"You...why...are you here." Shi Lei's voice trembled with fear.
A soft voice drifted down, "Shi Lei, when I brought you into Kunxu and watched you become a pillar of the Qingxiao Sect, I didn't do it to see results like today."
Shi Lei clenched and released it, and then clenched it again.
"I, what did I do?" Shi Lei asked, "I just wanted to kill the person who let go of the culprit of the demon invasion!" He thought Zhao Ning's disappointment was because he wanted to kill Zhan Xuexuan.
But Zhao Ning Yukong was tens of feet away, looking down with his hands behind his hands, "Shi Lei, if Zhan Xuexuan is forced to let Lu Jing and others go, which is the greatest evil, then you use the Demon-Subduing Demon Wentian Dao technique to harm the survivors of Fengming Continent, Isn’t it evil?”
Zhan Xuexuan was supported by Elder Yi, and she stared at Shi Lei, "The demon invaded three thousand people, and your skills harmed thirty thousand people. Shi Lei, you didn't see those ordinary cultivators who used their willpower to resist the demons, because of your skills Become a demon container?!"
Until this moment, Zhan Xuexuan could no longer calm down, "Eight thousand years ago, you were also a victim of the demonic chaos in Kunxu, and you managed to survive the infection by the demonic species. Have you forgotten your original pain? !”
Shi Lei, who was less than ten years old at the time, still carried the pure and true nature of a child, experienced the demonic chaos of Kunxu, and grew up to be an elder of Qingxiao Sect. He created his own skills, developed his own magical powers, and even Zhao Ning conquered Penglai Immortal Island. The Nine Heavens Penglai Spiritual Sky Divine Scroll was given to him to ponder. Although Shi Lei went astray in the process, he would not become as ignorant as he is now.
"Zhan Xuexuan!" Shi Lei interrupted her forcefully, "This is Shangqing Tianfengming Continent, not Kyushu."
Zhan Xuexuan was stunned. She seemed to have heard the meaning from Shi Lei's words, "Because it is the clear sky, it doesn't matter whether the people live or die."
At this moment, Shi Lei turned to Zhao Ning, his tone softened, and he still had the same admiration on the surface, he said, "Venerable Zhao Ning, you must know that Yu Yu Jiuchongtian declined for four million years, and Kyushu was banned for four million years. Everything arises from the clear sky, Master Zhao Ning, am I wrong to do this? Shouldn’t they bear the pain that Kyushu has experienced for four million years?"
Zhan Xue was shocked as she turned back, as if she was stopped by Shi Lei's words.
Zhao Ning didn't answer and asked, "Where did you know what happened four million years ago?"
Shi Lei stared at her, "Venerable Zhao Ning, is this important? If you don't answer my words, do you agree with my words? You also think that Shangqingtian should be destroyed, don't you."
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhao Ning, who approached slowly and said, "Shi Lei, why do you have to ask me to approve it over and over again? If you are determined that everything you do is just, it doesn't matter if you do it; or do you know it yourself? This is done to an extreme, not for justice, but for you... yourself..."
She suddenly raised her hand, and instantly there was an invisible force rushing toward Shi Lei. Shi Lei's eyes shrank and he suddenly dodged back, but he was still trapped by the force.
"Who are you?" Zhao Ning asked coldly.
Shi Lei struggled and shouted, "Who do you think I am! Shen Zhaoning, you are just an indecisive coward!!"
As he spoke, the power in his body burst out, and then the mark between his brows burned, and the next moment his back showed blazing fire. When he roared, his voice was mixed with the roar of a tiger. The magic gathered together and broke through the invisible power. Attack directly towards Zhao Ning, Zhao Ning pinches the technique with both hands, freezes the technique, and stops the attack three inches in front of Zhao Ning's body.
However, Shi Lei did not attack Zhao Ning again, as if he was attacking from the east to the west, the figure was already rushing towards the calamity cloud in the sky.
After the remaining force of the attack on Zhao Ning was released, Shi Lei was only three feet away from the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl hovering in the sky.
"Shi Lei, you can't even think about getting the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl!" Zhan Xuexuan shouted, trying to rush out to stop Shi Lei, but was stopped by Zhao Ning. Zhan Xuexuan was extremely puzzled and asked Zhao Ning "Why", just In a few seconds, Shi Lei had already caught the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl.
