Time is passing.

The Old Taoist swallowed the Spiritual Energy Pill, and the sudden change shocked him greatly!

Gray hair turned black again!

The many wrinkles that were originally there also became lighter, faded, and even... disappeared completely at this moment!

Furthermore, many inexplicable changes occurred within the Old Taoist's body, which he could not explain or articulate, and could only be comprehended by himself.

As dawn broke, the Old Taoist walked to a nearby stream, looked at his reflection in the water, and was completely stunned.

Black hair and a youthful face!

Although he was clearly over sixty years old, his skin was as delicate and rosy as a baby's...

"This?!"

The Old Taoist stroked his face, feeling incredulous, as if he were in a dream.

"A fleeting dream?"

"Or perhaps... there really are immortals in this world?!"

He had practiced Daoism for decades, knew some martial arts, and was physically healthy, but that was all. Apart from that, he was just an old man who understood ' Dao Studies '.

Dao Studies is not Daoist law!

But how do I explain the changes in myself now?!

That moment, the elixir!

Furthermore, the other person had asked me if immortals existed in this world...

"A true immortal?!"

He was shocked, shook his head violently, and then bowed deeply in the direction Lin·Purple Firmament had left.

"No matter who you are, this kindness will never be forgotten!"

a long time.

The Old Taoist got up and, as he returned to his cave, murmured, "Fate."

"It truly is fate, its wonders are endless..."

On the other side.

Lin·Purple Firmament continued to trek through the mountains until dawn, but still had not found the 'inheritance' of the Alchemy Furnace.

"There should be Alchemy Furnace on Earth. After all, many documents say that there were ways to make elixirs in ancient times... and Daoists also knew how to make elixirs. Even if we can no longer cultivate immortality, there must be some things left behind."

"Keep looking."

She found a place, changed into the clean Daoist robe the Old Taoist had given her, and then continued on her way...

In Lin·Purple Firmament's view, there must have been cultivators on Earth a long time ago.

Otherwise, none of this makes sense.

Whether it's the numerous similarities between the novel and the Cultivation World, or the appearance of someone resembling Kong Xuan in the Cultivation World...

All of this proves that the Earth is definitely not as simple as it appears today.

Moreover, Daoist priests and Fangshi have always practiced alchemy, so finding an alchemy furnace is normal and reasonable, right?

This walk led them to the other side of the mountain.

From afar, a Daoist temple sits atop the mountain, serene and peaceful, yet permeated with an invisible and intangible yet perceptible ' Dao Rhyme '.

"This Daoist temple must have existed for many years..."

Lin·Purple Firmament whispered.

Monk?

She didn't realize it.

However, this Dao Rhyme must have been accumulated gradually by a person who has cultivated the Tao for many years; it cannot be faked.

The Old Taoist priest I met last night also possessed some Dao Rhyme, but compared to this Daoist temple, he was far inferior.

But the Old Taoist is just a person, while this is a Daoist temple, so they are not equal.

"Let's go take a look."

Lin·Purple Firmament took a step forward and muttered to herself, "If it's not here either, then it's not on Mount Wuyi. I'll have to go to the next place."

Wude Temple.

That is the name of this Daoist temple.

It's not very big, covering an area of about 200 square meters. Even so, you have to add the small courtyard inside. If you only consider the building area, it should only be about 150 square meters.

At this moment, it was just early morning, and the sun was rising from the horizon.

creak...

The gate opened, and a young Daoist priest, still sleepy-eyed, stretched and yawned, seemingly unsure whether he wanted to go back for a nap.

Just then, a hurried voice called out, "Little Master!"

"Young master, help me, young master!"

Chen An has arrived.

Behind him was a 'master'!

This master was naturally the 'expert' introduced by Chen An's group member, but this expert was actually a conman who cheated and swindled people. Because of his 'good skills' and his intelligence, he was never exposed and even gained a good reputation.

Yesterday, when Chen An approached him, saying he wanted to catch a ghost, he laughed and readily agreed, even asking what kind of ghost it was...

But the result was...

After watching the video, the master was dumbfounded!

This is a real ghost!!!

He was trembling and practically kicked Chen An out.

He's a conman, not an idiot. This is a real ghost; can he catch it himself?

No matter how much Chen An pleaded, it was to no avail.

That should have been the end of it, but that night, the master encountered a few strange things.

This made the already suspicious man instantly think that he had also been entangled with.

Therefore, before dawn today, he found Chen An, saying that he had thought of someone who could catch ghosts, and led him here...

This Jia Zhengliang, 'Master Jia,' does know the area.

The most famous and most revered Daoist temple on Mount Wuyi is located here. He thought, even if there really are ghosts, they can't just come to the Daoist temple and cause trouble, can they?

If they really dare to come, then naturally there will be countless gods and Buddhas to fight that ghost!

It's like a joke: what if you find some evil thing on the street? Of course, you throw it into the donation box and let Buddha fight it!

