Chapter 174 The Edge of Life and Death
"Who is it?!" Lin Fan's face changed drastically, he broke out in a cold sweat, and immediately turned his head.
With his cultivation that he was now gradually entering the Divine Soul Realm, he was unknowingly approached within a range of five miles, which was undoubtedly a terrifying thing to think about.
"Don't be nervous, lad. ”
This is an old man who is in the mood for a long time.
He was staggering, foggy and windy, wearing a shabby white robe, sewing a lot of patches, but it seemed that due to frequent washing, there was no slightest ragged feeling, and the whole person looked extremely clean, and it was easy to make people feel a sense of closeness.
However, looking at people must not only look at the surface, this old man seems to be old and frail, but he can silently approach behind Lin Fan, this alone is something that most masters of the Void Realm cannot do, and he never dares to take it lightly.
"Don't get any closer!" Lin Fan's eyes were cold, and his fists were raised lightly, as if he wanted to urge the Great Destruction Fist.
The next moment, his face changed drastically, he had always been invincible, and the Great Destruction Fist, which had the power of devouring the sky and devouring the sun, was unprecedentedly invalid this time, and he did not absorb any heaven and earth spirit element, and when he bloomed slightly, it was instantly dimmed, without the slightest blessing of divine power.
"I won't hurt you, I can't hurt you, you don't have to worry too much. The old man's eyes were sunken, and his conversation was full of vicissitudes, but he sighed softly and stopped in place.
Lin Fan was vigilant by nature, combined with a lot of clues, and judged the danger of this person, and it was impossible for him to let down his guard, and he was confused by his powerless appearance.
He was not moved at all, stared intently at the old man, and asked vigilantly, "Who are you?"
"Where you are standing now, it is a part of my body, who do you think I am?" the old man looked amiable, his temples were gray, and he exuded a weathered aura.
"What do you mean?"
Lin Fan's expression was stunned, and then turned suspicious, and asked: "This Heavenly Scripture Pavilion is a part of the Absolute Soul Palace, and it is also the forbidden place of the Immortal God Sect, you broke into this place without permission, could it be that you want to steal and remove the things here?!"
"Looks like you still don't understand what I mean, young man. ”
The old man smiled faintly, but a hint of wisdom flashed in his eyes, and he continued: "Immortal God Sect, that's just your statement, ten thousand years ago, this place was not called this name. ”
As he spoke, he looked at the sky casually and said softly, "Maybe the Holy Crocodile, this child, has not told you the origin of this place yet." ”
Holy Crocodile ...... Child?!!
Lin Fan's pupils were thin and weak, his soul trembled, and he asked tentatively, "You... Please explain to me in detail what you mean by that. ”
Before he knew it, he actually used honorifics.
At this moment, his mind has calmed down a little, and he has figured out a lot of things.
This old man, since he can approach him quietly and silently, he must also have the means to erase him instantly, if he wants to murder him, he has already done it, so why wait until now.
If Lin Fan made this defensive posture again, it would really seem a little funny.
"Presumably, you should also know that the Holy Crocodile is an ancient clan in the demon world ten thousand years ago. ”
As he spoke, the old man paused, glanced at Lin Fan with a deep look, and continued: "Now the 'Immortal God Sect' you are talking about is the ancestral land of their lineage, ten thousand years ago, they were not unbeautiful, but one of the three major royal families in the demon world. ”
"What?!"
Hearing this, Lin Fan was taken aback and asked eagerly, "You mean, this entire domain was the ancestral land of the Holy Crocodile back then?!"
"The lad has a good understanding. The old man nodded, a hint of approval on his face.
"No wonder..."
Lin Fan's eyes flickered, and he said to himself thoughtfully: "At the beginning, people told me that opening up a real domain realm can only be done by immortals beyond the ten thousand realms, and I thought that the holy crocodile had really reached such a realm..."
Then, as if he was a little puzzled, he looked at the old man and asked, "Then what do you mean by saying that the place where I am standing now belongs to your body?"
"Do you think that anyone can have a lifespan of 10,000 years......
The old man shook his head and smiled, flicked his sleeve robe, and immediately had a bright light, and the whole person instantly turned into a bewitching woman, he smiled charmingly, lightly brushed again, and his body suddenly shrank, turning into a child about five years old, looking up at Lin Fan with a simple face.
In this way, in just a quarter of an hour, he changed hundreds of forms, each of which was very different, each with its own style, which dazzled Lin Fan and almost stunned.
"Stop..."Lin Fan felt a pain in his eyes, and couldn't help but take two steps back, and exclaimed urgently.
