From the power of space to the heavens 2

Chapter 530 527. The Ice Emperor
This is a small bookstore.

It is also a very humble bookstore.

There are various scrolls and some paper books inside, and some words can be vaguely seen from some of the books, but on the scrolls, there are mostly maps and the like.

In this world, there is no professional term for bookstores. Magazines and maps are sold together, and even some rare books will be put together and sold according to the price of the bookstore owner.

Some magazines do have a price tag.

But more books still don't have a clear price tag.

of course.

True knowledge is often hidden in books.

It's like the gap between novels and textbooks.

Reading novels is just for fun.

That being the case, there is no need to be up for grabs.

However, by reading textbooks, one can learn some knowledge that cannot be learned in the outside world. Although no one knows whether it can be used after learning, the knowledge in textbooks is indeed more than the knowledge contained in novels.

After all, the innate settings of the two are different.

Therefore, although there is no such thing as a "textbook" in this world, books are still necessary items to verify a person or a family's background, especially those cultivation experiences that are used as essays by the strong, which may be provided for reference. A whole new way of thinking.

At the very least...

A way is better than no way, right?
Everyone has already explored a path.

Although it's a bit embarrassing to follow along, it saves time and effort compared to opening a road by yourself, and it can avoid some unknown risks.

Therefore, there are not many bookstores in this world.

This small bookstore also buys maps and magazines.

A truly valuable ancient book...

All by the owner of this bookstore!
That is, beside the old man with blue hair and a scruffy beard, the old man flipped through them casually, and then threw them on the table. The piles piled up, and the names on most of the books were no longer readable!
of course.

It's just the norm.

Some books are simply not piled up in a day or two.

It may have been opened a month ago...

It may have been opened two months ago...

Perhaps, only when these books have piled up to the point where they have to be cleaned up, will the old man make a move, simply clean up, and then continue to immerse himself in the ocean of knowledge, looking for solutions to problems with his own purpose, not for Get more knowledge.

Lu Yuan was standing outside the door.

He silently looked at the environment in the store.

Of course, there is also the disheveled old man.

It can be seen that the old man is very distressed.

I can't even say I'm in a hurry...

After all, it's been so many years...

Even if you were anxious at the beginning, after so many years of anxiousness, you should take a break...

So, now it seems that on the basis of Lu Yuan knowing some details, the anxiety of the old man turning over the book is more like a struggle of "doing one's best and obeying the destiny" rather than any real anxiety.

However, urgency must be urgency.

Anyone who falls directly from a Dou Huang to a Dou Ling will be in a hurry. Whether it is the strong or the weak, they are already used to mastering it. Once they lose, the psychological gap brought about cannot be alleviated by the status of the strong and the weak. of.

This is also where Xiao Yan's advantage lies.

During these three years of being continuously drawn by Yao Chen, Xiao Yan has truly cultivated a heart that is not surprised by honor or humiliation. On the other hand, the old man who is dying in the bookstore is the real weakling.

Even if the sunset is coming, I believe that I can take off again. The strong belief is the core point that distinguishes the fake strong from the real strong.

pity……

Do not believe in yourself, is the normal state of the world!
How many people can have the identity of "time traveler"?

They don't have the pride of this forced blessing of identity.

Therefore, it is easier to fall.

There are many geniuses who are invincible all the way to the end, but the man who can start a nightmare like Emperor Huangtian, live a magnificent, ups and downs life, and finally stand at the top, is a strong man in every sense!
of course.

Comparing Huang Tiandi, it is indeed a blow to dimensionality reduction.

Not to mention that the old man in the bookstore is not qualified.

Even Xiao Yan, the Yan Emperor in the future, is not qualified.

Including Mu Chen in the Great Thousand World, even if he is at his peak state, he cannot compare with Emperor Huangtian.

Therefore, Lu Yuan didn't have any big expectations for this old man. Since he had no expectations, he would naturally not be disappointed.

Standing at the door of the bookstore, what I saw was more of a sigh of the years.

No matter how unique you are, you will turn into a handful of yellow sand in the end. Life is always ups and downs, but more often than not, you never get up again. Tragedy always happens when a person is most satisfied. Time, among other things, happens when a person is at his worst.

The old man in the bookstore just verified this rule.

This is a Dou Huang whose talent is not inferior to Yun Yun's too much. He has a relatively rare ice-type Dou Qi, but at the most glorious time, he was hit by another Dou Huang who was also a genius. Forced to fall to the current realm of fighting spirits.

even……

Even Lu Yuan, who can perceive the present, can't do it...

You know, the current Lu Yuan did not use the power of space to cover his whereabouts, it was completely the automatic shielding of the Dou Huang's aura from the Dou Ling's aura.

However, to be polite, Lu Yuan still raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Enter."

The old man sitting in the pile of books said without raising his head.

