Barren Mountains.

The body of the "Soul Snatcher Flying Knife" Li Chenghao was placed in a hole in the ground.

Gong Yudie fell sadly on Li Chenghao's corpse and cried into tears.

Monsters roam around the depths of the cave non-stop.

Ye Feng walked in from outside the cave, and when he saw Gong Yudie, he found that the girl in front of him was unkempt and became extremely haggard.

His heart trembled, and he called out softly, "Jade Butterfly?"

Gong Yudie didn't respond, and her body lay on the ground like a deflated ball.

"People can't be resurrected after death, you mourn!" Ye Feng comforted.

In the evening, Ye Feng couldn't hold back any longer, he picked up Gong Yudie and said, "Li Chenghao is dead, let's let him be buried in peace!"

"Today is our day of great joy, day of great joy......"

Gong Yudie muttered, her eyes staring blankly at the dark cave.

Ye Feng couldn't care so much anymore, he picked up Li Chenghao's body and ran outside, people can't be resurrected after death, it's better to be buried as soon as possible.

Gong Yudie chased after him: "Wait a minute, he and I are going to a place, where Cheng Hao wants to go." ”

Gong Yudie led Ye Feng to a thatched hut under the barren mountain range and stopped.

Set against the backdrop of the mountains, this thatched house has a vegetable garden in front of the door and a small stream flowing slowly in front of the door.

Ye Feng dug a deep pit on the edge of the thatched hut.

Gong Yudie cried again into tears, and he grabbed Li Chenghao's body to death. Ye Feng still pulled away her arm and forcibly buried Li Chenghao.

"Cheng Hao is gone, Cheng Hao has gone where he should go, he won't take me away......"

It's getting darker.

Ye Feng helped Gong Yudie, took her into the thatched house, helped her sit on the bench, and turned around to find something to eat.

"No need, Cheng Hao hasn't been back here for a long time, and there won't be anything to eat here. ”

"This is where Li Chenghao lives?"

Li Chenghao was originally a low-key person, although he was ranked first among the "Four Great Geniuses", he was never willing to show his face, he was only interested in martial arts.

And such a martial arts genius actually lived in this desolate and humble place.

"Cheng Hao and I have known each other since childhood, he originally lived in the town, the son of a small family, and the parents of our two families are world friends. Cheng Hao and I have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and the family also gave us a baby kiss. However, it was I who hurt Cheng Hao, and I was sorry for him. ”

Gong Yudie choked up again as she spoke.

"Why, your family conditions are so good, and your life should be very happy?"

"Happiness? That was before. I have been pampered since I was a child, and I am regarded as a martial arts genius, at the age of six, I have broken through the initial level of quenching and become a martial artist, and when I was ten years old, I broke through the intermediate level of quenching, but when I was twelve years old, when I was about to break through the advanced level of quenching, a nightmare happened, and my whole body cultivation disappeared inexplicably overnight...... I'm a wreck!"

"What?

"That's when the nightmare began. First of all, the Li family resolutely opposed the family affair between me and Cheng Hao, then our two families had a grudge, and then my grandfather, in a fit of rage, burned down my family's mansion and led our family to the barren mountain range and built the barren mountain villa.

"I lived a dark life until Cheng Hao came to the Barren Mountains to find me...... But my family was adamantly against us being together. Cheng Hao didn't leave me, he set up this home under the mountain range again, echoing the barren mountain villa.

"And he said, Marry me and make me his daughter-in-law. He said he would protect me for the rest of my life...... For this reason, he began to practice martial arts diligently, and vowed to take me back. Time and time again, he was either defeated by my father or my grandfather, but he was still not discouraged. ”

"His martial arts talent is also extremely high, and he quickly broke through to the middle level of quenching, and then the high level...... However, when we met again, my family was slaughtered by Ximen Feishao and others, and Cheng Hao vowed to avenge me, but ......"

Gong Yudie spoke intermittently, and she couldn't cry again.

In order to avenge Gong Yudie, Li Chenghao first offended the Ye family, and then killed Ximen Feishao, Ximen Yu and others, and finally died under Ximen Jinhong.

Fate is so tricky!

The sky finally got dark, Ye Feng brought a handful of water from the stream by the river, and Gong Yudie sadly refused.

She took out a small package from under the bed in the thatched hut and opened it.

Inside is a shining flying knife, the "Soul Snatcher Flying Knife" Li Chenghao's flying knife!

She took a handful in her arms, walked out of the house, and came to Li Chenghao's grave again, her figure flashing, showing off a set of shocking martial arts exercises.

Ye Feng watched stunned from the side, waited for the other party to stop, and couldn't wait to ask: "When you showed your martial arts and exercises at Ximen's house, I couldn't believe it, but now I understand that you are hiding deeply." ”

"As I said, I've been a martial arts genius since I was a child! But when I was twelve years old, I lost all my cultivation overnight and became a wasted person. ”

"But you're ...... now"

"Yes, I've recovered my cultivation now!"

"Why?"

