Chapter 58 Surprised
As this bend passed, a wide mountain path suddenly appeared in front of me, a straight bluestone staircase leading to the mountain. Such a bluestone staircase looks a little out of place on this giant god peak where the mountain rock is full of black.
As soon as the Emperor Tian and the others arrived there, they saw that there were several corpses lying down on the side of the bluestone stairs. Judging by their clothes, they should also be those cultivators who came to the secret realm this time, but no one can recognize their origins. After all, this time the Dongfang family summoned a variety of forces, several of which occupied the major forces in the entire Southern Regions, even Dongfang Dexterity, who was the Dongfang family, did not necessarily recognize all of them. However, Di Tian just saw that those people were not familiar to him, and his heart was a little more relaxed.
At the moment, they have all arrived at the Giant God Peak, but they still haven't seen their father's figure, even if they are as calm as Emperor Tian, they can't help but be a little secretly anxious.
At this time, Di Tian suddenly felt that Di Chonghai on the side secretly cast a look at him, Di Tian and he looked at each other, and they both felt each other's meaning. The people in front of them had obviously just been killed, and even the blood on the ground had not yet completely coagulated. This means that if they move forward now, they are likely to encounter those who committed the assailants in person.
But it was precisely because of this that Emperor Tian's heart became more and more uneasy, these perpetrators were extremely ruthless, and judging from the injuries on the bodies of those dead, almost all of them were killed with one blow, and they had no strength to resist at all. You must know that the people who can pass through the many dangers in this secret realm and finally reach this giant god peak are all the best among that group of cultivators. However, even so, he was killed by the perpetrators with one blow.
If Father and the others had really reached the Giant God Peak one step ahead of themselves and the others, as they had guessed, then they would inevitably encounter those perpetrators. When that happens, the consequences may be unimaginable.
After careful consideration, Di Tian finally said: "Let's take a break first, and when we have recovered our strength, we will set off as soon as possible." Although Di Tian didn't say what he was worried about, after all, there were several miserable corpses scattered right now, and they had to choose to rest here temporarily, the atmosphere was really a bit strange.
Since entering this giant god peak, everyone feels as if a big stone is tied to their hearts, and they always feel heavy. Except for Xiaobai, seeing that Di Tian was meditating and resting on the spot, it was extremely energetic, jumping around, without the slightest hint of exhaustion.
Xiao Bai saw that Emperor Tian and they didn't want to pay attention to it, and it was boring to stay alone, so he wanted to look around.
On the top of this giant god peak, as far as the eye can see, it is all bare black mountain rocks, and there is no grass at all, and there is no vitality at all. However, after Xiaobai went up the mountain, he faintly felt that it seemed to have an inexplicable sense of familiarity with the mountain. It was an indescribable feeling, maybe it was just a subconscious act, and Xiaobai didn't tell anyone about it. It's just that from the moment it stepped into this giant god peak, it felt like it had a sense of home.
It felt so familiar, yet so strange.
Xiao Bai quickly ran up the bluestone stairs, and after a while, it suddenly saw that there seemed to be a small fork on the side of the stairs. The small fork was apparently artificially carved out and led right on the edge of a cliff on the right.
Xiaobai suddenly felt a little curious, so he walked over there.
It had barely taken a few steps before it suddenly stopped, its snow-white fur standing upside down, its whole body tensed tightly, and a low roar came out of its mouth. Seemingly, it noticed something unusual.
At this time, Xiaobai seemed to have frozen in place, looking at its appearance, his expression was very uncomfortable, and he was obviously struggling. But it seemed to be bound by something, and it couldn't break free at all.
Xiao Bai's eyes suddenly showed a little panic, it felt that a powerful aura was slowly approaching it, but at this time, its qi was firmly locked by that powerful existence, and it couldn't move. Immediately after, Xiao Bai saw a tall figure suddenly appear behind a black mountain rock not far away.
The man walked over slowly, and Xiaobai saw his appearance clearly. It was an old man who looked to be about sixty or seventy years old, dressed in a light gray robe, with gray hair, and his face was carved with mottled wrinkles, like an old dragon clock. When the man walked over, a pair of cloudy eyes looked at Xiaobai from time to time, and a strange smile was outlined at the corner of his mouth, which suddenly made Xiaobai shudder unconsciously.
Xiao Bai couldn't move, and he didn't dare to speak, but he whispered somewhere, staring at the old man who suddenly appeared vigilantly.
"Little one, do you live on this giant god peak?" the old man said suddenly, and his voice was quite peaceful.
But somehow, although this old man had a kind smile on his face, Xiaobai was very wary of him, and the nature of the demon beast clan to seek profit and avoid danger made it feel that the human in front of him was in great danger to it. Xiao Bai didn't answer, because he could feel that the human being in front of him was obviously completely different from the feeling that Emperor Tian and the others gave him.
"Don't you understand what the old man said?" The old man suddenly laughed, then walked to Xiaobai's side, half-squatted down, and reached out to touch Xiaobai's head.