He seemed to be able to sense the endless power in the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl. His many plans finally came to fruition, and he laughed high in the sky.
"The Hongmeng Dingming Bead is mine." Shi Lei murmured, "As long as the Shangqingtian is destroyed, I will have completed my mission, and I can go to the Tongtian Universe, hahaha."
As he spoke, he suddenly asked for the Hongmeng Dingming Bead, as if he wanted to use the power of the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl to summon the Heavenly Seed of the Supreme Purity and destroy it. Then all the creatures in Fengming Continent would be destroyed together. Shi Lei's expression became more and more distorted. , he doesn’t look like he’s trying to avenge Kyushu, but more like he’s going crazy and losing his mind.
Zhao Ning didn't move, letting him drive the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl, but he didn't get a response for a long time, and even the nearby Negative Cloud Mountain was not affected in any way.
His expression changed drastically, "Why, how could this happen?"
Shi Lei suddenly looked down at Zhao Ning, "It's you, you're the one who did it."
Then, he saw the smile in Zhao Ningbu Da's eyes, and the power of the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl in his hand dissipated little by little, and finally he couldn't hold it at all.
"no no!!!"
Zhao Ning looked at Shi Lei indifferently, "Shi Lei, admit it, everything you did was just for this Hongmeng Dingming Pearl. It took you eight thousand years. Unfortunately, you missed the last step."
But Zhao Ning showed his hand slightly, and the real Hongmeng Dingming Pearl actually appeared in Zhao Ning's hand.
Shi Lei's eyes narrowed, and he instantly understood that the Hongmeng Dingming Bead had been taken away by her a long time ago, and what she had given her just now was just a lie, just to lure him into the bait and expose him.
"You! Shen Zhao Ning!" Shi Lei was so angry that he suddenly attacked Zhao Ning, but the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl fell on Zhao Ning's hand. The closer he got, the more he was trapped by the invisible force until In the end, Shi Lei was hung upside down and imprisoned. The only head he could move was desperately swinging in the direction of Zhao Ning, "Give it back to me!"
Zhao Ning stared at him. This was probably the first time he had been so close to communicate with each other since Shixu separated eight thousand years ago.
She said coldly, "Shi Lei, destroying all sentient beings in the Pure Sky cannot make up for Yu Yu's four million years of suffering in the Nine Levels. It's just that mistakes are compounded. All the mistakes he made in those years were caused by Taoism and heavenly beings, whether it was the Pure Sky or the Nine Levels." God, all ordinary people are like ants under the influence of catastrophe, and no one has the ability to choose."
She raised her hand again to control Shi Lei, "What you call revenge is just passing on grudges and trying to cover up."
Golden light enveloped him layer by layer, and Shi Lei felt the real threat of death. He screamed and shouted, but in vain.
"You are no longer the Shi Lei you were before, who are you anyway—"
Under the questioning, golden light tore his Zifu apart, and Yuan Ling came out screaming, only to see a circle of shadows of divine beasts surrounding Yuan Ling.
"White Tiger!!!" Zhan Xuexuan shouted.
Zhao Ning's expression did not change. The golden light shattered Yuan Ling's struggle. The divine beast roared and escaped from Yuan Ling. It even escaped from the range of the golden light and went straight to the sky.
It wanted to escape, but neither Zhao Ning nor Zhan Xuexuan made a move, because a light and shadow appeared in the sky, and what appeared in the light and shadow was a white tiger statue. The white tiger statue suddenly showed brilliance, and the white tiger's shadow was absorbed. The eyes of the white tiger statue opened. open.
At this moment, circles of ancient and mysterious spells pressed around the white tiger statue, and its eyes gradually closed again.
When the light and shadow dissipated, Bingyi's figure appeared. I don't know if she could sense the situation in Fengming Continent. She just bowed slightly in the direction of Zhao Ning and others.
The light and shadow dispersed at this moment, and the sky became dark again, as if everything was just an illusion.
Zhan Xuexuan never thought that the shadow of the white tiger could directly cross the two directions of the sky. Probably even Zhao Ning did not expect that this might be the power of Jinhe Tianzun to pull the white tiger to its right position.
Bingyi and Tinglan will handle the White Tiger matter in Jiuzhou.
At this moment, Zhao Ning's eyes fell on Shi Lei's Yuanling again. The Yuanling was still struggling desperately, and some of the Yuanling's brilliance was scattered. Under the guidance of the golden light, Shi Lei's memory appeared.
