Chapter 1744

Ten years ago, Fang Yuan visited Luo Sect.

And ten years later, Gu Chen came here as well.

They met at the same place at different times. The one who noticed this was the great prophet.

"The same face, the same anomaly in the lake of life, the Old Man could more or less guess what was going on. It seems that we are friends and not enemies. "The great prophet sighed.

Gu Chen's gaze flickered, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, this news came too suddenly.

A moment later, he regained his senses, he looked at the Sacred Island with a deeper gaze.

"Since we are friends, aren't you going to invite me to the island?" His tone became calm again.

Fang Yuan's conflict with Luo Sect made him truly interested in this great prophet, he wanted to know what he wanted to do.

"Friend, you have already shown your true appearance to the Old Man, if the Old Man continues to hide, would he still have any sincerity?"

"Please!"

The moment the great prophet said that, a path of light appeared under Gu Chen's feet, it crossed the lake and reached the Sacred Island!

Gu Chen saw this and left, he arrived at the Sacred Island in a few steps, there were no more obstructions.

This Sacred Island was smaller than he had imagined, other than a few wooden houses, there was nothing else on the island, it was truly a shabby place.

An old man with white hair and a long white beard stood at the end of the path of light, he welcomed Gu Chen with a smile.

"Before we talk as friends, I want to see Yuan Jie."

The Sacred Island was very small, he could tell at a glance that Fang Shijie was not here. Gu Chen said coldly.

What the great prophet said earlier was only his side of the story, although he believed it, he needed the great prophet to show more sincerity.

And Fang Shijie was the best sincerity.

Only if Fang Shijie was unharmed and gave a friendly judgment to this great prophet, could the two continue their discussion.

"Friend, you don't need to worry about Yuan Jie's safety, he has a deep relationship with our sect, the Old Man will not harm him." The great prophet knew.

Gu Chen squinted, hearing this great prophet's tone, he seemed to know about Fang Shijie's background.

Did Fang Shijie tell him of his own accord?

Without his consent, he didn't think that Fang Shijie would do such a risky thing.

In that case, the Great Prophet had guessed it himself?

Gu Chen felt that the Great Prophet was more and more scheming, but he still said the same thing. "I want to see Yuan Jie."

The Great Prophet did not say anything else. He stroked his beard and glanced behind Gu Chen.

Noticing his gaze, Gu Chen turned around and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Behind him was the vast sacred lake, but the scenery before him had changed.

The Sacred Lake was still there, but the lake water now reflected a different scene. It seemed to be daytime, and there was another lake under the daytime.

One had to know that the entire Sacred Lake had been sealed off by the fog and it was nighttime. How could the lake water reflect such a scene?

The reflection of the lake and the sacred lake, one yin and one yang, one bright and one dark, complemented each other on the outside and inside. It was truly strange.

"This is the Life Lake?"

Recalling what the Great Prophet had said before, Gu Chen guessed.

The Great Prophet did not deny it.

Gu Chen immediately clicked his tongue in wonder. Before setting foot on the Sacred Island, he had not sensed anything special about the Sacred Lake. Once he set foot on the island, such a phenomenon had occurred. There were indeed many things in the Primordial Dao World that he could not understand.

He carefully looked at the Life Lake. The Life Lake had an attractive quality, as if it could immerse one's mind into another space and time.

He soon discovered that there seemed to be a figure standing in the middle of the Life Lake.

He tried to see clearly. Under the influence of the Life Lake, his vision strangely zoomed in, allowing him to clearly see the person in the middle of the lake.

It was Fang Shijie!

He stood on the Life Lake with his eyes closed. His aura was drawn out, as if he had entered a state of enlightenment.

Above his head floated an ancient bronze mirror. The bronze mirror hung upside down, reflecting the Life Lake.

That bronze mirror was a keepsake left behind by the Fang family's ancestor!

Gu Chen could not help but turn to look at the Great Prophet.

"The moment he entered the Sacred Island, his Life Lake appeared on its own. He is the Child of the Prophecy," the Great Prophet explained.

"What prophecy?" Gu Chen could roughly guess what had happened when he saw the bronze mirror, but he still wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"The Luo Sect's ancestor had an agreement with the Source Clan to protect certain things in their Life Lake. Those things can only be opened when a descendant of the Source Clan brings a specific keepsake. The moment he arrived, the keepsake automatically resonated with the Life Lake.

After that, he walked into the Life Lake and meditated for many days. The Old Man did not want to disturb him. "

The Great Prophet sighed as he recalled the first time he had met Fang Shijie.

He had not expected that after such a long time, a descendant of the Source Clan would actually appear. The promise made by the ancestor had finally come true in his hands.

"You guessed Shijie's identity from the beginning. That's why you summoned him to the Sacred Island?" Gu Chen could not help but ask.

Although he had heard that Luo Men cultivated the ability of foresight, this old man was still too powerful in his opinion.

"Not really. Although his performance in the entrance examination was outstanding, according to the rules of the sect, it was not enough for the Old Man to make an exception and summon him. The main reason why he was summoned was because he noticed you and noticed that you were together, "the Great Prophet answered honestly.

The Great Prophet answered truthfully. He had paid attention to Gu Chen because of his unusual behavior in the Lake of Life. Later, he noticed that Fang Shijie was in cahoots with him. Thus, driven by curiosity, he summoned Fang Shijie to test him.

As for why he did not summon Gu Chen directly but beat around the bush, it was partly because he did not want to alert the enemy and partly because he did not want people with ulterior motives to find out.

Fang Shijie's performance in the entrance examination was outstanding. Although it was surprising that he had made an exception and summoned him, it was not to the extent of making other guesses.

The Great Prophet was very thoughtful. However, he did not expect Fang Shijie's identity to be so extraordinary that he triggered the prophecy of the Life Lake as soon as he arrived at the Sacred Island.

Caught off guard, the Great Prophet did not even have time to talk to Fang Shijie. He did not communicate with Fang Shijie as much as he did with Gu Chen.

After understanding the situation, Gu Chen relaxed a little. It seemed that the Great Prophet was not so godlike that everything was under his control.

"How long will it take for him to end this state?"

Gu Chen looked at Fang Shijie and said. Out of caution, he still had to discuss some questions with Fang Shijie.

"The Old Man is not sure either. Fellow Daoist, you are with him, so you should know him better than the Old Man." The Great Prophet was trying to sound him out.

"After so many years, I did not expect the Luo Sect to fulfill its promise and not take the things left behind by the Source Race for themselves."

Gu Chen did not respond to the Great Prophet's words. Instead, he teased him.

"The Luo Sect's Ancestral Master was indebted to the Source Race. Before he passed away, he said that if the Source Race was in trouble, the Luo Sect should do its best to help.

"At that time, the Dao World was newly established, and the Source Race was one of the Ten Ancient Netherworld Clans. Its power was overwhelming and far greater than that of the Luo Sect. My sect's ancestors did not understand why the Ancestral Master had said that. They only thought that he was purely grateful for the Source Race's kindness.

"Later on, the Source Race really declined and eventually encountered a great calamity. They came to the Luo Sect's door and entrusted it to us. Only then did the Luo Sect's ancestors realize the Ancestral Master's penetrating insight.

"Naturally, no one dared to disobey the Ancestral Master's instructions. Thus, for countless years, the Luo Sect was entrusted with important things by the Source Race. We scrupulously abided by morality and kept secrets, waiting for the descendants of the Source Race to come to us."
