Chapter 1: Awakening

The vast universe breeds the world, and human beings are only one of the tiny, but human greed, **, is endless. I don't know when, there are such people, they either absorb the qi of the five elements of heaven and earth, or guide the energy of the five elements to enhance their own abilities, so there are strengths and weaknesses, there are disputes, they use the abilities given by nature to unscrupulously destroy the natural cycle. And the best of them are even more sacred.

The Haochen Continent, the Red Flame Sect of Wuzang Mountain, is the Sect of the Town of the Fire Country. The pavilions and pavilions in the sect, the waterfall bridge, like the abode of the gods, are full of the feeling of fairy wind and bones. On a circular martial arts training ground, nearly 100 teenagers sat on the ground, listening to their master explain martial arts. The oldest of the boys was about 10 years old, and the youngest was only 5 years old. And their master is Liu Zhi, one of the famous Chiyan Five Heroes of Nanli Country, an intermediate martial artist, about forty years old, neatly dressed and gentle.

"What is martial arts. The master asked.

"Absorb the qi of the five elements of heaven and earth, strengthen the inside, and use the energy of the five elements to open up the meridians. The group of teenagers replied in unison.

"Well, that's good. Now you can memorize it, and you may not understand the reason, but in the near future, you will understand. Master Liu Zhi said again: "The qi of the five elements can be hidden in the five organs. It is the foundation of heaven and earth, the foundation of all things. Those of us who practice martial arts and practice the law breathe in the qi of the five elements every day, which is intended to exercise the inner part of the five internal organs, which is to preserve essence, and to practice the handle can forge impurities in the body, consolidate the effect of cultivation, and remove pollution. Of course, the principles of the Dharma practitioners are similar, but they do not use the vitality to open up the meridians, but practice the brain spirit and communicate the five elements. ”

"Master, I don't understand, since it is absorbing the qi of the five elements, will it be faster to directly absorb the essence of the five elements?" asked the youngest teenager sitting in the front row.

Liu Zhi squinted his eyes slightly and smiled: "Yi Jiantian, theoretically, yes, but directly absorbing the essence of the five elements is not something that ordinary people can do, the essence is too pure, not only can not increase cultivation, but it will also hurt the body, and the gains outweigh the losses." In addition, the essence of the five elements is precious, and those who can directly absorb it are even rarer.

Misty Forest, one of the eight fierce places in the Haochen Continent, covers an area of nearly one million square kilometers, about sixty percent of the area is perennially smoky, the geological environment is quite complex, and there are many dangerous places like stars, and it is said that there are more ancient desolate beasts entrenched in it. Here, apart from some of the humans who live at the edge of the forest, there are only a few adventurers who want to find rare treasures. Deep in this mysterious forest, there is a place that those who know about it call the Graveyard of the Dead.

The smoke in this area is very thick, the visibility is only about five meters, and in it, you can't hear any birds and insects, and the silence is so eerie that it is suffocating.

All the plants here also seem to have lost their lives, uniformly showing a jet-black color, and even the smell of ** comes from the air.

Legend has it that people who enter here will disturb the souls of the dead here, and many of the people who have come here have either no bones left, or they have died of a serious illness after going out, and in addition to the remote location, no one has been here for many years.

In the depths of the cemetery of the dead, there is a hill nearly fifty meters high, the peak of the mountain has been shrouded by a layer of milky white halo of enchantment all year round, it has been many years, but in recent years, the enchantment has often loosened, as if it could be broken at any time.

At the bottom of the hill, a cave has been carved out, and at the top of the cave, glowing gems adorn the place with fantastic beauty.

There is an underground dark river about ten meters wide near the mountain wall, on the edge of the dark river, a small garden with all kinds of flowers and plants, butterflies flutter in it from time to time, and occasionally a few rabbits are also scurrying among the flowers, which has not changed for many years.

There is also a nice little house in the middle of the garden. The small house has no door, and in the middle of the house is a large bronze box, with a mysterious five-pointed star array on the top, and on the five corners of the array are gold, red, blue, green and brown spars of five colors, and in the middle of the array is a round milky white spar, surrounded by dense runes.

Directly above the array, a huge metal pillar runs through the top of the mountain and the roof, the same scene, how many years, has not changed.

