"Pig thieves? You're a stinky beggar, how dare you call us the pimp thieves?"
The leader, a big man, raised his sharp knife with a ferocious look on his face, "Even if you were once a monk, so what? A phoenix that sheds its hair is worse than a chicken!"
Lifting his feet, the leading man kicked Mr. Long hard in the chest.
"Pfft..."
After being seriously injured and being kicked like this again, Mr. Long spurted out a mouthful of blood, his eyes were filled with stars, and he was dying.
However, those eyes are still bright, still proud and unyielding!
"How dare you glare at me? I'll dig out your eyes!"
The big man grabbed the knife and stabbed it with his hand.
"Brother, don't! Don't break it! If you break the body, it won't be worth anything!"
A man next to him reached out and grabbed the "big brother", "Brother, Master Black Soul is refining corpse soldiers and wants complete corpses. What will you do if you blind them and can't sell them?"
"Do corpse soldiers also need eyes?"
The big man was stunned for a moment. He couldn't figure it out. The corpse soldiers were obviously corpses, so why did they need eyes? Can you still see it
"The cultivator's stuff is really weird. Forget it, let's not gouge out our eyes, let's kill him first."
The big man took a sip, grabbed the sharp knife and walked to Mr. Long, "Hey, this is my first time to kill a practitioner! Even though he is a useless practitioner."
Raising the sharp knife, the big man stabbed him with the knife. With a "pop" sound, it pierced Mr. Long's... thigh.
"Well… "
Mr. Long groaned in pain, gritted his teeth and stared at the big man, with endless hatred in his eyes.
"Brother...brother, why didn't you get stabbed?"
Seeing the big man stabbing into Young Master Long's thigh, a subordinate next to him screamed in surprise.
"This is my first time to kill a cultivator. Of course I have to kill a few more times, and of course I have to kill slowly. What's the point of killing a practitioner once and for all?"
The big man grinned and turned to look at the other accomplices, "Come on, let's all eat meat. It's a rare opportunity for everyone to kill each other. When you brag to others, you can say that you have killed a cultivator!"
"Hahahaha! Brother is right!"
Several of the accomplices laughed, pulled out sharp knives one by one, and walked up with a sinister smile.
"Damn it! This young master has to endure this humiliation even before he dies!"
Mr. Long's eyes were about to burst, and he was filled with grief and anger.
"Even if I die, I won't die in the hands of you thieves!"
With a roar, Mr. Long used all his strength, raised his head, aimed at the stone platform of the statue behind him, and slammed into it.
"Bang!"
Summoning the last of his strength, Mr. Long rushed out and hit the broken statue heavily.
Blood splatters!
The blood spurting out soaked the half-remaining statue.
"I hate it!"
His vision became increasingly blurry, and before his death, Mr. Long let out one last unwilling roar.
"Buzz..."
Suddenly, a red glow burst out from the blood-soaked statue.
There was a flash of light, like a long dragon transformed from red smoke, roaring and winding, and rushed into Mr. Long's body.
"Boom!"
A huge and boundless power poured into the body, washing over Mr. Long's body like an angry wave.
In just a moment, Mr. Long’s injuries healed instantly.
This huge and boundless power was completely integrated into Mr. Long’s body. The red haze is like a dragon, circling around Master Long's dantian.
Huge power filled his body, Young Master Long's whole body glowed, and he floated into the air.
"This this… "
"The corpse has changed! Run!"
"Run!"
Several robber thieves were so frightened that they screamed strangely, turned around and ran away.
"snort!"
Mr. Long's face was full of rage, his eyes were cold.
"You thieves, how dare you insult me? Go to hell!"
With a wave of his hand, a red cloud rose up from his palm like a swimming dragon. With just one twist, the thieves instantly turned into flying ashes.
"Huh..."
After letting out a long breath, Mr. Long fell to the ground, turned to look at the completely broken half of the statue, and bowed respectfully.
"Thanks to the legacy of our predecessors, the younger generation can escape from death and make a comeback. I am grateful for the kindness of rebuilding."
Yes, Young Master Long had another adventure and received a peerless inheritance.
"Kowtow three times and you will receive my true inheritance!"
At this time, endless crimson clouds suddenly burst into Mr. Long's mind, and a mighty voice, like a great bell, sounded in his mind.
"Huh? Is this... a chance?"
Mr. Long originally thought that this unexpected encounter only allowed him to escape death and recover from his injuries, but he did not expect that there was a "true inheritance".
"Hahahaha! Sure enough! Sure enough! I am indeed the protagonist! Every failure, every downfall, is an opportunity to rise again!"
A surge of ecstasy arose in his heart, but Mr. Long, who had suffered a loss and suffered once, was no longer so arrogant, not so public, and not so "obsessed with confidence".
"Disciple Long Ao, pay homage to Master!"
Facing the completely broken statue, Mr. Long kowtowed respectfully.
After three bows, Mr. Long heard a "boom" in his mind.
Red clouds were billowing all over the sky, and a glorious and majestic figure wearing a red robe, a vermillion gourd hanging around his waist, and a head full of red hair appeared in Master Long's mind.
"My name is Hongyun, after the creation of the world, the first cloud took shape in the world."
"Because I received Hongmeng Purple Qi, I was jealous and framed, and fell under the siege of Donghuang Taiyi, Dijun, Minghe, and Kunpeng."
"I have glimpsed the secrets of heaven and know that death is inevitable. I have calculated that in hundreds of millions of years, a destined person will arrive and leave a legacy here."
"A trace of my true spirit has not been extinguished. After reincarnation, I will definitely return to heaven and earth. Those who inherit my inheritance need to protect my reincarnation body and re-enter the Tao."
"Are you... willing?"
Hearing the voice in his mind and seeing the red-robed figure, Mr. Long was shocked and his heart was horrified.
"So... it's Hongyun?"
As a "traveler", how could Mr. Long not have heard Hongyun's "unfortunate and tragic" story
"No wonder I got the pieces of the Nine-Nine Sanpo Gourd. No wonder I'm so depressed. No wonder I came to this broken house. It turns out... I am destined to Hongyun! It turns out that I am Hongyun's destined person!"
After thinking about the "ins and outs", Mr. Long felt happy.
"Disciples who receive the master's inheritance should protect the master's reincarnation body and re-enter the Tao."
The opportunity was in front of him, so Mr. Long would not miss it, and he quickly accepted the task of "protecting Hongyun's reincarnation body to enter the Tao".
"In this way, I will teach you everything I have learned!"
The red-robed figure that appeared in his mind smiled and nodded.
With a "boom", the red-robed figure exploded into pieces, turned into clouds that filled the sky, and rushed into Mr. Long's body.
"Boom!"
A vast and boundless force, like the Milky Way hanging upside down or the river bursting its banks, rushed into Mr. Long's body.
The crimson zhenqi penetrated his whole body, and Young Master Long's cultivation level skyrocketed.
In a matter of seconds, he went from "refining energy to transform into energy", breaking through to "refining energy to transform into spirit", and was promoted to "refining spirit to return to void".
When this power was completely integrated into his body, Mr. Long was horrified to discover that he... was already at the peak of "Taiyi True Immortal" and was only one step away from becoming a Golden Immortal.
"Hahahaha! This young master has risen again!"
Mr. Long laughed loudly, with a cold light in his eyes, "Those who have insulted me, and those who have betrayed me, your death has come!"
