Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 670: Misty mountains and rivers

Views:

This was an extremely wide river, and the other side could not be seen at a glance. The woman was suspended in the purple air in the center, and it was not clear to see her. Her face was indeed somewhat similar to Yangyang's.

The young couple looked at each other, scratching their heads.

Anyway, this is tracing cause and effect, similar to watching a movie. The other party doesn't know they exist, so the two of them simply walk forward and get a closer look.

The woman was floating in the river, sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, as if she was practicing... She really looked like Yangyang. The difference was the vast aura on her body, which was probably enough to beat Yangyang of several divisions.

It can't be reincarnation...

This kind of tracing would not have any unnecessary plot, and soon a stream of light passed by.

But it was an old acquaintance... Ancient Azure Dragon. Zhao Changhe had seen his appearance before at the bottom of Jianhu Lake. Later, he lay directly in the coffin of Beimang and was confirmed dead. However, his presence in the ancient affairs was particularly high, after all, he was the emperor of man.

Qinglong came closer and frowned, "Piaomiao, you seem quite at ease?"

The woman called Piaomiao opened her eyes and asked, "What's bothering you?"

"Can't you really sense that the world is about to change?"

"You are the emperor of mankind, and it is your job to protect the country."

"… You are the spirit of the mountains and rivers. The collapse of heaven and earth is equivalent to your death. How can it be my business?"

"If it's not your business, why are you in such a hurry?"

Qinglong: “…”

Piao Miao said: "Why not tell me directly, you came to me, what do you want me to do?"

"I want to move Beimang and make it a secret place of its own, with the mountains, rivers and dragon veins returning to it. Even if the world collapses and all living things are lost, as long as Beimang is still there, I will still be resurrected, and you will also wake up with me. I need your help in this matter."

"You..." Piaomiao paused and said slowly: "When you were thinking about this, did you ever think that Shuanghua was waiting for you in Jianhu Lake?"

Qinglong said: "I will take her over myself."

"No, you don't want to take her with you at all, because the way you are planning will shake the energy of heaven and earth, and you must be doing it without the knowledge of the Night Emperor. Shuanghua is the Night Emperor's personal guard, you won't let her know."

Qinglong said: "When I am done, the Night Emperor can't do anything about it."

Piao Miao did not argue with him about this, and instead asked: "Then, Your Majesty, have you ever wanted to bring the people under your rule?"

Qinglong asked, "How many people can you bring in that small space?"

Piao Miao sighed slightly: "People say that I am the spirit of mountains and rivers. They may have taken the words literally and thought that I am the gathering of mountains and rivers. But mountains, rivers, and the country are also the way of mankind. I am not a mountain god or a river god. I am the spirit of the human spirit. Others don't know, so how come Your Majesty doesn't know?"

Qinglong said: "I only know that no one wants to die, and you are the same. If you cooperate with me, everyone will have a chance of survival. What's the point of arguing about these things?"

"For now, Your Majesty is the Lord of Mountains and Rivers, and I can help Your Majesty. But let me say this in advance, Your Majesty may not get what you want, and not only will you not be able to monopolize the meridians, but you may even lose them. Then you will not be able to be resurrected, and your grave will be dug up. The person who did this, if not a member of the Frost Flower inheritance, is a follower of the Night Emperor. I suggest that Your Majesty leave a simple inheritance outside, and others will at least treat your body better for the sake of the inheritance."

Qinglong: “…”

"We are all innate spirits born with the heaven and earth, but Your Majesty should know that with the destruction of the heaven and earth, the symbol of the destruction of the world will also be born. No matter whether it is the desolation of the sky and the earth, the fire of destruction, or the boiling sea of blood, it may manifest as a demon god. According to my observation, the Abyss of Hell has taken shape, and the flames of destruction have arisen from this." Piaomiao said: "I thought Your Majesty couldn't handle it, but now it seems that Your Majesty doesn't care about those things at all."

Qinglong said: "If the world is going to be destroyed, what is the point of these things?"

Piao Miao sighed and said nothing more, "Your Majesty, please go back. Just let me know when you need my help."

Qinglong left. Piaomiao stood there in a daze for a long time, shook his head, then undressed and went into the water to bathe.

