Chapter 5 Immortals
Night, always quietly coming, devours the light and invades the earth......
Looking at the moon overhead, the days when I was with Amu and the others came to mind. Whenever night falls and the moon shines in the sky, Xue Zhen always feels very peaceful. Even Xue Zhen himself didn't know why, only his habits from childhood at that time. In the past, Amu would always accompany Xue Zhen to look up at the starry sky. It was the same starry sky, and I was happy when I was a child, but now, only sadness remains. In Xue Zhen's eyes, it seems that even this starry sky is half missing.
"Xue Zhen, are you still thinking about your brother Amu?" Han Feng walked up to Xue Zhen and asked.
"Hmm. Xue Zhen replied, did not speak again, but still looked at the bright moon.
It's been three days, and this kid has been like this. I hope he can let go soon. Shaking his head, he turned and walked over to the campfire and sat down.
"After a day's journey, everyone is tired, so have a good rest tonight and prepare to enter the city tomorrow. Han Feng said to the people who were busy cleaning up the camp.
"Yes, master!" replied the crowd. The thought of going home tomorrow brought smiles to everyone's faces. After coming out for a long time, everyone is very homesick. There are even those who wish to go into the city now.
Seeing that everyone was so happy, Xue Zhen couldn't help but think of Amu again in her heart. Shook his head, not remembering. Walked up to Han Feng and sat down.
"Xue Zhen, I'll enter the city tomorrow, now my uncle will tell you about the situation in the city, do you want to listen?" Han Feng saw Xue Zhen sitting beside him, so he planned to tell Xue Zhen about the situation in the city. So that when Xue Zhen enters the city tomorrow, he will not feel too unfamiliar.
"Hmm. Xue Zhen nodded.
"Okay, then you listen. The city we will enter tomorrow is called Silver City. It is also the city where my uncle's family is located, and it is my uncle's hometown. Uncle is the head of the Han family in Yincheng, and there are three major families in this Yincheng. The Yun family, the Qi family, and the uncle's Han family. Among the three major families, our Han family is the largest, the Yun family is second, and the Qi family is last. Speaking of this, Han Feng stopped and looked at Xue Zhen and asked, "Do you know why our Han family is the strongest family in Silver City?"
Xue Zhen shook her head. Looking at Han Feng, I hope Han Feng can give an answer.
"Hahaha!" Han Feng smiled heartily and said, "That's because our Han family is the most united. Unlike the other two families, who play intrigues and gangs all day long, a good family is torn apart. That's why I was pressed down by my Han family. Xue Zhen, you remember, be a man with affection and righteousness, and not be ungrateful. If you don't even have affection, you have lost your foundation as a human being. ”
"Uncle Han, I remember. Xue Zhen nodded and said.
"Hehe, I'm confused, just with your feelings for your brother Amu, when you grow up, you will definitely be a person of the most affectionate nature. Han Feng patted Xue Zhen on the shoulder and said to Xue Zhen with a smile.
"Brother Amu......" Hearing Han Feng talk about Amu, Xue Zhen lowered her head, her eyes full of longing.
"Well, forget it, let's not talk about it, you go to sleep, just get some sleep. I'll have to go early tomorrow morning. Accidentally mentioned Amu, Han Feng didn't know what to do, so he had to send Xue Zhen to sleep.
"Hmm. Xue Zhen got up and walked under a big tree and sat down on the ground. With his back against the trunk of the tree, he held his thighs with both hands, and looked at the grass in front of him in a daze.
The faint moonlight shone on the camp, and when everyone fell asleep, the night seemed extraordinarily peaceful.
Xue Zhen quietly looked at the grass, thinking about everything that had happened in the past few days. Suddenly remembered that when he was running away, he fell into a hole......
Xue Zhen suddenly turned up her left sleeve and saw that an ancient moon character was printed on her arm.
Could it be all true? What kind of sixty-three generations of guardians have I become? Just as Xue Zhen was staring at the mark in a daze, the mark suddenly emitted a faint blood-red light.
Xue Zhen's pupils, who were in doubt, narrowed extremely slightly, what was going on? Before Xue Zhen could react, the mark changed again.
Dozens of blood-colored lines emanated from the imprint, spreading along the blood vessels to Xue Zhen's body. Xue Zhen only felt dizzy in her mind, and gradually lost consciousness......
