Chapter 268
"Child, do you really want to burn this place?"
Half a day later, the second ancestral land of the Shi clan.
A tall, thin old man with black hair looked at the village that had been lived in for decades, with various complex emotions flashing in his eyes.
There is reluctance, nostalgia, and a trace of indescribable unwillingness and anger.
"Otherwise, keep it, and wait for other people to live in it in the future?"
Wu Xian said this, his tone with a hint of sarcasm, and the old man who heard this was also embarrassed, and for a while, he didn't know how to speak.
"Hao'er... these years, we have let you down."
The black-haired old man said this, his eyes flickering slightly, not even daring to look at Wu Xian more.
Obviously, this old man is one of the Shi clan elders exiled to the second ancestral land, and he was the one who helped Shi Ziling and his wife choose Wu Xian as Shi Hao's substitute to block those secret prying eyes.
Because of this, the old man has always felt very indebted to Wu Xian, really treating him as his own grandson.
However, because he had the memories of his previous life since birth, Wu Xian knew from the beginning that he was a substitute for someone else. Even if the other party was the Huang Heavenly Emperor Shi Hao, it was really hard for him to accept.
Because of this, all the care and warmth he gave to the old men in the village over the years were just superficial gratitude for seeking protection, but he never regarded them as real relatives in his heart.
Now he has become stronger and has enough strength to protect himself, so naturally, he doesn't need to continue pretending to be a good grandson.
Besides, Wu Xian didn't ignore the old man completely.
For example, this morning, he used the Twin Hands to cure his illness and the countless hidden injuries accumulated over the years, which made him rejuvenate, and even his hair turned black, as if he were more than ten years younger.
According to Wu Xian's idea, the old guy took him as a scapegoat, but he also took care of him carefully for a few years, so he saved his life now, which is considered even.
No! If you really calculate it, the other party owes him more, and it is deserved to be treated coldly by him.
Thinking of this, Wu Xian snorted again, and then gathered a fireball in his palm with the internal energy of the Nine Yang Divine Art, saying: "I have lived in this place since I could remember, but the impression it left on me is only endless loneliness and bullying."
"To me, this is not an ancestral land, just a prison cage that imprisoned me. Now that I have escaped, naturally I want to erase its traces, and it is also considered to cut off the relationship with that line of the Shi clan."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the fireball in his hand flew into the village.
The next second, accompanied by the sound of an explosion, the monstrous fire spread rapidly, engulfing the inside and outside of the village in the blink of an eye.
"Alas... forget it, that line is indeed rotten now, not worth lingering, it's good to cut off the relationship with them."
Watching the fire burning, the old man smiled bitterly and shook his head, then as if thinking of something, he said seriously: "Little Stone, no matter what you think in your heart, you must leave this place now.
After all, this is the second ancestral land. No matter how dilapidated it is, it involves the face of the Shi clan. If people know that this place was burned, the Shi clan, and even the current Emperor of the Shi Kingdom, will not let it go, and it is very likely that they will send Wang Hou-level masters to investigate this matter."
Wang Hou-level masters, that is, practitioners of the Formation Array Realm, are the top existences below the Venerable, possessing unimaginable powerful strength, very terrifying.
Wu Xian nodded, but he didn't worry much in his heart.
Although he has not yet practiced, his physical fitness, soul strength, and even combat skills are far beyond the countless cultivators in the lower realm.
According to the analysis of the salted fish in the mysterious space, if Wu Xian can fully develop his potential, his normal combat power will be comparable to a Divine Flame Realm master. If he uses the light of the soul to superimpose attributes, he can even briefly explode with power exceeding the Heavenly God Realm, destroying the Desolate Domain or even the entire lower realm plane with one blow.
Of course, the latter description might be a bit difficult. It's not that it can't be done, but there are many taboo and powerful existences hidden in the lower realm. If such a world-destroying disaster really occurs, it is very likely that they will take action to stop it, find him, the culprit, and have unnecessary conflicts.
Even if those taboo existences don't care, the Huang Heavenly Emperor above the Sacrificial Dao will not sit idly by, and might even directly reset the timeline and remove him, a guy who shouldn't exist... That picture is too beautiful, Wu Xian dare not imagine it.
In addition, this body is too young. Although the basic attributes are full, there is no auxiliary blessing of Kryptonian bloodline and genetic lock. Even if he possesses powerful strength, it is just like a castle in the air, flashy and useless. Rashly using overly terrifying power might also cause serious backlash.
Only after formally entering cultivation can he perfectly control these powers and achieve the most ideal effect.
As for the Nine Yang Divine Art and the Nine Yin Manual, these martial arts that point directly to the Great Dao of Internal Energy...
How to say, these techniques are ultimately products of the infinite multiverse. Although they have versatility, they are only suitable for worlds based on martial arts or without supernatural elements.
And the level of the Perfect World is too high, and the various Great Dao laws have already formed a strict system. The Great Dao of Internal Energy is contrary to it, and it is difficult to truly integrate into it. Even if it can be used, the power will be greatly weakened.
Wu Xian has tried this point many times and can basically confirm it.
On the contrary, the Eight Strange Skills, because they belong to the category of "techniques" and do not involve "Dao," have no major obstacles to use, and even have enhanced effects, which is very outrageous.
Thinking of this, he looked at the Shi clan elder beside him, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Wujiu grandfather, I want to practice, break through the Move Blood Realm, and ask you to guide me."
"Ah?!"
The old man called Wujiu was stunned when he heard this, and then widened his eyes, incredibly: "Practice? Break through the Move Blood Realm? Hao'er, you mean you haven't practiced yet, but... but how is this possible!"
He heard what those old servants said about what happened this morning. Wu Xian killed the wicked servants in the outer courtyard with his own power, and later went to Chongyun Town to make a scene.
Although he didn't know the result, seeing Wu Xian return safely and bring back a pile of treasures, those who monitored them would definitely not have a good end.
And with such strength, in the old man's experience, Wu Xian at least has the combat power of the Transform Spirit Realm, or even stronger.
But now, Wu Xian told him that he had never practiced, and wanted him to help guide him to break through the first step of cultivation—the Move Blood Realm... Isn't this a joke?
Looking at the old man's reaction, Wu Xian shook his head and told the prepared statement.
In short, he met a master in his dream last night. The other party not only enlightened him but also taught him many treasure techniques and secret methods. Then after he woke up, he possessed incomparable power, which led to a series of things that happened later.
And after listening to these words, the old man's expression became a bit strange, but in the end, he didn't say anything, just suggested leaving here to find the real ancestral land of the Shi clan, while he could guide Wu Xian to embark on the path of cultivation on the way.
