Chapter 2 I'll be responsible

It's a world of mystical power, boundless yet close, alive yet dead. In this world, powerful creatures destroy the world, while weak creatures live and die day and night. In this world, everything works according to the rules that have been arranged for a long time, but the variables that occur every moment are so incredible and so chaotic.

In this world, there is a continent called "Ancient Ao", this ancient continent has given birth to countless lives for hundreds of thousands of years. From the birth of the continent to the present, there have been many advanced intelligent beings who have successively obtained the right to rule this continent. In the last two thousand years, the human beings who have mastered the spell have defeated other intelligent beings by virtue of their huge numerical superiority and become the well-deserved overlord of this continent. With the exception of the Extremely Cold Lands in the north and the Fairy Forests in the south, the Terrans have declared their dominion in every corner of the continent.

Of course, not all places are suitable for human habitation, and there are always some areas that are either harsh or too wild to be inaccessible. Among them, the "Central Mountain Range", which runs through the entire ancient Austrian continent from north to south, is rarely set foot on because of its high and steep terrain, dense forests, and rampant monsters.

In the heart of the Central Range, and the highest point in the entire mountain range, the highest peak on the mainland, Kililaya, is located. And in the mist on this Kililaya peak, there are towering and beautiful palaces!

The milky white glazed tiles shone with a peaceful and hazy soft light, piercing the surrounding clouds and mist, scattering this holy fairy light to every corner of the palace. The palace complex located in the clouds and mist, whether it is the indestructible beams and pillars made of the teeth and bones of ancient giant beasts, or the cold brick walls made of ice and snow for thousands of years, or the smart steps made of fairy white jade, everything is pure and white, and there is not a trace of mortal dust.

This is Baixi Immortal Palace, one of the three immortal palaces!

In a fragrant boudoir surrounded by soft white light, a woman in a white long-sleeved skirt sits on a white futon, her eyes closed and her expression calm, as if blending into the vast white.

Although she was dressed in oriental-style clothes and was in an oriental-style complex, the woman had the appearance of a Westerner. In particular, the skin is as flawless as a white wall, and the small straight nose and red lips are all with the characteristics of Westerners. And the long black hair combed into a bun has a strong oriental color. In addition to the stark contrast in appearance, the girlish atmosphere that she can't hide on her body also forms a strong contrast with the dignified dress of the classics.

("East" refers to the east of the Central Mountains, and "West" refers to the west of the Central Mountains)

Since she let go of all worldly affairs, she has been in seclusion in the Baixi Immortal Palace for ten years. In the past ten years, she just sat in her own pavilion day after day, practicing the "Jade Girl Immortal Method". She hadn't even moved a single step for the entire decade. She has entered the Mahayana period, and she has long been free of the troubles of ordinary people, and in this state of "desirelessness", it can be said that she has been like a day for decades, and she will not feel bored and lonely at all.

The longer you enter the state of "no desire", the more the cultivation effect will increase exponentially. Just last year, she managed to reach the Mahayana realm. In another ten years, she has a good chance of reaching a height that is beyond the reach of humans.

When she should have spent the day as plain and tasteless as usual, suddenly at a certain moment, a ripple appeared in the depths of her clear heart, followed by stormy waves!

In her meditation, she felt the power of the Chrono Divine Stone, a terrifying artifact that could destroy the heavens and the earth. The reason why she and her mother came into this world in the first place is also because of it. For the past hundred years, their mother and daughter have been searching for the Chrono Divine Stone, but they have never had a clue.

"It was as if it had come out of nowhere, with no omen or trace. It has disappeared for a hundred years, why did it suddenly appear?What happened?" Her immortal body slowly rose in the clouds, and without hesitation, she ended the state of "desirelessness" that had lasted for ten years. For her, terminating her cultivation was an inevitable choice, and since she had decided to leave the world, there was no point in having strong strength. If she wants to re-enter the world, she must also end this endless cultivation.

