Zhao Changhe has explored many secret places, but this time is particularly different.
Because it did not enter a plane fragment like before, but it is still in this plane, but has moved to a very distant place.
This place is an island with mountains, water and trees... or it can only be called a peninsula. It is surrounded by the sea on three sides and the sky on the easternmost side.
Going to the end of the east, there is no road ahead and you can’t go out anymore.
Xia Chichi was touching the invisible barrier in front of him, which was like touching the sky. The stars were twinkling in front of him and seemed to be within reach, but they could not be touched at all because of the invisible wall.
This is the end of the world, the extreme east, the boundary between sea and sky.
The so-called end of the world.
If ordinary people sailed all the way east, they would never reach the destination. Not only would the navigation technology and food supplies be inadequate, but even if these problems were solved one day, they would still never be able to reach the destination.
Distorted light is the precursor of space distortion. Just as ordinary people can never sail to the "island" where the statue was located, they will only go further and further away. It is the same here. It is impossible to reach here in a normal way. The only way is to be teleported by the statue.
This should be a characteristic that has existed in the world since the beginning of the last era... I had previously wondered why this voyage was related to the Azure Dragon, but now it is very clear, because one of the concepts of the Four Symbols is the four poles of the sky and the four directions of the earth. Here is the eastern pole, the essential concept of the Azure Dragon.
This is not the inheritance of the ancient Azure Dragon, but the ancient Azure Dragon himself achieved enlightenment here, and all the laws related to the Azure Dragon are here.
Therefore, the level of the fight was ridiculously high. This time it could almost be called a battle of the gods. The Heavenly Ranking was only qualified to set up an ambush here, but in the end, they were the ones who got here...
The core is still the practice that Xia Chichi was involved in. She first found where the key should be inserted, and then inferred that the key was the Azure Dragon Seal through the traces of that position. The Sea King didn't know, so what's the use of inserting the Azure Dragon Seal into the seemingly square hole on the top of the statue's head...
So it’s not that Sanniang becomes the protagonist, in the end this is still Xia Chichi’s home court.
She was instinctively attracted by the principles of cultivation and immediately turned her attention to the East. On the other side, Zhao Changhe, Sanniang and Hai Pinglan's eyes first fell on the golden book floating not far away.
Heavenly Book.
It is very likely that this island was formed because the energy of the Heavenly Book has been accumulated over the years. Otherwise, there would only be a sea in the world of sea and sky, and there would be no need for an island.
Hai Pinglan and her daughter may not know what is written in the heavenly book, and have no way of judging what this page is. However, Zhao Changhe is very clear that this page is probably related to light and darkness or space. If you want to completely transcend the level of martial arts and achieve metaphysics, you have to look at the changes brought about by this page.
Sanniang silently moved her body to block Hai Pinglan's gaze from the heavenly book.
Hai Pinglan's gaze fell on her, and the father and daughter looked at each other in silence.
"You want this?" Hai Pinglan asked.
Sanniang did not answer, her expression was serious.
Needless to say, this kind of thing is the main culprit that can cause internal strife within the team, and Hai Pinglan is obviously the troublemaker who is most likely to cause problems.
Hai Pinglan just looked at her calmly and suddenly smiled.
Sanniang asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Hai Pinglan smiled and said, "You are so calm and majestic, as still as a mountain... Even though I have heard countless rumors about Xuanwu before, it is always hard to believe without seeing it in person. Now that I have seen it... you have really grown up."
Sanniang was too lazy to pay attention to this and frowned slightly: "Your voice is not right..."
Zhao Changhe sighed and said, "My uncle is running out of energy."
Sanniang was suddenly shocked.
Hai Pinglan didn't care, but sat down very casually, saying casually: "I am old, so I don't plan to live after such a high-intensity battle... The final result I want is to blow up its body and make its decades of accumulation and planning come to nothing, that's enough."
Sanniang bit her lower lip, and the conversation between Hai Pinglan and the Sea Emperor flashed through her mind. Thinking back now, it was indeed clear that Hai Pinglan had never thought of killing the Sea Emperor.
That can't be done.
His plan from the very beginning was to die together.
Seeing that Sanniang didn't say anything, Hai Pinglan looked at Zhao Changhe, his expression became a little strange, his eyes moved around the two of them for several times, and he couldn't help but look at Xia Chichi over there. In the end, he had a lot to say, but he didn't know whether he should say it.
Judging from all the information, my daughter is a mistress
You, the fucking Xuanwu Reverend, are this little girl’s uncle, and you go be her mistress!
The old man choked on his breath and felt that his already precarious life was shortened even more.
But Sanniang pursed her lips for a long time, and finally spoke in a low voice: "You... have the rejuvenation secret, and you have medical skills... can you cure him?"
Hai Pinglan was stunned, and his turbid eyes lit up slightly.
Zhao Changhe whispered, "It's impossible. I guess uncle's breakthrough to the Imperial Realm was at the cost of his life span, so he is so old... That was at the cost of his body. Even if he can barely hang on this time, his life span is over, and he won't last more than a month..." Hai Pinglan laughed, "Why hang on?"
He looked at Sanniang and said softly, "You... still have this intention... very good."
Sanniang angrily said, "It's none of your business. If I saw an old beggar on the street, I would also want to help him!"
"Ha... OK, OK..." Hai Pinglan laughed and coughed: "I suddenly thought of something."
