Chapter 365: The Man on the Glacier
One thing the Ascended learned from this message, most likely from their creator, is that they are incomplete beings, and that is why there is a limit to death.
Only by going to the fairy realm can they make up for their physical defects, so that they can reach the final state of 'perfection'.
And there is no doubt that this second ring mission and the appearance of the Ascendant reveal the true direction of this mission, which is the fairy world!
The reason why the people in this world are so weak is because this world is not the real goal of the mission, so no matter who you kill here, you will not be able to get a reward, but you may get it by killing the Ascended.
The so-called 'ready-to-finish' ascendant is the most powerful and closest to the 'perfect' ascendant, that is, the limit of this world. Costa thought to himself. "All the strong people have left this world, and the remaining sect masters or something, at most, are only a hundred years or decades of Taoism, so it seems that their strength is actually quite good." ’
As a result, this time, her purpose changed from simply searching for the secret of how to form a magical organ to finding the strongest person in the Northern Alliance.
After all, the task is first, and you have to think about how to survive before you become stronger......
Kusta followed Liu Sichen out of the huge ice cave and into a wide courtyard through a sloping passageway.
At this time, the Northland is also in the middle of summer, and the courtyard is full of greenery.
Liu Sichen looked at Costa and asked, "Do you want to go directly to my senior uncle?" ”
"Without further ado, I didn't bother with anything else." Costa nodded. "I'm only interested in high-grade spirit stones and strong people, right......"
"What's the matter?" Liu Sichen asked. "The younger generation is always at your disposal."
"Well, that's it, I hope to meet the powerhouses of this world more, so you or your senior uncle or anyone can do it, as long as you help me introduce an ascendant, I will teach you a high-level healing spell, how about it?" I think you guys like that. Kusta asked with a flat expression.
"Absolutely!" Liu Sichen's face smiled crookedly when he heard this. "Seniors rest assured! In addition to my uncle and ancestor, I can also arrange for my seniors to meet with the Poor God Supreme Elder of the Broken Sky Cliff and the Wuji Master of Haihe Palace! What do you think? ”
"Very good, after seeing your uncle, let's go see the other two...... That's right. Cousta asked as he pulled out a piece of paper and was writing and drawing. Who do you say is the strongest of the three Ascendants? ”
"This ......" Liu Sichen thought for a while, shook his head and said. I'm sorry, but I don't know that very well, after all, none of these three seniors have any official record of fighting. ”
"And who has been the Ascended for the longest time?" Kusta asked again.
"Of course, it's my senior uncle and ancestor Binghe!" Liu Sichen said very proudly. "He's an old man who is a time-honored ascendant, but ...... To be honest, this qualification of his old man is actually relatively weak, so he barely became a soarer at the age of one hundred and ninety-three. I don't know much about the progress after that, because I heard that after becoming an Ascendant, my qualifications will also increase, and I don't know if I will be limited by the qualifications of my previous mortal body. ”
The lifespan of mortals in this world, that is, the lifespan limit of top monks, is two hundred to two hundred and fifty years old, which varies from person to person.
But as soon as you become an ascendant, your lifespan will be recalculated, that is, you will have an additional lifespan of almost two hundred years.
And as long as you work hard to cultivate during this period, then it is possible to ascend to the immortal realm and become a perfect person.
Of course, not all ascenders can be successful.
And Liu Sichen's uncle, this glacier man has been an ascendant for a hundred years.
In other words, this is an old man who is almost 300 years old......
'Well, could it be that this is the 'ready' Ascendant required for the mission?' Kusta, who was following Liu Sichen, secretly felt a little happy in his heart.
After all, if the mission is not completed, it is a death, and of course Costa has to work hard!
She followed Liu Sichen to an island in the middle of a lake.
"What's going on?" Cousta looked at the situation on the island and felt a little inexplicable.
Because it doesn't look like an uninhabited desert island with a master's belly cultivation, it looks quite luxurious.
The island is full of tall buildings, and most of the people who live in them are ordinary people with big bellies and rich faces......
"This ...... Shi Shuzu likes popular places, and he said that this will not delay his cultivation...... "Liu Sichen is obviously a little embarrassed, because he has the strength and qualifications of his uncle and ancestor, but he is not in tune with his life. "These people are here just to catch a glimpse of the legendary Ascendant, so it's a big income point for us."
Kusta pursed his lips when he heard this, but Liu Sichen pretended not to see it.
Some of the key buildings on the island have a very clear portrait carved into it, an old man wearing a navy blue or other color robe, with a full head of white hair and three locks of long beard on his chin.
Even without Liu Sichen's introduction, Costa knew that this must be the man on the glacier.
Although I don't know what the strength of this product is, just looking at his appearance is okay, but he has the appearance of a master.
But soon Kusta found that there were still a lot of old man's portraits, pendants, jade statues and other things for sale on the island, and most of them were hung with gimmicks of how much money was opened by the people on the glacier themselves.
And there are really people who pay for it......
Liu Sichen also knew that his uncle was very good at what he did, but he had no choice about it!
