Chapter 2: Alienation

"Immortal Master, I don't know what you're talking about. But think about me, a mortal child, where can I help the immortal master. Besides, I don't have a chance to cultivate at all, now I'm just going to the town in front of me to join my relatives so that I can find something to eat!, or the immortal master will wait for me to go to the town in front to find someone to come and help you!" Xiao Ling thought for a while and said, everyone calls a cultivator an immortal master.

"Little one, don't worry about anything. You wouldn't have survived here without that. Don't worry, although that thing is a strange thing, it seems that it has some wisdom now, and since it recognizes you, it is impossible for others to force it. Even if it's strong, it will protect you. Now there is no one in the world who can take it from you. Actually, the reason why I want to confirm that the thing is on you is because only after you have that thing can you help me return to the upper realm and return to my true body. The old voice said, and there seemed to be some inexplicable meaning in those starry eyes.

Xiao Ling saw a trace of inexplicable meaning in the old man's eyes, but he didn't want to deny that he had obtained a strange thing from the sky, after all, it was impossible for ordinary people to survive this natural disaster. Besides, although the old man can't move now, the old man gives him the feeling that he can still kill him at any time. So Xiao Ling thought for a while before saying, "Immortal Master, I can help you, but only within my ability." I can only try my best to help you if you can return to the upper realm in the future, and there is no time limit. And I want to know what the hell is that thing you're talking about?"

"No problem! Everything will be done as you say! Actually, I want your help very simply, soon I will fall into a deep sleep, and when I am asleep, I will put my remaining soul into the soul bead to repair the soul bead, you have to wear the soul bead on my body, because I will sleep for a long time, not to mention nearly a thousand years, and if the soul bead is not popular, it will die in more than a hundred years. Only popularity can maintain the vitality of the soul beads. In addition, the soul nourishing bead can only partially repair the original soul, and in the future, I will need you to find some heaven and earth elixirs and materials to help me repair the original soul. Of course I'll tell you what you need and how to do it. In the future, you will help me return to the upper realm, help me reforge my body, and find me something that will help protect me from the Heavenly Tribulation. The reward for you is that I will give you some information and cultivation experience, which can help you reach the Divine Infant Realm. In addition, I have a space treasure Qiankun Bead in my hand, which contains a large number of exercises that I have collected for half my life, some heavenly and earthly treasures, and some treasures. However, the Qiankun Bead should be placed in your body to be warmed, and it will not be able to open until you reach the Dan Realm. As for whether you will be able to reach the upper realm in the future, although your qualifications are good, they are still a lot worse, and if you don't have my help, it can only be said that it will be difficult. Of course, when I wake up and give you a guide or two, it will be much easier to ascend. As for what the hell you're talking about, that's a bit of a bummer for me. Because I can't tell you the specifics, but I can talk to you while I still have time, but these things are still a little far away for you!" the old man was a little excited when he heard Xiao Ling's promise.

"Oh! Thank you Immortal Master then. However, the elixir and other things you are looking for to repair the soul must be something against the sky, and I can only try to find it in the future. In addition, I also asked the immortal master and the kid to talk a lot about cultivation, so as to open the kid's eyes. The kid's name is Xiao Ling, and the immortal master can directly call the kid's name. ”

"Xiao Ling, the name is good. But you're a little slippery. It is equivalent to promising nothing. But I don't have much time to wait. If you want to know about that thing, I can tell you about it. It's been a long time coming. In addition, the old man's name is Chenli, and it will be good to call me Chenli senior in the future. ”

"Yes! Chen is leaving the senior!" Xiao Ling agreed after a little thought.

"In fact, at this time, we have to start from more than two million years ago, when there was a rebellion in the fairy world, and the war caused all the places in the fairy world, and countless powerful people were killed in the war. The reason for this is because of the things on your body, which are said to make people truly live with heaven and earth. Because of the existence of the Heavenly Tribulation, the original people of the Immortal Realm could not live forever, and it is said that the thing on your body can allow immortal cultivators to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation, so there are countless people competing for it. But in the end, no one was able to get it. In the immortal realm, no matter how great the cultivator's ability to reach the heavens is, he cannot live with the heavens and the earth, and at most he can only live for a few more years, and at most millions of years will fall under various heavenly tribulations. Later, countless powerful people in the upper realm were looking for a way to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation and live with heaven and earth. It wasn't until later that someone discovered a magical place in the void, that place had a very strong chaotic origin qi, although the place was only more than a thousand miles large. It is known as the Land of Origin. Countless treasures are born inside, and time inside is in a state of complete stopping. However, there are very few people who can enter it, and it is not possible to enter it if you are high, and it takes some chance. And every time it is opened, it will take several years, and once the time passes, all the people will be excluded from this place. Until a million years from now, this place will be opened again, but it will be opened again in another place. ”

