Pei Sheng's footsteps were like an arrow, flying through the winding corridors, his heart full of curiosity and anticipation for the scene that was about to be revealed. When he finally rushed out of the heavy door with his companions, he was stunned by the sight he saw - there was a dense crowd gathered outside, and it was very lively, as if the noise of the whole world had gathered here.
"This... this is too exaggerated! I didn't expect everyone to be here. The excitement is beyond imagination!" Pei Sheng's eyes widened, and his amazement was beyond words. The voice was particularly loud among the crowd, attracting the attention of the people around.
At the same time, a man in gorgeous clothes was frowning and scanning Pei Sheng and his party who had just arrived. There was both surprise and displeasure in his eyes. Obviously, he never expected that in such an environment, there would be people who could overcome many difficulties and successfully reach this place. This strength is undoubtedly a challenge to him.
However, when his eyes fell on Rodan, his displeasure was even worse. Rodan, this name is both familiar and unfamiliar to him. They were familiar because Luo Dan's reputation had already spread throughout the world; unfamiliar because they had never had a direct interaction with each other. At this moment, seeing Rodan's men and horses also appearing here, the man's mood became a little subtle, as if a huge stone was pressing on his heart, making it difficult for him to let go.
"Hey, old man, why are you two standing here and not going in? Is it not fun inside, or are you not interested in the treasures inside?" Before Pei Sheng finished speaking, he caused a burst of laughter from around him. . He shouted to Elder Tianji without hesitation, with a hint of teasing and provocation in his tone. When Elder Tianji heard this, his face turned livid, and his back molars were almost broken by his own teeth. He didn't expect that these young people would be so bold and dare to be so presumptuous in front of him.
"Humph, you ignorant kid, don't talk nonsense here! You are lucky to be here. As for the inside, it is not something that you three-legged cats can get involved in casually!" Elder Tianji's voice was low and powerful, every time Each word seemed to carry a huge weight, making the surrounding air freeze.
.
Luo Dan had no intention of getting involved in the complicated whirlpool of the struggle. His eyes transcended the turmoil in front of him and leisurely cast his eyes towards the distant sky, only to see brilliant streaks of Spiritual energy cuts through the sky like shooting stars, and every ray of light contains the mystery and power of heaven and earth. This spectacular sight touched the surging passion deep in Rodan's heart. It was an indescribable impulse, as if the call of the entire universe was urging him. Finally, he could no longer suppress the turbulence in his heart, and took a step forward resolutely, deciding to have an unprecedented contest with the vast sky. This scene made everyone watching the battle stunned. Their faces were full of disbelief, because among this group of people, only Rodan dared to do such a shocking move.
"Elder Tianji, do you think Rodan's feat will be a success that shakes the world, or will it fleeting like a meteor and eventually fall into silence?" Everyone turned their questioning eyes to that person. The old man, who was respectfully called Elder Tianji, was full of expectations and apprehension in their hearts. This is not only because Elder Tianji is an irreplaceable spiritual support in their hearts, but also because he possesses extraordinary wisdom and insight, and can spy on heaven and predict the future.
Facing the eager and expectant eyes of everyone, Elder Tianji slowly shook his head, an unprecedented trace of confusion flashed in his eyes. To him, Rodan's fate was like a fog, elusive and impossible to accurately predict. The old man knew very well that the power and temperament exuded by Luo Dan were beyond the reach of ordinary people, and his background and origins must hide unknown secrets.
For a time, various speculations and discussions about Rodan quietly spread among the crowd. They were surprised by Rodan's power, but knew nothing about his origins. Although Elder Tianji was shocked, he still maintained a calm posture. He knew very well that in front of such powerful people, any rash actions may bring unpredictable consequences. As for Pei Sheng, as the lucky man who witnessed the leap in strength of Luo Dan, the gratitude in his heart was beyond words. He seemed to see the light of hope on his long journey of cultivation. His admiration and gratitude for Luo Dan made him almost Forgot yourself.
