Tintin hadn't seen Hualan for a long time. Hualan's name suddenly lit up in the friend list. Tintin, who had just been transferred from the town to the skyscraper city, insisted on checking the friend list every day.
"Lan, why haven't you come in since you last went offline?" Ding Ding sent the message quickly, seeming anxious as they hadn't seen each other for such a long time.
"Hehe, look how anxious you are. After I went offline last time, Brother Hai called me. He told me about his practice in the game and asked me to think about it. After thinking about it, I finally decided to come in and give it a try. I have been busy with school matters recently. You also know that I have completed two years of university courses during the summer vacation, so I applied to the school for the two-year course exam. After the exam, I applied for a one-year long vacation. Haha, I came in right after I finished." As soon as Hualan came online, Ding Ding noticed it, making her heart as sweet as drinking honey!
"Oh, that means you can be online for a long time. Haha, that's good. I haven't seen you online for a while, and I miss you so much. Come to Skyscraper City now. The eldest master and I are all here." When Ding Ding heard that Hualan would stay in the game for a year, he was so excited that he couldn't wait to call Hualan to Skyscraper City.
"Ding Ding!" The two were speechless as Ding Ding gently hugged his sweetheart. Fortunately, Ding Ding still had his own skyscraper city this time. There were few players, although there were always spectators. But compared to last time, at least he could leave easily this time without having to flee in a hurry.
Hualan is still as beautiful as before. Now Hualan is no longer the melancholy she used to be. She is now full of love and the touching smile from the heart has intoxicated Ding Ding.
Pulling Hualan to the blacksmith shop
"Hello uncle, I'm here to see you!" After what happened a few days ago, Tintin's relationship with the blacksmith became more direct and casual.
"It's you. What do you want from me?" The NPC will definitely not chat with the player too much to avoid missing any information.
"I came to see you. Do I have to have something to ask you?" Someone was dissatisfied. His mouth was so pouty that it looked like several pounds of meat could be hung on it.
"You son, I didn't know that I accidentally leaked the information to you. I'm worried now and can't talk to you casually to avoid problems. What's the matter?" After being exposed, it seems that Comrade Blacksmith is now on guard against Ding Ding after these incidents. The system will punish him for leaking too much information and he will be deleted in serious cases.
"Don't be like that. Look, you care about me. It's never wrong to be nice to me, right? But this time I really have something to ask you. I've accepted a mission called Cultivation Biography. The second step..." He hadn't finished speaking yet.
"What did you say? Did you accept the mission of the Cultivation Transmission just now?" For some reason, the blacksmith suddenly grabbed his shoulders at an unclear speed and looked very excited.
"Ah, yes, what's wrong with you? Why are you so excited? Is there something wrong with this mission?" Tintin was startled. How could this guy be so powerful that he was so fast that I couldn't even see him. He's a master-level expert. Tintin suddenly found himself very excited.
"Cultivate, cultivate, hahaha... I didn't expect your luck to be so good hahaha..." The blacksmith's eyes seemed confused. For a master-level expert, only a very big stimulation would make him like this. Looking at Ding Ding's eyes, he seemed to see a monster, and it was not an ordinary monster. In the blacksmith's happy and confused laughter, Ding Ding felt that he seemed to be waiting for the appearance of this cultivator. It shouldn't be waiting for the person who received this task to appear. The time is not one or two days, nor one or two years. It's so short, otherwise he wouldn't be so excited. Finally, the uncle stopped.
"Would you like to hear a story?" The blacksmith, who had calmed down, began to look confused again with a hint of pain, as if he was recalling something that happened who knows how many years ago. Tintin could feel that this story must not be simple.
"I'm listening to you!" Ding Ding looked at him with a serious expression of respect. Hua Lan, who was standing beside him, remained silent. Things changed too quickly. She didn't know what to do for a moment. She was already curious about the relationship between Ding Ding and the blacksmith. The blacksmith sorted out his thoughts.
"Many years ago, so long ago that I have forgotten how many years it was. Eight young masters appeared on this continent. They each possessed a set of martial arts that shocked the world and challenged masters from all sects. However, they were very disappointed because these so-called masters never took even a single move from them. So, they all went overseas to look for the legendary top masters and never came back. Although many people asked around, no one knew where they came from and why they had such high martial arts skills. It seemed that they appeared out of thin air. Some said they were from the demon clan, and some were trained by the old missionaries.
I don't know how many years have passed. People have long forgotten these eight once invincible masters. Later, eight young masters appeared on the continent. I don't know why they are all looking for the legendary cultivator. Unfortunately, they have been looking for more than 800 years and have not found him. In these 800 years, their martial arts have long broken through the limits of the human body. Although they cannot achieve immortality, they have not died because of their human skills. However, they have not been able to break through the last level and enter the Tao through martial arts. "
At this point the blacksmith looked very sad, with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky as if he wanted to go with the wind.
"Uncle, you should be one of the eight masters later, right?" Tintin asked when he saw that the blacksmith's emotions seemed to have stabilized.
