There is a majestic and huge snow mountain on the southwest side of Yunling Province. This snow mountain is the location of the ancient religion Tianlei Palace.
Tianlei Palace, Longyang Temple, and Shangjing University are jointly listed as the three major physical arts holy places of the human race, and their status is very high.
It’s just that the disciples of Tianlei Palace rarely enter the world, so they are not very famous, but no one dares to underestimate its strength, because the last saint of Tianlei Palace was only incarnate for more than ten years, and the saint has his own unique inheritance system, such as No accident, a new saint will be born soon.
Practitioners of ancient religions focused on ascetic cultivation and specifically sought out places with harsh living conditions to hone their body and mind. This is deeply rooted in the evolution of species. Therefore, the strength of ascetic monks is far superior to that of ordinary physical practitioners.
There are no luxurious buildings in Tianlei Palace. The disciples are scattered all over the snow-capped mountains and take care of all their own food, clothing, housing and transportation. Except for the stone buildings used to store classics, they all use gravel or ice to build houses on the snow-capped mountains as shelter.
On a snowy mountainside, a woman in white stood beside a simple stone house, with a corpse in front of her.
There was also a skinny lama wrapped in a robe standing outside the house. The cold wind was howling, but he always avoided them.
The woman raised the dagger in her hand, and a trace of light flashed. On the dagger, there were faint figures of tiny figures struggling in pain, with ferocious faces.
She seemed to want to take action against the body, but hesitated when she was in mid-air.
"Why don't you let me do it for you?" the skinny lama said.
The girl said coldly: "This guy's body has reached the legendary indestructible state. Apart from some original power, there is probably nothing that can harm him. Even if it is just a half-dead corpse, there is nothing you can do against him with your ability."
The skinny lama said in a hoarse voice: "Although my skills are low, what you have in your hand is the Dagger of the Abyss. There are not many things in this world that can withstand the power of the Dagger of the Abyss!"
The woman's face turned cold again: "Since you know that your skills are low, then get out of here. I can kill you whenever I want. It's not your turn to tell me what to do!"
A cold light flashed in the skinny lama's eyes, but he turned and left without saying anything.
The woman turned back and stared at the body for a while, her face changing constantly. Finally, she picked up the body, climbed to the top of the snow mountain, and placed the body on a large white jade-like rock on the top of the mountain.
After hesitating for a moment, he opened his mouth, and a wisp of silvery smoke came out of his mouth.
The smoke slowly penetrated into the eyebrows of the "corpse", and you could see that the corpse was filling up at a speed visible to the naked eye, while the woman's expression was obviously a little depressed.
After a long time, she trembled violently, interrupted the transmission of energy, looked at the "corpse" in front of her that had become majestic again, sighed softly, turned around and left with some staggering.
After a long time, the skinny lama appeared silently on the top of the mountain. He pulled out a gem-encrusted scimitar from his waist and slashed at the corpse. Accompanied by the sound of steel clashing, the corpse on the ground was intact. But the dagger immediately broke.
His expression remained unchanged, he casually dropped the short knife, stretched out his hand, and a wisp of black mist shot out. The ice on the ground melted rapidly under the black mist. The black mist was obviously highly corrosive, but the corpse remained Nothing has changed.
The man in black robe then tried all kinds of methods, but was unable to harm the corpse in the slightest. Even the hardest material in the world seemed incomparable to the corpse in front of him.
After a long time, he murmured: "It is indeed an indestructible body!"
After pondering for a while, he took out five slender black needles from his pocket and inserted one into each of the limbs and head of the corpse. I don't know what the black needles were made of. They melted immediately when they came into contact with the corpse. It was a cloud of black smoke. It was not smoke, but countless small bugs that could not be seen with the naked eye, attached to the skin and slowly seeping inwards.
…
The next day, the convoy set off again and traveled for more than an hour to a small county town.
This small town is called Deyuan County. Although it is only a small town, its geographical location is very important. Less than a few dozen miles to the south is the Daze Country, the second largest lord of mankind, and to the west is the central war zone between humans and ferocious beasts. , a large amount of materials need to be transported to the central theater through here. Zhang Gui and his caravan transported a batch of armor equipment to the central theater.
The county town is very lively, with traffic and people flowing in and out. There are all kinds of shops, restaurants, and inns. Most of them are gymnasiums for physical arts. The closer to the beast war zone, the more people advocate martial arts.
The convoy entered a post station, Luo Kai and Zhang Gui thanked them and left.
This was the first time he came to a human city after leaving the cemetery. Walking on the bustling streets, he felt a sense of being out of place in his heart, and he felt that he was no longer in the same world as them.
The heartbeats, pulses, and even simple psychological fluctuations of the people around you are clearly reflected in your mind. When you can detect other people's thoughts, there will no longer be any secrets in human society, so what's the point of living in it?
In the inn, Zhang Wenqian stared at Luo Kai's back from the second-floor window and said, "Second uncle, this person is a little weird."
Zhang Gui nodded beside him and said: "I thought he was different at the ferry. You see, although his clothes are in tatters, he is spotless. Even his bare feet are not stained with dirt. This person must be extraordinary. , so I stepped forward to make friends.”
Zhang Wenqian murmured: "I always feel like I have seen him somewhere."
He frowned and thought deeply for a while, then a look of shock suddenly appeared on his face, and he said urgently: "Second uncle, do you still remember his appearance?"
On the spot, Zhang Guileng suddenly realized that the image of the person who had just left in front of him was gradually fading away, that is, the moment he wanted to recall disappeared without a trace. He was astonished beyond words: "This... How is this going?"
"It is said that when one reaches a certain level of cultivation, one can speak the Dharma, and external things will move according to his will. As long as he doesn't want us to remember, we won't be able to remember!"
Zhang Wenqian's expression was complicated, mostly frightened, but also a little excited and expecting.
…
Luo Kai wandered around the county town aimlessly. A strong aroma of wine wafted over. He followed the smell of alcohol and came to a restaurant. The restaurant was not big, but the business was very good. There was a plaque hanging on the door saying "Three Numbers". There was a big word "Rosemary" on it, and I instinctively touched my pocket, but it was empty.
When I was thinking about how to make some money, there was a sudden commotion on the street, and a voice shouted: "Catch the thief, damn, stop for me...!"
I saw a group of tall men rushing over. In front of this group of people, an unkempt little man held a bundle in his hands.
Although the little man is thin, he is extremely agile and can move through the crowd with ease, even when faced with being chased and intercepted by a large group of people.
