When Xu You saw the lonely tomb in the forest for the first time, he was stunned.
Suddenly, his vision went dark, his knees became weak, and he almost fell to the ground.
"Liar..." Xu You murmured in a low voice. After being in a daze for a long time, he walked towards the grave one step at a time.
After a while, he walked to the tomb and looked at the erected green granite tombstone with four strange large characters engraved on it: Sister's Tomb.
After staring at the tombstone for a long time, Xu You slowly knelt down. He reached out and groped in his arms, took out three things, and then carefully placed them in front of the tombstone.
The first thing was an exquisite black crossbow, which was no bigger than a palm. The black crossbow arrow, which was only about an inch long, was attached to the bowstring. A deep blue light shone from the sharp metal arrow.
The second item was a dark green jade box, the lid of which had been opened, and inside was a red pill the size of a pigeon egg, which exuded a strange fragrance.
The third item was a light green suit made of unknown materials. It looked very light and soft.
After placing the three things and looking at the tombstone, Xu You's delicate face softened a lot.
"I really didn't expect that I would meet you in this way three years later... Well, I won't cry. I am not the child who just crossed over from the earth three years ago."
"I think of it like it was yesterday. I remember that when I first traveled to this world, I encountered a wild wolf and almost died... Fortunately, you saved me. I asked you what kind of ghost place this was, and you said this was the spiritual world.
"
"I asked you blankly, how am I going to go home? You said I couldn't go back, so I cried uselessly..."
"Later, you said that I could go home, but it was only possible if I became a spiritual practitioner. You said that spiritual practitioners are practitioners in the spiritual world. Through practice, they have incredible power. When they are powerful enough to shatter the void, they can regain their original form.
world."
"I know that you are a spiritual practitioner. You said that if I can complete three things, you will teach me how to practice."
"So I spent three years learning to survive, learn martial arts, and learn to adapt to the spiritual world where the weak eat the strong. After going through many hardships, I obtained the Beihai Crossbow, the Panacea, and the Heavenly Silkworm Suit. I finally completed the three things you mentioned.
"
"But what's the point now? You're dead and can't see anything... Didn't you say that you are omnipotent and that you will never die? Why did you lie to me!"
Xu You had blue veins on his forehead and suddenly jumped up, shaking the tombstone vigorously and shouting at the top of his lungs.
After struggling for a long time, he sat slumped on the ground, leaning against the tombstone, with an expression of indescribable sadness: "With you gone, I can no longer become a spiritual practitioner, and I can't go home, I can't go back...
"
As he muttered, countless fragments flashed through his mind, all scenes of being together with his parents and relatives before time travel. At the time, he didn't think it was anything, but now that he thinks about it, it is extremely warm.
I have persisted for three years just to have the warm hope of reunion, but now, everything has come to nothing.
Now that his sister is gone, how can he become a spiritual practitioner?
Xu You sighed heavily and stood up.
Suddenly, as if a bolt of lightning struck his mind, he froze on the spot and stared blankly at the tombstone, as if he had thought of something.
"No... I remember that you have always been alone. You have no friends or relatives. I have never heard you mention anyone. You also said that you don't know anyone except me. Who set it up for you?"
tombstone?"
Xu You muttered to himself and frowned.
The more he thought about it, the more doubtful he became. A bold idea suddenly emerged from his mind and was irresistible.
"Even if I really die, I will open the tomb and take a look at you for the last time!"
Just do it, Xu You put away the three things. He pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist, then broke off two thick branches, chopped them with the dagger for a long time, made a simple wooden shovel, and started digging.
stand up.
Soon, the grave was dug open, and Xu You only dug down to a depth of less than one meter before he encountered the coffin.
His heart was beating fast, he put away the dagger, jumped into the grave pit, and hurriedly wiped off the floating soil on the coffin.
The coffin was nailed shut, but Xu You grabbed both sides of the coffin with both hands, and with a strong force, the lid of the coffin was forcefully opened with a creak.
The light of daylight shone down clearly, and there was nothing inside the coffin.
"Sister, you are a nasty female liar..."
Xu You was stunned for a while, then suddenly smiled, feeling as if he was relieved and ecstatic, and his heart felt like it was going to explode.
He lowered his head and looked into the coffin, and found that there was nothing inside. There was an ordinary piece of paper.
Xu You picked up the piece of paper, and there was a line of small words written on it: If you want to achieve spiritual cultivation, you must practice the Spiritual God Art.
Then, the piece of paper suddenly ignited with a flame, instantly turned into ashes, and disappeared silently from Xu You's hand.
Xu You was stunned for a moment and jumped up from the grave, with a thoughtful look on his face.
The Spiritual God Technique is not an enigmatic secret book. It was a strange set of formulas taught to him by his sister when he first traveled to the spirit world three years ago, and she forced him to recite them and practice them every day.
Xu You was tortured terribly at first, but then he gradually got used to it. Today, three years later, he has cultivated the Spiritual God Art into an instinct, and can operate it naturally at any time without any deliberate effort.
However, after three years of practicing the Spiritual God Art, Xu You has not become a spiritual cultivator and is still a mortal.
So what is the meaning of my sister’s words?
"Help!" Suddenly, a shrill cry for help came from the forest, interrupting Xu You's meditation.
Xu You just raised his head and saw a young woman running out of the forest exit not far away. She was wearing a light green dress, with a slim figure and an extremely beautiful appearance.
But at this moment, this beautiful woman's clothes were covered in blood, her steps were staggering, her delicate body was shaking, she was obviously injured.
When she saw Xu You, she immediately rushed over as if seeing a life-saving straw, calling for help: "Help, little brother, help me, there are bad people who want to kill me."
As soon as she finished speaking, a middle-aged man wearing light yellow clothes and a murderous expression appeared from behind her.
