That night, Shi Xuan fell asleep early, and there was almost a big problem with his cultivation during the day, which made him spend a lot of energy.

Gradually, Shi Xuan went deeper into the dream: the quiet night sky was extraordinarily quiet, the bright moonlight spread the earth, and the huge ancient city looked extraordinarily ** under the bright moon. It was late at night, thousands of families had already fallen asleep, and there was only a little insect chirping outside, and in this quiet and peaceful night, a sudden disaster came.

In that distant sky, a space under the bright moon was like a broken lens, countless black clouds swept in, the magnificent city protection circle of the ancient city was shattered, and powerful energy rushed to all directions, a large area of ancient city buildings turned into powder, countless lives were slaughtered, and the huge ancient city fell into boundless darkness in an instant, and then a series of powerful figures pierced the sky, and a time war broke out.

Divine light is intertwined, the sound of space shattering is endless, countless heroes have lost their lives in vain, and the black clouds that fill the sky are like gods and demons descending into the world, incarnating tens of millions, even though countless heroes in the city have resisted, but they are vulnerable in front of gods and demons.

In a disintegrated courtyard, where blood was already pouring on the ground, a terrible battle broke out, the corpses of countless human races and demons were piled up everywhere, and an infant child cried incessantly, but no one could comfort him, even if his body was already infected with blood, because the woman who held him was dead.

At this moment, two men fought their way to the place, but all they had to do was countless corpses and a baby crying in swaddling clothes.

One of the majestic men picked up his wife and child who fell to the ground, he handed the crying child to Xue Longhai beside him, he kissed his deceased wife to hold back tears, at this moment, with the determination to die, he vowed to live and die with his clansmen.

He resolutely handed over the infant child to Xue Longhai, but Xue Longhai was unwilling to flee alone, and after some arguments between the two, Xue Longhai finally agreed to take the child.

With a wave of his brother-in-law's big hand, a huge magic circle in the courtyard lit up, countless ancient runes shone brightly, a huge space vortex was formed in the magic circle, Xue Longhai was swept away by the space vortex and disappeared, at this moment, a huge hand that destroyed the world fell from the sky, trying to kill the man with one palm, he made a big move A big sword pierced the sky, rushing here, on the way countless demons were cut into ashes, and when the big sword arrived, a shocking war broke out here, but no one knew about it.

Shi Xuan trembled and his body was covered in cold sweat, and he sat up suddenly, he woke up from his sleep, the devastating scene in his mind had not only bothered him all these years, but he never dared to tell others.

For many years, he wondered why he saw these inexplicable scenes, and his mind seemed to be artificially sealed with some secrets, especially as he grew older, he became more and more puzzled about what had happened to him.

But he never asked his father, he was afraid that it would frighten his family, and his father never told him about his childhood.

At this moment, Shi Xuan was terrified, his head hurt to death, he tried to open the seal set in his mind many times but to no avail, and he rolled on the ground with a headache, but he secretly vowed to pursue the truth.

His huge movement naturally alarmed the sleeping companions around him, and several people came over to care for him when they saw the embarrassed Shi Xuan.

"Shi Xuan, are you okay, what happened?"

"Oh, it's okay, I had a particularly scary nightmare, now it's okay, let's go and rest, I'm sorry to disturb everyone", Shi Xuan didn't want to tell them specifically.

"Well, if you want to tell us something. ”

Several people saw that Shi Xuan was getting better, so they went back to sleep.

After a night of tossing, Shi Xuan couldn't sleep all night, and he didn't get up until late the next day, and his partners couldn't bear to wake him up.

"What is hidden in my body, why do I sometimes suddenly fall into a bloodthirsty state, and I often have the same nightmare, and I can perceive two extreme elemental ...... at the same time", Shi Xuan wondered that his body was hiding a huge secret, "Let's ask Daddy another day." ”

After some pranayama, Shi Xuan went to lunch.

"Shi Xuan, are you really okay?" Looking at Shi Xuan, who was pale, Liu Ming was concerned.