After that, I didn't think much about it.

Pointing casually, he opened his mouth and added: "Find out what maps you want to buy, and choose what magazines you want to read by yourself. These books are not for sale, so don't mess with them."

Say something.

The old man's exhortation is normal.

This is Mo City, not Wu Tan City.

Due to geographical location, although the size and level of the two cities are about the same, the folk customs and reality are quite different.

The atmosphere in Wutan City is peaceful.

Although several families in the city often choke you to death or fight together, there are still dudes from each family. Although they will go shopping with weapons, under normal circumstances, they will not fight in the street, especially What bloodshed broke out in the street.

but……

In Mocheng...

Everyone is a mercenary, why are you pretending to be new to me?

Okay, even if you're not a mercenary.

Anyway, you are definitely not a good citizen.

Because good people will not come to such a broken place.

Therefore, let alone fighting, there are quite a few mercenary regiments fighting passionately on the street. Although this kind of situation has not been seen once in a few years, it has been hundreds of years since the establishment of Mocheng , even if a similar violent conflict occurs once every ten years, it can be regarded as a local characteristic over time.

In this case, it is almost impossible for people who come to the bookstore to buy magazines.

Especially here is also close to the Great Tagore Desert.

It seems reasonable to buy a map.

only……

Lu Yuan didn't come here to buy books!

Looking at the old man who didn't lift his head, Lu Yuan sighed softly, without covering his voice, which naturally caught the old man's attention.

The old man frowned and looked sideways.

His gaze immediately passed through the black gauze under the bamboo hat.

I saw clearly that young and immature face.

Didn't think much of it again.

Then, silently withdrew his gaze.

After reminding this, Lu Yuan can only say that he has tried his best. Perhaps the relatively comfortable environment has caused the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong to be less vigilant. In short, the other party really did not take him seriously. Here, even the most basic defense is not there.

of course.

Look at it from another angle.

The ice emperor Haibodong's reaction was actually quite reasonable.

Hai Bodong, the Ice Emperor whose realm is only Dou Ling, can't even see through the strength of a Dou Huang, and Lu Yuan's appearance is so young. Bone age is not a difficult matter for Hai Bodong, so, facing a boy who looks fifteen or sixteen years old, he really didn't think about revealing his identity.

Even if it is a hypothesis, there are no assumptions.

As for, wouldn't you be suspicious if you can't see through Lu Yuan's strength?

There are actually two key points here.

One is "can't see through the upper limit of strength"!
The other is "self-righteous to see through"!
Just like a person looking at the air, if there are ripples in the air, they can indeed be observed, but if there are subtle ripples in the air, the person cannot see them without using any auxiliary props Ripples in the air!

Therefore, in this person's eyes, the ripples produced by the second air do not exist, therefore, in his subjective perspective, there is nothing!

But in reality, everything happened!
This is actually the reason why Ice Emperor Hai Bodong looks at Lu Yuan now.

From his subjective point of view, Lu Yuan is just a young but ordinary person with no fighting spirit. Although it is unbelievable that this kind of person appeared in Mocheng, since it exists, he is too lazy to study the reason, especially the other party's attitude towards him. He can't get any help, even if he pays a little attention, it's a waste of a little.

It's not like he saw through part of Lu Yuan's cultivation.

For example, at a glance, one can only see through the opponent's fighting spirit or fighting king level of cultivation at most, and one can't see how high the opponent's realm is any further.

In this case, attention is inevitable.

Therefore, due to the above reasons, it is not difficult for Lu Yuan to understand that the Ice Emperor Haibodong subconsciously ignores his actions.

just saying...

"I didn't expect the old man to be so down and out in his later years."

"But it's not at all like the all-powerful Ice Emperor Hai Bodong back then."

Lu Yuan picked up a map conveniently.

As he opened it, he said casually.

Hai Bodong, the Ice Emperor, seemed to have heard something serious. Since Lu Yuan entered the door, he put down the book he was looking for for the first time, frowned slightly, and looked at Lu Yuan again.

This time, it was a careful look.

of course.

Still didn't see Lu Yuan's cultivation.

However, this is quite normal.

Lu Yuan, who has mastered the three powers of space, time and destiny, has basically isolated himself from other people's prying eyes. Even if he comes, as long as he does not actively release his breath, Dou Sheng will not be able to see his current state.

However, when he looked at it, he saw the cloud-shaped sword pattern embroidered on Lu Yuan's cuff, and his gaze couldn't help but focus immediately.

However, there was no flustered gesture.

He just closed the book calmly, and asked in a deep voice: "The Misty Cloud Sect and the old man have always kept the water in the well, and now, sending you, a junior, to test the old man, what do you mean?"

"Means nothing."

"It's just entrusted by others."

Lu Yuan shrugged relaxedly.

