Until the moment when the sky completely fell, in that mysterious and mysterious realm, the number of black and white chains was already too numerous to count.
At that moment, everyone who had made a plea to Gu Qingyang would have thousands of chains wrapped around their bodies.
While being bound by that chain, all of them would clearly feel that they had indeed gained life.
The falling sky would no longer threaten them.
The destruction of the mysterious realm has nothing to do with them.
In just a blink of an eye, they returned from that extremely dilapidated secret realm to the wild world they were most familiar with.
This made many of them start laughing uncontrollably. However, they soon discovered that the chains had not completely disappeared.
A feeling of being trapped arises from their hearts, and it is not until they wake up that they realize the price they have paid.
The mark of sin!
These chains are just a manifestation of the Mark of Sin. Even though they are now showing signs of slowly disappearing.
But there are already such patterns on their life bones and even their souls.
This also means that they have paid the heaviest price of all. And the meaning of this part of the price is freedom.
In fact, after these people left the mysterious realm of the gods, most of the chains on their bodies disappeared. Later, they disappeared completely.
At this moment, in the world where they were, there were many skeleton battleships gathered in all directions.
Those were the responders sent by the orthodoxy behind the trialists. There should be hundreds, if not thousands, of the orthodoxy gathered here this time.
Among them, there are many super orthodox ones.
However, when the responders came here with joy after noticing the changes in the space, they wanted to respond to the people in their sect.
The number of people these responders saw was only a few hundred.
Moreover, everyone who emerged from this space fluctuation had chains on their bodies.
This scene is indeed full of weirdness. But unfortunately, these responders couldn't say anything after seeing this situation.
Because they simply don't know what happened in the mysterious and mysterious realm. They don't know if their bone cultivator is safe.
However, those who responded failed to recognize the bone cultivator of their sect.
But at the same time, those trialists who escaped recognized their fellow sect members.
As a result, an extremely strange scene appeared in this peaceful and peaceful world.
I saw many young people in tattered clothes and extremely embarrassed. They were crying and rushing towards the giant ships with excited expressions.
And these young people, of course they are not going to launch any offensive. All they want to do is vent their pent-up emotions.
However, just when these people opened their mouths and wanted to tell everything at once, they suddenly found that they could not speak.
At that moment, they discovered that as long as they didn't mention Gu Qingyang's secrets, they could talk normally.
But once they have the idea of mentioning Gu Qingyang's secrets, their bodies and souls will immediately feel a burning sensation.
At first, the burning sensation was not that strong. But as time goes by, they will have a feeling of being infinitely close to death.
That feeling seemed to be telling them in the most direct way.
Mentioning Gu Qingyang's secret is a taboo matter. If they don't do it, they will be safe.
On the contrary, if they do it, then their bodies and souls will be reduced to ashes in the flames formed by the lines of sin!
"call--"
"Junior brother, what's wrong with you, junior brother?"
"Junior sister, don't scare me -"
…
At the same moment, there were also sounds one after another above the scene. At this moment, all the trialists were a little desperate.
In the mysterious and mysterious realm, they had experienced life and death crises again and again.
Under heavy pressure, their mental state has already become riddled with holes.
To be honest, this moment is definitely the time when their will is weakest.
As long as something is a little wrong, their state of mind will completely collapse, and their practice will naturally have big problems.
Gu Qingyang's pattern of sin was so strong that these people could do nothing against him.
But it is precisely because of this pattern of sin that these people are not happy at all.
They were really devastated. Originally, they thought that as long as they paid the corresponding remuneration, they would not face other problems.
But now it seems that they were wrong, and they were extremely wrong. Gu Qingyang's methods are really terrifying!
If the Divine Desolate Mysterious Realm is compared to a cage, then this Divine Desolate Mysterious Realm can only be regarded as a tangible cage at best.
As long as you walk out of the mysterious realm of the gods, you can be considered to be completely free from the shackles of this prison and gain freedom.
But this freedom can only be regarded as freedom on the physical level at best!
Now, their bodies are engraved with the mark of sin. This is proof of that transaction and proof that they have lost their soul-level freedom!
There are some words that they may never have the chance to say in their lifetime. Of course, they can also try their best and give it a try.
The cost of trying once is probably death. How should they make a decision? After all, it's just a secret.
