Fighter of the Destiny

Are you angry? Absolutely.

A girl who is so kind, peaceful, and like new rain in the sky, was actually betrothed to such a shameless man. Anyone would feel that it was a waste of natural resources, a pearl hidden in the dark, and extremely angry. But for Chen Changsheng... this is actually a matter of fact. Good thing. Because of the war with the demons, the human world is actually as concerned about marriage as the Xiuling tribe. There are many young people like him and her who have marriage contracts. As she said before, marriage contracts are the most respected. A kind of contract, unless there are special circumstances, is difficult to be terminated - fortunately, both he and she are unkind.

This sentence sounds a little strange, but it makes sense. It is precisely because the marriage partners are so bad that there is motivation and reason to break off the engagement. The seemingly troublesome problem was solved so easily, and Chen Changsheng suddenly felt much more relaxed. He decided to pursue the victory and solve the final problem.

He looked into her eyes and said: "Now that things have happened, I can no longer hide it from you. In fact, I..."

The black line seems far away in the horizon, but it won't take long before it reaches the tomb. The tide of beasts will bring death, and there is little time left for them in this world. At the last moment of life, my heart suddenly moved. This is a very sad thing, but also a very lucky thing. He was going to tell her that he was Chen Changsheng.

He believed that his name was known to the entire continent, even the Xiuling tribesmen who were far away in the Demon Realm should know it.

Xu Yourong didn't know that he was going to tell her real name. She thought he was a disciple of the Snow Mountain Sect, named Xu Sheng. Seeing him hesitate to speak and looking slightly nervous, she also became nervous.

She thought he was going to confess.

Subconsciously, she didn't want to hear it, and she was mentally prepared to refuse if he really said it.

It's just...she didn't want to refuse. What should I do if he says he likes me? Her thoughts were a little confused, and then she felt confused. He was clearly dedicated to cultivating Taoism, so why did he think about these **** little things before he died? Then, these inexplicable thoughts suddenly disappeared without a trace, leaving only peace.

There are many reasons and purposes for practicing Taoism, some are to become stronger, and some are to explore more unknowns and seek spiritual peace, but most of them are just for the purpose of life and death. In order not to be afraid of life and death, and then escape from life and death. Why? Because there is great fear between life and death, and there is eternal destruction in a hundred years of loneliness. And not long ago, when she was still young, she had just passed between life and death.

Now she is in the calmest moment, the one who can best look down on the worldly world, and the best understand her own heart, with a Taoist heart that is spotless and unparalleled. She looked at Chen Changsheng, waiting for his words to come, with a calm expression. There was a faint hint of shame and a smile in her eyes. There was no anger in that shame, just calm joy, because that was what she was seeking and the path she wanted to cultivate.

She was still weak at this time, but her eyes were extremely clear and firm. Her responsibilities in the world, the historical significance of the merger of the north and the south, the fight against the demons, the sincerity of her senior brothers, the hopes of her seniors, the fetters of the marriage contract, that guy said to her The shadow left on my heart will be blown away by a ray of breeze as long as I am with him, and I can ignore everything and should not accept it.

Yes, she had talked a lot with him while walking in the Zhou Garden, most of which were limited to books on spiritual practice, mountains, rivers and seas, and rarely talked about each other's thoughts. They didn't know each other very well, but she was already very sure that he He is the confidant he is looking for, and he is the good friend he needs. On the cliff of Saintess Peak, she told Bai He that neither a gentleman nor a real person is an ideal partner who can accompany him through the long years of monasticism. So now she can be sure that the one she is willing to accompany through the years of monasticism is That person has appeared.

Yes, this is the Tao she seeks and wants to cultivate: one path.

Walk forward and practice together under the starry sky until the end of your life.

Yes, the beast tide is getting closer and closer, death is getting closer, and life may end soon, but for this reason, precisely for this reason, she must not deceive her heart.

The sycamore tree transformed from the long bow grew in the wind on the edge of the stone platform. Its green leaves swayed gently in the wind, turning the dim light into softer light, as if someone had lit a candle.

Looking into her eyes, Chen Changsheng vaguely understood, and opened his slightly dry lips, ready to speak.

At this moment, a green leaf suddenly fell from the top of his head and slowly fell on his shoulder, interrupting everything.

The reason why the green leaves of the sycamore tree fell with the wind was naturally not because it was autumn, but because there was a vibration under the stone platform.

The vibration seemed to come from the stone platform and from the depths of the grassland far below, but in fact, it came from Chen Changsheng's body.

For some reason, his body was shaking violently and his teeth were chattering, like a patient suffering from a cold.

Xu Yourong was slightly shocked and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Changsheng didn't bother to answer her, and looked at the source of the vibration. He quickly reached out with his right hand and grasped the hilt of the sword tightly.

