Chapter 1677 Dive Deeper
Chapter 1677 Dive Deeper
Almost everything he wanted to do had already been done. There was still too much to do, and it was too late now.
"Then, let's do this first …"
After Xiang Nan left Dragon Valley and found Dali and Little Bug outside, he took out the invitation letter for the wedding banquet and took a look.
Calculating the date, there were still two months and thirteen days left before Bai Wudao's wedding.
It seemed to be more than ten days longer than he had predicted.
During this period of time, Xiang Nan always felt that every day was exceptionally long. In less than four months, it was as if he had revived once again.
After putting away the invitation letter and bidding farewell to Dragon Valley, he headed towards the depths of the Eternal Secret Realm.
For the rest of the time, he had to collect as many Holy Spirit Stones as possible, absorb the Fallen Heavenly Lightning, and then rush to an agreement that he might not be able to return to.
The hatred between him and Xuan Qingzhu had to be repaid. Now that he recalled it, the karma of his previous life seemed to be different. A slight recollection seemed to be a very, very ancient matter.
However, from the day he died as Bai Muchen until now, he had never truly sought revenge on Xuan Qingzhu.
Now, in addition to his hatred for the Bai Clan and Xuan Qingzhu, the old and new debts should be settled together.
Xiang Nan weighed the huge saber in his hand, sucked it onto his back, and rushed into the distance.
The Eternal Mystic Realm was boundless. Up until now, no one had truly explored the deepest depths of this mystic realm.
It's always been a mystery.
The division of the Eternal Fierce Beast was not clear, but its area of activity could be deduced more accurately.
That was, the closer they got to the encirclement outside the secret realm, the lower the realm of the fierce beasts, and the smaller the number of them.
Within the vast safety city, the number of Eternal Vicious Beasts was very rare. They would often wander for a few days before occasionally encountering one, and the probability of dropping a low-grade Saint Spirit Stone from their bodies was extremely low.
You can't live your entire life by luck.
This time, Xiang Nan was prepared for the worst. He was prepared to go deeper into an area that few humans could explore.
At this moment, he possessed strength, small insects, as well as his own powerful physique. With the Eye of All Lives' Dao Luck, his confidence could be said to have doubled.
At present, the farthest known safe city was the 33rd safe city of the Four Emperors Guild and the Northern Emperor Guild.
The last time Xiang Nan went to explore the Little Secret Realm, he had actually surpassed the 33 cities. Now, he had to go even farther, farther away.
With the strength to open the way for the little bug, Xiang Nan no longer had to worry too much, nor was he afraid that fierce flight would attract eternal beasts. This was precisely what he hoped for the most.
He increased his speed by a large margin. In just two days, he had already surpassed the range of the 33 Cities.
Another two days later, he walked an equally long distance.
These past few days, he had never used the Dream Dao. His realm had already reached the Martial Saint First Layer. Those Martial Saint Beetles no longer had the value to absorb. The dream body had to find ferocious beasts above the Martial Saint First Layer to absorb them before it could raise its realm.
This was the fifth day he had entered the Eternal Secret Realm.
Xiang Nan sat beside a clear stream, drinking while simply eating.
Looking at his empty left arm and empty shoulder, it was the first time in many years that he felt such a huge loneliness.
Loneliness was like the wind, engulfing him.
His thoughts flew back to the evening six days ago.
That was the night before he left Dragon Valley.
"No! I have to go with you." The snake said angrily, "What's wrong with leaving us now? Do you think I'm afraid of death? Besides, I won't die at all!"
Xiang Nan said, "You know that I will go to the Bai Clan next. You also know that the Bai Clan has the Limitless Runic Sword. This sword can kill you."
The big snake said, "I'm not afraid!"
The two of them quarreled for a long time. Finally, Xiang Nan pleaded, "Even if I'm selfish, please stay."
"If you die, no one in this world will know about my most complete experience. Only you and Little Sparrow know about this."
"If the two of you are still alive, you can at least prove that I once existed in this world. At the very least, there are still people who know that I was once Bai Muchen."
The snake fell silent.
Xiang Nan smiled and said, "In the long river of history, I am just a tiny speck of dust. Facing the millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years of time, I am just a passing passenger."
"Big Snake, big brother, you are the only one who will never change in this river."
"What do you think a person needs to do in order to be considered immortal? Personally, I think he is remembered."
"Perhaps hundreds of millions of years have passed. No one knows about Xiang Nan's existence, and no one even knows about my current era."
"If you were still alive at that time, and you still remember me in your heart, and the memories of me, then I think that means that I still exist."
The big snake's eyes turned red.
Time was an irresistible saber. In the end, everyone would be beheaded by this saber and lose their lives.
No matter how powerful a realm was, it was unable to resist the chopping down of time, but a big snake could.
Exactly what kind of existence is a person? Is it breathing, is it a heartbeat, is it walking between heaven and earth?
Xiang Nan believed that there was someone who still remembered him.
Xiang Nan said, "I am a lonely person. I have family, friends, master and fellow disciples, but only you and Little Sparrow know my most complete experience and story."
"Just treat it as if I'm begging you."
Big Snake could not refuse such a request. He also understood Xiang Nan very well. With Xiang Nan's temper, once he decided to do so, he would definitely be irreparable.
In the end, the big snake could only agree. "If you can still leave the Bai Clan alive, please return to Dragon Valley and pick up me and the little bird," he said.
Xiang Nan smiled.
"Miss Meng Die, there is a child who wants you to take care of me."
Xiang Nan handed the bird that was eating the bugs to Dream Butterfly.
There was this small and exquisite snake-shaped tattoo on the little bird's little arm.
Now, now.
Beside the stream, Xiang Nan stroked his blank left arm, and a wave of loneliness swept over him.
He had already met Little Sparrow before he could participate in the Blue Stone City Election. Over the years, no matter what happened, Little Sparrow had basically followed him.
The shortest separation was when he handed the little bird over to the Dream Butterfly for safekeeping.
But that time, he knew that he would see the little bird again.
And this time, perhaps the short-lived difference was eternity.
If he died in the Bai Clan, then that evening six days ago would be the last time he saw the little bird and talked to the big snake.
At this time, he was alone again.
There was only one thing, an old man accompanying him, and that was his saber.
Xiang Nan washed his face, tidied up his mood, and continued on his way.
The scenery on both sides flickered and retreated like an illusion.
In the blink of an eye, another three days had passed.
Xiang Nan had already arrived at an uninhabited place. He had not encountered any traces of humans for several consecutive days.
This was also the deepest place he had ever been in the Eternal Secret Realm.
In just one day, Xiang Nan had encountered thirteen Eternal Beasts in a row, but this was nothing to him.
