...

For two years, when all the students of the holy land were so busy that they were exhausted to rebuild the holy land, they would look up at the majestic monument. With just one glance, it seemed that physical and mental fatigue would be replaced by a bloody feeling, and they would regain infinite power and stand up again. Especially when they saw the two words bigger than any name on the monument, they all showed a hint of gratitude and admiration from the bottom of their hearts.

Ou Chuyang, a name that is very ordinary outside, has a reputation as comparable to Xuyang in the holy land. If it is a kind of great kindness for Xuyang to come to rescue all the people in the holy land from the mouths of the spirit beasts in time, then Ou Chuyang saved the formation and reshape the vitality pool in order to preserve the entire holy land, and sacrificed himself to allow all students to stay here to practice and grow, which makes these holy land students who have become obsessed with martial arts and become obsessed with and grateful. After all, Ou Chuyang used his life to win more opportunities for growth for them, and saved a lot of time during the endless journey of cultivation. Therefore, when people saw the two words Ou Chuyang, they all looked at it with the most respectful eyes, and they obeyed a deep silence for these two words in their hearts to express their grief.

Under the monument of the holy land, a woman in white stood in front of the monument, lifted her lower body slightly, and looked at the two words that were the first on the monument with silver light, unable to help but sobbing.

"Ou Chuyang, are you still alive?"

This woman was Dongfang Xue. Xiao Ling'er sighed beside her, looking at her friend in front of her, not knowing what to say.

She didn't know how many times Dongfang Xue had cried for Ou Chuyang in the past two years, but he knew that every day, Dongfang Xue would come to the monument and stop to watch, and it took half a day to see it. Sometimes, it seemed that I remembered the past and actually forgot the time. Until someone discovered it and told Dongfang Xue's friends, he reluctantly left after the former's persuasion.

Although he was muttering himself, Dongfang Xue knew that a person was buried deep underground for two years, unless he was a martial god-level figure, he would not be able to survive for such a long time. Even though he was unwilling to accept the fact that Ou Chuyang left from beginning to end, Dongfang Xue also understood that his consolation in his heart became increasingly pale and powerless. As time passed, this iron-like fact would not be possible if he didn't believe it.

"Xue'er. Don't be too sad. I believe that if Ou Chuyang knew, he wouldn't want you to be so sad for him." Xiao Ling'er, who never talked much, has changed a lot in the past two years. Of course, this is limited to Dongfang Xue alone. She doesn't want her friend to keep in touch with her. After all, behind Dongfang Xue, there is not only Ou Chuyang, family, responsibility, and everything has to be done by her.

Seeing Dongfang Xueou not making a sound, Xiao Ling'er sighed and said, "A few days ago, the family sent someone to send a message in. Now the world is in chaos outside. The Gongsun family and Tao family of the Eight Great Family were lifted up overnight by an unknown force. The two great families, thousands of people from all over the country, were slaughtered without any survivors. As for the other six families, they were all attacked."

With his head slightly tilted, Dongfang Xue still had no expression on his face. Xiao Ling'er continued: "The Ou family in Xiaodangshan was also attacked by a force, but the person who attacked did not expect that there were two major martial arts mad figures in Xiaodangshan, the weakest of the eight major families. Therefore, the Ou family escaped a catastrophe, but even so, the Ou family suffered heavy losses. Now they can only guard Xiaodangshan without leaving their homes. Fortunately, the Feiyun Empire is good at Xiaodangshan family and sent troops to guard the foot of the mountain to prevent foreign enemies from attacking again."

When Xiao Ling'er mentioned Xiao Dangshan, Dongfang Xue's unchanging sad expression slowed down, and she turned around and said, "I know this. Someone has sent letters from the family. I'll go back quickly. It seems that the power of Ou Ming is targeting the Eight Great Family. But why is the Luo family okay?" At this point, a trace of resentment flashed in Dongfang Xue's eyes.

Taking Dongfang Xue's mood changes in her eyes, Xiao Ling'er smiled miserably: "Is it okay? The Luo family had secretly transferred everyone in the family before that. Speaking of which, the Luo family is really not simple. The transfer of thousands of family members can actually make the outside world without even a single news. It's amazing."

Hearing this, Dongfang Xue was shocked.

