Chapter 117: The First Man in History
The next day, early in the morning, Worthen saw off Wuqi early. He didn't plan to tell the other disciples that Wuqi had returned, so he sent Wuqi to the foot of Wushan alone at dawn.
"Little rabbit, Master will send it to you. Worthen looked at Wuqi reluctantly and said lightly.
"Master, I haven't said goodbye to my brother and sister yet, is that okay?"
"No need to say goodbye. They never cared about you. I've long regarded you as a dispensable existence. Go quickly, go early and come back early, Master wishes you a smooth journey. ”
"Good ......" I don't know what to do, maybe it was because the master said goodbye to him in person for the first time, Wuqi was a little reluctant, and even had a faint sadness in his heart.
He looked back at Walthorn getting farther and farther away from him, and suddenly felt that this master, who had never liked to call him by his name and called him "little rabbit cub", seemed to be much older than when he was a child. Master's hair had been half gray since he was born, but at this time, there were more white hairs than before, and the originally black temples had turned into two slender white lines.
Somehow, Wuqi's figure walked farther and farther under Worthen's gaze, but his heart was getting more and more uncomfortable, as if he had been holding something in his chest, and he didn't vomit or feel unhappy. But Wuqi has endured it, because he is no longer the weak-willed child he was at the beginning, but has grown into a teenager, he told himself that he has to endure everything, and if a man has tears, he can't cry.
However, when Wuqi walked more than fifty steps, turned around again and found that Waltson had turned around and walked slowly towards Wushan, and after looking at his back, it seemed that he had suddenly become extremely depressed and lonely, he finally couldn't suppress the surging excitement in his heart, and called out loudly: "Master!!"
This call came from the heart, the voice was not loud, but the penetrating power seemed to be able to penetrate the clouds and penetrate the bottom of Waltson's heart. Worthen's thin body trembled slightly, and he suddenly turned around, only to find that Wuqi's face was covered with snot and tears, and he was rushing towards him with excitement on his face. His heart couldn't help but move.
After Master!!'s strength reached the intermediate spell master level, Wuqi's speed was much faster than that of ordinary people, and he only took a few steps to reach Worthen's side, and threw himself into the arms of the old man who had raised him and taught him. Although Worthen's body was not strong, and even a little thin, his shoulders were not broad, and he was not even tall, but Wuqi felt unusually warm in his arms, as if the warmest thing in this world was here.
"Master, thank you!"
Worthen's eyes flashed with a hint of relief and emotion, he gently patted Wuqi's back, smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Silly boy." Thanks for what. You are Master's good disciple, and Master should take care of you. ”
"Master. Wuqi grabbed Worthen's clothes and sobbed in Worthen's arms for a long time, then slowly raised his head, looked at the old face that he loved the most, and said in a begging tone for the first time: "Master, will you come with me?"
Worthen pale for a moment, then gently touched Wuqi's little head, smiled at his still slightly childish little face, and said softly: "Silly apprentice." If you ask Master and I to accompany you down the mountain, what if there are so many disciples on Wushan?"
"But...... I...... I don't want to leave Master anymore. ”
A hint of relief and emotion flashed in Worthen's eyes again, and then he smiled and patted Wuqi's back, and said with a relaxed face: "You little rabbit cub." Didn't you already tell Master that you want to become stronger?"
"Hmm. Wuqi nodded without thinking, and a mischievous smile suddenly appeared on Worthen's face, and he continued: "If you always let Master be by your side, you will never be able to get stronger." Now that you are still young, Master, I can still cover you. Are you going to wait for Master and I to completely turn into a bad old man with a hunched back and still cover you everywhere? At that time, Master, I was going to let you cover me! If you don't hurry up and cultivate now, and then you won't be as strong as Master, then we will have to drink the northwest wind. ”,
As soon as Worthen said this, Wuqi couldn't help but laugh at once, and the atmosphere became relaxed in these few jokes. Wuqi's mood is no longer as sad as before, but very comfortable. He slowly withdrew from Worthen's embrace, wiped the snot and tears from his face, and chuckled, "Master, then I'm leaving!"
Worthen smiled and nodded heavily, "That's right." This is the same as the apprentice in my impression, you just now squirmed and pinched, like a girl. By the way, Master, I have a map here, which I drew from memory after traveling to the Lanfa Continent in the past few decades, which is a bit rough, but it should also be able to let you know that there are some places in the Lanfa Continent that are dangerous and you can't enter. Also, this time you don't have a definite destination when you go down the mountain anyway, so you can go to the capital of the Rosa Kingdom and the Ottoman Empire, and tell the two old guys in your book about swordsmanship and axe fighter cultivation. They've been waiting for you for a long time, and now that you're over, it should be about the right time. ”
Zhilu said. Wuqi nodded heavily, and Watson slowly reached into his sleeve, took out a drawing rolled into a cylinder, and handed it to Wuqi's hand. Wuqi took the drawing, his curiosity suddenly rose, and when he opened it, a strange look appeared on his face.
