I was particularly puzzled. I raised my head and looked at the old man.
The old man was also looking down at me at this time, his eyes full of smiles, but he looked very weak, like a candle in the wind that would be extinguished at any time.
What's going on? Why don't you just teach me a method? How could he still become weak?
Seeing me opening my eyes, the old man was the first to speak: "How do you feel? Is the power of this Xuanhuang thunder method strong?"
I was a little surprised, touched my head and said, "Senior, is this the end?"
The old man looked at me with tired eyes, then nodded and said with a smile: "What else? Are you curious that the teaching method of Xuanhuang Thunder Technique is different from the Taoist teaching method of your Taoist sect?"
I nodded without any hesitation.
The old man yawned and then slowly explained: "Boy, although this Xuanhuang Thunder Technique is also a method, it is more appropriate to call it inheritance! This Thunder Technique does not require any training methods. The only thing it needs is me. You need to plant a thunder method brand in your body, and with this brand, you only need to use the white power to activate the brand when using the thunder method, and the thunder method will appear naturally!!"
After saying this, the old man coughed heavily, as if he was in a twilight state, and it was difficult to keep talking.
I nodded. Seeing the old man's state, I seemed to understand something. I bowed gently to the old man and said, "Senior, I'm afraid this kind of branding with lightning is not as simple as you said, right?"
The old man was confused for a moment, then he smiled meaningfully, patted me on the shoulder, and sighed, as if he had completely let go of something, and then he slowly sighed and said: "Boy, you are smart, yes, this mystery The Emperor's Thunder Method is indeed not as simple as you said. This is the power that my Tao Lord spent his whole life developing. At that time, his source of power was only his ability to exert its power. But in that final battle, Tao Lord You took out the thunder method seeds from your body, divided them into four, and distributed them to the four of us, so we can use this quarter of the Xuan Emperor's thunder method!"
I finally understood. It turns out that the activation of the thunder method is related to the brand seed. Only with this brand seed can the thunder method be used.
And at this moment, I also understood something...
"Senior, if you say so, then you gave me the brand in your body and you are gone, right?"
The old man smiled calmly: "What's the harm? I am already in my twilight years. With this remaining soul, I don't know how long I can survive. It is useless to have such a powerful power, but the hidden dangers in this world are not yet there. Purge requires the existence of this kind of power to destroy them, and it also needs young people like you who can control this power to eradicate those hidden monsters, so take my brand and fight for this world!"
"I have a wish: I hope there will be no more monsters in the world, I hope there will be no more battles, I hope everything in the world will be beautiful, I hope the world will be free..."
"Just think of it as my final contribution to this world!"
As he spoke, the old man's dirty clothes instantly became dazzling, and then under the golden light, a long golden robe appeared on his body, wrapping his whole body in an instant!
He has returned to his noble appearance again!
The old man looked at me with drooped eyelids, and then asked: "I...are you beautiful?"
I nodded: "Senior is extremely luxurious!"
The old man nodded: "That's good. I have a hunch that this power has been given to you. I don't have much time left. I only have three to five years left at most. In this last moment, I want to spend it cleanly, otherwise When the time comes to face Mr. Dao, he will be unhappy when he sees my dirty look!"
"When Daojun was alive, he loved to be clean the most. No dust is allowed in the entire Cave Heaven Paradise. I want to see him clean..."
As he spoke, the old man sat cross-legged, stared straight ahead, and said no more.
I sighed softly, I have seen this situation too many times, and every time, it is difficult to calm down, but I can't change anything at all, I can only sigh again and again, and my heart is infinitely sad.
"Thank you, senior, for taking care of this world. Boy... I will definitely live up to the trust of senior!" I bowed.
The old man waved his hand at me and said without looking back: "Let's go, little guy, your path is not here. Although I also want you to stay and talk to me, it would be too unfair to you. , the vast world outside is where you can spread your wings, this tower is too small!"
What he said was indeed reasonable, because I couldn't stay in this place. Although I was a little reluctant, I still chose to leave.
"Let go and run as much as you want, even if this world is too small!"
I turned around and was about to leave, but when I looked up, I suddenly remembered something.
Then, I turned around and asked, "Senior, wait a moment, I have another question."
The old man was a little impatient, but still said: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
I raised my finger and pointed at the top of my head: "Senior, if I remember correctly, this tower has nine floors, right?"
My idea is also very simple. Now that I have reached the eighth floor, I don’t know when the next time I come back will be. Naturally, I have to explore this place thoroughly before I can stop. Otherwise, I will have regrets in my heart.
The old man raised his eyebrows, obviously a little unnatural. Then he looked at me solemnly, and after a while he said: "What... do you want to do?"
I replied nonchalantly: "It's nothing, it's just that senior has been here for so long, so he should know something about the ninth floor, right? It's been three thousand years, you don't know what's there, right?"
The old man nodded, and then said slowly: "If you really want to ask, I won't lie to you. I do know about this ninth level, but I'm not afraid to tell you that even I can't tell you this ninth level. Don’t dare to go up!”
Hearing this, I felt excited all over.
Even old people dare not go up?
What exactly is on this ninth floor?