At that moment, Jia Zhengliang quickly arrived with Chen An, seeking help...

Who are you?

The young Daoist priest, somewhat puzzled, blinked and asked, "You two, are you here to offer incense?"

"No, I've come to beg you to save my life!"

Chen An was almost in tears. He hadn't slept a wink all night. Every time he closed his eyes, he felt the ghost hovering in front of him. How could he possibly fall asleep?

"We've encountered a ghost..."

"What the hell?"

"It's a ghost, a ghost!"

Chen An gestured frantically, and Master Jia was not much calmer either, saying, "Little Master, take us to see your master. I know him quite well. This time we've really encountered something evil."

"Is there really something dirty inside?"

The young Daoist priest was taken aback. "Where?"

The words had barely left his mouth...

Thud, thud, thud...

From the steps behind Chen An and Jia Zhengliang came the sound of crisp footsteps, growing louder and louder as they approached...

The two of them froze instantly.

Normally, if you only hear footsteps, you won't react at all. After all, there's not much of anything in this world except people, so what's so special about footsteps?

But after what happened yesterday, they could no longer remain calm.

At that moment, footsteps sounded behind them, like a death knell, as if the evil spirit was getting closer and closer, sending chills down their spines, as if even their necks were about to freeze...

He turned his head away with difficulty...

Holy crap!!!

"A ghost!!!"

Chen An and Jia Zhengliang had both seen the video!

At this moment, the 'ghost' is in the lead, and is walking towards us step by step. Who could forget that incredibly handsome face?

Furthermore, Lin·Purple Firmament was wearing a patched Daoist robe at the moment, and he didn't look like a normal person at all. The two of them were so frightened that they wet themselves on the spot.

"Master, help me, Master!"

Chen An took off running.

Jia Zhengliang was dumbfounded, his heart filled with fear. "Holy crap! We're doomed, this ghost is too powerful, it even dared to break into a Daoist temple like this..."

The young Daoist priest. "..."

"Isn't this just a person?"

Seeing Chen An rush into the courtyard and Jia Zhengliang standing there with his legs trembling, the young Daoist blinked, completely bewildered.

"What... is going on with you guys?"

"He's a ghost, incredibly powerful!"

"Little master, let's go inside quickly, please pray to all the gods for protection..."

"He's clearly a person!" The young Daoist priest said, both amused and exasperated. "Gentlemen, have you been watching too many movies?"

"He really is a ghost!"

Chen An screamed...

Then, as if he had just thought of something, he shakily took out his phone, turned on the video, and filmed Lin·Purple Firmament, who was less than ten feet away from the young Daoist priest.

"..."

Lin·Purple Firmament saw the screams of the group but did not stop them or offer any explanation.

She quietly stepped forward, passing the young Daoist priest and Master Jia, and stood at the courtyard gate, taking a careful look.

After that one glance, she sighed softly.

"Well!"

No!

Immediately, Lin·Purple Firmament glanced at Jia Zhengliang behind her, and then suddenly disappeared from the spot...

Holy crap!!!

Jia Zhengliang's heart pounded, and he collapsed to the ground, wetting his pants. He covered his eyes and cried out, "I was wrong, I was wrong!"

"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt its debtor. It has nothing to do with me! I'm just a liar, I... I don't know how to exorcise ghosts at all! Please, let me go, let me go..."

Chen An, who was also trembling with fear and filming the scene, thought, "???"

The young Daoist priest's eyelids twitched, and a chill ran down his spine. "What the hell is going on? Where is everyone?!"

"Who is it? I already told you, it's a ghost."

Chen An stammered, "Little Master, where... where is your master? I need his help to catch the ghost."

"!!!!!"

"Yes, ask him to help catch the ghost." Jia Zhengliang, realizing he was alright, also shouted.

But Chen An was not happy and cursed angrily, "Damn it, you dead liar!"

"I'm just trying to make a living..."

The young Daoist priest said, "... Gentlemen, my master has gone down the mountain and is not in the temple. In my opinion, you two should go and call the police!"

He was scared too!

Holy crap, a perfectly healthy person just vanishes right before your eyes! Who wouldn't be scared of that?!

Ghost hunting?!

They knew their own abilities and their master's capabilities. They were perfectly capable of giving lectures, reciting scriptures, or even engaging in some physical combat.

But catching ghosts?!

This thing...

They really don't know how!

Besides, what if we fail to catch the ghost and end up being resented by it?!

This ghost is terrifying! It even dares to come to a Daoist temple. Can my little body handle it?!

"Ah?!"

Chen An was dumbfounded and pleaded for help for a while, but unfortunately, the young Daoist priest really couldn't help him and could only tell them to leave...

no way.

Chen An and Jia Zhengliang could only tremble as they descended the mountain and headed straight for the police station!

The receptionist was still Zhao Tongtong, the policewoman from yesterday.
