This is the true immortal of the Taoist sect.

All the villagers looked in the direction the child was pointing, and sure enough, they saw a dazzling light under the big tree on the top of the hill outside the village.

The light displayed five colors, and was extremely dazzling.

The reflection turned the surrounding sky into a kaleidoscope of colors.

What surprised them even more was that the big tree, which had long since lost all its leaves due to winter, now resembled a huge green canopy, blocking out the sun and covering a large area.

"Honey, there must be treasure there! Go get it..."

A villager suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone immediately realized what was happening and began sprinting towards the top of the low hill.

Almost the entire village, young and old, came out.

Such a miracle, even if one cannot witness it, is a blessing for one's entire life.

But when all the villagers finally climbed the low hill and saw the source of the light, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"Huh? It's a person?"

"There was no treasure at all, it was just a person."

"But... how can a person emit light?"

People began to wonder, and soon an atmosphere of awe spread among them.

It can emit light, bring withered trees back to life, and cure the sick in the village without treatment.

And all the wild animals around were prostrate on the ground, as if they were worshipping.

"This isn't human, this is a deity... a celestial being..."

Finally, someone started to exclaim.

Everyone was startled, their knees went weak, and a large number of them knelt down.

No one dared to speak loudly, for fear of disturbing the immortal and incurring his punishment.

And so, a truly comical scene unfolded at the foot of the hill.

Hundreds of villagers knelt there in neat rows, surrounded by all sorts of wild animals and snakes.

The scene was surprisingly quiet.

All the villagers kneeling here felt some unimaginable changes.

Under the illumination of that five-colored divine light, their bodies seemed to be undergoing some kind of transformation.

Some older people are starting to feel more energetic, and the wrinkles on their skin are fading.

Meanwhile, those in their prime clearly felt that their energy had become more vigorous and their strength seemed to be increasing.

The most significant changes have been seen in the children, who are growing up at an extraordinary pace.

All the villagers felt this change and knew that it was caused by the five-colored divine light emanating from the immortal.

Therefore, no one wanted to leave; everyone wanted to be bathed in this divine light for as long as possible.

In fact, Li Daoxuan saw the whole scene unfold before his eyes.

The reason he didn't interfere was that his cultivation had reached a crucial point, and he didn't want to be distracted.

Secondly, since it can bring some benefits to these villagers and the surrounding plants and trees, let's just let nature take its course.

However, the five-colored divine light was just the power that was released when his cultivation was still unstable after the breakthrough, so this spectacle would not last long.

As time passed, the five-colored divine light on Li Daoxuan's body indeed grew dimmer and dimmer.

The moment the sun set, all the wondrous sights vanished.

The five-colored divine light completely subsided, and Li Daoxuan seemed to have become an ordinary person, sitting there motionless.

But he still did not wake up.

At this moment, his primordial spirit was in a profound state of enlightenment, as if he had merged with heaven and earth, experiencing all things in nature.

Li Daoxuan completely forgot about his surroundings and didn't care about any dangers from the outside world.

He just sat there, like a statue.

As the divine light disappeared, the villagers kneeling on the hill gradually got up and left.

The wild beasts and snakes that had surrounded them dispersed.

If someone were to look down from high above at this moment, they would see a strange sight.

The area within dozens of miles centered on the low mountain where Li Daoxuan was located was full of vitality, just like a spring day.

Outside this circle, however, the land remains desolate and barren, a scene of winter's desolation.

As time went by, the wonders of this place quickly spread.

People came not only from the villages at the foot of the mountain, but also from other villages and towns in the distance.

As more people learn about it, naturally some of them will become highly skilled martial arts practitioners.

However, most martial arts masters would regard this as a charlatan and scoff at it.

However, it will still attract the interest of some people.

As a result, martial arts masters came specifically to observe.

Once they arrived around the low hill, they discovered that the rumors were not unfounded.

After all, even if it were a deception, it would be impossible to make the flowers, plants, and trees within a radius of dozens of miles bloom again in the dead of winter.

Seeing this, all the martial arts masters became excited.

This situation suggests that the rumored low mountain may very well harbor some rare and precious treasures.

In no time, people flocked to try and seize the treasure.

When they climbed the low hill, the first thing they saw was not some treasure, but a ground covered with offerings of incense and candles.

Looking further ahead, you can see Li Daoxuan sitting cross-legged under the big tree.

After some inquiries, it was discovered that Li Daoxuan had been sitting there for half a month without moving.

Some observant people noticed that despite sitting there for so long, Li Daoxuan remained clean and tidy, without a speck of dust, and the fallen leaves did not stick to him.

The grass beneath him was particularly lush, with clusters of unidentified wildflowers blooming.

Li Daoxuan sat cross-legged amidst the blooming flowers, looking serene, as if he were having a sweet nap.

Seeing this, the group of martial arts practitioners couldn't help but feel uneasy and dared not make any rash moves.

"Do you think this person might be a master?"

"He doesn't look like it... Could he be dead?"

"It seems I can't sense his presence..."

As they talked, they began to encourage others to step forward and test the waters.

A bald, burly man volunteered to step forward and take a look.

A villager immediately intervened, saying:

"No, we mustn't disturb the immortals..."

The bald, burly man was already feeling uneasy, and his shout startled him.

He turned around and slapped the villager who was trying to stop him, knocking him to the ground and breaking half of his teeth.

"Get lost, what kind of bullshit immortal are you? You're just playing tricks..."

The burly man continued forward and stopped about half a zhang away from Li Daoxuan.

"Hey, wake up..."

The burly man shouted loudly.

Li Daoxuan remained motionless.

The bald, burly man glanced back at the group of martial arts practitioners who had come with him, chuckled, and continued to speak sternly to Li Daoxuan:

"Didn't I tell you to get up? What kind of charlatan are you? What are you doing sitting here?"

Li Daoxuan remained motionless.

The burly man's face darkened. He stepped forward, pointed at Li Daoxuan's nose, and cursed:

"You son of a bitch, I told you to get up. I'll count to three, and if you don't get up, I'll smash your head in..."

"one..."

"two..."

Li Daoxuan remained motionless.

The villagers nearby had already knelt down, kowtowing repeatedly, and muttering: "Forgive us, forgive us, immortals, it's not our fault..."

Seeing that Li Daoxuan still did not react, the bald, burly man's face turned fierce, his thick arm was already raised, his fist clenched so tightly it cracked, and he roared:

"three..."

"boom..."

The moment the bald, burly man shouted "three," a surge of energy erupted, producing a deep, booming sound.

Those standing not far away all felt a chill run down their spines, an instant tingling sensation on their scalps.

The bald, burly man stood still, fist raised, motionless.

The group looked at each other, bewildered, wondering what had happened.

The burly man's companion quickly shouted:

"Zheng San, what's wrong? Make your move..."

The burly man remained unresponsive, just like Li Daoxuan sitting under the tree, motionless.

"Zheng San..."

His companion called out again.

Just then, a gentle breeze blew by.

It brushed past the flowers and grass, and also swept over Zheng San's body.

In an instant, everyone was stunned, their eyes wide open, filled with unbelievable fear.

Zheng San's body, like a handful of sand, drifted away in the breeze and vanished into nothingness...
