Chapter 20: The Breath of Life

Nine deaths and one life outside the tower

A bright moon hangs high in the night sky, and the bright moonlight pours over the heavens and the earth.

The ancient trees are towering to the sky, and the steep peaks of the Jiuyou Mountain Range are covered with a layer of silver-white veil.

"It's time!" On the top of a lush mountain peak in the Nine Secluded Mountain Ranges, Wang Cun looked at the screen of his broken spiritual power in front of him with long and narrow eyes.

As the spiritual power screen shattered, everything displayed on the screen turned into nothingness.

The last level of the Nine Dead Life Tower, no one can snoop.

......

Nine deaths and one life inside the tower

On the Shura Stage

Wu Xi with the help of Bodhizi's majestic life.

The bloody scabs from the wounds on his body began to peel off.

In a moment, Wu Xi's closed eyes slowly opened, and immediately a trace of terrifying silver light that turned into substance shot out from the young man's ink pupils.

"Thorn!" fell on the ground of the Shura Terrace, burning a tiny white dot.

"It is worthy of Bodhi, the injuries on his body are all healed by the dark wounds left in his body. Wu Xi closed his eyes and looked inward, and looked at his body.

After a moment, when he opened his eyes again, his handsome face couldn't help but show a look of disbelief.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but outline a smile.

In fact, before coming to the Nine Deaths Tower, although a large number of star stones were used to repair and heal the internal organs and injuries in the body.

But because of the rush of time, it left a strong sequelae, and the internal organs and meridians were even more innumerable.

If it weren't for the Nine Deaths Tower, Wu Xi wouldn't have dared to do it at all.

It will only slowly heal the wounds with the star stone bit by bit and repair the body.

It would never be such a thing that would be equivalent to self-destruction of Doji.

Originally, Wu Xi planned to wait until he broke through the Nine Deaths Tower and then find a way to deal with the dark wounds in his body, but now he doesn't need to.

Getting up, Wu Xi's body suddenly collided with the meridians, and immediately there was a crisp sound like a popping bean on his body.

At the same time, the blood scabs on his face and body also "lalala"!

Suddenly, Wu Xi's skin became as white and delicate as a newborn baby, and he could almost pinch out water.

With a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, Wu Xi unfolded the Bodhi Zi held in his right hand.

At this time, the Bodhi Seed became dim, completely not as crystal clear as before, glowing with turquoise aura, exuding the appearance of Dao Yun.

Seeing this, a smile overflowed from the corner of Wu Xi's mouth, and he couldn't help but disappear.

Wu Xi knew very well that this was because most of the majestic life qi in the Bodhi Zi was extracted by himself.

The qi of living beings is actually the essence of life of living beings, which is extremely precious.

No matter what kind of creature is in the Martial Domain, once the qi of the creature in the body passes, it is not far from death.

For example, at this time, Shura, who had long lost the breath of life and fell on the Shura platform, was the tip of a halberd from Wu Xi's Shattered Star Halberd, which extracted and devoured the qi of the living beings in his body in an instant.

The Shattered Star Halberd in Wu Xi's body itself needs to extract the soul qi in the body of the devouring creature in order to cultivate and restore its original divine power.

Chen Kang had already told Wu Xi about this.

It was really for this reason that Wu Xi dared to make a dangerous move and put him to death.

Of course, the most important thing is that Bodhizi protected Wu Xi's spiritual sea from being affected by the evil aura that erupted in Shura.

maintained a trace of clarity on the spiritual platform.

Similarly, if Wu Xi was really just a condensing spirit realm, it would be absolutely impossible for him to extract so much soul qi from Bodhizi.

Whether it is Wu Xi or He Yujie who gave Wu Xi Bodhi, he actually knows this.

However, they tacitly agreed with each other not to say it.

Because, no matter how good the relationship between the two was before, they are now strangers.

This is especially true for the loss of everything in the past, and even more so for Wu Xilai.

In the absence of any of the other party's clear statements of their absolute goodwill.

Even if the two know each other and will never threaten themselves, it is difficult to give their sincerity to each other.

Even if He Yujie gave Wu Xi Bodhi Zi and released his kindness, Wu Xi did not dare to reveal all his situation to He Yujie.

"Hold Bodhi, realize life and death!" This is He Yujie's message to Wu Xi in the storage ring.

As soon as he thought of this, Wu Xi's eyes darkened, and the environment around him suddenly changed.

The Shura platform under him disappeared and was replaced by a cyan slate.

The body of Shura on the side also disappeared.

