Lai Changqing and Liu Wusheng were discussing this fight and who would win, when suddenly the beacon of the abandoned nest collapsed instantly with a loud noise, kicking up thousands of feet of dust.
Then a cold light flashed, and two black figures fell down from the lighthouse almost at the same time. They were none other than Gui Shou and Wu Ya, who had been fighting fiercely just now.
When they landed, dust flew everywhere, and their silhouettes were particularly distinct in the night.
Guishou's chest was cut by a deep sword mark, revealing a faint green light. Between Wu Ya's forehead, a red mark burned like a flame. His eyes were full of anger and disappointment.
"You are still defeated in my hands."
Wu Ya's voice was as cold as iron, and he gave the ghost head a sneer.
The ghost leader was lying on the ground, he raised his head, there was no fear in his eyes, only determination, he spat out a mouthful of black blood, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and said unwillingly: "Yes, I lost, but I am dead, Yi Nest It will fall into a situation of no return.”
Wu Ya frowned. He didn't understand Gui Shou's determination. In his opinion, losing is losing without any excuse.
However, the ghost leader's eyes revealed a determination that transcended life and death.
Guishou struggled to stand up. His body was shaky, but he still straightened his back and said: "I lost, but I have no regrets. I am just a code name. If I die, there will be no one to replace me, and so will you." Just the same, someone will eventually replace you."
Wu Ya was silent. He looked at Guishou, the coldness in his eyes slowly faded away. He slowly put down the sword in his hand, looking at Guishou's shaky back, a complex emotion surged in his heart.
But Wu Ya finally won the battle. He knew that he had become the new master of the abandoned nest.
Wu Ya stood in the position of the owner of the abandoned nest, and he saw many new possibilities.
He is no longer just an ordinary existence, but has everything in front of him. In front of him is a brand new existence, full of mystery and unknown.
Wu Ya closed his eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the pressure and expectations brought by this new identity. His heart was filled with complex emotions, including excitement and honor, but also fear and responsibility.
Wu Ya knew that from now on, he no longer had to live only for himself, but to exist for the nest and the creatures in it.
He must protect them, guide them, even lead them. He must be a decision-maker, a leader, a wise man, and a protector.
In Wu Ya's heart, he saw the future of Yichao.
He saw a powerful, peaceful, and prosperous nest that had become a safe haven for all creatures. He saw himself standing at the top of the nest, leading all creatures to face the challenges of the future together.
Wu Ya took a deep breath. He knew that this was his mission, his responsibility, and his honor. He would become the guardian of the nest and the hope of all living things.
He opened his hands and felt the power of the Lost Nest flowing through his body. He knew that he had become the new master of the Lost Nest, and he would lead the Lost Nest and the creatures in it to a brand new future.
However, he did not know that at this time, outside the nest, he had fallen into a dark chaos.
At this moment, the lighthouse continued to collapse, and the nest began to tremble. The seal of the gate of the nest was completely ineffective. Lai Changqing and Liu Wusheng realized that something was wrong. When Wu Ya did not find them, they took advantage of the chaos and walked away. Best policy.
Because the death of the master of the abandoned nest means that the order of the abandoned nest will no longer exist, and those resentful spirits that were originally controlled by the rules of the abandoned nest began to escape and run rampant.
Lai Changqing and Liu Wusheng looked at each other, and each saw the worry in the other's eyes. They both knew that what might happen next was beyond their expectations.
"We have to find a way to stop them!"
Lai Changqing said in a deep voice.
"But, what can be done now?"
Liu Wusheng frowned, looking anxiously at the restless resentful spirits around him.
Lai Changqing frowned and thought. Suddenly, he thought of something, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Perhaps, Yu Huo's soul can re-seal the door of the Lost Nest."
"you mean……"
Liu Wusheng's eyes lit up, then dimmed, and he said, "But Yu Huo's soul is now with Ling Po, and Ling Po, that damn old woman, has no idea where she died."
"Then let's run away quickly."
Lai Changqing took a deep breath, knowing that this might be their last hope.
They walked quickly along the path of the abandoned nest that was about to collapse. Lai Changqing was anxious, but Liu Wusheng seemed a little indifferent. His eyes were empty, as if he had seen their end.
Suddenly, a powerful wave of energy came from behind. Lai Changqing immediately stopped and looked back.
A bright light was seen rising into the sky from the direction of the Lost Nest Gate, illuminating the entire sky. When Liu Wusheng saw this scene, a trace of despair flashed in his eyes.
"It's Ling Po!"
Lai Changqing shouted, an ominous premonition emerged in his heart. He turned around and continued running, but Liu Wusheng stopped and stared at the bright light.
"Her soul is disappearing, she is dead, she is for the embers..."
