Chapter 723: Burning Dreams
On one side was the frantic fight of the attackers, and on the other side was the last effort of the defenders, and in the dark space, a series of tremors rumbled endlessly, like rolling thunder. The sky shook, the five colors were chaotic, and the scene was chaotic.
"Damn...... If that young man hadn't died, we wouldn't be so embarrassed now...... right" One person was knocked back by the enemy for several feet, with a deep scar on his chest and blood on his face. In this desperate battle, I couldn't help but complain out loud.
His remark triggered a new round of condemnation of Ye Shuo. In fact, even if Jing Chuzhuo was really there, he might not be able to take everyone out of this place unharmed, but because of his absence, everyone would infinitely magnify his value, and the eyes of hatred were like shooting a row of transparent holes on Ye Shuo's body.
Another wave of gastric juice came, and when the wave receded, what remained in place was a broken jade slip. Perhaps because of the special jade material, it was not corroded in the gastric juice, and it was still pushed to the feet of everyone in the repeated washing.
In the middle of the night, a slender figure bowed his head slightly, and carefully picked up the jade slip. Looking through the screen cracked like a spider's web, I looked at the "99%" progress bar above, thoughtfully.
"Is this the jade slip he left behind......"
After a few moments, another voice shouted, "Silence!
This is Jian Zhiheng's voice. Ye Shuo and Feng Qiu temporarily stopped their futile attacks and turned their eyes. Although the rest of the belligerents did not completely cease, they all responded in twos and threes.
Perhaps for most people, even if they are forced to participate in the fight, as a weak person, the possibility of surviving to the end is very small. At such a time, any person's new discovery can become a turning point in survival.
Under the gaze of everyone, Guan Lin was still standing in place, holding two pieces of jade slips in his hands. The interface displayed on the screen is exactly the same, and several rows of red progress bars are constantly advancing, which is the synchronous transmission of data, that is, the information in Jing Chu Zhuo's jade slip is completely copied to his own jade slip.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am a graduate of the Heavenly Saint Academy, and when I was in the academy, I also took arithmetic, so I can barely be regarded as a half-day arithmetic. Even at such a life-and-death juncture, Guan Lin's tone was as flat as ever.
"Although I can't do it alone, but now that I have the information left by Senior Jing, I think I can also crack the way of birth. I hope you'll give me a little time. Until then, please continue to attack and don't alert the Sky Eater. β
The crowd, who had already fallen into despair, quickly climbed onto their faces with a touch of unexpected ecstasy after gradually digesting the information in his words.
"Wow, that's a good job!
"Since that's the case, I had to say it earlier! I really thought I was hopeless just now...... Okay, little brother, I'll leave it all to you!"
As a high-profile savior, Guan Lin, together with Jian Zhiheng, was immediately offered aside by everyone. Even the most ferocious Quartet heroes will be careful not to let the attack fall into the corresponding range. Together, many people withdrew from the melee and joined the team attacking the Sky Devouring Beast.
"Senior sister, let's use that together?" Jin Siqi looked at Jiang Caini hesitantly.
Since the war contract was made in the room, the relationship between the two has become a little delicate, and to outsiders, it is about the middle between friend and foe. However, this kind of false peace may just be that both of them want to leave the final battle on the stage of Tiangongmen.
Needless to say, Jin Siqi has always been arrogant, but Jiang Caini, who has always been arrogant, has now officially put this fellow junior sister in the position of "old enemy". As for whether the two will be able to laugh and settle their grievances after the victory and defeat in the future battle, or completely end the past grievances, it is not possible to predict now.
"Hmph, do you still need to say that?" Jiang Caini had quickly formed a seal in her hand.
In the cult of the Evil Winds, there is a set of powerful forbidden spells, and unlike ordinary spiritual skills, they must be used by two people at the same time. Although Jiang Caini and Jin Siqi have also practiced separately, they have never been officially used because they can't find collaborators.
Circles of black aura formed between the fingers of the two of them, and as the chanting became faster and faster, the destructive energy contained in the aura continued to intensify, and the space appeared slightly distorted.
When the surging aura was extremely strong, the two of them each raised their hands and pointed at each other, and the staggered auras merged into one in mid-air, one ring after another extending infinitely, like a long black bridge across the sky, straight into the dimness at the end.