Afterwards, he added indifferently: "Besides, even if I mean something, with your current fighting spirit cultivation, at most, you can display the fighting power of an ordinary fighting king, and you can't resist my meaning at all, can you?"

"That's right..."

Hai Bodong sneered.

Take off the monolithic golden eyes.

Completely wiped off his decadent camouflage.

A cold light that seemed to be substantial flickered in his eyes.

The air seems to have become a little more dignified.

"But, you have to know..."

"Your elders of the Misty Cloud Sect are not here anymore!"

"There are no Dou Huang and Dou Wang around."

"If that old thing Yunshan breaks through..."

"Presumably, there is no need to come here to catch the old man!"

"After all, the Mittel family and the Misty Cloud Sect do not interfere with the Misty Cloud Sect. The ones who really have conflicts with the Misty Yun Sect are the Jiama Imperial Family and the Izumo Empire, including the old things in the several sects of the Izumo Empire."

"No matter what you say, there is no need to arrest the old man."

Speaking of it.

Hai Bodong's confidence seemed to be a bit stronger.

After a pause, he actually threatened in turn: "So you better show respect, little guy, otherwise, I don't mind disciplining you for your patriarch, although I really can't beat your patriarch, but now you My patriarch can't take care of you!"

Hai Bodong's meaning is very simple.

The county magistrates are better off now.

That is to say, the distant water cannot quench the near thirst.

Whether I can beat Yunshan, that is my question.

Whether you can beat me is the question now.

The two questions do not conflict.

If you were an uninformed person, you would almost certainly be bluffed by Hai Bodong. On the basis of the "Emperor" Hai Bodong exerting a certain amount of psychological pressure in the first place, he turned into an anti-client as he talked.

of course……

Even if he doesn't turn against customers, in Hai Bodong's view, Lu Yuan, who is only fifteen or sixteen years old, is not his opponent. Although he is no longer a Dou Huang, his cultivation level of fighting spirit is still enough to ensure that he can crush Lu Yuan. deep.

What is the cultivation level of a normal person at the age of fifteen or sixteen?
The slightly better one is Fighter.

Slightly weaker ones, around the seventh stage of fighting spirit.

Those who could be considered geniuses were five-star fighters.

The most talented, Dou Shi has also come to an end.

Don't blame Hai Bodong for being too crude.

It's just that Hai Bodong's knowledge is not as good as Xiao Xun'er's.

Especially Hai Bodong has been wandering in the Northwest Continent so far, and has never been to Zhongzhou at all. Naturally, he doesn't know how far a true genius can reach at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

However, although this division is too rough and has no reference value at all, it is still relatively pertinent in the Northwest Continent.

Just like Nalan Yanran.

In the Misty Cloud Sect, he is known as an unborn genius. Many deacons and elders of the Misty Yun Sect are saying that Nalan Yanran's talent even exceeds Yun Yun's.

15-year-old Dou Shi.

It has almost reached the ceiling of the younger generation in the Northwest Continent.

This is undeniable.

Even Lu Yuan couldn't deny it.

But, this world is really too big!
A 15-year-old Dou Shi is very rare in the Northwest Continent, but in Zhongzhou, not to mention the disciples of top forces such as one palace, one pagoda, two sects, three valleys and Sifang Pavilion, even the heirs of major families in an ordinary city in Zhongzhou, They can all become Dou Shi around the age of fifteen or sixteen.

This is the difference!
Further up, there will be an even bigger world.

In a larger world, there will be higher realms and stronger experts. Naturally, some more monstrous geniuses cannot be missing!
Therefore, in Lu Yuan's view, a 15-year-old Dou Shi is nothing, and a 15-year-old Dou Huang can appear, so what is impossible?
But in Hai Bodong's view...

Ok……

Lu Yuan is just a brat...

He's still a brat who got involved in the Misty Cloud Sect...

Otherwise, it is impossible to have no cultivation at all.

And according to the analysis of this temporary result, there will be many kinds of final results, but the final result with a high probability is that this brat did not know where to find out his current identity. He cooperates, and then becomes the other party's credit.

of course.

The final result is also subject to certain uncertainties.

After all, his current cultivation level is still Dou Ling.

Queen Medusa did not completely knock him out of the dust back then. Although there were reasons for his resistance, the current result is that he not only retained the realm and cultivation of Dou Ling, but also fought at the level of Dou Huang. Experience, as well as the use of skills in some moves.

Don't just bully him just because he is Dou Ling.

Even if there is a fighting king standing behind the other party, he can get away quickly after killing this brat, at most he will pay some price.

but……

The reason why he said that was mainly to test!

Don't look at the way he is swearing now.

It can be said that what he showed was a completely confident attitude, but no one could guarantee whether that old guy Yunshan was convulsed or not.

If Yunshan has a convulsion and comes to arrest him...

To be honest, he can't even run now.

