Chapter 2: The Eternal Sea of Trees

"In this world... Are there any gods?"

Quiet......

It was extremely quiet, and as soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, even the wind stopped, and the real needle drop could be heard.

"Big brother, what are you talking about?, how can you question the gods?" The first to react was the night fire, and he wanted to run over but was stopped by the night wind.

Then came Take, who didn't speak, but her eyes showed a look of reproach, and she stretched out her hand to signal Nightblade to apologize quickly.

But Nightblade remained unmoved, still kneeling there, staring at the Great Priest in the distance without blinking.

"The gods..."

The Grand Priest sighed softly, and this sigh seemed to come from the sky, which moved everyone, and a feeling of pity came from the heart, and even the moon peeked out of the clouds.

"Let me ask you, what is a god?"

"Above the nine heavens, proud of the earth, only to be a god. ”

"How is there a god, and what is the absence of a god?"

"If there is a god," Nightblade whispered, lowering his head, "please ask the gods to remove my curse and make me an ordinary person." ”

"If there is no god..."Nightblade raised his head and looked blankly ahead, "let me guard this place for the rest of my life, and avoid causing trouble to the world." ”

Everyone was in an uproar, but they didn't expect Night Blade to say such a thing, Zhu looked at him distressedly, and wanted to step forward to appease him several times, but was pressed back by Lan with his eyes.

"All things are born at the beginning, there are no evil thoughts, the teachings of the predecessors, and the thoughts are born from the heart. When the high priest opened his mouth, it was jerky and difficult to understand, and everyone frowned, but no one understood.

Only Nightblade's eyes lit up, and he leaned down respectfully and said in a trembling voice, "Please guide me, honorable priest." ”

"Good and evil, the difference between a thought, don't be afraid, external force is an external force after all, your own will is the foundation of your foothold, don't let that external force shake your heart, but let your will dominate that external force. ”

As the priest spoke, Nightblade remembered it word for word, and when it was over, he stood up.

"You understand now?" asked the archpriest.

"Thank you, sir, I see. Nightblade bowed his head slightly.

Hearing this, the great priest nodded slightly, and did not say much, but Zhu understood and guided the three of them to leave the shrine, and the surrounding guards also dispersed silently.

The clouds were heavy, and only the high priest, Lan, and two children with lanterns were now left on the high steps.

Suddenly, a gust of wind struck, the clouds rolled in the sky, faintly one after another purple light penetrated down, countless dead trees were blown by the strong wind and the branches trembled, and the black cat on the wall made a seeping cry, and disappeared into the shadows with a swish.

"Here we are..."

The Great Priest frowned, her eyes opened slightly, and if anyone saw it, she would be absolutely shocked, her eyes were full of turmoil, as if they contained a vast galaxy.

The wind became stronger and stronger, blowing the gorgeous divine costume of the great priest, Lan was blown into a flurry of hair, and the two children were even more unbearable, and they retreated again and again and almost fell to the ground.

Suddenly, the wind stopped, and everything that was restless fell silent, like a gust of mountain wind blowing by, leaving no trace.

"My lord, the lamp!" Lan exclaimed.

At this time, the two children looked stunned, and the candle flame flickered in the two lanterns they were carrying, turning from red to purple, and through the thin lantern shroud, a faint strange light was emitted, and the word "Yudai" became strange by this purple light.

"It's time..."

An indifferent voice came like a ghost, not loud, but it spread to every corner of the shrine.

"No, it's too early, he's still a kid. The Grand Priest replied.

"Give him to me... It's just a matter of time..."The owner of the voice seemed to be a ghost from the underworld, and there was no trace of emotional fluctuation in his words, and it was extremely cold.

"Needless to say, even you have to abide by the agreement and not strike until your soul is revealed. The Grand Priest's tone was equally cold, and he did not back down at all.

"Fate is fate after all... No one can change it... When the soul awakens... War... It's bound to come..."

The sound faded away, the cold snap receded like a tidal wave, the restless clouds returned to calm, and the lanterns in the hands of the two children returned to their normal color.

"Lord Priest..."Lan finally loosened his tense nerves, and his heart was anxious, and he couldn't help but speak.

"Yes, he still has a lot of time, and I will guide him on the right path. The Grand Priest shook his head slightly, without saying much, and walked back into the Divine Pavilion with the two children.

The mist was steaming, and Lan was the only one left on the steps, she looked at the clouds, and finally sighed softly and turned to leave.

A breeze blew in the sky, dispelling the clouds, and a purple moon hung high in the clouds......

15 years later.

In the south of the Galaxy Continent, there is an ancient domain that covers an extremely wide area, called the Sea of Trees, which is a primeval jungle that has existed in the primeval period, no one can really say its origin, and no one can measure its range, in this sea of plants, up to the towering giant trees that are tens of millions of years old, down to the tender green sprouts that have just emerged, everywhere is full of green breath, worthy of the name of the Sea of Trees.