Liu Wusheng whispered, his voice full of sadness. When Lai Changqing heard this, his heart sank. If Lingpo was dead, then their last hope was shattered.
"You mean, Ling Po sacrificed her life and soul in order for Yu Huo's soul and body to become one again?"
Lai Changqing seemed a little unbelievable, but he agreed with Liu Wusheng's statement.
"That's right."
Liu Wusheng nodded affirmatively, and Lai Changqing said in amazement: "She is actually willing to give up her life and soul for a stranger. This is really an incredible thing."
"Sometimes, for certain things, people always need to make some sacrifices."
Liu Wusheng looked at the direction in which Lingpo's soul disappeared, and sighed deeply.
"So now, what should we do?"
Lai Changqing asked.
Liu Wusheng pondered for a moment, and then said: "First, we need to find Yu Huo's body. Only by reuniting his soul with his body can he be reborn."
"But hasn't his body fallen into the hands of the Five Immortal Guards?"
Lai Changqing raised doubts.
"Ling Po's sacrifice was probably for Yu Huo's body. Come with me."
Liu Wusheng said, then turned around and walked deep into a cave behind the Lost Nest Lighthouse.
Lai Changqing took a deep breath and followed him closely. They arrived at the deepest part of the cave, where there was a small altar.
Liu Wusheng put his hand on the altar, took a deep breath, and then opened a door.
Behind this door is a space full of mysterious atmosphere, as if it is a mysterious passage connecting different worlds. Liu Wusheng motioned to Lai Changqing to follow him into this space. Although Lai Changqing was hesitant, he followed closely.
The internal environment of the space is intricate and maze-like.
They passed through the doors, as if traveling through time and space. They saw the scenes in the past and heard the sounds in the distance. Lai Changqing felt a strong sense of déjà vu, as if he had been here before, but when he tried to recall, he couldn't remember anything.
They finally came to a huge door with mysterious symbols and patterns carved on it. Liu Wusheng took a deep breath and then pushed the door open.
Behind the door is a huge hall. In the center of the hall is a high altar. On the altar is a stone coffin. The cold mist covered Yu Huo's face, but because of the ice coffin, Yu Huo's body was not subject to any corrosion and oxidation.
The sarcophagus was engraved with the same symbols and patterns. Liu Wusheng walked towards the sarcophagus, bowed deeply, then turned to Lai Changqing and said, "This is Yu Huo's body, and it is also our only chance."
Lai Changqing looked at the remaining fire in the sarcophagus, his heart filled with awe. He looked at Liu Wusheng and asked, "What do we need to do next?"
Liu Wusheng looked at him, determination and courage shining in his eyes, and said, "We need to find a way to wake him up, but there is only one person who can wake him up."
"who?"
"Tang Ruoxi."
The reason Liu Wusheng knew this was because he was a disciple of the Corpse Exorcist Faction. The Corpse Exorcist Faction and the Corpse Sewing Faction were originally from the same family.
But now, because of some old grievances, they have become two factions with equal power.
But these were not important to Liu Wusheng. He only knew that the only way now was almost impossible to achieve.
"Who is Tang Ruoxi?"
Lai Changqing asked.
"Tang Ruoxi is Yu Huo's woman. If she had not died, she would have been in Jianghai."
Liu Wusheng said lightly.
"But how can we find her now?"
Lai Changqing asked somewhat worriedly.
"This is a bit difficult..."
Liu Wusheng sighed and began to make calculations in his mind.
Lai Changqing on the side didn't say much when he saw this, he just stood aside and waited silently.
After a long while, Liu Wusheng spoke again: "If we want to find Tang Ruoxi, we must first find a place - Jianghai Ghost Market."
"Ghost market?"
"Yes, the ghost market is a rather special place in Jianghai. It opens every yin year, yin month, yin day, and only appears at night, and the place it opens is different every time. According to legend, there is a yin city deep in the ghost city. There you can find boys and girls born in the yin year, yin month, yin day, yin time, to wake up those sleeping zombies.”
"Then let's go quickly!"
Lai Changqing said eagerly.
"Don't be too anxious."
Liu Wusheng glanced at Lai Changqing and said coldly: "Is it possible to go to the ghost market if you want to? Ordinary people are still far away from entering the ghost market!"
Lai Changqing was a little embarrassed by Liu Wusheng's words, so he had to stand aside and say nothing.
"but……"
Liu Wusheng changed the topic and continued: "There is another way to enter the ghost market."
"any solution?"
Lai Changqing's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"I just don't know if you are willing..."
Liu Wusheng glanced at Lai Changqing meaningfully and said lightly.
"Yes! Of course I do!"
Lai Changqing said quickly: "As long as we can awaken the remaining fire, do you think we have any other options?"
"That's true!"
Liu Wusheng nodded and said, "I want to lend you your body..."
