The blue-and-white feathered bird accidentally crashed into the clouds and circled around the two men in the sky. It was not enlightened, it did not know fear, but it felt that the breath of these two people made it feel close and comfortable.

A fair, slender hand took it. The cloaked man stroked the pretty little creature and smiled, "I can grant your request." But when he regains his memory, you can't meddle anymore. ”

The black shadow said lightly: "You keep the agreement, I don't interfere." ”

The cloaked man heard the vague meaning of the words, and only smiled, not care, "I know you want him to deal with me. But if he can't save his life in my hands, what good will it do to you?"

The black shadow said calmly: "Whether he remembers his previous life or not, but since he has been reincarnated as the son of the deceased, I will protect him." ”

The cloaked man laughed as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. After a long time, he shook his head and sighed: "Admiration, admiration, you can even say this, I really can't say anything about you." ”

He suddenly felt a little wet in his hands, and when he looked down, he realized that he had just laughed so happily that he had accidentally pinched the bird to death. He shook off the blood beads on his fingertips casually and said with a low smile: "This is a win-win good thing, why do you always want to go far and near?"

The dark shadow was noncommittal.

The next moment, both of them looked down at the same time.

The cloaked man's face changed drastically in an instant, and he shouted sharply, "Red Lotus Karmic Fire?!"

As soon as he said the first word, he fled desperately into the distance like crazy, and a mist of blood swirled around him, and his speed immediately skyrocketed—he did not hesitate to burn his own blood in order to escape as soon as possible!

The black shadow waved his hand expressionlessly and threw something out, if Lu Qiming could see this scene, he would be able to recognize that this was another token of the Golden Tree Secret Realm.

In the blink of an eye, the token caught up with the Cloaked Man, parallel to him. Although the black shadow remained in place, the cold voice reached the ears of the cloaked man. I just heard him say: "Why don't you take it? This is also a win-win good thing, why bother to go far?"

The cloaked man's face was gloomy, but he still put the token in his ring. It doesn't take any to say, but he has to be prepared.

He was desperate to maintain his speed, and his eyes were full of anger.

......

In the secret room, the high priest looked at Lu Qiming with complicated eyes.

What is the fire of karma?

The negative karma in the previous life is so monstrous that even death cannot erase it, so that the present life will also bear the negative karmic retribution and suffer from the karmic fire. Karmic fire doesn't appear without warning, but it's like maggots on the tarsal bones that erupt at the first opportunity. For example, most people practice in accordance with the way of heaven and are comfortable and smooth, while those who have negative karma may attract the fire of heavenly calamity.

The second situation is the time of nirvana.

In fact, in either case, it is extremely difficult for karmic fire to appear. In the long life of the high priest, he had only heard of the three phoenix clans who had attracted karmic fire during Nirvana. Not to mention the most terrifying Red Lotus Karma Fire.

There were once people who lost their conscience and did countless evils in their lives, and once almost poisoned a country, but it only attracted ordinary karmic fire. The Red Lotus Karmic Fire only exists in legends, and even the High Priest has never seen it with his own eyes, let alone how much sin it will give birth to this Red Lotus.

The high priest's heart was full of emotion that "people should not be disguised" - how pure and good this kid looks, could it be that he killed an entire plane of people in his previous life?

He muttered on his lips, but his expression was extremely solemn.

What he said to Lu Qiming before was originally just to scare him. The so-called "two percent" is not false, but the Feng clan with pure blood like Lu Qiming is reborn for the first time, and with him watching from the sidelines, it is absolutely foolproof.

But he never expected that the flame when Lu Qiming was in Nirvana turned out to be the Red Lotus Karmic Fire. It must be said that it is a prophecy.

As far as he knew, none of the three unlucky people of the Feng clan who had attracted karmic fire survived, and the longest one only lasted for half a day. The karmic fire itself is the fire of punishment, and even the soul will not let go, and the taste of life is better than death. They did not die directly from karmic fire, but chose to kill themselves before they died. Without exception.

No matter which of the ten origin fires in the universe has the ability to destroy the heavens and the earth, the Red Lotus Karma Fire is among them. And when the ultimate power is only to bring pain and suffering, it is impossible for anyone to afford it.

