When Dong Xiaolong returned to the dormitory, Tang Hanfeng was the only one in the room, and Lin Yan and Yuan Ming didn't know where they had gone.

"Big brother, where are you, Lin Yan and Yuan Ming?" Dong Xiaolong asked.

"I didn't see either of them when I came back. Leave them alone, I just have something to tell you. Tang Hanfeng got up and said.

"What's the matter?" Dong Xiaolong felt Tang Hanfeng suddenly become serious.

"Xiaolong, the lifespan of the cultivator realm to reach the realm of the Jie Dan is at least a hundred years, and it is also possible to reach the realm of the Tribulation and live to a lifespan of a thousand years. Tang Hanfeng looked at Dong Xiaolong, his eyes were a little sad.

"Big brother, what do you mean?" Dong Xiaolong was also a little confused by Tang Hanfeng's words.

Tang Hanfeng knew in his heart that if Dong Xiaolong continued to get involved in the incident about the Dark Realm, he would really never be able to return to his original life. Maybe now he can give him a chance to choose, even if he chooses to give up, Tang Hanfeng will not stop him. It's just that this arrangement of fate is not something that Tang Hanfeng can shake, even if he intends to help Dong Xiaolong, he may not be able to escape. If he is really the one who affects the fate of the world, then there is indeed not much time left for him.

"There is one thing you have to think clearly, if you continue to cultivate, you will be far away from the normal life, and as your cultivation improves, you will have a long lifespan, and you will also face the problem that your relatives and friends will slowly leave you. ”

Hearing Tang Hanfeng's words, Dong Xiaolong's heart was a little shaken. Cultivation has been his dream since he was a child, but he is also a filial child, and his family is very important to him, and it is difficult for him to make a choice for a while.

Seeing Dong Xiaolong's difficult choice, Tang Hanfeng still opened his mouth to comfort him and said, "I don't mean that you have to give up your cultivation, you can have a choice. Choose to spend decades of ordinary life, and after you have accompanied your family through the journey of life, come to me to cultivate. ”

Tang Hanfeng knew that if Dong Xiaolong chose to live like this, then if he waited until a few decades later and then worked hard to cultivate, he would miss the best opportunity to cultivate. But he still wanted to give Dong Xiaolong this choice, after all, this fate was too cruel for Dong Xiaolong.

"Does that mean I can't cultivate anymore in the future?"

"It's not impossible to cultivate, but you have to know that the world you live in is not very suitable for cultivation. What you need to cultivate is to constantly hone yourself, and in this world, with your current strength, it is already extraordinary, and when you cultivate a little more, you will almost be an invincible existence. In such an environment, it is difficult to go far, no matter how high your understanding is. ”

Dong Xiaolong knew that if he wanted to pursue the pinnacle of cultivation, he might be able to leave here, and Tang Hanfeng's words clearly showed that this world was definitely not just what he knew.

"Big brother, what is this world like, and what kind of existence is the so-called dark world?" Dong Xiaolong asked.

"I know that Yuan Ming is not a person who can hide secrets, but I didn't want to hide it from you, but it's not time to tell you yet, so I'll tell you all today. Do you remember the scene you saw the day I gave you the jade?"

Dong Xiaolong nodded, he still remembers the scene he saw that day.

"In fact, there are multiple spaces in this world at the same time, and the place where you are is is the human world. There are four other spatial worlds above this human realm, one is the fairy realm and the other is the underworld. And the place I came to is called the Upper Realm, and the legend is that it is a world opened up by the old world lord, but through the scene you see from the jade, I think of a possibility, the upper realm is a space that exists in itself, but the old world lord opened up this space, not him opened up this space. Tang Hanfeng glanced at Dong Xiaolong, not knowing if he could understand this.

Dong Xiaolong nodded and said, "You continue." ”

"And the discovery of the Netherworld was 400,000 years ago. On that day, the old realm lord sensed the instability of the upper realm, so he patrolled the edge of the upper realm, and finally found a spatial vortex. When the old world lord was about to mend the spatial vortex, a black shadow flew out of the whirlpool, and then the old world lord grabbed him.

It is described that the man was completely black, and his appearance was no different from that of ordinary people, but unfortunately he had no mind. The Old Realm Lord decided to take him into the spatial vortex to find out. In the whirlpool was another dimension, and the whole space was very dim, and only an island could be faintly seen suspended in the space. There was a huge cave in the middle of the island, and the old lord walked into the cave to find a man sitting on a stone chair in the cave. Then the old realm lord found that the man looked exactly like him.