As for, he didn't perceive any Dou Huang or Dou Wang...

What does that have to do with Yunshan?
If Yunshan breaks through successfully, he will be Douzong.

Perhaps for individual Douzong, what kind of power Douzong possesses is indeed a mystery, just like Jia Xingtian, the guardian of the Jiama royal family, he does not understand the gap between Douzong and Douhuang.

However, to the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong, or to most of the Dou Emperors who have experienced on the Northwest Road, it is no secret to them that Dou Zong has initially mastered the characteristics of the power of space.

Now that you have mastered the power of space...

It's not too much to teleport for a short distance, right?

Don't think that a teleport is only tens of meters away.

Dou Zong can't afford to lose that person!

If it is calculated by teleporting one kilometer at a time, after all, the flying speed of most Douhuang is only one kilometer per breath, that is to say, Yunshan can teleport here before he makes a move, and then subdue him in an instant.

The probability of this is very small.

But by no means nothing.

What's more, as far as Yunshan is concerned, if Yunshan fails to break through, in order to help Yun Yun, the current suzerain of Yunlanzong, lay a more solid foundation, there is no guarantee that he will not come to him or add Xingtian to play a wave of death in exchange for death. Before he died, he dragged one of them down.

In this way, Jia Ma Empire has only one Dou Huang!
And Yunlanzong only had one Douhuang after Yunshan's death!
The situation is stable again.

Otherwise, although he, the Ice King, has not been revealed to the world for many years, many people even think he is dead, but if he, the Ice King, suddenly comes back after Yun Shan's death, at that time, Yun Lanzong is equivalent to facing two fighting emperors at the same time!

of course.

The Jia Ma Empire will not act short-sightedly either.

However, for Yunshan...

The initiative can only be held in the hands of Misty Cloud Sect!

It is irresponsible to the Yunlanzong to entrust the fate of the Yunlanzong in the hands of anyone other than the top and bottom of the Yunlanzong!
By heart.

Hai Bodong's analysis is very good.

Even the analysis of Yunshan is spot on.

The former Yunshan was indeed a person with this kind of personality.

After all, in order to break through the Dou Zong, he actually directly handed over the suzerain position of Yun Mi Zong to Yun Yun instead of letting Yun Yun become the deputy suzerain to "manage" Yun Yu Zong. In fact, it has already shown that Yun Shan is not greedy for power Man, if there is a disciple of Misty Cloud Sect, it would not be absolutely impossible for Misty Yun Sect to develop better.

pity……

That was Yunshan before...

The current Yunshan has been lost in obsession...

It is impossible to appear here.

It is even more impossible to sacrifice his life for Yunlanzong.

Even if it's just for a last-minute glow.

Hai Bodong's temptation is purely outputting air.

Not only does it do no harm, it doesn't make sense.

Fortunately, Hai Bodong didn't know about this.

He just made a self-righteous correct choice based on his current situation, but he didn't know that the strongest person in the Misty Cloud Sect is no longer Yun Shan, but standing in front of him, hidden by Yun Yun for many years, until now Until now, Lu Yuan had to show his edge!

Lu Yuan instantly comprehended the metaphor and temptation of the Ice Emperor Haibodong.

Laughing and shaking his head.

There is no idea of ​​pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

After a pause, in front of Hai Bodong, he spread out his silver wings of dou qi.

That kind of dou qi that is truly at the level of Dou Huang, although a little weak, it can be seen that it is not the solid Dou Qi of eight-star or nine-star Dou Huang, but it is still at the level of Dou Huang!

Hai Bodong's eyes widened in disbelief.

The arm was raised involuntarily.

The index finger touched Lu Yuan lightly in the air.

The lips trembled violently.

Obviously trying to say something.

However, it seemed that he had been deprived of the ability to speak. Although he was desperately assisting his thoughts with gestures, trying to break through this non-existent shackle, he still didn't say a word in the end.

It can only be said that he put down his hand in despair.

Taking advantage of the situation, he leaned against the table behind him.

Breathing heavily.

After two or three seconds, he gradually stabilized his mind.

He also stabilized his thinking.

He licked his dry lips, and even though he knew he was talking about something that anyone would think was a fantasy, he still said in a deep voice, "A 15-year-old fighting emperor?"

"Ah."

"you can say it this way."

"But my 15th birthday is over."

"Maybe, I am the Dou Huang at the age of sixteen."

Lu Yuan slowly opened his mouth and explained to Hai Bodong.

Hai Bodong's body suddenly shook.

A bunch of words that wanted to complain were held in his chest.

After all, I still didn't say it.

He looked at Lu Yuan with a look of lovelessness.

Embracing the final speechlessness, he retorted stubbornly: "There is no need to use this method to comfort me. I still know whether the fifteen-year-old Douhuang and the sixteen-year-old Douhuang are the same concept..."
