The man smiled.
His smile was not very happy, but there was a hint of lonely relief, as if he had been freed from an eternal nightmare: "Qing and Chi didn't misjudge you. Since you have made up your mind, just go ahead and do it."
The hoarse voice became weaker and weaker, and his shadow became more and more transparent.
Since Gu Jianlin was promoted to the Holy Realm, his profile has the ability to penetrate into the past and the future. The man in front of him is just a trace of the soul left by the former Supreme, and exists based on the alchemical matrix.
It is similar to the consciousness uploading that humans are trying to conquer today.
Unexpectedly, in the world of the ancient gods, the answer has already been found.
The remaining power of hope has been almost exhausted, and most of the remaining power has been used on the battlefield of Mount Kailash. What is left now is like a candle in the wind, and will be annihilated at any time.
The Ancient Supreme is immortal, but he is no longer an ancient god.
"What happens if we fail?"
He hesitated again and again and asked the question.
"The original will be born on this planet, and the spirituality accumulated in the inheritance path will be swallowed by him. It will be difficult for ordinary humans to survive here. If the original is willing, it can enslave all the sublimated people on the earth. As for the ancient supreme, the original It can even put you into...sleep."
The man stared into his eyes: "The Suzaku who controls the original will become the strongest in history."
Gu Jianlin was silent for a moment and nodded slightly: "I understand."
The man glanced at him: "Suzaku is very powerful, but it is not without its weaknesses."
Gu Jianlin frowned and said, "Me?"
The man hummed: "Understanding the curse of the Suzaku clan is the key to defeating him. Why did we choose you, why did he insist on killing you, because only you can crack this mystery. I said, your existence is also a paradox Now that you understand the nature of profiling, you might as well think about when it first appeared."
Gu Jianlin woke up suddenly, with cold sweat breaking out from his back.
When he mastered profiling, he had not yet inherited the personality of Qilin.
"Think about this answer clearly before going to Suzaku."
The man raised his hand, and a yellowed ancient book materialized out of thin air and was handed to him.
"What's this?"
"The spiritual genetic code of the Qilin clan."
"What's the meaning?"
"The ancient gods are immortal beings. The ancient supreme beings are almost irreplaceable. From ancient times to the present, only she and I have broken through this shackles. This is a miracle that cannot be copied. Just like she has achieved me, just like I have achieved you. But For the ancient ancestors, they can be replaced, even if their souls die, it doesn’t matter, because the divine marrow can be recreated according to the coding of spiritual genes, only using the bones and blood of the Supreme.”
"I remember that the ancestor of the Kui bird was completely dead, right?"
"Yes, but the divine marrow can create new Kui birds."
"The same goes for the ancestor of the ghost car."
"Gui Che's soul has been burnt to ashes by you. He is no longer in this world."
"You mean, I can create a new ancestor?"
"The premise is that the traitors brought by Qing are completely dead... Of course, you can also kill them."
"Is this your punishment for them?"
"No, this is compensation for you."
Gu Jianlin was stunned.
The man looked at the young man in front of him with pity, as if he saw himself hundreds of millions of years ago.
"compensate?"
"If someone around you dies, you can try to resurrect them as the ancestors. But don't try to resurrect Qing and Chi. They have no way back and will not accept it. You have to learn how to use the authority of the ancient gods. If you understand the soul a little deeper, you can do it.”
"I see, why should you compensate me?"
"You should have seen your end."
Gu Jianlin's eyes trembled slightly. The lonely ending in that dream made even him feel fear and despair. He raised his hand to touch his heart, which seemed empty: "Is it inevitable?"
The man shook his head: "This is the greatest sorrow of the ancient gods. From the moment you really open your eyes, you can see the final ending, just like the established starting point and end point. You start from the starting point, no matter how far you go around. , no matter how much ups and downs we have experienced, the end point will not change at all."
"I give you this power, and I put this curse on you."
He paused: "You will be as strong as me, and you will be as lonely as me."
Gu Jianlin took the yellowed ancient book and said softly: "Am I going to die?"
The man smiled silently: "That was an eternal sleep of loneliness...will you regret it?"
Gu Jianlin thought for a while and shook his head.
