Yue Chen fled from this unpredictable mountain in a panic.

When Edgeworth left, he didn't have time to discern the direction, but just flew towards another mountain peak by feeling. The mountain behind him was very silent, and the surrounding area of the mountain was so quiet that even the sound of the wind in his ears as he flew quickly disappeared.

When Yue Chen came to the mountain peak in front of him, the mountain peak he had just left was already shining red, reflecting the red sky.

As I looked closely, the blood began to flow down the mountain, without any sound and without seeping into the earth. Everywhere he went, everything melted into the boiling blood. Looking in the direction of the blood flowing, Yue Chen was even more surprised.

On the beach below the peak, there were strange-looking people standing densely, all looking at the mountain with reverence. No one spoke, even the breath seemed to be holding its breath, and the eyes that glowed with a different color did not move.

The blood that flowed from the mountain peaks gradually became a river, flowing in the direction where the crowd stood. When the blood was still more than ten feet away from the crowd, everyone knelt neatly, put their hands together, closed their eyes, and chanted words in their mouths. It is like praying for the arrival of the gods, and it is like an ancient sacrificial ritual.

Yue Chen said in his heart: "I didn't expect me to be able to see so far! It's just that what is this strange way doing? Can't they see this strange blood with demonic devouring power? Aren't they waiting for death?"

Despite this, these people really seem to have their souls snatched away, quietly waiting for the nectar to come. Soon, the blood flowing from the mountain began to drown the crowd, and the people who passed by were like corpses on the mountain and merged into the demonic blood. Once the blood flows into the sea, it seems to go straight to the bottom of the sea, and does not spread out on the surface of the sea.

And they are in the blood, there is no pain, no wailing, not even any expression, the scene of seeing death as home, is more like going to heaven than facing death. It is the blessings of heaven and fortune, not pain and parting. Yue Chen felt a cold sweat on his back, all of this was caused by his own hands, if he didn't rely on the dragon ants and didn't take the box, there would be no such disaster.

I also know very well that pushing all these sins on the earth dragon ants is obviously evading responsibility, and it is not the work of the big husband. But in front of him, Yue Chen had no action, and could only watch this miserable scene.

In just one hour, most of the people kneeling by the beach disappeared. And where the blood flowed and the crowd disappeared, there was a man who was unharmed, and even the evil blood bypassed him and flowed aside.

The range of blood flowed gradually became fixed, and the people who had not been swallowed slowly got up and bowed respectfully to someone. The person who was surrounded by the river of blood slowly got up, and seeing that the figure was obviously a teenager, he also looked around blankly, as if he was looking for a way out.

Suddenly, a strange roar was heard, and a small bird the size of a fist rushed down from the air, grabbed the boy with both claws, and flew into the living crowd. The atmosphere of the crowd suddenly became lively, and the teenager was surrounded as if worshipping a god. The boy glanced deeply into the sea, then drowned in the crowd and disappeared.

Yue Chen said in his heart: "What I saw today is even more appalling and unbelievable than the stories I have seen before. And this kind of ancient sacrifice and selection of gods seems to have similar alien races on the Hongmeng Continent. However, the records in the ancient books are already very vague, and it is impossible to distinguish the true from the false, but I saw this scene with my own eyes, and the shock in my heart can be imagined. ”

Looking at the departing crowd, Yue Chen let out a sigh of relief, and wanted to see what was going on on that mountain. After his body relaxed a little, he just glanced around casually, and suddenly let out an "ah" and looked at an old man behind him in a daze.

The old man stood floating in the air, like an immortal descending to earth, his body was covered with layers of green energy, holding a divine scepter, and on the top of the divine scepter was a blue shining divine bead shaped like a human heart. His appearance is no different from which crowds, but he is dressed in white, his hair, eyebrows, and beard are all white, and his eyebrows reveal a kind majesty. It doesn't feel that weird. Yue Chen didn't know what to do, he just looked at him quietly, and said in his heart: "I don't understand what these people say, what should I do?"

However, a miracle happened, and the old man actually asked in the language of the Hongmeng Continent, "Where are you from?"

Yue Chen was stunned, then turned to the old man, and replied respectfully: "If you go back to the old immortal, the junior is from the Hongmeng Continent!"

The old man looked a little surprised, but shook his head again, and said, "Today's matter is really the will of heaven. The wooden box in your hand has never been picked up, but you have done it, which means that you have the power to suppress the power of the wooden box, but this power is still sleeping, you can't feel it, and the old man can't detect it. Since you and I have met, it is fate, come with me!"

Yue Chen said "oh", his brain forgot to think, and walked straight to the old man.

