The stars of the sky sprinkled from the sky, and the gorgeous embroidery on Ye Yi's black cloak shone brightly in the dark, like fire like stars, like all the gorgeous and beautiful things bloomed on his clothes.
Lou Shidao retreated, looking at the battlefield in the dark night from a distance.
Xinting had wine in his throat, and a murderous knife in the snow.
In his heart, he sighed softly at the demeanor of suddenly getting out of the sheath in the dark night. He is a mortal, what mortals pursue is longevity and soaring clouds, he is full of hatred for immortal cultivators, but even so, even as an enemy, at this moment, he will still be amazed and shocked by everything in front of him.
Just like in ancient times, when people saw the Golden Crow swaying past the earth, they knew that they would be burned to ashes by the flame of the Golden Crow, but when the red flames rose, they still couldn't help being moved by the beauty of the bird of the sun.
Huayi walks at night and draws his sword in the snow.
What he witnessed was Ye Yi who was getting old, but when he saw Ye Yi shining like snow in the brilliance of the stars, and the world was clean, he couldn't help but make people think about what kind of Ye Yi was in the past. kind of style.
Xue Lidao, a flower in the dark.
The light of the sword filled the heaven and the earth one after another, like a long river of stars, like a vast ocean pouring down, like a raging fire extinguished, under the plaque of the Nine Profound Branches, the elders in black cloaks swirled and danced. Lou Shidao looked at him, as if he saw that young man in his prime a long time ago, who came singing and left with his sleeves up.
That kind of peerless demeanor allows latecomers to glimpse a little bit through the gap of time.
What a pity.
Lou Shidao thought about it, turned his head slightly, and glanced in the direction outside the city of Yanmen County.
……………………………………
Outside Yanmen County, Lingxing Temple.
The cold starlight fell in front of this small place, Lingxing Temple. At this time, at some point in front of the shrine, a figure stood. It was a figure in a scarlet cloak.
A very strange thing, around this figure, the light of the stars in the sky gathered and solidified on his scarlet cloak as if they were distorted after falling, just like the stars of the sky became the stars on his cloak. decorate. And around him, the space presents a vague, uncomfortable distortion.
He stood there, and the space fell into a terrible silence.
Like, even the world is in awe of him.
The man in the scarlet cloak looked at the entire Lingxing Temple slightly, but he didn't seem to make any moves. A whole piece of ancient writing emerged on the white and ashesed wall of the Lingxing Temple, and it melted on the wall like gold. Flow slowly. Afterwards, the entire space here shook slightly in the dark.
The vibration seemed to come from underground.
Immediately, the entire Lingxing Temple was silently reduced to ashes, and disappeared together with the words that seemed to be molded into the wall itself, as if there had never been a Lingxing Temple here.
On the ground, there is an additional entrance to the passage.
If Junwan Baili was half-crazy and they were here, they would definitely be surprised, because when they escaped, the entire passage had obviously collapsed. However, this passage reappeared at this time.
The person in the scarlet cloak walked into the reappeared dark passage as if taking a leisurely stroll.
On the left and right sides of the long natural stone path, there are lengthy "Taiyilu" engraved. The scarlet cloak reached out and gently brushed the words carved on the wall. When his unreal pale fingertips brushed over it, a whole large stretch of scriptures lit up in an instant.
The entire long stone path was illuminated in an instant, bright and brilliant.
The power of those scriptures erupting in an instant is enough to kill a powerful elder like Ye Yi, but the man in the scarlet cloak just stood and watched, as if it was not a fierce formation with murderous intent, but Greeting the light of his coming, the world is lit by his will.
"Somewhat familiar, like the power of Taiyi."
He withdrew his hand, and under the light of the inspired "Taiyilu", he walked unhurriedly in the splendor of the ground.
His steps carried an indescribable majesty. He walked in this underground passage, but he was like a god, like a king walking in his kingdom. In other words, wherever he went, everything was his territory.
"I didn't expect... After a long sleep, Taiyi's power was actually used in this kind of place. Taiyi, you are the most arrogant person among us. If you wake up and see these low-level powers, you will definitely feel Be offended."
He said, with a hint of ridicule and a hint of lightness in his tone.
But soon, his tone became low again.
"I'm confused again. It's strange. We made an appointment to sleep together, wake up together, and regain our world together, but why were you all gone when I woke up?"
He sighed faintly, and the light of the entire passage dimmed instantly.
His voice didn't seem to have any strong emotions, just a simple sigh, but the vibration of the surrounding space revealed some of his real emotions, and the suppressed and hidden anger made the space dignified in an instant.
As he walked, the entire passage slowly collapsed behind him.
——This channel has collapsed in the first place, but because of his will, the time here has been reversed.
