Chapter 37: Midland
"You... What are you talking about?" Chu Ling slapped himself in the face, and there was a feeling that he was dreaming: "Yuan Wukong is not an ape all the time, but an elixir?"
Master Hou nodded in confirmation again, his index finger on his lips, and motioned for Chu Ling not to say it out loud.
Master Hou sighed, his eyes wandered, as if he had fallen into some kind of long-term memory, his lips opened and closed slightly, and the beard on his lips trembled: "This matter is too long to say, and it is even more designed to be some ancient secrets, originally the old man actually wanted to thank you for your ignition work that day, since you have met this little ape, let me tell you! Anyway, the old man is also a person who is about to enter the ground, and these secrets should not be taken to the Nine Springs by the old man." ”
"Speaking of Tiandan, boy, how much do you know?" Master Hou didn't rush to tell the story, but asked Chu Lingdao.
Chu Ling shook his head, indicating that he didn't know anything.
Master Hou laughed twice and said, "Really, how did I hear Hulu Weng say that you gave him that the batch of twenty Heavenly Pills?"
Chu Ling lowered his head in shame, took out a handful of Yuan Force dust from the space and explained: "This is what the kid found in an ancient place, and it is the Yuan Force that has been accumulated over a long period of time and solidified. ”
Master Hou took the powder and smelled it, laughing and said: "Okay, you kid, not only deceived the heroes of the world, but also almost deceived the old man, if I didn't know some real Tiandan Xinmi!"
"The real Tiandan Xinmi?" Chu Ling's heart stirred up a monstrous wave.
Master Hou nodded, and continued: "Actually, the moment they got the twenty pills, the old man already knew that it was not the Heavenly Pill, although they didn't have the slightest breath of fire in it. ”
"Then you..."
Master Hou motioned to Chu Ling not to interrupt him, and said: "Old man, in my old age, I was lonely and alone, only Hulu Weng often came to see me, and the rest of the time I was snubbed in front of the door, so I rushed to him for this affection, and I can't show him a good thing, right?"
"Moreover, I was emphasizing at the beginning, I could only confirm that the pill was no longer among the nine products of the Didan, but I didn't emphasize it, it must be Tiandan, those big people are all greedy, in order to get Tiandan, they are fascinated by Tiandan, and it has nothing to do with my old man!"
Master Hou squinted his eyes proudly for a while, Chu Ling was stunned, he didn't expect the old man to have such thoughts in his heart, but in retrospect, it seemed that this was really the case at that time.
Master Hou opened his eyes and continued: "Let's go back to Tiandan, this matter has to go back to the time when I went out to practice, after spending all the savings on my body, I spent all my savings outside a tavern in Zhongzhou all the year round to buy drunk, the owner of that tavern is responsible for my three meals a day and one meal a day of drunkenness, and I need to refine some simple pills for him to make medicinal wine." ”
"It was in that tavern that I met a man who was also extremely fond of exploration, and he told me that he had discovered a mysterious ancient place, but he needed to bring a Danshi, who said that he was from an orthodox source but was extremely valuable, and did not obey orders, and hoped that I could go on an adventure with him. ”
"Three days later, we set out on a smuggling boat, and after a long journey at sea, we finally came to an unknown island, and the man took me up and down the road with great skill, as if he were moving in his own home, and after about a day's journey, I guess we came to the middle of the island, where there was a pool of pure water. ”
"I jumped into the lake under his leadership, and was dragged by him to sink all the way, and the water in the pool could be described as bottomless, but when it sank to a certain depth, I actually found myself floating, and finally we broke through the water, and a new world appeared in front of us. ”
"The reason I can guarantee that we are in another world is because it is the opposite of the lush greenery of the island, a barren and bare land, and the crimson flames erupt from the scorched soil, and the heat released fills the entire space with a hazy mist. ”
"There was also a pile of white powder in the shape of a human on the ground, which was formed by the ashes of the person who had been burned and condensed again. The uneven heat and cold in the space caused a stream of small whirlwinds to be active, but the man was very familiar with taking me to avoid these small whirlwinds one by one. ”
"That place is like the original state of the world, the air is full of aura, and the flames that erupt from the ground from time to time are also extremely terrifying, even the Venerable-level treasure weapon we prepared fell into it, but it only melted in an instant, leaving nothing behind!"
I followed him through the perilous place, and after three days we finally came to a charred temple. It was a stone palace, and the stone was already covered with cracks caused by the heat, and the stone palace was dull, but the broken patterns on it still revealed something extraordinary. ”
"After entering the hall, that scene, I can't forget in this life, corpses, all corpses!"
"Corpses?" Chu Ling said in surprise.
Master Hou nodded deeply, and from his eyes full of fear, he could know how terrifying that scene was back then!
"That hall is very majestic, it is full of charred corpses, almost all of those corpses were burned to death, and the chaotic Dao rhyme is circulating in it, if it wasn't for that person guarding me at that time, I'm afraid I would have already sat down in that chaotic law!"
"We walked through the dense corpses, although those corpses were burned to death by the flames, but their bodies still exuded a terrifying aura, overwhelming me, I was sure that they must have been the kind of devastating existence in their lifetimes, even if I came to this realm later, I met countless masters, but there was still no one who could bring me such a terrifying coercion as back then. ”
"That kind of coercion is the coercion contained in the laws of heaven and earth, and it is not something that can be compensated for by cultivation at all, but my companion is not as weak as I imagined at all, he resisted the coercion at the same time, and he brought me, a rookie, to the central zone!"
"What I saw in the center of the main hall made me even more incredible, in the center of the main hall, there was a huge Dan furnace, that Dan furnace was full of fifty pieces high, and under the Dan furnace, the blazing flame had not been extinguished even after such a long time. ”
"In the center of the Dan Furnace, I saw a huge pill that was floating and floating, and that pill actually faintly evolved into the form of some people, and I could even feel the steady and powerful heartbeat of the humanoid pill in the air, and I was so frightened that I sat on the ground with a butt. I've never seen such a weird elixir!"
"When my accomplice saw the pill, countless madness flashed in his eyes, and then he said that he would give me a creation to help me take that pill, on the condition that after I took the pill, I must help him obtain the pill in the pill!"
"I just remember that I didn't know how at the time, but I listened to his words as soon as my head was dizzy, and with such a low cultivation, I dared to surrender such a terrifying Danhuo. And the moment I touched it, the raging flame immediately went berserk, turning the surroundings into a sea of fire, and after that, I had no memory. ”
"When I woke up again, I had reappeared on that green and lush island, as if everything was a distant dream, but when I turned out an extremely terrifying ball of fire in my hand, I knew that it was all true. ”
"I waited for two days without waiting for my companion, so finally after the third day, I left the island by boat alone! After I got ashore, I immediately withdrew from Zhongzhou and returned to the Northwest Continent, living in seclusion and concentrating on refining that ball of Danhuo, which is what you saw that day!"
After Master Hou finished speaking, he sighed heavily, and with a flip of his palm, a small black flame appeared in his palm, shaking gently, and the whole room was quiet......