The two of them came to a temple one after the other. When he entered the temple, Yue Chen realized that he didn't know how he entered the temple, and he didn't even see where the door of the temple was. I just followed in a daze. There was nothing in the temple except two wooden chairs.

The old man raised his hand and motioned to sit down, and after the two of them sat down, the old man asked, "Young man, first tell me about the Hongmeng Continent that you know, try to be as detailed as possible, and be as brief as possible." ”

Yue Chen said: "I don't know what the old fairy wants the younger generation to say?"

"Whatever you know, just tell me briefly. The old man doesn't have time to listen to you slowly make it up!"

Yue Chen looked interested, and after sorting out his thoughts a little, he told the Hongmeng Continent he knew one by one. Only when talking about the newly established Antiy Chamber of Commerce recently, the old man said "hmm", but did not speak.

It wasn't until he finished speaking within half an hour that the old man said, "The Hongmeng Continent in your mouth is the land of this little projectile?"

Yue Chen was taken aback, and said in his heart: "The Hongmeng Continent is divided into nine continents, and the nine continents have their own jurisdiction over Kyushu, and the territory is extremely vast. Why did this old man say that?" After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Don't hide it from the old immortals, the Hongmeng Continent is indeed laid out like this. ”

The old man smiled "haha" and said, "How do you know, how many continents are there in the earth-carrying world?"

"The younger generation learned from the ancient books that there were six pieces. But no one on the Hongmeng Continent has ever found the existence of the other five pieces. Therefore, today's human race probably regards the Hongmeng Continent as the only continent. ”

"Poor and pitiful!" the old man said again and again with disdain, "This little land of the Hongmeng Continent is inhabited by the weakest people, and the demon beasts are also slaughtered like sheep. Poor ......!" After a pause, he asked, "What is the origin of the Antiy Chamber of Commerce you are talking about, and do you know who founded it?"

"The juniors don't know!" Yue Chen replied dryly: "As far as the juniors know, it was founded by the twelve living immortals on the Hongmeng Continent who are known as the 'Three Immortals, Four Elders, and Five Honors', and now, the Antiy Chamber of Commerce has controlled the circulation of spiritual materials and hyun crystals on the entire Hongmeng Continent. The power is monstrous, and no one dares to provoke it. ”

"Bah! a few shameless old things, it's so shameless!" The old man suddenly scolded, and the frightened Yue Chen almost jumped up, and the old man continued: "What three immortals, four old and five venerables, why do you say they are so shameless?"

Yue Chen forcibly swallowed his saliva and asked softly, "Old Immortal, do you know them?"

The old man glared at him, and said, "Do you know the people you grew up with?" After finishing speaking, he said "Hmm" and asked, "Have you seen them?"

Yue Chen shook his head and said, "I've only seen a person named 'Seventh Master'! I heard that eight hundred years ago, his old man personally subdued a holy fire dragon, which shocked the Hongmeng Continent. The latter sentence was Yue Chen's casual remarks, intended to test the old man. so that he can know how powerful the three immortals, the four elders and the five venerables are.

But who knows, the old man's eyes widened, and he scolded even more, and snorted: "This old slippery head, why is his skin getting thicker and thicker? That holy fire dragon is something he can subdue? Old man, I ...... it! Old Seven, this stinky slippery head, he has a lot of ghost eyes." ”

Yue Chen smiled bitterly in his heart, he really didn't know how such a good-looking person could know people on the Hongmeng Continent, and they had grown up together since childhood.

The old man scolded for a long time before he stopped, pulled his face, and asked inexplicably, "Is the stinky slippery head accepting apprentices?"

"Hey, old immortal, how do you know about this?" Yue Chen was also surprised, and asked cautiously: "Old immortal, what is the relationship between you and this seventh master?"

"Did the stinky slippery head give you something?" The old man ignored Yue Chen's question, and said: "As a stinky slippery person, you are from Sanqingmen, he should give you a little greeting gift." ”

"As the old fairy expected, the old fairy gave me three wooden tablets with a picture engraved on them. The younger generation is stupid and dull, and he can't understand it thoroughly!" Yue Chen paused and continued: "It's just that all the senior brothers present at that time received the same reward. By the way, Yue Chen also told him about the fire dragon and red phoenix.

"A little fireworm can become a fire dragon?" said the old man disdainfully, "can this little fireworm make you happy like that?" and the little bird, alas!"

Yue Chen didn't know how to answer, so he had to look at the old man quietly and listen to what he said.

The old man changed the topic and asked, "What is the carved thing on the wooden plaque he gave you, you can draw a few random things on the ground." ”

Yue Chen nodded, didn't speak, just squatted down and drew with his fingers.

The first one had just been painted with three strokes, and the old man said, "The Demon Seal Descends the Dragon Palm! Well, this one is not bad!

