Chapter 1247: Chapter 1247: News of the Holy Region_1 Chapter 1247: Chapter 1247: News of the Holy Region_1 In fact, Ethan Smith was more anxious than anyone else.

He couldn't wait to see Emily Taylor and couldn't wait to go to the Holy Region to climb the peaks.

Next, the Twenty Great Abilities began to look for array flags.

Not only them, but the entire martial arts world seemed to be waiting for the Holy Region to open.

However, this process far exceeded everyone's expectations.

In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.

But during these three months, there had been no movement on the Ancient Array Platform.

It was as if the Holy Region had closed again, and no one came.

Many people in the martial arts world had begun to give up, secretly ridiculing Ethan Smith for giving up his only opportunity to step into the Holy Region.

The weather gradually became colder, and many people put on cotton-padded clothes.

As Ethan Smith walked through Heaven Gate, he began to worry slightly.

“It's been so long, and there's still no news from the Holy Region. Perhaps it won't open again.” Ethan Smith muttered, his face showing sorrow.

The Twenty Great Abilities were on the verge of collapse.

“I can't hold on any longer, this Holy Region is just a lie, I give up, waiting for the next opportunity.”

Some mighty realm cultivators decisively cut their losses and chose to reseal their lifespan.

“I have no chance to seal for the second time, if I can't step into the Holy Region, I would rather die!”

That night, a mighty realm cultivator forcibly broke into the Saint Tomb.

Piercing wails came from Greenwater Park, foreshadowing the failure of the forced entry.

The entire martial arts world seemed to have fallen into an unprecedented desolation.

“Is this the Golden Age? Is the Golden Age going to exclude us all? The heavens are unfair!” Someone yelled in anger, extremely enraged.

Others couldn't bear the blow and died from serious illness.

Ethan Smith was one of the few relatively calm people.

Although he was also looking forward to the Holy Region, giving up was not his nature.

“Since the Holy Region is not opening, I cannot waste time like this.” Ethan Smith sighed softly.

In the following days, Ethan Smith left Heaven Gate.

He embarked on a journey, intending to travel the entire world to seek his own cultivation path.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, a year had passed.

In this year, too many changes had taken place (among the twenty Great Abilities, eight had chosen to close themselves off, three had died, and two tried to forcibly break through and died under the heavenly tribulation>.

In the South of River, there was a small, unremarkable insect-borne shop.

There was a shabby, unkempt old man in ragged clothes, eating crabs.

He seemed like he hadn't eaten for a long time, and his posture was wild.

In front of him sat a young man with snow-white hair.

The young man looked to be over thirty, but his white hair and somewhat weathered appearance made him look older.

He held a notebook in his hand, attentively listening to the words of the beggar-like old man, like a student.

“Really, inviting a beggar to eat, and even reserving the whole restaurant.” The waiter grumbled as he served the crabs.

This young man was none other than Ethan Smith.

Ignoring the waiter's sarcasm, Ethan Smith continued to listen carefully to the old man's endless chatter.

“Old sir, please continue, I'm listening.” Ethan Smith wrote and drew in his notebook, showing great respect.

The old man wiped the oil from his mouth, patted his satisfied belly, and said, “I'm just a beggar who can't afford a meal, what can you gain from me?”

Ethan Smith smiled, “Life is full of different situations, from emperors to beggars, there isn't much difference.”

Seeing this, the old man's eyes twinkled, as if no one had ever respected him like this before.

He opened his floodgate of words, speaking true and false words in a mysterious way.

Ethan Smith listened with interest, occasionally taking notes in his notebook.

Over the past year, Ethan Smith visited many people.

As he said, he visited the upper class and the country beggars alike.He recorded everyone's life and psychology in detail.

He had used six notebooks alone just for this.

This was a kind of cultivation, a cultivation of mindset.

The passage of more than a year greatly improved Ethan Smith's state of mind.

If only Ethan Smith could use his spiritual power now, he would surely step into an even higher realm.

“Back in the day, I was also glorious, driving a big Mercedes-Benz every time I went out, I had eight mobile phones!” The old man said, raising his thumb.

Ethan Smith smiled, “Old sir, why did you need so many mobile phones?”

“One for me, one for my wife, and the remaining six for all my mistresses, one each!” The old man said proudly.

The female waiter next to them looked disdainfully at them and snorted, “Shameless old man.”

The old man ignored her and continued to tell his mixed truth and falsehood of glorious history.

From his glory to his decline, it was like the old man was telling a historical tale.

Ethan Smith envied him sometimes, and sometimes laughed heartily, getting along with the beggar like old acquaintances.

“Young man, I tell you, all the glory in life is nothing, it's the plain life that is the ultimate destination.” The old man took a sip of wine.

“You see, although I'm a beggar now, I don't worry, I just need to feed myself and my family, and I'm sure I'll live a long life.”

Ethan Smith gave him a thumbs up, saying, “You've really seen through life, old sir.”

“Of course, some things are worth having once.” The old man said smugly.

“Look at those suited and booted bosses. Do they have a chance to be beggars? No, they don't!”

The old man became more excited as he spoke, and his voice began to rise.

The waiter next to him couldn't take it anymore, she covered her ears and then turned on the TV, turning the volume to maximum.

“Breaking news, today in the East state, an unidentified crowd was discovered, rumored to be related to the martial arts world.”

At this moment, a news report suddenly came from the television.

Ethan Smith was startled and then hurriedly looked at the television.

He saw that the location being interviewed was the Ancient Array Platform!

There were obvious signs of human activity on the Ancient Array Platform, with footprints and cracks appearing on it.

“Old sir, please continue eating, and I won't accompany you.” Ethan Smith hastily threw down a thousand bucks and rushed out of the restaurant.