"I didn't sleep well last night, it's okay" Shi Xuan was afraid that they would continue to worry about him.

"Today, you can rest well, and put other things down for the time being", Liu Ming advised.

Shi Xuan nodded, he should also breathe well, he has been frequently depleting his mind recently, and his body is indeed overloaded. He also realized that every time something inexplicable happened to him, it was when he was mentally exhausted.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shi Xuan was ready to go back to Stone Village to visit his parents, and he had been immersed in penance for a long time in Tianhai Garden, and he had not had time to go home to visit his parents, and Shi Xuan missed them very much after a long time.

Shi Xuan changed into a set of clean and tidy clothes, and came to Jiahe City to buy some gifts for his parents, but now he was shy in his pocket, so he had to exchange some contribution points for some spiritual materials and came to the city to exchange some money, so he went to buy some things, and then hurried home.

Along the way, Shi Xuan's brisk pace, like a free bird, let go of the many troubles that pressed the nerves, walked on the road easily, looked at the rather spectacular Hongyan Ridge, and felt very emotional, I hope that I will explore it well in the future, Hongyan Ridge is huge, and now I have walked too few places.

The surging Jiahe River, as in the past, brings hope for the survival of the entire Hongyan Ridge, and the magnificent volcanoes in the distance of the mountain often suddenly emit billowing smoke, sometimes erupting and sometimes stopping, there are too many stories buried here, but most of the history is buried in dust.

Shi Xuan is extremely interested in these, he hopes that one day he will be able to uncover the fog of history in person, just like his own hidden secrets, he doesn't want to live in a daze, even if the road ahead is difficult and dangerous, he will definitely overcome obstacles and move forward.

Along the river, merchants come and go, people from far away in the mainland are endless, they enter the Jiahe City only one waterway, huge merchant ships shuttle on the Jiahe River, there are many richly dressed people talking and laughing, handsome men and pretty women are bustling and lively.

Shi Xuan's thoughts had already flown out of the Red Rock Ridge and floated to the mainland, he fantasized that one day he would be able to wander away from the mainland, make friends with people with lofty ideals, achieve a legend, and finally be able to appreciate the supreme style of this world. How pleasant it is for a husband to punish, eliminate evil, and uphold justice in the world.

The stone village was as dilapidated as ever, the villagers' houses were all piled up with stones, plus the grass to cover the roof, Shi Xuan ran home quickly, some villagers saw Shi Xuan going home and said hello, Shi Xuan greeted them happily.

Entering the courtyard, Shi Xuan shouted happily: "Dad, mother, I'm back."

At this time, a well-behaved little guy twisted his ass and walked out to Shi Xuan's fierce milk, the cub of the demonic leopard, who had grown up a lot at the moment and had been weaned, and now he was well raised by his father, and he would be a good beast to take care of the house in the future.

Shi Xuan picked up the little guy and entered the house, "Xuan'er is back", Shi Xuanniang was busy taking care of the housework, and she smiled when she saw Shi Xuan come back.

"Mother, I'm back to see you, oh, this is a gift for you, the money I earned myself", Shi Xuan happily handed the gift to his mother.

"Xuan'er has grown up and started to make money", the mother looked at Shi Xuan, who had grown a lot taller, although Shi Xuan was more than eleven years old now, but he looked as burly and strong as a fifteen-year-old child.

"Has Daddy entered the mountain?" Seeing that Daddy was not there, Shi Xuan asked.

"I went yesterday, I guess I won't be back until later, Xuan'er I'll make you something to eat in the evening, and I'll go to rest for a while when I'm tired of walking." ”

Shi Xuan has been really tired recently, so he will take a nap at home......

It wasn't until late that an old figure entered the house, and Shi Xuan heard the voice and knew that his father was back.

"Daddy, you're back, I'll go home to see you guys coming"

"Xuan'er is back", Dad put away the prey he had hit, looked at Shi Xuan and said happily.

"Come and eat, the dishes are almost cold", Shi Xuanniang urged.