It was an ordinary drawing, and the white paper had turned completely yellow due to the passage of time, but the map drawn on this drawing was an eye-opener for Wuqi. Originally, he thought that his hometown Wushan, the Rosa Kingdom and the Ottoman Empire were the whole of the entire world, but when he really saw the map in his hand, it suddenly dawned on him.
It turned out that the three locations he knew only accounted for a small part of the Ranfa continent. Strictly speaking, these three locations together are only one-third the size of the entire Lanfa continent, and the two outer two-thirds are completely strange. It was also a full two-thirds of the way he hadn't even heard of it, and this map immediately made Wuqi's eyes suddenly light up.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Waltson, and said in surprise: "Master, it turns out that our Wushan only occupies such a small place on the Lanfa Continent. As he spoke, he gestured with his finger and continued: "Also, this Rosa Kingdom and the Ottoman Empire, I originally thought it was very big, and it was already about seventy or eighty percent of the entire Lanfa Continent. It turns out that this is only the case. I didn't expect the continent of Lanfa to be so vast, and there are so many places I haven't been to. ”
Vorzen Ha smiled, his waist suddenly straightened, he raised his head and smiled while stroking his beard, and said with a smug face: "If it is in terms of personal strength, your master and I are definitely inferior to the two old guys of the Sword Saint Abel of the Ottoman Empire and the Dou Saint Ugins of the Rosa Kingdom. But if you talk about the level of familiarity with the Lanfa Continent, Master, if I am the second in this world, absolutely no one will dare to call me the first. ”
After listening to Worthen's explanation, Wuqi suddenly felt that the figure of the master seemed to suddenly become infinitely tall in front of his eyes, and for the first time, he felt that the amount of knowledge was as important as strength. Wuqi's eyes were even more golden, and he asked curiously: "Then Master, tell me quickly, what are the differences between the strange places on this one after another?"
Watson lowered his head slightly, looking at Wuqi with endless smugness in his eyes, he pointed to a place on the map and said slowly: "In the westernmost part of our Wushan Mountain, there is a country that is completely twice the size of the Rosa Kingdom and the Ottoman Empire, and that country is called the Husmi Neutral Nation. Like the Kingdom of Rosa and the Ottoman Empire, this country also had their faith, and they followed the way of the soldier throughout the country. That is, the content of the page between the balances in your nameless ancient scroll is similar, advocating the simultaneous cultivation of various cultivation techniques. Relying on this extremely difficult cultivation method to reach the realm of invincibility. However, there are very few people who can really train the way of a soldier to the fullest, let alone reach the level of a master. Ordinary people may not be able to reach the level of a high-ranking soldier after cultivating hard all their lives, let alone break through. ”
Wuqi nodded as if he had realized something, this was indeed the same as the page between the balance in the Nameless Scroll, so he asked, "So, the strength of this Husmi neutral country should be weaker than the two countries of Uncle Sword Saint and Uncle Dou Sheng?"
"Nope. Watson closed his eyes slightly and shook his head slowly: "Not only is it not weak, but it is stronger than any of these two countries." Because although they have few master-level soldiers, due to their large numbers, they can be seen everywhere in the country. This is incomparable to the other two countries, and two hundred years ago, the neutral country of Husmi also produced a peerless genius, his cultivation talent was far beyond ordinary people, and it actually took about two hundred years to improve his strength from a junior soldier to the peak of a master-level soldier. Then he successfully broke through the bottleneck and entered the Sanctuary level. This person is the famous previous king of the neutral country of Hughesmi, Balvin, who is known as the emperor, also known as the first person in history. ”
"Balvin?" Wuqi was stunned, he had heard his master tell that when he was born, a man named Balvin wanted to kill him, and it was his master, the Sword Saint, and the Dou Sheng, who joined forces to kill that person, and Wuqi's memory also vaguely remembered that there was indeed such a thing.
So he asked in surprise, "Is that the Balvin who was killed by Uncle Sword Saint and Uncle Dou Sheng?"
"Not bad. That's him. But it's a pity that he was obsessed with ghosts at the beginning, and if he hadn't wanted to grab the nameless scroll, he wouldn't have gotten this kind of fate. The strength of a soldier who has reached the peak of the Sanctuary is almost invincible against any Sanctuary powerhouse. But it's a pity that he met two Sacred Domain powerhouses, and they were both at the peak, plus they also joined forces together, so he lost. However, if it were a real one-on-one duel, no one would be his opponent. Moreover, at that time, Balvin's energy had already been consumed a lot, and he did not fight when his physical strength was completely full, but was attacked by the Dou Sheng and the Sword Saint when his physical strength was empty, and he finally fell and died on the spot. It's a pity ......"
Worthen's words revealed endless regret, but there was another experience in Wuqi's ears, he had always thought that this Sword Saint and Dou Saint were already completely invincible existences, but he didn't expect that there were still people stronger than the two of them.
Although Balvin, who was stronger than all of them, eventually died, Wuqi's heart seemed to have been opened a new door, and a question suddenly arose in his heart that he had never even thought about before: Isn't this peak powerhouse of the Sanctuary Realm the strongest?