"It doesn't matter, as long as we can protect them."

Boom.
The door of this ancient palace slammed shut, and darkness spread quietly. Candlelights lit up in all corners, illuminating the noble ancient golden coffin. The girl in the coffin was still sleeping.
"The kid is gone."
The man bent down, stroked the girl's golden mask, and said softly: "He is also going to meet his destiny, just like me back then. After so many years, I thought I had changed beyond recognition, but just now At that moment, I felt a little unbearable... Heh, speaking of it, it's not like I have no contact with him."
He said to himself: "Well, it's like he has that kind of connection with you."
Of course Lian couldn't answer him. She had already been left behind by the world at the end of time.
It was just forced to stay by the power of Qilin.
"Back then, Qing and Chi conspired this plan with me to take revenge on the world for you. I never came here to tell you. If you knew, you would probably blame me, right?"
The man whispered: "Who would have thought that in the end, I would suffer so much for that child. So much so that I couldn't bear it, let alone them. The reason why Qing fought so hard was because he wanted to atone for his sins, right?"
In the silence, Lian was still sleeping, with faint tears of blood falling on her golden mask.
Those are men's tears.
It is also the release of hundreds of millions of years of loneliness and hatred.
"Now I have to pay the price for my actions and leave this world forever."
The man took one last look at the girl and gently kissed the golden mask's forehead.
The power left by the former Black Supreme finally disappeared, and the last trace of his soul dimmed like an extinguished candle. The feeling of death swallowed him like a tide, but he did not show any fear, just calm. Accepting this punishment is like returning to the Kirin home star hundreds of millions of years ago.
He was also so calm when he thought he was going to die.
He never feared death.
Just afraid of separation.
However, in the end, he and she separated.
The Supreme Master who controls life and death cannot break the boundary between life and death.
They are destined to experience pain and despair, and even to be separated forever.
Looking back now, the reason why Lian wanted to save Him at all costs was because she placed all the good things she had on Him. Their blood was blended and their souls were one.
She wanted him to enjoy the freedom and beauty of this universe on her behalf.
Enjoy the beauty of being alive.
Unfortunately, he was so blinded by anger and hatred that he saw nothing.
The man murmured softly and allowed himself to be swallowed up by the darkness. Millions of years of memories flashed back in his mind, eventually collapsing into majestic dust. He was released from the cage of despair and hatred, and exhaustion surged like a tide. When I came up, I felt as if I had returned to the human era, weak but real.
This is what death feels like.
The price that must be paid for abandoning the Supreme Person.
This was also the feeling that Lian had experienced back then.
very nice.
It's like he's still with her.
I just don’t know if it’s an illusion.
At the last moment when his consciousness sank, he felt someone pushing him from behind. The roar of the unicorn sounded in the silence, piercing the boundary between life and death and echoing in the depths of the universe.
The man opened his eyes, and light pierced the darkness.
The sound of the tide rang in my ears again, and the sea surface was sparkling under the sun, warm and distant.
On the sea, someone seemed to be waving to him, and her smile was like the tide.
"lotus……"
The man's call was drowned in the tide.
The ancient palace, burning with candles, finally fell into deathly silence.
Inside the gilded ancient coffin lay a man and a woman wearing gold masks.
They slept side by side, holding hands tightly.
Until...the end of time.

Late at night, it started to rain.
The lonely peak was drenched by rain, and the empty cemetery was completely silent, with only the echo of rain.
Tianji stood bewildered in the rain, his clumsy knife stuck diagonally in the soil. A moment ago, he was running in the dark tomb, but when he turned a corner, he heard the sound of the world collapsing, and the dimensions were shattered in front of him.
"President Taiqing's consciousness collapsed."
Ye Dao held Tang Hengdao in his arms and said in a deep voice: "Qilin completely destroyed him."
Tianshu's lips were pale and his whole body was soaked by the rain. He murmured: "How can He be so strong?"
Now that President Taiqing's consciousness has died, the existence of the taboo zone has also collapsed.
They looked at each other, not even knowing what they were going to do.
Boom.
Lightning flashed across the sky, and a huge crack seemed to be torn into the night.
