But the three tribulations of the Yuan Shen were imminent, and she couldn't just back down. Later, she entered an ancient hall. The hall was very weird. It didn't look like an ordinary brick building, but more like the body of a giant tree with countless branches inside. entangled.
She met an ancient god named Dipo in the main hall.
Chi Mi had some impression that Di Po was a celestial being who controlled the souls of the dead in ancient times.
Dipo told Chi Mi that these undead souls were all born in the ancient Shangqing Heaven. At that time, the Shangqing Heaven was broken and many creatures fell into the sea. Later, they drowned in the sea because they could not integrate into the Nine Heavens, which caused endless resentment. .
As an ancient celestial being in charge of the laws of the undead, she could not save all these undead souls, so she could only guard them with her body.
However, it has been too long, more than four million years, and Di Po's power has gradually dissipated, and she can no longer suppress these undead.
The Earth Po wants her to help wash away the resentment of these undead.
When it came to comforting the people of Jiuzhou, Chi Mi was obliged to ask her what she should do.
Dipo told Chi Mi that there is a river in this space called the Spring of Rebirth. As long as you drink the water of the Spring of Rebirth, you can give birth to a fetus, and the spring water will gather the resentment in the entire space into it. After reincarnation and the innate transformation of the mother's body, Lin'er was born through the baptism of Qi, and it would completely suppress those grievances.
"I had no doubts at the time." Chi Mi said, "Di Po is in charge of the souls of the dead, and I confirmed that Dao Dao cannot be faked. Moreover, she also told me that as long as I give birth to Lin'er, my soul will be able to survive the three tribulations automatically. "
Pass automatically? What kind of disaster should be used instead?
In other words, this earth woman has the power to transcend the heavenly tribulation.
Chi Mi said, "I was hesitant at first, but with the cries of the undead and the desire for survival, as well as the approaching catastrophe of heavenly fire burning my heart, I had no choice but to hesitate any longer. So, I drank the water from the spring of rebirth. , after drinking the spring water, my belly suddenly expanded, and the child’s cry filled my ears.”
Like saying again, "No, don't live..."
"I don't know what it is crying about, and I have no other way, because the Heavenly Fire Burning Heart Tribulation fell instantly. My consciousness then fell into darkness." Chi Mi said about that year, "When I woke up When I came, the child had already been stripped from my belly, and I had already survived the catastrophe and was even far away from that weird place."
"Later, I looked for that place again, but I couldn't even find the entrance."
Chi Mi looked at Zhao Ning. Her eyes were full of confusion. She didn't know whether what she did at that time was right or wrong. She searched nearby for a long time until she finally determined that it was impossible to find the entrance and return to the sect. When he came to the door, he found that a young man had appeared during the sect's recruitment order.
The young man was very qualified and had inherited her fire bones. He was handsome and lively. Chi Mi was a little relieved at first, but she did not recognize him. She secretly supported the young man's growth until he became the Nascent Soul. In order to be able to transform into a god, she was sent to the Time Ruins. She originally wanted to protect him all the way, but the boy seemed to have deliberately avoided all protection and completely disappeared in the Time Ruins node.
After disappearing like this, tens of thousands of years later, he would be involved again, and he would see Yanran during the ceremony of conferring gods.
Chi Mi said, "Yanran said that her father was treacherous and betrayed his wife and children. I'm afraid it's not just that."
Zhao Ning turned to look at the mountains and rivers, and said, "Yes, he made a big mistake, even if he was killed countless times, it would not be an exaggeration."
Chi Mi closed his eyes, "I knew it. The resentment on the Fountain of Rebirth can't just dissipate."
She asked again, "Then Yanran...how is she? Has she inherited the child's resentment..."
"No." Zhao Ning said, "She is well taken care of, responsible and principled."
Zhao Ning suddenly thought of the Dayan illusion that Yanran had experienced. Whether it was an illusion or not, it was probably to wash away her resentment that she was actually born in Kyushu three thousand years later.
"That's good...that's good..." She murmured, "Maybe I shouldn't have let him go in the first place."
Zhao Ning turned to look at her, "Do you know where he went?"
Chi Mi said, "I don't know, but before he went to Shixu, he had been exploring the secrets of the ancient continent, which was the forbidden continent of Zhongzhou. Later, after he came out of Kuozhou, he stopped searching until he went to Shixu. He deliberately avoided all gazes and headed deep into the ruins of time very purposefully."
Chi Mi looked at Zhao Ning and said, "I suspect that the place he went to is the Central Continent, Kyushu."
Her expression became strange and determined. She took a step forward and asked Zhao Ning, "Is Yanran coming from Kyushu?"
Zhao Ning knew Chi Mi's position. She was not someone who rejected the unification of Jiuzhou. It might be a benefit if Chi Mi could stand firmly with them.
