In front of the pool.
What Ye Ling said made Xia Qingsong angry.
This place was the forbidden grounds of the Xia Family, and the matter regarding Jin Lian had not been settled with Ye Ling, but she actually dared to make use of this chance to negotiate conditions with him?
Xia Qingsong was enraged, but he did not know how to reject, if he offended Ye Ling, in the future if it was necessary, he would not be able to speak of it again.
Thinking that Ye Ling's body had an immortal, Xia Qingsong hesitated and decided to delete it, then nodded in approval. In any case, everything inside the pool's stone door was owned by the Xia Family, at most, Ye Ling would just accompany him inside.
Seeing Xia Qingsong's nod, Ye Ling smiled slightly, feeling extremely pleased in his heart. Naturally, Xia Qingsong could not do anything to him;
The two of them looked at each other for a long time. They flew directly into the pond. When they arrived at the stone door, they suddenly felt a terrifying aura pouncing on them. They could not help but step back.
"What a powerful aura. Is this the power of an immortal?" Ye Ling was shocked. He felt an irresistible fear as he sensed the aura being emitted by the stone door.
This was a feeling of unease that he had never felt before. Even if he wanted to, he had never felt this helpless towards the immortal in his body. His expression was grave as he looked at the stone door in front of him.
The mist inside the stone door was in chaos, making it impossible to see what was going on inside. However, the powerful aura continued to gush out.
Xia Qingsong's expression was extremely excited, he simply wasn't as strong as me, so he quickly stepped inside the stone door.
Boom! *
But, just as Xia Qingsong was about to enter, he suddenly saw Xia Qingsong being struck, and was knocked outside the door.
"This... How is that possible? " Xia Qingsong revealed a puzzled expression, his eyes opened wide as he looked at the opened stone door, and asked in shock.
Ye Ling frowned, this was the forbidden grounds of the Xia Family, even Xia Qingsong found it difficult to enter. This made him a little worried, and he thought to himself, "Could it be that this is not the place where the ancestor of the Xia Family goes to seclude himself?"
Just as Ye Ling was feeling surprised, Xia Qingsong suddenly turned around with a face full of ill intent and asked: "Don't you want to go in? "Come, I'll let you in first, don't blame me for not paying attention."
Ye Ling heard and his expression suddenly changed. He raised his hand and rubbed his nose with a strange expression on his face. The reason Xia Qingsong let him in so suddenly was obviously to test if he could enter.
"Old fox!"
"He knows he's no match for me, but he's actually plotting against me?"
Ye Ling frowned, he had a sly smile on his face, and then nodded his head and agreed to what Xia Qingsong said, since he was determined to win this time.
Stepping forward, Ye Ling arrived in front of the stone door and felt a strong air current being emitted from within. His expression was somewhat grave, but he still did not waver in his decision.
When he looked at Xia Qingsong again, his expression was extremely tense. However, he was pondering deeply in his heart as he saw that Ye Ling had the protection of an immortal, so the chances of him entering was very high.
Just as Xia Qingsong was suspicious, Ye Ling walked out. The moment he stepped into the stone door, his body suddenly released a gold light that enveloped his entire body.
Surprised, Ye Ling actually didn't face any hindrances when he stepped into the stone door. Instead, he easily stepped inside the stone door, and that intense current of air disappeared right after.
"That's true!"
When Xia Qingsong stepped through the stone door, he was actually not obstructed. He was certain of what he was thinking in his heart, that without the power of an immortal, he would not be able to resist the Immortal's Qi.
Ye Ling stepped into the stone door, and the mist in front of him dissipated in an instant, revealing another world inside the stone door. The inside of the stone door was beautiful, like a paradise, with hundreds of birds chirping in, it was a peaceful scene.
"So there's another world?"
"It seems that man in green must be here."
Seeing the scene in front of him, Ye Ling could not help but exclaim in surprise, but he did not know that after staring behind him for so long without stepping into the stone door, what he saw was still a ball of mist.
"What is he doing?" Xia Qingsong was at a loss. Seeing that Ye Ling was standing in the clouds and was not moving at all, looking like he was in a daze, Xia Qingsong got his curiosity.
After being silent for a moment, Xia Qingsong was still not willing to let the matter go, he immediately walked towards the stone door, and when he got near to Ye Ling, he was suddenly blocked by a powerful force.
Xia Qingsong's face ashened. He watched helplessly as Ye Ling entered and exited while he was actually obstructed outside. This caused his heart to be unable to calm down and he became even more furious.
However, Ye Ling, who had entered the stone door, immediately stepped into the inner world, and instantly disappeared from Xia Qingsong's sight.
Seeing that, Xia Qingsong was flustered and exasperated, but facing the power that was blocking him, he could do nothing, and there was nothing he could do.
Ye Ling, who had stepped into the paradise, felt a wave of guiding aura approach him. He frowned and stepped into the air.
Above the peak, the sky was covered in white clouds, and there was a pavilion at the peak that was extremely eye-catching. Ye Ling looked at the pavilion at the peak of the mountain, only to see a figure inside.
Ye Ling was flabbergasted and his face turned serious. He immediately flew closer, and when he neared the pavilion, he saw that the person standing there was actually looking directly at him.
