Yan Long was still changing his image, this time he was sitting on the dragon chair in the palace, his face was gentle and elegant, if it weren't for Qi Lu just now when he saw the evil hidden in his heart, he would almost have to kneel at his feet.

Qi Lu didn't move, but two people had already knelt on the ground, they were the two brothers.

The palace was as quiet as death, and it was suffocating after a long time before Yan Long spoke: "I ask you for one thing, I hope you can agree." ”

"Please instruct, my subordinates are willing to go to the soup for His Royal Highness the Prince, and I will not hesitate."

With a "bang", a long sword was thrown at the feet of the second brother, and Yan Long said in an extremely painful voice: "My request is, please kill me!" ”

Qi Lu was so shocked that he almost screamed, he suddenly remembered the words that Er Cheng had said in front of him many times, "I have a hard time!" ”

Could it be that I really misunderstood the second brother, and it was Yan Long's own will to kill the crown prince?

Qi Lu was desperate to know the truth, but at this time, the whole dream was collapsing, and he suddenly knew that Yan Long was about to wake up......

"Ahh Yan Long let out a beastly roar, his eyes suddenly opened, and a furious golden light danced wildly through the cavern.

Qi Lu, who had returned to the present world, had cold sweat oozing from his palms, and he stared straight at Yan Long with a complicated expression.

"Damn Birch, how dare you disobey my will!" Yan Long, who woke up, immediately understood who was making trouble.

"Hehe, this means that I am not the only god who opposes you."

"Why are Tianwu and that girl gone?" Yan Long regained his composure, and the cold and fierce light in his eyes reappeared. "You let Birch take them, didn't you?"

"Not bad."

"Do you think they'll run away by doing that?"

"I don't know, but I don't have any good cards to play right now." For the first time, Qi Lu showed his lack of confidence in front of the enemy.

"They can't escape!" Yan Long shouted, Qi Lu heard a rumbling sound behind him, he quickly looked back, and found that the cave on the right had reappeared.

The sound of the ghost crying wolf suddenly came from inside, and countless human heads that had recovered their vitality flew out, and they crossed the top of Qi Lu's head and fell into the pond water of Juntai.

Countless bubbles bubbled up from the surface of the pond as if it were boiling, and the human heads quietly surfaced, this time, they were no longer lonely human heads, but human figures with complete bodies.

Yan Long shouted again: "My pets, search all over the world, and I will also arrest these rebels for me!" ”

"Yes!" There was a creepy sinister laugh coming from the hole.

Each figure exuded a tyrannical aura, and in this cave with a strange atmosphere, these controlled souls flew out like arrows.

"With me here, none of you want to go out!" Qi Lu roared, and his sword stopped in front of these ghosts.

The figures grinned, revealing demonic counts, and they all rushed towards Qi Lu.

"Jin Zhen Qiankun!" Qi Lu jumped out lightly, rushed to them and performed a killing move without hesitation, where the sword passed, a breath of domination raged, and the ghosts fell to the ground one after another.

It seemed that Qi Lu had completely gained the upper hand, but his expression became more and more serious. Every time a ghost is killed, the grimace of the deceased returns to its original form, and his eyes are full of blood and tears.

Finally eliminated all the ghosts, Qi Lu put away his sword in his hand and looked coldly at the stone-like Yan Long.

"I underestimated you, but I didn't use the power of the gods." Yan Long said lightly, it seemed that these dead ghosts had nothing to do with him at all.

"It's because I underestimated your hard-hearted heart, how many hardships these immortal cultivators have gone through, but in the end, they were used by you and became low-level ghosts."

"Indeed, their power is not worth mentioning in front of me, so you can settle it with this small spell."

Qi Lu yelled: "Don't you feel a little guilty? Is the former kind and loving Crown Prince dead? ”

"Hahahaha, do you think that now I am completely occupied by evil?"

"Yes, although I don't know what's going on." Qi Lu said sadly: "In the dream just now, I saw your past. From the moment you order your brother to kill you, you will no longer be my beloved Highness the Crown Prince, but the embodiment of the devil! ”

"Looks like I'm overestimating your intelligence." Yan Long said with a tone of regret: "You still don't understand what the reason is? ”

"Why, why is this happening? Are you really a freak of good and evil in one? Qi Lu shouted uncontrollably.

"Good and evil in one? I used to think so, too. Yan Long's eyes dimmed a little, as if he was immersed in the memories of the past.

"From the day I was born, I was aware that there was evil hidden in my heart, and it would burst out from time to time. I've been hiding it, but paper can't contain the fire after all, and my father still noticed my abnormality. ”

"He threatened me that if I continued like this, I would be stripped of my crown prince and one of my brothers would be chosen to succeed to the throne." Yan Long's voice suddenly became urgent, "Do you think I'm not sad, looking at my own appearance, I can't wait to kill myself with my own hands!" ”

Qi Lu's emotions were infected, he looked at Yan Long with a complicated expression and said, "Your Highness, it's still too late to turn back, I believe that there must be a way to cleanse the evil in your body within the Three Realms." ”

A wicked smile appeared at the corner of Yan Long's mouth: "Alas, it seems that it was all said in vain before, you still haven't been able to comprehend the truth of the universe, do you really think that good and evil are opposed to each other?" ”

With a "dang" sound, Yan Long threw a gold coin in his hand, which kept rotating in the air, and then turned into a huge Taiji diagram, and the black and white yin and yang pisces kept rotating in the diagram, and finally turned into a vast starry sky.

