Chapter 251 The road ahead is not easy
Dongjun ran over quickly and helped him up steadily.
Looking at Zhang Liang, whose mouth was only covered with blood, the old man in black couldn't help but marvel at it.
After the power of heaven and earth entered Zhang Liang's body, it lost contact with the old man. Therefore, he had no way of knowing what happened in Zhang Liang's body.
The important thing is that Zhang Liang survived, which was equivalent to passing his test.
Zhang Liang slowly stood up with the help of Dong Jun, bowed to the old man and said, "Thank you for your mercy, senior."
The old man in black waved his hand and said, "You don't have to thank me. Your survival is your own ability and has nothing to do with me. Since you have survived the test, you can leave now."
Zhang Liang nodded and said, "Senior, should I tell you something?"
Hearing this, the old man in black smiled and nodded: "I can't tell you most of the things now. Only if you explore it yourself can you understand the whole story. This is a mysterious area. It's not easy to get in, and it's even harder to get out."
"If you want to leave, you must accept the test, and you may die in the process. But to get out, you have to pay a price. Although I don't know how you got here, the fact that you are here shows that you have a connection with this place. I have lived here for many years, and you are the first mortal to walk in. You should have used the Zhenwu sword technique just now, right? I remember that was a secret technique created by the Zhenwu Emperor. I didn't expect you to be able to master it. It seems that you have extraordinary luck."
Zhang Liang was also surprised when he heard the old man name the sword technique. Because he possessed a magical skill, he did not expect that the old man in front of him would see through it. It was really unbelievable.
Zhang Liang asked cautiously, "Who are you?"
The old man smiled and shook his head: "You don't need to know who I am now. I can tell you that I have seen the one you are practicing now before, and I come from that world."
Zhang Liang was immediately surprised when he heard this, because he was practicing immortal arts. According to the old man, he must have been an immortal in the past.
Zhang Liang asked anxiously, "Old man, are you an immortal?"
The old man shook his head and said, "You are not an immortal. The path to becoming an immortal is extremely difficult. There is no hope for you in this lifetime. However, I will not say more about this. I will point out a path for you. If you follow this path, you will find the answer."
Zhang Liang nodded helplessly.
After the old man pointed out the way, he slowly turned into smoke and disappeared over the cemetery. Zhang Liang slowly saluted the tombstone, then turned around and left with Dongjun and the little golden monkey, following the direction pointed by the old man.
On the way, Zhang Liang, who learned of the situation, did not rush on. They walked slowly, no longer rushing like they had in the past few days.
Dong Jun looked at Zhang Liang who was thinking and asked in a low voice: "Are there really immortals in this world?"
Zhang Liang nodded, there are too many things you don't understand. In this world, there may be very few people who know the existence of immortals.
Dong Jun nodded. The experiences of the past few days had completely overturned his cognition. Especially the conversation between Zhang Liang and the old man. Although he didn't understand why, he understood that the old man or this place did not belong to their world, but they belonged to another world - the world of immortals. And they knew about the existence of immortals very early.
Now everything makes sense. Why did Zhang Liang never worry about the affairs of the Seven Kingdoms? Because after knowing the existence of immortals, the struggles among mortals seemed meaningless. Dongjun also understood what Zhang Liang said that day. The other world he wanted to go to was probably the world where the immortals lived.
Perhaps Donghuang Taiyi also knew these, but he had never heard anyone mention them. After a while, Dongjun asked worriedly: "Can we get out alive? I don't want to be trapped in this life."
Zhang Liang nodded: "You have to believe in yourself, and you have to believe in me. Even if we can't get through, what awaits us is not just being trapped, but real death. Our existence has been discovered by them, and they will try to end us quietly. So we can only move forward according to their route, perhaps this is the only way to have a chance of survival. I also understand something, we may have been targeted for a long time, and they have other great uses for us, so they will not let us die easily. But the next challenge may not be easy, you have to be mentally prepared."
……
After walking for a day, they stopped at a place to rest. Zhang Liang knew that those people would not let them die easily, so they were safe for the time being. After resting that night, Zhang Liang went out alone, intending to look around and look for clues to deal with the future.
Under the moonlight, he walked slowly on the road, reviewing what had happened in the past few days. At this moment, a figure came into his sight.
Zhang Liang looked up and saw a man in black standing in front of him. He was the man who accidentally discovered and injured him that night. Zhang Liang did not see any trace of the old man who appeared during the day, so he speculated that the old man might be dead or asleep.
The shadow of the man in black in front of him was clearly visible.
"You have been following us and arranging all this these days, right?" Zhang Liang asked slowly while looking at the man in black in front of him.
The man in black slowly raised his face, and Zhang Liang finally saw his appearance clearly. He was a very young man, with no trace of age on his face. Zhang Liang could not feel any power from him, but he knew that this man was definitely not an ordinary mortal.
The man in black nodded: "This is the second time we meet. I didn't expect you to make it. But the road ahead is not easy to walk on. You have to be careful."
