Chapter 41: Humans or Ghosts?

The man was an old man with gray hair, who was seventy or eighty years old, and his face was wrinkled and old. He was dressed in white clothes, tattered, his gray hair was dirty and messy, his white beard was curly, and his eyes were cloudy and blurred, and he could not see any anger. And his body was suspended in the deepest part of the whirlpool, as if the buoyancy of the water could support his body.

As his eyes opened, there was no sharp light, and his eyes were still looking at the huge whirlpool around him, compared to this whirlpool, his body was as small as an ant.

Then, slowly, he stood up, his feet on the water, his eyes still looking around in confusion. Then, following the whirlpool, he walked slowly towards the bank of the river, as if there was an invisible ladder on the whirlpool.

He walked slowly to the shore, looked around, and shook his head again. Suddenly, he heard a commotion in the distance, and then he noticed that there was a large piece of light there, and then a silly smile appeared on his old face, and he walked towards the light.

At the village chief's house, there was a lot of noise at this moment, and a large number of people were sitting around Zhou Tianlong. At this time, Zhou Tianlong was already spinning, because he drank too much, he talked more and more, and kept telling these villagers about some things in cultivation, and the villagers were full of interest in those martial artists in the outside world, so they naturally listened to him very carefully.

"Ahh

Although there was a lot of noise here, the exclamation instantly stopped all the sounds, and everyone looked at the exclamation, which was from a woman, and following her gaze, everyone suddenly found an old man standing at the door.

The old man, dressed in tattered white clothes, stood there silently, and the most terrifying thing was that his feet did not stand on the ground, but were suspended in mid-air, looking from afar, like a ghost.

Suddenly, the exclamation of surprise spread throughout the courtyard, and the villagers rushed into it like crazy, for fear of what the old man would do to them.

Zhou Tianlong was frightened by this scene, and he also woke up a lot, but his fright did not come from the old man, but from the exclamations of those villagers. The so-called "people are scary, scared to death", Zhou Tianlong was not frightened by the old man, but was frightened by the startled exclamations of these villagers.

Zhou Tianlong looked back at Zheng Fei, and Zheng Fei's face was also very solemn. They are martial artists, and they naturally know that there are no ghosts in this world, and this old man can actually stand in the air, which shows that his cultivation has reached a very high level.

As far as Zhou Tianlong knew, martial artists above the Emperor Martial Realm could master the art of controlling the sky, and could fly in the sky or stand in the air.

"How can this old man have such strength? The Great Elder once told me that there are only seven Emperor Martial Realm martial artists in the entire Tianyu Empire, I don't know who he is?" Zhou Tianlong thought secretly in his heart.

But Zhou Tianlong hadn't finished thinking about it, and a more terrifying scene appeared in front of his eyes.

The old man's body slowly disappeared from the gate.

"Ahh

Then, on the chair next to a table, the space suddenly squirmed, and an illusory white figure appeared there, it was the old man just now.

The villagers couldn't stand it anymore, and ran away like crazy, and the gate was even more crowded, pushing and shoving each other, and the whole courtyard was in chaos.

"Don't panic, everyone!" Zhou Tianlong shouted loudly: "He's not a ghost! he's just a martial artist with a high level of cultivation!"

The villagers looked at each other, and the strongest martial artist they had ever seen was the Fire Cloud Evil God Wang Tong. And the strength shown by the old man in front of him far exceeded the scope of their cognition.

Suddenly, the villagers whispered:

"Maybe it's really not a ghost! I've heard that some martial artists with a high level of cultivation can have the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, fly to the heavens and the earth, and be omnipotent!"

"Yes, I've also heard that after a martial artist reaches a certain realm, he can fly and disappear in an instant! ”

Someone then retorted: "Have you seen it with your own eyes? Those are just legends, people are still human beings after all, how can they have such powerful abilities?"

"Yes, yes!" Someone immediately chimed in: "How can a person float in mid-air, I think he is probably a ghost!"

"Impossible!" Someone retorted: "The great hero says that he is a martial artist, so he must be a famous martial artist! Do you dare to doubt that the great hero is not successful?"

"This ......" These villagers saw that someone had moved Zhou Tianlong out, and they immediately stopped talking. After all, in their eyes, Zhou Tianlong is a god-like existence at this moment, and since Zhou Tianlong said that the old man is not a ghost, then he must really not be a ghost.

Although some people doubted Zhou Tianlong's judgment, these people did not dare to say it, because they knew that once they said it, they would inevitably be angry. Now, in the eyes of these villagers, whoever disobeys Zhou Tianlong's will is even more serious than disobeying God's will.

