In the dark night, countless blue lights converged into a galaxy and fell into the air.

The picture unfolds in dark green and navy blue, the heavens and the earth have been silent for tens of thousands of years, even the unknown birds and beasts have stopped chirping, white smoke is swirling under their feet, vampire bats have also stopped moving, and time has been pressed to pause in this second.

Everyone saw that in the mysterious statue of the flying goddess, a faint afterimage floated out, hovering leisurely in the air at an altitude of 100 meters.

Theseus glared, stumbled a few steps, almost exhausted all his strength, and let out a heart-rending sound:

"Ray! Leona!! ”

The afterimage in the air heard the call, a crisp voice sounded in his head, and his moving pupils continued to expand in the misty light...

The beauty of the face, the corners of the eyes, the bridge of the nose, the well-proportioned lips, the neck, the shoulders, and the slender figure are all characteristics of a perfect woman—is she a lumbini from ancient India, a mirage princess in the depths of Loulan, or a mysterious queen of Angkor Wat?

No, she's a mix of everything.

She looked down at the white bones on the ground, and the long-lost fireflies mysteriously appeared, flickering their light wings to guide her to a slow landing.

The moving autumn eyes opened again after three thousand years, and the delicate little face raised a trace of tenderness: "Xiusi." ”

Xiu Sius stood in place like a thunderbolt, losing the protection of his lips, and his two rows of neat teeth trembled slightly, inexplicably a little more funny.

"Hee-hee, you're still so cute." Leona covered her mouth and smiled comfortably.

Xius raised his hand, he really wanted to hug her tightly, but he was afraid that the shadow that he had been looking forward to for many years would be blown away by any slight movement, his eyes were full of infatuation, and he trembled:

"Ray... Leona, you've been..."

"Yes."

Leona lowered her head slightly, feeling a little aggrieved with guilt: "I'm sorry, Theseus, what you saw was the afterimage of a thought that I sealed on the dagger before I died. ”

Hughes hung his head sadly, like a deflated ball, and shook his head in pain:

"Leona, can you tell me now why you didn't want to leave here with me in the first place?"

"Theseus, I ......"

"Do you have to believe that you are the woman who betrayed love and forsaken her vows!"

Hughes yelled, stretched his neck, and trembled his jaw unwillingly, his long-pent-up emotions made him unable to accept such a result no matter what!

"No, Theseus."

Leona's eyes were full of distress, she looked around, and sighed, "...... Now I can tell you everything. ”

Xius's heart trembled, for countless dark nights, he had a premonition that Leona was not the kind of woman who abandoned him, but when Leona wanted to tell him the truth, Theus was afraid...

A cowardice from the bottom of my heart,

He was afraid that he would go crazy, why didn't he understand her and help her in the first place.

Leona looked at Xius with understanding and smiled gently: "Xiusi, it's not your fault, things have to start with Yin Quan." ”

"Yin Spring?" Hughes was surprised.

"Yes, I received the mission of Emperor Rhys - to destroy the Yin Spring."

"Father?!" Hughes looked stunned.

Leona nodded and continued:

"At that time, I didn't do a specific investigation of the Yin Spring, I don't know what it is, but I learned from the mouth of Emperor Rhys that the Yin Spring is related to the Yin Eye that leads to the two worlds.

Emperor Rhys gradually realized the danger posed by the Yin Spring. It can make the infected obsessed with the evil force unable to extricate themselves, and turn them into puppets and killing machines.

After careful consideration, on the one hand, in order to protect the whole country from being involved, and on the other hand, in order to completely destroy the Yin Spring and protect the Yin Eye, considering that the Soul Army at that time was powerful, and there would be heavy casualties in a head-on confrontation, he sent me alone to complete this task.

At that time, you were the only bloodline in Yeyou, and the Emperor knew that you loved me deeply, and I had mastered the oldest sealing technique in the family, so I "betrayed" you.

Five years after your death, I have been enduring in the Gu Soul Palace, helping them do things, and finally when I have a certain right to speak, I sneaked into the secret room under the Gu Soul Hall and discovered the Yin Spring!

With full of grief and pain, I rushed forward without hesitation!

But!

I underestimated the strength of Yin Quan, not only did I not destroy it, but I was almost devoured.

Seeing that I was bent on destroying the Yin Spring, he ordered me to kill me.

For the next countless days and nights, I fled desperately in this strange and cold land, constantly hiding, and soon my body was covered in bruises.

But when my life was hanging by a thread, an old man appeared, and later I learned that he was also here for Yin Spring, but we were in the south, and he was in the north.

