Outside the stone gate of the cave, it was quiet.
The figures standing outside, holding weapons and gathering their abilities, looked in astonishment at the old man and the young man who were bowing to each other inside. After hearing the whole sentence, their brains became rigid and they looked at each other. It took them a long time to recover from the shock.
"Who is this... old man? Why have I never seen him before?"
"I've been here for seven or eight years, and I've never seen this passage, let alone people."
"... Then... the immortal master who just called the young man... can't he really be an immortal?"
"It could also be a code name... maybe he has special abilities and lives longer... Yeah... probably like that."
…
Amid the uneasy and uncertain whispers, they gradually put down their weapons. It was not difficult to tell who was an enemy or a friend. At least the other party did not come with hostility.
The light of the flickering torches in the cave gradually became brighter. The old man standing in front of the young man took a half step back and looked carefully at the young face with his aged face.
"Xian..."
The hoarse and weak words were not finished. Lu Liangsheng raised his hand to interrupt the voice. His eyes were red and faintly watery. He held the old man's hand and tightened it.
"Brother, please stop calling me Immortal Master. You have worked hard for the past thousand years. Come, I will comb your body and restore your youthful appearance!"
These words made the people outside the door's hair stand on end in shock. Immortality has always been a legend. Even if some people with special abilities have such abilities, they are very rare, and they can only guarantee immortality for themselves. From what the other party said, it seems that he can give others an ageless face and body.
The security team leader's heart was pounding, knowing that this was the most unbelievable secret in the history of Z6, and he hurried to get everyone out, but they were not willing to listen. They huddled together and stood in front of the crack in the stone door, staring inside without blinking.
Everyone's heart was pounding wildly, especially the female with special abilities. Her breathing became urgent. She clung to the shoulders of the person in front of her and stood on tiptoe to look through the gap. In the bright firelight, two figures were walking up to the stone platform, one in front and one behind.
Lu Liangsheng held the hand of the elderly man behind him and slowly walked up the stone steps. When they reached the Bagua formation, Yin Yang Fish let go of his hand and let Sun Yingxian sit down cross-legged.
"Old Sun, close your eyes and ignore everything you feel." As he said this, the scholar walked behind the old man, stretched out his fingertips and touched the back of his head with sparse white hair. A light blue light lit up and spread along his fingertips to the back of his neck and spine. Lu Liangsheng looked serious, and he retracted his fingertips and covered Sun Yingxian's head with his palm. Light instantly poured down on his forehead.
"The divine consciousness follows my divine power."
The old man did not answer, but nodded as much as possible. He only felt the magic power flowing down the back of his neck. Inside the gray robe, it was like the roots of a tree, and many tiny magic patterns were divided towards his ribs and both sides of his waist, wrapping his whole body in light.
In an instant, his body stiffened suddenly, and Lao Sun's breathing became heavy and powerful. The magic patterns on his back pulled at his flesh and bones, and expanded and contracted with his breathing, extending into his body and probing into the slowly beating heart in his chest.
… The moment when divine power touches.
The heart suddenly emitted a faint blue light, and its contraction became stronger and stronger, and the blood flowed smoothly. Then, the lungs, liver, spleen, stomach... all the internal organs were rejuvenated, shedding their original obsolescence and becoming fresh and powerful.
On the Bagua formation, Lu Liangsheng pressed his palm downwards again, divine light shone brightly from his palm, and Sun Yingxian, who was sitting cross-legged on the Yin-Yang fish, did not move. Suddenly, her loose robe gradually stretched out, and there was a crackling sound all over her body. Her wrinkled skin began to straighten, and the back of her hand that was exposed outside the sleeve, which was covered with age spots, disappeared on the skin, and a layer of sticky black liquid was secreted.
In more than one place, almost all of his clothes were soaked with sweat and dirt from his skin, as if he had been soaked in water. Sun Yingxian's eyelids trembled, and he felt as if countless ants were crawling all over his body, or a burning pain came from his bones and joints. He wanted to open his eyes, but he heard Lu Liangsheng's voice shouting in his ears: "Don't move! Hold on!"
Sun Yingxian closed her eyes again, enduring all the pains coming from every part of her body. With her legs crossed and her buttocks sitting on the ground, she could feel streams of water seeping into the ground, emitting a foul smell.
However, the people watching this scene at the mountain gate had different feelings.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, I watched the hunched and shrunken old man on the platform grow taller and straighten his back little by little. His originally pale hair fell out one by one, and dense black spots grew rapidly from his pores, turning into a lush black hair that hung down to his shoulders. The white beard around his chin flew away in the breeze, and a tuft of short, dense black beard grew on his bald chin. His cheeks changed from thin to plump in middle age, and then to a pointed face.
A group of people huddled together outside the door. Even the security team leader was mixed in the crowd. After watching the entire process from old man to young man, a word popped up in everyone's mind almost at the same time.
Rejuvenation!
In one’s life, when one is young, one does not know how precious time is. But as one grows older, many people want to go back to the best age and start over again.
Seeing this ability, the crowd outside became even more crowded, and there were even two women screaming in pain and a man roaring.
"Don't squeeze in the back, it's so uncomfortable—"
"Who wants to squeeze in? I don't know which bastard is pushing me from behind! Ouch... I can't stand it anymore, I can't stand it anymore."
…
Inside the cave entrance, the circulating breeze carried away the foul smell. In the flickering light of the torches on the cave wall, Lu Liangsheng withdrew his divine power, walked to the side of the sitting figure and squatted down. Looking at the once familiar face under the disheveled hair, he chuckled and reached out to pat Sun Yingxian on the shoulder.
"Haha... That's enough. Open your eyes and get up."
The cool breeze blew across her tightly closed eyes, and her eyelashes trembled. Sun Yingxian heard the words and slowly opened her eyes. The scholar's smiling face was reflected in her eyes. She smiled as well, but suddenly her smile froze. She quickly jumped up from the ground, unbuttoned her robe and belt, unzipped her trousers and took a look inside. Only then did a look of satisfaction appear on her face.
“This is back too… It’s comfortable.”
Immediately, he touched his face with his hand, ran down the platform with wet steps, and found a rusty bronze mirror from an iron cabinet next to him. He waved his finger and the rust on the mirror flew away. He held the mirror against his face and looked at it back and forth, muttering to himself as he walked.
"Mr. Lu... you should make it look better."
“This is what I think looks best.”
Lu Liangsheng looked at him. The Taoist looked at himself when he was young in the mirror and started laughing. He turned around, hugged the scholar and patted him twice.
"I think so, too."
Boom!
The stone door over there finally couldn't bear the pressure anymore and was pushed open. Everyone pushed and swarmed out and rolled to the ground.
Lu Liangsheng looked at the Taoist priest, and the latter looked back at him. The two touched hands, half-raised them and clasped them tightly together, looked at each other, and suddenly burst into laughter.
Hahaha…
… Ha ha.
I felt so happy that I couldn't express it in words!
