Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division

"Who is Taoist Xuandu?"

The middle-aged guard was stunned and did not react for a while.

Fan Wujiu ignored him, and his decayed body walked back and forth in the pavilion, as if he was hesitating about something.

After a while, he suddenly stopped and stared deeply at the koi in the lake.

The koi seemed carefree, but they were just trapped in this artificial lake.

And he was no exception.

Three hundred years!

Three hundred years have passed since leaving Mangniu Mountain!

But Taoist Xuandu's words seemed to have been said yesterday, and they were still fresh in my memory.

Fan Wujiu felt that he had spent these three hundred years in great entanglement.

He coveted Taoist Xuandu's promise and hoped to get Taoist Xuandu's help to improve his cultivation qualifications.

But he did not want to switch to Shintoism, and did not want his mind and will to be controlled by the other party and lose himself.

While resisting the other party's conditions, he has been following the other party's instructions for the past three hundred years, accumulating virtue and doing good deeds to prepare for the conversion to Shintoism.

But when all the preparations have been completed, his heart is still entangled.

Three hundred years have passed, and his life is about to run out, and the five decays of heaven and man are gradually approaching him.

Maybe next month?

Maybe tomorrow?

The five decays of heaven and man will really come, and he will die.

Then should he go to Mangniu Mountain to meet Xuandu Taoist again?

Fan Wujiu has been entangled with this question for a long time, so much so that in the past ten years, he has not stepped out of the National Master's Mansion.

For ten years, he has been sitting in this pavilion, staring at the koi in the lake every day, and has never moved his body once.

Even in the past year, he has forgotten what he was thinking about when he sat here?

The five decays of heaven and man are approaching step by step!

The body is decaying day by day!

And the entanglement with Xuandu Taoist's proposal has made his mind confused!

Fan Wujiu understood that he had already nurtured a demon in his heart.

He understood that this was a tribulation that every cultivator had to go through. Only by killing the demon in his heart and breaking through the barriers could he regain his mind.

But the obsession of fearing the choice in his heart made him want to immerse himself in the demon in his heart and never come out until he died.

Even the name of Xuandu Taoist seemed to have gradually faded in his consciousness and became blurred.

The demon in his heart made him deliberately forget the name of that person.

But today, he heard that name again in a daze.

When the four words "Xuandu Taoist" came out of the mouth of the middle-aged guard, it was like a flash of lightning that broke through the sky and split the haze that shrouded his heart.

Fan Wujiu had never thought that a person with just a name could actually have such power.

Or it could be said that it was this name that awakened the long-buried obsession in his heart.

That persistence was my past firm determination to pursue the Tao, but I have abandoned it in recent years.

What have I been struggling with for the past three hundred years?

Fan Wujiu suddenly wanted to laugh.

Didn’t I vow to become a superior person when I was begging on the street?

After entering the Holy Artifact Sect, I was determined to become the most powerful cultivator at all costs amidst the laughter!

And after being expelled from the Holy Artifact Sect, I still did not give up hope, and still struggled in the world every day, just to grab some insignificant opportunities in the eyes of others.

But what happened now?

Obviously, a powerful opportunity is right in front of me, but I am struggling?

And I have been struggling for three hundred years?

What am I afraid of?

Afraid that Xuandu Taoist will control my mind and force me to do things I don’t want to do?

Or is he afraid that after the matter is accomplished, Taoist Xuandu will break his promise and not let him return to cultivating the immortal way, and not help him improve his immortal qualifications?

How ridiculous!

Aren't these all risks that he should bear?

If he doesn't fight hard, if he doesn't risk it, how can he become a strong immortal with his qualifications?

If he doesn't offer his loyalty first, why would Taoist Xuandu help a stranger like an ant like him?

Where is his own value?

Isn't it just this loyalty?

Three hundred years of useless entanglement, has Taoist Xuandu been unhappy for a long time, so today, Taoist Xuandu will use this guard's mouth to help him break through the maze and break the demon in his heart?

Yes, in Fan Wujiu's opinion, Taoist Xuandu should have always known his entanglement.

It's just that the master is acting, and he wants to see him break through the maze with his own strength, so he has never taken action in the past three hundred years.

But now the five signs of decline are about to come, and I am about to die.

Fan Wujiu felt that Taoist Xuandu must have finally lost his patience, so he asked the guards to come to the Imperial Master's Mansion to wake up the "pretending to sleep" me.

Is the Taoist very disappointed with me?

Fan Wujiu smiled bitterly and shook his head, looking at the middle-aged guard again: "You go back, I will go to the palace to explain Qingming to the emperor later."

"Don't worry, Qingming can follow that person to practice, it is a great opportunity. When the emperor knows it, he will not only not blame you, but will reward you."

The middle-aged guard was shocked.

To be honest, he really didn't have any confidence in his heart just now, and he didn't think that the so-called Taoist Xuandu could make the Imperial Master personally go to the palace to explain.

After all, the person in front of him has not left the mansion for ten years.

Unexpectedly, the Imperial Master actually agreed?

This made him extremely curious about the identity of the Taoist Xuandu.

But it was obvious that the Imperial Master in front of him did not intend to explain to him.

So the middle-aged guard could only bow and say: "Thank you, Sir Imperial Master, I will take my leave first."

After that, he turned around and left respectfully.

Fan Wujiu moved his body and found that his joints were extremely painful.

He smiled bitterly: "What a terrible five decays of heaven and man, it has not really come yet, but it has already made my body decay."

"Fortunately, Taoist Xuandu sent someone to deliver the message, otherwise, if it was a few days later, I would have completely sunk into the inner demon and died in this pavilion."

Fan Wujiu shook his head and walked out of the pavilion.

He needed to arrange the affairs of the Imperial Master's Mansion, and then go to the palace to explain Hu Qingming's matter to the emperor.

He would deal with these things as soon as possible, and then rush to Mangniu Mountain.

Three hundred years!

He has wasted too much time!

At this moment, he really couldn't wait to see Taoist Xuandu again, asking him not to despise his unnecessary entanglement and give him a chance.

For this, he was willing to pay any price.

At the same time, he suddenly became very interested in the Shinto that Taoist Xuandu said.

He had naturally heard of the incense Shinto, but he had never really seen it.

So he wanted to know, how mysterious is Shinto compared to the immortal way?

For the past three hundred years, he has been using his own cultivation and the power of the national teacher to accumulate virtue and do good deeds.

Therefore, he wanted to know, with his current merits, if he really switched to Shinto, how much change would it be?
