The sky realm is vast and immense, and the light is full of all kinds of colors.

No one knows where these rays of light come from, and no one knows what their mysteries are, but the people who live in the firmament rely on them.

Because this kind of light can not only strengthen one's body, but also allow many people to absorb the energy they need in the light, so as to become stronger.

Of course, such people are not very common in the Firmament Realm, because most of such strong people are in retreat and rarely walk in the world.

In the vast region, there is a very special place, this place is called the Novice Village, which is specially prepared to welcome the strong people from the Nether.

In the Firmament Realm, there are many such novice villages. And this one is just one of them.

In many places, the novice village is very lively, but this novice village is very barren, and even on the streets of the village, there are no people walking in sight, and the houses on both sides of the street look dilapidated.

At the head of the village, there was an old man who was about to die, who looked like he could sink into the ground at any time, with his head bowed, his scattered gray hair without any rules, and his eyes were closed and listless.

Suddenly, the old man's head, which had not moved for a long time, lifted slightly, and a pair of eyes also moved, but he soon regained his composure.

"......it," a voice fell from the sky and then fell to the ground, smashing a deep pit in the long street.

"Lying ...... Trough...... Waist...... The waist is broken, ......" was full of painful pain.

This person is Yang Ning, and after entering the Firmament Realm, due to cultivation, it was difficult to adapt to gravity in the sky for a while, and he fell directly from the sky.

Falling down the street, with mixed tastes, Yang Ning could only helplessly run Ling Tianjue in the deep pit, and then keep recovering himself.

Finally, when the brilliance of dusk fell, Yang Ning's body recovered, even his broken waist, and he was completely restored at this moment.

Embarrassed, he crawled out of the pit, and then looked around.

"This is the Firmament Realm?" Yang Ning felt a little unreal, how could this be, the four fields were desolate, completely like a village that had been abandoned for a long time.

Although Yang Ning had cultivated to the realm of penetration, it was still difficult for him to adapt to the gravity of this heaven and earth.

"This is the gravity of the Upper Realm?" Every step Yang Ning took seemed to be hundreds of times more than the previous continent's gravity.

Yang Ning moved very slowly, and suddenly at the moment when Yang Ning moved, there was a feeling of hunger in his stomach.

"......" Yang Ning felt a little unreal, he hadn't felt hungry for many years.

With the rumbling of his stomach, Yang Ning finally saw the old man sitting on the street.

Yang Ning was a little shocked, after all, this village seems to have not been inhabited for a long time, how could anyone exist, and he is still such an old man.

"Senior, this is ......" Yang Ning felt that it was necessary for him to ask where he was first, especially about the distribution of some places in the Firmament Realm.

Of course, the most important thing is that Yang Ning is hungry at the moment, which needs to be solved urgently.

The old man didn't look up, but said in a low voice, "Novice Village." ”

"Newbie Village?" Yang Ning was stunned, how did he get to this kind of village, but there should be a lot of people in such a village, and the whole street, why is there only himself, and he didn't see Huanling Shangguan Wan'er and others, where did they go?

These are all questions that Yang Ning needs to explore, but of course Yang Ning will not ask them at this moment.

"Yes, Newbie Village." The old man still didn't look up.

"That senior is ......"

"What ...... me," the old man let out a sigh of relief, as if he hadn't breathed like this for a long time, and took a greedy breath, and then said, "Of course I'm the village chief here." ”

"The village chief?"

"That's right." The old man raised his head, finally glanced at Yang Ning, and then said, "Young man, finally a young man is here." ”

The old man seemed to have been lonely for a long time, looking at Yang Ning's eyes, which were originally dull, they suddenly became powerful.

"Come on, come on, I'll introduce you here."

So, Yang Ning dragged his hungry stomach and listened to the old man chattering for three hours.

There is no sun, no moonlight, but this novice village has a soft glow like moonlight.

Yang Ning finally figured out what this place was.

The Novice Village, as the name suggests, is the place where the powerhouses who have just ascended to the Firmament Realm stay.

It's just that because the novice village here has not received the powerhouses of the new upper realm for many years, the novice village here has begun to fall into ruin.

And some of the houses that Yang Ning can see at this moment are built by some strong people who lived many years ago, but because no one has taken care of them for many years, they look dilapidated at the moment.

And if Yang Ning wants to leave the novice village, he must cut bamboo on the mountain behind the novice village.

"Bamboo ......" Yang Ning felt a little familiar.

However, after three hours, Yang Ning felt that what he needed to solve most should be his stomach.

"Goo-Goo......

"Hungry?" The old man asked.

Yang Ning nodded.

Yang Ning took out the space ring from his hand, but soon Yang Ning knew how wrong he was.

Because the space ring shattered in the palm of his hand.

"......"

"The gravity here is not comparable to your Nether." The old man spoke, and then took out the corpse of a hare from his spatial ring.

"Yes, this is kind of a loan to you." The old man seemed to be very picky, using it as an excuse.

Yang Ning couldn't wait, hurriedly took over the carcass of the hare, and then lit a fire, removing the hare's skin, and soon there was a burst of meaty smell on the fire, and the golden oil continued to drip into the flames below.

Finally, half an hour later, Yang Ning began to feast, and soon a hare was dealt with by Yang Ning.

patted his stomach, Yang Ning felt very relieved.

