Tian Yin, who is the demigod of Xiling, once said that there are demons lurking on the sacred mountain that are enough to destroy the world.

Since I am from the sacred mountain, my identity is ......

Ahem –

The sun was so hot that I almost lost a layer of skin on my body. My throat was so thirsty that I picked up the kettle next to me and was about to drink it, but there were only two mouthfuls of water in it.

After drinking, I threw the gourd to Mo Ruchu and said weakly: "Get some more water." ”

"Big brother, we are in the center of the desert, and the water element between heaven and earth is extremely scarce, and I have enough strength to condense it, and I can only get so much."

Murong Changqing lay in the blanket, only half of his face was exposed, and said in a hoarse voice: "Try to do a good job of sun protection to avoid unnecessary loss of body moisture." ”

"I hope I can get out of the desert before I dry it."

It was the first time I saw Lu Heming's gray face and heavy footsteps, and I couldn't help asking, "How long have we been walking in the desert?" ”

"One month and three days."

Lu Heming coughed twice, spit out a mouthful of phlegm with yellow sand, and said in a dry and hoarse voice: "After coming out of Xiling, Murong Changqing and I spent half a month just looking for you. ”

"Murong Changqing healed you, and I have exhausted my spiritual power, and most of my strength has also been consumed."

"If we can't find water again, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the three of us to get out of the desert."

Murong Changqing's face turned pale and closed his eyes weakly. Lu Heming looked disillusioned, and he didn't want to say a word.

In normal times, I can use my own Dao skills to discern the direction and find the place where the water element is most abundant between heaven and earth.

But now, I can't even move my little finger......

Seeing that both of them were exhausted into this appearance, I couldn't help but apologize and said, "The reason why I didn't merge my body and soul in the end is because I ......."

"Brother, you don't have to explain."

Lu Heming grinned at me, "A few of us have been born and died, no matter how you choose, we will not say a single 'no'." ”

Murong Changqing hesitated slightly, then frowned and asked, "If you do what you agreed before, we won't end up like this." ”

"At the last minute, why did you give up, and how did you get hurt like this!?"

I was about to tell the two of them what had happened to him, when Lu Heming's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to the bright lake in front of him and shouted, "The water is coming!" ”

"Wait a minute!"

Before I could stop it, Lu Heming plunged into the lake with a surprise thrust.

The moment his head stabbed down, the lake disappeared in an instant, replaced by loose sand.

Lu Heming's head was stuck in the sand, like an ostrich.

Murong Changqing couldn't help laughing twice, her lips were actually chapped with blood, she licked the fishy sweetness of the corners of her mouth, and stopped talking.

Lu Heming shook the sand on his head, and said with a disgraced face: "Brother, your eyes can break through delusion, why don't you remind me?" ”

"I didn't have time."

The sun is steaming so that the air is distorted, and it is extremely easy to cause a mirage.

Lu Heming rubbed his eyes, pointed ahead and said, "Brother, you see there's a guy in black over there, and it's also a mirage?" ”

"Black clothes?"

Following the direction pointed by Lu Heming, I saw a burly old man with a black stick and a gray cloth robe walking towards us.

The old man's face was weathered, his sideburns were white, and only a pair of eyes were as bright as electricity.

"Grandpa!"

I was so excited that I jumped off the cart, Lu Heming hurriedly helped me up, and asked in a panic, "Brother, what kind of hysteria do you have?" ”

The person in front of me is not a mirage, but my grandfather Li Banshan!

Originally, he was seriously injured, and when he stood recklessly, the whole person was dizzy and almost fainted.

Grandpa's figure flashed, and I don't know when he had already supported me from behind, and a warm energy spread along my grandfather's palm to my limbs.

It took me a breath to get my body back to normal.

When I saw my grandfather again, I felt like I had gone back to the countless years I had been in a cave a year ago......

My nose was sour, and my grandfather stroked my hair, "God, it is not easy for you to leave home for the first time, and you can suffer all kinds of grievances, and you have come to this step." ”

"Grandpa has predicted this catastrophe and will prevent it for you."