Someone walked out of the crack. He looked like a demon, and his golden eyes were as bright as the sun.
Tianji was horrified, but the realm of heaven and man that was about to be used suddenly collapsed and collapsed. The simple knife that he was holding broke in an instant. Even his tiger's mouth was cut, and the realm of air that protected his body was broken on the spot. !
He dodged instinctively, and a sharp knife mark was torn on his chest, and blood spilled out.
clang!
At the critical moment, Ye Dao drew his sword to block the fleeting light of the sword, but the hard blade broke into pieces, and the fragments of the broken blade flew out, scratching his old face.
So fast!
Only Tianshu's eagle eyes caught the ghostly black figure. When he pulled out the gun from his waist with both hands, the muzzle of the gun had been neatly cut off, and even the sniper rifle behind him shattered with a sound. .
It's as if his rectangular field doesn't exist at all!
In such a short round, the three strongest saints of the Tribunal were at a disadvantage together!
Tianji finally punched out, but what was shattered was the afterimage left in the void.
At this moment, Ye Dao dodged behind him, and the broken knife drew a cold arc in the air, finally blocking the knife falling from the sky. The sound of the blades clashing was like thunder, and the void was turbulent!
"Get out of the way!"
Tianshu evokes the air flow with his hands, condenses it into an invisible giant bow, and picks up the bow and arrows!
boom!
Virtual dog cannon!
The boy who walked out of the rift in the void raised his eyes and stretched out his right hand to catch the heavy cannon!
The peak shook violently, and the tombstones dripping with rain trembled.
Only then did the saints realize that what they were fighting with just now was just an ethereal and beautiful shadow. The only thing that was real was the dark red Tang sword named Jiu Yin. The blood flowing on the sword was swaying like ink.
Gu Jianlin tightened his right hand and crushed the cannonball in his palm.
Rather than crushing it, it would be better to say that it was swallowed up with majestic dark energy.
"too weak."
Gu Jianlin was wearing a jet-black jet mask, and his golden eyes seemed to reflect the radiance of the sun, which could also reflect the sad death of the three saints in front of him: "It was only after I was promoted to the Holy Domain that I realized that you are so weak. "
There is no doubt that this is a huge insult.
However, the saints were unable to refute at all. It is true that they had withstood the pressure of the first round and were not destroyed on the spot, but if they continued to fight, death would be the only outcome.
What's more, just now, the opponent was just fighting them with a clone of the Kirin Forbidden Curse.
What makes people even more confused is that it is clearly the Qilin Forbidden Curse, so why is it the ability to kill ghosts?
After Gu Jianlin killed Gui Che, he was still in a very weak state. After a night, he returned to his peak posture again. The two supreme laws of Zhuzhao and Youying appeared in his body.
And, of course, the power of evolution!
Tianji was clearly aware that his body was decaying and his genetic chain was collapsing and breaking.
He endured the severe pain, but blood mist seeped out of his pores, his bones were shattered inch by inch, and the organs in his body were aging and shrinking. It was like reverse evolution, and his soul was struggling and screaming.
Including Ye Dao and Tian Shu also felt the same pain, and could hardly suppress their desperate screams.
"Can't you bear it anymore?"
Gu Jianlin raised his hand, and a deep black hole emerged in his palm. Now he seemed to be swallowing the world with every breath. That kind of stern power made people so intoxicated.
Even if Qilin's Wedge has been sent away by him, he can still exert the power of devouring it.
The rhythm of the world echoed in his ears.
A sound that could swallow up everything if he wanted to.
Boom!
In the dark sky, the surging clouds and mist seemed to condense into the shapes of unicorns and candle dragons, overlooking the earth.
The majestic pressure almost crushed the entire mountain.
thump.
Finally, the saints could no longer withstand the despairing pain and pressure, and fell to their knees with a bang.
"Did Bai Jin ask you to wait for me here? I have to say that you are very brave for daring to come to see me."
Gu Jianlin turned his left hand over, and three golden pieces of the ancient god's blood suddenly appeared in his palm.
"Now, make a choice."
The saints raised their heads with difficulty, but the young man in front of them seemed to be as high as a god, and the pressure came from the vast ancient times.
This is...Venerable Qilin.
