step into the sky
"Chu Tiange, you go down first and take good care of the people of the Northern Region. With my identity, the Demon Lord and others will not return to the Northern Region to cause trouble in the short term!" Mr. Kong immediately gave an order, and at the same time gave Chu Tiange a reassurance.
"Yes!" Chu Tiange nodded and immediately retreated to the side, but he was walking down the mountain, which happened to be separated from Ye Fan.
"Senior...why are you?" As soon as Chu Tiange left, Ye Fan had already followed and suddenly exclaimed. In his eyes, Old Kong was still the low-key old man who presided over the Northern Region Competition. He really didn't expect that he was a peerless master.
"Haha, we finally met again. You can call me Mr. Kong!" Mr. Kong introduced himself and waved his hand and smiled: "Since you are going up the mountain, you must have chosen the road to Lingxiao Palace. Let's take a ride first!"
After saying that, Old Kong pointed to the seat in front of him and poured him a cup of tea himself.
Looking at the approachable old man in front of him, it was difficult for Ye Fan to connect him with the peerless powerful man who spoke majestic and domineeringly and used the sword of the Breaking Heaven.
"Old Kong, you..." Ye Fan sat opposite Old Kong, feeling the cramped for the first time, and didn't know what to say.
"Haha, Ye Fan, do you still remember the great changes in the Northern Region that Chu Tiange mentioned. In fact, all of this was created by me, and many sects were also invited into the Northern Region by me!" Old Kong smiled kindly, knowing that Ye Fan was sitting opposite him at the moment, and he must have been too confused in his heart, so he took the initiative to talk and explain.
"At the time in the Northern Region Competition, you and Ye Meng were both showing their sharpness. I have already started to pay attention to you. However, Ye Meng is too demonic. I had known that he was a person of the devil, but you have always made me feel a little confused and quite interested!"
When Mr. Kong said this, he laughed alone, looking at Ye Fan listening quietly in front of him, and continued to explain: "You were too weak at the beginning and were not qualified to enter the Lingxiao Palace. But he never thought that half a year later, your strength had increased by more than three times, and he was still carrying a foundation that I couldn't see through. It was really surprising. I didn't want to see the genius fall, so I saved you by the Demon Lord!"
"Senior Kong, Xiaofan is grateful for your great kindness!" Listening to Old Kong's explanation, Ye Fan instantly understood everything, stood up and bowed.
It turned out that all this was almost destined half a year ago. Although it was not comfortable to be determined by someone, it was still very good to be valued by a peerless strong man. After all, Mr. Kong saved Ye Fan's life. However, if there was a peerless strong man standing behind him, Ye Fan didn't know whether this was a good or a bad thing.
"You don't have to think too much. Although I saved you, I will not help you deal with the Blood Sect. Everything in the future can only depend on you!" Old Kong helped Ye Fan up, but he understood everything from his grateful expression and explained lightly.
Ye Fan's expression slowly calmed down, without being happy or displeased, but a hint of gratitude appeared in his heart: "Thank you for your accomplishment, for the humiliation of the Blood Sect today, I will personally ask the Demon Lord and others to return it exponentially in the future!"
"Haha, very good, backbone!" Listening to Ye Fan's bold words, Old Kong couldn't help but praise, and then looked outside.
This is the highest place in the Northern Region. The desolate and lonely scene in the Northern Region is naturally visible. Yellow sand blows, and the dry city is everywhere, which is extremely declining.
"Ye Fan, the pavilion you are currently in was originally named Luoyan Pavilion, but Lao Ji asked Chu Tiange to change it to Ascension. Do you know what it means?" The old man looked into the distance, his voice was lingering, as if it had a profound meaning that was beyond guessing.
"Is it because of me?" Ye Fan guessed with some caution. At this moment, he could not see through what the old man was thinking.
"That's right, it's because of you!" Old Kong nodded lightly, his turbid eyes were filled with spirits, and he explained proudly: "Lingxiao Palace is the first sect of the dynasty, with geniuses gathering inside. For the Imperial City Family and the Outer Region Sect, it is also an unattainable existence, not to mention the desolate Northern Region that even the sect can't even see."
"Only ascending in the Northern Territory can this opportunity be described as a chance from the Northern Territory, so I named it the Ascension Pavilion, which symbolizes your ascension today."
"Ascend!" Ye Fan murmured to himself. Standing at the top of the Northern Region, his heart was full of excitement. His current situation could only be described in these two words.
"Okay, I don't have much time, so I will take you to Lingxiao Palace immediately!" Mr. Kong's words were abrupt, and after that, he heard him blowing a strange whistle.
"Shi..."
Shortly after the whistle was heard, a bird cries suddenly came from the distance, and a huge white crane flew from a distance, stretching its wings, at least ten meters wide.
Amid the screams, the white crane's wings converged and stood steadily in front of Ye Fan and the others. His neck, which was more than six meters high, lowered his head and looked at Ye Fan on the ground in confusion.
"This is auspicious cloud crane, but it flies in the sky at a very fast speed, just like auspicious clouds flying!" Old Kong explained lightly, and took Ye Fan to jump onto the crane's back together.
