Chapter 68: Visiting Tonghu (1)
"Teacher Tong Hu, practicing is too hard!" Ruo Lan replied with a bitter face.
The old man said earnestly: "Payment and gain are always directly proportional. If you don't pay, how can you get gain?"
"Now, the earth is in turmoil and evil gods are raging. It is the time for the Holy Land to employ people."
"If you don't concentrate on your cultivation and work hard to improve your strength, how can you fight against those many evil people and protect the justice and peace of this land!"
After hearing this earnest instruction, Ruolan finally did not dare to refute the old man's kindness in person, so she had no choice but to nod her head.
"Well, I remember it, Teacher Tong Hu!"
Seeing how reluctantly she agreed, Tong Hu couldn't say anything more and felt extremely complicated.
Then, he looked at Yin Qi next to him and said, "I haven't seen a junior as talented as you in a long time!"
He could tell at a glance that Yin Shiqi's strength was far superior to Ruo Lan's, reaching the silver level.
More importantly, Yin Shiqi looks younger than Ruo Lan.
It is rare to see such a hard-working and talented junior.
"Teacher Tong Hu, thank you for your praise. Compared with the seniors of the Zodiac, I am still far behind." Yin Shiqi lowered his head and replied.
"Hahaha--"
Hearing this, Tong Hu laughed loudly, and his hearty laughter even overshadowed the impact of the waterfall, and the shock spread to the foot of the mountain, attracting the side glances of the trainee fighters in the training camp at the foot of the mountain.
"Teacher Tong Hu is smiling so happily. Is this because he has encountered something happy?"
"That's right? I haven't seen Teacher Tong Hu so happy for a long time!"
…
Everyone was talking a lot.
On the Wulao Peak, Tong Hu stopped laughing after a long time, looked at Yin Shiqi and nodded: "Aiming for the Golden Saint, very good, very good!"
Although Saint Seiyas are divided into bronze, silver, and gold, in fact, both bronze and silver belong to the realm of the sixth sense.
As long as you work hard enough, it's only a matter of time before you can upgrade from bronze to silver.
But in the face of those evil gods who are disturbing the earth, only the golden saints with the seventh sense can be regarded as true combatants.
Bronze and silver can't really help much other than clearing out miscellaneous soldiers.
Therefore, the Sanctuary places special emphasis on cultivating gold-level combat effectiveness.
Unfortunately, it is too difficult to comprehend the seventh sense, which has led to the vast majority of saints to only focus on the realm of the sixth sense and not to make progress.
It is really rare for young people like Yin Shiqi to have the courage to use gold as their goal.
What's more important is that the other party does have that kind of talent and is a good prospect who can grow to the gold level.
"Your teacher should be Shura from the Capricorn Palace, right?" Sensing the sharp little cosmic aura in Yin Shiqi's body, Tong Hu asked with a smile.
Such a small universe is so similar to Capricorn Shura.
Yin Shiqi shook his head and said softly: "I'm not sure, because I haven't seen the true appearance of the senior who taught me."
"Moreover, he told me when he left that only when I understand the seventh sense can I be qualified to call him a teacher!"
"The seventh sense?" Tong Hu thought thoughtfully.
He was almost certain that the one who taught Yin Qi was Capricorn Shura.
But he couldn't figure out why Shura was still secretive when teaching his disciples, and why he set such a harsh condition for recognition.
The seventh sense is a necessary condition to become a Golden Saint!
Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Tong Hu's heart.
"Could it be that..."
"What?" Seeing the old man saying to keep half, Ruolan blinked and asked curiously.
Tong Hu glared at the girl and said calmly: "You will know in the future!"
Unfortunately, the more the old man didn't want to say anything, the more curious Ruolan became, feeling as uncomfortable as a cat scratching his head.
But considering Tong Hu's identity, she didn't dare to mess around, so she could only bury her curiosity deep in her heart.
"How is the situation in the sanctuary recently?" Not wanting to delve further into this matter, Tong Hu changed the subject and looked at the two of them and asked.
“Not very good!”
Yin Shiqi looked serious and said solemnly: "In recent years, the followers of evil gods on all continents have become much more active, and the casualties of saints have increased accordingly. Even the silver saints have begun to fall."
Although Bronze and Silver are in the same realm, there is still a big gap in their actual combat capabilities.
Especially when the Gold Saints are not easily dispatched, the Silver Saints represent the Holy Domain's highest combat power to the outside world.
What's more, all the twenty-four Silvers in the Sanctuary have not yet returned to their places, and the number is not large. Every loss of one is a great loss.
This situation is really not reassuring.
"Has even silver begun to fall? This holy war is probably more dangerous than the last time!" Tong Hu sighed deeply as if remembering the past.
"The last holy war?"
Ruolan was stunned for a moment and said suspiciously: "Teacher Tong Hu, have you participated in the last holy war?"
Although she knew that Tong Hu was very old, she could not believe that Tong Hu was actually a survivor of the last jihad.
In terms of the lifespan of a mortal, living to be over a hundred years old is already the limit.
But the last holy war was more than two hundred years ago.
"Uh...didn't I tell you?" Tong Hu asked in surprise.
"No!" Ruolan replied firmly.
"Maybe I forgot!" Tong Hu laughed.
He has lived on Wulao Peak for more than two hundred years. Day after day, year after year, he has too many memories and there are some deviations. It is not surprising at all.
Next to her, Chunli pursed her lips and smiled softly, and said to Ruolan: "Grandpa, he is the Libra Golden Saint in the last holy war, and he is also the current guardian of Libra Palace."
As a granddaughter, she remembers her grandfather's glorious past very clearly.
"No! Doesn't that mean that Teacher Tong Hu has lived for more than two hundred years?" Ruolan was stunned.
"That's right, that's right!"
Tong Hu smoothed the white beard under his chin and said with a smile: "I was ordered by the goddess of the previous generation to guard the sealed underworld warriors here for more than two hundred years."
Hearing this, Chunli and Ruolan were both shocked.
This was the first time they heard that there was a sealed underworld warrior hidden in Mount Lu.
"Teacher Tong Hu... It's not good to tell us such an important secret..." Ruo Lan said anxiously after glancing around nervously.
Tong Hu did not answer, but looked at Yin Qi who was calm and said with a smile: "What do you think of this matter, young Jujue?"
Just now, when the three of them were going up the mountain, he burned the small universe and eavesdropped on the conversation of the three of them remotely.
Thus, Yin Shiqi’s identity was known.
"There is only one reason, and that is that Teacher Tong Hu doesn't care about being heard by us!" Yin Shiqi replied seriously.
"I don't care? What does this mean?" Ruolan was still confused.
