Cheng Lingyu was a little embarrassed, and his lips moved a few times, but he didn't know what to say.

Xilingyue wanted to speak, but was stopped by Meng Ninghen. The atmosphere here is a bit strange at the moment. The man in gray doesn't look easy to get along with.

The stone tablet is shining, and an inexplicable aura is flowing.

The man in gray stared at Cheng Lingyu for a long time and suddenly said, "Come up."

The sound is very old, dry and empty.

Cheng Lingyu was shocked, and he felt indescribable nervousness. He glanced at Caiyun beside him, easily opened her hand, and gently exerted force on his toes, and he flew up.

Xilingyue was a little worried and wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Caiyun.

"Ling Yu will be fine. The man in gray has saved him."

Xilingyue, Meng Ninghen, and Mo Yang didn't know about this, and they were surprised after hearing it.

"Since he has saved Ling Yu, why is he still so indifferent?"

Caiyun said: "Maybe this is his personality. If he doesn't want us here, we can't get better with our cultivation."

Xilingyue, Meng Ninghen, and Mo Yang thought about it carefully, it was indeed the case, and the worries in his heart were greatly alleviated.

On the stone tablet, the man in gray was facing away from Cheng Lingyu and quietly looked into the distance.

"That flower is on you?"

Cheng Lingyu was a little confused and blurted out: "What flower?"

The man in gray looked back at Cheng Lingyu, his eyes sharp and shocked.

"The evil heart lotus is as black as ink."

Cheng Lingyu didn't know what the evil heart lotus was, but the four words "Black and Black" reminded him, reminding him of the first time he saw a man in gray, in the deep ravine of Guihun Valley, the illusory black flowers on the stone wall.

On that day, the black strange flower invaded Cheng Lingyu's soul, touched his dreamless technique, and was sucked into the pyramid in the mysterious space.

Now he is still in the internal vortex of the double-layer Seven-Star Pyramid. The man in gray mentioned that Cheng Lingyu almost forgot.

"Yes, inside me, I didn't mean it, I accidentally..."

The man in gray turned around and said indifferently: "I have chased it for many years, crossing countless stars, but unexpectedly it appears on you."

Cheng Lingyu said awkwardly: "I...I...try to try to give it back to you, but my current state seems to be a little too low and I can't get it out for the time being."

The man in gray sighed, and felt a little sad.

Cheng Lingyu didn't know what to say, so he could only stand there without saying a word.

After a long time, the man in gray turned around, and his sharp eyes became much softer.

"Sit down."

The man in gray sat down on the spot, and Cheng Lingyu also sat down, carefully observing the reaction of the man in gray.

"Do you know what these people are doing?"

The man in gray looked at Cheng Lingyu's eyes and stared at his left eye's purple pupils, and his eyes changed.

Cheng Lingyu said: "I heard that there were divine weapons in Huo Yuze. I guess most of these saints came for divine weapons."

The man in gray said indifferently: "Wrong, most of them entered the Fire Rain Ze thousands of years ago. There are not just those who really come for the divine weapons, but there are very few."

Cheng Lingyu was a little surprised. This was a secret that he didn't know. He didn't expect that the man in gray would take the initiative to raise it.

"Is it for the divine Scripture?"

Cheng Lingyu thought of another possibility. It is said that thousands of years ago, many saints stained blood with rain in order to seize the divine scriptures. Now they can just verify it with the man in gray.

"Some people came for the divine Scripture, and some people came for the magic Scripture."

Cheng Lingyu shouted softly: "There is really a magical scripture on Jiuning Peak."

The man in gray said: "It should not be fake, but it is not that easy to get the magic scripture."

Cheng Lingyu asked, "Are you here for the Demonic Dictation?"

The man in gray asked without commenting, but instead asked: "Do you know the origin of the magic script?"

Cheng Lingyu shook his head, he didn't know at all.

"The Demon Book is the supreme treasure of Moluo Star. When the ancient star of life declines, the master of Moluo Star left his hometown with the Demon Book. After countless hardships, he finally came to the Double Star Continent."

Cheng Lingyu said curiously: "Why do you want to come to the Double Star Continent instead of somewhere else?"

The man in gray praised: "Good question, because the binary star continent is the center of the Yin-Yang galaxy, which is different from other ancient stars of life."

Cheng Lingyu said: "What happened later?"

"The Demon Book is shocking, and the descendants of each generation are amazing. After coming to the Double Star Continent, it caused a lot of sensation, and eventually attracted a warning from the god-level master. The battle was filled with the sky and the earth, and the mountains and rivers roared, and both sides were injured. The descendants of the Demon Book are said to have been killed, and the god-level master eventually fell and turned into a fire rain. No one knows the details."

Cheng Lingyu said in surprise: "Is this the truth of history?"

The man in gray shook his head and said, "No one knows the truth. This is just a legend, but most of the content should be true, but the details are missing."

Cheng Lingyu said: "I don't know which one is stronger than the Divine Book or the Demon Book?"

