There has never been a candle in this world.
But obviously, the birth of "thaumaturgy" and "doorway" does not depend on candles.
This is a "phenomenon" and a "rule".
The death of King Qi is just a "result" caused by the ruthless operation of "rules".
Zheng Xiu had previously speculated on the necessary elements for the "candle" to complete the ritual: a large number of human souls, the interface between the eternal darkness and the eternal world, and human pillars.
During the thousand-year reincarnation process, Zheng Xiu realized that there was a big loophole in his deduction theory of the rules.
For example, in the original Baili Village.
A large number of human souls impacted the barrier between the two realms. The moment they broke through, the only people who were pulled into the darkness were Feng Bei and Wei Chen. Besides him, why?
In the past, Zheng Xiu thought that this was Zhu's layout and that he had made "arrangements" in it. But later Zheng Xiu discovered that no, the incident in Baili Village was not Zhu's "arrangement", but a simple "accident". So he, who was also in constant darkness, was not dragged away, which made this matter a little more intriguing.
Zheng Xiu tried, explored, and reincarnated.
After countless gropings, he came to a conclusion - pollution.
The more "pollution" a person endures, the more "affiliated" he is with Changdian. In short, the closer he gets to that place, the more he will be taken away by it.
"Wei Chen" was young, ignorant and fearful, and "Feng Bei" was full of despair and helplessness in the world.
Although Zheng Xiu was using the vest of "Zheng Shan" in Baili Village at that time, he was also suffering from "crazy pollution" at that time. If the pollution really took hold, he would end up like Feng Bei and Wei Chen.
Back to today.
In full view of the public, Zheng Xiu staged a drama of enthronement. He dug up the Wei family's ancestral graves and laid the ashes of previous emperors into gold bricks for Wei Ruyi to step on and ascend to the throne. One was for the "ceremony" and the other was to pray for the king.
Zheng Xiu was very clear about King Qi's weaknesses. Old Wei was right. Among his three sons, the eldest prince was calm and farsighted. He seemed to have no weaknesses except not being radical enough. However, in reincarnation after reincarnation, Zheng Xiu had enough "time" to explore a person thoroughly. He also learned that deep down in his heart, King Qi was actually a person who paid great attention to the blood of his clan and was proud of his royal blood. man.
Zheng Xiu dug up his ancestral graves, cut off the Wei family's retreat, and founded a new country. This move was equivalent to cutting off the future of the Wei family's bloodline.
In an instant, King Qi broke through his defenses and his heart collapsed. As he opened the door, pollution overwhelmed his reason, using him as a "pillar" to open up the darkness.
Lady Anne's eyes were bright and she didn't pay any attention to the perverted monk. Her cat eyes were staring at the sky without blinking, and she meowed: "It's coming, meow."
…
"ah……"
Behind the monk, the shadow split into seven.
The seven shadows are either tall or short, enchanting or strong, fat or thin, human or inhuman.
They lurk in the monk's "shadow" and take on various shapes.
Rub rub rub rub.
Scarlet eyes suddenly opened in the shadow, and they were densely packed like a honeycomb. The shadows were spread apart, and their eyes were squeezed together without any gaps.
"vomit……"
Xi'er's face turned pale, as if she was happy, and she opened her mouth to retching.
"ah……"
The monk's eyes were as dark as ink, with traces of gossamer-like tentacles overflowing from his eyes. He stood on the open ground with his hands spread wide.
Rumble, rumble——
Suddenly, the ground shook violently, the altar and the Wei Imperial Mausoleum collapsed instantly, the ground cracked, and sharp stone pillars protruded from the cracked gaps.
"ah!"
"puff!"
Accompanied by screams, dozens of Jingzong monks were penetrated by sharp stone pillars in the blink of an eye, and were pierced through the stone pillars like skewers.
At the monk's feet, one of the thickest black stone pillars sent the monk high into the sky. In the blink of an eye, he was standing ten feet in the air, overlooking the earth. The ground was bleeding like pillars, and corpses were everywhere. In the blink of an eye, it was already a miserable and messy scene.
"Die."
The monk waved his hand.
"Those who haven't opened the seventh door, please step back!"
Zheng Xiu's eyes narrowed, and a white-haired shadow flashed behind him. It was the sword master [Zheng Baimei]. As soon as Zheng Xiu finished speaking, stone pillars like a forest of stalactites swung out from the center of the monk's feet like tsunami waves, piercing the ground with a huge sound that was deafening.