Hearing this, the old man finally stopped changing, and the brilliance of his whole body faded away, and he turned into the appearance of old age and decrepit again.
He stroked his long beard, looked at Lin Fan, and said incomprehensibly, "Now you understand, right?"
"You... You are the king of a thousand faces!" Lin Fan said excitedly.
Hearing this, the old man almost stumbled.
"The King of a Thousand Faces has a great deal of talent, he has long transcended the Ten Thousand Domains, and his sword is pointing at the immortals, do you think such a character is likely to be willing to be a pavilion keeper here?!" the old man jumped like thunder, lost his calm, and said with a blow of his beard and glaring.
"Then what are you doing with so many faces..."Lin Fan pursed his lips and said unhappily.
"The King of a Thousand Faces can transform all things, there is no fixed form, and it is not limited to the human form, what I want to express is that I am the guardian spirit of this Heavenly Scripture Pavilion, and I have no physical body, so I can exist for such a long time. The old man sighed with a helpless face.
Lin Fan frowned, did not show the slightest discoloration, but said questioningly: "The time that the Heavenly Scripture Pavilion has existed is so long that it is impossible to measure, since this is the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion that belongs to the Demon Realm Royal Family, then it has existed for more than 100,000 years, is it possible that you have also lived for more than 100,000 years?"
"Not 100,000 years, 570,000 years. ”
The old man looked up at the sky and glanced at him lightly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning, and he had the taste of a master outside the world.
"The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes. ”
Lin Fan rolled his eyes and continued: "Don't fool me, if there is such an existence, I am afraid that it would have been born in the world long ago, with the power of such a terrifying soul body, even this wasteland ancient realm cannot be restrained, and it can be transformed with the immortal gods." ”
"That's why I'm here today. ”
The old man smiled bitterly, his mood seemed to be a little sad, and he said in a low voice: "At the beginning, when the ancestor of their lineage founded the Tianjing Pavilion, he predicted a lot of things in advance, in order to prevent me from refining the soul and turning into an immortal with the immortal Shouyuan, he set a ban on me from sealing the memory spell at the beginning, and every ten thousand years, I will be erased from my memory and become an unconscious soul body, and when I have consciousness again, it will be more than nine thousand years later, so that I can't break free from this cage at all." ”
Hearing this, Lin Fan couldn't help frowning and pondered for a while.
The next moment, he immediately became vigilant, stared at the old man for a moment, as if he saw through his thoughts, and asked, "Do you want me to help you get out of here?"
"Yes, I know the relationship between you and the Holy Crocodile, and he will never be able to disobey you. ”
The old man said in his mouth, and immediately changed into a slim girl, her eyes were very bright, and she moved the lotus step lightly, standing in front of Lin Fan, with bursts of fragrance all over her body, looking at him hopefully.
"There is nothing I can do about it, and now that I have made the Holy Crocodile a friend, not a slave, I will not instruct him to do such a thing. ”
Looking at this delicate and moving girl, Lin Fan not only did not feel the slightest emotion, but felt a chill, raised his hand to push her away, but as if he had touched a pile of air, his arm directly penetrated her body.
Hearing this, the beautiful girl suddenly became anxious.
Her body shook and she reverted to the appearance of the old man.
"Boom"
The next moment, he held divine power between his palms and fingers, and with a violent wave, the endless ancient books immediately bloomed, outlining the avenue lines, and flew out with a "bang", almost submerging the sky, all of which were blooming with the breath of desolation and ancient times, which made people's hearts tremble.
"If you promise me, I can promise that in this Heavenly Scripture Pavilion, all the secret books and ancient books are available for you to refer to at will, among them, there are many supreme ancient techniques that have been lost for tens of thousands of years, and even many hidden stories from ancient times are also recorded here. ”
The old man's voice was low, and he said step by step: "I think you have also seen the "Ancient History of a Thousand Faces" before, if you like it, there are many ancient books like this........."
"Enough!"
Lin Fan snorted and said, "Don't say it, if you lose the Pavilion Guarding Spirit, this Heavenly Scripture Pavilion may become something, I can't break the foundation of the Holy Crocodile, I will leave today!"
As he spoke, the light bloomed under his feet, and he turned around to leave, but he was blocked by a wall of light made of ancient books, constantly flowing with waves of Dao patterns, and the terrifying suppressive power made it like a quagmire, making it difficult to move an inch.
"Are you really not thinking about it anymore?"
The old man's eyes shone with cold light, and he floated forward, staring at Lin Fan coldly, and threatened: "If I behead you, the holy crocodile will inevitably die with me, and if I want to break the seal again, it will be an easy matter, don't force me to do this." ”
