Chapter 379: The Old Man in the Light
I followed the ball of light across the stone path to the magnificent Temple of Immortality, and the divine majesty emanating from the entire temple shook my heart strongly, and I felt that my heart was about to stop beating at this moment.
The ball of light in front of me sensed that I was looking up at the temple, and instead of continuing to follow it, the ball of light flew back and shook in front of me, and then flew forward again, and I hurriedly followed.
After entering the temple, there is a long corridor inside, and on both sides of the corridor are dimly lit rooms, and it is impossible to see what exactly is in the room, as if there is endless space in each room.
In these endless spaces there are not only great dangers, but also temptations that constantly stir up the desires of people's hearts: powerful exercises, endless wealth, supreme power, supreme fame, eternal life, and so on.
However, I don't know exactly what kind of temptation there is in these rooms, as if I can get everything in this world in an instant as soon as I walk into any room. Desire began to surge uncontrollably in the bottom of my heart, making my perennial untouched state of mind now have an inexplicable desire.
But the good thing is that I can still absolutely restrain myself now, and Goku in my arms is now restless. I regret bringing it in now, I didn't dare to leave it outside just now for fear that it would run around, but Goku doesn't seem to be able to hold out for long now.
At this moment, the ball of light in front of me stopped, and I saw a bright room on the right side of the ball of light, which was different from the others, and it seemed that this room was where I was going, what was waiting for me in this room?
In an extremely bright but unblinding light, I saw an old man waiting for me. Even though I couldn't see the old man's face in the light, I was sure it was an old man.
The old man said to me in a kind tone, "Welcome, young man. I am one of the attendants of this temple of immortality, we have been waiting here for tens of thousands of years, and today someone finally walked into this temple. Whatever you crave, I can satisfy you. Now say what you desire. ”
'Get everything!get everything!look down on all living beings... A strong voice echoed in my heart. I forcibly stabilized my mind and said respectfully: "Hello senior, I don't want anything. ”
"Oh, yes, don't you have anything you want, don't you want everything in this world? everything in this world is now at your fingertips. The old man in the light said.
I took a deep breath, shook my head and said, "No, I still don't want everything. Or even if I wanted everything, I didn't want to choose this way. The important thing in a person's life is not the final end, but the process of living. How can you get everything so easily? Isn't this way of living boring?"
"Hahaha, good, you are a young man with potential. So is there anything you want to know about antiquity 10,000 years ago? The old man said with a smile.
I said, "Tens of thousands of years ago is too long ago, even if I knew, it didn't make much sense, I just think it's okay." Senior, I'm here to find a bloody refining body for the grassland tribe... ”
Before I could finish speaking, the old man interrupted me and asked, "Then don't you want to know what it is like to become an immortal and a god? Don't you want to know how to become an immortal and a god? Don't you want to know where the tomb of the god and the immortal mound are?"
I continued to shake my head and said, "To tell you the truth, I know a great power who knows a little bit about the top secrets you are talking about. The Great Power told me that there was no point in knowing those secrets with my current cultivation. Maybe one day when I have enough strength, the Great Power will tell me. "Since the Ghost Emperor knows the clues of these things, why should I take such a risk to ask the old man in front of me.
The old man listened to my words and laughed softly: "You are really a rare child of destiny. Alright then, I'll leave you with what you're looking for. As he spoke, the old man handed me a rectangular purple wooden box more than two feet long.
After I took the wooden box with both hands and put it away, I respectfully bowed to the old man and said, "Yuzhen thanks my seniors." ”
"There is no need to be polite, we should thank you for risking your life to help our descendants take the inheritance. I'm looking forward to seeing you come here and challenge our real test when you're strong enough in the future. Also, the slate on your body is a rare thing, and you should take good care of what is recorded on it. The old man said gently.
The old man's words shocked me, I originally thought that this so-called temple attendant should be a god soul who was set in advance to only react in a certain way, similar to a semi-conscious spirit. I didn't expect that the person in front of me was really a great power from 10,000 years ago, so is he a god?
I didn't dare to think about it anymore, let alone ask more, I cautiously lowered my head and said, "Yes, the junior remembers your teachings, and the junior will leave first." With that, I respectfully exited the room.
"Unless I'm crazy, I'll never come to such a scary place again!" I lowered my head and walked all the way to the spatial rift where I had just arrived, and quickly raised my leg and stepped out of the spatial rift.
After the spatial rift was closed, in the bright room in the Temple of Immortality, the old man smiled kindly, "I actually resisted all the temptations, and even suppressed my curiosity. He's such an interesting young man, and it looks like I'll see him again. ”。。。。
After leaving the Temple of Immortality, I hurried back to the temple where the wise man was. It seems that the wise man has sensed in advance, and now there are more than fifty beast soul warriors guarding here at the foot of the mountain, and many guards are arranged around the temple.
There were still only two people in the temple, me and the wise man, and I put the wooden box I had obtained in the Temple of Immortality in front of the wise man and said, "Master Wise Man, this is what I got in the Temple of Eternal Life. I didn't open it all the way, now it's up to you to open it. ”。
The wise man looked at the wooden box in front of him and was obviously a little excited, but he still shook his head and said, "No, Elder You. This is a holy object given to you by our steppe god, only you are qualified to open it, and the things in it also belong to you. ”
I said sincerely, "Guru, I know that you are saying this from the bottom of your heart. Then I also assure you that all the grassland inheritances in this wooden box will be unconditionally donated to the grassland. ”
