The unknown black magma rolled downstream in the river bed. From time to time, bubbles appeared and floated out. The bubbles burst and made loud explosions.レ★\/\学.oc★\/\レ
The entire river bed was filled with such blisters, and a strong smell of sulfur spread in the air, making those watching frown secretly.
This river is exactly the black water river that Xiao Chen and others saw in the distance. What flows in the river is not water, but this kind of disgusting but full of violent energy magma.
The team of fifty people, killing various star beasts along the way, finally came to the river bank. They were not very surprised when they saw this scene.
After all, in the endless starry sky, anything can happen. A river with black magma is far from something strange and incomprehensible.
The deputy palace master glanced around, and then set his sights on the black forest on the other side of the river.
"Xiao Chen, Cui Hao, I'll leave this to you first. I'll go to the forest and come back."
After finishing speaking, his body floated slightly, crossed the wide black river, rushed into the black forest, and slowly disappeared from everyone's sight.
It was obviously not the first time Cui Hao had dealt with this matter. He gave a few instructions to a few fellow disciples and then came back.
The team came all the way. There were not many battles, but they were still a little tired. They all began to close their eyes to rest, or chatted, and there was a sense of expectation in their words.
Xiao Chen looked at the black forest. If he guessed correctly, the deputy palace master should have gone inside to hunt the star beasts above level three.
Only the star beasts below the second level were left, and then they were put directly in and left alone.
From this point of view, we can see some suspicions from the fact that we didn't encounter any third-level star beasts along the way.
Sure enough, not long after, some sharp roars were heard from the black forest, which was obviously a fierce battle.
"Tomorrow when we enter the black forest, we should fight separately." Cui Hao sat opposite Xiao Chen and threw out a bottle of wine.
Xiao Chen took the bottle, opened the cap and took a sip, saying, "How long have you been coming to Zhantian Palace? It seems that you are already very familiar with the routine of this trial."
Cui Hao took a sip of his wine and said with a sad smile: "It's been almost ten years. Trials are usually like this. We hunt the star beasts that can kill us instantly, then break us up and throw us in to fight on our own. "
Ten years sounds like a long time, but in Cui Hao's eyes, he doesn't see many traces of time.
With his qualifications, he can definitely become a saint before the age of fifty. After becoming a saint, the lifespan of a warrior will increase again, reaching five hundred years.
Ten years, in the long years that followed, was indeed nothing. But at this moment, Cui Hao's expression had a hint of sadness and seemed quite lonely.
"Xiao Chen, what is the situation in the Tianwu Territory now? Have you heard of these people?"
Suddenly, Cui Hao changed the topic and asked a question that had nothing to do with the trial. He mentioned many names and asked Xiao Chen if he knew about it.
Xiao Chen shook his head every time he said it, saying that he had never heard of it. After hearing this, Cui Hao's eyes, which were already gloomy, became even more sad.
It wasn't until he finally said a name that Xiao Chen replied: "An Junxi, this person is very impressive now. He tied with Feng Wuji of the Holy Land Shenwu Sect and became the new Holy Son of the Tianwu Domain. He is considered to be the most popular evil genius now. "
Cui Hao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he burst into laughter. He laughed a little maniacally. He took a sip of wine and said: "The rivers are constantly surging. Those young heroes who were invincible and dazzling ten years ago did not expect that... Ten years later, no one knows about them, and there is no news.”
Xiao Chen suddenly realized that the names mentioned by the other party were all great people back then, comparable to the current Seven Giants, who were high-spirited and famous all over the world.
It's a pity that with the advent of the golden era of warriors, these names that could have been famous and famous are all overshadowed by the light of those who come after them, or even more tragically, they directly become stepping stones for others.
In ordinary times, becoming a semi-saint at the age of thirty is an earth-shattering event, but in this prosperous age, he is just an ordinary genius and cannot make any splash.
Among the seven giants, every one of them became a half-saint before the age of thirty, and they killed the older semi-saints and evil cultivators like pigs and dogs.
He was full of lofty ideals, but the waves in front of him had no time to stretch his ambitions, so pieces of them were beaten to death on the beach by the waves from behind.
And it's still that kind of extremely ruthless stride to overtake, and he is so shaken that he can't even see his back.
In the peak of prosperity, I just regret that I was born at the wrong time, came too early, and passed by this great age. For a warrior who has always wanted to be famous for a long time, it has to be said that it is really a kind of sadness.
That kind of sadness is incomprehensible to outsiders.
"An Junxi, An Junxi, that little boy ten years ago couldn't get away with any move in my hands. Now even the mythical Holy Son can't defeat him."
After finishing the wine in the pot, Cui Hao poured it down a few times and found that there was no water left. With a wave of his hand, he threw the wine pot directly into his billowing black water, and it shattered into pieces with a bang.
Xiao Chen was silent in his heart. No wonder Cui Hao was so upset when he heard An Junxi had such achievements. It turned out that there was a secret hidden in it.
Cui Hao glanced at the previous true disciples who were resting with their eyes closed not far away, and said: "Xiao Chen, do you know? Most people in Zhantian Palace will be able to become saints before they are a hundred years old, unless there is an accident. "
"In ordinary times, if you become a saint at the age of 100, no matter what kind of peerless genius you are, you will definitely be able to become the overlord of a party. Entering the Zhantian Palace, these people have all kinds of dreams in their hearts, but you can come and completely crush them all."
Xiao Chen asked doubtfully: "Me?"
"Actually, I should thank you for coming in advance, otherwise it would be even more uncomfortable if a large number of people came directly."
"Although they have been in Zhantian Palace, they also know some news about the prosperous age of warriors, and they almost guessed the ending. Your arrival just woke them up in advance."
Cui Hao said in a low voice. Although he was talking about them, whether he admitted it or not, Cui Hao was indeed one of the people who was woken up.
The two of them chatted for a long time this time. Cui Hao talked a lot about the geniuses of their time, and those names that were outstanding in their time.
Xiao Chen also talked about the current Tianwu Territory, the seven undefeated giants, the peerless monsters like Yan Shisan from the royal family, and the heroes from all walks of life who now stand together in the Tianwu Territory.
In the end, Cui Hao drank too much and fell asleep slowly, leaving Xiao Chen alone to talk.
He was telling his own story, his experiences along the way, recalling many past events and remembering the names of many people.
Those names were once famous in the firmament world. Now it is no longer known where it is scattered, and no one knows whether it will one day rise again.
At the end of the lecture, Xiao Chen suddenly realized that the problem that had confused him not long ago suddenly became clear.
In order for the Purple Thunder Art to break through the sixth level and reach the seventh level, it must go through the thunder tribulation and the heart tribulation, and if not possible, it will end in a narrow escape and annihilation.
He was indeed afraid at that time, afraid of losing, afraid that after death, there would be nothing left. I am afraid that the reputation I have gained after hard work until today will be lost all of a sudden.
I take myself too seriously and worry that I will be forgotten by future generations after becoming nothing, so I feel timid in my heart.
But if you look up at the starry sky, you will see endless stars. Even the most dazzling sun star will die one day.
In the past, Cui Hao was also very high-spirited, but in just ten years, he became unknown, and those famous names also disappeared with the wind.
What does Xiao Chen mean to him? Even if time goes by and he really reaches the top of the avenue, he will always be surpassed by others after millions of years.
The river is surging and the waves are ruthless. No one will always stand at the top. The peak is meant to be surpassed.
With a panoramic view of the starry sky, the look in Xiao Chen's eyes became clearer and brighter.
I don’t care what others think of me in ten thousand years. In this life, I will try my best to reach the top, strive for the first place, and even die without regrets.