Zhao Ning did not deny it, and even said, "We not only want to return to Kyushu, but we also hope... to break the Kyushu Demon Sealing Formation."
Chi Mi took half a step back, obviously shocked, "You... how dare you, what to do if the demon invades, what to do if there is a hole in the mulch..."
"What if we could solve this?"
Chi Mi was stunned and didn't speak for a while, and finally said, "If this is the case, will Jiuchongtian return to Jiuchongtian four million years ago?"
"No." Zhao Ning replied to Chi Mi, "The river of time flows forward. Even if we can go back to the past, the entire Jiuzhongtian cannot go back to the past."
Chi Mi stood there quietly for a long time, staring blankly at the mountains. After a long time, she said, "I have actually noticed for a long time that there are two distinct forces in Jiuzhou. The current balance is maintained only because Jiuzhou is silent. "
"From the first time the barrier of the Nine Provinces Demon Sealing Formation was impacted, the actions of these two forces began to accelerate."
Zhao Ning understood that Kyushu was the victim of the four million-year balance, and both forces wanted to win the final victory.
As the birthplace of Taoism, Kyushu has become synonymous with the old Nine Heavens. The New Nine Heavens have banned it but will not abandon it, just to reshape the new Nine Heavens...
As for the forces that have infiltrated from Shangqingtian, they don't care about the existence of Jiuzhou at all. They can ban it, but it would be better if they can abandon it. In this case, Shangqingtian's Taoism can completely replace Jiuzhongtian.
But does the Supreme Pure Heaven Really still exist?
"Give me Yuantian!!!" The roar once again rang in Zhao Ning's ears, and Zhao Ning's body trembled violently.
Chi Mi was startled, "Are you okay? Are you injured in some way?"
"No." Zhao Ning stretched out her hand to stop her, "I just thought of something."
Chi Mi took back his hand, sighed, looked at Zhao Ning and said, "I'll take you to Kuozhou."
Zhao Ning looked at her steadily.
Chi Mi said, "I don't know exactly how this Kuozhou gave Haoyang clues on how to get to Kyushu. Maybe, you guys coming from Kyushu will know the secret."
As she spoke, she turned into a stream of light and moved forward. Zhao Ning looked at the light. Chi Mi's series of actions may be to solve the difficulties faced by Jiuzhou, or to make up for the disaster caused by the child born in her womb. .
Zhao Ning didn't think any more and followed Chi Mi's flowing light away.
Among the towering ridges, located at the highest peak of the entire Yuyu Nine Heavens, this is Kuozhou, a place where few people stay.
The original traces are still maintained here. Looking from the sky at the narrow continent spanning the north and south of Jiuchongtian, it looks like a giant dragon.
She said to Zhao Ning, "There are countless legends about Kuozhou, all about the origin of Kuozhou, but I only understood the true origin of Kuozhou when I saw the phantoms of the nine dragons in the clear sky on the Jiutian Shrine. Maybe Kuozhou It’s also the realization of luck.”
Zhao Ning looked at her, "Is there a destiny dragon shadow hidden in this island?"
Chi Mi shook his head, "I don't know if it's a dragon shadow, but there should be a dragon corpse."
As she spoke, the brilliance around her disappeared downwards, and Zhao Ning followed closely, and saw that there were countless passages inside Kuozhou. These passages extended in all directions, but in the end they all led to one place.
And what they finally came to was the heart of Kuozhou, or the heart of the dragon corpse.
The heart has been completely petrified, and its surface has been cracked into countless cracks. The depth of the cracks cannot be explored, as if something is blocking the consciousness.
"This is it." Chi Mi said, "I have been following Haoyang here. Haoyang just touched it lightly, and then he caught something in his hand, and his expression became a little strange. After that, they went to Shi Xu Xu, as for what happened in the end, the ever-changing changes in the Xu Xu are no longer within my control."
"I once tried to sense this heart, but there was no response." Chi Mi said to Zhao Ning, "Would you try?"
Zhao Ning paused for a moment, and his consciousness moved across the entire Kuozhou. This was not the first time he sensed it. The internal structure of Kuozhou was indeed a dragon corpse. The passages were bones, meridians, and blood vessels, and the mountain was the body. Zhao Ning stepped forward. Taking one step, reaching out and feeling, it was a completely petrified mountain, with even the aura of heaven and earth scarce.
Until the perception spread from here to the entire mountain, the entire outline of the dragon corpse appeared in front of his eyes. Zhao Ning's perspective suddenly increased, as if looking down from thousands of miles above. At this moment, the mountain moved, and the rocks and trees attached to it Sliding down, the giant dragon slowly raised its head from the mountain.
