Chapter 371: Memories are the only unchangeable fact
"This is ......" Bai Zaiyuan's heart was shocked, and he looked at Bai Xiu, but saw that he also had the same look, and the next second the two seemed to have the same heart, and they ran towards the center of the lake.
Bai Yu'er was stunned, and hurriedly chased after her, there were several people lying on the side of the well, and her grandfather woke up and was struggling to get up.
She was overjoyed, and just wanted to help him, but he pushed her out desperately.
"Yu'er, let's go, hurry up and inform everyone to leave! Bai Chao was bribed by outsiders and made a move on Zai Yuan's sealing spell, and now the power of the Chaos Seal and the Hongyuan Spirit Vein is suddenly out of balance, and it is about to get out of control!"
"How is this possible...... "Don't talk about her, even Bai Zaiyuan is puzzled.
At this time, Bai Yu'er came back to her senses and subconsciously spread her hands: "Wait a minute, isn't the Seal of Chaos here......"
Before she finished speaking, she was stunned again, how could there be any chaos mark in her palm, it was actually a piece of jade that had long been shattered into powder.
"W-What the hell is going on!"
Bai Zaiyuan's eyes were suddenly revealed, he and Bai Xiu glanced at each other, and said slowly: "We have indeed been tricked, the spiritual power refined by the Xingyao Spirit Array before was not fighting against the old spirit vein, but fused with it, no wonder it will be unbalanced."
Doing so is much more troublesome than we had planned before, and it is impossible for Bai Chao to have this ability, unless he hides it deeply. β
Bai Xiu also knew a little: "I thought that the force that tried to subvert the cultivation world only emerged in recent years, but I didn't expect that there was already a ...... at this time."
Seeing that the heavens and the earth were about to collapse, Bai Yu'er said speechlessly: "Brother Bai Xiu, don't talk nonsense with him, when is it, get out of here quickly!"
Bai Xiu didn't move, he turned his head to look at the crowd surging on the shore: "I can't go, haven't you thought about it, since Bai Xingyi dares to let you stay here, he must have considered today's situation."
If you can't protect the Seal of Chaos, then he'll let you be buried with it, with this secret. β
"How come, Venerable, Venerable, he ......" Bai Yu'er turned her head and looked at her grandfather pleadingly, but he and Bai Zaiyuan were silent, and they actually acquiesced to Bai Xiu's words.
"Therefore, the Great Elder has not compromised, because he knows that if the people of Hongyuan Island want to leave here, there is only one way to die. Bai Xiu looked at Bai Zaiyuan again, "Actually, you also discovered this secret, that's why you changed your plan." β
Bai Jae-yeon smiled noncommittally.
Bai Xiu sighed: "But you don't really plan to take the Seal of Chaos for yourself, you have long been clear about the plan of the Bai Dynasty, so you also know what you will take out in the well."
You are planning to chase me away, but you want to "help" Bai Chao complete his plan, because your purpose has not changed, that is, to lead the Hongyuan Island vein to completely break free from Bai Xingyi's control. β
"Brother Bai Xiu, you, are you saying that the current situation was caused by Bai Zaiyuan, he already knew what Bai Chao wanted to do, but he didn't stop it, because he also wanted to destroy Hongyuan Island?"
The more Bai Yu'er listened, the more confused she became, "This is too ridiculous, now we have nowhere to escape, and the way he wants to let the people of Hongyuan Island get free is to kill us all?"
"Of course not, because he knows that the 'facts' cannot be changed, and the Hongyuan Island lineage will survive in the end, and he actually does this to push the 'facts' in the direction it should be, because he is afraid that I will change history. β
Bai Xiu was very sure of this, and smiled at Bai Zaiyuan, "You and the Great Elder's position is the same after all, right? You all regard the continuation of the Hongyuan Island lineage as more important than your own lives.
The Great Elder doesn't want to 'change his life against the sky' because of my arrival, so he intends to sacrifice himself and push history back to its original place, and you can't do that.
In a sense, you are a staunch supporter of him, and yesterday he said those words only to test me, and if I insist on stopping your actions, I guess there will be no follow-up. β
Bai Zaiyuan spread his hands with a sigh, and finally spoke: "Alas, I seem to have underestimated you, it seems that you have already noticed my plan, but ...... You don't seem to be planning to intervene?"
"You think too highly of me, in the face of an established fact, we are all actors manipulated by fate, and we can only perform according to the script. Bai Xiu said angrily, "As for the scripts in those scripts, they are just decorations to show the twists and turns of the plot." β
"What a mess ......" The shaking under her feet became more and more violent, and Bai Yu'er was anxious, "When do you still have the kung fu to play dumb riddles here!"
Her urging had no effect, and the calmness of the three contrasted sharply with her anxiety.
Even if Bai Yu'er was simple, she also noticed something strange at this time, and she asked with a glimmer of hope: "Grandpa, have you thought of any way?"
The Great Elder sighed and didn't speak, she turned her inquiring gaze to Bai Xiu again, Bai Xiu wanted to speak and stopped, but Bai Zaiyuan nodded her forehead: "Those who should come will naturally come, don't ask nonsense." β
Bai Yu'er is also a stubborn character, seeing that the three of them obviously knew something, they naturally wanted to break the casserole and ask to the end.
