The Mortal Immortal
Chapter 1166: The hunchbacked old man
Shu Han jumped up high, and the entire Maha Island appeared in front of their eyes.
It was the first time for An An to fly into the air. Not only was she not afraid, she was also extremely excited. She would do something like running in the air, then like a bird flying, and her big eyes almost turned into crescent moons when she smiled.
Soon, under An An's guidance, Shu Han saw a flat mountain plain among the mountains, where a medium-sized village was gathered, with seemingly hundreds of households.
These hundreds of households were distributed in a disc shape around the center. With Shu Han's eyesight, he could clearly see the direction of the array pattern. Hundreds of families live in a large formation like this.
According to An An, this formation is used to resist the demons that reverse the world. Since the formation was built, the number of demon attacks on people has dropped significantly, and people have become more at ease.
Shu Han adjusted his posture in the air and took An An to land towards the village. Soon the two of them drew an arc in the air and landed steadily in front of the village with a roar. Hearing the news, people in the village took out pieces of precious mirrors of the same style and gathered from all over the village.
"What's wrong? What happened!"
"Is that demon attacking?"
"Quick! Activate the formation and strengthen defense!"
The people in the village shouted to each other and quickly gathered at the edge of the village. Young faces were holding precious mirrors to look at Shu Han who was holding An An.
"An'an! Come here quickly!"
"Who is he! Is he the incarnation of the devil?"
At this time, two little ones squeezed out of the crowd, a boy and a girl. When they saw Shu Han holding An An, they burst into tears.
"Sister! Sister!"
"Ouch! Don't eat sister!"
Seeing the two little ones crying, An An hurriedly got off Shu Han's arms, ran to the two babies, held one in each hand, and kept comforting them. The two babies were quickly coaxed into laughing and crying in An An's arms, but they still held on to An An's clothes tightly, for fear that An An would be taken away by Shu Han.
"An'an! What's going on!"
"who is he?"
"Why did you fall from the sky?"
The people in the village were wary of questioning An An. An An quickly waved her hands and kept explaining to Shu Han. However, the atmosphere in the village was very conservative. Everyone listened to An An's explanation and showed disbelief, and their vigilance towards Shu Han remained undiminished.
Facing the hostility of the island residents, Shu Han was not anxious. He looked at the group of people calmly. Most of these people are very young, most of them are in their early teens and have alchemy cultivation. There are also many Nascent Soul cultivators, some of whom are in their thirties or forties. What Shu Han wanted to see was not these aborigines, but the Grandpa Du in An An's mouth.
The only late-stage Void Refining monk on the island!
He made such a big movement just now, it is impossible for this late-stage cultivator to not notice it.
In fact, it stands to reason that a monk in the late Void Refining Stage would have the strength of an ordinary early-stage God Transformation at a height like Maha Island. When he landed on Maha Island, this monk in the late stage of refining the void should have discovered it.
Soon, Shu Han felt a powerful aura coming from the crowd.
The crowd respectfully dispersed through a passage, and an old man gradually walked to the front of the crowd holding a jade cane. He hunched his body, looked at Shu Han, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect An An to bring fellow Taoist back, which saves me the trouble of leaving the village to find fellow Taoist."
Then the old man waved his staff and said to the villagers: "Go back. This man is not the incarnation of the devil. He is just an unlucky guy who fell into Maha Island like me." After hearing the old man's words, the villagers instantly gave up their doubts. After looking at Shu Han with curious eyes, they all bowed respectfully to the old man and then went back to their homes.
The old man looked at Shu Han, and Shu Han looked at the old man.
Shu Han discovered that the old man was not pretending to be senile, but that he really had a short life span and was about to die of old age. Moreover, there are no traces of the Tianyuan on the old man's face, which means that he can freely enter and exit the Tianyuan.
A free man who can freely enter and leave the abyss of heaven is trapped on this Maha island and is about to die of old age! Shu Han suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. Is there really no way out of Maha Island? Do I want to die of old age on this Maha Island like the monk in front of me?
"What? Are you scared?"
The old man caught some of Shu Han's mood swings and smiled.
Shu Han bowed: "It's true. This junior is new here, so please give me some guidance from senior."
"It's easy to talk! I haven't seen any outsiders come to this Maha Island for a long time. Young man, what do you call me?"
"My name is Yu Tiancheng!"
An An answered quickly.
The old man touched An An's head with a kind look on his face.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, An'an, take your younger brothers and sisters back. Grandpa Du and this little brother still have something to talk about."
An An nodded, came to Shu Han, took the basket, and said, "Brother Yu, you should have a good chat with Grandpa Du. Grandpa Du knows a lot!" Then An An hummed a little tune and held his hand. Carrying two children with runny noses, they jumped into the village.
The old man reached out to the temple in the center of the village and said, "Young friend Yu, please."
Shu Han followed the old man through the village and walked slowly towards the temple in the center.
The old man walked very slowly, as if he had become accustomed to a mortal life, and he did not look like a monk.
"The junior has not yet asked the senior for his name."
"Stop shouting, senior, senior. You and I are both in the Void Cultivation Stage. According to the rules of the cultivation world, we only need to be friends of equals. I, Du Hongbo, this look makes Fellow Daoist Yu laugh."
Shu Han looked around and saw that every household was taking spiritual fruits to practice, and there were often children playing outside. He couldn't help but ask: "Is this formation the work of the senior? Can this formation really resist the demon that reverses the world?"
"It seems that An An has told you most of the things. That's good, so I don't have to waste my energy to say it again. Yes, this formation was indeed set up by me. As for whether it can resist it... it depends on God's will."
"Depend on God's will?"
"What does this mean?"
The old man said: "Fellow Daoist Yu doesn't really think that I have the ability to stop the demon! To be honest, I have lived on this island for eight hundred years, and I don't know what the demon is. How can I talk about blocking it? This formation is just used to cover up and prevent. If the demon really comes, I can't do anything."
Shu Han thought for a moment. After landing on this island, he did not sense the existence of this village. It should be the concealing effect of this formation. He remembered An An's words and said, "Daoyou Du said that the demon locks its prey based on the fluctuation of mana. As long as the fluctuation of mana is concealed, the demon can try to target it. Is this the principle of this formation?"
The old man nodded.
"Daoyou is a smart man!"
Hearing this answer, Shu Han's heart was lifted again.
This old man has lived on this island for so long, and he only uses this deceptive method to avoid the demon, which means that he seems to have little to do with this island. Shu Han could only ask the question that he was most concerned about in fear.
"Daoyou, do you know how to leave this floating island?"
"I know."
Shu Han was shocked.
"But no one has succeeded."