"From my grandfather to my father, they have been trying to find a way to get me back to cultivation. But after countless attempts, they all failed, until my grandfather met a man in the cave of the demon beast and gave him hope. ”

"What kind of people?"

"A man who is dying. ”

"Huh?"

"The man was dressed in strange clothes, his hair was strange, and he was dying in a cave, and he said he was from the continent to the east. ”

"The continent in the east, the continent outside Qingyang Town?"

"Yes. That place is called 'Maple Grove Continent'. And there came this man, who was mortally wounded, and who was fleeing from his enemies. Before he died, he gave my grandfather the 'Divine Emperor Jue' and a 'Qiankun Ring'. ”

"Is that it?"

Ye Feng hurriedly put his hand into his arms, and he took out a blackened animal skin, which was given to him by the ram shirt.

"Yes! It's a mystical exercise. But the more mysterious things are, the more people rush to ask for them. It is precisely because of the 'Divine Emperor Formula' and this Qiankun Ring that my public family is ruined. ”

Gong Yudie said, taking out a delicate small box from her arms and opening it.

Through the moonlight, Ye Feng saw that it was a ring, a jade ring.

"This strange man, give these two things to my grandfather, and then beg my grandfather to do something for him. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Send this ring to the place called 'Maple Forest Continent' for him, and give it to the sect master of the 'Boundless Sect', saying that if it is sent there, there will be heavy gratitude. This 'Divine Emperor Formula' can be regarded as a gift before his death. ”

"Another world?'Maple Grove Continent'? Is this person a madman? How come I have never heard my grandfather talk about Maple Grove Continent. ”

"I've never heard of it, and I wouldn't believe it if it weren't for my grandfather's words. ”

By the way, Gong Yudie suddenly remembered something, his hand shook, and there was an extra book in his hand. Ye Feng looked stupid, why did he suddenly have an extra book?

Seeing Ye Feng's puzzled expression, Gong Yudie picked up the ring and explained.

"It's called 'Qiankun Ring', it is made of a special ore on the Maple Forest Continent, and it has Qiankun inside, and as long as the mind drives it, you can store the things on your body inside. ”

The more Ye Feng listened, the more confused he became, it was the first time he had seen such a magical ring.

"Do you know so much about what your grandfather told you?"

"There is everything in this book, and it was through this book that my grandfather learned that the 'Nirvana Fruit' can restore my cultivation. ”

Seeing the look of longing in Ye Feng's eyes, Gong Yudie handed the book to him.

"Take this copy of "Maple Grove Chronicles" and read it. ”

Ye Feng did not refuse, took the "Maple Forest Chronicles" and put it in his arms.

"Then, your grandfather went to find the Nirvana Fruit?"

"Yes, the Nirvana fruit only grows in extremely hot places, it blooms for thousands of years, and it bears fruit in ten thousand years, and it is in the deepest part of this cave where we are, on the stone wall next to the magma. ”

The more Ye Feng listened, the more miraculous he felt, and asked eagerly, "Then how did your grandfather get the Nirvana Fruit?"

"The first time my grandfather stepped into the depths of this cave, he encountered all kinds of monsters, fought with them, and walked forward step by step. But it still failed...... Later, the second time, he had clearly found the 'Nirvana Fruit', but a huge fire spat out the flames and burned him half to death...... He still failed. ”

Ye Feng recalled the scene of his battle with the demon beast, and he also had palpitations. I only heard Gong Yudie continue:

"Grandpa didn't tell me these things before, and it wasn't until I was rescued from the Ye family and dying that he told me and asked me to wait for him at the entrance of the cave. One day, two days...... I couldn't wait, and with all my might, I crawled into the cave to find my grandfather's corpse, and he was holding a blood-red fruit in his hand......"

Gong Yudie choked again.

She ate this "Nirvana Fruit" and was reborn, not only recovering her exercises, but also breaking through the high level of quenching in one fell swoop, but her grandfather left her forever.

In the dark night, the barren mountains were quiet, and the silence was somewhat terrifying.

Gong Yudie said to Ye Feng: "Since I ate the 'Nirvana Fruit', I am no longer afraid of those demon beasts, but I can feel their joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and even become friends with them. ”

The moon climbed up from the bottom of the mountain, and Gong Yudie pointed to the moon and said, "Where do you say that world is? Before Grandpa left, he gave me the 'Qiankun Ring'. I also have a yearning to go around the world called 'Maple Grove Continent'. ”

"Maple Grove Continent, Maple Grove Continent! If there really is this world in this world, I also want to go out and see ......."

"Then let's go together!"

"Not right now – I still have to attend the triennial tournament! ”

In order to prevent one family from becoming dominant, the ancestors of Qingyang Town decided that once every three years, the champion family would take over the business of Qingyang Town, and it was also to encourage them to cultivate excellent genius boys.

"You want to be a champion?"

"No"

"Then why?"

"I have the blood of the Ye family in my veins, but all along, the people of the Ye family have regarded me as a waste, and I have suffered from their bullying. Tomorrow is the time to prove myself to everyone!"
