Chapter 42 Strange Dream
Everyone got off the flying boat one by one, and the flying boat turned around and flew out of the hill.
It turned out that this flying boat was here to transport the mined red copper ore back to Cangli Island. Ling Youdao and others just took a smooth sailing boat.
"I've met the third elder."
"Well, you should take them to rest first."
"yes."
Everyone followed the clan uncle and arrived in front of a row of cave houses.
"Choose one of your own."
After hearing this, everyone immediately stepped forward to occupy a cave. Only Ling Youdao, Ling Youxian, and Ling Yourong stood behind and did not move. After the others had almost occupied the cave, the three of them each chose a cave.
"Now the cave is still ownerless. You put your identity tokens on it twice, the first time to recognize the owner, and the second time to open the cave's restrictions.
After you leave, the family will take back the cave, and the next time it needs to be used, it will need to recognize its owner."
Everyone quickly took out their identity tokens. Ling Youdao stuck the token in his hand on the stone door of the cave, and a faint yellow light appeared on the stone door.
He took off his identity token, and the yellow light disappeared again.
He pasted the token on the stone door of the cave again, like throwing a stone in the water, causing a circle of waves to spread around.
Immediately afterwards, the closed stone door of the cave slowly rose.
Ling Youdao accepted the token and as soon as he walked into the cave, the stone door of the cave slowly fell.
The top of the cave is inlaid with a luminous bead, which illuminates the entire cave as if it were daylight.
The furnishings inside are very simple. There is a stone bed in the depth and a futon in the center. Other than that, there is nothing else.
Ling Youdao also felt a little tired. He walked to the depths of the cave and lay down on the stone bed with his clothes on.
Soon, he entered into a dream...
…
"It's this dream again, this place again."
He was in a vast and boundless space. Most of the surrounding area was pitch black, but there were countless light spots scattered in this darkness, just like the universe of the earth.
There was a river under Ling Youdao's feet, but it was not a river, because what was flowing inside was not water, but bundles of things like light.
This river meanders in space, with no idea where its head is and where its tail is, as if it comes from the void and flows back to the void.
The surrounding stars are shining, and paired with this "Milky Way", it is really beautiful.
However, Ling Youdao had already passed the initial excitement and curiosity. At this moment, he only felt extremely boring.
He sat directly in the void. After a while, he simply lay down, his left leg arched, his right leg resting on his left leg, and he shook it.
"Just wait, it will be fine when it gets daylight."
…
Suddenly a bell rang in the silent cave, and Ling Youdao jumped up from the stone bed.
He looked around and said, "I woke up from my dream."
The bell in the cave was still ringing, and Ling Youdao reacted.
"There's someone outside."
He immediately jumped off the stone bed and walked to the stone door of the cave. With a wave of his sleeves, the stone door of the cave was opened.
Standing outside was the clan uncle who had led them here yesterday, with a light yellow light curtain between them.
"Uncle Clan."
The middle-aged man nodded, "The third elder asked you to come to the meeting hall."
After that, he headed towards the next cave.
Ling Youdao opened the restriction and walked out of the cave. The sun had already risen above the sea level. Birds were chirping all around. The humidity between heaven and earth was very high. The dewdrops rolled from the roots to the ends of the leaves, stayed for a while, and then dripped.
On the ground.
People kept coming out of the cave, and soon everyone gathered together and followed the clan uncle who came to deliver the message to the meeting hall.
With the blessing of the light body technique, everyone rushed through Lin Yuesuo and rushed outside the meeting hall in just over thirty breaths.
"Report to the third elder, people have been brought here."
"Well, let them in."
The middle-aged man turned around and said, "The third elder lets you in."
Hearing this, everyone filed in.
They saw many seats placed in the meeting hall, and Ling Jiexin was sitting at the top of the lobby.
He waved his hand and said, "You all find a seat and sit down."
"yes."
After everyone sat down, Ling Jiexin slowly asked: "How was your rest last night?"
Someone said: "Very good."
Hearing this, Ling Jiexin smiled and said: "It's good to have a good rest. In the next few years, you will rarely have such good opportunities."
Many people's expressions froze, knowing that something bad was coming.
But I heard Ling Jiexin say: "I have always believed that an eagle cannot grow in a greenhouse. Only after experiencing wind and rain can it soar between heaven and earth and overlook all living beings."
The same is true for us cultivators. If we receive too much protection, it will be difficult for us to grow into independent talents.
Only by integrating into the world of immortality, contacting all kinds of immortality cultivators, and going through all kinds of hardships can you make your path to immortality go further."
Regardless of whether what Ling Jiexin said was correct or not, everyone responded in unison: "What the third elder said is true."
"For more than five hundred years, I, the Cangli Ling family, have protected the younger generations more than other immortal cultivating families. Although this has prevented too many children from dying prematurely, it has also made the children of the Cangli Ling family lack the murderous nature, unlike other families.
When monks from a family fight, they often suffer.
Therefore, I have been committed to changing some of the existing systems in my family. I hope that you will be exposed to the outside world from an early age and receive training from the outside world.
Although this is cruel, the world of immortality is inherently a cruel world, and you cannot avoid it."
Ling Youdao agreed very much with what he said. In the earth's previous life, society was a big dye vat. It was really difficult for students who had just left school to adapt. Many people encountered obstacles everywhere.
What's more, this is a world where there is no law and strength is the principle!
"I have made a bet with Yuan Xiang. I will be responsible for training the talented generation, and he will be responsible for training the fixed generation. In order to win, I will never let you have an easy time in the past few years."
Ling Youdao, "..."
"There will definitely be some among you who will stay in this sea forever. If you don't want to stay here forever, then go and adapt to the world of immortality."
He suddenly changed the subject, of course, "The more outstanding any of you are, the more attention you will receive from me. If you receive attention from the family, you will naturally have more cultivation resources. Even the Foundation Establishment Pill is not impossible...
"
"hiss!"
"You can actually get the Foundation Establishment Pill?"
"Although it's only possible, it's still better than before."
…
Ling Jiexin signaled everyone to be quiet, "Your mission is to be stationed on the island."
Seeing that some people didn't take it seriously, he warned: "Don't take it lightly. This station on the island is very dangerous."
"The people of Fufeng Qian's family cross the border every day, killing people and occupying the island, as well as monsters, wandering cultivators, etc. You can ask for help from Yellow Crab Island, but you must have the strength to persist until support arrives.
We are weak, and even if support arrives, we can only collect your bodies for you."
Ling Jiexin ignored everyone's comments and continued: "Of course, if you have enough strength and courage, you can also go to Fufeng Qian's territory to seize resources. I will make the decision for you."