"That's right. Our masters met overseas in those years. After a great battle between four pairs of masters, they got to know each other well. Later, after discussion, they each found a successor to teach their respective martial arts. One day, our masters broke through the limits of the human body and realized that martial arts can lead to Taoism. Everything seemed so natural. They passed on what they had realized to their disciples. After they had comprehended it, they passed away at the same time due to excessive consumption of vitality." Although so many years have passed, the uncle still felt sad when he mentioned the passing of his master.
"What about this cultivation?"
"My master went out to search for this legendary cultivation back then. Unfortunately, they never encountered a cultivator until they passed away. And we have been searching for more than 800 years for my master's last wish. I never expected that in the end, you would take on this mission. We can finally practice cultivation, haha!!!"
"Uncle, have you made a mistake? I'm here to take over the follow-up task from you. You haven't found it in 800 years, so where should I go to find it?" Tintin smiled bitterly. What's going on? Is there something wrong with your brain
"The system is set up so that there won't be any mistakes. After we have been searching for more than 800 years, a destined person will appear to help us complete the opportunity we have been waiting for a thousand years. I will give you a task now. According to legend, immortal stones are supplementary items used by cultivators to absorb energy, which can greatly speed up the speed of one's own cultivation. So what you have to do now is to find an immortal stone and a cultivation book. There are no level or quality restrictions, and there is no time limit. Go quickly." The uncle was very surprised that Ding Ding ignored him after he finished speaking and went into the house, closed the door, and actually finished the task.
“… …” A moment of silence
"Lan, have you ever heard of this information? This mission is too weird!" Ding Ding was so depressed that he didn't even think about asking Lan.
"Aren't there libraries in the game? I heard from Brother Hai that there seem to be differences in these libraries. Libraries in every country are the same, but there's a library that's very special. It seems to be in a place called Tianwaitian. Let's go and look for information about Tianwaitian. Maybe the library may have it." Hua Lan remembered that Hua Hai once mentioned this inadvertently. Hua Hai was also casual at the time. He heard it from a mysterious man.
"Ah, there is such a thing. Haha. I am indeed a genius. I can always encounter such things. Let's call the young master and the others to check it out together. With this cultivation, hehe, it is written in the books that this is something that can be cultivated to become a god. Even a powerful man like uncle is thinking about cultivation. Hehe, Lan, you don't need to level up. Come find this information with me first. And there is something I think should be true for you." So exciting. Cultivation is a legend that always makes people feel mysterious and curious.
"What's the matter? You look so serious." Hua Lan stared at Ding Ding's serious expression and was very surprised. It was rare for Ding Ding to be like this.
"I guessed it as well. The first thing is that you know I live in Yuanju now. I remember the first time I went to Yuanju, I saw the words "Gulou" and I had a very strange feeling in my heart, but I couldn't get it up. The second thing was when I just entered the game. When I saw the game animation and watched the dragon and the man in white fighting, I don't know why I felt that my body seemed to have undergone some changes. I wanted to rush up and compete with them. This feeling is very strange. I feel as if I shouldn't be so weak. I should have as strong power as them."
Ding Ding paused for a moment, waiting for Hua Lan to adjust to his words.
"The third thing is Hua Hai's cultivation. Didn't he improve much faster in the game than outside? This made me feel that this game is not as simple as it seems. Although I don't have any definite evidence, I always feel that I shouldn't be like this in the game. This strange feeling was confirmed by the uncle's words just now. I guess this cultivation can not only work in the game, but also in reality."
Seeing Ding Ding insisting on expressing his views with a serious expression, Hua Lan felt uneasy. In fact, she knew the situation, but she didn't pay attention to it. She always thought it was too vague and unreal. She remembered what the patriarch of the family said to her after meeting Ding Ding:
"Lan, this boyfriend you found is not as simple as he seems. His body is very strange. It seems that there is a kind of energy sealed, but I can't see it. You must pay more attention to him in the future to prevent him from losing control and causing trouble." The clan leader was very serious at the time. Although she believed in the clan leader's words, Ding Ding had been fine and had not behaved strangely, so she forgot what the clan leader said.
Now it seems that there might be something wrong with Ding Ding's body. After thinking about it, she decided to look up some information first and then find the book.
"Then let's go look up the information now!"
"Young Master, where are you? Come back immediately. There is something very important!" Since the decision has been made, Ding Ding Mi Young Master Ding Ding believes that the young masters are all very nice people, so this matter will certainly not be missed. They heard that cultivation is lonely, and it is always a good thing to have more like-minded practitioners.
"Oh I'll be right back."
Soon they all returned.
"Ding Ding, what's the matter that you're in such a hurry to get us back? Damn you, bitch, you made us wait for so long. It turns out that there's a beauty with you. Could it be that your son has a beauty and doesn't want us anymore? Tell me the truth. How did you trick my sister-in-law into his hand?" I'm a master and I started to scold Ding Ding as soon as I came back. I'm not mentally balanced. How come no one likes me when I'm so handsome? Is it because I'm too handsome that I scared the beauty away? Well, it seems that I have to dress ugly in the future. If I keep being so handsome, when will the beauty come