Sanniang said coldly: "What?"
Hai Pinglan said: "Once the Heavenly Book is taken away, the cover of the Chaotic Book by the sea will no longer exist, and the Chaotic List will change. I was thinking, how about you take the Heavenly Book, and then you kill me to get on the Heavenly List?"
Zhao Changhe's eyes widened.
Sanniang said angrily: "Are you sick?"
Hai Pinglan smiled and said, "If not, how can I get rid of your hatred?"
Sanniang sneered: "Why hate it?"
Hai Pinglan whispered, "I have told the Saint of your church... I suppressed you because of a misunderstanding. But the essence of this misunderstanding was that I was afraid that you would also be invaded by the Sea Emperor, and the other half was that I was afraid that you would take the opportunity to seize the throne. This other half may be more important, especially since you have gathered a large number of people. That means there are two suns in the sky, which I could not tolerate at that time. Letting Changkong hunt you down and promising him the crown prince were all my true intentions back then. There was no element of acting for the Sea Emperor."
Sanniang calmed down and said slowly: "It's not important."
"I think it's very important." Hai Pinglan's voice began to weaken, but he was still smiling: "It shows that I regarded you as an enemy in my heart at that time... The saint of your church was right to scold you. If you want a daughter, you can have another one... Maybe it would be better if you gave birth to a son."
Sanniang: “…”
Hai Pinglan smiled and said, "Of course, I had a quarrel with the Sea Emperor later, and I had no intention of having a son. Even if I did, I couldn't keep him. At this time, I contacted Hai Qianfan and explained the misunderstanding, but I didn't send anyone to find you. When you went out to sea and saw Hai Qianfan, I also ordered him not to explain these things to you... Firstly, because my murderous intentions could not be washed away, and secondly, it was to make sure that you and I were at odds, so that the Sea Emperor would not focus on you."
So from this point on, the father-daughter relationship still prevailed, and not explaining was mainly to protect Sanniang. According to the previous emperor's thinking, he should have cleared up the misunderstanding long ago and dragged the Four Elephants Sect into the conspiracy against the Sea Emperor, but he gave up, preferring Sanniang to be a venerable in the Central Plains and not get involved in the muddy water.
Zhao Changhe sighed, thinking that people are indeed complicated, and their ideas at different stages are different. If you label them, you will never be able to distinguish them clearly. Hai Pinglan is like this, and Xia Longyuan may be even more complicated.
Sanniang was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I said, it's not important. I'm lazy, and holding a grudge is a very tiring thing."
Hai Pinglan said: "I said this in the hope that you will remember the grudge. No matter how many faults I have, the original root cause was the invasion of your mother's soul by the Sea Emperor. Now it has not completely disappeared. I originally placed my hopes on Changkong... But I think, since you are here, it should be yours."
Sanniang said, "That's right. You don't need to tell me."
"That's enough." Hai Pinglan took off the ring in his hand and threw it to Zhao Changhe: "My little brother, you have made great contributions this time. I have no way to repay you. I will give you the things here."
As he said this, he looked at Sanniang meaningfully. Sanniang had been expressionless until now, but at this moment her face turned a little red, and she subconsciously glanced at Xia Chichi.
This smells like a dowry...
Xia Chichi was in a daze and didn't notice.
Hai Pinglan smiled and slowly closed his eyes: "I am in Shenzhou, occupying the south of the Yangtze River and dominating half of the country. I entered the East China Sea, traveled thousands of miles, and founded the country of Penglai. In the second half of my life, I played games with the gods, broke their beliefs, and destroyed their bodies. I have been galloping like this all my life, and it is not in vain for my next life."
"My only regret is that we are father and daughter, and maybe we won't even be able to see each other before we die... When you tell Wang Daoning that he hit your father... I will have no regrets in my life, and I can die now."
"I should go and accompany your mother... She has been waiting for me for many, many years... She has a bad temper and will definitely not reincarnate. She will definitely be stubborn on the road to the underworld, waiting to ask me if I feel bad if I kill her... Then she will chop at me with a sword and say Hai Pinglan, you fucking bastard..."
The sound gradually became lower and lower until it was inaudible.
Sanniang stared at his old face for a long time, then suddenly whispered, "Put away the Heavenly Book. I want to see what the Book of Troubled Times says."
Zhao Changhe silently took away the heavenly book.
A golden light flashed across the sky, and everyone, whether at sea or far away in China, looked up.
"At first, the Sea Emperor killed the Dragon King Hai Pinglan's wife in Penglai. Hai Pinglan endured for sixteen years, raising pirates to accumulate strength, luring Emperor Xia to devour the wolf, burning his life to break through the realm, destroying the temple to cut off the roots, and suddenly he rose up, the sea and the sky roared, life and death died together."
"The dragon body of the Sea Emperor exploded, and his remaining soul was dying. Hai Pinglan sat in front of his daughter, smiling."
"Once the sea is raging, the gods will be buried in the raging waves."
There are actually many more things to say later, about the changes caused by the inclusion of sea figures in the list, and the performance of Xuanwu Zhao Changhe and Xia Chichi in this battle.
But people were not in the mood to watch it for the moment. They all looked up at the simple description of the Dragon King Hai Pinglan who had disappeared for thirty years reappearing on the list. No one spoke for a long time.