However, before she could speak, a hoarse roar suddenly came from the ground, and in the next second, a light dragon rose from not far away, roaring and crashing into the crowded crowd on the shore, splashing flesh and blood for a while, instantly dyeing the originally pure and flawless jade veins into scarlet.
The sorrow of despair spread, like a funeral song echoing between heaven and earth.
Bai Yu'er watched in horror as those familiar faces shattered in front of her eyes, and couldn't help but clench Bai Xiu's hand: "Brother Bai Xiu, save them, save them, I know you will definitely be able to save everyone!"
Bai Xiu couldn't bear to tell her the truth: "We only said that the Seal of Chaos has been suppressed by the Hongmeng Spirit Vein for a thousand years, and the reverse is not the case, now that the Spirit Vein Yuan Qi has just been free, I'm afraid that no one dares to hide its edge, and I can't do it." β
Bai Yu'er looked at him as if she was looking at a stranger, she sneered with tears in her eyes: "I misunderstood you, the brother Bai Xiu I know is by no means a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, if you don't want to go, I'll go by myself!"
"Although it is relatively feasible to use the undead countercurrent to repair the Star Circle, the sacrifice is too great to go on like this. β
Seeing that she was about to rush to the purgatory-like opposite shore, Bai Xiu's heart was still a little shaken after all, he looked at Bai Zaiyuan, "Since there are already seven seven and forty-nine revenant souls, maybe we can try other methods." β
Bai Zaiyuan couldn't help frowning.
"It is not up to us to decide how many people will die, so what is the difference between forcibly interfering with the process of established facts and changing your life against the sky? Since you have decided to sit idly by, don't be soft-hearted, or you will suffer in the end. β
Bai Xiu retracted his gaze gloomily: "Since it is an established fact, it means that no matter what I do, it will not change, and on the other hand, everything I do is just conforming to this fact." β
"You really still have a lot of information hidden, so you actually know what to do a long time ago?" Bai Zaiyuan's heart moved when he heard this.
Bai Xiu smiled bitterly: "Yes, I didn't have any hope to change anything from beginning to end, because what was chosen by the facts was actually the best solution, and it was you who should stay out of the matter." β
He motioned for everyone to stand back, walked slowly to the well, and slowly but surely pinched a mantra.
The calm surface of the well has not changed, and the reflection of his figure is the same as it was ten years agoβalthough he has not changed much in the past ten years, he still recognizes it at a glance.
"And so it was. β
Everything that is happening now is just his memory, the so-called starting over is his delusion after all, those things and people in the past are really in the past, and he can never deceive himself.
At this moment, Bai Xiu no longer thought about it in his heart, and slowly urged the spell.
For a moment, time seemed to freeze, the sky collapsed, and the world gradually became quiet.
The secret method he used was estimated to be somewhat familiar to the Ming family who knew how to do itβyes, even the eight-star corpse sacrifice array that they had lost, this was what Ling Cang took the time to tell him, but he didn't expect it to be useful today.
The Eight-Star Sacrifice Corpse Array requires more than 500 living sacrifice arrays, and even if other secret methods are used to supplement the formation in the end, it must also have 7749 people.
There is no doubt that it was a difficult decision: no, everyone had to die, and if he did, he would kill these forty-nine with his own hands.
It stands to reason that after experiencing so many such choices, he has long been numb, but it is difficult for him to face it after all when he sees so many of his fellow clans dying in front of him, in fact, he should be grateful to Bai Yu'er, if he insists on using the previous method, he will collapse first.
As for whether the Eight-Star Sacrifice Corpse Array can push the Hongyuan Island Spirit Vein back into the confrontation with the Seal of Chaos, it seems that it can only be resigned to fate.
Buzz Buzz β
A slight tremor sound came from all directions, indicating that the aura of the Eight Star Sacrifice Corpse Array was gradually condensing, Bai Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, it could run flawlessly, and it was already half successful.
"W-What is that?!" The clouds surged more and more majestic, and Bai Yu'er suddenly pointed overhead, where a huge phoenix fluttered its wings and flew towards the light dragon with a long roar.
Bai Zaiyuan couldn't help but glance at Bai Xiu: "It's just half of the spiritual power of the Phoenix Jade Que, there can be such a big movement, it's terrifying in the future......"
A dragon and a phoenix quickly met each other, and for a while, the sky and the earth changed, and everyone looked at this earth-shattering vision in amazement, almost forgetting to move.
No one knew that at this moment, Bai Xiu's heart also moved quietly, and then this sudden realization made him change his mind, and he secretly said that if he could really do that, maybe everything would be solved.
Thinking that he pinched a trick again.
I don't know how long it took, but the rolling red flames of the phoenix and the monstrous waves of light dragons gradually dissipated, and it seemed that everything had settled.
However, at some point, a black cloud filled the sky, and it was like an evil ghost, almost enveloping the entire Hongyuan Island, as if something was about to crawl out of its belly.
Everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath, as if sensing the approaching danger.
Suddenly!
A golden light flashed, and a huge roar came from behind the black mist, and almost at that moment, a huge opening slowly cracked open from the horizon.
"This is ......" The Great Elder was well-informed, and a little shocked suddenly surged up from under his cloudy eyes, and for a while he was so excited that he could barely say a word, "Tianzhen, Tianzhen, this is Tianzhen!"