Fortunately, the Red Lotus Karma Fire was only aimed at Lu Qiming alone, and the aftermath was extremely weak, otherwise even with the cultivation of the high priest, he would never want to approach.

For a moment, the high priest felt at a loss. He had asked Lu Qiming to take away the house before, just joking, singing about black faces; if he had known that this was the case, it would really be better to take the house! Now it is too late to regret it.

"Even you can't figure out what the future holds, one possibility is that he regained his memory and interfered with the heavens," the High Priest sighed softly, "and the other possibility is that he died." ”

The black shadow was silent for a long time, and then spoke: "There is still a chance for the time being." ”

The High Priest shook his head and smiled, "I guess he'd rather not have this opportunity." He smiled, but there was not even a hint of a smile in his tone.

They all knew that Lu Qiming would not die in a short time. Because once the red lotus is present, the sins will never subside if they are not burned out. Ironically, the ten kinds of origin fire, on the contrary, are the most vigorous vitality contained in the red lotus karmic fire, so that those who suffer cannot even want to die.

The high priest asked, "How long are you likely to figure it out?"

The black shadow thought about it, and actually reached out directly into the fire, closed his eyes and quietly sensed, that hand was as slender and graceful as white jade, with a purple delicate ring - it was clearly a woman's hand!

She made a silent calculation in her heart and said, "I don't know how long it will take." After a pause, he seemed to realize the ambiguity of this sentence, and added: "It's been too long to describe." ”

The high priest shuddered and muttered, "This is not good, it will be a living dead after too long, it is better for me to give him a knife directly, it can be regarded as a good thing." ”

The dark shadow was silent, as if considering feasibility.

"Wait. ”

......

At the moment when the red lotus bloomed, Lu Qiming couldn't even realize what was happening, he only felt dazed.

It was like a huge firework blooming around him, and there were sporadic white lights in front of him, and countless memory fragments swirled in his mind like a marquee.

He was the little boy who was led up the mountain by the hand by the Master, and he remembered the beautiful sunrise at the top of the mountain.

He returned to the crescent-like pond in the courtyard, where his father taught him how to use swordsmanship, and his mother walked towards them with a smiling and smiling food box.

He seemed to want to go down the mountain with his senior brother to practice, and the little junior sister said no, but in the end he still said goodbye to them.

The picture turned again, and next to him was Brother Lin, who was dressed as a man, and he was dragged by her to visit the Qinglou.

He suddenly returned to the small valley where the moon spirit grass was as bright as the stars, or the afternoon when he ate and played with Xiao Qi'er in Yupan Lane.

......

He couldn't help but smile at the best of the best images flashed before him, but before he could smile, a feeling he had never experienced forced him back to reality.

The unspeakable pain was like a bolt of lightning that struck him on the head and pierced through his body. The red lotus is rooted in his flesh and blood, rooted in the depths of his soul, and there is no room for escape. Countless lotus flowers bloom one after another, but for Lu Qiming, there is no more terrifying existence in the world.

Every bright red petal is made of him.

It was directly beyond his imagination and could not be understood by him at all. When the pain exceeded the limit of what he could bear, he didn't know how to react, and the whole person was like a stone sculpture, stiff and unable to move.

The only thing that gave him relief was that at the same time as it happened, he felt his consciousness begin to fade rapidly. He didn't resist at all -- how could he care about the consequences of the so-called "soul scattering" at this time? Some things really befell him, and what "will" and "persistence" were nonsense. He wished he had never existed.

The next moment, however, he knew he was taking it for granted. The degree of distraction of his consciousness stopped just before he could ignore the pain, and then quickly coalesced again. The ups and downs have been repeated many times, but he has always maintained the most sober mind and cannot rest for a moment.

So when he heard the high priest's proposal, he did not despair at all, but the real despair was the three words—"Wait a little longer."

No one can remain indifferent in such a situation. After realizing that there was no possibility of easy relief, Lu Qiming had no time to think about his mood. He began to desperately scavenge through his messy memories.

Countless knowledge hidden in the depths of memory surged out in this extreme situation, and the sea of knowledge was violently turbulent, and Lu Qiming's ears burst bloodshot, but he didn't realize it at all.

The body could not move in the fire of Nirvana, so he looked for a trick. Whoever has a little bit to do with this time, he will use it desperately in order to find a way to relieve the suffering.