The family of three was happily eating dinner, talking about the shortcomings of the family. Shi Xuan did see that there was a new injury on his father's hand, although his father tried his best to cover it, Shi Xuan's eyes were a little moist.

"Daddy, how are your hands?"

"Minor injury, it's okay, I've already taken medicine. ”

"Daddy won't mess with those powerful prey in the future, I can earn money to support myself now, and I'll send you some money when the time comes, you must be careful", Shi Xuan said to Daddy.

"Hmm"

Dad felt very comforted in his heart, knowing that the decision he made back then was not wrong, this was a good child, and now he is not only sensible and filial, but even his cultivation talent is more outstanding, which makes him see the future.

"Dad, what are you thinking, so fascinated", Shi Xuan saw his father in a daze.

"It's nothing, I think of some of the past", the father stopped talking, and Shi Xuan didn't ask anymore.

Shi Xuan slept soundly this night......

The next day, the sun was shining warmly on the earth, a new day began again, countless people began to be busy again, Shi Xuan came to the village early to find his former friends, and saw that they were seriously practicing basic archery,

Seeing Shi Xuan's arrival, the friends were happy, they had always wanted to step into the same cultivation as Shi Xuan, but their own talent was not good and they had no chance, seeing Shi Xuan, they came to him curiously, hoping to understand a thing or two.

"It's been a long time since I saw Brother Shi Xuan, I miss you to death", Shi Yun said happily.

"Why did you come back, were you expelled from the academy, or did you sneak away", a little friend said.

"I'll come back and see you when I miss everyone," Shi Xuan said.

Shi Xuan chatted happily with his partners, carefully telling them about the situation in Tianhaiyuan, and the friends were fascinated by it, and they all said that they also wanted to join, but when they heard the cruel competition inside, many friends retreated, and Shi Xuan still encouraged them to participate in the registration.

Everyone pestered him to demonstrate the spiritual skills he had learned, and seeing Shi Xuan on fire really shocked the little friends, and they all felt the wonder of cultivation.

Shi Xuan personally taught them to practice archery, and now he is enough to use the big bows of adults, even if he runs fast targets, he can't escape his arrow feathers, and the big guys praise them again and again.

One played late, Shi Xuan was reluctant to go home, tomorrow he had to leave for Tianhai Garden, the one-month deadline is approaching, if he can't enter the top five of the rankings, he will miss this year's Hongyanling Academy competition, he has to make a lot of preparations when time is pressing.

The next day, with the dawn of the morning, Shi Xuan got up early to say goodbye to his parents and began to meet the academy, he looked at the haggard family, feeling uncomfortable, but at present, there is no way, only when he is strong can he protect his parents, no longer hesitate, he rushed towards the academy.

When he walked to a forest-covered place, he heard a noisy sound in front of him from a distance, Shi Xuan didn't dare to be careless, and he cautiously moved forward and saw two teams of men and horses cutting and killing from a distance, one group of people seemed to be guarding a shipment, and the other group of people covered their faces as if they were robbing.

Shi Xuan hid behind the woods and carefully observed, this group of thieves was really fierce, and there was no shortage of people who guarded the goods in the Xuanmai Realm, but they were beaten by the leader of the thieves, and there were several dead and wounded.

"What do you want, both of our king's goods dare to rob, we have sent a signal, in less than half a moment my master will come, you will all die", shouted a man lying on the ground, who was trampled on the ground by thieves at this moment, and let others slaughter him.

"Is the Wang family great? I killed the lackeys of the Wang family, and when they arrived, Lao Tzu would have already run away. I will kill you first", after saying that, the thief brutally killed all the masters who guarded the goods, and the blood flowed all over the ground, which was bloody.

Shi Xuan hid and didn't dare to speak out for fear of causing a catastrophe, when he heard that the Wang family had been robbed, Shi Xuan felt relieved in his heart, the Wang family was rampant in this area before, grabbing protection money, but this time it was remembered by strong thieves, and the loss was huge.

After the thieves had killed their masters, they did not choose to continue to kill the remaining grooms, and they threatened to flee far away with their goods, leaving behind a bloody horror.

