Chapter 221: Fate
The entrance to this cave doesn't look big, and there is nothing special about it, Feng Heng doesn't understand why these seniors like to live in the cave, and he doesn't have time to care about these at the moment, so when he came to the cave, he slowly walked in with Xue'er in his arms.
Unexpectedly, when I entered, I found that this place is not as small as it seems, there is a cave in the cave, it is a very spacious hall, the most striking thing is that there is a stone platform on the right side of the hall that is several meters square, and on it, a mysterious magic circle is exuding a soft light.
Feng Heng took a few glances and found that this magic circle was very complicated, full of all kinds of large and small runes and some star points, and he didn't know what it was for.
"You're here..."Suddenly an old voice sounded, Feng Heng turned his head to look, only to find that there was a person sitting in a corner of the cave, which looked like a sculpture at a glance.
"Senior..."Feng Heng hurriedly put Xue'er down, walked over and saluted deeply.
This man was very different from the fortune teller he had seen that day, his face was very old, his long snow-white hair hung down to the ground, and his white beard was more than a foot long, and he looked like he was about to die.
The old man smiled slightly, and the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together, "Yes, it has grown a lot compared to before, and it can be said that he is a hero out of a teenager." β
Feng Heng smiled, "Senior, junior has a question I want to ask you this time..."
Feng Heng was halfway through speaking, but saw the old man stretch out his hand to interrupt his words, "I'll talk about this later, let me ask you, where did you get this half-demon from?" The old man said, his eyes looking directly at Xue'er on the side.
"Half-demon?" Feng Heng was stunned, "Oh, it was the junior who came here and saved it by chance." β
The old man nodded, and Xue'er seemed to be a little scared, and shrank behind Feng Heng.
"You... What's your name?" the old man looked at for a while before asking Feng Heng again.
"The younger generation is always windy. "In this case, Feng Heng naturally doesn't want to say the name Liuyun anymore.
"Except for the name?"
"This..."Feng Heng was a little surprised, "Liuyun." β
"Liuyun?" the old man shook his head, "that's your name here." β
"What does the senior mean?" Feng Heng was shocked in his heart, could it be that this old man could see through his peculiarity?!
The old man thought for a while, "Do you know why I gave you the Yin Yang Order?"
Feng Heng shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.
The old man looked at him, "Because I'm curious?"
"Curious?" Feng Heng was stunned, "Are there any other things in this world that the predecessors are curious about?"
The old man smiled bitterly, "I heard that you rashly broke into the Gu Jian Sect when you came, and also injured their disciples, is there such a thing?"
Feng Heng didn't know why he said this, and he didn't understand how he knew, so he could only nod when he heard the words, "The situation at that time..."
The old man stretched out his hand again to interrupt it, "I don't mean to blame you, although I am the founder of the Gu Jian Sect, I have long had nothing to do with everything in the world, I just want to tell you one thing when I mention the Gu Jian Sect." β
"Please ask your seniors for advice. β
"Gu Jianzong is different from other cultivators, they practice a unique technique, this technique I got by accident, I call it 'Mirror Technique'!"
"Mirroring?"
The old man nodded, "This is a powerful and mysterious technique, I can't go into details about the specific origin, and in addition to being used to ward off enemies, its greatest function is divination! This is why I can be called Mr. Yin and Yang." β
Feng Heng frowned and thought about it, "The juniors still don't quite understand what the seniors mean. β
The old man looked at him, "Do you believe in fate?"
"Fate?" Feng Heng was stunned, and immediately rang out at the banquet that Kane had attended that night, and someone had asked this question at that time, and said something that shocked him, and now what did the senior mean by asking.
"Yes, an invisible and tangible trajectory, or you can call it a rule. β
"Rules? Is there really such a thing in this world?"
The old man was noncommittal, "Maybe there is, maybe not, as I sit in front of you now, you can see me as real, or as a joke or a dream." β
"Dream?" Feng Heng was a little confused by his series of mysterious words.
The old man nodded, "When I accidentally obtained the mirror technique, I also got an ancient mirror that can illuminate fate, which I call the 'Heavenly Mirror'. As he spoke, the old man raised his right hand slightly, and saw a burst of brilliance shining in his palm, and immediately showed a palm-sized bronze mirror with a simple shape.
Immediately, the old man stretched out his hand and handed over the mirror.
