"Master... no... Master..."
Jin Ying and Xiang Yao hit their foreheads heavily on the ground and cried bitterly.
The body of Lord Jingwu gradually dissipated, and the scene of meeting Lord Jingwu seemed to flash across Zhao Ning's eyes. He was the senior who stood side by side with the other sages in Youdu to protect Zhao Ning. He was the one who met and smiled by chance in Xiyuan Town. How could the kind and naughty old man who gave the advice...how could he die so quietly?
The lines on the top of the rock became more and more obvious, and eventually formed a strange star pattern. The light of the stars shone in the center of the cave, and a shadow gradually took shape.
"Hello everyone." Shadow greeted with a smile.
"Master, Master, is it you?" Jin Ying and Xiang Yao seemed to see a glimmer of hope when they saw the shadow, and crawled to the light in embarrassment, but they still missed it.
In fact, they knew better than anyone else in their hearts that Venerable Jingwu had passed away. At this moment, what they saw was just a remnant of his spiritual consciousness from his lifetime.
As if Venerable Jingwu could see them, he raised his hand and brushed it over their heads to comfort his disciples. Then he turned and bowed slightly to Venerable Hongde who was directly in front of him.
"I think I have not made it through the Great Evolution. The period of time is approaching, but I am absent. I am really ashamed of all my fellow Taoists."
Everyone said nothing and listened quietly to Venerable Jingwu's last words.
"This period of time is a great catastrophe. You all know it by heart. We have been searching for hundreds of years to find a way to solve it, but we can only find a way out. I was unwilling to give up, so I calculated the forty days of the Great Era. Ninth, I finally got a clue from the retrograde secret. I just regret that I have no way to hand this clue into the hands of fellow Taoists."
He raised his head and glanced at the strange lines of stars on the top of the rock. This was probably the key to his efforts to counterattack.
He lowered his gaze and glanced across everyone until it landed on Zhao Ning.
"If it comes to the last moment, the sky will be dark and the earth will be destroyed. I beg you to make a desperate effort to save Kyushu's life."
He bowed deeply.
Zhao Ning felt like a bell was ringing in his heart, but at this moment, he could only silently respond to the remnants of Master Jingwu.
At the end, he smiled slightly, as if relieved and relieved.
"I have lived for tens of thousands of years and experienced several periods of time and ruin. It is enough to survive here. The rest of the journey will be left to you."
The last remnants of Jing Wu Zun's consciousness dissipated.
"Jingwu..." Venerable Haochu murmured.
The other venerables seemed to feel the same for a moment. At this stage, they were restricted in an environment like Kyushu. Even if they did not wait for the first calamity of the soul, they would still waste endless years.
Yanran seemed to be affected by such an atmosphere. She felt sad and moved closer to Zhao Ning. She hugged Zhao Ning's arm and shouted "Zhao Ning" in a dull voice.
Zhao Ning lowered her eyes and suppressed the turmoil in her heart.
Venerable Hongde shook his head, sighed, and turned his back to Venerable Jingwu's floating soul light. He raised his hand, only to see that the flashing spiritual light in the cave seemed to have received some response, and it soon twisted. Leaving the rock wall and heading towards Venerable Hongde, gradually wrapped in spiritual light, those lines formed a substantial picture, like the pattern of stars or the patterns of formations.
"Master, eternity!"
Jin Ying and Xiang Yao choked up at the same time.
For them, as the Master of Yuanshen, the Master has endless longevity and powerful strength. Even if they die, the Master will not die easily. Such a change comes too fast, so they cannot accept it. fact.
Venerable Hongde sighed, "Where is Xun Song?"
Jin Ying wiped away her tears and said, "Elder brother went out a while ago and has not returned yet."
Venerable Hongde only said, "Go and call your senior brother back, and let him take charge of Jingwu's posthumous affairs for you."
"Yes." Jin Ying gave Venerable Hongde a heavy button and agreed to Venerable Hongde's words.
Venerable Hongde led all the Venerables to leave. Before Zhao Ning and others went out, they could only give the Venerable one last salute and then left.
Returning to the Heavenly Palace, the atmosphere in the Heavenly Palace became extremely gloomy.
Venerable Liang Ye still can't figure it out, "His Dayan Numbers come from the Heavenly Secret Palace, and he is best at predicting major events. Even if he peeks into the Heavenly Secrets, he will not be punished by heaven. How could he die suddenly?" ”
Leng Shuanglong also couldn't understand, "Looking at Master Jingwu's state, he seems to have known for a long time that this is a bad thing."
Zhao Ning raised her eyes and looked at Venerable Hongde. Venerable Hongde was looking down at the scroll obtained from Venerable Jingwu's cave.
