Zheng Xiu’s [Prisoner] artifact was in dilapidated condition.
"Authority" can also be broken.
Not to mention the deputy authority.
Anne's "elegance" is a living example.
It seems that "justice" is too.
Zheng Haoran and others suddenly became quiet and held their breath.
The moment Zheng Xiu flew his sword, the collapsed ghosts, the shattered city, the invading Black Sea, and the shattered earth all seemed to become less important.
Everyone looked at Zheng Xiu's hand that threw the flying knife. They vaguely realized that whether they could survive or not depended on Zheng Xiu's final blow.
At this moment, Zheng Xiu has a tragic feeling that "will never come back", like a silently humming lament, infecting this broken world, leaving only this "painting" in everyone's eyes, allowing them all to share it. As if in love, he resonated with Zheng Xiu's mood at the moment and was infected by this tragic atmosphere.
The translucent flying knife was entangled with black lightning, and the lightning vibrated and shattered the space. The Jinghong Flying Knife was like a straight black light, a black light that seemed to reach the end point from the moment it was released and penetrated everything on the way. It instantly passed through the center of the black lotus like a black hole.
call out!
The flying knife penetrated the black lotus without losing its force, and went straight to the monk's eyebrows.
The monk looked relieved, smiled slightly, fully stretched his arms, and actively faced Zheng Xiu's flying knife.
"Monk!"
Zheng Xiu was shocked, furious, and chased after the flying knife.
"Sparrow in prison!"
"Demon birth!"
The wings stretched out behind Zheng Xiu, and black lines spread all over Zheng Xiu's body. The black lines that once looked evil and weird have become intermittent due to the fragmentation of the [Prisoner], and they have long lost their original mystery. The backlash caused by the possession of two evil things is extraordinary. He opened his mouth and spit out a large mouthful of blood, twisted his neck 180 degrees as if it was broken, and spit out the mouth cannon.
The reverberation of the giant cannon caused Zheng Xiu to fly even faster. Phew! There was a brief sound of wind in the space, and after a moment everything was silent. This is faster than a "sonic boom", and the space is shattered, cutting off all sound and light - an "air blast". Zheng Xiu caught up with the flying knife thrown a moment ago in the blink of an eye, and reached out to grab the handle of the flying knife.
He felt that the "good monk" had the upper hand in an instant. With this sword strike, it was very likely that the good monk would be killed!
"Hide in, monk!"
Zheng Xiu's two fingers suddenly grasped the handle of the flying knife.
Snapped!
Due to excessive force, two of Zheng Xiu's fingers were broken.
The flying knife moved slightly slowly, but the speed of the attack was too fast. Even if Zheng Xiu tried his best, he could only slow down the flying knife slightly. Zheng Xiu's eyes were split as he watched the flying knife shoot towards the monk. between the eyebrows.
The monk clasped his hands together.
"Little monk, I would like to be my big brother and go to hell once."
The monk's face was compassionate and peaceful at the moment. He accepted it all happily. At that moment, he accepted Zheng Xiu's murderous intention, accepted Zheng Xiu's sadness, accepted Zheng Xiu's pain, accepted Zheng Xiu's reincarnation, accepted His own...death.
The dark lotus petals peeled off silently, revealing the white stamens inside.
"Hahahaha!"
The monk's compassionate and peaceful face suddenly turned into a twisted and ferocious face, and dark blood overflowed from between his white teeth.
"Hahahaha!"
"Hehehe! Hehehe! You've been fooled! You've been fooled!"
The "Evil Monk" opened his mouth and bit the flying knife with his red and white teeth.
…
Anne watched all this blankly.
"Lost."
Lady Anne shook her head helplessly.
Look down on life and death.
She would soon be meowing in the arms of the unnamed tom.
This is the most tragic.
From the moment Zheng Xiu suddenly softened due to the change in the monk's face and stopped the castration with a flying knife, Anne was convinced that Zheng Xiu had lost this time.
Not long ago, Zheng Xiu gave Lady Anne such a tiny, meaningless, tiny bit of hope, a tiny spark that couldn't even ignite the fire of hope. This tiny spark also followed Zheng Xiu. His hesitation and soft-heartedness were wiped out.
But in the final analysis, the reason for extinguishing this weak spark was not Zheng Xiu's weakness. In the final analysis, Anne concluded, it is because at the end, the "humanity" in Zheng Xiu's heart defeated his immature "divinity".
