In the dark space, the white mask kept approaching. When the distance was close enough that Li Chengqi could easily see the patterns on the mask with the naked eye, it retracted again. Its huge body was hidden in the shadows beyond the starlight, waiting for it to be needed. s answer.
It's so cold here that Li Chengqi's teeth are chattering. Occasionally, you can hear the harsh sound of bones twisting in the huge shadow.
This made him suspect that this place was not the so-called phantom of the universe, but the Nine Nether Hells.
Countless pairs of chaotic eyes stared at Li Xi'an flickering.
"How long can you remain conscious?" Li Xi'an suddenly asked.
"That abyss-like pit is your cemetery. You were blocked by the law of evil and could not move, but you still wanted to climb up with your remaining strength and return to the world. So this cemetery finally became what I saw when I arrived. The huge body barely revealed a head, drained of blood, no strength, and consciousness dissipated." Li Xi'an inserted the Dusk Sword into the void, and the dim fire light lit up, dispelling the cold and darkness, like a bonfire. , the shadow cast by the bonfire separates the boundary between life and death.
The God of the Ancient World on the side quickly showed a grateful look, thinking that the Master could still notice him at this juncture, and it seemed that he still had considerable weight in the Master's heart.
"I am trying to wake you up. After all, for an ancient saint, even if the law is stripped off and falls into the world, death will not swallow it up so easily. From this point of view, it is not that I failed, it is simply that you think that I have no value in negotiating. .”
Dark silence.
After a long time, a white figure suddenly appeared under the light of the faint sword. He followed Li Chengqi's example and sat down cross-legged on one side of the faint sword. He reached out and gently touched the light and heat emitted by the faint sword.
"What should I call you?" he said, "Prince of Xingcai, True Scale Dragon, or...Kunlun Immortal?"
The figure's eyes stayed on Li Xi'an's red clothes, and then said: "After the loss of Kyushu, Tianyang obtained Kunlun, and wanted to recreate the elixir of life given by a great supreme being in the past, so that the creatures who took the elixir could live there. In the Kunlun Immortal Palace. I once went to Tianyang to celebrate his birthday and met one of them, but you are obviously not an individual created by Tianyang in an attempt to pry into the secrets of Kunlun."
"The embroidery on your red clothes is very beautiful, and the hand of the person who painted it is very skillful. If my guess is correct, the pattern on it is three blue birds and sand tang trees. You are one of the residents of Kunlun Immortal Palace in Kyushu. Immortal Priest?" The figure hesitated a bit.
The feeling that Li Xi'an brought to him was too messy, messy and wonderful, and the hairpin that tied his hair was cold to the bone, and it didn't look like the legendary hairpin of immortality.
The only thing he could confirm was that this was the First Dragon, not Prince Xingcai.
"Is it useful for you to find out my identity?" Li Xi'an lowered his eyes slightly and ignored the good saint's temptation, "You are almost dead, you can even say that you are already dead. Even if you know the truth in the end, you can only tell these things Take secrets to your grave.”
"Not really." The Good Sage smiled.
"If you think that an ancient sage is nothing after losing the law, then what was I before I obtained the law? Decay has cut off my vitality, but there is some power that is sealed in the years and cannot be taken away by time."
"Is there a glimmer of hope?" Li Xi'an asked.
The God of the Ancient Realm listened on the sidelines and knew that if the Good Sage said next that he could survive, the Master would have to take action to prevent him from surviving.
The figure shook his head.
"How can I survive after more than ten epochs, but the chess players are out, but the chess pieces are always there, falling one by one, hitting the chessboard, and they have not died with my decay. If I can change hands as soon as possible , these chess pieces may not be used again.”
"So I want to know who you are and how you know about the Ripple of the Era." The Good Saint fiddled with the edge of the dim firelight. Before Li Xi'an could respond, he noticed the lines on the Dusky Sword and revealed it first. A look of surprise.
"Primitive fire inscriptions...you still have a primitive fire method on your body? No...that's not right." The Good Saint recalled the method and spell that Li Xi'an used to wake him up before, the overflowing vitality and the ancient forests all over the mountains and plains. "And Muxing."
He suddenly laughed and shook his head, "Five Elements Killing Technique... Haha... I can still see living creatures carrying Five Elements Killing Technique?"