His strength is more powerful than I have ever seen, and with his help, I sacrificed myself and used the last spell to seal the Xizi Killer, but the Yin Spring could not be destroyed.

Seeing this, the old man rushed forward without hesitation and sacrificed himself with the cycle of life. When the universe was reversed, the Yin Spring disappeared completely, and it also slept forever in this gloomy place as if it had completed its mission.

Today's soul army has lost the power of Yin Spring, and can only survive here.

But right now, my seal is about to end, Xius, you promise me that you must kill Xizi completely, otherwise the whole world will suffer!

Emperor Reis's choice is the right one, and I have completed my mission, but you are my lifelong regret.

We are the first generation of demon slayers in history 3,000 years ago.

Theseus, I am the one you love the most, he is your father, you must not be angry with us, but you must continue on this path.

I followed you when I was sixteen years old, and until I was twenty-six, we were burdened with the same mission, but with different destinies.

My dear

You are the boy I want to marry the most before I turn twenty-six,

It's the same time I didn't talk about it after I turned twenty-six.

Thank you, for the oath that has been guarded for hundreds of billions of years,

I love you

Matthews. ”

..................

Hughes stood in the wind, his white skull sliding down two lines of crystal.

Although the disturbance at this time was very damaging to the atmosphere, Su Ye still couldn't help it,

"Uh... Sorry to bother, but I heard your conversation just now, may I ask, who is that old man, and where is he sealed? ”

Leona looked at Su Ye and blinked, "Are you...?" ”

"He is the one who woke me up." Hughes interjected, then hung his head sadly.

"That's it...," Leona looked at Su Ye, "I don't know who he is, and my memory is only stuck in three thousand years ago, but I know the place where he sealed it." ”

"Where?"

"Are you going to look for him?"

"I want to confirm something."

"Who are you...?"

"The descendants of the Eight Yans, you can also understand that the descendants who have inherited the spirit of the night shadow are from three thousand years later."

Leona smiled with satisfaction, her moving eyes revealing a touch of affirmation, "I didn't expect that three thousand years later, these things are still there, but fortunately there are you." ”

"Don't say that, I haven't done anything yet." Su Ye took a breath, "However, now the world is very good, earth-shaking changes have taken place, there are many countries, large and small, everyone advocates peace, you can no longer see the scene of the whole world being war-torn and the people are not living." These ghosts can only hide in the shadows.

Actually, I just came in with a thing, wanting to see what the minions behind him were, but I didn't expect an accident and learned the origin of Bayan's predecessor, which undoubtedly made me see my own path more clearly.

So, it's just us who should say thank you, if you hadn't established the Night Shadow three thousand years ago to fight against evil, it would not be clear or dark in this world.

You are the ones who deserve the most respect. ”

Leona is beautiful when she laughs, and it is a very happy thing to be affirmed, let alone carry so much as she carries.

Everyone looked at Leona quietly, and no one spoke, until the smile on the corner of her mouth was retracted, and she raised her hand and pointed to the tower in the distance:

"He's there."

After speaking, he closed his hands, looked at the flowers and trees around him, looked at the white bone Xiusi, and reluctantly said, "The time is over, I have to go." ”

"What! So fast! "Hughes is in a hurry.

Leona smiled knowingly, "Forgot that our pact isn't over yet?" You've got to promise me to keep going down this path. ”

"But I'm like this?" Hughes spread his hands.

"Hee-hee." Leona suddenly laughed playfully, "You forgot, I'm the most powerful sorcerer in the Night Shadow family. ”

"What do you mean?"

"It means..."

Leona paused, cupped Theseus's face, and looked at him with tender eyes.

suddenly

The peach light in his eyes flickered, and Xius was so absorbed that he turned into a piece of wood.

Leona took Xiusi's hand and walked to Su Ye's side, and said softly, "Your name is ......?" ”

"Su Ye."

"Su Ye, have you ever regretted it?"

Su Ye was stunned for a moment, "Did you mean to come here?" ”

"No, I mean, to become a Bayan, with the same fate as Yeyou."

Su Ye was silent for a moment, "No regrets." ”

Leona nodded with a smile, "In that case, remember these three words, Su Ye, he will definitely be able to help you." ”

After speaking, the peach light flashed in his eyes, Su Ye only felt that his brain was blank, and then he heard a sound in his ear,

"Soul Pact!"

Fall,

Under the moonlight, the two-meter-tall skeleton began to slowly melt, like a milky white stream, heading in the direction of Su Ye, and then, without hindrance, it integrated into the body, everything was like stretching a lazy waist, relaxed.

But Leona's whole face was very tired, and the phantom faded a lot.

