The first ray of light shone through the treetops, dispersing the darkness. The sun was not out yet, but the visibility was already very high.
"Eh, there's a village over there." Chen Zi looked into the distance and noticed that there was a village in front.
This was a dangerous place, but there was actually a village. What kind of village could survive in such a dangerous place?
Normally, villages would only appear in the mountains where there were no monstrous beasts and it was very safe.
How could a normal village survive in such a dangerous place?
"Let's go over and take a look," Mo Wen said curiously.
"Aren't you worried that there's danger?" Chen Zi asked cautiously. There was definitely something wrong when something was out of the ordinary. That village was most likely not simple.
"I'm not even afraid of monstrous beasts, so how could I be afraid of humans? Moreover, it's hard to tell the direction in the mountains. Finding a family to ask for directions can save a lot of time. "
Mo Wen was very curious about that village. To be able to live in this forest, it was impossible without some ability.
"Then let's go and ask for directions."
Chen Zi thought about it. What Mo Wen said was right. It was not a good idea for the two of them to wander around in the deep mountains and forests.
The two of them passed through a stone forest and quickly reached the front of the village.
Five or six young children were playing at the entrance of the village. Every child was very healthy, and they were accompanied by a big multicolored tiger and a python that was dozens of meters long.
The two little kids sat on the big python and were having a lot of fun. Their faces were full of smiles. On the back of the big python, there were actually two wings.
On the neck of the mighty big tiger hung a bamboo basket. In the bamboo basket, there was a fair and tender baby wrapped in swaddling clothes. The baby's two fair and tender little hands were waving in mid-air.
When the big tiger occasionally looked at the baby, there was a hint of gentleness in its eyes.
If this scene was recorded and uploaded on the internet, it would probably be reposted hundreds of millions of times …
"Five Colored Demonic Tiger and Icy Flying Snake."
A glint of shock flashed in Chen Zi's eyes. Her pair of big eyes stared straight at the two seemingly harmless monstrous beasts. Her heart trembled.
The Five Colored Demonic Tiger and the Flying Frost Snake were sixth level monstrous beasts, comparable to Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioners. Those two adult monstrous beasts had actually become children's toys …
Although monstrous beasts could be tamed by humans, the higher the rank of the monstrous beast, the more difficult it was to tame it. Sixth rank monstrous beasts were too difficult to tame. Normally, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven for a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner to tame a Sixth rank monstrous beast.
Even in the Intentionless Sect, there were not many sixth rank monstrous beasts.
The Phantom Wolf Cat, which had been sleeping soundly on Mo Wen's shoulder, stood up with a whoosh. Its fur stood up, and its pair of jade-green eyes stared intently at the Five Colored Demonic Tiger and the Flying Frost Snake. Its face was full of caution, as though it was facing a great enemy.
At the same time, the Five Colored Demonic Tiger and the Ice Flying Snake also noticed Mo Wen and Xiao Luo at the same time. Two pairs of faint eyes stared at the two of them. They bared their teeth, seemingly warning them. However, it was rare that they did not immediately attack.
"I am Mo Wen. I am passing by this place and am here to ask for directions."
However, Mo Wen did not care about the two monstrous beasts. His gaze swept past the Five Colored Demonic Tiger and the Flying Frost Serpent, looking towards a small bamboo house in front of the village.
"Those who have come are guests. Please come in."
An old voice suddenly sounded from within the bamboo house. It was far away, but the voice seemed to be right beside their ears.
Upon hearing this, the Five Colored Demonic Tiger and the Flying Frost Snake immediately moved to the sides, looking as though they were making way for Mo Wen and Chen Zi.
Mo Wen smiled and nodded at the two monstrous beasts. Then, he walked towards the bamboo house.
Chen Zi followed behind Mo Wen curiously. She did not understand how Mo Wen knew that there was someone in the bamboo house. She had not noticed anything just now.
In the bamboo house, an old man in sackcloth was sitting on a bamboo bed. He looked old and his eyes were sunken. He seemed to be on the verge of death.
"Young man, I have not seen such an outstanding young man like you in a long time."
The old man in sackcloth looked at Mo Wen. His calm eyes were like a deep pool. On the surface, he looked like an ordinary old man. However, Mo Wen did not dare to slight him.
"Old man, could it be that there is another young man as outstanding as me?" Mo Wen said with a faint smile.
The old man in sackcloth was slightly stunned. He said with a faint smile, "You are really conceited."
"I have no other motive for coming to disturb you. I just want to ask for directions to Intentionless City," Mo Wen said.
This old man was not simple. He did not want to interact too much with such a person. After asking for directions, he immediately left.
"Intentionless City?"
The old man in sackcloth raised his eyelids. There was some doubt in his eyes. He seemed to have never heard of this city.
"Old man, Intentionless City is the main city of Qingzhen District," Chen Zi explained.
Intentionless City was one of the eight big cities in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. It was the symbolic city where the people of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension lived. Could it be that this old man was so secluded that he did not even know about the eight big main cities?
"So it was the main city of Qingzhen District. Has it become Intentionless City now? I thought that the main city of Qingzhen District was still Daoyuan City. "
A look of regret flashed in the eyes of the old man in sackcloth. The main city of Qingzhen District had actually changed hands. It was hard to predict. No matter how powerful a faction was, it would disappear in the long river of time.