Rows of "stone thorns" covered dozens of miles in an instant, which was called a natural disaster.
The shock of the stone thorns spread to the imperial city. In the distance, the mountains collapsed, and less than half of the imperial city was turned into ruins. There were endless wailings in the city, and the corpses of the people who had been penetrated were everywhere.
"It's 'mountain'!"
Zheng Xiu took one step forward, and almost at the moment when the "monk" took action, he put his two fingers together, unsheathed his invisible sword intention, and slashed horizontally with an ordinary sword.
The sword is tangible, but the mind is invisible. At this moment, in Zheng Xiu's hands, the invisible sword intention was more powerful than the visible sword. The sword intention covered five miles, and a circle of frightening sword light flashed away, like lightning, shook for a moment, and then stopped. Waves of "stalagmites" shook around like a tsunami. The roots of the sharp stone pillars were neatly cut off, and the ends were as smooth as mirrors!
laugh!
The aftermath of the instant confrontation shattered Zheng Xiu's hair. Zheng Xiu turned his face slightly, leaving a shallow scratch on his cheek. His long hair was blown back to the back of his head, revealing the beautiful peak in front of his forehead.
Swish, swish, swish!
At the moment when the "mountain" land thorn was chopped into pieces, time seemed to pause for a moment. The people around them were showing off their magical powers to avoid disasters, as if they were getting to know their sect master for the first time. The human body, which seemed no different from them, actually hid a power that could rival evil spirits.
"Evil evil spirit", yes, the monk at this moment is already very human in the eyes of everyone, but " evil evil spirit", or the incarnation of evil evil spirit, which cannot be described by human beings.
Zheng Xiu waved his arms, but he didn't even take a step back. This time, the sharp sword intent was released without reservation. No move, no style, no desire, no desire, no joy, no sorrow, just follow your heart. This is what Zheng Xiu has been doing secretly over the years. What I realized was that I spent hundreds of years refining the "One Sword Intent" from the "One Sword Intention".
To put it bluntly, there is no trick.
Faced with any move, he would use the same move.
Quickly cutting off all the stone thorns, the monk had reached high altitude. Zheng Xiu's left hand was filled with ink shadows, and he took the orange cat and flew high into the sky.
After some twists and turns, the ghost world was formed. With King Qi as the pillar, a ghost space independent of the world has been created here. In the process of flying high into the sky, in the huge vortex in the sky, a blood-red light suddenly penetrated the clouds, slowly descended from the huge cave, and was revealed to the world.
That was a... blood-red sword!
The sword body is long and slender, penetrating the heaven and earth, and cutting down the world. One side is covered with mysterious words, and the other side is covered with red eyes, rotating downwards.
Zheng Xiu's pupils shrank and his eyebrows felt painful. The chain penetrated from the strange thing between his eyebrows, penetrated the void in an instant, and took out the giant sword. His chains looked extremely weak and insignificant in front of the huge blood sword, as if an earthworm was shaking a tree or an ant was striking an elephant.
But when Zheng Xiu's [Prisoner] showed its power, it stood tall between heaven and earth. The majestic blood sword actually trembled and clanged with swords visible to the naked eye, and quickly shrank to the size of a palm, moving flexibly in the air. Dodge Zheng Xiu's "Prisoner's Chain".
At this time, Zheng Xiu heard the sound of the orange cat drooling in her ears. She stared at the "blood sword" and chirped: "Fengbei's fried fish cakes, meow."
below.
Everyone was already stunned by the vision in the sky, but everyone's reactions were slightly different. They said strange words in no particular order.
Zheng Haoran: "What a big fist."
Chuntao: "The shining golden treasure chest."
The Wolf King's eyes widened: "What a big Zheng Haoran!"
Qing Shisan was astonished: "The red lotus root of my youth!"
Ji Hongou's eyes were blurry: "Poison is the overlord! A jar of unparalleled poison!"
Jun Buxiao took off his mask and looked at the sky in disbelief: "An ever-changing mask!"
Yue Linglong: "So many husbands!"
Xi'er: "Endless needles and thread!"
Wei Ruyi: "My brother!"
Pei Gaoya: "A bed that can't be broken!"
Zheng Xiu heard all the people's voices. In an instant, he suddenly realized that the thing named [Emperor] was actually different from other strange things. It had thousands of faces and was ever-changing, reflecting different "appearances".