At the end of the passage, the thick black iron gate automatically slid open to both sides in front of the person in the scarlet cloak. After the heavy iron door was opened, damp and cold air rushed in, and the wind howled.
He went in.
It's a little different from when Ye Qiusheng and the others came here.
In the vertically torn opening of the leyline, the deep black rock formations remain, and the black water flows violently with the momentum of destroying everything. Thousands of water splashes shatter and collide, and the sound of the water rumbles like a huge music. The isolated island with the bronze gargoyle is still locked by iron chains and sinks in the torrential black water.
However, there is a phantom of a sword floating above the black water, that sword is like a long anchor nailing the heavens, nailing the bronze earth to the water.
The scarlet robe was rolled up, and the mysterious man stood on the edge of the cliff, looking down at the sword in the black water.
But before his arrival, the sword that had been floating silently vibrated at this time, and the gust of wind swept through this huge underground space instantly, and there were also countless bones colliding with each other from the top of the head, a creepy sound.
"It's ridiculous."
On the scarlet robe worn by the mysterious man, the light of the stars in the sky fluctuated like flowing water.
The sound of swords, the sound of wind, the sound of water, the sound of thousands of bones colliding above the head... All these sounds were suppressed by the mysterious man's low chuckle. When the power sounded, everything in the space became his foil.
"Steal our power and use it against us, these... shameless thieves!"
His voice was steady, and suddenly rose when he reached the last few words.
The fury in the voice could no longer be suppressed and poured out. At that moment, the whole space became violent. The black water surged and rolled up huge waves hundreds of feet high, and all the iron cables crossing the air collided. When he got up, the hard rocks on all sides trembled, and large boulders rolled down rustlingly, and the bones on the top of his head no longer collided.
Whether it is time or space, they are all trembling at this moment.
All and all tremble with the wrath of their king and their master.
"Noisy."
The mysterious man said, his voice was indifferent.
The sound of the wind stopped in an instant, the iron chains traversed the air quietly, the black river stopped flowing, the rocks stopped shaking, and everything returned to the deathly silence.
This is true majesty.
The emperor ordered the river to flow westward, but the river did not dare to flow eastward.
Even if he is the one who is angry, it is he who reprimands and makes noise, it is he who repeats and is moody. His will is the only law between this space. The black water is like a giant black dragon, but the dragon crawls like an ant in front of the person in the scarlet robe.
"too dark."
There was no wind, and there was no sound. After everything was as dead as he wanted, he spoke softly again.
After the words fell, the light of the stars ignored the barriers of rocks and strata, followed his will and fell from the sky, penetrating everything, illuminating this dead space. The sea of stars in the sky is projected on this dark area, lighting up this dark area like a dream.
Everything is clear in the light.
Overhead hangs the sleeping mist of prey.
This fleshless, bone-like creature hangs upside down, its long neck drooping like ancient giant snakes, and its huge, comical skull with hollow eyes. They are the masters in the cloud and mist, but when the man in the scarlet cloak arrives, they hang on the top and become the decoration of this space.
That's all.
Those lizards guarding the bronze circle no longer lie on the iron chains. They crawl motionless in the black water, surrendering to the supreme being who came here.
The person in the scarlet robe looked around the entire space, and he took a step.
Ignored the void, ignored the distance.
After taking a step forward, he came to the sword suspended above the isolated island.
The long sword neighed crisply—for the joyful reunion after tens of thousands of years.
"Long time no see, my old man."
He said affectionately, stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the sword, and pressed his cheek to the cold sword. The luster flowing on the long sword seemed to be responding to his words.
Then, he grasped the sharp hilt of the sword.
"Such a long time has passed, and you have been soaked by time just like us. Your sharpness to cut off the sky has been worn away by those shameless thieves. Are you also angry?" His tone was strange, like It's sighing, and it seems to be reprimanding, "But it doesn't matter, I will return, and you will regain that radiant brilliance."
His voice murmured, and the air vibrated slightly, echoing his words.
He clenched the sharp blade tightly, the cold edge cut his hand, and blood flowed from the cut place, seeping into the blade.
The blood flowing from his wound was like hot magma, hot and glowing with red eyes, the billowing blood penetrated into the sword body, and the long sword became brighter inch by inch, just like what he said, it was washed away. The dust accumulated in the long time has regained the glory of the year.
When the last point of the sword tip returned to the snow-like brilliance, the entire space was illuminated by the pale sword light. After it woke up, the brilliance it gained made mortals dare not look directly at it.
"Once again we will divide the punishment for those sinners, as we have done before."
The voice of the man in the scarlet cloak was soft, but cruelty and violence emerged sharply from the soft words, full of bloody breath.
The wrath of the emperor is bloody.
He let go of the hilt of the sword, and the long sword was suspended in the air. The emperor's sword named "jue" was as clear as a play, and the sword body was a strange pale color, cold and majestic.
