Many people know that Shendu has a well-developed water system and rivers all over the world.

There are dozens of great rivers flowing through the divine capital!

The river is surging, rushing to the river and the sea.

One of the rivers points straight to the north, which is the most magnificent water system in the Shendu, and the part in the Shendu, known as the 'Fengyue River', is the most prosperous and extravagant place in the Shendu.

However, the outer part of the river flows northward, eventually joining the Northern Styx, which is called the 'North Styx River'.

It is said that-

At the end of the North Styx River, is the place where the ancient royal family originated.

Before the fireworks festival, it rained heavily throughout the gods, causing the water level of the rivers in the gods to rise a lot, and the rivers gathered from the mountains rushed through the gods and rumbled towards the northern Stygian Sea.

To the north of the divine capital, there is a vast forest.

The North River rolls through the forest, and the dusky yellow water splashes and uproots many trees.

The rain was falling heavily, and the little beasts in the forest were hiding.

Right on the edge of the North Styx River in the corner of this forest—

An old man in a tattered robe and a dark yellow bamboo hat sat on the ground in the mud. He held a slender bamboo pole in his hand, and a thin line was held at the top of the bamboo pole, which fell into the river, and one floated and trembled in the waves.

The torrential rain caused muddy water to splash, and the old man's body was already covered with muddy water, and his face was also a little dirty.

However, he was smiling, contented, and very comfortable.

Looking at his appearance, this person was about fifty years old, and he already had some gray hair on his head, and his face began to grow some wrinkles, and his back was slightly rickety.

As soon as he sat down by the river, he did not know how many hours had passed.

At this moment, a little girl of five or six years old, riding a little fragrant pig companion beast, jumped up and down in the forest, and passed by with joy.

She had a good time, and along the way, she let out the laughter like a silver bell, mixed with the sound of the rainstorm and Jiang Tao, which was particularly strange.

"Grandpa, are you fishing?" the little girl saw the angler, and curiously jumped off the little fragrant pig and came to the old man's side.

"Yes, girl. The old man said with a smile.

"But the river is so fast, the little fish won't take the bait, and your bait will soon be washed away. The little girl said seriously.

"But the river is turbulent, so big fish will come out of the hole. Grandpa loved to catch big fish. The old man said.

"Greedy! The big fish has a lot of strength, and you can't mention it, old man!" said the little girl with a grin.

"You girl, you dare to underestimate grandpa, you wait, grandpa will catch a big fish for you now. The old man smiled.

"Hmph, then I'll have to take a good look!" the little girl sat down.

On this rainy day, she also played with mud, like a mud doll. However, the mud can't hide the innocence and purity of the little life, those eyes blink and blink, like jewels on a rainy day, the more the raindrops wash away, the more thorough.

Half an hour later—

"The big fish is coming!" the old man lifted the fishing rod up, and sure enough, a fish was hooked, and after struggling in the water for a while, the old man lifted it.

The two of them took a closer look, and the fish they caught was only two fingers wide, which was not enough for a small fragrant pig.

"Hee-hee, what a little fish, grandpa, you lost!" the little girl was overjoyed, clutching her stomach and laughing.

"Haha...... It's grandpa who bragged and made a mistake! Let you, a little girl, see the joke, ashamed, ashamed. The old man laughed and laughed for a while, then he picked up a scoop, filled it with some water, and put the little fish in it.

"Grandpa, are you going to give me the little fish?" asked the little girl, blinking her big eyes.

"You guessed it, that's smart. The old man laughed.

"That's right, my parents say I'm smart!"

"Do you like raising small fish?"

"Thank you, grandpa, I will definitely raise the little fish. The little girl took the scoop, her eyes sparkling and shining with a small light.

Because, this is a colorful little fish, although it is small, but it is really beautiful.

