At night, in Tianlong Temple, the fragrance of medicine fills your nostrils.
The young novice hurriedly fetched many precious medicinal materials, sent them to the temple kitchen, crushed them into powder, and then fried them into medicine.
In a quiet room, Duan Zhixing sat cross-legged, his face looking skinny and sallow under the candlelight.
The life of this great master in the past is like a candle in the wind, swaying at this moment.
The young man opposite him had warm eyes, his brow furrowed and said nothing.
This time, although they succeeded in repelling the Tubo, they also saved the country of Dali from danger.
However, only Zhou Xuanxin knew that during this battle, lives were lost in his own hands.
For him who had never had any conflict with anyone in his previous life, killing someone for the first time was truly heart-shaking.
"You said before that you would be in seclusion for a month. I didn't expect that you would achieve a breakthrough in such a short period of time."
"This time I have learned the secret, I think it will be of great benefit."
Duan Zhixing smiled kindly, but the strength in his tone was indeed gradually weakening.
At this moment, when it comes to the level of cultivation, he is at the first level, while Zhou Xuanxin is still at the peak of the second level.
But he couldn't hide it from this former one of the Five Ultimates.
"Emperor Duan, Xuan Xin's fate is all due to your benevolence."
Duan Zhixing waved his hand, as if he didn't care about the past.
"Back then, I was actually in a state of limbo. Now that I think about it, if I had done nothing to save myself, even though I had preserved my own vitality, I still wouldn't be able to defeat Zhong Shen Tong Zhenren Zhenren Chongyang."
"When I think about it again, I'm afraid I regret it too much. Even if it's the first of the five, it's not as important as saving a child's life."
Zhou Xuanxin was moved when he heard this. He knew that although Southern Emperor Duan Zhixing was the most low-key among the Five Ultimate Masters, he was also the most kind-hearted.
If the original story had been developed, there would have been no today's disaster.
In the future, with Duan Zhixing's talent, he will definitely improve his skills. Even if he cannot conquer the world of martial arts, he will definitely be as good as the other Western masters.
"I was originally devoted to martial arts and did not take care of the state affairs well. If I die one day, I hope that you, Xuanxin, can do more to protect my country, Dali."
When I say this, I have the intention of supporting the country.
The fisherman, woodcutter, farmer and Westerner beside them had long been in tears and silent.
At this moment, they all bowed down in tears.
Duan Zhixing's body remained motionless, and a burst of true energy slowly held the Westerner up.
Then, send the Westerners out.
"This time, after seeing your realm, I have seen a different scenery."
Duan Zhixing suddenly sighed.
"This time, I forced my energy to go into battle. Although I had a close fight with the Tibetan master, it still caused serious old injuries. Even if I have medicine to maintain it, it is only a drop in the bucket."
"It's just a good year."
After hearing what Duan Zhixing said, Zhou Xuanxin learned about it.
It turned out that before his arrival, although the fishermen, woodcutter, farmers and Westerners were lucky enough to win a few battles, they did not last long.
Duan Zhixing forced himself to use his inner strength and fought with Tibetan masters for several days.
Almost one man fought fiercely in most of the Tubo martial arts world.
Afterwards, he fought with Jiumozhi for more than ninety moves, and resisted Jinlun Dharma King with his internal strength for several hours.
After successive battles, the oil and lamps dried up, and the meridians were severely damaged.
In addition, Zhou Xuanxin also knew that Duan Zhixing's old injury was divided into two parts.
The first is that he used his weak body to forcefully break through and fight fiercely in Huashan for several days and nights.
Secondly, when he returned from Huashan, he had a hard fight with a swordsman master, which left him with deeper injuries.
And the master of swordsmanship can also be regarded as a leader in the world, a talented person.
With his sword cultivation, he has reached the pinnacle.
Arrogantly looking down on all the people in the world as nothing.
Even Duan Zhixing, who had just won the title of Southern Emperor, could only hold on to ten moves and was defeated due to internal injuries.
As for the swordsman master, he is familiar with it.
This person is hard to find, but he is a well-known casual cultivator in the world.
