After Ling Tian left Ding Ling and the other two, he walked around aimlessly. As he walked, he recalled his conversation with Moen and the rest, the various interesting things that Moen and the rest had said about his childhood, and the cute and spoiled Ding Ling. He also thought about how he had spent the past five years training his battle aura, martial arts, and magic. There was nothing that he missed about his childhood. The only person he could talk to was Uncle Yan, and now Uncle Yan had left him. How should she spend her days alone in the future…
After thinking for a long time, Ling Tian's thoughts were in a mess and he shook his head vigorously," Sigh, I don't want to think about it anymore. Since I can't make sense of it, I'll just wait for Uncle Yan to come and pick me up in three years!”It seemed that he could only hope that Uncle Yan would come and pick him up in the future.
As he walked, he unknowingly came to the River of Death. Standing by the river and looking at the winding river, it seemed to know no rest. It flowed day and night, and sometimes it even made the sound of water hitting rocks, adding a lot of color to this silent flowing river.
Ling Tian looked at the other side of the river and saw an endless forest. At this moment, under the illumination of the setting sun, it seemed so mysterious and quiet. The leaves swayed in the wind, as if they were waving to the people here, calling for their arrival. As Ling Tian looked on, he suddenly had a thought. Why don't I go over and take a look? Since Uncle Yan doesn't allow me to go out, how can I go over to the river to take a look?
At such a young age, it was the time for whimsical ideas. Once he had an idea, he would immediately implement it. It was as if there was nothing difficult in the world. As long as he thought of it and did it, he would succeed. Ling Tian was no exception to this. He rolled up his pants and walked to the other side of the river. When he reached the depths of the water, he took a deep breath and dived into the water, swimming to the other side.
After swimming for an unknown amount of time, Ling Tian dragged his exhausted and wet body and sat down on the shore. She looked at the river and sighed. How did she manage to swim over? It was really wide. Just as she was about to lie down and rest for a while, a cold wind suddenly blew, and her body shivered uncontrollably. Ling Tian stood up and stretched his body to warm himself up before walking into the forest. The deeper he went, the darker the sky became. Even with his eyesight, he could only see about three meters ahead.
It seemed that he would have to rest here for the night. He gathered some leaves and branches nearby and cast a fireball to ignite the leaves. Then, he added some branches to the leaves and the fire slowly grew. As the fire burned Ling Tian's body and wet clothes, Ling Tian felt warm and comfortable. Looking at the fire, he added some branches from time to time. At this moment, it seemed that this fire was his only support.
The sound of footsteps could be heard. Although the source of the sound was still around 10 metres away, Ling Tian's sharp ears immediately detected it. He gripped the sword in his hand and continued to focus on the fire. The footsteps got closer and closer, and finally stopped.
"Sir, can I borrow your fire to warm my body?”He spoke slowly but firmly.
"Whatever." Ling Tian replied without turning his head.
"Thank you!" That person sat opposite Ling Tian.
"Eh? Ah!" A surprised voice came from the person opposite him.
Ling Tian looked at him and saw that he was an old man dressed in a black warrior uniform. He was around 60 years old and his face was filled with wrinkles. However, his eyes were filled with vigor and it was obvious that this old man wasn't simple.
"What's wrong?"
The old man rubbed his eyes and stared at Ling Tian before saying with a surprised tone,""What a child! So small! How did you cross the River of Death to come here? Who brought you here? Where is he?"
"No one brought me here. I came alone.”
"What?!" The old man cried out in surprise again.
Ling Tian was very surprised that this old man was so surprised that he stared at him. The old man suddenly remembered that he had lost his manners. He thought about how he was still unstable despite his age, so he coughed awkwardly." What are you doing here alone? Why did your family let you come to such a dangerous place alone?”
"Dangerous? What danger?"
"Don't you know that all the magical beasts in the River of Death are of the sixth rank and above? Wasn't it very dangerous for a child to come here alone?”
"Oh!" Ling Tian replied indifferently. He remembered that he had spent the past five years in this forest, not to mention that he had only crossed an additional river. He did not feel any sense of danger at all.
Looking at the child's cold expression, the old man did not say anything, even though he had many questions in his heart.
"Little friend, what's your name? Where do you live?"
"Old man, what's your name?”
"Hehe, how interesting. You're so unwilling to suffer a loss! My name is Delin, Delinkor. Can you tell me your name now?”Delin's heart was filled with curiosity towards this child.
"Ling Tian."
"Ling Tian! Right, little Ling Tian, what are you doing here? Don't you know that it's very dangerous here?"
"I came here to take a look and play."
Upon hearing this, the old man wanted to laugh. He wanted to laugh at the fact that a child was indeed insensible. He actually came to such a dangerous place to take a look and play. However, when she saw the determination in the child's eyes, she could not smile. She sighed and thought to herself that she should be more careful and do her best to protect him. After all, she did not want to see such a young life end in this place.
Once it was quiet, the two of them did not speak. They looked at the bonfire and fell asleep after a while.
The warm sunlight of the morning sun penetrated the clouds and shone into the forest that was full of danger. It also brought a trace of peace and vitality to the quiet forest. All kinds of insects also began a new day.
"Morning! Little Ling Tian woke up so early.”Delin opened his eyes and saw Ling Tian sitting beside the fire, roasting a bunch of wild beasts.
"Morning!" Ling Tian replied as he roasted the meat. Looking at the color of the meat, he estimated that it was almost done, so he added some seasoning and roasted it for a while.
"Here!" Ling Tian tore off half of it himself and handed the rest to Delin.
Delin took the roasted meat and was very surprised. Such a young child actually woke up so early, and in such a dangerous environment, he was still able to catch wild beasts. He really wasn't simple!
"Little friend Ling Tian, are you a Warrior or a Magician? What level?"
"I know battle energy and magic. I don't know his level."
"Dual cultivation? Sigh, there were more and more people who practiced both magic and martial arts. Ever since the Yunye Empire's National Defense War, dual cultivation seemed to have become a trend. Youngsters liked to pursue novelty. They did not know the difficulty and danger of breaking through the extreme wall of MCMAU during dual cultivation. Those who could successfully break through were one in ten thousand. To cultivate one of them, one only needed to work hard. With a little more talent, his achievements would be limitless. By the way, why don't you know your level?”
"No one told me."
"No one told you! You just need to go to the Mage Union or the Warrior Union to test it.”Doehring was very surprised. Since he was able to come to this dangerous forest alone, then his strength should not be low. Why didn't he even know about the common sense of the Union to measure his level?
"Guild of Magic? Warrior Union?" Ling Tian muttered to himself.
"By the way, when did you come to this forest?”
"When? I've been here since I was seven, and it's been five years now!”
"What?!" Doehring cried out in surprise. He felt that he hadn't eaten as much in decades as he had last night. It was fine if this child didn't speak, but if he didn't ask, it would be fine. If he asked, it would surprise him. To live in such a place at the age of seven, and it had already been five years. What kind of concept was this? Doehring couldn't understand, nor could he imagine. He only knew that if he continued to be so surprised, his lifespan would probably decrease.
"Ling Tian, what are you planning to do today?”
"I didn't think about it. Let's take a look around!"
"How about this? My granddaughter's 15-year-old coming-of-age ceremony is coming. I'm here to capture a high-level fire magic beast as a gift for her. Why don't you come with me and have company?”Although Doehring knew that he had lived here for five years, he was still worried. He wanted to take care of him by his side.
Ling Tian looked at him and understood what he meant. He felt warmth in his heart and nodded his head in agreement.