"Humph, this is human beings. Just human beings."
"You talk nicely, what kind of humanity are you talking about, but if it weren't for this humanity, you would have won long ago."
Annie sneered and laughed heartily, taunting Zheng Xiu who was motionless in the air without showing any dignity.
Smiling and laughing, Annie's figure flickered in and out, and her coat became lighter and lighter.
The green light in her eyes gradually faded.
Her eyes as clear as emeralds lost their sparkle, and two big tears called "regret" squeezed out of the corners of their eyes.
She regretted it.
If I had known this, when I was doing the "underlying settings", I should have set it to a female cat pouting at a male cat.
Smiling, she could no longer speak. She was stunned for a moment, meowing, wandering around the desert a few times in a daze, curling up and shivering, lowering her head to lick the messy forks between her paws. hair.
"Meow~"
At this moment, the once arrogant Lady Anne, who claimed to be great, proud, invincible and elegant, turned into a real little female cat, a little female cat who was about to meow and pout in the arms of an ordinary male cat. .
No one noticed the changes in an orange cat.
An orange cat still appears to be an orange cat.
Everyone looked at the frozen figure in the sky.
And like a demon Buddha, the ferocious-looking demon monk is entrenched at the end of the broken sky.
"Hey!"
The monk's bleeding teeth bit hard, and the flying knife cracked, and the next second, it was completely shattered into powder.
"Pooh!"
The monk spit out the fragments of the flying knife, and the light wheel behind him was completely blackened, and the ninth wheel opened.
"Little monk, you have reached perfection!"
The monk chuckled, clasped his hands and hung them high in the air.
"Even if there is no 'mother' key, the young monk only needs to cut off the relationship with his elder brother, and he will be able to transcend. We... can leave here!"
This is what the demon monk had in mind.
He wanted to copy Fengbei's "detached" path.
Cut off all reason and transcend the world!
The monk spent his whole life lonely, helpless, and alone until he met Zheng Xiu. The only bonds he had in his life were Feng Bei and Zheng Xiu. He and Feng Bei fell in love with each other as siblings, but Feng Bei transcended, and now only Zheng Xiu is left.
His "internal conflict" has been resolved, and all he needs to do next is to kill Zheng Xiu completely. He can "detach himself" without Anne's authority!
now.
Zheng Xiu's eyes were dull, and he couldn't tell whether it was despair, confusion, emptiness, or sadness.
Or perhaps, at this moment, Zheng Xiu's eyes did not hide any emotion, he was just looking at somewhere or something without focus.
He slowly raised his palm, and there lay quietly a twenty-sided die that had lost its red luster. It was the strange thing that once gave him the ability of "prisoner", and the "cage" that he once enjoyed so much.
[Prisoner] The strange thing turned into fine powder, like fine sand, flowing silently between Zheng Xiu's fingers.
The sound of chains breaking reached his ears.
Zheng Xiu closed his eyes.
He did not have any emotional ups and downs due to the shattering of the strange thing. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were as dark as ink and as calm as a mirror.
"Um?"
Although the demon monk was crazy, he was not stupid. In the blink of an eye, he noticed something was wrong.
Zheng Xiu is no longer a stranger after losing his ability to use magic objects. He should have lost all his abilities and should not still be able to float in the air. In fact, all the abnormalities on Zheng Xiu's body have disappeared without a trace. There are no longer any traces of innate strangeness on his body, and there are no longer any exposed signs of evil things. At this moment, Zheng Xiu was as ordinary as an ordinary person seen everywhere on the street.
"you?"
The unbridled smile on the monk's face suddenly faded. He clasped his hands together and appeared in front of Zheng Xiu in the blink of an eye, pressing down with his palm.
Zheng Xiu smiled slightly: "All conditioned dharmas are like bubbles in a dream, like dew or lightning, and should be viewed as such."
Monster monk: "?"
He raised his fist and punched the monk in the face.
The "ordinary" fist knocked the monk away, and wheeze, he flew away like a meteor.
郑修一拳揍飞和尚后，在众人惊愕的目光中，落到低头舔舐爪子的橘猫面前。
He added another sentence: "One thought arises, one thought dies, and thousands of bubbles are born here."
The orange cat raised his head.
