spnThe south of the mainland is also called the Four Cities. Because it is ruled by the four major forces of Shura King City, Blood Imperial City, Flower City and Thousand Shadows City, and the names of these four major forces are related to its forces.
The largest city in the range has the same name.
Shura King City has the largest sphere of influence, and the entire north-central part of the Four Cities is its territory; the second most powerful Blood Imperial City occupies part of the territory in the east and south of the Four Cities; the rest is occupied by 'Huadu' and Qianying
The city is divided up. Among the four major forces, except for the Blood Imperial Capital in the east and Thousand Shadows City in the west, which are not bordering each other, any two major forces are bordering each other.
Among them, in the vast area bordering the Shura King City and the Flower Capital, there is an ancient and mysterious city, and its name is the Immortal City. There is a famous secret realm in the east of the Immortal City, called the Immortal Secret Realm, which attracts people every year.
Countless explorers go!
On the road from King Shura City to the Immortal City, six people, one old, five young, were walking leisurely.
An old man with a half-hundred-year-old beard and hair, and a rather wretched expression. His name is Zhao Ji, and he is a teacher in the preparatory class of the First Academy of the best academy in King Shura City. Following him are five young people, including
There are five students in the class. They are Yi Tianshi, Song Yan, Ouyang Lun, Qu Fei, and Liu Yang.[
While walking, Zhao Ji suddenly said: "Boys, have you seen it? After passing the mountain in front, we are about to reach the Immortal City. Haha, are you excited? Are you excited?"
Zhao Ji's enthusiasm did not arouse any response from others.
If there is anything that is the most painful thing for a warrior to do, then traveling is definitely one of them. Especially this kind of traveling, which is all about rushing. Zhao Ji has long been used to it, but the five young people have long been tired of it.
They are now like the rising sun and budding flowers. Their whole bodies are full of vitality and upward force. During the journey he was talking about, he had no time to practice. It didn't matter at first, but now he has enough.
Eight days.
Not practicing for one day is a huge sin for them, let alone eight days.
Since Zhao Ji left the Shura King's City, he has lost his usual style and has become silent. He speaks no more than ten sentences a day, and several of them are about 'rest', 'eat', etc.
His team members were thinking, it would be great if you could tell us about the history of this continent or something interesting, but Zhao Ji didn't.
Just now, Zhao Ji suddenly said something very passionate, which surprised everyone. However, because the enthusiasm of the five people had been exhausted, even though Zhao Ji said something very passionate, the students
Not very cooperative.
"What's wrong? Aren't you excited? Do you still want to continue on your way?" Zhao Ji asked again.
At this time, even Liu Yang, who was usually the most active, didn't reply. Only Yi Tianshi, the team leader, slowly replied: "I don't want to think about it... As for the excitement, it's okay, it's just fun to talk on the way."
Zhao Ji laughed twice and said meaningfully: "Hey, I can't hold it back clearly, but it's good to let you experience loneliness in advance. You are all warriors, and warriors are lonely after all. Maybe you are still
There is enthusiasm and passion. But you will understand in the future, hey, warriors, you have to be able to endure loneliness."
Are all warriors lonely?
Perhaps Master Yi Tianshi in the previous life would have answered 'yes' without any doubt, but in this life, he has slightly changed his mind.
Relatives, friends, teammates... well, there are also opponents. With so many people by your side, how can you be lonely?
Yi Tianshi did not answer. Instead, Song Yan, who had had the same experience as Yi Tianshi in his previous life, answered: "Teacher Zhao, why? Are we going to be so lonely all our lives?"
When Song Yan asked, several other people also looked at Zhao Ji with the same expression.
Zhao Ji seemed to know what Song Yan and the others were thinking, and smiled and said: "You are still young, so your feelings are not very clear yet. Shouldn't I say it? When you get older, you will understand.
When your relatives leave you one step earlier, maybe you will understand. As warriors, the higher you go, the more powerful you will be, but similarly, the higher you go, the lonelier we will be."
Zhao Ji's words, including protecting Yi Tianshi, were not very clear, but they sounded correct and seemed to be unable to find anything wrong with it.
Just when they were about to ask questions again, Zhao Ji continued: "Let me ask you a question. Can you guess how many years I have lived now?"
How long did Zhao Ji live?[
Master Yi and the others are really hard to guess. Because people who reach the Blue Sky Realm generally start to slow down their aging process, so people who break through the Blue Sky Realm earlier will generally look younger. However, looking at Zhao Ji like this, what do you think?
It seems that he is at least fifty or sixty years old, but if he really broke through to the Blue Sky Realm so late, how could he possibly break through to the Purple Sky Realm.
Regardless of this, generally speaking, if you break through to the Purple Heaven Realm, the upper limit of the normal life is five hundred years. In other words, Zhao Ji may have lived for a long time, plus he is one of the top three alchemists in Shura King City
, this is not something that can be achieved in a short time, not to mention that he is only at the level of the Purple Heaven Realm.
Calculating this way and that, they really can't say how long Zhao Ji lived.
"One hundred years old?"
"I think it's at least three hundred!"
"Um, teacher, he's not over four hundred years old!"
"Is it eighty? Fifty?..."
…
Everyone made random guesses, but Zhao Ji kept shaking his head. It was obvious that they were not correct.
So, Ouyang Lun asked, "Teacher Zhao, it's really hard to say. I think it's at least two hundred years old. Hey, just announce the answer!"
Zhao Ji smiled and shook his head, but said nothing. He looked ahead again, and a majestic and steep mountain came into view.
Unknowingly, Zhao Ji changed the topic and said: "Hey, I saw this mountain from a distance just now, which made you less enthusiastic. Now I finally come to him. How is it? How do you feel about him? Do you want to
Let’s change the game and have a competition here?”
"Competition, what kind of competition is it?" Liu Yang was now completely active.
"This mountain is called Dangshan. It is about five thousand meters high. In terms of length, it is 20,000 meters long from here. The bet I want to make is, which of you can cross this mountain first and reach the other side of the mountain?
Let's go there. There is a small town called Ping'an Town. We who arrived first will gather at the Wanchun Restaurant, the largest restaurant in the town. Do you dare to compete?" Zhao Ji said slowly. He said very seriously.
Serious, very precise, and seems to be very familiar with this.
"OK!"
"Of course no problem!"
…
The boring journey for seven or eight consecutive days had already exhausted everyone. When it was mentioned that there was such a competition, why didn't everyone flock to it?
Seeing this scene, Zhao Ji also smiled happily and said: "Okay, from now on. I will go to Wanchun Restaurant to wait for you!"
As soon as Zhao Ji finished speaking, the five people headed by Yi Tianshi rushed towards the mountain. Although they did not make any preparations, they were warriors and practiced spiritual martial arts, so even if the natural environment was a bit harsh,
But it still had no impact on them. At this time, the questions that Zhao Ji had not answered just now seemed to have been forgotten in their minds.
And just as Ouyang Lun, who was the slowest to react, gradually disappeared from Zhao Ji's sight, Zhao Ji put away his smile and turned it into a slightly sad expression.
"Haha, how old am I? You can never guess. Don't you know? I am almost three thousand years old. Even Shura King Yi Guizang has not lived as long as me. Alas, in fact, I shouldn't be with them.
Speaking of which, if they have a chance to live for such a long time, they will definitely feel how I feel now. However, that Master Yi Tian probably won't have this chance."[
Zhao Ji said to himself, his eyes full of confusion, but at the last moment it turned into determination.
