Chapter 611 - Everlasting Sage
Chapter 611 - Everlasting Sage
After traveling several isolated realms, the teleportation gate brought Jin Rou and Windking to a deserted place where not even a lush of leaves could be seen. The place was all blue in hue.
"Where is this place?" Jin Rou asked Windking. Maybe the other party knew where this place was.
"This..." Windking picked up a grain of sand and studied it, his eyes widened in surprise as he answered, "This is Neverland!"
As someone of this world who lived for so long, of course the old man knew this. Several texts and records had written this place and even dubbed it as one of the legendary places.
"Neverland? What is that?" Jin Rou asked curiously. The qi here was much denser compared to the Upper Immortal and it even had a high comforting rate for everyone..
"Neverland is a place from the legends which said to have the clues to immortality." Windking explained slowly, "According to the ancient records passed down generations to generations, Neverland has the necessary clues to uncover the mysteries of everlasting life. Thus, many old existences tried to trace the place but until now, I never heard of anyone succeeding. Yet now, we are here. This type of sand can only be seen in Neverland, so I assumed immediately that this is that place."
"Necessary clues to gain immortality." Jin Rou had already expected that everyone was seeking for immortality. After all, who wouldn't want to have an eternal life? Perhaps only a few who wanted to live a normal way, "Perhaps that is the reason why Everlasting Sage is here."
"Everlasting Sage is here? Are you sure about that?" Windking thought that they'd be going back.
"Of course, I have a few methods to trace the sage down without me costing too much resources." Jin Rou chuckled, "I am very sure that we are in the right place. As a matter of fact, he is watching us for sure."
Windking couldn't believe it. Everlasting Sage was his long-time idol aside from Windgod who nurtured him until death. The former had lived for billions of years and still could manage to protect the world. His lifetime wish was to meet the sage even for once, and now it's going to happen? The excitement that he never experienced again for so many years came back.
"Let's wait here, he will come for us. After all, this place is supposed to be something that couldn't be entered." Jin Rou sat down and said, "Old man, sit down first."
"How can I, knowing that the great sage is coming on our way?" Windking shook his head.
Jin Rou didn't say anything again and let the old man do what he wanted.
After a few minutes, a spatial crack appeared. Even this crack contained the power that could burn the entire world. Next, a figure slowly appeared of it and revealed a dashing and handsome man.
He was wearing a white robe that complemented his white hair very well. His physical appearance looked like he was only in his mid 30s with a perfect oval shape face. The man's beauty was only below Jin Rou's real appearance.
"Greetings, Friends." The man smiled warmly and spoke, "I don't know why you are here, but you must leave now. This place is not for anybody."
"Are you Everlasting Sage?" Jin Rou ignored what the man said and asked.
The man revealed a serious expression and smiled once again, "That name has been forgotten for so many years now, yet someone still knows it. Indeed, I am Everlasting."
Windking couldn't almost contain his emotions when the other party confirmed his identity. So this was the strongest cultivator of the entire Immortal, the one who protected the world for billions of years.
Jin Rou didn't expect that this man was so approachable despite being a strong and capable being. It looked like he still knew how to be humble even if he has so much power to wield. And that was a plus for Jin Rou.
Furthermore, Jin Rou could feel the intense power radiating within the man. Compared to Mortheus who he fought, the moth overlord was an insect while Everlasting Sage was a real dragon. If say, Jin Rou had a battle against this man, he was still confident of wimning. However, he had to pay a price for it.
No wonder why the Overlords didn't dare to openly provoke Immortal. The world had a protector named Everlasting Sage.
"I am Jin Rou, a mere passerby and this is Windking, one of the ancestors of Wind Gate." Jin Rou introduced themselves.
Everlasting Sage looked at Windking and smiled, "I see, so what have made you brought yourselves here? If it's about the catastrophe, I have already received this gentleman's letter a while ago."
"We just want to meet you. That's all." Jin Rou smirked.
"Tracing back to this place, and entering it without being restricted, I guess this is your doing, Young Daoist Friend." Everlasting Sage had a warm smile on his face, "However, it might have expended so much resources to achieve this. After all, Neverland is a separate and independent realm away from Immortal."
"I only used a few to several of my important resources." Jin Rou smiled also, "Besides, this trip was worth it to see you in person, actually."
Truth be told, if Windking knew how much resources Jin Rou expended to get into this place, he would die in shock. After all, even their treasury couldn't take the price even after accumulating all of their resources together!
Only Everlasting Sage, who had a sufficient knowledge of Neverland, could roughly estimate how much price it was.
"Alright, as you say so." Everlasting Sage said, "While I appreciate it that you two visit me, it's time for you to go. Neverland is never and will never be opened to outsiders."
"You don't have to chase us out so fast. We just came here. I want to have a simple talk with you more about the dao, and after that, we will leave. How about it?" Jin Rou said.
