Chapter 29: Gu Yuan
Wu Chen immediately came to the highest point of the arch bridge and looked into the distance, and there seemed to be a figure hidden in the thick darkness.
The faces of the other party were completely unclear, the night was shrouded, and the thick fog blocked most of the vision, and the monks in the red circle walked slowly towards that side one by one, as if they were preparing to worship some god.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Wu Chen shouted at the crowd.
But no one responded to him, and this copied bridge seemed to have become a road of life and death, and the result of walking to the end of the bridge was not to be able to communicate life and death, but to step directly into the abyss of death.
It is absolute death and will not enter the realm of eternal life.
Wu Chen saw that something was wrong, and immediately rushed over to shake them, and even tried to chop or block their way with black flames, but it was useless, their brains had fallen into chaos, and even their consciousness could be deprived, but the sky above the bridge echoed with their uniform footsteps.
Was it possessed by evil ghosts? But no matter how Wu Chen observed, he didn't feel the slightest chill on these people, as if the person standing opposite him was not an evil ghost, but a monk whose cultivation was strong enough to despise all of them.
Wu Chen ran in front of Qian Duoduo, the other party's eyes looked straight ahead, there was no expression on his face and even a trace of whiteness, like a thousand-year-old zombie who had been manipulated.
After shaking for a long time and still not waking up, Wu Chen slapped a few times angrily, but it was still useless, but Qian Duoduo had a few bright red slap marks on his face.
Wu Chen's eyes swept and came to Chu Ziyue again, the other party's condition was exactly the same as Qian Duoduo.
Even then, the fight in the distance stopped, and the pink skull reverted to the beautiful bride, her heart-rending laughter echoing as she retreated.
"Haha, haha, since you have stepped on the Nai He Bridge, don't look back. β
There were signs of struggle on the faces of the seven highest cultivators, as if some kind of domineering consciousness was invading their brains, and even now Wu Chen began to feel a buzzing sound echoing in his head, a voice was hypnotizing him, that voice was gentle and peaceful, making your consciousness hazy involuntarily.
"Damn, you're not going to put yourself on this, are you?"
Wu Chen shook his head vigorously, but the more you struggled, the stronger the sound became, like a barb hooking consciousness, the harder you struggled, the deeper the barb pierced.
Damn, what about the little boy at the critical moment? he pops up every day when he is not needed, and disappears when he is needed.
In just a few seconds, Wu Chen's consciousness collapsed, and his gaze changed from shrewdness to dullness, just like the group of people who were lining up to the end of the bridge.
Wu Chen walked slowly to the end of the line, with strange steps under his feet, like a silent monk, and like a puppet with a string.
But then, when no one noticed, his eyes flashed bright red.
"Brother~"
Vaguely, a shout suddenly pulled Wu Chen's consciousness back, and Wu Chen's eyes regained a touch of shrewdness, but he still couldn't control his body, and walked forward step by step.
"What the hell is going on?" Wu Chen wanted to shout, but he couldn't open his mouth, and an invisible coercion covered him from the front, like a big mountain in front of him.
It was obviously a monk with a strong cultivation, and he stood on the opposite side and watched these people coming, and suddenly opened his arms as if to embrace them.
"Welcome, today is your most honored moment, to be my sacrifice, to leave here with me, to conquer the world. β
Exposed in front of Wu Chen's eyes was a young face, he was wearing a black robe, and his sharp face was sharp and angular.
Who's that?
"Ancient ...... Gu Yuan?" came from the crowd Lu Fan's exclamation, because of their cultivation, they were only controlled by their bodies, and they were not controlled by their consciousness.
"The only guy who walked across the Nai He Bridge?" Song Yunze frowned.
"He's still alive? how is this possible, hasn't he been missing for hundreds of years?" asked Purple Kite, puzzled.
"That's a good question," Gu Yuan waved his black robe with a wave of his big hand, "Who said that dead people can't exist in this world? Who said that dead people can't be reborn?"