After experiencing anger, pain, depression, collapse... and other mental tortures, these people also regained consciousness.
They have realized what they are facing now. So what do they do?
Should he try his best once and bet that he can survive until the end even if he tells the secret, or should he be completely silent from now on?
Obviously, they are still more willing to choose the latter than the former.
After all, even if the secret was revealed, it would not have much to do with them, and it would not bring them much benefit.
They can imagine what the sect behind them will probably do once they reveal these secrets.
Their sect simply chose to remain silent, or they tried every means to obtain the inheritance from Gu Qingyang.
But so what?
Will they get a piece of the action after telling the secret? Will they have a chance to get the clothes?
No, they don't stand a chance. In fact, the sects behind some of them will not care about the lives of those people.
Compared to individuals, sects are a very special existence.
Generally speaking, when a person joins a sect, it can be considered a good thing.
After all, as long as you join a sect, you can often rely on your own strength to obtain corresponding resources from the sect.
However, a disciple of a sect is also valuable to the sect. As we all know, a sect can support countless talented disciples.
But a sect would not support a waste at will. In everyone's opinion, doing so would be a waste of resources.
Therefore, in comparison, if the price of telling the secret is death, or becoming a complete useless person.
So, is it still necessary to tell the secret?
Therefore, after being stunned for a moment, these survivors of the journey to the divine wilderness still chose to abide by the agreement of the deal.
Although they are really unwilling to do so, they also want to change this situation. But the facts are right in front of them.
In the transaction with Gu Qingyang, as the party that had been engraved with the mark of sin, they knew that they had lost their relative freedom.
However, they are actually able to accept this price.
These people themselves knew very well that without Gu Qingyang, they would probably have perished in the mysterious realm of the gods at that moment.
Instead of becoming a dead soul, just accompany the ruined world and disappear into the long river of time.
They still prefer to live.
Therefore, after a period of time, these trialists who finally survived became happy again.
At the same time, some of them were even rejoicing that Gu Qingyang did not make them pay a heavier price.
However, there are also some thoughtful people who have a sense of worry buried deep in their hearts.
And these people are really smart.
Compared to those who were lucky, they thought about the future very realistically and what Gu Qingyang could do but didn't.
Let me ask, today, he, Gu Qingyang, can use the Mark of Sin to threaten them and prevent them from telling the secret.
What happens next?
After arriving, if one day, for some reason, maybe it is due to the order of the sect, or maybe it is due to their own reasons...
For these reasons, they had to stand on the opposite side of Gu Qingyang and thus became Gu Qingyang's enemies.
At that time, wouldn't Gu Qingyang be able to use this Mark of Sin? The answer to this conjecture is actually obvious.
But this kind of thing is already a thing of the future.
Moreover, they can't guarantee that when they arrive, they will have another intersection with Gu Qingyang like today.
It is true that today, in the mysterious realm of the gods, they can still say that they are Gu Qingyang's opponents. What happens next?
Will they be able to say such things in the future? Can they guarantee that they will definitely catch up with Gu Qingyang in the future?
Some of them didn't realize it until this moment.
This trip to the Mysterious Land of Gods and Desolation seemed to be no longer as simple as a trial.
This trial allowed them to meet too many extraordinary people of their generation, and it also allowed them to witness the fall of those same generation.
Before entering the secret realm, when they saw these people of the same generation, they would more or less think that those people of the same generation were stars.
Because they thought those people would shine like stars and shine for a long time. But it turns out that some people are just shooting stars.
Shooting stars are indeed bright.
But so-called shooting stars have always been fleeting things. Their brilliance will give people a stunning feeling.
But they will also disappear between heaven and earth at an extremely fast speed. In just a blink of an eye, they will disappear forever and become part of the darkness.
In comparison, the brilliance of these people may not be so bright.
But they are still alive! Being alive means there is still a chance to become a strong person!
Even now, they are already shackles and have become slaves of the Mark of Sin.
But despite being negative, they are still willing to achieve better selves. However, just when they all became silent.
A voice suddenly sounded:
"Hello fellow Taoists from various sects and sects. My name is Gu Qingyang, and I am just a disciple of Shenlu Academy."
