Xia Xiao's ambition is neither as high as a swallow nor as high as a swan. It is sandwiched between the two and seems very ordinary. But even if there is such a wish, Xia Xiao cannot realize it now. It is really boring to listen to a stone statue talking nonsense in this ghost place.
Xia Xiao was willing to believe the statue's words at first, but it didn't work after hearing it in the end, but it could be used for comparison. The next place to go is the Devil's Plain of Gou Longbang. But if you want to get there, you must find Que Dan. No matter if that guy's true identity is the Wild Beast King or not, it's good for you as long as it's good for you.
If you want to go to the Devil's Plains, you can't just walk back the same way. You need some external force, but the stone statue never answered Xia Xiao's questions.
"Hey! I was asking you where Quedan is? I answered your question, now it's your turn to answer."
"Don't go."
"I feel like you are his incarnation now. Since you have such strong power, it is not difficult to disguise yourself as a stone statue. But do you want to mislead me or push me into deeper darkness? To put it bluntly, what do you want me to do?"
Xia Xiao still had that extremely stubborn look. This ancient temple had long lost the protection of the talisman array. In addition to Shu Shuang and Shang Shan, there were four damaged existences that became the power of Tanghua Temple. Abandoned abandoned buildings, cats and dogs can enter at will and treat it as their new nest, not to mention characters like Que Dan.
"I can't explain it, but please believe me. You are not on the right path now. You need to return to the embrace of the people and deal with the relationship between the magic and vitality in your body, instead of falling all the time. You should know the self-hypnosis method of sleeping. You tell yourself that you are asleep at the beginning. After a while, even if you don't want to sleep, you will lose consciousness and really fall asleep."
"Don't use your perverse logic to talk nonsense to me. Goodbye."
Xia Xiao pulled Ah Zhu and turned to leave. He could definitely explain that truth better than the stone statue. He didn't think the latter's knowledge was broader than his. At least he had seen the elevator lights, and the stone statue had seen a few lightning bolts at most. Xia Xiao could also see the latter, but the former stone statue couldn't even think of it. It was not a cultivator, but it could use the power of nature.
If Xia Xiao told it that wind and water power could generate electricity, it would definitely be shocked, and flamethrowers and pistols would also surprise it. From this perspective, the previous world seemed to be very powerful, gradually utilizing nature while adapting to it, rather than blindly fighting against it.
Although Xia Xiao was not a top student and did not know everything, his common sense alone could make the stone statue feel ashamed. His mind was even clearer, and he did not dwell on this matter any longer, and entered the dark passage that led straight here.
Looking at the backs of Xia Xiao and Azhu, the stone statue was calm. It would never get angry, but everything will be sad. The waves on the sea surface cannot reach the bottom of the sea, and the hairtail fish deep in the sea want to blow the wind in their dreams, but no matter how much they want to, they will only die if they go to each other's place.
The stone statue is wiser than them, and its worries are not simple. It worries about the people of the world, because both its master and the maiden have gone against their original intentions and become completely different, hateful and hideous.
“It feels like it’s full of bullshit.”
"What should we do then?"
"Keep going south and look for Quedan."
"Are you really going?"
Ah Zhu grabbed Xia Xiao fiercely, her face full of rejection. She still wanted to live a few more years, but when Xia Xiao told her his thoughts and judgments, Ah Zhu nodded quickly, her eyes full of praise, and praised:
"What's up with your brain? I had no idea."
"It's normal. If everyone's brains were as confused as yours, the wilderness would be in chaos."
"Fuck you, you're so high when I praise you."
Xia Xiao smiled very much, but not everyone was willing to accompany him like Ah Zhu. But she was really scared, and even if she tried to stay alert, her body couldn't help shaking.
The further south they went, the stronger the cold air became. When Ah Zhu felt a chill on his back and looked back, the ancient temple was still behind them, very close, as if they had never left. The shrine outside the bridge was only ten meters away from them, solemn and dignified like a statue, staring at them as if it had taken a fancy to their souls and wanted to take them away.
After walking for nearly half an hour, I am still standing still?
Xia Xiao gave them a cold look and pulled Azhu towards the other end of the passage.
"What do you mean?"
Xia Xiao stepped on the platform under the stone statue. The ancient lines on it seemed to have special meanings, but Xia Xiao didn't care because he couldn't understand them. He believed that the founder of the spiritual contract at that time would not have the leisure to leave a record of something in such a situation at the last moment of his life. So Xia Xiao just stared at the stone statue and said in a scolding tone:
"You also said that you are just a stream of energy. Why do you dare to stop me?"
"I am not trying to stop you. I just want to lead you to the right path. You need to return to the shore instead of continuing south. The demons there will make your devil nature burst out completely. You should believe me, the Great Brander."
"You can flatter me now, but what you have been talking about for a long time is irrelevant. I asked you whether the ancestor of the spiritual contract has become a god? Is he on the moon? You just need to answer me!"
Xia Xiao was furious, with the knife in his hand already drawn. He would not speak in a timid manner. If the answer given by the statue was not what he wanted, he would chop it in half. The talisman array had disappeared, and there was nothing left by the ancestor of the spiritual contract. Leaving it here would only be a disaster.
Many people in the world know that there is an ancient temple in the south of the South China Sea, but they don't know that the stone statue in it is so stupid. Xia Xiao stared at it, which made him a little afraid, because Xia Xiao's eyes were very similar to those of the former ancestor of the spiritual contract. That unconditional domineering aura attracted him in some way, and turned into a light-like vitality, which quickly entered Xia Xiao's body and drilled deep into it.
"What is that?"
The sudden arrival of the light caught Xia Xiao off guard, but where it went was Xia Xiao's five elements space.
The khaki light dragged a meteor tail, swirled around the tree of vitality for a few weeks, and then desperately squeezed into the gray, unopened world. It was difficult to get in, and it tried for a long time without success, but Xia Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, and light emerged from them. At this moment, Xia Xiao's dull space finally had its own color.
This brilliance came too late compared to the other four spaces, but what appeared in Xia Xiao's eyes was the countless stone forests that fascinated him. The stone forests were pillars, and below them were quicksand and Gobi, but they stood straight, and although they did not soar into the sky, they were uneven in layers, some as tall as towering trees, and some as short as bamboo shoots turned into stones.
"Is this... Earth Element Space?"
Xia Xiao was stunned. He had not chosen to awaken the Earth Dimension all along. At first, it was because he was not strong enough to bear the burden, and later he was afraid that the demonic energy would pollute it. But now it seems that all these worries can be dispelled.