The mysterious man opened his hands and made a gesture of hugging. The Emperor Sword slowly melted into his body. After the Emperor Sword melted into his body, the figure of the mysterious man showed an abnormal blur Distortion—what came here was just a phantom that seemed to be real.
"Soon, we'll all be back."
He opened his hands and laughed.
The air vibrated, and thousands of chains collided, making a sound like an ancient bell. The ghost bones in the bronze earth below collided and played the ancient sheng music, as if they were rejoicing together after a long time for this ancient existence. , will eventually return to the world!
Amidst the grand and majestic vocal music, the bronze earth that had lost the suppression of the emperor's sword slowly shook.
"Descendants with the blood of my old friend, although you have betrayed us, today I will forgive all your sins!"
The mysterious man stood in the void, lowered his head slightly, looked down at the bronze earth with the isolated island as a prison, and spoke majestically.
He sent down judgment.
Accompanied by his voice, the countless chains inscribed with "Taiyilu" across the air lit up one after another, and became red and hot one after another. They melted one after another in the air, and the melted molten iron flowed from It fell in the air like a fiery red iron rain.
As the chains melted, the isolated island fixed by the chains began to rotate slowly, large chunks of boulders fell off the isolated island, and the huge bronze earth gradually turned red, just like here The space has become a huge furnace, and all the old shackles are being melted in this furnace.
"I give you strength, give you a new life, give you everything you have lost, and you will return to us to fight for the sins of the past!"
The tone of the mysterious man raised slightly. Standing in the void, he seemed to be sitting on a throne suspended in the sky, holding the authority of the heavens, and issued a gift from the supreme ruler.
pardon!
bestow!
The black water surged up, and the bronze earth, which was tough and unbreakable by time in the era, turned into thousands of copper water in his voice, and the hot bronze water flowed into the black water along the collapsed island, crawling into the black water Those chinchillas burned to ashes.
However, in the next moment, a flame hotter than the bronze water burst into flames.
Pale flames shot up from the molten bronze, and the entire space was filled with the light and shadow of the flames. In the fire, a creature that could only be born in the primordial world rose up. Only the phoenix is coming back to life!
On the pale bones, flesh and blood were covered again, followed by extremely gorgeous and brilliant wings, and the crisp hissing resounded throughout the huge underground space, and the phoenix, which had disappeared from the land of the Twelve Dynasties for a long time, reappeared in this world.
"You will return to us to fight for the sins of the past."
Pale flames filled the entire space, but separated around the man in the scarlet robe, he looked down at the phoenix resurrected from the fire, his voice was high and indifferent.
After the flame is gorgeous, it gathers and disappears.
The figure of the phoenix also disappeared. It turned into the figure of a tall woman. The woman was wearing a silver robe, her snow-white hair was winding down, her facial features were extremely profound, and her eyes were a very light silver color that seemed very indifferent. . The woman stood on the ruins of the isolated island above the black water, and looked up at the shadow in the scarlet robe in midair.
When she spoke, her voice was not crisp but had an indescribably hoarse voice.
"I thought you were going to kill me."
she says.
— After all, she was once a traitor.
Abandoned the father who gave her strength, betrayed the glory to which she belonged, walked down the black royal city of Zang Mu floating in the sky, gave herself another surname, and was a traitor on the land ruled by the ancient emperor.
"I tried to kill you once."
The man in the scarlet cloak said calmly, without denying his killing intent.
"But you are the only person in this world whose blood flows."
There was a sadness and loneliness in his voice.
The woman looked up at him, looked at the bronze throne that once occupied the royal city, stared at the existence of the earth indifferently, and felt the real loneliness and sadness in him. A long time passed, and the royal cities of the ancient emperors crashed from the sky, the once magnificent palaces became ruins, and the former majesty became a thing of the past.
He slept for a long time, and when he woke up, everything changed. Did the old man no longer exist
No longer side by side.
The woman didn't understand how deep the relationship existed between the three emperors back then, but in the tens of thousands of years, they were the only ones who could stand side by side. .
Would an existence like a god be sad
She thought, and lowered her head under the gaze of the other party: "I would like to return, and I would like to atone for the sins of the past."
The other party is an existence of that level, releasing her is already a kind of gift, a kind of gift to see that it is flowing with the blood of Baidi. But the emperor cannot be disobeyed. If she refuses, even if she is an old friend, she can only be killed.
not to mention…
She is a descendant of Baidi, she betrayed her own blood, betrayed the glory of the emperor, and became a member of the eighteenth Gu clan.
Then, they were forever suppressed in the dark underground.
How much he once loved, now how much he hates, sorrow and hatred alternately breed in the long sealing darkness, like a poisonous snake biting the soul.
