The other party's original attitude was relatively kind, but after Li Fan raised this question, his face changed slightly.
"Hehe, fellow daoist, I'm afraid you heard it wrong. I don't know the place where I first preached!" He quickly waved his hand, as if you have found the wrong person.
Without waiting for Li Fan's response, he flew straight into the distance.
The speed is so fast that it is even better than the ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.
Li Fan finally met an insider, how could he let the clue slip away like this.
Immediately followed quickly, but did not follow too closely, but hung far behind.
At the same time, the sound transmission continued: "Fellow Daoist, don't get me wrong, I have no malicious intentions. I am just very interested in what you just said."
Instead of replying, the person in front sped up a little, trying to get rid of Li Fan.
Li Fan always followed closely behind, persevering in his persuasion.
After a full half day, the other party finally stopped gradually when he saw that he couldn't get rid of Li Fan.
Looking around, he saw no one around, and his face was uncertain.
After hesitating for a while, he whispered just now: "This is not a place to talk, fellow Taoist, come with me!"
Li Fan smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "That's it, thank you fellow Taoist in advance!"
Follow this person, all the way west, after flying hundreds of miles, dive into the bottom of the sea.
Came to a building like a crystal palace.
Inviting Li Fan to sit down in a room deep in the cave, the other party sighed slightly: "It's not that I didn't want to tell you earlier, it's because I'm afraid that disaster will come out of my mouth!"
"How do you call fellow daoist?" Li Fan nodded, not in a hurry to get to the bottom of it, but first asked the other party's name.
"I'm here, Sima Changkong!" The other party waved his hand, and unexpectedly a servant with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish appeared.
After pouring two cups of tea for the two of them, he bowed and stepped back.
Li Fan couldn't help casting a glance at the servant.
"It's just a beast species. It's a personal hobby that made fellow Taoists laugh!" Sima Changkong said without changing his expression after taking a sip of his drink.
"Beast species..." Li Fan's eyes flickered.
Those half-beast and half-human bones that were found in Mr. Bai's basement in Ningyuan City were also called by Senior Brother Zhang.
I thought it was extinct, but I didn't expect to see it now.
However, Li Fan didn't have any intention of complaining, he just nodded slightly to bring the topic back on track.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, right..." Sima Changkong explained Li Fan's externally revealed avatar identity.
"Now in my private mansion, I can speak freely."
"Do you know why Wanxian Island is called Wanxian Island?"
Sima Changkong asked.
Li Fan also had doubts about this issue.
Because the Tiancheng of each state is named after the state.
Such as Daoyuan City, Stone Lin City, Sky Fortune City and so on.
But only the residence of Congyunhai is not called Congyun City or Island, but Ten Thousand Immortals Island.
However, he also checked the classics, but found no special records, so for a long time, he only thought it was a common name.
Now it seems that there seems to be another secret here.
"I would like to hear the details." Li Fan looked solemn and listened carefully.
"A long time ago, when Congyunhai was a plain, there was a big lake."
"There is an island in the lake. In the past, Tianzun preached to everyone for the first time, and it was here."
"At that time, thousands of monks and mortals gathered here to listen to the teachings of the immortal."
"In the end, they all comprehended the immortal law of Tianzun, and achieved the original foundation of the Ten Thousand Immortals League."
Sima Changkong said eloquently.
"Perhaps it was under the protection of Heavenly Venerable, but the mountains and rivers have changed, and the sea has changed, but this island has never been easy to take shape."
"Thousands of years later, when the Ten Thousand Immortals League was established, when choosing the location of the state city, this island was chosen in order to express respect for Chuanfa Tianzun."
"To some extent, it is not an exaggeration to say that this island is the origin of the League of Ten Thousand Immortals. That's why everyone calls it [Island of Ten Thousand Immortals]."
Sima Changkong explained the ins and outs to Li Fan concisely, took a deep drink of a cup of tea, and looked at Li Fan secretly.
Li Fan carefully savored the meaning of Sima Changkong's words, and frowned slightly: "Since it is the origin of the Ten Thousand Immortals League and the place where the Tianzun first taught the law, why is it so few people know now?"
“It’s even hard to find relevant information.”
"Not only that, but he was negligent and was taken away directly?"
Li Fan shook his head, as if he didn't quite believe Sima Changkong's words.
Sima Changkong let out a long sigh: "That's why I didn't want to say more before."
He paused and was silent for a moment.
Afterwards, he said frankly in a low voice: "Tens of thousands of ancestors sacrificed their lives to spread the new law of Tianzun. This is the foundation of today's Ten Thousand Immortals League."
"This was originally a heroic cause worthy of a special mention, and it is now remembered by all monks."
"But now it is cold-treated, even sealed."
"The reason is that Tianzun has not been born for many years. And the people who control the power of the Ten Thousand Immortals League today are no longer the original tens of thousands of Dharma preachers."
Sima Changkong drank the remaining tea and said, "The dispute between the old and new laws is actually more tragic than we imagined. The former sect, facing the existence that could shake their own rule, naturally would not be stingy with their hands." Butcher knife."
"The true and pure preachers almost all died in the struggle against the original sect."
"The ones who are living now are just the little ones who steal the power of the heavenly lord."
There was a hint of disdain in Sima Changkong's tone.
……
Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly.
This reason is barely acceptable.
In mortal dynasties, it is nothing new that the image of the heroes of the previous generation is forgotten or even distorted due to the change of power.
This principle still exists in the realm of cultivating immortals.
"Being able to go through vicissitudes without changing its shape. This Wanxian Island may indeed hide some secrets."
"And the Ten Thousand Immortals must have searched carefully before, and couldn't find anything, so they ignored it."
"But the Five Elders' Association got some news recently. That's why they took the risk of a full-scale war and captured Wanxian Island."
The thoughts in Li Fan's mind turned sharply.
Not long after, he looked at Sima Changkong who was still secretly aggrieved, and asked again: "Fellow Daoist Sima, you seem to know quite a lot about the secrets of the Ten Thousand Immortals League."
"However, according to what you said, the symbolic meaning of Wanxian Island seems to be greater than its actual value."
"It seems that it is not worth taking such a big risk on the Five Elders' Association, and kidnapping them by force? I don't know what the fellow Taoists think about this?"
Sima Changkong's face became serious.
He thought for a moment, then said slowly, "I have an idea."
"Because the original preachers practiced extremely fast, their concepts and habits are quite similar to ordinary people."
"After a mortal dies, there is a saying that fallen leaves return to their roots."
"So back then, after the preachers died in the battle with the Immortal Dao Sect, the remaining bones were often sent back to Wanxian Island by their companions for burial."
