Chapter 1: Eight Desolations and Six Combinations
Severe winter. On the northern land of the Xuanhuang Continent, the cold wind is howling, and the goose-feather-like snow is flying one after another, and the ground is full of white as far as the eye can see, like a magnificent land covered in silver.
A little boy of eleven or twelve years old came from the entrance of the village, limping along, wearing only a thin patched gown. The little boy shivered because of the cold to the bone. His face was blue and swollen, as if he had fought fiercely with someone.
What is surprising is that in such bad weather, there is not the slightest timidity and fear in his eyes.
The little boy came to a stone bridge outside the entrance of the village and climbed into the hole. For him, it was the only place where he could hide from the wind and snow.
Half an hour passed.
Another person walked from the other direction of the village. It was an unkempt man named Hanako, who couldn't see his age clearly, but his eyes were red and blue on one side, which was daunting!
"Hey, I'm always called Hua, don't you have a place to go? Then come up and squeeze, it's too windy and snowy now. The little boy did not fall asleep because of the warmth in the bridge, and he saw the old flower from a long distance. In his mind, the cold wind was cold, the snow was falling, and he came out to beg for food, he should also be a poor man. It's just that he didn't notice that the old man didn't have the necessary tool for calling flowers in his hands - a bowl!
Hanako raised her head and smiled playfully. The two eyes glowed red on one side and blue on the other, "Little Flower, aren't you afraid of me?"
"Why should I be afraid of you? because of your eyes?" said the little boy, smiling proudly, "I am young, but I am bold. Even if the demon comes to me, I dare to pluck a few hairs from its mouth! Also, my name is not Huazi, I have a name! My name is Yang Kai! You have to remember my name, maybe in ten years you will be proud to know me!"
"Interesting! It's funny!" the old man laughed, and the laughter was extremely loud, like a Hong Zhong Da Lu, deafening!
"Really, why are you laughing so loudly? If you want to avoid the wind and snow, hurry up. If you don't dodge, leave and don't make noise here!" Yang Kai shouted dissatisfiedly.
Lao Yuhua put away her smile, but she didn't get angry. I didn't see how he moved under his feet, but his body floated up like a gust of wind, Yang Kai only felt that for a moment, the old flower had already arrived in the bridge cave, and there was a voice, "It's really much warmer, hey, Yang Kai kid, you are very smart, you actually know how to stuff thatch on the other side of the bridge cave to block the wind and snow." ”
Yang Kai didn't answer the old name, but his eyes widened for a long time before he said, "It turns out that you are a cultivator!"
"You know cultivators?" the old man sat down.
"Of course I do! I heard a fortune teller say it last year. He said that cultivators can fly high and high, and they can fly to the sky. Some of them can also travel through the world to slay demons and eliminate demons..."Yang Kai shook his head and recounted the things he had heard from the fortune teller, looking smug, as if these things were originally known to him, and he didn't feel ashamed at all.
"Hahaha... You're such a funny kid. I've walked over thousands of mountains and waded through thousands of rivers, and I haven't seen anyone who hasn't dodged when they meet me, but you, this kid, still brags to me in a fake way. Tell me, why did you say that I would be proud to know you in ten years?"
"Oh, you ask this, what good will it give me? I can't say it in vain, right?" Yang Kai said with squinted eyes.
"You said it first, there will definitely be benefits, and you won't be allowed to say it in vain. ”
"It's okay, although you are old and ugly, and your eyes are red and blue, you are also a little kind. I'll tell you..."
Yang Kai moved his thin body slightly, and took off the pair of cloth shoes on his feet that had several holes in them.
He lifted his feet and pointed at the old flower. There are three black moles on each foot, arranged side by side, forming a round arc.
Yang Kai smiled proudly, "Have you seen it, the fortune teller said that this is stepping on [***], born rich and noble, seeking officials must be ranked among the third princes, and learning art will be proud of nine days." ”
Lao Minghua's expression suddenly became a little weird, and his eyes suddenly became red-blue. He stretched out his hand violently and quickly grabbed Yang Kai's wrist. Yang Kai was so anxious that he scolded angrily, but the old flower still went his own way, twisted Yang Kai's body again, and tore Yang Kai's clothes, only to see a golden mark on his back, like an angry dragon soaring above the Eight Desolations.
The old flower suddenly shook off Yang Kai's arm and said with a wicked smile, "You still boast of being rich and noble, but you don't know that your life will not live for twenty!"
"Fart!" Yang Kai was suddenly furious, hurriedly put on his ragged clothes, and yelled at Lao Zhaohua, "You old Hua, you are rude! I kindly let you come up to avoid the wind and snow, you are good, you tore up the only piece of Lao Tzu's clothes!"
"My life is almost gone, and I don't care about any clothes. You're too ignorant, boy!" said Old Flower, sneering contemptuously.
"You are ignorant! The fortune teller says that I am rich and noble, but do you know more than the fortune teller?"
"Of course! What kind of thing is a fortune teller? Dare to brag in front of my old evil?" The old man said that Hua was even more contemptuous in his eyes, "Let me tell you, you are not just stepping on [***], you also have a true dragon of the Eight Desolations on your body, and you are born with the destiny of the Eight Desolations! Wealth is rich, but you are too rich and you are jealous! This life is destined to have a bad fate, and you will lose your father and mother in your early years, and you will suffer a lot of suffering and humiliation. If you don't wait to enjoy your wealth, you will die in misery. ”
"Really?" Yang Kai saw that Lao Zhaohua was talking about things, and he even knew the loss of his father and mother in his early years, and he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and he was also suspicious.