"The Heavenly Tribulation Time of the Mighty Men of the Upper Realm was originally once in 100,000 years, but the Heavenly Tribulation Time of all those who came out of the Origin Land would be extended to once in 200,000 years, and those who came out of it were able to bring out one or several strange things, and these strange things were refined with some materials to reach the top of the Divine Tribulation, whether it was used as an attack or to resist the Heavenly Tribulation, it was a unique treasure in the world. The old man paused for a moment and continued, so every time the Origin Land is opened, countless people will go, and those who can't get in are trying to wait for the people inside to come out or buy or grab the strange things brought out by the people inside. Every time it is opened, it is a time of chaos in the upper realm. Often, for the sake of a strange thing, countless people who have attained the great cultivation of the Tao have died. Two million years ago, a strange thing appeared in the Land of Origin, and as soon as this strange thing appeared, it devoured all the people who entered here, and this strange thing was not a physical body. Later, after this thing broke out of the void from the Origin Land, someone found that this thing gathered a very strong chaotic origin qi. If someone can obtain and refine it, they will achieve immortality and truly live with heaven and earth. The news has spread, and countless people have flocked to it, starting a war that has lasted for more than 100,000 years. This war has affected countless upper and lower realms. The number of cultivators who fell for this reason was hundreds of billions of people, and dozens of the upper realms and countless lower realms were shattered into pieces. ”

"Senior Chenli, what is this strange thing called, there should be something special!" Xiao Ling asked.

"Actually, we don't know what this thing was originally, but everyone calls it spirit. Because it is capable of devouring all things, some people call it Spirit Devouring. As for the special thing, it is that with it, you can find the place of origin again. Because after the war in the upper realm, the Origin Land disappeared and was never opened again, and countless cultivators were looking for this Origin Land. In addition, if you can refine it, maybe you will truly live with heaven and earth. However, it is not known whether this is true or not. But you little guy is really lucky, you actually got it, it seems that this spirit is really wise. Tsk, that's amazing. There was some unwillingness and excitement in Chenli's words.

"Oh, but the kid still doesn't understand, there are so many powerful people in the upper realm, can't he catch this so-called spirit swallowing?And after so many years, how can the spirit swallowing come to the lower realm?And how can it run into my body?" Xiao Ling didn't think much of what Chen Li said, and he also felt that there was some obscurity in Chen Li's words.

"Hehe, Xiao Ling boy, you're not a big person, but you're a ghost. Luckily, I'll talk to you a lot. In fact, it's not that the powerful people in the upper realm don't catch it, but they don't dare to catch it. This Spirit Devourer has been chased by everyone in the upper realm for more than 100,000 years, devouring more than ten interfaces and countless powerful people with divine powers. Later, all the powerful people of the upper realm reached a consensus: no one is allowed to capture or refine the Spirit Devourer. Because the price paid to capture the Spirit Devourer is too great, and once the Spirit Devourer is captured or refined, the Soul Devourer will become the first person in the cultivation realm, and no one can shake its status. At that time, this person will turn over the clouds and rain his hands, and decide the life and death of countless cultivators and the survival of countless interfaces at any time! How can those cultivators in the upper realm tolerate such a thing? However, in the end, dozens of powerful people condensed a mark and left it on the Spirit Devouring Realm, as long as the Spirit Devouring was obtained by someone in the Upper Realm, he would know the Dao. However, this sigil can only confirm the exact location of the Devourer while it is in the Upper Realm. I don't know what kind of spirit swallowing will run to the lower realm, but now that you get it, the mark will disappear, and the upper realm can only know that the road is in the lower realm, but the specific interface cannot be confirmed. It is estimated that the current upper realm has become a mess. It will take at least 10,000 years to confirm the specific interface, so it will be extremely difficult to ascend to the upper realm within 10,000 years from now. And if you ascend to the upper realm within 10,000 years, you will definitely be severely reinstated. Once you find the Spirit Devourer, then it will be a luxury for you to even die!But as long as you help me, I can help you ascend to the upper realm without being discovered by anyone in your body. After all, although the Spirit Devouring Spirit is now obtained by you, if you want to refine it, you can only do it by going to the upper realm with some heavenly and earthly treasures. And if you can't ascend to the upper realm within 10,000 years, you will stay in the lower realm forever, because the age of the ascended person cannot exceed 10,000 years. And if you stay in the Nether Realm, even if the Spirit Devouring can help you survive many heavenly tribulations, the people of the Upper Realm will definitely find you in ten thousand years. At that time, you will be completely unable to fight against the people of the upper realm, and you will only have to fall in the end. So, asking you to help me now is actually helping yourself. You and I are just making a two-way deal. If you want to get benefits, of course you have to pay for it. Speaking of the most dear, Chenli's voice was a little cold.

