Chapter 14017 I think you guys are courting death

Moreover, the Elephant King is also skilled in magical arts, possessing many mysterious and powerful spells that can produce unexpected effects in battle.

Standing among this group of experts, Ling Xiao seemed somewhat out of place.

He was rather thin, with a somewhat youthful and immature face, appearing small and insignificant compared to the renowned and imposing figures around him.

Looking at the experts around him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing feelings, emotions, and reflections).

These people are all renowned figures in the Demon Sea, each possessing unique skills and formidable strength, while I am indeed far behind them in terms of power.

He recalled his path of spiritual practice, a path filled with hardship and setbacks.

From a young age, he aspired to become a powerful cultivator, and he devoted countless hours of sweat and effort to achieving this goal.

He had fought wild beasts in the deep mountains and forests, cultivated alone in the midst of storms, and teetered on the brink of life and death countless times.

Every breakthrough was accompanied by immense pain and danger, but he never gave up.

Now, being able to follow the young demon king to the Tianyuan Dynasty might be an excellent opportunity for him to improve himself.

Here, he can encounter more powerful opponents and learn more advanced spells and techniques.

But at the same time, he was also well aware that this place was full of unknown dangers.

The Tianyuan Dynasty is teeming with experts and fraught with danger; a single misstep could plunge one into utter ruin.

As the phoenix continued to fly, it soon entered a mysterious area.

This area is completely different from the outside world; it's like another world altogether.

The sky shimmered with strange light, some clouds emitting a ghostly blue glow. The light was cold and mysterious, as if it contained endless icy power, making people shiver as if they were in an ice cellar.

Some clouds emitted a blood-red light, eerie and terrifying, like burning blood, sending chills down one's spine, as if a pair of evil eyes were watching one in the darkness.

Some huge floating islands also float in the sky. These islands vary in size and shape, some resembling a majestic mountain peak, while others look like a giant mushroom.

Their surfaces are covered with mysterious patterns, which are intricate and complex, like some kind of ancient runes, containing endless mysteries.

Strange lights occasionally flashed from the patterns, illuminating the surrounding sky and giving people a mysterious and solemn feeling.

The phoenix soared through this mysterious region, as if entering a world full of fantasy and adventure.

During the long flight, Ling Xiao felt that time had become long and boring, and a sense of boredom surged into his heart like a tide.

His gaze swept across the phoenix's back before finally settling on the Elephant Demon King, who sat cross-legged on the phoenix's tail, exuding a calm and composed aura.

A slight smile appeared on his lips as he walked briskly to the Elephant Demon King's side. He bowed slightly and greeted him respectfully with a smile: "Hello, senior!"
In this vast and boundless starry sky, my mind is tangled with doubts, as if I were in a fog, unable to find my way.

I humbly request that you, senior, be compassionate and enlighten me, dispelling the fog in my heart.

The Elephant Demon King, who had been resting with his eyes closed and lost in his own thoughts, slowly opened his eyes upon hearing Ling Xiao's voice.

His eyes were deep and unfathomable, as if they held endless wisdom and secrets, and as if they could penetrate Ling Xiao's skin and see directly into his inner world.

He looked at Ling Xiao quietly without speaking immediately, his eyes filled with scrutiny, like a strict examiner looking at a student who had come to take the exam, as if pondering the young man's true intentions, whether he was genuinely seeking knowledge or had other motives.

Seeing that the Elephant Demon King did not respond, Ling Xiao did not feel embarrassed. His smile remained bright, and his eyes were full of expectation. He continued to ask, "Senior, I have heard that you are proficient in strange arts. Your methods are mysterious and unpredictable. You are even good at predicting the future and can see the changing trends of all things in the world."

As I embark on this unknown journey with the young demon king, I am filled with trepidation.

I'd like to ask, will I encounter any danger during this operation?

I've walked this path with utmost caution, each step fraught with dread. I constantly felt that countless dangers lay ahead, like ferocious beasts lurking in the darkness, waiting to pounce and devour us. My heart was filled with apprehension and fear.

The Elephant Demon King remained silent for a while, a brief silence that seemed to freeze time, and the surrounding air became somewhat oppressive.

Finally, he spoke slowly, his voice deep and resonant, as if it came from a distant time and space, carrying a mysterious and irresistible power: "Fate is unpredictable, just like a shooting star in the night sky, its trajectory is unpredictable when it streaks across the sky."
The secrets of heaven should not be fully revealed. Some secrets are like treasures buried deep underground. If they are easily uncovered, they may cause unpredictable consequences.

Some things are bound to happen, just like the changing of the seasons. No matter how you try to avoid them, you can't change their arrival.
There's no escaping it; it's like a shadow that always follows you.

Everything is predestined and cannot be forced, just as forcibly changing the direction of a river will only cause greater disaster.

You just need to do what you're supposed to do and go with the flow, just like following the laws of nature: spring sowing, autumn harvest, winter storage, and summer growth.

Ling Xiao frowned slightly upon hearing the Demon King's words, scratched his head, and showed a hint of confusion and resentment on his face. He then asked, "Senior, do you think we can successfully complete our mission in the Tianyuan Dynasty this time?"
That legendary sanctuary has always shrouded the Bai Ze Continent, like an insurmountable mountain. Do we really have the ability to defeat it?
And then there's the Heavenly Abyss Saint Lord, whose power has always been legendary, so powerful that it inspires despair. Can such a powerful being really be defeated?

I feel like a group of tiny ants trying to challenge a towering mountain; the hope is far too slim.

The Demon King sighed, a sigh filled with helplessness and uncertainty about the future.

He slowly said, "The Heavenly Abyss Saint Lord has been famous for a long time. Its reputation resounds like thunder across the Bai Ze Continent. Defeating it is no easy task, just like trying to cut through steel with a wooden sword."

But nothing in this world is absolute, just like the moon, which has its phases of waxing and waning, there are always times when it is full and times when it is incomplete;
Perhaps a miracle will happen.

Throughout history, countless incredible things have happened on the Bai Ze Continent; those things that were once considered impossible have ultimately become reality.

Perhaps this time, we too can witness the birth of a miracle, like seeing a glimmer of light in the darkness, bringing us hope and strength.
