Chapter 20: The Apologists
The strong backlash of the self-destructive foundation was in operation at this time, and Chengxing's body began to feel an incomparable tearing sensation from the soul, although it had also been torn and bitten by the scarred spell Ten Thousand Ghost Devouring Souls before, but this time the pain was a thousand times stronger than that!
If the tearing of his soul before was just being bitten by a tiger, now it was as if a pair of huge palms were tearing his soul apart little by little, and the pain almost made him faint. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, Chengxing seems to understand that this is the end of self-abandonment, this is the punishment of heaven, and this is the consequence of disrespect for oneself and life.
The old man stood straight in front of Chengxing at this time, and the strange thing was that although he said that he wanted to help Chengxing, he didn't see any movement from him at all, but his eyes became colder and sharper, as if he wanted to see through this young man completely.
As before, even in this unbearable pain, Chengxing did not make a sound, he was strong, no, even stubbornly clinging to his heart.
There is a lack of avenues, no one is perfect, no one is perfect, he is already synonymous with the weak, and at this moment he doesn't want to show the slightest pity for the weak.
The old man's calm face finally appeared a little moved, and for a moment, I could see the hesitation in his eyes, as if there was something he could do, but he couldn't see through whether the final result of this matter was good or bad, to do it or not to do it?
Gradually, Chengxing's body, which was still struggling, became quiet.
The old man knew that if he didn't do something about it, this young man would really never be born!
After a long time, the old man finally sighed, as if he had seen through it in his heart, and let go of the hesitation in his heart.
At this moment, the coldness in the old man's eyes was gone, it was a pair of extremely sharp eyes, since he had made a choice, then don't hesitate, what should come is always coming, what he thinks is that even if he can't get the desired result in the end, he can only gamble!
At this time, the old man's true realm cultivation was running rapidly, and his momentum suddenly climbed dozens of times, a set of white clothes without wind and automatic, he quickly made a few gestures on his chest, and then put his left index finger on his eyebrows.
Brush it up!
The old man's whole body was full of golden light, and he muttered in his mouth: "Self-destructing the foundation to borrow strength from the sky, it is a taboo, and the result is only one death, but you are different, the person chosen by God is already the task of changing his life against the sky, and the old man is not a violation to help you, although you are very weak, it is difficult to say whether you can gain a foothold in the cultivation realm in the future, but the old man, I am willing to bet on you, if you ask to become an immortal in the future, don't forget the old man!"
Then, the old man sat down, slowly closed his eyes, and at the same time his index finger left the center of his eyebrows and quickly pointed to Chengxing, a flowing golden energy quickly poured into Chengxing's body, Chengxing's body slowly rose, and finally stopped at a height of one person above the ground.
As time passed, just like that, the old man seemed to have forgotten the time.
When Chengxing slowly opened his eyes and woke up, he thought that when he arrived in the Netherworld, his whole body was extremely sore, he tried to sit up, looked around in confusion, and then found that he was still in the cave.
I was in a state of panic, didn't he destroy his foundation and was about to die, why was he still in the world? Also, there was an old man before, why was he gone?
After making sure that he was still alive, Chengxing was shocked in his heart, and recalled everything that happened before, he fought hard to fight two realms higher than himself at the cost of self-destruction of the foundation, and finally killed the other party, and then the terrible backlash began, and then, the memory was a little blurry, as if he heard what the old man said, but he couldn't remember it.
Undoubtedly, the other party saved himself, but how the old man saved himself, he has no impression, now that the old man has left, even if there is a thousand thanks, he can only hide it in his heart, but Chengxing is a person who knows gratitude, and he silently made up his mind in his heart that he must repay this old man in the future.
However, it is fortunate to be alive, and no one wants to die.
At this time, in addition to feeling extremely sore all over his body, Chengxing also had a lack of strength in prostration, and his gratitude to the old man would be something he would remember for the rest of his life.
Suddenly, a line of illusory words suddenly appeared out of thin air on his head.
Chengxing raised his head and read silently, and after reading, he bowed deeply in the direction of the gate of the cave!
It was really the old man who saved Chengxing, but he didn't tell Chengxing how he saved it, he just told Chengxing not to be so willful in the future, and he wouldn't have such good luck next time, as if he saw some unstable factors, and the old man persuaded him.
Next, Chengxing's face was not very good-looking, because the old man also told him that if he could not reach the entry cultivation level within a year, he would have no power to fight back when the catastrophe came.
A year later, there will be a catastrophe for yourself?
Chengxing couldn't believe it, but he didn't dare to despise it, the old man seemed to have the ability to predict the future, and he even expected it a year later, and suddenly remembered that when the old man first appeared, he also said the same, and his fate was miserable after a year.
What kind of catastrophe is it?
For a while, Chengxing couldn't figure it out, such a thing as spying on the heavens, even if it was one hundred and one thousand of them, he was not qualified to know.
However, the old man told him that he must reach the entry cultivation within a year, otherwise he will only be beaten, which is clear to the stars, that is to say, if you want to protect yourself at that time, let alone resist, at least you have the power of self-protection, and you must first have the cultivation of entry.
