"That means we're completely lost?" Li Xuanji patted Lieyan's back and sighed.

Looking at the familiar scenery in front of him, he felt helpless in his heart. After walking in the forest for so many days, finally came back to this place. This was the first time he felt 'ashamed' that he couldn't find the north.

"Blaze" Flame flicked his tail and agreed with his point of view.

"Sure enough, the geese don't return, even the geese that can best distinguish between the north and the south may not be able to fly out from here. No wonder Ryoma's predecessor reminded him so carefully, but unfortunately he didn't expect that the two of us would not be able to get out. When I was chased and killed by that dead old man, I didn't pay attention to which direction we fled, and now that Ryoma's seniors are not here, who should I find to lead us out of the wild goose forest!"

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Xuanji, who was dejected, turned over and dismounted, preparing to camp for the night.

He skillfully found a sheltered place with stones and trees against the wall, and then gathered a lot of dry firewood from the surrounding area, and set up a pyre on the ground. With a wave of his hand, a little light was thrown into the firewood, and the flame burst into flames.

Li Xuanji reached out and took out a stack of dough cakes from the Qiankun bag again, and placed them in front of Lie Yan, holding a dough cake himself, looking at it and frowning.

He was thinking about whether to lower his mouth when his arm was arched a few times, and when he turned his head, he saw Lieyan looking at him pitifully with wide eyes, and the stack of bread in front of him did not move at all.

"You gluttony!" Li Xuanji slapped Lieyan's long face and scolded with a smile: "It's only been a few days since you eaten, you don't even want to eat bread, you eat better than the common people, and now you are used to holding this mouth like this!"

He picked up the bread in his hand and took a big bite, then chewed it in his mouth, gradually chewing more and more slowly, and finally swallowed it, picked up a kettle and poured two sips of water.

"Eating this every day, the smell of bird poop fades in my mouth. Looks like it's time for a change, it's been a long time since I've eaten anything new. ”

"Hum huh" Lie Yan snorted a few times with his mouth open, as if he was laughing at him for being serious.

Li Xuanji's face was a little embarrassed, he got up and patted the dust on his clothes and said, "Lie Yan, you stay here, I'll go find something to eat." ”

Although it is forbidden for outsiders to hunt in the forest, Ryoma's predecessors once allowed him to hunt when he was hungry. Unfortunately, he had traveled far through the forest and had not seen any animals, let alone hunting. It is estimated that the beast tide led by Ryoma swept by, and all the animals followed away. He was disappointed with the result.

Fortunately, he found a big tree full of wild fruits, and picked almost all the ripe wild fruits on it, because there was a Qiankun bag, it was not a problem to take it away.

However, when he returned, he was lucky to find a waterhole in which several large fish jumped out of the water, sparkling in the sunset. Li Xuanji was immediately overjoyed, hurriedly took off his clothes and jumped into the water. If you can't hunt animals, it's also a good choice to catch a few fish!

Lie Yan waited until it was completely dark, and then he saw Li Xuanji come back with a stick, and behind the stick were hung with straw ropes several large fish, each of which was more than two feet long, and returned properly with a full load.

It happily ran to his side, rubbed its body against him, and then looked down to sniff the big fish. It seemed that the fishy smell was too strong, and Lieyan snorted in disgust, then stepped aside, ignoring him.

"Angry?" Li Xuanji smiled and patted Lie Yan and said, "I won't be so selfish. The fish is for me to eat, and I have prepared something else for you. ”

After saying that, he opened the Qiankun bag, and a pile of round fruits rolled out of it, forming a small mountain.

As soon as Lie Yan saw the fresh fruit, he took a bite and tasted it, it seemed to taste good, and his mood immediately recovered intact, rubbing his neck on his shoulder, which was regarded as an apology to him.

Li Xuanji didn't care, smiled and slapped the flame aside, letting it slowly enjoy its fruit.

He himself scraped the scales of the few big fish he had just brought back, gutted them, cleaned them up and put them on the branches. Then he took out a lot of spices from his Qiankun bag, what salt, incense powder, sauce...... Eighteen kinds of cooking ingredients are not lacking! This is the 'heritage' that a foodie should have!

After smearing the fish on the branch with the seasoning, Li Xuanji carefully controlled the distance of the barbecue and inserted it on the ground, and then sat cross-legged on a flat stone, waiting for his dinner to be cooked.

Seemingly a little bored, he took out the wide dragon slaying sword from his Qiankun bag and gently placed it on his knee.

The heavy body of the Dragon Slaying Sword was very incongruous with his size. The black sword body was quaint and did not have the slightest brilliance, and there was not even a bit of cold light that the blade should have, and it was even darker under the light of the bonfire. This kind of black gives people a sense of nobility and purity, which is clearly different from those black weapons made of fine iron. Only the hilt of the dragon's head shimmered with a hint of bronze in the reflection of the flames.

Li Xuanji gently stroked the sword body of the Dragon Slaying Sword with his fingers, and it was slightly cool in his hand, but it made people feel thick and calm. The unsharp blade gives it an indestructible feel. The word 'slaying dragon' written in the font of the two runes is classical, beautiful, and gorgeous, as if there is a kind of magic, just like the runes made into the Great Dao. Li Xuanji looked at it with eyes as if he couldn't take it off, and its mysterious beauty made people feel deeply studded.

"You're here......"

"You're finally back......"

An ethereal voice seemed to sound as if in a dream, and a hazy figure seemed to be as perfect as a dream and elusive.

