Chenxing got separated from them on the way to see Lord Gaoyue, which was considered intentional.
At that time, Ruan Xiang was walking at the front, followed by Xie Zhe, Lin Tianshi, Han Zhang and Wenying, and she was at the end of the team. After walking through the terrifying wasteland, over the dangerous grass, and through the mysterious woods, they entered a dark cave. From the outside, it looks like a complete mountain.
The strange thing is that for such a high mountain, it stands to reason that when they were still on the plain, they should be able to see the mountain behind the forest, but they didn't - the mountain only really appeared when they passed through those weird plants. Maybe they were taken through the inner spiritual veins, or maybe a blinding trick was cast somewhere. Even she felt uncomfortable recalling the posture of those plants. The balder ones look like burnt and twisted things, while the thicker ones look like they are covered in mucus, and they are not even necessarily green. The flowers, plants and trees each have their own appearance, making it difficult to guess what they once looked like. In addition to spiritual fields, are there other factors such as sunlight, precipitation, and underground water sources that affect their shapes?
The other point is after entering the mountain. Physically, they felt like they had walked for a long time. Chenxing could roughly feel that the passage went all the way down, but it was not too steep. The only source of light was the fox fire of the brother and sister, and the direction was to keep up with Ruan Fang. There were many forks on the road, and she was keen enough to sense unusual auras.
If you think about it carefully, she, Chenxing, has never had the righteousness to take the world as her own responsibility. There really is some conspiracy in the Death Shadow Pavilion. It is enough to leave the matter of saving the common people to those people. If she can't be saved, having her alone may not have any chance of winning. But that was just one of the many reasons she left the team. The most important one was probably something she discovered when passing by a certain fork. Maybe the heavenly master also felt it, but he was not too curious, but focused on the current purpose.
A wind blew from there, carrying a faint, special smell. This smell has a special, precipitated magic, and is very complex, similar to the unique smell of time in an antique store. She decisively left the team and headed there with her sword in hand. Without foxfire, she lit the sword herself.
After that, there were still many forks in the road, and she searched for them for a long time. There was no sense of direction here, but based on the feeling of the glass sword, she could detect something strange in the air. Glaze can ward off evil spirits, eliminate diseases, enhance inspiration, and purify filth. She didn't know how big the main body of the mountain was, but she groped along and finally came to a huge space.
It's no longer dark here, but there are many fireflies circling and dancing. She had seen many such insects on the way here. The interior of the space is so high that it has no ceiling, and there are huge pillars in the center, which look like stone or wood, and the material is unknown. But its shape is like a pillar inside a conch. It can be entered through a gap, and there is a cave inside. Inside and outside the pillars, as well as the walls of the space, there are grooves of different sizes but regularly arranged, each one shrouded in deeper darkness.
These fireflies feed on evil spirits, she can tell. There are many things of divine or evil nature stored here, and the spiritual power is full and rich. Fireflies eat the impurities. They didn't like her sword, and when she waved it through the swarm, they scattered. On the one hand, the insects that feed on filth are somewhat evil themselves, and on the other hand, the sword is so pure that it unconsciously purifies the air around it.
But those insects led her into the cracks in the cylinder, guiding her along the way. So Chenxing also came to the mask.
"I didn't invite you," she heard the mask say, "but since you're here, just do me a little favor."
"You are Yingyue-kun." Chenxing recognized her, "What do you want to do?"
"There's no need to be so vigilant. I can't do anything right now." Her tone seemed a little depressed. "Let me tell you, after you separated from them, they were in trouble - big trouble. It's not just them, it can be said that everyone is in trouble. I know everything here. "
"Why should I trust you?"
"I said I can't do anything because the painting where my soul resides was burned by the Shadow Pavilion - Satsuki-kun is such a cruel woman. I don't know what the purpose is, and I can't judge them. Is it intentional? Because those monsters never asked her orders. My soul can't go further because Guixiangu's shadow barrier has been set up. It only allows people under the light to
Things enter the shadow, and in the shadow, one's eyesight is completely dark, and one cannot see the real way, so one cannot leave. In other words, a one-way street. My soul is also trapped inside. But because of this, I can see what is happening in every corner of the shadow barrier. "
Chenxing asked hesitantly: "Including... Xie Zhe and the others, where are they?"
"Yes. You don't know that the evil messenger of wrong view has been born - that is She Zishu. And there is nothing you and I can do about it."
"She...isn't she really a human?"
"It's a long story. Yes and no."
"Where is Yin Hu?"
"Originally, the evil envoy of the thief stole her body from the underworld and hid it in the cracks at the bottom of the Ten Thousand Gu Pond. With her as a condition, letting her living sister see her would allow her to let go of her defenses and help her. I bewitched. Then, I was able to find a way to leave the shadow barrier... To this end, I reached an agreement with Ye Xuici, and I even used Jiao Mo."
"...Her sister, Ling Huan, is here? And the one you mentioned - the shark?"
The information was too complicated and Chenxing couldn't understand it for a while. She even suspected that the scheming Yingyue Jun was lying to her.
