Immediately after that, with a wave of the sleeves of the robe, the two were sent off the ring at the same time.

Some whispered.

"I already knew that this Zhen Qiran was wrong from the beginning of the stage, it's a pity that this opening competition has a sense of guilt, it's not cool, it's not cool enough."

"What's the use of that. As long as it wins, it is a success. ”

Zhao Ning glanced in the direction of Yun Jinfan, she walked to Guo Ying'er's side, the two girls were excited and excited at the moment, obviously they didn't expect to win like this.

After so many years, Yun Jinfan still practiced something in the end, no matter how lazy and uninhibited she was, time can always make up for some shortcomings, not to mention the guidance of the remnant soul of the Yuan Shen from time to time, no matter what her swordsmanship is, whether she is proficient or Dacheng, as long as Yun Jinfan does not secretly use her means in the sword fight, it can be regarded as a competition that should be recognized.

There are hundreds of sword fighting competitions in the sword fighting conference, and time is pressing, and it is even more impossible for Shi Yueze to delay the time on Yun Jinfan's body, so he quickly opened the next round, which is still a sword fighting in the foundation realm.

Zhao Ning didn't look, she noticed that the direction in which Zhen Qiran left was running, as if she was chasing something.

She paused in her heart, raised her eyes and looked at the sky, the faint figure was gone, so she chased out.

Zhao Ning didn't chase him far.

But I saw that Zhen Qiran had arrived on a high mountain, and there was an old man with white hair standing on the high mountain, and the old man's breath seemed to be about to dissipate at any time.

"Master!" As soon as Zhen Qiran saw the other party, he directly knelt at the other party's feet with a puff.

The old man turned his head, his eyes fell on Zhen Qiran, and Zhao Ning was not surprised when he saw his appearance, which was somewhat similar to the child's carefree master.

"Master, you ......"

Zhen Qiran didn't finish his words, but he was interrupted by the Master Xiaoyi dissatisfiedly, "Disciple, why did you lose." ”

Zhen Qiran was stunned, lowered his head and didn't dare to say more, he could only blame himself vigorously, "I'm sorry Master, I've embarrassed you." ”

"That's it, I'm influencing you."

The Master Xiaoyi sighed, but Zhen Qiran hurriedly spoke, "This has nothing to do with you, Master, it's a disciple who is in an unstable mood." ”

"Qi Ran, you must know that the path of cultivation is very long, and you will encounter a lot of things, and you can't just encounter a little thing and have a difficult state of mind and your swordsmanship affected. You are a sword cultivator, the intention of sword cultivation is firm, and your state of mind should be like a rock. ”

"Master, the apprentice knows, but the matter of the master is a trivial matter. What's more, Master, you, you ......" Zhen Qiran said a few times again and again, as if he was about to choke, but he didn't finish his words.

"Isn't it just a short time to die?" The Venerable Master said very plainly, as if he was not talking about life and death, "What is this, who in the world will not die?" ”

Zhao Ning didn't expect that it would be such a tragedy to meet the Master Xiaoyi again, but when the Master Xiaoyi turned into a god in the mundane, now he has returned to Bianzhou, and his cultivation and appearance have returned to his original condition, but he has not improved, which seems to explain something.

The words of the Master made Zhen Qiran even more sad.

"No, no, Master, you shouldn't have passed away, you can obviously transform into a god and achieve the primordial god honor, if it weren't for my ...... If you rush back to save me, it won't happen. ”

"You don't have to feel guilty." Master Xiaoyi said, "My grudge with the Purple Flame Sect has been involved for nearly a thousand years, and when Haoyang was still there, he was already on the same page. In the world, they also tried to trap me, but they didn't want me to escape. It's these bastards who have actually hit you and your family with their ideas, and they just want to take revenge on me! Oh, they succeeded. ”

"No, no, no, Master, it's none of your business, if I hadn't noticed the Purple Flame Sect's tricks, and I wouldn't have caused my father and mother to listen to their nonsense, go deep into the Xunlei Valley, and wake up the Xunlei Beast, I wouldn't have ...... I won't be alone in deep danger, unable to save myself, I can only wait for the master to break the precept and come here to save me from the broken void. ”

The more Zhen Qiran spoke, the more guilty he became, and the more he spoke, the more he hated, "Sooner or later, I will destroy the Purple Flame Sect and let them kneel in front of the master and kill themselves." ”

"Nonsense!" The Master of Freedom suddenly reprimanded, "The Purple Flame Sect has been inherited for thousands of years, and there are Yuan Shen Venerable in the sect, as well as three Yuan Ying Venerables, and more than ten Jindan real people, and most of them are top-grade Jindan, so how can you fight against the sect alone!" ”

Zhen Qiran was stunned, and then lowered his head sadly and angrily.

