In the dark cave, there was a swaying yellow spiritual light, and it was extremely quiet, only the footsteps of them reverberated softly.

The old man of the mountain sighed: "One hundred thousand years ago, the ancestor of the Immortal Fire created the art of taming, which freed mankind from the doom of being hunted by brute beasts. Later, human beings gradually became tired and unwilling to cultivate hard, and the brute beasts that had been oppressed re-emerged, gradually forcing humans into a desperate situation. In the once glorious human world, six of the seven continents were slaughtered, and only this last one remained, guarded by the greatest man at the time, and he was Yuntian. The Battle of the North Sea, although it was a defeat for both sides, ended with his fall. Since then, this continent has been in the Yuntian Continent, and the old ancient calendar has been changed to a new ancient calendar. Although there is the protection of the Yun clan, the shadow of the great wilderness outside has always shrouded the sky over this continent, until Miyagawa Ming rose in the sky five hundred years ago, and let mankind see hope. As a result, it was only a flash in the pan, and he fell before he became the king of the beast...... With the passage of time, the Yun Clan's legion gradually entered its twilight years, and if no new Beastmaster and his legion appeared to take the Yun Clan's place, the continent would still not be able to escape the end of ruining Miè. ”

"The members of the Yun Clan should have a long lifespan, right?" Ye Qingcheng asked.

"After cultivating to the eighth order, you should have a lifespan of two thousand years. The old man said, "However, now the core of the Yun Clan's legion, the Crazy Demon Blue Fire Crane, still has a lifespan of three to five hundred years. His cultivation has always been the strongest in the Yun Clan, even the Cloud Beast King is not as strong as him, if he falls, no other members of the Yun Clan will be able to support his position, and it will be even more difficult to support the entire continent. ”

"That's right. Ye Qingcheng suddenly asked, "Has the head of the family ever guessed what the relationship between my old man and the Yun family is?"

"At first, I thought it was a mad demon - Crane Lao, but Crane Lao has no surname, and your old man's surname is Gumu. The old man shook his head and said, "If there is really a guess, he may be the brother or descendant of the Cloud Beast King." ”

They chatted all the way, and before they knew it, they had walked along the cave and into the depths of the mountain. The originally cramped and gloomy passage suddenly became empty, and a space with rain gear ten heights appeared in front of it.

A pale red, smoke-filled bunny is jumping smartly through the space, but there is nothing else in the space.

"Is that a mountain fire?" Ye Qingcheng stared at the pale red smoke rabbit in surprise.

"It's just a spiritual fire. The old man who fell from the mountain said: "With Yu Chiyan and Lihuo here, we could have borrowed their fire spirits and cooperated with the water spirits remaining here to quench your body." However, if you don't get it right, the fire spirit will hurt your muscles. Wildfire, on the other hand, is just like water, it is a magical thing that nourishes living beings, and it has the same fiery refining effect, but it will not hurt you. Now, get rid of the distracting thoughts in your mind, and worship the mountain with me with the most pious heart. ”

Ye Qingcheng nodded and looked at the old man who fell from the mountain.

The old man closed his eyes, his face gradually calmed down, as if he was expelling distracting thoughts in his heart, making his state of mind clear and reverent. Then, the bloated and fat body of the old man who fell down the mountain knelt down against a mountain wall and kowtowed nine times gently.

On the ground, the little red rabbit condensed by the smoke turned into a wisp of smoke and flew to the mountain wall, spreading and spreading quietly, covering the mountain wall.

The old man who fell from the mountain slowly opened his eyes, got up and stared at the empty mountain wall, and said without turning his eyes: "I saw the mountain soul (mountain fire), it's your turn." ”

Hearing the sound, Ye Qingcheng knelt down, quietly calmed his mood, calmed himself, and expelled the distracting thoughts in his mind. As a result, when his mind was ethereal, Miyagawa Xue's appearance appeared in his mind uncontrollably, and if it all lingered, he was reluctant to wave it.

When he opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that a vague, huge face appeared on the huge mountain.

Seeing Ye Qingcheng's surprised face, the old man asked curiously, "What did you see?"

Ye Qingcheng was stunned, embarrassed to say, what he saw was Miyagawa Xue's face.

"I'll say goodbye. He laughed awkwardly.

Shaoqing, after he opened his eyes again, the appearance of Miyagawa Xue on the mountain wall was replaced by an extremely old appearance.

The face was a huge old man's face, it was rocky skin with cracks, every crack was its wrinkles, its eyes were quietly closed, the shadow-like hair grew on the top of its head, its whole body was a faint dark red, and its expression was unusually peaceful, as if it was sleeping and meditating. This is the soul of Buzhou Mountain, its face, its manifestation, and its transcendent appearance and demeanor.

"See it now?" asked the old man who fell from the mountain.

Ye Qingcheng stared at the old giant face, and his heart was solemn and reverent.

"Mountain fire is like a spirit but not a spirit, like a soul but not a spirit. The old man said, "You need to borrow a wisp of mountain fire to inhale into your body now, and keep it for fighting the water cold in the future." Although it is not a soul, it has its own mind in the underworld, and you have to have the noblest dreams to borrow its gifts. ”

"What am I going to do next?" Ye Qingcheng asked with a nod.

"Walk over and put your hand on your chest. The old man said.

Ye Qingcheng immediately stepped forward, put his hands on his chest, held the water in a posture, and stared at the mountain wall reverently.

"Bow your head and close your eyes. The old man walked up to him and said, "Thinking back to what I just said to you, what would you do if you were asked to borrow a mountain fire?"

"Work hard to cultivate. Ye Qingcheng closed his eyes and said quietly.

"How far has you cultivated?" asked the old man who fell from the mountain.

"Enter the Dragon Slaying Palace, obtain the Dragon Seal, and become the Beastmaster. Ye Qing said without hesitation.

The old man nodded and said, "In the future, if you become a beastmaster, what will you do?"

Ye Qingcheng hesitated for a moment and said his heart: "Take the second brother and Lihuo and travel the world." ”

The old man who fell from the mountain was taken aback and said regretfully: "Isn't it guarding this continent?"

"If I have the ability, it is my mission to protect the last territory of mankind. Ye Qingcheng slowly opened his eyes, looked up at the dark red, peaceful giant face in the mountain wall, and said, "However, my dream is to travel the world. ”

Ye Qingcheng's words did not satisfy the old man who fell on the mountain, he originally thought that Ye Qingcheng would not hesitate to say the words of swearing to protect the Yuntian Continent. As a result, the moment Ye Qingcheng opened his eyes, the giant face in the mountain wall slowly opened its mouth, revealing a gap, a light, transparent, and light red smoke floated out of its mouth, and then flew out of the mountain wall and fell on Ye Qingcheng's palm, like a layer of warm smoke, swirling between his fingers, quietly melting into his skin. At the same time, he felt a ray of comforting warmth, melted into his veins and bones, as if the sun had penetrated his body.

The old man laughed in surprise, then shook his head helplessly, "I'm too self-righteous. What the mountain soul wants to see is the sincerity of us creatures, not those empty oaths, which have told you so much along the way, almost misleading you. ”