Every second is like a year.

No means are of any use, but Lu Qiming does not dare to stop.

He has to have something to do, something to think about, or he's going crazy.

......

The High Priest and the Black Shadow looked at each other, shocked and speechless.

"How is that possible?" The High Priest felt the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force in the space, which could be called "riot-turmoil", and was rapidly combining into countless dazzling spells that were constantly erupting around Lu Qiming, and said softly: "How did he do it......"

Lu Qiming will not know what kind of miracle he is doing.

The high priest knew that even a cultivator of his level, with the addition of karmic fire, could only lose all ability to resist, not even think, and could only passively endure the pain until the fire withered and died. Ordinary karmic fire is still like this, and it is not difficult to imagine how miserable the red lotus karmic fire is.

In this case, how could Lu Qiming have the spare strength to order the Five Elements to cast spells?!

At this moment, with the high priest's heart that was already as cold as iron, he couldn't help but be moved and admired.

The dark shadow was silent, unable to see what was going on in his heart. She suddenly stepped forward and put her hand on Lu Qiming's shoulder.

"Little Lotus, what are you doing!" the High Priestess whispered, trying to pull him back. Although Little Lotus is not afraid of the Red Lotus karma, no matter who touches Lu Qiming at this time, they will suffer the same pain.

As soon as the black shadow's hand touched Lu Qiming, he snorted, and his hand instantly bounced away. She swayed and fell to her knees, gasping for breath for a long time before slowly standing up.

The high priest was distressed, and jumped to his feet and said, "Little Lotus, what are you doing with this fun...... You," the high priest suddenly paused, dumbfounded, and stammered, "Little Lotus, are you crying?!"

Little Lotus could cry? Is he really right?

The black shadow touched her cheek consciously, and seemed to be a little surprised. She stayed for a long time before she said slowly, "It hurts too much." ”

The high priest sighed, covered his chest and said, "Little Lotus, you are really ......"

"We want to save. The black shadow interrupted his chatter, and looked at Lu Qiming with complicated eyes. To this day, the hand she held behind her back was still trembling.

The high priest froze for a moment, thought of the only impossible possibility, and frowned, "Is it in time?"

The black shadow said calmly, "You have to give it a try." You and I are here to visualize with him, faster than alone. ”

The High Priest sighed and nodded.

......

Hell on earth, nothing more.

By this time, Lu Qiming had already known the name of "Red Lotus Karma Fire" from the inheritance memory of the Feng clan. If he could, he would have sneered.

He had never had such a fear of something, and that fear had given rise to a very strong resentment. He had never done a single evil thing in his previous life or in this life, but he was forced to suffer this unwarranted disaster, isn't the so-called "Heavenly Dao" stupid and ridiculous?

If he can live and not do the things that are "the same on the outside", wouldn't he have failed the just judgment of heaven?

seemed to sense Lu Qiming's thoughts, and the red lotus became more and more poignant. Lu Qiming smiled mockingly, his anger was as black as ink, surging in his heart.

I don't know if it's 10,000 years or an instant.

The Red Lotus Karma Fire is born for suffering, but it is also the best fire of Nirvana. Lu Qiming's body was quickly replaced by the flame exercise, and the voice of the outside world gradually became inaudible.

It was as if a voice came from an endless distance, and the speaker seemed to be a woman, and the voice was light and beautiful, making Lu Qiming's heart tremble slightly—for a moment he almost thought it was his mother's voice.

And in an instant he denied it. The master who could hear the voice must have been accustomed to giving orders on a daily basis, and now he tried his best to make his tone softer, as if he was afraid of disturbing him.

Even in such a situation, Lu Qiming's first reaction was to laugh, and some warmth was born in his heart again.

He sighed silently.

I only heard her say, "Stop wasting your energy with spells, concentrate on visualizing the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, and then control it." ”

"Controlling it is the only way. ”

"I will give you our understanding of the five elements and meditate with you here. ”

"But in the end, it's up to you whether you succeed or not. ”

With her voice, Lu Qiming felt a slight warmth in the center of his eyebrows, and the next moment, countless messages came into his mind as softly as a stream.

It's bound to be an incredibly long process. Fortunately, although the night was deep, the stars could still be seen.