Xiao Bai hurriedly turned his head away, avoiding the old man's outstretched hand, although its body could not move, but it immediately showed a vigilant appearance, bared its teeth, and roared at the old man in a low voice.
"Hehe, little guy don't be so afraid, I won't eat you again. The old man squinted his eyes and smiled, and pressed down with a pair of big hands, Xiaobai felt that he had no strength to resist at all, so he had to close his eyes unwillingly.
It's over! Xiaobai's heart suddenly darkened.
However, the old man only reached out and stroked its little head lightly, and did not make any other movements. Immediately after, I heard the old man whisper again: "It turns out that there are still a few people who came with you?" Hehe, it turned out to be a pet raised by a person, and the old man thought it was a wild demon beast that grew on this giant god peak. ”
As he spoke, the old man suddenly stood up, and a trace of essence suddenly emanated from his cloudy eyes, and then he suddenly felt that the momentum of the whole person suddenly changed, and it was like a flash of lightning in the dim night, which made people's eyes shine.
The old man's eyes looked down, the place where the bluestone staircase began. There, it was the place where the Emperor and the others rested.
At the same time, Di Tian also suddenly opened his eyes, and seemed to sense the old man's eyes at the same time, his face sank, and he looked in the direction of the mountain.
Who is it?
Di Tian's heart suddenly gave birth to a trace of doubt.
"Huh, you kid can actually sense the old man?" suddenly came from Di Tian's ears.
But when he raised his eyes and looked at Di Chonghai and Dongfang Dexterity beside him, the two of them were obviously still meditating and recuperating, and they didn't feel anything abnormal. Di Tian immediately knew that this person was talking to him with a sound transmission.
"Don't be surprised, boy, come up, don't alarm the two. Then another sentence, and then there was no more sound.
Di Tian turned his eyes to look at the two people beside him, and saw that they didn't seem to wake up for a while, so he stood up and whispered, I'll go over there first, and then walk up the bluestone steps. Di Tian walked not long ago, and then he also saw the small fork that Xiao Bai had seen before. The breath of the person he sensed just now came from that direction.
Di Tian thought about it, but still walked over resolutely. With the other party's ability, if he really intends to harm himself, there is nowhere to hide in this place. Since there is no way to avoid it, why not face it calmly.
And when Emperor Tian walked a short distance along the small fork, he suddenly saw a tall figure standing in front of a black boulder not far away, an old man with a white beard. In front of the old man, Xiao Bai was there motionless.
"Xiaobai, why are you here?" Di Tian couldn't help but ask.
Xiaobai didn't speak, or rather, under the coercion of the old man in front of him, he couldn't even say a word.
"This little guy is yours, right?" I saw the old man suddenly say something, and then slowly walked towards Di Tian. looked at Di Tian with a kind face, but Di Tian's heart suddenly became vigilant for no reason, and he faintly felt that there was an extremely dangerous aura on this person's body.
"The younger Emperor Tian, I have seen the seniors here. This little white is a little fox raised by the younger generation, naughty and tight, if there is something offensive to the seniors, please also ask the seniors to do a lot, don't worry about this little beast. When Di Tian said this, it was actually a pun.
The first is to leak a message to Xiaobai, so that it will not reveal its identity as a Sky Fox clan, after all, as long as it does not use the monstrous demon power on its body and does not speak, on the surface, it looks no different from an ordinary fox. And the other meaning is for this old man, and the meaning is very clear, that is, you are an old man, and we juniors are just passing by by and don't want to have any conflicts with you.
At this time, I saw that the old man suddenly smiled mysteriously, and said: "What a boy, is it really that the old man is old and dazzled, and he can't even distinguish between a normal fox and a demon beast?" But it's nothing, it's just a little demon fox, and the old man won't really be embarrassed by it." ”
As he spoke, Xiao Bai suddenly felt that the pressure on his body disappeared in an instant, and it regained its ability to move again, so it immediately jumped away and quickly threw itself into Di Tian's arms, looking at the mysterious old man standing not far away with a frightened expression.
"Boy, you have a very strange power in you, who are you, are you also the cultivator invited by the Dongfang Family this time? Hehe, if this is the case, then it is the opponent who wants to compete with the old man for the secret treasure of the Divine Tomb. Tell me, should the old man be here, and get rid of a few of you potential dangers?"
The old man suddenly asked a rhetorical question that seemed to be smiling, which suddenly made the atmosphere of the scene tense.
Could it be that those people at the bend were killed by this old man?! Di Tian suddenly felt his heart skip a beat, this old man was really very dangerous.
