Inside the Star Tower.

The wanderer, who was sitting cross-legged and comprehending the mysteries of the magic circle, suddenly frowned: "No, it's not right......

"Haochu!" the wanderer shouted, his voice echoing through the closed hall.

A figure condensed beside him.

Ling Hao had refined the Star Tower at the beginning, and he was able to use the power of the Star Tower World to sense everywhere, and naturally he was able to temporarily condense an incarnation in the Star Tower.

"Wanderer, what's the matter?" Ling Haochu wondered, he was trapped in the black flower to practice, and the earth Xuanzi and the palace master would not easily disturb him.

"There is a very important matter, I don't want to bother you, but after hesitating, it is really wrong, and I still have to tell you. The Wanderer frowned, "It's about the Smoke Mage." ”

"Ruyan, what's wrong with her?" Ling Hao was startled.

"Manipulating the Star Tower is a great burden on the soul. The wanderer said, "So you asked me, Dixuanzi, to help Master Ruyan, but recently, ...... To maintain the Star Tower, the consumption of divine crystals is getting less and less, I asked Master Ruyan, and Master Ruyan said that he has comprehended the magic circle, so he can save loss. But I didn't think something was right. ”

"Something is wrong?" Ling Haochu frowned.

"Well, I've observed it carefully! In the past two years, when Master Ruyan manipulated the Star Tower, the consumption of Divine Crystals has dropped many times! Each time it drops a little, if you add it up...... Today's consumption is only half of what it was at the beginning!" the Wanderer frowned, "This kind of progress is very abnormal, and I suspect even more that the Smoke Mage is forcibly manipulating it regardless of the damage to his soul. ”

"Wanderer. Ling Haochu said eagerly, "It's unlikely, the soul is damaged, the pain is extremely intense, how can you manipulate the magic circle in this situation?"

When his aura clone collapsed, a trace of his soul dissipated, and the pain Ling Haochu knew very well.

"You have been poisoned by ghosts, can you endure it differently?" the wanderer shook his head, "You go and ask Master Ruyan yourself, although it is said that forbearance of soul damage can save the loss of divine crystals, this can also be regarded as a sacrifice for the Xia clan." But this is too quick to achieve quick results. Her soul is constantly damaged, how long can she last? After a long time, I'm afraid she will pass out. ”

"Okay, I'll ask. Ling Haochu nodded, since the wanderer said this, he must have judged it based on many clues.

......

In another hall.

Li Ruyan, who was dressed in light blue, sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, extremely beautiful, like an elf in the world.

"Like smoke. Ling Haochu's figure condensed beside him.

"Haochu, why are you here?" Li Ruyan opened his eyes, "I'm manipulating the Star Tower, I'll talk about it later." ”

"Right now. ”

Ling Haochu looked at Ruyan, looked at his wife's complexion carefully, and couldn't help but say, "Are you, regardless of the damage to your soul, forcibly go all out to manipulate the Star Tower?"

Li Ruyan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled lightly: "Haochu, why did you suddenly say this? I already have talent in the magic circle, and now I have some insights one after another at the critical moment, so the consumption of divine crystals has decreased." Don't overthink it. ”

"I'll let you take a look?" Ling Haochu asked.

Li Ruyan was stunned.

View?

With only a trace of spiritual power infiltrating Li Ruyan's sea of knowledge, the wanderer could easily find out if his soul was damaged.

"Okay, okay, you guessed it. Li Ruyan smiled helplessly, "I know you're smart." ”

Ling Haochu looked at his wife's somewhat pale face, and couldn't help but be anxious: "Like smoke, manipulate the Star Tower, don't force it! If the soul is oppressed, it rests, how can the soul be damaged?"

"I'm in a hurry. Li Ruyan said, "And it's not a big deal if the soul is only slightly damaged, you can slowly recuperate and recover in the future." Now at the critical moment of war, just endure it. ”

"Then you can recuperate from today, the time to manipulate the Star Tower can only be half of the past, and you can continue to manipulate it when your soul is fully recovered. Ling Hao Chu said.

"No way!"

Li Ruyan said eagerly without hesitation, "The control of the tour master is not as good as mine, let alone the predecessors of Dixuanzi." How can I rest at this time? Haochu, am I not fine? Don't worry, I will control it myself. ”

"I'll tell you to stop. Ling Haochu looked at his wife.

Li Ruyan has always admired Ling Haochu.

has lived with Ling Haochu for more than 100 years, husband and wife, and Ling Haochu has made up his mind on important matters, and Li Ruyan will not object.

