Chapter 48 Challenge
In the ancient hall, three old men sitting cross-legged suddenly opened their eyes that had never been opened for a long time.
"Is this voice someone stepping into the ethereal world?" One of the old men looked happy. There were too few warriors who could enter the third step. Every ten or twenty years, one or two people would enter the ethereal world. For them, there was at least a inheritance. After all, they were very old. I don't know how long they could survive.
"The sound is full of energy and very young! It seems that someone has successfully broken through." Another old man could tell the person's approximate age when he listened to the voice.
"Yeah. Yes! It's a pleasure to have such a young man on our behalf."
These three people are Yimuzi, Yun Danzi and the old man called Skinny Bamboo Pole that Gongsun Xuan had met at the time.
"This boy is so young, there should be a possibility of hitting the fourth step." The vicissitudes of the Skinny Zhugan's voice fluctuated a little. The fourth step, for those who have been staying in the third step for decades, can only sigh. Their age can no longer hit the legendary fourth step.
"Well. I think there is another person who may be able to step into that fourth step." Yimuzi said.
"You mean that boy? I can't see it." Yun Danzi shook his head and sighed.
"Well. That kid can be said to be the first place for thousands of years, just by his talent. Even the ancestor Huoyun, a thousand years ago, did not have as high talent as him. Unfortunately, he was the disciple of the old monster and would sooner or later be destroyed by the old monster."
"It may not be... yes." Yimuzi's face suddenly changed.
"Cry..." A long bird cry came from a distance.
The bird's cry changed the faces of the three of them.
"Why is he here? Isn't he going to attack the fourth step? Did he succeed?" Yun Danzi's tone trembled.
Gongsun Xuan raised his head and looked at the sky covered by clouds. His eyes seemed to be able to see the scene in it through the thick clouds and fog.
He heard the bird's cry.
This bird seemed a little different, making him feel indescribable.
He took a deep breath and compressed the air into his lower abdomen.
He raised his head and roared at the sky, "Roar." He opened his mouth and let out a roar that shook the sky.
Boom, the river water in front of him suddenly shot out more than ten feet high like a huge rock thrown in. The shrubs on both sides of the valley were even shattered by an invisible strong wind. Even the clouds on his head seemed to be stirred by an invisible big hand and actually rolled up.
"Cry..." In the sky, the bird screamed, flapped its wings a few times, and fell straight from the sky.
On his back, there was actually a black figure sitting upright on it. The sudden change made the black figure very angry and emit a cold air all over his body.
When the big bird was about to touch the ground, the black figure suddenly jumped up and used the big bird's body to resolve the fallen impact for itself. However, the big bird's body hit the cliff at a faster speed, splashing a ball of blood mist.
"Yeah!" Seeing a black figure jumping up from the big bird, Gongsun Xuan was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that the bird was actually someone else's mount. He had just been promoted to the ethereal realm. He was bored and wanted to try his skills. Then he roared to the sky to see if he could shake the bird down. He didn't expect that it would be successful. However, he didn't expect that the big bird was still hunched.
"Boy, you hurt my mount, what do you think you should do?" Suddenly, the black figure appeared ten feet away from Gongsun Xuan.
"So fast!" Gongsun Xuan was secretly surprised. The figure was just on the rock wall opposite, and in the blink of an eye, he came to him. Compared to himself, the other party's strength was much higher.
Gongsun Xuan raised his eyes and looked over, both of them were shocked. He said in unison: "It's you!"
Gongsun Xuan's face darkened and he said, "I was just about to find you, but I didn't expect you to come to your door."
"Oh. Want to take revenge? Boy, you surprised me. Last time I instilled the cold air into you, but I didn't freeze you to death. You surprised me." This black-robed figure was the old man Gongsun Xuan met when he stole the monkey wine.
Although the old man's face was still so cold, he was very surprised. He knew very well about the boy in front of him. Four months ago, he had just been promoted to the innate realm, and now he had at least entered the ethereal realm. After four months, he had been promoted to the first level, and the speed was too fast! He knew very well that it was not so easy to break through to this third step. He was considered extremely talented back then, and it took him twenty years to enter the third step. At that time, he was seventy years old. The boy in front of him who had been ignored was only fifteen years old, and he had already entered the third step. Fifteen years old, ethereal realm, what is this concept?
It is difficult for a warrior to open his own meridians. Especially as the older he is, the more difficult it is to open his meridians. This is also the reason why martial arts are very difficult to practice.
Gongsun Xuan's body, after being baptized by the thunder, had all the meridians in his body long ago been opened. Moreover, his body was tempered to a very terrifying level.
Furthermore, Gongsun Xuan had adventures in these four months, and his skills improved by leaps and bounds, and it was certain that he entered the ethereal realm.
Gongsun Xuan quickly restrained his breath, his eyes were like two sharp swords, and he looked straight at the old man, and said in a plain tone: "For your blessing, not only did I not be frozen to death last time, but my skills increased greatly."
"The skill has increased greatly?" The old man was a little confused, but he woke up quickly. "That's right, the cold air contains a lot of my true energy. If you refine it, you will indeed benefit a lot."
"But I'm very surprised, how did you hold on? I'm very curious about this, so you go back with me and let me study how it is?" A trace of greed appeared in the old man's eyes, as if Gongsun Xuan's body was like a treasure.
"It depends on whether you have the ability." Gongsun Xuan's tone was still so plain. As the conversation between the two, his breath became more and more restrained, and his whole body seemed to be about to merge with the world.
The old man stood there like an iceberg, with a cold air all over his body. The temperature in the valley dropped by more than ten degrees instantly due to his arrival.
"Haha, do you think you can challenge me by taking the third step? I will let you see what strength is." A dark smile appeared on the old man's gloomy face. He was so old that he was only skinny and bones left. The squirming of his face felt very gloomy and terrifying.
"I really look forward to how strong your so-called strength is." Gongsun Xuan was very indifferent. At this moment, his mood was very peaceful. Since childhood, he was instilled by Old Man Han. When fighting, no matter what kind of enemy he was, his mentality must be calm. Only when his mentality is calm can there be no mistakes in the battle, so that his opponents can take advantage of it.
If it were in the past, Gongsun Xuan might not be able to remain calm, but in the past four months, his heart has been shaken by Pangu's strength, and he has been pursuing his steps in his heart. He has become much more determined in his heart.
There was a sense of fighting in the air, and under the cover of this sense of fighting, the surroundings became silent. Even the rumbling sound of the waterfall was far away from the two of them.
