Chapter 6, The Mysterious Old Man
In some of the dark Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Ranges, a person, a snake and a monkey were walking forward, and the monkey held a small pile of spirit fruits in his arms, and from time to time threw a spirit fruit to the young man sitting on the black snake. The young man took the spirit fruit and took a bite, although the spiritual power in the spirit fruit could not increase his cultivation in the slightest, it could increase his physique and strength.
"Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey, look at the spirit tree in front of you, it's the Yantang pear tree. ”
Ye Haoxian opened his mouth on the head of the snake and called the Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey, and when the Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey heard this, he looked at a small tree in front of him, put a small pile of spirit fruits in his arms on the ground and walked over.
The whole body of the small tree is fiery red, and there is a raging fire burning around it, and there are two small and delicate Yantang pears hanging on the fiery red branches and leaves. A Yantang pear can be worth half a year of penance in the early days of the Yellow Realm!
Such a Yantang pear can be auctioned for hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and it is often priceless, which can be seen in the preciousness of Yantang pear.
Ignoring the raging fire around the Yantang pear tree, the Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey directly picked up the two Yantang pears, came to the side of the snake and handed the Yantang pears to Ye Haoxian.
Ye Haoxian only took one, after all, there were many other spirit fruits, the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range was really a treasure land that gave birth to countless heavenly and earthly treasures, and they had already encountered more than five spirit trees along the way, and none of them were guarded by demon beasts.
Ye Haoxian couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, without him, there were too many spiritual fruits. If you let others know Ye Haoxian's thoughts, it is estimated that she will vomit blood in a depressed manner, who will think that there are many spirit fruits? It is estimated that it will be Ye Haoxian.
Ye Haoxian looked at the small and delicate Yantang pear, and swallowed it directly into his stomach, and a fiery feeling came from Ye Haoxian's abdomen. The warm flow spread all over the body, this feeling was too comfortable, Ye Haoxian couldn't help but let out a low voice.
"Hmm"
Ye Haoxian clenched his fists very happily, feeling the increased strength in his body, and estimating his strength in his heart. It should be comparable to the middle stage of the Yellow Realm, and there should be about 7,000 catties in one punch, which is more than half a tripod of strength!
However, you must know that Ye Haoxuan has swallowed no less than three spirit fruits, and the more he gets to the back, the more elixir he needs, and the less he will increase his strength. But Ye Haoxian said that we lack everything, that is, there is no shortage of elixirs such as spirit fruits.
The Red Flame Golden-Eyed Monkey also swallowed another Yantang pear in one gulp, and the red golden light in his eyes flashed out two golden rays of light, which shot on the body of the Cangtian Ancient Tree next to him.
A large hole about several feet deep and exuding the smell of burning appeared on the huge body of the Cangtian Ancient Tree, and the body of the Cangtian Ancient Tree was pierced, and then it shook twice and fell directly, making a huge noise.
"Boom"
Ye Haoxian's lips opened slightly, he looked at the Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey in disbelief, rubbed his eyes, and recalled the scene just now in disbelief. Two golden rays of light shot out from the eyes of the Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey, directly causing a hundred-foot-tall ancient tree to fall down with a bang, which was too incredible to be true.
"Roar"
The Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey roared towards the forest, seemingly very happy, holding the pile of spirit fruits that had been placed on the ground before, and walked to Ye Haoxian's side.
When the snake saw the Red Flame Golden Eye Monkey coming, he lost even the courage to take a look at the Red Flame Golden Monkey, without him, the strength of the Red Flame Golden Eye Monkey was too strong, and he could easily torture and kill him. This is such a big difference in strength, so that the snake does not dare to have the slightest disrespect for the Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey, its eyes are full of awe, and the huge snake head lowers slightly.
The Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey looked as usual, and he did not disrespect Ye Haoxian because of the increase in strength, on the contrary, he respected Ye Haoxian even more, and he could feel a faint breath from Ye Haoxian, which was a kind of breath that was close to heaven and earth and admired by all beasts, which made it involuntarily closer to Ye Haoxian.
Seeing that the Red Flame Golden-eyed Monkey, whose strength had greatly increased, lowered his posture, Ye Haoxian scratched his head with some curiosity, and finally attributed the credit to the Heavenly Ancient Tree Divine Consciousness in his mind. It should be its means, Ye Haoxian guessed in his heart, if he let the Heavenly Ancient Tree Divine Sense know, it is estimated that he will use his divine thoughts to let out a "hehe." ”
Soon, they came to the deepest part of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, which seemed unusually quiet, and no birds chirped in the air, or they did not dare to chirp here.