"She is dead. She and Gaoyue-kun both have the power to purify the Ten Thousand Gu Ponds. As long as the Ten Thousand Gu Ponds are purified, I can get Yinyu's body from the human world. Gaoyue-kun was originally responsible for the purification, but I found that She tampered with the Warlock... That Gu method should have allowed her to absorb the power of the entire Qingli Lake, and use her as a medium to turn the Ten Thousand Gu Pond into pure water. But she did the opposite. Power Being supplied continuously, far exceeding her own, and even matching the lifespan of all humans - a long lifespan. I don't know what she wants to do, she is too uncontrollable, and... too crazy. She intends to squeeze out as much as possible More power is sent to this mountain and this earth, and Wan Gu Pond directly sacrifices its own dried-up life of the six realms of impermanence to purify it."
"Wait, wait a minute...what have you been talking about just now? Also, is that shark dead?"
"Listen to me. This huge technique was discussed with her. If she dies, I will not be able to escape the blame. The master will definitely hold the blame on me. I have no choice but to attract Jiao Jiao. Mo, told her that Yin Quan's body was under the Gu Pond, and as a shark, she had the ability to purify it. She did so, and everything was under control. However, the body was not there." ap.
"Where is the body?"
"I don't know, really. She's outside the shadow barrier and may not have returned to the human world."
"You lost Yin Hu. Jiao Mo was also killed by you."
The tip of Chenxing's sword pointed directly at the mask, and the bone mask made a faint creaking sound due to friction.
"...Don't do this. In fact, you were also responsible for her death. Liulixin can also purify the Gu pool, but at that time, you had already left their team. At that time, Jiao Mo became the only one I could attract. Hope. While you were lingering here, she had already paid for it - but the price was much heavier than yours."
"Is it my fault?"
Chenxing's men used a little more force. She knew that if she applied more force, Yingyue Jun's bones would not be saved. But she didn't feel owed, on the contrary, Yingyue Jun deserved it. Not only did he kill innocent sharks, but he also focused his attention on Yin Yu. Since there is no physical body to withstand the punishment of being cut into pieces by a thousand knives, let's just suffer the pain of losing one's soul.
The mask made a creaking sound and seemed ready to break at any moment. But Yingyue Jun conveyed an eerie calmness. It may be that you are really calm and relaxed, or it may be that you are at the end of your rope and you are at the end of your rope.
"Listen to me - at least, I can let you go out alone. Just wear me, just like I want to control Ling Hu. I am connected to the outside world. Although it is not the present world, at least Not this deep well with no return.”
"Why should I trust you?"
"With your Liuli Heart, I can't take over your body." The mask looked at her with a blank eye. "You have no other choice."
Are you going to be trapped here and be sacrificed by those people's decisions? Even if she survived, she didn't know what risks she would face and what hardships she would endure, and it would even be so severe that she could not imagine it - a situation worse than the worst she had seen in hundreds of years. to
There is still hope of surviving for a while if he goes out less, but Chenxing has not yet reached the point where he has had enough.
"How could you do something that is not good for you?"
"I just want someone to take me out... This is what I want to ask you to do. When you wear me, you will know everything that happened here, and you will know that I did not lie to you. I can't stay here forever. Here. Whether they lose or win, I can only stay here, never to see the light of day together with this pile of treasures, without the pain of rebuilding my body. I have nothing left."
Even Chenxing himself was a little surprised to be touched by this last sentence.
However, wearing it made her do some mental construction. After all, the accident that happened to the sisters, Jiao Mo's sacrifice, and even She Zishu's demon transformation may have something to do with her. But as she said, when a person has nothing, it is often difficult to have any evil intentions.
She has personally experienced a lot of bad people and bad things in the world, but she also knows and has seen the principle of saying good things even when people are about to die.
The moment Chenxing received the huge amount of information, he had a splitting headache. But as Yingyue Jun said, every word of her is true and there is no falsehood at all. It's just that those scenes were so real that she felt like she had experienced them herself, and she took off the mask the moment she resumed action. Chenxing gasped for air, feeling as if he had died once.
But...she seems to have really come out.
The surrounding environment was completely different from the pitch black dotted with fluorescent lights. Everything in front of him was magnificent and so bright that Chenxing's eyes turned white. She waited for a long time before she could see the surrounding environment clearly. She stood in front of a building with a brown-red door, and in the distance were carved beams and painted buildings and pavilions.
She was holding the sword in one hand and the mask in the other. She wanted to ask Yingyue Jun something else, but the mask didn't respond. Having no choice, she pushed the door open forcefully. The sight and people in the sight made her stunned.
"Are you... Chenxing?"
In the smoke, the Master of Hundred Skeletons suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Well--"
"Your Lord Yingyue sent you here?" His eyes quickly moved from the sword in her hand to the mask in her other hand. He explained: "Yingyue Jun's consciousness has always been connected to the Eclipse Light Tower."
"Eclipse Light Tower? Is this the place of life and death?"
"That's right. I learned about the trouble from the incense burner... It's fate that you came."
Chenxing looked at her confused. She hadn't even been able to recover from the scene just now.
"I have something to ask of you."
Shi Wuqi got straight to the point and was extremely sincere.
"Something...that only you can do."