Zheng Xiu looked at his palm, with a look of surprise on his face, and stretched out his hand to pinch the orange cat's face a few times.
The orange cat stared at Zheng Xiu with a cute expression at first, stretched out his tongue and licked it. But after a while, the two eyes of the orange cat regained their emerald-like glow.
"You! How dare you blaspheme my delicate body!"
Anne stared.
"I find that you are more likable after looking back, so I'd better get it back."
Zheng Xiu stretched out his other hand, trying to squeeze back Anne who had just come back for three seconds.
"Don't!"
Annie twisted her butt, stuck out her butt, and wagged her tail, struggling in Zheng Xiu's hand: "I don't want it!"
"Come, give me a smile."
Annie forced out a smile that was uglier than crying.
Zheng Xiu then put Annie back on the ground.
Annie pinched the skin on her chest and wagged her tail. She instantly deleted the memory of groveling and wagging her tail in front of stupid humans to beg for mercy. She deleted it completely. As long as the memory was deleted, she would not be afraid.
After a while, Annie always felt that something was wrong with her whole body. She subconsciously covered the down on her chest and frowned, asking Zheng Xiu: "What did you do to me?"
Zheng Xiu shook his head and did not reply to Annie. Instead, he replied with a strange sentence without any clue:
"'Only where you go anchors the truth.'"
Annie: "?"
Zheng Xiu slowly floated back into the air, and after "pinching" Annie back, the monk who was knocked away by a punch was engulfed in black flames and flew back fiercely like an evil ghost.
The nimbus behind him never turned back to white.
It's just that the demon monk at this moment has long lost the calmness and arrogance he had before being beaten. One side of his face had human skin and flesh knocked off by Zheng Xiu's punch, revealing a row of neat teeth, cracked to the base of the ear, and dark. Blood spilled from the wound.
Black air flowed out of his mouth that couldn't be closed.
Zheng Xiu looked at his fists and wondered: "Give me Piao Piao Fist? Friendship Breaking Fist? Something is wrong."
The demon monk gritted his teeth, with murderous intent in his eyes, and stabbed Zheng Xiu like a sharp sword: "What... are you?"
ground.
Anne stared blankly as Zheng Xiu and the monk resumed their fierce battle. After a moment, she finally realized where the sense of dissonance came from. She quickly raised her paws, showing her "elegant" authority.
The next second, Annie was completely stunned.
The "throne" formed by the messy squeeze and twist on her authority has a small piece with jade feet neatly arranged. It's like a row of delicately arranged jade feet on a woman's shoe cabinet.
In other words, her authority was shaped into Zheng Xiu's shape.
…
"what do you'!"
"what do you'!"
The demon monk covered his torn face and asked in a hoarse voice.
Asked over and over again.
Zheng Xiu didn't hide anything and stared at the monk: "Same as you."
The demon monk was stunned.
Zheng Xiu smiled and said, "You changed from an 'ascetic' to a 'Buddha', and I also changed from a 'prisoner'."
The demon monk was so shocked that his neck bent outwards, making a fracture sound. The bent neck made the demon monk's body look like a ghost at this moment, which was extremely weird.
"Only where I go, I anchor the truth." Zheng Xiu sighed: "To put it bluntly, it is very simple. What is locked in the 'cage' is the real me. I have been in the 'cage' all this time. Greedy for the appearance brought by the 'cage', I was willing to stay in that small prison without looking at the outside world."
"Then what exactly are you?"
"Is it important?" Zheng Xiu asked back. He took steps in the void, and circles of ripple-like light and shadow swayed under Zheng Xiu's feet. There were several incarnation shadows faintly flashing behind him. Zheng Xiu came to the astonished demon monk and stood face to face: "I am the 'true self' in the cage, the 'self', and the 'reality'. That's all. The rest is not important."
Zheng Xiu slowly raised his fist, and the demon monk let out a shrill roar like a tsunami. The black light in his fist almost condensed into a beam, and it collided with Zheng Xiu's fist face to face.
There is no strong brilliance, no exciting special effects, and no earth-shattering power. Zheng Xiu's fist seemed ordinary, but when his fist collided with the monk's terrifying "evil retribution" fist, the monk's distorted face suddenly became a little kinder, and behind him, an illusory black shadow appeared It was punched out of the monk's body and dissipated in mid-air.