"Ling Haochu!" Li Ruyan frowned and said angrily, "I manipulate the Star Tower, first, to save you, and secondly, to save the entire Xia Clan!"

Ling Haochu also shouted anxiously: "You have to stop, if you don't stop, I can also make you unable to manipulate the Star Tower, like smoke...... Soul damage is not to be carried out. ”

Li Ruyan looked at the most important person in his life in front of him: "If you really do this, you will force me to die, don't worry, if you don't let me manipulate, I will commit suicide immediately." ”

"Why are you ...... Just ......" Ling Haochu looked at his wife's expression, he understood his wife's determination.

"It's fine. Li Ruyan smiled again, "It's really okay, I'm also for the Xia clan, and it's okay to make a little sacrifice." And if the soul damage is really severe, I will fall into a coma. When the time comes, I won't be able to manipulate the tower if I want to. After I fall into a coma, as long as I recuperate, I will gradually recover, and at most I will not be able to practice in the future, right? Anyway, I have become a demigod and can live for 3,000 years!"

Ling Haochu couldn't persuade his wife, but he could only sigh secretly.

All right.

If the soul is damaged to a certain extent, he will fall into a coma, and with the strength of his wife's demigod, at least his life is not in danger.

"Okay, okay, you go, I'm still manipulating the Star Tower. Li Ruyan said.

Ling Haochu could only leave.

Li Ruyan looked at Ling Haochu's dissipated figure, and whispered silently in his heart: "Senior Brother Haochu, if we can't save you, you and I will never be able to get together again, for me, how is it different from death?"

Immediately, she calmed down and continued to manipulate the Star Tower Circle.

Under the full manipulation of the complex Star Tower Array, her soul that had already had a little damage was greatly burdened, and the damage was gradually increasing, and a trace of soul energy was dissipating. But Li Ruyan didn't care about it, she even showed a little: "The soul is damaged, I have comprehended countless magic circles, and the efficiency is getting higher and higher?"

Yes.

It's a strange phenomenon! It seems to be free from a shackle, out of a burden, but her understanding is improving, and occasionally there is a flash of inspiration, which can reveal more mysteries of the magic circle.

Li Ruyan was completely immersed in it, and she kept manipulating and deducing.

"Senior Brother Haochu, you will definitely be able to come out. ”

......

Year after year.

Ruyan's face is getting paler and paler, but her efficiency in manipulating the Star Tower is getting higher and higher, which can no longer be explained by 'desperate', obviously Master Ruyan's perception of the Star Tower Circle is indeed constantly improving. But seeing Ruyan's face becoming more and more pale, even his breath began to weaken a little, which made Ling Haochu extremely anxious.

"Don't worry, it's nothing, I'll be in a coma when I can't bear it, don't worry. ”

"If you feel sorry for me, just break the black flower as soon as possible. ”

"Mmmm, it's okay, my perception of the magic circle has increased again, and I can hold it up again. ”

Li Ruyan comforted Ling Haochu every time.

......

In the desert, the young man in white who was trapped in the black flowers was constantly practicing marksmanship, and he tried his best to practice his gun in the sound of ghosts and gods playing music.

"It's been five years. ”

"It's been five years!!"

"I haven't broken through yet, I haven't broken through in the three fields, why, why?" Ling Hao held back a fire in his heart, looking at his wife's increasingly pale face, he blamed himself. Why can't I break this black flower? Why can't one of the three fields break through?

Ling Haochu's face was hideous, and he glanced at the ghosts and gods and great demon gods in the red leaf space in the distance.

"I'm going to get out, I'm going to !!"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Ling Haochu practiced marksmanship frantically.

He discarded all interference, and the interference of the ghost and god wind music was much lower for him than at the beginning, and he continued to ponder a trick and spear technique, and even went to study the god-level secret art of the world, hoping to find more insights from it.

Late at night.

The moonlight was like a gauze cloth, draped over the vast desert through the membrane wall of the Star Tower, and even through the black flowers, shining on Ling Haochu's body.

Ling Haochu was still silently practicing marksmanship.

"Boom~~~"

Suddenly, a huge planetary phantom appeared behind Ling Haochu's body, and the planet was pitch black throughout, as if it contained countless mysteries.

"Star Divine Heart?" The faces of the ghosts and great demon gods in the red leaf space in the distance all changed, and the ghosts and gods couldn't help but exclaim.