Shi Xuan looked at the scene in front of him, is this my future path, full of blood and coldness, either you die or I die, in the eyes of these people, there is no sympathy, there is only interest.

Shi Xuan didn't dare to stay for a long time, and hurriedly ran away from other trails to rush towards the academy, just as Shi Xuan left, several strong figures came here, only to see blood and corpses all over the ground, nothing else left, a few people were furious on the spot, when did they become soft persimmons Anyone came to knead, they issued a wanted criminal in the whole city for this, and a heavy reward.

The city soon became in an uproar, and many people were surprised that someone dared to make a move against the Wang family.

In a courtyard in the city, a man in rich clothes was smiling proudly, sipping fragrant tea and saying to a person next to him: "His royal family can still jump for a few days."

"Sooner or later, it's just a mouthful of fat, this operation is just to explore the truth, and the next is the real means," said another unfathomable old man.

"Don't be careless, there is still an old immortal in his family, and his strength has become even more unfathomable over the years."

"Wang Li, this is a difficult old bone to gnaw, but as long as the price is enough, I will help you settle it," the old man said to the man.

"Don't worry, my Shen family still has some confidence here, as long as I can achieve my goal, I will meet your requirements", the man promised to the old man.

"This is natural, I still understand the confidence of the Shen family, so I wish us success," the old man said......

In another mansion in the city, the head of the Cai family and the head of the Lu family were also talking secretly at the moment, and the head of the Cai family said, "What do you think of Brother Lu's affairs today?"

"There will be an undercurrent after the waves, and it is estimated that they will make a big move next", the head of the Lu family replied,

"Jiahe City has been calm for too long, it's time for a reshuffle, you and I have a long history, how can you let two outsiders gain the upper hand, if you and I can give a blow at a critical moment, we will definitely gain a lot," said the head of the Cai family.

"What Brother Cai said is that this time it's time for a reshuffle."

......

Although Jiahe City is still prosperous at the moment, it is indeed a dark tide in secret, and a huge storm that will sweep Jiahe City is coming.

At this moment, Shi Xuan had hurried back to Tianhai Yuan, Shi Xuan felt more and more that time was pressing, now that Jiahe City had begun to gradually appear in turmoil, there might be a showdown in the near future, and there would be chaos here, and I didn't know what would happen then.

The world is unpredictable, Shi Xuan didn't think much about it early, he just wanted to work hard to improve his strength, even if something happened in the future, he also had a certain ability to protect himself.

On the second day after returning to Tianhai Yuan, Shi Xuan didn't wait any longer, he began to march towards the martial arts arena, challenging the top ten masters in the rankings, this time he was imperative, the top five positions, he must occupy one of them.

Now the top five on the list are: Zhu Ziming who ranks fifth, Yuan Caiwei who ranks fourth, Lin Song who ranks third, Du Ruofei who ranks second, and ** who ranks first.

Shi Xuan has seen the list and after some analysis, Yuan Caiwei and Du Ruofei are his good friends, he doesn't want to challenge, the first ** strength is unfathomable, there is no certainty, only the fifth Zhu Ziming and the third Lin Song are suitable for the challenge.

Although it is easier to challenge Zhu Ziming, he has no grudge against this person, and he doesn't want to be unhappy because of this, among them, Lin Song has a grudge against himself, challenging him is indeed difficult, but it is indeed something he has to do, because of the previous incident, there is no possibility of resolving between him and Lin Song, and there will be a battle between the two.

It's not easy to challenge Lin Song, this guy's other talents can't compare to the other four, but he is equipped with a number of spirit forging equipment, relying on the strong equipment advantage, even the originally powerful senior sister Yuan Caiwei was defeated by him, which caused Yuan Caiwei to find Shi Xuan to help her forge equipment.

Although Shi Xuan is also a spirit forging master, he has only been a beginner for a short time, and he has only forged two pieces of equipment for himself until now, and he doesn't want to rely on foreign objects to improve his strength too early, unless he has to use it to protect himself.