"It's so good, grandpa also likes to raise small fish. He smiled, paused, and said, "Girl, you accompany grandpa to talk about whether it's okay, grandpa is lonely." When I'm older, I always like to think wildly. ”

"Okay!" the little girl sat down beside the little fish and said, "Is there only one grandfather?" ”

"Well, for a long time, it was just me. However, grandpa likes to fish and raise small fish, and sometimes he is not so lonely. The old man said.

"But Xiao Yu'er can't speak, and he can't help grandpa relieve his boredom. The little girl said.

"You don't understand this, baby, listen to grandpa say, any life, even if it is a small fish, it has thoughts. This is the beauty of life, it is not a number, it is born and begins to experience things, and from these things, it has its own thoughts, maybe a small fish has very few experiences and ideas, but hundreds of thousands, millions of them come together, and it is called 'Tao'. ”

"What is Tao, Grandpa, is it something delicious?" asked the little girl, tilting her head.

"Yes, the Tao is very delicious, and grandpa likes to eat it the most. The old man said with a smile.

"People want to eat too. The little girl said.

"If you eat it, your mouth will rot, do you still eat it?"

"That'...... Forget it, I'll eat my mother's food, it's fragrant!" the little girl said.

"Haha, that's right, only rotten people like grandpa will eat those rotten things. ”

As soon as he said this, there was a shouting voice in the distance.

The little girl was startled, stood up and said anxiously: "Grandpa, my father and mother have come to look for me, I will go home first, and I will come to play with grandpa next time!"

"Okay. The old man nodded.

"Piggy, go. The little girl moved vigorously, turned over and rode on the little fragrant pig, still holding the water ladle in her hand.

"Goodbye, old man!"

"Goodbye, baby. ”

Maybe she was in a hurry, but the little fragrant pig mixed it, and the little girl fell down and fell into the mud.

"Wow!" the little girl cried.

The old man hurriedly put down the fishing rod, stepped forward to help her up, took out a cloth from his arms tremblingly, wiped the little girl's face clean, and muttered: "At a young age, be careful when walking, many people fall down once, and they will never get up again." ”

"Grandpa, the little fish is gone!" said the little girl, crying.

"It's okay, grandpa look for it, don't worry, grandpa is a small fish, hundreds of millions of small fish. The old man said with a smile.

Suddenly—

A young man and a woman flashed out of the forest.

At a glance, they saw an old man holding the little girl and smiling ugly, while the little girl was still sobbing.

"Shameless old man, get out!" the man came up in an instant and kicked the old man in the chest, and the old man flew out, crashed into a tree, and didn't get up for a long time.

"Daddy, you...... You ......" The little girl was so frightened that she couldn't speak at all, and tears flowed down her face.

"Come home with Daddy, let you run around! Now the world is chaotic, there are so many bad people, do you come out to find death?" the man was a little stern and pulled the little girl up.

"Grandpa, old grandpa......" The little girl had tears in her eyes, looking at the old man who fell to the ground, before she could say anything, in the blink of an eye, she was taken away by her parents along with the companion beast Little Fragrant Pig.

The rain poured down, and the rain curtain engulfed the whole world, and the water in the low-lying areas of the forest became more and more, almost drowning the old man who had fallen to the ground.

He was motionless on the ground.

But actually—

His eyes were kept open, quietly looking at the muddy water in front of him.

"Got you!" he suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed a small colorful fish in the muddy water.

"I still want to run out of the palm of my hand, naughty!"

He stood up, holding the little fish in one hand, arranging his coat in the other, and putting the bamboo hat on his head.

Then, step by step, I walked to the river, looking at the Shendu for a while, and looking at the end of the North Styx River for a while, and seeing deeply.

He knew that it was his hometown.

"The way of heaven is limited, life and death are ruthless, people are like fish, but unfortunately the river is surging, there are countless killing opportunities, and the floating life is the sea of suffering, who can escape......"

Tears flowed down his cheeks.

"A person, a dream, a helpless, a helpless. ”

He looked at the small fish in his hand, sighed, and said, "If you want to live, you can only eat fish, alas......"