The second one was painted with two strokes, and the old man said: "Chengtian Six Vein Fingers! Then the next one must be Sumeru's Wuxiang Fist." Hmm! It seems that the stinky slippery head values you very much and has passed on the Qiankun Three Absolute Styles to you. In this way, his stinky apprentice will no longer be able to learn these deceitful little tricks. You say that this man is not slippery, and he will pass you some little tricks to fool you, which is really hateful. ”

The old man thought about it, but still asked without answering the topic: "Stinky boy, do you have a master?"

Yue Chen shook his head and told him about his situation in Chengming Sect.

The old man looked at Yue Chen suspiciously, shook his head, and said, "Young man, don't talk big or lie! You kid, can you refine talismans? I don't think so? It's almost the same as a ghost talisman! In this way, you can show me all the runes you know." If you're bragging, get out of the way at once!"

Yue Chen spread his hands and signaled that he did not bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone. The old man waved his hand lightly, and there was an extra table in front of Yue Chen, with a number of cinnabar and purple rune paper. Yue Chen calmed down for a moment, and then drew the runes he knew.

The old man picked it up and looked at it, shook his head and said, "Although you have indeed learned this rune seriously and the drawing is quite interesting, it is too far and too far away." Only the following four runes are considered entry-level, but they are far from enough, far from enough!"

The old man slowly put down the green rune paper in his hand and muttered: "However, it will be difficult to meet someone like him again in the future!" frowned, and said: "The old man will accompany you for three hours, and draw the runes on this animal skin. Otherwise, it is useless to say more. As he spoke, he casually threw over a nine-foot-long and wide animal skin.

Yue Chen opened it and looked at it, his gaze was suddenly dull, and many incomplete runes suddenly jumped out of his mind. These originally mutilated runes have appeared in this animal skin one by one!

The old man coughed deliberately, secretly used his mana to wake Yue Chen up, pointed at the animal skin and said, "Try to be as fast as possible, you can draw as much as you can in three hours! ”

Yue Chen promised, forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and began to paint in earnest. The first dozens of runes are drawn very slowly, but the further you go, the faster you go. Yue Chen felt that he was in a kind of illusion, and his body was not at his own control at all, but was dominated by an inexplicable force.

Two and a half hours later, Yue Chen had already drawn a thousand and one runes, took a long breath, and slowly put down the pen in his hand. looked at the old man, but the old man closed his eyes and ignored Yue Chen on the side. Yue Chen didn't dare to speak.

After a long time, the old man asked, "What's your name?"

"Yue Chen!"

"Well, Yue Chen, come here!" the old man said, "Do you think I'm worthy of being your master?"

Yue Chen was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied: "The old immortal is a master in the world, I am just a cloth cloth, how dare I say such a thing as whether I am worthy or not." ”

"That's fine! You can now kowtow to me nine times, which is considered an apprenticeship. I think, at my age, I can still stand your kneeling!"

Yue Chen didn't rush to bow down, and said respectfully: "The younger generation is a disciple of the Chengming Sect, and he is also the twenty-first disciple of the Fu Zheng lineage, so he should abide by the edict of the ancestor of the Kai Sect! What's more, how noble the identity of the old immortal is, how can I, the identity of an ant, be worshiped under the old immortal. ”

The old man slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were full of fairy light, and he shook his head and said: "Back then, the mistakes made by the little evil animals made them pay off the debts of future generations. Twenty lives, it's time to be enough. Don't worry, the old man can still do it, the owner of the little evil animal. ”

Yue Chen looked at the old man in front of him coldly, and said in his heart: "Our founding patriarch exists like a god in the minds of the disciples of the Chengming Sect, why is this old man insulting the patriarch so much!"

The old man waved his hand lightly and said, "What, you are uncomfortable after scolding your patriarch?" Forget it, it's all in the past, and it doesn't mean anything if the old man investigates it carefully." However, if you were to learn from me, I could tell you some stories that you would love to know. As for what is my relationship with your founding patriarch, don't ask again, the old man doesn't want to mention the past! In short, what the old man tells you will be true. ”

Yue Chen thought about it, and felt that the old immortal in front of him was serious, and he scolded the patriarch of the Kai faction, he must know the inner reason. Moreover, in the past, when Hao Jing and Hao Xian, two great real people, talked about the patriarch of the school, they also had words like "selfish". It can be seen that the older generation knows more or less hidden things. Coupled with the secrets of Yuqing's audience, the secrets of the three immortals, the four elders and the five venerables, Yue Chen could no longer suppress the curiosity in his heart. Respectfully bowed to the teacher.

The old man smiled and said, "Although you and I are masters and apprentices, we only have three days. ”
