After the official swordsman left with the fruit, his remaining sword energy froze everything in the cavity and prevented others from entering.
It wasn't until the sound of the Tianyin pot sounded and Li Chuan passed through the gap in the words that he broke the stillness of countless years.
At this time, Li Chuan could notice that the remaining sword energy was quickly fading in the hollow, and the roots deep in the Tianzhu seemed to be moving.
At the same time, he vaguely felt that as long as the sky pillar's light shined, all the details were within his perception. He seemed to be able to easily pull out the picture he wanted to see from the surge, whether it was in the past or present. Still the future.
He also felt that something had faded from his body. He became a little less interested. The changes in Wochi over the past millions of years seemed to occur in a blink of an eye in his eyes, and the millions of years that followed seemed to only take place in a breath.
His eyes suddenly darkened.
The light of the Tianzhu went out.
Li Chuan felt that his consciousness suddenly drifted away, then was caught up by Yuan Si, and then stabilized in the continuous sound of the pot.
And the light came on again.
What happened in the short moment when darkness fell?
He thought, then realized he was back in the void. He walked to the gap between the words and looked out. The shadow of the ancient beast in the sky was rapidly getting smaller and soon disappeared. Wen Guying walked out from under the shadow, seemingly finding nothing.
Li Chuan suddenly realized that the ancient beast was just a bait to attract their attention. The true purpose of the half-demon woman is...
His eyes moved.
He saw beside the Tianzhu, Gong Er and Pang San, although their eyes were filled with fear, were still guarding him vigilantly. Jiang Mei was holding the Yuanhuo Mirror, looking towards a certain direction...
Where is Chang Xiao?
He looked in the direction facing the mirror. Amidst the sound of the pot, the distant scene quickly moved across his field of vision.
Soon, he saw a woman wrapped in animal skins, running barefoot on the ground, and she was holding a struggling person in her hands.
Li Chuan saw his face clearly, it was Chang Xiao.
The real target of the half-demon woman is Chang Xiao.
The half-demon woman was running in the direction of darkness. Just when Li Chuan was about to do something, he felt that he couldn't get through. The surge in front stopped, and the darkness blocked his consciousness.
In that darkness, there was complete silence, and neither light nor sound could enter.
Li Chuan stopped. It was time for him to go back.
The "Pattern Sutra" was closed and fell back into his hand. Li Chuan stood up directly. At the same time, Wen Guying also fell from the sky and returned to the Tianzhu.
"Mr. Chang was kidnapped." Jiang Mei narrated the previous situation and said: "When the light of the Tianzhu dimmed just now, all the formations stopped operating. I thought her target was Li Chuan. At first she also It was indeed coming towards Li Chuan, but she feinted...I couldn't deal with it, and she succeeded. I was afraid that she had accomplices, so I didn't chase her."
"I also fell into the trap. That ancient beast was just a false projection." Then, Wen Guying asked: "Have you seen clearly the person who kidnapped Young Master Chang?"
"I saw it. It's a half-demon woman. The Yuanhuo Mirror caught her, and she went over there." Jiang Mei pointed in the direction and said, "There is something there that blocks my perception."
"Let me go take a look," Wen Guying said, and then asked: "If the light of the Tianzhu goes out again, can you deal with it?"
Jiang Mei thought for a moment and then said, "Okay."
"good……"
"Wait a minute, Director Wen, I just saw her," Li Chuan called to Wen Guying and said, "I saw her running into the darkness with Chang Xiao."
Jiang Mei and Wen Guying looked at him at the same time.
Before they could ask questions, Li Chuan quickly told everything he knew.
"Is the official-robed swordsman the same person you saw in the phantom of Xuanshui Mountain?" Wen Guying asked.
"The same one." Li Chuan said.
Wen Guying looked at Jiang Mei again and asked, "Do you have the right person?"
Jiang Mei shook her head and said: "Most immortals can't pierce the Tianzhu with a sword, and Sangu Qizhen's words... are not like it. Therefore, let's take care of the matter in front of you first."
"I understand," Wen Guying pondered for a moment and said, "There are two possibilities for the half-demon woman to temporarily extinguish the Tianzhu light. One is that the seal of the ancient demon is loose or invalid, causing the entire Wochi formation to malfunction. The second fault is that there are some problems with the Tianzhu itself, such as the holes and roots mentioned by Li Chuan."
He paused and said, "Or maybe both."
"She should also have a space magic weapon on her... Dr. Li's previous dream may have been her driving the magic weapon, trying to quietly pull us into the darkness." Jiang Mei connected what happened along the way.
He took two steps left and right and said, "She probably planned for a long time to make the Tianzhu light go out, but we still have to be prepared that the Tianzhu light will continue to go out, or even stop lighting up."
"Brother Li, do you have a way to pull out the seed roots in the Tianzhu?" Wen Guying asked.
"You can give it a try." Li Chuan said. At this moment, he thought of something and added, "I think the target of the half-demon woman may not be Chang Xiao, but the butterfly spirit in Chang Xiao's body."
"Butterfly spirit...if the swordsman in official robes had not appeared, I speculate that it would have been born after it was fully mature, maybe hundreds of thousands of years later." Li Chuan said, his thoughts becoming clearer, "It Absorbing the energy of the Tianzhu, it is also constantly surging here, watching everything that has happened in this world for hundreds of millions of years, the past, present and future."
"You mean the half-demon woman will come back?" Wen Guying asked.
"Maybe." Li Chuan said.
"The plan remains unchanged. You continue to ring the Tianyin pot and try to see if you can repair the Tianzhu. The Tianzhu... is the pillar of this world. All spiritual veins originate from here. If there is a problem with the Tianzhu, it will be a big problem. That's it." Wen Guying said.
"good."
"Brother Jiang, you continue to guard here. I'd better chase her. It's best if I can catch up. If not, I will lurk nearby. If her target is the butterfly spirit as Brother Li guessed, I can also Follow up as soon as possible." Wen Guying explained his arrangements one by one, and finally he said: "In short, we will rescue Chang Xiao first, and then we will talk about the rest."
"Okay." Jiang Mei had no objection.
Li Chuan thought for a while and then asked: "Can you two get in touch? Just..."
Wen Guying understood it immediately and said, "Okay."
"Then if I see anything, I will tell Director Jiang." Li Chuan said.
"Okay, I'm going." After Wen Guying finished speaking, he chased out again.
Li Chuan moved for a while and sat down. He closed his eyes and was about to rub the Tianyin pot when he released his thumb and opened his eyes. He asked Gong Er: "How long until dawn?"
