincidence, then he would be deceiving himself.
What kind of world was this? What did it have to do with that world? Ji Yun couldn't understand. This question had puzzled him for years, and he desperately wanted to know the answer. And according to the information Ji Yun knew, there were only a handful of people who could answer his doubts. He could only find Donghuang Taiyi and Chu Nan Gong, and only Chu Nan Gong.
In a daze, Ji Yun didn't know how much time had passed before Chu Nan Gong put down his teacup and slowly said,""I don't know what world this is either.”
"Chu Nan Gong doesn't know the answer either?”Ji Yun thought disappointedly, his eyes dimming.
Seeing this, Chu Nan Gong shook his head and reprimanded in disappointment,"Ji Family brat, why are you so persistent in pursuing this meaningless question? There must be a reason for everything to exist. Are you putting the cart before the horse by asking for trouble?”
Ji Yun opened his mouth, but he was speechless. "This old man doesn't know what secrets you have or what you're here for. However, I can confirm that this world is the world you are in, and you, Ji Yun, are also a member of this world, the young master of the Yin-Yang School. That's all.”
Ji Yun's mind flashed as if he had caught something, but he couldn't get in. His entire body was in a mess. Slowly, Ji Yun's face began to sweat, and his expression began to change continuously. Confusion, fear, pain...
Looking at Ji Yun's condition, Chu Nan Gong suddenly stood up. His eyes flickered as he picked up his walking stick and pointed it at Ji Yun's forehead. At the same time, he shouted,""Silly child, if you don't wake up now, when will you wake up?!”
In the chaos, Ji Yun's body shook, and his spiritual altar suddenly became clear. Ji Yun seemed to have seen many things and understood many things. The feeling was deeply imprinted in his mind, but he couldn't get it when he thought about it. It was really hard to describe. However, he was certain that the last trace of obsession and doubt in Ji Yun's heart had been completely wiped away.
After a long time, Ji Yun slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were clear and deep, and his entire person seemed much more ethereal and graceful.
"This disciple has gained enlightenment and thanks Nan Gong for his guidance.”Ji Yun stood up and faced Chu Nan Gong. He bowed respectfully and kowtowed three times with his hands on the ground.
"Haha." Chu Nan Gong didn't avoid Ji Yun's kowtow. He stroked his long beard and said with a smile,""You're worth teaching. Not bad, not bad!"
Ji Yun stood up and poured a cup of tea for Chu Nan Gong. He respectfully handed it over with both hands. Chu Nan Gong took it without hesitation and took a sip.
Although the two of them did not say anything, this process that was only done when they were apprenticed could be considered to confirm the relationship between the two.
Chu Nan Gong put down his teacup, patted the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book, and said to Ji Yun,""This book is fated with you. Stay here for a period of time to comprehend it.”With that, he walked towards the bed with his walking stick.
"I will listen to Nan Gong's arrangements." Ji Yun bowed to Chu Nan Gong." Then Nan Gong, rest early. I will take my leave."”
