Ten thousand meters outside the east of Earth Spirit City, there is a large continuous forest.

The forest is shrouded in thick fog all year round, with no insects chirping, no birds, and everything is silent.

This is a forest full of endless strange gods, and as soon as people enter and touch the mist, they will be teleported out.

Outside the forest, a stone monument towers.

At a distance of less than 100 meters from the stele, there was a huge house built of stone, with a round spire, antique vicissitudes, and a tall bronze statue was erected at the top of the roof.

The bronze statue is a Yingwuzi dressed in fish scale armor, with his back to the forest, holding a sword in his right hand, pointing to the sky, although it is a statue, but it is magnificent, and it seems to be higher than the sky.

This bronze statue is Chen Diling.

And this room is Valhalla, which is full of the spirit tablets of the martyrs of the Flame Army led by the Chen family.

Back then, before Chen Diling rose, he was still a gangster in Diling City, he was abducted and deceived, all of them were sophisticated, and he especially liked to gamble in the casino, because he offended the people in the casino, he was chased and killed by them, and fled into the Shenji Forest, but he didn't expect to get an adventure in the forest, so he rose.

After becoming famous, Chen Diling set up a bronze statue here, which seems to act as a guard of the Shenji Forest, to express his gratitude for the adventure he received back then. Later, this Valhalla Fort was built here, and as long as the people of the Flame Army have made meritorious contributions, they can enter here after they die.

Therefore, this place has become a sacred place for the Flame Army, and every year on the seventh day of July, that is, the day Chen Diling joined the army, he must come here to worship.

Today is only January 10th, Chen Ling came here, but it is a little strange.

His face was heavy, and he pushed open the iron door and walked inside.

The structure in Valhalla is a concentric garden formed by a wall, with a total of nine floors, and the walls are covered with dense dents, some of which are empty, and some of which contain a rectangular piece of jade with cadastre, birthday, name, and position.

These people are all soldiers of the Flame Army, martyrs who died on the battlefield.

Between the two walls, there is a road more than two meters wide, and the walls on both sides of the road are also densely packed with concave mess, and there are pieces of jade in the mess.

This road is circular, and the further you go, the higher the official position of the martyr.

Chen Ling walked for ten minutes and came to the middle.

It can be seen that a black stone tablet one meter high and half a meter thick is erected on the ground, exuding a heavy atmosphere.

As soon as Chen Ling arrived, his body felt a little heavy, as if an invisible gravity was pressing on his body.

"It is worthy of being a thick earth monument, and the earth element is highly condensed. ”

Chen Ling praised.

This thick soil tablet, Chen Diling didn't know where to get it, it doesn't look like a big piece, it weighs 100,000 catties, even if the superlatively strong can't afford to move this stone tablet, it is the eye of the fighting array here, as long as this thick soil tablet is not destroyed, the wall here will never fall, and the tablet will never be broken.

In the lower half of this stele, there are two pieces of jade, side by side, with Chen Jianxuan, Lingyun written on them.

This is Chen Ling's parents.

You can put a spirit card on the thick earth tablet, but only the rank of the general of the Flame Army and above.

The Flame Legion was divided into six battalions, each of which had a general, and Chen Jianxuan and Lingyun were the chief and deputy generals of one of the battalions.

It's just that......

Chen Ling looked at these two pieces of jade, and his mood was a little heavy.

"It's been eight years, you've been gone for eight years, where have you been in the past eight years? There's no news at all, and you don't come back, are you really dead? They set up a spirit card for you, they thought you were dead, but I think you are not dead, you must still be alive. ”

Chen Ling's heart ached faintly.

When he was five years old, his parents were very busy for as long as he could remember.

His father, Chen Jianxuan, was stationed in the northern defense line of the Xianglong Empire to prevent the orcs from robbing and encroaching, and his mother Lingyun went out every once in a while, and every time she came back, she would bring pills or medicinal herbs to Chen Ling to eat.

Later, Chen Ling learned that Lingyun had traveled all over thousands of mountains and swam nearly thousands of rivers in order to find the medicine that cured his meridians.

However, although his parents are often away all year round, as long as they come back, they will accompany Chen Ling every day.

Although Chen Ling's father was strict with him, those years were really Chen Ling's happiest days, carefree and smiling.

However, when Chen Ling was ten years old, Lingyun went out for a year and did not come back, and soon after the news of his disappearance came, his father went out to look for him, and disappeared with him.

When Chen Ling got the news, it was January 10th.

Therefore, at this time of year, Chen Ling would come here and whisper to his parents about his situation.

"How nice it would be if I had the strength!"

Chen Ling's fists couldn't help clenching, everything is strength, if he has the strength, who dares to bully him, he doesn't have to stay in the Chen Mansion, he can go out to find her parents, even if he turns this continent over, he will not hesitate.

It's a pity that Chen Ling just doesn't have the strength!

The Xiling Continent is full of crises, even if it is as strong as the Chen Mansion, there are enemies around in secret, Chen Ling has no strength, and when he walks out of the Diling City, he doesn't know how to die.

"It's really incomprehensible!"

Chen Ling sighed.

When he was twelve years old, Chen Ling made up his mind to practice martial arts, made a detailed plan, and every morning when he got up, he went to the Sword Pavilion Square in the inner courtyard to train with the guards, but others could stand for an hour, but he collapsed after standing for five minutes, and others could run 10,000 meters, but he ran 300 meters and was out of breath and almost fainted, but Chen Ling gritted his teeth and persevered.

Eight years have passed, and he has persevered for eight years, but there is no progress at all, the horse can only stand for fifteen minutes, and the running can only run three thousand meters, not to mention swimming, weightlifting, and walking plum blossom piles.

"What the hell should I do? Do I live in the Chen Mansion all my life? I can't do anything?"

Chen Ling was very unwilling and didn't want to be like this for the rest of his life.

He had recently gone to the Inner Courtyard Shrine to look for the classics, just to see if there was another way.

Like the "Ancient History" and "Detailed Explanation of Fighting Qi" are all classics collected in the Shenzang Building.

It's just that no matter how many methods are recorded in the books, they are useless to Chen Ling, because no matter what the method is, the training moves are the most basic.

"It's a pity that the pot building in the inner courtyard won't let me in, otherwise I can rely on the energy contained in the food in the pot building and the strong physique, maybe there will be a turnaround. ”

Chen Ling sighed and stood in front of the thick earth monument for a long time before turning around and leaving.

"Hey, you're finally out. ”

Just as Chen Ling stepped out of Valhalla, a voice suddenly sounded.