Things are just like what Zhao Ning said, Shi Lei's fundamental purpose is to get the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl and go to Tongtian World.
When Shi Lei and others entered the Jiuzhou Passage, Zhan Xuexuan opened the "door" in the Jiuzhou Passage that led to the Fengming Continent. At the same time, the remnant consciousness of the White Tiger was released. It was at that time that Shi Lei was forced to fall into the Fengming Passage. mainland.
The white tiger's remnant consciousness has not entered reincarnation for some reason. Everyone knows why it is there, but it chose Shi Lei and tried to seize Shi Lei's body, but...
"Damn it! Why are you from the ancient Nine Provinces!" The white tiger's scream almost pierced Shi Lei's sea of consciousness.
Shi Lei said indifferently, "It's your fault. You didn't choose anyone, but you chose me."
The identity of "a man from the ancient Nine Provinces" prevented Bai Hu from seizing Shi Lei's body, and gave Shi Lei the upper hand. He wanted to devour the white tiger, but the white tiger roared, "You can't seize me. I have the mission of Yu Yu. If the mission is not completed, I am immortal!"
"Really?" Shi Lei didn't believe it, "I will find out after you kill him."
The moment the white tiger's consciousness was swallowed up, it merged with Shi Lei, and its mission of "destroying the Tao Seed of Shang Qing Tian" was transferred to Shi Lei. If it is not completed in one day, it cannot leave Shang Qing Tian.
Shi Lei was extremely irritable. He cursed, but to no avail. When he tried to contact Fengming Continent, he saw the raging demons, the violent monsters, and the human race's conquest. Shi Lei slowly raised the corners of his mouth, "What kind of destruction of the Heavenly Dao Seed? This filth It will destroy the Qing Dynasty together."
When he said these words, the shadow behind him was extremely deep, as if a demon had penetrated into the Dharma.
Later, Shi Lei entered the Fengyue Cave and learned about the conflict between the Shangqing Heaven and the Nine Heavens. His understanding was that the Shangqing Heaven failed to swallow the Nine Heavens and instead destroyed itself into several continental fragments, while the Shangqing Heaven Tao Seed was still hidden. In it, he was lingering and gasping for breath, so he had the mission given to Bai Hu by Jinhe Tianzun.
He shocked the Fengming Continent with the technique of Fu Mo Wentian Dao, and learned more about the secrets of the Fengming Continent, especially the Lu family. There was a venerable person in the Lu family who beheaded the Shangqing Tianyuantian four million years ago and was implicated in entering the ninth level. Tian, later died because he was imprisoned by the Master to guide his master. Later, for some unknown reason, he was reincarnated millions of years ago and was ranked as the ninth level Heavenly Master. The Lu family got in touch with this Heavenly Master again, not to mention that the Lu family What reasons did you use to convince this Heavenly Lord to give him the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl?
The information he received from the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl can lead to the way of heaven, chaos, time and space, and all things. He can also use it to reach the heaven and the universe.
"Connecting the sky and the universe?" Shi Lei was surprised and very interested. "It turns out that there are countless worlds outside this world, and there are endless universes. Hahaha, why do I, Shi Lei, have to live in these two chaotic worlds!!"
As a result, a plan to destroy Shangqingtian and seize the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl quietly eroded the entire Fengming Continent.
Zhao Ning lowered his eyes, Shi Lei's Yuanling consciousness still existed, and he knew that his memories were being read, and he couldn't escape, and he was screaming and struggling in anger.
At this moment, Zhao Ning suddenly said to him, "Actually, you have been deceived. Although the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl can travel to Tongtian Universe, there are time and distance restrictions, and you still cannot get rid of Yuantian. Even if you use this to go to Yuantian Tongtian Tianyu will also be punished by the ninth level of heaven."
In the space-time fragment forcibly left behind by Tianzun Le Yi, the Tianshang Tianzun who went to Tongtian Huanyu to overcome the calamity of decline did so through the Hongmeng Dingming Pearl, and finally returned to the Nine Heavens.
Shi Lei's Yuanling froze, and the power he gathered was locked. The Yuanling was wiped out inch by inch, and reincarnation appeared behind the Yuanling.
