Chapter 40: A New Beginning
Running forward step by step, as if there was no purpose, she didn't know where she was going, she didn't know what was ahead, she just wanted to keep running, afraid that once she stopped, she would not be able to control herself.
The clear memories in her mind faded away, began to blur, and soon disappeared in front of her eyes, she no longer dared to recall the past, those experiences may be happy, but the memories are a kind of torture.
What am I afraid of losing? But what do I have left?
Is all this going to go away?" Yu Jie hit a spirit, she didn't dare to think about it anymore, she could only numb herself by running, but it was obvious that this would not help.
Suddenly, her body was out of control, and she stopped without warning.
Then Yu Jie turned around and ran back like crazy, she didn't feel that this was her body, she only knew that her body was desperately rushing back, and she couldn't control it at all.
Soon, Yu Jie saw the two who were still in a stalemate, she didn't know what she was doing, she just felt a blank in her mind, she only felt her body rush over, and at the same time raised her arm.
At the moment of swinging the fist, Yu Jie closed her eyes.
"Poof!"
Although he couldn't see it, Yu Jie could still feel a pain in his fist, and then as if he had broken something, streams of cold liquid were flying outwards and falling on his fist, bursts of coldness.
At this moment, Yu Jie opened her eyes.
She saw strange blood flowers bloom and come to her face, sprinkled on her clothes and on her face. A hole was revealed in the center of Yuyue's eyebrows, and her forehead bone shattered, and she fell to the ground.
Yu Jie let out a sigh, she felt a little unreal, very illusory, where did she get the courage? Is this really what she did? At this moment, she seemed to have a different change, germinating in her heart.
Yu Jie squatted down, raised her hand and slowly closed Yu Yue's eyes, her heart was very calm and relieved.
"You did it. ”
Pu Tiange was paralyzed on the ground by exhaustion, he spent a lot of divine power when he was in a stalemate with Yuyue just now, and he was also seriously injured, although his face was very pale, but with a smile, he nodded to Yujie.
Yu Jie didn't speak, just looked at Yu Yue's corpse in a daze, looking a little sluggish.
"Yuyue is the first companion we have sacrificed here. ”
"Maybe the moment you were picked out to find the Tianyu Monument, you knew that there might be sacrifices. ”
"You've thought it could be yourself or your peers, whoever it is, you're mentally prepared. ”
"But you didn't think that one day you would take the life of your companion with your own hands, and you didn't think that you would face such a difficult choice, am I right?"
Yu Jie nodded.
"Maybe some choices are inevitable, the key is to see how you face it, you can be sad, you can be lost, you can be confused, but you can't forget your own value. ”
"Value?" Yu Jie looked up suspiciously.
"There is a sense of mission that is innate, not only referring to the mission of finding the Tianyu Monument, but referring to the efforts made for the continuation of the ethnic group, which is where the value of the individual lies. ”
Seeing Yu Jie bow her head and ponder, Pu Tiange knew that Yu Jie at this time would think more long-term, because she had experienced setbacks, grown up, and understood many truths.
Sometimes, just because you know something doesn't mean you can understand it, you can accept it.
Perhaps only those who have experienced it can truly understand.
"Okay, I won't say more, let's rest for a while and go find Yuqing and them, I believe they won't be too far from here. Pu Tiange said that if Yuqing and the others were seriously injured, they should not be too far away from here, but would find a hidden place to hide and recuperate.
"That Sister Yuyue's corpse .............................." Yu Jie's face was sad.
"Stay here, the dirt in the Onisawa Forest is very ominous, so it's best not to bury here. "Pu Tiange doesn't want to leave Yuyue's body here, but he can't bury it or take the body with him, so it's the best choice to stay here, and there are no fierce birds and beasts in the Ghost Ze Forest, and he is not afraid of the corpse being eaten.
"Can't you be buried, do you really want to stay here?" Yu Jie was a little reluctant.
"Let's mourn and change, the deceased is gone, what can we do?"
Pu Tiange knows that there is a great strangeness in this ghost forest, and terrible things have happened one after another during this time, so it is by no means a sad time, and he must always be uplifted and move forward.
After the two of them rested for a while, they began to look for Yuqing and the others, it was the morning, and the faint light sprinkled on the ground through the dark branches and leaves, which seemed a little dim, and there was a dead air all around.
The two searched for a long time, from the morning to the afternoon, and finally met Yuqing and a few people in a hidden shade, at this time Yuqing and a few people were meditating and healing, and after Pu Tiange and the two approached, several people opened their eyes vigilantly.
"Who?"
When they saw Pu Tiange and the others, Yuqing and the others felt a little incredulous, and after being stunned for a moment, they all ran over, their excited eyes were moist, and they shouted loudly.
"Heavenly Song........................... Yujie ..........................."
Pu Tiange patted a few people on the shoulder, and he found that Yu Qing's clothes were too tattered, covered with scratches, and the external injuries were serious, and the shocking wounds were exposed, and the blood was mottled.
In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that Yuqing and they were chased and killed by Yuyue, who turned into a monster, and they were bloody, and they were already very lucky to survive, but ........................