[Emperor] initially fell in the direction of Wei Ruyi, but due to the interference of Zheng Xiu's "Prisoner's Creature" midway, it suddenly shrank and changed direction. The monk standing on the stone pillar opened his mouth wide. His mouth was like a bottomless black hole. The wind was blowing everywhere, and the swirling clouds were twisted into a funnel shape under the suction of the monk's mouth, and was sucked into the monk's mouth.
"Hee hee hee……"
The monk's dark eyes narrowed slightly, and two lines of black blood tears flowed down.
"Quick! Catch the fried fish... no, catch the emperor!"
Lady Anne became anxious when she saw it. She patted Zheng Xiu's head hard, pointed at the monk who was sucking [Emperor] into his mouth and shouted: "They use the bald head as a container. As long as they kill the bald head, in a short time, he will We can't 'come in' again and will be kicked out! That's our chance!"
"kill him!"
"kill him!"
"kill him!"
Anne's voice was gentle at first, then became more and more shrill, like a demonic voice.
Zheng Xiu's pupils were cold and slightly white, his long hair was fluttering in the wind, his two fingers gathered the wind and clouds of the world, and with one sword...
…
"Monk."
Billions of corpses turned the world into a sea of blood. Among the floating ruins, Zheng Xiu was exhausted and lay on a floating roof.
call! call! call!
The fishy stench that hit his face made Zheng Xiu regain some clarity. The monk's back was facing him, and his clothes behind him were white and spotless.
"Brother, are you awake?"
"woke up."
The huge black hole is like a scorching sun, hanging high in the sky. This failure caused the "knot" in the doorway to increase instead of decreasing. The huge distortion turned the black hole into a "monster" that swallowed everything.
Huge eyes peer into the black hole, and tentacles as huge as mountains are just the tip of the iceberg revealed by the monsters behind the black hole, which are infiltrating into the world unscrupulously.
"I... lost." Zheng Xiu struggled to get up and smiled miserably at the monk: "It was me who hurt you."
"It's nothing," the monk shook his head vigorously. His laughter was like a beam of light in the dark night, diluting the gloom in Zheng Xiu's heart: "I remember it, little monk. Thank you for your hard work, brother."
Zheng Xiu suddenly felt frightened and his throat was hoarse. He said to the monk, "Monk, turn around."
"No need?"
"turn around!"
The monk turned around hesitantly. A large piece of his forehead was missing, and his white brain was stained with blood, flowing down his smile.
Seeing Zheng Xiu's frightening look, the monk waved his hands quickly: "Young monk, it's okay. The young monk felt that there was a lot of noise in his skull, so he reached out and dug out a piece, and his ears were immediately clear!"
"Brother!" The monk, with white blood flowing from his head, happily shook Zheng Xiu's arm and said coquettishly, "Young monk has a way to deal with them!"
Zheng Xiu was silent.
He pointed at his healing head and grinned: "Xiao Monk can imprison them. They seem to like Xiao Monk especially. We brothers and sisters are also willing to help Xiao Monk. Let's work together to trick them in and fool them. !”
Zheng Xiu's face turned slightly pale and he said nothing.
But the more the monk talked, the happier he became. He felt that there was something interesting and started dancing.
At the end of the world, there is devastation, and only two brothers dance on the ruins.
"When the time comes, just chirp and pat the young monk on the head."
Zheng Xiu lowered his head, ignored the monk, painted in the void, drew a pair of wings, and flew towards the dark "scorching sun".
The monk was behind Zheng Xiu. As Zheng Xiu was swallowed up and melted by the scorching sun, the monk's figure gradually faded. He sat down cross-legged, smiled, clasped his hands together, and murmured in a low voice: "It's okay, little monk... don't be afraid. .”
…
If you have never faced the abyss, you will never know how terrifying it is.
If you have never jumped into the abyss, you will never know what is hidden under the abyss.
…
A sword...
High in the sky, on two dark stone pillars, separated by a hundred feet, the two people looked at each other from a distance.
Zheng Xiu pointed his finger, gathered his sword intent, and quietly dispersed it at the critical moment.
The monk's eyes were filled with blood and tears, and he opened his mouth to swallow [Emperor]. Half of his face showed an expectant look, and the other half showed a ferocious smile. He opened his arms high in the air, opened and closed his lips, and said two words silently.
The words on his lips were clearly: Brother.