He is a junior, even if he is the master of the door, how can he pull such a master out to engage in commercial activities?
Yes, it's all poured out by the people on the glacier themselves!
He even used the power of the Ice Palace to help promote this matter, and the result was like this.
In the end, Kusta and Liu Sichen landed in a courtyard that didn't look very luxurious.
"Buy the Kaiguang pendant, and get the guidance and blessing of the master in the lottery......" Costa looked at the thing written on the sign next to him, his expression was quite strange.
"Uncle Shi! I'm Sichen! The contemporary master Sichen brought the exotic master Kusta senior to ask for a meeting! Liu Sichen stood at the door and shouted.
However, there were strange noises coming from inside......
"Master! No! Someone's coming! "Don't, let them wait, I'm so fast, I'll bless you......"
The crackling sound was endless, and Liu Sichen covered his face and regretted a little that he had brought Kusta to meet this uncle.
He also knew that this old ancestor was a little embarrassed, but he didn't expect to lose it on this!
And Kusta reluctantly blocked part of his hearing.
After a while, a strong man wearing a pair of big pants, nearly two meters tall, with tendons and flesh, and smooth skin like jade, walked out.
"Sichen? What are you looking for me? The strong man plucked his ears and blew them and asked with a smile. Well? This is your newborn daughter? What a beautiful embryo! You're marrying a new aunt again? Yan Fu is not shallow! ”
The appearance of this strong man and the previous mural statue are completely two people, no matter how you look at the style or tone, how do you look like a middle-aged scoundrel!
"This, don't talk nonsense, this is Kusta's senior, from a foreign land...... Well, the Ascendant, right? Liu Sichen thought about it, and still described Kusta as a Soarer rather than a True Immortal, the latter was a bit exaggerated and he didn't dare to think about it.
"Ascendant? What do you look like...... Well...... An old fellow, huh? The strong man nodded approvingly. Indeed! When you are old, many things are inconvenient and ugly, but fortunately, we ascenders can change the aging degree of our bodies at will, and this second spring is more than two hundred years at once! Hahaha~~ But I still have to change back to that old skin when promoting, it's really troublesome......"
Ascended people can basically live to the limit of mortal lifespan, that is, two hundred and fifty years, which is a uniform number, without exception.
"Hmm...... Mortals are indeed troublesome. Kusta nodded, looking at the glacier man and smiling sweetly.
But the Glacier Man didn't know that Kusta had included him among the 'mortals'.
The mortality rate of the brave profession is indeed very high, even the top ten have the day of death, but as long as it reaches four or more turns, due to the sudden increase in attributes, the body structure will change in essence, and the result is almost immortality.
As a heroic spirit from another world, Kusta herself is a top-level magical android, using interstellar tactical weapons against ships. The genetic sequence in its body has long been cracked and recombined, and it belongs to the type that can be used until it is old as long as it is properly maintained.
In other words, she is already immortal, and she doesn't need to turn four or five times.
"But what are you looking for me? Double Major? Forget it, I can feel that there seems to be only one complete supernatural power in your body, heart, right? Although the type is a bit rare, I have three types, and I haven't been in vain for more than 100 years, and you are not qualified to double cultivate with me. The glacier man said with a smile.
In his words, it was obvious that the people on the glacier thought that Costa was a young old woman who was a magical organ and repeated it with himself, so he was not even worthy of double cultivation.
"Three? Well, the heart, lungs, right arm...... Three kinds of magical organs, but the question is, are you as strong as me? "Naturally, Kusta has already seen through the general situation of the people on the glacier in front of him, the three magic organs, this is indeed a very good phenomenon, and Kusta is very curious to know how he did it.
And I want to tear this thing's mouth apart......
"Provoking me?" The man on the glacier scratched the back of his head when he heard this, smiled a little doubtfully and shook his head. "It's not necessary, right? It's pointless for us to fight, and it's really troublesome to take time to recuperate if we get seriously injured in a real fire...... Raising pigs and growing vegetables to make some money to receive goods is the best, I hate fighting and killing the most! ”
Looking at his uncle, Liu Sichen didn't know what to say, so he could only stand aside a little depressed and couldn't interject at all.
"You don't want to fight, but I want to." Kusta said, tilting his head and shaking his neck. "By the way, I want to ask you one thing before fighting, that is, do you know who is most likely to be ready for 'Ascension'?"
"Why do you ask this? Want to take advantage of your ascension? Hearing Kusta's words, the glacier man immediately laughed as well. I see, you heard the news, huh? ”
"Huh?" Kusta froze for a moment, but still nodded and followed the words of the man on the glacier. "I heard the news, there should be one in the near future, but it's not specific. You're also a time-honored ascension, you should know this little thing better than me, right? ”
"This is no small matter! And you must know that this kind of thing has been a big taboo since ancient times, although I don't know why it's a big taboo, but the masters above occasionally send this kind of warning. The glacier man said, holding his arms. Oh, by the way, if you weren't from the Great Sect, but just a grassroots ascendant, you wouldn't know about it. ”
"The Ascended Ancestors can still send back the message?!" Regarding the words of the people on the glacier, Liu Sichen on the side was even more surprised, and hurriedly asked. "That'...... That ......"