This person was wearing green clothes and had a long hair. His aura was reserved, making it impossible for him to see this person's cultivation level because that person was the man with the golden lotus transformation.
When Ye Ling absorbed the inner strength of the golden lotus, he had accidentally obtained the memory of the golden lotus, which was why he got to know this azure-dressed man in front of him.
Ye Ling was shocked in his heart, because he knew that the light robed man in front of him was an immortal.
Ye Ling flew closer to the pavilion, and the green clothed man immediately cupped his fists and bowed, and then said: "I have trespassed into the immortal residence, senior, please forgive me."
"Meeting is fate."
"You absorbed the golden lotus that I planted, and then you were able to enter here. This is destiny."
The green-clothed man looked a little melancholy, and looked at Ye Ling with an unbearably cloudy gaze. His tone of voice seemed to be somewhat low and weak.
"Thank you for your indulgence, senior."
"You're an Immortal, so why did you choose to be here?"
The light robed man was easy going as he stood in front of Ye Ling. His words seemed to be filled with helplessness which confused, hence he opened his mouth to ask.
"I don't want to stay here either."
"I am the last person to reach Immortal Ascension. However, because of the inexplicable closing of the Door of Immortality, I am unable to enter the Immortal World. I can only linger on here."
The green-clothed man felt helpless. Everyone wanted to become immortals, but who knew what the difficulties of Immortals were? If the Door of Immortality was not opened, what could Immortals do?
If they didn't enter the Immortal World, they would face death due to old age. They would have to struggle on with their last breath and hide in the darkness.
When Ye Ling heard the green clothed man's words, his expression became somewhat surprised. The final person to become an immortal was definitely something that caused people to be shocked and confused.
"Is Senior the patriarch of the Xia Family?" Ye Ling dared to directly ask for the identity of this person. According to Xia Qingsong, that golden lotus was left behind by a generation's patriarch, but he knew that this golden lotus was the embodiment of the azure-dressed man from two years ago.
"That's right!"
"My name is Xia Huai, and that golden lotus … It's very important to me, and to Xia Family as well. "
The green clothed man frowned, his expression instantly becoming somewhat cold. He looked at Ye Ling with eyes that seemed to be filled with anger.
Just as he had said, the golden lotus was his life. With the existence of the golden lotus, he would be faced with annihilation.
However, he felt hatred and helplessness towards Ye Ling, because he knew that this was all due to the will of heaven, and that he would eventually turn into ashes after entering the Immortal World. He had been hiding here for so many years just to wait for the day when he could reopen the Door of Immortality.
He saw hope in Ye Ling, and at the same time, despair, which was why his current emotions were extremely unstable.
Ye Ling could not help but take a step back. Seeing Xia Huai's appearance, he was terrified, but after a while, seeing that Xia Huai had regained his composure and was still in a deep sleep, he relaxed his guard.
"You are here at the behest of the person in your body?" Xia Huai frowned, his eyes flashed with a bright light when he saw Ye Ling asking in a low voice.
"Yes."
"I'm a bit curious about Immortals. I also want to know where the Door of Immortality is. How do I get into the Door of Immortality?"
Ye Ling nodded slightly, then shook his head. He looked at Xia Huai with a weird expression, this person was able to see that there was an immortal in Xia Mu's body, this was something he was not curious about.
"Celestial Gate?"
"Other people ask me if my Door of Immortality is fruitless, but if you ask me, I will naturally tell you. Because you can open the Door of Immortality, the person inside you also saw this, so he chose to stay in your body."
At the same time, he also revealed that he did not have any malicious intent because Ye Ling was his hope. As long as there was a sliver of a chance for him to return to the Immortal World, he would not choose to give up.
"Senior, are you exaggerating?"
"If even Immortals can't open the Door of Immortality, how can I do it?"
Ye Ling frowned, what Xia Huai said surprised him a little. He did not even know what the gate of immortality was, much less open the gate of immortality.
"You don't have to worry about that."
This is fate. I am nearing my end, and I only have a little bit of magic power left, so I need to wait for your help. The Door of Immortality is in the Nine Dragons Heavens.
Xia Huai did not want to point it out, because the time was not right yet. It was also to prevent Ye Ling from getting implicated too early, so he only said a few words.
When Ye Ling heard this, his heart felt like it had been struck by lightning. The locust tree in front of him was actually burnt out by oil, this made him feel that it was inconceivable.
Even so, Xia Huai's aura made people's scalps go numb, and the last domain he mentioned was undoubtedly the realm of only daring the Blood God and Zhan Wuji. It was a realm that stood above all living things.
Xia Huai had high expectations for him, so Ye Ling naturally couldn't accept this kind of task. However, when he thought about how the deity in his body had helped him many times, he felt that he didn't want to owe him this favor.
"This is your destiny."
"You can leave now. If you find yourself in a difficult situation, I'll lend you a hand!"
Not allowing Ye Ling to ask any further, Xia Huai who was in front of him directly waved his hand after finishing his piece.
"Hu …!"
A light breeze blew, and Ye Ling's body instantly disappeared.
When Ye Ling realized this, he had actually appeared outside the stone door, while Xia Qingsong had a face full of anger, and was staring at him with wide eyes.
