Chapter 703: The End of the World
In this life, it is almost impossible for someone to live a life that fully understands, and there will always be many puzzling things that make you overwhelmed and at a loss. This is often the case even for people who are extremely strong-willed and have a clear goal in mind.
Who can see through the hearts of men?
A strong person may hide a sensitive and fragile heart under the hard shell, but everyone will carefully hide their weaknesses, which is human instinct. We always prefer to face the world with spikes and hide the softness in the depths of our hearts.
This truth is not complicated or profound, but many people in the world do not understand, or rather, some people have the wisdom to understand this truth, but they often cannot see themselves clearly. No matter how high you practice, no matter how strong your will is, you will never really be willing to break yourself like a knife.
Everything is the fault of the world, I am innocent, I am forced, I am a victim, how easy it is to make such an excuse.
Lu Chen often thought about it like this, but in fact, looking back, such an idea was not a kind of spiritual defense, so that he could get a little respite in the dark years. Otherwise, those ten years lurking in the Demon Sect, even if his body could still hold on, he was afraid that his spirit would have collapsed a long time ago.
Self-analysis is really a very difficult, difficult, and very painful thing, if it is really like this, Lu Chen has also quietly introspected himself like this, but looking back, he quickly found that the first thing he had to face was the blood he had stained on his hands during those ten years.
For the sake of the so-called righteousness and ultimate goal, and also to win the trust of those demon cult demons, the lives of those people he killed with his own hands were not only evil demons.
He never said these things, and there were Lao Ma and Tianlan Zhenjun who probably knew something about it, but the two of them seemed to have forgotten about these things, and no one mentioned them, as if everyone had really forgotten.
Lu Chen also thought that he had really forgotten.
Until today, at this moment when the apocalyptic catastrophe is gradually taking shape and life and death are uncertain, when he stands on the sidelines and watches like an idler, he suddenly remembers those things in the past.
It turned out that those unjust souls and blood, he had never forgotten in his heart. The shadow is also a human being, and those vague or clear faces flashed in his mind, but finally stayed in the last moment before going into darkness, as if there was a face that he never forgot, always churning in his mind, but always at a distance from him, unapproachable.
He looked up at the sky, the blood moon was faint, and a ray of moonlight fell down, causing the gaze in his eyes to suddenly turn red, and then a dark flame burned.
Lu Chen's body shook suddenly, and at that moment, the fog suddenly dissipated, and the black fire and the brilliance of the blood moon intertwined, making that face, after many years, finally stand out completely clearly in front of his eyes.
Lu Chen saw her, the woman, the woman who had promised to spend her life with him.
The darkness was undulating like a tide, slowly surging, he seemed to return to the night outside the barren valley back then, he saw the familiar black-clothed self, holding the black sword in his hand and staggering forward, and then in front of him, Yun Xiaoqing's figure appeared.
She stopped him.
She seemed to be saying something to him.
Lu Chen's pupils suddenly dilated, his body trembled slightly, and he saw the man in black suddenly hug the woman, and then stabbed the black blade into her chest.

The vision in the sky has become more and more fierce and poignant, and the ground under his feet keeps roaring, as if some terrible and terrifying monster is about to get out of trouble, the sky and the earth change color, and the scene is chaotic.
Even a character like the Transformation God True Monarch was paying full attention to this side of the world at this time, and no one cared, in that small pavilion, there was still a little person who seemed inconspicuous at the moment.
Even if there was a black fire in his eyes.
Lu Chen felt as if his heart had been stabbed by a blade, and he felt a deep chill, but soon, after his anger at those people and things that were hiding from him, Lu Chen suddenly discovered another fact with a cold body, that is, he ...... Apart from anger and regret, there was no more emotion.
He thought he would be crazy and angry, but he didn't, and he found himself like a person who was numb to the bone marrow, losing all feelings. Those dusty past events only stimulated him for a while, but they could no longer make him as excited as he was when he was a teenager.
Has the years turned him into a walking corpse?
That's not how people shouldn't live!
The world was gloomy, and his heart was numb and desolate, until at a certain moment, he suddenly thought that in this world, there was a woman, although she was like a light to him, which once illuminated him.
How long has it been since he remembered Yi Xin!
Probably, that girl won't like this bloody and crazy world. What she prefers is a sunny and beautiful life, a world created by madmen, which she must hate to be.
So, would you like to live in this kind of world?

"Boom!"
The earth finally couldn't stand the strong pressure underground, and dozens of deep pits and holes, large and small, collapsed in an instant within hundreds of zhang, and the terrible ghost howl was instantly deafening.
Several people flew into the air at the same time, and then looked down, only to see that in the depths of the ground, an extraordinarily large magic circle slowly appeared, in the center of the magic circle, it was full of light, as if gathering a small sun, condensed into a ball of light, radiating brilliant brilliance.
But under the ball of light, a spiral-shaped dark door is slowly opening little by little, and the ball of light emits a strong ray on the dark door, which seems to be competing with the power in the darkness, but everything seems to be too late, and the ball of light is becoming more and more difficult, and it is about to be unable to hold on.
The iron kettle Zhenjun and Guangbo Zhenjun in mid-air suddenly seemed to understand something, looked at Tianlan Zhenjun together, and roared angrily: "Are you crazy?"
Tianlan Zhenjun's expression was calm, and even his eyes were still very gentle, where was there a little crazy look. Maybe in his eyes, it's not himself who is crazy, but the world.
He waved his sleeves in a dashing manner, and it seemed that he didn't even want to say anything more to these people, but directly took a deep breath, and his whole body suddenly became golden, and a ball of flame suddenly gushed out from his hand, burning the branch of the divine tree.
Green light rose into the flames, and in the depths of the farthest whirlpool in the sky, a thunderclap sounded, as if some god had finally found his way and opened his eyes.
In the deepest darkness, a ray of lightning tore through the sky, and then an eye slowly opened.