But the grievance in his heart still made him want to refute it out loud, "But can't Master also fight against the Purple Flame Sect with the power of one person?!" ”

"Shut up! Do you want to be angry with your master right now?! The Venerable Master Xiaoyi's face was very unpleasant, "When I was against the Purple Flame Sect back then, the Purple Flame Sect was almost in decline, heh, three thousand years, since I hooked up with Shang Haoyang, I don't know what benefits I have gained, and it has developed to such a point, I am afraid that even the Extreme Cold Palace will not be able to suppress it." ”

Zhen Qiran listened to the Venerable Master's evaluation, closed his eyes fiercely, but the depression in his heart could not dissipate, and he actually raised his hand and slapped himself fiercely.

Hate yourself for being useless, hate yourself for not being able to share your worries for your master, hate yourself for only watching Shizun forcibly break through the god-transforming blockade in order to save himself, and be fundamentally injured by the Xunlei rogue beast.

"Alright." The Master slowed down his tone again, "The master knows that you are not angry in your heart, and the teacher will teach you one more sentence at the end, the word 'knife' is on the top, and when you are strong enough, you will pick up the 'knife' again, you know?" ”

"Did you know?!" Zhen Qiran didn't answer, which made the Master Xiaoyi even more aggravated.

Zhen Qiran had no choice but to respond heavily.

"After the death of the master, the Purple Flame Sect may still come to deal with you. The Master told you that if you want to have peace for a while, there is only one way. The Master looked at Zhen Qi blankly, and then said to him, "Achieve the best Jindan." ”

But he didn't expect that the method of the Master of Freedom sounded a little incomprehensible, but Zhao Ning still couldn't help but think of the scene of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect a few years ago, and the attitude of the Purple Flame Sect towards the two top-grade golden pills that he snatched seemed to be ...... The top-grade Jindan has a transcendent status in the Purple Flame Sect, and it is even said that the Purple Flame Sect has an unusual tolerance for the top-grade Jindan.

Is it simply because the high-grade golden pill represents the most infinite potential?

Zhen Qiran was even more confused when he heard the six characters, but the Master Xiaoyi didn't seem to want to explain more.

He raised his head, his eyes fell on the big stone not far away, and he looked up and patted Zhen Qiran's head, "Let's go, Shizun wants to see an old man." ”

Zhao Ning could completely hide her aura in front of Zhen Qiran, but there was nothing to hide around the Master Xiaoyi, and since she followed Zhen Qiran here, the Master Xiaoyi had actually known about it.

"But, Master, I want to stay by your side." Zhen Qiran didn't move.

The Master laughed angrily and kicked him lightly and heavily, "Go aside, your master will still live for a while, and he won't die right away." ”

Zhao Ning slowly turned out from behind the big stone, Zhen Qiran knew that he could no longer disobey the order of his master, so he had to hang his head and retreat, and when he passed by Zhao Ning, his eyes paused, and then bowed.

Zhao Ning bowed slightly, and only waited for his figure to be out of sight, and then slowly approached.

The Master looked Zhao Ning up and down with a smile, and was amazed, "I think back then, your little girl had just built a foundation, and now she is actually in the middle of Jindan, tsk, this Jindan is a little strange, and the old man can't tell whether it is a top-grade Jindan." However, this true yuan is a top-grade golden pill. Tut-tut, it's been less than forty years, and it's really magical. Anyway, what about Qin Keyuan's guy, why didn't he see him? ”

Zhao Ning didn't answer, but stepped forward and walked onto the sidewalk.

At that time, it was also an alliance with the Master Xiaoyi, although it was a little disadvantaged, but after a few decades, it was nothing.

The Master realized something, so he just stroked his beard and nodded.

"Master Xiaoyi, I haven't seen him for many years, I wanted to say hello, but I didn't want to ......"

"This shows that we still have a fate, so that the old man can see the old man before he dies." The Master laughed, but after laughing for a while, his expression sank, and he took a few steps forward and shook his head, "Hide and hide, count and count, and still haven't escaped the revenge of the Purple Flame Sect." ”

"The grudge between the Master and the Purple Flame Sect is like this, and it never stops."

"Don't stop dying. They fucking ruined my chance to be reincarnated. ”

It was obviously a grief-stricken ending, but the Master said it as if he was just venting, as if he had really seen through it.

"Haoyang, you should know. The first day of Kunxu was proud. I didn't understand anything when I first entered the cultivation realm, and I followed him for a few years. But who knows, in the end, they parted ways, and it was even more overwhelming. The relationship between the Purple Flame Sect and Haoyang is extremely delicate, even if there is a bad fate of the Moon Occultation Fairy, it has not changed, they support Haoyang, but later they turned their backs on Haoyang for some reason. ”

"But, Zhao Ning." The Master called her, "This Tianjiao is still less subtle and can't afford it." ”

Zhao Ning did not speak.

She asked, "Why is this Purple Flame Sect so powerful, not to mention that the Yuan Shen Venerable is guarded, and the Yuan Infant Venerable protects the sect, only this dozen or so high-grade golden pills are worth the number of a cultivation realm." ”

"Some of them have cultivated the Eight Classics, some have been caught from other places but are willing to defect to them, and some are ...... Heh......" the Master shrugged, "the ghost knows how to achieve the high-grade golden pill." ”

"Your girl is very strange about Jindan, but be careful."