, "All of us have underestimated Luo Dan's strength. This talented person who has emerged at a young age not only possesses outstanding talents far beyond his peers, but also has an extraordinary and tenacious heart. An indomitable heart. Imagine such a strong man with both talent and determination. , as long as fate does not unreasonably hinder him and make him fall in the middle, then for him, being promoted to that unreachable god-level realm in the future will be as easy as picking something out of a bag. "Everyone is looking at Luo Dan! In his eyes, he couldn't help but add a bit of sincere admiration and admiration.
“I originally thought that Rodan was just slightly better than us. Now it seems that our skills and knowledge are too shallow. I’m afraid that in the future, we can only stand at the foot of the mountain and look up at his incredible height. Pan's figure was so ashamed. "The voice of the speaker was somewhat self-deprecating and emotional. However, as his words slowly fell, there was no trace of dissatisfaction or jealousy around him, instead there was a deep feeling of anger. Identity and self-reflection. Rodan's power has surpassed their imagination and has become an unreachable peak in their hearts.
————————
At this moment, Pei Sheng, standing next to Luo Dan, looked at the difficult road ahead, and couldn’t help feeling a little powerless in his heart, but He still held on and said: "I seem to have reached my limit and can only stop here. However, Rodan, You don't need to worry about us, just keep moving forward and explore the unknown distance. We just take this opportunity to sharpen ourselves and improve our strength!" Pei Sheng's words revealed a sense of unyieldingness and tenacity. After hearing this, Luo Dan said, Turning to look at Pei Sheng's slightly tired but determined face, he nodded slightly. He knew that everyone's limits and endurance were different. Pei Sheng and the others had tried their best. He didn't need to say anything. He just reminded him softly: "You do what you can, don't force it. I'm waiting for you in front." Luo Dan Although his words were short, they were full of warmth and encouragement, which made Pei Sheng and others feel warm and strengthened their determination to move forward.
"Jiaolong, Jiaolong, you dare to appear in front of me in such a weak posture. Are you tired of living? You are just an insignificant distraction in my ocean of power. If I want to destroy you, I only need to flick my finger. In just a moment, you will be wiped out and you will never be able to stand up again. "Shengluo's words contain an undoubted threat. Every word is like a sharp blade, cutting the air and chilling people's hearts. However, facing Shengluo's naked provocation, Jiaolong did not show the slightest fear. Instead, its deep eyes shone with a playful light, as if it was examining the changes in Shengluo's heart.
Immediately afterwards, Jiaolong slowly took out an exquisite scroll from his arms and unfolded it gently. On the scroll, a portrait of a young man appeared on the paper. It was Luo Dan's portrait. Jiaolong's eyes wandered back and forth between Shengluo and the portrait, as if searching for some secret: "Tell me, what is the relationship between you and this person? I seem to be vaguely aware that the scars on your body are related to him. Inextricably linked "
Shengluo's eyes fell on the portrait. At that moment, his eyes seemed to be ignited, and the flame of hatred was burning in his heart. It was an unprecedentedly strong hatred, almost to the point of death. Devour him. It was him, it was all because of him that he ended up like this! Shengluo's fists were clenched unconsciously, and his knuckles turned white from the exertion, but he soon realized his gaffe, so he quickly restrained all his emotions and returned to his usual calmness and indifference.
He glanced at Jiaolong lightly, with an imperceptible sneer at the corner of his mouth, with a bit of nonchalance in his tone: "Oh? You seem to be very interested in my past? But, so what? A mere dragon deserves to know my secret? That person...hum, if I can find him one day, he will definitely pay for what he has done. It will be the worst decision in his life. "Although Shengluo's words were calm, every word revealed. There is an unquestionable determination that makes people tremble.
Elder Tianji’s eyes were as sharp as a falcon, locked tightly on the man in front of him, his eyes revealing a hint of disappointment and anger that was difficult to conceal. After careful consideration and multiple verifications, he became more and more convinced that what this man said before was all lies, and the so-called "ancient treasure" he delivered was actually just an ordinary mortal object, without any magic at all. . "Hmph, the so-called ancient treasure you presented to me is just an ordinary toy. You are trying to use it to get through. Have you really underestimated my eyesight?" Elder Tianji said with a hint of emotion. A bit of questioning and ridicule, every word is like a sharp blade, cutting through the air and the man's hypocritical mask.
