Chapter Fifty-Six: Apprenticeship with Huo Lao

"Who? Who is talking?" Ye Fan was startled by the sudden sound, and immediately stood up from the ground, the Ziyun Sword was also held in his hand, and asked with vigilance.

"Hehe, little one, don't be nervous, welcome to the Flame Exquisite Tower. ”

The faint sound sounded again, and as the sound sounded, the flames on the six pillars around the hall all branched out a faint flame, and then gathered on the six-pointed star in the center, and the six-pointed star also lit up with a golden light, wrapping those flames, and finally formed a pale golden, somewhat illusory figure.

This figure is pale golden all over, it is an old man with a kind appearance, the old man stands there as if he is just an illusory shadow, but even if it is just a shadow, it brings Ye Fan unprecedented pressure, this pressure is not the pressure caused by the momentum exuded by the master, but a kind of pressure from the soul, as if a low-level creature sees a high-level creature of the same race, completely from the pressure of the soul.

"Who are you, and what is the Flame Exquisite Tower?" Ye Fan asked as he looked at the figure in front of him.

"Who am I? Hehe, it's been so long that I can't remember my name, so you can call me Huo Lao." This Flame Exquisite Pagoda is a treasure that I created with all my wealth in the beginning, and this hall where I am located is the first layer of the Flame Exquisite Tower. The pale golden shadow who called himself the old man said.

"It's been a long time, how long has it been, and why am I here?" Ye Fan asked in shock, you must know that it is almost impossible for people to forget their names, this is not a short time.

"I don't remember exactly how long it was, but it must have been thousands of years. And the reason why you can come here is because there is the Fire Yuan Force in your body, and after coming into contact with the outside formation, it will be automatically sent in. Huo Lao took the trouble to explain to Ye Fan.

"Thousands of years?how is it possible?How can a human being live for so long?" Ye Fan asked with a shocked expression, he never dared to imagine that a human could live to be thousands of years old.

"Hehe, as long as you have enough strength, there is nothing impossible, and in fact, I died thousands of years ago, and now all that remains is the soul, after using some secret methods, I can survive for a long time, and I can't leave this Flame Exquisite Tower, otherwise the soul will quickly dissipate and completely disappear in this world." Huo Lao smiled and said.

Huo Lao's words brought a great shock to Ye Fan, whether it was the time of Huo Lao's existence, or the existence of his soul, and so on, all of them made Ye Fan feel a little incredible.

"Then what is it that you brought me here, is it related to the fire element power in my body?" Ye Fan tried to calm himself down, and then asked, Ye Fan's brain was very smart, and he quickly guessed that Huo Lao's purpose was related to the fire element power.

"Yes, I have been waiting here for thousands of years, because I am only in a soul state, and I can't control the movement of the Flame Exquisite Tower, so before I die, I laid all this here to wait for your arrival, to be exact, to wait for the arrival of the person with the power of fire, fortunately, God opened his eyes, and finally made me wait when my soul was about to dissipate. Huo Lao said lightly.

"Then what are you doing all this for?" Ye Fan asked suspiciously.

"I did all this so that I could one day be resurrected and reappear in the outside world, but unfortunately my time is running out, and I don't know if I can make it to that moment. Huo Lao said with a sigh.

"What?, resurrection, can a person be resurrected after death?" Ye Fan's heart was even more shocked.

"Of course, in this world, nothing is absolute, and in the case of a soul like me, as long as I have the power of fire and have reached a certain strength, plus some special treasures, it is not impossible to resurrect. Huo Lao said.

"Then are you going to help you resurrect after I become stronger?" Ye Fan said.

"Yes, it's just that your current strength is too weak, I will try my best to help you improve your strength, I just hope that you can help me regain ** after my strength is enough." Huo Lao said with a little expectation.

Ye Fan thought carefully in his heart, there is no doubt that this is a very good opportunity for him, but he is not sure if Huo Lao has any other purpose, after all, this good fortune came too suddenly, so Ye Fan couldn't help but think, I don't know whether to agree.

"Don't worry, I'm only in the soul state now, and I don't have much of a threat to you, and before your strength is enough, I will definitely try my best to help you, let your strength improve as soon as possible, and let you completely control the fire element power in your body. Huo Lao seemed to know Ye Fan's concerns and said to him.

"Then what should I do?" Ye Fan finally decided to accept all this after thinking about it for a while.