She glanced in the direction of the west, and said in her heart, "The place where the Divine Stone is located seems to be the place where the three of us first came a hundred years ago. I must get the Divine Stone as soon as possible, and I must not let it fall into the hands of those with ill intentions. ”

Her delicate body fluttered, passed through the white cedar door opened by the fairy power, and turned into a white light and flew into the sky.

Under one of the eaves of the Baixi Immortal Palace, two white-clothed women looked up at the white light flying out of the distant room, their eyes full of surprise and curiosity.

"Master, why did Uncle Gao come out? Where is she going? Do you want to tell the palace master about her old man?" The girl in white named Bai Xueli looked delicate and cute, she couldn't take her eyes off the white light that disappeared into the sea of clouds, and the admiration in her eyes was overflowing.

(Note: In this article, "Shizu" refers to Master's Master, and "Gao Shizu" refers to Master's Master's Master's Master's Master.) )

In the ancient continent where spells are prevalent, there are only a handful of immortal magicians, and many people have not even heard of the so-called "immortal arts". Even in the Immortal Palace, there are only a few people who can master immortal arts. Therefore, Bai Xueli, as the eighteenth generation disciple, admires the master who has mastered the powerful immortal art very much.

The middle-aged woman beside Bai Xueli is named Yun Rou, who is the sixteenth generation disciple of Bai Xi Immortal Palace and the ancestor of Bai Xueli. She looked at the sky in the distance, shook her head, and said, "There is no need to report it, it is impossible for my master not to notice such a big movement." Sydney, you stay here, I have to take a look. ”

After she finished speaking, she used her mana, recited the spell, and cast the spell "Wind Soaring Technique", and then the whole person rose to a high place in the soft wind.

At this time, Bai Fengyue, the palace master of Baixi Immortal Palace, had already come to her uncle's boudoir. The cultivation of immortal arts can delay the aging of her face, and she looks like she is thirty or forty years old, but her real age is eighty-five years old. She had made sure that there was no sign of a fight in the room, and that the one who flew out was indeed her uncle.

"Uncle Shi, where are you going?" Bai Fengyue said in her heart, her face solemn. Her uncle finally stopped cultivating, something big must have happened.

Just as the white clothes crossed the sky, some of the top powerhouses in the Ancient Ao Continent also sensed that there were heavenly masters who were exerting their strength with all their might. But they didn't know who the man was or what it was for.

At the same time, in the western part of the continent, in the magnificent Starry Sky Temple of the Holy Starlight City, Starry God Pope Gregory was sitting on the Starry Sky Throne, also thinking about this question.

He is nearly 100 years old, with a straight waist, a ruddy complexion, and a gleam in his eyes that does not match his age. This eighty-year-old man has been sitting in the Pope's seat for thirty years, and in the twenty years since the Goddess of the Stars disappeared, he has been the supreme leader of the Cult of the Stars.

"Who is this master?Why are you here?Has the Starry Sky Divine Sect offended any heaven-level master over the years?" he thought about it for a long time, but after all, there was still no result. Then he moved his gaze to Hezhestus, who was standing respectfully in front of him.

This Capricorn gold god warrior is wearing a heavy gold god robe, and he has reached middle age, his face is emaciated, and under those furrowed eyebrows, a pair of small eyes condense a serious gaze. His lips are tightly closed, giving the impression of not smiling.

"A big man has come to our sacred realm, and the people of the Star Intelligence Department have determined the approximate location of that master, Yunxing City, the capital of the Cloud Star Country. Although the Gregorian Pope's tone was calm, he was wearing a golden and red royal robe, and his gestures exuded a sense of majesty, "I need you to go there, in case of any emergency, I can rest assured that you are here." ”

"Lord Pope, how did this Celestial-level master come to our land with such a big battle and exert his strength to travel thousands of miles to our land?" The strict Hezhenstos was also very curious about the Celestial Rank masters he might encounter.

