Chapter 32: The Mysterious Old Man

The quiet forest, full of white flowers, and the ice crystals condensed on the branches, glowing with a little light, are beautiful.

The first snow in Wuyun Village signaled that winter was coming, and the snow was not too big, but it was sprinkled for two days, covering the land with silver.

"The cold wind dances in the north snow, one piece and two pieces, like a dream.

Changyun Hidden Heavenly Mountain, one or two, misty and turbulent.

Ling Feng whispered, sentence by sentence, soft as a phantom.

The heart wants to cross the plains, one step at a time, and there is no trace.

Heaven and earth are at a glance, one eye and two eyes, and the sea is as wide as the sea.

Wandering to the universe, my body is like the sky, and my heart is proud of the nine heavens!"

Raising his eyes to look at the endless mountains in front of him were vaguely shrouded in snow-white, and the heaven and earth seemed to be pure without a trace of dust, Zhang Hao took a deep breath of the refreshing air, and suddenly a sense of pride appeared in his heart, and he looked up to the sky and groaned.

After sighing, he found a vacant land, Zhang Hao's mind was calm, and between his palms, he began to cultivate the Earth Pole Fist.

The figure seemed to be moving, and the distance of the footsteps was not far, but it brought out layers of phantoms, and where the feet landed, the residual snow was splashed, and occasionally some green grass was exposed on the ground.

"Bang"

A black force suddenly erupted from Zhang Hao's body, and all the snowflakes around it swinged, revealing the ground full of grass, which was particularly eye-catching in this large white grass.

Two hours later......

Slowly retracting his fist, Zhang Hao exhaled a breath of white air. Just two days after the end of the winter training, winter arrived without warning, and the temperature dropped a lot at once. However, for him, a few degrees below zero is nothing, so he still gets up early and comes to practice boxing in the mountains behind his home as always.

"It's weird!"

The faint black power of his body slowly flowed into the meridians and withdrew into his body, Zhang Hao sighed lightly. In the past few months, his strength has not retreated, but has declined. At first, he was really startled, but then the cultivation of the past few days made the big stone in his heart fall back again.

"I didn't expect the energy brought by the previous life to be incompatible with the heaven and earth aura on this shijie, fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the original strength was discharged from the body one by one, otherwise the two different liliang collided in the meridians, not only did the strength drop greatly, but even a bad one could lead to a heavy blow to the dantian. ”

Recalling the scene the morning before yesterday, Zhang Hao had palpitations, because all the energy that had sunk in his body before came from the previous shijie, and when he arrived at Zhengyuan Dalu, he also absorbed a lot of heaven and earth aura and sank in the dantian, but there was no accident.

Just like fighting, the previous strength is like a strong man, and the aura absorbed after that is like a little doll waiting to be fed, at the beginning everyone is safe, and the "strong man" occupies the dantian, but when the "little doll" gradually grows up, a rise and a retreat, the "strong man" becomes a teenager, the two are incompatible with each other, of course, there must be a conflict.

"The thing that Shijie brought with Zuihou is also completely gone. ”

Zhang Hao smiled bitterly, now the energy sinking in the dantian is all from the heaven and earth aura of the summoner shijie, and the strength that has been transformed into substance is much stronger than the previous strength, and the power has also increased by a few points. Judging from the phantom body mentioned by Menghai, Zhang Hao has now cultivated a sevenfold phantom body, but the heaven and earth aura of summoner Shijie is different from before, and now he can't do it to the point of condensing his strength into a phantom pill.

"According to the current cultivation speed, there should be about three years to go, and the sevenfold phantom body will be able to become a complete one, and when the time comes, the phantom pill will be condensed, and it is estimated that the strength can be improved a lot. ”

After that, Zhang Haoping stretched out his right hand and clenched his fist, and wisps of clear black power continued to roll out, gradually forming a black grinding disc that rotated extremely fast on the fist surface, and the corners of the grinding disc continued to spin out a trace of coldness, which was the yin and yang grinding disc evolved from the earth pole boxing, but the current yin and yang grinding disc is no longer the black and white yin and yang fish shape before, but has become black.