It stared at the sky, as if looking at Zhao Ning, and then nodded slightly, a gesture of restrained surrender.
"Kuozhou." Zhao Ning heard her voice floating down in the sky, like her consciousness, but not like her voice.
The giant dragon responded and respectfully said, "The Taoist Master is above."
In an instant, Zhao Ning's consciousness seemed to have been hit by some kind of impact, and his senses were instantly recovered. The hand that touched the dragon's heart was bounced away by something, and he took a few steps back.
"Venerable Zhao Ning?" Chi Mi was surprised. She reached out to help Zhao Ning and asked doubtfully, "Even you have been excluded?"
Zhao Ning stabilized her body and stared at the dragon's heart. It was obviously completely petrified and had no energy. What was the scene and that claim just now?
It was probably because Zhao Ning was used to not showing emotions on his face. Chi Mi didn't notice Zhao Ning's abnormality and only said in despair, "Is it possible that only Haoyang can sense it?"
This made Chi Mi suddenly feel a sense of panic, "Is this place also the work of that Di Po? Just to let Haoyang go to Kyushu and achieve a certain purpose?"
"No matter what his purpose is, it's over." Zhao Ning interrupted Chi Mi's suspicion. She suppressed her doubts about the scene just now, turned to Chi Mi and continued, "You don't have to feel guilty about this. What happened back then , even if you don’t take the initiative to drink the water of the afterlife, you will be forced to drink it.”
Chi Mi was silent. She recalled the coercion of Dipo at that time. It was like the tribulations were piled upon her one after another, making her almost unable to breathe.
It was probably fruitless. Zhao Ning and Chi Mi came out from the heart of Kuozhou and stood at the top of Kuozhou. This is really the place closest to the mulch film. From here, they can see the magnificence of the universe and the brilliance of the stars. One after another from the mulch film The aurora penetrating through the sky floats around you like a veil.
Chi Mi said, "Can I still go to see Yanran? No matter how Haoyang was born, this lineage comes from me."
"It will take some time," Zhao Ning said. "When she comes out of the shadow of her mother's death, maybe she will try to explore the story between her mother and Haoyang, and then find you."
She said to Chi Mi, "I will pass the fire order to Yanran."
Chi Mi didn't speak for a while, until finally he whispered "Thank you" in a low voice.
She looked up at the mulch film, "Now that Jiuzhou is in turmoil, I hope there won't be another catastrophe."
"No more." Zhao Ning murmured, "We will never allow another catastrophe to happen."
The two of them stood in silence from dusk to dawn, and a stream of light fell on Chi Mi's hand. She said to Zhao Ning, "The sect asked me to go back. I think it was because I understood the shock and mutation of the God Conferment Ceremony."
She smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the amazing thing that Venerable Zhao Ning did at that time was no less than that of overcoming three tribulations in one night. Unfortunately, the change happened too quickly, and I haven't even congratulated Venerable Zhao Ning for his conferment on the Yu Yu realm. So... , why not return to the sect like me and let me celebrate for Venerable Zhao Ning."
Zhao Ning smiled lightly and shook her head, "Venerable Chi Mi takes it in kindly, but I still have something to do."
Chi Mi said no more and nodded to say goodbye.
After Chi Mi left, Zhao Ning stared at Kuozhou below. His consciousness fell into the heart of the dragon again, but the feeling could no longer be felt.
At this time, there was a sudden ripple behind her, and a figure appeared behind her.
Zhao Ning suddenly turned around and relaxed when she saw the person coming.
"Uncle Master..." Zhao Ning murmured.
Qin Keyuan was dressed in earthly mysterious uniforms, and his clothes were stained with a mixed aura from outside the territory, and there was still some residual power of the great avenue of time and space.
She took a step closer and whispered, "I seem to know the secret of Jiuchongtian..."
Chapter 416
But Zhao Ning didn't have time to tell Qin Keyuan what she had experienced.
Before that, she asked Yanran to contact Jiuzhou. It was an action to divert Yanran's attention at that time, and it was also a test.
The Mingshi Palace appeared, and Zhao Ning stepped into the void where the Mingshi Palace was located. Qin Keyuan followed closely behind him without asking any questions.
At the entrance of Mingshi Palace, Yanran's excited voice could still be heard. Yanran even introduced the fairy land of Jiuzhou to Leng Shuanglong, as if she was already thinking about what would happen after the Jiuzhou Demon Sealing Formation was lifted.
Leng Shuanglong's voice was rare without being cold, and along with Yanran's excitement, there were even more unfamiliar voices looking forward to it.
This kind of connection does not rely on time and space landmarks, but the astrological connection method that Leng Shuanglong and others found in Kyushu.
Of course, Zhao Ning's temptation is not about Yanran, let alone the heavenly palace, but about the stars.
