The Master, in the academy.
This incident left Ning Chen shocked and speechless. A thousand years have passed, has the Master not passed away yet?
But he has never heard that anyone in the world can live for more than a thousand years, even if he is born with it.
He didn't know how many years Xiantian could live in this world, three hundred, four hundred, or five hundred years, but it definitely couldn't be one thousand years.
Moreover, the Master does not have the aura of a warrior at all. There has never been any sign that the Master has ever practiced martial arts at any time, not even a thousand years ago, nor a thousand years later.
On the other hand, the Master is really old, just like an ordinary old man in his dying years.
This feeling of being half buried in the earth cannot be deceived. He even felt that the Master could not survive ten years.
He couldn't understand that if the Master in the academy was really the Master, how did he survive these thousand years?
He could see that the Master was holding on very hard, like an ordinary old man, fighting the final battle against time and refusing to leave.
The Master What is the purpose of supporting so hard?
Ning Chen couldn't figure it out and tried to pick up the paper on the table to see what was going on. However, as soon as his hand touched it, the paper quickly turned into gray.
The Master's pen and ink made the paper resist the erosion of time, but it had reached its limit. After all, the human body was contaminated with too much of the world, and the paper, which had already reached the critical point, could no longer bear it.
Ning Chen sighed in his heart and turned to leave.
It seems that when he has time, he will go back to the academy and ask the Master personally.
"Chirp, chirp"
Suddenly, a series of shocking roars sounded in the sky, Ning Chen's face changed instantly, his figure flashed past, and flew towards the place where Little Mingyue was at high speed.
A hundred feet away, in the blink of an eye, he saw the giant ape grabbing a huge boulder and throwing it towards the sky.
In the dark sky, a huge boulder hit one of the strange birds, and a shrill scream was heard, and large pieces of feathers fell down.
However, there are too many strange birds and they are too strong. It is not possible for the giant ape to solve the problem with just one or two stones.
"Okay, you protect Little Mingyue, and leave the rest to me." Ning Chen raised his head and looked at the dark sky, narrowing his eyes slightly.
"Ugh," the giant ape responded, with a hint of fear in his expression.
"There is no future, I wasted ten years teaching the Master to you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Chen stamped his foot, turning into a silver light and rising into the sky.
The next moment, the sword light pierced the sky, drawing an ink-colored brilliance across the sky. Immediately, blood sprayed out in large areas.
Due to his innate nature, a warrior cannot stay in the air for a long time. When Ning Chen was falling, he stepped on a strange bird, rose up again, and flew towards the tallest strange bird flying in the nine heavens.
This is the strange bird he chopped before, and its feathers are still stained with blood. However, the wound has gradually healed, surprisingly fast.
"Chirp"
The leader of the strange birds in the sky screamed, and the four strange birds hovering around him immediately swooped down and crashed into the humans soaring into the sky.
"A Feihong, a sword from heaven and earth"
One transformed into thousands, thousands transformed into one. In the dazzling silver light, Ning Chen turned into a silver giant sword and penetrated the bodies of the two strange birds in one fell swoop. Ink Sword condensed frost and slashed the sky with one sword, illuminating the entire sky in an instant.
Crash, with a shocking scream of fear, one of the wings of the strange bird leader was chopped off by Ink Sword, and large swaths of blood fell like rain.
The leader of the strange bird with a broken wing could no longer hold up, screamed miserably, and then quickly fell down.
The remaining strange birds panicked and flew towards the leader in large numbers. In a panic, they supported the latter with their bodies and tried to escape in a hurry.
However, at this moment, Ning Chen's sword arrived again, stepped on the strange bird leader, and sliced open the other wing with one sword.
Blood dripped all over the dozens of strange birds below. The screams became more and more panicked, and their huge wings flapped as hard as they could, desperately trying to escape.
Ning Chen showed no mercy in his cold eyes, and the dark yellow light all over his body flickered on and off. Thick Earth Qi exploded with an extremely heavy kick, slamming down the leader of the strange bird.
The dozens of strange birds below could not bear the sudden weight. They screamed in fear and watched helplessly as their leader fell, and then crashed onto the ground.
"It's your turn"
Ning Chen snorted coldly, and used his strength to fall on a strange bird outside the order. A sword penetrated the body and penetrated directly into the back of the strange bird. The next moment, with a stroke of ink Sword One, the strange bird that was more than four feet wide was directly cut open.
Seeing this tragic situation, the other strange birds could no longer bear the fear in their hearts and fled frantically, fearing that if they escaped slower, they would be dismembered.
Ning Chen fell from the sky and did not pursue it. This warning was enough. He could not kill all the strange birds, and there was no need.
Two strange birds, one dead and one injured, the one injured was too much air coming out and little air coming in. Their wings were cut off, and they fell from such a high altitude, they would no longer be able to survive.
Beside the ancient pool, Little Mingyue was well protected by the giant ape, and not a drop of blood was stained on it. This made Ning Chen very satisfied.
"Woo"
Seeing the terrifying humans approaching, the giant ape leader not only expressed his surrender, but also showed a trace of struggle in his eyes.
The giant ape was too tall, so Ning Chen didn't pay attention. He grabbed Little Mingyue and left.