Zhao Ning said, "Shi Lei, on behalf of Yu Yu, I will drive you into reincarnation to wash away your original evil. As for the grudges of Shangqing Heaven, the cause and effect will persist with reincarnation, which will be your future disaster."
"No - no no -" Yuan Ling's screams seemed to have substance, but they were eventually swallowed up by reincarnation.
Zhao Ning retracted her hand, lowered her eyes, and trapped a trace of silver power in her palm.
Everything returned to calm, Zhan Xuexuan slid slowly to the ground, and even Mr. Yi couldn't hold her back. Perhaps Mr. Yi was still shocked by the scene just now.
After a while, Zhan Xuexuan murmured, "Venerable Zhao Ning..."
Zhao Ning turned to look at her, but Zhan Xuexuan was slow for a long time. Finally, he closed his eyes and raised his head, exposing his fatally fragile neck, "Venerable Zhao Ning, please send me to reincarnation as well."
"Why?" Zhao Ning asked.
Zhan Xuexuan opened his eyes, tears already falling from the corners of his eyes, "They are the people of Lu Jing's lineage who I let go. I am my comrade."
Zhao Ning said curiously, "You let them go, so you go to the Nine Heavens to catch them and come back to atone for your sins. Why do you have to enter reincarnation?"
Zhan Xuexuan opened his mouth, and after a moment, he smiled bitterly and fell to the ground, finally realizing that he had fallen into the trap of self-loathing.
Zhao Ning took a few steps closer and reached out to her. Zhan Xuexuan raised her head and paused. Zhao Ning's tone was calm and gentle, "A person is neither a saint nor a god. Knowing the truth and taking responsibility for the cause and effect is perfection."
Tears fell from the corners of Zhan Xuexuan's eyes, but she smiled. She put her hand on Zhao Ning's hand, and Zhao Ning pulled her up.
Yi Lao looked on and smiled.
Zhao Ning turned around and looked at the Negative Cloud Mountain again. No one was disturbing her at this moment, and the truth of four million years was right in front of her eyes.
She walked closer step by step and felt the negative cloud mountain through the air. The light from the negative cloud mountain suddenly appeared and wandered on the mountain one after another. At the same time, the lines began to become clear and the clouds on the top of the negative cloud mountain gradually dissipated.
Until this moment, Zhao Ning finally clearly saw the true appearance of Negative Cloud Mountain. It was a thick tree trunk with only a trunk and no crown, not even branches. It was completely sealed by stone.
It is the last Shangqingtian Dao seed, but it is banned.
When Zhao Ning's consciousness penetrated into it, he felt the truth of the past suppressed by Negative Cloud Mountain.
Reverse the endless river of time and go four million years ago, only to find that it is not the end.
The past goes back tens of millions of years, and the Shangqingtian at that time was the terrifying Tianwaitian that Zhao Ning experienced in Tianfu.
The Shangqingtian Dao Seed has been completed. Its main body is the Tongtian Sacred Tree, with a diameter of 30,000 miles. The crown of the tree reaches into the sky and the universe. The tree roots are intertwined and spread for thousands of miles. It is the bottom support of the Shangqingtian continent and the ocean.
Penetrating into the branches of the sky and the universe, capturing the new sky in the universe, devouring its Tao seeds to become nutrients for expansion.
"Heaven" is not fixed in a certain place in the sky, it moves along with the laws of the universe, and the clear sky greedily absorbs the wandering "heaven" like a black hole.
Until one day, Jiuchongtian entered the "orbit" near Shangqingtian.
Shangqingtian sensed the unfinished Tao seeds and the brewing of the Three Thousand Great Dao. It was not only the sky, but also the prototype of the world and the world. Therefore, countless branches and vines stretched towards the Nine Heavens.
--"We are one."
——"Come, blend with me and share your origin."
--"bring it on."
Zhao Ning once again saw the scene when his consciousness was trapped by the giant tree in the sky - the light as vast as the Milky Way spread out across the entire universe, and there seemed to be a figure in the Milky Way. Come.
Until this moment, Zhao Ning suddenly understood that the scene was the counterattack of Jiuchongtian, or the counterattack of the Taoist. Because the Taoism had not yet been completed, only the Taoist could appear.
The countless devouring branches and vines of Shangqingtian Daozong were cut off, and Jiuchongtian broke away from the nearby "orbit" and sank into the depths of the heaven and earth.