…
Lady Anne noticed the "weakness" in Zheng Xiu's heart. A look of disdain appeared on the cat's face, and she sneered: "Humph, human being." But when the words came out of her mouth, a trace of relief and brilliance appeared in the depths of Anne's eyes. She was still I'm worried that Zheng Xiu's divinity has been shaped irreversibly, but now it seems like it's just average.
"Is that the emperor?"
"Yes!" Anne nodded: "The 'Emperor', as the 'center' of all keys, has done a certain amount of 'encryption', but the 'appearance' of the Emperor's appearance varies from person to person. To put it simply, the 'Emperor''s ability is 'Extreme', which can act as an amplification for other doors. Anyone who sees the 'Emperor' will get a glimpse of what they most desire or long for."
Annie thought for a while and said: "You still have about seven days to consider whether to kill the bald man. It's not that simple for them to untie the 'Emperor'."
"Son!"
After swallowing [Emperor], the monk kept his arms open. Zheng Xiu did not attack the monk, and the monk did not attack everyone again, and he was quiet for a while.
The lead-like dark clouds in the sky were twisted into chaotic shapes, floating in groups in front of everyone.
Rows of secret book stone thorns were destroyed by Zheng Xiu and only a few remained, scattered throughout a ten-mile radius. Zheng Haoran climbed up the nearest one with his bare hands, worried about his son, and shouted from a distance.
Wolf King, Xi'er, Jun Buxiao, Qing Shisan, Pei Gaoya, Ji Hongou, Situ Yong, Ye, Snake...
As an elite next to Zheng Xiu climbed to the top of the stone pillar, they either stood proudly in the wind or squatted. When they each stood up a pillar, there was a moment of silence. Everyone looked at the monk in the center, and there was a subtle feeling. A sense of sight came to mind.
The wind blew, and Xi'er brushed her hair away from her ears, and suddenly smiled: "Xi'er suddenly had the illusion that she had been on a mission before."
Ye thought for a moment and then said with a sudden look on his face: "Lu Zhen?"
Situ Yong suddenly covered his waist and glared at Jun Buxiao: "My waist!"
Jun Buxiao scratched his head, not remembering: "It has nothing to do with me."
They don't quite understand how to describe it.
But at this moment, everyone felt a familiar... atmosphere of fighting a BOSS.
In the city, Mo Zhui, who was in chaos due to the destruction of the town and was rescuing people from disasters as Master Mo, suddenly sneezed and wiped his nose. Mo Zhui was startled and suddenly felt a chill in his belly. He touched it: "I feel like my belly has been cut open. It's weird!"
Annie's nose twitched, and she slapped her forehead with her jade foot. She was surprised to find that a wisp of white light appeared on everyone's body, turning into a bunch of undetectable thin threads, connected to each other.
Finally, they converged on Zheng Xiu.
"Reason? Are their reasons connected together?" Orange Cat was surprised: "The world has mutated and time has passed by, but the 'reason' between them can't be cut off?"
Zheng Xiu suddenly turned his head and looked at the orange cat with a half-smiling look. That look seemed to understand everything, which made Lady Anne's heart flutter.
"Why are you so familiar with the 'Emperor'?"
Zheng Xiu asked.
Lady Anne quickly said: "I am omniscient, omnipotent, and arrogant..."
Before he finished speaking, Zheng Xiu showed a look of surprise: "No wonder, I thought it was strange before. Among the many 'them', you are the only one who is particularly different."
"There are also contradictions in what you said before. You said that in your existence, there is no 'death', only 'retrospection', and 'retrospection' is more terrifying than 'death'. And when you described that existence, you used An ambiguous word for 'fall'."
"I just thought it was weird."
Lady Anne opened the cat's mouth smoothly, and the pink mucous membrane inside was shocked and speechless.
"It turns out that the fallen existence you said...is you."
Zheng Xiu calmly expressed his thoughts.
"Meow!" Lady Anne froze with a look of "shocked meow" on her face.
"Forget it," Zheng Xiu said again, patting the cat's head: "I promised you and I won't break my promise."
"do you know?"
"Although it was the monk who took the initiative to be their container, trap them inside, and let me annihilate them in one fell swoop."
"What the monk doesn't know is that I will never sacrifice my best friend in order to untie the biggest knot."
"I secretly made a decision."
"If I kill him this time,"
"I will die with him."
Zheng Xiu flew forward, with colorful light and shadow in his hand, and slapped the monk on the head with a palm, showing a relieved smile.
"I've had enough of life anyway."