"In the future, grandpa will not be able to be with you all the time, so remember to be very careful. You are lowly and have no dimensional power, and you can be alone in this troubled world, and you must not be fierce and ruthless. ”

Grandpa's respectful teachings were very familiar, I wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes, and choked up in my throat: "Grandson, remember! ”

Since leaving the cave, I have been frustrated in every way, eating a trench and growing wise, from indecisive and ignorant, to decisive and arbitrary, and even exploring the mystery of Xiling alone.

A year later, I even forgot that I was only eighteen years old, and I had a grandfather who had sheltered me for fifty years!

Grandpa picked up the black stick in his hand, lightly pestle it towards the floor, and when he pulled out the stick, he brought out a pool of flowing spring water.

Lu Heming licked his lips, "Senior, what do you call it?" ”

"In the past, you called me Master Li."

"Thank you Li Ye for appreciating the water!"

The thirst was extreme, and Lu Heming didn't care about it, so he directly picked a pit on the ground, put his mouth up and drank violently.

Murong Changqing glanced at the spring and wanted to move his body to get up, but he lay back weakly.

Grandpa whispered, "You come with me to the side, I have something important to say." ”

"Wait a minute."

I filled a full cup with my own kettle and handed it to Murong Changqing, who was lying on the cart, and then followed my grandfather to the side.

Grandpa said solemnly: "I came here to tell you three things. ”

"The first thing is that you're looking for souls in the wrong direction. You are not the king of Xiling, but a baby from the sacred mountain, taken down by me. ”

"Therefore, if you want to recover your soul, you must go to the sacred mountain."

I hurriedly asked, "Where is Mount Kinabalu and how can I get in?" ”

Grandpa said: "The so-called sacred mountain is not a real mountain, but a forbidden continent. ”

"And to enter the sacred mountain, two conditions must be met."

"First, find the King of Xiling and completely disintegrate the Xiling Forbidden Land, only he can do it."

"The seal at the Divine Mountain requires a complete black jade stone to be broken, and you have collected half of it now, and it must not be too far from the time when you collect the other half."

"Second, everything you see in Xiling must not be revealed to anyone from now on, otherwise you will be killed!"

I was stunned and said, "Who is the King of Xiling, and how can he help me?" ”

"There's only so much I can reveal for you. When the opportunity comes, everything will be solved. ”

When the words fell, the grandfather suddenly said with a solemn expression: "The second thing, you must remember!" ”

"Don't get too close to Murong Changqing, otherwise there will be losses!"

I exclaimed, "Why!?" ”

Grandpa didn't answer, just stroked my hair and looked at me with love in his eyes.

Gradually, the grandfather's body began to become transparent and illusory, and after leaving the word "remember", he gradually disappeared without a trace.

Looking in the direction of my grandfather's disappearance, I fell into deep thought for a long time......

Appears out of thin air and disappears out of thin air.

Fetching water in the center of the desert and instantly recovering from my fatal injuries, I couldn't comprehend any of my grandfather's methods.

I originally thought that after being fearless in my Dao heart, I could already be regarded as a strong person in the Dao Sect.

But there are people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains.

It is in response to Grandpa's words: You are lowly and have no dimensional power, so you can be alone in this troubled world.

Compared to my grandfather, my strength is simply not enough.

It's just that I can't figure it out anyway, why didn't Grandpa allow me to approach Murong Changqing?

……

After drinking the water, Murong Changqing's complexion became much more ruddy, and his vitality was almost full, and he was walking in my direction.

She sighed: "Li Ye's strength is unfathomable, I only drank a few sips of water, and my strength has recovered as before." ”

"No wonder you have such cultivation at a young age, it turns out that you are guided by a famous teacher."

After regaining my strength, I could already sense that this place was not far from the edge of the desert, where the water was abundant.

When the four eyes touched, Murong Changqing's beautiful eyes dodged slightly, as if he was hiding something in his heart.

"If you're okay, it's okay."

"At the last moment, why didn't you fulfill your promise to let me take back my body?"

Murong Changqing was worried about this matter. But grandpa has a word first, and he can't reveal half a sentence about the forbidden land of Xiling, otherwise he will be killed.
