Sword breaks the sky

Chapter 172 Secret News
The arm was grabbed by the old man in black, Gaia yelled in shock, and stepped back seven or eight steps in a row, feeling a chill rising from the bottom of his heart, from head to toe.He violently broke away from the old man's hand, and pointed the black iron epee at the skinny and bony old man in front of him. If it wasn't for the pair of dark eyes still gleaming coldly, he would really be like a zombie old man.Gaia carefully looked at the old man from head to toe. Under the dry skin, there was a faint trace of vitality. Under normal circumstances, this person in front of him was definitely a dead person, but he stood in front of him alive again. Gaia's heart trembled, and she shouted fiercely, "Are you a human or a ghost?"

"I'm still human now, but I'm going to turn into a ghost soon, cough cough... I was already desperate, thinking that you wouldn't come, but I didn't expect, hehe, I really didn't expect that I would actually wait for you when I was dying Already." The old man excitedly wanted to grab Gaia's hands again...

Gaia pretended to take a step back unintentionally, avoiding the old man's hands, only to hear the excited voice of the mummy-like old man in black. Although Gaia was unwilling to contact him, her hostility towards him was greatly reduced.At the same time, there was still a trace of doubt in my heart, the person this old man was waiting for turned out to be me!This is absolutely impossible... I have never met this old man.Moreover, it was the first time to visit this temple, so it could be said that the old man had no connection with himself.So Gaia thought that the old man made a mistake, maybe the old man was waiting for someone who looked very similar to him.Thinking of this, Gaia cupped her fists, bowed to the old man and said, "Senior, did you recognize the wrong person? We have never met before, so why are you waiting for me here?"

"Cough cough cough...Although I am old and dim-sighted, I will never admit you wrong no matter what." The old man's affirmative tone completely cut off Gaia's idea that the old man admitted the wrong person... After a pause, the old man continued: " I think you must be full of doubts at this moment, right?"

Gaia nodded solemnly and said, "Why are you waiting for me here?"

"I knew you would ask this question. It can be said that the person I am waiting for is you, not you...cough cough cough..." A violent cough interrupted the old man's speech...

Hearing what the old man said, Gaia became even more confused. What does it mean that the person waiting is me, not me... At this moment, Gaia feels that her IQ is seriously insufficient.

After coughing for a long time, until there were a few streaks of blood on the corners of his mouth, the old man finally stopped coughing. Looking at Gaia with a wry smile on his face, a rare smile appeared on the old man's face, but on that mummy-like face, the smile Uglier than crying. "I know this is a bit difficult to understand, but it is true. What I am waiting for is not a person at all, but a bloodline inherited from thousands of years ago, and you are the successor to the power of that bloodline."

"Me!" Gaia pointed to her nose, the blood that was passed down thousands of years ago, Gaia herself did not believe it.After all, my own family, the Dragon Warrior family, only has a history of more than 3000 years. How could I have a bloodline that was passed down thousands of years ago...

"I know it's hard for you to believe, but I sense the power of the master's blood in your body. Although it's very weak, I can still feel it clearly." Cough cough cough... the intense cough sound came again Come on, interrupt the old man's speech.

The old man who was coughing violently spewed out a mouthful of blood with a puff, but the mouthful of blood turned out to be black and gave off bursts of stench.After spitting out blood, the old man stopped coughing, and a blush appeared on his withered face, like a dead tree in spring.However, Gaia, who was extremely sensitive, found that the vitality of this old man had been exhausted, and now he looked much more energetic, and he was just returning to the light.

At this time, Gaia felt a little sympathetic to the old man, walked to him gently, helped him to sit on a chair in a corner of the temple, and said softly: "Senior, you should take a good rest first!"

Sighing lightly, the old man showed a wry smile, "I know I'm almost exhausted, and it's time to leave. I should have died thousands of years ago when my old injury recurred, but I didn't complete the master's work." I dare not die lightly due to the task I was given. I had to use the secret method of "Survival with dead wood" to preserve my life. This secret method is extremely wonderful and can greatly prolong a person's life. But it also has to endure unbearable pain for ordinary people. Not only the body The skin on the surface slowly dries up, and the various organs in the body gradually become as hard as stone."

Hearing the old man's words, Gaia's heart trembled suddenly. Under such cruel torture, the old man persisted for 3000 years. What a firm will it takes!At this time, Gaia admired the old man very much, so when Gaia faced the old man again, the smile on his face was much gentler, and the admiration light shone in his eyes...

"Although this secret method is difficult for ordinary people to accept, it also has its miraculous features. I can't bear to see him lost, so I will give it to you." As soon as the old man finished speaking, Gaia felt a space distortion around him, and a black The scroll appeared in front of him, and he reached out to take the scroll without opening it, and just stuffed it into the space ring.

After being silent for a while, the old man said calmly... "I know you have a lot of questions in your mind right now. I don't have much time. If you want to know anything, just ask as soon as possible. If you don't tell the secrets in your heart right now, I'm afraid There will be no more chances in the future.”

"En" Gaia nodded slightly. The purpose of this trip was to detect this mysterious temple, so his first question was naturally about this temple.So he asked, "What kind of place is this temple?"

"This hall is the Temple of Demon Sealing"

"The Temple of Sealing Demons? Could it be that a powerful demon is sealed in this temple! What kind of demon is it?" Gaia asked in surprise:

"I don't know what kind of demon it is, but I know that the strength of this demon is extremely terrifying. Because this temple seals not a complete demon, but just a demon's head!"

"Just one head has such a powerful strength?" Thinking of the shocking momentum of the black shadow man hitting the seal on the way to the temple, Gaia really found it hard to believe that a single head has such powerful strength.

At this time, there was a faint roar from the ground, and the entire temple was trembling slightly. The old man's face changed suddenly, and Gaia felt the space around him twist, and the old man disappeared.Gaia also rushed out of the temple, and saw the old man floating above the temple at this moment, making handprints with both hands, and at the same time, a huge hexagram rose into the sky around the temple, spinning at a high speed in the air .Finally, under the guidance of the old man, the four hexagrams in the four directions were connected together, forming a seal similar to the seal of the beast that I saw a few days ago, covering the temple tightly, and immediately shining brightly of white rays.

Suddenly, an extremely powerful pressure appeared. Although Gaia had already stood outside the temple, the pressure was so strong that it was almost irresistible, and he still couldn't breathe.

When the seal completely enveloped the temple, the deep roar from the underground completely disappeared, and the temple became quiet again...

When the temple returned to calm, the four huge six-pointed stars flying into the air around the temple also returned to their original state.At this moment, Gaia finally knew what the huge six-pointed star gathering spirit array was for, and it turned out to provide energy for the seal of the temple.The seal of the temple actually needs four spirit-gathering arrays of such a huge scale to provide energy for it. Now Gaia finally fully believes how terrifying the monsters sealed in the temple are...

The temple became quiet, and the old man's body slowly fell in the air. Gaia stepped on the ground fiercely with his feet, and raised his body high, hugging the falling figure of the old man.Looking at the old man's lifeless eyes, Gaia knew that the old man had come to his last moment.

Seeing the corners of the old man's mouth twitching slightly, Gaia hurriedly put his ears up, and heard: "The master said before leaving, if I wait for someone to wait for, I will let you enter the second floor of the temple, where there are people left by the master. The things for you, please don’t enter the third floor, remember...remember..." After saying these words, Gaia felt a sudden light in her arms, and saw the old man's body quickly turned into nothingness... until it was completely Disappeared between heaven and earth...