Li Xuanji really wanted to see who the calling figure was, it was a longing, a call, and a waiting. But when he walked in, he found that there was no one there, no figure.

There is only a small courtyard here, a small mountain gate surrounded by green mountains and green waters, and a few tiled houses. A boy and a girl......

"Senior brother, will we be able to preach in the future?" the little girl asked innocently, putting away the sword in her hand.

"Of course you can!" Master said that you and I are the most talented disciples in this world, and we will definitely be able to dominate the others in the future!" The boy also put away his sword and said arrogantly.

"But just because you're a leader doesn't mean you'll be able to preach in the future. Master said that every person who preaches the Tao is a peerless Tianjiao since the eons, and they have all walked through their own path, and finally achieved the supreme Dao fruit!"

"Then let's get through it, we will be the only Tianjiao in the eternal world! I think there is hope in this world to come to this point, this person is not you and me. If I succeed, then I will reign in the world and pursue the ultimate path. At that time, I will accept anything in this world and ask for it!"

The little girl smiled happily, took the boy's hand and said, "I don't want anything, I just want to be with my brother and master forever, and never separate!"

"Together forever?"

The boy thought for a while, and said with a little difficulty on his face: "You are asking for immortality, and asking for immortality is a matter after the enlightenment, and that kind of person only exists in legends." To be immortal, you must do something better than the emperors who have succeeded in preaching in the records!"

The boy smiled and touched the little girl's head and said, "Senior brother, I don't know if I can do what you want." If Senior Brother can't do it, then Little Senior Sister must do it in the future!"

The little girl looked at him firmly and said, "I will!"

......

"Senior brother, why are you so unhappy?" asked the bright woman.

“...... Senior sister, what do you say we have been practicing for thousands of years, and what should I do?" the man asked decadently, hugging the wine jar.

"For what? To be stronger, of course, to be able to live longer!"

"Hehe, in order to become stronger, of course, you should work hard to become an emperor! In order to live longer, of course, you should seek immortality!" The man replied lazily, and suddenly he threw the wine jar in his hand directly, and said in a fierce voice: "But why have I practiced hard for thousands of years, experienced so many thunderstorms and so many heavenly punishments, and even lost my master, and still can't get the approval of God to achieve the Dao Fruit!"

The wine jar flew out of a hundred miles, directly smashing a towering giant peak, and the wine in the wine jar spilled out, turning into an ocean and flooding countless mountains and ravines!

The woman sighed and helped him back to the platform: "Senior brother, why do you embarrass yourself? You are now the first person in the world, and you are worshiped by hundreds of millions of beings of countless races. What is the difference between you now and the Great Emperor of the first generation? And the most recent of those who succeeded in preaching in the records was tens of thousands of years ago, and you have been the best person for tens of thousands of years!"

"No matter what kind of cultivation and status, if you don't preach the Tao and become an emperor, it's fake after all, what's the use of being nostalgic for these? I don't believe that with my ability, I can't get God's approval!" The man's eyes revealed a look of determination, "If God doesn't approve of it, then I will kill the sky and break through the sky!"

......

Thunderclouds rolled in the sky, covering a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles. All the creatures in the thunderclouds either escaped in advance or were scorched by the thunderstorm!

In the sky, a man with a broad sword in his hand is fighting thunder and lightning. Thunder and lightning sometimes turned into swords, sometimes into clock towers, and even into dragons and phoenixes, using the strongest laws of almost all the worlds to judge this person who dared to disobey the way of heaven.

The man fought in blood, and the big sword was vertical and horizontal. One after another, the sword rays that can open the world will smash the lightning into pieces again and again, and then look for an opportunity to stab the sky!

The thunderclouds in the sky became more and more furious, and the lightning was as thick as a mountain range, and the more they were split, the faster they gathered. It seems to be a dead end in the sky, forbidden to anyone in the world!

The man's blood spilled on the earth, the blood turned into a rolling flood to flood the mountains and rivers, and the aftermath of lightning and sword made countless mountains shatter, turn into dust, and finally all become boundless deserts.

He had gradually felt that he was powerless, and his Dao body was defeated, but he was still unwilling! He wanted to pierce the sky as thin as a cicada's wings!

He combined all the avenues of his comprehension with his Dao heart, and used the strongest method of derivation that he had never used in his life—the Sword Dance of Annihilation!

Above the sky, the misty blue sky seemed to have sensed it, and it turned into a giant seal of thousands of miles, carrying the waves and thunder sea to the earth!

"No—!" the woman standing in the distance galloped into the sea of thunder, trying to rescue the man from under the giant seal.

The giant seal crushed the man under the seal with a single blow, and then was drowned by the surging thunder. The woman frantically attacked the giant seal, attracting monstrous thunder punishment but was fearless, defeating the power of destroying the world again and again, and her demeanor at this time was no less than that of the previous man!

When she finally rushed into the center of the Thunder Sea, there was only a broken sword floating in the air, and there were cracks all over it, and the blood stained the long edge!

A huge grinding disc pressed again, trying to crush the woman in the center.

The woman held the big sword with tears in her eyes, and her body began to exude dazzling brilliance, and a monstrous wave of turbulence rippled out, sweeping the sky with the momentum of burning the sky and destroying the earth, towering for millions of miles!

When the light dissipated, the woman in the air disappeared, leaving only an intact sword that fell from the sky and plunged straight into the depths of the earth.

There are wisps of regret left between heaven and earth, which seem to be pouring out the story of thousands of years......
