The black giant bird traveled all the way west along the Great Wilderness River, this bird was extremely miraculous, more fierce than Kunpeng, more majestic than the phoenix, lighter than the flying swallow, more noble than the white crane, it was actually the legendary holy beast Xuanniao. Xuanniao was originally an innate beast in chaos, and after the Chaos Yuan Emperor opened up this world, he gave him a priesthood, guarded the North Pole, and maintained the stability of this world with the true dragon, the tiger, and the giant turtle, and the status of the respected was incomparable.

The ink crow stood on the broad back of the Xuanniao, and looked into the distance, and behind him stood an immature young man, his only disciple, both of whom were wearing ink-colored robes, almost blending in with the Xuanniao. Far away is the end of heaven and earth, a vast and barren land, where the most powerful desolate beasts in the world lurk. There is also a sacred mountain, towering into the sky, where the world's calamities began.

The immature boy pinched his hand very seriously, and recited the incantation again, only to feel that the spiritual power in his body was like a stream of water, running in a very special path, and finally condensed on the dragon's acupoint, and a black paper kite flowed out from between his fingers, and dissipated after only two flutters of wings.

He sighed, secretly thinking that his talent for cultivation was so poor, when would he be able to send the black paper kite turned into spiritual power to the nameless village like his master. He really wanted to do this little thing himself, so that he could help the master.

Mo Crow looked back and saw that the apprentice had a sad expression at a young age, and comforted him with a smile, "It's already good, the movements are very skillful, and the magic trick has finally not been mispronounced, but the mind is weaker." ”

The young boy lowered his head in embarrassment, this spell was too complicated for him, he took apart the trick and the spell and practiced it for countless days and nights, and barely remembered it completely, all because he was too stupid, if he also had the talent of a master, he would soon be able to learn this spell, how good it would be. It's just that personal talent can't be changed, and the young man only has to work harder, "Master, how can I make my mind stronger?" he asked weakly, blushing.

"It's hard to explain. "Mo Crow is also a little difficult, to be honest, he is not good at teaching apprentices, he has been alone for a long time, this little spell is just a small trick for him, it seems to be naturally realized, as for why this happened, he actually can't tell. Seeing that his apprentice was a little lost, he couldn't bear it, so he said uncertainly, "It's good if you think about it a few more times in your heart." ”

When the young man heard this teaching, he really recited silently in his heart, "Little paper kite, you must fly back to the nameless village." He recited it dozens of times in a row before he used the transformation spell again, and the result was not better than the previous one, but because he was so nervous, the little paper kite was gone before he even had time to flap his wings.

Both of them smiled helplessly.

Xuanniao sighed and said: "Child, don't toss around, not to mention your mediocre talent, even if you are a genius of cultivation, how much can you do in this era of depleted spiritual energy? If you don't cultivate enough, you won't be able to keep the Transfiguration Technique for a long time, let alone bring the information back as you wish. If it was in the era of the Mixed Yuan Emperor, the heaven and earth were full of spiritual energy, and such a small spell could be used freely with a few tosses. ”

The young man was a little deflated when he heard this, the cultivation of this world only relied on the little power contained in the spirit stone, which was the source of sorrow. From Xuan Bird's mouth, he had heard too much about the magnificence of the era of the Mixed Yuan Emperor, and he couldn't help but be fascinated, and he thought that if he was born in that era, even if he couldn't become the most outstanding monk, at least he would be able to spend his life smoothly. The abundant aura between heaven and earth is enough for everyone to cultivate with peace of mind, and they will no longer compete with each other, "Isn't this world able to return to the way it was before?" the young man asked in a low voice.

"It was impossible to do that before, the Great Dao of the world is broken, just like people ruined the sea of qi, it is impossible to cultivate, and when the spirit stones of this world are gone, you weak humans will become food for desolate beasts sooner or later." ”

The boy turned blue with fright and shrunk his neck. Hearing Xuanniao's words, he remembered the scene of that day, it was the darkest moment of life, there was no light, his ears were filled with the crisp sound of teeth biting bones, the air was filled with blood, and the atmosphere was extremely gloomy, as if he was in hell.

He had even forgotten about his fear, and just waited quietly for the fatal bite. Now that I think about it, I have added a little fear to my heart. He was slightly luckier than the others, and when the master arrived, he became the last survivor, and a candle lit up in the darkness. Once the flame of hope is lit, he will do his best to care for it, and the boy has done everything he can to keep it on, he really doesn't want to fall into the dark abyss again.

The young man's cultivation roots are very ordinary, he is a gifted person, which means that since birth, he has been abandoned by this world, and precious resources like spirit stones will not be wasted on useless people, he has known since he was a child that he was born a useless person, and useless people have no need to continue to struggle, this is the way of survival of human beings, survival of the fittest.

The old people said that the overflow of mercy would only make everyone end together, and then, on a moonless crescent night, he was thrown into the wilderness with a dozen of his kind. None of them struggled, the reason has been made clear, they are all superfluous people, instead of doing some useless resistance, it is better to pray quietly and have a good birth in the next life.