"Venerable Hongde, you can see the secret in the scroll."
Venerable Hongde frowned, "I feel a power that does not belong to Kyushu."
At such a moment, everyone was shocked. No wonder Venerable Hongde didn't say anything in front of Jin Ying and Xiang Yao. Could it be that Venerable Jingwu didn't die because of the number of Dayan, but died in In the hands of Jiuzhou?
Ting Lan also took a look at the scroll of Dayan Numbers. He hesitated a few times, but then took a step forward and said, "Venerable Hongde, can you give the scroll to my daughter for a look?"
When it comes to matters related to Jiuzhou, everyone in Tiangong is not very familiar with it. Since they heard Lan say this, they have doubts in their hearts.
Venerable Hongde did not hesitate. He raised his hand slightly, and the scroll in his hand floated into Tinglan's hand.
Ting Lan observed carefully and Zhao Ning got closer and could sense the vast power within it, but this power was very weird and unpredictable.
Tinglan seemed to have discovered the key, and suddenly knelt down and said to Venerable Hongde. "Your honorable sirs, this is Suizhou's moon, moon and star wheel chart."
"Suizhou?" Yanran was stimulated by these two words. She walked up to Tinglan and glared at Tinglan, "Does this have something to do with your family?"
Ting Lan remained silent at this moment. She really didn't know how to explain it.
However, the venerable ones present were not easy to convict Tinglan, so he asked Tinglan what was strange about the moon and star wheel diagram.
Ting Lan explained, "The Moon and Star Wheel Diagram is the law of the movement of the world. It is a pattern recorded by the Heavenly Lord. It was later copied by the ancestors of my family. It is a method that can reverse the situation of Heavenly Dao."
The last few keywords made Venerable Hongde straighten up, and Han Yu even stood up, "You mean, the current chaos in Shixu has something to do with this picture? It's people from Jiuzhou, Will the period of time be brought forward?"
Han Yu maintained his last sense of reason and did not directly regard Ting Lan's family as the culprit.
But Ting Lan was particularly suspicious in her heart, and she couldn't help but get close to the ground.
At this moment, the entire hall fell into deathly silence.
For a while, Yan Ran's horrified voice was heard. She looked at Ting Lan and her voice trembled, "I told you that you are not a good person. Jiuzhou just wants to completely destroy Jiuzhou!"
Yanran rushed towards Tinglan, not using magic power, but using the most instinctive fighting method. She held Tinglan's neck with her palms and shook her, trying to make Tinglan feel pain like this, but Tinglan did not Resist.
Until the end, Zhao Ning held Yanran down and pulled her away, "Now is not the time to question."
The venerables present here naturally understood these truths. Venerable Biyue sighed and waved his sleeves to bring his daughter to him.
Ting Lan covered her neck, not stopping Yan Ran's attack just now. She couldn't help coughing and wheezing at this moment.
Zhao Ning stood in the center of the hall and asked the venerables.
"Everyone, there is something unclear about Zhao Ning. Why...Jiuzhou treats Jiuzhou like this."
Zhao Ning took a step forward, "Based on my understanding, Jiuzhou and Jiuzhou were once part of Yu Yu's Nine Heavens. Even if there was a catastrophe, the sky collapsed, and the demons invaded, and the Jiuzhou Demon Sealing Formation had to be set up as a last resort, it would not As for cleaning the Nine Provinces over and over again, or stealing the luck of the Nine Provinces round by round. The Heavenly Way of the Nine Provinces has been controlled by the Nine Provinces, and there are no more than nine Yuanshen Venerables. Such a remaining continent is still facing a great purge at any time. Why? Jiuzhou is still unwilling to let go of Jiuzhou.”
This kind of questioning was calm, but it sounded like a hoarse voice to everyone's ears.
Han Yu was just a newly promoted Yuanshen Venerable, and he didn't know much about all this. He also had such doubts in his heart. Following Zhao Ning's questioning, his eyes also fixed on the several Venerables.
Several venerables were silent, and they did not know the exact answer.
But all eyes are focused on Venerable Hongde, who is the oldest Yuanshen Venerable in the entire Kyushu.
Venerable Hongde sighed, "I actually don't know, but I do know that before modern times, Jiuzhou's attitude towards Kyushu was always laissez-faire. I don't know why in modern times, it has frequently tried to interfere with Kyushu. "
Venerable Hongde also had a lot of confusion in his heart. Until finally his eyes fell on Tinglan, his voice was still kind, "Child, do you know?"
Zhao Ning turned to look at Ting Lan. Ting Lan raised her head. She was not scared or guilty. She seemed to feel the same mood as everyone else.
She also shook her head.