Zhao Changhe: “?” Cui Yuanyang: “…”

The scene suddenly changed, as if the movie had been cut to a later time. He didn't know if someone was interfering with the scene. Zhao Changhe wanted to grab the blind man by the collar to stop him from fast forwarding, but the scene before him made him forget...

The entire era began to collapse, with doomsday scenes everywhere, rocks falling, the earth collapsing, and fire all over the sky. Zhao Changhe had seen this kind of scene before in Lie’s story. This was the last time of the collapse of the era.

Piao Miao was still standing on the river, looking at the chaos in the world, and suddenly she pointed with her slender hand.

The river where I was suddenly pouring out, roaring and rushing towards the distance. The endless river water washed the world and sank into the abyss.

As the river water poured down, it gradually turned into a sword-like shape and pierced straight into a certain space fiercely.

In the deep cave, flames rose and magma roared. Mist and water vapor spread, and purple air lingered, and then the magma stopped rising and the flames disappeared.

A big man came out of the cave to observe what was happening. A divine sword broke through the space and crashed in, directly breaking into his chest and nailing him to the wall of the cave.

This blow almost drained the river and made the woman's figure somewhat blurry.

She looked at her masterpiece and whispered to herself, "Relying on a human emperor to follow the way of humanity may change one day. I will transform myself into four swords with the meaning of mountains and rivers, and let the heroes of the world hold them. In the future, they can protect the mountains and rivers, and also restrain the new emperor. This sword is vast and upright, and it can eliminate all villains and evil spirits. It can be called Qinghe."

The slain man had an expression of disbelief on his face. He lowered his head to look at the divine sword that pierced his chest, shook his head and said, "What's the point of you killing me? I am just the embodiment of the flame of annihilation. If you destroy me, this world will still be destroyed."

Across different realms, the voice still reached Piaomiao's ears, and she responded in a low voice: "I want to help someone, and together we can protect the human world."

"You won't succeed... The death of Tiandao shouldn't have led to the destruction of the world. The reason it's like this is that Tiandao felt that the world should be destroyed before he died. You'll soon realize how ridiculous what you're protecting is."

Piaomiao said calmly: "Maybe."

As if confirming Yanmie's words, not long after the conversation ended and Piaomiao forged the four swords of mountains and rivers, a phantom of a demonic hand fell from the sky and slapped Piaomiao fiercely.

Piaomiao was unbelievable: "It's you..."

She had always looked calm, but at the moment of her death, she finally showed some resentment: "You can't devour my soul... I will have a trace of my true soul reincarnated in the human world. As long as the world does not die, sooner or later I will avenge this great hatred, even if by that time... I will no longer be myself."

The movie is over.

Zhao Changhe frowned.

Cui Yuanyang was stunned.

I don’t know if I was disturbed or not, and I didn’t know who the other person was at all. I couldn’t recognize where the hand came from. It only proved that Piaomiao recognized this person and couldn’t believe that the other person would kill him.

There has always been speculation about whether I am the "reincarnation of the Night Emperor". It is known that there is a concept of reincarnation in this world, but no one has seen an example. Now the first example seems to have appeared next to me. Yangyang is very likely to be the reincarnation of Piaomiao, that is, the reincarnation of the spirit of the human world.

Whether it is the similarity in appearance or the connection to Qinghe, it can be basically confirmed. The reason why they don't look exactly the same is because Yangyang was born from her mother's womb after all, she inherited most of her parents' genes, so naturally it is impossible for them to be exactly the same.

From what Piaomiao said before his death, we can roughly guess that there should be no previous life awakening memory invasion. Even if it is possible, it is just memory awakening and revival, and he will not become a different person. The problem is that this cause and effect is extraordinary. Even if Yangyang just eats and waits for death and does not do this, he will most likely have to passively respond to this cause and effect in the future.

Not to mention anything else, just this very similar face, what would happen if the other person were alive and saw it

You have inherited the Qinghe sword intent, can you dodge it

In addition, from the assassination of Piaomiao and Piaomiao's last words, it feels like the destruction of the past seems to hide a huge conspiracy. It's not simply because Tiandao died that the era collapsed... and the key to uncovering this line inexplicably fell to Yangyang

The two people's consciousness left Qinghe like a tide. Cui Yuanyang stared at Zhao Changhe blankly, his eyes turning into circles: "I, I just came here to observe the sword intent, why is it like this?"
