Chapter 266: Only by flying higher can you see more realistically
Because of the powerful carrying, Xia Fan and Ye still experienced the feeling of flying for the first time in their lives.
Human beings are born with the strongest desire to be free from the shackles of the ground, hidden in the depths of their souls, so this experience of flying really made Xia Fan and Ye still feel quite excited.
Although he brought two more people, the speed of the powerful air was not affected much, which also gave Xia Fan a deeper understanding of the power above the saints.
It didn't take long for the two of them to come to the core area of the wasteland with Li Jue!
Along the way, I overlooked the wasteland from the air, watching the various fierce beasts in the wasteland, in their respective activity areas, staging scenes of hunting or being hunted, from such a bystander's point of view, it is a very novel experience.
Xia Fan even saw three martial cultivators who had at least reached the level of a martial king, joining forces to hunt a powerful beast.
However, the powerful flying was too high, and the three martial arts cultivators at the level of the martial kings were completely focused on the battle in front of them, so although Xia Fan saw it clearly, the three martial kings did not notice them.
"It's a land of life, a land where there is life and death at every moment, and when we stand on the ground, there is always a limit to what we can see at a glance. And if we fly into the air, all the way up, and reach enough altitude, we can see the whole wasteland at the same time. ”
When he arrived at the core area, Li Jue put Xia Fan and Ye Yi down, and then as he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gestured a height.
"I think back then, after I finally succeeded in becoming a saint, the first thing I did was to lift off as much as I could, until I flew to the limit of what I could bear, and then looked down at the world we live in, even today, I can't forget the shock I received when I first rose to the extreme altitude and looked down, believe me, it will be a subversion! It will also allow you to truly understand the world again. ”
Li Jue said with a very evocative taste.
"Above...... What's there? ”
Xia Fan stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky and asked.
"What's ...... I do not know...... I've only done that kind of thing once. Because the higher we fly, the lower the temperature around us, and the thinner and thinner the air we breathe. When I first became a saint, I was so frivolous that I acted too recklessly, and that experience almost caused me to die in heaven. So I didn't fly as high again. If I had to ask my impressions of the above, I would ...... I guess it's 'none'......"
Li Jue said a little dazed while recalling his near-fatal experience decades ago.
"None?"
Xia Fan frowned and repeated.
"That's right, 'none'! There's nothing on it, at least that's what I've reached before. But I always felt that it wouldn't be that simple, and maybe if I could reach a higher place, I would definitely be able to make new discoveries. Because, if there is really nothing above, then what about the sun and the moon and even the stars in the sky? If there is really nothingness up there, then we are not living in a huge cage, which is a very terrible thing. ”
Li Jue nodded heavily, and then said in a somewhat dry voice.
Listening to the powerful description, unconsciously, Xia Fan felt an inexplicable chill, subconsciously raised his head, squinted his eyes, looked at the sun above his head that seemed to be only the size of a vegetable plate, and suddenly said, "Maybe...... Is the sun high and high in the sky? It's just that it's so far away from us that it looks so small. Maybe the true size of the sun...... Can it even compare to the world beneath our feet? ”
"Who knows, after becoming a saint, I realized that no matter how powerful we are now, we are still just ants to this world. So there is no point in thinking about these when we are weak, the only thing we can do is to make ourselves as strong as possible, and only when we are strong enough can we really find the truth we want to seek. ”
He said in a somewhat gloomy tone.
"You're right, after all, we need more strength to do what we want to do, and human faith always comes from deception, and peace comes from ignorance, without resentment, just because of fear. And in the end, it's all about weakness. Okay, let's not talk about these desperate topics, you said you were going to give me and still a surprise, so what is the surprise? ”
After Xia Fan finished speaking, he reached out and patted his forehead gently, as if he wanted to pat those chaotic thoughts out of his mind.
"Yes, I forgot about business. I fought with that enemy here before, and that enemy knew a secret method that could greatly increase his strength in a short period of time by absorbing the essence and blood of the beast. So before the Great War, the enemy attracted the strongest beasts in the wasteland to this place. ”
Li Jue stretched out his hand and pointed around, and said simply.
Following the direction that Li Jue was pointing, Xia Fan noticed that around the area where they were standing, there were dozens of fierce beasts with powerful breaths lying on their stomachs!
It's just that these beasts now look very weak, lying on the ground listlessly, as if they can't even stand up.
If it weren't for that, Xia Fan wouldn't have discovered their existence for the first time.
"Although the strength of these fierce beasts is not worth mentioning from the perspective of the Inner Domain, it is still very powerful in your Outer Domain. In addition, if the essence blood that is used as the essence of life is extracted alone, even for us, there will be certain benefits. Since the frequency of the battles between us was too tight, my enemy didn't find much space, and in the end he only took about half of the blood of these beasts. Even so, these fierce beasts only saved their own lives, and fundamentally, they were still seriously injured. ”
Li Jue said as he reached out and pointed around.
And the fierce beasts he pointed out were lying on the ground one by one, and they didn't even have the strength to raise their heads.
"You were mortally wounded because your enemies absorbed their life essence?"
Xia Fan asked.
"That's right, my strength was originally stronger than him, and even if it cost me to kill him, it would definitely not be life-threatening. But absorbing half of the essence blood of these fierce beasts instantly increased his strength to almost the same level as mine, so that in the end, it was almost the same as the result. ”
Li Jue said with a wry smile.
"Okay, so does that have anything to do with what you said about giving us one last gift?"
Xia Fan then asked.
"Hehe, I found something very interesting while fighting that enemy. That thing is the last gift I want to give to you and my brother and sister before I leave. ”
Li Jue said as he walked towards where one of the beasts was lying on its stomach.
