Beyond the Divine States

Chapter 109: The underworld is the boundary

Views:

The huge divine pillar penetrates the sky and the earth, which is spectacular, and it is so beautiful when it collapses, just like in the glass full of lights and shadows, countless intertwined lines of light and dark suddenly split and expanded, so those things that were originally close to perfection The picture also collapsed.

With one move, the whole body was moved. In almost an instant, the divine pillar slowly tipped over and crashed into the second towering pillar.

The impact of the divine pillar did not make any sound, but the collapse of the picture occupied the entire night like an explosion.

For the first moment, Mrs. Bai thought she had seen it wrong. It was not until the sacred pillar tilted to a certain angle that she suddenly woke up. Her heart that was originally endowed with divinity suddenly shook, and she shouted: "No!"

The entire Fengdu Kingdom was trembling with her exclamations.

Everything that had been accumulated over several years of hard work turned into auroras flowing far away across the sky in just a few moments.

And the culprit of all this is the damned Ning Changjiu, and his pupils that glow for no apparent reason.

Before Mrs. Bai was about to go crazy, Zhao Xiang'er had already seized this momentary opportunity and raised her breath fiercely. What moved with her mind was Jiu Yu who was firmly fixed with bone nails.

The sacred pillar collapsed, the authority was shattered, and Madam Bai's status fell crazily. Naturally, the bone nails could not trap Jiu Yu. When Madam Bai was angry and wanted to cut Zhao Xiang'er's neck directly, Jiu Yu had broken free from the restraints and soared into the air. He stood up and turned into a sword in the air, passing through the space between Madam Bai and Zhao Xianger.

In an instant, Mrs. Bai's hand bones were broken at the wrist.

Zhao Xiang'er's figure fell, and Jiu Yu turned into a flying bird and flew below to catch her falling figure.

Madam Bai looked at her broken wrist. Although she could immediately give birth to an identical one from the white bones, the moment her hand bones broke, her heart seemed to fall into an endless abyss.

She trembled all over and looked at the boy who still had his eyes open. Those eyes were so abominable that she wanted to dig them out and eat them alive immediately.

But an innate fear also flashed through her heart.

This fear was quickly swallowed up by hatred. She flicked her wrist and gave birth to white fingers again. Although her status was constantly declining at this moment, even if everything was in vain, with her original long life His cultivation level is still more than enough to kill Ning Jiujiu!

At this moment, Ning Jiujiu himself didn't quite know what happened. He was just awakened by an instinctive force in his body, and then subconsciously opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the divine pillar.

Then his eyes turned golden, and the divine pillar began to collapse under his gaze.

He kept staring at those scenes, and he didn't react until Zhao Xianger escaped from the clutches and Madam Bai pounced with an astonishing killing power.

Madam Bai arrived very quickly, but Ning Jiujiu was seriously injured. Before the warning signs in his heart could sound, Madam Bai's sharp claws were already in front of him.

Ning Changjiu did not have the slightest fear in his heart. At a certain moment, a flash of sword light flashed deep in his consciousness. As soon as the spiritual platform was illuminated, his hand holding the sword moved instinctively. He raised the sword and pointed it at Mrs. Bai's place. The direction stabbed past.

The sword was extremely fast and precise, hitting the tip of Madam Bai's middle finger just in time.

That was the point with the strongest source of danger. Ning Jiujiu "saw" it and then stabbed it.

Then the sword in his hand was held by Madam Bai with her backhand, and she twisted it violently. The toughness of the sword reached its limit in an instant. The twist-like sword body quickly broke, and Madam Bai's other claw pointed directly towards His head pounded.

brush!

Something flashed before my eyes.

Madam Bai snorted miserably, and blood spurted out of her eyes.

A fox's paw dug into her eye.

Not far away, Ning Xiaoling was also awakened by the huge shaking sound, and finally opened her eyes. After witnessing the blow from the snow fox, her mind collapsed, her eyes closed, and she passed out again.

The same fox, the same sneak attack. Madam Bai didn't take it seriously the first time, but now she was so furious that she was almost going crazy. The short-term blindness created a gap, and the nine feathers that had been flying down from the sky arrived in an instant. , Zhao Xiang'er held an umbrella sword and swiped at her neck.

There is still instinctive defense in Madam Bai's madness. Although her bone armor is constantly fading, it still has excellent hardness.

She dodged the sword very quickly, and her blind pupil injury healed quickly. In a blink of an eye, Zhao Xianger was holding an umbrella sword in one hand and Jiu Yu in the other. Her body was filled with murderous rage, and her two swords were thundering. And arrived.

Madam Bai's realm was much higher than that of Zhao Xianger at the moment, but her attack was too fierce and fierce. Madam Bai's already somewhat crazy thinking was suppressed by the round of sword energy and she couldn't think. She could only rely on intuition to resist, and then she The white bone scales on both arms were overturned and chopped into pieces, and her tailbone was broken. She was going crazy, and Zhao Xianger was also going crazy. Every stroke of the sword was filled with a lot of power, like a dead cry. .

If Madam Bai hadn't repaired her body quickly with bones all over the floor, she would have been chopped into pieces at this moment.

And Zhao Xiang'er's all-out effort came to an end. She forced Mrs. Bai all the way to the edge of the underworld. Finally, the umbrella sword and the nine feathers crossed each other, like a Chinese character "乂".

That is one of the strokes of the character Zhao, and it is also her most striking and sharp sword.

Madam Bai mobilized her spiritual power to resist with both arms, but her arms and breastplate were still chopped into pieces. Two extremely deep cracks were instantly revealed. During the impact of the sword energy, Madam Bai was struck by the word "乂". He held on tightly and pushed directly to the other side, smashing a large piece of house.

