Chapter 1577 Return to the Lower Realm (Sixth)

Li Muran and Xiao Lei did not stay in the Dingqing Valley for too long. After a few days, they flew away from this area.

"Where is the master going next?" Xiao Lei asked.

"There is another old friend of Meizu, I want to meet you." Li Muran said.

"What the master said about Jiu Daozi, the shopkeeper of Mengdiexuan?" Xiao Lei asked.

Li Muran nodded: "You understand my thoughts. Thanks to the care of the shopkeeper and Feng Ming in Mengdiexuan, otherwise I would have lost myself if I first entered the spiritual world, and I would not have the opportunity to come."

"I went to Fengyun Continent with my shopkeeper and Lingyu to travel together. After encountering an accident, there was no news about the shopkeeper. It was not until I ascended to the fairy world that I met the shopkeeper in Shenyou Taixu. However, at that time, his body had fallen, and only the divine thoughts existed in the illusion. If the illusion was not disturbed, it could exist for tens of thousands of years."

Li Muran said, then took Xiao Lei directly through the void and left Liuyue Continent, and returned to Fengyun Continent.

When Li Muran first entered the spiritual world, it was extremely troublesome to go to other continents. But for the current cultivation of Hunyuan Jinxian and who had initially understood the way of heaven and earth, he only needed a little sensing and a thought to perform the nameless escape and instantly appeared in every corner of the spiritual world.

Li Muran and Xiao Lei appeared directly in the Evil Spirit Valley, and then discovered that the illusion was still deep in the valley.

Li Muran had set up a brilliant seal here, making it difficult for the passing monks to discover the illusion here. Sure enough, after so many years, the illusion still exists.

Li Muran dispersed a wisp of divine thought and directly penetrated into the illusion.

The next moment, Li Muran's "silhouette" appeared in the snow and ice. There were ice peaks in the distance, and some cities were built along the ice peaks.

Li Muran flew to the Ice City. Although there were many pedestrians coming and going here in a hurry, Li Muran knew that these were just phantoms transformed by divine thoughts.

Everyone in the Ice City looked at Li Muran, some curious, while others were frightened and alert. For the "residents" here, the people or things around them remain unchanged forever. Li Muran, the sudden appearance of "outsider", naturally attracted everyone's attention.

The shopkeeper of a tea shop walked out of the store and saw Li Mu and was shocked: "Fellow Daoist Li?"

"Shopkeeper!" Li Muran smiled slightly: "Have you been working in your old business for the past 20,000 years?"

"It's been twenty thousand years?" The shopkeeper was stunned and said, "I don't know how many years passed here. I didn't expect that it had been so long! I didn't expect that after so long, Fellow Daoist Li could still remember me and come here to see me! Fellow Daoist Li said he wanted to ascend to the fairy world twenty thousand years ago. I guess he had become an immortal at this time, right?"

Li Muran nodded and said, "Some things are hard to erase no matter how long it takes. Have the shopkeeper ever thought of leaving or ending this illusion in the past 20,000 years?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and sighed, "Do you still want to persuade me this time when Fellow Daoist Li comes here? Actually, there is no need! Over the years, I have been completely immersed in this illusion, and most of the time I am even paralyzed, not feeling that I am in an illusion, nor the people around me are just illusions."

"On the contrary, the appearance of Daoist Li made me wake up suddenly. When I saw Daoist Li, I realized that everything around me was just an illusion and could no longer numb him. This would only make me recall those painful past events! Today, I was very pleased to learn that Daoist Li became an immortal, and I was very happy for Daoist Li. However, I was still willing to continue to stay in this illusion and continue to do so until one day the illusion is destroyed and my divine thoughts are dissipated!"

Li Muran nodded: "I understand! If there is no important thing, I will not come here to disturb the shopkeeper's purity!"

"What's the big deal?" the shopkeeper asked in confusion.

Li Muran said: "After all, the illusion is an illusion. Everything here is just an illusion, it is just a projection of divine thoughts. As for this ice city, the characters in it are just a wisp of divine thoughts. There will never be any change or unexpected things, because everything is under the control of divine thoughts."

"However, the reason why this world is wonderful is because there are unexpected things everywhere and surprises everywhere. Although many things are not under my control, it is because of that, it is more real; it is because many things will change and disappear, which makes me realize that they are worth cherishing."

The shopkeeper sighed: "I don't understand the truth that Fellow Daoist Li said! But I have lost my wife in reality, and I can only be with her in this illusion. For me, everything is meaningful if she has her place; if she is not here, even in the fairy world, it will be just a painful purgatory for me!"

Li Muran shook his head and said, "I am not asking the shopkeeper to return to reality alone - what I am the one who means is, if I am the one who has the ability to turn everything in this illusion into a living reality and integrate it into the real world of the outside world, will the shopkeeper be willing to accept it?"

"Turn the illusion into reality?" The shopkeeper was shocked: "Fellow Daoist Li means that you can resurrect both the old husband and his wife?"

"Not bad!" Li Muran nodded: "I have already initially understood the way of life and death. As long as the shopkeeper provides a trace of Liu Qingqing's breath, I can resurrect her! As for the resurrection of the shopkeeper, it is even easier, because as long as the shopkeeper has a wisp of divine thoughts, I can resurrect you!"

"The way of life and death!" The shopkeeper was surprised and happy: "Fellow Daoist Li has actually understood such a brilliant Taoist method. Has Fellow Daoist Li become a rumored top-level immortal?"

Li Muran smiled slightly: "The realm of cultivating immortals is endless, how dare I call myself the top level? However, there are not many people in the entire cultivation world who can master the way of life and death."

The shopkeeper murmured: "This matter is too important. I have never thought of having the opportunity to be married to Qingqing in reality. Please consider it carefully."

Li Muran nodded and said, "Don't worry, the shopkeeper can think slowly. I will stay in this lower world for a while. I will go to the Demon Realm first, and after returning from the Demon Realm, we will ask the shopkeeper's decision!"

Seeing that Li Muran was about to leave, the shopkeeper hurriedly asked, "Even if fellow Daoist Li has understood the way of life and death, it would probably cost a lot of energy to revive me and Qingqing. Why did Fellow Li help me so much? At the beginning, we met just a fate, and I thought I didn't have much kindness to Fellow Li. Even if there was, everything that Fellow Li had done before had already been rewarded, so why did he still help me with me so hard?"

Li Muran sighed lightly and said leisurely: "I am helping you, in addition to thinking about the friendship between old friends, you also have some selfish thoughts. To be honest, I am also separated from my wife's yin and yang, but unfortunately, I am unable to resurrect him for the time being. If I am able to resurrect the shopkeeper and his wife, I will feel more relieved to see you reunited."