"Rustle"

An extremely slight sound sounded in his ears, Zhang Hao's heart moved slightly, and then his fist shook, dispersed the yin and yang grinding plate, turned his eyes to the forest not far from Xiangyou, and asked, "Who?"

In the forest, after a moment of silence, an old man walked out and said, "Young man, you have such a sharp reaction?"

With vigilance in his heart, Zhang Hao stared at the visitor without blinking. The old man was wearing a white robe, but at this time, the white robe was shining with a slightly shiny jet black everywhere, but the lower half of his body was as white as snow and maintained its original appearance, which was very strange.

Moving his gaze upward, the old man's white hair was a little scattered, his beard was also snow-white, hanging down to his waist, although his face was very old, wrinkles like deep ravines, but his face was quite ruddy.

"Old man, what are you?"

The other party's kind and kind face made Zhang Hao breathe a sigh of relief, his eyes stared at the other party's steady steps, he was still vigilant in his heart, after all, in this white and vast deep mountain old forest, Yujian was such an old man, but obviously not simple, which made Zhang Hao feel very weird.

With a warm smile on his face, he walked not far from Zhang Hao, and the old man stood still and said, "Young man, the old man is hungry, can you help me find something to eat?"

Hearing this, Zhang Hao was stunned. Looking at the other party's weathered face, he reached out and touched his arms, and immediately took out two pancakes that were warm and warm. Now the weather is too cold, Zhang Hao didn't let Zhao Lan get up too early, so he made pancakes one night in advance and put them in the pot to warm them over a charcoal fire, and he would take two for breakfast when he came out to practice boxing early in the morning.

Pulling out one of the pancakes, he took two steps closer and handed it to the old man, Zhang Hao exhaled and said, "Old man, give it, if you are hungry, make do with it." ”

Nodding, the old man was not polite, took out his hands full of crane skin, took the pancakes, and ate them in two bites. Then he smashed his mouth, stared at the other pancake in Zhang Hao's hand, and said, "What is that?"

"Uh......

Zhang Hao smiled bitterly and handed over the rest of the cake in his hand. Seeing the old man gobbling up, staring at the bag of bread in his hand, Zhang Hao said depressedly: "Grandpa, it's gone, I'll bring out two and give them to you." ”

"Well, what a kind lad. ”

Licking his lips unsatisfied, the old man smiled and said, "Young man, the old man sees that your skills are good, and an ordinary cake is delicious." In this way, about three hundred meters away from our right, there is a small mountain stream, and there is a cave above the mountain stream where a three-star demonic beast Iron Horned Garo Beast lives, you go and call, the old man is not full, let's roast it, how about it?"

Hearing this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Grandpa, figure it out, you ate my breakfast, and now let me risk my life to fight a three-star demonic beast, this is a bit ......."

Before he finished speaking, feeling the pitiful eyes of the old man, Zhang Hao sighed lightly and said, "Yes, can't I go?"

"But I didn't bring any ingredients for the barbecue, or I'll go home and bring you some more pancakes." Zhang Hao said helplessly.

"Hey...... The old man wants to eat barbecue, and the ingredients are all prepared for you. Just now, I saw that the phantom body martial arts you fought were quite subtle, and that three-star demonic beast was not your opponent, don't worry!" said the old man with a hint of success in his treacherous plan.

Zhang Hao's heart trembled, he had been boxing for two hours, and when it was over, the old man made a little noise and appeared, this alone shows that the other party is not simple.

Looking at the old man stretching out his hand as if by magic, and packets of spices appeared on the palm of his hand, Zhang Hao said depressedly: "Okay, then you pick up some dry firewood here, and I'll go back." ”

After speaking, Zhang Hao identified the direction, and with a flash of footsteps, people rushed out like cheetahs.

Looking at this scene, a smile appeared on the old man's face, and then the figure trembled slightly, leaving an afterimage in the same place, and the afterimage dispersed, and there were only a few packets of spices left on the grass, and there was no one left......

......