This violent vibration came from the dagger at his waist.

He held the hilt of the sword tightly, and the dagger continued to vibrate, getting faster and faster, and with higher and higher frequency, so that the very simple patterns on the surface of the scabbard turned into dotted lines and could no longer be seen clearly.

The power in his hand was getting stronger and stronger, but he still couldn't make the dagger quiet. He was a little uneasy and didn't know what was happening.

This was the first time he encountered such a situation after Yu Ren gave him the dagger.

His consciousness fell on the hilt of the sword, and he tried to regain control, but failed. His consciousness continued to go deeper along the hilt, and when he came to that space, he finally discovered the source of the shock.

Among the medicine bottles, secret books and gold jewelry floating everywhere, a black magic weapon is flying at high speed, smashing everything it encounters into powder. As the flying speed increases, the black magic weapon becomes... It is getting hotter and brighter, spreading powerful breath and light around, as if it is turning into a sun.

This black magic weapon is the soul center of Baidi City and the core of Zhou Dufu's tomb.

At this time, it seemed to sense something in the outside world, so it suddenly became violent.

If Chen Changsheng's realm at this time was higher and his consciousness was stronger, he might try to use his ownership of space to forcibly suppress the soul center in a violent state, but now he does not have this ability. He couldn't even make the Soul Center quieter. If he continued to try, he wouldn't be able to succeed no matter how long it took, and it was even very likely that the space would be severely damaged.

He had no other choice but to give up, use his spiritual consciousness, and release the black soul hub.

With a buzzing sound, the black soul hub appeared on the stone platform, shining brightly, illuminating every vein of the green leaves on the sycamore tree, releasing unimaginable pressure, causing Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng's breathing to change. It was very difficult, especially as Xu Yourong's injuries were not healed and his face was extremely pale and weak.

Fortunately, the Soul Hub did not stay on the stone platform for a long time, nor did it attack the two of them. What is even more fortunate and incomprehensible is that this soul hub must have sensed something approaching Zhou Ling to be so violent, but it did not try to break through the green leaves on the sycamore tree to meet it, but turned into A stream of light flew towards the depths of the mausoleum.

Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong looked at each other and understood the meaning in each other's eyes. He carried her on his back and followed the stream of light into the mausoleum again.

…

…

The depths of the mausoleum are empty and dark. A huge black sarcophagus is displayed quietly like a mountain in the middle of the hall.

The black soul hub was suspended in the air in front of the black sarcophagus, motionless, emitting a faint light, like a life lamp.

When Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong returned to the mausoleum, they saw this scene.

Vaguely, they also heard some sounds. The sounds were very ethereal and faint, as if they came from the abyss or the sea of ​​stars, like the murmur of human voices, or like a low mourning music.

The sound coming from the deep sky was obviously unclear, and the music was not continuous, so it was impossible to hear the melody and content clearly, but they all felt what the music and the sound were trying to say.

The soul returns.

Chen Changsheng looked at the soul hub in front of the black sarcophagus and asked after a moment of silence: "Did you hear that?"

Xu Yourong hummed softly and said, "It's not an auditory hallucination, it should be the residual aura of a certain formation."

"What exactly did it sense? I vaguely feel it has something to do with the beast tide." Chen Changsheng asked.

Before they discovered the black soul hub, and in the following time, the soul hub had been quiet, but suddenly it became so violent that it forcibly left Chen Changsheng's dagger and flew to the black coffin, activating these ancient formations. There must be some specific reason for the remaining breath of the Dharma. The sudden change of the status of isolated things has always been related to the outside world.

Xu Yourong thought quietly for a while and said, "I have always suspected that the soul tree is in Nanke's hands. Now it seems to be true, and she is getting closer and closer to this mausoleum."

Previously, Chen Changsheng found it strange that the dagger could isolate the real world from the world in the sheath, but this soul hub could sense the breath of the outside world inside. What kind of connection was it that could actually penetrate the space barrier? Hearing her words at this time, and thinking of the four words "the soul of the weapon is not two" mentioned in Daozang Nanhua Lu, he finally understood the reason.

The lost piece of soul wood was indeed on Nan Ke's body. She came towards the mausoleum with a tide of beasts from all directions, getting closer and closer. At the previous moment, the soul hub finally sensed it.

The soul of the weapon is indistinguishable. A magic weapon like the Soul Hub that can control Baidi City can be called a divine weapon. You can imagine how tense the connection between the soul of the weapon is. After an unknown number of years, the Soul Hub finally felt the return of the Soul Wood, and naturally had a huge reaction. But why didn't the Soul Hub break through the air and return to this black sarcophagus?

"The soul wood is the key." Xu Yourong's eyes fell from the soul hub to the black sarcophagus and said, "It's not the key to this mausoleum, but the key to this sarcophagus."