Seeing this, Wu Xi's pupils suddenly constricted, and then his body tensed, and his eyes looked around vigilantly.

At this time, Wu Xi stood in a place similar to a square paved with bluestone.

As far as the eye can see, there is no edge at all.

Not only that, but a white mist rose around the body at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What a comfortable feeling, such a rich breath of life!" For a moment, Wu Xi felt extremely comfortable in the breath of life, and he had an urge to can't help it!

Although he didn't let down his vigilance because of this, he stretched out his hand to sense the mist around him, and found that it was all extremely pure soul qi converging, and he couldn't help but feel a look of horror and exclaimed!

Now he fully understood why the Nine Deaths Life Tower imprisoned so many alien creatures, it was very likely that it was to extract the life essence from the alien creatures.

Because for the human race that controls the Heavenly Monument of Life and Death, the importance of the spiritual qi formed by the convergence of life essence can almost be compared to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is absolutely inseparable from the human monks.

There are even far greater than heaven and earth aura in some aspects.

Not because of anything else, just because the qi of the living soul can wash and strengthen the flesh of the human race and increase the longevity, although the aura of heaven and earth also has this effect, but it is too slow.

Moreover, it does not directly increase the life span of the monk, only when the monk breaks through the realm, he will increase some life expectancy accordingly, and absorbing the qi of the living soul can directly increase the life expectancy.

This is a temptation that no monk can resist.

It's just that forcibly extracting the life essence from the body of living beings violates the harmony of heaven and earth, and it is easy to receive punishment from heaven and earth, and suffer from the five decays of heaven and man.

Therefore, no monk would do such a thing until it was absolutely necessary.

And those who dare to do such things will be branded as evil cultivators and spurned by thousands of people.

"Wu Dian shouldn't do this, right, although they are of a different race!" Thinking of this, Wu Xi closed his eyes again and mobilized his spiritual power to sense the qi of the living beings around him.

Except for the demon clan, there is not much disgust for other alien Wu Xi.

However, Wu Xi didn't notice that the life qi around him was quietly seeping into his body through the pores of his unconcealed skin.

For an hour, two hours, the aura of the creatures around Wu Xi continued to seep into his body through Wu Xi's pores, but Wu Xi remained motionless like a statue, closing his eyes to sense the aura of the creatures around him, and he had no intention of opening his eyes at all.

If it weren't for the snort, I'm afraid it would have made people think that it had really become a statue.

It's just that unlike before, Wu Xi's originally fair and delicate skin became extremely red as the qi of the surrounding creatures penetrated, like a red-hot soldering iron exuding a blazing temperature.

Time passes.

I don't know how long it took, at this moment, Wu Xi's skin was like a burnt pottery, red and exuding a blazing high temperature, and cracks opened one after another, wisps of red like magma with white mist and fine bubbles of blood oozing out of the skin cracks.

The blood soaked Wu Xi's body again, and for a while, the young man's thin body was bathed in blood, which made people's scalp tingle when they looked at it.

But Wu Xi still had no intention of opening his eyes, and Junxiu's face seemed to be completely painless, as calm as ever, without any waves.

It's just that the aura emanating from Wu Xi's body is gradually weakening.

Because blood is the source of life for all living beings, and the life essence of living beings is contained in the blood of living beings.

Without blood, life is not far from death.

If Wu Xi saw his current appearance, he should be able to guess how the aura of the creatures around him probably came from!

The breath of life can save people, but it can also kill people.

I think that if an ordinary person who is very healthy rashly takes a thousand-year-old ginseng and other great tonic medicines, it will be difficult not to be compensated to death.

And Wu Xi's current situation is the same, their bodies have been repaired and cured by Bodhi seeds, if they are absorbing the qi of living beings, just like healthy ordinary people taking thousand-year-old ginseng, it is difficult not to be replenished to death.

......

North Secluded City, East City, Baibao Zhai

In a secluded compound

Secluded courtyard, in the pavilion next to the flowing spring rockery.

Dressed in a lilac floor-length dress, a woman with a peerless appearance, her bright eyes looked at the direction of the Northern Youcheng Tower in the Nine Deaths Tower.

The moonlight turned into a light veil and gently draped on the woman's graceful and delicate body wrapped in a lilac floor-length dress, revealing the almost perfect and exquisite curve of the woman's delicate body, which looked particularly hazy and dreamy, adding a touch of mystery to the woman's original noble and elegant temperament.

"All things are born, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, life and death go hand in hand!"

The woman's bright eyes looked into the distance, and muttered to herself in a low voice!
