The capital of the Great Apocalypse, in the south of the ancient city of Qingye, more than 300 miles away, there is a small mountain range that is not too large.

Although the mountain range is not large, there is a peak in it, which is as high as a thousand feet.

The summit is also surrounded by an oval-shaped lake.

Therefore, this place can also be called an island in the middle of a lake.

Halfway up the mountainside in the middle of the lake, there is a rocky henge made of various colorful strange rocks.

In the very center of Stonehenge, there is a small hole that is very cleverly hidden.

The entrance to the cave is hidden by an orange-yellow boulder, and if anyone enters it along the way, after walking hundreds of steps, they will find that there is a cave inside.

Here, it turned out to be a cave opened up by a cultivator with great mana.

In the cave mansion, in the secret room specially used for cultivation, there was an old man with a thin face and a short white beard.

This person is none other than the grandfather of the white fat monk, one of the strongest combat forces in the territory of the Great Apocalypse Kingdom, a late stage monk of the Crystallization Realm-Li Fuchuan.

The old man's eyes were closed, he sat cross-legged on the ground, breathing evenly, and the white mist condensed by the aura was haunting his mouth and nose.

Around him, there was a whole circle of discarded spirit stones that had lost their luster because the spiritual power had been absorbed.

I don't know how long it took, the old man's closed eyes trembled slightly, and then they opened suddenly.

In his eyes, a ray of divine light flashed, and he gently exhaled a mouthful of turbid breath, and then slowly spoke, bowed his head and said to himself:

"Although if you want to break through from the crystallization realm to the Jindan realm, you only need to have enough aura accumulation, and you don't need to comprehend the truths between heaven and earth......

"However, if you want to break through this level, it is still several times more difficult than the old man thought before......"

"Now, nearly half of the 50,000 spirit stones that the old man hoarded in order to break through this realm have been used, but there is still no sign of shaking this level."

Speaking of this, the old man's expression became gloomy.

"Could it be...... In this life, is the old man really going to stop at the crystallization realm......

"Last time, I obviously felt a hint of opportunity for a breakthrough, but I didn't expect it to be just a flower in the mirror, going around and around, and returning to the original point......"

Li Fuchuan was silent for a long time, and suddenly sighed.

"Forget it...... I can't continue to think about it, the more I think about it, the more confused my heart becomes, and the more distracting thoughts there are, if I continue like this, the old man really has no hope of being promoted. ”

After he said this, he slowly took a few deep breaths, calmed his mind, and then waved his hand and swept aside the circle of abandoned spirit stones around him.

Then, he took out a small pile of brand-new spirit stones from his storage jade bracelet and placed them beside him.

After doing this, the old man closed his eyes again, adjusted his breathing evenly, and prepared to enter the state of cultivation again.

After a moment, his eyes suddenly opened again, and his brow furrowed.

"What's going on...... My heart continued, why is it chaotic like this all of a sudden......"

The old man looked puzzled, puzzled.

He thought for a moment, turned to look behind him, and there, there was a small stone table, and on top of the stone table, there were several soul lamps.

The soul lamp in the most conspicuous center of it, I don't know when, the soul fire that should be swaying on it has been extinguished.

Seeing this scene, the old man's face suddenly changed greatly.

"Not good...... It's Zong'er's soul lamp, something happened to him! ”

Seeing that his favorite grandson's soul lamp was extinguished, the old man no longer had the intention of retreating.

He straightened up, and didn't even have time to take back the spirit stone he had just taken out of the storage jade bracelet, so he touched the ground on his toes, and his body jumped out of thin air, heading straight for the exit of the cave.

The old man smashed the orange-yellow boulder blocking the entrance of the cave with one palm, and the next second, his figure appeared outside.

He casually opened the formation he had arranged near the cave mansion, and at the same time took out his gourd-shaped flying magic weapon from the storage jade bracelet, jumped up eagerly, and galloped away at an extremely fast speed in the direction of the Great Apocalypse Royal Capital.

In an instant, the sea of clouds outside the peak of the lake was split into two sides by an invisible force.

The wind was cold, Li Fuchuan stood on top of the gourd magic weapon, leaning forward slightly, his complexion at this time was extremely ugly.

From his storage jade bracelet, he took out a communication crystal that could contact his grandson, and immediately injected his spiritual power to try to contact the other party.

Although he knew that there was little hope that his grandson would still be alive at the moment, he still wanted to give it a try.

However, the old man waited patiently for a few breaths, and did not wait for any response.

At this point, he finally gave up the slightest unrealistic thought in his mind.

The old man's eyes showed sadness, and after bowing his head and being silent for a long time, this sadness slowly turned into a kind of anger.

He thought about it for a moment, and then took out another communication crystal from the storage jade bracelet.

This one is used to contact his disciple Wan Guiming.

A few years ago, he handed over Zong'er to the care of his most trusted disciple.

Unexpectedly, what I got in the end was such a result.

Now, you must ask yourself what happened!

Thinking of this, the anger in Li Fuchuan's heart began to skyrocket.

He took a deep breath and injected a trace of his spiritual power into it.

However, as in the case of contacting his own grandchildren, several breaths passed, and there was no response.

When the old man saw this, his face changed again.

What's going on?

Don't...... Even he suffered?

Wrong...... Before I came out, I saw that the soul lamp he left in the cave was burning extremely steadily.

There are only two possibilities for this to happen.

The first is that he is trapped at the moment and cannot receive my summons.

The second ...... It was he who betrayed himself!

Either way, it's not good news for you.

Thinking of this, Li Fuchuan's face was completely gloomy to the extreme.

He stopped injecting spiritual power into the teleportation crystal and put it back into his storage jade bracelet, and at the same time, accelerated his journey again.

Now, only after I go to that place myself can I know what the situation is.

……

On the other side, Wan Guiming stepped on the leaf-like flying magic weapon and galloped through the air.

His face at this time, like his teacher, was also gloomy to the extreme.

Just a few breaths ago, he felt a tremor and buzz from the communication crystal that connected his teacher from his storage jade bracelet.

Seeing this scene, he didn't say a word, just took it out and smashed it.

The purpose of this was because he suddenly remembered that the communication crystal that the other party had left for him had a magic circle to track the location.

If he is not destroyed, his location will definitely be traced.

After doing this, Wan Guiming thought carefully again while fleeing frantically, and confirmed that there was nothing similar on his body, so he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to run away with peace of mind.