When Xue Zhen opened her eyes again, she found herself in a white sand area with a huge ancient tree in front of her. Overhead, the starry sky is full. Under the giant tree, a man with long lilac hair looked at the starry sky in the distance.
"Who are you?" Xue Zhen asked, looking at the purple-haired man. However, there was no answer. The purple-haired man, as if the soles of his feet had roots, remained motionless, just staring at the starry sky all the time.
"I've seen you, right, I saw you last time in the cave, right?" Xue Zhen asked again. Still no answer.
"Why am I here, what is this place?" Xue Zhen summoned up her courage and asked again.
"This is where you were born. The voice seemed to come from ancient times, shattering time and space, and reaching Xue Zhen's ears.
The man slowly turned around and looked at Xue Zhen quietly. A simple action, but it seems to cause tens of thousands of years of time to flow.
Time stops at this moment......
You were born here.
Xue Zhen only had this sentence left in her mind. It took a long time for Xue Zhen's thinking to turn.
It's pitch black, and there's no boundless darkness beneath you. When Xue Zhen regained consciousness, she found herself in total darkness.
I don't know how long it took, but a faint light came out in front of me, and the bright light gradually formed a figure. It was the illusory figure that Xue Zhen had encountered in the cave at the beginning.
"Child, you have finally activated the mind that I left in the sigil. Don't be surprised, this thought was left behind by me when I was alive. "The figure is the shadow that passed the mark of the moon to Xue Zhen.
"Right now, the space you are in has been carved out by my mind. When this strand of my mind dissipates, this space will also collapse, and this space can only accommodate your and my thoughts. Alright, let's get down to business. Shadow Shock paused for a moment and continued, "Do you know immortals?"
"Immortal?" Xue Zhen shook her head. He had never heard of immortals.
"Sure enough, hundreds of millions of years have passed in the era of immortals, and now in this world, no one will know about immortals. Ying Zhen's eyes were dark, and he had a disappointed expression.
"Hundreds of millions of years immortal?" Xue Zhen asked again.
"That's right, hundreds of millions of years. Ying Zhen continued to reply: "Hundreds of millions of years ago, it was the prosperous era of the Immortal Dao, how many people sought immortals and asked, and how many people cultivated to achieve positive results. However, everything was shattered with that battle. The battle between the immortals and the gods. ”
"War of the Immortals?"
"Yes, the Battle of the Immortals. No one knew where the gods came from, so they provoked the war of the immortals. Originally, the gods were no match for the immortals. It's just because, at that time, the Dao of Heaven changed greatly, and the gods with the help of the Dao of Heaven rose strongly, which made one of my immortals sink in. Even today, no one knows about the existence of immortals. ”
Shadow Zhen paused for a moment and continued, "Five years ago, I was hunted down by the believers of the gods and seriously injured. In the end, he was forced to burst out with the power of the mark and escaped. My body was destroyed, and only a trace of my mind remained. I've been asleep in the sigil until then, knowing that day, you're in the hole. Originally, I didn't pay attention to your existence, but the mark glowed after you appeared, and I knew at that moment that you were the candidate for this generation of mark guardians. ”
"You are the one chosen by the Seal, and maybe you can unlock the Seal's secrets. Let the immortal road return to the peak of antiquity. Remember, this sigil must not be seen by anyone, otherwise, if you let the gods know that the sigil is in your hands, they will inevitably take you away and try to unlock the secrets of the sigil. At that time, the last hope of the immortal path will be shattered. So, you have to hide your imprint. ”
"Now, I will pass on to you the cultivation of immortals. This exercise was created by the Lord of the Seals. That is, the seal of the moon remembers the creation of the true owner. The practice is called Seeking Immortals. You close your eyes. As he spoke, he raised his right hand and pointed it at the center of Xue Zhen's eyebrows, and a white light passed from Ying Zhen's hand into Xue Zhen's mind.
"Okay, I've explained everything I want to explain, and it's time to step into reincarnation. Xue Zhen, you remember, we immortals, the cultivation is against the sky!" After speaking, Ying Zhen's body became more and more illusory, and finally disappeared into the boundless darkness. As Shadow Shock's thoughts disappeared, Xue Zhen's thoughts would also enter his body.
