Peerless Taoist

This piece of gold was not a small fortune for many wealthy families in the city.    

He could use this piece of gold to settle down in a house in the city.    

"I'll bring you there. Come, follow me."    

Seemingly worried that the other beggars in the mountain Temple would discover him, Zhu Zi hurriedly hid the golden cake in front of him in his arms and led the way in front.    

Although his legs were crippled, because he was a young man, it was still effortless for him to walk. Thus, he walked very quickly.    

The two of them soon arrived outside the city, on a worn-out hillside.    

This was a desolate mountain range. The surroundings were filled with weeds and yellow hills. Apart from the two of them, no one else would come.    

"I remember Old Zhang. He has a good temper. He also helped me back then. I know you don't believe me, but I'm still loyal to my friends. Since he was able to help me during my most difficult time, I naturally wouldn't throw him into the mass grave."    

Zhu Zi walked in front and brought the young man to a hillside.    

There was an old locust tree there. Under the locust tree stood a piece of rock.    

This rock was piled up with some crushed stones, and there were some weeds scattered on its surface.    

"Old Zhang's corpse is inside. I'll come over every once in a while to repair it." Zhu Zi's voice was a bit dull:" I was originally a swordsman in the martial arts world, but because I offended some of the powers in the martial arts world... I lived in seclusion in the mountain Temple. "    

Zhu Zi looked at the stone tomb and said faintly, "Old Zhang helped me before. I hope you will treat his tomb well."    

The young man looked at Zhu Zi and nodded.    

He slowly walked up. At this moment, everything around him suddenly stopped.    

The wind disappeared and the birds and insects also stopped chirping. Everything fell into the final calm.    

The old man who was the weapon spirit of the pagoda once again appeared beside Lu Yu.    

"You have passed the trial."    

The artifact spirit let out a long sigh and looked at Lu Yu with a complicated expression. "But what makes me curious is, why did you come here to see this tomb? And... I don't seem to be able to see through you. "    

He could use Lu Yu's fear to create an illusion, but he could not read Lu Yu's inner thoughts.    

What the old man didn't know was that Lu Yu's inner heart was the soul of Daolord. Adding the inheritance of the Heavenly Emperor, his soul was as solid as a rock. Even though he was a rare item of the Heavens and Earth, he still couldn't fully understand Lu Yu's thoughts.    

Lu Yu didn't answer him. Instead, he silently walked to Old Zhang's grave and observed it.    

Perhaps he hadn't found where Old Zhang had gone, but he never thought that there would be a beggar who would bury another beggar in such a grave.    

Human nature was actually the most fragile when it came to poverty. However, he couldn't deny that there was still warmth and humanity in this world.    

"Forget it, I won't look anymore. Let's go out." Lu Yu closed his eyes.    

He came to this illusionary realm, but he had yet to see his old friend. It was already enough if he didn't come here to take a look.    

The old man sighed and said, "You are the first person who has passed the ninth floor of the pagoda in all these years. I originally thought that you would have no choice but to become a mortal beggar. I didn't expect you to come up with such a move in the end. That's quite unexpected."    

"However, I want to ask you, how did you overcome the despair in your heart? With continuous deaths, your Dao heart shouldn't have been so stable."