Therefore, all the villagers shrank in all corners, although they no longer fled, but their eyes stared at the old man with fear, and their whole bodies trembled, and even a few of them were timid, and they had already burrowed under the table.

At this moment, Zhou Tianlong was also extremely shocked in his heart, and looked back at Zheng Fei, Zheng Fei's eyes were also full of disbelief.

"Spatial teleportation?" Although Zhou Tianlong had never seen it, he had heard of it after all, so he recognized at a glance the ability of the old man to suddenly disappear and suddenly appear as a spatial teleportation just now.

"I once heard Master say that spatial teleportation is an extremely profound ability, and only martial artists above the Emperor Martial Realm can possess it! This old man turned out to be a martial artist of the Emperor Martial Realm!" Zhou Tianlong's head was in chaos. He remembered that the Great Elder had said at that time that in the Tianyu Empire, although the highest cultivation on the surface was the martial artist of the Emperor Martial Realm, there were always some hidden masters, and their strength had surpassed that of the Emperor Martial Realm.

Thinking that this old man was actually a terrifying existence whose strength surpassed that of the Sect Master and the Rain Emperor, Zhou Tianlong's heart was shocked.

"This kind of thing actually happened to me, who is this old man?" Although Zhou Tianlong knew that the old man was not a ghost, the awe of the old man in his heart could not be expressed in words.

The master of the Emperor Martial Realm, he has only seen the Rain Emperor Ouyang Qingfeng, and the master of the Emperor Martial Realm has never seen it in his life, he really doesn't know what kind of strength they will have, but he is afraid that when he raises his hand, the entire outer gate of the Tianyu Sect will cease to exist.

The old man didn't seem to be aware of the shock and fear he brought to his surroundings, but he sat on a chair alone, grabbed the food on the table with his hands, stuffed it into his mouth vigorously, and nodded while eating: "Delicious! Delicious!" A silly smile appeared on his face.

Suddenly, the old man turned his head, looked at the people who were hiding in the corners of the walls, and even crawled under the table, and smirked at them: "What are you all standing there doing? Come and eat with me, why don't you eat such a good thing!"

The villagers were scared to death and didn't dare to go over to eat with him, so they stayed in place one by one, shaking their clothes and trembling.

Zhou Tianlong's eyes stared at the old man: Although this old man is a master of the Emperor Martial Realm, no matter how he looks, it is not right. His face was full of sluggishness and silliness, and it was impossible for people to think of him as a peerless master. What the hell is going on with him? What kind of master of the Emperor Martial Realm would actually show a stupid expression?

Seeing that the villagers were so frightened that they didn't dare to move, Zhou Tianlong swallowed his spit, walked to the old man's side with courage, and bowed down: "Hello, senior!"

The old man looked at Zhou Tianlong with those cloudy eyes and nodded: "Hello, little friend!"

Zhou Tianlong felt even more puzzled in his heart: these eyes, where are they like the eyes of a peerless powerhouse, without a little spirit, full of confusion and turbidity!

"Could it be that he is not a martial artist of the Emperor Martial Realm, so how can he use spatial teleportation?" Zhou Tianlong was confused.

The old man pulled out a chair from the side, pointed at it, and said to Zhou Tianlong, "Sit! Eat with me!"

Zhou Tianlong nodded, then sat down next to the old man, took a few symbolic bites, and then asked, "May I ask the old man's surname, is it from the Tianyu Empire?"

The old man raised his head and looked at Zhou Tianlong, and said with a puzzled face: "What does the honorable name mean? What is the Tianyu Empire?"

Damn! Zhou Tianlong almost shouted, what is the situation, is this old man an idiot?

Zhou Tianlong forcibly held back the surprise in his heart, and slowly explained: "The name of the honorable name is to ask what is your name?" After finishing speaking, Zhou Tianlong suddenly had the feeling that he was teaching children.

"Oh......" the old man dragged in a long voice: "What does that mean?"

He scratched his head vigorously and looked at Zhou Tianlong with confused eyes: "You can name me!"

Zhou Tianlong was completely speechless this time, he could 100% conclude that this old man definitely had a mental problem.

How could a powerhouse in the Emperor Martial Realm end up like this? Zhou Tianlong was puzzled.

"Old man, where are you from, where is your home?" Zhou Tianlong asked again.

The old man stretched out his hand and pointed to the east, and said slowly, "I came from the river to the east. ”

"What?" Zhou Tianlong was even more puzzled: "You came from the river?

The old man also shook his head a little confused, as if carefully recalling the past: "I don't know why I came from the river? If I remember correctly, a thousand years ago, I seemed to die in this river!"