"Of course it's true! I have been to the ghost realm, stayed in the Buddha realm, molested demon girls, slaughtered demon kings, and went up to the heavens for 500 years, and went down to the earth for 5,000 years. Is it necessary to brag to you here?" Old Minghua smiled coldly, and a terrifying arrogance on his body flashed away. At that moment, the entire bridge seemed to be frozen.
"Since you know 500 years and 5,000 years, you should know how to save me, right?"
Yang Kai asked.
"There's only one way!"
"What?"
"Worship me as a teacher!"
The wind and snow are gradually weakening. Under the stone bridge, Yang Kai and Lao Zhaohua stood side by side, facing the village in front of them.
Yang Kai suddenly knelt on the ground and knocked his head three times, and spit three more mouthfuls of saliva after getting up. Seeing that the old man was amazed, he asked Yang Kai, why is this?
"Master, this is Liushu Village, my parents are buried on the mountain at the east end of the village, and I knocked on them with three rings! But Fang Wude, the old rich man in the village, and his son Fang Shanhe often humiliate me and let people beat me every day! That is my enemy, and the three mouthfuls of saliva are directed at them, and they will definitely get it back!"
"Hahaha...... Okay! Interesting! Kind! Let's go!"
The wind and snow suddenly became strong again, and the two sloppy figures, one old and one young, gradually disappeared in the wind and snow. For Willow Village, the loss of a Yang Kai may not be a big deal, at most, the rich man Fang Wude and his son will be surprised, after all, without a playful little beast, life is naturally boring.
Six years later.
At the foot of the barn mountain in the south of the Xuanhuang Continent, in front of a thatched hut, a young man in white was lying cross-legged on the ground with a fierce head on his head.
Circles of strange light emanated from him. The five colors of golden light, black light, purple light, red light, and cyan light are intertwined but distinct. In the dream-like dream, it is full of five kinds of breath: domineering, weird, noble, demonic, and ethereal, as if the five-colored light originally represents five different exercises!
Ordinary people don't have enough time to practice one exercise, and besides, five completely unrelated exercises need to absorb five completely different kinds of vitality into the body, which is an extremely dangerous thing. How can this young man be so wicked? How dare he defy the condemnation of the world?
Suddenly, a strange man came out of the hut. This strange man had red eyes and blue eyes, and it was obviously the strange man who took Yang Kai away from Willow Village a few years ago. The young man in front of the thatched hut who looked handsome and cold, with an evil aura in the coldness, and the young man who exuded fearlessness and fearlessness in the evil aura was Yang Kai!
Yang Kai just finished his efforts and stood up. His expression suddenly felt a little weird. Master Lao Xie seems to be a little wrong today, and there is a faint heavy taste.
After six years of cultivating with this old evil, Yang Kai understood the old evil, he vaguely knew what this kind of heaviness meant, and he couldn't help but have some mixed feelings in his heart.
"Boy Yang, come here!" the old evil shouted.
Yang Kai walked over, shouted master, and stood beside him.
"Count it, you've been practicing with me for six years, you're already eighteen! Time flies, time flies! In the past six years, I have taught you five kinds of exercises! The Desolate Dragon True Technique comes from the Dragon Realm, and you have practiced to the third level; the Xuanyin Ghost Qi Technique comes from the Ghost Realm, and you have also practiced to the third level; the Wenchang True Technique comes from the Heavenly Official Realm, and you still need to work hard to cultivate to the second level; the Heavenly Demon Slayer Divine Technique comes from the Demon Realm, the most demonic and changeable, and you have refined to the third level, and the Ling Xuan Immortal Method belongs to the orthodox Immortal Cultivation Technique, which comes from the Ling Xuan Immortal Sect, you have gained the most and entered the fourth level, in general, the thirteenth realm of the Heavenly Position, you have barely entered the fourth realm, and you can be regarded as a little powerful, so it is time for you to leave, after all, I have nothing more to teach you...”
"Master..." Yang Kai's heart was extremely heavy, although the separation had been expected for a long time, but at this moment, there was always a sour feeling.
"There is no feast in the world! You don't have to be sad! It's just that before you leave, I want to explain you a few things, and you must keep it in mind!"
Yang Kai's face was straight, and he listened quietly.
"First, the reason why you can surpass ordinary people and cultivate various exercises at the same time to accommodate all kinds of vitality is because of the innate self-respecting dominating ability of the Eight Desolation [***] veins in your body! In the future, try not to let people know your secret. ”
"Second, six years ago I said that you would not live more than twenty, and that was not nonsense. It's that you've been cursed! A curse called life-breaking! Although you've cultivated and made breakthroughs in the heavenly realm, you can extend your lifespan, but you can't be trapped by a curse for the rest of your life, and the only way to unlock this curse is to find the curse realm!"
"Third, don't reveal my existence to a third person at any time! Once it is revealed, you will have nowhere to go in the world!"
"Fourth, take this piece of jade to the Lingxu Immortal Sect to find Qingshan Zhenren, and tell him that you are a registered disciple of Qingyu Zhenren... Please ask Aoyama to officially accept you as a beginner. ”
The old evil handed Yang Kai a piece of white jade, and the jade was carved with rising clouds, and there was a figure in the clouds and mist that stepped on the green clouds and flew up for nine days.
"Master... I want to know..."
"Don't ask!" Old Evil seemed to know what Yang Kai was going to ask, but he interrupted directly with a wave of his hand, "It doesn't mean anything to know my name, if you and I meet again one day, I hope everything will be as it was!"
The old evil suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, the laughter penetrated the nine heavens, but it was full of desolation. In the laughter, the old evil walked away step by step, drifting away.
Yang Kai held the white jade in his hand and looked at the figure of the old evil gradually disappearing, and he was stunned, and a bitterness hit him in his heart. In the past six years, the old evil has taken care of him like his father, and his sudden departure is really difficult for him to accept, and his eyes have moistened before he knows it.
