Chapter 2: The Demon Old Man
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ears, and it was close at hand, Zhang Bairen couldn't help but be startled, immediately jumped away, and then turned his head to look. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the voice was in his ears, the person who spoke was at the door of the small bamboo house a few meters away.
It was an unkempt old man, the old man was wrapped in a black robe, and his long white hair did not cover his face, it was a fleshy face, as if there were only bones and no flesh!
The old man was smiling at Zhang Bairen, at least Zhang Bairen felt that the old man was smiling at him. However, the smile was too penetrating, and Zhang Bairen felt goosebumps.
"You can call me the Demon Old Man, don't doubt it, this is the space of your head! These are the Demon Trees!" the old man laughed.
This was originally a very absurd thing, but Zhang Bairen watched a lot of movies in his previous life, and even more absurd things have been watched, so it's not strange.
Zhang Bairen frowned and said: "I'm not interested in who you are, I'm not interested in where this is, I just want to know, how can I live!"
He hadn't forgotten that he was in danger right now.
There are so many people outside who want him to die, the people of the Li family want him to die, the one-eyed wolf on the battle stage wants to kill him, and the audience also wants to see him killed!
And he didn't even reach the foundation, but the one-eyed wolf was already a fourfold foundation, if there was no accident, the battle would be dead!
The demon old man obviously didn't expect Zhang Bairen to be so direct, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange about his appearance.
"It's easy to help you survive, and it's my job. The demon old man's eyes flashed, and he said: "I'll make a deal with you, I will teach you peerless exercises, and I will help you become the number one in the world, but you have to promise me one condition!"
Become the best in the world!
In the eyes of the demon elder, this is something that no one can refuse, because it is too tempting.
Zhang Bairen didn't refuse, but he said: "I want to know what your conditions are, if you want me to die at that time, what will I do?"
A trace of madness flashed in the demon old man's eyes, and he said: "After you become the number one in the world, you will probably be able to master this space, I want you to let me out then, I'm fed up here!"
Zhang Bairen was stunned for a moment, and then said: "If I can do it, I will definitely do it, I swear to this divine thunder!"
Zhang Bairen pointed to the thunder hovering above the fruit tree and said solemnly.
The demon old man was stunned for a moment and said, "You don't think about it?"
Zhang Bairen said: "What is there to consider? Don't you really want to leave here? And this is very fair, and even I took a big advantage." ”
The demon old man was silent, and his eyes, which had not shed tears for I don't know how many years, became a little moist.
He was originally a legendary figure in the Tianyan Continent, but he inexplicably entered this space and experienced an unknown number of reincarnations, just to find a host who could release him!
After the previous hosts knew of his existence, they did everything they could to squeeze him. But no one has ever succeeded in reaching the number one in the world, and even he himself sometimes wonders if the Tianyan Continent really has the number one in the world?
Zhang Bairen was actually not the host he was looking for, and he was also attached here inexplicably. But he knows his mission, to train the host to be the best in the world, so that he can leave!
"Alright, I've promised you. Zhang Bairen never forgot his current situation, and said, "You should tell me how to live, right?"
The demon old man retracted his mind and said with a strange smile: "It's very simple, you can become stronger!"
Zhang Bairen rolled his eyes and said, "I know that it's okay to become stronger, but the point is that I don't have time now, and my own talent is also limited, so I can't become stronger." Let's get through the current difficulties!"
Talent, that's a really scary thing.
Some people are talented and can become masters at once, while some people are poorly talented, like him, a young man who is now eighteen years old, but he hasn't even built a foundation!
Martial arts cultivation is divided from low to high: foundation building realm, innate realm, condensation realm, dharma body realm, three flower realm, and five qi realm. A higher level is not something that Zhang Bairen can know at present, he only knows that the top ten heroes today are the five qi realms, and even if there are more powerful ones above, he doesn't know.
Not to mention anything else, today's Zhang Bairen is not even a grassroots level. And if you want to become a warrior, the most basic requirement is to build a foundation.
He Zhang Bairen was favored by the Li family with his ruthless sutra and brute strength, and then was arranged in this gladiatorial arena, at first he was able to fight with the people who built the first two layers, and now he had to wait for death against the one-eyed wolf who built the foundation fourfold.
The demon old man seemed to see Zhang Bairen's thoughts, and said with a strange smile: "Are you resentful that your talent is not strong enough? Or do you feel that you don't have the time and ability to become stronger?"
Zhang Bairen said expressionlessly: "All of them!"
The old demon man entered the small bamboo house, and came out again after a while, but he was holding a thick book in his hands.
"What is this?"
"Demon Codex! A set of mental methods that can change your fate!"
"Didn't I say I didn't have time to cultivate?"
"It doesn't need to be cultivated, you can do it directly. ”
Zhang Bairen was dumbfounded, there were still exercises that he could learn directly without cultivating? It was the first time he had heard of it.
Even if it was the Li family's martial arts cheat, Hei Xuangong, the Li family's strongest genius, Master Li, it took a month to comprehend.
"Come, eat it!" The old demon man handed the Demon Codex to Zhang Bairen's hand.
Zhang Bairen thought that he had heard it wrong, and couldn't help asking, "Eat?"
The demon old man smiled, "That's right, just eat it! Only in this way can you understand it." ”
Zhang Bairen frowned, although he was a little reluctant, but in order to survive, he still did it. However, he found that the Demon Codex was not as unpalatable as ordinary books, it was like eating a fruit!
After three or two bites, he finished eating.
After eating, he felt that the heavens and the earth had changed dramatically, and this dark space seemed to be lit up all at once.
I don't know why, Zhang Bairen himself knew that he should sit down cross-legged and practice, and his body was integrated, as if how to practice the Demon Codex had already been memorized.
Without foundation building, there would be no internal force, and Zhang Bairen, who was sitting cross-legged, would not be able to run the exercises at all. And his state at this time needs him to run.
Seeing this, the demon old man stretched out his hand to grab it, and the hovering lightning in the air was grabbed by him, and then thrown onto Zhang Bairen's body.
"Since you're coming with him, help him!"