"After escaping to heaven this time, your fellow disciples owe me a lot of karma. Everyone, please return this karma to me."
…
At this moment, Gu Qingyang was smiling, standing in the sky like a spring breeze. And his opening attracted all the attention.
However, many of the fellow bone cultivators couldn't help but marvel in their hearts after seeing Gu Qingyang.
"What a young man!"
He was dressed in black, and his rather slender figure, coupled with his melancholy temperament, made him look calm.
In addition to being calm, Gu Qingyang's face, which was very similar to Gu Qingying, also directly captured the hearts of many bone cultivators.
In fact, this was not Gu Qingyang's original face. He was originally not very handsome, let alone stunningly handsome.
But he happened to possess Gu Qingying’s demon bone.
Influenced by his younger sister, he, as an older brother, naturally looks good now.
And if we look at it carefully, what he calls not bad is actually enough to overwhelm many female cultivators.
However, after listening to Gu Qingyang's words, all the bone cultivators present realized that something was wrong very quickly.
"What cause and effect? Junior brother, what is going on? What do you owe this ancient Taoist friend? Is it difficult to repay it?"
After just a few breaths, sounds similar to this could be heard over the scene. Many people were eager to speak.
Cause and effect has always been the thing that bone cultivators fear the most.
After all the karma is owed, if the bone cultivator is able to repay, it will usually be repaid in person.
In terms of energy, you should never wait to pay it back later. This is a principle in the world of bone cultivation.
After all, cause and effect is really too scary. Maybe, when you owe cause and effect, it's just because of a small thing.
But in the end, when the time comes, when the cause and effect really needs to be repaid, what the bone cultivator needs to pay is very likely to be something very important.
For example, life.
For example, cultivation.
…
There are precedents for things like this. How can a disciple who is qualified to come to the Mystic Realm of Gods and participate in the trial to be an ordinary disciple?
Such a disciple, placed in any sect's orthodoxy, must be raised as a treasure.
What's more, this is someone who has gone through the life and death trial in the secret realm and came out alive.
Such people tend to have greater hope of success. If the sect is welcomed back, more resources will often be poured into it.
As fellow disciples of these people, these coordinators do not want their fellow apprentices to be involved in big karma before they become talented.
"The Mysterious Land of Divine Desolate is a place left behind by an ancient civilization. The remnants of the Divine Desolate Civilization are still hidden there. All of us have been surrounded and killed."
"Many of the younger generation's peerless geniuses, such as people like Li Tianyi, died in battle. We are lucky to be still alive."
"But we did not leave the secret realm in the normal way. Just now, the mysterious and desolate realm experienced a catastrophe of destruction."
"Now, there is no so-called mysterious realm in this world."
"It's this ancient brother Gu Qingyang. Without his help, all of us will fall into the secret realm."
"So, this is a life-saving grace, and it is naturally a big cause and effect. However, senior brother, you don't have to worry about this, we have an appointment in advance."
…
After saying the last sentence, the person who spoke happily threw a ring to Gu Qingyang.
Immediately afterwards, the scene became much noisier. But at the same time, more and more people began to throw rings at Gu Qingyang.
As time went by, in just a moment, Gu Qingyang already had hundreds of space rings in his hands.
After those bone cultivators made such statements, Gu Qingyang also smiled and bowed his hands, as if he were a gentleman.
Seeing Gu Qingyang like this, the coordinators from various sects didn't say much.
But at this moment, the survivors couldn't help but have complicated expressions on their faces when they saw Gu Qingyang acting like this.
How come this kid is like this in the blink of an eye?
Is this still him?
Not long ago, when Gu Qingyang threatened them, they still remembered his appearance and manner when they thought about it.
Why did he seem to be their savior in the blink of an eye? Is there any justice left in this broken world?
However, I want to think back.
When Gu Qingyang saluted, these bone cultivators also returned the salute one after another.
There is no way, this kind of thing is just a matter of breaking your teeth and swallowing it in your stomach.
No matter how unwilling they are, what can they do?
The outcome of the matter could not be changed, and they paid the price.
Rather than lingering over fruitless results, they would rather return to their sect quickly and quickly obtain resources to restore their strength.
However, just when this matter was about to come to an end, there were three or five people in the crowd, and flames ignited on their bodies.
"ah--"
…