"Everything in the universe was born from Qi, it is the beginning and the end, whether it is good and evil, black and white, or light and shadow, all the opposites of the world are the projections of its different appearances, and they are so impermanent changes to maintain the balance between the universes."

Yan Long continued in a tone without any emotion/color: "Lu Wu, don't you understand, joy, anger, sorrow and happiness are intertwined, good and evil are also entangled, if you force evil, it will definitely provoke a greater backlash. Those so-called righteous teachers use the slogan of acting for heaven to eradicate evil, but the good and evil in the world have never disappeared for a second! This is the essence of the universe, the eternal truth! ”

Qi Lu trembled when he heard this, shook his head and said, "I think you are crazy, how can this be the truth!" ”

"What a foolishness!" Yan Long sighed: "Since you are stubborn, then I have no choice but to use my strength to let you see the true meaning of the universe!" ”

As he spoke, Yan Long raised his hands, and the entire cave fell into darkness, and the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howls came overwhelmingly, and Qi Ludun felt that unknown danger was quietly coming.

"Do you want to stop me with such a trick? It's just wishful thinking! Qi Lu shouted, and the golden rainbow sword slashed at the air, and a dazzling golden light emanated from the sword body, illuminating this dark cave.

But the scene in front of him surprised him, and the surrounding area was densely packed with countless ghosts, waiting for an opportunity, ready to give their most fatal blow at any time.

The light of the Golden Rainbow Sword was gradually extinguishing as if it could not withstand this evil power, and Yan Long's figure was gradually becoming transparent, leaving only his eyes shining in the darkness.

"These fellows have spent their lives in the pursuit of eternal life, longing to be on an equal footing with our gods, but in the end it has been a bamboo basket for nothing, and now I might as well let you feel their pain!"

In Yan Long's cold voice, suffocating resentment erupted from the bodies of these undead, and Qi Lu seemed to see the broken tears in the netherworld in the night, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and protect his sword in front of his chest.

"Hehe, are you still pitying these poor creatures? Kindness to the enemy is the greatest harm to oneself! Yan Long sneered.

"Wow!" An unjust soul flew up first, straight towards Qi Lu, and then more unjust souls wailed and pounced, Qi Lu didn't want to flip his wrist, and the golden rainbow sword swung out a sword and stabbed the first unjust soul, but what surprised him was that his sword was like a split into the void, and this unjust soul passed through the blade unscathed, and drilled directly into his body!

"Why is this happening?" Qi Lu was shocked, the Golden Rainbow Sword was a divine weapon that Emperor Jin received and delivered to him, whether it was a tangible or intangible object, it could be split with a sword, but now it couldn't help a mere unjust soul!

But time did not allow him to think about it, and in the blink of an eye, all the unjust souls passed through Qi Lu's body as if they were nothing, and then floated in the air again, and the atmosphere of the whole scene was strangely condensed. It was so noisy a moment ago, but now it is suddenly silent.

"Ah...... Yes! Finally, Qi Lu couldn't help but scream, he supported the ground with his sword, and his figure was already shaky.

This was not a moan/moan because of his own pain, but at the moment when many unjust souls passed through his body, Qi Lu actually felt all their pain and helplessness, and these emotions infected him, making him deeply trapped and unable to extricate himself.

Yan Long's figure appeared in front of Qi Lu again, and he looked at these unjust souls indifferently and said to Qi Lu: "Have you already sensed the pain of these immortal cultivators, as well as the unwilling resentment?" ”

"Yes, you...... Lift them out of their misery! Qi Lu's words were unprecedentedly fragile.

"You should understand my plight by now, right?" Yan Long said slowly: "The reason why I want to create a new world is to save those beings who are worth saving, so that they will no longer be sad or painful, and they will never be able to say goodbye to reincarnation and transcend the boundaries of life and death. ”

"What?" Qi Lu raised his head suddenly, and saw blood and tears flowing from Yan Long's eyes.

"Lu Wu, good and evil are eternal, since neither aspect can be eliminated, then all I can do is let it settle and return to the beginning." Suddenly, indescribable complex emotions appeared on Yan Long's face, "In fact, before me, someone had already comprehended the truth of the Heavenly Dao, but he would never have the opportunity to realize this dream. ”

He ...... Who is he? ”

Yan Long looked at Qi Lu with a torch in his eyes, laughed and said, "He is your proud best friend, Hou Yi!" ”

"No, it can't be!" Qi Lu suddenly lost control and shouted.