Su Ye was dumbfounded, came back to his senses, and looked at Leona blankly, "What did you just do?" ”

"Xius—" Leona stretched out her hand and pointed at Su Ye's body.

"What's wrong with Hughes? Finished? ”

Su Ye panicked, and inexplicably got into something in his body, but he didn't feel anything.

Thinking about the guys in the Gu Soul Hall who had mutated because of evil arts, Su Ye was disgusting, he didn't allow himself to become like that.

"I've fused him into you, it's the oldest and most mysterious witchcraft in our family, and one can only use it once in a lifetime."

"Yet... And then what? ”

"Hughes knows about this witchcraft and will tell you when he wakes up. Su Ye, I have to go. ”

Leona raised her head weakly and looked at the night sky, "Later, I will use all my strength to detonate myself and make the Gu Soul Hall temporarily enter a psychedelic state, but it will only last for a few months."

Su Ye, you hurry up and find that old man now, I'm running out of time, if you don't find him before you blow himself up, you will be sealed here together. ”

Su Ye took a breath, looked at Leona's firm eyes, and nodded, "Third uncle!" Qi Tong, Tang Rui, let's go! ”

The four of them trotted all the way, and after about ten minutes, they stood under the tower, looked at the top of the tower, and were dumbfounded.

Qi Tong snorted a mouthful of snot, "Su... Su Ye, so tall? ”

"Climb!" Su Ye gritted his teeth and walked into the tower.

The pyramid rising from the ground is like a miracle of the world!

It is hard to imagine the time and amount of work it took to stand resolutely in such a wild valley, and how many ancient ages have passed under the tall and steep exterior.

Su Ye ran into the interior of the pyramid in one go, which was a circular corridor-like space, with each floor having its own stone slab.

But as soon as he entered the tower, Su Ye felt dizzy, as if there was a huge magnetic field under his feet that was attracting him, and there was a mysterious voice calling overhead.

I remember one summer vacation, he and his father went to Ali in Tibet, and they climbed the ancient ruins thousands of meters above sea level, but they did not have such a reaction, but now what is going on?

"Third uncle, why do I feel wrong?"

"Climb, fall down, and then go on."

There are many mysterious portraits carved on the surrounding walls, Su Ye took advantage of this to have a little strength, climbed a few floors in one go, and gradually, the colorful portraits around his eyes increased, and there were even a few Buddha statues in the corners.

Su Ye swept around, no matter how big or small, as long as there were nine on the layer where the Buddha statue was placed, representing the Nine Heavens?

Don't...... Is this the center of the world?

He couldn't help but stop, a majestic sense of sacredness welled up in his heart, he looked at a god and Buddha in the corner, wearing armor, holding a demon pestle and a vajra sword, and the ingenious painted feathers were like life, and he seemed to be looking at himself.

With a sigh in his heart, Su Ye shook his head violently, afraid that this thing would really come to life.

Then climb up, the ancient breath in the pagoda fills the whole body, the higher you go, the smaller the space, until the seventh layer, Su Ye gasped, and his physical strength began to be a little exhausted, but fortunately, there was no sign of cramps in his legs, he looked out the window, and everything became small.

However, when he climbed to the twelfth floor, he found that he had not yet reached the top!

How many layers does this pyramid have? Now the space is very small, and when you lower your head, there are layers of pedestals and corridors, as if the whole person has been suspended in the air, is it possible to become a rotating staircase with no end?

The Tower of Babel in the legendary Bible? As long as you keep climbing up, you can reach the strange paradise world?

Su Ye shook his head, there is no god here, he only hopes that Leona's memory is reliable, and he can see an old man on a certain level.

Fifteen...... Sixteen...... Seventeen...... Eighteenth floor!

His legs trembled as if they had been filled with lead, and he was trembling on his knees, and at this moment he had reached the legendary eighteen layers of hell, and yet—there was still one layer above?!

Su Ye's legs had already begun to cramp, he rubbed his bulging muscles, dragged his almost falling apart body and climbed up, and came to the top of this pyramid - the nineteenth layer of heaven!

The narrow space was only for one person to stand, Su Ye crawled on the window and gasped for breath, and a strong wind whistled in the narrow gap, blowing his Liuhai messily in the air.

Suddenly, a palpitation welled up in my heart, like a pair of eyes, above my head, hidden in the deepest part of the tower, staring at me.

Su Ye was trembling, and suddenly he was much more sober, he was at a loss on the top floor, and he touched the eight stone walls indiscriminately, allowing himself to stand up slowly.

He felt two hollows, just enough to fit his hands and feet, like footholds for rock climbing.

Did anyone know that he would come?

