Chapter 64: Young Palace Master
Xiao Chen had been on his knees for three days, but in order to resist the endless pressure on the 999th staircase, the loss in his body could not be recovered at all, and even became more and more unoptimistic as time went on. At this moment, Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyes, although he was in danger, his eyes were still calm, and there was no panic.
"Although the staircase in front of me is strange, but moving forward to this last step should never be such a sure defeat. ”
"Judging from the energy fluctuations of this last ladder, don't say it's me, I'm afraid that the peak of the world will not fall and the power in the later stage will not want to break through. ”
"There must be something strange about this. ”
Xiao Chen's face was ugly, he stopped here for three days, carefully observed, but did not find the slightest abnormality, if he continued to delay, I am afraid that he would really retreat from this step today. It took almost a month to do something like this, but how do you take the final step?
Xiao Chen frowned, although he was tired, his eyes were still flashing countless forbidden runes at this moment, trying to analyze and find a way to crack it. As time passed, the forbidden path runes in Xiao Chen's eyes flickered faster and faster, and his complexion became even paler, and later it almost turned a faint cyan.
"No, although the moment was extremely short, there must have been something unusual about this last stone platform. ”
Xiao Chen stopped suddenly, but when he sensed it carefully, the slightest strangeness flashed by, and no matter how carefully he searched, he never found it again.
"The feeling of this moment is definitely there, and it is very likely to have something to do with how to get through the last staircase, and I think it will definitely be there. ”
Xiao Chen closed his eyes, and once again opened his heart, he had returned to the state of the ancient well without waves, and waited calmly.
An hour later, that familiar feeling reappeared, and this time Xiao Chen paid attention to it, and the feeling was a little clearer. But Xiao Chen didn't pay attention to it, and continued to wait silently, like an old monk entering the meditation.
Five hours later, Xiao Chen's face showed hesitation, although he vaguely understood something at this moment, he was not completely sure in his heart. If there is a mistake, the consequences will be unimaginable, but the key is that at this moment, his primordial spirit and mana are almost exhausted, and he can't give him more time to crack it.
"This left eyebrow dojo is extremely weird, it can't be said that there is a great opportunity to create in it, if it retreats like this, Xiao Chen will regret it in the future. ”
"Moreover, I have a hunch in my heart that this place is by no means ordinary, and if Xiao Chen retreats at this moment, it is very likely that he will miss it. ”
After a while, Xiao Chen's eyes condensed slightly, and his eyes showed resolute intentions, cultivators are going against the sky, they need to go through a great crisis to harvest great creation, wandering between life and death, how can they be deterred by the crisis, if so, I am afraid that they will not be able to set foot on the peak in their lifetime.
Standing up, although his body was weak, Xiao Chen still tried to straighten his back, slowly closed his eyes, and waited for the familiar feeling to appear.
Now is the time!
Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes, took the next step, and stepped heavily on the last step of the stairs.
Rumble!
The entire thousand-layer staircase trembled, and the monstrous pressure came like a devastating one, unmatched, once it fell, it was enough to kill Xiao Chen on the spot.
"Is it wrong?" Xiao Chen's face was calm, but his eyes showed unwillingness, there were still many things that had not been completed in this life, and he was unwilling to die so inexplicably!
Wandering between life and death once, Xiao Chen's heart was slightly relieved, and he finally couldn't resist the endless exhaustion, and barely took the last step before his mind fell into darkness, and passed out in front of the main gate of the left eyebrow dojo.
Just after Xiao Chen's mind completely fell into a coma, a crack suddenly opened in the door of the left eyebrow dojo, and then a figure timidly walked out of it.
。。。。。
In a certain courtyard, there was a young monk lying on the bed, who was sleeping soundly at the moment, covered with a brocade quilt, and the corners of the quilt were folded very comfortably but not suffocating.
The room is not large, the light is moderate, the layout is small, and it can be seen from the details that the owner's mind should be extremely delicate.
At this moment, the young monk on the bed moved his fingers slightly, then stood still, and after a moment slowly opened his eyes, revealing caution, and swept around without noticing the danger, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
This young monk is none other than Xiao Chen.
"Where is this?" Xiao Chen frowned, and then stood up, after cultivating the wear and tear in the body, he had recovered completely, and the clothes on his body had changed, what he was wearing at the moment was a noble robe, the material was unknown, although it looked extremely wide, but the texture was quite light and cool to the touch, and the gold and silver threads on it were woven with countless lines, which looked mysterious and difficult to understand, and it was quite obscure.
Xiao Chen noticed that the storage ring in his hand was still there, and his heart was a little relieved, and he pushed the door out with a slight groan, and walked into the courtyard. At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, and Xiao Chen raised his head, just in time to see a shadow pushing the door in.