His compound surname was Dugu, and his given name was Qiubai.
Zhou Xuanxin was secretly frightened. In his impression, the sword demon Dugu Qiubai was a legendary figure who lived in his lines.
Not long after, the soup was cooked, and Duan Zhixing drank the bowl with a wry smile.
"It's a drop in the bucket, but I can't refuse."
"When I am here, the name of the Southern Emperor can intimidate the southeast. If one day I am no longer alive, I am afraid that Dali will fall into war again."
Zhou Xuanxin nodded. As everyone knows, Dali Kingdom now has three top martial arts: Yiyang Finger, Xiantian Kung Fu and Six Meridians Divine Sword.
Once there are no martial arts masters to control the formation, not to mention the powerful Tubo, even the ordinary sects in the territory will dare to come and make noises.
"These martial arts, if I were alive, would still be considered treasures, but if I really die, it would be a disaster rather than a blessing."
Zhou Xuan's heart pounded.
Doesn’t he want me to protect the country for him?
"I look across the civil and military dynasties, and among the many sects in Dali Kingdom, there is really no one who can trust me as much as you, Xuanxin."
"The fate of Dali's country rests with you alone."
Well, you old man, you really have this intention.
It's quite sincere.
But if you stay in Dali, you will eventually finish reading all the classics.
I am destined to travel far and wide to read more martial arts classics.
"What? Could it be that you don't want to?"
Zhou Xuanxin was silent for a moment.
"One year."
"I will only rule the country for you for one year."
"I'm leaving Dali."
Duan Zhixing's heart sank.
"It's a pity that the people of my country can only sleep in peace for one year."
Zhou Xuanxin stood up slowly. His goal was not to become king in a corner, nor to guard any country.
Instead, read the collection, achieve the pinnacle of martial arts, and aspire to become a heavenly being!
How can we linger?
But he just stood up, feeling softer in his heart.
Looking at the depressed Duan Zhixing, he said slowly.
"In one year, I can reach the peak of the first rank. I will keep you safe this year."
"After one year, you will defend your own country."
His words were a bit cold, but extremely firm.
Duan Zhixing looked over with slightly shocked eyes.
But at this moment, Zhou Xuanxin's young and handsome face looked extremely determined.
"It's only been a year and the world is still uncertain. Since you still have a chance to survive, why did you give up so early?"
"Who set the date for you?"
"Can't you decide your own life?"
Duan Zhixing only felt a shock in his heart!
The young man in front of him has a vague determination to conquer the sky and refuse to accept the will of heaven!
In comparison, the king of his own country seems dejected and self-inflicted. Isn't it a joke?
Zhou Xuanxin slowly opened the door, and the cool night breeze blew in.
The moment he was going out, Zhou Xuanxin's words came slowly.
"There are things mixed together, born in advance of heaven and earth. Silent and lonely, independent and unchanging, moving around without peril, it can be the mother of heaven and earth."
Duan Zhixing felt agitated when he heard this: This is the general outline that is always missing in the innate skills!
“There is no pursuit of the past, and innate nature is hard to find, so why not break it and stand up again, and chase after it?”
"Such a wonderful skill is enough to regenerate creation, but the key to rebirth is in a desperate situation."
"Emperor Duan, I would like to ask at this moment, who in the world is more suitable for this method than you?"
After saying that, Zhou Xuanxin strode forward.
Duan Zhixing kept smiling bitterly in the quiet room.
Throughout my life, I have always thought that I am not weak to others, but at the critical moment of life and death, I am not as free and strong as a young man.
It’s hard to find something innate, so why not break it and build it up later?
Very true!
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Duan Zhixing's eyes. The innate secret he just heard was a life-saving fairy grass!
At this moment, after a sudden realization, Duan Zhixing once again exuded a calm and free imperial aura.
Why be afraid of giving it a try?
He looked at the boy's retreating back and shouted loudly.
"Thank you Xuan Xin!"
"Don't forget, you promised me to continue reading at Tianlong Temple!"
Under the night sky, the young man's smiling words came.