Everyone in this world knows that you can't enter the sea of trees at night, this ancient land is famous, countless beasts live in it, and countless killing opportunities are hidden under the night.

But at this moment, there are three people running for their lives.

"Don't worry, Xiao Yu, there is no danger here with your Night Fire Brother. "The one who runs at the front is a handsome young man, and his strong muscles can really bring people a lot of security.

"And you Brother Nightblade, don't worry~" The young man in second place followed, he was holding a huge white flower and running wildly, while stretching out his thumb with one free hand and smiling confidently.

"You two shut up!" Running at the back was a beautiful girl with long hair flying up, and even sturdy armor could not hide her bumpy devilish figure.

"Who is your guts???!!

Xiangyu Luohua, the purpose of the three of them to come to the sea of trees this time, as a treasure among the flowers, the nectar of this flower has the miraculous effect of curing bone pain, and the number is scarce, and it will only open at night, which also forces the three people to dive into the sea of trees in the middle of the night.

"Don't worry, I'm Xia Lan's strongest strength, I'm the invincible little ......"

Suddenly, just as Nightfire was boasting, Nightblade suddenly turned around, a pair of eagle eyes flashed with a cold light, and his right hand stretched out in the shape of a claw, and struck out quickly, hitting the cheeks of Nightfire into the trees!

"Humph!"

Nightblade snorted coldly, and with a strong arm, he dragged a black shadow out of the bushes!

"It's Athlon. ”

With the little moonlight, Nightfeather could see the thing clearly, it was a two-legged carnivorous dragon, and couldn't help but pout.

With a "click", Nightblade did not relent, and crushed its throat with his hand, leaving no aftermath.

"It's... Boss..."

Nightfire suddenly blushed, and just now he swore that he would protect everyone, but he was almost attacked by a small character.

"There. ”

But Nightblade ignored it, the chill in his eyes still not subsided, and he reached out to a bush not far away, his fingers already on the hilt of the knife at his waist.

"Wow"

The branches shook, and two more speed dragons came out, and when they saw the three of them, they opened their mouths one after another, revealing a row of sharp teeth.

"Damn the badget, disgrace me!"

Nightfire suddenly found an outlet, roared and pounced.

One person made a move, which immediately attracted the attention of the two speed dragons, and Night Feather and Night Blade took this opportunity to rush over, one by one, Night Feather pulled out a short knife from his waist, and raised a small round shield with his other hand and slapped it on the head of a speed dragon!

"Whew~"

With a terrible scream, the skull of the small bird dragon species could not withstand such a heavy blow, and suddenly the mouth and nose bleed, and one of the feet fell unsteadily, and the night feather did not stop, turned around on the spot, and the short knife in his hand flashed!

With a crisp sound, Nightfire screamed with both arms, twisting the neck of the dragon in his arms, and the battle was over in just a few seconds, and he didn't even have time to let Nightblade strike.

But in the next moment, Nightblade's eyes flickered, and the whole person rushed out like a sharp arrow!

"Whew!" the strong wind struck, and a trace of red light flashed on the sword in Nightblade's hand, and then disappeared into invisibility.

With a flash of the sword, countless plants and trees snapped, and at the same time, a bloody arrow burst out!

"There's another one. "That's when the night fire saw it.

"Athlon never break away from a group, these are just scouts, and their group is definitely not far from here. Nightfeather put away her dagger.

"It's not good..."

At that moment, Nightblade suddenly frowned, and beside him lay a headless Athlon corpse, blood still bubbling from its neck, apparently the one he had just killed.

"This is..."

Night Feather was shocked when she heard the words and looked at Nightblade's gaze, there was a huge hole in the abdomen of the Speeddragon, and many internal organs had slipped out, but the wound was not caused by Nightblade.

Nightblade's expression grew solemn, and he crouched down, ruffling through the athlon's wound with a dagger and removing something from it.

It was a black hair, shining a different kind of shine in the moonlight.

"That hair!" Nightfire's eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't help but exclaim.

"Swift Dragon!" Night Feather covered her mouth.

"Get out of here, you can't fight that beast at night!"

"No—" Nightblade frowned at this moment, and he felt the hair on his forehead bobbing to the left.

"The wind has changed, we may have been ......"

"Howl!"

At this moment, an incomparably penetrating howl suddenly sounded! It was even more piercing in the quiet of the night!

Countless birds were startled, small beasts fled, and a strong wind struck from the front, crushing the entire bush to the side!

"In a circle!"

With the order of the night blade, the three of them turned around and leaned their backs together almost instantly, and the three pairs of eyes kept scanning the surroundings, and the entire sea of trees seemed to be boiling at this moment!

Every instructor would repeatedly warn his disciples to never enter the sea of trees in the middle of the night unless absolutely necessary.

Beasts with crimson pupils will reap the lives of living creatures under the cover of night!