He was in pain.

But—

He stuffed the live little fish in his hand into his mouth, the first bite was cut in two, the blood was dripping, and the second bite was swallowed directly.

Perhaps it was the fishbone that clicked in his throat, and he coughed violently, revealing a look of pain.

But in the end, he laughed.

After laughing, he picked up the fishing basket, picked up the fishing rod, sorted out the clothes and hats, stepped on a pair of tattered bamboo shoes, and swayed step by step along the North Styx River in the direction of the divine capital.

In the rain, he opened his mouth and said happily:

Don't listen to the sound of the forest beating the leaves,

Why don't you groan and walk slowly.

Bamboo cane and mango shoes are lighter than horses,

Who is afraid?

A cloud of smoke and rain is Ren Ping's life.

The spring breeze blows the wine and wakes up,

It is slightly cold, but the mountain is obliquely illuminated but welcomed.

Looking back at the bleak place,

When he returned, there was neither wind nor rain nor sunshine.

......

After the storm.

Shendu ushered in the refreshing autumn breeze, with a gentle breeze and a bright sun.

At night, the sky is cloudless, the stars are shining, and the sky is gorgeous, and it is beautiful.

People say that this will be the most beautiful fireworks festival in the capital of God.

The ancient royal family loved beauty, not only the beauty of beauties, but also the beauty of prosperity, the beauty of the capital, and the beauty of brilliant fireworks.

One night of fireworks, the world is reunited.

Every night, within a year, the people of Shendu will make their own fireworks into the sky, dyeing the night sky of Shendu into a thousand purples and red.

It was the most romantic night, and many lovers made an unswerving vow in the fireworks of the divine capital.

Some betray, some die.

And yet—

Li Tianming was in the torture of cultivating the immortal sword body, and he almost forgot the time.

Twenty-eight days have passed since the first Lan Ling Fire Sword Qi was fused.

In the past nearly a month, from rusty to proficient, from ordinary pain to extreme pain, from ghost crying wolf to heartbreaking, he persevered.

Within a month, half of the time was spent on realm cultivation and half of the time on the immortal sword body.

This is the best and most balanced, but also the most tiring way of practice, and he persevered.

Even Weisheng Yunxi said that he could withstand the torture of the sword qi pool, and he was improving every day, which was a miracle of willpower.

In fact, there is no miracle, Li Tianming just wants him and Concubine Jiang to be able to live well!

He only told himself at a time that it would be good to hold on for one more day.

And just like that, day by day.

Until the day before the fireworks festival brought -

He has fused more than three hundred sword qi and a hundred tribulation swords, and he has already successfully cultivated!

Even the glowing fire has already fused more than one hundred and seventy sword qi, which also belongs to the category of the Hundred Tribulation Sword!

In fact, the so-called Ten Tribulation Sword and Hundred Tribulation Sword are just titles, which are actually meaningless, because the power of the immortal sword body is calculated according to the number of fused sword qi.

Three hundred sword qi and one hundred sword qi are different.

Ninety-nine sword qi and one hundred sword qi, but there is no difference, reaching one hundred, there will be no transformation.

Li Tianming has tried it, and the power of his current Three Hundred Tribulation Sword, coupled with the Shenxiao Sword Technique, is indeed quite terrifying, and his life in this month is better than death!

"In the realm, we have also broken through to the fourth level of the Earth Saint Realm! After all, there are a lot of Saint Crystals now, and we will not hold back. ”

"Now me, compared to when I defeated Dongyang Zhuo, it seems that I have changed a lot!"

Not only the evolution of the companion beast, but also the improvement of the twofold realm, plus the strongest immortal sword body!

......

In the blink of an eye——

The fireworks festival has arrived.

This is the liveliest and most prosperous day in the Divine Capital.

In the early morning of this day, Li Tianming went to find Bai Mo, the king of the future hall.

He wanted to tell him.

Tonight, he's going to the palace!!