Hearing that Shi Xuan was going to challenge Lin Song, Yuan Caiwei ran to find Shi Xuan. Now that he's back from training, the game is approaching, and she has to be ready.

"You're going to challenge that guy now?" Yuan Caiwei asked Shi Xuan.

"I have to do this, I don't have a choice, he has provoked others to embarrass me several times before, because of his brother's affairs, I can't resolve grievances with him, if I can represent the academy this time, I don't want to be teammates with him," Shi Xuan said.

"That's true, this guy's other skills are not to be feared, but the spirit forging equipment is really extraordinary, the last time he challenged me, he relied on a number of spirit weapons to greatly enhance the combat strength, I was helpless against him at that time, and then I asked you to help me forge spirit weapons." Yuan Caiwei said, obviously she knew this nasty guy better than Shi Xuan.

"Does it rely on more equipment, what strength does he have now, if he reaches the ninth order, then I really don't have to fight", Shi Xuan wanted to know more.

"With his ability yet, he is now at the eighth-order level, and the Kaiyuan Realm is currently the first-order ** and the second-order Du Ruofei has reached the ninth order, Lin Song and I are both eighth-order, and Zhu Ziming is seventh-order," Yuan Caiwei told Shi Xuan.

"It's really a waste, relying on multiple pieces of spirit forging equipment can't get into the top two, it's just insulting to the reputation of our spirit forging master, these equipment are just outrageous to wear on his body, let me pick it off for him one by one", Shi Xuan said domineeringly.

Looking at Shi Xuan's confident appearance, Yuan Caiwei felt warm in her heart, she was not mistaken, "You must be angry for me, this guy usually has no one in his eyes, he is high, this time you have to let him understand his own catties."

"After the academy competition is over, I will definitely create a spirit forging of excellent quality for you," Shi Xuan said to Yuan Caiwei.

"Lie to me as a puppy", Yuan Caiwei is playful.

"I swear with my life, if it can't be completed, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed", Shi Xuan solemnly promised.

"Okay, I believe you, don't talk nonsense, heaven is ruthless," Yuan Caiwei said with relief.

After the two finished speaking, Shi Xuan took Liu Ming and a few people to go to Xu Lao to sign up to challenge Lin Song.

"Have you thought about challenging Lin Song, and Zhu Ziming, who chose fifth, seems to be more sure," Xu Lao said to Shi Xuan.

"There will be a battle between me and Lin Song, sooner or later we have to face him, it's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, I'm sure to challenge him", Shi Xuan said categorically.

"Okay, the young man has strong blood and courage, and the old man will rule for you in the martial arts arena this afternoon," Xu Lao said.

Shi Xuan said goodbye to Old Xu and left.

"What, Shi Xuan actually chose to challenge Lin Song?" said one of the elders of the Academy.

"Yes, old man, I also persuaded him to choose to challenge the fifth-ranked person, but he still chose Lin Song, the grievances between the two of them are deeply difficult to resolve, even if both of them enter the top five, it is not necessarily a good thing for us, the two have a gap in their hearts, it must be difficult to cooperate with each other, this is a disadvantage in the big competition", Xu Lao said to the director of Tianhai Yuan.

"What do you think he has a chance of winning?" the garden chief asked Shi Xuan's master, Su Li.

"This kid is excellent in terms of talent and hard work, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds in less than a year, and now he can compete with the senior brother who entered the school for a year before has a huge future, his potential ability is very great, I believe he can defeat Lin Song", Su Li said seriously. She really liked this kid.

"Elder Zhong, what do you think?" the garden chief looked at Zhong Wei.

"Although Lin Song entered school early, his spirit forging skills are still good, but this person's heart is not right, it will be difficult to be a big task in the future, I am too narrow-minded I am not optimistic about him, Shi Xuan has been learning spirit forging by my side these days, he is a good seedling, although there is a gap between the two realms, but it is not impossible to make up for it", Zhong Lao said.

"This kid can actually get the three of you to pay such attention, it seems that he does have something special, okay, let's wait and see. ”

......