When the man heard this, a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He looked at Elder Tianji calmly, without any trace of panic or guilt in his eyes. In his opinion, all this was just that Elder Tianji was too naive and believed in other people's words. What did it have to do with him?
"Elder Tianji, I have already handed that 'treasure' into your hands in accordance with the agreement and requirements between you and me. Now, you are accusing me again, saying that it is just an ordinary thing. "Isn't this a bit unreasonable?" There was a hint of helplessness and ridicule in the man's tone, as if he was reminding Elder Tianji not to forget the deal and promise between them.
He lightly shrugged and continued: "That's all I've said. If you keep pestering me, don't blame me for being ruthless. After all, we were once partners, and we were too quarrelsome to treat each other. There is no benefit." Although the man's tone was calm, the threat in it was self-evident. He knew the character of Elder Tianji and his own bargaining chip and position in this game.
————————
"As the elites of various sects, we will never tolerate someone trampling on our dignity and treating us as objects that can be bullied at will! At this moment, we must stand up and tell him with practical actions what the consequences will be if he provokes us. Miserable! "One of them shouted indignantly, his voice full of unquestionable determination and anger, like an enraged lion ready to fight for his territory.
"You're right! This guy dares to openly mock us. It's simply lawless and intolerable! Even if our strength is not the best in the sect, it is more than enough to deal with these young people. ! How can we allow our reputation to be tarnished by such clowns!" Another person followed closely and echoed impassionedly, his eyes shining with determination, as if he had seen the moment when the opponent was defeated.
The two of them shouted loudly, their words full of contempt for their opponents and confidence in their own strength. The surrounding air seemed to be infected by their aura, becoming solemn and tense. However, amidst the commotion, there was a calm bystander who silently observed all this and secretly assessed the strength gap between the two sides.
“From the words and deeds of these people, it is not difficult to see the anger and determination in their hearts. But from all angles, the opponent they regard as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh is actually far more serious than they imagined. Much stronger, whether in terms of combat skills, actual combat experience, or the mentality of remaining calm and composed in the face of adversity. They all revealed an extraordinary temperament. Unfortunately, these people did not seem to realize this. They were blinded by anger and only saw the hatred and provocation in front of them, but ignored the more important thing - their opponents. True strength. "The bystander sighed secretly, knowing that in this upcoming contest, the outcome may have been determined.
Luo Dan gently touched the tip of his nose, with a bit of ridicule and helplessness in his eyes, as if he had seen through the old man's seemingly casual but hidden deep meaning. He thought to himself: "Senior, you obviously couldn't find a more suitable candidate, so you turned your attention to me, a fledgling boy. This is not giving me an opportunity, you are clearly throwing a hot hand at me. The potato! ”
He looked up at the old man, his clear eyes flashed with a bit of confusion and doubt, and there was a wry smile in his tone: "Senior, do you want me to single-handedly break into that dragon's pond and tiger's den to settle matters?" Those troublesome guys that even the great powers of ancient times are helpless against? Are they... This is really a bit difficult!”
There was a hint of disbelief in Luo Dan’s words. He knew how difficult those guys were, and they were even intimidating to the strong men of the older generation. Although I have enough confidence in myself, I also know the importance of doing what I can. In his opinion, it is wise to fight if you can win and run if you can't. After all, although he has a certain degree of strength, he is far from being able to easily crush those ancient strong men.
————————
“Senior, you are too flattering to me. Although I, Lordan, are somewhat capable, I think I am not yet at the level where I can easily solve the problem. I am really embarrassed by your request." Luo Dan spoke again, with a hint of sincerity and helplessness in his tone. He knew the deep meaning of the old man's move, but he also knew that he could not be blind. Show off your strength.
Hearing this, the old man just smiled slightly, and that smile seemed to contain endless meaning and expectation. He patted Luo Dan's shoulder gently, as if conveying an invisible force and trust: "Luo Dan, you don't need to worry too much. Sometimes, strength is not the key to everything. Courage, wisdom and determination are the same. Important. I believe you can accomplish this seemingly impossible task." (End of Chapter)
