Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Old Man's Voice
The mysterious and ethereal voice sounded in his ears, and after Li Xiaoyao was silent for a long time, he suddenly became a little involuntary and looked for the source of the mysterious sound.
Walking forward step by step, the original illusory sword shadow seemed to have been shot down by him, and never appeared again.
When little by little the bright light became more and more intense in his eyes, what Li Xiaoyao could see in his eyes was no longer the empty and weird scene before.
What appeared in front of him was a mountain that was not very tall. A majestic waterfall cascades from the top to the bottom of the mountain, like a long silver-white hair flying in the cold wind.
Going up the mountain, Li Xiaoyao still didn't feel any pressure or resistance.
Until a large and terrifying ancient tree appeared in front of him, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.
Because, whether it is a huge size or a rhizome that extends out for miles or even tens of miles, this ancient tree gives itself a very familiar feeling.
It felt like I'd seen it somewhere.
"You're here......"
Just when Li Xiaoyao was secretly surprised and puzzled in his heart, the ethereal voice came again. It's just that, compared to the beginning, the ethereal feeling in my ears at this moment is much lighter.
Instead, there is a touch of more vigorous old age.
"Who are you?"
Hearing the old voice in his ears, Li Xiaoyao was shocked again.
However, he was already mentally prepared, but compared to the beginning, he was much better.
His eyes looked around on this strange mountain peak, and there were almost no other life forms except for the huge ancient tree in front of him.
As for the source of that sound, it is even more impossible to find.
asked in a low voice, but Li Xiaoyao's expression became calmer and calmer. At this moment, on top of this strange mountain peak, he could feel that this place seemed to be full of majestic life energy.
In any case, such a pure and majestic life energy gathers here, and the people here will definitely not be bad.
He himself couldn't tell why such a thought suddenly arose in his heart. However, his expression did become much more relaxed and casual at this moment.
"Me? Hehe! It's been so long that I've forgotten who I am. However, after so many years, I finally waited for the third destined person. ”
Just as Li Xiaoyao's doubts fell, the ancient giant tree standing in front of him suddenly shook gently.
And with the shaking of the ancient giant tree in front of him, the old voice appeared in his ears again.
"The third fateful person? You mean, there were two more people who came here before me. ”
Hearing this old voice, Li Xiaoyao was silent for a second, and then a ray of surprise flashed in his heart. He looked around, and finally landed on the ancient giant tree in front of him.
With a look of surprise on his face, Li Xiaoyao asked.
He was very clear in his own heart as to why he was able to appear here, although the souls in the sea did not help him. But without the secret guidance of that immature child's voice, he would never have been here.
"yes. Both of them were a long, long time ago, though. It's just a pity, after them, before you, there should have been a stubborn little guy who could have come over, just...... Alas, creation makes people. ”
The ancient giant tree shook violently twice, and its huge body shook, and the leaves that covered the sky and the sun seemed to be snowing, and one by one they danced gracefully in the air, slowly falling.
The old man's voice seemed to be very melancholy, as if he was regretting something, and as if he was sighing for the stubborn little guy he mentioned.
"Okay, so you summoned me here, is there anything I need to do for you?"
Without continuing the chat, Li Xiaoyao said straight to the point.
In his heart, he never believed that this old and mysterious voice would be a fortuitous creation for himself.
Since the longer he has been in contact with the two souls in Zhihai, the more he has deeply understood a truth, there is no free lunch in the world, and if you want to get it, you have to pay, and it may even take two or three times, or several times the pay.
His gaze fell on the ancient giant tree in front of him, and there was no other creature in front of him who felt like he was sapient. Therefore, Li Xiaoyao instinctively regarded the old voice as it.
"You are very smart, I have a task here, as long as you can help me complete it, then, this sword of life can be completely yours. ”
Li Xiaoyao's voice fell, and the old ethereal voice sounded again.
At the same time as the old and ethereal voice sounded, on the ancient huge giant tree beside Li Xiaoyao, there was a tremor that was even more violent than before. It's as if you've been stimulated by some horror.
And at the same time as the ancient giant tree trembled violently, a turquoise light suddenly bloomed from it. It was as if an incomparably majestic green energy rushed out from the center of the entire giant tree, which was extremely exaggerated.
Under this intense turquoise light, Li Xiaoyao couldn't even open his eyes.
However, even with his eyes tightly closed, he could still feel the majestic energy contained in the intense light of the outside world.
"Boy, ...... Hurry up and promise him!"
"Brother, your fortune is here, with this sword of life, you don't have to worry about your fire of life in the future. ”
"Brother, think clearly, the more you get, the more you give. No matter which choice you make, you must be mentally prepared for your choice. ”
When the majestic turquoise light in front of him slowly converged, in Li Xiaoyao's sea of knowledge, three different voices sounded almost at the same time.
The tone of the old man's soul seemed very excited, and he almost didn't forcibly control Li Xiaoyao's body and agreed to the mysterious and old voice.
And the young soul still has a flowing tone, but in his words, more or less, it seems to lure Li Xiaoyao to accept the opportunity in front of him.
Only the immature children's voices who appeared many times and helped them escape from danger many times, did not have the excitement and temptation of the two of them in their words. On the contrary, his words appear very serious, even dignified.
It was the appearance of this immature child's voice that calmed down the excitement in Li Xiaoyao's heart a little.
For the verdant sword floating quietly in front of him, how could he not perceive its power. Even, the aura emanating from its body was much more terrifying than the Soul Separation Sword he had obtained in the Arctic Ice Field.
In particular, the majestic life energy emanating from it seemed to be a huge temptation, which made Li Xiaoyao's heart extremely concerned about it.
"You can think clearly, as long as you promise me, this sword of life is yours. It's also your luck, I didn't plan to take out this sword of life, if it weren't for the existence of those special souls in your body, the demand for life force is extremely huge, I would never take it out. ”
The old man's voice fell again, and this time, the shock in Li Xiaoyao's heart was greater than the ancient and huge giant tree in front of him and the powerful sword of life in front of him.
"What kind of person is he, what kind of existence is he, how can he even find out how many souls live in the sea of his own consciousness?"
Countless doubts and horrors fell from this old ethereal voice, and constantly rose in Li Xiaoyao's mind. The look on his face also became a little solemn with the countless doubts and surprises that rose in his heart.
"Okay, you don't have to be so surprised, old man, I've lived for so long, what kind of person haven't seen it. Don't worry, I won't hurt you. This task, even if you don't agree to me, as your cultivation grows in the future, the souls in the sea of consciousness will take the initiative to take on it after they slowly take shape. Because, this is your mission, and you can't hide from it. ”
Li Xiaoyao was like a person who had been stripped naked at this moment, completely and completely exposed to the sight of this mysterious person.
Hearing the old and ethereal voice again, Li Xiaoyao's heart still couldn't describe his emotions with shock.
A strange look flashed in his eyes, and Li Xiaoyao did not speak again.
Because, he didn't know what he should say at the moment.
What the other party mentioned was too shocking. He didn't know what he meant by what he said, the formation of the souls, his mission, any of these things, he himself was stunned and dazed.
I'm just an ordinary teenager, and the only thing that can be said to be bizarre is what happened to me before.
However, compared to some people who are more miserable than themselves, how can this matter of oneself be worth mentioning?
And in this case, what kind of mission do you have?
For him, his current mission, in addition to improving his cultivation as soon as possible to find the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to get back justice for himself and Aunt Qiu, is to reach that realm as soon as possible, and then go to find the love of his heart - Guo Wenwen.
Other than that, he didn't think he had any special mission.