Standing at the foot of the mountain stream, his eyes staring at the swarthy cave hanging above the mountain stream not far overhead, Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel a little strange: "According to Uncle Menghai, the demonic beasts of Wuyun Mountain never set foot in the outer mountain ranges, because the energy of heaven and earth here is much rarer. They prefer to stay on the Fog Cloud Mountain, where the energy of heaven and earth is abundant, and generally there are one-star and two-star demonic beasts living below the mountainside, and they should be able to wander around the mountainside when they reach the three-star level, but there is a three-star Iron Horned Garo Beast here?"

At the same time, Zhang Hao's gaze shifted to a protruding stone rock about five meters away from the mountain stream, and he no longer hesitated at the moment, stepped lightly on the ground, his body rushed out, and with a little bit of strength on the stone rock, it bounced to a clearing outside the cave.

In a low bush not far away, a pair of bright eyes looked at the light figure, and a burst of brilliance suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Cave place. Zhang Hao had just landed, and before he could make a move, he was stunned, because there was a pair of blood-red eyes in the cave who seemed to have been waiting for a long time, staring at him gloomily.

"Roar"

Looking at the uninvited guests outside the cave, the iron-horned Garo beast roared, its head lowered slightly, its four hooves kicked the ground, the one-foot-long iron horn on the top of its head glowed faintly fluorescent, and its body about a foot long rushed towards Zhang Hao like an arrow.

Zhang Hao's eyes froze, staring at the light on the iron horn, his steps were wrong, and he turned his head backwards, hanging in the air strangely.

"Sure enough, it's the essence of strength, how can this kid cultivate a sevenfold small phantom body?" Looking at the clear black strength under Zhang Hao's feet, the old man's face hidden in the bushes was shocked.

At this moment, Zhang Hao, who was in the air, also had a shock on his face, and the Iron Horned Garo Beast standing not far from the cave was looking at him with anger because he couldn't fly, and a low roar came out from time to time, which made Zhang Hao find something unusual. Blood was dripping from the corners of the beast's mouth, and its breathing was rather messy, and it was obvious that it had been injured before this.

"Whoosh"

The confrontation didn't last long, and a faint light flashed from the iron horn above the head of the Iron Horned Garo Beast, and immediately slashed a streamer towards Zhang Hao.

"Bang"

Unleash a random punch that scatters the streamers that rush in front of you. As this scene happened, Zhang Hao felt the obvious fear in the eyes of the iron-horned Garo beast below, and at that moment he snorted coldly, the black light on the soles of his feet swirled, and his body burst out like a stretched bowstring.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Hao swept behind the Iron-Horned Garo Beast, his fists clenched, carrying the strength as black as ink, and smashed heavily on the former's waist.

"Click"

A crisp sound appeared, and the back of the iron-horned Garo beast collapsed, and it seemed to know that it could no longer live, so it used all its strength to raise its head violently, and the sharp horns on its head stabbed towards the opponent in the sky, but the empty feeling made it whimper unwillingly, and then the huge body fell to the ground unwillingly, bringing up a layer of snow foam, twitching a few times, and its eyes gradually dissipated.

Seeing this, Zhang Hao, who had already flashed to the side, walked forward quickly and grinned, although this demonic beast was only a three-star level, it was also the first demonic beast he came to this shijie to capture. He had already heard Menghai say that the whole body of the demonic beast was a treasure, and there were people everywhere in the city who were vying for it.

Touching his body, he didn't seem to be carrying a sharp weapon, his eyes shifted to the sharp giant horn on the head of the iron-horned Garo beast, Zhang Hao smiled slightly, rolled up his sleeves, and walked over......

......

The old man who watched this scene in its entirety was already stunned at this moment, looking at the young man who was busy outside the cave from afar, he pursed his lips, as if he was very puzzled: "The soul has not yet been opened, and the strength has been condensed into substance, obviously reaching the sevenfold small realm of the phantom body, and it is what happened in this year, what happened to this little guy?"

Muttering to himself, the old man's face changed: "Could it be that his soul has been closed for ten years, and now he has awakened against the sky?"
