The innate true energy in his body was surging and vast, like an unfathomable sea of divine power, surging in his meridians like a mighty river.
Ling Xiao inhaled and exhaled the essence of heaven and earth. He could feel that his breathing and heaven and earth had a mysterious resonance, allowing him to influence the vast heaven and earth with his own strength. With a wave of his hand, he possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth.
He could even feel as if he could touch the illusory space.
"Break the void?"
There was a flickering look in Ling Xiao's eyes, and his entire body disappeared in the endless sea of clouds.
…
In the small mountain village at the foot of Mount Taichang, there is a winding river flowing at the head of the village. The river is extremely clear. A stone bridge is built over the river, and there is a peach forest in front.
At this moment, there are no peach blossoms in the peach groves, but white and red peaches are hanging on the branches, bending them.
Every time, Nannan would take Dahuang through the peach forest, sit on the stone bridge, look into the distance, and wait for something.
The sun is warm, the mountain village is quiet, and everything seems so beautiful.
"Da Huang, do you think Brother Ling Xiao will come back?"
Nannan talked to herself, her eyes full of anxiety and fear, with a maturity and sadness that did not match her age.
But Dahuang didn't understand what she said. He just lay lazily at her feet, resting his head on her legs very comfortably, with his eyes slightly squinted.
"Brother Ling Xiao said he would come back, so he will definitely come back! But Da Huang, I know Brother Ling Xiao is going to do great things, and I can't be a burden to him, and I shouldn't drag him down, but I just can't bear to leave him, and I really want to be with him forever..."
Nannan whispered to herself, with an expression that was sometimes sad and sometimes happy on her face.
Dahuang seemed to have gotten used to Nannan's mumbling. After all, Nannan would talk to herself for a long time every day while sitting on the stone bridge.
But Dahuang also missed that person a little.
After all, when that person was around, it had big bones to eat every day, but during this period of time, the big bones had long been eaten up, and Dahuang felt that his living standard had dropped sharply.
I miss those big bones!
Dahuang suddenly smelled a bloody smell, his slightly narrowed eyes suddenly opened, revealing an extremely alert look, and then he stared into the distance.
There, a figure slowly walked out from Taichang Mountain, holding a huge wild boar corpse in his hand. The wild boar was bleeding from all seven orifices, as if its head had been smashed by a punch and it died instantly. The bloody smell that Dahuang felt came from the wild boar corpse.
Is that the person
Da Huang shuddered all over and stood up immediately.
"Da Huang, what's wrong with you?"
Nannan, who was muttering to herself, was a little confused. Then she followed Dahuang's gaze and looked into the distance. She couldn't help but tremble all over, and a familiar figure appeared in her sight.
He was a young man dressed in white, with a slender and heroic figure, long black hair scattered unruly behind his head, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, which was very bright and beautiful.
He was holding a huge wild boar in his hand, which weighed over a thousand pounds, but it seemed as light as a feather in his hand.
"Brother Ling Xiao?!"
Nannan stared at Lingxiao in a daze, with an inexplicable look of surprise in her eyes, and suddenly tears flowed down.
I don’t know why, but the moment she saw Ling Xiao, Nannan felt extremely wronged. Tears flowed uncontrollably and soon blurred her eyes.
"Nannan, what's wrong with you? Brother Lingxiao is back!"
Ling Xiao's heart warmed up, and he quickly threw the wild boar corpse in his hand to the ground, ran over directly, then gently picked up Nannan, and wiped the tears from her face lovingly.
"Brother Lingxiao, I thought you didn't want Nannan anymore, wuwuwu..."
Nannan cried and laughed, and hugged Lingxiao's neck tightly and was unwilling to let go, as if Lingxiao would disappear if she let go.
"Silly girl, how could Brother Ling Xiao not want Nannan? Let's go home!"
Ling Xiao felt the panic and helplessness in Nannan's heart, felt Nannan's attachment and longing, and his heart became extremely soft.
“Woof woof woof…”
Behind him, Dahuang bit the wild boar's carcass and wanted to drag it to the village, but he couldn't drag such a huge animal at all, and barked anxiously.
Ling Xiao laughed in silence. He held Nannan in one hand and grabbed the wild boar's corpse with the other hand. However, Dahuang bit one of the wild boar's hooves and was unwilling to let go. He was also picked up by Ling Xiao and walked towards the small mountain village.
Soon, the quiet little mountain village became lively because of Ling Xiao's appearance.
The following time was the quietest time for Ling Xiao.
He did not practice cultivation and did not think about anything. He just stayed by Nannan's side. He went to the mountains to chop wood and hunt every day. When he came back, Nannan had already prepared a large table of food for him.
This is also Nannan’s happiest time. It seems that as long as brother Lingxiao is by her side, everything becomes so beautiful.
Ling Xiao's heart felt an unprecedented peace.
This is a forgotten world, but the creatures in this world still have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, birth, aging, sickness, and death. They have their own feelings, their own hopes, and things they want to protect.
Ling Xiao carefully experienced this emotion and immersed himself in it. Although he did not practice, his cultivation was actually advancing by leaps and bounds in a strange way.
He seemed to be returning to nature, becoming more and more like a mortal.
The brilliance was restrained, the true energy dissipated, he seemed to have forgotten that he was a warrior, and also forgotten all memories about cultivation. At this moment, he was just an ordinary person.
It wasn't until three months later that Ling Xiao felt the bottleneck.
It was like a bottleneck, and also like a confinement, as if this world was confining Ling Xiao, making him want to break this confinement and gain freedom.
Ling Xiao knew that if he took one more step forward, he would be able to break through the void!
"Finally, I have reached the realm that Taiyi talked about along this road! However, I don't believe that this is the only road! Three months have passed, and it's time to go..."
Ling Xiao said to himself, his eyes extremely calm, looking in the direction of Taichang Mountain.
"Brother Ling Xiao, are you leaving?"
When Nannan heard Ling Xiao's words, her face instantly turned extremely pale.
"That's right! Nannan, I'm leaving! But this time I'll take you with me. No matter where I go in the future, I'll take you with me, okay?"
Ling Xiao smiled and touched Nannan's little head.
"Brother Lingxiao, won't Nannan be a burden to you? I heard that the world outside is very dangerous. Nannan can stay here and wait for you to come back!"
Although Nannan was a little moved, she still said to Lingxiao.
"Don't worry, Nannan! I can protect you. I have the final say in this world!"
Ling Xiao smiled slightly, with a sharp gleam in his eyes.