"Woo"
The wild desire finally defeated the fear. The giant ape stopped the two of them nervously and glanced at the strange bird in the distance with a look of prayer on its face.
Ning Chen stopped and frowned, not knowing why.
Little Mingyue seemed to understand a little bit. He tugged on the former's sleeve, then pointed at the strange bird and said, "It seems to want something from the big strange bird."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The giant ape nodded and responded.
Ning Chen thought for a while, walked forward with Little Mingyue in hand, raised his head and asked, "Where is it?"
The giant ape pointed at the head of the strange bird, and the look of nervousness on his face became even stronger.
"Mingyue, step back," Ning Chen said softly.
"Yeah" Mingyue took a few steps back obediently.
Ning Chen stretched out his hand and touched the head of the strange bird, and his true energy penetrated. After a moment, his eyes narrowed slightly.
There is actually a sense of spiritual energy.
"Shua"
Ink Sword took out his sheath and chopped open the strange bird's head with his sword. As the blood sprayed, a blue bead the size of a walnut flew out. Ning Chen stepped forward and grabbed it. He looked at it carefully, but didn't see anything, and then threw it to the big guy beside him.
"Take it"
"Woo"
The giant ape's nervous expression instantly changed to joy. He took the bead and immediately ate it into his mouth without saying a word.
"What is that?" Little Mingyue was disgusted and said with a strange expression.
"I don't know either," Ning Chen shook his head. He couldn't see anything special. It was like a condensation of spiritual energy. He had never heard of this thing, and the probability of its occurrence should be extremely small.
No wonder this strange bird has such a strong body, it is obviously about to become a sperm.
"Ouch"
At this moment, the giant ape suddenly looked up to the sky and roared, his entire body erupted with cyan light, and then quickly shrank.
Ten feet, eight feet, five feet...
The light became brighter and brighter, and the giant ape shrank smaller and smaller, until it was almost as high as Little Mingyue, and then gradually stopped.
After shrinking, the giant ape no longer looks so ugly and funny, but much cuter.
Little Mingyue's eyebrows suddenly blossomed with joy, and he stretched out his little hand and patted the giant ape's head. He was very surprised.
Ning Chen was a little confused, but he didn't think much about it. The Master can live for a thousand years, so what's so surprising about this little thing.
"Let's go"
Ning Chen took Little Mingyue by the hand. After such a long delay, they had to continue on their way.
Mingyue glanced at the giant ape reluctantly and followed it with small steps.
"Woo"
The giant ape grabbed the little girl's clothes and followed her.
Ning Chen stopped, frowned again, and asked, "You want to come with us?"
"Ugh." The giant ape nodded, with a worried look on his face.
Ning Chen looked at Little Mingyue and sighed in his heart, isn't it just raising a monkey? Little Mingyue can be happy.
"If you want to follow, just follow."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Chen took Little Mingyue and continued to walk away.
The giant ape was delighted and followed him.
Mingyue was in a good mood and said softly, "Let's give it a name."
"Little Huang" Ning Chen said casually.
Mingyue curled his lips, a little dissatisfied, but still accepted the name. Little Huang is just Little Huang. It's a bit unpleasant to hear, but it's easier to remember.
After the two of them left, the stone house outside the waterfall finally couldn't withstand the successive vibrations and collapsed, completely burying the traces of the Master's life inside.
The cold night was still slightly cold, and the bright moon hung high, casting cold water on the ground. After bypassing the large waterfall, there was another endless mountain range.
Qizhou Mountain Range is very big. If you want to cross it, you need to cross at least two mountains. They have just walked less than half of it.
It should be less than an hour before dawn. Little Mingyue walked for a while, then felt sleepy, and fell asleep on Ning Chen's back.
Ning Chen did not stop and continued on his way, followed by the little beast ape, taking each step slowly, not daring to disturb the sleeping little girl.
The second mountain was much larger than the first, and Ning Chen felt a little uneasy from the moment he stepped on it.
A warrior's perception is much more sensitive than that of ordinary people. This feeling is as if he is being stared at by something terrible.
He is the pinnacle of Eighth-Rank, and anything that can make him feel uneasy must at least be equivalent to a human Eighth-Rank, or even higher.
The little beast ape also became restless, looking left and right, but couldn't find anything.
Ning Chen walked forward silently, his heart becoming more and more alert. With Little Mingyue by his side, he did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
Within the Dantian Qi Sea, the silver cyclone and the dark yellow cyclone rotated at the same time, and traces of true energy overflowed, forming an invisible net around the three steps to guard against any accidents.
The restless mood of the little beast ape finally calmed down a little, and he followed behind, still looking around carefully.
After walking for more than half an hour, the high-hanging Mingyue gradually fell. The first ray of morning light was about to arrive. At the moment when day and night alternated, the surrounding world changed instantly.
In the violently shaking sky, a large crack suddenly opened, like the mouth of a giant beast, swallowing up the two people and the ape above it.
The next moment, the cracks closed with a bang, and the world returned to its original state. The cold wind blew by, and the fallen leaves flew. In the blink of an eye, all traces were covered up, as if nothing had happened...