When he saw Xu You, his expression changed, but his pace did not slow down, and he was much faster than the woman.
Xu You was startled and then calmed down. A hero rescuing a beauty may be a beautiful thing on earth, but in the spiritual world where the jungle prevails, it is asking for trouble. Especially when the strength of both parties is unclear, one must be self-aware.
After traveling in the spiritual world for several years, Xu You has seen many examples of people who tried to save themselves and others, but ended up getting involved in grudges and being hunted to death.
His mind turned and he made a decision, so he strode back to the roadside, raised his dagger and pointed it at the woman, loudly saying: "I have nothing to do with you, don't come here, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."
The beautiful woman's face changed slightly, but her steps did not slow down at all. She ran straight towards him and begged: "Little brother, can you bear to die without saving me? Are you so cruel?"
Xu You's face turned cold, his wrist vibrated slightly, and the dagger suddenly made a loud sound as it pierced the air, as if he was about to throw it.
He had made his position clear, but the other party still insisted on rushing over, obviously intending to drag him into the water and use him as a shield.
Xu You didn't want to hurt this woman, he just wanted to scare her away, but if the other person didn't know what to do, he couldn't be polite.
Seeing that he had no intention of rescuing her, the beautiful woman's eyes were full of resentment. She had to turn around and said loudly: "Little brother, I am Lu Xinyan, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, a second-level spiritual cultivator family. I was chased by the spiritual cultivator of the Chang family.
Kill, run away quickly and spread this news."
"Spiritual practice?" Xu You was stunned, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
Unexpectedly, these two people turned out to be practitioners, which was very troublesome. Moreover, the beautiful woman said this, obviously to attract trouble to him, so that she could take the opportunity to escape.
Sure enough, the middle-aged man in yellow just caught up with him. When he heard the beautiful woman's words, his eyes suddenly turned serious when he looked at Xu You.
"I haven't heard anything, and I won't spread any news." Xu You hurriedly took a few steps back and said loudly and warily.
Although the beautiful woman gave him a try, the middle-aged man in yellow was anxious to pursue her, and he was a stranger to her, so there was absolutely no need to kill her and waste time.
However, unexpectedly, the middle-aged man in yellow suddenly turned to him without saying a word, flew out with lightning speed, and kicked him hard in the chest.
This kick made a sound that broke through the air and was extremely powerful. If it had been a real kick, his chest and ribs would have been shattered and he would have vomited blood and died.
Xu You was shocked and angry, and hurriedly moved away. He didn't expect that this middle-aged man would really kill him.
The middle-aged man in yellow missed his kick and was slightly startled. He seemed not to have expected this young man to be so agile.
He immediately struck with his hands, and a powerful aura quickly gathered between his palms.
Xu You's expression changed drastically, knowing that this middle-aged man was going to use spiritual attacks.
He walked in the spiritual world and had heard and witnessed the unpredictable power of ghosts and gods, which mortals simply could not compete with.
Escape? In the face of terrifying spiritual arts, escaping is a living target for the opponent to attack.
Without thinking, Xu You rushed towards the middle-aged man in yellow like a powerful leopard like lightning. At the same time, he swung out his left fist and hit the opponent's temple hard.
Before the middle-aged man in yellow finished his spiritual art, Xu You's fist came in front of him.
Life and death were at stake, so Xu You used all his strength, his fists making thunderous sounds. If he hit it hard, even a hard rock would break into pieces.
The middle-aged man's expression also changed. Although this young man was not a spiritual practitioner, he was very powerful. If he was hit in the temple, he would still die.
He gave up on the stranglehold and quickly retreated, trying to distance himself before using spiritual magic to kill the young man.
The beautiful woman's spiritual power was exhausted and she was seriously injured. She couldn't run far. It was completely too late to kill the young man and then kill the beautiful woman.
However, Xu You's punch missed, but a cold light flashed in his eyes. He suddenly opened his right hand, which was also clenching his fist, and a small black crossbow emerged from the palm of his hand.
The Beihai crossbow was held in his hand at some point.
Whoosh! An inch-long black crossbow arrow shot out, instantly hitting the middle-aged man in yellow between the eyebrows at a very close distance.
The left fist is a feint, but the real killing move is hidden in the right fist. When the opponent dodges the feint and relaxes slightly, the killing move will be revealed.
The middle-aged man in yellow screamed, but did not fall down. Instead, he pulled out the black crossbow arrow and threw it on the ground. But as the black crossbow arrow splashed out, it was blood that turned completely black, and the fishy smell filled the air.
.
"The arrows are poisonous!" he yelled with a mix of fright and anger.
Xu You pounced forward, attacking the middle-aged man in yellow with fists and kicks like a storm.
The middle-aged man in yellow roared angrily, but he was seriously injured and was entangled by Xu You, so he could not use spiritual magic to drive away the poison. The toxin entered the brain and acted very quickly, and the poison was even more severe. In the blink of an eye, he was
His eyes turned black, and black blood began to ooze from his mouth and nose.
"If you let me detoxify, I will let you go. Two of us will catch up soon. You can't escape." He shouted.
Xu You didn't seem to hear anything. He spotted the opening and struck his chest with a fierce whip.
Click, click, click... Accompanied by the sound of ribs breaking, the middle-aged man in yellow screamed and flew out.
Before he could struggle, Xu You rushed up and stomped on his forehead, causing the middle-aged man's skull to burst and killing him instantly.
After killing the middle-aged man in yellow, Xu You didn't stop at all. He picked up the black crossbow arrows, wrapped them in cloth, and ran away deep into the forest.
He didn't want to cause trouble, but the beautiful woman had already involved him in the dispute. In order to protect himself, he had no choice but to kill and escape.;
