Chapter 20: Returning to the Homeland (1st Update)
Nima, after climbing for a long time, I finally climbed up and updated!
Today was supposed to be the third watch, but it was too late...... But there will be three watches, you might as well wash and sleep first, and wait until you get up tomorrow morning to have a freshly baked three watches! (*^__^*)——
But Lin Lan and the others, who were caught in the black hole, knew that this was definitely not a dream.
There was an absolute silence all around, even the sound of the heartbeat was so clear, the darkness could not see the space of the five fingers, even Helian Qiqing and Lin Lan, who were in the infancy of the cultivators, could not see anything, the absolute silence coupled with the absolute darkness, if it weren't for the breath of each other around them, Zhilu Dao was not alone here, they were almost covered by a deep despair and fear.
What's the scariest thing in the world? It's not the line between life and death, but the loneliness that can't see any hope, and it seems that only oneself is left between heaven and earth, and that feeling can almost drive people crazy.
Fortunately, they were able to rely on each other.
Maybe it's the psychological burden that gives people too heavy a burden, they feel that time is especially long in this darkness, it seems that several years have passed, and they are in such an environment, even a determined person like Lin Lan can't help but give birth to a trace of collapse.
The Spirit Wanderer was even more insane, and he almost caused a spatial turbulence in his madness, burying all three of them here. Helian Qiqing had to seal him away, but the spirits of him and Lin Lan had also reached their limit.
It's no wonder that there has been no news of a transcontinental teleportation array for tens of thousands of years, before Lin Lan thought that the teleportation array was too complicated, and now no one in the cultivation realm can understand it, but now it seems that ordinary cultivators can't survive this long teleportation period at all, which should also be one of the important reasons.
Perhaps in ancient times, it was possible to use this method to travel between different cultivation continents. It's only those who are at the top of the cultivation realm, right? Based on their actual experience, I am afraid that at the very least, it is necessary to have the cultivation of the Yuan Infant Stage to withstand the pressure of the teleportation, and those with lower cultivation are afraid that they will not be able to do it.
Countless days, days, months, and months were spent in boundless darkness and silence, so that they almost thought that they would have to be trapped here for the rest of their lives, so when a flash of light appeared in front of Meng Buding's eyes, and magnified it at a very fast speed, covering them all, none of the three people, who were accustomed to darkness and silence, could not react. Then a heavy pulling force came, and they didn't even have time to resist, and they didn't even think to resist. He was pulled down with a bang, and then slammed to the ground.
After staying in the dark for a long time, it seemed that even the senses and reactions were sluggish, Helian Qiqing and Lin Lan didn't use any spiritual power to protect their bodies at all, let alone the sealed spirit wanderer. The three of them fell from mid-air like mortals, and withstood the blow with the strength of their bodies. Fortunately, none of them were ordinary cultivators. Intentionally or unintentionally, they trained their bodies to be very strong, otherwise just such a fall would have killed them for half their lives, and they almost fell into flesh.
They hadn't had such pain for a long time, and their minds were still muddy, so they curled up on the ground for half a day and didn't get up. Fortunately, the physical pain irritated the nerves that had been paralyzed for a long time. After a while, Lin Lan finally came back to her senses, her misty eyes gradually cleared up, and she struggled to get up.
What's going on? Where the hell is this?
She blinked, and stood up in pain as if her bones were about to break. Turning his head and seeing Helian Qiqing and Lingyouzi not far away, he gradually found his memory and recalled it.
Yes, they stepped on a teleportation array that could teleport across continents, and wanted to return to the Tian Yuan Continent, but they didn't expect the teleportation process to be unexpectedly long and dangerous. Although they were not attacked in any way, the kind of scene that was more terrible than facing the holy beast made them know what real danger is, if they fight with people, they are invincible, and there is always a happy ending, which is like not knowing the future in that dark space, there is no way out, as helpless and desperate as a blunt knife cutting flesh, that is the real torture!
But now it looks like they're out? She looked around and saw that this was the same underground space as when she first met Suzaku, except for the absence of that powerful holy beast, everything was exactly the same as it was at that time.
Is it a failure?
Her heart sank immediately, and she didn't hesitate to take many steps, and examined the underground space around, but found no sign of where they were.
At this time, the voice of Suo Suo sounded on the side, and she turned her head to see that Helian Qiqing also stood up, her eyes were clear, and she was as cold as ever.
"Where is this?" Helian Qiqing asked.
She shook her head and said, "I don't know what to do, I'm also investigating." I don't know if Lu Dao has returned to the Tian Yuan Continent. ”
Helian Qiqing also saw the surrounding situation clearly at this time, and couldn't help but flash his eyes, and said, "Go up and have a look." ”
This is also what Lin Lan thinks in his heart. Since it looks like it's no different from before, let's go up to the surface and have a look. Whether the transmission succeeds or fails will eventually be determined.
