Outside the ghost-like maple forest city, there was silence for a long time.
He finally understood why Jiang Wang brought him here.
This is to uncover your scars and reveal your bloody pain to him. Let him understand that he is not the only one who has the hopeless situation in this world, and he is not the only one who has experienced it.
He had stared into the abyss, and there were people in the abyss.
When he stops here and sinks himself.
But some people still choose to move forward.
For a long time, Master was his god, his faith, and his support.
When that battle ended in a hurry, the master who had tried his sword in the world and was invincible died in front of him.
His gods fell, his heavens collapsed.
He has also gone from being a high-spirited young swordsman to being unable to recover, and is now decadent.
After traveling to some places and experiencing some people and things, he could not be moved or understood. He always faced everything with despair. Not having any expectations for this world, just muddle along in chaos.
"Life is meaningless.", "No matter how hard you try, it's useless."
These words are his mantra. It's his raving, and it's also his demonic obstacle.
Meeting Jiang Wang was an accident. At first, he was just too lazy to move, so he chose to stay in the mining area.
He admitted that the battle to defend Qingyang Town ignited a long-lost excitement in him; he admitted that Hu Shuanzi's death showed him what futile but willing efforts were; he admitted that the little boy who wanted to eat eggs made him Suddenly willing to take a little responsibility.
He admitted that Jiang Wang was a very hard-working practitioner and a very outstanding young man.
But those can only stay for a short moment.
He always felt. The reason why Jiang Wang was able to work so hard was because he didn't realize where the boundaries of life were. Effort is meaningless. The reason why Jiang Wang can be so persistent is because he has never seen true despair.
He envied the youthful spirit, but that was all.
However……
The large area in front of him that was half trapped in the netherworld clearly told him that you are not the only person in this world who has encountered despair.
This is Jiang Wang's hometown. He was born and raised here and lives here.
It can be said that all of Jiang Wang's previous life is buried here. But despite carrying such a heavy burden, he still straightened his spine and moved forward firmly.
Speaking of the word "desperate".
Jiang Wang is facing a rising country. It is a huge force with two powerful gods and a leader of Dongzhen Kingdom.
At that time, Jiang Wang was only a seventeen-year-old boy with a short life expectancy, no famous teacher, no inheritance... Who could see hope?
But Jiang Wang never gave up. He traveled thousands of miles alone and left his hometown to pursue his career. One person and one sword, we have traveled all the way till now.
Where does he go forward?
He holds the pinnacle of swordsmanship in the flying sword era. He possesses an unparalleled flying sword. Before his death, his master sealed everything he had learned throughout his life into his sea of consciousness.
During those days when he was testing the world of swordsmanship, his master took him to see thousands of mountains and rivers, and saw countless strange techniques. Cultivating his vision and improving his structure can be said to be a training that spares no effort.
Compared to Jiang Wang, he has so much, and he clearly has more possibilities...
But he chose to give up!
Standing in front of this ghost world on earth, he seemed to hear the master's voice again, the voice that he did not dare to recall but appeared again and again in his dreams.
"I am the only one who can advance in the way of swordsmanship and never retreat. I am the only one who is invincible in heaven and on earth! Go forward and remember your name!"
How did he answer that time, and how did he forget it later?
"Hey, I cut off the road of life and death with one sword. Who in the world is worthy of me turning back? Master, just watch. In less than a hundred years, I will be at the top!"
Is it that the god-like man is too powerful, or is his ideals inherently delusional, and his sword heart inherently fragile?
Without realizing it, tears were streaming down my face!
When guarding Qingyang Town, he wanted to stand up. When Hu Shuanzi died, he was willing to show his talents. When the little boy said he wanted to eat eggs, his flying sword was howling!
But why did he stop when he took a step forward, hesitate when he moved forward?
He turned around without warning and suddenly bowed deeply to Jiang Wang: "Jiang Wang, I want to thank you. Thank you with sincerity and despicableness at the same time. You made me recognize myself. You let me see that I have always been How I have been running away and shrinking. You stand in front of me, and my soul feels ashamed. You are like a mirror, showing my weakness."
Jiang Wang didn't evade, he just looked at him and said, "So have you thought about your future?"
He stood up straight forward, then lay down again, like a felled tree, lying upright in front of the living monument: "Let me sleep here for a while, and maybe I will have the answer when I wake up."
Jiang Wang didn't ask why. He knew that after sinking forward for so long, he needed a private enough time to reflect on himself, sort out the past, and then start again.
He just nodded and turned around.
This is the old territory of Maple Grove City, also known as "Maple Grove Ghost Monster". No one will come over normally, so Qian Qian sleeps here without being disturbed easily.
And it just so happened that he also had a place he wanted to go.
The two cities closest to "Maple Forest Ghost" are Sanshan and Wangjiang. One is in the southeast of Maplewood City, and the other is in the southwest.
Jiang Wang has been to both Sanshan City and Wangjiang City. He has some friends in Sanshan City and some enemies in Wangjiang City.
But neither friend nor foe would probably know that he was still alive.
No matter how famous he is in Qi State, this is the domain of the West after all. Most people only care about those extremely powerful people who are famous all over the world, but rarely care about geniuses who are limited to any place.
After all, geniuses don't always grow up.
Leaving the monument full of ugly creatures and Qiang Qian, who was already asleep, Jiang Wang walked toward the southwest alone.
He did not choose to go to Sanshan City to see his old friends, but the reason for going to Wangjiang City was not because of the enemy.
His inner palace has long been accomplished, but there is no instant Taoist spell engraved on it. The Eight-tone Flame Bird and the Exploding Flame Bird were his own creations, so they could be used in battle in a timely manner without occupying this position. And the first-class middle-grade Taoist skills that match the cultivation level of the inner palace are not so easy to obtain.
Jiang Wang's plan was to use potential Tao techniques and expend a lot of energy to perform deductions on the Tao stage.
In Wangjiang City, there was a Taoist technique that impressed him deeply, called Kuchiki Jue.
During the battle between the Three Cities on Taoism, a young man named Fu Baosong from the Wangjiang City Taoist Academy relied on this technique to fight against Lin Zhengren.
This Taoist technique only has a second-grade top grade, but it was able to break Lin Zhengren's first-grade low-grade Green Python Twist in battle. It undoubtedly has excellent potential.
Jiang Wang actually became interested in this Taoist art at that time, and later asked the Taoist teacher at the Taoist Academy when he could learn the Kuchiki Art. But he was told that this Taoist technique was the unique secret technique of the dean of Wangjiang City Taoist Academy. So I had to give up.
But now, Jiang Wang is no longer a member of the Taoist Academy.
He doesn't have to follow the Taoist rules, and he only has hatred in Zhuangting.
So I thought, try to get one.