"Let's go and take us to Lingxiao Palace!" As Mr. Kong said, he patted the crane's head, which immediately caused the auspicious cloud crane to sarcastically.
"Brush!" Xiangyunhe seemed to be able to understand what Kong Lao said. His wings shook and soared into the sky, with speed like flowing light, and disappeared above the Ascension Pavilion in the blink of an eye.
"Uh..." Ye Fan bumped and almost fell down on the crane's back. At this moment, he looked at the scene that was rapidly passing below, as if he was just abruptly watching a flower, and a strange feeling arose in his heart. Thinking of Lingxiao Palace, there was a hint of nervousness in his excitement.
At this moment, the Xiangyun Crane had already flown steadily in the sky, with a very fast speed, which was not much different from that when Ye Fan cast the Demon God Blood Feather, which was really shocking.
"The Lingxiao Palace is very special in geographical location. It is located in the vastest spiritual mountain in the Xuantian Dynasty. It is very far away from the northern region. At our current speed, it will take at least seven days to arrive. You can practice first, calm your mind and restore your strength."
"Seven days!" Ye Fan was also shocked when he heard this number. No wonder Mr. Kong said goodbye to him for two hours, and his feelings are so far away from Lingxiao Palace.
Seeing that the old man had already started to close his eyes and rest, Ye Fan had to sit cross-legged. He was seriously injured before. Although he had better ability to recover by using the Barbarian Dragon Divine Body Technique, he had to practice hard to fully return to the peak.
Seven days passed quietly, Ye Fan had already woken up from his cultivation. The previous Dao Tu Dan burst out to protect his master, and some Dao Tu power remained in his body, which not only helped Ye Fan recover quickly, but also allowed him to enter the mid-stage of the ninth level of the Guiyuan Realm. His strength was further improved, and he was actually lost and gained, and he went to a higher level.
Two more hours later, Mr. Kong, who had been closing his eyes for seven days, finally slowly opened his eyes, felt Ye Fan's rising cultivation level again, nodded secretly, and then pointed forward and said, "Look, there is Lingxiao Palace in front!"
Ye Fan raised his eyes and saw that under a cloud, many smoke-filled mountains appeared and were extremely vigorous, and even above the clouds, they could clearly feel it. It must be what Mr. Kong mentioned before.
"Go down!" Old Kong patted the crane's head again and gave an order.
"Brush!" Xiang Yunhe heard this and immediately swooped down and steadily descended before a mountain gate.
As soon as Ye Fan came down from the crane, he was shocked by the magnificent mountain gate in front of him. The mountain gate was naturally surrounded by two dangerous cliffs, about a thousand meters high and a hundred meters wide.
The cliff is equivalent to the facade. At this moment, there are various magical patterns carved, auspicious clouds and strange beasts, and amazing powers. The beasts and people in it are all lifelike, as if they are about to break out of the wall.
On the edge is a stone tablet like a hill, with two big characters carved by dragons and phoenixes: Lingxiao.
I don’t know how these two words are carved, but at this moment, under the scorching sun during the day, they still emit a purple light, which makes people feel intimidated and dare not be slanderous.
"This...this is Lingxiao Palace!" Ye Fan's tone was a little trembling, with a little incredible meaning. Looking through the mountain gate, he saw smoke churning inside. This was almost a real spiritual energy. Mountains rose and fell one after another, just like a fairyland.
As a native of the Northern Region, Ye Fan had never seen such a magnificent scene.
"No, look up, where is the real Lingxiao Palace!" Old Kong smiled slightly and reminded Ye Fan.
He slowly looked up and the Haoran scene in front of him caused Ye Fan to completely stunned.
I saw a giant mountain as big as the northern sunset city floating in the air, emitting a thousand-foot-sky glow. There were ten small hills around the giant mountain, which also hanged, surrounding the giant mountain.
"This..." Ye Fan couldn't speak for a long time. The scene in front of him was simply the legendary fairyland, which shocked him for a moment.
"Okay, take the jade order I gave you into the mountain!" After saying that, Old Kong had returned to Xiangyunhe.
This voice finally pulled Ye Fan's mind back to reality, and he immediately asked nervously: "Senior Kong, I wonder if you can tell your identity. Senior not only saves my life, but also helps me ascend to this sect. If you have any chance in the future, Xiao Fan will definitely repay you well!"
"Haha, if you can step on any fairy mountain above your head one day, it will be the best reward for me. You will naturally know my true identity at that time." Old Kong said with a faint smile, and he gave great hope to Ye Fan in his words.
"Ye Fan, remember, this place is the beginning, but the fairy mountain is not the end. I look forward to the day when you break through the sky!" Old Kong left a mysterious and mysterious sentence when he disappeared.
"Break through Lingxiao!" The Lingxiao jade order in Ye Fan's hand was slowly clenched. These four big words were already imprinted in his mind. Although he didn't understand what this meant for the time being, he would definitely realize the old man's wish.
Taking an inexplicably heavy step, Ye Fan walked towards the mountain gate of Lingxiao Palace step by step, his eyes were filled with firm beliefs. In front of him, a new world was about to unfold, a martial arts world that the people in the Northern Region could never imagine.
The distant martial arts dream seems to have taken another step closer at this moment. (To be continued)