Mo Crow smiled, "This world will recover sooner or later, don't say those discouraged words." He smiled and released a black paper kite, and there was a faint flash of divine light in the distance, "No matter what form it takes, the saint will always leave us a way to live." ”

The boy laughed too, believing his master's words.

At the end of the Great Wilderness River, the scene was barren, the beasts roared, and the towering Sword Ridge Mountain Peak was shining brightly, and the vision was extraordinary, like a lighthouse standing in this world. The lighthouse does not illuminate the darkness of the barren wasteland, but makes the place look even more sinister.

Somehow, the ink crow suddenly wanted to go to the top of the mountain to see, the divine light emitted from the mountain had an irresistible attraction to cultivators. The purpose of cultivating is to understand the essence of human beings, the origin of the world, and the half-hidden divine light seems to be the ultimate answer.

The Great Bird had been hovering on the outskirts of the barren land, not daring to go any deeper, and the breath here made it tremble.

"I can only help here, this place is too evil. "If you insist on going, you're asking for your own hardship." ”

"Aren't you a Destiny Bird? How can you be afraid of these ghosts? Mo Crow frowned, to be honest, he had long been accustomed to relying on the majesty of this innate holy beast to walk in all directions, and the desolate beasts avoided it one after another, which felt like the emperor was on patrol. In this great wilderness, it is better to have more than less, because nothing here will be easy.

"This title has long been outdated, and I have already thought of a new name for myself, and I will spare my life. As long as I don't look for my own death, my lifespan is endless, even if the world returns to chaos, I can still live, maybe live more freely, I don't have to follow you humans around all day long, and sleep in the north in peace. ”

The young man could only listen, there were some things that he could not intervene in, he was still far away, he could only stick to the body of the Xuanniao like a little milk baby, not leaving an inch, and that ray of divine light was just a good-looking firework in his eyes.

"Is this place so scary? "The ink crow is a little unbeliever, although this place is rumored to be very evil, but people are always curious, and they will have doubts if they have not tried it themselves.

Xuanniao said angrily, "You people, it's always like this, for so many years, you are not the first person to ask me this stupid question." The man in front of him became a piece of dirt in the barrenness, and the later ones still didn't listen to persuasion, always thinking that I was scaring them. I can't find a few creatures of my level in this wilderness, so I need to scare you humans?"

The ink crow shook its head, this Xuanniao is older than this world, and the reason why it deigned to cooperate with humans was just to find the Mixed Yuan Emperor who had something to do with it. Thanks to the help of Xuanniao, he was able to swim unhindered in this great wilderness.

Xuan Miao lightly landed on a huge mountain rock, it had a premonition that its bitter heart probably had no effect, human beings did not listen to persuasion, its exhortation was more like a routine business, "Let me tell you, in these endless years, there are many people who stubbornly go up the mountain, and in the end, none of them can come out." Back then, Aragami descended to this world from this mountain, and that thing was terrifying, subduing the true dragon, killing the Lihu and the giant turtle, and defeating the Mixed Yuan Emperor, only I escaped the catastrophe with the Shadow Technique. "When it talks about these, it seems a little meaningful, the Escape Technique is its life-saving spell, this Xuanniao's combat power may not be the top existence in the Great Wilderness, but this life-saving spell is also a great mastery, and it is really not easy to slip away from the existence of a saint-level being.

Aragami, the source of disaster in this world, Mo Crow couldn't help but shudder when he heard this name. He knew very well that every thousand years passed, Aragami would come with a mission, and then bring destruction to the world, quietly watch it all end, and then quietly disappear without a trace.

Every time it comes, it is in a different form, and no one knows what the essence of Aragami is, maybe the answer is on the top of the mountain in front of you, and uncovering this answer may be the key to ending all this.

Mo Crow took a breath and suddenly said, "There are too many incomprehensible things in this world, maybe only by going up the mountain to see, can I find the answer I want." ”

The boy understood the danger that Master was going to face, and he did not weep, but prayed in his heart, as he did when he was among the minions of wild beasts, he was weak and insignificant, and he believed that Master was a man who could perform miracles.

The big bird just sighed, "Do you have to go? You humans are so weak, just wait for the wheel of fate to run over, as you said, the saints will always leave you a glimmer of life." You can't fight for fate. ”

Mo Crow smiled lightly, "It's because of weakness, so it's not a pity to die." If you can't do what you want to do before you die, it's a pity. If I don't get out, the mission of the ink crow will be fulfilled by you. He smiled at the young man who had some inferiority complex, "Actually, I was born stupid, only because of my rich family background, I supported some cultivation early, and my realm is not high so far, so I can only rely on Xuanniao to do some probing things." This kind of thing is the most important, we act as the eyes and ears of the nameless village, and it doesn't necessarily take much advanced cultivation to do this well, but more care and courage. ”

The young man nodded, and he vaguely understood why Master had to do this. They have almost walked in every corner of this great wilderness, and this barren place is the last unknown.

The explorer can't let the unknown go, he must go up.
