Hearing what Sect Master Xiao said, Xu Zimo shook his head slightly.
Replied: "Do you believe me when I say I'm 100% sure?"
"I don't believe it, no one dares to have such strong self-confidence," said Sect Master Xiao, shaking his head.
"You know about the opening of the sect's cave of life and death, right?"
"I just learned about it," Xu Zimo nodded.
"Let's go have a adventure," said Sect Master Xiao.
"I'm not very interested in that place," Xu Zimo replied.
"This is not what I meant, it was what the ancestor meant," Sect Leader Xiao replied.
Hearing Sect Leader Xiao's words, Xu Zimo was slightly stunned.
It seems that these ancestors are still very concerned about their holy son.
Xu Zimo even felt that this life and death cave was opened specifically for him.
He nodded slightly and said, "I will go."
Then Sect Master Xiao asked some more questions, and after confirming that Xu Zimo had no problem, he let Xu Zimo leave.
Just as he walked out of Tianyuan Peak, a cold voice from behind suddenly called out to Xu Zimo.
"Wait a minute," Meng Chenxue came from behind.
"Is something wrong?" Xu Zimo turned around and glanced at the other person, asking doubtfully.
There wasn't much interaction between the two of them, and they hadn't seen each other since the last time they were defeated by one of his swords.
"Fight with me," Meng Chenxue suddenly said.
"It makes no sense," Xu Zimo replied.
"Why should I fight you?"
"I want to see how big the gap is between us today," Meng Chenxue said.
Xu Zimo shook his head slightly.
Before he could reply, Meng Chenxue had already come over to kill him with a long sword.
The long sword split into dozens of afterimages, and the sword aura was fierce.
Although the momentum was not very strong, the sword energy was so sharp that it shattered the surrounding space.
Xu Zimo clenched his hands and waved his big hand, annihilating all the sword shadows.
Before Meng Chenxue could use his next move, Xu Zimo was a little tired of this boring battle.
He directly hit Meng Chenxue hard in the abdomen with his right hand.
Her whole body flew out uncontrollably.
"Do you still want to fight for destiny?" Xu Zimo asked.
After Meng Chenxue fell to the ground, she struggled to stand up.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he replied: "Although the sect only cultivates one person, the Holy Son, who doesn't yearn for destiny.
If I have that kind of strength, I naturally want to give it a try.”
Her face looked a little gloomy, she was defeated too quickly.
Although she had been practicing hard during this period, unfortunately she still couldn't sustain even one move.
"You are a monster," Meng Chenxue said.
"Among my peers, I have never seen anyone as strong as you."
"Do you know why you lost?" Xu Zimo said with a smile.
"Why?" Meng Chenxue frowned slightly and looked at Xu Zimo.
"You are like a raised canary, following the sect master all day long.
This is not the path that a strong person should take. Even if your level has improved, your state of mind is still far from the same.
To put it simply, you don’t have a strong heart.”
Xu Zimo said: "And you have been taught by the sect master, but even the sect master is not my opponent, how can you fight?"
After Xu Zimo finished speaking, he ignored the thoughtful Meng Chenxue.
After walking down from Tianyuan Peak, Lin Ruhu was waiting for him below.
……………
"Brother Zimo, what does the sect master want from you?" Lin Ruhu asked curiously when he saw Xu Zimo returning.
"He wanted me to go to the Cave of Life and Death," Xu Zimo said.
"Then it is estimated that the ancestor of the sect wants to see you, so I will accompany you," Lin Ruhu said.
"Forget it, go take a look," Xu Zimo nodded.
The Cave of Life and Death is located in the innermost part of the back mountain of Zhenwu Shengzong.
Usually this area is a restricted area and no one is allowed to enter.
However, after the Cave of Life and Death is opened during this period, the core disciples of the major elders can also enter it.
Although it is already late autumn, winter is not far away.
But the mountain behind seems to be shrouded by a mysterious force. It is like spring all year round, lush and green, with trees growing luxuriantly all over the mountains and plains.
Like a deep green ocean.
Follow the path in the back mountain and keep going inside.
A Tianhe River crosses from the north. The water is crystal clear and flows magnificently.
There are many water monsters living in this river.
There are circling giant pythons and thousands of years old turtles lying on huge river pebbles basking in the sun.
There is also a monster with a fish head and human body walking holding a steel fork.
In short, the creatures in this river live here and become part of the Tianhe River.
It is said that the Tianhe River was left behind by Emperor Zhenwu who intercepted an ancient river.
River water is very precious and special.
Seeing Xu Zimo walking by, the ten-thousand-year giant tortoise looked at him lazily and ignored him.
Xu Zimo walked across the Tianhe River, and a narrow canyon appeared directly in front of him.
This canyon is like a line of sky.
The passage is so narrow that it can only accommodate one person.
"Have you ever been in the Cave of Life and Death?" Xu Zimo looked at Lin Ruhu and asked.
"No, my grandfather said I'm still far behind," Lin Ruhu said.
"Let me grind."
The two walked into this line of sky and walked in this narrow passage for about five minutes.
The view ahead began to broaden, and crowds of people appeared all around.
Seeing Xu Zimo appear, the originally noisy surroundings suddenly became silent.
"The Holy Son is back," someone said with an embarrassed look.
"It's such a coincidence that I'm coming back at this critical moment," another disciple said coldly.
"But he may not be able to break through this hole of life and death."
"Holy Son," the people around him still reluctantly greeted him.
After all, they are all the proud figures of the sect, and they will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable if they are pushed above them.
"Why didn't you go in?" Xu Zimo asked with a smile.
This life-and-death cave is located in the hinterland of the canyon. It looks like an upside-down bowl.
It is oval in shape and surrounded by landslides.
Directly ahead, there are two dark and necessary openings.
There is a cave with "生" written on it. Looking from the outside, one scene after another is reflected inside.
Flowers bloom, plants and trees are born, and everything grows vigorously.
On the other hand, "Death" is written on the entrance of another cave. There is deathly silence inside, and both flowers and trees are reaching the end of their lives.
It began to wither, decay, and eventually became a pile of rotten dead wood, decomposed in the air.
"They were all sent out," Xiang Qianheng said with some embarrassment.
Looking at Xu Zimo's confused look.
The cold expression of Jian Twenty-one next to him softened slightly, and he said: "It is useless to rely on strength here. Only by truly understanding the mystery of the life and death cave can we enter."
"The Holy Son is unparalleled, why not go in and give it a try?" Some people nearby said with a smile.
"Yes, the Holy Son is so strong, he will definitely not be sent out." Others agreed.
Seeing these people wearing high hats on themselves, Xu Zimo smiled.