Feng Heng took it carefully, took the ancient mirror and looked at it carefully for a while, and found that it was no different from an ordinary mirror, and then took a head-on look, but saw that the originally smooth mirror suddenly shook, showing some blurry images.
"Calm down, don't think about anything. The old man reminded.
Feng Heng nodded, and then concentrated on looking in the mirror, but when he heard the sound of the wave, his body suddenly stumbled, and he almost fell, and he couldn't help but be taken aback when he looked around, only to see that the surrounding scenery was no longer the cave before, but turned into a void, and the clouds and mist in the distance could not be seen clearly, and not far ahead, a huge multicolored vortex was quietly spinning.
"What is this?" Feng Heng didn't know where this was, let alone what this thing was in front of him.
"It's amazing, isn't it?" Suddenly a voice sounded, Feng Heng turned his head, only to find that the old man had come to his side at some point.
"Where are we?"
Unexpectedly, the old man also shook his head blankly, "What you see now is what I am curious about, it... It's your destiny. β
"My fate?!" Feng Heng couldn't help but take a closer look at the huge vortex not far away.
The old man nodded, "I don't know the origin of this mirror, but it is undoubtedly a divine object, it can illuminate a person's past and future, although that future is shifting every minute, but the general trend will not change, except for yours." β
"Mine?"
"I've been looking at this vortex for a long time, and I can't see anything out of it, and in the end I can only come up with one answer, you're special, so special that this mirror doesn't show you anything. β
"Why is this happening?"
The old man shook his head, "I've thought about this question countless times, and the reasons can only be two, one is that your identity may be so special that you have transcended the rules of this world and are above fate, and the other reason is... You may not be of this world!"
"!!" Feng Heng can't describe the shock in his heart, some people and things have become more and more confusing recently, rules, fate, and the world, these are all things that have been holding him back since he was born, and now, he seems to have really found some edges.
The old man naturally discovered his abnormality, "To be honest, I have lived for so long, and I have no interest in most things in this world, but in recent years, I have become more and more curious about you and the vortex in front of me, can you tell me about your experience?"
Feng Heng was silent for a long time before he spoke, "The senior just said that my identity may be beyond the rules of this world, can you tell me what it is?"
When the old man heard him say this, he knew that he was obviously reluctant to mention his experience for the time being, so he shook his head and sighed before saying: "I can't answer you for the time being, after all, strictly speaking, I am just a mortal, but there must be some things above the rules, according to the world, you can call it God, and between God and man, there is an incomparably strong but difficult to find barrier, I call it 'Boundary'." β
"Boundary?"
"It's just a superficial definition, but this realm is real, like this mountain of the two realms, separating two different regions, unless one day you can split this mountain like the mountain of the two realms, you will never understand the other side of the world. β
Feng Heng nodded, "Then may I ask you, senior, do you think there are other worlds besides the human world and the demon world?"
The old man smiled, "Of course, as far as we know, in addition to the human world and the demon world, there is also a demon world. β
"Demon Realm?"
"This demon world is an indescribable world, in that world, there is a group of people who claim to be 'demons', their cultivation is different from that of humans and demons, but it is also basically a form of energy ascension, and the world I told you before is not a real world like the human world, the demon world, or the demon world, but something more mysterious. β
"What's the difference between a human, a demon, and a demon?"
The old man paused before saying, " As far as we know, the human race eats grains and grains, follows the way of nature, and can be said to be the most single and pure individual under the way of heaven, and the demon race does not have a fixed body, they can be an animal, a big tree, or even a small grass, born in accordance with nature, but the appearance of the formed demon race is generally similar to that of humans, but it can also return to the ontological form, which belongs to a combination of human beings and nature, as for the demon race, we know a limited amount, only know that their situation seems to be very different from the human race and the demon race, and there are even rumors that they are not entities, but just an energy body, but one thing, the demon race seems to be the most powerful of the three racesγ β
"Energy body, where is the demon realm?" Feng Heng hurriedly asked, the characteristics of this demon clan made him instantly think of Xiao Huan'er's current situation, if what the old man said was true, then it was very likely that the one occupying Xiao Huan'er's body was really a demon clan.
The old man shook his head, "I already know what you're here for, and I probably won't be able to give you a definite answer to the question you are asking, because I can't predict anything about you, but fortunately, I can predict your friend's affairs and know where she went." β
"Please let the seniors know!" Feng Heng suddenly became excited when he heard this.
