Chapter 22: The Old Man's Past
The old man looked scrawny, but he exuded a chilling aura all over his body.
He walked slowly towards Liu Yu, Liu Yu was terrified, especially the eyes of this old man, staring at him directly, as if he wanted to kill him with his eyes, he always had palpitations.
Getting closer and closer, Liu Yu heard the "rustle" sound of the old man's cloth shoes rubbing against the ground.
Liu Yu looked at the old man carefully, he was dressed in a black robe, and he held a crooked cane in his hand.
This sense of oppression made Liu Yu's heart beat faster and faster, and he wanted to run away, but found that he didn't seem to have the strength anymore.
The old man came to Liu Yu's side and asked in an extremely hoarse voice
"Young man, why did you come to the town of Gran, do you know that this place is unpredictable! If you're not careful, it could kill you! ”
As he spoke, he patted Liu Yu on the shoulder.
Each palm didn't seem to use force, just put it up gently, but Liu Yu felt the strong internal force of each palm,
"Is this the mystery of Grand Town?!"
He remembered that the old man had lifted what seemed to be a ton of wood and struck the bell at intervals of time, and what a powerful internal force a scrawny old man had!
Liu Yu, who was shocked, stammered and replied.
"I... I'm here... It's for... In order to go to the giant curtain of heaven!"
The old man's face was a little shocked, he had lived in the small town of Gran for many years.
When he was in Grand Town, he met a lot of walkers who went to the Heavenly Veil Giant Curtain and passed through Grand Town, but each of them dared to move forward with extremely strong strength, and they were basically two strong people together.
And the child in front of him looked like a blank sheet of paper, without a savage and stout appearance, nor a sinister air from the inside out, only a face that was curious about everything.
But this face gave him a sense of familiarity and aftertaste, and he remembered when he was young when he first arrived at the curtain of heaven.
At that time, he was also green, and Ziran walked alone.
The strange sights along the way have not been forgotten by him now.
And it all started just because he saw the sword god's moves.
Gorgeous and deadly!
He also wants to become a generation of great swordsmen.
Pull huge rocks to practice the power of slashing, train explosiveness with weights, and train internal strength when the rooster crows.
He made all the efforts to have the ability to squeeze into the giant curtain of the sky.
And the experience of breaking through the Sky Curtain Giant Screen for many years has made him stronger and stronger, and he has successfully entered the top 100 of the Sky Curtain Giant Screen's ranking of talents. The first is Wu Zetian, and the second is the Sword God.
He needs to rise one level at a time, knowing that he is squeezing into the top thirty before he is qualified to challenge his spiritual pillar Sword God.
In order to realize his dream, he has been working hard for more than 30 years, and he is not a naturally strange immortal ascendant, just an ordinary ordinary person.
He can always be seen in the hell training ground, and he is honing day by day.
Finally, he had the qualifications to challenge the Sword God, and on the way to Wanjian Mountain, he met a young man.
This young man, named - Gilgamesh!
But this young man was arrogant and arrogant, and when he learned that the old man in front of him was also here to challenge the sword god, he made a mocking sound.
"An old man who can't control his and pee, and he still wants to be stronger again, dream!"
Originally, the old man didn't want to deal with him, but this Gilgamesh had to make inches, and he didn't spare people when he got the benefits, and continued to provoke the old man, and said wild words that he could defeat the old man in three rounds.
The old man felt insulted by the young man, and agreed to fight him.
But even if God rewards hard work, it is not as good as outstanding talent.
In the second round, Gilgamesh defeated the old man and cut off one of his arms!
The old man held his broken arm, his eyes were full of trance, and he had been cultivating for decades, but he was defeated by a junior, an unknown junior, in the blink of an eye.
Gilgamesh, born to be a show-off person, laughs arrogantly.
"Fight with the creator of my world, you are still tender!"
As he walked ahead, the sun shining on Gilgameshkin's glittering armor, glowing with gold, as if it were a gift from the gods.
Although his heart was full of disobedience and hatred for his origin, there was indeed an absolute power gap between the two of them, and looking at Gilgamesh in the distance, there was nothing he could do except resentment.
He returned to his room in the tavern, hated the injustice of his destiny, drank all day, got drunk every day, and ignored what was happening outside the world, until one day, the whole city was in a stir......
"Have you heard, the Sword God was defeated, I heard that it was defeated by an unknown junior in less than fifty rounds."
People on the street were talking about it.
The old man happened to go downstairs to buy wine, and when he saw that everyone was talking, he went to ask what was going on.
"Don't you know, that legendary sword god who opened the world was defeated by a young man in golden armor!"
The old man remembered the young man who fought against him that day, and he couldn't give up the bridge in his heart, it should be that young man!
He is not drinking, and a person like the Sword God who is extremely talented and diligent in practicing will inevitably lose to absolute talent, so why should he be entangled?
He noticed that his ranking was slipping because he hadn't fought for a long time, and with it, he was ranked one by one by a young man who had not been on the list before.
The first place is still Wu Zetian. And the second place has become a newcomer - Gilgamesh!
On that day, he stopped drinking, but sat at the highest point in the city and meditated, quietly looking at the place for which he had devoted his life for nearly his life.
I may not be suitable for this place, and even if I cultivate to the extreme of my physical body, I may still not be able to reach the position I desire.
He chose to go away, to a comfortable place where no one knew him, and spent the rest of his life quietly.
Twenty days later, he came to a place called the small town of Gran, which was what he wanted.
There is the charm of life, but there is no lack of fun, he lives here comfortably.
He found a large bell and placed it at the highest point of the town, and he rang it every day when it was time for the people to go home, and he rested here, and over time the townspeople got used to this custom.
And now, seeing the fearless boy again, he is a kid who seems to be powerless, but it still gives him a feeling that ordinary people can't give.
He felt that there was an unusual aura in the boy's body.