"What!"
Chen Zi gasped. She looked at the old man in sackcloth in disbelief. It was as though she had seen a ghost. When Daoyuan City was still the main city of Qingzhen District, it was a matter of 150 years ago.
Ever since the decline of Daoyuan Sect, Intentionless Sect had replaced Daoyuan Sect's position and controlled Qingzhen District. It had been 150 years since then.
The old man in front of her actually thought that Qingzhen District was still under the rule of Daoyuan Sect.
"Old man, how old are you exactly?" Chen Zi asked, a little shocked.
"How old? I seem to have forgotten. " The old man in sackcloth smiled and shook his head. A look of reminiscence flashed in his eyes. However, his expression was very calm. It was as though the past had become smoke and everything was just a passing cloud.
"If you want to go to the main city of Qingzhen District, it is not far. Walk north from here and you will reach the outskirts of Intentionless City in 500 miles."
The old man in sackcloth said plainly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zi smiled bitterly. It turned out that after walking for a night, they had gone in the opposite direction. If they walked south, they would most likely be further away from Intentionless Sect.
There were eight major districts in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Intentionless Sect was located in the south. Their current position should be at the southern border. Hence, they could only walk north to reach Intentionless City.
Fortunately, they had encountered a village. If the two of them had continued walking foolishly, they did not know how long it would take to reach Intentionless City.
"Thank you, old man, for your guidance. Since that is the case, we shall not disturb your cultivation."
Mo Wen did not seem to want to stay for long. He pulled Chen Zi and prepared to walk out of the bamboo house.
"Young man, please stay …"
The old man in sackcloth looked at Mo Wen in surprise. Then, he smiled plainly. A glint of light flashed silently in his eyes.
His voice had just sounded when Mo Wen's body trembled violently. He stood on the spot in a daze for a moment. It was as though time had frozen. His eyes were empty in an instant.
However, in the next moment, Mo Wen recovered from his daze. A glint of fear rose in the depths of his eyes.
"Mo Wen, what's wrong?"
Chen Zi looked at Mo Wen strangely. She did not understand why he had suddenly stopped on the spot and not moved.
"Chen Zi, please go out for a while. I still have something to say to the old man," Mo Wen said.
A glint of doubt flashed in Chen Zi's eyes. Mo Wen and this old man did not know each other. What could he have to say? However, she did not say anything. She nodded her head and walked out alone.
"Old man, why did you make me stay behind alone?"
Mo Wen turned to look at the old man in sackcloth. A rare glint of fear rose in his eyes.
"Indeed, it is as I expected. Young man, you are very outstanding. Among the young people that I have seen, regardless of Cultivation, only one person can be compared to you in terms of Soul Power."
The old man in sackcloth's expressionless face now looked at Mo Wen in surprise. He was indeed not simple. No wonder he could discover his location from so far away.
His Cultivation was not outstanding. However, his Soul Power was simply blessed by the heavens. There were thousands of geniuses in the world. However, there were only a few who had such powerful Soul Power when they were in the Embryonic Breathing realm.
"Senior, you are not simple either. Indeed, the wilderness produces an expert."
Mo Wen said plainly. This old man in sackcloth was very powerful. He was so powerful that even Mo Wen was a little afraid. If nothing went wrong, the old man had at least the Cultivation of the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm. This was because his Soul Power had already exceeded the existence of a normal pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm. It was almost twice as powerful as Mo Wen's. Also, the quality was very close to the Primordial Soul level. If they were to compete in Soul Power, even two Mo Wens would not be a match for the old man in front of him.
If Mo Wen met such a person who had evil intentions, it would be difficult for him to escape even if he had all kinds of tricks up his sleeve.
"Young man, do you know why I made you stay behind?" The old man in sackcloth said plainly.
"Could it be that senior is going to treat me to a meal?" Mo Wen curled his lips slightly.
The old man in sackcloth was stunned when he heard that. He immediately smiled and said, "I was deliberately mystifying things. Since that is the case, I will not beat around the bush. I have something that I have always wanted to do. However, I do not have the ability to do so. So, I want to find a partner with extraordinary ability. "
"Senior, do you mean that you have taken a fancy to me?" Mo Wen asked plainly.
"Your current Cultivation is too low. Even if I have taken a fancy to you, it would be useless." The old man in sackcloth shook his head.
"Since I cannot help you, senior, then I will take my leave."
Mo Wen saluted with his fists. He turned around and prepared to leave the bamboo house. He was not at all interested in the matter that the old man in sackcloth had mentioned. Not to mention that he did not have the ability now, even if he had the ability, he would not agree to it.
"Hold on. Don't be impatient. Young people are impatient."
A terrifying aura emanated from the body of the old man in sackcloth. In an instant, it enveloped Mo Wen's body. It was as though a mountain had descended from the sky. Mo Wen's body swayed and once again froze on the spot.
"Senior, are you going to use your power to bully me?"
Mo Wen slowly turned around and said with his eyes slightly narrowed. At the same time, he was extremely shocked. The cultivation of the old man in sackcloth had definitely surpassed that of a normal pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. It seemed that he had already reached the legendary pinnacle of ancient martial art practitioners, the realm of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. (To be continued.)
