The world seemed to suddenly become quiet. In the flawless white square, among the twenty-two circles of light, it seemed that only the look between the two people at this moment was the center of the world.
Ling Xiao looked straight at the mask, at the patterns on the mask, at every line on the patterns. The eternal moments deep in his memory seemed to be activated one by one, trying their best to get into his mind.
Besides her, who else still remembers his mask after so long?
So long, how long is it?
So long that that figure was imprinted in the depths of his memory, so long that those moving eyes became eternity in his life, so long that he never forgot her smile every moment.
Ling Xiao's body trembled slightly.
But she seemed to smile, her beautiful eyes as curved as the moon, as warm as water, and nodded gently to him.
Then Ling Xiao seemed to hear her heavenly voice whispering softly in his ear.
Just come back.
The feelings that have traveled through time have not disappeared because of his disappearance. They will only become more and more mellow and sweet in the face of the answer that has been pursued for more than 40 years.
You're okay, that's fine.
Ling Xiao felt a rush of blood welling up in his heart. He wanted to step forward, but was blocked by the hateful halo of light. He could only stop where he was, looking at the figure infatuatedly.
I don't know how long it took, but he suddenly realized that there was something ready-made at hand, so he came to the long desk.
The other twenty-one contestants in the circle of light were all sitting obediently. Only Ling Xiao was looking around like a monkey, attracting everyone's attention for a while.
What does he want to do?
The contestants looked at each other.
The pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the long desk must be related to the opportunity of the meeting. No one dares to mess with their personal future. Only Ling Xiao, the "monkey", actually started writing with a splash of ink.
Then, he picked up the paper in front of him and pointed it in that direction.
There are only five words on it: I am fine, how about you?
Everyone's eyes suddenly converged in front of Ling Xiao, looking at the woman wearing the rabbit mask with expressions of astonishment and amusement.
"How long has it been and you are still picking up girls?"
"Who is this man, and who is that woman?"
Everyone is full of questions.
Only her delicate body trembled slightly, and she also wrote a line: I am fine, don't worry about it, just focus on the present.
She raised the note and then tilted her head, seemingly smiling playfully, pointing to her heart and then to Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao smiled and made the same move.
it is more than words.
Wait for me and go back.
Ling Xiao came back to his senses and suddenly found another piece of paper in front of him, which said, "I'm very fine, why do you ask?" When he took a closer look, he saw that it was Lihentian, the living treasure.
This guy actually persisted until now, and the aperture was right in front of Ling Xiao, between him and Liu Junhuan.
Looking back again, I saw June holding a note in the distance.
"Ling Xiao, who is she? She looks familiar!!"
You guys sent a text message, right?
The other contestants looked at this scene and felt extremely angry. Even if Liu Junhuan is wearing a mask, Liu Yue is stunningly beautiful, but he is actually related to Ling Xiao?
Besides, you are Ling Xiao?
I have heard of your name as early as when we were exchanging cultivation experiences!
Damn boy, are you here to talk about love?
For a time, many people at the scene began to write notes, as if they wanted to condemn him.
"quiet!"
Suddenly, a majestic voice resounded throughout the world.
In the center of the square, in the center of many apertures, a white figure suddenly appeared, sitting cross-legged on the ground, scanning the whole place with stern eyes.
Everyone's movements froze, and at the same time they felt a pressure that was as heavy as the mountains descending on their shoulders.
The majesty of the gods, even after endless years, still sinks over the mountains, like the incarnation of heaven and earth. Anyone can see their own insignificance from this pressure.
For a moment, the whole place seemed to freeze, everyone froze in place, not daring to make the slightest move.
Bai Ying said calmly: "The final assessment has begun. The jade slip in front of you records a question, which is closely related to you. Answer it. I will judge your ranking based on the final answer."
As he spoke, light and shadow flickered on the long desk, and a jade slip appeared.
“Also, communicating with each other using notes is prohibited.”
Bai Ying added, and at the same time, intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao smiled sarcastically and hurriedly got the jade slip, sinking his consciousness into it to check the problem.
The first sentence that caught my eye was: "Why does your boy fall in love with so many women?"
Ling Xiao's expression froze.
Fortunately, this question seems to be just a boring question Bai Ying asked casually, because there is another question below.
How to balance spiritual consciousness, magic power, and physical body?
Ling Xiao frowned.
This question is extremely general. What does "how to balance" mean? What exactly should be “balanced”?
He feels that these three forces are quite balanced in the body, and they never fight or get into trouble.
Or is Bai Ying asking himself how to balance the cultivation progress of the three?
It's very simple, just throw money and practice hard...
Simple and direct, no technical content.
There is an old saying that goes, simplicity leads to greatness...
But Bai Ying said that the question is closely related to the contestants, so the answer will never be so simple.
Think carefully about how you balance the practice progress of the three along the way.
In addition to spending money and hard work, it was also inseparable from the guidance of many spiritual grasses and spiritual trees, which made Ling Xiaoshao take countless detours and greatly improved the efficiency of his practice.
So, is it also a reason to ask for advice humbly?
However, the teacher said during the previous exam that we should also guess the intention of the person who asked the question. What was Bai Ying’s intention?
Ling Xiao thought a lot for a while, and suddenly found that he only thought about the past.
So, what about the future?
How to balance these three in the future?
As the cultivation level becomes higher and higher, as each realm becomes more and more difficult to cross, whether it is spiritual consciousness, magic power, or physical body, it will become more and more difficult to improve.
At that time, with only five spiritual roots, can he still be able to drive three cars abreast?
If not, how should you make a decision then?
Then again, the long road to immortality is really just about spending money, working hard, and humbly asking for advice, and you can keep climbing up?
His expression was cloudy and uncertain, like an old monk sitting still, motionless.
The same was true for the other contestants in the circle of light. Some of them were trembling all over, as if they had encountered an unprecedented problem, and they were helpless and didn't know what to do.
One hour.
Two hours.
Three hours……
Time rushed forward without any nostalgia, but it seemed to be completely still at this moment. No one among the contestants made any move.
Bai Ying's problem is not only related to the current opportunity, but also directly points to the fate of everyone present in the next few hundred years!
The road to immortality is long and long with obstacles.
Everyone, how should you choose?