"I don't know, but one thing is for sure, this man must be in a hurry. In fact, this kind of thing shouldn't be handled by you, it's just that the masters of the Starry Sky Wizard Regiment have tasks on their bodies, so they can only work hard for you. ”

Gregory didn't tell the truth, he didn't want his starry sky mage group to suffer losses, so he sent the god warriors. Because the former is loyal to Pope Gregory, while the latter is loyal to the goddess of the stars, Arla.

Among the divine warriors, Hezhestus is impeccable in both strength and experience, and it is indeed reassuring to deal with complex problems.

However, there was another reason why Gregory sent him to spy on the mysterious master. This god-warrior loyal to the goddess was once severely injured by the quasi-heavenly master Casillos Lora in a desperate battle in the "Three Years War", and he was the only one who survived that battle. Therefore, he who knows the terrible strength of the heavenly master will definitely be cautious and not cause more trouble.

"The goddess of the stars is above, I, Hezhestus, will never allow anyone to be presumptuous in the kingdom of the goddess of the stars, and it is my duty to protect the devout believers!" Hezhestus's expression was resolute, and his gaze was very determined.

Gregory nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very well, remember, your task is to monitor. As long as that person doesn't do anything too much, you don't have to worry about him. ”

"I understand, please rest assured, Your Holiness. ”

At this moment, the entire Cloud Star Country, from top to bottom, didn't know that there would be a divine warrior coming, let alone that a heaven-level master had set foot on this land.

And Ke Zhenxi, the initiator of these shocks, was walking on the streets of Cloud Star City blankly, he was tightly tightening his trouser belt, his eyes were full of hunger, and he was already at a loss.

"What the hell is this place? I was on the side of the road before, why did I get here all of a sudden? That woman is so evil, I don't know where Duo'er will be now. Ke Zhenxi didn't understand what was going on at all, why did he suddenly appear in this hellish place, these things were completely beyond his knowledge.

Judging from the knowledge he has, this should be in Europe or the Americas, because the people here are all Caucasian, and the clothes they wear are between medieval style and modern style.

After this day's observations, he found that people here only use coins when they buy things, gold, silver, copper and iron, and he has the impression that there is no country in Europe or America that only uses coins, and there is no such country in the whole world.

There are no high-rise buildings here, and four- and five-story buildings are already considered high. But what amazed him was that over the city square, there was a huge round clock.

"How could it be suspended in the air? It must be some kind of high-tech illusion, the big clock that shimmered blue was just a projection. He has his own understanding of this novelty.

In the beginning, he was still asking for help, he wanted to go back to the original place, and he couldn't leave his daughter there alone. But after a day of wandering, because of the language barrier, he was dressed like a beggar, and no one wanted to deal with him. At this moment, he was already hungry, but out of a sense of duty to his daughter, he still insisted on searching everywhere, trying to find the police station in this country for help.

Suddenly, the smell of wheat came to his nose, arousing the hunger he had managed to suppress. His gaze instantly locked on the bakery next to him, and he felt like he was enchanted, unable to move a single step.

Several times he tried to pick up the baguettes on the shelves and run, but the only sanity he had left took control of his body again and again. Now he is so weak that he will definitely not be able to run away after grabbing the bread.

Thinking so, he reached into his pocket and felt for the fruit knife, remembering what he had robbed a few hours earlier. He shook his head, in this strange place, he was not stupid enough to rob with a knife in public. He put his hand into another pocket, grabbed the fist-sized ruby, and decided to hurry to the jewelry store and exchange some money, such a good gem must be exchanged for a lot of money. With money, you can buy food, and only after eating can you have the strength to find your daughter.

Just as he took a step to continue his struggle for survival, he suddenly noticed that everything around him had become blurred, and there was a hazy fog everywhere. The only thing that was clear was the woman in white standing in front of him at some point.
