It was still noon, and it was already dusk. The wind raised waves that were more than a man high, but they could not blow away the thick clouds in the sky.

The clouds were dark in color, like giant rings spinning, ring after ring. Behind the massive ring clouds, a faint electric light flickered, a characteristic sign of impending snow on the Marfa continent.

The thunder roared with the roar of the sea, and something like dead wood swung towards the shore with the waves.

This is not a real piece of dead wood, but a man with scabs all over his body.

Judging from the external injuries, this deadwood man should have been burned by fire! But his thick black hair is still there, and his facial features have not been damaged, and it can be clearly seen that his eyebrows, nose, and lips are all good-looking, and he is a handsome man.

As the waves swept the man onto the beach, the first snow fell on the Marfa continent since the beginning of winter.

Meanwhile.

A stone chamber somewhere in Mengzhong Province.

The hues of the blue-gray rocks give the interior a quaint dullness, and the furnishings are simple and quirky, an hourglass and a coffin.

The hourglass made of white crystal is huge, and it is more than three meters tall in the stone chamber. There was a slight halo fluctuation on the surface of the hourglass, which was obviously blessed with some kind of magic.

As for what kind of magic it was blessed, judging by the speed at which the last quicksand at the top of the hourglass entered the bottom of the hourglass, it was so slow that it was almost stationary, and it was a time-delaying effect on something.

It's hard to imagine how much time passes with such a huge hourglass and such a slow time.

"Click!"

A crisp sound came from the top of the crystal coffin next to it.

After the top of the crystal coffin in the shape of a "human" was cracked in the middle, it naturally slipped to the ground against the edge of the coffin, and fell into purple crystals on the ground.

In the amethyst coffin lay a woman, a plain white woman with long hair and waist-length.

The moment the roof of the coffin cracked, her eyes, which had been closed, opened. In the eyes as black as jewels, there is a slightly confused luster.

The woman sat up slowly, her confused eyes became rich after looking around the stone room, and her originally pale cheeks also turned bloody, as beautiful as peach blossoms.

"Woke up as scheduled. Is the prophecy true? ”

The woman muttered to herself and walked out of the amethyst coffin. The long slumber made her speak a little unpleasant, but she still couldn't hide her crisp and pleasant voice.

"Prophecy? I've never believed in this kind of thing, and it's been a thousand years! ”

The door to the stone chamber opened, and a woman dressed in plain white entered. The latecomer is also a beauty, but her posture is inferior to the former, and she has short ear-length hair with a cold look between her eyebrows and eyes.

"Who are you?"

The long-haired woman's distant eyebrows furrowed.

"Me? Hehe! Those who can appear here are naturally your disciples and grandchildren! ”

The short-haired woman's voice was sarcastic, and with a defiant look in her eyes, she couldn't see any respect at all.

"And what do you want?"

After a short period of adaptation, the long-haired woman's voice has returned to normal. Her beautiful apricot eyes stared at the equally beautiful phoenix eyes of the short-haired woman, and the coldness in her eyes did not back down at all!

"Me? I don't want to do anything, I just want to verify that the prophecy is true. Isn't he going to take on the task of saving the world? Then I prepared two tests for him first, and if he could not withstand even those two simple tests, how could he take on the great responsibility? That means that the prophecy is not credible at all, and even if he dies, he will not be wronged! ”

The short-haired woman smiled, smiling wildly. The cruel smile and her closed mouth make people think of the tiger snake in the Valley of Vipers.

"You ......"

The long-haired woman's pretty face turned red, and her jade hand was raised and she was ready to attack!

"It's better not to do it, you just woke up from a thousand-year-old sleep, and it's not a good thing to do it at this time! Hehe, apprentice, it's all for you! ”

Seeing that the long-haired woman's anger had nowhere to vent, the short-haired woman could not hide the smugness between her eyebrows.

"What are the two tests you prepared for him?"

The long-haired woman's delicate body trembled, and the words were almost squeezed out between her teeth. can make the gentle her angry like this, just because that person is so important!

"Once for lower-level monsters, once for several lower-level people."

The short-haired woman understated it, as if dealing with these things was as simple as just blowing a breath. However, the delicate body of the long-haired woman trembled even more because of this, and her ruddy lips were bitten out of blood!

"You should know that he was injured before he appeared on the beach, at this time his injuries have not healed, not to mention, even if he is injured, his cultivation is only level seven! At this time, it is very likely that any kind of monster will kill him, and a few low-level people will be extremely easy to deal with him! Don't you think these so-called tests you have arranged are too much? ”

"Excessive? Master, I don't think so! Since you all believe in prophecy so much, I don't think he will die even if it is more difficult! ”

"It's a prophecy! In the prophecy, the seals in the ancient ruins such as the Woma Temple and the Zuma Temple are about to collapse, and at that time, the human race will be in danger of extinction, and only he can save the people from fire and water! But there is no one like you in the prophecy who will come out and make trouble! Aren't you afraid of being infamous if you do this? ”

"Infamy? I'm too lazy to care so much! In my opinion, strange people must have strange things, otherwise why should they take on great responsibilities! ”

"Or, Master, your anger has nothing to do with prophecy at all! Just worried about that person? ”

"Hehe, I heard that the ancestor did not hesitate to turn against your master because of this person! Tsk, Master, your style is really admired by the apprentices! Hahahaha......"