After a short silence, a volcanic eruption of energy swept in the sky, the whole world shook, and a large number of black waves were hit by the outer wall, spilling wildly to both sides. At the center of the fierce attack, wisps of broken sand were scattered one after another.
Previously, everyone's attacks landed on the stomach wall of the Sky Devouring Beast, and it had always been directly eliminated, and this was the first time that it had caused a slight reaction. The worship of the Divine Fire Hall on the side was overjoyed when he saw this, and praised it repeatedly: "The two little girls are very capable!
Jiang Caini glanced away coldly, and said unhappily: "Who are you ordering?"
Casting the forbidden spell, every shot is quite hurtful, not to mention a short-term burst, at this time she already felt that the aura in the dantian was not running smoothly, and she had to breathe immediately. But the other party's tone of course still angered the proud princess.
It was also the first time that the Divine Fire Hall was so offended, and he wanted to open his mouth to fight back, but in the end, he endured it. If nothing else, although the strength of the Divine Fire Hall and the Evil Wind Sect is comparable on the bright side, they are the Nine Shadows Hall faction, even if they are a high-level scattered cultivation sect, I am afraid that they will have to give three points here.
"You're wasting your strength!!" Ye Shuo shouted in his throat. Others may praise Jiang Caini and the others for their strong forbidden spells, but in his opinion, they are only full of regret. With such hole cards, it would be great if you could join your own formation and maximize your power before attacking!
He knew the consumption of the forbidden spell, and even if the two of them could cast it again, it would not be as powerful as the first time. There are others...... All the people are wasting their efforts in vain, what the hell is going to ...... In order to unite everyone!
On the other side, Jian Zhiheng and Guan Lien are within the "safety range".
"Hey...... Ah Linden, why don't I remember that you took arithmetic when you were a Heavenly Sage?" Jian Zhiheng was full of confusion from the beginning, in order not to arouse everyone's suspicions, he endured it until now, and finally asked in a whisper at this time, "Didn't you apply for the Go club for several consecutive semesters?"
"Well, and the original arithmetic course has already been returned to the tutor. Guan Lin replied lightly, still fiddling with the jade slip in his hand as usual.
"Then why are you still ......" Although Jian Zhiheng was mentally prepared, he was also taken aback when he heard this. Finally, he lowered his voice in time and pointed at Yu Jian instead.
"You said that...... Guan Lin's tone was unfazed, "That's a lie." β
"Only by saying that, others won't dare to hurt us casually. He then added.
"In this game, the strong are like clouds, and whether they can survive depends on 'whether they have use value'. We have to make ourselves 'useful' people. β
That's a good thing, if it weren't for that, how could the two of them have a chance to fiddle with Jade Jian here now, and they would have been involved in the battle group a long time ago.
"But...... There's not much time......" Jian Zhiheng looked at the gastric juice that came from all sides, "If you still can't crack the birth path in the end, how will you explain it then?"
Guan Lin's expression didn't change at all: "It's okay. We're not going to die here. β
The action of fiddling with Yu Jian was a rare one, and he smiled faintly at Jian Zhiheng, and the broken hair that fell on the corners of his forehead seemed to be dyed with golden brilliance, "Because your dream is still burning." Isn't it?"
Jian Zhiheng was stunned, and his memory was also brought back to that distant, sunny afternoon-
On the wide sports field, Jian Zhiheng was wearing a college uniform, his short flaxen-colored hair trembled in the wind, and there were beads of sweat hanging on the tips of his hair. After a few steps, he jumped up with a sharp body, slammed the basketball in his hand into the basket, and crossed a smooth arc in mid-air.
Beside him, Guan Lin, who was also wearing a student uniform, had lazy eyelids half-drooping, still looking like he hadn't woken up. Seeing the basketball on the ground bouncing on his side, and being caught by Jian Zhiheng with one hand, the expression on his face was always interested.
"I play basketball every time I do the activity class, and occasionally change to something else, the main force of the school sports team?"
Jian Zhiheng smiled and looked at the basketball in his hand, and there was a special feeling in his smile: "Hmm...... Don't you think that the feeling of shooting is very close to the dream?"