It seemed that Dongfang Xue was not shocked enough, Xiao Ling'er slowed down and said, "Do you know? Although the four major families of Luo, Ou, Gongsun, and Tao are not strong among the eight major families, they are affiliated with the Feiyun Empire. After all, they are affiliated with the Feiyun Empire. When something happened to the four major families, the Feiyun Empire naturally cannot ignore it. In order to save the four major families, the Feiyun Empire sent a total of 400,000 troops to the four families respectively. However, the Gongsun and Tao families were unable to rescue them and were all destroyed. The Ou family in Xiaodangshan was fine. As for the Luo family, the people were empty. When the army was searching, they found a dementia boy sitting in a wheelchair in a secret room, and that person was Luo Minghai. The real Luo Minghai."

"The real Luo Minghai?" Dongfang Xue asked in disbelief.

Xiao Ling'er nodded and continued, "So I guess, the incident of attacking the Eight Major Family is not simple, and it is not certain that the Luo family has a lot to do with this incident."

After hearing this, Dongfang Xue nodded. Of course, she knew what Xiao Ling'er said, except for the real Luo Minghai, but when she heard Xiao Ling'er mention that this incident was related to the Luo family, Dongfang Xue's hatred for the Luo family became even deeper.

Staring at Dongfang Xue, Xiao Ling'er sighed and suddenly asked, "Have you decided? When will you leave?"

Hearing this, Dongfang Xue woke up from her thoughts, thought for a while, and finally looked at the monument of the holy land, and said softly: "It's tomorrow, it's useless to stay. I want to go back and take a look at the family."

Xiao Ling'er nodded and said, "I'll leave tonight, and I hope there will be a chance to meet in the future."

After Xiao Ling'er finished speaking, she turned around and headed towards her residence. At this time, Dongfang Xue suddenly called her and asked, "By the way, how is Jie'er? In the past two years, it seems that we have less interactions."

Hearing this, Xiao Ling'er stopped and sighed without looking back: "She has been locking herself in the pool of vitality since the incident two years ago and has never come out. I don't know how it is now. However, every time I go to her place to look for her at night, I can always hear crying. I think..., Oh, forget it, let's not mention it."

Looking at Xiao Ling'er's departure back and savoring the words before the former left, Dongfang Xue was stunned on the spot.

The next morning, when the sun was still rising, Dongfang Xue left the holy land, and in the night before that, she didn't sleep all night. The evening before, she went to find Xu Jie'er, and when she was about to knock on the door, as Xiao Ling'er said, a sad sob came from inside. After holding her hand for a long time, Dongfang Xue finally had no courage to fall. It seemed that she was afraid that after seeing this friend, she didn't know what to say, so she gave up saying goodbye to Xu Jie'er. Then Dongfang Xue came to the monument of the holy land again and stood for a whole night. It was early summer, but that night was as cool as water.

Dongfang Xue left, and before that, Xiao Ling'er also left, and Huang Lang did not follow him. Although the relationship between the two has developed very well in the past two years, Huang Lang still couldn't let go of Ou Chuyang. Even if everyone said that Ou Chuyang had passed away and would not come back, Huang Lang just didn't believe it, so he stayed, leaving behind the brothers waiting for him.

As for Xu Jie'er, she continued to practice as usual. When everyone else steadily improved her strength, Xu Jie'er's cultivation speed was faster than anyone else, and it was terrifyingly fast. In two years, she increased from the primary martial arts level six to reach the level seven martial arts level. Although she did not cross the barrier of the martial arts master, she should know that the path of cultivation will become more and more difficult as she goes. Ordinary people will only increase by level one and a half in one year, but Xu Jie'er is soaring wildly at the rate of level three every year.

The departure of Dongfang Xue and others did not cause much riot. After all, everyone can only stay in the holy land for five years, just like a student in a holy land who has finished his graduation. Dongfang Xue and others' departure is no different from usual, but at this moment, a change occurred in the underground under the Lake of Shengji.

The ground, which is dozens of meters deep, is pitch black, and no one can see anything here. The roots of the tangled vitality are much thicker and more than before. In the middle of the roots, a complete crystal core is emitting a faint green light. This green light is extremely dim, and in this underground space where you can't see it, it can't play any role in lighting at all.

However, the darkness lasted for only a moment. When a low shout came from the dark underground space, the underground space suddenly lit up.