But......
Lin Lan looked at the spirit wanderer who had been sealed like a mud bodhisattva on the side, and glanced at Helian Qiqing, a little hesitant.
After getting along for so long, how could Helian Qiqing not understand her thoughts? So he frowned and said, "Now that it's out, there shouldn't be any need to seal him anymore." It's just that after unlocking it, I don't know that his divine intelligence can't regain consciousness, and if he can't, it's a big trouble. ”
Lin Lan couldn't help but sigh heavily and said, "No matter what, let's untie it." Even if you are really crazy, there will always be a way to save it. ”
Physical trauma is easy to recover, and mental problems can be troublesome, this is a well-known common sense in the cultivation world, so the monks are extremely careful to protect their spiritual power, and this is the reason. Helian Qiqing glanced at Lin Lan meaningfully, but didn't say anything, just nodded and said, "Then I'm going to break the seal, you'd better be ready." ”
Lin Lan nodded, knowing that this was the spirit wanderer who was reminding himself to be prepared so that he could restrain the mad demon in the first place.
The others couldn't help but smile bitterly in their hearts - they didn't calculate that there would be such twists and turns, in case the people brought back by thousands of hard works suddenly became wasted, wouldn't it be in vain?
But fortunately, God didn't seem to take back Lin Lan's favor, and when Helian Qiqing unlocked the seal on Lingyouzi's body, he seemed to wake up from a big dream, but he still regained his consciousness in a good way.
In the blink of an eye, he looked at Lin Lan and Helian Qiqing as if he had just woken up from a dream, and asked, "Two seniors, have we arrived?" ”
Lin Lan couldn't help but feel angry and funny.
They had a lot of hard work to get out of the teleportation space, and they were almost driven crazy during the process, but this spirit wanderer was good, under the protection of the two of them, it was like a sleep, and they were in the place as soon as they opened their eyes. How can this make the two of them embarrassed by the relationship that they have been struggling for a long time?!
The more she thought about it, the more she felt at a loss, so she said angrily: "You want to be beautiful!" We came out, but it is not known whether it was teleported to the Tian Yuan Continent, and it is possible that the teleportation failed. ”
Ling Youzi touched his head, and he could tell that Lin Lan's mood was not very good, and then he looked at Helian Qiqing's face and it was not good-looking, although it was a little inexplicable, but he still closed his mouth in his heart, and he didn't dare to say anything more.
Helian Qiqing frowned and said, "Let's go, go up and have a look." ”
Lin Lan nodded, and handed each of them a talisman seal, so the three of them once again used the power of the talisman to drill from the ground to the ground, and suddenly it was dark in front of them, and a damp and fishy smell wafted into the noses of the three of them in an instant.
This is......
Unlike the absolute darkness of the teleportation, their eyes quickly adjusted to the light here, and found that the light here was just dark because they were in a cave, and their cultivation was natural to see without hindrance.
The three of them cautiously and incomparably carefully examined their surroundings, and at the same time, the spiritual power of their whole bodies was condensed to deal with any possible surprise attack. It's just that their surroundings are extremely quiet, let alone a sudden attack, and they don't feel any anger at all.
However, the expressions on Lin Lan and Helian Qiqing's faces became more and more strange, and when the two of them checked the cave separately, they couldn't help but look at each other, and couldn't say a word for a long time.
This place, although decades have passed, they still recognize it at once-didn't they just run to the Tianxuan Continent from here in the first place?!
Searched and searched, they disappeared from here, and they came back from here!
When you think about it, it's not surprising. If this place wasn't able to connect to the teleportation node, how could they have traveled to another continent so easily?
After the initial surprise, Lin Lan's heart couldn't help beating violently, and the whole person couldn't contain the excitement in his heart, and for a while, he only felt that the blood was surging upward, which was a rare excitement after the cultivation was achieved, and it was even a little difficult to hold himself.
She...... It's finally back!
Homecoming! The three big words kept flashing from her mind, she thought that she was calm enough, and her long-term cultivation career also made her "human" emotions gradually indifferent, but she didn't expect that in fact, she still maintained the most simple emotions as a human being, and when she stood on the land of her hometown, she couldn't help but feel surging after all.
She, Lin Lan, has finally returned to her hometown!
She was so happy that she just wanted to scream at the sky.
Helian Qiqing stood beside her, although there was no special expression on her face, but it was difficult to hide the strange light flashing in her eyes. He turned his head to look at Lin Lan beside him, the starlight in his eyes suddenly turned into a bottomless abyss, and his lips pursed slightly, making it impossible to see what was going on in his heart.
"This ...... Are we in place? The only one who couldn't figure out the situation was Ling Youzi, so he touched his head in a daze and asked. (To be continued......)
