The old man raised his head weakly and looked down at the boy three feet away, with an ugly smile on his lips.

He didn't even feel any surprise, nor did he ask how the other party came to the underground and found himself.

Because at this time he was already in a state of desolation.

Since this young man has found this place, I guess Tang Zi'an and Wei Qiuyue will appear soon, right?

The old man thought so, and his eyes were relieved.

After a full five hundred years, he finally accepted his fate.

And the person who appeared in front of him was naturally Xia Sheng.

The reason why Xia Sheng was able to break Mu Yun's formation was certainly inevitable that the nearly a hundred chains that the old man had broken free from.

But what the old man didn't expect was that Xia Sheng came here and neither informed Tang Zi'an nor Wei Qiuyue, nor even alarmed anyone.

Because he keenly sensed a very familiar aura.

This aura did not come from the old man, because even at this moment, he looked at the old man's hideous face as fierce as a ghost in the underworld, but still did not recognize him.

After all, after five hundred years of torture, the old man has become unrecognizable and no longer has the impression of being in a state of shame.

What really led Xia Sheng here was the dark pool of spring water.

I still remember that when I first entered Luoyang, Xia Sheng asked Ning Zheng to inquire about the location of the living springs near the capital. However, the news brought back by Ning Zheng was that most of the springs within a radius of 100 miles were destroyed, and the only other ones were left.

One is located in Luoyang City, called Yuehuaquan.

The other one is located in the back mountain of Chunqiu Academy.

It is precisely because of this that Xia Sheng came to the Chunqiu Academy, but accidentally triggered the wonder of the Three Springs Moon, opened the mountain guard formation of the academy, and almost exposed his most important trump card.

Before today, Xia Sheng was curious why the emperor of the dynasty ordered people to fill in all the springs outside Luoyang City after the Chengtian Gate Change. However, he left two.

And today, Xia Sheng finally solved some of the puzzles.

It turned out that the spring water on the back mountain of the academy was not that Emperor Jin didn’t want to fill it, but that he didn’t dare to fill it. He couldn’t fill it!

Because this is a companion spring!

Because five hundred years ago, Emperor Taizu set up a magic circle against the sky in the belly of Buju Mountain!

If the lively springs in the back mountain dry up, not only will the mountain guard formation of Chunqiu Academy be completely destroyed, but the old man who was imprisoned here will be free, but more importantly, the evil spirit in the black spring will turn this radius of hundreds of miles into a decisive death!

By then, the entire Buju Mountain, including Luoyang City, will suffer from the destruction of life, all things will be wiped out, and no grass will grow!

Xia Sheng was able to know this because there was such a black seed of power deep in his soul, and the spring water planted there was no different from this spring!

And this is the source of the terrifying evil aura that Xia Sheng noticed in the muyun. It is also the aura that made him feel extremely familiar.

If it weren't for seeing it with his own eyes, Xia Sheng wouldn't have believed that Emperor Taizu actually created a ghostly black spring that only he could plant!

But what Xia Sheng didn't expect was that the reason why Emperor Taizu tried his best to lay down this spring was to imprison an old man.

Who is this person?

Xia Sheng frowned, looked at the hideous and terrifying face and the chilling smile, and slowly clenched the three-foot sword in his hand, and his righteousness was eager to try.

Although Xia Sheng came one step late, he did not see the terrifying appearance of the old man struggling here. However, he could still feel from the iron chains scattered all over the ground and the terrifying energy remaining in the air that the old man's strength level should be very terrifying.

So he was very careful to be separated from the other party by three meters, and the spiritual martial arts aura on his body was hidden and did not release it.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Sheng asked the most important question.

"Who are you?"

For some reason, listening to Xia Sheng's extremely strange voice, a burst of sorrow surged in the old man's heart. The long-lost turbid tears slowly flowed down, and suddenly a burst of heart-wrenching sadness spread in the air.

Even the old man didn't understand why he had such a physiological reaction, as if everything was natural and everything was taken for granted.

Unfortunately, half of the old man's tongue had been cut off, and his throat had been eroded and corroded by poison, so he could only make meaningless whimpers.

"Ho...ho...ho...ho..."

Perhaps infected by the sadness in the field, Xia Sheng's brows gradually relaxed, but his eyes were filled with unknown reasons. Then, he took a step forward and walked forward one foot.

It's closer to the old man.

He looked at the old man's appearance carefully, looked at the ten chains running through the old man's body and the bamboo tube that pierced into his heart, and unconsciously released the long sword in his hand.

Then he asked the second question: "Do you know me?"

The old man shook his head gently with tears in his eyes.

After five hundred years, even Xia Sheng no longer knew him, how could he know Xia Sheng?

He has been imprisoned here for a full five hundred years, and Xia Sheng is just a teenager who is only sixteen years old. No matter how he looks at it, the two of them cannot have any intersection.

But I never thought that Xia Sheng did not give up, but asked the third one: "Should I know you?"

This time, the old man neither nodded nor shook his head, but just looked at him silently. Some light seemed to burst out from his pair of blue-gray vertical pupils that should have been silent.

I don’t know if it was because Xia Sheng recognized some trace of being covered up by time, so he finally asked the last and most critical question.

"How long have you been locked up here?"

Hearing this, the old man seemed to become excited again. He gently shook the chains on his body, and then nodded to Xia Sheng.

He ordered five in total.

Not much, not much.

So Xia Sheng narrowed his eyes gently.

The next moment, a temperament that was indescribable suddenly appeared on Xia Sheng, making him feel like he had become a different person in an instant.

It is a kind of demeanor that looks down on the world, a kind of unyielding style of a king.

It seemed that at this time Xia Sheng was no longer a 16-year-old boy, but a great king who was unprecedented and a super strong man who looked down on the sky!

At the same time, Xia Sheng repeated his second question, but turned the penultimate word into a name that had been violated for five hundred years.

"Do you know Lochul?"

boom!

A loud noise exploded in horror. The last ten chains on the old man's body continued to roar. A bloody and tears came out of the old man's eyes. The old man's face became extremely terrifying. He opened his mouth wide, as if he was shouting something, but what fell in the end was just meaningless syllables.

"Ho...ho..."

The old man seemed to have used all his last strength, his body trembled violently, stretched out the chains that had grown into the bones on his shoulders, signaling Xia Sheng to look up at the sky, clenched his fists with one hand, and opened the other hand, stretching his five fingers hard to Xia Sheng's eyes.

Xia Sheng looked at this scene and thoughtfully, muttering two words: "Heaven...5..."

The next moment, Xia Sheng suddenly opened his eyes wide and asked anxiously: "Tianwu! Are you Tianwu?"