Anne felt sad after realizing that her jade feet had turned into the shape of Zheng Xiu, but she quickly returned her attention to the battle between the two. When Annie saw with her own eyes that the "black shadow" in the monk's body was blasted out of his body, she meowed and almost choked to death on her own saliva.
"Ah??? What the hell???"
The demon monk howled in pain. Zheng Xiu punched the monk hard on the left side of his face again, causing the monk's face to become distorted.
Another illusory black shadow was shot out of the monk's body and disappeared without a trace like gas.
Next is the right cheek.
Zheng Xiu's fists were swinging faster and faster, as if he had mastered the "secret". The fists were like a violent storm, drowning the monk. More and more black energy escaped from every pore of the monk's body as Zheng Xiu waved his fists. spread out.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The only thing left in the shattered world was the dull sound of Zheng Xiu's fist falling on the monk's face.
The most high-end deathmatches often take the most unpretentious approach. In the eyes of others, Zheng Xiu beat the monk unreasonably, just like a street gang fighting. But in Anne's eyes, this scene had a different flavor.
It is authority, it must be authority, but what kind of authority is this?
She was keenly aware that as the black energy dissipated, the personality in the monk's body was changing from evil to good with an intensity that could not be seen by the naked eye. The beaten monk seemed to be the one who hit him, and his ferocious face became increasingly distorted. In order to be kind, the monk gradually had a smile on his face, and the more he was beaten, the happier he felt.
"Personality modification punch???"
Anne was stunned.
"at last……"
Zheng Xiu punched the monk on the island.
The island is cracked, and the monk lies in the pit.
Zheng Xiu landed on the edge of the pit and breathed a long sigh of relief. He felt relaxed this time.
"The 'prisoner' broke the rules and escaped from the cage."
"This is the 'only way'."
"I'm 'Correction'."
"I was born to 'fix something.'"
"It's that simple."
Zheng Xiu nodded towards the dumbfounded Annie.
"Master?" Annie asked, squinting her eyes.
"I don't know, I feel it's far off." Zheng Xiu thought for a while and replied.
At this time, the monk, who had been beaten all over, felt as if he had received a hearty health care meal. He suddenly jumped up, covered his face and screamed.
He looked at Zheng Xiu. When he opened his eyes, he was as confused as a newborn baby, and then gradually became clear. He smiled at Zheng Xiu and said, "Brother."
"Won!"
"Won!"
Everyone gathered around him happily.
Boom.
At this moment, only a few acres of deserted islands remained in the vast desert. With a burst of shaking, it cracked open again, and cracks separated everyone. Zheng Haoran gasped, sweating profusely and fell to the ground due to the earthquake. On the ground, others were also staggering.
The cold white-haired little girl said three words without expression: "It's going to collapse."
Anne poured cold water on it at the right time: "In terms of setting, there is no 'exit' here. Originally, I hid the 'key' in the 'Emperor', and only by regaining control of the world can I create a 'new exit'." "
Anne wilted again and sat down listlessly on the ground, letting the earthquake knock her up and down. Anne shook her head and sighed: "This is the result of a fight to the death. If I can't get the key, I can't let outsiders take it away."
"I'm sorry." Anne apologized when she faced Zheng Xiu for the first time: "My dignity will never allow this to happen. I would rather go back than tarnish the name of 'Elegance'."
"Elegance that never goes out of style."
"Annie, never say never."
"I am the Lord of Grace."
"This time, I'm going to hurt you, stupid container."
"Let's die together."
Anne's words were like the final word, announcing the outcome for everyone.
Everyone who was swaying around looked sad when they heard this. Jun Buxiao immediately put on a mask that looked like mourning and responded to the situation.
Zheng Xiu looked thoughtful and asked Annie: "Do you still remember the riddle I told you?"
Annie was stunned.
"Every sentence has meaning."
“There’s no nonsense in that puzzle.”
"Not long ago it was 'The Only Way'."
"Then what happens next..."
Zheng Xiu's eyes quickly searched the dark and turbulent ocean and the last isolated island.
Finally, Zheng Xiu's eyes fell on the "encrypted" shell that was still open like a celestial body in mid-air and was slapped open by Annie's paw.
Zheng Xiu murmured: "'Escape from the cage'..."
He flew towards the "encrypted shell" and said: "There is another sentence...'the only way'!"