"Before I was thrown into the Immortal Realm, I only lived for more than ten years. Living in the family house, I couldn't hear so many secrets."
Ting Lan paused for a moment, then seemed to think of something, and then speculated, "But, I heard that the time ruins spread. Could it be that in recent times, the spread of time ruins has spread to Jiuzhou, causing them to think We need to use Kyushu to control the speed of the spread of time ruins."
"Absurd!" But as soon as Lan finished speaking, Han Yu jumped up, "Even so, Jiuzhou has become vulnerable to Yu Yu Jiuzhongtian, do they still want to squeeze out the last bit of value from Jiuzhou? ?”
Such words seemed to be a thorn in everyone's heart.
Zhao Ning pursed her lips. She squatted next to Ting Lan. Ting Lan hesitated a little, turned to look at Zhao Ning, and said frankly to Zhao Ning, "This is just my guess. Maybe I'm overthinking."
Zhao Ning asked, "Then do you know what the nine continents mean to Yu Yu in ancient times?"
"I know this. Jiuzhou is Central Continent. Before Yu Yu's Nine Heavens fell into catastrophe, it was the most prosperous place on the entire continent. I heard from ancient books that Central Continent used to have an endless stream of cultivators. Gods, saints, and gods were all over the place. It was guarded by the sect and was the core of the entire Yuyu Nine Heavens. It may have been precisely because of the power of Zhongzhou at that time that when the catastrophe came, Kyushu became the core place of the catastrophe."
Listening to Lan's words, a memory suddenly came back to her. It was a statement she had glanced at from an ancient family book.
"There is a saying that Jiuzhou is the Taoist temple of Yu Yu Daozu, the birthplace of Yu Yu's Jiuzhongtian Dao, and the source of the luck of the world."
This sentence made everyone doubtful.
Venerable Yeliang was angry, "If you ask me, the people of Jiuzhou have probably reached the point of being crazy. They don't want to prevent the spread of the time ruins. They just want to steal Jiuzhou's luck to make up for it. His luck on the edge of the Nine Heavens is incomplete."
This statement is not impossible.
But knowing so much now has no effect.
“The Shixu existed back then to make up for the hole in Yu Yu’s Nine Layers of Heaven’s mulch. Now, looking at it, I’m afraid that the Shixu has also become a hidden danger.”
Venerable Hongde somewhat agreed with Ting Lan’s words.
In this way, it seems to be saying that this great purge seems to be doomed.
Everyone's expressions were not good. Looking at everyone's expressions, Yanran seemed to be reminded of everything she had experienced that year.
She trembled and pulled the arm of Venerable Biyue, "Mother, no, how could there be a big purge? Didn't we already find the passage? We can take advantage of this hundred years to send everyone away as much as possible. Go to Jiuzhou, so that Jiuzhou can still be preserved."
Lord Yanyue didn't say much, he just patted Yanran's hand.
Probably because there is such a way, the people in the Heavenly Palace do not feel the ultimate despair.
Venerable Haochu said, "Yan Ran is right. As long as there are seeds in Kyushu, even if this great purge is inevitable, the descendants of Kyushu in the next round will be able to cooperate with the seeds inside and outside, and finally break this damn imprisonment."
Zhao Ning looked at everyone and fell into confusion for a moment, "Is this great purge really destined?"
Even if they go to Jiuzhou, the great purge comes, the creatures in Kyushu are extinct, and the new creatures grow up again after thousands of years of gestation, and the people in the past are gone, will the new Kyushu still be the original Kyushu?
Zhao Ning was silent. She suddenly felt that going to Jiuzhou was just like how she was arranged by her uncle to leave Kunxu with the others when she knew nothing about the demonic chaos in Kunxu. Is this kind of escape really what they want?
Zhao Ning was unusually naive this time. She asked, "Is there no way to stop the Great Purge?"
Everyone was silent, and she looked at Ting Lan again, who also shook her head.
Zhao Ning asked again, "What about the Moon and Star Wheel Diagram? Since it can speed up the period of time, can't it delay the period of time?"
Tinglan seemed to be stunned by Zhao Ning's words and just looked at Zhao Ning blankly. But at this time, Venerable Yeliang said, "What's the use of delaying the time of the ruins? What should come after all It will come."
"As long as we don't go through the Great Purge, what our generation can accomplish, why should the descendants of Kyushu in the next reincarnation bear such a heavy responsibility." Zhao Ning said word by word.
The Heavenly Palace fell into silence again. Everyone had this idea, but could they really do it?
But I heard Lan say, "I have never seen the Pluto Moon Star Wheel Chart with my own eyes, but if the star wheel is reversed, maybe the period of Time Ruins will be postponed, but it will definitely not be postponed to the next Period of Time Ruins."