The man in gray shook his head and looked at Cheng Lingyu with strange eyes, as if he wanted to see through him.

"Your origin path is wonderful, but you haven't understood the truth yet."

Cheng Lingyu humbly asked for advice when he heard this.

The man in gray said: "Cultivation is a process from small to large, and then from large to small. At the beginning, lay the foundation, practice various methods, and then further evolve, and master many unique skills, but what exactly is this?"

Cheng Lingyu said: "From mortal martial arts to true martial arts, then soul martial arts and blood martial arts, this is a process from small to large. The more skills you master, the stronger your strength, and naturally you are pursuing realm and strength."

The man in gray said: "Wrong, what you pursue in cultivation is not realm and strength, but self-improvement and evolution. No matter what technique you practice, the purpose is to strengthen yourself, and that is the way to the peak."

Cheng Lingyu retorted: "If you don't pursue realm and strength, how can you protect yourself?"

The man in gray said: "There are thousands of laws in the world, each with its mystery. Some people are not good at attacking, but they have strict defenses and no flaws. No matter how powerful you are, you will never hurt him at all. This is the effect."

Cheng Lingyu put forward some other views and discussed the truth with the man in gray. He benefited a lot from it and gradually understood the true meaning of cultivation.

Cultivation is the basis, application is the best, and combining practice and use can the way of heaven.

These are the experiences of saints. With Cheng Lingyu's natural understanding, it is really better to listen to your words than to read for ten years.

Caiyun, Xilingyue, Meng Ninghen, and Mo Yang waited under the stone tablet all night, and were somewhat worried. It was not until the next morning that Cheng Lingyu came down from the stone tablet that everyone quickly surrounded him and asked this and that.

Cheng Lingyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, he didn't make things difficult for me. When the teleportation array is opened, he will take us to Jiuning Peak."

Meng Ninghen smiled and said, "That's good, we have a backer for the time being."

Mo Yang asked, "Do you know when the teleportation array will be opened?"

Cheng Lingyu said: "It should be within one or two days, we have to be prepared. I guess there will be a bloody battle when snatching the quota."

Xiling Yue smiled and said, "When we arrive at Jiuning Peak, our map will be useful."

Xilingyue also has a map on hand. It took a lot of effort to get it when she first met Taiku. It records the terrain of Jiuning Peak. Although it is not complete, it is also of great value.

Mo Yang said curiously: "What map, why don't I know?"

Xilingyue took out the map, Mo Yang and Cheng Lingyu both stepped forward to check, and there was an expression of excitement on their faces.

Caiyun also looked at it and smiled and said, "This is our advantage. We must keep it confidential, otherwise it will easily cause others to rob it."

The teleportation array is about to be opened, and all the masters on the eighth mountain are waiting and preparing, while some masters who have not yet reached the top are looking for their own way out.

Cheng Lingyu sat on the stone tablet, relaxed his whole body, and felt the world.

The man in gray sat aside, silent, with his eyes dry and silent, and he could not see any fluctuations.

Cheng Lingyu felt a kind of loneliness, turned his head to look at the man in gray, and asked, "Why are you so indifferent?"

The man in gray looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly: "This is the path to the strong."

Cheng Lingyu was dissatisfied and retorted: "The strong can live a wonderful life, full of enthusiasm, and live a life of vitality."

The man in gray said: "Time is like a knife killing the genius. When you get to this point, you will understand."

Cheng Lingyu questioned: "Is it a realm?"

The man in gray said, "It's time. Darkness can drown the light of all things, and time can erase all sadness. A transcendent life is lonely because only time is left to accompany him."

Cheng Lingyu seemed to understand but didn't understand. Subconsciously looked at the three girls below, and a faint pain appeared in his heart.

Why is this happening? Cheng Lingyu can't explain clearly.

The man in gray said: "Human growth is wonderful. Some things can never be returned once they happen."

Cheng Lingyu frowned and said, "What about?"

The man in gray did not give an example, but said, "Tell me about your past."

Cheng Lingyu didn't care and told the past.

After listening to it, the man in gray had a calm expression.

"For example, Qu Wei, if you were not in the realm of the mortal martial arts, or even the realm of the blood martial arts, would you care about her kindness? If you had changed to the realm of the mortal martial arts, and if you had gone back to Green Island and met the second Qu Wei, would you care about her?"

Cheng Lingyu hesitated and said, "It should be."

The man in gray said: "After the cultivation level changes, your mentality changes. Now you can no longer find the touching and state of mind that you used to be. Even if you meet the same person again at the same time, your mood will be different. This is the trace of time left on you, and no matter how you think you can't erase it."

Cheng Lingyu said: "Even if this is the case, you don't have to live coldly."

The man in gray looked at Mo Yang, the three women under the stone tablet, and said indifferently: "When one day they all die, even if you find a woman who looks exactly like them, do you think you will still feel the same way you did?"

Cheng Lingyu's face changed slightly, and there was a faint pain in his heart. He gradually understood a little, but he didn't want this.