With the strength of Yuyue's body after the weirdness, that kind of speed, that kind of strength, it can be said that Yuqing and they have no room for resistance at all, the reason why Yuqing and they were able to escape is probably because Yuyue still has some residual consciousness, and his nature is not completely annihilated, and he can fight against the bloodthirsty side, so Yuqing and they can survive.
But as time passes, Yuyue will eventually lose her mind completely and become a bloodthirsty monster.
"How did you get here?" Yuyue ...................................." Yu Shixin's face was full of bitterness, and before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Pu Tiange.
"You don't have to say it, I know it all, but you have to hear what I'm going to say next. ”
"Here's the thing............................................................"
Then, Pu Tiange told the story from beginning to end, starting from Pu Tiange and Yu Jie chasing Yu Qing and a few people, until now, all these experiences have been told in great detail.
In the process of listening to Pu Tiange's narration, Yu Qing's faces all became very ugly, and when Putian Ge finished speaking, their faces were not only ugly, but also very shocked.
"You killed Yu Yue, how can you ........................" Yu Shixin looked at Yu Jie incredulously, with a hint of anger in his eyes, and roared loudly.
"You calm down, that's not Yuyue anymore, look at the injuries on our bodies, will Yuyue do this?" Yuqing stopped Yu Shixin, who was a little impulsive.
"Does that mean we can't save Yu Yue? can't we find a way to save her?" Yu Shixin's confidence was a little lacking, and his voice was much quieter, he just wanted to argue.
"I'm afraid not, Yu Qing once said some legends about the Ghost Ze Forest, in those legends, there is no shortage of peerless powerhouses in the Ming Dao period of the Holy Spirit Realm to come here, but even if it is a strong person in this realm, there are still people who have become that kind of bloodthirsty monster like Yuyue's fate. ”
"Even a powerhouse of this realm can't get rid of this weird change, what hope do you think Yuyue has?"
Although Pu Tiange's voice was not loud, it was calm and powerful, and Yu Shixin was speechless when he said it, so that he could no longer argue anything, and could only sulk secretly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have lost a companion, and I know you are in pain, but perhaps each of us will die, and if we can't complete our mission before we die, then who of us will be blind?" Pu Tiange continued, not wanting the mood of the crowd to be too low, so he could only motivate them to fight.
For a while, everyone fell silent, what did they pay so many sacrifices for? Wasn't it for the Tianyu Monument? For the revitalization of the human race?
If they can't do that, what's the point of what they're doing?
They came from outside the Ghost Forest, all the way to the depths of the Ghost Forest, and they were already very close to the target, as long as the Ancestor Yu Renjie of the Tianyu lineage deduced correctly, then this place is probably not far from the center of the Ghost Forest.
Victory may be close at hand, it may seem illusory, not real, but it is really within reach, as long as you take another step forward, it is not a dream to find the Tianyu Monument.
"Thank you for believing in me these days, if it weren't for your help, we might not be where we are today. Pu Tiange clenched his fist with one hand, put it on his chest, and solemnly made a human salute to a few people.
Several people hurriedly clenched their fists with one hand, put them on their chests, and saluted Putian Ge and the Terran salute. This is the most important ritual of the human race, implying God-given blessings and divine favors. Only when we treat those who have a mission can we make this great gift.
"What's polite, it's really all up to you along the way, without you we would have died a long time ago. Yu Fengqi said, although he was also very sad about Yuyue's departure, he understood what the most important thing was, and he could still distinguish which was more important.
"How are your injuries?" Pu Tiange asked with concern, if Yu Qing and the others were too injured, then rest for a while, now that they are close to the goal, it is not the time to be in a hurry.
Especially close to the place where the Tianyu Monument was born, there will definitely be a lot of Blood Lotus Clans nearby, if those Blood Lotus Clans who come here are large enough, then the number will be immeasurable. So the most important thing now is to find out the situation first, find out the approximate number of enemies, and the specific distribution location.
"Although the external injuries of several of us are very serious, the internal injuries are not serious, so don't worry, we will recover soon. Yu Qing motioned to Putian Ge to rest assured, the cultivator's physique was extraordinary, and the external injuries were healed faster than the internal injuries.
"That's good, our journey has reached the most critical moment, and the winner will soon be decided, do you understand?" Pu Tiange's tone was calm and natural, not passionate, but it gave people a heavy feeling.
"If we fail, each of us will die for it, so we have no way back. Putiange went on to say that he knew that he had to break the cauldron in order to increase his hopes of success.
"What I see in the eyes of each of you is that there is no shock, maybe this is a kind of belief, unshaken in the wind and rain, let Mount Tai collapse in front of you, and do not change color, you have truly grown!" Pu Tiange praised, he understood that at this time everyone's hearts were only peaceful, not panic and uneasiness, they changed a lot, and became more resilient.
After listening to these words of Pu Tiange, everyone's hearts were a little hot, the moment of the decisive battle was approaching, and whether they could defeat the Blood Lotus Clan and recover the Tianyu Monument would depend on themselves.
Soon, everyone continued to walk towards the depths of the Onizawa Forest, and then found a hidden place to rest, and when the injuries of Yuqing and the others were almost healed, they then marched to the depths of the Ghost Forest.