Su Ye gritted his teeth, stepped on the concave point, like a clumsy ape climbed the stone wall, and on his head was an old stone slab, Su Ye hit the top with his head, and it was broken? !

It should have been too long, experienced by wind and rain, sun and weathering, and the slate was as fragile as an eggshell.

A lot of gravel fell from the corner of his eye, Su Ye kicked his hind feet and poked his whole head out, he saw two white and flawless moons hanging in the sky, and seemed to be smiling.

There was a huge gourd standing up from the spire, could it be that the mysterious old man was hiding in this gourd?

How is that possible?

This is the highest point of the entire mountain range, Mount Everest in the ancient jungle country, with a steep spire at the foot, and there is no place to stand, Su Ye can only hold the gourd tightly with both hands, as if holding a woman who has loved him all his life.

Lowering his head, the third uncle was about to come up, making the already cramped space even more embarrassing.

The wind was howling, the thin body seemed to be blown down the abyss, surrounded by cold air currents, the tentacles could touch the clouds, the whole world was under their feet, and everything became ethereal.

"You're here......"

Suddenly, the voice drifted into my ears again, like it came from the clouds, and it seemed like a call from another world, it was an indescribably beautiful female voice, piercing all feelings and expectations.

It turned out to be a woman?

But I'm already here, could it be that you let me climb up to the clouds?

"Quiet!"

The third uncle suddenly said vigilantly, and then quickly closed his eyes, as if listening to something.

Su Ye still held the gourd in a strange posture, the muscles of his body began to protest, and fine sweat gradually oozed from his palms, and he would slip if he was not careful.

"There it is!"

The third uncle's nose moved, and he exclaimed, as if he had discovered some secret: "Su Ye! Fast! Jump down! ”

"What?!"

When Su Ye heard this, his feet almost slipped and his head fell over, and he glanced at the ground in horror: "Third uncle!" Don't play like this! ”

"Lao Tzu plays with a hammer! He set up an extremely hidden barrier between reincarnation, right underground! To get there, you have to climb to the top of the tower and jump right in front of it! ”

"Hehe..."

Su Ye's mind was full of trance fragments, his eyes and eyelashes slowly closed, and the muscles of his whole body instantly relaxed.

He let go of his hands, and the whole person left the spire of the pagoda, floated through the sky full of forest atmosphere, and fell to the earth a hundred meters below!

The deep well in dreams, heaven to hell.

Qi Tong and Tang Rui on the next floor screamed, but saw the second figure jumping down.

The third uncle shouted in the air, "Quick! Jump off! ”

Seven pupils: "......"

Tang Rui: "......"

"Do you dare?" ”

Tang Rui took a breath, closed his eyes, and jumped down,

"Hey! You guys! What are you doing here? Wouldn't it be nice to get some delicious food at night! It has to be! ”

After speaking, he stomped his foot and jumped down.

Suddenly, an extremely strong force under his feet, like a huge hand, brutally grabbed the bodies of the four people, and dragged them down together with the souls floating in the air......

Only to feel a burst of dazzling light like a sharp axe slashing down, Su Ye opened his eyes, his head was a little dizzy, and his ears were like the silence before the end.

He observed his surroundings, and it turned out to be a small cave? In the empty cavern, there is only a huge hedron hanging in the air, and under the hedron, there seems to be something faintly hidden?

Just as I was about to take a closer look, suddenly an old man came out of the cave?

Everyone got up, rubbed the painful parts, stood together, and looked at the old man with shocked eyes.

The old man was very thin, with a rickety body, white hair, a thin gown, and a wine gourd pinned to his waist.

When he saw Su Ye and his party, his face was as calm as water, as if he knew that they were coming.

It's like picking up a grandson coming home from school at the school gate.

Su Ye swallowed his saliva and bent down: "Excuse me..."

As soon as two words popped out, the old man's eyes suddenly became sharp!

The thin body burst out with a strong breath, and before he had time to react, Su Ye was shocked on the spot and staggered back two steps, almost at the same time, the third uncle behind him stepped forward sideways, and his two fingers were wrapped around the yellow talisman, pointing directly at the old man.

But just when Huang Fu was about to burn, the third uncle was stunned to find that his limbs were filled with lead, and he couldn't move at all!

The old man snorted coldly, and walked towards the third uncle step by step,

Seeing that the two were getting closer and closer, the third uncle was anxious, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from his face.

suddenly

A scene that surprised everyone appeared,

The old man raised his hand and rushed at the third uncle's buttocks, and then muttered angrily:

"The bunny is capable! Give me back the pretence here, you Su Chong gave you these two words for you! Let me in! ”
