It's not a pleasant feeling to have this opponent in the dark while I'm in the light.

The opponent can even launch a sneak attack at any time!

So Chen Xuan is now on high alert!

He had even secretly prepared the Dark Mirror in the palm of his left hand, and the blade of the Supreme Yin-Yang Sword in the palm of his right hand.

He shrunk these two treasures to the size of a fingernail and hid them in his palms, ready to use them at any time.

"You're not coming out yet? Don't blame me for being rude to you!"

Chen Xuan's tone was cold and his expression was extremely solemn. He continued to observe his surroundings vigilantly.

"Haha, little friend, no need to look, I'm right here under the tree below you."

When the voice sounded again, Chen Xuan immediately looked down.

I saw an old man in a black robe lying on an old crooked tree.

The old man had gray hair on his temples, white eyebrows, and a goatee.

At this moment, he was leaning in a slanted position, with his fist supporting half of his face, looking at Chen Xuan with a smile.

When he saw him, Chen Xuan did not finally notice his surprise, but his expression became more serious.

Because, the old man was clearly near him, and even though he made a sound, Chen Xuan couldn't find him.

If he hadn't taken the initiative to reveal his location, Chen Xuan would probably still be looking for him!

"Old man, what are you doing hiding there?"

Chen Xuan did not approach the old man, but kept a certain distance.

"That's quite interesting, kid. I've been lying here by this crooked tree, watching you let your weapon undergo the tribulation, without moving a step the entire time."

"And you actually accused me of sneaking around here? I'm afraid that's not quite right."

The old man in black robe chuckled.

As soon as he said this, Chen Xuan became more cautious.

This old man has actually been on the tree since he helped the Sky Red Gold Cauldron to overcome the tribulation?

But he never knew.

If the old man hadn't spoken, Chen Xuan would have had no idea that someone had been secretly watching him.

"Are you from the restricted area?"

Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes.

"I say, kid, not only do you have a bad memory, you're also a heartless guy."

The old man suddenly tutted his words.

"Not long ago, you experienced the divine realm thunder tribulation at the entrance of our restricted area, waking us up from our sleep."

"You were doomed to die. After all, those old guys had bad tempers. Beating you to death would be as easy as swatting a fly."

"It was me who stopped them from attacking, saved your life, and taught you the Fighting Technique."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan was shocked.

He immediately stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "So you are the senior who taught me the Dou Zi Jue. I am sorry for being rude just now. I apologize for the offense. Please don't blame me, senior."

To be honest, Chen Xuan himself had no idea that the old man in the black robe in front of him was actually the mysterious existence in the forbidden area who taught him the fighting technique.

Now that I know this, I naturally have to come forward to express my gratitude.

After all, this fighting technique has helped him a lot.

And Chen Xuan has a feeling that after practicing the Dou character technique to a certain level, it will evolve into the law of fighting!

In short, if he continues to practice this technique, there will definitely be great benefits.

But unfortunately, Chen Xuan knew too many things. Even a powerful martial art like the Dou Zi Jue could only be used after he remembered it.

"You kid, you still have some manners."

The old man looked Chen Xuan up and down, with a look of deep interest on his face.

"It seems like it's been less than half a year since I last saw you. Back then, you were just a mere Divine Realm cultivator. I never thought you'd break through to the Quasi-Divine Emperor realm in such a short time."

"Yes, yes, I was not wrong about you back then. I knew you were a rare talent."

The old man stood up from the crooked tree, put his hands behind his back and hunched over, and circled around Chen Xuan several times.

"Thank you for your compliment, Senior. I am just lucky."

Chen Xuan bowed politely.

"Haha, luck? Your situation isn't about luck, it's about strength!"

The old man laughed heartily. "But there's one thing I don't quite understand, kid. The entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are so vast, why don't you go anywhere else to undergo your tribulation? Why do you have to undergo it at the entrance to the restricted area?"

It's easy to guess that Chen Xuan must have his reasons for doing this.

"Ahem, well, I think the feng shui here is better." Chen Xuan coughed dryly.

"Haha, is it just because the feng shui is better? I think you are not honest!"

The old man stared at Chen Xuan again and again with a smile on his face.

"Just tell the truth, I won't make things difficult for you."

Chen Xuan thought about it and hesitated to speak.

"Why, are you embarrassed to tell the truth?"

The old man showed dissatisfaction on his face, "In fact, strictly speaking, you can be regarded as my half-disciple. After all, you have received a part of my inheritance.

If you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me, while I am still sober, maybe I can help you solve it. "

Chen Xuan paused, then shook his head.

After all, he couldn't just say straight out, I want one of the nine avenue metals.

"Why, you kid want to hide near the restricted area because you want to provoke someone you can't afford to offend, right?"

In fact, outside the foggy area near the restricted area, there is a group of people who are risking their lives.

For example, the descendants and subordinates of the original Ming King, as well as some other people or monsters who were being hunted.

These things are known to everyone within the restricted area.

However, as long as the matter does not involve the restricted area, the people in the restricted area will usually turn a blind eye.

Now seeing Chen Xuan's hesitant and hesitant look, he guessed that Chen Xuan must have provoked someone outside that he couldn't afford to offend, so now he had to hide in the restricted area to survive a calamity.

"Speaking of which, I did provoke a few powerful people."

Chen Xuan touched his chin, looking thoughtful.

"Oh, really? Tell me, who did you offend? If you need me to help, I might be able to help you out."

The old man had his hands behind his back and spoke in a very calm tone.

He was confident that as long as he took action, there was nothing he could not solve.

"Really? Senior, if you can help me solve those problems, I will be very grateful!"

Chen Xuan's eyes lit up.

"Well, hurry up and tell me. I only have one hour to wake up. In this hour, I will help you solve your problem and I can also accept you as my registered disciple."

The old man spoke slowly.

To put it bluntly, he felt that Chen Xuan had quite good talent, and he had a liking for his talent.
