Chapter 624: My name is Zhang Qing and I am an immortal
Yuan Caiyi is nearly 40 years old.
This was once a very young number for a monk, but now it is an age that only a few people can reach.
In this bad world, ordinary people can only live to be 50 years old at most, and as a monk, it is difficult to even reach 30 years old.
Because in the era of the end of the law, the power of the Dao law was greatly weakened, and other means had to be used to make up for it.
There is a blood and soul ingestion to increase strength, but this often leads to self-degradation and becomes a part of the harm to the world.
The other ability is to contribute one's life and soul, and each spell will make oneself one step closer to death.
The two means exist alternately in this world, the former is hostile to everyone, and once it appears, it is the enemy of the whole world, but in such a world, even if there are many people's hostility, how can it compare to the strength of its own strength?
You must know that in this era of the end of the law, the strength of the cultivators is getting lower and lower, but the various monsters that are born are becoming more and more powerful.
The mutated monsters are even more likely to shrink their own territory.
What's more, it's also the constant weirdness, the kind of terrifying existence that can't be resisted no matter what, as if the rules of the world itself, shattered one gathering place after another that could still hold on.
"This world can't continue to hold on."
Sometimes, Yuan Caiyi thinks like this, this world has begun to have signs of the end of the world since she was very young, with the passage of time, there are more and more terrifying things, and the number of people is getting smaller and smaller, and there are only more than 7,000 people left in the gathering place where she is now, and every once in a while, the number of people will decrease again.
If this continues, I am afraid that in ten years at most, no, five years, this gathering place will be completely destroyed.
And go to other places besides the gathering place of Luoxia County? Leaving aside the ability to go, even if it is safe to arrive, it is a huge question whether you will be allowed to enter.
And if everything is going well, will other gathering places be able to survive?
How many gathering places Yuan Caiyi has seen over the years have disappeared so quietly, and there is no trace of them again.
Thinking of this, Yuan Caiyi suddenly thought of the incident back then.
A short-lived terrifying existence, after retrieving Wang Dalang's soul, suddenly disappeared, and I don't know where it went.
At this time, Yuan Caiyi suddenly regretted a little, how to plead with the other party at that time, maybe there would be a different life?
Just as she was about to throw the thought away, a figure suddenly appeared behind her.
"Who?" Yuan Caiyi quickly discovered this, and on her side, a shadow had betrayed the person behind her.
"Long time no see, Yuan Caiyi." Zhang Qing opened his mouth and said, he looked at the woman in front of him, who was already a little old, and the somewhat heroic woman he had seen before was really very different.
"It's you, big youkai!" Yuan Caiyi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise and shouted out all her inner words.
It was just that when the words came out, she felt bad, but seeing that Zhang Qing's face had not changed, she secretly let out a sigh.
She glanced at Zhang Qing: "Haven't you already left?" What do you want to do when you come back? ”
Yuan Caiyi guessed that Zhang Qing's return this time was likely to bring the ultimate despair.
After all, he is not a human being, and in Yuan Caiyi's heart, the horrors outside cannot be compared with Zhang Qing at all.
"There's something to do when I come back this time."
Zhang Qing laughed, "By the way, make up for the fact that you assisted me in retrieving that soul back then, because I was supervised by Heavenly Dao back then, and I was in a hurry to leave, so I didn't make a move to give you the benefits I originally wanted to give you, this time when I come back, I can fulfill your wish." ”
"Oh? Aspiration? Yuan Caiyi laughed, she never thought that this big monster in her mind would actually say that he wanted to give her a wish.
To be honest, she didn't believe a word in her heart, but now that they have all arrived in this field, how bad can it be?
So Yuan Caiyi said: "If it is a wish, I hope that this world can return to the original peaceful and stable life, and there will be no more these monsters and monsters, and there will be no more those terrible weirdness." ”
"Can you fulfill such a wish?"
Listening to Yuan Caiyi's words, Zhang Qing smiled slightly: "I don't want to help you realize this wish." ”
As Zhang Qing's words fell, Yuan Caiyi's face darkened slightly, but this was something she had already expected, so she was not disappointed.
But just as she was about to mock her, Zhang Qing spoke again: "After all, this is my main task this time, which is to save this world from the apocalypse. ”
"It's a bit of a shame to use your wishes to accomplish this task."
Zhang Qing's smile was completely mysterious in Yuan Caiyi's opinion, and he didn't know the meaning of these words at all.
It wasn't until a moment that Yuan Caiyi, who was a little dazed, pulled his reason back: "You mean, you came back to save the world?" ”
Yuan Caiyi felt as if she was hallucinating.
A big monster wants to save the world? Isn't this just a mouse being a bridesmaid for a cat?
How can such a thing happen?
But looking at Zhang Qing's expression, looking at the same demeanor as in her memory, it was really difficult for her to say what she complained about in her heart.
Moreover, even if the straw that saves life is easy to break, it is still a meager hope.
"What do you mean...... It's true? ”
Yuan Caiyi took a deep breath, completely restrained his smile, and asked Zhang Qing in front of him in an extremely serious voice.
This is the question of all her hopes, and if she is disappointed again this time, she may not have any courage to face the future again.
"Of course, I'm here to save the world."
Zhang Qing saw her heart and the light of hope in her eyes, so he nodded equally seriously: "I don't have any need to deceive you." ”
"Saving the world, getting it back on track, that's really my mission this time."
Yuan Caiyi's tears fell as soon as she brushed it: "Finally...... Finally ......"
She choked up, not knowing what to say to express her inner emotions, and waited until a long time before she looked at Zhang Qing with teary eyes and asked a question that had been hidden in her heart for twenty years.
"Who are you?"
The corners of Zhang Qing's mouth poked into a smile again, if it was twenty years ago, he would not be able to answer, but at this moment, he could tell her loudly.
"My name is Zhang Qing, and I am an immortal!"