With a victorious gesture, the short-haired woman left the stone chamber laughing.

The anxiety on the long-haired woman's face was not alleviated by the short-haired woman's departure, and even tears had flowed down! Her misty apricot eyes looked in the direction of Beach Province, and she muttered to herself: "Wrongdoer, you must hold on!" ”

"This apprentice is a variable, I think she is coveting my current position when she deals with you like this! But I can't give her this position now, otherwise how can I assist you! By the way, I don't know if there has been any change on the Dharma Protector's side! ”

The long-haired woman seemed to grasp a little hope, and she hurriedly ran towards the stone room without bothering to wipe away her tears.

********************************

The sun was shining and a gentle breeze was blowing under the cloudless sky. Broken snow rolls over the snow with the breeze, creating the freshness and coldness of a winter morning.

It has been six days since the first snow on the Marfa continent since the beginning of winter this year. In these six days, sunny and snowy days are intertwined, like a fickle lady.

"Hey......"

A sigh came from the seashore, and it was the same man who had been dead six days before.

The man's eyes were looking at the sky at this time, and there was a thoughtful look in his starry eyes. His long, thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and he struggled to raise his palm to break through the snow layer that was only a foot thick.

"Quack ......"

The man gritted his teeth and rolled over. A simple action made him grit his teeth and did it with great difficulty, and it felt like climbing a mountain with an object heavier than himself!

"Huh...... I didn't even have any clothes on my body, so I was lying naked in the snow waiting for recovery, which was really helpless. Fortunately, it's winter, and it's a barren place, so you shouldn't be seen! Sea and Sky Blue ...... Sea and sky blue ......"

The man who turned over smiled self-deprecatingly, his eyes looking around and muttering to himself.

As a normal person, even if you don't die in such an environment, you should think of cold and hunger, which are the first crises perceived by the senses. However, this man seems to have no food and clothing!

Not only that, but what is even more surprising is that in just six days of cultivation, or in the ice and snow without food, all the scabs on his body have fallen off, and the new skin is a dizzying white!

What makes this man unusual is not only his body, but also his mind. When he first woke up three days ago, he found a helpless fact, he had amnesia!

There was a mess in my head, some things to remember, some things not to remember. And the most important of these things that do not remember is: who is he? What is it called? Where did it come from? How did he get to where he is now, etc., these things are closely related to his future.

On the day he woke up for the first time, he thought about it for a long, long time, but unfortunately he still didn't recover the lost memory in the slightest.

Today is his second awakening, after another attempt to recall to no avail, he gave up thinking, named himself "Hai Tianlan", and coldly looked around him to bear his new life.

The sun is getting stronger and stronger, and the snow is getting more and more dazzling.

However, Hai Tianlan's eyes widened suddenly, and he didn't even dare to take a breath when staring at him not far ahead! His instinct told him that there was some kind of creature of no small size under the seemingly unremarkable layer of snow!

Hai Tianlan regretted his move to turn over just now, if he hadn't turned over, he should have been well disguised by Bai Xue now. Although he has amnesia, he understands that with his current situation, any carnivorous creature can kill him!

It was like a mushroom growing under the soil layer, and in the place where the sea and sky were staring at it, something poured out from under the snow layer. A carnivorous creature that doesn't look as cute as a mushroom, with mucus dripping from its mouth, and the huge scarlet eyes of this carnivorous creature are staring at the sea and sky blue, which is half-hidden in the snow.

This is a common earth-based monster on the Marfa continent, and its name is "Toad".

The toad has only one hind leg and is always hidden in the dirt. Although the first half of its body is as large as a cow when it is exposed to the earth's surface, it has a fast crawling speed due to its affinity for earth elements! The earthy gray skin is covered with huge bumps with venomous glands inside, the wide mouth has a large amount of fishy mucus dripping from one side to the other, and the scarlet tongue the same color as the eyes swallows from time to time, which shows that it is quite coveted for human delicacy!

"Although toads are monsters, they rarely appear in winter! How could I be so unlucky! ”

Hai Tianlan complained bitterly in her heart, what should I do now!

"Crunch ......"

The sound of stepping on the snow came from under the toad's body, and the smell of death accompanied by the fishy smell slowly attacked the sea and sky blue.

Hai Tianlan was very nervous, and cold sweat slipped from the corners of his eyes and flowed between his bitten lips. is unwilling to die like this, but it is so difficult to even turn over, what effective move can he make?

Painstakingly pinched a snowball, the only thing Hai Tianlan could do was to throw the snowball into the huge mouth with all his strength to represent his struggle when the toad approached!