"You want to ask what true immortal exercises can be passed down? Stop dreaming. The glacier man smiled and shook his head. Every year, you can type two or three sentences into the minds of ascenders like us who have practiced the same exercises, how many years do you think it will take to complete an exercise? I have been in the world for two hundred and fifty years, and it is estimated that they will not even be able to pass on the beginning of the ancestors! ”
"This ...... Okay......" Liu Sichen sighed a little disappointed when he heard this.
"Alright, anyway, I just want to know who is most likely to ascend!" Costa said with a frown. "Tell me! I'll teach you a spell that is comparable to the True Immortal Technique! ”
"True Immortal Exercises? Girl, are you in the wrong head? The glacier man asked with a frown. I have here this 'Northern Wilderness Impermanence Heart Sutra' that specializes in treating mental illusions, and I can lend it to you. ”
"Uncle Shi! My junior brother Zhang Cheng and I can't see the limit of this senior when we work together to use the Xuanshui blessed land! Seeing this, Liu Sichen on the side hurriedly explained. And this senior is not actually a monk in our world......"
"Stars from the sky?" When the glacier man heard this, his expression became quite strange......
"Poof! Ha ha! Hahahahahaha~~~~ You little girl, you are really a psychopath! Practicing the exercises went crazy, right? In this case, my exercises won't cure your brain! Hahahaha~~" After a long while, the people on the glacier couldn't hold back their laughter. "I'll tell you, I'm a kind-hearted person, and I don't beat fools!"
"I'll fight." The corners of Kusta's mouth twitched slightly, and a green tendon popped out of his forehead.
The next moment, with a whistling sonic boom, the two of them disappeared into the courtyard together.
Liu Sichen was shocked when he saw this, because he didn't see what happened just now!
"In heaven? So fast?! Liu Sichen looked up, but saw two figures staggering across thousands of meters in the air.
In the air, Kusta hit the glacier man with a single blow, and the arm bone of the glacier man's right arm was cracked!
"Wow! Lao Tzu's Xuan Bing arm! The Binghe Master urged the exercises, and his entire right arm suddenly became crystal clear and exuded a chill.
A visible crack in the bone of his right arm can be seen, and the crack is rapidly repairing.
"Why did you call this girl all of a sudden? I'm going to get mad if you want to continue! The glacier man frowned and shouted in a rather stern tone.
Kusta didn't answer, but just flew and kicked the man on the glacier in the head and chest.
Generally, when Kusta is more angry, he will only fight directly in close combat, because this kind of power is more concentrated, but the risk is also greater.
The glacier man frowned and raised his right arm to try to grab Kusta's foot, but Kusta turned instantly when his hand and foot were about to make contact!
I saw that the slender calf crossed the crystal clear Xuanbing arm, and kicked straight between the chest and abdomen of the person on the glacier!
The astonishing distance exploded, kicking the glacier man far away......
However, Kusta felt a little strange, because the touch of the kick just now was very strange, and she had the feeling of kicking on the cotton, and the softness was completely unfocused.
The man on the glacier who was kicked away was now bulging his entire ribcage, and it seemed that his body was a little out of proportion, and his cheeks were bulging high, as if he was stuffed with a mouthful of things.
"Broken!"
The next moment, the glacier man opened his mouth and burst into a shout, and a shockwave like a condensed mountain of substance hit Kusta like a tsunami!
Kusta knocked the shockwave away with a punch, but also used the force to retreat, the force of the opponent's blow she was very familiar with, this was the kick she had just kicked out!
'The lungs are...... Counterattack? The chest is not his weakness! Kusta's spirit had become more focused, and the anger he had felt had vanished.
But I saw that the body of the person on the ice river shook violently, and at the same time, his eyes were instantly bloodshot and became indistinguishable, and the whites of his pupils and eyes became indistinguishable, and even the crystal clear Xuan Bing arm became blood-red.
The next moment, his whole person directly broke through dozens of times the speed of sound, and the blood-colored arm slammed towards Kusta!
Kusta raised his hand without dodging and took the opponent's punch, but the result was that Kusta, who was in mid-air, did not move, but the glacier man flew out upside down!
"What is this ability? It shouldn't be possible for your heart to do this kind of thing! The man on the glacier looked at his slightly cracked Xuanbing arm, and the blood in his eyes and arm was slowly receding.
"Well, I didn't think I needed this trick, but I didn't expect your heart magic organ to be able to play this level of explosive power, it's very powerful...... It's just a pity that I don't seem to need ......," Cousta said, nodding. "This is the power of the heavens, the power of the law."
The counterattack and outbreak of the Glacier Man's counterattack just now were indeed very powerful, and even forced Costa to use the law of strength to counterattack, but that was all.
If the Glacier Man had no other hole cards, the power of the instant counterattack of the Law of Power was a barrier that he could not break.
