Li Xuan stayed in the Eternal Volcano for a few days before bidding farewell.
After all, he was only there as a guest. He couldn't just stay there and not leave.
After leaving the volcano, they continued their journey towards Mount Buzhou.
Unknowingly, tens of thousands of years passed.
Now, there were more and more living beings in the Wilderness.
Li Xuan could already see signs of life on the Primordial Land.
Li Xuan lay prone above the clouds and suddenly saw a mountain in the distance.
This mountain was towering, and the earth vein connected to Kunlun.
In the mountains, white cranes perched on pine and cypress trees, while monkeys pulled vines and shuttled through the forest.
The sun shone brightly, and red clouds surrounded it.
A cool breeze blew past, and seven-colored clouds fluttered.
In the bamboo forest, birds were singing.
Among the wild flowers, the golden rooster was in full bloom.
This mountain was in stark contrast to the desolate wilderness, which was still sparsely populated.
Li Xuan pondered and realized that there should be a divine dwelling in the mountain.
He just didn't know who it was.
Li Xuan rode the auspicious clouds and floated towards the mountain.
The auspicious cloud landed on the peak of the mountain, and a Taoist temple stood there.
"Fifth Manor."
"The Immortal Mansion of Immortality, the home of the Daoist who lives as long as heaven.”
Only then did Li Xuan know where he was.
Longevity Mountain, Wuzhuang Taoist Temple.
The ancestor of the Earth Immortals, Zhenyuanzi.
Li Xuan carefully recalled that he hadn't seen anyone who matched Zhenyuanzi back when he split open the sky.
"I don't know if Zhenyuanzi hasn't actualized the Zenith Heaven or he just opened the sky, but he didn't go.”
Since he was already here, he would know once he paid a visit.
Dong dong dong.
Li Xuan knocked on the knocker on Wuzhuang Taoist Temple's door.
Soon, the door creaked open.
The two children with delicate features widened their watery eyes.
"Wow, Teacher said that there are guests coming.”
Bright Moon Child exclaimed.
"Mingyue, don't be rude in front of an honored guest.”
Qing Feng lectured Ming Yue with a straight face.
Brightmoon felt wronged.
Li Xuan smiled." Your teacher knew I was coming?”
Qingfeng nodded.
"Esteemed guest, please come in. Old Master has been waiting for a long time.”
Qingfeng Mingyue led the way as Li Xuan followed behind.
They soon arrived at the main hall of the Daoist temple.
In the main hall, the words "Heaven and Earth" were hung on the topmost wall in five colors.
There was also an incense table carved with vermilion lacquer at the bottom. On the table was a golden furnace bottle, and beside the furnace was a convenient incense burner.
Qingfeng turned to Li Xuan." Esteemed guest, please wait." I'll go and invite the teacher now."
Li Xuan nodded and left.
Looking left and right, Li Xuan walked to the incense table.
He took out three sandalwood incense sticks and lit them on the candlelight, burning three incense sticks for Heaven and Earth.
Not long after, footsteps came from outside.
A middle-aged Daoist in a wide Daoist robe walked in.
"Hahaha, I'm late. Please don't blame me, Fellow Daoist.”
Li Xuan hurriedly bowed." Senior, please don't take offense at my sudden visit."”
" You and I are close friends," Zhenyuanzi laughed." You're only so polite to me now."”
Li Xuan looked at Zhenyuanzi in puzzlement.
Zhenyuanzi stroked his beard." Big Luo is always around. Although this is the first time you've seen me, I've known you for a long time in the future."”
Li Xuan came to a realization. Perhaps Ancestral Phoenix and Yuan Huang had invited him over because they had a good relationship with him in the future.
Zhenyuanzi pulled Li Xuan to sit down." You're still more pleasing to the eye now. In the future, every time you come to my place, you'll either freeload food or drink.”
Li Xuan was a little embarrassed. Was this how he would be in the future?
Zhenyuanzi looked at Qingfeng Mingyue at the door and said,""Go get some fruits and entertain the guests.”
Qingfeng Mingyue accepted the order and left.
"This is the first time you come to my Fifth Manor.”
Li Xuan smiled." With your hospitality, I finally know why I'm freeloading in the future.”
Zhenyuanzi burst into laughter.
Not long after, Qingfeng Mingyue walked over with the ginseng fruit.
There were four fruits on the jade plate.
The fruit was like a newborn baby, with eyes, eyes, nose, and mouth.
No wonder Tang Sanzang didn't dare to eat it. If it wasn't for the fact that the fruit couldn't move, it would look no different from a real doll.
Zhenyuanzi was about to entertain Li Xuan when he suddenly looked outside.
"What day is it today? Another freeloader.”
Li Xuan was stunned.
A burst of laughter rang out from outside the door.
A red-robed Daoist carried a large red gourd on his back, looking rather heroic.
" You must be joking. I didn't manage to make it in time for you to entertain Fellow Daoist Li Xuan.”
"That's why I had no choice but to rush over from the future to get a meal.”
"After all, you have too few fruits. If you want to satisfy your craving, you have to seize the opportunity.”
The Daoist in red walked into the main hall as he spoke.
"Fellow Daoist Li Xuan, yes, it's our first meeting.”
"I am Hongyun."
Li Xuan returned the greeting." Daoist Hongyun, are you familiar with me in the future?"”
" Of course," Hongyun said with a smile." Just now, you were talking about how Zhenyuanzi treated you when you first met him."”
"That's why I was thick-skinned and went against time to come here and freeload on a fruit.”
Hongyun did not stand on ceremony and found a seat to sit down.
" You're just doing this for a fruit," Zhen Yuan Zi said angrily." You're really shameless."”
"In this way, the future timeline will change again.”
Hongyun said indifferently," I didn't affect anyone else. If I were to change, it would only allow me to get to know Fellow Daoist Li Xuan in advance.”
Zhenyuanzi spat." Who's talking about that? I'm saying that I originally got four fruits. Fellow Daoist Li Xuan and I each got two.”
"Now that you're here, I have to get two more fruits.”
"Oh, don't be so stingy." Hong Yun chuckled. You don't often give these fruits to others. You've saved up so much over the years. What's wrong with me eating two?”
" Humph!" Zhenyuanzi snorted." Every time my Earth Book Formation is activated, I need to consume a lot of fruits to replenish it. The fruits I have saved are all useful."”
Hongyun nodded." I know. That's why I don't want to eat the old fruit. I want to eat the fresh fruit that you just picked."”
Zhenyuanzi and Hongyun bickered as Li Xuan ate fruits and watched the show.
From the time Hongyun could enter Wuzhuang Taoist Temple without any notice to the time when he was bickering with Zhenyuanzi, the two of them were indeed good friends.
Li Xuan suddenly thought of something and asked.
"Daoist Hongyun, you know that I came here during the Cosmic Calamity in my previous life. I heard that you were chased by the Kun Peng and had no choice but to self-destruct.”
Hongyun was taken aback, never expecting Li Xuan to ask such a question.
"Well, there is indeed."
"However, it's all for show."
"You also know that I'm very popular, so I'm quite close to Mother Nuwa.”
"She showed me a clear path."