Zhao Ning nodded, but he didn't have much thought.

The Master looked up at the sky, which was cloudless and blue, and suddenly said, as if relieved, "That's fine." The old man is also tired of eating sugar gourds, so be it. ”

Zhao Ning looked up, and didn't know what to look at anymore, so he muttered, "Master Xiaoyi, what is a god?" ”

The Master chuckled, "Some people say that you must complete the unfinished mortal fate, some people say that if you have an obsession with reincarnation, you will not transcend reincarnation and become a primordial god, and some people say that it is simpler, saying that you can just go to the mundane world." ”

"Even those Venerable Beings who have successfully broken through through the Primordial Gods, they can't tell which step made them get out of the Avatars. The old man searched for clues for thousands of years but did not find an answer, but alas, the transformation of the god was imminent, so he had to choose the most compromise way to go to the mortal world. ”

The Master of Joy also laughed at himself when he talked about the experience of transforming into a god.

"How can there be a Venerable Master who can turn into a god by eating a sugar gourd, heh.

Three thousand years ago, I was born in the world, at the time of war and chaos, coupled with famine, later, my family either starved to death or was blocked by tree bark, I was lucky, when the homeless people rushed to the city, sneaked into the city, then I knew that the people below are not hungry, but the princes and nobles above are still big fish and meat, do you know what the first bite I ate in the city? ”

Zhao Ning guessed.

"A sugar gourd that has been bitten in half and there is still half of the insect corpse hidden in it, haha, I still remember the appearance of the prince and young master in the carriage who was disgusted by the insects and wanted to vomit. But that half of the sugar gourd really pulled me back from the brink of fainting, and also allowed me to support me until I met my benefactor. ”

"Later, I kept thinking that the sugar gourd was the turning point of my whole life, and if it weren't for it, I might have died on that day without any waves." The Master seemed to be unable to stand, he bent over the ground, stretched his legs, and sat on the edge of the cliff, like a child, "So when the time came to transform into a god, I thought of countless possibilities, and my last thought was still hanging on this sugar gourd." ”

Zhao Ning followed and squatted beside him.

"Little girl, am I stupid?"

Zhao Ning shook his head, "If it were me, it would probably be the same choice." ”

The Master laughed, "I can't see it, the little girl is very pleasant to speak." ”

"Since I'm going to die, do me a favor?" ”

"You say."

"Shine on my unassailant disciple. This is the only offspring who has awakened the blood of my benefactor, and I want to keep him alive until one day he can save his benefactor. ”

Zhao Ning was slightly surprised, "Your benefactor ......"

"He's still alive, he's alive and well, but unfortunately he'll never see him again."

The Master sighed, if the emotions of the Master were only superficial waves, only when he said this, he was truly sad.

"Does Zhen Daoren know?"

"When the time comes, his bloodline will tell him."

The Master stood up, greeted the glow of the sunset, and stretched his waist very casually, "That's it." It's time to say goodbye. ”

He didn't wait for Zhao Ning to speak, he went straight to the sunset, and walked down, like an ordinary ordinary old man.

Halfway through, Zhen Qiran suddenly broke out and stopped in front of Master Xiaoyi, tears were already raining down, but he couldn't say anything.

The Master Xiaoyi didn't answer, he pushed Zhen Qiran away with one hand without the slightest nostalgia, and continued to walk his own road to dusk.

Zhen Qiran didn't give up, so he followed behind the Master Xiaoyi on his knees.

The Master didn't know where to go or where to stop, from dusk to dawn, from dark to dawn, and Zhen Qiran's knees behind him were already bloody and his bones were exposed, but he didn't let out a shout.

Zhao Ning didn't know how to describe this scene, she saw the determination and death of the Master of Ease, and saw Zhen Qiran's despair and pleading.

She doesn't understand, and maybe no one understands, only they themselves in the world understand their own sorrows.

But at this moment, the Master Xiaoyi stepped on the line of morning and dusk, half light and half dark, and suddenly he looked up at the rising sun, and the momentum on his body began to rise steadily, and thunderclouds suddenly appeared in the sky, which was originally clear.

Thunder and punishment brewed in the thick and oppressive clouds.

Even Zhen Qiran struggled to get up in surprise, his eyes were full of astonishment, and then turned into great joy, "Master, Master, it is the Divine Thunder Punishment, you have succeeded, you are going to be promoted to the Yuan Shen, you ......"

But his joy paused when the Master turned his eyes to look at him faintly.

Deeper despair surged into Zhen Qiran's heart.

"It's useless." The Master said to him, "My body is no longer able to support me through the Divine Thunder Punishment. ”

"Master !!" Zhen Qiran rushed forward, but then was grabbed by the instantaneous Zhao Ning.