Guan Lin raised his eyebrows, looking inexplicable. Among boys at this age, his emotional intelligence is almost zero, and he is not a world at all for what dreams, hot blood, and him. So although he is handsome, he still hasn't had a girlfriend.
Jian Zhiheng smiled, holding up the basketball with one finger, flexibly making it rotate at the fingertips.
"Me...... I always knew I wasn't the best. I can't let girls go crazy for themselves with a face; I can't be like Tang Dui, who has a good mind and can be the first in the entrance exam without studying; I don't have leadership skills like Brother Xiao, and I can make a group of younger brothers run forward and backward for themselves with my fingers. But even so, I still feel very happy. β
Looking up at the blue sky, he smiled very purely, "Because I still have dreams, and I am at an age where I can realize my dreams." I like to shoot because the moment I put the ball in the basket, I can really experience a kind of happiness that I have in my dream. No matter at any time, being young and healthy, as well as the heart that dares to fight, is the greatest capital in life!"
"Linden...... Do you understand?" he turned to his friend at his side.
Guan Lin shook his head decisively: "No." β
Sure enough, it's still too reluctant to talk to Linden about his dreams...... Jian Zhiheng habitually sighed and laughed, but at this moment, Guan Lien looked directly at him, and quietly added: "However, I will support you." β
When Jian Zhiheng was stunned, Guan Lin had already turned around and walked in the direction of the playground. only left a sentence faintly: "10,000 meters run, let's go." β
As the main force of the school sports team, Jian Zhiheng will practice 10,000-meter running in the playground every day after school, and at this time, Guan Lin will always accompany him.
Although the language is indifferent, he has been supporting himself in his own way...... Jian Zhiheng smiled with satisfaction and quickly chased after him.
β¦β¦
A few months later, an intercollegiate basketball game.
Jian Zhiheng lived up to expectations and led the team to win the championship. The moment the score was announced, he was tossed up by his excited teammates, again and again. At that time, although he was soaked with sweat all over his body, the smile raised seemed to condense the sunshine of the whole summer.
"Is that what it's like to realize your dreams?" In the audience, Guan Lin sat quietly in his seat, and did not stand up and chant with the other students. He has never been good at expressing emotions, and even having emotions is a luxury for him.
The joy of a breakthrough in cultivation and the sorrow of failing in an assessment have never been experienced by him. All along, he has just walked on the road of life step by step, as if he was cut off from the whole world. But every time he saw Jian Zhiheng's joy, in the bottom of his heart, there seemed to be a warm feeling, which slowly spread.
"I can't understand it...... Still, it seems pretty good. β
β¦β¦
"Ah Linden......" In the dark space, Jian Zhiheng smiled secretly, "'Burning dreams' or something, this kind of thing doesn't look like you would say?"
"Who knows. Guan Lin looked at the interface of "transmission completed" on the jade slip, without the slightest fluctuation in his eyes, and lightly turned his gaze away, "Maybe it's because I met you two stupid." β
Jian Zhiheng followed his gaze and also looked at Ye Shuo not far away. No matter how small the efforts of the three of them were, they were all persevering in maintaining the formation and shouting to everyone. That kind of stupidity...... No, that kind of perseverance is like practicing repeatedly on the sports field before every competition!
They are all just the most ordinary people, unable to be the shining sun. But if more and more "light" gathers together, even if it is just the light of a grain of rice at first, it can release the brilliance of the galaxy. That's the power of unity. If they are not strong enough, they will be infinitely stronger because of unity......!
Thinking of this, the smile of hope returned to Jian Zhiheng's face again. He turned around firmly, and walked into the formation built by Ye Shuo step by step, Guan Lin smiled faintly, and then entered. Two pillars of light rose into the sky again.
If there is only one person, we may make mistakes and do things that seem stupid to others. So, as long as you are no longer alone, and in the same way, don't leave anyone else alone. If we can trust each other, our dreams will definitely burn togetherββ!
Five shining pillars of light lit up the brilliance of the formation. is also burning, and there are five teenagers' undefeated blood. The slowly rising light has dispelled the darkness in front of us, and it will eventually dispel the darkness in the future.