Entry, that is the realm above the foundation, he once consulted with the master of the Huazhen, the head of the sect, after the foundation is built, he will enter the country, and the so-called entry will represent the threshold of whether a monk is qualified to spy on the cultivation of the truth!
It's just the threshold.
But for him now, how difficult it is.
Because then an astonishing and desperate fact came to his eyes, Chengxing suddenly found that his cultivation had been completely lost!
The cultivation of the seventh layer of Aiki has not been left at all, as if it has never appeared at all!
almost fell to the ground, and the heart of the star collapsed.
Is that the price?
Do you want to start from scratch, and within a year, you have to reach the cultivation of entering the country?
In fact, the old man was still a little hesitant in his heart, he was not optimistic about Chengxing, although this young man was chosen by heaven, but his qualifications were quite mediocre, ordinary monks from Aiki to entry, it is impossible to achieve it in no thirty or fifty years, those with first-class qualifications may only take ten years, eight years or even three or five years, but this young man, there is no advantage at all, how can he change and meet his fate? Life is a gamble, but if the old man's gamble has an unexpected result, the cost is immeasurable.
Fortunately, through a short observation, he found that although this young man has mediocre qualifications, he has an unusual heart, which sounds good is strong, and bad things can be said to be stubborn and stubborn.
Yes, it was that stubbornness that moved the old man, perhaps, you might as well look forward to this young man.
So, the old man finally saved Chengxing at a huge cost!
None of these stars are known at the moment, but his pressure has also become heavier than others from today.
There was another point that he couldn't help but think about.
That is, on the way back, who instructed Yi Ke to intercept him?
Listening to Yi Scar's words about Senior Brother, and finally even said that Senior Brother cheated him, could it be that the main messenger behind the scenes is Yi Scar's Senior Brother?
Chengxing then had to think about his own situation, through this incident he felt that there was a pair of eyes hidden in the dark, and he could know the same situation at all times, but he could only wait for the other party's move, there was no other way.
It feels very bad to be stared at, Chengxing feels a little more stressed, and the road ahead is long and difficult.
However, Chengxing is not a pessimistic person, on the contrary, he is an optimistic and positive person, with the stubbornness of a donkey, then, these so-called pressures, the terrible black hand behind him, is just regarded as an alchemy on the road to the future, without experiencing hardship, a person can not move forward.
Don't forget, he has been practicing alone in the Immortal Jade Sword Sect all these years, and he has never been in contact with the outside world during this period, except for the cheap master in charge of Huazhen, of course, he doesn't know the true identity of his master at all.
In the practice of monks, the main practice is not only the Dharma, but also the mind.
If you don't have the courage to step over the cliffs, how can you have the fun of picking the peach blossoms on the other side.
After recognizing his situation for a short time, he cleaned up his mood, his heart was full of fighting spirit, of course, his personality was dictatory, and everyone looked at him like an honest child.
Soon, he temporarily buried the corpse in the courtyard of the cave mansion, and then notified his family to collect his body when he returned to the Sword Sect, which was also the last thing he could do as a companion.
For Lou Yuan's death, Chengxing's heart was guilty, but the deceased was like this, what he could still do now, he had already done, and then Chengxing was ready to return.
Originally, I planned to walk back to the Immortal Jade Sword Sect by myself, which would take a lot of time.
But to his surprise and surprise, he saw the long-awaited Senior Sister Jiping.
Just like when we first met, it was fresh and free, like a spring breeze blowing into my heart.
To say that it has been five years since the two first met, although the weak teenager at the beginning is still so weak and vulnerable, his temperament has changed a lot, which proves that Chengxing has also grown up.
Ji Ping asked Chengxing what he had done in the past five years, and Chengxing replied truthfully, the two of them never seemed to lack tacit understanding, even if they hadn't seen each other for so long, no one felt a trace of life, which made Ji Ping slightly surprised in his heart.
Later, Ji Ping also found out the fact that Chengxing's cultivation was nothing, and after asking, Chengxing only vaguely said that he had encountered a terrible enemy, and finally after a fight, he defeated the other party, but he also paid the price, that is, his cultivation was completely lost.
Ji Ping will be skeptical of Chengxing's words, but the relationship between the two is only that of a senior sister and brother, and she has no reason to continue to ask, but she is curious about the previous True Realm monk, this is definitely not a coincidence, that True Realm monk is not related to Chengxing?
Chengxing will not tell Ji Ping the truth, everyone has their own secret, he will not tell anyone this secret, it is a matter of life and death, the cruelty of the cultivation realm, he still doesn't have much of a concept, but he also knows that he has to be vigilant at any time.
Ji Ping Yujian flew, and Chengxing stood behind him, and returned to the Immortal Jade Sword Sect all the way.
Senior sister's body fragrance wafted into Chengxing's nose from time to time, but what he was thinking about at this time was the last few words left by the old man:
"If you can overcome this catastrophe and prove yourself to the heavens, I will be willing to become your protector and help you ascend to the true realm within a hundred years!"
It wasn't clear at all what the concept of the true realm was, but he had quietly made a decision in his heart.
"Prove yourself to the sky, I will not succumb to fate, I will die!"