The Red Flame Golden-Eyed Monkey felt a few divine senses that were looking at them, and immediately hid behind the snake, and Ye Haoxian on the snake's head didn't notice anything wrong. Still looking around, when those few divine senses checked Ye Haoxian, they all avoided it.
Because Ye Haoxian's mind exuded an aura that made their souls feel awe-inspiring, they wanted to step forward in front of Ye Haoxian, but they didn't dare to step forward because of the timidity in their hearts.
Ye Haoxian quickly left here, he saw a cliff in front of him, a cliff formed by breaking off from the middle of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, the cliff was bottomless, and from time to time there were two strong winds blowing on Ye Haoxian's face, and Ye Haoxian's face was a little painful.
You must know that Ye Haoxian's physical strength is enough to compare with Fan Tie, and he was actually blown painfully, so you can imagine how fast this wind blew to the bottom.
Ye Haoxian's eyes looked at the things on the cliff, and he saw a person on the cliff, a gray-haired old man sitting cross-legged on the cliff!
How is this possible, you must know that this is the deepest part of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, and there is actually an old man here! It's incredible, how could he not be eaten by the demon beasts?
When Ye Haoxian felt the intimacy coming from the old man, he jumped off the head of the snake and walked straight towards the old man.
The snake wanted to follow closely behind Ye Haoxian, but it was blocked by an invisible barrier, and it hit the invisible barrier in front of it with some anger. The Red Flame Golden-Eyed Monkey also scratched its head curiously, and two golden rays of light shot out of its eyes towards the barrier, but it couldn't penetrate it anyway.
This barrier is like heaven and earth blocking them.
A voice came into their ears, "Little monkey and little snake give up, the spatial barrier is not something you can break, and the old man will not do anything to this little doll." ”
A snake and a monkey froze in place, but when they saw that the old man didn't make any movement, they couldn't help but shrink their pupils, this is a strong man.
The closer Ye Haoxian got to the old man, the more he could feel the intimacy emanating from the old man, which was a feeling from the soul.
Ye Haoxian stopped walking when he walked to the old man's side, and said a little respectfully, "Old man, why are you here?"
The old man seemed to have known about Ye Haoxian's arrival, and said slowly, "Child, this sentence should be asked by me, why did you come here? ”
Ye Haoxian told the old man why he entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range and how he came here, and he told everything as it was.
I don't know why, in front of the old man, he has a feeling of facing his loved ones, so he knows everything.
The old man listened slowly on the side and nodded, "You are very honest, you are an honest good boy, I can answer some of your questions, you can rest assured that I know astronomy and geography, and I can help you solve some doubts." It's a reward for being honest, but there are some things I can't talk about. ”
The old man didn't show a high-minded look towards Ye Haoxian, but he was still unusually casual and amazing.
"Really?
The old man nodded and looked at Ye Haoxian with a smile, his eyes containing encouragement.
Ye Haoxuan no longer hesitated, and sat cross-legged in front of the old man, "Old man, do you know why I can't cultivate?"
The old man looked at Ye Haoxian, as if he knew that he would ask this question, "Because you have a seed in your body!"
"Is a seed in my body?"
The old man nodded, "To be precise, in your dantian, it absorbed all the spiritual power in your dantian, causing you to not have the slightest cultivation." ”
"Can you take it out?" Ye Haoxian spoke, his eyes revealing a plea.
The old man scratched his head with a smile on his face, "I can't take it out, but it can give you a great opportunity, and it can make you have a strong enough cultivation." ”
"Grandpa, what a big opportunity?"
"I'll talk about this later, do you have any questions?"
"Do you know where my parents are?"
The old man looked at the jade pendant on Ye Haoxian's waist, "They have always been by your side, but they are not by your side, they are waiting for you." Wait for you to grow and grow into a strong person who can stand up to the sky. ”
"Is it a strong man who stands up to the sky? Ye Haoxian spoke confidently.
After knowing the news of his parents, Ye Haoxian sighed, this should be the best result.
"Grandpa, do you know my physique? Why do these monsters be so affectionate to me, why can they understand what I say?"
The old man did not have the slightest impatience, and Shifang carefully helped Ye Haoxian solve these puzzles, but he said ambiguously, and he didn't seem to want to tell him the details.
