——This mountain is almost as large as four or five provinces of my hotown!
Moreover, Shen Yu clearly realizes that this mountain is not just that simple on the surface.
The internal space is layered and expansive.
Just standing at the base of the Immortal Mountain, one can feel the waves of Immortal Qi.
It’s mixed with a sacred aura.
Just standing here involuntarily brings a solemn expression upon one’s face.
Compared to Fangcun Mountain seen in the mythical Parallel Universe of the West, this one truly gives Shen Yu the feeling of a grand Immortal Sect.
Rather than just an obscure, hidden Taoist field unknown to ordinary people.
Moreover, Shen Yu quickly realized an even bigger difference.
At the foot of the mountain, there are many individuals from various places, even so with their own cultivation, continuously gathering.
They are all seekers of immortality.
"Indeed." Shen Yu slowly exhaled, "In the Kingdom of Baoxiang, the story of the West is already well-known, so how could they not know that Fangcun Mountain truly exists?"
Even an ordinary person like Shen Yu, who considered this place a mythical story, once fantasized about coming here to seek immortality after hearing the story of that monkey.
Let alone the people of this Primordial World.
So Shen Yu concealed his presence, mingling with the crowd, truly entering this Immortal Mountain.
As soon as he entered, he imdiately realized that it was even busier than he had imagined.
Because, what he saw was surprisingly a city.
A great city!
Small hills are scattered throughout the city, each one is a building, and even so are tall mountains erected among them, forming a continuous range that stretched beyond sight, seemingly endless.
This endless chain of mountains is the city itself.
Shen Yu clearly heard one of the managent, a forty-sixth generation disciple under Bodhi Ancestor, explaining the rules.
All seekers of immortality could receive an Immortal Mountain as their own cultivation dojo and then begin chopping wood to build houses, or even plant and practice alchemy.
But only by eting certain criteria could they stay; otherwise, they had to leave.
Until they reach a certain level, they are not considered formal disciples under Bodhi.
However, they are free to co and go as they please.
But unless they receive the Ancestor’s approval, once they leave, they can never return.
"This is indeed the teacher’s style." Shen Yu nodded slightly, feeling much more at ease in his heart.
In the previous world of the West, the incarnation of Bodhi Ancestor acted similarly.
Many disciples were accepted, but those who truly attained Dao were not many, and even those who reached the level of longevity were very few.
Most could not conquer their inner monkeys, or failed during various tests of the heart, and even perished in numbers.
To all this, Bodhi Ancestor would not intervene much.
It seed he rely provided guidance, leaving the teacher-student relationship intact, while the future depended solely on oneself.
Even Shen Yu was the sa.
He dared not even keep the teacher-student bond real, rely a nominal disciple.
However, realizing that this was still the familiar system, Shen Yu felt much more relaxed.
He thought for a mont; this place was already essentially Bodhi’s dojo, a world unto itself.
Never mind the obscured heavens at this mont; even in the past, Saints would not casually explore the dojo of a Daluo Golden Immortal.
Thus, Shen Yu removed the Gray Mist, no longer concealing his presence.
In that instant, he realized that a faint golden light appeared on his body.
It wasn’t dazzling but extrely noticeable.
Everyone around turned their gaze toward him.
The forty-sixth generation disciple who was explaining the Dao to newcors first looked incredulous, then overjoyed, as if realizing sothing, and rushed over, bowing deeply to Shen Yu.
"Shu Yun pays respects to Martial Uncle!"
Only then did Shen Yu vaguely understand.
This light seems to represent his identity?
He suddenly looked up towards a certain direction.
Several Immortals, also carrying faint golden lights, were flying over from afar.
However, their glow was noticeably dimr than his.
At the sa ti, Shen Yu understood what this light ant.
"Fifth Generation Disciple." He murmured to himself.
Just as he thought, this thing was ant to show seniority!
This filled Shen Yu with an indescribable, strange feeling.
He never expected that Bodhi Ancestor would leave him such a token.
Calling him a nominal disciple, but in reality, it had been silently declared broadly.
Probably, that incarnation of Bodhi Ancestor had already guessed that he would co here one day.
"This is really..." Shen Yu sighed softly in his heart, not knowing what else to say.
However, before the Immortals who seed to be guarding the place could bow down and shout "Martial Uncle," Shen Yu had already soared into the air, flying straight towards the depths of Fangcun Mountain.
The space within Fangcun Mountain was layered, and any place seed like a small world.
Normally, outsiders coming here—even Golden Immortals, let alone Taiyi Golden Immortals—would get lost.
Completely unaware of its endlessness and direction.
However, Shen Yu’s path was extrely smooth.
Wherever he went, all restrictions and arrangents opened up.
As if welcoming his arrival.
Only one person here could achieve this.
——Bodhi Ancestor himself!
Shen Yu finally saw the "Immortal Teacher" fad in the Primordial World after the Great Tribulation of the West, at the core of the place.
His appearance was identical to his incarnation, indistinguishable.
If not for the imnsely enormous straw cushion behind him like a giant mountain, Shen Yu would have doubted whether this was another incarnation.
Nonetheless, since they had now t, Shen Yu did not dwell on it any longer.
"Greetings, teacher." He simply perford a disciple’s salute.
"I shall accept this courtesy then." Bodhi Ancestor laughed heartily, reaching out to help Shen Yu up, "However, only this once, henceforth we shall address each other as friends of Dao."
Shen Yu was slightly taken aback, sowhat puzzled.
"Why does the teacher do this?"
Even if it’s a nominal disciple, it’s still a disciple, but addressing as friends of Dao practically ans even the nominal disciple’s title is no longer needed.
"The previous incarnation probably couldn’t discern your identity and origin." Bodhi Ancestor still chuckled lightly, "But I can tell that the Daoist skills you possess, only a few co from the Primordial World; the rest likely originate outside of this Pan Gu Heaven and Earth."
Shen Yu remained silent.
As expected, he was discovered.
He wasn’t really counting on keeping it hidden anyway.
After all, at the extraordinary level, even a single major stage difference is like a chasm, let alone the two major stages difference between him and the Daluo Golden Immortal, Bodhi Ancestor.
Unless he used the Gray Mist, how could he conceal the extraordinary systems from another Shen Yu?
And using the Gray Mist to hide from such an entity would consu too much of the Gray Mist.
"How does teacher intend to guide ?" In the end, Shen Yu sighed softly, bowing his hands in inquiry.
He didn’t say much, but just this sentence conveyed everything.
He wanted to save the Primordial World.
But he wasn’t sure if the myriad Immortals and Buddhas truly wished to save this world.
Or did they simply want to use his existence to explore beyond this world?
This was Shen Yu’s greatest concern and hesitation.
"Heaven and Earth have order; do you know the reason?" Bodhi Ancestor did not directly answer but asked a question in return.
Shen Yu contemplated this question for a long ti before he slowly responded.
"Because the Heavenly Dao has order."
"Indeed." Bodhi Ancestor chuckled lightly, "Ever since the opening of heaven and earth, the beginning of chaos, the Heavenly Dao has existed. It is the innate order; all things born thereafter follow this order. Since you understand this, why ask ?"
Shen Yu was speechless for a while.
He looked directly at the Daluo Golden Immortal before him, unreserved.