"Then let me guess more boldly. I can understand the meaning of the era at the stage of the True Realm, and have this understanding that does not belong to the world at all. And after you disappear, the turbulence of time that envelopes the good world will appear, and other living beings cannot see it. Clearing out the things in the mist, I did see a golden treetop. This is very close to the Dharma you showed in the cloud dojo..."
After a moment's pause, it seemed that even the Ancient Sage didn't want to mention this name.
"Zufa."
He looked at Li Xi'an, "If anyone knew that a monster like you appeared in Kyushu, they would be restless."
"For so long, I have known that there are laws of time and laws of space, but the laws of the universe and the laws of space have never appeared in the true sense. Chilong, you are very young, and to reach this realm is nothing compared to your lifespan. The human race for a long time is considered too young. Then I have another guess, you are a primitive creature born in the new nine states." The good sage did not hide anything, he could almost say whatever he thought of, and the cognition and accumulation of the ancient sages were also His intuitive guess was extremely accurate.
"Kyushu has been silent for too long. The original war did not completely destroy Kyushu. All living beings who know the battle of Kyushu know that one day, it is inevitable for such a great Tianyuan place to make a comeback."
"Do you have any companions? Strength always comes with loneliness. In any era, creatures like you have to go alone. But Kyushu needs to rise, and it needs more than just you."
"You're asking too many questions." Li Xi'an said softly, "But I can tell you that your guess is very accurate, and I don't intend to refute it."
The good saint smiled and said, "Any living being will inevitably be curious about that missing place in the sky, and saints are no exception. What's more, my hands have never been stained with the blood of your comrades. Naturally, I can talk to you calmly."
"Then let me ask you a few questions." Li Xi'an said.
"Of course, just ask."
"What exactly is an era measured by? The end of an era is symbolized by the rise of ripples, but why do the ripples appear?"
"You are so sharp when you speak..." The Good Sage sighed, "Frankly speaking, I don't know. This is like a common understanding in the law. The rise of ripples is the end of an era. I have been in this for several eras. I kept searching for its roots and found that I couldn’t find the source at all.”
"This is also the source that all the creatures of the Law are looking for. Every time a ripple appears, a large amount of the life source of the Law will be damaged. Under the erosion again and again, the weak Law may die in two or three epochs, and the powerful one will be nothing more than After ten epochs, it began to gradually decline. As for the so-called invincible Guiyuan under Ji Zhao, they were not immune. I personally witnessed the death of the Chaos Guiyuan. The Chaos Guiyuan lived for ninety epochs. Finally, Died under the ninety-first ripple.
"After his death, the Holy Road emerged. In an era, throughout the universe, all creatures with the ability to inherit the law are competing for the ownership of the origin of chaos."
"Even creatures at your level don't know why the ripples arise?"
"Perhaps those who have survived a hundred years will be able to spy some clues about the origin of the era, but the only person in the world who is related to the ripples of the era is Tianyang. The great rotation of Tianyang, the change of the times and the ripples of the era are synchronized. In other words, Tianyang's Every year you get older is an era."
"So, what is the difference between the so-called law of time and the law of space and other laws of return to the source, and the law of the universe?"
The Good Sage was silent for a moment, "The law is like the rule itself, such as the law of time. Beings who master these laws can mobilize the time rotation of the universe at will and fiddle with the history of time. To a certain extent, Zhoufa also has this Power, it becomes stronger with the strength of the controller. Of course you cannot achieve the level of the law of time now, but if you enter the Tao one day, the law of the universe may not be able to compete with the law of time."
The two were talking, sitting on both sides of the dim firelight, and they were talking as if they were discussing the Tao.
This made Li Chengqi unable to sit down.
The two of them were talking and answering questions, making him look like a primitive man who didn't understand anything.
But Li Chengqi didn't want to leave the range of the faint sword's light. It was really too cold in the darkness, and the cold stung his soul.
By the way, where is this? The Master didn't even ask the good sage, the old man, and moved them to this place for no reason. Couldn't they change to a more comfortable place? Big shots still have to choose a stylish, dimly lit place for their speeches and meetings.
Um?
Li Chengqi suddenly caught a glimpse of a cluster of golden firelight from the corner of his eye, just like the color of the Master's eyes when he revealed himself as a real dragon.
