Chapter 209: A Thousand Years of Persistence

In the territory of the Huaxia region, in an unknown palace, there is a room burning with countless candles, although these candles look ordinary in appearance, but the burning flame is a pale color full of death.

Not only that, but no matter how violently the candle burns, its core does not shorten in the slightest, as if it will burn forever and will not stop.

There are three rows of candles, each with a different number, the most at the bottom and the least at the top, and the size of the flame burning.

In the room, an old man in a gray robe was sweeping the floor with a broom, and although the floor was clean and spotless, his hands were still swinging mechanically, and his eyes were a little gray.

Suddenly, the flame of the candle on the top layer began to shake, and the flame became fainter and weaker, and finally disappeared after dozens of seconds.

The old man who swept the floor stopped his hands, glanced at the firelight with a vacant look, then sighed, slowly leaned the broom against the wall, and walked out of the gloomy room.

It was a blank hall, and there was nothing on it, except for a delicate crystal coffin.

This crystal coffin is spotlessly clear, carved with delicate patterns, and even some obscure patterns, and even a faint trace of energy can be seen flowing.

In the crystal coffin lay a man who looked older than the old man, he was small in stature, but his head looked a little larger than the average person, and at this moment he looked peaceful, as if he had fallen into a permanent slumber.

Suddenly, an old voice echoed through the hall.

"Jiang Nu, what I gave you is done?"

There are only two people in this hall, and if it is a person in a crystal coffin, it will be counted.

The old man bent over the crystal coffin: "I'm sorry master, the operation failed, the soul flame of the three of them has been completely extinguished, I think something happened to them." ”

"Oh? Could it be in the hands of a half-step star master-level martial artist? That voice was a little unexpected, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he dispatched three high-level war gods, but they disappeared without a sound? Ordinary God of War powerhouses must not be able to do this.

"No, master, according to our investigation, the last fragment of the key to open the Starry Sky Gate should be in the hands of a Star Disciple Seventh Order Martial Artist."

"Oh? It's a little interesting, a mere seventh-order star disciple can actually kill three ninth-order star apprentice-level martial artists, it should be a divine mind master or controller, right? The old voice asked.

"Master Mingming, the person who got the fragment is indeed a Divine Mind Master according to the information we have received." The old man said while not forgetting to pat a sycophant, "Master, it's just that this time the goal doesn't seem to be ordinary." ”

"Oh? How extraordinary? Could it be that he has some difficult background? ”

"That's not it, it's just that the target is a little strange at a young age, he seems to be in his early twenties this year, I'm afraid it should be an unprecedented achievement."

The mysterious voice paused suddenly, and then he said, "I think he must have received some inheritance from that era." ”

"But I don't care what the reason, that fragment has to be in my hands, I've been waiting for two thousand years! Exactly two thousand years! As long as I open the Star Path, I will be able to find the secret of eternal life! No matter what the cost, you're going to get that piece for me! ”

The old man seemed to hear a hint of anger from that voice, and hurriedly knelt down, his forehead pressed tightly to the ground, with a look of sincere fear: "Yes master, I will definitely get this last piece for you." ”

"Hey!" The old voice sighed, "You go down, solve this matter as soon as possible, remember, try not to provoke the 'Yan Huang' people, although I am not afraid of them, but I don't want to cause these little troubles." ”

"Yes, master." The old man slowly retreated, never daring to turn his back to the person lying in the crystal coffin.

After the gray-robed old man left, the man lying in the crystal coffin slowly opened his eyes, and he seemed to try to move his body, but he couldn't even shake his fingers anyway.

He had made countless attempts to do this, but each time it had failed, and this one was no exception.

He gave up trying, and his cloudy eyes were full of a trace of vicissitudes, but there was still three points of persistence and longing.

In his hand were several fragmented pieces, which together seemed to be a fist-sized disc, but a small piece of the core of the center was missing.

"As long as I put together the astrolabe, I have a chance to get rid of this half-dead body."

"Earthlings of the Mythical Age, you must have come to that vast universe through the star path opened by the Great Array of Astrolabes!"

......

After cleaning up the bodies of the three killers, Lin Xi returned home, and the three girls were relieved to see him come back safely.

"How's it going, it's not hurt, is it?" Xu Zinuo asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's just a few miscellaneous fish, they can't hurt me." Lin Xi spread his hands and turned around, indicating that he was not injured.

Xu Zinuo glanced at him: "Look at what you can endure, the three God of War powerhouses are actually called miscellaneous fish by you, how can others live!" ”

Lin Ling and Bai Mo giggled beside them, as if it was a very interesting thing to watch Lin Xi and Xu Zinuo bickering.

Lin Xi's face became a little serious: "But I think I should undoubtedly provoke an unknown organization, from today onwards, the three of you must be careful no matter what you do, if you find anything wrong, contact me immediately." ”

"What's going on? So serious? ”

"Hmm." Lin Xi nodded, "The other party can dispatch three high-level war gods at one time, and the strength must not be simple, I think I am afraid that I will have to ask the teacher about this matter." ”

Mu Cang is well-informed, and he must know more things than himself, and such a powerful organization will definitely not be without fame.

He remembered one of the Ghostfaces saying, "Starmark won't let you go." ”

It is very likely that these three high-level war gods are not the most powerful combat power of this organization, if you think about it from this angle, then you may really have gone on the opposite side of a behemoth.

This time it's just three high-level war gods, and he can still play it with ease, so what about next time? Could it be the pinnacle of the God of War, or even a star master-level powerhouse.

Even if he himself is not afraid, what if the opponent starts with his own relatives?

First of all, he must know what is the reason for this mysterious man's attention, so that he can eliminate all potential threats at the root.

Back in the room, Lin Xi immediately connected to the video screen with Mu Cang.

In the other part of the picture, Mu Cang is soaring in the sky, clouds passing by, and he is pouring wine into his mouth like a wild crane.

"Teacher."

"You kid, this time you're here to help you fight or borrow money?" Although Mu Cang's words were a little thorny, he could only hear full of doting from his tone, "By the way, what kind of Raush dragon scales are you talking about, did you clap your hands?" ”

"Haha, that's of course, thanks to your money, I was able to successfully buy what I wanted, isn't this to thank you!" Lin Xi said with a smile.

"Come on, you stinky boy was an out-and-out gnawing old man hundreds of years ago, just say, what is the matter with me this time!" Mu Cang obviously knew Lin Xi well.

"Teacher, I want to ask you about something."

"Oh? Just such a trifle? You say, your teacher, I have lived for more than 500 years and have never seen anything, as long as you don't ask me what aliens look like. Mu Cang is still full of nonsense.

"Teacher, have you ever heard of 'Star Marks'?" Lin Xi asked cautiously.

"Boom!" The wine jug in Mu Cang's hand shook obviously, and even a few drops of wine were spilled on his body.

His expression suddenly became extremely solemn: "What's the matter, you kid got into trouble with this mad dog?" ”
