After hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly. He knew that the Demon Soul King was reminding him that the road ahead was full of challenges and dangers.
But he was not discouraged by this. Instead, he said more confidently: "Senior, don't be so gloating about misfortune. Isn't it just to leave your name on the dragon bone tower? This is not a difficult task for me!"
Ling Xiao's words were full of firmness and confidence. He knew that this required not only strength, but also perseverance and determination.
But he believes that as long as he keeps working hard and challenging himself, one day he will be able to leave his name on the keel tower.
"Indeed, with your outstanding talent, your future achievements will surely surpass that of the guy who claims to be the 'No.
Look down upon.”
Demon Soul King's eyes flashed with admiration and expectation, as if he had foreseen a stormy meeting in the future.
He continued: "For example, Ling Bi is extremely talented and has outstanding swordsmanship. He has already shown amazing attainments in martial arts at a young age.
There is also Weiwei. Although she comes from an ordinary background, she is diligent and hard-working, has a high level of understanding, and is especially talented in the way of evil spirits.
Furthermore, thanks to his strong character, he is brave and fearless. When he practiced martial arts, he took to the water like a fish in water and made rapid progress."
After hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Ling Xiao's eyes, and then he nodded and said: "What the senior said is absolutely true. The three of them are indeed talented people. Compared with me, they are only a little behind. As time goes by,
, they will definitely be able to shine in the martial arts."
Speaking of this, Ling Xiao showed a trace of apology on his face and said: "Senior, let's go back as soon as possible. They may have been waiting impatiently, after all, I have been here for a long time. Moreover, I also
Some can’t wait to share this experience and insights with them.”
After saying this, Ling Xiao no longer hesitated. He took a deep breath, as if he wanted to absorb all the spiritual energy in the spiritual path into his body, and then moved his body and left the spiritual path as quickly as lightning.
Ling Xiao walked leisurely to the entrance of the Spiritual Road, and the scene in front of him made him laugh. He saw a white-haired old man, leisurely holding a wine gourd, leaning on a huge stone and falling asleep soundly.
The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves and shone on his body, adding a bit of tranquility and peace to his vicissitudes of life.
Ling Xiao approached lightly, not wanting to disturb the old man's dream, but he couldn't help but smile and say hello: "Old man, are you resting?"
The old man seemed to be disturbed by Ling Xiao's voice, and opened his sleepy eyes slightly. When he saw clearly that the person coming was Ling Xiao, a look of surprise appeared on his face at first, and then turned into a faint smile.
He shook his head and said as if he was mocking himself: "Haha, you kid, you know that I am sleeping, and you deliberately disturb me. Huh? Wait, you are... that kid! You are still alive?"
Ling Xiao nodded with a smile and replied: "Yes, old man, I am still alive and living well."
A hint of admiration flashed in the old man's eyes, and then he put on a serious look and said: "It seems that I am blind. You kid was able to escape from that crisis without revealing anything. It's really disappointing.
People are impressed.”
Ling Xiao waved his hand modestly and said: "Everything is just a fluke. However, I still want to thank the old man for reminding me. I specially prepared a small gift this time, which is not a sign of respect."
As he spoke, he casually took out a storage ring with a faint luster from his storage bag and handed it to the old man.
The old man lowered his head and saw that the storage ring was filled with crystal-clear Sky Spirit Crystals. The amount was staggering. He was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said: "No reward for no merit, although I like this day
Spirit crystal, but I can’t just accept your things.”
Hearing this, Ling Xiao smiled and shook his head, saying: "Old man, don't be polite. Spiritual crystals are nothing to me these days, but they may come in handy for you. Besides, I'm just
I just want to make you my friend."
The old man stared at the storage ring and frowned slightly, as if he was weighing something. He raised his head, his eyes fell on Ling Xiao, looked at it carefully for a moment, and finally nodded lightly and collected the Tianling Crystals.
In the arms.
He spoke slowly, with a hint of determination in his voice: "I am not coveting the wealth of these days' spiritual crystals, but I appreciate your sincerity and courage. If you come to Linglu again in the future, you don't need to notify others, just come to me directly.
"
After hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart. He smiled and asked: "Old man, I haven't asked you how to address me yet?"
The old man laughed, with a bit of boldness in his voice: "People in the world call me 'Jiu Lao'."
"Jiu Lao, what a good name!" Ling Xiao praised, and then bowed again and saluted, "I have been interrupting you for a long time today, so I will take my leave."
The old man nodded slightly and watched Ling Xiao leave. He stared at Ling Xiao's back as he walked away, and the look in his eyes became complicated. He seemed to be thinking about something, and he seemed to be recalling something.
This young man seems to have extraordinary potential and background, and may be able to shine in the martial arts in the future. And he, Jiu Lao, will he be able to fight side by side with this young man again one day in the future and travel together in the world?
Woolen cloth?
Thinking of this, Jiu Lao couldn't help but sigh softly, and turned around and returned to his residence. He knew that no matter what the future holds, he will cherish this fate with Ling Xiao and look forward to the next encounter.
…
After leaving the Spiritual Road, Ling Xiao was worried about Ling Bi and his companions, worrying that they would be worried because of his long absence. So, he first went to the training place where they often gathered, and saw their figures concentrating on training from a distance.
.
He approached them gently, greeted them with a smile, explained the reason why he had just left, and told them that everything was fine and there was no need to worry. Seeing the relief and joy on their faces, Ling Xiao also felt
A burst of warmth.
Next, Ling Xiao's destination is the trading house of the Tianxiahui. He knows that he is about to be promoted to the Hunyuan realm. This is a major breakthrough and means a huge leap in strength for warriors.
The Hunyuan Pill is the key to promotion to the Hunyuan realm. This kind of pill can not only greatly improve the success rate of promotion, but more importantly, it can help warriors refine their internal energy into a more pure hybrid form.
The power of Yuan will lay a solid foundation for future cultivation.
Although even without the Hunyuan Pill, warriors can advance to the Hunyuan realm through their own efforts, such a promotion process is not only difficult, but also the effect will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, Ling Xiao made up his mind to buy a Hunyuan Pill, or at least the materials needed to refine the Hunyuan Pill. ()