The night passed quickly, and in the early morning of the second day, Yang Ning began to head towards the back mountain of the novice village.

Bamboo, it's green bamboo, but when Yang Ning's first sword fell, he felt why the task of the novice village had to be done like this.

The green bamboo is very tough, even if Yang Ning does it with all his might, after a sword, only a faint sword mark will be left on the green bamboo.

"If it goes on like this, wouldn't it take a lot of time for a hundred green bamboos?"

Yang Ning was very helpless, the Tianque Sword was already a divine weapon, but now because of his cultivation, he could only leave a faint sword mark on the green bamboo, which was not something Yang Ning could accept.

"Draw the sword!"

Yang Ning gathered momentum, but as Yang Ning's aura became deeper and deeper, Yang Ning felt the most deadly thing, that is, his sword drawing technique, which could not be superimposed to the level of the Nether Continent.

There are only a thousand stacks.

But with Yang Ning's cultivation breaking through the realm, even if it is a thousand superimposes, it is also unprecedented.

Bite!

The sword light fell, but it disappointed Yang Ning again, because on the green bamboo, the sword marks were still there, and they were deeper than the full sword just now, but it was still too early to cut off this green bamboo.

"Is it that hard?" Yang Ning was very helpless, and the hand holding the sword was painful.

What surprised Yang Ning the most was that the green bamboo companion was actually recovering on its own over time.

On the green bamboo, the two sword marks left by Yang Ning actually began to slowly recover.

"......"

"Doesn't that mean my two swords are in vain?" Yang Ning watched the sword marks getting shallower and shallower, and couldn't help but want to scold his mother, but Yang Ning's mentality had already grown with cultivation, and he was much more stable.

"In that case, let's start over." Yang Ning held the Tianque Sword in his hand, and then aimed at the green bamboo that had basically recovered, and fell towards the sword marks.

One sword, two swords......

Yang Ning seems to have fallen into a tireless felling.

But soon Yang Ning knew why the green bamboo here was so lush, and when the old man said it, there would be some place to smile.

However, as Yang Ning continued to slash, he also discovered a fact that shocked him, that is, these green bamboos didn't seem to have any effect on spiritual power or anything.

In other words, Yang Ning wanted to use cultivation as a blessing, and then swing his sword to cut down the green bamboo, which was almost almost no different from Yang Ning cutting down the green bamboo with pure physical strength.

"It seems that it is really difficult to cut enough green bamboos to cut a hundred."

However, Yang Ning would not give up, and kept swinging his sword, which also made Yang Ning's physical strength seriously consumed.

The old man was still sitting at the head of the village, listening to the constant sound of felling from the mountain behind, with a slight smile on his face.

"Young man, very down-to-earth, very good." As he spoke, the old man put away the piece of jade he was holding in his hand.

This jade is a light body jade, originally after every strong person ascended to the upper realm, the novice village would provide light body jade for every strong person, but the old man seemed to have not accepted a newcomer for many years, and forgot about it, so that Yang Ning still had to bear the gravity of this heaven and earth at the moment.

Soon, it was over in the morning, and Yang Ning didn't want to give up cutting down this green bamboo, because there was still half of it, and this green bamboo could be broken, but Yang Ning's stomach rang again uncontrollably.

"Alas......" Yang Ning sighed helplessly, and then his figure melted into the depths of the green bamboo forest, because Yang Ning had to hurry up, otherwise his efforts in the morning would be in vain. If he delays it for a long time, then the green bamboo will recover more, so Yang Ning must hurry up.

Yang Ning quickly caught the hare again from the depths of the green bamboo forest, but this time Yang Ning was not well prepared, so he could only quickly solve the hare, and then after hastily dealing with it, he could only start to bake the hare with spiritual power, and then began to swallow dates to fill his stomach.

Then he swung the Heavenly Sword.

Each sword is a display of pure strength, sword after sword, and each sword will have an endless sound of "ding, ding" at the gap cut by the green bamboo.

It didn't stop, and finally when dusk came, a green bamboo fell in response.

Yang Ning lay weakly between the green bamboo and dead leaves, and the tiredness he had never felt before made Yang Ning unable to get up.

I can only wait quietly to let my strength recover.

But Yang Ning knew that if this continued, the strength of his physical body, especially the pure physical body, would be greatly improved.

Three hours later, Yang Ning finally dragged the long green bamboo back from the back mountain.

"Not bad." The old man seemed to appreciate Yang Ning a little and nodded slightly.

Yang Ning smiled slightly, he didn't ask the old man to borrow a hare tonight, because he knew that he would have to pay it back if he borrowed it, so Yang Ning endured the hunger from his stomach, rested for the night, and then in the early morning of the next day, hurriedly entered the depths of the green bamboo forest, prepared the food he needed, and then began to come to the green bamboo forest.

Swinging the sword seems to have become Yang Ning's memory, although each sword will be accompanied by the sound of clanging, but Yang Ning has never stopped.

Soon, a month passed.

Yang Ning can only cut down one green bamboo every day, but this month, the time is shortening every day.

In the eyes of the old man at the head of the village, he saw more, and he was not curious about Yang Ning's origin, nor could he be curious, but for a motivated cultivator, he finally had a heart of love.