At night, the torrential rain was sudden, thunder and lightning were combined, and the metal pillar that ran through the top of the mountain and the roof would sometimes attract lightning near the hill, and the thunder and lightning passed through the metal pillar, just on the pentagonal array below, and then the array seemed to be activated by thunder and lightning, emitting a brilliant light, and the naked eye could see little by little the five-colored starlight slowly converging to the array from all directions.

And the milky white gem in the middle of the array is also flickering from time to time.

With the strike of each thunderbolt, the array will flicker rhythmically on all kinds of light, when the tenth thunderbolt strikes, there is a faint heartbeat in the bronze box, "tick, tick" As more and more thunder strikes, the heartbeat gradually becomes stronger from the beginning of the faint, and the speed gradually accelerates, after the ninety-ninth thunderbolt, the heartbeat has been the same as ordinary people.

At the same time, the massive metal pillar began to shrink and slowly slid down from the roof of the cave, eventually becoming the size of chopsticks. The barrier outside the mountain shattered, turning into a little starlight and spilling onto the earth.

The first rays of the morning sun cast on the forest, and the bronze box slowly slid open to the left, revealing a little boy about five years old in the box.

I saw that he was dressed in a pale yellow tight-fitting suit, and on his delicate but pale little face, a pair of strange black eyes were opening slightly, as if he was blinking as if he was adapting to the light outside. He slowly got up, his body stiffened, and after most of the day, he finally crawled out of the box.

Mechanically, he walked out of the house step by step, and was just about to step over the door, when suddenly, the metal rod that had fallen to the ground and the five-pointed star array on the bronze box were imprinted on his chest together, and he looked at the imprint on his chest and continued to walk towards the garden.

When he got to the garden, the butterflies and the rabbits gathered around him, and he was very happy, chasing the rabbits, dancing with the butterflies, for a long, long time. Although he can move now, he is not a complete person, and he still lacks fresh vitality. But at least now he has no sorrow, no trouble, no cold, no heat, no thirst, no hunger......

One day he came to the river, the bottom of the river was dark, and a lovely and delicate face faintly appeared on the surface of the river, he smiled towards the water, and he also smiled in the water, as if he had discovered a new continent, he posed various poses towards the water, playing happily, but he didn't notice that a demonic beast about three feet long at the bottom of the river was quietly approaching him.

He was having fun when suddenly a huge snake tail stretched out from the surface of the river and swept him into the water, and then the river python opened its mouth and bit him. This python took advantage of the shattering of the barrier some time ago and swam from the dark river underground.

He watched the python's huge mouth bite over, and his left hand suddenly hit the jaw of the giant mouth, and the python's huge force knocked him far away, and the python attacked him again, this time before the giant mouth arrived, the python's tail had already wrapped him firmly. He grabbed the python's tail tightly with both hands, and his nails sank deep into the python's body, making the python feel painful. The river python's maw bit his head again.

As such a powerful magical beast, there is no doubt about the bite force, but the moment the giant bite hits, the scene of the skin opening and flesh blooming does not happen, and the giant python is even wondering if it has bitten the diamond.

The boy didn't know that the five-pointed star array had been collecting the power of the five elements around him over the years, and unconsciously, it not only brought him back from the dead, but also indirectly enhanced his physique, and now his body is as solid as a rock, and the meridians are as tough as this, but there is no trace of yuan power, even so, the power is not weak.

The child's hands violently tore the python's tail, and the python's tail broke into several pieces. The intense pain did not make the python give up, and it firmly believed that as long as it swallowed the creature that was less than a meter in its stomach, everything was done.

The python opened its huge mouth and bit hard, using the instinct of the snakes, slowly expanding and retracting its body, and after a while, the child had not entered the python's mouth for most of his body, and the python sucked hard again, seeing that the child slid down the esophagus of the python into the python's abdomen, this time the python was finally relieved, it dragged most of the body, from the underground river to the nest.

The little guy was swallowed in at once, but it felt slimy, and he couldn't see anything, his body was squeezed, but fortunately he was able to move gently, and it seemed that there was nothing uncomfortable in addition to this, and his body began to adapt to the environment here, no air, and he couldn't breathe, so he actually ushered in his first sleep.
