Chapter 1011 Assimilation
Ding Mu did not rashly look for the old man, but continued to stay in the village to observe and inquire about the news.
After a few days, he found that everyone in the village knew the old man and called him Lao Li. It is said that he came to this village decades ago and then lived there, without children and no children in his life, and was lonely.
Apart from that, I didn’t know anything. No one knew Old Man Li’s past, and no one asked.
All of this is consistent with what Old Man Li said, which made Ding Mu believe it a little, but thinking that this village was also created by a secret realm, it is really not too simple to do something about Old Man Li's identity, so Ding Mu still didn't go to find Old Man Li.
But it was not a big deal for Ding Mu to wander around the village every day. After thinking about it, Ding Mu dug some clay and started to pinch clay men in front of the wooden house, and then gave these clay men to the children in the village in exchange for some food.
Ding Mu realized later that he had not had much food in his wooden house.
Ding Mu lived for more than 5,000 years. When his cultivation was unable to improve, he learned many skills, and sculpture was one of them.
The clay that was originally ordinary people was in his hands, and he could turn into lifelike clay figures in just a few minutes, and even the expressions on the clay figures were clearly visible.
The children in the village had never seen a clay man before and were curious. They would gather in Ding Mu's wooden house every day, waiting for Ding Mu to pinch the clay man before they came forward to ask for it.
Ding Mu was not stingy. No matter who came to ask for it, he would not refuse. He sent more than twenty clay figures out on the first day, almost every child had one.
As night fell, Ding Mu set up a bonfire and continued to squeeze clay figures in front of the wooden house.
This time he was pinching Lin Shihui's appearance. A few minutes later, a 20-centimeter-high clay man was pinched. Ding Mu put the clay man next to the fire and waited for the clay man to dry it a little bit.
During this process, Ding Mu sat quietly on the ground, thinking nothing in his mind, like an old man in his twilight years.
A crackling sound came from the fire, and Ding Mu recovered from his loss of consciousness, with a look of surprise on his face. Just now, he seemed to have completely changed.
He seems to be no longer the powerful Ding Mu, but more like an ordinary villager living in this village!
This discovery made him feel uneasy. When he began to try to integrate into this village, he had already begun to be affected by this village without realizing it. If Ding Mu continued like this, it might not take long, and perhaps he would completely forget his identity as a Qi Refiner, become a member of this place, and never be able to leave.
Ding Mu didn't dare to think that if there was really one day, even if he could still live, I'm afraid it wouldn't be him anymore, right?
There is even a possibility that everyone in this village is a Qi Refiner who has entered the secret realm. They have lived in this village for too long and have completely forgotten their identity as a Qi Refiner and have become just like an ordinary person.
Old Li is one of the other ones. He was not assimilated thoroughly, but it was only a matter of time.
After a while, maybe tomorrow or next year, Lao Li will completely forget his identity as a Qi Refiner and completely integrate into this village.
Thinking of this, Ding Mu believed what he said to Lao Li in his heart a little more.
But he still didn't plan to find Lao Li, because he didn't fully believe Lao Li.
If Old Li is a bait, once he bites the hook, he will really not be able to get out.
On this kind of issue, he would rather believe in himself, so he would not look for Lao Li again until the last moment of despair.
The clay man picked it up, and Ding Mu subconsciously touched the Kong ring in his hand, trying to take out a dagger from it, but he did some details on the clay man but felt the hollow.
This secret realm can make him lose all his cultivation and his physical strength become the same as that of ordinary people. Wouldn't it be easier to take away the hollow ring in his hand?
In desperation, Ding Mu could only find a branch and slowly outline the details of the clay man with the tip of the branch.
An hour later, Lin Shihui's clay figure was released. Except for the dim color of the clay person itself, it can almost be said to be exactly the same as Lin Shihui in other aspects!
Ding Mu put this clay man in the most conspicuous position in the wooden house. He wanted to use this clay man to remind himself at all times that he was a Qi Refiner from the Earth and now he has entered a strange secret realm for trial.
Only by constantly reminding and hinting to yourself every day can he ensure that he will not be lost in this secret realm.
After putting down Lin Shihui's statue, Ding Mu did not go to bed immediately, but came outside the wooden house, folded a wooden stick as a long sword, and began to practice Guizhen Sword.
The Guizhen Sword does not require mobilizing spiritual energy and sword intent, so even if Ding Mu does not have the cultivation level, he can still practice and perform it. The only problem is that Ding Mu's current physical strength is probably unable to support the consumption of the Guizhen Sword. If he stabs it with one sword, he may lose his strength and fall into a coma.
However, Ding Mu did not plan to use Guizhen Sword here, but just took this opportunity to understand the true mystery of Guizhen Sword.
When Ding Mu made the starting move of Guizhen Sword, a familiar feeling suddenly appeared, as if Ding Mu was holding not a branch, but a Yin-Yang Sword!
But before Ding Mu could feel this familiar feeling carefully, a gust of wind blew over, and Ding Mu's body shivered involuntarily, and the familiar feeling just now disappeared.
Ding Mu frowned and made the starting move of Guizhen Sword again, but the familiar feeling could not be returned.
Is this a coincidence?
...
Lu Ying's body was covered with scars, blood was everywhere, and she looked exhausted, but she still walked forward firmly.
One step, one step.
Whenever she was about to hold on, a sound would sound in her mind to make her give up, and her body would tremble. This was her constant war between heaven and man, wanting to make the right choice.
After this tremor lasted for more than ten seconds, Lu Ying's eyes suddenly became firmer again. He gritted his teeth and walked forward with difficulty on this road where there was no end at all.
At this time, did she regret it?
have no idea.
Is it worth it?
She didn't know either.
At this time, she had only one belief in her heart, that is, to persevere.
No matter how difficult it is, she must persevere. Even if she really can't persevere, she hopes that she will fall on the road ahead, rather than retreat like a coward.
...
Camille has been completely immersed in the dream of the rise of the elves. She has also obtained a Qi Refiner's Kung Fu, and her cultivation has progressed very quickly. In just a short year, she has actually broken through to the realm of the Immortal Lord!
This kind of cultivation speed is a genius in the entire Qianlan Star. No one can compare with it. She has become the hope of the rise of the elves without any dispute and is directly designated as the next elves king.
During the year she practiced, their elves had defeated the tree demons and completely dominated the tree demon forest. The changes that took place in their elves showed that their elves had extremely strong cultivation talent. In time, even if they ruled the entire Qianlan Star, it would definitely not be a problem.
Only when it was late at night did Camill ring out by chance. She seemed to have a master, but she no longer remembered what her master was named.
