The tall, thin man with dark skin suddenly became interested.
There was a sincere color in his originally calm eyes, like a child seeing a beloved toy. Anyone who saw such a look would fall in love with it.
The man glanced at Gordon, who was twitching on the ground, and subconsciously kicked him away, throwing him into the endless void outside.
But soon, some wonderful thoughts suddenly came to him.
Snapping his fingers, the half-disabled Gordon was immediately enveloped in a burst of colorful colors, and together with the "Crane's Ming Nine Chapters Secret Sutra" beside him, they were swept away by the colors and disappeared.
"Don't worry so much, I just suddenly thought of some interesting developments. The story also needs twists and turns, right?"
The man looked at the patch of land.
Lu Tan didn't answer..
From the moment the man appeared, Lu Jian clearly felt that this guy was of very high status.
In fact, neither Fang Geng, who was sleeping in this empty temple, nor the Old One, who was bound by the black hole in a distant foreign land, were worth mentioning in comparison with this man.
The Old One beyond the Old One.
God above gods.
If I had known earlier, I should have tasted myself first.
Lu Tan thought.
"Don't worry, because of your efforts, I am not going to release Him this time, because I think the current situation is quite interesting."
The man's tone became lively, as if he had found some interesting toy.
"You also have a strange smell, tsk tsk. It seems that the connection between us is more than that."
The man poked Lu Tan's flesh with his hand.
“The touch is okay.”
He smiled, showing his white teeth, which contrasted with his dark skin.
Lu Jian felt that the other person's skin was no different from that of a human being.
But through contact, part of the knowledge flowed into Lu Jian's melting brain.
Noisy murmurs sounded, making Lu Tiao excited.
"However, I will give you a little punishment for ruining my good deeds."
The man smiled, and it was hard for anyone not to be moved by that frank smile.
He immediately turned into a streak of colorful colors and disappeared into this space.
Lu Tiao was boiling and gradually crawled towards the outside of the temple.
He didn't know how to leave here, and he didn't have the strength. What he saw and heard just now was enough to kill Lu Tiao a dozen times. It was only because of the man's compassion, or the mentality of watching a show, that Lu Tiao survived.
A feeling worse than life lingered around Lu Tan's body.
He felt that his consciousness was blurred. Maybe in the next moment, he would become blind and stupid like the bound Old One and lose all will.
...
Jiangcheng Mountain, on the way down the mountain.
The earthquake continued and became more severe, startling countless birds.
The city of Jiangcheng was in chaos. People were running away frantically, praying for God's blessing. The sounds of crying children, barking dogs, and the collision of vehicles were endless.
And on this mountain road, Du Ming, who was driving a foreigner's car, was also sweating profusely.
"We can't run away from this, the earthquake is almost catching up with us."
He cursed and stepped on the accelerator, bumping along the way.
Boom——
Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the front, and Du Ming slammed on the brakes.
The tires made a screeching sound against the ground. The vehicle finally stopped, but found that the ground in front of it was cracked, the road was split in the middle, and there was an abyss underneath. It was impossible to see what the situation at the bottom of the valley was like. The area further ahead,
Let alone exploring it in the future, it will probably completely collapse.
"Can't drive anymore."
Du Ming said something and backed up a distance to prevent the ground from sinking.
"Is there another way down the mountain?"
Master Qi asked.
"Yes, there is, but you have to go around a long way."
Du Ming replied, he looked at the top of the mountain again.
"Are you still worried about him?"
He Chong saw Du Ming's worries.
"Is it really okay if we just leave like this?"
Du Ming got out of the car and said while checking the situation.
"We, all of us at such an old age, can't bear to leave everything to a junior and let him take the lead?"
After hearing Du Ming's words, Qi Ye hesitated.
"But Brother Du, what can we do? Although my family is called Moving Mountains to Seek Dragons, they are just tomb robbers. Faced with this situation, there is nothing we can do."
he explained.
This is also the reason why everyone present chose to leave just now.
They can't do anything.
In this disaster, their superpowers are just three-legged cat skills and cannot be brought to the stage at all.
A sense of powerlessness and despair enveloped them.
"No, maybe there is some way."
The blind man Zhang who was sitting in the car behind got out of the car and murmured.
"Didn't he say that Lord Xuan can suppress the monsters in this mountain? As long as we become Lord Xuan or get his power, we can help him."
"You mean, we go to the top cave to obtain the secret of Xuanjun?"
Qi Ye was a little timid.
"But without the token, we can't enter there, right?"
Shi Buwen said in a deep voice.
"It's not impossible."
At this time, Tang Que suddenly spoke.
"Everyone, don't you think that the previous rounds of competitions are actually getting closer to Lord Xuan step by step?"
Tang Que's words made several people think. After a moment, He Chong was the first to react.
"Those competitions are for us to use various methods to bypass the restrictions and finally reach Xuanjun's residence?"
An inspiration seemed to flash in his mind, spreading like sparks and igniting the dark night sky.
"We can use our skills to break through Xuanjun's restrictions and enter his residence!"
Thinking of this, he hesitated again.
Jiangcheng Mountain now is not only in the center of an earthquake and extremely dangerous, but there are also unspeakable monsters and the possible existence of ancient evil gods.
No one would choose to go up the mountain now.
Moreover, they had already escaped, there was no need for them to go back for a slim hope.
He also has a wife, children, and a peaceful and warm life.
There was no reason for him to stand here and try to save this.
But some kind of fiery emotion ignited in He Chong's chest.
When he was young, due to his yin and yang eyes, he could always see some unclean things, so he was ostracized, ridiculed, and bullied.
He Chong once asked his father why he was like this and what the purpose of these eyes was.
His father only said that this was a talent and a blessing, but He Chong didn't understand it at all at that time.
But later, He Chong experienced a lot, and after he used these eyes to help many people, he could finally understand.
There are many moments in a person's life.
Happy, sad, miserable, difficult, relaxing, joyful.
But there is also a kind of moment that makes people feel a sense of emotion, lamenting that here and now, who else could I be?
It was like a general in battle heard the trumpet behind him, like a tired doctor who had just revived a dying man, and like now, He Chong was standing on Jiangcheng Mountain.
This is a kind of destined moment. At this moment, achieving destiny becomes everything, just like the nine-rate skills that originated from ancient times and have been handed down for a long time seem to be just to create miracles at this moment.
The subtle connection between history and destiny made He Chong stand up. Although he knew it was impossible, He Chong still hoped that someone in future generations could remember this moment and his choice.