"Rebirth, your so-called rebirth is to treat us people as sacrifices, right?" Jiang Lingxue's eyes were cold.
"No, no, no, all I need is the five of you," Gu Yuan's voice was yin and yang, "Those low-cultivation guys originally wanted them to die directly, but who knows how they came back, so they had to sacrifice together." β
"But how did you know we were coming?" the purple kite seemed to realize something, and her eyes turned to look at Jing Zhe fiercely.
Jing Zhe was silent and slowly walked to Gu Yuan's side.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, but it's our honor to be a sacrifice. Jing Zhe said in a deep voice, "It's time for the Huiyin Sect to change hands, and it's time for the City of Forgotten Worries to shuffle, the biggest reason why this place has been reduced to a low-level city is that the five major forces are too balanced, and only by breaking this balance can we go further." β
"In other words, the pill you gave us ......" Purple Kite's eyes widened, and she swallowed her saliva involuntarily.
"That's the Soul Leaving Pill, although your cultivation has not yet reached the condensation stage, it is already infinitely close, the soul seed has been generated, what Gu Yuan needs is this seed!"
"But then you'll die, too. Lu Fan stared at Jing Zhe with tears in his eyes, "Moreover, although Gu Yuan's cultivation is unfathomable, you still want to rely on him to take down the entire Forgotten Worry City?
"I don't have to worry, haven't you forgotten, I have a real blood sacrifice soul pill. β
"As for taking the Forgotten Worry City, it is not difficult, do you know who Gu Yuan's elder brother is? That is your Huiyin Sect's Great Elder Gu Cang, Gu Cang's cultivation after this retreat is definitely more than the Huiyin Sect Master, and then you, the young master, may not be able to be for long. β
"The resurrection of the dead by soul seeds alone, has never been recorded in history. Song Yunze snorted disdainfully.
"Of course there aren't enough soul seeds, but haven't you noticed," Gu Yuan's voice paused, "But the other side of the bridge?"
"The other side of the flower?"
Wu Chen's pupils in the crowd shrank suddenly, and a bold and even extremely naΓ―ve idea emerged in his mind, and even if he had this idea, he didn't dare to believe it.
"What do you mean......" Lu Fan's eyes flashed, as if he had guessed.
"Do you know why I died?" Gu Yuan chuckled and continued, "Because I crossed the Nai He Bridge, but in the end, the result was not to communicate life and death, but to death. β
"I can't help it, I can only come here and survive in the form of a dead man, but I find that I can only be regarded as half a dead person, and I don't even have the freedom that other ghosts have. His expression became extremely frenzied, like an old psychopath.
"I had to go out, so I searched and tried countless methods, until one day, I saw the other side of the flower ......"
"It's bright red, flowers that can really communicate life and death, their colors are so colorful and gorgeous, they are the stepping stones of my recovery!"
"What do you mean?" Jiang Lingxue was still puzzled, he himself knew very little about this Nai He Bridge and the flowers on the other side.
"Because the flowers on the other side are connected to life and death, and they control reincarnation, and the flowers and leaves will never see each other," a strange voice suddenly came from the crowd, it was Wu Chen, Hongye was constantly blocking the invisible control in the dark, and now he could speak again.
"The flowers and leaves on the other side will never see each other forever, but if the flowers and leaves meet each other, it is the time when the reincarnation is reversed. β
"That's right, brother has vision," Gu Yuan was not surprised by Wu Chen's opening, "Cover the flowers and leaves on the other side with 10,000-year-old true ice, and when the flowers bloom on the other side, the leaves will not fall, and the day the flowers and leaves meet will be the time when I will be reborn." β
Jing Zhe also seemed to be affected by this atmosphere, and stepped forward and smiled slightly.
"It may still be difficult to defeat the other three major forces by integrating the Blood Sect and the power of the Huiyin Sect, but we still have the most important hole card, and it should be okay to tell you now. β
"That hole card is ...... Open the gates of hell. As soon as Jing Zhe's voice fell, he slowly turned his head and looked at the red-robed bride who was standing aside with a weird smile.
