Chapter 179: The First Generation of Prodigies
When he was at the peak of his divine tribulation and about to break through to the immortal realm, he actually used up his essence to save a mortal woman who was almost dead.
The woman and he were childhood sweethearts, but they were separated when their hometown was affected by the war between dynasties when they were young.
Later, Wu Di left his hometown and accidentally came into contact with the practice of martial arts. From then on, he became obsessed with martial arts and devoted himself to practicing, and gradually forgot the girl who grew up with him.
But when he suddenly became invincible decades later, he suddenly felt that life was lonely, the world was boring, and it was lonely at the top.
At this moment, he suddenly missed his childhood friend, the girl who had been his childhood sweetheart.
At that time, the two had played house countless times, and every time the girl readily agreed to his joking words of marrying her.
He recalled his innocent childhood love, and the twelve-year-old girl who was dragged away by her family when the war broke out. Before leaving, she cried and said to him, "Brother Wu, you must come find me in the future. I will always wait for you."
At that time, the young Wu Di was only thirteen years old. He was young and naive, and did not understand his own thoughts, let alone the meaning of the girl's words.
But at that time he felt a little bitter in his heart, as if someone had poured a lot of mud into his heart and it quickly solidified, making it difficult for him to breathe.
After he attained enlightenment, he recalled this relationship and felt a sense of loss. He suddenly realized what he had missed.
So he began to frantically search the world for the girl.
He searched for a long time, and finally found the old "girl" with a dusty face and frosted hair in a small mountain village.
He recognized her immediately, and the 'girl' recognized him immediately as well.
The two looked at each other in silence, with tears streaming down their faces.
At that time, Wu Di felt complicated and painful. He originally thought that he had the best life, but in fact he missed the most beautiful life.
The 'girl' at that time was very grateful, grateful that she saw the regrets of her youth at the moment of parting.
Yes, the 'girl' has run out of lifespan and is about to die.
At this time, the "girl" had no family around her, because she had been waiting for him and never got married, until she became an old woman and was about to die.
Wu Di couldn't accept the girl's departure, so he wanted to forcibly send her his true energy to save her.
But it was only then that they discovered that not only had the 'girl' run out of lifespan, but she was even stabbed in the chest by thieves when they stole treasures from her home before she died. Her blood was almost drained, and now even gods could not save her.
Wu Di was in great pain and resolutely chose to consume his own essence of the Great Dao to prolong his life.
The 'girl' was saved by his extremely powerful divine origin, and successfully came back from the gates of hell and was able to continue her life.
Wu Di continued to transfer his essence to the "girl" many times, restoring her to her youthful appearance.
The two people who had lost and found their child cried with joy and hugged each other and cried bitterly.
However, Wu Di also lost the only chance in ten thousand years to break the curse of the immortal. Not only that, he also degenerated into a celestial being due to the massive consumption of his own essence.
But he has no regrets.
Afterwards, Wu Di handed over Wu Di City, which was in charge of the world order, to his junior brother Fu Sheng. From then on, he and the woman retired and wandered in the world together.
The world feels sad, sad for the end of a great genius.
Because the consequences of depleting the origin of the Great Dao are extremely serious.
People say that he will never be able to recover in this lifetime, and may even continue to decline.
He couldn't extend the woman's life for many more years, because human lifespan is limited after all. He was not an immortal after all, and his essence would eventually be exhausted.
Originally, masters in the Divine Tribulation Realm had a lifespan of ten thousand years. If he hadn't saved that 'girl', he would definitely still be young and vigorous, standing tall in the world and being invincible.
But since he consumed his essence, people speculated that he should have passed away hundreds of years later.
Because he will continue to fall.
After that, the two of them did not appear again in the past five thousand years.
Although a generation of genius has fallen into decline, Wudi City still has many masters and is still powerful, and is still synonymous with order in the world.
As Zhuang Buyi finished his infectious words, he unfolded his folding fan with a click, and on the fan were the four large characters "A Generation of Prodigy" written in flowing strokes.
The crowd was shocked and looked in awe.
Everyone was infected by the story of the City Lord Wudi.
Cui Shenhu, who killed people like crazy and was addicted to gambling, suddenly looked sad and regretful.
Lu Bei also felt complicated and was deeply touched.
He suddenly became afraid that if he became powerful and invincible in the future, would he suffer the same fate as him, with a lonely life, only that vague and empty reputation, but no one to accompany him?
Lu Bei shook his head regretfully. This was not the life he wanted.
At this moment, he suddenly turned around curiously and looked outside the door. He happened to see an elderly couple in coarse linen shirts buying a candied haws from the vendor selling candied haws opposite, and then walking away supporting each other, with their backs showing love and harmony.
Lu Bei frowned slightly and muttered in surprise, "Your teeth are so good?"
He didn't look at it any further, but turned back and looked at the storyteller.
The storyteller Zhuang Buyi happened to be looking at him with a smile.
Lu Bei had a blank expression on his face and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Zhuang Buyi actually blinked.
Lu Bei's eyebrows jumped and he looked at the man in surprise.
He suddenly had an intuition that this guy knew him and might be waiting for him to come.
Zhuang Buyi continued his lecture.
He then talked about Lu Yunchuan, the new generation of genius and free-spirited swordsman who was famous throughout the world thirty years ago.
When mentioning Lu Yunchuan's name, Zhuang Buyi deliberately glanced at the crowd and paused at Lu Bei's face.
Lu Bei's pupils shrank subconsciously.
Zhuang Buyi took in all the changes and continued his story.
He tells the story of the fantastic and wonderful life of Lu Yunchuan, the free and easy sword immortal.
Lu Bei listened carefully and got to know his father again, whom he had never met but whom he admired so much.
After hearing the end, Lu Bei was furious. His brilliant father should not have had such a miserable end. He must investigate the truth of his death and kill all the guys who were behind the scenes to get revenge.
After talking about the free and easy sword immortal Lu Yunchuan, Zhuang Buyi began to talk about the new geniuses who had recently appeared in Shenwu Tianxia.
It is said that a talented saint lady named Zuo Xiyue appeared in the Moon God Palace, who possessed the rare Bright Moon Holy Body that existed only ten thousand years ago. The Moon God Palace might reach new heights because of her.
It is said that He Yuechan, the youngest daughter of the Kunlun Holy Sect's leader, also awakened a powerful physique that is rare in a thousand years, the Taiyin Immortal Body. However, He Yuechan encountered a mysterious and powerful opponent when she was out for training a year ago. She was seriously injured and escaped from the opponent, and has since disappeared from the world. Her second brother He Wangyu and eldest sister He Tangyue have been traveling around the world since then, looking for her trace.
