Bab 4: What is that?
In the heavens above, Chen Su rode his sword, carrying Ye Tian towards Qingcheng Mountain.
The cold wind whistled in Ye Tian's ears, making him feel slightly dazed.
Now his headache was gone, and Chen Su in his eyes appeared normal like any other person.
After dealing with the yellow weasel spirit, Chen Su cleaned the blood and wounds off his body, returning to his elegant and otherworldly appearance.
Everything that had happened before seemed like a dream to Ye Tian, highly unreal.
"Teacher..."
Ye Tian shook his head, still not fully adjusted to his identity change.
As a modern person, suddenly being transported to such a bizarre world and becoming the disciple of someone whose identity was unclear, it all felt very surreal.
Under Chen Su's guidance, mountains and rivers passed beneath their feet, and a large mountain appeared before their eyes. The two broke through the clouds and flew towards the peak, and a massive temple quickly came into view for Ye Tian.
It was more like an enormous sect than a temple.
The entire sect stood tall on Qingcheng Mountain, which towered into the clouds, and its enormous architectural complex suggested that the sect had at least a thousand members.
At this late hour, everyone was cultivating and resting in their rooms, with only two disciples in Taoist robes standing guard at the gate.
Seeing Chen Su descend with Ye Tian, they both bowed respectfully.
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
"You've worked hard. These are my newly accepted disciples. Take them somewhere to rest. I will summon them tomorrow."
Chen Su waved his hand, indicating that they should rise, and instructed them to take Ye Tian to rest properly.
Then he disappeared on the spot.
Watching Chen Su leave so abruptly, Ye Tian was taken aback for a moment before regaining his composure and greeting the guard disciples respectfully.
"Hello, I'm Ye Tian."
The two disciples looked at Ye Tian with deep meaning in their eyes, and one of them spoke up.
"Brother Ye, follow me."
Ye Tian pondered over their use of the term "brother" for a moment before following them.
Soon, they arrived at a simple but neatly kept meditation room in front of a Danfang.
"Brother Ye, this is the meditation room for inner disciples. Please rest here and meditate. Someone will call for you tomorrow."
Listening to the introduction of the Qingcheng Sect disciple, Ye Tian politely thanked them and closed the door, locking it behind him. He carefully observed the layout of the room.
The meditation room was sparsely furnished, with only a stone bed, a stone table, and two stone chairs.
There were no blankets or anything else.
However, the room seemed to be filled with abundant spiritual energy, giving Ye Tian a refreshing and comfortable feeling throughout his body.
"This must be the special feature of this meditation room."
Ye Tian carefully inspected the meditation room several times, confirming that there were no special mechanisms before lying down on the stone bed with his clothes on.
His thoughts were swirling, and he began to recall everything that had happened today.
Simplistically, it seemed like Chen Su had come down the mountain to accept him as a disciple due to his immaculate physical body.
But the bizarre and hallucinatory scenes that had appeared during his headache made Ye Tian feel uneasy whenever he recalled them.
"Is this world really filled with evil spirits, as I have seen?"
"Or are they just illusions caused by my headache?"
During the three years on Niutou Mountain, his headaches often occurred, especially when he went out to work in the fields, and he would often see monsters flying across the sky.
He didn't know what those monsters represented before, but now he realized that they might be cultivators from this world.
But why did he see cultivators as evil spirits during his headaches, and why did they appear in different forms?
Or, is it that my headache is not a disease, but my special ability?
"What I see is the truth of this world's existence!"
As soon as this thought crossed his mind, Ye Tian shook his head repeatedly, with a look of horror in his eyes.
If this were true, how could an ordinary person like him survive in such a world filled with evil spirits?
But once this thought arose, it lingered in his mind, haunting him like a demon andYe Tian.
He took a deep breath to calm his emotions and made up his mind.
"Regardless of what happens, at least for now, the Sect Master of Qingcheng Mountain poses no threat to me. Otherwise, I would not have been able to walk out alive today."
"Whether he has genuine good intentions or ulterior motives, at least I am safe for the time being."
"For now, I'll just have to take one step at a time!"
With his mind made up, Ye Tian worked hard to calm his feelings and slowly closed his eyes.
...
"Brother Ye! Brother Ye! Wake up!"
Early in the morning, knocking sounds could be heard outside Ye Tian's meditation room door, and urgent voices calling out to him.
Ye Tian was startled awake from his sleep and quickly got dressed, pushing the door open.
Outside the door stood a plump disciple in a Taoist robe, smiling brightly.
Seeing the person, Ye Tian unconsciously said, "You are..."
Sensing the hesitation in Ye Tian's tone, the disciple eagerly spoke up.
"Oh, Brother Ye, right? My name is Zhou Yun. I'm an inner disciple of our Qingcheng Sect. I've been instructed by the Sect Master to take you to the Chaoyun Hall for the disciple acceptance ceremony."
"Thank you, Brother Zhou, for your trouble."
As a time traveler, Ye Tian quickly accepted his identity and, under Zhou Yun's guidance, began walking towards the Chaoyun Hall.
Along the way, Zhou Yun was incredibly enthusiastic towards Ye Tian.
"Brother Ye, is this your first time coming to Qingcheng Mountain? What do you think? Is it scenic and beautiful?"
"It was dark, so I couldn't see clearly..."
"What did you think when you first saw me? Did I look like an immortal?"
"Somewhat, but not entirely..."
"Brother Ye seems to be a bit shy. You don't know, everyone in the Qingcheng Sect is envious this morning. They say that the Sect Master personally came down the mountain to accept a disciple, and everyone is so jealous!"
"Can you tell me why the Sect Master would want to accept you as a disciple?"
"..."
Despite Zhou Yun's enthusiasm, Ye Tian only answered some of his questions, and when there were too many, he just smiled and nodded along.
Before long, Zhou Yun led Ye Tian to a magnificent and splendid hall, with a long white jade staircase leading up to it. Beneath the golden roof and red doors, four enormous stone pillars stood on both sides, carved with mythical creatures that Ye Tian had never seen before.
"We're here."
"The disciple acceptance ceremony for Brother Ye can only be witnessed by the elders within the sect. I'm afraid I can't accompany you inside, Brother Zhou."
"Thank you for everything, Brother Zhou." Ye Tian politely thanked him before thinking of something and turning to look at Zhou Yun. "By the way, Brother Zhou, shouldn't the main hall of a Taoist temple usually be called the Sanqing Hall? Why is ours called the Chaoyun Hall?"
Listening to Ye Tian's question, Zhou Yun's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Sanqing? What is that?"
"Never mind, thank you, Brother Zhou."
After receiving Zhou Yun's response, Ye Tian had his own thoughts.
As someone who practiced the Tao, he didn't recognize Sanqing.
It seemed that the cultivation system in this world might be different from what he had previously known through novels. He couldn't rely solely on his past experiences to understand this world.
Since he was already here, he decided to go inside and take a look!
With that in mind, Ye Tian took a deep breath, raised his foot, and stepped into the Chaoyun Hall.