The old realm lord asked the man to know that this space was the opposite space that existed in the upper realm, and that person was transformed by the power of the old realm lord to open up the space of the upper realm on the mountain. For hundreds of thousands of years, he cultivated as an adult and created life in that space, and he released that person just to lure the old realm master in. The Old Realm Lord fought him, but lost to him, and then the Old Realm Lord desperately fled there, sealing the spatial vortex, and was seriously injured himself. That space is the Gloom Realm, and the person in it calls himself the Emperor of Twilight. ”

After Tang Hanfeng's narration, Dong Xiaolong's original worldview was instantly subverted, and in his opinion, the existence of these spaces was not something he could understand. But when he thought of the scene he saw from the jade, all this jade seemed to have told him a long time ago. However, Dong Xiaolong was still a little puzzled, and then asked, "Why have the people of the human world never discovered these spaces?"

Tang Hanfeng continued to explain: "In fact, at the beginning, all the people on this planet lived in the human realm, and the first space that people came into contact with was the fairy realm, because the space world of the fairy realm and the human world were more suitable for cultivation, so in order to pursue a higher cultivation realm, people constantly migrated to the space world of the immortal realm. However, the world of the immortal realm is not as vast as the human realm, and there are people who have cultivated to a high level to enhance the conditions for entering the immortal realm. Because the environment of the human realm could not enable the people here to reach the cultivation strength to enter the immortal realm, the two worlds gradually lost contact, and finally became the current situation. ”

"Therefore, it is rumored that ancient martial arts really existed, and those are the few cultivation methods that exist in this world. ”

"Since the predecessors could find the cultivation method between heaven and earth from scratch, then in the long history that follows, there will always be descendants who can study some cultivation methods. ”

"What kind of world is the underworld you are going to, big brother?"

"The underworld is also an opposing space that exists in the fairy realm, which is also the origin of the name of the space world. The reason why these two spaces are opposite is because the underworld is the other side of the fairy realm. Just like day and night, there are two sides to this space. The space of the underworld is not suitable for human life, but all kinds of strange creatures have been born in it, and most of these creatures are brutal beasts due to the influence of their living environment. ”

After listening, Dong Xiaolong's mind gradually formed a structure, if we talk about layering these spaces, the human world is at the bottom, above this is the fairy realm and the underworld, and above the two domains are the upper realm and the dark realm.

"What is the purpose of the people of the Netherworld coming here?" This is the last question in Dong Xiaolong's heart, he has never understood what is worthy of those people's attention in this ordinary school.

With Dong Xiaolong's inquiring character, Tang Hanfeng knew that sooner or later he would have to tell him, "There should be a relic of the old realm lord here." ”

"The relics of the Old Realm Lord?" Dong Xiaolong was very surprised, the old world lord had already fallen!

Tang Hanfeng saw Dong Xiaolong's doubts, and hurriedly explained, "Just 30,000 years ago, that is, after the disappearance of the Ember predecessors, Emperor Twilight led a large army to attack the Upper Realm. And the disappearance of the people who left the Ember predecessors also made it difficult for the Upper Realm to resist the attack of the Emperor of Twilight. In the end, the old world lord desperately forced the Dusk Emperor and his army back to the dark world, and used his own cultivation to seal the dark world, and then the old world lord fell. ”

"Then since Emperor Twilight can send someone out now, it means that the seal of the old realm lord has been opened?" Dong Xiaolong also thought of this.

"The energy of the seal in the past 30,000 years has also weakened a little, just a hundred years ago, the Emperor of Twilight broke out of the seal alone, but because the old realm lord hit him hard before, his strength did not return to the peak, so I and the current realm lord united the strength of everyone to fight a lose-lose situation. Speaking of which, Tang Hanfeng also hated it very much, Tang Wan almost died because of that battle, but fortunately, Tang Wan is now back with him.

After that, the Emperor of the Darkness retreated to the Dark Realm, and the current Realm Lord united with the people of the Upper Realm to strengthen the seal again. However, the good times did not last long, and it didn't take long for us to discover that the Emperor of Twilight had quietly sent some of his weaker men out of the Nether Realm. Gradually, I discovered that his purpose was to find the relics of the Old Realm Lord, and I traced it all the way here. ”

Dong Xiaolong already understood the whole incident, and finally knew the purpose of Tang Hanfeng and the others. Dong Xiaolong knows the importance of his family to him, but the people of the dark world have infiltrated the human world, even if he wants to live a stable life with his family, if the enemy threatens the people around him, then what should he do?

Thinking of this, Dong Xiaolong's heart made up his mind and said, "Big brother, I won't give up cultivation no matter what." If the enemy threatens my family and friends, and I don't have the strength to protect them, then the security I want will not exist. ”

Tang Hanfeng didn't expect Dong Xiaolong to have such an idea, he stepped forward and patted Dong Xiaolong's shoulder with relief, and said, "Originally, I wanted to persuade you not to meddle in these things anymore, since you understand the importance of strength, then work hard to improve your strength." ”