He glanced at Li Xi'an and Shan Sheng. They were still talking about secrets that were inaccessible to the world, and they didn't even notice a faint golden flame rising in the darkness.
As if he was disobedient, Li Chengqi walked toward the flames regardless of the coldness of the dark space.
With the sound of fire burning, he came closer and looked into the flames.
In an instant, fear spread all over Li Chengqi's body!
It's really an eye!
A golden vertical eye burning with murder and rage all the time.
He backed away slowly, wanting to shout out. The Master and the Good Saint were not far away. As long as he made any noise, he would definitely be noticed. But he couldn't make a sound no matter what, and his whole body was frozen under the gaze of this golden vertical pupil!
The roar of gold and iron echoed in the silent space, filling Li Chengqi's eardrums.
The soul is trembling!
The huge creature in the darkness swam slowly, covered in bloody red scales. The face turned around, revealing a face covered with ferocious bone spurs and with sword marks across the entire left face. This thing noticed Li Chengqi’s gaze,
It was only then that Li Chengqi realized how huge the thing in the darkness was. The flames he saw were just the eyes of the thing shining far away in the sky, the snake-shaped shadow was winding, and the sharp claws were tearing the edge of the universe. It seems like it wants to get in from outside the universe.
He had never seen anything so powerful.
Not even the rainbow stars that descended into the world that day could compete with it.
…………
"Li Chengqi!"
Suddenly, a voice woke him up.
His body shook violently and he kept breathing. The fear deep in his soul had not dissipated.
"What's wrong with you?" His red clothes fell down, blocking Li Chengqi's sight. Only then did he come back to his senses and look around.
Darkness is still darkness, there is no golden fire, and nothing is tearing the universe apart. He looked down at himself again and saw that he had been sitting in the same spot from beginning to end, never moving an inch away. It seemed that he just accidentally fell asleep and had a nightmare.
"What a creature you will become in the future..." The good sage's admiration still lingered in Li Chengqi's ears.
The roar that filled his eardrums gradually faded away, and his wildly beating heart began to calm down.
A nightmare?
A sudden nightmare?
Li Chengqi raised his head and looked at the Master's face. This delicate face also had a golden glow, but it was completely different from what he saw in his dream.
Looking directly into Li Xi'an's eyes will have a calming magic power. This is completely different from the feeling when Li Xi'an is facing the enemy. The golden fire softens, dissipating the edge and majesty, and what is left is for Li Chengqi The warmth of melting ice.
He took a deep breath, "I had a dream, and the things in the dream were not very good."
Li Xi'an nodded and looked away. After knowing the reason, he didn't take it to heart. This kind of thing happened often before. Li Chengqi would sometimes dream about scenes from the past, whether it was the humiliation and resentment of being treated as a monster when he was a human, or the collapse and exile in the memory of the ancient world. As long as the heavy past is seen, it is destined not to be beautiful. .
"That's it, farewell." Li Xi'an bowed to the good saint.
Through this discussion, he learned many unknown secrets, and the good sage imparted his knowledge and knowledge as an ancient sage without reservation.
"Wait a minute." The figure raised his hand, and in the darkness, the huge corpse reappeared, and he took off the white mask worn by the corpse.
"The Good Face," he said, "The wearer...can command the legions of law."
"Gift to you."
Li Xi'an was stunned, "This is a great gift."
"As I said, the chess pieces are still on the chessboard and have not decayed with me. If there are no new creatures to replace this mask for me, the white pieces will also disappear soon."
"Can you control the Legion of Law without the law?"
"Bai Zi was not given by the law. He was transformed by the souls of the creatures who followed me on this path. They followed me and were never the law of goodness."
Li Xi'an took a deep look at the figure.
The good sage gave him good noodles.
"There is no other reason to choose you. You can fight, the dragon quality is good, and maybe you can get back the law of good. Although I don't pay attention to the law itself, this world needs the law of good to maintain balance. This world You can't lose it. As for whether you are a creature of Kyushu or not, it has nothing to do with me."
Li Xi'an lowered his head and looked at the white mask handed over by the figure.
After it was taken off, the golden lines disappeared, leaving only an ivory pale color, with an arc-shaped surface, and the overall appearance was in the shape of an inverted drop of water. Other than that, there were no other peculiar features.
He took the mask.
"When given the opportunity, I will bring the law of goodness back to the good world."