"Thank you Chenli seniors for solving the kid's doubts. The kid will definitely try his best to help the seniors achieve their wishes. In the future, I will teach the boy more from my seniors!, but I also hope that my seniors will introduce the lower realm and things related to cultivation to the boy, so that the boy can understand more about the Tao and avoid detours for the future cultivation of the Dao!" Xiao Ling didn't seem to notice the coldness in Chen Li's words, and said quite respectfully.

In fact, the upper realm and the lower realm are basically the same, but the essence qi of heaven and earth is countless times richer than that of the lower realm, and the heavenly and earth treasures of the upper realm are far from being comparable to the lower realm. The number of interfaces currently found in the upper realm is only tens of thousands. However, once you can cultivate to the Venerable, you will have a way to find the interface in the void, but finding the interface in the void requires a large amount of chaotic origin qi. In general, the new interface has countless rare treasures, far from being comparable to the current known interfaces. However, these interfaces are undeveloped, and there are countless powerful ancient beasts in them, these ancient beasts are unable to open the spiritual intelligence, and some ancient beasts are not even sure to deal with the Venerable. Therefore, many powerful people would rather open up their own private space, so that although the harvest is small, there is not much danger, and there is no need to waste the Chaos Origin Qi. Of course, some powerful people feel that they can't survive the future catastrophe, and they will fight to find a new interface, hoping to find something beneficial and tribulation. ”

"Then senior, what is your level in the Upper Realm, how many Heavenly Tribulations have you already passed, how can you appear in this Lower Realm, and how can you appear here?" Xiao Ling asked after thinking for a while.

"I, I've survived more than ten tribulations in the Upper Realm. As for my specific strength in the Upper Realm, it is not something that you can access now, and you will know the Dao when you have the opportunity in the future. How did it get here? It's actually quite simple, it's that I left a dark mark on the Spirit Devourer, and I can feel it once it appears. But I'm not the only one who has left a dark mark, there are many. More than ten years ago, the Spirit Swallower suddenly appeared, and those of us who left the dark mark noticed it, so we followed the mark and followed, unexpectedly it broke through the barrier and came to the Nether. As a result, our people were devoured by it when they broke through the barrier to the lower realm, and I was the only one who survived, but my body was also destroyed, and even the Yuan Soul was lost eight or nine times out of ten, barely surviving. Chen Li said.

"Oh! According to what the predecessors said, it is actually impossible to refine this spirit devouring spirit, even the powerful people of the upper realm have no way, and even those of us in the lower realm have no way. In this case, how can I help my predecessors find things to resist the Heavenly Tribulation in the future, and I think that things that can be useful to the predecessors to resist the Heavenly Tribulation should also be found in the original place. Xiao Ling couldn't help frowning.

"Ha Lu Ha, Xiao Ling kid can rest assured, as long as you help me return to the upper realm, I will tell you the method of refining the Spirit Devourer, but there are materials in it that do require a great chance to obtain, these are still a little far away for you, and I will tell you slowly when I wake up next time." Chen Li said.

"In that case, thank you seniors. The kid must do his best to achieve what his predecessors wanted!" After speaking, Xiao Ling bowed deeply at the remnant body.

"Hmm, Xiao Ling boy, my time is almost up, you put on this soul nourishing bead first, I will directly hit this Qiankun bead in your body, you warm it up first." I'm going to put some of the monastic experience and the materials that you need to gather directly into your mind, and you have to digest them slowly. After speaking, a white light shot out from the stump, and the white light flashed and disappeared into Xiao Ling's forehead, and in an instant, Xiao Ling's mind was filled with a large amount of information, and it was integrated into Xiao Ling's consciousness little by little.

When Xiao Ling was digesting the information that appeared in his mind, a pale green and inky black orb emerged from the remnants one after another, and the pale green orb flashed and directly sank into Xiao Ling's arm. The inky black bead was passed through by a purple string, and the bead slowly put on Xiao Ling's neck as if someone was holding it, and when the bead was set on Xiao Ling's neck, the black luster on the bead slowly converged. At the same time, a slightly old voice came from the inky black orb, "Xiao Ling boy, I will fall into a deep sleep now, not to mention it will take five hundred years to wake up, you can do it yourself during this time!

Xiao Ling still stood still after hearing the sound disappear, thinking about what Chen Li said, he always felt a little strange. However, these are not what Xiao Ling can figure out now, the most important thing now is to get to Qingyunmen as soon as possible is the most important thing, Xiao Ling does not have much time now, and if he doesn't hurry up, he may not be able to catch up with the entry trial.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ling settled down, raised his head to identify the direction and continued to walk forward.
