Chapter 1263: For Whom the Bell Tolls
Lin Yaotian's body froze.
A deathly pallor spread rapidly through his body, soon covering all of his skin, making him look like a statue carved out of marble.
The pale color spread along the body to the head, and finally covered Lin Yaotian's eyes, and at the last moment before he died, a familiar figure appeared in front of Lin Yaotian's eyes.
"Lin, do you believe that there is a god in this world?"
Selenov's body dragon was shrouded in a hazy shimmer, and only his back could be seen.
"God...... What is God? Lin Yaotian scoffed, "God is just a spiritual pillar set up by human beings themselves, and weak human beings always need an object of prayer." Or is it ...... You, the 'prophet' of the Holy Spirit, should believe even yourself? β
Serenov did not reply, he muttered softly something that only he could hear.
"βNo man is an island, standing alone in this sea......"
"What?" Lin Yaotian frowned.
"βEveryone is like a small piece of soil, making up this vast continent ......"
Selenov's voice revealed a bit of exhaustion, and his rickety body seemed to be unable to bear this heavy burden.
"βEveryone's death is my sorrow, because I am also a member of the human race...... So, don't ask......"
"Ask what?" Lin Yaotian interrupted Selenov's muttering and asked sarcastically, "Do you beg the gods to give you guidance?" β
Selenov chuckled, "Lin, do you believe in fate?" β
"What about you, do you believe it?"
"What do you say...... Serenov shrugged his shoulders, "I remember Wang Wei once told me that one day I would die at the hands of my own brother." β
Lin Yaotian shook his body unnaturally, and Selenov looked into the vast distance, his voice becoming illusory and ethereal.
"Actually, I don't care, you know, there was a sage in ancient Greece who once said: 'Those who believe, fate leads the way, and those who do not believe, fate drags them along.'" Since you always have to go on, why bother to care if you are dragged into the thorny bush of fate. β
"If you believe in fate and God, why did you start the Holy Spirit Cult?"
Turning his head, Selenov looked at Lin Yaotian with a strange look, and the latter suddenly realized that this face was so unfamiliar that it had become blurry in his memory, and only the voice kept echoing in his mind.
"Perhaps...... Is this what fate wants me to do? β
As if thunder broke the silence of the night, the whole world shook, and the surrounding scene crumbled into pieces, until in the end, only Selenov's body was left watching him in the endless darkness.
"Look, now...... You, too, have been dragged in by fate. β
"Nope! Let me go! Let me go! Lin Yaotian wanted to struggle, but found that he couldn't move, the strength left his body with life, and the endless darkness eroded over, and countless whispers came from the darkness, like the murmur of a dead spirit, and thousands of hands grabbed his body and dragged him into a boundless void.
When- When-
Out of nowhere, a long bell rang, the familiar bell echoed in the void, it was an elegy for the dead, only this time, for whom?
The last wisp of pale covered Lin Yaotian's eyes, and the stiff body stopped struggling, and then the entire marble-like body shattered and turned into white sand.
This is the end of Lin Yaotian.
Countless necromancers raised their heads, and thousands of eyes were focused on Ye Hao, waiting for his answer.
Looking at the souls of those deceased, there were old and young, men and women, but their eyes were all the same dry, looking at them, Ye Yu suddenly remembered that sentence.
"Dust to dust, dirt...... Return to the earth. β
Countless undead retracted their gaze, and they just stood silently, their figures slowly blurring, slowly melting into the air, disappearing into nothingness.
But can they really rest in peace? Perhaps the souls that disappeared here will turn into ferocious soul beasts elsewhere. Is this really what they wanted?
It was also at this moment, in the distance that no one could see, in the northern cold city, the bustling city suddenly fell silent, and all the busy people stopped their work, like a clockwork exhausted machine, just kept in a position and fixed in place.
The entire Northern Cold City fell into a strange stillness, and then at the same moment, everyone's bodies shattered at the same time, turning into a piece of white sand.
All the people in the Northern Cold City have already been killed by Lin Yaotian, and all that moves here is a rotten body, they talk, they live, but they have no soul, so they can't cry or laugh.
This is Lin Yaotian's kingdom of God, a world where there is no pain and no tears.
Now, it's all over, and it's all gone with the wind. The endless white sand was wrapped in the wind and snow of the Northern Cold City, blown away like stars, and the entire Northern Cold City was only as empty and silent as death.
An invisible force swept in front of Ye Yu, blowing away the white sand all over the ground, and in the middle of the white sand, there was a white bead like marble.
Ye Yu sat down a little tiredly, he rested his head on his knees, staring at the ground in a daze.
He could clearly feel that his body was crumbling, that no one could save him, and that "going back in time" was useless.
At the moment of shattering the candidate's will, he was already doomed to the present death.
So that's the end of it......
Picking up the white beads with one hand, Xiao Yunfei looked at Ye Yu and said softly: "There is another way." β
"I know......" Ye Yu didn't look up, there was only a dull silence in his voice, "but I don't want to." Xiao Yunfei, I'm tired, besides...... That's what you'd expect. β
"You ......"
"That's it, I...... Let's get some sleep first. β
Ye Yu's eyes slowly closed, and on the bare skin, fine cracks quietly emerged, covering the entire body.
Pinching the beads, Xiao Yunfei slowly closed his eyes.
"I'm sorry, Ye Yu. This time, I can't let you die! β
Pressing his hand hard, Xiao Yunfei pressed the bead into Ye Hao's back, and at the same time, countless green vines extended from his chest and pierced Ye Hao's body.
"It's useless, I'm not going to melt with it...... Woo! β
Ye Yu's body shook suddenly, and he suddenly raised his head, his eyes staring at Xiao Yunfei like a blade.
"Xiao Yunfei, what have you done!"
"Even if you want to kill me, wait until you come back to life." Xiao Yunfei replied lightly. "Besides...... It's not certain if you can survive or not, you say yes, Boss! β
With Xiao Yunfei's words, not far away, an old figure emerged from the air.
"If you already have the will to die, why should you detain him in this painful world?" Shushan Sect Leader said leisurely, his fingers were lightly raised, and dozens of snow-white currents formed a large net, enveloping the two of them.