The little girl looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a well-fitting palace dress, and her sleeves were wider than ordinary, and she was sassy in the wind. The waist is tightly tucked, and underneath is a goose-yellow long dress. Comb the hair knots simply, wear only a few stars of milky white pearls, reflecting the dark and bright clouds, a beautiful heart-shaped face, a small and straight nose, curved willow eyebrows, and thin cherry lips.
Although he is still young, it is not difficult to see that in the future, he will definitely be a beauty who has fallen into the country and the city. Seeing Xiao Chen, the little girl was obviously a little nervous, her watery eyes were shy and timid, her green and jade fingers were twisted together, her face was flushed, and she bowed her head slightly.
Xiao Chen's face was slightly dumbfounded, the person who came was actually a little girl, although it was unexpected, but it made him feel a lot more at ease, and at this moment he groaned slightly, and asked: "Dare to ask, but the fairy saved him, Xiao Chen is grateful in his heart." ”
Fairy, perhaps only this is the only way to describe this little girl, who is really as unbearable as a little fairy.
The little girl was obviously a little panicked when she heard this, and waved her hand again and again, "The young palace master is serious, the slave and maid are just people, how can the young palace master be called so." With that, he fell to his knees, his delicate body trembling.
Young palace master?
Xiao Chen frowned, this title made him a little inexplicable, but seeing the little girl so panicked at this moment, he couldn't bear it.
"I'm not a young palace master, you don't need to be so respectful to me, and ask the fairy to tell me, where is this place?"
The little girl raised her head timidly, and saw that Xiao Chen's face was gentle, so she got up cautiously and said respectfully: "The young palace master has passed the test laid by the old palace master, so he is naturally the young palace master." ”
"But there are many things that the slave and maid don't know, but Shubo must know. However, it is inconvenient for him to move now, and it was he who told me just now that the young palace master woke up, so he asked me to come and invite you over. ”
"Uncle Shu?"
Xiao Chen thought for a moment, waved his hand and said, "Labor is leading the way, but Xiao Chen has many questions to ask. ”
When the little girl heard this, she secretly glanced at Xiao Chen with her eyes, and then led the way to the outside.
Along the way, Xiao Chen's eyes swept across and looked at the gorgeous palace pavilions, with a thoughtful look on his face. The little girl quietly led the way, turning back from time to time to secretly peek at Xiao Chen, and her little face was gradually full of redness, which made Xiao Chen a little puzzled, so she had to ignore it.
After a while, the two of them crossed the arched bridge and entered a garden, where strange flowers bloomed and the breeze brought a little fragrance, which made people feel happy. There is a locust tree in the garden, the two of them hug each other, although it has grown for many years, but it is still flourishing and vigorous.
"The old slave locust tree spirit, I can't go to the young palace master in person to see the ceremony, and I ask the young palace master to forgive me. "Under the locust tree stood an old man, thin and small, dressed in a tawny shirt, with a respectful face.
Xiao Chen's eyes fell on this old man, his gaze was slightly condensed, and then he arched his hand and said: "The senior is serious, Xiao Chen inadvertently broke into here, if there is any offense, please forgive the senior." ”
No wonder Xiao Chen is polite, this seemingly extremely inconspicuous old man is actually a powerful monk in the late stage of the fall, although the breath in his body is obscure and introverted, but the faint breath is revealing destructive fluctuations, which is not to be underestimated.
"Don't be like this, the young palace master is really tormenting the old slave. The locust tree spirit returned the salute with excitement, not as if it was fake.
Xiao Chen frowned, why did the little girl and this old man call him the young palace master, this is really strange.
Seeing this, the locust tree spirit arched his hand and said: "Presumably, the young palace master must have countless doubts in his heart at this moment, please sit down and let the old slave explain to you." ”
Xiao Chen didn't shirk too much, nodded and sat down, but the little girl and the locust tree spirit stood respectfully and refused to sit down.
With a slight sigh, Xiao Chen spoke, "The juniors don't know in their hearts, why do the seniors call the junior young sect master, and ask the seniors to make it clear." ”
"If the young palace master wants to, you can call me Shubo, and when the old palace master was still alive, he also called me like this before. At the mention of the old palace master, a little sadness flashed in Shu Bo's eyes, but he was immediately suppressed by him.
"A month ago, the young sect master entered the left eyebrow dojo, and he had already automatically started the postgraduate examination laid by the old palace master, and the young sect master could pass the thousand-layer ladder, which can be regarded as a preliminary completion of the assessment, and naturally became the young palace master of my left eyebrow dojo. ”
When he said this left eyebrow dojo, Uncle Shu's face was proud, and his old face couldn't help but stretch out.