"Your physique is very special, he will bring you a lot of help, in short, it will be harmless to you, it is precisely because of your unique physique that those demon beasts will be so intimate with you, and what you say sounds like beast language to them. ”
The old man didn't point out what kind of physique Ye Haoxian was, but only said that it was very special, and it was precisely because of the special physique that it led to such a result.
The Snake and the Crimson Flame Monkey outside the spatial barrier had to listen to what they were talking about first, but unfortunately, the spatial barrier had cut everything off, and nothing could pass through it except time.
Of course, if you are strong enough to break the spatial barrier, that's a different story.
The snake and the red flame golden-eyed monkey who stayed in place were really bored, but they were still honestly waiting for Ye Haoxian to come out outside the spatial barrier, they were very troubled, because they couldn't get in.
"Child, do you have any other questions?" the old man looked at Ye Haoxian and asked.
Ye Haoxian hesitated for a moment and said, "Old man, do you know why I have a Heavenly Ancient Tree Divine Sense in my mind?"
"Tell me what it looks like. ”
The old man scratched his head, as if he had thought of something, and his thoughts probed towards Ye Haoxian's mind, but he was blocked by a barrier. The old man frowned, and did not do anything else out of the ordinary.
After Ye Haoxian described the specific appearance of the ancient tree, he looked at the old man.
The old man had already guessed something in his heart, but he didn't say it, "I'm afraid you have to explore this yourself, after all, I said that there are some things that I can't say." ”
Ye Haoxian nodded and didn't think much about it, anyway, the Heavenly Ancient Tree Divine Sense wouldn't harm him, otherwise he wouldn't have helped him before.
"Is there any other problem? I can help you out, as long as I can. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he looked at Ye Haoxian, which was equivalent to giving him a chance.
Do you want a divine weapon or an imperial weapon?do you want a supreme divine pill?do you want a divine medicine?or do you want a body refining divine skill that can make me a strong man?Ye Haoxian asked in his heart, and after thinking about it for a long time, he made a decision.
Ye Haoxian knelt in front of the old man, touched his head to the ground, and begged. "Grandpa, can you accept me as an apprentice? Don't worry, I'm very obedient and obedient. ”
The old man frowned, as if in thought, and finally he shook his head. "I don't want to accept disciples anymore, if it was before, maybe I would accept you as a disciple, but now I'm lacking. ”
The old man's eyes are full of vicissitudes, what kind of eyes are they? He seems to have experienced endless years of washing, full of vicissitudes of life baptism, from the old man's eyes can see the rise and fall of the planet, can see the sinking of the sun, the vicissitudes of the sea.
Ye Haoxian's body trembled slightly, and he didn't make any movements, still maintaining this posture.
The old man was very entangled in his heart, and finally he spoke, "As long as you can jump off the cliff, I will give you a chance." ”
Ye Haoxian got up, looked at the bottomless cliff, and felt the wind blowing in his ears.
"Grandpa, is this true?"
The old man nodded and didn't say much, but closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Do you really want to jump? You don't know anything about what is down there, if it's a river, you might still survive, if it's a rock, you'll be dead, are you really sure?
If you don't jump, you may be just a waste for the rest of your life, so what are you hesitating about? The opportunity is right in front of you, and it's up to you whether you can seize it or not.
Ye Haoxian was overcoming the fear in his heart, and finally he gritted his teeth and jumped down, a huge wind blew him in the air and kept churning, Ye Haoxian looked down. The bottom of the cliff seems to have no end, it is pitch black, and it seems to go straight to the depths of the earth!
Ye Haoxian could only feel the feeling of falling and the wind, and he couldn't feel anything else, he couldn't see or touch, he just felt that his body was constantly falling.
Finally, after some time, light appeared in front of his eyes.
"Wake up!"
The old man spoke, Ye Haoxian woke up, but found that he was still sitting cross-legged in place, and did not jump off the cliff, and he couldn't help but be a little happy.
"Old man, can you accept me as a disciple?" Ye Haoxian said tentatively.
The old man shook his head and nodded again, "I'll give you a chance, as long as you can break through the Eight Desolations Sword Array and the Illusion of Life and Death, I will accept you as a closed disciple!"
Ye Haoxian nodded, his eyes full of determination.
The old man smiled slightly and stood up, "Then let's start the assessment now!"