Zhao Xiang'er stood with two swords in hand. She swayed, propped up by her umbrella sword, knelt down on one knee, and touched her burning cheeks. The anger flowing in her heart still could not be calmed down.

She didn't chase Mrs. Bai, not because she didn't want to kill them all, but because she was also exhausted.

Since she killed three long-lived bone demons in a row before and then fought with Madam Bai, her body was severely injured. The previous violent counterattack, which was almost like a flashback, was the last limit of her strength.

She put away Jiuyu, supported her body with the sword in one hand, grabbed the torn clothes on her chest with the other, and turned to look at Ning Changjiu.

On the other side, Madam Bai slowly crawled out of the ruins. She was covered in injuries and looked even worse than Zhao Xianger. The backlash of Ming Lord's power was extremely serious, directly damaging her roots. Not only did she finally recover, His realm was almost in vain, and he almost lost the power to control this Fengdu.

She also looked at Ning Changjiu, with confusion and anger on her face: "You... what exactly did you do?"

Ning Jiujiu stood up slowly. The gold in his eyes had disappeared. After standing up unsteadily, he walked to Ning Xiaoling's side, helped her up, and entered the remaining spiritual energy in the sea of qi.

Those few sword strikes had almost exhausted all the spiritual power he had refined in Tianku Peak.

He exhaled slowly, adjusting the breath in his body, and did not answer Madam Bai's question.

The last sacred pillar hit the Naihe Bridge, suddenly breaking the entire long bridge, and then smashed into the underworld, causing huge waves and disappearing.

Madam Bai looked at the missing divine pillar, despairing of all thoughts. She pulled herself out of the huge sense of loss, and the scene just now was replayed in her mind like a nightmare.

Golden pupils, chaotic pictures, disordered mythological logic, and collapsed divine pillars.

"I see."

After a long time, Mrs. Bai slowly spoke.

She finally understood: "It turns out that the history depicted in the first bronze painting was wrong."

The historical facts are wrong, and the logic of the myth is naturally distorted. Therefore, the sacred pillar looks spectacular, but in fact it contains huge loopholes.

But that loophole will not collapse on its own for no reason.

Vulnerabilities need to be “seen through.”

As long as a lie that no one can see through is complete enough and the logic is self-consistent, it will be infinitely close to the truth.

But the difference this time was that Ning Jiujiu opened his eyes and took a serious look at it.

Then the loophole could no longer deceive himself, and huge chaos began.

But how could Ning Jiujiu see through the loopholes in the bronze painting

Of these five bronze paintings, the next four are all real facts that she experienced personally. Only the first one is a possibility that she drew after countless speculations.

She is a bone demon who emerged from a broken corpse in an abyss. She once measured the aging of her own bones and deduced the death time of the divine bones in the abyss.

About four hundred to five hundred years ago.

Then she read through countless historical materials and checked all the historical facts and legends she could find about four hundred to five hundred years ago, and finally determined that the only thing that could kill a god of that level was the catastrophe five hundred years ago. .

Mythological logic does not need to be truly rigorous, but it must ensure that the foundation is correct.

But now in Ning Jiujiu's eyes, the logic of the myth collapsed. The occurrence of all this revealed two answers. One is that the foundation of the bronze painting was wrong! That god did not die in the catastrophe five hundred years ago.

The second is that, in a sense, the young man in white is a "witness". He has either seen the real record of the death of that god in someone or a certain book, or he has directly witnessed what happened. Everything, otherwise the logic of mythology would not be able to determine that he has been seen through.

But how old is this boy? How is it possible to know the top-secret past events from four to five hundred years ago

Mrs. Bai, who had figured everything out yet couldn't understand everything, was overwhelmed by huge surprise and sadness.

She looked at the three people on the other side of the underworld and said nothing, because with her current physical condition, she had no confidence in killing them.

Ning Jiujiu and the other three were also at the end of their strength.

The most important thing is that at this moment, the perfect red moon has risen to the center of Linhe City, illuminating the yellow spring in crimson color.

The divine pillar collapsed, and the possibility of this Fengdu becoming a divine kingdom no longer existed. However, the red moon has been completed, and this city has still become the real capital of the netherworld. However, now the authority of this capital of the netherworld has been scattered. It's not in anyone's control.

Mrs. Bai and Ning looked at the yellow spring boiling under the red moon and remained silent for a long time.

Then Madam Bai turned around and left, walking into that half of the dead city.

Ning Jiujiu sighed: "Let's go too."

Zhao Xiang'er gritted her teeth and said displeased: "Why?"

Although she asked this question, she actually knew very well in her heart that neither they nor Mrs. Bai were sure of killing each other, and the red moon was in the head, the time of the day had come, and Feng had truly taken shape. Their current state was not even enough to cross this road. The underworld has become a symbol of death.

So at this moment, they can only recover from their injuries, wait for their strength to return to its peak, and then cross the underworld to fight to the death.

That moment may be before dawn, or it may be much later.

Zhao Xiang'er lowered her head and didn't say anything else. She grabbed the clothes on her chest, released the hand holding the sword, and quietly took down a few strands of black hair to cover her left dimple.

Then she stood up again holding the sword, but before she could take two steps, her knees gave out and she was half-kneeling on the ground. She had no choice but to use the sword to support her.

Her petite body was trembling slightly, and the joints holding the sword hilt were turning white, but she insisted not to say a word.

Ning Jiujiu had already walked in front of her, half-crouched down, and he gently held her shoulders. His tired and weak words were filled with incomparable calmness and determination: "I will carry you."