Di Tian's mind raced quickly, and he quickly thought about countermeasures. The strength of this old man in front of him is unfathomable, and if he really has a conflict with this old man here, the consequences will be unimaginable. So Di Tian thought about it, and finally said without humility or arrogance: "Senior, the younger generation came here this time, the purpose is not to be that secret treasure, although the seniors can rest assured, the younger generation will never become the opponent of the seniors." And the younger generation is not the opponent of the seniors. If the seniors don't believe it and insist on dealing with the juniors, they have no choice but to fight to the death. From the beginning of entering this secret realm, if there is no awareness of dying, it is impossible for the younger generation to come here alive. ”
Hearing this, the old man couldn't help laughing, looking at Di Tian's eyes, there seemed to be a bit of appreciation, and then said: "You kid, you are not small, and you have a senior, a junior, thinking that if you set up a seniority, the old man will have scruples about this? If the old man really wants to kill you, it will be like killing an ant, even if the world really knows, who dares to say anything about the old man." ”
Di Tian smiled slightly, with a glimmer of light in his eyes, and said: "The senior's words are good, if you want to deal with the junior, it is really as easy as pinching an ant to death." However, even ants often make amazing desperate fights when faced with life and death. The juniors are not talented, although the cultivation is pitifully tight, but if the juniors drag the already injured body, and have to worry about this little thing with the juniors here, I am afraid that it will really be time to compete for the secret treasure. In the face of those real peerless masters, the seniors are only afraid that some of the gains outweigh the losses. ”
When the old man heard this, his face suddenly changed, and a cold light was instantly released in his eyes, which suddenly made Di Tian feel like he was falling into an ice cave.
"How do you know that the old man is injured?!"
For this old man's performance, Di Tian was not very surprised. Originally, Emperor Tian's divine sense was far sharper than that of ordinary people, and he could detect many subtle changes that ordinary people could not detect. Therefore, when the old man was exploring the aura of several of them just now, Di Tiancai also discovered his existence.
At that time, Di Tian didn't feel it, but he faintly felt that this person's cultivation was extremely terrifying, but when he really saw him, Di Tian suddenly discovered that this old man's breath was strong, but it seemed that something was wrong. It seems that under his strong appearance, there is some instability on the inside, and to put it mildly, it means that he is a little strong on the outside. According to this situation, the biggest possibility is that this old man has most of the hidden injuries on his body, which causes his breath to be a little unstable at this time.
And the reason why Di Tian dared to say this, in addition to having a certain amount of confidence in his current strength, of course, was also indispensable to his courage to give it a go. In a word, it can provoke a completely different reaction from the old man in front of him. Or, in a fit of rage, start with the emperor. Or, he will think about it carefully, and maybe he will choose to cooperate with Ditian.
As a result, the old man chose the latter, because now he was really more and more curious about the young man in front of him. Aside from the strange energy that faintly revealed in his body, it was already unbelievable that this kid was able to discover his existence in the first place. After all, with his current cultivation, if he wants to deliberately hide his voice, he can only sense it so easily unless he encounters a situation that is much higher than his own strength, or is almost the same as his own strength.
However, the kid in front of him, who claimed to be Emperor Tian, looked like he was no more than twenty years old, and his strength had only opened the second coffin at best, and he had only the realm of the heavenly realm. Such a little bit of strength, which was usually completely out of his old man's eyes, was able to sense his own existence at the same time as he poked out his divine sense. If it weren't for the fact that this kid had some earth-shattering secret treasure hidden on his body, it was that he had practiced a special secret method. Otherwise, he really couldn't figure out why.
Di Tian suddenly smiled and said: "Senior, although the junior doesn't know how the predecessor was injured, but according to the junior, it is obvious that the injury is not light. According to what the predecessors said before, the purpose of entering this secret realm this time must be for the secret treasure on this giant god peak. If the seniors don't deal with the injuries on their bodies first, but instead have to delay the juniors more, I'm afraid that soon the masters of the Dongfang family and the rest of the forces will come to the mountain one after another. At that time, if the seniors want to take the lead in the competition for the secret treasure, I'm afraid it will not be so easy. ”
Seeing that the old man was obviously a little moved, Di Tian continued to hit the railroad while it was hot: "Actually, if the seniors are willing, the juniors can cooperate with you sincerely." The seniors will fight for your secret treasure, and the juniors only need to find the person they are looking for. ”
The old man couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and seemed to look at Di Tian with great interest, and asked, "You kid still want to talk about cooperation with the old man? What kind of cooperation method, you said to come to the old man to listen." ”
Di Tian said: "Don't hide it from the seniors, the younger generations still know a little about medical skills." If the seniors can be trusted, the juniors can give it a try for the time being, which may have a certain effect on the seniors to recover from their injuries as soon as possible. After a pause, Di Tian seemed to want the old man to give him a little more confidence, looked at the old man carefully, and then said: "I see that the injuries of the predecessors are not like being injured by others, although they did not hurt the roots, but they still lost a lot of blood. And the most important thing is that there is still a strange energy left in the body of the senior at this time. If the juniors didn't guess wrong, I'm afraid you should have a headache for this strange energy that has penetrated into your body. ”
Hearing this, the old man's face finally couldn't help but show a look of surprise, looking at Di Tian, he couldn't speak.