Around them, colorful crystals began to shine like lights. As these crystals shine, a young man with his whole body sat in the center of the crystals like an old tree, surrounded by crystals. The young man seemed to be a fossil condensed a thousand years ago, motionless.

He quietly crossed his head and breathed very slowly. The young man was like a dying person, without any anger.

Suddenly, a green light lit up on the young man's chest, and then dozens of crystals around the young man began to spin wildly around the young man. A sudden change occurred. The young man, who was like a dead man, suddenly opened his eyes, and two rays of light burst out from the young man's eyes.

He slowly raised his hands, and then quickly formed a handprint for cultivation on his chest, and the extremely pure purple internal energy in his body was also circulating wildly at the same time.

Perhaps because of the influence of the youth's internal energy, the green light on the young man's chest began to flee desperately, surrounded by the surrounding crystals. The young man could feel that no matter how the pure internal energy in his body chased the green on his chest, he would always be escaped by the green until there was no place to escape, and the green jumped violently to the meridians that the young man had reached so far.

At that time, the green light shone, but the young man shouted happily, and a strange and accomplished smirk appeared on his face.

"Little guy, I've been playing so hard for so long, but fortunately, with you, maybe I can open up all the meridians in my body."

The young man underground was Ou Chuyang who had been buried deep for two years. For two years, Ou Chuyang has been maintaining the operation of the small Five Elements Derivative Array. Even though the students from the Holy Outside were still practicing in the vitality pool, they thought that the huge lake with the effect of body-building was stable, but they didn't know that, in fact, the formation was still on the verge of dangerous collapse. Of course, Ou Chuyang could not understand this situation, so he did not dare to go out in the past two years. He was afraid that the formation would be unable to be maintained in the end, and without the king formation by his side, the crisis could not be resolved at all. Therefore, Ou Chuyang has been maintaining it with his internal energy and soul power.

Of course, Ou Chuyang has not maintained the formation all day long in the past two years. He found that the small five elements derivative formation would stop operating every once in a while, and at that time, he had to drive the small five elements derivative formation to run by himself. As for later, Ou Chuyang could take time to practice. But what made him extremely depressed was that whenever he practiced and felt that his internal energy had increased a little, the small five elements derivative formation would stop. As a last resort, Ou Chuyang had to spend a lot of energy to replenish it, adding one more and one more time. After more than two years, Ou Chuyang's realm had not improved, which made Ou Chuyang very angry.

However, what made Ou Chuyang feel relieved was that he had one thing to do besides practicing, which was to refine the Origin Wood Spirit. But this little thing was so smart. After two years in his body, Ou Chuyang wanted to lead him to his dantian countless times to refine it, but he couldn't even touch the edge. He was angry and Ou Chuyang and the Origin Wood Spirit started to have a dispute.

Didn’t you let me refine it? I had to bring you over and take it as my own.

After that, Ou Chuyang did not stop for a moment. As long as he was able to operate independently, Ou Chuyang put all his energy on the Origin Wood Spirit. The previous scene was the time when Ou Chuyang led the independent operation of the Small Five Elements Derivative Array. After the end, he immediately refined the Origin Wood Spirit.

During the refining process, Ou Chuyang discovered an interesting thing, that is, the little thing Origin Wood Spirit always wants to escape the pursuit of his internal energy, but he can always find a place where his internal energy cannot reach, and that is where Ou Chuyang has not passed. This discovery made Ou Chuyang very happy. It is true that these meridians could not be opened by themselves, but with the Origin Wood Spirit, many places were surprisingly connected by it, saving Ou Chuyang a lot of strength.

Since then, Ou Chuyang no longer has to rush to refine the Origin Wood Spirit. Instead, he forced the Origin Wood Spirit to escape to the meridians that had not been penetrated. Over time, Ou Chuyang's body had fewer and fewer meridians, and the Origin Wood Spirit could escape less and less.

Boom~ Another undeveloped meridian was forcibly opened by the Origin Wood Spirit. Every moment, Ou Chuyang no longer cared about the Origin Wood Spirit. Instead, he quickly used internal energy to replenish these meridians. With each meridian, Ou Chuyang felt the increase in his physical strength. Although there was no entry into the internal energy, the former made Ou Chuyang feel the heart.