"Hehe, for the time being, you don't have anything to do, you were seriously injured before, I have completely healed your injuries, and I have used the power accumulated by the Flame Exquisite Tower over the years to transform your body a little, and you will slowly realize the benefits of this to you in the future. Huo Lao said.

"Then what should I do in the future? Will I stay here to cultivate?" Ye Fan asked, in fact, he was still a little worried in his heart, if Huo Lao let himself stay in the Flame Linglong Pagoda to cultivate, then I am afraid that the time will not be short, and the family should be worried by then.

"That's not true, if you want to become a real strongman, you must go through constant battles, otherwise you will never be able to become a real strongman. Now I give you two choices, first, I will teach you everything I have, and second, if you don't worship me as a teacher, I will still help you become a strong man, but I can't teach you some precious exercises and martial arts. ”

When Huo Lao was talking, Ye Fan could obviously hear the expectation in his voice, obviously Huo Lao hoped that Ye Fan could choose to worship him as a teacher.

"I also want to worship you as a teacher, but I already have a master, and my master is very good to me, and I will never betray my master. Ye Fan said.

"Hehe, there's no problem with this, there are a few really strong people who have only one teacher, when I was cultivating, I worshiped three masters before and after, and finally I was fortunate enough to achieve the later achievements. Huo Lao said with a smile.

"This, then I'll just call you teacher for the time being? I want to go back and ask my current master, do you want to formally apprentice?" Ye Fan asked expectantly.

After hearing Ye Fan's words, Huo Lao suddenly fell silent, he could understand Ye Fan's thoughts, but his existence could not be exposed, otherwise it would bring Ye Fan huge trouble, and might even lead to his enemies back then.

"No, you remember, you can't tell anyone, including those closest to you, about my existence, otherwise it will probably kill you, and even I may disappear completely. After a moment of silence, Huo Lao finally spoke, although his tone was still flat, but his words were very firm.

Ye Fan heard Huo Lao's words, although he said it very firmly, Ye Fan could still hear the desire and expectation in Huo Lao's words, obviously, Huo Lao hoped that Ye Fan could worship him as a teacher.

"Well, I agree to be a teacher, and I promise not to tell anyone about your existence. Ye Fan thought about it, and finally agreed to Huo Lao's proposal.

"Okay, haha, I finally have an apprentice, I finally have a successor, it's great. After hearing Ye Fan's agreement, Huo Lao immediately laughed happily, because he was so excited, even his illusory figure seemed to have ripples, as if it would dissipate at any time.

The reason why Ye Fan made up his mind, on the one hand, was to become stronger, and on the other hand, because of his sympathy for Huo Lao, you must know that Huo Lao was alone in this tower for thousands of years, and what kind of painful thing was to be lonely and lonely for thousands of years, which made Ye Fan have strong sympathy for this strong man thousands of years ago.

After making up his mind, Ye Fan no longer hesitated, and immediately knelt down, and the apprenticeship of three kneels and nine bows was quickly completed.

"Master is above, disciple Ye Fan has saluted you. After Ye Fan finished the apprenticeship ceremony, he said respectfully to Huo Lao.

"Okay, good boy, your name is Ye Fan, it's really good, you are the only disciple of the teacher, the teacher has never accepted a disciple before, lest before the soul dissipates, he will not be able to pass on his own skills, now it's okay, with you as a disciple, the teacher can be regarded as a death without regrets." Huo Lao said happily.

"Master, don't worry, the disciple must work hard to cultivate, and I hope that I can reshape the master as soon as possible. Ye Fan said firmly.

"Good apprentice, okay, those things can't be rushed, you have to work hard to cultivate first, and then talk about the existing self-preservation power. Huo Lao's voice seemed to be a little choked.

Next, Huo Lao and Ye Fan talked a lot of things, and he didn't say much about Huo Lao's previous things, but said that Ye Fan's strength was still too weak now, and it would not be good for him to know too much.

And Huo Lao also figured out all the circumstances of Ye Fan, including Ye Fan's cultivation techniques and martial arts, etc., and finally gave Ye Fan simple guidance, although it was only a simple guidance, but it also benefited Ye Fan a lot.

What made Ye Fan happiest was that Huo Lao still thought that he was a powerful alchemist, which made Ye Fan overjoyed, with Huo Lao's existence, it would be of great help to Ye Fan's strength and alchemy.
